Sec.  1274.801  Adjustments to performance costs.


    In order to accomplish program objectives, there may be occasions 
where additional contributions (cash and/or in-kind contributions) by 
NASA and the recipient beyond the initial agreement may be needed. There 
may also be occasions where actual costs of NASA and the recipient may 
be less than initially agreed. In cases where program costs are 
adjusted, prior to execution of a modification to the agreement, mutual 
agreement between NASA and the recipient shall also be reached on the 
corresponding changes in program requirements such as schedule, work 
statements and milestone payments. Funding for any work required beyond 
the initial funding level of the cooperative agreement,

shall require submission by the recipient of a detailed proposal to the 
agreement officer. Prior to execution of a modification increasing 
NASA's initial cost share or funding levels, detailed cost analysis 
techniques may be applied, which may include requests for audits 
services and/or application of other pricing support techniques. Any 
adjustments or modifications that result in a change to the performance 
costs of the cooperative agreement shall continue to maintain the share 
ratio requirements (normally 50/50) stated in Sec.  1274.204(b).
