The Contractor will report to Intravacc on the progress of the work as often as and in a manner as the Contract prescribes, or as Intravacc deems fit.

The Contract may provide for the formation of a supervisory or steering committee whose duties, powers and composition may be laid down in the Contract.

14.1
In so far as the Contractor processes personal data on behalf of Intravacc for the performance of the Contract, the Contractor will be regarded as a processor within the meaning of the Personal Data Protection Act (WBP) and the Contract as a contract within the meaning of the section 14, subsection 2 of the Personal Data Protection Act. The Contractor may not at any time use the personal data provided to it, or have them used, in whole or in part, in any way other than for the performance of the Contract, except where statutory obligations provide otherwise.
14.2
In the case referred to in article 14.1, the Contractor will take appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect the personal data from loss or any form of unlawful processing. Such measures will guarantee, with due regard for the state of the technology and the cost of its implementation, an appropriate level of security given the risks arising from the processing and the nature of the data to be protected. The measures will be designed in part to prevent unnecessary collection and further processing of personal data. The Contractor will lay the measures down in writing.

15.3
Intravacc may carry out security checks on members of the Contractor’s Staff, in accordance with the rules usually applied by Intravacc. The Contractor must lend its full cooperation to such checks. Intravacc may, on the basis of the results of a security check, refuse to allow the person in question to work on the Contract, without giving any reasons.
15.4
The Contractor’s Staff involved in the performance of the activities on Contracting Authority’s premises should observe all the access and safety procedures. If the respective member of Staff has not fulfilled his obligations resulting from this, for instance the one with regard to the vaccination obligation and the possession of a valid proof of identity, the respective member of Staff will be refused access. The costs and consequences resulting from this will be at the expense and risk of the Contractor. The vaccination obligation relates in principle to DTaP-IPV (diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, poliomyelitis), MMR (mumps, measles, rubella) and an annual check-up for TBC. With regard to activities in specific building sections the vaccination programme/schedule may be adjusted. If required by the applicable vaccination policy or rules, vaccination can take place on Intravacc’s premises in which case vaccines will be provided by Intravacc at no cost. Vaccination elsewhere will be on the account of Contractor. If the Contractor does not observe the vaccination policy and/or programme/schedule, Contractor’s Staff may be refused access and Intravacc will be compensated by the Contractor for the losses resulting from this. In addition, the Contractor will indemnify Intravacc for losses resulting from Contractor’s (including Staff) lack of compliance with the vaccination policy and/or programme/schedule. IV FINANCIAL PROVISIONS
16.1
Intravacc will pay for the costs actually incurred and the hours actually worked by the Contractor, unless a fixed fee has been agreed in the Contract.
16.2
Should any additional requirements stipulated by Intravacc, any new information that is brought to the notice of Intravacc or any changes to the statutory regulations applicable to the work in question lead to the work performed by the Contractor under the Contract becoming demonstrably more demanding or extensive, this additional work constitutes an upward contract variation for which the Contractor may charge a fee. Additional work or new information which the Contractor could have foreseen when the Contract was signed is not regarded as constituting an upward contract variation. If a Party regards a particular request as constituting an upward contract variation, it will notify the other Party thereof as quickly as possible.
16.3
The Contractor will not start any additional work that constitutes an upward contract variation until it has received a written order to this effect from Intravacc. In order to obtain such an order, the Contractor will issue a written quotation specifying the amount of additional work that is to be performed, its duration and cost. Any additional work performed by the Contractor will be subject to the provisions of the Contract, including those on fees and discounts, where relevant, in so far as these have not been amended by Intravacc’s written order. When submitting a quotation, the Contractor may not impose terms and conditions that are either more detailed or more stringent than the original Terms and Conditions, unless it does so with Intravacc’s consent.
16.4
The Contractor must accept and carry out an order for additional work representing up to a maximum of 15% of the original Contract value. Such an order for additional work is subject to the provisions of the Contract.
16.5
Should any new information that is brought to the notice of Intravacc or any changes to the statutory regulations applicable to the work in question lead to the work performed by the Contractor under the Contract becoming demonstrably less demanding or extensive, this constitutes a downward contract variation for which Intravacc is entitled to a discount. If a Party regards a particular change as constituting a downward contract variation, it will notify the other Party thereof in writing as quickly as possible. If a fixed fee has been agreed, the Parties will consult to agree on the value of the discount, which will be deducted from the agreed fee.
17.1
The Contractor will send the invoice electronically so that Intravacc can receive and process it electronically, in accordance with the specifications issued by Intravacc.
17.2
The Contractor will send invoices to Intravacc. Each invoice will state the date and number of the Contract and the relevant VAT charge. If applicable under article 4, the Contractor will enclose a copy of the notice of acceptance with the invoice, together with any other information requested by Intravacc.
17.3
If it has been agreed that the invoice will be based on the actual amount of time spent as calculated after the completion of the Contract, the Contractor will compile an itemized invoice in a format which Intravacc is free to specify. The Contractor’s invoice will state the number of days and hours actually and necessarily spent on the Contract, as well as the relevant dates, and will also contain a brief description of the work performed, and of any travel and accommodation expenses if these are not included in the daily or hourly rates.
17.4
The Contractor will present separate invoices for any upward contract variations after the additional work in question has been completed and accepted by Intravacc. The invoices will explicitly state the nature and amount of the additional work performed, which will be itemized on the basis of authentic documents.
18.1
Intravacc will pay the Contractor the amount owing under the Contract no later than 30 days of receiving the relevant invoice, provided it satisfies the provisions of the Contract.
18.2
Where payment is made by Intravacc within 14 days of receipt of the invoice, a deduction of 4% from the invoice amount shall be applied.
18.3
If Intravacc fails without good reason to pay an invoice within the time limit stipulated in article 18.1 and Contractor has provided notice of such overdue payment to Intravacc which Intravacc has failed to correct within 10 Working Days of the subject notice, Contractor is entitled to statutory interest as referred to in article 6:119b, paragraph 1 of the Dutch Civil Code.
18.4
Intravacc may instruct an accountant designated by Intravacc, as referred to in article 2:393, paragraph 1 of the Dutch Civil Code, to audit the invoices submitted by the Contractor to determine their accuracy. The Contractor will allow the accountant to inspect its books and documents, and will supply him with any information he requests. This audit is confidential and does not involve any more than is necessary to check the invoices. The accountant will report as quickly as possible to both Parties. Intravacc will pay the cost of the accountant’s audit, unless the latter’s work reveals that the invoices in question are not accurate or complete, in which case the Contractor will be liable for the cost of the inspection.
18.5
Intravacc may defer payment of an invoice or a portion thereof, about which the Parties have failed to reach agreement, for the duration of the accountant’s audit. Intravacc will exercise this right only if it has reasonable doubts about the accuracy of the invoice in question.
18.6
The Contractor is not entitled to suspend or terminate its work on account of Intravacc’s failure to pay an invoice within the stipulated time limit, or if Intravacc does not pay an invoice because it suspects that the invoice is inaccurate or because the Services have not been properly performed.
19.1
If Intravacc, for the purpose of performing the Contract, makes one or more payments for Services that have not yet been rendered, it may require the Contractor to issue Intravacc with an on-demand bank guarantee prior to making the payment(s) in question, to the value of the payment(s) in question. Intravacc will not be required to pay any of the cost of the guarantee.
19.2
If Intravacc does not accept certain Services within the stipulated time limit as a result of a failure that is attributable to the Contractor, the Contractor is liable to pay statutory interest on the advance for as long as the failure persists.
19.3
The on-demand bank guarantee will be issued by a bank approved by Intravacc, in accordance with the model enclosed with these Terms and Conditions (see Annex 1).
20.1
If there is any possibility of the work being delayed, the Contractor will immediately notify Intravacc, explaining the reasons for and the consequences of the potential delay. The Contractor will also propose measures to avoid further delay. 20.2 Within 14 days of receiving the notification referred to in the preceding paragraph, Intravacc will notify the Contractor whether or not it agrees with the proposed measures and the consequences described by the Contractor. Agreement does not imply any acceptance by Intravacc of the cause of the potential delay, and does not affect any other rights vested in Intravacc under the Contract.
21.1
If one of the Parties fails to discharge its obligations under the Contract, the other Party may give notice of default. The defaulting Party is deemed to be immediately in default, however, if it is clear that there is no prospect whatsoever of it discharging the obligations in question within the stipulated time limit for reasons other than force majeure. The notice of default will be given in writing, and the defaulting Party will be given a reasonable period of time in which to discharge its obligations. This is a strict deadline. The defaulting Party is in default if it fails to discharge its obligations by the deadline set.
21.2
The notice of default referred to in the preceding paragraph is not required if the time limit by which the agreed Services should have been performed has been extended prior to its expiry. If the defaulting Party fails to discharge its obligations as described in the preceding paragraph by the end of the extended time limit, the defaulting Party is held to be immediately in default as from that date.
