Consent to arbitration involving an <br />additional person or entity shall not constitute consent to arbitration of any claim, dispute or other matter in question <br />not described in the written consent. <br />§ 8.3.4.3 The Owner and Architect grant to any person or entity made a party to an arbitration conducted under this <br />Section 8.3, whether by joinder or consolidation, the same rights of joinder and consolidation as the Owner and <br />Architect under this Agreement. <br />§ 8.4 The provisions of this Article 8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. <br />ARTICLE 9 TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION <br />§ 9.1 If the Owner fails to make payments to the Architect in accordance with this Agreement, such failure shall be <br />considered substantial nonperformance and cause for termination or, at the Architect’s option, cause for suspension <br />of performance of services under this Agreement.

In the event of a suspension of services, the <br />Architect shall have no liability to the Owner for delay or damage caused the Owner because of such suspension of <br />services. Before resuming services, the Owner shall pay the Architect all sums due prior to suspension and any <br />expenses incurred in the interruption and resumption of the Architect’s services. The Architect’s fees for the <br />remaining services and the time schedules shall be equitably adjusted. <br />§ 9.2 If the Owner suspends the Project, the Architect shall be compensated for services performed prior to notice of <br />such suspension.
