21. Shape the Future FAQ Who are Microsoft’s partners in this offer? All OEMs will be able to fulfill this offer and provide a Windows device to a school. Two of our partners are joining us in this announcement today-- Dell and Lenovo. Is Microsoft Surface included in the offer? No, Surface is not part of this offer, but Microsoft offers education discounts on Surface products, and is proud to partner with America's schools. How do schools qualify for this offer? The Federal Government identifies all public K-12 schools on its site, the National Center for Education Statistics. Every public K-12 school on that list is eligible for the offer. There are about 100,000 such schools in the U.S. How does a school prove they are entitled to the discounted offer? The Department of Education has identified all public US K-12 schools on its site, the National Center for Education Statistics. Every public US K-12 school on that list is eligible for the offer. Districts and schools should contact their local Microsoft or reseller representative to assist in obtaining a copy of the offer Letter of Eligibility. Are private schools eligible for this offer? This offer is for government funded schools only. Will this offer be available in Microsoft retail stores? No, this offer is only sold through OEM partners. Our stores do offer a 10% discount for students/faculty, however and occasionally have significant offers on Surface devices. This offer is for institutional customers and not a direct offer to consumers. Do schools need to conduct a formal RFP to get the devices? No, with the Letter of Eligibility that a school or district can obtain from Microsoft, schools can go directly to their OEM partners and purchase devices in any quantity. Schools can continue to purchase through tender, RFP or their existing methods. Is there a minimum quantity for ordering? No, a school can purchase as many devices as needed. There is no minimum or maximum. Is this offer limited to any specific type of device? The OEMs will select and bring to market great devices. We believe we will see our OEMS deliver a range of devices including tablets, PCs and laptops. How much will schools be paying for each device? We don’t have exact dollar amounts – those final decisions will be up to the hardware partners like Dell, Lenovo, etc. However, we expect a range of prices – all significantly decreased – of which schools can take advantage to place these very powerful tools in the hands of students.

22. Student Advantage FAQ How does this announcement about a Student Advantage benefit relate to existing Student Option? Starting December 1, 2013, a new benefit called Student Advantage will be available for EES and OVS-ES customers. Academic institutions licensing Microsoft Office organization-wide for all faculty/staff via EES, OVS-ES or School contracts will be eligible to offer Office 365 ProPlus to their students at no additional cost. To take advantage of this benefit, institutions will need to order the ‘Office 365 ProPlus w/Faculty’ SKU for students through their LAR or an AER. Paid Student Option remains available and can be leveraged by institutions that don’t have staff/faculty coverage on Office or who would like to provide their students with Office Professional Plus, which includes graduation rights for students. Should I position this offer as “free Office for students”? No, the preferred way to discuss this offer is to say that student pricing for access to Office 365 ProPlus is included in the price for faculty and staff. How does a school sign up for Student Advantage? A customer must first qualify for Student Advantage by covering 100% of faculty & staff on Microsoft Office under Volume Licensing. A customer may then add Student Advantage to its existing EES, OVS-ES, or School contract by placing an order for the ‘Office 365 ProPlus w/Faculty’ SKU in a quantity of licenses that covers the number of students in its organization as defined in the volume license agreement. Are there any changes to the existing Student Option? There are no changes to the Office offerings through the paid Student Option. Microsoft will continue to have Student Option available that can be leveraged by institutions that do not have full staff/faculty coverage on Office or that would like to provide their students with Office Professional Plus (including a perpetual license to Students at graduation). My customer is already paying for Student Option. When can they move to Student Advantage? Institutions that already have Office through paid Student Option can add Student Advantage anytime, provided they meet the conditions of this licensing benefit. However, they may only adjust their Student Option products and quantities at their renewal. Also, please keep in mind that Student Advantage does not provide any perpetual licenses of Office upon graduation.. My customer just paid for Student Option. Will they get credit back? There is no credit for the invoice already paid. Institutions that already have Office through Student Option can switch to this new offer at their next renewal provided they meet all the conditions of this licensing option. Why are there two Office 365 Pro Plus Student Option SKUs? Paid Student Option SKUs are avaiable for customers who do not wish to license Faculty/Staff organization-wide or are not ready to move to the cloud. For eligible Student Advantage customers, there is specific ‘Office 365 ProPlus w/Faculty’ SKU. Can students get the non-cloud version, Office Professional Plus, instead of Office 365 ProPlus, for no cost? No, Student Advantage is only available to customers ordering Office 365 ProPlus for their student population via EES, OVS-ES, and School contracts.
