For such an offer, the Government may determine that the offered Property does not adequately avoid development in a 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain.

B. In addition, a Lease will not be awarded for any offered Property adjacent to 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain, where such an adjacency would, as determined by the Government, restrict ingress or egress to the Premises in the event of a flood, unless there is no practicable alternative.

SOLICITATION PROVISIONS

(For Simplified Acquisition of Leasehold Interests in Real Property)

1. 552.270-1 - INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS – ACQUISITION OF LEASEHOLD INTERESTS IN

REAL PROPERTY (JUN 2011) – ALTERNATE II (MAR 1998)

(a) Definitions. As used in this provision—

“Discussions” are negotiations that occur after establishment of the competitive range that may, at the Contracting Officer’s discretion, result in the offeror being allowed to revise its proposal.

“In writing, writing or written” means any worded or numbered expression that can be read, reproduced, and later communicated, and includes electronically transmitted and stored information.

“Proposal modification” is a change made to a proposal before the solicitation’s closing date and time, or made in response to an amendment, or made to correct a mistake at any time before award.

“Proposal revision” is a change to a proposal made after the solicitation closing date, at the request of or as allowed by a Contracting Officer as the result of negotiations.

“Time,” if stated as a number of days, is calculated using calendar days, unless otherwise specified, and will include Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays. However, if the last day falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, then the period shall include the next working day.

(b) Amendments to solicitations. If this solicitation is amended, all terms and conditions that are not amended remain unchanged. Offerors shall acknowledge receipt of any amendment to this solicitation by the date and time specified in the amendment(s).

(c) Submission, modification, revision, and withdrawal of proposals.

(1) Unless other methods (e.g., electronic commerce or facsimile) are permitted in the solicitation, proposals and modifications to proposals shall be submitted in paper media in sealed envelopes or packages Offers must be:

(i) Submitted on the forms prescribed and furnished by the Government as a part of this solicitation or on copies of those forms, and

(ii) Signed. The person signing an offer must initial each erasure or change appearing on any offer form. If the offeror is a partnership, the names of the partners composing the firm must be included with the offer.

(2) Late proposals and revisions.

(i) The Government will not consider any proposal received at the office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers unless it is received before the Government makes award and it meets at least one of the following conditions:

(A) It was sent by registered or certified mail not later than the fifth calendar day before the date specified for receipt of offers (e.g., an offer submitted in response to a solicitation requiring receipt of offers by the 20th of the month must have been mailed by the 15th).

(B) It was sent by mail (or telegram or facsimile, if authorized) or hand-carried (including delivery by a commercial carrier) if it is determined by the Government that the late receipt was due primarily to Government mishandling after receipt at the Government installation.

(C) It was sent by U.S. Postal Service Express Mail Next Day Service-Post Office to Addressee, not later than 5:00 p.m. at the place of mailing two working days prior to the date specified for receipt of proposals. The term “working days” excludes weekends and U.S. Federal holidays.

(D) It was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation and was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of proposals.

(E) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the activity designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government’s control prior to the time set for receipt of offers, and

GSA Template 3516A PAGE 2 (REV 10/23) that the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the procurement.

(F) It is the only proposal received.

(ii) Any modification or revision of a proposal or response to request for information, including any final proposal revision, is subject to the same conditions as in paragraphs (c)(2)(i)(A) through (c)(2)(i)(E) of this provision.

(iii) The only acceptable evidence to establish the date of mailing of a late proposal or modification or revision sent either by registered or certified mail is the U.S. or Canadian Postal Service postmark both on the envelope or wrapper and on the original receipt from the U.S. or Canadian Postal Service. Both postmarks must show a legible date or the proposal, response to a request for information, or modification or revision shall be processed as if mailed late. “Postmark” means a printed, stamped, or otherwise placed impression (exclusive of a postage meter machine impression) that is readily identifiable without further action as having been supplied and affixed by employees of the U.S. or Canadian Postal Service on the date of mailing. Therefore, offerors or respondents should request the postal clerk to place a legible hand cancellation bull’s eye postmark on both the receipt and the envelope or wrapper.

(iv) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the proposal wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.

(v) The only acceptable evidence to establish the date of mailing of a late offer, modification or revision, or withdrawal sent by Express Mail Next Day Service-Post Office to Addressee is the date entered by the post office receiving clerk on the “Express Mail Next Day Service-Post Office to Addressee” label and the postmark on both the envelope or wrapper and on the original receipt from the U.S. Postal Service. “Postmark” has the same meaning as defined in paragraph (c)(2)(iii) of this provision, excluding postmarks of the Canadian Postal Service. Therefore, offerors or respondents should request the postal clerk to place a legible hand cancellation bull’s eye postmark on both the receipt and the envelope or wrapper.

