(b) Attention is directed to the Contract Award provision of the solicitation that provides that a written award or acceptance of offer mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror results in a binding contract. The Government will mail or otherwise furnish to the offeror an award or notice of award not later than the day the award is dated. Therefore, the offeror shall compute the time available for performance beginning with the actual date of award, rather than the date the written notice of award is received from the Contracting Officer through the ordinary mails. However, the Government will evaluate an offer that proposes delivery based on the Contractor's date of receipt of the contract or notice of award by adding (1) five calendar days for delivery of the award through the ordinary mails, or (2) one working day if the solicitation states that the contract or notice of award will be transmitted electronically. (The term "working day" excludes weekends and U.S. Federal holidays.) If, as so computed, the offered delivery date is later than the required delivery date, the offer will be considered nonresponsive and rejected.

"Correction," as used in this clause, means the elimination of a defect.
"Supplies," as used in this clause, means the end items furnished by the Contractor and related services required under this contract. The word does not include "data."
(b) Contractor's obligations. (1) The Contractor warrants that for notwithstanding inspection and acceptance by the Government of supply items furnished under this contract, the Contractor warrants that for two (2) years after date of delivery all supplies furnished under this contract will be free from defects in material and workmanship and will conform with all requirements of this contract; provided, however, that with respect to Government-furnished property, the Contractor's warranty shall extend only to its proper installation, unless the Contractor performs some modification or other work on the property, in which case the Contractor's warranty shall extend to the modification or other work.
(2) Any supplies or parts thereof corrected or furnished in replacement shall be subject to the conditions of this clause to the same extent as supplies initially delivered. This warranty shall be equal in duration to that set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause and shall run from the date of delivery of the corrected or replaced supplies.
(3) The Contractor shall not be obligated to correct or replace supplies if the facilities, tooling, drawings, or other equipment or supplies necessary to accomplish the correction or replacement have been made unavailable to the Contractor by action of the Government. In the event that correction or replacement has been directed, the Contractor shall promptly notify the Contracting Officer, in writing, of the nonavailability.
(4) The Contractor shall also prepare and furnish to the Government data and reports applicable to any correction required (including revision and updating of all affected data called for under this contract) at no increase in the contract price.
(5) When supplies are returned to the Contractor, the Contractor shall bear the transportation costs from the place of delivery specified in the contract (irrespective of the f.o.b. point or the point of acceptance) to the Contractor's plant and return.
(6) All implied warranties of merchantability and "fitness for a particular purpose" are excluded from any obligation contained in this contract.
(c) Remedies available to the Government. (1) In the event of a breach of the Contractor's warranty in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause, the Government may, at no increase in contract price--
(i) Require the Contractor, at the place of delivery specified in the contract (irrespective of the f.o.b. point or the point of acceptance) or at the Contractor's plant, to repair or replace, at the Contractor's election, defective or nonconforming supplies; or
(ii) Require the Contractor to furnish at the Contractor's plant the materials or parts and installation instructions required to successfully accomplish the correction.
(2) If the Contracting Officer does not require correction or replacement of defective or nonconforming supplies or the Contractor is not obligated to correct or replace under paragraph (b)(3) of this clause, the Government shall be entitled to an equitable reduction in the contract price.
(3) The Contracting Officer shall notify the Contractor in writing of any breach of the warranty in paragraph (b) of this clause within 45 days after discovery of the defect(s). The Contractor shall submit to the Contracting Officer a written recommendation within 14 days as to the corrective action required to remedy the breach. After the notice of breach, but not later than 30 days after receipt of the Contractor's recommendation for corrective action, the Contracting Officer may, in writing, direct correction or replacement as in paragraph (c)(1) of this clause, and the Contractor shall, notwithstanding any disagreement regarding the existence of a breach of warranty, comply with this direction. If it is later determined that the Contractor did not breach the warranty in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause, the contract price will be equitably adjusted.
