Attachment. Add any level of detail necessary for complete explanations.

1. Account Structure

The River Authority is interested in assuring that idle funds are earning at the best,

then-current interest rates available at all times. The River Authority may choose to

employ either a compensating balance or fee basis as its payment method and shall

have the right to change that method with reasonable notice to the bank. The River

Authority has been using a compensating balance basis but is anticipating a change to

a structured investment sweep structure to capture the best rates while minimizing

collateral needs and regulatory fees.

The River Authority is not requesting that the bank play a municipal advisory role in

structuring the accounts and investment sweep. In the anticipated investment sweep

a government, or enhanced government, money market fund would be used if it strives

to maintain a $1 NAV. If the bank has a valid alternative to a SEC money market fund

it should be presented. A repurchase agreement or an off-shore account are not

acceptable as sweep investment vehicles.

an account structure with or without a sweep. Distribution of interest to the individual

accounts is preferred. A history of net rates for any vehicle proposed will be required

on Attachment J.

change account types during the contract period. If this occurs, the new accounts and

their services shall be charged at the same contracted amount.

possible?

points)? If bank charges are discounted, is the regulatory fee also included in

the discount calculation?

which may be established during the contract period by the bank. No assumption of

its use should be made by the bank.

The acceptable investment securities for collateral are:

- Obligations of the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities, or evidence

The River Authority continually investigates new services for use and possible inclusion

under its banking services contract. The following services are not currently required

but will be evaluated in terms of availability, feasibility, service levels, services

provided and charges for current, or future, use under the contract.

The River Authority will make its determination during the contract period as to

whether a particular service will be used. If the service is initiated later in the contract

period the services and charges stipulated in this proposal will be applied. If the bank

projected contract period, it should so stipulate along with the anticipated date of

activation.

balance basis (or a combination of each) for payment of services under the contract.

The River Authority reserves the right to change the payment methodology during the

contract period upon no less than 30 days written notice to the bank with the change

All item and account charges will remain at the proposal price quoted for the duration

of the first three years of the contract period regardless of changes in service volumes

during the period. Renegotiation of fees may be considered for the two one-year

extension period but any changes must be mutually agreed upon in writing by both

parties. Should new services be required during the contract period not contemplated

by this RFP, those services will be provided at fees not more than the bank’s then-

current published rate and approved by the River Authority.

V – Term of Contract The River Authority plans to execute a three (3) year bank depository services contract

with options to renew for two successive one-year terms. The anticipated contract

start date is July 1, 2017.

ATTACHMENT G

COMPLIANCE WITH STATE LAW REGARDING PUBLIC INFORMATION

As a general rule, documents in the files of public entities like the San Antonio River

Authority (SARA) are open for public review under the Texas Public Information Act (the

“Act”) Texas Government Code Section 552. As a result of this law, a vendor’s

submission is generally considered to be public information subject to disclosure.

However, the Act provides several exceptions for disclosure.

In order for a governmental body to withhold requested information, specific tests or

factors for the applicability of a claimed exception must be met. Failure to meet these

tests may result in the release of requested information. The most commonly claimed

exceptions in the Act concerning proprietary information are listed here. This listing is

not intended to limit any exceptions or statutes a vendor may identify if information is

requested.

Section 552.101: Information made Confidential By Law

Section 552.104: Confidentiality of Information Relating to Competition

Section 552.110: Confidentiality of Trade Secrets and Commercial or Financial

Information

In the event that a vendor’s submission is requested under the Act, the vendor must

provide the San Antonio River Authority with the vendor’s preference regarding the

release of the vendor’s submission by checking either “A” or “B” below. If the vendor

objects to the release of information, the San Antonio River Authority will request a

ruling on this matter. It will be the vendor’s responsibility to assert to the Attorney

General the proprietary nature of information and the vendor’s objection to the release.

A. [ ] I do not object to the release of my submission to a member of the public

upon the receipt of a request for the submission made under the Public

Information Act.

B. [ ] I object to the release of my submission to a member of the public made

under the Public Information Act. I will assert an objection to the Attorney

General if my submission is requested. I am enclosing the following:

1. One (1) CD or DVD that contains all information that vendor deems

confidential and/or proprietary marked “confidential”;

2. One (1) CD or DVD that contains all information that vendor deems

public marked “public”; and

3. A paper schedule documenting everything that vendor deems to be

confidential and/or proprietary. Each page that vendor deems

confidential must be stamped “confidential” in vendor’s submission.

The San Antonio River Authority (SARA) is not responsible for receipt of any Proposal

that is not labeled, packaged or delivered properly. If a vendor does not include the

materials requested in Item B. above, SARA will treat the vendor’s submission as a

public record subject to production under the Act.

By execution of this Addendum, vendor warrants and represents that all information

that it, in good faith and with legally sufficient justification, considers to be properly

excepted from disclosure under the Act will be clearly labeled as confidential upon

submission to SARA. Vendor’s signature further reflects that all documents submitted

and not marked “confidential” shall be considered to be public information. By submitting

a Proposal, vendor acknowledges and agrees that all information submitted by vendor

Page 37: REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP) FOR BANK ... I – Background The San Antonio River Authority (the River Authority) is requesting proposals for bank depository services. The anticipated

36

in response to this RFP that is not clearly marked as “confidential” information is public

information and may be fully disclosed by SARA without liability and without prior notice

to or consent of vendor or any of its subcontractors or agents.

Vendor further understands and agrees that, upon SARA’s receipt of a request for

vendor’s information, SARA will provide the requestor the information provided on

vendor’s “Public Information” CD or DVD. If vendor fails to submit its confidential and/or

proprietary information as described herein, SARA shall consider all of the information

to be public, and it will be released without notification to vendor upon receipt of a

request.

To the extent the public version of vendor’s Proposal contains protected materials,

vendor acknowledges that such protected materials may be disclosed, publically

displayed, published, reproduced and/or distributed by SARA pursuant to the Act, or as

otherwise required by law. Vendor warrants and represents that it owns, or has obtained

all necessary permissions with respect to the use of the protected materials and hereby

grants SARA an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display,

publish, reproduce, distribute or otherwise use the protected materials solely for the

purpose of compliance with applicable laws. Vendor shall INDEMNIFY AND HOLD

HARMLESS SARA, its trustees, officers, directors, employees, and contractors, as well

as any trust managed by SARA, from and against any claim of infringement of the

protected materials resulting from SARA’s use of the protected materials as set forth

herein.

Upon receipt of a request, SARA will submit only the information contained on Vendor’s

“Confidential and Proprietary” CD or DVD to the Texas Attorney General to issue a ruling

on whether the information is excepted from public disclosure. In addition, SARA will

provide a requestor with a copy of vendor’s “Public Information” CD or DVD upon

request.

It is vendor’s sole obligation to advocate in good faith and with legally sufficient

justification the confidential or proprietary nature of any information it provides to SARA.

Vendor acknowledges and agrees that SARA shall have no obligation or duty to advocate

the confidentiality of vendor’s material to the Texas Attorney General, to a court, or to

any other person or entity. vendor acknowledges and understands that the Texas

Attorney General may nonetheless determine that all or part of the claimed confidential

or proprietary information shall be publicly disclosed.

In addition, vendor specifically agrees that SARA may release vendor’s information,

including alleged confidential or proprietary information, upon request from individual

members for their own information, agencies or committees of the Texas Legislature

where needed for legislative purposes, as provided for in the Act, or to any other person

or entity as otherwise required by law.

UNDER PENALTIES OF PERJURY, I DECLARE THAT I HAVE READ THE FOREGOING

STATEMENT AND THAT THE FACTS STATED THEREIN ARE TRUE. I affirm under penalty

of perjury of the laws of the State of Texas that I am duly authorized to execute to sign

this statement on behalf of my Company listed below.
