(a) Time is of the essence, and deliveries shall be made both in quantities and at times specified in Buyer’s delivery schedules. Where delivery schedules are not provided, Seller shall deliver Goods in such quantities and at such times as Buyer directs in shipping releases.

(b) Buyer shall not be required to make payment for Goods which are (i) delivered in advance of delivery schedules or shipping releases, or (ii) delivered to Buyer in excess of quantities specified in Buyer’s delivery schedules or shipping releases.

6.
Expedited Shipments:
Without limiting any other rights or remedies that Buyer may have under this Contract, by law or in equity, if Seller fails to meet Buyer’s delivery requirements and Buyer requires a more expeditious method of transportation for the Goods than the transportation method originally specified by Buyer, Seller shall, at Buyer’s option, ship the Goods as expeditiously as possible at Seller’s sole expense.

7. 
Changes:
(a) Buyer reserves the right at any time, by written direction to Seller, to: (i) make changes in the designs, materials, requirements, drawings, and/or specifications of the Goods, (ii) in quantities, place of delivery, shipment and/or packing methods, (iii) incorporate additional provisions that Buyer deems necessary in order to comply with customer requirements, or (iv) otherwise change the scope of the work covered by this Contract, including work with respect to such matters as inspection, testing or quality control. Upon receipt of Buyer’s direction, Seller agrees to promptly make such changes.

(b)  Any  difference  in  price  or  time  for  performance  (increase  or  decrease) resulting from such changes shall entitle Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, to an equitable adjustment (increase or decrease) in the price or time for performance or both. Any claim for adjustment by Seller must be submitted in writing to Buyer’s Representative and shall include particulars of the claim and supporting cost data, within thirty (30) days after receipt of Buyer’s directed change. Any adjustment in price or time for performance, or both, shall be set out in a written amendment signed by both parties.

10. 
Nonconforming Goods:
Seller acknowledges that Buyer may not perform incoming inspections of the Goods, and waives any rights to require Buyer to conduct such inspections.  To the extent Buyer rejects Goods as nonconforming, the quantities under this Contract will automatically be reduced, unless Buyer otherwise notifies Seller. Seller will not replace quantities so reduced without a new contract or schedule from Buyer.  Nonconforming Goods will be held by Buyer in accordance with Seller’s instructions at Seller’s risk.  Seller’s failure to provide written instructions within ten (10) calendar days, or such shorter period as may be commercially reasonable under the circumstances, after notice of nonconformity, shall entitle Buyer, at Buyer’s option, to return goods to Seller at Seller's cost or charge Seller for storage and handling or to dispose of the Goods without liability to Seller. Payment for nonconforming Goods shall not constitute an acceptance of such Goods, or limit or impair Buyer’s right to assert any legal or equitable remedy, or relieve Seller’s responsibility for latent defects.

Seller shall initiate prompt containment and corrective action on notification of nonconforming goods.   Seller shall respond within forty-eight (48) hours of notification to inform buyer of goods already shipped to the buyer and status of future shipments. Seller shall not ship any additional nonconforming material without formal authorization from Buyer.     The seller shall submit a formal response within 30 days to any Formal Supplier Corrective Action Requests directed to Seller by GDLS Quality.  The response shall include: cause of defect, corrective action taken to prevent recurrence of the deficiency and the effective date or break in point of the corrective action.

11. 
Force Majeure:
(a) Neither party shall be liable for any excess costs if any delay or failure to perform arises solely out of causes that (i) could not be reasonably foreseen and prevented by the party, (ii) are beyond the reasonable control of the party, and (iii) occur without the fault or negligence of the party. Such causes may include, but  are  not  limited  to,  acts  of  God,  actions  by  any  governmental  authority (whether valid or invalid), fires, floods, windstorms, explosions, riots, natural disasters, wars, sabotage, or court injunction or order (“Force Majeure”).
 
