Section 2 Personnel, Documentation, and
Reporting

2.1 Maintenance Roles and Responsibilities
The roles related to O&M of the primary project systems are defined as follows:
x Facility Owner – The Facility Owner is the party who is ultimately responsible for the functionality of all systems.
x Responsible Party – The Responsible Party is the party that shall have direct responsibility for the O&M of the project systems. This party shall be the designated contact with inspectors and lead maintenance personnel. The Responsible Party shall sign self-inspection reports and any correspondence regarding the verification of inspections and required maintenance. The Responsible Party will establish a system to delegate general inquiries to the appropriate maintenance personnel concerning the operation and maintenance of the systems. x Designated Emergency Respondent – The Designated Emergency Respondent is the party responsible for directing activities and communications during emergencies such as broken irrigation pipes, landslides, hazardous spill responses etc., that would require immediate response should they occur during off-hours. It is the responsibility of the Designated Emergency Respondent to communicate the emergent situation with the Responsible Party as soon as possible. x Key Maintenance Personnel – Key Maintenance Personnel are the designated lead field manager(s) or supervisor(s) who directly oversee and delegate the maintenance activities, maintain the scheduling, and coordinate activities between all personnel. These tend to change more often than other personnel over time, so their names do not necessarily need to be included in the O&M Plan.

However, they must be properly trained as recorded in the training logs (Section 2.2).

The table below lists the roles for this project. This table must be updated whenever changes occur.

documenting baseline
performance conditions of the
MF and RO system (e.g., MF
transmembrane pressure, MF
and RO temperature-corrected
specific flux, RO pressures,
temperature, flow rates, and
water recovery) via operating
parameter data collection and
data processing, and water
quality analyses for potential
scalants and foulants;
- Bi-weekly (once every two
weeks) operating performance
data collection and analysis for
at least one year; and
- Quarterly (or semi-annual)
water quality analyses of the
MF feed water and RO
permeate for at least one year
to observe trends in feed water
quality and quantify RO
rejection of key constituents.

Pre-Filter Replacement: Typically, every
6-9 months to protect RO membranes.

RO Membrane Replacement: Typically,
every 2-3 years.

RO Clean-In-Place (CIP) System
CIPs are used to control scaling and
fouling caused by particulate matter,
precipitation of inorganic salts, and
biological matter adhering to the
membrane surface. A CIP is an involved
process that consists of soaking and
recirculating a heated high pH solution
and low pH solution through the RO
membranes for an extended period of time.

Flushing: The RO flush system is
designed to hold sufficient permeate to
flush all RO trains during shutdowns. A
flush tank stores enough permeate to flush
all RO trains including an additional
20% to account for piping.

Chemical System: The two chemicals
dosed within the MF/RO process are
sodium hypochlorite and antiscalant.

Sodium hypochlorite is dosed into the
ammonia rich feed water to provide a
continuous monochloramine
concentration at the MF feed.

Monochloramine is used within the
process to control fouling of the MF and
RO systems. Antiscalant is used to
mitigate scaling on the RO membranes.

3.2 Emergency Response Plan
In some cases, adverse conditions may occur which could be an imminent threat to human or environmental health or severe damage to infrastructure or property. For example, a spill of hazardous substances in the drainage area of the Poche Beach Water Reclamation Project could cause harmful substances to enter the water capture system and affect environmental and public 40 of 47

health. In the event of an actual or suspected hazardous material release, the following plan shall take effect.

The primary importance of initial response to an actual or suspected spill will be public safety, control of the source of pollution, and containment of spills that have occurred, as applicable. The table below provides the emergency contact information for hazardous materials spills affecting BMPs.

Name Phone When to Report
Local Emergency Response (Fire Department) 911 Immediately Orange County 24-Hour Water Pollution
Problem Reporting Hotline
1-877-897-7455 Immediately
CalOES State Warning Center 1-800-852-7550 Immediately
The first number to call is emergency response (9-1-1), followed by the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (CalOES), formerly the California Emergency Management Agency (CalEMA). (CalOES) maintains guidance and instructions of what to do in the event of a spill of hazardous substances (http://www.caloes.ca.gov/cal-oes-divisions/fire-rescue/hazardousmaterials/spill-release-reporting). This plan is based on the guidance provided by CalOES (CalOES, 2014).

1. If an actual or suspected hazardous material incident exists, maintenance personnel will immediately call 911 and the CalOES State Warning Center.

2. The Designated Emergency Respondent and Responsible Party assigned to the facility (from Section 2.1) must also be notified of any actual or potential spill.

3. Remediation of contamination in the water quality facility should be handled as a corrective maintenance issue per Section 3.2 of this O&M plan.

In the event that a potential spill is identified prior to it reaching the diversion system, the Designated Emergency Respondent will implement an isolation protocol to prevent the spill from entering the diversion system. An inflatable plug, Hazmat Plug, or equivalent device as approved by the Designated Emergency Respondent will be installed within the storm drains or catch basins to block upstream flow from reaching and contaminating the diversion system. The temporary plug will be an interim measure until the spill is properly maintained and remediated and the Designated Emergency Respondent has determined the risk to the diversion system of contamination no longer exists.

Similar measures should be taken in the event of a landslide, mudslide, or major erosion within the drainage area of the Poche Beach Water Reclamation Project to prevent sediment from damaging the BMP to the extent possible.

3.3 Vector Control
In addition to the inspection and maintenance activities listed in Section 3, all the diversion systems shall be inspected for standing water on a regular basis. Standing water which exists for longer than 72 hours may contribute to mosquito breeding areas. Standing water may indicate that the diversion system is not functioning properly and proper action to remedy the situation shall be taken in a timely manner. The Orange County Vector Control District may be contacted for more information and support at 714-971-2421 or 949-654-2421 or www.ocvcd.org. 42 of 47

CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH MILLIMAN, INC. FOR DEFINED BENEFIT SERVICES ..body
Fiscal Impact:

The annual contract cost will not exceed $35,200 and remains unchanged from previous years.

Summary:

Before the City Council is the approval of an amendment to the professional services agreement with Milliman Inc. for Defined Benefit Administration extending the term of the agreement for one (1) year.

Background:

The City maintains a legacy retirement plan for employees who were not transitioned over to the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) in 2014. This includes employees who retired or separated prior to the CalPERS transition as well as active and inactive Coastal Animal Services Authority (CASA) employees. The City awarded a contract to Milliman, Inc. for Defined Benefit Administration in 2017 with a term through September 30, 2024 to oversee these retirement plans.

As part of the 2019 Long Term Financial Plan, new fiscal policies were implemented to improve funding levels of pensions plans and certain actions were taken including the submission of a formal application to transfer active CASA employees in the City of San Clemente Employee Retirement Plan (CSCERP) to CalPERS. With the anticipated timing of this transition in July 2024, staff’s recommendation is to extend Milliman, Inc. services to ensure adequate and smooth operations after the transition. In compliance with Purchasing Policy 201-2-3 the extension is exempt from the selection process due to the consultant’s unique familiarity with the project.

However, after the transition is complete and a new operational structure is in place, a request for proposal will be issued in 2025 based on the revised operations and lower participant requirements. As in previous years, the cost for the Defined Benefit Administration will not exceed $35,200 per the terms of the agreement and is paid for from the retirement plan. Staff is recommending a one (1) year extension of the agreement to expire on September 30, 2025.

Council Options:
 Adopt Resolution 24-99, which will approve and authorize the City Manager to execute the third amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Milliman, Inc. 1729

CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING A ONE-YEAR EXTENSION TO THE SCRIDES

AGREEMENTS WITH LYFT AND BUTTERFLI AND FINDING THE PROJECT STATUTORILY EXEMPT FROM ..body THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT
Fiscal Impact:

These Agreement Amendments will require program costs in the amount of $415,000, which is included in the approved Fiscal Year 2024/25 adopted budget. Please note, Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) awarded funds to the City to provide up to 90% of the cost of this program with a local City match of 10%.

Summary:

Before the City Council are two a one-year contract extensions to the agreements with Lyft and Butterfli for the continuation of the SCRides Program through June 30, 2025. These contracts are set to expire on June 30, 2024 unless extended.

Background:

In 2016, the City Council approved an agreement with Lyft to implement a pilot on-demand transportation service titled “SCRides,” designed to help mitigate the loss of former local bus routes 191 and 193 which were cancelled by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA). Under OCTA’s Project V grant program, OCTA awarded funds to the City to provide up to 90% of the cost of this program. With City Council approval, staff applied for a second grant to continue the program. OCTA approved a funding extension of the grant term through June 30, 2025.

The City also executed an agreement with Butterfli to provide a companion service capable of providing on-demand rides for SCRides users requiring special assistance (e.g., wheelchairs, canes, walkers) that could not be accommodated by typical Lyft contracted drivers. The Butterfli agreement is 100% funded by OCTA.

The SCRides program allows riders discounted rides within a 0.25-mile radius of the original 191 and 193 bus routes. Riders save up to $9 on rides, and pay as low as $2 a ride. The SCRides program has an average of 3,500 riders a month.

In order to continue the SCRides program without any interruptions until the next Project V funding cycle begins in FY 2025, staff recommends that the City Council approve amendments to the agreement (Third Amendments, Attachments 1 and 5) with both Lyft and Butterfli for a oneyear contract extension through June 30, 2025. 1735
Meeting Date: June 18, 2024 Agenda Item: 11J.

CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE 2
According to OCTA, a new procurement will be required when the new Project V grant goes into effect in FY2025. Therefore, after the proposed one-year extensions, staff will issue a Request for Proposals under the new Project V grant that will take into effect in FY 2025-2026 and return to the City Council in the future for a contract award for that period and beyond.

Council Options:
 Adopt Resolution No. 24-100, authorizing the City Manager to execute contract amendments with Lyft and Butterfli for one-year extensions for the continuation of the SCRides Program through June 30, 2025 and determining that the project is statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
 Modify and Adopt Resolution No. 24-100.
 Continue the Item and direct staff to provide additional information. Note: Both the Butterfli and Lyft contracts conclude June 30, 2024 and the City’s SCRides Program would not be able to operate without contracts.
 Do not adopt Resolution No. 24-100 and discontinue the SCRides Program.

Environmental Review/Analysis:

The project statutorily exempt from CEQA under Public Resources Code section 21080(b)(10) because it is a project for the institution or increase of passenger or commuter services on rightsof-way already in use.

Recommended Actions:

Staff Recommendation ..recommendation
Staff Recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 24-100, which will:

1. Find the project statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Public Resources Code section 21080(b)(10);

2. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a Third Amendment to the Agreement with Lyft to extend the SCRides Program for an additional year through June 30, 2025; and

3. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a Third Amendment to the Agreement with Butterfli to extend the SCRides Program for an additional year through June 30, 2025. ..end

AGENDA REPORT

CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE 1
Meeting Date: June 18, 2024 Agenda Item: 11K.

Submitted By: Community Development
Prepared By: Adam Atamian, Community Development Director Subject:
..titl e

CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING A FIVE YEAR LEASE FOR THE CITY OWNED COMMERCIAL BUILDING LOCATED AT 1100 N. EL CAMINO REAL (APN 692-393- 01)
..body
Fiscal Impact:

The proposed five-year lease will generate revenue of $3,724 per month, for the first year.

Subsequent years will each contain a 3% increase until the fifth year of the agreement, for total revenues of $237,254. The lease includes a commission of 6% of the gross lease, or $14,235.

Summary:

Under an exclusive listing agreement with Josh Cunningham/Kidder Mathews commercial real estate brokerage, the City received multiple inquiries and two offers to lease the City-owned building at 1100 N. El Camino Real. The best offer submitted came from Trestles Property Management, LLC for a five-year lease of the property to be used as a real estate office. The City’s contracted commercial real estate consultant drafted a prospective lease agreement for the Council’s consideration with a term of five years (October 1, 2024 – September 30, 2029) at $3,724 monthly rent for the first year, with 3% increases each year thereafter.

Background:

The current tenant, Novella Royale, Inc., has vacated the premises and the lease has been terminated. The new prospective tenant is looking to take early possession of the building on July 1, 2024 to start making interior improvements and upgrades. The proposed lease includes an abatement of rent for the first 3 months in exchange for these tenant improvements, with paid occupancy beginning October 1, 2024.

Discussion:

A five-year lease by and between the City of San Clemente and Trestles Property Management, LLC is proposed with the following terms and conditions.  $3,724 per month after the first 3 months, with 3% increases annually  One (3) three-year option to renew at market rental rate  Lease is personally guaranteed by Gary Ward
 Rules and regulations for the building included in the lease agreement 1800
Meeting Date: June 18, 2024 Agenda Item: 11K.

CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE 2
Council Options:
 Adopt Resolution No. 24-101, which would approve the five-year lease agreement by and between the City of San Clemente and Trestles Property Management, LLC.  Modify and adopt Resolution No. 24-101.
 Continue the Item and provide staff with alternative direction.  Do not approve the proposed lease agreement, which would result in the City not entering into a lease of the property at this time. Additionally, should the City not engage in a lease with any other parties who submitted recent offers to the City’s contracted real estate consultant, the commission fee stipulated in the exclusive listing agreement would remain a cost payable to the consultant for services rendered.

Environmental Review/Analysis:

Not a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378 (14 CCR 15378). Entering into the proposed lease has no potential result in either a direct or physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. The proposed use is consistent with the underlying zoning.

Recommended Actions:

Staff Recommendation ..recommendation
City staff recommends that the City Council Adopt Resolution No. 24-101 to do the following:

1. Approve the five-year lease agreement, provided as Attachment 2, for the lease to Trestles Property Management, LLC of 1100 N. El Camino Real, and

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the lease agreement, for a base rent of $3,724 per month after 3 months, with 3% increases annually, and including the commission for consultant real estate services not to exceed 6% of gross lease and one (3) three-year option to renew at market rental rate.

3.2 Early Possession. Any provision herein granƟng Lessee Early Possession of the Premises issubject to and condiƟoned upon the Premises being available for such possession prior to the Commencement Date. Any grant of Early Possession only conveys a non-exclusive right to occupy the Premises. If Lessee totally or parƟally occupies the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, the obligaƟon to pay Base Rentshall be abated for the period of such Early Possession. All other terms of this Lease (including but not limited to the obligaƟons to pay Real Property Taxes and insurance premiums and to maintain the Premises) shall be in effect 1805
during such period. Any such Early Possession shall not affect the ExpiraƟon Date.

3.3 Delay In Possession. Lessor agrees to use commercially reasonable effortsto deliver exclusive possession of the Premises to Lessee by the Commencement Date. If, despite said efforts, Lessor is unable to deliver possession by such date, Lessor shall not be subject to any liability therefor, nor shall such failure affect the validity of this Lease or change the ExpiraƟon Date. Lessee shall not, however, be obligated to pay Rent or perform its other obligaƟons unƟl Lessor delivers possession of the Premises and any period of rent abatement that Lessee would otherwise have enjoyed shall run from the date of delivery of possession and conƟnue for a period equal to what Lessee would otherwise have enjoyed under the terms hereof, but minus any days of delay caused by the acts or omissions of Lessee. If possession is not delivered within 60 days aŌer the Commencement Date, asthe same may be extended under the terms of any Work LeƩer executed by ParƟes, Lessee may, at its opƟon, by noƟce in wriƟng within 10 days aŌer the end ofsuch 60 day period, cancel this Lease, in which event the ParƟesshall be discharged from all obligaƟons hereunder. If such wriƩen noƟce is not received by Lessor within said 10 day period, Lessee's right to cancel shall terminate. If possession of the Premises is not delivered within 120 days aŌer the Commencement Date, this Lease shall terminate unless other agreements are reached between Lessor and Lessee, in wriƟng.

