(10) INTERNET PROTOCOL VERSION SIX (IPv6) (not applicable): In accordance with FAR 11.002(g) and joint NASA Chief Information Officer (CIO) / NASA Associate Administrator for Procurement “Policies to Ensure IPv6 Compliance for Information Technology (IT) Purchases”, this acquisition requires all functionality, capabilities and features to be supported and operational in both a dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 environment and an IPv6 only environment. Furthermore, all management, user interfaces, configuration options, reports and other administrative capabilities that support IPv4 functionality will support comparable IPv6 functionality. Respondents are required to include in their response, either a letter declaring that no product in this acquisition is dependent on either IPv4 or IPv6 to function and does not apply, or include a letter of self-certification that their product has been tested in both a dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 and IPv6 only environment and meets this requirement. Agency reserves the right to require the respondent’s products to be tested within an agency or 3rd party test facility to show compliance with this requirement.
In addition, all interested parties responding to this acquisition are required to provide a Self Declaration of Conformance (SDOC) based on the USGv6 Profile and Testing Program in accordance with NIST SP 500-267, NIST SP-273, and NIST SP 500-281. Instructions for completing the SDOC can be found at the referenced IPv6 website: http://www-x.antd.nist.gov/usgv6/sdoc.html
(11) 508 COMPLIANCE (if applicable): The contractor must demonstrate that the products offered under this contract align to the Electronic and Information Technology Accessibility Standards (Section 508) in FAR 39.201 (a). Additional information is available at: http://www.section508.gov.
Typically, this is accomplished by PUBLISHER/Reseller providing Voluntary Product Accessibility Templates (VPATs) for the associated products. In the event that VPATs are not provided, the government must obtain a waiver following established NASA processes.
PUBLISHER/Reseller is required to assist NASA with providing the documentation supporting any such waiver request.
(12) ADDITIONAL LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS: The contractor will be responsible for incorporating the appropriate licensing terms and conditions into this contract and will notify NASA in the event any of these terms are updated or revised by the contractor. However, before any such terms can be incorporated, these terms must first be specifically approved by the NASA Contracting Officer.
(13) DELIVERY SCHEDULE: The contractor is required to provide licenses and license support on the effective date of this Order, May 1, 2019.
(14) CONTRACTOR COMMUNICATIONS/OUTREACH: The Contractor shall coordinate with the NSSC to ensure the contract products and support are ordered, approved, and communicated to customers in a consistent manner. The Contractor shall coordinate all major Center and/or Agency outreach and contract management communications through the NSSC.
(15) LICENSE AND GRANTS: At the time NASA places an order for C&R products, the contractor shall execute an order for a C&R EULA specifying the license grant details, including the license type, unit of measure, delivery location as requested by NASA, and the units ordered. The contractor acknowledges that NASA and its users shall not be bound by the terms of “Click Wrap” licenses or other related end user terms in the C&R EULA to the extent such “Click Wrap” licenses or end user terms conflict with the terms of this contract.
(16) COST AVOIDANCE: The Contractor shall provide the Contracting Officer, or designated delegate, a fiscal year quarterly report, delivered in a commonly recognized and accepted electronic spreadsheet, such as .xlsx and .cvs formats, that provides an itemization of purchase orders, calls, and purchase card transactions that have occurred during that month’s timeframe. This report shall be delivered within 10 business days upon the end of each fiscal quarter. This report shall include the transaction/order date, part/mfg. number, product description, NASA Center/Mission, license start and end dates, quantity, commercial unit price, government unit price, NASA discounted price, and the extended price for each. A cost difference shall be calculated per line between commercial extended and NASA extended, as well as a cost difference between government extended and NASA extended price per line. A total summation of the difference for each will provide NASA a cost avoidance value for the quarter. For orders, calls or other transactions that have co-termed licenses to other than twelve (12) months, the unit pricing shall reflect the adjusted pro-rated co-termed values for unit prices. Other cost avoidance benefits directly tied to the software purchase, such as added services or software at no additional charge, shall also be included in this reporting.
(17) LIMITATION OF FUNDS: It is the Agency’s policy to fully fund all firm fixed price orders unless an incremental funding waiver is processed and approved prior to awarding the contract. However, at times, in the event of a continuing resolution and funds are not available to fully fund the contract, NFS
1852.232-77, Limitations of Funds—Fixed Price Contracts, would apply and would be incorporated into the contract by modification.
(18) COST AND FEES: Pursuant to the Anti-Deficiency Act, 31 U.S.C. 1341§ (a)(1)(B), the U.S. Government does not agree to pay any future costs or fees under the license agreement or this Contract. Any provision of the Licensing Terms obligating the U.S. Government to pay costs, fees, or damages, or to otherwise expend appropriations, are hereby inoperative and invalid unless imposed after following the Dispute Resolution Procedures identified hereunder. Any provisions of the Licensing Terms providing for automatic renewal absent some action by the U.S. Government is likewise inoperative and invalid.
