Microsoft reserves the right, from time to time during the term of this Agreement, to expand, supplement, modify or reduce the scope of the Work under any SOW (a “Change”) upon written notice to Vendor and execution by both parties of documentation specifying such Change. In the event Microsoft requests a Change, the Parties will use reasonable efforts to agree in writing on necessary adjustments (if any) to the other terms of the applicable SOW necessary to accommodate the requested Change. Vendor agrees that it will cooperate in good faith with Microsoft in performing the Work as reasonably required by Microsoft, including any Changes requested by Microsoft. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Vendor shall not be obligated to work on a Change that results in a net expansion of the Work until the Parties have agreed in writing on such Change.

(i)Microsoft Equipment.Vendor agrees that it shall not use any Microsoft facilities and/or equipment (including any equipment owned, leased or rented by Vendor for performing its obligations under this Agreement) to perform services for any person or entity other than Microsoft without Microsoft’s prior written consent. In the event Microsoft provides Vendor with equipment for use in performing the Work, Vendor agrees to assume the risk of loss for all such equipment while in its care, custody or control. Vendor shall take all reasonable precautions to protect the equipment against loss, damage, theft or disappearance while in its care, custody or control. In addition, Vendor shall take no actions which affect Microsoft’s title or interest in such equipment.

(b)Licensing. Vendor must keep records relating to the licensing of the Microsoft software in its possession and use. Microsoft has the right to conduct an audit of Vendor or any Vendor Affiliate performing services under this Agreement to verify Vendor or its Affiliate’s licensing of Microsoft software using an independent accountant from a nationally recognized public accounting firm, which will be subject to a confidentiality obligation. Any such audit will take place upon not fewer than **** calendar days’ notice, during normal business hours and in a manner that does not interfere unreasonably with Vendor’s operations. As an alternative, Microsoft may require Vendor and/or its Affiliates(s) performing services under this Agreement to accurately complete a Microsoft self-audit questionnaire. If verification or self-audit reveals either Vendor’s or its Affiliates’ unlicensed use of Microsoft software, Vendor and/or its Affiliate(s) must promptly obtain sufficient licenses for all Microsoft software usage disclosed. If material unlicensed use is identified (defined as a license shortage of **** or more), Vendor and/or its Affiliate (as applicable) must reimburse Microsoft for the reasonable costs incurred in verification and acquire the necessary additional licenses within **** days. If Microsoft undertakes such verification and does not find material unlicensed use of its software, Microsoft will not undertake another verification of Vendor for at least one year. Microsoft and its auditors will use the information obtained in compliance verification only to enforce Microsoft’s rights and to determine whether Vendor and/or any Vendor Affiliate providing services under this Agreement is in compliance with the terms of the applicable software license agreement and the terms of this Agreement. By invoking the rights and procedures described above, Microsoft does not waive its rights to enforce the Agreement (including any license agreement or statement of work incorporating these terms) or to protect Microsoft’s intellectual property by any other means permitted by law.

(c)Compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Vendor shall maintain, at Microsoft’s cost, any documentation required and specified by Microsoft in connection with the United States Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

13) PUBLICITY AND MICROSOFT TRADEMARKS. **** Any permitted use of Microsoft trademarks under this Agreement must adhere to Microsoft’s then-current brand usage guidelines.

14) FORCE MAJEURE. If Vendor is or expects to be unable to perform Work as required by a SOW due to a condition or cause beyond Vendor’s reasonable control (such as natural disasters, riot, war, terrorist attack, or acts of a government authority) for **** or more, Vendor shall immediately notify Microsoft of the situation, via email, telephone, facsimile transmission or other means to the Microsoft Vendor Accounting Manager identified on the cover page of the Agreement and/or to the Microsoft business group contact for the SOW

15) OTHER PROVISIONS.

(a)Relationship of Parties; Non-exclusivity. This Agreement is only intended to create an independent contractor relationship between Vendor and Microsoft. Under no circumstance shall one Party’s employees be construed to be employees of the other Party. Vendor further agrees to be responsible for all of Vendor’s federal and state taxes, withholding, social security, insurance and other benefits. Upon request, Vendor shall provide Microsoft with satisfactory proof of independent contractor status, if applicable. The parties agree that nothing contained in this Agreement or any SOW shall be construed as creating an exclusive relationship between the parties.

