ADDENDUM TO CENTRALSQUARE SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE
AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
THE CITY OF FORT W TH
AND
CENTRALSQUARE TECHNOLOGIES, LLC
This Addendum to CentralSquare's Software Support Agreement dated and signed January
31, 2007 ("Addendum") is entered into by and between CentralSquare Technologies, LLC
("Vendor") and the City of Fort Worth ("City"), collectively the "parties."
The Contract documents shall include the following:
1. The CentralSquare Support and Maintenance Agreement; and
2. This Addendum.
Notwithstanding any language to the contrary in the attached CentralSquare Support and
Maintenance Agreement (collectively referred to herein as the "Agreement"), the parties stipulate
by evidence of execution of this Addendum below by a representative of each party duly
authorized to bind the parties hereto, that the parties hereby agree that the provisions in this
Addendum below shall be applicable to the Agreement as follows:
1. Term. The Agreement shall commence upon the date signed by the Assistant City
Manager below ("Effective Date") and shall expire one year from execution ("Expiration Date"),
unless terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or otherwise
extended by the parties. This Agreement may be renewed for four (4) one-year renewal periods at
the City's option, each a "Renewal Term." The City shall provide Vendor with written notice of
its intent to renew at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of each term.
2. Termination.
a. Convenience. Either City or Vendor may terminate the Agreement at any
time and for any reason by providing the other party with 30 days written notice of
termination.
b. Breach. If either party commits a material breach of the Agreement, the non -
breaching Party must give written notice to the breaching party that describes the breach
in reasonable detail. The breaching party must cure the breach fifteen (15) calendar days
after receipt of notice from the non -breaching party, or other time frame as agreed to by
the parties. If the breaching party fails to cure the breach within the stated period of time,
the non -breaching party may, in its sole discretion, and without prejudice to any other right
under the Agreement, law, or equity, immediately terminate the Agreement by giving
written notice to the breaching party.
C. Fiscal Funding Dut. In the event no funds or insufficient funds are
appropriated by City in any fiscal period for any payments due hereunder, City will notify
Addendum Page 1 of 9
DocuSign Envelope ID: 7B301774-B171-46F6-86CD-BE3E952DD030
Vendor of such occurrence and the Agreement shall terminate on the last day of the fiscal
period for which appropriations were received without penalty or expense to the City of
any kind whatsoever, except as to the portions of the payments herein agreed upon for
which funds have been appropriated.
d. Duties and Obligations of the Parties. In the event that the Agreement is
terminated prior to the Expiration Date, City shall pay Vendor for services actually
rendered up to the effective date of termination and Vendor shall continue to provide City
with services requested by City and in accordance with the Agreement up to the effective
date of termination. Upon termination of the Agreement for any reason, Vendor shall
provide City with copies of all completed or partially completed documents prepared under
the Agreement. In the event Vendor has received access to City information or data as a
requirement to perform services hereunder, Vendor shall return all City provided data to
City in a machine readable format or other format deemed acceptable to City.
3. Attorneys' Fees, Penalties, and Liquidated Damages. To the extent the attached
Agreement requires City to pay attorneys' fees for any action contemplated or taken, or penalties
or liquidated damages in any amount, City objects to these terms and any such terms are hereby
deleted from the Agreement and shall have no force or effect.
4. Law and Venue. The Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto
shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States and state of
Texas, exclusive of conflicts of laws provisions. Venue for any suit brought under the Agreement
shall be in a court of competent jurisdiction in Tarrant County, Texas. To the extent the Agreement
is required to be governed by any state law other than Texas or venue in Tarrant County, City
objects to such terms and any such terms are hereby deleted from the Agreement and shall have
no force or effect.
5. Sovereign Immunity. Nothing herein constitutes a waiver of City's sovereign
immunity. To the extent the Agreement requires City to waive its rights or immunities as a
government entity; such provisions are hereby deleted and shall have no force or effect.
6. Limitation of Liability and Indemnity. To the extent the Agreement, in any way,
requires City to indemnify or hold Vendor or any third party harmless from damages of any kind
or character, City objects to these terms and any such terms are hereby deleted from the Agreement
and shall have no force or effect.
