contract, the type of real estate contract, the source selection method, the primary term
of the real estate contract (if applicable), and the consideration to be paid by the District:

Contract Party Name: Sentinel Square Hana OW, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company (“Landlord”)
Type of Real Estate Contract: Amendment to I n-Lease Agreement (District is
Tenant)
Location of Real Property: 1050 First Street, NE
Source Selection Method: Non-Competitive as to the Amendment
Primary Term (if applicable): Approximately 2 years and 11 months remaining
with an option to extend by 5 years under existing In-
Lease Agreement. The proposed Amendment would
extend the primary term by 8 years.

Consideration to be paid by District
for First Year under the Amendment
(March 1, 2029 through
February 28, 2030): $9,123,668.58
Certificate of Funding Amount
for Fiscal Year 2026: $0

2. If the real estate contract is a lease amendment, a breakdown of the Annual Rental for
the first Lease Year under the amendment and the scheduled escalations thereof:

Premises (164,110 Rentable Square Footage (“RSF”))

*This is a blended rate for the rates from March 1, 2029 through December 15, 2029 and from December 16,
2029 through February 28, 2030 pursuant to the terms of the Amendment.

3. If the real estate contract is a lease amendment, a description of any extensions of or
options to renew the primary lease term set forth above , the contract amount for any
extension or option period (and an explanation of any difference), and a description of
any options to purchase the real property:

The proposed Amendment would extend the primary term under the existing i n-lease
agreement by 8 years. The District has one option to extend the primary term by 5 years under
the existing i n-lease agreement which option would remain unchanged by the proposed
Amendment. The annual rental for such extended term cannot be determined at this time, but
is not anticipated to be equal to the a nnual rental during the primary term. This is primarily
due to the fact that the net rental rate for the first lease year of the extended term shall be equal
to the then fair market rental rate for comparable properties in the District of Columbia, as
determined by the Landlord and the District. The proposed Amendment does not provide for
an option to purchase the real property.

Securities and Banking (“DISB”) will continue to occupy 164,110 RSF of office space.
OSSE and DISB will also continue to have use of 24 parking spaces for fleet vehicles and
94 employee parking spaces.

5. A description of the District’s specific real property need associated with the proposed
real estate contract and the selection process, including the number of offerors, the
evaluation criteria, and the evaluation results , including price, technical or quality, and
past performance components:

3

The existing in- lease agreement, which was deemed approved by Council on December 23,
2016 (CA21-0577), was the result of a competitive process. The Amendment resulted from a
proposal from the Landlord requesting that the District extend the primary term of the existing
in-lease agreement in exchange for which the District would realize approximately $9 million
in rent abatement and obtain an approximately $13.1 million tenant improvement allowance to
improve the OSSE and DISB premises.

In response to the Landlord’s proposal, DGS met with OSSE and DISB regarding the
Amendment terms. Both OSSE and DISB wish to remain at this location and support the
Amendment.

1050 First Street, NE offers OSSE and DISB the opportunity to remain in a Class A building
that is centrally-located for visitors from all eight Wards and serves each agency’s needs.

Secretary; Russ Allegrette, Treasurer; Hyejin Won, Vice President ; and Sangmin Choung,
President. The Landlord has performed satisfactorily since the existing in-lease agreement was
executed in 2016.

8. Expected outcomes of the proposed real estate contract:

The execution of the proposed Amendment is expected to result in the continued occupancy
by OSSE and DISB of the subject space for an additional 8 years, with the possibility of an
additional 5 years pursuant to an extension option under the original in-lease agreement.

9. A statement that suitable space owned by the District is not available or cannot be
reasonably renovated or altered:

Based upon an evaluation of space owned by the District, there is no suitable space owned by
the District, either as-is or which can reasonably be renovated or altered, which would meet
the needs of OSSE and DISB fulfilled under the Amendment.

10. ANC notice of the proposed real estate contract:

lease agreement.

11. A certification that the proposed real estate contract is within the appropriated budget

Period, commencing with the next installment of Annual Rental due after the effective date

termination of the Lease prior to the expiration of the Extended Initial Term result in (i)
any continued or accelerated payment by the District of any amortization rental payments
for, or the principal of, the Additional TI Allowance or (ii) any other payment of or
reimbursement for the then remaining unamortized portion of the Additional TI Allowance,
unless approved by a court order but only if the Lease is terminated prior to the expiration

Term TI Outside Delivery Date that the Extended Term Tenant Improvements have not
been Substantially Completed.

herein as the “TI Construction Costs” (it being agreed that TI Construction Costs may
EXECUTION VERSION

Page 20 of 39

1050 First Street, NE – Fifth Amendment to In-Lease Agreement
include such other costs as Landlord and District may agree) . The TI Construction Costs
shall include, as a component thereof, a project management fee to Landlord equal to 3%
of the total TI Construction Costs constituting “hard costs” (i.e., excluding any TI
Construction Costs related to design, space planning, architectural work, engineering work
and other soft costs; for the avoidance of doubt, furniture, fixtures, equipment and cabling
are excluded ) for Landlord’s management and coordination of the construction of the
Extended Term Tenant Improvements (it being agreed by Landlord and the District that no
cost which is included in the “hard costs” shall be counted more than once for purposes of
calculating the project management fee). Landlord agrees and acknowledges that if
OCTO/DC-Net is the Subcontractor for the IT requirements of the Extended Term Tenant
Improvements, Landlord shall be responsible for ordering any OCTO/DC -Net specified
equipment, and acknowledges that OCTO/DC -Net requires an “upfront ” payment for
OCTO/DC-Net’s purchase and installation of such equipment.

