GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. DEFINITIONS (ASPR 7-103.1 AFPI 7-403.1)
As used throughout this contract, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth
below:
(a) The term "Secretary" means the Secretary, the Under Secretary, or any Assistant Secre-
tary, or any Assistant Secretary of the Department, and the head or any assistant head of the
Federal agency; and the term "his duly authorized representative" means any person or persons
or board (other than the Contracting Officer) authorized to act for the Secretary.
(b) The term "Contracting Officer" means the person executing this contract on behalf of
the Government, and any other officer or civilian employee who is a properly designated Contract-
ing Officer; and the term includes, except as otherwise provided in this contract, the author-
ized representative of a Contracting Officer acting within the limits of his authority.
(c) Except as otherwise provided in this contract, the term "subcontracts" includes pur-
chase orders under this contract.
(d) (AFPI 7-303.1) The term "contract work" means all work to be performed under this con-
tract including any studies covering fundameptal, theoretical, or experimental investigations;
any extension of the investigative findings and theories of a scientific or technical nature into
practical application; any tangible items, hereinafter referred to as "supplies," furnished to
the Government; and any reports, data, computations, plans, drawings, and specifications with
respect to any of the foregoing.
The Contracting Officer may, at any time by a written order, make changes in or additions to
the drawings and specifications, issue additional instructions, require additional work within
the general scope of the contract, or change the place of delivery, method of shipment, or the
amount of Government-Furnished property. If any such change causes an increase or decrease in
the estimated cost of, or the time required for performance of this contract, or otherwise af-
fects any other provision of this contract, an equitable adjustment shall be made (i) in the
estimated cost or delivery schedule, or both, (ii) in the amount of any fixed fee to be paid to
the Contractor, and (iii) in such other provisions of the contract as may be so affected, and
the contract shall be modified in writing accordingly. Any claim by the Contractor for adjust-
ment under this clause must be asserted within sixty (60) 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. Failure to agree to any adjustment shall
be a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of the clause of this contract en-
titled "Disputes." However, nothing in this clause shall excuse the Contractor from proceeding
with the contract as changed.
3. LIMITATION OF COST (ASPR 7-203.3 AFPI 7-403.3)
(a) It is estimated that the total cost to the Government, exclusive of any fixed fee, for
the performance of this contract will not exceed the estimated cost set forth in the Schedule,
and the Contractor agrees to use its best efforts to perform the work specified in the Schedule
and all obligations under this contract within such estimated cost. If at any time the Contrac-
tor has reason to believe that the costs which it expects to incur in the performance of this
contract in the next succeeding thirty (30) days, when added to all cost previously incurred,
will exceed eighty-five percent (85%) of the estimated cost then set forth in the Schedule, or
if at any time, the Contractor has reason to believe that the total cost to the Government, ex-
clusive of any fixed fee, for the performance of this contract will be substantially greater or
less than the then estimated cost thereof, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer
in writing to that effect, giving its revised estimate of such total cost for-the performance of
this contract.
(b) The Government shall not be obligated to reimburse the Contractor for costs incurred in
excess of the estimated cost set forth in the Schedule and the Contractor shall not be obligated
to continue performance under the contract or to incur costs in excess of the estimated cost set
forth in the Schedule, unless and until the Contracting Officer shall have notified the Contrac-
tor in writing that such estimated cost has been increased and shall have specified in such no-
tice a revised estimated cost which shall thereupon constitute the estimated cost of performance
of this contract. When and to the extent that the estimated cost set forth in the Schedule has

