(a)In the event a Non-Conforming Batch results from wilful or intentional misconduct and/or negligence and/or failure to comply with Applicable Laws or the Quality Agreement, as agreed to by Avecia or as determined by the laboratory pursuant to Section 2.5(b), then Avecia, in consultation with PharmAthene, shall, at Avecia’s expense, rework or reprocess such Non-Conforming Batch or Produce a replacement Batch and Disposition such Batch as soon as reasonably practicable.  In such event, Avecia shall bear the costs of the laboratory or consultant engaged under Section 5.2(c).

(b)If a Non-Conforming Batch results other than from the circumstances of Section 5.3(a), then Avecia and PharmAthene shall meet to agree a course of action, which may include (but is not limited to) rework or reprocessing of such Non-Conforming Batch or Production of a replacement Batch at additional cost to PharmAthene.

6.Force Majeure

Failure of either party to perform under this Agreement (except the obligation to make payments) shall not subject such party to any liability to the other if such failure is caused by acts of God, lightning, acts of terrorism, earthquakes, fire, explosion, flood, drought, war, riot, sabotage, hijackings, embargoes, blockades, strikes, labour disputes (excluding labour disputes involving the work force or any part thereof of the party in question), compliance with any order or regulation of any government entity, or by any cause beyond the reasonable control of the affected party, whether or not foreseeable, provided that written notice of such event is promptly given to the other party.  For the avoidance of doubt, this provision shall not be applicable in the event of failure of Drug Product in clinical trials or failure of Drug Product to gain regulatory approval.

7.Changes Mandated by Regulatory Authority

7.1Drug Substance-Specific Changes:  If facility, equipment, process or system changes are required of Avecia as a result of a change in the regulatory requirements of a Regulatory Authority, and such regulatory changes apply primarily to the Production and supply of one or more of Drug Substances, then PharmAthene and Avecia will review such requirements and agree in writing to such regulatory changes, and PharmAthene shall bear I00% of the reasonable costs thereof.

7.2General Changes:  If such regulatory changes apply generally to one or more Drug Substances as well as to other products produced by Avecia for itself or for third parties, then Avecia shall bear the cost of those changes.

8.Confidentiality

8.1Confidentiality:  It is contemplated that in the course of the performance of this Agreement each party may, from time to time, disclose Confidential Information to the other.  Except as permitted by the Agreement, each party agrees to take all reasonable steps to prevent disclosure of Confidential Information of the other party to Third Party.  Except for the Avecia Technology, any and all information, data, materials including cell lines, and know how that relates to Drug Substance, Drug Product or the Production of Drug Substance and/or Drug Product including but not limited to PharmAthene Technology in the possession of or which comes into the possession of Avecia shall be deemed to be Confidential Information of PharmAthene that is disclosed to Avecia and shall not be subject to any of the exceptions (i), (ii) or (iv) of the definition of Confidential Information of Section 1.1.  No provision of this Agreement shall be construed so as to preclude disclosure of Confidential Information as may be reasonably necessary to secure from any governmental agency necessary approvals or licenses or to obtain patents with respect to the Drug Product or the Drug Substance.

8.2Third Party Disclosure:  Avecia shall be permitted to disclose Drug Product and Drug Substance information to Third Party developmental and analytical services providers in connection with performance of its obligations hereunder provided such providers shall be subject to confidentiality agreements.  Either party may disclose Confidential Information of the disclosing party to those Affiliates, agents and consultants who need to know such information to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and PharmAthene shall have the right to disclose Confidential Information of Avecia pursuant to the licenses granted to PharmAthene under this Agreement (collectively, ‘Permitted Recipients”); provided such Permitted Recipients are bound to maintain such Confidential Information in confidence.

8.3Disclosure to Courts or by Law or Other Rules:  Subject to the proviso below, nothing in this Section 8 shall preclude disclosure of any Confidential Information (a) required by any court entitled by law to disclosure of the same, or (b) which is required by law to be disclosed (including, without limitation, to a regulatory

Page 18 of 29 CONFIDENTIAL

authority, in connection with freedom of information legislation or regulations, or in relation to filings with any recognised stock exchange).  If a party is required to make a disclosure in accordance with this Section 8.3 it shall only make a disclosure to the extent to which it is obliged.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the party intending to make such disclosure shall in each case promptly notify the other party when any requirement to disclose has arisen, to enable the other party to seek an appropriate protective order and to make known to the intended recipient the proprietary nature of the Confidential Information and to make any applicable claim of confidentiality in respect thereof.  The party intending to make such disclosure shall co-operate in any action which the other party may in its reasonable discretion decide to take.

