In addition, Contractor shall defend any challenge to such requested redactions at its own expense. Contractor 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. 12.

Unavailability of Funding. Due to possible future reductions in state and/or federal funds, University cannot guarantee the continued availability of funding of this Agreement notwithstanding the consideration contained within this Agreement. In the event funds to finance this Agreement become unavailable, either in full or in part, due to such reductions, University may terminate this Agreement or reduce the consideration upon notice in writing to Contractor. 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, Contractor may cancel this Agreement as of the effective date of the proposed reduction upon the provision of advance written notice to University. Contractor 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. 15. Parking. University shall not be responsible for providing parking for Contractor's parking needs.

It is recommended that Contractor and any temporary employees contact the University to obtain information regarding parking and to obtain permits. 16. Building Rules and Regulations; Tobacco Use. Employees of Contractor and any subcontractors shall comply with all University rules and regulations pertaining to conduct in University s facilities. University reserves the right to request the removal or replacement of Contractor or subcontractor employee who fails to comply with such rules and regulations.

The Contractor is expected to respect this tobacco-free policy and fully comply with it. 17. Use of Premises.

Hazardous Waste Generated by Contractors. Any hazardous waste, which is generated from the performance of the Agreement, shall be properly disposed of by Contractor, in a timely fashion, and in accordance with applicable hazardous waste laws and regulations. The cost for hazardous waste management and disposal is Contractor's responsibility. Should University deem it prudent to dispose of any hazardous waste left on its property, as a result of Contractor's failure to meet its responsibilities, all costs associated with such disposal shall be deducted from any amount yet to be paid to the Contractor and/or billed to the Contractor. University Environmental Health Services is to be notified of all hazardous waste issues. Any non-hazardous waste generated in the performance of this Agreement must be disposed of off campus by Contractor. 19. Delivery; F.O.B.; Shipping. Contractor shall bear all costs of transportation, packing, crating, delivery, installation, storage, and service under warranty for any goods or related services, delivered pursuant to the Agreement. Contractor shall be responsible for and make delivery, including costs of delivery, cartage, temporary storage, off-loading costs, and insurance, F.O.B. destination: University of Nebraska. Unless otherwise specified, all shipments will utilize the best commercial practice to insure safe arrival at the University delivery point. 20. Quantity. With respect to quantity of any good purchased under the Agreement, University need not accept any variation in quantity except as specified in the Contract Documents. Over-shipments may be returned to Contractor at its expense, which shall include a reasonable cost for University handling, or be retained by University at no increase in price. 21. Inspection. University may, at any time in the course of the Agreement, inspect and test materials and supplies being used in the performance of the Agreement, including at the point of manufacture. If inspection and tests are made on Contractor's premises, Contractor without additional charge, shall provide reasonable facilities and assistance for the safety and convenience of the testing/inspection personnel. Except as otherwise agreed in writing, all goods, equipment and supplies furnished under the Agreement shall be subject to final inspection and acceptance by University at the delivery destination. 22. Defective Goods or Work. University, notwithstanding any prior acceptance, at its option, may reject or require prompt correction (in place or elsewhere) of any goods, equipment, supplies, or other work, which are defective in material or workmanship or otherwise fail to meet the requirements of the Agreement. All supplies furnished under the Agreement shall be subject to inspection at F.O.B. destination, and Contractor shall be given notice of any defects, other than latent defects, within a reasonable time after receipt of the goods, equipment, and supplies, along with all records of delivery. University may, in addition to any rights it may have by law, prepare for shipment and ship the defective goods, equipment, and supplies to Contractor, require Contractor to remove them, or direct a correction in place. The expense of any such remedy shall be borne by Contractor, including any excess cost. 23. Liens. Contractor warrants that it has title to any goods delivered under the Agreement and shall deliver same free of all liens, claims, and encumbrances. 24. Federal, State and Local Sales Taxes; Federal Excise Taxes. Purchases made by the University are exempt from the payment of State Sales and Use Taxes and Federal Excise Taxes. Certification of these exemptions will be provided to Contractor following the execution of the contract documents. 