In FP6 it is possible for legal entities from EU countries to participate without receiving funding. Their costs will be taken into account for calculating the total cost of the project but not the Community financial contribution. For these cases, the contract can include the special clause for such contractors, indicating that they are not subject to financial audits and audits on accounting and management principles referred to in Article II.29.1. As a consequence, Section 1 of Part B of Annex II (eligible costs of the project, direct costs, indirect costs, cost reporting models, receipts of the project Community financial contribution, reimbursement rates, audit certificates, interest yielded by pre-financing provided by the Commission, payment modalities) do not apply to those contractor(s). Also, such contractors would not be subject to any financial collective responsibility provisions applicable to the project.
