(c) | CUSTOMER assumes and shall have the responsibility to include or attach a valid legal description for the property which cannot be located by |
1
CUSTOMER on the Tax Plant. TaxNet agrees to open all orders for customer when requested. |
(d) | In the event a parcel or tract of real property covered in a subject request has been split and for which specific tax information is not available, TaxNet shall only be required to furnish tax information for the original parcel or tract, as shown on the current records of the taxing authority. | ||
(e) | In the event the information requested cannot be supplied within the time contemplated by this Agreement, TaxNet shall promptly notify the CUSTOMER and the CUSTOMER shall have the option of either canceling its request (for which no cancellation fee will be assessed) or approving the delay. | ||
(f) | TaxNet agrees that it shall supply the necessary personnel to adequately train the employees of CUSTOMER in the proper use of the TaxNet applications. Such instruction and training shall be for an adequate and reasonable length of time, and the cost shall be borne entirely by TaxNet. | ||
(g) | CUSTOMER hereby agrees to acquire and/or lease information and/or equipment described on the Attachment(s) hereto and incorporated herein or as added by amendment to this Agreement exclusively from TaxNet, except as provided in sections 1.(f) and 4.(c). |
2. | TERM |
(a) | Effective Date and Term. Unless terminated sooner as provided herein, this Agreement shall be for a term of one (1) year the (“Initial Term”), commencing on the date of execution (the “Commencement Date”). | ||
(b) | Automatic Extension. This Agreement shall automatically extend for additional one (1) year terms from and after the expiration of the Initial Term unless either party hereto gives written notice to the other party of its intention to terminate this Agreement, which written notice must be received at least three (3) months prior to expiration of the Initial Term or any subsequent term. |

3. | FEES AND COSTS |
(A) FEES.
(i) BASIC SERVICE CHARGE: CUSTOMER will be charged for the
following Basic Service Charge for each tax certificate issued by CUSTOMER
to its customers based on information it obtained by accessing TaxNet’s Tax
Plant, which will become payable only when CUSTOMER’s customer closes the
title insurance transaction relating to the real property for which the tax
certificate was ordered by CUSTOMER’s customer. An additional fee will be
assessed for each separately assessed parcel which exceeds the allotted
three (3) parcels covered under the base certificate fee. All fees will be

CUSTOMER, or the title insurance transaction for which it was ordered is not
closed, TaxNet will not charge CUSTOMER for the requested tax certificate.

(ii) CONDITIONS FOR PAYMENTS DUE ON “ALL CLOSINGS”: CUSTOMER
understands and agrees that the Basic Service Charge is based on CUSTOMER’s
percentage of historical closed files, currently estimated at seventy
percent (70%). After six (6) months, should this percentage of payment on
closed orders vary more than twenty percent (20%) above or below the closed file percentage provided by CUSTOMER,
CUSTOMER agrees to perform an audit of its files to determine if payment was
made on all closed files. If no audit is performed, TaxNet has the right to
adjust the Basic Service Charge to reflect the current average closed file
percentage of CUSTOMER.
(iii) SPECIAL TAX PROJECTS: Special tax projects can be performed
at an hourly rate of $75.00 (i.e. Special request to review manual CAD
records which are not done in the normal course of business). All Special
Tax Projects must have pre-approval of county manager.
(iv) UPDATES: Unlimited updates of a previous tax certificate
issued by TaxNet will be performed at no additional charge if ordered within
twelve (12) months of the initial certificate.
(B) ADJUSTMENTS TO FEES: CUSTOMER hereby agrees that the Basic Service
Charge may be increased at any time, at TaxNet’s option, in the following
circumstances:
(i) TAXING AUTHORITY CHARGE INCREASES: The Basic Service Charge may
be increased in an amount sufficient to compensate TaxNet for any increase
in the cost to TaxNet of acquiring the records and other data required for
the tax certificate services. Any increases will be negotiated between
CUSTOMER and TaxNet. Should an increased fee not be agreed upon, this
Agreement may be terminated by either party.
(ii) CLAIMS INCREASES: The Basic Service Charge may be increased in
an amount sufficient to cover anticipated future claims by CUSTOMER for
indemnification under Section 5, hereof, based upon audits performed by
TaxNet, from time to time, of the previous claims asserted by CUSTOMER for
indemnification under Section 5, hereof.
(C) Reimbursement of Expenses. CUSTOMER agrees to reimburse TaxNet,
monthly, for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by TaxNet. “Out-of-pocket
expenses” means any amount paid by TaxNet on behalf of CUSTOMER (i.e. additional
information purchased to complete the certificate). Such out-of-pocket
4
expenses must be pre-approved by CUSTOMER and will be billed by TaxNet to CUSTOMER.
Such billing is to be paid by CUSTOMER at time of closing.
(D) Payment Due Date. All monies due from CUSTOMER are due and payable to
TaxNet at time of closing. Payment shall be sent to:

5
non-advolorem taxes or liens. CUSTOMER shall promptly notify TaxNet, in writing, of any claim asserted against CUSTOMER based upon an Erroneous Certificate.

If TaxNet determines the tax certificate at issue to be erroneous, TaxNet shall pay to CUSTOMER the losses, penalties, interest and court costs incurred by CUSTOMER as a result of the Erroneous Certificate within such thirty (30) day period. If TaxNet determines, in good faith, that the tax certificate at issue is not erroneous, TaxNet shall notify the CUSTOMER, in writing, of such determination within such thirty (30) day period, and shall supply CUSTOMER with all documentation supporting TaxNet’s determination that the tax certificate at issue is not erroneous. If CUSTOMER does not concur with TaxNet’s determination that the tax certificate at issue is not erroneous, CUSTOMER may invoke Arbitration, as provided in Section 8(a), hereof. |
(b) | The indemnification provided in Section 8(a), hereof, shall include any errors made by employees of TaxNet in the opening of tax orders and locating the properties. | ||
(c) | The indemnification provided in Section 5(a), hereof, shall exclude, and CUSTOMER shall be solely responsible for, any loss or claim resulting from the failure of Customer to read or take into account information clearly disclosed in the tax certificate issued to Customer by TaxNet. | ||
(d) | The CUSTOMER agrees that upon the payment of a claim by TaxNet, CUSTOMER will execute an assignment to TaxNet of all of its rights with respect thereto. Such assignment shall be in a standard format. A sample of such assignment is attached to this Agreement. |
