12

VENDOR and the proposed subcontractor.

LAFPP reserves the right to reject any Third Party Equipment in the event such Third Party Equipment does not meet the System Specifications, or, at the time of receipt, is no longer manufactured or supported by the third party manufacturer. The terms and conditions of any purchase order hereunder shall be null and void except to the extent that it identifies the items shipped and the destination therefore.

7.2 Dates of Delivery and Installation. VENDOR may request from LAFPP its consent to extend the delivery and installation dates for a particular Phase of the System later than those specified in the detailed Implementation Workplan, by written request to LAFPP at least fourteen(14) calendar days prior to the delivery or installation date(s) specified in the detailed Implementation Workplan. LAFPP shall not unreasonably withhold said consent. If LAFPP reasonably determines that LAFPP will be unable to prepare LAFPP Facilities or install LAFPP Equipment prior to the scheduled date for installation of the System, absent an Event of Force Majeure as set forth in Section 18.1 hereof, LAFPP shall so notify VENDOR as soon as LAFPP becomes aware of such delay. In view of any such delay, the parties shall work together to promptly remedy such delay, and if any such delay causes a change to the Implementation Workplan the parties shall comply with Section 8 .

Section 8

INSTALLATION AND TESTING; ACCEPTANCE

8.1 Installation. In general, VENDOR will install the Licensed Programs in accordance with the Implementation Workplan, the first version of which is set forth in VENDOR Proposal § , and according to the System Specifications set forth in VENDOR Proposal § , (the "Implementation Workplan"). Upon delivery of each Phase of the System, VENDOR shall, in accordance with the Implementation Workplan: (a) cause the System, excluding the Licensed Programs, to be installed and tested; (b) install the Licensed Programs on the System and LAFPP Equipment; (c) internally test the System and Licensed Programs to validate operation of the System and the Licensed Programs; and (d) demonstrate to LAFPP that each component of the System, including but not limited to the Licensed Programs and the Interfaces, are each operational and perform substantially in accordance with the Implementation Workplan, the Licensed Programs documentation, the documentation for the Interfaces, other documentation originating from VENDOR and relating to test plans, System Specifications, and the Installation Test Specifications set forth in the VENDOR Proposal § . After meeting these requirements for a Phase, VENDOR shall then issue a signed, written Certificate of Installation for the Phase to LAFPP.

8.2 Implementation Workplan. Within sixty (60) days of the Project Start Date, VENDOR and LAFPP will prepare a detailed Implementation Workplan from the preliminary Implementation Workplan set forth in VENDOR Proposal § . The detailed Implementation Workplan shall include a description of the tasks to be performed, the party responsible, an estimate of the work effort required to perform each task, together with scheduled start and completion dates, the milestone events and interdependent milestone events, the "Critical Path Milestones" and the common event and completion date for such Critical Path Milestones, identification of all interdependent activities, and a completion date for each Phase ofthe project. VENDOR Proposal §

contains the first version of the Implementation

Workplan. There may be a separate Implementation Workplan for each Phase. When LAFPP and VENDOR have reached agreement as to any detailed Implementation Workplan, it will be executed by both LAFPP and VENDOR and be deemed a part of this Agreement. Changes to an Implementation Workplan must be made in writing and signed by both the Executive Director and an authorized officer for VENDOR. VENDOR will not perform work beyond the scope of work outlined and agreed upon in the Implementation Workplan without LAFPP's prior written authorization except for work VENDOR performs “at risk”, which is not compensated for by LAFPP unless and until subsequently approved in writing by LAFPP. The Implementation Fees specified in the chart in Attach m ent B are contingent upon the following assumptions: (a) The scope of the tasks performed by VENDOR will not substantially go beyond those stated in the initial version of an Implementation Workplan attached to this Agreement; (b) the parties shall use cooperative efforts to complete their respective tasks under each Implementation Workplan; and(c) LAFPP's Project Manager, identified in Section 21.4(c ) , will have overall project authority, working closely with the assigned VENDOR Project Manager, identified in Section 21.4(c) , who will provide project management and technical direction. Decisions which may affect the scope of the project or delay completion will be discussed with the LAFPP Project Manager and the VENDOR Project Manager. VENDOR is responsible for updating and maintaining all

16

Implementation Workplan(s) and for updating and maintaining the System Specifications throughout the implementation process.

