Conduit Bonding – New Harmony Care Center Administrator Thongvanh The City received a request from the New Harmony Care Center to issue a conduit bond to help finance their project. The City has done conduit bonding for a number of years, and we receive 0.25% of 1% of the total bond amount. Staff recommend approval of the resolution. Catherine Courtney, Taft We are the City’s bond counsel. New Harmony Care Center facility is aging and will be relocated to Maplewood, and will involve construction of a new nursing home as well as senior housing. Each City can issue up to 10 million of its own bonds and conduit 501c3 bonds in a calendar year. The City of Maplewood does not have the capacity to issue bonds for this project. Mayor Gustafson At this point we will open the public hearing. Sue Majerus Is there a standard for where the money goes? When is the last time we used the bonding money for the City? Administrator Thongvanh The money goes in the capital fund. The last time we used conduit bonding for the street project in the University Grove. Steven Sunderland, 1906 Prior Ave N What are the risks for conduit bonding for the City? 1 of 55 2 | Page Catherine Courtney There really are no risks, the obligation is on the borrower. New Harmony is responsible for paying the bonds. There is no liability to the City even if there is a default per MN Statute. Steven Sunderland Are we leaving enough bond authority for our own needs? Administrator Thongvanh We have about 2 million in capacity left. Our street project will require $650K, and the park building cost will be under a million and a half and some of this could be financed through existing funds. Steven Sunderland How are the conduit bond fees determined? Administrator Thongvanh Limited negotiation, typically they will ask other jurisdictions about their fees and try to match them with the other entities involved in the bonding. Most communities charge a quarter of one percent. Mayor Gustafson Hearing no further comment, the public hearing is now closed. Council Member Wehyee Does this impact taxes? Administrator Thongvanh No. Mayor Gustafson The budget impact is the revenue we earn, about $18,700. Motion by Council Member Miazga to approve Resolution 21-13; Approved, 5-0. 2. Tax Increment Financing – Amber Union Todd Hagen, Ehlers and Associates We’re considering the modification of the development program for the development district 1. We also have an adoption of an interfund loan agreement. Procedurally we have completed all the necessary steps that are required by statute. The TIF district has a maximum life of 26 years and the project appears to be consistent with the long-term economic development objectives of the City. Pete Deanovic, Buhl Investors Since the beginning my commitment has been to pursue all avenues for funding, and we have obtained funding for a variety of government sources outside the City. Administrator Thongvanh We’re hoping that in 15 years this project will be done with TIF. Council Member Wehyee Could you speak a little bit to the timeline? When will the project be completed? Pete Deanovic, Buhl Investors Subject to establishing the TIF district, we are prepared to close financing that’s required. The intent is to move forward before school is let out. We would like to begin prior to May 1, and we would like to have units available for rental in 2022 and we believe that by the end of 2022, it will be fully occupied. 2 of 55 3 | Page Mayor Gustafson We’ll open the public hearing at this time. Sue Majerus, 1381 Iowa Ave I want to make sure that the taxes will still be received on the land value. I’d like to have more understanding on how much money you have gotten from other entities. Todd Hagen, Ehlers Right now, the county assessor has assigned a base value that will be distributed to all three tax jurisdictions. Administrator Thongvanh There will be improvements to the land and building, so the value will be frozen on both and the increment captured and distributed to Buhl Investors for the duration of the agreement. Pete Deanovic, Buhl Investors We obtained grant funding from TBA, Environmental Relief, a Community Development Block Grant, and DEED. One thing that can drive up expenses is material selection when working with the historical restoration requirements. Sue Majerus, 1381 Iowa Ave Has the building been registered as a historical building? Pete Deanovic, Buhl Investors It has been registered, the National Park Service issued a historical registration for the property in 2020. All of our plans have been reviewed by NPS for historical reference and to ensure that our work is consistent with preservation requirements. Mayor Gustafson Seeing no other attendees looking to speak, we will close the hearing and open discussion to the Council. Council Member Miazga This has been a long road, I’m excited to support this project. Council Member Andrews I think this is a great thing, I am glad we can participate. Council Member Wehyee I am excited as well. It’s awesome that they will begin accepting residents as early as next year. Council Member Leehy I’m really appreciative of Pete and his team and their tenacity in finding grants. Mayor Gustafson I’d like to thank Buhl Investors for their work on this. Thank you for your vision. Motion by Council Member Leehy to approve the Resolution and to authorize the City Administrator to execute any necessary documents; Approved, 5-0. F. CONSENT AGENDA: 1.