(b)Governing Law; Attorneys’ Fees. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of **** and Vendor consents to jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts sitting in ****. Vendor waives all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non conveniens. Process may be served on either Party in the manner authorized to enforce by applicable law or court rule. If either Microsoft or Vendor employs attorneys to enforce any rights arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover its costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

(c)No Inadvertent Waiver. Failure of any Party to exercise its rights under this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver thereof and shall not prevent said Party from thereafter enforcing strict compliance with any of the terms thereof.

(d)Binding Nature. This Agreement shall inure to and bind all successors, assigns, receivers and trustees of the respective parties hereto.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Microsoft may assign this Agreement to any of its subsidiaries.

Article 1: Vendor Code of Conduct

Microsoft aspires to be more than just a good company – it aspires to be a great company. What will make Microsoft great is a strong commitment to our mission of enabling people and businesses throughout the world to realize their full potential. Achieving our mission isn’t just about building innovative technology. It’s also about who we are as a company and as individuals, how we manage our business internally, and how we think about and work with customers, partners, governments, vendors, and communities.

The global business environment is continuously changing and demanding more from us as a company and as employees. Not only does the world expect us to deliver the best products and services, it also expects us to conduct ourselves ethically and responsibly. It is essential that we conduct ourselves at all times with integrity and in full compliance with the laws and regulations that govern our global business activities. Microsoft has established a set of company standards of business practices and regulatory compliance that are set out in the Standards of Business Conduct which applies to all Microsoft employees, directors, and officers(www.microsoft.com/mscorp/legal/buscond). The Microsoft Standards of Business Conduct are an extension of Microsoft’s values and reflect our commitment to ethical business practices and regulatory compliance.

Microsoft expects that its vendors (“Vendors”) will share and embrace the letter and spirit of our commitment to integrity. We understand that Vendors are independent entities; however, the business practices and actions of a vendor may impact and/or reflect upon Microsoft. Because of this, Microsoft expects all Vendors and their employees, agents, and subcontractors (Vendors’ employees, agents, and subcontractors shall hereinafter be referred to collectively as “Representatives”) to adhere to the Microsoft Vendor Code of Conductwhile they are conducting business with and/or on behalf of Microsoft. All Microsoft Vendors should educate their Representatives to ensure they understand and comply with the Microsoft Vendor Code of Conduct.

a. LEGAL AND REGULATORY COMPLIANCE PRACTICES

All Microsoft Vendors and their Representatives shall conduct their business activities in full compliance with the applicable laws and regulations of their respective countries while conducting business with and/or on behalf of Microsoft. In addition to any specific obligations under Vendor’s agreement with Microsoft, all Microsoft Vendors shall, without limitation:

• Comply with all applicable trade controls, export, re-export and import laws or regulations.

• Conduct business in full compliance with antitrust and fair competition laws that govern the jurisdictions in which they conduct business.

• Comply with all applicable environmental laws and regulations regarding hazardous materials, air emissions, waste and wastewater discharges, including the manufacture, transportation, storage, disposal, and release to the environment of such materials.

• Be honest, direct, and truthful in discussions with regulatory agency representatives and government officials.

• Not participate in international boycotts not sanctioned by the U.S. government or applicable laws.

	Exhibit Page 6
**** = Certain information has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

• Comply with the anti-corruption laws of the countries in which it does business, including the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and refrain from making any direct or indirect payments or promises of payments to foreign government officials for the purpose of inducing the individual to misuse his/her position to obtain or retain business.

b. BUSINESS PRACTICES

Microsoft Vendors and their Representatives shall conduct their business interactions and activities with integrity and in accordance with their obligations under their specific agreements with Microsoft. In addition to any specific obligations under Vendor’s agreement with Microsoft, all Microsoft Vendors shall, without limitation:

• Honestly and accurately record and report all business information and comply with all applicable laws regarding their completion and accuracy.

• Create, retain, and dispose of business records in full compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

• Protect and responsibly use both the physical and intellectual assets of Microsoft including property, supplies, consumables, and equipment when authorized by Microsoft to use such assets.

