ZC 24.09 Conditional Annexation Tallawampa Properties, LLC to R-2 December 2, 2024
Summary of Request:
Applicant, Jay Broughton, acting on behalf of the Owner, Tallawampa Properties LLC, is requesting conditional
annexation to R-2, Medium Density Single-Family Residential District to be known as the Tallawampa
Subdivision. The property is approximately 5.20 acres and is located at 0 Gayfer Road Ext. The property is
currently zoned RSF-E by Baldwin County.
Figure 1: Map of subject and adjacent properties.

ZC 24.09 Conditional Annexation Tallawampa Properties, LLC to R-2 December 2, 2024
County Zoning Map
Comments:
The subject property currently is vacant. The subject property is bordered to the East by a Fairhope PUD
“Tin Tops at Gayfer” Ordinance #1789, to the north by County zoned RA, the west by County zoned B1, and
south across Gayfer Rd. Ext. by County zoned RSF-E and County zoned B2.
As with any request for a zoning map amendment, we must consider the initial desire, as well as how the
property may be utilized in the future. The surrounding area zoned by Baldwin County is recent. The
surrounding properties were developed while the properties were unzoned. Thus giving a mixture of uses in
the area. Staff does not believe this area supports the density of R-2. R-2 has a lot size minimum
requirement of 75’ wide and 10,500sf minimum lot area. Annexing into the City as R-1 would be a more
Page 50 of 481

ZC 24.09 Conditional Annexation Tallawampa Properties, LLC to R-2 December 2, 2024
appropriate zoning. The current RSF-E County zoning requires 165’ minimum wide lot frontage and 80,000sf
minimum lot area.
A Re-Zoning Request is considered a Zoning Map Amendment, and the application is reviewed pursuant to the
Criteria in Art. II, Section B(1)(e).
(1)Compliance with the Comprehensive Plan;
Response: The 2024 Comprehensive Plan has this area categorized as Suburban Residential areas which
includes some of the largest lot sizes within single-family detached neighborhoods in Fairhope.
(2)Compliance with the standards, goals, and intent of this ordinance;
Response: Does not meet. The property is currently zoned RSF-E by Baldwin County and the most similar
district is R-1.
(3)The character of the surrounding property, including any pending development activity;
Response: Does not meet. The surrounding properties area comprised of larger lots with the buildings
pushed away from the street.
(4)Adequacy of public infrastructure to support the proposed development;
Response: Meets. A subdivision would require improvements to the existing infrastructure.
(5)Impacts on natural resources, including existing conditions and ongoing post-development
conditions;
Response: Meets. This zoning change will not negatively impact natural resources or current/future
conditions. The Zoning Ordinance and Tree Ordinance already provide protections and buffers.
(5)Compliance with other laws and regulations of the City;
Response: Meets. Any future development is subject to all applicable laws of the
City.
(6)Compliance with other applicable laws and regulations of other jurisdictions;
Response: Meets. Any future development is subject to all applicable laws.
(7)Impacts on adjacent property including noise, traffic, visible intrusions, potential physical impacts,
and property values; and
Response: Adjacent properties would be impacted less by a less dense zoning.
(8)Impacts on the surrounding neighborhood including noise, traffic, visible intrusions, potential
physical impacts, and property values.
Response: Adjacent neighborhoods would be impacted less by a less dense zoning.

Jason,
Per your request for a proposal regarding a Phase I Cultural Resources Survey of approximately 1.7 acres
for the proposed Fairhope Industrial Site Development in Baldwin County, Alabama, All Phases Archaeology,
LLC (APA) provides the following information:
The purpose of the proposed cultural resources study will be to determine if any prehistoric or historic
properties exist within the project boundaries, and if so to document and assess each based on criteria for
designation for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). All work will be conducted in
compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, as amended, and with standards set by
the Alabama Historical Commission (AHC). This work will be supervised by a RPA-certified archaeologist
who meets or exceeds the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Archaeology and Historic
Preservation.
The field survey will document all cultural resources within the study area (Figure 1). The specific goals
of the survey will be to: 1) describe the distribution of cultural resources within the APE; 2) determine the
location and condition of cultural resources, especially regarding potential NRHP eligibility; 3) determine
the types of cultural resources present; 4) classify the types of individual cultural resources present; and
5) record the physical extent of specific resources. In areas where shovel testing is not possible, standard
archaeological techniques will be implemented, especially visual observation of the ground surface.
SURVEY METHODOLOGY
Each shovel test will be screened through ¼-inch hardware mesh screens and all cultural material will be
collected and recorded by individual provenience. Approximately 8 initial transect shovel tests are estimated
within the project boundaries (Figure 2). Shovel tests will measure roughly 30 cm in circumference and will
be dug to at least 80 cmbs or subsoil or water is reached. Excavated shovel tests will be completely refilled
immediately after excavation.

4 - Phase I survey
No tests will be left open overnight during the course of this Phase I survey. Stratigraphy, soil types, and
artifact depth will be recorded for each shovel test. All field work will be documented and supplemented by
way of photographs and standardized field forms.
SITE DELINEATION
When archaeological sites are discovered, the site area will be mapped, recording the location of all shovel
tests (positive and negative), any surface material, topography, relative position to natural resources such as
water, and other information that is determined useful for site interpretation. Delineation shovel tests will be
placed in a cruciform pattern at 5 or 10-meter intervals to help define the horizontal and vertical limits of the
site. This method of testing will continue until two negative shovel tests are encountered or until delineations
extend beyond the project boundaries. Any artifacts that would be recovered during the investigation will
be bagged by provenience, and returned to APA’s laboratory for analysis.
Handheld Garmin and/or Trimble GPS units will be used to record UTM coordinates for shovel tests and
for all archaeological sites discovered. Photographs will be taken of the site area and any features located at
the site. Archaeological sites and other cultural resources will be evaluated to a preliminary level necessary
for determining its potential eligibility for nomination to the NRHP. Alabama state forms will be completed
for any newly discovered sites.
ARCHITECTURAL ASSESSMENT
In addition to the archaeological survey, an architectural assessment will be conducted for this project. The
purpose of the architectural assessment is to determine the effect, if any, on historic architectural resources
located within the project area. APA will evaluate any extant buildings over the 50 year threshold for eligibility
for the NRHP. Historic resource forms will be completed for any resources meeting this criteria.
REPORTING
Following the fieldwork and analysis of laboratory materials and other data, APA will produce a report
of the survey to be reviewed by any necessary review agencies, meeting Alabama report format guidelines.
The report will be of publishable quality, both in format and content. Professionally drafted maps will be
included in the report and will be in pdf format. APA will provide bound and digital copies of the final report.
APA can provide all necessary personnel and equipment to conduct the investigation for a lump sum
total of $3,000.00. Please feel free to contact me at 205-242-8898 should you have any questions or need
for additional information.
Sincerely,
Jon Glass
President

