AMED INSURED: POLICY NUMBER:
The following are mandatory forms on the policy identified on the Certificate of Insurance:
391-1586 (08-16) BUSINESSOWNERS GENERAL LIABILITY SUPPLEMENTARY ENDORSEMENT Additional Insured by Contract, Agreement or Permit
A. Section II – Liabil
ity, C – Who is an insured is amended to include as an additional insured any person or organization with whom you agreed in a written contract, written agreement or permit but only respect to liability for “bodily injury”, “property damage” or “pe
rsonal and advertising injury” caused, in whole or in part, by your acts or omissions; or the acts or omissions of those acting on your be
half, but only with respect to:
(i) “Your w
ork” for the additional insured(s) designated in the contract, agreement or permit including "bodily injury" or "prope
rty damage" included in the "products - completed operations hazard" only if this Coverage Part provides su
ch coverage;
(ii)
Premises you own, rent, lease, or occupy; or
(iii) Your maintenance, operation or use of equipment leased to you. *Definition: “Your w ork” a. Means: (1) Work or operations performed by you or on behalf; and (2) materials, parts or equipment furnished in
connection with such work or operations; b. Includes (1) warranties or representations made at any time with respe
ct to the fitness, quality, durability, performance or use of “your work”; and (2) the providing of or failure to provide warnings or instructions.

This
exclusion applies even if the claims against any insured a llege negligence or other wrongdoing in the supervision, hiring, employment, training or monitoring of others by that insured, if the "o ccurrence" which caused the " bodily injury" or "property damage" or the offense which caused the "personal and advertising injury" involved t he rendering of or failure to render any professional services by or for you.
Other Insurance Primary & Non-Contributory
The following paragraph is added to SECTION III – COMMON POLICY CONDITIONS, H – Other Insurance: Additional Insured – Primar
y and Non-Contributory. If you agree in a written contract, written agreement or permit that the insurance provided to any person o
r organization included as an Additional Insured under SECTION II – Liability, C. Who is an Insured is primary and non-contributory, the following applies: If other valid and collectible insurance is available to the Additional Insured for a loss covered un
der SECTION II – LIABILITY of this Coverage Part, our obligations are limited as follows:
(1) Primar
y Insurance: This insurance is primary to other insurance that is available to the Additional Insured whic h covers the Additiona
l Insured as a Named Insured. We will not s eek contribution from any other insurance available to the Additional Insured except: (a) For the sole negligence of the Additional Insured; (b) When the Additional Insured is an Additional Insured under another primary liability policy; or (c) When b. below applies. If this insurance is primar y, our obligation
s are not affected unless any of the other insurance is also primary. (2) Excess Insu

his insurance is excess over any of the other insurance, whether primary, excess, contingent or on any other basis:

No coverage is provided by this Notice, nor can it be construed to replace any provisions of the policy (including its endorsements). If there is any conflict between this Notice and the policy (including the endorsements), the provisions of the policy (including its endorsements) shall prevail. (iii) That is insurance purchased by the Additional Insured to cover the Additional Insured's liability as a tenant for "property damage" to premises rented to the Additional Insured or temporarily occupied by the Additional with permission of the owner; or
(iv) If the loss arises out of the maintenance or use of aircraft, "autos" or watercraft to the extent not subject to Exclusion g. of SECTION II - LIABILITY. B. Exclusions, 1. Applicable to Business Liability Coverage. (v) That is insurance available to you for your participation in any past or present "unnamed joint venture". (vi) That is any insurance you may have that provides coverage for your professional services. (b) When this insurance is excess, we will have no duty to defend the insured against any "suit" if any other insurer has a duty to defend the insured against that "suit". If no other insurer defends, we will undertake to do so, but we will be entitled to the insured's rights against all those other insurers. (c) When this insurance is excess over other Insurance, we will pay only our share of the amount of the loss, if any, that exceeds the sum of:
(i) The total amount that all such other insurance would pay for the loss in the absence of this insurance; and (ii) The total of all deductible and self-insured amounts under all that other insurance.
We will share the remaining loss, if any, with any other insurance that is not described in this Excess Insurance provision and was not bought specifically to apply in excess of the Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations of this Coverage part.
(3) Method Of Sharing
If all of the other insurance permits contribution by equal shares, we will follow this method also. Under this approach, each insurer contributes equal amounts until it has paid its applicable limit of insurance or none of the loss remains, whichever comes first. If any of the other insurance does not permit contribution by equal shares, we will contribute by limits. Under this method, each insurer's share is based on the ratio of its applicable limit of insurance to the total applicable limits of insurance of all insurers.
Per Project Aggregate
The following changes are made to SECTION II - LIABILITY:
1. The following is added to SECTION II - LIABILITY, D. Liability and Medical Expenses Limits of Insurance, paragraph 4:

As if each Named Insured were the only Named Insured; and, b. Separately to each insured against whom claim is made or “suit” is brought.
Waiver Of Subrogation
The TRANSFER OF RIGHTS OF RECOVERY AGAINST OTHERS TO US Condition (Section IV – COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY CONDITIONS) is amended by the addition of the following:
We waive any right of recovery we may have against the person or organization where required by written contract because of payments we make for injury or damage arising out of your ongoing operations or “your work” done under a contract with that person or organization and included in the “products-completed operations hazard”. This waiver applies only to the person or organization where required by written contract.

