Payment Processing Services Statement of Work: Catalis Payments, LLC & Everett Municipal Court | Page 2 of 17 <br />THIS PAYMENT PROCESSING SERVICE STATEMENT OF WORK (this “SOW”) is made and entered into as of the ____ day of <br />____________ 20___ (“Effective Date”) by and between Catalis Payments, LLC (“Provider”) and City of Everett (“Merchant”). <br />Merchant and Provider may each be referred to individually as a “Party” and together as the “Parties.” The attached Exhibits are <br />incorporated by reference. <br />TERM <br />This SOW will commence upon the Effective Date and continue for three (3) years, at which point in time the SOW will automatically <br />renew for successive one (1) year periods unless either party, at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the then applicable term, <br />provides the other with written notice of its desire to terminate this SOW. <br />STRATEGY <br />After the contracting process has ended, Provider will build and then maintain payment channel(s), as defined below, to allow Merchant <br />to securely accept, validate, and track payment data from its Customers. Where Web E-Payment System is in scope, an initial test site <br />will be built to load all data received from Merchant and JIS / Codesmart. On this test site, Provider will build logic and business rules <br />to govern the hosted data. Once the web services have been properly built, tested, and reviewed, Provider will establish Merchant <br />Identification credentials. Web services and Merchant Identification credentials will be applied and integrated into the hosted site and <br />data backed payments will be tested. Once the payments are tested, Provider will initiate training for all Merchant personnel, done <br />remotely. Upon successful training, the hosted website will be moved into a production environment and undergo a subsequent round <br />of testing. After testing and validation of the data, Merchant will direct Provider to launch the site. <br />The date of System launch (“Go-Live”) will be targeted during an implementation kickoff call with all relevant stakeholders. The <br />successful completion of this Statement of Work is dependent on Merchant reviewing test content, data, and functionality in a timely <br />manner, and providing an appropriate level of operational and strategic engagement to participate in training, deploy the solution into <br />production environments, and follow through with the responsibilities listed below. <br />SCOPE <br />For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: <br />1.