(b) In order for the provisions of this Article to apply to a particular Force Majeure, the affected party must (i) use its best efforts to minimize the Force Majeure, and (ii) provide written notice of such Force Majeure to the other party within ten (10) days after the beginning of such Force Majeure.  The written notice shall include the facts giving rise to the Force Majeure, the anticipated duration of the Force Majeure, and a proposed work-around plan to minimize the impact.  The Seller shall implement any work-around plan approved by Buyer.
 
(c) If a Force Majeure which meets the criteria in (a) above is caused by Seller’s subcontractor(s), and the Seller has not contributed to the Force Majeure, Seller shall not be liable for excess costs provided that Seller has taken all reasonable action to obtain the Goods from other sources in sufficient time to permit Seller to comply with its obligations under this Contract.

TRADE CONTROLS
 
It is the policy of GDLS-C to conduct its business in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.  Further, it is the policy of GDLS-C to only conduct business with suppliers who are registered with their government to participate in activities related to the defense industry; have proven not to require registration (i.e. commercial material, technology and/or services); are exempt from registration by their government but authorized to participate in defense activities (i.e. government agencies); or are not able to register as their government does not have a registration program (export licenses may still be required for the export of defense articles).

As such, all bidders are required to comply with the trade regulations as set forth by their country’s government agencies responsible for export/import authorization and compliance, and to advise GDLS-C of any and all restrictions that may be imposed upon GDLS-C.

End Use Information:

Suppliers to General Dynamics Land Systems - Canada provide products and services supporting armoured vehicles destined for customers worldwide. End use information is necessary to determine the requirement for, and the completion of, export and import permit/license applications. For reference, the text of the Buyer’s purchase order, or Letter of Intent to purchase, provides an end use statement to significantly reduce the requirement to complete individual End User Certificates.
 
Flowdown:
 
In the performance of any ensuing purchase order, Suppliers are required to flowdown end use information as well as the requirement for export controls compliance to their sub-tier suppliers. Suppliers are required to provide proof of retransfer authorization to GDLS-C as applicable.
 
This sub-section is applicable to US bidders only: (information for Canadian Bidders begins on Page 3)

This section provides information to those suppliers who are manufacturers, brokers and/or importers/exporters of defense articles, to include technical data, and defense services subject to trade controls.
 
Jurisdiction of Parts:

The export and import of articles out of and into the United States, including technical data and defense services, may be subject to the jurisdiction of the US Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC); the US Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS); or the US Department of Justice, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE).

Section A, Annex A2
Rev 11/21/2008
 
DDTC, in accordance with the Arms Export Control Act (AECA) and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), is the organization within the US Department of State charged with controlling the permanent and temporary export and temporary import of defense articles, technical data, and defense services covered by the United States Munitions List (USML).
 
BIS is responsible for implementing and enforcing the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), which regulate the export and re-export of "dual-use" commodities, software and technology (those that have both commercial and military or proliferation applications); however, purely commercial items without an obvious military use are also subject to the EAR. Export of items not on the USML requires authorization by BIS either by exemption or export license.

BATFE is responsible for the permanent import of defense articles, as enumerated on the US Munitions Import List (USMIL) into the United States.  Technical data is not included on the USMIL and permanent imports of data do not require an import authorization.

It is the Supplier’s responsibility to identify to GDLS-C the jurisdiction of the goods they provide to GDLS-C – specifically if the goods are controlled under the ITAR or the EAR.  The policy for designating and determining defense articles is set forth at 22 CFR 120.3.  The intended use of the article or service after its export is not relevant in determining whether the article or service is subject to the controls of the ITAR.  Any item enumerated on the USML is deemed to be a defense article or service and subject to the ITAR.  It is important to note that the terms are defined broadly:

Ÿ
A  defense  article  is  any  good,  software  or  piece  of  technical  data  that  is  designed, developed, configured, adapted or modified for a military application (22 CFR 120.3, 120.6)
Ÿ
A defense service includes the furnishing of any assistance, including training, to foreign persons in the design, development, engineering, manufacture, production, assembly, testing, repair, maintenance, modification, operation, demilitarization, distribution, processing, or use of defense articles (22 CFR 120.6)

If there is doubt as to whether an article or service is in fact included on the USML, the Supplier shall follow the Commodity Jurisdiction procedure set forth at 22 CFR 120.4.
 
Registration for US Bidders
 
Any person who engages in the manufacture, brokering or exporting of defense articles or furnishing of defense services must be registered as a manufacturer and/or broker with the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls. Manufacturers who do not engage in exporting must also register with DDTC.
 
There is no registration requirement for manufactures/exporters of goods under the jurisdiction of the US Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS).
 
The requirements for registration are set forth in the ITAR at 22 CFR 22.  In addition to paying a registration fee, the regulations require that you provide the US Department of State with specific information about your business, including such information as:
Ÿ
The defense articles you manufacture and/or sell;
Ÿ
The defense services you provide;
Ÿ
The officers and directors of your company;

Ÿ
Whether your company, or any of its officers or directors, have been convicted of violating the Export Control Laws of the United States; and,
Ÿ
Whether your company is owned or controlled by a foreign company.
 
As these regulations can be quite complex, you may wish to seek the advice of counsel or of an expert consultant to assist you in this process.
 
Proof of Registration and US Export Authorization for US Bidders:
 
As  part  of  your  response  to  this  RFP/RFQ/Purchase  Contract,  you  are  required  to provide either your company’s DDTC registration number (per 22 CFR 122), a statement that your company has determined no such registration is required, or that your company has applied for registration. Use the form on page 6 of Annex A2.
 
You must also provide confirmation no later than 30 days prior to registration expiry that you have made the appropriate renewal applications to the US Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls.   You must also provide confirmation to Buyer once renewal has been granted.  Again, use the form on page 6 of Annex F2.
 
Licensing for US Bidders
 
Registration does not automatically confer export rights or privileges, and is essentially a precondition to the issuance of any export/import authorization. Once registered, your business must request and obtain authorization from DDTC for every permanent and temporary export and temporary import of defense articles and/or services. This authorization can be in the form of a license, agreement or exemption.
 
Export of items not on the USML requires authorization by BIS either by exemption or export license.  BIS has determined that certain items may be exported to certain countries, for certain uses, by any exporter.  Such a published determination is an exemption.  It is not necessary to apply for permission to export under an exemption.  Items under BIS jurisdiction that are not authorized for export under an exemption require an export license for export.  Export licenses are handled on a case-by-case basis and require individual license applications.
 
Again, the regulations in this area are quite complex, and you may wish to seek the advice of an outside expert if your company does not have the necessary expertise in house.
 
Requirements for successful bidders:
 
1.
If your company has determined that a license is not required under either the ITAR or the EAR, and that an exemption(s) will authorize all deliverables, provide notice stating applicable ITAR and/or EAR exemptions to Buyer within 30 days of receipt of the purchase order. Please note that the Canadian Exemption (ITAR) will be accepted as a valid exemption only in limited circumstances.
 
2.
If your company has determined one or more export license(s) and/or agreement(s) are required from the US government to export the deliverables, forward evidence that application has been made for these approvals (e.g., the license/agreement application numbers) to Buyer within 30 days of receipt of the purchase order.

3.
Within 15 days of receipt of US government export approvals at your company, and in any case prior to first shipment of deliverables, forward copies of the approvals to Buyer. Buyer will in turn, and as required by Canadian law, attach your license(s) or exemption citation(s) to Buyer’s application for Canadian export permit(s). You are further required to advise Buyer prior to shipment of parts if an export approval imposes special restrictions on use of a part (e.g. serialization).
 
4.
You are further required to notify your Buyer in the event that an export approval is expiring, has been suspended or revoked.
 
Notice of Name Change
 
At any time, and to the maximum extent practicable, Seller will immediately notify Buyer of any pending  or  completed  acquisitions,  mergers,  and/or  name/address  changes  regardless  of cause.  Seller will provide details explaining cause.  This requirement applies regardless of whether Seller is required to be registered with the DDTC.
 
The remainder of Annex A2 applies to Canadian bidders.
 
This sub-section is applicable to CANADIAN bidders only:
 
This section provides information to those suppliers who are manufacturers, brokers and/or importers/exporters of defense articles, to include technical data, and defense services subject to Canadian Export and Import Regulations.
 
The Defence Production Act is administered by the Minister of Public Works and Government Services Canada for the regulation of access, in Canada, to controlled goods listed in the Export Control List (ECL) within the Export and Import Permits Act (EIPA).     In order to examine or possess controlled goods and/or technology in Canada, the entity (business or individual) must be registered with the Controlled Goods Directorate (CGD).  This includes individuals, partnerships, corporations and other business enterprises.
 
The Export and Import Permits Act regulates the export and import of strategic and other goods out of, and into, Canada.  Export permits cannot be issued unless the entity (business or individual) is CGD-registered.  The Canadian Export and Import Permits Act authorized the Canadian Government to establish an Import Control List (ICL) and an Export Control List (ECL) to control the movement of goods. The Export and Import Controls Bureau, within the Department of Foreign Affair and International Trade Canada (DFAIT), authorizes the import and export of goods requiring permits.  An export permit is required before an item included on the ECL may be exported from Canada to any destination, with the exception (in most cases) of the United States.
 
Registration for CANADIAN Bidders
 
The first step you must take is to determine your need to be registered with Public Works and Government Services Canada under the CGD. The requirements for registration are set forth on the CGD web site at http://www.cgp.gc.ca/cgdweb/text/index_e.htm.  There is no fee to register; however, there may be internal costs for complying with the Defense Production Act.

Section A, Annex A4
Rev 3/1/2003
 
General instructions (Applicable to all MSDSs submitted to Buyer)
 
Language
The MSDS must be provided in the language of the country of origin.  A copy of the MSDS must also be available in English.
 
Readability
The MSDS must be legible.  Font, point type, margin width and format for an MSDS must allow for quality reproduction, copying, and faxing.
 
Blanks/Negative Responses
Blank data fields are not acceptable as a negative response.  Terms like “not applicable (NA)”, “not established (NE)”, “not available”, “none”, “none known”, “unknown”, “not determined”, etc., may be accepted in place of data on the MSDS or addendum.  If abbreviations are used for these terms, a legend should be provided explaining them.  For Canadian use, only “not applicable” (not app) or “not available” (not ava) can be used as a negative response for a Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) controlled product.
 
Full Disclosure
Ingredients listed in Section 2 or on the addendum must add up to at least 100%.   (See Section 2 of this document for details.)
 
Confidentiality Policy
Any  MSDS,  attachment  or  addendum  marked “confidential”  “proprietary”  “trade secret”  or words to that effect will be returned to the supplier or destroyed.  Material marked “for Buyer’s use only” will be accepted but will not constitute a secrecy agreement on the part of the Buyer. Buyer does not sign secrecy agreements.  (See Section 2 of this document for guidelines on protecting trade secret information.)
 
Addendum/Addenda
It is no longer necessary to fill out a Buyer MSDS form.  Instead, your company’s MSDS may be submitted along with a separate page listing any remaining data required by BUYER.   It may be called an addendum, attachment, additional information or words to that effect.  This addendum, however, must be clearly labeled with the trade name and should be dated.
 
Regulatory Compliance
All suppliers are expected to comply with local, regional, national and international regulations. For example, the US and Canada maintain listings (Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA) and Domestic Substance List (DSL), respectively) of chemicals approved for commercial commerce within their borders that may require usage reports and/or are restricted in some fashion. Suppliers must include this information on the MSDS.   Furthermore, the MSDS or addendum must include:
• 
A listing of all ingredients constituting 1% or more of the product
A listing of all ingredients constituting 0.1% or more of the product that are recognized as carcinogens
Written  statements  of  compliance  to  all  local,  regional,  national  and  international regulations for all non-listed ingredients constituting less than 1% of the product

Section A, Annex A4
Rev 3/1/2003
 
(See Section 2 of this document for details.)
 
Dates (Policy & Definitions)
The MSDS date of preparation or effective/revision date must be less than 3 years old.
(See Section 1 for exceptions to this rule.)
Date of Preparation - The date the MSDS was prepared or originated.  This could also be the effective/revision date.
Effective/Revision Date - The date the MSDS is considered to be as complete and accurate as possible in describing the product as provided and relevant information such as manufacturer/supplier name, address and phone number.   The effective and/or revision date will change as the product formulation changes or when new data on health, safety, environmental impact, regulations, toxicology or handling information becomes available.
• 
Print Date - The print date will not be considered the effective date.
 
Essential versus Optional Information
The following 16 section format, based on the ISO 11014 and ANSI Z400.1 standards, is the preferred format for an MSDS, but other formats are acceptable.
 
Those items identified with a circled star (µ) represent minimum requirements that must be met for all materials. Those items not identified with µ are not required, but are desirable.
 
Data sheets and addenda that do not meet these requirements will be labeled non-compliant and remain so as long as these key areas of information are not provided.  In these cases, BUYER sites will be encouraged to find alternate materials from compliant suppliers.  Suppliers are strongly encouraged to supply all the other remaining information but will not be labeled as non-compliant if that information is incomplete.
 
The following are section-by-section instructions for Sections 1 - 16 of the MSDSs.
 
SECTION 1 - Product and Company Identification
µ
1.
Indicate the product name or number as it appears on the label.
µ
2.
Provide appropriate synonyms that apply to the product.
µ
3.
Indicate the name of the manufacturer as it appears on the label. If the supplier is different from the manufacturer, then clearly identify the responsible party(ies) preparing or distributing the MSDS who could provide additional information on chemical components and/or emergency procedures. Include complete addresses and phone numbers for each party. Indicate the specific nature of the phone numbers such as information, fax, emergency, national emergency response lines (e.g., CHEMTREC - Chemical Transportation Emergency Center USA, NRC - National Response Center USA, CCOHS - Canadian Center for Occupational Health and Safety).
 
4.
Indicate the preparer’s name and title and include a phone number if it is different from the emergency or information phone number.
µ
5.
Clearly, indicate the date of preparation or the revision/effective date of the MSDS. If the date is more than three years old and no changes have been made to the data sheet (e.g. area code, address, verbiage) or the product, then a written statement with a current date may be submitted and it will be considered the effective date in lieu of revising the document.

SECTION 2 - Composition/Information on Ingredients
µ
1.
Buyer requires 100% disclosure of all ingredients found in a product. This means an ingredient present at 1% or greater (0.1% for carcinogens) must be listed, even if it is generally considered non-hazardous (e.g., water).In addition, ingredients present at less than 1% in the product must be listed if those ingredients would be present at 1% or greater in the “dry” product. (For example, if zinc oxide is present at 0.7% in the product as shipped, but is present at 1.2% after applying the product to a substrate, this ingredient must be listed.) If a CAS (Chemical Abstract Services) registry number exists for an ingredient, it must be listed along with the proper chemical name or common chemical name or synonym on the MSDS or addendum. Exceptions to CAS number disclosure for trade secret ingredients may be granted if a good chemical description is provided (see below for an explanation of a “good chemical description”).
     
