(2) Established catalog price (also commonly known as posted price) is the price with which the award price is
to fluctuate. The established catalog price is a price for a commercial item sold in substantial quantities to the

discount is offered in substantial quantities to the general public.

(2) EVIDENCE OF CHANGE IN CONTRACTOR’S ESTABLISHED CATALOG (POSTED) PRICE. The price
change notification shall include written documentation sufficient to justify such change. If the change in the
Contractor’s established catalog price results from a change in a supplier’s price, the Contractor shall include a
copy of the supplier’s notice or invoice which clearly shows the supplier’s name, the increase/decrease in price or
invoice price, the applicable product, and the effective date of the change. In the event the Contracting Officer
determines the justification insufficient to warrant such a change, the Contractor will be notified within three
working days of DLA Energy’s receipt of the price change notification. The Contractor shall continue performance
under this contract until the situation is resolved in accordance with paragraph (d), Disputes of the CONTRACT
TERMS AND CONDITIONS – COMMERCIAL ITEMS clause of this contract.
(3) CALCULATIONS. The prices payable under this contract shall be the award price increased or decreased by
the amount that the established catalog price increased or decreased through the date of delivery. The amount of
increase or decrease in the award price shall be used on the same number of cents, or fraction thereof, that the
established catalog price increases or decreases per like unit of measure.
(4) NOTIFICATIONS. Any resultant price changes shall be provided via notification through contract
modifications and/or postings to the DLA Energy web page at http://www.desc.dla.mil under the heading Vendor

(ii) DECREASES. If the Contractor fails to notify the Contracting Officer of any decrease in the established catalog
price within the allotted 15-day period, such decrease shall apply to deliveries made on or after the effective date
of such decrease. However, if any overpayment is made to the Contractor as a result of the Contractor’s failure to
give timely notice to the Contracting Officer of any decrease in the established catalog price, the Contractor shall
be charged interest on such overpayment from the date of the overpayment to the date of reimbursement by the
Contractor for the overpayment in accordance with paragraph (d), Disputes, of the CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS – COMMERCIAL ITEMS clause of this contract.
(iii) INCREASES. Any increase in unit price as a result of an increase in the established catalog price shall apply
to all deliveries made on or after the effective date of the price change issued by the Contracting Officer. However,
no notification incorporating an increase in a contract unit price shall be executed pursuant to this contract
provision until the increase has been verified by the Contracting Officer.
(4) FAILURE TO DELIVER. Notwithstanding any other conditions of this contract provision, no upward
adjustment shall apply to product scheduled under the contract to be delivered before the effective date of the
adjustment, unless the Contractor’s failure to deliver according to the delivery schedule results from causes
beyond the Contractor’s control and without its fault or negligence,within the meaning of paragraphs (f), Excusable
Delays, and (m), Termination for Cause, of the CONTRACT TERMS AND
CONDITIONS – COMMERCIAL ITEMS clause of this contract, or is the result of an allocation made in accordance
with the terms of the ALLOCATION clause of this contract, in which case the contract shall be amended to make
an equitable extension of the delivery schedule.
(5) UPWARD CEILING ON ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT. The Contractor agrees that the total increase in
any contract unit price shall not exceed _330_ percent of the award price, except as provided hereafter:

the Contractor shall promptly notify the Contracting Officer in writing of the expected increase. The notification
shall include a revised ceiling the Contractor believes is sufficient to permit completion of remaining contract
performance, along with an appropriate explanation and documentation as required by the Contracting Officer.
(ii) If an actual increase in the established catalog price would raise a contract unit price for an item above the
current ceiling, the Contractor shall have no obligation under this contract to fill pending or future orders for such
item, as of the effective date of the increase, unless the Contracting Officer issues a contract modification to raise
the ceiling. If the contract ceiling will not be raised, the Contracting Officer shall so promptly notify the Contractor in
writing.

representatives shall have the right to examine the Contractor's books, records, documents, and other data the