3.4 Lessee Compliance. Lessor shall not be required to tender possession of the Premisesto Lessee unƟl Lessee complies with its obligaƟon to provide evidence of insurance (Paragraph 8.5). Pending delivery of such evidence, Lessee shall be required to perform all of its obligaƟons under this Lease from and aŌer the Start Date, including the payment of Rent, notwithstanding Lessor's elecƟon to withhold possession pending receipt of such evidence of insurance. Further, if Lessee isrequired to perform any other condiƟons prior to or concurrent with the Start Date, the Start Date shall occur but Lessor may elect to withhold possession unƟl such condiƟons are saƟsfied.

4. Rent.

4.1 Rent Defined. All monetary obligaƟons of Lessee to Lessor under the terms of this Lease (except for the Security Deposit) are deemed to be rent ("Rent").

4.2 Payment. Lessee shall cause payment of Rent to be received by Lessor in lawful money of the United States, without offset or deducƟon (except as specifically permiƩed in this Lease), on or before the day on which it is due. All monetary amounts shall be rounded to the nearest whole dollar. In the event that any invoice prepared by Lessor isinaccurate such inaccuracy shall not consƟtute a waiver and Lessee shall be obligated to pay the amountset forth in this Lease. Rent for any period during the term hereof which is for lessthan one full calendar month shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days of said month. Payment of Rentshall be made to Lessor at its address stated herein or to such other persons or place as Lessor may from Ɵme to Ɵme designate in wriƟng. Acceptance of a payment which isless than the amount then due shall not be a waiver of Lessor's rightsto the balance of such Rent, regardless of Lessor's endorsement of any check so staƟng. In the event that any check, draŌ, or other instrument of payment given by Lessee to Lessor is dishonored for any reason, Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor the sum of $25 in addiƟon to any Late Charge and Lessor, at its opƟon, may require all future paymentsto be made by Lessee to be by cashier's check. Payments will be applied first to accrued late charges and aƩorney's fees, second to accrued interest, then to Base Rent, Insurance and Real Property Taxes, and any remaining amount to any other outstanding charges or costs.

4.3 AssociaƟon Fees. In addiƟon to the Base Rent, Lessee shall pay to Lessor each month an amount equal to any owner's associaƟon or condominium fees levied or assessed against the Premises. Said monies shall be paid at the same Ɵme and in the same manner asthe Base Rent.

5. Security Deposit. Lessee shall deposit with Lessor upon execuƟon hereof the Security Deposit assecurity for Lessee'sfaithful performance of its obligaƟons under this Lease. If Lessee fails to pay Rent, or otherwise Defaults under this Lease, Lessor may use, apply or retain all or any porƟon ofsaid Security Deposit for the payment of any amount already due Lessor, for Rents which will be due in the future, and/ or to reimburse or compensate Lessor for any liability, expense, loss or damage which Lessor may suffer orincur by reason thereof. If Lessor uses or applies all or any porƟon of the Security Deposit, Lessee shall within 10 days aŌer wriƩen request therefor deposit monies with Lessor sufficient to restore said Security Deposit to the full amount required by this Lease. If the Base Rent increases during the term of this Lease, Lessee shall, upon wriƩen request from Lessor, deposit addiƟonal monies with Lessor so that the total amount of the Security Deposit shall at all Ɵmes bear the same proporƟon to the increased Base Rent as the iniƟal Security Deposit bore to the iniƟal Base Rent. Should the Agreed Use be amended to accommodate a material change in the business of Lessee or to accommodate a sublessee or assignee, Lessor shall have the right to increase the Security Deposit to the extent necessary, in Lessor'sreasonable judgment, to account for any increased wear and tear that the Premises may suffer as a result thereof. If a change in control of Lessee occurs during this Lease and following such change the financial condiƟon of Lessee is, in Lessor's reasonable judgment, significantly reduced, Lessee shall deposit such addiƟonal monies with Lessor asshall be sufficient to cause the Security Deposit to be at a commercially reasonable level based on such change in financial condiƟon. Lessor shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general accounts. Within 90 days aŌer the expiraƟon or terminaƟon of this Lease, Lessor shall return that porƟon of the Security Deposit not used or applied by Lessor. Lessor shall upon wriƩen request provide Lessee with an accounƟng showing how that porƟon of the Security Deposit that was not returned was applied. No part of the Security Deposit shall be considered to be held in trust, to bear interest or to be prepayment for any monies to be paid by Lessee under this Lease. THE SECURITY DEPOSIT SHALL NOT BE USED BY LESSEE IN LIEU OF PAYMENT OF THE LAST MONTH'S RENT.

Lessorshall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any wriƩen request for a modificaƟon of the Agreed Use,so long as the same will not impair the structural integrity of the improvements on the Premises or the mechanical or electrical systemstherein, and/or is not significantly more burdensome to the Premises. If Lessor elects to withhold consent, Lessor shall within 7 days aŌer such request give wriƩen noƟficaƟon of same, which noƟce shall include an explanaƟon of Lessor's objecƟons to the change in the Agreed Use.

liquid paper, glue, etc.) and common household cleaning materials, so long as such use isin compliance with all Applicable Requirements, is not a Reportable Use, and does not expose the Premises or neighboring property to any meaningful risk of contaminaƟon or damage or expose Lessor to any liability therefor. In addiƟon, Lessor may condiƟon its consent to any Reportable Use upon receiving such addiƟonal assurances as Lessor reasonably deems necessary to protect itself, the public, the Premises and/or the environment against damage, contaminaƟon, injury and/or liability, including, but not limited to, the installaƟon (and removal on or before Lease expiraƟon or terminaƟon) of protecƟve modificaƟons (such as concrete encasements) and/or increasing the Security Deposit. (b) Duty to Inform Lessor. If Lessee knows, or hasreasonable cause to believe, that a Hazardous Substance has come to be located in, on, under or about the Premises, other than as previously consented to by Lessor, Lessee shall immediately give wriƩen noƟce ofsuch fact to Lessor, and provide Lessor with a copy of any report, noƟce, claim or other documentaƟon which it has concerning the presence of such Hazardous Substance. (c) Lessee RemediaƟon. Lessee shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Substance to be spilled or released in, on, under, or about the Premises (including through the plumbing or sanitary sewer system) and shall promptly, at Lessee's expense, comply with all Applicable Requirements and take all invesƟgatory and/or remedial acƟon reasonably recommended, whether or not formally ordered or required, for the cleanup of any contaminaƟon of, and for the maintenance, security and/or monitoring of the Premises or neighboring properƟes, that was caused or materially contributed to by Lessee, or pertaining to or involving any Hazardous Substance brought onto the Premises during the term of this Lease, by or for Lessee, or any third party.

(g) Lessor TerminaƟon OpƟon. If a Hazardous Substance CondiƟon (see Paragraph 9.1(e)) occurs during the term of this Lease, unless Lessee is legally responsible therefor (in which case Lessee shall make the invesƟgaƟon and remediaƟon thereof required by the Applicable Requirements and this Lease shall conƟnue in full force and effect, but subject to Lessor's rights under Paragraph 6.2(d) and Paragraph 13), Lessor may, at Lessor's opƟon, either (i) invesƟgate and remediate such Hazardous Substance CondiƟon, if required, assoon asreasonably possible at Lessor's expense, in which event this Lease shall conƟnue in full force and effect, or (ii) if the esƟmated cost to remediate such condiƟon exceeds 12 Ɵmes the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000, whichever is greater, give wriƩen noƟce to Lessee, within 30 days aŌer receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such Hazardous Substance CondiƟon, of Lessor's desire to terminate this Lease as of the date 60 daysfollowing the date of such noƟce. In the event Lessor electsto give a terminaƟon noƟce, Lessee may, within 10 days thereaŌer, give wriƩen noƟce to Lessor of Lessee's commitment to pay the amount by which the cost of the remediaƟon of such Hazardous Substance CondiƟon exceeds an amount equal to 12 Ɵmesthe then monthly Base Rent or $100,000, whichever is greater. Lessee shall provide Lessor with said funds or saƟsfactory assurance thereof within 30 days following such commitment. In such event, this Lease shall conƟnue in full force and effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such remediaƟon assoon asreasonably possible aŌer the required funds are available. If Lessee does not give such noƟce and provide the required funds or assurance thereof within the Ɵme provided, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in Lessor's noƟce of terminaƟon.

Lessee shall, within 10 days aŌer receipt of Lessor's wriƩen request, provide Lessor with copies of all permits and other documents, and other informaƟon evidencing Lessee's compliance with any Applicable Requirements specified by Lessor, and shall immediately upon receipt, noƟfy Lessor in wriƟng (with copies of any documents involved) of any threatened or actual claim, noƟce, citaƟon, warning, complaint or report pertaining to or involving the failure of Lessee or the Premises to comply with any Applicable Requirements. Likewise, Lessee shall immediately give wriƩen noƟce to Lessor of: (i) any water damage to the Premises and any suspected seepage, pooling, dampness or other condiƟon conducive to the producƟon of mold; or(ii) any musƟness or other odors that might indicate the presence of mold in the Premises.

The cost of any such inspecƟons shall be paid by Lessor, unless a violaƟon of Applicable Requirements, or a Hazardous Substance CondiƟon (see Paragraph 9.1(e)) is found to exist or be imminent, or the inspecƟon is requested or ordered by a governmental authority. In such case, Lessee shall upon request reimburse Lessor for the cost of such inspecƟon, so long as such inspecƟon is reasonably related to the violaƟon or contaminaƟon. In addiƟon, Lessee shall provide copies of all relevant material safety data sheets(MSDS) to Lessor within 10 days of the receipt of a wriƩen request therefor. Lessee acknowledges that any failure on its part to allow such inspecƟons or tesƟng will expose Lessor to risks and potenƟally cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the extent of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, should the Lessee fail to allow such inspecƟons and/or tesƟng in a Ɵmely fashion the Base Rent shall be automaƟcally increased, without any requirement for noƟce to Lessee, by an amount equal to 10% of the then exisƟng Base Rent or $100, whichever is greater for the remainder to the Lease. The ParƟes agree that such increase in Base Rent represents fair and reasonable compensaƟon for the addiƟonal risk/costs that Lessor will incur by reason of Lessee'sfailure to allow such inspecƟon and/or tesƟng. Such increase in Base Rent shall in no event consƟtute a waiver of Lessee's Default or Breach with respect to such failure nor prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder.

Insurance Cost Increase shall include but not be limited to increases resulƟng from the nature of Lessee's occupancy, any act or omission of Lessee, requirements of the holder of mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises, increased valuaƟon of the Premises and/or a premium rate increase. The parƟes are encouraged to fill in the Base Premium in Paragraph 1.8 with a reasonable premium for the Required Insurance based on the Agreed Use of the Premises. If the parƟesfail to insert a dollar amount in Paragraph 1.8, then the Base Premium shall be the lowest annual premium reasonably obtainable for the Required Insurance as of the commencement of the Original Term for the Agreed Use of the Premises. In no event, however, shall Lessee be responsible for any porƟon of the increase in the premium cost aƩributable to liability insurance carried by Lessor under Paragraph 8.2(b) in excess of $2,000,000 per occurrence. (b) Lessee shall pay any such Insurance Cost Increase to Lessor within 30 days aŌer receipt by Lessee of a copy of the premium statement or other reasonable evidence of the amount due. If the insurance policies maintained hereunder cover other property besides the Premises, Lessor shall also deliver to Lessee a statement of the amount ofsuch Insurance Cost Increase aƩributable only to the Premisesshowing in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount was computed. Premiumsfor policy periods commencing prior to, or extending beyond the term of this Lease, shall be prorated to correspond to the term of this Lease.

8.2 Liability Insurance.
(a) Carried by Lessee. Lessee shall obtain and keep in force a Commercial General Liability policy of insurance protecƟng Lessee and Lessor as an addiƟonal insured against claims for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage based upon or arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises and all areas appurtenant thereto. Such insurance shall be on an occurrence basis providing single limit coverage in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence with an annual aggregate of not less than $2,000,000. Lessee shall add Lessor as an addiƟonal insured by means of an endorsement at least as broad as the Insurance Service OrganizaƟon's "AddiƟonal Insured-Managers or Lessors of Premises" Endorsement. The policy shall not contain any intra-insured exclusions as between insured persons or organizaƟons, but shall include coverage for liability assumed under this Lease as an "insured contract" for the performance of Lessee's indemnity obligaƟons under this Lease. The limits of said insurance shall not, however, limit the liability of Lessee nor relieve Lessee of any obligaƟon hereunder.

Lessee shall provide an endorsement on its liability policy(ies) which provides that its insurance shall be primary to and not contributory with any similar insurance carried by Lessor, whose insurance shall be considered excess insurance only. (b) Carried by Lessor. Lessor shall maintain liability insurance as described in Paragraph 8.2(a), in addiƟon to, and not in lieu of, the insurance required to be maintained by Lessee. Lessee shall not be named as an addiƟonal insured therein.

8.3 Property Insurance - Building, Improvements and Rental Value. (a) Building and Improvements. The Insuring Party shall obtain and keep in force a policy or policiesin the name of Lessor, with loss payable to Lessor, any ground-lessor, and to any Lender insuring loss or damage to the Premises. The amount of such insurance shall be equal to the full insurable replacement cost of the Premises, asthe same shall exist from Ɵme to Ɵme, or the amount required by any Lender, but in no event more than the commercially reasonable and available insurable value thereof. Lessee Owned AlteraƟons and UƟlity InstallaƟons, Trade Fixtures, and Lessee's personal property shall be insured by Lessee not by Lessor. If the coverage is available and commercially appropriate, such policy or policies shall insure against all risks of direct physical loss or damage (except the perils of flood and/or earthquake unless required by a Lender or included in the Base Premium), including coverage for debris removal and the enforcement of any Applicable Requirements requiring the upgrading, demoliƟon, reconstrucƟon or replacement of any porƟon of the Premises asthe result of a covered loss. Said policy or policies shall also contain an agreed valuaƟon provision in lieu of any coinsurance clause, waiver ofsubrogaƟon, and inflaƟon guard protecƟon causing an increase in the annual property insurance coverage amount by a factor of not less than the adjusted U.S. Department of Labor Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the city nearest to where the Premises are located. If such insurance coverage has a deducƟble clause, the deducƟble amountshall not exceed $5,000 per occurrence, and Lessee shall be liable for such deducƟble amount in the event of an Insured Loss. (b) Rental Value. The Insuring Party shall obtain and keep in force a policy or policies in the name of Lessor with loss payable to Lessor and any Lender, insuring the loss of the full Rent for one year with an extended period of indemnity for an addiƟonal 180 days ("Rental Value insurance"). Said insurance shall contain an agreed valuaƟon provision in lieu of any coinsurance clause, and the amount of coverage shall be adjusted annually to reflect the projected Rent otherwise payable by Lessee, for the next 12 month period. Lessee shall be liable for any deducƟble amount in the event of such loss. (c) Adjacent Premises. If the Premises are part of a larger building, or of a group of buildings owned by Lessor which are adjacent to the Premises, the Lessee shall pay for any increase in the premiums for the property insurance of such building or buildingsif said increase is caused by Lessee's acts, omissions, use or occupancy of the Premises.

Lessee shall obtain and maintain insurance coverage on all of Lessee's personal property, Trade Fixtures, and Lessee Owned AlteraƟons and UƟlity InstallaƟons. Such insurance shall be full replacement cost coverage with a deducƟble of not to exceed $1,000 per occurrence. The proceeds from any such insurance shall be used by Lessee for the replacement of personal property, Trade Fixtures and Lessee Owned AlteraƟons and UƟlity InstallaƟons. (b) BusinessInterrupƟon. Lessee shall obtain and maintain loss of income and extra expense insurance in amounts as will reimburse Lessee for direct or indirect loss of earnings aƩributable to all perils commonly insured against by prudent lessees in the business of Lessee or aƩributable to prevenƟon of accessto the Premises as a result of such perils.
(c) Worker's CompensaƟon Insurance. Lessee shall obtain and maintain Worker's CompensaƟon Insurance in such amount as may be required by Applicable Requirements. Such policy shall include a 'Waiver of SubrogaƟon' endorsement. Lessee shall provide Lessor with a copy of such endorsement along with 1809

Lessor makes no representaƟon that the limits or forms of coverage of insurance specified herein are adequate to cover Lessee's property, business operaƟons or obligaƟons under this Lease.

