However, if the parties cannot agree on a settlement, then the CO is entitled to make a unilateral determination as to what would constitute fair compensation, including fee using the guidance in the termination clause.

The Termination clause says payment of fee is based on percentage of completion if the parties can't agree on a settlement. I don't see anything wrong with proposing additional fee and I don't think the contracting officer would be prohibited from including it in the settlement. However, I think you are asking about entitlement to the additional fee. If that's the case, I'm not seeing that entitlement. Good approach. Report