8.3 LAFPP-Caused Delays. VENDOR acknowledges that LAFPP may not be able to meet the time frames specified in an Implementation Workplan or that LAFPP may determine that it is necessary to delay and/or modify the timing and sequencing of the implementation as provided in an Implementation Workplan. While LAFPP is committed to the project and will use reasonable efforts to provide staff and resources necessary to satisfy all such time frames, LAFPP shall not be held responsible or deemed in default for any delays in System implementation provided LAFPP uses its reasonable efforts to accomplish its designated responsibilities and obligations as set forth in the applicable Implementation Workplan. In addition, LAFPP may, at its option, delay implementation and installation of the System, or any part thereof LAFPP agrees to adjust the applicable Implementation Workplan and Critical Path Milestones deadlines to take into account any LAFPP-caused delays; provided, however, that VENDOR shall continue to perform any and all activities not affected by such LAFPP-caused delay. In the event LAFPP's adjustment to an Implementation Workplan causes VENDOR scheduling conflicts or personnel unavailability, LAFPP and VENDOR shall prepare a revised mutually agreeable Implementation Workplan which may delay the commencement and completion dates of the project and shall take into consideration the readjusted time frames and any necessary resequencing of the activities. Such readjustment, rescheduling or modification of the Project shall be at no additional cost to LAFPP.

8.4 Critical Path Milestones. If VENDOR fails or has failed to meet a Critical Path Milestone due solely to a failure of VENDOR, then, in addition to other rights and remedies provided to LAFPP herein, including, without limitation, the right to terminate this Agreement as defined in Section 20.3 , VENDOR shall, at no additional cost to LAFPP, provide LAFPP with as many additional and appropriate VENDOR personnel as may be required or necessary to meet the Critical Path Milestones, or, if VENDOR has already failed to meet one or more Critical Path Milestones, complete the Critical Path Milestones within a readjusted time frame agreed upon by LAFPP and VENDOR. If LAFPP does not terminate this Agreement, then LAFPP shall still be entitled to any other remedy available to LAFPP for such failure.

8.5 Acceptance Testing by LAFPP Following Installation. After VENDOR issues a Certificate of Installation for a particular Phase of the System, LAFPP shall, with full cooperation and assistance from VENDOR, conduct all such inspections and tests of the Phase as LAFPP may deem necessary or appropriate to determine whether any Defects exist in the Phase as installed and whether the Phase as installed materially complies with all of the Installation Test Specifications and Phase specifications as set forth in the System Specifications and detailed Implementation Workplan. Such test shall be over a duration mutually agreed upon by LAFPP and VENDOR within limits of a minimum period of twenty (20) days and a maximum of sixty (60) days, per Phase, from the date a Certificate of Installation is issued, and extendible thereafter as set forth herein (the “Acceptance Period”).Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 8 . 5 , VENDOR shall comply with all the acceptance testing requirements contained in Workbook 8 of the RFP. The LAFPP specified Live Date for the application Phase and/or System shall be

17

specified on the Certificate of Acceptance. VENDOR shall correct any Defects that LAFPP deems material during the Acceptance Period. LAFPP shall be deemed to have accepted and approved the particular Phase or System only upon LAFPP's delivery to VENDOR of a signed, written Certificate of Acceptance indicating that LAFPP is satisfied and that the Phase, as completed, materially performs in accordance with the System Specifications. If at the end of the Acceptance Period, LAFPP has not issued a signed Certificate of Acceptance to VENDOR for that Phase, LAFPP may, in its sole discretion, extend the Acceptance Period, or terminate this Agreement; provided, however, that LAFPP will respond within a reasonable time after receipt of a written request by VENDOR issued after the end of the Acceptance Period to provide VENDOR with LAFPP's status of approval or disapproval for that Phase. The Certificate of Acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld by LAFPP. If a Certificate of Acceptance for a Phase is signed and delivered by LAFPP, VENDOR shall sign said Certificate, with both parties receiving a copy thereof. "Acceptance" of a Phase shall be deemed to occur upon receipt by LAFPP of the original Certificate signed by authorized signatories of both LAFPP and VENDOR. The parties acknowledge that Defects may exist at the time of a Live Date, or shortly thereafter, and therefore, the Phase and System are not deemed "completed" until a Certificate of Completion has been issued in accordance with Section 8. 6 hereof. Acceptance of the System will occur when a Certificate of Completion for every Phase has been executed by authorized signatories of both VENDOR and LAFPP and delivered to VENDOR by LAFPP.

