(2) The term "base market price" means the preselected market price for an item as published on October 1, 2001. In the event one or more applicable market prices are not (or were not) published on the date shown, then the term "base market price" means the preselected market price for an item as published on the date nearest in time prior to the date show.

(4) The term "date of delivery" means the date product is received on a truck-by-truck basis. (5) The term "calendar week" means a consecutive seven-day period, beginning with whichever day of the week is specified in (c) below. (c) ADJUSTMENTS. The Contracting Officer shall issue a modification to the contract to reflect any price change pursuant to this clause. The contract price shall be modified at three month periods after the date of award. The contract price will not be modified during the three month period unless the market price increases or decreases by 10% or more of the current contract price.

If the parties fail to agree on an appropriate substitute, the matter shall be resolved in accordance with the Disputes clause of the contract. (4) FAILURE TO DELIVER. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this clause, 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 the clause Default 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 pursuant to these economic price adjustment provisions shall not exceed 55 percent of the award price in any applicable program year (whether a single year or a multiyear program), except as provided hereafter. (i) If at any time the Contractor has reason to believe that within the near future a price adjustment under the provisions of this clause will be required that will exceed the current contract ceiling price for any item, 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 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, until the Contracting Officer issues either a contract modification to raise the ceiling or written notification that the ceiling will not be raised.
