Mrs. Keohen of 68 Panorama Circle spoke of a future agenda item for a Loop Road. She stated that it would require
that the Corp of Engineers allow the Town to have a thoroughfare over Corp land. She indicated that a bridge would
be a more viable option regarding buy-in from the Corp. She stated that she has been in contact with the Corp,
TxDoT, North Texas Area Council of Governments, Land Planner, and Town Staff in putting together a proposal for
the Corp to consider a west/east 1,250 foot bridge. Her second request was that Council consider pulling the agenda
item for Video Production Services from the agenda (Item 4). She added that it was a large expense at $48,000 when
there is no email communication to our residents. She asked Council to pull Item 6; Financial Software, from the
agenda. She expressed there were many companies providing municipal accounting software for a lesser amount.
Alicia Fleury of 2214 Trophy Club Drive announced participation of the initiative, “Give Small Help Big” to support
Trophy Club businesses while helping local families in need. She stated that proceeds from t-shirt sales are used to

Town Council Page 7 of 92 November 17, 2020
appointment as Town Manager; his first hire was promoting Wade Carroll to Assistant Town Manager. He noted
several months have passed and there was never closure for Wade’s service with the TC Fire Department. He stated
this should have been done sooner although Covid interfered with many events that should have taken place.
Chief Taylor presented a shadow box that was specially arranged for Wade from his tenure as Fire Chief in Southlake

• Business Spotlight – The Force By Luke
Luke Fleming and Nikki Fleming addressed the Mayor and Council. Luke stated that they opened in 2016 next to
Vinny’s and recalled that Mayor Sanders was present for their opening. He said that they are glad to be part of TC
and has been a personal trainer for over 20 years. He added that having a personal trainer is more than having
someone instruct you, but a trust between two people to accomplish a goal for mental and muscle strength. He
noted that each nutrition plan and training plan is custom-made for each participant. He said they offer one on one
sessions for core and balance programs as well as rehabilitation and are open 7 days per week from 5AM to 8PM on
weekdays. Lastly, he stated that his family shops, eats, and supports local businesses in Trophy Club.
• Status of Trophy Club Town Center Development/Construction Progress
Mr. Norwood reported drainage issues have affected Hogan’s Glen as there are two ponds across Indian Creek. He
noted that this project started back in May 2018 and that is when the grading permit was pulled. As more of the
work was done; the lots were sold off for a hotel, apartments, townhomes, and retail. He added that just like any
other project; the Town does not design, stamp, or seal any of the plans. Those things are done by the private
developer which has a legal and ethical obligation to adhere to in order to ensure it is designed properly and in
accordance to the Town’s standards. Stantec is the firm that provided the plans for PD-30. He added that Stantec,
is a global firm that sealed and stamped the plans for PD-30 (Town Center). The Town of Trophy Club did review,
through consulting engineers, Teague, Nall, & Perkins (TNP), the plans that they sealed. He noted TNP is a large firm
out of Dallas-Ft Worth who have been in business for over 40 years. Mr. Norwood added that anytime there were
modifications or revisions; TNP reviewed the plans on behalf of the city and they were sealed and stamped at that
point. He added TECQ regulates much of the drainage piece and that the Town has not been fined noting we have
not been lax in our duties. He noted anytime there have been complaints; they have been addressed. He reported
that the Town received another TECQ complaint yesterday and will investigate and respond. He noted that there
has been discussion of a restrictor plate that should have been installed at the beginning. Said installation was the
last thing that was completed; and the engineers sealed it after the installation. The engineers will state that they
Town Council Page 8 of 92 November 17, 2020
have designed it accordingly and it is up to the contractor to build it according to the plans; that does not mean
everything is perfect. He noted that one of the bigger issues is the silt in the ponds from PD-30; and to what extent
and what is the remedy to correct that is what is needed. He noted that Beck Properties was the original owner of
PD-30. The ponds in Hogan’s Glen; that ownership resides with Beck. The language on the plat reads that the HOA
is required to maintain the ponds but that does not negate the fact that Hogan’s Glen does not own the property.
He added that it could be an issue between Hogan’s Glen HOA and Beck or the contractors doing work at PD-30. He
concluded his report by stating that Town Center is at 60% complete for the townhouses and the retail lacks their
build-out.
• Status of Indian Creek Drainage Issue
Mr. Norwood reported that they have had meetings with Teague, Nall, & Perkins, the homeowners, and have
conceptual plans. Phase I would address the most pressing issue along Indian Creek, where the water all converges
on the street. He stated that ideally they would have to go up on Hillside Street to capture the drainage but noted
that this was not a recommendation. He noted that it was not addressed when Indian Creek was done as it was a
separate project and there were insufficient funds to address. In order to address the drainage issue; the estimate
is in the range of $2-2.5 million. He added that in the next month, they would be looking to make final
recommendations to Council who will make the final decision to address this and have the engineers come up with
a design. He noted that Tom Rutledge of Teague, Nall & Perkins would be in attendance for said council meeting.

Motion:

INDIVIDUAL ITEMS
Take appropriate action the approval of a contract with Five Stone Creative in an amount not to exceed $48,000
for Video Production Services for General Communication and Marketing Services (J. Lind).
Council Member Bone expressed that $48,000 was a lot of money to spend on video services without detail. Mrs.
Jill Lind mentioned they had worked up a loose framework to formalize with the vendor. Town Manager Norwood
stated that video production services are expensive but in light of Covid; the Town placed $50,000 in the budget for
these type of services. He added that with regards to videos; the amount of viewership is incredibly higher than a
post. He added that right now it is very difficult to communicate with people; thus, this can be used as a new
program to highlight upcoming events and new Police Department programs. Council Member Monger stated that
Town Council Page 9 of 92 November 17, 2020
from his experience in the non-profit realm; the proposal amount is not out of line. He added that the amount was
in the budget which has been adopted. He asked what was the desired outcome regarding views and what will be
measured. Mrs. Lind explained that they would use the video services to change the tone of the community and
highlight new programs. She added that videos would be a new way to communicate with our residents and
reinforce the services provided to the community. She provided an example of using a video message to
communicate to the residents of the Public Improvement District and explain what it means as well as the required
processes as so many residents always have questions. Mayor Sanders asked of the contract payment schedule.
Mrs. Lind replied that the town would pay a monthly fee based on completed video hours which equates to 2-3
videos of 2 minutes each per month. Mayor Sanders asked if not all minutes are not used within the year; they are
extended into the following year. Mrs. Lind replied that was correct.
Council Member Bone suggested tying in our Economic Development Corporation (EDC) in the video production
services contract and add a business development component to the framework for a shared expense. Mrs. Lind
noted that they had not talked about that but could look into it to offset the cost. Council Member Geraci felt that
having one on retainer is not in line with industry standards. He asked that staff come back with a framework or
marketing plan that includes EDC and coverage of the Trophy Club Sports Events. He also suggested bullet points
on what Council voted on and approved during Town Council Meetings. Mayor Pro Tem Shoffner stated that he
supports the item as it was budgeted and added that as Council; we are most criticized for lack of communication.
He added that this is much more effective than emails or posts. Mayor Sanders asked if there was a cancellation
clause. Mrs. Lind answered yes with a 60-day notice. Council Member Bone asked if there was a penalty aside from
the 60-day cancellation notice. Mr. Dodd replied no. Council Member Geraci stated that he was more inclined to
support this item with the cancellation clause. Mrs. Lind stated that she would provide the Council an update of the
framework.
Council Member Bone moved to deny the item but have staff come back with a detailed plan with the involvement
of EDC for a shared expense. The motion failed due to lack of a second. Council Member Monger moved to approve
Item 4 not to exceed $48,000 for video production services. Mayor Pro Tem Shoffner seconded the motion. The
motion carried as follows:
AYE: Monger, Schoffner, Geraci, and Mayor Sanders
NAY: Bone
Motion:
4-1-0
Take appropriate action regarding the Annual Licensing and Support from Tyler Technologies for Incode Financial
Software Application not to exceed $43,000 (M. Erwin).
Council Member Geraci mentioned that one of his personal email account mentioned a security breach of Tyler
Technologies. Mr. Mike Erwin responded that VersaTrust is well aware of it and has been on top of it by re-
establishing connections and resetting passwords. Mr. Carroll added that Trophy Club was not affected and that
VersaTrust put protections in place immediately. Mr. Norwood clarified that this item was not the acquisition of
financial software but the licensing of the financial software that runs our financial system, municipal court system,
accounts payable system, and human resources system. Mr. Erwin noted that the amount reflects a 5% increase
from last year’s cost. Mayor Sanders asked how long the Town had been using Incode. Mr. Erwin stated since 2013.
Mayor Sanders added that one cannot drop a system due to a breach and stated that the change of software has to
be planned. Mayor Pro Tem Shoffner added that this is one area that needs to be reviewed as new staff come in;
they inherit what is in place. He asked that staff do a better job in assessing what systems are in place and what is
best to utilize; perhaps at the retreat a list of systems and options can be reviewed.
Council Member Geraci moved to approve Item 6. Council Member Bone seconded the motion. The motion carried
unanimously.

Re: Fiscal Year 2020 – Fourth Quarter Investment Report
Town Council Meeting, November 17, 2020
Agenda Item:
Consider and take appropriate action regarding the Fourth Quarter Investment Report for Fiscal
Year 2020 (S. Norwood).
Strategic Link:
Administrative & Financial Services – Exercise fiscal discipline in all Town operations.
Background and Explanation:
The Town’s current interest-bearing accounts have an ending market value of $13,935,231 as of
September 30, 2020, which is a decrease of ($2,866,449) since June 30, 2020. Property tax
revenue is collected primarily in the first and second quarters of the year. It is normal for outflows
to exceed inflows in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. The Town has $916,000 more cash than
this time last year. The portfolio is liquid with a weighted average life of 1 days.
The total average yield for this quarter was .28% which is higher than the average rolling 6-month
Treasury-Bill yield of .15% for the same period.
A substantial portion of the Town’s investments remain placed in the InterBank Insured Cash
Sweep account to take advantage of the fund’s liquidity and the 0.45% yield.
Financial Considerations:
Interest earnings for this quarter total $11,467, this gives the Town a year to date interest earning
of $156,623 for Fiscal Year 2020.

TOWN OF TROPHY CLUB
INVESTMENT POLICY
I. POLICY
It is the policy of the Town of Trophy Club that after allowing for the anticipated cash flow requirements of
the Town of Trophy Club and giving due consideration to the safety and risk of investment, all available
funds shall be invested in conformance with these legal and administrative guidelines, seeking to optimize
interest earnings to the maximum extent possible.
Effective cash management is recognized as essential to good fiscal management. Investment interest is
a source of revenue to Trophy Club funds. Trophy Club’s investment portfolio shall be designed and
managed in a manner designed to maximize this revenue source, to be responsive to public trust, and to
be in compliance with legal requirements and limitations.
Investments shall be made with the primary objectives of:
∗ Safety and preservation of principal
∗ Maintenance of sufficient liquidity to meet operating needs
∗ Public trust from prudent investmentactivities
∗ Optimization of interest earnings on the portfolio
II. PURPOSE
The purpose of this Investment Policy is to comply with Chapter 2256 of the Government Code (“Public
Funds Investment Act” or “PFIA”), which requires the Town of Trophy Club to adopt a written investment
policy regarding the investment of its funds and funds under its control. The Investment Policy addresses
the methods, procedures and practices that must be exercised to ensure effective and judicious fiscal
management of Trophy Club’s funds.
III. SCOPE
This Investment Policy shall govern the investment of all financial assets of the Town of Trophy Club.
These funds are accounted for in the Town of Trophy Club’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report
(CAFR) and include:
• General Fund
• Special Revenue Funds
• Capital Projects Funds
• Proprietary Funds
• Debt Service Funds, including reserves and sinking funds, to the extent not required by law or
existing contract to be kept segregated and managed separately
• Any new fund created by the Town of Trophy Club, unless specifically exempted from this Policy by
the Town Council or by law
The Town of Trophy Club consolidates fund cash balances to maximize investment earnings. Investment
income will be allocated to the various funds based on their respective participation and in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles.
This Investment Policy shall apply to all transactions involving the financial assets and related activity for
all the foregoing funds. However, this Policy does not apply to the assets administered for the benefit of
the Town of Trophy Club by outside agencies under deferred compensation programs.
Town Council Page 39 of 92 November 17, 2020
IV. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES
The Town of Trophy Club shall manage and invest its cash with four primary objectives, listed in order of
priority: safety, liquidity, public trust, and yield, expressed as optimization of interest earnings. The safety
of the principal invested always remains the primary objective. All investments shall be designed and
managed in a manner responsive to the public trust and consistent with state and local law.
The Town of Trophy Club shall maintain a comprehensive cash management program, which includes
collection of accounts receivable, vendor payments in accordance with the Town’s purchasing policies,
and prudent investment of available cash. Cash management is defined as the process of managing
monies in order to ensure maximum cash availability and maximum earnings on short-term investment of
idle cash.
Safety [PFIA 2256.005(b)(2)]
Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Investments shall be undertaken
in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. The objective will be
to mitigate credit and interest rate risk.
Credit Risk and Concentration of Credit Risk – The Town of Trophy Club will minimize credit risk, the
risk of loss due to the failure of the issuer or backer of the investment, and concentration of credit risk,
the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of investment in a single issuer,by:
• Limiting investments to the safest types of investments.
• Pre-qualifying the financial institutions and broker/dealers with which the Town of Trophy Club will
do business.
• Diversifying the investment portfolio so that potential losses on individual issuers will be
minimized.
Interest Rate Risk – the Town of Trophy Club will manage the risk that the interest earnings and the
market value of investments in the portfolio will fall due to changes in general interest rates by limiting
the maximum weighted average maturity of the investment portfolio to 365 days. The Town of Trophy
Club will, in addition:
• Structure the investment portfolio so that investments mature to meet cash requirements for
ongoing operations, thereby avoiding the need to liquidate investments prior to maturity.
• Invest operating funds primarily in financial institution deposits, shorter-term securities, money
market mutual funds, or local government investment pools functioning as money market mutual
funds.
• Diversify maturities and stagger purchase dates to minimize the impact of market movements
over time.
Liquidity [PFIA 2256.005(b)(2)]
The investment portfolio shall remain sufficiently liquid to meet all operating requirements that may be
reasonably anticipated. This is accomplished by structuring the portfolio so that investments mature
concurrent with cash needs to meet anticipated demands. Because all possible cash demands cannot be
anticipated, a portion of the portfolio will be invested in shares of money market mutual funds, local
government investment pools, or other cash equivalents that offer same-day liquidity.
Town Council Page 40 of 92 November 17, 2020
Public Trust
All participants in the Town of Trophy Club’s investment process shall seek to act responsibly as
custodians of the public trust. The Investment Officers shall avoid any transaction that might impair
public confidence in the Town of Trophy Club’s ability to govern effectively.
Yield (Optimization of Interest Earnings) [PFIA 2256.005(b)(3)]
The investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a market rate of return throughout
budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the investment risk constraints and liquidity
needs. Return on investment is of secondary importance compared to the safety and liquidity objectives
described above.
V. INVESTMENT STRATEGY STATEMENTS
The Town of Trophy Club portfolio will be structured to benefit from anticipated market conditions and to
achieve a reasonable return. Relative value among asset groups shall be analyzed and pursued as part
of the investment program within the restrictions set forth by the Investment Policy.

