sentatives shall, until the expiration of three years after final payment under the subcontract, have access to

duty or increase in the rate thereof which would not otherwise have been payable on such transactions or property,

warrants in writing that no amount for such newly imposed Federal excise tax or duty or rate increase was in-
cluded in the contract price as a contingency reserve or otherwise; or
(2) results in the Contractor not being required to pay or bear the burden of, or in his obtaining a refund
or drawback of, any such Federal excise tax or duty which would otherwise have been payable on such transactions
or property or which was the basis of an increase in the contract price, the contract price shall be decreased by
the amount of the relief, refund, or drawback, or that amount shall be paid to the Government, as directed by

negligence or his failure to follow instructions of the Contracting Officer, is required to pay or bear the burden
of, or does not obtain a refund or drawback of, any such Federal excise tax or duty.
(c) No adjustment of less than $100 shall be made in the contract price pursuant to paragraph (b) above.

this is a negotiated contract, the contract date. As to additional supplies or services procured by modification to
this contract, the term "contract date" means the date of such modification.
(e) Unless there does not exist any reasonable basis to sustain an exemption, the Government upon the re-
quest of the Contractor shall, without further liability, furnish evidence appropriate to establish exemption from
any Federal, State, or local tax; provided that, evidence appropriate to establish exemption from any Federal
excise tax or duty which may give rise to either an increase or decrease in the contract price will be furnished only
at the discretion of the Government.
(f), The Contractor shall promptly notify the Contracting Officer of matters which will result in either an
increase or decrease in the contract price, and shall take action with respect thereto as directed by the Contract-
ing Officer.

declared by the Congress that a fair proportion of the purchases and contracts for. supplies and services for the
Government be placed with small business concerns.

that the Contractor finds to be consistent with the efficient performance of this contract.
9. DEFAULT. (Jul. 1962)-(a) The Government may, subject to the provisions of paragraph (c) of this clause,
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 fails to perform the work called for by this contract within the time(s)- 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 prosecute
the work 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 1.0 days (or such longer, period as the Contracting Officer
may authorize 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 pprovided in paragraph (a)
of this clause, the Government may procure, upon such terms and in such manner as the Contracting Officer may
deem appropriate, work similar to the work so terminated .and the 'Contractor shall be liable to the Government for
any -excess costs for such similar work; provided, that the Contractor shall continue the performance of this con-
tract to the extent not terminated under the provisions of this clause.

(c) Except with respect to defaults of subcontractors, 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 without 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 Government 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 de-
fault of a subcontractor, and if such default arises out of causes beyond the control of both the Contractor and sub-
contractor, 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 supplies or service to be furnished by the subcontractor were obtainable
from other sources in sufficient time to permit the Contractor to meet the required delivery schedule or other per-
formance requirements.
(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 deliver to the Gov-
ernment, in the manner and to the extent directed by the Contracting Officer any of the completed or -partially
completed work not theretofore delivered to, and accepted by, the Government and any other property, including
contract rights, specifically produced or specifically acquired for the performance of such part of this contract as
has been terminated; and the Contractor shall, upon the direction of the Contracting Officer, protect and preserve
property in the possession of the Contractor in which the Government has an interest. The Government shall pay
to the Contractor the contract price, if separately stated, for completed work accepted by the Government and the
amount agreed upon by the Contractor and the Contracting Officer for (i) completed work for which no separate
price is stated, (ii) partially completed work, (iii) other property described above -which is accepted by the Gov-
-ernment and, (iv) the protection and preservation of property. Failure to agree shall be a dispute concerning a
question of fact within the meaning of the clause of this contract entitled "Disputes." The Government may with-
hold 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 outstand-
ing liens or claims of former 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 default 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.
(f), The rights and remedies of the Government provided in this clause shall not be exclusive and are in
addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law or under this contract.
10. TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE OF THE GOVERNMENT. (Jan. 1961)-(a) The performance of
work under this contract may be terminated by the Government in accordance with this clause in whole, or from time
to time in part, whenever the Contracting Officer shall determine that such termination is in the best interest of the
Government. Any such termination shall be effected by delivery to the Contractor of a Notice of Termination
specifying the extent to which performance of work under the contract is terminated, and the date upon which
such termination becomes effective.
'(b) After receipt of a Notice of Termination, and except as otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer, the
Contractor shall:
(i) stop work under the contract on the date and to the extent specified in the Notice of Termination;
(ii) place no further orders or subcontracts for materials, services or facilities, except as may be necessary
for completion of such portion of the work under the contract as is not terminated;
(iii) terminate all orders and subcontracts to the extent that they relate to the performance of work ter-
minated by the Notice of Termination;
(iv) assign to the Government, in the manner, at the times, and to the extent directed by the Contracting
Officer, all of the right, title, and interest of the Contractor under the orders and subcontracts so terminated, in
which case the Government shall have the right, in its discretion, to -settle or pay any or all claims arising out of
the termination of such orders and subcontracts;
(v) settle all outstanding liabilities and all claims arising out of such termination of orders and subcontracts,
with the approval or ratification of the Contracting Officer, to the extent he may require, which approval or rati-
ficati-on shall be final for all the purposes of this clause; -
(vi) transfer title and deliver to the Government, in the manner, at the times, and to the extent, if any,
directed by the Contracting Officer, (A) the fabricated or unfabricated parts, work in process, completed work,
supplies, and other material produced as a part of, or acquired in connection with the performance of, the work
terminated by the Notice of Termination, and (B) the completed or partially completed plans, drawings, informa-
tion, and other property which, if the contract had been completed, would have been required to be furnished to
the Government;
(vii) use his 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 transferor disposition shall be applied in reduction of any
payments to be made by the Government to the Contractor under this contract or shall otherwise 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 Notice of
Termination; and
(ix) take such action as may be necessary, or as the Contracting Officer may direct, for the protection and
preservation of the property related to this contract which is in the possession of the Contractor and in which the
Government has or may acquire an interest.

At any time after expiration of the plant clearance period, as defined in Section VIII, Armed Services Procure-
ment Regulation, as it may be amended from time to time, the Contractor may submit to the Contracting Officer a
list, certified as to quantity 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
request the Government to remove such items or enter into a storage agreement covering them. Not later than
fifteen (15) days thereafter, the Government will accept title to such items and remove them or enter into a
storage agreement covering the same; provided, that the list submitted shall be subject to verification by the
Contracting Officer upon removal of the items, or if the items are stored, within forty-five (45) days from the date
of submission of the list, and any necessary adjustment to correct the list as submitted shall be made prior to final
settlement.
1(c), After receipt of a Notice of Termination, the Contractor shall submit to the Contracting Officer his termi-
nation claim, in the form and with certification prescribed by the Contracting Officer. Such claim shall be submitted
promptly but in no event later than .one year from the effective date of termination, unless one or more extensions
in writing are granted by the Contracting Officer, upon request 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 any time after such one year period or
any extension thereof. Upon failure of the Contractor to submit his termination claim within the time allowed, the
Contracting Officer may, subject to any Settlement Review Board approvals required by Section VIII of the Armed
Services 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 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 approvals re-
quired by Section VIII of the Armed Services 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 allowance 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 (e) of
this clause, prescribing the amount to be paid to the Contractor in the event of failure of the Contractor 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 otherwise determine or affect the amount or
amounts which may be agreed upon to be paid to the Contractor pursuant to this paragraph (d).
(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 approvals required by Section VIII of
the Armed Services 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 termination
and shall pay to ,the Contractor the amounts determined as follows:
(1) for completed supplies accepted by the Government (or sold or acquired as provided in paragraph (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, appropriately adjusted for any saving of freight or
other charges;
(ii)i the total of-
(A)i the costs incurred in the performance of the work terminated, including initial costs and preparatory
expense allocable thereto, but exclusive of any costs attributable to supplies paid or to be paid for under paragraph
(e) (i) hereof;
(B)l 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 percent 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 subdivision (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 reasonably
necessary for the preparation of settlement claims and supporting data with respect to the terminated portion of
the contract and for the termination and settlement of subcontracts thereunder, together with reasonable storage,
transportation, 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 Contractor 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 except 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 Regulation, as in
effect on the date of this contract.

