Corp. Department:Recreation and Parks Caption:Motion to accept letter from 30901 Development Corporation regarding termination of an Operational Agreement at W.T. Johnson Community Center. (Approved by Public Services Committee September 29, 2008) Background:The Augusta Commission entered into an operational partnership agreement in 2000 with 30901 Development Corporation for W.T. Johnson Community Center, 1606 Hunter St. They have been responsible for all service delivery of the center and also custodial maintenance of the building. Recreation and Parks has supplied one p/t employee per the agreement during this timeframe to assist in staffing of the facility. Their attached letter outlines their reasons for terminating the agreement. Analysis:With this partnership no longer in place, the facility cannot be properly operated with one p/t staff person as currently budgeted. There needs to be a minimum of two additional fulltime staff added to Recreation and Parks to operate this facility, if another partnership is not secured for the facility, which will be pursued. Financial Impact:Two additional full time staff: $62,000 with benefits. Alternatives:1. Shift staff from other facilities, leaving those facilities short staffed starting in 2009. 2. Add two positions to the current budget 3. Attempt to secure another operational partner 4. Close the facility Recommendation:#1 and #3. Shift existing staff from other facilities thru the end of 2008 to keep the facility operating, although this would only be a temporary solution due to the need to shift this staff back for other programs starting in January, 2009. An attempt will be made to try andd secure another similar operational partnership. Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: None needed in 2008 budget. $62,000 would need to be added to 2009 budget. REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Finance. Cover Memo Item # 16 Administrator.

(Approved by Administrative Services and Finance Committees September 29, 2008) Background:The budget that was requested by the HR Department during the budget entry period for the 2008 fiscal year (August 2007) was underestimated. Expenses have not necessarily been higher in 2008, but the amount requested was insufficient. HR has cut back on expenses, but certain costs, like physicians’ fees and drug testing for pre-employment screening, continue to come in as new employees are processed in to the organization. HR also continues to use office supplies to support orientation and office activities, although the staff has been advised to recycle and has been doing so. Analysis:A review was conducted of the current outstanding invoices and the anticipated operating expenses for the remainder of the year. It is estimated that $17,000 will be needed for the department to continue to pay outstanding bills, new bills, purchases supplies, etc. for the remainder of 2008. The attached spreadsheet provides a detailed list of needs. Financial Impact:The approval of this request will require that $17,000 be moved into HR’s operating budget. Alternatives:None. HR has no money to operate with and has outstanding bills that must be paid in order to process personnel into the organization.

(Approved by Administrative Services and Finance Committees September 29, 2008) Background:BlueCross BlueShield of Georgia is the current Medical & Dental Insurance Provider for Augusta and has been since April 1, 2006. A Request for Proposals (08-132) was advertised and reviewed by the Human Resources Department, the Procurement Department, Benalytics (Benefits Consulting Group) and the RFP Selection Committee. Analysis:The only medical insurance provider to submit a proposal that met all of the specifications of the RFP was BlueCross BlueShield of Georgia. There were three proposals accepted as dental insurance providers (BlueCross BlueShield of Georgia, Delta Dental and United Concordia). A detailed report of the RFP process and the results is attached. The report includes an explicit cost breakdown as well as additional features, like Wellness, that will be part of the new plan with BCBS. Financial Impact:The Medical Insurance Premium will not change for 2009. The Delta Insurance Premium is a decrease from our existing dental premium, saving Augusta $522,213 over the next three years. Alternatives:Do not approve renewing the contract with BlueCross BlueShield of Georgia as Augusta’s Medical Insurance Provider and Delta Dental as Augusta’s Dental Insurance provider.

Attachment number 1Page 6 of 19 Fully Insured Medical Plans • BCBSGA proposed to hold the current plan rates for 2009 on a fully-insured basis • We asked BCBSGA about further reductions in the proposed rates BCBSGA had already given the best rates possible utilizing Augusta’s claims experience. •We asked if Augusta could expect a large increase in 7 •We asked if Augusta could expect a large increase in 2010 as a result of keeping the rates the same in 2009 as they are in 2008 BCBSGA’s underwriters indicated that holding the rates was based on sound underwriting that it is not a case of BCBSGA buying the business in a competitive bid situation and requesting a large increase next year. • Based on Benalytics’ underwriting, it is more advantageous for Augusta to remain fully insured for 2009 given the no increase renewal proposed by BCBSGA Attachment number 1Page 7 of 19 Fully Insured Medical Plans • We asked BCBSGA about the differential in plan costs for the various plans offered by Augusta. Our review determined that the current rates do not reflect the true differential between the plans. BCBSGA’s response is as follows: HMO/POS differential - When we implemented this group, there was a 6% differential between the two plans. We simply mirrored the plan at United. Over the past couple of years, in order to contain cost, this group has made several 8 the past couple of years, in order to contain cost, this group has made several benefits changes.

These are included and a part of the entire BlueChoice Healthcare Plan Group Master Contract. Those items listed only in the Certificate Booklet will be controlled by that document and all rights and obligations related thereto will be determined by its integrity, related internal procedures and medical policy documents. ARTICLE 2 ELIGIBILITY 2.1 Requirements Requirements for eligibility are shown in the Group Master Application, which is attached and is a part of this Contract. Any application- -new group Subscriber, supplemental application, or application for change of coverage--must be received and approved by BCBSHP before an Effective Date can be assigned. 2.2 Late Enrollees Late Enrollees (otherwise eligible Employees or Dependents who do not enroll when initially eligible, or within 31 days of a qualifying event entitling them to a special enrollment period) may enroll during the annual open enrollment period. The Certificate Booklet contains detailed information regarding this issue. 2.3 Notice of Status Change The Group must notify BCBSHP of changes in coverage status for all affected Members who change the type of coverage option. If the Group does not notify BCBSHP of such changes in coverage within 30 or 31 days, the Group agrees to repay BCBSHP for all claims payments legally incurred after a Member’s eligibility has changed. If any claim is submitted during the interim, BCBSHP will deduct the applicable Premium from any claim payment. ARTICLE 3 BENEFITS 3.1 Introduction The BlueChoice Healthcare Plan is a plan providing primary and referral health care services. Medical care is furnished by Network Providers, Physicians and specialists chosen by Members for primary and specialty care. The only exceptions to all services not being rendered by a Network Provider are: 1. when the service required for treatment of the covered condition is not available at a Network Hospital or from a Network Physician. In this case prior approval must be received from the BlueChoice Healthcare Plan Medical Director; or 2. when a Member needs life-threatening emergency care either inside or outside the service area. 3.2 Primary Care Physician Unless the Group chooses one of our Blue Direct or Open Access products on the Group Master Application, all Network care must be received from or coordinated through a Primary Care Physician (PCP). This is called PCP Referral. If a Member receives care without a PCP referral, the Member is responsible for paying all bills. These products allow flexibility for Network Physician access. With Blue Direct, all In- Network primary care must be received from a Primary Care Physician. A Member may access specialty care directly from a Network Specialist Physician; no PCP referral is needed. With Open Access, a Member may access both a Primary Care Physician and a Network Specialist Physician directly; no referral is needed. 1 F-1681.780 11/2005 Attachment number 3Page 3 of 10 ARTICLE 4 GENERAL PROVISIONS 4.1 Entire Contract and Changes This document, the Certificate Booklet, the Group Master Application, and any future changes, attachments or amendments will be the Entire Contract. No change in this Contract is valid unless signed by the President or an authorized officer of BCBSHP. No agent or employee of BCBSHP may change this Contract or declare any part of it invalid. 4.2 Applications for Enrollment Information will be furnished to BCBSHP for each Employee as follows: 1. Enrolling, new Members--Application for Coverage. 2. A prerequisite to eligibility for coverage is that the Employees submitting applications for coverage must have been continuously employed for the length of time stipulated in the Group Master Application. 3. If Employees do not elect coverage when first eligible to apply and later elect to apply for coverage, a health statement application must be submitted. A post- eligible (late entrant) application for family members also must be in the form of a health statement application. 4.3 Enrollment and Payment Procedures 1. The employer (Applicant) agrees that enrollment will be restricted to those on the employer’s payroll, and that each new Employee will be given an opportunity to apply for coverage at such time the Employee becomes eligible. Employees who do not elect to apply for coverage must submit a Waiver of Coverage form. 2. Further, the employer agrees to collect the amount of the Employee’s contribution, if any, by payroll deduction; and to pay on or before the due date to BCBSHP the employer’s contribution, if any, plus the Employee’s contribution, if any, which, when combined, amounts to the total monthly subscription charges. 3. There shall be an annual re-enrollment period that will precede the other carrier’s (if any) anniversary date by sixty (60) days. During this time, eligible Employees may transfer their membership from other carriers (if any) to BCBSHP. The Effective Date of these transfers and eligibility for coverage will be defined in the change form. 4.4 Subscription Charges 1. Initial charges shall be payable in advance of the Effective Date, and coverage shall not be in effect until such payment is received by BCBSHP. Subsequent charges shall be payable monthly on or before the due date designated on the Group Master Application. Except for the initial payment, a grace period of thirty- one (31) days beyond the due date shall be allowed for payment of charges due. BCBSHP reserves the right to refuse to accept any payment of charges after the expiration of the grace period. If the employer fails to pay such charges to BCBSHP within the grace period, the Group Master Contract automatically will be terminated as of the end of the grace period; however, the employer still shall be liable to BCBSHP in the amount of any claims paid on behalf of the Group after the due date, unless proper notice of termination has been given as provided below. 2. BCBSHP may change the monthly subscription charges whenever the benefits are changed by amendment, or as of any monthly due date upon giving sixty (60) days’ prior notice to the employer. BCBSHP may also change the monthly subscription charges when the enrollment falls below the minimum requirement agreed to in the Group Master Application or a significant enrollment change is made through acquisition of a subsidiary (ies), the Employees of which are to be added to this Group. 4.5 Certificate Booklets, Miscellaneous Forms and Notices 1. BCBSHP agrees to provide Employees a Certificate Booklet outlining the benefits. Such Certificate Booklet is an integral part of the Group Master Contract as stated above. 2 F-1681.780 11/2005 Attachment number 3Page 4 of 10 2. The employer agrees to receive, on behalf of its covered Employees, all notices, certificates and identification cards delivered by BCBSHP and to forward such materials to the persons involved. 3. Any notice shall be sufficient if given to the employer when addressed to its office, as stated in the Group Master Application; if given to BCBSHP when addressed to its office; or if given to an Employee, when addressed to the Employee either his or her address as it appears on his or her records at BCBSHP, or in care of the employer. 4. The Group Master Contract may be modified from time to time. BCBSHP will give the employer sixty (60) days’ notice prior to the Effective Date of any such change. 4.6 Effective Date of Coverage The Effective Date of Coverage is stated on the Group Master Application. The first Contract anniversary date is also stated on the Group Master Application; these two dates do not have to be separated by twelve (12) months. The Group Master Contract, if issued, shall remain in force unless terminated in accordance with the terms of this Contract. The due date shall be the first of each month. 4.7 Time Limit on Certain Defenses Two years after this Contract is issued, no fraudulent statements which might have been included on a Subscriber’s application can be used to void the Contract. Also, after these same two years no claim can be denied because of any fraudulent statement on this application. 4.8 Reinstatement If a Member’s coverage ends in any manner, that Member may be considered for reinstatement. 4.9 Unreasonable Fees If BCBSHP considers a fee unreasonable, it will determine a Customary Fee. Payment will be based on the Customary Fee. 4.10 Compliance with Given Provisions BCBSHP has the right to waive any part of this Contract for the benefit of the insured. This waiver in no way affects BCBSHP’s right to apply that part of the Contract in paying a future claim. 4.11 Contract Administration 1. For proper adjudication of claims under this Contract, it is agreed, and the Group and its Members consent, that all medical records involving any condition for which a claim is presented will be furnished at BCBSHP’s request, and all privileges with respect to such information are waived. The Group and its Members agree to participate and cooperate with BCBSHP in any pre-admission, concurrent or other medical review activity at any Hospital or medical facility as BCBSHP deems appropriate. This information will be kept confidential to the extent provided by law. Payment will not be provided where sufficient information cannot be obtained to properly adjudicate a claim. 2. Any person or entity having information about an illness or Injury for which benefits are claimed may give BCBSHP at its request, any information (including copies of records) about the illness or Injury. In addition, BCBSHP may with the Member’s written consent give any person or entity similar information at their request if they are providing similar benefits. 3. In making a decision on claims involving payment for services or supplies or days of care that are determined by BCBSHP to be medically unnecessary, BCBSHP reserves the right to obtain advisory opinions from Physician consultants in the appropriate specialty under consideration prior to reaching a decision. On reconsideration of denied Medical Necessity claims, BCBSHP further reserves the right to refer such cases to an appropriate peer review committee for an advisory opinion before BCBSHP renders its final determination on such claims. 4.12 Employer Declaration The employer submits eligibility and group health profile information with the Group Master Application. The employer understands that the information on such forms will be used by BCBSHP to evaluate the actuarial risk of the Group and any coverage which may be issued can be rescinded for the 3 F-1681.780 11/2005 Attachment number 3Page 5 of 10 entire Group if this information is incomplete, misleading or inaccurate. 4.13 Refunds Refunds with respect to a Group’s request, based on circumstances including, but not limited to, retroactive terminations of Employees from the Group, will be limited to a maximum period of three months. Any eligible refunds for the Employee’s coverage will be sent to the Group. 4.14 Unpaid Premium Upon the payment of a claim under this Contract, any Premiums then due and unpaid or covered by any note or written order, may be deducted from that claim payment. 4.15 Applicable Law This Contract is governed by the laws and regulations of the State of Georgia. Nothing in this Contract shall be construed so as to be in violation of any federal or state law or regulation. In the event of state or federally mandated benefits, BCBSHP reserves the right to change the subscription charges (rates) with sixty (60) days’ prior notice. 4.16 Right of Recovery When any payment for Covered Services has been made by BCBSHP in an amount that exceeds the maximum benefits available for such services under the Contract, or whenever payment has been made in error by BCBSHP for Non-Covered Services, BCBSHP shall have the right to recover such payment from the Member or, if applicable, the provider of Covered Services. 4.17 Limitation of Actions No lawsuit may be filed by a Member to recover benefits on a claim made under this Contract unless commenced at least sixty (60) days after filing a claim. A Member cannot file any legal action after three (3) years from the date of filing a claim. 4.18 Right to Audit BCBSHP reserves the right to audit a Group’s Employee roster to verify enrollment participation and eligibility requirements. 4.19 Non-Duplication As a condition precedent to the issuance of this Group Master Contract, the employer agreed that other similar Group coverage for Hospital and/or Physician services, if any, which was in effect, would be cancelled on or prior to the Effective Date of this Group Master Contract, and no other group coverage providing benefits for Hospital and/or Physician services would be adopted by the employer during the period of this Contract. In the event the employer adopts such other coverage, the employer will terminate this Contract by giving sixty (60) days’ written notice prior to the Effective Date of the new coverage, except when such other coverage will not duplicate benefits already provided by BCBSHP. After notice by the employer, BCBSHP, at its discretion, may waive this restriction. Such waiver will be in writing and must be signed by the President of BCBSHP. 4.20 Licensed Controlled Affiliate The Group on behalf of itself and its Members hereby expressly acknowledges its understanding this policy constitutes a Contract solely between the Group and BCBSHP, which is an independent corporation operating under a license from the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association, an association of independent Blue Cross and Blue Shield Plans (the Association), permitting Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Georgia, Inc. to use the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Service Marks in the state of Georgia, and that BCBSHP is not contracting as the agent of the Association. The Group further acknowledges and agrees that it has not entered into this Contract based upon representations by any person other than BCBSHP and that no person, entity, or organization other than BCBSHP shall be held accountable or liable to the Group for any of BCBSHP’s obligation to the Member created under this Contract. This paragraph shall not create any additional obligations whatsoever on the part of BCBSHP other than those obligations created under other provisions of this agreement. 4 F-1681.780 11/2005 Attachment number 3Page 6 of 10 4.21 Calculation of Coinsurance and Other Subscriber Liability The calculation of Member liability for Covered Services for claims incurred outside of Georgia and processed through the Program typically will be at the lower of the provider’s actual billed charges or the negotiated rate BCBSHP pays the on-site Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield Plan. The methods employed by a Host Blue to determine a negotiated price will vary among Host Blues based on the terms of each Host Blue’s provider contracts. The negotiated price paid to a Host Blue by BCBSHP on a claim for health care services processed through BlueCard may represent: Often this “negotiated price” will consist of a simple discount. But sometimes it is an estimated final price that factors in expected settlements or other non-claims transactions with a health care provider or with a specific group of providers. The negotiated price may also be a discount from billed charges that reflects average expected savings. The estimated or average price may be adjusted in the future to correct for over-or underestimation of past prices. In addition, statutes require Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield Plans in a small number of states to use a basis for calculating Member liability for Covered Services that does not reflect the entire savings realized on a particular claim. Thus, when your Members received Covered Services in these states, their Member liability for Covered Services will be calculated using these states’ statutory methods. Like all Blue Cross and Blue Shield Licensees, BCBSHP participates in a program called “BlueCard.” Whenever Members access health care services outside the geographic area BCBSHP serves, the claim for those services may be processed through BlueCard and presented to BCBSHP for payment in conformity with network access rules of the BlueCard Policies then in effect (“Policies”). Under BlueCard, when Members receive covered health care services within the geographic area served by an on-site Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield Licensee (“Host Blue”), BCBSHP will remain responsible to the Group for fulfilling BCBSHP’s contract obligations. However, the Host Blue will only be responsible, in accordance with applicable BlueCard Policies, if any, for providing such services as contracting with its Participating Providers, handling all interaction with its Participating Providers, and providing some managed care services. The financial terms of BlueCard are described generally below. 4.22 Liability Calculation Method Per Claim The calculation of the Member liability on claims for covered health care services incurred outside the geographic area BCBSHP serves and processed through BlueCard will be based on the lower of the provider's billed charges or the negotiated price BCBSHP pays the Host Blue. (i) the actual price paid on the claim by the Host Blue to the health care provider (“Actual Price”), or (ii) an estimated price, determined by the Host Blue in accordance with BlueCard Policies, based on the Actual Price increased or reduced to reflect aggregate payments expected to result from settlements, withholds, any other contingent payment arrangements and non-claims transactions with all of the Host Blue’s health care providers or one or more particular providers (“Estimated Price”), or (iii) an average price, determined by the Host Blue in accordance with BlueCard Policies, based on a billed charges discount representing the Host Blue’s average savings expected after settlements, withholds, any other contingent payment arrangements and non-claims transactions for all of its providers or for a specified group of providers (“Average Price”). An Average Price may result in greater variation to the Member and to the Group from the Actual Price than would an Estimated Price. Host Blues using either the Estimated Price or an Average Price will, in accordance with BlueCard Policies, prospectively increase or reduce the Estimated Price or Average Price to correct for over- or underestimation of past prices. However, the amount paid by the Member is a final price and will not be affected by such prospective adjustment. 5 F-1681.780 11/2005 Attachment number 3Page 7 of 10 Statutes in a small number of states may require a Host Blue either (1) to use a basis for calculating the Member liability for covered health care services that does not reflect the entire savings realized, or expected to be realized, on a particular claim or (2) to add a surcharge. Should any state statutes mandate liability calculation methods that differ from the negotiated price methodology or require a surcharge, the Host Blue would then calculate the Member liability for any covered health care services consistent with the applicable state statute in effect at the time the Member received those services. 4.23 Return of Overpayments Under BlueCard, recoveries from a Host Blue or from Participating Providers of a Host Blue can arise in several ways, including, but not limited to, anti-fraud and abuse audits, provider/hospital audits, credit balance audits, Utilization Review refunds, and unsolicited refunds. In some cases, the Host Blue will engage third parties to assist in discovery or collection of recovery amounts. The fees of such a third party are netted against the recovery. Recovery amounts, net of fees, if any, will be applied in accordance with applicable BlueCard Policies, which generally require correction on a claim-by-claim or prospective basis. 4.24 Determinations of Covered Health Care Services If BCBSHP, or if the applicable Group, determines that health care services are covered, or the Group’s medical plan covers the health care services, coverage of those health care services cannot be denied based on the Host Blue’s network protocols. However, under BlueCard, the Member cannot be denied coverage of health care services received outside of the geographic area BCBSHP serves if the health care services (i) are covered by the network protocols of the Host Blue; and (ii) are not specifically limited or excluded by the Group’s medical plan document. ARTICLE 5 CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH BENEFITS SHALL BE RENDERED 5.1 Hospital Inpatient Benefits 1. Hospital Inpatient Benefits are available only if a Member is admitted as a bed patient to a Hospital on the order of a licensed Primary Care Physician. The Member must be under the care of this Physician. The Primary Care Physician must be on the staff of, or acceptable to, the Hospital at which the Member is a patient. 2. The service which the Member receives at a Hospital is subject to all the rules and regulations of the Hospital selected.