(4) If supplies are corrected or replaced, the period for notification of a breach of the Contractor's warranty in paragraph (c)(3) of this clause shall be 30 days from the furnishing or return by the Contractor to the Government of the corrected or replaced supplies or parts thereof, or, if correction or replacement is effected by the Contractor at a Government or other activity, for 30 days thereafter.
(5) The rights and remedies of the Government provided in this clause are in addition to and do not limit any rights afforded to the Government by any other clause of the contract.

INCREMENTALLY-FUNDED CONTRACTS
(a) The responsibilities of the Corps are limited by this clause notwithstanding any contrary provision of the "Payments to Contractor" clause or any other clause of this contract.
(b) Pursuant to the authority of 33 U.S.C. § 621 and 16 U.S.C. § 839d-1 this contract is incrementally funded on a fiscal year basis by the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA). Funds are not available at the inception of this contract to cover the entire contract price. The sum of $ To Be Determined At Time Of Contract Award has been reserved under this contract by the Corps and is available for payment to the contractor during the current fiscal year. In accordance with the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between BPA and the Department of the Army (Contract No. DE MS79-94BP94655), the Sub-agreements 19GS-75765 & 19GS-75766 between the Corps and BPA sets the total funding requirements for project construction and the annual funding requirements. The Corps has agreed to perform the work specified within the estimated annual funding requirements and shall coordinate with BPA in updating funding requirements. The liability of the Corps for payments beyond the funds currently reserved under this contract is contingent on the availability of additional funds from BPA under the MOA and Sub-agreement.
(c) Failure to make payments in excess of the amount currently reserved, or that may be reserved from time to time, shall not be considered a breach of this contract, and shall not entitle the contractor to a price adjustment under the terms of this contract.
(d) Contingent upon additional funds being provided by BPA to the Corps, the contracting officer may at any time reserve additional funds for payments under this contract by issuing an administrative change to the contract.
(e) If earnings will be such that funds reserved for this contract will be exhausted before the end of the fiscal year, the contractor shall give written notice to the contracting officer of the estimated date of exhaustion and the amount of additional funds which will be needed to meet payments due or to become due under this contract during that fiscal year. This notice shall be given not less than 45 or more than 60 days prior to the estimated date of exhaustion.
(f) Upon receipt of the contractor’s notice under subparagraph (d), the contracting officer shall promptly provide written notice to the contractor that the Corps is-
(1) Increasing the Corps’ reservation of funds under this contract in a specified amount; or
(2) Reducing the scope of work or terminating the contract; or
(3) Unable to reserve additional funds until the following fiscal year.
(g) No payments will be made after exhaustion of funds except to the extent that additional funds are reserved for the contract. Any suspension, delay, or interruption of work arising from exhaustion or anticipated exhaustion of funds shall not constitute a breach of this contract and shall not entitle the contractor to any price adjustment under a “Suspension of Work” or similar clause or in any other manner under this contract.
(h) An equitable adjustment in performance time shall be made for any increase in the time required for performance of any part of the work arising from exhaustion of funds or the reasonable anticipation of the exhaustion of funds.
(i) If, upon the expiration of sixty (60) days after the beginning of the fiscal year following an exhaustion of funds, the Corps has failed to reserve sufficient additional funds to cover payments otherwise due, the contractor, by written notice delivered to the contracting officer at any time before such additional funds are reserved, may elect to treat his right to proceed with the work as having been terminated. Such a termination shall be at no cost to the Corps, except that, to the extent that additional funds to make payment therefore are allocated to this contract, it may be treated as a termination for the convenience of the Government.
(j) If at any time it becomes apparent that the funds reserved for any fiscal year are in excess of the funds required to meet all payments due or to become due the contractor because of work performed and to be performed under this contract during the fiscal year, the Corps reserves the right, by modification to the contract, to reduce said reservation by the amount of such excess.
(k) The term “Reservation” means funds that have been set aside and made available for payment under this contract by the Corps.
