• If the Contracting Officer determines that this method results in paying a disproportionately higher ratio of fixed fee than the percentage of work the Contractor has completed, then the Contracting Officer may suspend further payment of any fixed fee until the Contractor has made sufficient progress to justify further payment, up to the agreed percentage.
• Because the clauses entitled "Allowable Cost and Payment" (FAR 52.216-7) and "Fixed ree" (FAR 52.216-8) are incorporated into this contract, the terms and conditions of these clauses apply after total payments of fixed fee reach eighty-five percent (85%) of the total fixed fee.

If performance is considered satisfactory by the Government, the fixed fee is payable at the expiration of the agreed upon period, upon contractor statement that the level of effort specified in the contract has been expended in performing the contract work. In the event the contractor has not expended the total level of effort al the expiration of the contract period, the amount of fee owed to the contractor will correspond to the percentage of total level of effort expended during the contract period of performance. For example, if the contractor has expended 85% of the total level of effort, then the contractor is entitled to a corresponding percentage of the fixed fee amount provided that the performance has been satisfactory.
