The Contractor shall provide the supplies and services set forth
in the attached Appendix I, such Appendix I being a part of the
Schedule under this contract.
PART II - CONSIDERATION AND PAYMENT
a. In accordance with the clause of this contract entitled
"PAIMENTS," and subject to redetermination of the price in accord-
ance with the part of this Schedule entitled "PRICE RiATION,"
the Government shall pay the Contractor upon satisfactory performance
of this contract, as full payment for the supplies and services to
be furnished hereunder, the amount of $2,750,000.00 which
amount is the total price set forth in Appendix I hereto.
b. As of the date of execution of this contract, there has
been allotted for this contract the amount set forth above. This
amount is subject to increase or decrease, in accordance with the
part of this Schedule entitled, "PRICE REDET NATION." In addi-
tion, the Government may increase this amount from time to time
solely at its discretion, such increased amount to be subject at
the proper time to the redetermination provisions of the part of
this Schedule entitled "PRICE REDETERMINATION." If at any time the
Contractor has reason to believe that by reason of performance by
it, of this contract, the amount due it will exceed the sum allotted
to this contract, it shall notify the Contracting Officer to that
effect. Notwithstanding any other provision of this contract, the
Contractor shall not be obligated to furnish any services pursuant
to this contract, if in the best judgment of the Contractor, the
cost of such services will exceed the amount allotted to this con-
tract. The Government shall not be obligated to pay the Contractor
under this contract any amount in excess of the sum allotted.

entitled "changes" the equipment and/or supplies covered hereunder

PART IV - PRICE ON
a. Because of the experimental and developmental nature of the
work called for by this contract and the great uncertainty as to the
cost of performance hereunder, the parties agree that the contract
prices set forth in Appendix I hereof may be increased or decreased
in accordance with the provisions of this clause.
b. Upon expenditure of 75 percent of the total contract amount
as set forth in Part II hereof, the parties shall negotiate to revise
the price of all items theretofore and thereafter to be delivered.
c. As soon as practicable and in no case more than 45 days after
expenditure of funds referred to above, the contractor shall furnish
to the Contracting Officer a statement showing in such form and detail
as the Contracting Officer may prescribe the Contractor's cost of pro-
ducing the supplies or furnishing the services called for hereunder,
together with such information as may be pertinent in the negotiations
for a revised price pursuant to this clause. Such statement of cost
shall fairly reflect the normal operation of the Contractor's cost
system except to such extent, if any, as security restrictions neces-
sitate minor departures therefrom.
d. Upon the filing of the statement and other pertinent informa-
tion required by paragraph (c) of this Clause, the Contractor and the
Contracting Officer will promptly negotiate in good faith to agree
upon a reasonable revised price for the entire contract which, upon
the basis of such statement and other pertinent information, will con-
stitute fair and just compensation to the Contractor for the perform-
ance of this contract. In determining the extent of any estimated
allowance for profit to be taken into account in fixing such revised
price, consideration will be given to the extent to which the Con-
tractor has performed the contract with efficiency, economy, and in-
genuity. The. revised price shall be evidenced by a supplemental agree-
ment to this contract, and in the event that the negotiations for price
revision in accordance with this Clause indicate that the uncertainty
as to the cost of complete performance is still so great as to prevent
a realistic determination of the final price for the over-all comple-
tion of this contract, provision may be made for such future revision
of the price as may be appropriate to the circumstances at that time.
e. If within 60 days after expenditure of funds referred to in
(b) above the parties shall fail to agree upon a revised price in
accordance with the provisions of this Clause, the failure to agree
shall be deemed to be a disagreement as to a question of fact which
shall be disposed of in accordance with the Clause hereof entitled
"Disputes."

f. In the event of a price increase the Government will pay or
credit to the Contractor the amount by which the revised prices
shall exceed the contract price aforesaid. In the event of a de-
crease in price, the Contractor will repay or credit the amount of
such decrease to the Government in such manner as the Contracting
Officer may direct.
PART V - PROGRESS PAThENTS
a. Progress payments, which are hereby defined as
to acceptance on work in progress payments for the Government under this prior
his con-
tract, may be made upon the following terms and conditions.
b. The Contracting Officer may, from time to time, authorize
progress payments to the Contractor upon property acquired or pro-
duced and services performed by it for the performance of this con-
tract: PROVIDED, that such progress payments shall not exceed 90
percent of the cost to the Contractor of the property and services
upon which payment is made, which costs shall be determined from
evidence submitted by the Contractor and which must be such as is
satisfactory to the Contracting Officer as being representative of
the value of the work already performed; Provided further, that in
no event shall the total of unliquidated progress payments (see (e)
below) and of unliquidated advance payments, if any, made under this
contract, exceed 80 percent of the total contract price of supplies
or services still to be delivered.
c. Upon the making of any progress payments under this con-
tract, title to all parts, materials, inventories, work in process
and nondurable tools theretofore acquired or produced by the Con-
tractor for the performance of this contract, and properly chargeable
thereto under sound accounting practice, shall forthwith vest in the
Government; and title to all like property thereafter acquired or
produced by the contractor for the performance of this contract and
properly chargeable thereto as aforesaid shall vest in the Government
forthwith upon said acquisition or production: Provided, that nothing
herein shall deprive the Contractor of any further progress or final
payments due or to become due hereunder; or relieve the Contractor or
the Government of any of their respective rights or obligations under
this contract.
d. The Contractor represents and warrants that the property,
upon which any progress payment is made hereunder, shall be cleared
of all liens and encumbrances of any kind whatsoever upon receipt of
any progress payment.
e. In making payment for the supplies furnished hereunder, there
shall be deducted from the contract price therefor a proportionate
amount of the progress payments theretofore made to the Contractor,
under the authority herein contained.