46 0
been increased, any cost incurred by the Contractor in excess of such estimated cost prior to
the increase in estimated cost shall be allowable to the same extent as if such costs had been
incurred after such increase in estimated cost.
4. ALLOWABLE COST, FIXED FEE, AND PAYMENT (ASPR 7-402.3 AFPI 7-403.4)
(a) For the performance of this contract, the Government shall pay to the Contractor:
(i) the cost thereof (hereinafter referred to as "allowable cost") determined by the
Contracting Officer to be allowable in accordance with --
(A) Part 2 of Section XV of the Armed Services Procurement Regulation as in effect
on the date of this contract; and
(B) the terms of this contract; and
(ii) such fixed fee, if any, as may be provided for in the Schedule.
(b) Once each month (or at more frequent intervals, if approved by the Contracting Officer)
the Contractor may submit to an authorized representative of the C.O., in such form and reason-
able detail as such representative may require, an invoice or public voucher supported by a state-
ment of cost incurred by the Contractor in the performance of this contract and claimed to con-
stitute allowable cost.
(c) Promptly after receipt of each invoice or voucher the Government shall, subject to the
provisions of (d) below, make payment thereon as approved by the C.O. Payment of the fixed
fee, if any, shall be made to the Contractor as specified in the Schedule; provided, however,
that after payment of eighty-five percent (85%) of the fixed fee set forth in the Schedule,
further payment on account of the fixed fee shall be withheld until a reserve of either fifteen
percent (15%) of the total fixed fee, or one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), whichever is
less, shall have been set aside.
(d) At any time or times prior to final payment under this contract the Contracting Officer
may have invoices or vouchers and statements of cost audited. Each payment theretofore made
shall be subject to reduction for amounts included in the related invoice or voucher which are
found by the Contracting Officer on the basis of such audit, not to constitute allowable cost.
Any payment may be reduced for overpayments, or increased for underpayments, on preceding in-
voices or vouchers.
(e) On receipt and approval of the invoice or voucher designated by the Contractor as the
"completion invoice" or "completion voucher" and upon compliance by the Contractor with all the
provisions of this contract (including, without limitation, the provisions relating to patents
and the provisions of (f) below, the Government shall promptly pay to the Contractor any balance
of allowable cost, and any part of the fixed fee which has been withheld pursuant to (c) above
or otherwise not paid to the Contractor. The completion invoice or voucher shall be submitted
by the Contractor promptly following completion of the work under this contract but in no event
later than one (1) year (or such longer period as the Contractor Officer may in his discretion
approve in writing) from the date of such completion. -
(f) The Contractor agrees that any refunds,-rebates, credits, or other amounts (including
any interest thereon) accruing to or received by the Contractor or any assignee under this con-
tract shall be paid by the Contractor to the Government, to the extent that they are properly
allocable to costs for which the Contractor has been reimbursed by the Government under this
contract. Reasonable expenses incurred by the Contractor for the purpose of securing such re-
funds, rebates, credits, or other amounts shall be allowable costs hereunder when approved by
the Contracting Officer. Prior to final payment under this contract, the Contractor and each
assignee under this contract whose assignment is in effect at the time of final payment under
this contract shall execute and deliver:
(i) an assignment to the Government, in form and substance satisfactory to the Contracting
Officer, of refunds, rebates, credits, or other amounts (including any interest thereon) properly
allocable to costs for which the Contractor has been reimbursed by the Government under this con-
tract; and
(ii)' a release discharging the Government, its officers, agents, and employees from all
liabilities, obligations, and claims arising out of or under this contract, subject only to the
following exceptions --
(A) specified claims in stated amounts or in estimated amounts where the amounts are
not susceptible of exact statement by the Contractor;

(B) claims, together with reasonable expenses incidental thereto, based upon liabili-
ties of the Contractor to third parties arising out of the performance of this contract; pro-
vided that such claims are not known to the Contractor on the date of the execution of the re-
lease; and provided further that the Contractor gives notice of such claims in writing to the
Contracting Officer not more than six (6) years after the date of the release or the date of any
notice to the Contractor that the Government is prepared to make final payment, whichever is
earlier; and
(C) claims for reimbursement of costs (other than expenses of the Contractor by rea-
son of any idemnification of the Government against patent liability), including reasonable ex-
penses incidental thereto, incurred by the Contractor under the provisions of this contract re-
lating to patents.
(g) Any cost incurred by the Contractor under the terms of this contract which would consti-
tute allowable cost under the provisions of this clause shall be included in determining the
amount payable under this contract, notwithstanding any provisions contained in the specifications
or other documents incorporated in this contract by reference, designating services to be per-
formed or materials to be furnished by the Contractor at its expense or without cost to the
Government.
5. INSPECTION AND CORRECTION OF DEFECTS (AFPI 7-403.5)
(a) All work under this contract shall be subject to inspection and test by the Government,
to the extent practicable at all reasonable times and places including the period of performance,
and in any event prior to final acceptance. The Contractor shall provide and maintain an in-
spection system acceptable to the Government covering the work hereunder. The Government, through
any authorized representative, may inspect the plant or plants of the Contractor or of any of its
subcontractors engaged in the performance of this contract. If any inspection or test is made by
the Government on the premise of the Contractor or a subcontractor, the Contractor shall provide
and shall require subcontractors to provide all reasonable facilities and assistance for the
safety and convenience of the Government inspectors in the performance of their duties. All in-
spections and tests by the Government shall be performed in such a manner as will not unduly de-
lay the work. Final inspection and acceptance by the Government shall be made as promptly as
practicable after delivery. The time and place of delivery, final inspection, and acceptance
shall be as set forth in the Schedule.
(b) The Contractor warrants that the services rendered in the performance of this contract
will conform to the requirements of this contract and to high professional standards in the field,
and that any article delivered to the Government under this contract will conform to the require-
ments of this contract and will not be defective in material or workmanship.
(c) At any time during performance of this contract, but not later than six (6) months (or
such other period as may be provided in the schedule) after final acceptance, the Government may
require the Contractor to remedy by correction or replacement as directed by the Contracting Of-
ficer, any failure by the Contractor to comply with its obligations under paragraph (b) hereof.
Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (d) hereof, the cost of any such replacement or cor-
rection shall be included in "Allowable Cost" determined as provided in the clause of this con-
tract entitled "Allowable Cost, Fixed Fee and Payment," but no additional fee shall be payable
with respect thereto. Corrected articles shall not be tendered again for acceptance unless the
former tender and the requirement of correction is disclosed. If the Contractor fails to pro-
ceed with reasonable promptness to perform such replacement or correction, the Government (i)
may by contract or otherwise perform such replacement or correction and charge to the Contrac-
tor any increased cost occasioned the Government thereby, or may reduce any fixed fee payable
under this contract (or require repayment of any fixed fee theretofore paid) in such amount as
may be equitable under the circumstances; or (ii) in the case of articles not delivered, may
require the delivery of such articles and shall have the right to reduce any fixed fee payable
under this contract (or to require repayment of any fixed fee theretofore paid) in such amount
as may be equitable under the circumstances; or (iii) may terminate this contract for default as
provided in the clause of this contract entitled "Termination." Failure to agree on the amount
of any such increased cost to be charged to the Contractor or to such reduction in, or repayment
of, the fixed fee shall be a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of the
clause of this contract entitled "Disputes".
(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (c) hereof, the Government may at any time
require the contractor to remedy by correction or replacement, without cost to the Government,
any failure by the Contractor to comply with its obligations under paragraph (b) hereof, if such
failure is due to fraud, lack of good faith, or willful misconduct on the part of any of the con-
tractor's directors or officers, or on the part of any of its managers, superintendents, or other
equivalent representatives, who has supervision or direction of (i) all or substantially all of
the Contractor's business; or (ii) all or substantially all of the Contractor's operations at any

