The Institution (includes any Contractor, public or private, excluding a Federal agency) shall comply with the requirements of 45 CFR Part 94, Responsible Prospective Contractors, which promotes objectivity in research by establishing standards to ensure that Investigators (defined as the project director or principal Investigator and any other person, regardless of title or position, who is responsible for the design, conduct, or reporting of research funded under BARDA contracts, or proposed for such funding, which may include, for example, collaborators or
43
consultants) will not be biased by any Investigator financial conflicts of interest. 45 CFR Part 94 is available at the following Web site: http://www.ecfr.gov/cgibin/textidx?c=ecfr&SID=0af84ca649a74846f102aaf664da1623&rgn=div 5&view=text&node=45:1.0.1.1.51&idno=45
As required by 45 CFR Part 94, the Institution shall, at a minimum:
Significant financial interests do not include the following:
44
children) no later than the date of submission of the Institution's proposal for BARDA funded research. Require that each Investigator who is participating in the BARDA funded research to submit an updated disclosure of significant financial interests at least annually, in accordance with the specific time period prescribed by the Institution during the period of the award as well as within thirty days of discovering or acquiring a new significant financial interest.
If the failure of an Institution to comply with an Institution's financial conflicts of interest policy or a financial conflict of interest management plan appears to have biased the design, conduct, or reporting of the BARDA funded research, the Institution must promptly notify the Contracting Officer of the corrective action taken or to be taken. The Contracting Officer will consider the situation and, as necessary, take appropriate action or refer the matter to the Institution for further action, which may include directions to the Institution on how to maintain appropriate objectivity in the BARDA funded research project.
The Contracting Officer and/or HHS may inquire at any time before, during, or after award into any Investigator disclosure of financial interests, and the Institution's review of, and response to, such disclosure, regardless of whether the disclosure resulted in the Institution's determination of a financial conflict of interests. The Contracting Officer may require submission of the records or review them on site. On the basis of this review of records or other information that may be available, the Contracting Officer may decide that a particular financial conflict of interest will bias the objectivity of the BARDA funded research to such an extent that further corrective action is needed or that the Institution has not managed the financial conflict of interest in accordance
45
with Part 94.6(b). The issuance of a Stop Work Order by the Contracting Officer may be necessary until the matter is resolved.
If the Contracting Officer determines that BARDA funded clinical research, whose purpose is to evaluate the safety or effectiveness of a drug, medical device, or treatment, has been designed, conducted, or reported by an Investigator with a financial conflict of interest that was not managed or reported by the Institution, the Institution shall require the Investigator involved to disclose the financial conflict of interest in each public presentation of the results of the research and to request an addendum to previously published presentations.
Anyone who becomes aware of the existence or apparent existence of fraud, waste and abuse in BARDA funded programs is encouraged to report such matters to the HHS Inspector General's Office in writing or on the Inspector General's Hotline. The toll free number is 1-800-HHS-TIPS (1-800-447-8477). All telephone calls will be handled confidentially. The e-mail address is Htips@os.dhhs.gov and the mailing address is:

Statement of Work BAA-18-SOL-00003, AOI #12
Arcturus Therapeutics (Arcturus) Self-Amplifying mRNA-Based Vaccine
For Rapid Influenza Response 8/24/2022
Background
The current COVID-19 pandemic has exemplified the need for highly efficacious vaccines as a medical countermeasure for pandemic outbreaks and the means to produce those vaccines quickly. There have been four influenza pandemics in little more than the past century and preparing for the next influenza pandemic is critical. mRNA-based vaccines have recently demonstrated safe and effective prevention of pandemic viral infection. mRNA-based vaccines can be rapidly developed so that a 60-day time frame from sequence identification to initiation of clinical trials can be achieved. In addition, US-based manufacturing capacity for mRNA products must be expanded and sustained to facilitate the production of hundreds of millions of doses required to vaccinate the public.
[***]
Statement of Work
Independently, and not as an agent of the Government, the Contractor shall furnish all necessary services, qualified professional, technical, and administrative personnel, material, equipment and facilities, not otherwise provided by the Government under the terms of this contract, as needed to perform the tasks set forth below.
