CLAUSES IN FULL-TEXT

Addendum to FAR 52.212-4 Contract Terms and Conditions - Commercial Items (Oct 2018).

(C) Changes. The text is deleted and replaced as follows:

FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services and FAR 52.217-9, Option to Extend the Terms of the Contract, have been added by addendum to this contract. In accordance with terms and conditions of the clause, the Contracting Officer may unilaterally exercise any option(s). All other changes to the terms and conditions of this contract shall be made only by written agreement of the parties.

(x) Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA). The text is added as follows:

(1) Contract to be Performed in Japan. The Status of Forces Agreement between the United States and Japan (SOFA) governs the rights and obligations of the United States armed forces in Japan. Unless a contractor is present in Japan solely to perform under a contract with the United States for the sole benefit of the United States armed forces in Japan and is accorded privileges under SOFA Article XIV, it and its employees shall be subject to all the laws and regulations of Japan.

Certain contractor employees and their dependents not accorded privileges under SOFA Article XIV may be accorded privileges under SOFA Article I(b).

(2) The Contractor shall comply with the instruction of the Contracting Officer concerning the entry of its employees, equipment, and supplies into Japan, and shall comply with all applicable Japanese laws and regulations as well as United States Forces Japan (USFJ) and USFJ component policies and regulations during the performance of this contract.

(3) SOFA Article I(b) Status

(A) SOFA Article I(b) status. Contractor employees performing under contracts with the United States for the provision of services in support of U.S. armed forces in Japan, and whose presence is required in Japan to provide such services, may be determined eligible to acquire SOFA status in Japan as part of the civilian component under Article I(b) of the SOFA. Article I(b) does not create a lawful status in Japan for any entity other than individuals (e.g., the company employing the individual does not acquire SOFA status under Article I(b)). To qualify for SOFA status under SOFA Article I(b), such individuals must be:

(i) United States nationals,

(ii) not ordinarily resident in Japan,

(iii) present in Japan at the invitation of, and solely for the purpose of executing contracts with, the United States for the benefit of the United States armed forces, and (iv) not contractors or employees of a contractor whose presence in Japan is solely for the purpose of executing contracts within the definition of SOFA Article XIV.

(B) The contracting officer may determine a proposed contractor employee's eligibility for recognition as a Member of the Civilian Component under Article I(b) of the SOFA by documenting on a Letter of Authorization (LOA) that the contractor employee is essential to the mission of the United States armed forces and has a high degree of skill of knowledge for the accomplishment of mission requirements by fulfilling one of the following:

(i) Acquiring the skill and knowledge through a process of higher education or specialized training and experience; or

(ii) Possessing a security clearance recognized by the United States to perform his or her duties; or

(iii) Possessing a license or certification issued by a U.S. Federal Department or Agency, U.S. State, U.S. Territory, or the District of Columbia to perform his or her duties; or

(iv) Identified by the United States armed forces as necessary in an emergent situation and will remain in Japan for less than 91 days to fulfill specialized duties; or

(v) Specifically authorized by the Joint Committee.

(C) Contractor employees shall present a valid LOA, signed by the Contracting Officer, to Japanese immigration officials upon entry into Japan to receive GOJ recognition as a Member of the Civilian Component under Article I(b) of the SOFA.

(D) SOFA Article 1(b) privileges and benefits. Persons granted authority to enter Japan under SOFA Article I(b) and their dependents (defined as spouse, children under 21, and, if dependent for over half their support upon an individual having SOFA Article I(b) status, parents and children over 21) may be accorded the following benefits of the SOFA. These privileges are personal to the employee/dependent and to not inure to the employer.

(i) Access to and movement between facilities and areas in use by the United States armed forces and between such facilities and areas and the ports or airports of Japan as provided for in SOFA Article V, paragraph 2;

(ii) Entry into Japan and exemption from Japanese laws and regulations on the registration and control of aliens as provided for in SOFA Article IX;

(iii) Acceptance as valid by Japan, without a driving test or fee, a U.S. Forces, Japan Operator's Permit for Civilian Vehicle as provided for in SOFA Article X. Issuance of such permit shall be subject to applicable military regulation;

(iv) Exemption from customs duties and other such charges on materials, supplies, and equipment which are to be incorporated into articles or facilities used by the United States armed forces furniture, household goods for private use imported by person when they first arrive to work in Japan, vehicles and parts imported for private use, and reasonable quantities of clothing and household goods for everyday private use which are mailed into Japan through United States military post offices as provided for in SOFA Article XI, paragraphs 2 and 3;

