the Investor (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends,
recapitalizations and similar events occurring after the date of this Agreement) , (b) the shares
of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of the convertible preferred stock
or stock options currently held by the Investor, and (c) any other shares of Common Stock issued in
respect of such shares (because of stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications,
recapitalizations or similar events); provided, however, that shares of Common Stock which are
Registrable Shares shall cease to be Registrable Shares (i) upon any sale or distribution pursuant
to a Registration Statement or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or (ii) at such time, following an
Initial Public Offering, as they become eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the
Securities Act.

          “Registration Expenses” means all expenses incurred by the Company in complying with
the provisions of Section 2, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees,

Commission for a public offering and sale of securities of the Company (other than (i) a
registration statement on Form S-8 or Form S-4, or their successors, or any other form for a
similar limited purpose, or any registration statement covering only securities proposed to be
issued in exchange for securities or assets of another corporation or (ii) a registration statement
filed solely to register the distribution of shares held by Sky to its stockholders).

          “Securities Act” means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any successor
federal statute, and the rules and regulations of the Commission issued under such Act, as they
each may, from time to time, be in effect.

          “Sky” means Sky Capital Enterprises Inc.

     2. Registration Rights.

               2.1 Incidental Registration.

                    (a) Whenever the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement at any time and from time
to time, it will, prior to such filing, give written notice to the Investor of its intention to do
so. Upon the written request of the Investor given within 20 days after the Company provides such
notice (which request shall state the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Shares),
the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Shares which the Company has been
requested by the Investor to register to be registered under the Securities Act to the extent
necessary to permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with the intended methods of
distribution specified in the request of the Investor; provided that the Company shall have the
right to postpone or withdraw any registration initiated pursuant to this Section 2.1 without
obligation to the Investor.

2

 

                    (b) If the registration for which the Company gives notice pursuant to Section 2.1(a) is a
registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Investor as a
part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2.1(a). In such event, (i) the right of the
Investor to include its Registrable Shares in such registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall
be conditioned upon the Investor’s participation in such underwriting on the terms set forth herein
and (ii) the Investor, if it desires to include Registrable Shares in such registration, shall
enter into an underwriting agreement upon customary terms with the underwriter or underwriters
selected for the underwriting by the Company; provided that such underwriting agreement
shall not provide for indemnification or contribution obligations on the part of the Investor
materially greater than the obligations of the Investor pursuant to Section 2.4. If the Investor
disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, it may elect, subject to the terms of any
power-of-attorney and/or custody arrangements it may have entered into, by written notice to the
Company, to withdraw its shares from such Registration Statement and underwriting. If the managing
underwriter advises the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the
number of shares to be underwritten, then (x) first the shares held by holders of securities of the
Company other than the Investor, Sky and the Other Individual Holder (but not including the
Company) shall be excluded from such Registration Statement and underwriting to the extent deemed
advisable by the managing underwriter, and (y) if a further reduction of the number of shares is
required, the number shall be so reduced (A) first by reducing the number of shares to be included
by the Investor and the Other Individual Holder, such reduction to be made in such proportions
between them so that they are each able to include shares in the Registration Statement pro rata in
accordance with the number of Registrable Shares then held by each of them, and (b) second, if a
further reduction is required, by reducing the number of shares that may be included by Sky.

               2.2 Registration Procedures.

                    (a) If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of this Agreement to use its
best efforts to effect the registration of any Registrable Shares under the Securities Act, the
Company shall:

                         (i) file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Shares
as expeditiously as possible and use its best efforts to cause that Registration Statement to
become effective as soon as possible;

                         (ii) as expeditiously as possible prepare and file with the Commission any amendments and
supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus included in the Registration Statement
as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act (including the anti-fraud
provisions thereof) and to keep the Registration Statement effective for 12 months from the
effective date or such lesser period until all such Registrable Shares are sold;

                         (iii) as expeditiously as possible furnish to the Investor such reasonable numbers of copies
of the Prospectus, including any preliminary Prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and such other documents as the Investor may reasonably request in order to
facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Shares;

3

 

                    (iv) as expeditiously as possible use its best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable
Shares covered by the Registration Statement under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such states
as the Investor shall reasonably request, and do any and all other acts and things that may be
necessary or desirable to enable the Investor to consummate the public sale or other disposition in
such states of the Registrable Shares; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in
connection with this paragraph (iv) to qualify as a foreign corporation or to execute a general
consent to service of process in any jurisdiction or to amend its Certificate of Incorporation or
By-laws in a manner that the Board of Directors of the Company determines is inadvisable;

                    (v) as expeditiously as possible, cause all such Registrable Shares to be listed on each
securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company
are then listed;

                    (vi) promptly provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Shares not later
than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

                    (vii) promptly make available for inspection by the Investor, any managing underwriter
participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement, and any attorney or
accountant or other agent retained by any such underwriter or selected by the Investor, all
financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and cause
the Company’s officers, directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all information
reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection
with such Registration Statement;

                    (viii) notify the Investor, promptly after it shall receive notice thereof, of the time when
such Registration Statement has become effective or a supplement to any Prospectus forming a part
of such Registration Statement has been filed; and

                    (ix) as expeditiously as possible following the effectiveness of such Registration Statement,
notify the Investor of any request by the Commission for the amending or supplementing of such
Registration Statement or Prospectus.

               (b) If the Company has delivered a Prospectus to the Investor and after having done so the
Prospectus is amended to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Company shall
promptly notify the Investor and, if requested, the Investor shall immediately cease making offers
of Registrable Shares and shall return all Prospectuses to the Company. The Company shall promptly
provide the Investor with revised Prospectuses and, following receipt of the revised Prospectuses,
the Investor shall be free to resume making offers of the Registrable Shares.

               (c) In the event that, in the judgment of the Company, it is advisable to suspend use of a
Prospectus included in a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2.1 due to pending
material developments or other events that have not yet been publicly disclosed and as to which the
Company believes public disclosure would be detrimental to the Company, the Company shall notify
the Investor to such effect, and, upon receipt of such notice, the Investor shall immediately
discontinue any sales of Registrable Shares pursuant to such

4

 

Registration Statement until the Investor has received copies of a supplemented or amended
Prospectus or until the Investor is advised in writing by the Company that the then current
Prospectus may be used and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are
incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in such Prospectus.

               2.3 Allocation of Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses for all
registrations under this Agreement.

               2.4 Indemnification and Contribution.

                    (a) In the event of any registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act
pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Investor, each
underwriter of Registrable Shares, and each other person, if any, who controls the Investor or such
underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Investor, or such underwriter or
controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, state securities
or Blue Sky laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions
in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable
Shares were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus
contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration
Statement, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or
alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law
or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state
securities law in connection with the Registration Statement or the offering or distribution
contemplated thereby; and the Company will reimburse the Investor, any such underwriter and each
such controlling person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by the Investor or
such underwriter or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that with respect to each of
the foregoing the Company will not be liable to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or
liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission made in such Registration
Statement, preliminary prospectus or prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance
upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company, in writing, by or on behalf of
the Investor or any such underwriter or controlling person specifically for use in the preparation
thereof.

                    (b) In the event of any registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act
pursuant to this Agreement, the Investor will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its
directors and officers and each underwriter (if any) and each person, if any, who controls the
Company or any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act,
against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company, such
directors and officers, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities
Act, Exchange Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration
Statement under which such Registrable Shares were

5

 

registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained
in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or
(ii) any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, if and to the extent (and only to the
extent) that the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information
relating to the Investor furnished in writing to the Company by the Investor specifically for use
in connection with the preparation of such Registration Statement, prospectus, amendment or
supplement; provided, however, that the obligations of the Investor hereunder in
connection with the sale of Registrable Shares under a Registration Statement shall be limited to
an amount equal to the net proceeds to the Investor of the Registrable Shares sold in connection
with such registration.

