The Contracting Officer may issue oral orders that will be confirmed in writing.

The fuel provided will be automotive, truck, and generator diesel fuel rated at a minimum

Cetane of 45.0 and unleaded gasoline with a minimum rating of 91.0. The quality of the required fuel to be delivered to the U.S. Government must be certified by the Government of the

Democratic Republic of Congo, and stored in the national distribution company SEP’s tanks. For supply and delivery of the fuel, the Contractor shall be paid the fixed price per unit as listed above.

Delivery:

The Contractor shall deliver fuel to the U.S. Embassy locations at 310 Avenue Des Aviateurs and 498 Avenue Colonel Lukusa in Kinshasa/Gombe, Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Delivery trucks must arrive between the hours of 0800 and 1100 or 1300 and 1500 Monday through Thursday and 0800 and 1030 on Friday, with the exception of holidays.

The contractor shall deliver any order within two

(2) business days after order placement. Any contractor personnel involved with the delivery of the oil shall comply with Embassy regulations for receiving supplies. The Contracting Officer's

Representative (COR) will be responsible for instructing contractor personnel at the time deliveries are made. The driver of the tanker truck must submit an invoice to the COR for approval at the time any delivery is made.

Price Adjustment:

Democratic Republic of the Congo.

(b) To request an adjustment in price, the Contractor must provide written notification of the price change to the Contracting Officer at least one week before the new price is to be effective.

This notification must be accompanied by a copy of the official announcement of the price

SCG50016Q0003 Fuel Purchase and Delivery Page 8 change, showing the new price and its effective date. The officer or general partner of the

Contractor having overall responsibility for the Contractor's affairs shall certify the submission by written signature.

(c) The U.S. Government will make no adjustment to the contract price that relates to any wages, overhead, fixed costs, general and administrative expenses, materials, or profit.

(d) The Contractor may not request an adjustment under this clause after final payment has been made under this contract.

(e) This clause shall only apply to laws enacted by the government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo which meet the criteria set forth above. The U.S. Government will make no adjustments in contract price due to currency devaluations or fluctuations in exchange rates.

(6) Compliance by a U.S. person resident in a foreign country or agreement by such person to comply with the laws of that country with respect to his or her activities exclusively therein, and such regulations may contain exceptions for such resident complying with the laws or regulations of that foreign country governing imports into such country of trademarked, trade named, or similarly specifically identifiable products, or components of products for his or her own use, including the performance of contractual services within that country, as may be defined by such regulations.
