PARTICIPATING ENTITY USE AND PURCHASING A. ORDERS AND PAYMENT. To access the contracted Equipment, Products, or Services under this Contract, a Participating Entity must clearly indicate to Supplier that it intends to access this Contract; however, order flow and procedure will be developed jointly between Sourcewell and Supplier. Typically, a Participating Entity will issue an order directly to Supplier or its authorized subsidiary, distributor, dealer, or reseller. If a Participating Entity issues a purchase order, it may use its own forms, but the purchase order should clearly note the applicable Sourcewell contract number. All Participating Entity orders under this Contract must be issued prior to expiration or cancellation of this Contract; however, Supplier performance, Participating Entity payment obligations, and any applicable warranty periods or other Supplier or Participating Entity obligations may extend beyond the term of this Contract. Supplier’s acceptable forms of payment are included in its attached Proposal. Participating Entities will be solely responsible for payment and Sourcewell will have no liability for any unpaid invoice of any Participating Entity.
B. ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS/PARTICIPATING ADDENDUM. Additional terms and conditions to a purchase order, or other required transaction documentation, may be negotiated between a Participating Entity and Supplier, such as job or industry-specific requirements, legal requirements (e.g., affirmative action or immigration status requirements), or specific local policy requirements. Some Participating Entities may require the use of a Participating Addendum, the terms of which will be negotiated directly between the Participating Entity and the Supplier or its authorized dealers, distributors, or resellers, as applicable. Any negotiated additional terms and conditions must never be less favorable to the Participating Entity than what is contained in this Contract.

(i) If Borrower is a partnership or limited liability company (other than a single-member Delaware limited liability company formed under the Act which complies with the requirements of subsection (b)(ii) below) (an “Acceptable DE LLC”), each general partner in the case of a partnership, or the managing member in the case of a limited liability company (each an “SPE Component Entity”) of Borrower, as applicable, shall be an Acceptable DE LLC. Each SPE Component Entity (A) will at all times comply with each of the covenants, terms and provisions contained in Sections 6.1(a)(iii) through (vi) and (viii) through (xxiv) inclusive, as if such representation, warranty or covenant was made directly by such SPE Component Entity; (B) will not engage in any business or activity other than owning an interest in Borrower; (C) will not acquire or own any assets other than its partnership, membership, or other equity interest in Borrower; (D) will not own any subsidiary, or make any investment in any Person other than its investment in Borrower; (E) will not incur any debt, secured or unsecured, direct or contingent (including guaranteeing any obligation); and (F) will cause Borrower to comply with the provisions of this Section 6.1 and Section 6.4.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent Borrower is an Acceptable DE LLC, so long as Borrower maintains such formation status and complies with the requirements set forth in subsection (b)(ii) below, the SPE Component Entity requirement as set forth in this section shall not be applicable. Furthermore, in no event shall Borrower or any SPE Component Entity be a corporation unless such corporation has a shareholder that is an Acceptable DE LLC that complies with Section 6.4 hereof and no Material Action may be taken with respect to such corporation without the vote of such Acceptable DE LLC and its Independent Directors.
(ii) In the event Borrower or SPE Component Entity is an Acceptable DE LLC (as referred to in this clause (ii), the “Company”), the limited liability company agreement of the Company (the “LLC Agreement”) shall provide that (A) upon the occurrence of any event that causes the sole member of the Company (“Member”) to cease to be the member of the Company (other than (1) upon an assignment by Member of all of its limited liability company interest in the Company and the admission of the transferee in accordance with the Loan Documents and the LLC Agreement, or (2) the resignation of Member and the admission of an additional member of the Company in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and the LLC Agreement), the personal representative of Member shall, within ninety (90) days, agree in writing to continue the existence of the Company and to the admission of such personal representative or its nominee or designee, as the case may be, as a substitute member of the Company, effective as of the occurrence of the event that caused the Member to cease to be a member of the Company, and a natural person duly designated under the LLC Agreement any person acting as Independent Director of the Company and executing the LLC Agreement (“Special Member”) shall, without any action of any other Person and simultaneously with the Member ceasing to be the member of the Company, automatically be admitted to the Company and shall continue the existence of the Company without dissolution, and (B) Special Member may not resign from the Company or transfer its rights as Special Member unless (1) a successor Special Member has been admitted to the Company as Special Member in accordance with the requirements of the Act and (2) after giving effect to such resignation, such successor Special Member has also accepted its appointment as an Independent Director. The LLC Agreement shall further provide that (v) Special Member shall automatically cease to be a member of the Company upon the admission to the Company of a substitute Member, (w) Special Member shall be a member of the Company that has no interest in the profits, losses and capital of the Company and has no right to receive any distributions of the assets of the Company, (x) pursuant to Section 18-301 of the Act, Special Member shall not be required to make any capital contributions to the Company and shall not receive a limited liability company interest in the Company, (y) Special Member, in its capacity as Special Member, may not bind the Company, and (z) except as required by any mandatory provision of the Act, Special Member, in its capacity as Special Member, shall have no right to vote on, approve or otherwise consent to any action by, or matter relating to, the Company, including, without limitation, the merger, consolidation or conversion of the Company; provided, however, such prohibition shall not limit the obligations of Special Member, in its capacity as Independent Director, to vote on such matters required by the Loan Documents or the LLC Agreement. Prior to its admission to the Company as Special Member, Special Member shall not be a member of the Company, but the Special Member may serve as an Independent Director of the Company. Any action initiated by or brought against Member or Special Member under any Creditors Rights Laws shall not cause Member or Special Member to cease to be a member of the Company and upon the occurrence of such an event, the existence of the Company shall continue without dissolution. The LLC Agreement shall also provide that each of Member and Special Member waives any right it might have to agree in writing to dissolve the Company upon the occurrence of any action initiated by or brought against Member or Special Member under any Creditors Rights Laws, or the occurrence of an event that causes Member or Special Member to cease to be a member of the Company.
(c) The organizational documents of Borrower and each SPE Component Entity shall provide an express acknowledgment that Lender is an intended third-party beneficiary of the “special purpose” provisions of such organizational documents.
(d) Borrower has executed and delivered to Lender the certificate attached hereto as Exhibit D.
Entity-Level Taxation If legislation is enacted or the official interpretation of existing legislation is modified by a governmental authority, which after giving effect to such enactment or modification, results in a Group Member becoming subject to federal, state or local or non-U.S. income or withholding taxes in excess of the amount of such taxes due from the Group Member prior to such enactment or modification (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any increase in the rate of such taxation applicable to the Group Member), then the General Partner may, at its option, reduce the Minimum Quarterly Distribution and the Target Distributions by the amount of income or withholding taxes that are payable by reason of any such new legislation or interpretation (the “Incremental Income Taxes”), or any portion thereof selected by the General Partner, in the manner provided in this Section 6.9. If the General Partner elects to reduce the Minimum Quarterly Distribution and the Target Distributions for any Quarter with respect to all or a portion of any Incremental Income Taxes, the General Partner shall estimate for such Quarter the Partnership Group’s aggregate liability (the “Estimated Incremental Quarterly Tax Amount”) for all (or the relevant portion of) such Incremental Income Taxes; provided that any difference between such estimate and the actual liability for Incremental Income Taxes (or the relevant portion thereof) for such Quarter may, to the extent determined by the General Partner, be taken into account in determining the Estimated Incremental Quarterly Tax Amount with respect to each Quarter in which any such difference can be determined. For each such Quarter, the Minimum Quarterly Distribution, First Target Distribution, Second Target Distribution and Third Target Distribution, shall be the product obtained by multiplying (a) the amounts therefor that are set out herein prior to the application of this Section 6.9 times (b) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) Available Cash with respect to such Quarter by (ii) the sum of Available Cash with respect to such Quarter and the Estimated Incremental Quarterly Tax Amount for such Quarter, as determined by the General Partner. For purposes of the foregoing, Available Cash with respect to a Quarter will be deemed reduced by the Estimated Incremental Quarterly Tax Amount for that Quarter.
