• Managed Services Lead
o We recognize that consistency and working with people who understand your business, processes and unique solution is important. A key aspect of our program is that we assign a Managed Services Lead (MSL) to be your central point of contact to ensure quality and consistency.
o The Managed Services Lead is responsible for:
• Scheduling and leading an on boarding meeting with client stakeholders and decision makers
• Leading the planning and implementation of your Managed Services plan including;
• Defining logistics related to ticket management, escalations, and approvals to align to your corporate standards.
• Identifying and scheduling proper planning session cadence based on Client chosen tier (Monthly, Bi-Monthly or Quarterly).
• Your MSL is the continuity and glue to partner with you for all aspects related to delivering services, triaging ticket requests, oversight for other Armanino Consultants , and consistent work status communication . • System Review
o Review sessions to document modules and process
o Discuss things working or not working
o Up to 2 sessions per year
o Consulting days may be used to fix items from this review o Once a year as a part of your plan, we will review your current solution configuration to identify gaps and nonconformities with best practices. We will share these findings and solicit feedback from key users to identify what is and what isn't working well for the team.
o The review does not include consulting days to address the gaps, simply the analysis for consideration.
• Academy Public Web Class Registration
o Education and training for users is critical for efficient day to day operations. In many cases, the root cause of submitted issues stem from a knowledge gap among users. o A core part of the Managed Services plan is aimed toward a proactive approach to educate and empower users. Academy classes are designed to obtain optimal learning outcomes and are offered to meet the learning goals for multiple topics and varying levels.
o All Academy classes are live instructor-led learning events. o Academy Public Web classes teach standard system functionality and registered users will be provided a handout as applicable to the class. Recordings for Public Web classes are not provided.
o Academy Public Web class registration information and instruction will be provided to the Client primary contact during the on boarding process. Client will be provided an Academy code to use during registration and will expire after all registrations in-scope specified by the plan elections have been used.
o Some of our classes are eligible for CPE credit, and are noted on the website class listing. Contact the Academy ([email protected]) to inquire or for more information.
• Scheduled Planning Sessions
o An important aspect to effectively delivering your plan are joint planning sessions. Your Managed Service Lead will work with your core group of stakeholders to manage requests and set a clear set of priorities . Depending on your plan this will occur monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly.
■ New Release Webinar
o The New Release Webinar will preview what is coming and help you to evaluate what you could or should take advantage of in the new release. © Armanino ''P I armaninollp.com Page 3
• Armanino Expedition Session
o What we hear from clients over and over is that they expect a partner to stay on top of the ever-changing technology landscape to bring innovative and additive solutions to the table. As a Managed Services Client you are prioritized as a priority account that is actively managed with an assigned Armanino Client Manager. At least once a year, your designated Client Manager will engage in a strategic conversation to help lay out and prioritize you companies' goals for the upcoming year and bring solutions on how we might be able to help you navigate to achieve your goals • Application Administration
o Many clients are focused on serving the business and either do not have the time or technical skillset required to help administer their software solution. o This offering assigns an Armanino Consultant, who will assume the Administrator role for your supported software environments (In Two Portal and Dynamics GP Application), allowing your team to focus on the more important aspects of the business. Tasks include: user additions, removals, provisioning, security assignments, password resets from the In Two portal as well as the Dynamics GP application. o Tasks specific to In Two folder and services permissions and access will have to be handled by lnTwo support.
o It is understood that the Client's software environment is hosted by In Two including RDWeb access and this agreement does not cover any charges or fees charge by In Two. o This offering covers the time equivalent of 3 hours per month.

Client will maintain, prioritize and make requests for Services through Freshdesk (each, a "Service Request", "Request" or "Ticket"). Armanino will monitor Service Requests and communicate initial response within the response times set forth above. Each Service Request, no matter the issue, will begin with an initial assessment and consultation ("Triage") . During Triage, Armanino will discuss the Service Request with Client and attempt resolution. If the Service Request cannot be resolved within Triage , Armanino and Client will begin a plan to address the issue , including preliminary scheduling. Armanino and Client team members will meet as necessary, at mutually agreed times, to review Service Request status, respective prioritization, and Services scheduling. Armanino's response to any Service Request is subject to resource availability. Initial response , status information , scheduling and resolution will be done through Freshdesk.
• Armanino Customer Support Portal: https://customersuccess.armaninollp.com • Email: help@a rmaninollp.com
• Phone: 925-790-2643
As Armanino works to resolve a Service Request, it may determine that a single Request contains multiple distinct issues. In this case, Armanino will require Client to submit separate Service Requests for each distinct issue. Armanino may also determine such a Request qualifies as a Project (see definition below).

Service Request: A Service Request is a question, request , or issue that is submitted and assigned to Armanino via the Freshdesk instance. A defined number of Service Requests are included in the Plan, depending on the Plan option chosen by Client (see "Proposal " section, below). The chosen Plan also dictates what type of Service Requests may be filed. Additionally, some types of service requests are limited in the number of times a year they can be submitted.

The following are examples of Services that can be provided by Armanino under the Plan. Further details on what services are available in each tier, and what types of Service Requests are in-scope are in Appendices A.
• System Administration
• Functional Support
© Armanino'' P I armaninollp.com Page 4
Armanino may close Service Requests if there is no Armanino action item, or Armanino action depends on a response by the Client , and there has been no response from the Client for 2 weeks (14 days).

Some Service Requests may cross the line between different Service Lines such as Data Analytics Managed Services , Adaptive Managed Services , or Other Managed Services. Armanino reserves the right to re-categorize any Service Request such that it is in the appropriate Service Line and utilizes that Service Line's Request allotment. Additionally, some Requests may require a Request to be filed in each Service Line for tracking purposes . Such Requests will each consume a Request in their respective Service Line.

Armanino implementation services, nor 3rd party offerings, are warranted by Armanino Managed Services.

Though Managed Services can assist with issues related to these areas, any such Request will utilize the respective type of Managed Services Request Type . There is no implication that support for such issues are included in Managed Services outside of the normal Request Types and service inclusions .

1. Term: The term of the Plan is defined immediately below. • Dynamics GP - 3 Year Term
o Plan Start Date = 1st of the current month if signed between the 1st and the 14th or 1st of the following month if signed between the 15th and the last day of the month o The initial term of this Plan shall be three (3) years ("Initial Term") and each renewal term shall be one (1) year (Initial Term and renewal terms , collectively, the "Term") Contract price is based on assumptions of necessary support required. Should support in year one materially exceed expectations , Armanino has the right to opt out of year two and three of the Initial Term , or to renegotiate price for the remainder of the Initial Term. Client will receive notice at least sixty (60) days before the end of the first year of the Initial Term if Armanino determines a price re-negotiation is necessary ; otherwise, renewal notice will only be given sixty (60) days before the end of the Initial Term , providing pricing information for the renewal term .

Pricing and Invoicing

The Plan price depends upon which service tier is chosen. The price options are set forth above, and the annualized amount constitutes the Plan price ("Price").

This fee includes costs not separately itemized such as engagement and project management technology (e.g., hosted/cloud services, equipment, internet and engagement software), time for scheduling resources, billing report production and, where applicable, local travel time for local resources staffed on the Project.

If any invoice becomes delinquent, Armanino will immediately halt work on all Client Requests.

Change Orders: The Price is based on the Services described in this Proposal.

Each Change Order must be approved by Client and executed by both parties before Armanino performs related work.

A Change Order would also be required if Client chose to use more Requests in a given month than is allotted in their chosen Plan. Each additional Service Request will be the subject of a Change Order and will be invoiced in advance , at the fixed per-Request rate set forth in the table below for the applicable service tier.
