Contract Number: Job Title:

MDA Organization Supported: Phone:

1. I certify that I am familiar with and will abide by the requirements of Federal Acquisition Regulation

(FAR) on Procurement Integrity, FAR 3.104, and particularly with respect to my and the government’s responsibilities to provide impartial, fair, and equitable treatment of contractors and to protect contractor proprietary and source selection information. I am also familiar with requirements to safeguard information within possession of the U.S. Government and protect against unauthorized disclosure pursuant to 18 U.S. Code Section 641 (public property or records), 793 (gathering, transmitting or losing defense information). These statutes impose criminal penalties including imprisonment and fines on persons who without legal authority disclose government information. I understand the government information I must safeguard includes, but is not limited to the following: Classified

(Top Secret, Secret, Confidential), Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), source selection sensitive, and Privacy Act information.

2. I understand that the Procurement Integrity Act, 41 U.S.C. §2101-2107 Prohibitions on disclosing and obtaining procurement information and 18 U.S.C. §1832 (Theft of Trade Secrets) prohibit current and former federal employees, and contractor employees supporting agency acquisition matters, from disclosing source selection information, contractor bid or proposal information, and contractor proprietary data except as authorized by law. I understand that improper disclosure of protected information may result in individual criminal penalties to include up to 5 years imprisonment and civil penalties to include a fine up to $50,000.00 for each violation along with individual and organizational suspension or debarment. As a separate civil law matter, I also understand a civil legal suit may be brought by a third party against me in my personal capacity for damages of improper disclosure of third party proprietary data, trade secrets, Privacy Act information, etc., for which I would face attorney representation at my own expense and understand I would be personally liable for any Court judgment and damages if a verdict is issued against me.

3. I understand that, in the course of the performance of my responsibilities as a contractor employee in support of Missile Defense Agency (MDA), I may obtain access to sensitive information. This information can include, but is not limited to: procurement sensitive information (to include acquisition planning requirements and strategy and statements of work); proprietary information (to include but not limited to other contractor labor rates or other proposal information); source selection information; and budgetary and financial information. Such information may also include Controlled Unclassified Information and may be specifically exempt or protected from disclosure by the Freedom of Information Act, the Privacy Act, the

Procurement Integrity Act, and other legislation.