Order Form.
2. AGREEMENT. Perry Weather agrees to provide to Customer the applicable Software and/or Hardware upon the terms specified in the Order
Form, Quote, and these Terms and Conditions (collectively, the “Agreement”). In the event of a conflict between the Order Form, Quote,
and/or these Terms and Conditions, the terms in the Order Form shall control over both the Quote and these Terms and Conditions, and the
terms of the Quote shall only control over a conflicting term in these Terms and Conditions. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement
and any cooperative purchasing agreement that may govern certain terms of the purchase and licensing of Software and Hardware, this
Agreement shall control.
3. PAYMENT. Customer will pay all fees specified in Order Form and/or Quote and agrees to the payment terms listed in each Order Form
and/or Quote, as supplemented by these Terms and Conditions. Unless otherwise set forth in an Order Form or Quote, payment for invoices
are due upon receipt. Payments made by credit card will be subject to an additional processing fee. Late payment fees will be charged as
follows: (a) one percent (1%) per month or part thereof will be charged for any payment that is more than 30 days late; (b) Payment should be
made to: Perry Weather, 1355 Motor Circle, Dallas, TX 75207. As between Perry Weather and Customer, Customer agrees to pay all taxes,
including sales, use, excise, purchase, goods and/or services, value-added and other taxes levied against, imposed upon or otherwise arising
in connection with the provision of services, and/or any other goods or their use as contemplated hereunder, exclusive, however, of taxes
based on Perry Weather’s income, which shall be paid by Perry Weather.
4. TERM AND TERMINATION. The initial term of each subscription shall be as specified in the applicable Order Form and/or Quote. Except as
otherwise specified in an Order Form and/or Quote, this Agreement and any subscriptions will automatically renew for additional periods equal
to the expiring subscription term, unless either party gives the other notice of non-renewal at least 30 days before the end of the relevant
subscription term. Either party may terminate this Agreement for cause by written notice if the other party breaches this Agreement and such
breach remains uncured thirty (30) days after the breaching party received written notice. The termination of this Agreement shall not entitle
Customer to a refund, in whole or in part, of any amounts paid for Sold Hardware. Upon and after termination or expiration of this Agreement,
all licenses granted hereunder will immediately terminate.
5. HARDWARE WARRANTY. Perry Weather warrants that the Sold Hardware shall conform in all material respects to Perry Weather published
specifications for a period of one (1) year from the date of installation, and further warrants the battery will remain operational for a period of
three (3) years from the date of initial unit installation. This warranty is extended only to the original Customer and only covers failures due to
defects in materials or workmanship that occur during normal operation. It does not cover basic maintenance (such as solar panel cleaning or
clearing clogged rain gauges), damage caused by improper self-installation, failures that are caused by products not supplied by Perry
Weather, or failures that result from accident, vandalism, misuse, tampering or abuse, mishandling, unauthorized alteration, modification or
relocation, lightning or other weather events, line power surge, or “Acts of God.” Perry Weather’s obligation under this warranty shall be limited
to exchange or replacement of any Sold Hardware or parts (excluding labor costs or installation), which may prove defective under normal use
within one (1) year from date of installation, and which Perry Weather’s examination shall disclose to its satisfaction to be defective.
6. CONSULTING SERVICES. It is understood and agreed that the Software and any Meteorological Consulting services provided to Customer
by Perry Weather pursuant to this Agreement are only advisory in nature. As in the case of similar products or services provided by the
meteorological consulting industry, the Software and Meteorological Consulting services are in part based on data provided by third parties
and user input. Therefore, Perry Weather cannot and does not warrant or assume responsibility for the accuracy of the Software or
Page 235 of 481
2 of 4
Meteorological Consulting provided by Perry Weather. From time to time, Perry Weather may reasonably change, update, discontinue, or
replace the Meteorological Services or features of the Software without notice and as it deems necessary.
7. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED ABOVE, THE HARDWARE, METEOROLOGICAL CONSULTING SERVICES,
OTHER SERVICES, AND SOFTWARE AND DATA DISPLAYED THEREIN ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS.
EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 5 AND 6 ABOVE, PERRY WEATHER MAKES NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, TO
CUSTOMER, OR TO ANY AUTHORIZED USER OR THIRD PARTY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF QUALITY, ACCURACY,
PERFORMANCE, COMPATIBILITY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.
CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT PERRY WEATHER IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ACCURACY OF ANY INFORMATION OR
DATA CONTAINED IN THE HARDWARE, SOFTWARE, OR SERVICES AND PERRY WEATHER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY
LOSSES RESULTING FROM CUSTOMER’S OR ANY AUTHORIZED USER’S RELIANCE ON ANY SUCH INFORMATION OR DATA
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. PERRY WEATHER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE HARDWARE, SOFTWARE, OR
METEOROLOGICAL CONSULTING SERVICES WILL BE ERROR-FREE OR THAT THE HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE WILL WORK
WITHOUT INTERRUPTIONS.
8. LIGHTNING DISCLAIMER. It is not possible to predict or detect when and where lightning will strike or has struck with 100% accuracy. Perry
Weather does not guarantee or warrant that the Hardware, Software, or any associated Meteorological Consulting services, will be error-free
or able to predict or detect lightning with any specified degree of accuracy. Customer acknowledges that lightning strikes are outside of Perry
Weather’s ability to control, detect, or predict and waives and releases Perry Weather and its data providers from any and all claims and
liability related to any form of damage caused by lightning. Perry Weather uses data from Vaisala and other third parties in its Hardware,
Software, and Meteorological Consulting. EXPERIENCE HAS PROVEN THAT THE TIMELINESS, RESOLUTION AND MANNER IN WHICH
LIGHTNING DATA IS DISPLAYED DOES NOT SOLELY SUPPORT THE EFFECTIVE OR RELIABLE USE OF THE DATA IN MAKING
DECISIONS OF AN IMMEDIATE OR SHORT-TERM NATURE THAT INVOLVE THE SAFETY OF PERSONNEL OR ASSETS. ANY SUCH
APPLICATIONS OR SIMILAR USES BY CUSTOMERS ARE DONE AT THE RISK OF THE USER AND ARE NEITHER CONDONED NOR
RECOMMENDED BY PERRY WEATHER, VAISALA, VAISALA’S SUPPLIERS, OR PERRY WEATHER’S OTHER THIRD-PARTY
PROVIDERS.
9. OWNERSHIP AND POSSESSION OF THE HARDWARE. Title to any Subscription Hardware shall at all times remain in Perry Weather and
Customer shall have only the right to retain the possession of said Subscription Hardware pursuant to the conditions in this Agreement.
Customer shall give Perry Weather immediate notice of any claim, levy, lien, or legal process issued against the Subscription Hardware.
Customer will not place, nor allow to be placed, the Subscription Hardware in the possession of any other party, save and except to return the
Subscription Hardware to Perry Weather. Customer hereby agrees that it will not, nor will it allow, the Subscription Hardware to be
encumbered in any form. Customer will not allow any lien to be placed upon the Subscription Hardware, will not pledge the Subscription
Hardware as collateral for any debt, current or future, and will immediately notify Perry Weather of any legal actions, proceedings or the threat
thereof, which might result in the encumbrance of the Subscription Hardware.
10. OPERATION, ALTERATIONS, MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION OF THE HARDWARE. Customer shall be responsible for the
maintenance and repair of Sold Hardware subject to the warranties set forth in Section 5. Perry Weather shall be responsible for maintenance
and repair to any Subscription Hardware, including parts and shipping but excluding labor (which will be charged at Perry Weather’s
customary rates), due to defective components or workmanship, damage or malfunction caused by wind, hail, lightning, clogged rain gauges,
dirty solar panels, and defective battery (such battery replacement limited to three (3) years from date of initial unit installation). In all other
cases, Customer shall be responsible for maintenance and repair to Subscription Hardware (and shall pay such Perry Weather fees
associated therewith), including, but not limited to, damage caused by vandalism, tampering, unauthorized modification or relocation, misuse
or accident, damage caused by improper self-installation, or theft. Customer shall use the Hardware in a careful and proper manner and shall
comply with all laws, ordinances, regulations and instruction from Perry Weather relating to the possession, use, or maintenance of the
Hardware. Customer agrees that it will make no alterations to any Subscription Hardware without obtaining prior written permission and
instruction from Perry Weather. If Customer desires that Perry Weather physically relocate Hardware after initial installation, additional service
fees will apply. All additions and improvements to the Subscription Hardware of any kind shall immediately become the property of Perry
Weather and subject to the terms of this Agreement. Customer shall promptly notify Perry Weather within three (3) business days following
any event or occurrence that would require maintenance or repair to the Subscription Hardware. The amount payable under this Agreement
shall not be reduced by the loss of use of any Hardware. Perry Weather shall have the right at any time, following seventy-two (72) hours prior
written notice to Customer, to enter the premises occupied by the Subscription Hardware and shall be given free access thereto and afforded
necessary facilities for the purpose of inspection.
11. RISK OF LOSS. Customer hereby assumes all risks of loss of and damage to the Hardware from any cause (including, but not limited to, self-
installation of the Hardware by Customer) and agrees to return any Subscription Hardware to Perry Weather in as good condition as when
received. No loss of or damage to the Hardware shall impair any obligation of Customer under this Agreement, and all such obligations shall
continue in full force and effect until otherwise discharged.
12. RETURN OF HARDWARE. Upon termination of this Agreement, Customer agrees to deliver, at Customer’s sole cost and expense, the
Subscription Hardware in good condition, ordinary wear and tear resulting from proper use thereof alone excepted, and free and clear of
encumbrances, to Perry Weather, or allow Perry Weather to enter the premises occupied by the Subscription Hardware to remove such
Subscription Hardware. In the event Customer elects to have Perry Weather remove the Subscription Hardware, Customer will be responsible
for fees associated with the uninstallation services rendered.
13. LIABILITY. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH HEREIN, CUSTOMER AND SUBSEQUENT USERS OF SOFTWARE AND
HARDWARE HEREBY WAIVE AND RELEASE PERRY WEATHER FROM ANY LIABILITY FOR DAMAGE OR INJURY CAUSED BY
METEOROLOGICAL CONSULTING, SOFTWARE, SELF-INSTALLATION OF HARDWARE BY CUSTOMER AND HARDWARE
OPERATION ON ANY PREMISES.

14. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT TO THE OTHER PARTY, OR
ANY THIRD PARTY, FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, NOMINAL, INDIRECT, STATUTORY, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR
PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS, DIMINUTION IN VALUE, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF TIME,
INCONVENIENCE, LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, DAMAGE TO GOOD WILL OR REPUTATION, AND COSTS OF COVER,
REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY IS BASED ON BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE,
AND EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR SUCH DAMAGES COULD HAVE BEEN REASONABLY
FORESEEN. EACH PARTY’S ENTIRE AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIMS RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING
ATTORNEYS’ FEES, SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($100,000.00). THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION
DO NOT APPLY TO CUSTOMER’S PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS OR CUSTOMER’S LIABILITY FOR DAMAGE TO THE HARDWARE. THIS
SECTION SHALL SURVIVE THE TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT.
15. LICENSE AND DATA RIGHTS. Perry Weather hereby grants to Customer a non-exclusive license to use any Software furnished to Customer
as identified on the Order Form and/or Quote, including any restrictions on the number of authorized users. Customer shall not have the right
to assign, sublicense, rent, lease, lend, publish, distribute or otherwise transfer such license except as otherwise provided herein. No title to or
ownership of the Software or any unmodified parts thereof is transferred to Customer under this license. Customer shall not copy any Software
in whole or in part, nor shall it attempt to derive or determine the source code (or the underlying ideas, algorithms, structure or organization) of
the Software. As between Perry Weather and Customer, Perry Weather is and will remain the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and
interest in and to all weather-related data (irrespective of how such data is collected), including all intellectual property and other rights relating
thereto.
16. INDEMNIFICATION. Perry Weather will indemnify, defend and hold Customer harmless from and against any third-party claims, losses,
liabilities, damages, expenses and costs, including attorney’s fees and court costs (i) as to any rightful claim that Customer's use of the
Software, Hardware or Meteorological Services infringes a United States patent or copyright, (ii) that arises from the breach by Perry Weather
of its obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) resulting from personal injury or property damage that arises from Perry Weather’s
recklessness, gross negligence, or willful misconduct when any Perry Weather employee or contractor is on-site at Customer’s premises. The
party seeking indemnification shall provide the indemnifying party with prompt written notice of any claim and give complete control of the
defense and settlement of the indemnifying party, and shall cooperate with the indemnifying party, its insurance company and its legal counsel
in its defense of such claim(s); if, however, Perry Weather is indemnifying Customer for a claim that Perry Weather, the Hardware, and/or the
Software infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party, Perry Weather shall have complete control of the defense and settlement of
said claim. This indemnity shall not cover any claim in which there is a failure to give the indemnifying Party prompt notice to the extent such
lack of notice prejudices the defense of the claim. In the defense or settlement of a claim, or if use of the Hardware or Software is enjoined,
Perry Weather may, at its expense and option: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Hardware or Software; (b) replace or
modify the Hardware or Software so they become non-infringing; or if neither of these is practical, (c) grant Customer a credit for the Hardware
or Software as depreciated and accept return of the Hardware or Software as applicable. Depreciation shall be an equal yearly amount over
the lifetime of the Hardware or Software, as established by Perry Weather. Perry Weather will not be liable to Customer for any claim that is
based upon: (i) use of the Hardware or Software in modified form or in a manner for which they were not designed; (ii) use of the Hardware or
Software in combination with goods or services not provided by Perry Weather; (iii) use of the Hardware or Software in practicing any process;
or (iv) furnishing to Customer of any information, service or applications assistance. The foregoing states the entire liability of Perry Weather
with respect to infringement of patents or copyrights by any Hardware or Software provided by Perry Weather.
17. GOVERNING LAW, VENUE,. The validity, construction, and interpretation of the terms and conditions herein and all rights and duties of Perry
Weather and Customer, and all matters related to the products and services covered by this Agreement, shall be governed by the substantive
laws of the State of Alabama without regard to conflict of laws rules that would confer the matter in question to a state other than Alabama.
Customer and Perry Weather agree that any action brought by Customer against Perry Weather shall be venued only in the in the State of
Alabama.
18. EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES. Except for Customer’s payment obligations under this Agreement, neither Perry Weather nor the
Customer shall be liable for nonperformance caused by circumstances beyond their control, including but not limited to, work stoppages,
pandemics, floods, lightning and all other acts of God.
19. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement is the entire agreement between Customer and Perry Weather regarding the subject matter of this
Agreement, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals or representations, written or oral, concerning its subject
matter.
20. ASSIGNMENT. Except to the extent assigned to a related entity or as a part of the sale of all or substantially all of its assets or as a part of a
merger, sale, or other corporate transaction, neither party shall assign this Agreement, or any interest in this Agreement, without the other
party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Except in connection with an approved assignment, Customer
shall not provide access to Software, or any part of it, to any third parties without Perry Weather’s prior written consent, which consent shall be
in Perry Weather’s sole discretion. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties, their respective
successors and permitted assigns.
21. EQUITABLE REMEDIES. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in
accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief or specific performance of
the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
22. ATTORNEYS' FEES. In the event that any party institutes any legal suit, action, or proceeding, including arbitration, against the other party to

