PURPOSE

The University Guest Presenter Recording Agreement is used to formalize arrangements with Artists, Speakers, or Lecturers (hereafter "Artist" or "Guest") who will be digitally recording themselves giving a presentation and the recording is provided to The Pennsylvania State University ("University") in a mutually agreed upon digital format.

GENERAL INFORMATION

The University must have written agreements with individuals who are speaking or presenting at a University event - whether in person or virtually including seminars, courses and public forums. The University Guest Presenter Recording Agreement is one agreement to be used to issue a payment to an individual, a corporation, a company, or an association when Guest will be providing a recording to the University, for use by the University, and has been recommended for use by the Office of General Counsel to ensure that the agreement is binding on both parities, regardless of the dollar amount, or lack thereof, to be paid to the Guest.

The University Guest Presenter Recording Agreement MUST be signed by the Office of Central Procurement and said authorization is obtained by submitting the Procurement Contract Request Intake Form and uploading the University Guest Presenter Recording Agreement which has been signed by the entity providing the recording.

Individuals who will receive payment from the University must obtain a SIMBA Supplier number. All current and future suppliers need to register with the University's on-boarding partner, PaymentWorks to manage their profile and related information. SIMBA supplier numbers are generated for new suppliers after they complete their registration with PaymentWorks. Supplier invitations to register with PaymentWorks can be requested through the Office of Central Procurement (PSUsuppliers@psu.edu) or listed delegated authorities. A completed W9 Form must be upload to PaymentWorks as part of the registration process.
