This Lease Agreement

“LANDLORD”, and THE WORNICK COMPANY, a Texas corporation, as “TENANT”.

 

W
I T N E S S E T H:

 

Section 1.  Certain Definitions.

 

Each of the terms set
forth below shall have the meaning set forth opposite such term:

 

a.                                      
Property
One:  The real property located in Hidalgo County, Texas, described
on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein, including any
improvements located therein.

 

b.                                     
Property
Two:  The real property located in Hidalgo County, Texas, described
on Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein, including any
improvements located therein.

 

c.                                      
“Property”
or “Properties”: Singularly, either Property One or Property Two, and in
the plural form, both Property One and Property Two.

 

d.                                     
Improvements:  The
improvements located on the Properties.

 

e.                                      
Leased
Premises:  The Properties, including the Improvements.

 

f.                                        
CPI:  The Consumer
Price Index for All Urban Consumers, All Items (Base year 1982-1984 = 100)
published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor
Statistics.  If the Bureau of Labor Statistics substantially revises the
manner in which the CPI is determined, an adjustment shall be made in the
revised index which would produce results equivalent, as nearly as possible, to
those which would be obtained hereunder if the CPI were not so revised.  If
the 1982-1984 average shall no longer be used as an Index of 100, such change
shall constitute substantial revision.  If the CPI becomes unavailable to
the public because publication is discontinued, or otherwise, LANDLORD shall
substitute therefor a comparable index based upon changes in the cost of living
or purchasing power of the consumer dollar published by a governmental agency,
major bank, other financial institution, university or recognized financial

 

1

 

publisher. 
Under no circumstances shall a decrease in the CPI ever reduce the monthly rent
or give rise to a credit in favor of TENANT.

 

g.                                     
CPI
Rent Adjustment and CPI Rent Adjustment Dates:  The CPI Rent Adjustment
shall take place on the following dates:

(1)                                 
January 1,
1998—”First Rent Adjustment Date”

(2)                                 
January 1, 200l
—”Second Rent Adjustment Date”

(3)                                 
January 1, 2004
—”Third Rent Adjustment Date”

(4)                                 
January 1, 2007
—”Fourth Rent Adjustment Date”

 

h.                                     
Fair
Market Value or Fair Market Value Purchase Price:  “Fair Market Value” and
“Fair Market Purchase Price” shall be determined by appraisal as set forth in
this paragraph.  In the event that it becomes necessary to determine the
Fair Market Value or Fair Market Value Purchase Price of either Property or
both Properties for any purpose of this Lease, the party required or permitted
to give notice of such required determination shall include in the notice the
name of a person selected to act as an appraiser on its behalf.  Within
ten (10) days after receipt of any such notice, LANDLORD (or TENANT, as the
case may be) shall by notice to TENANT (or LANDLORD, as the case may be)
appoint a second person as an appraiser on its behalf.  The appraisers
thus appointed (each of whom must be a member of the American Institute of Real
Estate Appraisers or any successor organization thereto), within forty-five
(45) days after the date of the notice appointing the first appraiser, shall
proceed to appraise the Property or Properties, as the case may be, to
determine the Fair Market Value or Fair Market Value Purchase Price thereof as
of the relevant date (giving effect to the impact, if any, of inflation or
deflation from the date of their decision to the relevant date); provided,
however, that if only one appraiser shall have been so appointed, or if two
appraisers shall have been so appointed but only one such appraiser shall have
made such determination within fifty (50) days after the making of TENANT’s or
LANDLORD’s request, then the determination of such appraiser shall be final and
binding upon the parties.  If two appraisers shall have been appointed and
shall have made their determinations within the respective requisite periods
set forth above and if the difference between the amounts so determined shall
not exceed ten percent (10%) of the lesser of such amounts, then the Fair
Market Value or Fair Market Value Purchase Price shall be an amount equal to
fifty percent (50%) of the sum of the amounts so determined.  If the
difference between the amounts so determined shall exceed ten percent (10%) of
the lesser of such amounts, then such two appraisers shall have twenty (20)
days to appoint a third appraiser, but if such appraisers fail to do so, then
either party may request the American Arbitration Association or any successor
organization thereto to appoint an appraiser within twenty (20) days of such request,
and

 

2

 

both
parties shall be bound by any appointment so made within such 20-day
period.  If no such appraiser shall have been appointed within such twenty
(20) days or within ninety (90) days of the original request for a
determination of Fair Market Value or Fair Market Value Purchase Price,
whichever is earlier, either LANDLORD or TENANT may apply to any court having
jurisdiction to have appointment made by such court.  Any appraiser
appointed by the American Arbitration Association or by such court shall be
instructed to determine the Fair Market Value or Fair Market Value Purchase
Price within thirty (30) days after appointment of such appraiser.  The
determination of the appraiser which differs most in terms of dollar amount
from the determinations of the other two appraisers shall be excluded, and
fifty percent (50%) of the sum of the remaining two determinations shall be
final and binding upon LANDLORD and TENANT as the Fair Market Value or Fair
Market Value Purchase Price for such interest.  This provision for
determination by appraisal shall be specifically enforceable to the extent such
remedy is available under applicable law, and any determination hereunder shall
be final and binding upon the parties except as otherwise provided by applicable
law.  LANDLORD and TENANT shall each pay the fees and expenses of the
appraiser appointed by it and each shall pay one-half of the fees and expenses
of the third appraiser and one-half of all other costs and expenses incurred in
connection with each appraisal.  Notwithstanding any determination
otherwise by such appraisal, the Fair Market Value and Fair Market Value
Purchase Price shall not be less than the amount of the outstanding principal
and accrued unpaid interest on all indebtedness of LANDLORD for which the
Leased Premises is pledged as collateral to secure payment and performance.

 

Section 2.  Leased Premises.

 

a.                                      
In
consideration of the conditions, covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth
to be kept and performed by TENANT, LANDLORD does hereby lease the Leased
Premises to TENANT, and TENANT does hereby lease the Leased Premises from
LANDLORD.

 

b.                                     
This
Lease and the Leased Premises are subject to all covenants, easements,
restrictions, encumbrances, outstanding mineral interests and governmental
regulatory ordinances to the extent they are valid and in force and effect.

 

Section 3.  Term of Lease.

 

a.                                      
This
Lease shall be for a term commencing on the effective date specified below and
terminating at midnight on December 31, 2010.

 

b.                                     
TENANT
shall remain bound by this Lease in accordance with its terms and nothing shall
entitle TENANT to any abatement,

 

3

 

reduction,
suspension or deferment of the monthly rental or other sums payable by TENANT
hereunder, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease.

 

Section 4.  Rental.

 

TENANT agrees to pay
LANDLORD a rental of Thirty Three Thousand One Hundred Fifteen Dollars
($33,115.00) per calendar month subject to increase as provided herein. 
All rentals shall be due and payable monthly in advance on the first day of
each month without the right of setoff or deduction except as expressly
provided herein.  If this Lease commences on other than the first day of a
month, then the rental for such month shall be prorated based on the number of
days in such month that the Lease was in force.

 

Section 5.  Use of Premises.

 

Subject to the terms and
provisions of this, TENANT may use the Leased Premises for any lawful purposes.

 

Section 6.  Operation of Business.

 

TENANT covenants and
agrees as follows:

 

a.                                      
Not
to permit any illegal or immoral practice to be carried on or committed on the
Leased Premises; or use or allow the Leased Premises to be used for any purpose
that might invalidate or increase the rate of insurance on the Leased Premises.

 

b.                                     
Not
perform any act or carry on any practice on the Leased Premises which may
damage the Leased Premises or which would constitute a nuisance.

 

Section 7.  Care of Leased Premises.

 

a.                                      
TENANT
shall not make any alterations or additions to the Leased Premises without the
prior written consent of LANDLORD, and any such additions and alterations made
by TENANT shall become and remain the property of LANDLORD at the termination
of this Lease, except to the extent that LANDLORD agrees otherwise in the above
required written consent.  All authorized alterations, additions and
improvements which are erected, constructed or installed by TENANT shall comply
with all applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations and other requirements.

 

b.                                     
TENANT
shall keep the Leased Premises in good working order, repair and condition
(which repairs shall include necessary replacements and all expenditures
required to comply

 

4

 

with
all laws now or hereafter enacted, whether the work is structural, involves a
capital expenditure or results in a benefit extending beyond the term of this
Lease).  TENANT is presently occupying the Leased Premises, and agrees to
accept the same “AS IS” without any agreements, representations, understandings
or obligations on the part of LANDLORD to perform any alterations, repairs or
replacement.

 

Section 8.  Fixtures.

 

a.                                      
TENANT
shall be permitted to install and maintain its trade fixtures and equipment on
the Leased Premises, and all such trade fixtures and equipment may be removed
by TENANT, provided, however, that any damage to the Leased Premises caused by
such removal shall be promptly repaired by TENANT.

 

Section 9.  Insurance.

 

a.                                      
At
all times during the term of this Lease, TENANT, as additional rent, shall
purchase and maintain a policy or policies of comprehensive general liability
insurance providing personal injury and property damage liability coverages
with respect to the Leased Premises and the business conducted thereon, with
limits approved by LANDLORD.  Such insurance policy or policies shall name
both TENANT, LANDLORD and LANDLORD’s mortgagee of the Leased Premises as named
insureds.

 

b.                                     
TENANT,
as additional rent, shall purchase and maintain during the term of this Lease
“all risk” casualty insurance policies covering the Improvements, together with
such endorsements as may reasonably be required by LANDLORD from time to time
to fully insure the Improvements on a replacement cost basis.  Such
insurance policy(s) shall name LANDLORD as the insured, and shall provide a
loss payable clause in favor of LANDLORD and any mortgagee of the LANDLORD.

 

c.                                      
If
LANDLORD so requests, TENANT, as additional rent, shall purchase and maintain a
rental value insurance policy covering risk of loss during the first twelve
(12) months of reconstruction necessitated by the occurrence of any of the
hazards described in Section 14, Casualty Damage, in an amount covering at
least twelve months rental.  Such insurance policy shall name LANDLORD as
the insured.  Any loss proceeds collected by LANDLORD pursuant to such
policy shall be used to defray TENANT’s rental obligation to the extent of such
amounts actually received by LANDLORD.

 

d.                                     
Each
of the foregoing policies of insurance shall be in form and written by insurers
approved by LANDLORD, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, and
shall provide that the insurers will not cancel or change such insurance
without first

 

5

 

giving
LANDLORD, TENANT and LANDLORD’s mortgagee not less than ten (10) days prior
written notice.  LANDLORD and LANDLORD’s mortgagee shall be furnished a
duplicate original of all such insurance policies.

 

e.                                      
If
TENANT fails to timely provide the liability, casualty or the rental value
insurance specified in this Section 9, then LANDLORD may elect to provide
such insurance and, in such event, TENANT shall pay to LANDLORD, as additional
rent, the cost of such insurance within ten (10) days after receipt of a
statement of such costs from LANDLORD.

 

Section 10.  Indemnification.

 

TENANT covenants and
agrees to protect, indemnify and save LANDLORD and LANDLORD’s heirs, legal
representatives and assigns harmless from all claims for damages and/or
injuries to persons or property arising from injury to persons or property on
or adjacent to the Leased Premises, including all costs, attorney’s fees,
expenses and liabilities incurred in connection with any such claim or action,
without limit and without regard to the cause or causes thereof or the
negligence of LANDLORD, its agents, employees or any other person or entity,
whether such negligence be sole, joint or concurrent, active or passive, or
because of any defect in, on or upon the Leased Premises.

 

Section 11.  Mutual Waiver of Subrogation.

 

LANDLORD hereby waives
any right of recovery that LANDLORD may have against TENANT for the loss of or
damage to any of LANDLORD’S property resulting from any cause whatsoever to the
extent that collection for such loss or damage is made by LANDLORD under any
insurance policy or policies in effect at the time such loss or damage occurs;
and TENANT hereby waives any right of recovery that TENANT may have against
LANDLORD for the loss of or damage to any of TENANT’S property resulting from
any cause whatsoever to the extent that collection for such loss or damage is
made by TENANT under any insurance policy or policies in effect at the time of
such loss or damage.  The mutual waivers set forth in this paragraph apply
only to the extent they are permitted by law, the loss or damage is covered by
insurance proceeds, and such waivers do not adversely affect any insurance
coverage.

 

Section 12.  Assignment, Mortgage and
Subleasing.

 

a.                                      
Assignment
by Tenant.  TENANT shall not, whether by operation of law or
otherwise, assign this Lease, or any part thereof, without the prior written
approval of LANDLORD in each instance.

 

6

 

b.                                     
Subleases.  TENANT shall
not sublease all or any part of the Leased Premises without prior written approval
of LANDLORD.

 

c.                                      
Mortgages.  TENANT shall
not mortgage all or any part of TENANT’S leasehold estate without prior written
approval of LANDLORD.

 

d.                                     
Approvals
by Landlord.  LANDLORD agrees not to unreasonably withhold its
consent to a proposed assignment, sublease or mortgage of the Leased
Premises.  The approval by LANDLORD of any of the acts specified in this
Section shall not relieve TENANT, or TENANT’s authorized assignee,
transferee or subtenant from liability under this Lease.

 

Section 13.  Net Lease.

 

TENANT agrees that this
Lease is to be a “net lease” and that LANDLORD is to receive all rentals and
other sums required to be paid by TENANT absolutely free from any charges,
assessments, taxes, expenses or deductions of any kind.