one plant or separate location in which this contract is being performed; or (iii) a separate
and complete major industrial operation in connection with the performance on this contract.

shall be deemed to include the selection of individual employees or the retention of, employees
after any of such supervisory personnel has reason to believe that such employees are habitually
careless or otherwise unqualified.
(e) Corrected articles tendered as replacements shall be subject to the provisions of this
clause in the same manner and to the same extent as supplies originally delivered under this con-
tact.
(f) The Contractor shall make its records of all inspection work available to the Government
during the performance of this contract and for such longer periods as may be specified in this
contract.

the time of delivery are defective in materials or workmanship or otherwise not in conformity
with the requirements of this contract.
(h) Except as otherwise provided in the schedule, the contractor's obligation to correct or
replace Government-furnished property (which is property in the possession of or acquired directly

claims for monies due or to become due the Contractor from the Government under this contract

Lending agency, and may thereafter be further assigned and reassigned to any such institution.
Any such assignment or reassignment shall cover all amounts payable under this contract and not
already paid, and shall not be made to more than one party, except that any such assignment or
reassignment may be made to one party as agent or trustee for two or more parties participating
in such financing. Notwithstanding any provision of this contract, payments to an assignee of
any monies due or to become due under this contract shall not, to the extent provided in said
Act, as amended, be subject to reduction or set-off.

ture for which reimbursement is claimed under the provisions of this contract. The Contractor's
accounting procedures and practices shall be subject to the approval of the Contracting Officer;
provided, however, that no material change will be required to be made in the Contractor's account-
ing procedures and practices if they conform to generally accepted accounting practices and if the
costs properly applicable to this contract are readily ascertainable therefrom.
(2) The Contractor agrees to make available at the office of the Contractor at all reason-
able times during the period set forth in subparagraph (4) below any of the records for inspection,
audit or reproduction by any authorized representative of the Department or of the Comptroller
General.

determines that his audit of the amounts reimbursed under this contract as transportation charges
will be made at a place other than the office of the Contractor, the Contractor agrees to deliver,
with the reimbursement voucher covering such charges or as may be otherwise specified within two
years after reimbursement of charges covered by any such voucher, to such representative as'may
be designated for that purpose through the Contracting Officer such documentary evidence in support
of transportation costs as may be required by the Comptroller General or any of his duly authorized
representatives.

the Government, the extent to which performance of work under the contract is terminated, and
the date upon which such termination becomes effective. If, after notice of termination of this
contract for default under (i) above, it is determined that the Contractor's failure to perform
or to make progress in performance is due to causes beyond, the control and without the fault or
negligence of the Contractor pursuant to the provisions of the clause of this contract relating
to excusable delays, the Notice of Termination shall be deemed to have been issued under (ii)
above, and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall in such event be governed ac-
cordingly.

