Additional terms and conditions to a purchase order, or any Participating Addendum, are to be negotiated between a Participating Entity and Participating Dealer, such as job or industry-specific requirements, legal requirements (e.g., affirmative action or immigration status requirements), or specific local policy requirements. Some Participating Entitles may require the use of a Participating Addendum; the terms of which will be worked out directly between the Participating Entity and the Vendor. Any negotiated additional terms and conditions must never be less favorable to the Participating Entity than what is contained in this Contract.

C. PERFORMANCE BOND. If requested by a Participating Entity, Participating Dealer may agree to provide a performance bond that meets the requirements set forth in the Participating Entity’s order.

D. SPECIALIZED SERVICE REQUIREMENTS.

The Administrative Fee must be included in, and not added to, the pricing. Vendor may not charge Participating Entities more than the contracted price to offset the Administrative Fee.

The Vendor will submit a check payable to Sourcewell for one percent (1%) multiplied by the total net rental revenue (excludes freight, permits, and fees) of all Equipment, Products, and Services purchased by Participating Entities under this Contract during each calendar quarter as the administrative fee.
