beyond TSA's liability as stated in Article IV"Responsibilities" or Article VII"Funding and Limitations."
Claims against either party for damages of any nature whatsoever pursued under this Agreement shall be
limited to direct damages not to exceed the aggregate outstanding amount of funding obligated under this
Agreement at the time the dispute arises. If the PROJECT SPONSOR receives any communication
which it interprets as instructions to change the work encompassed in this Agreement, or to incur costs
not covered by funding obligated at that time, the PROJECT SPONSOR must not act on that
communication, and must contact the CO verbally and in writing immediately.
C. In no event shall either party be liable to the other for consequential,punitive, special and incidental
damages, claims for lost profits, or other indirect damages.
D. No third party shall assert any rights under this Agreement unless expressly provided herein.
ARTICLE XII—DISPUTES (AUG 2018)
Where possible, disputes shall be resolved by informal discussion between the CO for TSA and an
authorized representative of PROJECT SPONSOR. All disputes arising under or related to this
Agreement shall be resolved under this Article. Disputes, as used in this Agreement, mean a written
demand or written assertion by one of the parties seeking, as a matter of right, the adjustment or
interpretation of Agreement terms, or other relief arising under this Agreement, excluding tort claims
governed by Article XI. The dispute shall be made in writing and signed by a duly authorized
representative of the PROJECT SPONSOR or the TSA CO. At a minimum, a dispute under this
Agreement shall include a statement of facts, adequate supporting data, and a request for relief. In the
event the parties are unable to resolve any disagreement through good faith negotiations, PROJECT
SPONSOR may submit the dispute to the Deputy Assistant Administrator for Contracting and
Procurement. If the decision of the Deputy Assistant Administrator for Contracting and Procurement is
unsatisfactory, the decision may be appealed to the TSA Assistant Administrator for Contracting and
Procurement. The parties agree that the TSA Assistant Administrator/Head of the Contracting Activity
for Contracting and Procurement's decision shall be final and not subject to further judicial or
administrative review and shall be enforceable and binding upon the parties.
ARTICLE XIII- TERMINATION
A. In addition to any other termination rights provided by this Agreement, either parry may
terminate this Agreement at any time prior to its expiration date, with or without cause, by giving the
other party at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice of termination. Upon receipt of a notice of
termination, the receiving party shall take immediate steps to stop the accrual of any additional
obligations that might require payment.
B. If the PROJECT SPONSOR exercises its right under Paragraph A of this Article to withdraw
voluntarily from the Project,the PROJECT SPONSOR agrees to notify TSA in writing, and reimburse
the United States Government for all monies disbursed to it under this Agreement up to the date of
notification.
C. If TSA chooses not to proceed with a Design Phase, TSA shall reimburse the PROJECT
SPONSOR for all accrued allowable, allocable, and reasonable design costs for the Design Project up
to the Project stopping point, which shall not exceed the TSA funded amount presented in Article VII.
For example, if TSA elects not to proceed beyond the 30% Design Submittal Phase, then TSA shall
70T01025T7672N011
Design OTA Key West International Airport (EYW)
Page 14 of 20
notify the PROJECT SPONSOR in writing. TSA will then reimburse the PROJECT SPONSOR for
all accrued allowable, allocable, and reasonable costs for the Pre-Design Phase, Schematic Design Phase
and 30%Design Submittals Phase only up to the date of notice.
D. In the event of termination or expiration of this Agreement, any TSA funds that have not been
spent or incurred for allowable expenses prior to the date of termination and are not reasonably necessary
to cover termination expenses will be de-obligated from this Agreement.
ARTICLE XIV- CHANGES AND/OR MODIFICATIONS
Changes or modifications to this Agreement shall be in writing and signed by the TSA CO and the
authorized representative of the PROJECT SPONSOR. The modification shall cite the subject
provision to this Agreement and shall document the exact nature of the modification. No oral statement
by any person shall be interpreted as modifying or otherwise affecting the terms of this Agreement. The
properly signed written modification shall be attached to this Agreement and thereby becomes a part of
this Agreement.
Change Orders are defined as work that is added to or removed post OTA award that results in added
cost or changes the scope of the OTA. Any changes to the authorized amount shall be submitted by the
PROJECT SPONSOR to the TSA Contracting Officer Representative (COR) and TSA Contracting
Officer (CO) prior to any work starting. Once the COR and CO have been given advance notice of the
impact the Change Order has on the total cost of the Project, if TSA agrees to the change the TSA CO
will provide written approval to the PROJECT SPONSOR via a modification to the OTA in accordance
with Article XIV. The fully executed modification will provide the PROJECT SPONSOR authority to
proceed with the work identified in the Change Order. TSA will not reimburse the PROJECT
SPONSOR for any cost incurred for change order work that was not pre-approved by TSA or that was
performed prior to the execution of the OTA modification.
Change Requests are defined as requests for the utilization of contingency funds that do not add costs or
changes to the scope of the OTA. Change requests shall not be considered authorization to exceed TSA's
Reimbursement Limit. Any change requests shall be submitted by the PROJECT SPONSOR to the
TSA COR prior to any work starting. Once the COR has been given advance notice of the impact the
change request has on the Project, if TSA agrees to the change the TSA COR will provide written
approval to the PROJECT SPONSOR to proceed with the work identified in the Change Request. TSA
will not reimburse the PROJECT SPONSOR for any cost incurred for change request work that was
not pre-approved by TSA.
The TSA CO reserves the right to make unilateral modifications (signed only by the TSA CO) for
administrative modifications, such as changes to the line of accounting in Article VII, updates to TSA
POCs in Article X, and/or other administrative changes that do not affect the terms and conditions of
this Agreement.

