DocuSign Envelope ID:A8E51 BF8-6EBC-4632-A21 F-FE02EF5B133D <br /> openbroadband <br /> We are also in discussion with Chatham County to implement broadband service in the areas <br /> immediately adjacent to Orange County. We are open to a consolidated effort with a <br /> combination of county RFPs to leverage our network build in that area to benefit both counties. <br /> Disposition of Assets in event of project termination <br /> We understand and appreciate the need for the County to preserve the goals of the RFP in the <br /> event the project(s) are terminated. In the event Orange County determines that Open Broadband <br /> has failed to comply with the terms of the Agreement, Open Broadband, upon receipt of written <br /> notice from Orange County of said Default, shall immediately return all unexpended funds as of <br /> the date of the Default, to Orange County and the county may, among other legal remedies <br /> available, terminate the Agreement. <br /> E-Verify and Living;Wage <br /> All Open Broadband employees are authorized to work in the US. Since we have fewer than 25 <br /> employees we are exempt from E-Verify filings. However, if awarded the RFP and Orange <br /> County requires us to go through the process,we will do so. All of our employees exceed the <br /> living wage objective set by Orange County. <br /> Other Information, advice, counsel <br /> At Open Broadband, we believe that once broadband infrastructure is available, the conversation <br /> quickly shifts to `how do you leverage iff.. Through our efforts with NC Hearts Gigabit and <br /> Charlotte Hearts Gigabit we can bring both an economic development, and a Digital Inclusion <br /> focus to Orange County. Open Broadband would be happy to help in these efforts, regardless of <br /> the carrier selected for County broadband services. <br /> Thank you for the opportunity to respond to the RFP. We welcome questions and additional <br /> conversations about working together to foster greater broadband service. <br /> Alan Fitzpatrick <br /> CEO <br /> Open Broadband, LLC <br /> 704-237-0102 <br /> Open Broadband,LLC I PO Box 723.Waxhaw,NC 28173 1 704-237-0102 <br /> www.openbb.net <br />
