the beat terms from all factors/subfactors standpoint. However, the Government
reserves the right to conduct discussions if determined necessary by the
procuring contracting officer.

7. This solicitation will result in a firm fixed price contract with a mandatory
Economic Price Adjustment (EPA) clause for brass/steel. The EPA clause is
numbered as I-62. Potential offerors are cautioned that failure to provide the
price information required by that clause may render your offer nonresponsive.
The cost data provided in this clause will not be considered in the evaluation
of price. This information will be used only in the calculation of an applicable
EPA. For a better understanding of the EPA clause, the following examples are
given:

EPA CLAUSE EXAMPLE

BACKGROUND - The unit price of the item being purchased is $100.00. The unit
price makeup for material (brass and/or steel only) is $50.00. (This is the
price of brass and/or steel - it does not include additives such as labor, 0/H,
OLA and profit)/

The EPA clause allows an adjustment based on the total unit price that, in this
case is $100.00. The EPA clause allows for an upward adjustment of up to 10%.
There is no downward limit-on the Adjustment. This adjustment is aggregate, not
per occurrence, during the same contract or option period. There is no immediate
adjustment for changes in material (brass and/or steel) prices of + or - 3% ($3)
to the total unit price, unless requested by either party after final delivery.

EXAMPLE A. During contract performance, the unit price makeup of brass/steel
rises by $8, from $50 to $58. This $8 increase amounts to 8% of the unit price
of the item. Because the rise in unit price of brass/steel is within the 10%
limit established by the clause, the contractor is entitled to receive an
increase of $8 per unit.

EXAMPLE B. During contract performance, the unit price makeup of brass/steel
drops by $5, from $50 to $45. This $5 decrease amounts to 5% of the unit price
of the item. Because the drop in the price of brass/steel is within the downward
limit established by the clause, the Government is entitled to receive a
decrease of $5 per unit.

EXAMPLE C. During contract performance, the unit price makeup of brass/steel
rises by $15, from $50 to $65. This $15 increase amount to 15% of the unit price
of the item. Because the rise in the price of brass/steel is greater than the
10% limit established by the clause, the contractor is entitled to receive an
increase of only $10 per unit.

EXAMPLE D. During contract performance, the unit price makeup of brass/steel
drops by $13, from $50 to $37. This $13 decrease amounts to

REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED PAGE 4 OF 40
CONTINUATION SHEET
PIIN/SIIN W52P1J-05-C-0015 MOD/AMD

NAME OF OFFEROR OR CONTRACTOR: VALENTEC SYSTEMS INC.

13% OF the unit price of the item. As there is no downward limit established by
the clause, the government is entitled to a decrease of $13 per unit.

Worldwide Ammunition-data Repository Program (WARP)

Once you have obtained an AEPS user name and password allowing entry to the
secured area of AEPS you can access the WARP application by scrolling to the
bottom of the list of AEPS applications. The WARP opening main page and all
subsequent pages contain Multiple navigational aids to guide you through the
process of inputting information necessary for creating a new ammunition data
card. An online users manual will provide additional help in the development of
an ammunition data card and it is recommended that you download and read the
users manual prior to inputting your initial data card. The user's manual also
contains screen shots, which depict what the inputter will see during the ADC
input process.

Ammunition Data Card Input

ADC input allows current contractors and government facilities the capability to
create, and submit for approval, ADCs which meet the former requirement of
MIL-STD-1168B. ADCs are automatically forwarded to the respective Governmental
Agency Responsible for Acceptance (GARA). The GARA, in most cases the Defense
Contract Management Agency (DCMA) Quality Assurance Representative (QAR),
reviews contractor input for accuracy and completeness, and after updating the
disposition code for the specific lot, submits the ADC to the database. The
inputter is granted access only to ADCs identified with its specific
manufacturing code, as identified in MIL-HDBK-1461A, Manufacturer's Symbols. The
use of previously inputted ADCs through the TEMPLATE option, significantly
reduces input effort, while increasing accuracy and consistency of data.

