This Pre- Construction Services fee shall be included within the GMP. Should the Board fail to approve the GMP, thus ending the Project, or should the Project be terminated or discontinued for any other reason the CMAR shall remain entitled to the fee for Pre-Construction Services, but not the CMAR fee. 3.2. Provided that the Total Construction Budget remains $TBD, the CMAR Fee shall not exceed $ TBD, subject to modification and limitation as set forth herein. If the Owner changes the Total Construction Budget, the CMAR Fee shall not exceed three percent (3.75%) of the sum of (i) the Cost of the Work, (ii) the CMAR-GMP Contingency, and (iii) the CMAR General Conditions, (but not including the Early Completion Bonus Fund) all as more fully defined in this Contract, as of the date when the final GMP is established and approved by the Owner, subject to modification and limitation as set forth herein. The CMAR Fee will include all CMAR home office personnel costs, including officers as well as home office and local office support staff not included in General Conditions below, together with all other CMAR overhead costs and profit. This Fee shall also include all home office quality control and safety reviews, as well as all required services of a home office Project executive, by whatever name called. CMAR costs which are not to be included in the CMAR Fee are the costs of all Subcontracts, on-site field staff, General Conditions costs (as provided below), and the CMAR-GMP Contingency described below. 3.3. When a GMP is established and approved for a defined phase of the Work, the CMAR Fee for that GMP shall be converted to a lump sum and be included in the GMP. When the final GMP is established and approved, the CMAR agrees that the cumulative CMAR Fee shall not exceed the maximum amount set forth above in paragraph 3.2, and shall not cause the final GMP to exceed the Total Construction Budget approved by the Owner. Thereafter, the CMAR Fee shall not be adjusted unless cumulative Owner requested Change Orders to the Work of the Project adjust the total Cost of the Work in the total cumulative GMP in excess of FIVE (5.0%) percent.