8.5 Insurance Policies. Insurance required herein shall be by companies maintaining during the policy term a "General Policyholders RaƟng" of at least A-, VII, as set forth in the most current issue of "Best'sInsurance Guide", or such other raƟng as may be required by a Lender. Lessee shall not do or permit to be done anything which invalidates the required insurance policies. Lessee shall, prior to the Start Date, deliver to Lessor cerƟfied copies of policies of such insurance or cerƟficates with copies of the required endorsements evidencing the existence and amounts of the required insurance. No such policy shall be cancelable or subject to modificaƟon except aŌer 30 days prior wriƩen noƟce to Lessor. Lessee shall, at least 10 days prior to the expiraƟon of such policies, furnish Lessor with evidence of renewals or "insurance binders" evidencing renewal thereof, or Lessor may increase his liability insurance coverage and charge the cost thereof to Lessee, which amount shall be payable by Lessee to Lessor upon demand. Such policies shall be for a term of at least one year, or the length of the remaining term of this Lease, whichever is less. If either Party shall fail to procure and maintain the insurance required to be carried by it, the other Party may, but shall not be required to, procure and maintain the same.

8.6 Waiver of SubrogaƟon. Without affecƟng any other rights or remedies, Lessee and Lessor each hereby release and relieve the other, and waive their enƟre right to recover damages against the other, for loss of or damage to its property arising out of or incident to the perilsrequired to be insured against herein. The effect of such releases and waivers is not limited by the amount of insurance carried or required, or by any deducƟbles applicable hereto. The ParƟes agree to have their respecƟve property damage insurance carriers waive any right to subrogaƟon that such companies may have against Lessor or Lessee, as the case may be, so long as the insurance is not invalidated thereby.

8.7 Indemnity. Except for Lessor's gross negligence or willful misconduct, Lessee shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless the Premises, Lessor and its agents, Lessor's master or ground lessor, partners and Lenders, from and against any and all claims, loss of rents and/or damages, liens, judgments, penalƟes, aƩorneys' and consultants' fees, expenses and/or liabiliƟes arising out of, involving, or in connecƟon with, a Breach of the Lease by Lessee and/or the use and/or occupancy of the Premises and/or Project by Lessee and/or by Lessee's employees, contractors or invitees. If any acƟon or proceeding is brought against Lessor by reason of any of the foregoing maƩers, Lessee shall upon noƟce defend the same at Lessee's expense by counsel reasonably saƟsfactory to Lessor and Lessor shall cooperate with Lessee in such defense. Lessor need not have first paid any such claim in order to be defended or indemnified.

8.8 ExempƟon of Lessor and its Agentsfrom Liability. Notwithstanding the negligence or breach of this Lease by Lessor or its agents, neither Lessor nor its agentsshall be liable under any circumstances for: (i) injury or damage to the person or goods, wares, merchandise or other property of Lessee, Lessee's employees, contractors, invitees, customers, or any other person in or about the Premises, whethersuch damage or injury is caused by or results from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, indoor air quality, the presence of mold or from the breakage, leakage, obstrucƟon or other defects of pipes, fire sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, HVAC or lighƟng fixtures, or from any other cause, whether the said injury or damage results from condiƟons arising upon the Premises or upon other porƟons of the building of which the Premises are a part, or from other sources or places, (ii) any damages arising from any act or neglect of any other tenant of Lessor or from the failure of Lessor or its agentsto enforce the provisions of any other lease in the Project, or (iii) injury to Lessee's business or for any loss of income or profit therefrom.

Instead, it is intended that Lessee's sole recourse in the event ofsuch damages or injury be to file a claim on the insurance policy(ies) that Lessee is required to maintain pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 8.

8.9 Failure to Provide Insurance. Lessee acknowledgesthat any failure on its part to obtain or maintain the insurance required herein will expose Lessor to risks and potenƟally cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the extent of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, for any month or porƟon thereof that Lessee does not maintain the required insurance and/or does not provide Lessor with the required binders or cerƟficates evidencing the existence of the required insurance, the Base Rent shall be automaƟcally increased, without any requirement for noƟce to Lessee, by an amount equal to 10% of the then exisƟng Base Rent or $100, whichever is greater. The parƟes agree that such increase in Base Rent representsfair and reasonable compensaƟon for the addiƟonal risk/costs that Lessor will incur by reason of Lessee'sfailure to maintain the required insurance. Such increase in Base Rentshall in no event consƟtute a waiver of Lessee's Default or Breach with respect to the failure to maintain such insurance, prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder, nor relieve Lessee of its obligaƟon to maintain the insurance specified in this Lease.

9. Damage or DestrucƟon.

9.1 DefiniƟons.
(a) "Premises ParƟal Damage" shall mean damage or destrucƟon to the improvements on the Premises, other than Lessee Owned AlteraƟons and UƟlity InstallaƟons, which can reasonably be repaired in 6 months orless from the date of the damage or destrucƟon. Lessor shall noƟfy Lessee in wriƟng within 30 days from the date of the damage or destrucƟon as to whether or not the damage is ParƟal or Total. (b) "Premises Total DestrucƟon" shall mean damage or destrucƟon to the Premises, other than Lessee Owned AlteraƟons and UƟlity InstallaƟons and Trade Fixtures, which cannot reasonably be repaired in 6 months or less from the date of the damage or destrucƟon. Lessorshall noƟfy Lessee in wriƟng within 30 daysfrom the date of the damage or destrucƟon as to whether or not the damage is ParƟal or Total. (c) "Insured Loss" shall mean damage or destrucƟon to improvements on the Premises, other than Lessee Owned AlteraƟons and UƟlity InstallaƟons and Trade Fixtures, which was caused by an event required to be covered by the insurance described in Paragraph 8.3(a), irrespecƟve of any deducƟble amounts or coverage limits involved.
(d) "Replacement Cost" shall mean the cost to repair or rebuild the improvements owned by Lessor at the Ɵme of the occurrence to their condiƟon exisƟng immediately prior thereto, including demoliƟon, debris removal and upgrading required by the operaƟon of Applicable Requirements, and without deducƟon for depreciaƟon.
(e) "Hazardous Substance CondiƟon" shall mean the occurrence or discovery of a condiƟon involving the presence of, or a contaminaƟon by, a Hazardous Substance, in, on, or under the Premises which requires restoraƟon.

9.2 ParƟal Damage - Insured Loss. If a Premises ParƟal Damage that is an Insured Loss occurs, then Lessor shall, at Lessor's expense, repair such damage (but not Lessee's Trade Fixtures or Lessee Owned AlteraƟons and UƟlity InstallaƟons) as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall conƟnue in full force and effect; provided, however, that Lessee shall, at Lessor's elecƟon, make the repair of any damage or destrucƟon the total cost to repair of which is $10,000 or less, and, in such event, Lessor shall make any applicable insurance proceeds available to Lessee on a reasonable basisfor that purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the required insurance was not in force or the insurance proceeds are not sufficient to effect such repair, the Insuring Party shall promptly contribute the shortage in proceeds (except as to the deducƟble which is Lessee's responsibility) as and when required to complete said repairs. In the event, however, such shortage was due to the fact that, by reason of the unique nature of the improvements, full replacement cost insurance coverage was not commercially reasonable and available, Lessor shall have no obligaƟon to pay for the shortage in insurance proceeds or to fully restore the unique aspects of the Premises unless Lessee provides Lessor with the funds to cover same, or adequate assurance thereof, within 10 daysfollowing receipt of wriƩen noƟce of such shortage and request therefor. If Lessor receives said funds or adequate assurance thereof within said 10 day period, the party responsible for making the repairs shall complete them as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. If such funds or assurance are not received, Lessor may nevertheless elect by wriƩen noƟce to Lessee within 10 days thereaŌer 1810
to: (i) make such restoraƟon and repair as is commercially reasonable with Lessor paying any shortage in proceeds, in which case this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, or (ii) have this Lease terminate 30 daysthereaŌer. Lessee shall not be enƟtled to reimbursement of any funds contributed by Lessee to repair any such damage or destrucƟon. Premises ParƟal Damage due to flood or earthquake shall be subject to Paragraph 9.3, notwithstanding that there may be some insurance coverage, but the net proceeds of any such insurance shall be made available for the repairs if made by either Party.

9.3 ParƟal Damage - Uninsured Loss. If a Premises ParƟal Damage that is not an Insured Loss occurs, unless caused by a negligent or willful act of Lessee (in which event Lessee shall make the repairs at Lessee's expense), Lessor may either: (i) repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible at Lessor's expense, in which event this Lease shall conƟnue in full force and effect, or (ii) terminate this Lease by giving wriƩen noƟce to Lessee within 30 days aŌer receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such damage. Such terminaƟon shall be effecƟve 60 days following the date of such noƟce. In the event Lessor elects to terminate this Lease, Lessee shall have the right within 10 days aŌer receipt of the terminaƟon noƟce to give wriƩen noƟce to Lessor of Lessee's commitment to pay for the repair ofsuch damage without reimbursement from Lessor. Lessee shall provide Lessor with said funds or saƟsfactory assurance thereof within 30 days aŌer making such commitment. In such event this Lease shall conƟnue in full force and effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such repairs as soon asreasonably possible aŌer the required funds are available. If Lessee does not make the required commitment, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in the terminaƟon noƟce.

9.4 Total DestrucƟon. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if a Premises Total DestrucƟon occurs, this Lease shall terminate 60 days following such DestrucƟon. If the damage or destrucƟon was caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lessee, Lessor shall have the right to recover Lessor's damages from Lessee, except as provided in Paragraph 8.6.

9.5 Damage Near End of Term. If at any Ɵme during the last 6 months of this Lease there is damage for which the cost to repair exceeds one month's Base Rent, whether or not an Insured Loss, Lessor may terminate this Lease effecƟve 60 daysfollowing the date of occurrence of such damage by giving a wriƩen terminaƟon noƟce to Lessee within 30 days aŌer the date of occurrence ofsuch damage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lessee at that Ɵme has an exercisable opƟon to extend this Lease or to purchase the Premises, then Lessee may preserve this Lease by, (a) exercising such opƟon and (b) providing Lessor with any shortage in insurance proceeds(or adequate assurance thereof) needed to make the repairs on or before the earlier of (i) the date which is 10 days aŌer Lessee's receipt of Lessor's wriƩen noƟce purporƟng to terminate this Lease, or (ii) the day prior to the date upon which such opƟon expires. If Lessee duly exercises such opƟon during such period and provides Lessor with funds (or adequate assurance thereof) to cover any shortage in insurance proceeds, Lessor shall, at Lessor's commercially reasonable expense, repair such damage as soon asreasonably possible and this Lease shall conƟnue in full force and effect. If Lessee fails to exercise such opƟon and provide such funds or assurance during such period, then this Lease shall terminate on the date specified in the terminaƟon noƟce and Lessee's opƟon shall be exƟnguished.

9.6 Abatement of Rent; Lessee's Remedies.
(a) Abatement. In the event of Premises ParƟal Damage or Premises Total DestrucƟon or a Hazardous Substance CondiƟon for which Lessee is not responsible under this Lease, the Rent payable by Lessee for the period required for the repair, remediaƟon or restoraƟon of such damage shall be abated in proporƟon to the degree to which Lessee's use of the Premises is impaired, but not to exceed the proceeds received from the Rental Value insurance. All other obligaƟons of Lessee hereunder shall be performed by Lessee, and Lessor shall have no liability for any such damage, destrucƟon, remediaƟon, repair or restoraƟon except as provided herein.
(b) Remedies. If Lessor is obligated to repair or restore the Premises and does not commence, in a substanƟal and meaningful way, such repair or restoraƟon within 90 days aŌersuch obligaƟon shall accrue, Lessee may, at any Ɵme prior to the commencement of such repair or restoraƟon, give wriƩen noƟce to Lessor and to any Lenders of which Lessee has actual noƟce, of Lessee's elecƟon to terminate this Lease on a date not lessthan 60 days following the giving of such noƟce. If Lessee givessuch noƟce and such repair or restoraƟon is not commenced within 30 days thereaŌer, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in said noƟce. If the repair or restoraƟon is commenced within such 30 days, this Lease shall conƟnue in full force and effect. "Commence" shall mean either the uncondiƟonal authorizaƟon of the preparaƟon of the required plans, or the beginning of the actual work on the Premises, whichever first occurs.

9.7 TerminaƟon; Advance Payments. Upon terminaƟon of this Lease pursuant to Paragraph 6.2(g) or Paragraph 9, an equitable adjustment shall be made concerning advance Base Rent and any other advance payments made by Lessee to Lessor. Lessor shall, in addiƟon, return to Lessee so much of Lessee's Security Deposit as has not been, or is not then required to be, used by Lessor.

10. Real Property Taxes.

10.1 DefiniƟon. As used herein, the term "Real Property Taxes" shall include any form of assessment; real estate, general, special, ordinary or extraordinary, or rental levy or tax (other than inheritance, personal income or estate taxes); improvement bond; and/or license fee imposed upon or levied against any legal or equitable interest of Lessor in the Premises or the Project, Lessor's right to other income therefrom, and/or Lessor's business of leasing, by any authority having the direct or indirect power to tax and where the funds are generated with reference to the Building address. Real Property Taxes shall also include any tax, fee, levy, assessment or charge, or any increase therein: (i) imposed by reason of events occurring during the term of this Lease, including but not limited to, a change in the ownership of the Premises, and (ii) levied or assessed on machinery or equipment provided by Lessor to Lessee pursuant to this Lease.

10.2 Payment of Taxes. Lessor shall pay the Real Property Taxes applicable to the Premises provided, however, that Lessee shall pay to Lessor the amount, if any, by which Real Property Taxes applicable to the Premises increase over the fiscal tax year during which the Commencement Date Occurs("Tax Increase"). Payment of any such Tax Increase shall be made by Lessee to Lessor within 30 days aŌer receipt of Lessor's wriƩen statement seƫng forth the amount due and computaƟon thereof. If any such taxes shall cover any period of Ɵme prior to or aŌer the expiraƟon or terminaƟon of this Lease, Lessee's share of such taxes shall be prorated to cover only that porƟon of the tax bill applicable to the period that this Lease is in effect. In the event Lessee incurs a late charge on any Rent payment, Lessor may esƟmate the current Real Property Taxes, and require that the Tax Increase be paid in advance to Lessor by Lessee monthly in advance with the payment of the Base Rent. Such monthly payment shall be an amount equal to the amount of the esƟmated installment of the Tax Increase divided by the number of months remaining before the month in which said installment becomes delinquent. When the actual amount of the applicable Tax Increase is known, the amount of such equal monthly advance payments shall be adjusted asrequired to provide the funds needed to pay the applicable Tax Increase. If the amount collected by Lessor is insufficient to pay the Tax Increase when due, Lessee shall pay Lessor, upon demand, such addiƟonal sums as are necessary to pay such obligaƟons. Advance payments may be intermingled with other moneys of Lessor and shall not bear interest. In the event of a Breach by Lessee in the performance of its obligaƟons under this Lease, then any such advance payments may be treated by Lessor as an addiƟonal Security Deposit.

