Any funds not expended nor obligated by the end of a given financial year in excess of the 5% maximum set out in the preceeding paragraph shall be considered as surplus funds.

The Parties may jointly direct that surplus funds owed to them be applied to a specific activity in the following year consistent with the mission and objectives of the CEC.
