Model grant agreement

Seventh Framework Programme. Model grant agreement

The European Commission adopted on 10 April 2007 the general model grant agreement to be used in research projects funded under the 7th Framework Programmes.

This model grant agreement is applicable to the indirect actions under the 'Cooperation' and 'Capacities' Specific Programmes of FP7. It consists of a core text and several annexes. There is also a list of special clauses to be introduced in the grant agreement where necessary.

The following links provide access to these documents. The original language of the grant agreement and its annexes is English. The translations into the other Community languages are provided to facilitate the understanding of the grant agreement and its annexes. They are not legally binding and are not officially sanctioned.

New annexes and some modifications to the annexes of the grant agreements have since been adopted (chronology of modifications). The latest updates of the grant agreement are due to; 1) the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty on 1 December 2009 and 2) to the adoption of a new Commission Decision modifying Annex II - general conditions Articles II.15,2. c and II.16.1 and in the list special clauses, special clause number 3, paragraph 3 and special clause 30. The modification to Articles II.15.2 c) and II.16.1 of Annex II of the model grant agreement shall apply to grant agreements in force without the need for formal amendments.

The English version of this update is available; the other language versions will follow.

Separate model grant agreements have been adopted for the 'People' (Marie Curie) and for the 'Ideas' (European Research Council) Specific Programmes.
