  • Client confirms that no-charge access to the Program complies with all applicable ethics laws, and that such access does not conflict with any applicable law, regulation, or Client policy.  Client has obtained all necessary approvals and authorizations to accept no-charge access to the Program.
  • No-charge access to the Program is provided on the understanding confirmed by Client that such access will not preclude or restrict IBM from proposing or bidding on any business opportunities that might exist now or in the future with Client (or any organization with which Client elected and appointed officials are affiliated).  No-charge access to the Program is not made for the purpose of lobbying.  Client and IBM will each take appropriate action to mitigate or eliminate any conflicts of interest that might interfere with no-charge access to the Program or any future agreements between the parties.
