Contracts are approved and awarded by a single governmental entity, Region 4 ESC, and are only available for use and benefit of all entities complying with state procurement laws and regulations (public and private schools, colleges and universities, cities, counties, non-profits, and all governmental entities). These types of contracts are commonly referred to as being "piggybackable".

Region 4 ESC's purchasing cooperative was established in 1997 as a means to increase their economic and operational efficiency. The purchasing cooperative has since evolved into a National Cooperative used to assist other government and public entities increase their economical and operational efficiency when procuring goods and services.

II. What is the role of The Cooperative Purchasing Network ("TCPN")

The Cooperative Purchasing Network ('TCPN") assists Region 4 ESC in helping other public agencies and non-profits reap the benefits of national leveraged pricing, with no cost to the member. TCPN leverages one of the largest pools of purchasing potential. This is accomplished by competitively soliciting proposals and awarding contracts for commonly purchased products and services. Through the TCPN solicitation process, Region 4 ESC awards contracts covering Facilities, Furniture, Office Supplies & Equipment, Security Systems, and Technology and other goods and services industries.

Ill. Purpose of TCPN

• Take advantage of state-of-the-art purchasing procedures to ensure the most competitive contracts.

• Provide competitive price and bulk purchasing for multiple government or public entities that yields economic benefits unobtainable by the individual entity.

• Provide quick and efficient delivery of goods and services. • Equalize purchasing power for smaller agencies that are unable to command the best contracts

for themselves. • Help in assisting with use of best business practices.

IV. Customer Service

• TCPN is dedicated to making our contracts successful for both our members and our awarded vendors.

• TCPN is committed to providing our members and awarded vendors with high quality service. • TCPN has dedicated staff available to answer questions, offer guidance and help in any way

possible.

SMALL BUSINESS SUBCONTRACTING PLAN

I. IDENTIFICATION DATA:

II. TYPE OF PLAN: (Check only one)

X COMMERCIAL PLAN: Covers the offerer's fiscal year and applies to the entire production of commercial items sold by either the entire company or a portion thereof (e.g., division, plant, or product line.) Used when the company sells large quantities of commercial items to many Government agencies, and goals are negotiated on a company-wide basis. Plan is done annually, effective during the company's fiscal year, approved by the first Federal agency awarding a contract for commercial supplies/services during the contractor's fiscal year, and is applicable to every additional Federal contract for commercial supplies/services awarded to that contractor during the same fiscal year. A new plan must be obtained and approved 30 days prior to the expiration of the current plan. The contractor must provide a copy of the approved plan to each agency contracting officer responsible for an ongoing contract subject to the plan.

INDIVIDUAL CONTRACT PLA.~: Covers the entire contract period /including option periods), applies to a specific contract, and has goals that are based on the offeror's planned subcontracting and purchasing in support of the specific contract, except that indirect costs incurred for corrunon or joint purposes may be allocated on a prorated basis to the contract. GSA requires that goals be re-negotiated for each option period.

INDIVIDUAL CONTRACT PLAN INCORPORATING MASTER PLAN: A Master plan containing all the required elements of an individual contract plan, except goals, may be incorporated into an individual contract plan providing the master plan has been approved (and the approval document from the approving agency is attached). A master plan must be approved once every three years. Once incorporated into a contract with specific goals, it is valid for the life of that contract.

III. GOALS:

Anixter Inc. provides the following separate dollar and percentage goals for small, hubzone small, small disadvantaged, women-owned small, veteran-owned

Page 1

small, and service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns. These goals are a percentage of the total subcontracting dollars.