• Use Microsoft provided information technology and systems (including e-mail) only for authorized Microsoft business-related purposes. Microsoft strictly prohibits Vendors and their Representatives from using Microsoft provided technology and systems to create, access, store, print, solicit, or send any material that is intimidating, harassing, threatening, abusive, sexually explicit or otherwise offensive or inappropriate and/or send any false, derogatory, or malicious communications using Microsoft provided information assets and systems.

• Comply with all Microsoft requirements for maintenance of passwords, confidentiality, security, and privacy procedures as a condition of providing Microsoft with goods or services or receiving access to Microsoft’s internal corporate network, all systems and buildings. All data stored or transmitted on Microsoft owned or leased equipment is to be considered private and is the property of Microsoft. Microsoft may monitor all use of the corporate networks and all systems (including e-mail) and/or access all data stored or transmitted using the Microsoft network.

• Comply with the intellectual property ownership rights of Microsoft and others including but not limited to copyrights, patents, trademarks, and trade secrets.

• Use software, hardware and content only in accordance with their associated license or terms of use.

• Speak to the press on Microsoft’s behalf only if Vendor and/or Representative(s) is expressly authorized in writing to do so by Microsoft.

• Use good judgment, discretion, and moderation when offering gifts or entertainment to Microsoft employees. In doing so, the Vendor and/or its Representatives will refrain from giving Microsoft employees an individual gift or a combination of gifts with a value greater than $200.00 in a given year (or any lower amount in accordance with applicable laws) and never offer a bribe, kickback, bartering arrangement for goods or services, and/or any other incentive to a Microsoft employee in order to obtain or retain Microsoft business. Gift giving and entertainment practices may vary in different cultures and waivers to the $200 annual limit above may be possible upon petition to the Microsoft regional controller; however, any gifts and entertainment given or received must be in compliance with the law, must not violate the giver’s and/or receiver’s policies on the matter, and be consistent with local custom and practice.

	Exhibit Page 7
**** = Certain information has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

• Avoid the appearance of or actual improprieties and/or conflicts of interests. Vendors and/or their Representatives shall not deal directly with any Microsoft employee whose spouse, domestic partner, or other family member or relative holds a significant financial interest in the Vendor. Dealing directly in the course of negotiating the Vendor agreement or performing the Vendor’s obligations with a spouse, domestic partner, or other family member or relative who is employed by Microsoft is also prohibited.

• Avoid insider trading by buying or selling Microsoft’s or another company’s stock when in possession of information about Microsoft or another company that is not available to the investing public and that could influence an investor’s decision to buy or sell stock.

• Prepayments are generally not permitted. In the event that an authorized prepayment has been made by Microsoft for the purchase of specific services or products, the prepayment can only be applied to those services or products expressly set forth in the applicable purchase order or SOW. Any prepayment made on a purchase order that was later cancelled may not be applied to other services or products, and must be returned to Microsoft within **** days of cancellation of the purchase order.

c. ENVIRONMENTAL PRACTICES

Microsoft expects its Vendors to share in its commitment to environmental conservation through responsible standards and business practices in the workplace. Microsoft Vendors shall conduct their business practices in full compliance with all applicable environmental laws and regulations. Furthermore, Microsoft Vendors should strive, without limitation:

• To implement policies and procedures that reduce wasteful energy and resource consumption.

• To participate in environmentally conscious recycling programs for paper, plastics, computer hardware, and other reusable resources.

d. EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES

Microsoft expects its Vendors to share its commitment to human rights and equal opportunity in the workplace. Microsoft Vendors shall conduct their employment practices in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. All Microsoft Vendors shall, without limitation:

• Cooperate with Microsoft’s commitment to a workforce free of harassment and unlawful discrimination. While we recognize and respect cultural differences, we believe that Vendor companies should not engage in discrimination in hiring, compensation, access to training, promotion, termination or retirement based on race, color, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, age, disability, gender identity or expression, marital status or veteran status.

• Provide a safe and healthy work environment with adequate people to facilities ratio, noise abatement measures, personal space, work breaks and ventilation.

• Fully comply with all applicable safety and health laws, regulations and practices. Adequate steps shall be taken to minimize the causes of hazards inherent in the working environment.

• Prohibit the use, possession, distribution, and/or sale of illegal drugs while on Microsoft owned or leased property.

• Use only voluntary labor. The use of forced labor whether in the form of indentured labor, bonded labor, or prison labor by a Microsoft Vendor and/or its subcontractors is prohibited.

• Not require workers to lodge or file “deposits”, identity papers or other personal affects with their employer as a condition of continued employment and be free to resign their employment in accordance with local and national laws or regulations without unlawful penalty or retaliation.

	Exhibit Page 8
**** = Certain information has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

• Comply with all local and national minimum working age laws or regulations and not utilize child labor. Furthermore, Vendors shall not employ anyone under the age of 15, under the age for completing compulsory education or under the legal minimum working age for employment, which ever is oldest. Microsoft supports the development of legitimate workplace apprenticeship programs for the educational benefit of younger people and will refrain from doing business with Vendors and/or their Representatives who abuse such systems. Workers under the age of 18 shall not perform hazardous work and may be restricted from night work, with consideration given to educational needs.

• Not engage in physical discipline or abuse. Physical abuse or discipline, the threat of physical abuse, sexual or other harassment, verbal abuse or other forms of intimidation is prohibited.

• Pay living wages under humane conditions. All workers shall be provided with clear, written information about their employment conditions with respect to wages before they enter employment and as needed throughout their term of employment. Any deductions from wages as a disciplinary measure shall not be permitted nor shall any deductions in violation of local or national law be permitted without the express written permission of the worker concerned. All disciplinary measures should be recorded. Wages and benefits paid for a standard working week must meet, at a minimum, national legal standards.

• Not require workers to work more than the maximum hours of daily labor set by local and national laws or regulations; ensure that overtime is voluntary and paid in accordance with local and national laws or regulations.

• Keep employee records in accordance to local and national laws or regulations and provide to the employee, in a timely manner, the basis on which they are being paid via pay stub or similar documentation.

e. COMPLIANCE WITH THE MICROSOFT VENDOR CODE OF CONDUCT

It is the Vendor’s responsibility to ensure its Representatives understand and comply with the Microsoft Vendor Code of Conduct and to inform its Microsoft contact (or a member of Microsoft management) if and when any situation develops that causes the Vendor to operate in violation of the obligations set forth in this document. Microsoft Vendors are expected to self-monitor their compliance with this Vendor Code of Conduct. In addition to any other rights Microsoft may have under its agreement with Vendor, Microsoft may request the immediate removal of any Representative who behaves in a manner that is unlawful or inconsistent with this Code or any Microsoft policy.

f. REPORTING OF QUESTIONABLE BEHAVIOR AND/OR POSSIBLE VIOLATIONS

To report questionable behavior or possible violation of the Vendor Code of Conduct that occurred while a Vendor or its Representative was providing goods or services to Microsoft, Microsoft has a variety of resources available to assist. Please work with your primary Microsoft contact in resolving a business practice or compliance concern, however, Microsoft recognizes there may be times when this is not possible or appropriate to report such matters. In these instances, please contact any of the following:

2. If you are calling from outside the United States, you may make a collect call to the Business Conduct Line by accessing an international operator and asking to place a collect call to ****.

Article 2: Insurance Requirements

Insurance Requirements.Prior to the commencement of the Services to be performed under this Agreement and throughout the entire Term of this Agreement, Vendor shall procure and maintain the following insurance. Such insurance shall be in a form and with insurers acceptable to Microsoft and shall comply with the following minimum requirements:

(a)Comprehensive General Liability. Vendor will obtain and maintain a policy of “general”, “public”, or “commercial” liability insurance as follows:

(i) Policy limits of not less than $**** each occurrence for bodily injury and $**** each occurrence for damage to property, or, alternatively, $**** combined single limit each occurrence for bodily injury and property damage combined.

(ii) Policy to be the “occurrence” form, including coverage for premises and operations, contractual liability (including insurable contractual liability assumed in this Agreement), broad form property damage, and products and completed operations.

(iii) The policy shall name Microsoft as an additional insured to the extent of the contractual liability assumed by Vendor in this Agreement, and shall contain a severability of interests’ provision in favor of the additional insureds.

