Additional Information/Notes

NOTE A: FIXED SHIP REPAIR LABOR AND MATERIAL HANDLING RATES FOR OVER AND ABOVE (GROWTH) WORK

1. The Contractor's fixed, fully burdened ship repair labor rate set forth in Attachment J-3 will be used for negotiating and settling over and above work to be performed under this Contract. The fully burdened labor rate and material rate identified in Attachment J-3 (Contractor Price Breakdown).

The Contractor agrees that the number of hours included in its price proposal submitted in response to Contract Change Order (CCO), shall include only direct production hours. For these purposes, direct production hours are for skilled labor at the journeyman level expended in direct production including but not limited to the following functions:

Abrasive cleaning/blasting Fire Watch Welding Burning Brazing Carpentry Machinists (inside and outside) Electrical Work Electronic Work Engineering Design Support Lagging Ship-fitting Boiler-making Painting Sheet-metal Work Pipefitting Rigging General Labor Staging/Scaffolding Diesel Mechanics

2. The fully burdened ship repair labor rate proposed by the contractor and identified in Attachment J-3, includes all costs associated with support functions (whether charged directly or indirectly by the Contractor's accounting systems) provided in support of the direct production functions listed in Note A paragraph 1 above. Support functions are considered to be included in the Contractor's fully burdened ship repair labor rate for direct production hours. Labor hours for support functions shall not be separately proposed, billed, or deducted from Over and Above allocations, including support provided to subcontractors. Support functions include, and are not limited to, those types listed below:

Testing Quality Assurance Execution Planning Cleaning (except tank cleaning) Supervision (all types, including, but not limited to supervision of trades, support personnel and subcontractors) Security Surveying Administration Transportation Purchasing Staff Lofting Other indirect support Handling & Warehousing Safety/Environmental Program Management

3. The fully burdened ship repair labor rate is a fixed hourly rate that includes all wages, (i.e. straight time, overtime, shift differential, holiday time, etc.), overhead, all other indirect costs, general and administrative expenses, Facilities Capital Cost of Money (FCCOM) and profit. The fully burdened ship repair labor rate represents a blended rate including labor transferred between divisions, subsidiaries, or affiliates of the contractor under a common control.

4. Consumable materials are goods used in the ordinary course of work performance such as office supplies, paper, rags, vehicle or equipment fuel costs, cleaning chemicals, disposable tools, welding rods, paint buckets, paint brushes, protective clothing, etc., that are consumed/used in the process of repair and do not become an integral part of the repaired vessel. Consumable material shall be included in the Contractor's fully burdened ship repair labor rate and shall not be separately priced or reimbursed under any Over and Above work.

5. Physical materials are goods that become incorporated into the repaired vessel in the course of the repair, such as replacement steel, pipes, paint, and fasteners. The material handling rate applies to physical materials but not to consumable materials. The material handling rate will be applied to the actual cost of the physical material. Actual cost does not include handling charges, general and administrative cost, overhead, profit, or any other indirect cost.

6. For over and above work involving subcontractors, subcontractor quotes will only be subject to the material handling fee rate identified in Attachment J-3. Subcontractor quotes must be competitively acquired and submitted with the contractor's pricing proposal in response to CCOs, if applicable, issued by the Contracting Officer (KO). At no time will the proposed total to be performed by the prime contractor combined with subcontractor quote, material quote, and applicable material handling fee be allowed to cost more than it would have, had the prime contractor directly provided all material and labor. If the Contractor intends to subcontract a CCO for procurement of material only, the Contractor shall notify the KO prior to submitting its CCO pricing stating the reason subcontracting the CCO is the best value to the Government. The proposed total pricing restriction addressed in the preceding sentence does not apply in any case where the work is required to be performed by Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), or Government directed subcontractors. CCOs that are subcontracted for material only (no associated labor required within the CCO) shall not be subject to the material handling fee. Any material handling fee rate applied to new work shall be approved at the discretion of the KO, upon receipt of supporting documentation in accordance with FAR / RFO 15.404-1(b).

7. The Contract fixed fully burdened ship repair labor rate and material handling rate identified in Attachment J-3 shall be used for negotiating over and above work during the availability and up to three (3) months after the Contract Complete date.

NOTE B: AVAILABILITY SCHEDULE PERFORMANCE

1. The Contractor shall schedule the performance of all items in the work package, including all Base Items, Option Items, and Over and Above work--so as to accommodate scope increases up to the total labor hours and material dollars identified in the Over and Above CLIN 0002.

2. The Contractor agrees that Over and Above labor hours and materials, when authorized by the Contracting Officer, shall be performed, purchased and installed concurrently with the Work Items (WIs), without impacting, accelerating, or causing delay or disruption to the critical path, the redelivery date, or to any other work in progress for the Government.

Whenever the Contractor discovers discrepancies, hidden damage, excessive wear, or determines that additional parts/work beyond the baseline specification are required, the Contractor shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer and Principal Port Engineer (PPE) via email and submit a formal Work Request / Condition Found Report (CFR). Each CFR shall include:

Identification of the specific WI and equipment discrepancy disclosed;

Precise shipboard location of the discrepancy;

Detailed description of the technical scope and corrective action proposed; and A Firm-Fixed-Price quote/proposal detailing estimated direct production labor hours and direct material costs necessary to correct the condition, supported by other than certified cost or pricing data and vendor quotes.

3. Authorization Requirement & Blanket Work Authorizations:

The Contractor shall not proceed with any Over and Above work or invoice against CLIN 0002 until authorized in writing by the Contracting Officer.

However, the Contracting Officer may issue a Blanket Work Authorization at time of contract award establishing administrative thresholds, standardized procedures, and an aggregate dollar limitation under which individual routine CFRs may be expedited and authorized.

4. Joint Review and Proposal Evaluation:

The Contracting Officer and the MSC Principal Port Engineer (PPE) will promptly review all CFRs, technical justifications, and cost proposals. If not covered by an active blanket authorization, the Contracting Officer will formally authorize the work via a written Direction Letter (DL) or bilateral /unilateral contract modification. Pricing shall be strictly determined by multiplying direct production hours by the fixed hourly labor rate and applying the fixed Material Handling Percentage (%) to direct material costs, as established in Attachment J-3.

5. Mandatory 80% Obligation Notification:

The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer and the Principal Port Engineer in writing via email immediately when cumulative authorized Over and Above work under CLIN 0002 exceeds 80% of the total amount obligated under the CLIN.

6. Scope Disputes and Continued Performance:

If the Contractor believes that any directed effort calls for work outside the scope of the contract, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing within two (2) business days of receipt of direction. In the event of an urgency or cost dispute, the Contracting Officer may unilaterally authorize hours and material against CLIN 0002. The Contractor shall promptly proceed with directed Over and Above work without delay, pending final resolution of any dispute in accordance with RFO 52.233-1 (Alternate I), "Disputes."

7. Allowable Direct Production Deductions:

Only actual, authorized direct production labor hours expended shall be deducted from the CLIN 0002 labor hour allocation. In accordance with Note A, all supervisory, QA, planning, and administrative labor is bundled into the fixed labor rate and shall not be deducted. Contractor quotes shall not include allowances for technical representatives unless specifically directed by the Contracting Officer.

8. Allowable Direct Material Deductions:

Only authorized direct material dollars and approved subcontractor costs shall be deducted from the CLIN 0002 material dollar allocation. In accordance with Note A, the Contractor shall not add handling fees, overhead, G&A, or profit to the settled acquisition cost of materials deducted from the allocation.

9. Final Settlement and 100% De-obligation of Unexpended Funds:

Following redelivery of the vessel and receipt of the Contractor's final availability report, the Contracting Officer will issue a final contract modification settling all Over and Above labor hours and material dollars. Once settled, neither party shall be entitled to an adjustment because actual expended hours or costs differed from the settled amount (except for fraud, gross mistakes, or latent defects). Any unexpended, unobligated balance of labor hours and material funds remaining on CLIN 0002 shall be unilaterally de-obligated by the Government at 100% value.

In the event the Contractor is asked to stop work for safety reasons, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing of the circumstances surrounding the stop work.

If the Contractor believes it has been directed to perform work outside the scope of the contract, it must notify the Contracting Officer immediately.

Upon discovering discrepancies, hidden damage, or necessary repairs during "open, clean, and inspect" evolutions, the Contractor shall submit a written Condition Found Report (CFR) / Work Request via email to the Contracting Officer and the MSC Principal Port Engineer (PPE). Each CFR shall detail the discrepancy, specific shipboard location, recommended technical solution, and a firm-fixed-price proposal incorporating direct production labor hours and direct material costs IAW Section C.

2. Scope Limitation: tasking under CLIN 0002 shall only be used to accomplish within-scope growth, emerging repairs, and machineO&A /component overhauls resulting from Base Work Items associated with CLIN 0001.

3. Authorization Requirement: The Contracting Officer and the MSC Principal Port Engineer will promptly review the CFR and associated quote. The Contractor shall not proceed with any work or invoice against CLIN 0002 until authorized in writing by the Contracting Officer via an O&A Authorization to Proceed (ATP), Direction Letter (DL), or contract modification.

4. Blanket Work Authorizations: IAW Section B Note C, the Contracting Officer may issue a Blanket Work Authorization at time of award setting forth standardized procedures, administrative thresholds, and a total dollar limitation under which routine CFRs may be expedited.

5. Estimate Adjudication & NAVSUP FLCPS Resolution: In the event the Contractor's estimate differs from the Government estimate prepared by NAVSUP FLCPS and MSC, labor hours and material costs shall be negotiated promptly. If agreement cannot be reached before work must proceed to prevent schedule delay, the KO may issue a unilateral direction to proceed at a directed labor hour/price level. The Contractor shall proceed immediately with directed work. Any remaining disagreement shall be resolved IAW RFO 52.233-1 (Alternate I), "Disputes."

6. Mandatory 80% Obligation Notification: The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer and Principal Port Engineer in writing via email immediately when cumulative authorized work under CLIN 0002 exceeds 80% of the total funds obligated under the CLIN.O&A

The report shall contain: Work Item number; CFR/CCO number; title/description; direct labor hours and material dollars negotiated/authorized; cumulative amounts authorized against CLIN 0002; and the remaining unexpended balance of labor hours and material dollars allocated under the CLIN.

8. Final O&A Settlement Report: The Contractor shall submit a final cumulative report no later than five (5) calendar days following O&A completion of the availability / vessel redelivery to the KO and PPE.

9. Final Settlement & 100% Recoupment: Following redelivery and review of the final report, the KO will issue a final contract modification settling all labor hours and material costs. Once settled, neither party will be entitled to an adjustment based on actual expended hours or costs (except O&A for fraud, gross mistakes, or latent defects). Any unexpended, unobligated balance of labor hours and material funds remaining on CLIN 0002 shall be unilaterally de-obligated by the Government at 100% value.
