INSURANCE
Prior to the beginning of and throughout the duration of the Work, CONTRACTOR and its subcontractors shall maintain insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth below. CONTRACTOR will use existing coverage to comply with these requirements. If that existing coverage does not meet the requirements set forth herein, CONTRACTOR agrees to amend, supplement or endorse the existing coverage to do so.
CONTRACTOR acknowledges that the insurance coverage and policy limits set forth in this section constitute the minimum amount of coverage required. Any insurance proceeds available to CONTRACTOR or its subcontractors in excess of the limits and coverage identified in this Agreement and which is applicable to a given loss, claim or demand, will be equally available to AGENCY.
A. CONTRACTOR shall provide the following types and amounts of insurance:
Without limiting CONTRACTOR’s indemnification of AGENCY, and prior to commencement of Work, CONTRACTOR shall obtain, provide and maintain at its own expense during the term of this Agreement, policies of insurance of the type and amounts described below and in a form satisfactory to AGENCY.
General liability insurance. CONTRACTOR shall maintain commercial general liability insurance with coverage at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CG 00 01, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, $2,000,000 general aggregate, for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage, and a $2,000,000 completed operations aggregate. The policy must include contractual liability that has not been amended. Any endorsement restricting standard ISO “insured contract” language will not be accepted.
Automobile liability insurance. CONTRACTOR shall maintain automobile insurance at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CA 00 01 covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with Work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for any owned, hired, non-owned or rented vehicles, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit for each accident.
Umbrella or excess liability insurance. [Optional depending on limits required] CONTRACTOR shall obtain and maintain an umbrella or excess liability insurance that will provide bodily injury, personal injury and property damage liability coverage at least as broad as the primary coverages set forth above, including commercial general Packet Page 280
Fire Station Automated Alerting System
Exhibit C
liability, automobile liability, and employer’s liability. Such policy or policies shall include the following terms and conditions:
• A drop-down feature requiring the policy to respond in the event that any primary insurance that would otherwise have applied proves to be uncollectable in whole or in part for any reason;
• Pay on behalf of wording as opposed to reimbursement; • Concurrency of effective dates with primary policies; • Policies shall “follow form” to the underlying primary policies; and • Insureds under primary policies shall also be insureds under the umbrella or excess policies.
Workers’ compensation insurance. CONTRACTOR shall maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance (Statutory Limits) and Employer’s Liability Insurance (with limits of at least $1,000,000) for CONTRACTOR’s employees in accordance with the laws of the State of California, Section 3700 of the Labor Code. In addition, CONTRACTOR shall require each subcontractor to similarly maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance and Employer’s Liability Insurance in accordance with the laws of the State of California, Section 3700 for all of the subcontractor’s employees.
CONTRACTOR shall submit to AGENCY, along with the certificate of insurance, a Waiver of Subrogation endorsement in favor of AGENCY, its officers, agents, employees and volunteers.
Pollution liability insurance. Environmental Impairment Liability Insurance shall be written on a CONTRACTOR’s Pollution Liability form or other form acceptable to AGENCY providing coverage for liability arising out of sudden, accidental and gradual pollution and remediation. The policy limit shall be no less than $1,000,000 dollars per claim and in the aggregate. All activities contemplated in this Agreement shall be specifically scheduled on the policy as “covered operations.” The policy shall provide coverage for the hauling of waste from the project site to the final disposal location, including nonowned disposal sites.
Builder’s risk insurance. Upon commencement of construction and with approval of AGENCY, CONTRACTOR shall obtain and maintain builder’s risk insurance for the entire duration of the Project until only the AGENCY has an insurable interest. The Builder’s Risk coverage shall include the coverages as specified below.
The named insureds shall be CONTRACTOR and AGENCY, including its officers, officials, employees, and agents. All Subcontractors (excluding those solely responsible for design Work) of any tier and suppliers shall be included as additional insureds as their interests may appear. CONTRACTOR shall not be required to maintain property insurance for Packet Page 281
Fire Station Automated Alerting System
Exhibit C
any portion of the Project following transfer of control thereof to AGENCY. The policy shall contain a provision that all proceeds from the builder’s risk policy shall be made payable to the AGENCY. The AGENCY will act as a fiduciary for all other interests in the Project.
Policy shall be provided for replacement value on an "all risk" basis for the completed value of the project. There shall be no coinsurance penalty or provisional limit provision in any such policy. Policy must include: (1) coverage for any ensuing loss from faulty workmanship, Nonconforming Work, omission or deficiency in design or specifications; (2) coverage against machinery accidents and operational testing; (3) coverage for removal of debris, and insuring the buildings, structures, machinery, equipment, materials, facilities, fixtures and all other properties constituting a part of the Project; (4) Ordinance or law coverage for contingent rebuilding, demolition, and increased costs of construction; (5) transit coverage (unless insured by the supplier or receiving contractor), with sub-limits sufficient to insure the full replacement value of any key equipment item; (6) Ocean marine cargo coverage insuring any Project materials or supplies, if applicable; (7) coverage with sub-limits sufficient to insure the full replacement value of any property or equipment stored either on or off the Site or any staging area. Such insurance shall be on a form acceptable to Agency to ensure adequacy of terms and sublimits and shall be submitted to the Agency prior to commencement of construction.
Other provisions or requirements
Proof of insurance. CONTRACTOR shall provide certificates of insurance to AGENCY as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein, along with a waiver of subrogation endorsement for workers’ compensation. Insurance certificates and endorsements must be approved by AGENCY’s risk manager prior to commencement of performance. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with AGENCY at all times during the term of this contract. AGENCY reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, at any time.
Duration of coverage. CONTRACTOR shall procure and maintain for the duration of the contract insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property, which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the Work hereunder by CONTRACTOR, his agents, representatives, employees or subcontractors.
CONTRACTOR must maintain general liability and umbrella or excess liability insurance for as long as there is a statutory exposure to completed operations claims. AGENCY and its officers, officials, employees, and agents shall continue as additional insureds under such policies.
Primary/noncontributing. Coverage provided by CONTRACTOR shall be primary and any insurance or self-insurance procured or maintained by AGENCY shall not be required Packet Page 282
Fire Station Automated Alerting System
Exhibit C
to contribute with it. The limits of insurance required herein may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis for the benefit of AGENCY before the AGENCY’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
Products/completed operations coverage. Products/completed operations coverage shall extend a minimum of three (3) years after project completion. Coverage shall be included on behalf of the insured for covered claims arising out of the actions of independent contractors. If the insured is using subcontractors, the Policy must include work performed “by or on behalf” of the insured. Policy shall contain no language that would invalidate or remove the insurer’s duty to defend or indemnify for claims or suits expressly excluded from coverage. Policy shall specifically provide for a duty to defend on the part of the insurer. The AGENCY, its officials, officers, agents, and employees, shall be included as additional insureds under the Products and Completed Operations coverage.
Agency’s rights of enforcement. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these requirements or is canceled and not replaced, AGENCY has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by AGENCY will be promptly reimbursed by CONTRACTOR or AGENCY will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from CONTRACTOR payments. In the alternative, AGENCY may cancel this Agreement.
Acceptable insurers. All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance or is on the List of Approved Surplus Line Insurers in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders’ Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VII (or larger) in accordance with the latest edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by the AGENCY’s risk manager.
Waiver of subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against AGENCY, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees and volunteers or shall specifically allow CONTRACTOR or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. CONTRACTOR hereby waives its own right of recovery against AGENCY, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.
Enforcement of contract provisions (non estoppel). CONTRACTOR acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the AGENCY to inform Packet Page 283
Fire Station Automated Alerting System
Exhibit C
CONTRACTOR of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the AGENCY nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the CONTRACTOR maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the AGENCY requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the CONTRACTOR. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the AGENCY.
Notice of cancellation. CONTRACTOR agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide to AGENCY with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage.
Additional insured status. General liability policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that AGENCY and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds under such policies. This provision shall also apply to any excess/umbrella liability policies.
Prohibition of undisclosed coverage limitations. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to AGENCY and approved of in writing.
Separation of insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that CONTRACTOR’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions.
Pass through clause. CONTRACTOR agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by CONTRACTOR, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of CONTRACTOR. CONTRACTOR agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section.
CONTRACTOR agrees that upon request, all agreements with consultants, subcontractors, and others engaged in the project will be submitted to AGENCY for review.
Packet Page 284
Fire Station Automated Alerting System
Exhibit C
Agency’s right to revise requirements. The AGENCY reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the CONTRACTOR a ninety (90) day advance written notice of such change.
If such change results in substantial additional cost to the CONTRACTOR, the AGENCY and CONTRACTOR may renegotiate CONTRACTOR’s compensation.
Self-insured retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by AGENCY. AGENCY reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these specifications unless approved by AGENCY.
Timely notice of claims. CONTRACTOR shall give AGENCY prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from CONTRACTOR’s performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.
Additional insurance. CONTRACTOR shall also procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the Work.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USDD PRODUCT SALES
These U.S. Digital Designs, Inc. terms and conditions of sale (“Terms and Conditions”) are effective Sep 20, 2024 (the “Terms and Conditions Effective Date”), and supersede all prior versions covering the sale of products and related services (collectively, “Products”, as defined more specifically below) by U.S. Digital Designs, Inc. (“USDD”). References to “Customer”, “you”, or “your” all pertain to the purchaser of Products. These Terms and Conditions, together with any separate agreement you may have with USDD that specifically references these Terms and Conditions (collectively, the “Agreement”) set forth the entire agreement between the parties relating to your purchase of USDD Products. The Agreement may only be modified by an authorized representative of each party in a signed writing.
ORDERS. Orders (including any revised and follow-on orders) (each, an “Order”) for USDD Products are non-cancelable, except as expressly set forth herein, and will be governed by the terms of the Agreement. All Orders are subject to acceptance by USDD and shall include the following information: purchase order number; customer’s legal name and billing address; Customer’s shipping address; and a list of the Products and quantities for each different type of Product Customer wishes to order. USDD’s acknowledgment of its receipt of an Order shall not constitute acceptance of such Order. An Order is deemed to be accepted upon the earlier of (i) USDD’s written acceptance or (ii) shipment of the Products specified in the Order.
Any conflicting, additional, and/or different terms or conditions on Customer’s Order or any other similar instrument are deemed to be material alterations and are rejected and not binding upon USDD. USDD’s acceptance of Customer’s Order is expressly conditioned upon Customer’s assent to the terms and conditions contained herein in their entirety. Customer’s acceptance of delivery from USDD constitutes Customer’s acceptance of these terms and conditions in their entirety.
REMITTANCES. All invoices shall be due and payable upon receipt in United States currency, free of exchange or any other charges, or as otherwise agreed in writing by USDD.
QUOTE PRICING. This proposal expires 90 days after its date. Prices are subject to correction for error. Prices, terms, conditions, and Product or Service specifications are subject to change without notice. Pricing is subject to immediate change upon announcement of Product discontinuance.