(b)Workers’ Compensation – Vendor shall at all times comply with all applicable workers’ compensation, occupational disease, and occupational health and safety laws, statutes, and regulations to the full extent applicable. Such workers’ compensation and occupational disease requirements shall include coverage for all employees of Vendor, and for all employees of any Subcontractor retained by Vendor, suffering bodily injury (including death) by accident or disease, which arises out of or in connection with the performance of this Agreement by Vendor. Satisfaction of these requirements will include, but will not be limited to:

(i) full participation in any required governmental occupational injury and/or disease insurance program, to the extent participation in such program is mandatory in any jurisdiction, and

(ii) purchase of workers’ compensation and occupational disease insurance providing benefits to employees in full compliance with all applicable laws, statutes, and regulations (but only to the extent such coverage is not provided under a mandatory government program as in a.) above), and/or

(iii) maintenance of a legally permitted and governmentally approved program of self insurance for workers’ compensation and occupational disease.

Except to the extent prohibited by law, the program of Vendor’s compliance with workers’ compensation and occupational disease laws, statutes, and regulations in (a), (b), or (c) above will provide for a full waiver of rights of subrogation against Microsoft, its directors, officers, and employees, all of which rights are also hereby waived. If Vendor, or any Subcontractor retained by Vendor, fails to effect and maintain a program of compliance with applicable workers’ compensation and occupational disease laws, statutes, and regulations, and Microsoft incurs liability or fines or is required by law to provide benefits to such employees, or to obtain coverage for such employees, Vendor shall indemnify Microsoft for such fines, payment of benefits to Vendor or Subcontractor employees or their heirs or legal representatives, and/or the cost of effecting coverage on behalf of such employees.

(c)Employers Liability – Vendor shall maintain coverage for employers’ liability with a policy limit of not less than $**** per accident. In jurisdictions where commercial insurance of workers’ compensation is not permitted, this requirement may be fulfilled through addition of an “Employers Stop Gap Liability” endorsement to the comprehensive general liability policy required above.

(d)Professional Liability/Errors & Omissions Liability. Vendor shall maintain policy limits of not less than $**** each claim. Such insurance shall include coverage for infringement of proprietary rights of any third party, including without limitation copyright, trade secret and trademark infringement as related to Vendor’s performance under this Agreement. Throughout the Term of this Agreement, the Professional Liability/Errors & Omissions Liability insurance’s retroactive coverage date will be no later than the Effective Date of this Agreement. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, Vendor will either maintain active policy coverage, or an extended reporting period, providing coverage for claims first made and reported to the insurance company within one year after the end of the Agreement.

(e)General Requirements Applicable to All Above Coverages – The following general requirements shall be applicable to all coverages referenced anywhere in this Section:

(i) The above-referenced insurance policies shall be primary and not contributory to any insurance or program of self-insurance maintained by Microsoft.

(ii) Any deductible or retention in excess of $**** per occurrence or accident under any of the above required coverages shall be subject to the approval of Microsoft prior to the commencement of the Agreement.

(iii) All deductibles and premiums associated with the above coverages will be the responsibility of Vendor.

(iv) If in the opinion of Microsoft the amount of liability coverage is not adequate by reason of inflationary pressures, experience or the nature and content of Vendor’s activities, Vendor shall increase the amount of insurance coverage as reasonably required by Microsoft.

(v) At the request of Microsoft, Vendor will provide to Microsoft, or make available for Microsoft’s review, copies of certificates of insurances required herein.

(vi) The above referenced insurance limits shall not in any way limit the liability of Vendor or the liability of any Vendor Subcontractor during their performance under thia Agreement. Where any Subcontractor is retained by Vendor in the performance of this Agreement, Vendor shall either require such Subcontractor to assume the same insurance obligations on behalf of Microsoft as are required of Vendor herein, or extend its insurance to cover any Subcontractor retained by Vendor.

(f)Certificates of Insurance– Prior to the inception of this Agreement, Vendor shall provide to Microsoft certificates of insurance evidencing full compliance with the insurance requirements contained herein. Such certificates shall be kept current throughout the entire period of the Agreement, and Vendor shall provide for at least thirty (30) calendar days advance notice to Microsoft if the coverage is to be canceled or materially altered so as not to comply with the foregoing requirements. Failure by Vendor to furnish certificates of insurance or failure by Microsoft to request same shall not constitute a waiver by Microsoft of the insurance requirements set forth herein. In the event of such failure on the part of Vendor, Microsoft expressly reserves the right to enforce these requirements.

