Proposal Invitation No. 608-20 — Hiahwav Safetv and Traffic Control Products
*Please make sure that you have either downloaded and/or printed al/ sections of this Proposal Invitation.

2. General Information
3. Proposal Invitation Forms and Specifications
4. General Terms and Conditions
PROPOSAL SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
Proposal responses (including completed and signed Proposal Invitation forms, completed Proposal specifications, and
pricelists/catalogs) must be submitted in electronic format in the manner prescribed in the Instructions to Proposers.
INTENT AND PURPOSE OF THE CONTRACT
The intent of this Proposal Invitation is to establish a contract for the purchase of various types of Hiahwav Safetv and
Traffic Control Products that may be purchased by Cooperative members. Because individual members require
different equipment, supplies, and/or services this Proposal Invitation is a request for a discount off of catalog or price list
for supplies, materials and equipment, and a not -to -exceed hourly labor rate for installation, repair and other services as
set forth in the Proposal Specifications. Purchases can be made by a Cooperative member at any time during the contract
term.
TERM OF CONTRACT
The term of this contract will be from June 1, 2020 through May 31, 2021, with two (2) possible one (1) year renewals.
An awarded Vendor has no right to or vested interest in contract renewal. The Cooperative will evaluate the contract
award prior to the expiration of the then -current term on the basis of factors that may include the annual amount of
business, performance and continued provision of best value to Cooperative members.
For purposes of this Proposal Invitation, a Vendor must generate a minimum of $15,000 through the
contract during an annual contract term or may not be offered a renewal. A Vendor's failure to generate this
minimum amount may also be considered by the Cooperative as part of vendor's past performance evaluation on future
proposal invitations. A renewal must be mutually agreed upon by both parties.
VALUE OF CONTRACT
The estimated value of this contract is $9,541,308; however, this estimate is based on prior contracts for similar
types of products and services and should not be construed to be a guaranty of either minimum or maximum since usage
is dependent upon Cooperative members' actual needs and available funding.
An awarded Vendor must supply products and services at or below the awarded pricing for the duration of the contract
and honor all Purchase Orders prepared by each individual Cooperative member.
SERVICE FEE
An awarded Vendor under this Proposal Invitation must pay the Cooperative a service fee in the amount of 2% per
Purchase Order generated from any contract awarded under this Proposal Invitation, and the service fee is to be included

in the awarded pricing. Vendor agrees to pay this service fee and remit the fee to the Cooperative in Austin, Texas,
promptly upon payment by the Cooperative member for any Purchase Order(s) and within 30 days of the date of each
service fee invoice. Vendor agrees to provide the Cooperative with copies of all Purchase Orders generated from Vendor's
contract(s) that Vendor receives directly from Cooperative members, or such other documentation regarding those
purchase orders as the Cooperative's administrator may require in its reasonable discretion. Vendor further agrees that
the Cooperative shall have the right, upon reasonable written notice, to review its records pertaining to purchases under
any awarded contract to verify purchase history and the accuracy of service fees payable by Vendor.
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
Any information submitted by Proposer that Proposer considers to be confidential must be clearly identified as such on
the Confidential/Proprietary Information Form.
AWARD AND EVALUATION
This contract will be awarded based on the evaluation and award criteria set out in Section C.2 of the General Terms and
Conditions to provide best value to Cooperative members.
This Proposal Invitation requires Proposers to provide certain information that the Cooperative does not evaluate and is
not included in the award criteria set out in Section C.2. The Cooperative requests the information, however, because it
may be relevant to federal, state or local procurement law or other legal requirements that apply to various Cooperative
members. The information, which will be made available to Cooperative members with respect to awarded Vendors,
includes the following:
a) Proposer's status as a minority/woman-owned business enterprise, historically underutilized business, or
service -disabled veteran;
b) Whether Proposer or its ultimate parent or majority owner has its principal place of business in Texas or
employs at least 500 persons in Texas; and
c) Whether Proposer is a Texas resident or a non-resident business.
TYPE OF CONTRACT
This is a "sealed proposal" based on discount off catalog or price list and may contain a not -to -exceed hourly labor rate.
Except as provided in section EA of the General Terms and Conditions or otherwise in this Proposal Invitation, Vendor
shall hold its awarded pricing firm during the contract term. In the event of price decreases, such price decreases shall be
allowed for all products. Catalogs/pricelists, where required by the Proposal specifications, must be submitted with the
Proposal or your proposal will be deemed nonresponsive.
COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS
By signing this Proposal, the Proposer certifies that Proposer has provided its valid, proper and correct business entity
name and information in its Proposal, that such entity is operating in good standing with the proper authority from
whatever state or local jurisdiction is required, and Proposer has obtained, and will continue to maintain during the entire
term of this contract, all permits, approvals, and/or licenses necessary for lawful performance of its obligations under this
contract. Proposer further certifies that, if awarded, Proposer will comply with all applicable state, federal, and local laws,
rules, and regulations in regards to awarded products and/or services.
Individual Cooperative members may in certain circumstances request background checks on an awarded Vendor's
employees who will have direct contact with students, or for other reasons, and may require Vendor to pay the cost of
obtaining criminal history information.

BUYBOARD ADVISORY REGARDING CONSTRUCTION -RELATED GOODS AND SERVICES
The Cooperative issued the BuyBoard Procurement and Construction -Related Goods and Services Advisory for Texas
Members, which provides information specifically relevant to the procurement of construction -related goods and services
by Texas Cooperative members. The advisory is available at https://www.buyboard.com/Vendor/Resources.aspx.
Because many BuyBoard contracts include goods or installation services that might be considered construction -related,
Proposer must sign and submit the Construction Related -Goods and Services Affirmation form in the Proposal Invitation
forms regardless of type of goods or services associated with this Proposal Invitation.
PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING AND OTHER PROFESSIONAL SERVICES EXCLUDED
The scope of services in this Proposal Invitation and any resulting contract award do not include services that are
required to be procured under the Professional Services Procurement Act (Chapter 2254 of the Texas Government Code),
including without limitation architecture and professional engineering services.
DELIVERY RESPONSE
Unless otherwise noted in the Proposal (as a deviation) or the Purchase Order, routine delivery response to a Cooperative
member shall be within ten (10) business days after receipt of a Purchase Order, and delivery shall be made during the
ordering Cooperative member's normal business hours. Any Cooperative member may request emergency delivery.
Awarded Vendors shall use their best efforts to comply with rush or emergency requests. However, if the Vendor cannot
fulfill the emergency delivery requirements, the Cooperative member may procure the products or services from
alternative sources without penalty.
ADDITIONAL REOUIREMENTS FOR PURCHASES USING FEDERAL GRANT FUNDS (2 C.F.R. 200 Uniform
Guidance / EDGAR):
When a Cooperative member seeks to procure goods and services using funds under a federal grant or contract, specific
federal laws, regulations, and requirements may apply in addition to those under state law. This includes, but is not
limited to, the procurement standards of the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit
Requirements for Federal Awards, 2 C.F.R. 200 (sometimes referred to as the "Uniform Guidance" or new "EDGAR'). All
Vendors submitting proposals must complete the EDGAR Vendor Certification Form contained in the Proposal Invitation
forms regarding their willingness and ability to comply with certain requirements which may be applicable to specific
Cooperative member purchases using federal grant funds. This information will not be used for evaluation purposes but
will be made available to Cooperative members for their use while considering their purchasing options when using
federal grant funds. Cooperative members may also require Vendors to enter into ancillary agreements, in addition to the
BuyBoard contract's general terms and conditions, to address the member's specific contractual needs, including contract
requirements for a procurement using federal grants or contracts.

CONSTRUCTION -RELATED GOODS AND SERVICES AFFIRMATION
A contract awarded under this Proposal Invitation covers only the specific goods and services awarded by the BuyBoard. As
explained in the BuyBoard Procurement and Construction Related Goods and Services Advisory for Texas Members
("Advisory"), Texas law prohibits the procurement of architecture or engineering services through a
purchasing cooperative. This BuyBoard contract does not include such services. Architecture or engineering
services must be procured by a Cooperative member separately, in accordance with the Professional
Services Procurement Act (Chapter 2254 of the Texas Government Code) and other applicable law and local
policy.
The Advisory, available at buvboard.com/Vendor/Resources.asDx, provides an overview of certain legal requirements that
are potentially relevant to a Cooperative member's procurement of construction or construction -related goods and services,
including those for projects that may involve or require architecture, engineering or independent testing services. A copy
of the Advisory can also be provided upon request.
By signature below, the undersigned affirms that Proposer has obtained a copy of the Advisory, has read and understands
the Advisory, and is authorized by Proposer to make this affirmation. If Proposer sells construction -related goods or
services to a Cooperative member under a BuyBoard contract awarded under this Proposal Invitation, Proposer will comply
with the Advisory and applicable legal requirements, make a good faith effort to make its Cooperative member customers
or potential Cooperative member customers aware of such requirements, and provide a Cooperative member with a copy
of the Advisory before executing a Member Construction Contract with the member or accepting the member's purchase
order for construction -related goods or services, whichever comes first.

