GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. DEFINITIONS (ASPR 7-103.1) (Feb. 1962)
As used throughout this contract, the following
terms shall have the meanings set forth below:
(a) The term "head of the agency" or "Secre-
tary" means the Secretary, the Under Secretary,
any Assistant Secretary, or any other head or as-
sistant head of the executive or military department
or other Federal agency; and the term "his duly
authorized representative" means any person or
persons or board (other than the Contracting Offi-
cer) authorized to act for the head of the agency
or the Secretary.
(b) The term "Contracting Officer" means the
person executing this contract on behalf of the
Government, and any other officer or civilian em-
ployee who is a properly designated Contracting
Officer; and the term includes, except as otherwise
provided in this contract, the authorized repre-
sentative of a Contracting Officer acting within
the limits of his authority.
(c) Except as otherwise provided in this con-
tract, the term "subcontracts" includes purchase
orders under this contract.
2. CHANGES (ASPR 7-103.2) (Jan. 1958)
The Contracting Officer may at any time, by a
written order, and without notice to the sureties,
make changes, within the general scope of this
contract, in any one or more of the following: (i)
Drawings, designs, or specifications, where the sup-
plies to be furnished are to be specially manufac-
tured for the Government in accordance therewith;
(ii) method of shipment or packing; and (iii) place
of delivery. If any such change causes an increase
or decrease in the cost of, or the time required for
the performance of any part of the work under
this contract, whether changed or not changed by
any such order, an equitable adjustmnt shall be
made in the contract price or delivery schedule, or
both, and the contract shall be modified in writing
accordingly. Any claim by the Contractor for ad-
justment under this clause must be asserted within
30 days from the date of receipt by the Contractor
of the notification of change : Provided, however,
That the Contracting Officer, if he decides that the
facts justify such action, may receive and act upon
any such claim asserted at any time prior to final
payment under this contract. Where the cost of
property made obsolete or excess as a result of a
change is included in the Contractor's claim for
adjustment, the Contracting Officer shall have the
right to prescribe the manner of disposition of such
property. Failure to agree to any adjustment shall
be a dispute concerning a question of fact within
the meaning of the clause of this contract entitled
"Disputes." However, nothing in this clause shall
excuse the Contractor from proceeding with the
contract as changed. [Rev. No. 28, 1/28/58; Rev.
No. 30, 3/17/58.]
3. EXTRAS (ASPR 7-103.3) (July 1949)
Except as otherwise provided in this contract, no
payment for extras shall be made unless such
extras and the price therefor have been authorized
in writing by the Contracting Officer.
4. VARIATION IN QUANTITY (ASPR 7-103.4)
(July 1949)
No variation in the quantity of any item called
for by this contract will be accepted unless such
variation has been caused by conditions of loading,
shipping, or packing, or allowances in manufactur-
ing processes, and then only to the extent, if any,
specified elsewhere in this contract.
5. INSPECTION (ASPR 7-103.5) (May 1958)
(a) All supplies (which term throughout this
clause includes without limitation raw materials,
components, intermediate assemblies, and end prod-
ucts) shall be subject to inspection and test by the
Government, to the extent practicable at all times
and places including the period of manufacture,
and in any event prior to acceptance. [Rev. No.
33, 5/14/58.]
(b) In case any supplies or lots of supplies are
defective in material or workmanship or otherwise
not in conformity with the requirements of this
contract, the Government shall have the right
either to reject them (with or without instructions
as to their disposition) or to require their correc-
tion. Supplies or lots of supplies which have been
rejected or required to be corrected shall be removed
or, if permitted or required by the Contracting Offi-
cer, corrected in place by and at the expense of
the Contractor promptly after notice, and shall not
thereafter be tendered for acceptance unless the
former rejection or requirement of correction is
disclosed. If the Contractor fails promptly to re-
move such supplies or lots of supplies which are
required to be removed, or promptly to replace or
correct such supplies or lots of supplies, the Gov-
ernment either (1) may by contract or otherwise
replace or correct such supplies and charge to the
Contractor the cost occasioned the Government
thereby, or (ii) may terminate this contract for
default as provided in the clause of this contract
entitled "Default." Unless the Contractor corrects
or replaces such supplies within the delivery sched-
ule, the Contracting Officer may require the delivery
of such supplies. at a reduction in price which is
equitable under the circumstances. Failure to agree
to such reduction of price shall be a dispute con-

cerning a question of fact within the meaning of
the clause of this contract entitled "Disputes."
[Rev. No. 28, 1/28/58.]
(c) If any inspection or test is made by the Gov-
ernment on the premises of the Contractor or a
subcontractor, the Contractor without additional
charge shall provide all reasonable facilities and
assistance for the safety and convenience of the
Government inspectors in the performance of their
duties. If Government inspection or test is made
at a point other than the premises of the Con-
tractor or a subcontractor, it shall be at the ex-
pense of the Government except as otherwise pro-
vided in this contract: Provided, That in case of
rejection the Government shall not be liable for
any reduction in value of samples used in connec-
tion with such inspection or test. All inspections
and tests by the Government shall be performed
in such a manner as not to unduly delay the work.
The Government reserves the right to charge to the
Contractor any additional cost of Government in-
spection and test when supplies are not ready at
the time such inspection and test is requested by
the Contractor or when reinspection or retest is
necessitated by prior rejection. Acceptance or re-
jection of the supplies shall be made as promptly
as practicable after delivery, except as otherwise
provided in this contract; but failure to inspect and
accept or reject supplies shall neither relieve the
Contractor from responsibility for such supplies
as are not in accordance with the contract require-
ments nor impose liability on the Government
therefor. [Rev. No. 28, 1/28/58.]
(d) The inspection and test by the Government
of any supplies or lots thereof does not relieve the
Contractor from any responsibiility regarding de-
fects or other failures to meet the contract require-
ments which may be discovered prior to acceptance.
Except as otherwise provided in this contract, ac-
ceptance shall be conclusive except as regards latent
defects, fraud, or such gross mistakes as amount
to fraud.
(e) The Contractor shall provide and maintain
an inspection system acceptable to the Government
covering the supplies hereunder. Records of all in-
spection work by the Contractor shall be kept com-
plete and available to the Government during the
performance of this contract and for such longer
period as may be specified elsewhere in this con-
tract.
6. RESPONSIBILTY FOR SUPPLIES (ASPIC 7-103.6)
(Jan. 1858)
Except as otherwise provided in this contract, (f)
the Contractor shall be responsible for the supplies
covered by this contract until they are delivered at
the designated delivery point, regardless of the
point of inspection; (ii) after delivery to the Gov-
ernment at the designed point and prior to accept-
ance by the Government or rejection and giving
notice thereof by the Government, the Government
shall be responsible for the loss or destruction of or
damage to the supplies only if such loss, destruc-
tion, or damage results from the negligence of
officers, agents, or employees of the Government
acting within the scope of their employment; and
(iii) the Contractor shall bear all risks as to re-
jected supplies after notice of rejection, except that
the Government shall be responsible for the loss,
or destruction of, or damage to the supplies only
if such loss, destruction or damage results from the
gross negligence of officers, agents, or employees of
the Government acting within the scope of their
employment. [Rev. No. 28, 1/28/58.]
7. PAYMENTS (ASPR 7-103.7) (Jan. 1958)
The Contractor shall be paid, upon the submis-
sion of proper invoices or vouchers, the prices stipu-
lated herein for supplies delivered and accepted,
less deductions, if any, as herein provided. Unless
otherwise specified, payment will be made on partial
deliveries accepted by the Government when the
amount due on such deliveries so warrants; or, when
requested by the Contractor, payment for accepted
partial deliveries shall be made whenever such pay-
ment would equal or exceed either $1,000 or 50 per-
cent of the total amount of this contract. [Rev.
No. 30, 3/17/58.]

payments aggregating $1,000 or more, claims for
monies due or to become due the Contractor from
the Government under this contract may be as-
signed to a bank, trust company, or other financing
institution, including any Federal lending agency,
and may thereafter be further assigned and re-
assigned to any such institution. Any such assign-
ment or reassignment shall cover all amounts pay-
able under this contract and not already paid, and
shall not be made to more than one party, except
that any such assignment or reassignment may be
made to one party as agent or trustee for two or
more parties participating in such financing.
Unless otherwise provided in this contract, pay-
ments to an assignee of any monies due or to be-
come due under this contract shall not, to the
extent provided in said Act, as amended, be subject
to reduction or setoff.
(b) In no event shall copies of this contract or
of any plans, specifications, or other similar docu-
ments relating to work under this contract, if
marked "Top Secret," "Secret," or "Confidential,"

thorization of the Contracting Officer prior to the
assignment of any rights under this contract.
9. ADDITIONAL BOND SECURITY (ASPR 7-103.9)
(July 1949)
If any surety upon any bond furnished in con-
nection with this contract becomes unacceptable to
the Government, or if any such surety fails to fur-
nish reports as to his financial condition from time
to time as requested by the Government, the Con-
tractor shall promptly furnish such additional secu-
rity as may be required from time to time to pro-
tect the interests of the Government and of persons
supplying labor or materials in the prosecution of
the work contemplated by this contract.
10. FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL TAXES (ASPR
11-401-2) (July 1960)
(a) As used throughout this clause, the term
"contract date" means the date of this contract.
As to additional supplies or services procured by
modification to this contract, the term "contract
date" means the date of such modification.
(b) Except as may be otherwise provided in this
contract, the contract price includes, to the extent
allocable to this contract, all Federal, State, and
local taxes which, on the contract date:
(i) by Constitution, statute, or ordinance, are ap-
plicable to this contract, or to the transactions
covered by this contract or to property or interests
in property, or
(ii) pursuant to written ruling or regulation, the
authority charged with administering any such tax
is assessing or applying to, and is not granting or
honoring an exemption for, a contractor under this
kind of contract, or the transactions covered by this
contract, or property or interests in property.
(c) Except as may be otherwise provided in this
contract, duties in effect on the contract date are
included in the contract price to the extent allo-
cable to this contract. [Rev. No. 1, 7/22/60.]
(d) (1) If the contractor is required to pay or
bear the burden-
(i) of any tax or duty which either was not to
be included in the contract price pursuant to the
requirements of paragraphs (b) and (c), or of a tax
or duty specifically excluded from the contract price
by a provision of this contract; or
(ii) of an increase in rate of any tax or duty,
whether or not such tax or duty was excluded from
the contract price; or
(iii) of any interest or penalty on any tax or duty
referred to in (1) or (ii) above; the contract price
shall be increased by the amount of such tax, duty,
interest, or penalty allocable to this contract; pro-

vided, that the Contractor warrants in writing that
no amount of such tax, duty, or rate increase was
included in the contract price as a contingency
reserve or otherwise; and provided further, that
liability for such tax, duty, rate increase, interest,
or penalty was not incurred through the fault or
negligence of the Contractor or his failure to fol-
low instructions of the Contracting Officer. [Rev.
No. 1, 7/22/60.]
(2) If the Contractor is not required to pay or
bear the burden, or obtains a refund or drawback,
in whole or in part, of any tax, duty, interest, or
penalty which:
(f) was to be included in the contract price pur-
suant to the requirements of paragraphs (b) and
(c) ;
(ii) was included in the contract price; or
(iii) was the basis of an increase in the contract
price; the contract price shall be decreased by the
amount of such relief, refund, or drawback allocable
to this contract, or the allocable amount of such
relief, refund, or drawback shall be paid to the
Government, as directed by the Contracting Offi-
cer. The contract price also shall be similarly de-
creased if the Contractor, through his fault or neg-
ligence or his failure to follow instructions of the
Contracting Officer, is required to pay or bear the
burden, does not obtain a refund or drawback of
any such tax, duty, interest, or penalty. Interest
paid or credited to the Contractor incident to a
refund of taxes shall inure to the benefit of the
Government to the extent that such interest was
earned after the Contractor was paid or reimbursed
by the Government for such taxes.
(3) Invoices or vouchers covering any adjustment
of the contract price pursuant to this paragraph
(d) shall set forth the amount thereof as a separate
item and shall identify the particular tax or duty
involved.
(4) This paragraph (d) shall not be applicable to
social security taxes; income and franchise taxes,
other than those levied on or measured by (I) sales
or receipts from sales, or (ii) the Contractor's pos-
session of, interest in, or use of property, title to
which is in the Government; excess profits taxes;
capital stock taxes; unemployment compensation
taxes; or property taxes, other than such property
taxes, allocable to this contract, as are assessed
either on completed supplies covered by this con-
tract, or on the Contractor's possession of, interest
in, or use of property, title to which is in the Gov-
ernment.
(5) No adjustment of less than $100 is required
to be made in the contract price pursuant to this
paragraph (d).
(e) Unless there does not exist any reasonable
basis to sustain an exemption, the Government
upon request of the Contractor, without further
liability, agrees, except as otherwise provided in
this contract, to furnish evidence appropriate to

