As used throughout this contract, the following
terms shall have the meanings set forth below:
(a) The term "head of the agency" or "Secre-
tary" means the Secretary, the Under Secretary,
any Assistant Secretary, or any other head or as-
sistant head of the executive or military department
or other Federal agency; and the term "his duly
authorized representative" means any person or
persons or board (other than the Contracting Offi-
cer) authorized to ac;t for the head of the agency
or the Secretary.
(b) The term "Co:ntracting Officer" means the
person executing this contract on behalf of the
Government, and any other officer or civilian em-
ployee who is a properly designated Contracting
Officer; and the term includes, except as otherwise
provided in this contract, the authorized repre-
sentative of a Contracting Officer acting within
the limits of his authority.
(c) Except as otherwise provided in this con-
tract, the term "subcontracts" includes purchase
orders under this contract.
2. CHANGES (ASPR 7-103.2) (Jan. 1958)
The Contracting Officer may at any time, by a
written order, and without notice to the sureties,
make changes, within the general scope of this
contract, in any one or more of the following: (i)
Drawings, designs, or specifications, where the sup-
plies to be furnished are to be specially manufac-
tured for the Government in accordance therewith;
(ii) method of shipment or packing; and (iii) place
of delivery. If any such change causes an increase
or decrease in the cost of, or the time required for
the performance of any part of the work under
this contract, whethE:r changed or not changed by
any such order, an equitable adjustmnt shall be
made in the contract price or delivery schedule, or
both, and the contract shall be modified in writing
accordingly. Any claim by the Contractor for ad-
justment under this clause must be asserted within
30 days from the date of receipt by the Contractor
of the notification of change: Provided, however,
That the Contracting Officer, if he decides that the
facts justify such action, may receive and act upon
any such claim asserted at any time prior to final
payment under this contract. Where the cost of
property made obsolete or excess as a result of a
change is included in the Contractor's claim for
adjustment, the Contracting Officer shall have the
right to prescribe the manner of disposition of such
property. Failure to agree to any adjustment shall
be a dispute concerning a question of fact within
the meaning of the clause of this contract entitled
":Disputes." However, nothing in this clause shall
excuse the Contractor from proceeding with the
contract as changed. [Rev. No. 28, 1/28/58; Rev.
No. 30, 3/17/58.]
3. EXTRAS (ASPR 7-103.3) (July 1949)

in writing by the Contracting Officer.
4. VARIATION IN QUANTITY (ASPR 7-103.4)
(duly 1949)
No variation in the quantity of any item called
for by this contract will be accepted unless such
variation has been caused by conditions of loading,
shipping, or packing, or allowances in manufactur-
ing processes, and then only to the extent, if any,
specified elsewhere in this contract.
5. INSPECTION (.ASPR 7-103.5) (May 1958)

clause includes without limitation raw materials,
components, intermediate assemblies, and end prod-

33, 5/14/58.]
(b) In case any supplies or lots of supplies are
defective in material or workmanship or otherwise

tion. Supplies or lots of supplies which have been
rejected or required to be corrected shall be removed
or, if permitted or required by the Contracting Offi-
cer, corrected in ;place by and at the expense of
the Contractor promptly after notice, and shall not
thereafter be tendered for acceptance unless the
former rejection or requirement of correction is
disclosed. If the Contractor fails promptly to re-
move such supplies or lots of supplies which are
required to be removed, or promptly to replace or
correct such supplies or lots of supplies, the Gov-
ernment either (i) may key contract or otherwise
replace or correct such supplies and charge to the
Contractor the cost occasioned the Government
thereby, or (ii) may terminate this contract for
default as provided in thE; clause of this contract
entitled "Default." Unless the Contractor corrects
or replaces such supplies within the delivery sched-
ule, the Contracting Officer may require the delivery
of such supplies at a reduction in price which is
equitable under the circumstances. Failure to agree
to such reduction of price shall be a dispute con-

