Hotel is relying upon Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska’s nightly use of the Room Night Commitment and, if applicable, the Minimum Banquet Food and Beverage Revenue $19,000.00.

Additionally, at the conclusion of the Event, if the actual banquet food and beverage revenue is less than the Minimum
Banquet Food and Beverage Revenue, one hundred percent (100%) of the difference will be posted to the Master Account.
These charges represent a reasonable effort on behalf of the Hotel to establish its loss prospectively and shall be due as liquidated damages.
MINIMUM BANQUET FOOD AND BEVERAGE REVENUE REQUIREMENT
Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska agrees to a minimum banquet food and beverage revenue of $19,000.00, exclusive of tax and service charge (the “Minimum Banquet Food and Beverage Revenue”). Hotel will confirm the food and beverage prices 1 month prior to Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska’s arrival date.
CANCELLATION
In the event of a group cancellation occurring 0 to 3 business days prior to arrival, liquidated damages in the amount of one hundred percent (100%) of the Room Night Commitment, one hundred percent (100%) of the Minimum Banquet Food and
Beverage Revenue, and Total Meeting Room Rental will be due, plus applicable taxes.
In the event of a group cancellation occurring 4 business days to 90 days prior to arrival, liquidated damages in the amount of ninety percent (90%) of the Room Night Commitment and one hundred percent (100%) of the Minimum Banquet Food and Beverage Revenue, and Total Meeting Room Rental will be due, plus applicable taxes.
In the event of a group cancellation occurring 91 to 180 days prior to arrival, liquidated damages in the amount of eighty percent (80%) of the Room Night Commitment and eighty percent (80%) of the Minimum Banquet Food and Beverage

The ability to terminate this
Agreement without liability pursuant to this paragraph is conditioned upon delivery of written notice to the other party setting forth the basis for such termination as soon as reasonably practical - but in no event longer than ten (10) days -after learning of such basis.

Regents of the University of Nebraska agree to cooperate with each other to ensure compliance with such laws.
CHANGES, ADDITIONS, STIPULATIONS, OR LINING OUT

Page 5 of 6 Version 1.0 such provisions shall be binding upon each contractor, subcontractor or vendor performing services or providing materials relating to this Agreement and the services provided pursuant to the terms hereof.
PRIVACY
Marriott International, Inc. (“Marriott”) is committed to complying with obligations applicable to Marriott under applicable privacy and data protection laws, including to the extent applicable EU data protection laws. Hotel shall comply with the then-current Marriott Group Global Privacy Statement (the “Privacy Statement,” currently available at http://www.marriott.com/about/privacy.mi) with respect to any personal data received under this Agreement.
Without limiting the foregoing obligation, Hotel has implemented measures designed to: (1) provide notice to individuals about its collection and use of their personal data, including through the Privacy Statement; (2) use such personal data only for legitimate business purposes; (3) provide means by which individuals may request to review, correct, update, suppress, restrict or delete or port their personal data, consistent with applicable law; (4) require any service providers with whom personal data is shared to protect the confidentiality and security of such data; and (5) use technical and organizational measures to protect personal data within its organization against unauthorized or unlawful access, acquisition, use, disclosure, loss, or alteration.
Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska will obtain all necessary rights and permissions prior to providing any personal data to Hotel, including all rights and permissions required for Hotel, Hotel affiliates, and service providers to use and transfer the personal data to locations both within and outside the point of collection (including to the United States) in accordance with Hotel’s privacy statement and applicable law. Notwithstanding any other provision, Hotel may use an individual’s own personal data to the extent directed by, consented to or requested by such individual.
IN-HOUSE EQUIPMENT
Hotel will provide, at no charge, a reasonable amount of meeting equipment (for example, chairs, tables, etc.). These complimentary arrangements do not include special setups or extraordinary formats that would deplete Hotel’s present in-house equipment to the point of requiring rental of an additional supply to accommodate Board of Regents of the
University of Nebraska’s needs. If such special setups or extraordinary formats are requested, Hotel will present Board of
Regents of the University of Nebraska two (2) alternatives: (1) charging Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska the rental cost for additional equipment, or (2) changing the extraordinary setup to a standard format, avoiding the additional cost.
UNATTENDED ITEMS/ADDITIONAL SECURITY
The Hotel cannot ensure the security of items left unattended in function rooms. Special arrangements may be made with the Hotel for securing a limited number of valuable items. If Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska requires additional security with respect to such items or for any other reason, the Hotel will assist in making these arrangements.
All security personnel to be utilized during the Event are subject to Hotel approval.
USE OF OUTSIDE VENDORS
If Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska wishes to hire outside vendors to provide any goods or services at Hotel during the Event, Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska must notify Hotel of the specific goods or services to be provided and provide sufficient advance notice to the Hotel so that the Hotel can (i) determine, in Hotel’s sole discretion, whether such vendor must provide Hotel, in form and amount reasonably satisfactory to Hotel, an indemnification agreement and proof of adequate insurance, and (ii) approve, using reasonable judgment, the selection of the outside vendor and the goods or services to be provided by such outside vendor to Board of Regents of the University of
Nebraska, taking into consideration: (a) whether Hotel offers such goods and services; (b) the risk level posed by certain activities; and (c) the safety and well-being of guests at Hotel.
PERFORMANCE LICENSES
Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska will be solely responsible for obtaining any necessary licenses or permission to perform, broadcast, transmit, or display any copyrighted works (including without limitation, music, audio, or video recordings, art, etc.) that Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska may use or request to be used at the
Hotel.
ACCEPTANCE
When presented by the Hotel to Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska, this document is an invitation by the
Hotel to Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska to make an offer. Upon signature by Board of Regents of the
University of Nebraska, this document will be an offer by Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska. Only upon signature of this document by all parties will this document constitute a binding agreement. Unless the Hotel otherwise https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/SER-CG6QzAUg2xQpIWyIbY
Page 6 of 6 Version 1.0 notifies Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska at any time prior to Board of Regents of the University of
Nebraska’s execution of this document, the outlined format and dates will be held by the Hotel for Board of Regents of the
University of Nebraska on a first-option basis until November 22nd, 2024. If Board of Regents of the University of
Nebraska cannot make a commitment prior to that date, this invitation to offer will revert to a second-option basis or, at the Hotel’s option, the arrangements will be released, in which case neither party will have any further obligations.

Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure
ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, NU Contracts+Ariba (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the DocuSign system.
Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to this Electronic Record and Signature
Disclosure (ERSD), please confirm your agreement by selecting the check-box next to ‘I agree to use electronic records and signatures’ before clicking ‘CONTINUE’ within the DocuSign system.
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available electronically to you by us. You will have the ability to download and print documents we send to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you elect to create a DocuSign account, you may access the documents for a limited period of time
(usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a
$0.00 per-page fee. You may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format, and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such paper notices or disclosures. Further, you will no longer be able to use the DocuSign system to receive required notices and consents electronically from us or to sign electronically documents from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure created on: 5/16/2023 6:53:28 PM Parties agreed to: Sarah Kouba, Michael Hrncirik, Melody Stark
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide electronically to you through the DocuSign system all required notices, disclosures, authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or made available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given
us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures electronically from us.

We do not require any other information from you to change your email address.
If you created a DocuSign account, you may update it with your new email address through your account preferences.
To request paper copies from NU Contracts+Ariba
To request delivery from us of paper copies of the notices and disclosures previously provided by us to you electronically, you must send us an email to richard.horner@nebraska.edu and in the body of such request you must state your email address, full name, mailing address, and telephone number. We will bill you for any fees at that time, if any.
To withdraw your consent with NU Contracts+Ariba
To inform us that you no longer wish to receive future notices and disclosures in electronic format you may:
i. decline to sign a document from within your signing session, and on the subsequent page, select the check-box indicating you wish to withdraw your consent, or you may;
ii. send us an email to richard.horner@nebraska.edu and in the body of such request you must state your email, full name, mailing address, and telephone number. We do not need any other information from you to withdraw consent.. The consequences of your withdrawing consent for online documents will be that transactions may take a longer time to process..

Further, if you consent to receiving notices and disclosures exclusively in electronic format as described herein, then select the check-box next to ‘I agree to use electronic records and signatures’ before clicking ‘CONTINUE’ within the DocuSign system.
By selecting the check-box next to ‘I agree to use electronic records and signatures’, you confirm that:
