Licensee’s Manager for the Center for GIS and Licensor’s GIS Coordinator will jointly develop appropriate and mutually acceptable scope of work, specifications, procedures, resource estimates and schedules for projects involving the resources of the Center for GIS. In the event that more than 500 hours of technical assistance are required by Licensor in a one year time period, and, providing Licensee has the resources to provide additional technical assistance, said hours exceeding 500 may be credited toward the next academic school year or, Licensor may also negotiate a "fee for services" agreement with Licensee.
