Države pogodbenice tega sporazuma so se,
ker se zavedajo pomembne vloge molekularne biologije pri napredovanju znanosti in blaginji človeštva,
ker menijo, da je treba z medvladno akcijo dopolniti in okrepiti mednarodno sodelovanje, ki že poteka na tem področju,
ker želijo razviti evropsko sodelovanje na področju molekularne biologije, zato da bi spodbujale dejavnosti, ki so posebnega znanstvenega pomena,
ker upoštevajo, da je Evropska organizacija za molekularno biologijo (European Molecular Biology Organization – v nadaljevanju EMBO) sprejela tiste določbe tega sporazuma, ki se nanašajo nanjo,
dogovorile, kot sledi:

Ustanovi se Evropska konferenca za molekularno biologijo, v nadaljevanju konferenca.

1. Konferenca skrbi za sodelovanje med evropskimi državami pri temeljnih raziskavah v molekularni biologiji kot tudi na drugih področjih raziskav, ki so z njo tesno povezana.
2. Splošni program, za uresničevanje katerega naj bi skrbela konferenca, na prvi stopnji obsega:
a) zagotovitev štipendij za strokovno usposabljanje, za predavateljsko in raziskovalno delo,
b) pomoč univerzam in drugim visokošolskim ustanovam, ki želijo sprejeti gostujoče profesorje,
c) vzpostavitev programov za tečaje in organizacijo študijskih srečanj, usklajenih s programi univerz in drugih visokošolskih in znanstvenih ustanov.
Konferenca izvedbo splošnega programa zaupa EMBO.
Splošni program oziroma sredstva za njegovo izvedbo se lahko spremenijo na podlagi odločitve konference, ki jo soglasno sprejmejo članice, ki so prisotne in glasujejo.
3. Projekti, ki jih konferenca prouči in so jih pripravljene izvesti samo nekatere članice, se imenujejo posebni projekti. Vsak poseben projekt odobri konferenca z dvotretjinsko večino članic, ki so prisotne in glasujejo. Izvedba posebnega projekta se določi s posebnim sporazumom med državami, ki pri njem sodelujejo. Vsaka članica ima pravico sodelovati kadar koli kasneje pri posebnem projektu, ki je že bil odobren.

1. Članice konference so države pogodbenice tega sporazuma.
2. Konferenca lahko s soglasnim sklepom članic, ki so prisotne in glasujejo, dovoli drugim evropskim državam kot tudi državam, ki so bistveno prispevale k delu EMBO od njene ustanovitve naprej, da postanejo članice tako, da pristopijo k temu sporazumu, ko začne veljati.
3. Konferenca lahko s soglasnim sklepom članic, ki so prisotne in glasujejo, vzpostavi sodelovanje z državami nečlanicami, državnimi telesi ali mednarodnimi vladnimi ali nevladnimi organizacijami.

b) kakršna koli darila članic poleg njihovih finančnih prispevkov pod pogojem, da so v skladu z nameni konference,
c) vsi drugi viri, zlasti darila zasebnih organizacij ali posameznikov, kar predhodno odobri konferenca z dvotretjinsko večino članic, ki so prisotne in glasujejo.

1. Vsaka članica prispeva tako k izdatkom, ki nastanejo zaradi uresničevanja splošnega programa, kot tudi k tistim, ki se nanašajo na delovanje konference, v skladu z lestvico, o kateri vsaka tri leta odloča konferenca z dvotretjinsko večino vseh članic in temelji na povprečnem neto narodnem dohodku ob stroškovnem faktorju vsake članice za zadnja tri predhodna leta, za katera so na voljo statistični podatki.
2. Konferenca lahko z dvotretjinsko večino vseh članic odloči, da upošteva kakršne koli posebne okoliščine, ki vplivajo na članico, in da ustrezno spremeni njen prispevek. Pri uporabi te določbe izraz “posebne okoliščine” vključuje zlasti položaj, kjer je narodni dohodek na prebivalca države članice manjši od zneska, ki ga konferenca določi z dvotretjinsko večino.
3. Če država postane pogodbenica sporazuma ali pa to preneha biti, se spremeni lestvica prispevkov, omenjena v prvem odstavku. Nova lestvica začne veljati od začetka naslednjega obračunskega leta.
4. Generalni sekretar uradno obvesti članice o znesku njihovega prispevka v obračunskih enotah, ki pomenijo težo 0,88867088 grama čistega zlata, in o datumih, ko ga je treba plačati.
5. Generalni sekretar podrobno vodi poslovne knjige prihodkov in odhodkov. Konferenca imenuje revizorje, da pregledajo njen zaključni račun in v skladu s finančnimi predpisi pregledajo zaključni račun EMBO. Generalni sekretar in EMBO zagotovita revizorjem vse potrebne informacije in pomoč za opravljanje njihovih dolžnosti.

Kakršen koli spor med članicama ali več članicami glede razlage ali uporabe tega sporazuma, ki se ne reši s pomočjo konference, se predloži na zahtevo katere koli sprte strani Mednarodnemu sodišču, razen če se prizadete članice v razumnem roku ne dogovorijo o drugačnem načinu reševanja.

1. Ta sporazum se lahko dopolni ali spremeni, kadar to zahtevata najmanj dve tretjini vseh članic.
2. Predlog amandmaja se uvrsti na dnevni red rednega zasedanja takoj po deponiranju predloga pri generalnem sekretarju. Tak predlog se lahko obravnava tudi na izrednem zasedanju.
3. Vsak amandma k temu sporazumu morajo soglasno sprejeti vse članice konference, tako da svoje sprejetje pisno uradno sporočijo švicarski vladi.
4. Amandmaji začnejo veljati 30 dni po deponiranju zadnje pisne notifikacije o sprejetju.

Razen če se članice drugače ne dogovorijo o razpustitvi konference, se generalnemu sekretarju zaupajo vsa vprašanja, povezana z razpustitvijo konference. Razen če konferenca ne določi drugače, se presežek razdeli med članice v sorazmerju s prispevki, ki so jih plačale od dneva, ko so postale pogodbenice tega sporazuma. Morebitni primanjkljaj krijejo članice v istem sorazmerju, kot je bilo tisto, po katerem so bili za tekoče obračunsko leto odmerjeni prispevki.

1. Ta sporazum je odprt za podpis državam, ki so ga sestavile.
2. Ta sporazum je treba ratificirati, sprejeti ali odobriti. Ustrezne listine se deponirajo pri švicarski vladi.
