T h a t the University enter into an agreement with Control Data Corporation providing for maintenance of the equipment and acquisition by the University of a paid-up license for software to be used in connection with the CYBER 170 Model 175-8 computer mainframe. The maintenance agreement calls for monthly payments of $19,833 and is on an annual renewable basis subject to current conditions and availability of funds. T h e paid-up software license is priced at $317,980, and funds for this license acquisition are included in the 1976-77 operating budget request of the Computing Services Office. The University, as a part of this transaction, would agree to cooperate with Control Data in providing documentation on system conversion and making recommendations and suggestions regarding product improvement and the effective use of the system. If the Board subsequently approves the acquisition of a CDC mass storage facility, CDC will be entitled to receive similar information and documentation, including software and hardware techniques, with respect to it. Finally, it is recommended that the Comptroller and the Secretary of the Board of Trustees be authorized to execute on behalf of the University the lease agreements with the University of Illinois Foundation and the Illinois Educational Consortium described above and to execute with the Control Data Corporation an agreement for maintenance and software license as described, and to execute such other legal documents as may be necessary to implement this plan.
