Deployment of TransLoc OnDemand consists of the following phases:
1. Phase I
1. Notice to Proceed. Phase I begins when TransLoc receives the initial payment
associated with this Agreement (see Exhibit B).
2. Project Management. Within five (5) days of the Effective Date of the agreement,
Customer shall provide a Project Manager that TransLoc will work with through to
project completion. TransLoc will also provide a project manager who will coordinate
resources internally.
3. Definition of Service Area. Within five (5) days after the Notice to Proceed, Customer
shall provide TransLoc with the physical bounds of their intended OnDemand service
area. This information can be provided either in a series of latitude and longitudes that
correspond to the vertices of a contiguous shape, a radius (in miles or kilometers) from
a single latitude and longitude, or a list of all the roadways and intersections that form
the outer-edges of the service area.
2. Phase II: Training. Vehicle Fleet administrators will receive instructional materials and
training to use the TransLoc OnDemand service via an on-site training session(s).

EXHIBIT D: SUPPORT, MAINTENANCE, AND TRAINING
1. Support Hours and Designated Personnel
1.1. Support Hours. TransLoc will provide email and telephone support to assist Customer
personnel in using the Service and in reporting suspected deviations from the service and
the associated documentation (“Errors”). Support will be provided from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00
p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday, excluding regular business holidays. Errors
after hours can be reported within the TransLoc support ticketing system, which requires a
login, or through the TransLoc support email, which then creates an internal ticket. If the
Error is Critical, as specified in Section 4.2 of this Exhibit, Customer is to call the TransLoc
toll free number.
1.2. Designated Personnel. Support shall be provided by TransLoc to up to three (3) designated
personnel of Customer who have undergone training on use of the Service. Customer will
act as the first level of support for Users of Services offered to Customer (e.g. transit riders
and other departments in Customer’s organization) and TransLoc will provide second level
help desk support to Customer.
2. Maintenance and Upgrades
2.1. Errors. TransLoc will use reasonable efforts to correct Errors in the Service when such
Errors are reported to TransLoc, in accordance with the service levels below. TransLoc
does not warrant that all Service Errors will be corrected.
2.2. Software Upgrades. TransLoc will provide upgrades to software (“Upgrades”) that
TransLoc generally makes available to its other licensees for no additional charge.
Customer acknowledges that Upgrades include only point releases that improve or
maintain the stability of the Service and do not include major releases that add new
functionality, which may be available for an additional fee. In the case where TransLoc
provides new features to Customer at no charge, the continued availability, performance,
or usefulness of such features are not guaranteed or warranted by TransLoc and such new
features may be revoked at any time. Customer acknowledges that some newly integrated
features in future releases of the TransLoc software may require the purchase of the
appropriate hardware upon which the features depend.
2.3. Route & Map Updates. TransLoc will add the existing stops, schedules, or routes during
the initial implementation with information provided by Customer in TransLoc format via
the System Information Sheet. After the initial Implementation, to insure that updates are
implemented within the requested effective date, TransLoc request that updates be
submitted two weeks in advance of the desired effective date.
3. Network Hosting and Monitoring
3.1. Hosting and Monitoring. TransLoc, in conjunction with its hosting partners, shall provide
server hosting for the Services. Automated reports indicating the operational condition of
the system as a whole are sent to the TransLoc monitoring center at regular intervals.
DocuSign Envelope ID: E55CF50C-69B1-4410-A567-CCBB272D4F25
Technicians at the monitoring center will analyze and/or resolve issues remotely when
possible.
3.2. TransLoc use of Data. TransLoc shall have access to monitored network data in order to
assess day-to-day system performance and to assist Customer in obtaining data
intelligence, such as usage patterns, etc. Customer herby grants TransLoc the right to use
data gathered from the TransLoc network for this purpose.
4. Service Levels
4.1. Availability of Service. TransLoc will take commercially reasonable measures to maximize
the availability of the Service to Customer. From time to time, the Service will be
unavailable for system maintenance. TransLoc will attempt to give Customer prior notice
and will attempt to perform such work during off-peak times.
4.2. Classification. TransLoc support personnel will qualify and document reported Errors and
will create a response plan to address the Errors if not resolved when reported. If an
immediate response is not available for a reported issue, the expected level of service is
qualified by the criticality and complexity of the issue. The following definitions apply to
the qualification of an issue:
Critical: Error causes a majority of the Service to be down and unusable, resulting in total
disruption of work or other critical business impact – no workaround is available.
High: Error causes major feature/function failure – operations are severely restricted – a
workaround is available.
Medium: Error causes minor feature/function failure – minor impact on usage, acceptable
workaround deployed.
Low: Minor Error or requested enhancement – general information, documentation error,
software modification request.
4.3. TransLoc Responsibilities. Once TransLoc customer support receives a support request,
a customer support engineer will provide feedback to Customer that the request has been
logged and assigned to the appropriate engineer. The exact response will vary depending
on the issue and the response time will commence as soon as practicable after the support
request is received.
TransLoc will use best commercial efforts to meet the following targets for response and resolution
to reported Errors. A Response is measured from the time that an Error is reported and all
supporting detail has been provided. A Resolution is an answer, fix, or a workaround to
the support request. TransLoc will provide continuous resources to address Critical or
High Errors until resolved.

5. Miscellaneous
5.1. Back-up Responsibilities. TransLoc shall protect and backup, for a minimum of 60-days,
any software configuration settings, any Customer provided data that has been modified
for use by the software, and any new data produced by the software itself. The successful
operation of the Service is dependent on Customer’s use of proper procedures and systems
and input of correct data. Customer agrees that it shall have the sole responsibility for
protecting and backing up the source material for Customer’s route information, stop
locations, and departure schedules used in connection with the Service. Customer is solely
responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the information and data that it furnishes to
TransLoc for use with the Service.
5.2. Additional Services. TransLoc is not obligated to provide any services other than those set
forth in this Exhibit (“Additional Services”). If TransLoc performs Additional Services,

are not limited to (i) on-site service or training and related travel expenses; (ii) installation,
data conversion, system integration, development, or other consulting services; (iii) service
or maintenance of third-party software; (iv) services caused by Customer’s fault, misuse,

with any product or goods other than those licensed by Customer from TransLoc.
