a)
operativnog doprinosa; i

naknade za učešće.
3. Finansijski doprinos plaća se u vidu godišnje uplate u jednoj rati, najkasnije do maja meseca.

Korekcije ovog ključa doprinosa utvrđene su u Aneksu I.
6. Operativni doprinos obračunava se primenom ključa doprinosa, kako je korigovan, na odobrene iznose za preuzimanje obaveza koje su unete u konačno usvojeni budžet Unije za odgovarajuću godinu radi finansiranja Programa EU4Health.
7. Naknada za učešće iznosi 4% godišnjeg početnog operativnog doprinosa obračunatog u skladu sa i postepeno se uvodi u skladu sa Aneksom I. Naknada za učešće ne podleže naknadnim usklađivanjima ili korekcijama.

Član5.

Završne odredbe

1. Ovaj sporazum stupa na snagu danom kada Strane međusobno obaveste jedna drugu o okončanju svojih unutrašnjih procedura neophodnih za tu svrhu.
2. Ovaj sporazum primenjuje se od 1. januara 2026. godine. Ostaje na snazi onoliko dugo koliko je potrebno da se završe svi projekti, mere, aktivnosti ili njihovi delovi finansirani iz Programa EU4Health, sve mere neophodne radi zaštite finansijskih interesa Evropske unije, kao i sve finansijske obaveze koje proizlaze iz sprovođenja ovog sporazuma između Strana.
3. Unija i Srbija mogu ovaj sporazum primenjivati privremeno, u skladu sa svojim unutrašnjim procedurama i zakonodavstvom. Privremena primena počinje danom kada Strane međusobno obaveste jedna drugu o okončanju svojih unutrašnjih procedura neophodnih za tu svrhu.
4. Ukoliko Srbija obavesti Komisiju, koja postupa u ime Evropske unije, da neće okončati svoje unutrašnje procedure neophodne za stupanje na snagu ovog sporazuma, ovaj sporazum prestaje da se privremeno primenjuje danom prijema tog obaveštenja od strane Komisije, koji predstavlja dan prestanka primene za potrebe ovog sporazuma.
5. Primena ovog sporazuma može biti suspendovana od strane Evropske unije u slučaju neplaćanja finansijskog doprinosa koji Srbija duguje u skladu sa
članom 3.
 ovog sporazuma i
tačkom II stava 3. Aneksa I
. O suspenziji primene ovog sporazuma Komisija obaveštava Srbiju zvaničnim pismom obaveštenja, koje proizvodi pravno dejstvo 20 dana od dana prijema tog obaveštenja od strane Srbije. U slučaju suspenzije primene ovog sporazuma, pravna lica osnovana u Srbiji nemaju pravo učešća u postupcima dodele koji nisu okončani u trenutku stupanja suspenzije na snagu. Postupak dodele smatra se okončanim kada su pravne obaveze preuzete kao rezultat tog postupka. Suspenzija ne utiče na pravne obaveze preuzete sa pravnim licima osnovanim u Srbiji pre stupanja suspenzije na snagu. Ovaj sporazum nastavlja da se primenjuje na takve pravne obaveze. Evropska unija bez odlaganja obaveštava Srbiju kada bude primljen ukupan iznos dospelog finansijskog doprinosa. Suspenzija se ukida sa trenutnim dejstvom po dostavljanju tog obaveštenja. Od dana ukidanja suspenzije, pravna lica osnovana u Srbiji ponovo stiču pravo učešća u postupcima dodele pokrenutim nakon tog dana, kao i u postupcima pokrenutim pre tog dana za koje rokovi za podnošenje prijava još nisu istekli.
6. Svaka od Strana može u svakom trenutku raskinuti ovaj sporazum pismenim obaveštenjem o nameri da ga raskine. Raskid proizvodi pravno dejstvo tri kalendarska meseca od dana kada pismeno obaveštenje bude dostavljeno primaocu. Dan stupanja raskida na snagu smatra se datumom raskida za potrebe ovog sporazuma.
7. U slučaju da ovaj sporazum prestane da se privremeno primenjuje u skladu sa
stavom 4.
 ili bude raskinut u skladu sa
stavom 6. ovog člana
, Strane su saglasne da:
a)
projekti, mere, aktivnosti ili njihovi delovi u pogledu kojih su pravne obaveze preuzete tokom privremene primene i/ili nakon stupanja ovog sporazuma na snagu, a pre prestanka primene ili raskida, nastavljaju da se sprovode do njihovog okončanja pod uslovima utvrđenim ovim sporazumom;
b)
godišnji finansijski doprinos za godinu N u kojoj ovaj sporazum prestane da se privremeno primenjuje ili bude raskinut plaća se u celosti u skladu sa
članom 3.
 ovog sporazuma. Strane sporazumno uređuju sve druge posledice raskida ili prestanka privremene primene ovog sporazuma.
8. Ovaj sporazum može se menjati i dopunjavati isključivo u pisanoj formi, uz zajedničku saglasnost Strana. Stupanje na snagu izmena i dopuna sprovodi se po istom postupku koji važi za stupanje na snagu ovog sporazuma.
9. Aneksi ovog sporazuma čine njegov sastavni deo. Ovaj sporazum sačinjen je u dva primerka na engleskom jeziku.