Award Sale of General Obligation Improvement Bonds, Series 2021A Todd Hagen, Ehlers & Associates We received a bid today on the bonds for the projects. It’s a relatively small bond amount, it’s a short term of only 5 years and to get a better rate we went nonrated even though the City has a triple A rating. The bid had three participants. The bond will close on April 8 so the City will receive the funds then. The resolution in front of you will need approval and that will lock us into the rate. Motion to adopt Resolution 21-16 for the sale of the bonds and authorizing the City Administrator to execute all necessary documents by Council Member Andrews; Approved, 5-0. D.

Administrator Thongvanh It’s a raffle. Motion to approve the consent agenda by Council Member Leehy; Approved, 5-0. 5 of 55 2 | Page G: POLICY ITEMS: 1. Amber Union Agreement for Tax Base Revitalization Account Grant – Metropolitan Council Administrator Thongvanh We have met with the Met Council to get clarity on our fiscal responsibilities for the grant. Any administrative work involved in serving as the fiscal agent will be billed to Buhl Investors. We are currently working on an encroachment agreement as well as a timeline and a preconstruction meeting. Mayor Gustafson This project will remain as affordable housing during the duration of the grant period which is for 15 years. Motion to accept the award for the Tax Base Revitalization Grant from the Metropolitan Council by Council Member Wehyee; Approved, 5-0. 2. Police Services Update Administrator Thongvanh I met with Mayor Carter and Police Chief Axtell and they received our letter requesting services. They are now preparing a proposal for police services. We sent a letter to Ramsey County informing them that we do not intend to renew our contract and that we are considering alternative agencies. If we don’t come to an agreement with St. Paul, it does still give us the option of working with Ramsey County for police services. The letter needed to be sent by March 31 and if we come to an agreement with another agency, our contract with Ramsey County would end December 31, 2021. Council Member Wehyee Last year the Council passed the Sanctuary policy. I’m wondering if they are aware that this is one of our expectations for them. Administrator Thongvanh This is something we can communicate to St. Paul in our future conversations. I would be surprised if this wasn’t already a priority for Mayor Carter. Mayor Gustafson A lot of our policy language was based on the St. Paul language and their police department. Motion to give Administrator Thongvanh authority to provide notice to Ramsey County that we won’t be continuing the current agreement by Council Member Andrews; Approved, 5-0. H. INFORMATION/ANNOUNCEMENTS: Council Member Miazga Northeast Youth and Family Services (NYFS) has been in COVID-19 mode for the last year in terms of what they offer for seniors and assistance with chores. The outside chores have been resumed, but inside chores are suspended until it’s safe to do so. Any senior in the service area that would benefit should let NYFS know. They will be doing a spring cleanup in April. 6 of 55 3 | Page Council Member Leehy The Planning Commission is considering an ordinance on vacant homes and will be bringing it back for public input in the future. Council Member Andrews I appreciate the Mayor’s statement on violence against Asians and Asian Americans to affirm our stance on antiracism. Mayor Gustafson We are in discussion regarding a survey on 20mph speed limit in Falcon Heights. I would encourage people to continue to contact City Hall and their council members to share concerns and questions. Administrator Thongvanh I’m working with staff on implementing priorities from the Council Retreat. We’re continuing to work on projects including an agreement with the University regarding the storm sewer and our responsibilities and contribution. We’ll continue to work with Amber Union. There’s a lot of complexity with the five funding sources. I. COMMUNITY FORUM: Please limit comments to 3 minutes per person. Items brought before the Council will be referred for consideration. Council may ask questions for clarification, but no council action or discussion will be held on these items. J. ADJOURNMENT: 7:42PM ________________________________ Randall C.