cerning a question of fact within the meaning of
the clause of this contract entitled "Disputes."
[Rev. No. 28, 1/28/58.]
(c) If any inspection or test is made by the Gov-
ernment on the premises of the Contractor or a
subcontractor, the Contractor without additional
charge shall provide all reasonable facilities and
assistance for the safety and convenience of the
Government inspectors in the performance of their
duties. If Government inspection or test is made
at a point other than the premises of the Con-
tractor or a subcontractor, it shall be at the ex-
pense of the Government except as otherwise pro-
vided in this contract: Provided, That in case of
rejection the Government shall not be liable for
any reduction in value of samples used in connec-
tion with such inspection or test. All inspections
and tests by the Government shall be performed
in_such a manner as not to unduly delay the work.
The Government reserves the right to charge to the
Contractor any additional cost of Government in-
spection and test when supplies are not ready at
the time such inspection and test is requested by
the Contractor or when reinspection or retest is
necessitated by prior rejection. Acceptance or re-
jection of the supplies shall be made as promptly
as practicable after delivery, except as otherwise
provided in this contract; but failure to inspect and
accept or reject supplies shall neither relieve the
Contractor from responsibility for such supplies
as are not in accordance with the contract require-
ments nor impose liability on the Government
therefor. [Rev. No. 28, 1/28/58.]
(d) The inspection and test by the Government
of any supplies or lots thereof does not relieve the
Contractor from any responsibillity regarding de-
fects or other failures to meet the contract require-
ments which may be discovered prior to acceptance.
Except as otherwise provided in this contract, ac-
ceptance shall be conclusive except as regards latent
defects, fraud, or such gross mistakes as amount
to fraud.
(e) The Contractor shall provide and maintain
an inspection system acceptable to the Government
covering the supplies hereunder. Records of all in-
spection work by the Contractor shall be kept com-
plete and available to the Government during the
performance of this contract and for such longer
period as may be specified elsewhere in this con-
tract.

employment. [Rev. No. 28, 1/28/58.]

ment would equal or exceed either $1,000 or 50 per-

or services similar to those so terminated, and the
Contractor shall be liable to the Government for
any excess costs for such similar supplies or serv-
ices: Provided, That the Contractor shall continue
the performance of this contract to the extent not
terminated under the provisions of this clause.
(c) Except with respect to defaults of subcon-
tractors, the Contractor shall not be liable for any
excess costs if the failure to perform the contract
arises out of causes beyond the control and with-
out the fault or negligence of the Contractor. Such
causes may include, but are not restricted to, acts
of God or of the public enemy, acts of the Govern-
ment in either its sovereign or contractual capacity,
fires, floods, epidemics, 'quarantine restrictions,
strikes, freight embargoes':, and unusually severe
weather; but in every case the failure to perform
must be beyond the control and without the fault
or negligence of the Contractor. If the failure to
perform is caused by the default of a subcontractor,
and if such default arises qut of causes beyond the
control of both the Contractor and subcontractor,
and without the fault or :negligence of either of
them, the Contractor shall not be liable for any
excess costs for failure to perform, unless the sup-
plies or services to be furnished by the subcon-
tractor were obtainable from other sources in suffi-
cient time to permit the Contractor to meet the re-
quired delivery schedule.
(d) If this contract is terminated as provided in
paragraph (a) of this clause, the Government, in
addition to any other rights provided in this clause,
may require the Contractor! to transfer title and de-
liver to the Government, ; in the manner and to
the extent directed by the Contracting Officer, (i)
any completed supplies, e,nd (ii) such partially
completed supplies and materials, parts, tools, dies,
jigs, fixtures, plans, drawings, information, and
contract rights (hereinafter called "manufacturing
materials") as the Contractor has specifically pro-
duced or specifically acquired for the performance
of such part of this contract as has been termi-
nated; and the Contractor; shall, upon direction of
the Contracting Officer, protect and preserve prop-
erty in possession of the contractor in which the
Government has an interest. Payment for com-
pleted supplies delivered to and accepted by the
Government shall be at the contract price. Pay-
ment for manufacturing materials delivered to and
accepted by the Government and for the protection
and preservation of property shall be in an amount
agreed upon by the Contractor and the Contracting
Officer; failure to agree to such amount shall be
a dispute concerning a quCstion of fact within the
meaning of the clause of this contract entitled "Dis-
putes." The Governmenti may withhold from
amounts otherwise due the Contractor for such
completed supplies or mmanufacturing materials
such sum as the Contracting Officer determines to
be necessary to protect the Government against
loss because of outstanding liens or claims of for-
mer lien holders.
(e) If, after notice of termination of this contract
under the provisions of this clause, it is determined
for any reason that the Contractor was not in de-
fault under the provisions of this clause, or that the
default was excusable under the provisions of this
clause, the rights and of#ligations of the parties
shall, if the contract contains a clause providing
for termination for convenience of the Government,
be the same as if the no:,tice of termination had
been issued pursuant to such clause.