ing Officer, the Contractor shall:
(i) stop work under. the contract on the date and to the extent specified in the Notice

except as may be necessary for completion of such portion of the work under the contract as is
not terminated;
(iii) terminate all orders and subcontracts to the extent that they relate to the per-
formance of work terminated by the Notice of Termination;
(iv) assign to the Government, in the manner and to the extent directed by the Contract-
ing Officer, all of the right, title, and interest of the Contractor under the orders or sub-
contracts so terminated, in which case the Government shall have the right, in its discretion,
to settle or pay any or all claims arising out of the termination of such orders and subcontracts;
(v) with the approval or ratification of the Contracting Officer, to the extent he may
require, which approval or ratification shall be final and conclusive for all purposes of this
clause, settle all outstanding liabilities and all claims arising out of such termination of
orders and subcontracts, the cost of which would be reimbursable in whole or in part, in accord-
ance with the provisions of this contract;
(vi) transfer title (to the extent that title has not already been transferred) and, in
the manner, to the extent, and at the times directed by the Contracting Officer, deliver to the

the price or prices directed or authorized by the Contracting Officer, any property of the types
referred to in (vi) above; provided, however, that the Contractor (A) shall not be required to
extend credit to any purchaser, and (B) may acquire any such property under the conditions pre-
scribed by and at a price or prices approved by the Contracting Officer; and provided further
that the proceeds of any such transfer or disposition shall be applied in reduction of any pay-
ments to be made by the Government to the Contractor under this contract or shall otherwise be

the Notice of Termination; and
(ix) take such action as may be necessary, or as the Contracting Officer may direct, for
the protection and preservation of the property related to this contract which is in the posses-
sion of Contractor in which the Government has or may acquire an interest. The Contractor shall
proceed immediately with the performance of the above obligations notwithstanding any delay in
determining or adjusting the amount of the fee, or any item of reimbursable cost, under this
clause. At any time after expiration of the plant clearance period, as defined in Section VIII,
Armed Services Procurement Regulation, as it may be amended from time to time, the Contractor
may submit to the Contracting Officer a list, certified as to quantity and quality, of any or all
items of termination inventory not previously disposed of, exclusive of items the disposition of

the effective date of termination, unless one~ or more extensions in writing are granted by the
Contracting Officer, upon request of the Contractor made in writing within such one year period
or authorized extension thereof. However, if the Contracting officer determines that the facts
justify such action, he may receive and act upon any such termination claim at any time after
such one year period or any extension thereof. Upon failure of the Contractor to submit its
termination claim within the time allowed, the Contracting Officer may, subject to any Settle-
ment Review Board approvals required by Section VIII of the Armed Services Procurement Regula-
tion in effect as of the date of execution of this contract, determine, on the basis of informa-
tion available to him, the amount, if any, due to the Contractor by reason of the termination
and shall thereupon pay to the Contractor the amount so determined.

amount.
(e) In the event of the failure of the Contractor and the Contracting Officer to agree in
whole or in part, as provided in paragraph (d), as to the amounts with respect to costs and fee,

continue for a reasonable time thereafter with the approval of or as directed by the Contracting
Officer; provided, however, that the Contractor shall proceed as rapidly as practicable to dis-
continue such costs;
(B) there shall be included therein so far as not included under (A) above, the cost
of settling and paying claims arising out of the termination of work under subcontracts or orders,
as provided in paragraph (b)(v) above, which are properly chargeable to the terminated portion
of the contract;
(C) there shall be included therein the reasonable costs of settlement, including
accounting, legal, clerical, and other expenses, reasonably necessary for the preparation of
settlement claims and supporting data with respect to the terminated portion of the contract
and for the termination and settlement of subcontracts thereunder, together with reasonable

(D) there shall be included therein a portion of the fee payable under the contract
determined as follows --
(I) in the event of the termination of this contract for the convenience of the Gov-
ernment and not for the default of the Contractor, there shall be paid a percentage of the fee
equivalent to the percentage of the completion of work contemplated by the contract, less fee
payments previously made hereunder; or
(II) in the event of the termination of this contract for the default of the Contrac-
tor, the total fee payable shall be such proportionate part of the fee (or,. if this contract
calls for articles of different types, of such part of the fee as is reasonably allocable to the

type of article under consideration) as the total number of articles delivered to and accepted
by the Government bears to the total number of articles of a like kind called for by this con-
tract; if the amount determined under this subparagraph (1) is less than the total payment there-
tofore made to the Contractor, the Contractor shall repay to the Government the excess amount; or
(ii) if the settlement includes only the fee, the amount thereof will be determined in
accordance with subparagraph (i)(D) above.
(f) The Contractor shall have the right of appeal under the clause of this contract entitled
"Disputes," from any determination made by the Contracting Officer under paragraphs (c) or (e)
above, except that if the Contractor has failed to submit its claim within the time provided in
paragraph (c) above and has failed to request extension of such time, it shall have no such right
of appeal. In any case where the Contracting Officer has made a determination of the amount due
under paragraph (c) or (e) above, the Government shall pay to the Contractor the following:. (1)
if there is no right of appeal hereunder or if no timely appeal has been taken, the amount so,'
determined by the Contracting Officer, or (ii) if an appeal has been taken, the amount finally

