For material changes, the awarded contract holder and/or subsequent assignee agrees to and understands the following principles:
i. Contract holder reference. If the contract holder undergoes a merger, acquisition, or partial assignment, in which case they still maintain the contract, then all transactions made under the existing contract number (including purchase orders) must reference the name of the awarded contract holder. The exception to this requirement is if the contract holder no longer holds the contract or if the company has been acquired by another company and undergone a name change. Notice of the authorized name change, to the existing contract, must be provided and approved by Region 4.

In instances where the contract holder has acquired a separate and distinct company, and it is necessary to designate those certain purchases facilitated by the non-contract holder, then this designation may be made if, and only if, the contract holder is also referenced on the transaction.
ii. Maintenance of records. Both the awarded contract holder and subsequent assignee agree to remain responsible for maintaining all auditable records, including documents kept in the ordinary course of business and sales invoices, related to OMNIA Partners, Public Sector and/or contract number pursuant to the statutory requirements identified in the vendor contract.
iii. Payments. Both the awarded contract holder and subsequent assignee agree that all payments made by participating entities must be made directly to the contract holder, unless otherwise approved by Region 4. Accordingly, both parties acknowledge that in instances where it is necessary to designate the purchases facilitated by assignee, that the contract holder must also be referenced on the purchase order. iv. Handling of Proprietary and/or Confidential Information. In accord with the terms of the contract, both awarded vendor and assignee agree that at all times it will hold in strict confidence and not disclose to any third party Confidential and/or Proprietary information of Region 4, except as approved in writing by Region 4, and will use the Confidential Information for no purpose other than providing services under the contract. Both awarded vendor and assignee shall only permit access to Confidential Information to those of its employees or authorized representatives having a need to know and who have signed confidentiality agreements or are otherwise bound by confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those contained herein.

This document is to be construed in strict accordance with the terms and conditions outlined in the Region 4/vendor Master Agreement referenced herein. Both awarded vendor and assignee agree to uphold the vendor obligations set forth in the vendor agreement. This Agreement will become effective when signed by all parties.

For material changes, the awarded contract holder and/or subsequent assignee agrees to and understands the following principles:
i. Contract holder reference. If the contract holder undergoes a merger, acquisition, or partial assignment, in which case they still maintain the contract, then all transactions made under the existing contract number (including purchase orders) must reference the name of the awarded contract holder. The exception to this requirement is if the contract holder no longer holds the contract or if the company has been acquired by another company and undergone a name change. Notice of the authorized name change, to the existing contract, must be provided and approved by Region 4.

In instances where the contract holder has acquired a separate and distinct company, and it is necessary to designate those certain purchases facilitated by the non-contract holder, then this designation may be made if, and only if, the contract holder is also referenced on the transaction.
ii. Maintenance of records. Both the awarded contract holder and subsequent assignee agree to remain responsible for maintaining all auditable records, including documents kept in the ordinary course of business and sales invoices, related to OMNIA Partners, Public Sector and/or contract number pursuant to the statutory requirements identified in the vendor contract.
iii. Payments. Both the awarded contract holder and subsequent assignee agree that all payments made by participating entities must be made directly to the contract holder, unless otherwise approved by Region 4. Accordingly, both parties acknowledge that in instances where it is necessary to designate the purchases facilitated by assignee, that the contract holder must also be referenced on the purchase order. iv. Handling of Proprietary and/or Confidential Information. In accord with the terms of the contract, both awarded vendor and assignee agree that at all times it will hold in strict confidence and not disclose to any third party Confidential and/or Proprietary information of Region 4, except as approved in writing by Region 4, and will use the Confidential Information for no purpose other than providing services under the contract. Both awarded vendor and assignee shall only permit access to Confidential Information to those of its employees or authorized representatives having a need to know and who have signed confidentiality agreements or are otherwise bound by confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those contained herein.

This document is to be construed in strict accordance with the terms and conditions outlined in the Region 4/vendor Master Agreement referenced herein. Both awarded vendor and assignee agree to uphold the vendor obligations set forth in the vendor agreement. This Agreement will become effective when signed by all parties.

