Manufacturer Relationship:We are a Double Diamond Associate with NEC Corporation of America; and have many successful deployments throughout the public and private sectors over that past 8 years. Implementation Plan and Product Delivery:Considering we maintain the current PBX for the City of East Wenatchee; deployment will be a simple task. Once a date has been selected for the porting of telephone numbers to the new service, we coordinate a seamless transition. Once contracts are signed, the equipment order is placed, and phones and related hardware ship within 3 business days. We provision all services and devices in advance of the installation. The deployment process generally takes 2-3 weeks to complete from the time of contract acceptance. The new telephones will be deployed side-by-side the existing telephones prior to the changeover of services. The old phones will continue to operate until the number port has completed and once the number port is complete, the new phones will begin to ring, and the old phones can then be uninstalled. The receive phone calls. Installation will be performed on-site by Interwest personnel. Training:This proposal includes training for both system administrators on managing the system, and on phone and application usage. While on-site training is included in the proposal, web-based training is an option at no additional charge if that is preferred. Pricing Information and Training:The included proposal for cloud-based VoIP services is a detailed summary of the product and included feature sets, as well as the upfront and monthly recurring costs for system purchase and deployment. This is a turnkey proposal and includes an itemized list of all taxes and fees associated. Software Installation and Updates:Software updates to the cloud services are deployed automatically on the back-end servers. Users leveraging any of the provided client applications are Exhibit A City of East Wenatchee : Telephone System RFP Response Page 2 prompted to update their software once a new version is available. This occurs without any intervention by City personnel. Maintenance: We provide local 24/7/365 support, and the recurring support is included in the monthly subscription for services. There are no additional charges for technical support and training after the initial installation. Hardware Installation: The Yealink T54W telephones are PoE compatible, but also come with an AC wall adapter if PoE network switches are not available. These telephones are also WiFi compatible in the event there is no nearby ethernet jack available to use. Hardware specification sheets are attached. Documentation: There is an in-depth knowledge base available to all administrators for system feature configuration and use. YouTube videos on the phones and applications for end-users are also available upon request. No cost for additional documentation required by the City.

NEC UNIVERGE BLUE® Master Service Agreement, RSA, End User (200501) Attachment 1 Enhanced 911 Service - Disclosures, Notices and Disclaimers IMPORTANT: EMERGENCY 911 CALLING INFORMATION This document provides very important information about emergency 911 calling using the Internet phone service of NEC Cloud Communications America, Inc.NEC as part of NEC UNIVERGE® BLUE CONNECT. This document also to ensure Your safety and the safety of Your employees and visitors. Capitalized terms used in this document but not otherwise defined have their respective meanings set forth in the Master Service Agreement between You and NEC.Note that this document is incorporated into the terms of Your Master Service Agreement and creates a legally binding obligation on You. Dear Customer: Emergency NEC differ from the emergency calling services provided by a traditional telephone company. These differences may have an adverse impact upon the ability or timeliness of 911 responders to respond to or assist You or others in the event of an emergency. In addition, due to limitations on technology, the location reported by NECto the public safety dispatcher for Your telephones may not include ions below. As part of the process of subscribing to our voice services, You provide us with the street address, city, and state NEC voice service. Our customers have access to either basic 911 or E911 service depending on their service location: If You are a customer located in an area where the applicable emergency center offers E911 service, then, when You dial 911, Your NEC telephone number and registered address are sent by NEC to the emergency center, where public safety dispatchers have access to this information in order to send help and call You back if necessary. However, if You are a customer located in an area where the applicable emergency center only offers basic 911 service, then, when You dial 911, the emergency center is not equipped to automatically receive Your telephone number and address, and public safety dispatchers answering the call may not be able to access Your NEC telephone number and/or registered address. Therefore, in this situation, You must be prepared to supply this information on the call. Until You supply the public safety dispatchers with Your phone number and address, the dispatcher may not be able to send help, and they may not be able to call You back if the call is disconnected or dropped. For the purposes of 911, and to ensure the safety of You, Your employees, and Your visitors, You must register with NEC the physical location where each user will utilize our service with each phone line. We will register the physical location or Service Address that You provide as part of subscribing to our service. Please note that it is Your responsibility to confirm the accuracy of Your Service Address upon initial registration, and upon any further changes, additions, or transfers of phone numbers.You can do this by using Your online account portal. In addition, it is Your obligation to require each user to provide NEC with their specific location within Your premises in the event of an emergency. It is Your