1. EMERGENCY SITUATIONS AND TRAINING.

(a) General. In the event that the Owner is unwilling or unable to perform those duties as directed, or to timely respond to emergency situations, and upon determination by the Pacific Fleet Commander or his designated representative that the emergency so requires, the Owner agrees to relinquish custody and control of one (1) tug to the Government in order to allow the Government to respond to the emergency situation using the Owner’s tug/equipment augmented in whole or in part by a Government crew. Such determination shall be provided to the Tug Master or designated representative by the Contracting Officer or the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). The period of Government operation and control shall not exceed that time required to respond to the emergency and properly return the tug to Owner’s control.

(b) Mitigation. Owner’s release of the tug for emergency operation by the Government shall serve to mitigate

Owner's liability, if any, under the Termination for Cause clause of this contract. See FAR 52.212-4. The value of the release of tug to the Government shall be offset against the Contractor's liability under the Termination for Cause clause. During a period of partial or complete augmentation of crew by the Government, as a result of default, the Owner shall not be entitled to any payment of hire.

(c) Owner Responsibility. The Owner shall cooperate and provide assistance in reactivation of the tug from cold iron and provide any other assistance directed by the authorized Government representative(s).

(d) Government Responsibility. The Government shall be responsible for loss or damage to the tug during periods of complete crew augmentation by the Government. During periods of partial crew augmentation, the Government shall be liable for damages resulting from Government action in accordance with the Federal Tort Claims Act.

(e) Condition of Default. Any failure, untimely response, or refusal to perform any of the services outlined in this contract may be considered a condition of default under this contract, unless otherwise excepted.

(f) Training. The Owner shall provide the use of the Tug and master and crew to train Government personnel in the operation of the Tug as directed in writing by the Contracting Officer or COR; said writing to be provided at least 24 hours in advance of the training. The training shall not be “crew augmentation” for purposes of subsection (f)(1) of this section. The Owner shall not be relieved of responsibilities under the section titled "CONTRACT NOT A DEMISE" of this contract during training. See clause 52.212-4 Addendum A, paragraph 2(a).

(1) Such training shall include, but not be limited to, the full operation of the tug (e.g., reactivating from cold iron; underway operation; and towage of vessels/submarines). Training shall include hands-on exercises and shall be conducted to ensure that Government personnel are able to properly, effectively and safely augment or replace the Owner's crew. Training shall be of sufficient quality to allow for partial or complete augmentation of the contractor’s crew.

(2) Training shall take place during normal operating hours.

(3) The time spent training Government personnel and participating in exercises shall be accomplished by placing an order under Paragraph 9 of the Contract. Payment for the first hour of training Government personnel shall be at the service rate; subsequent hours shall be at the hourly rate.

2. EMERGENCY SITUATION TRAINING PLAN. No more than 30 days after this modification, the contractor shall submit a proposed training plan to meet the requirements of the Emergency Situation and Training clause. A final plan shall be submitted no later than 30 days after receipt of the Government comments on the proposed plan.

INSURANCE, WAR AND RISK

INSURANCE:

1. VESSEL OWNERS INSURANCE

(a) General: During the full period of this Contract, the Owner shall maintain commercially reasonable and standard marine insurance coverage on the Vessels, including Broad Form Tower’s Liability Insurance (including damage to the Tow) on each tug performing under this Contract, Hull and Machinery, Protection and Indemnity (P&I) (including Tower’s Protection and Indemnity Liability Insurance on each tug performing under this Contract), Pollution Liability, War Risk Hull and Machinery, War Risk P&I, and Second Seamen's War Risk and Government Personnel Training Insurance (shall cover hands-on operation of the vessel equipment by Government personnel while training to operate the tug under the Emergency Situations and Training clause). Except as provided herein, the Owner shall be responsible for the cost of such insurance, including deductibles, premia, additional premia, calls, commissions, advancements, assessments, and overspill claims where applicable. Within 10 calendar days following award of the contract, the Owner shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing that the required insurance has been obtained.

(b) Limitation of Liability: Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Charterer shall not be liable for any loss, damage, expense, cost, or liability whatsoever and howsoever incurred by the Owner or Vessel, or which are imposed upon the Owner or Vessel by operation of law. Any Amount due the Owner under paragraph (a) shall be subject to setoff by the Charterer to the extent of any amount recovered under insurance carried by the Owner, or to the extent of any amount recoverable under insurance required by paragraph (a).