 

Section 14.  Casualty Damage.

 

a.                                      
All
proceeds payable by reason of any loss or damage to the Leased Premises, or any
portion thereof, and insured under any policy of insurance required by this
Lease shall be paid to LANDLORD and held by LANDLORD in trust and shall be made
available for reconstruction or repair, as the case may be, of any damage to or
destruction of the Leased Premises, or any portion thereof, and shall be paid
out by LANDLORD from time to time for the reasonable cost of such
reconstruction or repair.  Any excess proceeds of insurance remaining
after the completion of the restoration or reconstruction of the Leased
Premises shall be retained by LANDLORD free and clear upon completion of any
such repair and restoration except as otherwise specifically provided below in
this Section.  In the event neither LANDLORD nor TENANT is required or
elects to repair and restore, all such insurance proceeds shall be retained by
LANDLORD.  All salvage resulting from any risk covered by insurance shall
belong to LANDLORD except that any salvage relating to additions paid for by
TENANT or to TENANT’s personal property shall belong to TENANT.

 

b.

 

(1)                                 
If
during the term of this Lease, Property One and/or Property Two is totally or
partially destroyed from a risk covered by the insurance described in
Section 9 and if such damaged Property is rendered unsuitable for TENANT’s
use, TENANT shall have the option, by giving notice to LANDLORD within sixty
(60) days following the date of such

 

7

 

destruction, to (i) restore such
damaged Property to substantially the same condition as existed immediately
before the damage or destruction, or (ii) offer to acquire such damaged
Property from LANDLORD for a purchase price equal to the Fair Market Value
Purchase Price of such Property immediately prior to such damage or
destruction.  Such damage or destruction shall not terminate this Lease.

 

(2)                                 
If
during the term of this Lease, Property One and/or Property Two is partially
destroyed from a risk covered by the insurance described in Section 9, but
such damaged Property is not thereby rendered unsuitable for TENANT’s use,
TENANT shall restore such damaged Property to substantially the same condition
as existed immediately before the damage or destruction.  Such damage or
destruction shall not terminate this Lease; provided, however, if TENANT cannot
within a reasonable time obtain all necessary governmental approvals, including
building permits, licenses, conditional use permits and any certificates of
need, after diligent efforts to do so, in order to be able to perform all
required repair and restoration work and to operate such damaged Property for
TENANT’s use in substantially the same manner as immediately prior to such
damage or destruction, TENANT may offer to acquire such damaged Property for a
purchase price equal to the Fair Market Value Purchase Price of such damaged
Property immediately prior to such damage or destruction.

 

(3)                                 
If
the cost of the repair or restoration to a damaged Property exceeds the amount
of insurance proceeds received by LANDLORD, TENANT shall be obligated to
contribute any excess amount needed to restore the such damaged Property. 
Such amount shall be paid by TENANT to LANDLORD to be held in trust together
with any other insurance proceeds for application to the cost of repair and restoration.

 

(4)                                 
In
the event LANDLORD does not accept TENANT’s offer to so purchase such damaged
Property within thirty (30) days after the date of such offer, TENANT may
either (a) withdraw its offer to purchase such damaged Property and proceed to
restore such damaged Property to substantially the same condition as existed
immediately before the damage or destruction, or (b) terminate this Lease as to
such damaged Property and LANDLORD shall retain the insurance proceeds, and TENANT
shall pay to LANDLORD, on demand, the amount of any deductible or uninsured
loss arising in connection therewith.

 

(5)                                 
In
the event LANDLORD accepts TENANT’s offer to purchase such damaged Property,
this Lease shall terminate

 

8

 

as to such damaged Property upon
payment of the purchase price and LANDLORD shall remit to TENANT all insurance
proceeds for such damaged Property being held in trust by LANDLORD or assign to
TENANT all rights to receive the insurance proceeds if not already paid to
LANDLORD.

 

c.                                      
If
during the term of this Lease, either Property One and/or Property Two is
totally or materially destroyed from a risk not covered by the insurance
described in Section 9, whether or not such damage or destruction renders
such damaged Property unsuitable for TENANT’S use, TENANT shall either (i)
restore such damaged Property to substantially the same condition it was in
immediately before such damage or destruction and such damage or destruction
shall not terminate this Lease or (ii) offer to acquire the damaged Property at
its Fair Market Value Purchase Price immediately prior to such damage or
destruction.

 

d.                                     
All
insurance proceeds payable by reason of any loss of or damage to TENANT’s
personal property shall be paid to TENANT and TENANT shall use such insurance
proceeds in trust to pay the cost of repairing or replacing TENANT’s personal
property.

 

e.                                      
If
TENANT is required or elects to restore the Property or Properties as provided
in this section, TENANT shall also restore all alterations and improvements
made by TENANT, as well as TENANT’s personal property.

 

f.                                        
This
Lease shall remain in full force and effect and TENANT’s obligation to make
rental payments and to pay all other charges required by this Lease shall
remain unabated during any period required for repair and restoration, except
that the proceeds of rental insurance, if any, paid to LANDLORD shall
constitute payment of such amounts by TENANT.

 

g.                                     
Any
termination of this Lease to a damaged Property pursuant to this
Section shall cause any right of first refusal granted to LANDLORD under
this Lease to be terminated and to be without further force or effect as to the
damaged Property.

 

h.                                     
LANDLORD
hereby waives any statutory or common law rights of termination which may arise
by reason of any damage or destruction of the Properties or any part thereof.

 

i.                                         
If
LANDLORD’S mortgagees do not allow the insurance proceeds to be used for
restoration, then TENANT’s sole remedy shall be to terminate this Lease as to
such damaged Property.

 

Section 15.  Risk of Loss.

 

During the term of this
Lease, the risk of loss or of decrease in the enjoyment and beneficial use of
the Leased

 

9

 

Premises in consequence of the damage or destruction
thereof by fire, the elements, casualties, thefts, riots, wars or otherwise, is
assumed by TENANT and, LANDLORD shall in no event be answerable or accountable
therefor nor shall any of the events mentioned in this Section entitle
TENANT to any abatement of monthly rental except as specified provided in this
Lease.

 

Section 16.  Default of Tenant.

 

1.                                      
Events
of Default.  The following events shall be deemed to be events
of default by TENANT under this Lease:

 

a.                                      
If TENANT shall fail to pay any
installment of rent, additional rent or other sum of money payable hereunder
when due and the continuance of such failure for ten (10) days following
written notice hereof from LANDLORD to TENANT.

 

b.                                     
If TENANT shall fail to comply
with any term, provision, or covenant of this Lease, other than the payment of
rent, additional rent or other sum of money to LANDLORD, and shall not cure or
correct such failure within a reasonable time but, in no event, more than
thirty (30) days following notice; provided, however, if the nature of the
TENANT’s failure is such that more time is reasonably required in order to
cure, TENANT shall not be in default if TENANT commences to cure within such
time period and thereafter with reasonable diligence seeks to cure such failure
to completion.

 

c.                                      
If a petition in bankruptcy or
insolvency or for reorganization or for the appointment of a receiver or
trustee of all or a portion of the property of TENANT shall be filed against
TENANT in any court, pursuant to any statute either of the United States or of
any state, and if, within thirty (30) days thereafter, TENANT fails to secure a
discharge thereof, or if TENANT shall voluntarily file any such petition, or
make an assignment for the benefit of creditors.

 

d.                                     
If TENANT’s leasehold estate
shall be taken under writ of execution or other process of law in any action
against TENANT.

 

e.                                      
If TENANT shall abandon or
vacate the Leased Premises.

 

2.                                      
Remedies.  If an event of
default shall have occurred, LANDLORD shall have the right, without further
notice or demand of any kind to TENANT or any other party, then or at any time
thereafter, to the extent permitted by law, to pursue any one or

 

10

 

more
of the following remedies in addition to all other rights or remedies provided
herein or at law or in equity.

 

a.                                      
LANDLORD may terminate this
Lease and forthwith repossess the Leased Premises and be entitled to recover
forthwith as damages a sum of money equal to the total of (i) the reasonable
cost of recovering the Leased Premises, (ii) the unpaid rent and additional
rent earned at the time of termination, the cost of curing TENANT’s other
defaults plus interest thereon from the due date at the rate herein provided,
and (iii) an amount equal to the then present value of the balance of the rent
and additional rent for the remainder of the term, less the then present value
of the fair rental value of the Leased Premises for the remainder of the
term.  The amounts computed in accordance with the foregoing subclause
(iii) shall both be discounted in accordance with accepted financial practice
at the rate of four percent (4%) per annum to determine present value.

 

b.                                     
LANDLORD may elect to terminate
TENANT’s right of possession without terminating this Lease, in which event
TENANT agrees to surrender possession and vacate the Leased Premises
immediately and deliver possession to LANDLORD, and TENANT hereby grants
LANDLORD full and free license to enter in and upon the Leased Premises or any
part thereof and to expel or remove TENANT or any other person or party who may
be occupying or within the Leased Premises or any part thereof and remove any
and all property therefrom.  Such property may be removed by LANDLORD and
stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of
TENANT without terminating this Lease or releasing TENANT in whole or in part
from TENANT’s obligations to pay rent, additional rent and other charges and
perform any of the covenants, conditions and agreements to be performed by
TENANT as provided in this Lease, and without LANDLORD being deemed in any
manner guilty of trespass, eviction, forcible entry or detainer, and without
relinquishing LANDLORD’S rights as herein provided.

 

c.                                      
If LANDLORD re-enters the Leased
Premises without terminating this Lease, then LANDLORD may relet the Leased
Premises or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of LANDLORD or
otherwise, for a term which may at LANDLORD’S option be less than or exceed the
period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term and upon
such other terms and conditions as LANDLORD may deem advisable.  TENANT
shall pay LANDLORD for each month of the period which would otherwise have
constituted the balance of the term, any deficiency between (i) the sum of one
monthly installment of rent and other costs that would have been payable for
the month in question but for such re-entry or

 

11

 

termination, and (ii) the net
amount, if any, of the rents collected on account of the lease or leases of the
Leased Premises for each month of the period which would otherwise have
constituted the balance of the term.  The failure of LANDLORD to relet the
Leased Premises or any part or parts thereof shall not release or affect
TENANT’s liability for damages; provided, however, that LANDLORD shall use
reasonable efforts to relet the Leased Premises.  There shall be added to
the said deficiency such expenses as LANDLORD may reasonably incur in
connection with any reletting (such as court costs, attorney’s fees, brokerage
costs and expenses for putting and keeping the Leased Premises in good order or
for preparing the same for reletting).  Any deficiency shall be paid in
monthly installments by TENANT on the rent day specified in this Lease, and any
suit brought to collect the amount of the deficiency for any month shall not
prejudice in any way the rights of LANDLORD to collect the deficiency for any
subsequent month by a similar proceeding.  No such re-entry or taking
possession of the Leased Premises by LANDLORD shall be construed as an election
on its part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such termination
is given to TENANT or unless the termination thereof is decreed by a court of
competent jurisdiction.

 

Any amount collected by
LANDLORD from subsequent Tenants for any rental period in excess of that
provided for in this Lease for such period shall be credited to TENANT in
reduction of TENANT’s liability for any rental period in which the amount
collected by LANDLORD shall be less than that provided for by this Lease; but
TENANT shall only be entitled to receive any such excess rentals at the end of
the term and without interest.  An election to re-enter the Leased Premises
(without terminating this Lease) and the reletting or not reletting of the
Leased Premises shall not thereafter prevent LANDLORD from electing to
terminate this Lease for such previous breach.

 

In the event it is
necessary for LANDLORD to bring suit for such rental payments or other charges
as they accrue or in order to collect any damages, LANDLORD shall have the
right to allow such rental or deficiencies to accumulate and to bring an action
on several or all of the deficiencies at one time.  Any such suit shall
not prejudice in any way the right of LANDLORD to bring a similar action for
subsequent rental or damage deficiencies.

 

Section 17.  Condemnation.

 

a.

 

(1)                                 
“Condemnation”
means (i) the exercise of any governmental power, whether by legal proceedings
or

 

12

 

(2)                                 
otherwise,
by a Condemnor or (ii) a voluntary [  ] transfer by LANDLORD to any
Condemner, either [  ] of Condemnation or while legal proceedings for
[  ] are pending.

 

(3)                                 
“Date
of Taking” means the date the Condemnor has the right to possession of the
property being condemned.

 

(4)                                 
“Award”
means all compensation, sums or anything of value awarded, paid or received on
a total or partial Condemnation.

 

(5)                                 
“Condemnor”
means any public or quasi-public authority, or private corporation or
individual, having the power of Condemnation.

 

b.                                     
If
during the term of this Lease there is any taking of all or any part of the
Leased Premises or any interest in this Lease by Condemnation, the rights and
obligations of the parties shall be determined by this Section.

 

c.                                      
If
there is any taking of all of Property One and/or Property Two by Condemnation
or if a portion of such condemned Property is taken so that such condemned
Property is rendered unfit for TENANT’s use, then this Lease shall terminate as
to such condemned Property on the Date of Taking.