The overall objective of this contract is to advance the development of pandFLU as a vaccine for the prevention of pandemic influenza infection. The scope of work for this contract includes pandFLU preclinical and clinical development activities in the following areas: non-clinical efficacy studies; clinical activities and associated drug product manufacturing activities; and all associated regulatory, quality assurance, management, and administrative activities. The R&D effort for pandFLU will progress in specific stages that cover the base performance segment (I) to be labeled Contract Line Item Number
1
(CLIN) 0001 as specified in this contract. Arcturus will complete the specific tasks required in discrete work segments. The scope of work is detailed in Phase I: Pilot Studies, which are outlined below:
The contractor shall provide the following as outlined below and in the contract deliverables list: Program Management (WBS 1.1)
2
Contractor’s Program Manager (PM) will use the Statement of Work, a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) with task descriptions, the Integrated Master Schedule (IMS), and project team meetings as the primary tools for scope, budget and schedule integration. The WBS serves as the fundamental
building block for the IMS and financial reporting. The IMS maps-out the start and end dates for the total program and further breaks down the timeline by individual line items, tasks and sub-tasks. This will include monitoring contract-mandated ceilings to ensure on-time and on-budget completion of all programmatic deliverables. The PM will track the program status against this IMS on a monthly
basis. The PM will determine if tasks are behind or ahead of schedule. Program timelines will be reported to BARDA in the monthly and quarterly reports. When program tasks or subtasks are behind schedule (or threaten to be behind schedule) the Program Team will meet to determine:
If program changes are required, the PI/PM will present the action plan and work with BARDA to implement any necessary changes to the project plan.
3
submit to the Project Officer and the Contracting Officer a Decision Gate Report that contains (i) sufficient detail, documentation and analysis to support successful completion of the stage according to the predetermined qualitative and quantitative criteria that were established for Go/No Go decision making; and (ii) a description of the next stage of product development to be initiated and a request for approval to proceed to the next stage of product development

Attachment 5 INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING
"FINANCIAL REPORT OF INDIVIDUAL PROJECT/CONTRACT" GENERAL INFORMATION
Purpose. This Quarterly Financial Report is designed to: (1) provide a management tool for use by the Government in monitoring the application of financial and personnel resources to the BARDA funded contracts; (2) provide contractors with financial and personnel management data which is usable in their management processes; (3) promptly indicate potential areas of contract underruns or overruns by making possible comparisons of actual performance and projections with prior estimates on individual elements of cost and personnel; and (4) obtain contractor's analyses of cause and effect of significant variations between actual and prior estimates of financial and personnel performance.
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
Scope. The specific cost and personnel elements to be reported shall be established by mutual agreement prior to award. The Government may require the contractor to provide detailed documentation to support any element(s) on one or more financial reports.
Number of Copies and Mailing Address. An electronic copy of the report(s) shall be sent to the contracting officer at the address shown in the contract, no later than 30 working days after the end of the period reported. However, the contract may provide for a copy to be sent directly to the Contracting Officer's Representative.
REPORTING STATISTICS
A modification which extends the period of performance of an existing contract will not require reporting on a separate quarterly report, except where it is determined by the contracting officer that separate reporting is necessary. Furthermore, when incrementally funded contracts are involved, each separate allotment is not considered a separate contract entity (only a funding action). Therefore, the statistics under incrementally funded contracts should be reported cumulatively from the inception of the contract through completion.
Definitions and Instructions for Completing the Quarterly Report. For the purpose of establishing expenditure categories in Column A, the following definitions and instructions will be utilized. Each contract will specify the categories to be reported.
PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions are keyed to the Columns on the Quarterly Report.
Column A--Expenditure Category. Enter the expenditure categories required by the contract.
Column B--Percentage of Effort/Hours Negotiated. Enter the percentage of effort or number of hours agreed to during contract negotiations for each labor category listed in Column A.
Column C--Percentage of Effort/Hours-Actual. Enter the cumulative percentage of effort or number of hours worked by each employee or group of employees listed in Column A.
Column D--Cumulative Incurred Cost at End of Prior Period. Enter the cumulative incurred costs up to the end of the prior reporting period. This column will be blank at the time of the submission of the initial report.
Column E--Incurred Cost-Current Period. Enter the costs which were incurred during the current period.
Column F--Cumulative Incurred Cost to Date. Enter the combined total of Columns D and E.
Column G--Estimated Cost to Complete. Make entries only when the contractor estimates that a particular expenditure category will vary from the amount negotiated. Realistic estimates are essential.
Column H--Estimated Costs at Completion. Complete only if an entry is made in Column G.
Column I--Negotiated Contract Amount. Enter in this column the costs agreed to during contract negotiations for all expenditure categories listed in Column A.
Column J--Variance (Over or Under). Complete only if an entry is made in Column H. When entries have been made in Column H, this column should show the difference between the estimated costs at completion (Column H) and negotiated costs (Column I). When a line item varies by plus or minus 10 percent, i.e., the percentage arrived at by dividing Column J by Column I, an explanation of the variance should be submitted. In the case of an overrun (net negative variance), this submission shall not be deemed as notice under the Limitation of Cost (Funds) Clause of the contract.
Modifications. List any modification in the amount negotiated for an item since the preceding report in the appropriate cost category. Expenditures Not Negotiated. List any expenditure for an item for which no amount was negotiated (e.g., at the discretion of the contractor in performance of its contract) in the appropriate cost category and complete all columns except for I. Column J will of course show a 100 percent variance and will be explained along with those identified under J above.