(c) Cancellation or Material Change in Coverage: All policies shall contain an endorsement stating that “in the event of cancellation or any material change in policies adversely affecting the interest of the Government in such insurance, the cancellation or change shall not be effective until 30 days after written notice thereto the Contracting Officer.” Wording such as “will endeavor to mail notice” or “failure to mail such notices shall impose no obligation or liability” is not acceptable.

(d) Charterer Named Assured: The United States of America shall be named as an additional assured with waiver of subrogation under the Vessel’s Broad Form Tower’s Liability policy, Tower’s P&I policy, Hull and Machinery policy (and the Increased Value policy if applicable), the Vessel’s P&I entry, any additional pollution liability coverage, the Vessel’s War Risk Hull and Machinery policy including P&I, and Second Seaman’s War Risk.

2. WAR:

(a) Voyage Instructions: If the Vessel is ordered under this Charter Party to any port, place, or zone involved in a state of war, warlike operations or hostilities, civil strife, or piracy (whether there be a declaration of war or not) where it might be reasonably expected to be subject to capture, seizure, arrest, or hostile act by a belligerent power (whether de facto or de jure), pirate, or terrorist, it shall be unreasonable for the Owner not to prosecute said voyage if insurance against said risks is then available commercially or under a Government program, or if the Government offers the Owner indemnification against said risks pursuant to Public Law 85-804.

(b) The Vessel Owner shall immediately notify the Charterer: (i) whenever any sailing orders will result in a vessel subject to this contract being sent beyond the limits of the War Risk Trading Warranties of insurance policies required under this contract (to include entry into a war risk exclusion zone or when the vessel will enter, sail for, or deviate towards the territorial waters of any of the Countries or places, or any other waters described in the Lloyd’s Joint War Committee’s current List of Areas of Perceived Enhanced Risk); (ii) if there are any changes to the War Risk Trading Warranties of insurance policies required under this contract (including changes to the exclusion zones or the List of Areas of Perceived Enhanced Risk) or changes to War Risk premiums, charges, or deductibles; or (iii) whenever additional premium charges or costs will be incurred as a direct result of compliance with any sailing orders issued by the Charterer under this contract.

The Owner shall ensure that the insurers provide it relevant information in a timely manner. If the Owner has given this required notice to the Charterer, the Charterer will reimburse the Owner for the increase in costs (if any) of insurance premiums, charges, or deductibles which arise from the vessel sailing beyond the applicable War Risk Trading Warranties (including changes to the war risk exclusion zones) when entry into any exclusion zone or Area of Perceived Enhanced Risk under such insurance has been approved in advance by the Charterer. The issuance of sailing orders, by itself, does not constitute approval in advance by the Charterer. The Charterer may give the Owner notice and instructions concerning suspension of commercial War Risk insurance coverage and substitution of Government indemnity or Government War Risk insurance as detailed in the section entitled “Government War Risk Insurance/Indemnity” below.

(c) Additional Wage Costs: The Charterer shall reimburse Owner for the cost of provable additional master and crew wages (including all additional bonuses and payments required) to the extent that such additional costs arise directly from exposure of the Vessel, and/or Vessel’s master and crew, to the risks described in the paragraph entitled “Voyage Instructions” above. However, any of said wages or payments shall not exceed in amount that which would be payable, under applicable laws and regulations, to U.S. civil service mariners in the employ of the Military Sealift Command in a similar port, place, zone, or route. Owner shall notify Charterer of all anticipated additional wage costs prior to entering any location which would trigger such additional costs; and no such costs shall be reimbursable unless Charterer, after notification of such costs, provides approval to enter such location.

