SCHEDULE A – STATEMENT OF WORK

CONTRACT ACTIVITIES

Master Agreement (MA) No. 230000000956

Michigan Bureau of Elections - Ballot Drop Boxes

BACKGROUND

The Secretary of State is Michigan’s chief election officer; however, State of Michigan (SOM) elections are decentralized and administered at the local level. The Bureau of Elections (BOE) within the Michigan Department of State (MDOS) provides election oversight, monitoring, and other services to the local elections jurisdictions, consisting of 83 county clerks, 280 city clerks and 1,240 township clerks.

Michigan voters passed Proposal 2 in the November 2022 election. Among other things, Proposal 2 requires at least one state-funded, secure, accessible ballot drop box for every municipality regardless of the number of registered voters in that municipality. If the municipality has more than 15,000 voters, there must be at least one such ballot box, distributed equitably, for every 15,000 voters in the municipality.

Since some local jurisdictions already have ballot boxes, the estimated need will be for approximately 600~2,000 total boxes. However, no order quantities are guaranteed of any specific box or vendor.

MDOS seeks to contract with one or more vendors to provide ballot drop boxes. About 25%~35% of these ballot boxes must be delivered and installed or available for installation at local jurisdictions by mid-June 2023 for the August 2023 election. An additional 25%~35% must be delivered and installed by August 24, 2023, for the November 2023 election. The remainder of the ballot boxes must be delivered and installed before December 14, 2023. There may be subsequent orders as well.

SCOPE

1) Provide a catalog or pricing sheet of currently available ballot boxes that meet the requirements.

a) Include pricing for ballot boxes for either interior or outside locations, or both.

b) Include pricing for any peripheral equipment such as locking or security options, etc., if not included in the ballot box price.

2) An initial series of orders of ballot boxes in mid-2023 to meet the requirements of Proposal 2 for Michigan’s August 8, 2023, election.

a) For Proposal 2, local jurisdictions will select a style(s) and quantities of ballot boxes and provide their needs to BOE.

b) BOE will aggregate the quantities for each style and vendor and send to Procurement to make a collated order to the contractor(s). These orders will likely have a regular frequency of weekly/bi-weekly. The orders will have multiple “ship to” addresses. BOE will also provide contact information and local jurisdiction business hours for each jurisdiction.

Version 2022-4 2 of 31

c) Contractor will ship orders directly to each local jurisdiction and contact the jurisdiction as needed to arrange delivery times.

3) Vendor will invoice separately for each shipment to each local jurisdiction. Vendor must send all invoices to: sospaymentprocess@michigan.gov.

a) Vendor must send the name of the shipping company and tracking number to both BOE and to the local jurisdictions.

b) Vendor must have the shipping company contact the local jurisdiction to whom they are delivering with the expected date and time of delivery.

c) The shipping company must have the local jurisdiction sign for delivery.

4) BOE may make subsequent orders to fulfill Proposition 2’s requirements.

5) Provide the ability for local jurisdictions to directly purchase small quantities of ballot boxes for their needs outside of Proposal 2. These purchases will be ordered and paid for by the local jurisdiction (BOE will not be involved in these purchases, other than making the catalog of conforming boxes available).

6) Most jurisdictions are on municipal properties and are anticipated to install their own ballot boxes. However, bidder may provide pricing for optional on-site installation of ballot boxes if vendor is able to supply or subcontract for installation services.

Installation services will be paid by local jurisdictions.

Relationship of the Parties. The relationship between the parties is that of independent contractors. Contractor, its employees, and agents will not be considered employees of the State. No partnership or joint venture relationship is created by virtue of this Contract. Contractor, and not the State, is responsible for the payment of wages, benefits and taxes of Contractor’s employees and any subcontractors. Prior performance does not modify Contractor’s status as an independent contractor. Neither party has authority to contract for nor bind the other party in any manner whatsoever.

Intellectual Property Rights. If a Statement of Work requires Contractor to create any intellectual property, Contractor hereby acknowledges that the State is and will be the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title, and interest in the Contract Activities and all associated intellectual property rights, if any. Such Contract Activities are works made for hire as defined in Section 101 of the Copyright Act of 1976. To the extent any Contract Activities and related intellectual property do not qualify as works made for hire under the Copyright Act, Contractor will, and hereby does, immediately on its creation, assign, transfer and otherwise convey to the State, irrevocably and in perpetuity, throughout the universe, all right, title and interest in and to the Contract Activities, including all intellectual property rights therein.

Subcontracting. Contractor may not delegate any of its obligations under the Contract without the prior written approval of the State. Contractor must notify the State at least 90 calendar days before the proposed delegation and provide the State any information it requests to determine whether the delegation is in its best interest.

If approved, Contractor must: (a) be the sole point of contact regarding all contractual matters, including payment and charges for all Contract Activities; (b) make all payments to the subcontractor; and (c) incorporate the terms and conditions contained in this Contract in any subcontract with a subcontractor. Contractor remains responsible for the completion of the Contract Activities, compliance with the

Version 2022-4 19 of 31 terms of this Contract, and the acts and omissions of the subcontractor. The State, in its sole discretion, may require the replacement of any subcontractor.

