Flock IP. The purpose for usage of the Unit, Documentation, Services, support, and Flock IP are solely to facilitate gathering evidence that could be used in a lawful criminal investigation by the appropriate government agency and not for tracking activities that the system is not designed to capture (“Permitted Purpose”).
City will not, and will not permit any Authorized End Users to, (i) copy or duplicate any of the Flock IP; (ii) decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer or otherwise attempt to obtain or perceive the source code from which any software component of any of the Flock IP is compiled or interpreted, or apply any other process or procedure to derive the source code of any software included in the Flock IP, or attempt to do any of the foregoing, and City acknowledges that nothing in this Agreement will be construed to grant City any right to obtain or use such source code; (iii) modify, alter, tamper with or repair any of the Flock IP, or create any derivative product from any of the foregoing, or attempt to do any of the foregoing, except with the prior written consent of Flock; (iv) interfere or attempt to interfere in any manner with the functionality or proper working of any of the Flock IP; (v) remove, obscure, or alter any notice of any intellectual property or proprietary right appearing on or contained within any of the Services or Flock IP; (vi) use the Services, support, Unit, Documentation or the Flock IP for anything other than the Permitted Purpose; or (vii) assign, sublicense, sell, resell, lease, rent or otherwise transfer or convey, or pledge as security or otherwise encumber, Agency’s rights under Sections 2.1, 2.2, or 2.3.
b. Flock Hardware. City understands that all Flock Hardware is owned exclusively by Flock, and that title to any Flock Hardware does not pass to City upon execution of this Agreement. City is not permitted to remove, reposition, re-install, tamper with, alter, adjust or otherwise take possession or control of Flock Hardware. Notwithstanding the notice and cure period set for in Section 6.4, City agrees and understands that in the event Agency is found to engage in any of the restricted actions of this Section 2.4(a), all warranties herein shall be null and void, and this Agreement shall be subject to immediate termination (without opportunity to cure) for material breach by City.
2.5 Retained Rights; Ownership. As between the Parties, subject to the rights granted in this Agreement, Flock and its licensors retain all right, title and interest in and to the Flock IP and its components, and City acknowledges that it neither owns nor acquires any additional rights in and to the foregoing not expressly granted by this Agreement. City further acknowledges that Flock retains the right to use the foregoing for any purpose in Flock’s sole discretion. There are no implied rights.
2.6 Suspension. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Flock may temporarily suspend City’s and any Authorized End User’s access to any portion or all of the Flock IP or Flock Hardware if Flock reasonably determines that: (a) there is a threat or attack on any of the Flock IP; (b) Agency ’s or any Authorized End User’s use of the Flock IP disrupts or poses a security risk to the Flock IP or any other Agency or vendor of Flock; (c) Agency or any Authorized End User is/are using the Flock IP for fraudulent or illegal activities; (d) Flock’s provision of the Services to Agency or any Authorized End User is DocuSign Envelope ID: A2405AE9-3231-4579-AE9F-5EEB698E5268 Consulting Services Agreement between City of San Leandro and Last revised 05/24/2022 Flock Group Inc. for Community Safety Cameras with ALPRs Exhibit A – Page 5 of 11 prohibited by applicable law; (e) any vendor of Flock has suspended or terminated Flock’s access to or use of any third party services or products required to enable Agency to access the Flock IP; or (f) City has violated any term of this provision, including, but not limited to, utilizing the Services for anything other than the Permitted Purpose (each such suspension, in accordance with this Section 2.6, a “Service Suspension”). Flock will make commercially reasonable efforts, circumstances permitting, to provide written notice of any Service Suspension to Agency (including notices sent to Flock’s registered email address) and to provide updates regarding resumption of access to the Flock IP following any Service Suspension. Flock will use commercially reasonable efforts to resume providing access to the Service as soon as reasonably possible after the event giving rise to the Service Suspension is cured. Flock will have no liability for any damage, liabilities, losses (including any loss of data or profits) or any other consequences that City or any Authorized End User may incur as a result of a Service Suspension. To the extent that the Service Suspension is not caused by City’s direct actions or by the actions of parties associated with the City, the expiration of the Term will be tolled by the duration of any suspension (for any continuous suspension lasting at least one full day) prorated for the proportion of cameras on the City’s account that have been impacted.
