will be manufactured substantially in the United States. However, in
individual cases, the requirement for such an agreement may be waived
by the Buyer and the Office of Naval Research upon a showing by the

15.2 General
15.2.1 The Parties agree that research findings and technology developments in
NEMO technology may constitute a significant enhancement to the
national defense, and to the economic vitality of the United States.
Accordingly, access to important technology developments under this
Contract by Foreign Firms or Institutions must be carefully controlled.
The controls contemplated in this Article are in addition to, and are
not intended to change or supersede, the provisions of the
International Traffic in Arms Regulation (22 CFR Part 121 et seq.), the
DoD Industrial Security Regulation (DoD 5220.22-R) and the Department
of Commerce Export Regulation (15 CFR Part 770 et seq.)
15.2.2 The Parties further agree that the provisions of this Article do not
apply to Non-Subject Technical Data as defined in paragraph 13.9 of
this Contract.
15.3. Restrictions on Sale or Transfer of Technology to Foreign Firms or
Institutions
15.3.1 In order to promote the national security interests of the United
States and to effectuate the policies that underlie the regulations
cited above, the procedures stated in subparagraphs 15.3.2, 15.5.3, and
15.3.4 below shall apply to any transfer of Technology. For purposes of
this paragraph, a transfer includes a sale of the company, and sales or
licensing of Technology. Transfers do not include:
(a) sales of products or components, or
(b) licenses of software or documentation related to sales of
products or components, or
(c) transfer to foreign subsidiaries of the Seller
participants for purposes related to this Contract, or
(d) transfer which provides access to
Technology to a Foreign Firm or Institution which is an approved
source of supply or source for the conduct of research under this
Contract provided that such transfer shall be limited to that necessary
to allow the firm or institution to perform its approved role under
this Contract.
15.3.2 The Seller shall provide timely notice to the Buyer Government of any
proposed transfers from the Seller of Technology developed with
Government funding under this Contract to Foreign Firms or
Institutions. If the Government determines that the transfer may have
adverse consequences to the national security interests of the United
States, the Buyer, the Seller, its vendors, and the Government shall
jointly endeavor to find alternatives to the proposed transfer which
obviate or mitigate potential adverse consequences of the transfer but
which provide substantially equivalent benefits to the Seller.
15.3.3 In any event, the Seller shall provide written notice to the Buyer
Agreement Technical Manager and Grants Officer of any proposed transfer
to a foreign firm or institution at least sixty (60) calendar days
prior to the proposed date of transfer. Such notice shall cite this
Article and shall state specifically what is to be transferred and the
general terms of the transfer. Within thirty (30) calendar days of
receipt of the Seller's written notification, the Buyer Grants Officer
shall advise the Seller whether it consents to the proposed transfer.
In cases where the Government does not concur or sixty (60) calendar
days after receipt and the Government provides no decision, the Seller
may utilize the procedures under Article 20, Resolution of Disputes and
Choice of Law. No transfer shall take place until a decision is
rendered.
15.3.4 Except as provided in subparagraph 15.2 above and in the event the
transfer of Technology to Foreign Firms or Institutions is approved by
the Government, the Seller shall (a) refund to the Government funds
paid for the development of the Technology and (b) negotiate a license
with the Government to the Technology under terms that are reasonable
under the circumstances.
15.4 Lower Tier Agreements. The Seller shall include this Article, suitably
modified to identify the Parties, in all subcontracts or lower tier
