Yes

By participating in the Dell Partner AdvantEdge Program (the “Partner AdvantEdge Program”), the participating Dell PartnerDirect Preferred or Premier

Partner (each a “Partner”) and any of Partner’s participating sales associates and technical representatives (collectively, “Associates” and, together with

Partners, “Participants”) agree to be bound by the terms and conditions below (this “Agreement”) and the terms and conditions of the Dell PartnerDirect

Program (the “PD Program”) located at http://partner.dell.com/Main/Pages/DAPP/DBC/default.aspx

, to which all Partners are subject. Unless otherwise specified, terms and definitions used herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the PD Program. Please print a copy of this Agreement for your records.

1. ELIGIBILITY: Throughout participation in the Partner AdvantEdge Program and before any Participant will be eligible to receive award points

(“AwardPerQs”) pursuant to the Dell Partner AdvantEdge Program Rules (which Dell Partner AdvantEdge Program Rules are available on the Dell Partner

AdvantEdge Program website), Partner must (and any participating Associates must be at all times for the duration of the Partner AdvantEdge Program a current employee of a Partner who must): (a) be a current U.S. Dell PartnerDirect Preferred Partner or Premier Partner and in compliance with the PD

Program; (b) maintain good credit standing with Dell; (c) maintain a current registration profile including yearly updates and prompt notification to Dell in writing of any change that may affect Partner’s participation; and (d) meet any other criteria required by Dell. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Partners who are eligible to participate in the Direct Market Reseller Rebates shall not be eligible to participate in the Partner AdvantEdge Program. Neither this

Agreement nor Participant’s participation in the Partner AdvantEdge Program shall be deemed to create an employee-employer relationship between the

Participant and Dell.

2. PROGRAM DURATION: Dell reserves the right to change or discontinue the Partner AdvantEdge Program or terminate any Participant’s participation at any time without prior notice.

3. AWARD POINTS: Participants may redeem AwardPerQs for prizes at Dell.performnet.com. Prize values may be estimates of the product value plus any shipping and administrative costs. Dell is not responsible for the value estimates of prizes. AwardPerQs are non-transferrable and may only be redeemed by the Participant to whom they were issued. AwardperQs are not redeemable for cash and AwardPerQs will be considered void and will not be honored if sold for cash or other consideration, or auctioned on the internet. AwardPerQs are not replaceable if lost, stolen or destroyed. NO CHANGE OR CREDIT WILL BE

GIVEN on any unused AwardPerQs and they can only be redeemed as described in this Agreement. AwardPerQs shall be awarded to Participants as described in the Dell Partner Advantage Program Rules. Certain elements of the AwardPerQs System are protected by U.S. Patent No. 5,915,244.

4. CONDITIONS OF PARTICIPATION: Participants agree (a) that Dell, its parent entity, subsidiaries and affiliated companies, advertising, promotion, and production agencies, prize providers, and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, will have no liability whatsoever for, and shall be held harmless by Participants against, any liability for any injuries, losses or damages of any kind to persons, including death, or property resulting in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, from acceptance, possession, misuse or use of any award or prize, or participation in the

Partner AdvantEdge Program or any Partner AdvantEdge Program related activity; or for any typographical or other error, including any error in the printing, offering, announcement, award or shipment of any prize; and (b) except where legally prohibited, Participants grant (and agree to confirm that grant in writing) permission for Dell and those acting under its authority to use Participant’s name, photograph, voice and/or likeness, for advertising, trade and/or publicity purposes without additional compensation in all media now known or hereafter discovered, worldwide and on the Internet, without notice, review or approval.

5. VOLUNTARY PARTICIPATION. Participant acknowledges that participation is voluntary and not a condition of being a PD Program Preferred Partner or

Premier Partner.

6. PRIZES: AwardPerQs are valid for the prizes listed on the Partner AdvantEdge Program web site located at Dell.performnet.com. AwardPerQs are redeemable based on availability of the prizes. Participants are solely responsible for all applicable taxes, insurance, licensing, registration, title fees and costs, and other expenses which may be required for the enjoyment and use of prizes. All expenses not stated in this Agreement are solely the responsibility of the Participant. Participants may not substitute, assign or transfer prizes, or redeem prizes for cash or credit cards or supplement for cash or credit cards, but Dell reserves the right to substitute a prize with a prize of equal or greater value should the advertised prize become unavailable. Prizes will not be fulfilled or provided outside the United States. Awards and award values offered in connection with the Partner AdvantEdge Program are subject to change without prior notice. Should a product be discontinued or withdrawn, the Partner AdvantEdge Program Awards Center may substitute a product of equivalent value, if available, or cancel your order and refund your AwardPerQs. Accidental typographical errors sometimes occur in printed merchandise descriptions and product values. In this event, we reserve the right to notify you of the correct description or value before merchandise is shipped. In the event we ship the wrong prize or incorrect prize amount is sent to Participant, Participant agrees to return such prize or amount as directed by Dell or BI.