8.4Publicity.  The parties agree that the public announcement of the execution of this Agreement or a particular Project Plan shall only be by one or more press releases mutually agreed to by the parties.  A Party wishing to make a press release shall forward a copy of the proposed press release to the other Party prior to publishing said press release, whereupon the Party receiving such proposed Press Release shall approve, amend or reject such press release.  In the event the Parties do not mutually agree on the contents of the proposed press release such press release shall not be made, except that neither party shall unreasonably withhold approval of such press release.

8.5Duration of Confidentiality:  All obligations of confidentiality and non-use imposed upon the parties under this Agreement shall expire ten (10) years after the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that Confidential Information which constitutes the trade secrets of a party and which is identified as such shall be kept confidential indefinitely, subject to the limitations set out in this Section.

9.Intellectual Property

9.1Existing Intellectual Property:

(a)Except as the parties may otherwise expressly agree in writing, each party shall continue to own its existing patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and other Intellectual Property, without conferring any interests therein on the other party.  Neither party nor any Third Party shall acquire any right, title or interest in the Intellectual Property of the other party by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise, except to the extent expressly provided herein.

(b)Avecia acknowledges that Avecia currently has in its possession PharmAthene Technology useful for producing Drug Substance and acknowledges and agrees that as between Avecia and PharmAthene, PharmAthene has all rights in and to PharmAthene Technology.

9.2Disclaimer:  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed or interpreted, either expressly or by

Page 19 of 29 CONFIDENTIAL

implication, estoppel or otherwise, as:  (i) a grant, transfer or other conveyance by either party to the other of any right, title, license or other interest of any kind in any of its Inventions or other Intellectual Property, (ii) creating an obligation on the part of either party to make any such grant, transfer or other conveyance or (iii) requiring either party to participate with the other party in any cooperative development program or project of any kind or to continue with any such program or project.

9.3New Intellectual Property:  Except as prohibited by a Prime Contract, Intellectual Property arising during and as a direct result of a Programme (“New Intellectual Property”) shall be owned by PharmAthene.  Avecia shall ensure that it secures these rights for PharmAthene when placing sub-contracts under this Agreement.  PharmAthene hereby grants to Avecia a non-exclusive, paid-up, perpetual, non-terminable, worldwide license, with the right to grant sublicenses, and otherwise transfer such license to practice any and all New Intellectual Property for any purpose other than to make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell, and import Drug Substance or Drug Product, which license shall survive termination of this Agreement.  Avecia agrees to assign and hereby assigns to PharmAthene all of Avecia’s right, title and interest in and to the New Intellectual Property.

9.4Rights in Intellectual Property:  The party owning any Intellectual Property shall have the world wide right to control the drafting, filing, prosecution and maintenance of patents covering such Intellectual Property, including decisions about the countries in which to file patent applications.  Patent costs associated with the patent activities described in this Section 9.4 shall be borne by the sole owner.  Each party will cooperate with the other party in the filing and prosecution of patent applications.  Such cooperation will include, but not be limited to, furnishing supporting data and affidavits for the prosecution of patent applications and completing and signing forms needed for the prosecution, assignment and maintenance of patent applications.

9.5Confidentiality of Intellectual Property:  Intellectual Property shall be deemed to be the Confidential Information of the party owning or licensed to such Intellectual Property.  The protection of each party’s Confidential Information is described in Article 8.  It shall be the responsibility of the party preparing a patent application to obtain the written permission of the other party to use or disclose the other party’s Confidential Information in the patent application before the application is filed and for other disclosures made during the prosecution of the patent application.

9.8Avecia covenants and agrees that Avecia will use PharmAthene Technology only for Production of Drug Substance under this Agreement except as otherwise agreed between the parties.

