Additional G-Cloud services 30.1 The Buyer may require the Supplier to provide Additional Services. The Buyer doesn’t have to buy any Additional Services from the Supplier and can buy services that are the same as or similar to the Additional Services from any third party.
30.2 If reasonably requested to do so by the Buyer in the Order Form, the Supplier must provide and monitor performance of the Additional Services using an Implementation Plan.
Professional Growth The policy of the District shall be to encourage continued and active participation on the part of classified employees in a program of professional growth activities designed to improve service to students and the District, and to assist in the personal and professional development of the employee. Professional growth is designed as a continuous purposeful program of study/training to retain and extend the high standards of the classified employees. The purpose of this program will be:
1. To improve the standard of service of the classified staff;
2. To extend and constantly improve the standards of on-the-job performance;
3. To provide opportunities for personal growth and advancement and thereby exert a concerted effort to retain qualified classified personnel. The policy shall be interpreted and implemented as follows:
1. Professional growth credit shall be given for unit credit collegiate-level coursework. Non- collegiate courses shall be evaluated on a case-by-case basis by the employee’s immediate supervisor and the Chief Human Resources Officer or designee.
2. Professional growth credit will be provided for coursework completed on the employee’s own time. Released time for on-the-job training to participate in study/coursework, etc., shall not result in professional growth credit.
3. Professional growth credit shall be given only for that coursework begun and completed subsequent to the effective date of the Agreement into which this proposal is incorporated.
4. All coursework for professional growth credit shall be job-related or related to advancement to another District job and subject to prior approval of the employee’s immediate supervisor and the Chief Human Resources Officer. The burden of proof of job-relatedness falls to the employee making request for professional growth credit.
5. If the District determines that the coursework is not job related, the employee may appeal this decision using an appeal process similar to the one now operating with working out- of-class provisions of the Agreement.
6. Upon promotion of the employee to a new classification, the units completed for professional growth credit shall be reviewed by the new supervisor and the supervisor’s vice president to determine whether the growth credits shall carry over.
a. If units were gained completing courses which provided employee with prerequisite skills for the new position, the professional growth credit will not be carried over.
b. If the credit is not job-related to the new position, the credit will not be carried over.
c. In both “a” and “b” above, the appeal process of Paragraph 5 shall apply.
7. The District shall have the right to require appropriate coursework as part of any professional growth program for an employee.
8. An employee shall have three (3) years in which to complete any cycle of professional growth. Units will not be carried over if the cycle is not completed within the three (3) years.
9. Upon completion of twelve (12) units (within the three-year timeline), the employee shall be eligible for the first step of professional growth increment.
10. Upon completion of an additional twelve (12) units (within the three-year timeline), the employee shall be eligible for a second step of the professional growth.
11. Professional growth increment shall be a flat rate of $50.00 per month per step.

GRANTEE RESPONSIBILITIES Grantee will:
A. Enhance laboratory testing and reporting capacity:
1. Establish or expand capacity to test all symptomatic individuals, and secondarily expand capacity to achieve community-based surveillance.

2. Screen for past infection (e.g., serology) for health care workers, employees of high-risk facilities, critical infrastructure workforce, and childcare providers.
3. Obtain all jurisdictional laboratory test data electronically, including from new, non-traditional testing settings, and using alternative file formats (e.g., .csv or .xls) to help automate. In addition to other reportable results, this should include all COVID-19 – related testing data, including all tests to detect severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SAR-CoV-2) and serology testing.
4. Report all COVID-19 – related line level testing data (negatives, positives, indeterminants, serology) daily to DSHS.

All public health data must be reported electronically to DSHS in compliance with the Texas Administrative Code and within appropriate reporting timeframes.
B. Submit a monthly report on the report template to be provided by the DSHS. Monthly reports are due on or before the 15th of each month. Each report must contain a summary of activities that occurred during the preceding month for each activity listed above in Section I A, 1-4.

Not use funds for research, clinical care, fund raising activities, construction or major renovations, to supplant existing state or federal funds for activities, or funding an award to another party or provider who is ineligible. Other than normal and recognized executive-legislative relationships, no funds may be used for:
1. Publicity or propaganda purposes, for the preparation, distribution, or use of any material designed to support or defeat the enactment of legislation before any legislative body;
2. The salary or expenses of any grant or contract recipient, or agent acting for such recipient, related to any activity designed to influence the enactment of legislation, appropriations, regulation, administrative act or Executive order proposed or pending before any legislative body.
Additional Grantors Each Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.10 of the Credit Agreement shall become a Grantor for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Subsidiary of an Assumption Agreement in the form of Annex 1 hereto.
Additional Guarantors (a) If, as of the date of the most recently available financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b), as the case may be, any Subsidiary shall have become a Material Domestic Subsidiary (or shall be otherwise designated as a Material Domestic Subsidiary by the Borrower hereunder or under the Term Loan Agreement) or any Person shall have become a Material Foreign Subsidiary (or shall be otherwise designated as a Material Foreign Subsidiary by the Borrower hereunder or under the Term Loan Agreement), then the Borrower shall:
(i) In the case of any such Subsidiary that becomes (or is so designated as) a Material Domestic Subsidiary, within 30 days (or such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) after delivery of such financial statements, (1) cause such Material Domestic Subsidiary to enter into a Guaranty, or, if a Guaranty has previously been entered into by a Material Domestic Subsidiary (and remains in effect), a joinder agreement to such Guaranty in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (2) deliver to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender all documentation and other information required by bank regulatory authorities under applicable “know-your-customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act and (3) (x) deliver to the Administrative Agent any certificates representing the Collateral consisting of Equity Interests issued by such Material Domestic Subsidiary (to the extent such Equity Interests are certificated) and Equity Interests owned by such Material Domestic Subsidiary (to the extent such Equity Interests are certificated and other than Excluded Collateral), (y) deliver to the Administrative Agent such joinder agreements, amendments and supplements to the relevant Security Documents or such other documents as the Administrative Agent shall deem necessary or advisable to grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a Lien on the Collateral owned by such Material Domestic Subsidiary (other than Excluded Collateral) and (z) take all actions necessary to cause such Lien to be duly perfected to the extent required by the Security Documents in accordance with all applicable laws.
(ii) In the case of any Person that becomes (or is so designated as) a Material Foreign Subsidiary, within 90 days (or such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) after delivery of such financial statements, (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent such amendments and supplements to the relevant Security Documents or such additional Security Documents (including a Non-U.S. Pledge Agreement) as the Administrative Agent shall deem necessary or advisable to grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, a Lien on the Collateral consisting of the Equity Interests issued by such Material Foreign Subsidiary (other than Excluded Collateral) and (ii) take all actions necessary to cause such Lien to be duly perfected to the extent required by the Security Documents in accordance with all applicable laws. For the avoidance of doubt, no Domestic Subsidiary shall be required to become a Guarantor merely due to its ownership of Equity Interests in any Domestic Subsidiary that owns real property.
(b) If requested by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall receive an opinion of counsel for the Borrower (or local counsel to the Administrative Agent to the extent customary in an Applicable Foreign Jurisdiction) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in respect of matters reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent relating to any Guaranty or joinder agreement or the amendments and supplements to the Security Documents or additional Security Documents delivered pursuant to this Section, dated as of the date of such Guaranty or joinder agreement, amendments and supplements or additional Security Documents.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower and the Guarantors shall not be required, nor shall the Administrative Agent be authorized, (A) to take any additional steps to perfect the above described pledges and security interests by any means other than by (1) filings pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code in the office of the secretary of state (or similar central filing office) of the relevant State(s) and filings with the USPTO and the USCO and (2) delivery to the Administrative Agent to be held in its possession of all Collateral consisting of stock certificates evidencing Equity Interests issued by the Guarantors (other than Holdings) and Material Foreign Subsidiaries, in each case as expressly required herein or by the Loan Documents, (B) to take any action with respect to any assets located outside of the United States other than, with respect to the pledge of the Equity Interests of any Material Foreign Subsidiary, the jurisdiction of organization of such Material Foreign Subsidiary (such jurisdiction, the “Applicable Foreign Jurisdiction”) (it being understood that there shall be no security agreements, pledge agreements or other Security Documents that will be governed under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction other than, with respect to the pledge of the Equity Interests of any Material Foreign Subsidiary, the Applicable Foreign Jurisdiction), (C) to make or authorize any filings with respect to intellectual property other than filings with the USPTO and the USCO, (D) to enter into any control agreement with respect to any Collateral or (E) to require the amendment of any limited liability company agreements or other organizational documents for any Subsidiary of the Borrower, the certification of uncertificated securities or the delivery of any director resignation letters in respect of any Foreign Subsidiaries.