(g)Notice of Loss, Injury or Damage– In the event of any “significant” injury to persons or damage to property that occurs on the premises of Microsoft during the performance of this Agreement by Vendor or any Subcontractor thereof, Vendor shall notify Microsoft as promptly as reasonably practical after the occurrence of such injury or damage, and shall provide adequate details to enable Microsoft to investigate the cause of such injury or damage. For the purposes of this provision, the term “significant” shall mean injury to persons that results in hospital treatment of such injury, and for damage to property, any damage or loss of property in excess of ****.

(h)Workplace Hazards– If Vendor encounters unsafe conditions or workplace hazards in a Microsoft provided and controlled workplace that poses a safety hazard to Vendor’s employees, Vendor shall advise Microsoft promptly in written form of the existence and location of such condition or hazard. If Microsoft is unable to respond and correct the hazard on a timely basis, Vendor shall require its employees to take additional safety and personal protection measures as appropriate to reduce the potential risk of injury to employees working in the area of the condition or hazard until such time as Microsoft is able to correct the hazard.

(i)Revised Code of Washington – To the extent of the indemnity set forth in Section 7 (General Indemnity) of the Agreement, except to the extent prohibited by law, and solely as respect to bodily injury claims by any employees, Subcontractors and/or agents of Vendor which fall within the scope of the foregoing indemnity, Vendor expressly waives its immunity under industrial insurance laws, including but not limited to Title 51 of the Revised Code of the State of Washington, as respects injuries or death suffered by any employees, Subcontractors and/or agents of Vendor.

Article 3: Microsoft Pre-Placement Policy

Microsoft requires all temporary personnel agencies, vendors, suppliers and independent contractors (collectively, “Vendor Employees”) conduct pre-placement background checks on all Vendor employees performing services that require any access to Microsoft resources such as email, network access, cardkey, or other access badges. Before assigning any Vendor employee to perform any such services under this Agreement, Vendor will conduct a pre-placement background check for convictions, covering the last five years (collectively “background check”). If the Vendor employee successfully completed Vendor’s background check within twenty-four months of Vendor employee’s placement with Microsoft, no new background check will be required. Where a Local Agreement specifies that the services will require a Vendor employee to access the credit card or social security information of a Microsoft customer (“Personally Identifiable Information”), before assigning a Vendor employee to perform any such services, Vendor will conduct a pre-placement credit check covering the last three (3) years. If the Vendor employee successfully completed Vendor’s credit check within twelve months of Vendor employee’s placement with Microsoft, no new credit check will be required. Vendor will comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and any other applicable on background checks and credit checks. If Vendor chooses to outsource the function of these background and credit checks, Vendor shall, with Microsoft’s consent, use an established and reputable commercial background check company. If Vendor uses any Subcontractors to perform services under this Agreement that require any access to Microsoft resources such as email, network access, cardkey, or other access badges, or that require a Subcontractor to access the credit card or social security information of Microsoft customer, Vendor will ensure its agreements with Subcontractors include the requirements set forth in this policy.

If the background check or credit check discloses information that Vendor, in its sole discretion, concludes would make Vendor’s employee or Subcontractor unacceptable for placement with Microsoft, Vendor will not assign said individual to render any services to Microsoft.

If Microsoft or Vendor becomes aware of criminal activity by Vendor’s employee or Subcontractor while Vendor’s employee or Subcontractor is assigned to work for Microsoft, and Vendor determines this information makes Vendor’s employee or Subcontractor an unacceptable placement, Vendor will take complete responsibility for removing said individual from the Microsoft assignment and from Microsoft property. Vendor shall comply with all applicable laws when removing any Vendor employee or Subcontractor from Microsoft premises. If the criminal activity would suggest a threat of physical harm to Microsoft property or employees, the parties must inform their respective business contact immediately, but in no event later than 24 hours after becoming aware of the information.

