(e) Price Adjustment. If, after the contract date, (i) the Federal Government or any State or local govern- ment either imposes or increases (or removes an exemption with respect to) any direct tax or any tax directly applicable to the materials or components used in the manufacture or furnishing of the completed supplies or services covered by this contract, or (ii) the Federal Government or any State or local government refuses to accept the evidence of exemption, furnished under paragraph (d) hereof, with respect to any direct tax excluded from the contract price, or (iii) the Federal Government does not furnish a tax exemption certificate or other similar evidence of exemption with respect to any direct tax excluded from the contract price, and if under either (i), (ii), or (iii) the Contractor is obliged to and does pay or bear the burden of any such tax (and does not secure a refund thereof), the contract price shall be correspondingly increased, and if interest and penalties are incurred by reason of delay in payment of such tax on the instruction of the Contracting Officer, and such interest and penalties are legally imposed, the contract price shall be correspondingly increased. If, after the contract date, the Contractor is re- lieved in whole or in part from the payment or the burden of any direct tax included in the contract price, or any tax directly applicable to the materials or components used in the manufacture or furnishing of the completed supplies or services covered by this contract, the Contractor agrees promptly to notify the Contracting Officer of such relief, and the contract price shall be correspondingly decreased or the amount of such relief paid over to the Government.

If any tax or duty has been included in the contract price as adjusted under para- graph (e) of this clause, and if the Contractor is entitled to a refund or drawback by reason of the export or re- export of supplies covered by this contract, or of materials or components used in the manufacture or furnishing of the completed supplies or services covered by this contract, the Contractor agrees that he will promptly notify the Contracting Officer thereof and that the amount of any such refund or drawback obtained will be paid over to the Government or credited against amounts due from the Government under this contract; provided, however, that the Contractor shall not be required to apply for such refund or drawback unless so requested by the Contracting Officer. 7.
