NEC intends to extend the Contract to allow for a further 49 Delivered Savings as more fully described in VII.1.4) by reference to Regulation 72(1)(b) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 ("PCR"). For the purposes of assessing whether the conditions with Regulation 72(1)(b) PCR have been satisfied, NEC has considered it necessary and proportionate to calculate the value of the Contract in the Contract Award Notice and this extension on the basis of the quantum of phosphorus secured. Consequently, notwithstanding the duration as stated in this Modification Notice, the commitment to deliver the total phosphorus (and associated nitrogen offset) as valued in this Modification Notice and the Contract Award Notice during the initial 12 month and extension of the Contract by 6 months may result in circumstances where the actual duration of Contract extends beyond the initial duration and extension of the Contract.
