However, any costs incurred by Local Agency prior to the Effective Date <br />shall not be reimbursed absent specific allowance of pre -award costs and indication that the Federal Award <br />funding is retroactive. The State shall pay Local Agency for costs or expenses incurred or performance by <br />the Local Agency prior to the Effective Date, only if (1) the Grant Funds involve federal funding and (2) <br />federal laws, rules, and regulations applicable to the Work provide for such retroactive payments to the Local <br />Agency. Any such retroactive payments shall comply with State Fiscal Rules and be made in accordance <br />with the provisions of this Agreement. The applicable principles described in 2 C.F.R. Part 200 shall govern <br />the State's obligation to reimburse all costs incurred by Local Agency and submitted to the State for <br />reimbursement hereunder, and Local Agency shall comply with all such principles. The State shall reimburse <br />Local Agency for the federal -aid share of properly documented costs related to the Work after review and <br />approval thereof, subject to the provisions of this Agreement and Exhibit C. Local Agency costs for Work <br />performed prior to the Effective Date shall not be reimbursed absent specific allowance of pre -award costs <br />and indication that the Federal Award funding is retroactive.

Unilateral Modification of Agreement Funds Budget by State Option Letter <br />The State may, at its discretion, issue an "Option Letter" to Local Agency to add or modify Work phases in <br />the Work schedule in Exhibit C if such modifications do not increase total budgeted Agreement Funds. Such <br />Option Letters shall amend and update Exhibit C, Sections 2 or 4 of the Table, and sub -sections B and C of <br />the Exhibit C. Option Letters shall not be deemed valid until signed by the State Controller or an authorized <br />delegate. This is NOT a Notice to Proceed. Modification of Exhibit C by unilateral Option Letter is <br />permitted only in the specific scenarios listed below. The State will exercise such options by providing Local <br />Agency a fully executed Option Letter, in a form substantially equivalent to Exhibit B. Such Option Letters <br />will be incorporated into this Agreement. This applies to the entire Scope of Work. <br />i. Option to Begin a Phase and/or Increase or Decrease the Encumbrance Amount <br />The State may require by Option Letter that Local Agency begin a new Work phase that may include <br />Design, Construction, Environmental, Utilities, ROW Incidentals or Miscellaneous Work (but may not <br />include Right of Way Acquisition/Relocation or Railroads) as detailed in Exhibit A. Such Option <br />Letters may not modify the other terms and conditions stated in this Agreement and must decrease the <br />amount budgeted and encumbered for one or more other Work phases so that the total amount of <br />budgeted Agreement Funds remains the same. The State may also change the funding sources so long <br />as the amount budgeted remains the same and the Local Agency contribution does not increase. The <br />State may also issue a unilateral Option Letter to increase and/or decrease the total encumbrance amount <br />of two or more existing Work phases, as long as the total amount of budgeted Agreement Funds remains <br />the same, replacing the original Agreement Funding exhibit (Exhibit C) with an updated Exhibit C-1 <br />(with subsequent exhibits labeled C-2, C-3, etc.). <br />ii. Option to Transfer Funds from One Phase to Another Phase. <br />The State may require or permit Local Agency to transfer Agreement Funds from one Work phase <br />(Design, Construction, Environmental, Utilities, ROW Incidentals or Miscellaneous) to another phase <br />as a result of changes to State, federal, and local match funding. In such case, the original funding exhibit <br />(Exhibit C) will be replaced with an updated Exhibit C-1 (with subsequent exhibits labeled C-2, C-3, <br />etc.) attached to the Option Letter. The Agreement Funds transferred from one Work phase to another <br />are subject to the same terms and conditions stated in the original Agreement with the total budgeted <br />Agreement Funds remaining the same.
