- Description
- BACKGROUND The Emergency Economic Stability Act of 2009 ("EESA"), Pub. Law No. 110-343, EESA created the Troubled Asset Relief Program ("TARP") and authorized the Department of the Treasury ("Treasury") to purchase, manage, and sell troubled assets under section 101, and to guarantee such assets under section 102. Additionally, section 121 of EESA, as amended, which incorporated selected provisions of the Inspector General Act of 1978, 5 U.S.C. App. 3, created the Office of the Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program ("SIGTARP") as an independent agency within Treasury responsible to conduct, supervise, and coordinate audits and investigations of any actions taken under EESA. SCOPE SIGTARP has the need for legal services to augment its existing capabilities. SIGTARP will draw upon the resources of outside counsel ("Contractor") when needed, as issues arise. The Contractor selected shall have demonstrable qualifications to handle all of the following legal services: (A) Analyzing and advising SIGTARP with respect to rights and obligations under various operating and other agreements entered into by or on behalf of TARP participants, vendors, Treasury or other agencies involved in TARP. (B) Analyzing and advising SIGTARP with regard to corporate law issues, including but not limited to formation, acquisitions, sales, joint ventures, mergers, governance, conflicts of interest issues, public offerings, reorganization, and taxation. (C) Analyzing and advising SIGTARP with respect to banking law issues, including but not limited to charters, holding companies, reporting requirements, fund transfers, credit facilities, structured derivative products, and capitalization. (D) Analyzing and advising SIGTARP with regard to securities law issues, including but not limited to issuance, registration, purchase and sale, underwriting, proxies, and fiduciary duties. The Bureau of the Public Debt, on behalf of SIGTARP plans to solicit offers for the award of one contract as a Small Business Set-Aside. The selection will be conducted pursuant to FAR Part 19, using full and open competitive acquisition procedures. The Contract awarded is intended to provide SIGTARP with specialized legal expertise to support current and future requirements for a term of up to three years.
