CONTRACT PERIOD: (Cont'd) Vehicles ordered during the contract period and subsequently cancelled by an agency, may be purchased by other eligible agencies even though the contract ordering period may have lapsed. This is subject to the approval of the Office of General Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this agreement shall be terminated by the issuance of a contract award for the same or substitute commodity for the next applicable contract period.

GUARANTEE: The vehicle shall be of new and of current production. Any combination of options and colors, as ordered must be available as a factory order. Delivery of dealer stocked trucks will not be accepted. The manufacturer's standard warranty shall apply to the vehicle and warranty service shall be gratis at any dealers shop anywhere within New York State. The contractor shall guarantee all equipment furnished for a period of one (1) year from date of delivery if such equipment is not included in the vehicle manufacturer's standard warranty. This guarantee shall include defective materials and workmanship. If, during this period, repairs and/or parts replacement become necessary due to defective materials and workmanship, all labor and material shall be furnished by the contractor at no cost to the State.

RESERVATION: The State reserves the right to negotiate lower pricing, or to advertise for bids, any unanticipated excessive purchase. An "unanticipated excessive purchase" is defined as an unexpected order for a contract item or a combination of contract items totaling more than 10 units.

EXTENSION OF PRICES: Political subdivisions and others authorized by law including certain non-profit independent post secondary, secondary and elementary educational institutions may participate in contracts resulting from this bid opening. Recent eligibility has also been extended to certain charitable organizations, non-profit cemetery corporations, agricultural societies, youth fairs and non-public hospitals and health related facilities. Upon request, all eligible non-State agencies must furnish contractors with the proper tax exemption certificates.

ASSIGNMENT OF MONIES: Approval of the Commissioner is not required for the assignment of monies due for contract deliveries. On deliveries made to State agencies, such assignments must be filed by the contractor directly with the Office of the State Comptroller. For political subdivisions and other non State facilities authorized by law to participate in State contracts, the contractor must notify these ordering facilities directly of any assignment of monies due.

PAYMENTS OF INTEREST: The payment of interest on certain payments due and owed by a State agency may be made in accordance with the criteria established by Chapter 153, Laws of 1984 (Article 11A of New York State Finance Law) and the Comptroller's Bulletin No. A-91. The terms of Chapter 153 apply only to procurements by and the consequent payment obligations of State agencies. Neither expressly nor by any implication is the new statute applicable to non-State agency purchasers. Nor, of course, is the Office of General Services or the Office of the State Comptroller responsible for payments (see General Specification Clause 69) on any purchases made by a participating political subdivision or other authorized entity.

EXTENSION OF USE: Any contract resulting from this bid solicitation may be extended to additional States or governmental jurisdictions upon mutual written agreement between New York State (the lead contracting State) and the contractor. Political subdivisions and other authorized entities within each participating State or governmental jurisdiction may also participate in any resultant contract if such State normally allows participation by such entities.

PAYMENT (State Agencies): Because of constantly increasing finance charges and other costs to the contractor it is imperative that ordering agencies make every effort to process the vouchers for payment by the Comptroller, within a reasonable period of time. However, if there are any problems which will delay payment, the contractor should be notified. When a vehicle is delivered the agency may process the voucher for the full amount of the contract price if, in its opinion, the vehicle is in compliance with the specifications. However, if poor workmanship and/or minor deviations exist, the agency may withhold up to 20% of the contract price upon delivery and delay payment of the balance until the contractor has made all necessary corrections. The Agency may withhold the full amount of the contract price if, in its opinion, the vehicle contains major deviations from specification.

PAYMENT (School Districts): School districts purchasing from contracts resulting from this bid opening shall meet the following conditions:

1. School buses shall be inspected by the Department of Transportation Traffic and Safety Division within two weeks after delivery by the contractor.

2. Payment shall be made within 45 days after regular certificate (not short term) is issued by the Department of Transportation, Traffic and Safety Division.

Failure of any school district to adhere to the above requirement may result in disqualification from participation in future State contracts.

Any unilateral limitations/restrictions imposed by the contractor and/or manufacturer on eligible contract users will be grounds for cancellation of the contract. If a contract, or any portion thereof, is canceled for this reason, any additional costs incurred by the eligible purchaser will be borne by the contractor.

THIRD PARTY FINANCING: The contract, or any part thereof, to be entered into as a result of this bid letting may be financed through a separate agreement with a third financing party. The contractor agrees and acknowledges the State's ability for third party financing, in whole or in part under the terms of this bid letting.

PERFORMANCE BOND: As proof of Contractor's ability to observe and perform the obligations hereunder assumed and to ensure timely delivery of all units pursuant to the Contract, Contractor shall be required to furnish a surety bond in a form, and by a company, acceptable to the Commissioner of General Services in the sum of 10% of the awarded contract. Said bond shall be furnished, within thirty (30) days of the contract award, and shall be delivered to, and held by, the Commissioner. Said bond shall remain in effect for a period of one year from and after the date of delivery and acceptance of the final unit under the contract. The purpose of said bond is to insure that all units delivered under this contract shall meet the bid specifications, that prompt service and repairs will be made to correct any defects in parts or workmanship; and that delivery of all such units shall be made in a timely manner in accordance with the bid specifications and contract award with allowance made for delays or failures as defined in Paragraph 79 of the General Specifications. Said surety bond shall not be deemed or construed to limit the contractor's liability for such claims, if any, made by any purchaser for Contractor's failure to perform its obligations hereunder and the Contractor shall remain liable to purchasers for any resulting deficiencies. Furthermore, the amount of said bond furnished pursuant hereto shall in no way be deemed or construed to limit, release or absolve the Contractor from any other express or implied liabilities which he might have under the contract to individual purchasers or third parties. Claims against the Contractor' surety shall be made in the following manner: Within fifteen (15) days after the build-out date, said date being set by the manufacturer, the Contractor shall forward to the Commissioner a complete summary of the total number of units ordered under this contract, and shall include a breakdown of total units ordered by each purchaser.

Reimbursement from the bond shall only be made when a written demand from the purchaser has been received by the Commissioner, which is based on a final judgment, order or settlement between the parties. Therefore, any claim by a political subdivision, including school districts, or by a state or non-state agency, or participating group, must first be separately pursued and resolved by said subdivision, agency or group. In the event that such claim is reduced to a final judgment, order or settlement, a copy of which must accompany the demand letter to the Commissioner, a purchaser under this contract will be entitled to reimbursement of that amount, up to the purchaser's pro-rata interest in the bond. Any deficiency may thereafter be pursued separately by the purchaser against the Contractor.
