(a) The Contractor, to provide special emphasis to the em- ployment of qualified disabled veterans and veterans of the Vietnam era, agrees that all suitable employment openings of the Contractor which exist at the time of the execution of this con- tract and those which occur during the performance of this con- tract, including those not generated by this contract and including those occurring at an establishment of the Contractor other than the one wherein the contract is being performed but excluding those of independently operated corporate affiliates, shall be offered for listing at the appropriate office of the State employ- ment service system wherein the opening occurs and to provide reports to such office regarding employment openings and hires as may be required. (b) Listing of employment openings with the employment service system pursuant to this clause shall be made at least con- currently with the use of any other recruitment service or effort and shall involve the normal obligations which attach to the placing of a bona fide job order, including the acceptance of referrals of veterans and non-veterans. Listing of employment openings does not require the hiring of any particular job applicant or from any particular group of job applicants referred by the employment service system. Nothing contained herein is intended to relieve the Contractor from any requirements in any Executive Order or regulation regarding nondiscrimination in employment. (c) (1) Reports required shall include, but not be limited to, periodic reports which shall be filed at least quarterly with the appropriate local State employment service office or, where the Contractor has more than one establishment in a State, with the central office of that State employment service.

(2) Whenever the Contractor becomes contractually bound to the listing provisions of this clause, he shall advise the employ- ment service system in each state wherein he has establishments, of the name and location of each such establishment in the State. As long as the Contractor is contractually bound to these provisions and has so advised the State employment service system, there is no need to advise the State system of subsequent contracts. The Contractor may advise the State system when he is no longer bound by this contract clause. (3) If the contract Is for less than $10,000 or if it is with a State or local government, the procedures set forth in subpara- graphs (1) and (2) of this paragraph (c) are not required. (d) This clause does not apply to the listing of employment openings which occur and are filled outside the 50 States, the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. (e) This clause does not apply to openings which the Contractor proposes to fill from within his own organization or to fill pur- suant to a customary and traditional employer-union hiring ar- rangement. This exclusion does not apply to a particular opening once an employer decides to consider applicants outside of his own organization or employer-union arrangements for that opening.

This term includes full-time employment, temporary employment of more than three (3) days' duration, and part-time employment. (2) "Appropriate office of the State employment service system" means the local office of the Federal-State national system of public employment offices with assigned respon- sibility for serving the area of the establishment where the employment opening is to be filled, including the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. (3) "Openings which the Contractor proposes to fill from within his own organization" means employment openings for which no consideration will be given to persons outside the Contractor's organization (including any affiliates, subsidiaries, and the parent companies), and includes any openings which the Contractor proposes to fill from regularly established "recall" and "rehire" lists. (4) "Openings which the Contractor proposes to fill from within his own organization or to fill pursuant to a customary and traditional employer-union hiring arrangement" means employment openings for which no consideration will be given to persons outside of a special hiring arrangement, including openings which the Contractor proposes to fill from union hiring halls, which is part of the customary and traditional employment relationship existing between the Contractor and representatives of his employees. (5) "Disabled veteran" means a person entitled to dis- ability compensation under laws administered by the Veterans Administration for disability rated at thirty percent (30%) or more, or a person whose discharge or release from active duty was for disability incurred or aggravated in the line of duty. (6) "Veteran of the Vietnam era" means a person who was discharged or released within the 48 months preceding his application for employment covered under this part and who Approved For Release 2006/10/20: CIA-RDP89B00552R000700050008-9 Approved For Release 2006/10/20: CIA-RDP89B00552R0O07t)0050008- w (i) served on active duty for a period of more than 180 days, any part of which occurred after August 5, 1964, and was discharged or released therefrom with other than a dis- honorable discharge, or (ii) was discharged or released from active duty for service-connected disability if any part of such duty was performed after August 5, 1964. (g) The Contractor agrees to place this clause (excluding this paragraph (g)) in any subcontract directly under this contract provided, such subcontract is for $2,500 or more. (Subcontracts for personal services are exempted from this requirement.) (h) Failure of the Contractor to comply with the requirements of this clause may result in termination for default of the contract concerned. ARTICLE 41 7-104.83 COST ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (1974 JAN) (a) Unless the Cost Accounting Standards Board has prescribed rules or regulations exempting the Contractor or this contract from standards, rules, and regulations promulgated pursuant to 50 U.S.C. App. 2168 (Public Law 91-379, August 15, 1970), the Contractor, in connection with this contract shall: (1) By submission of a Disclosure Statement, disclose in writing his cost accounting practices as required by regula- tions of the Cost Accounting Standards Board. The required disclosures must be made prior to contract award unless the Contracting Officer provides a written notice to the Contractor authorizing post-award submission in accordance with regula- tions of the Cost Accounting Standards Board. The practices disclosed for this contract shall be the same as the practices currently disclosed and applied on all other contracts and subcontracts being performed by the Contractor and which contain this Cost Accounting Standards clause. If the Con- tractor has marked the Disclosure