This document is a Contract Amendment (Amendment #09) for State Term Contract #002 for Cut Paper, involving the State of North Dakota, acting through its Office of Management and Budget and State Procurement Office, and Cole Paper, Inc. The amendment was dated March 18, 2022, and fully executed on March 23, 2022, with signatures from representatives of both the state and the contractor.

The contract originally covered the period from June 1, 2020 through May 31, 2021, with provisions to extend for up to four additional one-year renewal periods. This specific amendment exercises the option to renew the contract for its second one-year period, extending the contract term until May 31, 2023. All other existing terms and conditions of the original contract remain in effect. The amendment allows for continued procurement of cut paper services under the established state term contract, with the possibility of future renewals subject to mutual agreement between the state and the contractor.
