SECTION I — CONTRACT CLAUSES
The following have been added by full text:
252.232-7007      LIMITATION OF GOVERNMENT’S OBLIGATION (MAY 2006)
(a) Contract line item(s) 0001 through 0005 are incrementally funded. For these
item(s), the sum of $474,998.00 of the total price is presently available for
payment and allotted to this contract. An allotment schedule is set forth in
paragraph (j) of this clause.
(b) For items(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the Contractor
agrees to perform up to the point at which the total amount payable by the
Government, including reimbursement in the event of termination of those item(s)
for the Government’s convenience, approximates the total amount currently
allotted to the contract. The Contractor is not authorized to continue work on
those item(s) beyond that point. The Government will not be obligated in any
event to reimburse the Contractor in excess of the amount allotted to the
contract for those item(s) regardless of anything to the contrary in the clause
entitled “TERMINATION FOR THE CONVENIENCE OF THE GOVERNMENT.” As used in this
clause, the total amount payable by the Government in the event of termination
of applicable contract line item(s) for convenience includes costs, profit and
estimated termination settlement costs for those item(s).
(c) Notwithstanding the dates specified in the allotment schedule in paragraph
(j) of this clause, the Contractor will notify the Contracting Officer in
writing at least ninety days prior to the date when, in the Contractor’s best
judgment, the work will reach the point at which the total amount payable by the
Government, including any cost for termination for convenience, will approximate
85 percent of the total amount then allotted to the contract for performance of
the applicable item(s). The notification will state (1) the estimated date when
that point will be reached and (2) an estimate of additional funding, if any,
needed to continue performance of applicable line items up to the next scheduled
date for allotment of funds identified in paragraph (j) of this clause, or to a
mutually agreed upon substitute date. The notification will also advise the
Contracting Officer of the estimated amount of additional funds that will be
required for the timely performance of the item(s) funded pursuant to this
clause, for subsequent period as may be specified in the allotment schedule in
paragraph (j) of this clause, or otherwise agreed to by the parties. If after
such notification additional funds are not allotted by the date identified in
the Contractor’s notification, or by an agreed substitute date, the Contracting
Officer will terminate any item(s) for which additional funds have not been
allotted, pursuant to the clause of this contract entitled “TERMINATION FOR THE
CONVENIENCE OF THE GOVERNMENT”.

 

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

P00001
Page 12 of 12
(d) When additional funds are allotted for continued performance of the contract
line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the parties will agree
as to the period of contract performance which will be covered by the funds. The
provisions of paragraph (b) through (d) of this clause will apply in like manner
to the additional allotted funds and agreed substitute date, and the contract
will be modified accordingly.
(e) If, solely by reason of failure of the Government to allot additional funds,
by the dates indicated below, in amounts sufficient for timely performance of
the contract line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of this clause, the
Contractor incurs additional costs or is delayed in the performance of the work
under this contract and if additional funds are allotted, an equitable
adjustment will be made in the price or prices (including appropriate target,
billing, and ceiling prices where applicable) of the item(s), or in the time of
delivery, or both. Failure to agree to any such equitable adjustment hereunder
will be a dispute concerning a question of fact within the meaning of the clause
entitled “disputes.”
(f) The Government may at any time prior to termination allot additional funds
for the performance of the contract line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) of
this clause.
(g) The termination provisions of this clause do not limit the rights of the
Government under the clause entitled “DEFAULT.” The provisions of this clause
are limited to work and allotment of funds for the contract line item(s) set
forth in paragraph (a) of this clause. This clause no longer applies once the
contract if fully funded except with regard to the rights or obligations of the
parties concerning equitable adjustments negotiated under paragraphs (d) or
(e) of this clause.
(h) Nothing in this clause affects the right of the Government to this contract
pursuant to the clause of this contract entitled “TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE OF
THE GOVERNMENT.”
(i) Nothing in this clause shall be construed as authorization of voluntary
services whose acceptance is otherwise prohibited under 31 U.S.C. 1342.
(j) The parties contemplate that the Government will allot funds to this
contract in accordance with the following schedule:
On execution of modification P00001 — $474,998.00
On or about 15 July 2009 — $375,000.00 (End of clause)