f. It is recognized that property (including, without limita-
tion completed supplies, spare parts, drawings, information, par-
tially completed supplies, work in process, materials, fabricated
parts and other things called for herein) title to which is or may
hereafter become vested in the Government pursuant to this Clause
will from time to time be used by or put in the care, custody or
possession of the Contractor in connection with the performance of
this contract. The Contractor, either before or after receipt of
Notice of Termination at the option of the Government, may acquire
or dispose of property to which title is vested in the Government
under this clause, upon terms approved by the Contracting Officer;
provided, that after receipt of Notice of Termination any such pro-
perty that is a part of termination inventory may be acquired or
disposed of only in accordance with the provisions of the termination
clause of this contract and applicable laws and regulations. The
agreed price (in case of acquisition by the Contractor) or the pro-
ceeds received by the Contractor (in case of any other disposition),
shall, to the extent that such price and proceeds do not exceed the
unliquidated balance of progress payments hereunder, be paid or
credited to the Government as the Contracting Officer shall direct;
and such unliquidated balance shall be reduced accordingly. Current
production scrap may be sold by the Contractor without approval of the
Contracting Officer but the proceeds will be applied as provided in
this paragraph (f), provided that any such scrap which is a part of
termination inventory may be sold only in accordance with the provi-
sions of the termination clause of this contract and applicable laws
and regulations. Upon liquidation of all progress payments hereunder
or upon completion of deliveries called for by this contract, title
to all property (or the proceeds thereof) which had not been delivered
to and accepted by the Government under this contract or which has not
been incorporated in supplies delivered to and accepted by the Govern-
ment under this contract and to which title has vested in the Govern-
ment under this Clause shall vest in the Contractor.
g. The provisions of this contract referring to "Liability for
Government-furnished Property" and any other provisions of this con-
tract defining liability for Government-furnished property shall be
inapplicable to property to which the Government shall have acquired
title solely by virtue of the provisions of this Clause. The provi-
sions of this Clause shall not relieve the Contractor from risk of
loss or destruction of or damage to property to which title vests in
the Government under the provisions hereof.
h. If this contract (as heretofore or hereafter supplemented
or amended) contains provisions for Advance Payments, and in addition
if at the time any progress payment is to be made to the Contractor
under the provisions of this progress payments clause any unliquidated

balance of advance payments is outstanding, then notwithstanding any
other provision of the Advance Payments Clause of this contract the
net amount, after appropriate deduction for liquidation of the advance
payment of such progress payment shall be deposited in the special
bank account or accounts maintained as required by the provisions of
the Advance Payments Clause, and shall thereafter be withdrawn only
pursuant to such provisions.
PART VI - INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE OF SUPPLIES AND CORRECTIONS OF DEFECTS
a. The Contractor shall provide and maintain an inspection
system acceptable to the Contracting Officer covering the supplies
hereunder.
b. All supplies (including raw materials, components, intermediate
assemblies and end products) may be inspected by the Contracting Officer
at any time during the period of manufacture. If the Contracting Officer
so elects by notice in writing to the Contractor, the Contractor shall
tender the supplies for acceptance at the specified delivery points
specified in Part III hereof, in which event the Contracting Officer
may accept them or, if they are defective in material or workmanship or
otherwise not in conformity with the requirements of this contract, may
reject them or require their correction. In the event the Contracting
Officer does not so elect, supplies delivered shall be deemed to be ac-
cepted upon the mailing by the Contractor to the Contracting Officer of
a certificate of the Contractor, reading substantially as follows:
I hereby certify that I did, on the day of
, ship via

units (or___,_ per cent) of the supplies called for
in Item therein: that such supplies were
of the quality called for and were in all respects
in accord with the applicable specifications.
c. Upon completion of performance and final payment by the Govern-
ment, all the supplies called for herein shall be deemed to be finally
accepted, subject to the following guaranty:
The Contractor guarantees that at the time of delivery
thereof, the articles and/or equipment provided for under
this contract will be free from any defects in material or
workmanship and will conform to the requirements of this
contract. Notice of any such defect or nonconformance shall
be given by the Government to the Contractor within six
months of the delivery of the defective or nonconforming
article and/or equipment. If required by the Government