Email Notification

WARP provides immediate, automated notification to process participants when
actions are required. When the producer has completed an ADC submission, an
email message is routed to the GARA advising that an ADC awaits review and
approval. If the GARA approves the ADC as submitted, the ADC is released to the
base and an email, with approved data card, is routed back to the originator. If
the ADC requires modification or correction to be in accordance with
MIL-STD-1168B requirements, an email is provided to the ADC originator advising
that corrective action is required prior to approval.

Information Updates

It is important that the System Administrators are apprised when a producer
receives a new contract. The producer shall notify OSC-WARPSoc.army.mil within
30 days after receipt of a new contract. Information to be included shall be the
contract number, item, GARA, Manufacturer's identification symbol and the names
of the individuals who will be inputting ADCs ino the system. If you are a new
producer and do not have a Manufacturer's identification symbol, you can obtain
one by sending an email to OSC-WARPSosc.army.mil. The email must contain
manufacturer's name, address where performance of the contract will take place,
and a point of contact.

in the detailed plan for each process and operation parameter that controls or
influences characteristics identified as critical, special, or major which have
been deemed impractical for the application of SPC techniques. A pamphlet on
application of SPC for short production runs is available through the
Contracting Officer.

f. Statistical evidence in the form of control charts shall be prepared and
maintained for each process or operation parameter identified in the detailed
plan. These charts shall identify all corrective actions taken on statistical
signal. During production runs, control charts shall be maintained in such a
manner to assure product is traceable to the control charts. At the conclusion
of the production run, a collection of charts traceable to the product, shall be
maintained for a minimum of 3 years. The control charts shall be provided to the

both stability and capability, the Contractor -1- request, in writing, through
Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO) and Contracting Officer (CO) channels
to the Product Assurance and Test Directorate, that acceptance inspection or
testing performed in accordance with contract requirements be reduced or
eliminated. Upon approval by the CO, acceptance shall then be based upon the
accepted SPC plan, procedures, practices and the control charts.

h. The Government will not consider requests for reduction or elimination of
100% acceptance inspection and testing of parameters or characteristics
identified as critical in the technical data package, specifications or drawings
of this contract if any one of the following conditions exist:

(1) The existing process currently utilizes a fully automated, cost
effective, and sufficiently reliable method of 100% acceptance inspection or
testing for an attribute-type critical parameter or characteristic.

(2) The Contractor utilizes attribute SPC control chart methods for the
critical parameter or characteristic.

(3) The critical parameter or characteristic is a first order, single
point safety failure mode (nonconformance of the critical parameter or
characteristic in and of itself would cause a catastrophic failure).

i. The Government will only consider reduction or elimination of the 100%
acceptance inspection or test requirement for other critical parameters or
characteristics if either of the following conditions are met:

(1) The process is in a state of statistical control utilizing variable
control chart methods for the critical parameter or characteristic under control
and the process performance index (Cpk) is at least 2.0. The Contractor shall
maintain objective quality evidence through periodic audits that the process
performance index is being maintained for each production delivery.

(2) The critical parameter or characteristic is conclusively shown to be
completely controlled by one or more process or operation parameters earlier in
the process, and those parameters are in a state of statistical control
utilising variable data, and the product of the probability of the conformance
for each earlier parameter associated to the critical characteristic is better
then or equal to a value equivalent to that provided by a Cpk of at least 2.0.
The Contractor shall maintain objective quality evidence through periodic audits
that the process performance indexes are being maintained, for each production
delivery.

j. For characteristics other than critical, requests for reduction or
elimination of acceptance inspection and testing shall be considered when the
process performance index is greater than or equal to a Cpk of 1.33 for
variables data. Requests shall be considered for attributes data when the
percent beyond the specification limits is less than or equal to .003
(Cpk=1.33).

k. Process or operation parameters under reduced or eliminated inspection or
testing that undergo a break in production less than 6 months in length, may
continue to operate under reduced or eliminated inspection or testing provided
there has been no degradation below a Cpk of 1.33 (2.0 for criticals). Any break
in production greater than 6 months shall require resubmission of the request
for reduction or elimination of inspection or testing through the same channels
cited in paragraph g above.