establish exemption from any tax which the Con-
tractor warrants in writing was excluded from the
contract price. In addition, the Contracting Officer
may furnish evidence appropriate to establish ex-
emption from any tax that may, pursuant to this
clause, give rise to either an increase or decrease
in the contract price. Except as otherwise provided
in this contract, evidence appropriate to establish
exemption from duties will be furnished only at
the discretion of the Contracting Officer.
(f) (1) The Contractor shall promptly notify the
Contracting Officer of all matters pertaining to
Federal, State, and local taxes, and duties, that
reasonably may be expected to result in either an
increase or decrease in the contract price.
(2) Whenever an increase or decrease in the con-
tract price may be required under this clause, the
Contractor shall take action as directed by the
Contracting Officer, and the contract price shall
be equitably adjusted to cover the costs of such
action, including any interest, penalty, and reason-
able attorneys' fees.
11. DEFAULT (ASPR 7-103.11-ASPR 8-707)
(July 1962)
(a) The Government may, subject to the pro-
visions of paragraph (c) below, by written notice
of default to the Contractor, terminate the whole
or any part of this contract in any one of the
following circumstances:
(i) if the Contractor falls to make delivery of
the supplies or to perform the services within the
time specified herein or any extension thereof; or
(ii) if the Contractor fails to perform any of
the other provisions of this contract, or so fails
to make progress as to endanger performance of
this contract in accordance with its terms, and in
either of these two circumstances does not cure
such failure within a period of 10 days (or such
longer period as the Contracting Officer may au-
thorize in writing) after receipt of notice from the
Contracting Officer specifying such failure.
(b) In the event the Government terminates this
contract in whole or in part as provided in para-
graph (a) of this clause, the Government may pro-
cure, upon such terms and in such manner as the
Contracting Officer may deem appropriate, supplies
or services similar to those so terminated, and the
Contractor shall be liable to the Government for
any excess costs for such similar supplies or serv-
ices: Provided, That the Contractor shall continue
the performance of this contract to the extent not
terminated under the provisions of this clause.
(c) Except with respect to defaults of subcon-
tractors, the Contractor shall not be liable for any
excess costs if the failure to perform the contract
arises out of causes beyond the control and with-
out the fault or negligence of the Contractor. Such
causes may include, but are not restricted to, acts
of God or of the public enemy, acts of the Govern-
ment in either its sovereign or contractual capacity,
fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions,
strikes, freight embargoes, and unusually severe
weather; but in every case the failure to perform
must be beyond the control and without the fault
or negligence of the Contractor. If the failure to
perform is caused by the default of a subcontractor,
and if such default arises out of causes beyond the
control of both the Contractor and subcontractor,
and without the fault or negligence. of either of
them, the Contractor shall not be liable for any
excess costs for failure to perform, unless the sup-
plies or services to be furnished by the subcon-
tractor were obtainable from other sources in suffi-
cient time to permit the Contractor to meet the re-
quired delivery schedule.
(d) If this contract is terminated as provided in
paragraph (a) of this clause, the Government, in
addition to any other rights provided in this clause,
may require the Contractor to transfer title and de-
liver to the Government, in the manner and to
the extent directed by the Contracting Officer, (i)
any completed supplies, and (ii) such partially
completed supplies and materials, parts, tools, dies,
jigs, fixtures, plans, drawings, information, and
contract rights (hereinafter called "manufacturing
materials") as the Contractor has specifically pro-
duced or specifically acquired for the performance
of such part of this contract as has been termi-
nated; and the Contractor shall, upon direction of
the Contracting Officer, protect and preserve prop-
erty in possession of the Contractor in which the
Government has an interest. Payment for com-
pleted supplies delivered to and accepted by the
Government shall be at the contract price. Pay-
ment for manufacturing materials delivered to and
accepted by the Government and for the protection
and preservation of property shall be in an amount
agreed upon by the Contractor and the Contracting
Officer; failure to agree to such amount shall be
a dispute concerning a question of fact within the
meaning of the clause of this contract entitled "Dis-
putes." The Government may withhold from
amounts otherwise due the Contractor for such
completed supplies or manufacturing materials
such sum as the Contracting Officer determines to
be necessary to protect the Government against
loss because of outstanding liens or claims of for-
mer lien holders.
(e) If, after notice of termination of this contract
under the provisions of this clause, it is determined
for any reason that the Contractor was not in de-
fault under the provisions of this clause, or that the
default was excusable under the provisions of this
clause, the rights and obligations of the parties
shall, if the contract contains a clause providing
for termination for convenience of the Government,
be the same as if the notice of termination had
been issued pursuant to such clause.

If, after notice of termination of this contract
under the provisions of this clause, it is determined
for any reason that the Contractor was not in de-
fault under the provisions of this clause, and if
this contract does not contain a clause providing
for termination for convenience of the Govern-
ment, the contract shall be equitably adjusted to
compensate for such termination and the contract
modified accordingly; failure to agree to any such
adjustment shall be a dispute concerning a ques-
tion of fact within the meaning of the clause of
this contract entitled "Disputes." [Rev. No. 10,

any dispute concerning a question of fact arising
under this contract which is not disposed of by

evidence. In connection with any appeal proceed-
ing under this clause, the Contractor shall be af-
forded an opportunity to be heard and to offer

termination of such orders and subcontracts;

to be furnished to the Government;
(vii) use its best efforts to sell, in the manner,
at the times, to the extent, and at the price or
prices directed or authorized by the Contracting
Officer, any property of the types referred to in
(vi) above; provided, however, that the Contractor
(A) shall not be required to extend credit to any
purchaser, and (B) may acquire any such property
under the conditions prescribed by and at a price
or prices approved by the Contracting officer; and
provided further that the proceeds of any such
transfer or disposition shall be applied in reduction
of any payments to be made by the Government to
the Contractor under this contract or shall other-
wise be credited to the price or cost of the work
covered by this contract or paid in such other
manner as the Contracting Officer may direct;
(viii) complete performance of such part of the
work as shall not have been terminated by the

(ix) take such action as may be necessary, or as
the Contracting Officer may direct, for the protec-

from time to time, the Contractor may submit to
the Contracting Officer a list, certified as to quan-
tity and quality, of any or all items of termination
inventory not previously disposed of, exclusive of
items the disposition of which has been directed or
authorized by the Contracting Officer, and may re-

mination, unless one or more extensions in writing
are granted by the Contracting Officer, upon re-
quest of the Contractor made in writing within such
one year period or authorized extension thereof.
However, if the Contracting Officer determines that
the facts justify such action, he may receive and act
upon any such termination claim at anytime after
such one year period or any extension thereof.
Upon failure of the Contractor to submit its ter-
mination claim within the time allowed, the Con-
tracting Officer may, subject to any Settlement
Review Board approvals required by Section VIII
of the Armed Services Procurement Regulation in

reason of the termination and shall thereupon pay
to the Contractor the amount so determined.
(d) Subject to the provisions of paragraph (c),
and subject to any Settlement Review Board ap-
provals required by Section VIII of the Armed Serv-
ices Procurement Regulation in effect as of the date
of execution of this contract, the Contractor and
the Contracting Officer may agree upon the whole
or any part of the amount or amounts to be paid
to the Contractor by reason of the total or partial
termination of work pursuant to this clause, which
amount or amounts may include a reasonable al-
lowance for profit on work done; provided that such
agreed amount or amounts, exclusive of settlement
costs, shall not exceed the total contract price as
reduced by the amount of payments otherwise
made and as further reduced by the contract price
of work not terminated. The contract shall be
amended accordingly, and the Contractor shall be
paid the agreed amount. Nothing in paragraph
ke) of this clause, prescribing the amount to be paid
to the Contractor in the event of failure of the Con-
tractor and the Contracting Officer to agree upon
the whole amount to be paid to the Contractor by
reason of the termination of work pursuant to this
clause, shall be deemed to limit, restrict, or other-
wise determine or affect the amount or amounts
which may be agreed upon to be paid to the Con-
tractor pursuant to this paragraph W.
(e) In the event of the failure of the Contractor
and the Contracting Officer to agree as provided in
paragraph (d) upon the whole amount to be paid
to the Contractor by reason of the termination of
work pursuant to this clause, the Contracting Officer
shall, subject to any Settlement Review Board ap-
provals required by Section VIII of the Armed Serv-
ices Procurement Regulation in effect as of the date
of execution of this contract, determine, on the
basis of information available to him, the amount,
if any, due to the Contractor by reason of the ter-
mination and shall pay to the Contractor the
amounts determined as follows:
(i) for completed supplies accepted by the Gov-
ernment (or sold or acquired as provided in para-
graph (b) (vii) above) and not theretofore paid
for, a sum equivalent to the aggregate price for
such supplies computed in accordance with the
price or prices specified in the contract, appro-
priately adjusted for any saving of freight or other
charges;
(ii) the total of -
(A) the costs incurred in the performance of the
work terminated, including initial costs and pre-
paratory expense allocable thereto, but exclusive of
any costs attributable to supplies paid or to be paid
for under paragraph (e) (i) hereof;
(B) the cost of settling and paying claims arising
out of the termination of work under subcontracts
or orders, as provided in paragraph (b) (v) above,
which are properly chargeable to the terminated
portion of the contract (exclusive of amounts paid
or payable on account of supplies or materials
delivered or services furnished by subcontractors or
vendors prior to the effective date of the Notice of
Termination, which amounts shall be included in
the costs payable under (A) above; and
(C) a sum, as a profit, equal to 2 percent of that
part of the amount determined under (A) above
which represents the cost of articles and materials
not processed by the Contractor, plus a sum equal
to 8 percent of the remainder of such amount, but
the aggregate of such sums shall not exceed 6 per-
cent of the whole of the amount determined under
(A) above; provided, however, that if it appears
that the Contractor would have sustained a loss
on the entire contract had it been completed, no
profit shall be included or allowed under this sub-
division (C) and an appropriate adjustment shall
be made reducing the amount of the settlement to
reflect the indicated rate of loss; and
(iii) the reasonable costs of settlement, including
accounting, legal, clerical, and other expenses rea-
sonably necessary for the preparation of settlement
claims and supporting data with respect to the ter-
minated portion of the contract and for the ter-
mination and settlement of subcontracts there-
under, together with reasonable storage, transporta-
tion, and other costs incurred in connection with
the protection or disposition of property allocable to
this contract. The total sum to be paid to the Con-
tractor under (I) and (ii) of this paragraph (e)
shall not exceed the total contract price as reduced
by the amount of payments otherwise made and as
further reduced by the contract price of work not
terminated. Except for normal spoilage, and ex-
cept to the extent that the Government shall have
otherwise expressly assumed the risk of loss, there
shall be excluded from the amounts payable to the
Contractor as provided in (e) (I) and (ii) (A) above,
the fair value, as determined by the Contracting
Officer, of property which is destroyed, lost, stolen,
or damaged so as to become undeliverable to the
Government, or to a buyer pursuant to paragraph
(b) (vii).
(f) Any determination of costs under paragraph
(c) or (e) hereof shall be governed by the principles
for consideration of costs set forth in Section XV,
Part 2, of the Armed Services Procurement Regula-
tion, as in effect on the date of this contract.
(g) The Contractor shall have the right of ap-
peal, under the clause of this contract entitled
"Disputes," from any determination made by the
Contracting Officer under paragraphs (c) or (e)
above, except that if the Contractor has failed to
submit his claim within the time provided in para-