9.9At the request of PharmAthene, Avecia shall provide PharmAthene with access to any and all PharmAthene Technology in the possession of Avecia; and provide, as

Page 20 of 29 CONFIDENTIAL

requested, samples of cell lines, vectors and polynucleotides in the possession of Avecia that is PharmAthene Technology.

10.Warranties, Liability and Indemnity

10.1Save as expressly set out in this Agreement, neither party makes any warranty, express or implied (including any warranty implied by law).

10.2(a)  Avecia warrants that it possesses and shall maintain in full force and effect at all times during the term of this Agreement all licences, permits and similar certificates required for the operation of the Facility and for the Production of Drug Substance and the storage of the materials and components for Production of Drug Substance.  Avecia shall promptly notify PharmAthene if Avecia receives notice that any such license, permit, or approval is or may be revoked or suspended.

(b) Avecia represents and warrants that (i) Avecia is licensed to the pPOPTM Technology and that such license is in full force and effect; (ii) Avecia has the right to grant the sublicenses to the pPOPTM Technology that have been granted to PharmAthene under this Agreement; (iii) the granting of such sublicenses does not require the consent of any Third Party and is not inconsistent with any rights or licenses that have been granted to any other person or entity; and (iv) such sublicenses have been validly granted.

10.3Intellectual Property Indemnity:  Each party (“the First Party”) shall be liable for and indemnify the other (“the Second Party”) against any liability, loss, claim, damage, proceedings and costs whatsoever arising out of any actual or suspected infringement of any Intellectual Property of a Third Party (an “Intellectual Property Infringement”) as a result of the Second Party’s use of the Intellectual Property of the First Party in performance of a Programme, provided that the Second Party:

(a)gives the First Party the sole conduct of the defence to any claim or action in respect of the Intellectual Property Infringement and does not at any time admit liability or otherwise settle or compromise or attempt to settle or compromise the said claim or action except upon the express instructions of the First Party; and

(b)acts in accordance with the reasonable instructions of the First Party and gives the First Party such assistance as it shall reasonably require in respect of the conduct of such defence.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.2, the First Party’s liability to indemnify the Second Party shall cease in respect of continuing use by the Second Party of the Intellectual Property of the First Party which is the subject of the Intellectual Property Infringement following either:

Page 21 of 29 CONFIDENTIAL

(i)notification (which shall be given promptly) by the First Party to the Second Party that the Intellectual Property of the First Party is actually or is believed by the First Party to be the subject of an Intellectual Property Infringement; or

(ii)the Second Party becoming aware that the Intellectual Property of the First Party is the subject of an Intellectual Property Infringement;

except where the First Party agrees or insists that the Second Party shall continue to use the Intellectual Property of the First Party which is the subject of the Intellectual Property Infringement.

10.4PharmAthene Indemnity:  PharmAthene shall fully indemnify and defend Avecia against, all Third Party claims, suits, actions, demands, liabilities, expenses and/or losses (including reasonable legal fees) brought against or suffered by Avecia or its Affiliates or its or their directors, officers, shareholders or employees, and against all costs incurred in connection therewith arising out of or resulting from the use of Drug Substance following acceptance of a Batch of Drug Substance by PharmAthene or arising out of or resulting from use of Drug Product and/or arising from the negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of PharmAthene in performing any activity contemplated by this Agreement except that this indemnity shall not apply to the extent that Avecia is obligated to indemnify PharmAthene under Section 103 or 10.5.

10.5Avecia Indemnity:  Avecia shall fully indemnify and defend PharmAthene against, all Third Party claims, suits, actions, demands, liabilities, expenses and/or losses (including reasonable legal fees) brought against or suffered by PharmAthene or its Affiliates or its or their directors, officers, shareholders or employees, and against all costs incurred, arising out of or resulting from Production of Drug Substance by or on behalf of Avecia and/or arising out of the negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of Avecia in performing any activity contemplated by this Agreement, except that this indemnity shall not apply to the extent that PharmAthene has an obligation to indemnify Avecia pursuant to Section 10.3 or 10.4 of this Agreement.

10.6Indemnification Procedure.

