1. DEFINITIONS
As used throughout this contract, the following
terms shall have the meanings set forth below:
(a). The term "Secretary" means the Secretary,
the Under Secretary, or any Assistant Sec-
retary of the Department, and the head or
any assistant head of the Federal agency;
and the term "his duly authorized represent-
ative" means any person or persons or board
(other than the Contracting Officer) author-
ized to act for the Secretary.
The term "Contracting Officer" means the
person executing this contract on behalf of
the Government, and any other officer or
civilian employee who is a properly desig-
nated Contracting Officer; and the term in-
cludes, except as otherwise provided in this
contract, the authorized representative of a
Contracting Officer acting within the limits
of his authority.
(c) Except as otherwise provided in this contract,
the term "subcontracts" includes purchase or -
ders under this contract.
2. CHANGES
The Contracting Officer may at any time, by a writ-
ten 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 supplies to be
furnished are to be specially manufactured 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 eq-
uitable adjustment 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 adjustment 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

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 con -
tract as changed.
3. EXTRAS
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 writ-
ing by the Contracting Officer.
4. VARIATION IN QUANTITY
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 manufacturing
processes, and then only to the extent, if any, speci-
fied elsewhere in this contract.
5. INSPECTION
(a) All supplies (which term throughout this clause
includes without limitation raw materials, components,
intermediate assemblies, and end products) 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 ac -
ceptance.
(b) In case any supplies or lots of supplies are de -
fective 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 correction. Supplies or lots of sup-
plies which have been rejected or required to be cor -
rected shall be removed or, if permitted or required by
the Contracting Officer, 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 remove
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 Government either (i)
may by contract or otherwise replace or correct such
supplies and charge to the Contractor the cost occa-
sioned 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
schedule, the Contracting Officer may require thede-
livery 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 concerning
a question of fact within the meaning of the clause of
this contract entitled "Disputes."
ment on the premises of the Contractor or a subcon-
tractor, the Contractor without additional charge shall
provide all reasonable facilities and assistance for the
safety and convenience of the Government inspectors
id the performance of their duties. If Government in-
spection or test is made at a point other than the
premises of the Contractor or a subcontractor, it shall
be at the expense of the Government except as other-
wise provided in this contract; provided, that in case of
rejection the Government shall not be liable for any re -
duction in value of samples used in connection 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 re -
serves the right to charge to the Contractor any addi -
tional cost of Government inspection and test when
supplies are not ready at the time such inspection and
test is requested by the Contractor or when reinspec -
tion or retest is necessitated by prior rejection. Ac-
ceptance or rejection of the supplies shall be made as
promptly as practicable after delivery, except as
otherwise provided in this contract; but failure to in-
spect and accept or reject supplies shall neither re-
lieve the Contractor from responsibility for such sup-
plies as are not in accordance with the contract re-
quirements nor impose liability on the Government
therefor.
(d) The inspection and test by the Government of
any supplies or lots thereof does not relieve the Con-
tractor from any responsibility regarding defects or
other failures to meet the contract requirements which
may be discovered prior to acceptance. Except as
otherwise provided in this contract, acceptance 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 cover -
tug the supplies hereunder. Records of all inspection
work by the Contractor shall be kept complete and
available to the Government during the performance of
this contract and for such longer period as may be spe -
cified elsewhere in this contract.
6. RESPONSIBILITY FOR SUPPLIES
Except as otherwise provided in this contract, (i)
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 Government at
the designated point and prior to acceptance 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, destruction, or damage results from
the negligence of officers, agents, or employees of the
Government acting within the scope of their employ-
ment; and (iii) the Contractor shall bear all risks as to
rejected 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

negligence of officers, agents, or employees of the
Government acting within the scope of their employ-
ment.
7. PAYMENTS
The Contractor shall be paid, upon the submission of
proper invoices or vouchers, the prices stipulated
herein for supplies delivered and accepted or services
rendered and accepted, less deductions, if any, as here-
in provided. Unless otherwise specified, payment will
be made on partial deliveries accepted by the Govern-
ment when the amount due on such deliveries so war -
rants; or, when requested by the Contractor, payment
for accepted partial deliveries shall be made whenever
such payment would equal or exceed either $1,000 or
50 percent of the total amount of this contract.