FUNDS TRANSFER REQUEST
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to approve a resolution authorizing:
1. The reallocate budget to CIP 9987 (Fire Station Alerting Systems) in the amount of $202,464 from CIP 9541 (Fire Station Repairs) and $133,744 from CIP 9984 (Fire Training Tower).

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Salinas Fire Department relies on fire station alerting systems to ensure immediate, clear, and reliable notification of emergency incidents. The current station alerting infrastructure is outdated, lacks redundancy, and d oes not meet current operational or safety standards. Approval of this purchase will modernize alerting capabilities across fire stations 2 through 6, reduce response delays, and enhance operational reliability using funds already approved in the Capital Improvement Program.
The Fire Station Alerting Systems project is a priority public safety initiative and requires additional funding to be completed. Approval of the accompanying resolution will authorize the transfer of available Capital Improvement Pro gram funds to fully fund the project and proceed with procurement.
BACKGROUND:
Fire station alerting systems are critical infrastructure that support timely emergency response. The Salinas Fire Department’s existing alerting systems are aging and no long er provide the level of reliability and backup needed for modern emergency operations. This increases the risk of missed 276

or delayed alerts, particularly during overnight hours or in high -noise station environments. The Salinas Fire Department received a quote from US Digital Designs in the amount of $417,336.99.
The proposed system provides clear, immediate alerts with battery backup and built-in safeguards to ensure continued operation during power or network interruptions. Standardizing alerting systems across multiple fire stations improves consistency and main tains efficiency. Modern features, including visual message displays, room -level alerts, and Flex Alert devices, enhance situational awareness for on -duty personnel. Replacing outdated equipment re duces the risk of system failure during critical emergency responses.