NATIONAL PURCHASING COOPERATIVE VENDOR AWARD AGREEMENT
In accordance with the Terms and Conditions associated with this Proposal Invitation, a contract awarded under this
Proposal Invitation may be "piggy -backed" by another governmental entity. The National Purchasing Cooperative is an
intergovernmental purchasing cooperative formed by certain school districts outside of Texas to serve its members
throughout the United States. If you agree to be considered for a piggy -back award by the National Purchasing
Cooperative, you agree to the following terms and agree to serve National Purchasing Cooperative members in the states
you have indicated on the State Service Designation form, in your Proposal.
By signing this form, Proposer (referred to in this Agreement as "Vendor") agrees as follows:
1. Vendor acknowledges that if The Local Government Purchasing Cooperative ("Texas Cooperative") awards Vendor a
contract under this Proposal Invitation ("Underlying Award', the National Purchasing Cooperative ("National Cooperative")
may - but is not required to - "piggy -back" on or re -award all or a portion of that Underlying Award ("Piggy -Back Award').
By signing this National Cooperative Vendor Award Agreement ("Agreement"), Vendor accepts and agrees to be bound by
any such Piggy -Back Award as provided for herein.
2. In the event National Cooperative awards Vendor a Piggy -Back Award, the National Cooperative Administrator
("BuyBoard Administrator') will notify Vendor in writing of such Piggy -Back Award, which award shall commence on the
effective date stated in the Notice and end on the expiration date of the Underlying Award, subject to annual renewals as
authorized in writing by the BuyBoard Administrator. Vendor agrees that no further signature or other action is required of
Vendor in order for the Piggy -Back Award and this Agreement to be binding upon Vendor. Vendor further agrees that no
interlineations or changes to this Agreement by Vendor will be binding on National Cooperative, unless such changes are
agreed to by its BuyBoard Administrator in writing.
3. Vendor agrees that it shall offer its goods and services to National Cooperative members at the same unit pricing and
same general terms and conditions, subject to applicable state laws in the state of purchase, as required by the Underlying
Award. However, nothing in this Agreement prevents Vendor from offering National Cooperative members better (i.e.,
lower) competitive pricing and more favorable terms and conditions than those in the Underlying Award.
4. Vendor hereby agrees and confirms that it will serve those states it has designated on the State Service Designation
Form of this Proposal Invitation. Any changes to the states designated on the State Service Designation Form must be
approved in writing by the BuyBoard Administrator.
5. Vendor agrees to pay National Cooperative the service fee provided for in the Underlying Award based on the amount of
purchases generated from National Cooperative members through the Piggy -Back Award. Vendor shall remit payment to
National Cooperative on such schedule as it specifies (which shall not be more often than monthly). Further, upon
request, Vendor shall provide National Cooperative with copies of all purchase orders generated from National Cooperative
members for purposes of reviewing and verifying purchase activity. Vendor further agrees that National Cooperative shall
have the right, upon reasonable written notice, to review Vendor's records pertaining to purchases made by National
Cooperative members in order to verify the accuracy of service fees.
6. Vendor agrees that the Underlying Award, including its General Terms and Conditions, are adopted by reference to the
fullest extent such provisions can reasonably apply to the post-proposal/contract award phase. The rights and
responsibilities that would ordinarily inure to the Texas Cooperative pursuant to the Underlying Award shall inure to
National Cooperative; and, conversely, the rights and responsibilities that would ordinarily inure to Vendor in the Underlying
Award shall inure to Vendor in this Agreement. Vendor recognizes and agrees that Vendor and National Cooperative are the
only parties to this Agreement, and that nothing in this Agreement has application to other third parties, including the
Texas Cooperative. In the event of conflict between this Agreement and the terms of the Underlying Award, the terms of
this Agreement shall control, and then only to the extent necessary to reconcile the conflict.

7. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Rhode Island and venue
for any dispute shall lie in the federal district court of Alexandria, Virginia.
8. Vendor acknowledges and agrees that the award of a Piggy -Back Award is within the sole discretion of National
Cooperative, and that this Agreement does not take effect unless and until National Cooperative awards Vendor a Piggy -
Back Award and the BuyBoard Administrator notifies Vendor in writing of such Piggy -Back Award as provided for herein.

When a Cooperative member seeks to procure goods and services using funds under a federal grant or contract, specific
federal laws, regulations, and requirements may apply in addition to those under state law. This includes, but is not limited
to, the procurement standards of the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for
Federal Awards, 2 CFR 200 (sometimes referred to as the "Uniform Guidance" or new "EDGAR'�. All Vendors submitting
proposals must complete this EDGAR Certification Form regarding Vendor's willingness and ability to comply with certain
requirements which may be applicable to specific Cooperative member purchases using federal grant funds. This
completed form will be made available to Cooperative members for their use while considering their purchasing options
when using federal grant funds. Cooperative members may also require Vendors to enter into ancillary agreements, in
addition to the BuyBoard contract's general terms and conditions, to address the member's specific contractual needs,
including contract requirements for a procurement using federal grants or contracts.
For each of the items below, Vendor should certify Vendor's agreement and ability to comply, where
applicable, by having Vendor's authorized representative complete and initial the applicable boxes and sign
the acknowledgment at the end of this form. If you fail to complete any item in this form, the Cooperative
will consider and may list the Vendor's response on the BuyBoard as "NO,"the Vendor is unable or unwilling
to comply. A "NO" response to any of the items may, if applicable, impact the ability of a Cooperative member to
purchase from the Vendor using federal funds.
1. Vendor Violation or Breach of Contract Terms:
Contracts for more than the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, which is the inflation adjusted amount determined by the
Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense Acquisition Regulations Council (Councils) as authorized by 41 USC
1908, must address administrative, contractual, or legal remedies in instances where contractors violate or breach contract
terms, and provide for such sanctions and penalties as appropriate.
Provisions regarding Vendor default are included in the BuyBoard General Terms and Conditions, including Section E.18,
Remedies for Default and Termination of Contract. Any Contract award will be subject to such BuyBoard General Terms
and Conditions, as well as any additional terms and conditions in any Purchase Order, Cooperative member ancillary
contract, or Member Construction Contract agreed upon by Vendor and the Cooperative member which must be consistent
with and protect the Cooperative member at least to the same extent as the BuyBoard Terms and Conditions.
The remedies under the Contract are in addition to any other remedies that may be available under law or in equity. By
submitting a Proposal, you agree to these Vendor violation and breach of contract terms.
2. Termination for Cause or Convenience:
For any Cooperative member purchase or contract in excess of $10,000 made using federal funds, you agree that the
following term and condition shall apply:
The Cooperative member may terminate or cancel any purchase order under this Contract at any time, with or without
cause, by providing seven (7) business days advance written notice to the Vendor. If this Agreement is terminated in
accordance with this Paragraph, the Cooperative member shall only be required to pay Vendor for goods or services
delivered to the Cooperative member prior to the termination and not otherwise returned in accordance with Vendor's
return policy. If the Cooperative member has paid Vendor for goods or services not yet provided as of the date of
termination, Vendor shall immediately refund such payment(s).
If an alternate provision for termination of a Cooperative member purchase for cause and convenience, including the
manner by which it will be effected and the basis for settlement, is included in the Cooperative member's purchase order,
ancillary agreement, or Member Construction Contract agreed to by the Vendor, the Cooperative member's provision shall
control.

3. Equal Employment Opportunity:
Except as otherwise provided under 41 CFR Part 60, all Cooperative member purchases or contracts that meet the
definition of "federally assisted construction contract" in 41 CFR Part 60-1.3 shall be deemed to include the equal
opportunity clause provided under 41 CFR 60-1.4(b), in accordance with Executive Order 11246, "Equal Employment
Opportunity" (30 FR 12319, 12935, 3 CFR Part, 1964-1965 Comp., p. 339), as amended by Executive Order 11375,
"Amending Executive Order 11246 Relating to Equal Employment Opportunity," and implementing regulations at 41 CFR
Part 60, "Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, Equal Employment Opportunity, Department of Labor."
The equal opportunity clause provided under 41 CFR 60-1.4(b) is hereby incorporated by reference. Vendor agrees that
such provision applies to any Cooperative member purchase or contract that meets the definition of "federally assisted
construction contract" in 41 CFR Part 60-1.3 and Vendor agrees that it shall comply with such provision.
4. Davis -Bacon Act:
When required by Federal program legislation, Vendor agrees that, for all Cooperative member prime construction
contracts/purchases in excess of $2,000, Vendor shall comply with the Davis -Bacon Act (40 USC 3141-3144, and 3146-
3148) as supplemented by Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 5, "Labor Standards Provisions Applicable to
Contracts Covering Federally Financed and Assisted Construction'. In accordance with the statute, Vendor is required to
pay wages to laborers and mechanics at a rate not less than the prevailing wages specified in a wage determinate made by
the Secretary of Labor. In addition, Vendor shall pay wages not less than once a week.
Current prevailing wage determinations issued by the Department of Labor are available at wdol.00v. Vendor agrees that,
for any purchase to which this requirement applies, the award of the purchase to the Vendor is conditioned upon Vendor's

Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 3, "Contractors and Subcontractors on Public Building or Public Work

Where applicable, for all Cooperative member contracts or purchases in excess of $100,000 that involve the employment of
mechanics or laborers, Vendor agrees to comply with 40 USC 3702 and 3704, as supplemented by Department of Labor
regulations (29 CFR Part 5). Under 40 USC 3702 of the Act, Vendor is required to compute the wages of every mechanic
and laborer on the basis of a standard work week of 40 hours. Work in excess of the standard work week is permissible
provided that the worker is compensated at a rate of not less than one and a half times the basic rate of pay for all hours
worked in excess of 40 hours in the work week. The requirements of 40 USC 3704 are applicable to construction work and
provide that no laborer or mechanic must be required to work in surroundings or under working conditions which are
unsanitary, hazardous or dangerous. These requirements do not apply to the purchases of supplies or materials or articles
ordinarily available on the open market, or contracts for transportation or transmission of intelligence.
6. Right to Inventions Made Under a Contract or Agreement:
If the Cooperative member's Federal award meets the definition of "funding agreement" under 37 CFR 401.2(a) and the
recipient or subrecipient wishes to enter into a contract with a small business firm or nonprofit organization regarding the
substitution of parties, assignment or performance or experimental, developmental, or research work under that "funding
agreement," the recipient or subrecipient must comply with the requirements of 37 CFR Part 401, "Rights to Inventions
Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative
Agreements," and any implementing regulations issued by the awarding agency.

or seeking to purchase from Vendor if Vendor is later listed on the government -wide exclusions in SAM, or is debarred,
suspended, or otherwise excluded by agencies or declared ineligible under statutory or regulatory authority other than
Executive Order 12549.
9. Byrd Anti -Lobbying Amendment:
Byrd Anti -Lobbying Amendment (31 USC 1352) -- Vendors that apply or bid for an award exceeding $100,000 must file the

of Congress, officer or employee of Congress, or an employee of a member of Congress in connection with obtaining any
Federal contract, grant or any other award covered by 31 USC 1352. Each tier must also disclose any lobbying with non -

Part 247 that contain the highest percentage of recovered materials practicable, consistent with maintaining a satisfactory
level of competition, where the purchase price of the item exceeds $10,000 or the value of the quantity acquired during the
preceding fiscal year exceeded $10,000; procuring solid waste management services in a manner that maximizes energy
and resource recovery, and establishing an affirmative procurement program for procurement of recovered materials
identified in the EPA guidelines.
11. Profit as a Separate Element of Price:
For purchases using federal funds in excess of the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, a Cooperative member may be required
to negotiate profit as a separate element of the price. See, 2 CFR 200.323(b). When required by a Cooperative member,
Vendor agrees to provide information and negotiate with the Cooperative member regarding profit as a separate element
of the price for a particular purchase. However, Vendor agrees that the total price, including profit, charged by Vendor to
the Cooperative member shall not exceed the awarded pricing, including any applicable discount, under Vendor's
Cooperative Contract.

