The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (the Foundation ) hereby agrees to provide a grant ( Grant ) in the amount of two million and six hundred seventeen thousand and six hundred eighty U.S. dollars ($2,617,680.00) (the Grant Funds ) to the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development ( IBRD ) and the International Development Association ( IDA ) (collectively, the Bank ). The Grant Funds will be held in the Development of Health Insurance Challenge Fund Trust Fund (TF No. 071506) (the Trust Fund ) in accordance with the terms of this grant agreement ( Agreement ) for the purpose of developing and implementing the concept of a Health Insurance Challenge Fund to contribute to better health outcomes in developing countries through improved financing and operation of health services as described in the proposal and budget dated August 20, 2010 (collectively, the Proposal ) submitted by the Bank to the Foundation (the Project ). The applicable Bank trust Fund expenditure categories are set forth in Annex 1. 2. Subject to Section 7 below, the Grant Funds and any interest earned thereon will be used solely for the purpose of the Project, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 3. The Bank has confirmed that it is an international organization designated as such by Executive Order under the International Organizations Immunities Act, 22 USC 288, Executive Orders 9751 and 11966. The Bank agrees to advise the Foundation immediately if there is any change in the Bank s exempt status during the term of this Agreement. 4. The use of the Grant Funds and earnings thereon is restricted solely to the purposes of the Project and may not be expended for reasons unassociated with the Project. No portion of this Grant is earmarked for lobbying activities. The Grant Funds may be commingled with other trust fund assets maintained by the Bank, but shall be kept separate and apart from the funds of the Bank. The Grant Funds may be freely exchanged into other currencies as may facilitate their disbursement. The Bank agrees to invest the Grant Funds in accordance with the Bank s policies and procedures for the investment of trust funds administered

by the Bank. The Bank shall credit all income from such investment to the Trust Fund to be used for the purposes of the Project. The Bank shall maintain separate records and ledger accounts in respect of the Grant Funds and disbursements made therefrom. Any increases or decreases to a total budget line (as identified by such term in the Proposal) of more than 10% must be approved by the Foundation in advance in writing. However, any increase or decrease to a total budget line of US$5,000 or less shall not require approval by the Foundation. 5. The Bank shall furnish to the Foundation current financial information relating to the Trust Fund in U.S. dollars via the World Bank s Trust Funds Donor Center secure website (the Donor Website ). The parties acknowledge that only financial information on the Donor Website constitutes an official report of the Bank. Within six (6) months after all commitments and liabilities with respect to the Trust Fund have been satisfied and the Trust Fund has been closed, the final financial information relating to the Trust Fund in U.S. dollars will be made available to the Foundation via the Donor Website. The Bank shall provide the Foundation annually, within six (6) months following the end of the Bank s fiscal year, a single audit report, comprising (a) a management assertion together with an attestation from the Bank s external auditors concerning the adequacy of internal control over cash-based financial reporting for all cash-based trust funds as a whole; and (b) a combined financial statement for all cash-based trust funds together with the Bank s external auditor s opinion thereon. The cost of the single audit shall be borne by the Bank. In addition, if the Foundation wishes to request, on an exceptional basis, a financial statement audit of the Grant Funds by the Bank s independent external auditors, the Foundation and the Bank shall first consult as to whether such an external audit is necessary. The Foundation and the Bank shall agree on the most appropriate scope, terms of reference of such external audit and the estimated costs of such audit, including the Bank s associated internal costs. Following agreement on the scope, terms of reference and costs, the Bank shall arrange for such audit. The Bank shall provide a copy of the auditors' report to the Foundation promptly following receipt of such report by the Bank. The costs of any such audit as agreed above by the Foundation shall be reimbursed by the Foundation. 6. Promptly following receipt of the countersigned Agreement, the Foundation will deposit the initial installment of the Grant Funds and each subsequent installment in respective amounts on the dates set forth below into the account designated in the written payment request to be sent by the Bank to the Foundation.

(b) In order to assist in the defrayment of the costs of administration and other expenses incurred administering the Trust Fund, the Bank may, following deposit of the Grant Funds, deduct from the Grant Funds and retain for its own account an amount up to five percent (5%) of the amount of the Grant Funds.

If the Grant Funds increase beyond what was originally expected at the time of countersignature of this Agreement, and the administrative costs increase as a result, an additional administrative fee may be applied to such new Grant Funds as agreed by Parties prior to any such increase in Grant Funds. 8. The employment and supervision of consultants engaged by the Bank and the procurement by the Bank of any goods financed by the Grant Funds shall be the responsibility solely of the Bank and shall be carried out in accordance with its applicable policies and procedures, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

The Foundation s contact for press releases is Amy Gallagher at (425) -452-5404 or agallagher@webershandwick.com. Any public disclosure of this Grant is prohibited prior to receipt by the Foundation of the countersigned Agreement. 11. The Bank shall be responsible only for performing those functions specifically set forth in this Agreement and shall not be subject to any other duties or responsibilities to the Foundation, including, without limitation, any duties or obligations that might otherwise apply to a fiduciary or trustee under general principles of trust or fiduciary law. The Grant Funds shall be administered in accordance with the Bank s applicable policies and procedures, as the same may be amended from time to time, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Grant Funds shall be administered in accordance with the Bank s framework to prevent and combat fraud and corruption and its screening procedures to prevent the use of Bank resources to finance terrorist activity, in line with the Bank's obligations to give

effect to the relevant decisions of the Security Council, taken under Chapter VII of the of Charter of the United Nations. The Foundation acknowledges that this provision does not create any obligations of the Bank under the anti-terrorist financing and asset control laws, regulations, rules and executive orders of

an individual country other than the U.S. that may apply to the Foundation. Nothing in this Agreement shall be considered a waiver of any privileges or immunities of IDA or IBRD under its respective Articles of Agreement or any applicable law, all of which are expressly reserved. 12. It is expected that the Grant Funds will be fully disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement by October 31, 2013. The Bank shall only disburse Grant Funds after that date with the prior approval of the Foundation. Either party may terminate this Agreement with three months prior notice in writing; provided, however, that in the event the Bank terminates this Agreement prior to the full expenditure of the Grant Funds, it shall be obligated to reimburse to the Foundation a pro rata portion of the administrative fee that has been previously deducted by the Bank pursuant to Section 7. Upon such termination, unless the parties hereto agree on another course of action, any agreement entered into by the Bank prior to termination to be funded by the Grant Funds shall not be affected by the termination, and the Bank shall be entitled to disburse the Grant Funds in respect of such agreements as if this Agreement had not been so terminated. 15. Within six (6) months after all commitments and liabilities under the Trust Fund have been satisfied and the Trust Fund has been closed, the Bank shall return any remaining or cancelled balance of the Grant Funds, as the case may be, to the Foundation or use the funds for such other purposes as are agreed between the Foundation and the Bank. 16. The Foundation may review or evaluate activities financed by the Trust Fund. The Foundation and the Bank shall agree on the scope and conduct of such review or evaluation, and the Bank shall provide all relevant information within the limits of its policies and procedures. All associated costs shall be borne by the Foundation. It is understood that any such review or evaluation will not constitute a financial, compliance or other audit of the Trust Fund. 17.
