Since April 1, 2019, the Seller has satisfied all L1 and L2 service-level commitments to customers required under the terms of the Transferred Contracts entered into prior to April 1, 2019 listed in Schedule 2.1(a)(i).

A religious or charitable organization is eligible to be a Contractor on the same basis as any other private organization. The Contractor retains its independence from state and local governments, including the Contractor's control over the definition, development, practice and expression of its charitable or religious beliefs. Except as provided by federal law, HHSC shall not interpret this Contract to require a charitable or religious organization to alter its form of internal governance or remove religious art, icons, scripture or other symbols. Furthermore, if a religious or charitable organization segregates the government funds provided under this Contract, then only the financial assistance provided by these funds will be subject to audit. However, neither HHSC's selection of a charitable or faith-based Contractor nor the expenditure of funds under this Contract is an endorsement of the Contractor's charitable or religious character, practices or expression. The purpose of this Contract is the provision of community services. No state expenditures have as their objective the funding of sectarian worship, instruction or proselytization, and no state funds shall be expended for these purposes.