B. Proposal Requirements
1. Specifications
Unless otherwise specified, the specifications are intended to be non-proprietary, and should be construed as such.
Catalog numbers, brand names, or manufacturer product or reference numbers used in the item specifications in this
Proposal Invitation are intended to be descriptive, not restrictive. These references, as well as "approved brands
and/or models" listed, are intended to identify and indicate the type of product being sought and establish the level of
quality desired. If any conflict exists in the item specifications between the product descriptions and any brand names
or model or reference numbers used, the product descriptions will override the brand names or model number
references.
In some cases, however, the Cooperative may find it advantageous in order to provide best value to Cooperative
members to standardize equipment and/or supplies by manufacturer in order to achieve efficiencies in procurement,
repair, and operation, to match existing stock, or to satisfy other requirements. In these limited cases, preference will
be given to the specific products identified as "approved brands and/or models," especially if all other evaluation
factors are deemed to be equal. For this reason, where specific brands or models are identified, Proposer is
encouraged to propose the exact item specified, in addition to an alternate brand or model with equal/equivalent
functionality or features where appropriate or necessary.
In all cases, Proposals must identify the manufacturer, brand, model, etc., of the item being offered. For Proposals on
"equal/equivalent" items other than the specified "approved brand and/or model," Proposer must supply a complete
description and sufficient data for the Cooperative to properly analyze the product being proposed, including its
functionality and features. In order to conduct such analysis, the Cooperative may request samples for items other
than "approved brands and/or models." If the specification identifies a specific brand or model for any item and
Proposer fails to identify the manufacturer, brand, model, etc., for that item, the Cooperative will assume
Proposer is proposing on the exact brand and model identified in the specification, and if awarded a
contract, Vendor must furnish the exact brand name, model, etc., as specified. Substitutions will not be

allowed after the contract is awarded, except as provided for in section E.8 (Substitutions) of these Terms and
Conditions.
The apparent silence of the specifications as to any detail, or the apparent omission from any specification of a
detailed description concerning any point, will be interpreted to mean that only the best commercial practices will
prevail, and the specification will be construed accordingly.
NOTE: Unless a different time period is stated in the General Information document of this Proposal Invitation, if
Proposer discovers or suspects an error in any item specification in this Proposal Invitation, including that the
specification is proprietary where not intended, Proposer must notify the BuyBoard Administrator of the error in
writing immediately, but in no event later than the tenth (loth) business day before the Proposal Due Date.
2. Pricing
A "Line Item" Proposal must be for a specific price for the unit of measure specified for that item. Proposer is
responsible for clearly noting any differences in proposed packaging and/or units of measure as a deviation in
accordance with section B.4 (Deviations from Item Specifications or General Terms and Conditions) of these Terms
and Conditions. If this Proposal Invitation requires "discount from catalog" pricing, Proposer must quote a single
discount percentage to be applied to all items in Proposer's published catalog. Proposer must submit the catalog or
published pricelist with the Proposal in electronic format. Catalogs and pricelists should contain only items that relate
to the items requested in the specifications. Vendors are discouraged from including irrelevant or non -responsive
information with their Proposal. The Cooperative reserves the right to deem a Proposal non -responsive if the catalogs
or pricelists submitted do not specifically relate to the intent of the Proposal Invitation or contain what the
Cooperative deems, in its sole discretion, excessive irrelevant or non -responsive information, including information
which makes it burdensome or impractical for the Cooperative to identify responsive products and pricing.
Proposer's pricing must be "equal to or better" than pricing Proposer offers other similar customers. Pricing that is not
considered equal or better could result in the Proposal being determined non-competitive and not considered for
award.
Unless specified otherwise in this Proposal Invitation:
a) A "cost plus" Proposal will not be accepted;
b) Proposer will not include freight, transportation and delivery charges or costs or sales tax in Proposal pricing
(freight, transportation and delivery charges, if applicable, are to be pre -paid by the awarded Vendor and,
subject to section E.5 (Packaging, Transportation, and Delivery) of these Terms and Conditions, included as a
separate item on the invoice to the ordering Cooperative member);
c) Proposal pricing must include the service fee due pursuant to section E.12 (Service Fee) of these Terms and
Conditions; and
d) Proposal pricing must be firm for acceptance and the Cooperative's period for acceptance will be at least 120
calendar days from the Proposal Due Date.
3. Quality
Unless otherwise indicated in this Proposal Invitation, proposed products must be new and in first class condition, and
must be warranted in the same manner and to the same extent as normally provided to other customers of Proposer.
Additionally, proposed products must conform to the highest standards of manufacturing practice, including, for all
tangible goods included in this Proposal Invitation, containers suitable for shipment and storage. Unless otherwise
specified, "factory seconds," "refurbished", or otherwise inferior items are not acceptable. All services must comply
with applicable industry standards.

4. Deviations from Item Specifications or General Terms and Conditions
Proposer must clearly note and explain in detail any and all limitations, exceptions, qualifications, special conditions,
or other deviations (collectively "deviations") from these Terms and Conditions or any of the item specifications in the
Proposal on the Deviation and Compliance form (or an attachment thereto) at the time the Proposal is submitted.
The submission of any such deviation may place Proposer at a competitive disadvantage or otherwise prevent the
Cooperative from considering the Proposal on the affected item(s).
The Cooperative may, in its sole discretion, seek clarification from and/or communicate with Proposer(s) regarding
any submitted deviation, consistent with general procurement principles of fair competition. The Cooperative reserves
the right to accept or reject a proposal based upon any submitted deviation.
Other than any deviation submitted in writing with the Proposal and accented by the Cooperative, the Cooperative
will hold Proposer accountable to the Cooperative and Cooperative members to perform in strict accordance with
these Terms and Conditions and the item specifications as written.
S. Addenda
Any interpretation, correction or change to this Proposal Invitation will be made by addendum, and updated
information contained in an addendum will prevail over the information contained in the original Proposal Invitation or
a previous addendum. The Cooperative is the sole authority for the issuance of any addendum, and any
communication related to this Proposal Invitation that is not from the Cooperative is invalid. Although the Cooperative
may provide electronic notification when an addendum has been issued and the changes will be flagged, it is
Proposer's responsibility to monitor the BuyBoard vendor website for possible addenda and incorporate any posted
addendum into the Proposal. Proposer must acknowledge each addendum in accordance with the instructions
accompanying the addendum.
6. Samples
The Cooperative may request a product sample. Proposer must furnish the requested sample at no cost to the
Cooperative, and, unless otherwise specified, the Cooperative must receive the sample within 72 hours of the
request. The submitted sample must be labeled with the Proposal Invitation name and number, item number, product
identification number, and Proposer's name. Proposer's failure to submit a sample when requested will result in the
product in question not being considered for award to Proposer.
The Cooperative will retain samples for a sufficient length of time for proper evaluation. If not destroyed or consumed
during examination or testing, the Cooperative will return samples to Proposer at Proposer's expense, provided that
Proposer has included a written return request with the submitted samples. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Cooperative may permanently retain samples submitted by awarded Proposers for the purpose of determining that
the quality and workmanship of awarded products delivered to Cooperative members is comparable to the samples.
The Cooperative is not liable for samples that are damaged, destroyed or consumed during examination or testing.
7. Proposal on All or Certain Items
Unless otherwise specified, Proposer may propose on any or all items. Proposer should answer all questions related to
each item on which Proposer wishes to propose, and either leave the questions for other items unanswered (blank) or
indicate "No Bid." The Cooperative will consider items individually and make awards on each item independently,
except for "related" items for which "compatibility" will be an element of consideration. In such cases, small groups of
items may be considered as a unit.
Vendor's Proposal shall specify the regions and/or states that Vendor proposes to serve by completing the appropriate
Proposal forms. Vendor shall specify only those regions or states for which Vendor is authorized either under
applicable law and/or by the manufacturer to sell the proposed products. If Vendor proposes multiple products, and
the regions or states which the Vendor is able to serve and proposes to serve differ by product, Vendor must specify
the specific regions or states by product in its Proposal. A Vendor may not select a region or state in its

