TUG BASE PERIOD OPTION 1 OPTION 2 OPTION 3 OPTION 4
Service Rate Hourly Rate
(a) Tug Service Rate: The Tug Service Rate shall be earned for the first hour of service, such service to be calculated from the date and time the tug reports in all aspects ready to perform at the location, time and date (but no earlier than the date and time specified in the order, unless agreed upon by the Government) specified in the Government order. The service rate shall be inclusive of the estimated fuel consumption costs. Consecutive work shall not incur more than one Service Rate charge unless the Tug is released from government control between work.
(b) Hourly Rate: Each job shall earn the Hourly Rate, pro-rated to the nearest quarter hour, after completion of the first hour of service. The Hourly Rate will continue to be earned until the tug is dismissed by the Government. This rate applies for all types of services that the tug can perform and that are contemplated by this contract. This rate includes all of the following items: overtime (including but not limited to crew overtime/penalty time); penalty time; bonuses; payments; emoluments payable to the Master, Officers and crew for services under this contract; the cost, if any, of transit to and from the location; and any other costs incurred in responding to the Government's order.

Any tug nominated to be a substitute tug under this paragraph shall result in no additional cost to the Government, shall have substantially the same characteristics and shall be similarly fitted and otherwise equal or superior in performance to the tug for which it is being substituted. The use of the substituted tug shall result in no operational delay and shall not otherwise excuse any other performance required under this Contract.
Owner’s notification concerning substitution of tug must be made in writing to the Contracting Officer a minimum of 48 hours before non-availability of the contract tug except where urgency precludes written notice. If urgency precludes written notice, Owner shall give oral notice and shall confirm in writing within 48 hours of receipt of Government's order. Notice of substitution shall include all information required for Government to make a determination that the substitute meets the Government’s minimum requirements.
Government’s notice of acceptance or rejection of the substitute tug shall be made within a reasonable time following Owner's nomination thereof, provided that the Government is furnished sufficient information on which to base such a determination. Silence of the Government shall not be construed as acceptance of any nominated tug.

15. Insurance
15.1 Vessel Owner’s Insurance.
15.1.1 During the full period of this Charter Party, Contractor shall maintain marine insurance coverage on the Vessel, including:
i. Hull and Machinery,
ii. Protection and Indemnity (P&I) (including pollution liability),
iii. War Risk Hull and Machinery,
iv. War Risk Protection and Indemnity (P&I), and
v. Second Seaman’s War Risk.
Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 15.1.3 below or as expressly provided in Section 15.1.3 below or as expressly provided in the section entitled “War” , all expenses for such insurance coverage (including but not limited to premiums, additional premiums, calls, commissions, overspill claims, advancements, assessments, deductibles, and all other insurance costs regardless of Charterer or Contractor fault, neglect, action or inaction, or cause of claim or cost whatsoever) shall be for Contractor’s account and shall be deemed to be included in the hire payable under this Charter Party. Within 10 calendar days following award ofthis contract, Contractor shall provide the Contracting Officer copies of policies or cover notes evidencing that required coverage has been obtained and demonstrating that the coverage is consistent with the requirements of this section. Contractor’s failure to provide the required policies or cover notes may be considered material breach of this contract.
Contractor shall make insurance claims under applicable policies for all damages, injuries, or claims arising from or related to this charter when directed by Charterer regardless of Charterer’s fault, neglect, action, inaction, or breach of clauses, obligations or warranties (express, implied or otherwise) of this charter contract.
15.1.2 Contractor shall obtain an endorsement on all of Contractor’s insurance policies by which Contractor’s Insurer “waives all rights of subrogation against the United States of America up to an amount of $350,000,000.