4 of 4
party in the suit, action, or proceeding shall be entitled to receive, in addition to all other damages to which it may be entitled, the costs
incurred by such party in conducting the suit, action, or proceeding, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and court costs.
23. NOTICES. All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers, and other communications hereunder (each, a "Notice") shall be in
writing to the parties at the addresses set forth in the Agreement (or to such other address that may be designated by the receiving party from
time to time in accordance with this Section). All Notices shall be delivered by personal delivery, nationally recognized overnight courier (with
all fees pre-paid), or email (with confirmation of transmission), or certified or registered mail (in each case, return receipt requested, postage
pre-paid). Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a Notice is effective only (a) upon receipt by the receiving party, and (b) if the party
giving the Notice has complied with the requirements of this Section.
24. SEVERABILITY. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or
unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in
any other jurisdiction.
25. WAIVER. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party
so waiving. No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach, or default not expressly
identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to
exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.
26. RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. Nothing herein shall be construed to create a joint venture or partnership between the parties hereto or
an employee/employer or agency relationship. Neither party hereto shall have any express or implied right or authority to assume or create
any obligations on behalf of or in the name of the other party or to bind the other party to any contract, agreement, or undertaking with any
third party.
27. MISCELLANEOUS. Each term and provision of this Agreement that should by its sense and context survive any termination or expiration of
this Agreement, shall so survive regardless of the cause and even if resulting from the material breach of either Party to this Agreement. Each
of the sections contained in this Agreement will be enforceable independently of every other section in this Agreement, and the invalidity or
non-enforceability of any section will not invalidate or render unenforceable any other section contained in this Agreement. Perry Weather may
amend this Agreement from time to time by sending Customer written notice thereof. Such amendment will be deemed accepted and become
effective 30 days after such notice (the “Proposed Amendment Date”) unless Customer first gives Perry Weather written notice of rejection of
the amendment. In case of such rejection, this Agreement will continue under its original provisions, and the amendment will become effective
at the start of Customer’s next renewal term following the Proposed Amendment Date (unless Customer first terminates this Agreement

form, (ii) the Business Services Agreement-General Terms and Conditions (the "General Terms"), (iii) any Operating Policies applicable to the users of any
Mediacom Service generally , (iv) in the case of Mediacom Business Phone, tariffs, and (v) any other terms that are made applicable to any such Mediacom Service
pursuant to the General Terms or such Operating Policies, tariffs or Service Guide, in each case as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Video services which have a monthly service rate may have a local broadcast station surcharge and/or a regional sports surcharge added to the monthly rate to cover
costs associated with the retransmission of local broadcast signals and/or regional sports networks. These surcharges vary by location and may change based on
programming price increases.
1. ORDER EVALUATION; CUSTOMER COMMUNICATION; MEDIACOM’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE AGREEMENT
After the final execution of this Agreement, Mediacom will conduct a more detailed evaluation of the actions and items needed to be completed, including but not
limited to whether permits or easements are required, and a more precise accounting of its related construction costs to provide Service. Upon completion of that
evaluation, Mediacom will send you notice via email or another communications method informing you of the same (the “Customer Communication”). In some
cases, Mediacom may determine, based on such evaluation, that it cannot or is unwilling to provide the Service(s) on the terms stated herein. In those cases,
Mediacom has the right to terminate this Agreement with no further liability or obligation by providing written notice to Customer.
2. ESTIMATED CONSTRUCTION COSTS; CUSTOMER’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE
The estimated construction cost is the amount Mediacom estimates it may cost to build its network so that it may provide the Service(s) requested by Customer;
the actual construction cost may vary based on the specific project and may be more (or less) than the estimate. Customer may, as its sole right and remedy,
terminate this Agreement with no further liability by giving Mediacom written notice within 3 days of receipt of the Customer Communication, (Mediacom
Business Solutions, Attn: Legal Department, One Mediacom Way, Mediacom Park, NY 10918).
3. PAYMENT OF CONSTRUCTION COSTS
Customer is responsible for the cost of any documented construction expenses when such charges are in excess of $2,500.00. In such cases, Customers shall pay
the excess construction costs upon receipt of invoice or under an installment agreement where Customer promises to pay Mediacom the excess construction costs
over the course of a specified number of months. If Customer chooses to pay in this manner, Customer will be required to sign an installment agreement which
will state, among other things, the amount of the monthly payment, the number of payments, the payment due date, any late charges that may be assessed,
prepayment and associated penalty and whether and under what circumstances Mediacom has the right to accelerate payments.
4. MONTH-TO-MONTH SERVICE TERM
Services will continue on a month-to-month basis unless otherwise terminated in accordance with Section 10 of the General Terms and Conditions or either party
terminates this Agreement by providing at least thirty days prior written notice to the other.
By its signature below, each party acknowledges that it has read this Agreement, including the General Terms and incorporated terms located at
https://mediacombusiness.com/MediacomBusiness_General_Terms_9.pdf and agrees to its terms effective as of date signed by Customer (“Effective Date”).

