receipt. LaBella will make its best effort to complete all of the identified tasks within the overall

complete the scope of services for the project. We will not exceed the total estimated fee without

completed. Estimated Time and Materials phases will be invoiced based on the actual hours incurred.

only. LaBella will bill for actual hours and reimbursable expenses incurred. While LaBella will make its
best effort to complete each of these phases within the estimated amounts, it is possible that it may

extensive photocopying, and map reproductions, will be tracked under a separate Phase RE00, if
