Prior to a termination pursuant to this subsection 7.2(i), either party shall have the right to exhaust legal action seeking to overturn the court order or state or federal legislation that prohibits or makes the operation of the photo red light enforcement systems impracticable. However, the City shall have no obligation to pay ATS a fee for any period when it is unlawful or impracticable to operate the photo red light enforcement system, unless a Court places a stay of implementation on the legal action or new law. The term of the Agreement shall be suspended during any period in which the Customer is not obligated to pay ATS and such time period shall be added to the term of the Agreement once it becomes lawful and practical for the City to operate the photo red light enforcement systems, however no such additional time period shall exceed a period of twenty-four (24) months; (ii) any court having jurisdiction over City rules, or declares, that the City's red light enforcement program, or the program set forth in the State Law, is invalid or results from the Vendor System of photo red light enforcement are inadmissible in evidence due to a defect in the manner in which such results were obtained or processed (in which case, Vendor shall have the opportunity to cure such defect, as provided below), or otherwise renders a decision that makes it impracticable to operate the red light enforcement program; (ill) a determination by a court of competent jurisdiction or other applicable dispute resolution forum that Vendor has infringed upon a third party's patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or other intellectual property; (iv) the other party commits any material breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement; (v) Vendor's non-payment of revenues to City as required by this Agreement. In the event of a termination due to this Section, City shall be relieved of any further obligations to Vendor other than as specified herein. Either party shall have the right to remedy the cause for termination within forty-five (45) calendar days (or within such other time period as the City and Vendor shall mutually agree, which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) after written notice from the non -causing party setting forth in reasonable detail the events of the cause for termination. After the camera systems have been operational for twelve (12) months, and upon ninety (90) days written notice to the other party, either party may terminate this Agreement if the revenue from the camera systems did not cover the annual BSO costs as provided In the Addendum to this Agreement. The rights to terminate this Agreement given in Section 7.2 shall be without prejudice to any other right or remedy of either party in respect of the breach concerned (if any) or any other breach of this Agreement. 7.3 Procedures Upon Termination.

Vendor shall receive the compensation set forth on, and pursuant to, Exhibit E attached hereto. 8.2 Revenue Neutrality. During the term of the contract, payments by the Customer may be made to ATS under a Flexible Payment Plan. Under the Flexible Payment Plan the Customer may defer certain payments to ATS due and owing during a Contract Year as defined below. The total payment to be deferred shall include the amount paid to the Broward Sheriffs Office (BSO) for Red Light Camera enforcement services, which in no event shall exceed the initial quote for said services provided by the BSO to Customer. The initial quote must be provided and agreed to by ATS prior to the installation of any camera systems. Cost neutrality shall apply from the first Contract Year, which begins four (4) months after the City issues its initial notice to proceed on the mutually agreed to number of camera systems and ending every twelve (12) months thereafter. If at the end of a Contract Year sufficient funds have not been collected by the Customer to pay the accrued balance then due to ATS, ATS agrees to waive its right to recovery with respect to any balance owning to ATS at the end of that fiscal year. For purposes of this clause, the term "funds" shall not mean the gross amount of penalties to be assessed pursuant to Florida Statutes Section 316.0083(1)(b)3 and/or Florida Statutes Section 318.18(15)(a)3. for a violation of Florida Statutes Sections 316.074(1) or 316.075(1)(c) (such amount as of the Effective Date of this Agreement being $158.00), rather "funds" shall be only such portions of said gross revenues that are either (i) retained by the City after remittances contemplated in Florida Statutes Section 316.0083(1)(b), or (ii) sums distributed to the City pursuant to Florida Statutes Section 318.18(15)(a)3. P] 8.3 From the funds collected from violators under the program, the City shall be entitled to retain its documented costs for program administration pursuant to its contract with the Broward Sheriffs Office CBSO Administrative Costs). The BSO Administrative Costs shall be mutually agreed to and memorialized by Addendum to this Agreement prior to the installation of any camera systems. This subsection will be applied as follows: Vendor will maintain an accounting of any net balance owed to Vendor. If the amount of funds collected by City during a monthly billing period equals or exceeds the total amount of Vendor invoices and the monthly BSO Administrative Costs during the same period, City shall pay Vendor the total amount due on the invoices. If the amount of funds collected during a monthly billing period does not equal or exceed the total amount of Vendor invoices and monthly BSO Administrative Costs during the same period, City shall retain the amount of the monthly BSO Administrative Costs and pay Vendor the remaining amount of funds, if any, collected and defer payment of the remaining balance. Should the amount of funds collected during a monthly billing period be less than the BSO monthly Administrative Costs, funds in future monthly billing periods shall be applied first to outstanding balances on the BSO monthly Administrative Costs until such is current. Thereafter, payments due to Vendor shall be reconciled by applying future funds collected, first to the accrued balance owing pursuant to this subsection, and then to the invoice for the current monthly billing period. Accrued balances shall not include any interest charges. At any time that Vendor invoices, including any accrued balance, are fully repaid, City will retain all additional funds collected during that monthly billing period. If, at the end of any Contract Year as defined in Section 8.2, sufficient funds have not been collected by City to pay any balance due to Vendor pursuant to this subsection, Vendor agrees to waive its right to recovery of any outstanding balance. 8.4 Vendor shall be responsible for processing payments of the Civil Fees. The Vendor shall provide payment means through mail, telephone and on-line processes on a weekly basis. Vendor shall track all payments and handle all applied payments, unapplied payments, overpayments, refunds, adjustments, dismissals and reversals. 8.5 Vendor shall pay City all payments received during a calendar week, no later than the second business day of the next following week. 8.6 ATS shall invoice the City for all applicable fees for a month in arrears on the first day of the following month, in the amounts determined by the fee schedule delineated on Exhibit E. Along with the invoice, Vendor shall provide information to the City, in a format acceptable to the City, supporting the invoice amounts forwarded by Vendor to the City. In addition, City shall have access to the financial reporting functions of Vendor's system upon City's request for purposes of verifying invoice amounts. 8.7 During the first 90 calendar days, ATS shall carefully track the number of potential violations submitted to the City, verses the number of violations actually pursued by the City. During this trial period, ATS shall make every attempt to insure that potential violations submitted to the City will be submitted in a format and manner that will result in the City's ability to approve the potential violation for processing as a violation. ATS shall carefully observe reasons for rejections by the City of potential violations during this period, and shall make efforts to minimize the number of potential violations rejected by the City. Upon completion of the 90 day trial period, ATS shall demonstrate no net increase beyond 2% in the total percentage of potential violations rejected by the City on a month to month basis. In the event that there is a percentage increase of greater than 2% of the total potential violations submitted to the City, Vendor shall, as soon as possible, schedule a meeting with City to make adjustments to the City's program to ensure rejection rates of potential violations do not increase greater than 2% of the total potential violations submitted to the City. 9.0 Survival.
