This award is based on the application submitted to, and as approved
by, NIH on the above-titled project and is subject to the terms and conditions incorporated either directly or by reference in the following:


 


		a.	The grant program legislation and program regulation cited in this Notice of Award.



 


		b.	Conditions on activities and expenditure of funds in other statutory requirements, such as those included in appropriations acts.



 






    Page-3


     


    

 


		c.	45 CFR Part 75.



 


		d.	National Policy Requirements and all other requirements described in the NIH Grants Policy Statement, including addenda in effect
as of the beginning date of the budget period.



 


		e.	Federal Award Performance Goals: As required by the periodic report in the RPPR or in the final progress report when applicable.



 


		f.	This award notice, INCLUDING THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CITED BELOW.



 


(See NIH Home Page at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/awardconditions.htm
for certain references cited above.)


 


Research and Development (R&D): All awards issued by the
National Institutes of Health (NIH) meet the definition of “Research and Development” at 45 CFR Part § 75.2. As
such, auditees should identify NIH awards as part of the R&D cluster on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA). The
auditor should test NIH awards for compliance as instructed in Part V, Clusters of Programs. NIH recognizes that some awards may have
another classification for purposes of indirect costs. The auditor is not required to report the disconnect (i.e., the award is classified
as R&D for Federal Audit Requirement purposes but non-research for indirect cost rate purposes), unless the auditee is charging indirect
costs at a rate other than the rate(s) specified in the award document(s).


 


An unobligated balance may be carried over into the next budget period
without Grants Management Officer prior approval.


 


This grant is subject to Streamlined Noncompeting Award Procedures
(SNAP).


 


MULTI-YEAR FUNDED AWARD: This is a multi-year funded award.
A progress report is due annually on or before the anniversary of the budget/project period start date of the award, in accord with the
instructions posted at: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/myf.htm.


 


This award is subject to the requirements of 2 CFR Part 25 for institutions
to receive a Dun & Bradstreet Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number and maintain an active registration in the System for Award
Management (SAM). Should a consortium/subaward be issued under this award, a DUNS requirement must be included. See http://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/awardconditions.htm
for the full NIH award term implementing this requirement and other additional information.


 


This award has been assigned the Federal Award Identification Number
(FAIN) RF1AG051593. Recipients must document the assigned FAIN on each consortium/subaward issued under this award.


 


Based on the project period start date of this project, this award
is likely subject to the Transparency Act subaward and executive compensation reporting requirement of 2 CFR Part 170. There are conditions
that may exclude this award; see http://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/awardconditions.htm for
additional award applicability information.


 


In accordance with P.L. 110-161, compliance with the NIH Public Access
Policy is now mandatory. For more information, see NOT-OD-08-033 and the Public Access website: http://publicaccess.nih.gov/.


 


This award provides support for one or more clinical trials. By law
(Title VIII, Section 801 of Public Law 110-85), the “responsible party” must register
 “applicable clinical trials” on the ClinicalTrials.gov Protocol Registration System Information
Website. NIH encourages registration of all trials whether required under the law or not. For more information, see http://grants.nih.gov/ClinicalTrials
fdaaa/.

This award represents the final year of the competitive segment for
this grant. See the NIH Grants Policy Statement Section 8.6 Closeout for complete closeout requirements at: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/policy.htm#gps.


 


A final expenditure Federal Financial Report (FFR) (SF 425) must be
submitted through the eRA Commons (Commons) within 120 days of the expiration date; see the NIH Grants Policy Statement Section 8.6.1
Financial Reports, http://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/policy.htm#gps, for additional information
on this submission requirement. The final FFR must indicate the exact balance of unobligated funds and may not reflect any unliquidated
obligations. There must be no discrepancies between the final FFR expenditure data and the Payment Management System’s (PMS) quarterly
cash transaction data. A final quarterly federal cash transaction report is not required for awards in PMS B subaccounts (i.e., awards
to foreign entities and to Federal agencies). NIH will close the awards using the last recorded cash drawdown level in PMS for awards
that do not require a final FFR on expenditures or quarterly federal cash transaction reporting. It is important to note that for financial
closeout, if a grantee fails to submit a required final expenditure FFR, NIH will close the grant using the last recorded cash drawdown
level. If the grantee submits a final expenditure FFR but does not reconcile any discrepancies between expenditures reported on the final
expenditure FFR and the last cash report to PMS, NIH will close the award at the lower amount. This could be considered a debt or result
in disallowed costs.


 


A Final Invention Statement and Certification form (HHS 568), (not
applicable to training, construction, conference or cancer education grants) must be submitted within 120 days of the expiration date.
The HHS 568 form may be downloaded at: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/forms.htm. This paragraph
does not apply to Training grants, Fellowships, and certain other programs—i.e., activity codes C06, R13, R25, S10.


 


Unless an application for competitive renewal is submitted, a final
progress report must also be submitted within 120 days of the expiration date. Instructions for preparing a Final Progress Report are
at: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/funding/finalprogressreport.pdf. Any other specific requirements
set forth in the terms and conditions of the award must also be addressed in the final progress report. Institute/Centers may accept
the progress report contained in competitive renewal (type 2) in lieu of a separate final progress report. Contact the awarding IC for
IC- specific policy regarding acceptance of a progress report contained in a competitive renewal application in lieu of a separate final
progress report.


 


NIH strongly encourages electronic submission of the final progress
report and the final invention statement through the Closeout feature in the Commons, but will accept an email or hard copy submission
as indicated below.


 


Email: The final progress report and final invention statement may
be e-mailed as PDF attachments to: NIHCloseoutCenter@,mail.nih.gov.


 


Hard copy: Paper submissions of the final progress report and the final
invention statement may be faxed to the NIH Division of Central Grants Processing, Grants Closeout Center, at 301-4802304, or mailed
to:


 


National Institutes of Health

Office of Extramural Research

Suite 5016, MSC 7986

Bethesda, MD 20892-7986 (for regular or U.S. Postal Service Express mail)

Bethesda, MD 20817 (for other courier/express deliveries only)


 


NOTE: If this is the final year of a competitive segment due to the
transfer of the grant to another institution, then a Final Progress Report is not required. However, a final expenditure FFR is required
and should be submitted electronically as noted above. If not already submitted, the Final Invention Statement is required and should
be sent directly to the assigned Grants Management Specialist.