25. Ambiguities. Should Contractor perceive an ambiguity in the Contract Documents, Contractor shall request an interpretation from University before proceeding. If Contractor fails to make such a request, failure to perform with respect to the alleged ambiguity shall not be excused. 26. Recycling Policy. When purchasing products, materials, or supplies for use, University, when making such purchases shall actively pursue the purchase of products, materials, or supplies which are manufactured or produced with at least 10% post-consumer recycled materials. This policy shall not operate when it would result in the purchase of products, materials, or supplies that are of inadequate quality, not readily available or substantially higher in cost. It is the intent of University to continually increase the percentage produced from post-consumer recycled material, and, to increase each year the types and variety of products, materials, or supplies purchased with post-consumer recycled material. 27. Contractor Identification. Contractor shall cause each of its employees or any person acting on behalf of the Contractor, while providing goods/services to University under this Agreement and working on University s property, to carry identification, with photo, showing that the individual is an employee or person acting on behalf of the Contractor. A badge worn outside of clothing is appropriate for this purpose. Such identification shall be produced upon request of any University representative, in order to confirm that the Contractor's representative is authorized to be present on University s property and/or performing as authorized by the Agreement. Whereas campus security is of utmost importance, failure of any Contractor representative to produce the requisite identification upon request, shall be a material breach of the Agreement and shall be cause, at the discretion of University, for immediate termination of the Agreement. For those who commonly wear a work uniform, such uniform shall be worn while providing the services related to this Agreement in order that University may quickly and clearly identify Contractor's service representatives when necessary. A uniform, however, does not take the place of a photo identification badge. 28. Legal Relationship. Contractor shall under no circumstances be considered as an agent or employee of University and shall have no right or authority to, in any manner, obligate University to any person or company except as authorized in writing by University. 29. Use of University Names and Logos. Contractor shall not use or display any University 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 Marks is expressly prohibited. Contractor 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 Contractor s business. 30. Improper Business Relationships and Conflict of Interest Prohibited. In connection with this Agreement, Contractor shall ensure that no improper, unethical, or illegal relationships, or conflict of interest exists between or among Contractor, the University and any staff and faculty, and any other party to this Agreement. University reserves the right to determine the materiality of such relationships, when discovered or disclosed, whether intended or not; and to decide whether or not cancellation of award shall result. Such cancellation shall be at no fault or liability whatsoever to University. 31. Electronic and Information Technology Accessibility. All electronic and information technology procurements, agreements, and contracts shall comply with Americans with Disabilities, Section 508 or the Rehabilitation Act of 1998 as amended and the Nebraska Accessibility Policy to be found at: https:// nitc.nebraska.gov/standards/2-Chapter.pdf. 32. Work Status Verification. Contractor, on behalf of itself and any subcontractor to the Agreement, agrees that it shall use a federal immigration verification system to determine the work eligibility status of new employees physically performing services within the State of Nebraska pursuant to Neb. Rev. Stat. 4-108 to 4-114 as amended. 33. Contractor's Certificate of Insurance. Contractor will be required to furnish a certificate of insurance with bodily injury/personal injury/liability coverage, property damage liability coverage, and workman's compensation coverage. This certificate must be on file prior to any commencement of Work. It is absolutely necessary that "The Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska is listed as an additional insured" be added to the face of the certificate for all coverage except worker's compensation. The above statement must be worded in this manner. It is also absolutely necessary that a  Completed Operations Coverage must be included as part of Contractor's General Liability. 34. Debarment. Contractor certifies and warrants that it has not been debarred, suspended, or declared ineligible as defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation 48 CFR Ch.1 Subpart 9.4. Contractor also certifies that Contractor, its partners, directors, officers, employees, licensees, subcontractors, or agents have not been excluded or debarred or otherwise become ineligible to participate in federal health care programs pursuant to 42 USC 1320a-7. The certification and warranty set forth in this section shall be an ongoing certification and warranty during the Term, and Contractor shall immediately notify University of any change in the status of the certification and warranty set forth in this section.