In accordance with the employment agreement with Administrator Thongvanh the City Council members are to annually review the job performance and compensation. The City Council completed the 2020-2021 performance review and submitted the forms to the Mayor. The City Administrator's Performance Evaluation covers 50 scored questions and four narrative evaluation questions. Each of the ten categories of evaluation criteria contains five statements to rate performance on this scale: 5 = Excellent (almost always exceeds the performance standard) 4 = Above average (generally exceeds the performance standard) 3 = Average (generally meets the performance standard) 2 = Below average (usually does not meet the performance standard) 1 = Poor (rarely meets the performance standard) The Council expressed satisfaction with Mr. Thongvanh' s service to the City of Falcon Heights. The cumulative Administrator Performance score was 4.578. Administrator Thongvanh has a history of delivering professional service that exceeds expectations during his six year tenure. Mr. Thongvanh has professionally handled the extraordinary challenges that our City has faced these past six years including the Castile shooting; search and replacement of police service vendors; administrative operations of the Fire Department; staff turnover; establishing a plan for city financial stability; facilitation of many inclusion efforts; directing more robust city communications; guiding the multi-year process of redeveloping the TIES building so that the Amber Union Project providing 125 new affordable housing units was able to happen; providing city services during the covid-19 pandemic; and other items that are handled on a daily basis.

CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS BY: _______________________________ Randall C. Gustafson, Mayor Employee BY: _______________________________ Sack Thongvanh, City Administrator 23 of 55 BLANK PAGE 24 of 55 REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota __________________________ Item Parks – Picnic Tables Description Additional and replacement picnic tables need to be purchased to provide additional seating for people that visit our parks to adhere to CDC and MD Department of Health guidelines for social distancing under the pandemic. Budget Impact Funds have been allocated for the expenditure. Attachment(s) • Quote Action(s) Requested Staff recommends approval of purchasing picnic tables from Minnesota/Wisconsin Playground for $4,992.28. Meeting Date April 14, 2021 Agenda Item Consent F3 Attachment Quote Submitted By Sack Thongvanh, City Administrator 25 of 55 BLANK PAGE 26 of 55 27 of 55 28 of 55 REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota __________________________ Item Electronic Payment Platform Description The City accepts electronic payments for items such as building permits, business licenses, facility rentals, and park programming fees. This service allows staff to transact City business with customers remotely and offers a convenient option for customers to pay for services. The City has utilized PayPal in the past as its electronic payment platform and assesses customers a fee of roughly 3.1% + $0.30 per transaction. Traditionally, PayPal is not designed for use by government agencies and staff would like to move to another platform that would utilize the City’s Federal Tax ID rather than a current staff person’s SSN as authentication. AllPaid, formerly Government Payment Service, is a secure payment processing company that provides for secure onsite and online payments. AllPaid accepts all major credit and debit card companies and would require a smaller transaction fee of 2.65% for the customer. Local agencies that use AllPaid include the cities of Appleton, Garfield, and Carlton, as well as the Municipal Clerks and Finance Officers Association of Minnesota (MCFOA). Once an agreement with AllPaid is signed, staff would close the City’s PayPal account and work to transition all electronic payments to AllPaid. The estimated startup period is 30 days before we would begin accepting payments on the new platform. Budget Impact N/A Attachment(s) • AllPaid Agreement • 2021 City Fee Schedule Action(s) Requested 1. Staff recommend approval of the AllPaid Agreement and authorization of the City Administrator to execute all necessary documents. 2. Staff recommend a motion to amend the City Fee Schedule updating the credit/debit card convenience fee to 2.65% per transaction.

