(1) Jedrski material, material, oprema in tehnologija iz tega sporazuma ne smejo biti uporabljeni za izdelovanje ali drugačno pridobivanje jedrskega orožja ali drugih jedrskih eksplozivnih naprav.
(2) Obveznosti iz 1. odstavka tega člena se, ko gre za jedrski material, preverja v skladu s sporazumom za izvajanje nadzora, ki ga je vsaka od obeh pogodbenih strank sklenila z MAAE v zvezi z NPT. Vendar pa, če MAAE kadarkoli in iz kakršnihkoli vzrokov na ozemlju pogodbene stranke ne izvaja takšnega nadzora, je ta pogodbena stranka dolžna nemudoma skleniti sporazum z drugo pogodbeno stranko o vzpostavitvi MAAE nadzora oziroma sistema izvajanja nadzora, ki je v skaldu z načeli in postopki sistema za izvajanje nadzora, kot je določen v dokumentu MAAE INFCIRC/66 Rev 2 kot tudi v kasnejših dopolnilih, ki so jih pogodbeni stranki sprejeli, in ki določa izvajanje nadzora, v zvezi z vsemi postavkami, ki so predmet tega sporazuma.

(1) Jedrski material je predmet tega sporazuma, dokler:
(a) ni ugotovljeno, da ni več uporaben ali da ga ni več mogoče predelati v obliko, ki bi bila uporabna za katerokoli jedrsko dejavnost, ustrezno glede na izvajanje nadzora iz VII. člena tega sporazuma. Obe pogodbeni stranki sta dolžni sprejeti odločitev MAAE, ki je bila sprejeta v skladu z določili o prenehanju izvajanja nadzora iz ustreznega sporazuma za izvajanje nadzora, katerega pogodbena stranka je MAAE;
(b) ni prenešen na tretjo stran v skladu z določili V. člena tega sporazuma;
(c) se pogodbeni stranki ne dogovorita drugače.
(2) Material in oprema sta predmet tega sporazuma, dokler:
(a) nista prenešena na tretjo osebo v skladu z določili V. člena tega sporazuma,
(b) se pogodbeni stranki ne dogovorita drugače.
(3) Tehnologija je predmet tega sporazuma, dokler se pogodbeni stranki ne dogovorita drugače.

(1) Vsaka pogodbena stranka je v skladu z ocenjeno nevarnostjo, ki se pojavi od časa do časa, dolžna sprejeti vse potrebne ukrepe, da bi zagotovila fizično zaščito jedrskega materiala iz tega sporazuma ter izvajati najmanj tisto stopnjo fizične zaščite, ki je določena v dodatku E tega sporazuma.
(2) Na zahtevo katerekoli od pogodbenih strank sta se pogodbeni stranki dolžni posvetovati glede zadev, ki so povezane s fizično zaščito jedrskega materiala, materiala, opreme in tehnologije iz tega sporazuma, vključno s tistimi, ki se nanašajo na fizično zaščito med mednarodnim prevozom.

(1) Pogodbeni stranki sta se dolžni posvetovati kadarkoli, ko to zahteva ena od pogodbenih strank, da bi zagotovili učinkovito izpolnjevanje obveznosti iz tega sporazuma. Na zahtevo pogodbenih strank lahko na takšnem posvetovanju sodeluje tudi MAAE.
(2) Pristojni vladni organi so dolžni poskrbeti za upravne dogovore, ki bodo omogočili učinkovito izvajanje tega sporazuma in se posvetovati enkrat letno oziroma kadarkoli to zahteva pristojni vladni organ ene ali druge pogodbene stranke. Takšno posvetovanje lahko poteka dopisno.
(3) Vsaka pogodbena stranka je dolžna na zahtevo druge pogodbene stranke le-to obvestiti o zaključkih zadnjega poročila MAAE glede preverjanja, ki ga je MAAE opravila na njenem ozemlju v zvezi z jedrskim materialom iz tega sporazuma.

Spori v zvezi z razlago in izvajanjem tega sporazuma, ki jih ni mogoče rešiti s pogajanji ali na drug način, o katerem se pogodbeni stranki dogovorita, se na zahtevo katerekoli pogodbene stranke predajo arbitražnemu razsodišču, ki ga sestavljajo trije razsodniki. Vsaka pogodbena stranka določi enega razsodnika, ta dva pa skupaj določita tretjega razsodnika, ki ni državljan pogodbenih strank in opravlja funkcijo predsednika. Če v tridesetih (30) dneh po zahtevi za arbitražo ena od pogodbenih strank ne imenuje razsodnika, lahko druga sprta pogodbena stranka zaprosi predsednika Mednarodnega sodišča, da imenuje razsodnika za pogodbeno stranko, ki ga sama ni določila. Če v tridesetih (30) dneh po določitvi ali imenovanju razsodnikov za obe stranki ni imenovan tretji razsodnik, lahko katerakoli pogodbena stranka zaprosi predsednika Mednarodnega sodišča, da imenuje tretjega razsodnika. Za sklepčnost je potrebna večina članov arbitražnega razsodišča, vse odločitve pa morajo biti sprejete z večino glasov vseh članov arbitražnega razsodišča. Arbitražni postopek določi razsodišče. Arbitražna odločitev je obvezujoča za obe pogodbeni stranki in obe sta jo dolžni izvajati. Nagrajevanje razsodnikov je določeno na enaki osnovi kot nagrajevanje ad hoc sodnikov Mednarodnega sodišča.

(1) Da bi ta sporazum začel veljati, bosta pogodbeni stranki z izmenjavo not druga drugo obvestili, da so bile njune ustavne in pravne zahteve izpolnjene. Ta sporazum prične veljati z dnevom izmenjave not oziroma v primeru, da izmenjava not ne bo opravljena na isti dan, z datumom zadnje note.
(2) S pisnim soglasjem obeh pogodbenih strank je mogoče ta sporazum kadarkoli dopolniti. Kakršnakoli dopolnila k temu sporazumu pričnejo veljati v skladu z določili iz 1. odstavka tega člena.
(3) Ta sporazum velja za obdobje tridesetih (30) let. Če nobena od pogodbenih strank vsaj šest (6) mesecev pred iztekom tega obdobja ne obvesti druge pogodbene stranke o nameri, da prekine sporazum, ostane ta sporazum v veljavi za nadaljnja obdobja desetih (10) let, dokler ena pogodbena stranka vsaj šest (6) mesecev pred iztekom kateregakoli od teh nadaljnjih obdobij ne obvesti druge pogodbene stranke o nameri, da ga prekine.
(4) Ne glede na prekinitev tega sporazuma ostanejo obveznosti, ki so določene v 5. odstavku III. člena in v členih IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X in XI tega sporazuma v veljavi, dokler se pogodbeni stranki ne dogovorita drugače.
