FORM E: CONTRACTOR / SUBCONTRACTOR CERTIFICATION: CRIMINAL HISTORY RECORDS

Ch. 22 Criminal History Records Contractor Certification: Contractor/Subcontractor Employees Background: Texas Education Code Chapter 22 requires that criminal history records be obtained regarding covered employees of entities that contract with school districts (“Contractors”) and entities that contract with school district contractors (“Subcontractors”). Covered employees with disqualifying criminal histories are prohibited from serving at a school district. Contractors shall (1) complete this form certifying compliance with the requirements of Texas Education Code Chapter 22 to CISD; and (2) provide a copy of this form to each subcontractor for completion certifying compliance with the requirements of Texas Education Code Chapter 22 to CISD and Contractor. Criminal history records will be obtained by either the Contractor/Subcontractor or CISD, as follows: (1) Contractor/Subcontractor: Pursuant to guidance from the Texas Education Agency, the only contractors/subcontractors who will be

granted access to fingerprint criminal history are those who qualify for access under the National Child Protection Act (NCPA), specifically, those contractors/subcontractors who provide “care or care placement services” and are based in Texas. All entities qualifying for access under the NCPA are required to obtain their covered employees’ criminal histories, certify compliance to CISD (and, in the case of a Subcontractor, certify compliance to Contractor and CISD), and obtain similar certifications from their subcontractors. For more information or to set up an account, a contractor/subcontractor should contact the Texas Department of Public Safety’s Crime Records Service at 512.424.2474.

(2) CISD: All entities who do not qualify for access to fingerprint criminal history under the NCPA (in other words, all contractors/subcontractors who do not provide “care or care placement services” or are not based in Texas) are required to follow the instructions listed below, so that CISD may obtain their covered employees’ criminal histories, as applicable. Contractor/Subcontractor is responsible for the payment of all fingerprinting costs. Should CISD pay any costs of fingerprinting Contractor/Subcontractor employees, Contractor agrees to reimburse CISD for such costs; in the event Contractor fails to reimburse CISD for the costs of fingerprinting Contractor/Subcontractor employees, Contractor agrees that CISD may deduct such costs from any payment due and owing by CISD to Contractor.

Definitions: Covered employees: Employees of a contractor/subcontractor who have or will have continuing duties related to the service to be performed at a school district and have or will have direct contact with students. CISD will be the final arbiter of what constitutes continuing duties and direct contact with students. Continuing duties related to contracted services: Work duties that are performed pursuant to a contract to provide services to a school entity on a regular, repeated basis rather than infrequently or one-time only. See 19 TEX. ADMIN. CODE §153.1101(2). Direct contact with students: The contact that results from activities that provide substantial opportunity for verbal or physical interaction with students that is not supervised by a certified educator or other professional district employee. Contact with students that results from services that do not provide substantial opportunity for unsupervised interaction with a student or students, such as addressing an assembly, officiating a sports contest, or judging an extracurricular event, is not, by itself, direct contact with students. However, direct contact with students does result from any activity that provides substantial opportunity for unsupervised contact with students, which might include, without limitation, the provision of coaching, tutoring, or other services to students. See 19 TEX. ADMIN. CODE §153.1101(7). Public Works Exception to Covered Employees: Covered employees do not include employees of a contracting or subcontracting entity that is providing engineering, architectural, or construction services on a project to design, construct, alter, or repair a public work if: (1) the public work does not involve the construction, alteration, or repair of an instructional facility as defined by Texas Education Code Section 46.001; (2) the employee’s duties will be completed more than seven (7) days before a new instructional facility will be used for instruction; or (3) for an existing instructional facility, the work area contains sanitary facilities separated from all areas used by students by a fence at least six (6) feet high, and the Contractor adopts, informs employees of, and enforces a policy prohibiting employees and any subcontractor’s employees from interacting with students or entering areas used by students.

Disqualifying criminal history: • For employees of a contracting or subcontracting entity that is providing engineering, architectural, or construction services on a

project to design, construct, alter, or repair a public work: (1) a conviction or other criminal history information designated by CISD; (2) a felony or misdemeanor offense that would prevent a person from being employed under Texas Education Code § 22.08341(d), that is: conviction during the preceding 30 years (if at the time of the offense, the victim was under 18 or was enrolled in a public

school) of: (a) a felony offense under Title 5, Texas Penal Code; (b) an offense on conviction of which a defendant is required to register as a sex offender under Chapter 62, Texas Code of Criminal Procedure; or (c) an offense under federal law or the laws of another state that is equivalent to (a) or (b).

• For employees of all other contracting or subcontracting entities: (1) a conviction or other criminal history information designated by CISD; (2) a felony or misdemeanor offense that would prevent a person from being employed under Texas Education Code § 22.085(a), that is: (a) conviction of a felony offense under Title 5, Texas Penal Code if at the time of the offense, the victim was under 18; (b) conviction of or placement on deferred adjudication community supervision for an offense for which a defendant is required to register as a sex offender under Chapter 62, Texas Code of Criminal Procedure; or (c) conviction of an offense under federal law or the laws of another state that is equivalent to (a) or (b).

Types of Criminal History Record Information: • For employees hired by Contractor/Subcontractor before January 1, 2008—Any law enforcement or criminal justice agency. • For employees hired by Contractor/Subcontractor on or after January 1, 2008—National criminal history information from the Texas

Department of Public Safety criminal history clearinghouse.

On behalf of (“Contractor/Subcontractor”), I, the undersigned authorized signatory for Contractor/Subcontractor, certify to Campbell Independent School District (“CISD”) (and, in the case of a Subcontractor, certify to Contractor and CISD) that [check one]:

[ ] None of the employees of Contractor/Subcontractor are covered employees, as defined above. If this box is checked, I further

certify that Contractor/Subcontractor has taken precautions or imposed conditions to ensure that its employees will not become covered employees. Contractor/Subcontractor will maintain these precautions or conditions throughout the time the contracted services are provided. If CISD, in its sole discretion, determines that employees of Contractor/Subcontractor are covered employees, as defined above, Contractor/Subcontractor will provide CISD with the name, date of birth, and any other requested information of such covered employees so that CISD may obtain criminal history record information on the covered employees, upon request of CISD.

Or [ ] Some or all of the employees of Contractor/Subcontractor are covered employees, and Contractor/ Subcontractor qualifies for

access to fingerprint criminal history under the National Child Protection Act. If this box is checked, I further certify that: (1) Contractor/Subcontractor has obtained all required criminal history record information regarding its covered employees.

None of the covered employees has a disqualifying criminal history. (2) If Contractor/Subcontractor receives information that a covered employee subsequently has a reported criminal history,

Contractor/Subcontractor will immediately remove the covered employee from contract duties and notify CISD in writing within 3 business days.

(3) Upon request, Contractor/Subcontractor will provide CISD with the name, date of birth, and any other requested information of covered employees so that CISD may obtain criminal history record information on the covered employees.

Or [ ] Some or all of the employees of Contractor/Subcontractor are covered employees, and Contractor/Subcontractor does not qualify

for access to fingerprint criminal history under the National Child Protection Act. If this box is checked, I further certify that: (1) For all covered employees hired by Contractor/Subcontractor before January 1, 2008, Contractor/Subcontractor has obtained

all required criminal history record information. None of the covered employees has a disqualifying criminal history. If Contractor/Subcontractor receives information that a covered employee subsequently has a reported criminal history, Contractor/Subcontractor will immediately remove the covered employee from contract duties and notify CISD in writing within 3 business days. Upon request, Contractor/Subcontractor will provide CISD with the name, date of birth, and any other requested information of covered employees so that CISD may obtain criminal history record information on the covered employees.

(2) For each covered employee hired by Contractor/Subcontractor on or after January 1, 2008, Contractor/Subcontractor has attached a separate page(s) listing the following information regarding each covered employee, so that CISD may obtain the covered employees’ criminal history record information: (a) Full name (first, middle, and last); and (b) Date of birth.

(3) Contractor/Subcontractor shall provide CISD’s “Texas Fingerprint Service Code Form” document to all covered employees and ensure that they schedule fingerprinting appointments in a timely manner. Any covered employee whose criminal history record information is not received by CISD at least ten (10) CISD business days prior to the start of the services to be performed by Contractor/Subcontractor at CISD is subject to exclusion from service, in CISD’s sole discretion, until his or her

criminal history record information can be obtained and reviewed by CISD. Contractor/Subcontractor is responsible for the payment of all fingerprinting costs. In accordance with the Texas Education Agency guidance, because Contractor/Subcontractor does not qualify for access to fingerprint criminal history under the NCPA, it will not be permitted to view the criminal history record information from DPS.

(4) Contractor/Subcontractor agrees that CISD will review each covered employee’s criminal history record information, together with the employee’s qualifications, background, and experience, based on information gathered by CISD through the procurement and/or contracting processes, to determine, in CISD’s sole discretion, whether any covered employee(s) should be prohibited from serving at CISD. CISD will notify Contractor/Subcontractor of its determination.

(5) If CISD at any time receives information that a covered employee subsequently has a reported disqualifying criminal history or should be prohibited from serving at CISD, in CISD’s sole discretion, for any other reason, including, but not limited to, the employee’s qualifications, background, and experience, based on information gathered by CISD through the procurement and/or contracting processes, CISD will notify Contractor/Subcontractor of its determination. Contractor/Subcontractor will immediately remove the covered employee from contract duties.

