comparat�vely opt�mal manner from an arch�tectural, aesthet�c, cultural, env�ronmental, econom�c, funct�onal and construct�on v�ewpo�nt. The
Part�c�pant subm�tt�ng the Proposal wh�ch w�ll rece�ve the 1st Cash Pr�ze (here�nafter the “Prospective Architect”) may be awarded the
Project by the Organ�s�ng Author�ty �n accordance w�th the terms of th�s Art�cle 7.
7.2 The Prospect�ve Arch�tect may propose to the Organ�s�ng Author�ty a Work�ng Group for the preparat�on of the f�nal des�gns (here�nafter

the Project shall be concluded between Athens College and the Prospect�ve Arch�tect, to wh�ch contract the Donor shall also be a th�rd party,
or wh�ch must �n any case be expressly approved by the Donor. In th�s case, before conclud�ng the contract to award the Project, the
Organ�s�ng Author�ty may request that the Prospect�ve Arch�tect prov�de documents, such as a recent general G.E.MI. (GENERAL
COMMERCIAL REGISTRY) cert�f�cate, a cert�f�cate of current representat�on �ssued by the G.E.MI. (GENERAL COMMERCIAL REGISTRY), a

beh�nd the Prospect�ve Arch�tect’s Proposal.
7.5 In case the Organ�s�ng Author�ty cons�ders, after hav�ng taken �nto account the relevant calculat�ons, that the construct�on of the Proposal
wh�ch has rece�ved the 1st Cash Pr�ze, would exceed the total est�mated cost of construct�ng the Bu�ld�ng, namely a total of € 4,500,000
exclud�ng VAT, �t shall be ent�tled to not ass�gn the Project to the Prospect�ve Arch�tect and may reconvene, �n order to ass�gn the Project to
the Part�c�pant who rece�ved the next Cash Pr�ze, prov�ded that the terms of th�s Art�cle are compl�ed w�th. If �t �s subsequently deemed that
the construct�on of the Proposal wh�ch rece�ved the next Cash Pr�ze would exceed the total est�mated cost of construct�ng the Bu�ld�ng, then
the Organ�s�ng Author�ty �s ent�tled to ass�gn the Project to the Part�c�pant who rece�ved the next Cash Pr�ze, and so on.
