DIR Contract No. DIR-CPO-4450
update to such linked documents shall only apply to purchases or leases of the

and inapplicable to the contract between DIR and Vendor or Vendor and Customer,
and Vendor will nonetheless be obligated to perform the contract without regard to
the prohibited documents, unless Customer elects instead to terminate the contract,
which in such case may be identified as a termination for cause against Vendor.