10. Cost Ceiling; Budget. The “Cost Ceiling” means the Extended Term TI Allowance
plus the amount of all Excess Costs approved by the District under this Section 10 or
Section 12 below and any Additional TI Allowance elected to be utilized by the District
pursuant to the provisions below . W ithin 30 Business Days of the establishment of the
Final Plans and Specifications, Landlord shall provide the District with a budget (the
“Turnkey Budget”) reflecting the cost of the Extended Term Tenant Improvements (the
“Budget Costs ”) (along with reasonable supporting documentation), including, if
applicable, a calculation of the amount by which the total Budget Costs exceed the then
Cost Ceiling (any such excess amount, an “Excess Cost”). If the Turnkey Budget reflects
an Excess Cost, t he District shall within 15 Business Days after receipt of the Turnkey
Budget (the “District’s Response Period”) either (a) deliver a written notice signed by the
Director agreeing to pay for the Excess Cost, which payment may be through the
application of the Additional TI Allowance (such notice, an “ Excess Cost Approval
Notice”), the delivery of which Excess Cost Approval Notice shall require the certification
of the availability of appropriated funds, or (b) submit to Landlord value engineering of
the Extended Term Tenant Improvements that, if implemented, the District anticipates
would result in a Turnkey Budget with no or reduced Excess Cost (the “ District’s Value
Engineering”). The District may elect to use a combination of the foregoing options to
apply against any Excess Costs, or reduce the Budget Costs to eliminate any potential
Excess Costs. An Excess Cost approved in an Excess Cost Approval Notice and not paid
by application of the Additional TI Allowance shall be payable in a lump sum as Additional
Rent in accordance with Section 1 6 below. Notwithstanding any provision in this Work
Exhibit or the Lease to the contrary, in addition to the District’s right to elect to pay any
Excess Cost in a lump sum as set forth herein, the District may elect that such Excess Cost
be applied against the Additional TI Allowance pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Fifth
Amendment by including such election in writing in the Excess Cost Approval Notice
delivered pursuant to this Section 10 or Section 12 below. An election by the District that
any Excess Cost be paid from the Additional TI Allowance shall constitute the District’s
agreement to pay Landlord for the Additional TI Allowance as Additional Rent over the
Additional TI Amortization Period based upon the amortization of any Used Additional
TIA at 8.0% per annum. Within 10 Business Days of Landlord’s receipt of the District’s
Value Engineering, Landlord shall prepare a revised Turnkey Budget and submit the same,
EXECUTION VERSION

Page 21 of 39

1050 First Street, NE – Fifth Amendment to In-Lease Agreement
including the revised Budget Costs, to the District. If applicable, Landlord shall direct the
Project Architect to promptly revise the Final Plans and Specifications in accordance with
the District’s Value Engineering, which revised Final Plans and Specifications shall be
subject to the District’s approval, and upon such approval the revised Final Plans and
Specifications shall be deemed to be the Final Plans and Specifications. The revisions to
the Turnkey Budget pursuant to the foregoing shall continue until the earlier of there being
(i) a revised Turnkey Budget reflecting no Excess Cost, or (ii) the District agreeing to pay
the Excess Cost pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 10, at which time the
applicable Turnkey Budget shall be the approved Turnkey Budget, and Landlord shall
proceed with the work in accordance with this Work Exhibit. Any Excess Cost Approval
Notice for the payment of Excess Costs mu st be signed by the Director. Any purported
Excess Cost Approval Notice not in compliance with the provisions of this Section shall
be of no force or effect, the District shall have no obligation to pay any costs related thereto,
and Landlord shall be under no obligation to proceed with any redesign or construction
work that is the subject thereof. Landlord acknowledges that if it proceeds with any such
work prior to receipt of an Excess Cost Approval Notice complying with the provisions of
this Section, Landlord does so at its sole and complete risk. The Turnkey Budget may
include industry standard contingencies for hard costs and soft costs, but Landlord shall
not apply any contingency funds towards any Budget Cost without the prior written
approval (which may be an email) of a Portfolio Manager.

11. Project Schedule. Subject to Force Majeure Events and District Delay, Landlord
shall design and construct the Extended Term Tenant Improvements in accordance with
the Project Schedule. Landlord acknowledges that the dates set forth in the Project
Schedule will be established after Landlord has considered the effect of any then current
supply chain delays. Further, within 10 Business Days after Landlord’s receipt of the
construction permit(s), Landlord shall deliver to the District a revised construction
schedule pertaining to the Extended Term Tenant Improvements to update and replace the
Project Schedule. Any amendments or revisions to the Project Schedule must be approved
in writing by the District, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed.

12. District Proposed Changes to the Final Plans and Specifications.

(a) Any changes to the Final Plans and Specifications desired by the District
shall be requested in writing (a “ District Proposed Change”) and shall be subject to
Landlord’s reasonable approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed, except as otherwise provided below. Within 10 Business Days
of Landlord’s receipt of the District Proposed Change, Landlord shall notify the District
in writing ( a “Landlord’s Notice ”) of Landlord’s approval or disapproval of the
District Proposed Change (with any denial specifying Landlord’s objections in
reasonable detail). The Landlord’s Notice shall include the fixed amount of any cost
increase (the “Change Order Cost”) and whether the Change Order Cost will result in
an Excess Cost and/or any delay in Substantial Completion of the Extended Term
Tenant Improvements that will result from the District’s requested changes to the Final
Plans and Specifications (the “Landlord Stated Delay”). If a Landlord’s Notice sets
EXECUTION VERSION

Page 22 of 39

1050 First Street, NE – Fifth Amendment to In-Lease Agreement
forth a Change Order Cost including a Change Order Cost resulting in an Excess Cost,
within 15 Business Days after the District’s receipt of such Landlord’s Notice, the
District shall, as applicable, (i) approve or disapprove the Change Order Cost that will
not result in an Excess Cost, or (ii) approve or disapprove the Excess Cost (an approval
being set forth in an Excess Cost Approval Notice, pursuant to which the District shall
reimburse Landlord for the Excess Cost (which reimbursement may be by means of the
application of the Additional TI Allowance), subject to the terms of, and the procedures
contained in this Work Exhibit). If the District Proposed Change will cause a delay in
Substantial Completion pursuant to the Landlord Stated Delay, the Extended Term TI
Outside Delivery Date will be extended day-for-day for any actual delay caused by the
District Proposed Change, not to exceed the Landlord Stated Delay (such delay being
deemed to be a District Delay as set forth in Section 18 below). Any Excess Cost
Approval Notice must be signed by the Director after the District has certified the
availability of appropriated funds for such purpose and the Excess Cost shall be paid
in accordance with Section 16 below. If the District Proposed Change results in a
Change Order Cost but not an Excess Cost, the Change Order Cost may be approved
in a writing (including an email) from the Director or a Portfolio Manager. If the
District fails to provide an Excess Cost Approval Notice before the end of said 15
Business Day period, the District shall be deemed to have withdrawn its request for the
District Proposed Change. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary
contained elsewhere herein, a District Proposed Change shall be subject to Landlord’s
prior written approval, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, if the work requested in the
District Proposed Change would: (x) change the rentable area of the Premises, (y)
materially affect the Base Building Conditions or Building Structures and Systems, or
(z) involve the exterior of the Building. The Parties acknowledge that Excess Costs in
the amount of approximately $3,938,640.00 may result under this Work Exhibit, which
Excess Costs would be paid in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Work
Exhibit.

