(b) With the submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges and accepts the utilization of electronic commerce as part of the requirements of this solicitation and the resultant contract.

(c) Certain documents may need to be provided or maintained in original form, such as large-scale drawings impractical to convert to electronic format or a document with a raised seal signifying authenticity.

(d) The use of electronic signature technology is authorized under this solicitation and the resulting contract.

(e) Contractors must not digitally sign any documents with software that uses the Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA- 1).

Further guidance on the use of SHA-256 is in NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-57 Part 1, section

5.6.2 as amended and SP 800-131A, Revision 1 dated November 6, 2015. Additional guidance on the use of SHA-3 is in NIST SP 800-185 as amended.

b. Contract price adjustment under this clause shall be limited to one occurrence per option term, and each line item price is limited to a maximum of a 10% increase, or 10% decrease, per occurrence. There is no minimum amount of adjustment that may be considered under this clause.

c. The contractor warrants that the prices in this contract do not include any allowance for any contingency to cover increased costs for which adjustment is provided under this clause.

d. Definitions, for purposes of this clause:

(1) The economic indicator shall be the Producers Price Index published on the Internet by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (http://stats.bls.gov) for @02 copper and copper alloy wire and cable, bare and tinned, not seasonally adjusted- commodity code wpu10260314. The data is also available from the Contracting Officer upon request.

(2) The base price index shall be the latest published economic indicator [including data identified as ‘(P) preliminary’] as of the SIR opening date, for purposes of calculating adjustment of the option term prices.

(3) The adjusting price index shall be the latest published economic indicator [including data identified as ‘(P) preliminary] as of 120 days prior to expiration of the contract term.

(4) Contract price or contract line item price shall be the unit price reflected in Section B of the contractor's offer, incorporated into the contract at the time of award, or as later changed by formal contract modification executed by the Contracting Officer.

e. Contractor requests for adjustment under this clause must be submitted to the Contracting Officer in writing no later than 45 days after receipt of the Government's preliminary notice of intent to exercise the option to extend the contract term. The Contracting Officer may, at his/her sole discretion, receive and act upon a request submitted at any time prior to the expiration of the current contract term.

f. Adjustments under this clause shall be made only to the contract prices applicable to the option period identified in the Government's preliminary notice. In no event will the contract prices of an expired contract term be adjusted under this clause.

g. The option period contract unit price shall be adjusted by multiplying the unit price by the percentage difference between the applicable base price index and adjusting price index, subject to the limitations described in paragraph b above. If the adjusting price index is lower than the base price index, the contract unit price will be decreased by the same percentage. If the adjusting price index is higher than the base price index, the contract unit price will be increased by the same percentage.

AC4555 NOTICE OF CONTRACTOR TESTIMONY (SEP 2006)

(a) The contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer promptly in writing of its intention, or the intention of its employees, subcontractors of any tier, or subcontractor employees, either voluntarily or under compulsion of competent authority, to provide sworn testimony on any matter related to or arising under the work required by and/or performed under, this contract.

(b) The contractor shall include the substance of this clause, including this paragraph (b), in all subcontracts executed under this contract and shall require all subcontractors to provide the required report to the contractor.

AC4557 STRIKES OR PICKETING

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Contractor is responsible for delays arising out of labor disputes, including but not limited to strikes, if such strikes are reasonably avoidable. A delay caused by a strike or by picketing which constitutes an unfair labor practice is not excusable unless the Contractor takes all reasonable and appropriate action to end such a strike or picketing, such as the filing of a charge with the National Labor Relations Board, the use of other available Government procedures, and the use of private boards or organizations for the settlement of disputes.

"Data Universal Numbering System +4 (DUNS+4) number" means the DUNS number assigned by D&B plus a 4-character suffix that may be assigned by a business concern. (D&B has no affiliation with this 4-character suffix.)

This 4-character suffix may be assigned at the discretion of the business concern to establish additional SAM records for identifying alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts for the same parent concern.

"Registered in the SAM database" means that the Contractor has entered all mandatory information, including the DUNS number or the DUNS+4 number, into the SAM database.

"System for Award Management (SAM) Database" means the primary Government repository for Contractor information required for the conduct of business with the Government.

(b)(1) By submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges the requirement that a prospective awardee must be registered in the SAM database prior to award, during performance, and through final payment of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchasing agreement resulting from this solicitation.

(2) The offeror must enter, in Representations, Certifications and Other Statements of Offerors Section of the solicitation, the DUNS or DUNS +4 number that identifies the offeror's name and address exactly as stated in the offer. The DUNS number will be used by the Contracting Officer to verify that the offeror is registered in the SAM database.

(c) If the offeror does not have a DUNS number, it should contact Dun and Bradstreet directly to obtain one.

(1) An offeror may obtain a DUNS number

(i) If located within the United States, by calling Dun and Bradstreet at 1-866-705-5711 or via the Internet at http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform; or

(ii) If located outside the United States, by contacting the local Dun and Bradstreet office.

(i) Company legal business.

(ii) Tradestyle, doing business, or other name by which your entity is commonly recognized.

(f) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Government's reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document.

(2) The Contractor must not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims. Assignees must be separately registered in the SAM database. Information provided to the Contractor's SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of payment" paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

(h) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via the internet at http://www.sam.gov.
