(7) If this Contract is terminated or the estimated cost is not increased, the Government and the Contractor shall negotiate an equitable distribution of all property produced or purchased under the Contract, based upon the share of costs incurred by each. #### C.3 Limitation of Funds (1) The parties to this Contract estimate that performance of this Contract will not cost the Government more than the estimated cost specified on Page 2, Part II of this Contract (Form OBD-47) hereof. The Contractor agrees to use its best efforts to perform the work specified in the Contract. (2) Page 2 of the Contract (Form OBD-47) specifies the amount presently available for payment by the Government and allotted to this Contract and the period of performance it is estimated the allotted amount will cover. The parties contemplate that the Government will allot additional funds incrementally to the Contract up to the full estimated cost to the Government specified in the Contract. The Contractor agrees to perform, or have performed, work on the Contract up to the point at which the total amount paid and payable by the Government under the Contract will be totaled to the amount allotted by the Government to the Contract. (3) The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer whenever it has reason to believe that the costs it expects to incur under this Contract in the next 30 days, when added to all costs previously incurred, will exceed 75 percent of the total amount so far allotted to the Contract by the Government.

(6) Except as required by other provisions of this Contract—(1) the Government is not obligated to reimburse the Contractor for costs incurred in excess of the total amount allotted by the Government to this Contract; and (2) the Contractor is not obligated to continue performance under this Contract (including actions under the Termination clause of this Contract) or otherwise incur costs in excess of the amount then allotted to the Contract by the Government until the Contracting Officer notifies the Contractor in writing that the amount allotted by the Government has been increased and specifies an increased amount, which shall then constitute the total amount allotted by the Government to this Contract. (7) The estimated cost shall be increased to the extent that the amount allotted by the Government exceeds the estimated cost specified in the Contract. (8) Nothing in this clause shall affect the right of the Government to terminate this Contract. If this Contract is terminated, the Government and the Contractor shall negotiate an equitable distribution of all property produced or purchased under the Contract, based upon the share of cost specified in the Contract equaling the percentage of completion of the work contemplated by this Contract. #### C.3 Contractor Employee Residency Requirement All contractor employees assigned to this contract and working within the United States shall meet the DOJ Residency Requirement. The Residency Requirements state, that for three of the five years immediately prior to applying for a position, the individual must have: (1) resided in the United States; (2) worked for the United States overseas in a Federal or military capacity, or (3) be a dependent of a Federal or military employee serving overseas. This requirement can be waived for short-term (i.e., those employees performing duties for a cumulative total of 14 days or less) if there is a critical need for their specialized or unique skills (for example, interpreters for rare foreign languages). These individuals must be United States citizens or Permanent Resident Aliens. A waiver request from the head of the Component outlining the circumstances along with the requisite cleaning equipment shall be submitted to the Department Security Officer (DSO) for approval. Each waiver request will be reviewed by the DSO and a determination made on a case-by-case basis. Additionally, a contractor employee who is not a U.S. citizen must be from a country called with the United States. Since the countries on the Allied Countries list are subject to change, the head of the Component shall review the following website for current information: https://www.lcg.gov/pemployment/citizen.htm Previous Editions are Obsolete Form OBD-47 (CLAUSES) (Revised 3-2005) Page 3 of 3 EFTA00187129 U.S. Department of Justice Request, Authorization and Contract for Services of Litigative Consultant Operation Leap Year, 2006R01181 Contract No. 7L-USA-04-0207 Attachment 2 Litigative Consultant Statement of Work The United States Attorneys’ Office (USAO) conducts litigation in the Southern District of Florida on behalf of the United States of America. Frequently, there is a need for litigative consultant work prior to a case going to trial and during the trial. When appropriate, and pursuant to guidelines implemented by the Department of Justice, a USAO may enter into agreements with litigative consultants, functioning as independent contractors, to conduct record reviews and data analyses by written report. In this particular case, the USAO has determined that a litigative consultant is in litigation for the government and such services are not available from the agency being represented or from another agency. Through this statement of work, the USAO is seeking the services of a contractor to review records, analyze data, interview witnesses, and other work pertinent to the case. Summary of Case This case involves the solicitation of more than 12 minors to engage in prostitution and interstate travel to engage in sexual activity with minors. The case currently is under investigation. Four (4) targets have been identified to date. Retention Dr. Anna Salter is needed to serve as a consultant prior to indictment regarding the psychological traits of the defendant, obstacles in interviewing victims of sexual exploitation, and the effects of sexual abuse on victims. Dr. Anna Salter will be available to commence work for the USAO upon receipt of an executed copy of this Agreement or a verbal notice to proceed. Dr. Anna Salter agrees not to work for any other person or party involved in this case on matters relating to this case for thirty(30) days after she is verbally retained, or upon acceptance of this Agreement, unless notified earlier by the USAO. Should the thirty(30) days lapse without receipt of an executed agreement or notice to proceed, Dr. Salter is free to accept work from any other party. EFTA00187130 ## Scope of Work Dr. Anna Salter shall provide all plant, labor, material and equipment except as otherwise provided to perform litigative consultant services as required by USAO and in connection with such services agrees to perform such document review, studies and research by written report as an litigative consultant with respect to Dr. Salter's findings. Dr. Anna Salter may assist the USAO in the obtaining of one or more additional consultants, as needed to support the contractor in person or by written report, who are competent and willing to render a scientifically-supportable opinion and sign an appropriate affidavit, acceptable to the consultant, prepared by the USAO, based upon the findings of the consultant and the facts of the Case. Dr. Anna Salter must exercise neutrality and maintain independence. Dr. Salter shall determine the manner in which the services are to be performed and the specific hours to be worked by Dr. Salter. Dr. Anna Salter will be of good professional standing and moral character, generally board eligible or board certified in the area of specialty or having other appropriate qualifications through training or experience; to act as the USAO's litigative consultant in the Case, the rendering of oral and written opinions, the signing of affidavits, and directly consulting with the USAO. The full scope of Dr. Salter's work will be determined as the matter proceeds, and will be subject to the needs and requests of USAO. Occasionally, the complexity of the case requires more review hours than initially estimated. Any time it becomes apparent to Dr. Salter that she will need to exceed the time and cost estimates provided to complete her work, she will provide USAO with a revised estimate and shall proceed only after being granted permission by USAO.
