The Offeror is free to specifically include and price/cost those additional six (6), one-month options in their offer using a different pricing/costing method if they so choose, but failure to include any mention of those option months and their price/cost in their offer will be deemed by the Government to indicate the Government is to accept the pricing/costing method stated above in this paragraph.
