DATA OWNERSHIP Eligible Organization’s data shall remain the exclusive property of Eligible Organization and Eligible Organization shall retain all rights, including intellectual property rights in and to such data. Supplier will use Eligible Organization’s data only for the purpose of fulfilling its duties under the Master Agreement or an Order under the Master Agreement, and for Eligible Organization’s sole benefit, and will not share such data with or disclose it to any third party without the prior written consent of Eligible Organization or as otherwise required by law.

38. ARBITRATION MHEC shall reject arbitration clauses in any Master Agreement or license.

39. DEBARMENT AND SUSPENSION Supplier represents and certifies that neither it nor its principals are presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in the transaction (contract), by any government department or agency. Furthermore, Supplier shall provide notice to MHEC if it becomes debarred or suspended at any point during the duration of any resulting agreement.

40. RECORDS AND AUDIT HP shall retain and maintain all financial and accounting records and documents exclusively relating to the Master Agreement, and maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for three (3) years after the Master Agreement is terminated, expires or in accordance with any applicable statute of limitations, whichever is longer, and shall make them available for inspection and audit by authorized representatives of MHEC, Eligible Organization with reasonable notice and no more than once per year during normal business hours, (including the procurement officer or designee), and appropriate governmental authorities with Eligible Organization’s state upon written request. In no event will HP be required to provide the Eligible Organization or its auditor with access to HP’s internal cost and resource utilization data, or data related to employees or other customers of HP.

41. FORCE MAJEURE Neither Supplier nor MHEC nor Procuring Eligible Organization shall be liable to each other during any period in which its performance is delayed or prevented, in whole or in part, by a circumstance beyond its reasonable control, which circumstances include, but are not limited to, the following: act of God (e.g., flood, earthquake, wind); fire; war; act of a public enemy or terrorist; act of sabotage; epidemic; pandemic; strike or other labor dispute; riot; piracy or other misadventure of the sea; embargo; inability to secure materials and or transportation; or, a restriction imposed by legislation, an order or a rule or regulation of a governmental entity. If such a circumstance occurs, the party unable to perform shall undertake reasonable action to notify the other parties of the same.

43. CONFLICT OF INTEREST Supplier warrants to the best of its knowledge and belief that it presently has no interest direct or indirect, which would give rise to organizational conflicts of interest. Supplier agrees that if an organizational conflict of interest

DocuSign Envelope ID: 27123D73-352C-4E2C-88B8-ADCB998BAB8C

Contract Number: MHEC-05162022

HP/MHEC Master Agreement Page 12 of 34 May 16, 2022

is discovered during the term of this Master Agreement, it will provide disclosure to MHEC that shall include a description of the action Supplier has taken or proposes to take to avoid or mitigate such conflicts. If an organizational conflict of interest is determined to exist and is not timely resolved by Supplier, MHEC may, at its sole discretion, cancel this Master Agreement.

44. SUBCONTRACTORS Supplier shall have the right to use Subcontractors to provide the Services described in this Master Agreement. If Supplier elects to use Subcontractors in the performance of custom professional Services under this Master Agreement, upon request, Supplier will provide a list of such Subcontractors in the associated Statement of Work (SOW). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the use of such Subcontractors shall not release Supplier from performing its obligations under this Master Agreement. Supplier shall be liable for any damage or loss resulting from personal injury or damage to tangible property arising from the acts or omissions of its subcontractor while preforming services pursuant to this Master Agreement.

45. ASSIGNMENT Neither party will assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Master Agreement, in whole or in part, without the other party's prior written consent, and, absent such consent, any purported assignment or delegation by that party will be null, void and of no effect; provided, however, that either party may upon written notice assign this Master Agreement to another successor company pursuant to a corporate merger or reorganization or the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its stock or assets. This Master Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Supplier and MHEC and their successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Section 45 shall preclude Supplier from employing a Subcontractor in carrying out its obligations under this Master Agreement. Supplier use of such Subcontractors will not release Supplier from its obligations under this Master Agreement.

46. MHEC NOT LIABLE FOR ELIGIBLE ORGANIZATION MHEC is not liable to Supplier for the failure of any Procuring Eligible Organization to make any payment or to otherwise fully perform pursuant to the terms and conditions of an Order and/or the Master Agreement. Supplier, in its sole discretion, may discontinue selling products or services to any Eligible Organization who fails to make payments or otherwise fully performs pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Master Agreement. MHEC does not guarantee that any Eligible Organization will utilize or make any purchase under the Master Agreement. An Eligible Organization shall not be responsible for any other Eligible Organization that executes its own Order under the Master Agreement.

47. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS MHEC and Supplier acknowledge and agree that the relationship arising from this Master Agreement does not constitute or create any joint venture, partnership, employment relationship or franchise between them, and the parties are acting as independent contractors in making and performing this Master Agreement.

EXHIBIT C – HP Worldwide Limited Warranty and Technical Support HP Hardware Limited Warranty

Limited Warranty Period

This HP Hardware Limited Warranty gives you, the customer, express limited warranty rights from HP, the manufacturer, for the duration specified on the product description page. Please refer to the HP website for an extensive description of your limited warranty entitlements. HP may offer 90 days of Complimentary Limited Technical Support by phone without a fee. Thereafter, there may be an additional service fee for HP phone support while other support methods—including chat, HP Support website, or by contacting your HP reseller or HP authorized service provider—are available without charge during the whole duration of this HP Limited Warranty. Please see the product description page for applicable products.

General Terms

This HP Limited Warranty gives you, the end-user customer, express limited warranty rights from HP, the manufacturer. Refer to the HP website for an extensive description of your limited warranty entitlements. To the extent that you have a separate written agreement with HP, you also may have other legal rights that this HP Limited Warranty does not exclude, limit, or suspend. Refer to “Country-Specific Terms,” if applicable, at the end of your warranty for more information regarding your rights.

This HP Limited Warranty applies only to HP-branded and Compaq-branded hardware products, including without limitation, HP printing supplies (collectively referred to in this HP Limited Warranty as “HP Hardware Products”) sold by or leased from HP Inc., its worldwide subsidiaries (collectively referred to in this HP Limited Warranty as “HP”), affiliates, authorized resellers, authorized distributors, or country distributors with this HP Limited Warranty. The term “HP Hardware Product” is limited to the hardware components and required firmware. The term “HP Hardware Product” DOES NOT include software applications or programs, non-HP products, or non-HP branded peripherals. To the extent permitted by local law, all non-HP products or non-HP branded peripherals external to the HP Hardware Product—such as external storage subsystems, displays, printers, and other peripherals—are provided “AS IS” and are not covered by this HP Limited Warranty. However, non-HP manufacturers and suppliers or publishers may provide their own warranties directly to you. An HP branded peripheral or other HP branded product not covered by this HP Limited Warranty also may be covered by the HP Limited Warranty for that particular HP-branded peripheral or product. Consult your HP Limited Warranty for that product to determine your rights and obligations.

To the extent permitted by local law, HP guarantees that it will repair, replace, or refund, at HP's option, an HP Hardware Product that manifests a defect in materials or workmanship during the Limited Warranty Period, if you, the end-user customer, provides HP with notice of a defect in your HP Hardware Product during the Limited Warranty Period. HP's obligation under this HP Limited Warranty, at its option, to repair, replace, or provide a refund for an HP Hardware Product that manifests a defect in materials and workmanship ceases upon the expiration of the Limited Warranty Period.

The Limited Warranty Period starts on the latter of the date of purchase or lease from HP or from the date HP or, if applicable, the HP authorized service provider completes installation. Your dated sales or delivery receipt, showing the date of purchase or lease of the HP Hardware Product, is your proof of the purchase or lease date unless HP or your authorized reseller informs you otherwise in writing. You may be required to provide proof of purchase or lease as a condition of receiving warranty service. Warranty service indicated here reflects base

level warranty offerings. Enhancements to the base warranty may be included with your HP Hardware Product. For current warranty information, contact HP or go to HP.com. For HP ink cartridges, the warranty coverage extends until the HP ink is depleted or the "Warranty Ends" date has been reached, whichever occurs first. For HP print heads, the coverage extends until the "Warranty Ends" date has been reached or the warranted usage limit has been reached, whichever occurs first. For HP LaserJet print cartridges the warranty coverage extends until the warranted usage limit is reached.

Some states or countries do not allow the following exclusions or limitations, so these exclusions and limitations may be limited in their application to you.