10.3 AddiƟonal Improvements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Paragraph 10.2, Lessee shall pay to Lessor upon demand therefor the enƟrety of any increase in Real Property Taxes assessed by reason of AlteraƟons or UƟlity InstallaƟons placed upon the Premises by Lessee or at Lessee's request or by reason of any alteraƟons or improvementsto the Premises made by Lessor subsequent to the execuƟon of this Lease by the ParƟes.

10.4 Joint Assessment. If the Premises are notseparately assessed, Lessee's liability shall be an equitable proporƟon of the Tax Increase for all of the land and improvements included within the tax parcel assessed, such proporƟon to be conclusively determined by Lessor from the respecƟve valuaƟons assigned in the assessor's work sheets or such other informaƟon as may be reasonably available.

10.5 Personal Property Taxes. Lessee shall pay, prior to delinquency, all taxes assessed against and levied upon Lessee Owned AlteraƟons, UƟlity InstallaƟons, Trade Fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all personal property of Lessee. When possible, Lessee shall cause its Lessee Owned AlteraƟons and UƟlity InstallaƟons, 1811
Trade Fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the real property of Lessor. If any of Lessee's said property shall be assessed with Lessor's real property, Lessee shall pay Lessor the taxes aƩributable to Lessee's property within 10 days aŌer receipt of a wriƩen statement seƫng forth the taxes applicable to Lessee's property.

11. UƟliƟes and Services.

11.1 Lessee shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone, trash disposal and other uƟliƟes and servicessupplied to the Premises, together with any taxesthereon. If any such services are not separately metered or billed to Lessee, Lessee shall pay a reasonable proporƟon, to be determined by Lessor, of all charges jointly metered or billed. There shall be no abatement of rent and Lessor shall not be liable in any respect whatsoever for the inadequacy, stoppage, interrupƟon or disconƟnuance of any uƟlity or service due to riot, strike, labor dispute, breakdown, accident, repair or other cause beyond Lessor's reasonable control or in cooperaƟon with governmental request or direcƟons.

11.2 Within fiŌeen days of Lessor's wriƩen request, Lessee agrees to deliver to Lessor such informaƟon, documents and/or authorizaƟon as Lessor needs in order for Lessorto comply with new or exisƟng Applicable Requirements relaƟng to commercial building energy usage, raƟngs, and/or the reporƟng thereof.

12. Assignment and Subleƫng.

12.1 Lessor's Consent Required.
(a) Lessee shall not voluntarily or by operaƟon of law assign, transfer, mortgage or encumber (collecƟvely, "assign or assignment") orsublet all or any part of Lessee's interest in this Lease or in the Premises without Lessor's prior wriƩen consent. (b) Unless Lessee is a corporaƟon and its stock is publicly traded on a naƟonal stock exchange, a change in the control of Lessee shall consƟtute an assignment requiring consent. The transfer, on a cumulaƟve basis, of 25% or more of the voƟng control of Lessee shall consƟtute a change in control for this purpose. (c) The involvement of Lessee or its assets in any transacƟon, or series of transacƟons (by way of merger, sale, acquisiƟon, financing, transfer, leveraged buyout or otherwise), whether or not a formal assignment or hypothecaƟon of this Lease or Lessee's assets occurs, which results or willresult in a reducƟon of the Net Worth of Lessee by an amount greater than 25% of such Net Worth asit was represented at the Ɵme of the execuƟon of this Lease or at the Ɵme of the most recent assignment to which Lessor has consented, or as it exists immediately prior to said transacƟon or transacƟons consƟtuƟng such reducƟon, whichever was or is greater, shall be considered an assignment of this Lease to which Lessor may withhold its consent. "Net Worth of Lessee" shall mean the net worth of Lessee (excluding any guarantors) established under generally accepted accounƟng principles. (d) An assignment or subleƫng without consentshall, at Lessor's opƟon, be a Default curable aŌer noƟce per Paragraph 13.1(d), or a non-curable Breach without the necessity of any noƟce and grace period. If Lessor elects to treatsuch unapproved assignment or subleƫng as a non-curable Breach, Lessor may either:
(i) terminate this Lease, or (ii) upon 30 days wriƩen noƟce, increase the monthly Base Rent to 110% of the Base Rent then in effect. Further, in the event of such Breach and rental adjustment, (i) the purchase price of any opƟon to purchase the Premises held by Lessee shall be subject to similar adjustment to 110% of the price previously in effect, and (ii) all fixed and non-fixed rental adjustments scheduled during the remainder of the Lease term shall be increased to 110% of the scheduled adjusted rent.
(e) Lessee's remedy for any breach of Paragraph 12.1 by Lessor shall be limited to compensatory damages and/or injuncƟve relief. (f) Lessor may reasonably withhold consent to a proposed assignment or subleƫng if Lessee is in Default at the Ɵme consent is requested. (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, allowing a de minimis porƟon of the Premises, i.e. 20 square feet orless, to be used by a third party vendor in connecƟon with the installaƟon of a vending machine or payphone shall not consƟtute a subleƫng.

12.2 Terms and CondiƟons Applicable to Assignment and Subleƫng. (a) Regardless of Lessor's consent, no assignment orsubleƫng shall : (i) be effecƟve without the express wriƩen assumpƟon by such assignee or sublessee of the obligaƟons of Lessee under this Lease, (ii) release Lessee of any obligaƟons hereunder, or (iii) alter the primary liability of Lessee for the payment of Rent or for the performance of any other obligaƟons to be performed by Lessee. (b) Lessor may accept Rent or performance of Lessee's obligaƟons from any person other than Lessee pending approval or disapproval of an assignment.

Neither a delay in the approval or disapproval of such assignment nor the acceptance of Rent or performance shall consƟtute a waiver or estoppel of Lessor's right to exercise its remedies for Lessee's Default or Breach.
(c) Lessor's consent to any assignment orsubleƫng shall not consƟtute a consent to any subsequent assignment orsubleƫng. (d) In the event of any Default or Breach by Lessee, Lessor may proceed directly against Lessee, any Guarantors or anyone else responsible for the performance of Lessee's obligaƟons under this Lease, including any assignee or sublessee, without first exhausƟng Lessor's remedies against any other person or enƟty responsible therefor to Lessor, or any security held by Lessor. (e) Each request for consent to an assignment or subleƫng shall be in wriƟng, accompanied by informaƟon relevant to Lessor's determinaƟon as to the financial and operaƟonal responsibility and appropriateness of the proposed assignee or sublessee, including but not limited to the intended use and/or required modificaƟon of the Premises, if any, together with a fee of $500 as consideraƟon for Lessor's considering and processing said request. Lessee agrees to provide Lessor with such other or addiƟonal informaƟon and/or documentaƟon as may be reasonably requested. (See also Paragraph 36) (f) Any assignee of, or sublessee under, this Lease shall, by reason of accepƟng such assignment, entering into such sublease, or entering into possession of the Premises or any porƟon thereof, be deemed to have assumed and agreed to conform and comply with each and every term, covenant, condiƟon and obligaƟon herein to be observed or performed by Lessee during the term of said assignment orsublease, other than such obligaƟons as are contrary to or inconsistent with provisions of an assignment orsublease to which Lessor hasspecifically consented to in wriƟng. (g) Lessor's consent to any assignment or subleƫng shall not transfer to the assignee or sublessee any OpƟon granted to the original Lessee by this Lease unless such transfer is specifically consented to by Lessor in wriƟng. (See Paragraph 39.2)

12.3 AddiƟonal Terms and CondiƟons Applicable to Subleƫng. The following terms and condiƟons shall apply to any subleƫng by Lessee of all or any part of the Premises and shall be deemed included in all subleases under this Lease whether or not expressly incorporated therein:
(a) Lessee hereby assigns and transfersto Lessor all of Lessee's interest in all Rent payable on any sublease, and Lessor may collectsuch Rent and apply same toward Lessee's obligaƟons under this Lease; provided, however, that unƟl a Breach shall occur in the performance of Lessee's obligaƟons, Lessee may collect said Rent. In the event that the amount collected by Lessor exceeds Lessee's then outstanding obligaƟons any such excess shall be refunded to Lessee. Lessor shall not, by reason of the foregoing or any assignment ofsuch sublease, nor by reason of the collecƟon of Rent, be deemed liable to the sublessee for any failure of Lessee to perform and comply with any of Lessee's obligaƟons to such sublessee. Lessee hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any such sublessee, upon receipt of a wriƩen noƟce from Lessor staƟng that a Breach exists in the performance of Lessee's obligaƟons under this Lease, to pay to Lessor all Rent due and to become due under the sublease. Sublessee shall rely upon any such noƟce from Lessor and shall pay all Rents to Lessor without any obligaƟon or right to inquire as to whether such Breach exists, notwithstanding any claim from Lessee to the contrary. (b) In the event of a Breach by Lessee, Lessor may, at its opƟon, require sublessee to aƩorn to Lessor, in which event Lessor shall undertake the obligaƟons of the sublessor undersuch sublease from the Ɵme of the exercise of said opƟon to the expiraƟon of such sublease; provided, however, Lessor shall not be 1812
liable for any prepaid rents or security deposit paid by such sublessee to such sublessor or for any prior Defaults or Breaches of such sublessor. (c) Any maƩer requiring the consent of the sublessor under a sublease shall also require the consent of Lessor. (d) No sublessee shall further assign or sublet all or any part of the Premises without Lessor's prior wriƩen consent. (e) Lessor shall deliver a copy of any noƟce of Default or Breach by Lessee to the sublessee, who shall have the right to cure the Default of Lessee within the grace period, if any,specified in such noƟce. The sublessee shall have a right of reimbursement and offset from and against Lessee for any such Defaults cured by the sublessee.

13. Default; Breach; Remedies.

13.1 Default; Breach. A "Default" is defined as a failure by the Lessee to comply with or perform any of the terms, covenants, condiƟons or Rules and RegulaƟons under this Lease. A "Breach" is defined as the occurrence of one or more of the following Defaults, and the failure of Lessee to cure such Default within any applicable grace period:
(a) The abandonment of the Premises; the vacaƟng of the Premises prior to the expiraƟon or terminaƟon of this Lease without providing a commercially reasonable level of security, or where the coverage of the property insurance described in Paragraph 8.3 isjeopardized as a result thereof, or without providing reasonable assurances to minimize potenƟal vandalism; or failure to deliver to Lessor exclusive possession of the enƟre Premises in accordance herewith prior to the expiraƟon or terminaƟon of this Lease.
(b) The failure of Lessee to make any payment of Rent or any Security Deposit required to be made by Lessee hereunder, whether to Lessor or to a third party, when due, to provide reasonable evidence of insurance or surety bond, or to fulfill any obligaƟon under this Lease which endangers or threatens life or property, where such failure conƟnues for a period of 3 business daysfollowing wriƩen noƟce to Lessee. THE ACCEPTANCE BY LESSOR OF A PARTIAL PAYMENT OF

RENT OR SECURITY DEPOSIT SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE A WAIVER OF ANY OF LESSOR'S RIGHTS, INCLUDING LESSOR'S RIGHT TO RECOVER POSSESSION OF THE PREMISES.
(c) The failure of Lessee to allow Lessor and/or its agents access to the Premises or the commission of waste, act or acts consƟtuƟng public or private nuisance, and/or an illegal acƟvity on the Premises by Lessee, where such acƟons conƟnue for a period of 3 business days following wriƩen noƟce to Lessee. In the event that Lessee commits waste, a nuisance or an illegal acƟvity a second Ɵme then, the Lessor may elect to treat such conduct as a non-curable Breach rather than a Default.
(d) The failure by Lessee to provide (i) reasonable wriƩen evidence of compliance with Applicable Requirements, (ii) the service contracts, (iii) the rescission of an unauthorized assignment or subleƫng, (iv) an Estoppel CerƟficate or financial statements, (v) a requested subordinaƟon, (vi) evidence concerning any guaranty and/or Guarantor, (vii) any document requested under Paragraph 42, (viii) material safety data sheets (MSDS), or (ix) any other documentaƟon or informaƟon which Lessor may reasonably require of Lessee under the terms of this Lease, where any such failure conƟnues for a period of 10 daysfollowing wriƩen noƟce to Lessee.
(e) A Default by Lessee asto the terms, covenants, condiƟons or provisions of this Lease, or of the rules adopted under Paragraph 40 hereof, other than those described in subparagraphs 13.1(a), (b), (c) or (d), above, where such Default conƟnues for a period of 30 days aŌer wriƩen noƟce; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessee's Default issuch that more than 30 days are reasonably required for its cure, then itshall not be deemed to be a Breach if Lessee commences such cure within said 30 day period and thereaŌer diligently prosecutes such cure to compleƟon. (f) The occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the making of any general arrangement or assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) becoming a "debtor" as defined in 11 U.S.C. § 101 or any successor statute thereto (unless, in the case of a peƟƟon filed against Lessee, the same is dismissed within 60 days); (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substanƟally all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee'sinterest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Lessee within 30 days; or (iv) the aƩachment, execuƟon or other judicial seizure of substanƟally all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within 30 days; provided, however, in the event that any provision of this subparagraph is contrary to any applicable law, such provision shall be of no force or effect, and not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. (g) The discovery that any financial statement of Lessee or of any Guarantor given to Lessor was materially false. (h) If the performance of Lessee's obligaƟons under this Lease is guaranteed: (i) the death of a Guarantor, (ii) the terminaƟon of a Guarantor's liability with respect to this Lease other than in accordance with the terms of such guaranty, (iii) a Guarantor's becoming insolvent or the subject of a bankruptcy filing, (iv) a Guarantor's refusal to honor the guaranty, or (v) a Guarantor's breach of its guaranty obligaƟon on an anƟcipatory basis, and Lessee's failure, within 60 days following wriƩen noƟce of any such event, to provide wriƩen alternaƟve assurance or security, which, when coupled with the then exisƟng resources of Lessee, equals or exceedsthe combined financial resources of Lessee and the Guarantors that existed at the Ɵme of execuƟon of this Lease.

13.2 Remedies. If Lessee fails to perform any of its affirmaƟve duƟes or obligaƟons, within 10 days aŌer wriƩen noƟce (or in case of an emergency, without noƟce), Lessor may, at its opƟon, perform such duty or obligaƟon on Lessee's behalf, including but not limited to the obtaining of reasonably required bonds, insurance policies, or governmental licenses, permits or approvals. Lessee shall pay to Lessor an amount equal to 115% of the costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in such performance upon receipt of an invoice therefor. In the event of a Breach, Lessor may, with or without further noƟce or demand, and without limiƟng Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such Breach:
(a) Terminate Lessee'sright to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession to Lessor. In such event Lessor shall be enƟtled to recover from Lessee: (i) the unpaid Rent which had been earned at the Ɵme of terminaƟon; (ii) the worth at the Ɵme of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned aŌer terminaƟon unƟl the Ɵme of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could have been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the Ɵme of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term aŌer the Ɵme of award exceeds the amount of such rental lossthat the Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by the Lessee's failure to perform its obligaƟons under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including but not limited to the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of releƫng, including necessary renovaƟon and alteraƟon of the Premises, reasonable aƩorneys' fees, and that porƟon of any leasing commission paid by Lessor in connecƟon with this Lease applicable to the unexpired term of this Lease. The worth at the Ɵme of award of the amount referred to in provision (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be computed by discounƟng such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of the District within which the Premises are located at the Ɵme of award plus one percent. Efforts by Lessor to miƟgate damages caused by Lessee's Breach of this Lease shall not waive Lessor's right to recover any damagesto which Lessor is otherwise enƟtled. If terminaƟon of this Lease is obtained through the provisional remedy of unlawful detainer, Lessor shall have the right to recover in such proceeding any unpaid Rent and damages as are recoverable therein, or Lessor may reserve the right to recover all or any part thereof in a separate suit. If a noƟce and grace period required under Paragraph 13.1 was not previously given, a noƟce to pay rent or quit, or to perform or quit given to Lessee under the unlawful detainer statute shall also consƟtute the noƟce required by Paragraph 13.1. In such case, the applicable grace period required by Paragraph 13.1 and the unlawful detainer statute shall run concurrently, and the failure of Lessee to cure the Default within the greater of the two such grace periodsshall consƟtute both an unlawful detainer and a Breach of this Lease enƟtling Lessor to the remedies provided for in this Lease and/or by said statute. (b) ConƟnue the Lease and Lessee's right to possession and recover the Rent asit becomes due, in which event Lessee may sublet or assign, subject only 1813
to reasonable limitaƟons. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet, and/or the appointment of a receiver to protect the Lessor'sinterests, shall not consƟtute a terminaƟon of the Lessee's right to possession.
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereaŌer available under the laws or judicial decisions of the state wherein the Premises are located. The expiraƟon or terminaƟon of this Lease and/or the terminaƟon of Lessee'sright to possession shall not relieve Lessee from liability under any indemnity provisions of this Lease as to maƩers occurring or accruing during the term hereof or by reason of Lessee's occupancy of the Premises.