Statement to indicate that it contains trade secrets and commercial or financial informa- tion which is privileged and confidential, the Disclosure State- ment will be protected and will not be released outside the Government. (2) Follow consistently the cost accounting practices dis- closed pursuant to (1) above in accumulating and reporting contract performance cost data concerning this contract. If any change in disclosed practices is made for purposes of any contract or subcontract subject to Cost Accounting Stand- ards Board requirements, the change must be applied pro- spectively to this contract, and the Disclosure Statement must be amended accordingly. If the contract price or cost allow- ance of this contract is affected by such changes, adjustment shall be made in accordance with subparagraph (a) (4) or (a) (5) below, as appropriate. (3) Comply with all Cost Accounting Standards in effect on the date of awards of this contract or if the Contractor has submitted cost or pricing data, on the date of final agree- ment on price as shown on the Contractor's signed certificate of current cost or pricing data. The Contractor shall also comply with any Cost Accounting Standard which hereafter becomes applicable to a contract or subcontract of the Con- tractor. Such compliance shall be required prospectively from the date of applicability to such contract or subcontract. (4) (A) Agree to an equitable adjustment as provided in the changes clause of this contract if the contract cost is affected by a change which, pursuant to (3) above, the Con- tractor is required to make his established cost accounting practices whether such practices are covered by a Disclosure Statement or not. (B) Negotiate with the Contracting Officer to determine the terms and conditions under which any Disclosure State- ment change other than changes under (4) (A) above may be made. A change to a Disclosure Statement may be proposed by either the Government or the Contractor, provided, how- ever, that no agreement may be made under this provision, that will increase costs paid by the United States. (5) Agree to an adjustment of the contract price or cost allowance, as appropriate, if he or a subcontractor fails to comply with an applicable Cost Accounting Standards or to follow any practice disclosed pursuant to subparagraphs (a)( 1) and (a) (2) above and such failure results in any in- creased costs paid by the United States. Such adjustment shall provide for recovery of the increased costs to the United States together with interest thereon computed at the rate determined by the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to Public Law 92-41, 85 STAT. 97, or seven percent (7% ) per annum, whichever is less, from the time the payment by the United States was made to the time the adjustment is effected. (b) If the parties fail to agree whether the Contractor or a subcontractor has complied with an applicable Cost Accounting Standard, rule, or regulation of the Cost Accounting Standards Board and as to any cost adjustment demanded by the United States, such failure to agree shall be a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of the disputes clause of this contract. (c) The Contractor shall permit any authorized representatives of the head of the agency, of the Cost Accounting Standards Board, or of the Comptroller General of the United States to ex- amine and make copies of any documents, papers, or records relating to compliance with the requirements of this clause. (d) The Contractor shall include in all negotiated subcontracts which he enters into the substance of this clause except paragraph (b), and shall require such inclusion in all other subcontracts of any tier, except that this requirement shall apply only to negotiated subcontracts in excess of $100,000 where the price negotiated is not based on: (i) Established catalog or market prices of commercial items sold in substantial quantities to the general public, or (ii) prices set by law or regulation. NOTE: (1) Subcontractors shall be required to submit their Disclosure Statements to the Contractor. However, if a subcon- tractor has previously submitted his Disclosure Statement to a Government Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO) he may satisfy that requirement by certifying to the Contractor the date of such Statement and the address of the ACO. (2) In any case where a subcontractor determines that the Dis- closure Statement information is privileged and confidential and declines to provide it to his Contractor or higher tier subcon- tractor, the Contractor may authorize direct submission of that subcontractor's Disclosure Statement to the same Government offices to which the Contractor was required to make submission of his Disclosure Statement. Such authorization shall in no way relieve the Contractor of liability as provided in paragraph (a) (5) of this clause. In view of the foregoing and since the contract may be subject to adjustment under this clause by reason of any failure to comply with rules, regulations, and Standards of the Cost Ac- counting Standards .Board in connection with covered subcontracts, it is expected that the Contractor may wish to include a clause in each such subcontract requiring the subcontractor to appro- priately indemnify the Contractor. However, the inclusion of such a clause and the terms thereof are matters for negotiation and agreement between the Contractor and the subcontractor, provided that they do not conflict with he duties of the Contractor under its contract with the Government. It is also expected that any sub- contractor subject to such indemnification will generally require substantially similar indemnification to be submitted by his sub- contractors. (e) The terms defined in Section 331.2 of Part 331 of Title 4, Code of Federal Regulations (4CFR 331.2) shall have the same meanings herein. As there defined, "negotiated subcontract" means "any subcontract except a firm fixed-price subcontract made by a Contractor or subcontractor after receiving offers from at Approved For Release 2006/10/20: CIA-RDP89B00552R000700050008-9 Approved For Release 2006/10/20: CIA-RDP89B00552R000700050008-9 least two firms not associated with each other or such Contractor or subcontractor, providing (1) the solicitation to all competing firms is identical, (2) price is the only consideration in selecting the subcontractor from among the competing firms solicited, and (3) the lowest offer received in compliance with the solicitation from among those solicited is accepted." 7-103.15 COMMUNIST AREAS (1974 APR) (a) Unless he first obtains the written approval of the Contract- ing Officer, the Contractor shall not acquire for use in the per- formance of this contract: (i) any supplies or services originating from sources within the following communist areas: Albania.
