OTIS ELEVATOR COMPANY <br />ACKNOWLEDGEMENT TO OPEN ORDER CONTRACT <br />5 <br />AUDITS <br />Provider does not agree to any inspection, audit, or copy of any of Provider’s confidential, proprietary, or trade secret <br />information, data, or documents including, without limitation, financials. <br />INSPECTION <br />The final inspection of the elevator installation must be scheduled by the owner or owner’s representative with an <br />independent Qualified Elevator Inspector (QEI) when it is determined that the elevator is complete and ready for inspection. <br />Independent Contractor includes the cost for the State required elevator installation permit but not for the inspector. <br />Independent Contractor will not be responsible for any delays in securing the inspection. The inspection must be set for a <br />mutually agreeable date and time. Independent Contractor has included provisions to be present at one final inspection per <br />elevator only. Should multiple inspections be required due to the deficiencies of others, there will be a re inspection fee of <br />$800 per unit per inspection (this does not cover the QEI). <br />BUY AMERICAN <br />The equipment that Provider will provide under this Contract is produced from components procured from a variety of <br />sources located throughout the world. Therefore, Provider cannot confirm compliance with the Buy American Act (or <br />applicable Domestic Sourcing Act). However, these components are selected or designed to meet applicable U.S. standards. <br />COMMERCIAL ITEMS CLARIFICATION <br />The components, equipment and services proposed by Provider are commercial items as defined by the Federal Acquisition <br />Regulations (“FAR”) and the prices in any resulting contract and in any change proposal are based on Provider’s standard <br />commercial accounting policies and practices which do not consider any special requirements of the government cost <br />principles and do not meet the requirement of Part 31 of the FAR. Provider agrees only to perform a contract for the sale of <br />a commercial item on a fixed price basis. In addition, Provider will not agree to submit or certify to any cost pricing data <br />nor does Provider agree to any requirements to establish price reasonableness under FAR Part 15 or to meet any Cost <br />Accounting Standards. In stating its position, Provider refers to FAR Part 12- “Acquisition of Commercial Items.” In <br />addition, no federal government procurement regulations, such as FARs or DFARs, shall apply to this Contract except those <br />regulations expressly accepted in writing by Provider. <br />LEED <br />Provider will make good faith efforts to satisfy LEED requirements, if any, but cannot guarantee compliance with any <br />specific requirements or status certification. <br />ASSIGNMENT <br />Otis accepts the Customer’s right to assign this Contract, but only with Otis’ written approval, which will not be <br />unreasonably withheld. <br />PARTIAL INVALIDITY <br />The invalidity of one or more of the phrases, sentences, clauses, or paragraphs contained in this Contract shall not affect the <br />validity of the remaining portions. <br />We want to take this opportunity to thank you for this order. <br />OTIS ELEVATOR COMPANY <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: F3A72AFB-7E67-4665-B390-1E2F05A0DE9A