HP MAKES NO OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTY OR CONDITION WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HP EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS NOT STATED IN THIS HP LIMITED WARRANTY. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY THE LOCAL LAW OF JURISDICTIONS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES, HP DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. FOR ALL TRANSACTIONS OCCURRING IN THE UNITED STATES, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF MERCHANTABILITY, QUALITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE IS LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE EXPRESS WARRANTY SET FORTH ABOVE. SOME STATES OR COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW A LIMITATION ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION LASTS OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF PARTICULAR TYPES OF DAMAGE, INCLUDING INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR CONSUMER PRODUCTS. IN SUCH STATES OR COUNTRIES, SOME EXCLUSIONS, DISCLAIMERS OR LIMITATIONS OF THIS HP LIMITED WARRANTY MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. TO THE EXTENT THAT THIS HP LIMITED WARRANTY OR ANY PART OF IT IS INCONSISTENT WITH LOCAL LAW, THIS HP LIMITED WARRANTY OR THE CORRESPONDING PART SHALL BE DEEMED MODIFIED TO BE CONSISTENT WITH SUCH LOCAL LAW.

FOR CONSUMER TRANSACTIONS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE EUROPEAN UNION, AUSTRALIA, AND NEW ZEALAND, THE LIMITED WARRANTY TERMS CONTAINED IN THIS STATEMENT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT LAWFULLY PERMITTED, DO NOT EXCLUDE, RESTRICT, OR MODIFY BUT ARE IN ADDITION TO THE MANDATORY STATUTORY RIGHTS APPLICABLE TO THE SALE OF THIS HP HARDWARE PRODUCT TO YOU.

This HP Limited Warranty is applicable in all countries and may be enforced in any country or region where HP or its authorized service providers offer warranty service for the same product model number subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this HP Limited Warranty. This HP Limited Warranty is subject to all applicable national export and import laws and regulations. Under this HP Limited Warranty, HP Hardware Products purchased in one country or region may be transferred to another country or region where HP or its authorized service providers offer warranty service for the same product model numbers. Warranty terms, service availability, and service response times may vary from country or region to country or region. Standard warranty service response time is subject to change due to local parts availability. If parts are unavailable, your HP authorized service provider can provide you with details. HP will not alter form, fit, or function of this HP Hardware Product to make it operate in a country for which it was never intended to function.

You are entitled to hardware warranty service according to the terms and conditions of this document if a repair to your HP Hardware Product is required due to the manifestation of a defect in materials and workmanship within the Limited Warranty Period. HP will, at its option, repair or replace any component or hardware product that manifests a defect in materials or workmanship during the Limited Warranty Period if HP receives notice from you, the end-user customer, of the manifestation of such a defect during the Limited Warranty Period. Unless otherwise stated, and to the extent permitted by local law, new HP Hardware Products may be manufactured using new materials or new and used materials functionally equivalent to new in performance and reliability. To the extent consistent with local law, (a) HP Hardware Products presented for repair may be replaced by refurbished HP Hardware Products of the same type rather than being repaired; (b) refurbished parts may be used to repair HP Hardware Products; and (c) replaced or repaired HP Hardware Products will be functionally equivalent in performance and reliability to original products that have been discontinued. Unless otherwise expressly required by local law, if these replaced or repaired HP Hardware Products or parts manifest a defect in materials or workmanship (1) during the ninety (90) days following their repair and/or replacement, or (2) during the remainder of the Limited Warranty Period of the HP Hardware Product they are replacing or in which they are installed, HP warrants that it will again repair or replace these HP Hardware Products or parts.

All component parts or hardware products removed under this HP Limited Warranty become the property of HP unless otherwise stipulated by applicable local law. In the unlikely event that your HP Hardware Product has recurring failures or HP determines it is unable to repair or replace the HP Hardware Product, HP, at its option, may elect to provide you with (a) a replacement unit selected by HP that is the same or functionally equivalent to your HP Hardware Product in performance or (b) to give you a refund or credit of your purchase price or lease payments (less interest) instead of a replacement. To the extent permitted by local law, this is your exclusive remedy for defective products.

Some states or countries do not allow the above exclusion or limitation, so this exclusion and limitation may be limited in its application to you.

Disputes arising out of this HP Limited Warranty or relating to your purchase of the HP Hardware Products subject to this HP Limited Warranty—whether based on contract, tort, statute, fraud, or any other legal theory—are governed by the law of the country and state, province, or territory in which you currently reside, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.

HP is not responsible for any interoperability or compatibility issues that may arise when

products, software, or options not supported by HP are used; configurations not supported by HP are used; or parts intended for one system are installed in another system of different make or model.

YOU SHOULD MAKE PERIODIC BACKUP COPIES OF THE DATA STORED ON YOUR HARD DRIVE OR OTHER STORAGE DEVICES AS A PRECAUTION AGAINST POSSIBLE FAILURES, ALTERATION, OR LOSS OF THE DATA. BEFORE RETURNING ANY HP HARDWARE PRODUCT FOR SERVICE, BE SURE TO BACK UP DATA AND REMOVE ANY CONFIDENTIAL, PROPRIETARY, OR PERSONAL INFORMATION.

Product Specific Exclusions

Rechargeable Batteries

HP defines batteries as a standard component of the HP Hardware Product that can be either standard (non- long life) or long-life battery (LLB or XL). A Standard battery can be furthered defined has having 300 cycles, while a long-life battery has 1000 cycles. This HP Hardware Product may include an internal rechargeable non- removable battery that is not user accessible and must be replaced by HP or an HP authorized service provider. The internal rechargeable non-removable battery is covered by this limited warranty as a standard component of the HP Hardware Product and is covered 1 year from the date of purchase of the HP Hardware Product, unless otherwise specified in this HP Limited Warranty.

This HP Hardware Product may include a rechargeable removable battery that is designed to be removed and replaced by the user. HP warrants that it will provide a replacement battery if the battery manifests a defect in materials or workmanship during the one (1) year period from the date of purchase of the HP Hardware Product in which the battery is installed, unless otherwise specified in this HP Limited Warranty.

As with all batteries, the maximum capacity of any battery included in the HP Hardware Product will decrease with time or use, and battery cycle life will vary depending on product model, configuration, loaded applications, features, use, wireless functionality, and power management settings. Accordingly, a decrease in maximum battery capacity or battery cycle life is not a defect in materials or workmanship, and this HP Limited Warranty does not cover changes in battery capacity or battery cycle life. To the extent permitted by local law, the battery is only warranted against defects in materials or workmanship resulting in failure of the battery to operate for the duration of the Limited Warranty Period for the battery as specified above or in the event that the battery cycle life exceeds the battery rated cycle count, whichever comes first, unless otherwise specified in this HP

Limited Warranty. To determine whether your battery has had a warranted failure, you may be required to run an HP diagnostic test.

HP Printing Products

The use of a non-HP or refilled cartridge does not affect either the HP Limited Warranty to the end-user customer or any HP support contract with the end-user customer for the printer. However, if printer or print head failure or damage is attributable to the use of a non-HP or refilled cartridge, HP will charge its standard time and materials charges to service the printer for the particular failure or damage or for the cost to replace the print head. For HP ink cartridges and supplies and HP LaserJet supplies, this HP Limited Warranty does not apply to products that, in addition to other exclusions described in this HP Limited Warranty, have been refilled, refurbished, remanufactured, or tampered with in any way. This HP Limited Warranty pertains to HP ink cartridges, print heads, or HP LaserJet print cartridges when used in its designated HP or authorized original equipment manufacturer (OEM) printing device. HP’s limited warranty is void in the event the printer is attached to an aftermarket apparatus or system that modifies the printer’s functionality such as a continuous ink system.

THIS HP LIMITED WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS. YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT MAY VARY FROM STATE TO STATE OR FROM COUNTRY TO COUNTRY. YOU ARE ADVISED TO CONSULT APPLICABLE STATE OR COUNTRY LAWS FOR A FULL DETERMINATION OF YOUR RIGHTS.

HP Options and Accessories Limited Warranty

The HP Limited Warranty terms and conditions for HP-branded options and accessories (collectively referred to in this HP Limited Warranty as “HP Options”) are as set forth in the HP Limited Warranty applicable to the HP Option and included with the HP Hardware Product. If your HP Option is installed in an HP Hardware Product, HP will provide warranty service for either the period specified in the warranty documents (HP Option Limited Warranty Period) that shipped with the HP Option or for the remaining warranty period of the HP Hardware Product in which the HP Option is installed, whichever period is longer, but not to exceed three (3) years from the date you purchased the HP Option. The HP Option Limited Warranty Period starts from the date of purchase from HP or an HP authorized reseller. Your dated sales or delivery receipt, showing the date of purchase of the HP Option, is your warranty start date. See your HP Option Limited Warranty for details. To the extent permitted by local law, non-HP options are provided “AS IS.” However, non-HP manufacturers and suppliers may provide warranties directly to you.

Displays

Digital Signage Display

This Limited Warranty does not cover service for removing or reinstalling a wall-mounted or custom-installed Digital Signage Display. This Limited Warranty does not cover damage resulting from a wall-mounted or other custom installation or removal of a display. HP recommends using a qualified installer for wall mounting or other custom installation or removal of a display. If HP determines that a Digital Signage Display issue cannot be resolved remotely, HP will ship a replacement product directly to the customer. HP will incur all shipping and insurance costs by providing courier assistance to package and return unit safely to HP. Failure to return the defective unit may result in HP billing the customer for the replacement product.

Monitors

All Monitor models are not suitable for applications that exhibit static, stationary, or fixed images. Static images may cause image retention damage that may appear as stains or watermarks on the screen. This HP Limited Warranty does not cover monitors that are in use for applications that exhibit static, stationary, or fixed images for long periods or for 24-hours per day that result in image retention damage. To avoid image retention damage, turn off the monitor when it is not in use or use a power management setting, if supported by your system, to turn off the display when the system is idle.

Multimedia Monitor and PC Bundle Concurrent Warranty

If you purchased a Multimedia Monitor together with a personal computer as part of a product bundle (purchased as a single SKU), the duration of the warranty period for the Multimedia Monitor is, to the extent permitted by local law, coextensive with that of the warranty period for the personal computer. Check the warranty statement of the personal computer for details.

Customer Responsibilities

In order to avoid the risk of charges for issues not covered by your HP Limited Warranty (issues that are not due to defects in materials and workmanship on HP Hardware Products), you will be asked to assist HP or the HP authorized service provider as follows:

Provide true, accurate, and complete information when filing a warranty claim.

HP recommends that you make periodic backup copies of your files, data, or programs stored on your hard drive or other storage devices as a precaution against possible failures, alteration, or loss. Before returning any HP Hardware Product for warranty support or repairs, back up your files, data, and programs, and remove any confidential, proprietary, or personal information.

Procedures for Returns

The State or Local Government Customer should contact the assigned Customer Service Representative by calling 800-727-2472 to coordinate returns or replacements within 30 days from receipt of product. At that time, the customer will be issued an RGA number that will remain valid for a period of 15 calendar days from the date of issuance. All materials must be received within the RGA validation period.

The HP Customer Service Representative will schedule the pickup for returns and forward an email to the person requesting the return. Faxes can also be forwarded in place of an email. The email will include all the information regarding the return, including the RGA and carrier name and date of pickup. The Customer Service Representative will assist the customer on any other details or specifics regarding returns, credits, and refunds.

HP reserves the right to refuse any return that does not meet the requirements stated below:

Product must be returned in the original shipping packaging. In the event the packaging is not available or unusable, it must be noted when requesting an RGA.

If possible, remove all mailing labels on the outside of the box that reference the customer address, or mark out the mailing labels address with a marker. The customer will either receive a mailing label via email that should be attached to the return products and/or will be provided a label by the carrier. Be sure to mark your RGA number on the box.

If product for more than one RGA is being returned in the same box, make sure that all RGA numbers are listed on both the mailing label and packing list. If products are received at the Returns Center without valid RGA numbers on the mailing label, your credit may be delayed and proof of delivery or other supporting documentation may be required.

The RGA number(s) must appear clearly on the box, as returns will not be accepted without an RGA number.

Returns must be 100% complete, unused, and in original and re-sellable condition, with all original packaging, manuals, registration card(s), software, cabling, and accessories. If, after the product has been returned and inspected, it is discovered that components are missing from the return, HP reserves the right not to issue an RGA for the return of the missing components. If it is determined that there are missing components when the product is returned, and the customer has received a credit, the customer will be issued an invoice for the missing component. Missing components may include, but are not limited to, keyboard, mouse, software, speakers, accessories, drives, memory, microprocessors, and processor boards.

RGA numbers that have been open for greater than 15 days may be cancelled and the customer subsequently invoiced for the unreturned product. Another RGA can be requested as long as it is within 30 days of receipt of the product. Please note that all returned products must be credited against the account and order from which the product was originally invoiced.

All products must be returned to the address provided by the HP Customer Service Representative via email or by the carrier:
