Resolution as described in contract clause 3.9.1‐1 “Contract Disputes”, the parties will discuss whether they are willing to utilize ADR techniques such as mediation or nonbinding evaluation of the dispute by a neutral party. Upon receipt of a contract dispute from the contractor, the contracting officer will explore with the contractor whether the use of ADR techniques would be appropriate to resolve the dispute. Both parties must agree that the use of such techniques is appropriate, and agree to fairly share the associated expenses.

Government obtained under conditions which restrict its right to use and disclose data and information or which may be of a nature that its dissemination or use, other than in the performance of this contract, would be adverse to the interests of the Government or other parties. Therefore, the contractor and its subcontractors agree to abide by any restrictive use conditions on such data and not to: (1) knowingly disclose such data and information to others without written authorization from the

Contracting Officer, unless the Government has made data and information available to the public; and

(2) use for any purpose other than the performance of this contract any data which bears a restrictive marking or legend.

(b) In the event the work required to be performed under this contract requires access to proprietary data and information of other companies, the contractor must obtain agreement from such other companies for such use unless such data are provided or made available to the contractor by the

Government. Two copies of such company‐to‐company agreements must be furnished promptly to the

Contracting Officer for information only. These agreements must prescribe the scope of authorized use of disclosure and other terms and conditions to be agreed upon between the parties thereto. It is agreed by the contractor that any such data, whether obtained by the contractor pursuant to the aforesaid agreement or from the Government, must be protected from unauthorized use or disclosure to any individual, corporation, or organization so long as it remains proprietary.

(c) The contractor agrees to conduct formal training to make employees aware of the requirement to maintain confidentiality of data and information, as required above, to the end that they will be disciplined if the necessity to refrain from divulging either the proprietary data of other companies or data that are obtained from the Government to anyone except as authorized.

Government "For Official Use Only") received in connection with the work under this contract.

(e) The contractor agrees to include the substance of this clause in all subcontracts awarded under this contract. The Contracting Officer will consider case‐by‐case exceptions to this requirement for individual subcontracts in the event that: (1) the contractor considers the application of the prohibition of this clause to be inappropriate and unnecessary in the case of a particular subcontract; (2) the contractor provides a written statement affirming absolute unwillingness of a subcontractor to perform, absent some relief from the substance of this prohibition; (3) use of an alternate subcontract source would unreasonably detract from the quality of effort; and (4) the contractor provides the Contracting Officer timely written advance notice of these and any other extenuating circumstances.

(f) Except as the Contracting Officer specifically authorizes in writing, upon completion of all work under this contract, the contractor must return all such data and information obtained from the Government, including all copies, modifications, adaptations, or combinations thereof, to the Contracting Officer.

Data obtained from another company must be disposed of in accordance with the contractor's agreement with that company, or if the agreement makes no provision for disposition, must be returned to that company. The contractor must further certify in writing to the CO that all copies, modifications, adaptations, or combinations of such data or information which cannot reasonably be returned to the

Contracting Officer (or to the appropriate company), have been deleted from the contractor's (and any subcontractor's) records and destroyed.

(g) These restrictions do not limit the contractor's (or subcontractor's) right to use and disclose any data and information obtained from another source without restriction.

Offerors who are not registered should consider applying for registration immediately upon receipt of this solicitation.

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.

(g)(1)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, "doing business as" name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change‐of‐name agreements in AMS Procurement Guidance, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting

(2) The Contractor shall 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 shall 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.
