This Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement (“Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement”) is made
and entered into by and between Enterprise Services acting by and through the State of Washington
(“Enterprise Services”) and Motorola Solutions, Inc., an Delaware corporation (“Contractor”) and is
dated and effective as of January 1, 2022.
R E C I T A L S
A. Pursuant to Legislative authorization, Enterprise Services, on behalf of the State of
Washington, is authorized to develop, solicit, and establish Cooperative Purchasing
Master Agreements for goods and services to support Washington state agencies. See
RCW 39.26.050(1). The Washington State Legislature has authorized Enterprise Services
to make these Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreements available, pursuant to
agreement in which Enterprise Services ensures full cost recovery, to other local or
federal government agency or entity, public benefit nonprofit organizations, or any
tribes located in the State of Washington. See RCW 39.26.050(1) & (2).
B. The Washington State Legislature also has authorized Enterprise Services to participate
in, sponsor, conduct, or administer certain cooperative purchasing agreements for the
procurement of goods or services. See RCW 39.26.060(1). One of the approaches that
Enterprise Services utilizes to participate in cooperative purchasing agreements with
other states is NASPO ValuePoint.
C. NASPO Cooperative Purchasing Organization LLC, doing business as NASPO ValuePoint,
is a nonprofit subsidiary of the National Association of State Procurement Officials
(NASPO). The NASPO ValuePoint purchasing cooperative program is led by state
procurement officers from member states. NASPO ValuePoint does not award
contracts; rather, it assists states, for an administrative fee, in their collaboration
pertaining to solicitations and the resulting master agreements.
COOPERATIVE PURCHASING MASTER AGREEMENT NO. 00318 PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS PRODUCTS, SERVICES & SOLUTIONS 2
(Rev. 2020-03-11)
D. Pursuant to the NASPO ValuePoint cooperative purchasing model, a state serves as the
‘lead state’ to conduct a competitive procurement in compliance with that state’s
procurement laws and award a cooperative purchasing master agreement with a
contractor for the specified goods or services. States (including the District of Columbia
and the organized territories of the United States), including the lead state, then may
participate in that cooperative purchasing master agreement by executing a
Participating Addendum. Until a Participating Addendum is executed by the applicable
state (a ‘participating entity’), no agency or other eligible organization (a ‘purchasing
entity’) may purchase pursuant to the cooperative purchasing master agreement.
Under Washington law, at the time of solicitation, states may provide supplemental
substantive terms and conditions to inform the competitive procurement. In addition,
pursuant to their Participating Addendum, states may require certain administrative
terms and conditions (e.g., a vendor management fee for sales within the state, state
registration and reporting). Contractor, however, has no obligation to condition
execution of a Participating Addendum on substantive terms and conditions that were
not competitively procured.
E. Enterprise Services, as part of a cooperative purchasing competitive governmental
procurement, with administrative support from NASPO ValuePoint, issued Competitive
Solicitation No. 00318 dated November 16, 2020 regarding Public Safety
Communications Products, Services and Solutions (“Public Safety Radio”). Sixteen (16)
states indicated an intent to utilize the resulting Cooperative Purchasing Master
Agreement.
F. Enterprise Services and a stakeholder team consisting of representatives from
Washington, California, Alaska, Oregon, Montana, Tennessee, Colorado and Nevada
evaluated all responsive bids to the Competitive Solicitation and identified Contractor as
an Apparent Successful Bidder for the Category identified above.
G. Enterprise Services determined that entering into this Cooperative Purchasing Master
Agreement will meet the cooperative purchasing needs and be in the best interest of
the State of Washington.
H. The purpose of this Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement is to enable Participating
or Purchasing Entities to purchase Public Safety Radio products and services, in the
awarded Category as set forth herein.
A G R E E M E N T
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, covenants, and conditions set forth herein, the
parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. TERM. The term of this Master Agreement begins January 1, 2022 and ends on December 31, 2026;
provided, however that, the contract term shall be extended for twenty-four (24) months if, in
Enterprise Services’ sole, reasonable judgement, which shall occur no later than June 30, 2025,
Contractor meets the following performance metrics:
COOPERATIVE PURCHASING MASTER AGREEMENT NO. 00318 PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS PRODUCTS, SERVICES & SOLUTIONS 3
(Rev. 2020-03-11)
Reports: Contractor provides timely and accurate reports as detailed in this Master
Agreement and Participating Addendums; and
Administrative Fee Payments: Contractor provides timely and accurate Administrative
Fee payments as detailed in this Master Agreement and Participating Addendums.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, to effectuate a smooth transition for Participating
States and Purchasing Entities for Public Safety Communications Products, Services and Solutions to
begin on January 1, 2022, Contractor shall provide implementation and transition support to
Participating States who wish to utilize the Master Agreement, beginning upon the date such
Participating State and Contractor executes a Participating Addendum. For the avoidance of doubt,
no orders for products or services shall be made under this Agreement prior to January 1, 2022.
2. PARTICIPANTS AND SCOPE. This Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement may be utilized under the
following conditions:
2.1. PARTICIPATING ENTITIES. Contractor may not sell Public Safety Radio products and services
under this Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement until a Participating Addendum
acceptable to the Participating Entity and Contractor is executed. The terms and conditions
set forth in the Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement are applicable to any Order by a
Participating Entity (and other Purchasing Entities covered by their Participating
Addendum), except to the extent altered, modified, supplemented, or amended by a
Participating Addendum; Provided, however, that no Participating Addendum shall operate
to alter or modify any substantive terms of this Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement
which were solicited and procured pursuant to a competitive procurement. By way of
illustration and not limitation, Participating Entities may include unique administrative,
delivery, and invoicing requirements, as well as entity-specific confidentiality requirements
and similar entity-specific administrative requirements in purchase Orders utilizing this
Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement.
2.2. PURCHASING ENTITIES. Purchasing Entity means a state (as well as the District of Columbia and
U.S territories), city, county, district, other political subdivision of a State, and a nonprofit
organization under the laws of some states if authorized by a Participating Addendum, that
issues a Purchase Order or other commitment document against the Cooperative
Purchasing Master Agreement and becomes financially committed to the purchase.
2.3. PARTICIPATING ADDENDUM. Obligations under this Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement
are limited to those Participating Entities who have signed a Participating Addendum and
Purchasing Entities within the scope of those Participating Addenda. States or other entities
permitted to participate may use an informal competitive or other process to determine
which Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreements to participate in through execution of a
Participating Addendum. Financial obligations of Participating Entities who are states are
limited to the orders placed by the departments or other state agencies and institutions
having available funds. Participating Entities who are states incur no financial obligations on
behalf of other Purchasing Entities. Contractor shall email a fully executed PDF copy of each
Participating Addendum as instructed by the Lead State to support documentation of
participation and posting in appropriate databases.
2.4. PURCHASING ENTITY RIGHTS. Except to the extent modified by a Participating Addendum, each
Purchasing Entity shall follow the terms and conditions of the Cooperative Purchasing
Master Agreement and applicable Participating Addendum and will have the same rights
COOPERATIVE PURCHASING MASTER AGREEMENT NO. 00318 PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS PRODUCTS, SERVICES & SOLUTIONS 4