                    (c) Each Indemnified Party shall give notice to the Indemnifying Party promptly after such
Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall
permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting
therefrom; provided, however, that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall
conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); and, provided,
further, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall
not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 2.4 except to the extent
that the Indemnifying Party is materially and adversely prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnified
Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; provided, however,
that the Indemnifying Party shall pay such expense if the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes
that representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party
would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between the Indemnified Party
and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding; provided
further that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be required to pay the expenses of
more than one law firm per jurisdiction as counsel for the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying
Party also shall be responsible for the expenses of such defense if the Indemnifying Party does not
elect to assume such defense. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or
litigation shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any
judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the
giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in
respect of such claim or litigation, and no Indemnified Party shall consent to entry of any
judgment or settle such claim or litigation without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying
Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

                    (d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the
indemnification provided for in this Section 2.4 is due in accordance with its terms but for any
reason is held to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect to any losses, claims, damages
and liabilities referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such
Indemnified Party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result
of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such party may be subject in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the
Investor on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative fault of the Company and the Investor shall be determined by

6

 

reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of material
fact related to information supplied by the Company or the Investor and the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission. The Company and the Investor agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 2.4(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other
method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.4(d), in connection with the sale of Registrable
Shares pursuant to a Registration Statement, in no case shall the Investor be liable or responsible
for any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by the Investor from the offering of
Registrable Shares; provided, however, that no person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Any party
entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit
or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against
another party or parties under this Section 2.4(d), notify such party or parties from whom
contribution may be sought, but the omission so to notify such party or parties from whom
contribution may be sought shall not relieve such party from any other obligation it or they may
have thereunder or otherwise under this Section 2.4(d). No party shall be liable for contribution
with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or claim settled without its prior written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

                    (e) The rights and obligations of the Company and the Investor under this Section 2.4 shall
survive the termination of this Agreement.

               2.5 Other Matters with Respect to Underwritten Offerings. In the event that
Registrable Shares are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement in an underwritten offering
pursuant to Section 2.1, the Company agrees to (a) enter into an underwriting agreement containing
customary representations and warranties with respect to the business and operations of the Company
and customary covenants and agreements to be performed by the Company, including without limitation
customary provisions with respect to indemnification by the Company of the underwriters of such
offering; (b) use its best efforts to cause its legal counsel to render customary opinions to the
underwriters with respect to the Registration Statement; and (c) use its best efforts to cause its
independent public accounting firm to issue customary “cold comfort letters” to the underwriters
with respect to the Registration Statement.

               2.6 Information by Investor. The Investor shall furnish to the Company such
information regarding the Investor as the Company may reasonably request and as shall be required
in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement.
Such information provided by the Investor shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit any material fact required to be stated in the related registration statement or necessary
to make the statements therein with respect to the Investor not misleading.

               2.7 Confidentiality of Notices. In the event the Investor receives any written
notice from the Company regarding the Company’s plans to file a Registration Statement, the
Investor shall treat such notice confidentially and shall not disclose such information to any
person other than as necessary to exercise its rights under this Agreement.

7

 

               2.8 Rule 144 Requirements. After the earliest of (i) the closing of the sale of
securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration Statement, (ii) the registration by the
Company of a class of securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, or (iii) the issuance by the
Company of an offering circular pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act, the Company
agrees to:

                    (a) make and keep current public information about the Company available, as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144; and

                    (b) use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after
it has become subject to such reporting requirements).

               2.9 Termination. All of the Company’s obligations to register Registrable Shares
under Section 2.1 shall terminate upon the earliest of (a) five years after the closing of the
Initial Public Offering or (b) the date on which the Investor holds no Registrable Shares.

          3. Transfers of Rights. This Agreement, and the rights and obligations of the
Investor hereunder, may not be assigned by the Investor.

