Reviewed Alert Service Levels
Summary
Under the terms and conditions of the ShotSpotter Services Agreement between ShotSpotter, Inc.

ShotSpotter ShotSpotter commits to meet or exceed the following Service Level Agreement (SLA) standards as it provides its ShotSpotter Gunshot Location Services1:

Service SLA and Measurement
Gunshot Detection
& Location
90% of unsuppressed, outdoor gunfire incidents, using standard, commercially available rounds greater than .25 caliber, inside the Coverage Area will be detected and located within 25 meters of the actual gunshot location.

Reviewed Alerts 90% of gunshot incidents will be reviewed and published in less than 60 seconds.

Service Availability The ShotSpotter Gunshot Location System service will be available to the Customer 99.9% of the time with online access to ShotSpotter data, excluding scheduled maintenance windows.

Gunshot Detection & Location Performance
ShotSpotter will detect and accurately locate to within 25 meters of the actual gunshot location 90% of unsuppressed, outdoor gunshots fired inside the contracted coverage area using standard, commercially available rounds greater than .25 caliber.

Reviewed Alerts Service
The ShotSpotter real-time Incident Review Center (IRC) will review at least 90% of all gunfire incidents within 60 seconds. This human review is intended to confirm or change the machine classification of the incident type, and, depending
dispatch center, patrol car mobile data
terminals (MDT), and officer smartphones (via the ShotSpotter App), based on the following criteria:

Incident Type Action
High confidence incident is gunfire
dispatch center, patrol car mobile data terminals
(MDT), and officer smartphones (via the
ShotSpotter Respond App)
Uncertain if incident is gunfire or not Reviewed Probable dispatch center, patrol car MDTs, and
officer smartphones
Low confidence incident is gunfire No alert will be sent; incident available for Customer review in the incident history available
through Insight

1 See attached
and further details in the expanded definitions listed below the Summary. The basis for this SLA and performance measurement will be total gunshot incidents as defined by the Definition of Key Terms.

RESPOND SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT Page 2 of 4

Reviewed Alerts are sent to the Cdispatch center, patrol car MDTs, and officer smartphones.

Information in a Reviewed Alert will include the following:
on the with latitude and longitude indicating the location of the incident.

Parcel address closest to location of the incident.

When available, additional situational awareness data points may be included, such as:
o Qualitative data on the type/severity of incident: Fully automatic, High Capacity o Other comments (if any)
The ShotSpotter Respond App, and Insight provide the Customer with full and immediate access to incident history including information ShotSpotter uses in its internal review process. This information includes, among other things, the initial incident classification and any reclassifications of an incident, incident audio wave forms, and incident audio files. This data access is available as long as the Customer is under active subscription.

Service Availability
The ShotSpotter Respond System2 will be able to detect gunfire and available to users with online access to ShotSpotter data 99.9% of the time, on a 24x7 by 365 day per year basis, excluding: a) scheduled maintenance periods which will be announced to Customer in advance; b) select holidays; and c) third party network outages beyond ShotSpotter
Customer SLA Credits
Each Service Level measurement shall be determined quarterly, the results of which will be reviewed during the periodic account review meetings with Customer. For each calendar quarter that ShotSpotter does not meet at least two of the three above standards, a fee reduction representing one free week of service (for the affected Coverage Area) for each missed quarter shall be included during a future Customer renewal.

Service Level Exclusions and Modifications
ShotSpotter takes commercially reasonable efforts to maintain Service Levels at all times. However, Service Level performance during New Eve and Independence Day and the 48-hour periods before and after these holidays, are specifically excluded from Service Level standards. During these excluded periods, because of the large amount of fireworks activity, ShotSpotter uses fireworks suppression techniques3.

The ShotSpotter sensors send incident information to the ShotSpotter cloud via third party cellular, wireless or wired networks. ShotSpotter is not responsible for outages on the third-party networks.

2 Respond service includes all database, applications, and communications services hosted by ShotSpotter, Inc. at rd party communications
networks, e.g. Verizon, AT&T, Sprint/T-Mobile,
3 ShotSpotter will put the ShotSpotter system into "fireworks suppression mode" during this period in order to reduce the non-gunfire incidents required for human classification. ShotSpotter will formally inform the customer prior to the system being placed in fireworks suppression mode and when the mode is disabled. While in fireworks suppression mode, the incident alerts determined to be fireworks are not sent to the reviewer nor the Customer dispatch center, patrol car MDTs, and officer smartphones; however, these non-gunfire incidents will continue to be stored in the database for use if required at a later time.

