252.232-7007 Limitation of Government's Obligation. (Apr 2014)

As prescribed in 232.706-70, use the following clause:

LIMITATION OF GOVERNMENT'S OBLIGATION (APR 2014)

(a) Contract line item(s) [Contracting Officer insert after negotiations] is/are incrementally funded. For this/these item(s), the sum of $ [Contracting Officer insert after negotiations] of the total price is presently available for payment and allotted to this contract. An allotment schedule is set forth in paragraph (j) of this clause.

(b) For item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the Contractor agrees to perform up to the point at which the total amount payable by the Government, including reimbursement in the event of termination of those item(s) for the Government's convenience, approximates the total amount currently allotted to the contract. The Contractor is not authorized to continue work on those item(s) beyond that point. The Government will not be obligated in any event to reimburse the Contractor in excess of the amount allotted to the contract for those item(s) regardless of anything to the contrary in the clause entitled "Termination for Convenience of the Government." As used in this clause, the total amount payable by the Government in the event of termination of applicable contract line item(s) for convenience includes costs, profit, and estimated termination settlement costs for those item(s).

(c) Notwithstanding the dates specified in the allotment schedule in paragraph (j) of this clause, the Contractor will notify the Contracting Officer in writing at least ninety days prior to the date when, in the Contractor's best judgment, the work will reach the point at which the total amount payable by the Government, including any cost for termination for convenience, will approximate 85 percent of the total amount then allotted to the contract for performance of the applicable item(s). The notification will state (1) the estimated date when that point will be reached and (2) an estimate of additional funding, if any, needed to continue performance of applicable line items up to the next scheduled date for allotment of funds identified in paragraph (j) of this clause, or to a mutually agreed upon substitute date. The notification will also advise the Contracting Officer of the estimated amount of additional funds that will be required for the timely performance of the item(s) funded pursuant to this clause, for a subsequent period as may be specified in the allotment schedule in paragraph (j) of this clause or otherwise agreed to by the parties. If after such notification additional funds are not allotted by the date identified in the Contractor's notification, or by an agreed substitute date, the Contracting Officer will terminate any item(s) for which additional funds have not been allotted, pursuant to the clause of this contract entitled "Termination for Convenience of the Government."

(d) When additional funds are allotted for continued performance of the contract line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the parties will agree as to the period of contract performance which will be covered by the funds. The provisions of paragraphs (b) through (d) of this clause will apply in like manner to the additional allotted funds and agreed substitute date, and the contract will be modified accordingly.

(e) If, solely by reason of failure of the Government to allot additional funds, by the dates indicated below, in amounts sufficient for timely performance of the contract line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the Contractor incurs additional costs or is delayed in the performance of the work under this contract and if additional funds are allotted, an equitable adjustment will be made in the price or prices (including appropriate target, billing, and ceiling prices where applicable) of the item(s), or in the time of delivery, or both. Failure to agree to any such equitable adjustment hereunder will be a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of the clause entitled "Disputes."

(f) The Government may at any time prior to termination allot additional funds for the performance of the contract line item(s) identified in paragraph

(a) of this clause.

(g) The termination provisions of this clause do not limit the rights of the Government under the clause entitled "Default." The provisions of this clause are limited to the work and allotment of funds for the contract line item(s) set forth in paragraph (a) of this clause. This clause no longer applies once the contract is fully funded except with regard to the rights or obligations of the parties concerning equitable adjustments negotiated under paragraphs (d) and (e) of this clause.

(h) Nothing in this clause affects the right of the Government to terminate this contract pursuant to the clause of this contract entitled "Termination for Convenience of the Government."

(i) Nothing in this clause shall be construed as authorization of voluntary services whose acceptance is otherwise prohibited under 31 U.S.C. 1342.

(j) The parties contemplate that the Government will allot funds to this contract in accordance with the following schedule:

On execution of contract $ TBD (month) (day), (year) $ TBD (month) (day), (year) $ TBD (month) (day), (year) $ TBD (End of clause)

1. General Systems Engineering and Integration (GSE&I) deals with overall system definition; integration both within the system and with associated systems; analysis of system segment and subsystem design; design compromises and tradeoffs; definition of interfaces; review of hardware and software, including manufacturing and quality control; observation, review and evaluation of tests and test data; support of launch, flight test, and orbital operations; appraisal of the contractors' technical performance through meetings with contractors and subcontractors, exchange and analysis of information on progress and problems; review of plans for future work; developing solutions to problems; technical alternatives for reduced program risk; providing comments and recommendations in writing to the applicable DoD System Program Manager and /or Project Officer as an independent technical assessment for consideration for modifying the program or redirecting the contractor's efforts; all to the extent necessary to assure timely and economical accomplishment of program objectives consistent with mission requirements.

2. Technical Review (TR) includes the process of appraising the technical performance of the contractor through meetings, exchanging information on progress and problems, reviewing reports, evaluating presentations, reviewing hardware and software, witnessing and evaluating tests, analyzing plans for future work, evaluating efforts relative to contract technical objectives, and providing comments and recommendations in writing to the applicable Air Force Program Manager as an independent technical assessment for consideration for modifying the program or redirecting the contractor's efforts to assure timely and economical accomplishment of program objectives.

3. Technical Support (TS) deals with broad areas of specialized needs of customers for planning, system architecting, research and development, horizontal engineering, or analytical activities for which The Aerospace Corporation is uniquely qualified by virtue of its specially qualified personnel, facilities, or corporate memory. The categories of TS tasks are: Selected Research, Development, Test and Evaluation; Plans and System Architecture; Multi-Program Systems Enhancement; International Technology Assessment; and Acquisition Support.

b. In the performance of this contract, the contractor agrees to cooperate with The Aerospace Corporation by

1) responding to invitations from authorized U. S. Government personnel to attend meetings;

2) by providing access to technical information and research, development planning data such as, but not limited to, design and development analyses, test data and results, equipment and process specifications, test and test equipment specifications and procedures, parts and quality control procedures, records and data, manufacturing and assembly procedures, and schedule and milestone data, all in their original form or reproduced form and including top- level life cycle cost* data, where available;

3) by delivering data as specified in the Contract Data Requirements List;

4) by discussing technical matters relating to this program;

5) by providing access to contractor facilities utilized in the performance of this contract;

6) and by allowing observation of technical activities by appropriate technical personnel of The Aerospace Corporation. The Aerospace Corporation personnel engaged in GSE&I, TR, and/or TS efforts:

(i) are authorized access to all such technical information (including proprietary information) pertaining to this contract and may discuss and disclose it to the applicable DoD personnel in a program office;

(ii) are authorized to discuss and disclose such technical information (including proprietary information) to the commander or director of the various DoD organizations it supports and any U.S. Government personnel in a program office which, if not disclosed to the U.S.

Government, could have adverse effects on the reliability and mission success of a U.S. Government program; and (iii) Aerospace shall make the technical information (including proprietary information) available only to its Trustees, officers, employees, contract labor, consultants, and attorneys who have a need to know.

c. The contractor further agrees to include in all subcontracts a clause requiring compliance by subcontractor and supplier and succeeding levels of subcontractors and suppliers with the response and access and disclosure provisions of this Enabling Clause, subject to coordination with the contractor, except for subcontracts for commercial items or commercial services. This agreement does not relieve the contractor of its responsibility to manage the subcontracts effectively and efficiently nor is it intended to establish privity of contract between the Government or The Aerospace Corporation and such subcontractors or suppliers, except as indicated in paragraph (d) below.

d. The Aerospace Corporation shall protect the proprietary information of contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers in accordance with the Master Non-disclosure Agreement The Aerospace Corporation entered into with the Air Force, a copy of which is available upon request. This Master Non-disclosure Agreement satisfies the Nondisclosure Agreement requirements set forth in 10 U.S.C. (S)2320 (f)(2)(B), and provides that such contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers are intended third-party beneficiaries under the Master Non-disclosure Agreement and shall have the full rights to enforce the terms and conditions of the Master Non-disclosure Agreement directly against The Aerospace Corporation, as if they had been signatory party hereto. Each such contractor, subcontractor, or supplier hereby waives any requirement for The Aerospace Corporation to enter into any separate company-to-company confidentiality or other non-disclosure agreements.

e. Aerospace shall make the technical information (including proprietary information) available only to its Trustees, officers, employees, contract labor, consultants, and attorneys who have a need to know, and Aerospace shall maintain between itself and the foregoing binding agreements of general application as may be necessary to fulfill their obligations under the Master Non- disclosure Agreement referred to herein, and Aerospace agrees that it will inform contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers if it plans to use consultants, or contract labor personnel and, upon the request of such contractor, subcontractor, or supplier, to have its consultants and contract labor personnel execute non-disclosure agreements directly therewith.

f. The Aerospace Corporation personnel are not authorized to direct the contractor in any manner. The contractor agrees to accept technical direction as follows:

1. Technical direction under this contract will be given to the contractor solely by SMC.

2. Whenever it becomes necessary to modify the contract and redirect the effort, a change order signed by the Contracting Officer or a Supplemental Agreement signed by both the Contracting Officer and the contractor will be issued.

* Cost data is defined as information associated with the programmatic elements of life cycle (concept, development, production, operations, and retirement) of the system/program. As defined, cost data differs from "financial" data, which is defined as information associated with the internal workings of a company or contractor that is not specific to a project or program."
