that Azure cloud services conform to the NIST CSF risk management practices, as defined in
the Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity, Version 1.0, dated
February 12, 2014. The Azure NIST CSF control mapping demonstrates alignment of the
Azure FedRAMP authorized services against the CSF Core. In the course of this assessment,

AWS: AWS Cloud infrastructure and services have been validated by third-party testing
performed against the NIST 800-53 Revision 4 controls, as well as additional FedRAMP
requirements. AWS has received FedRAMP Authorizations to Operate (ATO) from multiple
authorizing agencies for both AWS GovCloud (US) and the AWS US East/West Region.
Google: The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), within the U.S.
Department of Commerce, creates standards and guidelines pertaining to information
security. NIST developed Special Publication 800-53 (NIST SP 800-53) to build on statutory
responsibilities laid out in the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), Public
Law (P.L.) 107-347, which is a federal law that requires U.S. government agencies to create,
review, and report on agency-wide practices that prioritize information security. NIST 800-
53 mandates specific security and privacy controls required for federal government and
critical infrastructure. Through an independent, third-party assessment, Google Cloud has
received an attestation letter confirming that a subset of our Google Cloud Platform and
Google Workspace services are operating in compliance with NIST 800-53 controls.

a) Specify how its solutions are relevant to private cloud infrastructure
Ingram Micro offers public cloud provider offerings (referenced above) as a means by which
to build private cloud infrastructure with security technologies and practices suitable for
each OMNIA Member requirements. As such, we are not offering Private Cloud
Infrastructure beyond what is offered by public cloud providers.
IBM
IBM offers cloud infrastructure that can be deployed as a private cloud. Part of IBM's

noted, this functionality can be configured as needed to achieve your private cloud
infrastructure goals.
Microsoft
Microsoft Azure services and supports private cloud capabilities. Private cloud computing
gives businesses many of the benefits of a public cloud - including self-service, scalability,
and elasticity - with the additional control and customization available from dedicated
resources over a computing infrastructure hosted on-premises. In addition, private clouds
deliver a higher level of security and privacy through both company firewalls and internal
hosting to ensure operations and sensitive data are not accessible to third-party providers.
Ingram Micro is not offering private cloud from a co-location\ hybrid cloud provider but as
noted this functionality can be configured as needed to achieve your private cloud
infrastructure goals.
AWS
Amazon Web Services offers the ability to develop a private cloud environment. The benefit
of a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is that it allows customers to provision a private, isolated
section of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud where they can launch AWS resources in a
virtual network using customer-defined IP address ranges. Amazon VPC also provide
customers with several options for connecting their AWS virtual networks with other
remote networks. Ingram Micro is not offering private cloud from a co-location\ hybrid
cloud provider but as noted, this functionality can be configured as needed to achieve your
private cloud infrastructure goals.
GCP
Google Cloud Platform offers the ability to utilize Google Cloud Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
to provide a private cloud environment. Networking functionality to Compute Engine virtual
machine (VM) instances, Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) containers, and the App Engine
flexible environment deliver networking for your cloud-based services at a global scale. Also,
it automatically scales your app up and down while also balancing the load. Ingram Micro is
not offering private cloud from a co-location\ hybrid cloud provider but as noted this
functionality can be configured as needed to achieve your private cloud infrastructure goals.
b) Provide proof of your company's authorization to resell
• Proof of authorization to resell may come from either the CIP or an
authorized distribution channel
Included within Tab 7 are Letters of Authorization from each of the OEMs listed
above: IBM, Microsoft, AWS, and Google.

x. Describe payment methods offered.
Ingram Micro Public Sector Contract authorized dealers will be responsible for invoicing member
agencies for products and services purchased on the Contract. Contract-authorized dealers offer net
terms accounts, and many will accept credit cards/p-cards. Ingram Micro Public Sector provides our
dealers with net terms as well as the ability to purchase via credit cards.
xi. Propose the frequency of updates to the Offeror's pricing structure. Describe any proposed
indices to guide price adjustments. If offering a catalog contract with discounts by category,
while changes in individual pricing may change, the category discounts should not change
over the term of the Contract.
xii.
xiii.
Ingram Micro Public Sector is pleased to offer the most robust portfolio of technology products and
services in the industry, representing hundreds of top OEM vendors. Based on the sheer volume of
OEM vendors on offer, Ingram Micro Public Sector cannot predict the frequency of updates to each
OEM vendor's pricing structure. Ingram Micro Public Sector has, however, offered a Contract catalog
discount structure designed to facilitate not-to-exceed Contract pricing for the vast majority of
Ingram Micro Public Sector's valuable OEM vendor portfolio. Not all OEM vendors will choose to
participate. We believe this approach offers agencies consistency and transparency. Also, this is the
maximum price an agency will pay for a product or service purchased on contract.
Describe how future product introductions will be priced and align with Contract pricing
proposed.
Because Ingram Micro Public Sector has offered a Contract catalog discount structure designed to
facilitate no-to-exceed Contract pricing for the vast majority of Ingram Micro Public Sector's
valuable OEM vendor portfolio, future product introduction will naturally align to proposed Contract
pricing.
Provide any additional information relevant to this section.
If Ingram Micro Public Sector is made aware of a pricing scenario that cannot be facilitated by the
proposed Contract catalog discount structure, we will engage OMNIA for pricing guidance that aligns
to Contract parameters.
Not to Exceed Pricing. Region 4 ESC requests pricing be submitted as not to exceed pricing. Unlike
fixed pricing, the Contractor can adjust submitted pricing lower if needed but, cannot exceed original
pricing submitted. Contractor must allow for lower pricing to be available for similar product and
service purchases. Cost plus pricing as a primary pricing structure is not acceptable.
Acknowledged and affirmed.

As a global distributor of information technology products and an industry leader in supply chain
management and logistics, Ingram Micro and its affiliates provides diverse, complete, and precise
processes to ship, track, and manage information technology (IT) products. Our ability to manage
the supply chain process, protect against counterfeit and tainted goods, and provide the broadest
possible spectrum of technology products and services is unmatched by any broad-line distributor
in the world today. Ingram Micro understands and tracks various legislative controls which
demonstrate the recent trend toward reducing the risks of counterfeit, tainted, unauthorized,
substitute or illicit products, and their associated entry into the technology landscape. The depth of
these initiatives shows that the components of supply chain security for information technology
systems extends well beyond the processes of acquiring systems from authorized sources and the
associated logistics of transporting those systems.
To manage risks, we maintain our own Risk Management Information System which tracks,
manages, and reports on business, operations, security, information, transportation, logistics, and
claims associated with supply chain risks. This Risk Management Information System is one
component of the management of risk and the associated policies and procedures that are
implemented globally by Ingram Micro. The management of risk is reviewed regularly and is
formally a part of our annual strategic planning process conducted at the executive level. Ingram
Micro's strategic risks are reviewed by our executive committee. Of the various parts of our supply
chain management initiative, risk activities are tracked and monitored throughout the incumbent
audited processes.
Secure Supply Chain Certifications (C-TPAT II and TAPA Certifications)
Supply Chain security is a priority at Ingram Micro Public Sector. Examples of this include our
parent company Ingram Micro's Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) Tier 2
certification, our security practices at our Advanced Logistics Centers, Master Service Agreements
with our carriers stipulating rigorous security measures, Ingram Micro's Information Security ISO
27001 certification, and our participation in TAPA.

Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) initiative designed to strengthen and improve the international supply chain and U.S. border
security. This joint government-business initiative is designed to build cooperative relationships
that strengthen their overall supply chain and border security. C-TPAT certification is issued to
participants only after meeting very strict government criteria. Ingram Micro is Tier 2 certified
(Level 1 is the lowest certification, 3 is the highest). The supply chain is defined from the point of
origin (manufacturer/supplier/vendor) through the point of distribution. C-TPAT Minimum Security
Requirements include but are not limited to Business Partner Selection, Container Security,
Physical Access Controls, Personnel Security, Procedural Security, Physical Security, Security
Training and Threat Awareness and Information Technology (IT) Security. Ingram Micro has passed
two re-certification audits by U.S. Customs since achieving Tier 2 status.
Ingram Micro and our vendor partners are engaged in supply chain security at a level that would be
expected for technology-related products. Along with our C-TPAT tier 2 certification, 98% of our
top 50 vendor partners that supply physical products are C-TPAT certified as well. The Transported
Asset Protection Association (TAPA) is another area where Ingram Micro's facilities are either
TAPA-certified or are TAPA-compliant and are in the process of being certified. Many of our vendor
partners are also either TAPA certified or compliant.
Ingram Micro generally adheres to, and often exceeds, the various best practices and standards as
outlined and published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Customs-
Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT), the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA),
Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs),
National Security Agency (NSA) Systems and Network Analysis Center (SNAC) guides, and various
other domestic and international standards. The processes, methodologies, procedures, and
corporate policies which protect the integrity of the supply chain have become an integral part of
our operations, and span organizationally through the following integrated business divisions:
• Logistics, Transportation and Warehouse Management
• Risk Management
• Operations Management
• Information Security
• Vendor Management
• Sales Management
• Human Resources
These groups are collectively responsible for Ingram Micro's conformance with industry best
practices, certifications, audits, and the application of supply chain security models. These best
practices are a part of ISO/IEC Standards, certifications, internal audits, third-party audits, and
other certifications. Ingram Micro's Supply Chain Risk Management process includes evaluating,

goal of reducing losses in the supply chain. TAPA has more than 600 members in the Americas,
Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. Ingram Micro is eitherTAPA certified orTAPA compliant
in all of our North American Advanced Logistics Centers. The security requirements of TAPA have
been approved worldwide as the industry standard for cargo operations and transportation
security. TAPA is the industry leader in protection against high-value theft targeted (HVTT) and risk
reduction of criminal activity in the supply chain.
TAPA certification includes, but is not limited to, perimeter security, electronic security, process
controls, background checks, documented security standards, and documented training programs.
Ingram Micro Global Security Strategy, in partnership with TAPA, includes TAPA certifications that
drive standardized behaviors across all regions. TAPA is a key element for the development of
standardized global Security Education and Awareness training. TAPA certifications/audits provide
business leaders with roadmaps leading to changes that strengthen existing security profiles. TAPA
certification further solidifies Ingram Micro's competitive advantage for winning and maintaining
business.

