Attachment 1 - M3.01 Price Data Sheet.doc

POSTING HISTORY INSTRUCTIONS

Clause B19.02 ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT (OVERSEAS) (DESC MAY 2007) establishes daily price escalation based on the published market escalator (Platts Oilgram Price Report Singapore) and applicable effective dates – for the base reference date of 19 January 2009. Historically, some offerors propose other published dates, a different frequency of escalation (weekly, monthly, etc.), or other market escalators. In accordance with Clause M3.01 and to facilitate evaluation and approval of escalator provisions, other than those specified in the clause, it is requested that the following information be provided with your offer for other than the established escalator:

1. Posting History: Please submit a one (1) year posting history, for each line item/product offered using a different posting, on the attached worksheet (Attachment 2 of the Offeror Submission Package). The one year posting history shall encompass a full year with the last month up to establishing the price on the base reference date 19 January 2009.

2. If your offer includes a different escalation period (weekly or bi-weekly) each price history should show average weighted monthly prices. Prices are to be weighted by the number of calendar days in each month that a price is in effect. The sum total of the “weightings” shall be divided by the number of days in the month.

A. EXAMPLE: (Weekly escalation requested every Monday – September 2008 price is based on the prices effective under the contract document on those dates). The following is a made up example:

1. Price changes weekly on each Monday or:

01 September 2008: $1.32

08 September 2008: $1.31

15 September 2008: $1.32

22 September 2008: $1.33

29 September 2008: $1.34

2. The average weighted monthly price for March 2008 would be computed as follows:

a. September 1-7: 7 days x $1.32 = $9.24

b. September 8-14: 7 days x $1.31 = $9.17

c. September 15-21: 7 days x $1.32 = $9.24

d. September 22-28: 7 days x $1.33 = $9.31

e. September 29-30: 2 days x $1.34 = $2.68

Total = $39.64 TOTAL 30 days (SEP) = $39.64 divided by 30 days = $1.321333

3. The weighted average price for September 2008 would be $1.321333

3. The Posting History Worksheet on the next page should be completed with weighted average postings by month for each product and line item offered that will use a different posting. Once again, this worksheet only needs to be completed if proposing a deviation from the method of escalation established in Clause B19.02.

4. For evaluation purposes only the exchange rate will not fluctuate in value but shall remain at $0.6810 for all offer price and price escalation purposes.