WHEREAS, AllPaid provides the “AllPaid Payment Network,” consisting of governments and other entities that contracted with AllPaid to accept payments made by individuals using credit cards, debit cards, prepaid debit cards, and other means of electronic payment (each, a “Payer” and collectively, “Payers”) for transmission to such entities, and Merchant, in order to improve Merchant’s services and enhance administration, desires to accept payments through AllPaid with such related support services as AllPaid provides; and WHEREAS, the entities that establish and govern the rules, regulations and guidelines for the credit card and debit card systems such as Visa U.S.A., Inc. and MasterCard International Incorporated (collectively, the “Payment Type Organizations” or “PTOs”) require that Merchant enter into a contractual relationship with an entity that is a member of the PTOs and agrees to comply with PTO Rules and regulations (“PTO Rules”) as they apply to credit and debit card transactions that are submitted to Worldpay by AllPaid on Merchant’s behalf; and WHEREAS, by Merchant executing this Agreement, Worldpay is made a party to this Agreement and Merchant understands that (i) Merchant has contracted with AllPaid to obtain certain processing services; (ii) AllPaid has agreed to be responsible for all or part of Merchant's obligations contained herein; and (iii) Merchant is fulfilling the PTO Rules. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual provisions contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Merchant, Worldpay, and AllPaid agree as follows: 1. Recitals. The above recitals are by this reference incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. 2. Security and Compliance. 2.1 Merchant acknowledges and agrees that in the event Payer uses a credit, debit, or prepaid debit card, certain PTO Rules apply to Merchant’s acceptance of Payers’ payments. Merchant further acknowledges and agrees that security standards and guidelines published by the Payment Card Industry (“PCI”) Security Standards Council including PCI Data Security Standards (“DSS”) are also applicable to Merchant’s acceptance of payments from Payers. In lieu of directly complying with all PTO Rules and PCI DSS requirements, Merchant may and hereby does appoint AllPaid as its agent to accept debit and credit cards and comply in full with all applicable PTO Rules and PCI DSS requirements, as they may be modified from time to time, on its behalf and AllPaid accepts such appointment subject to any limitations in this Agreement and any attachments hereto. If any PTO requires an audit and/or forensic investigation due to an actual or suspected data security compromise event in connection with transactions processed hereunder, an audit and/or forensic investigation of AllPaid and its operations shall be sufficient for such purposes provided, however, that Merchant agrees to cooperate with such audit and/or forensic investigation as AllPaid may reasonably request. DocuSign Envelope ID: 7B7BAC01-B2AE-4B64-9FA9-7530AF8CC561 31 of 55 AllPaidAgree.ID No. 7674 MN-CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS-MERCHANT, 2021APR8 Page 2 of 9 (AllPaid_MAForm _rev2020NOV01) 2.2 Merchant acknowledges that any Payer personal information it obtains will be obtained lawfully, shall be retained only as necessary for the performance of Merchant’s official duties, and will not be used by Merchant in violation of any PTO Rules or regulations or applicable law. 2.3 If at any time Merchant or AllPaid believes that Payer information has been compromised as a result of a breach of the AllPaid system, Merchant or AllPaid, as the case may be, must notify the other and AllPaid shall notify Worldpay, PTOs, Payers, and any other parties AllPaid is required to notify. 2.4 Merchant and AllPaid each additionally agree to comply, at each party’s expense, with all federal, state, and local laws and the requirements of regulatory agencies as they pertain to the respective parties’ businesses and operations. 3. AllPaid Obligations; Agency Appointment and Effect AllPaid and Merchant agree that AllPaid will enable Payers to pay amounts owed to Merchant as follows: 3.1 AllPaid shall act as Merchant’s authorized agent for the limited purpose of receiving payments from Payers on Merchant’s behalf and Merchant expressly authorizes AllPaid to act as its agent for the receipt of Payer funds. Payment from the Payer to AllPaid by use of AllPaid’s payment processing services shall be considered payment to Merchant, extinguishing the Payer's payment obligation to Merchant (in the amount paid by the Payer) as if the Payer had paid Merchant directly, subject to any right Merchant has to reject such transaction. AllPaid, and not the individual Payer, is solely liable to Merchant for Payer funds if AllPaid fails to remit funds to Merchant from Payers using AllPaid’s services. 