PAYMENT.
4.1. Invoicing & Payment. USDD reserves the right to invoice Customer monthly for all materials delivered. Invoices are due thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice, unless prepayment is required in the quote. If the Customer becomes overdue in any progress payment, USDD shall be entitled to suspend further shipments, shall be entitled to interest at the annual rate of 18%, or the maximum amount allowed by law, and shall also be entitled to avail itself of any other legal or equitable remedies. Customer agrees that it will pay and/or reimburse USDD for any and all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs which are incurred by USDD in the collection of amounts due and payable hereunder.
4.2. Payment Disputes. Any disputes must be provided to USDD as soon as possible and must be accompanied by detailed supporting information. Disputes as to invoices are deemed waived fifteen (15) days following the invoice date. In the event that any portion of an invoice is undisputed, such undisputed amount must be paid by no later than the invoice due date.
4.3. No Set Off. Neither Customer nor any related entities (or representatives or agents thereof) shall attempt to set off or recoup any invoiced amounts or any portion thereof against other amounts that are due or may become due from USDD, its parent, affiliates, subsidiaries or other legal entities, business divisions, or units.
4.4. Credit Card Payments. All USDD quotes are developed for the Customer with the understanding the eventualany purchase of the Products listed thereon willwould be facilitated usingsubject to USDD’s standard Purchase Order and Invoice process. If Ccustomer would rather seek to use a Credit Card for purchase, then said order would be subject to a 4% credit card surcharge.
SURCHARGES.
5.1. In addition to any Product repricing under Section 8.2, USDD may, from time-to-time and in its sole discretion, issue surcharges on new and existing Orders in order to mitigate and/or recover increased operating costs arising out of or related to, without limitation: (a) foreign currency exchange variation, (b) increased cost of third-party content, labor and materials, (c) impact of government tariffs or other actions, and (d) any conditions that increase USDD’s costs, including without limitation increased labor, freight, material or supply costs, or increased costs due to inflation (collectively, “Surcharges”). Such Surcharges will not be considered a “price increase” as contemplated hereunder and will be effective upon notice to Customer. For avoidance of doubt, Orders placed prior to the Terms and Conditions Effective Date which have not been delivered, including those on backlog or which requested delivery more than twelve (12) months from the date of Order, are subject to Surcharges.
PROPRIETARY and CONFIDENTIAL STANDARD Ts&Cs Page 6 of 11 Packet Page 293
5.2. USDD will invoice Customer, and Buyer agrees to pay for any Surcharges pursuant to the standard payment terms in these Terms and Conditions. If a dispute arises with respect to Surcharges and that dispute remains open for more than fifteen (15) days, USDD may, in its sole discretion, withhold performance or future shipments, or combine any other rights and remedies under this Agreement or permitted by law, until the dispute is resolved. The terms of this Section shall prevail in the event of inconsistency with any other terms in these Terms and Conditions.
Any Surcharges, as well as the timing, effectiveness, and method of determination thereof, will be separate from and in addition to any changes to pricing that are affected by any other provisions in these Terms and Conditions.
CANCELLATION AND SUSPENSION. Any Order resulting from this proposal is subject to cancellation or instructions to suspend work by the Customer only upon agreement to pay USDD for all work in progress, all inventoried or ordered project parts and materials, and all other costs incurred by USDD related to the Order.
TAXES. USDD’s pricing excludes all taxes (including but not limited to sales, use, excise, value-added, and other similar taxes), tariffs and duties (including, but not limited to, amounts imposed upon the Product(s) or bill of material thereof under any Trade Act, including, but not limited to, the Trade Expansion Act, section 232 and the Trade Act of 1974, section 301) and charges (collectively “Taxes”). All Taxes of any kind levied by any federal, state, municipal or other governmental authority, which tax USDD is required to collect or pay with respect to the production, sale, or delivery of products sold to Customer, shall be the responsibility of and be invoiced to Customer, unless, at the time of Order placement, Customer furnishes USDD with a valid exemption certificate or other documentation sufficient to verify exemption from Taxes, including, but not limited to, a direct pay permit. Customer agrees to pay all such Taxes and further agrees to reimburse USDD for any such payments made by USDD.
SHIPPING/DELIVERY/RISK OF LOSS.
8.1. Delivery Liability. Delivery and shipment dates for Products are estimates only. Deliveries may be made in partial shipments. USDD and its affiliated entities are not liable, either directly or indirectly, for delays of carriers or delays in connection with any Force Majeure Event (as defined in Section 17 below), and the estimated delivery date shall be extended accordingly.
8.2. Future Delivery and Repricing. USDD will schedule delivery in accordance with its standard lead times unless the Order states a later delivery date or the parties otherwise agree in writing. USDD will accept Orders with a future ship date of up to eighteen (18) months from the date of the entry of the Order. Customer agrees that in the event an Order is scheduled to be delivered more than six (6) months from the date of the entry of the Order, USDD may, in its sole determination and at each six (6) month anniversary of the date of the entry of the Order, adjust the pricing of the Order to conform to the then-current prices of the USDD Products included in the Order. USDD will include any repricing in its final invoice related to the Order.
8.3. Storage Fees. If delivery takes place more than six (6) months from the date of the entry of the Order, Customer agrees to pay USDD a storage fee (the “Storage Fee”), as set forth in the quote, for each month after six (6) months from the date of the entry of the Order Customer has not taken delivery of the Products in the Order. USDD will separately invoice any storage fees owed under this Section at the end of each month for which the storage fees are owed.
8.4. Title & Risk of Loss. Unless otherwise specifically detailed in this quote, delivery terms for Products (excluding software and services) are (i)
EX Works (EXW Incoterms 2020) USDD’s point of shipment (“USDD Dock”) for all shipments (except that USDD is responsible for obtaining any export license), and (ii) F.O.B. USDD Dock for all domestic shipments. For shipments from a USDD Dock to a Buyer location within the same country, the import/export provisions of the INCOTERMS do not apply. USDD shall be responsible for obtaining insurance on each shipment to Customer for the full value of the shipment. Shipment shall be to a single point of delivery.
LIMITED WARRANTY. CUSTOMER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES AND USDD’S SOLE LIABILITY AS TO ANY WARRANTY CLAIM ON ANY PRODUCT SOLD IN CONNECTION WITH THIS QUOTE IS AS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION. SUCH REMEDIES ARE IN LIEU OF ANY
OTHER LIABILITY OR OBLIGATION OF USDD, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY LIABILITY OR OBLIGATION FOR DAMAGE, LOSS,
OR INJURY (WHETHER DIRECT, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL) ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE DELIVERY, USE, OR PERFORMANCE OF THE PRODUCTS. CREDIT, REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT (AT USDD’S OPTION) IS THE SOLE REMEDY PROVIDED HEREUNDER. NO EXTENSION OF THIS WARRANTY WILL BE BINDING UPON USDD UNLESS SET FORTH IN WRITING AND SIGNED BY A USDD AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE.
9.1. Product Warranty Terms. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations contained herein, and unless USDD has otherwise provided an alternative written warranty (in which case the terms of such warranty will control), USDD warrants and guarantees its products will be free from defects in workmanship and materials (collectively, “Defects”) for 12 months from the date of shipment to Customer (“Warranty Period”). This limited warranty does not cover defects caused by normal wear and tear or maintenance.
PROPRIETARY and CONFIDENTIAL STANDARD Ts&Cs Page 7 of 11 Packet Page 294
9.2. Product Defects. If a Defect with a Product arises and a valid claim is made within the Warranty Period, Customer shall initiate the RMA process as described below. Upon approval, USDD, at its option, will either (1) repair the Product defect at no charge, using new parts or parts equivalent to new in performance and reliability or (2) exchange the Product with a Product that is new or equivalent to new in performance and reliability and is at least functionally equivalent to the original Product. Any replacement Product or part, including a user-installable part that has been installed in accordance with instructions provided by USDD, shall remain under warranty during the Warranty Period or for ninety (90) days from the date of repair, whichever is longer. When a Product or part is exchanged, any replacement item becomes the Customer’s property and the replaced item becomes the property of USDD. Parts provided by USDD in fulfillment of its warranty obligation must be used in the same USDD Fire Station Alerting System for which the warranty claim is made.
9.3. Procedure for Warranty Claims.
9.3.1. Prior to making a Warranty claim, Customer is encouraged to review USDD’s online help resources. Thereafter, to make a valid claim hereunder, Customer must contact USDD technical support and describe the problem or defect with specificity. The first such contact must occur during the Warranty Period. USDD’s technical support contact information can be found on USDD’s web site at http://stationalerting.com/home/about-usdd/contact-usdd/. Customer must use its best efforts to assist in diagnosing defects, follow USDD’s technical instructions, and fully cooperate in the diagnostic process. Failure to do so shall relieve USDD of any further obligation hereunder.
9.3.2. Customer shall be responsible for appropriately packing and shipping Products, to USDD for repair, and shall bear all risks and costs associated withof, shipping any Product to USDD for repairthe same. USDD shall be responsible for, and bear all risks and costs of, returning any Product to Customer after repair or replacement, but Customer will be responsible for paying any customs or import duties payable upon receipt of any repaired or replacement Products. A replacement Product will be returned to Customer configured as it was when the Product was originally purchased, subject to applicable updates.
9.4. Return Material Authorization Process. If a Customer makes a warranty claim for a Product during the Warranty Period, the Customer shall provide USDD with the Product model and serial number and failure information to initiate the RMA process. Upon USDD’s issuance of the RMA, USDD will send the replacement Product, shipped postage paid ground shipping, to the address provided by Customer. RMA requests approved between 12:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time are shipped on the same business day. After 2:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time, the replacement Product is shipped on the next business day. All RMA requests are processed on the business day on which the request was received, excluding holidays. Included with the shipped package will be return shipment instructions and a pre-paid return shipping label for the Product that the Customer is returning. The original Product must be returned in the shipping box provided by USDD. No goods will be accepted for exchange or return without a pre-approved RMA number or which have not been properly packaged in USDD’s shipping box to ensure that goods are not damaged due to improper packing and the shipping process. The original Product must be shipped back within 10 days of receiving the replacement. Failure to return the original Product, or failure to return in an appropriate manner, will cause Customer to incur a replacement charge equal to full market value of the replacement Product.
9.5. No Fault Found. USDD reserves the right to charge 50% of the standard repair price if the returned Product is found to have no defect covered by the Warranty. Customer understands that this fee is intended to discourage return of Products prior to proper troubleshooting or return because the product is “old.” Product returns will not be allowed if, upon examination of the returned Product, it is determined that the Product was subjected to accident, misuse, neglect, alteration, improper installation, unauthorized repair, improper testing, or poor packaging upon return. In such event, USDD shall invoice Customer for the full market value of the replacement Product.