(v) Exemption from the laws and regulations of Japan with respect to terms and conditions of employment as provided for in SOFA Article XII, paragraph 7, except that such exemption shall not apply to the employment of local nationals in Japan;

(vi) Exemption from Japanese taxes to the Government of Japan or to any other taxing agency in Japan on income received as a result of their service with the United States armed forces as provided for in SOFA Article XIII. The provisions of Article XIII do not exempt such persons from payment of Japanese taxes on income derived from Japanese sources;

(vii) If authorized by the installation commander or designee, the right to use exchanges, commissaries, messes, social clubs, theaters, newspapers and other non-appropriated fund organizations regulated by United States military authorities as provided for in SOFA Article XV;

(viii) The transmission into or outside of Japan of United States dollar or dollar instruments realized as a result of contract performance as provided for in SOFA Article XIX, paragraph 2;

(ix) The use of postal facilities as provided for in SOFA Article XXI;

(x) Exemption from taxation in Japan on the holding, use transfer by death, or transfer to person or agencies entitled to tax exemption under the SOFA, of movable property, tangible or intangible, the presence of which in Japan is due solely to the temporary presence of these persons in Japan, provided such exemption shall not apply to property held for the purpose of investment or the conduct of other business in Japan or to any intangible property registered in Japan.

(xi) Japan authorities have the right to exercise jurisdiction over SOFA personnel in relation to offenses committed in Japan and punishable by the law of Japan. In those cases in which the Japanese authorities have the primary right to exercise jurisdiction but decide not to do so, the United States shall have the right to exercise such jurisdiction as is conferred on it by the law of the United States.

(xii) Logistic Support. Contractor, contractor personnel, and in the case of personnel granted SOFA Article I(b) status, dependents, shall, subject to availability as determined by the installation commander or designee, be provided logistic support including, but not limited to, the items below.

(1) Base Exchange, including exchange service stations, theaters, and commissary (Article I.b. personnel/dependents and Article XIV personnel only);

(2) Laundry and dry cleaning;

(3) Military banking facilities (Article I(b) personnel/dependents and Article XIV personnel only);

(4) Transient billeting facilities;

(5) Open mess (club) membership, as determined by each respective club;

(6) Casualty assistance (mortuary services) on a reimbursable basis;

(7) Routine medical care on a reimbursable basis for U.S. citizens and emergency medical care on a reimbursable basis for non-U.S. citizens;

(8) Dental care, limited to relief of emergencies on a reimbursable basis;

(9) Department of Defense Dependent Schools on a space-available and tuition-paying basis;

(10) Postal support, as authorized by military postal regulations;

(11) Local recreation services on a space-available basis;

(12) Issuance of U.S. Forces, Japan Operator's Permit;

(13) Issuance of vehicle license plates.

(4) Conduct. Civilian personnel supporting the U.S. armed forces in Japan are guests in a foreign country and must at all times conduct themselves in an honorable and credible manner. Criminal conduct and dishonorable personal behavior committed either on or off duty adversely impacts U. S. and Japanese relations, tarnishes the image of the DoD and USFJ, and hampers the Force's military readiness.

(A) Compliance with laws and regulations. The Contractor shall comply with, and shall ensure that its personnel are familiar with, and comply with, all applicable--

(i) United States, host country, and third country national laws;

(ii) Treaties and international agreements;

(iii) United States regulations, United States Armed Forces directives, instructions, policies, and procedures; and

(iv) Orders, directives, and instructions issued by supported commanders, including those relating to force protection, security, health, safety, liberty policies, alcohol-related incidents, or relations and interaction with local nationals, should serve as guideposts in all on and off duty conduct and will be used as general principles in the application of the government's discretion with regard to paragraph (B), below.

(B) Removal and replacement of Contractor personnel. The Contracting Officer may direct the Contractor, at its own expense, to remove and replace any Contractor personnel who fail to comply with or violate applicable requirements of this contract, including those stipulated in this section. Such action may be taken at the Government's discretion without prejudice to its rights under any other provision of this contract, including the termination for default or cause.

(5) Contractors shall comply with the policies and procedures described in DFARS 225.370, DFARS PGI 225.370(c)(i), USFJI 64-100, "Contract Performance in Japan," and USFJI 36- 2811, "Indoctrination Training Programs."
