CONSTRUCTION -RELATED GOODS AND SERVICES AFFIRMATION
The Cooperative issued the BuyBoard Procurement and Construction -Related Goods and Services Advisory for Texas Members
("Advisory's, which provides information specifically relevant to the procurement of construction -related goods and services
by Texas Cooperative members. The Advisory, available at.buyboard.com/Vendor/Resources.aspx, provides an overview of
certain legal requirements that are potentially relevant to a Cooperative member's procurement of construction or
construction -related goods and services, including those for projects that may involve or require architecture, engineering or
independent testing services. A copy of the Advisory can also be provided upon request. Because many BuyBoard contracts
include goods or installation services that might be considered construction -related, Proposer must make this Construction
Related -Goods and Services Affirmation regardless of type of goods or services associated with this Proposal Invitation.
A contract awarded under this Proposal Invitation covers only the specific goods and/or services awarded by the Cooperative.
As explained in the Advisory ("Advisory's, Texas law prohibits the procurement of architecture or engineering
services through a purchasing cooperative. This Proposal Invitation and any Contract awarded thereunder
does not include such services. Architecture or engineering services must be procured by a Cooperative
member separately, in accordance with the Professional Services Procurement Act (Chapter 2254 of the Texas
Government Code) and other applicable law and local policy.
By signature on the Compliance Forms Signature Page, Proposer affirms that Proposer has obtained a copy of the Advisory,
has read and understands the Advisory, and is authorized by Proposer to make this affirmation. If Proposer sells construction -
related goods or services to a Cooperative member under a Contract awarded under this Proposal Invitation, Proposer will
comply with the Advisory and applicable legal requirements, make a good faith effort to make its Cooperative member
customers or potential Cooperative member customers aware of such requirements, and provide a Cooperative member with
a copy of the Advisory before accepting the member's Purchase Order, Member Construction Contract, or other agreement
for construction -related goods or services.

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

dispute shall lie in the federal district court of Travis County, Texas.

Cooperative, and that this Agreement does not take effect unless and until National Cooperative awards Vendor a Piggy -Back
Award and the BuyBoard Administrator notifies Vendor in writing of such Piggy -Back Award as provided for herein.

or partly from public funds with a company (excluding a sole proprietorship) that has 10 or more full-time employees
for goods or services unless the contract contains a written verification from the company that it: (1) does not
boycott Israel and will not boycott Israel during the term of the contract (TEX. GOV'T CODE Ch. 2271), (2) does not
boycott energy companies and will not boycott energy companies during the term of the contract (TEX. GOV'T

entity or firearm trade association (TEX. GOV'T CODE Ch. 2274). Accordingly, this certification form is included to
the extent required by law.
"Boycott Israel" means refusing to deal with, terminating business activities with, or otherwise taking any action that
is intended to penalize, inflict economic harm on, or limit commercial relations specifically with Israel, or with a
person or entity doing business in Israel or in an Israeli -controlled territory, but does not include an action made for
ordinary business purposes. TEX. GOV'T CODE §808.001(1).
"Boycott energy company" means, without an ordinary business purpose, refusing to deal with, terminating business
activities with, or otherwise taking any action that is intended to penalize, inflict economic harm on, or limit
commercial relations with a company because the company: (A) engages in the exploration, production, utilization,
transportation, sale, or manufacturing of fossil fuel -based energy and does not commit or pledge to meet
environmental standards beyond applicable federal and state law; or (B) does business with a company described
by Paragraph (A). TEX. GOV'T CODE §809.001(1).
"Discriminate against a firearm entity or firearm trade association" means, (A) with respect to the entity or
association, to: (i) refuse to engage in the trade of any goods or services with the entity or association based solely
on its status as a firearm entity or firearm trade association; (ii) refrain from continuing an existing business
relationship with the entity or association based solely on its status as a firearm entity or firearm trade association;
or (iii) terminate an existing business relationship with the entity or association based solely on its status as a
firearm entity or firearm trade association; and (B) does not include: (i) the established policies of a merchant, retail
seller, or platform that restrict or prohibit the listing or selling of ammunition, firearms, or firearm accessories; and (ii)
a company's refusal to engage in the trade of any goods or services, decision to refrain from continuing an existing
business relationship, or decision to terminate an existing business relationship: (aa) to comply with federal, state,
or local law, policy, or regulations or a directive by a regulatory agency; or (bb) for any traditional business reason
that is specific to the customer or potential customer and not based solely on an entity's or association's status as a
firearm entity or firearm trade association. TEX. GOV'T CODE §2274.001(3).
By signature on the Compliance Forms Signature Page, to the extent applicable, I certify and verify that Vendor
does not boycott Israel, boycott energy companies, or discriminate against a firearm entity or firearm trade
association and will not do so during the term of any contract awarded under this Proposal Invitation, that this
certification is true, complete and accurate, and that I am authorized by my company to make this certification.
