Following further questions from the board, Chairman head moved on to the next item. 5. Update on the current Finance Plan. Mr. Vine presented the Board with a list of currently active permits within TIRZ Sub -Zone 2 (Downtown), showing a total valuation of $6,724,327.00. He explained that this figure is based on the valuation of all active permits. Mr. Vine also noted that a few larger projects are underway but have not yet entered the permitting phase, so the total valuation is expected to increase in the future. Ms. Hammond said that she understood staff would be providing projections for all sub -zones for the entire 30 years. Chairman Head responded that using permit valuations is currently the most accurate method for projecting totals until the projects are completed. Following further discussion regarding a more effective approach to developing the projections and their associated timeframe, Chairman Head proceeded to the next agenda item. (Note: some discussion is hard to hear on the recording due to board members being too far away from their Page I of 3 microphone.) 6. Review and discuss the 1st Street Renovation Project, including consideration of allocating TIRZ funds to support the project. Rob Vine introduced consultant Vance Lyles with MTG Engineers & Surveyors to provide an overview of the status of the project. Mr. Lyles explained that this is a 2023 CDBG-funded project through the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA). The goal is to transform 1 st Street into a more pedestrian - friendly "plaza." He noted that the addition of eight bump -outs, utility connections for water and power to support events, and general construction cost increases have raised the overall project cost by approximately $300,000.00. Mr. Lyles also reported unexpected utility issues and the discovery of a basement beneath the street, both of which contributed to additional cost increases. The original grant amount is $500,000.00, with a required match of $129,318.00 provided by the City. The total cost may increase further depending on the inclusion of alternate items such as landscape beds, irrigation systems, electrical outlets for food trucks, and glass pavers. Mr. Lyles stated that plans for the environmental review have been completed, and once clearance is received, the project will be ready to go out for bid— potentially by mid-to-late June. The TDA contract date is set for the end of the year. Ms. Hammond said that this was a great project and would significantly enhance the area. She inquired whether there were any plans to place the utilities underground. Mr. Lyles responded that there are currently no such plans, as the quote for relocating the overhead electric lines underground was extremely high. Mr. Vine added that the cost was prohibitively expensive but noted that further discussion with Oncor could still take place. He stated that he would coordinate with City Engineer Todd Mittge to obtain a more accurate estimate for the underground utility work. Mr. Hayter expressed that he was under the impression the street would be permanently closed to traffic and sought clarification regarding the inclusion of removable bollards. Mr. Vine confirmed that the street would be permanently closed to through traffic; however, the bollards would be removable to allow food trucks to enter, park during events, and then be reinstalled. He emphasized that the street would remain closed to general traffic at all times to maintain safety and minimize confusion. Guest attendee Chad Lindsey, representing 1st Street Media, spoke in support of the project. He acknowledged the high cost of relocating utility lines underground but stated that 1 st Street Media would support the project in any way possible. He also suggested that stamped brick might offer a more cost- effective and easier -to -maintain alternative to traditional paved brick. Ms. Hammond expressed surprise that the funding request was being presented to the board at this stage of the process. She remarked that, given the ongoing planning efforts, submitting piecemeal funding requests before the planning is complete undermines both the process and the broader vision. Chairman Head stated that what he found most encouraging about the project was the collaboration it demonstrated between the Chamber, the City, and potentially the TIRZ Board. While the project may not fully align with the current planning efforts, he expressed his support for the City moving forward with initiatives like this. Ms. Hammond added that if this request were approved, she believed no additional project requests should be brought forward until the planning process has been completed. Mr. Vine explained that the reason the funding request was being presented to the board at this time was due to the City receiving $400,000.00 as part of a disannexation agreement with a solar farm, in lieu of taxes. He stated that the City of Paris had partnered with the Chamber of Commerce and reached an agreement for each entity to contribute $100,000.00 from Hotel Occupancy Tax (HOT) funds to help cover the project's funding shortfall. This would still leave a remaining gap of $100,000.00 in project Page 2 of 3 funding. Mr. Vine noted that discussions were ongoing at the City Council level regarding how to allocate the disannexation funds, but mentioned that the TIRZ could be considered as a potential backup funding source if needed. Following further discussion Chairman Head moved onto the next item. 7. Request future agenda items. Future agenda items will include: an update on the estimated cost to relocate the overhead utility lines on 1st Street underground; a current account balance for the TIRZ fund, including projected revenue; an update on the Project Plan, including associated timelines; and the consideration of tax abatements for the 5 -in -5 Housing Infill Program. Ms. Hammond also proposed holding a community workshop as a future item for discussion. 8. Adjournment. There being no further business, a Motion to adjourn was made by Ms. Norwood and seconded by Mr. McMonagle. Motion carried, 6 ayes — 0 nays. Chairman Head adjourned the,,¢rting at 5:19 P.M.

Proposed revenue included $1.9 million in sales tax and $75,000 in interest income. He reported a total estimated income of $1,975,000. Mr. Coleman continued by reporting on expenses. Most budget expenses remained the same or had slight increases or decreases. Total proposed budget expenses for 2025-2026 were reported at $1,836,507.00 in comparison to last year's budgeted amount of $3,365,095.00. Mr. Coleman noted that the decrease was primarily due to an adjustment to incentive obligations for Project Blue Fire. Mr. Coleman opened the floor to questions regarding the 2025-2026 Draft Budgets. There were no questions. Review, and Potential Action on Land and Buildings Ms. Hammond briefly outlined the opportunities involving the PEDC's land inventory, noting that site readiness of newly acquired land continues to be a priority. She reported that requests for information from potential prospects continue to include a desire for existing buildings, ranging in size from 50,000 to 500,000 square feet. Mr. Bray opened the floor to questions regarding land and buildings. There were no questions. PEDC Board Member Roundtable and Discussion Chairman Bray opened discussions by noting that with the PEDC's proposed adjusted budget for 2025- 2026, the board would need to consider its priorities moving into the next fiscal year. Mr. Fendley commented that a priority should be the procurement of additional land, as well as the consideration of constructing a speculative building for future prospects. Mr. Homer commented that the rising costs of land could impact the PEDC's options for procurement, and that the organization should consider any opportunity to acquire property at lower costs. Mr. Bray asked the board if there was a preference between shovel -ready land and the construction of a spec building. Ms. Hammond suggested the option of having a virtual spec building designed, which could be submitted alongside proposals. Dr. Hashmi commented on the benefits of both land procurement and the construction of a spec building. He suggested that with the increasing costs to land, the acquisition of property should take priority moving forward. Mr. Bray suggested that the PEDC research the construction of a 25,000 to 50,000 square foot spec building to consider its costs and benefits.

He noted that in previous discussions with the City, City staff have mentioned the possibility of selling the Depot building where the PEDC is currently headquartered. Mr. Roddy suggested the consideration of a joint office with the Small Business Development Center. Discussion ensued regarding collocating resources with the PEDC to support small business and entrepreneurial development. Chairman Bray suggested the formation of a committee to discuss these options further following the appointment of a new board member. Dr. Hashmi continued with a point of discussion regarding the PEDC's status as a Type A Economic Development Corporation, which primarily focuses on industrial development and infrastructure, and the consideration of additionally implementing a Type B EDC, which would have a focus on quality of life improvements for Paris and Lamar County. Mr. Bray commented that he was unsure if the addition of Type B status would require a separate Board of Directors. Ms. Hammond clarified, stating that the PEDC could function with Type A and Type B status and funding would be allocated for each division independently. Mr. Bray suggested the scheduling of a joint meeting with City Council to discuss the benefits of implementing a Type B EDC and options on the allocation of sales tax funding. Mr. Terrell recommended that the PEDC remain targeting trailer manufacturing and food manufacturing due to the existing strength and supply chains of these industries. He suggested attracting the suppliers of these industries as potential targets. A discussion ensued regarding direct marketing approaches. Mr. Bray opened the floor to additional comments regarding the future direction of the PEDC. Mr. Roddy emphasized the importance of targeting trailer manufacturing as a viable growth opportunity for Paris. Mr. Fendley suggested that the PEDC consider alternative sources for funding. Ms. Hammond noted the limitations of secondary funding sources and provided the example of entering into interlocal agreements as a potential source for future funding. Mr. Homer echoed Mr. Fendley's sentiment, suggesting that the board pursue establishing a Type B EDC as an additional source of funding. He further noted that continuing to maintain open conversation with the City of Paris