SECTION H - SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS
The following have been modified:
SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS
H-42 TERMINATION/CANCELLATION LIABILITY
The contractor and Government agree the purpose of this clause is to induce the contractor to offer to provide and to provide the required services when the contractor otherwise would not offer to provide them because of the contractor’s inability to recover its costs in the event the Government does not exercise an option to extend the term of the contract or terminates the contract for the convenience of the Government.
In the event the Government does not exercise an option to extend the term of the contract or terminates the contract for convenience, the contractor shall be entitled to not-to-exceed cancellation costs subject to the following conditions and according to the following schedule:
Date of Government failure to exercise option or Date of Termination for Convenience: Cancellation Costs*:
| | | | | | | | |
1. | | Prior to delivery (of vessel or layberth) | | $ | 0.00 | | | (per vessel) |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | |
2. | | During 1st fixed performance period | | $ | 0.00 | | | (per vessel) |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | |
3. | | During 2nd fixed performance period | | $ | 0.00 | | | (per vessel) |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | |
4. | | During 3rd fixed performance period | | $ | 3,860,493.00 | | | (per vessel) |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | |
5. | | During 4th fixed performance period | | $ | 2,781,481.00 | | | (per vessel) |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | |
6. | | During 5th fixed performance period | | $ | 1,702,468.00 | | | (per vessel) |
| | | | | | | | |
| * | The Government shall insert final accepted prices in the schedule above prior to contract award. |
“Cancellation costs” means, and only means, costs specifically identified by the contractor in its proposal and actually incurred by the contractor between contract award and vessel delivery to the Government including, and limited to, the following categories of costs: costs incurred by the contractor for vessel acquisition, reflagging costs and modification, or conversion costs, and only to the extent such modification, or conversion costs were incurred in order for the vessel to meet contract requirements. The Government has sufficient working capital funds for these cancellation costs. The present value of the cancellation costs must be less than 25% of the vessel value upon delivery. See 10 U.S.C. § 2401.
When requesting payment of cancellation costs as a result of the Government’s failure to exercise an option, the contractor shall provide evidence satisfactory to the contracting officer verifying that contractor actually incurred the specified categories of cancellation costs prior to delivery of the vessel to the Government and the amount thereof. The cancellation costs must be reasonable, allowable, and allocable to the contract. In no event will the amount payable to the Contractor for such costs exceed the amount that would have been payable under the Termination for Convenience Clause had the subject contract been for 59 months and the Government terminated the contract for convenience on the date of the conclusion of the then current performance period.
In the event the Government terminates the contract for convenience, the Government will not be obligated in any event to reimburse the contractor for the specified categories of cancellation costs in excess of the amount allotted in the schedule above for each contract period regardless of anything to the contrary in the clause entitled “Termination for Convenience of the Government.”
The contractor agrees that payment of the specified cancellation costs according to the schedule above for any contract period fully compensates the contractor for the specified categories of cancellation costs. The contractor waives any right it may have to claim any additional costs for the specified categories of cancellation costs in the event such cancellation costs become payable, whether as a result of a termination for convenience or as a result of the Government’s failure to exercise an option. As used in this clause, the total amount payable by the Government for the specified categories of cancellation costs in the event the Government does not exercise an option or terminates for convenience is as set forth in the schedule above.
This clause does not limit the rights of the Government under the clause entitled “Default” or under the clause entitled “Termination for Convenience of the Government.”
The Cancellation Costs consist of the following expenses:
| | • | | Vessel improvements under NASSCO Contract Modification 31; and |
| | • | | Financing fees associated with the bond offering in May 2010, the proceeds of which were used to complete the construction of theEmpire State andEvergreen State. |