consumption, decreased solid waste generation, reduced greenhouse gas emissions intensity
and continued to invest in the repair, refurbishment and recycling of used electronics.
Through 2021, we prioritized the following areas of corporate responsibility:
• Internal programs to expand CSR competency
• Continued focus on climate action and waste reduction
• Alignment with UN Sustainable Development Goals that are relevant to our impacts and
activities
Environmental Stewardship - With over 35,000 associates and 20 million square feet of
building space worldwide, Ingram Micro's operations generate direct environmental impacts
from greenhouse gas emissions, material consumption and waste generation, as well as
indirect impacts from land use. In addition, our supply chain partners provide everything from
energy and freight services to technology hardware and warehousing equipment, causing
significant additional impacts.
Environmental Management Systems - Ingram Micro's Environmental Stewardship policy
requires facilities to implement site-specific environmental management systems (EMS) in
alignment with the ISO 14001 framework. (Many of our facilities are ISO- 14001 certified.)
Where feasible, and according to business need, facilities are encouraged to pursue EMS
certification. Our priority is to develop systems that are effectively minimizing our
environmental impact through leadership involvement, risk-based planning, collaboration,
operationalizing impact reduction, performance measurement and continuous improvement.
These included:
• Building efficiency projects, including lighting retrofits and installation of water-saving
and energy efficient equipment
• Continuous improvement of processes, including the integration of LEAN principles
• Leasing space in certified sustainable buildings, when feasible
• Optimization, reuse, and recycling of packaging materials

Agencies may use diverse partners through the Master Agreement. Indicate how, if at all,
pricing changes when using the diversity program. If there are any diversity programs, provide
a list of diversity alliances and a copy of their certifications.
Ingram Micro Public Sector LLC offers the Supplier Diversity Program, a program we are able to
offer due to our partnerships with two diverse suppliers. The first supplier is Mobilematics, a
small, Woman, Minority Owned business. The second supplier is Native American Technology
Distribution Inc. a small, Disadvantaged, Minority, Native American-owned business. Because of
this Mentor / Protege type relationship, Ingram Micro's reseller community is able to leverage

these diversity certifications when there is an opportunity that mandates a socio-economic
status. Agencies can use this program when purchasing from a reseller that does not hold a
diversity certification but there is a request for diversity spend.
Ingram Micro Public Sector also supports additional small and diverse businesses, located across
the country, with a number of socio-economic statuses, such as Service-Disabled Veteran
Owned, HUBzone, Woman and Minority owned enterprises. Also as mentioned throughout the
proposal, Ingram will leverage this contract as an aggregation model contract, authorizing
resellers to leverage the contract. This allows Ingram Micro to add small and diverse reseller
partners directly to the contract and give end user customers the ability to directly work with
these partners.
Certifications for Mobilematics and Native American Technology Distribution Inc. are included
following Tab 7.

H. List any relationships with subcontractors or affiliates intended to be used when
providing services and identify if subcontractors meet minority-owned standard if any, list
which certifications subcontractors hold and certifying agency.
As a distributor of information technology products and services, Ingram Micro Public Sector
leverages a robust channel of reseller partners (subcontractors) with over 7,000 accounts
selling products and services in the public sector market. Ingram Micro Public Sector's primary
strategy of capturing and managing public sector contracts is to offer their use as a value-added
service to our channel partners. A listing of Ingram Micro Public Sector resellers will be
provided to Region 4 ESC and Omnia Partners for approval and inclusion on the contract. The
Ingram Micro Public Sector team supporting this contract has experience managing other public
sector contracts where we have hundreds of participating resellers. We will identify reseller
partners selling both Cloud and our Value-Added Services that will offer the contract
nationwide sales and support coverage. Many of these reseller partners will have small or
minority status to help create a diverse group of partners from who end users will be able to
work to meet their requirements. Each reseller location would equate to a sales location that
could provide sales and services to the Omnia Contract customer base. Additionally, several of
these resellers support sales throughout the country with multiple locations. We will also
continue to identify resellers to add to the contract throughout the term of the contract as we
market and identify sales opportunities.
I. Describe how supplier differentiates itself from its competitors.
Ingram Micro has done a great deal to evolve our strategic capabilities both organically and
inorganically and have invested more than $2 billion in over 40 companies since 2012. As a
result, we have emerged from being a technology distributor to becoming more diversified and
including lifecycle support, services, and Cloud businesses. This evolution, and our solution
investment strategy have provided us with our first key area of distinction. As a result, you will
recognize that Ingram Micro is by far the channel leader in Cloud innovation and capabilities,
Datacenter and Security, IoT, and a number of other progressive markets and practices. Another
key point of differentiation would certainly be our global structure and reach. With operations
in 59 countries, and 20 million square feet of warehouse space in 189 locations, Ingram Micro is
the only true global player firmly represented in each geographic theater. Our reach is second to
none and backed by truly global teams and functions in our business - no one can truly scale like
we can. Last, and certainly not least, our people are and will always be our biggest competitive
advantage. As we celebrated our 40th anniversary as a company in 2019, we are fortunate to
have remained the market leader for over four decades because of the more than 35,000
talented and passionate team members we have across the globe.
Some key areas of Ingram Micro's differentiation from our competitors:
• Commitment to Diversification. Ingram Micro believes that our ability to execute on
new initiatives, adapt to new business models and enter new geographic markets

provides a competitive advantage by enabling us to capture opportunities and
overcome the risks, volatility and demand fluctuations in a single market, vendor, or
product segment.
• Expanded Product Markets — In recent years, we have made a number of investments
focused on augmenting our IT product distribution business through the global
expansion of our specialty product offerings and solutions, such as AIDC/POS, CE, data
center, mobility, and enterprise computing.
• Geographic Coverage - Ingram's presence in more markets than any other broad-based
technology products distributor provides us with a more balanced global portfolio which
allows us to better manage and mitigate risk. Our broad global footprint enables us to
better serve our resellers and suppliers by leveraging our extensive sales and
distribution network.
• Differentiated Service Offerings — Ingram Micro believes that our service offerings
provide a means to diversify our revenue stream while distinguishing us from our
competitors. We continue to provide innovative solutions for our reseller customers and
vendor partners such as with our cloud services offerings. We are focused on building
our presence in those product categories and solutions that will benefit from key growth
trends, such as the continuing technology shift to mobile devices and the need for
enterprise computing solutions to handle the growing data center market.
J. Describe any present or past litigation, bankruptcy or reorganization involving supplier.
There is no present or past litigation, bankruptcy or reorganization involving Ingram Micro Public
Sector LLC.
K. Felony Conviction Notice: Indicate if the supplier
a. is a publicly held corporation and this reporting requirement is not
applicable.
b. is not owned or operated by anyone who has been convicted of a felony; or

I. Explain in detail how the sales teams will work with the OMNIA Partners team to implement,
grow and service the national program.
Ingram Micro Public Sector and the Ingram Micro Cloud Division will work with the Omnia Partners
Team to identify gaps in reseller coverage and opportunities for our product offerings. We will
leverage OMNIA Partners staff when available for public sector marketing events and reseller
contract training workshops. The sales team will also lean on the OMNIA Partners Team to help
sell the value and benefits for the Omnia contract to public sector organizations that are not signed
up and need more in-depth engagement to get them signup into the program. Ingram Micro
Public Sector will also promote relationships with its reseller partners and OMNIA Teams to ensure
there is a seamless relationship between all parties work to successfully promote and drive
revenue through the contract vehicle. We will also engage the OMNIA Partners Team to identify
contract best practices to allow us to create the best possible contract environment for Public
Sector Buyers, our Authorized Reseller Partners and Contract Vendors.
Explain in detail how Supplier will manage the overall national program throughout the
term of the Master Agreement, including ongoing coordination of marketing and sales efforts,
timely new Participating Public Agency account set- up, timely contract administration, etc.
Ongoing success of any government contract involves attention to many workstreams. Two of the
most important needs for a successful contract are having highly desired vendor products and
solutions available and a motivated sales channel to support the contract end user requirements.
Throughout the term of the contract, Ingram Micro Public Sector will continue to work to identify
and add Vendor Products and Services that are needed in the Public Sector market. The Sales
Teams will continue to recruit, on-board and training authorized OMNIA contract resellers.
Ingram will use the marketing resources of its internal resources and its vendors to promote
contract use through the creation of marketing collateral, targeted marketing campaigns to new
and participating organizations around products and solutions, and marketing support to
promoting reseller sales efforts. We will also ensure that the Contract Management Team is
working with the Region 4 ESC and OMNIA Partners teams to identify gaps and white spaces in