ANEKS II: Dobro finansijsko upravljanje, zaštita finansijskih interesa i povraćaj sredstava
Aneks I
Pravila koja uređuju finansijski doprinos Srbije Programu EU4Health
(2021–2027)
I. Obračun finansijskog doprinosa Srbije
1. Finansijski doprinos Srbije Programu EU4Health utvrđuje se na godišnjem nivou, srazmerno iznosu koji je svake godine raspoloživ u budžetu Unije za odobrene iznose za preuzimanje obaveza potrebne za upravljanje, sprovođenje i funkcionisanje Programa EU4Health, i predstavlja dodatak tom iznosu.
2. Naknada za učešće iz člana 3. stav 7. ovog sporazuma postepeno se uvodi na sledeći način:
- 2026: 3%;
- 2027: 4%.
3. U skladu sa članom 3. stav 5. ovog sporazuma, početni operativni doprinos koji Srbija plaća za svoje učešće u Programu EU4Health obračunava se za odgovarajuće budžetske godine primenom korekcije na ključ doprinosa.
Korekcija ključa doprinosa vrši se prema sledećoj formuli:
Korigovani ključ doprinosa = Ključ doprinosa × Koeficijent
Koeficijent koji se primenjuje radi korekcije ključa doprinosa iznosi 0,50 za 2026. i
2027. godinu.
II. Plaćanje finansijskog doprinosa Srbije
1. Komisija dostavlja Srbiji, što je pre moguće, a najkasnije prilikom upućivanja prvog poziva za uplatu sredstava u datoj budžetskoj godini, sledeće informacije:
a. iznose odobrenih sredstava za preuzimanje obaveza u konačno usvojenom budžetu Unije za predmetnu godinu, po budžetskim linijama koje obuhvataju učešće Srbije u Programu EU4Health;
b. iznos naknade za učešće iz člana 3. stav 7. ovog sporazuma.
Na osnovu Nacrta budžeta, Komisija dostavlja, što je pre moguće, a najkasnije do 1. septembra budžetske godine, procenu informacija za narednu godinu u vezi sa tačkama (a) i (b).
2. Komisija upućuje Srbiji, najkasnije u aprilu svake budžetske godine, poziv za uplatu sredstava koji odgovara njenom finansijskom doprinosu u skladu sa ovim sporazumom.
Svaki poziv za uplatu predviđa da se finansijski doprinos Srbije plati najkasnije u roku od 30 dana od dana upućivanja poziva.
Za prvu godinu sprovođenja ovog sporazuma, Komisija upućuje poziv za uplatu u roku od 60 dana od dana potpisivanja ovog sporazuma.
3. Srbija uplaćuje svoj finansijski doprinos u skladu sa tačkom II ovog aneksa. Ukoliko Srbija ne izvrši uplatu do dospeća, Komisija upućuje formalno pismo opomene.
Svako kašnjenje u uplati finansijskog doprinosa povlači obavezu plaćanja zatezne kamate od strane Srbije na neizmireni iznos, počev od dana dospeća.
Kamatna stopa za potraživanja koja nisu izmirena do dospeća je stopa koju Evropska centralna banka primenjuje na svoje glavne operacije refinansiranja, objavljena u seriji C Službenog lista Evropske unije, koja važi prvog kalendarskog dana meseca u kojem nastupa dospeće, uvećana za tri i po procentna poena.
U slučaju da je kašnjenje u uplati doprinosa takvo da može ozbiljno ugroziti sprovođenje i upravljanje Programom EU4Health, Komisija će suspendovati učešće Srbije u Programu EU4Health nakon isteka 20 radnih dana od upućivanja formalnog pisma opomene, ne dovodeći u pitanje obaveze Unije koje proizlaze iz već zaključenih ugovora o dodeli bespovratnih sredstava i/ili ugovora koji se odnose na sprovođenje indirektnih aktivnosti za koje je Srbija izabrana.

