Page 143 of 165 Addendum 1214 617938

the Authority with a price proposal and a supporting CP-8A form, Claim for Exemption from Submission of Certified Cost or Pricing data form, the acceptability of which shall be determined by the Authority. If the CP8-A form is deemed unacceptable by the Authority, the Contractor shall revert to providing the aforementioned CP-8 form and supporting documentation. This pricing agreement shall be in effect for twenty (20) years commencing with the expiration of the Warranty Period of the last delivered Car under this Contract.

C. The Contractor shall include the substance of this Article, inclusive of Paragraphs A

through E, in all of its subcontracts with all Major Suppliers (with the exception of the Major Suppliers for wheels, axles and journal bearings as listed in Attachment 3); except that notwithstanding the provisions of this Article, the Authority shall have the right to procure parts or Components directly from the Major Suppliers. Any such purchase shall be subject to all provisions of this Article specifically including the maximum profit of five percent (5%) over such Major Suppliers’ cost of such part/Component.

D. Orders for such parts or Components shall be made through purchase orders which

shall be issued and funded separately from this Contract. Lead time for each item ordered shall be consistent with the industry standard lead time for production of the item. Warranties for ordered parts/Components shall be one (1) year unless otherwise agreed at the time of purchase.

E. This provision shall survive the expiration of this Contract.

ARTICLE 1023 ADDITIONAL SPARE PARTS

Within thirty (30) days of finalization of CDR (since at that stage the Contractor will have selected specific Manufacturers for Subsystems and Manufacturer names and model numbers of parts will be known), NYCT reserves the right under this provision, to order a list of spare parts in addition to and separate from the list already established in the price schedule (PF-3). This additional list shall include, but not be limited to the following, for example: power supply modules; central processing unit modules; communication modules; Component control modules; Train Operator interface modules; sensors; limit switches and transformers. This provision shall apply in the event that NYCT determines that additional spare parts of a particular Component, System or Subsystem are 1) not COTS and 2) necessary, based on the design of the R211 Cars. It is anticipated that NYCT will spend an amount not-to-exceed $ TBD. In order to determine if the price is fair and reasonable, the Contractor shall provide to the Project Manager, as evidence of the Contractor’s efforts to secure the best price, at least two (2) quotes, where possible, from the Manufacturer(s)/Supplier(s). The Contractor shall be allowed a maximum profit of five percent (5%) over the FOB delivered invoiced price, if the part comes from a Manufacturer/Supplier. In the event that the Component, System, or Subsystem for which additional spares are required is manufactured by the Contractor, the Contractor shall provide evidence of his costs, in accordance with Article 1022, upon which a five percent (5%) profit shall be allowed. The Project Manager shall verify all of this information with respect to pricing, prior to advising the Contractor to add the Component, System, or Subsystem to the list of additional parts. The Project Manager shall retain such information for internal audit purposes. Acquiring additional spare parts under this


Page 144 of 165 Addendum 1214 617938

provision shall not require a modification to the Contract but shall be managed by the Project Manager as long as the dollar amount stated herein is not exceeded. These additional spare parts shall be delivered at the same time as the spare parts on the list already established in the price schedule. This Article in no way relieves the Contractor of the requirement to provide NYCT all required spare parts listed on PF-3 (and the associated breakdown of each item) in accordance with Note # 3 listed therein.

ARTICLE 1024 PARTS COMPATIBILITY/MULTIPLE SOURCING

A. The Contractor shall ensure that the subsystem suppliers a) optimize the use of COTS components in the design of their systems and b) optimize the provision of multiple sources for non-COTS components in order to ensure that the Authority is not soliciting one source in the aftermarket when purchasing parts for the maintenance of those subsystems (See TS Section 22.6.4.3 and 22.6.4.4). At a minimum multiple sources shall be provided for those components frequently purchased in the aftermarket and listed below. Some of the items are on NYCT’s Qualified Proposers List and are available on request.

1. Truck Suspension Elements: Applies to coil spring and chevron type suspensions. For chevrons, obtaining technical data on suspension characteristics from the manufacturer would be critical. Chevrons must be installed as matched sets and differences in these characteristics between manufacturers must be minimized.

2. Relays (Carbody, Doors): Carbuilder should identify and propose alternates for qualification testing during design, for example cycle testing on the door operator and control system.

3. Air Spring/Air Bags 4. Rubber-Metal Bonded Assemblies (vibration isolation applications, bumpers, etc.) 5. Capacitors (HVAC, Propulsion): In addition to current supplier base, carbuilders

should be required to provide multiple sources if metal film technology is chosen for R211.

6. Contactors, including replaceable components (Propulsion, HVAC) 7. Shock Absorbers (Truck) 8. HVAC Components: Must be reviewed on a case by case basis during design

review. Examples include valves, solenoids, and seals. 9. Rubber Seals: such as door edges rubbers and window seals. 10. Bi-Parting End Door Devices: Applies to replaceable units such as belt drives,

balancers, and brackets. 11. Ductwork for HVAC 12. Knife Switch 13. Air Hoses (Truck System) 14. Current Collector Contact Shoes 15. Threshold Plates 16. Windshield Wiper Motor

ARTICLE 1025 GRAND JURY TESTIMONY

A.

RFC# RFP Section Reference Proposer Question/Comment NYCT AnswerlResponse

451 2 - II1-2 - Article 106 Considering that the CBTC equipment is not part of Contractor's scope of work, please confirm the infringement claims obligations of the Contractor listed in the Contract do not apply to the CBTC equipment and that the Authority will amend Article 106 accordingly.

Article 106 in the Terms and Conditions is revised as follows:

The Contractor and each Subcontractor, Supplier, or Manufacturer supplying any System, Subsystem, assembly, subassembly, or Component thereof, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Authority against all damages, liabilities, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) arising out of or related to any claim of infringement of any patent, trademark, copyright or mask work or misappropriation or misuse of any trade name, trade secret or other unpatented technology based upon {i) the Contractor, or such Subcontractor, Supplier, or Manufacturer supplying any System, Subsystem, assembly, subassembly, or Componentthereaf, or any tools, equipment, test materials or process to be delivered to the Authority under the Contract, (ii) the Authority's operatian ofthe Cars, Units, Trains, or (iii) the Authority's use of any System, Subsystem, assembly, subassembly or Component thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing. the Contractor will not bear the responsibility of indemnifying the Authority. as outlined above for any claim of infringement as it relates to the CaTe onboard equipment. which is being provided to the Contractor for installatian and testinz.

457 2 - II1-2 - Article 403C Could NYCT clarify article 403C and provide an example? See response to RFC 495 in this Addendum 12.

Change orders executed after notice of award but before exercise of the option would be subject to escalation, if the work of the change order is aoolicable to the cars in the option.

495 2 - Article 403C We understand from Article 403C that in the event NYCT exercises Option I for example, (I) NYCT expects an Option price deduction of 10% of the cost of all change orders affecting such Option I (e.g. additional seats in Cars); and (2) a price reduction equal to the change order non-recurring cost on the remaining 90% change order cost. This article creates an unequitable risk for the Contractor since the Contractor cannot foresee the Change Orders which will exist for this Project. This article creates an unknown significant price decrease risk for the Contractor, which risk is not under Contractor's control. The Contractor is unable, particularly at the bid stage, and probably after Contract award, to secure a price reduction of 10% on future unknown change orders with all of its suppliers. With the aim of offering a better price, we ask the Authority to delete this price reduction, and if not, at least to reduce the price reduction to maximwn 5%.

Article 403.C in the Terms and Conditions is revised as follows:

In the event the Authority exercises the Option(s), an adjustment to the Total Option Amount will be made for any Change Orders executed after the award of the Contract which have an impact on the cost of the Option. For any Change Orders that have an impact on the cost of deliverables te 138 elelivered under the Option, ten pereent (lQ%) shall be aeletea /FORI

In addition to the non-recurring cost. +the percent of labor cost and the percent of material cost shall also be agreed to in the executed Change Order. aad-llhese percentages for labor and material will be escalated in accordance with the Labor and Material Indices contained in ARTICLE 1202. The foreign content shall be determined as part of each Change Order that impacts the cost of the Option and the applicable currency shall be adjusted according to the applicable indices. All labor a nd material adjustments will be made using the average of the two (2) preceding calendar quarters' indices from the date of execution of the Change Order to the average of the final indices for the last two (2) calendar quarters preceding the date that the Option(s) is exercised. Applicable currency adjustments will be made using the two (2) preceding months' average exchange rate from the date the Change Order is executed until the two (2) months preceding the date that the Optiorus) is exercised.

627 3· PF PFI (column E) refers to PF2 for a detailed breakdown of the cost of the subassemblies for each car type. While PF2 consists of 12 tabs for all applicable car types of the base order (A.AI; AA2; A-B; S-AI; S-A2; SoB; OGl.AI; OGI-A2; OGl-B; 002-Al; OG2-A2; 002-B), it does not comprise the forms that would be required for the breakdown of all cars in each option. Since adding tabs for all these cases would generate a need for a significant number of additional PF2 tabs (estimate of 4S tabs), we request that the PFI form be modified to remove the reference of a PF2 form for all cars in each option.

RFC# RFP Section Reference

Proposer QuestioolComment NYCT AnswerlResponse

No, this section of the Overview and RFP will not be removed because the answers to these technical questions and the submittal requirements are necessary for NYCT to perform its evaluation of the Proposer's proposal.

MTA New York City Transit (NYCl)'s financing needs are executed by MTA Headquarters. NYCT is interested in vendor proposals that incorporate a low-cost financing alternative when compared to MTA's cost of funds achieved through capital markets access with the MTA Transportation Revenue Bond (TRB) credit. Alternatives range from direct lending on a fixed or variable basis from the Proposer or an entity providing the financing instrument, to credit support through provision of an irrevocable letter or line of credit. Alternatives also include, but are not limited to credit enhancement in the form of a guarantee on some portion ofMTA TRB obligations that would result in lower interest costs as compared to unenhanced obligations.

492 I - RFP Overview and Proposal Procedures

The information requested in the RFP, Section B - Proposer's and Supplier Experience and Lower Tier submittal, requirements (i.e. Responsibility Questionaire, ££0-1 forms), appears to ask for information for each supplier to be proposed that the Proposer assumes would normally be a part of the NYCT Supplier Approval process.

The Proposer requests that NYCT remove questions B.l 0, B.l1 B.12, and Lower Tier submittal requirements and require the proposers to describe their own internal evaluation process for subcontractor selection from NYCT's approved Supplier list.

614 1- Section 11-30-2) Overall benefit cost and financial benefit

to the authority

What type of finance is NYCT looking for? (NYCT loan or supplier loan or others)

615 \- Section 11-30-2)) Overall benefit cost and financial benefit

to the authority

What is amount and duration of loan NYCT is looking for? Does NYCT needs to secure all the funding prior to NTP ?

MTA' 5 substantial borrowing needs are described in more detail in the approved 20152019 Capital Program (see MTA website). Proposals should incorporate the largest size fmancingat the lowest possible cost. MTA's debt obligations amortize across a 40-year horizon using level debt service, accordingly the duration of the financing can be applied to any portion of this timeframe, but would ideally be commensurate with the useful life of the cars.

452 2 - 111-2 Article 107 Article 107 requires the Authority's prior written consent, which may be withheld in the Authority's sole discretion, for "any change in the ownership or control of Contractor, or any entity owning or controlling Contractor", In general, restructurings and changes in ownership aim at improving the affected entities in terms of, e.g., performance, growth, fmancing and synergy. The Authority would therefore most likely indirectly benefit from this as well. Additionally, most competitors for this RFP are a listed entity and the investors expect its management to be free to restructure or change the group structure in order to improve its performance without the restrictions of change in control clauses. Furthermore, performance or solvency concerns the Authority might have can be sufficiently addressed with the performance bond, advance payment bond and parent company guarantee as well as with the 5% retainage on all payments required by the RFP, from Contractor's entities or sureties on whose references, deliveries or capacities the Authority relies at pre-qualification stage or during project execution. Lastly, if the Contractor signs a contract, it is truly inccntivized to flawless execution of this contract because otherwise, the Contractor would incur material losses and liabilities. Therefore, it will never be in the Contractor's interest to restructure its corporation in a way that would adversely affect the performance on any ongoing project. We therefore propose that the restriction imposed on the Contractor regarding such a change in control be removed from the RFP.

No. This section of the Article will not be revised.

Proposer QuestloolComment NYU AnswerlResponse

484 2- ARTICLE 1202 ECONOMIC PRICE ADIUSTMENTIESC

ALATION FOR OPTIONS

Original wording: "The base currency exchange rate used for the calculation of the economic price adjustment is the arithmetic average (carried to four decimal points) of the rates published during the last two full months preceding the date of the Notice of Award of this Contract."

Suggested wording: The base currency exchange rate used for the calculation of the economic price adjustment is the spot rate published by Bloomberg at 14hOO Frankfurt time ten days before the date of bid submission.

Reasons why we are asking this update: If the base reference exchange rate is set at the time of Norice of Award of the contract, then the Contractor is exposed to currency exchange rate fluctuations between bid submission and the Notice of Award of the Contract.

Since NYCT is covering this risk between Contract Award and exercise dates of the options. can the adjustment clause also cover the time between bid submission and exercise dates?

When NYCT will exercise the options, the Proposer will enter into forward contracts to hedge expenses in foreign currencies. The Proposer would prefer if a spot exchange rate of a given day could be used to make the price adjustment, rather than an arithmetic average rate over two months, so that price adjustment and forward contracts can be based on the same spot rate.

No, this Article will remain unchanged.

