3. Grant Eligibility; Payment Schedule.
a. COMPANY will be eligible for total Jobs Grant Funding (hereinafter a "Grant")
in an amount of up to $27,000.00. COMPANY acknowledges and agrees that
the initial Grant under this Agreement is payable on a reimbursement basis.
The number of jobs estimated to be provided is listed below. Jobs grant
payments are dependent upon the number of employees exceeding the
company's employment level at the time that this Agreement is approved by
the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners, and by the criteria
set forth below.
(i) For Phase I, 5 new qualifying jobs meeting the wage level commitment
in Section 5 of this Agreement shall be provided by the phase
commencement date of 01/01/26. For each of the three successive annual
periods that those jobs are maintained at the required wage level,
COMPANY shall receive 1/2 of the Grant amount for those 5 jobs.
(ii) For Phase II, 2 new qualifying jobs meeting the wage level commitment
in Section 5 of this agreement shall be provided by the phase
commencement date 01/01/27. For each of the three successive annual
periods that those jobs are maintained at the required wage level,
COMPANY shall receive 1/2 of the Grant amount for those 2 jobs.
-3-
(iv) It is understood that the quantity of jobs proposed above, their annual
wages, and dates of hire are estimates. Because of that, the quantity of
jobs provided may be less than 7, and the Commencement Date (for Grant
tracking) may be extended. Proposed jobs will remain eligible for Grant
incentives provided:
a. The minimum number of qualifying jobs provided in Phase I is
5.
b. The maximum number of jobs eligible for local jobs grant funds
for Phases I, and II is 7.
c. The maximum extension for a phase commencement date shall
be one year. Such commencement date extension may be
approved administratively by the County Planning and
Development Services Director or his designee, provided the
extension date meets the requirements of Section 3 of this
agreement. If any of the 7 eligible jobs proposed for Phases I, II,
and III are created after the Phase III commencement date or,
if applicable, after an administratively approved extension to
the Phase III commencement date, those jobs shall not be
eligible for local jobs grant funds.
In no case shall the total Grant exceed $27,000.00
(v) Failure of COMPANY to maintain claimed jobs for at least 3 years at
required wage levels will result in the reduction of the Grant amount paid
to COMPANY, as set forth herein. If, by the end of any of the annual
periods, COMPANY has not maintained the total number of claimed jobs
required or if COMPANY has provided the total jobs required, but the
annual wage for any of those jobs is less than required for that year, the
Planning and Development Services Director, or his designee, will lower
the jobs grant award for the respective year by the amount allocated in
such year for each job for which the requirements of this agreement are
not met. Thus, the total jobs grant award could be less than $27,000.00
by the end of this Agreement.
(vi) If COMPANY changes the products or services it provides in such a way
that would make COMPANY no longer qualify as a "Target Industry" or if
COMPANY relocates outside of Indian River County, COMPANY shall be in
Default of this Agreement. COMPANY shall reimburse COUNTY for
payments made to COMPANY while COMPANY was not a "Target Industry
or if while COMPANY was not relocated within Indian River County."
(vii) During the Term of this Agreement, COMPANY shall have a majority
(greater than 50%) of its goods and services, attributable to the Indian
River County location, sold or distributed outside of Indian River County.
-4-
COMPANY shall reimburse COUNTY for payments made to COMPANY
while COMPANY did not meet this requirement.
b. Performance Evaluation for Payment. Prior to the submittal of COMPANY's 1st
Quarterly Reemployment Compensation Report, COMPANY shall provide to
the COUNTY Planning and Development Services Director or his designee an
employee census and a copy of the Quarterly Reemployment Compensation
Report for the Effective Date of this Agreement. That employee census must
list the employee's name, job title, city and state in which the employee lives,
annual salary, location where the employee works, and date of hire.
COMPANY's performance evaluation will be conducted on an annual basis
using the information provided on the Quarterly Reemployment
Compensation Report (RT-6 form) and COMPANY's quarterly updates to its
employee census. Each updated employee census must include the
information referenced above plus the date of termination for each employee
(if the employee terminates employment with the COMPANY). COMPANY shall
supply additional documentation to the Planning and Development Services
Director, or his designee, in a form acceptable to the Planning and
Development Services Director, or his designee, showing that positions for
which Grant funds will be awarded are filled by people who live in COUNTY or
Adjacent Counties.