ARTICLE XVI- PROTECTION OF INFORMATION (NOV 2021)
The parties agree that they shall take appropriate measures to protect proprietary, privileged, or
otherwise confidential information that may come into their possession as a result of this Agreement.
A. RECORDS AND RELEASE OF INFORMATION
Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 114(r), Sensitive Security Information and Nondisclosure of Security
Activities, and 49 C.F.R. § 1520.5(a), Sensitive Security Information (SSI)is a category of sensitive
but unclassified (SBU)information that must be protected because it is information that, if publicly
released, would be detrimental to the security of transportation. SSI may not be disclosed except in
accordance with the provisions of 49 C.F.R. part 1520, which defines the scope, categorization,
handling requirements, and disposition of information deemed SSI.
All persons assigned to work under this Agreement are subject to the provisions of 49 C.F.R. Part
1520, Protection of Sensitive Security Information, and shall safeguard and handle any SSI in
accordance with the policies and procedures outlined in 49 C.F.R. Part 1520, as well as the DHS and
TSA policies and procedures for handling and safeguarding SSI. All persons assigned to work under
this Agreement must complete the TSA-mandated SSI Awareness Training course prior to accessing
SSI, and on an annual basis for the duration of the OTA or for the duration of the requester's need for
access to SSI, whichever is later. The PROJECT SPONSOR shall place this requirement in all
contracts, sub-contracts,joint venture agreements, and teaming agreements related to the performance
of this agreement. For purposes of this OTA, the PROJECT SPONSOR would fall under the
provision of 49 C.F.R. § 1520.7(k): Each person employed by, contracted to, or acting for a covered
person, including a grantee of DHS or DOT, and including a person formerly in such position. This
includes all persons who are involved in the performance of the project, including officials and
employees of the PROJECT SPONSOR, and those who are involved in the Project on behalf of the
PROJECT SPONSOR including experts, consultants, contractors, and legal counsel.
Pursuant to 49 C.F.R. § 1520.9(a)(3), the PROJECT SPONSOR must contact SSIktsa�dhs.�ov for
guidance on handling requests to access SSI(before using SSI materials)for any other purpose besides
activities falling within the scope of the Agreement by other persons, including requests from experts,
consultants, and legal counsel ("requesters")hired by the PROJECT SPONSOR unrelated to the
performance of this Agreement. The PROJECT SPONSOR shall include the CO and COR as a
70T01025T7672N011
Design OTA Key West International Airport (EYW)
Page 16 of 20
carbon copy "cc" recipient of its contact to SSI@tsa.dhs.gov. The TSA SSI office must first make a
determination as to whether the requesters are a"covered person" with a"need to know" under
49 C.F.R. §§ 1520.7 and 1520.11. Further recipients of SSI shall be provided NDAs, in accordance
with these contract provisions, and with a copy of the SSI Quick Reference Guide for DHS Employees
and Contractors. Special request processing and handling requirements apply to PROJECT
SPONSOR employees as well as PROJECT SPONSOR Contractor employees who may be foreign
nationals. The PROJECT SPONSOR must clearly identify any employees who are not U.S. citizens
and for whom access to SSI is requested; the requirements of TSA Management Directive 2810.3
"Management of Foreign Access to Sensitive Information" apply.
Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs). The CO will provide the non-disclosure form (DHS Form
11000-6 and/or TSA Form 2815), as necessary, to the PROJECT SPONSOR when circumstances
warrant. NDAs are required to be signed by any person who is requesting access to SSI for any other
purpose besides activities falling within the scope of the Agreement. By signing the NDA, the
recipient certifies in writing that they will take the necessary steps to prevent the unauthorized
disclosure and use of information.
Breach. In accordance with 49 C.F.R. § 1520.9(c), the PROJECT SPONSOR agrees that in the
event of any actual or suspected breach of SSI(i.e., loss of control, compromise, unauthorized
disclosure, access for an unauthorized purpose, or other unauthorized access, whether physical or
electronic), the PROJECT SPONSOR shall immediately, and in no event later than one hour of
discovery, report the breach to the CO and the COR. The PROJECT SPONSOR is responsible for
positively verifying that notification is received and acknowledged by at least one of the foregoing
Government officials.
In the event that an SSI breach occurs as a result of the violation of a term of this Agreement by the
PROJECT SPONSOR or its employees, or the PROJECT SPONSOR's covered persons, the
PROJECT SPONSOR shall, as directed by the Contracting Officer and at no cost to the Government,
without delay correct or mitigate the violation.
For unauthorized disclosure of SSI, the PROJECT SPONSOR and its employees and PROJECT
SPONSOR's covered persons may also be subject to civil penalties and other consequences as set
forth in 49 C.F.R. § 1520.17.
B. PUBLICITY AND DISSEMINATION OF AGREEMENT INFORMATION
The PROJECT SPONSOR shall not publish, permit to be published, or distribute for public
consumption, any information, oral or written, concerning the results or conclusions made pursuant to
the performance of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the CO. The PROJECT
SPONSOR shall submit any request for public release at least ten (10)business days in advance of the
planned release. Under no circumstances shall the PROJECT SPONSOR release any requested
submittal prior to TSA approval.
Any material proposed to be published or distributed shall be submitted via email to the CO. The CO
will follow the procedures in TSA Management Directives 1700.3, "Written Articles," and 1700.4
"Press Releases." The Office of the Administrator retains the authority to deny publication
authorization. Any conditions on the approval for release will be clearly described. Notice of
