Our negotiated F&A rate agreement ends 9/30/00 and a new one (with a
different rate) will take effect on October 1st. As per Section G.7. of "OMB
A-21" we will maintain the current F&A rates for awards that are in
existence prior to 9/30/00.

My question: We will maintain the existing rates. Can we also continue to
apply any current agreement special provisions to the awards that carry over
in to the new agreement period? In other words, does the current agreement
stay in effect for these carry over projects or only the rates? (Some of our
special provisions will determine items that will incur F&A charges.)
