Examples of Research Year in a sentence
At least three (3) months prior to the beginning of any extension of the Research Term, the JRC shall determine the number of Ambrx FTEs to be provided and funded by BMS to perform the Research Program during such Research Year of the Research Term, provided that if the JRC is unable to reach consensus, BMS shall have final decision making authority with respect to the number of BMS funded Ambrx FTEs, subject to Section 3.3 and this Section 3.4.
Subject to Section 3.4(b), BMS will fund at the FTE Rate, and Ambrx will provide the number of Ambrx FTEs per Research Year during the Research Term to perform activities in support of the Research Program, in accordance with the then-current Research Plan, and in accordance with this Section 3.4. Throughout the Research Term, Ambrx shall assign no less than the number of qualified scientist FTEs in accordance with this Section 3.4 to perform the work set forth in the then-applicable Research Plan.
If the average FTE level for any Research Year is less than the level specified below for that year (the difference being referred to in this section as an "FTE Shortfall"), then the amount of funding specified below for that Research Year shall be reduced by an amount (the "FTE Shortfall Amount") which bears the same relation to the total funding specified below for that Research Year as the FTE Shortfall bears to the projected FTE Level for that Year.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the FTE Shortfall Amount will not be applied to compensate VERTEX on account of more than 20 Excess FTE's in any one Research Year.
In any such subsequent Research Year, VERTEX shall be entitled to receive out of any remaining FTE Shortfall Amount a payment equal to the value (computed with reference to the inflation-adjusted FTE rate specified above) of any FTE's actually employed during that Research Year in excess of the FTE Level specified for that year ("Excess FTE's").