We cannot accept responsibility for delays or inability to fulfill for any cause such as fire, explosion, action of the elements, strikes or other differences with workers; restrictions or restraints imposed by law, rules or other order of public authority; or interruption of transportation beyond our control. All issuances of AwardPerQs to individual Participants are final and are not transferable. AwardPerQs accrued do not constitute property and are not transferable by operation of law or otherwise to any person or entity and cannot be transferred to any other account. When redeemed for merchandise or travel awards, all point values include the award cost, shipping, and sales tax, where applicable.

7. ACCESSING THE PROGRAM WEB SITE: To participate in the Partner AdvantEdge Program, all Participants agree that Partner AdvantEdge Program registration and all electronic communications will require an identification code (“Login ID”) and password. The Login ID contained in an electronic document or communication is sufficient to verify the sender’s identity and the document’s authenticity. Participants are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their Login ID and password, and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under their Login ID. Participants agree to immediately notify the Partner AdvantEdge Program administrator, at incentive@dell.com

of any unauthorized use of their Login ID or account or any other breach of security.

8. COOKIES: The AwardPerQs system uses cookies to store information on the Participant’s local computer. These cookies serve only to maintain current session and verify identity. If you provide an e-mail address, the e-mail address is used for confirming Participant registration details and password (and for sending new passwords should your password need to be reset). The Participants’ e-mail addresses will be used to keep Participants up to date on the current site status, or to announce any planned or extended system outages, maintenance or policy changes.

9. LIABILITY: Neither Dell nor its agencies are or shall be responsible for illegible, lost, late, damaged, destroyed, incomplete, postage due, unintelligible, non-delivered, misdirected, stolen entries; or for incomplete, inaccurate, lost, interrupted or unavailable network, satellite, telephone networks or lines, computer on-line systems, computer equipment, software, viruses or bugs, servers or providers, or other connections, availability or accessibility; or for unauthorized access to, or alteration of entries; or miscommunications, failed computer, telephone, satellite, or cable transmissions, lines or other technical failure; or for jumbled, scrambled, delayed, or misdirected transmissions, computer hardware or software malfunctions, failures or difficulties; or for any other errors of any kind, whether human, mechanical, electronic or network; or for the incorrect or inaccurate capture of entry or other information, or the failure to capture any such information. Any attempt by any person to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple/different e-mail accounts, or any other methods will void all of that person’s entries and that person will be disqualified from participating in the Partner AdvantEdge

Program.

10. TAX LIABILITY: Taxes on prizes are the sole responsibility of the Participant. All federal, state and local laws and regulations apply. Participants will be required to provide their Tax ID/Social Security number for tax reporting purposes. Participants will receive a Form 1099 based on award points (each

AwardPerQ is valued at 28 cents USD) issued, not redeemed.

11. INDEMNIFICATION: Participants waive any and all claims of liability and hereby release, indemnify and hold harmless, Dell and its affiliates, subsidiaries, partners, advertising and promotion agencies from and against any accident, loss or injury occurring as a result or consequence of the Partner

AdvantEdge Program, or any prize or award received through the Partner AdvantEdge Program.

12. ADMINISTRATION: The terms and conditions of the Partner AdvantEdge Program and the eligibility of Participants to participate therein are in Dell’s sole discretion. All decisions made by Dell are final. Dell reserves the right to audit and/or request verification of all claims submitted and reserves the right to modify and/or cancel the Partner AdvantEdge Program and this Agreement at any time, for any reason, without prior notice.

15. DISCLOSURE: In connection with any sale of Dell products and/or services that Participant shall make to a government (including federal, provincial, state or local government), education end user, or customer purchasing products or services that will be reimbursed under a federal healthcare program, which sale shall qualify for or towards receipt of an incentive from Dell hereunder, and it is required by law, regulation, solicitation or contract, Participant shall disclose to such public entity, prior to making such sale, that Participant will receive such payments from Dell in connection with such sale. It is the

Participant’s responsibility to certify with Dell that it has complied with all disclosure requirements. Failure to make the disclosure required hereunder shall constitute a waiver, by Participant, of its right to receive any payments related to such sale. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Participant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Dell and its subsidiaries, affiliates, parents, successors, and assigns, from and against any claim, demand, cause of action, debt, or liability (including reasonable attorney and legal fees, expenses, and court costs) based upon, arising from, or related to the Participant’s failure to make any such required disclosure. Dell reserves the right to not pay incentives in certain circumstances, including, without limitation, if the

Participant has failed to comply with all of the terms and conditions, or certify to Dell compliance with the disclosure requirement.
