LEASE TYPES

c. Step Lease.

Orders for leased Products must specify the leasing type.

OPTION 1

STATEMENT

It is understood by all parties to this contract that orders issued under this SIN shall constitute a lease arrangement. Unless the Ordering Activity intends to obligate other than annual appropriations to fund the lease, the base period of the lease is from the date of the Product acceptance through September 30 of the fiscal year in which the order is placed.

Agencies are advised to follow the guidance provided in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 7.4 Product Lease or Purchase and OMB Circular A-11. Agencies are responsible for the obligation of funding consistent with all applicable legal principles when entering any lease arrangement.

1. FUNDING AND PERIODS OF LEASING ARRANGEMENTS

a. Annual Funding. When annually appropriated funds are cited on an order for leasing, the following applies:

i. The base period of an order for any lease executed by the Ordering Activity shall be for the duration of the fiscal year. All Ordering Activity renewal options under the lease shall be specified in the delivery order. All orders for leasing shall remain in effect through September 30 of the fiscal year or the planned expiration date of the lease, whichever is earlier, unless the Ordering Activity exercises its rights hereunder to acquire title to the Product prior to the planned expiration date or unless the Ordering Activity exercises its right to terminate under FAR

52.212-4. Orders under the lease shall not be deemed to obligate the succeeding fiscal year’s funds or to otherwise commit the Ordering Activity to a renewal.

ii. All orders for leasing shall automatically terminate on September 30, unless the Ordering Activity notifies the Contractor in writing thirty (30) calendar days prior to the expiration of such orders of the Ordering Activity’s intent to renew. Such notice to renew shall not bind the Ordering Activity. The Ordering Activity has the option to renew each year at the original rate in effect at the time the order is placed. This rate applies for the duration of the order. If the Ordering Activity exercises its option to renew, the renewal order, shall be issued within 15 days after funds become available for obligation by the Ordering Activity, or as specified in the initial order. No termination fees shall apply if the Ordering Activity does not exercise an option.

47QTCA23D00B9 Visit GSA 47QTCA23D00B9 Contract on immixGroup.com for contract information Page 10

iii. Crossing Fiscal Years Within Contract Period. Where an Ordering Activity has specific authority to cross fiscal years with annual appropriations, the Ordering Activity may place an order under this option to lease Product for a period up to the expiration of its period of appropriation availability, or twelve months, whichever occurs later, notwithstanding the intervening fiscal years.

2. DISCONTINUANCE AND TERMINATION

Notwithstanding any other provision relating to this SIN, the Ordering Activity may terminate Products leased under this agreement, at any time during a fiscal year in accordance with the termination provisions contained in FAR 52.212-4. (l) Termination for the Ordering Activity’s convenience, or (m) Termination for cause. Additionally, no termination for cost or fees shall be charged for non-renewal of an option.

OPTION 2

To the extent an Offeror wishes to propose alternative lease terms and conditions that provide for lower discounts/prices based on the Ordering Activity’s stated intent to fulfill the projected term of a lease including option years, while at the same time including separate charges for early end of the lease, the following terms apply. These terms address the timing and extent of the Ordering Activity’s financial obligation including any potential charges for the early end of the lease.

1. LEASING PRICE LIST NOTICE:

a. Contractors must include the following notice in their contract price list for SIN 532420L:

i. “The ordering activity is responsible for the obligation of funds consistent with applicable law.

Agencies are advised to review the lease terms and conditions contained in this price list prior to ordering and obligating funding for a lease.”

2. STATEMENT OF ORDERING ACTIVITY INTENT:

a. The Ordering Activity and the Contractor understand that a delivery order issued pursuant to this SIN is a lease arrangement and contemplates the use of the Product for the term of the lease specified in such delivery order (the “Lease Term”). In that regard, the Ordering Activity, as lessee, understands that the lease provisions contained herein and the rate established for the delivery order are premised on the Ordering Activity's intent to fulfill that agreement, including acquiring products for the period specified in the order. Each lease hereunder shall be initiated by a delivery order, which shall, either through a statement of work or other attachment, specify the Product being leased, and the required terms of the transaction.

b. Each Ordering Activity placing a delivery order under the terms of this option intends to exercise each renewal option and to extend the lease until completion of the Lease Term so long as the need of the Ordering Activity for the Product or functionally similar Product continues to exist, and funds are appropriated. The contractor may request information from the Ordering Activity concerning the essential use of the Products.

3. LEASE TERM:

a. The date on which the Ordering Activity accepts the Products is the Commencement Date of the lease.

b. The Contractor shall only deliver those items ordered that substantially conform to the requirements of this contract and the applicable Documentation. Therefore, Products delivered shall be deemed

47QTCA23D00B9 Visit GSA 47QTCA23D00B9 Contract on immixGroup.com for contract information Page 11 accepted upon delivery to Ordering Activity’s designated receiving facility. The Ordering Activity reserves the right to inspect or test any Product that has been delivered. The Ordering Activity may require repair or replacement of nonconforming Products at no increase in contract price. The Ordering Activity must exercise its post-acceptance rights (1) within the applicable warranty period; and (2) before any substantial change occurs in the condition of the Product, unless the change is due to a defect in the Product.

c. Any lease is executed by the Ordering Activity on the basis that the known requirement for such Product exceeds the initial base period of the delivery order, which is typically 12 months, or for the remainder of the fiscal year. Pursuant to FAR 32.703-3(b), delivery orders with options to renew that are funded by annual (fiscal year) appropriations may provide for initial base periods and option periods that cross fiscal years if the initial base period or each option period does not exceed a 12-month period. Defense agencies must also consider DOD FAR supplement (DFAR) 232.703-3(b) in determining whether to use cross fiscal year funding. This cross fiscal year authority does not apply to multi-year leases.

d. The total Lease Term will be specified in each delivery order, including any relevant renewal options of the Ordering Activity. All delivery orders, whether for the initial base period or renewal period, shall remain in effect through September 30 of the fiscal year (unless extended by statute), through any earlier expiration date specified in the delivery order, or until the Ordering Activity exercises its rights hereunder to acquire title to the Product prior to such expiration date. The Ordering Activity, at its discretion, may exercise each option to extend the term of the lease through the lease term. Renewal delivery orders shall not be issued for less than all the Product(s) set forth in the original delivery order.

Delivery orders under this SIN shall not be deemed to obligate succeeding fiscal year funds. The Ordering Activity shall provide the Contractor with written notice of exercise of each renewal option as soon as practicable. Notice requirements may be negotiated on an order-by-order basis.

e. Where an Ordering Activity’s specific appropriation or procurement authority provides for contracting beyond the fiscal year period, the Ordering Activity may place a delivery order for a period up to the expiration of the Lease Term, or to the expiration of the period of availability of the multi-year appropriation, or whatever is appropriate under the applicable circumstance.

4. LEASE TERMINATION:

a. The Ordering Activity must elect the Lease Term of the relevant delivery order. The Contractor (and assignee, if any) will rely on the Ordering Activity’s representation of its intent to fulfill the full Lease Term to determine the monthly lease payments calculated herein.

b. The Ordering Activity may terminate or not renew leases under this option at no cost, pursuant to a

Termination for Non-Appropriation as defined herein (see paragraph iii below). In any other event, the Ordering Activity’s contracting officer may either terminate the relevant delivery order for cause or Termination for Convenience in accordance with FAR 52.212-4 paragraphs (l) and (m).

c. The Termination for Convenience at the end of a fiscal year allows for separate charges for the early end of the lease (see paragraph iv below). In the event of termination for the convenience of the Ordering Activity, the Ordering Activity may be liable only up to the

d. amount beyond the order’s Termination Ceiling. Any termination charges calculated under the

Termination for Convenience clause must be determined or identified in the delivery order or in the lease agreement.

47QTCA23D00B9 Visit GSA 47QTCA23D00B9 Contract on immixGroup.com for contract information Page 12

e. Termination for Convenience of the Ordering Activity: Leases entered into under this option may not be terminated except by the Ordering Activity’s contracting office responsible for the delivery order in accordance with FAR 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions-Commercial Items, paragraph (l), Termination for Convenience of the Ordering Activity. The costs charged to the Ordering Activity as the result of any Termination for Convenience of the Ordering Activity must be reasonable and may not exceed the sum of the fiscal year’s payment obligations less payments made up to the date of termination plus the Termination Ceiling.

f. Termination for Non-Appropriation: The Ordering Activity reasonably believes that the bona fide need will exist for the entire Lease Term and corresponding funds in an amount sufficient to make all payment for the Lease Term will be available to the Ordering Activity. Therefore, it is unlikely that leases entered into under this option will terminate prior to the full Lease Term. Nevertheless, the Ordering Activity’s contracting officer may terminate or not renew leases at the end of any initial base period or option period under this paragraph if (a) it no longer has a bona fide need for the Product or functionally similar Product; or (b) there is a continuing need, but adequate funds have not been made available to the Ordering Activity in an amount sufficient to continue to make the lease payments. If this occurs, the Ordering Activity will promptly notify the Contractor, and the Product lease will be terminated at the end of the last fiscal year for which funds were appropriated. Substantiation to support a termination for non-appropriation shall be provided to the Contractor upon request.