All Orders are subject to acceptance by Honeywell and shall include the following information: purchase order number; customer’s legal name and billing address; Customer’s shipping address; and a list of the Products and quantities for each different type of Product Customer wishes to order. Honeywell’s acknowledgment of its receipt of an Order shall not constitute acceptance of such Order.
1.1 No Returns. Because of the nature of System and its Products, Honeywell cannot accept returns of Product for refund, credit, exchange or any other purpose. Notwithstanding, defective Products may be returned as provided for under Section 9.4 – Return Material Authorization Process. Customer must thoroughly assess its requirements and specifications prior to ordering.
2. REMITTANCES. All invoices shall be due and payable upon receipt in United States currency, free of exchange or any other charges, or as otherwise agreed in writing by Honeywell.
3. QUOTE PRICING. This proposal expires 30 days after its date. Prices are subject to correction for error. Prices, terms, conditions, and Product or Service specifications are subject to change without notice. Pricing is subject to immediate change upon announcement of Product discontinuance.
4. PAYMENT.
4.1. Invoicing & Payment. Honeywell reserves the right to invoice Customer monthly for all materials delivered. Invoices are due thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice, unless prepayment is required in the quote. If the Customer becomes overdue in any progress payment, Honeywell shall be entitled to suspend further shipments, shall be entitled to interest at the annual rate of 18%, or the maximum amount allowed by law, and shall also be entitled to avail itself of any other legal or equitable remedies. Customer agrees that it will pay and/or reimburse Honeywell for any and all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs which are incurred by Honeywell in the collection of amounts due and payable hereunder.
4.2. Payment Disputes. Any disputes must be provided to Honeywell as soon as possible and must be accompanied by detailed supporting information. Disputes as to invoices are deemed waived fifteen (15) days following the invoice date. In the event that any portion of an invoice is undisputed, such undisputed amount must be paid by no later than the invoice due date.
4.3. No Set Off. Neither Customer nor any related entities (or representatives or agents thereof) shall attempt to set off or recoup any invoiced amounts or any portion thereof against other amounts that are due or may become due from Honeywell, its parent, affiliates, subsidiaries or other legal entities, business divisions, or units.
4.4. Credit Card Payments. All Honeywell quotes are developed for the Customer with the understanding that any purchase of the Products listed thereon will facilitated using to Honeywell’s standard Purchase Order and Invoice process. If Customer would rather seek to use a Credit Card for purchase, then said order would be subject to a 4% credit card surcharge.
5. SURCHARGES.
5.1. For avoidance of doubt, Orders placed prior to the Terms and Conditions Effective Date which have not been delivered, including those on backlog or which requested delivery more than twelve (12) months from the date of Order, are subject to Surcharges.
5.2. Honeywell will invoice Customer, and Buyer agrees to pay for any Surcharges pursuant to the standard payment terms in these Terms and Conditions. If a dispute arises with respect to Surcharges and that dispute remains open for more than fifteen (15) days, Honeywell may, in its sole discretion, withhold performance or future shipments, or combine any other rights and remedies under this Agreement or permitted by law, until the dispute is resolved. The terms of this Section shall prevail in the event of inconsistency with any other terms in these Terms and Conditions. Any Surcharges, as well as the timing, effectiveness, and method of determination thereof, will be separate from and in addition to any changes to pricing that are affected by any other provisions in these Terms and Conditions.
6. CANCELLATION AND SUSPENSION. Any Order resulting from this proposal is subject to cancellation or instructions to suspend work by the Customer only upon agreement to pay Honeywell for all work in progress, all inventoried or ordered project parts and materials, and all other costs incurred by Honeywell related to the Order.
7. TAXES. Honeywell’s pricing excludes all taxes (including but not limited to sales, use, excise, value-added, and other similar taxes), tariffs and duties (including, but not limited to, amounts imposed upon the Product(s) or bill of material thereof under any Trade Act, including, but not limited to, the Trade Expansion Act, section 232 and the Trade Act of 1974, section 301) and charges (collectively “Taxes”). All Taxes of any kind levied by any federal, state, municipal or other governmental authority, which tax Honeywell is required to collect or pay with respect to the production, sale, or delivery of products sold to Customer, shall be the responsibility of and be invoiced to Customer, unless, at the time of Order placement, Customer furnishes Honeywell with a valid exemption certificate or other documentation sufficient to verify exemption from Taxes, including, but not limited to, a direct pay permit. Customer agrees to pay all such Taxes and further agrees to reimburse Honeywell for any such payments made by Honeywell.
8. SHIPPING/DELIVERY/RISK OF LOSS.
PROPRIETARY and CONFIDENTIAL STANDARD Ts&Cs Page 15 of 28 295
8.1. Delivery Liability. Delivery and shipment dates for Products are estimates only. Deliveries may be made in partial shipments. Honeywell and its affiliated entities are not liable, either directly or indirectly, for delays of carriers or delays in connection with any Force Majeure Event (as defined in Section 17 below), and the estimated delivery date shall be extended accordingly.
