following six categories of food items (each, a "Menu Category "): beverage <br />(composed of juice and non - alcoholic drinks other than milk); baked goods; produce <br />(composed of fruits and vegetables); dairy; meat; and grocery items (composed of the <br />food items in the menu that are not otherwise included in one of the preceding <br />categories). Each Menu Category will be ascribed a percentage (the "Category <br />Weighting ") representing the proportion of the Client Menu that such Menu Category <br />approximately represents based on purchasing levels during the Base Period. Each <br />Category Weighting will then be multiplied by the percentage change in the <br />corresponding Bureau of Labor Statistics ( "BLS ") category compiled by the U.S. <br />Department of Labor and published at www.bis.gov for the Base Period, and the <br />results of each such calculation will be added together to arrive at the overall <br />percentage change which will represent the Market Basket of Products. For the <br />avoidance of doubt, the BLS categories to be multiplied by the Category Weightings <br />are (1) Beverage, All Urban Consumers, U.S. City Average; (2) Baked Goods, All <br />Urban Consumers, U.S. City Average; (3) Produce, All Urban Consumers, U.S. City <br />Average; (4) Dairy, All Urban Consumers, U.S. City Average; (5) Meat, All Urban <br />Consumers, U.S. City Average; and (6) Food, All Urban Consumers, U.S. City <br />Average. In the event that there are any changes in the method in which the BLS <br />reports its annual statistics, including any changes or modifications to any of the <br />applicable BLS categories, the parties agree to negotiate a mutually agreeable <br />modification to the appropriate Market Basket of Products category or categories or <br />the methodology described above. If the parties do not agree on such a modification, <br />ARAMARK shall have the right to terminate the Agreement upon 90 days' prior <br />written notice. The Market Basket of Products is designed to approximate price <br />adjustments with product cost increases at the facility or facilities covered by this <br />Agreement. The Market Basket of Products is an estimate of food costs only and <br />actual costs may vary. While the Menu Categories attempt to approximate the <br />products served at the facility or facilities covered by this Agreement, they may not <br />precisely parallel actual usage or the BLS categories listed above. <br />b. Please refer to Attachment C for an example of the Market Basket of Products <br />calculation. <br />c. The yearly percentage change shall not increase more than five percent 5% in any <br />year. The percentage shall be applied to the then - current per meal price to determine <br />the price for the subsequent 12 -month period, and such unit price shall be effective <br />the first (1st) day of such 12 -month period. <br />b. ARAMARK shall submit to the CITY on the first day of every week, for the <br />preceding week, an invoice for inmate meals ordered or served whichever is greater, and Fresh <br />Favorites meals ordered by inmates. The statements will reflect the preceding week's food <br />services detailing the exact number of meals served on a daily basis as follows: <br />1. Actual number of adult inmate meals <br />2. Meals provided through the "Fresh Favorites" program <br />3. Any additional food or beverage services, as required <br />3 <br />