1. Estimated TOTAL dollars planned to be subcontracted to all types of concerns (generally for both commercial and government business, in support of commercial items sold during company fiscal year):

Annual Comrnercial Purchases/Spend: $2,019,791,833 = 100% subcontracted

2. Total dollars planned to be subcontracted to large business concerns (or classified as other than small):

Annual Commercial Purchases/Spend: $1,577,457,422 = 78.1% of Total

3. Total dollars planned to be subcontracted to all small business concerns (including ANCs and Indian tribes), VOSB, SDVOSB, HUBZone, SDB (including

ANCs and Indian tribes), and WOSB small business concerns:

Annual Comrnercial Purchases/Spend: $442,334,411 = 21.9% of Total

4. Total dollars planned to be subcontracted to veteran-owned small business concerns (including service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses)

Annual Commercial Purchases/Spend: $20,197,918 = 1% of Total

5. Total dollars planned to be subcontracted to service-disabled veteran­owned small business concerns

(subset of VOSB above and cannot be higher than #4 above):

Annual Comrnercial Purchases/Spend: $16,562,293 = 0.82% of Total

6. Total dollars planned to be subcontracted to HUBZone small business concerns:

Annual Commercial Purchases/Spend: $20,197,918 = 1% of Total

7. Total dollars planned to be subcontracted to small disadvantaged business concerns (including ANCs and Indian tribes):

Annual Commercial Purchases/Spend: $20,197,918 = 1% of Total

8. Total dollars planned to be subcontracted to women-owned small business concerns:

Annual Commercial Purchases/Spend: $28,883,023 = 1.43% of Total

Page 2

The principal types of supplies and/or services that Anixter Inc. anticipates to be subcontracted and the identification of the type of business concern planned are as follows:

Business Category or Size

Supplies/Services Large Small HUBZ SDB WOSB VOSE SDVOSB Office Supplies X X X X X X Computer and Computer X X X X X X Peripheral Equipment and Software Merchant Wholesalers Stationary and Office X X X X X X Supplies Merchant Wholesalers Computer Storage Device X X X X X X Manufacturing Other Computer Peripheral X X X X X X Equipment Manufacturing Other Communications Equipment X X X X X X Manufacturing Electrical Apparatus and X X X X X X Equipment, Wiring Supplies and Related Equipment Merchant Wholesalers Hardware Merchant Wholesalers X X X X X X General Freight Trucking, Local X X X X X X General Freight Trucking, X X X X X X Distance, Truckload Radio and Television X X X X X X Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing Administrative Management and X X X X X X General Management Consulting Services

Anixter Inc. used the following method to develop the subcontracting goals and to determine the areas to be subcontracted:

Potential allocation of work was determined by the principle of optimal blending of prime and subcontractor capabilities. Anixter Inc. will seek to subcontract with businesses, where subcontracting opportunities exist, for special services that supplement or complement our capabilities. The percentage goals are based on an internal analysis of past spending patterns.

Anixter Inc. analyzes the possibility of utilizing all small businesses to fulfill the contract requirements. This analysis included an analysis of areas within the SOW that could be set-aside for small, small disadvantaged, small woman-owned, small HUBZone, small veteran-owned and small service­disabled veteran-owned businesses. Anixter Inc. then specifically identified potential businesses within this group with the technical expertise and resources necessary to satisfy contract requirements.

Page3

Anixter Inc. will identify potential subcontractors using resources such as the Small Business Administration regional offices, SBA's Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS), the System for Award Management, Dun and Bradstreet database services, and Anixter's current database of suppliers and IT industry databases that list small and small disadvantaged firms.

The main impediment to increasing spending in certain small business categories is that the vast majority of Anixter's spending is for manufactured goods for resale in its distribution channel. For example, it is extremely difficult to find manufacturers of CCTV, surveillance or networking products that are small HUBZone, service-disabled veteran-owned, or veteran-owned businesses.

For example, a November 2015 search in DSBS for small service-disabled veteran-owned companies under NAICS 334220 (Radio, TV and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing) does yield 350 results. However, on closer inspection, the vast majority are resellers of goods, services companies or makers of subcomponents rather than end user commercial products. Actual manufacturers of commercial products under this category are extremely rare.

Anixter Inc. will make a good faith effort to meet the agreed upon goals, but limitations such as these have resulted in modest goals for some small business types.

Indirect and overhead costs ~-f~HAVE BEEN (or) HAVE NOT BEEN included in the dollar and percentage subcontracting goals stated above.

