The role of the relativistic amplitudes for a number of O(k) processes usually neglected in potential model calculations of NN bremsstrahlung is investigated.In particular, we consider the A excitation pole contributions related to the one-pion and one-rho exchange and in addition include the exchange contributions induced by the radiative u, p~7 rp decays. The contributions are calculated from relativistic Born amplitudes 6tted to A production and absorption data in the energy range up to 1 GeV and then used to supplement potential model and soft photon calculations for nucleon-nucleon bremsstrahlung.The eKects on NNp observables, although moderate in general, are found to be important in some kinematic domains.PACS number(s): 13.75.Cs, 25.20.x, 25.40.h