(i) all unliquidated advance or other payments theretofore made to the Contractor, applicable to
the terminated portion of this contract, (ii) any claim which the Government may have against
the Contractor in connection with this contract, and (iii) the agreed price for, or the proceeds
of sale of, any materials, supplies, or other things acquired by the Contractor or sold pur-
suant to the provisions of this clause and not otherwise recovered by or credited to the Govern-
ment.
(h) In the event of a partial termination, the portion of the fee which is payable with
respect to the work under the continued portion of the contract shall be equitably adjusted by
agreement between the Contractor and the Contracting Officer, and such adjustment shall be evi-
denced by an amendment to this contract.
(i) The Government may from time to time,',unde such terms and conditions as it may pre-
scribe, make partial payments and payments on accoupt against costs incurred by the Contractor
in connection with the terminated portion of the.cgnfact whenever in the opinion of the Con-
tracting Officer the aggregate of such payment"s shill be within the amount to which the Contrac-
tor will be entitled hereunder. If the total of such payments is in excess of the amount final-
ly determined to be due under this clause, such excess shall be payable by the Contractor to the
Government upon demand, together with interest computed at the rate of 6 percent per annitm, for
the period from the date such excess payment is received by the Contractor to the date on which
such excess is repaid to the Government; provided, however, that no interest shall be charged
with respect to any such excess payment attributable to a reduction in the Contractor's claim
by reason of retention or other disposition of termination inventory until ten days after the
date of such retention or disposition, or such later date as determined by the Contracting Of-
ficer by reason of the circumstances.
(j) The provisions of this clause relating to the fee shall be inapplicable if this contract
does not provide for payment of a fee.
Except with respect to defaults of subcontractors, the Contractor shall not be in default
by reason of any failure in performance of this contract in accordance with its terms (includ-
ing any failure by the Contractor to make progress in the prosecution of the work hereunder which
endangers such performance) if such failure arises out of causes beyond the control and without
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 Government in either its sovereign or contrac-
tual 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 con-
trol and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor. If the failure to perform is caused
by the failure of a subcontractor to perform or make progress, and if such failure arises out
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 deemed to be in default, unless (i) the
supplies or services to be furnished by the subcontractor were obtainable from other sources, (ii)
the Contracting Officer shall have ordered the Contractor in writing to procure such supplies or
services from such other sources, and (iii) the Contractor shall have failed to comply reasonably
with such order. Upon request of the Contractor, the Contracting Officer shall ascertain the facts
and extent of such failure and, if he shall determine that any failure to perform was occasioned by
any one or more of the said causes, the delivery schedule shall be revised accordingly, subject to
the rights of the Government under the clause hereof entitled "Termination."

shall, upon written request of the Contracting Officer, convey to the Government the Contractor's
entire right, title, and interest in each Subject Invention in each foreign country in which an
application has not been filed within the time above specified, subject to the reservation of
a non-exclusive and royalty-free license to the Contractor together with the right of the Con-

tractor shall have corrected such failures either ten percent (10%) of the amount of this con-
tract, as from time to time amended, or five thousand dollars ($5,000), whichever is less.