(a)Notice of Claim.  All indemnification claims in respect of a Party, its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each, an “Indemnitee”) will be made solely by the applicable Party (the “Indemnified Party”).  The Indemnified Party will give the indemnifying Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) prompt written notice (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”) with respect to which such Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under any of Sections 10.3, 10.4 or 10.5 (a “Loss”).  Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of such Loss, to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss are known at such time.  The Indemnified Party will furnish promptly to the Indemnifying

Page 22 of 29 CONFIDENTIAL

Party copies of all papers and official documents received in respect of any Losses.

(b)At its option, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice.

(c)Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party Claim any legal counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party.  In the event the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will immediately deliver to the Indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by any Indemnitee in connection with the Third Party Claim.  Should the Indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party or any other Indemnitee for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party or other Indemnitee in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Third Party Claim.

(d)Right to Participate in Defense.  Without limiting the preceding section 10.6, any Indemnitee will be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment will be at the Indemnitee’s own expense unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing, or (ii) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with the preceding section 10.6(c), in which case the Indemnified Party will control the defense.

(e)With respect to any Losses relating solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Third Party Claim and that will not result in the Indemnitee’s becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affect the business of the Indemnitee in any manner, and as to which the Indemnifying Party will have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder, the Indemnifying Party will have the sole right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the Indemnifying Party, in its sole discretion, will deem appropriate, and will transfer to the Indemnified Party all amounts which said Indemnified Party will be liable to pay prior to the entry of judgment.  With respect to all other Losses in connection with a Third Party Claim, where the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 10.6(b), the Indemnifying Party will have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent will be at the

Page 23 of 29 CONFIDENTIAL

Indemnified Party’s sole and absolute discretion).  The Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by an Indemnitee that is reached without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party.  Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, no Indemnitee will admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.

(f)Cooperation.  Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will, and will cause each other Indemnitee to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and will furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.  Such cooperation will include access during normal business hours afforded to the Indemnifying Party, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making Indemnitees and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith.

10.7Insurance.  Each party shall secure and maintain in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement policies of insurance having policy limits, deductibles and other terms appropriate to the conduct of that party’s business.  Evidence of such insurance in the form of a broker’s letter will be made available for examination upon request of the other party.

11.Technology Transfer and Licence from Avecia

11.1In the event that for any reason this Agreement is terminated or a Project Plan directed to Production of Drug Substance is terminated or PharmAthene intends to manufacture or have manufactured Drug Substance pursuant to a written notice from PharmAthene to Avecia, Avecia shall transfer to PharmAthene and/or its designee any and all PharmAthene Technology and shall provide to PharmAthene and/or its designee Avecia Technology, so as to permit PharmAthene and/or its designee(s) to Produce Drug Substance and Avecia shall provide sufficient technical assistance to enable PharmAthene and/or its designee(s) to Produce Drug Substance, all in accordance with a plan submitted to Avecia by PharmAthene.  To the extent transferable, Avecia shall also transfer any license(s), permit(s), or approval(s) obtained specifically for the Production of Drug Substance under this Agreement.

11.2Avecia hereby grants to PharmAthene a non-exclusive, royalty-free, paid-up, perpetual, non-terminable, worldwide license, with the right to grant sublicenses (except to the extent set out in Section 11.3 below in respect of the pPoP^TM

Page 24 of 29 CONFIDENTIAL

Technology), and otherwise transfer such license to practice any and all Avecia Technology to make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell, and import Drug Substance or Drug Product, which license shall survive termination of this Agreement.

11.3Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.2, PharmAthene shall not be entitled to grant sublicenses under the pPoP^TM Technology.  At PharmAthene’s request, Avecia shall grant a further non-exclusive, royalty-free, paid-up, perpetual, non-terminable, worldwide license to a third party nominated by PharmAthene to practice the pPoP^TM Technology to make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell, and import Drug Substance or Drug Product on behalf of PharmAthene, which license shall survive termination of this Agreement.  PharmAthene may choose not to take a license under the pPoP^TM Technology under Section 11.2 or to surrender such license and may instead request Avecia to grant a second license to a third party nominated by PharmAthene on the same terms as the first license granted under this Section 113.  PharmAthene may request Avecia to terminate a license granted to a third party under this Section 11.2 and to grant a replacement license to a further third party such that, at any time, no more than two licences under the pPoP^TM Technology are granted under this Agreement at any one time.