Service Failure Notification
Should ShotSpotter identify any condition (disruption, degradation or failure of network, cloud, servers, sensors etc.) that impacts ShotSpotter ability to meet the Gunshot Detection & Location standard (above), ShotSpotter will proactively notify the Customer with: a) a brief explanation of the condition; b) how the service is affected; and c) the approximate timeframe for resolution. ShotSpotter will also notify the Customer once any such condition is resolved.

Customer Responsibilities
The purpose of the Reviewed Alert service is to provide incident data to the Customer, reviewed, analyzed and classified in the manner described above. However, it is the sole responsibility of the Customer to interpret the data provided, and to determine any appropriate follow-up reaction or response, including whether or not to dispatch emergency responder resources based on a Reviewed Alert. ShotSpotter does not assume any obligation, duty or responsibility for reaction, response, or dispatch decisions, which are solely and exclusively the responsibility of Customer, or for the consequences or outcomes of any decisions made or not made by the Customer in reliance, in whole or in part, on any services provided by ShotSpotter.

Customer must inform ShotSpotter when Verified Incidents of gunfire are missed by the ShotSpotter Respond System in order to properly calculate Performance Rate, as defined below.

Customer is responsible for providing any required workstations, mobile devices and internet access for the , or Insight.

ShotSpotter Definition of Key Terms
The ShotSpotter Respond System will provide data for correct detection and accurate location for ninety percent (90%) of detectable (outdoor, unsuppressed) community gunfire which occurs within a coverage area, the provided the measurement is Statistically Significant, as defined below. This performance rate shall be calculated as a percentage as follows:

where the Performance is a number expressed as a percentage, is the number of occurring within the Coverage Area during the specified period for which the ShotSpotter Respond System produced an Accurate Location, NumberMislocated is the number of Verified Incidents (a is an incident where Customer has physical or other credible evidence that gunfire took place) for which the ShotSpotter Respond System produced an inaccurate location (i.e., a Mislocated Incident), and NumberNotDetected is the number of Verified Incidents for which the ShotSpotter Respond System failed to report a location at all (i.e., Missed Incidents).

An shall mean an incident located by the ShotSpotter Respond System to a latitude/longitude coordinate that lies within a 25-meter radius of the confirmed shooters location (25 meters = approximately 82 feet). incidents are unsuppressed discharges of ballistic firearms which occur fully outdoors in free space (i.e. not in doorways, vestibules, windows, vehicles, etc.) using standard commercially available rounds of caliber greater than .25.

ShotSpotter Review Period is measured as the period commencing when the Incident Review Center (IRC) receives the alert and the first audio download to the time it is published to the customer.

ShotSpotter Respond System performance is guaranteed after a set of incidents has been detected in accordance with timeframes set forth herein and following DQV and commercial system acceptance. The ShotSpotter Respond System is designed to detect gunfire which is typically well distributed throughout the Coverage Area; however, performance should not be construed to mean that 90% of gunfire fired at any given location within the Coverage Area will be detected and located within the guaranteed accuracy.

The ShotSpotter Respond System is not a system and is therefore not designed to consistently detect gunfire at every single location within the Coverage Area, but rather to Accurately Locate 90% of the Detectable Incidents in aggregate throughout the entire Coverage Area. There may be certain locations within the Coverage Area where obstacles and ambient noise impede and/or overshadow the propagation of acoustic energy such that locating the origin at those positions is inconsistent or impossible.

The Performance Rate calculation is thus specifically tied to the Community Gunfire across the entire Coverage Area.

Statistically Significant shall be defined as measurements and calculations which shall be performed as follows: (a) Across an entire Coverage Area; (b) Aggregating over a period of at least 30 days under weather conditions seasonally normal for the area; and (c) Provided that the total number of gunfire incidents being counted is equal to or greater than: (i) thirty (30) incidents for systems of up to three (3) square miles of Coverage Area, or (ii) ten (10) incidents multiplied by the number of square miles of Coverage Area for systems where one or more Coverage Areas are three (3) square miles or larger.