(b) Any changes to the Final Plans and Specifications desired by Landlord (a
“Landlord Proposed Change ”) shall be requested in writing and subject to the
District’s written approval, in its sole and absolute discretion. Any delay in the date of
Substantial Completion of the Extended Term Tenant Improvements as a result of a
Landlord Proposed Change (but excluding any delay resulting from District failure to
respond to Landlord’s request for the Landlord Proposed Change within ten (10)
Business Days) shall be deemed to be a Landlord Delay. Any costs related to or
resulting from a Landlord Proposed Change shall be at the sole cost and expense of
Landlord.

13. Change Orders. Upon Landlord’s receipt of (a) an Excess Cost Approval Notice if
a District Proposed Change will result in Excess Cost, (b) the District’s approval of a
Change Order Cost not resulting in Excess Cost, or (c) the District’s approval of a Landlord
Proposed Change, the District Proposed Change or Landlord Proposed Change, as
applicable, shall be deemed a “Change Order”. If not otherwise performed under Section
12 above and if applicable, Landlord shall direct the Project Architect to promptly r evise
the Final Plans and Specifications in accordance with such Change Order and such revised
EXECUTION VERSION

Page 23 of 39

1050 First Street, NE – Fifth Amendment to In-Lease Agreement
Final Plans and Specifications shall be subject to the District’s approval as provided above
in Section 6.

14. Unapproved Change Order Costs. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Work Exhibit, including Sections 12 and 13, if a District Proposed Change would result in
a Change Order Cost (whether or not creating an Excess Cost), Landlord shall be under no
obligation to proceed with any redesign or construction work required by the District
Proposed Change until Landlord has received the District’s written approval thereof
(including, if applicable, an Excess Cost Approval Notice) . Any Excess Cost Approval
Notice must be signed by the Director. Any Excess Cost Approval Notice not in
compliance with the provisions of this Section shall be of no force or effect, and Landlord
shall be under no obligation to proceed with any redesign or construction work required by
a District Proposed Change. Landlord acknowledges that if it proceeds with a District
Proposed Change prior to receipt of an Excess Cost Approval Notice in compliance with
the provisions of this Section, it does so at its sole and complete risk.

15. Finalized Change Orders . Upon approval by the District and Landlord of such
revised Final Plans and Specifications based on any Change Order (and only after
Landlord’s receipt of an Excess Cost Approval Notice, if applicable), Landlord shall direct
Contractor to promptly proceed with the work contemplated by such Change Order. If no
revisions to the Final Plans and Specifications are necessary as a result of a Change Order
(and only after Landlord’s receipt of an Excess Cost Approval Notice, if applicable),
Landlord shall direct Contractor to promptly proceed with the work contemplated by such
Change Order.

16. Final Accounting. Within 30 days after Substantial Completion of the Extended
Term Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall deliver to the District the Extended Term
Declaration which shall include a final accounting of the TI Construction Costs (on an open
book basis) that sets forth a description of the Extended Term Tenant Improvement work
covered by all Change Orders, the actual final amount of Excess Costs, the final TI
Construction Costs and any Used Additional TIA (the “Final Accounting ”). Any actual
Excess Cost that is not paid pursuant to the application of the Additional TI Allowance
shall be paid as Additional Rent in a lump sum by the District to Landlord with the next
installment of Annual Rental due (or that would be due but for the application of any
abatement or rent credit) after execution of the Extended Term Declaration.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the District may elect to pay any Excess Cost or portion
thereof prior to the execution of the Extended Term Declaration , in its sole and absolut e
discretion, and any such payment shall be reflected in the Extended Term Declaration. If
the TI Construction Costs have exceeded the then Cost Ceiling but were not reflected as
exceeding such Cost Ceiling on any Turnkey Budget, revised Turnkey Budget or
Landlord’s Notice, or if Landlord incurred alleged Excess Costs without an Excess Cost
Approval Notice as required hereunder, then such costs shall not accrue against the Cost
Ceiling, and the District shall have no obligation to pay any such costs if above the Cost
Ceiling. If pursuant to the Final Accounting it is determined that the Extended Term TI
Allowance exceeds the TI Construction Costs, then Landlord shall grant to the District such
excess amount (consisting of the difference between the Extended Term TI Allowance and
EXECUTION VERSION

Page 24 of 39

1050 First Street, NE – Fifth Amendment to In-Lease Agreement
the TI Construction Costs) as a rental abatement of Annual Rental payable under this Lease,
to be applied to the next successive payment(s) of Annual Rental due and payable by the
District under this Lease (the “ Additional Landlord Credit”). The Additional Landlord
Credit, if any, shall be set forth on the Extended Term Declaration and shall be applied
following the exhaustion of the Landlord Credit. The Parties acknowledge that the
execution of the Extended Term Declaration by Landlord and the District i s not required
to authorize Landlord to proceed with the Extended Term Tenant Improvements, and that
the District intends the Excess Cost Approval Notice to be an express representation to
Landlord upon which Landlord may reasonably rely.

17. Landlord Delay. A “ Landlord Delay” shall mean: (a) Landlord’s failure to
respond, notify or take any action otherwise required under this Work Exhibit within the
time periods set forth herein, or (b) delay beyond the Extended Term TI Outside Delivery
Date in the Substantial Completion of the Extended Term Tenant Improvements to the
extent resulting or arising from or in connection with any (i) Landlord Proposed Change
or (ii) any negligence or willful misconduct by Landlord or any of its Agents. To the extent
any additional TI Construction Costs are incurred in connection with any delay in
Substantial Completion of the Extended Term Tenant Improvements resulting from a
Landlord Delay, such costs shall be Landlord’s sole responsibility and paid for by
Landlord.

18. District Delay. A “District Delay” shall mean: (a) any delay beyond the Extended
Term TI Outside Delivery Date in the Substantial Completion of the Extended Term Tenant
Improvements to the extent resulting or arising from or in connection with (i) the District’s
failure to respond, notify or take any action otherwise required under this Work Exhibit
within the time periods set forth herein, or (ii) District Negligence ; (b) any delay beyond
the Extended Term TI Outside Delivery Date in the Substantial Comple tion of the
Extended Term Tenant Improvements to the extent resulting or arising from or in
connection with a delay relating to a District Proposed Change , provided such District
Delay shall not exceed the applicable Landlord Stated Delay; or (c) any deemed District
Delay under this Work Exhibit . To the extent any additional costs are incurred in
connection with any delay in Substantial Completion of the Extended Term Tenant
Improvements resulting from a District Delay, such costs shall be the District’s s ole
responsibility and shall be deemed a Change Order Cost , and if such Change Order Cost
results in Excess Cost, such Excess Cost shall be paid by the District, so long as, and only
if, such Excess Cost has been previously approved by the District in a n Excess Cost
Approval Notice, pursuant to the terms of this Work Exhibit. In the event that the Extended
Term Tenant Improvements are not Substantially Complete on or before the Extended
Term TI Outside Delivery Date as a result of a District Delay, then the Extended Term TI
Outside Delivery Date shall be extended by one day for each day that the Substantial
Completion of the Extended Term Tenant Improvements is delayed beyond the Extended
Term TI Outside Delivery Date as a result of such District Delay.

Landlord shall provide notice to the District of any purported District Delay
specifying the nature and the length thereof within 2 Business Days after Landlord or any
of Landlord’s Agents has knowledge of the existence of the District Delay.
EXECUTION VERSION

Page 25 of 39

1050 First Street, NE – Fifth Amendment to In-Lease Agreement
19. Substantial Completion . The Extended Term Tenant Improvements shall be
deemed “Substantially Complete ”, “ Substantially Completed” or in a state of
“Substantial Completion” when both: (a) Contractor and Landlord have obtained all sign-
offs, inspections and approvals required by the District of Columbia (as a sovereign entity,
and not as a tenant under this Lease) and any other applicable governmental authorities for
the issuance of the certificate(s) of occupancy covering the Premises , and have delivered
such certificate of occupancy to the District (issuance of a certificate of occupancy shall be
deemed to be conclusive evidence that Landlord and Contractor have obtained all required
sign-offs, inspections and approvals) , if applicable , and (b) the Project Architect has
certified (on a standard AIA Form) that the Extended Term Tenant Improvements ha ve
been completed substantially in accordance with the Final Plans and Specifications ,
including the placement of furniture and equipment (as reflected on the Final Plans and
Specifications, if applicable) , subject to completion of punch list items that do not
materially impair the ability of the District to occupy or utilize the Premises for the
Permitted Use under this Lease (the “Punch List”). On or prior to the date of Substantial
Completion, the District together with Landlord (if it elects) and Contractor shall make a
final inspection of the Premises to ensure that the Extended Term Tenant Improvements
are Substantially Complete. At such time, Landlord shall cause to be prepared a Punch
List by the D istrict, Landlord (if it elects) and Contractor, and Landlord shall cause such
Punch List to be delivered by the Project Architect to Landlord and the District. The date
of Substantial Completion shall be set forth in Extended Term Declaration, and the Punch
List shall be attached as a schedule thereto. Landlord’s contract with Contractor shall: (i)
provide that the Contractor shall complete all Punch List items within 45 days of its receipt
thereof, and (ii) contain an obligation to repair any Latent Defects, which shall provide in
substance that the Contractor shall promptly commence and diligently proceed to correct
any Latent Defects in the Extended Term Tenant Improvements upon receipt of the
District’s written notice to Landlord of a Latent Defect, provided such notice is delivered
to Landlord within 12 months after the date of Substantial Completion of the Extended
Term Tenant Improvements. As used herein, the term "Latent Defect," shall mean a defect
in the construction of the Extended Term Tenant Improvements that could not have
reasonably been discovered prior to the District taking possession of the Premises by a
commercially reasonable inspection of the Premises performed by a reasonably prudent
architect or engineer exercising a professionally reasonable level of due diligence in such
inspection. No later than 30 calendar days following Substantial Completion of the
Extended Term Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall deliver to the District (x) any and all
manuals, booklets, specification sheets, and manufacturer’s warranty information that
accompanied any and all non-construction element items that are a part of the Extended
Term Tenant Improvements, and (y) as -built plans in “Revit” for any buildings or other
structures or improvements, including for parking or vehicle maintenance, that constitute
Extended Term Tenant Improvements . In the event any Punch List item remains
incomplete or outstanding after 45 days of Contractor’s receipt of the Punch List, then for
each day following such 45 day period that any Punch List item remains incomplete or
outstanding, the District shall be entitled to a per diem abatement of Annual Rental in the
amount of $500.00, which shall be in addition to any other rent abatement to which the
District is entitled under the Lease or this Work Exhibit.

§ 5.5 Contract provisions and related matters.
Effective: January 15, 2025
Currentness
(a) Required contract clauses. The Agency head will cause or require the contracting officer to require the contracting officer to
insert in full, or (for contracts covered by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (48 CFR chapter 1)) by reference, in any contract
in excess of $2,000 which is entered into for the actual construction, alteration and/or repair, including painting and decorating,
of a public building or public work, or building or work financed in whole or in part from Federal funds or in accordance
with guarantees of a Federal agency or financed from funds obtained by pledge of any contract of a Federal agency to make a
loan, grant or annual contribution (except where a different meaning is expressly indicated), and which is subject to the labor
standards provisions of any of the laws referenced by § 5.1, the following clauses (or any modifications thereof to meet the
particular needs of the agency, Provided, That such modifications are first approved by the Department of Labor):
(1) Minimum wages—
(i) Wage rates and fringe benefits. All laborers and mechanics employed or working upon the site of the work (or otherwise
working in construction or development of the project under a development statute), will be paid unconditionally and not
less often than once a week, and without subsequent deduction or rebate on any account (except such payroll deductions
as are permitted by regulations issued by the Secretary of Labor under the Copeland Act (29 CFR part 3)), the full amount
of basic hourly wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalents thereof) due at time of payment computed at rates
not less than those contained in the wage determination of the Secretary of Labor which is attached hereto and made a part
hereof, regardless of any contractual relationship which may be alleged to exist between the contractor and such laborers
and mechanics. As provided in paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section, the appropriate wage determinations are effective by
operation of law even if they have not been attached to the contract. Contributions made or costs reasonably anticipated
for bona fide fringe benefits under the Davis–Bacon Act ( 40 U.S.C. 3141(2)(B)) on behalf of laborers or mechanics are
considered wages paid to such laborers or mechanics, subject to the provisions of paragraph (a)(1)(v) of this section; also,
regular contributions made or costs incurred for more than a weekly period (but not less often than quarterly) under plans,
funds, or programs which cover the particular weekly period, are deemed to be constructively made or incurred during
such weekly period. Such laborers and mechanics must be paid the appropriate wage rate and fringe benefits on the wage
determination for the classification(s) of work actually performed, without regard to skill, except as provided in paragraph
(a)(4) of this section. Laborers or mechanics performing work in more than one classification may be compensated at the
rate specified for each classification for the time actually worked therein: Provided, That the employer's payroll records
accurately set forth the time spent in each classification in which work is performed. The wage determination (including
any additional classifications and wage rates conformed under paragraph (a)(1)(iii) of this section) and the Davis–Bacon
§ 5.5 Contract provisions and related matters., 29 C.F.R. § 5.5