The Grant eligibility determinations will cover one-year periods, with each
yearly period beginning and ending as follows:
Phase Grant Eligibility Determinations
1St 2nd 3rd (final)
Begin End Begin End Begin End
1/01/2026 12/31/2026 1/01/2027 12/31/2027 1/01/2028 12/31/2028

(i) Each job must meet the minimum wage requirements
specified in this Agreement. Payment of Grant funds shall be made based
on the County's current adopted payment calculation methodology
(methodology approved by the BCC on 10-24-2017) within forty-five (45)
days after the date COMPANY submits the latest Quarterly Reemployment
Compensation Report comprising the Annual Job Status Report (as defined
in Paragraph 6), and this payment obligation shall survive the termination
of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should the date for
filing the last Quarterly Reemployment Compensation Report, as
described above, not coincide with the date that an eligibility
determination is made, COMPANY shall have the right to file a Quarterly
-5-
Reemployment Compensation Report, in a form substantially similar to a
Quarterly Reemployment Compensation Report, and such Quarterly
Reemployment Compensation Report shall constitute the Annual Job
Status Report, the filing of which shall begin the running of the forty-five
(45)-day period within which payment shall be made.
If COMPANY applies for a Qualified Target Industry(QTI) Tax
Refund from the State of Florida and if COMPANY has that QTI Tax Refund
approved by the State, the Planning and Development Services Director or
his designee will reduce the Grant amount paid directly to COMPANY for
each eligibility determination in an amount sufficient to cover COUNTY's
QTI Tax Refund 20% contribution obligation to the State for COMPANY's
QTI Tax Refund agreement. The Planning and Development Services
Director or his designee will submit the 20% payment obligation to the
State for placement in the Florida Economic Development Trust Fund.
(ii) If at the time of performance evaluation for payment as
described in subsection 3.b COMPANY is not current on COUNTY Real
Estate and Tangible Personal Property Taxes, COUNTY shall withhold Grant
payments for that eligibility determination time period and COMPANY
shall automatically forfeit its right to collect Grant payments for that
eligibility time period. COMPANY shall remain eligible for any remaining
future Grant payments for future eligibility time periods provided
COMPANY is current on such taxes referenced above at the time of future
Grant eligibility determination time periods.
4. Job Creation Commitment. COMPANY estimates that it will provide 7 new
Qualifying Jobs within COUNTY as set forth in Exhibit "B", which is attached hereto
and made a part hereof. The exact number of jobs actually supplied and their
salaries, however, may vary. Grant funds will be awarded up to a maximum of
$27,000.00. The Grant award will be based on the following:
Category* Amount Per Job
75% to 99.99% of Indian River County
Average Annual Wage $3,000
100% to 149.99% of Indian River County $5,000
Average Annual Wage
150% of Indian River County Average $7,000
Annual Wage (or greater)
*One average annual wage category will be utilized consistent with Exhibit "D" and the
County's current adopted payment calculation methodology.
-6-
5. Wage Level Commitment. COMPANY estimates that it will pay 4 employees whose
jobs are eligible for a Grant hereunder an annual wage of not less than $40,397.25,
will pay 3 employees an annual wage of not less than $53,863.00, and will pay 0
employees an annual wage of not less than $80,794.50. The annual wage of the
positions will be determined without taking into account the value of any benefits.
COMPANY shall, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 6 below, provide
written verification of such wages satisfactory to the Planning and Development
Services Director or his designee.
6. Annual Job Status. COMPANY must provide the Planning and Development
Services Director or his designee with Quarterly Reemployment Compensation
Reports (Form RT-6) of its business operations within COUNTY on State form RT-
6, as amended, a sample of which is attached hereto and made a part hereof as
Exhibit "C". COMPANY must also provide the Planning and Development Services
Director or his designee with quarterly updates to its employee census for
employees working at its Indian River County location(s) (see section 3.b. of this
Agreement). The cumulative Quarterly Reemployment Compensation Reports
required to be filed for the annual period, correlated with each eligibility
determination, and the corresponding quarterly employee census shall
collectively comprise the Annual Job Status Report. Quarterly, COMPANY must
also provide the Planning and Development Services Director or his designee a
signed statement indicating the percent of its total sales/services from the Indian
River County location provided outside of Indian River County for the jobs grant
payment time period.
Starting with calendar quarter 4 in 2026, quarterly reports must be submitted for
Grant eligibility determination. Those quarterly reports must be submitted no
later than 60 days after the end of each quarter, until the termination of this
Agreement. Submittal deadline may be waived by the Planning and Development
Services Director, for good cause.
7. Default; Termination. Except as set forth herein, in the event that COMPANY
defaults in the performance of its guarantees and commitments as provided for
in this Agreement, COUNTY may, at its option, terminate this Agreement.
8. Indemnification. COMPANY shall indemnify and hold harmless and defend
COUNTY, its agents, servants, and employees from and against any and all claims,
liabilities, losses, and/or causes of action which may arise from any negligent act
or omission of COMPANY, its agents, servants, or employees in the performance
of services under this Agreement.
