Presumably ji20874, you used subparagraphs 1 and 3 of the prescription. If so, I don't understand how excluding subparagraph 2 allowed you to consider any extension expressed in subparagraph 1 as a stand-alone contract. What perplexed me initially is how one can use fewer than all three. I appreciate your perspective and further explanation.

The prescription at FAR 17.208(g) for exercising FAR clause 52.217-9 uses the phrase "any or all" related to subparagraphs (1) - ...preliminary written notice of its intent to extend the contract; (2) -...the contract includes an extension of the option; and (3) - A specified limitation on the total duration of the contract. Has anyone ever used just one or two of the subparagraphs? If so, can you briefly explain why?