VENDOR shall include desired acceptance points on its updated project chart to be presented to LAFPP within sixty (60) days after the Project Start Date. If LAFPP elects to terminate the Agreement under this Section 8. 5 , then LAFPP shall be entitled to remedies as defined in S ection 20.4 , LAFPP Rights and Remedies.

8.6 Completion. For a period of sixty (60) days after the Live Date for a particular Phase or the System specified in a Certificate of Acceptance or until a Certificate of Completion has been issued, LAFPP shall promptly provide VENDOR with written notice of any Defect in the Phase or the entire System. VENDOR shall correct all such Defects, demonstrate to LAFPP that correction of such Defects has been made, and after so demonstrating correction, shall issue to LAFPP a written Certificate of Completion indicating that either (i) no Defects are known to exist in the Phase and/or System; or (ii) if LAFPP is willing to accept the Phase and/or System with some of the known Defects still in existence, VENDOR shall fix the remaining Defects during the Warranty Period. VENDOR agrees that it shall be responsible for timely resolution of Defects remaining after the Warranty Period but reported by LAFPP to VENDOR within the Warranty Period. If within sixty (60) days after executing a Certificate of Acceptance a Certificate of Completion is not received or in the case of Defects that cannot be cured within such sixty (60) days, VENDOR has not promptly commenced curing the Defect and does not thereafter proceed with due diligence to cure the Defect within sixty (60) days thereafter, VENDOR shall be deemed to have breached this Agreement, with such breach subject to the provisions of Section 2 0 hereof, and LAFPP may, in its sole discretion, have the right to terminate this Agreement and/or any license granted or service rendered hereunder without obligation, despite any provision to the contrary herein to pay further amounts to VENDOR. If the Agreement is terminated as a result of such breach, then LAFPP shall be entitled to remedies as defined in Section 20. 4 . Completion of a Phase shall not occur until a Certificate of Completion for the Phase is executed by authorized signatories of both VENDOR and LAFPP and said signed Certificate is delivered to VENDOR by LAFPP. Completion of the System shall not occur until a Certificate of Completion for the

18

System is executed by authorized signatories of both VENDOR and LAFPP and said signed Certificate is delivered to VENDOR by LAFPP. The timing of Installation, Acceptance, and Completion shall be as set forth on Attach m ent J .

Section 9

CUSTOM PROGRAMMING

9.1 Customizations. To meet the requirements of System Specifications, the parties acknowledge that the Licensed Programs must be modified and/or additional software must be written. VENDOR agrees to develop all Customizations prior to installation of each Phase of the System and in accordance with the Implementation Workplan.

9.2 Change Orders. If, prior to the date of any Certificate of Completion, changes are required to the System Specifications that are outside the scope of the original System Specifications, the parties shall follow the Change Order Procedures set forth in VENDOR Proposal § and LAFPP RFP. So long as the parties have provided written agreement as to the Change Order, VENDOR agrees to perform the work necessary to satisfy the Change Order per a mutually agree-upon schedule, and LAFPP agrees to pay VENDOR the agreed upon additional fees required for such work, if any, in accordance with Attach m ent B , and acknowledges that the additional fees, if any, may be above the fixed price amount referred to in Attach m ent B .

9.3 Ownership. VENDOR agrees that LAFPP owns all right, title and interest in all computer programs, specifications, operating instructions, notes and all other documentation conceived or first reduced to practice by VENDOR and all subcontractors, alone or with others, in performance of VENDOR's obligation hereunder, (collectively the “Work Product”). Work Product shall not include the Base Programs and Third Party Software. VENDOR will, during the term of this Agreement and thereafter, execute all papers and do all things deemed necessary by LAFPP to insure that LAFPP obtains full right, title and interest in and to such Work Product. LAFPP hereby grants VENDOR a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Work Product during the term of this Agreement and solely for the purpose of VENDOR fulfilling its obligations hereunder. All Work Product is owned by LAFPP and shall be delivered to LAFPP or otherwise disposed of by VENDOR only as directed by LAFPP. Upon termination of this Agreement or upon request by LAFPP, VENDOR shall provide LAFPP with all copies of such Work Product, purge all of its computer systems of all such Work Product, and certify in writing within ten (10) days that all such copies have been provided to LAFPP and purged from its computer systems. VENDOR agrees that if any Work Product is copyrightable, it shall be deemed to be a “work made for hire” as such term is defined in the Copyright Laws of the United States. If, for any reason, any such copyrightable work is excluded from the definition of “work made for hire”, VENDOR hereby assigns and conveys to LAFPP the entire right, title and interest in and to such work. VENDOR shall cooperate with LAFPP or its designees and to execute documents of assignment, declarations and other documents which may be prepared by LAFPP, and take other necessary actions as reasonably directed by LAFPP to effect the foregoing or to perfect, protect or enforce any proprietary rights resulting from or related to this Agreement. This Section 9.3 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

VENDOR shall provide to and install for the cost specified in Attach m ent B of this Agreement, any and all Interfaces in accordance with the quantity noted, and, to the degree currently identifiable, the Interface Requirements set forth in LAFPP RFP, and in accordance with the terms and time frames provided in the Implementation Workplan. In the event VENDOR must program or develop an Interface, such Interface development or programming shall be considered Customizations as defined herein.

10.2 Modification of Interfaces. If an Interface problem occurs with Licensed Programs, software provided by third parties, an Enhancement or other system enhancement or modification or if a modification to the Interfaces is required, VENDOR agrees that it will cooperate with the third parties and/or other system vendors and/or modify the Interfaces as necessary to meet the requirements of the Interface warranties set forth in Section 14. 7 . Prior to Acceptance of the Interfaces, the resolution of such Interface problems and the development and/or installation of such Interface modifications shall be completed, at no additional cost to LAFPP, unless such modification materially alters the Interface Specifications. As used in this Section 1 0 , "Acceptance of the Interfaces" occurs concurrently with Acceptance of the Phase, as defined in Section 8 . That includes the provision of the Interfaces, provided, however, that the requirements for the Interfaces set forth in this S ection 10 are met.

10.3 Interface Specifications and Documentation. Prior to Acceptance of the Interfaces, VENDOR shall provide to LAFPP documentation including, without limitation, record layouts and specifications for each and every Interface (both Standard Interfaces and Custom Programmed Interfaces) obtained by LAFPP from VENDOR pursuant to this Agreement, and based on the Interface Specifications developed by LAFPP and VENDOR after the Project Start Date and/or listed in an exhibit hereto, as applicable (the “Interface Documentation”). LAFPP's receipt of such Interface Documentation is a condition of Acceptance of the Interfaces.

VENDOR warrants that the Third Party Equipment and Third Party Software provided to LAFPP as a part of the System shall conform to the applicable specifications for the particular Third Party Equipment or Third Party Software, and to any representations made by VENDOR and attached hereto as an exhibit, and/or as represented by the applicable third party manufacturer of the Third Party Equipment or Third Party Software. VENDOR represents and warrants that the Third Party Equipment and Third Party Software delivered hereunder is covered by the applicable manufacturer’s warranty and that maintenance service is available to LAFPP from such manufacturer or its agent.

14.13 New Equipment. VENDOR represents and warrants that all Third Party Equipment and replacement or repair parts delivered to LAFPP hereunder shall be new, i.e., unused and not reconditioned or refurbished. To the extent that the passage of time, prior to the purchase of hardware of software, results in improved products being available for the same cost to VENDOR as the Third Party Equipment originally proposed by VENDOR, VENDOR shall provide the improved product to LAFPP at no additional charge.

14.14 Applicable Laws. Except as otherwise set forth herein, VENDOR will, when known by VENDOR, make LAFPP aware of changes to applicable federal and California, laws, statutes, rules and regulations that may impact the System. VENDOR will make changes to the System for compliance with federal and California laws, statutes, rules and regulations at no additional charge to LAFPP. Additionally, VENDOR will consider and support shared costs of Enhancements as outlined in Section 13.7 herein.

