    (a)  Any contract awarded under the provisions of 
52.217-9G34, Supply Assurance through Multisource 
Contracting, shall include the option below.  This option 
is separate and distinct from any other option provision 
included in this contract.  
    (b)  To insure supply availability and mission support, 
the Government awarded multiple contracts under the original 
solicitation for the items specified in this contract.  A 
larger portion of that requirement was awarded to an 
unproven source requiring first article testing.  In the 
event that unproven source fails to complete the first 
article testing and provide a conforming product, the 
Government may increase the quantity of supplies called for 
in the Schedule of this contract at the unit prices 
specified.  The Government may order any quantity of 
supplies up to and including 150% of the total quantity 
specified in the Schedule of this contract.  The Government 
may also order any lesser quantity at the unit prices 
specified.
    (c)  The Contracting Officer may exercise the option by 
written notice to the Contractor within the scheduled 
delivery date set forth in the Schedule of this contract.  
The Government must provide the Contractor with written 
notice of its intent to exercise the option more than @55@@@ 
days before the scheduled delivery date.  Exercise of the 
option shall be by separate modification.  Exercising this 
right shall be at no additional cost to either party except 
as specified herein.  Failure to exercise the option shall 
have no effect on any other terms or conditions of this 
contract.
    (d)  Delivery of the added items shall continue at the 
same rate as the like items called for under the contract, 
unless the parties otherwise agree.