to the Contractor the following: (1) if there is no
right of appeal hereunder or if no timely appeal has
been taken, the amount so determined by the Con-
tracting Officer, or (ii) if an appeal has been taken,
the amount finally determined on such appeal.

tor under this clause there shall be deducted (1)

claim which the Government may have against the
Contractor in connection with this contract, and
(iii) the agreed price for, or the proceeds of sale
of, any materials, supplies, or other things ac-
quired by the Contractor or sold, pursuant to the
provisions of this clause, and not otherwise re-
covered by or credited to the Government.
(i) If the termination hereunder be partial, prior
to the settlement of the terminated portion of this
contract, the Contractor may file with the Con-
tracting Officer a request in writing for an equitable
adjustment of the price or prices specified in the
contract relating to the continued portion of the
contract (the portion not terminated by the Notice
of Termination), and such equitable adjustment as
may be agreed upon shall be made in such price
or prices.
(j) The Government may from time to time,
under such terms and conditions as it may pre-
scribe, make partial payments and payments on ac-
count against costs incurred by the Contractor in
connection with the terminated portion of this con-
tract whenever in the opinion of the Contracting
Officer the aggregate of such payments shall be
within the amount to which the Contractor will be
entitled hereunder. If the total of such payments
is in excess of the amount finally agreed or deter-
mined to be due under this clause, such excess
shall be payable by the Contractor to the Govern-
ment upon demand, together with interest com-
puted at the rate of 6 percent per annum, for the
period from the date such excess payment is re-
ceived by the Contractor to the date on which such
excess is repaid to the Government; provided, how-
ever, that no interest shall be charged with respect
to any such excess payment attributable to a re-
duction in the Contractor's claim by reason of re-
tention or other disposition of termination inven-
tory until ten days after the date of such retention
or disposition, or such later date as determined by
the Contracting Officer by reason of the circum-
stances.
(k) Unless otherwise provided for in this con-
tract, or by applicable statute, the Contractor, from
the effective date of termination and for a period
of three years after final settlement under this con-
tract, shall preserve and make available to the Gov-
ernment at all reasonable times at the Office of the
Contractor but without direct charge to the Gov-
ernment, all his books, records, documents, and
other evidence bearing on the costs and expenses
of the Contractor under this contract and relating
to the work terminated hereunder, or, to the ex-

22. BUY AMERICAN ACT (ASPR 6-104.5)
(July 1960)
(a) In acquiring end products, the Buy American

ernment give preference to domestic source end
products. For the purpose of this clause:
(i) "components" means those articles, materials,
and supplies, which are directly incorporated in the
end products;
(ii) "end products" means those articles, ma-
terials, and supplies, which are to be acquired under
this contract for public use; and
(iii) a "domestic source end product" means (A)
an unmanufactured end product which has been
mined or produced in the United States and (B)
an end product manufactured in the United States
if the cost of the components thereof which are
mined, produced, or manufactured in the United
States or Canada exceeds 50 percent of the cost
of all its components. For the purposes of this
(a) (iii) (B), components of foreign origin of the
same type or kind as the products referred to in
(b) (ii) or (iii) of this clause shall be treated as
components mined, produced, or manufactured in
the United States.
(b) The Contractor agrees that there will be de-
livered under this contract only domestic source
end products, except end products:
(i) which are for use outside the United States;
(ii) which the Government determines are not
mined, produced, or manufactured in the United
States in sufficient and reasonably available com-
mercial quantities and of a satisfactory quality;
(iii) as to which the Secretary determines the
domestic preference to be inconsistent with the
public interest; or
(iv) as to which the Secretary determines the
cost to the Government to be unreasonable.

nation whether, for reasons of national security,
such application should be placed under an order

the scope of this clause, the Contractor shall ob-
serve all applicable security regulations covering

however, if the Contractor, after having specified
that such an application would be filed, decides not
to file or cause to be filed said application, the Con-

the earliest practicable date and in any event not
later than eight months after first publication,

in (d) (11) above; and
(v) the Contractor shall deliver to the Contract-
ing Officer duly executed instruments fully con-
firmatory of any license rights herein agreed to be
granted to the Government.
(e) The Contractor, or those other than the Gov-
ernment deriving rights from the Contractor, shall,
as between the parties hereto, have the exclusive
rights to file applications on Subject Inventions in
each foreign country within:
(1) nine months from the date a corresponding
United States application is filed;
(ii) six months from the date permission is
granted to file foreign applications where such filing
had been prohibited for security reasons; or
(iii) such longer period as may be approved by
the Contracting Officer.
The Contractor shall, upon written request of the
Contracting Officer, convey to the Government the
Contractor's entire right, title, and interest in each
Subject Invention in each foreign country in which
an application has not been filed within the time
above specified, subject to the reservation of a non-
exclusive and royalty-free license to the Contrac-
tor together with the right of the Contractor to
grant sublicenses, which license and right shall be
assignable to the successor of that part of the Con-

pertains.
(f) If the Contractor fails to deliver to the Con-
tracting Officer the interim reports required by
(c) (ii) above, or fails to furnish the written dis-
closures for all Subject Inventions required by
(c) (1) above shown to be due in accordance with
any interim report delivered under (c) (11) or other-
wise known to be unreported, there shall be with-
held from payment until the Contractor shall
have corrected such failures either ten percent
(10%) of the amount of this contract, as from time
to time amended, or five thousand dollars ($5,000),
whichever is less. After payment of eighty per-
cent (80%) of the amount of this contract, as from
time to time amended, payment shall be withheld
until a reserve of either ten percent (10%) of such
amount, or five thousand dollars ($5,000), which-
ever is less, shall have been set aside, such reserve
or balance thereof to be retained until the Con-
tractor shall have furnished to the Contracting
Officer:
(I) the final report required by (c) (iii) above;
(ii) written disclosures for all Subject Inventions
required by (c) (1) above which are shown to be
due in accordance with interim reports delivered

quired by (h) below. The maximum amount which
may be withheld under this paragraph (f) shall
not exceed ten percent (10%) of the amount of
this contract or five thousand dollars ($5,000),
whichever is less, and no amount shall be withheld
under this paragraph (f) when the amount speci-
fied by this paragraph (f) is being withheld under
other provisions of this contract. The withhold-
ing of any amount or subsequent payment thereof
to the Contractor shall not be construed as a waiver
of any rights accruing to the Government under
this contract. This paragraph (f) shall not be con-
strued as requiring the Contractor to withhold any
amounts from a subcontractor to enforce compli-
ance with the patent provisions of a subcontract.
(g) The Contractor shall, unless otherwise au-
thorized by the Contracting Officer as hereafter pro-
vided, include a patent rights clause containing all
the provisions of this Patent Rights Clause except
provision (f) in any subcontract hereunder of three
thousand dollars ($3,000) or more having experi-
mental, developmental, or research work as one of
its purposes. in the event of refusal by a subcon-
tractor to accept such a patent rights clause, the
contractor (1) shall promptly submit a written re-
port to the Contracting Officer setting forth the
subcontractor's reasons for such refusal and other
pertinent information which may expedite disposi-
tion of the matter, and (11) shall not proceed with
the subcontract without the written authorization
of the Contracting Officer. Reports, instruments,
and other information required to be furnished by
a subcontractor to the Contracting Officer under
the provisions of such a patent rights clause in a
subcontract hereunder may, upon mutual consent
of the Contractor and subcontractor, (or by direc-
tion of the Contracting Officer) be furnished to the
Contractor for transmission to the Contracting Offi-.
cer. [Rev. No. 9, 4/15/62.]
(h) The Contractor shall, at the earliest prac-
ticable date, notify the Contracting Officer in writ-
ing of any subcontract containing one or more
patent rights clauses, furnish the Contracting Offi-
cer a copy of each of such clauses; and notify the
Contracting Officer when such subcontract is com-
pleted. It is understood that with respect to any
subcontract clause granting rights to the Govern-
ment in Subject Inventions, the Government is a
third party beneficiary; and the Contractor hereby
assigns to the Government all the rights that the
Contractor would have to enforce the subcontrac-
tor's obligations for the benefit of the Government
with respect to Subject Inventions. If there are
no subcontracts containing patent rights clauses,
a negative report is required. The Contractor shall
not be obligated to enforce the agreements of any
subcontractor hereunder relating to the obligations
of the subcontractor to the Government in regard
to Subject Inventions.

(1) The contractor recognizes that the Govern-
ment, or a foreign Government with funds derived
through the Military Assistance Program or other-
wise through the United States Government, may
contract for property or services with respect to
which the vendor may be liable to the Contractor
for royalties for the use of a Subject Invention on
account of such a contract. The Contractor fur-
ther recognizes that it is the policy of the Govern-
ment not to pay in connection with its contracts,
or to allow to be paid in connection with contract
made with funds derived through the Military As-
sistance Program or otherwise through the United
States Government, charges for use of patents in
which the Government holds a royalty free license.
In recognition of this policy, the Contractor agrees
to participate in this policy and to make ap-
propriate arrangements for the exclusion of such
charges from such contracts or for the refund of
amounts received by the contractor with respect to
any such charges not so excluded. [Rev. No. 9,
4/15/62.]

financial reports, cost analyses, and other informa-
tion incidental to contract administration.
(b) The Contractor agrees to and does hereby
grant to the Government, and to its officers, agents,
and employees acting within the scope of their
official duties, a royalty-free, nonexclusive and ir-
revocable license throughout the world for Govern-
ment purposes to publish, translate, reproduce, de-
liver, perform, dispose of, and to authorize others
so to do, all Subject Data now or hereafter covered
by copyright. [Rev. No. 7, 2/15/62.1
(c) The Contractor shall not include in the Sub-
ject Data any copyrighted matter, without the
written approval of the Contracting Officer, unless
he provides the Government with the written per-
mission of the copyright owner for the Government
to use such copyrighted matter in the manner pro-
vided in paragraph (b) above. [Rev. No. 7, 2/15/62.]
(d) The Contractor shall report to the Contract-
ing Officer, promptly and in reasonable written de-
tail, each notice or claim of copyright infringement
received by the Contractor with respect to all Sub-
ject Data delivered under this contract.
(e) Nothing contained in this clause shall imply
a license to the Government under any patent or
be construed as affecting the scope of any license
or other right otherwise granted to the Govern-
ment under any patent.
(f) Unless otherwise limited below, the Govern-
ment may duplicate, use, and disclose in any man-
ner and for any purpose whatsoever, and have
others so do, all Subject Data delivered under this
contract. [Rev. No. 7, 2/15/62.]
(g) The Contractor recognizes that the Govern-
ment, or a foreign government with funds derived
through the Mutual Security Program or otherwise
through the United States Government, may con-
tract for property or services with respect to which
the vendor may be liable to the Contractor for
charges for the use of Subject Data on account of
such a contract. The Contractor further recognizes
that it is the policy of the Government not to pay in
connection with its contracts, or to allow to be paid
in connection with contracts made with funds de-
rived through the Mutual Security Program or
otherwise through the United States Government,
charges for data which the Government has a right
to use and disclose to others, or which is in the
public domain, or with respect to which the Gov-
ernment has been placed in possession without
restrictions upon its use and disclosure to others.
This policy does not apply to reasonable reproduc-
tion, handling, mailing, and similar administrative
costs incident to the furnishing of such data. In
recognition of this policy,, the Contractor agrees to
participate in and make appropriate arrangements
for the exclusion of such charges from such con-
tracts or for the refund of amounts received by the
Contractor with respect to any such charges not
so excluded. [Rev. No. 52~ 3/15/60.1
(h) Notwithstanding any provisions of this con-
tract concerning inspection and acceptance, the
Government shall have the right at any time to
modify, remove, obliterate or ignore any marking
not authorized by the t6rrps of this contract on
any piece of Subject Data furnished under this
contract. [Rev. No. 38. 10/15/58; Rev. No. 52,

this contract entitled "Data"), or any part thereof,
is not delivered within the time specified by this
contract or is deficient upon delivery (including
having restrictive markings not specifically author-
ized by the contract), the Contracting Officer may,
until such data is delivered or deficiencies are cor-
rected, withhold payment to the Contractor of ten
percent (10%) of the contract price unless a lesser
withholding is specified in the schedule. Payments
shall not be withheld nor any other action taken
pursuant to this clause where the Contractor's fail-
ure to make timely delivery or to deliver data with-
out deficiencies arises out of causes beyond the con-
trol and without the fault or negligence of the Con-
tractor within the meaning of the clause hereof
entitled "Default." The withholding of any amount
or subsequent payment thereof to the Contractor
shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights
accruing to the Government under this contract.