Article 4: Vendor Subcontracting Requirements

Subcontractor Requirements

In the event Vendor is unable to comply with the percentage purchase requirements in the Agreement after using best efforts, Vendor shall have the right to include in the calculation of the amount paid by Vendor to Subcontractors those amounts paid by Vendor to Minority Owned and Operated Businesses and to Women Owned and Operated Businesses. By the tenth (10^th) business day following November 30 and May 31, Vendor shall report their subcontracted spend for the previous six month period via theMicrosoft Supplier Diversity Portal (https://www.suppliergateway.com/microsoft/). Failure by the Vendor to submit their subcontracted spend in compliance to the above referenced dates may, at Microsoft’s sole discretion, result in the reclassification or loss of vendor status and/or participation in MSVP.

If Vendor has used best efforts to fulfill its obligations under this section but has failed to do so for reasons beyond Vendor’s reasonable control, then the Vendor Contact shall, at Microsoft’s request:

1. Meet with the Microsoft Vendor Account Manager (“VAM”) and Supplier Diversity Program Manager to discuss Vendor’s efforts to comply. If the VAM and Supplier Diversity Program Manager determine that Vendor has made best, but unsuccessful, efforts to be in compliance, then, at Microsoft’s sole reasonable discretion, (a) Microsoft shall not enforce Vendor’s obligations under this section for a period not to exceed the timeframe required by Vendor to comply with the provisions of subsection 2, below, (b) Microsoft shall confirm the same in writing, and (c) Microsoft shall not consider Vendor to be in breach of its obligations under this section, and

2. Develop, in conjunction with the VAM and Supplier Diversity Program Manager, a mutually agreeable plan (including, but not limited to, a compliance timeline, quarterly compliance milestones, and quarterly reporting requirements) by which Vendor shall come into compliance with its obligations hereunder.

If, after meeting with the Vendor contacts, Microsoft determines in its sole reasonable discretion that it is not feasible or reasonable to require Vendor’s full compliance with this section, Microsoft shall either (a) modify the percentage requirements in order to facilitate Vendor’s compliance or (b) eliminate Vendor’s obligation to comply with this section in its entirety.

The provisions of this section shall not apply if Vendor’s annual receipts are less than **** and the Vendor qualifies as a small business as defined under the Small Business Administration’s Table of Size Standards dated October 1, 2002. However, Vendor must submit an exemption request via the Microsoft Supplier Diversity Portal for each reporting period. If Microsoft does not approve the exemption request, Microsoft shall notify the vendor via e-mail that the Vendor must report their subcontracted spend.

Article 5: Microsoft Travel Policy

In general, Microsoft does not pay for travel expenses. If Microsoft agrees in a SOW to pay Vendor’s expenses while traveling on authorized Microsoft business, then Microsoft will reimburse Vendor for all reasonable and necessary expenses incurred in accordance with the terms of the SOW and the following policies.

Vendor Responsibility:

• To minimize travel expenses whenever possible by using the least expensive options that do not result in unreasonably ineffective use of work time or undue inconvenience to the traveler.

• To obtain Microsoft’s written approval before incurring travel expenses for which reimbursement will be sought.

• To accurately document all travel expenses.

Airline Tickets:Vendors should purchase non-refundable airline tickets, and purchase them a minimum of seven (7) days in advance of the travel departure date.

Frequent Flyer/Frequent Guest Programs: Vendors may retain such program awards and benefits. Participation in these programs must not influence flight or lodging selections in any manner that would result in increased costs to Microsoft.

Cancellations:Vendor shall not seek reimbursement for travel expenses that are cancelled by Vendor.

When a trip is cancelled by Microsoft after the ticket/invoice has been issued, the traveler shall inquire about using the same ticket for future travel for Microsoft or obtain a refund to be applied to any request for reimbursement. Vendors are responsible for canceling hotel rooms and Microsoft will pay no expenses for hotel expenses which could have been avoided by prompt cancellation.

Excess Baggage:Microsoft will reimburse for excess baggage charges only:

• When Vendor travels with heavy or bulky materials or equipment necessary to perform Work;

• When the excess baggage consists of Microsoft property; or

• When Vendor travels on Microsoft business for more than 14 consecutive days.

Vendors Using MS Travel Program

Vendors utilizing the MS Travel Program are required to use program vendors whenever possible to take advantage of negotiated rates for air, hotel and car accommodations.
