3. člen
1. Pri projektih za izboljšanje gospodarske in družbene infrastrukture delež financiranja Republike Slovenije običajno ne presega 50 odstotkov celotne vrednosti. Preostala sredstva zagotovi ustrezni pravni subjekt v državi prejemnici.

3. Država prejemnica se samostojno odloči, kako bo zaprla finančno konstrukcijo projekta.
4. člen
Država prejemnica izbere izvajalce v skladu z notranjo zakonodajo, ki ureja javne finance in javna naročila. V posebnih primerih, ko Republika Slovenija prispeva večino sredstev, Center za mednarodno sodelovanje in razvoj v dogovoru s prejemnikom donacije izbere izvajalca na podlagi razpisa, objavljenega v Republiki Sloveniji v skladu s slovensko zakonodajo na področju javnih financ in javnih naročil.
Strani se dogovorita, da za dejavnosti tehnične pomoči zagotovita sredstva v okvirnem znesku 370.000 EUR.
6. člen
1. Republika Slovenija dejavno podpira vključevanje Črne gore v Evropsko unijo ter prevzemanje standardov in normativov EU, in sicer tako, da ji v izvedbi svojih ministrstev, agencij, organov v sestavi ter vladnih služb zagotovi strokovno-tehnično pomoč v okvirnem znesku do 350.000 EUR.

IV. DRUGE OBLIKE SODELOVANJA
1. Strani spodbujata razvojne dejavnosti, ki jih nevladne organizacije iz Republike Slovenije v Črni gori izvajajo v sodelovanju s črnogorskimi, pa tudi druge oblike dvostranskega razvojnega sodelovanja, na primer projekte, ki se izvajajo regionalno ali za več partnerskih držav hkrati. Republika Slovenija je za takšne projekte predvidela 154.935 EUR.
2.

V skladu s protokolom so državljani Republike Slovenije in državljani Črne gore upravičeni do enakih pogojev za izobraževanje v obeh državah, kar pomeni, da so študenti iz obeh držav oproščeni plačila šolnine, ki je sicer predvidena za tuje državljane; glede plačila šolnine za javne visokošolske zavode imajo torej enak status kot domači študenti.
Konkretne dejavnosti in podrobnosti glede izvajanja programa usklajuje skupni odbor za razvojno sodelovanje Ministrstva za zunanje in evropske zadeve Republike Slovenije in Ministrstva za zunanje zadeve Črne gore.

Tak dogovor o spremembi seznama projektov se sklene v obliki priloge, ki je sestavni del programa in začne veljati v skladu z določbami 11. člena programa.
10. člen
Morebitne spore glede izvajanja programa strani rešujeta po mirni poti z medsebojnim posvetovanjem.
11. člen
Program se začasno uporablja od dneva podpisa. Veljati začne trideseti dan po podpisu in velja do 31. decembra 2025. Dejavnosti, ki ne bi bile končane do 31. decembra 2025, se do končne izvedbe urejajo v skladu z določbami Sporazuma med Vlado Republike Slovenije in Vlado Črne gore o razvojnem sodelovanju, razen če se strani ne dogovorita drugače.
