as amended from time-to-tirne.
b. As provided by Ind. Code § 5-22-16.5-8, as amended From time -to -time, a Contractor
is engaged in investment activities in Iran if either:
i. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, provides goods or services of twenty
million dollars ($20,000,000) or more in value in the energy sector of Iran;
or
ii. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, is a financial institution that extends

or any matter directly or indirectly related to employment because of race, sex, religion,

In awarding contracts for the purchase of work, labor, services, supplies, equipment,
materials, or any combination of the foregoing including, but not limited to, public works
contracts awarded under public bidding laws or other contracts in which public bids are
not required by law, the City, its agencies, boards, or commissions may consider the
Contractor's good faith efforts to obtain participation by those Contractors certified by

Enterprise ("WBE") as a factor in determining the lowest, responsible, responsive
bidder.
In no event shall persons or entities seeking the award of a City contract be required to
award a subcontract to an MBE/WBE; however, it may not unlawfully discriminate
against said WBE/MBE. A finding of a discriminatory practice by the City's MBE/WBE
Utilization Board shall prohibit that person or entity from being awarded a City contract

the City of South Bend, Indiana or any of its agencies, boards or commissions.

employment in the performance of this contract with privileges of employment, or any
matter directly or indirectly related to employment, because of race, religion, color, sex,
gender expression, gender identity, sexual orientation, handicap, national origin or
ancestry. Breach of this provision may be regarded as material breach of contract.

States (I.C. 5-16-8-1). 1 hereby certify that I and all subcontractors employed by me for
this project will use steel products or foundry products made in the United States on this
project if awarded. I understand I have an affirmative duty to notify the City in my bid
that my proposal does not include the use of steel products or foundry products made in
the United States. I understand it is my sole obligation and responsibility to provide a
justification to the City, subject to review and approval, why the cost of United States
made steel or foundry products is unreasonable. Prior to award and upon submission of
bid which does not use steel products or foundry products made in the United States, the
City, through its director of public works, shall make a determination if the price of
United States made steel or foundry is unreasonable. I understand that violations
hereunder may result in forfeiture of contractual payments.
