Sole Source Purchase Vendor Agreement Page 6 of 35
Firehouse Innovations LI, Inc
18.1 The SELLER warrants that all Deliverables, or any part thereof, furnished
hereunder, including but not limited to: programs, documentation, software,
analyses, applications, methods, ways, and processes (in this Section each
individually referred to as a "Deliverable" and collectively as the
"Deliverables,") do not infringe upon or violate any patent, copyrights,
trademarks, service marks, trade secrets, or any intellectual property rights
or other third party proprietary rights, in the performance of services under
this Agreement.
18.2 SELLER shall be liable and responsible for any and all claims made against
the City for infringement of any patent, copyright, trademark, service mark,
trade secret, or other intellectual property rights by the use of or supplying
of any Deliverable(s) in the course of performance or completion of, or in any
way connected with providing the services, or the City's continued use of the
Deliverable(s) hereunder.
18.3 SELLER 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 this Agreement, it
being understood that this agreement to indemnify, defend, settle or pay shall

the defense of any such claim or action and all negotiations for its settlement
or compromise and to settle or 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 SELLER in doing so. In the event City, for
whatever reason, assumes the responsibility for payment of costs and
expenses for any claim or action brought against the City for infringement
arising under this Agreement, the City shall have the sole right to conduct
the defense of any such claim or action and all negotiations for its settlement
or compromise and to settle or compromise any such claim; however,
SELLER shall fully participate and cooperate with the City in defense of
such claim or action. City agrees to give SELLER 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 SELLER's duty to indemnify the City
under this Agreement. If the Deliverable(s), or any part thereof, is held to
Sole Source Purchase Vendor Agreement Page 7 of 35

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,
SELLER shall, at its own expense and 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 SELLER, terminate this Agreement,
and refund all amounts paid to SELLER by the City, subsequent to which
termination City may seek any and all remedies available to City under law.

Product, without the necessity of any further consideration, and Buyer shall be entitled to

ABOUT THE DOOR:
This patented (Patent Nos.: US 8,408,917 82 and 8,926,332 02) door system is by far the most
realistic and versatile forcible -entry training device on the market today. You can train your
Iuembers using every technique, which applies to inward-Dpening doors, outward -opening
doors, left-hand and right-hand swinging door, with metal or wood jambs, using halligau and
flat head axe or maul. Hydra Rem and rabbit tool can also be used -
This forcible -entry simulator will train firefighters for these types of doors encountered in day-
to-day firefighting -
Inward -Opening Mori with Metal Jambs:
` lese are doors you would most likely encounter in an apartment building or similar
situation (Angle Irm which covers the locking area on some apartment doors in high crime
areas can also be attached to this door if desired).
Outward -Opening Doors with Mehl Jambs:
Thegc are doors you would most Iikely encounter on a commercial building's exterior
entrance or exit- Also bulkhead doors on the roof of tenernents and apaariment buildings, also
open oumatrd.
Inward -Opening Doors with Wooden Jambs:
These doors are mainly encountered in private dwellings. For most of the country these
are the most prevalent doors.
Two -Door Feature:
Another very imuortant feature of the Multi -Force door is that we have two swinging
doors- This feature allows firefighters to force doors that swing to the left as well as doors that
swing to the right, As we all know, the gapping techniques as well as the spiking techniques or
(baseball sv ing as some call it), are completely different for left-hand swinging doors as
opposed to right-hand swinging doors. Having both left and right-hand swinging doors gives
the firefighter tremendous advantage in being able to practice the different ways that the
gapping technique and sp*jng techniques are applied depending on the swing of the door.
Firehouse Innovations LI, Inc
Example:.
If you had a prop with only one door and you wanted to practice the spiking method
(also known as the baseball swing method), You would only be able to sewing the spike of the
halligan loaf into the wood jamb simulator from one particular side! That would be great if
every inward -opening doer with a wooden jamb that we encounter in the real world, at a real
fire, opened the same way you practiced. But guess what, 50% of the time the door swings
from the opposite side. You need to practice your left-handed swim as well as your right-
handed swing. Let's face it, we all have a weaker swing from one side as opposed to the other.
Thi-5 two -door feature allows you to improve your swing greatly from your weaker side, as
weIl as make your strong side swing evert stranger.
Remember also that the gapping method used on an inward -opening metal jamb door is
also different for left and right-hand swinging doors_
The importance of having two doors on a forcible -entry prop to Simulate these scenarios
that you will enco=ter, cannot be overstated.
Although the Multi -Force door fully assembled weighs in at apprioximatOy 760 pounds,
it can be easily disassembled in less than fine minutes into six parts (base plate, two side jambs,
top header, and two doors)_ These six parts can easily fit into a pick-up truck or van_ This
:Hakes transporting the prop between fire stations simple and easy.
To m4)rove the forcible -entry efficiency of your department and the firefighters under
your command, you need to practice the many forcible -entry techniques that can be performed
on the Multi -Faroe door, and perform them often.
The quicker the door gets fordo, the quicker water gets to the fire. All firefighters know
that when there is a quick entry, which leads to water beiug applied to the fire quicker, more
lives and property are saved. Give your firefighters and the civilians they protect better odds
with better training_ Traizr with the best prop made for forcible -entry training.
Train with the Multi -Farce forcible -entry door system.