Proposal where Vendor is unable or unauthorized to sell a proposed product. If it is determined that a
Vendor is unable, unauthorized, or refuses to provide any awarded product(s) or service(s) in a region
or state specified in Vendor's Proposal, such inability, lack of authorization, or refusal will be an event
of default and grounds for termination of the Contract.
S. "All or Nothing" Awards
Unless otherwise indicated in this Proposal Invitation, "all or nothing" Proposals are not acceptable and will be
rejected. Proposer must be willing to accept a partial award for any combination of the items or services proposed
and must be willing to share the business with any other successful Proposers.
9. Requirements of the Texas Public Information Act; Confidential Information
The requirements of Subchapter 3, Chapter 552, Texas Government Code", may apply to this Proposal
Invitation and any awarded Contract, and Vendor agrees that the Contract can be terminated if Vendor
knowingly or intentionally fails to comply with a requirement of that subchapter.
Pursuant to Texas Government Code Sections 552.371 and 552.372, to the extent the Contract or any Purchase
Order thereunder has a stated expenditure of at least $1 million in public funds for the purchase of goods or services
by a governmental body or results in the expenditure of at least $1 million in public funds for the purchase of goods
or services by a governmental body in a fiscal year of the governmental body, Vendor shall:
(a) preserve all contracting information, as defined in Texas Government Code Section 552.003(7) ("Contracting
Information"), related to the Contract or any Cooperative member Purchase Order thereunder as provided by
the records retention requirements applicable to the governing body for the duration of the Contract (including
any Purchase Order thereunder);
(b) promptly provide to the Cooperative or Cooperative member, as applicable, any Contracting Information
related to the Contract that is in the custody or possession of Vendor on request of the Cooperative or
Cooperative member; and
(c) on completion of the Contract (including any Purchase Order thereunder), either:
(i) provide at no cost to the Cooperative or Cooperative member, as applicable, all Contracting Information
related to the Contract (including any Purchase Order) that is in the custody or possession of Vendor; or
(ii) preserve the Contracting Information related to the Contract (including any Purchase Order thereunder)
as provided by the record retention requirements applicable to the Cooperative or Cooperative member, as
applicable.
The Cooperative may not accept a Proposal or award a Contract to a Vendor that the Cooperative has determined has
knowingly or intentionally failed to comply with Texas Government Code Chapter 552, Subchapter J, in a previous
Proposal or Contract unless the Cooperative determines and documents that Vendor has taken adequate steps to
ensure future compliance with the requirements of said Subchapter.
Proposer must clearly identify information in the Proposal that Proposer considers proprietary or
confidential by completing the Confidential/Proprietary Information form. The Cooperative will treat
such information as confidential only to the extent allowable under the Texas Public Information Act
(Chapter 552 of the Texas Government Code) or similar disclosure law.

If Proposer fails to properly identify the information, the Cooperative shall have no obligation to seek
protection of such information from public disclosure should a member of the public or other third
party request access to the information under the Texas Public Information Act or similar disclosure
laws. The Cooperative and its Administrator will not be responsible for Proposer's failure to clearly
identify information Proposer considers confidential or proprietary. Proposer will be notified of any
third party request for information that Proposer has identified in the Confidential/Proprietary
Information form as proprietary or confidential.
10. Certain Professional Services Excluded
Neither this Proposal Invitation nor any contract includes services that are required to be procured under the
Professional Services Procurement Act (Chapter 2254 of the Texas Government Code), including without limitation
architecture and professional engineering services.
11. Withdrawal or Modification of Proposal
Proposer may withdraw or modify a submitted Proposal prior to the Proposal Due Date and time specified in this
Proposal Invitation. A Proposal may be withdrawn only in strict accordance with this section.
Electronic Proposals Submissions: A Proposal submitted electronically through a website designated by the
Cooperative in the Proposal Invitation for submission of electronic proposals may be withdrawn or modified prior to
the Proposal Due Date and time through the same electronic proposal submission website. Vendor's login to the
electronic proposal submission website shall be used to verify Proposer's identity. Vendor shall be solely responsible
for ensuring only authorized use of its login, following all website instructions, and ensuring that the Proposal is
properly withdrawn or modified prior to the Proposal Due Date and time.
Hard Copy Submissions: If a Vendor submitted their Proposal in hard copy electronic format via mail or in person,
rather than electronic submission through the designated website, Proposer must submit a written request to the
Cooperative to withdraw the Proposal. The request to withdraw must be signed by an individual authorized to enter
into contracts on Proposer's behalf and indicate the individual's title. If the BuyBoard Administrator has any question
or doubt regarding Proposer's identity or the identity of its Proposal, withdrawal will not be allowed. If the
Cooperative decides to allow the withdrawal, Proposer's duly authorized representative will be required to complete
and sign a written receipt satisfactory to the BuyBoard Administrator before the proposal will be released. The
decision of the BuyBoard Administrator relating to matters concerning withdrawal of a Proposal is final.
Proposer may resubmit the withdrawn Proposal, or submit a new Proposal, up until the Proposal Due Date and time,
provided any new submission meets the requirements of this Proposal Invitation. If Proposer resubmits a Proposal
that was withdrawn and makes any change to any document in the proposal package, the change must be made in
accordance with the Cooperative's instructions for Proposal submissions, and Proposer will be deemed to have
authorized such change.
Proposals that are in the Cooperative's possession (including Proposals submitted through an
electronic proposal submission website designated by the Cooperative in the Proposal Invitation
instructions) at the Proposal Due Date time shall be deemed final, conclusive, and irrevocable; and no
Proposal will be subject to withdrawal, amendment, or correction by a Proposer after the Proposal Due
Date and time specified in this Proposal Invitation. However, pursuant to section 13.4 (Deviations from Item
Specifications or General Terms and Conditions), the Cooperative reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to seek
clarification, communicate and resolve issues around deviations that were submitted in a Proposal, consistent with
general procurement principles of fair competition.

9) Proposer will maintain, at Proposer's expense, any insurance, including without limitation such workers'
compensation insurance as may be required by state or local law or policy, necessary to protect the Cooperative
and its members from all claims for bodily injury, death, or property damage that might arise from the
performance by Proposer or its employees or its agents of any service under the Contract; however, the existence
of such insurance does not relieve Proposer of full responsibility and liability for damages, injury, death, or loss as
described or as otherwise provided for by law; and
10) Any false statement contained in the Proposal is a material breach of contract which will void the Proposal or any
resulting Contract, and subject Proposer to removal from all proposal lists, and possible criminal prosecution.
13. Proposal Signatures
Proposer must sign its Proposal in strict accordance with the Cooperative's instructions, including having an officer
duly authorized by Proposer execute the Proposal. By signing, the signatory warrants that he or she has read and

or imaged signature will be deemed an original.
14. No Reimbursement
Proposer understands and acknowledges the Cooperative will not reimburse or pay Proposer for any
expenses Proposer incurs in preparing its Proposal or providing additional information required in
connection with the Proposal.
C. Proposal Evaluation
1. General
A Proposal submitted in accordance with this Proposal Invitation will initially be considered for award; however, initial
consideration of a Proposal will not constitute an assessment of its meeting the necessary qualifications, and a
Proposal may be disqualified at any time during the evaluation process for failure to meet any other terms or
conditions contained anywhere else in this Proposal Invitation.
2. Best Value Criteria
The Cooperative evaluates Proposals on the basis of best value to Cooperative members. In evaluating Proposals and
determining best value for all Cooperative members, the Cooperative will consider the following criteria:
Best Value Criteria Maximum Points
1 Price Competiveness 60
2 Vendor Past Performance 15
3 Vendor Reputation for Goods and Services 15
4 Financial and Technical Resources 5
5 Capability of Servicing Cooperative Members 3
6 Any other relevant factor or requirement listed in this Proposal Invitation 2
TOTAL: 100
The Cooperative's evaluation will include Proposer's responses to the forms and other attachments included or
associated with this Proposal Invitation, including but not limited to Proposer's responses to the Proposal Invitation
Questionnaire. Only responsive Proposals will be evaluated. Failure to include all required information may result in a
Proposal being deemed non -responsive.
As a general matter, the Cooperative makes competitive and indefinite quantity awards to Proposers that give the
same or better discounts/pricing than they give their best governmental clients. Proposers should provide competitive
pricing that is the same or better than the pricing provided their best governmental clients. Each Proposal is

evaluated on its own merit and determined to be fair and reasonable by comparing the price/discounts that Vendor
offers other governmental clients.
If this Proposal Invitation requires discount pricing, discount practices may be examined and evaluated, in the
Cooperative's sole discretion, based on historical data, sales information, discounts granted to other governmental
clients, and/or other market research techniques. The Cooperative may award Contracts to multiple Proposers
supplying comparable products or services, also known as a multiple award schedule, or award the Contract to a
single Proposer. The Cooperative's decision to make multiple awards or a single award will be based upon the
Cooperative's sole discretion regarding the type of award that provides best value to all Cooperative members.
In regards to Vendor past performance, among other factors, the Cooperative may consider a Vendor's breach of
contractual obligation on any other active or prior Cooperative contract awarded to Vendor including, but not limited
to, nonpayment of service fees by Vendor, its parent company or affiliates and/or Vendor's failure to generate any
minimum amount specified in a prior -awarded Cooperative contract.
3. Cooperative Board Decision
The Cooperative reserves the right to waive any or all irregularities, formalities, or other technicalities and to be the
sole and independent judge of quality and suitability of any products or services offered. The Cooperative may accept
or reject a Proposal in its entirety, or may reject any part of a Proposal without affecting the remainder of that
proposal, and may award the individual items in this Proposal Invitation in any combination or in any way that
provides best value to Cooperative members based on the criteria set out in section C.2 (Best Value Criteria) of these
Terms and Conditions. The Cooperative may use all means at the collective disposal of the Cooperative and
Cooperative members to evaluate Proposals. The final decision as to the best overall offer, including as to price and
suitability of the proposed products or services to meet the needs of and provide best value to Cooperative members,
rests solely with the Cooperative's Board of Trustees.
The Board's decision may be protested only in accordance with the Board's protest procedure policy, COOP-851,
which is available from the BuyBoard Administrator upon request. Pursuant to COOP-851, a protest challenging the
terms, conditions or form of notice of this Proposal Invitation and accompanying documentation must be received by
the Cooperative no later than 5:00 p.m. CST the fifth (5th) business day before the Proposal opening date, and a
protest challenging an award decision, including proposal evaluations, no later than 5:00 p.m. CST the fifth (5th)
business day after the award is posted on the BuyBoard vendor website.
D. Contract Award
1. Notice of Award and Related Matters
A Proposal is an offer by Proposer to contract with the Cooperative and Cooperative members in accordance with this
Proposal Invitation, including without limitation the item specifications, and these Terms and Conditions. A Proposal
does not become a Contract unless and until the Proposal is accepted by the Cooperative through the issuance of a
written Notice of Award to the successful Proposer, whereupon the Contract becomes binding and enforceable. The
Contract is then utilized by a Cooperative member by the member issuing a signed purchase order for the awarded
products or services. Vendor must honor all purchase orders issued by Cooperative members during the Contract
term in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. The Cooperative may maintain Vendor's contract documents in
electronic format for the duration of the Contract term.
The Cooperative reserves the right to allow awarded Vendors to add additional service regions, at the awarded
pricing, to the Vendor's Contract during the Contract term.
As provided for in detail in section E.11 (The BuyBoard) of these Terms and Conditions, all Purchase Orders must be
processed through the BuyBoard. All deliveries and financial transactions related to the Purchase Order will occur
directly between Vendor and the ordering Cooperative member.

