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.

University shall have no further obligations under the Agreement.

16. Compliance. Supplier and its employees and agents will comply with all laws, ordinances, codes, rules, regulations, and licensing requirements that are applicable to the conduct of its business, including those of federal, state, and local agencies having jurisdiction and/or authority, as well as applicable

17. Insurance. Supplier shall at its own expense obtain and maintain throughout the term of the

Agreement general commercial liability insurance against claims for bodily injury, death, and property damage with limits of not less than $1,000,000.00 per occurrence, and $3,000,000.00 general aggregate to cover such liability caused by, or arising out of, activities of Supplier and its agents and/or employees while engaged in or preparing for the provision of the goods or services provided under the Agreement. If the goods or services include providing technology services, software, or support, Supplier shall obtain and maintain cyber liability insurance coverage of not less than $10,000,000.00 per occurrence and in the aggregate to cover such liability resulting or arising from acts, errors, or omissions in rendering such

Revised: 160425 technology services, software, or support. 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.

18. 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.

19. 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 effective date 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 the provision of advance written notice to University. Supplier shall be entitled to receive just and equitable compensation for any satisfactory 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.

20. 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.

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.