(g) The Contractor shall have the right of appeal, 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 paragraph (c) above and has failed to request extension
of such time, he shall have no such right of appeal. In any case where the Contracting Officer has made a deter-
mination of the amount due under paragraph (c) or (e) above, the Government shall pay to the Contractor the fol-
lowing: (i) if there is no right of appeal hereunder or if no timely appeal has been taken, the amount so determined
by the Contracting Officer, or (ii) if an appeal has been taken, the amount finally determined on such appeal.
(h) In arriving at the amount due the Contractor under this clause there shall be deducted (i) all unliquidated
advance or other payments on account theretofore made to the Contractor, applicable to the terminated portion of
this contract, (ii) any 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 acquired by the
Contractor or sold, pursuant to the provisions of this clause, and not otherwise recovered 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 Contracting 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 prescribe, make partial
payments and payments on account against costs incurred by the Contractor in connection with the terminated
portion of this contract 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 determined to be due under this clause, such excess shall be payable by the Con-
tractor to the Government upon demand, together with interest computed at the rate of 6 percent per annum, for
the period from the date such excess payment is received by the Contractor to the date on which such excess is
repaid to the Government; provided, however, .that no interest shall be charged with respect to any such excess
payment attributable to a reduction in the Contractor's claim by reason of retention or other disposition of termi-
nation inventory 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 circumstances.
(k) Unless otherwise provided for in this contract, or by applicable statute, the Contractor, from the effective
date of termination and for a period of three years after final settlement under this contract, shall preserve and make
available to the Government at all reasonable times at the office of the Contractor but without direct charge to the
Government, all his books, records, documents, and other evidence bearing on the costs and expenses of the Con-
tractor under this contract and relating to the work terminated hereunder, or, to the extent approved by the
Contracting Officer, photographs, micro-photographs, or other authentic reproductions thereof.
(The following paragraph (1) is applicable only if this contract is subject to Incentive Price Revision)
(1) Insofar as items under this contract are subject to incentive price revision and the total final price for
such items has not been established under the incentive price revision clause of this contract, the total contract
price shall include, for the purpose of paragraphs (d) and (e) of this clause, the amount which the total final price
for such items may not exceed under the incentive price revision clause.
11. DISPUTES. (Jan. 1958)-(a) Except as otherwise provided in this contract, any dispute concerning a ques-
tion of fact arising under this contract which is not disposed of by agreement shall be decided by the Contracting
Officer, who shall reduce his decision to writing and mail or otherwise turnish a copy thereof to the Contractor. The
decision of the Contracting Officer shall be final and conciusive unless, within 30 days from the date of receipt of
such copy, the Contractor mails or otherwise furnishes to the Contracting Officer a written appeal addressed to the
Secretary. The decision of the Secretary or his duly authorized representative for the determination of such appeals
shall be final and conclusive unless determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been fraudulent, or
capricious, or arbitrary, or so grossly erroneous as necessarily to imply bad faith, or not supported by substantial
evidence. In connection with any appeal proceeding under this clause, the Contractor shall be afforded an oppor-
tunity to be heard and to offer evidence in support of his appeal. Pending final decision of a dispute hereunder, the
Contractor shall proceed diligently with the performance of the contract and in accordance with the Contracting
Officer's decision.
(b) This "Disputes" clause does not preclude consideration of law questions in connection with decisions pro-
vided for in paragraph (a) above; provided, that nothing in this contract shall be construed as making final the
decision of any administrative official, representative, or board on a question of law.
12. RENEGOTIATION. (Oct. 1959)-(a) To the extent required by law, this contract is subject to the Re-
negotiation Act of 1951 (50 U.S.C. App. 1211, et seq.), as amended, and to any subsequent act of Congress provid-
ing for the renegotiation of contracts. Nothing contained in this clause shall impose any renegotiation obligation
with respect to this contract or any subcontract hereunder which is not imposed by an act of Congress heretofore
or hereafter enacted. Subject to the foregoing this contract shall be deemed to contain all the provisions required by
Section 1.04 of the Renegotiation Act of 1951, and by any such other act, without subsequent contract amendment
specifically incorporating such provisions.
(b) The Contractor agrees to insert the provisions of this clause, including this paragraph (b), in all sub-
contracts, as that term is defined in section 1.03g of the Renegotiation Act of 1951, as amended.
13. BUY AMERICAN ACT. (May 1964)-(a) In acquiring end products, the Buy American Act (41 U.S.C. 10
a-d) provides that the Government give preference to domestic source end products. For the purpose of this clause:

(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 5:0, 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 delivered under this contract only domestic source end prod-
ucts, 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 commercial quantities and of a satisfactory quality;
(iii) as to which the Secretary determines the domestic preference to be inconsistent with the public inter-
est; or
(iv) as to which the Secretary determines the cost to the Government to be unreasonable.
(The foregoing requirements are administered in accordance with Executive Order No. 10522, dated
December 17, 1954. So as to alleviate the impact of Department of Defense expenditures on the United States
balance of international payments, bids offering domestic source end products normally will be evaluated against bids
offering other end products by adding a factor of fifty percent (510,%) to the latter, exclusive of import duties. Details
of the evaluation procedure are set forth in Section VI of the Armed Services Procurement Regulation.)