 

d.                                     
If
there is a taking of a portion of Property One or Property Two by Condemnation,
this Lease shall remain in effect if such condemned Property is not thereby
rendered unsuitable for TENANT’s use.  If, however, such condemned
Property is thereby rendered unsuitable for TENANT’s use, TENANT shall have the
right (a) to restore such condemned Property, to the extent possible, to
substantially the same condition as existed immediately before the partial
taking and, subject to the rights of LANDLORD’s mortgagee, LANDLORD shall make
the condemnation award available to TENANT for such restoration, or (b) to
offer to acquire such condemned Property from LANDLORD for a purchase price
equal to the Fair Market Value Purchase Price of such condemned Property
immediately prior to such partial taking, in which event this Lease shall
terminate as to such condemned Property upon payment of the purchase
price.  TENANT shall exercise its option by giving LANDLORD notice thereof
within (60) days after TENANT receives notice of the taking.  In the event
LANDLORD does not accept TENANT’s offer to so acquire such condemned Property
within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice described in the preceding
sentence, TENANT may either (a) withdraw its offer to acquire such condemned
Property and proceed to restore such condemned Property to the extent possible,
to substantially the same condition as existed immediately before the partial
taking,

 

13

 

or (b)
terminate this Lease as to the condemned Property by written notice.

 

e.                                      
If
there is a partial taking of Property One and/or Property Two and this Lease
remains in full force and effect as to such condemned Property or Properties,
TENANT shall accomplish all necessary restoration and, subject to the rights of
LANDLORD’s mortgagee, LANDLORD shall make the condemnation award for the
condemned Property available to TENANT for such restoration.

 

f.                                        
In
the event LANDLORD accepts TENANT’S offer to purchase such condemned Property,
the entire Award shall belong to TENANT and LANDLORD agrees to assign to TENANT
all of its rights thereto at closing of the purchase.  In any other event,
the entire Award shall belong to and be paid to LANDLORD, except that, if this
Lease is terminated as to such condemned Property, and subject to the rights of
the LANDLORD’s mortgagee and as otherwise provided herein, TENANT shall be entitled
to receive from the Award a sum attributable to TENANT’s personal property and
any reasonable removal and relocation costs if specifically included in the
Award.

 

If TENANT is required or
elects to restore such condemned Property, LANDLORD agrees that, subject to the
rights of the LANDLORD’S mortgagees, its portion of the Award shall be used for
such restoration and it shall hold such portion of the Award in trust, for
application to the cost of the restoration.  If the LANDLORD’S mortgagees
do not allow the Award to be used for restoration, then TENANT’s sole remedy
shall be to terminate this Lease as to such condemned Property.

 

Section 18.  Taxes and Assessments.

 

a.                                      
TENANT
shall pay to LANDLORD, as additional rent, within ten (10) days after receipt
of a statement, the amount of all taxes and assessments levied and assessed by
any lawful authority against the Leased Premises during the term of this Lease,
including, but not limited to, taxes and assessments levied and assessed for
1995.  The amount of additional rent to be paid to LANDLORD by TENANT
because of such taxes and assessment shall be prorated between LANDLORD and
TENANT for the last year of the term of this Lease based upon the number of
days in such year that this Lease was in force.

 

b.                                     
TENANT
shall pay all taxes and assessments levied and assessed on the value of its
personal property prior to their becoming delinquent.

 

14

 

Section 19.  Tenant’s Compliance with Laws and
Indemnifications.

 

a.                                      
TENANT
shall, at its expense, comply with all laws, rules, orders, ordinances,
directions, regulations and requirements of federal, state, county and
municipal authorities pertaining to TENANT’s use of the Leased Premises
regardless of when they become effective, including, without limitation, the
Americans with Disabilities Act, all applicable federal, state and local laws,
regulations or ordinances pertaining to air and water quality, hazardous
materials (as hereinafter defined), waste, disposal, air emissions and other
environmental, zoning and land use matters, and with any directive or order of
any public officer or officers, pursuant to law, which shall impose any duty
upon TENANT with respect to the use or occupation of the Leased Premises.

 

b.                                     
TENANT
shall not cause or knowingly permit any Hazardous Material to be brought upon,
kept or used in or about the Leased Premises by TENANT, its employees, invitees
or guests without the prior written consent of LANDLORD.

 

c.                                      
In addition to, and
without limitation on any general indemnity obligations of TENANT under this
Lease, TENANT specifically agrees that it shall indemnify, defend and hold
LANDLORD harmless from any and all claims, judgements, damages, penalties,
fines, costs, liabilities or losses (including, without limitation, diminution
in value of the Leased Premises, damages for the loss or restriction on use of
rentable or usable space or of any amenity of the Leased Premises, and sums
paid in settlement of claims, attorney’s fees, consultant fees and expert fees)
which arise during or after the term as a result of any breach by TENANT of its
obligations under this Section or any contamination of the Leased Premises
resulting from the presence of Hazardous Materials on or about the Leased
Premises caused or permitted by TENANT.  This indemnification of LANDLORD
by TENANT includes, without limitation, costs incurred in connection with any
investigation of site conditions, and any cleanup, remedial, removal or
restoration work required by any federal, state, or local governmental agency
or political subdivision.  Without limiting the foregoing, if the presence
of any Hazardous Material on the Leased Premises caused or permitted by TENANT
results in any contamination of the Leased Premises or surrounding area, TENANT
shall promptly take all actions at its sole expense as are necessary to return
such property to the condition existing prior to the introduction of any such
Hazardous Material; provided, however, that LANDLORD’s approval of such actions
shall first be obtained.  TENANT further agrees to defend LANDLORD, its
agents, employees, and assigns in any administrative or judicial proceeding
brought by private individuals or governmental entities seeking recovery of
damages for personal injury or property damage, or recovery of civil penalties
or fines out of,

 

15

 

connected
with, or relating to any breach by TENANT of its obligations under this
Section or any contamination of the Leased Premises resulting from the
presence of Hazardous Materials on or about the Leased Premises caused or
permitted by TENANT.  The foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration
or earlier termination of this Lease.

 

As used herein, the term
“Hazardous Material” or “Hazardous Materials” means any pollutant, toxic
substance, hazardous waste, hazardous material, hazardous substance, or oil as
defined in or pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as
amended, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act, as amended, or all other federal, state or local environmental law,
regulation, ordinance, rule, or bylaw, whether existing as of the date hereof,
previously enforced or subsequently enacted.

 

Section 20.  CPI Rent Adjustments.

 

Commencing with the First
Rent Adjustment Date, the monthly rent shall be adjusted by the percentage
increase, if any, in the CPI from January 1, 1996.  Each subsequent
CPI rental adjustment shall be by reference to the CPI in effect at the time of
the prior CPI Rent Adjustment Date.  Pending determination of the actual
adjustment, TENANT shall pay an estimated adjusted rental, as reasonably
determined by LANDLORD by reference to the then available CPI
information.  Upon notification of the actual adjustment after the
publication of the required information, any overpayment shall be credited
against the next installment of rent due, and any underpayment shall be
immediately due and payable by TENANT.  LANDLORD’s failure to request
payment of an estimated or actual rent adjustment shall not constitute a waiver
of the right to any adjustment provided for in this Lease or in this
Section.  The CPI Rent Adjustments are:

 

a.                                      
First
CPI Rent Adjustment.  The monthly rental payable for January 1, 1998
to December 31, 2000 (the “First Rent Adjustment Date”) shall be the
greater of the following: (i) $33,115, or (ii) the sum of $33,115 plus the
amount of rent determined by the percentage increase in the CPI for the period
from January 1, 1996 to December 31, 1997 multiplied by $33,115
(“First Adjusted Rental Period”).

 

b.                                     
Second
CPI Rent Adjustment.  The monthly rental payable for January 1, 2001
to December 31, 2003, shall be the greater of the following: (1) the
monthly rent payable during the First Adjusted Rental Period or (ii) the amount
of rent determined by the percentage increase in the CPI from January 1,
1998 to December 30, 2000 multiplied by the monthly rent paid during the
First Adjusted Rental Period (“Second Adjusted Rental Period”).

 

16

 

c.                                      
The
monthly rental payable for January 1, 2004 to December 31, 2006,
shall be the greater of the following: (i) the monthly rent payable during the
Second Adjusted Rental Period, or (ii) the amount of rent determined by the
percentage increase in the CPI from January 1, 2001 to December 30,
2003 multiplied by the monthly rent paid during the Second Adjusted Rental
Period (“Third Adjusted Rental Period”).

 

d.                                     
The
monthly rental payable for January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2010,
shall be the greater of the following: (i) the monthly rent payable during the
Third Adjusted Rental Period, or (ii) the amount of rent determined by the
percentage increase in the CPI from January 1, 2004 to January 1,
2006 multiplied by the monthly rent paid during the Third Adjusted Rental Period
(“Fourth Adjusted Rental Period”).

 

Section 21.  Waiver.

 

For the purposes of
determining the rights of LANDLORD and TENANT hereunder, it is agreed that no
act or omission of LANDLORD shall be construed or held to be a waiver of its
rights hereunder, except insofar as LANDLORD may specifically waive a
particular right in writing.  Such a written waiver by LANDLORD shall
apply only to the default existing at the time of its execution and described
therein and shall not be deemed or held to be a waiver of a subsequent default
of the same or any other nature.  A written consent given by LANDLORD
pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Lease shall never be deemed or
held to be consent to a subsequent performance of the same or any other act. 
LANDLORD’s receipt of monies from TENANT under the terms of this Lease shall
never be deemed or held to be a waiver of the rights of LANDLORD hereunder.

 

Section 22.  Construction of Lease.

 

a.                                      
In
the event any provision of this Lease shall be held to be invalid or
unenforceable, such holding shall not be deemed to affect the validity and
enforceability of the remainder of the Lease, nor of the same provision as
applied to other persons or circumstances.  This Lease shall be construed
with the express intention of the parties to it that it shall be valid and
enforceable in every respect to the extent permitted by law.

 

b.                                     
This
Lease sets forth all the covenants, promises, agreements, conditions and
understandings between LANDLORD and TENANT concerning the Leased Premises and
there are no covenants, promises, agreements, conditions or understandings,
either oral or written, between them other than are herein set forth. 
Except as herein otherwise provided, no subsequent alteration, amendment,
change or addition to this Lease shall be binding upon LANDLORD or TENANT
unless reduced to writing and signed by them.

 

17

 

c.                                      
Time
is of the essence.

 

Section 23.  Prohibition Against Liens.

 

TENANT shall have no
power or authority, expressed or implied, to do, and TENANT is hereby
prohibited from doing, any act or to make any contract that may create a Lien
upon, or in any manner to bind, the interest or estate of LANDLORD in the
Leased Premises.  Any approval by LANDLORD to TENANT to do any work upon
the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, shall never be construed to
constitute an express or implied agency in TENANT to bind or encumber the
interest or estate of LANDLORD in any way whatsoever.  Any relationship
between the parties hereto other than that of landlord and tenant is hereby
expressly negated.  TENANT covenants and agrees that TENANT will pay or
cause to be paid all costs, charges, and expenses that become due and payable
on account of work on, at, to, from, or about the Leased Premises authorized by
TENANT, and will not permit any valid and enforceable lien to be established
against LANDLORD’s interest in the Leased Premises on account of such work. 
TENANT shall protect, indemnify and hold LANDLORD harmless from any costs,
claims, causes of action or expenses including, without limitation, attorney’s
fees and court costs, arising from or in any manner pertaining to the approved
construction or installation of any alterations, additions or improvements to
the Leased Premises and/or any claim for unpaid bills, or any claim of or
creation of a Lien upon, or in any manner pertaining to the interest or estate
of LANDLORD in the Leased Premises.

 

Section 24.  Holding Over and Successors.

 

a.                                      
Holding
Over by Tenant.  TENANT shall pay LANDLORD the monthly rental,
additional rent and other charges prorated on a per diem basis for each day
TENANT shall retain possession of the Leased Premises or any part thereof after
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, together with all damages
sustained by LANDLORD on account thereof.  This provision shall not serve
as permission for TENANT to hold over nor serve to extend the term (although
tenant shall remain a tenant at sufferance bound to comply with all provisions
of the Lease until TENANT vacates the Leased Premises.) LANDLORD shall have the
right, at any time after expiration or earlier termination of this Lease or TENANT’s
right to possession, to reenter and possess the Leased Premises and remove all
property and persons therefrom, and LANDLORD shall have such other remedies for
holdover as may be available to LANDLORD under other provisions of this Lease
or applicable laws.

 

b.                                     
Successors.  All rights and
liabilities herein given, or imposed upon, the respective parties shall extend
and bind the several respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and

 

18

 

assigns
of the said parties subject to the limitations on assignment and subleasing
contained herein.

 

Section 25.  Miscellaneous.

 

1.                                      
Notices.  Any notice,
request, demand, or other communication which, under the terms of this Lease or
under any statute or other law, must or may be given or made by the parties
hereto, shall be in writing, shall be sent by and deemed received when
deposited in the United States mails, registered or certified mail, postage
prepaid, return receipt requested, or if otherwise delivered or sent, shall be

8.                                      
Unavoidable
Default or Delay.  In the event either party to this Lease shall be

or regulations, riot, insurrection, war, relocation of electrical generating,
distribution or service facilities or the inability of any company providing
utilities to the Building or other cause not within the reasonable control of
such party (expressly except the financial inability of such party to perform
its obligations hereunder), then the performance of such acts shall be excused
for the period of delay and the period for performance of any such act shall be
extended for a period equivalent to the period of such delay.