After payment of eighty percent (80%) of the amount of this contract, as from time to time amend-
ed, payment shall be withheld until a reserve of either ten percent (10%) of such amount, or
five thousand dollars ($5,000), whichever is less, shall have been set aside, such reserve or
balance thereof to be retained until the Contractor shall have furnished to the Contracting Of-
ficer:
(1) the final report required by (c) (iii) above;
(ii) written disclosures for all Subject Inventions required by (c)(i) above which are
shown to be due in accordance with interim reports delivered under (c)(ii) above or in accord-
ance with such final reports or are otherwise known to be unreported; and
(iii) the information as to any subcontractor required by (h) below. The maximum amount
which may be withheld under this paragraph (f) shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the amount
of this contract or five thousand dollars ($5,000), whichever is less, and no amount shall be
withheld under this paragraph (f) when the amount specified by this paragraph (f) is being with-
held under other provisions of this contract. The withholding of any amount or subsequent pay-
ment thereof'to the Contractor shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights accruing to the
Government under this contract. This paragraph (f) shall not be construed as requiring the Con-
tractor to withhold any amounts from a subcontractor to enforce compliance with the patent pro-
visions of a subcontract.
(g) The Contractor shall exert all reasonable effort in negotiating for the inclusion of a
patent rights clause containing all the provisions of this Patent Rights clause except provisions
(f) and (i) in any subcontract hereunder of three thousand dollars ($3,000) or more, having ex-
perimental, developmental, or research work as one of its purposes. In the event of refusal by
a subcontractor to accept such a patent rights clause, the Contractor shall not proceed with
the subcontract without written authorization of the Contracting Officer or unless there has
been a waiver of the requirement as hereinafter provided. The Contractor, if unable to comply
with the requirement that such a patent rights clause be included in a subcontract after ex-
erting all reasonable effort to do so, may submit to the Contracting Officer a written request
for waiver or modification of such requirement. If, within thirty-five (35) days after the
receipt of such request, the Contracting Officer does not mail; or otherwise furnish the Contrac-
tor written denial of such request or notification that the Government requests the Contractor's
cooperation with the Government, which the Contractor agrees to provide, in negotiating with
the subcontractor for the acceptance of a suitable patent rights clause, the requirement shall
be deemed to have been waived by the Contracting Officer as. to all patent rights provisions
with respect to Subject Inventions, except such provisions, if any, relating to the production
or utilization of special nuclear material or atomic energy. Such request shall specifically
state that the Contractor has used all reasonable effort to comply with said requirement and
shall cite the waiver provision hereinabove set forth. The Contractor is not required when
negotiating with a subcontractor, to obtain in behalf of the Government any rights in Subject
Inventions other than as provided herein. However, the Contractor is not precluded from sep-
arately negotiating with a subcontractor for rights in Subject Inventions for the Contractor's
own behalf, but any costs so incurred shall not be considered as an allowable charge or cost
under this contract. Reports, instruments, and other information required, to be furnished by a
subcontractor to the Contracting Officer under the provisions of such a patent rights clause
in a subcontract hereunder may, upon mutual consent of the Contractor and the subcontractor (or
by direction of the Contracting Officer) be furnished to the Contractor for transmission to the
Contracting Officer.
(h) The Contractor shall, at the earliest practicable date, notify the Contracting Officer
in writing of any.subcontract containing one or more patent rights clauses, furnish the Con-
tracting Officer a copy of each of such clauses; and notify the Contracting Officer when such
subcontract is completed. It is understood that with respect to any subcontract clause granting
rights to the Government in Subject Inventions, the Government is a third party beneficiary;
and the Contractor hereby assigns to the Government all the rights that the Contractor would
have to enforce the subcontractor's obligations for the benefit of the Government with respect
to Subject Inventions. If there are no subcontracts containing patent rights clauses, a negative
report is required. The Contractor shall not be obligated to enforce the agreements of any
subcontractor hereunder relating to the obligations of the subcontractor to the Government in
regard to Subject Inventions.
(i) When the Contractor shows that it has been delayed in the performance of this con-
tract by reason of the Contractor's inability to obtain, in accordance with the requirements
of (g) above, the prescribed or other authorized suitable patent rights clause from a qualified
subcontractor for any item or service required under this contract for which the Contractor it-
self does not have available facilities or qualified personnel, the Contractor's delivery dates
shall be extended for a period of time equal to the duration of such delay. Upon request of the
Contractor, the Contracting Officer shall determine to what extent if any, an additional exten-
sion of the delivery dates and increase in contract prices based upon additional costs incurred

(j) The Contractor recognizes that the Government, or a foreign government with funds
derived through the Mutual Security Program or otherwise through the United States Government,
may contract for property or services with respect to which the vendor may be liable to the Con-
tractor for royalties for the use of a Subject Invention on account of such a contract. The Con-
tractor further recognizes that it is the policy of the Government not to pay in connection with
its contracts, or to allow to be paid in connection with contracts made with funds derived through
the Mutual Security Program or otherwise through the United States Government, charges for use of
patents in which the Government holds a royalty-free license. In recognition of this policy,
the Contractor agrees to participate in and make appropriate arrangements for the exclusion of
such charges from such contracts or for the refund of amounts received by the Contractor with
respect to any such charges not so excluded. LRev. No. 52, 3/15/60]