          4. General.

               4.2 Specific Performance. In addition to any and all other remedies that may be
available at law in the event of any breach of this Agreement, the Investor shall be entitled to
specific performance of the agreements and obligations of the Company hereunder and to such other
injunctive or other equitable relief as may be granted by a court of competent jurisdiction.

               4.3 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Delaware.

               4.4 Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other communications under this

G.2 Closeout

When performance is completed, the COTR and the Customer CO sign the acceptance of the final
product or completion statement of effort for all deliveries/tasks issued, ensuring that all
requirements were met, e.g., all deliverables were received and were technically acceptable,
Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) and Government Furnished Information (GFI) have been
appropriately distributed, etc. The final invoice must include a statement that it is the “final
invoice and that all costs have been accounted for and billed.” The subcontract cannot be closed
until all past performance evaluation reports have been completed and received in accordance with
the Prime CIO-SP2 contract.

G.3 Past Performance Evaluation

Standard past performance evaluations are used for all CIO-SP2 Task Orders to monitor and record
overall performance of each Prime Contractor as included herein as Attachment 4, (NITAAC
Prime Contractor Past Performance Evaluation Report). This form must be used to evaluate overall
task order performance on an annual basis and upon Task Order completion. The COTR completes the
NIH form using our electronic system, obtains concurrence from the CO in writing and forwards it to
the Prime Contractor for comment. Contractor comments received by the customer within 30 days will
be considered in the final evaluation, and must be included in the evaluation form. Once
contractor comments are incorporated, the form is forwarded by the customer to the CIO-SP2 CO, for
entry into the NIH Past Performance Database. In order for the evaluation to be received on a
timely basis, it is required that the form be forwarded through the system to the CIO-SP2 CO no
later than 60 days after completion of each period and completion of the Prime contract Task Order.
The information collected on the Past Performance Database will be available to all Government
agencies and can be used as a source of information for evaluation of contractor past performance
for future opportunities.

Any disagreement between the Prime Contractor and the CO regarding an evaluation should be referred
to an individual in that customer’s agency one level above the CO, whose decision will be final.
The past performance evaluation report shall be submitted electronically. This information will be
linked to the NIH Contractor Performance System (CPS).

G.4 Financial Obligation and Payment

	 	a.	 	A-TEK’s financial obligation shall not exceed the amount funded by this subcontract.
	 
	 	b.	 	Subcontractor may invoice monthly or bi-monthly (days 1-15 and days 16-31). Invoices

be included in the current month invoice to the Government. Invoices will be mailed
and marked as an original and three (3) copies. All invoices must reference the Subcontract
Number and the Task Number provided at B.1. Schedule of Items, and identify costs separately
for each SOW Task.
	 
	 	c.	 	Payment shall be made within five (5) business days after A-TEK has received the
Government’s payment.

H. — SUBCONTRACT PROVISIONS

In addition to the provisions and requirements of the SOW and proposal to DHS, the following
provisions shall be applicable to this Subcontract. The provisions marked with an asterisk (“*”)

Page 13 of 19

 

as well as the General Clauses incorporated herein and provided as Attachment 5 to this
Subcontract are compulsory flow down provisions for Subcontractor’s low-tier subcontractors and
vendors providing materials and services under this Subcontract and/or the prime Task Order.

H.1 Disclosure *

A-TEK and its agents and Subcontractor and its agents agree to keep in confidence and to prevent
the disclosure of, to any person or persons outside their respective organizations or any
unauthorized person or persons within such organization, all technical, non-technical and/ or
business information designated in writing or by an appropriate stamp or legend by the disclosing
party to be proprietary, or orally received and indicated at the time of receipt as being
proprietary, provided, however, that neither party shall be liable for disclosure or use of such
data or information if the same:

	 	(a)	 	Was in public domain at the time it was disclosed;

	 
	 	(b)	 	Was known to the party receiving it at the time of receipt;
	 
	 	(c)	 	Is disclosed inadvertently despite the exercise of the same degree of care as the
recipient party takes to preserve or safeguard its own proprietary information;
	 
	 	(d)	 	Is independently developed by the receiving party; or
	 
	 	(e)	 	Becomes known to the party without breach of this Subcontract by the receiving party;
or is disclosed after 2 years from the date of this Subcontract. The 2-year period shall
survive the termination of this Subcontract.

