SPECIAL PROVISIONS
Incorporated by attachment, as part of the whole agreement, H-GAC and the Contractor do, hereby agree to the
Special Provisions as follows:
ARTICLE 1: BIDS/PROPOSALS INCORPORATED
In addition to the whole Agreement, the following documents listed in order of priority are incorporated
into the Agreement by reference: Bid/Proposal Specifications and Contractor's Response to the Bid/Proposal.
ARTICLE 2: END USER AGREEMENTS ("EUA")
H-GAC acknowledges that the END USER may choose to enter into an End User Agreement ("EUA) with the
Contractor through this Agreement, and that the term of the EUA may exceed the term of the current H-GAC
Agreement. H-GAC's acknowledgement is not an endorsement or approval of the End User Agreement's
terms and conditions. Contractor agrees not to offer, agree to or accept from the END USER, any terms or
conditions that conflict with those in Contractor's Agreement with H-GAC. Contractor affirms that
termination of its Agreement with H-GAC for any reason shall not result in the termination of any underlying
EUA, which shall in each instance, continue pursuant to the EUA's stated terms and duration. Pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement, termination of this Agreement will disallow the Contractor from entering into any
new EUA with END USERS. Applicable H-GAC order processing charges will be due and payable to H-GAC
on any EUAs, surviving termination of this Agreement between H-GAC and Contractor.
ARTICLE 3: MOST FAVORED CUSTOMER CLAUSE
Contractor shall provide its most favorable pricing and terms to H-GAC. If at any time during this Agreement,
Contractor develops a regularly followed standard procedure of entering into agreements with other
governmental customers within the State of Texas, and offers the same or substantially the same
products/services offered to H-GAC on a basis that provides prices, warranties, benefits, and or terms more
favorable than those provided to H-GAC, Contractor shall notify H-GAC within ten (10) business days
thereafter, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be automatically retroactively amended, to the effective date
of Contractor's most favorable past agreement with another entity. Contractor shall provide the same prices,
warranties, benefits, or terms to H-GAC and its END USER as provided in its most favorable past agreement.
H-GAC shall have the right and option at any time to decline to accept any such change, in which case the
amendment shall be deemed null and void. If Contractor claims that a more favorable price, warranty, benefit,
or term that was charged or offered to another entity during the term of this Agreement, does not constitute
more favorable treatment, than Contractor shall, within ten (10) business days, notify H-GAC in writing,
setting forth the detailed reasons Contractor believes the aforesaid offer is not in fact most favored treatment.
H-GAC, after due consideration of Contractor's written explanation, may decline to accept such explanation
and thereupon this Agreement between H-GAC and Contractor shall be automatically amended, effective
retroactively, to the effective date of the most favored agreement, to provide the same prices, warranties,
Page 1 of 4
DocuSign Envelope ID: 70ECF892-AF07-49E3-BF5D-9D214DA242AF
benefits, or terms to H-GAC and the END USER.
EXCEPTION. This clause shall not be applicable to prices and price adjustments offered by a bidder,
Proposer or contractor, which are not within bidder's/proposer's control [example; a manufacturer's bid
concession], or to any prices offered to the Federal Government and its agencies.
ARTICLE 4: PARTY LIABILITY
Contractor's total liability under this Agreement, whether for breach of contract, warranty, negligence, strict
liability, in tort or otherwise, is limited to the price of the particular products/services sold hereunder.
Contractor agrees either to refund the purchase price or to repair or replace product(s) that are not as warranted.
Contractor accepts liability to repay, and shall repay upon demand to END USER, any amounts determined by
H-GAC, its independent auditors, or any state or federal agency, to have been paid in violation of the terms of
this Agreement.
ARTICLE 5: GOVERNING LAW & VENUE
Contractor and H-GAC agree that Contractor will make every reasonable effort to resolve disputes with the END
USER in accord with the law and venue rules of the state of purchase. Contractor shall immediately notify H-
GAC of such disputes.

will invoice Contractor for the applicable order processing charge when H-GAC receives notification of an
END USER order. Contractor shall remit to H-GAC the full amount of the applicable order processing
charge, after delivery of any product or service and subsequent END USER acceptance. Payment of the Order
Processing Charge shall be remitted from Contractor to H-GAC, within thirty (30) calendar days or ten (10)
business days after receipt of an END USER's payment, whichever comes first, notwithstanding Contractor's
receipt of invoice. For sales made by Contractor based on this Agreement, including sales to entities without
Interlocal Agreements, Contractor shall pay the applicable order processing charges to H-GAC. Further,
Contractor agrees to encourage entities who are not members of H-GAC's Cooperative Purchasing Program to
execute an H-GAC Interlocal Agreement. H-GAC reserves the right to take appropriate actions including, but
not limited to, Agreement termination if Contractor fails to promptly remit the appropriate order processing
charge to H-GAC. In no event shall H-GAC have any liability to Contractor for any goods or services an
END USER procures from Contractor. At all times, Contractor shall remain liable to pay to H-GAC any
order processing charges on any portion of the Agreement actually performed, and for which compensation was
received by Contractor.
ARTICLE 7: LIOUIDATED DAMAGES
Contractor and H-GAC agree that Contractor shall cooperate with the END USER at the time an END USER
purchase order is placed, to determine terms for any liquidated damages.
ARTICLE 8: INSURANCE
Unless otherwise stipulated in Section B of the Bid/Proposal Specifications, Contractor must have the
following insurance and coverage minimums:
a. General liability insurance with a Single Occurrence limit of at least $1,000,000.00, and a General
Page 2 of 4
DocuSign Envelope ID: 70ECF892-AF07-49E3-BF5D-9D214DA242AF

General Aggregate limit of at least two times the Single Occurrence limit for all Products except
Automotive Fire Apparatus. For Automotive Fire Apparatus, see Section B of the Bid/Proposal
Specifications.
Property Damage or Destruction insurance is required for coverage of End User owned
equipment while in Contractor's possession, custody or control. The minimum Single Occurrence
limit is $500,000.00 and the General Aggregate limit must be at least two times the Single Occurrence
limit. This insurance may be carried in several ways, e.g. under an Inland Marine policy, as art of
Automobile coverage, or under a Garage Keepers policy. In any event, this coverage must be specifically
and clearly listed on insurance certificate(s) submitted to H-GAC.
b. Insurance coverage shall be in effect for the length of any contract made pursuant to the Bid/Proposal,

a separate insurance certificate must be submitted for each such party.
e. H-GAC reserves the right to contact insurance underwriters to confirm policy and certificate issuance
and document accuracy.
ARTICLE 9: PERFORMANCE AND PAYMENT BONDS FOR INDIVIDUAL ORDERS
H-GAC's contractual requirements DO NOT include a Performance & Payment Bond (PPB); therefore,
Contractor shall offer pricing that reflects this cost savings. Contractor shall remain prepared to offer a PPB to
cover any order if so requested by the END USER. Contractor shall quote a price to END USER for
provision of any requested PPB, and agrees to furnish the PPB within ten business (10) days of receipt of END
USER's purchase order.

including cancellation of Agreement.
