(iii) For all other types of deliveries. The date product is received.

(c) Adjustments.

(1) Subject to the wording of this contract text, the price payable shall be the base unit price in effect on the date of delivery increased or decreased by the same number of cents, or fraction thereof, that the adjusting market price applicable at date of delivery increases or decreases, per like unit of measure, from the base market price.

(2) Calculations. All calculations shall be rounded to six decimal places.

(3) Modifications. Any resultant price changes to the base market price and base unit price shall be executed by the Contracting Officer through a weekly price adjustment modification effective each Tuesday.

(4) Failure to deliver. Notwithstanding any other wording of this contract text, no upward adjustment shall apply to product scheduled under the contract to be delivered before the effective date of the adjustment, unless the Contractor’s failure to deliver according to the delivery schedule results from causes beyond the Contractor’s control and without its fault or negligence, within the meaning of paragraphs (f), Excusable Delays, and (m), Termination for Cause, of the Contract Terms And Conditions - Commercial Items clause of this contract, in which case the contract shall be amended to make an equitable extension of the delivery schedule.

(5) Upward ceiling on economic price adjustment. The Contractor agrees that the total increase in any contract unit price, pursuant to these economic price adjustment contract texts shall not exceed 45 percent of the original base unit price in any applicable program year (whether a single year or multiyear program), except as provided hereafter and agreed to by the Contracting Officer.

(i) If at any time the Contractor has reason to believe that within the near future a price adjustment under the wording of this contract text 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 which the Contractor believes is sufficient to permit completion of remaining contract performance, along with appropriate explanation and documentation as required by the Contracting Officer.

(ii) If an actual increase in the established market 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.

(6) Revision of market price indicator. In the event—

(i) Any applicable market price indicator is discontinued or its method of derivation is altered substantially; or

(ii) The Contracting Officer determines that the market price indicator consistently and substantially fails to reflect market conditions,-the parties shall mutually agree upon an appropriate and comparable substitute and 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 paragraph (d), Disputes, of the Contract Terms And Conditions - Commercial Items contract text of this contract.

(d) Conversion factors. If this contract text requires quantity conversions for economic price adjustment purposes, the conversion factors for applicable products, as specified in the DLA Energy conversion factor instruction, apply unless otherwise specified in the Schedule.

(e) Examination of records. The Contractor agrees that the Contracting Officer or designated representative shall have the right to examine the Contractor's books, records, documents, or other data the Contracting Officer deems necessary to verify Contractor adherence to the wording of this contract text.

E-0005 E35 NONCONFORMING SUPPLIES AND SERVICES (DLA ENERGY DEC 2011)

(a) DEFINITION: As used in this contract provision:

Deviation is defined as a written authorization granted after contract award and prior to manufacture of an item, to depart from a particular performance or design requirement of a contract, specification, or referenced document, for a specific number of units or specific period of time, normally the duration of the contract.

Extraordinary situation means the matter cannot await resolution until the next DLA Energy business day (0800 to 1630 hours EST, Monday through Friday, Federal Holidays excluded).

Waiver is defined as a written authorization granted after contract award to accept a configuration item or other designated item which, during production or after having been submitted for inspection, is found to depart from specified requirements, but nevertheless is considered suitable for use “as is” or after repair by an approved method. Approval is on a case-by-case basis and is normally for a set period of time.

(b) The Government may, at its discretion, accept nonconforming supplies or services. In such cases, the Contractor must obtain a deviation or waiver from the Contracting Officer prior to acceptance.

(c) The following procedures shall be used to request a deviation or waiver.

(1) Requests for deviations and waivers shall be submitted by the Contractor to the Contracting Officer with a copy to the appropriate Inspection Office referenced in the LIST OF INSPECTION OFFICES FOR DLA ENERGY CONTRACTS or QUALITY REPRESENTATIVE contract provision of this contract. Each request shall provide the following information: Contractor name; name and contact information of the contractor’s authorized negotiator; contract number; contract line item number and product nomenclature, clause or contract provision number, paragraph and subparagraph, as appropriate; the nature of the request; the reason for the request;

the corrective action being taken by the Contractor to correct and prevent recurrence of the condition(s) causing the nonconformance;

and an agreement to pay an equitable price reduction, estimated and proposed by DLA Energy, over and above the administrative fee, contingent on the impact of the specific circumstances on DLA Energy relative to approval of the deviation or waiver.

(2) In extraordinary situations, the Contractor may initially submit a verbal request for a waiver, but not a deviation, to the Contracting Officer. Written requests shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer by the next DLA Energy business day (0800 to 1630 hours EST, Monday through Friday, Federal Holidays excluded). If the Contracting Officer cannot be reached, the Duty Officer shall be contacted to provide the necessary information to the proper individuals as soon as possible. The Duty Officer's telephone number is

(800) 286-7633 or (703) 767-8420.

(3) If a deviation or waiver is granted, the contract will be modified to accept the nonconforming supplies or services and to require the Contractor to provide an equitable price reduction or other adequate consideration commensurate with the deviation or waiver being granted. If the situation warrants, a deviation or waiver may be granted without prior agreement on price reduction or other consideration, subject to agreement by the Contractor, or its representative, to subsequent negotiation. Such an agreement, in addition to a brief description of the terms of the deviation or waiver, shall be documented on the shipping document or other appropriate correspondence. After negotiations, failure to agree on adequate consideration shall be a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of the Disputes paragraph of the CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS – COMMERCIAL ITEMS contract provision of this contract.

(4) If a deviation or waiver is granted and the nonconforming supplies are accepted, then in no event will consideration be less than $500, which covers administrative costs, plus any additional cost of Government reinspection or retest, if necessary.

(5) If a deviation or waiver is granted modifying this contract, but the supplies accepted are subsequently determined to be in conformity with contract specifications, the Contractor shall still be obligated to pay the consideration originally agreed upon in support of the deviation or waiver. If, however, this consideration exceeds $1000, a second contract modification shall be issued reducing the Contractor's obligation to $1000 (the administrative cost of issuing the two required modifications), plus, if appropriate, any cost of Government reinspection or retest performed as a result of the deviation or waiver being granted.

(d) When notification of nonconforming supplies is received after the supplies have been accepted, and the Government determines not to exercise its right to reject or to require correction under the INSPECTION OF SUPPLIES – FIXED-PRICE, INSPECTION OF SERVICES – FIXED PRICE, or CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS – COMMERCIAL ITEMS contract provision, then in no event will consideration be less than $500 to cover administrative costs. This $500 fee is in addition to—

(1) Consideration commensurate with the extent of nonconforming supplies; and

(2) Cost of Government reinspection or retest, if necessary.

The administrative fee will apply to each claim letter issued for off-specification product delivered to an activity.

(e) Contractors shall be held responsible for payment of any fines or penalties imposed on a receiving activity by an environmental enforcement agency, resulting from the delivery of nonconforming supplies under a DLA Energy contract.

(f) Repeated tender of nonconforming supplies or services, including those with only minor defects, will be discouraged by appropriate actions, including, but not limited to, rejecting the supplies or services whenever feasible and documenting the Contractor's performance records.