7. IP Indemnification. Vendor agrees to indemnify, defend, settle, or pay, at its
own cost and expense, including the payment of attorney's fees, any claim or action against
the City for infringement of any patent, copyright, trade mark, service mark, trade secret,
or other intellectual property right arising from City's use of the Deliverable(s), or any part
thereof, in accordance with the Agreement, it being understood that the agreement to
indemnify, defend, settle or pay shall not apply if City modifies or misuses the Deliverable(s)
. So long as Vendor bears the cost and expense of payment for claims or actions against the
City pursuant to this section 8, Vendor shall have the right to conduct the defense of any
such claim or action and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise and to settle or
Addendum Page 2 of 9
DocuSign Envelope ID: 7B301774-B171-46F6-86CD-BE3E952DD030
compromise any such claim; however, City shall have the right to fully participate in any
and all such settlement, negotiations, or lawsuit as necessary to protect the City's interest,
and City agrees to cooperate with Vendor in doing so. City agrees to give Vendor timely
written notice of any such claim or action, with copies of all papers City may receive relating
thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City's assumption of payment of costs or
expenses shall not eliminate Vendor's duty to indemnify the City under the Agreement. If
the Deliverable(s), or any part thereof, is held to infringe and the use thereof is enjoined or
restrained or, if as a result of a settlement or compromise, such use is materially adversely
restricted, Vendor shall, at its own expense and Vendor's sole discretion as City's sole
remedy, either: (a) procure for City the right to continue to use the Deliverable(s); or (b)
modify the Deliverable(s) to make them/it non -infringing, provided that such modification
does not materially adversely affect City's authorized use of the Deliverable(s); or (c) replace
the Deliverable(s) with equally suitable, compatible, and functionally equivalent non -
infringing Deliverable(s) at no additional charge to City; or (d) if none of the foregoing
alternatives is reasonably available to Vendor, terminate the Agreement, and refund a
prorated amount of the fees paid to account for use of Deliverables to Vendor by the City,
subsequent to which termination City may seek any and all remedies available to City under
law. VENDOR'S OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER SHALL BE SECURED BY THE
REQUISITE INSURANCE COVERAGE REQUIRED BY CITY.
8. Data Breach. Vendor further agrees that it will monitor and test its data
safeguards from time to time, and further agrees to adjust its data safeguards from time to
time in light of relevant circumstances or the results of any relevant testing or monitoring. If
Vendor suspects or becomes aware of any unauthorized access to any financial or personal
identifiable information ("Personal Data") by any unauthorized person or third party, or
becomes aware of any other security breach relating to Personal Data held or stored by
Vendor under the Agreement or in connection with the performance of any services
performed under the Agreement or any Statement(s) of Work ("Data Breach"), Vendor shall
immediately notify City in writing and shall fully cooperate with City at Vendor's expense
to prevent or stop such Data Breach. In the event of such Data Breach, Vendor shall fully
and immediately comply with applicable laws, and shall take the appropriate steps to remedy
such Data Breach. Vendor will defend, indemnify and hold City, its Affiliates, and their
respective officers, directors, employees and agents, harmless from and against any and all
claims, suits, causes of action, liability, loss, costs and damages, including reasonable
attorney fees, arising out of or relating to any third party claim arising from breach by
Vendor of its obligations contained in this Section, except to the extent resulting from the
acts or omissions of City. All Personal Data to which Vendor has access under the
Agreement, as between Vendor and City, will remain the property of City. City hereby
consents to the use, processing and/or disclosure of Personal Data only for the purposes
described herein and to the extent such use or processing is necessary for Vendor to carry
out its duties and responsibilities under the Agreement, any applicable Statement(s) of Work,
or as required by law. Vendor will not transfer Personal Data to third parties other than
through its underlying network provider to perform its obligations under the Agreement,
unless authorized in writing by City. Vendor's obligation to defend, hold harmless and
indemnify City shall remain in full effect if the Data Breach is the result of the actions of a
third party. All Personal Data delivered to Vendor shall be stored in the United States or
Addendum Page 3 of 9
DocuSign Envelope ID: 7B301774-B171-46F6-86CD-BE3E952DD030
other jurisdictions approved by City in writing and shall not be transferred to any other
countries or jurisdictions without the prior written consent of City.
9. No Mandatory Arbitration. To the extent the Agreement requires mandatory
arbitration to resolve conflicts, City objects to these terms and any such terms are hereby deleted
from the Agreement and shall have no force or effect.