(vi) Notwithstanding paragraph (c)(2)(i) of this provision, a late modification or revision of an otherwise successful proposal that makes its terms more favorable to the Government will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(vii) An offeror may withdraw its proposal by written notice or telegram (including mailgram) received at any time before award. If the solicitation authorizes facsimile proposals, an offeror may withdraw its proposal via facsimile received at any time before award, subject to the conditions specified in the provision entitled “Facsimile Proposals.” Proposals may be withdrawn in person by an offeror or an authorized representative, if the representative’s identity is made known and the representative signs a receipt for the proposal before award.

(viii) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that proposals cannot be received at the office designated for receipt of proposals by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of proposals will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office.

(3) Any information given to a prospective offeror concerning this solicitation will be furnished promptly to all other prospective offerors, if that information is necessary in submitting offers or if the lack of it would be prejudicial to any other prospective offeror.

(4) Offerors may submit modifications to their proposals at any time before the solicitation closing date and time, and may submit modifications in response to an amendment, or to correct a mistake at any time before award.

(5) Offerors may submit revised proposals only if requested or allowed by the Contracting Officer.

(6) The Government will construe an offer to be in full and complete compliance with this solicitation unless the offer describes any deviation in the offer.

GSA Template 3516A PAGE 3 (REV 10/23)

(7) Offerors may submit proposals that depart from stated requirements. Such a proposal shall clearly identify why the acceptance of the proposal would be advantageous to the Government. The proposal must clearly identify and explicitly define any deviations from the terms and conditions of the solicitation, as well as the comparative advantage to the Government. The Government reserves the right to amend the solicitation to allow all offerors an opportunity to submit revised proposals based on the revised requirements.

(d) Restriction on disclosure and use of data. An offeror that includes in its proposal data that it does not want disclosed to the public for any purpose, or used by the Government except for evaluation purposes, must meet both of the following conditions:

(1) Mark the title page with the following legend:

This proposal includes data that shall not be disclosed outside the Government and shall not be duplicated, used, or disclosed—in whole or in part—for any purpose other than to evaluate this proposal.

If, however, a lease is awarded to this offeror as a result of—or in connection with—the submission of this data, the Government shall have the right to duplicate, use, or disclose the data to the extent provided in the resulting contract. This restriction does not limit the Government’s right to use information contained in this data if it is obtained from another source without restriction. The data subject to this restriction are contained in sheets [insert numbers or other identification of sheets].

(2) Mark each sheet of data it wishes to restrict with the following legend:

Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this proposal.

(e) Lease award.

(1) The Government intends to award a lease resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose proposal represents the best value after evaluation in accordance with the factors and subfactors in the solicitation.

(2) The Government may reject any or all proposals if such action is in the Government’s interest.

(3) The Government may waive informalities and minor irregularities in proposals received.

(4) The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a lease without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, the offeror’s initial proposal should contain the offeror’s best terms from a cost or price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

If the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

(5) Exchanges with offerors after receipt of a proposal do not constitute a rejection or counteroffer by the Government.

(6) The Government may determine that a proposal is unacceptable if the prices proposed are materially unbalanced between line items or subline items. Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly overstated or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques. A proposal may be rejected if the Contracting Officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

(7) ) The execution and delivery of the Lease contract by the Government establishes a valid award and contract.

GSA Template 3516A PAGE 4 (REV 10/23)

(8) The Government may disclose the following information in postaward debriefings to other offerors:

(i) The overall evaluated cost or price and technical rating of the successful offeror;

(ii) The overall ranking of all offerors, when any ranking was developed by the agency during source selection; and

(iii) A summary of the rationale for award.

(f) Paperwork collection. The information collection requirements contained in this solicitation/contract are either required by regulation or approved by the Office of Management and Budget pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act and assigned OMB Control No. 3090-0163.

2. 552.270-3 PARTIES TO EXECUTE LEASE (JUN 2011)

A lease with an individual doing business as a firm shall be signed by that individual, and the signature shall be followed by the individual's typed, stamped, or printed name and the words, “an individual doing business as _______________ [insert name of firm].”

(b) If the Lessor is a partnership, the lease must be signed in the partnership name, followed by the name of the legally authorized partner signing the same, and a copy of either the partnership agreement or current Certificate of Limited Partnership shall accompany the lease.

