Amendment / Modification

This document, titled "FDIC RIDER," serves as an amendment to a Commercial Supplier Agreement (CSA). It aims to revise certain provisions to comply with Federal law and FDIC requirements. Key changes include:

• Contract Formation: All terms binding the FDIC must be in static text within the signed contract. Click-wrap or browse-wrap agreements are not binding.

• Venue: Language requiring dispute resolution in a specific forum different from Federal law is deleted.
• Limitations on Actions: Time periods for bringing actions are aligned with Federal law.
• Arbitration: Binding arbitration is not permitted unless specifically authorized by FDIC guidance. Equitable or injunctive relief awards against FDIC require statutory provision.
• Updating Terms: Unilateral revisions by the contractor are limited. Material changes require a bilateral modification. Unilaterally revised terms inconsistent with the contract are not enforceable.
• Representation: The U.S. Department of Justice has the sole right to represent the U.S. in legal actions.
• Warranties and Disclaimers: FDIC accepts commercial warranties but not disclaimers of implied warranties or warranties expressly provided in the contract.
• Limitation of Liability: Limitations apply only to contract-based claims; tort or other causes of action limitations are void. The Government's right to recover for fraud is unimpaired.
• Audit: Contractor bears the expense of any requested audits, which must meet FDIC security requirements.
• Term and Termination: Neither party can unilaterally revoke, terminate, or suspend the agreement or rights. Disputes follow the contract's Disputes clause.
• Continued Performance: Suppliers cannot unilaterally revoke rights. Breach claims must follow the Disputes Clause or Federal statute.
• Confidentiality: Confidentiality obligations are governed by statute (e.g., Trade Secrets Act, FOIA). Conflicting language is void.
• Indemnification: Language requiring FDIC to indemnify a contractor is void.
• Automatic Renewal: Provisions for automatic renewal are unenforceable unless expressly agreed to by FDIC.
• Integration: The contract and this amendment constitute the "entire agreement."
• Governing Law: The agreement is governed by Federal law; state or local law references are deleted.
• Assignment: Assignment or delegation requires FDIC's prior approval.
• Taxes: FDIC is exempt from City, County, State, and Federal taxes; provisions for FDIC paying taxes are deleted.
• Force Majeure: Failure to perform due to events beyond contractor control is excusable.
• Litigation: Provisions giving the licensor/reseller sole control over defense or settlement are deleted.
• Advertising/Publicity: Provisions allowing publication of FDIC's name or implying endorsement are deleted.

This rider amends and supersedes inconsistent provisions of the Commercial Supplier Agreement (CSA). All unmodified provisions of the CSA remain in effect.

This document modifies the terms and conditions of an existing or future contract. Bidders should review these changes to understand how they affect their contractual obligations and rights when dealing with the FDIC.
