Gifts, including promotional merchandise Blocks, pens and other stationary used during campaign are not considered as gifts therefore not counted towards gift limit. Allowable if the gifts are of nominal value and the associated expenses are within the per-person and per-MAR, even if IBM is not reimbursing those expenses. Local ground transportation Allowable if Business Partner arranges the transportation as a courtesy to transport attendees to a local marketing event and the expenses are within the per-MAR limit even if IBM is not reimbursing those expenses. External speakers Allowable for external speakers (excluding GOE Employee, IBM employee and Business Partner customer or prospective customer employee speakers), if the expenses are reasonable and customary in amount and frequency and within the per-MAR limit in Section 5.0, Spending Limits, even if IBM is not reimbursing those expenses. IBM will not reimburse travel/lodging expenses for speakers. If those expenses are not itemized in an invoice, then Business Partner will contact the speaker to identify them and will not seek reimbursement of the expenses from IBM.

  9. EXPENSES I. Non- Reimbursable Expenses: A. Sales incentives B. Advertorials (advertising presented in an editorial format) C. Business Partner salaries for staff to support marketing efforts, except where explicitly permitted by an Incentive Offering. Where Business Partner staff salaries are reimbursable per an IO, the following remain non-reimbursable expenses: recruitment fees, benefits and overhead costs associated with staff, as well as costs of existing resources for demand generation activities (e.g., costs for sales teams used for telemarketing) D. Services, capital equipment or equipment used in routine business operations, such as furnishings, telephone equipment, corporate signage or company stationery E. Demonstration equipment or equipment such as personal computers, laptops, monitors or visual aid products F. Fees to purchase a Conference Pass to attend an IBM event (other than those fees Business Partner pays for a Sponsorship Package that includes Conference Passes) G. Sponsorship fees that a Business Partner charges to IBM for IBM participation in a Business Partner-led event (for clarity, Business Partner may not use co-marketing funds to cover such fees; rather, if IBM wishes to participate in the event, it will pay the fees directly) H. Travel, including lodging, living (such as per diems) and transportation (such as flights and taxi fares) I. Gift cards J. Marketing tactics involving competitive products and technologies, in the absence of IBM’s pre-approval to engage in such tactics IBM will NOT deny an entire claim because Business Partner incurs a non- reimbursable expense.

  10. EXPENSES II. Actions/Expenses that cause an entire Claim to be ineligible A. Conduct that violates, or that IBM reasonably believes violates, (a) any applicable laws, including local or agency government regulations or ethics policies, as well as anti-bribery laws (such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act) or (b) any of the terms of the Agreement, including the Business Partner Code of Conduct and these Terms and Conditions* B.

Paying for a sponsorship at an event that is hosted by or for the benefit of a not-for-profit organization, in the absence of prior approval from IBM’s Corporate Citizenship and Corporate Affairs group IBM would reserve the right to deny an entire claim, not just a portion of it. IBM will NOT deny an entire claim because Business Partner incurs a non-reimbursable expense.

  11. GOOD to remember… Activity Descriptions and Cost Estimates: All events require detailed activity descriptions and cost estimates for any planned meals/refreshments, gifts, local ground transportation and speakers. IBM will not reimburse a claim for any expense category where Business Partner provided a ,,zero,, estimates for that category. Per-Person Limits: All per-person business amenity limits set are “not to exceed” amounts (i.e., Business Partner may not expend greater amounts for those business amenities, even from its own separate funds). Submission of all related tactics under one MAR: Business Partner agrees to include all related marketing tactics in the same MAR. For example, where Business Partner uses Advertising and Internet Marketing to drive attendance at a trade show, the Advertising, Internet Marketing and trade show are all related marketing tactics, and should be included in the same MAR. The per-person limit applies for all of the marketing tactics covered by a MAR, not separately for each tactic. Business Venue: A briefing center, conference center, exhibit hall or a restaurant with a separate private meeting room, where the restaurant and meeting room are each appropriate for a business meeting. Tradeshow Sponsorships: For IBM tradeshows, Business Partners can sponsor IBM arranged and pre-approved coffee / dessert breaks, meals and Receptions For third party trade shows, Business Partners can sponsor ONLY coffee / dessert breaks Conference Passes: For 3rd party tradeshows, conference passes must be used by the Business Partner employees or returned to the event organizer. Conference passes cannot be given to IBM employees or clients!
