engaged in "discrimination" as defined in §19-103 of the State Finance and Procurement Article of the Annotated Code of

Maryland. "Discrimination" means any disadvantage, difference, distinction, or preference in the solicitation, selection, hiring,

or commercial treatment of a vendor, subcontractor, or commercial customer on the basis of race, color, religion, ancestry,

or national origin, sex, age, marital status, sexual orientation, or on the basis of disability or any otherwise unlawful use of

characteristics regarding the vendor's, supplier's, or commercial customer's employees or owners. "Discrimination" also

includes retaliating against any person or other entity for reporting any incident of "discrimination". Without limiting any other

provision of the solicitation on this project, it is understood that, if the certification is false, such false certification constitutes

grounds for the State to reject the bid submitted by the bidder on this project, and terminate any contract awarded based on

the bid. As part of its bid or proposal, the bidder herewith submits a list of all instances within the past 4 years where there

has been a final adjudicated determination in a legal or administrative proceeding in the State of Maryland that the bidder

proposal;

(3) Fail to use the certified minority business enterprise in the performance of the contract; or

(4) Pay the certified minority business enterprise solely for the use of its name in the bid or proposal.

Without limiting any other provision of the solicitation on this project, it is understood that if the certification is false, such

false certification constitutes grounds for the State to reject the bid submitted by the bidder on this project, and terminate any

contract awarded based on the bid.

agrees that it has fully complied with the State veteran-owned small business enterprise law, State Finance and

PERFORMANCE AGREEMENT

If the vendor fails to complete the contract by the time specified, or within the time to which completion may have

been extended, the vendor shall pay to the college the sum of $1500.00, as liquidated damages, for each calendar

day of delay in delivery. Said liquidated damages shall be deducted from invoices rendered. If the vendor finds it

impossible for reasons beyond his control to complete the requirements of the contract by the date specified, or as

extended, in accordance with this provision, he may, at any time prior to the expiration of the contract time as

extended, make a written request to the Procurement Officer for an extension of time setting forth therein the

reasons which he believes will justify the granting of his request. The vendor’s plea that insufficient time as

specified is not a valid reason for extension of time. If the Procurement Officer finds that the work was delayed

because of conditions beyond the control and without the fault of the vendor, she may extend the time for

completion in such amount as the conditions justify. The extended time for completion shall then be in full force

and affect the same as though it were original time for completion.