If CISD, in its sole discretion, objects to the assignment of a covered employee for any reason, including, but not limited to, on the basis of the covered employee’s criminal history record information and/or insufficient qualifications, lack of experience, and the like, based on information gathered by CISD through the procurement and/or contracting processes, Contractor/Subcontractor agrees to discontinue using that covered employee to provide services at CISD. I also certify to CISD (and, in the case of a Subcontractor, certify to Contractor and CISD) on behalf of Contractor/Subcontractor that Contractor/Subcontractor has required its subcontractors to comply with Texas Education Code, Chapter 22 and obtained certifications from its subcontractors of such compliance. Noncompliance or misrepresentation regarding this certification may be grounds for contract termination.

General Instructions Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless otherwise noted. Future developments. The IRS has created a page on IRS.gov for information about Form W-9, at www.irs.gov/w9. Information about any future developments affecting Form W-9 (such as legislation enacted after we release it) will be posted on that page.

Purpose of Form A person who is required to file an information return with the IRS must obtain your correct taxpayer identification number (TIN) to report, for example, income paid to you, payments made to you in settlement of payment card and third party network transactions, real estate transactions, mortgage interest you paid, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation of debt, or contributions you made to an IRA.

Use Form W-9 only if you are a U.S. person (including a resident alien), to provide your correct TIN to the person requesting it (the requester) and, when applicable, to:

1. Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are waiting for a number to be issued),

2. Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or 3. Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S. exempt payee. If

applicable, you are also certifying that as a U.S. person, your allocable share of any partnership income from a U.S. trade or business is not subject to the

withholding tax on foreign partners’ share of effectively connected income, and

4. Certify that FATCA code(s) entered on this form (if any) indicating that you are exempt from the FATCA reporting, is correct. Note. If you are a U.S. person and a requester gives you a form other than Form W-9 to request your TIN, you must use the requester’s form if it is substantially similar to this Form W-9. Definition of a U.S. person. For federal tax purposes, you are considered a U.S. person if you are: • An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien, • A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States, • An estate (other than a foreign estate), or • A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7). Special rules for partnerships. Partnerships that conduct a trade or business in the United States are generally required to pay a withholding tax under section 1446 on any foreign partners’ share of effectively connected taxable income from such business. Further, in certain cases where a Form W-9 has not been received, the rules under section 1446 require a partnership to presume that a partner is a foreign person, and pay the section 1446 withholding tax. Therefore, if you are a U.S. person that is a partner in a partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States, provide Form W-9 to the partnership to establish your U.S. status and avoid section 1446 withholding on your share of partnership income.

Form W-9 (Rev. 8-2013) Page 2

In the cases below, the following person must give Form W-9 to the partnership for purposes of establishing its U.S. status and avoiding withholding on its allocable share of net income from the partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States: • In the case of a disregarded entity with a U.S. owner, the U.S. owner of the disregarded entity and not the entity, • In the case of a grantor trust with a U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner, generally, the U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner of the grantor trust and not the trust, and • In the case of a U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust), the U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust) and not the beneficiaries of the trust. Foreign person. If you are a foreign person or the U.S. branch of a foreign bank that has elected to be treated as a U.S. person, do not use Form W-9. Instead, use the appropriate Form W-8 or Form 8233 (see Publication 515, Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities). Nonresident alien who becomes a resident alien. Generally, only a nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax treaty to reduce or eliminate U.S. tax on certain types of income. However, most tax treaties contain a provision known as a “saving clause.” Exceptions specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to continue for certain types of income even after the payee has otherwise become a U.S. resident alien for tax purposes.

If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exception contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exemption from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must attach a statement to Form W-9 that specifies the following five items:

1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien.

2. The treaty article addressing the income. 3. The article number (or location) in the tax treaty that contains the saving

clause and its exceptions. 4. The type and amount of income that qualifies for the exemption from tax. 5. Sufficient facts to justify the exemption from tax under the terms of the treaty

article. Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an exemption

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

If you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity, give the requester the appropriate completed Form W-8 or Form 8233. What is backup withholding? Persons making certain payments to you must under certain conditions withhold and pay to the IRS a percentage of such payments. This is called “backup withholding.” Payments that may be subject to backup withholding include interest, tax-exempt interest, dividends, broker and barter exchange transactions, rents, royalties, nonemployee pay, payments made in settlement of payment card and third party network transactions, and certain payments from fishing boat operators. Real estate transactions are not subject to backup withholding.