8.2. Future Delivery and Repricing. Honeywell will schedule delivery in accordance with its standard lead times unless the Order states a later delivery date or the parties otherwise agree in writing. Honeywell will accept Orders with a future ship date of up to eighteen (18) months from the date of the entry of the Order. Customer agrees that in the event an Order is scheduled to be delivered more than six (6) months from the date of the entry of the Order, Honeywell may, in its sole determination and at each six (6) month anniversary of the date of the entry of the Order, adjust the pricing of the Order to conform to the then-current prices of the Honeywell Products included in the Order.
Honeywell will include any repricing in its final invoice related to the Order.
8.3. Storage Fees. If delivery takes place more than six (6) months from the date of the entry of the Order, Customer agrees to pay Honeywell a storage fee (the “Storage Fee”), as set forth in the quote, for each month after six (6) months from the date of the entry of the Order Customer has not taken delivery of the Products in the Order. Honeywell will separately invoice any storage fees owed under this Section at the end of each month for which the storage fees are owed.
8.4. Title & Risk of Loss. Unless otherwise specifically detailed in this quote, delivery terms for Products (excluding software and services) are (i) EX Works (EXW Incoterms 2020) Honeywell’s point of shipment (“Honeywell Dock”) for all shipments (except that Honeywell is responsible for obtaining any export license), and (ii) F.O.B. Honeywell Dock for all domestic shipments. For shipments from a Honeywell Dock to a Buyer location within the same country, the import/export provisions of the INCOTERMS do not apply. Honeywell shall be responsible for obtaining insurance on each shipment to Customer for the full value of the shipment. Shipment shall be to a single point of delivery.
9. LIMITED WARRANTY. CUSTOMER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES AND HONEYWELL’S SOLE LIABILITY AS TO ANY WARRANTY CLAIM ON ANY PRODUCT SOLD IN CONNECTION WITH THIS QUOTE IS AS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION. SUCH REMEDIES ARE IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER
LIABILITY OR OBLIGATION OF HONEYWELL, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY LIABILITY OR OBLIGATION FOR DAMAGE, LOSS,
OR INJURY (WHETHER DIRECT, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL) ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE DELIVERY, USE, OR PERFORMANCE OF THE PRODUCTS. CREDIT, REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT (AT HONEYWELL’S OPTION) IS THE SOLE REMEDY PROVIDED HEREUNDER. NO EXTENSION OF THIS WARRANTY WILL BE BINDING UPON HONEYWELL UNLESS SET FORTH IN WRITING AND SIGNED BY A HONEYWELL AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE.
9.1. Product Warranty Terms. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations contained herein, and unless Honeywell has otherwise provided an alternative written warranty (in which case the terms of such warranty will control), Honeywell warrants and guarantees its products will be free from defects in workmanship and materials (collectively, “Defects”) for 12 months from Customer’s the “Go Live Date” (“Warranty Period”). This limited warranty does not cover defects caused by normal wear and tear or maintenance. For purposes of subparagraph, “Go- Live Date” shall mean means the date on which an authorized Honeywell technician has inspected and approved installations, confirmed that all connections and start-up configurations are properly working, and confirming the System can send and receive alerts through the configured communication pathways.
9.2. Product Defects. If a Defect with a Product arises and a valid claim is made within the Warranty Period, Customer shall initiate the RMA process as described below. Upon approval, Honeywell at its option, will either (1) repair the Product defect at no charge, using new parts or parts equivalent to new in performance and reliability or (2) exchange the Product with a Product that is new or equivalent to new in performance and reliability and is at least functionally equivalent to the original Product. Any replacement Product or part, including a user- installable part that has been installed in accordance with instructions provided by Honeywell, shall remain under warranty during the Warranty Period or for ninety (90) days from the date of repair, whichever is longer. When a Product or part is exchanged, any replacement item becomes the Customer’s property and the replaced item becomes the property of Honeywell. Parts provided by Honeywell in fulfillment of its warranty obligation must be used in the same Honeywell Fire Station Alerting System for which the warranty claim is made.
9.3. Procedure for Warranty Claims.
9.3.1. Prior to making a Warranty claim, Customer is encouraged to review Honeywell’s online help resources. Thereafter, to make a valid claim hereunder, Customer must contact Honeywell technical support and describe the problem or defect with specificity. The first such contact must occur during the Warranty Period. Honeywell’s technical support contact information can be found on Honeywell’s web site at https://buildings.honeywell.com/us/en/brands/our-brands/usdd. Customer must use its best efforts to assist in diagnosing defects, follow Honeywell’s technical instructions, and fully cooperate in the diagnostic process. Failure to do so shall relieve Honeywell of any further obligation hereunder.