of the Town’s investment program and may direct the other Investment Officer in his/her duties. The
Investment Officers are authorized to deposit, withdraw, invest, transfer, execute documentation, and
otherwise manage funds on behalf of the Town of Trophy Club according to this Policy. Unless authorized
by law, no other person may deposit, withdraw, transfer or manage in any other manner the Town of
Trophy Club funds. The investment authority granted to the Investment Officers is effective until rescinded.
Quality and Capability of Investment Management [PFIA 2256.005(b)(3)]
The Town of Trophy Club shall provide periodic training in investments for the designated Investment
Officers and other investment personnel through courses and seminars offered by professional
organizations, associations, and other independent sources in order to ensure the quality and capability

Officers shall attend investment training no less often than once every two years and shall accumulate

defined by PFIA section 2256.005(k) as local government investment pools and discretionary investment
management firms, must sign a certification acknowledging that the organization has received and
reviewed the Town of Trophy Club’s Investment Policy and that reasonable procedures and controls
have been implemented to preclude investment transactions that are not authorized by the Town of
Trophy Club’s Policy except to the extent that the authorization is dependent on an analysis of the makeup
of the Town's entire portfolio, requires an interpretation of subjective investment standards, or relates to
investment transactions of the Town that are not made through accounts or other contractual arrangements
over which the business organization has accepted discretionary investment authority. The Town shall not
enter into an investment transaction with a business organization prior to receiving the signed certification.
Prudence [PFIA 2256.006]
The standard of care to be applied by the Investment Officers shall be the “prudent person” rule. This
rule states that “Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under prevailing circumstances, that a
person of prudence, discretion and intelligence would exercise in the management of the person’s own
affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of capital and the probable
income to be derived.” In determining whether an Investment Officer has exercised prudence with
respect to an investment decision, the determination shall be made taking into consideration:
• The investment of all funds, or funds under the Town of Trophy Club’s control, over which the Officer
had responsibility rather than a consideration as to the prudence of a singleinvestment.
• Whether the investment decision was consistent with the written, approved Investment Policy of the
Town of Trophy Club.
Indemnification
The Investment Officers, acting in accordance with written procedures and exercising due diligence, shall
not be held personally responsible for a specific investment’s credit risk or market price changes,
provided that these deviations are reported immediately and the appropriate action is taken to control
adverse developments.
Ethics and Conflicts of Interest [PFIA 2256.005(i)]
Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity
that would conflict with the proper execution and management of the investment program, or that would
impair their ability to make impartial decisions. Investment Committee members shall refrain from
undertaking personal investment transactions with the same individual with which business is conducted
on behalf of the Town of Trophy Club.
An Investment Officer of the Town of Trophy Club who has a personal business relationship with an
organization seeking to sell an investment to the Town of Trophy Club shall file a statement disclosing
that personal business interest. An Investment Officer who is related within the second degree by affinity
or consanguinity to an individual seeking to sell an investment to the Town of Trophy Club shall file a
statement disclosing that relationship. A statement required under this subsection must be filed with the
Texas Ethics Commission and the Town Council.
Town Council Page 44 of 92 November 17, 2020
VII. SUITABLE AND AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS
Portfolio Management
The Town of Trophy Club currently has a “buy and hold” portfolio strategy. Maturity dates are matched
with cash flow requirements and investments are purchased with the intent to be held until maturity.
However, investments may be liquidated prior to maturity for the following reasons:
• An investment with declining credit maybe liquidated early to minimize loss of principal.
• Cash flow needs of the Town of Trophy Club require that the investment be liquidated.
Investments [PFIA 2256.005(b)(4)(A)]
Trophy Club funds governed by this Policy may be invested in the instruments described below, all of
which are authorized by Chapter 2256 of the Government Code (Public Funds Investment Act).
Investment of Town of Trophy Club funds in any instrument or security not authorized for investment
under the Act is prohibited. The Town of Trophy Club will not be required to liquidate an investment that
becomes unauthorized subsequent to its purchase.

depository institutions in accordance with the conditions prescribed in Section 2256.010(b) of the
Public Funds Investment Act are authorized investments. Additionally, funds invested by the
Town through a broker that has a main office or branch office in Texas and is selected from a list

Town Council Page 45 of 92 November 17, 2020
5. Fully collateralized direct repurchase agreements with a defined termination date secured by
obligations of the United States or its agencies and instrumentalities. These shall be pledged to the
Town of Trophy Club, held in an account in the Town of Trophy Club’s name, and deposited at the
time the investment is made with the Town of Trophy Club or with a third-party selected and approved
by the Town of Trophy Club. Repurchase agreements must be purchased through a primary
government securities dealer, as defined by the Federal Reserve, or a financial institution doing
business in Texas. A Master Repurchase Agreement, or similar agreement, must be signed by the
bank/dealer prior to investment in a repurchase agreement. All repurchase agreement transactions
will be on a delivery versus payment basis. Securities received for repurchase agreements must
have a market value greater than or equal to 102 percent at the time funds are disbursed. (This
section pertains to Sweep Accounts and/or Bond Proceeds)
6. No-Load Money Market Mutual funds that: 1) are registered and regulated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission and provide a prospectus and other information required by the Securities
and Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. Section 78a) or the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15

