as improperly requiring a reply to an answer which is not a recognized pleading
under the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure. To the extent a reply is
necessary, the averments of Plaintiffs Complaint are incorporated herein and the
allegations of Defendant's Answer are denied as if they were set forth at length
herein and denied seriatim.
46. It is denied that Plaintiff has waived its claims by executing affidavits
and/or releases ofliens or otherwise. On the contrary, any such affidavits and or
releases ofliens were not intended to release Plaintiffs claims, it being understood

and agreed that such affidavits/releases were required by Defendant in order to
obtain interim payments from its customers and not to prevent Plaintiff from
obtaining payment on the matters averred in Plaintiffs Complaint.
47. It is denied that Plaintiff is estopped from claiming the amounts
sought in its Complaint by executing affidavits and/or releases of liens. On the
contrary, any such affidavits and or releases ofliens were not intended to release

required by Defendant in order to obtain interim payments from its customers and
not to prevent Plaintiff from obtaining payment on the matters averred in Plaintiffs
Complaint.
48. It is denied that any additional or new work was done under any
written or formal "change order" in accordance with contracts and paid by
Defendant. On the contrary, Plaintiffs claims arose in the manner as averred in
Plaintiffs Complaint, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference
thereto.
49. Admitted.
50. It is denied that the parties reached an accord and that Defendant paid

51. It is denied that Defendant paid and Plaintiff received any payment of
the nature averred by Defendant. On the contrary, the denials and averments
contained in paragraph 50 hereinabove are incorporated herein by reference
thereto.
52. It is denied that Defendant paid Plaintiff as averred. On the contrary,
the amounts claimed are due and owing as averred in Plaintiffs Complaint, all of
which are incorporated herein by reference thereto.
53. It is denied that Plaintiff failed to perform under its various contracts
and it is further denied that Defendant is not obligated to Plaintiff. On the
contrary, Plaintiff fully performed all its obligations to Defendant as averred in
Plaintiffs Complaint, which averments are incorporated herein and in each
subparagraph.
a. It is denied that Plaintiff failed to perform in a timely
manner on the Middletown project. On the contrary, Plaintifffully
performed its obligations in timely manner and in coordination with
other trades and contractors.
b. It is denied that Plaintiff was unable to secure materials and

c. It is denied that Plaintiff failed to complete its work in a good
and workmanlike manner. On the contrary, all work was performed in
a good and workmanlike manner and accepted by Defendant as such.
d. It is denied that Plaintiff failed to complete its work in all
aspects. On the contrary, all work was completed as required and
accepted by Defendant as such.
e. It is denied that Plaintiff failed to supervise its work or the work
of other subcontractors on the Middletown project and that remedial
work was necessitated as a result thereof. Inasmuch as Defendant has
failed to plead facts supporting the allegations of remedial work,
f. It is denied that Plaintiff executed a sworn statement which in
any way prevents or estops it from making its claim against Defendant for
the balance owned on the Washington Project. On the contrary, any sworn
statement executed by Plaintiff related only to the matters for which it
received actual payment; the claim in Plaintiffs Complaint is for work
performed and for which payment was not received. It is admitted that
Plaintiff did not pay all of the amounts due Hertz Equipment Rental for the
Washington Project; however, the reason therefor is Defendant's failure to
pay Plaintiff for the same as averred in Plaintiffs Complaint.