These are included and a part of the entire BlueChoice Option Group Master Contract. Those items listed only in the Certificate Booklet will be controlled by that document and all rights and obligations related thereto will be determined by its integrity, related internal procedures and medical policy documents. ARTICLE 2 ELIGIBILITY 2.1 Requirements Requirements for eligibility are shown in the Group Master Application, which is attached and is a part of this Contract. Any application- -new group Subscriber, supplemental application, or application for change of coverage--must be received and approved by BCBSHP before an Effective Date can be assigned. 2.2 Late Enrollees Late Enrollees (otherwise eligible Employees or Dependents who do not enroll when initially eligible, or within 31 days of a qualifying event entitling them to a special enrollment period) may enroll during the annual open enrollment period. The Certificate Booklet contains detailed information regarding this issue. 2.3 Notice of Status Change The Group must notify BCBSHP of changes in coverage status for all affected Members who change the type of coverage option. If the Group does not notify BCBSHP of such changes in coverage within 30 or 31 days, the Group agrees to repay BCBSHP for all claims payments legally incurred after a Member’s eligibility has changed. If any claim is submitted during the interim, BCBSHP will deduct the applicable Premium from any claim payment. ARTICLE 3 BENEFITS 3.1 Introduction BlueChoice Option is a point-of-service plan providing primary and referral health care services. Medical care is furnished by Network Providers, Physicians and specialists chosen by Members for primary and specialty care. Benefits are higher when care is provided by In-Network Providers. The only exceptions to all services not being rendered by a Network Provider are: 1. when the service required for treatment of the covered condition is not available at a Network Hospital or from a Network Physician. In this case prior approval must be received from the BCBSHP Medical Director; 2. when a Member needs life-threatening emergency care either inside or outside the service area; or 3. when a Member decides to use an Out-of- Network Provider for a particular service. 3.2 Primary Care Physician Unless the Group chooses one of our Blue Direct or Open Access products on the Group Master Application, all Network care must be received from or coordinated through a Primary Care Physician (PCP). This is called PCP Referral. If a Member receives care without a PCP referral, the Member is responsible for paying all bills. These products allow flexibility for Network Physician access. With Blue Direct, all In- Network primary care must be received from a Primary Care Physician. A Member may access specialty care directly from a Network Specialist Physician; no PCP referral is needed. With Open Access, a Member may access both a Primary Care Physician and a Network Specialist Physician directly; no referral is needed. 1 F-1681.770 11/2005 Attachment number 4Page 3 of 10 ARTICLE 4 GENERAL PROVISIONS 4.1 Entire Contract and Changes This document, the Certificate Booklet, the Group Master Application, and any future changes, attachments or amendments will be the Entire Contract. No change in this Contract is valid unless signed by the President or an authorized officer of BCBSHP. No agent or employee of BCBSHP may change this Contract or declare any part of it invalid. 4.2 Applications for Enrollment Information will be furnished to BCBSHP for each Employee as follows: 1. Enrolling, new Members--Application for Coverage. 2. A prerequisite to eligibility for coverage is that the Employees submitting applications for coverage must have been continuously employed for the length of time stipulated in the Group Master Application. 3. If Employees do not elect coverage when first eligible to apply and later elect to apply for coverage, a health statement application must be submitted. A post- eligible (late entrant) application for family members also must be in the form of a health statement application. 4.3 Enrollment and Payment Procedures 1. The employer (Applicant) agrees that enrollment will be restricted to those on the employer’s payroll, and that each new Employee will be given an opportunity to apply for coverage at such time the Employee becomes eligible. Employees who do not elect to apply for coverage must submit a Waiver of Coverage form. 2. Further, the employer agrees to collect the amount of the Employee’s contribution, if any, by payroll deduction; and to pay on or before the due date to BCBSHP the employer’s contribution, if any, plus the Employee’s contribution, if any, which, when combined, amounts to the total monthly subscription charges. 3. There shall be an annual re-enrollment period that will precede the other carrier’s (if any) anniversary date by sixty (60) days. During this time, eligible Employees may transfer their membership from other carriers (if any) to BCBSHP. The Effective Date of these transfers and eligibility for coverage will be defined in the change form. 4.4 Subscription Charges 1. Initial charges shall be payable in advance of the Effective Date, and coverage shall not be in effect until such payment is received by BCBSHP. Subsequent charges shall be payable monthly on or before the due date designated on the Group Master Application. Except for the initial payment, a grace period of thirty- one (31) days beyond the due date shall be allowed for payment of charges due. BCBSHP reserves the right to refuse to accept any payment of charges after the expiration of the grace period. If the employer fails to pay such charges to BCBSHP within the grace period, the Group Master Contract automatically will be terminated as of the end of the grace period; however, the employer still shall be liable to BCBSHP in the amount of any claims paid on behalf of the Group after the due date, unless proper notice of termination has been given as provided below. 2. BCBSHP may change the monthly subscription charges whenever the benefits are changed by amendment, or as of any monthly due date upon giving sixty (60) days’ prior notice to the employer. BCBSHP may also change the monthly subscription charges when the enrollment falls below the minimum requirement agreed to in the Group Master Application or a significant enrollment change is made through acquisition of a subsidiary (ies), the Employees of which are to be added to this Group. 4.5 Certificate Booklets, Miscellaneous Forms and Notices 1. BCBSHP agrees to provide Employees a Certificate Booklet outlining the benefits. Such Certificate Booklet is an integral part of the Group Master Contract as stated above. 2. The employer agrees to receive, on behalf of its covered Employees, all notices, certificates and identification cards 2 F-1681.770 11/2005 Attachment number 4Page 4 of 10 delivered by BCBSHP and to forward such materials to the persons involved. 3. Any notice shall be sufficient if given to the employer when addressed to its office, as stated in the Group Master Application; if given to BCBSHP when addressed to its office; or if given to an Employee, when addressed to the Employee either his or her address as it appears on his or her records at BCBSHP, or in care of the employer. 4. The Group Master Contract may be modified from time to time. BCBSHP will give the employer sixty (60) days’ notice prior to the Effective Date of any such change. 4.6 Effective Date of Coverage The Effective Date of Coverage is stated on the Group Master Application. The first Contract anniversary date is also stated on the Group Master Application; these two dates do not have to be separated by twelve (12) months. The Group Master Contract, if issued, shall remain in force unless terminated in accordance with the terms of this Contract. The due date shall be the first of each month. 4.7 Time Limit on Certain Defenses Two years after this Contract is issued, no fraudulent statements which might have been included on a Subscriber’s application can be used to void the Contract. Also, after these same two years no claim can be denied because of any fraudulent statement on this application. 4.8 Reinstatement If a Member’s coverage ends in any manner, that Member may be considered for reinstatement. 4.9 Physical Examinations If a Member has submitted a claim and BCBSHP needs more health information, BCBSHP can require a physical examination as often as is reasonably necessary. BCBSHP would pay the cost of any such examination. 4.10 Unreasonable Fees If BCBSHP considers a fee unreasonable, it will determine a Customary Fee. Payment will be based on the Customary Fee. 4.11 Compliance with Given Provisions BCBSHP has the right to waive any part of this Contract for the benefit of the insured. This waiver in no way affects BCBSHP’s right to apply that part of the Contract in paying a future claim. 4.12 Contract Administration 1. For proper adjudication of claims under this Contract, it is agreed, and the Group and its Members consent, that all medical records involving any condition for which a claim is presented will be furnished at BCBSHP’s request, and all privileges with respect to such information are waived. The Group and its Members agree to participate and cooperate with BCBSHP in any pre-admission, concurrent or other medical review activity at any Hospital or medical facility as BCBSHP deems appropriate. This information will be kept confidential to the extent provided by law. Payment will not be provided where sufficient information cannot be obtained to properly adjudicate a claim. 2. Any person or entity having information about an illness or Injury for which benefits are claimed may give BCBSHP at its request, any information (including copies of records) about the illness or Injury. In addition, BCBSHP may with the Member’s written consent give any person or entity similar information at their request if they are providing similar benefits. 3. In making a decision on claims involving payment for services or supplies or days of care that are determined by BCBSHP to be medically unnecessary, BCBSHP reserves the right to obtain advisory opinions from Physician consultants in the appropriate specialty under consideration prior to reaching a decision. On reconsideration of denied Medical Necessity claims, BCBSHP further reserves the right to refer such cases to an appropriate peer review committee for an advisory opinion before BCBSHP renders its final determination on such claims. 4.13 Employer Declaration The employer submits eligibility and group health profile information with the Group Master Application. The employer understands that the information on such forms 3 F-1681.770 11/2005 Attachment number 4Page 5 of 10 will be used by BCBSHP to evaluate the actuarial risk of the Group and any coverage which may be issued can be rescinded for the entire Group if this information is incomplete, misleading or inaccurate. 4.14 Refunds Refunds with respect to a Group’s request, based on circumstances including, but not limited to, retroactive terminations of Employees from the Group, will be limited to a maximum period of three months. Any eligible refunds for the Employee’s coverage will be sent to the Group. 4.15 Unpaid Premium Upon the payment of a claim under this Contract, any Premiums then due and unpaid or covered by any note or written order, may be deducted from that claim payment. 4.16 Applicable Law This Contract is governed by the laws and regulations of the State of Georgia. Nothing in this Contract shall be construed so as to be in violation of any federal or state law or regulation. In the event of state or federally mandated benefits, BCBSHP reserves the right to change the subscription charges (rates) with sixty (60) days’ prior notice. 4.17 Right of Recovery When any payment for Covered Services has been made by BCBSHP in an amount that exceeds the maximum benefits available for such services under the Contract, or whenever payment has been made in error by BCBSHP for Non-Covered Services, BCBSHP shall have the right to recover such payment from the Member or, if applicable, the provider of Covered Services. 4.18 Limitation of Actions No lawsuit may be filed by a Member to recover benefits on a claim made under this Contract unless commenced at least sixty (60) days after filing a claim. A Member cannot file any legal action after three (3) years from the date of filing a claim. 4.19 Right to Audit BCBSHP reserves the right to audit a Group’s Employee roster to verify enrollment participation and eligibility requirements. 4.20 Non-Duplication As a condition precedent to the issuance of this Group Master Contract, the employer agreed that other similar Group coverage for Hospital and/or Physician services, if any, which was in effect, would be cancelled on or prior to the Effective Date of this Group Master Contract, and no other Group coverage providing benefits for Hospital and/or Physician services would be adopted by the employer during the period of this Contract. In the event the employer adopts such other coverage, the employer will terminate this Contract by giving sixty (60) days’ written notice prior to the Effective Date of the new coverage, except when such other coverage will not duplicate benefits already provided by BCBSHP. After notice by the employer, BCBSHP, at its discretion, may waive this restriction. Such waiver will be in writing and must be signed by the President of BCBSHP. 4.21 Licensed Controlled Affiliate The Group on behalf of itself and its Members hereby expressly acknowledges its understanding this policy constitutes a Contract solely between the Group and BCBSHP, which is an independent corporation operating under a license from the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association, an association of independent Blue Cross and Blue Shield Plans (the Association), permitting Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Georgia, Inc. to use the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Service Marks in the state of Georgia, and that BCBSHP is not contracting as the agent of the Association. The Group further acknowledges and agrees that it has not entered into this Contract based upon representations by any person other than BCBSHP and that no person, entity, or organization other than BCBSHP shall be held accountable or liable to the Group for any of BCBSHP’s obligation to the Member created under this Contract. This paragraph shall not create any additional obligations whatsoever on the part of BCBSHP other than those obligations created under other provisions of this agreement. 4 F-1681.770 11/2005 Attachment number 4Page 6 of 10 4.22 Calculation of Coinsurance and Other Subscriber Liability The calculation of Member liability for Covered Services for claims incurred outside of Georgia and processed through the Program typically will be at the lower of the provider’s actual billed charges or the negotiated rate BCBSHP pays the on-site Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield Plan. The calculation of the Member liability on claims for covered health care services incurred outside the geographic area BCBSHP serves and processed through BlueCard will be based on the lower of the provider's billed charges or the negotiated price BCBSHP pays the Host Blue. Often this “negotiated price” will consist of a simple discount. But sometimes it is an estimated final price that factors in expected settlements or other non-claims transactions with a health care provider or with a specific group of providers. The negotiated price may also be a discount from billed charges that reflects average expected savings. The estimated or average price may be adjusted in the future to correct for over-or underestimation of past prices. In addition, statutes require Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield Plans in a small number of states to use a basis for calculating Member liability for Covered Services that does not reflect the entire savings realized on a particular claim. Thus, when your Members received Covered Services in these states, their Member liability for Covered Services will be calculated using these states’ statutory methods. Like all Blue Cross and Blue Shield Licensees, BCBSGA participates in a program called “BlueCard.” Whenever Members access health care services outside the geographic area BCBSHP serves, the claim for those services may be processed through BlueCard and presented to BCBSHP for payment in conformity with network access rules of the BlueCard Policies then in effect (“Policies”). Under BlueCard, when Members receive covered health care services within the geographic area served by an on-site Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield Licensee (“Host Blue”), BCBSHP will remain responsible to the Group for fulfilling BCBSHP’s contract obligations. However, the Host Blue will only be responsible, in accordance with applicable BlueCard Policies, if any, for providing such services as contracting with its Participating Providers, handling all interaction with its Participating Providers, and providing some managed care services. The financial terms of BlueCard are described generally below. 4.23 Liability Calculation Method Per Claim The methods employed by a Host Blue to determine a negotiated price will vary among Host Blues based on the terms of each Host Blue’s provider contracts. The negotiated price paid to a Host Blue by BCBSHP on a claim for health care services processed through BlueCard may represent: (i) the actual price paid on the claim by the Host Blue to the health care provider (“Actual Price”), or (ii) an estimated price, determined by the Host Blue in accordance with BlueCard Policies, based on the Actual Price increased or reduced to reflect aggregate payments expected to result from settlements, withholds, any other contingent payment arrangements and non-claims transactions with all of the Host Blue’s health care providers or one or more particular providers (“Estimated Price”), or (iii) an average price, determined by the Host Blue in accordance with BlueCard Policies, based on a billed charges discount representing the Host Blue’s average savings expected after settlements, withholds, any other contingent payment arrangements and non-claims transactions for all of its providers or for a specified group of providers (“Average Price”). An Average Price may result in greater variation to the Member and to the Group from the Actual Price than would an Estimated Price. Host Blues using either the Estimated Price or an Average Price will, in accordance with BlueCard Policies, prospectively increase or reduce the Estimated Price or Average Price to correct for over- or underestimation of past prices. 5 F-1681.770 11/2005 Attachment number 4Page 7 of 10 However, the amount paid by the Member is a final price and will not be affected by such prospective adjustment. Statutes in a small number of states may require a Host Blue either (1) to use a basis for calculating the Member liability for covered health care services that does not reflect the entire savings realized, or expected to be realized, on a particular claim or (2) to add a surcharge. Should any state statutes mandate liability calculation methods that differ from the negotiated price methodology or require a surcharge, the Host Blue would then calculate the Member liability for any covered health care services consistent with the applicable state statute in effect at the time the Member received those services. 4.24 Return of Overpayments Under BlueCard, recoveries from a Host Blue or from Participating Providers of a Host Blue can arise in several ways, including, but not limited to, anti-fraud and abuse audits, provider/hospital audits, credit balance audits, Utilization Review refunds, and unsolicited refunds. In some cases, the Host Blue will engage third parties to assist in discovery or collection of recovery amounts. The fees of such a third party are netted against the recovery. Recovery amounts, net of fees, if any, will be applied in accordance with applicable BlueCard Policies, which generally require correction on a claim-by-claim or prospective basis. 4.25 Determinations of Covered Health Care Services If BCBSHP, or if the applicable Group, determines that health care services are covered, or the Group’s medical plan covers the health care services, coverage of those health care services cannot be denied based on the Host Blue’s network protocols. However, under BlueCard, the Member cannot be denied coverage of health care services received outside of the geographic area BCBSHP serves if the health care services (i) are covered by the network protocols of the Host Blue; and (ii) are not specifically limited or excluded by the Group’s medical plan document. ARTICLE 5 CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH BENEFITS SHALL BE RENDERED 5.1 Hospital Inpatient Benefits 1. Hospital Inpatient Benefits are available only if a Member is admitted as a bed patient to a Hospital on the order of a licensed Physician. The Member must be under the care of this Physician.