poster (WH–1321) must be posted at all times by the contractor and its subcontractors at the site of the work in a prominent
and accessible place where it can be easily seen by the workers.
(ii) Frequently recurring classifications.
(A) In addition to wage and fringe benefit rates that have been determined to be prevailing under the procedures
set forth in 29 CFR part 1, a wage determination may contain, pursuant to § 1.3(f), wage and fringe benefit rates
for classifications of laborers and mechanics for which conformance requests are regularly submitted pursuant to
paragraph (a)(1)(iii) of this section, provided that:
(1) The work performed by the classification is not performed by a classification in the wage determination for
which a prevailing wage rate has been determined;
(2) The classification is used in the area by the construction industry; and
(3) The wage rate for the classification bears a reasonable relationship to the prevailing wage rates contained
in the wage determination.
(B) The Administrator will establish wage rates for such classifications in accordance with paragraph (a)(1)(iii)(A)
(3) of this section. Work performed in such a classification must be paid at no less than the wage and fringe benefit
rate listed on the wage determination for such classification.
(iii) Conformance.
(A) The contracting officer must require that any class of laborers or mechanics, including helpers, which is not listed
in the wage determination and which is to be employed under the contract be classified in conformance with the wage
determination. Conformance of an additional classification and wage rate and fringe benefits is appropriate only when
the following criteria have been met:
(1) The work to be performed by the classification requested is not performed by a classification in the wage
determination; and
(2) The classification is used in the area by the construction industry; and
(3) The proposed wage rate, including any bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable relationship to the wage
rates contained in the wage determination.
(B) The conformance process may not be used to split, subdivide, or otherwise avoid application of classifications
listed in the wage determination.
§ 5.5 Contract provisions and related matters., 29 C.F.R. § 5.5

(C) If the contractor and the laborers and mechanics to be employed in the classification (if known), or their
representatives, and the contracting officer agree on the classification and wage rate (including the amount designated
for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of the action taken will be sent by the contracting officer by email to
DBAconformance@dol.gov. The Administrator, or an authorized representative, will approve, modify, or disapprove
every additional classification action within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the
contracting officer within the 30–day period that additional time is necessary.
(D) In the event the contractor, the laborers or mechanics to be employed in the classification or their representatives,
and the contracting officer do not agree on the proposed classification and wage rate (including the amount designated
for fringe benefits, where appropriate), the contracting officer will, by email to DBAconformance@dol.gov, refer
the questions, including the views of all interested parties and the recommendation of the contracting officer, to the
Administrator for determination. The Administrator, or an authorized representative, will issue a determination within
30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30–day period
that additional time is necessary.
(E) The contracting officer must promptly notify the contractor of the action taken by the Wage and Hour
Division under paragraphs (a)(1)(iii)(C) and (D) of this section. The contractor must furnish a written copy of such
determination to each affected worker or it must be posted as a part of the wage determination. The wage rate
(including fringe benefits where appropriate) determined pursuant to paragraph (a)(1)(iii)(C) or (D) of this section
must be paid to all workers performing work in the classification under this contract from the first day on which work
is performed in the classification.
(iv) Fringe benefits not expressed as an hourly rate. Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the contract for a class
of laborers or mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the contractor may either pay the
benefit as stated in the wage determination or may pay another bona fide fringe benefit or an hourly cash equivalent thereof.
(v) Unfunded plans. If the contractor does not make payments to a trustee or other third person, the contractor may consider
as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide
fringe benefits under a plan or program, Provided, That the Secretary of Labor has found, upon the written request of the
contractor, in accordance with the criteria set forth in § 5.28, that the applicable standards of the Davis–Bacon Act have
been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the contractor to set aside in a separate account assets for the meeting of
obligations under the plan or program.
(vi) Interest. In the event of a failure to pay all or part of the wages required by the contract, the contractor will be required
to pay interest on any underpayment of wages.
(2) Withholding—
(i) Withholding requirements. The [write in name of Federal agency or the recipient of Federal assistance] may, upon its
own action, or must, upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor, withhold or cause to
be withheld from the contractor so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered necessary to satisfy
the liabilities of the prime contractor or any subcontractor for the full amount of wages and monetary relief, including
interest, required by the clauses set forth in paragraph (a) of this section for violations of this contract, or to satisfy any such
§ 5.5 Contract provisions and related matters., 29 C.F.R. § 5.5
© 2026 Thomson Reuters. No claim to original U.S. Government Works. 4
liabilities required by any other Federal contract, or federally assisted contract subject to Davis–Bacon labor standards,
that is held by the same prime contractor (as defined in § 5.2). The necessary funds may be withheld from the contractor
under this contract, any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally assisted contract that
is subject to Davis–Bacon labor standards requirements and is held by the same prime contractor, regardless of whether the
other contract was awarded or assisted by the same agency, and such funds may be used to satisfy the contractor liability
for which the funds were withheld. In the event of a contractor's failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any
apprentice or helper working on the site of the work (or otherwise working in construction or development of the project
under a development statute) all or part of the wages required by the contract, or upon the contractor's failure to submit
the required records as discussed in paragraph (a)(3)(iv) of this section, the [Agency] may on its own initiative and after
written notice to the contractor, sponsor, applicant, owner, or other entity, as the case may be, take such action as may be
necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased.
(ii) Priority to withheld funds. The Department has priority to funds withheld or to be withheld in accordance with paragraph
(a)(2)(i) or (b)(3)(i) of this section, or both, over claims to those funds by:
(A) A contractor's surety(ies), including without limitation performance bond sureties and payment bond sureties;
(B) A contracting agency for its reprocurement costs;
(C) A trustee(s) (either a court-appointed trustee or a U.S. trustee, or both) in bankruptcy of a contractor, or a
contractor's bankruptcy estate;
(D) A contractor's assignee(s);
(E) A contractor's successor(s); or
(F) A claim asserted under the Prompt Payment Act, 31 U.S.C. 3901–3907.
(3) Records and certified payrolls—
(i) Basic record requirements—
(A) Length of record retention. All regular payrolls and other basic records must be maintained by the contractor
and any subcontractor during the course of the work and preserved for all laborers and mechanics working at the site
of the work (or otherwise working in construction or development of the project under a development statute) for a
period of at least 3 years after all the work on the prime contract is completed.
(B) Information required. Such records must contain the name; Social Security number; last known address, telephone
number, and email address of each such worker; each worker's correct classification(s) of work actually performed;
hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash
§ 5.5 Contract provisions and related matters., 29 C.F.R. § 5.5