10. No Debt. In compliance with Article I I § 5 of the Texas Constitution, it is
understood and agreed that all obligations of City hereunder are subject to the availability of funds.
If such funds are not appropriated or become unavailable, City shall have the right to terminate the
Agreement except for those portions of funds which have been appropriated prior to termination.
11. Public Information. City is a government entity under the laws of the State of Texas
and all documents held or maintained by City are subject to disclosure under the Texas Public
Information Act. To the extent the Agreement requires that City maintain records in violation of
the Act, City hereby objects to such provisions and such provisions are hereby deleted from the
Agreement and shall have no force or effect. In the event there is a request for information marked
Confidential or Proprietary, City shall promptly notify Vendor. It will be the responsibility of
Vendor to submit reasons objecting to disclosure. A determination on whether such reasons are
sufficient will not be decided by City, but by the Office of the Attorney General of the State of
Texas or by a court of competent jurisdiction.

CENTRALSQUARE
Exhibit A
CentralSquare Access Management Policy
In order to provide secure, CJIS compliant connections to agency systems CentralSquare
Technologies ("CentralSquare") requires BeyondTrust or SecureLink as the only approved methodology
of connection. BeyondTrust and Securelink provide the necessary remote access in order to service and
maintain CentralSquare products while adhering to the FBI CJIS requirements. Both solutions utilize two -
factor authentication Federal Information Processing Standard Publication ("FIPS") 140-2 validated
cryptographic modules and AES encryption in 256-bit strengths.
BeyondTrust and Securelink meet the security requirements required for Remote Access under the
FBI CJIS Security Policy.
BeyondTrust and Securelink are addressed in turn via this Access Management Policy; Customers
may choose which remote privileged access management solution will be utilized by CentralSquare.
BeyondTrust
The BeyondTrust remote support solution may be utilized via escorted session or a jump client. As
for an escorted session, when an agency needs assistance from CentralSquare, the agency employee
requesting assistance will receive verbal or email communication with a session key necessary to enable
remote access. If a verbal key is provided, the user enters the session key after visiting
hlt2s://securesMport.centralsquare.com.
Jump clients are a Windows service that can be stopped/started to facilitate a support session.
Connections made via jump client can be active or passive. An active jump client is always available. A
passive connection is enabled for a specific purpose and then disabled when not used. Regardless of the
option selected, CentralSquare's support team will arrange a BeyondTrust session to establish the jump
client.
The jump client resides on the agency side on the installed device, where an agency administrator
can manage. Instructions on how to enable/disable jump clients can be provided upon request. A sample
workflow of a passive jump client is provided below:
Should an agency require support from CentralSquare, a call would be
placed and/or a support ticket opened in the portal on the CentralSquare
customer support website. Before accessing the agency's system and/or
environment, the CentralSquare representative would send a notice of
connection from the CentralSquare support portal instance. This notice
can be sent to the individual at the agency that the CentralSquare
representative is working with or other designated contacts as necessary.
Upon receipt of the notice of connection, the agency personnel would
enable the BeyondTrust jump client. The CentralSquare representative
DocuSign Envelope ID: 7B301774-B171-46F6-86CD-BE3E952DD030
OF.; CENTRALSQUARE
would then be admitted to the agency's system and/or environment to
perform the necessary task. Upon completion of the task, the
CentralSquare representative sends a notice of disconnection from the
CentralSquare support portal instance. Upon receipt of the notice of
disconnection, the agency personnel would then disable the
BeyondTrust jump client.
Securelink
Similar to BeyondTrust's escorted session, Securelink may be utilized via "quick connect". To
enable a quick connect sessionwhen an agency needs assistance from CentralSquare, the Agency
employee requesting assistance will enter a key code in order to connect for screen sharing on a device.
Similar to the jump client methodology, SecureLink may also be utilized via "gatekeeper". The
sample workflow description for a jump client provided above is substantially similar to the workflow
for gatekeeper.
Summation
BeyondTrust and Securelink allow customers the ability to monitor connectivity to the
customer's network and maintain CJIS compliance while enabling CentralSquare to perform the
necessary support functions.
For any additional information, please do not hesitate to reach out to CentralSquare.
