The performance of the work shall be at no cost to the State. C. The maximum amount payable to the Local Agency under this contract shall be $406,536.00 ($412,000.00 less $5,464.00, the estimated federal share of CDOT - incurred costs), unless such amount is increased by a written supplemental contract or Funding Letter. If a Funding Letter is used to increase/ decrease the available fund under this contract, the Funding Letter will be in the form substantially equivalent to that of Exhibit A, which is attached hereto and made a part hereof.

If the Local Agency is to be billed for CDOT incurred direct costs, the billing procedure shall be as follows: Upon receipt of each bill from the State, the Local Agency will remit to the State the amount billed no later than 30 days after receipt of each bill.