(19) LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY: Any limitations of liability in the license agreement is hereby inoperative and invalid and the following provision shall replace it and apply: Neither the Contractor nor an NASA ordering activity shall be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data, or data use. Further, neither the Contractor nor an NASA ordering activity shall be liable for punitive damages except to the extent this limitation is prohibited by applicable law. This clause shall not impair the U.S. Government’s right to recover for fraud or crimes arising out of or related to this Contract under any federal fraud statute, including the False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. §§ 37299-3733.

(a) As used in this clause, “sensitive information” refers to information, not currently in the public domain, that the Contractor has developed at private expense, that may embody trade secrets or commercial or financial information, and that may be sensitive or privileged.
(b) In accomplishing management activities and administrative functions, NASA relies heavily on the support of various service providers. To support NASA activities and functions, these service providers, as well as their subcontractors and their individual employees, may need access to sensitive information submitted by the Contractor under this contract. By submitting this proposal or performing this contract, the Contractor agrees that NASA may release to its service providers, their subcontractors, and their individual employees, sensitive information submitted during the course of this procurement, subject to the enumerated protections mandated by the clause at 1852.237-72, Access to Sensitive Information.
(c)(1) The Contractor shall identify any sensitive information submitted in support of this proposal or in performing this contract. For purposes of identifying sensitive information, the Contractor may, in addition to any other notice or legend otherwise required, use a notice similar to the following:
Mark the title page with the following legend:
This proposal or document includes sensitive information that NASA shall not disclose outside the Agency and its service providers that support management activities and administrative functions. To gain access to this sensitive information, a service provider’s contract must contain the clause at NFS 1852.237-72, Access to Sensitive Information. Consistent with this clause, the service provider shall not duplicate, use, or disclose the information in whole or in part for any purpose other than to perform the services specified in its contract. This restriction does not limit the Government's right to use this information if it is obtained from another source without restriction.
Mark each page of sensitive information the Contractor wishes to restrict with the following legend:
Use or disclosure of sensitive information contained on this page is subject to the restriction on the title page of this proposal or document.
(2) The Contracting Officer shall evaluate the facts supporting any claim that particular information is “sensitive.” This evaluation shall consider the time and resources necessary to protect the information in accordance with the detailed safeguards mandated by the clause at 1852.237-72, Access to Sensitive Information. However, unless the Contracting Officer decides, with the advice of Center counsel, that reasonable grounds exist to challenge the Contractor’s claim that particular information is sensitive, NASA and its service providers and their employees shall comply with all of the safeguards contained in paragraph (d) of this clause.
(d) To receive access to sensitive information needed to assist NASA in accomplishing management activities and administrative functions, the service provider must be operating under a contract that contains the clause at 1852.237-72, Access to Sensitive Information. This clause obligates the service provider to do the following:
(1) Comply with all specified procedures and obligations, including the Organizational Conflicts of Interest Avoidance Plan, which the contract has incorporated as a compliance document.
(2) Utilize any sensitive information coming into its possession only for the purpose of performing the services specified in its contract.
(3) Safeguard sensitive information coming into its possession from unauthorized use and disclosure.
(4) Allow access to sensitive information only to those employees that need it to perform services under its contract.
(5) Preclude access and disclosure of sensitive information to persons and entities outside of the service provider’s organization.
(6) Train employees who may require access to sensitive information about their obligations to utilize it only to perform the services specified in its contract and to safeguard it from unauthorized use and disclosure.
(7) Obtain a written affirmation from each employee that he/she has received and will comply with training on the authorized uses and mandatory protections of sensitive information needed in performing this contract.
(8) Administer a monitoring process to ensure that employees comply with all reasonable security procedures, report any breaches to the Contracting Officer, and implement any necessary corrective actions.
(e) When the service provider will have primary responsibility for operating an information technology system for NASA that contains sensitive information, the service provider’s contract shall include the clause at 1852.204-76, Security Requirements for Unclassified Information Technology Resources. The Security Requirements clause requires the service provider to implement an Information Technology Security Plan to protect information processed, stored, or transmitted from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or use. Service provider personnel requiring privileged access or limited privileged access to these information technology systems are subject to screening using the standard National Agency Check (NAC) forms appropriate to the level of risk for adverse impact to NASA missions. The Contracting Officer may allow the service provider to conduct its own screening, provided the service provider employs substantially equivalent screening procedures.
(f) This clause does not affect NASA's responsibilities under the Freedom of Information Act.
(g) The Contractor shall insert this clause, including this paragraph (g), suitably modified to reflect the relationship of the parties, in all subcontracts that may require the furnishing of sensitive information.

RIDER TO MANUFACTURER END USER LICENSE AGREEMENTS (FOR NASA END USERS-CIVIL SERVANTS AND CONTRACTORS)
(a) Scope. This NASA Rider establishes the terms and conditions enabling NASA and the associated Centers/Facilities (the "Client" or “Licensee”) to receive Software and Services.
