(2) The prices to be invoiced hereunder shall be computed in accordance with the provisions of this contract.

(b) DEFINITIONS. As used throughout this clause, the term--

(1) Award price means the unit price offered by the Contractor and set forth opposite the item in the Schedule.

(2) Reference price means the market price, this is either published in an independent publication or supplied by the

Contractor, with which the award price is to fluctuate. The reference price should be a market price for the same or similar product(s) as the item being purchased.

and

(iii) FOR ALL OTHER TYPES OF DELIVERIES. The date product is received.

(c) ADJUSTMENTS. The prices payable under this contract shall be the award price increased or decreased by the amount, determined according to the following formula, that the reference price shall have increased or decreased, to and including the date of delivery.

(1) The amount of increase or decrease in the award price shall be based on the same number of cents, or fraction thereof, that the reference price increases or decreases per like unit of measure.

(2) The reference price with which the award price for the listed item is to fluctuate (and which is more fully defined in the Table below) is--

[ ] (i) The low price published in __________________________________________________________.

(name of publication)

[ X] (ii) The average of the prices published in _______Platts Oilgram_____________________________.

[ ] (iii) The established price posted by ______________________________________________________ and

(name of company) published in _________________________________________________________.

(3) COMMERCIAL. For price adjustments utilizing commercial publications such as Platts Oilgram, etc., the reference price in effect on the date of delivery shall be that item‘s reference price that is in effect for the dates in the Table below. If an effective date is not cited in a publication, then the date of publication shall apply. An increase or decrease in any reference price published in a trade price service or in a commercial journal shall apply only to deliveries made on or after the effective date of such trade price service or commercial journal. In the event of a holiday for which an effective date is not used, the latest effective price(s) prior to the effective date shall be used. NOTE: Platts issues corrections to its published prices on a regular basis. Platts posts corrections to its website (www.platts.com) for its subscribers. If a correction to a reference price is found on the Platts website, all of the items that use that reference price will be corrected. DESC will correct any other reference prices, as notice of the correction is received.

DESC will work with the pricing services to determine the appropriate price, whenever an offeror or contractor can show that the price referenced should be reviewed.

(4) NONCOMMERCIAL (NOTIFICATION). For price adjustments utilizing a reference price indicator other than commercial publications such as Platts Oilgram, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer of any changes in the reference price in writing within 15 calendar days from the date thereof.

(i) INCREASES. Any increase in unit price as a result of an increase in reference price shall apply only to deliveries made on or after the date of receipt by the Contracting Officer of a written notification from the Contractor of such increase.

However, the prices payable under this contract shall in no event exceed the Contractor‘s posted or established selling price in effect on the http://www.platts.com/ date of delivery for the product supplied in the form of delivery made at the point of delivery. Also, no notification incorporating an increase in a contract unit price shall be executed pursuant to this clause until the increase has been verified by the Contracting Officer.

(ii) DECREASES. If the Contractor fails to notify the Contracting Officer of any decrease in the reference price, within the allotted 15 day period, such decrease shall apply to all deliveries made on or after the effective date of such decrease. However, if any overpayment is made to the Contractor as a result of the Contractor‘s failure to give timely notice to the Contracting Officer of any decrease in the established price, the Contractor shall be charged interest on such overpayment from the date of the overpayment to the date of reimbursement by the Contractor for the overpayment in accordance with the Disputes paragraph of the CONTRACT TERMS AND

CONDITIONS – COMMERICAL ITEMS clause of this contract.

The Contractor further warrants that, as of the current date, any differences between the unit prices of the line items identified in the Schedule and the Contractor's established price for like quantities of the nearest commercial equivalents of such contract items are due to compliance with contract specifications and to compliance with any requirements that this contract may contain for preservation, packaging, and packing beyond standard commercial practice.

Adjustments.

COMMERCIAL ITEMS clause of the this contract in which case the contract shall be amended to make an equitable extension of the delivery schedule.

(f) UPWARD CEILING ON ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT. The Contractor agrees that the total increase in any contract unit price pursuant to these economic price adjustment provisions shall not exceed 375 percent of the award price, except as provided hereafter:

(1) If at any time the Contractor has reason to believe that within the near future a price adjustment under the provisions of this clause will be required that will exceed the current contract ceiling price for any item, the Contractor shall promptly notify the

Contracting Officer in writing of the expected increase. The notification shall include a revised ceiling the Contractor believes is sufficient to permit completion of remaining contract performance, along with appropriate explanation and documentation as required by the

Contracting Officer.

(2) If an actual increase in the reference price would raise a contract unit price for an item above the current ceiling, the

Contractor shall have no obligation under this contract to fill pending or future orders for such item, as of the effective date of the increase, unless the Contracting Officer issues a contract modification to raise the ceiling. If the contract ceiling will not be raised, the Contracting

Officer shall so promptly notify the Contractor in writing.

The contract shall be modified to reflect such substitute effective on the date the indicator was discontinued, altered, or began to consistently and substantially fail to reflect market conditions. If the parties fail to agree on an appropriate substitute, the matter shall be resolved in accordance with the Disputes paragraph of the CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS – COMMERCIAL ITEMS clause of this contract.

Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2) (i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is "late" and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--

(A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of offers; or

(B) There is 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; or

(C) If this solicitation is a request for offers, it was the only offer received.

(ii) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer, that makes its terms more favorable to the

Government, will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(h) Offers submitted in response to this solicitation shall be in English and in U.S. dollars unless otherwise permitted by the solicitation.

(i) Offerors may submit revised offers only if requested or allowed by the Contracting Officer.

(j) CONTRACT AWARD.

(1) While the Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions, it reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary.

(2) If the Contracting Officer determines that negotiations are necessary, the Government will then evaluate offers and award a contract after conducting discussions with offerors whose offers have been determined to be within the competitive range. If the

Contracting Officer determines that the number of offers that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of offers in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated offers. Therefore, the offeror‘s initial offer should contain the offeror‘s best terms from a price and technical standpoint.

(3) Exchanges with offerors after receipt of a offer do not constitute a rejection or counteroffer by the Government.

(4) The Government intends to award a contract or contracts resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror(s) whose offer(s) conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, cost or price and other factors (including subfactors) specified elsewhere in this solicitation, considered.

(5) The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the Government‘s interest.

(6) The Government may waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.
