Ta pravica ne vključuje pravice do glasovanja, razen če država ni prispevala organizaciji v skladu z določbami prvega odstavka 4. člena finančnega protokola, ki je priložen tej konvenciji.
Generalni direktorji in osebje
1. (a) Svet z dvotretjinsko večino glasov vseh držav članic imenuje za vsak laboratorij generalnega direktorja za določeno obdobje in ga lahko z enako večino glasov razreši. Vsak generalni direktor je glavni izvršni direktor organizacije in njen zakoniti zastopnik za laboratorij, ki ga vodi. V zvezi s finančnim upravljanjem deluje v skladu z določbami finančnega protokola, ki je priložen tej konvenciji. Svet lahko z dvotretjinsko večino glasov vseh držav članic prenese na generalne direktorje ločeno ali skupaj pooblastila za delovanje v imenu organizacije v drugih zadevah. Vsi generalni direktorji predložijo svetu tudi letno poročilo in se brez pravice do glasovanja udeležujejo vseh sej sveta.
(b) Svet lahko odloži imenovanje generalnega direktorja za čas, ki se mu zdi potreben, bodisi ob začetku veljavnosti te konvencije ali pozneje, ko je na voljo prosto mesto. V tem primeru imenuje osebo, ki deluje kot vršilec dolžnosti, pri čemer ima tako imenovana oseba pooblastila in odgovornosti, ki jih določi svet.
2. Vsakemu generalnemu direktorju pomaga znanstveno, tehnično, upravno in pisarniško osebje, ki je po mnenju sveta potrebno in ga ta odobri.
3. Svet na priporočilo generalnega direktorja imenuje vse osebje in ga lahko razreši. Za imenovanja in razrešitve, ki jih opravi svet, je potrebna dvotretjinska večina glasov vseh držav članic. Svet lahko z enako večino glasov prenese pooblastila za imenovanje in razrešitev na podrejene organe, ustanovljene v skladu s pogoji dvanajstega odstavka V. člena, ter na generalne direktorje. Vsako tako imenovanje in njegovo prenehanje mora biti v skladu s kadrovskim pravilnikom, ki ga sprejme svet z enako večino glasov. Za vse osebe, ki niso del osebja in jih svet povabi k delu v katerem koli laboratoriju ali so v njegovem imenu povabljene k delu v njem, je pristojen generalni direktor in zanje veljajo splošni pogoji, ki jih lahko odobri svet.
4. Odgovornosti generalnih direktorjev in osebja v zvezi z organizacijo so izključno mednarodnega značaja. Pri opravljanju svojih nalog ne smejo zahtevati ali prejemati navodil od katere koli vlade ali organa zunaj organizacije. Vse države članice spoštujejo mednarodni značaj odgovornosti generalnih direktorjev in osebja ter ne poskušajo vplivati nanje pri opravljanju njihovih nalog.
1. Vse države članice prispevajo k investicijskim izdatkom in tekočim stroškom poslovanja, ki jih ima organizacija:
(a) za obdobje, ki se konča enaintridesetega decembra 1956, kot je določeno v finančnem protokolu, priloženem tej konvenciji, nato pa
(b) v skladu z lestvicami, ki jih vsaka tri leta določi svet z dvotretjinsko večino glasov vseh držav članic in ki temeljijo na povprečnem neto nacionalnem dohodku po stroškovnih faktorjih vsake države članice za zadnja tri predhodna leta, za katera so na voljo statistični podatki, pri čemer
(i) svet lahko v zvezi s katerim koli programom dejavnosti z dvotretjinsko večino glasov vseh držav članic določi najvišji odstotek, ki ga mora država članica plačati od skupnega zneska prispevkov, ki jih odmeri svet za kritje letnih stroškov tega programa; ko je tako določen najvišji odstotek, ga svet z enako večino glasov lahko spremeni, če nobena država članica, ki sodeluje v tem programu, ne glasuje proti;
(ii) se svet lahko z dvotretjinsko večino glasov vseh držav članic odloči, da bo upošteval posebne okoliščine države članice in ustrezno prilagodil njen prispevek; za namen uporabe te določbe se za posebno okoliščino šteje zlasti, če je nacionalni dohodek "per capita" države članice nižji od zneska, ki ga z enako večino glasov določi svet.
2. Kadar sodelovanje organizacije v nacionalnem ali večnacionalnem projektu vzpostavi program dejavnosti organizacije, se uporabljajo pogoji iz prvega odstavka, razen če svet z dvotretjinsko večino glasov vseh držav članic ne določi drugače.
3. Prispevki, ki jih mora država članica plačati v skladu s prvim odstavkom tega člena, se izračunajo za programe, v katerih sodeluje, in se uporabljajo samo zanje.
4. (a) Svet od držav, ki postanejo pogodbenice te konvencije po enaintridesetem decembru 1954, zahteva, da poleg prispevkov za prihodnje investicijske izdatke in tekoče stroške poslovanja plačajo tudi posebni prispevek za že nastale investicijske izdatke organizacije v zvezi s programi, v katerih sodelujejo. Svet zahteva podoben prispevek od držav članic za vsak program, v katerem prvič sodelujejo po njegovem začetku. Znesek tega posebnega prispevka določi svet z dvotretjinsko večino glasov vseh držav članic.
(b) Vsi prispevki, plačani v skladu z določbami pododstavka (a), se uporabijo pri zmanjšanju prispevkov drugih držav članic v zvezi s temi programi.
5. Prispevki, ki jih je treba poravnati v skladu z določbami tega člena, se plačajo v skladu s finančnim protokolom, ki je priložen tej konvenciji.
6. Generalni direktor lahko v okviru pooblastil, ki so mu bila podeljena v skladu s pododstavkom (a) prvega odstavka VI. člena, in ob upoštevanju navodil sveta sprejema darila in zapuščino organizaciji, če za taka darila ali zapuščino ne veljajo pogoji, ki niso v skladu z nameni organizacije.
Sodelovanje z UNESCOM in drugimi organizacijami
Organizacija sodeluje z Organizacijo Združenih narodov za izobraževanje, znanost in kulturo. S sklepom sveta, ki ga sprejme z dvotretjinsko večino glasov vseh držav članic, lahko sodeluje tudi z drugimi organizacijami in institucijami.
Organizacija ima pravno osebnost na matičnih ozemljih vseh držav članic. Organizaciji in predstavnikom držav članic v svetu, članom vseh podrejenih organov, ustanovljenih v skladu z dvanajstim odstavkom V. člena, generalnim direktorjem in članom osebja organizacije se na matičnih ozemljih držav članic na podlagi sporazumov, ki se sklenejo med organizacijo in državami članicami, podelijo morebitni privilegiji in imunitete, ki so po njihovem mnenju potrebni za opravljanje nalog organizacije. Sporazumi, ki jih sklenejo organizacija in države članice, na ozemlju katerih se ustanovijo laboratoriji organizacije, vsebujejo poleg določb o privilegijih in imunitetah tudi določbe, ki urejajo posebne odnose med organizacijo in temi državami članicami.
1. Svet lahko državam članicam priporoči spremembe te konvencije. Vsaka država članica, ki želi predlagati spremembo, o tem uradno obvesti predsednika sveta. Predsednik obvesti vse države članice o vsaki tako priglašeni spremembi najmanj tri mesece pred obravnavo v svetu.
2. Za vsako spremembo te konvencije, ki jo priporoči svet, je potrebno pisno soglasje vseh držav članic. Veljati začne trideset dni po tem, ko predsednik prejme uradno obvestilo o sprejetju od vseh držav članic. Predsednik obvesti vse države članice in generalnega direktorja Organizacije Združenih narodov za izobraževanje, znanost in kulturo o datumu začetka veljavnosti spremembe.
3. Svet lahko z dvotretjinsko večino glasov vseh držav članic spremeni finančni protokol, ki je priložen tej konvenciji, če taka sprememba ni v nasprotju s konvencijo. Vsaka taka sprememba začne veljati na dan, ki ga z enako večino glasov določi svet. Predsednik sveta obvesti vse države članice in generalnega direktorja Organizacije Združenih narodov za izobraževanje, znanost in kulturo o vsaki taki spremembi ter o datumu začetka njene veljavnosti.
Vsi spori med dvema državama članicama ali več državami članicami v zvezi z razlago ali uporabo te konvencije, ki se ne rešijo z dobrimi uslugami sveta, se predložijo Meddržavnemu sodišču, razen če se te države članice ne dogovorijo o kakšnem drugem načinu reševanja.
Po sedmih letih veljavnosti te konvencije lahko država članica ob upoštevanju določb četrtega odstavka III. člena pisno obvesti predsednika sveta o izstopu iz organizacije in tak izstop začne veljati konec finančnega leta, ki sledi letu, v katerem je bilo dano obvestilo, ali na poznejši datum, ki ga predlaga država članica.
Neizpolnjevanje obveznosti
Če država članica ne izpolnjuje svojih obveznosti iz te konvencije, preneha biti članica organizacije na podlagi sklepa sveta, sprejetega z dvotretjinsko večino glasov vseh držav članic.
Organizacija se razpusti, če je v njej kadar koli manj kot pet držav članic. Razpusti se lahko kadar koli s sporazumom med državami članicami. Ob upoštevanju morebitnega sporazuma, sklenjenega med državami članicami ob razpustitvi, je za prenehanje odgovorna država, na ozemlju katere je takrat sedež organizacije, presežek pa se razdeli med države, ki so članice organizacije ob razpustitvi, sorazmerno s prispevki, ki so jih dejansko plačale od dneva, ko so postale pogodbenice te konvencije. V primeru primanjkljaja ga pokrijejo obstoječe države članice v deležih, sorazmernih z odmerjenimi prispevki za takratno tekoče finančno leto.

DRŽAVE POGODBENICE Konvencije o ustanovitvi Evropske organizacije za jedrske raziskave (v nadaljnjem besedilu: konvencija) so se,
V ŽELJI poskrbeti za finančno upravljanje navedene organizacije,
DOGOVORILE:
(1) Finančno leto organizacije traja od prvega januarja do enaintridesetega decembra.

Svet lahko od generalnega direktorja zahteva, da predloži dopolnilni ali popravljeni načrt proračuna, če je to potrebno zaradi okoliščin. Šteje se, da svet ni odobril nobenega predloga, ki vključuje dodatne izdatke, dokler ne odobri načrta dodatnih izdatkov, ki ga je predložil pristojni generalni direktor.
(1) Finančni odbor, ustanovljen z dvanajstim odstavkom V. člena konvencije, sestavljajo predstavniki vseh držav članic.
(2) Finančni odbor pri sprejemanju odločitev upošteva pravila glasovanja in sklepčnosti, ki jih svetu predpisuje V. člen konvencije.
(3) Ta odbor prouči načrte proračuna generalnih direktorjev, nato pa jih skupaj s poročilom odbora pošlje svetu.

Po potrebi se izvedejo povračila za zagotovitev, da so zneski prispevkov, ki so jih plačale vse države članice za to leto, v skladu z novo lestvico.
(5) (a) Finančni odbor po posvetovanju z generalnimi direktorji določi pogoje, pod katerimi se izvajajo plačila prispevkov v skladu z ustreznim financiranjem organizacije.

Računovodstvo in revizija
(1) Vsak generalni direktor vodi natančno evidenco vseh prejemkov in izdatkov.
(2) Svet imenuje revizorje, ki funkcijo najprej opravljajo tri leta in so nato lahko znova imenovani. Revizorji pregledajo računovodske izkaze organizacije, zlasti zato, da potrdijo, da so izdatki v mejah, določenih v finančnem pravilniku, v skladu z določbami proračuna, in opravljajo druge naloge, kot so določene v finančnem pravilniku.
(3) Vsak generalni direktor revizorjem zagotovi informacije in pomoč, ki jih potrebujejo za opravljanje svojih nalog.

(b) Prispevki držav, ki so članice organizacije, ko svet prvič sprejme tak začasni proračun, se začasno odmerijo na podlagi iz drugega odstavka 4. člena, ob upoštevanju klavzul iz točk (i) in (ii) pododstavka (b) prvega odstavka VII. člena konvencije, le da se pri klavzuli (i) šteje, da se trideset odstotkov nadomesti s petindvajsetimi odstotki.*

Ti prispevki bodo v skladu s pododstavkom (d) namenjeni bodisi za naknadno povračilo dela začasnih prispevkov, ki so jih prej plačale druge države članice, bodisi za vplačilo dodatnih proračunskih sredstev, ki jih je v tem obdobju odobril svet.
(d) Končni prispevki, ki jih morajo za obdobje, ki se konča 31. decembra 1954, plačati vse države, ki so na ta dan članice organizacije, se po tem datumu odmerijo za nazaj na podlagi celotnega proračuna za to obdobje, tako da so taki, kot bi bili, če bi vse te države postale pogodbenice konvencije na dan začetka njene veljavnosti. Vsak znesek, ki ga plača država članica in presega njen prispevek, ki je bil tako odmerjen za nazaj, se knjiži v dobro države članice.
