A. The initial term of this Contract (hereinafter called the "Base Term") shall commence on or

about the date specified above, on the specific date set forth in the Authority’s written

ITB - Revised 6/2/15 2405368.v1

notice of bid acceptance, and unless otherwise terminated, revoked or extended in

accordance with the provisions hereof, shall expire (Expiration Date) as estimated above.

B. The Authority shall have the right to extend this Contract for additional period(s)

(hereinafter referred to as the "Option Period(s)") following the Expiration Date, upon the

same terms and conditions subject only to adjustments of charges, if applicable to this

Contract, as may be hereinafter provided in the paragraph entitled "Price Adjustments

during Option Periods". If the Authority shall elect to exercise the Option(s) to extend this

Contract, then, no later than thirty (30) days prior to the Expiration Date, the Authority

shall send a notice that it is extending the Base Term of this Contract, and this Contract

shall thereupon be extended for the applicable Option Period. If the Contract provides for

more than one Option Period, the same procedure shall apply with regard to extending the

term of this Contract for succeeding Option Periods.

7. OPTION PERIOD(S): There shall be two one year option periods.

8. PRICE ADJUSTMENT DURING OPTION PERIOD(S): All Contract prices submitted by the

Contractor and agreed to by the Authority, shall be applicable to the three (3) years of the Base

Term. For the Option Period(s) that are applicable to this Contract and are exercised hereunder, the

Authority shall adjust the compensation due to the Contractor utilizing the Consumer Price Index

for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U): Philadelphia-Wilmington-Atlantic City, Pa.-N.J.-Del.-Md.,

(1982-84=100 unless otherwise noted) (not seasonally adjusted), published by the Bureau of Labor

Statistics of the United States Department of Labor (hereinafter called the "Price Index").

For the first year of the Option Period of the Contract, the Price Index shall be determined for the

months of December 2016 and December 2017. The amounts payable to the Contractor in the final

year of the Base Term shall be multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the Price Index

for December 2017 and the denominator of which is the Price Index for December 2016. The

resulting product shall be the amounts payable to the Contractor in the first year of the Option

Period.

For the second year of the Option Period of the Contract, the Price Index shall be determined for

the months of December 2017 and December 2018. The amounts payable to the Contractor in the

first Option Period shall be multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the Price Index for

December 2018 and the denominator of which is the Price Index for December 2017. The resulting

product shall be the amounts payable to the Contractor in the second year of the Option Period.

In the event the amounts payable to the Contractor as set forth on the Contractor's Pricing Sheet(s),

as applicable shall be adjusted hereunder, then, simultaneously with such adjustment, the Average

Hourly Direct Wages and Benefits provided to employees under this contract shall also be

adjusted by multiplying said amounts, by the same fraction set forth in the applicable paragraph

above, which was used to adjust the amounts payable to the Contractor in the corresponding year

in the Base Term or Option Period, as applicable, and thereafter such adjusted Employee payments

shall be in effect and payable as though set forth in this Contract. The Contractor shall provide

evidence to the Authority of this employee payment adjustment in effect during such coming

option period.

In the event that the Price Index is not available for any specified month as herein above set forth

within the time set forth for payment, such Price Index for the last month then published shall be

ITB - Revised 6/2/15 2405368.v1

used to constitute the Price Index. In the event that adjustment is calculated to be zero or negative,

the effective adjustment shall be zero for that period with respect to the Average Hourly Wages

and Benefits required herein. Nothing herein shall prevent a contractor from raising wages or

increasing benefits at its own discretion.

In the event of a change in the basis for the computation of the said Price Index or the

discontinuance of its publication, such other appropriate index shall be substituted as may be

agreed upon by the Authority and the Contractor as properly reflecting changes in the value of the

current United States money in a manner similar to that established in the said Price Index. In the

event of the failure of the parties to so agree, the Authority may select and use such index, as it

seems appropriate. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, in no event shall any adjustment

hereunder be greater than three (3%) per annum.