If an investment in the Town’s portfolio becomes an unauthorized investment due to changes in the
Investment Policy or the Public Funds Investment Act, or an authorized investment is rated in a way that
causes it to become an unauthorized investment, the Investment Committee of the Town shall review the
investment and determine whether it would be more prudent to hold the investment until its maturity, or to
redeem the investment. The Investment Committee shall consider the time remaining until maturity of
the investment, the quality of the investment, and the quality and amounts of any collateral which may be
securing the investment in determining the appropriate steps to take. [PFIA 2256.021].
II. Not Authorized [PFIA 2256.009(b)(1-4)]
Investments including interest-only or principal-only strips of obligations with underlying mortgage-backed
security collateral, collateralized mortgage obligations with an inverse floating interest rate or a maturity
date of over 10 years are strictly prohibited.
VIII. INVESTMENT PARAMETERS
Maximum Maturities [PFIA 2256.005(b)(4)(B)]
The longer the maturity of investments, the greater their potential price volatility. Therefore, it is the Town
of Trophy Club’s policy to concentrate its investment portfolio in shorter-term securities in order to limit
principal risk caused by changes in interest rates.
The Town of Trophy Club attempts to match its investments with anticipated cash flow requirements.
The Town of Trophy Club will not directly invest in securities maturing more than three years from the
date of purchase; however, the above described obligations, certificates, or agreements may be
collateralized using longer dated investments.
Because no secondary market exists for repurchase agreements, the maximum maturity shall be 120
days except in the case of a flexible repurchase agreement for bond proceeds. The maximum maturity
for such an investment shall be determined in accordance with project cash flow projections and the
requirements of the governing bond ordinance.
The composite portfolio will have a weighted average maturity of 365 days or less. The dollar-weighted
Town Council Page 46 of 92 November 17, 2020
average maturity will be calculated using the stated final maturity dates of each security. [PFIA
2256.005(b)(4)(C)].
Diversification [PFIA 2256.005(b)(3)]
The Town of Trophy Club recognizes that investment risks can result from issuer defaults, market price
changes or various technical complications leading to temporary illiquidity. Risk is managed through
portfolio diversification that shall be achieved by the following general guidelines:
• Limiting investments to avoid overconcentration in investments from a specific issuer or business
sector (excluding U.S. Treasury securities and financial institution deposits that are fully insured and
collateralized in accordance with state and federal law),
• Limiting investments that have higher credit risk,
• Utilizing investments with varying maturities, and
• Continuously investing a portion of the portfolio in readily available funds such as local government
investment pools (LGIPs), money market accounts, money market funds, or overnight repurchase
agreements to ensure that appropriate liquidity is maintained in order to meet ongoingobligations.
IX. SELECTION OF BANKS AND DEALERS
Depository
At least every five years a Depository shall be selected through the Town of Trophy Club’s banking
services procurement process, which shall include a formal request for application (RFA). The selection
of a depository will be determined by competitive application and evaluation of applications will be based
on the most favorable terms and conditions for the handling of Town funds.
Authorized Brokers/Dealers [PFIA 2256.025]
The Town of Trophy Club Investment Committee (see Section XIII) shall, at least annually, review, revise,
and approve a list of qualified broker/dealers authorized to engage in securities transactions with the
Town of Trophy Club. Authorized firms may include primary dealers or regional dealers that qualify
under Securities & Exchange Commission Rule 15C3-1 (Uniform Net Capital Rule).
Competitive Bids
It is the policy of the Town of Trophy Club to provide a competitive environment for all investment
activities. The Investment Officers shall develop and maintain procedures for ensuring competition in the
investment of the Town of Trophy Club’s funds and are authorized to solicit bids for investments orally, in
writing, electronically, or in any combination of these methods.

pools and mutual funds. Funds will be released after notification that the purchased security has been
received.

owned by the Town of Trophy Club as part of its investment portfolio or held as collateral to secure
demand or time deposits. Securities owned by the Town of Trophy Club shall be held in an account in

Consistent with the requirements of the Public Funds Collateral Act, it is the policy of the Town of Trophy
Club to require full collateralization of all Town of Trophy Club funds on deposit with a financial institution
and a written depository agreement acceptable to the Town. The market value of the securities
collateralizing the deposit of funds shall be at least equal to 102% of the principal and accrued interest
on the deposits less an amount insured by the FDIC. Collateral in the form of letters of credit issued by
the Federal Home Loan Bank must be equal to 100% of the principal and accrued anticipated interest of
deposits less the applicable level of FDIC insurance. At its discretion, the Town of Trophy Club may
require a higher level of collateralization for certain investment securities held as collateral. Securities
pledged as collateral shall be held by an independent third-party with whom the Town of Trophy Club
has a current custodial agreement. The Investment Officers are responsible for entering into
collateralization agreements with third-party custodians in compliance with this Policy. The agreements
are to specify the acceptable investment securities for collateral, including provisions relating to
possession of the collateral, the substitution or release of investment securities, ownership of securities,
and the method of valuation of securities. A clearly marked evidence of pledge must be supplied to the
Town of Trophy Club and retained. Collateral shall be reviewed at least monthly to assure that the market
value of the pledged securities are adequate.

of default, bankruptcy or closing and shall establish a perfected security interest in compliance with
Federal and State regulations, including:
• The Agreement must be in writing;
• The Agreement must be executed by the depository and the Town contemporaneously with the
acquisition of the asset;
• The Agreement must be approved by the board of directors or the loan committee of the depository
and a copy of the meeting minutes must be delivered to the Town; and

recognized rating firm not less than A

Re: Microsoft Licensing and VMware support and Subscription
Council Meeting, November 17, 2020
Agenda Item:
Consider and take appropriate action to approve the purchase of Microsoft licensing for
Microsoft 365 and VMware support and subscription production from SHI Government Solutions
in an amount not to exceed $47,966.08.
Strategic Link:
This item relates primarily to the following strategic priorities and goals of the Town’s strategy
map.
Administrative & Financial Services – Provide high value technology and information services
Administrative & Financial Services – Provide strong internal and external marketing and
communications.
Background and Explanation:
The Town utilizes Microsoft Office365 licenses for email and Microsoft Office desktop
applications as well as Microsoft licensing for all Windows Server operating systems and database
driven server applications. The SHI renewal quote is to renew the Microsoft Enterprise
Agreement which allows the Town to continue to use the software. This is a three year renewal
agreement, and the price in the quote is for year one. There will be an invoice in each of the three
years of the Enterprise Agreement.
The SHI VMWare Production support renewal is to renew support and software licensing that
allows the Town’s physical servers to run VMware’s server virtualization software. This also
allows the Town to access mission critical VMware system support to ensure the highest
availability of the Town’s servers and applications. The virtualization software allows many
Windows Server operating systems to run on a single physical server, allowing the Town to
maximize the investment made in the physical servers.
Town Council Page 54 of 92 November 17, 2020
SHI is a Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) vendor and is on a governmental purchasing
cooperative satisfying the bidding requirement. The purchase is an annual expenditure within
the approved Information Services budget for FY2021. Once the quote is accepted we will enter
into a three year agreement with a 60 day without cause cancelation policy by either party.
Financial Considerations:
Funding for this item is available in the FY21 Information Services Approved Budget line item
Software and Support. As mentioned, SHI contract is through the Department of Information
Resources of the State of Texas (DIR-TSO-4092).