The service which the Member receives at a Hospital is subject to all the rules and regulations of the Hospital selected. Such rules also control admission policies. 3.

Contractholder-- the employer, union or other organization or group contracting to obtain Benefits. Delta Dental PPO Dentist (PPO Dentist) -- a participating Delta Dental Dentist who agrees to accept Delta Dental’s PPO fees as payment in full and comply with Delta Dental’s administrative guidelines. All PPO Dentists are also Premier Dentists. All PPO Dentists must be contracted in the Premier network. Delta Dental PPO Dentist’s Fee (PPO Dentist’s Fee) -- the fee for each Single Procedure that PPO Dentists have contractually agreed to accept as payment in full for treating PPO Enrollees. Delta Dental Premier® Dentist (Premier Dentist) -- a Dentist who contracts with Delta Dental or any other member company of the Delta Dental Plans Association and who agrees to abide by certain administrative guidelines. Not all Premier Dentists are PPO Dentists; however, all Premier Dentists agree to accept Delta Dental’s Maximum Plan Allowance for each Single Procedure as payment in full. Dentist -- a person licensed to practice dentistry when and where services are performed. Dependent Enrollee -- a dependent of a Primary Enrollee who is eligible for Benefits under the Contract. Effective Date -- the date the program starts. This date is given on the booklet cover. Enrollee -- a Primary Enrollee or Dependent Enrollee enrolled to receive Benefits. Maximum Plan Allowance (MPA) -- the maximum amount Delta Dental will reimburse for a covered procedure.

