SAO AUDIT A. The state auditor may conduct an audit or investigation of any entity receiving funds from the state directly under the Contract or indirectly through a subcontract under the Contract. The acceptance of funds directly under the Contract or indirectly through a subcontract under the Contract acts as acceptance of the authority of the state auditor, under the direction of the legislative audit committee, to conduct an audit or investigation in connection with those funds. Under the direction of the legislative audit committee, an entity that is the subject of an audit or investigation by the state auditor must provide the state auditor with access to any information the state auditor considers relevant to the investigation or audit. B. Grantee shall comply with any rules and procedures of the state auditor in the implementation and enforcement of Section 2262.154 of the Texas Government Code.

A new Section 5.07 is hereby added to the Master Servicing Agreement to read as follows:
Final Audit Report Contractor shall promptly submit to the State a copy of any final audit report of an audit performed on Contractor’s records that relates to or affects this Contract or the Work, whether the audit is conducted by Contractor or a third party.
Security Audit Customer agrees that PROS’ Audit Report will be used to satisfy any audit or inspection requests by or on behalf of Customer, and PROS will make Audit Reports available to Customer upon request. PROS will promptly remediate any material weaknesses or significant control deficiencies identified in any Audit Reports. In the event that an audit opinion is qualified and the qualification has not been remediated by the date of the Audit Report, PROS shall (i) provide Customer with PROS remediation plan; and (ii) execute such plan in accordance with its terms.
Preliminary Examination 24.1 The Purchaser will examine the bids to determine whether they are complete, whether any computational errors have been made, whether required sureties have been furnished, whether the documents have been properly signed, and whether the bids are generally in order. 24.2 Arithmetical errors will be rectified on the following basis. If there is a discrepancy between the unit price and the total price that is obtained by multiplying the unit price and quantity, the unit price shall prevail, and the total price shall be corrected. If the Supplier does not accept the correction of the errors, its bid will be rejected, and its bid security may be forfeited. If there is a discrepancy between words and figures, the amount in words will prevail. 24.3 The Purchaser may waive any minor informality, nonconformity, or irregularity in a bid which does not constitute a material deviation, provided such waiver does not prejudice or affect the relative ranking of any Bidder. 24.4 Prior to the detailed evaluation, pursuant to ITB Clause 25 the Purchaser will determine the substantial responsiveness of each bid to the bidding documents. For purposes of these Clauses, a substantially responsive bid is one which conforms to all the terms and conditions of the bidding documents without material deviations. Deviations from, or objections or reservations to critical provisions, such as those concerning Bid Security (ITB Clause 15), Applicable Law (GCC Clause 30), and Taxes and Duties (GCC Clause 32), will be deemed to be a material deviation. The Purchaser’s determination of a bid’s responsiveness is to be based on the contents of the bid itself without recourse to extrinsic evidence.
Field Examination The Administrative Agent or its designee shall have conducted a field examination of the Loan Parties’ Accounts, Inventory and related working capital matters and of the Borrower’s related data processing and other systems, the results of which shall be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.
Compliance Audit LEA shall have the right but shall be under no obligation to conduct audit(s), from time to time, of Provider’s records concerning its compliance obligations as set forth in this Article V. Provider shall make such records and other documents available to LEA upon request.
Records; Audit Purchaser will, and will cause its Affiliates to, keep and maintain for [***] years after the relevant calendar quarter complete and accurate books and records in sufficient detail so that Net Sales and payments made hereunder can be properly calculated. No more frequently than once during each calendar year during the Term and once during the [***] year period thereafter, Purchaser will permit independent third-party auditors appointed by Spectrum or Bayer (the party requesting an audit, the “Auditing Party”) and with at least [***] days advance notice at any time during normal business hours, accompanied at all times, to inspect, audit and copy reasonable amounts of relevant accounts and records of Purchaser and its Affiliates and reports submitted to Purchaser and its Affiliates pertaining to a Payment Period that is not earlier than [***] months from the date of conclusion of the audit, for the sole purpose of verifying the accuracy of the calculation of payments to Spectrum pursuant to this Article 4. The accounts, records and reports related to any particular period of time may only be audited one time under this Section 4.5. The Auditing Party will cause their independent third-party auditors not to provide the Auditing Party with any copies of such accounts, records or reports and not to disclose to the Auditing Party any information other than information relating solely to the accuracy of the accounting and payments made by Purchaser pursuant to this Article 4. The Auditing Party will cause its independent third-party auditors to promptly provide a copy of their report to Purchaser. If such audit determines that payments are due to Spectrum, Purchaser will pay to Spectrum any such additional amounts within [***] Business Days after the date on which such auditor’s written report is delivered to Purchaser and the Auditing Party, unless such audit report is disputed by Purchaser, in which case the dispute will be resolved in accordance with Section 16.10. If such audit determines that Purchaser has overpaid any amounts to Spectrum, Spectrum will refund any such overpaid amounts to Purchaser within [***] Business Days after the date on which such auditor’s written report is delivered to Purchaser and the Auditing Party. Any such inspection of records will be at Spectrum’s expense unless such audit discloses a deficiency in the payments made by Purchaser (whether for itself or on behalf of its Affiliates) of more than [***] percent ([***]%) of the aggregate amount payable for the relevant period, in which case Purchaser will bear the cost of such audit. Each of the parties agrees that all information subject to review under this Section 4.5 is Purchaser’s Confidential Information that is subject to Spectrum’s confidentiality and non-use obligations under Section 9.5.2, and the Auditing Party agrees that it will cause its independent third-party auditors to also retain all such information subject to the non-disclosure and non-use restrictions of Section 9.5.2 or similar (but no less stringent) obligations of confidentiality and non-use customary in the accounting industry.
Other Controller Audit Any other Controller may audit SAP’s control environment and security practices relevant to Personal Data processed by SAP in line with Section 5.1 only if any of the cases set out in Section 5.1 applies to such other Controller. Such audit must be undertaken through and by Customer as set out in Section 5.1 unless the audit must be undertaken by the other Controller itself under Data Protection Law. If several Controllers whose Personal Data is processed by SAP on the basis of the Agreement require an audit, Customer shall use all reasonable means to combine the audits and to avoid multiple audits.