l. Not used.

m. Immediately following a change to a process or operation parameter under
reduced or eliminated inspection, the process capability (Cp) or process
performance indexes (Cpk) shall be recalculated and documented for variable
data; the grand average fraction defective shall be recalculated for attribute
data. If any of these values have deteriorated, immediate notification shall be
made to the Government along with the associated documentation. Return to
original inspection and test requirements may be imposed as stipulated in
paragraph n below.

n. The Government reserves the right to withdraw authorization to reduce or
eliminate final acceptance inspection or testing and direct the Contractor to
return to original contract inspection or test procedures at any indication of
loss of process control or deterioration of quality.

the Contracting Officer, in either of which events the Contractor shall continue
performance; provided, however, that if the Contractor regards the direction or
communication as a change as described in paragraph (b) of this clause, notice
shall be given in the manner provided. All directions, communications,
interpretations, orders and similar actions of the SAR shall be reduced to
writing prosptly and copies furnished to the Contractor and to the contracting
Officer. The Contracting Officer shall promptly countermand any action which

by the Contracting Officer under this clause is included in the equitable
adjustment, the Contracting Officer shall have the right to prescribe the manner
of disposition of the property. The equitable adjustment shall not include
increased costs or time extensions for delay resulting from the contractor's

I-62 ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT-MATERIAL (BRASS/STEEL)

a) This clause applies to the unit price(s) for brass and steel only. The amount
of increases or decreases will be limited to the unit price(s) of the actual
material (brass/steel) only and shall not include such costs as labor, overhead,
G&A and profit. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer if, at any
time during contract performance, the unit price(s) for brass and/or steel

periods and will be considered independent of each other. The Contractor shall
furnish this notice within 60 days after the increase or decrease, or within any
additional period that the Contracting Officer may approve in writing, but not
later than the date of final payment under this contract. The notice shall
include the Contractor's proposal for an adjustment in the contract unit
price(s) to be negotiated under paragraph (b) of this clause, and shall include,

adjustment proposal.

(b) Promptly after the Contracting Officer receives the notice and data under
paragraph (a) of this clause, the Contracting Officer and the Contractor shall
negotiate a price adjustment in the contract unit price(s) and its effective
date. However, the Contracting officer may postpone the negotiations until an
accumulation of increases and decreased in unit price(s) of brass and/or steel
results in an adjustment allowable under paragraph (c)(3) of this clause. The
contracting officer shall modify this contract (1) to include the price
adjustment and its effective date and (2) to revise the unit price(s) of
material (brass/steel) as proposed to reflect the increases or decreases
resulting from the adjustment. The Contractor shall continue performance pending
agreement or, or determination of, any adjustment and its effective date.

(1) Any adjustment shall be limited to the effect on unit price(s) of the
increase or decreases in the unit price(s) for brass and/or steel. There shall
be no adjustment for-

(i) Supplies or services for which the production cost is not affected by
such changes;

(ii) Changes in unit price(s) other than those proposed; or

(iii) Changes in the quantities of material (brass/steel) used from those
proposed for each item.

(2) No upward adjustment shall apply to supplies or services that are
required to be delivered or perforated before the effective dace of the
adjustment, unless the contractor's failure to deliver or perform according to
the delivery schedule results from causes beyond the Contractor's control and
without its fault or negligence, within the meaning of the Default clause.

(3) There shall be no adjustment for any change in the unit price(s) for
material (brass/steel) which would not result in a net change of at least 3
percent of the then-current total contract price. This limitation shall not
apply, however, if after final delivery of all contract line items, either party
requests an adjustment under paragraph (b) of this clause. If the contractor
anticipates such an adjustment will be required they shall inform the
Contracting Officer no later than 90 days prior to final delivery during any
performance period.

(4) The aggregate of the increases in any contract unit price made under this
contract shall not exceed 10 percent of the original unit price of material
during any performance period of the contract. There is no percentage limitation
