Management structures and procedures. The network will be managed by a Supervisory Board (SB) and an Executive Board (EB) according to the diagram overleaf. The main tasks of the Supervisory Board are to support the Executive Board with advice, to monitor its activities and to follow up the general operations and progress of the network. The Supervisory Board comprises a representative of each of the network partners, including associated and industrial partners and will meet twice a year. The Board elects its chairperson that is not a member of the Executive Board. The Board should monitor all actions taken by the Executive Board to ensure that the network’s goals are effectively fulfilled. It appoints two external advisors for an independent peer-review of the quality of the training programme. The Executive Board is in charge of the overall management of the network’s research and training programme. The EB is chaired by the Co-ordinator of the MC-PAD network. The other members of the EB are appointed by the Supervisory Board for a period of one year (renewable): the deputy network co-ordinator, a co-ordinator for the training program, a co-ordinator for selection matters, and deputies for the latter two. One of the EB’s tasks of particular importance is organization and follow-up of recruitment. It assures that the selected candidates are matched with a project and assigned to a supervisor and that a career development plan including a personal training schedule is established. The organization of network wide training events and workshops will be initiated by the EB. Two external experts will provide feedback and advice on the quality and organization of the training activities. The EB will follow up the research carried out in the projects of the network. For each project, contact persons have been identified who manage and follow up the progress of the projects and also monitor the development of the researchers assigned to the project. Frequent contact and exchange of results between the partners within a project is mandatory and is organized by the partners of that project. Structural problems, disputes or changes to the research plans must be reported to the EB. If required, the EB will intervene to try and solve disputes amicably.

  • Notice and Procedures If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under paragraph (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under paragraph (a) or (b) above. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interest between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be paid or reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for any Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of such Underwriter shall be designated in writing by the Representatives and any such separate firm for the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and any control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request and (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.