could yield future opportunities through the reallocation of finances. Ms. Hammond emphasized the success of the PEDC during the past five years, noting the collaboration between the PEDC, City Council, Lamar County, and Chamber of Commerce to be paramount in this success. Mr. Homer continued by referencing Mr. Terrell's point on targeted attraction, noting that the PEDC should focus its efforts on marketing to industries that manufacture in the United States. He continued by commenting on past discussions involving land, noting the need for land procurement to be a priority. Mr. Bray closed roundtable discussions by expressing his appreciation of the board's willingness to continue conversation and commended Ms. Hammond on her continued support of economic development during the last five years. Discuss Future Agenda Items Chairman Bray opened the floor to discuss future agenda items. No items were brought forward for discussion. Page 4 of 5 Chairman Bray declared the meeting adjourned.

MTG. DATE: July 28, 2025 BACKGROUND: The property owner Mehvan Besfki is requesting a zoning change from a General Retail District (GR) to a Commercial District (C) located at 1900 Clarksville Street. The lot is approximately 19,406.62 SF tract located in the Speedy Stop No. 8 Addition, Block A, Lot 1, LCAD 17919. There is currently an existing un -operational dilapidated gas station on the lot that will be demolished to make way for the new construction of the proposed Mechanic/Automative Tire Shop. The gas station is closed and has not been in operation for about ten years now. The proposed plan is to demolish all structures and construct a new Mechanic/Automative Tire Shop. The current future land use map is guided by Retail (R); therefore, this rezoning action will be in accordance with the city's comprehensive plan. ANALYSIS • The land use to the North is mostly single family residential, zoned Commercial District (C) and further to the northeast is Two Family Dwelling District (2F) and Future Land Uses are all guided for Retail)—(R). • The land use in the South is residential and zoned General Retail District (R) and Commercial District (C) with Future Land Use guided for Low Density Residential -LDR). • The land use to the East is Paris Independent School District zoned as Public Lands and Institutions District—(PLI) and the Future Land Use map is guided by Retail (R) fronting Clarksville Street. • The land use to the West is a boarded up vacant retail building, zoned General Retail District (GR) with Future Land Use also guided for Retail —(R). STATUS OF ISSUE: The application for the zoning change is because the proposed use which is to provide Mechanic/Automative Tire Shop is not permitted under the current zoning district that is General Retail District (GR). Changing the zoning from General Retail (GR) District to Commercial District (C) will allow the proposed use to be permitted and appropriate for Mechanic/Automative Tire Shop according to the Zoning Ordinance - Use of Land and Buildings Sub Section 8-105, Automobile Type Services Table. Whereas the adjoining property to the west is zoned General Retail District (GR) and across the street to the east is zoned Public Lands and Institutions District- (PLI) to the said property, inadvertently, the southwest property zoned Commercial District (C) adjoins behind the said property. This condition allows for the zoning change and is compatible with the existing surroundings. All improvements and construction shall conform to the standards required by the City of Paris. The Planning Department has received one input from Phalia Blassingame, 1955 Clarksville Street with concerns that Commercial zoning would allow for a smoke/vape shop in which she is opposed to that use type. The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended approval of the zoning change at its July 7, 2025, meeting. Motion carried, 4 ayes — 2 nays. OPTIONS: 1, Approve Planning & Zoning Commission's recommendation. 