resumes where submitted with its proposal and who are necessary to fulfill the
requirements of the contract as "key personnel". No substitutions may be made
except in accordance with this clause.
(b) The Contractor understands that during the first ninety (90) days of the

H-3 LEVEL OF EFFORT TASK ORDERS
(a) In the performance of each task order issued under this contract, the
Contractor agrees to provide the level of effort specified in the task order and
in accordance with this provision.
(b) The level of effort per task order shall be expended at the average monthly
rate specified therein. It is understood and agreed that the rate of direct
labor hours expended each month may fluctuate in pursuit of the technical
objective, provided such fluctuation does not result in the use of the total
hours of effort prior to the expiration of the term of the task order.
(c) The Contractor is required to notify the Contracting Officer when any of the
following situations occur, or are anticipated to occur: If during any three
consecutive months the monthly average is exceeded by 25% or, at any time it is

the monthly average will be used during any given month; or, when 85% of the
total level of effort has been expended.
(d) If, during the term of the contract, the Contractor finds it necessary to
accelerate the expenditure of direct labor under a task order to such an extent
that the total hours of effort specified would be used prior to the expiration
of the term, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing
setting forth the acceleration required, the probable benefits which would
result, and an offer to undertake the acceleration at no increase in the
estimated cost or fixed fee together with an offer setting forth a proposed
level of effort, cost breakdown, and proposed fixed-fee for continuation of the
work until expiration of the term hereof. The offer shall provide that the work
proposed will be subject to the terms and conditions of this contract and any
additions or changes required by then current law, regulations, or directives,
and that the offer, with a written notice of acceptance by the Contracting
Officer, shall constitute a binding contract. The Contractor shall not
accelerate any effort until receipt of such written approval by the Contracting
Officer. Any agreement to accelerate will be formalized by contract
modification.
(e) The Contracting Officer may, by written order, direct the Contractor to
accelerate the expenditure of direct labor under a task order such that the
labor-hours of effort specified therein would be used prior to the expiration of
the term. This order shall specify the acceleration required and the resulting
revised term. The Contractor shall acknowledge this order within ten days of
receipt.
(f) If the total level of effort specified in each task order is not provided by
the Contractor during the term of the task order, the Contracting Officer shall
either (i) reduce the fixed fee of this contract as follows:
Fee Reduction = Fixed Fee x (Required ▇▇▇ Hours - Expended ▇▇▇ Hours)
Required ▇▇▇ Hours
or (ii) subject to the provisions of the clause of this contract entitled
"Limitation of Cost," require the Contractor to continue to perform the work
until the total number of hours of direct labor specified in the task order
shall have been expended, at no increase in the fixed fee of this contract.
(g) In the event the Government fails to fully fund the task order in a timely
manner, the term of the task order may be extended accordingly with no change to
cost or fee. If the Government fails to fully fund the task order, the fee will
be adjusted in direct proportion to that effort which was performed.
(h) Notwithstanding any of the provisions of the above paragraphs, the
Contractor may furnish labor-hours up to five percent in excess of the total
direct labor-hours specified in the task order provided that the additional
effort is furnished within the term hereof, and provided further that no
increase in the estimated cost or fixed-fee is required, and no adjustment in
the fixed-fee shall be made provided that the Contractor has delivered at least
95% of the level of effort specified in the task order.
(i) It is understood that the mix of labor categories provided by the Contractor
under the task order, as well as the distribution of effort among those
categories, may vary considerably from the initial mix and distribution of
effort which was estimated by the Government or proposed by the Contractor.
(j) Nothing herein shall be construed to alter or waive any of the rights or
obligations of either party pursuant to the Clause entitled "Limitations of
Costs" or Limitation of Funds," either of which incorporated herein applies to
each task order under this contract.