IM-First — Warehouse Management System (WMS) -Ingram Micro Public Sector's warehouse
management system (WMS) includes a robust inventory management system and system-directed
warehouse processes. Using advanced technology, the system evaluates inventory location and directs
the pick to the designated printer for that zone. The picks are printed and coordinated by priority. The
accuracy is verified and sent to the outbound transportation lanes to be routed. Product coming into
manufacturing is offloaded and placed in staging for induction into WIP.
IM360 -IM360 is a robust CRM utilized by the Ingram Micro Public Sector sales and support teams. This
tool not only helps our teams provide pricing but valuable insight into our vast vendor line card and their
products. IM360 provides critical information that includes stocking availability, applicable discounts,
Country of Origin, order tracking, and vendor authorization requirements. IM360 has advanced logic to
offer recommendations and replacements that are critical for your solutions. Ingram Micro Public Sector
is equipped to seamlessly convert IM360 quotes to orders in an automated process. This ensures
accuracy and improved response times.
E-Commerce / Electronic Connectivity -Ingram Micro Public Sector understands the importance of
conducting business in the most efficient way possible while mitigating risk and human error. Ingram
Micro Public Sector offers fast, efficient, and secure ways to electronically connect to transact business.
Ingram Micro Public Sector offers a robust suite of electronic connectivity options.
Order data submitted through this connectivity is typically not altered. This is to ensure that the details
of the order appear exactly the same way they are sent over by the customer. Not all order types can be
fully transmitted via E-Commerce methods, due to the complexity of the order and/or any specialized
information needs Vendors may need to have on the order. Ingram Micro Public Sector's internal Sales
Teams monitor order activity, ensuring that order flows remain consistent and steady. Sales Teams work
to handle exception orders in the way that is most consistent with the customer's business practices,
providing extra vigilance when order data appears incomplete or in error. Ingram Micro Public Sector
takes steps to authenticate the user placing purchase orders thereby mitigating the risk of fraud. The E-
Commerce systems mitigate risk by eliminating human touch and ensuring that sensitive customer data
is securely stored and monitored. The following are supported ordering methods:
• Electronic Data Interface (EDI) -Ingram Micro Public Sector's EDI program is functionally rich
and very mature. It is highly integrated with IMPulse, Ingram Micro's internal applications
system. The transfer of data using this method is in a standard, structured data format and
includes a header-level detail and segments containing line-level detail. Specific EDI systems
must be in place on both sides to properly transmit, receive, and interpret the data. It replaces
the function of a faxing, emailing, or postal mailing of hardcopy standard business documents.
Data can be transferred electronically using a third-party value-added network (VAN) or via the
internet. It typically requires technical resources on both the Customer's side and Ingram Micro
Public Sector's side to develop and deploy. Some commonly used transactions include price and

sales catalog, inventory advice, purchase orders, acknowledgments, invoices, and advanced
shipping notices.
• APIs (Application Programming Interface) - An API is a service that allows users to configure
their interface to collect or update data on a remote system. The system is designed to
accomplish a business function with one or more APIs. Similar to XML, an API is a real-time
system, which means that transactions are processed within seconds and provide accurate data
directly from Ingram Micro Public Sector. Trading Partners can use the power of our API offering
to deliver fast and accurate data internally to their purchasing team and their customers. There
are numerous APIs available for Ingram's customers to use. The latest listing of Ingram-
supported APIs is available at www.developer.ingrammicro.com.
• www.in�rammicro.com Ingram Micro Public Sector encourages our partners to leverage our
web-based tool, www.ingrammicro.com. This site is available 24 hours per day. Our state-of-
the-art platform gives our partners the ability to automate order status email notifications and
provides online reporting for requests such as Order Confirmation, Shipped Order Details,
Declined Order Status', Back Order Notifications, and availability confirmation of backorder
products. IngramMicro.com offers real-time pricing and availability of products by manufacturer

marketing efforts will leverage this contract vehicle to generate millions in sales over the three-

M. Even though it is anticipated many Public Agencies will be able to utilize the Master
Agreement without further formal solicitation, there may be circumstances where Public
Agencies will issue their own solicitations. The following options are available when
responding to a solicitation for Products covered under the Master Agreement.
i. Respond with Master Agreement pricing (Contract Sales reported to OMNIA
Partners).
ii. If competitive conditions require pricing lower than the standard Master
Agreement not-to-exceed pricing, Supplier may respond with lower pricing
through the Master Agreement. If Supplier is awarded the contract, the sales are
reported as Contract Sales to OMNIA Partners under the Master Agreement.
iii. Respond with pricing higher than Master Agreement only in the unlikely event
that the Public Agency refuses to utilize Master Agreement (Contract Sales are not
reported to OMNIA Partners).
iv. If alternative or multiple proposals are permitted, respond with pricing higher
than Master Agreement, and include Master Agreement as the alternate or
additional proposal.
Detail Supplier's strategies under these options when responding to a solicitation.
Acknowledged and affirmed
Ingram Micro Public Sector, as a distributor, will promote this contract vehicle to its resale channel as an
aggregator type contract. The aggregator contract model is one in which a Distributor holds and
manages the contract vehicle and with approval of the Contract Administrator will authorize resellers to
leverage the contract to sell through its end user customers. In this process, resellers would be the
primary interface with public sector end user customers. Ingram Micro Public Sector will engage its

v. Describe Offeror's experience working with the government sector.
For over 20 years, Ingram Micro has helped our reseller partners meet the needs of more than
104,00 federal and state and local government customers, 31,000 K-12 customers, and 27,000
higher education customers. We offer a wealth of sales, marketing, and technical support to help
our partners and vendors with contracts. Ingram Micro is involved with 15% of annual U.S. public
sector sales. Ingram Micro Public Sector understands the intricacies of the U.S. Public Sector and
can help our customers ramp up quickly and drive business in this lucrative market. Ingram Micro
has invested heavily in resources and solution development to enable our Public Sector partners to
support the demands of the State & Local Governments and Educational markets and capitalize on
the substantial opportunity it represents. We provide a team of dedicated specialists to support
our reseller-partners and vendor communities and have developed an extensive range of offerings
that address key pain points in the market.
vi. Describe how your company will assist in educating customers on the distinct difference of
IaaS, PaaS and SaaS offerings and responsibilities.
A strategic partnership with Ingram Micro is a beneficial decision for many reasons. Here are a few
top reasons why:
• We are a strong, U.S. owned Cloud Distributor/Aggregator, well positioned with top cloud
CSP's to help OMNIA authorized dealers take advantage of best in market programs, while
delivering unparalleled account management and best-in-class billing capabilities.
• We offload operational and undifferentiated steps to provision, manage, migrate, and
optimize cloud services across top CSPs freeing authorized dealers to focus more on
solutions for OMNIA Members.
• Partnering for your success is in our distribution DNA, we are purpose built to assist our
authorized dealers in building a robust pipeline of opportunities while also educating
purchasing entities to identify the most cost effective and efficient model for services
based on their unique needs and requirements.
• We have the "know-how" to simplify operational complexities in CSP program and
platform requirements, so authorized dealers and OMNIA Members don't have to.
vii. Describe past litigation, bankruptcy, reorganization, state investigations of entity or current
officers and directors.
Ingram's size, financial stability, and continuous success has periodically drawn the attention of
others. Although there are various claims, lawsuits, and pending actions against us, they are
incidental and very minor to our operations. It is the opinion of management that the ultimate
resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial
position, results of operations or cash flows. There have been no bankruptcies nor reorganizations
to avoid bankruptcies.

Industry Major Canadian Service provider modernizes traditional
Service Provider application into Azure Kubernetes platform with the help of
Ingram Micro Professional Services team
Location:
Canada
Employees:
1000+
Ingram Micro Cloud helped a major furniture retailer in Australia
migrate their on-premise data center that was running at their
corporate headquarters in Sydney. They were reaching the end of life
with their SQL Server 2008 and Windows Hyper-V 2008.
Operating System: On these servers, they were running a popular but outdated ERP
Microsoft Server 2008 called Sage Accpac 5.6 as well as a variety of other business
R2 applications that were being used at their headquarters and across
various branches throughout the region.
Database: SQL
Server 2008 and The Problem
Windows Hyper-V
2008 Some of the overarching problems they were facing with their legacy
environment included increased operational costs, difficulties
keeping up with their growing storage needs, the need to establish a
viable disaster recovery system for their entire data center, and the
overhead costs of running servers that they couldn't scale up and
down quickly.
They were also not able to upgrade their ERP and other applications
because they did not support the newer version of SQL Server 2008.
As a result, they faced a significant challenge in updating their
environment because the cost of extending support to their current
on-premise operation would have been significant.
The Solution
As part of our IaaS Professional services, our Azure experts did an
assessment of their current environment. This service helped them
better understand, classify, and size existing workloads, enabling the
creation of a roadmap that would ultimately result in a faster
progression to Azure.
We proposed a solution to rehost their Windows and SQL servers on
Azure. By partnering with Ingram Micro Cloud, they were able to
have flexible options while taking the common risks associated with
out of the eauation. acceleratin� the entire arocess.
Our solution leveraged Azure Site Recovery targeting Azure Virtual
Machines with site-to-site VPN. In addition, we suggested a set of
terminal services that enabled remote access host defined in a scale
set. This allowed them to scale their machines up and down as they
needed based on their capacity needs at any given time, which would
ultimately be more cost-effective since their locations are not open
24/7.
Furthermore, one of the more glaring inefiiciencies of their legacy
system was a lack of a backup solution. As part of the services we
provided, we used Azure Site Recovery and configured Azure
Backup. This would ensure that they stayed in compliance with the
data retention policy of Australia which requires data to be stored up
to four years—two years plus an additional two years after an
account has been closed. Our Security Compliance services ensure
that their new Azure environment stays compliant moving forward.
The Results
After we completed the migration, they ended up maintaining a
compliant environment and avoided paying the penalty for running
legacy software on-premise. This cost would have been significant,
for on-premise extended security update pricing is 75% of the EA or
licensing price of the latest version of SQL or Windows server
version. They were able to cut IT and operational costs by having the
ability to upgrade and scale their environment to meet the needs of
their business at any given time.
With our Managed Services, they are able to use our experts to make
sure that their current cloud infrastructure is running at optimal
efficiency and receive technical expertise to resolve any issues
quickly if they arise. And lastly, with our Cost Optimization services,
we were able to provide further recommendations post-migration to
keep their cloud costs in check.

Executive Summary
Edenred streamlines deployments using Azure Kubernetes Service
How did Ingram Micro and Microsoft increase feature releases 10-fold and provide scalability for
Edenred?
When Edenred needed to accelerate their time to market with new application features, we
spearheaded an initiative to modernize and automate deployment for their flagship offering
that saw the implementation of AKS, FrontDoor and DevOps.
Industry: Finance
Headquarters: US
Employees: 2500+
Edenred, formerly known as Accor Services, is an international company that specializes in
specific-purpose payment solutions for companies, employees and merchants
Challenge:
Edenred was looking for a way to deliver new services faster to provide more value for its
customers. Features and enhancements could only be monthly reducing the company's
competitiveness in market. Also, the solution required more agility and the ability to quickly
and dynamically scale up and down, while maintaining the lowest costs possible. The Edenred
development team explored many vendors and technologies in its quest to find the right
container orchestrator. The team knew that it wanted to use Kubernetes because it was the
best-established container solution in the open-source community and backed by Microsoft as a
managed service. The Edenred team was also concerned with an integrated stack which could
handle their disaster recovery needs.
The Edenred team was already using other managed alternatives, but it hoped to find an even
better way to manage the building process of Kubernetes clusters in the cloud. The solution
needed to quickly scale per work queue and to keep the application environment clean post-
execution. However, the Kubernetes management solutions that the team tried were too
cumbersome to deploy, maintain, and get proper support for.
Solution:
Microsoft DevOps and managed AKS was the winning combination allowing Edenred to address
their challenge with feature release tardiness The solution reduced each deployment from 8
manual steps to a single approval increasing velocity of feature releases 10 fold. Azure
Fronddoor and Application Gateway serve as the entry point to two AKS clusters hosting the
frontend web application and backend microservices respectively. Frontend AKS communicates
with the Backend AKS via VNet peering established with the underlying Virtual Networks. Both
the cluster needed to get sync with the AKS API Server and get updates from the internet. So,
limited internet access has been provided to them via Azure Firewall. Route tables are
configured in such a way that any egress traffic to the internet must flow via the Firewall
The communication between the AKS cluster and the PaaS services like the Azure Database for
Postgres, ACR & Key Vault happens via Azure Private Link which makes the communication more
secure.
Azure Stack: FrontDoor, AKS, Container Registry, Storage Accounts, SQL DB, VMs, VNets, VPN
Gateway, Azure AD.
Tech Stack: .Net, C#, Redis Cache, Postgresql
This solution can be implemented for any customer as the ARM templates are easy to
customize.
Benefits of AKS:
Accelerate containerized application development: To accelerate the market use of modern
application development. In AKS, you can easily define, deploy, and upgrade the most complex
Kubernetes structures.
Increased Optional efficiency: AKS provides an automated provisioning, repair, monitoring, and
scaling.
Azure Advisor helps in real-time optimization of Kubernetes deployment.
Secured Foundation: Azure active directory help to get fine-grained identity and access control
to Kubernetes.
Benefits of DevOps:
Ingram Micro Cloud professional services helped add a full Cl/CD pipeline to your AKS clusters
with automated routine tasks and set up a canary deployment strategy in just a few clicks as
part of Edenred deployment strategy. Detect failures early and optimize your pipelines with
deep traceability into your deployments.
It was also important to the team to ensure that the deployment pipeline implemented by the
self-service portal can be extended to serve a continuous integration and continuous
deployment (Cl/CD) process in the future. Automating the creation of new cloud environments
is a key part of this process and extending the self-service portal to trigger such deployments via
some build system (such as Jenkins) using web hook can help the further adoption of these
additional DevOps practices.
RESULTS
The company's decision to migrate to Azure gave them a much more robust network with
improved uptime, which had direct business impact delivering often very large software
solutions to their worldwide clients. Now, anyone can easily make updates to their site via
WordPress, freeing up their software developers to focus on higher-value projects. And finally,
retiring their legacy on-prem hosting platform and its associated costs allowed them to
consolidate vendors and save money.
The company plans to continue down its digital transformation path with Azure, leveraging
cloud technologies to grow their business.

Challenge
• The most important and essential thing is security.
• Delay in time to market increases the cost of delivering software — need for DevOps
method
• Increase agility.
• Application performance measurement, maintaining stability and meeting operational
SLA can be made easy by using DevOps.
There were also optimizations in the development process that could be made to enable new
features to be released, faster. The development team had a desire to adopt a new
methodology to foster good DevOps practices.
Solution
• Design and Implementation of the AWS Landing zone to meet Blackfridge's standards
and requirements. Cloud native security tools will keep the infrastructure more secure
than the on-premises.
• Provisioning of AWS Core Infrastructure components - AWS accounts, networks,
compliance configuration, core IAM identities and roles to meet Blackfridge's workload
hosting requirements.
• Network connectivity to Blackfridge's on-premises network based on Blackfridge's
security policies and segregation of accounts.
• Ingram Micro Cloud coded the deployment of the infrastructure stack in
CloudFormation to give Blackfridge the capability of deploying the infrastructure in an
automated fashion in minutes.
• Finally, Ingram Micro Cloud assisted Blackfridge in establishing code deployment
pipelines using Ansible playbooks for orchestration
Results
• Scalability
• Automation
• Better Collaboration
• Streamlined release of feature and updates
Implementing the solution
DevOps Architecture consists of the following components:
Pipeline for Application deployment in UAT environment:
• AWS CodeCommit consist of three branches i.e develop, release and master.
• The developers develop the codes in develop branch and, commit and merge it to
release branch.
• The CloudWatch detects the changes and pull the source code and put it into an artifact
bucket. CodeBuild downloads the source code into the build environment and then uses
the build specification (buildspec), as defined in the build project, or included directly in
the source code. CodeBuild compiles the source code, runs unit tests, and produces
artifacts that are ready to deploy.
• After performing all the unit test, the CodeBuild upload the code to an artifact bucket,
CodeDeploy download the code and deploy it to Docker swarm container in UAT-VPC
for testing by the QA/Testing department. After it passes all the checkpoints, then the
final code undergoes through the second pipeline
Pipeline for Application deployment in PROD environment:
• The developers take the final codes in release branch and, commit and merge it to
master branch.
• The CloudWatch detects the changes and pull the source code and put it into an artifact
bucket. CodeBuild downloads the source code into the build environment and then uses
the build specification (buildspec), as defined in the build project or included directly in
the source code. CodeBuild compiles the source code, runs unit tests, and produces
artifacts that are ready to deploy.
• After performing all the unit test, the CodeBuild upload the code to an artifact bucket,
CodeDeploy download the code and deploy it to Docker swarm container in PROD-VPC
in the production environment where it is accessed by the end users.

INGRAM MICRO CLOUD GENERAL TERMS
OF SERVICE
Last Modified: February 17, 2020
Thank you for using Ingram Micro Cloud Services! Please carefully read the following general
terms of service (the "Terms") because they govern your use of the websites that link to these
Terms (each, a"Site"), and any use of services provided by Ingram Micro (and not third parties)
and accessed through the Site (together with Site, the "Services"). The Services are only available
to users who are authorized to form legally binding contracts under applicable laws in the
jurisdictions in which the Services are offered or made available. Any software, cloud or other
products or services provided by a third-party vendor (each, a"Vendor") and ordered, purchased,
or accessed by you through a Site are "Vendor Services". When "Ingram Micro", "we", "us" or
"our" is used in these Terms, they refer to Ingram Micro Inc. and/or its applicable affiliate(s).
1. Applicability
If we provide Services to you in the United States of America, these Terms are applicable
between you and Ingram Micro Inc., a Delaware corporation. If we provide Services to you
in another country, these Terms are between you and the applicable Ingram Micro local
affiliate with which you transact.
By using the Services, you accept and agree to be bound by and comply with these Terms,
effective from the first time you access or use the Services. The purchase, sale, resale, and
marketing of the Vendor Services we make available is governed by a separate written
agreement which has been entered into between us and is supplemented by the Ingram
Micro Cloud Marketplace Terms if such transactions are made through the Ingram Micro
Cloud Marketplace.
These Terms are in addition to any terms and conditions that apply to particular Services
or Vendor Services, including any other Ingram Micro or Vendor terms of service, use
agreements, or policies that are incorporated by reference in these Terms or made
available online via the Site or on the applicable Vendor website. For clarity, you agree
that the terms of use for any Vendor Services will be as set forth by the applicable Vendor
and any party accessing or using such Vendor Services must comply with them. While we
may try to assist you in your effort to resolve disputes with Vendors, you agree that we
are not responsible or liable for any Vendor Services in any way.
2. Access and Use of Services
We will create an account for you and your access will be granted in the form of
username and password or by application programming interfaces (APIs) or other remote
access. The access we provide is for your use solely within the applicable country for your
account(s). You are responsible for maintaining the security and confidentiality of this
unique access authorization and all activity in your account at all times. The use of your
credentials by third parties without our prior approval is strictly forbidden. You will
remain primarily liable for any and all charges or fees incurred by or through the use of
the credentials we provide to you. We reserve the right to charge a fee for any of our
Services at any time upon notice to you.
3. Modification and Termination
We may modify these Terms or our Services at any time and may impose new conditions
applicable to the use of the Services in our sole discretion. It is your responsibility to
check these Terms regularly. Any modification to these Terms will be effective once
posted on the Site. Use of the Services after any such modification will signify your
acceptance of such updated Terms. If any modification is unacceptable, you may stop
using the Services. In fact, you may stop using the Services at any time.
We reserve the right to immediately terminate or suspend your access to the Services if:
(i) we stop offering the Service;
(ii) you breach any of these Terms;
(iii) your or your customer's use of the Services would cause risk of harm or loss to us or
other users; or
(iv) you have not used your account for a period of six (6) months.
It should be common sense, so we will not bore you with an exhaustive list of things you
should not do, but if we (in our sole discretion) determine that you have acted
inappropriately or in breach of these Terms, we reserve the right to terminate your
account, prohibit you from using the Services, and take appropriate legal actions. Just so
we are clear, you may not access or use the Services for any illegal activity. We may
monitor your activity at any time. Additionally, we may temporarily or permanently
prevent you from using the Services, cancel the Services without a refund and, if
appropriate, pursue legal action against you. In addition, you may be subject to civil or
criminal penalties and injunctive relief. We will not be liable for any claims that might
arise from our suspension or termination of the Services.
4. Intellectual Property
What is ours is ours and what is yours is yours, and nothing in these Terms or your use of
the Services changes that. When you use the Services, you may provide things like files,
content, messages, contacts and so on, that belong to you. The Terms do not give us any
rights to your property except for the limited right to enable us to offer the Services.
Likewise, the Services are protected by copyright, patent, trademark and other US and
foreign laws and regulations. These Terms do not grant you any right, title or interest in
the Services, others' content in the Services, trademarks, logos or brand features and no
license or ownership right in any intellectual property owned by us or the Vendor is
transferred to you. Please take note that any property developed by you through the use
our Services belong to us — this includes the development of service connectors (a
software mechanism capable of processing requests that relates the Services to your or a
third party's environment) used or developed for interacting with our Services. We
welcome feedback, but note that we may use any comments, ideas, or suggestions
without any obligation to you.
5. Data
You hereby grant us a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free, worldwide right to
use the electronic data specifically pertaining to you and/or your users that is processed
using the Services (collectively, "Data") strictly for the limited purpose of providing the
Services to you and/or your users. If you are a reseller, you agree that you have received
proper consent from your customers to provide their information to us for use in
connection with Services. By using the Services, you agree that we may use Data in
accordance with our Privacy Statement, available here.
6. Disclaimer of Warranties
We strive to provide great Services, but there are things we cannot guarantee. TO THE
MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED WITH NO
WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS." WE
DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
7. Limitation of Liability
WE DO NOT EXCLUDE OR LIMIT OUR LIABILITY TO YOU IF IT WOULD BE ILLEGAL TO DO
SO. THIS INCLUDES ANY LIABILITY FOR OUR FRAUD OR FRAUDULENT
MISREPRESENTATION IN PROVIDING THE SERVICES. IN COUNTRIES WHERE THE
FOLLOWING TYPES OF EXCLUSIONS ARE NOT ALLOWED, WE ARE RESPONSIBLE TO YOU
ONLY FOR LOSSES AND DAMAGES THAT ARE A REASONABLY FORESEEABLE RESULT OF
OUR FAILURE TO USE REASONABLE CARE AND SKILL OR OUR BREACH OF OUR
CONTRACT WITH YOU. IN COUNTRIES WHERE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY
ARE ALLOWED, INGRAM MICRO, ITS AFFILIATES, OR ITS SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE
FOR:
I. ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES;
II. ANY LOSS OF USE, DATA, BUSINESS OR PROFITS, REGARDLESS OF LEGAL THEORY;
OR
III. ANY AMOUNT GREATER THAN $100.
THESE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT
INGRAM MICRO OR ITS AFFILIATES HAVE BEEN WARNED OF THE POSSIBLITY OF SUCH
DAMAG ES.
8. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold us, our affiliates, and our suppliers harmless
from and against any and all third-party claims that might arise as a result of your breach
of your obligations, access to or use of the Services in breach of these Terms.
9. Notices
If you would like to communicate with us concerning our Services, including if you think
that something in those Services infringes your rights, please notify us at the following
address(es):
Email: IMCIoudServiceDesk@cloud.im
Post: Ingram Micro Legal Department
3351 Michelson Drive, Suite 100
Irvine, CA USA 92612
10. Entire Agreement
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the
subject matter of these Terms and supersede and replace any other prior or
contemporaneous agreements, or terms and conditions applicable to the subject matter
of these Terms. These Terms create no third-party beneficiary rights. We reserve all rights
not expressly granted in these Terms.
11. Waiver, Severability, Assignment and Survival
Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our rights to do so. If a provision is
found unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Terms will remain in full force and
effect and an enforceable term will be substituted reflecting our intent as closely as
possible. You may not assign any of your rights under these Terms, and any such attempt
will be void. We may assign our rights to any of our affiliates or subsidiaries, or to any
successor in interest of any business associated with the Services. Any provision required
by its construction or required for rights and obligations enforcement, will survive
termination, including, but not limited to, the indemnity provisions, limitations of liability
and the survival terms of this section.

your access and use of the CMP is governed by the Ingram Micro Cloud General Terms of Service.
1. Introduction to CMP and Applicable Terms. A CMP enables you to order, provision and
purchase Vendor Services for resale to your customers or your own use with automated
recurring billing. Most Vendor Services are offered on a subscription basis for an initial
term that is often subject to auto-renewal, so you should carefully check the term of the
Vendor Service you are ordering to understand the duration, renewal options and
termination rights. Further, purchases through the CMP do not typically require any
physical delivery, and thus no terms in your existing agreement with us related to delivery
or returns will apply to purchases from the CMP unless expressly agreed otherwise. Your
resale of the Vendor Service you provision and purchase from us may be subject to
additional terms and conditions required by the Vendor, and you are responsible for
checking the CMP Site to determine if any Vendor terms apply to the Vendor Services you
wish to resell. All Vendor Services will require the end user to accept the Vendor's end
user license agreement, terms of use, or terms of service, so you need to inform your
customers of this requirement. Likewise, if you are using the Vendor Service yourself, you
will need to accept and abide by those Vendor terms and conditions, too.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these CMP Terms, your license or right to use
any Vendor Services is provided by the Vendor and not Ingram Micro, and is subject to
any terms and conditions made available by the Vendor, including, but not limited to,
warranties (if any), ownership of intellectual property and permitted uses.
2. Payment. You agree to pay the fees and charges for the Vendor Services as outlined on
the CMP. We will accept payment from you by methods we make available and you select.
You acknowledge that fees and charges for Vendor Services you purchase may, as a result
of foreign currency exchange fluctuation, be adjusted during the term of your
subscription, at our discretion. Therefore, the amount you pay for the Vendor Services
may vary from time to time during the term of your subscription, even though you may
purchase Vendor Services in advance for a fixed term. We will notify you of any such
changes by updating the CMP or sending notice by e-mail or regular mail. Fees and
charges for Vendor Services are non-refundable.
You are responsible for billing and collecting any payments for Vendor Services from your
customers. To the extent we provide you with payment frequency options, you agree that
you will extend the payment frequency option that you choose to your customers. You
agree that your payment obligations are NOT a"paid when paid" arrangement.
Accordingly, your customer's failure to pay for Vendor Services will not relieve you of
your obligation to timely pay us for the Vendor Services ordered by or through you. If
they do not pay you, you still must pay for the Vendor Services you order.
You must pay in advance for your or your customer's use of the Vendor Services, unless
otherwise agreed to by us. You authorize us to automatically charge any amounts payable
by you in connection with your or your customer's use of the Vendor Services when
required or applicable, such as when billing is based on consumption or if the Vendor
Services automatically renew, or potentially in other cases.
The amount of Vendor Services you may order is subject to any limits established by your
credit card or other payment processing issuer. For any and all credit card chargebacks,
we may charge you an administration fee. For all valid credit cards that you provide us for
the purpose of payment, if you do not notify us prior to the expiration date of such credit
card, we will automatically update the expiration date of the credit card in our internal
system to the next year in order to prevent interruption of Vendor Services.
If we waive the requirement for you to pay in advance and grant you a credit line, you
must pay within the time indicated on the invoice, and you must pay via wire transfer,
ACH or such other electronic payment method deemed acceptable by us. We may charge
you 1.5% per month, or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is less, for late
payments. Credit limits may be granted, modified, suspended, or terminated at any time
in our sole discretion. We may require you to provide credit card information as backup,
and if you are late in making payment we may automatically charge your credit card for
such outstanding amounts and may charge you a late fee of 3.5%. We may, in our sole
discretion, charge amounts payable by you in USD or in your local currency. If you fail to
make timely payment you agree that we may, in addition to all other rights and remedies
provided to us hereunder or at law, terminate or suspend the affected Vendor Services.
Wire transfers should include any additional processing fees that may apply, particularly
international wire transfers. You are responsible to ensure these additional fees, if any,
are added to the wire transfer submitted to us.
3. Tax. Unless otherwise indicated in an invoice or agreed to in writing by you and us, all
payments are exclusive of national, federal, state, provincial, local or foreign taxes, duties,
tariffs, levies and similar assessments. You agree to bear and be responsible for the
payment of all taxes, duties, tariffs, levies, fees and charges of any kind, including sales,
use, excise or value added taxes, and all other similar charges (collectively, "Taxes") that
are imposed on transactions by or under the authority of any government body,
excluding Taxes based solely upon our net income. If you are a tax-exempt entity or claim
exemption from any Taxes hereunder, you will provide a certificate of exemption and,
after receipt of valid evidence of exemption, we will not charge you any Taxes from which
you are exempt.
4. Unauthorized Use of Vendor Services. Neither you, nor your customer may use or
otherwise access the Vendor Services in a manner that exceeds the authorized use. If you
or your customer exceed the authorized use of the Vendor Services then you will
promptly notify us and immediately: (i) disable or correct impermissible use; or (ii)
purchase additional Vendor Services to correspond to actual use. You agree that we or
the Vendor may review your use of the Vendor Services, and you will provide any
reasonable assistance to verify your or your customer's compliance with these CMP Terms
and any other applicable terms. We may suspend or terminate the use of the Vendor
Services immediately upon written notice of non-compliance identified in such review, in
addition to exercising any other rights or remedies we or the Vendor may have.
5. Termination of Access and Use to CMP. If we determine that you may have violated
these CMP Terms or any other terms referenced herein, including that if at any time your
fees are more than ninety (90) days in arrears, we, in our sole discretion, may deem that
you have abandoned your customers and we reserve the right to terminate your account
with cause and assume ownership of your customers directly, without any financial
consideration or relief whatsoever to you. Upon termination of Vendor Services for any
reason, you will be responsible for all subscription fees for Vendor Services you have
ordered until the end of the subscription term(s). Further, you agree that all amounts
outstanding from you to us for Vendor Services will accelerate and become immediately
due and payable up the effective terminate date.
6. Data and Privacy. You hereby grant us and the applicable Vendors a non-exclusive, non-
transferable, royalty-free, worldwide right to use the electronic data specifically
pertaining to you and/or your users that is processed using the Vendor Services
(collectively, "Data") strictly for the limited purpose of providing the Vendor Services to
you and/or your users. If you are a reseller, you agree that you have received proper
consent from your customers to provide their information to us for use in connection with
Vendor Services or comply with an alternative legal basis for providing their information
to us. By using the CMP, or your or your customer's use of the Vendor Services, you agree
that we may use Data in accordance with our Privacy Statement, available here. Your or
your customers' use of Vendor Services may also be subject to the privacy policies of the
Vendor.
7. Conduct. You agree that you are responsible for using (or your customer's using) the
Vendor Services within the permitted scope and only in accordance with the numbers,
types and identifiers of permitted users, applications, servers, devices, capacity and
locations at or through which you or your customers are permitted to use the Vendor
Services as set forth in these CMP Terms or the Vendor's terms.
8. Support Services. We may make support Services available to you for your use of the
CMP in our discretion from time to time. If we determine that any support request falls
outside the scope of the support Services then available, we may provide custom support
services for a fee, or on a per service basis, and we will provide a quote to you before
performing the additional Services. We may require that you pay for the Services prior to
the commencement of any work being performed. You must, within fourteen (14) days of
receiving any such support Services, notify us if there are any issues with the Services. We
are not responsible for and will not provide assistance with any issues you may raise
beyond this time frame. We may request certain information or Data from you and may
request that you follow certain processes prior to providing you with support for the
Services and to enable us to provide the Services. If you decline to provide such
information or follow such processes, we will not be liable and you will be solely
responsible for the backup of any and all information and data that you provide to us and
you will be solely responsible for any damage and loss you might suffer including,
without limitation, data loss or a privacy breach.
Service level agreements may apply to certain Services. We may change, discontinue or
add service level agreements from time to time, at our discretion.
9. Warranty. You represent and warrant that you are: (i) a party doing business; (ii) located
in a jurisdiction; and (iii) engaged in activities, such that we are not required to obtain any
export license, permit or other approval under applicable laws and regulations including
but not limited to export control and/or sanctions regulations of any jurisdiction the laws
of which may be implicated by these CMP Terms. Furthermore, you acknowledge and
agree that we have the authority to monitor such status on a regular basis and, if we
determined that at any point in time you are in violation of any of these representations
and warranties, we are entitled to immediately suspend or terminate any and all Services
and Vendor Services to you (and any accounts you have with us) without prior written
notice, and you will forfeit any remaining balance on your account.

instruments or investments such as stock, bonds, or real estate, or from a salary, indebtedness, job offer,
or similar interest that might be affected by the particular procurement. ii. FEMA considers an "apparent"
conflict of interest to exist where an actual conflict does not exist, but where a reasonable person with
knowledge of the relevant facts would question the impartiality of the employee, officer, or agent
participating in the procurement. c. Gifts. The officers, employees, and agents of the Participating Public
Agency nor the Participating Public Agency ("NFE") must neither solicit nor accept gratuities, favors, or
anything of monetary value from contractors or parties to subcontracts. However, NFE's may set standards

Microsoft Customer Agreement
US Government Community Cloud
This Microsoft Customer Agreement is incorporated into the Customer Agreement and entered into
between the customer who is a Community member ("Customer') and the person or entity who has
entered into a prime contract with the Customer ("Contractor') as an addendum and governs
Customer's use of the Microsoft Products. It consists of the terms and conditions be(ow, Use Rights,
SLA, and all documents referenced within those documents (together, the "agreement'). It is
effective on the date that the Contractor provisions the Customer's Subscription.
General Terms
These General Terms apply to all of Customer's orders under this Agreement. Capitalized terms have the
meanings given under "Definitions."
License to use Microso ft Products
a. License grant. Products are licensed and not sold. Upon Microsoft's acceptance of each order and
subject to Customer's compliance with this Agreement, Microsoft grants Customer a nonexclusive and
limited license to use the Products ordered as provided in the applicable Use Rights and this
Agreement. These licenses are solely for Customer's own use and business purposes and are
nontransferable except as expressly permitted under this Agreement or applicable law.
b. Duration of licenses. Licenses granted on a subscription basis or for a specified term expire at the
end of the applicable subscription period or term unless renewed. Licenses granted for Products billed
periodically based on metered usage continue as long as Customer continues to pay for usage of the
Product. All other licenses become perpetual upon payment in full.
c. Applicable Use Rights. The latest Use Rights, as updated from time to time, apply to the use of all
Products, subject to the following exceptions. (1) For Products with metered usage-based pricing (e.g.,
metered Azure Services): Material adverse changes published after the start of a calendar month will
apply beginning the following month. (2) For Versioned Software: Material adverse changes published
after the date a Product is licensed will not apply to the use of that Product during that license or
subscription term unless the changes are published with the release of a new version and a
subscription customer chooses to update to that version. (3) For other Products: Material adverse
changes published after the start of the subscription term will not apply during the subscription.
d. End Users. Customer will control access to and use of the Products by End Users and is responsible
for any use of the Products that does not comply with this Agreement.
e. Customer Eligibility. Customer agrees that if it is purchasing academic, government or nonprofit
offers, Customer meets the respective eligibility requirements (https://aka.ms/eligiblitydefinition).
Microsoft reserves the right to verify eligibility and suspend product use if requirements are not met.
f. Affiliates. Customer may order Products for use by its Affiliates. If it does, the licenses granted to
Customer under this Agreement will apply to such Affiliates, but Customer will have the sole right to
enforce this Agreement against Microsoft. Customer will remain responsible for all obligations under
this Agreement and for its Affiliates' compliance with this Agreement.
g. Reservation of Rights. Microsoft reserves all rights not expressly granted in this Agreement. No
rights will be granted or implied by waiver or estoppel. Rights to access or use a Product on a device
do not give Customer any right to implement Microsoft patents or other Microsoft intellectual
property in the device itself or in any other software or devices.
h. Restrictions. Except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, or Product documentation, Customer
must not (and is not licensed to): (1) reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any Product, or
MicrosoftCustomerAgreementUSGovCommCloud(US)(ENG)(Oct2019)
Page 1 of 19
attempt to do so; (2) install or use non-Microsoft software or technology in any way that would
subject Microsoft's intellectual property or technology to any other license terms; (3) work around any
technical limitations in a Product or restrictions in Product documentation; (4) separate and run parts
of the Product on more than one device; (5) upgrade or downgrade parts of the at different times; (6)
transfer parts of a Product separately; or (7) distribute, sublicense, rent, lease, or lend any Product, in
whole or in part, or use them to offer hosting services to a third party.
h. License transfers and assignments. Customer may only transfer fully-paid, perpetual licenses to (1)
an Affiliate or (2) a third party solely in connection with the transfer of hardware to which, or
employees to whom, the licenses have been assigned as part of (a) a divestiture of all or part of an
Affiliate or (b) a merger involving Customer or an Affiliate. Upon such transfer, Customer must
uninstall and discontinue using the licensed Product and render any copies unusable. Customer must
notify Microsoft of a License transfer and provide the transferee a copy of these General Terms, the
applicable Use Rights and any other documents necessary to show the scope, purpose and limitations
of the licenses transferred. Attempted license transfers that do not comply with this section are void.
Non-Microsoft Products.
Non-Microsoft Products are provided under separate terms by the Publishers of such products. Customer
will have an opportunity to review those terms prior to placing an order for a Non-Microsoft Product
through a Microsoft online store or Online Service. Microsoft is not a party to the terms between
Customer and the Publisher. Microsoft may provide Customer's contact information and transaction
details to the Publisher. Microsoft makes no warranties and assumes no responsibility or liability
whatsoever for Non-Microsoft Products. Customer is solely responsible and liable for its use of any Non-
Microsoft Product.
Veri fying compliance.
a. Right to verify compliance. Microsoft has the right, at its expense, to verify compliance on all use
and distribution of products by Customer's and its Affiliates. To such end, Customer must keep
records relating to all use and distribution of products. Verification will be conducted through an
independent auditor retained by Microsoft, and Customer must provide, without undue delay, all
necessary information, including visible access to systems running the Products and evidence of
licenses for Products the Customer acquired from a third party, hosts, sublicenses, or distributes to
third parties.
b. Verifying process. Microsoft will notify Customer at least thirty (30) calendar days in advance of its
intent to verify Customer's compliance with the license terms for the Products Customer and its
Affiliates use or distribute. The independent auditor is also subject to confidentiality obligation. This
verification will take place during normal business hours and the auditor will make best efforts not to
interfere with Customer's operations, during the course of the audit.
c. Remedies for non-compliance. If verification reveals any use of Products without applicable license
rights, then within thirty (30) days, Customer must order sufficient licenses to cover its use. If such use
or distribution is determined to be in excess of Customer's existing licenses by 5% or more of the
audited environment(s) in the aggregate, then Customer must reimburse Microsoft for the costs
Microsoft incurred in obtaining the verification and acquire the necessary additional licenses at 125%
of the price, based on the then-current price list or the maximum allowed under applicable law, if less.
Microsoft does not waive its rights to enforce this agreement or to protect its intellectual property by
any other legal or contractual means.
d. Customer self-audit. Microsoft, at its sole discretion, may require Customer to conduct a self-audit,
subject to the non-compliance remedies as set forth herein.
Privacy.
a. Customer's privacy. Customer's privacy is important to Microsoft. Please read the Microsoft Privacy
Statement (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?Linkld=521839) as it describes the types of data
MicrosoftCustomerAgreementUSGovCommCloud(US)(ENG)(Oct2019)
Page 2 of 19
Microsoft collects from Customer and Customer's devices ("Data"), how Microsoft uses that Data, and
the legal bases Microsoft has to process that Data.
Confidentiality.
a. Confidential Information. "Confidential Information" is non-public information that is designated
"confidential" or that a reasonable person should understand is confidential, including, but not limited
to, Customer Data, the terms of this Agreement, and Customer's account authentication credentials.
Confidential Information does not include information that (1) becomes publicly available without a
breach of a confidentiality obligation; (2) the receiving party received lawfully from another source
without a confidentiality obligation; (3) is independently developed; or (4) is a comment or suggestion
volunteered about the other party's business, products or services.
b. Protection of Confidential Information. Each party will take reasonable steps to protect the other's
Confidential Information and will use the other party's Confidential Information only for purposes of
the parties' business relationship. Neither party will disclose Confidential Information to third parties,
except to its Representatives, and then only on a need-to-know basis under nondisclosure obligations
at least as protective as this Agreement. Each party remains responsible for the use of Confidential
Information by its Representatives and, in the event of discovery of any unauthorized use or
disclosure, must promptly notify the other party. The Online Services Terms may provide additional
terms regarding the disclosure and use of Customer Data.
c. Disclosure required by law. A party may disclose the other's Confidential Information if required by
law, but only after it notifies the other party (if legally permissible) to enable the other party to seek a
protective order.
d. Residual information. Neither party is required to restrict work assignments of its Representatives
who have had access to Confidential Information. Each party agrees that the use of information
retained in Representatives' unaided memories in the development or deployment of the parties'
respective products or services does not create liability under this Agreement or trade secret law, and
each party agrees to limit what it discloses to the other accordingly.
e. Duration of Confidentiality obligation. These obligations apply (1) for Customer Data, until it is
deleted from the Online Services; and (2) for all other Confidential Information, for a period of five
years after a party receives the Confidential Information.
Product warranties.
a. Limited warranties and remedies.
(1) Online Services. Microsoft warrants that each Online Service will perform in accordance with the
applicable SLA during Customer's use. Customer's sole remedies for breach of this warranty are
described in the SLA.
(2) Software. Microsoft warrants that the Software version that is current at the time Customer
acquired it will perform substantially as described in the applicable Product documentation for
one year from the date Customer acquires a license for that Product. If it does not, and Customer
notifies Microsoft within the warranty term, Microsoft will, at its option, (i) return the price
Customer paid for the Software license or a prorated portion of the applicable Subscription fee
for the Online Service (ii) repair or replace the Software.
The remedies above are Customer's sole remedies for breach of the warranties in this section.
Customer waives any warranty claims not made during the warranty period.
a. Exclusions. The warranties in this Agreement do not apply to problems caused by accident, abuse, or
Use inconsistent with this Agreement or applicable documentation, including failure to meet
minimum system requirements. These warranties do not apply to free, trial, preview, or prerelease
products, services or features, including Previews or to components of Products that Customer is
permitted to redistribute (each, a"Limited Offering").
MicrosoftCustomerAgreementUSGovCommCloud(US)(ENG)(Oct2019)
Page 3 of 19
b. Disclaimer. Except for the limited warranties above and subject to applicable law, Microsoft
provides no other warranties or conditions for Products and disclaims any other express,
implied or statutory warranties for Products, including warranties of quality, title, non-
infringement, merchantability, and fitness for a particular purpose.
Defense of third-party claims.
The parties will defend each other against the third-party claims described in this section and will pay the
amount of any resulting adverse final judgment or approved settlement, but only if the defending party is
promptly notified in writing of the claim and has the right to control the defense and any settlement of it.
The party being defended must provide the defending party with all requested assistance, information,
and authority. The defending party will reimburse the other party for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
it incurs in providing assistance. This section describes the parties' sole remedies and entire liability for
such claims.
a. By Microsoft. Microsoft will defend Customer against any third-party claim to the extent it alleges
that a Product made available by Microsoft for a fee and used within the scope of the license granted
under this Agreement (unmodified from the form provided by Microsoft and not combined with
anything else), misappropriates a trade secret or directly infringes a patent, copyright, trademark, or
other proprietary right of a third party. If Microsoft is unable to resolve a claim of misappropriation or
infringement, it may, at its option, either (1) modify or replace the Product with a functional
equivalent or (2) terminate Customer's license and refund any license fees (less depreciation for
perpetual licenses), including amounts paid in advance for unused consumption for any usage period
after the termination date. Microsoft will not be liable for any claims or damages due to Customer's
continued use of a Product after being notified to stop due to a third-party claim.
b. By Customer. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Customer will defend Microsoft and its
Affiliates against any third-party claim to the extent it alleges that: (1) any Customer Data or Non-
Microsoft Product hosted in an Online Service by Microsoft on Customer's behalf misappropriates a
trade secret or directly infringes a patent, copyright, trademark, or other proprietary right of a third
party; or (2) Customer's use of any Product, alone or in combination with anything else, violates the
law or harms a third party.
Limitation of liability.
For each Product, each party's maximum, aggregate liability to the other under this Agreement is limited
to direct damages finally awarded in an amount not to exceed the amounts Customer was required to pay
for the Products during the term of the applicable licenses, subject to the following:
(i) Subscriptions. For Products ordered on a subscription basis, Microsoft's maximum liability to
Customer for any incident giving rise to a claim will not exceed the amount Customer paid for the
Product during the 12 months before the incident.
(ii) Free Products and distributable code. For Product provided free of charge and code that Customer
is authorized to redistribute to third parties without separate payment to Microsoft, Microsoft's
liability is limited to direct damages finally awarded up to US$5,000.
(iii) Exclusions. In no event will either party be liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or
consequential damages, or loss of use, loss of profits, or interruption of business, however caused or
on any theory of liability.
(iv) Exceptions. No limitation or exclusions under this Agreement will apply to liability arising out of
either party's (1) confidentiality obligations (except for liability related to Customer Data, which will
remain subject to the limitations and exclusions above); (2) defense obligations; or (3) violation of the
other party's intellectual property rights.
Partners.
MicrosoftCustomerAgreementUSGovCommCloud(US)(ENG)(Oct2019)
Page 4 of 19
a. Selecting a Partner. Customer may authorize a Partner to place orders on Customer's behalf and
manage Customer's purchases by associating the Partner with its account. If the Partner's distribution
right is terminated, Customer must select an authorized replacement Partner or purchase directly
from Microsoft. Partners and other third parties are not agents of Microsoft and are not authorized to
enter into any agreement with Customer on behalf of Microsoft.
b. Partner Administrator privileges and access to Customer Data. If Customer purchases Online
Services from a Partner or chooses to provide a Partner with administrator privileges, that Partner will
be the primary administrator of the Online Services and will have administrative privileges and access
to Customer Data and Administrator Data. Customer consents to Microsoft and its Affiliates providing
the Partner with Customer Data and Administrator Data for purposes of provisioning, administering
and supporting (as applicable) the Online Services. Partner may process such data according to the
terms of Partner's agreement with Customer, and its privacy commitments may differ from
Microsoft's. Customer appoints Partner as its agent for purposes of providing and receiving notices
and other communications to and from Microsoft. Customer may terminate the Partner's
administrative privileges at any time.
c. Support and Professional Services. Customer's Partner will provide details on support services
available for Products purchased under this agreement. Support services may be performed by
Partner or its designee, which in some cases may be Microsoft. If Customer purchases Professional
Services under this agreement, the performance of those Professional Services will be subject to the
terms and conditions in the Use Rights.
Pricing and payment.
If Customer orders from a Partner, the Partner will set Customer's pricing and payment terms for that
order, and Customer will pay the amount due to the Partner. Pricing and payment terms related to orders
placed by Customer directly with Microsoft are set by Microsoft, and Customer will pay the amount due as
described in this section.
a. Payment method. Customer must provide a payment method or, if eligible, choose to be invoiced
for purchases made on its account. By providing Microsoft with a payment method, Customer (1)
consents to Microsoft's use of account information regarding the selected payment method provided
by the issuing bank or applicable payment network; (2) represents that it is authorized to use that
payment method and that any payment information it provides is true and accurate; (3) represents
that the payment method was established and is used primarily for commercial purposes and not for
personal, family or household use; and (4) authorizes Microsoft to charge Customer using that
payment method for orders under this Agreement.
b. Invoices. Microsoft may invoice eligible Customers. Customer's ability to elect payment by invoice is
subject to Microsoft's approval of Customer's financial condition. Customer authorizes Microsoft to
obtain information about Customer's financial condition, which may include credit reports, to assess
Customer's eligibility for invoicing. Unless the Customer's financial statements are publicly available,
Customer may be required to provide their balance sheet, profit and loss and cash flow statements to
Microsoft. Customer may be required to provide security in a form acceptable to Microsoft to be
eligible for invoicing. Microsoft may withdraw Customer's eligibility at any time and for any reason.
Customer must promptly notify Microsoft of any changes in its company name or location and of any
significant changes in the ownership, structure, or operational activities of the organization.
c. Invoice Payment terms. Each invoice will identify the amounts payable by Customer to Microsoft for
the period corresponding to the invoice. Customer will pay all amounts due within thirty (30) calendar
days following the invoice date.
d. Late Payment. Microsoft may, at its option, assess a late fee on any payments to Microsoft that are
more than fifteen (15) calendar days past due at a rate of two percent (2%) of the total amount
payable, calculated and payable monthly, or the highest amount allowed by law, if less.

e. Cancellation fee. If a subscription permits early termination and Customer cancels the subscription
before the end of the subscription or billing period, Customer may be charged a cancellation fee. For
Online Services, Microsoft (1) will not provide a refund in connection with cancellation of a
subscription if such cancellation occurs outside of the stated return period, and (2) reserves the right
to invoice Customer for any future scheduled billings for any subscription cancelled in such a manner;
cancellation terms may vary depending on the Product. Subject to Microsoft's discretion, Microsoft
will provide a refund for certain Online Services subscriptions and will forego its right to invoice future
scheduled billings.
f. Recurring Payments. For subscriptions that renew automatically, Customer authorizes Microsoft to
charge Customer's payment method periodically for each subscription or billing period until the
subscription is terminated. By authorizing recurring payments, Customer authorizes Microsoft to store
Customer's payment details and process such payments as either electronic debits or fund transfers,
or as electronic drafts from the designated bank account (in the case of automated clearing house or
similar debits), as charges to the designated card account (in the case of credit card or similar
payments) (collectively, "Electronic Payments"). If any payment is returned unpaid or if any credit card
or similar transaction is rejected or denied, Microsoft or its service providers reserve the right to
collect any applicable return item, rejection or insufficient funds fee to the maximum extent permitted
by applicable law and to process any such fees as an Electronic Payment or to invoice Customer for
the amount due.
g. Taxes. Microsoft prices exclude applicable taxes unless identified as "tax inclusive" and similar. If any
amounts are to be paid to Microsoft, Customer will also pay any applicable value added, goods and
services, sales, gross receipts, or other transaction taxes, fees, charges, or surcharges, or any
regulatory cost recovery surcharges or other transaction taxes, fees charges, or surcharges or any
regulatory cost recovery surcharges or similar amounts that are owed under this Agreement and that
Microsoft is permitted to collect from Customer. Customer will be responsible for any applicable
stamp taxes and for all other taxes that it is legally obligated to pay including any taxes that arise on
the distribution or provision of Products by Customer to its Affiliates. Microsoft will be responsible for
all taxes based upon its net income, gross receipts taxes imposed in lieu of taxes on income or profits,
and taxes on its property ownership.
If any taxes are required to be withheld on payments invoiced by Microsoft, Customer may deduct
such taxes from the amount owed and pay them to the appropriate taxing authority, but only if
Customer promptly provides Microsoft an official receipt for those withholdings and other documents
reasonably requested to allow Microsoft to claim a foreign tax credit or refund. Customer will ensure
that any taxes withheld are minimized to the extent possible under applicable law.
Term and termination.
a. Term. This Agreement is effective until terminated by a party, as described below.
b. Termination without cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement without cause on 60 days'

such officer and employee that any such unauthorized further disclosure of returns or return
information may also result in an award of civil damages against the officer or employee in an amount
not less than $1,000 with respect to each instance of unauthorized disclosure. These penalties are
prescribed by IRCs 7213 and 7431 and set forth at 26 CFR 301.6103(n)-1.
(2) Each officer or employee of any person to whom returns or return information is or may be disclosed

and 7431 and set forth at 26 CFR 301.6103(n)-1.
(3) Additionally, it is incumbent upon the contractor to inform its officers and employees of the penalties
for improper disclosure imposed by the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a. Specifically, 5 U.S.C.
552a(i)(1), which is made applicable to contractors by 5 U.S.C. 552a(m)(1), provides that any officer or
employee of a contractor, who by virtue of his/her employment or official position, has possession of
or access to agency records which contain individually identifiable information, the disclosure of
which is prohibited by the Privacy Act or regulations established thereunder, and who knowing that
disclosure of the specific material is prohibited, willfully discloses the material in any manner to any
person or agency not entitled to receive it, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and fined not more than
$5,000.

the agency's security policy and procedures for safeguarding IRS information. Contractors must

recertification must be documented and placed in the agency's files for review. As part of the
certification and at least annually afterwards, contractors must be advised of the provisions of IRCs
7431, 7213, and 7213A (see Exhibit 4, Sanctions for Unauthorized Disclosure, and Exhibit 5, Civil
Damages for Unauthorized Disclosure). The training provided before the initial certification and

annual certification, the contractor must sign, either with ink or electronic signature, a confidentiality
statement certifying their understanding of the security requirements.

The IRS and the Agency, with 24 hour notice, shall have the right to send its inspectors into the offices
and plants of the contractor to inspect facilities and operations performing any work with FTI under this
contract for compliance with requirements defined in IRS Publication 1075. The IRS' right of inspection
shall include the use of manual and/or automated scanning tools to perform compliance and vulnerability
assessments of information technology (IT) assets that access, store, process or transmit FTI. On the basis

AWS PUBLIC SECTOR ACCESS POLICY (STATE)
(Last Updated March 17, 2016)
This AWS Access Policy ("Access Policy") governs your access to and use of the Services (as defined below) of
Amazon Web Services, Inc. ("AWS") provided to you by your systems integrator, reseller, or services provider
("Provider"). It sets out the additional rules, conditions and restrictions that apply to you or the entity you
represent ("you") for use of the Services. In this Access Policy, "we", "us", or "our" means AWS and any of its
affiliates. Please see Section 10 for definitions of capitalized terms.
1. Use of the Services.
1.1 Generally. You are provided access to the Services by your Provider. Your use of and access to the Services
are governed by the agreement between you and Provider. This Access Policy supplements the terms of such
agreement and may updated by us from time to time. AWS Service Level Agreements do not apply to your use of
the Services. Your continued access to and use of the Services is conditioned on your compliance with all laws,
rules, regulations, policies and instructions applicable to your use of the Services, including the Policies.
1.2 Account Keys. Provider may provide you with AWS account keys which will allow you to directly access the
Services via Provider's account(s). We are not responsible for any activities that occur under these account keys,
regardless of whether the activities are undertaken by you, Provider or a third party (including your employees,
contractors or agents) and we are also not responsible for unauthorized access to the account.
1.3 Third Party Materials. Through the use of Provider's AWS account(s), you may have access to Third Party
Materials, such as software applications provided by third parties, which are made available directly to you by
other companies or individuals under separate terms and conditions, including separate fees and charges. Your use
of any Third Party Materials is at your sole risk.
2. Your Responsibilities.
2.1 Your Materials. You are solely responsible for the development, content, operation, maintenance, and use
of Your Materials with the Services. For example, you are solely responsible for:
(a) the technical operation of Your Materials, including ensuring that calls you make to any Service are
compatible with then-current application program interfaces for that Service;
(b) compliance of Your Materials with the Acceptable Use Policy, the other Policies, and the law;
(c) any claims relating to Your Materials;
(d) properly handling and processing notices sent to you (or any of your affiliates) by any person claiming that
Your Materials violate such person's rights, including notices pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act;
(e) any action that you permit, assist or facilitate any person or entity to take related to this Access Policy,
Your Materials or use of the Services; and
(f) End Users' use of Your Materials and the Services and ensuring that End Users comply with your obligations
under this Access Policy and that the terms of your agreement with each End User are consistent with this Access
Policy.
2.2 Other Security and Backup. You or Provider are solely responsible for properly configuring and using the
Services and taking steps to maintain appropriate security, protection and backup of Your Materials, including
using encryption technology to protect Your Materials from unauthorized access and routinely archiving Your
Materials.
2.3 End User Violations. If you become aware of any violation of your obligations under this Access Policy by
an End User, you will immediately terminate such End User's access to Your Materials and the Services.
3. Service Interruption.
3.1 General. We may suspend the AWS account(s) through which you access the Services immediately if we
determine your or an End User's use of the Services (i) violates the terms of this Access Policy (including the
Acceptable Use Policy or Service Terms); (ii) poses a security risk to the Services or any other AWS customer, (iii)
may harm our systems or the systems or Materials of any other AWS customer; or (iv) may subject us to liability as
a result of any of the foregoing. We will provide notice of any suspension as soon as practicable to Provider, who is
solely responsible for providing any notices to you under your agreement with them.
3.2 Scope of Interruption. To the extent practicable, we will (i) suspend your right to access or use only those
instances, data, or portions of the Services that caused the suspension, and (ii) limit the suspension to those
accounts that caused the suspension. If commercially feasible, access to the Services will be restored once the
conditions or circumstances giving rise to the suspension have been removed or corrected. Nothing in this Section
3 will operate to limit your rights or remedies otherwise available to you against Provider under your agreement
with them or applicable law.
4. Proprietary Rights.
4.1 Services. As between you and us, we or our licensors own and reserve all right, title, and interest in and to
the Services. You have the right to use the Services solely as a licensee of Provider in accordance with this Access
Policy and the agreement between you and Provider. We have no obligation to provide the Service to you under
this Access Policy, so you must look exclusively to Provider and your agreement with Provider regarding such
obligation. Except as expressly provided in this Section 4, you obtain no rights to the Services, the AWS Materials
or any Third Party Materials.
4.2 Materials. As a part of the Services, you may have access to AWS Materials and Third Party Materials,

any necessary approvals for the download and use of such materials.

Services are conditioned on your continued compliance with this Access Policy, and you will immediately
discontinue your use of the Services if you cannot comply with this Access Policy. You will not assert, nor will you
authorize, assist, or encourage any third party to assert, against us or any of our customers, vendors, business
partners, or licensors, any patent infringement or other intellectual property infringement claim regarding any
Services or AWS Materials that you have used.

harmless us, our licensors and each of our respective employees, officers, directors, and representatives from and

applications, content or processes, including any claim involving alleged infringement or misappropriation of third-
