Date: August 20, 2025 Ticket: 2113373
Customer: City of Denton Department: NS-PS
Attention: Rita Herrera Fixed Price: $14,463
An incremental annual maintenance fee of $1,900 for the additonal environment will be
separately invoiced for this third NorthStar instance and is not included in this fixed services
price quote. This instance is temporary. The two additional GUI licenses will have an additional
total of $400 in maintenance fees.
Services Description: City of Denton (Denton) would like to set up a second NorthStar CIS non-
production instance. This instance will include the CIS and is to be patched to 6.6.30.
Scope of Work:
• Install NorthStar instance.
• Create DSNs.
• Configure NorthStar customer properties.
• Deploy NorthStar 6.6.22 to the new instance.
• Patch NorthStar database up to NorthStar 6.6.30
• Create SQL users for NorthStar non-production
• Migrate the ABE programs to the new TEST server
• Change ownership of database objects
• Perform sanity checks.
• Install 2 GUI licenses
Assumptions:
• All the programming for ABE is in Denton’s current test environment and will need to be
ported to the 2nd test environment.
• The operating system version on the new non-production (DEV) instance will match the
operating system requirements for the version being deployed (6.6.30).
• The second non-production (DEV) instance will be a refreshed and updated version of
Denton’s Production instance.
• Denton IT will need to create a separate VM environment for the second NorthStar non-
production instance.
• Denton IT will backup and restore the Denton production CIS database.
• Denton will adjust any keyvalues that reference production folders to point to new non-
production folders.

creation of the new NorthStar non-production instance.

• NorthStar Professional Services will address all issues associated with the creation of
the new non-production environment. Any issues associated with testing of CIS 6.6.30
will be handled separately by the Support Services Team, at no additional cost to Denton,
as part of the NorthStar Support Services Agreement.
• All project activities to be performed remotely, unless otherwise requested.
• Denton will provide the appropriate remote access to its network, facilities, and systems
as may be required to perform activities from one of NorthStar’s locations. NorthStar
shall abide by all rules and directions of Denton when accessing Denton’s network,
facilities or systems.
• Denton will install and configure IIS on the new server.
Approach:
NorthStar strives to commence all work within 90 days of contract award. However, client
demands and critical path resourcing can, at times, result in additional delays to project
starts. Please speak to your Account Manager to obtain the current anticipated project start
date.
Should additional time be required to complete this project at any time, you will be notified and
asked for your approval in advance of NorthStar completing the incremental work.
Acceptance Terms:
The work contained within this document is deemed completed and accepted upon Denton’s
confirmation that the new NorthStar non-production instance is available for testing.
Note: Any items requiring support following acceptance of this work should be logged through
the Support Desk.
Price:
Licenses: 2 GUI Licenses $800 each – Quanity: 2
License Maintenance: $200 each – Quantity: 2
Services: $12,863

the scope or our understanding of the scope, the price is subject to change. Any additional
scope will be charged at the NorthStar standard hourly rate.
Price excludes any applicable taxes.
Quote is valid for 60 days from date of delivery. After 60 days the quote will be considered

required information, or any requested suspension of work—Company reserves the right to
charge Customer for the resources allocated to the project for the duration of the delay. This

recurring revenue, or other applicable resources reserved for the project during the delay period.

Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure
ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, City of Denton (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to
you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for
providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through your DocuSign, Inc.
(DocuSign) Express user account. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly,
and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to these terms
and conditions, please confirm your agreement by clicking the 'I agree' button at the bottom of
this document.
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available
electronically to you by us. For such copies, as long as you are an authorized user of the
DocuSign system you will have the ability to download and print any documents we send to you
through your DocuSign user account for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such
documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of
any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee. You may
request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time
change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures
only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and
disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures
electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format,
and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such
paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must
withdraw your consent using the DocuSign 'Withdraw Consent' form on the signing page of your
DocuSign account. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn your consent to receive
required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no longer be able to use your
DocuSign Express user account to receive required notices and consents electronically from us
or to sign electronically documents from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide
electronically to you through your DocuSign user account all required notices, disclosures,
authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or
made available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of
you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required
notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given
us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through
the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as
described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the
consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures
electronically from us.