g. Termination Charges: At the initiation of the lease, Termination Ceilings will be agreed upon between

Contractor and Ordering Activity for each year of the Lease Term. No claim will be accepted for future costs: supplies, maintenance, usage charges or interest expense beyond the date of termination. In accordance with the bona fide needs rule, all termination charges must reasonably represent the value the Ordering Activity received for the work performed based upon the shorter lease term. No Termination for Convenience costs will be associated with the expiration of the lease term.

h. At the order level, the Ordering Activity may, consistent with legal principles, negotiate lower monthly payments or rates based upon appropriate changes to the termination conditions in this section.

The Product shall remain in the possession of the Ordering Activity until the expiration of the lease. Any assignment, sale, bankruptcy, or other transfer of the leased Product by the Contractor will not relieve the Contractor of its obligations to the Ordering Activity and will not change the Ordering Activity’s duties or increase the burdens or risks imposed on the Ordering Activity.

COMMENCEMENT OF LEASE

The date on which the Ordering Activity accepts the products is the Commencement Date of the lease. Acceptance is as defined as set forth in Section 4c(ii) above, or as further specified in an order.

INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE

1. Installation and Maintenance, when applicable, normally are not included in the charge for leasing. The Contractor may require the Ordering Activity to obtain installation and maintenance services from a qualified source. The Ordering Activity may obtain installation and/or maintenance on the open market, from the Contractor’s schedule contract, or from other sources.

2. When installation and/or maintenance are ordered under this schedule to be performed by the Contractor, the payments, terms and conditions as stated in this contract apply. The rates and terms and conditions in effect at the time the order is issued shall apply during any subsequent renewal period of the lease. The maintenance rates and terms and conditions may be added to the lease payments with mutual agreement of the parties.

MONTHLY PAYMENTS

47QTCA23D00B9 Visit GSA 47QTCA23D00B9 Contract on immixGroup.com for contract information Page 14

1. Prior to the placement of an order under this Special Item Number, the Ordering Activity and the Contractor must agree on a “base value” for the Products to be leased. For Lease to Ownership (Capital Lease) the base value will be the contract purchase price (less any discounts). For Lease with Option to Own (Operating Lease), the base value will be the contract purchase price (less any discounts), less a mutually agreed upon residual value (pre-stated purchase option price at the conclusion of the lease) for the Products. The residual value will be used in the calculation of the original lease payment, lease extension payments, and the purchase option price.

2. To determine the initial lease term payment, the Contractor agrees to apply the negotiated lease factor to the agreed upon base value: 500 basis points.

3. For Example: Lease factor one (1) percent over the rate for the three-year (or other term) Treasury Bill (T-bill) at the most current U. S. Treasury auction.

4. The lease payment may be calculated by using a programmed business calculator or by using “rate” functions provided in commercial computer spreadsheets (e.g., Lotus 1-2-3, Excel).

5. For any lease extension, the extension lease payment will be based on the original residual value, in lieu of the purchase price. The Ordering Activity and the Contractor shall agree on a new residual value based on the estimated fair market price at the end of the extension. The formula to determine the lease payment will be that in 6.b. above.

6. The purchase option price will be the fair market value of the Product or payment will be based upon the unamortized principle, as shown on the payment schedule as of the last payment prior to date of transfer of ownership, whichever is less.

NOTE: At the order level, Ordering Activity may elect to obtain a lower rate for the lease by setting the purchase option price as either the fair market value of the Product or unamortized principle. The methodology for determining lump sum payments may be identified in the pricelist.

7. The point in time when monthly rates are established is subject to negotiation and evaluation at the order level.

In the event the Ordering Activity desires, at any time, to acquire title to Product leased hereunder, the Ordering Activity may make a one-time lump sum payment.

LEASE END/DISCONTINUANCE OPTIONS

1. Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, Termination for Convenience, or Termination for Non-Appropriation, the Ordering Activity will return the Product to the Contractor unless the Ordering Activity by 30 days written notice elects either:

a. to purchase the Product for the residual value of the Product, or

b. to extend the term of the Lease, as mutually agreed. To compute the lease payment, the residual value from the preceding lease shall be the initial value of the leased Product. A new residual value shall be negotiated for the extended lease and new lease payments shall be computed.

2. Relocation - The Ordering Activity may relocate Products to another location within the Ordering Activity’s facilities with prior written notice. No other transfer, including sublease, is permitted. Ordering Activity shall not