Claims Act of 1940, as amended (31 U. S. Code 203, 41

to become due the Contractor from the Government un -
der this contract may be assigned to a bank, trust
company, or other financing institution, including any
Federal lending agency, and may thereafter be further

such assignment or reassignment shall cover all
amounts payable under this contract and not already
paid, and shall not be made to more than one party, ex-
cept 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. Not-
withstanding any provisions of this contract, payments
to an assignee of any monies due or to become due
under this contract shall not, to the extent provided in
said Act, as amended, be subject to reduction or set-
off. (The preceding sentence applies only if this con-
tract is with the Department of Defense, the General
Services Administration, the Atomic Energy Commis-
sion, or any other department or agency of the United
States designated by the President pursuant to clause
4 of the proviso of section 1 of the Assignment of
Claims Act of 1940, as amended by the Act of May
15, 1951, 65 Stat. 41.)

same: Provided, That a copy of any part or all of this
contract so marked may be furnished, or any informa-
tion contained therein may be disclosed, to such as -
signee upon the prior written authorization of the Con -
tracting Officer.

11. DEFAULT
(a) The Government may, subject to the pro-
visions of paragraph (c) below, by written notice of de-
fault to the Contractor, terminate the whole or any part
of this contract in any one of the following circum-
stances:
(i) if the Contractor fails to make delivery of
the supplies or to perform the services within
the time specified herein or any extension thereof;
(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 authorize
in writing) after receipt of notice from the Con -
tracting Officer specifying such failure.
(b) In the event the Government terminates this
contract in whole or in part as provided in paragraph

tract 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 ex-
cess 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 in -
dude, 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, epi-
demics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight em-
bargoes, and unusually severe weather; but in every
case the failure to perform mustbebeyondthe 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 subcon-
tractor, 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
services to be furnished by the subcontractor were ob-
tainable from other sources in sufficient time to permit
the Contractor to meet the required delivery schedule.
(d) If this contract is terminated as provided in
paragraph (a) of this clause, the Government, inaddi-
tion to any other rights provided in this clause, may
require the Contractor to transfer title and deliver to
the Government, in the manner and to the extent di-
rected 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 produced or specifically acquired for
the performance of such part of this contract as has
been terminated; and the Contractor shall, upon direc -
tion of the Contracting Officer, protect and preserve
property in possession of the Contractor in which the
Government has an interest. Payment for completed
supplies delivered to and accepted by the Government
shall be at the contract price. Payment for manufac -
turing 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 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 "Disputes."
(e) If, after notice of termination of this contract
under the provisions of paragraph (a) of this clause,
it is determined that the failure to perform this con-
tract is due to causes beyond the control and without
the fault or negligence of the Contractor or subcontrac -
tor pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (c) of this
clause, such notice of default shall be deemed to have
been issued pursuant to the clause of this contract en-
titled "Termination for Convenience of the Govern-
ment," and the rights and obligations of the parties
hereto shall in such event be governed by such clause.
(Except as otherwise provided in this contract, this
paragraph (e) applies only if this contract contains such
clause.)

in addition to any other rights and remedies provided
by law or under this contract.

any dispute concerning a question of fact arising
under this contract which is not disposed of by
agreement shall be decided by the Contracting Offi-
cer, who shall reduce his decision to writing and
mail or otherwise furnish a copy thereof to the Con-
tractor. The decision of the Contracting Officer shall
be final and conclusive 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 deci-
sion of the Secretary or his duly authorized representa -
tive for the determination of such appeals shall be final
and conclusive unless determined by a court of com-
petent jurisdiction to have been fraudulent, or capri-
cious, or arbitrary, or so grossly erroneous as neces -
sarily to imply bad faith, or not supported by substan -
tial evidence. In connection with any appeal proceeding
under this clause, the Contractor shall be afforded an
opportunity to be heard and to offer evidence in support
of its appeal. Pending final decision of a dispute here-
under, 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 con -
sideration of law questions in connection with decisions
provided for in paragraph (a) above: Provided, That
nothing in this contract shall be construed as making
final the decision of any administrative official, repre-
sentative, or board on a question of law.

PATENT INFRINGEMENT
The provisions of this clause shall be applicable
only if the amount of this contract exceeds $10,000.
(a) The Contractor shall report to the Contracting
Officer, promptly and in reasonable written detail, each
notice or claim of patent infringement based on the per -
formance of this contract of which the Contractor has
knowledge.
(b) In the event of any suit against the Government,
or any claim against the Government made before suit
has been instituted, on account of any alleged patent in -
fringement arising out of the performance of this con-
tract or out of the use of any supplies furnished or
work or services performed hereunder, the Contractor
shall furnish to the Government, upon request, all
evidence and information in possession of the Con-
tractor pertaining to such suit or claim. Such evidence
and information shall be furnished at the expense of
the Government except in those cases in which the
Contractor has agreed to indemnify the Government
against the claim being asserted.

terials, and supplies, which are directly incorpor -
ated 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

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

same type or kind as the products referred to in
(b) (ii) of this clause shall be treated as compo-
nents mined, produced, or manufactured in the
United States.

livered under this contract only domestic source end
products, except end products:

(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.

cordance with Executive Order No. 10582, dated De-
cember 17, 1954.)
