Contractor will quarterly provide Owner a list of the upcoming Contractor scheduled audits of the Appendix B Subcontractors and audits of the Subcontractors listed on Exhibit P-1, and Owner may designate which of such audits it would like to attend. Following Contractor’s receipt of notice that Owner intends to attend an audit, Contractor will keep Owner informed of any material changes to the time, location or substance of such audit. Where required by Law, and for the commercially critical items listed in Exhibit CC, Contractor shall include in the applicable Subcontracts access rights at each tier of a procurement, so that the procurement documents provide for access to the applicable Subcontractors’ plant facilities and records for inspection or audit by Owner, its designated representative, and/or other Persons authorized by the Parties. To the extent practical, Owner will coordinate with Contractor in the exercise of such inspection and audit rights so that Contractor has notice of Owner’s exercise of such right and has an opportunity to be present during such inspection or audit.