3.2 AllPaid shall obtain on Merchant’s behalf authorization to process a charge to the Payer’s credit card account, debit such Payer’s debit card account, or take such other actions as may be required by Payer’s financial services provider for purposes of funding payment(s) by such Payer to Merchant. Such charges or debits shall be subject to acceptance by Payer’s financial services provider, PTO Rules, and any other applicable industry rules, laws, or regulations. 3.3 AllPaid shall act on Merchant’s behalf in applying the service fees listed on Attachment “A” to this Agreement. Payer shall pay all service fees unless Merchant advises AllPaid Merchant intends to absorb all or any part of the service fees in the manner provided in this Agreement. For any service fees Merchant elects to absorb, Merchant shall follow the payment procedures described in Attachment “B” to this Agreement. Merchant hereby authorizes AllPaid to net and retain as AllPaid’s sole compensation service fees paid by Payers in addition to the payment amounts. AllPaid may modify Payer fees at its sole option, providing Merchant with 30 days’ notice of such modification and a revised attachment reflecting modified fees prior to activating the new fee structure. Service fees are non-refundable. 3.4 AllPaid shall transmit payment transactions on Merchant’s behalf to Worldpay for further processing and shall further direct Worldpay to transfer Merchant’s portion of all settling funds received from PTOs to Merchant in accordance with then-standard AllPaid practices. AllPaid shall establish unique payment codes on its system for the routing of Payer funds to Merchant. Such codes shall be available to Payers through Merchant or by accessing AllPaid’s services. 3.5 AllPaid will maintain proper security and responsibility for Payer information while it is in AllPaid’s possession, all at AllPaid’s sole cost in accordance with applicable PCI DSS requirements, rules, laws, or regulations. 3.6 AllPaid shall be responsible for all chargebacks for payments made by card initiated not more than 180 days after the transaction. When a Payer initiates a chargeback within 180 days of a transaction, it automatically results in a provisional credit to the Payer from a AllPaid account. If AllPaid determines that a chargeback may be inappropriate, AllPaid expects Merchant to provide reasonable assistance in any challenge AllPaid makes to the chargeback. AllPaid reserves the right to adjust DocuSign Envelope ID: 7B7BAC01-B2AE-4B64-9FA9-7530AF8CC561 32 of 55 AllPaidAgree.ID No. 7674 MN-CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS-MERCHANT, 2021APR8 Page 3 of 9 (AllPaid_MAForm _rev2020NOV01) service and security levels as AllPaid reasonably deems necessary to maintain payment security and integrity. 3.7 AllPaid reserves the right to charge Merchant for services or equipment beyond the scope of this Agreement, such as custom software development, non-AllPaid standard peripheral devices, and other services and support as the parties may agree upon from time to time. 3.8 AllPaid shall provide administrative support to Payers and to Merchant through a toll-free telephone help line and the Internet. 3.9 AllPaid shall provide Merchant with participation procedures that Merchant must follow in using AllPaid’s payment services. In addition, AllPaid will provide Merchant with toll-free telephone numbers, web addresses, and promotional and instructional materials to market and explain the AllPaid service to Payers, and shall train Merchant staff on how to access and use, and how to assist Payers to access and use the AllPaid Payment Network. 3.10 AllPaid shall be responsible for all federal, state, and local taxes that may be imposed upon its services only. 4. Merchant Obligations Merchant’s continued participation in the AllPaid Payment Network is conditioned upon the following: 4.1 Merchant understands and agrees that its cooperation in promoting use of the AllPaid Payment Network is a significant consideration for Merchant and AllPaid entering into this Agreement. Merchant shall therefore (i) ensure that the appropriate employees participate in any AllPaid training or refresher training on the use and promotion of the AllPaid Payment Network and its associated services; (ii) keep available for reference any user manuals and instructional materials AllPaid provides to Merchant; (iii) display logos, signage, literature, and other promotional and instructional materials that AllPaid provides and otherwise inform and assist Payers to use AllPaid for their payments to Merchant; and (iv) cooperate with all reasonable AllPaid requests to encourage greater use of the AllPaid Payment Network. All marketing and promotion of AllPaid services by Merchant shall conform to guidelines provided by AllPaid from time to time. 4.2 Merchant shall provide telecommunication capabilities, such as telephone, facsimile, and Internet connections to enable Payers to access AllPaid from Merchant locations and enable AllPaid to communicate with Merchant. Further, Merchant shall be responsible for establishing and maintaining secure access at its locations to the AllPaid administrative system, including user identification, passwords and precautions for accessing all confidential information.

