during the first period specified below. Pricing will thereafter be eligible for adjustment during the second andany succeeding performance period(s). For each performance period after the first, a percentage figure will becalculated as described below and that figure will be the economic price adjustment for that entire next period.

Pricing adjustments under this clause are not applicable to reimbursable postage or transportation costs, or topaper, if paper prices are subject to adjustment by separate clause elsewhere in this contract.For the purpose of this clause, performance under this contract will be divided into successive periods. The first

period will extend from March 1, 2019, and the second and any succeeding period(s) will extend for 12 monthsfrom the end of the last preceding period, except that the length of the final period may vary.

Pricing adjustments in accordance with this clause will be based on changes in the seasonally adjusted "ConsumerPrice Index For All Urban Consumers - Commodities Less Food" (Index) published monthly in the CPI DetailedReport by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The economic price adjustment will be the percentage difference between Index averages as specified in thisparagraph. An index called the variable index will be calculated by averaging the monthly Indexes from the 12-month interval ending three (3) months prior to the beginning of the period being considered for adjustment. This

average is then compared to the average of the monthly Indexes for the 12-month interval ending (insert the date

that is 3 months prior to the beginning of the contract), called the base index. The percentage change (plus or

minus) of the variable index from the base index will be the economic price adjustment for the period being

considered for adjustment.

The Government will notify the contractor by contract modification specifying the percentage increase or

decrease to be applied to invoices for orders placed during the period indicated. The contractor shall apply the

percentage increase or decrease against the total price of the invoice less reimbursable postage or transportation

costs and separately adjusted paper prices. Payment discounts shall be applied after the invoice price is adjusted.

PAPER PRICE ADJUSTMENT: Paper prices charged under this contract will be adjusted in accordance with

"Table 9 - Producer Price Indexes and Percent Changes for Commodity Groupings and Individual Items" in

2. The applicable index figures for the month of March 2018 will establish the base index.3. There shall be no price adjustment for the first three (3) production months of the contract.
base index

where X = the index for that month which is two months prior to the month being considered for

adjustment.

6. The contract adjustment amount, if any, will be the percentage calculated in 5 above less 5%.7. Adjustments under this clause will be applied to the contractor's bid price(s) for line items(s) II. PAPER

in the "Schedule of Prices" and will be effective on the first day of any month for which prices are to beadjusted.

The Contracting Officer will give written notice to the contractor of any adjustments to be applied to invoices for

orders placed during months affected by this clause.
