4. Bond premium adjustment, consequent upon changes ordered, will be made as elsewhere specified at the time of final settlement under the contract and will not be included in the individual change.

5. The Contractor shall submit a proposal for work that they believe is beyond the contractual requirements. This proposal shall be in accordance with sub-paragraph 6. a. above and submitted in the form of a sequentially numbered “Contractor Proposed Change” (CPC). The CPC shall be submitted within 30 calendar days of having identified this work. No extra contractual work shall proceed without the appropriate change document.

G. When the Contractor receives notification of a change made pursuant to the Contract Clause entitled "Changes" or after affirmation of constructive change thereunder, the

JCCA 13610-5 Page 4 Section 01 26 00

Contractor should submit a claim for equitable adjustment under this clause. This claim shall include all types of adjustments in the total amounts to which that clause entitles the Contractor, including but not limited to adjustments arising out of delays or disruptions or both caused by such change. Except as the parties may otherwise expressly agree, the Contractor shall be deemed to have waived (I) any adjustments to which it otherwise might be entitled under the aforesaid clause where such claim fails to request such adjustment, and (ii) any increase in the amount of equitable adjustments additional to those requested in its claim. Further, the Contractor agrees that, if required by the Contracting Officer, it will execute a release, in form and substance satisfactory to the Contracting Officer, as part of the supplemental agreement setting forth the aforesaid adjustment, and that such release shall discharge the Government, its officers, agents, and employees, from any further claims, including but not limited, to further claims arising out of delays or disruptions or both caused by the aforesaid change.