21.3
If Contractor imputably fails to discharge its obligations, it is liable to Intravacc for any loss incurred by Intravacc, on the understanding that the liability is limited per event to an amount of: - €150,000 for contracts whose total value is less than or equal to €50,000; - €300,000 for contracts whose total value is greater than €50,000 but less than or equal to €100,000; - €500,000 for contracts whose total value is greater than €100,000 but less than or equal to €150,000; - €1,500,000 for contracts whose total value is greater than €150,000 but less than or equal to €500,000; - €3,000,000 for contracts whose total value is greater than €500,000. Related events will be treated as a single event. The limitation of liability referred to above will not apply: a. in the event of third-party claims for compensation in respect of death or personal injury; b. in the event of criminal intent or gross negligence on the part of the Contractor or the Contractor’s Staff; c. in the event of a breach of intellectual property rights as referred to in article 24.
21.4
If, in performing the Services, the Contractor makes use of property belonging to Intravacc as referred to in article 7, the Contractor is liable for any damage caused to such property. The liability amounts set out in article 21.3 apply mutatis mutandis.
21.5
If damage of whatever nature is caused to the Contractor and/or third parties as a result of the Contractor using Intravacc’s property for the purpose of performing the Services, the Contractor will be wholly liable for this damage. The liability amounts set out in article 21.3 apply mutatis mutandis.
21.6
The Contractor is liable for all obligations in respect of the Contractor’s Staff, including those arising under tax and social insurance law. The Contractor indemnifies Intravacc against any liability in this connection.
21.7
Intravacc’s liability is in any event limited to events of gross negligence or willful misconduct.
22.1
Without prejudice to the other provisions of the Contract, either Party may dissolve the Contract, in full or in part out of court by registered mail, if the other Party is in default or is permanently or temporarily unable to fulfil its obligations.
22.2
If one of the Parties is unable to discharge its obligations under the Contract as a result of force majeure, the other Party is entitled to dissolve the Contract, subject to a reasonable period, in full or in part out of court by registered mail, without its action creating any entitlement to compensation, but no earlier than 15 Working Days as from the date on which the circumstance that produced the force majeure arose.
22.3
The term ‘force majeure’ is in any event understood not to include: staff shortages, strikes, staff illness, shortages of raw materials, transport problems, late delivery or the unsuitability of items required for the performance of the work, liquidity or solvency problems on the part of the Contractor or failures on the part of third parties engaged by the Contractor.
22.4
Intravacc may dissolve the Contract forthwith out of court by registered mail, without being required to send any demand or notice of default, if the Contractor applies for or is granted a provisional or definitive suspension of payments, files for bankruptcy, is declared bankrupt, if its business is wound up, if it ceases trading, if a substantial proportion of its assets are seized, if it undergoes a merger or a division or is dissolved, or if it is deemed on any other grounds to be no longer capable of discharging its obligations under the Contract.
22.5
If the Contract is dissolved, the Contractor will repay any undue amounts already paid by Intravacc, plus the statutory interest on those amounts from the date on which they were paid. If the Contract is partially dissolved, the Contractor only has to repay payments relating to the part of the contract that has been dissolved.
22.6
In addition, Intravacc may terminate the Contract at any time by giving notice of termination by registered mail. In such an event, the account between Intravacc and the Contractor will be settled on the basis of the Services provided and costs reasonably incurred by the Contractor in carrying out the assignment in question and of any commitments reasonably entered into for the future for the purposes of the present Contract. Intravacc is not obliged to compensate the Contractor in any way for the consequences of the termination of the Contract.
The fact that one of the Parties omits to demand the performance of any provision of the Contract within a time limit set by the Contract does not affect its right to demand performance at a later date, unless the Party in question has expressly agreed to the non-performance in writing.
24.1
Intravacc is the owner of all results of the Services and all intellectual property rights (such as but not limited to patent rights, copyrights and knowhow) that may be exercised in relation to the results of the Services performed by the Contractor, irrespective of where and when they may be exercised. In pursuance of the Contract, the Contractor assigns such intellectual property rights to Intravacc as soon as they arise. Intravacc hereby accepts the assignment of these rights.
24.2
Intravacc is the owner of all database rights that may be exercised in relation to the results of the Services performed by the Contractor, irrespective of where and when they may be exercised. In pursuance of the Contract, the Contractor assigns such intellectual property rights to Intravacc as soon as they arise. Intravacc hereby accepts the assignment of these rights.