 

9.                                      
Landlord’s
Performance for the Account of Tenant.  If, after reasonable notice
TENANT fails to perform any one or more of its obligations hereunder, in
addition to the other rights of LANDLORD hereunder, LANDLORD shall have the
right but not the obligation to perform all or any part of such obligations of
TENANT.  Upon receipt of a demand therefor from LANDLORD, TENANT shall
reimburse LANDLORD for (i) the cost to LANDLORD of performing such obligations
plus (ii) interest thereon as hereinafter provided.

 

10.                                
Landlord’s
Failure to Perform.  If LANDLORD fails to perform any of its obligations
under this Lease, LANDLORD shall

 

20

 

not be
in default hereunder and TENANT shall not have any rights or remedies growing
out of such failure unless TENANT gives LANDLORD written notice thereof setting
forth in reasonable detail the nature and extent of such failure and such
failure by LANDLORD is not cured within the thirty (30) day period following
delivery of such notice, or if the nature of LANDLORD’s default is such that
more time is reasonably required in order to cure, such period shall be
extended for the period reasonably required therefor if LANDLORD commences
curing such failure within such thirty (30) day period and continues the curing
thereof with reasonable diligence until completion.

 

11.                                
Interest.  All
installments of rent, additional rent and all other payments of any character
required to be paid to LANDLORD by TENANT under the terms of this Lease shall,
following the due date thereof, bear interest at either the rate of Ten percent
(10%) per annum or the maximum non-usurious rate allowed by law, whichever is
the lesser rate.

 

12.                                
Estoppel
Certificate.  TENANT shall from time to time, within ten (10)
days after written request from LANDLORD, execute, acknowledge and deliver a
statement: (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and
effect (or if this Lease is claimed not to be in force and effect, specifying
the ground therefor) and the dates to which the rent and other charges
hereunder have been paid, (ii) acknowledging that there are not, to TENANT’s knowledge,
any uncured defaults on the part of LANDLORD hereunder (or specifying such
defaults if any are claimed), and (iii) certifying such other matters as
LANDLORD may reasonably request, or as may be requested by LANDLORD’s current
or prospective Lenders, insurance carriers, auditors, and prospective
purchasers.  Any such statement may be relied upon by any such
parties.  If TENANT shall fail to execute and return such statement within
the time required herein, TENANT shall be deemed to have agreed with the
matters set forth thereon.

 

Section 26.  Right of First Refusal.

 

If at any time during the
term of this Lease, LANDLORD shall desire to sell Property One and/or Property
Two, TENANT shall have the right of first refusal to purchase such Property or
Properties, as follows:

 

a.                                      
LANDLORD
shall furnish to TENANT three (3) copies of a contract of sale (“Contract”)
between LANDLORD and TENANT signed by LANDLORD specifying the terms and
conditions upon which he will sell such Property or Properties to TENANT. 
If TENANT shall fail to exercise this Right of First Refusal by signing and
returning two (2) copies of the Contract to LANDLORD together with any
down-payment or earnest money deposit therein provided within ten (10) days
after receipt of the Contract, then LANDLORD

 

21

 

shall
have the right to sell such
Property or Properties to any other party upon terms substantially equal to or
better than set forth in the Contract.  If LANDLORD shall sell such
Property or Properties upon terms equal to or better than those offered to
TENANT, this Right of First Refusal shall terminate; provided, however, if such
a sale is not consummated, then this Right of First Refusal shall remain in
force and effect.

 

b.                                     
The
following transfers shall be excluded from TENANT’s Right of First Refusal:

 

1.                                      
The
sale of LANDLORD’S estate in the Leased Premises, or any portion thereof, at a
foreclosure of any Deed of Trust or Mortgage covering the Leased Premises or by
a Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure;

 

2.                                      
A
transfer of LANDLORD’s estate in the Leased Premises, or any portion thereof,
or any part thereof, to any corporation, partnership, trust or other entity
which is controlled wholly or in part by LANDLORD or members of LANDLORD’s
family;

 

3.                                      
A
transfer by gift, devise or descent;

 

TENANT’s Right of First Refusal shall, however, remain
in effect after any such transfer specified in subparagraphs 2. and 3. of
paragraph b of this Section and be binding on the transferee in any such
transaction.

 

Section 27.  Purchase of the Property in the Event of
Damage or Condemnation.

 

In the event LANDLORD
accepts an offer from TENANT to purchase Property One and/or Property Two at
the Fair Market Value or Fair Market Value Purchase Price under the conditions
and terms of sections 14 or 17 of this Lease, then such sale shall be on the
terms and conditions as set forth in this paragraph.  Closing of such sale
shall be on or before thirty (30) days from the date that the Fair Market Value
Purchase Price is determined.  At Closing, LANDLORD shall deliver to
TENANT a Special Warranty Deed, subject to all matters of record, but free and
clear of any mortgage lien, and TENANT shall deliver to LANDLORD the purchase
price payable in cash.  Any real estate transfer taxes, if any, to the
extent permitted by law, shall be paid by TENANT.

 

22

 

Section 28.  Composite Lease.

 

This Lease, although
executed and delivered as a composite instrument for convenience, constitutes a
separate lease and agreement between LANDLORD and TENANT with respect to
Property One and Property Two, and all provision hereof shall be applicable
separately to each Property, with the same effect as if a separate lease with
respect thereto had been executed and delivered by LANDLORD and TENANT. 
If any such separate lease shall be terminated or extended pursuant to any
provision hereof, such termination or extension shall have no effect upon the
remaining lease.  Upon request of LANDLORD or TENANT, a separate lease of
either Property, in the same form as this Lease except for such mutually
satisfactory modifications as shall be required by the fact that such lease
relates only to one Property, will be executed and delivered by LANDLORD and
TENANT.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF,
LANDLORD and TENANT have executed this Lease Agreement to be effective as of
November 27, 1995.

A.    The following wording concerning Pallet HT Certification requirements
which includes language to accommodate “hardwood and mixed (hardwood/coniferous
wood) pallet” concerns, is hereby incorporated into subject solicitation:

 

“All wooden pallets and wood containers produced
entirely or in part of non-manufactured softwood species shall be constructed
from Heat Treated (HT to 56 degrees Centigrade for 30 minutes) coniferous
material and certified accordingly by an accredited agency recognized by the
American Lumber Standard Committee,
Incorporated (ALSC) in accordance with the latest revision of ALSC
Non-manufactured Wood Packing Policy, and Non-manufactured Wood Packing
Enforcement Regulations (see URL:
http://www.alsc.org/.) All wooden pallets and containers produced
entirely of non-manufactured hardwood species shall be identified by a
permanent marking of “NC-US,” 1.25
inches or greater in height, accompanied by the Cage code of the pallet/container manufacturer and the month
and year of the contract. On pallets, the marking shall be applied to the
stringer or block on diagonally
opposite sides of the pallet and be contrasting and clearly visible. On
containers, the marking shall be applied on a side other than the top or
bottom, contrasting and clearly visible.”

 

NOTE:
Pallet suppliers who are in need of a commercial and government Entity (CAGE)
code, in order to meet the above cited marking requirement, must submit the
following information to the appropriate DSCP-H Contract Administrator through
the prime Contractor:

 

(5) Complete Company
(Pallet Manufacturer’s) Name

(6) Pallet manufacturer’s
Full Address

(7) Pallet manufacturer’s
Point of Contact (POC)

(8) Pallet manufacturer’s
phone number

 

DSCP-H will advise the
Prime Contractor of the Pallet Manufacturer’s assigned code.

 

II.    If the contractor incurs increased or
decreased costs as a result of this modification the changed costs must be
submitted to the ACO within 30 days. If nothing is submitted within 30 days,
this modification will be considered finalized at no increased or decreased cost
to the Government or the contractor. This does not waive any right of the ACO
to review this mod and proceed with a formal finalization of this modification.

New
contract verbiage for approved sources requirements (for operational rations):

 

As required by 48 CFR
246.471-1, Subsistence, AR
40-657, Veterinary/Medical Food Inspection
and Laboratory Service, DLAR 4155.3, Inspections of Subsistence Supplies and Services, Clause
52.246-9P31, “SANITARY CONDITIONS (JAN 1992)
DSCP”, and as clarified by the Armed Forces Food Risk Evaluation
Committee, 31 JAN 1996, all food components of Composite Operational Rations
will originate from US Army Veterinary Command (VETCOM) sanitarily approved
establishments. Acceptable sanitary approval is constituted by listing in
VETCOM Cir 40-1, “Directory of Sanitarily
Approved Food Establishments for Armed Forces Procurement”,
published by VETCOM, or, in some cases and as determined by DSCP and VETCOM, an
establishment inspected and approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) or the U.S. Department of Commerce (USDC) and possessing a USDA/USDC
establishment number. This requirement applies to all material, Government
Furnished (GFM) and Contractor Furnished (CFM) Operational Ration food
components and to all Operational Ration types. Requests for inspection and
“Directory” listing by VETCOM will be routed through DSCP-HR for coordination
and action. Situations involving proprietary supply sources will be addressed
as such, in coordination with the Chief, Approved Sources Division, VETCOM.

 

II. If the contractor
incurs increased or decreased costs as a result of this modification the
changed costs must be submitted to the ACO within 30 days. If nothing is
submitted within 30 days, this modification will be considered finalized at no
increased or decreased cost to the Government or the contractor.  This
does not waive any right of the ACO to review this mod and proceed with a
formal finalization of this modification.

Methods of
inspection.

 

(1)         
Commercial
sterility.
Testing for commercial sterility shall be in accordance with MIL-PRF-44073.

 

(2)         
Shelf life. The contractor shall provide a
certificate of conformance that the product has a 3 year shelf life when stored
at 80°F. Government verification may include storage for 6 months at 100°F or
36 months at 80°F. Upon completion of either storage period, the product will
be subjected to a sensory evaluation panel for appearance and palatability and
must receive an overall score of 5 or higher based on a 9 point hedonic scale
to be considered acceptable.

 

(3)         
Net weight. The net weight of the filled and sealed
pouches shall be determined by weighing each sample on a suitable scale tared
with a representative empty pouch. Results shall be reported to the nearest 0.1
ounce.

 

(4)         
Drained weight. The pouch contents shall be poured into
a flat-bottom container. A minimum of three times the volume of the pouch of
180°F to 190°F water shall be added to the container so as to cover the
contents. The contents and water shall be gently agitated so as to liquefy
rendered fat and to remove the sauce without breaking the potato dices. The
contents shall then be poured into a U.S. Standard No. 7 sieve in a manner that
will distribute the product over the sieve without breaking the potato dices.
The sieve area shall be such that the distributed product does not completely
cover all the openings of the sieve. The sieve shall be tilted at approximately
a 45° angle and allowed to drain for 2 minutes
before determining the drained weight by subtracting the sieve tare weight from
the gross weight. The drained weight shall be reported to the nearest 0.1
ounce.

 

(5)         
Analytical. The sample to be analyzed shall be a
composite of eight filled and sealed pouches that have been selected at random
from one production lot. The composite sample shall be prepared and analyzed in
accordance with the latest edition of the Official Methods of Analysis of AOAC
International (OMA). Test results shall be reported to the nearest 0.1 percent.
Verification will be conducted through actual testing by a Government laboratory.
Any result not conforming to the analytical requirements shall be cause for
rejection of the lot.

A.          
The following changes

Roasted) dated 17 September 1999:

 

Page 12.    Insert the following statements after the
Moisture content testing paragraph.

 

“(3)         
Aflatoxin testing. The filled and sealed pouches shall be
tested as specified in A-A-20164B, and this NOTE shall be applied to that
testing process:”

 

“Note:            
The following
conditions apply for aflatoxin testing on nuts shelled:

 

(1)         
For prepackaged
product received from a supplier and is not further processed, the contractor
will furnish a Certificate of Analysis that the aflatoxin in the roasted
peanuts (In the case of roasted peanuts end item) represented is not greater
than 15 parts per billion (ppb). No additional testing is required.

(2)         
For roasted peanuts
received in bulk (to be used in roasted peanuts end item), the contractor shall
have the bulk shipment sampled and tested by USDA. If (a) the bulk shipment is
not more than 2 ppb for aflatoxin as evidenced by a USDA Certificate, (b) the
end item lots are manufactured using that bulk product, and (c) both the bulk
and end item lots’ identities have been preserved, then no further aflatoxin
testing is required.

(3)   If
roasted peanuts are received in bulk (to be used in roasted peanuts end item),
and the conditions in (2) above are not met, each end-item lot must be sampled
and tested by USDA.  End item lots determined to be not greater than 15
ppb in aflatoxin as evidenced by a USDA Certificate will be considered
acceptable. Bulk roasted peanuts with aflatoxin greater than 15 ppb shall not
be used as ingredients.”

(1)                          
For prepackaged

will furnish a Certificate of Analysis that the aflatoxin in the roasted
peanuts (in the case of roasted peanuts end item) represented is not greater
than 15 parts per billion (ppb). No additional testing is required.

(2)                          
For roasted peanuts
received in bulk (to be used in nut raisin mix end item), the contractor shall
have the bulk shipment sampled and tested by USDA. If (a) the bulk shipment is
not more than 2 ppb for aflatoxin as evidenced by a USDA Certificate, (b) the
end item lots are manufactured using that bulk product, and (c) both the bulk
and end item lots’ identities have been preserved, then no further aflatoxin testing
is required.