9.3.2. If a defect with the Hardware arises and Customer makes a valid Support Service Request within the Warranty Period, Customer shall initiate the RMA process as described below. Upon approval, Honeywell will cause shipment of a replacement Hardware component to Customer prior to the defective Hardware component being returned to Honeywell for repair. The replacement Hardware will be new or equivalent to new in performance and reliability and at least functionally equivalent to the original Hardware. When Hardware is exchanged, any replacement item becomes the Customer’s property and the replaced item becomes the property of Honeywell. Replaced Hardware provided by Honeywell in fulfillment of the Support Services must be used in the System to which this Agreement applies.
PROPRIETARY and CONFIDENTIAL STANDARD Ts&Cs Page 16 of 28 296
9.4. Return Material Authorization Process. If a Customer makes a claim for an advanced replacement of a Hardware component during the Warranty Period, Customer must initiate an RMA request. As part of this RMA process, the Customer shall provide Honeywell with the Hardware, model, serial number, and a description of the Hardware’s failure to initiate the RMA process. Upon Honeywell’s issuance of the RMA, Honeywell will send the replacement Hardware, shipped postage paid, ground shipping, to the address provided by Customer. RMA requests approved between 12:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time are shipped on the same business day. After 2:00 p.m.
Mountain Standard Time, the replacement Hardware will be shipped on the next business day. All RMA requests are processed on the business day on which the request was received, excluding holidays. Included with the shipped package will be return shipment instructions and a pre-paid return shipping label for the Hardware that the Customer is returning. The original Hardware must be returned in the shipping box provided by Honeywell. No goods will be accepted for exchange or return without a pre-approved RMA number, nor will goods which have not been properly packaged in Honeywell’s shipping box, as proper packaging ensures that goods are not damaged during the shipping process. The original Hardware must be shipped back within 10 days of receiving the replacement Hardware. Failure to return the original Hardware or failure to return the original Hardware in an appropriate manner will cause Customer to incur a replacement charge equal to full market value of the replacement Hardware.
9.5. No Fault Found. Customer understands that this fee is intended to discourage return of Products prior to proper troubleshooting or return because the product is “old.” Product returns will not be allowed if, upon examination of the returned Product, it is determined that the Product was subjected to accident, misuse, neglect, alteration, improper installation, unauthorized repair, improper testing, or poor packaging upon return. In such event, Honeywell shall invoice Customer for the full market value of the replacement Product.
9.6. WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS & DISCLAIMERS.
9.6.1. Honeywell does not warrant that the operation of its Products or any related peripherals will be uninterrupted or error-free. Honeywell further does not warrant nor support any system configuration that deviates from this specific quote’s documented station system design file number.
9.6.2. Honeywell does not warrant or support any system not installed by G2 Trained & Certified Installation technician (installer). If Customer intends to tie this system into any 3rd-party system or devices, Honeywell will be unable to warrant or support the Products unless Honeywell has had a chance to review documented engineering assumptions and approve system integrity, performance, and reliability expectations.
9.6.3. Honeywell is not responsible for damage arising from Customer’s failure to follow instructions relating to the use of the Products.
This Warranty does not apply to any Products, including the hardware or software, not used for its intended purpose.
9.6.4. Honeywell cannot warrant nor support any system not using Honeywell-approved Uninterruptable Power Supply Battery Backup.
This Warranty does not apply to monitors or televisions manufactured by third parties. Repair or replacement of such components shall be subject exclusively to the manufacturer’s warranty, if any. Recovery and reinstallation of hardware and user data (including passwords) are not covered under this Warranty.
9.6.5. This Warranty does not apply: (a) to consumable parts, such as batteries, unless damage has occurred due to a defect in materials or workmanship; (b) to cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches, dents and broken plastic on ports; (c) to damage caused by use with non-Honeywell products; (d) to damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, flood, lightning, fire, earthquake or other external causes; (e) to damage caused by operating the Product outside the permitted or intended uses described by Honeywell; (f) to damage or failure caused by installation or service (including upgrades and expansions) performed by anyone who is not a representative of Honeywell or a Honeywell authorized installer or service provider; (g) to a Product or part that has been modified to alter functionality or capability without the written permission of Honeywell; (h) to Software (as defined below); (i) to any other damage caused by an event or action outside of Honeywell’s control, including, without limitation, Customer’s failure to apply required or recommended updates or patches to any Software or Product; or (h) if any serial number has been removed or defaced.
10. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE LIMITED WARRANTY IN SECTION 9 OF THESE TERMS AND
CONDITIONS AND ANY OTHER REMEDIES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, REMEDIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, STATUTORY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. AS PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,