9.6. WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS & DISCLAIMERS.
9.6.1. USDD does not warrant that the operation of its Products or any related peripherals will be uninterrupted or error-free. USDD further does not warrant nor support any system configuration that deviates from this specific quote’s documented station system design file number.
9.6.2. USDD does not warrant or support any system not installed by G2 Trained & Certified Installation technician (installer). If Customer intends to tie this system into any 3rd-party system or devices, USDD will be unable to warrant or support the Products unless USDD has had a chance to review documented engineering assumptions and approve system integrity, performance, and reliability expectations.
9.6.3. USDD is not responsible for damage arising from Customer’s failure to follow instructions relating to the use of the Products. This Warranty does not apply to any Products, including the hardware or software, not used for its intended purpose.
9.6.4. USDD cannot warrant nor support any system not using USDD-approved Uninteruptable Power Supply Battery Backup. This Warranty does not apply to monitors or televisions manufactured by third parties. Repair or replacement of such components shall be subject exclusively to the manufacturer’s warranty, if any. Recovery and reinstallation of hardware and user data (including passwords) are not covered under this Warranty.
PROPRIETARY and CONFIDENTIAL STANDARD Ts&Cs Page 8 of 11 Packet Page 295
9.6.5. This Warranty does not apply: (a) to consumable parts, such as batteries, unless damage has occurred due to a defect in materials or workmanship; (b) to cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches, dents and broken plastic on ports; (c) to damage caused by use with non-USDD products; (d) to damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, flood, lightning, fire, earthquake or other external causes; (e) to damage caused by operating the Product outside the permitted or intended uses described by USDD; (f) to damage or failure caused by installation or service (including upgrades and expansions) performed by anyone who is not a representative of USDD or a USDD authorized installer or service provider; (g) to a Product or part that has been modified to alter functionality or capability without the written permission of USDD; (h) to Software (as defined below); (i) to any other damage caused by an event or action outside of USDD’s control, including, without limitation, Customer’s failure to apply required or recommended updatres or patches to any Software or Product; or (h) if any serial number has been removed or defaced.
LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE LIMITED WARRANTY IN SECTION 9 OF THESE TERMS AND
CONDITIONS AND ANY OTHER REMEDIES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, REMEDIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, STATUTORY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. AS PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, USDD SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL STATUTORY OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND WARRANTIES AGAINST HIDDEN OR LATENT DEFECTS.

ALL PRODUCT CLAIMS ARE LIMITED TO THOSE EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THE LIMITED WARRANTY IN SECTION 9 OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. USDD’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH THEREWITH SHALL NOT EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCTS PAID BY CUSTOMER TO USDD FOR THE PRODUCTS GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
CUSTOMER SHALL NOT BRING A LEGAL OR EQUITABLE ACTION AGAINST USDD MORE THAN ONE YEAR AFTER THE FIRST EVENT GIVING RISE TO A CAUSE OF ACTION, UNLESS A SHORTER LIMITATIONS PERIOD IS PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE LAW. USDD disclaims any representation that it will be able to repair any Hardware under this Warranty or make a product exchange without risk to or loss of the programs or data stored thereon.
SERVICE AGREEMENT. The Product being purchased hereunder is not subject to any post-Warranty service agreement or maintenance program unless specifically contracted for between USDD and Customer. USDD offers a comprehensive post-Warranty Service Agreement at additional cost. Customer should contact USDD regarding its Service Agreement and costs associated therewith.
SOFTWARE PRODUCTS. All software Products delivered by USDD to Customer or for which USDD provides access, including, without limitation, USDD’s mobile application software and Products with embedded software or firmware (collectively, “Software”) are not sold and are licensed. At all times that Customer is in compliance with the terms of these Terms and Conditions and any other agreement between the parties, Customer shall have a non-exclusive, non-transferable, fully paid license to use the Software, but only in conjunction with the Products provided by USDD and Customer’s fire station alerting system (the “License”). The terms of such Software License may be set forth in a separate software license agreement or end user license agreement provided by USDD with such Software. In no event shall Customer have any right to (or authorize or allow any third party to) distribute, sell, lend, rent, transfer, or convey the Software; grant any sublicense, lease, or other rights in the Software; decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to reconstruct, identify, or discover any source code, underlying user interface architecture or techniques, or algorithms of the Software by any means; or take any action that would cause the Software or any portion of it to be placed in the public domain.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY: Customer hereby agrees and acknowledges that USDD owns all rights, title, and interest in and to the Intellectual Property (as defined below). Customer agrees to not remove, obscure, or alter USDD’s or any third party's copyright notice, trademarks, or other proprietary rights notices affixed to or contained within or accessed in conjunction with or through USDD’s Product (as defined below). Nothing herein shall be deemed to give, transfer, or convey to Customer any rights in the Intellectual Property other than the License, as set forth above. For purposes of this Section,“Intellectual Property" means any and all rights of USDD related to USDD’s Products existing from time to time under patent law, copyright law, trade secret law, trademark law, unfair competition law, and any and all other proprietary rights, and any and all derivative works, work product, applications, renewals, extensions and restorations thereof, now or hereafter in force and effective worldwide.
REMOTE ACCESS TO THE SYSTEM.
14.1. Remote Access. USDD requires remote network access to the Customer’s Products through Secure Shell (SSH) to perform implementation and support tasks under this Agreement. To enable remote network access, the Customer will provide USDD support personnel VPN or similar remote network access to the Products for USDD support personnel (“Customer Support”) to effectively troubleshoot critical or complex problems and to expedite resolution of such issues. Remote network access is also used to install core software upgrades and customized software. USDD will only access Customer’s Products with the knowledge and consent of Customer. USDD will not access any other systems or data.
14.2. Alternative to Network Access. If the Customer elects not to provide remote network access to the Products, then USDD may not be able to perform some support functions. Customers that elect not to routinely provide network access may temporarily reinstate this access to allow USDD to perform the above services. The following services will not be performed without this access: Product software upgrades; Product software customization; Network troubleshooting assistance including packet capture and network monitoring on USDD devices; Detailed log analysis; Bulk updates to certain Product database tables; Troubleshooting that requires low-level system access or large file transfer.
14.3. Timely Access. Customers much ensure that remote access is available prior to notifying USDD of a support request. In the event that the Customer is unable to provide remote access, USDD will not be required to provide support outside those tasks that do not require remote access, and any corresponding resolution response times will not apply.
14.4. Physical Security Tokens. USDD has multiple software engineers that provide after-hours support and these engineers do not typically take security tokens from the USDD office. If the customer requires the use of physical security tokens, this may delay after hours service.
GOVERNING LAW. This proposal and any contract or agreement resulting therefrom will be governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of Arizona without regard to its conflicts of law principles.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION/ARBITRATION. Before either USDD or Customer initiate any dispute resolution process related to the Agreement, they must schedule a mandatory executive resolution conference to be held within thirty (30) days of receipt of the other party’s written request.
The conference must be attended by at least one executive from each party. At the conference, each party will present its view of the dispute in detail and the executives will enter into good faith negotiations in an attempt to resolve the dispute. If the dispute is not resolved within fifteen (15) days of the end of the conference or if one party refuses to attend the executive resolution conference, then USDD and Customer further agree that any remaining dispute between them arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, to the extent such rules are not inconsistent with this Section, in the AAA’s Phoenix regional office by a single, neutral arbitrator. Discovery may be conducted either upon mutual consent of the parties or by order of the arbitrator upon good cause being shown. In ruling on motions pertaining to discovery, the arbitrator shall consider that the purpose of arbitration is to provide for the efficient and inexpensive resolution of disputes, and the arbitrator shall limit discovery whenever appropriate to ensure that this purpose is preserved. The arbitrator shall permit dispositive motions and issue a written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions and may award damages. Any award rendered by the arbitrator will be final and binding upon USDD and Customer, and judgment may be entered upon it in accordance with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction thereof. USDD and Customer expressly and irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the Maricopa County Superior Court of Arizona for such purpose. In the event a dispute is submitted to arbitration pursuant to this Section, the prevailing party shall be entitled to the payment of its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, as determined by the arbitrator. Each of the parties shall keep all disputes and arbitration proceedings strictly confidential, except for disclosures of information required by applicable law or regulation.
PROPRIETARY and CONFIDENTIAL STANDARD Ts&Cs Page 10 of 11 Packet Page 297
FORCE MAJEURE. Except for Customer’s duty to pay sums due hereunder, neither party will be liable to the other for any failure to meet its obligations due to any Force Majeure Event. As used herein, a “Force Majeure Event” is one that is beyond the reasonable control of the nonperforming party and may include, but is not limited to: (a) delays or refusals to grant an export license or the suspension or revocation thereof, (b) embargoes, blockages, seizure or freeze of assets, or any other acts of any government that would limit a party’s ability to perform the Contract, (c) fires, earthquakes, floods, tropical storms, hurricanes, tornadoes, severe weather conditions, or any other acts of God, (d) quarantines, pandemics, or regional medical crises, (e) labor strikes, lockouts, or pandemic worker shortages, (f) riots, strife, insurrection, civil disobedience, landowner disturbances, armed conflict, terrorism or war, declared or not (or impending threat of any of the foregoing, if such threat might reasonably be expected to cause injury to people or property), and (g) shortages or inability to obtain materials or components. The party unable to fulfill its obligations due to Force Majeure will promptly (i) Notify the other in writing of the reasons for its failure to fulfill its obligations and the effect of such failure; and (ii) Use all reasonable efforts to avoid or remove the cause and perform its obligations.
If a Force Majeure Event results in a delay, then the date of performance will be extended by the period of time that the non-performing party is actually delayed or for any other period as the parties may agree in writing. In the event that a Force Majeure Event is ongoing for a period of time which is sixty (60) days or longer, USDD may provide notice to Customer that it is cancelling its Order.
ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS. This proposal shall become a binding contract between the Customer and USDD when accepted in writing by the Customer. Without limiting the foregoing, issuance by Customer of a purchase order to USDD for any of the goods or services herein described shall constitute acceptance. Any such acceptance shall be with the mutual understanding that these Terms and Conditions of this proposal are a part thereof with the same effect as though signed by both parties named herein and shall prevail over any inconsistent provision of said order.
No waiver, alteration, or modification of these terms and conditions shall be binding unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of USDD.
SEVERABILITY. In the event any provision or portion of a provision herein is determined to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected and, in lieu of such provision, a provision as similar in terms as may be legal, valid, and enforceable shall be added hereto.
WAIVER. The failure of either party to insist upon strict performance of any provision of these Terms and Conditions, or to exercise any right provided for herein, shall not be deemed to be a waiver for the future of such provision or right, and no waiver of any provision or right shall affect the right of the waiving party to enforce any provision or right herein.
NO JOINT VENTURE. The parties acknowledge that they are independent entities and nothing contained in these Terms and Conditions shall be construed to constitute either party hereto as the partner, joint venturer, employee, agent, servant, franchisee, or other representative of the other party hereto, and neither party has the right to bind or obligate the other, except as otherwise provided herein. Furthermore, nothing contained in these Terms and Conditions shall be construed to constitute Customer as an exclusive purchaser of the Products in any respect.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an amendment to the professional services agreement with Geosyntec Consultants, Inc. for supplemental soil sampling services for Campus Town Phase 1A for an amount not to exceed $62,400.00.
BACKGROUND
On June 17, 2024, the City Manager signed a contract with Geosyntec Consultants, Inc. (Geosyntec) for Environmental Consultant Services - Phase 1A Preliminary Endangerment Assessment and Phase 1B Document Review for an amount not to exceed $24,800.00. The scope of services and associated budget in the proposal included: environmental consultation, document preparation, and agency coordination services related to the properties near the intersection of Lightfighter Drive and General Jim Moore Boulevard in Seaside.
Geosyntec is an approved consultant on the City's On-Call list approved by City Council on May 16, 2024. They have experience performing environmental investigation, excavation, and reporting work in the Phase 1A Development Area. Over the last few months, it was discovered that the extent of the lead-based-paint impacts on the soil Packet Page 323
Item No. 8.O. Page 2 of 2
was wider than originally anticipated.
Geosyntec submitted a proposal on September 19, 2024, for $62,400.00. The scope of services is for additional soil sampling to delineate the extent of lead impacts previously detected during excavation. This will include soil investigations and reporting, and ongoing DTSC (Department of Toxic Substance Control) communication. Staff reviewed the scope and fee of the proposal, and found it acceptable.
Staff recommends adopting a resolution authorizing an amendment to the professional services agreement with Geosyntec Consultants, Inc. to provide supplemental soil sampling services for Campus Town Phase 1A for a total revised contract amount not to exceed $87,200.00 and written amendments such that the total agreement does not exceed $95,920.00.
A project contingency of 10% of the revised contract total ($87,200.00), or $8,720.00, is requested for unforeseen circumstances.
FISCAL IMPACT
The original professional services agreement is in the amount of $24,800.00, and was approved by the City Manager. The proposed contract amendment with Geosyntec Consultants, Inc. for additional services related to Campus Town Phase 1A is in the amount of $62,400.00. A 10% contingency adds $8,720.00 for a total of $95,920.00 All fees and costs presented by this contract do not impact the General Fund, but instead are paid for by FORA funds - Consultant Account (no. 329-8110-1030).

Seaside, California 93955
Subject: Proposal for Environmental Consulting Services Supplemental Soil Sampling – Building 4214
City of Seaside, Former Fort Ord
Lightfighter Drive & 2nd Avenue
Seaside, California
Dear Ms. Damon,
Geosyntec Consultants, Inc. (Geosyntec) is pleased to submit this proposal to the City of Seaside (Seaside), to provide supplemental soil sampling services at Campus Town Phase 1A near the intersection of Lightfighter Drive and Second Avenue, Seaside, California (Site). Seaside has acquired the Site, known as the Fort Ord Surplus II Areas, from the U. S. Department of Defense that was part of the former Fort Ord Army Base. Seaside established development areas, known as the Parcel 1A and Parcel 1B Development Areas, within the Seaside city limits. Seaside has entered into a development agreement with a master developer to implement a mixed-use development project (Campus Town). The development will include high density residential housing, single family homes, commercial business and retail, and associated public facilities such as parks, open space, and schools.
OBJECTIVE AND SCOPE OF WORK
The objective of Geosyntec’s services will be to collect supplemental soil samples from the area of the former Building 4214 to delineate the extent of lead impacts that were previously detected in the sidewalls of the excavation. The objectives will be met by implementing the scope of services described below.

City of Seaside SSI 4214 Soil update.docx
Task 1 – Supplemental Soil Investigation
To delineate the remaining extent of lead-based-paint impacts to soil in the vicinity of the Building 4214 excavation, Geosyntec proposes to advance an additional 42 borings to 3 to 4 feet below ground surface (bgs). Geosyntec will oversee a licensed drilling subcontractor who will advance the 42 borings via hand auger. Soil cuttings from hand augering will be laid out sequentially on plastic sheeting and visually logged by Geosyntec staff. Soil borings will be backfilled to ground surface with hydrated bentonite chips.
Soil samples will be collected from each boring at depths of 0.5, 2, 3, and 4 feet bgs using a clean trowel and placed in clean jars provided by the laboratory. 1 In total, up to 142 soil samples are
expected to be collected. The jarred samples will be bagged in zip-lock bags and placed in a cooler with wet ice. The samples will be transported to Enthalpy Analytical of Orange, California under standard chain-of-custody protocol for analysis of lead by United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Method 6010B, and a turn-around-time time of 48 hours will be requested.
During sample collection, Geosyntec proposes to use a portable x-ray fluorescence spectrometer (XRF) to field screen soil samples for lead concentrations. Soil sample analysis and/or collection and analysis will be performed in general accordance with USEPA Method 6200. Remaining soil cuttings will then be drummed and stored on Site for off haul by a licensed waste management company.
Also included in this task are activities to be performed in advance of the field mobilization, such as subcontractor coordination and health and safety preparation. The field work is assumed to span two mobilizations, one day each, with two field staff. The total estimated effort for this task is $37,900.
Task 2 – Supplemental Soil Investigation Report
Following receipt of the analytical results from the laboratory, Geosyntec will perform a review of the data to confirm that they are of suitable quality. Geosyntec will then prepare a letter report summarizing the methods and results of the soil sampling and laboratory analyses, conclusions, and recommendations. The report will be provided to the City of Seaside within approximately seven business days following receipt of the final data set from the laboratory. 1 Only six borings are planned to be sampled to 4 feet bgs.

City of Seaside SSI 4214 Soil update.docx
Geosyntec has assumed a total of 40 hours for this effort, for a total estimated effort of $8,500.
Task 3 – Ongoing DTSC Interaction and Project Support
To support weekly meetings with Seaside and their consultant Kimley-Horn, planning for Phase 1B, and ongoing project support, Geosyntec proposes a separate task for project team meetings, communications with DTSC, and additional project support.
Geosyntec has assumed a total of 60 hours for this effort, for a total estimated effort of $16,000.
ESTIMATED COST, TERMS, AND CONDITIONS
Geosyntec proposes to conduct these services on a time and materials basis in accordance with the attached rate schedule and terms and conditions of the Professional Services Agreement between Geosyntec and the City of Seaside executed July 3, 2024.

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.P.
TO: City Council
FROM: Sheri L. Damon, City Attorney
DATE: October 3, 2024
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN ACCESS AGREEMENT
FOR THE COURTHOUSE PROJECT
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving the Mutual Access Agreement between the California Judicial Council, City of Seaside and Marina Community Partners, LLC and authorizing the City Manager to execute and implement the agreement.
BACKGROUND
On September 21, 2023, the City Council approved the transfer of approximately 5 acres of property to the Judicial Council of California for the new Courthouse project ("Courthouse Site"). As part of this transfer, the agreement mandated that utilities such as water, sewer, and power be provided for the site.
In May 2024, the City Council authorized the City to contract with MCP/Shea to install the necessary utilities and reimburse them for the proportionate share of courthouse infrastructure, including the undergrounding of power lines along the City’s retained Main Gate property.
Currently, Divarty Road is owned by MCP and has not yet been dedicated as a public right of way. To ensure that the California Department of General Services recognizes access to the Courthouse Site from Divarty Street, a mutual access agreement has been proposed. This agreement grants the Judicial Council access to the property via Divarty Street before its dedication as a public right of way and allows MCP to enter both the Courthouse Site and City-owned property to perform infrastructure-related activities.
The City, as the current owner of the Courthouse Site and other properties that MCP needs access to for infrastructure and Divarty Road improvements, also benefits from this agreement. These infrastructure upgrades, necessary for the Courthouse, will further enhance the City's Main Gate property.

Item No.: 8.Q.
TO: City Council
FROM: Craig Malin, Interim City Manager
BY: Jose Bazua, Economic Development Director
DATE: October 3, 2024
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION TO ACCEPT AND APPROVE THE TAXING
AGREEMENT FOR TAXING ENTITY COMPENSATION FOR THE
LONG RANGE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT PLAN FROM THE
SUCCESSOR AGENCY OF THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF
THE CITY OF SEASIDE
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution to accept and approve the Taxing Agreement for taxing entity compensation from the Successor Agency of the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Seaside.
BACKGROUND
In 2012, properties once belonging to the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Seaside transferred to the Successor Agency to Redevelopment Agency of the City of Seaside (Health and Safety Code section 34175(b)).
The Successor Agency prepared a Long-Range Property Management Plan (“LRPMP”) addressing the disposition of the real property assets of the Former Agency (Health and Safety Code section 34191.3). Following the LRPMP, the properties were later transferred to the Community Redevelopment Property Trust Fund of the Successor Agency. The properties include:
• General Jim Moore Boulevard and Eucalyptus (Former First Tee Site) [No. 13] (APN: 031-151-059)
• Lightfighter Drive between First and Second Avenues (Main Gate Site) (APN 031- 151-013) [No. 14]
• First Avenue and Lightfighter Drive (Commercial/Recreation Parcel) [No. 15], Packet Page 399
Item No. 8.Q. Page 2 of 2
referred to as “Fire Station Property” (APN: 031-151-012) • Surplus II Planning Area [No. 16] (APNs: 031-151-029, 031-151-031, 031-151- 032, 031-151-039, 031-151-040, 031-261-003, 031-261-004) Pursuant to the LRPMP, these properties transferred to the City of Seaside which will in turn sell (or retain) the properties for future development. The net unrestricted proceeds of the sale of these properties from the Successor Agency to the City of Seaside will be subject to the Master Tax Agreement under consideration.
Under previous law, these proceeds were to be divided equally between the Successor Agency and the Fort Ord Reuse Authority (“FORA”). However, state law dissolved FORA and provided for a change in the distribution formula for the net unrestricted proceeds (Health and Safety Code section 33492.71). Further modifying the distribution was the passage of Assembly Bill 1486, the Surplus Land Act, in 2019 (Government Code section 54220 et seq.)
Pursuant to AB 1484, upon the sale of the property by the Successor Agency, the Agency is required to pay enforceable obligations or distribute any net unrestricted proceeds from the sale or lease to each taxing entity in an amount proportionate to its share of property tax revenue. The calculation of net unrestrictive proceeds shall take into account the transaction costs incurred by the Successor Agency in marketing the property and processing the sale.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Agreement does not affect the tax basis for the properties once they are developed. The Agreement only covers the one-time sale of the properties from the City to future developers. Approval of the Master Taxing Agreement would allocate
21.0579% of revenues to the City of Seaside.

TO THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF SEASIDE
ACCEPTING AND APPROVING THE TAXING AGREEMENT FOR TAXING
ENTITY COMPENSATION FROM THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY OF THE
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF SEASIDE
WHEREAS, on February 1, 2012, pursuant to California Health and Safety Code (“HSC”) Section 34175(b) and the California Supreme Court’s decision in Matosantos, the properties of the Former Agency transferred to the control of the Successor Agency by operation of law; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to HSC Section 34191.5, the Successor Agency prepared a Long-Range Property Management Plan (“LRPMP”) addressing the disposition of the real property assets of the Former Agency; and
WHEREAS, on May 11, 2015, the LRPMP was approved by Resolution No. 14-03 of the Oversight Board and by letter dated May 29, 2015, the State Department of Finance approved the LRPMP, as revised. Accordingly, the properties identified in the LRPMP, including the properties described below, were transferred to the Community Redevelopment Property Trust Fund of the Successor Agency; and WHEREAS, the following properties identified in the LRPMP as properties to be transferred by City for future development are subject to this Agreement:
General Jim Moore Boulevard and Eucalyptus (Former First Tee Site) [No. 13] (APN: 031-151-059)
Lightfighter Drive between First and Second Avenues (Main Gate Site) [No. 14] (APN: 031-151-013)
First Avenue and Lightfighter Drive (Commercial/Recreation Parcel) [No. 15], referred to below as the “Fire Station Property” (APN: 031-151-012) Surplus II Planning Area [No. 16](APNs: 031-151-029, 031-151-031, 031- 151-032, 031-151-039, 031-151-040, 031-261-003, 031-261-004); and WHEREAS, on June 30, 2020, FORA was dissolved and on December 31, 2020, the underlying statutory scheme to split revenues was rescinded. As a result of the dissolution of FORA and elimination of the land sale revenue sharing requirements formerly applicable to FORA and the City and its Successor Agency, there will be a potential increase in the net unrestricted proceeds available to Taxing Entities from the sale of Fort Ord related Future Development Properties; and Packet Page 401
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Seaside accepts and approves the Taxing Agreement for Taxing Entity Compensation from the Successor Agency of the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Seaside.

RECITALS:
A. Pursuant to Assembly Bill (“AB”) X1 26 (enacted in June 2011), as modified by the California Supreme Court’s decision in California Redevelopment Association, et al. v.
Ana Matosantos, et al., 53 Cal.4th 231(2011) (“Matosantos”), the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Seaside (“Former Agency”) was dissolved as of February 1, 2012, the Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Seaside (“Successor Agency”) was established, and an oversight board to the Successor Agency was established, which was subsequently replaced by a countywide oversight board (each, an “Oversight Board”).
B. On February 1, 2012, pursuant to California Health and Safety Code (“HSC”) Section 34175(b) and the California Supreme Court’s decision in Matosantos, the properties of the Former Agency transferred to the control of the Successor Agency by operation of law.
C. Pursuant to HSC Section 34191.5, the Successor Agency prepared a LongRange Property Management Plan (“LRPMP”) addressing the disposition of the real property assets of the Former Agency. As provided Health and Safety Code section 34191.3, the LRPMP governs and supersedes all other provisions of the Dissolution Act (AB X1 26, as modified and amended) relating to the disposition of the real property assets of the Former Agency.
D. On May 11, 2015, the LRPMP was approved by Resolution No. 14-03 of the Oversight Board and by letter dated May 29, 2015, the State Department of Finance approved the LRPMP, as revised. Accordingly, the properties identified in the LRPMP, including the Packet Page 404
-2-
Future Development Properties described below, were transferred to the Community Redevelopment Property Trust Fund of the Successor Agency.
E. The following properties (individually, a “Future Development Property” and collectively, the “Future Development Properties”) identified in the LRPMP as properties to be transferred by City for future development are subject to this Agreement:
General Jim Moore Boulevard and Eucalyptus (Former First Tee Site) [No. 13] Lightfighter Drive between First and Second Avenues (The Projects at Main Gate Site APN 031-151-013) [No. 14]
First Avenue and Lightfighter Drive (Commercial/Recreation Parcel) [No. 15], referred to below as the “Fire Station Property”
Surplus II Planning Area [No. 16]
F. The LRPMP provides, among other things, that the Successor Agency will transfer the Future Development Properties to the City of Seaside for future development, subject to entering into this Agreement with the Taxing Entities for the distribution of the net unrestricted proceeds received from the sale of such properties.
G. The LRPMP (see page 50) further provides that all land sales revenues received by the Fort Ord Reuse Authority (“FORA”), on the one hand, and the City or Successor Agency on the other, are to be divided equally between FORA and the City or Successor Agency. This division was also set forth in state law and codified in implementation agreements between FORA and the City/Successor Agency.
H. On June 30, 2020, FORA was dissolved and on December 31, 2020, the underlying statutory scheme to split revenues was rescinded. As a result of the dissolution of FORA and elimination of the land sale revenue sharing requirements formerly applicable to FORA and the City and its Successor Agency, there will be a potential increase in the net unrestricted proceeds available to Taxing Entities from the sale of Fort Ord related Future Development Properties.
I. Pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 33492.71(c)(1)(D), upon dissolution of the FORA, “the amount allocated pursuant to this section shall continue to be paid to the accounts of the authority insofar as needed to pay principal and interest or other amounts on debt that was incurred by the authority. Funds that would be allocated pursuant to this section that exceed the amounts necessary to pay debt service on authority debt shall be divided as follows: 54 percent shall be allocated to the city or county redevelopment agency that establishes the project area; 38 percent shall be allocated to the county; and 8 percent shall be allocated to other affected taxing entities.” J. In 2019, following the State Department of Finance’s approval of the LRPMP, the State Legislature enacted Assembly Bill 1486, which expanded the scope of the State Surplus Land Act (Gov. Code Sections 54220 et seq.) (“Surplus Land Act”) to require compliance with certain procedures before a City, Successor Agency or other local agency may dispose of land not needed for the local agency’s use. The Surplus Land Act amendments apply to, among other properties, former redevelopment agency lands conveyed by successor Packet Page 405
-3-
agencies to cities for future development. The new Surplus Land Act procedural requirements, which were not contemplated by the LRPMP, require formal findings by a local agency’s legislative body declaring land as surplus or exempt surplus, the transmittal of notices of availability to designated housing sponsors and public agencies with jurisdiction over land designated as surplus, and good faith negotiations if entities express interest in purchasing and developing the surplus land, including for affordable housing purposes.
K. Subject to compliance with requirements of State law, including the Surplus Land Act as amended, the Net Unrestricted Proceeds (as defined herein) from the sale of the above- referenced Future Development Properties (other than the Monterey County Courthouse Site and Fire Station Property discussed below) will be distributed to all of the affected Taxing Entities on a pro rata basis in proportion to each Taxing Entity’s respective share of the property tax base at the time of a sale of the applicable Future Development Property. As set forth in the LRPMP, the calculation of the Net Unrestricted Proceeds will take into account the transaction costs incurred by the City in marketing the Future Development Property, and processing the sale or lease, as well as the costs incurred by the City in carrying, maintaining, preparing and improving each such property for development, including but not limited to, building demolition or contaminated soils removal.
L. An approximately 5-acre portion of the Future Development Property designated as Projects at Main Gate [No. 14] and depicted in Exhibit A attached hereto (“Monterey County Courthouse Site”) has been approved for transfer to the State of California for use as a future Monterey County courthouse. While the transfer of the Monterey County Courthouse Site to the State is a “no cost conveyance”, the State’s development of that site will increase the residual land value of the remainder of the Projects at Main Gate [No. 14] property and therefore the no cost conveyance to the State will be of benefit to the Taxing Entities.
M. The Future Development Property designated as First Avenue and Lightfighter Drive (Commercial/Recreation Parcel) [No. 15] and described in Exhibit B attached hereto (“Fire Station Property”) has been identified as a potential site for a second City of Seaside fire station to support the overall development of Fort Ord lands located within the boundaries of the City. In lieu of transferring the Fire Station Property to one or more third parties for future development, the City desires to retain the Fire Station Property for its own use and development, subject to payment of appropriate compensation to the Taxing Entities as set forth herein.
N. The Parties desire to enter into this Agreement to, among other things, (i) approve the “no cost conveyance” and transfer of the Monterey County Courthouse Site to the State of California, (ii) set forth the terms under which City may retain the Fire Station Property for its own use and development, and (iii) set forth the terms under which the Net Unrestricted Proceeds from the sale of the remaining Future Development Properties will be distributed to all Taxing Entities on a pro rata basis in proportion to each entity’s respective share of the property tax base.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants provided herein, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Packet Page 406
-4-
the Parties hereby agree as follows:
AGREEMENTS:
Section 1. Recitals; Purpose. The above recitals are true and correct and are a substantive part of this Agreement. The purpose of this Agreement is to address the allocation of certain prospective net unrestricted proceeds among the Taxing Entities that share in the property tax base for property located within the redevelopment project areas previously administered by the Former Agency.
Section 2. Future Development Properties Conveyed to City. Pursuant to HSC Section 34191.5(c)(2), the Successor Agency has conveyed, and the City has accepted, all of the interest in and to the Future Development Properties.
Section 3. Portion of Parcel No. 14 to be Conveyed at No Cost to State of California.
The Parties acknowledge and agree that development of a courthouse at the Monterey County Courthouse Site will increase the residual land value of the remainder of the Projects at Main Gate [No. 14] property and, therefore, the City’s “no cost conveyance” of the Monterey County Courthouse Site to the State is of benefit to the Taxing Entities.
Section 4. Parcel No. 15 to be Retained by City. In consideration of the City’s distribution to the Taxing Entities through the Auditor Controller of the sum of $0, (“Fire Station Property Payment”), which amount the Parties agree represents the current fair market value of the Fire Station Property, the Successor Agency shall convey, and the City shall accept, for its own use and development, all of the right, title and interest in and to the Fire Station Property.
The Fire Station Property Payment will be distributed to all of the Taxing Entities on a pro rata basis in proportion to each entity’s respective share of the property tax base as of the Effective Date. City shall pay the Fire Station Property Payment to the County Auditor Controller within thirty (30) days following the Effective Date. For avoidance of doubt, upon County Auditor Controller’s receipt of the Fire Station Property Payment, City shall have no further obligation to market the Fire Station Property for sale or lease to third parties and, in the event City ever sells or leases the Fire Station Property to one or more third parties for other uses in the future, all proceeds of such sale or lease may be retained by City, and the other Taxing Entities shall not be entitled to any portion of such proceeds.
Section 5. Sale Procedures and Proceeds. The Parties acknowledge that the City is obligated to convey the Future Development Properties for development consistent with the City of Seaside General Plan and the applicable Redevelopment Plan as adopted by the Former Agency (collectively, the “Plans”). Within a time frame determined by the City to yield a financially feasible and marketable development, and in accordance with the restrictions set forth herein, including compliance with the Surplus Land Act, the City shall use diligent good faith efforts to select a developer for each Future Development Property (other than the portion of Parcel No. 14 comprising the Monterey County Courthouse Site and the Parcel No. 15 Fire Station Property addressed in Sections 3 and 4 above), and to dispose of each such Future Development Property in accordance with a purchase and sale agreement or disposition and development agreement that enables development of each such property in accordance with the Packet Page 407
-5-
Plans.
Section 6. Compensation. Consistent with the LRPMP, City will remit the Net Unrestricted Proceeds (defined below), if any, generated from the sale of each Future Development Property (other than the portion of Parcel No. 14 comprising the Monterey County Courthouse Site and the Parcel No. 15 Fire Station Property addressed in Sections 3 and 4 above) to the County Auditor-Controller for distribution to the Taxing Entities in accordance with each Taxing Entity’s respective share of the property tax base at the time of disposition of such property. For purposes of this Agreement “Net Unrestricted Proceeds” shall mean the proceeds of sale received by the City from the sale of each Future Development Property (other than the portion of Parcel No. 14 comprising the Monterey County Courthouse Site and the Parcel No. 15 Fire Station Property addressed in Sections 3 and 4 above) less: (i) costs and expenses incurred by City in connection with the management and disposition of such property, including, without limitation, costs incurred for property management, maintenance, building demolition, hazardous materials remediation, insurance, marketing, appraisals, brokers’ fees, escrow and survey charges, closing costs, title insurance, attorneys’ and consultants’ fees, and other reasonable costs incurred, including reasonable compensation for City staff performing functions associated with the management, maintenance and disposition of the Future Development Properties, and (ii) any proceeds of sale that are restricted by virtue of the source of funds (e.g. grant funds or the proceeds of bonds) that were used for the original acquisition of one or more of the Future Development Properties.
The City will remit the Net Unrestricted Proceeds within ten (10) business days of the City’s receipt thereof to the County Auditor-Controller for remittance by the Auditor-Controller. The Auditor-Controller will distribute the net proceeds to the taxing agencies when received and is required to report the information to the State Department. The Taxing Entities and their respective percentage shares of the base property tax as of January 1, 2024, are listed in Exhibit C attached hereto and incorporated herein.
Section 7. Effective Date. The effective date of this Agreement will be the date that all of the Parties have executed this Agreement.

Lessor shall have no obligation to pay any Purchase Price unless all reasonable conditions established by Lessor (“Funding Conditions”) have been satisfied, including, without limitation, the following: (a) Lessee has signed and delivered the Schedule and its Schedule A-1; (b) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (c) no material adverse change shall have occurred in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the related regulations and rulings thereunder (collectively, the “Code”); (d) no material adverse change shall have occurred in the financial condition of Lessee or any Supplier; (e) the Equipment is reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and is free and clear of any Liens (except Lessor’s Liens); (f) all representations of Lessee in the Lease remain true, accurate and complete; and (g) Lessor has received all of the following documents, which shall be reasonably satisfactory, in form and substance, to Lessor: (1) evidence of insurance coverage required by the Lease, (2) an opinion of Lessee’s counsel; (3) reasonably detailed invoices for the Equipment; (4) Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) financing statements; (5) copies of resolutions by Lessee’s governing body, duly authorizing the Lease and incumbency certificates for the person(s) who will sign the Lease; (6) such documents and certificates relating to the tax-exempt interest payable under the Lease (including, without limitation, IRS Form 8038G or 8038GC) as Lessor may request; and (7) such other documents and information previously identified by Lessor or otherwise reasonably requested by Lessor.
6. TERMINATION FOR GOVERNMENTAL NON-APPROPRIATIONS.
1. For each Lease, Lessee represents and warrants: that it has appropriated and budgeted the necessary funds to make all Rent Payments required pursuant to such Lease for the remainder of the fiscal year in which the Lease Term commences; and that it intends to make Rent Payments for the full Lease Term as scheduled on the applicable Schedule A-1 so long as funds are appropriated in each fiscal year by its governing body. Lessee reasonably believes that moneys in an amount sufficient to make all Rent Payments can and will lawfully be appropriated and made available therefor. All Rent Payments shall be payable out of the general funds of Lessee or out of other funds legally available therefor. Lessor agrees that the Leases will not be general obligations of Lessee and that the Leases shall not constitute pledges of either the full faith and credit of Lessee or the taxing power of Lessee.
2. If Lessee’s governing body fails to appropriate sufficient funds in any fiscal year for Rent Payments or other payments due under a Lease and if other funds are not available for such payments, then a “Non-Appropriation Event” shall be deemed to have occurred. If a Non-Appropriation Event occurs, then: (a) Lessee shall give Lessor immediate notice of such Non-Appropriation Event and provide written evidence of such failure by Lessee’s governing body; (b) on the Return Date, Lessee shall return to Lessor all, but not less than all, of the Equipment covered by the affected Lease, at Lessee’s sole expense, in accordance with Section 21 hereof; and (c) the affected Lease shall terminate on the Return Date without penalty or expense to Lessee, provided, that Lessee shall pay all Rent Payments and other amounts payable under the affected Lease for which funds shall have been appropriated or are otherwise available, provided further, that Lessee shall pay month-to-month rent at the rate set forth in the affected Lease for each month or part thereof that Lessee fails to return the Equipment under this Section 6.2. “Return Date” means the last day of the fiscal year for which appropriations were made for the Rent Payments due under a Lease.
7. NO WARRANTY BY LESSOR. THE EQUIPMENT IS SOLD “AS IS”. LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LESSOR DID NOT MANUFACTURE THE EQUIPMENT. LESSOR DOES NOT
REPRESENT THE MANUFACTURER, OWNER, OR DEALER, AND LESSEE SELECTED THE EQUIPMENT BASED UPON LESSEE’S OWN JUDGMENT. LESSOR MAKES NO WARRANTIES,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE OR AS TO THE EQUIPMENT’S VALUE, DESIGN, CONDITION, USE, CAPACITY OR DURABILITY. LESSEE AGREES THAT REGARDLESS OF CAUSE,
LESSOR IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR, AND LESSEE WILL NOT MAKE ANY CLAIM AGAINST
LESSOR FOR, ANY DAMAGES, WHETHER CONSEQUENTIAL, DIRECT, SPECIAL OR INDIRECT INCURRED BY LESSEE IN CONNECTION WITH THE EQUIPMENT OR THIS MASTER LEASE – LEASE PURCHASE AGREEMENT. NEITHER THE MANUFACTURER, THE DEALER, NOR ANY SALESPERSON, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF THE DEALER OR MANUFACTURER, IS LESSOR’S AGENT OR HAS ANY AUTHORITY TO SPEAK FOR LESSOR OR TO BIND LESSOR IN ANY WAY. For and during the Lease Term, Lessor hereby assigns to Lessee any manufacturer’s or Supplier’s product Packet Page 434
warranties, express or implied, applicable to any Equipment and Lessor authorizes Lessee to obtain the customary services furnished in connection with such warranties at Lessee’s sole expense. Lessee agrees that (a) all Equipment will have been purchased by Lessor in accordance with Lessee’s specifications from Suppliers selected by Lessee, (b) Lessor is not a manufacturer or dealer of any Equipment and has no liability for the delivery or installation of any Equipment, (c) Lessor assumes no obligation with respect to any manufacturer’s or Supplier’s product warranties or guaranties, (d) no manufacturer or Supplier or any representative of said parties is an agent of Lessor, and (e) any warranty, representation, guaranty or agreement made by any manufacturer or Supplier or any representative of said parties shall not be binding upon Lessor.
8. TITLE; SECURITY INTEREST.
1. Upon Lessee’s acceptance of any Equipment under its Lease, title to the Equipment shall vest in Lessee, subject to Lessor’s security interest therein and all of Lessor’s other rights under such Lease including, without limitation, Sections 6, 20 and 21 hereof.
2. As collateral security for the Secured Obligations, Lessee hereby grants to Lessor a first priority security interest in any and all of the Equipment (now existing or hereafter acquired) and any and all proceeds thereof. Lessee agrees to execute and deliver to Lessor all necessary documents to evidence and perfect such security interest, including, without limitation, Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) financing statements and any amendments thereto.
3. “Secured Obligations” means Lessee’s obligations to pay all Rent Payments and all other amounts due and payable under all present and future Leases and to perform and observe all covenants, agreements and conditions (direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, or existing or hereafter arising) of Lessee under all present and future Leases.
9. PERSONAL PROPERTY. All Equipment is and will remain personal property and will not be deemed to be affixed or attached to real estate or any building thereon.
10. MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION. Lessee agrees it shall, at its sole expense: (a) repair and maintain all Equipment in good condition and working order, in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions, and supply and install all replacement parts or other devices when required to so maintain the Equipment or when required by applicable law or regulation, which parts or devices shall automatically become part of the Equipment; and (b) use and operate all Equipment in a careful manner in the normal course of its operations and only for the purposes for which it was designed in accordance with the manufacturer’s warranty requirements, and comply with all laws and regulations relating to the Equipment. If any Equipment is customarily covered by a maintenance agreement, Lessee will furnish Lessor with a maintenance agreement by a party reasonably satisfactory to Lessor. No maintenance or other service for any Equipment will be provided by Lessor. Lessee will not make any alterations, additions or improvements (“Improvements”) to any Equipment without Lessor’s prior written consent unless the Improvements may be readily removed without damage to the operation, value or utility of such Equipment, but any such Improvements not removed prior to the termination of the applicable Lease shall automatically become part of the Equipment.
11. LOCATION; INSPECTION. Equipment will not be removed from, or if Equipment is rolling stock its permanent base will not be changed from, the Location without Lessor’s prior written consent which will not be unreasonably withheld. Upon reasonable notice to Lessee, Lessor may enter the Location or elsewhere during normal business hours to inspect the Equipment.
12. LIENS, SUBLEASES AND TAXES.
1. Lessee shall keep all Equipment free and clear of all Liens except those Liens created under its Lease. Lessee shall not sublet or lend any Equipment or permit it to be used by anyone other than Lessee or Lessee’s employees.
2. Lessee shall pay when due all Taxes which may now or hereafter be imposed upon any Equipment or its ownership, leasing, rental, sale, purchase, possession or use, upon any Lease or upon any Rent Payments or any other payments due under any Lease. If Lessee fails to pay such Taxes when Packet Page 435
due, Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to pay such Taxes. If Lessor pays any such Taxes, then Lessee shall, upon demand, immediately reimburse Lessor therefor. “Taxes” means present and future taxes, levies, duties, assessments or other governmental charges that are not based on the net income of Lessor, whether they are assessed to or payable by Lessee or Lessor, including, without limitation (a) sales, use, excise, licensing, registration, titling, gross receipts, stamp and personal property taxes, and (b) interest, penalties or fines on any of the foregoing.
13. RISK OF LOSS.
1. Lessee bears the entire risk of loss, theft, damage or destruction of any Equipment in whole or in part from any reason whatsoever (“Casualty Loss”). No Casualty Loss to any Equipment shall relieve Lessee from the obligation to make any Rent Payments or to perform any other obligation under any Lease. Proceeds of any insurance recovery will be applied to Lessee’s obligations under this Section
13. 2. If a Casualty Loss occurs to any Equipment, Lessee shall immediately notify Lessor of the same and Lessee shall, unless otherwise directed by Lessor, immediately repair the same.
3. If Lessor determines that any item of Equipment has suffered a Casualty Loss beyond repair (“Lost Equipment”), then Lessee shall either: (a) immediately replace the Lost Equipment with similar equipment in good repair, condition and working order free and clear of any Liens (except Lessor’s Liens) and deliver to Lessor a bill of sale covering the replacement equipment, in which event such replacement equipment shall automatically be Equipment under the applicable Lease; or (b) on the next scheduled Rent Payment date, pay Lessor (i) all amounts owed by Lessee under the applicable Lease, including the Rent Payment due on such date plus (ii) an amount equal to the applicable Termination Value set forth in the Payment Schedule to the applicable Lease. If Lessee is making such payment with respect to less than all of the Equipment under a Lease, then Lessor will provide Lessee with the pro rata amount of the Rent Payment and Termination Value to be paid by Lessee with respect to the Lost Equipment.
4. Lessee shall bear the risk of loss for, shall pay directly, and shall defend against any and all claims, liabilities, proceedings, actions, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), damages or losses arising under or related to any Equipment, including, but not limited to, the possession, ownership, lease, use or operation thereof. These obligations of Lessee shall survive any expiration or termination of any Lease. Lessee shall not bear the risk of loss of, nor pay for, any claims, liabilities, proceedings, actions, expenses (including attorney’s fees), damages or losses which arise directly from events occurring after any Equipment has been returned by Lessee to Lessor in accordance with the terms of the applicable Lease or which arise directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor.
14. INSURANCE.
1. (a) Lessee at its sole expense shall at all times keep all Equipment insured against all risks of loss or damage from every cause whatsoever for an amount not less than the Termination Value of the Equipment. Proceeds of any such insurance covering damage or loss of any Equipment shall be payable to Lessor as loss payee. (b) The Total Amount Financed as set forth on the Schedule A-1 does not include the payment of any premium for any liability insurance coverage for bodily injury and/or property damage caused to others and no such insurance will be purchased by Lessor. (c) Lessee at its sole expense shall at all times carry public liability and property damage insurance in amounts reasonably satisfactory to Lessor protecting Lessee and Lessor from liabilities for injuries to persons and damage to property of others relating in any way to any Equipment. Proceeds of any such public liability or property insurance shall be payable first to Lessor as additional insured to the extent of its liability, and then to Lessee.
2. All insurers shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lessor. Lessee shall promptly deliver to Lessor satisfactory evidence of required insurance coverage and all renewals and replacements thereof.
Each insurance policy will require that the insurer give Lessor at least 30 days prior written notice of any cancellation of such policy and will require that Lessor’s interests remain insured regardless of any act, error, misrepresentation, omission or neglect of Lessee. The insurance maintained by Lessee shall be primary without any right of contribution from insurance which may be maintained by Lessor.
15. PURCHASE OPTION. Upon 30 days prior written notice by Lessee to Lessor, and so long as there is no Event of Default then existing, Lessee shall have the option to purchase all, but not less than Packet Page 436
all, of the Equipment covered by a Lease on any Rent Payment due date by paying to Lessor all Rent Payments then due (including accrued interest, if any) plus the Termination Value amount set forth on the Payment Schedule to the applicable Lease for such date. Upon satisfaction by Lessee of such purchase conditions, Lessor shall release its Lien on such Equipment and Lessee shall retain its title to such Equipment “AS-IS, WHERE-IS,” without representation or warranty by Lessor, express or implied, except for a representation that such Equipment is free and clear of any Liens created by Lessor.
16. LESSEE’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. With respect to each Lease and its Equipment, Lessee hereby represents and warrants to Lessor that:
(a) Lessee has full power, authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Lease and to perform its obligations under the Lease, and all such actions have been duly authorized by appropriate findings and actions of Lessee’s governing body;
(b) (b) the Lease has been duly executed and delivered by Lessee and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Lessee, enforceable in accordance with its terms; (c) the Lease is authorized under, and the authorization, execution and delivery of the Lease complies with, all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations (including, but not limited to, all open meeting, public bidding and property acquisition laws) and all applicable judgments and court orders; (d) the execution, delivery and performance by Lessee of its obligations under the Lease will not result in a breach or violation of, nor constitute a default under, any agreement, lease or other instrument to which Lessee is a party or by which Lessee’s properties may be bound or affected; (e) there is no pending, or to the best of Lessee’s knowledge threatened, litigation of any nature which may have a material adverse effect on Lessee’s ability to perform its obligations under the Lease; and
(f) Lessee is a state, or a political subdivision thereof, as referred to in Section 103 of the Code, and Lessee’s obligation under the Lease constitutes an enforceable obligation issued on behalf of a state or a political subdivision thereof.
17. TAX COVENANTS. Lessee hereby covenants and agrees that:
(a) Lessee shall comply with all of the requirements of Section 149(a) and Section 149(e) of the Code, as the same may be amended from time to time, and such compliance shall include, but not be limited to, keeping a complete and accurate record of any assignments of any Lease and executing and filing Internal Revenue Form 8038G or 8038GC, as the case may be, and any other information statements reasonably requested by Lessor;
(b) Lessee shall not do (or cause to be done) any act which will cause, or by omission of any act allow, any Lease to be an “arbitrage bond” within the meaning of Section 148(a) of the Code or any Lease to be a “private activity bond” within the meaning of Section 141(a) of the Code; and (c) Lessee shall not do (or cause to be done) any act which will cause, or by omission of any act allow, the interest portion of any Rent Payments to be or become includable in gross income for Federal income taxation purposes under the Code.
(d) If Lessor either (i) receives notice, in any form, from the IRS; or (ii) reasonably determines, based on an opinion of independent tax counsel selected by Lessor and approved by Lessee, which approval Lessee shall not unreasonably withhold, that Lessor may not exclude the interest component of any Rent Payment under a Tax-Exempt Lease from federal gross income because Lessee breached a covenant contained herein, then Lessee shall pay to Lessor, within 30 days after Lessor notifies Lessee of such determination, the amount which, with respect to Rent Payments previously paid and taking into account all penalties, fines, interest and additions to tax (including all federal, state and local taxes imposed on the interest component of all Rent Payments under such Tax-Exempt Lease due through the date of such event) that are imposed on Lessor as a result of the loss of the exclusion, will restore to Lessor the same after-tax yield on the transaction evidenced by such Tax-Exempt Lease (assuming tax at the highest marginal corporate tax rate) that it would have realized had the exclusion not been lost. Additionally, Packet Page 437
Lessee agrees that upon the occurrence of such an event with respect to a Tax-Exempt Lease, it shall pay additional rent to Lessor on each succeeding Rent Payment due date in such amount as will maintain such after-tax yield to Lessor. Lessor’s determination of the amount necessary to maintain its after-tax yield as provided in this subsection (b) shall be conclusive (absent manifest error). Notwithstanding anything in a Tax-Exempt Lease to the contrary, any payment that Lessee is required to make pursuant to this subsection (b) shall be made only from Legally Available Funds.
18. ASSIGNMENT.
1. Lessee shall not assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, nor grant any Lien on, nor otherwise dispose of, any Lease or any Equipment or any interest in any Lease or Equipment.
2. Lessor may assign its rights, title and interest in and to any Lease or any Equipment, and/or may grant or assign a security interest in any Lease and its Equipment, in whole or in part, to any party at any time. Any such assignee or lien holder (an “Assignee”) shall have all of the rights of Lessor under the applicable Lease. LESSEE AGREES NOT TO ASSERT AGAINST ANY ASSIGNEE ANY
CLAIMS, ABATEMENTS, SETOFFS, COUNTERCLAIMS, RECOUPMENT OR ANY OTHER SIMILAR DEFENSES WHICH LESSEE MAY HAVE AGAINST LESSOR. Unless otherwise agreed by Lessee in writing, any such assignment transaction shall not release Lessor from any of Lessor’s obligations under the applicable Lease. An assignment or reassignment of any of Lessor’s right, title or interest in a Lease or its Equipment shall be enforceable against Lessee only after Lessee receives a written notice of assignment which discloses the name and address of each such Assignee. Lessee shall keep a complete and accurate record of all such assignments in the form necessary to comply with Section 149(a) of the Code. Lessee agrees to acknowledge in writing any such assignments if so requested.
3. Each Assignee of a Lease hereby agrees that: (a) the term Secured Obligations as used in Section 8.3 hereof is hereby amended to include and apply to all obligations of Lessee under the Assigned Leases and to exclude the obligations of Lessee under any Non-Assigned Leases; (b) said Assignee shall have no Lien on, nor any claim to, nor any interest of any kind in, any Non-Assigned Leases; and (c) Assignee shall exercise its rights, benefits and remedies as the assignee of Lessor (including, without limitation, the remedies under Section 20 of the Master Lease) solely with respect to the Assigned Leases. “Assigned Leases” means only those Leases which have been assigned to an Assignee pursuant to a written agreement; and “Non-Assigned Leases” means all Leases excluding the Assigned Leases.
4. Subject to the foregoing, each Lease inures to the benefit of and is binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
19. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. For each Lease, “Event of Default” means the occurrence of any one or more of the following events as they may relate to such Lease: (a) Lessee fails to make any Rent Payment (or any other payment) as it becomes due in accordance with the terms of the Lease, and any such failure continues for ten days after the due date thereof; (b) Lessee fails to perform or observe any of its obligations under Sections 12.1, 14 or 18.1 hereof; (c) Lessee fails to perform or observe any other covenant, condition or agreement to be performed or observed by it under the Lease and such failure is not cured within 30 days after receipt of written notice thereof by Lessor; (d) any statement, representation or warranty made by Lessee in the Lease or in any writing delivered by Lessee pursuant thereto or in connection therewith proves at any time to have been false, misleading or erroneous in any material respect as of the time when made; (e) Lessee applies for or consents to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, conservator or liquidator of Lessee or of all or a substantial part of its assets, or a petition for relief is filed by Lessee under any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or a petition in a proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law is filed against Lessee and is not dismissed within 60 days thereafter; or (f) Lessee shall be in default under any other Lease or under any other financing agreement executed at any time with Lessor.
20. REMEDIES. If any Event of Default occurs, then Lessor may, at its option, exercise any one or more of the following remedies:
(a) Lessor may require Lessee to pay (and Lessee agrees that it shall pay) all amounts then currently due under all Leases and all remaining Rent Payments due under all Leases during the fiscal year Packet Page 438
in effect when the default occurs together with interest on such amounts at the highest lawful rate from the date of Lessor’s demand for such payment.
(b) Lessor may require Lessee to promptly return all Equipment to Lessor in the manner set forth in Section 21 (and Lessee agrees that it shall so return the Equipment), or Lessor may, at its option, enter upon the premises where any Equipment is located and repossess such Equipment without demand or notice, without any court order or other process of law and without liability for any damage occasioned by such repossession;
(c) Lessor may sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any Equipment, in whole or in part, in one or more public or private transactions, and if Lessor so disposes of any Equipment, then Lessor shall retain the entire proceeds of such disposition free of any claims of Lessee, provided, that the net proceeds of any such disposition shall be applied to amounts payable by Lessee under clause (a) above of this Section only to the extent that such net proceeds exceed the applicable Termination Value set forth in the applicable Schedule A-1;
(d) Lessor may terminate, cancel or rescind any Lease as to any and all Equipment; (e) Lessor may exercise any other right, remedy or privilege which may be available to Lessor under applicable law or, by appropriate court action at law or in equity, Lessor may enforce any of Lessee’s obligations under any Lease; and/or

None of the above remedies is exclusive, but each is cumulative and in addition to any other remedy available to Lessor. Lessor’s exercise of one or more remedies shall not preclude its exercise of any other remedy. No delay or failure on the part of Lessor to exercise any remedy under any Lease shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any remedy preclude any other exercise thereof or the exercise of any other remedy.
21. RETURN OF EQUIPMENT. If Lessor is entitled under the provisions of any Lease, including any termination thereof pursuant to Sections 6 or 20 of this Master Lease, to obtain possession of any Equipment or if Lessee is obligated at any time to return any Equipment, then (a) title to the Equipment shall vest in Lessor immediately upon Lessors notice thereof to Lessee, and (b) Lessee shall, at its sole expense and risk, immediately de-install, disassemble, pack, crate, insure and return the Equipment to Lessor (all in accordance with applicable industry standards) at any location in the continental United States selected by Lessor.

Until Equipment is returned as required above, all terms of the applicable Lease shall remain in full force and effect including, without limitation, obligations to pay Rent Payments and to insure the Equipment. Lessee agrees to execute and deliver to Lessor all documents reasonably requested by Lessor to evidence the transfer of legal and beneficial title to such Equipment to Lessor and to evidence the termination of Lessee’s interest in such Equipment.
22. LAW GOVERNING. Each Lease shall be governed by the laws of the state of the lessee (the “State”).
23. NOTICES. All notices to be given under any Lease shall be made in writing and either personally delivered or mailed by certified mail to the other party at its address set forth herein or at such address as the party may provide in writing from time to time.

Re: Lease Schedule No. 1198960-1 dated October 18, 2024, together with its Master Lease- Purchase Agreement dated October 18, 2024, by and between the above-named Lessee and the above-named Lessor Gentlemen:
I have acted as counsel to Lessee with respect to the Lease Schedule, the Master Lease-Purchase Agreement and all other agreements described above or related thereto (collectively, the “Agreements”) and various related matters, and in this capacity have reviewed a duplicate original or certified copy of the Agreements and such other documents as I have deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion.
Based upon the examination of such documents, it is my opinion that:
1. Lessee is a political subdivision of the State of California (the “State”) duly organized, existing and operating under the Constitution and laws of the State.
2. Lessee is authorized and has power under State law to enter into all of the Agreements, and to carry out its obligations thereunder and the transactions contemplated thereby.
3. The Agreements and all other documents related thereto have been duly authorized, approved, and executed by and on behalf of Lessee, and each of the Agreements is a valid and binding contract of Lessee enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent limited by State and Federal law affecting creditor’s remedies and by bankruptcy, reorganization or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights.
4. The authorization, approval and execution of the Agreements and all other proceedings of Lessee relating to the transactions contemplated thereby have been performed in accordance with all applicable Local, State and Federal laws (including open meeting laws and public bidding and property acquisition laws).
5. To the best of my knowledge, there is no litigation or proceeding pending before any court, administrative agency or governmental body, that challenges: the organization or existence of Lessee; the authority of its officers; the proper authorization; approval and execution of any of the Agreements or any documents relating thereto; the appropriation of monies to make payments under the Packet Page 450
Agreements for the current fiscal year; or the ability of Lessee otherwise to perform its obligations under the Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby.
6. Lessee is a political subdivision of the State as referred to in Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the related regulations and rulings thereunder.
Lessor, its Assignee and any of their assigns may rely upon this opinion.
Sincerely,
To Be Signed after approval

C. PROGRAMMATIC INFORMATION
1. Program Overview & Objectives
The purpose of the FY 2024 SLCGP Local & Tribal Program is to assist local units of government, as defined in 6 U.S.C. §101(13), and federally recognized tribes address cybersecurity risks and threats to information systems, improve security of critical infrastructure and resilience of the services these entities provide to their communities.
Through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) of 2021, Congress established the State and Local Cybersecurity Improvement Act, which created the State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program and appropriated funds to be awarded to eligible state and territorial administrative agencies over a period of four federal fiscal years.
Each year, beginning with federal fiscal year 2022 through federal fiscal year 2025, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS)/Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) announces a NOFO for the SLCGP. The funds provided by this Program assist SLT governments to manage and reduce systemic cyber risks, including through the establishment of a strong foundation to build a sustainable cybersecurity program. Grant funds are intended to supplement existing fiscal resources and are not guaranteed long-term sustainability solutions. Projects funded under this Program are expected to be reasonably sustained after the end of the performance period without the expectation to receive future grant funds.
As the SAA for this Program, Cal OES established a subcommittee of the California Cybersecurity Task Force, called the Cybersecurity Investment Planning Subcommittee (CCTF-CIPS), in order to meet specified requirements under the IIJA and SLCGP NOFO, including the development and submission of a statewide cybersecurity plan, which was submitted by Cal OES and approved by CISA on September 29, 2023. The CCTF-CIPS serves as California’s cybersecurity planning committee for the purposes of the SLCGP and participates in Program activities such as updating the cybersecurity plan and developing strategies for allocating funds available through the SLCGP to projects that align with the approved cybersecurity plan.
Packet Page 472
FISCAL YEAR 2024-25
SL COMPETITIVE FUNDING OPPORTUNITY
PAGE 9 OF 18
SLCGP provides funding to implement projects that address one or more of the following objectives established by CISA to accomplish the overarching goal of the Program:
Objective 1 – Governance and Planning – Develop and establish appropriate governance structures, as well as plans, to improve capabilities to respond to cybersecurity incidents and ensure continuity of operations.
Objective 2 – Assessment and Evaluation – Identify areas for improvement in SLT cybersecurity posture based on continuous testing, evaluation, and structured assessments.
Objective 3 – Mitigation – Implement security protections commensurate with risk (outcomes of Objectives 1 and 2), using the best practices as described in element 5 of the required 16 elements of the cybersecurity plans listed in the IIJA and those further listed on page 14 of the NOFO.
Objective 4 – Workforce Development – Ensure organization personnel are appropriately trained in cybersecurity, commensurate with their responsibilities as suggested in the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education.
2. Program Priorities & Requirements
All proposed projects must support activities that effectively contribute to the local or tribal government’s capability to prevent, prepare for, mitigate against, respond to, and recover from cyber threats against information systems owned and/or operated by the unit of government, align with the objectives, priorities, and cybersecurity plan elements described in the California SLCGP Cybersecurity Plan, and meet the criteria listed in the FY 2022 and FY 2023 SLCGP NOFOs. a. SLCGP National Priorities
In developing projects for the FY 2024 SLCGP Local & Tribal Program, Applicants should describe projects that address areas for improvement identified by the local or tribal government using the whole community approach as they relate to cybersecurity capabilities and especially projects that address implementation Packet Page 473
FISCAL YEAR 2024-25
SL COMPETITIVE FUNDING OPPORTUNITY
PAGE 10 OF 18
of one or more of the key Cybersecurity Best Practices, as appropriate to their organization:
• Implement multi-factor authentication.
• Implement enhanced logging.
• Data encryption for data at rest and in transit.
• End use of unsupported/end of life software and hardware that are accessible from the internet.
• Prohibit use of known/fixed/default passwords and
credentials.
• Ensure ability to reconstitute systems (backups).
• Actively engage in bidirectional sharing between CISA and SLT entities in cyber relevant time frames to drive down cyber risk.
• Migration to the .gov internet domain.
Educational institution Subrecipients (e.g., school districts) using the .edu Internet domain are exempted from transitioning to the .gov Internet domain. All other Subrecipients of SLCGP funding are highly encouraged to transition to a .gov Internet domain over time. Additional information on migrating to the .gov Internet domain can be found on the DotGov Program website.
DHS/FEMA does not prescribe a minimum funding amount for these priorities. However, all SLCGP Applicants are encouraged to consider how FY 2024 SLCGP Local & Tribal Program funding can be used to support these priority areas as they apply to the local or tribal government’s specific needs and the needs of the whole community. Subrecipients of funding through SLCGP are strongly encouraged to eventually adopt and use all eight of the Cybersecurity Best Practices listed above.
Additional information about these cybersecurity best practices can be found in the FY 2022 and FY 2023 SLCGP NOFOs, Section A, 10, c.
Packet Page 474
FISCAL YEAR 2024-25
SL COMPETITIVE FUNDING OPPORTUNITY
PAGE 11 OF 18
b. SLCGP Statewide Priorities
The CCTF-CIPS, in its SLCGP Cybersecurity Plan, described an intention to focus on the following initiatives, with the corresponding cybersecurity plan element from the IIJA noted in parentheses, to strengthen cybersecurity across California using the FY 2022-23 SLCGP funds:
• Enhance the preparation, response, and resiliency of
information systems, applications, and user accounts
(Element 3);
• Implement a process of continuous cybersecurity risk factors and threat mitigation practices prioritized by degree of risk (Element 4);
• Develop and coordinate strategies to address cybersecurity risks and threats (Element 14);
• Identify and mitigate any gaps in the cybersecurity
workforce, enhance recruitment and retention efforts, and bolster the knowledge, skills, and abilities of personnel with reference to the National Initiative for Cybersecurity
Education – Workforce Framework for Cybersecurity (Element 8);
• Assess and mitigate Critical Infrastructure and Key Resources risks and threats impacting local jurisdictions (Element 10); • Ensure continuity of operations including by conducting exercises (Element 7); and
• Ensure rural communities have adequate access to, and participation in, plan activities (Element 15).
SLCGP Applicants are strongly encouraged to incorporate one or more of these statewide priorities in their project description for the project(s) proposed using Program funds. Additional information about the cybersecurity plan elements is available in the FY 2022 SLCGP NOFO, Appendix C: Cybersecurity Plan, Required Elements.