2. How the Enterprise program works.
a. General. The Enterprise program consists of the terms and conditions on which an Enrolled
Affiliate may acquire Product Licenses. Under the Enterprise program, Customer and its
Affiliates may order Licenses for Products by entering into Enrollments.
b. Enrollments. The Enterprise program gives Customer and/or its Affiliates the ability to enter
into one or more Enrollments to order Products. Subscription Enrollments may be available for
some of these Enrollments. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, only
Enrolled Affiliates identified in an Enrollment will be responsible for complying with the terms
Town Council Page 59 of 92 November 17, 2020
of that Enrollment, including the terms of this Agreement incorporated by reference in that
Enrollment.
c. Licenses. The types of Licenses available are (1) Licenses obtained under Software
Assurance (L&SA), and (2) Subscription Licenses. These License types, as well as additional
License Types, are further described in the Product List.
3. Licenses for Products.
a. License Grant. Microsoft grants the Enterprise a non-exclusive, worldwide and limited right
to download, install and use software Products, and to access and use the Online Services,
each in the quantity ordered under an Enrollment. The rights granted are subject to the terms
of this Agreement, the Use Rights and the Product Terms. Microsoft reserves all rights not
expressly granted in this Agreement.
b. Duration of Licenses. Subscription Licenses and most Software Assurance rights are
temporary and expire when the applicable Enrollment is terminated or expires, unless the
Enrolled Affiliate exercises a buy-out option, which is available for some Subscription Licenses.
Except as otherwise noted in the applicable Enrollment or Use Rights, all other Licenses
become perpetual only when all payments for that License have been made and the initial
Enrollment term has expired.
c. Applicable Use Rights. The latest Use Rights as updated from time to time, apply to the use
of all Products, subject to the following exceptions.
(i) For products with metered usage-based pricing (e.g. metered Microsoft Azure
Services) Material adverse changes published after the start of a calendar month will
apply beginning the following month.
(ii) For Versioned Software. Material adverse changes published after the date a Product is
first licensed will not apply to any licenses for that Product acquired during the applicable
Enrollment term unless the changes are published with the release of a new version and
Customer chooses to update to that version. Renewal of Software Assurance does not
change which Use Rights apply to perpetual Licenses acquired during a previous term or
Enrollment
(iii) For all other Products (e.g. Office 365 services). Material adverse changes published
after the start of the subscription term will not apply to any licenses for that Product acquired
during the applicable Enrollment term.
(iv) For use rights granted through Software Assurance. Material adverse changes
published after the date a Product is first licensed will not apply to any licenses for that
Product during the applicable enrollment term unless the changes are published with the
release of a new version and Customer chooses to update to that version.
d. Downgrade rights. Enrolled Affiliate may use an earlier version of a Product other than Online
Services than the version that is current on the effective date of the Enrollment. For Licenses
acquired in the current Enrollment term, the Use Rights for the current version apply to the use
of the earlier version. If the earlier Product version includes features that are not in the new
version, then the Use Rights applicable to the earlier version apply with respect to those
features.
e. New Version Rights under Software Assurance. Enrolled Affiliate must order and maintain
continuous Software Assurance coverage for each License ordered. With Software Assurance
coverage, Enterprise automatically has the right to use a new version of a licensed Product as
soon as it is released, even if Enrolled Affiliate chooses not to use the new version immediately.
(i) Except as otherwise permitted under an Enrollment, use of the new version will be subject
to the new version’s Use Rights.
Town Council Page 60 of 92 November 17, 2020
(ii) If the License for the earlier version of the Product is perpetual at the time the new version
is released, the License for the new version will also be perpetual. Perpetual Licenses
obtained through Software Assurance replace any perpetual Licenses for the earlier
version.
f. License confirmation. This Agreement, the applicable Enrollment, Enrolled Affiliate’s order
confirmation, and any documentation evidencing transfers of perpetual Licenses, together with
proof of payment, will be Enrolled Affiliate’s evidence of all Licenses obtained under an
Enrollment.
g. Reorganizations, consolidations and privatizations. If the number of Licenses covered by
an Enrollment changes by more than ten percent as a result of (1) a reorganization,
consolidation or privatization of an entity or an operating division, (2) a privatization of an
Affiliate or an operating division of Enrolled Affiliate or any of its Affiliates, or (3) a consolidation
including a merger with a third party that has an existing agreement or Enrollment, Microsoft
will work with Enrolled Affiliate in good faith to determine how to accommodate its changed
circumstances in the context of this Agreement.
4. Making copies of Products and re-imaging rights.
a. General. Enrolled Affiliate may make as many copies of Products, as it needs to distribute
them within the Enterprise. Copies must be true and complete (including copyright and
trademark notices) from master copies obtained from a Microsoft approved fulfillment source.
Enrolled Affiliate may use a third party to make these copies, but Enrolled Affiliate agrees it will
be responsible for any third party’s actions. Enrolled Affiliate agrees to make reasonable efforts
to notify its employees, agents, and any other individuals who use the Products that the
Products are licensed from Microsoft and subject to the terms of this Agreement.
b. Copies for training/evaluation and back-up. For all Products other than Online Services,
Enrolled Affiliate may: (1) use up to 20 complimentary copies of any licensed Product in a
dedicated training facility on its premises for purposes of training on that particular Product, (2)
use up to 10 complimentary copies of any Products for a 60-day evaluation period, and (3) use
one complimentary copy of any licensed Product for back-up or archival purposes for each of
its distinct geographic locations. Trials for Online Services may be available if specified in the
Use Rights.
c. Right to re-image. In certain cases, re-imaging is permitted using the Product media. If the
Microsoft Product is licensed (1) from an original equipment manufacturer (OEM), (2) as a full
packaged Product through a retail source, or (3) under another Microsoft program, then media
provided under this Agreement may generally be used to create images for use in place of
copies provided through that separate source. This right is conditional upon the following:
(i) Separate Licenses must be acquired from the separate source for each Product that is re-
imaged.
(ii) The Product, language, version, and components of the copies made must be identical to
the Product, language, version, and all components of the copies they replace, and the
number of copies or instances of the re-imaged Product permitted remains the same.
(iii) Except for copies of an operating system and copies of Products licensed under another
Microsoft program, the Product type (e.g., Upgrade or full License) re-imaged must be
identical to the Product type licensed from the separate source.
(iv) Enrolled Affiliate must adhere to any Product-specific processes or requirements for re-
imaging identified in the Product Terms.
Re-imaged Products remain subject to the terms and use rights of the License acquired from
the separate source. This subsection does not create or extend any Microsoft warranty or
support obligation.
Town Council Page 61 of 92 November 17, 2020
5. Transferring and reassigning Licenses.
a. License transfers. License transfers are not permitted, except that Customer or an Enrolled
Affiliate may transfer only fully paid perpetual Licenses to:
(i) an Affiliate, or
(ii) a third party solely in connection with the transfer of hardware or employees to whom the
Licenses have been assigned as part of (1) a privatization of an Affiliate or agency or of an
operating division of Enrolled Affiliate or an Affiliate, (2) a reorganization, or (3) a