Dear Region 4 Team,
As EPIC and our participating Members continue servicing OMNIA agencies nationwide, we are experiencing a sustained and significant increase in freight and parcel delivery costs that is disproportionately impacting the economics of smalldollar orders.

To help offset these rising fulfillment expenses while maintaining high service levels to OMNIA Members, EPIC respectfully requests authorization for participating EPIC Members to apply an additional $9.00 small-order processing fee on OMNIA Member orders below $50.00.

Docusign Envelope ID: 6240E956-6A60-8800-8383-B15C27A0545A 1986
Version 01162026
This request is supported by substantial industry data demonstrating continued escalation in parcel transportation and delivery costs:
• UPS and FedEx implemented average General Rate Increases (GRIs) of 5.9% for 2025-2026, with many shipment categories increasing well above that level.
• Industry analysts report that actual parcel shipping expenses are increasing at materially higher rates once fuel surcharges and handling fees are included.
• The TD Cowen / AFS Freight Index recently reported ground parcel delivery costs reaching record highs, with per-package costs now more than 30% above 2018 baseline levels. • Fuel surcharges alone have increased dramatically in recent years, now representing nearly 20% of shipping charges on average according to parcel industry data.
• Small parcel and LTL carriers continue introducing additional surcharges and mid-year fee increases that disproportionately affect low-dollar, low-margin transactions.

For orders under $50.00, these escalating transportation and handling costs frequently exceed reasonable operational margins, particularly when considering picking, packing, delivery processing, and last-mile freight expenses. As a result, Members are increasingly absorbing costs that are no longer sustainable under current market conditions.

The proposed $9.00 small-order fee would help partially offset these unavoidable operational increases while preserving continued service responsiveness, delivery performance, and national contract support for OMNIA agencies.

Importantly, this request is not intended to generate additional profit, but rather to establish a modest cost-recovery mechanism aligned with prevailing logistics market realities.

We respectfully request Region 4’s consideration and approval of this accommodation to support long-term contract sustainability and continued high-quality service delivery through the EPIC Member network.

Thank you for your consideration and partnership.

The individual signing this Contract Update represents and warrants to Region 4 ESC that they have the full authority to execute this Contract Update.

I. SCOPE OF WORK
Region 4 Education Service Center (“Region 4 ESC”) requests proposals from qualified suppliers with the intent to enter into a Contract for office supplies, related products and services. Region 4 ESC is seeking a provider that has the depth, breadth and quality of resources necessary to complete all phases of the Contract. Awarded Offeror(s) shall deliver products and services under the terms of this agreement. While this solicitation specifically covers office supplies, related products and office services, each awarded Offeror may offer their complete product and service offering, or balance of line. Region 4 ESC reserves the right to accept or reject any or all balance of line items offered.

Region 4 ESC is an education service center established by the Texas Legislature in 1967 to assist school districts and charter schools in improving efficiencies. Region 4 ESC directly serves a seven-county area comprised of 48 public school districts and 34 open-enrollment charter schools, representing more than 1.2 million students, 95,000 educators and 1,500 campuses. Through cooperative contracts Region 4 ESC extends the opportunity to operate more efficiently and economically to agencies nationwide through National IPA (see below).

The Contract is based on the need to provide the economic benefits of volume purchasing and reduction in administrative costs through cooperative purchasing to schools and other participants. Although the awarded Offeror(s) may restrict sales to certain public units (for example, state agencies or local government units), any proposal that prohibits sales from being made to public school districts may not be considered. Sales without restriction are preferred. These types of contracts are commonly referred to as being “piggybackable.”

NATIONAL CONTRACT
Region 4 ESC, as the Principal Procurement Agency, defined in APPENDIX D, has partnered with OMNIA Partners to make the resultant contract (also known as the “Master Agreement” in materials distributed by OMNIA Partners) from this solicitation available to other public agencies nationally, including state and local governmental entities, public and private primary, secondary and higher education entities, non-profit entities, and agencies for the public benefit (“Public Agencies”), through OMNIA Partners’ cooperative purchasing program. The Region 4 ESC is acting as the contracting agency for any other Public Agency that elects to utilize the resulting Master Agreement. Use of the Master Agreement by any Public Agency is preceded by their registration with OMNIA Partners (a “Participating Public Agency”). APPENDIX D contains additional information about OMNIA Partners and the cooperative purchasing agreement.