Single Procedure -- a dental procedure that is assigned a separate CDT number. CHOICE OF DENTIST Enrollees may choose a Dentist from Delta Dental’s panel of PPO Dentists and Premier Dentists, or Enrollees may choose a Non-Delta Dental Dentist. A list of Delta Dental Dentists can be obtained by accessing the Delta Dental National Dentist Directory at www.deltadentalins.com. Enrollees are responsible for verifying whether the selected Dentist is a PPO Dentist or a Premier Dentist. Dentists are regularly added to the panel. Additionally, Enrollees should always confirm with the Dentist’s office that a listed Dentist is still a participating PPO Dentist or Premier Dentist. PPO Dentist The PPO program potentially allows the greatest reduction in Enrollees’ out-of-pocket expenses, since this select group of Dentists will provide dental Benefits at a charge which has been contractually agreed upon between Delta Dental and the PPO Dentist. Premier Dentist The Premier Dentist, which include specialists (endodontists, periodontists or oral surgeons), has not agreed to the features of the PPO program; however, you may still receive dental care at a lower cost than if you use a Non-Delta Dental Dentist. Non-Delta Dental Dentist If a Dentist is a Non-Delta Dental Dentist, the amount charged to Enrollees may be above that accepted by the PPO or Premier Dentists. Non-Delta Dental Dentists can balance bill for the difference between the MPA and the Non-Delta Dental Dentist’s Approved Amount. For a Non-Delta Dental Dentist, the Approved Amount is the Dentist’s submitted charge. Additional advantages of using a PPO Dentist or Premier Dentist • The PPO Dentist and Premier Dentist must accept assignment of Benefits, meaning PPO Dentists and Premier Dentists will be paid directly by Delta Dental after satisfaction of the deductible and coinsurance, and the Enrollee does not have to pay all the dental charges while at the dental office and then submit the claim for reimbursement. • The PPO Dentist and Premier Dentist will complete the dental Claim Form and submit it to Delta Dental for reimbursement. INTERNATIONAL SOS You can receive your covered dental care when you are outside of the United States through Delta Dental’s partnership with International SOS Assistance, Inc. (I-SOS). I-SOS provides referrals to 3,200 Dentists or dental clinics in nearly 200 countries worldwide. English-speaking operators are available around the clock to help you find a Dentist.

When you see an I-SOS Dentist, you must pay for your treatment at the time of service and get a detailed receipt from the Dentist. In addition to providing the Dentist’s name and address (including country), this receipt should describe the services performed by the Dentist and indicate the tooth or teeth that were treated. It should also indicate whether the Dentist’s charges were billed in U.S. dollars or another currency. GA-PPO-EOC(2007) 11-XXXX 6 Once we receive your claim, we will reimburse you subject to the terms and conditions of your Delta Dental coverage. Reimbursement is based on the out-of-network benefit provided through your group plan. As with any dental plan, this reimbursement may not cover the entire cost of the treatment rendered. WHO IS ELIGIBLE? Eligibility for Enrollment You will become eligible to receive Benefits on the date stated in the Contract after completing any eligibility periods required by the Contractholder as stated in the Contract. If your dependents are covered, they will be eligible when you are or as soon as they become dependents. Dependents are your: • Lawful spouse; • Unmarried dependent children from birth to their 19th birthday, or 26th birthday, if a full-time student in an accredited school. “Children” includes natural children, step-children, adopted children, and foster children. The child must be dependent on you for support. Newborn infants are eligible from the moment of birth. Adopted children are eligible from the date of placement for adoption or final decree of adoption, whichever occurs first. • An unmarried child 19 years or older may continue to be eligible as a dependent if the child is not self-supporting because of mental incapacity or physical handicap that began before age 19 and the child is mostly dependent on the Primary Enrollee for support and maintenance. Proof of these facts must be given to Delta Dental or Contractholder within 31 days if it is requested. Proof will not be required more than once a year after the child is 21. Dependents in military service are not eligible. Enrollment Requirements If you are paying all or a portion of premiums for yourself or your dependents then: • You must enroll within 31 days after the date you become eligible or during an Open Enrollment Period. • All dependents must be enrolled within 31 days after they become eligible or during an Open Enrollment Period. • If you elect dependent coverage, you must enroll all of your Dependent Enrollees for coverage. • [You must pay Premiums in the manner elected by the Contractholder and approved by Delta Dental. If coverage is dropped other than during an Open Enrollment Period or because of a Qualifying Status Change, you may not re-enroll except during an Open Enrollment Period.] [You must pay Premiums in the manner elected by the Contractholder and approved by Delta Dental. Coverage cannot be dropped or changed other than during an Open Enrollment Period or because of a Qualifying Status Change.] • [If you pay Premiums for Dependent Enrollees in the manner elected by the Contractholder and approved by Delta Dental until your dependents are no longer eligible or until you choose to drop dependent coverage and if coverage is dropped other than during an Open Enrollment Period, your dependents may not be re-enrolled at any time, unless there is a court order requiring dependent coverage.] [If you pay Premiums for Dependent Enrollees in the manner elected by the Contractholder and approved by Delta Dental until your dependents are no longer eligible or until you choose to drop dependent coverage, coverage may not be changed at any time other than during an Open Enrollment Period or if there is a Qualifying Status Change.] • If both you and your spouse are eligible persons, one of you may enroll as a Dependent Enrollee of the other. Dependent children may enroll as Dependent Enrollees of only one Primary Enrollee. • A child who is eligible as a Primary Enrollee and a dependent can be insured under the Contract as a Primary Enrollee or as a Dependent Enrollee but not both at the same time. Loss of Eligibility Your coverage ends on the last day of the month you stop working for the Contractholder or immediately when this program ends. Your dependents’ coverage ends when your coverage ends or on the date when dependent status is lost. Continuation of Benefits Delta Dental will not pay for Benefits for any services received after your coverage ends. However, Delta Dental will pay for a Single Procedure incurred when the person was covered if such procedure is completed within 31 days of the date coverage ends. A dental service is incurred as follows: • for an appliance (or change to an appliance), at the time the impression is made; • for a crown, bridge or cast restoration, at the time the tooth or teeth are prepared; • for root canal therapy, at the time the pulp chamber is opened; and GA-PPO-EOC(2007) 11-XXXX 7 • for all other dental services, at the time the service is performed or the supply furnished. Strike, Lay-off and Leave of Absence You and your dependents will not be covered for any dental services received while you are on strike, lay-off, an approved leave of absence or leave of absence, other than as required under the Family & Medical Leave Act of 1993*. Benefits for you and your Dependent Enrollees will resume as follows: • if coverage is reactivated in the same Calendar Year, deductibles and maximums will resume as if you were never gone; or • if coverage is reactivated in a different Calendar Year, new deductibles and maximums will apply. Coverage will resume the first day of the month after you return to work, provided you submit to Delta Dental an enrollment card requesting that coverage be reactivated. *You and your dependents’ coverage is not affected if you take a leave of absence allowed under the Family & Medical Leave Act of 1993. If you are currently paying any part of your premium, you may choose to continue coverage. If you do not continue coverage during the leave, you can resume that coverage on your return to active work as if no interruption occurred. Important: The Family & Medical Leave Act does not apply to all companies, only those that meet certain size guidelines. See your Human Resources Department for complete information. If you are rehired within the same Calendar Year, deductibles and maximums will resume as if you were never gone. Continued Coverage Under USERRA As required under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA), if you are covered by the Contract on the date your USERRA leave of absence begins, you may continue dental coverage for yourself and any covered dependents. Continuation of coverage under USERRA may not extend beyond the earlier of: 24 months beginning on the date the leave of absence begins or the date you fail to return to work within the time required by USERRA. For USERRA leave that extends beyond 31 days, the premium for continuation of coverage will be the same as for COBRA coverage. Continuation of Coverage Under (COBRA) COBRA (the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985) provides a way for employees and their Dependent Enrollees who lose employer-sponsored group health plan coverage to continue coverage for a period of time. COBRA does not apply to all companies, only those that meet certain size guidelines. See your Human Resources Department for complete information. DEDUCTIBLE Your dental plan features a deductible. This is an amount you must pay out-of-pocket before Benefits are paid. The deductible amounts are listed on the Group Highlights page. Only the Dentist’s fees you pay for covered Benefits will count toward the deductible, but you do not have to pay a deductible for Diagnostic and Preventive Benefits or Orthodontic Benefits. MAXIMUM AMOUNT The Maximum Amount payable is shown on the Group Highlights page. There may be maximums on a yearly basis, a per services basis, or a lifetime basis. However, Orthodontic Benefits, if provided, will end with the next payment due although the maximum has not been reached if you lose coverage, if treatment is stopped, or if the Contract with your employer is canceled. GA-PPO-EOC(2007) 11-XXXX 8 BENEFITS, LIMITATIONS & EXCLUSIONS Delta Dental will pay the Benefits for the types of dental services as described below. Delta Dental will pay Benefits only for covered services. These services must be provided by a Dentist and must be necessary and customary under generally accepted dental practice standards. Delta Dental may use dental consultants to review treatment plans, diagnostic materials and/or prescribed treatments to determine generally accepted dental practices. If you receive dental services from a Dentist outside the state of Georgia, the Dentist will be reimbursed according to Delta Dental’s network payment provisions for said state according to the terms of this Contract. PPO, Premier and Non-Delta Dental Dentists will be reimbursed at least the same amount. If a primary dental procedure includes component procedures that are performed at the same time as the primary procedure, the component procedures are considered to be part of the primary procedure for purposes of determining the benefit payable under the Contract. Even if the Dentist bills separately for the primary procedure and each of its component parts, the total benefit payable for all related charges will be limited to the maximum benefit payable for the primary procedure. Enrollee Coinsurance Delta Dental’s provision of Benefits is limited to the applicable percentage of Dentist’s fees specified in the Group Highlights. You are responsible for paying the remaining applicable percentage of any such fees, known as the “Enrollee Coinsurance”. Your group has chosen to require Enrollee Coinsurances under this program as a method of sharing the costs of providing dental Benefits between Contractholder and Enrollees. If the Dentist discounts, waives or rebates any portion of the Enrollee Coinsurance to the Enrollee, Delta Dental will be obligated to provide as Benefits only the applicable percentages of the Dentist’s fees reduced by the amount of such fees that is discounted, waived or rebated. BENEFITS Delta Dental will pay or otherwise discharge the percentage of Contract Allowance shown on the Group Highlights page for covered services. Diagnostic and Preventive Benefits: • Diagnostic: procedures to assist the Dentist in choosing required dental treatment. • Preventive: prophylaxis (cleaning, periodontal cleaning in the presence of gingival inflammation is considered to be periodontal (a Major Benefit) for payment purposes), topical application of fluoride solutions, space maintainers and bite-wing x-rays.

