AND 
DELL MARKETING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP 
THIS COOPERATIVE PURCHASING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) between the City of 
Tolleson, an Arizona municipal corporation, (the “City”), and Dell Marketing Limited Partnership, 
a Texas limited partnership, (the “Contractor”) (collectively, “the parties”), is hereby entered into 
and shall be effective on the last signature date set forth below. 
RECITALS 
 
After a competitive procurement process, the State of Arizona through its Department of 
Administration (“State”) and Contractor entered into Contract No. CTR068890, as amended, 
(collectively, the “Cooperative Contract”), for Computer Equipment, Peripherals & Related 
Services (“Products and Services”).  A copy of the Cooperative Contract is on file with the City 
Clerk’s office and is incorporated herein by reference. 
A. 
The City is permitted, pursuant to Section 3-5-7 of the City Code, to make 
purchases under the Cooperative Contract, at its discretion and with the agreement of the 
awarded Contractor, and the Cooperative Contract permits its cooperative use by other public 
entities, including the City. 
B. 
The City and the Contractor desire to enter into this Agreement for the purpose 
of (i) acknowledging their cooperative contractual relationship under the Cooperative Contract 
and this Agreement, (ii) establishing the terms and conditions by which the Contractor may 
provide the City with the required Products and Services, and (iii) setting the maximum aggregate 
amount to be expended pursuant to this Agreement related to the Products and Services. 
AGREEMENT 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing introduction and recitals, which are 
incorporated herein by reference, the following mutual covenants and conditions, and other 
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, 
the City and the Contractor hereby agree as follows: 
1. 
Term of Agreement.  This Agreement shall be effective on the last signature date 
set forth below and shall remain in full force and effect until June 30, 2027 (the “Term”) unless 
terminated as otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Cooperative Contract. 
2. 
Scope of Work.  This is an indefinite quantity and indefinite delivery, i.e., as 
needed as determined by the City, Agreement for Products and Services under the terms and 
conditions of the Cooperative Contract.  The City does not guarantee that any minimum or 
maximum number of purchases will be made pursuant to this Agreement.  Purchases will only be

2 
made when the City identifies a need and proper authorization and documentation have been 
approved.  For purchase(s) determined by the City to be appropriate for this Agreement, the 
Contractor shall provide the Products and Services to the City in such quantities and 
configurations agreed upon between the parties, in a written invoice, quote, Purchase Order or 
other form of written agreement describing the work to be completed (each, a “Purchase 
Order”).  Each Purchase Order approved and accepted by the parties pursuant to this Agreement 
shall (i) contain a reference to this Agreement and the Cooperative Contract and (ii) be attached 
hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference.  Purchase Orders submitted without 
referencing this Agreement and the Cooperative Contract will be subject to rejection. 
2.1 
Inspection; Acceptance.  All Products and Services are subject to final 
inspection and acceptance by the City.  Products and/or Services failing to conform to the 
requirements of this Agreement and/or the Cooperative Contract will be held at Contractor’s risk 
and may be returned to the Contractor.  If so returned, all costs are the responsibility of the 
Contractor.  Upon discovery of non-conforming Products and/or Services, the City may elect to 
do any or all of the following by written notice to the Contractor: (i) waive the non-conformance; 
(ii) stop the work immediately; or (iii) bring the Products and/or Services into compliance and 
withhold the cost of same from any payments due to the Contractor. 
2.2 
Cancellation.  The City reserves the right to cancel Purchase Orders within 
a reasonable period of time after issuance.  Should a Purchase Order be canceled, the City agrees 
to reimburse the Contractor, but only for actual and documentable costs incurred by the 
Contractor due to and after issuance of the Purchase Order.  The City will not reimburse the 
Contractor for any costs incurred after receipt of City notice of cancellation, or for lost profits, 
shipment of product prior to issuance of Purchase Order or for anything not expressly permitted 
pursuant to this Agreement. 
3. 
Compensation.  The City’s payments to the Contractor (if any) shall not exceed an 
aggregate amount of $200,000.00 for each fiscal year, July 1st through June 30th, for the Products 
and Services at payment rates that shall be agreed upon by the parties.  If an entire fiscal year 
does not fall within the Term of this Agreement, the aggregate compensation limit for that partial 
year shall be reduced to an amount equal to the compensation limit multiplied by a factor having 
as its numerator the number of days in the partial fiscal year and as its denominator the number 
three hundred sixty-five (365). 
4. 
Payments.  The City shall pay the Contractor based upon acceptance and delivery 
of Products and Services performed and completed to date, and upon submission and approval 
of invoices.  Each invoice shall (i) contain a reference to this Agreement and the Cooperative 
Contract and (ii) document and itemize all work completed to date.  The invoice statement shall 
include a record of materials delivered, time expended, and work performed in sufficient detail 
to justify payment.  Additionally, invoices submitted without referencing this Agreement and the 
Cooperative Contract will be subject to rejection and may be returned.

5. 
Records and Audit Rights.  To ensure that the Contractor and its subcontractors  
are complying with the warranty under Section 6 below, Contractor’s and its subcontractors’ 
books, records, correspondence, accounting procedures and practices, and any other supporting 
evidence relating to this Agreement, including the papers of any Contractor and its 
subcontractors’ employees who perform any work or services pursuant to this Agreement (all of 
the foregoing hereinafter referred to as “Records”), shall be open to inspection and subject 
to audit and/or reproduction during normal working hours by the City, to the extent necessary 
to adequately permit evaluation of the Contractor’s and its subcontractors’ compliance with the 
Arizona employer sanctions laws referenced in Section 6 below.  To the extent necessary for the 
City to audit Records as set forth in this Section, Contractor and its subcontractors hereby waive 
any rights to keep such Records confidential.  For the purpose of evaluating or verifying such 
actual or claimed costs or units expended, the City shall have access to said Records, even if 
located at subcontractors’ facilities, from the effective date of this Agreement for the duration 
of the work and until three years after the date of final payment by the City to Contractor 
pursuant to this Agreement.  Contractor and its subcontractors shall provide the City with 
adequate and appropriate workspace so that the City can conduct audits in compliance with the 
provisions of this Section.  The City shall give Contractor or its subcontractors reasonable advance 
notice of intended audits.  Contractor shall require its subcontractors to comply with the 
provisions of this Section by insertion of the requirements hereof in any subcontract pursuant to 
this Agreement. 
6. 
E-verify Requirements.  To the extent applicable under A.R.S. § 41-4401, the 
Contractor and its subcontractors warrant compliance with all federal immigration laws and 
regulations that relate to their employees and their compliance with the E-verify requirements 
under A.R.S. § 23-214(A).  Contractor’s or its subcontractors’ failure to comply with such warranty 
shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement and may result in the termination of this 
Agreement by the City. 
7. 
Conflict of Interest.  This Agreement may be canceled by the City pursuant to 
A.R.S. § 38-511. 
8. 
Applicable Law; Venue.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State 
of Arizona and a suit pertaining to this Agreement may be brought only in courts in Maricopa 
County, Arizona. 
9. 
Agreement Subject to Appropriation.  The City is obligated only to pay its 
obligations set forth in this Agreement as may lawfully be made from funds appropriated and 
budgeted for that purpose during the City’s then current fiscal year.  The City’s obligations under 
this Agreement are current expenses subject to the “budget law” and the unfettered legislative 
discretion of the City concerning budgeted purposes and appropriation of funds.  Should the City 
elect not to appropriate and budget funds to pay its Agreement obligations, this Agreement shall 
be deemed terminated at the end of the then-current fiscal year term for which such funds were 
appropriated and budgeted for such purpose and the City shall be relieved of any subsequent 
obligation under this Agreement.  The parties agree that the City has no obligation or duty of

4 
good faith to budget or appropriate the payment of the City’s obligations set forth in this 
Agreement in any budget in any fiscal year other than the fiscal year in which this Agreement is 
executed and delivered.  The City shall be the sole judge and authority in determining the 
availability of funds for its obligations under this Agreement.  The City shall keep Contractor 
informed as to the availability of funds for this Agreement.  The obligation of the City to make 
any payment pursuant to this Agreement is not a general obligation or indebtedness of the City.  
Contractor hereby waives any and all rights to bring any claim against the City from or relating in 
any way to the City’s termination of this Agreement pursuant to this section. 
10. 
Conflicting Terms.  In the event of any inconsistency, conflict, or ambiguity among 
the terms of this Agreement, any City-approved Purchase Orders, the Cooperative Contract, and 
invoices, the documents shall govern in the order listed herein.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, 
and in conformity with Section 2 above, unauthorized exceptions, conditions, limitations, or 
provisions in conflict with the terms of this Agreement or the Cooperative Contract (collectively, 
the “Unauthorized Conditions”), other than the City’s project-specific requirements, are 
expressly declared void and shall be of no force and effect.  Acceptance by the City of any 
Purchase Order or invoice containing any such Unauthorized Conditions or failure to demand full 
compliance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement or under the Cooperative 
Contract shall not alter such terms and conditions or relieve Contractor from, nor be construed 
or deemed a waiver of, its requirements and obligations in the performance of this Agreement. 
11. 
Rights and Privileges.  To the extent provided under the Cooperative Contract, the 
City shall be afforded all of the rights and privileges afforded to the State of Arizona through its 
Department of Administration identified as “State” (as defined in the Cooperative Contract) for 
the purposes of the portions of the Cooperative Contract that are incorporated herein by 
reference. 
12. 
Indemnification; Insurance.  In addition to and in no way limiting the provisions 
set forth in Section 11 above, the City shall be afforded all of the insurance coverage and 
indemnifications afforded to the Lead Public Agency to the extent provided under the 
Cooperative Contract, and such insurance coverage and indemnifications shall inure and apply 
with equal effect to the City under this Agreement including, but not limited to, the Contractor’s 
obligation to provide the indemnification and insurance.  In any event, the Contractor shall 
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the City and each council member, officer, employee or 
agent thereof (the City and any such person being herein called an “Indemnified Party”), for, from 
and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, but not 
limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and the costs of appellate proceedings) to 
which any such Indemnified Party may become subject, under any theory of liability whatsoever 
(“Claims”), insofar as such Claims (or actions in respect thereof) relate to, arise out of, or are 
caused by or based upon the negligent acts, intentional misconduct, errors, mistakes or 
omissions, in connection with the work or services of the Contractor, its officers, employees, 
agents, or any  tier of subcontractor in the performance of this Agreement.