equivalents thereof of the types described in 40 U.S.C. 3141(2)(B) of the Davis–Bacon Act); daily and weekly number
of hours actually worked in total and on each covered contract; deductions made; and actual wages paid.
(C) Additional records relating to fringe benefits. Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under paragraph (a)(1)
(v) of this section that the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in
providing benefits under a plan or program described in 40 U.S.C. 3141(2)(B) of the Davis–Bacon Act, the contractor
must maintain records which show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable, that the plan or
program is financially responsible, and that the plan or program has been communicated in writing to the laborers or
mechanics affected, and records which show the costs anticipated or the actual cost incurred in providing such benefits.
(D) Additional records relating to apprenticeship. Contractors with apprentices working under approved programs
must maintain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs, the registration of the apprentices, and
the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the applicable programs.
(ii) Certified payroll requirements—
(A) Frequency and method of submission. The contractor or subcontractor must submit weekly, for each week in
which any DBA- or Related Acts-covered work is performed, certified payrolls to the [write in name of appropriate
Federal agency] if the agency is a party to the contract, but if the agency is not such a party, the contractor will
submit the certified payrolls to the applicant, sponsor, owner, or other entity, as the case may be, that maintains such
records, for transmission to the [write in name of agency]. The prime contractor is responsible for the submission of
all certified payrolls by all subcontractors. A contracting agency or prime contractor may permit or require contractors
to submit certified payrolls through an electronic system, as long as the electronic system requires a legally valid
electronic signature; the system allows the contractor, the contracting agency, and the Department of Labor to access
the certified payrolls upon request for at least 3 years after the work on the prime contract has been completed; and
the contracting agency or prime contractor permits other methods of submission in situations where the contractor is
unable or limited in its ability to use or access the electronic system.
(B) Information required. The certified payrolls submitted must set out accurately and completely all of the
information required to be maintained under paragraph (a)(3)(i)(B) of this section, except that full Social Security
numbers and last known addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses must not be included on weekly
transmittals. Instead, the certified payrolls need only include an individually identifying number for each worker (e.g.,
the last four digits of the worker's Social Security number). The required weekly certified payroll information may
be submitted using Optional Form WH–347 or in any other format desired. Optional Form WH–347 is available for
this purpose from the Wage and Hour Division website at https://www.dol.gov/sites/dolgov/files/WHD/legacy/files/
wh347/.pdf or its successor website. It is not a violation of this section for a prime contractor to require a subcontractor
to provide full Social Security numbers and last known addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses to the
prime contractor for its own records, without weekly submission by the subcontractor to the sponsoring government
agency (or the applicant, sponsor, owner, or other entity, as the case may be, that maintains such records).
(C) Statement of Compliance. Each certified payroll submitted must be accompanied by a “Statement of Compliance,”
signed by the contractor or subcontractor, or the contractor's or subcontractor's agent who pays or supervises the
payment of the persons working on the contract, and must certify the following:
§ 5.5 Contract provisions and related matters., 29 C.F.R. § 5.5
© 2026 Thomson Reuters. No claim to original U.S. Government Works. 6
(1) That the certified payroll for the payroll period contains the information required to be provided under
paragraph (a)(3)(ii) of this section, the appropriate information and basic records are being maintained under
paragraph (a)(3)(i) of this section, and such information and records are correct and complete;
(2) That each laborer or mechanic (including each helper and apprentice) working on the contract during the
payroll period has been paid the full weekly wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly, and that
no deductions have been made either directly or indirectly from the full wages earned, other than permissible
deductions as set forth in 29 CFR part 3; and
(3) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates and fringe benefits or cash
equivalents for the classification(s) of work actually performed, as specified in the applicable wage determination
incorporated into the contract.
(D) Use of Optional Form WH–347. The weekly submission of a properly executed certification set forth on the
reverse side of Optional Form WH–347 will satisfy the requirement for submission of the “Statement of Compliance”
required by paragraph (a)(3)(ii)(C) of this section.
(E) Signature. The signature by the contractor, subcontractor, or the contractor's or subcontractor's agent must be an
original handwritten signature or a legally valid electronic signature.
(F) Falsification. The falsification of any of the above certifications may subject the contractor or subcontractor to
civil or criminal prosecution under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 31 U.S.C. 3729.
(G) Length of certified payroll retention. The contractor or subcontractor must preserve all certified payrolls during
the course of the work and for a period of 3 years after all the work on the prime contract is completed.
(iii) Contracts, subcontracts, and related documents. The contractor or subcontractor must maintain this contract or
subcontract and related documents including, without limitation, bids, proposals, amendments, modifications, and
extensions. The contractor or subcontractor must preserve these contracts, subcontracts, and related documents during the
course of the work and for a period of 3 years after all the work on the prime contract is completed.
(iv) Required disclosures and access—
(A) Required record disclosures and access to workers. The contractor or subcontractor must make the records
required under paragraphs (a)(3)(i) through (iii) of this section, and any other documents that the [write the name of
the agency] or the Department of Labor deems necessary to determine compliance with the labor standards provisions
of any of the applicable statutes referenced by § 5.1, available for inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized
representatives of the [write the name of the agency] or the Department of Labor, and must permit such representatives
to interview workers during working hours on the job.
§ 5.5 Contract provisions and related matters., 29 C.F.R. § 5.5
© 2026 Thomson Reuters. No claim to original U.S. Government Works. 7
(B) Sanctions for non-compliance with records and worker access requirements. If the contractor or subcontractor
fails to submit the required records or to make them available, or refuses to permit worker interviews during working
hours on the job, the Federal agency may, after written notice to the contractor, sponsor, applicant, owner, or other
entity, as the case may be, that maintains such records or that employs such workers, take such action as may be
necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds. Furthermore, failure to
submit the required records upon request or to make such records available, or to permit worker interviews during
working hours on the job, may be grounds for debarment action pursuant to § 5.12. In addition, any contractor or
other person that fails to submit the required records or make those records available to WHD within the time WHD
requests that the records be produced will be precluded from introducing as evidence in an administrative proceeding
under 29 CFR part 6 any of the required records that were not provided or made available to WHD. WHD will take
into consideration a reasonable request from the contractor or person for an extension of the time for submission of
records. WHD will determine the reasonableness of the request and may consider, among other things, the location
of the records and the volume of production.
(C) Required information disclosures. Contractors and subcontractors must maintain the full Social Security number
and last known address, telephone number, and email address of each covered worker, and must provide them upon
request to the [write in name of appropriate Federal agency] if the agency is a party to the contract, or to the Wage and
Hour Division of the Department of Labor. If the Federal agency is not such a party to the contract, the contractor,
subcontractor, or both, must, upon request, provide the full Social Security number and last known address, telephone
number, and email address of each covered worker to the applicant, sponsor, owner, or other entity, as the case may
be, that maintains such records, for transmission to the [write in name of agency], the contractor, or the Wage and
Hour Division of the Department of Labor for purposes of an investigation or other compliance action.
(4) Apprentices and equal employment opportunity—
(i) Apprentices—
(A) Rate of pay. Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work they perform
when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with
the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of Apprenticeship (OA), or with a
State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the OA. A person who is not individually registered in the program, but
who has been certified by the OA or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be eligible for probationary
employment as an apprentice, will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work they perform
in the first 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such a program. In the event the OA or a State
Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the OA withdraws approval of an apprenticeship program, the contractor will
no longer be permitted to use apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until
an acceptable program is approved.
(B) Fringe benefits. Apprentices must be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship
program. If the apprenticeship program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of
fringe benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification. If the Administrator determines that
a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringe benefits must be paid in accordance
with that determination.
§ 5.5 Contract provisions and related matters., 29 C.F.R. § 5.5
© 2026 Thomson Reuters. No claim to original U.S. Government Works. 8
(C) Apprenticeship ratio. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeyworkers on the job site in any craft classification
must not be greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the registered program
or the ratio applicable to the locality of the project pursuant to paragraph (a)(4)(i)(D) of this section. Any worker
listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated in paragraph
(a)(4)(i)(A) of this section, must be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the
classification of work actually performed. In addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of
the ratio permitted under this section must be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination
for the work actually performed.
(D) Reciprocity of ratios and wage rates. Where a contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality
other than the locality in which its program is registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the
journeyworker's hourly rate) applicable within the locality in which the construction is being performed must be
observed. If there is no applicable ratio or wage rate for the locality of the project, the ratio and wage rate specified
in the contractor's registered program must be observed.
(ii) Equal employment opportunity. The use of apprentices and journeyworkers under this part must be in conformity with
the equal employment opportunity requirements of Executive Order 11246, as amended, and 29 CFR part 30.
(5) Compliance with Copeland Act requirements. The contractor shall comply with the requirements of 29 CFR part 3,
which are incorporated by reference in this contract.
(6) Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor must insert in any subcontracts the clauses contained in paragraphs
(a)(1) through (11) of this section, along with the applicable wage determination(s) and such other clauses or contract
modifications as the [write in the name of the Federal agency] may by appropriate instructions require, and a clause
requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses and wage determination(s) in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime
contractor is responsible for the compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with all the contract clauses
in this section. In the event of any violations of these clauses, the prime contractor and any subcontractor(s) responsible
will be liable for any unpaid wages and monetary relief, including interest from the date of the underpayment or loss, due
to any workers of lower-tier subcontractors, and may be subject to debarment, as appropriate.
(7) Contract termination: debarment. A breach of the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5 may be grounds for termination of
the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and a subcontractor as provided in 29 CFR 5.12.
(8) Compliance with Davis–Bacon and Related Act requirements. All rulings and interpretations of the Davis–Bacon and
Related Acts contained in 29 CFR parts 1, 3, and 5 are herein incorporated by reference in this contract.
(9) Disputes concerning labor standards. Disputes arising out of the labor standards provisions of this contract shall not be
subject to the general disputes clause of this contract. Such disputes shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures of
the Department of Labor set forth in 29 CFR parts 5, 6, and 7. Disputes within the meaning of this clause include disputes
between the contractor (or any of its subcontractors) and the contracting agency, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the
employees or their representatives.
(10) Certification of eligibility.