11.4In consideration for the technical assistance provided by Avecia under Section 11.1 above, PharmAthene shall make payment to Avecia in accordance with the rates for personnel based on the relevant Project Plan.

12.Notices

18.Waiver

A failure by either party hereto to exercise or enforce any rights conferred upon it by this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any such rights or operate so as to bar the exercise or enforcement thereof at any subsequent time or times.

[Pages omitted: 8]

Schedule 1B

ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE TO WORK PLANS
UNDER NIH PRIME CONTRACTS

PART I - NIH CONTRACT FLOWDOWN PROVISIONS

A.Incorporation of FAR/HHSAR Clauses and Additional Prime Contract Clauses

1.The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Health and Human Services Acquisition Regulation (HHSAR) clauses listed in Section D are incorporated into the Contract by reference, with the same force and effect as if they were given in full text, and are applicable, subject to the notes contained in Section C, during the performance of this Contract If the date or substance of any of the clauses listed below is different than the date or substance of the clause actually incorporated in the Prime Contract referenced by number herein, the date or substance of the clause incorporated by said Prime Contract shall apply instead.

2.The additional clauses set out in full in Section E are incorporated into this Contract and are applicable during the performance of this Contract.

B.Additional Definitions

As used in the clauses listed in Section D and set out in full in Section E below and otherwise in this Schedule:

1.“Contractor” means Avecia, acting as the immediate (first-tier) subcontractor to PharmAthene.

2.“Contract” means the Master Services Agreement and the applicable Project Plan together with the FAR and HHSAR clauses and additional clauses incorporated by virtue of this Schedule.

3.“Master Services Agreement” means the agreement entered into between PharmAthene and Avecia and dated April 2^nd 2008 under which Avecia agrees to carry out Programmes.

4.“Subcontract” means any contract placed by the Contractor or lower-tier subcontractors under the Contract.

C.Notes for Interpretation of FAR and HHSAR clauses

In respect of each clause:

1.Substitute “PharmAthene” for ‘Government” or “United States” as applicable throughout the clause.

2.Substitute “PharmAthene Contracts Manager” for “Contracting Officer,” “Administrative Contracting Officer,” and “ACO” throughout the clause.

3.Insert “and PharmAthene” after “Government” or “Contracting Officer,” as appropriate, throughout the clause.

4.Insert “or PharmAthene” after “Government” throughout the clause.

5.Communication or notification required under the clause from or to the Contractor, and to or from the Contracting Officer shall be through PharmAthene.

6.“Contracting Officer” shall mean the U.S. Government Contracting Officer for PharmAthene’s Prime Contract under which this Contract is entered.

D.FAR and HHSAR clauses

The full text of a clause may be accessed electronically at the following addresses:
http://www.a m et.gov/far/
http://farsite.hill.af.millreg html/regs/other/hhsar/352.htm#P271_51559

Although this list is extensive, several of the clauses are inapplicable to Avecia at the current time (e.g. US-centric provisions related to Veteran owned businesses, Equal Opportunity, Drug Free Workplace, etc) because they are inoperative to the extent that work is carried on outside the US.  They are however all included for the sake of completeness and to address a situation in which Avecia was called upon to subcontract to a US subcontractor, in which case the clauses may be required to flow down to this second tier subcontractor.

E.Additional Clauses

1.Possession Use and Transfer of Select Biological Agents or Toxins

Work involving select biological agents or toxins shall not be conducted under this Contract until the Contractor and any affected subcontractor(s) are granted a certificate of registration or are authorized to work with the applicable agents.

For prime or subcontract awards to domestic institutions who possess, use, and/or transfer Select Agents under this Contract, the institution must complete registration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) or the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Services (APHIS), U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), as applicable, before using NIH funds for research involving Select Agents.  No NIH funds can be used for research involving Select Agents if the final registration certificate is denied.

