2.14 Availability Standards
2.14.1 Scheduled Downtime. MMI shall strive to avoid and minimize disruptions to the
availability and functioning of the eSOPH System. The eSOPH System may be unavailable for scheduled backup
and system maintenance ("Scheduled Downtime") during off-peak hours between the hours of 22:00 and 03:00
am PST (the "Maintenance Window"). On a limited and discretionary basis, MMI may adjust the Maintenance
Window to occur between the hours of 19:00 and 03:00 am Pacific Time by providing Client with at least 24
hours' notice posted on the log -in screen of the eSOPH System. MMI shall use its best commercially reasonable
efforts to schedule all planned downtime during such Maintenance Window. If emergency maintenance must be
performed on the eSOPH System which, in MMI's sole discretion, cannot wait until the normal Maintenance
Window, MMI will promptly notify Client of such lack of Availability (in advance, if possible) and undertake
reasonable commercial efforts to minimize the impact and duration of any such maintenance activity. Any such
downtime for maintenance occurring outside the Maintenance Window shall not be deemed Scheduled Downtime
for purposes of calculating the Availability percentage described in Section 2.14.3, below.
2.14.2 Uptime Guarantee; Remedies for Excessive Downtime. MMI shall provide Availability
of the eSOPH System at least 99% of the time, excluding Scheduled Downtime and lack of Availability caused
by the events described in Sections 2.13 and 2.14.3. In the event the Availability of the eSOPH System falls
below 99% in any calendar month, MMI will issue to Client a service credit ("Service Credit") in the form of
additional Entries equal to the percentage of Entries purchased by Client for the calendar month (Entries per
current License Term divided by the total months in the respective License Term) set forth in the table below
MASTER SOFTWARE LICENSE & SERVICES AGREEMENT PAGE 7 OF 18
Version: June 14, 2017
MILLER MENDEL, INC.
corresponding to the actual Availability of the Software. To receive Service Credits, Client must submit a written
request to MMI within 15 days after the end of the calendar month in which the eSOPH System failed to achieve
99% Availability, or Client's right to receive Service Credits with respect to such unavailability will be waived
by Client. The remedies stated in this Section are Client's sole and exclusive remedies and MMI' sole and
exclusive obligations for service interruption or lack of Availability.
2.14.3 Availability is measured by the following formula: x= (n - y) * 100 / n
where: "x" is the Availability percentage; "n" is the total number of hours in the given calendar
month minus Scheduled Downtime; and "y" is the total number of downtime hours exclusive of Scheduled
Downtime and downtime caused by the events set forth in Section 2.13 (Exclusions) in the given calendar month.

penalties and interest.

automatically by the terms of this Agreement.
4.2 Renewal. This Agreement shall automatically be renewed without gap upon timely payment by
Client of fees as Quoted pursuant to Section 3 (Fees and Payment). MMI reserves the right to decline to accept
Client's renewal payment and thereby allow the License Term to expire without having to invoke the "for cause"
Termination provisions of Section 4.3 (Termination), below. If MMI intends to not allow Client to renew, MMI
will give Client at least 30 -days written notice prior to the last day of the Client's then current License Term.

without cause, MMI will issue Client a refund for up to 25% of the remaining Entries, minus any outstanding
charges owed by Client. MMI does not issue refunds in greater amounts, or for other circumstances, due to the
upfront expenses MMI sustains from continuous maintenance of the eSOPH System.

4.3.5 Without limiting the Parties respective rights in Sections 4.3.3 and 4.3.4 above, either
Party may terminate this Agreement with cause in the event that the other Party breaches this Agreement and the
breaching Party does not cure such breach within thirty (30) days after receiving written notice of the breach and
intent to terminate from the non -breaching Party. If either Party gives notice to the other for substantially the

Agreement immediately with cause upon receipt of the third notice by the breaching Party.
4.3.6 A Party's termination of this Agreement under this Section 4.3 does not limit either Party
from seeking other appropriate legal remedy for any breach.

shall be obligated to pay in full upon Termination all invoices which were not disputed prior to the Termination.
Client may continue to access the information for previously entered Applicants in the eSOPH System for a period
of thirty (30) calendar days. MMI reserves the right to charge for data storage fees for storage of Client's Data
after termination, provided Client requests MMI retain the data on the eSOPH System. The amount billed for data
storage shall be consistent with the amount(s) listed in the Quote for the License Term. If Client does not pay the
data storage fee(s) within thirty (30) days after each due date set by MMI, MMI may, at MMI's sole discretion,
permanently delete Client's Data, revoke Client's access to the eSOPH System, or both.
4.5 Survival. Where the context, nature, or express terms of any provision indicates intent that it