5.12(a).
(ii) No part of this contract shall be subcontracted to any person or firm ineligible for award of a Government contract
by virtue of 40 U.S.C. 3144(b) or § 5.12(a).
(iii) The penalty for making false statements is prescribed in the U.S. Code, Title 18 Crimes and Criminal Procedure, 18
U.S.C. 1001.
(11) Anti-retaliation. It is unlawful for any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten, restrain, coerce, blacklist,
harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, or to cause any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten,
restrain, coerce, blacklist, harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, any worker or job applicant for:
(i) Notifying any contractor of any conduct which the worker reasonably believes constitutes a violation of the DBA,
Related Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3;
(ii) Filing any complaint, initiating or causing to be initiated any proceeding, or otherwise asserting or seeking to assert on
behalf of themselves or others any right or protection under the DBA, Related Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3;
(iii) Cooperating in any investigation or other compliance action, or testifying in any proceeding under the DBA, Related
Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3; or
(iv) Informing any other person about their rights under the DBA, Related Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3.
(b) Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (CWHSSA). The Agency Head must cause or require the contracting officer
to insert the following clauses set forth in paragraphs (b)(1) through (5) of this section in full, or (for contracts covered by the
Federal Acquisition Regulation) by reference, in any contract in an amount in excess of $100,000 and subject to the overtime
provisions of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act. These clauses must be inserted in addition to the clauses
required by paragraph (a) of this section or 29 CFR 4.6 . As used in this paragraph (b), the terms “laborers and mechanics”
include watchpersons and guards.
(1) Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of the contract work which may require
or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any workweek
in which he or she is employed on such work to work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such laborer or
mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked
in excess of forty hours in such workweek.
(2) Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated damages. In the event of any violation of the clause set forth in
paragraph (b)(1) of this section the contractor and any subcontractor responsible therefor shall be liable for the unpaid
§ 5.5 Contract provisions and related matters., 29 C.F.R. § 5.5