Merchant shall cooperate with AllPaid in the event of an overpayment to refund to AllPaid funds that AllPaid can demonstrate exceed Payer liabilities to Merchant. 4.4 Merchant shall provide AllPaid with prompt written notice of any change in the information Merchant provides to AllPaid necessary for Merchant’s participation in the AllPaid Payment Network, including but not limited to any change in its bank routing and account numbers. 4.5 In the event Merchant receives a payment from AllPaid that appears to have been obtained through the commission of civil or criminal fraud, Merchant shall cooperate in any resulting investigation. 4.6 Merchant shall not enter into any other agreement or make any other arrangement for services similar to those available through the AllPaid Payment Network for the duration of this Agreement.

Merchant may at any time (i) authorize AllPaid to accept additional types of payments within the scope of the applicable service fees; (ii) cancel the processing through AllPaid of any types of payments; and (iii) modify the account(s) to which AllPaid shall direct payments to Merchant by specifying all such changes to AllPaid in writing (for purposes of this attachment, “in writing” means via letter, email, or facsimile). Any such changes require reasonable lead-time to implement and are subject to AllPaid acceptance and confirmation in writing. Service Fees Service Fees may be the responsibility of Payer, Merchant, or shared by Payer and Merchant. Unless Merchant advises AllPaid otherwise, Merchant will be presumed to have chosen that Payers shall be responsible for all Service Fees. If Merchant elects to pay all or any portion of the Service Fee, Merchant must so advise AllPaid in writing. For any Service Fees Merchant elects to pay, AllPaid will debit Merchant’s account for Merchant’s share of the Service Fee in accordance with the terms of the debit authorization form Merchant completes. Merchant must allow AllPaid 30 days to make any changes Merchant requests to the Service Fee responsibility. Service Models AllPaid provides an e-commerce payment solution to entities that contract to participate in the AllPaid Payment Network. Basic service policies include a system designed to be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year; access to online administrative, analytical, and reporting capabilities; and customer service support to Merchant’s Payers and staff. AllPaid will cause funds to be forwarded electronically to Merchant’s designated account(s) for all approved transactions which are accepted by Merchant within two banking days after transaction authorization, or will remit funds by check if Merchant so requests in writing. Payers may make payment transactions via the Internet or by toll-free telephone. All payments are processed using the Internet regardless of their method of initiation. AllPaid makes various methods of system access available to paying parties, including integrated solutions. The following additional terms apply to Merchant’s use of selected services. By electing to utilize such services, Merchant agrees to the following: Gov$wipe: If Merchant selects Gov$wipe, AllPaid will provide Merchant with card readers and peripheral equipment (cables, etc.), which are and will remain the property of AllPaid. Merchant understands that AllPaid card readers are embedded with proprietary technology (“Firmware”). AllPaid grants Merchant a license to use such card readers and Firmware for the duration, and only for purposes of this Agreement. Acceptance and use of card readers does not convey to Merchant any title, patent, copyright, or other proprietary right in or to the Firmware. At all times, AllPaid or its suppliers retain all rights to the Firmware, including but not limited to updates, enhancements, and additions. Merchant shall not attempt to access or disclose the Firmware to any party, or transfer, copy, license, sublicense, modify, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, tamper with, or create any derivative work based on the Firmware. Merchant will use reasonable care to protect card readers from loss, theft, damage or encumbrance. AllPaid shall provide card readers and installation instructions at service implementation and when providing replacement