This Linking Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into as of this       day of      , 2023, between the 
City of Glendale, an Arizona municipal corporation (“City”), and Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., 
Inc, a New York Corporation, authorized to do business in Arizona (“Contractor”), collectively, the

RECITALS 
A.
On June 1, 2020 under OMNIA Partners, the Region 4 Education Service Center entered into a
contract with Contractor to purchase the goods and services described in the Copiers and Printers
R191101 (“Cooperative Purchasing Agreement”), which is attached hereto as Exhibit A.  The
Cooperative Purchasing Agreement permits its cooperative use by other governmental agencies
including the City.
B.
Section 2-149 of the City’s Procurement Code permits the Materials Manager to procure goods and
services by participating with other governmental units in cooperative purchasing agreements when
the best interests of the City would be served.
C.
Section 2-149 also provides that the Materials Manager may enter into such cooperative agreements
without meeting the formal or informal solicitation and bid requirements of Glendale City Code
Sections 2-145 and 2-146.
D.
The City desires to contract with Contractor for supplies or services identical, or nearly identical, to
the supplies or services Contractor is providing other units of government under the Cooperative
Purchasing Agreement.  Contractor consents to the City’s utilization of the Cooperative Purchasing
Agreement as the basis of this Agreement, and Contractor desires to enter into this Agreement to
provide the supplies and services set forth in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, which are incorporated by reference, and 
the covenants and promises contained in this Linking Agreement, the parties agree as follows: 
1.
Term of Agreement.   The City is purchasing supplies and/or services from Contractor pursuant to
the Cooperative Purchasing Agreement.  According to the Cooperative Purchasing Agreement,
purchases can be made by governmental entities from the date of award, which was June 20, 2020,
until the date the contract expires on May 31, 2025 unless the term of the Cooperative Purchasing
Agreement is extended by the mutual agreement of the original contracting parties.  The Cooperative
Purchasing Agreement, however, may not be extended beyond May 31, 2025.  The initial period of
this Agreement, therefore, is the period from the Effective Date of this Agreement until May 31,
2024.  The City may renew the term of this Agreement for (1) one year until the Cooperative
Purchasing Agreement expires on May 31, 2025.  Glendale renewals are not automatic and shall only

notice of its intent to renew this Agreement 30 days prior to the anniversary of the Effective Date
to effectuate such renewal.
