Under the terms provided, Comcast will provide fiber internet at 20 Mbps for 36 months at a rate of $1,269 per month. 20 Mbps is the minimum Comcast will provide for this service. The monthly cost of this service has been included in the budget and will be paid out of the allocation for internet services each billing cycle. An up front construction cost of $6,541 is also required to install this service. The cost of construction and installation will be paid out of the budgeted amounts for capital projects for the site. At this time, the Velocity Collaboration Center is serviced by AT&T for internet. AT&T provides 6 Mbps of internet via 4 T1 lines to the facility at a cost of $1,524 per month, which also includes phone service via IP Flex Lines. We are bound to this service under our contract with AT&T until August of 2015. Due to the increase in tenants at Velocity, additional bandwidth is required to meet demand. As Comcast and AT&T are the only possible providers to the site, a formal bid process was not required by the City processes. We have requested pricing information for increased bandwidth from AT&T. The feedback provided is that the available bandwidth via T1 lines caps out at 12 Mbps, which would increase our monthly cost to $3,494 per month. Upgrades to alternate service in order to provide more bandwidth from AT&T requires us to pay early termination charges to cancel our current contract, fund construction, and enter a new contract for AT&T Ethernet. Therefore, based on cost and service level, administration is recommending approval to utilize Comcast for additional bandwidth needs. There will be a period of duplicate service, during which time, it is expected that bandwidth from both providers will be used until the expiration of the AT&T contract. As additional bandwidth is needed, the fiber option with Comcast provides ease of scalability for future increases.

GENERAL COMMENTS AGREEMENT This Comcast Enterprise Services Sales Order Form ("Sales Order") shall be effective upon acceptance by Comcast. This Sales Order is made a part of the Comcast Enterprise Services Master Services Agreement, entered between Comcast and the undersigned and is subject to the Product Specific Attachment for the Service(s) ordered herein, located at http://business.comcast.com/enterprise-terms-of-service, (the "Agreement") . Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized words shall have the same meaning as in the Agreement. E911 NOTICE Comcast Business Class Trunking Service may have the E911 limitations specified below: • The National Emergency Number Association (NENA), a 911 industry organization that makes recommendations for standardized services relating to E911, has issued guidelines that state “The PBX owner is responsible for creating customer records, preferably in NENA standard format, that identify caller locations.” To facilitate Customer’s compliance with these guidelines and with associated state and local requirements related to provision of Automatic Location Information (ALI) for E911 services, Comcast offers two options: a. Comcast will send to the ALI database or Subscriber Location Database (SLDB) the main billing telephone number and the main address provided by Customer; or b. Customer may choose to sign up for up to 10 Emergency Location Information Numbers (ELINs) that Customer could assign to zones within Customer’s premises that would be separately identified to the E911 call taker. The location information, such as a specific floor, side of a building, or other identifying information, could assist emergency responders to more quickly reach the appropriate location. Customer is solely responsible for programming it’s PBX system to map each station to one of these numbers, and for updating the system as necessary to reflect moves or additions of stations within the premises. Comcast will send the assigned ELINs to the ALI or SLDB database, as is appropriate. • Many jurisdictions require businesses using multi-line telephone systems to program their systems to transmit specific location information for 911 calls. Customer bears sole responsibility to ensure that it identifies and complies with all such requirements. In any event, if Customer does not maintain E911 records in a timely and accurate manner, the E911 call taker may not receive proper location information, and emergency responders may be delayed or even prevented from timely reaching the caller’s location. • Battery Back Up - The Integrated Access Device (IAD) provided by Comcast is not equipped with battery backup. It is Customer’s responsibility to ensure adequate back-up power is provided to ensure service continuity during a power outage, as employees would otherwise be unable to use the Services, including dialing 9-1-1, when power is unavailable. • Calls using the Service, including calls to 911, may not be completed if there is a problem with network facilities, including network congestion, network/equipment/power failure, or another technical problem. • All questions should be directed to 1-800-391-3000. E911 Service, Private Branch Exchange, and Direct Inward Dial Service. By signing below, Customer acknowledges, agrees to and accepts the terms and conditions of this Sales Order.