Borba protiv nepravilnosti, prevara i drugih krivičnih dela koja utiču na finansijske interese Unije

1. Evropska komisija i Evropska kancelarija za borbu protiv prevara (OLAF) ovlašćene su da sprovode administrativne istrage, uključujući provere i inspekcije na licu mesta, na teritoriji Srbije. Ove istrage sprovode se u skladu sa uslovima i odredbama utvrđenim primenljivim aktima jedne ili više institucija Unije.
2. Nadležni organi Srbije obaveštavaju Evropsku komisiju ili OLAF u razumnom roku o svakoj činjenici ili sumnji koja im je postala poznata, a koja se odnosi na nepravilnost, prevaru ili drugu nezakonitu aktivnost koja utiče na finansijske interese Unije.
3. Provere i inspekcije na licu mesta mogu se sprovoditi u prostorijama svakog fizičkog lica sa prebivalištem u Srbiji ili pravnog lica osnovanog u Srbiji koje prima sredstva Unije, kao i svakog trećeg lica uključenog u sprovođenje sredstava Unije koje ima prebivalište ili je osnovano u Srbiji.
4. Provere i inspekcije na licu mesta pripremaju i sprovode Komisija ili OLAF u bliskoj saradnji sa nadležnim organom Srbije koji odredi Vlada Srbije. Određeni organ se obaveštava u razumnom roku unapred o predmetu, svrsi i pravnom osnovu provera i inspekcija, kako bi mogao da pruži pomoć. U tom cilju, službenici nadležnih organa Srbije mogu učestvovati u proverama i inspekcijama na licu mesta.
5. Na zahtev organa Srbije, provere i inspekcije na licu mesta mogu se sprovoditi zajednički sa Komisijom ili OLAF-om.
6. Službenici Komisije i osoblje OLAF-a imaju pristup svim informacijama i dokumentaciji, uključujući računarske podatke, u vezi sa predmetnim aktivnostima, koje su neophodne za pravilno sprovođenje provera i inspekcija na licu mesta. Oni mogu, naročito, kopirati relevantna dokumenta.
7. Ukoliko se lice, pravno lice ili drugo treće lice protivi proveri ili inspekciji na licu mesta, organi Srbije će, postupajući u skladu sa nacionalnim propisima, pružiti pomoć Komisiji ili OLAF-u kako bi im omogućili da izvrše svoje dužnosti u sprovođenju provere ili inspekcije na licu mesta. Ta pomoć obuhvata preduzimanje odgovarajućih mera predostrožnosti u skladu sa nacionalnim pravom, naročito radi obezbeđivanja dokaza.
8. Komisija ili OLAF obaveštava nadležne organe Srbije o rezultatima takvih provera i inspekcija. Posebno, Komisija ili OLAF obaveštava nadležni organ Srbije, u najkraćem mogućem roku, o svakoj činjenici ili sumnji u vezi sa nepravilnošću koja im je postala poznata tokom sprovođenja provere ili inspekcije na licu mesta.
9. Ne dovodeći u pitanje primenu krivičnog zakonodavstva Srbije, Komisija može izreći administrativne mere i sankcije pravnim ili fizičkim licima iz Srbije koja učestvuju u sprovođenju programa ili aktivnosti, u skladu sa zakonodavstvom Evropske unije.
10. Radi pravilnog sprovođenja ovog člana, Komisija ili OLAF i nadležni organi Srbije redovno razmenjuju informacije i, na zahtev jedne od Strana ovog sporazuma, međusobno se konsultuju.
11. Radi olakšavanja efikasne saradnje i razmene informacija sa OLAF-om, Srbija određuje kontakt tačku.

13. Organi Srbije sarađuju sa Kancelarijom evropskog javnog tužioca (EPPO) kako bi joj omogućili da izvršava svoju dužnost istraživanja, krivičnog gonjenja i izvođenja pred sud počinilaca i saučesnika krivičnih dela koja utiču na finansijske interese Evropske unije, u skladu sa primenljivim zakonodavstvom.

Povraćaj sredstava i izvršenje

1. Odluke koje donese Komisija, a kojima se pravnim ili fizičkim licima, osim državama, nameće novčana obaveza u vezi sa potraživanjima koja proizlaze iz Programa EU4Health, izvršive su u Srbiji. Nalog za izvršenje prilaže se uz odluku, bez ikakve druge formalnosti osim provere autentičnosti odluke od strane nacionalnog organa koji u tu svrhu odredi Vlada Srbije. Vlada Srbije obaveštava Komisiju i Sud pravde Evropske unije o određenom nacionalnom organu. U skladu sa
članom 4.
 ovog aneksa, Evropska komisija ima pravo da takve izvršive odluke direktno dostavi licima sa prebivalištem i pravnim licima osnovanim u Srbiji. Izvršenje se sprovodi u skladu sa pravom i procesnim pravilima Srbije.
2. Presude i nalozi Suda pravde Evropske unije doneti primenom arbitražne klauzule sadržane u ugovoru ili sporazumu u vezi sa programima, aktivnostima, merama ili projektima Unije izvršivi su u Srbiji na isti način kao i odluke Komisije iz
stava 1. ovog člana
.
3. Sud pravde Evropske unije nadležan je za ocenu zakonitosti odluke Komisije iz
stava 1. ovog člana
 i za odlučivanje o obustavi njenog izvršenja. Međutim, sudovi Srbije nadležni su za odlučivanje o pritužbama da se izvršenje sprovodi na nepravilan način.
Član4.

Komunikacija i razmena informacija

Institucije i tela Evropske unije uključeni u sprovođenje Programa EU4Health ili u kontrolu tog programa imaju pravo da neposredno komuniciraju, uključujući putem elektronskih sistema razmene, sa svim fizičkim licima sa prebivalištem u Srbiji ili pravnim licima osnovanim u Srbiji koja primaju sredstva Unije, kao i sa svim trećim licima uključenim u sprovođenje sredstava Unije koja imaju prebivalište ili su osnovana u Srbiji. Ta lica, pravna lica i treća lica mogu direktno dostavljati institucijama i telima Evropske unije sve relevantne informacije i dokumentaciju koje su dužni da dostave na osnovu zakonodavstva Evropske unije koje se primenjuje na Program EU4Health, kao i na osnovu ugovora ili sporazuma zaključenih radi sprovođenja tog programa.