or additional card readers by shipment to a location Merchant designates. Or, at AllPaid’s option, Merchant will allow AllPaid and its designated representatives reasonable access to Merchant’s premises for purposes of training or device installation, repair, removal, modification, upgrades, or relocation. AllPaid is solely responsible for the maintenance of its card readers and shall supply Merchant with replacements on Merchant’s request and as AllPaid deems appropriate. Upon termination of the Agreement, AllPaid may require Merchant to return card readers to AllPaid, at AllPaid’s expense and by such method as AllPaid specifies. Merchant may request an increase or decrease in the number of card readers deployed in writing. Any such changes will be subject to AllPaid acknowledgment and acceptance in writing. AllPaid shall communicate shipping and handling procedures and any costs to Merchant in advance of taking action. ConnexYourGov: If Merchant elects to utilize AllPaid’s ConnexYourGov solution, Merchant must provide AllPaid with photographs, graphics, digital assets, or digital images legally created, taken, or acquired by Merchant (collectively, “Images”) that Merchant desires AllPaid to use. All Images that participating Merchants deliver to AllPaid become DocuSign Envelope ID: 7B7BAC01-B2AE-4B64-9FA9-7530AF8CC561 38 of 55 AllPaidAgree.ID No. 7674 MN-CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS-MERCHANT, 2021APR8 Page 9 of 9 (AllPaid_MAForm _rev2020NOV01) subject upon delivery to a limited license granting AllPaid a non-exclusive right to reproduce, publicly display, and distribute the Images only for purposes of this Agreement. Any other AllPaid use of Images must be with Merchant’s express written permission. Images may contain copyright management information at the discretion of Merchant in the form of either (i) a copyright notice (©) and/or (ii) other copyright and ownership information embedded in the metadata or elsewhere, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. All rights relating to the Images remain the sole and exclusive property of Merchant. Security If desired, AllPaid may connect with Merchant’s systems in a variety of methods. Any interfaces AllPaid establishes shall be based on specifications Merchant and AllPaid mutually develop. Merchant is responsible for advising AllPaid of any system changes that may affect such interfaces prior to their implementation. A Merchant interfacing with AllPaid may receive Payer information that is subject to PCI DSS which will be the Merchant’s responsibility to secure. ALLPAID ACCEPTS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR SECURITY OR PCI DSS COMPLIANCE WITH RESPECT TO INFORMATION THAT RESIDES ON SYSTEMS OTHER THAN THOSE CONTROLLED BY ALLPAID. Gov$wipe card readers are designed to communicate Payer data to AllPaid through Merchant’s computing equipment to which they are cable-attached via USB port. Internet access to AllPaid is required for Gov$wipe transaction processing and is enabled solely by Merchant’s computers and networks. Merchant is responsible to use standard safeguards and practices to keep its computers and networks secure and free from malicious software or hardware. ALLPAID IS NOT LIABLE TO MERCHANT FOR EXPOSURE OF MERCHANT’S COMPUTERS OR NETWORKS TO MALICIOUS SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE OF ANY KIND. American Express® Card Acceptance 1. American Express Compliance.

Merchant is prohibited from processing transactions or receiving payments on behalf of, or (unless required by law) re-directing payments to any other party. 3. Third Party Beneficiary Rights. a. Not withstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Merchant confers on American Express the third party beneficiary rights, but not obligations, to the Merchant’s Agreement and subsequent addendums (collectively the “Agreement”) between Merchant and AllPaid and, as such, American Express has the express right to enforce the terms of the Agreement against the Merchant. b. Merchant warrants that it does not hold third party beneficiary rights to any agreements between AllPaid and American Express and at no time will attempt to enforce any such agreements against American Express. 4. American Express Liability.
