Dear Yousi,
Thank you for the questions submitted related to the bus (Serial Number 184208). It is
very important to us that our customers have a complete understanding of their bus
specifications and price.
Accordingly, as part of the ordering process, approximately 6-7 months in advance of the
bus production we provide each customer a set of"Meeting Notes" outlining the
complete bus specification and schedule a Pre-Production meeting with the key
representatives from the transit agency to systematically review the entire build. Any
additions, deletions, changes or modifications to the order are updated in the meeting
notes and price summary which are then sent to the customer. This process validates that
both Gillig and the customer are in agreement with the specifications and price long
before the bus is delivered, placed in service and payment is due.
We apologize for any misunderstanding related to the items listed below and trust the
answers provided are satisfactory and payment for the bus will be forthcoming.
Sincerely,
Butch Sibley
Regional Sales Manager, Gillig LLC

Question- Low profile 800 MHz antenna(ASP 931) —pg. 8 of Gillig price sheet says ASP 930T, why the
difference?
Answer- The ASP 931 and ASP 930T are identical except for the cable connector. One uses a male and
one uses a female. The type radio used determines which one we use. Both are the same price.
Avail ITS system—pg. 9 of Gillig price sheet has a budgetary price of$30,000, can you provide
documentation of how you arrived at $12,272 on the Price summary sheet?
Answer - Each property has different requirements for ITS systems. Often times specific ITS requirements
are not known or change after the order is placed. Gillig used $30,000, as a place holder so properties could
proceed with their order. Once the pre-production meeting is held and the ITS system requirements are
defined the price is adjusted on the final price summary.
Question - Round Dialight yield sign for$242—can you tell me where to find this on the contract?
Answer - This option was not available when the contract started. The triangle yield sign on the contract is
$600. Gillig is offering this lower cost option as a courtesy to our customers at$242.
Question- 7"brake light w/10 degree Bezel to HVAC door—can you tell me where to find this on the
contract?
Answer - Bezels are not a standard offer and therefore not on the contract. At the pre-production meeting,
Naples asked to have the bezels installed on the bus and we accommodated this request. Gillig's price for
this option was $100.
Question- Maycom Mobile 5300—pg. 8 of Gillig price sheet has a budgetary price of$6000 for the Harris
radios which is what we wanted and received; please explain why the price summary has Maycom and how
you arrived at the $3900?
Answer - Maycom was sold to Harris. Today all such radios are referred to as Harris. When the contract
was prepared in December 2013 we were unable to determine the various features that each property may
require in the radio so we used a budgetary price. Once the order is placed we get a revised quote base on
the specific functions required in the radio and adjust the price accordingly.