2. Deny the application. RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval of the zoning change from General Retail District (GR) to a Commercial District (C). A COMMERCIAL DISTRICT (C); PROVIDING A REPEALER CLAUSE, A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE, A SAVINGS CLAUSE, A PENALTY1 PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. WHEREAS, the Planning and Zoning Commission received a request for an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Paris to change the zoning in the Speedy Stop No. 8 Addition, Block A, Lot 1, LCAD 17919, located at 1900 Clarksville Street from a General Retail District (GR) to a Commercial District (C); and WHEREAS, on July 7, 2025, following notice and publication as required by law, the Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed amendment to the City Zoning Ordinance and, following said hearing, made formal recommendation to the City Council to approve the requested zoning; and, WHEREAS, on July 28, 2025, following notice and publication as required by law, the City Council of the City of Paris conducted a public hearing on the proposed amendment to the City Zoning Ordinance, and having considered the recommendations of the Planning and Zoning Commission and the testimony and evidence introduced at said public hearing, found and determined that approving the aforesaid zoning change would be consistent with the Comprehensive Future Land Use Plan of the City of Paris, consistent with the City Zoning Ordinance, and would be in the best interests of the public health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of the City of Paris by a vote of ayes and nays. NOW, THEREFORE,IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PARIS, TEXAS: Section 1. That the findings set out in the preamble to this ordinance are hereby in all things approved and are incorporated herein for all purposes. Section 2. That the Official Zoning Map of the City of Paris, Texas and Zoning Ordinance No. 1710, in the Speedy Stop No. 8 Addition, Block A, Lot 1, LCAD 17919, located at 1900 Clarksville Street be changed from a General Retail District (GR) to a Commercial District (C). Section 3. That the Chief Building Official of the City of Paris be, and he is hereby, directed to change the Official Zoning Map of the City of Paris, Texas to reflect the changes set forth in this ordinance. Section 4. That all provisions of the ordinances of the City of Paris, Texas in conflict with the provisions of this ordinance are hereby repealed, and all other provisions of the ordinances of the City of Paris not in conflict with the provisions of this ordinance shall remain in full force and effect. Section 5. That the repeal of any ordinance or part of ordinances affected by the enactment of this ordinance shall not be construed as abandoning any action now pending under or by virtue of such ordinance or as discontinuing, abating, modifying, or altering any penalty accruing or to accrue, or as affecting any rights of the municipality under any section or provisions of any ordinance at the time of passage of this ordinance. Section 6. That it is the intention of the City Council of the City of Paris that this ordinance and every provision hereof, shall be considered severable, and the invalidity or partial invalidity of any section, clause, or provisions of this ordinance shall not affect the validity of any other portion of this ordinance. Section 7. That any person violating any provision of this ordinance shall be guilty of a Misdemeanor, and upon conviction, shall be subject to a fine in accordance with provisions of Sec. 1.01.009 of the City of Paris Code of Ordinances, and each and every day's continuance of any violation of the above -enumerated sections shall constitute and be deemed a separate offense. Section 8. This ordinance shall become effective from and after its passage and publication as required by law. PASSED AND ADOPTED on this 28th day of July 2025, by the City Council of the City of Paris, in regular session, following notice and publication as required by law. Mihir Pankaj, Mayor ATTEST: Janice Ellis, City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM: Stephanie H. Harris, City Attorney Item No. 17 Memorandum TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro -Tem & City Council Rose Beverly, City Manager FROM: Jon McFadden, Public Information Officer SUBJECT: Presentation by Texas Film Commission of Film Friendly Texas Community and Digital Media Friendly Texas Community certificates DATE: July 17, 2025 BACKGROUND: The City of Paris achieved Film Friendly Texas certification in April 2025 and recently completed the Digital Media Friendly certification process, the fourth city in the state to do so. DMFTX background: The Digital Media Friendly Texas (DMFTX) Certified Community program provides an elevated platform for statewide certified communities to connect with Digital Media companies and professionals. By completing and maintaining DMFTX certification, communities send a clear message to animation, visual effects, video game, and extended reality (virtual reality, augmented reality, and mixed reality) stakeholders that