13.3 Inducement Recapture. Any agreement for free or abated rent or other charges, the cost of tenant improvementsfor Lessee paid for or performed by Lessor, or for the giving or paying by Lessor to or for Lessee of any cash or other bonus, inducement or consideraƟon for Lessee's entering into this Lease, all of which concessions are hereinaŌer referred to as "Inducement Provisions," shall be deemed condiƟoned upon Lessee's full and faithful performance of all of the terms, covenants and condiƟons of this Lease. Upon Breach of this Lease by Lessee, any such Inducement Provision shall automaƟcally be deemed deleted from this Lease and of no further force or effect, and any rent, other charge, bonus, inducement or consideraƟon theretofore abated, given or paid by Lessor under such an Inducement Provision shall be immediately due and payable by Lessee to Lessor, notwithstanding any subsequent cure ofsaid Breach by Lessee. The acceptance by Lessor of rent or the cure of the Breach which iniƟated the operaƟon of this paragraph shall not be deemed a waiver by Lessor of the provisions of this paragraph unless specifically so stated in wriƟng by Lessor at the Ɵme of such acceptance.

13.4 Late Charges. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee of Rent will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costsinclude, but are not limited to, processing and accounƟng charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon Lessor by any Lender. Accordingly, if any Rent shall not be received by Lessor within 5 days aŌer such amountshall be due, then, without any requirement for noƟce to Lessee, Lessee shall immediately pay to Lessor a one-Ɵme late charge equal to 10% of each such overdue amount or $100, whichever is greater. The ParƟes hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable esƟmate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason ofsuch late payment.

Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event consƟtute a waiver of Lessee's Default or Breach with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. In the event that a late charge is payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for 3 consecuƟve installments of Base Rent, then notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Base Rent shall, at Lessor's opƟon, become due and payable quarterly in advance.

13.5 Interest. Any monetary payment due Lessor hereunder, other than late charges, not received by Lessor, when due shall bear interest from the 31st day aŌer it was due. The interest ("Interest") charged shall be computed at the rate of 10% per annum but shall not exceed the maximum rate allowed by law. Interest is payable in addiƟon to the potenƟal late charge provided for in Paragraph 13.4.

13.6 Breach by Lessor.
(a) NoƟce of Breach. Lessor shall not be deemed in breach of this Lease unless Lessor fails within a reasonable Ɵme to perform an obligaƟon required to be performed by Lessor. For purposes of this Paragraph, a reasonable Ɵme shall in no event be less than 30 days aŌer receipt by Lessor, and any Lender whose name and address shall have been furnished to Lessee in wriƟng for such purpose, of wriƩen noƟce specifying wherein such obligaƟon of Lessor has not been performed; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor's obligaƟon issuch that more than 30 days are reasonably required for its performance, then Lessor shall not be in breach if performance is commenced within such 30 day period and thereaŌer diligently pursued to compleƟon. (b) Performance by Lessee on Behalf of Lessor. In the event that neither Lessor nor Lender cures said breach within 30 days aŌer receipt of said noƟce, or if having commenced said cure they do not diligently pursue it to compleƟon, then Lessee may elect to cure said breach at Lessee's expense and offset from Rent the actual and reasonable cost to perform such cure, provided however, that such offset shall not exceed an amount equal to the greater of one month's Base Rent or the Security Deposit, reserving Lessee'sright to seek reimbursement from Lessor for any such expense in excess of such offset. Lessee shall document the cost ofsaid cure and supply said documentaƟon to Lessor.

14. CondemnaƟon. If the Premises or any porƟon thereof are taken under the power of eminent domain or sold under the threat of the exercise of said power (collecƟvely "CondemnaƟon"), this Lease shall terminate as to the part taken as of the date the condemning authority takes Ɵtle or possession, whichever first occurs.

If more than 10% of the Building, or more than 25% of that porƟon of the Premises not occupied by any building, istaken by CondemnaƟon, Lessee may, at Lessee's opƟon, to be exercised in wriƟng within 10 days aŌer Lessor shall have given Lessee wriƩen noƟce of such taking (or in the absence ofsuch noƟce, within 10 days aŌer the condemning authority shall have taken possession) terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Lessee does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect asto the porƟon of the Premises remaining, except that the Base Rentshall be reduced in proporƟon to the reducƟon in uƟlity of the Premises caused by such CondemnaƟon. CondemnaƟon awards and/or payments shall be the property of Lessor, whether such award shall be made as compensaƟon for diminuƟon in value of the leasehold, the value of the part taken, or for severance damages; provided, however, that Lessee shall be enƟtled to any compensaƟon paid by the condemnor for Lessee'srelocaƟon expenses, loss of business goodwill and/or Trade Fixtures, without regard to whether or not this Lease is terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph. All AlteraƟons and UƟlity InstallaƟons made to the Premises by Lessee, for purposes of CondemnaƟon only, shall be considered the property of the Lessee and Lessee shall be enƟtled to any and all compensaƟon which is payable therefor. In the event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of the CondemnaƟon, Lessor shall repair any damage to the Premises caused by such CondemnaƟon.

15. Brokerage Fees.

15.1 AddiƟonal Commission. In addiƟon to the payments owed pursuant to Paragraph 1.9 above, Lessor agrees that: (a) if Lessee exercises any OpƟon, (b) if Lessee or anyone affiliated with Lessee acquires any rights to the Premises or other premises owned by Lessor and located within the same Project, if any, within which the Premisesis located, (c) if Lessee remains in possession of the Premises, with the consent of Lessor, aŌer the expiraƟon of this Lease, or (d) if Base Rent is increased, whether by agreement or operaƟon of an escalaƟon clause herein, then, Lessor shall pay Brokers a fee in accordance with the fee schedule of the Brokers in effect at the Ɵme the Lease was executed. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to supersede the provisions of any earlier agreement to the contrary.

15.2 AssumpƟon of ObligaƟons. Any buyer or transferee of Lessor'sinterest in this Lease shall be deemed to have assumed Lessor's obligaƟon hereunder.

Brokersshall be third party beneficiaries of the provisions of Paragraphs 1.9, 15, 22 and 31. If Lessor failsto pay to Brokers any amounts due as and for brokerage fees pertaining to this Lease when due, then such amounts shall accrue Interest. In addiƟon, if Lessor failsto pay any amountsto Lessee's Broker when due, Lessee's Broker may send wriƩen noƟce to Lessor and Lessee of such failure and if Lessor fails to pay such amounts within 10 days aŌer said noƟce, Lessee shall pay said monies to its Broker and offset such amounts against Rent. In addiƟon, Lessee's Broker shall be deemed to be a third party beneficiary of any commission agreement entered into by and/or between Lessor and Lessor's Broker for the limited purpose of collecƟng any brokerage fee owed.

15.3 RepresentaƟons and IndemniƟes of Broker RelaƟonships. Lessee and Lessor each represent and warrant to the other that it has had no dealings with any person, firm, broker, agent or finder (other than the Brokers and Agents, if any) in connecƟon with this Lease, and that no one other than said named Brokers and Agentsis enƟtled to any commission or finder's fee in connecƟon herewith. Lessee and Lessor do each hereby agree to indemnify, protect, defend and hold the other harmless from and against liability for compensaƟon or charges which may be claimed by any such unnamed broker, finder or other similar party by reason of any dealings or acƟons of the indemnifying Party, including any costs, expenses, aƩorneys' feesreasonably incurred with respect thereto. 1814

16. Estoppel CerƟficates.
(a) Each Party (as "Responding Party") shall within 10 days aŌer wriƩen noƟce from the other Party (the "RequesƟng Party") execute, acknowledge and deliver to the RequesƟng Party a statement in wriƟng in form similar to the then most current "Estoppel CerƟficate" form published by AIR CRE, plus such addiƟonal informaƟon, confirmaƟon and/or statements as may be reasonably requested by the RequesƟng Party. (b) If the Responding Party shall failto execute or deliver the Estoppel CerƟficate within such 10 day period, the RequesƟng Party may execute an Estoppel CerƟficate staƟng that: (i) the Lease isin full force and effect without modificaƟon except as may be represented by the RequesƟng Party, (ii) there are no uncured defaults in the RequesƟng Party's performance, and (iii) if Lessor isthe RequesƟng Party, not more than one month's rent has been paid in advance.

ProspecƟve purchasers and encumbrancers may rely upon the RequesƟng Party's Estoppel CerƟficate, and the Responding Party shall be estopped from denying the truth of the facts contained in said CerƟficate. In addiƟon, Lessee acknowledges that any failure on its part to provide such an Estoppel CerƟficate will expose Lessor to risks and potenƟally cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the extent of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, should the Lessee fail to execute and/or deliver a requested Estoppel CerƟficate in a Ɵmely fashion the monthly Base Rentshall be automaƟcally increased, without any requirement for noƟce to Lessee, by an amount equal to 10% of the then exisƟng Base Rent or $100, whichever is greater for remainder of the Lease. The ParƟes agree that such increase in Base Rent represents fair and reasonable compensaƟon for the addiƟonal risk/costs that Lessor will incur by reason of Lessee's failure to provide the Estoppel CerƟficate. Such increase in Base Rentshall in no event consƟtute a waiver of Lessee's Default or Breach with respect to the failure to provide the Estoppel CerƟficate nor prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. (c) If Lessor desiresto finance, refinance, or sell the Premises, or any part thereof, Lessee and all Guarantorsshall within 10 days aŌer wriƩen noƟce from Lessor deliver to any potenƟal lender or purchaser designated by Lessor such financial statements as may be reasonably required by such lender or purchaser, including but not limited to Lessee's financial statementsfor the past 3 years. Allsuch financial statementsshall be received by Lessor and such lender or purchaser in confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth.

17. DefiniƟon of Lessor. The term "Lessor" as used herein shall mean the owner or owners at the Ɵme in quesƟon of the fee Ɵtle to the Premises, or, if thisis a sublease, of the Lessee's interest in the prior lease. In the event of a transfer of Lessor's Ɵtle or interest in the Premises orthis Lease, Lessor shall deliver to the transferee or assignee (in cash or by credit) any unused Security Deposit held by Lessor. Upon such transfer or assignment and delivery of the Security Deposit, as aforesaid, the prior Lessor shall be relieved of all liability with respect to the obligaƟons and/or covenants under this Lease thereaŌer to be performed by the Lessor.

Subject to the foregoing, the obligaƟons and/or covenants in this Lease to be performed by the Lessor shall be binding only upon the Lessor as hereinabove defined.

18. Severability. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease, as determined by a court of competent jurisdicƟon, shall in no way affect the validity of any other provision hereof.

19. Days. Unless otherwise specifically indicated to the contrary, the word "days" as used in this Lease shall mean and refer to calendar days.

20. LimitaƟon on Liability. The obligaƟons of Lessor under this Lease shall not consƟtute personal obligaƟons of Lessor, or its partners, members, directors, officers or shareholders, and Lessee shall look to the Premises, and to no other assets of Lessor, for the saƟsfacƟon of any liability of Lessor with respect to this Lease, and shall not seek recourse against Lessor's partners, members, directors, officers or shareholders, or any of their personal assetsfor such saƟsfacƟon.

Lessor's consent to, or approval of, any actshall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Lessor's consent to, or approval of, any subsequent or similar act by Lessee, or be construed as the basis of an estoppel to enforce the provision or provisions of this Lease requiring such consent. (b) The acceptance of Rent by Lessor shall not be a waiver of any Default or Breach by Lessee.

25. Disclosures Regarding The Nature of a Real Estate Agency RelaƟonship. (a) When entering into a discussion with a real estate agent regarding a real estate transacƟon, a Lessor or Lessee should from the outset understand 1815
what type of agency relaƟonship or representaƟon it has with the agent or agents in the transacƟon. Lessor and Lessee acknowledge being advised by the Brokers in thistransacƟon, asfollows:
(i) Lessor's Agent. A Lessor's agent under a lisƟng agreement with the Lessor acts as the agent for the Lessor only. A Lessor's agent or subagent hasthe following affirmaƟve obligaƟons: To the Lessor: A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Lessor. To the Lessee and the Lessor: (a) Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and care in performance of the agent's duƟes. (b) A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith. (c) A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecƟng the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent aƩenƟon and observaƟon of, the ParƟes. An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidenƟal informaƟon obtained from the other Party which does not involve the affirmaƟve duƟes set forth above.
(ii) Lessee's Agent. An agent can agree to act as agent for the Lessee only. In these situaƟons, the agent is not the Lessor's agent, even if by agreement the agent may receive compensaƟon for servicesrendered, either in full or in part from the Lessor. An agent acƟng only for a Lessee hasthe following affirmaƟve obligaƟons. To the Lessee: A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Lessee. To the Lessee and the Lessor: (a) Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and care in performance of the agent's duƟes. (b) A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith. (c) A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecƟng the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent aƩenƟon and observaƟon of, the ParƟes.

An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidenƟal informaƟon obtained from the other Party which does not involve the affirmaƟve duƟesset forth above.
(iii) Agent RepresenƟng Both Lessor and Lessee. A real estate agent, either acƟng directly or through one or more associate licensees, can legally be the agent of both the Lessor and the Lessee in a transacƟon, but only with the knowledge and consent of both the Lessor and the Lessee. In a dual agency situaƟon, the agent has the following affirmaƟve obligaƟons to both the Lessor and the Lessee: (a) A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty and loyalty in the dealings with either Lessor or the Lessee. (b) Other duƟesto the Lessor and the Lessee asstated above in subparagraphs (i) or (ii). In represenƟng both Lessor and Lessee, the agent may not, without the express permission of the respecƟve Party, disclose to the other Party confidenƟal informaƟon, including, but not limited to, facts relaƟng to either Lessee's or Lessor's financial posiƟon, moƟvaƟons, bargaining posiƟon, or other personal informaƟon that may impact rent, including Lessor's willingness to accept a rent less than the lisƟng rent or Lessee's willingness to pay rent greater than the rent offered. The above duƟes of the agent in a real estate transacƟon do not relieve a Lessor or Lessee from the responsibility to protect their own interests. Lessor and Lessee should carefully read all agreements to assure that they adequately express their understanding of the transacƟon. A real estate agent is a person qualified to advise about real estate. If legal or tax advice is desired, consult a competent professional. Both Lessor and Lessee should strongly consider obtaining tax advice from a competent professional because the federal and state tax consequences of a transacƟon can be complex and subject to change.

The ParƟes agree that no lawsuit or other legal proceeding involving any breach of duty, error or omission relaƟng to this Lease may be brought against Broker more than one year aŌer the Start Date and that the liability (including court costs and aƩorneys' fees), of any Broker with respect to any such lawsuit and/or legal proceeding shall not exceed the fee received by such Broker pursuant to this Lease; provided, however, that the foregoing limitaƟon on each Broker's liability shall not be applicable to any gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Broker.

At or prior to the expiraƟon or terminaƟon of this Lease Lessee shall deliver exclusive possession of the Premisesto Lessor. For purposes of this provision and Paragraph

13.1(a), exclusive possession shall mean that Lessee shall have vacated the Premises, removed all of its personal property therefrom and that the Premises have been returned in the condiƟon specified in this Lease. In the event that Lessee does not deliver exclusive possession to Lessor asspecified above, then Lessor's damages during any holdover period shall be computed at the amount of the Rent (as defined in Paragraph 4.1) due during the last full month before the expiraƟon or terminaƟon of this Lease (disregarding any temporary abatement of Rent that may have been in effect), but with Base Rent being 150% of the Base Rent payable during such last full month. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as consent by Lessor to any holding over by Lessee.

Lessee agrees that the holders of any such Security Devices (in this Lease together referred to as "Lender") shall have no liability or obligaƟon to perform any of the obligaƟons of Lessor under this Lease.

CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE

Meeting Date: June 18, 2024 Agenda Item: 11L.

CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION AWARDING A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT TO WYNNE CRE, INC. FOR THE LEASE OF 1030 CALLE NEGOCIO (APN – 688 ..body-142-35) AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE AGREEMENT Fiscal Impact:

Fee in the form of commission not to exceed 6% of total rent for the length of the lease term.

Summary:

The commercial building located at 1030 Calle Negocio in the Rancho San Clemente business park was previously rented to Family Assistance Ministries (FAM). As of April 30 2024, the building has been vacant and the City has expressed interest in contracting with a commercial real estate firm to market the property to prospective tenants and assist in negotiations for a multi-year lease. Before the City Council is the approval of a professional services agreement with Wynne CRE, INC. (“WynneCRE”), a local firm, for these services.

Background:

At the July 19, 2022 City Council meeting, a final building lease extension was granted by the City Council, amending the agreement with FAM through April 30 2024. During that period, the rental rate agreed upon was $6,890 and not to exceed $10,000 per month, below the market rate of comparable properties leasing in the area. The building is no longer occupied by FAM and the City is looking to enter into a new lease with a qualified lessee.

Discussion:

To better leverage the City’s property, use and financial investment, staff recommends the assistance of a local commercial real estate consulting firm. A qualified real estate firm will provide services to properly analyze the property, provide a comparable market analysis to develop a current market lease value, and market the property to solicit fair-market lease proposals for future City Council approval, on behalf of the City.

Pursuant to City Policy 201-2-3, City staff conducted a Request For Proposals to facilitate the selection of a professional services contractor to carry out these services and sought out local commercial real estate consultants. After careful consideration of all proposals submitted, including interviews with two of the firms, staff determined that the proposal submitted by WynneCRE was the most advantageous to the City for this particular project. This decision was based on the combination of various factors, including experience of the firm, demonstration of the quality of the services provided, understanding of the project, proposed timeline of the project, and cost (which is fair and reasonable).

CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE 2
Environmental Review/Analysis:

Not a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378 (14 CCR 15378). Entering into a contract with a professional services contractor to lease a City owned building has no potential result in either a direct or physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

Council Options:
 Adopt Resolution No. 24-102, which approves the Professional Services Agreement with WynneCRE (Attachment 2).
 Modify and adopt Resolution No. 24-102.
 Continue the item and direct staff to provide additional information.  Deny Resolution No. 24-102, which will result in the City not obtaining the services of a qualified real estate firm to market the property for lease.

Recommended Actions:

Staff Recommendation ..recommendation
City staff recommends that the City Council Adopt Resolution No. 24-102 (Attachment 1) to do the following:

1. Approve the Professional Services Agreement, provided as Attachment 2, for Commercial Real Estate Consulting services with WynneCRE; and

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the Professional Services Agreement with WynneCRE for a fee in the form of commission not to exceed 6% of total rent for the length of the lease term.

CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION AWARDING TWO PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENTS TO

LAZ PARKING CALIFORNIA LLC FOR TROLLEY OPERATION SERVICES, AUTHORIZING THE CITY

MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE AGREEMENTS IN A COMBINED AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $2,416,757.88 FOR THREE YEARS AND FINDING THE PROJECT STATUTORILY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMEN ..body TAL QUALITY ACT
Fiscal Impact:

The proposed three year contracts are for a total of $2,416,757.88, of which, the Red and Blue Line costs are $1,871,665.80, and the Green Line cost is $545,092.08. The services for the Trolley Program is funded from the Transit Fund that includes a 90% grant from OCTA. There is currently $592,850 in revenue in FY 2024/25 with an anticipated cost of $781,915.50. The proposed contracts also include two (2) one-year renewal options.

The City is currently anticipating additional funding in FY 2024/25 and in future years from Project V Grant for additional lines of service and operating dates. OCTA anticipates finalization of the new Project V Grant approval in August 2024. It is anticipated that the City will receive new grant funds for expansion of the Trolley Program for other services such as a daily Green Line for the southerly area of the City for the Summer season from July 1 through September 30. The City has requested the new grant reimburse the City for the Green Line Summer 2024 season. Since the 2024 Project V Grant has not been finalized, there is a chance that reimbursement for the Trolley Program will not be funded as expected. If additional funding is not adequate, staff will return to the City Council to consider other funding options or revisions to service levels. The proposed contracts allow the City to withdraw or reduce service if needed.

Summary:

Before the City Council is the approval of two Professional Services Agreements between LAZ Parking California LLC for Trolley Operation Services. Due to the delayed timing by OCTA for the 2024 Project V Grant funding award it may necessitate unanticipated changes to the funding for Trolley Operation Services. It is expected that once OCTA grant funding is determined (approximately August 2024) staff will return to Council with the final grant acceptance for the new 2024 Project V Grant funding, and address any necessary changes to the Trolley Program if grant funding is not fully received as expected.

Background:

The City Trolley Program is funded through a Project V Grant from the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA). OCTA reimburses the City for 90% of operational costs within the allotted annual grant amounts. The standard schedule of services in the Grant Agreement 1856
Meeting Date: June 18, 2024 Agenda Item: 11M.

CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE 2
provides for daily trolley operations between Memorial Day weekend and the final weekend in September on both the Red Line (downtown) and Blue Line (Dana Point). The City has recently submitted a letter to OCTA through the “Semi-Annual Review” process requesting weekend service on the Red Line year-round for FY 2024. If approved, the grant will also fund Green Line operations.

The current contract with LAZ Parking is set to expire on June 30, 2024. Pursuant to City Policy 201-2-3, Staff conducted a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Trolley Operation Services on May 14, 2024 through PlanetBids. Staff advertised a Request for Proposals (RFP) to qualified transportation service contractors to provide trolley operations services for the period of three years commencing July 1, 2024, with the option, at the City's sole discretion, to award two additional years upon successful demonstration of exemplary contract performance.

On May 28, 2024, the City received proposals from two (2) vendors: LAZ Parking California, LLC (LAZ Parking) and Parking Concepts Inc., dba Transportation Concepts (TC). Neither company are considered a local, San Clemente based company and staff is unaware of a local business qualified to perform these services.

After careful consideration and evaluation, Staff found LAZ Parking the highest-ranked firm.

Among the two proposals received, LAZ Parking demonstrated superior expertise in San Clemente and the City’s trolley system, extensive knowledge in Orange Country and exceptional ability working alongside OCTA to provide accurate data analysis required for Project V reporting.

In addition, LAZ Parking is currently the provider for all the surrounding Orange County trolley programs including Dana Point, Laguna Niguel, Laguna Beach, San Juan Capistrano and Newport Beach.

Staff’s recommendation is based on the combination of various factors including technical expertise, methodology and work plan, project experience, staff qualifications, delivery schedule, quality control, local knowledge and cost. Staff recommends the contract be awarded to LAZ Parking.

The cost summary for each potential vendor was as follows:

Staff is proposing two separate Professional Service Agreements with LAZ Parking so that the Green Line operations can be tracked and invoiced for OCTA’s consideration. This will also help in the event that the new OCTA Project V Grant does not fund the Green Line operations at a 90% reimbursement rate as expected.

Council Options:
 Consider adopting Resolution No. 24-103, which would approve the Professional Services Agreements with LAZ Parking for Trolley Operation Services and find the project statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).  Modify and adopt Resolution No. 24-103.
 Continue the Item and provide Staff with alternative direction. Please note, continuation of this Item would result in no active Trolley Program operations contract on July 1, and may result in interruption of trolley services until a new contract could be considered. 1858

11 55452.01100\31193624.5
Consultant shall perform the following services for the City and such additional services as the City requests in connection with the Project (collectively, the “Services”):

A. GENERAL INFORMATION
The Consultant will provide high quality, transportation operations service of the trolleys and timely expertise where needed. The scope of services for the trolley operation services includes supplying properly licensed and experienced drivers to operate the trollies, inspection of the trollies, providing insurance to cover the trollies and the trolley drivers. The City has on-site trolley maintenance, trolley washing, and fuel at the City Yard that can be used for trolley operation services by the Consultant.

The Consultant will fuel the trolley vehicles using City fuel tanks located in the City Yard near the trolley route. The City has the auditing process and reporting needed to track the trolley fueling. The fuel costs, trolley maintenance and washing will not be included in the Consultant’s operation cost per hour per vehicle.

Since OCTA is providing the grant funds, the following requirements apply:
 Separate and distinct operating hours and cost must be provided in the detail and as requested by the City, OCTA, and Federal Transit Administration, e.g., revenue vehicle hours, total boardings, boardings per revenue hour, operating costs, etc.

These records are to be provided monthly to the City.
 Allow inspection and audit of records.
 Operator shall indemnify City against liability for operation.  Termination for convenience within 60 days written notice.  Compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and licenses.  Meet all ADA accessibility requirements.

Operators will record the number of users at each stop, vehicle hours, and other necessary reporting, separated by service, necessary to meet National Transit Database reporting.

The trolley service will be free for riders. Consultant shall provide a smartphone trolley tracker app for use on iPhone and Android platforms.

The Consultant shall be entitled to request an annual fee adjustment which is to be no greater than the United States Consumer Price Index (CPI) published by the Department of Industrial Relations for Southern California Region, commencing one year after execution of the Agreement.

The City and OCTA will require complete indemnification. By submitting a proposal, the Consultant agrees that the contents and requirements of the City’s Request for Proposals shall become part of the Agreement for this work, and that it accepts the terms thereof.

The City reserves the right to order a decrease or increase in the level of service such as removing or adding routes or stop locations at any given time.

Consultant understands and agrees that the City is currently in discussion with OCTA for additional lines of service and operating dates. Trolley operating lines, schedule, times, and days are subject to change at the City’s request. The City reserves the right to negotiate final cost and operating plans with the Consultant at any time.

Consultant shall also provide the ability to provide two (2) ADA accessible passenger shuttles 1873
12 55452.01100\31193624.5
and drivers for the operation of expanded service areas such as the 2023 “Green Line” transit service. The Green Line is expected to connect the San Clemente Pier to San Clemente State Beach. The City may alter the route or stops at its sole discretion. If the City is awarded the additional OCTA funds, the Green Line would likely be needed daily from July 1 through September.

B. ADMINISTRATION
Consultant shall be responsible for:

1. Identifying an On-site Manager who will oversee the proper operation and administration of all trolley services. The designated Manager must be available to the City at all times.

3.2.12.12 Enforcement of Agreement Provisions (non estoppel).

1878
55452.01100\31193624.5

3.2.12.13 Requirements Not Limiting. Requirement of specific coverage or minimum limits contained in this Appendix are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits, or other requirement, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance.

The City has the auditing process and reporting needed to track the trolley fueling. The fuel costs, trolley maintenance and washing will not be included in the Consultant’s operation cost per hour per vehicle.

Since OCTA is providing the grant funds, the following requirements apply:
 Separate and distinct operating hours and cost must be provided in the detail and as requested by the City, OCTA, and Federal Transit Administration, e.g., revenue vehicle hours, total boardings, boardings per revenue hour, operating costs, etc.

These records are to be provided monthly to the City.
 Allow inspection and audit of records.
 Operator shall indemnify City against liability for operation.  Termination for convenience within 60 days written notice.  Compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and licenses.  Meet all ADA accessibility requirements.

Operators will record the number of users at each stop, vehicle hours, and other necessary reporting, separated by service, necessary to meet National Transit Database reporting.

The trolley service will be free for riders. Consultant shall provide a smartphone trolley tracker app for use on iPhone and Android platforms.

The Consultant shall be entitled to request an annual fee adjustment which is to be no greater than the United States Consumer Price Index (CPI) published by the Department of Industrial Relations for Southern California Region, commencing one year after execution of the Agreement.

The City and OCTA will require complete indemnification. By submitting a proposal, the Consultant agrees that the contents and requirements of the City’s Request for Proposals shall become part of the Agreement for this work, and that it accepts the terms thereof.

Executive Summary | 2024 RFP 2

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This executive summary provides a concise overview of LAZ Transportation and our tailoredmade strategy, designed to enhance The City of San Clemente mobility experience. This plan includes identifying opportunities to streamline operations through technology and our decades of expertise serving similar municipalities.

LAZ is excited to present forward-thinking solutions that not only meet the requirements outlined in the request for proposal but also provide San Clemente industry-leading enhancements to the customer experience, while maintaining a reliable and innovative transportation operation.

We believe in the power of curiosity and collaboration, and we are confident that our proposal will set the stage for a mutually beneficial partnership. The following is a strategic roadmap that aligns with the University’s objectives and enhances operations.

LOCAL FOCUS, REGIONAL LEADERSHIP, NATIONAL SUPPORT. One of our key strengths is the ability to make decisions and manage operations on a local level, while calling on the operational expertise, financial support, and dedicated teams of our corporate office when needed. This ensures that clients receive boutique attention and a customized approach to their operation. We’re committed to making leadership available for regular meetings with the City.

COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO MOBILITY PLANNING. As a full-service mobility provider – encompising transportation, LAZ’s forward-thinking operational approach creates an efficient and accessible mobility ecosystem. This holistic planning methodology ensures that the transportation systems complement each other, creating a safe environment, establishing a seamless customer journey, and promoting planning efforts.

EMPLOYEE RETENTION & HIRING. We understand the challenge of hiring and retaining experienced and engaged staff. We have a dedicated group of Talent Acquisition Specialists who continuously recruit the best and the brightest. Additionally, as a people-first organization, we also promote from within, giving team members the opportunity to grow their careers with LAZ.
1907
Trolley Operations Services
Executive Summary | 2024 RFP 3
COMPREHENSIVE TECHNOLOGY PLATFORMS. We provide world-class technology platforms that manage passenger data, service performance, driver behavior, management engagement, safety compliance, fleet maintenance and asset longevity.

The platforms also offer cameras, passenger applications, and real time location of buses. The integration and tracking of service performance and key performance indicators allows for a transparent view of the service for all parties involved. A comprehensive suite of customized reports is a valuable tool for the successful management of the contract.

SYSTEMIC RISK MANAGEMENT APPROACH. As an organization with robust procedures, we have a comprehensive strategy to mitigate safety, financial, and reputational risks.

As a result of risk identification, scenario analysis, business continuity and disaster recovery planning. Collaboration, transparency, and continuous training, we ensure the stability of our operations through a reduced risk profile.

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, AND GOVERNANCE (ESG). LAZ launched its ESG program in 2022. Created to ensure that our employees have access to diversity programs, wellness initiatives, and operational excellence procedures. The program is designed to build value for our clients through DBE partnerships, multi-faceted facility use, & technology optimization.

DIVERSITY, EQUITY + INCLUSION (DE+I). Launched in 2020, LAZ’s DE+I program (See Attachment 1) is grounded in the belief that inclusive and supportive work environments attract top talent, foster innovation, and enhance employee engagement. Embracing DE+I reflects LAZ Transportation’s commitment to social responsibility and ethical leadership.

This collaborative effort will ensure that San Clemente has the resources of a proven, experienced mobility organization that can provide an operational approach. LAZ Transportation would welcome the chance to discuss our proposal in detail, addressing any questions or concerns, and work closely with the San Clemente to cultivate a mutually beneficial relationship. 1908

2. Project Understanding & Work plan | 2024 RFP 4

2. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING & WORK PLAN
A. San Clemente Project Specific Details
The City of San Clemente is the southernmost city in Orange County and known for its surf breaks, great summer weather and white sandy beaches. The booming city attracts tourism from many other cities in and outside of Orange County.

In 2017, the program started with three trolleys on the Red Line, and in subsequent years, two more trolleys were added to the service, becoming the Blue Line. LAZ proved to be an efficient partner complying with the OCTA ridership requirements as necessary for The City to receive reimbursements from OCTA via Project V. We provide ridership data to The City in various formats that were accepted by OCTA; which included: Ridership by Hour, Ridership by Vehicle, Ridership by Stop and average ridership per hour.

Our first year, the requirement was to maintain a minimum of 5 riders per hour and 10 riders the year after, which we met with no difficulty. The trolleys had an immediate benefit to The City, its visitors, businesses and the community from the start and the Trolley Program has grown into a vital program for the city, its residents, and visitors.

We added GPS tracking so that riders can have clear visibility of the location of each vehicle which results in an improved rider experience and easier trip planning.

In 2023, on a 10-day notice, LAZ was asked to provide two ADA shuttles and drivers to service a new route called the Green Line that ran seven days a week mirroring the red and blue routes.

LAZ has proven its flexibility to provide high quality service as requested by The City.

In our eight-year history we have never missed a trip and have no history of any major accidents or major complaints.

Every summer we are challenged with staffing the summer program and we have always met the operational needs and our contractual obligations. After COVID, staffing was especially 1909
Trolley Operations Services

2. Project Understanding & Work plan | 2024 RFP 5
difficult with a nationwide shortage of drivers and LAZ was again successful in recruiting qualified, professional drivers that met the expectations of The City and LAZ.

Part of this program's success can be attributed to the cohesiveness of the other Trolley Programs in the neighboring cities that LAZ also run. The fact that LAZ Parking also has those accounts translates to better service for our riders. Trips can be easily planned with a one-stopshop type program that unites the cities and their various communities. This cohesiveness also allows for our riders to get real time information throughout the South County cities that LAZ also operates.

Due to this cohesiveness, we aligned and synced schedules with Dana Point to reduce wait times.

LAZ is committed to continue providing services to the Red, Blue and Green Lines on the schedules provided by the city.

B. General Work Program / Core Competencies, Quality & Budget Control, Hiring Processes and Staffing Breakdown
Service Goals
Service Solutions
Service Expectations & Results
The general approach and plan for The City of San Clemente operation will be focused on our core operational competencies, which are the most important attributes to the success of our trolley operations. These competencies have three components that provide the foundation for a safe, effective, and efficient operations plan.
1910
Trolley Operations Services

2. Project Understanding & Work plan | 2024 RFP 6
Core Competency 1: Culture
Our most important asset is our people. Therefore, one of the most important components of the LAZ Transportation Trolley Operations Plan starts with the selection of the management team and all other team members. In the Employee Recruiting and Training Program section, we describe the hiring process, training programs, retention and building morale programs and benefit programs, with safety and service at the forefront of training and operations. To ensure that we are hiring and retaining the best employees, we have developed an extremely comprehensive program for employee recruitment, selection, training, motivation, and development. We will provide San Clemente with employees who will successfully perform their jobs. LAZ believes that it is critical for frontline employees to have strong communications skills, demonstrate professionalism and courtesy.

At LAZ, Customer Service is not just a buzz word; it is a total commitment to excellence that is woven into every area of the company’s operational methodology. From the way we hire & train our employees to how we maintain our modern fleet to compassionate treatment of our customers & clients, LAZ has always been “Driven to Excellence.”

1. The LAZ PACT
This LAZ PACT (Practicing Accountability Coaching and Training) is designed to assist all staff in making sound decisions and judgments while driving, or in the shuttle. In order to perform up to the standards of LAZ and our clients, the following material must be understood completely.

Vision
San Clemente is a unique account offering challenges;
however, these challenges offer an opportunity to grow
as an employee and as a person. While challenging,
working for San Clemente is a privilege, and it should be looked at as such.

Values
Respect, Commitment to People, Honesty, Integrity, and
Trust.

Practices
Sharp and On Time, Get 100% performance, and Clean &
Safe
Standards of Behavior
Actively looking for ways to help people, effectively communicate customer requests to prevent multiple/repeated requests from the customer, be efficient and organized, personalize the interaction in any way and engage the customer as individuals. Maintain a gracious tone and pace throughout the interaction, avoid slang and excessive use of phrase-fragments, make eye contact and keep focus on the customer. Save energy and time by taking less steps, create less 1911

2. Project Understanding & Work plan | 2024 RFP 7
stress by being in control of the situation and working proactively. Always smile, never, ever give up and before your shift, always be prepared (ABP) with the proper tools. We would work closely with you to ensure that the service LAZ is providing at the trolley operations is meeting or exceeding your goals to provide premier customer service through operational excellence.

2. General Hiring Process
Recruiting & Hiring Process
We understand that the service we provide begins and ends with our front-line employees and how well we train and support them. Therefore, the recruitment process is especially important to ensure we are hiring the team members that will make a difference.

Pre – Employment Process
LAZ has a comprehensive pre-employment screening program in place to make sure that only the most qualified candidates are chosen for employment. Pre-employment screening is an effective risk management tool that promotes a safe workplace by helping to limit the uncertainty inherent in the hiring process.

Current Hiring and local Process
Every summer, LAZ invests significant resources to retain the personnel already in this system.

Our initial and future recruiting efforts will focus on cultivating a workforce that represents the community it serves.

Background Checks
All candidates for employment, prior to receiving an employment offer, must successfully pass a criminal background check. Candidates must also pass a pre-employment drug test.

Third-Party Background Checks
LAZ uses the services of American Background Information Services, Inc., to perform background checks (including criminal record searches, credit history and motor vehicle record searches) on all prospective driver candidates. Screening of all management-level candidates, including supervisors, specifically covers criminal records, credit violations, motor vehicle driving infractions, educational credentials and prior employment.

Pre-Employment Drug Tests
Pre-employment drug testing is required of all candidates for employment.

Initial Feedback
An employee’s first 90 days are carefully monitored by the manager. The employee is shown an initial review, which addresses work habits, appearance, paperwork, customer contact and onthe-job performance. All new employees are given a comprehensive evaluation after 90 days. 1912
Trolley Operations Services

2. Project Understanding & Work plan | 2024 RFP 8
Orientation
LAZ provides a robust orientation and training program upon hire for employees that is listed in detail starting later on this page.

Post-Employment Education
LAZ also has a “Post-Employment Education” program which instructs line level employees and managers on developing skills necessary for advancement within the company. Formal classroom setting courses are offered, and employees must accumulate course credits to be considered for promotion. Examples of some of the courses that LAZ offers:
• GET 100
• Loss Prevention
• How to Become a Better Manager
• Property Safety
• Motivating Your Employees
• Time Management
• Effective Communication
• Business Ethics
Proactive Hiring & Continuous Hiring
Our local HR team is continuously recruiting and on-boarding to ensure staff fills any turnover.

This allows us to have a large pool of candidates readily available to fill shifts. This proactive strategy mitigates the risk of being short-staffed due to turnover.

3. Shuttle Specific Training Programs
All shuttle locations have an assigned driver trainer who is responsible for the training program.

This program was designed to be adapted to include the training requirements of each clients.

This training explicitly trains our staff in every aspect of safe driving. These are participatory, engaging sessions that include extensive materials for trainers (discussion guides, facilitator’s guides, etc.), a detailed instructor’s manual and driver workbooks for practice and comprehension. Quizzes and assessment tests are used to document performance and learning, and there is a thorough final driving evaluation. Based on assessment performance, drivers are entered into our full New Driver Training program which includes:
• 4 hours = Orientation
• 4 hours = Company-Specific Training
• 8-hours classroom = 4 hours Defensive Driving and 4 hours Safety Training • 24-40 hours = Behind the wheel driver training (depending on experience) LAZ understands the success of the City of San Clemente Trolley Service is highly dependent on the drivers effectiveness on their assigned routes. Therefore, in addition to the training outlined above, the drivers dispatched to the City’s service are required to complete route specific training. Providing this supplementary training ensures our drivers are prepared to handle challenges they may encounter while on route (i.e. traffic, closures, road incidents, etc.). 1913

Approach to Passenger Safety & Compliance with ADA Laws Our Recruiting Managers look for compassion as the number one trait in potential new employees, as we take the responsibility of providing excellent transportation service for our passengers very seriously. To ensure the safety of our passengers during transport, we utilize the strictest ADA standards in the industry for pre-screening and training of all our personnel.

Below are selected excerpts from our training and operations manual with regard to ADA compliance and wheelchair safety:

• Wheelchair Safety
• Lifting
• Alighting
• Maintenance of Accessible Features on Vehicles
• Safety Monitoring
In-Service Training
During the latter portion of training, trainees drive the trolley routes and are expected to follow the same procedures as graduated Drivers. This includes, at minimum, driving under the immediate supervision of a Behind the Wheel trainer. This provides the new driver the opportunity to experience customers, maintain a schedule, with an experienced Driver on-board to assist and evaluate. Trainees are tested frequently on their knowledge of operational policies and procedures.

Training Documentation
LAZ requires the Training Manager to be responsible for maintaining proper documentation of the training received by each employee and the satisfactory completion of each module. The training log will be the source document used to record trainee attendance, hours of instruction and coursework completion. A training certificate is presented to each successful trainee with a copy of the certificate going into the employee’s record.

First Year Training and Refresher Training
The training program does not end with the last day of the training schedule. As part of the company training program, LAZ has instituted Driver safety monitoring to measure the success of our training program and to determine the need for further training in specific areas. Safety monitoring of drivers is accomplished by supervisors who ride along with the driver and monitor their safety habits. All drivers are evaluated at least once during their first six months of employment. Each employee meets annually with a management employee to review performance and discuss potential improvements to the operations.

4. Service Level Monitoring & Customer Feedback
We empower all staff to handle consumer service problems. Responsibility for consumer feedback is in the duty statement of all employees, supervisors & management. The General Manager or their designee reviews all customer feedback, resolutions & any unresolved problems. Customer feedback can be provided to us in a variety of ways: Our Website, Customer Feedback card, Customer Service Hotline, Suggestion Boxes and In Person at our management office.

All employees are expected to listen courteously to customers’ feedback and concerns and do what they can to correct the deficiencies. When an employee receives customer feedback, regardless of its nature a “Customer Feedback Form” should be initiated. If the employee is able to resolve the matter, then the “Customer Feedback Form” should be completed & given to the Supervisor or manager on duty for review & follow-up.
1915
Trolley Operations Services

2. Project Understanding & Work plan | 2024 RFP 11
Where employees are unable to resolve the problem, they ask the customer if they would like to speak with a supervisor or manager on duty to further assist them with their concerns. If the customer says no, the employee continues to try & resolve the problem. If the customer says yes, the employee immediately contacts a supervisor or manager on duty to expedite the matter & informs the customer that <name>, who is <position> at LAZ will be assisting them further with their concerns.

The “Customer Feedback Form” is then passed to the attending supervisor or manager for review & completion. If a supervisor or manager is not immediately available the employee will notify the customer that <name>, who is <position at LAZ> & is responsible for customer service concerns, will contact them within 24 hours to discuss their concerns. The employee will place the “Customer Feedback Form” in the designated mailbox to be followed up immediately by the supervisor or manager once they become available. All “Customer Feedback Forms regardless of status will be passed to the operations manager no later than 48 hours after initiation. The operations manager will review & follow-up when necessary.

Secret Shopper Service
Trendsource, our third party “Secret Shopper Service,” audits the trolley experience and evaluates each of our operations. The shopper evaluates the ticketing procedure and tickets themselves, the cashier in terms of appearance and customer service, and the cleanliness of the facility. A report is generated and sent to Senior Management who then pulls the ticket to ensure proper ticketing procedures were followed and the transaction was accurate. Based on the other aspects of the shopper’s report any necessary actions should be taken. Some of the highlights of our mystery shopping service include ratings for: Greeting, Eye Contact, Name Recognition, Impressing the Rider, Pick Up / Drop Off Times, Driving Habits, Claims Prevention, Appearance and Professionalism, Safety and Security and Cleanliness of trolleys. We will share all results with San Clemente. This allows us consistent feedback which in turn leads to Outstanding Performance. The unbiased feedback we receive through this program also enables us to recognize our People & Reward them for providing exemplary Service.

Customer Surveys
While the City uses their own survey as approved by OCTA, we usually do customer surveys as well. We developed it using best practices in the transportation industry, as well as other service industries. We’re happy to provide additional surveys if requested.

Online Complaint Process
Customers can also report a concern online at our website at: www.lazparking.com. LAZ views customer complaints or issues as an opportunity to “exceed our clients’ & customers’ expectations.” While we constantly try to keep customer complaints to a minimum, it is not possible to interact with the public hundreds or thousands of times each day and not have an occasional unfortunate issue arise. All complaints are recorded in an operational logbook which is available for review by our management and client at any time. This logbook serves as an aid to management that allows for identification of any recurring complaints in order to implement a more lasting solution or develop additional training programs for the staff in order to mitigate similar issues that may occur in the future.

Patron Claims and Complaints
We promptly investigate and resolve all claims and complaints about service, damage, accidents, etc. We will furnish the City with a copy of the complaint or claim, documentation of its investigation, and a written response resolving the complaint or claim. Maintain a computer database of compliments, complaints and claims that shall be made available to the City upon request. Our Quality Assurance Database collects detailed information while providing many advantages over manual systems. From the database, we can generate reports, transfer reports to management electronically, trigger automatic follow-ups, collect statistical information, track action taken, etc. allows us to monitor our progress of training customers & employees in equipment use so we can determine & schedule staffing levels accurately. We maintain all complaints or issues related to the transportation operation in the Database for a period of three years or as otherwise may be requested Client. This database allows LAZ to monitor our progress in training customers & employees in equipment use so we can determine & schedule staffing levels accurately. We would work with San Clemente to put together a customized customer complaint resolution process that will include electronically trackable communication with all complaints within a defined timeframe.

5. Employee Motivation & Recognition
Our people-first mindset and service-focused philosophy differentiates us from other transportation companies. LAZ 's continued growth, success and service to our clients are the result of living this mission. We call all of this "The LAZ Way" and it includes our mission, our values, and our daily practices. At LAZ, investing in our employees is one of our highest priorities, including motivation tools such as LAZ Connected, a seasonal company newsletter, company parties, bonus structures and other morale boosting programs. These programs are constantly evolving and are imperative in motivating employees to deliver the highest level of service to your customers.

LAZ “Rave” Program
On our weekly regional operations conference call, each region highlights any employee who stands out for their overall dedication or for a specific achievement. These individuals are sent a “RAVE Card” that is personally signed by the LAZ management staff. RAVE stands for Recognizing Acts of Value & Excellence.

Employee Wellness Programs
LAZ promotes a caring culture and places tremendous emphasis on being able to deliver the following employee programs: Health and Wellness, LAZ Charitable Foundation, Gym Membership Discounts, AT&T LAZ Employee Friends & Family discount and several others.

Incentive Programs
This is of critical importance to boost employee morale — excellent performance is rewarded.

Our recommended employee incentive program works like this: In order to qualify for the employee incentive program, you must work 20 hours per week, for at least 4 months.

Employees are evaluated on absences, punctuality, teamwork, uniforms, cleanliness, accuracy of paperwork, customer service and friendliness and overage/ shortages. Each employee would receive the appropriate bonus based on the total points earned during the period. Points will be given during the specific time period of the program (usually monitored every quarter or 6 months and awarded quarterly or every 6 months) for the following: • Zero Absences = 20 points, Accuracy of paperwork = 10 points, Customer letter or e-mail = 15 points, Zero overage/shortage = 15 points, 100% punctual = 15 points, No write ups = 10 points, Uniform = 10 points, Area/Shuttle Cleanliness = 5 points Point Scale & Reward: 95–100 points = $100 and 89–94 points = $50.

Core Competency 2: Performance
LAZ provides trolley services in a safe, passenger-focused and very efficient and friendly manner. We ensure that the following methods, programs and initiatives are deployed to ensure safe and on time delivery of passengers, as well as delivering stellar customer service for every ride. LAZ provides a comprehensive telematics approach to our service. Our technology platform addresses various key elements in one solution as summarized below.

Monitoring Efficiency, Reporting, Creating a Positive
Customer Experience
The vehicles currently operating on the City of San Clemente Trolley Service utilize Transloc Technologies as the GPS system. Starting in year two of the contract, LAZ proposes to replace Transloc with the systems outlined below. We believe converting to Passio Technologies will enhance the rider experience while still providing all the necessary reports the City needs to comply with the requirements of OCTA.

LAZ proposes to use state-of-the-art GPS tracking systems Samsara and Passio to monitor trolley location, passenger load, and minute-by-minute demand to determine the proper number of trolley required. In addition to this ongoing evaluation, data will be used to project the 1918
Trolley Operations Services

2. Project Understanding & Work plan | 2024 RFP 14
scheduling needs for each week, day and hour, so that staffing – and ultimately costs – can be monitored for efficiency and controlled. This program for trolley GPS tracking not only allows for real time monitoring and dispatching, but it also adds to the passenger’s customer experience.

Samsara
Samsara is a best-in-class telematics company known worldwide for providing an advanced allin-one telematics solution that goes beyond basic GPS tracking. The chart below is a snapshot of the offerings that can be leveraged through the installation of Samsara Technology.

In addition to the above comprehensive snapshot, and even more important, is the unique driver behavior monitoring feature of the Samsara technology. This technology includes a vehicle gateway that provides a Dual-Facing AI Dash Cam, CM32. With live scene analysis, the CM32 is purpose-built to reduce high-risk behaviors, like distracted driving and unsafe acts, lower safetyrelated and claims costs, and provide deep visibility into fleet operations. The CM32 automatically uploads HD video footage to the Samsara Cloud allowing our Safety and Management Team to analyze driver behavior and road conditions in real-time, providing unprecedented visibility into leading causes of preventable accidents. This tool can be used in coaching driver behaviors, rewarding employees for a job well done, and assisting in accident fault determination.

Real-time Vehicle Locating and Passenger Counting – Passio GO Mobile Passio GO offers a mobile app designed to be intuitive and user-friendly. For users wishing to take advantage of features like “where’s my bus” or destination planning, the app will provide hints and guidance tools to make the app easy to use. The GPS data is updated I real time, typically every second or so. Also included with the Passio Go solution will be Wi-fi availability to the riders.

The public facing real-time location of vehicles, stops and routes can be accessible from a smartphone, PC, or tablet.

The mobile app has the following features:
• Geo-location button on the home screen allows GPS enabled smart devices to orient the users’ location to the map view • Option to select all, some or one route (Green, Red, Black Lines)
• Option to select individual stops on the different routes • Smooth and steady real time vehicle location processed through the applications algorithm
• Customizable with easy access to saved routes and stops The Passio GO app will allow us to send alerts and announcements to the City’s ridership. Alerts will be displayed above the map and do not require any action by the user. Announcements are indicated on the app by a red message button at the bottom of the home screen. Users need to tap the indicator to view the announcement.

Passenger Counting
The Automatic Passenger Counting (APC) is fully
automated with startup beginning with vehicle
ignition. The system accurately counts passengers as
they board and alight and registers stops, routes, and
runs. It distinguishes between passengers and nonpassenger objects and can detect double backs and re-crossings. Its accuracy is 98% allowing the drivers
for the City to focus on Safety and customer service
while providing data to City Management.

APC record-level detail is stored for a minimum of 36
months and provides count information at the base
level which allows for time and individual bus and
driver reporting at the stop level. Beyond those 36
months, the data will be available in a format of route, day and passenger level. Dynamic reporting of the
data will be available for up to five (5) years. After that, all data will be made available electronically.

LAZ Business Intelligence
An example of data reporting
that can be customized through
the LAZ Business Intelligence
Department is Performance
Audit – Secret Shops.

Each of the above examples
was taken from current LAZ
shuttle operations. They are just
a selection of data that can be
captured in report or dashboard
form. Based on the needs of the
San Clemente, LAZ is confident
through either the Passio or
Samsara technology or our
Business Intelligence Department, that we can meet all the reporting requirements of the San Clemente.

LAZ Customer Service Metrics: Surveys & Secret Shoppers LAZ is committed to providing the highest level
of customer service and quality programs. We
believe that setting relevant, important, and
meaningful Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s)
are critical to sustaining high levels of service
and articulating our success to our clients. LAZ
believes in a balanced scorecard approach to
ensure that we are delivering (and measuring)
all aspects of our business, Quality, Service,
People, and Financial.

These are just a few of the Key Performance
Indicators that we can report to our clients. A
detailed list can be developed in partnership
with our clients and can be customized to be
site-specific.

LAZ understands that customer service is one of the most important aspects of trolley operations. First and foremost, all our personnel will be trained in safety and customer service focused and efficient service. We will measure our service levels in a variety of ways to ensure satisfaction. The best two ways to measure customer service are Secret Shoppers and Customer Service.

Secret Shoppers
An integral part of our Quality Assurance program is
the user of “Secret Shoppers” to audit the quality of
customer service of our own staff. The secret
shopper verifies ticket and cash transactions and
evaluates the drivers’ overall appearance, attitude,
and helpfulness as well as the vehicles overall
condition and cleanliness. These reports will be a
part of the monthly reporting package. The results
are then shared with the RVP, GM, and the client. The
secret shopper company will conduct at least 2
visits each quarter, with the goal for scoring to be
95% (A) or above. All reports are fed into our BI
system.

The system has an app that allows passengers to
see the exact location of the next trolley and gives them a countdown of when the vehicle will arrive. With San Clemente permission, LAZ will encourage the use of the app for passengers, allowing the public an added convenience during the travel experience. In addition to the app, a vehicle arrival countdown can be added to the digital display board at the trolley stops, alerting passengers to how long the wait is for the next vehicle. We are of course open to utilizing other technology if San Clemente has a different preference.
1923
Trolley Operations Services

2. Project Understanding & Work plan | 2024 RFP 19
Passenger Count Analysis
The first step in creating a route structure that will deliver results for the trolley service is completing an initial and then continual passenger count analysis. This is the foundation of identifying passenger trends by hour throughout the service day, week, month and year. This information allows us to identify the time of day that the specific stops are experiencing heavy loads of passengers. We use this method in our daily analysis to make sure a sufficient number of buses are operating throughout the 24-hour day. The second step of the analysis is to continually monitor the ever-changing passenger trends that are inherent with City operations.

The application of technologies that track traffic and passenger patterns plays a crucial role in better understanding the passenger trends and patterns over the long-term. This enables better decisions for the allocation of resources for the trolley operations. With continual analysis, LAZ and San Clemente management will have a complete understanding of normal increases or decreases in passenger load, versus seasonal or exceptional operations.

Route Times – Demand Staffing Schedule
LAZ has and will continue to follow the schedule provided by the City. The schedule has proven to be efficient and effective in providing the necessary levels to service the community and tourists of the City.

Improper schedules can create significant drop in the number of buses on route, causing increased headways and passenger wait times and result in the perception that more buses need to be added to deliver the service and add long-term costs that are unneeded. LAZ is familiar with the operational challenges of the City.

Should drivers need to be replaced in the field, the
manager on duty will transport a substitute driver to the bus on route, and will swap drivers to return to base.

Driver call-outs will be handled by dispatch and a
sufficient board of part-time drivers will be readily
available.

We will optimally meet the route and scheduling needs
for the San Clemente Trolley Operation by providing not only a proven and effective run cutting system, but also an experienced expert in the run cutting field. We would perform the following functions: Operate a scheduled
transit bus service at a headway frequency or at fixed
times for the following routes: Red Line, Blue Line & Green Line.

We would never change the routes, service, or schedules without prior written approval from the City. Ensure that any and all approved changes are maintained in the SOP Manual. 1924

Assignment of Trolley Buses
Supervisors are to assign trolleys to drivers on their respective shifts. Driver Vehicle Inspection Reports (DVIR) will be filled out daily by the drivers and maintenance slips will be prepared. At the start of their shift the dispatcher will note any trolleys that are under maintenance & note any trolleys that have had maintenance slips prepared. The supervisor will look over any 1926
Trolley Operations Services

2. Project Understanding & Work plan | 2024 RFP 22
maintenance slips & submit these reports to the City’s maintenance staff. Trolleys will then be assigned by the supervisor to the drivers based on what is available at the time.

Route and Driver Supervision
The supervisor will be responsible for all routes and drivers throughout the duration of the service. The supervisor will be in the field overseeing all operations.

The management team at LAZ Transportation will be accountable for all performance, activities, and compliance with the requirements of the Contract. Our Operations Team will be empowered and able to react to the day-to-day passengers’ needs. Beyond their regular work schedules, all management staff will be on call in the event of an emergency.

As part of the overall Operations Plan, LAZ will be responsible for management of all elements of the transportation program, including but not limited to:
• Staff will be available during all hours of operation and have the necessary communication devices for communicating to City staff and LAZ management • Ensuring that operations staff and bus drivers are trained properly and are equipped with the tools required to complete their job duties
• Ensuring adherence and compliance by personnel to all established customer service and operations policies, rules, procedures, and regulations • Ensuring all staff have a complete understanding of their job description and understand customer service expectations
• Ensuring that passengers are picked up in a timely manner and transported safely, and that the clients’ expectations for service delivery are exceeded • Ensuring appropriate staffing schedules at all locations • Ensuring all employees are in their proper uniform
• Directing and coordinating the customer service activities of all personnel • Follow the schedule to ensure that adequate resources are allocated for daily operations • Evaluating Mystery Shopping Reports and Customer Survey results to ensure superior customer service standards are consistently delivered by all drivers and employees Assignment of Routes and Drivers
The supervisor will assign drivers to their respective routes at the beginning of their shift. The supervisor may rotate the drivers between routes as much as possible while keeping in mind that they want their shift to run as smoothly as possible. At the beginning of their shift, drivers will be checked in and a review of their hours of service, credentials and readiness will be conducted.

When assigning routes, the supervisor will keep in mind the following: For busy days, assign drivers who are remarkably familiar with the service to the heavier routes & drivers with less experience to the slower routes. During slow periods of the day or on slow days rotate the less experienced drivers to the heavier routes so that they have the opportunity to improve. This will accomplish 2 things, it will expose drivers to provide them with the opportunity to improve & it will keep them from getting too comfortable on a specific route, which could become a hazard. 1927

Core Competency 3: Fleet Efficiencies
We will maintain the Shuttle Vehicles in a safe, clean, operable, and sanitary condition. All our vehicles and equipment will meet all Federal, State, and Local regulations.

Our Fleet Management Plan is very comprehensive and provides flexibility for driver only or allinclusive operations and fleet management contracts.

We will handle the daily inspection of all vehicles and very minor repairs, utilizing internal staff.

The following is a summary of our fleet maintenance guidelines. In addition, we have detailed processes and procedures in place, which are available upon request.

Fleet Management and Maintenance Summary of Guidelines
LAZ Understands that the Red and Blue Line maintenance service is performed and paid for by the City. We also understand that the Green Line maintenance service is required to be performed and paid for by the contractor. As such, we have included below details of the LAZ Fleet Maintenance program.

Daily Vehicle Inspections
For Service Operations and Maintenance Reporting, we are using Samsara, a cloud-based system that allows us to track driver log inspections, vehicle condition, maintenance needs, mileage, and overall vehicle history. Checklists are customizable for each operation. These records will be used during DOT inspections.

Drivers will use the technology platform app or the existing location process to conduct daily vehicle inspections. The App works online or offline so there is no reason not to obtain the information. Drivers have their own login, so we know who conducted the inspection. We will have complete control over the inspection process and the vehicle inventory in real time and photographic back up. Before starting the daily inspection, drivers view the last report conducted on the vehicle, any defects flagged as well as photos and comments relating to the defect or the repair of it. Drivers then sign off on the inspection. A vehicle inspection is done any time a new 1929
Trolley Operations Services

2. Project Understanding & Work plan | 2024 RFP 25
driver takes possession of the vehicle whether it’s to start the shift, a lunch break or mid shift change.

Inventory Tracking Software
Our highest priority is to ensure safe and on-time transportation for all passengers and visitors.

Inventory management and timely parts replacement are essential to ensuring that we meet or exceed these standards and City expectations. Inventory controls and safeguarding procedures begin with careful management and oversight. Our management and staff are trained to monitor the security of our operations facilities and vehicles at all times. Inventory tracking includes keeping a spreadsheet with all vehicle information, registration renewal and expiration, date of next annual inspection, vehicle maintenance logs, and any accidents.

Preventative Maintenance Procedures
LAZ’s goal of preventive facility maintenance is to perform all inspections and services before a repair is needed. All buses will be ready for service, clean both inside and out, and ready to use at the start of the requested service. We will outsource our quarterly and annual maintenance of the buses, which makes it easy to keep up with all the service our vehicles will need with minor to major repairs, service due reminders, and detailed e reports. We will coordinate preventative maintenance which will include, but not be limited to, oil and filter change, engine tune-up, transmission lube, differential lube, charging system test, ultraviolet inspections, auxiliary equipment, refrigeration units, service-due reminders, wheels alignment, and glass replacement.

Fueling
LAZ will utilize our drivers and/or supervisory staff to ensure all vehicles are properly fueled and ready for service.

Fleet Sustainable Processes & Practices
LAZ has developed processes and practices to mitigate the impacts of the transportation fleet on air pollution. The following is an example of some of these practices:
• Established guidelines for purchasing alternative fuel vehicles. • Comprehensive fleet replacement and refurbishment plan. • Awareness programs for drivers to become riders of transportation services. • Strategies for idling efficiency and reduction.
• Combined with these practices, LAZ has developed practical approaches to optimizing efficiencies in operations, maintenance, and driver behavior.

LAZ has implemented a world class transportation telematics platform that provides a comprehensive reporting suite for sustainable practices and technologies.

The custom reporting features include:
• Fuel Efficiencies
• Operating Practices
• Driver Behavior
• Emissions and Fleet Monitoring
• Route Optimization
1930
Trolley Operations Services

2. Project Understanding & Work plan | 2024 RFP 26
The platform coupled with the fleet enhancements provide for a robust view into the commitment to the strategies and goals set forth by LAZ.LAZ has wisely invested in alternative fuel vehicles for the fleet and will continue to replace existing diesel vehicles with alternative fuel types.

The fleet maintenance readiness program is centered around proving the required maintenance and OMC parts. This will increase efficiency of the vehicle and driver operations.

In addition to the fleet readiness practices, LAZ has developed an idling reduction program that is driven with goals and key performance indicators (KPI). The primary focus is the daily monitoring and measuring of driver behavior, vehicle performance and established KPI’s. It is expected that a substantial decrease in emissions will be achieved yearly by our strategy of increasing fleet utilization, driver awareness, and ongoing KPI monitoring. 1931
