Sec. 1274.701  Suspension or termination.


    A cooperative agreement provides both NASA and the recipient the 
ability to terminate the agreement if it is in their best interests to 
do so. For example, NASA may terminate the agreement if the recipient is 
not making anticipated technical progress, if the recipient materially 
fails to comply with

the terms of the agreement, if the recipient materially changes the 
objective of the agreement, or if appropriated funds are not available 
to support the program. Similarly, the recipient may terminate the 
agreement if, for example, technical progress is not being made, if the 
firms are shifting their technical emphasis, or if other technological 
advances have made the effort obsolete. NASA or the recipient may also 
suspend the cooperative agreement for a short period of time if an 
assessment needs to be made as to whether the agreement should be 
terminated.