Cooperative members and Vendors do not have the authority to modify these Terms and Conditions. By submitting a
Proposal, Vendor specifically agrees that these Terms and Conditions shall apply and that it shall not seek to impose
on a Cooperative member additional terms and conditions or ancillary agreements that are inconsistent with, or
intended to supersede, these Terms and Conditions. Any attempt by a Vendor to impose terms and conditions on a
Cooperative member that are inconsistent with or intended to supersede these Terms and Conditions which were not
submitted by Vendor as a deviation with its Proposal and approved by the Cooperative shall be an event of default
under the Contract and grounds for termination of Vendor's Contract. However, a Cooperative member may add
terms to a Purchase Order that are consistent with these Terms and Conditions and are acceptable to Vendor,
including negotiating a supplemental or ancillary agreement with Vendor containing additional terms and conditions
for a specific purchase or purchases that are consistent with these Terms and Conditions. A Cooperative member may
require a performance and/or payment bond from Vendor as may be required by law or deemed necessary or
appropriate. Additionally, a Cooperative member may require Vendor to carry and provide proof of such insurance as
may be required by state or local law or policy. Individual Cooperative members may in certain circumstances require
background checks on Vendor employees who will have direct contact with students or staff, or for other reasons,
and may require Vendor to pay the cost of obtaining criminal history record information. To the extent of any conflict
between these Terms and Conditions and requirements contained in any Cooperative member Purchase Order or
supplemental/ancillary agreement, the stricter requirements on the Vendor shall apply. In the event of differing but
equally stringent requirements, the Cooperative member Purchase Order or negotiated additional terms and
conditions shall govern over the requirements in the Proposal Invitation.
2. Piggyback Contract and Other Entity Clause
It is the Cooperative's intent that other governmental entities throughout the United States, as well as
administrator's nonprofit entity BuyBoard subscribers, have the opportunity to purchase the goods or
services awarded under the Contract at the same pricing and according to these Terms and Conditions,
subject to applicable state law, through a piggy -back award or similar agreement. To the extent
applicable, Vendor must offer and sell the awarded goods and services to such other organizations and
entities in accordance with Vendor's Proposal, including without limitation the State Service
Designation form and the National Purchasing Cooperative Vendor Award Agreement.
E. Contract Performance
1. Contract Term
The term of the Contract is for the initial term stated in this Proposal Invitation, which term begins on the date
specified in the Notice of Award. Unless otherwise stated in this Proposal Invitation, the Contract may be renewed for
two (2) additional one (I) -year terms as provided for in this section E.1. A reference to "Contract term" in these
Terms and Conditions means the initial term and any renewal term.
The Contract shall govern the Vendor's and the Cooperative member's rights and obligations with respect to any
Purchase Order issued during the Contract term and afterwards, with respect to any Purchase Order or purchase
bound by the Cooperative member for specified goods or services before the Contract award period ended.
Vendor has no right to or vested interest in a Contract renewal. The Cooperative will evaluate the Contract award
prior to the expiration of the then current Contract term (initial or renewal), and reserves the right to not renew the
Contract based on factors that may include, but are not limited to, the annual amount of business, Vendor's
performance (including, but not limited to, compliance with the Terms and Conditions), and the continued provision
of best value to Cooperative members. With respect to annual amount of business, Vendor must generate the
minimum amount specified in the General Information document associated with this Proposal Invitation through the
Contract, during both the initial and the first renewal term, or may not be offered a second renewal term. A vendor
failure to generate this minimum amount may also be considered by the Cooperative as part of vendor's past
performance evaluation on future proposal invitations. A renewal must be agreed to by the Cooperative and Vendor.

In the event the Contract term will expire before the Cooperative awards a successor contract for the categories of
awarded products or services, the Contract may be extended beyond the expiration date on a month to month basis,
or such other term as determined by the Cooperative, upon the agreement of the Cooperative and Vendor, provided
that the awarded pricing does not increase during such extension.
2. Prevailing Wages, Bonding and Insurance Requirements
Vendor must comply with any applicable prevailing wage rate requirements under the federal Davis -Bacon or state or
local law, including Chapter 2258 of the Texas Government Code.
Vendor must provide any applicable performance and payment bonds as required by law, including Chapter 2253 of
the Texas Government Code, or as requested by a Cooperative member. Vendor must maintain appropriate and
sufficient insurance, including without limitation such workers' compensation insurance as may be required by state
or local law or policy, necessary to protect Vendor and the Cooperative and its members from all claims for bodily
injury, death, or property damage that might arise from the performance by Vendor or its employees or agents of any
service under the Contract; however, the existence of such insurance does not relieve Vendor of full responsibility and
liability for damages, injury, death, or loss as described or as otherwise provided by law.
3. Conformity to Item Specifications and Contract Award
Vendor warrants that the products or services Vendor provides under the Contract conform to the item specifications
and other requirements of this Proposal Invitation (except to the extent and as specifically noted as deviations in
Vendor's Proposal), and are free from all defects in material, workmanship and title. If Vendor deviates from an item
specification, including delivering a product other than the specific brand and model of the product awarded, the
ordering Cooperative member may reject the product when delivered and terminate the purchase order, at no cost or
penalty to the member. Vendor further warrants that all products and services provided under the Contract meet all
applicable legal standards and requirements, including OSHA standards and regulations, and that any electrical items
bear the appropriate listing from US, FMRC, NEMA, or UL Laboratories.
If awarded products include chemicals or other products that customarily require Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS),
Vendor must include the MSDS with the first shipment of the product to a Cooperative member during the Contract
term. Vendor must provide additional MSDSs to Cooperative members upon request, promptly and at no additional
cost.
4. Awarded Pricing
Awarded pricing may include line item pricing, discount off catalog or pricelist, not -to -exceed hourly labor rates, or
other pricing structure as set forth in the Proposal Invitation. Except as provided in this section EA or otherwise in
this Proposal Invitation, Vendor shall hold its awarded pricing firm during the Contract term.
For awards based on discount off catalog or pricelist, Vendor may submit updated pricelists or catalogs reflecting
manufacturer or similar market -wide price increases that occur during the Contract term to the Cooperative, and shall
provide upon request such supporting documentation, including manufacturer documentation, as the Cooperative
may require. Such pricelists or catalogs must be provided in the same format required by the Proposal Invitation for
catalogs and pricelists submitted with Proposals. All pricelist or catalog changes must be supported by manufacturer
price changes or similar market changes. The Cooperative reserves the right to reject any or all catalog or pricelist
price changes as it deems to be in the best interest of and to provide best value to Cooperative members. Unless
otherwise provided in the Proposal Invitation, no catalog or pricelist price increases, including website-based catalogs
or pricelists, will be permitted or accepted within 180 days of Vendor's Proposal submission or within 180 days of
submission of a prior revised catalog or pricelist. Updated pricelists or catalogs must be limited to awarded products
or the pricelist or catalog may be rejected by the Cooperative in its entirety. Vendor must provide the Cooperative
with prior notice of catalog and pricelist changes. Until such time as updated pricelists have been submitted to the
Cooperative, or in the event the Cooperative rejects or determines further information is required before accepting a

revised catalog or pricelist, Vendor shall be required to continue to apply the prior catalog or pricelist pricing, with
applicable discount, to Cooperative members.
For awarded pricing based on hourly labor rates, Vendor may not exceed the awarded pricing during the Contract
term unless changes to prevailing wage rates under state, local, or federal law applicable to the work to be performed
require higher rates. In such event, the Vendor must notify the Cooperative and provide documentation supporting
the required labor rate increase.
All awarded discounts must remain firm during the Contract term.
In the event Vendor decreases the price of awarded products or services for any or all of its other customers in
similar market circumstances below the Contract price, Vendor must offer such decreased pricing to Cooperative
members.
During the Contract term, Cooperative members may negotiate with Vendor, through the BuyBoard request for
quotes (RFQ) function or otherwise, to obtain lower prices for awarded products or services based on volume or other
factors.
If it is determined that a Vendor has sold products or services to Cooperative members through the Contract at a
price higher than the applicable awarded pricing, Vendor shall be in default of its Contract and subject to termination.
Unless specified otherwise in this Proposal Invitation, the service fee due pursuant to section E.12 (Service Fee) of
these Terms and Conditions is included in the awarded pricing.
S. Packaging, Transportation, and Delivery
Unless otherwise provided for in this Proposal Invitation, all tangible goods included in this Proposal Invitation must
be packaged in containers that are new, appropriately designed for the product, and sturdy enough to protect the
product during loading, transit, unloading, and storage, and be suitably packed to secure the lowest transportation
costs. Products for which palletizing is appropriate must be delivered on standard 48" 4-way pallets in good,
serviceable condition.
Vendor is responsible for paying all freight, delivery, handling and other charges incurred in transporting and
delivering products to a Cooperative member, and for the risk of loss until the product is delivered to and accepted by
the Cooperative member. Freight, delivery, handling and other charges incurred in transporting and delivering
products to a Cooperative member are to be prepaid by Vendor. Vendor may collect the actual amount of such
charges after delivery and acceptance, provided that the charges (a) were disclosed to the Cooperative member, if
requested, and in all instances in which the charges exceed ten percent (10%) of the total cost of the order, prior to
shipment; (b) are itemized and shown separately on the member's invoice; and (c) are supported by appropriate
documentation submitted with the invoice.
Except for items that have hidden defects or that do not meet specifications, title and risk of loss to products pass to
a Cooperative member upon the member's actual receipt and acceptance of the product at the point and time of
delivery. Unless otherwise noted in the proposal (as a deviation) or the Purchase Order, Vendor must deliver or
provide awarded products or services within ten (10) business days after receipt of a Cooperative member's purchase
order. Vendor must immediately notify the Cooperative member's primary contact of any anticipated or actual delay
and document the notice in writing, and the member may extend the delivery time or cancel the order if the delay is
unacceptable. If the Cooperative member has not received notice of the delay as required by this section, the
member may, at its discretion, return to Vendor any items received after the due date, at Vendor's expense and
without liability or penalty to the member. When the needs of a Cooperative member require immediate response,
the right to pick up tangible goods, if part of this Proposal Invitation, on an 'over the counter" basis must be available
for the majority of the awarded tangible goods. In these circumstances, the Cooperative member's personnel may

