Corrosion removal and treatment of affected areas will be accomplished in accordance with the NASC overhaul manual specifications (or best commercial practices if not addressed by the NASC overhaul manual). 4.2 Corrosion Issues Coast Guard aircraft operate primarily in a saltwater environment and are subject to corrosion. Corrosion is expected on equipment to be overhauled under this order. During inspection and functional test, the presence of corrosion in a component or subcomponent thereof shall constitute reason for a more thorough disassembly and inspection. Should corrosion be found, disassembly shall be made only to the extent necessary to remove corrosion or replace the part(s) affected.

Upon agreement of an incremental charge and issuance of a order modification to reflect this change, the service bulletin shall be incorporated into each subsequent component received at the overhaul facility if the service bulletin has not already been incorporated. When service bulletin incorporation changes the part number of the component contained in this schedule, the new part number and NSN (if applicable) will be added to the order. 4.7 Replacement Parts The offeror shall provide all necessary parts, material, labor, tooling, repair manuals, test equipment and facilities to evaluate and overhaul the components for the Coast Guard fleet of MH-60T helicopters, as necessary to conform with the requirements of this SOW at the firm-fixed-pricing established in the order schedule.

If a foreign incorporated entity acquires directly or indirectly substantially all of the properties of a domestic corporation or partnership during the 4-year period beginning on the date which is 2 years before the ownership requirements of subsection (b)(2) are met, such actions shall be treated as pursuant to a plan. (3) Certain transfers disregarded. The transfer of properties or liabilities (including by contribution or distribution) shall be disregarded if such transfers are part of a plan a principal purpose of which is to avoid the purposes of this section.

(2) Rights labeled as stocks shall not be treated as stocks whenever it is deemed appropriate to do so to reflect the present value of the transaction or to disregard transactions whose recognition would defeat the purpose of Section 835.