3. GOVERNEMENT WAR RISK INSURANCE / INDEMNITY

(a) General: Upon receipt of notice and instruction from the Contracting Officer, as specified in the last sentence of paragraph (b) of the section entitled “War” above, with respect to any area excluded by the War Risk Trading Warranties or included by the Lloyd’s Joint War Committee on the Hull War, Strikes, Terrorism and Related Perils Listed Areas (also known as Listed Areas of Perceived Enhanced Risk) under the Owner’s commercial War Risk coverage, the Owner shall, as soon as practicable, contact its insurance brokers or underwriters and arrange for the suspension of its commercial War Risk insurance upon entry of the vessel into, or extension of stay of the vessel in such area(s), or when the vessel will enter, sail for, or deviate towards the territorial waters of any of the Countries or places, or any other waters described in the Lloyd’s Joint War Committee’s current Listed Areas of Perceived Enhanced Risk, as the case may be, subject to resumption of its commercial War Risk insurance upon exiting such area(s). In such instances, the Owner shall accept the Government’s indemnity or War Risk insurance, whichever is applicable, in lieu of such commercial War Risk insurance. The Owner shall ensure that the suspension of its commercial War Risk coverage is coincident with the time that any Government indemnity or War Risk insurance becomes effective, and shall likewise ensure that its commercial War Risk insurance is resumed at the time when any Government indemnity or War Risk insurance becomes ineffective. The Owner shall retain the same risks, such as deductibles (if any), that it has under its commercial insurance.

(b) Government War Risk Insurance: Under the authority of 46 U.S.C. § 53905, the United States Maritime

Administration (MARAD), at the request of Commander, Military Sealift Command, may furnish the following war risk insurance coverage, which will be effective during the vessel’s transit under this Contract in areas which are in war risk exclusion zones, or waters described in the current Lloyd’s Joint War Committee Listed Areas of Perceived Enhanced Risk, or otherwise excluded under the Owner’s commercial marine War Risk trading warranties, and which are designated by notice from the Contracting Officer to the Owner:

(c) War Risk Protection and Indemnity insurance covering all liabilities up to an amount of $250,000,000; War

Risk Second Seaman’s coverage, the principal sum of which shall be $200,000 per Crew Member for loss of life.

(d) Government Indemnity: Under the authority of Public Law 85-804 (72 Stat. 972, August 28, 1958) and

Executive Order 10789, as amended by Executive Order 11610, the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary of the Navy may authorize the Contracting Officer to indemnify the Owner against loss from risks that would be covered by MARAD war risk coverage as set forth in the paragraph entitled “Government War Risk Insurance” directly above.

WAWF INSTRUCTIONS

MSC SPECIFIC WIDE AREA WORKFLOW (WAWF) INSTRUCTIONS (AUG 2012)

The information contained in this instruction is supplemental to DFARS 252.232-7006.

The information contained in the table in DFARS 252.232-7006 is for WAWF purposes only. Information included in DFARS 252.232-7006 and this WAWF instruction apply only to WAWF Invoicing and WAWF Receiving Reports. Contradictory information elsewhere in this contract, e.g. Ship to DoDAAC, shall be followed per the terms and conditions of the contract.

When entering the invoice into WAWF, the Contractor shall fill in the DoDAAC fields or DoDAAC extensions exactly as shown in the table in DFARS 252.232-7006. Fields that should not be filled in when entering the invoice into WAWF will be indicated with the direction, "Leave Blank."

In some situations the WAWF system will pre-populate the "Pay DoDAAC," "Admin By DoDAAC" and "Issue By DoDAAC." The Contractor shall verify that those DoDAACs automatically entered by the WAWF system match the information in the table in DFARS 252.232-7006. If these DoDAACs do not match, then the Contractor shall correct the field(s).

If Receiving Reports are required, ensure that the "Inspection" and "Acceptance" defaults of "destination" for both fields are not changed in the WAWF online interface.

The CLINs on the WAWF invoice shall be entered exactly as set forth in the contract document including CLIN number (e.g. 0001), Quantity (may be adjusted for actual quantity or dollar value delivered and invoiced), and Unit Price (e.g. $1.00). The dollar amounts on each CLIN or SubCLIN on the WAWF invoice shall reflect final performance values, but in no instance can the dollar amount for each CLIN or SubCLIN exceed what is specified in the contract document. The Contractor shall bill to the lowest level, e.g., the SubCLIN level. The Quantity and Unit of Measure fields must be filled out exactly as indicated in the CLINs and SubCLINs to reduce the possibility of the invoice being delayed or rejected during processing.

Before closing out of an invoice session in WAWF, but after submitting the document or documents, the Contractor will be given the option to send additional email notifications by clicking on the "Send More Email Notifications" link that appears on the page. The Contractor shall click on this link and add the Technical Point of Contact's (TPOC) or Contracting Officer's Representative's (COR) email address in the first email address block and add any other additional email addresses desired in the following blocks. This additional notification to the Government is important to ensure the acceptor/receiver is aware that the invoice documents have been submitted into the WAWF system.
