G-3 INFORMATIONAL SUBLINE ITEMS

It is anticipated that the research and development services performed under this contract will be paid for from multiple sources of funds. Informational subline items will be established as necessary to identify each accounting citation classification.

G-4 PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS FOR MULTIPLE ACCOUNTING CLASSIFICATION CITATIONS (COST-

REIMBURSEMENT)

This contract is a cost-type contract funded by multiple funding types and/or customers, spanning several years.

Funding for the CLINs contained in this contract are received from various funding sources and applied to specific tasking as defined in the funding modifications.

Based on the type of work contracted for on behalf of DOD/Navy customers, payment by CLIN/SLIN/ACRN is significantly important and using any of the payment methods specified in the table identified in PGI 204.7108(b)(2) would result in the funding resources of one customer being paid for work received by another customer. The contractor completes the effort in a fluid environment; therefore, in order to accurately track and account for funding expenditures in accordance with the specific tasking associated with each funding line, payment instruction (d)(12)

"Other" applies as expenditures must reflect the actual work performed, in alignment with the type of funding to avoid violations to the Anti-Deficiency Act.

Payment shall be made in accordance with the Contracting Officer/DCAA approved billing whereby the contractor shall include identification of the CLIN, SLIN, and ACRN on each invoice. This will allow for appropriate contractor invoicing based on the unique customer requirement funding and Contracting Officer’s instructions. This approach also allows for proper matching of the charge to the activity that have received the service/product with the application of the payment to the corresponding entity.

G-5 TECHNICAL DIRECTION MEMORANDUM (TDM)

(a) For the purposes of this clause, technical direction includes the following:

(1) Direction to the Contractor which shifts work emphasis between work areas or tasks, requires pursuit of certain lines of inquiry, fills in details or otherwise describes work which will accomplish the objectives described in the statement of work;

(2) Guidelines to the Contractor, which assist in interpretation of drawings, specifications or technical portions of, work description.

(b) Technical instructions must be within the scope of work stated in the contract. Technical instructions may not be used to:

(2) Direct a change as defined in the contract clause entitled "Changes";

(3) Increase or decrease the estimated contract cost, the fixed fee, or the time required for contract performance;

or

(4) Change any of the terms, conditions or specifications of the contract

(c) The TDM shall be written by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), with the original given to the

Contractor and a copy retained in the CORs file. Technical direction may be issued orally only in emergency situations.

H-4 ORGANIZATIONAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

(a) Definitions.

The term “contractor” includes the Contractor and its employees, affiliates, marketing consultants (if any), consultants, and subcontractors at all tiers.

“Organizational Conflict of Interest” (“OCI”) means that because of other activities or relationships with other persons, a person is unable or potentially unable to render impartial assistance or advice to the

Government, or the person’s objectivity in performing the contract work is or might be otherwise impaired, or a person has an unfair competitive advantage. FAR 2.101. An OCI may result when (1) activities or relationships create an actual or potential conflict of interest related to the performance of the Statement of Work (SOW) of this Contract; or, (2) when the nature of the SOW on this Contract creates an actual or potential conflict of interest with respect to the Contractor in relation to a future acquisition.

“Marketing consultant,” means any independent contractor who furnishes advice, information, direction, or assistance to an offeror or any other contractor in support of the preparation or submission of an offer for a

Government contract by that offeror. An independent contractor is not a marketing consultant when rendering—

(1) Services excluded in FAR Subpart 37.2; (2) Routine engineering and technical services (such as installation, operation, or maintenance of systems, equipment, software, components, or facilities); (3) Routine legal, actuarial, auditing, and accounting services; and (4) Training services.

(b) In accordance with the guidance in FAR Subpart 9.5, the Contracting Officer has determined that potentially significant organizational conflicts of interest (OCIs) could result if the Contractor is allowed to participate (at any level) in future Federal Government acquisitions that include requirements that may be established or affected by the performance of the Statement of Work (SOW) by the Contractor under this

Contract.

(c) It is understood and agreed that the Contractor may be ineligible (unless expressly exempted as provided in FAR Part 9.5) to act as a prime contractor, subcontractor, or consultant or subcontractor to any prime contractor or subcontractor at any tier, for any future requirements (for services, systems, or components of systems) procured by any Federal Government activity where the Contractor, in performance of the SOW under this Contract, has provided or is providing support (as described in FAR 9.505-1 through 9.505-4) that establishes or affects future requirements or may affect the future competition.

(d) The contracting officer responsible for securing future requirements, in his/her sole discretion, may make a determination to exempt the Contractor from ineligibility as described in subparagraph (c) above provided the

Contractor submits an acceptable mitigation plan.

(1) Items for consideration in a mitigation plan include the following: identification of the organizational conflict(s) of interest; a reporting and tracking system; an organizational conflict of interest compliance/enforcement plan, to include employee training and sanctions, in the event of unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information; a plan for organizational segregation (e.g., separate reporting chains); data security measures; and, non-disclosure agreements.

(2) The Government's determination regarding the adequacy of the mitigation plan or the possibility of mitigation is a unilateral decision made solely at the discretion of the Government and is not subject to the

Disputes clause of the contract. The Government may terminate the contract for default if the Contractor fails to implement and follow the procedures contained in any approved mitigation plan.

(3) Nothing contained herein shall preclude the contracting officer in future Federal Government acquisitions from making his/her own determination as to whether an OCI exists and whether any such OCI has been successfully mitigated.

(e) The Contractor shall apply this clause to any subcontractors or consultants who: have access to proprietary information received or generated in the performance of this Contract; and/or, who participate in the development of data, or participate in any other activity related to this Contract which is subject to the terms of this clause at the prime contractor level.

(f) The Contactor agrees that it and its subcontractors at all levels shall use reasonable diligence in protecting proprietary data/information that is received or generated in performance of this Contract in accordance with this clause and any other clause of this Contract pertaining to the nondisclosure of information. The Contractor further agrees that neither it nor its subcontractors will willfully disclose proprietary data/information that is received or generated in the performance of this Contract without the prior permission of the Contracting Officer, and that proprietary information shall not be duplicated, used or disclosed, in whole or part, for any purpose other than to accomplish the work required by the Contract.

(g) The Contractor and its Subcontractors at all levels shall inform their employees that they are required to comply with the applicable requirements and restrictions contained in: restrictive markings applicable to data/information that they receive or generate in the performance of this Contract; FAR Subpart 9.5 pertaining to actual or potential OCIs; FAR 3.104 pertaining to requirements and restrictions under the Procurement Integrity

Act; and, Defense FAR Supplement (DFARS) 252.204-7000 pertaining to “Disclosure of Information.”

(h) The Contractor agrees to enter into written agreements with all companies whose proprietary data it shall have access to and to protect such data from unauthorized use or disclosure as long as it remains proprietary. The

Contractor shall furnish to the Contracting Officer copies of these written agreements. The Contractor agrees to protect the proprietary data and rights of other organizations disclosed to the Contractor during performance of this Contract with the same caution that a reasonably prudent Contractor would use to safeguard its own highly valuable property. The Contractor agrees to refrain from using proprietary information for any purpose other than that for which it was furnished.

(i) The Contractor shall not distribute reports, data or information of any nature received or arising from its performance under this Contract, except as provided by this Contract or as may be directed by the Contracting

Officer.

(j) The Contractor agrees that if in the performance of this Contract it discovers a potential OCI, a prompt and full disclosure shall be made in writing to the Contracting Officer. This disclosure shall include a description of the actions the Contractor has taken, or proposes to take, to avoid or mitigate such conflicts.

H-5 SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENT REGARDING NON-DISCLOSURE OF

INFORMATION

Data includes all data, information and software, regardless of the medium (e.g. electronic or paper) and/or format in which the data exists, and includes data which is derived from, based on, incorporates, includes or refers to such data. In the course of performing this Contract, the Contractor may be or may have been given access to: Source Selection Information [as defined in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 3.104]; data that has been assigned (or data that is generated by the Contractor that should be assigned) a contractually required or other Government distribution control (such as a Distribution Statement prescribed in DoD Directive 5230.24);

and/or data that has been given a restrictive legend by the source of the data such as “business sensitive,”

“proprietary,” “confidential,” or word(s) with similar meaning that impose limits on the use and distribution of the data (see for example FAR 52.215-1(e)). All such data with limitations on use and distribution are collectively referred to herein as “protected data.”

This Special Contract Requirement supplements and implements Defense FAR Supplement (DFARS) 252.204-

7000, “DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION.” As a condition to receiving access to protected data, the

Contractor shall: (1) prior to having access to protected data, obtain the agreement of the source of the protected data to permit access by the Contractor to such protected data; (2) use the protected data solely for the purpose of performing duties under this Contract unless otherwise permitted by the source of the protected data; (3) not disclose, release, reproduce or otherwise provide or make available the protected data, or any portion thereof, to any employee of the Contractor unless and until such employee has been informed of the restrictions on use and distribution of the protected data and agreed in writing to conform with the applicable restrictions; (4) not disclose, release, reproduce or otherwise provide or make available the protected data, or any portion thereof, to any non-Government person or entity (including, but not limited to, affiliates, subcontractors, successors and assignees of the Contractor), unless the Contracting Officer and the source of the protected data have given prior written approval (which shall be conditioned upon the person receiving the protected data having been informed of the restrictions on use and distribution of the protected data and having agreed in writing to conform with the applicable restrictions; (5) establish and execute safeguards to prevent the unauthorized use or distribution of protected data.

Any unauthorized use, disclosure or release of protected data may result in substantial criminal, civil and/or administrative penalties to the Contractor or to the individual who violates a restriction on use or distribution of protected data. Any agreement with another company regarding access to that company’s protected data shall not create any limitation on the Government or its employees with regard to such data. A copy of each executed company and individual non-disclosure agreement relating to this Contract shall be provided to the Contracting

Officer’s Representative (COR).

Appropriate restrictive legends will be included by the Contractor on any copies and reproductions made of all or any part of the protected data and any data that is derived from, based upon, incorporates, includes or refers to the protected data. When the Contractor’s need for such protected data ends, the protected data shall be returned promptly to the source of the protected data with notice to the COR. However, the obligation not to use, disclose, release, reproduce or otherwise provide or make available such protected data, or any portion thereof, shall continue, even after completion of the Contract, for so long as required by the terms of any agreement pertaining to the protected data between the Contractor and the source of the protected data, or (in the case of

Government information) for so long as required by applicable law and regulation. Any actual or suspected unauthorized use, disclosure, release, or reproduction of protected data or violation of this agreement, of which the company or any employee is or may become aware, shall be reported promptly (within one business day after discovery and confirmation) to the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR).

H-6 LEVEL OF EFFORT

(a) In the performance of this contract, the Contractor agrees to provide the level of effort specified in accordance with this provision.

(b) It is understood and agreed that the rate of direct labor hours expended each month may fluctuate in pursuit of the technical objective, provided such fluctuation does not result in the use of the total hours of effort prior to the expiration of the term of the contract. The Contractor is required to notify the Contracting Officer when

85% of the total level of effort has been expended.

(c) If, during the term of the contract, the Contractor finds it necessary to accelerate the expenditure of direct labor to such an extent that the total hours of effort specified would be used prior to the expiration of the term, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing setting forth the acceleration required, the probable benefits which would result, and an offer to undertake the acceleration at no increase in the estimated cost or fixed fee together with an offer setting forth a proposed level of effort, cost breakdown, and proposed fixed-fee for continuation of the work until expiration of the term of the contract. If the maximum amount specified in the contract is not adequate to accommodate the anticipated accelerated expenditure of direct labor, the Contractor shall also include in its offer a proposed increase of the maximum amount, cost breakdown, and proposed fixed-fee for the increase. The offer shall provide that the work proposed will be subject to the terms and conditions of this contract and any additions or changes required by current law, regulations, or directives, and that the offer, with a written notice of acceptance by the Contracting Officer, shall constitute a binding contract. The Contractor shall not accelerate any effort until receipt of such written approval by the Contracting Officer. Any agreement to accelerate will be formalized by modification of the order and, if necessary, the contract.

(d) The Contracting Officer may, by written order, direct the Contractor to accelerate the expenditure of direct labor such that the labor hours of effort specified therein would be used prior to the expiration of the term.

This order shall specify the acceleration required and the resulting revised term. The Contractor shall acknowledge this order within ten days of receipt.

(e) If the total level of effort specified is not provided by the Contractor during the term of the contract, the

Contracting Officer shall either

(i) reduce the fixed fee of the contract as follows:

Fee Reduction = Fixed Fee X (Required LOE Hours - Expended LOE Hours)

Required LOE Hours or;

(ii) subject to the provisions of the clause of this contract entitled "Limitation of Cost," require the Contractor to continue to perform the work until the total number of hours of direct labor specified in the contract shall have been expended, at no increase in the fixed fee of the contract.

(f) In the event the Government fails to fully fund the contract in a timely manner, the term of the contract may be extended accordingly with no change to cost or fee. If the Government fails to fully fund the contract, the fee will be adjusted in direct proportion to that effort which was performed.

(g) Notwithstanding any of the provisions of the above paragraphs, the Contractor may furnish labor hours up to five percent in excess of the total direct labor hours specified in the contract provided that the additional effort is furnished within the term hereof, and provided further that no increase in the estimated cost or fixed-fee is required, and no adjustment in the fixed-fee shall be made provided that the Contractor has delivered at least

95% of the level of effort specified in the contract.

(h) It is understood that the mix of labor categories provided by the Contractor under the contract, as well as the distribution of effort among those categories, may vary considerably from the initial mix and distribution of effort, which was estimated by the Government or proposed by the Contractor.

(i) Nothing herein shall be construed to alter or waive any of the rights or obligations of either party pursuant to the Clause entitled "Limitation of Costs" or "Limitation of Funds," either of which incorporated herein applies to this contract.

(k) The anticipated total level of effort is 54,625 hours.