Competition Given the Company's role as an aggregator of many different types of products from many different sources and because these products are sold to many different industry groups, there is no well-defined industry group against which the Company competes. The Company views the competitive environment as highly fragmented with hundreds of distributors and manufacturers that sell products directly or through multiple distribution channels to end users or other resellers. There is significant competition within each end market and geography

primarily on breadth of products, quality, services, price and geographic proximity. Anixter believes that it has a significant competitive advantage due to its comprehensive product and service offerings, highly-skilled workforce and global distribution network. The Company believes its global distribution platform provides a competitive advantage to serving multinational customers' needs. The Company's operations and logistics platform gives it the ability to ship orders from inventory for delivery within 24 to 48 hours to all major global markets. In addition, the Company has common systems and processes throughout much of its operations in 52 countries that provide its customers and suppliers with global consistency Anixter enhances its value proposition to both key suppliers and customers through its specifications and testing facilities ad numerous quality an assurance certification programs such as ISO 9001 and QSO 9000. The Company uses its testing facilities in conjunction with suppliers to develop product specifications and to test quality compliance. At its data network-testing lab located at the Company's suburban Chicago headquarters, the Company also works with customers to design and test various product configurations to optimize network design and performance specific to the customers' needs. At its various regional quality labs, the Company offers OEMs a comprehensive range of mechanical testing and materials characterization for product testing and failure investigation. Most of the Company' competitors are privately held, and as a result, reliable competitive information is not available.

Green Initiatives

We are committed to helping to build a cleaner future! As our business grows, we want to make sure we minimize our impact on the Earth's climate. So we are taking every step we can to implement innovative and responsible environmental practices throughout Region 4 ESC to reduce our carbon footprint, reduce waste, promote energy conservation, ensure efficient computing, and much more. We would like vendors to partner with us in this enterprise. To that effort, we ask Offerors to provide their companies environmental policy and/or green initiative.

We're committed to helping to build a cleaner future! :cording to the U.S. Census Bureau, the world population is expanding at a mind-boggling rate. The world

reached 1 billion people in 1800; 2 billion by 1922; and over 6 billion by 2000. It is estimated that the population will swell to over 9 billion by 2050. That means that if the world's natural resources were evenly distributed, people in 2050 will only have 25% of the resources per capita that people in 1950 had. The world has a fixed amount of natural resources - some of which are already depleted. So as population growth greatly strains our finite resources, there are fewer resources available. If we intend to leave our children and grandchildren with the same standard ofliving we have enjoyed, we must preserve the foundation of that standard of living. We save for college educations, orthodontia, and weddings, but what about saving clean air, water, fuel sources and soil for future generations? As our business grows, we want to make sure we minimize our impact on the Earth's climate. So we're taking every step we can to implement innovative and responsible environmental practices throughout TCPN to reduce our carbon footprint, reduce waste, energy conservation, ensure efficient computing and much more. To that effort, we ask respondents to provide their companies environmental policy and/or green initiative.

28. Please provide your company's environmental policy and/or green initiative.

Green Initiatives

We are committed to helping to build a cleaner future! As our business grows, we want to make sure we minimize our impact on the Earth's climate. So we are taking every step we can to implement innovative and responsible environmental practices throughout Region 4 ESC to reduce our carbon footprint, reduce waste, promote energy conservation, ensure efficient computing, and much more. We would like vendors to partner with us in this enterprise. To that effort, we ask Offerers to provide their companies environmental policy and/or green initiative.

·e•re committed to helping to build a cleaner future! .<cording to the U.S. Census Bureau, the world population is expanding at a mind-boggling rate. The world

reached I billion people in 1800; 2 billion by 1922; and over 6 billion by 2000. It is estimated that the population will swell to over 9 billion by 2050. That means that if the world's natural resources were evenly distributed, people in 2050 will only have 25% of the resources per capita that people in 1950 had. The world has a fixed amount of natural resources - some of which are already depleted. So as population growth greatly strains our finite resources, there are fewer resources available. If we intend to leave our children and grandchildren with the same standard ofliving we have enjoyed, we must preserve the foundation of that standard of living. We save for college educations, orthodontia, and weddings, but what about saving clean air, water, fuel sources and soil for future generations? As our business grows, we want to make sure we minimize our impact on the Earth's climate. So we're taking every step we can to implement innovative and responsible environmental practices throughout TCPN to reduce our carbon footprint, reduce waste, energy conservation, ensure efficient computing and much more. To that effort, we ask respondents to provide their companies environmental policy and/or green initiative.

28. Please provide your company's environmental policy and/or green initiative.

Corporate Sustainability

·P·r.-.-od-1..ict:s: .... Technology. servie::-e:s .• D-el.iv..er.sd ·Globally.

A'fllfit. CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY

In 2010, Anixter created the position of Senior Director Corporate Sustainability, which oversees a 14 member

global steering committee that includes representatives from all business divisions and support departments

that report to the President/CEO.

Anixter's corporate sustainability program seeks to continuously improve business processes to control and

reduce the impact associated with its targeted environmental aspects of energy, waste, materials and natural

resources, and transportation. By targeting measurable results within each environmental aspect combined

with using A Sustainable Path5M Approach, which focuses on the economic, environmental and social impacts

of the organization, Anixter balances corporate social responsibility and return on investment.

ISO 14001: ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Anixter currently operates 30 locations that are ISO 14001 certified, and it is targeting 13 additional facilities for

certification in 2011 and 30 in 2012.

ENERGY

In its offices, warehouses and data center, Anixter has installed new products and processes to reduce energy

consumption, which helps to reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions and lower operating costs. From

lighting controls to energy monitoring systems, Anixter is looking at new and innovative ways to lower its

energy use.

Anixter's data center in Glenview, IL, features new state-of-the-art equipment and uses various consolidation

and virtualization techniques to reduce power consumption and space. Anixter's commitment to sustainability

extends to its customers through various educational courses within Anixter's Data Center College™ and

seminars such as the Anixter Seminar Series™ that focus on data center design considerations and

techniques to maximize power and cooling savings and provide greater efficiencies.

By using Anixter's ipConnected Enterprise5M design for lighting and control systems in 33 warehouses, Anixter

has reduced its overall electricity costs by an average of 40 percent. Anixter is planning to implement similar

lighting systems in at least 11 additional facilities in 2011. In addition, Anixter's Willebroek, Belgium, facility is

on target to purchase 45 percent of its annual electricity requirements from rooftop solar panels in 2011.

Anixter Inc. Corporate Sustainability Page 2 of5

A'tllril. In Alsip, Illinois, Anixter's 457,000-square-foot (42,457 square meters}, LEED® certified North American

regional distribution center received several structural upgrades to increase energy efficiency. These upgrades

included a zero air-pressure ventilation system, 170 skylights and numerous side-panel windows. These

upgrades generated an estimated energy cost savings of 25 percent over the previous non-LEED certified

building.

At its other distribution facilities in North America, Anixter has installed 22 energy monitoring systems that

control and schedule the HVAC systems. By using statistical analysis to reduce operational and maintenance

costs, the systems improve energy efficiency by monitoring the health of the HVAC systems. The system also

monitors electric meters within high-usage areas of the buildings to track energy consumption and reduction

strategies. Anixter is planning 11 additional installations in 2011.

In June 2011, Anixter received a LEED Silver certification for its 195,000-square-foot (18,116 square meters)

Edmonton, Canada, facility. Energy-saving measures include energy-efficient lighting controls, use of radiant

heat lamps to quickly warm moderately used areas within the building on-demand, no-idle policies for receiving

and delivery trucks when the weather permits, and power-monitoring meters to analyze and reduce energy

use. Anixter is considering LEED certification for additional facilities in 2011 and beyond.

In 2011, energy audits and/or air conditioning energy assessments will be conducted at 11 U.K. buildings. The

assessments will seek to identify inefficiencies and improvement opportunities.

WASTE

Anixter is using waste brokers in North America and the U.K. to improve operating efficiencies and expand

recycling. In 2010, Anixter recycled more than 2 million pounds (907,194 kg) of cardboard and more than 1.9

million pounds (861,834 kg) of wood at 126 North American warehouses. Anixter operates similar programs at

other global warehouses in addition to specialized plastic and metal recycling programs. Anixter also works

with various organizations to repair or recycle damaged wooden pallets.

Anixter's warehouses also help customers minimize waste on their job sites. Through its READY!6M

Deployment Services, Anixter promotes packaging waste reduction by removing items from boxes and by

consolidating shipments into single kits, which helps to reduce packaging waste at job sites. In 2010, Anixter's

READY! Deployment Services eliminated more than 32,000 pounds (14,515 kg) of packaging waste at

Anixter Inc. Corporate Sustainability Page 3 of5

customers' job sites and diverted the waste from landfills to certified recycling centers. By using Anixter's

READY! Deployment Services, customers can potentially earn two LEED points.

In the U.S., Anixter operates an asset recovery warehouse that consolidates obsolete or broken electronic

equipment, such as laptops, servers, power cords and keyboards, from field locations and arranges for their

consolidated disposal. In 2010, Anixter sent more than 14,400 pounds (6,532 kg) of electronic waste to a U.S.

recycling partner for certified disposal. In 2010, Anixter U.K. sent more than 6,800 pounds (3,085 kg} of

electronic waste material to a recycling partner for certified disposal. Other Anixter global locations may employ

other disposal techniques, such as in Toronto, Canada, where the location donates its used electronic

equipment to charities, which in turn redistribute them for use in schools, libraries or other nonprofit

organizations.

MATERIALS AND NATURAL RESOURCES

In 2010, five of Anixter's largest U.S. warehouses purchased new Kraft paper-packing machines. Most Kraft

paper is made from 100 percent recycled content. This program helps minimize Anixter's environment impact

while simultaneously providing additional protection to boxed materials during shipping.

Anixter procures corrugated packaging, bubble wrap and shrink wrap that are manufactured from a large

percentage of recycled content to help minimize the use of virgin materials. For example, Anixter's U.S.

operations alone used more than 1 million pounds (435,597 kg) of corrugated packaging that contains 40 to 60

percent recycled content.

Effective June 2011, all of Anixter's U.S. locations will purchase remanufactured toner cartridges for office

printers when this option is available. By purchasing remanufactured toner cartridges, Anixter will eliminate

thousands of gallons of oil a year from being used in the manufacturing of new cartridges. By recycling empty

cartridges, Anixter will prevent tens of thousands of pounds of metal and plastic from going into landfills each

year. Although similar programs are currently in place within Canada and the U.K., these programs will be

expanded as well as encompass all global locations. In addition, Anixter plans to roll out various paper

reduction strategies worldwide, from duplexing multipage print jobs to converting various system-generated

print reports into electronic files.

Anixter Inc. Corporate Sustainability Page4 of5

A.,IX:fa:l. TRANSPORTATION

In 2010, more than 80 percent of Anixter's U.S. and preferred international outsourced transportation spend

was with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's certified SmartWay carriers. Anixter is beta testing

monitoring devices in cars, vans and trucks in the U.S. and the U.K. to further improve fuel economy. In 2010,

Anixter converted 41 percent of its leased-fleet replacement vehicles in the U.S. from six- to four-cylinder

models to improve fuel efficiency. Anixter's fleet department also offers employees vehicles that are compatible

for flex-fuel options, such as E85 ethanol fuel blend.

In other efforts to reduce fossil fuel consumption, Anixter is planning to roll out a no-idle program at its

warehouses worldwide. By asking truck drivers to turn off their engines while they are waiting for materials to

be loaded or unloaded, Anixter will help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

TAB 4 Product/Services

Appendix B

Anixter is purposing the supply of the wiring components needed for the installation of Security Systems Infrastructure, Telecommunication, and Local Area Network devices. We do not provide installation services.

We feel that this will add value to TCPN and their membership by allowing the end user who in many cases has their own installation staff. Only a small number of states have a contract available to allow for purchases of wiring materials. This will streamline their purchasing process resulting in savings of both time & money.

US Communities has been offering a material only contract for many years with little to no competition from other national cooperatives.

An award to Anixter will offer additional value to TCPN both in breath of the products & services and revenue.

Attached is a sampling of the more popular manufacturers. More manufacturers can be added based on the customer’s need.

Implementation of House Bill 1295 Certificate of Interested Parties (Form 1295):

In 2015, the Texas Legislature adopted House Bill 1295, which added section 2252.908 of the Government Code. The law states that a governmental entity or state agency may not enter into certain contracts with a business entity unless the business entity submits a disclosure of interested parties to the governmental entity or state agency at the time the business entity submits the signed contract to the governmental entity or state agency. The law applies only to a contract of a governmental entity or state agency that either (1) requires an action or vote by the governing body of the entity or agency before the contract may be signed or (2) has a value of at least $1 million. The disclosure requirement applies to a contract entered into on or after January 1, 2016.

The Texas Ethics Commission was required to adopt rules necessary to implement that law, prescribe the disclosure of interested parties form, and post a copy of the form on the commission's website. The commission adopted the Certificate of Interested Parties form (Form 1295) on October 5, 2015. The commission also adopted new rules (Chapter 46) on November 30, 2015, to implement the law. The commission does not have any additional authority to enforce or interpret House Bill 1295.

Filing Process:

Staring on January 1, 2016, the commission will make available on its website a new filing application that must be used to file Form 1295. A business entity must use the application to enter the required information on Form 1295 and print a copy of the completed form, which will include a certification of filing that will contain a unique certification number. An authorized agent of the business entity must sign the printed copy of the form and have the form notarized. The completed Form 1295 with the certification of filing must be filed with the governmental body or state agency with which the business entity is entering into the contract.

The governmental entity or state agency must notify the commission, using the commission's filing application, of the receipt of the filed Form 1295 with the certification of filing not later than the 30th day after the date the contract binds all parties to the contract. The commission will post the completed Form 1295 to its website within seven business days after receiving notice from the governmental entity or state agency.

Information regarding how to use the filing application will be available on this site starting on January 1, 2016.

C. 271 POLITICAL CONTRIBUTION DISCLOSURE FORM Public Agency Instructions

This page provides guidance to public agencies entering into contracts with business entities that are required to file Political Contribution Disclosure forms with the agency. It is not intended to be provided to contractors. What follows are instructions on the use of form local units can provide to contractors that are required to disclose political contributions pursuant to N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.26 (P.L. 2005, c. 271, s.2). Additional information on the process is available in Local Finance Notice 2006-1 (www.nj.gov/dca/lqs/lfns/lfnmenu.shtml).

1. The disclosure is required for all contracts in excess of $17,500 that are not awarded pursuant to a "fair and open" process (N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.7).

2. Due to the potential length of some contractor submissions, the public agency should consider allowing data to be submitted in electronic form (i.e., spreadsheet, pdffile, etc.). Submissions must be kept with the contract documents or in an appropriate computer file and be available for public access. The form is worded to accept this alternate submission. The text should be amended if electronic submission will not be allowed.

3. The submission must be received from the contractor and on file at least 1 O days prior to award of the contract. Resolutions of award should reflect that the disclosure has been received and is on file.

4. The contractor must disclose contributions made to candidate and party committees covering a wide range of public agencies, including all public agencies that have elected officials in the county of the public agency, state legislative positions, and various state entities. The Division of Local Government Services recommends that contractors be provided a list of the affected agencies. This will assist contractors in determining the campaign and political committees of the officials and candidates affected by the disclosure.

a. The Division has prepared model disclosure forms for each county. They can be downloaded from the "County PCD Forms" link on the Pay-to-Play web site at www.nj.gov/dca/lgs/p2p. They will be updated from time-to-time as necessary.