   
If a CAS registry number of an ingredient is not available because the item is not a discrete chemical that can be represented by a chemical formula or is a mixture where the identity of individual components may be unknown or may vary, then a good chemical description must be provided.  Examples of good chemical descriptions include, but are not limited to, those shown in the following table:

2.
Indicate  the  percentage  of  each  ingredient  in  the  product  and  identify  if  the  value represents percent by weight or percent by volume.  Ranges should be within ñ5% of the true value for all components (both hazardous and non-hazardous).  Exceptions will be made in those situations where a ñ5% range will not accurately describe the product (e.g., when the base oils vary from batch to batch depending on crude oil availability).  For a WHMIS controlled product for Canadian use, ranges must comply, at a minimum, with WHMIS regulations.  Summation of exact percentages must equal 100%.  Summation of maximum ranges must equal or exceed 100%. Summation of minimum ranges must equal or be less than 100%.  Carcinogens and chemicals subject to national reporting requirements by CAS registry number (e.g., SARA 313, NPRI) should be given in exact percentages.  For non-carcinogenic ingredients present in the product at <1%, but still provided on the MSDS, T for trace will be accepted in place of a numeric value (for carcinogenic, biocide, flame retardant, and pigment ingredients, T may be used for items < 0.1%). One item on the list may be listed as “balance” or “remainder”.
 
If the ingredient is present in the product at less than 1% and is not a hazardous substance, carcinogen, or known to cause toxicological problems in and of itself, or during processing, but is still provided on the MSDS, then a functional description such as “additive” will be acceptable.
   
In addition, similar items may be grouped (e.g., “colorants”), even if their total is greater than 1% (0.1% for appropriate chemicals), provided that no one chemical is present in the product at > 1%.
µ
3.

SECTION E

CANADIAN INDUSTRIAL AND REGIONAL BENEFITS REQUIREMENTS

An important factor in the evaluation of proposals is the offeror's commitment for Canadian Industrial and Regional Benefits (IRBs).

The Buyer has made substantial commitments to the Canadian Government in the area of Industrial and Regional Benefits. We will be making commitments in the areas of:

 
 
Canadian Content - both direct and indirect
 
 
Regional Distribution:
 
-
Atlantic Region
 
-
Quebec Region
 
-
Western Region
 
-
Northern Ontario

 
Small Business Participation

As guidance in the formulation of your IRB proposal, the following is our philosophy and approach to establishing Canadian IRBs.

1.
Canadian participation will equal, as a minimum, 100% of the contract value through work performed on the contract or through other activities.

2.
Our objective is to establish long-term supplier relationships that extend beyond the current contract. Our approach is to select companies that we can use in the export market.

3.
To survive in the export market, our suppliers must be cost and quality competitive.

4.
IRB transactions must make business sense; otherwise, they cannot be sustained in the long term.

5.
We ensure that our major subcontractors, both Canadian and foreign, provide IRBs that are commensurate with the value they receive from the contract.  They use the same approach as we do in establishing long-term relationships that extend beyond the current contract.   As a result, we allow our subcontractors to make their own business decisions as to how IRBs will be met.

6.
We support the approach of spreading benefits across Canada and our objective is to provide a balanced commitment to all regions.

xii.
Interest costs associated with Letters of Credit or other financial instruments to support IRB Investments are not eligible for IRB consideration.

 
4)
Except in the case of goods related to the current project or any versions thereof wherever sold, where any IRB Indirect Transaction is for the purchase of goods that are essentially similar to those acquired from Canada by the same purchaser prior to the effective date of the contract then in determining the Canadian Content of the IRB Transaction, the Industrial and Regional Benefit Authority shall include only the increase that the IRB Transaction will provide over the average amount spent by the purchaser for those essentially similar goods during the previous three year period.

