*** End of Narrative A0000 ***

The purpose of this amendment (0001) is to:

1. Extend the CHS-5 Solicitation submission date from 10 October 2017 to 25 October 2017 at 2 p.m. (Eastern Time).

2. Revise the following paragraphs of Sections L and M of the CHS-5 RFP due to questions received from industry.

Section L Paragraph 1.0.1

Section L Paragraph 1.1.1

Section L Paragraph 1.3.1

Section L Paragraph 1.7.3.2

Section L Paragraph 1.7.3.4

Section L Paragraph 1.7.3.6

Section L Paragraph 1.10.3

Section L Paragraph 1.10.5.1

Section M Paragraph 1.0.7

Section M Paragraph 1.2.7.1.5

Section M Paragraph 1.2.7.1.6

The above mentioned paragraphs are amended in Sections L and M of the CHS-5 Solicitation.

3. Revise CHS-5 PWS paragraph 3.1.1(e) as set forth in Section J Attachment 0001. The new date of the PWS is 12 September 2017 Version

2.

4. Revise the PWS paragraph reference for Brand Name or Equal Items on CLINs 0001 through 0019 from PWS paragraph 3.4.2.7.1 to

3.4.2.8.1.

5. Revise the narrative on CDRL A006 by changing the CDRL reference from CDRL A005 to A006.

6. Rename Attachment 0012 in Section J from "Small Business Utilization Report" to "Small Business Participation Plan (SBPP)".

7. Revise any references for "Other than Small Business" to read "U.S. Other Than Small Businesses" in Section L, paragraphs 1.10.1, 1.10.4, 1.10.5, 1.10.5.1, 1.10.6, and Section M, paragraph 1.5.

8. Revise Section L, paragraph 1.10.1 and Section M, paragraph 1.5 to change the language "participation/commitment" to

"participation/utilization."

9. Disregard all references to the langauge "\*Riched 20 10.0.143 93" from the CHS-5 Solicitation. This language is the result of a system cliche in the Contract Writing System and has no relevance to the requirements or solicitation.

10. Remove the language "1013AA (RR RT 5 year) - Thales Proprietary" from the footer of CHS-5 Attachment 0007 titled, "CHS-5 Warranty

Input Sheet With CEA Tab." The inclusion of a footer was a mismarking and Attachment 0007 is a government generated document that contains no proprietary information.

11. Revise the Performance Completion Date on CLIN 9997, Contractor Manpower Reporting, from 31 October 2018 to "As Required".

12. Revise the contractor's instructions included in CDRL B008 Small Business Utilization Report as set forth in Section J, Exhibit

B008.

13. All other terms, instructions and conditions included in the CHS-5 Solicitation remain the same.
