Participating SRs:• Negotiated an agreement to share unique resources at each institution that are

unavailable at the other 2 Cancer Centers (CC)

• All institutions agreed to give CC members, no matter the institution, the same priority and rates as internal CC users

• Institutions agreed to reduce the IDC charged to users from the other 2 CC  Moores: from 45% to 16% (SOM Dean agreed to waive 29% academic

portion)Salk: from 95% to 16%SBMRI: from 35% to 16%

• CC agreed to cover IDC (16%) using developmental funds from their respective CCSGs (not part of formal agreement)

• All institutions agreed that standard services provided by the shared resources would not involve intellectual property

• C3 agreement has increased usage of the three cores by users at the other CCs during the first year