Staffing. The State’s Contract Administrator may require Contractor to remove or reassign personnel providing services by providing a notice to Contractor.

Background Checks. Pursuant to Michigan law, all agencies subject to IRS Pub.

1075 are required to ask the Michigan State Police to perform fingerprint background checks on all employees, including Contractor and Subcontractor employees, who may have access to any database of information maintained by the federal government that contains confidential or personal information, including, but not limited to, federal tax information. Further, pursuant to Michigan law, any agency described above is prohibited from providing Contractors or Subcontractors with the result of such background check. For more information, please see Michigan Public Act 427 of 2018. Upon request, or as may be specified in a Statement of Work, Contractor must perform background checks on all employees and subcontractors and its employees prior to their assignment. The scope is at the discretion of the State and documentation must be provided as requested. Contractor is responsible for all costs associated with the requested background checks. The State, in its sole discretion, may also perform background checks.

Assignment. Contractor may not assign this Contract to any other party without the prior approval of the State. Upon notice to Contractor, the State, in its sole discretion, may assign in whole or in part, its rights or responsibilities under this Contract to any other party. If the State determines that a novation of the Contract to a third party is necessary, Contractor will agree to the novation and provide all necessary documentation and signatures.

Change of Control. Contractor will notify the State, within 30 days of any public announcement or otherwise once legally permitted to do so, of a change in Contractor’s organizational structure or ownership. For purposes of this Contract, a change in control means any of the following: (a) a sale of more than 50% of Contractor’s stock; (b) a sale of substantially all of Contractor’s assets; (c) a change in a majority of Contractor’s board members; (d) consummation of a merger or consolidation of Contractor with any other entity; (e) a change in ownership through a transaction or series of transactions; (f) or the board (or the stockholders) approves a plan of complete liquidation. A change of control does not include any consolidation or merger effected exclusively to change the domicile of Contractor, or any transaction or series of transactions principally for bona fide equity financing purposes.

In the event of a change of control, Contractor must require the successor to assume this Contract and all of its obligations under this Contract.

Ordering. Contractor is not authorized to begin performance until receipt of authorization as identified in a Statement of Work.

Acceptance. Contract Activities are subject to inspection and testing by the State within 30 calendar days of the State’s receipt of them (“State Review Period”), unless otherwise provided in a Statement of Work. If the Contract Activities are not fully accepted by the State, the State will notify Contractor by the end of the State

Version 2022-4 20 of 31

Review Period that either: (a) the Contract Activities are accepted but noted deficiencies must be corrected; or (b) the Contract Activities are rejected. If the State finds material deficiencies, it may: (i) reject the Contract Activities without performing any further inspections; (ii) demand performance at no additional cost; or (iii) terminate this Contract in accordance with Section 24, Termination for Cause.

Within 10 business days from the date of Contractor’s receipt of notification of acceptance with deficiencies or rejection of any Contract Activities, Contractor must cure, at no additional cost, the deficiency and deliver unequivocally acceptable Contract Activities to the State. If acceptance with deficiencies or rejection of the Contract Activities impacts the content or delivery of other non-completed Contract Activities, the parties’ respective Program Managers must determine an agreed to number of days for re-submission that minimizes the overall impact to the Contract.

However, nothing herein affects, alters, or relieves Contractor of its obligations to correct deficiencies in accordance with the time response standards set forth in this Contract.

If Contractor is unable or refuses to correct the deficiency within the time response standards set forth in this Contract, the State may cancel the order in whole or in part. The State, or a third party identified by the State, may perform the Contract Activities and recover the difference between the cost to cure and the Contract price plus an additional 10% administrative fee.

Delivery. Contractor must deliver all Contract Activities F.O.B. destination, within the State premises with transportation and handling charges paid by Contractor, unless otherwise specified in a Statement of Work. All containers and packaging become the State’s exclusive property upon acceptance.

Risk of Loss and Title. Until final acceptance, title and risk of loss or damage to Contract Activities remains with Contractor. Contractor is responsible for filing, processing, and collecting all damage claims. The State will record and report to Contractor any evidence of visible damage. If the State rejects the Contract Activities, Contractor must remove them from the premises within 10 calendar days after notification of rejection. The risk of loss of rejected or non-conforming Contract Activities remains with Contractor. Rejected Contract Activities not removed by Contractor within 10 calendar days will be deemed abandoned by Contractor, and the State will have the right to dispose of it as its own property. Contractor must reimburse the State for costs and expenses incurred in storing or effecting removal or disposition of rejected Contract Activities.

Warranty Period. The warranty period, if applicable, for Contract Activities is a fixed period commencing on the date specified in a Statement of Work. If the Contract Activities do not function as warranted during the warranty period, the State may return such non-conforming Contract Activities to the Contractor for a full refund.

Invoices and Payment. Invoices must conform to the requirements communicated from time-to-time by the State. All undisputed amounts are payable within 45 days of the State’s receipt. Contractor may only charge for Contract Activities provided as specified in a Statement of Work. Invoices must include an itemized statement of all charges. The State is exempt from State sales tax for direct purchases and may be exempt from federal excise tax, if Services purchased under this Agreement are for

Version 2022-4 21 of 31 the State’s exclusive use.