OMNIA Partners is the largest and most experienced purchasing organization for public and private sector procurement. Through the economies of scale created by OMNIA Partners’ public sector subsidiaries, National IPA and U.S. Communities, our participants now have access to more competitively solicited and publicly awarded cooperative agreements. The lead agency contracting process continues to be the foundation on which we operate. OMNIA Partners is proud to offer more value and resources to state and local government, higher education, K-12 education and non-profits.

OMNIA Partners provides shared services and supply chain optimization to government, education and the private sector. As a channel partner with Vizient (formally, Novation), OMNIA Partners leverages over $100 billion in annual supply spend to command the best prices for products and services. With corporate, pricing and sales commitments from the 1992
RFP Page 3
Supplier, OMNIA Partners provides marketing and administrative support for the Supplier that directly promotes the Supplier’s products and services to Participating Public Agencies though multiple channels, each designed to promote specific products and services to Public Agencies on a national basis. Public Agencies benefit from pricing based on aggregate spend and the convenience of a contract that has already been advertised and publicly competed. The Supplier benefits from a contract that allows Participating Public Agencies to directly purchase goods and services without the Supplier’s need to respond to additional competitive solicitations. As such, the Supplier must be able to accommodate a nationwide demand for services and to fulfill obligations as a nationwide Supplier and respond to the OMNIA Partners documents (APPENDIX D).

The Region 4 ESC anticipates spending approximately $60M over the full potential Master Agreement term for office supplies, related products and services. While no minimum volume is guaranteed to the Supplier, the estimated annual volume of office supplies, related products and services purchased under the Master Agreement through OMNIA Partners Public Sector is approximately $500M. This projection is based on the current annual volumes among the Region 4 ESC, other Participating Public Agencies anticipated to utilize the resulting Master Agreement to be made available to them through OMNIA Partners, and volume growth into other Public Agencies through a coordinated marketing approach between the Supplier and OMNIA Partners.

Scope of Products and Services
It is the intention of Region 4 ESC to establish a contract with Offeror(s) for office supplies, related products and services. Offerors are encouraged to propose their complete catalog, products and services including but not limited to the following categories:
 Office Supplies: General office supplies shall include but not limited to office consumables, paper, toner, IT peripherals and office equipment  School Supplies: General educational supplies shall include but not limited to educational consumables, paper, toner, IT peripherals and school equipment  Copy and Print Services: Provide copy and print services with the ability to ship materials

After the opening date, consideration may be given in cases where Offeror advises that it made a clerical error that is substantially lower than it intended. In such case, Offeror must provide written notice of their desire to withdraw, along with supporting documents, within 3 business days of receiving the acceptance letter or of being requested by Region 4 ESC for clarification of the proposal, whichever is later.

During the course of negotiations, no Offeror’s proposal, including pricing, shall be revealed to any other Offeror or to any other person who is not involved with the evaluation process.

Exclusive or concurrent negotiations shall not constitute a Contract award, nor shall it confer any property rights to the successful Offeror.

19. Best and Final Offer: Region 4 ESC, in its sole discretion, may request Offerors reasonably susceptible for award to submit a Best and Final Offer. Offerors must submit their Best and 1998
RFP Page 9
Final Offers in writing. If an Offeror does not respond to the request for a Best and Final Offer, that Offeror’s most recent prior submission will be considered its Best and Final Offer.

20. Specifications: When a solicitation contains a specification that states no substitutions, no deviation from this requirement will be permitted. Offeror must comply with the true intent of the specifications and drawings and not take advantage of any unintentional error or omission.