consolidation.
Upon such transfer, Customer or Enrolled Affiliate must uninstall and discontinue using the
licensed Product and render any copies unusable.
b. Notification of License Transfer. Enrolled Affiliate must notify Microsoft of a License transfer
by completing a license transfer form, which can be obtained from
http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/contracts and sending the completed form to Microsoft
before the License transfer. No License transfer will be valid unless Enrolled Affiliate provides
to the transferee, and the transferee accepts in writing, documents sufficient to enable the
transferee to ascertain the scope, purpose and limitations of the rights granted by Microsoft
under the licenses being transferred (includingthe applicable Use Rights, use and transfer
restrictions, warranties and limitations of liability). Any License transfer not made in compliance
with this section will be void.
c. Internal Assignment of Licenses and Software Assurance. Licenses and Software
Assurance must be assigned to a single user or device within the Enterprise. Licenses and
Software Assurance may be reassigned within the Enterprise as described in the Use Rights.
6. Term and termination.
a. Term. The term of this Agreement will remain in effect unless terminated by either party as
described below. Each Enrollment will have the term provided in that Enrollment.
b. Termination without cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement, without cause, upon
60 days ’ written notice. In the event of termination, new Enrollments will not be accepted, but
any existing Enrollment will continue for the term of such Enrollment and will continue to be
governed by this Agreement.
c. Mid-term termination for non-appropriation of Funds. Enrolled Affiliate may terminate this
Agreement or an Enrollment without liability, penalty or further obligation to make payments if
funds to make payments under the Agreement or Enrollment are not appropriated or allocated
by the Enrolled Affiliate for such purpose.
d. Termination for cause. Without limiting any other remedies it may have, either party may
terminate an Enrollment if the other party materially breaches its obligations under this
Agreement, including any obligation to submit orders or pay invoices. Except where the breach
is by its nature not curable within 30 days, the terminating party must give the other party 30
days’ notice of its intent to terminate and an opportunity to cure the breach.
If Microsoft gives such notice to an Enrolled Affiliate, Microsoft also will give Customer a copy
of that notice and Customer agrees to help resolve the breach. If the breach affects other
Enrollments and cannot be resolved between Microsoft and Enrolled Affiliate, together with
Customer’s help, within a reasonable period of time, Microsoft may terminate this Agreement
and all Enrollments under it. If an Enrolled Affiliate ceases to be Customer’s Affiliate, it must
promptly notify Microsoft, and Microsoft may terminate the former Affiliate’s Enrollment. If an
Enrolled Affiliate terminates its Enrollment as a result of a breach by Microsoft, or if Microsoft
terminates an Enrollment because Enrolled Affiliate ceases to be Customer’s Affiliate, then
Enrolled Affiliate will have the early termination rights described in the Enrollment.
Town Council Page 62 of 92 November 17, 2020
e. Early termination. If (1) an Enrolled Affiliate terminates its Enrollment as a result of a breach
by Microsoft, or (2) if Microsoft terminates an Enrollment because the Enrolled Affiliate has
ceased to be an Affiliate of Customer, or (3) Enrolled Affiliate terminates an Enrollment for non-
appropriation of funds, or (4) Microsoft terminates an Enrollment for non-payment due to non-
appropriation of funds, then the Enrolled Affiliate will have the following options:
(i) It may immediately pay the total remaining amount due, including all installments, in which
case, the Enrolled Affiliate will have perpetual rights for all Licenses it has ordered; or
(ii) It may pay only amounts due as of the termination date, in which case the Enrolled Affiliate
will have perpetual Licenses for:
1) all copies of Products (including the latest version of Products ordered under SA
coverage in the current term) for which payment has been made in full, and
2) the number of copies of Products it has ordered (including the latest version of
Products ordered under Software Assurance coverage in current term) that is
proportional to the total of installment payments paid versus total amounts due (paid
and payable) if the early termination had not occurred.
(iii) In the case of early termination under subscription Enrollments, Enrolled Affiliate will have
the following options:
1) For eligible Products, Enrolled Affiliate may obtain perpetual Licenses as described in
the section of the Enrollment titled “Buy-out option,” provided that Microsoft receives
the buy-out order for those Licenses within 60 days after Enrolled Affiliate provides
notice of termination.
2) In the event of a breach by Microsoft, if Customer chooses not to exercise a buy-out
option, Microsoft will issue Enrolled Affiliate a credit for any amount paid in advance
for Subscription Licenses that the Enterprise will not be able to use to do the
termination of the Enrollment.
Nothing in this section shall affect perpetual License rights acquired either in a separate
agreement or in a prior term of the terminated Enrollment.
f. Effect of termination or expiration. When an Enrollment expires or is terminated,
(i) Enrolled Affiliate must order Licenses for all copies of Products it has run for which it has
not previously submitted an order. Any and all unpaid payments for any order of any kind
remain due and payable. Except as provided in the subsection titled “Early termination,” all
unpaid payments for Licenses immediately become due and payable.
(ii) Enrolled Affiliate’s right to Software Assurance benefits under this Agreement ends if it
does not renew Software Assurance.
g. Modification or termination of an Online Service for regulatory reasons. Microsoft may
modify or terminate an Online Service where there is any current or future government
requirement or obligation that: (1) subjects Microsoft to any regulation or requirement not
generally applicable to businesses operating in the jurisdiction; (2) presents a hardship for
Microsoft to continue operating the Online Service without modification; and/or (3) causes
Microsoft to believe these terms or the Online Service may conflict with any such requirement
or obligation.
h. Program updates. Microsoft may make changes to this program that will make it necessary
for Customer and its Enrolled Affiliates to enter into new agreements and Enrollments at the
time of an Enrollment renewal.
Town Council Page 63 of 92 November 17, 2020
7. Use, ownership, rights, and restrictions.
a. Products. Unless otherwise specified in a supplemental agreement, use of any Product is
governed by the Use Rights specific to each Product and version and by the terms of the
applicable supplemental agreement.
b. Fixes. Each Fix is licensed under the same terms as the Product to which it applies. If a Fix is
not provided for a specific Product, any use rights Microsoft provides with the Fix will apply.
c. Non-Microsoft software and technology. Enrolled Affiliate is solely responsible for any non-
Microsoft software or technology that it installs or uses with the Products or Fixes.
d. Restrictions. Enrolled Affiliate must not (and is not licensed to) (1) reverse engineer,
decompile, or disassemble any Product or Fix; (2) install or use non-Microsoft software or
technology in any way that would subject Microsoft’s intellectual property or technology to any
other license terms; or (3) work around any technical limitations in a Product or Fix or
restrictions in Product documentation. Customer must not (and is not licensed to) (1) separate
and run parts of a Product or Fix on more than one device, upgrade or downgrade parts of a
Product or Fix at different times, or transfer parts of a Product or Fix separately; or (2) distribute,
sublicense, rent, lease, lend any Products or Fixes, in whole or in part, or use them to offer
hosting services to a third party.
e. Reservation of rights. Products and Fixes are protected by copyright and other intellectual
property rights laws and international treaties. Microsoft reserves all rights not expressly
granted in this agreement. No rights will be granted or implied by waiver or estoppel. Rights
to access or use Software on a device do not give Customer any right to implement Microsoft
patents or other Microsoft intellectual property in the device itself or in any other software or