38. UTILIZATION OF CONCERNS IN LABOR
SURPLUS AREAS (ASPR 1-805.3) (Feb. 1962)
It is the policy of the Government to place con-
tracts with concerns which will perform such con-
tracts substantially in areas of persistent or sub-
stantial labor surplus where this can be done, con-
sistent with the efficient performance of the con-
tract, at prices no higher than are obtainable else-
where. The Contractor agrees to use his best efforts
to place his subcontracts in accordance with this
policy. In complying with the foregoing and with
paragraph (b) of the clause of this contract en-
titled "Utilization of Small Business Concerns," the
Contractor in placing his subcontracts shall observe
the following order of preference: (I) persistent
labor surplus area concerns which are also small
business concerns; (ii) other persistent labor sur-
plus area concerns; (iii) substantial labor surplus
area concerns which are also small business con-
cerns; (iv) other substantial labor surplus area
concerns; and (v) small business concerns which
are not labor surplus area concerns.
39. STANDARDS OF WORK (ASPR 7-302.3)
(June 1959)
The Contractor agrees that the performance of

40. GROUND AND FLIGHT RISK (ASPR 10-404)
(Feb. 1962)
(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
contract, except as may be specifically provided in
the Schedule as an exception to this clause, the
Government, subject to the definitions and limita-
tions of this clause, assumes the risk of damage to,
or loss or destruction of, aircraft "in the open,"
during "operation," and in "flight," as these terms
are defined below, and agrees that the Contractor
shall not be liable to the Government for any such
damage, loss, or destruction, the risk of which is so
assumed by the Government.
(b) For the purposes of this clause:
(1) Unless otherwise specifically provided in the
Schedule, the term "aircraft" means-
(A) aircraft (including (I) complete aircraft, and
(II) aircraft in the course of being manufactured,
disassembled, or reassembled, provided that an en-
gine or a portion of a wing or a wing is attached
to a fuselage of such aircraft) to be furnished to
the Government under this contract (whether be-
fore or after acceptance by the Government) ; and
(B) aircraft (regardless of whether in a state of
disassembly or reassembly) furnished by the Gov-
ernment to the Contractor under this contract; in-
cluding all property installed therein, or in the
process of installation, or temporarily removed from
such aircraft; provided, however, that such aircraft
and property are not covered by a separate bail-
ment agreement.
(ii) The term "in the open" means located wholly
outside of buildings on the Contractor's premises or
at such other places as may be described in the
Schedule as being in the open for the purposes of
this clause, except that aircraft furnished by the
Government shall be deemed to be in the open at
all times while in the Contractor's possession, care
custody, or control.
(iii) The term "flight" means any flight demon-
stration, flight test, taxi test, or other flight, made
in the performance of this contract, or for the pur-
pose of safeguarding the aircraft, or previously ap-
proved in writing by the Contracting Officer. With
respect to land based aircraft, "flight" shall com-
mence with the taxi roll from a flight line on the
Contractor's premises, and continue until the air-
craft has completed the taxi roll in returning to a
flight line on the Contractor's premises; with re-
spect to seaplanes, "flight" shall commence with
the launching from a ramp on the Contractor's
premises and continue until the aircraft has com-
pleted its landing run upon return and is beached
at a ramp on the Contractor's premises; with re-
spect to helicopters, "flight" shall commence upon
engagement of the rotors for the purpose of take-
off from the Contractor's premises and continue
until the aircraft has returned to the ground on
the Contractor's premises and the rotors are dis-
engaged; and with respect to vertical take-off air-
craft, "flight" shall commence upon disengagement
from any launching platform or device on the Con-
tractor's premises and continue until the aircraft
has been re-engaged to any launching platform
or device on the Contractor's premises; provided,
however, that aircraft off the Contractor's premises
shall be deemed to be in flight when on the ground
or water only during periods of reasonable dura-
tion following emergency landings,. other landings
made in the performance of this contract, or land-
ings approved by the Contracting Officer in writing.

(iv) The term "Contractor's premises" means
those premises designated as such in the Schedule
or in writing by the Contracting Officer, and any
other place to which aircraft are moved for the
purpose of safeguarding the aircraft.
(v) The term "operation" means operations and
tests, other than on any production line, of air-
craft, when not in flight, whether or not the air-
craft is in the open or in motion during the making
of any such operations or tests, and includes opera-
tions and tests of equipment, accessories, and power
plants, only when installed in aircraft.
(vi) The term "flight crew members" means the
pilot, the co-pilot and, unless otherwise specifically
provided in the Schedule, the flight engineer, navi-
gator, bombardier-navigator, and defensive systems
operator, when required, or assigned to their respec-
tive crew positions, to conduct any flight on behalf
of the Contractor.
(c) (1) The Government's assumption of risk
under this clause, as to aircraft in the open, shall
continue in effect unless terminated pursuant to
subparagraph (3) below. Where the Contracting
Officer finds that any of such aircraft is in the
open under unreasonable conditions, he shall notify
the Contractor in writing of the conditions he finds
to be unreasonable and require the Contractor to
correct such conditions within a reasonable time.
(2) Upon receipt of such notice, the Contractor
shall act promptly to correct such conditions, re-
gardless of whether he agrees that such condi-
tions are in fact unreasonable. To the extent that
the Contracting Officer may later determine that
such conditions were not in fact unreasonable, an
equitable adjustment shall be made in the contract
price to compensate the Contractor for any addi-
tional costs it incurred in correcting such condi-
tions and the contract shall be modified in writing
accordingly. Any dispute as to the unreasonable-
ness of such conditions or the equitable adjust-
ment shall be deemed to be a dispute concerning
a question of the fact within the meaning of the
clause of this contract entitled "Disputes."
(3) If the Contracting Officer finds that the Con-
tractor has failed to act promptly to correct such
conditions or has failed to correct such conditions
within a reasonable time, he may terminate the
Government's assumption of risk under this clause,
as to any of the aircraft which is in the open under
such conditions, such termination to be effective at
12:01 A. M. on the fifteenth day following the day
of receipt by the Contractor of written notice there-
of. If the Contracting Officer later determines that
the Contractor acted promptly to correct such con-
ditions or that the time taken by the Contractor
was not in fact unreasonable, an equitable adjust-
ment shall, notwithstanding paragraph (f) of this
clause, be made in the contract price to compensate
the Contractor for any additional costs he incurred
as a result of termination of the Government's as-
FP or PR

sumption of risk under this clause and the contract
shall be modified in writing accordingly. Any dis-
pute as to whether the Contractor failed to act
promptly to correct such conditions, or as to the
reasonableness of the time for correction of such
conditions, or as to such equitable adjustment, shall
be deemed to be a dispute concerning a question
of fact within the meaning of the clause of this
contract entitled "Disputes."
(4) In the event the Government's assumption
of risk under this clause is terminated in accord-
ance with (3) above, the risk of loss with respect
to Government-furnished property shall be deter-
mined in accordance with the clause of this con-
tract, if any, entitled "Government-Furnished Prop-
erty" until the Government's assumption of risk is
reinstated in accordance with (5) below.
(5) When unreasonable conditions have been
corrected, the Contractor shall promptly notify the
Government thereof. The Government may elect
to again assume the risks and relieve the Contractor
of liabilities as provided in this clause, or not, and
the Contracting Officer shall notify the Contractor
of the Government's election. If, after correction
of the unreasonable conditions, the Government
elects to again assume such risks and relieve the
Contractor of such liabilities, the Contractor shall
be entitled to an equitable adjustment in the con-
tract price for costs of insurance, if any, extending
from the end of the third working day after the
Contractor notifies the Government of such cor-
rection until the Government notifies the Contrac-
tor of such election. If the Government elects not
to again assume such risks, and such conditions
have in fact been corrected, the Contractor shall
be entitled to an equitable adjustment for costs
of insurance, if any, extending after such third
working day.
(d) The Government's assumption of risk shall
not extend to damage to, or loss or destruction of,
such aircraft:
(1) resulting from failure of the Contractor, due
to willful misconduct or lack of good faith of any
of the Contractor's managerial personnel, to main-
tain and administer a program for the protection
and preservation of aircraft in the open, and dur-
ing operation, in accordance with sound industrial
practice (the term "Contractor's managerial per-
sonnel" means the Contractor's directors, officers,
and any of its managers, superintendents, or other
equivalent representatives, who has supervision or
direction of all or substantially all of the Contrac-
tor's business, or all or substantially all of the
Contractor's operations at any one plant or separate
location at which this contract is performed, or a
separate and complete major industrial operation
in connection with the performance of this con-
tract) ;
(fi) sustained during flight if the flight crew