PROPRIETARY and CONFIDENTIAL STANDARD Ts&Cs Page 17 of 28 297
12. SOFTWARE PRODUCTS. All software Products delivered by Honeywell to Customer or for which Honeywell provides access, including, without limitation, Honeywell’s mobile application software and Products with embedded software or firmware (collectively, “Software”) are not sold and are licensed. At all times that Customer is in compliance with the terms of these Terms and Conditions and any other agreement between the parties, Customer shall have a non-exclusive, non-transferable, fully paid license to use the Software, but only in conjunction with the Products provided by Honeywell and Customer’s fire station alerting system (the “License”). The terms of such Software License may be set forth in a separate software license agreement or end user license agreement provided by Honeywell with such Software. In no event shall Customer have any right to (or authorize or allow any third party to) distribute, sell, lend, rent, transfer, or convey the Software; grant any sublicense, lease, or other rights in the Software; decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to reconstruct, identify, or discover any source code, underlying user interface architecture or techniques, or algorithms of the Software by any means; or take any action that would cause the Software or any portion of it to be placed in the public domain. In the event of a conflict between the terms of any Software license terms provided upon download or purchase a purchase and these Terms and Conditions, the relevant Software license terms shall control solely with respect to such Software.
13. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY: Customer hereby agrees and acknowledges that Honeywell owns all rights, title, and interest in and to the Intellectual Property (as defined below). Customer agrees to not remove, obscure, or alter Honeywell’s or any third party's copyright notice, trademarks, or other proprietary rights notices affixed to or contained within or accessed in conjunction with or through Honeywell’s Product (as defined below). Nothing herein shall be deemed to give, transfer, or convey to Customer any rights in the Intellectual Property other than the License, as set forth above. For purposes of this Section, "Intellectual Property" means any and all rights of Honeywell related to Honeywell’s Products existing from time to time under patent law, copyright law, trade secret law, trademark law, unfair competition law, and any and all other proprietary rights, and any and all derivative works, work product, applications, renewals, extensions and restorations thereof, now or hereafter in force and effective worldwide.
14. FIRST ARRIVING MOBILE APP. If Customer wishes to use its First Arriving Mobile App (“First Arriving”) with the System being acquired from Honeywell, Customer agrees to the following:
14.1 Customer acknowledges that it bears full responsibility for complying with applicable law and regulations, including all privacy requirements, and for providing any required notices and obtaining all required consents in order for Honeywell to transmit alert to First Arriving. Customer also acknowledges that Honeywell bears no responsibility for any service failure by First Arriving, nor is Honeywell responsible for supporting First Arriving’s services or platform. Honeywell is offering to transmit alerts that are transmitted through its Honeywell service to First Arriving merely as a courtesy to Customer.
14.2 IN NO EVENT SHALL HONEYWELL BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER FOR ANY CLAIMS, WHETHER ARISING FROM ANY INDEMNIFICATION
OBLIGATION HONEYWELL MAY HAVE OR THAT ARISE FROM A BREACH OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE),
OPERATION OF LAW, OR OTHERWISE, AND EVEN IF THE PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THE LIABILITY OR THE
LIABILITY IS OTHEWISE FORESEEABLE, FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OR REVENUE, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDEIRECT, CONSEQUETIAL,
EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING ALL DAMAGES DUE TO BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA, OR LOST USE OF ANY PROPERTY OR CAPITAL) THAT RELATE TO OR ARISE OUT OF HONEYWELL’S TRANSMISSION OF ALERTS TO FIRST ARRIVING. FURTHER HONEYWELL’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH ITS
TRANSMISSION OF ALERTS TO FIRST ARRIVING WILL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT PAID BY CUSTOMER TO HONEYWELL IN ORDER FOR HONEYWELL TO TRANSMIT ALERTS TO FIRST ARRIVING OR $100. 15 REMOTE ACCESS TO THE SYSTEM.
15.1 Remote Access. Honeywell requires remote network access to the Customer’s Products through Secure Shell (SSH) to perform implementation and support tasks under this Agreement. To enable remote network access, the Customer will provide Honeywell support personnel VPN or similar remote network access to the Products for Honeywell support personnel (“Customer Support”) to effectively troubleshoot critical or complex problems and to expedite resolution of such issues. Remote network access is also used to install core software upgrades and customized software. Honeywell will only access Customer’s Products with the knowledge and consent of Customer. Honeywell will not access any other systems or data.
15.2. Alternative to Network Access. If the Customer elects not to provide remote network access to the Products, then Honeywell may not be able to perform some support functions. Customers that elect not to routinely provide network access may temporarily reinstate this access to allow Honeywell to perform the above services. The following services will not be performed without this access: Product software upgrades; Product software customization; Network troubleshooting assistance including packet capture and network monitoring on Honeywell devices; Detailed log analysis; Bulk updates to certain Product database tables; Troubleshooting that requires low-level system access or large file transfer.
15.3. Timely Access. Customers much ensure that remote access is available prior to notifying Honeywell of a support request. In the event that the Customer is unable to provide remote access, Honeywell will not be required to provide support outside those tasks that do not require remote access, and any corresponding resolution response times will not apply.
15.4. Physical Security Tokens. Honeywell has multiple software engineers that provide after-hours support and these engineers do not typically take security tokens from the Honeywell office. If the customer requires the use of physical security tokens, this may delay after hours service.
16. GOVERNING LAW. This proposal and any contract or agreement resulting therefrom will be governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of Arizona without regard to its conflicts of law principles.
17. DISPUTE RESOLUTION/ARBITRATION. Before either Honeywell or Customer initiate any dispute resolution process related to the Agreement, they must schedule an executive resolution conference to be held within thirty (30) days of receipt of the other party’s written request. The conference must be attended by at least one executive from each party. At the conference, each party will present its view of the dispute in detail and the executives will enter into good faith negotiations in an attempt to resolve the dispute. If the dispute is not resolved within fifteen (15) days of the end of the conference or if one party refuses to attend the executive resolution conference, then Honeywell and Customer further agree that any remaining dispute between them arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be settled by litigation with jurisdiction being Maricopa County, Arizona.
PROPRIETARY and CONFIDENTIAL STANDARD Ts&Cs Page 18 of 28 298
18. FORCE MAJEURE. Except for Customer’s duty to pay sums due hereunder, neither party will be liable to the other for any failure to meet its obligations due to any Force Majeure Event. As used herein, a “Force Majeure Event” is one that is beyond the reasonable control of the non-performing party and may include, but is not limited to: (a) delays or refusals to grant an export license or the suspension or revocation thereof, (b) embargoes, blockages, seizure or freeze of assets, or any other acts of any government that would limit a party’s ability to perform the Contract, (c) fires, earthquakes, floods, tropical storms, hurricanes, tornadoes, severe weather conditions, or any other acts of God, (d) quarantines, pandemics, or regional medical crises, (e) labor strikes, lockouts, or pandemic worker shortages, (f) riots, strife, insurrection, civil disobedience, landowner disturbances, armed conflict, terrorism or war, declared or not (or impending threat of any of the foregoing, if such threat might reasonably be expected to cause injury to people or property), and (g) shortages or inability to obtain materials or components. The party unable to fulfill its obligations due to Force Majeure will promptly (i) Notify the other in writing of the reasons for its failure to fulfill its obligations and the effect of such failure; and (ii) Use all reasonable efforts to avoid or remove the cause and perform its obligations.