2.7 Installation Services.
a. Designated Locations. For installation of Flock Hardware, prior to performing the physical installation of the Units, Flock shall advise City on the location and positioning of the Units for optimal license plate image capture, as conditions and location allow. Flock may consider input from City regarding location, position and angle of the Units (each Unit location so designated by Agency, a “Designated Location”). Flock shall have final discretion on location of Units. Flock shall have no liability to Agency resulting from any poor performance, functionality or Footage resulting from or otherwise relating to the Designated Locations as a result of delay in installation due to City’s delay in confirming Designated Locations, in ordering and/or having the Designated Location ready for installation including having all electrical work preinstalled and permits ready, if necessary. The deployment plan will confirm the Designated Location. After installation, any subsequent changes to the deployment plan (“Reinstalls”) will incur a charge for Flock’s then-current list price for Reinstalls, as listed in the then-current Reinstall Policy (available at https://www.flocksafety.com/reinstall-fee-schedule) and any equipment charges. These changes include but are not limited to camera repositioning, adjusting of camera mounting, re-angling, removing foliage, camera replacement, changes to heights of poles, regardless of whether the need for Reinstalls related to vandalism, weather, theft, lack of criminal activity in view, and the like. Flock Safety shall have full discretion on decision to reinstall Flock Hardware.
b. Agency Installation Obligations. Agency agrees to allow Flock and its agents reasonable access in and near the Designated Locations at all reasonable times upon reasonable notice for the purpose of performing the installation work.
Although the Units are designed to utilize solar power, certain Designated DocuSign Envelope ID: A2405AE9-3231-4579-AE9F-5EEB698E5268 Consulting Services Agreement between City of San Leandro and Last revised 05/24/2022 Flock Group Inc. for Community Safety Cameras with ALPRs Exhibit A – Page 6 of 11 Locations may require a reliable source of 120V AC power, as described in the deployment plan. In the event adequate solar exposure is not available City is solely responsible for providing a reliable source of 120V AC power to the Units, if necessary. Additionally, City is solely responsible for (i) any permits or associated costs, and managing the permitting process of installation of cameras or AC power; (ii) any federal, state or local taxes including property, license, privilege, sales, use, excise, gross receipts or other similar taxes which may now or hereafter become applicable to, measured by or imposed upon or with respect to the installation of the Hardware, its use (excluding tax exempt entities), or (iii) any other supplementary cost for services performed in connection with installation of the Hardware, including but not limited to contractor licensing, engineered drawings, rental of specialized equipment or vehicles, third-party personnel (i.e.
Traffic Control Officers, Electricians, State DOT-approved poles, etc., if necessary), such costs to be approved by the Agency (“Agency Installation Obligations”). In the event that a Designated Location for a Unit requires permits, Flock will provide the City with a temporary alternate location for installation pending the permitting process. Once the required permits are obtained, Flock will relocate the Units from the temporary alternate location to the permitted location at no additional cost. Flock will provide options to supply power at each Designated Location. If City refuses alternative power supply options, City agrees and understands that City will not be subject to any reimbursement, tolling, or credit for any suspension period of Flock Services due to low solar. Flock will make all reasonable efforts within their control to minimize suspension of Flock Services.
Any fees payable to Flock exclude the foregoing. Without being obligated or taking any responsibility for the foregoing, Flock may pay and invoice related costs to City if City did not address them prior to the execution of this Agreement or a third party requires Flock to pay. City represents and warrants that it has all necessary right title and authority and hereby authorizes Flock to install the Hardware at the Designated Locations and to make any necessary inspections or tests in connection with such installation. Flock is not responsible for installation of City Hardware.
c. Flock’s Obligations. Installation of any Flock Hardware shall be installed in a workmanlike manner in accordance with Flock’s standard installation procedures, and the installation will be completed within a reasonable time from the time that the Designated Locations are confirmed. Following the initial installation of the Hardware and any subsequent Reinstalls or maintenance operations, Flock’s obligation to perform installation work shall cease; however, for the sole purpose of validating installation, Flock will continue to monitor the performance of the Units for the length of the Term and will receive access to the Footage for a period of three (3) business days after the initial installation in order to monitor performance and provide any necessary maintenance solely as a measure of quality control. City understands and agrees that the Flock Services will not function without the Hardware. Labor may be provided by Flock or a third party.
Flock is not obligated to install, reinstall, or provide physical maintenance to City Hardware.
DocuSign Envelope ID: A2405AE9-3231-4579-AE9F-5EEB698E5268 Consulting Services Agreement between City of San Leandro and Last revised 05/24/2022 Flock Group Inc. for Community Safety Cameras with ALPRs Exhibit A – Page 7 of 11 d. Security Interest. Flock Hardware shall remain the personal property of Flock and will be removed upon the natural expiration of this Agreement at no additional cost to City. City shall not perform any acts which would interfere with the retention of title of the Hardware by Flock. Should City default on any payment of the Flock Services, Flock may remove Hardware at Flock’s discretion. Such removal, if made by Flock, shall not be deemed a waiver of Flock’s rights to any damages Flock may sustain as a result of City’s default and Flock shall have the right to enforce any other legal remedy or right.