15.1.3 If Vessel is sent beyond the limits of American Institute Trade Warranties under this Charter Party, the Charterer agrees to reimburse the Contractor for the actual extra cost of additional premiums and/or increased deductible levels to the extent such extra cost is occasioned by the Vessel’s trading beyond such limits. Contractor shall immediately notify Charterer whenever any sailing orders will send the Vessel beyond such limits, shall identify to Charterer any anticipated additional cost of insurance relating thereto, and shall obtain Charterer’s approval to proceed beyond such limits prior to doing so. If Contractor fails to provide the notifications required or to obtain Charterer’s informed prior approval, Charterer shall not be required to reimburse the Contractor for the costs described in this paragraph. The issuance of sailing orders, by itself, does not constitute approval in advance by Charterer.
15.1.4 All policies shall contain an endorsement stating that “in the event Insurer receives from Vessel Owner any notice of cancellation or any notice of material change to the policy or its coverage, the cancellation or change shall not be effective until 30 days after written notice thereof is provided to Charterer’s Contracting Officer by the Insurer (unless such change is directed by the Charterer’s Contracting Officer).” Additionally, Contractor shall immediately notify Charterer of any change whatsoever in coverage.
15.2 Charterer Named Additional Assured on Owner’s Hull Policy, War Risk Hull Policy, Protection and Indemnity (P&I), War Risk P&I, and Second Seaman’s War Risk Policy.
15.2.1 The United States of America (as Charterer) shall be named as an additional assured with waiver of subrogation under the Contractor’s Hull and Machinery policy (and Increased Value policy if applicable), War Risk Hull and Machinery policy, Protection and Indemnity (P&I), War Risk P&I, and Second Seaman’s War Risk policy. Within 10 calendar days following award of this contract, Contractor shall provide the Contracting Officer copies of policies or cover notes evidencing that the required coverage has been obtained. Contractor’s failure to provide the required policies or cover notes may be considered material breach of this contract.
15.2.2 “Other than owner” and “as owner” limitations. If Contractor’s Hull and Machinery policy (and Increased Value policy if applicable), War Risk Hull and Machinery policy, Protection and Indemnity (P&I), War Risk P&I, or Second Seaman’s War Risk policy contain(s) any provision limiting coverage under the policy only to liabilities arising as owner of the vessel, Contractor shall arrange for such limiting provision to be stricken from the policy.
15.2.2.1 If Contractor’s Hull and Machinery policy (and Increased Value policy if applicable), War Risk Hull and Machinery policy, Protection and Indemnity (P&I), War Risk P&I, or Second Seaman’s War Risk policy contain(s) any provision designed to limit the effect of striking “other than owner” or “as owner” provisions, such provisions shall also be amended to ensure Charterer is provided full benefit of the insurance for its acts as Charterer.
15.2.3 Limitations of Coverage to U.S. Limitation of Shipowners’ Liability Act (or similar) limitation amounts. If Contractor’s Hull and Machinery policy (and Increased Value policy if applicable), War Risk Hull and Machinery policy, and/or Second Seaman’s War Risk policy contain(s) any provision(s) limiting maximum payment to Owner in any instance to the amount to which Owner is able to limit Owner’s liability pursuant to the U.S. Limitation of Shipowners’ Liability Act of 1851, the 1976 Convention on Limitation of Liability for Maritime Claims, or any similar law, Contractor shall arrange for such limiting language to be stricken or amended to ensure the policy or policies are not similarly limited in payment or coverage amount with respect to coverage afforded the United States of America as additional assured Charterer.
15.3 Time Charterer Protection and Indemnity (P&I) with P&I War Risk Coverage.
15.3.1 Contractor shall obtain a Time Charterer Protection and Indemnity policy/entry with P&I War Risk coverage for the United States of America (as Charterer) with coverage amount of $350,000,000 and covering all risks typically covered by Time Charterer Protection and Indemnity entries with P&I War Risk coverages in Protection and Indemnity associations that are members of the International Group. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the section entitled “War,” all expense of such policy/entry described in this section (including but not limited to premiums, additional premiums, calls, commissions, overspill claims, advancements, assessments, deductibles, and all other insurance costs regardless of Charterer or Contractor fault, neglect, action or inaction, or cause of claim or cost whatsoever) shall be for Contractor’s account and shall be deemed to be included in the hire payable under this Charter Party. Within 10 calendar days following award of this contract, Contractor shall provide the Contracting Officer a copy of the policy. Contractor’s failure to provide the required copy of the policy may be considered material breach of this contract. Contractor shall make insurance claims under the Time Charterer Protection and Indemnity policy/entry described in this section when directed by Charterer.
15.3.2 Charterer shall not be obliged to declare to the insurer all ships chartered by it. Contractor will advise the insurer that the Charterer will not declare all ships chartered by it to the insurer, and shall obtain an endorsement on the policy stating, “the United States of America, as charterer, is not required to declare to [insert insurer name] all ships chartered by it.”
15.4 Contractor to Indemnify. If Contractor fails to name the United States as additional assured with waiver of subrogation on Contractor’s Hull and Machinery policy (and Increased Value policy if applicable), War Risk Hull and Machinery policy, or Second Seaman’s War Risk policy; or fails to obtain for the United States the Time Charterer P&I policy/entry with War Risks coverage; the Contractor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Charterer for all liability, costs, or expenses which would have been covered by the required insurance policies/coverage.
15.4.1 Contractor shall not, through action or inaction (including but not limited to failing to meet all conditions of a policy, causing through action or inaction cessation of a policy, or violating any warranty of a policy), vitiate or void the coverage afforded by the Contractor’s Hull and Machinery policy (and Increased Value policy if applicable), War Risk Hull and Machinery policy, Protection & Indemnity policy, War Risk Protection & Indemnity policy, and Second Seaman’s War Risk policy, or the coverage afforded by the Time Charterer Protection and Indemnity policy/entry with P&I War Risk coverage. If any such policy is vitiated or voided by Contractor’s action or inaction, Contractor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Charterer for all liability, costs, or expenses which would have been covered by the policy had such policy remained in full force and effect.
15.4.2 In the event Contractor fails to strike “other than owner” or “as owner” provisions per Section 15.2.2, fails to amend supplemental limiting provisions as described in Section 15.2.2.1, or fails to amend provisions limiting payment or coverage as described in Section 15.2.3, Contractor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Charterer for all liability, costs, or expenses which would have been covered by Contractor’s Hull and Machinery policy (and Increased Value policy if applicable), War Risk Hull and Machinery policy, Protection & Indemnity policy, War Risk Protection & Indemnity policy, and Second Seaman’s War Risk policy had such provisions been stricken or amended as required.
16. War
16.1 Voyage Instructions. Operating limits of the vessel subject to this contract shall be worldwide. 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 Contractor 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 Contractor indemnification against said risks pursuant to Public Law 85‐804 (72 Stat. 972, August 28, 1958).
16.2 The Contractor shall immediately notify the Charterer:
(1) whenever any sailing orders will result in the 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 Hull War, Strikes, Terrorism and Related Perils Listed Areas);
(2) 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 Hull War, Strikes, Terrorism and Related Perils Listed Areas) or changes to War Risk premiums, charges, or deductibles; or
(3) 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 Contractor shall ensure that the insurers provide it relevant information in a timely manner. If the Contractor has given this required notice to the Charterer, the Charterer will reimburse the Contractor 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 Hull War, Strikes, Terrorism and Related Perils Listed Areas 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 Contractor 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.
16.3 Additional Wage Costs. The Charterer shall reimburse Contractor 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. Contractor 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.
17. Government War Risk Insurance/Indemnity
17.1 General. Upon receipt of notice and instruction from the Contracting Officer, 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 under the Contractor’s commercial War Risk coverage, the Contractor 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 Hull War, Strikes, Terrorism and Related Perils Listed Areas , as the case may be, subject to resumption of its commercial War Risk insurance upon exiting such area(s). In such instances, the Contractor shall accept the Government’s indemnity or War Risk insurance, whichever is applicable, in lieu of such commercial War Risk insurance. The Contractor 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 Contractor shall retain the same risks, such as deductibles (if any), that it has under its commercial insurance.