(b) Contract Formation. Subject to FAR Sections 1.601(a) and 43.102, all Government Orders must be signed by a duly warranted contracting officer. The same requirement applies to modifications affecting the rights of the parties. All terms and conditions intended to obligate the Government must be included within the order signed by the Government.
(c) Consent to Government Law / Consent to Jurisdiction. Subject to the Contracts Disputes Act of 1978 (41.U.S.C §§ 7101-7109) and the Federal Tort Claims Act (28 U.S.C. §1346(b)). The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Rider will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States. In the event the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA) or any related Federal law or regulation is enacted, to the extent allowed by law, it will not apply to this Agreement, and the governing law will remain unchanged. All clauses in the Licensor EULA referencing equitable remedies are deemed not applicable to the Government order and will be deleted.
(d) Force Majeure. Subject to FAR 52.212 -4 (f) Excusable delays. Unilateral Termination by the Contractor does not apply to a Government order and all clauses in the Licensor EULA referencing unilateral termination rights of the Manufacturer are hereby deleted. This clause violates the contract formation rules of FAR 1.601(a) and
43.102. This allows the vendor to introduce unacceptable terms in the future and removes the Government's ability to control what terms it is bound by.
(e) Assignment. All clauses regarding Assignment are subject to FAR Clause 52.212- 4(b), and FAR 42.12 Novation and Change-of-Name Agreements, and all clauses governing Assignment in the Licensor EULA are hereby deleted.
(f) Waiver of Jury Trial. All clauses referencing waiver of Jury Trial are subject to FAR Clause 52.212-4(d), and all clauses governing waiver of jury trial in the Licensor’s EULA are hereby deleted.
(g) Customer Indemnities. All Licensor EULA clauses referencing Customer Indemnities are hereby deleted. The government cannot commit to indemnify the vendor for various things. This is an obligation in advance of an appropriation that violates anti-deficiency laws (31 USC 1341 and 41 USC 6301), because it commits the Government to pay an unknown amount at an unknown future time. The violation occurs when the commitment is made, i.e., when the agreement featuring
80NSSC20Q0378
this clause is incorporated into a Government contract, and not when the clause is triggered.
(h) Contractor Indemnities. All Licensor EULA clauses that (1) violate DOJ’s right under 28 U.S.C. 516 to represent the Government in any case and/or (2) require that the Government give sole control over the litigation and/or settlement, are hereby deleted.
(i) Renewals. All Licensor EULA clauses that violate the Anti-Deficiency Act’s (31 U.S.C. 1341, 41 U.S.C.11) ban on automatic renewal are hereby deleted.
(j) Future Fees or Penalties. All Licensor clauses that violate the Anti-Deficiency Act (31 U.S.C.1341, 41 U.S.C. 11), that prohibits the Government from paying any fees or penalties beyond the Contract amount, unless specifically authorized by existing statutes, such as the Prompt Payment Act, or Equal Access To Justice Act 31 U.S.C. 3901, 5 U.S.C. 504 are hereby deleted. The Government should pay only the awarded contract price; any change to the contract price requires the contracting officer's approval and, specifically in Schedule contracts, is further limited as to frequency and amount. Applicable federal travel regulations govern travel costs. Late payment interest is governed by the Prompt Payment Act (31 USC 3901 et seq) and Treasury regulations at 5 CFR 1315. Attorney fees are available only under limited circumstances to certain small business claimants as set forth in the Equal Access to Justice Act (5 USC 504).
(k) Taxes. Taxes are subject to FAR 52.212-4(k), which provides that the contract price includes all Federal, state, local taxes and duties.
(l) Dispute Resolution and Venue. Any disputes relating to the Licensor EULA and to this Rider shall be resolved in accordance with the FAR, and Contract Disputes Act, 41 U.S.C. §§ 7101-7109. NASA acknowledges that the Licensor, shall have standing to bring such claim under the Contract Disputes Act.
(m) Limitation of Liability: 52.212-4(p) is hereby replaced with the following The Licensor and NASA shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data, or data use. Further, the Licensor and NASA shall not be liable for punitive damages except to the extent this limitation is prohibited by applicable Federal law. This clause shall not impair the U.S. Government’s right to recover for fraud or crimes arising out of or related to this Government Contract under any Federal fraud statute, including the False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. §§ 3729- 3733.
(n) Advertisements and Endorsements. Unless specifically authorized by NASA in writing, use of the name or logo of any U.S. Government entity is prohibited.
(o) Public Access to Information. The Licensor agrees that the EULA and this Rider contain no confidential or proprietary information and acknowledges the EULA and this Rider will be available to the public.
(p) Confidentiality. Any provisions that require the Licensee to keep certain information confidential are subject to the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. §552, and any order by a United States Federal Court.