(iii) while in the course of transportation by rail,
or by conveyance on public streets, highways, or
waterways, except for Government-furnished prop-
erty;
(iv) to the extent that such damage, loss or
destruction is in fact covered by insurance;
(v) consisting of wear and tear, deterioration
(including rust and corrosion), freezing, or me-
chanical, structural, or electrical breakdown or
failure, unless such damage is the result of other
loss, damage, or destruction covered by this clause;
provided, however, in the case of Government-
furnished property, if such damage consists of
reasonable wear and tear or deterioration, or re-
sults from inherent vice in such property, this ex-
clusion shall not apply;
(vi) sustained while the aircraft is being worked
upon and directly resulting therefrom, including
but not limited to any repairing, adjusting, serv-
icing or maintenance operation, unless such dam-
age, loss or destruction is of a type which would
be covered by insurance which would customarily
have been maintained by the Contractor at the
time of such damage, loss, or destruction, but for
the Government's assumption of risk under this
clause; or
(vii) under this clause, where the total loss re-
sulting from each event separately occurring is less
than $500.
(e) A subcontractor shall not be relieved from
liability for damage to, or loss or destruction of,
aircraft while in its possession- or control, except
to the extent that the subcontract, with the prior
written approval of the Contracting Officer, pro-
vides for relief of the subcontractor from such
liability. In the absence of such approval, the sub-
contract shall contain appropriate provisions re-
quiring the return of such aircraft in as good con-
dition as when received, except for reasonable wear
and tear or for the utilization of the property in
accordance with the provisions of this contract.
Where a subcontractor has not been relieved from
liability for any damage, loss, or destruction of air-
craft and any damage, loss, or destruction occurs,
the Contractor shall enforce the liability of the
subcontractor for such damage to, or loss or de-
struction of, the aircraft for the benefit of the
Government.
(f) The Contractor warrants that the contract
price does not and will not include, except as may
be otherwise authorized in this clause, any charge
or contingency reserve for insurance (including
self-insurance funds or reserves) covering any
damage to, or loss or destruction of, aircraft while
in the open, during operation, or in flight, the risk
of which has been assumed by the Government
under the provisions of this clause, whether or not
such assumption may be terminated as to aircraft
in the open.
(g) In the event of damage to, or loss or destruc-
tion of, aircraft in the open, during operation, or
in flight, the Contractor shall take all reasonable
steps to protect such aircraft from further dam-
age, separate damaged and undamaged aircraft,
put all aircraft in the best possible order and, fur-
ther, except in cases covered by (d) (vii) above, the
Contractor should furnish to the Contracting Offi-
cer a statement of:
(i) the damaged, lost, or destroyed aircraft;
(ii) the time and origin of the damage, loss, or
destruction;
(iii) all known interests in commingled property
of which aircraft are a part; and
(iv) the insurance, if any, covering any part of
the interest in such commingled property.
Except in cases covered by (d) (vii) above, an equi-
table adjustment shall be made in the amount due
under this contract for expenditures made by the
Contractor in performing its obligations under this
paragraph (g) and this contract shall be modified
in writing accordingly.
(h) If prior to delivery and acceptance by the
Government any aircraft is damaged, lost, or de-
stroyed and the Government has under this clause
assumed the risk of such damage, loss, or destruc-
tion, the Government shall either (1) require that
such aircraft be replaced or restored by the Con-
tractor to the condition in which it was immediately
prior to such damage, or (2) shall terminate this
contract with respect to such aircraft. In the
event that the Government requires that the air-
craft be replaced or restored, an equitable adjust-
ment shall be made in the amount due under this
contract and in the time required for its perform-
ance, and this contract shall be modified in writing
accordingly. If, in the alternative, this contract
is terminated under this paragraph with respect
to such aircraft and under this clause the Govern-
ment has assumed the risk of such damage, loss,
or destruction, the Contractor shall be paid the
contract price for said aircraft (or, if applicable,
any work to be performed on said aircraft) less
such amounts as the Contracting Officer determines
(1) that it would have cost the contractor to com-
plete the aircraft (or any work to be performed on
said aircraft) together with anticipated profit, if
any, on any such uncompleted work, and (2) to be
the value, if any, of the damaged aircraft or any
remaining portion thereof retained by the Con-
tractor. The Contracting Officer shall have the
right to prescribe the manner of disposition of the
damaged, lost, or destroyed aircraft, or any remain-
ing parts thereof; and, if any additional costs of
such disposition are incurred by the Contractor,
a further equitable adjustment will be made in the
amount due to the Contractor. Failure of the par-
ties to agree upon an equitable adjustment or upon
the amount to be paid in the event of termination
of the contract with respect to any aircraft, shall
be a dispute concerning a question of fact within
the meaning of the Disputes clause of this con-
tract. [Rev. No. 6, 11/15/61.]

41. GOVERNMENT-FURNISHED PROPERTY
(ASPR 13-502) (Nov. 1958)
(a) The Government shall deliver to the Contrac-
tor, for use in connection with and under the terms
of this contract, the property described in the
Schedule or specifications, together with such re-
lated data and information as the Contractor may
request and as may reasonably be required for
the intended use of such property (hereinafter re-
ferred to as "Government-furnished Property").
The delivery or performance dates for the supplies
or services to be furnished by the Contractor under
this contract are based upon the expectation that
Government-furnished Property suitable for use
will be delivered to the Contractor at the times
stated in the Schedule or, if not so stated, in suf-
ficient time to enable the Contractor to meet such
delivery or performance dates. In the event that
Government-furnished Property is not delivered to
the Contractor by such time or times, the Contract-
ing Officer shall, upon timely written request made
by the Contractor, make a determination of the
delay occasioned the Contractor thereby, and shall
equitably adjust the delivery or performance dates
or the contract price, or both, and any other con-
tractual provision affected by such delay, in ac-
cordance with the procedures provided for in the
clause of this contract entitled "Changes." In the
event the Government-furnished Property is re-
ceived by the Contractor in a condition not suitable
for the intended use the Contractor shall, upon
receipt thereof, notify the Contracting Officer of
such fact and, as directed by the Contracting Officer,
either (1) return such property at the Government's
expense or otherwise dispose of the property, or
(ii) effect repairs or modifications. Upon the com-
pletion of (I) or (ii) above, the Contracting Officer
upon written request of the Contractor shall equi-
tably adjust the delivery or performance dates or
the contract price, or both, and any other con-
tractual provision affected by the rejection or dis-
position, or the repair or modification, in accord-
ance with the procedures provided for in the clause
of this contract entitled "Changes." The foregoing
provisions for adjustment are exclusive and the
Government shall not be liable to suit for breach
of contract by reason of any delay in delivery of
Government-furnished Property or delivery of such
property in a condition not suitable for its intended
use.
(b) By notice in writing the Contracting Officer
may decrease the property furnished or to be fur-
nished by the Government under this contract. In
any such case, the Contracting Officer upon the
written request of the Contractor shall equitably
adjust the delivery or performance dates or the
contract price, or both, and any other contractual
provisions affected by the decrease, in accordance
with the procedures provided for in the clause
of this contract entitled "Changes."
(c) Title to the Government-furnished Property
shall remain in the Government. Title to Govern-
ment-furnished Property shall not be affected by
the incorporation or attachment thereof to any
property not owned by the Government, nor shall
such Government-furnished Property, or any part
thereof, be or become a fixture or lose its identity
as personalty by feason of affixation to any realty.
The Contractor shall comply with the provisions of
the "Manual for the Control of Government Prop-
erty in the Possession of Contractors" (Appendix
B, Armed Services Procurement Regulation) as in
effect on the date of the contract, which Manual is
hereby incorporated by reference and made a part
of this contract.
(d) The Government-furnished Property shall,
unless otherwise provided herein, be used only for
the performance of this contract.
(e) The Contractor shall maintain and admin-
ister, in accordance with sound industrial practice,
a program for the maintenance, repair, protection
and preservation of Goverment-furnished Property,
until disposed of by the Contractor in accordance
with this clause. In the event that any damage
occurs to Government-furnished Property the risk
of which has been assumed by the Government
under this contract, the Government shall replace
such items or the Contractor shall make such repair
of the property as the Government directs; provided,
however, that if the Contractor cannot effect such
repair within the time required, the Contractor shall
dispose of such property in the manner directed
by the Contracting Officer. The contract price in-
cludes no compensation to the Contractor for the
performance of any repair or replacement for which
the Government is responsible, and an equitable
adjustment will be made in the contract price for
any such repair or replacement of Government-
furnished Property made at the direction of the
Government. Any repair or replacement for which
the Contractor is responsible under the provisions
of this contract shall be accomplished by the Con-
tractor at his own expense.