the terms of this contract, the property described in the Schedule or specifications, together
with such related data and information as the Contractor may request and as may reasonably be
required for the intended use of such property (hereinafter referred to as "Government-furnished
Property"). The delivery or performance dates for the supplies or services to be furnished by
the Contractor under this contract are based upon, the expectation that Government-furnished
Property suitable for use will be delivered to the Contractor at the times stated in the Schedule
or, if not so stated, in sufficient time to enable the Contractor to meet such delivery or per-
formance dates. In the event that Government-furnished Property is not delivered to the Contrac-
tor by such time or times, the Contracting Officer shall, upon timely written request made by the
Contractor, make a determination of the delay occasioned the Contractor and shall equitably ad-
just the estimated cost, fixed fee, or delivery or performance dates, or all of them, and any
other contractual provisions affected by such delay, in accordance with the procedures provided
for in the clause of this contract entitled "Changes." In the event that Government-furnished
Property is received by the Contractor in a condition not suitable for the intended use, the Con-
tractor shall, upon receipt thereof notify the Contracting Officer of such fact and, as directed
by the Contracting Officer, either (i) return such property at the Government's expense or other-
wise dispose of the property or (ii) effect repairs or modifications. Upon completion of (i)
or (ii) above, the Contracting Officer upon written request of the Contractor shall equitably ad-
just the estimated cost, fixed fee, or delivery or performance dates, or all of them, and any
other contractual provision affected by the return or disposition, or the repair or modifica-
tion, in accordance with the procedures provided for in the clause of this contract entitled
"Changes." The foregoing provisions for adjustment are exclusive and the Government shall not
be liable to suit for breach of contract by reason of any delay in delivery of Government-fur-
nished Property or delivery of such property in a condition not suitable for its intended use.
(b) Title to all property furnished by the Government shall remain in the Government.
Title to all property purchased by the Contractor, for the cost of which the Contractor is en-
titled to be reimbursed as a direct item of cost under this contract, shall pass to and vest in
the Government upon delivery of such property by the vendor. Title to other property, the cost
of which is reimbursable to the Contractor under this contract, shall pass to and vest in the
Government upon (i) issuance for use of such property in the performance of this contract, or
(ii) commencement of processing or use of such property in the performance of this contract,
or (iii) reimbursement of the cost thereof by the Government, in whole or in the percentage
prevailing by reason of the clause of the contract entitled "Allowable Cost, Fixed. Fee and Pay-
ment," whichever occurs first. All Government-furnished Property, together with all property
acquired by the Contractor title to which vests in the Government under this paragraph, are
subject to the provisions of this clause and are hereinafter collectively referred. to as "Gov-
ernment Property." LRev. No. 33, 5/14/58]
(c) Title to the Government Property shall not be affected by the incorporation or attach-
ment thereof to any property not owned by the Government, nor shall such Government Property,
or any part thereof, be or become a fixture or lose its identity as personalty by reason of af-
fixation to any realty. The Contractor shall comply with the provisions of the "Manual for
Control of Government Property in Possession of Contractors" (Appendix B, Armed Services Pro-
curement Regulation), as in effect on the date of the contract, which Manual is hereby incor-
porated by reference and made a part of this contract. LRev. No. 33, 5/14/58.7

Contractor shall take all reasonable steps to comply with all appropriate directions or in-
structions which the Contracting Officer may prescribe as reasonably necessary for the protection
of Government property.
(f)(i) The Contractor shall not be liable for any loss of or damage to the Government prop-
erty, or for expenses incidental to such loss or damage, except that the Contractor shall be
responsible for any such loss or damage (including expenses incidental thereto) (A) which re-
sults from willful misconduct or lack of good faith on the part of any of the Contractor's di-
rectors or officers, or on the part of any of its managers, superintendents, or other equivalent
representatives, who has supervision or direction of (I) all or substantially all of the Con-
tractor's business, or (II) all or substantially all of the Contractor's operations at any one
plant or separate location in which this contract is being performed, or (III) a separate and
complete major industrial operation in connection with the performance of this contract; or (B)
which results from a failure on the part of the Contractor, due to the willful misconduct or
lack of good faith on the part of any of its directors, officers, or other representatives
mentioned in subparagraph (A) above, (I) to maintain and administer, in accordance with sound
industrial practice, the program for maintenance, repair, protection and preservation of Gov-
ernment property as required by paragraph (e) hereof, or (II) to take all reasonable steps to

hereof; or (C) for which the Contractor is otherwise responsible under the express terms of
the clause or clauses designated in the Schedule; or (D) which results from a risk expressly
required to be insured under this contract, but only to the extent of the insurance so required
to be procured and maintained, or to the extent of insurance actually procured and maintained,
whichever is greater; or (E) which results from a risk which is in fact covered by insurance
or for which the Contractor is otherwise reimbursed, but only to the extent of such insurance
or reimbursement; provided that, if more than one of the above exceptions shall be applicable,'
in any case, the Contractor's liability under any one exception shall not be limited by any
other exception. This clause shall not be construed as relieving a subcontractor from liability
for loss or destruction of or damage to Government property in its possession or control, ex-
cept to the extent that the subcontract, with the prior approval of the Contracting Officer, may
provide for the relief of the subcontractor from such liability In the absence of such approv-
al, the subcontract shall contain appropriate provisions requiring the return of all Government
property in as good condition as when received, except for reasonable wear and tear or for the
utilization of the property in accordance with the provisions of the prime contract.
(ii) The Contractor shall not be reimbursed for, and shall not include as an item of
overhead, the cost of insurance, or any provision for a reserve, covering the risk of loss of
or damage to the Government property, except to the extent that the Government may have required
the Contractor to carry such insurance under any other provision of this contract.
(iii) Upon the happening of loss or destruction of or damage to the Government Property,
the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer thereof, and shall communicate with the
Loss and Salvage Organization, if any, now or hereafter designated by the Contracting Officer,
and with the assistance of the Loss and Salvage Organization so designated (unless the Contract-
ing Officer has designated that no such organization be employed), shall take all reasonable
steps to protect the Government Property from further damage, separate the damaged and undam-
aged Government Property, put all the Government Property in the best possible order, and fur-
nish to the Contracting Officer a statement of (A) the lost, destroyed and damaged Government
Property, (B) the time and origin of the loss, destruction or damage, (C) all known interests
in commingled property of which the Government Property is a part, and (D) the insurance, if
any, covering any part of or interest in such commingled property. The Contractor shall make
repairs and renovations of the damaged Government Property or take such other action, as the
Contracting Officer directs.
(iv) In the event the Contractor is indemnified, reimbursed, or otherwise compensated
for any loss or destruction of or damage to the Government Property, it shall use the proceeds
to repair, renovate or replace the Government Property involved, or shall credit such procceds
against the cost of the work covered by the contract, or shall otherwise reimburse the Govern-
ment, as directed by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall do nothing to prejudice the
Government's right to recover against third parties for any such lose, destruction or damage
and, upon the request of the Contracting Officer, shall, at the Government's expense, furnish
to the Government all reasonable assistance and cooperation (including the prosecution of suit
and the execution of instruments of assignment in favor of the Government) in obtaining recov-
ery. In addition, where the subcontractor has not been relieved from liability for any loss or
destruction of or damage to Government property, the Contractor shall enforce the liability of
the subcontractor for such loss or destruction of or damage to the Government property for the
benefit of the Government.

the Government property is located.
(h) The Government Property shall remain in the possession of the Contractor for such peri-
od of time as is required for the performance of this contract unless the Contracting Officer
determines that the interests of the Government require removal of such property. In such case
the Contractor shall promptly take such action as the Contracting Officer may direct with respect
to the removal and shipping of Government Property. In any such instance, the contract may
be amended to accomplish an equitable adjustment in the terms and provisions thereof.
(i) Upon the completion of this contract, or at such earlier dates as may be fixed by the
Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall submit to the Contracting Officer in a form acceptable
to him, inventory schedules covering all items of the Government Property not consumed in the
performance of this contract or not theretofore delivered to the Government, and shall deliver
or make such other disposal of such Government property as may be directed or authorized by the
Contracting Officer. The net proceeds of any such disposal shall be credited to the cost of the
work covered by the contract or shall be paid in such manner as the Contracting Officer may di-
rect. The foregoing provisions shall apply to scrap from Government Property provided, however,
that the Contracting Officer may authorize or direct the Contractor to omit from such inventory
schedules any scrap consisting of cutting and processing waste, such as chips, cuttings, borings,
turnings, short ends, circles, trimmings, clippings, and remnants, and to dispose of such scrap
in accordance with the Contractor's normal practice and account therefor as a part of general
overhead or other reimbursable cost in accordance with the Contractor's established accounting
procedures.

pursuant to this clause shall be in writing.
As provided in paragraph (i) of the above clause, the Contracting Officer may, subject
to Departmental procedures, authorize or approve use of the Contractor's established scrap dis-
posal and accounting procedures whenever the amount and recoverable value of scrap from the
Government property are relatively minor and the Contractor's established procedures for accu-
mulating and disposing of scrap and crediting the proceeds thereof to general overhead or other
general cost will permit the Government to share equitably in such scrap recovery through a
reduction of overhead or other cost factor affecting reimbursement under the contract.

sated by insurance or otherwise, arising out of the performance of this contract, whether or
not caused by the negligence of the Contractor, its agents,-servants or employees, provided
such liabilities are represented by final judgments or by settlements approved in writing by
the Government, and expenses incidental to such liabilities, except liabilities (I) for which the

suit or action filed, or prompt notice of any claim made, against the Contractor arising out of
the performance of this contract, the cost and expense of which may be reimbursable to the Con-

which the amount claimed exceeds the amount of coverage. The Contractor shall furnish immediate-
ly to the Government copies of all pertinent papers received by the Contractor. If the amount
of the liability claimed exceeds the amount of coverage, the Contractor shall authorize repre-
sentatives of the Government to collaborate with counsel for the insurance carrier, if any, in

tractor shall, if required by the Government, authorize representatives of the Government to
settle or defend any such claim and to represent the Contractor in or take charge of any litiga-
tion in connection therewith; provided, however, that the Contractor may, at its own expense, be
associated with the represents ives of the Government in the settlement or defense of any such
claim or litigation.
