About this file
This is an Anti-Discrimination Against Israel Act Certification Exhibit required by the State of Missouri for the Missouri Department of Transportation Southwest District's procurement of polypropylene culvert pipes. Pursuant to Section 34.600, RSMo, vendors must certify their compliance status regarding boycotts of Israel, Israeli businesses, or entities conducting business in Israel. The certification requirement applies to all contracts except those with a total potential value below $100,000 or contractors with fewer than ten employees. Vendors must complete one of three certification boxes based on their organizational status: Box A for non-company entities, Box B for companies with fewer than ten employees, or Box C for companies with ten or more employees. Companies completing Box C must certify they are not currently engaged in a boycott of Israeli goods or services and commit to maintaining compliance throughout the contract duration.
The certification serves as a mandatory contractual compliance requirement with no exceptions for specific pricing structures or project types. Vendors must submit the completed certification prior to contract award. The exhibit defines "company" broadly to include for-profit and not-for-profit organizations, corporations, partnerships, and other business entities, including subsidiaries and affiliates. Companies with fewer than ten employees or entities that do not meet the definition of "company" are exempt from the substantive boycott certification but must agree to comply if their status changes during contract performance. The statute recognizes that a company's public statements regarding boycott participation constitute conclusive evidence of non-compliance, though other factors may also establish participation in boycotts of Israel.

EXHIBIT M
ANTI-DISCRIMINATION AGAINST ISRAEL ACT CERTIFICATION
Statutory Requirement: Section 34.600, RSMo, precludes entering into a contract with a company to acquire products and/or services “unless the contract includes a written certification that the company is not currently engaged in and shall not, for the duration of the contract, engage in a boycott of goods or services from the State of Israel; companies doing business in or with Israel or authorized by, licensed by, or organized under the laws of the State of Israel; or persons or entities doing business in the State of Israel.”
Exceptions: The statute provides two exceptions for this certification: 1) “contracts with a total potential value of less than one hundred thousand dollars” or 2) “contractors with fewer than ten employees.” Therefore the following certification is required prior to any contract award.
Section 34.600, RSMo, defines the following terms:
Company - any for-profit or not-for-profit organization, association, corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, limited liability company, or other entity or business association, including all wholly-owned subsidiaries, majority-owned subsidiaries, parent companies, or affiliates of those entities or business associations.
Boycott Israel and Boycott of the State of Israel - engaging in refusals to deal, terminating business activities, or other actions to discriminate against, inflict economic harm, or otherwise limit commercial relations specifically with the State of Israel; companies doing business in or with Israel or authorized by, licensed by, or organized under the laws of the State of Israel; or persons or entities doing business in the State of Israel, that are all intended to support a boycott of the State of Israel. A company’s statement that it is participating in boycotts of the State of Israel; companies doing business in or with Israel or authorized by, licensed by, or organized under the laws of the State of Israel; or persons or entities doing business in the State of Israel, or that it has taken the boycott action at the request, in compliance with, or in furtherance of calls for a boycott of the State of Israel; companies doing business in or with Israel or authorized by, licensed by, or organized under the laws of the State of Israel; or persons or entities doing business in the State of Israel shall be considered to be conclusive evidence that a company is participating in a boycott of the State of Israel; companies doing business in or with Israel or authorized by, licensed by, or organized under the laws of the State of Israel; or persons or entities doing business in the State of Israel; provided, however that a company that has made no such statement may still be considered to be participating in a boycott of the State of Israel; companies doing business in or with Israel or authorized by, licensed by, or organized under the laws of the State of Israel; or persons or entities doing business in the State of Israel if other factors warrant such a conclusion.
Certification: The vendor must therefore certify their current status by completing either Box A, Box B, or Box C on the next page of this Exhibit.
| BOX A: | To be completed by any vendor that does not meet the definition of “company” above, hereinafter referred to as “Non-Company.” | |
| BOX B: | To be completed by a vendor that meets the definition of “Company” but has less than ten employees. | |
| BOX C: | To be completed by a vendor that meets the definition of “Company” and has ten or more employees. |