therefrom because of any of the following perils:
(A) Fire, lightning; windstorm, cyclone, tornado,
hail; explosion; riot, riot attending a strike, civil
commotion; vandalism and malicious mischief;
sabotage; aircraft or objects falling therefrom;
vehicles running on land or tracks, excluding vehi-
cles owned or operated by the Contractor or any
agent or employee of the Contractor; smoke; sprin-
kler leakage; earthquake or volcanic eruption;
flood, meaning thereby rising of a body of water;
hostile or warlike action, including action in hinder-
ing, combating, or defending against an actual,
impending or expected attack by any government
or sovereign power (de jure or de facto), or by any
authority using military, naval, or air forces, or
by an agent of any such government, power, au-
thority, or forces; or
(B) Other peril, of a type not listed above, if
such other peril is customarily covered by insurance
(or by a reserve for self-insurance) in accordance
with the normal practice of the Contractor, or the
prevailing practice in the industry in which the
Contractor is engaged with respect to similar prop-
erty in the same general locale.
The perils as set forth in (i) and (ii) above are
hereinafter called "excepted perils."
This clause shall not be construed as relieving a
subcontractor from liability for loss or destruction
of or damage to the Government-furnished Prop-
erty while in its possession or control, except to the
extent that the subcontract, with the prior approval
of the Contracting Officer, may provide for the
relief of the subcontractor from such liability. In
the absence of such approval, the subcontract shall
contain appropriate provisions requiring the re-
turn of all Government-furnished Property in as
good condition as when received except for rea-
sonable wear and tear or for the utilization of the
property in accordance with the provisions of the
prime contract.
The term "Contractor's managerial personnel" as
used herein means the Contractor's directors, offi-
cers and any of its managers, superintendents, or
other equivalent representatives who have supervi-
sion or direction of (1) all or substantially all of
the Contractor's business; (ii) all or substantially
all of the Contractor's operation at any one plant
or separate location at which the contract is being
performed; (iii) a separate and complete major in-
dustrial operation in connection with the perform-
ance of this contract.
(2) The Contractor represents that it is not in-
cluding in the price hereunder, and agrees that it
will not hereafter include in any price to the Gov-
ernment, any charge or reserve for insurance (in-
cluding self-insurance funds or reserves) cover-
ing loss or destruction of or damage to the Gov-
ernment-furnished Property caused by any ex-
cepted peril.
(3) Upon the happening of loss or destruction of
or damage to any Government-furnished property
caused by an excepted peril, the Contractor shall
notify the Contracting Officer thereof, and shall
communicate with the Loss and Salvage organiza-
tion, if any, now or hereafter designated by the Con-
tracting Officer, and with the assistance of the Loss
and Salvage Organization so designated (unless the
Contracting Officer has directed that no such or-
ganization be employed), shall take all reasonable
steps to protect the Government-furnished prop-
erty from further damage, separate the damaged
and undamaged Government-furnished property,
put all the Government-furnished property in the
best possible order, and furnish to the Contracting
Officer a statement of: (I) the lost, destroyed and
damaged Government-furnished property (ii) the
time and origin of the loss, destruction or damage,
(iii) all known interests in commingled property
of which the Government-furnished property is a
part, and (iv) the insurance, if any, covering any
part of or interest in such commingled property.
The Contractor shall be reimbursed for the expendi-
tures made by it in performing its obligations under
this subparagraph (3) (including charges made to
the Contractor by the Loss and Salvage organiza-
tion, except any of such charges the payment of
which the Government has, at its option, assumed
directly), to the extent approved by the Contract-
ing officer and set forth in a Supplemental Agree-
ment.
(4) With the approval of the Contracting Officer
after loss or destruction of or damage to Govern-
ment-furnished property, and subject to such con-
ditions and limitations as may be imposed by the
Contracting Officer, the Contractor may, in order
to minimize the loss to the Government or in order
to permit resumption of business or the like, sell
for the account of the Government any item of
Government-furnished property which has been
damaged beyond practicable repair, or which is so
commingled or combined with property of others,

(5) Except to the extent of any loss or destruc-
tion of or damage to Government-furnished prop-
erty for which the Contractor is relieved of liability
under the foregoing provisions of this clause, and
except for reasonable wear and tear or depreciation,
or the utilization of the Government-furnished
property in accordance with the provisions of this
contract, the Government-furnished property (other
than property permitted to be sold) shall be re-
turned to the Government in as good condition
as when received by the Contractor in connection
with this contract, or as repaired under paragraph
(e) above.
(6) In the event the Contractor is reimbursed
or compensated for any loss or destruction of or
damage to the Government-furnished property,
caused by an excepted peril, it shall equitably reim-
burse the Government. The Contractor shall do
nothing to prejudice the Government's rights to
recover against third parties for any such loss,
destruction or damage and, upon the request of
the Contracting Officer, shall at the Government's
expense, furnish to the Government all reasonable
assistance and cooperation (including the prosecu-
tion of suit and the execution of instruments of
assignment in favor of the Government) in obtain-
ing recovery. In addition, where a subcontractor
has not been relieved from liability for any loss or
destruction of or damage to the Government-fur-
nished property, the Contractor shall enforce the
liability of the subcontractor for such loss or de-
struction of or damage to the Government-fur-
nished property for the benefit of the Government.

duction, modification, maintenance or overhaul of
aircraft, or otherwise involves the furnishing of air-
craft by the Government, the "Ground and Flight
Risk" clause of this contract shall control, to the
extent it is applicable, in the case of loss or de-
struction of, or damage to, aircraft. [Rev. No. 6,
11/15/61.]
(g) The Government shall at all reasonable times
have access to the premises wherein any Govern-
ment-furnished property is located.
(h) Upon the completion of this contract, or at
such earlier date as may be fixed by the Contract-
ing Officer, the Contractor shall submit, in a form
acceptable to the Contracting Officer, inventory
schedules covering all items of Government-fur-
nished property not consumed in the performance
of this contract (including any resulting scrap), or
not theretofore delivered to the Government, and
shall deliver or make such other disposal of such
Government-furnished property, as may be directed
or authorized by the Contracting Officer. The net
proceeds of any such disposal shall be credited to
the contract price or shall be paid in such other
manner as the Contracting Officer may direct.