devices.
8. Confidentiality.
“Confidential Information” is non-public information that is designated “confidential” or that a reasonable
person should understand is confidential, including Customer Data. Confidential Information does not
include information that (1) becomes publicly available without a breach of this agreement, (2) the receiving
party received lawfully from another source without a confidentiality obligation, (3) is independently
developed, or (4) is a comment or suggestion volunteered about the other party’s business, products or
services.
Each party will take reasonable steps to protect the other’s Confidential Information and will use the other
party’s Confidential Information only for purposes of the parties’ business relationship. Neither party will
disclose that Confidential Information to third parties, except to its employees, Affiliates, contractors,
advisors and consultants (“Representatives”) and then only on a need-to-know basis under nondisclosure
obligations at least as protective as this agreement. Each party remains responsible for the use of the
Confidential Information by its Representatives and, in the event of discovery of any unauthorized use or
disclosure, must promptly notify the other party.
A party may disclose the other’s Confidential Information if required by law; but only after it notifies the other
party (if legally permissible) to enable the other party to seek a protective order.
Neither party is required to restrict work assignments of its Representatives who have had access to
Confidential Information. Each party agrees that the use of information retained in Representatives’ unaided
memories in the development or deployment of the parties’ respective products or services does not create
liability under this Agreement or trade secret law, and each party agrees to limit what it discloses to the
other accordingly.
These obligations apply (1) for Customer Data until it is deleted from the Online Services, and (2) for all
other Confidential Information, for a period of five years after a party receives the Confidential Information.
Town Council Page 64 of 92 November 17, 2020
9. Privacy and compliance with laws.
a. Enrolled Affiliate consents to the processing of personal information by Microsoft and its agents
to facilitate the subject matter of this Agreement. Enrolled Affiliate will obtain all required
consents from third parties under applicable privacy and data protection law before providing
personal information to Microsoft.
b. Personal information collected under this agreement (1) may be transferred, stored and
processed in the United States or any other country in which Microsoft or its service providers
maintain facilities and (2) will be subject to the privacy terms specified in the Use Rights.
Microsoft will abide by the requirements of European Economic Area and Swiss data protection
law regarding the collection, use, transfer, retention, and other processing of personal data
from the European Economic Area and Switzerland.
c. U.S. export. Products and Fixes are subject to U.S. export jurisdiction. Enrolled Affiliate must
comply with all applicable international and national laws, including the U.S. Export
Administration Regulations and International Traffic in Arms Regulations, and end-user, end
use and destination restrictions issued by U.S. and other governments related to Microsoft
products, services and technologies.
10. Warranties.
a. Limited warranties and remedies.
(i) Software. Microsoft warrants that each version of the Software will perform substantially
as described in the applicable Product documentation for one year from the date the
Enterprise is first licensed for that version. If it does not and the Enterprise notifies
Microsoft within the warranty term, then Microsoft will, at its option (1) return the price
Enrolled Affiliate paid for the Software license, or (2) repair or replace the Software.
(ii) Online Services. Microsoft warrants that each Online Service will perform in accordance
with the applicable SLA during the Enterprise’s use. The Enterprise’s remedies for breach
of this warranty are in the SLA.
The remedies above are the Enterprise’s sole remedies for breach of the warranties in this
section. Customer waives any breach of warranty claims not made during the warranty period.
b. Exclusions. The warranties in this agreement do not apply to problems caused by accident,
abuse, or use in a manner inconsistent with this Agreement, including failure to meet minimum
system requirements. These warranties do not apply to free, trial, pre-release, or beta
products, or to components of Products that Enrolled Affiliate is permitted to redistribute.
c. Disclaimer. Except for the limited warranties above, Microsoft provides no other
warranties or conditions and disclaims any other express, implied, or statutory
warranties, including warranties of quality, title, non-infringement, merchantability, and
fitness for a particular purpose.
11. Defense of third party claims.
The parties will defend each other against the third-party claims described in this section and will pay the
amount of any resulting adverse final judgment or approved settlement, but only if the defending party is
promptly notified in writing of the claim and has the right to control the defense and any settlement of it. The
party being defended must provide the defending party with all requested assistance, information, authority,
and must take all reasonable action to mitigate its losses arising from the third-party claim. The defending
party will reimburse the other party for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses it incurs in providing assistance.
This section describes the parties’ sole remedies and entire liability for such claims.
a. By Microsoft. Microsoft will defend Enrolled Affiliate against any third-party claim to the extent
it alleges that a Product or Fix made available by Microsoft for a fee and used within the scope
Town Council Page 65 of 92 November 17, 2020
of the license granted (unmodified from the form provided by Microsoft and not combined with
anything else) misappropriates a trade secret or directly infringes a patent, copyright,
trademark or other proprietary right of a third party. If Microsoft is unable to resolve a claim of
infringement under commercially reasonable terms, it may, at its option, either (1) modify or
replace the Product or Fix with a functional equivalent; or (2) terminate Enrolled Affiliate’s
license and refund any prepaid license fees (less depreciation on a five-year, straight-line
basis) for perpetual licenses and any amount paid for Online Services for any usage period
after the termination date. Microsoft will not be liable for any claims or damages due to Enrolled
Affiliate’s continued use of a Product or Fix after being notified to stop due to a third-party claim.
b. By Enrolled Affiliate. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Enrolled Affiliate will defend
Microsoft against any third-party claim to the extent it alleges that: (1) any Customer Data or
non-Microsoft software hosted in an Online Service by Microsoft on Enrolled Affiliate's behalf
misappropriates a trade secret or directly infringes a patent, copyright, trademark, or other
proprietary right of a third party; or (2) Enrolled Affiliate’s use of any Product or Fix, alone or in
combination with anything else, violates the law or damages a third party.
12. Limitation of liability.
For each Product, each party’s maximum, aggregate liability to the other under this Agreement is limited
to direct damages finally awarded in an amount not to exceed the amounts Enrolled Affiliate paid for the
applicable Products during the term of this Agreement, subject to the following:
a. Online Services. For Online Services, Microsoft’s maximum liability to Enrolled Affiliate for
any incident giving rise to a claim will not exceed the amount Enrolled Affiliate paid for the
Online Service during the 12 months before the incident.
b. Free Products and Distributable Code. For Products provided free of charge and code
that Enrolled Affiliate is authorized to redistribute to third parties without separate payment to
Microsoft, Microsoft’s liability is limited to direct damages finally awarded up to US$5,000.
c. Exclusions. In no event will either party be liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or
consequential damages, or for loss of use, loss of business information, loss of revenue, or
interruption of business, however caused or on any theory of liability.
d. Exceptions. No limitation or exclusions will apply to liability arising out of either party’s (1)