21. WAIVER. The failure of either party to insist upon strict performance of any provision of these Terms and Conditions, or to exercise any right provided for herein, shall not be deemed to be a waiver for the future of such provision or right, and no waiver of any provision or right shall affect the right of the waiving party to enforce any provision or right herein.
22. NO JOINT VENTURE. The parties acknowledge that they are independent entities and nothing contained in these Terms and Conditions shall be construed to constitute either party hereto as the partner, joint venturer, employee, agent, servant, franchisee, or other representative of the other party hereto, and neither party has the right to bind or obligate the other, except as otherwise provided herein.
Furthermore, nothing contained in these Terms and Conditions shall be construed to constitute Customer as an exclusive purchaser of the Products in any respect.

10. LIMITED WARRANTY. CUSTOMER'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES AND HONEYWELL'S SOLE LIABILITY AS TO ANY WARRANTY CLAIM ON FLEX ALERT IS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION. SUCH REMEDIES ARE
IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER LIABILITY OR OBLIGATION OF HONEYWELL, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION ANY LIABILITY OR OBLIGATION FOR DAMAGE, LOSS, OR INJURY (WHETHER DIRECT,
INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL) ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE DELIVERY, USE, OR PERFORMANCE OF FLEX ALDERT. CREDIT,
REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT (AT HONEYWELL'S OPTION) IS THE SOLE REMEDY PROVIDED HEREUNDER. NO EXTENSION OF THIS WARRANTY WILL BE BINDING UPON USDD UNLESS SET FORTH IN WRITING AND SIGNED BY A HONEYWELL AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE. a.
Warranty Terms. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations contained herein, and unless Honeywell has otherwise provided an alternative written warranty (in which case the terms of such warranty will control), USDD warrants and guarantees its products will be free from defects in workmanship and materials (collectively, "Defects") for 12 months from the date of shipment to Customer ("Warranty Period"). This limited warranty does not cover defects caused by normal wear and tear or maintenance.
PROPRIETARY and CONFIDENTIAL FLEX ALERT Ts&Cs Page 23 of 28 303 b.
Defects. If a Defect with Flex Alert Module arises and a valid claim is made within the Warranty Period, Customer shall initiate the RMA process as described below. Upon approval, Honeywell, at its option, will either (1) repair the Flex Alert Module defect at no charge, using new parts or parts equivalent to new in performance and reliability or (2) exchange the Flex Alert Module with a Flex Alert Module that is new or equivalent to new in performance and reliability and is at least functionally equivalent to the original Flex Alert Module. Any replacement Module, including a user-installable part that has been installed in accordance with instructions provided by Honeywell shall remain under warranty during the Warranty Period or for ninety (90) days from the date of repair, whichever is longer. When a Flex Alert Module or part is exchanged, any replacement item becomes the Customer's property and the replaced item becomes the property of Honeywell. c.
Claims. Prior to making a Warranty claim or requesting support services, Customer is encouraged to review Honeywell's online help resources. Thereafter, to make a valid claim hereunder, Customer must contact Honeywell technical support and describe the problem or defect with specificity. The first such contact must occur during the Warranty Period. Honeywell's technical support contact information can be found on Honeywell's web site at http://stationalerting.com/service-support/. Customer must use its best efforts to assist in diagnosing defects, follow Honeywell's technical instructions, and fully cooperate in the diagnostic process.
Failure to do so shall relieve Honeywell of any further obligation hereunder. d.
Return Material Authorization Process. If a Customer makes a claim for an advanced replacement of Flex Alert Module during the Warranty Period, Customer must initiate an RMA request. As part of this RMA process, the Customer shall provide Honeywell with the Module’s serial number, and a description of the Module’s failure to initiate the RMA process. Upon Honeywell’s issuance of the RMA, Honeywell will send the replacement Flex Alert Module, shipped postage paid, ground shipping, to the address provided by Customer. RMA requests approved between 12:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time are shipped on the same business day. After 2:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time, the replacement Hardware will be shipped on the next business day. All RMA requests are processed on the business day on which the request was received, excluding holidays. Included with the shipped package will be return shipment instructions and a pre-paid return shipping label for the Flex Alert Device that the Customer is returning. The original Flex Alert Device must be returned in the shipping box provided by Honeywell. No goods will be accepted for exchange or return without a pre-approved RMA number, nor will goods which have not been properly packaged in Honeywell’s shipping box, as proper packaging ensures that goods are not damaged during the shipping process. The original Flex Alert Device must be shipped back within 10 days of receiving the replacement Device. Failure to return the original Module or failure to return the original Module in an appropriate manner will cause Customer to incur a replacement charge equal to full market value of the replacement Module.
e.
Honeywell reserves the right to charge 50% of the standard repair price if the returned Flex Alert Module is found to have no defect under the Warranty. Customer understands that this fee is intended to discourage return of Modules prior to proper troubleshooting or because the Module is "old." Flex Alert Module returns will not be allowed if, upon examination of the returned Module, it is determined that the Module was subjected to accident, misuse, neglect, alteration, improper installation, unauthorized repair, or improper testing. In such event, Honeywell shall invoice Customer for the full market value of the replacement Flex Alert Module.
11. Use of Flex Alert / Risk of Loss. Customer shall operate Flex Alert according to Honeywell's specifications and documented instructions. Customer agrees not make changes or alterations to the Flex Alert module(s) subject to this Agreement without the prior written consent of Honeywell. Customer assumes risks and liabilities directly related to loss, theft, damage, or destruction to the Flex Alert module. No loss, theft, damage, or destruction of the Flex Alert module shall relieve Customer of the obligation to pay the Subscription Fee or any other obligation under this Agreement. In the event the Flex Alert module is lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed, Honeywell shall replace the lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed Equipment. Customer agrees to pay Honeywell's list price for the replacement Equipment then in effect at the time of the replacement.
PROPRIETARY and CONFIDENTIAL FLEX ALERT Ts&Cs Page 24 of 28 304
12. Limitations to Support Services. Honeywell does not warrant that the operation of the Flex Alert will be uninterrupted or error-free. Honeywell's Support does not create any additional warranties, nor does it apply to any equipment, hardware, or peripherals not included in the Quote. Specifically, Support expressly excludes: (1) any repair, software installation, update, or other service that is necessitated by the Customer's misuse or neglect of the Flex Alert Module; (2) damage arising from Customer's failure to follow instructions relating to Flex Alert's use or damage caused by operating Flex Alert outside the permitted or intended uses described by USDD; (3) cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches, dents and broken plastic on ports, consumable parts, such as batteries, unless damage has occurred due to a defect in materials or workmanship; (4) alterations or repairs to the Flex Alert Module made by any person other than an authorized USDD representative; (5) damage or failure caused by installation or service (including upgrades and expansions) performed by anyone who is not a representative of Honeywell or service provider otherwise authorized by USDD; (6) failure of environmental controls or improper environmental conditions; (7) modification to alter functionality or capability without the written permission of Honeywell; (8) any damage caused by fire, flood, vandalism, terrorism, riot, storm, lightning, or other acts of nature or civil unrest. Honeywell shall not be liable to provide Support at any time when Customer is in breach of any obligation to USDD under this Agreement.

LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND WARRANTIES AGAINST HIDDEN OR LATENT DEFECTS.

ANY FAILURE TO MAINTAIN THE CONFIDENTIALITY OF DATA STORED ON USDD'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE LESSER OF THE AGGREGATE AMOUNTS PAID BY CUSTOMER TO HONEYWELL UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. CUSTOMER SHALL NOT BRING A LEGAL OR

18. Dispute Resolution/Arbitration. Before the Parties initiate any dispute resolution process related to this Agreement, other than for injunctive relief, the Parties must schedule a mandatory executive resolution conference to be held within thirty (30) days of receipt of the other Party's written request. The conference must be attended by at least one executive from each Party. At the conference, each Party will present its view of the dispute in detail and the executives will enter into good faith negotiations in an attempt to resolve the dispute. If the dispute is not resolved within fifteen (15) days of the end of the conference or if one Party refuses to attend the executive resolution conference, then the Parties further agree that any remaining dispute between them arising out of or relating to this Agreement, other than claims related to Honeywell's Intellectual Property rights (or those of any of its licensors, affiliates and partners), will be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, to the extent such rules are no inconsistent with this Section, in the AAA's regional Phoenix office and by single arbitrator. Discovery may be conducted either upon mutual consent of the Parties, or by order of the arbitrator upon good cause being shown. In ruling on motions pertaining to discovery, the arbitrator shall consider that the purpose of arbitration is to provide for the efficient and inexpensive resolution of disputes, and the arbitrator shall limit discovery whenever appropriate to ensure that this purpose is preserved. The arbitrator shall permit dispositive motions and issue a written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions and may award damages. Any award rendered by the arbitrator will be final and binding upon the Parties, and judgment may be entered upon it in accordance with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The Parties hereto expressly and irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the Maricopa County Superior Court of Arizona for such purpose. In the event a dispute is submitted to arbitration pursuant to this Section, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to the payment of its reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, including expert witness fees and costs, as determined by the arbitrator.

Phoenix G2 - Station Alerting System – Sole Source Manufacturer Statement To Wh
om it may Concern:
Th
e City of Salinas and its Fire Department (“City”) are dispatched by the Monterey County Emergency Communications Center (“County”). County has adopted the Phoenix G2 Fire Station Alerting System (the “System”) to provide fast, reliable and concise fire and medical emergency alerts to the fire and emergency services dispatched by County including City. This benefits the City and its residents by providing cost effect and efficient public safety services.
Ho
neywell International Inc., through its US Digital Designs group, is the sole manufacturer of the Phoenix G2 Fire Station Alerting system. All design, manufacturing, service and support originates from our Tempe, Arizona location. No other company can provide a compatible system capable of being implemented in parallel with the City’s current system. Moreover, as the manufacturer, Honeywell is able to offer the lowest factory-direct pricing to the City. No distributor of the Phoenix G2 System is able to provide pricing at a lower price. In addition, with the exception of certified installation companies authorized to perform “installation only” services, no other organization or entity is able or authorized to service and/or support our station alerting systems.

Consultant shall furnish the City with original certificates and amendatory endorsements or copies of the applicable insurance language effecting coverage required by this Agreement.

Consultant shall require and verify that all sub-consultants and/or subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements stated herein, and Consultant shall ensure that Entity is an additional insured on insurance required from such sub-consultants and/or subcontractors.
Special Risks or Circumstances
City reserves the right to modify these requirements, including limits, based on the nature of the risk, prior experience, insurer, coverage, or other special circumstances.

Other Insurance Primary & Non-Contributory
The following paragraph is added to SECTION III – COMMON POLICY CONDITIONS, H – Other Insurance: Additional Insured – Primar
y and Non-Contributory. If you agree in a written contract, written agreement or permit that the insurance provided to any person o

der SECTION II – LIABILITY of this Coverage Part, our obligations are limited as follows:

No coverage is provided by this Notice, nor can it be construed to replace any provisions of the policy (including its endorsements). If there is any conflict between this Notice and the policy (including the endorsements), the provisions of the policy (including its endorsements) shall prevail. (iii) That is insurance purchased by the Additional Insured to cover the Additional Insured's liability as a tenant for "property damage" to premises rented to the Additional Insured or temporarily occupied by the Additional with permission of the owner; or
(iv) If the loss arises out of the maintenance or use of aircraft, "autos" or watercraft to the extent not subject to Exclusion g. of SECTION II - LIABILITY. B. Exclusions, 1. Applicable to Business Liability Coverage. (v) That is insurance available to you for your participation in any past or present "unnamed joint venture". (vi) That is any insurance you may have that provides coverage for your professional services. (b) When this insurance is excess, we will have no duty to defend the insured against any "suit" if any other insurer has a duty to defend the insured against that "suit". If no other insurer defends, we will undertake to do so, but we will be entitled to the insured's rights against all those other insurers. (c) When this insurance is excess over other Insurance, we will pay only our share of the amount of the loss, if any, that exceeds the sum of:
(i) The total amount that all such other insurance would pay for the loss in the absence of this insurance; and (ii) The total of all deductible and self-insured amounts under all that other insurance.
We will share the remaining loss, if any, with any other insurance that is not described in this Excess Insurance provision and was not bought specifically to apply in excess of the Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations of this Coverage part.
(3) Method Of Sharing
If all of the other insurance permits contribution by equal shares, we will follow this method also. Under this approach, each insurer contributes equal amounts until it has paid its applicable limit of insurance or none of the loss remains, whichever comes first. If any of the other insurance does not permit contribution by equal shares, we will contribute by limits. Under this method, each insurer's share is based on the ratio of its applicable limit of insurance to the total applicable limits of insurance of all insurers.

As if each Named Insured were the only Named Insured; and, b. Separately to each insured against whom claim is made or “suit” is brought.