You will not be subject to backup withholding on payments you receive if you give the requester your correct TIN, make the proper certifications, and report all your taxable interest and dividends on your tax return.

Payments you receive will be subject to backup withholding if:

1. You do not furnish your TIN to the requester, 2. You do not certify your TIN when required (see the Part II instructions on page

3 for details), 3. The IRS tells the requester that you furnished an incorrect TIN, 4. The IRS tells you that you are subject to backup withholding because you did

not report all your interest and dividends on your tax return (for reportable interest and dividends only), or

5. You do not certify to the requester that you are not subject to backup withholding under 4 above (for reportable interest and dividend accounts opened after 1983 only).

Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding. See Exempt payee code on page 3 and the separate Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.

Also see Special rules for partnerships on page 1. What is FATCA reporting? The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) requires a participating foreign financial institution to report all United States account holders that are specified United States persons. Certain payees are exempt from FATCA reporting. See Exemption from FATCA reporting code on page 3 and the Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.

Updating Your Information You must provide updated information to any person to whom you claimed to be an exempt payee if you are no longer an exempt payee and anticipate receiving reportable payments in the future from this person. For example, you may need to provide updated information if you are a C corporation that elects to be an S corporation, or if you no longer are tax exempt. In addition, you must furnish a new Form W-9 if the name or TIN changes for the account, for example, if the grantor of a grantor trust dies.

Penalties Failure to furnish TIN. If you fail to furnish your correct TIN to a requester, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect. Civil penalty for false information with respect to withholding. If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in no backup withholding, you are subject to a $500 penalty. Criminal penalty for falsifying information. Willfully falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment. Misuse of TINs. If the requester discloses or uses TINs in violation of federal law, the requester may be subject to civil and criminal penalties.

Specific Instructions Name If you are an individual, you must generally enter the name shown on your income tax return. However, if you have changed your last name, for instance, due to marriage without informing the Social Security Administration of the name change, enter your first name, the last name shown on your social security card, and your new last name.

The name on the “Name” line must be the name shown on the income tax return on which the income should be reported.

If you are an LLC that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner under Regulation section 301.7701-3 (except for employment and excise tax), do not check the LLC box unless the owner of the LLC (required to be identified on the “Name” line) is another LLC that is not disregarded for U.S. federal tax purposes. If the LLC is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner, enter the appropriate tax classification of the owner identified on the “Name” line. Other entities. Enter your business name as shown on required U.S. federal tax documents on the “Name” line. This name should match the name shown on the charter or other legal document creating the entity.

Part I. Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. If you are a resident alien and you do not have and are not eligible to get an SSN, your TIN is your IRS individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN). Enter it in the social security number box. If you do not have an ITIN, see How to get a TIN below.

If you are a sole proprietor and you have an EIN, you may enter either your SSN or EIN. However, the IRS prefers that you use your SSN.

If you are a single-member LLC that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner (see Limited Liability Company (LLC) on page 2), enter the owner’s SSN (or EIN, if the owner has one). Do not enter the disregarded entity’s EIN. If the LLC is classified as a corporation or partnership, enter the entity’s EIN. Note. See the chart on page 4 for further clarification of name and TIN combinations. How to get a TIN. If you do not have a TIN, apply for one immediately. To apply for an SSN, get Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Card, from your local Social Security Administration office or get this form online at www.ssa.gov. You may also get this form by calling 1-800-772-1213. Use Form W-7, Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, to apply for an ITIN, or Form SS-4, Application for Employer Identification Number, to apply for an EIN. You can apply for an EIN online by accessing the IRS website at www.irs.gov/businesses and clicking on Employer Identification Number (EIN) under Starting a Business. You can get Forms W-7 and SS-4 from the IRS by visiting IRS.gov or by calling 1-800- TAX-FORM (1-800-829-3676).

If you are asked to complete Form W-9 but do not have a TIN, apply for a TIN and write “Applied For” in the space for the TIN, sign and date the form, and give it to the requester. For interest and dividend payments, and certain payments made with respect to readily tradable instruments, generally you will have 60 days to get a TIN and give it to the requester before you are subject to backup withholding on payments. The 60-day rule does not apply to other types of payments. You will be subject to backup withholding on all such payments until you provide your TIN to the requester. Note. Entering “Applied For” means that you have already applied for a TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon. Caution: A disregarded U.S. entity that has a foreign owner must use the appropriate Form W-8.

Part II. Certification To establish to the withholding agent that you are a U.S. person, or resident alien, sign Form W-9. You may be requested to sign by the withholding agent even if items 1, 4, or 5 below indicate otherwise.

3. Real estate transactions. You must sign the certification. You may cross out item 2 of the certification.

4. Other payments.