and responsibilities for their purchases as the Lead State has in the Cooperative Purchasing
Master Agreement, including but not limited to, any indemnity or right to recover any costs
as such right is defined in the Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement and applicable
Participating Addendum for their purchases. Each Purchasing Entity will be responsible for
its own charges, fees, and liabilities. Contractor will apply the charges and invoice each
Participating Entity individually.
2.5. PARTICIPATING ADDENDUM APPROVAL. Participating Entities who are not states may under some
circumstances sign their own Participating Addendum, subject to the approval of
participation by the Chief Procurement Official of the state where the Participating Entity is
located. Coordinate requests for such participation through NASPO ValuePoint. Any
permission to participate through execution of a Participating Addendum is not a

ensure that they have the requisite procurement authority to execute a Participating
Addendum.

this Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement are subject to Purchasing Entity’s
reasonable inspection, testing, and approval at Purchasing Entity’s destination. Such
inspection and approval shall be determined within thirty (30) days of delivery. Purchasing
Entity reserves the right to reject and refuse acceptance of goods and/or services that are
not in accordance with this Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement and Purchasing
Entity’s Purchase Order. Purchasing Entity may charge Contractor for the cost of inspecting
rejected goods. If there are any apparent defects in the goods and/or services at the time of

Entity’s option, and without limiting any other rights, Purchasing Entity may require
Contractor to, consistent with the warranty terms, repair or replace, at Contractor’s
expense, any or all of the damaged goods and/or services or, at Purchasing Entity’s option,
Purchasing Entity may note any damage to the goods and/or services on the receiving
report, decline acceptance, and deduct the cost of rejected goods and/or services from final
payment. Payment for any goods under such Purchase Order shall not be deemed
acceptance of the goods.
(a) All Products are subject to inspection at reasonable times and places before
Acceptance. Contractor shall provide right of access to the Lead State, or to any
other authorized agent or official of the Lead State or other Participating or
Purchasing Entity, at reasonable times, in order to monitor and evaluate

COOPERATIVE PURCHASING MASTER AGREEMENT NO. 00318 PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS PRODUCTS, SERVICES & SOLUTIONS 12
(Rev. 2020-03-11)
specifications may be rejected. Failure to reject upon receipt, however, does not
relieve Contractor of liability for material (nonconformity that substantially
impairs value) latent or hidden defects subsequently revealed when the Public
Safety Radio Products are put to use. Acceptance of such Public Safety Radio
Products may be revoked in accordance with the provisions of the applicable
commercial code, and Contractor shall be liable for any resulting expense
incurred by the Purchasing Entity related to the preparation and shipping of any
Public Safety Radio Products rejected and returned, or for which Acceptance is

and/or Purchasing Entity, be used only for the performance of this Cooperative Purchasing
Master Agreement. Contractor shall be responsible for damages as a result of any loss or
damage to property of any Participating State and/or Purchasing Entity to the extent it
results from the negligence of Contractor or to the extent it results from the failure on the
part of Contractor to maintain, administer and protect that property in a reasonable manner
and to the extent practicable in all instances. If any such Participating State and/or
Purchasing Entity property is lost, destroyed, or damaged, Contractor immediately shall
notify such Participating State and/or Purchasing Entity and shall take all reasonable steps to
protect the property from further damage. Contractor shall surrender to such Participating
State and/or Purchasing Entity all property of such Participating State and/or Purchasing
Entity prior to settlement upon completion, termination, or cancellation of this Cooperative
Purchasing Master Agreement. Title to all property furnished by Contractor, the cost for

which is reimbursable to Contractor under this Contract, shall pass to and vest in the

statutes and regulations (e.g., RCW Title 51, Industrial Insurance). If Contractor fails to
provide industrial insurance coverage or fails to pay premiums or penalties on behalf of its
employees as may be required by law, Enterprise Services may terminate this Cooperative
Purchasing Master Agreement. This provision does not waive any of the Washington State
Department of Labor and Industries (L&I) rights to collect from Contractor. In addition,
Contractor waives its immunity under RCW Title 51 to the extent it is required to indemnify,
defend, and hold harmless the State of Washington and its agencies, officials, agents, or
employees.
12.3. INSURANCE CERTIFICATE. Prior to commencement of performance, Contractor shall provide to

includes the State of Washington and Enterprise Services as additional insureds, (2) provides
for written notice of cancellation delivered in accordance with the policy provisions, and (3)

insurance of any Participating State as secondary and noncontributory. Unless otherwise
agreed in any Participating Addendum, other state Participating Entities’ rights and
Contractor’s obligations are the same as those specified in the first sentence of this
subsection except the endorsement is provided to the applicable state.
13. PUBLIC INFORMATION. This Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement, all related documents, and all
records created as a result of the Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement are subject to public
disclosure as required by Washington’s Public Records Act, RCW chapter 42.56. In addition,
Participating Addendums and related records shall be subject to public disclosure as required by
applicable law pertaining to such Purchasing Entity. Consistent with the Public Records Act, to the
extent that any such Contractor document or record – in whole or in part – includes information
exempted or protected from disclosure by the Public Records Act, Contractor may mark such
document or record – the exempted or protected portions only – with the specific basis for
protection under the Public Records Act. In the event that Enterprise Services receives a public
records disclosure request that pertains to such properly marked documents or records, Enterprise
Services shall notify Contractor of such disclosure request and of the date that the records will be
released to the requester unless Contractor, at Contractor’s sole expense, timely obtains a court
order enjoining such disclosure. In the event Contractor fails to file a motion for a court order
enjoining such disclosure, Enterprise Services shall release the requested documents on the date
specified. Contractor’s failure properly to identify exempted or protected information or timely
COOPERATIVE PURCHASING MASTER AGREEMENT NO. 00318 PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS PRODUCTS, SERVICES & SOLUTIONS 19
(Rev. 2020-03-11)
respond after notice of request for public disclosure has been given shall be deemed a waiver by
Contractor of any claim that such materials are protected or exempt from disclosure.

COOPERATIVE PURCHASING MASTER AGREEMENT NO. 00318 PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS PRODUCTS, SERVICES & SOLUTIONS 20
(Rev. 2020-03-11)
construed to limit the rights and remedies available to either Party under the
applicable commercial code.
14.4. LIMITATION ON DAMAGES. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the parties agree
that in no event shall any party or Purchasing Entity be liable to the other for exemplary or
punitive damages. Contractor's total liability, whether for breach of contract, strict liability
in tort, or otherwise, will be limited to the direct damages recoverable under law, but not to
exceed the $2,000,000 per claim or $30,000,000 aggregate liability; provided, however, that
nothing contained in this Section will in any way exclude or limit Contractor’s liability for all
damages arising out of gross negligence, personal injury or death.
ALTHOUGH THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES,
THEY AGREE THAT CONTRACTOR WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY COMMERCIAL LOSS,
INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OF USE, LOSS TIME, DATA, GOODWILL, REVENUES, PROFITS OR
SAVINGS; OR OTHER SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES IN
ANY WAY RELATED TO OR ARISING FROM THIS AGREEMENT, THE SALE OR USE OF THE
EQUIPMENT OR SOFTWARE, OR THE PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES BY CONTRACTOR

action for contract breach or otherwise relating to the transactions contemplated by this
Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement may be brought later than the limitations period
specified by statute.
14.5. GOVERNMENTAL TERMINATION.
(a) Termination for Withdrawal of Authority. Enterprise Services may suspend or
terminate this Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement if, during the term
hereof, Enterprise Services’ procurement authority is withdrawn, reduced, or

additional costs as a result of the suspension including costs to demobilize and
remobilize the project.

convenience shall only be effective upon sixty (60) days prior written notice; and
Provided further, that such termination for convenience shall not relieve any
Participating Entity or Purchasing Entity from payment for goods and/or services

risks. Contractor shall pay for all damage to any Purchasing Entity’s property resulting
directly or indirectly from its acts or omissions under this Cooperative Purchasing Master
Agreement, to the extent attributable to negligence by Contractor or its agents.
15.2. THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS; INDEMNITY. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall
defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Enterprise Services, any Purchasing Entity, and NASPO
Cooperative Purchasing Organization LLC (doing business as NASPO ValuePoint) (NASPO)
and their respective employees and agents from and against all claims, demands,
judgments, assessments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, liabilities or losses including,
without limitation, sums paid in settlement of claims, attorneys’ fees, consultant fees, and
expert fees (collectively “claims”) to the extent arising from any negligent act or omission of
Contractor or its successors, agents, and subcontractors under this Cooperative Purchasing
Master Agreement, except to the extent such claims are caused by Enterprise Services, any
Purchasing Entity, or NASPO’s’ negligence. Contractor shall take all steps needed to keep
Purchasing Entity’s property free of liens arising from Contractor’s activities, and promptly
obtain or bond the release of any such liens that may be filed. Unless otherwise agreed in
writing, this section is not subject to any limitations of liability in this Cooperative
Purchasing Master Agreement or in any other document executed in conjunction with this
Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement.
15.3. INDEMNIFICATION – Intellectual Property. The Contractor will defend at its expense any suit
brought against NASPO, NASPO ValuePoint, Participating State or Purchasing Entity,
(“Customer”) to the extent it is based on a third party claim alleging Contractor
manufactured equipment or Contractor software (“Contractor Product”) directly infringes a
United States patent or copyright (“Intellectual Property Claim”) if Contractor receives
reasonably prompt written notice of such claim or suit. If the Contractor promptly and
reasonably investigates and defends any Intellectual Property Claim, it shall have control
over the defense and settlement of it. However, the Indemnified Party must consent in
writing for any money damages or obligations for which it may be responsible. The
Indemnified Party shall furnish, at the Contractor’s reasonable request and expense,
information and assistance necessary for such defense.
If an Intellectual Property Claim occurs, or in Contractor’s opinion is likely to occur,
Contractor may at its option and expense: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue
using the Contractor Product; (b) replace or modify the Contractor Product so that it
becomes non-infringing while providing functionally equivalent performance; or (c) accept
the return of the Contractor Product and grant Customer a credit for the Contractor
Product, less a reasonable charge for depreciation. The depreciation amount will be
calculated based upon generally accepted accounting standards.