License Rights), 3 (Fees and Payment), 4.3 (Termination), 5 (Data Access, Confidentiality and Security), 6
(Representations and Warranties), 7 (Limitation of Liability), 9 (Corrective Actions), 10 (Insurance), 11 (Notices)
and 12 (General Terms and Conditions).
5. DATA ACCESS, CONFIDENTIALITY AND SECURITY
5.1 Authorized User Access Only. Client is responsible for all use of its Authorized Users accounts
on the eSOPH System. Client shall ensure that its Authorized User(s) properly control and limit access to the
eSOPH System to Client's appropriate Authorized Users, and that Client's Authorized Users properly protect their
logins, passwords and all other login credentials to prevent unauthorized access and misuse of Client Data,
Applicant Data and any other information that may be accessed through the eSOPH System. Client is responsible
for its own policy regarding Authorized Users changing their passwords, minimum password complexity
requirements beyond what is required by the eSOPH System, and which computer terminals may be used to access
the eSOPH System by its Authorized Users, including any unattended devices or computers logged into the
eSOPH System. Client shall ensure any previous Authorized User who no longer has a valid purpose to access
the eSOPH System will have their eSOPH System login credentials disabled within the eSOPH System, without
delay. Former Authorized Users who separate from their relationship with Client shall have their login credentials
immediately disabled, without delay, by Client. Client will ensure that each Authorized User has unique login
credentials; an Authorized User may not share or disclose its login credentials to any other person, even if such
other person is also an Authorized User.
5.2 Two -Factor Authentication. Client acknowledges the eSOPH System offers optional two -factor
authentication using Google Authenticator. This service is automatically available to those Clients who desire a
two -factor frontend login process.
5.3 Client's Sharing of Applicant Data. The eSOPH System allows Client to externally share
Applicant data and other information about Applicants from the eSOPH System. If Client or its Authorized
User(s) share Applicant Data or other information about an Applicant with a third party, Client must: (i) possess
MASTER SOFTWARE LICENSE & SERVICES AGREEMENT PAGE 11 OF 18
Version: June 14, 2017
MILLER MENDEL, INC.
valid, signed authorization from each Applicant whose Applicant Data or information is to be shared, legally
adequate to authorize Client to share such Applicant Data or information, (ii) refrain from violating any law,
policy, term or rule by sharing, transmitting or otherwise disclosing such Applicant Data or information, and (iii)
keep the Applicant Data and information secure and private in accordance with any and all applicable privacy
laws, and other legal requirement(s) and obligation(s).
5.4 MMI's Sharing of Basic Applicant Data. Client acknowledges and understands a valuable part
of the eSOPH System is the ability for Client to see if an Applicant has been entered into the eSOPH System by
other MMI client(s). If Client enters an Applicant into the eSOPH System, the eSOPH System will disclose if any
other MMI client has previously entered the same Applicant into the eSOPH System. "Basic Applicant Data"
information produced to other MMI clients is limited to: Agency/entity name, position applied for, entered date,
and closed date. The eSOPH System will also display the point of contact for any other agency(s) who have
previously entered the Applicant into the eSOPH System. If Client purges their backgrounds from the eSOPH
System, the Basic Applicant Data (as defined in this Section) will remain on the eSOPH System and be visible to
other MMI clients. Further information regarding another agency's entry of an Applicant, must be gained through
that agency's permission and their own internal process(es).
5.5 Security Incident. In the event MMI learns of a Security Incident, MMI will make every effort
to notify Client within 24 -hours of learning of the breach. Notification will be made to the Client's Primary
Administrative User or representative identified pursuant to Section 2.6 (Primary Authorized User), via telephone,
and also email. Notifications will only be made when an actual Security Incident has occurred; if the data is
encrypted, by industry standards, no Security Incident is considered to have occurred and no notification will be
made. At the request of Client, and with Client's cooperation and assistance, MMI will work together with law
enforcement and other personnel in connection with the unauthorized access into the eSOPH System. MMI takes
the privacy and security of data seriously, and uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards
to protect the confidentiality and security of all Client Data. Clients are encouraged to review MMI's eSOPH
Security Overview, which is updated as needed by MMI from time to time and is available upon request.
5.6 Ownership of Client Data. Client owns all Client Data entered into the eSOPH System by its
Authorized Users and its Applicants, including Applicant Data entered in response to the Client's request for
information to process an Applicant's background investigation.
5.7 Post -Termination Retention of Data. Without limiting Client's rights to Client Data and
Applicant Data hereunder, MMI may retain and store the following data during and after the term of this
Agreement: Applicant name, Applicant telephone number, Applicant mailing address, Applicant email address,
Applicant year of birth, date the Applicant was entered into the eSOPH System, Applicant's background
investigation close date, position Applicant has applied for with Client, and the legal agreements (e.g., MMI's
Electronic Signature Agreement, Terms of Use and Privacy Policy) related to any Authorized User's or
Applicant's use of the eSOPH System. MMI may retain such information and use it to comply with applicable
law and the eSOPH System Terms of Use and Privacy Policy and for the purposes described in Section 5.4 (MMI's
Sharing of Basic Applicant Data). Other than as stated in this Agreement, MMI will not use such information for
other purpose.
5.8 Confidential Information. In performance of this Agreement, the Parties may directly or
indirectly disclose to each other confidential information, proprietary information, or confidential data

would understand such information to be confidential, including, but not limited to, (a) trade secrets or

Information shall not include information the receiving Party can prove by clear and convincing written
contemporaneous evidence is: (1) publicly known through no fault or negligence of the receiving Party; (2)
rightfully possessed by the receiving Party prior to disclosure by the disclosing Party; (3) rightfully obtained by

Party's Confidential Information.
5.10 Restrictions on Use and Disclosure. Each party shall not use the other party's Confidential
Information for any purpose other than performance of its obligations and exercise of its rights under this

subpoena, or similar legal requirement; or necessary to disclose to prevent severe physical injury to or loss of life
of an individual; provided, however that the receiving Party shall notify the disclosing Party prior to such required
disclosure promptly and sufficiently in advance to permit the receiving Party to contest or limit such required
disclosure, including without limitation redaction of trade secret information prior disclosure.
5.12 Public Records Request. MMI acknowledges that Client, as a public entity, is at all times subject
to state public records acts, as now existing or as amended. If Client receives a public records request for all or
any portion of this Agreement, including any documents or materials provided to Client under this Agreement,
generally such information will be a public record and must be disclosed to the public records requester.
5.13 Storage and Encryption. During the Term of this Agreement, MMI will store and maintain
Client Data and Applicant Data for use and access by Client and its Authorized Users under the terms of this
Agreement. MMI will ensure industry standard data encryption methods are in place for storage of Client Data
and Applicant Data. The encryption shall meet or exceed HIPAA, and CJIS standards, as well as any other
standards stated in MMI's eSOPH Security Overview documentation.
5.14 Backups. MMI shall record snapshot copies of Client Data hourly during the Term and shall
record full backup copies of Client Data once per week. Backup copies are stored on both MMI's production
server, to enable a quick restore if necessary, and remotely within Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US). Backup
records that are older than one calendar week are automatically purged from MMI's production server. At least
three months of backup copies are stored remotely and are automatically purged after three, months. MMI uses
proprietary software to monitor the automated tasks of Microsoft SQL.
5.15 Payment Card Data. If Client will request or have access to credit card information, Client
represents that it is presently in compliance with, and will remain in compliance with, an approved version of the
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, developed and published jointly by American Express, Discover
Financial Services, JCB, MasterCard Worldwide and Visa International ("Card Issuers") or the PCI Security
Standards Council (the "Council"), as applicable, for protecting individual numbers used to identify credit and
debit card accounts and other personally identifiable information relating to the use of such credit and debit card
accounts ("Cardholder Information"), as the same may be amended, updated, replaced or augmented by the
Card Issuers and the Council (the "PCI Standard"). Client acknowledges that it may, in connection with
performing its duties in accordance with this Agreement, have access to, or be provided, Cardholder Information.

maintain, use and store Cardholder Information. Client further acknowledges and agrees that, as between Client
and MMI, all Cardholder Information is, and will remain, controlled by and the responsibility of Client. Client
further acknowledges and agrees that Client is solely responsible for the security of Cardholder Information that
it possesses or controls.