(c) If the Lessor is a corporation, the lease must be signed in the corporate name, followed by the signature and title of the officer or other person signing the lease on its behalf, duly attested, and, if requested by the Government, evidence of this authority to so act shall be furnished.

d) If the Lessor is a joint venture, the lease must be signed by each participant in the joint venture in the manner prescribed in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this provision for each type of participant. When a corporation is participating in the joint venture, the corporation shall provide evidence that the corporation is authorized to participate in the joint venture.

(e) If the lease is executed by an attorney, agent, or trustee on behalf of the Lessor, an authenticated copy of the power of attorney, or other evidence to act on behalf of the Lessor, must accompany the lease.

3. 52.215-5 - FACSIMILE PROPOSALS (OCT 1997)

(2) The method and time for resubmission shall be prescribed by the Contracting Officer after consultation with the offeror; and

(3) The resubmission shall be considered as if it were received at the date and time of the original unreadable submission for the purpose of determining timeliness, provided the offeror complies with the time and format requirements for resubmission prescribed by the Contracting Officer.

GSA Template 3516A PAGE 5 (REV 10/23)

(e) The Government reserves the right to make award solely on the facsimile proposal. However, if requested to do so by the Contracting Officer, the apparently successful offeror promptly shall submit the complete original signed proposal.

4. FLOOD PLAINS (JUN 2012)

A Lease will not be awarded for any offered Property located within a 100-year floodplain unless the Government has determined that there is no practicable alternative.

If an Offeror intends that the offered Property that will become the Premises for purposes of this Lease will be something other than the entire site as recorded in tax or other property records the Offeror shall clearly demarcate the offered Property on its site plan/map submissions and shall propose an adjustment to property taxes on an appropriate pro rata basis.

SECTION 1 GENERAL TERMS, CONDITIONS, AND STANDARDS

1.01 DEFINITIONS AND GENERAL TERMS (SMALL) (OCT 2023)

Unless otherwise specifically noted, all terms and conditions set forth in this Lease shall be interpreted by reference to the following definitions, standards, and formulas:

A. Real Property Terms.

1. “ANSI/BOMA” is an acronym for American National Standards Institute/Building Owners and Managers Association.

2. “ANSI/BOMA Occupant Area” or “ABOA” means the measurement standard (Z65.1-2017) provided by ANSI/BOMA for Occupant Area, which is “the total aggregated area used by an Occupant before Load Factors are applied, consisting of Tenant Area and Tenant Ancillary Area.” The Method A – Multiple Load Factor Method shall apply.

3. “Common Area Factor (CAF)” means a conversion factor determined and applied by the building owner to determine the rentable square feet for the leased space. The CAF is expressed as a percentage of the difference between the amount of rentable square feet (SF) and ABOA SF, divided by the ABOA SF. The CAF shall be determined in accordance with the applicable ANSI/BOMA standard for the type of space to which the CAF shall apply.

4. “Rentable Space or Rentable Square Feet (RSF)” means the area for which a tenant is charged rent. It is determined by the building owner and may vary by city or by building within the same city. Rentable space may include a share of common areas such as elevator lobbies, building corridors, and floor service areas. Floor service areas typically include restrooms, janitor rooms, telephone closets, electrical closets, and mechanical rooms. Rentable space does not include vertical building penetrations and their enclosing walls, such as stairs, elevator shafts, and vertical ducts. To determine the RSF, the ABOA SF is multiplied by the sum of one (1) plus the CAF, for each type of space included in the premises.

5. “Space” means that part of the premises to which the Government has exclusive use, such as occupant area, or other types of space.

Appurtenant areas (e.g., parking areas) to which the Government has rights under the lease are not included in the space.

1.02 INTENTIONALLY DELETED

1.03 AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES (OCT 2016)

Signatories to this Lease shall have full authority to bind their respective principals with regard to all matters relating to this Lease. No other persons shall be understood to have any authority to bind their respective principals except to the extent that such authority may be explicitly delegated by notice to the other party, or to the extent that such authority is transferred by succession of interest. The Government shall have the right to substitute its Lease Contracting Officer (LCO) by notice without an express delegation by the prior LCO.

1.04 WAIVER OF RESTORATION (OCT 2023)

Lessor shall have no right to require the Government to restore the Premises upon expiration or earlier termination (full or partial) of the Lease, and waives all claims against the Government for:

A. Waste, or, B. Damages or restoration arising from or related to:

1. The Government's normal and customary use of the Premises during the term of the Lease (including any extensions thereof), as well as

2. Any initial or subsequent alteration to the Premises regardless of whether such alterations are performed by the Lessor or by the

Government.

At its sole option, the Government may abandon property in the Space following expiration or earlier termination (full or partial) of the Lease, in which case the property will become the property of the Lessor, and the Government will be relieved of any liability in connection therewith.