If the Proposer can demonstrate a benefit to the Authority associated with a change to a spot exchange rate for a given day versus the 2 month average, the Proposer can submit this as part of an alternate proposal for consideration.

Note: With respect to the rationale for the request for a change to 1202. D.5 please note that the "bid submission" referred to by the Proposer, or the proposal submission in this case, will likely not be the last price submitted. The last price submitted will be with the Best and Final Offer which is much closer to the date of Notice of Award.

606 2 -1202 Article 1202 "Economic Price AdjustmentJEscalation for Options"- In order to be able to submit a more competitive offer, would the Authority accept alternative labor and/or material indices for the Option escalation formula?

The Authority will accept alternative labor and/or material indices for the Option escalation formula. The Contractor should submit this as part of an alternate proposal demonstrating the benefit to NYCT of using these alternative indices.

609 2 - SECTION IIICONTRACT TERMS AND

CONDITIONS ARTICLES 905.A

AND 905.0TESTING

Please confirm that tests to be performed by the Contractor are those set forth in the Specifications This RFC was superseded by the following language:

Article 905 D. states "The Project Manager reserves the right to determine what tests are necessary."

Please if clarify that this clause is limited to the only the testing that is required in Article 905 and the Technical Specification.

No, this clause is not limited to only the testing that is required in Article 905 and the Technical Specification. To clarify, the Authority has, to the best of its knowledge and based on past experience, outlined all of the required testing in the Terms and Conditions and the Technical Specification. However, in the event that there is some unforeseen issue during design or manufacturing which would require further testing to resolve, the Project Manager must reserve the right to require that testing be performed.

466 4 - Attachment 9 (Schedule A)Section B, first

paragraph.

Item (iii) of first paragraph is impossible to comply with. It requires that somehow, a condition in Contractor's policy might override a conflicting condition contained in a subcontractor's policy. The conditions in one party's insurance policy cannot dictate or override the conditions in another party's policy. To achieve the same objective (i.e, ensure that all policies, contractor's and subcontractor's, will be primary I noncontributory), it would be preferable to simply state that these requirements must be flowed down to any and all subcontractors.

Attachment 9 (Schedule A) Section B item (iii) is rewritten as follows:

"Contractor's requirements written herein shall flow down to any and all subcontractors. Any and all policies shall be primary and must be exhausted before implicating any AuthoritylMTA policy available, and"

469 4 - Attachment 9 (Schedule A) Section B.4.

Section 8.4 requires that the professional liability insurance coverage be also extend to include "personal injury, bodily injury and property damage from the performance of professional service and/or arising out of the Work." As generally, commercial general liability insurance policies cover this, will the Authority accept avoiding unnecessary duplication of coverage?

The bodily injury and property damage within Professional Liability is due to injury arising out of Contractor's errors and omissions while in General Liability is due to liability. Therefore, there is no duplication of coverage.

Proposer Question/Comment NYCT A05werIResponse

502 4 - Attachmeot 3 Attachment 3 includes some sub-components not only component. Is it required also for sub-component which is included in other component to be from qualified supplier?

If, by using the word Component in this question the SupplierlProposer is referring to the Subsystem which is listed in Attachment 3, then the Proposer must include as part of its base proposal a Subsystem from a qualified Supplier. If proposing an unqualified Supplier for a Subsystem, this should be included as an alternate proposal. Please note the requirements of paragraph 5 of the Overview when submitting proposals that include unqualified Suppliers of major Subsystems.

If the SupplierlProposer is referring to the Components which make up the Subsystems identified in Attachment 3, for which one has to be pre-qualified, then the answer is no. The Components of the Subsystems do not necessarily have to come from a qualified Supplier.

100 5-22.8.1.1 Referenced PF-5 Form does not list a BTE for the Event Recorder only a Software Workstation. Previous orders required a BTE for Event Recorder. Please clarify if only a Software Workstation is required for Event Recorder or if a BTE for Event Recorder is also required.

(superseded byRFC #617) 617

5-2.4.1.1. Various proposers have expressed a desire for an increase in the car weight greater than 78,000 lbs as required by the Technical Specification (TS).

The Authority is desirous of achieving a lighter car based on the corporate goals established for the R211 program. In fact, one of the design goals laid out in the TS is minimization of weight. Additionally, minimization of weight is part of the technical evaluation criteria as laid out in the Overview of the RFP. The extent to which a proposer cannot meet the weight, given that it is an evaluative criterion, needs to be included in its proposal. Sufficient technical detail must be provided to justify the claim that a higher weight allowance is needed. Such information should include a detailed analysis of car weight using the latest requirements as amended throuzh Addenda to the RFP.