Section 16

LAFPP'S USE AND PROTECTION OF TRADE SECRETS

16.1 Acknowledgment of Proprietary Materials; Limitations on Use. LAFPP acknowledges that the Base Programs, and all associated intellectual property rights, are asserted by VENDOR to be the property of VENDOR and that VENDOR holds the copyright interests therein. LAFPP further acknowledges that the Source Code of the Base Programs is treated by VENDOR as secret and proprietary information of VENDOR of substantial value, and LAFPP shall treat such information so received in confidence and shall not use, copy, disclose, nor permit any LAFPP Personnel to use, copy, or disclose the same for any purpose that is not specifically authorized under this Agreement; provided, however, that should LAFPP and VENDOR be unable to reach an accord on an agreement for the continued maintenance of the System, such covenant shall not be interpreted to prohibit LAFPP from exercising the Source Code license for the Licensed Programs as provided in Section 19.2 and retaining reputable expert third-party entities to maintain the System and from disclosing to such entities such information as is necessary to allow them to maintain the System, so long as such maintenance entities shall undertake in writing to observe all applicable restrictions set forth in this Section 16 with respect to such information as may be so furnished to them by LAFPP, such entities agree in writing that VENDOR may enforce the terms and conditions of this Agreement as to confidentiality and license restrictions against such entities, and such entities are not a direct competitor of VENDOR. Nothing in this Section 16.1 shall preclude LAFPP from demonstrating the operation of the System to third parties.

16.2 Proprietary Legends. LAFPP shall not remove any copyright notice or other proprietary or restrictive notice or legend contained or included in any material provided by VENDOR, and LAFPP shall reproduce and copy all such information on all copies made hereunder, including such copies as may be necessary for archival or backup purposes; provided, however, that this does not include any obligation to reproduce any copyright notice or other restrictive notice or legend on any documents that are produced as a result of using the System.

16.3 Limitations on Confidentiality. The restrictions set forth in Section 16.1 through 16.3 respecting confidentiality of the Licensed Programs shall not apply to any portion of the Licensed Programs which: (a) is in or becomes part of the public domain without breach of this

27

Agreement or violation of any applicable law; or (b) is required to be disclosed by LAFPP pursuant to any order or directive of a court or governmental agency of competent jurisdiction, provided LAFPP has furnished VENDOR prompt notice of such directive or order prior to disclosure.

16.5 Proprietary Information. The VENDOR acknowledges that while performing its obligations under this Agreement it may have access to trade secrets, confidential personnel and other information, or proprietary information owned or maintained by LAFPP, including but not limited to LAFPP's data, member personal data, processes, methods, knowledge, financial information, or other information relating to LAFPP's activities or operations (the "Proprietary Information"). VENDOR shall keep Proprietary Information confidential and, except as authorized by LAFPP in writing, VENDOR shall only use Proprietary Information to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Upon cessation of work or upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, or earlier upon LAFPP's request, VENDOR will return all documents, data and other materials in its control that contain or relate to the Proprietary Information to LAFPP and purge all Proprietary Information from VENDOR's computer systems. VENDOR shall only disclose the Proprietary Information to its employees or subcontractors that have a need to know the Proprietary Information to perform the obligations set forth in this Agreement, provided, however, that all the requirements of Section 5.5 are met. Proprietary Information does not include information that VENDOR can demonstrate by written documentation: (a) is rightfully known to VENDOR prior to negotiations leading to this Agreement; or (b) is independently developed by VENDOR without any reliance on any Proprietary Information; or (c) is or later becomes part of the public domain or is lawfully obtained by VENDOR from a third party without breach of this Agreement or any applicable law. LAFPP does not grant VENDOR any right or license in LAFPP's data or Proprietary Information under this Agreement except as expressly provided. The VENDOR acknowledges that the disclosure of Proprietary Information by the VENDOR will cause irreparable injury to LAFPP and/or its members that is not adequately compensable in monetary damages. Accordingly, LAFPP may seek and will be entitled to injunctive relief without any requirement to post bond or other security therefore in any court of competent jurisdiction for the breach or threatened breach of this S ection 16. 5 , in addition to any other remedies available in law or equity.

16.6 Survival of Terms. The provisions of this Section 16 shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason.

b. Replace or modify for LAFPP the System, the Licensed Programs, or such infringing portion thereof in a timely manner so that it no longer infringes or misappropriates such patent, copyright, trade secret, or other proprietary right, so long as the utility or performance of the System is not adversely affected by such replacement or modification and the System continues to materially conform with the System Specifications.

In the event of any such postponement, all dates of performance by VENDOR under this Agreement shall be extended for a corresponding period.

18.4 Limitation on Period of Force Majeure. Unless the performance by either party of its obligations under this Agreement is delayed by the occurrence of an Event of Force Majeure for a period of more than six (6) months (and such nonperformance is excused under the foregoing provisions), no Event of Force Majeure shall be an excuse for permanent nonperformance but shall be an excuse only for delays in performance and only to the extent that such delays are directly attributable to such cause. Should any Event of Force Majeure delay performance in any material respect for a period of more than six (6) months, either party shall have the option to rescind this Agreement upon notice to the other party.

30

of interest or cross-liability clause, and shall be primary for all purposes.

VENDOR shall provide LAFPP with such items in a form deemed suitable by LAFPP upon acceptance by LAFPP of each Phase as set forth in Section 8 and with each fix or enhancement to the Licensed Programs through the warranty period and during any maintenance period beyond that. Further, VENDOR shall provide instructions for operation of the System, including a detailed description of the third party software and hardware required for its operation as delivered to LAFPP, and the proper building of the System. The Source Code shall be treated as part of the Licensed Programs except as explicitly set forth in this Agreement. The Source Code including any modifications or changes to the Source Code and any derivative works prepared from the Source Code shall be subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to LAFPP's use of the Licensed Programs, including but not limited to Sections 2 and 1 6 , as well as those restrictions to LAFPP's use of the Source Code explicitly set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that should VENDOR no longer support the Licensed Programs, dissolve, or cease to do business, or if this Agreement is terminated by LAFPP, LAFPP and/or its contractors may copy, modify, create derivative works, publish, distribute, and otherwise use the Source Code for LAFPP's own internal data processing needs.

LAFPP’s acceptance of a phase will be contingent upon this requirement being met. Any subcontractor developed source code must similarly be escrowed. In addition, the source code for any third party software that is delivered and/or licensed to LAFPP as part of the System must be escrowed on LAFPP’s behalf if, at the time of final turnover and acceptance of the System to LAFPP, that software product has ever previously been escrowed for the benefit of any other client of the third party provider.

Source Code and documentation so maintained shall be kept current. Deposit shall be

31

made no less frequent than annually on the anniversary of this Agreement. The escrow account shall remain in force through the term of this Agreement and shall not be canceled or modified without written agreement of both parties. In addition to those conditions defined in Attach m ent L, LAFPP shall also have the right to acquire the Source Code in the event that VENDOR ceases to exist for reasons other than those specified in Attach m ent L or in the event VENDOR discontinues its software support/maintenance services as provided herein.

In the event the Escrow Agent resigns, or should VENDOR choose to designate another Escrow Agent during the term of this Agreement, VENDOR shall have the right to designate another Escrow Agent under an agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Attach m ent L upon concurrence of LAFPP.

In the event a condition defined in Attach m ent L or one set forth hereinabove occurs, VENDOR agrees to release the Source Code to LAFPP as provided in Attach m ent L and to grant LAFPP a limited license to use the Source Code. LAFPP shall also have the right to join or form a consortium of VENDOR customers who have a valid license to use the Licensed Programs, in order to support continuing LAFPP operations and for maintenance, modification, and enhancement of the Source Code.

Upon termination of this Agreement by VENDOR after the initial term, or any annual extension thereafter, VENDOR shall obtain the right to provide the Source Code to LAFPP at no charge and LAFPP shall have all rights to maintain and enhance that Source Code for internal LAFPP use. VENDOR or any third party licensor shall retain proprietary rights of ownership and LAFPP shall continue to protect such rights.
