The University agrees to give written notice of termination to contractor at least 30 days prior to the end of its current fiscal year, and shall give such notice for a greater period prior to the end of such fiscal year as may be provided in this contract, except that such notice shall not be required prior to 90 days before the end of such fiscal year.

The termination of the contract pursuant to this paragraph shall not cause any penalty to be charged to the agency or the contractor.
  4. Disclaimer of Liability: No provision of this contract will be given effect that attempts to require the State of Kansas or the University to defend, hold harmless, or indemnify any contractor or third party for any acts or omissions. The liability of the State of Kansas and the University is defined under the Kansas Tort Claims Act (K.S.A. 75-6101 et seq.).
  5. Anti-Discrimination Clause: Contractor agrees: (a) to comply with the Kansas Act Against Discrimination (K.S.A. 44-1001 et seq.) and the Kansas Age Discrimination in Employment Act (K.S.A. 44-1111 et seq.) and the applicable provisions of the Americans With Disabilities Act (42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq.) (ADA), and Kansas Executive Order No. 19-02, and to not discriminate against any person because of race, color, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, religion, national origin, ancestry, age, military or veteran status, disability status, marital or family status, genetic information, or political affiliation that is unrelated to the person's ability to reasonably perform the duties of a particular job or position; (b) to include in all solicitations or advertisements for employees, the phrase "equal opportunity employer"; (c) to comply with the reporting requirements set out at K.S.A. 44-1031 and K.S.A. 44-1116; (d) to include those provisions in every subcontract or purchase order so that they are binding upon such subcontractor or vendor; (e) that a failure to comply with the reporting requirements of (c) above or if the contractor is found guilty of any violation of such acts by the Kansas Human Rights Commission, such violation shall constitute a breach of contract and the agreement may be cancelled, terminated or suspended, in whole or in part, by the contracting state agency or the Kansas Department of Administration; (f) if it is determined that the Contractor has violated applicable provisions of ADA, such violation shall constitute a breach of contract and the agreement may be cancelled, terminated or suspended, in whole or in part, by the University or the Kansas Department of Administration.

Insurance: The University shall not be required to purchase any insurance against loss or damage to property or any other subject matter relating to this contract, nor shall this contract require it to establish a "self-insurance" fund to protect against any such loss or damage. Subject to the provisions of the Kansas Tort Claims Act (K.S.A. 75-6101 et seq.), Contractor shall bear the risk of any loss or damage to any property in which Contractor holds title.

  13. The Eleventh Amendment: The Eleventh Amendment is an inherent and incumbent protection with the State of Kansas and need not be reserved, but prudence requires the State and the University to reiterate that nothing related to this contract shall be deemed a waiver of the Eleventh Amendment.
  14. Campaign Contributions / Lobbying: Funds provided through a grant award or contract shall not be given or received in exchange for the making of a campaign contribution. No part of the funds provided through this contract shall be used to influence or attempt to influence an officer or employee of the University or any State of Kansas agency or a member of the Legislature regarding any pending legislation or the awarding, extension, continuation, renewal, amendment or modification of any government contract, grant, loan, or cooperative agreement.
  15. Privacy of Student Records: Contractor understands that the University is subject to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (20 U.S.C. 搂 1232g) (FERPA) and agrees to handle any student education records it receives pursuant to the contract in a manner that enables the University to be compliant with FERPA and its regulations. Contractor agrees to protect the privacy of student data and educational records in a commercially reasonable manner and shall not transmit, share, or disclose any data about a student without the student's written consent, except to other University officials who seek the information within the context of his/her professionally assigned responsibilities and used within the context of official University business. Contractor shall promptly report to the University any request for or improper disclosure of University's student educational records.
  16. Export Control: Contractor agree to comply with all U.S. Laws relating to the transfer, export, or re-export of technology and technical data, as defined in the export controls under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) 22 Code of Federal Regulations Parts 120-130 or the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) 15 Code of Federal Regulations Parts 730-774. The release of information to any employee or other person, who is not a U.S. Citizen or permanent resident, as well as to corporations or to any other entity, organization, or group that is not incorporated or otherwise organized to do business in the United States may require advanced written authorization from the appropriate U.S. agency. Contractor shall notify University in writing prior to disclosure of any technical data or other items subject to EAR or ITAR and identify the export controlled items at issue and the applicable categories and subcategories of the United States Munitions List and/or Export Control Classification Number(s). University reserves the right to decline to accept any items or information controlled under ITAR or EAR.
  17. Certification: Contractor certifies that to the best of its knowledge neither it nor any of their principals are presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, the subject of an indictment involving the criminal statutes enumerated in 22 Code of Federal Regulations 搂120.6, or otherwise declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency. Contractor shall provide immediate written notice to the University if at any time it learns that this certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.
  18. Facility Access: To the extent Contractor is required to be on the University's premises in the performance of any contract, Contractor and its representatives will adhere to the University's reasonable safety and security policies and procedures, and will use commercially reasonable efforts not to interfere with the University's regular operations. Contractor further agrees to, upon request, include the University as an additional insured on its general liability insurance policy on a primary and non-contributory basis and provide the University with a certificate of insurance.
  19. Accounts Receivable Set-Off Program: If during the course of this contract Contractor is found to owe a debt to the State of Kansas, University payments to Contractor may be intercepted / set-off by the State of Kansas as set forth by law. Notice of the setoff action will be provided to Contractor. Pursuant to K.S.A. 75-6201 et seq., Contractor shall have the opportunity to challenge the validity of the debt. If the debt is undisputed, Contractor shall credit the University's account showing payment has been made in an amount equal to the funds intercepted. K.S.A. 75-6201 et seq. allows the Director of Accounts and Reports to set off University payments to Contractor against debts owed by Contractor to the State of Kansas. Payments set off in this manner constitute lawful payment for services or goods received. Contractor benefits fully from the payment because its obligation to the State of Kansas is reduced by the amount subject to setoff.
  20. Electronic Signature: The parties agree that the contract may be signed with electronic signatures. If an electronic signature is used, the parties agree that it is the legally binding equivalent to the signing party's handwritten signature. Whenever either party executes an electronic signature on the contract, it has the same validity and meaning as a handwritten signature. The parties agree that neither party will, at any time in the future, repudiate the meaning of an electronic signature or claim that an electronic signature is not legally binding.
