(f) The Government may at any time before termination allot additional funds for performing the contract. (g) The termination provisions of this clause do not limit the rights of the Government under the clause entitled "Default." The provisions of this clause are limited to the work and allotment of funds for the contract as set forth in paragraph (a) of this clause. This clause no longer applies once the Government fully funds the contract, except with regard to the rights or obligations of the parties concerning equitable adjustments negotiated under paragraphs (d) and (e) of this clause.