In cases where no type and kind of product is specified, specifications have been developed to indicate minimal standards as to the usage, materials, and contents based on the needs of the members. References to manufacturer’s specifications (“Design Guides”), when used by Region 4 ESC, are to be considered informative to give the Offeror information as to the general style, type and kind requested. Responses proposing goods, materials or equipment regularly produced by a reputable manufacturer shall be evaluated by Region 4 ESC which will, in its sole discretion, determine whether such proposed goods, materials or equipment are substantially equivalent to the Design Guides, considering quality, workmanship, economy of operation, and suitability for the purpose intended. Offerors should include all documentation required to evaluate whether or not their proposed goods, materials or equipment are substantially equivalent to the Design Guides.

21. Quality of Materials or Services: Offeror shall state the brand name and number of the materials being provided. If none is indicated, it is understood that the Offeror is proposing the exact brand name and number specified or mentioned in the solicitation. However, unless specifically stated otherwise, comparable substitutions will be permitted in cases where the material is equal to that specified, considering quality, workmanship, economy of operation and suitability for the purpose intended.

22. Samples: Upon request, samples shall be furnished, free of cost, within seven (7) days after receiving notice of such request. By submitting the proposal Offeror certifies that all materials conform to all applicable requirements of this solicitation and of those required by law. Offeror agrees to bear the costs for laboratory testing, if results show the sample does not comply with solicitation requirements. Submissions may no longer be considered for failing to submit samples as requested.

23. Formation of Contract: A response to this solicitation is an offer to contract with Region 4 ESC based upon the terms, conditions, scope of work, and specifications contained in this request.

A solicitation does not become a Contract until it is awarded by Region 4 ESC. A Contract is formed when Region 4 ESC’s board signs the Offer and Contract Signature Form. The signed Offer and Contract Signature Form provided with the RFP response eliminates the need for a formal signing process.

24. Multiple Awards: Region 4 ESC reserves the right to award Contract(s) to multiple Offerors.

The decision to award multiple Contracts, award only one Contract, or to make no awards rests solely with Region 4 ESC.

25. Non-Exclusive: Any Contract resulting from this solicitation shall be awarded with the understanding and agreement it is for the sole convenience and benefit of Region 4 ESC.

Region 4 ESC reserves the right to obtain like goods and services from other sources.

26. Protest Procedure: Any protest of an award or proposed award must be filed in writing within ten (10) days from the date of the official award notification and must be received by 5:00 pm Central Time.

Implementation of House Bill 1295
Certificate of Interested Parties (Form 1295):

In 2015, the Texas Legislature adopted House Bill 1295, which added section 2252.908 of the Government Code. The law states that a governmental entity or state agency may not enter into certain contracts with a business entity unless the business entity submits a disclosure of interested parties to the governmental entity or state agency at the time the business entity submits the signed contract to the governmental entity or state agency. The law applies only to a contract of a governmental entity or state agency that either (1) requires an action or vote by the governing body of the entity or agency before the contract may be signed or (2) has a value of at least $1 million. The disclosure requirement applies to a contract entered into on or after January 1, 2016.

The Texas Ethics Commission was required to adopt rules necessary to implement that law, prescribe the disclosure of interested parties form, and post a copy of the form on the commission’s website. The commission adopted the Certificate of Interested Parties form (Form 1295) on October 5, 2015. The commission also adopted new rules (Chapter 46) on November 30, 2015, to implement the law. The commission does not have any additional authority to enforce or interpret House Bill 1295.

Filing Process:

Staring on January 1, 2016, the commission will make available on its website a new filing application that must be used to file Form 1295. A business entity must use the application to enter the required information on Form 1295 and print a copy of the completed form, which will include a certification of filing that will contain a unique certification number. An authorized agent of the business entity must sign the printed copy of the form and have the form notarized.

The completed Form 1295 with the certification of filing must be filed with the governmental body or state agency with which the business entity is entering into the contract.

The governmental entity or state agency must notify the commission, using the commission’s filing application, of the receipt of the filed Form 1295 with the certification of filing not later than the 30th day after the date the contract binds all parties to the contract. The commission will post the completed Form 1295 to its website within seven business days after receiving notice from the governmental entity or state agency.

Information regarding how to use the filing application will be available on this site starting on January 1, 2016.

Texas Government Code 2270 Verification Form
House Bill 89 (85R Legislative Session), which adds Chapter 2270 to the Texas Government Code, provides that a governmental entity may not enter into a contract with a company without verification that the contracting vendor does not and will not boycott Israel during the term of the contract.

Furthermore, Senate Bill 252 (85R Legislative Session), which amends Chapter 2252 of the Texas Government Code to add Subchapter F, prohibits contracting with a company engaged in business with Iran, Sudan or a foreign terrorist organization identified on a list prepared by the Texas Comptroller.

Also, our company is not listed on and we do not do business with companies that are on the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts list of Designated Foreign Terrorists Organizations found at https://comptroller.texas.gov/purchasing/docs/foreign-terrorist.pdf.

I further affirm that if our company's position on this issue is reversed and this affirmation is no longer valid, that the above-named Texas governmental entity will be notified in writing within one (1) business day and we understand that our company's failure to affirm and comply with the requirements of Texas Government Code 2270 et seq. shall be grounds for immediate contract termination without penalty to the above-named Texas governmental entity.

The Principal Procurement Agency has executed a Principal Procurement Agency Certificate with OMNIA Partners, an example of which is included as Exhibit D, and has agreed to pursue the Master Agreement. Use of the Master Agreement by any Public Agency is preceded by their registration with OMNIA Partners as a Participating Public Agency in OMNIA Partners’ cooperative purchasing program. Registration with OMNIA Partners as a Participating Public Agency is accomplished by Public Agencies entering into a Master Intergovernmental Cooperative Purchasing Agreement, an example of which is attached as Exhibit C. The terms and pricing established in the resulting Master Agreement between the Supplier and the Principal Procurement Agency will be the same as that available to Participating Public Agencies through OMNIA Partners.

All transactions, purchase orders, invoices, payments etc., will occur directly between the Supplier and each Participating Public Agency individually, and neither OMNIA Partners, any Principal Procurement Agency nor any Participating Public Agency, including their respective agents, directors, employees or representatives, shall be liable to Supplier for any acts, liabilities, damages, etc., incurred by any other Participating Public Agency. Supplier is responsible for knowing the tax laws in each state.

This Exhibit A defines the expectations for qualifying Suppliers based on OMNIA Partners’ requirements to market the resulting Master Agreement nationally to Public Agencies. Each section in this Exhibit A refers to the capabilities, requirements, obligations, and prohibitions of competing Suppliers on a national level in order to serve Participating Public Agencies through OMNIA Partners.

These requirements are incorporated into and are considered an integral part of this RFP. OMNIA Partners reserves the right to determine whether or not to make the Master Agreement awarded by the Principal Procurement Agency available to Participating Public Agencies, in its sole and absolute discretion, and any party submitting a response to this RFP acknowledges that any award by the Principal 2019

1.3 Estimated Volume
The dollar volume purchased under the Master Agreement is estimated to be approximately $500M annually. While no minimum volume is guaranteed to Supplier, the estimated annual volume is projected based on the current annual volumes among the Principal Procurement Agency, other Participating Public Agencies that are anticipated to utilize the resulting Master Agreement to be made available to them through OMNIA Partners, and volume growth into other Public Agencies through a coordinated marketing approach between Supplier and OMNIA Partners.

1.4 Award Basis
The basis of any contract award resulting from this RFP made by Principal Procurement Agency will, at OMNIA Partners option, be the basis of award on a national level through OMNIA Partners. If multiple Suppliers are awarded by Principal Procurement Agency under the Master Agreement, those same Suppliers will be required to extend the Master Agreement to Participating Public Agencies through OMNIA Partners. Utilization of the Master Agreement by Participating Public Agencies will be at the discretion of the individual Participating Public Agency. Certain terms of the Master Agreement specifically applicable to the Principal Procurement Agency are subject to modification for each Participating Public Agency as Supplier, such Participating Public Agency and OMNIA Partners shall agree.