they are prepared and eager partners in attracting their business. FFTX background: Film Friendly Texas Certified Communities receive ongoing training and guidance from the Texas Film Commission regarding media industry standards, best practices and how to effectively accommodate media production in their communities. The Film Friendly Texas program serves as an invaluable resource that helps position Texas as a premier destination for media production. STATUS OF ISSUE: This will be the first time the Texas Film Commission has presented certificates for both of these programs at the same time. BUDGET: NA RECOMMENDATION: Receive the presentation. Item No. 19 memorandum TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro -Tem and City Council Rose Beverly, City Manager FROM: Stephanie H. Harris, City Attorney SUBJECT: HIRING OF PROSECUTOR FOR MUNICIPAL COURT DATE: July 28, 2025 BACKGROUND: On June 28, 2016, Council authorized me to hire a contract prosecutor in lieu of filling the position of Assistant City Attorney that I vacated when Council appointed me to the position of Interim City Attorney in January of, 2016. My current prosecutor, Basel Musharbash, is leaving after almost three years. I have reached an agreement with local attorney Joseph Nelms, resume attached, to undertake these limited prosecutorial duties effective upon approval by the council. Mr. Nelms served as a longtime police officer in the Paris Police Department, rising to the position of Patrol Captain before leaving several years ago to attend law school at the University of Tulsa. He is a Paris resident and has a solo practice here. News of his looming appointment has been well-received both by the Department and by Court staff. I worked with Mr. Nelms for years while he was a police officer, and we work together very well. STATUS OF ISSUE: Section 28 of the City Charter allows the city attorney to appoint an assistant city attorney, if deemed necessary, subject to the approval of the City Council. While I do not believe that a contract prosecutor is an "assistant city attorney" within the meaning of this Charter provision, in an abundance of caution I am presenting this hire for Council approval. BUDGET: This proposed hire is budget neutral. Funds have already been budgeted for a contract prosecutor through the end of this fiscal year, and, pending Council's final approval, for fiscal year 2025-2026. A rate of $100.00/hour falls within these budgeted amounts, is the same rate paid to Mr. Musharbash since 2022, and is well below the local hourly rate for legal services. Remember as well the substantial savings in hiring a contract prosecutor over having a full-time Assistant City Attorney. RECOMMENDATION: Approve hiring by city attorney of contract municipal court prosecutor. Item No. 20 Memorandum TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem & City Council FROM: Rose Beverly, City Manager Todd Mittge, City Engineer Stephanie Harris, City Attorney SUBJECT: 7th Street SW Reconstruction Project Award Recommendation DATE: July 28, 2025 BACKGROUND: The City of Paris has partnered with Fikes Wholesale, Inc. (Owner of CEFCO) to rebuild 7th Street SW into a concrete roadway. Due to the heavy truck traffic, the asphalt roadway will not support the heavy loads. Fikes Wholesale has agreed to split the cost 50150 with the City to get this project done. The partnership splits construction, geotechnical testing ($5895), and 3rd party materials testing during construction (Estimated to be $5000). City of Paris called for bids for the 7th SW Reconstruction Project (ST2502) in the Paris News on May 6 and May 13, 2025. Bids were opened on June 2, 2025. Three responsive bids were received for the project. Pridemore Construction, LLC from Paris, TX. was the Low Bidder and was recommended to the council for award of the project. After the Notice of Award was sent out, during the contract compilation process, it was determined they were unable to provide the Performance and Payment Bonds as required by the Contract. They decided to withdraw their bid, and city staff decided to rebid the project to all bidders for 2 weeks. City of Paris called for bids for the revised 7th SW Reconstruction Project (ST2502B) in the Paris News on June 26 and July 3, 2025. Bids were opened on July 10, 2025 at 11:30AM. Three responsive bids were received for the project. Wheeler Construction from Paris, TX. was the Low Bidder, 2" d was Drake General Contractors, LLC from Paris, and 3rd was Richard Drake Construction from Paris. Low bid was $326,338.10. It is the City Engineer's