According to the Pennsylvania Antibid-Rigging Act, 73 P.S., 1611 et seq., governmental agencies may require Non-Collusion Affidavits to be submitted together with bids. 2. This Non-Collusion Affidavit must be executed by the members, officer, or employee of the bidder who makes the final decision on prices and the amount quoted in the bid. 3. Bid rigging and other efforts to restrain competition, and the making of false sworn statements in connection with the submission of bids are unlawful and may be subject to criminal prosecution. The person who signs the Affidavit should examine it carefully before signing and assure himself or herself that each statement is true and accurate, making diligent inquiry, as necessary, of all other persons employed by or associated with the bidder with responsibilities for the preparation, approval or submission of this bid. 4. In the case of a bid submitted by a joint venture, each party to the venture must be identified in the bid documents, and an Affidavit must be submitted separately on behalf of each party. 5. The term complementary bid as used in the Affidavit has the meaning commonly associated with that term in the bidding process, and includes the knowing submission of bids higher than the bid of another firm, any intentionally high or noncompetitive bid, and any other form of bid submitted for the purpose of giving a false appearance of competition. 6. Failure to file an Affidavit in compliance with these instructions will result in disqualification of the bid.

9 NON-COLLUSION AFFIDAVIT CONTRACT FOR (List name of item or job you are bidding on) STATE OF : COUNTY OF : I state that I am of (Title) and that I am (Name of my firm) authorized to make this affidavit on behalf of my firm, and its owners, directors, and officers. I am the person responsible in my firm for the price(s) and the amount of this bid. I state that: 1. The price(s) and amount of this bid have been arrived at independently and without consultation, communication or agreement with any other contractor, bidder or potential bidder. 2.

No attempt has been made or will be made to induce any firm or person to refrain from bidding on this contract, or to submit a bid higher than this bid, or to submit any intentionally high or noncompetitive bid or other form of complementary bid. 4. The bid of my firm is made in good faith and not pursuant to any agreement or discussion with, or inducement from, any firm or person to submit a complementary or other noncompetitive bid. 5., its affiliates, subsidiaries, officers, directors and employees are not currently under investigation by any governmental agency and have not in the last three years been convicted or found liable for any act prohibited by State or Federal law in any jurisdiction, involving conspiracy or collusion with respect to bidding on any public contract, except as follows:

10 I state that (Name of firm) understands and acknowledges that the above representations are material and important, and will be relied on by Oley Valley School District in awarding the contract(s) for which this bid is submitted. I understand and my firm understands that any misstatement in this affidavit is and shall be treated as fraudulent concealment from Oley Valley School District of the true facts relating to the submission of bids for this contract. 6. A statement above that a person or firm has been so convicted or found liable does not prohibit the Oley Valley School District from accepting a bid from or awarding a contract to such bidder, but may be a ground for consideration by the Oley Valley School District on the question whether the District should decline to award a contract to the bidder on the basis of a lack of responsibility.
