In case of changes in the partnership, the MA/JS is entitled to withdraw from the Subsidy Contract if the number of PPs falls below the minimum number of participants required by the programme. The PPs agree not to back out of the project unless there are unavoidable reasons for it. In case a PP withdraws from the project or is debarred by the other PPs for not fulfilling the obligations set in this Agreement, the remaining PPs will undertake to find a rapid and efficient solution to ensure the further proper project implementation without any delay. Consequently, the PPs will endeavour to cover the contribution of the withdrawn or debarred PP, either by assuming its tasks by one or more of the present PPs or by asking one or more new participants to join the project partnership, regarding the respective programme provisions. The provisions set for audits in Article 8 remain applicable to the PP that backed out of the project or was debarred from the project and this PP bears the overall financial responsibility for the activities completed including the responsibility for repayment of the amount unduly paid in line with Article 11.