H.2 Indemnification

Contractor and Subcontractor (each, the “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and hold harmless the
other party, its officers and agents( the “Indemnified Party”) to the proportionate extent they are
responsible from and against any liabilities or harm including but not limited to death and/or
damages incurred by the Indemnified Party as a result of the negligence or gross negligence,
willful act, error or omission of the Indemnifying Party in performing in its obligations
hereunder, or as a result of a breach by the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder. In
no event shall the Subcontractor or its vendors of any tier be eligible in Subcontract, tort,
strict liability, warranty, or otherwise, for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential
damages. The Parties shall promptly notify each other of any claims, which are covered by this
indemnification provision.

H.3 Non-Waiver of Rights

The failure of A-TEK to insist upon strict performance of any of the provisions in the Subcontract
or to exercise any rights or remedies shall not be construed as a waiver of its rights
to assert any of the same or to rely on any such provisions at any time thereafter. The invalidity
in whole or in part of any provision of this Subcontract shall not affect the validity of other
parts hereof.

H.4 Solicitation for Employment

During the term of this Subcontract, neither party shall solicit for employment employees of the
other company who have been directly involved in the activities covered by this Subcontract unless
the respective company’s management has given its prior consent; the employee has voluntarily
terminated from the respective company, and notice of termination is given to the

Page 14 of 19

 

employee or to
the hiring company. This provision shall in no way be construed as to waive any rights and
obligations with respect to employment agreements.

H.5 General Relationship *

Subcontractor agrees that in all matters relating to this Subcontract it shall be acting as an
independent contractor and shall assume and pay all liabilities and perform all obligations,
imposed with respect to the performance of this Subcontract. Subcontractor, its agents and lower
tier providers are solely responsible for the health, safety, and willful act of its employees and
its subcontractors. Subcontractor shall have no right, power, or authority to create any
obligation, expressed or implied, on behalf of A-TEK and/or the Government and shall have no
authority to represent A-TEK in any capacity on its behalf.

H.6 Applicable State Law and Compliance

This Subcontract shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth
of Virginia. Subcontractor agrees to comply with the applicable provisions of any Federal, State
or local law or ordinance and all orders, rules and regulations issued there under.

H.7 Entire Agreement

Upon acceptance of this Subcontract, Subcontractor agrees that the provisions under this
Subcontract, including all documents incorporated herein by reference, shall constitute the entire
agreement between the parties hereto and supersede all prior agreements relating to the subject
matter hereto. This Subcontract may not be modified or terminated orally, and no modification nor
any claimed waiver of any of the provisions hereof shall be binding unless in writing and
signed by the party against whom such modification or waiver is sought to be enforced.

H.8 Conflict of Interest *

It is understood and agreed that the Subcontractor, under the provisions of this Subcontract, or
through the performance of the Statement of Work made a part of this Subcontract, is neither
obligated nor expected to deliver or provide material or perform work, which will place the
Subcontractor in an Organizational Conflict of Interest, which could serve as a basis for excluding
the Subcontractor from supplying products or services to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) or
other Government agencies. Further, during the course of this Subcontract, the Prime Contractor
will not knowingly unilaterally direct the Subcontractor to perform work, in contravention of the
above understanding. It will be the Subcontractor’s responsibility to identify and promptly inform
A-TEK of any situation in which the potential for or the appearance of an Organizational Conflict
of Interest exists or has the potential to materialize.
However, prior to the execution of any Task Order or amendment thereto, if the Contracting Officer
discerns the potential for an Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) insofar as the work to be
performed hereunder is understood to involve the preparation of a complete specification of
materials leading directly, predictably and without delay to a Statement of Work which will be used
in the competitive procurement of a system, the Contracting Officer shall notify the contractor,
and the parties shall mutually take action to resolve any potential OCI. This clause will be
included in any Subcontracts awarded under this contract. This clause does not relieve the
Subcontractor from following up with other contracting offices and their Contracting Officers
regarding potential organizational conflicts involving those procurements.

Page 15 of 19

 

H.9 Conferences

The Prime Contractor may call a conference from time-to-time as deemed necessary to discuss any
phase of performance under the Subcontract. All discussions, problems encountered, solutions
reached, and evaluations made during any conference shall be documented in the next Monthly Program
Status Report for current reporting period. In any case, such reporting shall not, in and of
itself, constitute formal direction to and/or Prime Contractor acceptance of the topics discussed.

H.10 Travel *

The Subcontractor shall comply with the requirements FAR 31.205, the Federal Travel Regulations,
the Prime CIO-SP2 contract, if applicable, and Section 15 of the SOW. It is expressly stipulated
that all travel in conjunction with the Subcontract requires prior approval by the COTR. A-TEK
will not reimburse Subcontractor for travel not properly authorized in advance. A-TEK will apply a
fixed 6% handling fee to all travel costs. Travel expenses over $25 not supported by receipts will
not be reimbursed.

H.11 Key Personnel

Key personnel are those personnel considered to be essential to the performance of the subcontract
as identified by the customer and as stipulated in Section 5 of the SOW. Prior to the replacing of
key personnel, the Subcontractor shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Prime Contractor and
COTR that the qualifications of the prospective replacement personnel are equal to or better than
the qualifications of any personnel being replaced.

H.12 Insurance Schedule *

All costs associated with insurance requirements shall be borne by the Subcontractor and its
subcontractors at no cost to A-TEK or the Government and in accordance with FAR 52.228-7,
“Insurance Liability to Third Persons.” The Subcontractor shall maintain the types of insurance
and coverage listed below in accordance with FAR 28.307-2 Liability:

     H.12.1. Type of Insurance and Minimum Amounts

	 	a.	 	Worker’s Compensation and Employee Liability. Subcontractor and its
subcontractor’s are required to comply with applicable Federal and state worker’s
compensation and Occupational Disease Statutes. If occupational diseases are not
compensable under those statues, they shall be covered under the employer’s liability
section of the insurance policy, except when contract operations are so co-mingled with
a Subcontractor’s commercial operations that it would not be practical to require this

CIO-SP2i - NITAAC Statement of Work (SOW)

Task Order Title — BioWatch Staffing, Communication, and Laboratory Data Integration

As of – 07/19/04

Agency — The Department of Homeland Security (DHS)

1. Task Order Title

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate has initiated the
BioWatch Program as part of its bio-security efforts to enhance our nation’s ability to be prepared
for and to respond to bioterrorism.

2. Background

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) BioSecurity Program has been considering alternate models
of performing and managing certain activities under the BioWatch program. BioWatch laboratory
analysis currently operates mostly with temporary/term employees hired and managed by the Centers
for Disease Control under agreement with DHS. These temporary employees have been fielded in
public health laboratories across the United States. Functionally, each of these groups of
employees reports to a state or local public health agency laboratory manager.

[***]

Building on unprecedented investments in our public health and bio-surveillance infrastructure
since September 11, 2001 and the anthrax events of later that year, President Bush’s
Bio-Surveillance Program Initiative calls on DHS to expand and upgrade the BioWatch Program and
create a system to integrate a broad variety of surveillance data from across the Government. A
key component of this initiative is an expansion and deployment of the next generation of
technologies employed by the BioWatch Program, including enhanced situational awareness data
systems, that will provide an enhanced national bio-surveillance early warning system.

3. Objectives

The objectives of this Task Order are:

(1) To develop the capacity for, and carry out the staffing of, new BioWatch Program locations as
