time which may be required to do so, and other
factors which affect the value to the AGENCY of
the work performed at the time of termination.

this subsection exceed the amount which would
have been made using the formula set forth in the
previous paragraph.
If it is determined for any reason that the
CONSULTANT was not in default or that the

shall be deemed to be a termination for the
convenience of the AGENCY in accordance with
the provision of this AGREEMENT.

officer of the CONSULTANT or any of its
supervisory personnel assigned to the project, or,
dissolution of the partnership, termination of the
corporation, or disaffiliation of the principally
involved employee, the surviving members of the
CONSULTANT hereby agree to complete the work
under the terms of the AGREEMENT, if requested
to do so by the AGENCY. The subsection shall not
be a bar to renegotiation of the AGREEMENT
between the surviving members of the
CONSULTANT and the AGENCY, if the
AGENCY so chooses.
In the event of the death of any of the parties listed
in the previous paragraph, should the surviving
members of the CONSULTANT, with the
AGENCY's concurrence, desire to terminate this
AGREEMENT, payment shall be made as set forth
in the second paragraph of this section.
Payment for any part of the work by the AGENCY
shall not constitute a waiver by the AGENCY of
any remedies of any type it may have against the
CONSULTANT for any breach of this
AGREEMENT by the CONSULTANT, or for
failure of the CONSULTANT to perform work
required of it by the AGENCY. Forbearance of any
rights under the AGREEMENT will not constitute
waiver of entitlement to exercise those rights with

AGREEMENT as provided hereinafter. Such payment shall be full compensation for work performed or
services rendered and for all labor, materials, supplies, equipment, and incidentals necessary to complete the
work. The CONSULTANT shall conform with all applicable portions of 48 CFR 31.
1. Hourly Rates
The CONSULTANT shall be paid by the AGENCY for work done, based upon the negotiated hourly
rates shown in Exhibits "D" and "E" attached hereto and by this reference made part of this
AGREEMENT. The rates listed shall be applicable for the first 12-month period and shall be subject to
negotiation for the following 12-month period upon request of the CONSULTANT or the AGENCY. If
negotiations are not conducted for the second or subsequent 12-month periods within 90 days after
completion of the previous period, the rates listed in this AGREEMENT or subsequent written
authorization(s) from the AGENCY shall be utilized for the life of the AGREEMENT. The rates are
inclusive of direct salaries, payroll additives, overhead, and fee.
In the event renegotiation of the hourly rates is conducted, the AGENCY reserves the right to audit for
any change in the overhead rate currently in use by the CONSULTANT and modify the hourly rates to
be paid to the CONSULTANT subsequent to the renegotiation accordingly. Any changes in the
CONSULTANT's fixed hourly rates may include salary or overhead adjustments.

Direct nonsalary costs will be reimbursed at the actual cost to the CONSULTANT. These charges may
include, but are not limited to the following items: travel, printing, long distance telephone, supplies,
computer charges, and fees of subconsultants. Air or train travel will only be reimbursed to economy
class levels unless otherwise approved by the AGENCY. Automobile mileage for travel will be
reimbursed as the current rate approved for AGENCY employees and shall be supported by the date and
time of each trip with origin and designation of such trips. Subsistence and lodging expenses will be
reimbursed at the same rate as for AGENCY employees. The billing for nonsalary cost, directly
identifiable with the PROJECT, shall be an itemized listing of the charges supported by the original bills,
invoices, expense accounts, and miscellaneous supporting data retained by the CONSULTANT. Copies
of the original supporting documents shall be supplied to the AGENCY upon request. Ali above charges
must be necessary for the services provided under this AGREEMENT.
3. Management Reserve Fund
The AGENCY may desire to establish a Management Reserve Fund to provide the Agreement
Administrator the flexibility of authorizing additional funds to the AGREEMENT for allowable
unforeseen costs, or reimbursing the CONSULTANT for additional work beyond that already defined in
this AGREEMENT. Such authorization(s) shall be in writing and shall not exceed the lesser of $50,000
or 10% of the Total Amount Authorized as shown in the heading of this AGREEMENT. The amount
included for the Management Reserve Fund is shown in the heading of this agreement. This fund may

Page 15 of 19
excess of the "Management Reserve Fund" shall be made in accordance with Section XIV, "Extra
Work."
Maximum Amount Payable
The maximum amount payable for completion of work under this AGREEMENT shall not exceed the
amount shown in the heading of this AGREEMENT. The maximum amount payable includes the
Management Reserve Fund, but does not include payment for extra work as stipulated in Section XIV,
"Extra Work." No minimum amount payable is guaranteed under this AGREEMENT.
Monthly Progress Payments
Progress payments may be claimed on a monthly basis for all costs authorized in 1 and 2 above. The
monthly invoices shall be supported by detailed statements for hours expended at the rates established in
Exhibits "D" and "E", including names and classifications of all employees, and invoices for all direct
nonsalary expenses. To provide a means of verifying the invoiced salary costs for the consultant's
employees, the agency may conduct employee interviews. These interviews may consist of recording the
names, titles, salary rates, and present duties of those employees performing work on the project at the
time of the interview.
Inspection of Cost Records
The CONSULTANT and his/her subconsultants shall keep available for inspection by representatives of
the AGENCY, STATE, and the United States, for a period of three years after final payment, the cost
records and accounts pertaining to this AGREEMENT and all items related to or bearing upon these
records with the following exception: if any litigation, claim, or audit is started before the three-year
period, the records shall be retained until all litigation, claims, or audit findings involving the records
have been resolved. The three-year retention period begins when the CONSULTANT receives final
payment.
Final Payment
Final payment of any balance due the CONSULTANT of the gross amount earned will be made
promptly upon its verification by the AGENCY after the completion of the work under this
AGREEMENT, contingent upon receipt of all PS&E, plans, maps, notes, reports, and other related
documents which are required to be furnished under this AGREEMENT. Acceptance of such final
payment by the CONSULTANT shall constitute a release of all claims for payment which the
CONSULTANT may have against the AGENCY unless such claims are specifically reserved in writing
and transmitted to the AGENCY by the CONSULTANT prior to its acceptance. Said final payment
shall not, however, be a bar to any claims that the AGENCY may have against the CONSULTANT or to
any remedies the AGENCY may pursue with respect to such claims.
The payment of any billing will not constitute agreement as to the appropriateness of any item and at the
time of final audit, all required adjustments will be made and reflected in a final payment. In the event
that such final audit reveals an overpayment to the CONSULTANT, the CONSULTANT will refund
such overpayment to the AGENCY within ninety (90) days of notice of the overpayment. Such refund
shall not constitute a waiver by the CONSULTANT or any claims relating to the validity ora finding by
the AGENCY of overpayment.