contract, or ten thousand dollars ($10',000) whichever is less, shall have been set aside, such reserve or balance
thereof to be retained until the Contractor shall have furnished to the Contracting Officer:
(i) the final report required by (c) (iii)' of this clause;
(ii) written disclosures for all Inventions required by (c).(i) above which are shown to be due in accordance
with interim reports delivered under (c) (ii) above, or in accordance with such final reports, or are otherwise known
to the Government to he unreported; and
(iii)' the information as to any subcontractor required by (g) below.
No amount shall be withheld under this paragraph when the amount specified by this paragraph is being withheld
under other provisions of this contract. The withholding of any amount or subsequent payment thereof to the Con-
tractor shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights accruing to the Government under this contract. This para-

compliance with the patent provision of a subcontract. In cost-type contracts, "amount of this contract" shall mean
"'estimated cost of this contract."
(g)' Subcontracts.
(1:) The Contractor shall, unless otherwise authorized or directed by the Contracting Officer, include a patent
rights clause containing all of the provisions of this Patent Rights clause except provision (f) in any subcontract
hereunder where a purpose of the subcontract is the conduct of experimental, developmental, or research work. In
the event of refusal by a subcontractor to accept this Patent Rights clause, or if in the opinion of the Contractor
this Patent Rights clause is inconsistent with the policy set forth in ASPR 9-107.2 and 9-107.3, the Contractor:
(i) shall promptly submit a written report to the Contracting Officer setting forth the subcontractor's
reason for such refusal or the reasons the Contractor is of the opinion that the inclusion of this clause would be so
inconsistent, and other pertinent information, which may expedite disposition of the matter; and
(ii) shall not proceed with the subcontract without the written authorization of the Contracting Officer.
The Contractor shall not, in any subcontract or by using such a -subcontract as consideration therefor, acquire any
rights to Subject Inventions for his own use (as distinguished from such rights as may be required solely to fulfill
his contract obligations to the Government in the performance of this contract). 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 the subcontractor
(or by direction of the Contracting Officer) be furnished to the Contractor for transmission to the Contracting Officer.
(2)? The Contractor, at the earliest practicable date, shall also notify the Contracting Officer in writing of
any subcontract containing a patent rights clause, furnish him a copy of such clause, and notify him when such
subcontract is completed. It is understood that the Government is a third party beneficiary of any subcontract clause
granting rights to the Government in Subject Inventions, and the Contractor hereby assigns to the Government
all the rights that he would have to enforce the subcontractor'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 he obligated to enforce the agreements of any subcontractor hereunder relating
to the obligations of the subcontractor to the Government in regard to Subject Inventions.
(h) Licenses Granted by Contractor to Others Subject to Government's Rights. The Contractor recognizes that
the Government, or a foreign government with funds derived through the Military Assistance Program or otherwise
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 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 derived through the Military Assistance 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 and make appropriate
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.
?(i) Rights to Disclose Subject Inventions. The Government may duplicate and disclose reports and disclosures
of Subject Inventions required to be furnished by the Contractor or a subcontractor pursuant to this Patent Rights
clause.

ment-furnished property suitable for use (except, for such property furnished "as is") will be delivered to the
Contractor at the times stated in the Schedule or, if not so stated, in sufficient time to enable the Contractor to

or performance dates or the contract price, or both, and any other contractual provision affected by any such delay,

livery or performance dates or the contract price, or both, and any other contractual provision affected by the re-
jection or disposition, or the repair or modification, in accordance with the procedures provided for in the clause of.

withdrawal of authority, to use property provided under any other contract or lease, which property the Govern-
ment had agreed in the Schedule to make available for the performance of this contract, the Contracting Officer,
upon the written request of the Contractor (or if the substitution of property causes a decrease in the cost of
performance, on his own initiative), shall equitably adjust such contractual provisions as may be affected by the
decrease, substitution, or withdrawal, in accordance with the procedures provided for in the "Changes" clause of this
contract.

erty, or any part thereof, be or become a fixture or lose its identity as personalty by reason of affixation to any
realty.