For prime or subcontract awards to foreign institutions who possess, use, and/or transfer Select Agents under this Contract, the institution must provide information satisfactory to the NIH that a process equivalent to that described in 42 CFR 73 (http://www.cdc.gov/od/sap/docs/42cfr73.pdf ) for U.S. institutions is in place and will be administered on behalf of all Select Agent work sponsored by these funds before using these funds for any work directly involving the Select Agents.  The Contractor must provide information addressing the following key elements appropriate for the foreign institution:  safety, security, training, procedures for ensuring that only approved/appropriate individuals have access to the Select Agents, and any applicable laws, regulations and policies equivalent to 42 CFR 73.  An NIAID-chaired committee of U.S. federal employees (including representatives of NIH grants/contracts and scientific program management, CDC , Department of Justice and other federal intelligence agencies, and Department of State) will assess the policies and procedures for comparability to the U.S. requirements described in 42 CFR Part 73.  When requested by the contracting officer, the Contractor should provide key information delineating any laws, regulations, policies, and procedures applicable to the foreign institution for the safe and secure possession, use, and transfer of Select Agents.  This includes concise summaries of safety, security, and training plans, and applicable laws, regulations, and policies.  For the purpose of security risk assessments, the Contractor must provide the names of all individuals at the foreign institution who will have access to the Select Agents and procedures for ensuring that only approved and appropriate individuals have access to Select Agents under the Contract.

Listings of HHS select agents and toxins, biologic agents and toxins, and overlap agents or toxins as well as information about the registration process, can be obtained on the Select Agent Program Web site at http://www.cdc.gov/od/sap/

2.Prohibition on Contractor Involvement with Terrorist Activities

The Contractor acknowledges that U.S. Executive Orders and Laws, including but not limited to E.O. 13224 and P.L. 107-56, prohibit transactions with, and the provision of resources and support to, individuals and organizations associated with terrorism.

It is the legal responsibility of the Contractor to ensure compliance with these Executive Orders and Laws.  This clause must be included in all subcontracts issued under this Contract.

3.Reimbursement of Costs for Independent Research and Development

The primary purpose of the Public Health Service (PHS) is to support and advance independent research within the scientific community.  PHS has established effective, time tested and well recognized procedures for stimulating and supporting this Independent research by selecting from multitudes of applications those research projects most worthy of support within the constraints of its appropriations.  The reimbursement through the indirect cost mechanism of independent research and development costs not incidental to product improvement would circumvent this competitive process.

To ensure that all research and development projects receive similar and equal consideration, all organizations may compete for direct funding of independent research and development projects they consider worthy of support by submitting those projects to the appropriate Public Health Service grant office for review.  Since these projects may be submitted for direct funding, the Contractor agrees that no costs for any independent research and development project, including all applicable indirect costs, will be claimed under this contract.

4.Privacy Act

This procurement requires the Contractor to do one or more of the following:  design, develop, or operate a system of records on individuals to accomplish an agency function in accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, Public Law 93-579, December 31, 1974 (5 USC 552a) and applicable agency regulations.  Violation of the Act may involve the imposition of criminal penalties.

The Privacy Act System of Records applicable to this project is Number 09-25-0200.  This document may be accessed on the Internet at the following URL:  http://oma.od.nih.gov/ms/privacy/pa-files/0200.htm.

5.Salary Rate Limitation Legislation Provisions

a.Pursuant to Public Law(s) the cited in paragraph b, below, no NIH Fiscal Year funds may be used to pay the direct salary of an individual through this contract at a rate in excess of applicable amount shown for the fiscal year covered.  Direct salary is exclusive of fringe benefits, overhead, and general and administrative expenses (also referred to as Indirect cost” or “facilities and administrative (F&A) costs”).  Direct salary has the same meaning as the term “institutional base salary.” An individual’s direct salary (or institutional base salary) is the annual compensation that the contractor pays for an individual’s appointment whether that individual’s time is spent on research, teaching, patient care or other activities.  Direct salary (or institutional base salary) excludes any income that an individual may be permitted to earn outside of duties to the contractor.  The per year salary rate limit also applies to individuals proposed under subcontracts.  It does not apply to fees paid to consultants If this is a multiple year contract, it may be subject to unilateral modifications by the Government if an individual’s salary rate exceeds any salary rate ceiling established in future HHS appropriation acts.

b.	Public Law No.	Fiscal Year	Dollar Amount of
	P.L. 110-161, Division G. Title II, General Provisions, Section 203	2008	Salary Limitation* Executive Level I