BUSINESS SERVICES AGREEMENT ORDER FORM
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Access to Premises
Customer agrees to provide Mediacom all necessary or desirable access at all reasonable times to the Premises, adequate secured space in the
Premises for the cable, wiring, equipment and other items supplied by Mediacom (“Mediacom Facilities”) and adequate electrical power, climate
control and protection against fire, theft, vandalism and casualty, to insure that non-Mediacom-supplied wiring, equipment and other items in the
Premises are adequate and compatible with the Mediacom Facilities and to obtain all governmental and other third-party authorizations needed for
access to and work on the Premises. Access shall be permitted 24 hours a day, seven days a week to deal with an outage or emergency.
2. Purchase of Services; No Resale
Other than Customer’s authorization of Service to End Users for use in accordance with this Agreement, Customer shall not, and shall not permit
any End User or other person to, (i) resell, distribute or provide any Service to any person(s), (ii) provide or extend any Service for secondary uses
in any location other than the Premises or (iii) use any Service for any unlawful activity, engage in any unauthorized copying, taping, posting,
downloading, sharing or other reproduction or dissemination of any third party’s copyrighted or proprietary music, movies, television programming
or other material or disable or interfere with any copy/retransmission protection technology contained in the signal of any programming service or
otherwise used.
3. Fees and Charges
Customer agrees to pay Mediacom, when due, the Monthly Service Fee for each Service, all other fees and charges provided for in this Agreement
and all federal, state and local taxes, copyright, FCC and franchise fees and pass-throughs and other governmental charges or surcharges from time
to time levied upon Customer or Mediacom because of or based on the services or other items furnished (excluding taxes on Mediacom’s income).
All recurring Monthly Service Fees are billed in advance. Installation/Set-up Fee is due at time installation. All other fees and other amounts may
be billed and will be due in accordance with Mediacom’s standard practices in effect from time to time. Overdue payments accrue interest at 1.5%
per month or, if less, the maximum lawful rate. Customer shall reimburse Mediacom for its collection agency fees, attorneys’ fees and other
reasonable costs and expenses of collecting any overdue amount. The Monthly Service Fee for each Service includes the kind and level of support
service, if any, that Mediacom normally provides without separate charge in the same community to customers receiving comparable service.
Mediacom may charge Customer for additional support service. If, for any period, support for the Premises exceeds that typical for similar
customers, Mediacom may charge Customer an appropriate additional fee.
4. Relationships with End Users
Customer shall be solely responsible for entering into and performing all agreements and arrangements related to provision of any Service to End
Users, including connecting or disconnecting the Service. Usage of any Service by any End User or other person in or through the Premises shall
be subject to, and constitutes acceptance of, Mediacom’s applicable subscription or customer agreement, terms, conditions and policies, as from
time to time in effect and modified or replaced by Mediacom in its discretion (“Subscriber Terms”). Continued use of any Service after any change
to or replacement of the Subscriber Terms constitutes acceptance. Mediacom may suspend or terminate any or all Services to the Premises as a
whole if Customer breaches this Agreement, if Mediacom believes in good faith that any user on the Premises may have violated any applicable
Subscriber Terms or under any other circumstances stated in the Subscriber Terms.
5. Equipment
5.1 Customer Premise Equipment Supplied by Mediacom
If requested by Mediacom, Customer shall promptly replace customer premises equipment supplied by Mediacom that is installed on the Premises
(“CPE”) with substitute equipment and return the original equipment to Mediacom unless it is equipment that Customer has purchased and paid
for in full (“Purchased Equipment”). If Mediacom upgrades or otherwise changes the kind of required CPE generally throughout the System, then
it may increase the applicable Monthly Service Fee by the amount of any increased charge for the newly required item (and for any integrated
services) that it from time to time applies generally within the System. On the date that the Service Term ends for any reason, Customer shall
promptly return any and all CPE in Customer’s possession or control (other than Purchased Equipment) to Mediacom.
5.2 Equipment Not Supplied by Mediacom
In addition to a cable modem, use of the Service requires that a User supply their own computers, Ethernet devices (if required) and operating
systems that meet our technical requirements, and Customer acknowledges that Mediacom has made those requirements available to Customer
before the execution and delivery of this Agreement. If the Service cannot be used because of the incompatibility of any of such items with the
Service, Customer will remain liable for all fees and charges under this Agreement. Customer is solely responsible for any unavailability,
degradation or interruption of the Service, damage to equipment, software or property or loss of data or other consequences suffered by Customer
or any User resulting from use by Customer or other Users of any modem, computer, operating system or other item that does not conform to our
technical requirements. Mediacom will not be obligated to provide customer support relating to any issues or problems that result from use of any
such nonconforming item. The fact that we rent, sell, recommend, require or approve a cable modem, computer, operating system or other item
for use in the Service does not make us responsible if it has defects or problems. It is strongly recommended that the number of computers
connected through a proxy or hub not exceed five computers per modem. Mediacom is not responsible or liable for any degradation in speed or
functionality of the Service or other consequences if Customer does not follow that recommendation. Mediacom is not responsible for the
performance, maintenance or repair of equipment or other items it does not furnish.
6. User Software
In connection with the Service, Mediacom may periodically require or permit Customer to download, install or use software or firmware and
related documentation (“Software”) that is (or claimed as) the intellectual property of Mediacom or of one or more of its affiliates, licensors or
Page 253 of 481
MB-GT-JL-LP-0618 2 CONFIDENTIAL & PROPRIETARY
suppliers (“our Licensors”). Use of any such Software is governed by this Agreement and any additional terms that Mediacom identifies as
applicable, as they may be periodically modified or replaced (“Additional Terms”).
7. Certain Obligations of Customer.
Customer shall take reasonable steps to protect the Mediacom Facilities and all other property of Mediacom from damage, loss or theft while on
the Premises and shall pay the reasonable costs of repairing or replacing any item suffering such loss, theft or damage not caused by Mediacom.
Customer shall not, and shall not permit any End User or other person to, (i) interfere with provision of Mediacom Services or disturb, alter,
disconnect, move or interfere with any of the Mediacom Facilities or grant any easement or right that could have any such effect, (ii) attach,
connect, interconnect, install or place any equipment, cable, wire, fiber or other item to, with, through or in any Mediacom Facilities or any related
conduits, racks, lock boxes, connection boxes, distribution frames or similar items or (iii) use any of the Mediacom Facilities in any manner or for
any purpose except as expressly authorized by Mediacom in writing.
8. Mediacom Business Phone
8.1 Tariffs
Telephone Services may be provided pursuant to rates, terms, and conditions contained in tariffs on file with state and/or federal regulatory
authorities, and Mediacom may amend such tariffs and Telephone Service shall be subject to such tariffs, as amended.
8.2 International Services
If Customer wishes to subscribe to or use International Calling Services from Mediacom, Customer may activate that function by providing
Mediacom a credit card number to secure payment for such services. Customer will be billed for all services including International Calling
monthly and shall pay all invoices timely.
8.3 Customer Proprietary Network Information (“CPNI”)
Pursuant to federal law, CPNI is (A) information that relates to the quantity, technical configuration, type, destination, location, and amount of use
of a telecommunications service subscribed to by Customer, and that is made available to Mediacom by Customer solely by virtue of the carrier-
customer relationship; and (B) information contained in the bills pertaining to telephone service received by Customer. Mediacom will not use,
disclose, or permit access to Customer’s CPNI except in connection with the provision of services from which such information is derived, or as
authorized or required by federal law, or as expressly authorized by Customer. The Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) has adopted
additional rules in 47 C.F.R. § 64.2010 that would restrict our ability to disclose certain information to or permit certain changes to accounts by
inbound callers or visitors to our offices, and that would regulate our ability to provide customers with account access over online portals. However,
the FCC permits business customers and their telephone service providers to agree to more flexible customer authentication methods that are better
suited for an efficient business relationship. Customer hereby agrees that its dedicated account representative assigned by Mediacom and
Mediacom’s personnel who are responsible for commercial accounts may disclose your CPNI or make changes to your account at the request of
persons that they reasonably believe to be your authorized representatives, that Mediacom may provide online access to your CPNI in any
commercially reasonable manner, and that the requirements of Section 64.2010 of the FCC’s rules shall not apply to the relationship between
Mediacom and Customer.
9. Mediacom Online Service
9.1 Services
The Services may be used only by Customer’s authorized users while physically present at a Service Location or Premises, except that Customer
may allow its employees to also access the Service through Customer’s internal network from authorized remote locations. The only authorized
users of the Service are your employees and persons whom you allow to use the Service while at a Service Location in furtherance of a commercial
relationship with you. Neither you nor any User may directly or indirectly (i) resell the Service to any person in any manner, or (ii) use the Service
in support of or otherwise in connection with the sale of any telecommunications, Internet access or television or other video or music service to
third parties. Customer is responsible for providing technical or other support required by any User. “User” means you and any other person that
uses or accesses any Service, whether or not authorized. You are responsible for restricting use of the Service to authorized Users for authorized
purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Customer permits or makes possible use of the Service by any person under eighteen,
Customer is responsible for such use and agrees to hold Mediacom harmless from such use. Mediacom recommends that any such use by a minor
be permitted only under the supervision of a responsible adult. Inclusion in this Agreement of references to Users does not give any User any right
or remedy.
9.2 IP Addresses
Unless the ISP Features expressly include assignment of static IP addresses, IP addresses related to the Service will be dynamically assigned. IP
addresses are subject to the policies and procedures of any third party from whom Mediacom obtains such addresses and of the Internet Assigned
Numbers Authority, the registrar authorizing the use of the IP addresses, and the Internet Engineering Task Force, the issuing registrar. Mediacom
makes no representations or warranties regarding: (i) the ability to obtain or to continue to use any particular IP addresses, or (ii) the route ability
of any IP addresses. Customer’s use of all IP addresses allocated to Customer by Mediacom must cease upon expiration or termination of this
Agreement. All IP addresses assigned by Mediacom will continue to be the property of Mediacom or its suppliers, are not transferable by Customer
and must be relinquished by Customer upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
9.3 Acceptable Use Policy
(a) Use of the Service by each User must comply with Mediacom’s Business Acceptable Use Policy (the “BAUP”). The BAUP is posted online at
Business Acceptable Use Policy (mediacombusiness.com)and any future changes will be posted there or at another Webpage we
Page 254 of 481
MB-GT-JL-LP-0618 3 CONFIDENTIAL & PROPRIETARY
designate by notice to Service customers. Since the BAUP may be revised periodically, Customer and other Users should regularly visit the
appropriate webpage to be sure the most recent version is being followed. The Service shall not be used by Customer or any other User in any way
that violates any law, infringes, violates or constitutes a misappropriation of any person’s intellectual property, publicity, privacy or other legally
protected rights, otherwise violates the BAUP, interferes with the use of the networks and services of Mediacom by any other customer or subjects
Mediacom or any of its suppliers, contractors, agents or affiliates to liability. Mediacom shall not be liable to Customer or any other User for any
action we take if we believe that Customer or any other User has violated the BAUP, any law or regulation or any third-party rights. Customer
agrees that those actions may include immediate suspension or termination of the Service or removal of or restriction of access to content or
material. We may take those actions without notice to Customer or any other User. The Service may also be subject to blocking if used in a manner
that places a disproportionate burden on the Mediacom Network or any of the Shared Networks, impairs services received by other customers or
otherwise adversely affects Mediacom, its service providers or any of the Shared Networks. (b) Subject to applicable law, Mediacom may, at any
time and periodically modify or replace our Acceptable Use Policy. Mediacom will give Customer at least ten days’ prior notice of any such
changes that, in our good faith judgment, materially adversely affect Customer’s rights or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise with
respect to the Service, except that shorter advance notice may be given if We believe reasonably and in good faith that We or the Service might be
adversely affected if longer notice were given. We will give notice by a posting at business.mediacomcable.com/baup (or another Web location of
which Customer is notified) or via e-mail, postal mail or another appropriate means. Customer will ensure that all Users are informed of and
comply with the terms of this Agreement, including Mediacom’s AUP. Customer will be liable for any non-compliance by any User.
9.4 Risks of Internet Usage
The Service enables access to the Internet and, therefore, to the Websites and content of third parties, some of which may be offensive to Customer
or some Users or may violate law or protected rights of others. Third parties may misuse the Internet, including to promote fraudulent schemes or
to sell products or services that are misrepresented. Mediacom has no responsibility or liability with respect to the Websites, information, products,
services, content or other materials of third parties that are accessed, distributed, provided or advertised through or over the Service. Technological
characteristics of the Internet and methods of access may create the risk that third parties will gain unauthorized access to a User’s computer, files
and communications or learn about the User and his, her or its activities. Use of the Internet may result in the introduction into Customer’s or a
User’s computers or internal network of computer viruses or other harmful elements. The foregoing is not an exhaustive list of the risks associated
with Internet access and Customer fully understands those risks. It is Customer’s or each User’s sole responsibility to prevent and detect
unauthorized access, to protect against damage to or destruction of hardware, software, files and data because of infection by computer virus or
other harmful attacks and other risks. Mediacom is not responsible or liable for the actions of third parties or harm, loss, damage or other
consequences to Customer or Users resulting from such actions. Use of the Service is at your and each User’s own risk, whether or not you use
any security, antivirus or other software, technology or method at our recommendation or otherwise.
10. Termination
If either party materially breaches its representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement, the other party may
terminate this Agreement upon at least thirty days’ prior written notice, unless such breach is cured within the notice period. If the breach is of
such a nature that it cannot reasonably be cured within the notice period, but it is curable and the party in breach promptly begins and diligently
continues to cure it, there shall be a reasonable additional period to complete the cure. Failure by Customer to make any payment due or a breach
of Section 2, 6, 7 or 20.11 of this Agreement shall constitute a material breach that shall not be curable. Initial and continued availability of any
Service is conditioned upon compliance by Customer with this Agreement, including all incorporated terms, and completion by Mediacom of the
necessary and desirable construction, installation and other work. Mediacom may terminate its obligation to activate or provide any Service if it
encounters unanticipated or higher than expected costs or expenses. Mediacom, in its discretion, may terminate this Agreement in whole or as to
one or more Services at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice.
11. Effects of Termination
Upon termination of any Service or this Agreement for any reason (i) Customer must pay all accrued and unpaid fees and charges; (ii) Mediacom’s
access rights granted above shall continue for the period reasonably required (but in no event less than 120 days) for Mediacom to recover its
property from the Premises; (iii) Customer and End Users must return all Mediacom-furnished equipment, software or other items (except
Purchased Equipment) in good condition, ordinary wear and tear resulting from proper use excepted; (iv) subject to all applicable limitations and
exclusions, all rights or remedies arising out of a breach of this Agreement shall survive for the applicable statute of limitations; and (v) the
provisions of this Agreement which state that they survive or which reasonably should be expected to survive expiration or termination (including
any provisions relating to disclaimers, limitations or exclusions of warranties and liability, confidentiality or indemnification) shall survive
indefinitely. In addition, if Customer entered an Installment Agreement to pay upfront construction costs over the course of a specified number of
months, Mediacom may accelerate the remaining balance in accordance with Section 7 of the Installment Agreement.
12. Warranty Disclaimer
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Mediacom disclaims all warranties not expressly and specifically set forth herein, whether express or
implied, including any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, that Mediacom’s systems, equipment, software or services
will be free of errors, outages or defects, as to upstream or downstream transmission speed or arising from course of dealing or practice.
13. Outages, Etc.
Mediacom shall not be liable for any outage, loss of functionality, interruption, deficiency in quality, speed or reliability of or other defect or
deficiency in any Service (an “outage or defect”) or any consequence that, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, is caused by or results from
any force majeure event or any act or omission of Customer, any End User or any other third party. If any outage or defect is caused solely by the
willful misconduct or gross negligence of an authorized employee or agent of Mediacom, then Mediacom’s sole liability and responsibility shall
be (i) to use commercially reasonable efforts to correct the problem within a reasonable time and (ii) if such outage or defect causes the Service
to be unavailable to all or substantially all of the Premises for twenty-four consecutive hours or more, to allow Customer a credit against future
Monthly Service Fees for such Service equal to one-thirtieth of the Monthly Service Fee for each period of twenty-four consecutive hours of
Page 255 of 481
MB-GT-JL-LP-0618 4 CONFIDENTIAL & PROPRIETARY
interruption, with a maximum of three credits in any calendar month. This Section supplements, and does not supersede, modify or otherwise
affect, any other exclusions, disclaimers or limitations of liability in this Agreement.
14. No Consequential Damages
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Customer agrees that none of the Mediacom Parties shall be liable (whether based on contract, warranty,
negligence, strict liability or other legal or equitable theory or cause of action) for any indirect, incidental, consequential, reliance, special or
punitive damages (or similar damages, however denominated) directly or indirectly arising out of, resulting from or relating to this Agreement or
its subject matter, performance, nonperformance or breach, any of the Mediacom Facilities or any Mediacom Service, even if aware that they
could result. This Section shall survive failure of any other disclaimer, exclusion or limitation or a finding of failure to provide an effective remedy.
“Mediacom Parties” means Mediacom and its stockholders, partners, members, affiliates, directors, officers, employees, contractors, agents or
representatives.
15. Limit On Direct Damages
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Customer agrees that none of the Mediacom Parties shall be liable (whether based on contract, warranty,
negligence, strict liability or any other legal or equitable theory or cause of action) for damages directly or indirectly arising out of, resulting from
or relating to this Agreement or its subject matter, performance, nonperformance or breach, any of the Mediacom Facilities or any Mediacom
Service in an amount that is, in the aggregate, for any and all persons and any and all claims, in excess of the lesser of (i) the Monthly Service Fees
actually paid to Mediacom by Customer during the three months ended most recently before the date liability for such damages arose or (ii) Five
Hundred Dollars.
16. Essential Element Of The Bargain
Each of the parties waives any claim for damages or costs excluded under this Agreement or in excess of any limit contained in this Agreement.
The provisions of Sections 12, 13, 14 and 15 and this Section 16 are essential elements of the bargain reflected in this Agreement and the parties
intend for them to be strictly enforced. If, in a final decision of a court having jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal), it is nonetheless held that
any of the disclaimers, exclusions or limitations contained herein may not be enforced, then in such jurisdiction the liability of Mediacom (or any
of the other Mediacom Parties) to any and all persons for any and all claims shall be limited to the smallest amount permitted by applicable law.
17. Indemnification
Customer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Mediacom Parties for, against and from any and all claims, demands, damages,
losses, penalties, actions, proceedings, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, directly or indirectly arising out of, resulting from or relating
to (i) Customer’s breach of this Agreement, (ii) injury to person or property or loss of life or property resulting from the condition or use of the
Premises, unless directly caused by the gross negligence of Mediacom or its contractors, agents or representatives while acting within the scope
of their employment, (iii) damage or loss to Mediacom or its affiliates or the Mediacom Facilities caused in whole or in part by Customer or any
of its contractors, agents or representatives or any End User or other person in any Unit, (iv) noncompliance with any of the Subscriber Terms by
any End User or other user of any Service or (v) any other act or omission of Customer or any of its contractors, agents or representatives.
18. Liquidated Damages for Agreements with a Service Term
For agreements that contain an obligation to purchase any Service for a specified Service Term (for example, 3 years), if the Customer breaches
such obligation, Customer shall pay to Mediacom an amount equal to the product of 75% of the combined Monthly Service Fees for the Services
multiplied by the number of months remaining in the Service Term (the “Liquidated Damages”). The parties intend that the Liquidated Damages
constitute compensation, and not a penalty. The parties acknowledge and agree that Mediacom’s harm caused by Customer breach would be
impossible or very difficult to accurately estimate as of the Effective Date of the Agreement, and that the Liquidated Damages are a reasonable
estimate of the anticipated or actual harm that might arise from Customer breach.
19. Arbitration
(a) Any and all claims or disputes (a “Claim”), including any past, present or future claims or disputes shall be resolved, upon the election of either
you or us, by binding arbitration pursuant to this Arbitration Provision and the procedures of the National Arbitration Forum (“NAF”) http://
www.adrforum.com/ or the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) http://www.adr.org/, as selected by the party electing to use arbitration.
(b) If you do not wish to be bound by this arbitration clause, you must notify Mediacom in writing within 60 days after receiving a copy of this
Agreement (Mediacom Legal Department, One Mediacom Way, Mediacom Park, NY 10918).
(c) Whoever files the arbitration pays the initial filing fee. The arbitrator will decide who will ultimately be responsible for paying those fees. In
no event will you be required to reimburse us for any arbitration filing, administrative, or hearing fees in an amount greater than what your court
costs would have been if the Claim had been resolved in a state court with jurisdiction.
(d)Any arbitration and its results shall be kept confidential, except as required by law or to enforce the award.
(e) The arbitrator shall strictly enforce this Agreement and may not modify its terms. Except to the extent provided by substantive law, the arbitrator
may award only damages or costs specifically permitted by this Agreement which are supported by admissible evidence and must apply all
exclusions, disclaimers and limitations of liability contained herein. The arbitrator’s decision is final and binding on all parties and may be enforced
in any federal or state court with jurisdiction.
(f) Neither party is precluded from seeking interim injunctive relief from a court in order to preserve the status quo, prevent irreparable harm or
protect assets or property until the arbitrator has been appointed and decided the matter of interim relief or resorting to court proceedings to enforce
the other party’s compliance with this Section 19. Nothing in this Section shall affect Mediacom’s right to suspend or terminate this Agreement or
Page 256 of 481
MB-GT-JL-LP-0618 5 CONFIDENTIAL & PROPRIETARY
any Service for non-payment or preclude it from bringing an action in court having jurisdiction to collect unpaid amounts plus its collection costs,
including attorneys’ fees.
(g) If any provision of this arbitration agreement should be found invalid or unenforceable by an arbitrator or court having proper jurisdiction,
such a determination shall not affect the enforceability of the remaining provisions, which shall continue in full force and effect. However, this
entire Section 19 shall be null and void with respect to any Claim if the “Class action waiver” paragraph above is held to be invalid or unenforceable
with respect to such Claim by an arbitrator or court having proper jurisdiction.
20. Miscellaneous
20.1 Independent Contractors; No Agency; Service Changes; Service is Non-Exclusive
The parties are independent contractors. Neither party shall have the authority to act for or to assume, create or incur any liability or obligation
binding upon the other party. Subject to mandatory, nonwaivable applicable law and the express provisions of this Agreement, Mediacom (i) may
change the terms, conditions, restrictions and policies applicable to any Service or add, delete, discontinue or change the composition, features,
specifications and functionality of any Service; and (ii) otherwise retains sole and absolute discretion as to all aspects of and matters relating to
any Service. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Mediacom (i) may alter the CATV Service (if separate), add or delete programming
networks or services or require use of a digital converter or other CPE to receive any or all networks or services, (ii) does not guarantee the
availability or continued availability of any programming service, network, program, Website or content and (iii) may institute or change limits
on number and storage capacity of e-mail accounts and personal Webspace, impose charges for bandwidth usage exceeding specified levels or take
other actions that affect any Service’s speed or other characteristics. Each Service is provided to Customer on a non-exclusive basis.
20.2 Force Majeure
Mediacom shall not be liable by reason of any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations because of strikes, shortages, fire, flood,
weather, war, riot, terrorism, governmental action, labor conditions, earthquakes, interruptions in telecommunications services, Internet access,
utilities or other services, acts or omissions of suppliers, carriers or other third parties, acts of God or any other cause beyond its reasonable
control, whether or not similar to the foregoing.
20.3 Persons Bound; Assignability; No Third Party Beneficiaries
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors, heirs, legal representatives and
permitted assigns. Customer may not assign or delegate this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, without
the prior written consent of Mediacom; provided, however, that Customer shall make the written assumption of this Agreement a condition of any
sale, transfer or assignment of the Premises and shall notify Mediacom in the event of any such sale, transfer or assignment. Whether or not
Customer complies with its obligation to require such assumption, the rights granted to Mediacom shall run with the land and this Agreement shall
bind each and every owner of the Premises. Mediacom may assign this Agreement or assign, delegate or subcontract any of its rights or obligations
hereunder to any of its affiliates, any successor (by sale of assets, merger or otherwise) to ownership or operation of the System or other person.
No End User or other person is a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement. Customer shall not be a third-party beneficiary of any contract,
agreement or arrangement between Mediacom and any End User
20.4 Severability
If any provision of this Agreement or its application to any person or circumstance is held by a court with jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable,
the remaining provisions, or the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances, shall remain in full force and effect. Such court
may substitute a suitable and equitable provision to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of the invalid or
unenforceable provision and, if the court does not do so, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon such a provision. Any provision
that is judicially unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not be affected in any other jurisdiction.
20.5 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial; No Class Actions
This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State in which the Premises are located; however, the Federal Arbitration Act shall govern
the arbitrability of disputes regarding this Agreement and any Service. Each party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any
right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. To the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law, the parties agree that there shall be no right to have any Claim litigated or arbitrated on a class action basis or as a
claim brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of persons similarly situated or the general public.
20.6 Entire Agreement
Customer accepts, and agrees that any Service shall be subject to, the Subscriber Terms, as they from time to time may be in effect and modified
or replaced from time to time by Mediacom, with the same effect as though incorporated herein and as if Customer were a customer thereunder,
except that any arbitration or payment provisions thereof are not incorporated. In the event of any conflict between the express provisions of the
Subscriber Terms incorporated herein and the express terms of this Agreement other than such incorporated provisions, the express terms of this
Agreement shall apply. This Agreement (including all incorporated terms) is the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to its subject
matter. No course of dealing or practice shall be used to interpret, supplement or alter the express written terms of this Agreement. The statements
made by a party otherwise than in an express written provision of this Agreement are not representations or warranties and do not create obligations.
By entering into this Agreement, Mediacom does not waive or impair any easement, license or rights it or any of its affiliates may have to access
to the Premises for any purpose under federal, state or local law, by contract or otherwise, and this Agreement does not supersede any other
agreement by which any such easement, license or right is granted.
Page 257 of 481
MB-GT-JL-LP-0618 6 CONFIDENTIAL & PROPRIETARY
20.7 Amendments; Waivers; Counterparts
Amendments of this Agreement must be in writing and signed by both parties. No failure or delay in exercising any power, right or remedy will
operate as a waiver. A waiver, to be effective, must be written and signed by the waiving party. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. To be effective, any amendment
or waiver on behalf of Mediacom must be signed by a duly authorized officer of Mediacom at the level of Vice President or above.
20.8 Specific Performance
Customer acknowledges that if it breaches any of its obligations under any of Sections 2, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 20.11 of this Agreement, Mediacom will be
irreparably harmed, and damages will be inadequate to compensate Mediacom for such breach. Accordingly, without limiting any other right or
remedy of Mediacom, Mediacom shall be entitled to specific performance or injunctive relief if there is any breach or threatened breach thereof.
This does not preclude Mediacom from seeking specific performance or injunctive relief in any other circumstance.
20.9 Remedies Are Cumulative
Unless otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement, all remedies (including suspension and termination rights) available under or with respect to
this Agreement are cumulative and in addition to all other remedies, if any, available at law or in equity. The prevailing party in any litigation or
arbitration between the parties arising out of this Agreement shall be entitled to recover its court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees.
20.10 Binding Agreement
Customer represents and warrants that it has all necessary right, power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement, and that this
Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of, Customer. The person
signing this Agreement on behalf of Customer represents and warrants that he or she is authorized by Customer (or the legal entity doing business
under the name defined as “Customer” above) to execute this Agreement as a binding obligation of Customer. The foregoing representation and
warranty shall survive the execution, delivery, expiration or termination of this Agreement.
20.11 No Disclosure of Terms, Etc.
Customer shall not disclose to any third party the specific terms of this Agreement or any other information that Mediacom has provided or
hereafter may provide to Customer and that is marked as confidential or proprietary or that because of its nature should reasonably be considered
to be confidential or proprietary information of Mediacom or any third party, other than disclosure under an obligation of confidentiality to (i) its
officers, employees, accountants and attorneys who need to know such information to perform their duties for Customer or (ii) any purchaser or
bona fide prospective purchaser of the Premises.
20.12 Notices
Any notice required or permitted to be given to a party under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered
personally, the next business day after being sent by reliable overnight courier or forty-eight hours after it is deposited in the United States mail
with registered or certified mail postage prepaid, in each case addressed to such party at its notice address below its signature to this Agreement
or another address designated by at least ten days’ prior written notice to the other party.
20.13 Certain Rules of Interpretation; Further Assurances
This Agreement shall be interpreted according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against either party, regardless of authorship. All definitions
apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Unless the context otherwise unambiguously requires, the word “or” means
“and/or.” The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The word “person”
shall be broadly construed and includes any natural person, any corporation, trust, association, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture
or other entity and any government or governmental agency, authority, body, instrumentality or subdivision. Whenever the context requires, any
pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. Headings in this Agreement shall not affect the interpretation of
this Agreement. The parties shall cooperate with each other in carrying out the purposes of this Agreement and use their commercially reasonable
efforts to cause third parties with whom they deal and whose cooperation is necessary to likewise cooperate.
20.14 Regulatory Change
If there is any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation or the interpretation thereof by any regulatory agency, court or other governmental
entity or authority or any decision in any judicial or administrative case or arbitration which, in the reasonable opinion of Mediacom, would make
the provision of any Service illegal or might, if Mediacom continued to perform this Agreement, subject Mediacom or any of its affiliates to any
penalty, liability or new or increased regulation, require that Mediacom or any of its affiliates make any of its networks or facilities available to
third parties, render the performance of this Agreement by Mediacom unprofitable or burdensome or subject Mediacom or any of its affiliates to
any other adverse consequence, Mediacom may require that this Agreement be renegotiated in good faith to ameliorate the adverse effects of such
change or decision to the extent reasonably possible or may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Customer given at any time after
such change or decision.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Mission
ClearGov is the leading provider of budgeting and planning solutions for local government agencies.
ClearGov’s mission is to create easy-to-use, modern software that helps local governments plan and
budget better. We believe that every local government should have the opportunity to leverage
technology to operate more efficiently and communicate more effectively. We pursue this mission by
carefully designing solutions that are clear, collaborative, compelling and cost-effective to fuel better
budgeting and drive community support.
Solutions Overview
Based on our conversations with Fairhope and our understanding of your key needs and objectives, we
are proposing the following ClearGov solutions:
ClearGov Digital Budget Book
● The easiest and fastest way to build an award-winning budget book
● Automatically generates a professionally formatted template that’s pre-populated with your
financials, capital request data, charts, and more
● Enables you and your team work collaboratively to fill in the details
● Built to GFOA guidelines, optimized to ADA standards and designed to be mobile-friendly
Investment
ClearGov offers solutions that are affordable for local governments of all shapes and sizes. A summary of
your investment in the ClearGov Solutions proposed herein includes:
Setup Service Fees (One time investment)
Setup Fee: Includes - Full activation and setup; Data
onboarding; Client training $3,600
Setup Discount: If signed by March 20, 2025 ($3,600)
Total Setup Service Fees $0
Annual Subscription Service Fees (Annual investment)
ClearGov Digital Budget Book $11,700
Total Annual Subscription Service Fees $11,700
Implementation Plan
You will be assigned an Implementation Manager (IM), who will develop a plan to get your team up
and running that is based on your specific goals and timeline. The ClearGov Onboarding Process will
have a big impact on your overall success with our platform, and as such, it is a team effort between you
and ClearGov that includes four key components:
General Ledger Data Mapping
● A ClearGov Sr. Data Advisor will format, upload and map your financial data (i.e. revenue and
expense data). Your role is to provide us with a complete set of data files as well as guidance on
ClearGov, Inc. | 855-553-2715 | www.cleargov.com Page 5 of 26
Page 438 of 481
how you would like to view the data, and to review and provide feedback along the way. This is
the most important onboarding step as it enables the full use of the budgeting applications.
Training
● Our products are designed to be intuitive and easy to use, but ClearGov provides a robust set of
self-directed training resources, as well as live custom workshops to share best practices and
help you get the most from our solutions.
Configuration
● Once trained, you can easily configure the ClearGov platform to meet your specific needs - for
example - by customizing capital request forms; creating wage schedules; selecting the panels
to include in your Transparency Center; etc.
Timeframe
● We have learned that different customers have different priorities, so the onboarding process
usually takes between 60 - 90 days. If you have a specific deadline, please let me or your
Implementation Manager know, and we’ll get back to you quickly to let you know if it’s possible,
as well as what needs to happen - by when - to achieve that deadline.
Conclusion
In the pages that follow, we’ll explain how and why ClearGov solutions not only offer the best value for
Fairhope, but also make your day-to-day operations more efficient, productive, and impactful.
As the leading provider of budgeting and planning solutions, ClearGov is committed to helping local
governments like yours “make democracy work better ”. And while that may sound lofty, “democracy” is
simply what you do every day. We just want to help you do it in a modern, data-driven way — a way
that makes your job easier, lightens your load, showcases all the good work that you do, and ultimately
helps you better serve your community.
ClearGov already works with hundreds of local governments, schools, counties and other agencies
across the country, and we’d be delighted to welcome Fairhope into the fold. If you have questions or
concerns as you review this proposal, please do not hesitate to reach out. Thank you for your
consideration.
BUDGET CYCLE MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW
We know that you’re working hard to make your local government run better, and you know that
technology can help you get it done. Unfortunately, most of the gov-tech software on the market right
now is designed for sprawling megacities or state and federal government — not local agencies like
yours. So, these platforms are often complicated, expensive, and loaded with bells and whistles that
you’ll never use. You don’t need a chainsaw to carve a turkey. You simply need the right tool for the job.
ClearGov, the leader in modern budgeting and planning solutions, is built from the ground up
specifically for local governments. It does everything you need it to do. It’s just-right software for
agencies that are looking to take that critical next step toward modernizing their budget process.
Therefore, all ClearGov solutions are:
CLEAR AND EASY TO USE
At ClearGov, everything we do is designed to make complex government data easy to
understand and easy to use, internally and by the public at large. We present data in
readily-understood infographic form, and offer an interface for our internal tools that’s
easy for every staff member to learn and use.
ClearGov, Inc. | 855-553-2715 | www.cleargov.com Page 6 of 26
Page 439 of 481
CLOUD-BASED
Web-based software requires no installation, no maintenance and is always up-to-date.
Plus, it gives local governments the ability to quickly adjust to evolving input and
changing dynamics. We host our software and our data with Amazon Web Services,
which ensures data security and world-class software performance.
CONNECTED
All ClearGov solutions share a common data set and work together seamlessly. Plus,
when you’re ready to implement, we do all the heavy lifting for you. To get started, all you
have to do is send us an Excel file with your financial data, and we’ll onboard it for you.
COLLABORATIVE
ClearGov solutions are designed to improve collaboration and efficiency by automating
processes and outcomes. Streamlining the collaborative process is vital to prevent key
items from falling through the cracks. Centralization and remote access to documents,
systems and processes is mission-critical.
COST EFFECTIVE
ClearGov is built and priced for local governments. Our packages are all-inclusive, so
you’ll never be charged extra for per-seat licenses, never be surprised with hidden fees,
and never pay for support or product updates...never.
Our goal is to delight our customers with unbeatable value in everything we do.
Build an Award-Winning Budget Book in a
Fraction of the Time
The annual budget book is your most
important, public-facing policy document. You
want it to be polished, professionally formatted,
and accessible to as many residents and
stakeholders as possible. And, ideally, you want
it to be easy and efficient to produce on your
end.
ClearGov Digital Budget Book is the industry’s
first website-based solution that automates
most of the budget book creation process
using templates and data-driven charts and
tables. Meet GFOA and ASBO award criteria
and deliver new levels of clarity, engagement
and understanding for your citizens.

ClearGov Digital Budget Book helps you produce an
interactive and engaging budget book in a fraction of the
time it takes today. Create a beautiful online document
with flexible pages that are easy to use, ADA-compliant,
and fully customizable — no developer or designer needed.
● Customizable pages: Save time with templated
pages or easily create your own. Customize each
page with text, charts, images, and more.
● Team collaboration: Invite unlimited team
members to easily add content to their assigned
sections to streamline collaboration and improve
efficiency.
● GFOA & ASBO Award checklists: A built-in checklist helps you create an award-winning book
easily for the GFOA Distinguished Budget Presentation Award or the ASBO Meritorious Budget
Award.
● Web, mobile & PDF versions: We provide the best of all worlds to present your budget book —
website, mobile, and PDF formats — to exceed public expectations for optimal viewing.
Auto-generated Charts, Graphs, and More
ClearGov automatically generates charts, graphs, financial
pages and more using your budget data — giving you a
profound head start in content creation.
● Page creation: Pages are pre-built with
easy-to-edit template panels — simply add
narrative to tell your story. Easily add financial
pages and more that are automatically created
using your budget data.
● Auto-generated graphs: Pages include
compelling, colorful graphs to complement the
data and to help visualize the numbers for each
section of your budget.
● Auto-translate: Built-in Google Translate functionality will automatically translate your budget
book narrative into Spanish, French, Portuguese or more than 100 other languages.

ClearGov, Inc. | 855-553-2715 | www.cleargov.com Page 9 of 26
Page 442 of 481
Automatic Data Updates
Revenue and expense data are automatically updated
throughout your Digital Budget Book as the numbers
change, eliminating errors and saving time - especially
valuable for those inevitable last-minute tweaks.
● Dynamic figures: Easily embed budget
numbers into your narrative and they’ll
automatically update whenever your budget
changes. No more searching through 300 pages
to find and replace outdated figures manually.
● Smart charts: Auto-generated charts and graphs
also update automatically, and they’re interactive
to help provide a complete picture of your budget.
● Integrated budget: Digital Budget Book syncs directly with ClearGov Operational Budgeting to
leverage your budget data, or you can easily edit budget versions and manage data for instant
updates.
Why does Fairhope need this?
● The short-cut you always wanted: One simple click generates a fully formatted framework
that’s automatically populated with your financial data, along with pre-built charts, tables and
graphs, and even some pre-written content. You simply fill in the blanks and customize the
content as you see fit.
● Improve accuracy: The more spreadsheets you manage and papers you shuffle, the greater the
margin of error. ClearGov’s digital-first approach is automated, templated, and paperless so you
can stop manually collecting, merging, and managing all that input from dozens of
department heads.
● You save time and aggravation: Recreating charts, tables, and graphs from spreadsheets every
time a figure changes is not only tedious, it’s inefficient. With ClearGov, every time you change a
number in your budget, all of the applicable charts, tables and graphs are updated
automatically.
● Print on demand: Printing a budget book is expensive and often out of date before the ink
dries. ClearGov enables you and your citizens to print specific sections or the entire budget
book whenever you like - which saves both time and money.
● GFOA kudos: ClearGov’s Digital Budget Book is structured to meet GFOA best practice
guidelines. In fact, there is a GFOA checklist built right in, so you can check off each
Distinguished Budget Award Presentation requirement as you complete it.

IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
Overview
The ClearGov onboarding process is designed to activate and set up your ClearGov solution. We have
designed the process to be as straightforward as possible. Yes - there are some things you’ll have to do,
but the effort is likely to be much less than other software implementations you have experienced in
the past. With your specific goals and budget timeline in mind, your Implementation Manager will
develop a plan and guide you through what needs to be done to get you and your team up and
running. The Implementation Manager will work with you and ClearGov’s internal experts to achieve
onboarding milestones.
Roles & Responsibilities
Effectively and efficiently completing the onboarding process requires a small group of people - from
both ClearGov and Fairhope - with specific roles and responsibilities, as follows. NOTE: For some
customers, one person may play multiple roles.
Fairhope Team
● Executive Sponsor: Champions the implementation and rollout of ClearGov inside Fairhope.
Removes roadblocks and acts as the escalation point if the onboarding process stalls.
● Primary Contact: Go-to person at Fairhope who is the main liaison with ClearGov’s
Implementation Manager. Responsible for scheduling meetings and ensuring the right people
from the organization attend.
● Data Exporter: The person responsible for exporting financial data from your ERP / Accounting
System and providing Account ID structure information.
● Data Reviewer: The person responsible for reviewing and approving data maps and how your
data displays within the ClearGov platform.
ClearGov Team
● Implementation Manager (IM): Overall Project Manager for onboarding. Responsible for
driving meetings as required and guiding you through the onboarding process. Ensures
alignment with what needs to be done and who needs to do it.
● Sr. Data Advisor: ClearGov’s full-service Data Advisor team is made up of former local
government finance officials, so they have been in your shoes. Your Sr. Data Advisor is
responsible for uploading and categorizing your financial data. They will work closely with the
Data Reviewer to complete data mapping.
ClearGov, Inc. | 855-553-2715 | www.cleargov.com Page 13 of 26
Page 446 of 481
● Training & Enablement Specialist: A ClearGov team member who is deeply familiar with
ClearGov products and has developed on-demand educational material available in ClearGov’s
Support Center. This person will lead training workshops as necessary for users.
● Client Success Manager (CSM): Your Client Success Manager is responsible for making sure
you achieve your objectives and have ongoing success using the ClearGov platform.
● ClearGov Support Team (support@cleargov.com): Everyone on this team understands how
ClearGov products work and can answer questions to help you complete a task. The ClearGov
Support team is available for technical assistance for all ClearGov customers.
● ClearGov Data Team (data@cleargov.com): The ClearGov Data Team is responsible for adding
new or updating existing data after the initial onboarding is complete. NOTE: Most members of
our Data Team are former financial officials as well.
Data Onboarding Timeline
We have successfully onboarded over a thousand customers, so we know that different organizations
have different objectives and deadlines. Some of our customers want/need to implement as quickly as
possible and make ClearGov their #1 priority. Other customers take a more relaxed approach and fit
ClearGov in among other projects. As a result, the onboarding process typically stretches across 60 - 90
days, which allows enough time for us to collaborate and complete the important tasks mentioned in
the next section.
Typical Onboarding Timeline
IMPORTANT - Meeting Your Deadline: We are happy to work at whatever pace fits your needs, and we
recognize that in certain circumstances, you may require an expedited onboarding process. If you have
a specific deadline in mind, please inform your Solutions Advisor or Implementation Manager as soon
as possible. We will do our best to meet your deadline (we don’t miss many of them), and we’ll let you
know exactly what we need from you - and when - in order to hit your objective.
Data Onboarding Phases & Tasks
The onboarding process has six phases, as outlined below. Some of these phases overlap and can occur
concurrently to reduce the duration of onboarding. Furthermore, once your product subscriptions are
activated you are able to use the product(s) immediately to complete various setup & configuration
tasks while your general ledger data is being uploaded and mapped.
ClearGov, Inc. | 855-553-2715 | www.cleargov.com Page 14 of 26
Page 447 of 481
Phase 1: Discover
The Discover phase is the initial period when you and ClearGov develop a shared understanding of your
goals, specific data requirements & structure, budget cycle timeline, and onboarding plan. Depending
upon schedules and availability, the Discover phase - in conjunction with the Prepare phase - usually
lasts 2 to 4 weeks, starting when you sign the ClearGov service order and your Solutions Advisor
connects you with your Implementation Manager.
The key objectives during the Discover phase include:
● Share Goals: During the Kickoff call, your Implementation Manager will review and verify the
goals you discussed with the Solutions Advisor during the sales process.
● Confirm Key Milestones & Dates: This information will be used as input to the onboarding
project plan and to ensure that everyone has common expectations.
● Define Launch Requirements: The Implementation Manager will guide you through exactly
what needs to be completed prior to launching ClearGov applications.

Phase 3: Map & Review
ClearGov offers a full-service data onboarding process that includes formatting, uploading, and
mapping your financial (i.e. general ledger revenue and expense) data. This is the most important step
of the onboarding process because that data is what enables the full use of our budgeting applications.
The Sr. Data Advisor will complete the onboarding work while relying on you to provide a complete set
of data files and your feedback along the way. We will need you to attend a few calls, review the
mapping and provide timely feedback. It is our goal to make sure your financial data is presented
through the ClearGov applications in the way you want.

Below is a summary of the key elements that can be configured by Fairhope for each applicable
ClearGov product. Product configuration is your opportunity to customize the ClearGov application to
your specific needs and preferences. We have done our best to make each process as intuitive as
possible, and we’ll be there to show you how, if you have questions.
Digital Budget Book
● Budget Book Design: Utilize the point-and-click Digital Budget Book Settings to configure the
look and feel of your budget book to meet your needs and preferences.
● Contributors: Assign specific budget book sections to contributors for collaboration and
editing.
Data Requirements
ClearGov’s Onboarding process is focused on getting your most complex data up and running on the
ClearGov platform. In a nutshell, this means your financial data (i.e. general ledger, assets, liabilities,
expenses, revenue, etc.) - both current and historical information. This data should be readily exportable
from any accounting/ERP system. We have partnered with some vendors to include an “Export to
ClearGov” button in their solutions and for some others we can provide detailed export instructions.
Your IM will let you know what is available based on the accounting/ERP system you use. Your IM will
also provide you with a more detailed document explaining data requirements. The highlights are
outlined below.

Data Onboarding Detail
Actual Revenues, Expenditures, Assets, Liabilities, Equities, and Cash
● The majority of clients sent us 4 to 6 years, however, there is no limit.
● By providing more years, trend charts will be more robust.
ClearGov, Inc. | 855-553-2715 | www.cleargov.com Page 18 of 26
Page 451 of 481
● Current FY budget data is used as the basis to create the next FY budget.
Budgeted Revenue & Expenditures
● Current and upcoming
● Past years to display budget-to-actuals (optional)
Check Level Detail (ClearGov Transparency Only, Optional)
● If you wish to use the Open Checkbook feature in ClearGov Transparency
● Your data must include check-level detail for the most recent fiscal year with as much historical
data as you prefer
Line Item Detail File(s)
● Line-item level revenue, expense, asset, equity, and liability data. Depending on which
accounting system you use, all years may be exported in one file or there may be a file created
for each year.
● Each line item should include full account number, account description, fund and dollar
amount. We will also need to know the associated fiscal year and if the line item is tied to
revenue or expense.
● Depending upon which accounting system you’re using, this is often referred to as the Trial
Balance Report; Account Inquiry Report; or Budget-to-Actual Report.
Account Number Key
● This is simply an explanation of your account number structure.
● An account number is made up of segments and for each segment we need to know its
purpose (i.e. whether it refers to a fund, a department, an object, etc.).
● Most accounting systems enable you to run a report to generate this information. It’s often
called a Segment Report or Chart of Accounts. If yours does not, just let us know. The ClearGov
data team has successfully uploaded data for hundreds of clients and will work with you to
determine the best options.
How much data should we provide?
In short, it depends on which product(s) you plan to use:
● Digital Budget Book: Should provide budgeted and actual data for any fiscal year that you
wish to present in your digital budget, typically 3-5 years.

TRAINING & SUPPORT
ClearGov solutions are designed to be intuitive and easy-to-use. With that said, ClearGov’s training
materials and support channels are designed to ensure that you and your team can successfully
launch, adopt and optimize the value you receive from the ClearGov platform. We will share how to
accomplish tasks, key insights and best practices.
Training
For starters, we have developed comprehensive courses that provide you with step-by-step instructions
on how to configure and use ClearGov. Your Implementation Manager (IM) will recommend and enroll
you and your team in ClearGov Academy courses to help meet your goals. Courses are broken down
into a variety of product-specific educational elements (e.g. videos, articles, quizzes) for easy
consumption.
ClearGov Workshops
In addition, instructor led training is available in workshop format. ClearGov Workshops are designed to
answer your specific questions about how to use ClearGov’s solutions to meet your specific needs.
Therefore, it is highly recommended that Workshop Attendees complete the ClearGov Academy
courses prior to attending a ClearGov Workshop. ClearGov will provide a remotely-delivered Workshop
for each product in your subscription. ClearGov Workshops may be attended by both Administrators/
Editors and Department Heads/Contributors. All Workshops are recorded for future reference and to
train new hires.
Support Center
All ClearGov users have access to a frequently updated online Support Center filled with hundreds of
how-to articles, video tutorials and information sheets. The ClearGov Support Center is easy to navigate
and has a robust search engine to quickly find help on a specific topic.
Client Success Manager
When the onboarding process is complete, the IM will introduce you to your Client Success Manager
(CSM). Your CSM is available by phone and email and will work with you to get the most out of
ClearGov’s platform. CSMs are generally available 9:00AM to 5:00PM, Monday through Friday (excluding
holidays). Your CSM will inform you of their specific availability. Our CSMs are committed to responding
to all inquiries within one business day, and in most cases, you will receive a same-day response.
ClearGov, Inc. | 855-553-2715 | www.cleargov.com Page 20 of 26
Page 453 of 481
ClearGov Support & Data Team
For questions on how to use ClearGov or to report a technical issue, you will be able to reach a Support
Specialist via support@cleargov.com during business hours (Monday through Friday, 8:00AM to 8:00PM
Eastern). Our Support Team is committed to responding to all inquiries within one business day, and in
most cases, you will receive a same-day response.
For data updates, you can update your own statistics through our financials application or you can
submit a request to our data team via this request form. Our standard lead time to complete an update
is five business days. However, if you need an update completed sooner to meet a deadline, just let us
know. Straightforward uploads or changes often are completed within one or two business days.
Product Enhancement Requests
We absolutely love hearing from our Customers - especially when they have ideas that would make our
products better. In fact, we meet weekly to go over all the feedback we’ve received to provide key input
to our product roadmap. Many of the applications and features in ClearGov’s solution are the direct
result of client feedback. When you have a request for a product enhancement, please submit your
idea(s) to support@cleargov.com or inform your CSM and they will bring it up at our weekly meeting.
We prioritize product enhancements primarily based on the number of clients who are requesting
similar functionality, so we can’t guarantee that your ideas will go to the top of the list, but we promise
that we’ll always listen, and we work hard to make 100% of our customers happy.