responsibility to inform each user that when the user moves the device to another location, the user must inform You, and in turn, it is Your obligation to update Your registered address. It is Your responsibility to update NEC promptly when You or any user changes the physical location to which service is provided. If You (or Your users) do not update location information, Your 911 calls may be directed to an emergency center near Your old address (instead of the new location), which may result in 911 responders being delayed in responding, or unable to respond, to the reported emergency. You may register only one 911 location at a time for each phone line. To be clear, You must re-register the Service Address with NEC each time the Service Address changes. Please note that this is standard and customary practice for any Internet-based voice service, and it is designed to keep You, Your employees, and Your visitors safe in case of an emergency. NEC UNIVERGE BLUE® Master Service Agreement, RSA, End User (200501) With NEC UNIVERGE BLUE CONNECT, You have the ability to connect Your voice service to multiple devices and endpoints. Please note the following important service limitations with regard to the use of such devices or endpoints: Note that You must register the correct service address for each separate device within the NEC portal (e.g., home phone, office phone, etc.). Emergency 911 calls are supported from the NEC UNIVERGE BLUE CONNECT mobile application as follows: o Emergency 911 calls placed through the NEC UNIVERGE BLUE CONNECT mobile application will be processed (e.g., routed to a local Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP)) as if the call was being placed from the Service Address that is registered in NEC s system for the applicable NEC UNIVERGE BLUE CONNECT phone number. Therefore, if the caller is not physically located at that registered Service Address, the then-current location, and the caller will need to verbally provide his/her location to the emergency responder. As a result, there is a risk of delay in the processing of emergency 911 calls placed through the mobile application (due to calls being incorrectly routed and additional handling and transfer time), as well as a risk that the emergency service providers may not be able to identify the de the emergency services needed by the caller) if the caller is unable to verbally communicate his/her location; and any of these events may result in the caller not receiving the emergency services they require in a timely manner, or at all. NEC recomm native dialer, instead of through the NEC UNIVERGE BLUE® CONNECT mobile application, as the mobile carrier infrastructure is better able to obtain and provide accurate location information to enable the call to be routed to the most appropriate PSAP. 911 service over Internet-based voice service has several limitations. Such limitations, including those discussed above, may prevent You from making emergency calls and include but are not limited to any of the following: Loss of electrical power Loss of Internet connection for any reason Termination of Your account by your broadband ISP or by NEC Defective or misconfigured customer premises equipment or software Network congestion Delays from updating Your registered Service Address Non-voice equipment, such as security systems and medical monitoring equipment Relocating the equipment outside of the United States, Canada or Puerto Rico, which is prohibited by the Master Service Agreement and applicable product schedules Simultaneous use of one line with multiple pieces of equipment The failure of the emergency response center to answer Your calls Failures of third parties responsible for routing 911 calls You should advise all of Your employees, invitees, guests, visitors, and every other person who visits Your facility and/or who may make calls using the service of the limitations described above. In some cases, emergency calls may not be routed to the designated emergency center in Your area. Rather, an emergency call may be routed to an alternative emergency center that may not have access to any or all of Your registered Service Address information. Consequently, a user should be prepared to provide sufficient information with respect to their physical location to a public safety dispatcher. This method may delay the dispatch of emergency personnel to the us location. If the emergency call is disconnected for any reason prior to the time the user has provided a location and callback should immediately redial 911. It is important that You place the stickers shipped with the phones purchased from NEC, or the label (supplied with this letter) for phones You supplied yourself, next to all devices which use NEC service, including all sess telephone adapter having the capability of connecting to our service, as well as all computers having softphone software installed. The sticker or label should be conspicuously located near or on each device so that a caller can NEC UNIVERGE BLUE® Master Service Agreement, RSA, End User (200501) easily see it. Failure to situate a sticker or label near or on each device may result in a caller not knowing that he/she may not be able to reach 911 in the event of an emergency. You acknowledge and agree that if You are not comfortable with the limitations of 911 service, that You should always have an alternative means of accessing emergency service. To ensure that You and Your Users have access to emergency services, You acknowledge and accept that it is Your sole responsibility to purchase, from a third-party separately from NEC, traditional wireless or landline telephone service as a backup means of completing emergency calls. If the Service is used in a home office environment, it is not intended to be used for personal, residential, nonbusiness or nonprofessional commercial use. A home office user must provide alternative arrangements for residential emergency calls. To check Your 911 activation status, log in to Your account or dial support from Your NEC phone.