Major Benefits: • Oral Surgery: extractions and other surgical procedures (including pre-and post-operative care). • General Anesthesia: when administered by a Dentist for a covered oral surgery procedure. • Endodontics: treatment of the tooth pulp. • Periodontics: treatment of gums and bones supporting teeth. • Denture Repairs: repair to partial or complete dentures including rebase procedures and relining. GA-PPO-EOC(2007) 11-XXXX 9 • Crowns, Inlays/Onlays and Cast Restorations: treatment of carious lesions (visible decay of the hard tooth structure) when teeth cannot be restored with amalgam, synthetic porcelain or plastic restorations. • Prosthodontics: procedures for construction or repair of fixed bridges, partial or completed denture. Orthodontic Benefits: Procedures performed by a Dentist, involving the use of an active orthodontic appliance and post-treatment retentive appliances for treatment of malalignment of teeth and/or jaws which significantly interferes with their functions. Note on additional benefits during pregnancy - When an Enrollee is pregnant, Delta Dental will pay for additional services to help improve the oral health of the Enrollee during the pregnancy. The additional services each 12 month period while the Enrollee is covered under this Contract include: one (1) additional oral exam and either one (1) additional routine cleaning or one (1) additional periodontal scaling and root planing per quadrant. Written confirmation of the pregnancy must be provided by the Enrollee or her dentist when the claim is submitted. LIMITATIONS Limitations on Diagnostic and Preventive Benefits: • Routine oral examinations and cleanings (including periodontal cleanings) are provided no more than twice in any 12 month period while the person is an Enrollee under any Delta Dental program or dental care program provided by the Contractholder. Note that periodontal cleanings are covered as a Major Benefit and routine cleanings are covered as a Diagnostic and Preventive Benefit. See note on additional benefits during pregnancy. • Bitewing x-rays are provided once each 12 months for you and your spouse and twice in a 12 month period for your Dependent Child Enrollees. • Topical application of fluoride solutions is limited to Enrollees under age 19. • Space maintainers are limited to the initial appliance only and to Enrollees under age 14. Limitations on Basic Benefits: • Full-mouth x-rays or panoramic x-rays will be provided by the Dentist when required, but Delta Dental will only pay for these services once every five (5) years under any Delta Dental program. • Sealants are limited as follows: (1) to permanent first molars through age eight (8) and to permanent second molars through age 15 if they are without cavities or restorations on the occlusal surface. (2) Sealants do not include repair or replacement of a sealant on any tooth within two (2) years of its application. • Delta Dental will not pay to replace an amalgam, synthetic porcelain or plastic restorations (fillings) or prefabricated stainless steel restorations within 24 months of treatment if the service is provided by the same Dentist. • Delta Dental limits payment for stainless steel crowns under this section to services on baby teeth. However, after consultant’s review, Delta Dental may allow stainless steel crowns on permanent teeth as a Major Benefit. Limitations on Major Benefits: • Benefits for periodontal scaling and root planing in the same quadrant are limited to once in every 24-month period. See note on additional benefits during pregnancy. • Delta Dental will not pay to replace any crowns, inlays/onlays, or cast restorations which the Enrollee received in the previous five (5) years under any Delta Dental program or any program of the Contractholder. • Prosthodontic appliances and/or implants that were provided under any Delta Dental program will be replaced only after five (5) years have passed, except when Delta Dental determines that there is such extensive loss of remaining teeth or change in supporting tissue that the existing fixed bridge or denture cannot be made satisfactory. Replacement of a prosthodontic appliance and/or implant supported prosthesis not provided under a Delta Dental program will be made if Delta Dental determines it is unsatisfactory and cannot be made satisfactory. Delta Dental will pay for the removal of an implant once for each tooth during the Enrollee’s lifetime. • [The initial installation of a prosthodontic appliance and/or implants is not a Benefit unless the prosthodontic appliance and/or implant, bridge or denture is made necessary by natural, permanent teeth extraction occurring during a time the Enrollee was eligible [under a Delta Dental program / or Contractholder’s prior plan].] • Delta Dental limits payment for dentures to a standard partial or denture (coinsurances apply). A standard denture means a removable appliance to replace missing natural, permanent teeth that is made from acceptable materials by conventional means. GA-PPO-EOC(2007) 11-XXXX 10 Limitations on Orthodontic Benefits: • Payment for orthodontics is provided monthly. • Orthodontic Benefits begin with the first payment due after the person becomes covered, if treatment has begun. • Benefits end with the next payment due after loss of coverage. Benefits end immediately if treatment stops or if the Contract is terminated, whichever occurs first. • Benefits are not paid to repair or replace any Orthodontic appliance furnished, in whole or in part, under this program. • [Orthodontic Benefits are limited to dependent child enrollees under age 19 [or 26 if full-time student]. • X-rays or extractions are not subject to the Orthodontic maximum. • Surgical procedures are not subject to the Orthodontic maximum. Limitations on All Benefits - Optional Services that are more expensive than the form of treatment customarily provided under accepted dental practice standards are called “Optional Services”. Optional Services also include the use of specialized techniques instead of standard procedures. For example: • a crown where a filling would restore the tooth; • a precision denture/partial where a standard denture/partial could be used; • an inlay/onlay instead of an amalgam restoration; • a composite restoration instead of an amalgam restoration on posterior teeth. If you receive Optional Services, Benefits will be based on the lower cost of the customary service or standard practice instead of the higher cost of the Optional Service. You will be responsible for the difference between the higher cost of the Optional Service and the lower cost of the customary service or standard procedure. EXCLUSIONS Delta Dental does not pay Benefits for: • treatment of injuries or illness covered under workers’ compensation or employers’ liability laws; services received without cost from any federal, state or local agency, unless this exclusion is prohibited by law. • cosmetic surgery or dentistry for purely cosmetic reasons. • services for congenital (hereditary) or developmental (following birth) malformations, including but not limited to cleft palate, upper and lower jaw malformations, enamel hypoplasia (lack of development), fluorosis (a type of discoloration of the teeth) and anodontia (congenitally missing teeth), except those services provided to newborn or adopted children (under the age of 18) for medically diagnosed congenital defect or abnormalities. • treatment to restore tooth structure lost from wear, erosion or abrasion; treatment to rebuild or maintain chewing surfaces due to teeth out of alignment or occlusion; or treatment to stabilize the teeth. Examples include but are not limited to: equilibration, periodontal splinting or occlusal adjustment. • any Single Procedure started prior to the date the person became covered for such services under this program. • prescribed drugs, medication, pain killers or experimental procedures. • charges by any hospital or other surgical or treatment facility and any additional fees charged by the Dentist for treatment in any such facility. • charges for anesthesia, other than by a licensed Dentist for administering general anesthesia in connection with covered oral surgery services. • extraoral grafts (grafting of tissues from outside the mouth to oral tissues). • treatment performed by someone other than a Dentist or a person who by law may work under a Dentist’s direct supervision. • charges incurred for oral hygiene instruction, a plaque control program, dietary instruction, x-ray duplications, cancer screening or broken appointments. GA-PPO-EOC(2007) 11-XXXX 11 • services or supplies covered by any other health plan of the Contractholder. • treatment rendered by a person who ordinarily resides in your household or who is related to you (or to your spouse) by blood, marriage or legal adoption. • [the initial placement of any prosthodontic appliance, unless such placement is needed to replace one or more natural, permanent teeth extracted while the Enrollee is covered under this Contract or was covered under [any dental care program with Delta Dental / the Contractholder’s prior dental plan]. The extraction of a third molar (wisdom tooth) will not qualify under the above. Any such Prosthodontic appliance or implant must include the replacement of the extracted tooth or teeth.] • services for Orthodontic treatment (treatment of malocclusion of teeth and/or jaws) except as provided under the Orthodontic Benefits section if applicable. • services for any disturbances of the temporomandibular (jaw) joints. COORDINATION OF BENEFITS Delta Dental matches the Benefits under this program with your Benefits under any other group prepaid program or Benefit plan including another Delta Dental plan. (This does not apply to a blanket school accident policy). Benefits under one of the programs may be reduced so that your combined coverage does not exceed the Dentist’s fees for the covered services. If this is the “primary” program, Delta Dental will not reduce Benefits, but if the other program is the primary one, Delta Dental will reduce Benefits otherwise payable under this program. The reduction will be the amount paid for or provided under the terms of the primary program for services covered under the Contract (see Benefits and Limitations). • How does Delta Dental determine which Plan is the “primary” program? (1) If the other Plan is not primarily a dental plan, this Plan is primary. (2) If the other Plan is a dental program, the following rules are applied: a) the Plan covering the Enrollee as an employee is primary over a Plan covering the Enrollee as a dependent. b) the Plan covering the Enrollee as an employee is primary over a Plan which covers the insured person as a dependent; except that: if the insured person is also a Medicare beneficiary, and as a result of the rule established by Title XVIII of the Social Security Act and implementing regulations, Medicare is: i) secondary to the Plan covering the insured person as a dependent and ii) primary to the Plan covering the insured person as other than a dependent (e.g. a retired employee), then the benefits of the Plan covering the insured person as a dependent are determined before those of the Plan covering that insured person as other than a dependent. (3) Except as stated below, when this Plan and another Plan cover the same child as a dependent of different persons, called parents: a) The benefits of the Plan of the parent whose birthday falls earlier in a year are determined before those of the Plan of the parent whose birthday falls later in that year, but b) If both parents have the same birthday, the benefits of the Plan which covered one parent longer are determined before those of the Plan which covered the other parent for a shorter period of time. c) However, if the other Plan does not have the birthday rule described above, but instead has a rule based on the gender of the parent, and if, as a result, the plans do not agree on the order of benefits, the rule in the other Plan will determine the order of benefits. d) In the case of a dependent child of legally separated or divorced parents, the Plan covering the Enrollee as a dependent of the parent with legal custody, or as a dependent of the custodial parent’s spouse (i.e. step-parent) will be primary over the Plan covering the Enrollee as a dependent of the parent without legal custody. If there is a court decree which would otherwise establish financial responsibility for the health care expenses with respect to the child, the benefits of a Plan which covers the child as a dependent of the parent with such financial responsibility will be determined before the benefits of any other policy which covers the child as a dependent child. If the specific terms of a court decree state that the parents will share joint custody, without stating that one of the parents is responsible for the health care expenses of the child, the Plans covering the child will follow the order of benefit determination rules outlined in (3) a) through (3) c). GA-PPO-EOC(2007) 11-XXXX 12 (4) The benefits of a Plan which covers an insured person as an employee who is neither laid off nor retired are determined before those of a Plan which covers that insured person as a laid off or retired employee. The same would hold true if an insured person is a dependent of a person covered as a retiree and an employee. If the other Plan does not have this rule, and if, as a result, the Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, this rule is ignored. (5) If an insured person whose coverage is provided under a right of continuation pursuant to federal or state law also is covered under another Plan, the following will be the order of benefit determination: a) First, the benefits of a Plan covering the insured person as an employee or Primary Enrollee (or as that insured person’s dependent); b) Second, the benefits under the continuation coverage. If the other Plan does not have the rule described above, and if, as a result, the Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, this rule is ignored. (6) If none of the above rules determine the order of benefits, the benefits of the plan which covered an employee longer are determined before those of the Plan which covered that insured person for the shorter term. AUTOMATED INFORMATION LINE You may access Delta Dental’s automated information line on a regular business day to obtain Enrollee eligibility and Benefits; group Benefit or claim status information or to speak to a Customer Service Representative for assistance. (800) 521-2651 CLAIMS Claims for Benefits must be filed on a standard Claim Form which you or your Dentist may obtain from: Delta Dental Insurance Company P.O. Box #1809 Alpharetta, Georgia 30023 (800) 521-2651 www.deltadentalins.com PRE-TREATMENT ESTIMATE A Dentist may file a Claim Form before treatment, showing the services to be provided to an Enrollee. Delta Dental will predetermine the amount of Benefits payable under the Contract for the listed services. Benefits will be processed according to the terms of the Contract when the treatment is performed. Pre-Treatment Estimates are valid for 60 days, or until an earlier occurrence of any one of the following events: • the date the Contract terminates; • the date the Enrollee’s coverage ends; or • the date the PPO Dentist’s or Premier Dentist’s agreement with Delta Dental ends. CLAIMS APPEAL Delta Dental will notify the Primary Enrollee if Benefits are denied for services submitted on a Claim Form, in whole or in part, stating the reason(s) for denial. The Enrollee has 180 days after receiving a notice of denial to appeal it by writing to Delta Dental giving reasons why the denial was wrong. The Enrollee may also ask Delta Dental to examine any additional information he/she includes that may support his/her appeal. Delta Dental will make a full and fair review within 60 days after Delta Dental receives the request for appeal. Delta Dental may ask for more documents if needed. In no event will the decision take longer than 60 days. The review will take into account all comments, documents, records or other information, regardless of whether such information was submitted or considered initially. If the review is of a denial based in whole or in part on lack of dental necessity, experimental treatment or clinical judgment in applying the terms of the Contract, Delta Dental shall consult with a Dentist who has appropriate training and experience. The review will be conducted for Delta Dental by a person who is neither the individual who made the claim denial that is subject to the review, nor the subordinate of such individual. The identity of such dental consultant is available upon request whether or not the advice was relied upon. GA-PPO-EOC(2007) 11-XXXX 13 If the Enrollee believes he/she needs further review of said claim, he/she may contact his/her state insurance regulatory agency if applicable or bring a civil action under section 502(a) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) if the Contract is subject to ERISA. CANCELLATION OF CONTRACT Delta Dental may cancel the Contract only: • on an anniversary of the Effective Date upon 60 days written notice; or • if your employer does not pay the monthly premiums upon 31 days written notice; or • if your employer does not provide a list of who is eligible upon 60 days written notice; or • if less than the minimum number of Primary Enrollees required under the Contract are reported eligible for three (3) months or more, upon 15 days written notice. PROVISIONS REQUIRED BY LAW Clinical Examination Before approving a claim, Delta Dental will be entitled to receive, to such extent as may be lawful, from any attending or examining Dentist, or from hospitals in which a Dentist’s care is provided, such information and records relating to attendance to or examination of, or treatment provided to, an Enrollee as may be required to administer the claim, or that an Enrollee be examined by a dental consultant retained by Delta Dental, at its expense, in or near his community or residence. Delta Dental will in every case hold such information and records confidential. Notice of Claim Forms Delta Dental will give any Dentist or Enrollee, on request, a standard Claim Form to make claim for Benefits. To make a claim, the form must be completed and signed by the Dentist who performed the services and by the Enrollee (or the parent or guardian if the Enrollee is a minor) and submitted to Delta Dental. If the form is not furnished by Delta Dental within 10 days after requested by a Dentist or Enrollee, the requirements for proof of loss set forth in the next paragraph will be deemed to have been complied with upon the submission to Delta Dental, within the time established in said paragraph for filing proofs of loss, of written proof covering the occurrence, the character and the extent of the loss for which claim is made. Written Notice of Claim/Proof of Loss Delta Dental must be given written proof of loss within 90 days after the date of the loss. If it is not reasonably possible to give written proof in the time required, the claim will not be reduced or denied solely for this reason, provided proof is filed as soon as reasonably possible. In any event, proof of loss must be given no later than one year from such time (unless the claimant was legally incapacitated). All written proof of loss must be given to Delta Dental within 6 months of the termination of the Contract. Time of Payment Indemnities payable under the Contract for any loss other than loss for which the Contract provides any periodic payment will be processed: • within 15 working days after receipt of due written proof of such loss. If additional information is requested to process the claim, Delta Dental will notify the Primary Enrollee and the Dentist within 15 working days of written proof of loss. Any undisputed portion of the claim will be processed within the 15 working days; and • within 15 working days after the requested information is received for any disputed portion of the claim. Claims not processed as stated above are subject to a charge of 18 percent interest per annum. Subject to due written proof of loss, all accrued indemnities for loss for which the Contract provides periodic payment will be paid monthly and any balance remaining upon the termination of liability will be paid immediately upon receipt of due written proof. To Whom Benefits are Paid PPO Dentists and Premier Dentists will be paid directly. Any other payments provided by the Contract will be made to the Primary Enrollee, unless the Enrollee requests when filing a proof of loss claim that the payment be made directly to the Dentist providing the services. All Benefits not paid to the Dentist will be payable to the Enrollee, or to his estate, except that if the person is a minor or otherwise not competent to give a valid release, Benefits may be payable to the parent, guardian or other person actually supporting him. GA-PPO-EOC(2007) 11-XXXX 14 Misstatements on Application; Effect In the absence of fraud or intentional misrepresentation of material fact in applying for or procuring coverage under the Contract, all statements made by you or the Contractholder will be deemed representations and not warranties. No such statement will be used in defense to a claim under the Contract, unless it is contained in a written application. Any misrepresentation, omission, concealment of fact or incorrect statement which is material to the acceptance of risk may prevent recovery if, had the true facts been known to Delta Dental, Delta Dental would not in good faith have issued the contract at the same premium rate. If any misstatement would materially affect the rates, Delta Dental reserves the right to adjust the premium to reflect your actual circumstances at enrollment. Legal Actions No action at law or in equity will be brought to recover on the Contract prior to expiration of 60 days after proof of loss has been filed in accordance with requirements of the Contract, nor will an action be brought at all unless brought within three (3) years from expiration of the time within which proof of loss is required by the Contract.