17.2 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 Hull War, Strikes, Terrorism and Related Perils Listed Areas , or otherwise excluded under the Contractor’s commercial marine War Risk trading warranties, and which are designated by notice from the Contracting Officer to the Contractor:
(1) War Risk Hull Coverage, insured at the hull value stated in Vessel’s current commercial hull and increased-value policies effective on Charter Party date, a copy of which current hull policies shall be furnished to Charterer;
(2) War Risk Protection and Indemnity coverage, insured at a value of either (i) 150% of the hull value stated in Vessel's current commercial hull policy effective on Charter Party date or (ii) $50,000,000, whichever is greater but in no event exceeding that amount of commercial P&I cover which was in effect for the Vessel on Charter Party date;
(3) War Risk Blocking and Trapping Coverage;
(4) War Risk Second Seaman’s coverage, the principal sum of which shall be $200,000 per Master, Officer, or crew member (this is also the loss-of-life benefit);
(5) War Risk Loss-of-Hire coverage, if a commercial loss-of-hire policy was in effect on the Vessel on Charter Party date. The sum insured by this policy, including the amount of lost time that is covered, will be equivalent to the levels insured by the Vessel's commercial policy. However, the amount insured by this policy will in no event exceed the hire rate (effective under this Charter Party when the loss of time began), over a maximum duration of 90 days lost. This maximum amount will be further subject to a deductible equivalent to that in place under the Vessel's commercial policy.
17.3 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 Contractor 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.
18. Strike Contigency Plan:
(a) Per Attachment A – Submission Package, the contractor shall provide and maintain a strike contingency plan that describes how services will be provided if there is a labor strike or any other deficiency of Master or crewmembers. The plan must be practicable and must clearly state the means and method for vessel manning during a strike or labor action and for providing services in the face of disruptive measures typical of a strike situation. Award of the contract shall indicate the Contracting Officer’s approval of the plan, whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(b) The contractor shall update the plan as necessary but no less frequently than yearly and not later than 30 days before the last day for the exercise of each option to extend contract term.

52.212-1 (ADDENDUM) ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS--COMMERCIAL ITEMS
In accordance with FAR 12.302 (Tailoring of provisions and clauses for the acquisition of commercial items) the following shall take precedence over the un-tailored paragraphs.
a. This procurement is a FAR Part 12 acquisition being conducted under the FAR SubPart 13.5, Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial items." After receipt of proposals the Government may, with or without notice, negotiate with and, if desired, seek proposal revisions from as many or as few offerors as it, in its discretion, deems appropriate.
b. Proposal and proposal modifications (e.g., proposal extension) may also be submitted electronically in response to this solicitation by e-mail directly kolby.harold@navy.mil the designated E-mail addresses and inboxes for receipt of E-mail submissions. No other electronic means of submission, used in whole or in combination with E-mail, is permitted.
c. Proposals/modifications must be submitted via e-mail in Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) format, and must be compatible with Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.0 or later version. Proposals/modifications must contain either a verifiable electronic signature (e.g. PKI enable certificate), or a scanned image of the handwritten signature of the Offeror or Offeror's agent. Offerors are advised that delays in the receipt of e-mail do occur, and the Offeror is solely responsible for timely receipt of offers by the Government regardless of any problems or delays related to computer hardware or software systems including, but not limited to, servers and firewalls.

Offerors are advised that the Government may be unable to receive other types of electronic files (e.g., .zip files) or files in excess of 20 megabytes. For electronic proposal/modifications, the only acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of offers is the receipt of the E-mail proposal, readable, in its entirety in the designated E-mail inbox by the due date and time for proposal submission.
Any other timestamp or meta-data of the Offeror's sent e-mail shall not be construed as sufficient documentation of the Government's receipt of an e-mailed offer. It is the Offeror's responsibility to ensure the proposal has been received in the designated E-mail inbox by the due date and time.
d. All Questions regarding the RFP shall be submitted to kolby.harol@navy.mil. All questions must be submitted no later than 14:00 EDT 24 July 2017.
