B19.27-3 ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT - MARKET PRICE (PC&S) (ETHANOL) (DLA ENERGY

APR 2020)

(a) WARRANTIES. The Contractor warrants that--

(1) The unit prices set forth in this contract do not include allowances for any portion of the contingency covered by this contract text; and

(2) The prices to be invoiced hereunder for listed items shall be computed in accordance with the conditions of this contract text.

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

(1) Award price means the unit price accepted by the Government for the item of supply identified by the item number.

(2) Base market price means the industry publication, Contractor’s posted price, or the Contractor’s supplier’s price to be used in determining an economic price adjustment of the award price of an individual product for the market area and time period specified in this contract text. The base market price is shown in paragraph (g), Column V of the Market Indicator Table and is the price from which economic price adjustments are calculated pursuant to this contract text. The Contractor will propose a base market price which is subject to review by the Government to ensure it accurately reflects market conditions.

(3) Adjusting market price means the market price in affect on the date of delivery and that will be used to determine the change from the base market price (see Column V of the Table below).

(4) Date of delivery means--

(i) FOR TANKER OR BARGE DELIVERIES.

(A) F.O.B. ORIGIN. The date and time the vessel commences loading.

(B) F.O.B. DESTINATION. The date and time the vessel commences discharging.

(ii) FOR ALL OTHER TYPES OF DELIVERIES. The date the product is received on a truck-by-truck basis.

(c) PRICE ADJUSTMENTS. The Contractor’s price change notification shall be submitted in writing within 5 calendar days of such change. Any resultant price changes shall be provided via notification through contract modifications.

(1) CHANGE IN SUPPLIER’S PRICE. The price change notification shall include a copy of the Contractor's supplier's notice or invoice, which clearly shows the supplier's name, the increase/decrease in price or invoice, the applicable product, and the effective date of the change.

(2) CHANGE IN CONTRACTOR’S POSTED PRICE. The price change notification documentation shall be sufficient to justify such change and shall include, but not be limited to, the actual supplier-published fuel prices

(rack, terminal, truck, etc.) clearly annotated for the fuel type to be procured and the effective date of the price change.

(3) In the event the Contracting Officer determines the justification is insufficient to warrant such a change in the supplier’s price or the Contractor’s posted price, the Contractor will be notified within 3 working days of DLA

Energy’s receipt of the price change notification. The Contractor shall continue performance under this contract until the situation is resolved in accordance with paragraph (d), Disputes, of the CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS -

COMMERCIAL ITEMS clause of this contract.

(4) CHANGE IN INDUSTRY PUBLICATION PRICE. In the event that there is a change in the industry publication price used to effect a change in base market price, the Contractor will notify the Contracting Officer in writing and include substantiating documentation.

(5) CALCULATIONS. The prices payable hereunder shall be determined by adjusting the award price by the same number of cents, or fractions thereof, that the base market price increases or decreases per like unit of measure between the date shown in Column V of the Table below and the date of delivery. All arithmetical calculations, including the final adjusted unit price, shall be carried to six decimal places, truncated.

(6) DECREASES. If the Contractor fails to notify the Contracting Officer of any decrease in the base market price within the allotted 5-day period, such decrease shall apply to 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 from the base market price, the Contractor shall be charged interest on such overpayment from the date of the overpayment to the date reimbursement is received from the Contractor for the overpayment in accordance with paragraph (d), Disputes, of the CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS -

COMMERCIAL ITEMS clause of this contract.

(7) INCREASES. Any increase in award price as a result of an increase in the base market price shall apply to all deliveries made on or after the date of receipt by the Contracting Officer of written notification from the

Contractor of such increase in accordance with paragraph (c) above. However, no notification incorporating an increase in an award price shall be executed pursuant to this contract text until the increase has been verified by the Contracting

Officer.

(8) FAILURE TO DELIVER. Notwithstanding any other conditions 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, or is the result of an allocation made in accordance with the terms of the ALLOCATION clause of this contract, in which case the contract shall be amended to make an equitable extension of the delivery schedule.

(9) UPWARD CEILING ON ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT. The Contractor agrees that the total increase in any award price shall not exceed percent of the award price in any applicable program year (whether it is a single year or a multiyear program), except as provided hereafter:

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

(ii) If an actual increase in the base market price would raise an award 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.

(d) REVISION OF MARKET PRICE INDICATOR. If any applicable market price indicator (industry publication price, supplier’s price, or Contractor’s posted price) is discontinued, its method of derivation is altered substantially, or the Contracting Officer determines that the market price indicator consistently and substantially failed 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 clause of this contract.

(e) EXAMINATION OF RECORDS. The Contractor agrees that the Contracting Officer or designated representatives shall have the right to examine the Contractor's books, records, documents, and other data the Contracting Officer deems necessary to verify Contractor adherence to the conditions of this contract text.

(f) FINAL INVOICE. The Contractor shall include a statement on the final invoice that the amounts invoiced hereunder have applied all decreases required by this contract text.