b. A public agency using these forms should edit them to properly reflect the correct legislative district(s). As the forms are county-based, they list all legislative districts in each county. Districts that do not represent the public agency should be removed from the lists.

c. Some contractors may find it easier to provide a single list that covers all contributions, regardless of the county. These submissions are appropriate and should be accepted.

d. The form may be used "as-is", subject to edits as described herein. e. The "Contractor Instructions" sheet is intended to be provided with the form. It is recommended

that the Instructions and the form be printed on the same piece of paper. The form notes that the Instructions are printed on the back of the form; where that is not the case, the text should be edited accordingly.

f. The form is a Word document and can be edited to meet local needs, and posted for download on web sites, used as an e-mail attachment, or provided as a printed document.

5. It is recommended that the contractor also complete a "Stockholder Disclosure Certification." This will assist the local unit in its obligation to ensure that contractor did not make any prohibited contributions to the committees listed on the Business Entity Disclosure Certification in the 12 months prior to the contract. (See Local Finance Notice 2006-7 for additional information on this obligation) A sample Certification form is part of this package and the instruction to complete it is included in the Contractor Instructions. NOTE: This section is not applicable to Boards of Education.

C. 271 POLITICAL CONTRIBUTION DISCLOSURE FORM Contractor Instructions

Business entities (contractors) receiving contracts from a public agency that are NOT awarded pursuant to a "fair and open" process (defined at N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20. 7) are subject to the provisions of P.L. 2005, c. 271, s.2 (N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.26). This law provides that 1 O days prior to the award of such a contract, the contractor shall disclose contributions to:

• any State, county, or municipal committee of a political party • any legislative leadership committee· • any continuing political committee (a.k.a., political action committee) • any candidate committee of a candidate for, or holder of, an elective office:

o of the public entity awarding the contract o of that county in which that public entity is located o of another public entity within that county o or of a legislative district in which that public entity is located or, when the public entity is a

county, of any legislative district which includes all or part of the county. The disclosure must list reportable contributions to any of the committees that exceed $300 per election cycle that were made during the 12 months prior to award of the contract. See N.J.S.A. 19:44A-8 and 19:44A-16 for more details on reportable contributions.

N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.26 itemizes the parties from whom contributions must be disclosed when a business entity is not a natural person. This includes the following:

• individuals with an "interest" ownership or control of more than 10% of the profits or assets of a business entity or 10% of the stock in the case of a business entity that is a corporation for profit

• all principals, partners, officers, or directors of the business entity or their spouses • any subsidiaries directly or indirectly controlled by the business entity • IRS Code Section 527 New Jersey based organizations, directly or indirectly controlled by the

business entity and filing as continuing political committees, (PACs). When the business entity is a natural person, "a contribution by that person's spouse or child, residing therewith, shall be deemed to be a contribution by the business entity." [N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.26(b)] The contributor must be listed on the disclosure. Any business entity that fails to comply with the disclosure provisions shall be subject to a fine imposed by ELEC in an amount to be determined by the Commission which may be based upon the amount that the business entity failed to report. The enclosed list of agencies is provided to assist the contractor in identifying those public agencies whose elected official and/or candidate campaign committees are affected by the disclosure requirement. It is the contractor's responsibility to identify the specific committees to which contributions may have been made and need to be disclosed. The disclosed information may exceed the minimum requirement. The enclosed form, a content-consistent facsimile, or an electronic data file containing the required details (along with a signed cover sheet) may be used as the contractor's submission and is disclosable to the public under the Open Public Records Act. The contractor must also complete the attached Stockholder Disclosure Certification. This will assist the agency in meeting its obligations under the law.

NOTE: This section does not apply to Board of Education contracts. • N.J.S.A. 19:44A-3(s): "The term "legislative leadership committee" means a committee established, authorized to be established, or designated by the President of the Senate, the Minority Leader of the Senate, the Speaker of the General Assembly or the Minority Leader of the General Assembly pursuant to section 16 of P .L.1993, c.65 (C.19:44A-10.1) for the purpose of receiving contributions and making expenditures."
