The parties are individually referred to as a “Party” and together as the “Parties.”

Recitals

A.On or about April 21, 2017, Clark/Lewis entered into a General Contractor / Construction Manager Agreement (“GC/CM Agreement”) with the WSCC, a King County public facilities district, for the construction of the Washington State Convention Center expansion project in Seattle (the “Project”).

B.Clark/Lewis engaged AB to provide and furnish labor, materials, equipment, and other services for the Project (the “Work”) and Clark/Lewis and AB executed a subcontract for the Work on or about March 7, 2018 (the “Subcontract”).

C.The AB Sureties issued Payment and Performance Bond Nos. 9196529/387007832, each in the penal sum of $81,399,250.00, on behalf of AB as principal, and Clark/Lewis as obligee (each, respectively, the “Payment Bond” and the “Performance Bond” and, collectively, the “Bonds”). Subsequent riders to the Bonds increased their respective penal sums to $119,238,976.00.

D.Clark/Lewis and AB each filed complaints against one another in King County Superior Court. The Court consolidated these actions into King County Superior Court Cause No. 22-2-19603-3 SEA (the “Litigation”). On or about January 12, 2023, Clark/Lewis amended its complaint in the Litigation and added the AB Sureties as defendants. On or about April 21, 2023, Clark/Lewis added WSCC as third-party defendants related to AB’s claims in the Litigation.

E.On or about December 19, 2024, trial commenced in the Litigation. On or about December 1, 2025, the Court issued Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law in the Litigation (the “FOF/COL”). The FOF/COL identified that AB owed Clark/Lewis $57,051,804.75 in damages based on the issues presented at trial and that the AB Sureties were jointly and severally liable with AB for such damages under the Performance Bond.

F.On or about December 19, 2025, the Parties filed a stipulated motion identifying a briefing schedule for (1) AB’s motion for reconsideration of the FOF/COL; (2) Clark/Lewis’s motion for prejudgment interest; and (3) Clark/Lewis’s and WSCC’s motions for attorneys’ fees and costs.

On or about February 23, 2026, the AB Sureties paid Clark/Lewis $57,783,318.93 to satisfy the Merits Judgment along with the post-judgment interest accrued through the date of payment.

H.On or about December 12, 2025, the Court entered an Order Regarding Sanctions that issued a monetary sanction of $4,811,640.00 against AB (the “Paragraph 97 Sum”) and reserved Clark/Lewis’s and WSCC’s rights to pursue costs and fees related to the Court’s Order.

2.Sanctions Settlement Amount. The Parties agree the sum of One Million Two Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($1,275,000.00) is a negotiated and agreed amount for Clark/Lewis’s costs and fees related to the Sanctions Order (the “C/L Sanctions Settlement Amount”) and that Two Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($225,000.00) is a negotiated and agreed amount for WSCC’s costs and fees related to the Sanctions Order (the “WSCC Sanctions Settlement Amount”).

The Parties agree that WSCC is holding certain funds related to Work AB completed during the Project including retainage (the “Owner-Held AB Retention”) but that the Court’s FOF/COL and Merits Judgment did not expressly address the Owner-Held AB Retention. AB and the AB Sureties agree that WSCC will keep the Owner-Held AB Retention, and WSCC agrees that it will not separately pursue a claim for interest, costs, fees or any other damages against Clark/Lewis, AB, or the AB Sureties. WSCC shall file a Satisfaction of Judgment related to the December 23, 2024 Judgment against AB, and WSCC will join a Stipulation and Order to Dismiss all claims, issues, disputes, and controversies related to the Litigation with prejudice, except (i) to the extent of the Parties’ reservation of rights related to the Sanctions Appeal and (ii) for the Ongoing Obligations identified in Paragraph 7.

The Parties and their attorneys, officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, boards, lenders, employees, consultants, representatives, agents, predecessors, successors, insurers, insureds, sureties, subcontractors, suppliers, assigns, subsidiaries, parent corporations, divisions, joint ventures and affiliated entities, both public and private, agree to mutual general releases and to forever discharge each other and each other’s attorneys, officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, boards, lenders, employees, consultants, representatives, agents, predecessors, successors, insurers, insureds, sureties, subcontractors, suppliers, assigns, subsidiaries, parent corporations, divisions, joint ventures and