TECHNICAL & SECURITY OVERVIEW
ClearGov Hosting Platform
The ClearGov platform is hosted by Amazon Web Services (AWS), the world leader in cloud computing
as a service. Used by the Departments of Justice, Defense, and Homeland Security, AWS is one of only
three vendors that have been granted government authorization to store highly sensitive federal data
on its cloud-computing servers.
AWS handles systems, network architecture, and security, enabling ClearGov to focus on what it does
best — developing world-class solutions for local governments. With ISO 27001 and FISMA-certified
data centers, AWS has made platform security its highest priority in order to protect customers’ critical
information and applications. Another key advantage of hosting on the AWS cloud is that it allows
ClearGov to easily scale and innovate, while maintaining all security protections across the entire
infrastructure.
How secure is ClearGov ?
Hosting with AWS ensures that ClearGov maintains the highest security standards in the world:
● Web application firewalls control access to the underlying code
● AWS has built technologies to protect against distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks to
ensure network availability and application uptime.
● AWS’s SQL Server RDS uses server-side encryption to protect sensitive data.
In addition to AWS’s secure hosting environment, ClearGov has implemented a number of extra
software security features:
● Secure Socket Layer (SSL): SSL establishes an encrypted link between AWS servers and the
web browser to ensure that all data transfers remain private and integral.
● SQL Injection Protection: ClearGov has built protection against SQL injection attacks where
hackers attempt to insert nefarious server requests into web forms.
● Access Rights: ClearGov has implemented strict permission settings based on roles, which limit
access to specific data and application functions. This ensures that internal users are restricted
from accessing sensitive data based on privileges assigned by your administrator.
● Password Authentication: ClearGov does not store passwords explicitly, but rather “hashes”
(encrypts) them so they are not compromised.
● Single Sign On (SSO): ClearGov offers Single Sign On capabilities as an optional authentication
method. The system is integrated with a leading authentication aggregator which provides
integration with the majority of authentication providers.
● Logging and Monitoring: ClearGov employs monitoring features that quickly identify
vulnerabilities and provide immediate alerts if action is required.
Where are ClearGov data centers located?
AWS replicates the ClearGov application and data across multiple geographically dispersed data
centers to ensure redundancy and availability.
What sort of disaster recovery plan is in place?
One of the reasons we selected AWS is because they provide state-of-the-art disaster recovery. ClearGov
databases are duplicated in real-time across multiple AWS servers, and the entire ClearGov platform is
backed up daily across the AWS network. So, even in the event of a catastrophic system failure, 24 hours
of data loss would be the maximum impact.
ClearGov, Inc. | 855-553-2715 | www.cleargov.com Page 22 of 26
Page 455 of 481
Is the ClearGov platform designed to scale to meet demand bursts?
Yes. One of the key factors behind selecting AWS as our hosting provider is their ability to scale rapidly.
AWS has automated solutions in place that automatically scale ClearGov’s platform for normal peaks
and valleys in demand, and can be rapidly (and remotely) scaled to meet sustained demand increases.
Does ClearGov leverage AWS Virtual Private Cloud features?
Yes. ClearGov utilizes the AWS Virtual Private Cloud functionality so that our platform is hosted on a
logically isolated section of the AWS Cloud and not commingled with any third-party applications.
How do I learn more about ClearGov’s hosting solution?
You can learn more about AWS data centers and security measures via the following link:
● https://aws.amazon.com/security/?hp=tile
Security FAQs
How is client data stored within the ClearGov platform?
All client data is stored in a single data repository with proper authentication and access control built
into the system to ensure that users may only access the data applicable to their organization.
Is the ClearGov platform SOC 2 compliant?
Our hosting provider, AWS, is fully compliant with SOC 2 requirements, and ClearGov can provide a
copy of the most recent AWS SOC 2 compliance/audit report upon request.
How often is the ClearGov platform reviewed for adherence to security standards
and how actively is the ClearGov platform monitored?
ClearGov performs quarterly security reviews to ensure that processes are being followed and standards
are being met. The ClearGov platform is monitored continuously - 24 x 7 - for performance, security and
auditing.
Does ClearGov Support SSO?
ClearGov is integrated with a leading authentication aggregator which provides integration with the
majority of authentication providers such as OpenID Connect and SAM. Examples of SSO providers
using these protocols include Microsoft Azure, OneLogin, and Okta.
Service Level FAQs
What level of service availability does ClearGov support?
All ClearGov solutions are available on a 24/7 basis, and ClearGov is committed to 99.9% uptime. As a
cloud-based solution product patches and upgrades are completed in real-time, without impact to
system performance. On occasion, as necessary, larger upgrades that may require planned system
downtime are announced in advance and completed over the weekend and/or after working hours.
What is your standard practice for security patch management?
ClearGov conducts ongoing audits of third-party packages for vulnerabilities. Patches for critical
vulnerabilities are released as soon as possible, otherwise, patches are released as part of regular
bi-weekly software releases.
How often does ClearGov schedule planned outages for system upgrades?
The ClearGov platform and applications are architected so that the system does not require downtime
during regular maintenance, product upgrades, or emergency patches. On occasion, as necessary,
larger upgrades that may require planned system downtime are announced in advance and completed
over the weekend and/or after working hours.

FAQs
General Questions
Q: Do we need to dedicate resources for ClearGov implementation?
● A: Ideally, we would like to have one point person on your end with whom we can coordinate
logistics. We generally require no more than a few hours of that person’s time for the entire
setup/onboarding process. Typically, that same person is responsible for delivering regular data
updates (usually quarterly) , which requires only a few minutes of their time once per quarter.
(See Project Management section for more details.)
Q: Does ClearGov provide training?
● A: The ClearGov platform is designed to be simple and intuitive. With that said, ClearGov will
provide whatever training you and your team need during the kick-off process. And, the
ClearGov team is available for unlimited support and/or training on an ongoing basis. ClearGov
also provides video tutorials, online help, and other support materials as well. (See Training and
Support section for more details.)
Q: How much effort is required to import our data?
● A: During implementation, your Sr. Data Advisor will upload your financial data.
Post-implementation you have two choices when it comes to updating your financial data. You
may update your actuals as often as you like using our financials application or you can submit
a request to our data update team.
Q: Can ClearGov help us communicate our finances internally ?
● A: Absolutely. ClearGov is a powerful tool for not only communicating with residents, but also
internal stakeholders. ClearGov can act as a central reporting platform that offers clear and
easy-to-understand infographics that can be used for presentations and reports both internally
and externally.
Q: How will ClearGov store our data? Is it secure?
● A: ClearGov utilizes a full suite of solutions from Amazon Web Services (AWS) to host and deliver
the data for the ClearGov platform. We specifically selected AWS as our solutions provider
because the AWS infrastructure puts strong safeguards in place to help secure and protect
customer data. All data is stored in highly secure AWS data centers, and you can learn more
about AWS security measures via the following link: https://aws.amazon.com/security/?hp=tile.
See Security Overview section above for more details.
Q. Are there any accounting systems that are not compatible with ClearGov ?
● A: The short answer is "No" — we work with everybody. We're not actually doing a direct
integration with your accounting system; we just need a simple report, and every accounting
system we've ever met can easily produce that report. We've worked with enough of them now
that we can probably tell you which report to print, and if it's a new one, we'll help you figure out
which report is right.
Q: Does ClearGov provide a real-time integration with any eFinance or ERP
systems?
● A: The short answer is…No...and this is by design. ClearGov takes a different approach when it
comes to integrating your data onto our platform. In short...we do the work for you. You simply
send us a report from your accounting system whenever you like, and we’ll upload it - and there
is never any additional charge for this.
ClearGov, Inc. | 855-553-2715 | www.cleargov.com Page 24 of 26
Page 457 of 481
● The reason we take this approach is that system integrations sound like a good idea on paper,
but in reality...they are painful, expensive and extremely difficult to maintain. The key problem is
that every time the software changes on either end of the integration, the connection breaks
and requires significant effort to re-integrate. In fact, that’s how our competitors make a lot of
their money, because they charge professional service fees every time you ask them to
re-establish the integration. Bottom line, the extra costs of supporting and maintaining a
real-time integrated solution far outweigh the minimal incremental benefits of real-time data
transfer.
Q: Does the ClearGov platform support single sign-on functionality ?
● A: Yes. ClearGov supports single sign-on functionality using Microsoft Azure Active Directory. We
are happy to support other single sign-on platforms/APIs as well. Please just let us know what
you need.
Digital Budget Book Questions
Q: Since the product is template-driven, won’t every ClearGov Digital Budget
Book look the same?
● A: No. While every ClearGov Digital Budget Book starts with the same core template, it’s highly
and easily customizable, so the final product will always be different. You can add your own
images, chart colors, and endless content to make it your own.
Q: Can you guarantee that we will win a GFOA award?
● A: As we have designed and built the ClearGov Digital Budget Book, we have double-checked
the GFOA guidelines every step of the way. We have also actively reviewed the solution with
GFOA reviewers and members of the GFOA staff. With that said, we cannot guarantee that you
will win an award, in part, because the narrative content is still up to you. In other words, all of
the core components are included, but you still need to fill in the blanks in a way that meets
with GFOA approval.
Q: I understand the benefits of digital, but I still need to produce a printed
version. How will that work?
● A: You’re not alone. Old habits die hard and paper is still a must-have for many local
governments. In addition to presenting your budget book online, the ClearGov Digital Budget
Book Suite includes functionality that enables users to create a .PDF, which can then be printed
to generate a hard-copy of your budget book. Also, the Print-to-PDF functionality enables you
to print specific sections of your budget book and/or the entire book.