This Contract will continue in force during this period; if the Premium remains unpaid at the end of the grace period, this Contract may be terminated by Delta Dental in accordance with the notice requirements of Section 8.01. 3.03 If this Contract is terminated before the end of a Contract Term, Contractholder will pay additional charges in accordance with Article 8. 3.04 Delta Dental will not be responsible or liable for any incorrect, obsolete or unreadable data or information supplied to Delta Dental including, but not limited to, eligibility and enrollment information. 3.05 Delta Dental may change the rate of monthly Premium whenever the Contract is amended as stated in Article 3.06, or whenever the Contractholder requests a change in benefits. Any change in Premium shall not be effective during a Contract Term unless Contractholder and Delta Dental agree in writing, except as provided in Articles 3.06 and 3.07. 3.06 Premiums are based on the number of covered employees at the beginning of each Contract Term. If the Contractholder reports a 15 percent addition or reduction in the number of covered Primary Enrollees for three (3) months in a row, Delta Dental may propose a choice of changes in Premiums or Benefits to remedy the increase in cost per person which may result from the difference in the number of enrolled employees.

Additional eligibility periods, if any, for specific services are shown in Appendix A. If an Enrollee receives dental services from a Dentist outside the state of Georgia, the Dentists will be reimbursed according to Delta Dental’s network payment provisions for said state according to the terms of this Contract. PPO Dentists, Premier Dentists and Non-Delta Dental Dentists will be reimbursed at the same amount. If a primary dental procedure includes component procedures that are performed at the same time as the primary procedure, the component procedures are considered to be part of the primary procedure for purposes of determining the benefit payable under this Contract. Even if the Dentist bills separately for the primary procedure and each of its component parts, the total benefit payable for all related charges will be limited to the maximum benefit payable for the primary procedure. GA-PPO-C(2007) 10 11-XXXX 4.02 No change in Benefits will become effective during a Contract Term unless Contractholder and Delta Dental agree in writing. 4.03 Enrollee Coinsurance Delta Dental’s provision of Benefits is limited to the applicable percentage of Dentist’s fees or allowances specified in Appendix A. The Enrollee is responsible for paying the balance of any such fee or allowance, known as the “Enrollee Coinsurance”. Contractholder has chosen to require Enrollee Coinsurances under this program as a method of sharing the costs of providing dental Benefits between Contractholder and Enrollees. If the Dentist discounts, waives or rebates any portion of the Enrollee Coinsurance to the Enrollee, Delta Dental will be obligated to provide as Benefits only the applicable percentages of the Dentist’s fees or allowances reduced by the amount of such fees or allowances that is discounted, waived or rebated. 4.04 Benefits Delta Dental will pay or otherwise discharge the percentage shown in Appendix A of the Contract Allowance for the following services: • Diagnostic and Preventive Benefits (1) Diagnostic: procedures to aid the Dentist in choosing required dental treatment.

For example: • a crown where a filling would restore the tooth; • a precision denture/partial where a standard denture/partial could be used; • an inlay/onlay instead of an amalgam restoration; or • a composite restoration instead of an amalgam restoration on posterior teeth. If an Enrollee receives Optional Services, Benefits will be based on the lower cost of the customary service or standard practice instead of the higher cost of the Optional Service. The Enrollee will be responsible for the difference between the higher cost of the Optional Service and the lower cost of the customary service or standard procedure. 4.06 Limitations • Limitations on Diagnostic and Preventive Benefits: (1) Delta Dental will pay for routine oral examinations and cleanings (including periodontal cleanings) no more than twice in any 12 month period while the person is an Enrollee under any Delta Dental program or dental care program provided by the Contractholder.

(3) Delta Dental will not pay to replace an amalgam, synthetic porcelain or plastic restorations (fillings) or prefabricated stainless steel restorations within 24 months of treatment if the service is provided by the same Dentist. (4) Delta Dental limits payment for stainless steel crowns under this section to services on baby teeth. However, after consultant’s review, Delta Dental may allow stainless steel crowns on permanent teeth as a Major Benefit.] • Limitations on Major Benefits: (1) Benefits for periodontal scaling and root planing in the same quadrant are limited to once in every 24-month period. See note on additional benefits during pregnancy. (1) Delta Dental will not pay to replace any crowns, inlays/onlays, or cast restorations which the Enrollee received in the previous five (5) years under any Delta Dental program or any program of the Contractholder. (2) Prosthodontic appliances that were provided under any Delta Dental program will be replaced only after five (5) years have passed, except when Delta Dental determines that there is such extensive loss of remaining teeth or change in supporting tissue that the existing fixed bridge or denture cannot be made satisfactory. GA-PPO-C(2007) 12 11-XXXX Replacement of a prosthodontic appliance and/or implant supported prosthesis not provided under a Delta Dental program will be made if Delta Dental determines it is unsatisfactory and cannot be made satisfactory. (3) The initial installation of a prosthodontic appliance is not a Benefit unless the prosthodontic appliance, bridge or denture is made necessary by natural, permanent teeth extraction occurring during a time the Enrollee was eligible under the Contractholder’s prior plan. (4) Delta Dental limits payment for dentures to a standard partial or denture (coinsurances apply). A standard denture means a removable appliance to replace missing natural, permanent teeth that is made from acceptable materials by conventional means. (5) Delta Dental will not pay for implants (artificial teeth implanted into or on bone or gums), their removal or other associated procedures, but Delta Dental will credit the cost of a crown, or standard complete or partial denture that would have been allowed under this dental plan toward the cost of an implant and related services (coinsurances apply). • Limitations on Orthodontic Benefits: (1) The maximum amount payable for each Enrollee during the Enrollee’s lifetime is shown in Appendix A. (2) Payment for Orthodontics is provided monthly. (3) Orthodontic Benefits begin with the first payment due after the person becomes covered, if treatment has begun. (4) Benefits are not paid to repair or replace any orthodontic appliance received under this program. (5) X-rays or extractions are not subject to the Orthodontic maximum.

Any such denture or fixed bridge must include the replacement of the extracted tooth or teeth.] • services for any disturbance of the temporomandibular (jaw) joints or associated musculature, nerves and other tissues (MPD-TMJ). ARTICLE 5 DEDUCTIBLE, MAXIMUM, & COORDINATION OF BENEFITS 5.01 Deductible As shown on Appendix A, Delta Dental will not pay Benefits for the deductible amount of the Dentist’s Contract Allowance for services received each Calendar Year by an Enrollee. The annual maximum deductible per family, if any, is shown in Appendix A. Only fees an Enrollee pays for services that are described under Article 4 will count toward the deductible. 5.02 Maximum Delta Dental will pay the maximum amount(s) shown in Appendix A per Enrollee for all Benefits under this Contract. 5.03 Coordination of Benefits Delta Dental coordinates the Benefits under this Contract with an Enrollee’s benefits under any other group pre-paid plan or insurance policy designed to fully integrate with other policies. Benefits under one of the plans may be reduced so that combined coverage does not exceed the Dentist’s total fees for covered services. If this is the “primary” plan, Delta Dental will not reduce Benefits, but if the other plan is the primary one, Delta Dental will reduce Benefits otherwise payable under this Contract. The reduction will be the amount paid for or provided under the terms of the primary plan for covered services under Article 4. Order of Benefit Determination Rules: The following rules determine which plan is the “primary” plan: • If the other Plan is not primarily a dental plan, this Plan is primary. • If the other Plan is a dental plan, the following rules are applied: (1) The Plan covering the Enrollee as an employee is primary over a Plan covering the Enrollee as a dependent. (2) The Plan covering the Enrollee as an employee is primary over a Plan which covers the insured person as a dependent; except that: if the insured person is also a Medicare beneficiary, and as a result of the rule established by Title XVIII of the Social Security Act and implementing regulations, Medicare is: a) Secondary to the Plan covering the insured person as a dependent and b) Primary to the Plan covering the insured person as other than a dependent (e.g. a retired employee), then the benefits of the Plan covering the insured person as a dependent are determined before those of the Plan covering that insured person as other than a dependent. (3) Except as stated in paragraph (4), when this Plan and another Plan cover the same child as a dependent of different persons, called parents: a) The benefits of the Plan of the parent whose birthday falls earlier in a year are determined before those of the Plan of the parent whose birthday falls later in that year, but b) If both parents have the same birthday, the benefits of the Plan which covered one parent longer are determined before those of the Plan which covered the other parent for a shorter period of time. GA-PPO-C(2007) 14 11-XXXX (4) In the case of a dependent child of legally separated or divorced parents, the Plan covering the Enrollee as a dependent of the parent with legal custody, or as a dependent of the custodial parent’s spouse (i.e. step-parent) will be primary over the Plan covering the Enrollee as a dependent of the parent without legal custody. If there is a court decree which would otherwise establish financial responsibility for the health care expenses with respect to the child, the benefits of a plan which covers the child as a dependent of the parent with such financial responsibility will be determined before the benefits of any other policy which covers the child as a dependent child. (5) If the specific terms of a court decree state that the parents will share joint custody, without stating that one of the parents is responsible for the health care expenses of the child, the Plans covering the child will follow the order of benefit determination rules outlined in paragraph (3). (6) The benefits of a Plan which covers an insured person as an employee who is neither laid off nor retired are determined before those of a Plan which covers that insured person as a laid off or retired employee. The same would hold true if an insured person is a dependent of a person covered as a retiree and an employee. If the other Plan does not have this rule, and if, as a result, the Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, this Rule (6) is ignored. (7) If an insured person whose coverage is provided under a right of continuation pursuant to federal or state law also is covered under another plan, the following will be the order of benefit determination: a) First, the benefits of a Plan covering the insured person as an employee or Primary Enrollee (or as that insured person’s dependent); b) Second, the benefits under the continuation coverage. If the other Plan does not have the rule described above, and if, as a result, the Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, this rule is ignored. (8) If none of the above rules determine the order of benefits, the benefits of the Plan which covered an employee longer are determined before those of the Plan which covered that insured person for the shorter term. ARTICLE 6 CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH BENEFITS WILL BE PROVIDED 6.01 Choice of a Dentist Enrollees may choose a Dentist from Delta Dental’s panel of PPO Dentists and Premier Dentists, or Enrollees may choose a Non-Delta Dental Dentist. A list of Delta Dental Dentists can be obtained by accessing the Delta Dental National Dentist Directory at www.deltadentalins.com. Enrollees are responsible for verifying whether the selected Dentist is a PPO Dentist or a Premier Dentist. Dentists are regularly added to the panel. Additionally, Enrollees should always confirm with the Dentist’s office that a listed Dentist is still a participating PPO Dentist or Premier Dentist. PPO Dentist The PPO program potentially allows the greatest reduction in Enrollees’ out-of-pocket expenses, since this select group of Dentists will provide dental Benefits at a charge which has been contractually agreed upon between Delta Dental and the PPO Dentist. Premier Dentist The Premier Dentist, which include specialists (endodontists, periodontists or oral surgeons), has not agreed to the features of the PPO program; however, you may still receive dental care at a lower cost than if you use a Non-Delta Dental Dentist. Non-Delta Dental Dentist If a Dentist is a Non-Delta Dental Dentist, the amount charged to Enrollees may be above that accepted by the PPO or Premier Dentists. Non-Delta Dental Dentists can balance bill for the difference between the MPA and the Non-Delta Dental Dentist’s Approved Amount. For a Non-Delta Dental Dentist, the Approved Amount is the Dentist’s submitted charge. Additional advantages of using a PPO Dentist or Premier Dentist • The PPO Dentist and Premier Dentist must accept assignment of Benefits, meaning PPO Dentists and Premier Dentists will be paid directly by Delta Dental after satisfaction of the deductible and coinsurance, and the Enrollee does not have to pay all the dental charges while at the dental office and then submit the claim for reimbursement. • The PPO Dentist and Premier Dentist will complete the dental Claim Form and submit it to Delta Dental for reimbursement.] GA-PPO-C(2007) 15 11-XXXX 6.02 International SOS Enrollees can obtain referrals for care outside of the United States through Delta Dental’s partnership with International SOS Assistance Inc. (I-SOS). I-SOS provides referrals to Dentists and dental clinics in nearly 200 countries worldwide. English-speaking operators are available around the clock to answer questions and assist with scheduling care. Delta Dental coverage outside the U.S. is the same as Delta Dental out-of-network coverage within the U.S. Reimbursement is determined by the group’s specific plan design and is based on the out-of-network benefit provided through the plan. The I-SOS referral service is offered through a partnership agreement and will not be available if the agreement terminates. 6.03 Clinical Examination Before approving a claim, Delta Dental may obtain, to such extent as may be lawful, from any Dentist, or from hospitals in which a Dentist’s care is provided, such information and records relating to an Enrollee as Delta Dental may require to administer the claim. Or Delta Dental may require, at its expense, that an Enrollee be examined by a dental consultant retained by Delta Dental in or near his community or residence. Such information and records will be kept confidential. 6.04 Notice of Claim Forms Delta Dental will furnish to any Dentist or Enrollee, on request, a standard Claim Form to make a claim for payment of Benefits. To make a claim, the form must be completed and signed by the Dentist who performed the services and by the Enrollee (or the parent or guardian of a minor) and submitted to Delta Dental at the address shown thereon. If Delta Dental does not furnish the form within 10 days after requested by a Dentist or Enrollee, the requirements for proof of loss set forth in section 6.06 of this Contract will be deemed to have been complied with upon the submission to Delta Dental within the time established in said section for filing proof of loss, of written proof covering the occurrence, the character and the extent of the loss for which claim is made. Enrollees may download a Claim Form from Delta Dental’s web site. 6.05 Pre-Treatment Estimate A Dentist may file a Claim Form before treatment, showing the services to be provided to an Enrollee. Delta Dental will predetermine the amount of Benefits payable under this Contract for the listed services. Benefits will be processed according to the terms of this Contract when the treatment is performed. Pre-Treatment Estimates are valid for 60 days, or until an earlier occurrence of any one of the following events: • the date this Contract terminates; • the date the Enrollee’s coverage ends; or • the date the Premier Dentist’s or PPO Dentist’s agreement with Delta Dental ends. 6.06 Written Notice of Claim/Proof of Loss Delta Dental must be given written proof of loss within 90 days after the date of the loss. If it is not reasonably possible to give written proof in the time required, the claim will not be reduced or denied solely for this reason, provided proof is filed as soon as reasonably possible. In any event, proof of loss must be given no later than one year from such time (unless the claimant was legally incapacitated). All written proof of loss must be given to Delta Dental within 6 months of the termination of this Contract. 6.07 Time of Payment Indemnities payable under this Contract for any loss other than loss for which this Contract provides any periodic payment will be processed: • within 15 working days after receipt of due written proof of such loss. If additional information is requested to process the claim, Delta Dental will notify the Primary Enrollee and the Dentist within 15 working days of written proof of loss. Any undisputed portion of the claim will be processed within the 15 working days; and • within 15 working days after the requested information is received for any disputed portion of the claim. Claims not processed as stated above are subject to a charge of 18 percent interest per annum. Subject to due written proof of loss, all accrued indemnities for loss for which the Contract provides periodic payment will be paid monthly and any balance remaining upon the termination of liability will be paid immediately upon receipt of due written proof. GA-PPO-C(2007) 16 11-XXXX 6.08 Claims Appeal Delta Dental will notify the Enrollee and his/her Dentist if Benefits are denied for services submitted on a Claim Form, in whole or in part, stating the reason(s) for denial. The Enrollee or his/her Dentist has 180 days after receiving a notice of denial to appeal it by writing to Delta Dental giving reasons why he/she believes the denial was wrong. The Enrollee and his/her Dentist may ask for copies, at no cost, of any pertinent documents that are relevant to the claim. The Enrollee or his/her Dentist may also ask Delta Dental to examine any additional information he/she includes that may support his/her appeal. Delta Dental will make a full and fair review within 60 days after Delta Dental receives the request for appeal. Delta Dental may ask for more documents if needed. In no event will the decision take longer than 60 days. The review will take into account all comments, documents, records or other information, regardless of whether such information was submitted or considered initially. If the review is of a denial based in whole or in part on lack of dental necessity, experimental treatment or clinical judgment in applying the terms of this Contract, Delta Dental shall consult with a Dentist who has appropriate training and experience. The review will be conducted for Delta Dental by a person who is neither the individual who made the claim denial that is subject to the review, nor the subordinate of such individual. The identity of such dental consultant is available upon request whether or not the advice was relied upon. If the Enrollee believes he/she needs further review of said claim, he/she may contact his/her state insurance regulatory agency if applicable or bring a civil action under section 502(a) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) if this Contract is subject to ERISA. 6.09 To Whom Benefits Are Paid Payment for services provided by a PPO Dentist or Premier Dentist will be made directly to the Dentist. Any other payments provided by this Contract will be made to the Primary Enrollee, unless the Primary Enrollee requests when filing proof of loss that the payment be made directly to the Dentist providing the services. All Benefits not paid to the Dentist will be payable to the Primary Enrollee, or to his estate, except that if the person is a minor or otherwise not competent to give a valid release, Benefits may be payable to his parent, guardian or other person actually supporting him.

Directory of Delta Dental PPO and Delta Dental Premier® Dentists Georgia Edition Delta Dental Insurance Company Attachment number 7Page 1 of 63 INS-Combo-5/07 Delta Dental PPO and Delta Dental Premier® Dentists How to use this directory This directory contains the names of Delta Dental PPO dentists and Delta Dental Premier dentists (“Delta Dental dentists”) in your state. You may obtain treatment from any licensed dentist, but if you select a Delta Dental dentist (including a PPO dentist), you receive additional advantages: x Delta Dental dentists complete claim forms and submit them directly to Delta Dental. x You pay only your portion of the bill at the time of treatment because Delta Dental pays its portion directly to the dentist. x Delta Dental dentists establish certain fees with Delta Dental, which means your costs will probably be lower than if you visit a non-Delta Dental dentist. If you are enrolled in a PPO plan, you will generally save the most on out-of-pocket expenses if you visit a PPO dentist. A PPO dentist is indicated in this directory by a “*” next to the dentist’s name. However, if you choose to visit an out-of-network dentist, you may still save some money on out-of pocket expenses, and you’ll have the protection from balance billing that visiting any Delta Dental dentist provides. If you select a non-Delta Dental dentist, you may be responsible for the entire dental bill at the time of treatment; which means you will have to wait for reimbursement for any covered amounts from Delta Dental. Your benefit booklet lists your benefits, limitations and exclusions, and explains coinsurance costs. This directory is current as of May 2008 and replaces all previous editions. Please note that it is subject to change without notice. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you ask your dentist about his or her current status as a participating PPO dentist or Premier dentist with Delta Dental.

(Approved by Public Safety Committee September 29, 2008) Background:The Augusta Fire Department has just completed the construction of Fire Station #6 which was designed by Virgo-Gambill Architects who also administered the construction contract. It is our desire to use the same station design that was used for station #6 for the construction of station #10 on Alexander Dr. and utilize the same architectural firm for this project. Analysis:The fire station design that will be used for station #10 is the same basic plan that was used for the construction of station #6, with small deviations that may be required due to the size and topography of the construction site for the new station. Due to this proposed design use and the ability to expedite the new construction as soon as possible and save on construction cost increases, we are asking to be allowed to use Virgo-Gambill Architects on this project . Financial Impact:Virgo-Gambill Architects have agreed to maintain the same fee structure that was used for the construction of station #6 in October,2006. The fee was based on 5.9 percent of the construction cost of the project. This percentage still remains within the allocated budget for the new construction. Alternatives:None at this time. Recommendation:Approve the request to use Virgo-Gambill architects for the construction of fire station #10 at the same fee percentage that they charged for the construction of fire station #6 in October, 2006.

Since this will be the same 3-bay design as we did for the new Fire Station #6 on Richmond Hills Road, our fee percentage will remain the same. As we have discussed previously, there will need to be coordination between our civil engineer and Georgia Department of Transportation to ensure the final elevations of the new Alexander Drive, once construction is completed. We will also need some time to survey the existing house that will need to be demolished. We expect a time frame for the design and construction for Fire Station #10 to parallel that of Fire Station #6. Please review the above information and if you have any questions or need any additional information, please contact me accordingly. Sincerely, Virgo Gambill Architects R. Steven Virgo, AIA, ASID Attachment number 1Page 1 of 1 Commission Meeting Agenda 10/7/2008 2:00 PM Augusta Richmond County Communication Replacement Department:Information Technology Caption:Motion to approve the purchase of new digital radios for Augusta Richmond County. (Approved by Public Safety Committee September 29, 2008) Background:The Federal Communication Commission reassigned a block of frequencies used by the Public Safety community to Sprint /Nextel. One of the conditions of this action was Sprint/Nextel agreed to reprogram all radios affected by this action. If the radios could not be reprogrammed then they would have to be replaced by Sprint/Nextel at no cost to the user. Augusta Richmond County has approximately 600 radios that fall into the replacement category. Because these radios are being manufactured by Motorola, we have the opportunity to upgrade our current obsolete fleet with digital radios at a fraction of the cost of a new radio. The County will be able to purchase this equipment at an 80% discount over the normal cost of this equipment. Analysis:In order for the County to take advantage of this one time offer from Sprint/Nextel and Motorola, we need to purchase this equipment this year. The attached contract with Sprint /Nextel also needs to be approved. This contract has been reviewed by our in house legal department and they have signed off on it. This will be a sole source purchase since we are in a contractually agreement with Motorola to utilize their 800 MHz smartzone communication system. Financial Impact:This project will cost approximately $500,000.00. The funds for this project are available and have been allocated in the different departments in their 2008. Alternatives:None. The communication equipment is 14 years old and needs to be replaced. Recommendation:Approve the purchase of the new communication equipment and the contract with Sprint/Nextel for Augusta Richmond County. Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: Various departments have budgeted for these radio's in 2008 which has been approved by Commission.

(Approved by Public Safety Committee September 29, 2008) Background:Augusta currently has an award-winning website that was developed by the IT Department. Maintaining this site at a high level has become increasingly difficult due to the high degree of skill and time needed to manage the site (which includes all the links, documents, departmental pages, etc). IT believes that having a specialized firm redesign the site and then implement a content-management solution for Augusta will give our web site a new-and-improved appearance and give us access to other service offerings that we do not currently have. Analysis:Augusta IT worked with the Procurement Department to develop and release RFP 08-094. IT and Procurement reviewed the proposals that were submitted and determined that CivicPlus has the best suite of services and products for Augusta. The new site, when implemented, will be completely redesigned and will be comparable to some of the best municipal sites in the country. CivicPlus will also provide Augusta with a content management solution, which will enable us to update the site through a straightforward interface that requires little specialized programming skill (thus diversifying the number of people who can contribute to it). The new site will also include photo galleries, slideshows, online forms, opinion polls, events calendars, and an email subscription/notification service, among other things. Financial Impact:The cost for the revision of the web site and service implementation is $46,900. Alternatives:Continue managing the site in-house and thus limit potential service offerings and ease of use. Recommendation:Approve contract with CivicPlus for Web Design Services and Content Management Enhancements for Augusta's Web Site Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: 272015410.5424220 $46,900 Cover Memo Item # 23 REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Procurement.

(Approved by Public Safety Committee September 29, 2008) Background:The Augusta Fire Department is preparing for the fire department rating evaluation by the Insurance Services Office Inc. (I.S.O.). This evaluation determines the fire insurance rating for our city and impacts directly the cost of the fire insurance premiums our citizens and businesses pay. One of the areas that we are deficient in is the number of aerial apparatus that we have in our fleet. Analysis:In the last I.S.O. evaluation it was stated that we needed to maintain six aerial apparatus on duty at all times and to maintain two active reserve aerials. This is due to the size and make-up of our city’s population and building construction types and sizes of these structures. We have at this time four aerial apparatus on duty and only one reserve. In order to attempt to improve on this area of concern, we are requesting that the Commission allow us to purchase a new aerial truck by utilizing funding from the Augusta Fire Department fund balance. We are requesting that an amount not to exceed $1,000,000.00 be placed into our operating budget from the fund balance for the purchase of this apparatus and that any unused funding from this purchase be returned to the fund balance. The use of these funds from our fund balance will not place in jeopardy the ability of our fund balance to support any unseen future liabilities. We realize that this will still not bring us to the point that the I.S.O wants us to be as far as the number of aerial apparatus in our fleet, but, we feel that financially, this is all we can add to the fleet at this time. Financial Impact:$1,000,000 Funding for this project is available in the Fire Department fund balance. Alternatives:None at this time Recommendation:Approve request to purchase the needed aerial apparatus utilizing funding from the Fire Department fund balance Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: Availble in AFD fund balance.Cover Memo Item # 24 REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Finance. Administrator. Clerk of Commission Cover Memo Item # 24 Augusta, Georgia I.S.O Pre-Rating Audit EXCERPT Ladder Companies. Last rating you scored 26.2%. Current score 20.6%. Only 4 of the needed 6 fully equipped ladder companies are provided. Last rating in 1986 ISO clearly stated you needed 6 ladders and 6 service companies. One service company is available but is not creditable because it is not staffed. ISO rules require the first due ladder company to be within 2 1/2 road miles of the property it is assigned to protect. The standard for a required ladder company is 5 buildings 3 stories or taller, 5 buildings more than 35 feet to the eve, 5 building with fire flows above 3500 gpm or any combination of structures totaling 5 or more or any two districts that combined total 5 or more. A service company is required within 2 ½ road miles of all property protected that does not require a ladder truck. For each building over 35 feet in height to the eves, or each 3 story structure or any building with a fire flow over 3500 gpm, the service company needs one ground ladder off the required ground ladder list starting with the tall ladders first. Once five ground ladders are needed on a service company a ladder or platform is needed as well to reach the eves of the tallest building in its response district up or 100 feet, whichever is lowest. Stations 1, 4, 6, 10, 13 and 9 need 100 foot ladders or towers. RECOMMENDATION To buy 3 fully equipped quints = $2,300,000 or $240,000 yearly on a 12 year lease Reserve Ladder Companies. Last rating you scored 96%. Current score is 65%. Two properly equipped reserves are needed for full credit. All reserve ladders need to be fully equipped. In a situation where you need ladder trucks and service company apparatus the spare needs to be a ladder truck for full credit.

(Approved by Finance Committee September 29, 2008) Background:The Information Technology Department has an employee that has been serving active duty in the military. This employee is in the Help Desk Specialist I position and their respective salary has continued to be funded in the Information Technology budget. In their absence, a temporary employee is utilized to provide adequate support coverage to our users. The funding for this temporary employee can be transferred from the personnel costs of the Help Desk Specialist position. Analysis:Currently the Information Technology Help Desk receives an average of over 7,000 calls per year and there is only 1 other Help Desk Specialist to address these calls. Approving this agenda will allow for the Information Technology Department to continue to have two specialists to assist our users in a more timely manner. Financial Impact:There is no financial impact. The funds are currently allocated in the Personnel line item of the budget for this employee and will be transferred to the Temporary line item to cover the cost. Alternatives:Do not approve. Recommendation:Approve the interdepartmental tranfer of operating funds within the Information Technology Department to address the cost of a temporary employee.

(Approved by Finance Committee & Engineering Services Committee September 29, 2008) Background:The TEE Center project was approved by voters in the SPLOST V referendum. Major project milestones completed to date include completion of a market feasibility and programming study, selection of a location and completion of an Operations Agreement between Augusta and Augusta Riverfront, LLC. Analysis:TVS is an internationally-recognized, Georgia-based firm with expertise in trade and convention centers. Having prepared the programming study for the TEE Center, they are uniquely qualified to design the project. Financial Impact:Fees for the services will be based on a percentage of the construction cost, with the final fee “locked-in” once the construction budget is set. The project has a total of $20 million in funds. Because this funding has to cover construction, land acquisition, land development, architectural fees, project management fees, furnishings, specialty consultants and contingencies, the construction cost component is expected to be in the range of $14-16 million, absent additional funding. The Architect’s contract will include compensation provisions that utilize a sliding scale as a percentage of the construction contract award price. This will facilitate an adjustment to the architect’s fees to the exact construction contract amount, and recognize that the project budget may increased by supplemental funding. Should the overall project funding level remain at $20 million, the construction budget is forecast to be approximately $15 million, with an architect’s fee of 8.9%, or $1,339,500. Other funding and fee scenarios are attached hereto. The construction budget will become established early in the design process, at which time the compensation provision will be converted to a lump sum amount based on the percentage stated above. In addition to the above an allowance of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) will be included for reimbursable expenses. Alternatives:Advertise for procurement of architectural services. Recommendation:Approve execution of a contract with TVS Associates. The firm is a leader in the design of exhibition centers and is familiar with the project. Selecting another firm would likely delay the project by 4-6 months.

(Approved by Finance Committee September 29,2008) Background:The Augusta Utilities Department-Construction and Maintenance Division is responsible for the upkeep of thousands of water control valves is the city and county. Part of their maintenance requirement is to make sure that the valves are opening and closing properly at all times. In order to operate or “exercise” the valves, they must first clean the debris from the valve boxes. Once that is done, they must reach into the valve box with a wrench and manually turn the valve on and off to free up any obstructions. Not only does this require the assistance of a large vacuum truck, but can also require several hours of manual labor for each valve. With the new proposed machine, the unit will first vacuum the valve box and then be attached to exercise the valve stem. This will not only free up the large vacuum truck for more important tasks, but also reduce the valve exercise time considerably. This is an essential piece of equipment for this operation. Analysis:Fleet Management submitted a request for bids through the Procurement Department utilizing the Demand Star electronic bid system which offers nationwide bid coverage. The Procurement Department received quotes back as indicated for Bid Item: 08-123A (tab sheet is attached) ; (1) Vermeer Southeast = $37,800.00 for the new machine and $31,800 for the demo unit, (2) Tone & Associates, Inc = Non-Compliant Bid; (3) E.

Dickson & Co., Inc. (WKD) is under contract with Augusta Utilities Department (AUD) to provide professional services for the sewer evaluation of the above referenced project. Our contract had a provision for WKD to provide design and construction administration services as additional services. REASON FOR THE ADDITIONAL SERVICES The Utility Department is experiencing pipe failures of a 36-inch brick arch sewer pipe in the downtown area along 6th Street with the most recent failure occurring five feet off the main train track just north of Fenwick Street. The existing main is an old 36-inch brick arch pipe that is located on the east side of the railroad track with the offset varying from 8 feet at Telfair Street and zero feet (crossing under the tracks) just north of Walton Way. The main is approximately 4 to 5 feet deep. On July 23, 2008, Wes Byne called a meeting to discuss the repairs to the sewer main starting from Walton Way to Telfair Street. Mr Byne asked WKD to prepare a recommendation on replacing the main and develop an estimate of the construction costs. RECOMMENDATIONS After further investigation after the July 23rd meeting, WKD recommends that the 36-inch sewer main be replaced in its current location. We have attached conceptual plans showing the proposed repairs to the sewer main along with an estimated construction cost. SCOPE OF SERVICES WK Dickson will assist Augusta Utility Department by performing the engineering and construction administration services to coordinate the replacement of the 36-inch sewer pipe. Below you will find the specific work items associated with this amendment and the associated fees and responsibilities.

Goins, Interim Director Caption:Motion to approve purchase of hardware and implementation of Utilities Warehouse Inventory Bar Code Scanning Software. (Approved by Engineering Services Committee September 29, 2008) Background:For the past several years, Utilities has budgeted to convert the supplies warehouse to a bar code scanning system. The project has been delayed to coincide with the moving of the warehouse, which should take place sometime early next year. The timing will give AUD some time to become familiar with the new technology while reorganizing the warehouse and preparing for bar code scanning. Analysis:AUD has been planning to implement bar code scanning for its supplies warehouse for several years. The purpose of the bar code scanning system is to be able to automatically adjust inventory quantities and warehouse transfers, accurately receive inventory and easily transfer physical inventory counts to the software at year-end with fewer human errors. Eventually, AUD hopes to be able to streamline the work order system to allow for field workers to scan bar codes from a parts book to record use of parts. This will speed up processing of work orders and more accurately record usage of inventory in the field, which will make year-end perpetual inventory more accurate for accounting purposes and job costing at year-end. AUD and the IT department have discussed bar code scanning with the vendor for the software that accounts for the inventory of warehouse supplies, GBA Master Series, and have come to the conclusion that the product they offer will work for the purpose AUD intends it, and will be the most cost efficient. The IT department concurs that this product should be purchased sole source from GBA Master Series for the reasons on the attached document. Financial Impact:The cost of this phase of the project is estimated not to exceed $25,000, approximately $17,000 for software and training, and approximately $8,000 for hardware. The funds are budgeted and available in account 506-04-3110- 5424510. Alternatives:Do not approve the agenda item and continue with manual recording of all inventory transactions. This will cause for inefficiencies and inaccuracies in inventory accounting and job costing. Recommendation:Approve purchase of hardware and implementation of Utilities warehouse inventory bar code Scanning software.

Page 1 of 2 Bar Coding Implementation – 8/13/08 Scope of Work gbaMS Bar Code Implementation The City of Augusta has contracted with gbaMS to perform implementation of the gbaMS Bar Code software. This solution is described in detail below. The bar coding software allows you to manage warehouse operations from the field. It has been designed to provide four main functions: • Adjust Quantities • Warehouse Transfers • Stock Counts • Receive Inventory It has been designed specifically for use with a PDA or other handheld device with a Socket brand bar code scanner and works in a disconnected environment. This module functions in the following manner: 1. The PDA creates a Comma Delimited File called BarCodeData.txt. This text files contains all the transactions performed while in the field. 2. The file is uploaded to a server or workstation when the PDA device is connected to the network (host workstation). 3. The file is then imported into the Review and Post module of the GBA Warehouse module. 4. The user then validates the records in Review and Post process. This allows for a QA/QC process to be performed on the data. 5. Finally, the validated records are transferred to the Inventory module in the live database. Hardware Purchase, Installation and Training The City will be required to purchase all necessary bar code equipment , PDA device running Windows Mobile and a scanner (Socket brand being the preferred brand although the solution should work with any standard bar code reader). gbaMS will be responsible for installing the software and testing the units prior to training. The City will ship one unit to gbaMS for testing within the gbaMS controlled environment. After successful testing, gbaMS and the City will coordinate a three (3) days onsite workshop to install, configure and training on the bar code process. The cost associated with the software and training for this scope of work is provided in the following tables. Attachment number 1 Page 1 of 2 Item # 50 GBA Master Series, Inc.

This means that we will be consistent on the same computer platform and no server hardware or software that is not already in use by Augusta will be required to support it. Additionally, support for this product will come from the same source that we already deal with. • The Bar Code software is fully integrated with our existing GBAMS software, so there will be no need for an interface of any kind. • Using any other software package would cause additional work for IT and the Utilities Department, as well as extending the implementation process to include the development and testing of another vendor’s package and its compatibility with GBA. Likewise, this would cause additional work in the future as various packages were upgraded and the interface had to be updated to accommodate the changes. Please submit the GBA proposal (with the final pricing) to the Procurement Department, along with a completed sole-source justification form. If you or the Procurement Department has any questions whatsoever, please do not hesitate to contact me.

(Approved by Commission September 16, 2008) Background:The Redevelopment Powers Law provides for the exercise of redevelopment powers, the adoption of redevelopment plans and the creation of tax allocation districts by counties and municipalities in the State of Georgia. The purpose of the law is to improve economic and social conditions within substantially underutilized, as well as economically and socially depressed urban areas that contribute to or cause unemployment, limit the tax resources of counties, municipalities and consolidated governments while creating a greater demand for governmental services, have a deleterious effect upon the public health, safety, morals and welfare and impair or arrest the sound growth of the community. It is in the public interest of Augusta-Richmond County that the Redevelopment Powers Law be exercised to improve economic and social conditions in order to remedy the detrimental effects of the Augusta-Richmond County Redevelopment Area in the neighborhoods in West Augusta, Downtown, Old City, East Augusta and South Augusta. If the Redevelopment Plan and creation of Tax Allocation District Number One – Augusta is approved, it shall become effective as of December 31, 2008, and shall continue in existence until off redevelopment costs, including financing costs and debt service on tax allocation bonds are paid in full. Analysis:The approval of the Redevelopment Plan and designation of the Tax Allocation District will allow the City of Augusta to proceed in rebuilding the community. Financial Impact: The Development Authority of Richmond County shall be designated as the redevelopment agency to exercise redevelopment powers as necessary to implement the provisions of the Redevelopment Plan. The Commission will authorize issuance of tax allocation bonds and/or obtain commercial bank financing and to use the proceeds of any tax allocation bonds or financing for any and all eligible uses including, without limitation, costs of issuance of the tax allocation bonds or commercial financing; capital costs of public and private improvements, including but not limited to greenspace, parks and trails; street, traffic control devices, bridges and parking facilities, utilities, drinking water, etc. The property proposed to be pledged for payment or as security for payment of tax allocation bonds will include Cover Memo Item # 58 positive ad valorem tax allocation increments from ad valorem taxes levied on all taxable real property within the boundaries of Tax Allocation District Number One – Augusta. The Tax Commissioner, Tax Assessor and Finance Director will take all appropriate measures to identify tax parcels within the Augusta Tax Allocation District upon the tax digest to allocate all positive tax allocation increments and to establish a Special Fund for the accrual of tax allocation increments, and to establish a Special Fund for the accrual of tax allocation increments as provided by the Redevelopment Powers Law.