24.3
In so far as the results of the Services performed are achieved partly or wholly using existing intellectual property rights that do not accrue to Intravacc, the Contractor grants Intravacc a non-exclusive and irrevocable right of use for an indefinite period. In such an event, the Contractor guarantees that it is entitled to grant the aforesaid right of use.
24.4
In so far as a separate instrument needs to be executed for the assignment of the rights referred to in articles 24.1 and 24.2, the Contractor hereby irrevocably authorizes Intravacc to draft such an instrument and sign it on the Contractor’s behalf, without prejudice to the Contractor’s obligation to cooperate with the assignment of these rights as soon as Intravacc requests it to do so, without attaching any conditions to its cooperation.
24.5
If there is a difference of opinion between the Parties on the intellectual property rights referred to in articles 24.1 and 24.2, in relation to the results of the Services performed, it will be assumed, in the absence of proof to the contrary, that the rights rest with Intravacc. In all cases, Intravacc may continue to use the results for the purposes specified in the Contract.
24.6
The Contractor hereby renounces vis-à-vis Intravacc any moral rights vested in it, i.e. the Contractor, as referred to in the Copyright Act, in so far as the relevant regulations allow it to do so. Acting both in its own capacity and on behalf of the members of its Staff working on the Contract, and as authorized to this end, the Contractor renounces vis-à-vis Intravacc any moral rights vested in these members of its Staff, in so far as the relevant regulations allow it to do so.
24.7
The Contractor indemnifies Intravacc against all claims brought by third parties in respect of any breach of their intellectual property rights, including equivalent claims relating to knowledge, unlawful competition and suchlike. The Contractor is obliged to take any action that may help to prevent stagnation and to limit the additional costs and/or losses incurred as a result of such breaches, and to do so at its own expense.
24.8
Without prejudice to the above provisions, Intravacc may, if a third party holds the Contractor liable for a breach of its intellectual property rights, dissolve the Contract in writing, in full or in part, out of court, without prejudice to its other rights vis-à-vis the Contractor, such to include but not limited to any right to compensation. Intravacc will not exercise its right to dissolve the Contract until it has first consulted the Contractor.
24.9
Intellectual property rights arising from the Services performed other than those referred to in articles 24.1 and 24.2 may never be exercised against Intravacc, and the Contractor assigns to the Contractor a non-excusive and irrevocable right to use such rights, free of charge, for an indefinite period for the purposes of the Contract’s objectives.
25.1
Contractor may not transfer its rights and obligations under the Contract to third parties without the consent of Intravacc. Intravacc will not withhold its consent without good reason, but may attach conditions. Intravacc may assign this Agreement, without any consent, to an entity that acquires all or substantially all of its business or assets to which this Agreement pertains, whether by merger, reorganization, acquisition, sale, or otherwise.

26.2
At Intravacc’s request, the Contractor will immediately present either the original or certified copies of the policies and proof of the payment of premium for the insurances referred to in paragraph 1 or a statement from the insurer to the effect that these policies exist and the premium has been paid. The Contractor will not terminate either the insurance contracts or the terms applying to them without Intravacc’s prior written consent. Nor will the Contractor change the insured sum to Intravacc’s disadvantage without Intravacc’s prior written consent. The insurance premiums owed by the Contractor are deemed to be included in the agreed prices and fees.
27.1
Neither Party may employ members of the other Party’s Staff, or negotiate with members of the other Party’s Staff on the possibility of the latter entering into its employment, without the other Party’s consent both during the term of the Contract and for a period of one year following its termination. The other Party will not withhold its consent without good reason.
27.2
The Parties will not offer to each other or to third parties, or ask for, accept or obtain a promise of, from each other or third parties, whether for themselves or for any other party, any gift, reward, compensation or benefit of any form whatsoever if this could be construed as constituting an illicit practice. Such a practice may constitute grounds for dissolving the Contract either in full or in part.
27.3
Should it transpire that a member of the Contracting Authority’s Staff is also in the Contractor’s employment, regardless of whether or not such employment is paid, or was in the Contractor’s employment at the time when negotiations took place on the formation of the Contract, and that the Contracting Authority was not informed of this prior to the signing of the Contract, the Contracting Authority may dissolve the Contract with immediate effect, without being required to give any notice of default or to pay any compensation.
27.4
The Contractor will not deploy staff on the Contract who were employed by the Contracting Authority during a period of two years prior to the start of the work other than with the Contracting Authority’s consent.
28.1
If one or more provisions of the Terms and Conditions or the Contract are found to be invalid or are nullified by a court of law, the remaining provisions will retain their legal force. The Parties will consult on the former provisions in order to make an alternative arrangement.