(3)                          
If roasted peanuts
are received in bulk (to be used in nut raisin mix end item), and the
conditions in (2) above are not met, the bulk roasted peanut product may not be
used as an ingredient. Rework or segregation of portions of the bulk lot, and
further testing may be considered on a case-by-case basis.”

THIS
AGREEMENT, made and entered into this 19th day of SEP 2003, by and between the United States
Government through its agency, the Defense Supply Center Philadelphia (DSCP),
an operational component of the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), by its
authorized agent, the Procurement Contracting Officer (PCO) (hereinafter
referred to as the “Government”) and The Wornick Company (hereinafter called
the contractor.)

 

WITNESSETH
THAT,

 

1.            
The Government and
the Contractor hereby agree to the following terms and conditions hereinafter
set forth, for the use of the personal-property listed in paragraph 2 hereof.

 

2.            
ASSETS.

 

This agreement authorizes
the Contractor to take possession of and retain on the premises described below
(the approved premises) the Multivac R530 Horizontal Form Fill and Seal
Machines, serial number 640 (the equipment or the property) for the period
specified in paragraph 9 below. The approved premises shall be the Contractor’s
plant located at: The Wornick Company, Processed Products Division, 10825
Kenwood Road, Cincinnati, OH 45242.

 

3.            
INSTALLATION:

 

If installation is
needed, the Contractor shall be responsible for all costs to install the
equipment and prepare for its operation.

 

4.            
Upon commencement of
the term of this agreement, the Contractor shall retain possession of the
equipment “as is” without warranty, express or implied, on the part of the
Government as to condition or fitness for any purpose. Accountability of the
property shall be established by execution of this agreement. Spares support of
the machinery shall be in accordance with Paragraph 7 of this agreement.

 

5.            
USAGE.

 

a.            
Government
Use.  Approval
for the use of the equipment on Government contracts will be freely granted,
but the Procurement Contracting Officer (PCO) must authorize such use in any
supply contract on which the equipment will be used (See FAR 45.402). Unless
the use of the equipment is authorized by a clause in the supply contract, the
contractor desiring to use the equipment must request written authorization by the
contracting officer cognizant of the equipment (the equipment contracting
officer). If authorization is granted, it will be implemented by a modification
to the supply contract.

  Right Away Division

  	
   

  	
   

  
	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  
	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  

b.            
Commercial
Use Up To 25%.

 

Commercial use is also
encouraged and Is hereby authorized, but for a total period of use not to
exceed thirteen weeks (25%) of the contractor’s normal work schedule in any
fiscal year (See DFARS 245.407). That is, for a contractor running five
eight-hour shifts per week, the use here authorized should not exceed
sixty-five eight-hour shifts in a fiscal year (Any portion of a shift shall be
counted as a whole shift for the purpose of calculating this limitation. A
fiscal year is 365 days from the inception of the agreement, including day one
(or 366 days if the fiscal year includes a February 29th). The
contractor shall keep an accurate record of all use. Any questions about the
computation of the 25% limitation should be directed to the equipment
Contracting Officer either before the commencement of this agreement or as soon
as possible thereafter.

 

c.            
Commercial
Use Exceeding 25%.

 

DSCP has been delegated
the approval for commercial use. DSCP must approve commercial use exceeding 25%
of the time available for use, as determined in accordance with DFARS 245.407.
A contractor desiring to exceed that limit should therefore request from the
PCO permission to do so, and such requests should comply with the requirements
of DFARS 245.407, should specify the duration of use exceeding 25% requested
and should be submitted at least six weeks before the projected use.

 

6.            
RESTRICTIONS.

 

a.            
The property shall be
restricted to the limitations of the applicable Multivac R530 Technical Manuals
and applicable FDA and USDA regulations.

 

b.            
Qualified operators
and technicians shall be the only persons permitted to operate or make repairs
on this property.

 

c.            
The Contractor is not
authorized to effect any nonstandard modifications to the property without the
written consent of the Contracting Officer.

 

7.            
SPARES AND SUPPORT
EQUIPMENT.

 

The contract by which the
Government purchased this property includes spare parts to maintain this
property. In the event a manufacturer furnished spare part is either damaged or
consumed during this agreement; the Contractor shall repair or replace that
item at no cost to the Government. Attachment 1 lists the parts furnished by
the Government or the equipment manufacturer and delivered to the contractor.
The Contractor shall provide a list of all spare parts being returned to the
Government upon the return of such property.

8.            
RIGHT OF PREEMPTIVE
USE.

 

The equipment’s primary
purpose is to augment the surge capacity available to the Government. Since the
government expects to authorize use of the equipment for commercial contracts,
the Government reserves the right to preempt such use whenever, in the judgment
of the Contracting Officer, exigent circumstances require that the equipment be
reserved solely for Government contracts. In such instances, the Contracting
Officer will provide two weeks written notice to the Contractor that the
Government is exercising it’s right of preemptive use. At the end of that two-week
period; use of the equipment for commercial contracts shall cease and it may be
used only as directed by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor should
consider this right of preemptive use and must provide for it in any commercial
contract for which it intends to use the equipment. A shared production
agreement or some similar arrangement is recommended.

 

9.            
PERIOD OF AGREEMENT.

 

This agreement shall be
for a term of one year from its effective date, which shall be the date the
Contractor’s offer (this document signed by the Contractor) is executed by the
PCO, which shall be not more than 30 days after the offer is submitted to the
Government. The agreement shall be terminable at any time during the year by
either party giving to the other two weeks (fourteen calendar days) written
notice of termination. The notice period will begin when it is received; day
one will be the day after receipt; and the agreement will expire at the end of
the fourteenth calendar day after receipt. In the absence of such notice, the
agreement shall renew for an additional period of one year, and so on from year
to year, until either party shall give the other two weeks written notice of
termination. This agreement constitutes general authorization for the contractor
to have possession of the equipment on the approved premises. Authorization for
use must be specifically requested and granted as provided in paragraph 5,
Usage, above, except to the extent authorization is specifically granted in
that paragraph.

 

10.          
RENTAL CHARGES.

 

a.            
The Contractor shall
pay the Government a rental fee (rent) based on the use of the equipment in any
non-government work. The usage fee shall be $195.00 for any 8-hour shift or
part thereof, or $243.75 for any 10-hour shift or part thereof. The rental fee
shall be calculated as follows:

 

	
  Monthly Rent:

  	
   

  	
  Number of 8 hour shifts
  X $195.00 = Rental Fee.

  
	
   

  	
   

  	
  Number of 10 hour
  shifts X $243.75 = Rental Fee.

  

 

 

b.            
The Contractor shall
be responsible for maintaining usage records and providing such records, which
are certified by the resident USDA Inspector or designated DCMC official, to
the PCO (Attn: Paul Ferrante) with a statement describing the rental fee due,
and a certified check in accordance with Paragraph 10 f. This

day after each calendar month. For any month in which the contractor has no
non-government use, the contractor shall forward a notarized statement of
non-usage no later than the 10th day after each such month.

 

c.

d.            
The rental accrued at
the expiration, termination or revocation of this agreement, shall be paid to
the Government on or before the 10th day thereafter.

 

e.            
Failure of the
Contractor to provide the information required by paragraph b, above, to the
PCO (Attn: Paul Ferrante) by the 10th of each succeeding month shall
result in a rental charge for the month not reported on, of $3,750.00, which
equals 1% of the purchase price.

12.          
MAINTENANCE OF
GOVERNMENT PROPERTY.

 

The Contractor shall
maintain the property in accordance with the appropriate Multivac Technical
Manuals. The Contractor shall not cause any loss of coverage under the
manufacturer’s warranty. Should coverage under the warranty be lost, the
Contractor shall be responsible for replacing any part that would be otherwise
covered under the warranty. If replacement of a Multivac R530 component is
required to maintain the Multivac R530 in usable condition, the warranty
provisions from the manufacturer will be used to effect replacement. In the
event that the warranty has expired or does not cover the damaged part and the
damage is not caused by the negligence of the Contractor or his agents or
employees, the Contractor is authorized to purchase the required part and
deduct the amount of that part from the above monthly rate once the part has
been delivered. If there are no commercial charges for that month, the
Contractor shall carry over the amount until there is a month that has commercial
charges. The replacement cost may be used as a credit only to offset rental
costs. In no case will the spare part replacement be reimbursable, The
Government will not provide replacement components. The determination as to the
cause of the part’s damage or failure is the responsibility of the Contracting
Officer or designee.

 

13.          
CONDITIONS FOR RETURN
OF MULTIVAC R530 TO THE U.S. GOVERNMENT.

 

Any repair or maintenance
work required to be performed before returning property to the Government is a
contractor’s cost. The equipment shall be inspected by a Government

Government via DD Form 1149.

 

14.          
The Contractor will
provide operators, additional parts and maintenance at no cost to the
Government.

Officer.

 

16.

not mortgage, pledge, assign, transfer, sublet or part with possession of the
equipment in any manner to any third party either directly or indirectly,

the equipment, the Contractor shall pay to the government the amount specified
in paragraph 11 above, as the value of the equipment less the amount determined
by the Contracting Officer to represent reasonable wear and tear for the period
during which the equipment was usable. If the Contractor returns the equipment
in other than as good a condition as when received, reasonable wear and tear
excepted, the Contractor shall pay to the government the amount specified in
paragraph 11 as the value of the equipment less both the amount determined by
the Contracting Officer to represent reasonable wear and tear for the period

THIS
AGREEMENT, made and entered into this 19th day of SEP 2003, by and between the United States
Government through its agency, the Defense Supply Center Philadelphia (DSCP),
an operational component of the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), by its
authorized agent, the Procurement Contracting Officer (PCO) (hereinafter
referred to as the “Government”) and The Wornick Company (hereinafter called
the contractor.)

 

WITNESSETH
THAT,

 

1.            
The Government and
the Contractor hereby agree to the following terms and conditions hereinafter,
set forth, for the use of the personal property listed in paragraph 2 hereof.

 

2.            
ASSETS.

 

This agreement authorizes
the Contractor to take possession of and retain on the premises described below
(the approved premises) the Multivac R530 Horizontal Form Fill and Seal
Machines, serial number 636 (the equipment or the property) for the period
specified in paragraph 9 below. The approved premises shall be the Contractor’s
plant located at: The Wornick Company, Processed Products Division, 10825
Kenwood Road, Cincinnati, OH 45242.

 

3.            
INSTALLATION:

 

If Installation is
needed, the Contractor shall be responsible for all costs to install the
equipment and prepare for its operation.

 

4.            
Upon commencement of
the term of this agreement, the Contractor shall retain possession of the
equipment “as is” without warranty, express or implied, on the part of the
Government as to condition or fitness for any purpose. Accountability of the
property shall be established by execution of this agreement. Spares support of
the machinery shall be in accordance with Paragraph 7 of this agreement.

 

5.            
USAGE.

 

a.            
Government
Use. 
Approval for the use of the equipment on Government contracts will be freely
granted, but the Procurement Contracting Officer (PCO) must authorize such use
in any supply contract on which the equipment will be used (See FAR 45.402).
Unless the use of the equipment is authorized by a clause in the supply
contract, the contractor desiring to use the equipment must request written
authorization by the contracting officer cognizant of the equipment (the
equipment contracting officer). If authorization is granted, it will be
implemented by a modification to the supply contract.

b.            
Commercial
Use Up To 25%.

 

Commercial use is also
encouraged and is hereby authorized, but for a total period of use not to
exceed thirteen weeks (25%) of the contractor’s normal work schedule in any
fiscal year (See DFARS 245.407). That is, for a contractor running five
eight-hour shifts per week, the use here authorized should not exceed
sixty-five eight-hour shifts in a fiscal year (Any portion of a shift shall be
counted as a whole shift for the purpose of calculating this limitation. A
fiscal year is 365 days from the inception of the agreement, including day one
(or 366 days if the fiscal year includes a February 29th). The
contractor shall keep an accurate record of all use. Any questions about the
computation of the 25% limitation should be directed to the equipment
Contracting Officer either before the commencement of this agreement or as soon
as possible thereafter.

 

c.            
Commercial Use Exceeding 25%.

 

DSCP has been delegated
the approval for commercial use. DSCP must approve commercial use exceeding 25%
of the time available for use, as determined in accordance with DFARS 245.407.
A contractor desiring to exceed that limit should therefore request from the
PCO permission to do so, and such requests should comply with the requirements
of DFARS 245.407, should specify the duration of use exceeding 25% requested
and should be submitted at least six weeks before the projected use.

 

6.            
RESTRICTIONS.

 

a.            
The property shall be
restricted to the limitations of the applicable Multivac R530 Technical Manuals
and applicable FDA and USDA regulations.

 

b.            
Qualified operators
and technicians shall be the only persons permitted to operate or make repairs
on this property.

 

c.            
The Contractor is not
authorized to effect any nonstandard modifications to the property without the
written consent of the Contracting Officer.

 

7.            
SPARES AND SUPPORT
EQUIPMENT.

 

The contract by which the
Government purchased this property includes spare parts to maintain this
property. In the event a manufacturer furnished spare part is either damaged or
consumed during this agreement; the Contractor shall repair or replace that
item at no cost to the Government. Attachment 1 lists the parts furnished by
the Government or the equipment manufacturer and delivered to the contractor.
The Contractor shall provide a list of all spare parts being returned to the
Government upon the return of such property.

8.            
RIGHT OF PREEMPTIVE
USE.

 

The equipment’s primary
purpose is to augment the surge capacity available to the Government. Since the
government expects to authorize use of the equipment for commercial contracts,
the Government reserves the right to preempt such use whenever, in the judgment
of the Contracting Officer, exigent circumstances require that the equipment be
reserved solely for Government contracts. In such instances, the Contracting
Officer will provide two weeks written notice to the Contractor that the
Government is exercising it’s right of preemptive use. At the end of that
two-week period, use of the equipment for commercial contracts shall cease and
it may be used only as directed by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor
should consider this right of preemptive use and must provide for it in any
commercial contract for which it intends to use the equipment. A shared
production agreement or some similar arrangement is recommended.

 

9.            
PERIOD OF AGREEMENT.

 

This agreement shall be
for a term of one year from its effective date, which shall be the date the
Contractor’s offer (this document signed by the Contractor) is executed by the
PCO, which shall be not more than 30 days after the offer is submitted to the
Government. The agreement shall be terminable at any time during the year by
either party giving to the other two weeks (fourteen calendar days) written
notice of termination. The notice period will begin when it is received; day
one will be the day after receipt; and the agreement will expire at the end of
the fourteenth calendar day after receipt. In the absence of such notice, the
agreement shall renew for an additional period of one year, and so on from year
to year, until either party shall give the other two weeks written notice of
termination. This agreement constitutes general authorization for the
contractor to have possession of the equipment on the approved premises.
Authorization for use must be specifically requested and granted as provided in
paragraph 5, Usage, above, except to the extent authorization is specifically
granted in that paragraph.

 

10.          
RENTAL CHARGES

 

a.            
The Contractor shall
pay the Government a rental fee (rent) based on the use of the equipment in any
non-government work. The usage fee shall be $195.00 for any 8-hour shift or
part thereof, or $243.75 for any 10-hour shift or part thereof. The rental fee
shall be calculated as follows:

 

Monthly Rent:      Number of 8 hour shifts X $195.00 =
Rental Fee.

Number of 10 hour shifts
X $243.75 = Rental Fee.

 

b.            
The Contractor shall
be responsible for maintaining usage records and providing such records, which
are certified by the resident USDA Inspector or designated DCMC official, to
the PCO (Attn: Paul Ferrante) with a statement describing the rental fee due,
and a certified check in accordance with Paragraph 10 f. This

c.            
documentation and
payment shall be provided to the Government on or before the 10th
day after each calendar month. For any month in which the contractor has no
non-government use, the contractor shall forward a notarized statement of
non-usage no later than the 10th day after each such month.

 

d.            
This rental
assessment does not limit the Government’s right to reassess a higher rental
fee if subsequent information demonstrates that a higher rental fee was due in
accordance with calculation in Paragraph 10.a.

 

e.            
The rental accrued at
the expiration, termination or revocation of this agreement, shall be paid to
the Government on or before the 10th day thereafter.

 

f.             
Failure of the
Contractor to provide the information required by paragraph b, above, to the
PCO (Attn: Paul Ferrante) by the 10th of each succeeding month shall
result in a rental charge for the month not reported on, of $3,750.00, which
equals 1% of the purchase price.

 

g.            
Payment of rent for
the equipment and spare parts will be made by check in the following manner:

12.          
MAINTENANCE OF
GOVERNMENT PROPERTY.

 

The Contractor shall
maintain the property in accordance with the appropriate Multivac Technical
Manuals. The Contractor shall not cause any loss of coverage under the
manufacturer’s warranty. Should coverage under the warranty be lost, the
Contractor shall be responsible for replacing any part that would be otherwise
covered under the warranty. If replacement of a Multivac R530 component is
required to maintain the Multivac R530 in usable condition, the warranty
provisions from the manufacturer will be used to effect replacement. In the
event that the warranty has expired or does not cover the damaged part and the
damage is not caused by the negligence of the Contractor or his agents or
employees, the Contractor is authorized to purchase the required part and
deduct the amount of that part from the above monthly rate once the part has
been delivered. If there are no commercial charges for that month, the
Contractor shall carry over the amount until there is a month that has
commercial charges. The replacement cost may be used as a credit only to offset
rental costs. In no case will the spare part replacement be reimbursable. The
Government will not provide replacement components. The determination as to the
cause of the part’s damage or failure is the responsibility of the Contracting Officer
or designee.

 

13.          
CONDITIONS FOR RETURN
OF MULTIVAC R530 TO THE U.S. GOVERNMENT.

 

Any repair or maintenance
work required to be performed before returning property to the Government is a
contractor’s cost. The equipment shall be inspected by a Government
representative designated by the Contracting Officer and returned to the U.S.
Government via DD Form 1149.

 

14.          
The Contractor will
provide operators, additional parts and maintenance at no cost to the
Government.

 

15.          
The Contractor, at
his own expense, shall store and maintain the equipment in good condition and
repair and make all necessary replacement of components and parts during the
term of the agreement. The Contractor shall furnish all lubricants. maintenance
and shop usage items. The Contractor shall assume all charges for the use or
maintenance of this equipment during the term of this agreement. Maintenance
shall be in accordance with good manufacturing practices and paragraph 18.

alterations in the equipment, except with written consent of the Contracting
Officer.

 

16.          
The Contractor shall

17.          
After taking
possession as provided in clause 4, the Contractor shall be solely responsible
for the equipment until it is returned to the Government as provided for in
this agreement. The equipment shall be returned in as good a condition as when
received, reasonable wear and tear excepted. If the Contractor fails to return
the equipment, the Contractor shall pay to the government the amount specified
in paragraph 11 above, as the value of the equipment less the amount determined
by the Contracting Officer to represent reasonable wear and tear for the period
during which the equipment was usable. If the Contractor returns the equipment
in other than as good a condition as when received, reasonable wear and tear
excepted, the Contractor shall pay to the government the amount specified in
paragraph 11 as the value of the equipment less both the amount determined by
the Contracting Officer to represent reasonable wear and tear for the period
during which the equipment was usable and the scrap value of the equipment.

 

18.          
The Contractor shall
take all steps necessary to protect the interests of the Government in the
equipment, and the Contracting Officer may require the Contractor, at its own
expense, to take reasonable measures, including but not limited to the
procurement of insurance as may be necessary to protect such interest.

 

19.          
On or before the last
day of the term of this agreement or, in the event of earlier termination, as
soon after termination as possible, the Contractor shall return the equipment
to the location designated by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall be
responsible and pay for all costs, including packaging, handling and
transportation charges, to deliver the equipment to the designated location,
except that the Contractor’s responsibility for return transportation charges
shall not exceed the amount required to return the property to DSCP,
Philadelphia, PA. In the event the Government incurs any packaging, handling or
transportation costs in the return of the property, the Contractor shall
promptly reimburse the Government upon presentation of a statement thereof. In
the event a return location is not provided by the Contracting Officer before
the completion or revocation of this agreement, the Contractor agrees to
continue to store, maintain, prepare for shipment and assume full
responsibility and liability for the property, at no cost to the Government,
for a period up to 60 days after expiration or revocation of this agreement.

 

20.          
The property is
provided without operators. Any operators deemed incompetent by the Contracting
Officer shall be barred from using the equipment.

 

21.          
In addition to the
requirements set forth in any other part of this Agreement, the Contractor
shall submit reports and records as required by FAR 52.245-2 Government
Property (Fixed Price Contracts). These records shall be submitted in duplicate
to the Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO) or his/her designee. The ACO
shall provide a copy to James Lecollier, Defense Supply Center Philadelphia,
Attn: DSCP-HRAA, 700 Robbins Avenue, Building 6B, Philadelphia, PA 19111-5092.

22.          
Upon request of the
Contractor, the Contracting Officer shall furnish without charge, copies of
drawings, specifications, or instructions as the Contractor may require for the
operation of repair of the equipment and as may, in the discretion of the Contracting
Officer, be reasonably available.

 

23.          
INDEMNIFICATION.

 

The Contractor shall
indemnify and hold the Government harmless against claims (including reasonable
expenses of litigation and/or settlement) for damages to the equipment of the Contractor
or claims by third persons (including officers, agents, servants or employees
of the Contractor) for death, personal injury, loss of or damage to equipment
arising from Contractor’s authorized or unauthorized use of the equipment and
occurring during the term of the agreement. The Contractor shall assume all
risk of loss, damage or destruction to the equipment. Nothing contained in this
paragraph shall be deemed to affect liability of the government to its own
employees. In the event of a claim or notice of legal action arising under this
agreement, the party (Government or Contractor) first receiving notice of the
action shall notify the other as soon as possible after receipt of said claim
or notice.

 

24.          
At all times, the
Contracting Officer (or authorized designee) shall have access to the job site
whereon any of the equipment is situated for the purposes of inspecting or
inventorying the same, or for the purpose of removing the same in the event of
the termination of the agreement.

 

25.          
CONTROL AND
MAINTENANCE OF GOVERNMENT PROPERTY.

 

The contractor shall be
solely responsible for the storage and maintenance of the equipment at no cost
to the Government. The provisions of Subpart 45.5 of the Federal Acquisition
Regulations (FAR) and the DOD FAR Supplement that set forth requirements for
establishing and maintaining control over Government equipment are incorporated
by reference and made part hereof.

 

26.          
ADJUSTMENT OF RENTALS
– STATE OR LOCAL TAXATION.

 

Except as may be
otherwise provided, the rental rates established in this agreement do not
include any State or local tax on the equipment herein. If and to the extent
that the State and local government hereinafter make such equipment taxable by
Act of Congress, then in such event the agreement shall be renegotiated.

packaging shall be free from foreign matter, which is unwholesome, has the
potential to cause package damage (i.e. glass, metal filings, etc.), or
generally detracts from the clean appearance of the package. The following
examples shall not be scored as defects for unclean:

 

a.    
Foreign matter which presents no health hazard or potential package damage and
which can be readily removed by gently shaking the package or by gently
brushing the package with a clean dry cloth.

 

b.    
Localized dried product which affects less than 1/8 of the total surface area
of one pouch face, or an aggregate of scattered dried product which affects
less than 1/4 of the total surface area of one pouch face.

failing to meet a seal
strength of 3 pounds per inch of width shall be scored as a major defect. Any
average seal strength of less than 3.5 pounds per inch of width shall be cause
for rejection of the lot. Alternatively, the internal pressure resistance shall
be determined by pressurizing the pouches while they are restrained between two
rigid plates. The sample size shall be the number of pouches indicated by
inspection level S-l. If a three seal tester (one that pressurizes the pouch
through an open end) is used, the closure seal shall be cut off for testing the
side and bottom seals of the pouch. For testing the closure seal, the bottom
seal shall be cut off. The pouches shall be emptied prior to testing. If a
four-seal tester (designed to pressurize filled pouches by use of a hypodermic
needle through the pouch wall) is used, all four seals can be tested
simultaneously. The distance between rigid restraining plates on the four-seal
tester shall be equal to the thickness of the product +1/16 inch. Pressure
shall be applied at the approximate uniform rate of 1 pound per square inch
gage (psig) per second until 14 psig pressure is reached. The 14 psig pressure
shall be held constant for 30 seconds and then released. The pouches shall then
be examined for separation or yield of the heat seals. Any rupture of the pouch
or evidence of seal separation greater than 1/16 inch in the pouch
manufacturer’s seal shall be considered a test failure. Any seal separation
that reduces the effective closure seal width to less than 1/16 inch (see table
IV, footnote (2) shall be
considered a test failure. Any test failure shall be cause for rejection of the
lot.

 

b. Unfilled
meal bag. The seals of the unfilled meal bags shall be tested for seal
strength in accordance with ASTM F 88. The lot size shall be expressed in bags.
The sample unit shall be one bag. The sample size shall be the number of bags
indicated by inspection level S-1. Three specimens shall be cut from the sealed
end of each bag in the sample. Samples shall not be taken from the inverted “V”
peel initiation. Any specimen with a seal strength less than 4 pounds per inch
of width or greater than 10 pounds per inch of width shall be cause for
rejection of the lot.

 

c. Subassembly
packet/accessory packet pouch closure. The closure seals of the pouches for
the subassembly packet/accessory packet shall be tested for seal strength in
accordance with ASTM F 88. The lot size shall be expressed in pouches. The
sample unit shall be one pouch. The inspection level shall be S-1 and the AQL,
expressed in defects per hundred units, shall be 10.0. For the closure seal on
preformed pouches, three adjacent specimens shall be cut from the closure seal
of each pouch in the sample. For the form-fill-seal pouches, three specimens shall
be cut from each side and each end of each pouch in the sample. The average
seal strength of any side, end or closure shall be calculated by averaging the
three specimens cut from that side, end or closure. Any test specimen failing
to meet a seal strength of 3 pounds per inch of width shall be scored as a
major defect. Any average seal strength of less than 3.5 pounds per inch of
width shall be cause for rejection of the lot. Alternatively, the internal
pressure resistance shall be determined by pressurizing the pouches while they
are restrained between two rigid plates. The sample size shall be the number of
pouches indicated by inspection level S-1, If a three seal tester (one that
pressurizes the pouch through an open end) is used, the closure seal shall be
cut off for testing the side and bottom seals of the pouch. For testing the
closure seal, the bottom seal shall be cut off. The pouches shall be emptied
prior to testing. If a four-seal tester (designed to pressurize filled pouches
by use of a hypodermic needle through the pouch wall) is used, all four seals
can be tested simultaneously. The distance between rigid restraining plates on
the four-seal tester shall be equal to the thickness of the product +1/16 inch.
Pressure shall be applied at the approximate uniform rate of 1 pound per square
inch gage (psig) per second until 14 psig pressure is reached. The 14 psig
pressure shall be held constant for 30 seconds and then released. The pouches
shall then be examined for separation or yield of the heat seals. Any rupture
of the pouch or evidence of seal separation greater than 1/16 inch in the pouch
manufacturer’s seal shall be considered a test failure. Any seal separation
that reduces the effective
closure seal width to less than 1/16 inch (see table IV, footnote (2)) shall be
considered a test failure. Any test failure shall be cause for rejection of the
lot.