confidentiality obligations (except for all liability related to Customer Data, which will remain
subject to the limitations and exclusions above); (2) defense obligations; or (3) violation of the
other party’s intellectual property rights.
13. Verifying compliance.
a. Right to verify compliance. Enrolled Affiliate must keep records relating to all use and
distribution of Products by Enrolled Affiliate and its Affiliates. Microsoft has the right, at its
expense, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to verify such compliance with the Product’s
license terms. Microsoft will engage an independent auditor and Enrolled Affiliate must provide
the independent auditor with any information the auditor reasonably requests in furtherance of
the verification, including visible access to systems running the Products and evidence of
Licenses for Products Enrolled Affiliate hosts, sublicenses, or distributes to third parties.
Enrolled Affiliate must provide, without undue delay, the foregoing information and access upon
request of the independent auditor
b. Verification process. Microsoft will notify Enrolled Affiliate at least 30 calendar days in
advance of its intent to verify Enrolled Affiliate’s compliance with the license terms for the
Products Enrolled Affiliate use or distribute. The independent auditor is subject to a
confidentiality obligation sufficient to cover the auditor’s engagement with Enrolled Affiliate for
the verification process. Enrolled Affiliate may, at its discretion, also require a mutually
agreeable confidentiality agreement with the independent auditor for access to premises, data
Town Council Page 66 of 92 November 17, 2020
and systems. Such confidentiality agreement between Enrolled Affiliate and auditor must be
completed within fourteen (14) days of such request, and shall not restrict the ability for the
independent auditor to accurately verify compliance and share the resulting information with
Microsoft. Any information collected will be used solely for purposes of determining Enrolled
Affiliate’s compliance. This verification will take place during normal business hours and the
auditor will make best efforts not to interfere with Enrolled Affiliate’s operations during the
course of the audit.
c. Remedies for non-compliance. If verification reveals any use of Products without applicable
license rights, then within 30 days Enrolled Affiliate must order sufficient licenses to cover its
use, and, if such use or distribution is determined to be in excess of Enrolled Affiliate’s existing
licenses by 5% or more of the audited environment(s) in aggregate, then Enrolled Affiliate must
reimburse Microsoft for the costs Microsoft incurred in obtaining the verification and acquire
the necessary additional licenses. Such licenses will be obtained at 125% of the price, based
on the then-current price list. The use percentage is based on the total number of Products
used without applicable liscense rights (as described above) compared to the total Product
use. If it is verified that Product use is sufficiently licensed, Microsoft will not require the
Enterprise to engage in another verification for at least one year. By exercising the rights and
procedures described above, Microsoft does not waive its rights to enforce its rights under
these Additional Use Rights and Restrictions or to protect its intellectual property by any other
legal or contractual means.
14. Miscellaneous.
a. Use of contractors. Microsoft may use contractors to perform services but will be responsible
for their performance subject to the terms of this Agreement.
b. Microsoft as independent contractor. The parties are independent contractors. Enrolled
Affiliate and Microsoft each may develop products independently without using the other’s
Confidential Information.
c. Notices. Notices to Microsoft must be sent to the address on the signature form. Notices must
be in writing and will be treated as delivered on the date shown on the return receipt or on the
courier or fax confirmation of delivery. Microsoft may provide information to Enrolled Affiliate
about upcoming ordering deadlines, services, and subscription information in electronic form,
including by email to contacts provided by Enrolled Affiliate. Emails will be treated as delivered
on the transmission date.
d. Agreement not exclusive. Customer is free to enter into agreements to license, use or
promote non-Microsoft products.
e. Amendments. Any amendment to this Agreement must be executed by both parties, except
that Microsoft may change the Product Terms and the Use Rights from time to time in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any conflicting terms and conditions contained
in an Enrolled Affiliate’s purchase order will not apply. Microsoft may require Customer to sign
a new agreement or an amendment before an Enrolled Affiliate enters into an Enrollment under
this agreement.
f. Assignment. Either party may assign this Agreement to an Affiliate but must notify the other
party in writing of the assignment. Any other proposed assignment must be approved by the
non-assigning party in writing. Assignment will not relieve the assigning party of its obligations
under the assigned agreement. Any attempted assignment without required approval will be
void.
g. Applicable law; dispute resolution. The terms of this Agreement will be governed by the
laws of Customer’s state, without giving effect to its conflict of laws. Disputes relating to this
Agreement will be subject to applicable dispute resolution laws of Customer’s state.
Town Council Page 67 of 92 November 17, 2020
h. Severability. If any provision in this agreement is held to be unenforceable, the balance of the
agreement will remain in full force and effect.
i. Waiver. Failure to enforce any provision of this agreement will not constitute a waiver. Any
waiver must be in writing and signed by the waiving party.
j. No third-party beneficiaries. This Agreement does not create any third-party beneficiary
rights.
k. Survival. All provisions survive termination or expiration of this Agreement except those
requiring performance only during the term of the Agreement.
l. Management and Reporting. Customer and/or Enrolled Affiliate may manage account details
(e.g., contacts, orders, Licenses, software downloads) on Microsoft’s Volume Licensing
Service Center (“VLSC”) web site (or successor site) at:
https://www.microsoft.com/licensing/servicecenter. Upon the effective date of this Agreement
and any Enrollments, the contact(s) identified for this purpose will be provided access to this
site and may authorize additional users and contacts.
m. Order of precedence. In the case of a conflict between any documents in this Agreement that
is not expressly resolved in those documents, their terms will control in the following order from
highest to lowest priority: (1) this Enterprise Agreement, (2) any Enrollment, (3) the Product
Terms, (4) the Online Services Terms, (5) orders submitted under this Agreement, and (6) any
other documents in this Agreement. Terms in an amendment control over the amended
document and any prior amendments concerning the same subject matter.
n. Free Products. It is Microsoft's intent that the terms of this Agreement and the Use Rights be
in compliance with all applicable federal law and regulations. Any free Product provided to
Enrolled Affiliate is for the sole use and benefit of the Enrolled Affiliate and is not provided for
use by or personal benefit of any specific government employee.
o. Voluntary Product Accessibility Templates. Microsoft supports the government’s obligation
to provide accessible technologies to its citizens with disabilities as required by Section 508 of
the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and its state law counterparts. The Voluntary Product
Accessibility Templates (“VPATs”) for the Microsoft technologies used in providing the Online
Services can be found at Microsoft’s VPAT page. Further information regarding Microsoft’s
commitment to accessibility can be found at http://www.microsoft.com/enable.
p. Natural disaster. In the event of a “natural disaster,” Microsoft may provide additional
assistance or rights by posting them on http://www.microsoft.com at such time.
q. Copyright violation. Except as set forth in the section above entitled “Transferring and
reassigning Licenses”, the Enrolled Affiliate agrees to pay for, and comply with the terms of this
Agreement and the Use Rights, for the Products it uses. Except to the extent Enrolled Affiliate
is licensed under this Agreement, it will be responsible for its breach of this contract and
violation of Microsoft’s copyright in the Products, including payment of License fees specified
in this Agreement for unlicensed use.
