Addendum is incorporated into the Agreement by this reference. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Addendum and the Agreement, the terms of this Addendum shall prevail.
2. Assignment. The Agreement is non-assignable and non-transferrable unless agreed to in writing by the parties. Any attempt by either party to assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the written agreement of the other party shall be void.

If any partners, directors, officers, employees, licensees, subcontractors, personnel, or agents of Supplier become excluded from federal health care program participation, such individual shall be removed from participating in the Agreement immediately.

8. Taxpayer Transparency Act. Under Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 84-602.01 to 84-602.04, University is required to provide the Nebraska Department of Administrative Services with a copy of each contract that is a basis for an expenditure of state funds, including any amendments and documents incorporated by reference in the contract.

It shall be the sole responsibility of Supplier (a) to notify University of any requested redactions to the Agreement, any amendment to the Agreement, and any document incorporated by reference into the Agreement and (b) to indicate the legal basis for such requested redactions at the time of execution thereof. In addition, Supplier shall defend any challenge to such redactions at its own expense. Supplier’s failure to request redactions to any contracts or documents released by University under this section shall constitute a complete waiver of any and all claims for damages caused by any such release.
9. Public Records. Under Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 84-712 to 84-712.09, information or records of or belonging to University regarding, related to, or part of the Agreement will be open to public inspection and copying unless exempted from disclosure in accordance with University’s interpretation and application of applicable law.

Supplier’s failure to request redactions to any information or records released by University under this section shall constitute a complete waiver of any and all claims for damages caused by any such release.
10. Nondiscrimination. Neither Supplier nor any of its subcontractors shall discriminate against any employee, or applicant for employment to be employed in the performance of the Agreement, with respect to hire, tenure, terms, conditions, or privilege of employment because of the race, color, religion, sex, disability, or national origin of the employee or applicant in accordance with the Nebraska Fair Employment
Practice Act (Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 48-1101 to 48-1125).
11. Logos or University Marks. Supplier shall not use or display any University campus name, logo, trademark, service mark (individually a “Mark” and collectively the “Marks”) and/or other indicia designated by University as a source identifier, unless expressly authorized in writing by University. Any unauthorized use of University Marks is expressly prohibited. Supplier shall not use University’s name in any manner that acts as an endorsement or is an appearance of any endorsement in any promotion, advertisement, solicitation, or other communication, especially as it relates to Supplier’s business.

Supplier under the Agreement. University may participate directly or through an appointed representative in order to verify that the services related to the Agreement have been performed in accordance with the procedures indicated.

Revised: 160425
13. Purchase Order Requirement. A purchase order shall be issued by University to Supplier for payment in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. All invoice(s) submitted by Supplier shall make reference to the appropriate purchase order number to be eligible for payment.
14. Conflict of Interest. Supplier certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that (a) there is no unresolved actual or potential conflict of interest related to the Agreement and (b), if Supplier is a University employee, immediate family member of a University employee, or business associated with a University employee and the Agreement is valued at $2,000 or more, Supplier has, prior to execution of the
Agreement, provided written notification to the vice president for business and finance or relevant vice chancellor for business and finance, as applicable, of Supplier’s status as, relation to, or association with a
University employee and of the Agreement. If an actual or potential conflict of interest related to the
Agreement arises during the Term, Supplier shall provide to the vice president for business and finance or relevant vice chancellor for business and finance, as applicable, a written disclosure statement that describes all relevant information concerning the actual or potential conflict of interest.

Upon request by University, Supplier shall furnish to University certificates of insurance evidencing such insurance is effective prior to commencement of work under the
Agreement. By requiring such minimum insurance, University shall not be deemed or construed to have assessed the risk or limited the liability that may be applicable to Supplier under the Agreement. Supplier shall assess its own risks and, if it deems appropriate, maintain higher limits or broader coverages. Supplier shall, upon request, include University as an additional insured on its general liability insurance policy on a primary and non-contributory basis. Supplier is not relieved of any liability or other obligations assumed or pursuant to the Agreement by reason of its failure to obtain or maintain insurance in sufficient amounts, duration, or types.
17. Notice. Any notice required or permitted to be given under the Agreement shall be in writing, sent via certified mail or hand delivery, effective when received, and delivered to the addresses provided on the signature page of this Addendum.
18. Unavailability of Funding. Due to possible future reductions in state and/or federal funds, University cannot guarantee the continued availability of funding of the Agreement notwithstanding the consideration contained within the Agreement. In the event funds to finance the Agreement become unavailable, either in full or in part, due to such reductions, University may terminate the Agreement or reduce the consideration upon notice in writing to Supplier.. Said notice shall be delivered by certified mail
(return receipt requested) or in person (with proof of delivery). University shall be the final authority as to the availability of funds. The effective date of such termination or reduction in consideration shall be the actual date of receipt of notice of the elimination or reduction of funding. In the event of a reduction in consideration, Supplier may cancel the Agreement as of the effective date of the proposed reduction upon
Revised: 160425 the provision of advance written notice to University. Supplier shall be entitled to receive just and equitable compensation for any work performed up to the effective date of the termination. In the event of unavailability of funding, University shall not be liable for any penalty, expense, or liability, or for general, special, incidental, consequential, or other damages resulting therefrom.
19. No Personal Liability. In no event shall any regent, official, officer, employee, agent, or student of
University be personally liable or responsible for any representation, statement, covenant, warranty, or obligation contained in, or made in connection with, the Agreement, express or implied.
20. Foreign Adversary Certification. The terms in this section defined in Neb. Rev. Stat. § 73-903 shall have the meaning defined therein. If the Agreement is for a technology-related product or service and no exception set forth in Neb. Rev. Stat. § 73-906(2) applies, Supplier certifies that it is not a scrutinized company, it will not subcontract with any scrutinized company for any aspect of performance of the
Agreement, and any products or services provided under the Agreement do not originate with a scrutinized company. The certification set forth in this section shall be an ongoing certification during the term of the
Agreement and Supplier shall immediately notify University of any change in the status of the certification set forth in this section.

Gratuity & Service Charge: The combined gratuity and service charge that is in effect on the day of Group’s Event will be added to Group’s Master
Account. Currently, the combined charge is equal to 22% of the food and beverage total. A portion of this combined charge (currently 14%) is a gratuity and will be fully distributed to servers, and where applicable, bussers and/or bartenders assigned to the Event. The remainder of the combined charge (currently 8%) is a service charge that is not a gratuity and is the property of Hotel to cover discretionary and administrative costs of Group’s Event. Hotel will endeavor to notify Group in advance of Group’s Event of any increases to the combined charge should different gratuity and/or service charge amounts be in effect on the day of Group’s Event.
Meet with Purpose: Hilton’s Meet with Purpose program provides opportunities for groups to host sustainable meetings. Prior to the Event, Group may request that the Hotel run Hilton’s proprietary “Meeting Calculator Report” that uses the number of Event days, attendees, meals, room nights, and total amount of contracted meeting and function space, along with the Hotel’s specific environmental measurements, to estimate carbon emissions, energy use, water use, and waste that will be produced during the Event. The Hotel can then use these metrics to provide Group with ways to reduce the environmental footprint of the Event that align with Group’s goals and values such as climate conscious menus, waste reduction strategies, incorporating a social impact event in the Hotel’s local community, and/or food donation opportunities (where legally allowable).
Summary of Revenue Anticipated by Hotel from this Agreement: For Group’s information and guidance, the following chart illustrates the total potential value of Group’s Event. The Hotel has offered the negotiated group room rates, meeting room inventory and other concessions in this Agreement based upon the total revenue contracted, as well as additional revenue from providing additional services to Group and Group’s attendees at additional charge.
Any requests for additional sleeping rooms, meeting rooms, function space and/or food and beverage to be added after Agreement signing will be subject to availability, and agreed upon changes would be confirmed in a written amendment to this Agreement signed by both parties.

STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Method of Reservations: Via a rooming list. Hilton offers direct download into Hotel’s reservation system using RAPID!. Group’s designated Event Manager will send Group an Excel template to create Group’s rooming list. Group’s final rooming list must be received on or before the Cut-Off Date; OR by Group directly on Hilton.com. All published housing information on Group’s website or registration materials must be reviewed by the Hotel to ensure rate, date, Cut-Off Date, and Hotel specific information is correct.
Cut-Off Date: In order to assign specific room types to Group’s attendees, each sleeping room in the Room Block must be confirmed in the manner described below no later than February 20, 2026. This date will be known as the “Cut-Off Date.” After the Cut-Off Date, the Hotel will continue to hold any rooms in Group’s Room Block not assigned to a specific attendee for Group if Group guarantees payment of such rooms to the Master Account. If Group has not prepaid such rooms or guaranteed such rooms (but only if Group has established Master Account billing privileges), Group agrees that
Hotel may offer unused sleeping rooms held in Group’s Room Block to other customers to reduce Hotel’s losses. Group agrees that the release of rooms will not affect the enforceability of this Agreement or Group’s obligation to pay for unsold rooms in Group’s Room Block. Advance payments will be refunded by the Hotel after Group’s Event dates if rooms Group paid for in advance were later paid for by Group’s attendees. Confirmation of rooms after the Cut-
Off Date will only be accepted based on availability of contracted room type(s) and at the Hotel’s prevailing rates.
Guest Payment Arrangements: Room and tax will be charged to Group’s Master Account. Incidental charges will be charged to Group’s Master Account.
If Group submits a rooming list with reservations that will be paid for by Group, such reservations will be considered guaranteed for the full length of stay unless the reservations are cancelled by Group or the guest no later than 2 days in advance of arrival. Early departure charges will be applied to Group’s Master Account for guests guaranteed by Group’s rooming list that depart early.
Individual Guest Deposits/Confirmation: To confirm a sleeping room within the Room Block, the sleeping room must be secured with a valid credit card provided either by Group or the guest attending the Event, Checks and major credit cards are acceptable to establish prepayment. All credit cards used to prepay the room deposit may be charged immediately. Should Group secure sleeping rooms on behalf of Group’s guests with Group’s credit card, Group’s attendees may thereafter provide their own credit card information for their own sleeping rooms. Group’s advance payments and deposits will either be refunded by Hotel to Group within 30 days after completion of Group’s Event if sleeping rooms Group paid for in advance were later paid for by
Group’s attendees or, at Hotel’s election, credited to Group’s Master Account. The Hotel will deduct any collected nonrefundable prepayment fees from the amount Group may owe as sleeping room performance damages or cancellation damages (if applicable).
Check-In/Out Time: Currently, the Hotel’s check-in time is 3:00 PM, and check-out time is 11:00 AM (subject to change without notice). All guests arriving before check-in time will be accommodated as rooms become available. The Hotel can arrange to check baggage for those arriving early when rooms are unavailable and for guests attending functions on departure day.

