<br />Addenda, Terms and Conditions
<br />PROPOSER AFFIDAVIT AND ASSURANCE OF COMPLIANCE
<br />I certify that I am the authorized representative of the Proposer submitting the foregoing Proposal with the legal authority to bind the
<br />Proposer to this Affidavit and Assurance of Compliance:
<br />1. The Proposer is submitting this Proposal under its full and complete legal name, and the Proposer legally exists in good standing in
<br />the jurisdiction of its residence.
<br />2. The Proposer warrants that the information provided in this Proposal is true, correct, and reliable for purposes of evaluation for
<br />contract award.
<br />3. The Proposer, including any person assisting with the creation of this Proposal, has arrived at this Proposal independently and the
<br />Proposal has been created without colluding with any other person, company, or parties that have or will submit a proposal under
<br />this solicitation; and the Proposal has in all respects been created fairly without any fraud or dishonesty. The Proposer has not
<br />directly or indirectly entered into any agreement or arrangement with any person or business in an effort to influence any part of
<br />this solicitation or operations of a resulting contract; and the Proposer has not taken any action in restraint of free trade or
<br />competitiveness in connection with this solicitation. Additionally, if Proposer has worked with a consultant on the Proposal, the
<br />consultant (an individual or a company) has not assisted any other entity that has submitted or will submit a proposal for this
<br />solicitation.
<br />4. To the best of its knowledge and belief, and except as otherwise disclosed in the Proposal, there are no relevant facts or
<br />circumstances which could give rise to an organizational conflict of interest. An organizational conflict of interest exists when a
<br />vendor has an unfair competitive advantage or the vendor's objectivity in performing the contract is, or might be, impaired.
<br />5. The contents of the Proposal have not been communicated by the Proposer or its employees or agents to any person not an
<br />employee or legally authorized agent of the Proposer and will not be communicated to any such persons prior to Due Date of this
<br />solicitation.
<br />6. If awarded a contract, the Proposer will provide to Sourcewell Participating Entities the equipment, products, and services in
<br />accordance with the terms, conditions, and scope of a resulting contract.
<br />7. The Proposer possesses, or will possess before delivering any equipment, products, or services, all applicable licenses or
<br />certifications necessary to deliver such equipment, products, or services under any resulting contract.
<br />8. The Proposer agrees to deliver equipment, products, and services through valid contracts, purchase orders, or means that are
<br />acceptable to Sourcewell Members. Unless otherwise agreed to, the Proposer must provide only new and first -quality products and
<br />related services to Sourcewell Members under an awarded Contract.
<br />9. The Proposer will comply with all applicable provisions of federal, state, and local laws, regulations, rules, and orders.
<br />10. The Proposer understands that Sourcewell will reject RFP proposals that are marked "confidential" (or "nonpublic," etc.), either
<br />substantially or in their entirety. Under Minnesota Statutes Section 13.591, subdivision 4, all proposals are considered nonpublic
<br />data until the evaluation is complete and a Contract is awarded. At that point, proposals become public data. Minnesota Statutes
<br />Section 13.37 permits only certain narrowly defined data to be considered a "trade secret," and thus nonpublic data under
<br />Minnesota's Data Practices Act.
<br />11. Proposer its employees, agents, and subcontractors are not:
<br />1. Included on the "Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons" list maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control