wages and interest from the date of the underpayment. In addition, such contractor and subcontractor shall be liable to
the United States (in the case of work done under contract for the District of Columbia or a territory, to such District
or to such territory), for liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with respect to each individual
laborer or mechanic, including watchpersons and guards, employed in violation of the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1)
of this section, in the sum of $33 for each calendar day on which such individual was required or permitted to work in
excess of the standard workweek of forty hours without payment of the overtime wages required by the clause set forth
in paragraph (b)(1).
(3) Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages—
(i) Withholding process. The [write in the name of the Federal agency or the recipient of Federal assistance] may, upon
its own action, or must, upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor, withhold or
cause to be withheld from the contractor so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered necessary to
satisfy the liabilities of the prime contractor or any subcontractor for any unpaid wages; monetary relief, including interest;
and liquidated damages required by the clauses set forth in this paragraph (b) on this contract, any other Federal contract
with the same prime contractor, or any other federally assisted contract subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety
Standards Act that is held by the same prime contractor (as defined in § 5.2). The necessary funds may be withheld from
the contractor under this contract, any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally assisted
contract that is subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act and is held by the same prime contractor,
regardless of whether the other contract was awarded or assisted by the same agency, and such funds may be used to satisfy
the contractor liability for which the funds were withheld.
(ii) Priority to withheld funds. The Department has priority to funds withheld or to be withheld in accordance with paragraph
(a)(2)(i) or (b)(3)(i) of this section, or both, over claims to those funds by:
(A) A contractor's surety(ies), including without limitation performance bond sureties and payment bond sureties;
(B) A contracting agency for its reprocurement costs;
(C) A trustee(s) (either a court-appointed trustee or a U.S. trustee, or both) in bankruptcy of a contractor, or a
contractor's bankruptcy estate;
(D) A contractor's assignee(s);
(E) A contractor's successor(s); or
(F) A claim asserted under the Prompt Payment Act, 31 U.S.C. 3901–3907.
(4) Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor must insert in any subcontracts the clauses set forth in paragraphs (b)(1)
through (5) of this section and a clause requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts.
The prime contractor is responsible for compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with the clauses
set forth in paragraphs (b)(1) through (5). In the event of any violations of these clauses, the prime contractor and any
§ 5.5 Contract provisions and related matters., 29 C.F.R. § 5.5

subcontractor(s) responsible will be liable for any unpaid wages and monetary relief, including interest from the date of
the underpayment or loss, due to any workers of lower-tier subcontractors, and associated liquidated damages and may
be subject to debarment, as appropriate.
(5) Anti-retaliation. It is unlawful for any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten, restrain, coerce, blacklist,
harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, or to cause any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten,
restrain, coerce, blacklist, harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, any worker or job applicant for:
(i) Notifying any contractor of any conduct which the worker reasonably believes constitutes a violation of the Contract
Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (CWHSSA) or its implementing regulations in this part;
(ii) Filing any complaint, initiating or causing to be initiated any proceeding, or otherwise asserting or seeking to assert on
behalf of themselves or others any right or protection under CWHSSA or this part;
(iii) Cooperating in any investigation or other compliance action, or testifying in any proceeding under CWHSSA or this
part; or
(iv) Informing any other person about their rights under CWHSSA or this part.
(c) CWHSSA required records clause. In addition to the clauses contained in paragraph (b) of this section, in any contract subject
only to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act and not to any of the other laws referenced by § 5.1, the Agency
Head must cause or require the contracting officer to insert a clause requiring that the contractor or subcontractor must maintain
regular payrolls and other basic records during the course of the work and must preserve them for a period of 3 years after all
the work on the prime contract is completed for all laborers and mechanics, including guards and watchpersons, working on the
contract. Such records must contain the name; last known address, telephone number, and email address; and social security
number of each such worker; each worker's correct classification(s) of work actually performed; hourly rates of wages paid;
daily and weekly number of hours actually worked; deductions made; and actual wages paid. Further, the Agency Head must
cause or require the contracting officer to insert in any such contract a clause providing that the records to be maintained under
this paragraph must be made available by the contractor or subcontractor for inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized
representatives of the (write the name of agency) and the Department of Labor, and the contractor or subcontractor will permit
such representatives to interview workers during working hours on the job.
(d) Incorporation of contract clauses and wage determinations by reference. Although agencies are required to insert the contract
clauses set forth in this section, along with appropriate wage determinations, in full into covered contracts, and contractors and
subcontractors are required to insert them in any lower-tier subcontracts, the incorporation by reference of the required contract
clauses and appropriate wage determinations will be given the same force and effect as if they were inserted in full text.
(e) Incorporation by operation of law. The contract clauses set forth in this section (or their equivalent under the Federal
Acquisition Regulation), along with the correct wage determinations, will be considered to be a part of every prime contract
required by the applicable statutes referenced by § 5.1 to include such clauses, and will be effective by operation of law,
whether or not they are included or incorporated by reference into such contract, unless the Administrator grants a variance,
tolerance, or exemption from the application of this paragraph. Where the clauses and applicable wage determinations are
§ 5.5 Contract provisions and related matters., 29 C.F.R. § 5.5
© 2026 Thomson Reuters. No claim to original U.S. Government Works. 12
effective by operation of law under this paragraph, the prime contractor must be compensated for any resulting increase in
wages in accordance with applicable law.