1.05 NOVATION AND CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP (SMALL) (OCT 2016)

Consistent with GSAM 570.115, in the event of a transfer of ownership of the leased premises or a change in the Lessor’s legal name, FAR 42.12 applies.

1.06 INTENTIONALLY DELETED

1.07 ADJUSTMENT FOR VACANT PREMISES (SMALL) (OCT 2022)

LEASE NO. GS-10P-LAK00468, PAGE 3 LESSOR: ________ GOVERNMENT: ________ SUPPLEMENTAL LEASE

If the Government fails to occupy any portion of the leased Premises or vacates the Premises in whole or in part prior to expiration of the term of the Lease, the operating costs paid by the Government as part of the rent rental rate shall be reduced using the “Adjustment for Vacant Premises Rate” specified on GSA Form 3626 of this Lease. This reduction shall occur after the Government gives 30 calendar days’ prior notice to the Lessor and shall continue in effect until the Lease expires or is terminated.

1.08 ENTITY NAME (OCT 2023)

Lessor may not use Federal agency name(s) and/or acronym(s), e.g., General Services Administration, GSA, in its entity name that owns and/or leases Space to GSA.

5.07 IDENTITY VERIFICATION OF PERSONNEL (OCT 2022)

A. The Government reserves the right to verify identities of personnel with routine and/or unaccompanied access to the Government's Space, including both pre and post occupancy periods. The Lessor shall comply with GSA personal identity verification requirements, identified in the GSA Order 2181.1 GSA HSPD-12 Personal Identity Verification and Credentialing Handbook. The Lessor can find the policy and additional information at HTTP://WWW.GSA.GOV/HSPD12. This policy requires the Government to conduct background investigations and make HSPD- 12 compliant suitability determinations for all persons with routine or unaccompanied access to Government leased Space. By definition, this includes at a minimum each employee of the Lessor, as well as employees of the Lessor's contractors or subcontractors who will provide building operating services requiring routine access to the Government’s leased Space for a period greater than 6 months. The Government may also require this information for the Lessor's employees, contractors, or subcontractors who will be engaged to perform alterations or emergency repairs in the Government’s Space.

B. Application Process: The background investigation will be done using the Government's prescribed process. The Lessor must provide information on each of their contractor/personnel meeting the above criteria to the Government, whereupon each identified contractor/personnel will be notified with instructions for completing the identity verification application within a given time frame. The application process will include completing supplemental information forms that must be inputted into the identity verification system in order for the application to be considered complete. Additionally, the Lessor must ensure prompt completion of the fingerprint process for their contractor/personnel. Email notifications will be sent with instructions on the steps to be taken to schedule an appointment for fingerprinting at an approved regional location along with instructions on how to complete the background investigation application.

C. The Lessor must ensure the Lease Contracting Officer (or the Lease Contracting Officer's designated representative) has all of the requested documentation timely to ensure the completion of the investigation.

D. Based on the information furnished, the Government will conduct background investigations. The Lease Contracting Officer will advise the Lessor in writing if a person fails the investigation, and, effective immediately, that person will no longer be allowed to work or be assigned to work in the Government’s Space.

E. Throughout the life of the Lease, the Lessor shall provide the same data for any new employees, contractors, or subcontractors who will be assigned to the Government’s Space in accordance with the above criteria. All Lessor's contractor(s) and subcontractor(s) shall follow the requirements of background investigation in accordance with GSA HSPD-12 policy.

F. The Lessor is accountable for not allowing contractors to start work without the successful completion of the appropriate background investigation as required by GSA policy.

G. Access Card Retrieval/Return: Upon an Entry on Duty notification, the Government will issue a Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credential that is sometimes referred to as a GSA Access card. Lessors are responsible for all PIV credential issued to their contractors/personnel pursuant to this Lease. Lessors are specifically responsible for ensuring that all GSA PIV access cards are returned to the Lease Contracting Officer or their designee whenever their employees or a contractor no longer require access to the Space (such as when no longer needed for contract performance, upon completion of the Contractor employee’s employment, and upon contract completion or termination). Additionally, the Lessor must notify the Lease Contracting Officer or their designee whenever a GSA PIV Access card is lost or stolen in which event the Lessor may be responsible for reimbursing the Government for replacement credentials at the current cost per PIV HSPD12 credential. Unreturned PIV Access cards will be considered as lost or stolen cards.

H. The Government reserves the right to conduct additional background checks on Lessor personnel and contractors with routine access to

Government leased Space throughout the term of the Lease to determine who may have access to the Premises.

I. The Lease Contracting Officer may delay final payment under a contract if the Contractor fails to comply with these…