1.2
ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR IRB TRANSACTIONS

 
1)
Each IRB Transaction must be one, which was clearly and demonstrably brought about by either the Subcontractor’s efforts or the efforts of one of the Subcontractor’s Eligible Parties as a result of the specific project against which the transaction is being claimed. It must not be one, which probably would have been entered into if the project had not existed. It should be noted that the Subcontractor must provide evidence of causality in situations where IRB commitments are flowed down to Subcontractors. In these cases, the Subcontractor must prove that the recipient Canadian company would not have achieved the export sales as a result of its own marketing efforts. In any case, the Subcontractor is 100% responsible for IRB Commitments, regardless of flow down to Subcontractors. In addition, to demonstrate causality to this Contract/project, Contractor approval for a proposed IRB Transaction must be obtained prior to the Subcontractor making public announcements, media or press releases related to the proposed business activities. Failure to do so will result in the rejection of the business activity as an IRB under this Contract.

 
2)
Where an Indirect IRB Transaction is for the purchase of goods or services that are similar to those that the purchaser has acquired in Canada prior to the effective date, then in determining the Canadian Content Value of the IRB Transaction there shall be included only the increase that the transaction will provide over the average amount spent by that purchaser for those goods or services after program award specified by the Buyer, unless it can be clearly shown that such purchases would have been less than such average without the intervention of the Contractor.

 
3)
Timing is an important factor in the determination of eligibility of individual transactions. Normally, IRB Transactions must be implemented after the date of signing of the Prime Contract and should be concluded by the completion date of the Contract. However, if a long-term business relationship can be developed but exceeds the end of the Contract, then the Contractor may consider a longer performance period for that specific transaction.

4)
As  per  the  definition  stated  above  in  this  Contract,  IRB  Transactions  must  be undertaken by an eligible party as defined in the Contract.

1.3
REPORTS

The Supplier commits to report twice per year – March 1 and September 1 showing progress in each of the above types of transactions.

1.4
DAMAGES

In  the  event  that  there  should  be  a  shortfall  or  failure  to  meet  the  Canadian  Content requirement, then liquidated damages will be assessed at 10% of the shortfall.  In the event that the commitment in the prime contract is satisfied and no liquidated damages are payable, then the  subcontractor  will  not  be  held  liable  for  the  liquidated  damages  resulting  from  a subcontractor shortfall.

1.5
Examination of Records by Canadian Government

 
1)
The Subcontractor shall keep proper records and documentation relating to the determination of the Canadian Content of the work provided under this Contract, including invoices and proofs of payment. The Subcontractor shall not, without the prior written consent of the Contractor, dispose of any such records or documentation until the expiration of two (2) years after final payment of this Contract, seven (7) years after the claim against the transaction or until settlement of all outstanding claims and disputes, whichever is earlier. All such records and documentation shall at all times during, the aforementioned retention period be open to verification, inspection and examination by the Contractor or his/her delegate, who may make copies thereof and take extracts there from.

 
2)

The OM Issues Report shall outline the specifics of a pending issue for all high-risk LRUs or component parts. A component shall be considered to be high risk if it is on the Obsolescence Management Candidates List and/or it will become obsolete within one year or less. The OM Issues Report shall be prepared in Subcontractor’s format and shall be delivered to GDLS-C in accordance with the Issue Date given in Section 4 above and will provide supporting data and recommendations as follows:

 
a. 
A detailed description of the industry development leading to the obsolescence and the impact this will have on Equipment supportability and/or availability.
 
 
b. 
In most cases, a minimum of three (3) options outlined below and their analysis will be considered. When the Subcontractor considers that option i. or ii. Is the best option and that option iii. would require considerable effort to develop or would cause unnecessary delay in the submission of the OM Issues Report, the Subcontractor shall only submit  options i. and ii. with the initial OM Issues Report. Option iii. will be implemented and fully explored only as and when required by GDLS-C. The analysis shall include, as appropriate, for each option the impact on all ILS elements as referenced in GDLS-C Form 4525 B (Supportability Requirements Form), including the impact on support equipment and the impact to spares and R&O (if applicable), and an estimated cost of each option.