recommendation to award the project to Wheeler Construction of Paris, TX. STATUS OF ISSUE: Bid Analysis is attached for detailed information about the bid. Wheeler Construction - $326,338.10 Drake Companies, LLC - $326,605.51 Richard Drake Construction - $355,809.10 The project is located on 7th Street SW from Loop 286 south to the CEFCO second entrance. This will be a full depth concrete replacement project and is a 50/50 share with CEFCO South. The share of each partner is anticipated to be $168,616.55 for the project. Fikes Wholesale has agreed to pay 50%, which will vary a small amount based on final project payments (which aren't always exactly the same as bid amount, since payments are normally based on unit bid items which could increase or decrease by minor amounts during construction), and final 3`d party inspection/testing services during construction. Project Timeline: Assuming approval by the council, the Contracts will be entered into with Wheeler Construction in the next week, and construction will start in Early August. Construction will take 35 calendar days, so that the work is completed by mid to late September. The FY24/25 Budget has $2.5 million set aside for the Mill & Overlay project and this project. The city's share will come from this account. This is remaining funding from the 2017 and 2018 GO Bonds. Design was performed by City Engineering Staff using existing salaries. OPTIONS 1. Grant approval for the City Manager to enter into a contract with Wheeler Construction for the reconstruction of 7th Street SW into a concrete roadway. 2. Deny approval for the City Manager to enter into a contract with Wheeler Construction for the reconstruction of 7th Street SW into a concrete roadway. 3. Reject all bids and request re -advertisement of project. 4. Request additional information regarding this issue and bring forth to a future meeting of the city council. RECOMMENDATION: 1. Grant approval for the City Manager to enter into a contract with Wheeler Construction for the reconstruction of 7"' Street SW into a concrete roadway.

Considering the high volume of current projects and the need for the Planning & Community Development Department to maintain regular engagement with staff, Council, and the community, I am recommending the creation of a Community Development Analyst position. This role would be established in place of filling the previously budgeted Community Development Coordinator position. STATUS OF ISSUE: There is a need for the analyst position to assist the IT Department to train employees due to the proposed new 311 Platform software program for the department and others. It is also obvious that there have been challenges to the training and use of the current MyGov(5) software. Moreover, the department does not have enough staff to implement the recommendations of the recently adopted City of Paris Housing Study, including the upcoming City of Paris Comprehensive Plan Update. The General Summary of Duties: The Community Development Analyst supports the Planning Division by coordinating training, analyzing departmental needs, and assisting with long-range housing and development initiatives. The role also serves as a liaison between city departments, technical teams, and the public to ensure effective communication and program implementation. Within the department, the analyst would report directly to the Director of Planning & Community Development and would also provide support for IT functions, including but not limited to: • Support the Planning & Community Development Department as a training and development analyst, assisting in the gathering and documentation of technical and functional requirements from various city departments. Participate in planning and developing specialized training, staff development and occasionally customized and technology-based training. Attend meetings with key users to understand operational needs and propose viable technology solutions. • Help bridge communication between technical teams and user departments to ensure project alignment with organizational goals. • RECOMMENDATION: Approve the addition of the analyst position within the Planning & Community Development office. BUDGET: The Community Development Coordinator position was funded in the current fiscal year but has not and will not be filled. These allocated funds can be repurposed to recruit and support the salary and benefits of the proposed analyst role, resulting in marginal financial impact on the current budget. Staff recommends adding the position to the current pay scale grade 195.

As part of this transition, the City successfully integrated its operations into the OpenGov platform. However, at the time of integration, OpenGov did not yet have a payroll module available. The City was informed that we would be permitted to continue using the legacy STW system for payroll through the end of 2026. In the meantime, we would need to identify and implement a separate payroll system that could integrate with OpenGov. The Finance Department undertook extensive research to evaluate options that would best serve the needs of Paris. By the time I joined the City, the team had narrowed the field to two potential paths: 1. Participating as a pilot user for OpenGov's new, in -development payroll module, or 2. Selecting a proven, well-established payroll and HR system with robust features that could enhance City operations. After careful consideration, we determined that joining the OpenGov pilot project would present too great a risk. Implementing an untested system, especially one as complex as payroll would place a significant burden on staff and could lead to operational disruptions. Last month, we made the decision to proceed with UKG, a trusted provider with a strong track record and valuable Human Resources features. This direction will allow us to implement a reliable, fully supported solution without placing undue strain on City personnel. STATUS OF ISSUE: We have negotiated a contract and finalized pricing for the suite of services we intend to implement with UKG. The agreement includes a comprehensive range of features to support our City's needs, including: • Electronic timekeeping • Accruals management • Employee scheduling • Benefits administration • Online recruiting and application tracking • Payroll processing • System implementation and launch support In addition to these core components, UKG also offers optional enhancements such as onboarding tools and other features that may prove valuable as our operations evolve. This solution represents a significant step forward in modernizing and streamlining the City's payroll and human resources functions, and we are confident it will serve our staff and community well. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends for Council to approve the contract with UKG for Payroll and Human Resources services.

Successful Respondent specifically agrees that the Work Product shall be considered "works made for hire" and that the Work Product shall, upon creation, be owned exclusively by Customer. To the extent that the Work Product, under applicable law, may not be considered works made for hire, Successful Respondent hereby agrees that the Contract effectively transfers, grants, conveys, assigns, and relinquishes exclusively to Customer all right, title, and interest in and to all ownership rights in the Work Product, and all Intellectual Property Rights in the Work Product, without the necessity of any further consideration, and Customer shall be entitled to obtain and hold in its own name all Intellectual Property Rights in and to the Work Product. Successful Respondent acknowledges that Successful Respondent and Customer do not intend Successful Respondent to be a joint author of the Work Product within the meaning of the Copyright Act of 1976. Customer shall have access, during normal business hours (Monday through Friday, 8AM to 5PM) and upon reasonable prior notice to Successful Respondent, to all Successful Respondent materials, premises, and computer files containing the Work Product. Successful Respondent and Customer, as appropriate, will cooperate with one another and execute such other documents as may be reasonably appropriate to achieve the objectives herein. No license or other right is granted hereunder to any Third Party IP, except as may be incorporated in the Work Product by Successful Respondent. 5.3 Further Actions Successful Respondent, upon request and without further consideration, shall perform any acts that may be deemed reasonably necessary or desirable by Customer to evidence more fully the transfer of ownership and/or registration of all Intellectual Property Rights in all Work Product to Customer to the fullest extent possible, including but not limited to the execution, acknowledgement and delivery of such further documents in a form determined by Customer. In the event Customer shall be unable to obtain Successful Respondent's signature due to the dissolution of Successful Respondent or Successful Respondent's unreasonable failure to respond to Customer's repeated requests for such signature on any document reasonably necessary for any purpose set forth in the foregoing sentence, Successful Respondent hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Customer and its duly authorized officers and agents as Successful Respondent's agent and Successful Respondent's attorney-in-fact to act for and in Successful Respondent's behalf and stead to execute and file any such document and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further any such purpose with the same force and effect as if executed and delivered by Successful Respondent, provided however that no such grant of right to Customer is applicable if Successful Respondent fails to execute any document due to a good faith dispute by Successful Respondent with respect to such document. It is understood that such power is coupled with an interest and is therefore irrevocable. Customer shall have the full and sole power to prosecute such applications and to take all other action concerning the Work Product, and Successful Respondent shall Appendix A Standard Contract Terms and Conditions Page 11 <Rev December 2021> cooperate, at Customer's sole expense, in the preparation and prosecution of all such applications and in any legal actions and proceedings concerning the Work Product. Successful Respondent hereby irrevocably and forever waives, and agrees never to assert, any Moral Rights in or to the Work Product which Successful Respondent may now have or which may accrue to Successful Respondent's benefit under U.S. or foreign copyright or other laws and any and all other residual rights and benefits which arise under any other applicable law now in force or hereafter enacted. Successful Respondent acknowledges the receipt of equitable compensation for its assignment and waiver of such Moral Rights. The term "Moral Rights" shall mean any and all rights of paternity or integrity of the Work Product and the right to object to any modification, translation or use of the Work Product, and any similar rights existing under the judicial or statutory law of any country in the world or under any treaty, regardless of whether or not such right is denominated or referred to as a moral right. 