9. Forum; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of
Florida. Any and all legal action necessary to enforce the Agreement will be held
in Indian River County or the Federal District Court for the Southern District of
Florida. No remedy herein conferred upon any party is intended to be exclusive of
-7-
any other remedy, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall
be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing
by law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. No single or partial exercise by any
party of any right, power, or remedy hereunder shall preclude any other or further
exercise thereof. Parties hereby waive their right for a jury trial.
10. Lobbyist Certification. COMPANY warrants that it has not employed or retained
any company or person, other than a bona fide employee working solely for
COMPANY, to solicit or secure this Agreement and that it has not paid or agreed
to pay any person, company, corporation, individual, or firm, other than a bona
fide employee working solely for COMPANY, any fee, commission, percentage,
gift, or any other consideration contingent upon or resulting from the award or
making of this Agreement.
11. No Discrimination Certification. COMPANY warrants and represents that all of its
employees are treated equally during employment without regard to race, color,
religion, disability, sex, age, national origin, ancestry, marital status, or sexual
orientation.
12. Attorneys Fees. If any legal action or other proceeding is brought for the
enforcement of this Agreement, or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default
or misrepresentation in connection with any provisions of this Agreement, each
party shall bear its own costs.
13. Enforceability. If any term or provision of this Agreement, or the application
thereof to any person or circumstances, shall to any extent be held invalid or
unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such terms
or provision, to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held
invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected, and every other term and provision
of this Agreement shall be deemed valid and enforceable to the extent permitted
by law. The COMPANY's failure to maintain its job creation commitment or annual
wage level commitment for any one year will result in the decrease of the Grant
amount it was scheduled to receive for that year; however, such decrease will not
preclude the COMPANY's receipt of scheduled Grant amounts for those
subsequent years in which it is able to maintain its job creation and wage level
commitment.
14. Assignment. COMPANY shall not, directly or indirectly, assign or transfer any of
its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or any interest therein (the
foregoing herein collectively "Transfer"), without the express prior written
consent of the Planning and Development Services Director. The Planning and
Development Services Director shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any
Transfer. Any such attempted Transfer without the express prior written Planning
and Development Services Director's consent shall be null and void and may, at
the option of the County Planning and Development Services Director, be deemed
-8-
a Default under this Agreement. COMPANY acknowledges and agrees that the
Planning and Development Services Director has the right, in granting or
withholding consent to any Transfer, to consider, among other things, the
financial responsibility and business reputation of the proposed assignee or
transferee (the foregoing herein collectively "Transferee"); and any other items
that the COUNTY Planning and Development Services Director, in his sole
discretion, deems appropriate.
If COMPANY seeks the Planning and Development Services Director's consent for
a Transfer, COMPANY shall submit to the Planning and Development Services
Director a written request therefore, accompanied by the following
documentation: (i) the name, address, and telephone number of the proposed
Transferee; (ii) a description of the business and jobs, including wages, to be
created in COUNTY; and (iii) a financial statement or other reasonably detailed
financial information concerning the proposed Transferee. If the Planning and
Development Services Director withholds the consent to Transfer, COMPANY may
appeal to the County Administrator. If the County Administrator withholds the
consent to Transfer, COMPANY may appeal to the Board of County
Commissioners. COMPANY acknowledges and agrees that: (a) the County
Administrator or his designee, or the Indian River County Board of County
Commissioners, has the right to request any additional information deemed
necessary to make the decision relating to consent to the Transfer; and (b) if
appealed to the Board of County Commissioners such request for a Transfer is
expressly subject to the approval of the Transfer by the Board of County
Commissioners, and such Transfer shall become effective only when signed by the
Transferee and approved by the Board, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld.
The foregoing covenant shall be binding on the permitted successors or assigns of
COMPANY. The prohibition on Transfers shall not prohibit a change in the form in
which COMPANY conducts business. COMPANY will be released from further
liability under this Agreement in the event of an approved Transfer, provided that
the COUNTY's consent to any Transfer will not otherwise relieve COMPANY from
any pre-existing obligation to COUNTY under this Agreement.
15. Conflict of Interest. COMPANY represents that it presently has no interest and
shall acquire no interest, either direct or indirect, which would conflict in any
manner with the performance of services required hereunder, as provided for in
Florida Statutes Part III, Chapter 112. COMPANY further represents that no person
having any interest shall be employed for said performance.

understandings other than those stated herein. None of the provisions, terms and
conditions contained in this Agreement may be added to, modified, superseded
or otherwise altered, except by written instrument executed by the parties

18. No Pledge of Credit. COMPANY shall not pledge COUNTY's credit or make it a
guarantor of payment or surety for any contract, debt, obligation, judgment, lien,
or any form of indebtedness.
19. Public Records Compliance. COUNTY is a public agency subject to Chapter 119,
Florida Statutes, as modified by exemptions in Chapter 288, Florida Statutes. The

all applicable requirements for retaining public records. All records stored