2.8 Hazardous Conditions. Unless otherwise stated in the Agreement, Flock’s price for its services under this Agreement does not contemplate work in any areas that contain hazardous materials, or other hazardous conditions, including, without limit, asbestos, lead, toxic or flammable substances. In the event any such hazardous materials are discovered in the designated locations in which Flock is to perform services under this Agreement, Flock shall have the right to cease work immediately in the area affected until such materials are removed or rendered harmless.
2.9 Support Services. Subject to the payment of fees, Flock shall monitor the performance and functionality of Flock Services and may, from time to time, advise City on changes to the Flock Services, Installation Services, or the Designated Locations which may improve the performance or functionality of the Services or may improve the quality of the Footage.
The work, its timing, and the fees payable relating to such work shall be agreed by the Parties prior to any alterations to or changes of the Services or the Designated Locations (“Monitoring Services”). Subject to the terms hereof, Flock will provide City with reasonable technical and on-site support and maintenance services (“On-Site Services”) in-person or by email at [email protected]. Flock will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to requests for support.
2.10 Special Terms. From time to time, Flock may offer certain “Special Terms” related to guarantees, service and support which are indicated in the proposal and on the order form and will become part of this Agreement, upon City’s consent. To the extent that any terms of this agreement are inconsistent or conflict with the Special Terms, the Special Terms shall control.
2.11 Changes to Platform. Flock may, in its sole discretion, make any changes to any system or platform that it deems necessary or useful to (i) maintain or enhance (a) the quality or delivery of Flock’s products or services to its agencies, (b) the competitive strength of, or market for, Flock’s products or services, (c) such platform or system’s cost efficiency or performance, or (ii) to comply with applicable law.

Unless otherwise DocuSign Envelope ID: A2405AE9-3231-4579-AE9F-5EEB698E5268 Consulting Services Agreement between City of San Leandro and Last revised 05/24/2022 Flock Group Inc. for Community Safety Cameras with ALPRs Exhibit A – Page 8 of 11 required by law, City will not share its account or password with anyone, and must protect the security of its account and password.

3.2 Agency Representations and Warranties. City represents, covenants, and warrants that City will use the Services only in compliance with this Agreement and all applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to any laws relating to the recording or sharing of video, photo, or audio content. Although Flock has no obligation to monitor City’s use of the Services, Flock may do so and may prohibit any use of the Services it believes may be (or alleged to be) in violation of the foregoing.
4. CONFIDENTIALITY; AGENCY DATA
4.1 Confidentiality. To the extent allowable by applicable FOIA and state-specific Public Records Acts, each Party (the “Receiving Party”) understands that the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) has disclosed or may disclose business, technical or financial information relating to the Disclosing Party’s business (hereinafter referred to as “Proprietary Information” of the Disclosing Party). Proprietary Information of Flock includes non-public information regarding features, functionality and performance of the Services.
Proprietary Information of City includes non-public data provided by City to Flock or collected by Flock via the Unit, including the Footage, to enable the provision of the Services, which includes but is not limited to geolocation information and environmental data collected by sensors built into the Units. The Receiving Party agrees: (i) to take the same security precautions to protect against disclosure or unauthorized use of such Proprietary Information that the party takes with its own proprietary information, but in no event will a party apply less than reasonable precautions to protect such Proprietary Information, and (ii) not to use (except in performance of the Services or as otherwise permitted herein) or divulge to any third person any such Proprietary Information. Flock’s use of the Proprietary Information may include processing the Proprietary Information to send City alerts, such as when a car exits City’s neighborhood, or to analyze the data collected to identify motion or other events. The Disclosing Party agrees that the foregoing shall not apply with respect to any information that the Receiving Party can document (a) is or becomes generally available to the public, or (b) was in its possession or known by it prior to receipt from the Disclosing Party, or (c) was rightfully disclosed to it without restriction by a third party, or (d) was independently developed without use of any Proprietary Information of the Disclosing Party. Nothing in this Agreement will prevent the Receiving Party from disclosing the Proprietary Information pursuant to any judicial or governmental order, at which time the Parties agree that the Receiving Party will give the Disclosing Party reasonable prior notice of such disclosure. For clarity, Flock may access, use, preserve and/or disclose the Footage to law enforcement authorities, government DocuSign Envelope ID: A2405AE9-3231-4579-AE9F-5EEB698E5268 Consulting Services Agreement between City of San Leandro and Last revised 05/24/2022 Flock Group Inc. for Community Safety Cameras with ALPRs Exhibit A – Page 9 of 11 officials, and/or third parties, if legally required to do so or if Flock has a good faith belief that such access, use, preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (a) comply with a legal process or request; (b) enforce this Agreement, including investigation of any potential violation thereof; (c) detect, prevent or otherwise address security, fraud or technical issues; or (d) protect the rights, property or safety of Flock, its users, a third party, or the public as required or permitted by law, including respond to an emergency situation. City hereby expressly grants Flock a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free right and license (during and after the term hereof) to disclose the Agency Data (inclusive of any Footage) to enable law enforcement monitoring against law enforcement hotlists as well as provide Footage search access to law enforcement for investigative purposes only. Flock may store deleted Footage in order to comply with certain legal obligations, but such retained Footage will not be retrievable without a valid court order.
4.2 Agency Data. As between Flock and City, all right, title and interest in the Agency Data, belong to and are retained solely by City. City hereby grants to Flock a limited, nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use the Agency Data and perform all acts with respect to the Agency Data as may be necessary for Flock to provide the Flock Services to City , including without limitation the Support Services set forth in Section 2.9 above, and a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid license to use, reproduce, modify and distribute the Agency Data as a part of the Aggregated Data (as defined in Section 4.4 below). As between City and Non-Agency End Users that have prescribed access of Footage to Agency, each of City and Non-Agency End Users will share all right, title and interest in the Non-Agency End User Data. This Agreement does not by itself make any Non-Agency End User Data the sole property or the Proprietary Information of City. Flock will automatically delete Footage older than thirty (30) days. City has a thirty (30) day window to view, save and/or transmit Footage to the relevant government agency prior to its deletion.
4.3 Feedback. If Agency provides any suggestions, ideas, enhancement requests, feedback, recommendations or other information relating to the subject matter hereunder, Agency hereby assigns (and will cause its agents and representatives to assign) to Flock all right, title and interest (including intellectual property rights) with respect to or resulting from any of the foregoing.
4.4 Aggregated Data. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Flock shall have the right to collect and analyze data that does not refer to or identify City or any individuals or de-identifies such data and other information relating to the provision, use and performance of various aspects of the Services and related systems and technologies (including, without limitation, information concerning Agency Data and data derived therefrom). For the sake of clarity, Aggregated Data is compiled anonymous data which has been stripped of any personal identifying information. City acknowledges that Flock will be compiling anonymized and/or aggregated data based on Agency Data input into the Services (the “Aggregated Data”). City hereby grants Flock a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free right and license (during and after the Service Term hereof) to (i) use and distribute such Aggregated Data to improve and enhance the Services and for DocuSign Envelope ID: A2405AE9-3231-4579-AE9F-5EEB698E5268 Consulting Services Agreement between City of San Leandro and Last revised 05/24/2022 Flock Group Inc. for Community Safety Cameras with ALPRs Exhibit A – Page 10 of 11 other development, diagnostic and corrective purposes, other Flock offerings, and crime prevention efforts, and (ii) disclose the Agency Data (both inclusive of any Footage) to enable law enforcement monitoring against law enforcement hotlists as well as provide Footage search access to law enforcement for investigative purposes only.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, to the extent this Agreement is a “construction contract” as defined by California Civil Code Section 2782, as may be amended from time to time, such duties of Consultant to indemnify shall not apply when to do so would be prohibited by California Civil Code Section 2782.
The Consultant’s obligation to defend and indemnify shall not be excused because of the Consultant’s inability to evaluate Liability or because the Consultant evaluates Liability and determines that the Consultant is not liable to the claimant. The Consultant must respond within 30 days to the tender of any claim for defense and indemnity by the City. If the Consultant fails to accept or reject a tender of defense and indemnity within 30 days, in addition to any other remedy authorized by law, so much of the money due the Consultant under and by virtue of this Agreement as shall reasonably be considered necessary by the City, may be retained by the City until disposition has been made of the claim or suit for damages, or until the Consultant accepts or rejects the tender of defense, whichever occurs first.
Consultant shall also indemnify, defend and hold harmless the City from all suits or claims for infringement of any patent rights, copyrights, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, or any other proprietary rights of any person or persons because of the City or any of its officers, employees, volunteers, or agents use of articles, products things, or services supplied in the performance of Consultant’s services under this Agreement, however, the cost to defend charged to Consultant shall not exceed Consultant’s proportionate percentage fault.