General Requirements

 

Pallets. Unless otherwise
specified herein, or by contract, pallets shall conform to Part 3 and Part 9 of
ASME MH1b-2000. Pallets shall be Class 1, Type 2, Style 6, Size 2. For pallet
loads under 1500 pounds, ref. Part 9, Table 4, ASME Part No. MH1/9-02SW4048.
For pallet loads 1501 to 3000 pounds, ref. Part 9, Table 4, ASME Part No.
MH1/9-O5SW4048.

 

Note:
When unitizing individual field meals (MRE, MCW, LRP) and humanitarian ration
(HDR), the top deck surface area “footprint” of the specified double wing
pallet may be increased to reduce load overhang. Maximum top deck dimensions of
(L)43”x(W)51.5” may be used. This option only applies to top deck board and
stringer (length) dimensions.

 

Pads. When specified in
specification sheets, top and bottom pads shall be fabricated from fiberboard
conforming to class weather-resistant of ASTM D4727. Alternatively, in lieu of
a bottom fiberboard pad, a moisture barrier material fabricated from 4 mil or
thicker commercial polyethylene film may be used. The pad or barrier material
shall be approximately the same size as the load base, except the top
fiberboard pad shall not extend beyond sides and ends of the load.

Strapping. Strapping
shall be nonmetallic as specified herein.

 

Nonmetallic strapping.
Nonmetallic strapping shall conform to type II or III or IV of ASTM D3950,
having a minimum breaking strength of 900 pounds. Buckles shall not be used.
When specified in the contract, the strapping on the end item load shall be
tested for seal (joint) strength, and shall meet the requirement specified in
ASTM D3950, when tested as specified under “Strapping Seal (joint) testing”
below.

 

Formation of load.
Shipping containers in each palletized unit load shall be uniformly arranged in
a pallet pattern that results in the utilization of at least 80% of the pallets
surface area. Pallet pattern guidelines can be found in MIL-HDBK-774. If the
contractor cannot achieve required surface area efficiencies, a proposed unit
load configuration plan shall be submitted to the contracting officer for
approval. Unless otherwise specified, the overall dimensions of the palletized
loads shall not exceed 43 inches in length, 52 inches in width, and 43 inches
in height (including pallet and cap when required),. (See Table I for
consolidation box dimensions). A plus tolerance of 1 inch will be allowed for
the height only. The shipping container shall be stacked to form a compact
squared load centered on the load base and shall be squared with all corners of
the pallet with minimum overhang. The overhang or underhang shall be equalized
with the sides and/or ends of the pallets. The shipping containers of each
pallet load shall be interlocked by reversing the pattern in each course,
except when the containers are of such dimensions as to prohibit interlocking
patterns.

 

Marking. All unit loads
shall be marked on two sides in accordance with DSCP Form 3556 or as specified
in the contract. Alternatively, when the required markings on one or more
individual shipping containers are exposed on two sides of the unit load, a
minimum 3 by 5-inch white label shall be applied on the same two sides of the
load. The label shall be marked (letter size not less than 1/2 inch) with the
quantity (number of units per load), and when required, gross weight, and cube.
The values marked for gross weight and cube shall have a tolerance of +
3 percent when tested as specified herein under Gross Weight and Cube Testing.

QUALITY ASSURANCE
PROVISIONS

 

Responsibility for
inspection. Unless otherwise specified in the contract or purchase order, the
contractor is responsible for the performance of all inspection requirements
(examinations and tests) as specified herein. Except as otherwise specified in
the contract or purchase order, the contractor may use his own or any other
facilities suitable for the performance of the inspection requirements
specified herein, unless disapproved by the Government. The Government reserves
the right to perform any of the inspections set forth in this specification
where such inspections are deemed necessary to ensure supplies and services
conform to prescribed requirements.

 

Responsibility for
compliance. All items shall meet the requirements of this document. The
inspection set forth in this specification shall become a part of the
contractor’s overall inspection system or quality program. The absence of any
inspection requirements in the specification shall not relieve the contractor
of the responsibility of ensuring that all products or supplies submitted to
the Government for acceptance comply with all requirements of the contract.
Sampling inspection, as part of manufacturing operations, is an acceptable
practice to ascertain conformance to requirements, however, this does not
authorize submission of known defective material, either indicated or actual,
nor does it commit the Government to accept defective material.

 

Quality conformance
inspection. Unless otherwise specified, sampling for inspection shall be
performed in accordance with ANSI/ASQC Z-1.4.

 

Component and
material inspection. 
Components and materials shall be inspected in accordance with all the
requirements of reference documents unless otherwise excluded, amended,
modified, or qualified in this specification or applicable purchase document.

 

Unit load visual
examination. 
The unit loads shall be examined for the defects listed in Table II. The lot
size shall be expressed in units of unitized or containerized unit loads. The
sample unit shall be one unitized or containerized unit load. The inspection
level shall be S-4 and the AQL, expressed in terms of defects per hundred
units, shall be 4.0. In the event that the lot size is less than three, 100
percent inspection shall be performed.

Unit Load Testing.

 

Strapping Seal (joint)
Testing. When specified, the seal (joint) strength of nonmetallic strapping
seals shall be tested in accordance with the breaking strength procedure of
ASTM D3950. The sample shall be three seal (joint) specimens taken from the
strapping on one unit load selected at random from the lot. Each strapping
specimen shall be 48 inches in length with the seal (joint) located at the
specimen midpoint. When the average breaking strength of the specimens is less
than the requirement, it shall be cause for rejection of the lot.

 

Gross Weight and Cube
testing. The unit load gross weight and cube may be established on an average
basis, for marking purposes. The weight and cube average shall be based on a minimum of 5 unit loads. Loads should be
stacked (not more than three high) to permit normal compression and settling
prior to measurement of cube determination. The lot shall be unacceptable if
the average unit load weight and cube marked on the load is less than or
exceeds 3.0 percent tolerance.

 

NOTE: Contracting Officer must specify the
following in the solicitation/contract:

 

1.  Title, Number and Date of this Form.

2.  Type and Class.

3.  When height of palletized load is higher than
specified.

4.  Verification testing as applicable.

F.
MARKING FOR PALLETIZED/CONTAINERIZED SHIPMENTS

 

1.             
MARKING AND SPECIAL MARKINGS

 

a.                        
Markings and special
markings as specified by Section D-3 (if applicable) for
palletized/containerized unit loads shall be stenciled, printed, or labeled on
two adjacent sides as follows:

Line 1 – NSN

Line 2 – Item Description or Name

Line 3 – Quantity, Size and Unit,(1)

Line 4 – Gross Weight and Cube(2)

Line 5 – Contract
or P.O. number (Delivery Order Number (when applicable)) and Lot Number(3)(4)

Line 6 – Name and Address of Contractor(3)

Line 7 – Date
of Pack (DOP)

Line 8 – Inspection/Test Date(5)

 

(1) The quantity is the number of shipping cases in
the unit load.

 

(2) Gross weight and cube; include the weight and
dimensions of the pallet or load base.

 

(3) Contract markings (lines 5 and 6); required to be
applied to one side surface of the unitized load.

 

(4) Different lot numbers will not be mixed on the
same pallet load except for end of shift/partial lot quantities. The unit load
markings shall reflect all involved lot numbers

 

(5) Inspection Test Date (ITD) is not required for
shipment when the ration components are shipped to ration assembly points,
except, Unitized Group Ration component item unit loads destined for government
depot assembly points shall display ITD markings.

 

2.             
MARKINGS

 

a.              
Sheathed or
Consolidation Boxes. The above-required marking may be applied directly on any
two adjacent sides as shown in figure 3.

 

9

 

Additionally, the Subsistence Crescent and bar code
symbol must be applied in the approximate positions as shown in figure 3.

 

b.   Unsheathed Loads. Unit load
markings shall be placed on two adjacent sides of the unit load by means of
marking panels(1). Shipping cases will be placed or stacked so that the
shipping case contract data markings are facing towards the outside of the load
if possible. When required marking (see Section D) are exposed on two adjacent
sides of the load, on one or more individual shipping container(s), the marking
panel need only be marked with lines 3 and 4 as previously specified.

 

(1)  Marking Panels

 

The marking panel shall be made from weather resistant
fiberboard material complying with ASTM D 4727M. If the panel is secured to the
load with tape, it must be weather resistant and no less than 2 inches wide.
The tape shall be applied along each of the four edges of the panel; the ends
of the tape shall not extend more than 3 inches past the adjacent panel ridge.

 

3.             
SHRINK FILM OR STRETCH-WRAP

 

a.                   
For heat shrink or
stretch-wrap bonded loads, the required unit load markings will be applied
before the unit load is bonded with the film. When multi-layer applications of
stretch wrap film obscure the identification and contract markings that were
applied to the load prior to bonding, pressure sensitive labels shall be placed
on the outermost layer of wrap. Alternatively, a placard may be appropriately
positioned on the sides of the unit load just prior to applying the last layer
of stretch wrap. The outside labels/placards shall be placed on either the
identification sides of the load or on opposite sides.

 

NOTE: Outside labels/placards are in addition
to labels/placards affixed directly to the unit load as cited above.

 

10

 

G. ADDRESS MARKINGS

 

1.
DOCUMENTATION TO ACCOMPANY SEAVAN/MILVAN SHIPMENTS

 

Four copies of a document showing the contents of the
van, and including the words “Date Stuffed” with such date, will be placed in a
waterproof envelope marked “MILSTAMP DOCUMENTATION” and attached either to the
interior of the loading door of the van or to one of the packages visible
immediately upon opening. (This document may be any one of the following:
contract, delivery order, packing/loading list, DD Form 250, TCMD, Bill of
Lading or other document which fully identifies the contents.)

 

 

2. MILITARY SHIPPING LABELS (MSL)

 

a.    Military (DoD) and contractor-or
vendor-originated address markings, including the military shipment label (MSL)
and respective bar code symbols, shall be as specified in DOD 4500.9-R, Part
II; MIL-STD-129, and as summarized herein. The preferred location for applying
address markings to shipping containers is shown in figures 1,3,4. Exact
placement of MSLs may vary slightly from those shown.

 

b.   Military (DoD) and contractor- or
vendor-originated address markings (see figure 6). DoD and contractor- or
vendor shipping activities will apply address markings using a bar coded
military shipping label (MSL) for all shipments that will enter the Defense
Transportation System (DTS). This includes shipments moving within CONUS,
between CONUS and OCONUS, or conversely between OCONUS and CONUS. Shipments
originating at non-military facilities moving to or through any DTS node, to
include origin, consolidation, transship, or a receiving terminal, shall be
considered to have “entered the DTS” and must be marked with an MSL. Shipments
that will not enter the DTS shall have address markings applied as specified by
the responsible activity.

 

Military Shipping Label
(MSL) (see figure 6).
The MSL will be completed and attached as specified herein.

 

The MSL will include linear (Code 39) bar code symbols
formatted in accordance with MIL-STD-129 in reference to ISO/IEC 16388. Three
linear (Code 39) bar codes shall be encoded, respectively, with the shipment
unit Transportation Control Number (TCN), Piece number without leading zeros, and Ultimate Consignee /Mark for DoDAAC.

 

The MSL will also include a 2D(PDF417) symbol in
accordance with ISO/IEC 154387 and ISO/IEC 15434 (ANSI MH10.8.3), formatted in
accordance with Table

 

11

 

IV of MIL-STD-129 and as directed in the Defense
Transportation Regulation (DTR) DoD 4500.9-R. The 2D(PDF417) symbol will
contain specified MSL information, specified Transportation Control Movement
Document (TCMD) data, and line item supply data in accordance with the
following paragraphs. The applicable 2D(PDF417) symbol Data Identifier (DI)
format can be found in DoD 4500.9-R, Part II, Cargo Movement and Table IV of
MIL-STD-129. ISO/IEC 15434 (ANSI MH10.8.3) and ISO/IEC 15418 (ANSI MH10.8. 2)
are the references for M1L-STD-129 Table IV information.

 

The MSL 2D(PDF417) symbol is also structured to
provide information to receive supply line items. The Generic Cargo MSL
2D(PDF417) symbol stores a repeating set of selected data for each line item in
a single item pack shipment unit. Each data set reflects what is normally marked
in the bar codes on a DD Form 1348-1A, contractor generated packing list, or DD
Form 250/250c. The data capacity restrictions of the MSL 2D(PDF417) symbol will
normally limit its content to ten line items depending on the amount of MSL and
TCMD data recorded.

 

MSL size.

 

The recommended size for
the MSL is 4 inches by 6 inches.

 

MSL stock quality. The quality of the MSL will be such
that labels are suitable for ink printing without feathering or spreading. They
must withstand normal handling and shipping conditions and remain securely in
position. Application specific performance criteria and durability requirements
to ensure functionality in various climatic environments should be tailored as
required using MIL-PRF- 61002.