Full details and rules regarding the Event Planner Program are available by visiting www.hilton.com. Group agrees to take full responsibility for determining whether further disclosure of the Event Planner Bonus is required and for making such disclosure if it is required.
Food & Beverage Guarantees and Timeline: In order for Hotel to deliver on Group’s expectations for a successful Event, it is critical for Group to provide timely and complete information to the Hotel. So that the Hotel may make appropriate plans for purchasing and preparing product, as well as properly scheduling staff, the following mandatory timeline relates to final menus and program meal functions:
TIMELINE Action
Menu Prices Set by Hotel
90 days prior to the Event
At that time, Hotel will confirm in writing Group’s menu prices for catered food and beverage functions.
“F&B Cut-Off Date”
45 days prior to the Event
No later than the F&B Cut-Off Date, Group must submit the final agenda with detailed daily room set specifications, final catered menu selections and the updated anticipated attendance for all scheduled catered food functions. Upon review of Group’s final menus and Event requirements, Hotel will send Event Orders to Group to review all arrangements and prices. If Group does not advise Hotel of any changes on the Event Orders by the date requested by Hotel, Group agrees that the Event Orders will be considered accepted by Group as correct and Group will be billed accordingly.
Expected Number of Attendees
Due no later than Noon (local Hotel time), ten (10) business days prior to the first day of the Event
Group must submit the expected number of attendees for each catered food function. If for any reason
Group’s expected number of attendees are not submitted by the due date, Hotel will use the anticipated number of attendees listed in the Event Orders as the basis to determine the expected number of attendees.
Group may either reduce or increase the expected number of attendees when giving the final guaranteed number of attendees for each scheduled catered food function by up to 10% without incurring any liability to Hotel for additional costs or supplemental surcharges.
Final Guaranteed Number of
Attendees
Due no later than Noon (local Hotel time), three (3) business days prior to the first day of the Event
Group must inform Hotel of the final guaranteed number of attendees that will attend each of the catered food functions by contacting the Events/Catering Department by email or phone. Guarantees cannot be reduced after this time. Guarantees by text message cannot be accepted. Group will be charged the final guaranteed attendance or the number of attendees served, whichever is greater. Hotel will only prepare food for the final guaranteed number of attendees.
If Group reduced the expected number of attendees for a catered food function by more than 10%, then the Hotel may add a supplemental surcharge to the Group’s Master Account equal to the actual menu price per person as stated on the applicable Event Order (plus taxes and applicable gratuity and service charge) multiplied by the number of attendees reduced in excess of 10%.
http://www.hilton.com/
If Group increased the expected number of attendees for a catered food function by more than 10%, then the Hotel may add a supplemental surcharge equal to 25% of the meal cost to the Group’s Master Account to cover costs incurred by the Hotel for rush orders and overtime, and the menu offering may be based on Chef’s Selection and Group agrees to accept such substitutions. This also applies if there are any increases to the final guaranteed number of attendees within five (5) business days before the start of the Event or if
Group adds a new catered food function added within five (5) business days before the start of the Event.
Meeting Room Charges Based on Sleeping Room Performance: Should Group actualize less than 70% of the Total Anticipated Sleeping Room Revenue, then room rental charges of $2,000 will be added to the Group’s Master Account, in addition to any performance damages owed by Group under the Performance policies. This room rental charge based on performance is in addition to the room rental charges (if any) listed in the Schedule of Events.
Supplemental Surcharges: For Group’s information, supplemental surcharges are charges added to Group’s Master Account to pay for costs incurred by the Hotel in connection with additional equipment, administration, and staffing necessary for the Event. Supplemental surcharges will be solely retained by the Hotel and are not distributed to hourly or tipped employees. Examples include, but are not limited to, early sets, set-up charges, late end times, outdoor venues, resets, refreshes, cleaning and other services that require staffing above normal levels and/or services outside of the normal scope contracted and paid products and services.
Master Accounts: Group currently has credit with the Hotel and the Hotel will provide Master Account billing privileges for charges incurred during Group’s Event. Hotel would like to review this account with Group daily and have charges approved in writing by Group or Group’s designee to eliminate discrepancies, however failure on Group’s part to review charges while on site will not be a basis for disputing any charge.
If credit has not been approved for Group’s Event, then no later than 30 days in advance of arrival, or February 13, 2026, Group will either provide Hotel with a valid credit card to which all remaining estimated Master Account charges will be charged on that date, or provide payment of all remaining estimated Master Account charges by company check, certified check, or wire transfer card.
Hotel reserves the right to increase the amount of deposits and/or pre-payments should there be a negative change in Group’s financial status, even if credit had previously been approved.
If advance payments or deposits are not paid on a timely basis, the Hotel will have the right, at Hotel’s option, to consider the Agreement cancelled and Hotel will be entitled to cancellation damages as provided in this Agreement.
Hotel prefers that Group pay all deposits and Master Account charges by electronic funds (wire) transfer. Hotel will separately provide Hotel’s current banking details. If Group is paying by credit card, Hotel requests that Group provide Hotel with Group’s credit card information at the time of Group’s Event so that Hotel may charge the credit card account at departure. Hilton accepts American Express. If any charges are disputed, Group must provide an itemized list of disputed charges to Hotel so that Hotel may charge the undisputed charges to the credit card account immediately and the remainder will be charged upon resolution.
If payment of all undisputed charges is not received within thirty (30) days after Group’s receipt of the final invoice, a finance charge of 1.5% per month, or the maximum amount allowed by law, whichever is less, will accrue on the unpaid, undisputed amount, commencing on the date of receipt of the final invoice. Group must submit to Hotel an itemized list of any disputed charges within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the final invoice, or else all disputes are waived. If any charges are disputed, all undisputed amounts will be paid within thirty (30) days and the parties agree to work in good faith to resolve the disputed invoiced charges in a timely manner, and Group agree to pay the remainder immediately upon resolution of the dispute.
Sleeping Room Performance Policy: The Total Sleeping Room Nights Reserved under this Agreement will generate $13,275 in revenue for Hotel (“Total Anticipated Sleeping Room Revenue”). If Group does not use all of the sleeping rooms in Group’s Room Block, Group agrees that the Hotel will suffer damages because the Hotel will have lost the opportunity to offer Group’s unused rooms to others either individually or as part of another block and the Hotel will incur additional costs in attempting to resell inventory that…