pick up the products at Vendor's warehouse location. Additionally, a Cooperative member may request emergency
delivery, and Vendor must use its best efforts to comply with rush or emergency requests. If Vendor cannot fulfill the
emergency delivery requirement, the member may procure the products or services from alternative sources without
penalty. Time is of the essence in Vendor's performance of the Contract.
6. Packing Lists, Invoices and Payments
(a) Packing Lists, Invoices
Packing lists or other suitable shipping documents must accompany each shipment of tangible goods included in
this Proposal Invitation and state: (a) Vendor's name and address; (b) Cooperative member's name and address
or delivery location; (c) Cooperative member's Purchase Order number; (d) descriptive information identifying
the item(s) delivered, including quantity, item number, product code, item description, and total number of
containers; and (e) copies of all product warranties for the item(s) delivered. Vendor must submit separate
invoices, in duplicate, on each purchase order after each delivery. Invoices must (a) contain the information
stated above; (b) separately itemize any transportation and delivery charges, and include associated
documentation; (c) include a properly signed copy of the delivery receipt; and (d) be mailed directly to the
ordering Cooperative member. Unless specified otherwise in this Proposal Invitation, the service fee due
pursuant to section E.12 (Service Fee) of these Terms and Conditions is included in the awarded pricing and
must not be separately itemized in the invoice.
(b) Payments
Payment by the Cooperative member is due after a Cooperative member's receipt and acceptance of ordered
products or services and the documentation identified above, including a complete and correct invoice, in
accordance with the Prompt Payment Act (Chapter 2251 of the Texas Government Code). A Cooperative
member is not responsible for products delivered or invoiced without a valid purchase order number.
A Cooperative member's obligation to Vendor is payable only and solely from funds available for
the purpose of the purchase. Lack of funds will render a member's purchase order null and void to
the extent funds are not available and any delivered but unpaid product will be returned to Vendor.
Neither the Cooperative nor TASB is liable or responsible for any payment owed Vendor by a
Cooperative member under the Contract.
7. Product Inspection, Testing, and Defective Items
Products supplied under the Contract must be delivered in the best possible condition, be covered by the product
warranties provided by Vendor and/or the product manufacturer to other customers, and are subject to inspection,
testing, and approval by the Cooperative or a Cooperative member. Tests may be performed on samples taken from
any regular shipment of the product. In the event a tested product fails to meet or exceed all requirements of the
item specifications or these Terms and Conditions, Vendor must pay the cost of the samples and/or the testing. Upon
receipt of notification from the Cooperative or Cooperative member, Vendor must replace and, for tangible goods,
pick up the defective product within five (5) business days or on the next service date, whichever is sooner, without
charge for the replacement or delivery. Additionally, the Cooperative or member may dispose of defective products
that are not picked up and replaced by Vendor, without cost. Products damaged in shipment are considered defective
for purposes of the foregoing. Latent defects discovered after delivery and acceptance of any products may result in
revocation of the acceptance of such products. The Cooperative or Cooperative member must have access to
Vendor's place of business during normal business hours for the purpose of inspecting any awarded product.
8. Substitutions
Vendor's Proposal must specify the products or services Vendor proposes to provide under each category of the
Proposal Invitation specifications. Vendor shall only be permitted to provide those products or services specified for
categories under which Vendor is awarded under the Contract. Except as provided in this section E.8, the Cooperative

12007 Research Boulevard • Austin, Texas 78759-2439 • PH: 800-695-2919 • FAX: 800-211-5454 • buvboard.com
will not accept additions or substitutions to any of the product(s) listed in the Proposal after a Notice of Award has
been issued.
If an awarded product or catalog of products is discontinued by the manufacturer and the same manufacturer offers
an equivalent replacement product, or if a catalog of products is updated by the manufacturer with products within
the same Proposal Invitation specifications and category(ies) for which Vendor was awarded, Vendor may substitute
the replacement product or updated catalog for the awarded product or catalog. Vendor shall submit all reasonable
supporting documentation requested by the Cooperative's Administrator regarding any substitutions or catalog
updates. The Cooperative reserves the right to reject, in its sole discretion, any product or catalog substitution.
9. Product and Service Guarantees and Warranties
Vendor must not limit or exclude any implied warranties and shall extend such warranties on the awarded product, as
well as the installation thereof if such installation is provided by Vendor, as are normally provided to other customers
of Vendor. All services shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner consistent with industry standards.
Unless a deviation is submitted by the Vendor with its proposal and accepted by the Cooperative pursuant to section
B.4 (Deviations from Item Specifications or General Terms and Conditions) of these Terms and Conditions or unless a
different warranty is required by a Cooperative member Purchase Order or supplemental contract, a minimum of a
ninety (90)-day product or service guaranty or the manufacturer's standard commercial warranty, whichever is
greater, will apply to all awarded products and services. At a minimum, all product warranties must provide for
replacement of defective merchandise, parts, and labor, and include pick-up of the defective merchandise from the
location specified by the Cooperative member and delivery of the replacement(s) to the same location. In addition,
such warranty shall include curing any defects in connection with any Vendor installation of the product at no
additional cost to the member. The warranty period is effective from the date the Cooperative member accepts the
product or the date the service is completed and accepted by the Cooperative member.
Vendor shall respond to any reasonable requests for information from the Cooperative, its administrator, or a
Cooperative member in regard to concerns regarding public health or safety regarding awarded products, including
such documentation as may be reasonably requested. In the event of any product recalls affecting awarded products,
as soon as practicable, Vendor shall notify in writing both the Cooperative and any Cooperative members who made
purchases from Vendor for such recalled products of the recall and proposed action. At a minimum and without
waiving any other requirements under law or Cooperative member purchase order, Vendor shall be required with
respect to purchasing Cooperative members to take all action required by law or any greater remedy as may be
offered by Vendor to other customers with respect to recalled products, including but not limited to, prompt
replacement and/or refunds.
10. Multiple Distribution Centers, Single Point of Contact, and Designated Dealers
If tangible goods are included as part of Vendor's Proposal and Vendor delivers products out of more than one
warehouse or distribution center, all warehouses or distribution centers involved in the distribution plan must carry or
have timely access to all awarded items and must be able to respond to orders in a timely manner. Unless otherwise
specified in this Proposal Invitation, product substitutions are not allowed, and the involvement of multiple
distribution centers does not alter the restriction against product substitution.
The Cooperative and Cooperative members will have one Vendor contact person for overall contract management
relative to the Contract, even if Vendor uses multiple distribution centers or designated dealers, and the Cooperative
and its members will not be required to deal with multiple Vendor contacts for overall contract management.
If Vendor is a manufacturer that sells products through a dealer network, Vendor may request to designate a dealer
or multiple dealers ("Designated Dealer" or "Designated Dealers") to receive Cooperative member Purchase Orders on
Vendor's behalf by completing and submitting to the Cooperative's administrator the information required on the
Manufacturer Dealer Designation form contained in the Proposal Invitation, and/or such other form or information as
the Cooperative's administrator may reasonably require.

12007 Research Boulevard • Austin, Texas 78759-2439 • PH: 800-695-2919 • FAX: 800-211-5454 • buvboard.com
Regardless of any Designated Dealers submitted by Vendor, Vendor specifically agrees and acknowledges that any
such designations are for Vendor's convenience only and shall not relieve Vendor of any obligations under the
Contract, including payment of Cooperative service fees on all Purchase Orders submitted to Vendor or any
Designated Dealer. Vendor shall remain responsible and liable for all of its obligations under the Contract and the
performance of both Vendor and any of Vendor's Designated Dealers under and in accordance with the Contract and
remain subject to all remedies for default thereunder, including, but not limited to suspension and termination of
Vendor's Contract for nonpayment of service fees.
Further, Vendor acknowledges and agrees that, if Vendor opts to submit Designated Dealers under the Contract,
Vendor is responsible for ensuring the accuracy of, maintaining, and updating the Designated Dealer information
provided to the Cooperative and ensuring and confirming such information has been received by the Cooperative's
administrator in such form as the Cooperative's administrator may reasonably require. Vendor authorizes the
Cooperative, in its sole discretion, to list any Vendor Designated Dealers in the BuyBoard system and to receive
Purchase Orders directly from Cooperative members on behalf of Vendor. To the extent a Vendor with Designated
Dealers receives a Purchase Order directly, it shall be the responsibility of Vendor to appropriately process such
Purchase Order in accordance with the Contract, including but not limited to timely forwarding such Purchase Order
to a Designated Dealer for processing.
The Cooperative reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse addition of, or request removal of, any Designated
Dealer, and Vendor agrees to immediately require such Designated Dealer to cease accepting Purchase Orders or
otherwise acting on Vendor's behalf under the Contract. Further, the Cooperative's administrator shall be authorized
to remove or suspend any or all Designated Dealers from the BuyBoard at any time in its sole discretion.
11. The BuyBoard
The awarded Contract will be posted on the BuyBoard website as an online electronic catalog(s). Except as
expressly authorized in writing by the Cooperative's administrator, neither Vendor nor any Vendor
Designated Dealer is authorized to process a Purchase Order received directly from a Cooperative
member, and a Cooperative member that wishes to procure goods or services under the Contract will initiate a
Purchase Order through the BuyBoard, which will be transmitted to Vendor or Vendor's Designated Dealer(s). All
Purchase Orders generated by or under the contract must be processed through the BuyBoard. To the extent that a
Vendor or a Vendor Designated Dealer erroneously processes a Purchase Order received directly from a Cooperative
member without express written authorization from the Cooperative's administrator, such actions may be considered
in breach of Vendor's obligations under the Contract but shall not alter the nature of the transaction as a BuyBoard
purchase or relieve Vendor of the obligation to pay the service fee on such purchase, the intent of the Cooperative
member to purchase through the Cooperative contract being paramount. Vendor and any Vendor Designated Dealer
must maintain the computer and telephone hardware necessary to provide for the electronic receipt of Purchase
Orders, and pay such costs and fees as may be imposed by a supplier or service provider for the software, equipment
and service required to use the BuyBoard. To the extent that a Vendor is authorized in writing by the Cooperative
administrator to process a Purchase Order received directly from a Cooperative member, Vendor shall be required to
comply with all conditions imposed by the Cooperative as a part of such authorization.
12. Service Fee
Vendor must pay the Cooperative the service fee specified in this Proposal Invitation and, unless this Proposal
Invitation provides otherwise, the service fee is included in the awarded pricing. Except as otherwise provided in this
section E.12, Vendor must remit the service fee to the Cooperative in Austin, Texas, within 30 days of the date of
each service fee invoice.
Service fees shall be deemed incurred on the date of Vendor's receipt of payment for products or services by the
Cooperative member. To the extent that a Vendor disputes any service fee listed in an invoice, including but not
limited to assertions that the purchase on which the fee is based has yet to be delivered or paid (e.g. special orders),
was canceled by the Cooperative member, or is a duplicate purchase order, the Vendor must notify the Cooperative

of the dispute in writing no later than the 90th day after the original invoice date (Dispute Period) by returning
a copy of the invoice or statement of outstanding balances to the Cooperative with each disputed item marked and
the basis for dispute provided. To the extent that the disputed service fees have been paid by Vendor, any request
for a refund must be provided to the Cooperative in writing, with supporting documentation, no later than the last
day of the Dispute Period. Vendor agrees to cooperate, and require any Vendor Designated Dealer(s) and billing
agent to cooperate, with the Cooperative in attempting to reconcile and resolve disputed fees, and shall provide such
reasonable information and documentation as the Cooperative may require to review the disputed fees to the
satisfaction of the Cooperative administrator's staff. Any service fees for which the Cooperative has not received a
notice of dispute or request for refund within the Dispute Period as set forth herein shall be deemed conclusively due
and owing and no longer subject to dispute or claim for refund.
Unpaid service fees will be subject to collection in accordance with the Cooperative's Board Policy, COOP-852, Vendor
Invoicing and Collections.
A Vendor may designate a billing agent to receive Cooperative service fee invoices on Vendor's behalf. Such
designation must be made in writing by an authorized representative of Vendor and properly submitted to the
Cooperative's administrator in such form as the Cooperative's administrator may reasonably require. However, in so
doing, Vendor acknowledges and agrees that such designation shall be for Vendor's convenience only and Vendor
shall remain responsible for all obligations under the Contract, including payment of service fees, and shall remain
subject to all remedies for default in payment thereof.
Vendor agrees to provide the Cooperative with copies of all Purchase Orders generated by or under the Contract that
are received directly from Cooperative members, or such other documentation regarding those Purchase Orders as
the Cooperative's administrator may require in its reasonable discretion. Additionally, the Cooperative has the right,
upon reasonable written notice, to review Vendor's records pertaining to purchases under the Contract with
Cooperative members to verify purchase history and the accuracy of service fees payable from Vendor.
13. Disclaimer of Warranty and Limitation of Liability
THE COOPERATIVE AND TASB (BOTH D/B/A BUYBOARD) DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, IN REGARD TO THE AVAILABILITY, ACCURACY, CONTENT OR ANY OTHER ASPECT OF ANY
INFORMATION, PRODUCT, OR SERVICE FURNISHED UNDER THE CONTRACT AWARD, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, ANY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THE CONTRACT,
NEITHER THE COOPERATIVE NOR TASB, NOR THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, BOARD MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES OR
AGENTS, IS LIABLE TO VENDOR UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES FOR LOST REVENUE, DATA OR PROFITS, OR FOR
ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, EVEN IF THE COOPERATIVE
AND/OR TASB HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. WITHOUT WAIVING ANY
GOVERNMENTAL IMMUNITY PROVIDED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE COOPERATIVE AND/OR TASB'S TOTAL
JOINT LIABILIY TO VENDOR EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF THE SERVICE FEE PAID BY VENDOR DURING THE TWELVE
MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO SUCH LIABILITY.
Neither the Cooperative nor TASB is in any way liable to Vendor for a Cooperative member's performance or
nonperformance of the member's obligations under the Contract or Purchase Order.
14. Sales Tax
Cooperative members are governmental entities which are generally exempt by law from the payment of state sales
tax and federal excise tax. Vendor may request a Cooperative member to provide a tax exemption certificate, or the
member may establish its tax exempt status by including tax exemption information or tax exemption certificate with
the Purchase Order as authorized under law. Vendor is responsible for collecting such taxes, if any, as may be due
from a Cooperative member and remitting payment to the appropriate taxing authority.

15. Use of Logo and Trade Name
The BuyBoard trade name and logo are proprietary to TASB and have been specifically licensed by TASB to the
Cooperative. Vendor may not use, display, or otherwise distribute the BuyBoard logo or trade name except in strict
accordance with the Cooperative's written guidelines posted on the BuyBoard website.
16. Indemnification
Vendor agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Cooperative, TASB and Cooperative members, and their
officers, board members, agents and employees, from and against all third -party claims, actions, suits, liability, liens,
loss and damage of any character, type, or description, including without limitation all expenses of litigation, court
costs and attorney's fees, arising out of or related to (a) injury or death to any person or damage to any property
related to the acts of Vendor or its agents, subcontractors, or employees in the execution of or performance under
the Contract or a Purchase Order, as applicable; and (b) Vendor's negligence, misconduct, breach of contract or other
failure to comply with its obligations in the execution or performance under the Contract or a Purchase Order, as
applicable.
17. Intellectual Property Infringement
Without limiting the scope of section E.16 (Indemnification) of these Terms and Condition, if any claim is asserted, or
action or proceeding brought against the Cooperative or a Cooperative member that alleges that all or any part of the
products or services supplied by Vendor, in the form supplied or modified by Vendor, or its subcontractors pursuant
to Vendor's sole directions, infringes or misappropriates any United States intellectual property, intangible asset, or
other proprietary right, title or interest (including, without limitation, any copyright or patent or any trade secret right,
title, or interest), or violates any other contract, license, grant, or other proprietary right of any third party, the
Cooperative, upon its awareness, shall give Vendor prompt written notice thereof. Vendor shall defend, and hold the
Cooperative and the Cooperative member harmless, against any such claim or action and shall indemnify the
Cooperative and Cooperative member against any liability, damages and costs resulting from such claim. In addition,
if, in any such suit arising from such claim, the continued use of the product for the purpose intended is enjoined by any
court of competent jurisdiction, Vendor shall, at its expense and option, either (a) procure for the Cooperative member
the right to continue using the product; (b) modify the product so that it becomes non -infringing; (c) replace the product
or portions thereof so that it becomes non -infringing; or (d) allow the Cooperative member to return the product or
cancel the service and refund the purchase price (less reasonable depreciation for use, if applicable.)
18. Remedies for Default and Termination of Contract
(a) Default and Termination of Cooperative Contract
Except as otherwise provided for in these Terms and Conditions, either party (Cooperative or Vendor) may
terminate the Contract in whole or in part in the event of the other party's substantial failure to fulfill its
obligations under the Contract through no fault of the terminating party; provided, however, that the defaulting
party is given at least ten (10) business days prior written notice of the default and intent to terminate (delivered
by certified mail, return receipt requested, or other method that similarly documents receipt), and, to the extent
the default is capable of being cured, a ten (10) business day opportunity to remedy the default to the
satisfaction of the terminating party (or, in the event of default based on Vendor's failure to timely remit the
service fee due the Cooperative, such longer cure period as may be established by Cooperative policy.)
At the Cooperative's option and in addition to any other remedies it may have available, the Cooperative may
terminate the Contract if Vendor fails to adhere to or violates any of the provisions of these Terms and
Conditions, including the certifications. Without limiting the scope of the foregoing, one or more of the following
constitute grounds for termination:
i. Delivery of product or services that fail to meet the item specifications;
ii. Delivery of product or services that are defective or substandard or fail to pass product inspection;
iii. Delivery of a product substitution, except as specifically authorized;

iv. Failure to meet required delivery schedules;
V. Failure to timely supply the awarded products or services at the contract price;
vi. Failure to timely remit any service fee due the Cooperative under the Contract or any other BuyBoard
contract with Vendor, its parent company, or affiliates;
vii. Failure to provide, within a reasonable time and where required by the Contract, information reasonably
requested by the Cooperative including, but not limited to, information requested under section E.12 of
these Terms and Conditions;
viii. Processing a Purchase Order received directly from a Cooperative member, without prior written approval
from the Cooperative's administrator;
ix. Providing architectural or engineering services under the Contract that must be procured pursuant to the
Professional Services Procurement Act (Chapter 2254 of the Texas Government Code);
X. Selling non -awarded products or services under the Contract or any other BuyBoard contract with
Vendor; or
xi. Vendor refusal, inability or loss of ability, to offer or provide awarded goods or services to Cooperative
members in awarded regions or states unless caused by a Force Majeure event pursuant and subject to
section E.19.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this section E.18, in the event of Vendor's default under or breach of any
provision in the Contract, the Cooperative reserves the right to enforce the performance of the Contract in any
manner prescribed by law or deemed to be in the best interest of the Cooperative or necessary or appropriate to
protect or provide best value to Cooperative members. Without limiting the scope of the foregoing, the
Cooperative or its administrator may temporarily inactivate (suspend) Vendor from the BuyBoard website and as a
BuyBoard vendor, suspend or remove any Vendor Designated Dealer from the BuyBoard website, or require
removal of an awarded product or service with or without prior notice to Vendor, if the Cooperative or its
administrator determines that a breach under the Contract or any other BuyBoard contract with Vendor, including
nonpayment of service fees, or a potential public health, policy or safety issue warrants such action, and the
temporary inactivation will remain in effect pending further action or termination of the Contract by the
Cooperative or its administrator. Vendor remains liable for all obligations and responsibilities incurred prior to and
during any temporary inactivation and prior to termination, as applicable.
In the event the Cooperative terminates the Contract, in whole or in part, the Cooperative reserves the right to
award the terminated Contract, or any portion thereof, to the next Proposer the Cooperative determines to provide
best value to Cooperative members.
Additionally, the Cooperative may sue for breach of contract and specific performance and, in addition to contract
damages, recover attorneys' fees and costs. Vendor shall be liable for any and all damages permitted by law, and
any deviation submitted by Vendor in its Proposal seeking to limit Vendor's liability to the Cooperative shall be
deemed rejected.
The Cooperative will not be liable to Vendor for any damages (including, but not limited to, loss of profits or loss of
business, or any special, consequential, exemplary, or incidental damages) resulting from termination based on
Vendor's default or breach of contract.
If any delay or failure of performance is caused by a Force Majeure event as described in section E.19 (Force
Majeure) of these Terms and Conditions, the Cooperative may, in its sole discretion, terminate the Contract in
whole or part, provided such termination complies with the procedures set out above. Any Contract termination
resulting from any cause other than a Force Majeure event will be deemed valid reason for the Cooperative not
considering any future proposals from the defaulting Vendor.

In the event a Vendor's Contract is terminated under this section E.18, Vendor shall remain responsible for
payment of all service fees to the Cooperative for products and services sold to Cooperative members prior to
such termination.
(b) Default and Termination of Cooperative Member Purchase
A Cooperative member has no authority to terminate the Contract at the Cooperative level for default, but may
terminate a Purchase Order or refuse to accept delivery as provided for in these Terms and Conditions or for
Vendor's material breach of a term or condition included in a Cooperative member Purchase Order or
supplemental contract. Additionally, to the extent permitted by law, Cooperative members may sue for breach of
contract and specific performance and, in addition to contract damages, recover attorneys' fees and costs.
Nothing herein shall limit the remedies available to a Cooperative member under applicable law.
A Cooperative member will not be liable to Vendor for any damages (including, but not limited to, loss of profits
or loss of business, or any special, consequential, exemplary, or incidental damages) resulting from termination
based on Vendor's default or breach of contract.
19. Force Majeure
The term Force Majeure includes, but is not limited to, governmental restraints or decrees, provided they affect all
companies in Vendor's industry equally and are not actions taken solely against Vendor; acts of God (except natural
phenomena, such as rain, wind or flood, which are normally expected in the locale in which performance is to take
place); work stoppages due to labor disputes or strikes; fires; explosions; epidemics; riots; war; rebellion; or
sabotage.
The Cooperative, Cooperative members, and Vendor are required to use due caution and preventive measures to
protect against the effects of Force Majeure, and the burden of proving that Force Majeure has occurred rests on the
party seeking relief under this section E.19. The claiming party must promptly notify the other party in writing, citing
the details of the Force Majeure event, use due diligence to overcome obstacles to performance created by the Force
Majeure event, and resume performance immediately after the obstacles have been removed, provided the Contract
has not been terminated in the interim.
Delay or failure of performance of the Contract or a Purchase Order caused solely by a Force Majeure event will be
excused for the period of delay caused solely by the Force Majeure event, provided the party claiming the event
promptly notifies the other party in writing. Neither party shall have any claim for damages against the other resulting
from delays caused solely by Force Majeure. The Cooperative will not be responsible for any cost incurred by Vendor
because of a Force Majeure event. A Cooperative member will not be responsible for any cost incurred by Vendor
because of the Force Majeure event unless an authorized representative of the Cooperative member has requested,
in writing, that Vendor incur such cost in connection with any delay or work stoppage caused by the Force Majeure
event.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this section E.19, in the event Vendor's performance of its obligations under
the Contract is delayed or stopped by a Force Majeure event, the Cooperative may, at its sole option, terminate the
Contract in accordance with section E.18 (Remedies for Default and Termination of Contract) of these Terms and
Conditions. This section E.19 does not limit or otherwise modify any of the Cooperative's rights as provided elsewhere
in the Contract.
F. Miscellaneous
1. Assignment
Vendor may not sell, assign, transfer, convey or subcontract any responsibility or obligation created by the Contract in
regards to the Cooperative without the Cooperative's prior written consent. A Vendor wishing to assign, transfer, or
convey all or any portion of an awarded Contract shall submit a written request to the Cooperative, preferably at least

60 days before the projected effective date of the assignment and provide such information as the Cooperative may
require to process and consider the request.
Approval or denial of an assignment request shall be within the sole discretion of the Cooperative, and a vendor not
awarded a Contract through the Proposal Invitation process has no right or vested interest to assignment of an
awarded Contract. In determining whether to consent, the Cooperative may consider any relevant factors, including
whether the party to which the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or subcontract is proposed is bound to and will
honor all obligations and responsibilities imposed on Vendor under the Contract, including awarded pricing, and the
best interest of and value to Cooperative members. Vendor's attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or
subcontracting of any part of the Contract except in compliance with this section F.1 is void and ineffective.
If Vendor ceases distribution of an awarded product for any reason during the Contract term, including ceasing
distribution in one or more regions or states designated by Vendor in its Texas Regional Service Designation or State
Service Designation forms, and the Cooperative determines that continued availability of the product provides best
value to Cooperative members, the Cooperative reserves the right to place the manufacturer of such product on the
BuyBoard for the remainder of the Contract term for any or all regions or states in which Vendor has ceased
distribution, in which event Vendor's Contract for such product will be deemed assigned to the product manufacturer.
2. Notices
Unless otherwise provided for in this Proposal Invitation, any written notice or other communication required by the
Contract or by law will be conclusively deemed to have been given and received on the third business day after such
written notice has been deposited in the U. S. Mail, properly addressed, and with sufficient postage affixed thereto,
provided that actual notice may also be given in any other manner used in commerce.
If the conclusion of any time period provided for in these Terms and Conditions falls on a weekend or a federal
holiday, the conclusion of such time period shall be deemed to be extended until the next business day. Otherwise,
references to time periods measured by days shall mean calendar days unless business days are specifically
designated.
3. Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Disclosures
Vendor agrees to abide by all applicable laws, regulations, and executive orders pertaining to equal employment
opportunity, including federal laws and the laws of the state in which Vendor's primary place of business is located. In
accordance with such laws, regulations and executive orders, Vendor agrees that no person in the United States shall,
on the grounds of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, age, veteran status, disability or genetic information, be
excluded from employment with or participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to
discrimination under any program or activity performed by Vendor under the Contract. Upon request, Vendor will
furnish information regarding its nondiscriminatory hiring and promotion policies.
4. Applicable Law, Venue and Dispute Resolution
The Contract is governed by and will be construed according to the laws of the State of Texas, including the Uniform
Commercial Code (UCC) as adopted in the State of Texas as effective and in force on the date of the Contract. Venue
for any litigation concerning the Cooperative or TASB lies in Austin, Travis County, Texas, and venue for any litigation
between a Cooperative member and Vendor arising under the Contract lies in the home county of the member. The
parties have the mutual affirmative duty to attempt to resolve any disputes that arise under the Contract in good faith at
the least possible expense prior to the initiation of any type of judicial or administrative proceeding.
S. Waiver
No claim or right arising out of a breach of the Contract can be discharged in whole or part by a waiver or
renunciation of the claim or right unless the waiver or renunciation is supported by consideration and is in writing
signed by the aggrieved party. A parry's failure to require strict performance of any provision of the Contract does not
waive or diminish that party's right thereafter to demand strict compliance with that or any other provision.

6. Interpretation — Parol Evidence
This writing is intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement and a complete and exclusive
statement of the terms of their agreement. No course of prior dealing between the parties and no usage of the trade
is relevant to supplement or explain any terms used in the Contract. Acceptance or acquiescence in a course of
performance rendered under the Contract is not relevant to and does not determine the meaning of the Contract
even though the accepting or acquiescing party has knowledge of the performance and opportunity for objection.
7. Right to Assurance
Whenever the Cooperative in good faith has reason to question Vendor's intent to perform, the Cooperative may
demand that Vendor give written assurance of its intent to perform. In the event that a demand is made and no
assurance is given within five (5) days, the Cooperative may treat the failure as an anticipatory repudiation of the
Contract.
8. Non -Appropriations Clause
Texas law prohibits the obligation and expenditure of public funds beyond the fiscal year for which a budget has been
approved. A Cooperative member that is a governmental entity (a) reserves the right to rescind a multi -year purchase
order or other agreement to purchase products or services under the Contract at the end of the member's fiscal year
if it is determined that funding is not available to extend the agreement; and (b) will use its best efforts to attempt to
obtain and appropriate funds for payment.
9. Invalid Term or Condition
If any term or condition of the Contract is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Contract will not be
affected and will be valid and enforceable.
10. Remedies Cumulative
The remedies available to the Cooperative, a Cooperative member, or Vendor under this Contract are in addition to
any other remedies that may be available under law or in equity.
11. Signatures
Except as required pursuant to section B.13 (Proposal Signatures) of these Terms and Conditions with respect to
Proposals and related documentation or as otherwise specifically required in these Terms and Conditions, all notices,
requests, amendments and other written documentation required or authorized under the Contract may be provided
electronically or as an imaged document, and an electronic, facsimile or imaged signature shall be deemed an
original.
12. Right of Setoff
Any indebtedness or obligation owed by Vendor or Vendor's affiliates to the Cooperative may be appropriated and
applied by the Cooperative at any time, and from time to time, on any indebtedness or other obligation owed by the
Cooperative to Vendor or Vendor's affiliates, whether such indebtedness or other obligations are now existing or
hereafter arise, and whether under the Contract or otherwise. It is further understood and agreed that this right of
setoff is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right, remedy or recourse which is available to the Cooperative
either at law or equity, and that failure to exercise such right of setoff in any instance shall not constitute a waiver of
such right.