Contract No. SP-1915
within a reasonable time after such notice, the Con-
tractor shall with all possible speed correct or replace
the defective or nonconforming article and/or equipment
or part thereof. When such correction or replacement
requires transportation of the article and/or equipment
or part thereof, shipping costs, not exceeding usual
charges from the delivery point to the Contractor's plant
and return, shall be borne by the Contractor; the Gov-
ernment shall bear all other shipping costs. This
Guaranty shall then continue as to corrected or replacing
articles and/or equipment or parts thereof, until six
months after the date of redelivery. If the Government
does not require correction or replacement of a defective
or nonconforming article and/or equipment or a part thereof,
the Contractor, if required by the Contracting Officer
within a reasonable time after the notice of defect or
nonconformance shall repay such portion of the contract
price of the article as is equitable in the circumstances.
PART VII - FURNISHING OF MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES AT THE GOVERNMENV S
O PIO
The Government may at its option, from time to time, furnish
the Contractor with materials or supplies not obtainable in the
open market and which are required by the Contractor for the per-
forma nce of this contract. In such event an equitable reduction in
the contract price shall be made prior to the delivery of such
materials or supplies to the Contractor, or as soon thereafter as
possible, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after such
delivery.
PART VIII - WAIVER OF REQUIIITS OF GENERAL PROVISIONS
Notwithstanding the requirements of any of the General Provi-
sions of this contract to the contrary, whensoever the Contractor,
in performance of the work under this contract, shall find that the
requirements of any of the clauses of the General Provisions are in
conflict with security instructions issued to the Contractor by the
Contracting Officer or by his duly authorized representative for
security matters, the Contractor shall call the attention of the Con-
tracting Officer to such conflict and the Contracting Officer or his
duly authorized representative for security matters shall (i) modify
or rescind such security requirements or (ii) the Contracting Officer
shall issue to the Contractor a waiver of compliance with the require-
ments of the General Provisions conflicting with such security require-
ments. Any waiver of compliance with the General Provisions of this
contract issued by the Contracting Officer shall be in writing, except
that the approval by the Contracting Officer of any subcontract issued
hereunder by the Contractor shall be deemed to constitute approval of
waiver of any clauses of the General Provisions in conflict with the
stipulations of such subcontract.

department of the Government without the express consent of the Con-
tracting Officer or his duly authorized representative for security
matters.

plants, or such part thereof as may be engaged in the performance of
this contract shall at all reasonable times be subject to inspection
and audit when and to the extent authorized by the Contracting Officer.
b. The Contractor agrees to include in each of his subcontracts
hereunder which is on a cost or cost-plus-a-fixed fee or a price re-
determination basis, or on a time-and-material or labor-hour basis,
provision for audit of such subcontract by the Contractor. The Con-
tractor shall conduct an audit of any such subcontract when requested
to do so by the Contracting Officer.
PART XI - SUBCONTRACTS FOR WORK OR SERVICES

purchase, rental, installation or other acquisition, of any item of
industrial facilities, or of special tooling having a value in ex-
cess of $1,000 or (4) is on a time-and-material or labor-hour basis.
The Contracting Officer may, in his discretion, ratify in writing
any such subcontract; such action shall constitute the consent of
the Contracting Officer as required by this paragraph c.
d. The Contractor agrees that no subcontract placed under this
contract shall provide for payment on a cost-plus-a-percentage-of
cost basis.
e. The Contracting Officer may, in his discretion, specifically
approve in writing any of the provisions of a subcontract. However,
such approval or the consent of the Contracting Officer obtained as
required by this clause shall not be construed to constitute a deter-
mination of the acceptability of the subcontract price, unless such
approval specifically provides that it constitutes a determination of
the acceptability of the subcontract price.
f. The Contracting Officer may approve all or any part of the
Contractor's purchasing system and from time to time rescind or rein-
state such approval. Such approval shall be deemed to fulfill the
requirements for obtaining the Contracting Officer's consent to sub-
contracts as prescribed in paragraph c above.

tions. Upon the completion of (i) or (ii) above, the Contracting Officer

or performance dates or the contract price, or both, and any other con-
tractual provision affected by the rejection or disposition, or the re-
pair or modification, in accordance 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 Gov-
ernment-furnished Property or delivery of such property in a condition
not suitable for its intended use.

property furnished or to be furnished by the Government under this con-
tract. In any such case, the Contracting Officer upon the written re-
quest of the Contractor shall equitably adjust the delivery or per-
formance dates or the contract price, or both, and any other contrac-
tual provisions affected by the decrease, in accordance with the pro-
cedures provided for in the clause of this contract entitled "Changes."