5.5 Confidentiality All documents, information and materials forwarded to Successful Respondent by Customer for use in and preparation of the Work Product shall be deemed the confidential information of Customer, and subject to the license granted by Customer to Successful Respondent under Section 5.8 Successful &npOndent License to Use. Hereunder, Successful Respondent shall not use, disclose, or permit any person to use or obtain the Work Product, or any portion thereof, in any manner without the prior written approval of Customer. The Contract is intended to protect Customer's proprietary rights pertaining to the Work Product, and the Intellectual Property Rights therein, and any misuse of such rights would cause substantial and irreparable harm to Customer's business. Therefore, Successful Respondent acknowledges and stipulates that a court of competent jurisdiction may immediately enjoin any material breach of the intellectual property, use, and confidentiality provisions of the Contract, upon a request by Customer, without requiring proof of irreparable injury as same should be presumed. 5.7 Return of Materials Pertaining to Work Product Upon the request of Customer, but in any event upon termination or expiration of the Contract, or a Statement of Work, Successful Respondent shall surrender to Customer all documents and things pertaining to the Work Product, including but not limited to drafts, memoranda, notes, records, drawings, manuals, computer software, reports, data, and all other documents or materials (and copies of same) generated or developed by Successful Respondent or furnished by Customer to Successful Respondent, including all materials embodying the Work Product, any Customer confidential information, or Intellectual Property Rights in such Work Product, regardless of whether complete or incomplete. This Section is intended to apply to all Work Product as well as to all documents and things furnished to Successful Respondent by Customer or by anyone else that pertain to the Work Product. Appendix A Standard Contract Terms and Conditions Page 12 <Rev December 2021> Customer hereby grants to Successful Respondent a non -transferable, non-exclusive, royalty -free, fully paid-up license to use any Work Product solely as necessary to provide the services to Customer. Except as provided in this Section, neither Successful Respondent nor any Subcontractor shall have the right to use the Work Product in connection with the provision of services to its other customers without the prior written consent of Customer, which consent may be withheld in Customer's sole discretion. A. To the extent that any Successful Respondent IP or Third Party IP are embodied or reflected in the Work Product, or are necessary to provide the services, Successful Respondent hereby grants to the Customer, or shall obtain from the applicable third party for Customer's benefit, the irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty -free right and license, for Customer's internal business purposes only, to i) use, execute, reproduce, display, perform, distribute copies of, and prepare derivative works based upon such Successful Respondent IP or Third Party IP and any derivative works thereof embodied in or delivered to Customer in conjunction with the Work Product, and ii) authorize others to do any or all of the foregoing. Successful Respondent agrees to notify Customer on delivery of the Work Product or services if such materials include any Third Party IP. B. On request, Successful Respondent shall provide Customer with documentation indicating a third party's written approval for Successful Respondent to use any Third Party IP that may be embodied or reflected in the Work Product. 5.10 Agreement rvith Third Party Providers Successful Respondent agrees that it shall have written agreement(s) that are consistent with the provisions hereof related to Work Product and Intellectual Property Rights with any Third Party Providers, prior to their providing such services or Work Product pursuant to the Contract, and that Successful Respondent shall maintain such written agreements at all times during performance of the Contract, which are sufficient to support all performance and grants of rights by Successful Respondent. Copies of such agreements shall be provided to the Customer promptly upon request. 5.11 License to Customer Successful Respondent grants to Customer, at no additional charge, a world-wide, non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty free right and license, solely for the Customer's internal business purposes, to use, copy, modify, display, perform (by any means), transmit and prepare derivative works of any Successful Respondent IP embodied in or delivered to Customer in conjunction with the Work Product. The foregoing license includes the right to sublicense third parties, solely for the purpose of engaging such third parties to assist or carryout Customer's internal business use of the Work Product.
