of the event giving rise to the claim. The notice must state with particularity: (1) the
nature of the alleged breach; (2) the amount Subrecipient seeks as damages; and (3) the
legal theory of recovery.
b. The chief administrative officer, or if designated in the Contract, another officer of the
GLO, shall examine the claim and any counterclaim and negotiate with Subrecipient in
an effort to resolve them. The negotiation must begin no later than the 120th day after the
date the claim is received, as is contemplated by Texas Government Code, Chapter 2260,
Section 2260.052.
c. If the negotiation under paragraph (b) above results in the resolution of some disputed
issues by agreement or in a settlement, the Parties shall reduce the agreement or
settlement to writing and each Party shall sign the agreement or settlement. A partial
settlement or resolution of a claim does not waive a Party's rights under this Contract as
to the parts of the claim that are not resolved.
d. If a claim is not entirely resolved under paragraph (b) above, on or before the 270th day
after the date the claim is filed with the GLO, unless the Parties agree in writing to an

resolution procedure. This dispute resolution procedure is Subrecipient's sole and
exclusive process for seeking a remedy for an alleged breach of contract by the GLO if
the Parties are unable to resolve their disputes as described in this section.
e. Nothing in the Contract shall be construed as a waiver of the state's or the GLO's
sovereign immunity, or, if applicable, the governmental immunity of Subrecipient. This
Contract shall not constitute or be construed as a waiver of any of the privileges, rights,
defenses, remedies, or immunities available to the State of Texas or Subrecipient. The
failure to enforce, or any delay in the enforcement, of any privileges, rights, defenses,
remedies, or immunities available to the State of Texas or, if applicable, of Subrecipient
under this Contract or under applicable law shall not constitute a waiver of such
privileges, rights, defenses, remedies or immunities or be considered as a basis for
estoppel. The GLO does not waive any privileges, rights, defenses, or immunities
available to it by entering into this Contract or by its conduct, or by the conduct of any
representative of the GLO, prior to or subsequent to entering into this Contract.
Subrecipient does not waive any privileges, rights, defenses, or immunities available to it
by entering into this Contract or by its conduct, or by the conduct of any representative of
the GLO, prior to or subsequent to entering into this Contract.
f. Except as otherwise provided by statute, rule, or regulation, compliance with the dispute
resolution process provided for in Texas Government Code, Chapter 2260, subchapter B
and incorporated by reference in subsection (a)-(d) above is a condition precedent to the
Subrecipient: (1) filing suit pursuant to Chapter 114 of the Civil Practices and Remedies
Code; or(2) initiating a contested case hearing pursuant to Subchapter C of Chapter 2260
of the Texas Government Code.
15. If Chapter 2271 of the Texas Government Code applies to this Contract, Subrecipient verifies
that it does not boycott Israel and will not boycott Israel during the term of the Contract.*

former executive head of the GLO.
19. Subrecipient represents and warrants that all statements and information prepared and
submitted in connection with this Contract are current, complete, true, and accurate.
Submitting a false statement or making a material misrepresentation during the performance
of this Contract is a material breach of contract and may void the Contract or be grounds for
its termination.
20. Pursuant to Section 2155.004(a) of the Texas Government Code, Subrecipient certifies that
neither Subrecipient nor any person or entity represented by Subrecipient has received
compensation from the GLO to participate in the preparation of the specifications or
solicitation on which this Contract is based. Under Section 2155.004(b) of the Texas
Government Code, Subrecipient certifies that the individual or business entity named in this
Contract is not ineligible to receive the specified Contract and acknowledges that the
Contract may be terminated and payment withheld if this certification is inaccurate. This
Section does not prohibit Subrecipient from providing free technical assistance.*

foreign terrorist organization, as prohibited by Section 2252.152 of the Texas Government
Code.*

contracts listed in that section, Subrecipient represents and warrants that none of its

and warrants that if a former employee of the GLO was employed by Subrecipient within one
year of the employee's leaving the GLO, then such employee will not perform services on
projects with Subrecipient that the employee worked on while employed by the GLO.*
23. The Contract shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Texas, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions. The venue of any suit arising under
the Contract is fixed in any court of competent jurisdiction of Travis County, Texas, unless
the specific venue is otherwise identified in a statute which directly names or otherwise
identifies its applicability to any Party.

31. 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. Subrecipient
shall ensure that this paragraph concerning the authority to audit funds received indirectly by
subcontractors through the Contract and the requirement to cooperate is included in any
subcontract it awards. The GLO may unilaterally amend the Contract to comply with any

This certification only applies to former state officers or employees whose state service or
employment ceased on or after September 1, 2015.
35. The GLO shall post this Contract to the GLO's website. Subrecipient understands that the
GLO will comply with the Texas Public Information Act (Texas Government Code Chapter
552, the "PIA"), as interpreted by judicial rulings and opinions of the Attorney General of the
State of Texas (the "Attorney General"). Information, documentation, and other material in
connection with this Contract may be subject to public disclosure pursuant to the PIA. In
accordance with Section 2252.907 of the Texas Government Code, Subrecipient is required
to make any information created or exchanged with the GLO or the State of Texas pursuant
to the Contract, and not otherwise excepted from disclosure under the PIA, available to the
GLO in portable document file (".pdf') format or any other format agreed upon between the
Parties that is accessible by the public at no additional charge to the GLO or the State of
Texas. By failing to mark any information that Subrecipient believes to be excepted from
disclosure as "confidential" or a"trade secret," Subrecipient waives any and all claims it may
make against the GLO for releasing such information without prior notice to Subrecipient.
The Attorney General will ultimately determine whether any information may be withheld
from release under the PIA. Subrecipient shall notify the GLO's Office of General Counsel
within twenty-four (24) hours of receipt of any third-party written requests for information
and forward a copy of said written requests to PIALegal@glo.texas.gov. If a request for
information was not written, Subrecipient shall forward the third party's contact information