 

MSL format. A specific MSL layout format is not
required as long as the in-the-clear data and bar code entries meet required
standards and are easily machine and human readable. See figure 6 and Table IV
of MIL-STD-129 for detailed format requirements. The MSL format should retain
the applicable block titles associated with the data content (see 4.2.2.5 of
MIL-STD-129). Figure 6 illustrates an acceptable MSL format that may be used as
a guideline in producing a label. ANSI MH 10.8.1 is the referenced standard for
developing a DTR compliant MSL. The layout format is not mandated but must meet
the requirements directed by DOD 4500.9-R.

 

Completing the MSL
for address marking.
The MSL shall be completed as follows to include in-the-clear text or
descriptive information, linear (Code 39) bar codes with HRI, and a 2D(PDF417)
symbol.

 

a.              
Linear (Code 39) bar
code labels or 2D(PDF417) symbol labels with HRI may be affixed to the MSL as
an alternative to direct printing on the MSL.

 

12

 

b.             
Data identifier (DI)
codes shall not be used in conjunction with the linear (Code 39) bar codes.

c.              
The MSL unique
transport unit identifier shall be the TCN and it shall be printed in the top,
left block of the MSL.

d.             
Linear (Code 39) bar
codes or 2D(PDF417) bar code symbols shall not be positioned in the same linear
plane and the label layout should provide as much vertical spacing as available
between the bar code symbols to reduce the possibility of scanning
interference. A 2D (Maxi Code) symbol may be placed in line with a linear (Code
39) bar code or a 2D (PDF417) symbol.

e.              
The text for all
entries, except as noted below, shall be no smaller than 10 lines per 1 inch
(approximately a 7 point font). The preferred font size is 10 to 14 points.

 

(1)      The “Ship To” address character height
shall be no smaller than the “From” address character height and should be
distinctive in appearance, e.g., larger, bolder, different color, etc. The
“Ship To” address shall be located below or to the right of the “From” address.

(2)      The transportation priority numeral shall
be bold text and shall be 3/4 inch high (approximately a
72-point font).

 

Data content of
the MSL (see figure 6). The data content of the
MSL and the instructions for completion are summarized below. Data text
descriptions for the MSL are keyed to block titles and specifically detailed in
DoD 4500.9-R, Part II.

 

a.  The MSL
shall contain the following information:

requirements” w/ subparagraphs a. thru d.

 

(19) Blank

 

14

 

(20) Blank

 

(21) Local Processing Data. Shippers, for example
consolidation and containerization points (CCP), may add internal processing
information to the label as long as it is clearly marked and does not interfere
with the orientation and placement of MSL data, e.g., figure 6. Additional
non-mandatory data may be required by the contract or added based on trade
agreements, e.g., assigned serial number, in-the-clear nomenclature (item
description), national stock number, and commercial carrier internal tracking
number.

 

MSL
2D(PDF417) symbol coding requirements. Each MSL 2D (PDF417) symbol shall
contain the data elements from the applicable figure in Table IV of MIL-STD-129
for encoding MSL text, TCMD data, and supply line item information.

 

a.              
The data elements
include MSL information, header TCMD data (T0 through T3) and the respective
trailer data (T5 through T9) for the labeled shipment unit, and the line item
contents of the single shipment unit for generic cargo. Table IV-A of
MIL-STD-129 provides data descriptions, format, and data sources for the ANSI
MH 10.8.2 (ISO/lEC 15418) DIs used in the 2D(PDF4l7) symbol and for the data
element identifiers (DEI) that identify DoD unique data elements from the DTR
and DoD 4000.25-1-M (MILSTRIP). Tables IV-B and Table IV-C provide the content
of the data streams for sustainment cargo MSLs.

 

b. 
AH shipment unit data and line item data in the MSL 2D(PDF417) symbol
replicates data from the three sources noted below. If the data is available
and a corresponding DI or DEI is shown in the applicable Table IV-B or IV-C,
the data must be entered into the 2D(PDF417 symbol. Blank data fields are not
to be encoded. When multiple sources for a data element are identified, the
sources are prioritized as follows (TCMD) source has priority if it exists):

 

(1) Source 1: Header TCMD
data. Format 07 DEI 34 (Table IV-A of MIL-STD-129) must be used to identify the
Document Identifier Code of header TCMD data being documented in the 2D
(PDF417) symbol.

(2) Source 2: Supply
documentation (DD Form 1348-1A bar code data) or contract data for each supply
line item packaged within the shipment unit.

(3) Source 3: Shipment
information entered in the dear on the MSL.

 

c. The
following factors will be considered when determining the amount of available
data to record in the 2D(PDF417 symbol.

 

(1)       A consolidated shipment unit containing
multiple shipment units, as defined by DoD 4500.9-R, shall be documented by
encoded only the header TCMD data and its respective trailer TCMD information.
The MSL 2D(PDF417) symbol does not contain enough capability to

 

15

 

consistently record
containerized prime TCMD data (T4) and the respective trailer data for each T4
record. The 2D(PDF417) symbol for a consolidated shipment unit of multiple
shipment units, or a mix of line items and multiple shipment units, shall not
contain line item information and shall be marked in accordance with the next
paragraph.

 

(2)       It may not be possible to document the
supply line items of an entire multipack or consolidated shipment. If the AIT
media cannot store all of the line item data required to document the shipment
unit, the line item information shall be eliminated from the 2DF417) symbol. An
in-the-clear text message shall be entered at the bottom of the 2D(PDF417)
symbol stating “NO LINE ITEM DATA” and it shall be entered into the Format 07
DEI 35 (free text comment) area of the MSL 2D(PDF417) symbol for reprinting
purposes. If line item data is still desired for a shipment, it should be
included on an alternate form of high capacity AIT media.

 

(3)       In order to provide space for multiple
line item supply data in the 2D(PDF417) symbol of the Generic Cargo MSL, the
in-the-clear address data shall only be printed in the 2D (PDF417) symbol of a
Generic Cargo MSL for single line item shipments or when no line item data is
printed in the bar code. Most multi-piece shipments derive from a single line
item document; therefore, the addressing data will usually be available in the
2D(PDF4I7) symbol for reprinting MSLs when a transshipper needs to split a
multi-piece shipment.

 

d.                
When an MSL
2D(PDF417) symbol is generated in accordance with Table IV-B of M1L-STD-129
(Generic Cargo), it does not need to include DIs that are blank. Metric units
of measure may be used in the 2D(PDF417) symbol for selected DIs/DEIs as noted
in Table IV-A.

 

MSL bar code symbol
priming standards. The three linear bar codes and 2D(PDF417) symbol shall be
printed in accordance with this standard with reference to ANSI MH l0.8.1,
ISO/IEC 16388, and ISO/IEC 15438 for further explanation. ISO/IEC 15416 defines
print quality for linear bar codes. ISO/IEC 15415 defines print quality for
two-dimensional symbols. Printed symbols will conform to “B” quality standards
as defined in the appropriate standard. The requirements are summarized as
follows:

 

1.
Linear (Code 39) bar codes.

(1) The minimum bar
height shall be. 1/2 inch.

(2) The minimum narrow
element dimension (X-dimension) shall not be less than 0.01 inch.

(3) The wide to narrow
ratio of the elements should be 3:1. The measure ratio shall be between 2.4.1
and 3.2.1.

(4) The leading and
trailing quiet zones shall be not less than 0.25 inches.

(5) The linear bar codes
should be presented on shipment units with the bar codes horizontal (picket
fence orientation).

 

16

 

(6) The label should be
designed so that two bar codes and/or symbols are not in the same linear plane
unless the label is wide enough to reduce the possibility of interference with
successful bar code and/or symbol scanning.

(7) The quality of the
printed bar code shall meet a grade requirement of 2.5(B) at the point of
production when measured in accordance with ISO/IEC 15416 with a measurement
aperture of 0.25 mm and an inspection wavelength of 660 10nm.

 

2.
2D(PDF417) symbol. For technical details, see Table IV of MIL-STD-129.

 

Human readable
interpretation (HR1). The HRI of the TCN, piece number, and consignee DoDAAC
should appear above, below, or in line with the linear code. When in line, a
0.25-inch quiet zone shall be provided.

 

H.
PLACEMENT OF IDENTIFICATION AND ADDRESS MARKINGS

 

a.              
The exact location of
the identification markings may vary slightly. They shall be applied to the
upper left two-thirds of the end or side of the container having the greatest
overall, usable marking surface. Specific requirements for the placement of the
identification markings on various containers/units are illustrated in figures
1,3,4. Cleats, strapping or closure tape shall not obscure the required
marking.

 

b.             
Required address
markings shall be placed on the identification-marked side of exterior shipping
containers. If a container is too small to accommodate the address on the
identification-marked side, the address markings/label shall be applied on an
adjacent/opposite side or on a marking board/panel. When the surface of the
shipping container does not lend itself to direct application of the MSL, or
the MSL obscures other required markings on a shipping container or unit, the
label shall be displayed by means of a marking board or marking panel. Separate
marking boards or panels shall be used for identification and address markings.

 

c.              
Paper shipping sacks, bags, and textile/laminated textile bags.

 

When a label is used, it
shall be applied below the identification markings.

 

d.             
Unit
load (see figure 3).
When a palletized unit load is formed, the individual containers comprising the
unit load shall already be marked with the appropriate identification
information. The palletized unit load shall have the exterior container
identification and address markings applied as specified herein and as shown in
Figure 3. When a fiberboard container such as a triple-wall fiberboard box is
used for unitizing a load in lieu of palletization, all required markings, including
the address label, may be placed directly on the flat fiberboard surface. The
gross weight for palletized/containerized unit loads shall include the weight
of the pallet or container base. Because palletized loads are often stacked two
or three high when shipped or stored, the markings shall be large enough to be
read from a distance.

 

17

 

The
size of the lettering shall be proportionate to the overall size of the
unitized load but shall be not less than three-fourths of an inch in height.

Address
markings shall be placed on a marking board/panel by using a label.

When a
palletized load is covered with stretch-wrap film, pressure-sensitive labels
containing the address markings may be placed on the outermost layer of wrap on
either side of the load in addition to other marking requirements. Variations
are authorized based on local operations and capabilities (e.g., a marking
board/panel positioned on the pallet before the last layer of wrap is applied).

 

e. Commercial- or Government-owned (or -leased) shipping
containers (SEAVANs) and military-owned demountable containers (MILVANs)

 

Exterior
container identification markings shall not be placed on the outside of a
SEAVAN/MILVAN. A completed MSL shall be attached to the seal on the
SEAVAN/MILVAN or shall be attached at the rear of each SEAVAN/MILVAN. Shipping containers, consolidation containers, and
palletized unit loads, do not require individual address/bar code markings if
they have not been assigned an individual TCN and if they arc consolidated by
the shipper of origin into a full SEAVAN/MILVAN load for delivery as a single
shipment unit to the ultimate consignee. As per DTR direction, all
individual shipment units documented with a TCN, including those inside a
consolidation container, must be marked with an MSL to facilitate DTS movement,
in-transit visibility, and in-check/receipt processing. Activities that receive
shipments for consolidation are not required to obliterate address labels
applied by the shipper of origin or to relable the consolidated shipment units.

 

f. Full carload and full truckload shipments. Full
carload and full truckload shipments moving as a single shipment unit from a
single consignor to a single consignee require at least one completed MSL
attached to the container or palletized load located closest to the door.
Additional MSLs may be placed on other containers or palletized unit loads in
the shipment.

 

g. Less than carload and less than truckload
(LTD) shipments.  A MSL is required on all loose shipping
containers, or if palletized, unit loads, for less than carload and LTL lots.
Exterior container markings are not required on the train car or truck.

 

Direct vendor delivery (DVD).

 

Contractor- or vendor-originated DVD shipments require
identification marking and address marking with bar codes. DVD shipment documentation must also be marked with
additional bar codes. This additional issue/receipt bar code
requirement is applicable only to the shipment of materiel to a location other
than a DLA distribution depot. All shipments to DLA distribution depots (stock
buy) still require marking in accordance with this document. The issue/receipt
bar code markings shall either be placed on or printed on labels affixed to
either the DD Form 250/250c or the commercial packing list. If placed on the DD
Form 250/250c, they

 

18

 

should
be in blocks 15, 16, 17, etc. In either case, these documents shall be
furnished in a packing list envelope affixed to the outside of the shipping
container. The following separate lines of issue/receipt bar code data with HRI
printed directly below the linear (Code 39) bar code in accordance with ISO/IEC
16388, shall be provided as three bar codes containing data as described in DoD
4500,25-I-M, Appendix 2:

 

a. Bar code: Document
number and suffix (if applicable) for a maximum fourteen characters. It may be
referred to in a contract/order as the requisition number.

CLIN
Numbering Structure

 

All CLINS on existing
delivery orders generated prior to 30 April 2004 will be renumbered (i.e.
CLIN 0001AA, will be 3001, CLIN 0001AB, will be 3002) beginning with a “3”. You
will only see these renumbered “3XXX” CLINS on modifications.

 

Since there will be no
sub-clins used in SAP any; new orders/new clins on existing orders will be
numbered sequentially (i.e. CLIN 0001AA, is now 0001, CLIN 0001AB, is now
0002). Therefore, any new delivery orders or new CLINS on exiting delivery
orders generated after May 3rd 2004 will have the new CLIN
structure.  Below is an example of the new structure:
