NOV 09 NRHA FRM 25-023
Certifications and Representations of Offerors Non-Construction Contract Company Name: Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 5 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. This form includes clauses required by OMB’s common rule on bidding/offering procedures, implemented by HUD in 24 CFR 85.36, and those requirements set forth in Executive Order 11625 for small, minority, women-owned businesses, and certifications for independent price determination, and conflict of interest. The form is required for non-construction contracts awarded by NRHA. The form is used by bidders/offerors to certify to NRHA's Contracting Officer for contract compliance. If the form were not used, NRHA would be unable to enforce their contracts. Responses to the collection of information are required to obtain a benefit or to retain a benefit. The information requested does not lend itself to confidentiality. 1. Contingent Fee Representation and Agreement
(a) The bidder/offeror represents and certifies as part of its bid/offer that, except for full-time bona fide employees working solely for the bidder/offeror, the bidder/offeror:
(1) [ ] has, [ ] has not employed or retained any person or company to solicit or obtain this contract; and
(2) [ ] has, [ ] has not paid or agreed to pay to any person or company employed or retained to solicit or obtain this contract any commission, percentage, brokerage, or other fee contingent upon or resulting from the award of this contract.
(b) If the answer to either (a)(1) or (a) (2) above is affirmative, the bidder/offeror shall make an immediate and full written disclosure to the PHA Contracting Officer.
(c) Any misrepresentation by the bidder/offeror shall give the PHA the right to (1) terminate the resultant contract; (2) at its discretion, to deduct from contract payments the amount of any commission, percentage, brokerage, or other contingent fee; or (3) take other remedy pursuant to the contract.
2. Small, Minority, Women-Owned Business Concern Representation
The bidder/offeror represents and certifies as part of its bid/ offer that it:
(a) [ ] is, [ ] is not a small business concern. “Small business concern,” as used in this provision, means a concern, including its affiliates, that is independently owned and operated, not dominant in the field of operation in which it is bidding, and qualified as a small business under the criteria and size standards in 13 CFR 121.
(b) [ ] is, [ ] is not a women-owned small business concern. “Women-owned,” as used in this provision, means a small business that is at least 51 percent owned by a woman or women who are U.S. citizens and who also control and operate the business.
(c) [ ] is, [ ] is not a minority enterprise which, pursuant to Executive Order 11625, is defined as a business which is at least 51 percent owned by one or more minority group members or, in the case of a publicly owned business, at least 51 percent of its voting stock is owned by one or more minority group members, and whose management and daily operations are controlled by one or more such individuals.
For the purpose of this definition, minority group members are: (Check the block applicable to you)

[ ] Native Americans [ ] Hasidic Jewish Americans
3. Section 3 Resident-Owned Businesses
The bidder/offeror represents and certifies as part of its bid/ offer that it:
(a) [ ] is, [ ] is not a Section 3 business concern. "Section 3 Resident-Owned Business" as used in this provision, means a concern, that is a resident-owned business that is owned and controlled by public housing residents under the Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968 (24 CFR 135).
4. Certificate of Independent Price Determination
(a) The bidder/offeror certifies that—
(1) The prices in this bid/offer have been arrived at independently, without, for the purpose of restricting competition, any consultation, communication, or agreement with any other bidder/offeror or competitor relating to (i) those prices, (ii) the intention to submit a bid/offer, or (iii) the methods or factors used to calculate the prices offered;
(2) The prices in this bid/offer have not been and will not be knowingly disclosed by the bidder/offeror, directly or indirectly, to any other bidder/offeror or competitor before bid opening (in the case of a sealed bid solicitation) or contract award (in the case of a negotiated solicitation) unless otherwise required by law; and
(3) No attempt has been made or will be made by the bidder/ offeror to induce any other concern to submit or not to submit a bid/offer for the purpose of restricting competition.
(b) Each signature on the bid/offer is considered to be a certification by the signatory that the signatory:
(1) Is the person in the bidder/offeror’s organization responsible for determining the prices being offered in this bid or proposal, and that the signatory has not participated, and will not participate in any action contrary to subparagraphs (a)(l) through (a)(3) above; or

(c) If the bidder/offeror deletes or modifies subparagraph (a)2 above, the bidder/offeror must furnish with its bid/offer a signed statement setting forth in detail the circumstances of the disclosure.
5. Organizational Conflicts of Interest Certification
(a) The Contractor warrants that to the best of its knowledge and belief and except as otherwise disclosed, it does not have any organizational conflict of interest which is defined as a situation in which the nature of work under a proposed contract and a prospective contractor’s organizational, financial, contractual or other interest are such that:
(i) Award of the contract may result in an unfair competitive advantage;
(ii) The Contractor’s objectivity in performing the contract work may be impaired; or
(iii) That the Contractor has disclosed all relevant information and requested the HA to make a determination with respect to this Contract.
(b) The Contractor agrees that if after award he or she discovers an organizational conflict of interest with respect to this contract, he or she shall make an immediate and full disclosure in writing to the HA which shall include a description of the action which the Contractor has taken or intends to eliminate or neutralize the conflict. The HA may, however, terminate the Contract for the convenience of HA if it would be in the best interest of HA.
(c) In the event the Contractor was aware of an organizational conflict of interest before the award of this Contract and intentionally did not disclose the conflict to the HA, the HA may terminate the Contract for default.
(d) The Contractor shall require a disclosure or representation from subcontractors and consultants who may be in a position to influence the advice or assistance rendered to the HA and shall include any necessary provisions to eliminate or neutralize conflicts of interest in consultant agreements or subcontracts involving performance or work under this Contract.

(b) That He/She is fully informed respecting the preparation and contexts of the attached Bid and all of all pertinent circumstances respecting such Bid;

(e) The Price or prices quoted in the attached Bid are fair and proper and are not tainted by any collusion, conspiracy, connivance or unlawful agreement on the part of the Bidder or any of its agents, representatives, owners, employees, or parties in interest, including this affiant.

What is backup withholding? Persons making certain paymentsto you must under certain conditions withhold and pay to theIRS 28% of such payments. This is called “backup withholding.” Payments that may be subject to backup withholding includeinterest, tax-exempt interest, dividends, broker and barterexchange transactions, rents, royalties, nonemployee pay, andcertain payments from fishing boat operators.

Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allowsan exemption from tax for scholarship income received by aChinese student temporarily present in the United States. UnderU.S. law, this student will become a resident alien for taxpurposes if his or her stay in the United States exceeds 5calendar years. However, paragraph 2 of the first Protocol to theU.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allows the provisions ofArticle 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese studentbecomes a resident alien of the United States. A Chinesestudent who qualifies for this exception (under paragraph 2 ofthe first protocol) and is relying on this exception to claim anexemption from tax on his or her scholarship or fellowshipincome would attach to Form W-9 a statement that includes theinformation described above to support that exemption.

If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exceptioncontained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim anexemption from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you mustattach a statement to Form W-9 that specifies the following fiveitems: 1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treatyunder which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresidentalien. 2. The treaty article addressing the income.
3. The article number (or location) in the tax treaty thatcontains the saving clause and its exceptions.