(Rev. 2020-03-11)
(1) The Contractor’s obligations under this section shall not extend to any combination of
the Product with any other product, system or method, unless the Product, system or
method is:
(a) provided by the Contractor or the Contractor’s subsidiaries or affiliates;
(b) modified by a third party other than Contractor
(c) specified by the Contractor to work with the Product; or
(d) reasonably required, in order to use the Product in its intended manner, and the

available product, system or method capable of performing the same function; or
(e) it would be reasonably expected to use the Product in combination with such
product, system or method.
This Section 15 provides Customer’s sole and exclusive remedies and Contractor’s entire
liability in the event of an Infringement Claim. Customer has no right to recover and
Contractor has no obligation to provide any other or further remedies, whether under
another provision of this Agreement or any other legal theory or principle, in connection
with an Infringement Claim. In addition, the rights and remedies provided in this Section 15

party, each party, within five (5) business days shall reduce its description of the dispute to writing
and deliver it to the other party. The receiving party then shall have three (3) business days to
review and respond in writing. In the event that the parties cannot then agree on a resolution of the

organization to attempt to resolve the dispute. In the event the parties cannot agree, either party

DocuSign Envelope ID: FE4B8A0B-8A65-43B8-A067-38CA0666DDF8
CMS # 173765
Contract Number: Page 12 of 30 Version 062020

provide that State payments made within 45 days are not considered delinquent, and
unless otherwise agreed, State Purchasing Entities will pay interest on any unpaid
balance beginning on the 45th day at the rate of 1% per month until paid in full;
provided, however, that interest shall not accrue on unpaid amounts that are the subject
of a good faith dispute regarding the obligation to pay all or a portion of the liability.

subsection shall be due until after the Purchasing Entity has concluded its review, and
the Purchasing Entity shall not pay any interest on any amount during the period it is
subject to dispute under this subsection.
iii. Available Funds-Contingency-Termination of Order
Purchasing Entities, except for authorized non-profit entities, are prohibited by law
from making commitments beyond the term of the current Purchasing Entity’s Fiscal
Year. Payment to Contractor beyond the current Purchasing Entity’s Fiscal Year is
contingent on the appropriation and continuing availability of Contract Funds in any
subsequent year (See Colorado Special Provision). If federal funds, non-State funds or
funds from any other source constitute all or some of the Contract Funds, the Purchasing
Entity’s obligation to pay Contractor shall be contingent upon such funding continuing
to be made available for payment. Orders under this Participating Addendum shall be
made only from Contract Funds, and the Purchasing Entity’s liability for such payments
shall be limited to the amount remaining of such Contract Funds. If State, federal or
other Purchasing Entity funds are not appropriated, or otherwise become unavailable to
fund an Order under this Participating Addendum, the Purchasing Entity may, upon

liability. The Purchasing Entity shall, however, remain obligated to pay for Services
and Goods that are delivered and accepted prior to the effective date of notice of
termination of Order. A State Purchasing Entity Order termination shall otherwise be
treated as if the Order was terminated in the public interest as described in §3. E. of this
Exhibit A.

are available. The Purchasing Entity shall endeavor to give notice of such termination
not less than 30 days prior to the day of non-availability of funds, and shall notify
Contractor of any anticipated termination.
iv. Discount and Delinquency Period
Any applicable cash discount period or delinquency period for the amounts shown on

State’s security policy and procedures for safeguarding FTI. Contractors must maintain their
authorization to access FTI through annual recertification. The initial certification and
recertification must be documented and placed in the State’s files for review. As part of the
certification and at least annually afterwards, Contractors must be advised of the provisions of IRCs
7431, 7213, and 7213A (see Exhibit 4, Sanctions for Unauthorized Disclosure, and Exhibit 5, Civil
Damages for Unauthorized Disclosure). The training provided before the initial certification and

certification, the Contractor must sign, either with ink or electronic signature, a confidentiality
statement certifying their understanding of the security requirements.

corrective actions may be required in cases where the Contractor is found to be noncompliant with Contract
safeguards.

Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure
ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, Pitkin County (we, us or Pitkin County) may be required by law to provide
you with certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for
providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically when we send you documents for
electronic signature.
Acknowledging your Access, Intent, and Consent to Receive and Sign Materials
Electronically
To confirm that you can access this information electronically, which will be similar to other
electronic notices and disclosures that we will provide to you, please verify that you were able to
read this electronic disclosure and that you also were able to print on paper or electronically save
this page for your future reference and access or that you were able to e-mail this disclosure and
consent to an address where you will be able to print on paper or save it for your future reference
and access. Further, if you consent to receive notices and disclosures exclusively in electronic
format on the terms and conditions described above, please let us know by clicking the 'I agree'
button below.
By checking the 'I Agree' box, I confirm that:
I am establishing my intent to be bound to the transaction, and indicating that I am fully
aware of the purpose for which the signature is being provided.
I can access and read this Electronic CONSENT TO ELECTRONIC RECEIPT OF
ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURES document; and
I can print on paper the disclosure or save or send the disclosure to a place where I can
print it, for future reference and access; and
Until or unless I notify Pitkin County as described above, I consent to receive from
exclusively through electronic means all notices, disclosures, authorizations,
acknowledgments, and other documents that are required to be provided or made
available to me by Pitkin County during the course of my relationship with you.
Signing Documents without a Pitkin County DocuSign Account:
Pitkin County may not require all document signers to be authorized users of the Pitkin County
DocuSign Account. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can
access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to these terms and
conditions, please confirm your agreement by clicking the 'I agree' button at the bottom of this
document. When you don't have a DocuSign account, you will be provided the opportunity to
agree to the Legal Disclosure each time you open an "envelope" for signing, at this time, you can
download and retain this disclosure. Pitkin County will forward completed documents that
you've reviewed, processed or signed via email. Should you require copies of these signed
documents (e.g., if they get deleted from your email account) you should request those
documents from Pitkin County under the Colorado Open Records Act by contacting the Pitkin
County custodian who sent you the document for signature.
Signing Documents with a Pitkin County DocuSign Account:
Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure created on: 3/20/2020 3:28:13 PM
Parties agreed to: Alex Burchetta, Drew Petersen
Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can access this
information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to these terms and conditions, please
confirm your agreement by clicking the 'I agree' button at the bottom of this document.
Getting paper or electronic copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper or electronic copy of any record provided or made
available electronically to you by us. For such copies, as long as you are an authorized user of
the DocuSign system you will have the ability to download and print any documents we send to
you through your DocuSign user account for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such
documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper or
electronic copies of any such documents from our office to you, you may be charged a per-page
fee. You may request delivery of such paper or electronic copies from us by following the
procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you are an authorized DocuSign Account holder, you can decide to receive notices and
disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time change your mind and tell us that
thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format. Described
below is the process for informing us of your decision to receive future notices and disclosure in
paper format and also how to withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures
electronically.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format,
and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such
paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must
withdraw your consent using the DocuSign 'Withdraw Consent' form on the signing page of your
DocuSign account. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn your consent to receive
required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no longer be able to use your
DocuSign user account to receive required notices and consents electronically from us or to sign
electronically documents from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide
electronically to you through your DocuSign user account all required notices, disclosures,
authorizations, acknowledgments, and other documents that are required to be provided or made
available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of you
inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required
notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given
us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through
the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as
described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the
consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures
electronically from us.
How to contact Pitkin County:
You may contact us to let us know of your changes as to how we may contact you electronically,
to request paper copies of certain information from us, and to withdraw your prior consent to
receive notices and disclosures electronically as follows:

To advise Pitkin County of your new e-mail address

in the body of such request you must state: your previous e-mail address, your new e-mail
address .
In addition, you must notify DocuSign, Inc to arrange for your new email address to be reflected
in your DocuSign account by following the process for changing e-mail in DocuSign.
To request paper or electronic copies from Pitkin County
To request delivery from us of paper or electronic copies of the notices and disclosures
previously provided by us to you electronically, you should request those documents from Pitkin
County under the Colorado Open Records Act by contacting the Pitkin County custodian who
sent you the document for signature.

format you may:
