Fax: 850-414-6122 I State Term Contract No. 973-001-00-1 Amendment No.1 THIS AMENDMENT, effective as of the last date signed below, is by and between the State of Florida Department of Management Services (the "Department") and the entity identified below as Contractor (the "Contractor") (collectively, the "Parties"), and amends State Term Contract No. 973-001-00-1 (the "Contract"). WHEREAS the Department is implementing an electronic procurement system, currently known as MyFloridaMarketPlace, (the "System") with the assistance of a third-party agent, Accenture LLP ("Accenture"); and . WHEREAS the Department wishes to include the Contractor and the Contract in the System; and WHEREAS the Contractor desires to participate in the System; and WHEREAS the Contract allows modifications in the event an electronic procurement system is implemented. THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained below, and other good and valuable consideration receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows: 1. Registration. The Department shall allow the Contractor, following effective registration with Accenture, to participate in the System. The Contractor shall register in the System within ten (10) business days of the effective date of this Amendment. Contractor shall visit www.mvfloridamarketolace.com and follow the appropriate instruction in order to register. 2. Transaction Fee. Effective April1, 2003, the Contract provision entitled "Surcharge Fee and Summary of Total Sales" is deleted and replaced with the following "Transaction Fee" section. This Transaction Fee is in lieu of, and not in addition to, the surcharge fee authorized by section 287.1345, Florida Statutes (2002). Transaction Fee The State of Florida, through the Department of Management Services, has instituted MyFloridaMarketPlace, a statewide eProcurement system. Pursuant to section 287.057(23), Florida Statutes (2002), all payments shall be assessed a Transaction Fee of one percent (1.0%), which the Contractor shall pay to the State. For payments within the State accounting system (FLAIR or its successor), the Transaction Fee shall, when possible, be automatically deducted from payments to the Contractor. If automatic deduction is not possible, the Contractor shall pay the State Term Contract No. 973-001-00-1 Amendment No. 1 Page 1 of4 4/16/03 I' Transaction Fee pursuant to Rule 60A-1.031(2), F.A.C. By submission of these reports and corresponding payments, Contractor certifies their correctness. All such reports and payments shall be subject to audit by the State or its designee. The Contractor shall receive a credit for any Transaction Fee paid by the Contractor for the purchase of any item(s) if such item(s) are returned to the Contractor through no fault, act, or omission of the Contractor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Transaction Fee is non-refundable when an item is rejected or returned, or declined, due to the Contractor's failure to perform or comply with specifications or requirements of the agreement. Contractors shall be responsible for reporting sales and paying user fees resulting from sales made by authorized resellers. Failure to comply with these requirements shall constitute grounds for declaring the vendor in default and recovering reprocurement costs from the vendor in addition to all outstanding fees. VENDORS DELINQUENT IN PAYING TRANSACTION FEES MAY BE EXCLUDED FROM CONDUCTING FUTURE BUSINESS WITH THE STATE. 3. Electronic Invoicing. Notwithstanding any provision of the Contract, the Contractor shall supply electronic invoices in lieu of paper-based invoices for those transactions processed through the System. Electronic invoices shall be submitted to the Customer through the Ariba Supplier Network (ASN) in one of the following mechanisms - EDI 810, cXML, or web-based invoice entry within the ASN. 4. Catalog Data. Accenture is responsible for converting Contract catalog information into a format supported by the System. To accomplish this conversion, the Contractor shall provide certain information in electronic format directly to Accenture; alternatively, the Contractor may follow the "punchout" solution described in more detail below. Within ten (10) days of written notice from Accenture, Contractor shall provide all information necessary to facilitate electronic purchases from this contract, or shall contract Accenture and begin work on the "punchout" solution described below. Such information may include, but is not limited to, Contractor name, SKU, brand/manufacturer, product name and brief description, unit of measure, and price. Contractor shall provide this information in the format requested by Accenture. No costs or expenses associated with providing this information shall be charged to the Department, Customers, or Accenture. With Contractor's timely assistance, Accenture shall create and maintain web-based placement of the requested contract information. "Punchout" Alternative The Contractor may offer, as an alternative to providing the information discussed above, an online "punchout" solution, in which the Customer accesses the Contractor's web site directly from the System, rather than the System maintaining the Contractor's data. This solution must State Term Contract No. 973-001-00-1 PunendmentNo.1 Page 2 of 4 4/16/03 allow the Customer to reach the Contractor's site, browse for contracted items only, and return to the System with a list of items ready to be inserted into a requisition.

The solution must conform to the technical specifications and implementation requirements provided by Accenture, and the Contractor must work with Accenture to ensure successful integration of the punchout solution into the System .

Warranty For the purposes of this section, the Contractor warrants and represents that it is authorized and empowered to and hereby grants the Department and Accenture the right and license to use, reproduce, transmit, distribute and publicly display within the System the information outlined above. In addition, the Contractor warrants and represents that it is authorized and empowered to and hereby grants the Department and Accenture the right and license to reproduce and display within the System the Contractor's trademarks, system marks, logos, trade dress or other branding designation that identifies the products made available by the Contractor under the Contract.

Additional Modifications. The Department reserves the right to further revise the collection and reporting requirements in conjunction with alterations to the System. 6. Conflict. In the event any of the terms herein conflict with the terms of the Contract, the terms of this Amendment shall control. All other terms of the Contract remain in full force and effect. Contractor waives and releases any and all claims for additional compensation arising out of or relating to this Amendment. State Term Contract No. 973-001-00-1 Amendment No. I Page 3 of 4 4/16/03 7.
