( BY::~~~ elw") , stewart Morris, Jr. fpresident and CEO Typed signature and title EXHIBIT A SPECIFICATIONS These specifications are intended to provide the information by which prospective bidders may understand the requirements of Collier County relative to Preparation and Delivery of Title Commitments, issuance of Title Policies, and Real Estate Closing Services. Title Commitments and Title Policies: Unlike the manner in which title commitments are normally ordered, Collier County (County) usually does not find the property it needs already listed for sale by its current owner. For each major land rights acquisition project (utility mains, roadway expansions, etc.), the County must contact the record title holders of the property and inform them as to how much of their property is sought for the construction of the contemplated improvements. Step One in the County's acquisition process is the preparation of legal descriptions of parcels of land or easements which the engineers and surveyors have determined are necessary in order to construct the proposed improvements. Once these legal descriptions are received by the acquisition department, copies are supplied to the real estate appraiser(s) selected for the projectj and at the same time, they are supplied to the title company(s) selected for the project. For this reason, the dollar value of the property is not yet known at the time the commitment order is placed. Proposed policy values, therefore, are usually "TBD" (To Be Determined). In addition, the County rarely purchases entire subdivided lots in platted subdivisions. The greatest volume of work will be in support of roadway expansion projects, where strips of land from the frontage of properties must be acquired to expand the right-of-way corridor. Also, because the County rarely finds just these 1/ strip takings" already listed for sale, our purchase negotiations take far longer than the average real estate transaction. It can often be ten (10) or twelve (12) months, or longer, between the time that the County first places an order for a title commitment and the time that the County closes on the purchase of the property and orders a title policy. Because the County must order its title commitments in advance of reaching an agreement in order to ensure the County is, in fact, negotiating with the persons and/ or companies with the lawful authority to selt the County does not know at that time whether or not the County will be able to close the transaction. When the asking price of the property simply cannot be justified in the public interest, the County may change the design and consider locating its improvements elsewhere. When this happens, or when the County condemns property, there will be no order for a title policy. Condemnation also becomes inevitable when the project schedule does not allow enough time to resolve a complex title problem, such as the need for an estate to go through probate before the land can be disposed of through a typical real estate closing. Page 10 of16 While the County occasionally requires a title commitment on a single property, more than likely, the County will be involved in a major public works project which affects many properties at the same time. For this reason, title commitments are often ordered in numbers (sometimes as many as twenty (20) to forty (40) at once). This is why the specifications for Preparation and Delivery of Title Commitments address the staggered delivery of title commitments where large numbers are ordered at once (See paragraph 11 below). Real Estate Closing Services: Collier County desires to receive fixed-rate bids on the actual preparation of the legal instruments necessary to comply with the Schedule B-1 "Requirements" portion of the title commitment, and for those services required to obtain the proper execution of all necessary instruments including, but not limited to, conveyance instruments, releases, subordinations, affidavits, requests for estoppels, special assessments, tax proration's, and the preparation of closing statements required to close the real estate transaction and issue the title policy. The actual offer letters and official notices will be sent to the property owners by County staff; all negotiations will be conducted by County staff; and the preparation of all purchase agreements or easement agreements will be drafted by County staff. Upon the bilateral execution of a purchase agreement or easement agreement by the owner and County, the file may be turned over to the title company to close the transaction. Title Commitment Preparation. 1. Unless a prior title insurance policy is obtained, title Commitments must be based on no less than a 30-year search and are to be prepared as follows: a. Schedule /I A" must identify the specific interest in real property to be acquired by the County, the current record title holder of the fee simple interest in said real property, and the exact manner in which said title is currently held; b. Schedule "B_1" must list only those requirements necessary to guarantee insurability in the event a title policy is to be purchased. Requirements should be listed in reverse chronological order, beginning with the particular instrument which must be executed by the current title holder in order to vest that particular real property interest with the County; and c. Schedule "B-2" must list only those easements and other exceptions to which any title policy would be subject (see Paragraph 3). These must be listed in reverse chronological order. 2. In addition to the title commitments issued pending a fee simple acquisition, Company shall provide title commitments for easement acquisition, and shall NOT, in such cases, require the execution of a warranty deed, but shall instead itemize as a requirement the recording of an easement for the purpose(s) specified in the County's NOTICE TO PROCEED. 3. The County may request Company to issue a title commitment for the entire parent tract, or for only a portion of the parent tract. In the case of the latter, Schedule B-II shall list only those exceptions applicable to the subject parcel (and shall not include those Page 11 of 16 ",--.-..- .,., ....-...... ........ ..,-....,......"~"....11'.,___.,,'~...:;....,...., ..........,....,."..".".1__...."'......,.........___..__,,... .,...._,.. '._"'_'."~""_'____"_. "n... ...... ... un. ... . ..".__....._....___.____.._~...,.. exceptions applicable to the remainder of the parent tract). County will provide Company with a legal description of the subject parcel simultaneously with the Notice to Proceed. 4. All title commitments issued by Company to County must contain verification that Company has checked the names of alll/relevant parties to the transaction" (defined in this case as sellers, buyers and any non-traditional lenders) against the "Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons" (SDN) list published by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). If Company's search discloses a "match," the commitment must include, in Schedule B-1, a statement that a match against the SDN list was found. 5. At the request of County, Company shall issue an endorsement or update of a title commitment; and upon County's compliance with the requirements as set forth in Schedule "B_1" and payment of the risk premium at the contract rate, Company shall issue County a title policy for levels of coverage equivalent to the values of the interest in real property sought by County. 6. Reissue credit will be given toward the cost of County's title policy whenever possible. Therefore, Company shall make every reasonable effort to ascertain whether a previous policy exists and secure a copy of any prior policies for which reissue credit can be given. 7. "Owner's Amount" (property value) shall state, "TO BE DETERMINED" upon the initial issuance of the title commitment. Unlike typical real estate purchasers, the County often seeks title information long before the valuation of the interest to be acquired is complete. 8. In addition to the terms and conditions governing invoicing contained in Paragraph 3 of the Annual Agreement for Title Commitments, all invoices, bills and/ or statements must specify the exact service performed, Le., issuance of title commitment, issuance of title policy, etc. All invoices submitted for payment must be originals on Company letterhead; must list Company as "payee"; and must reference the PO number, Project Number and Parcel number provided to Company by County. Copies of invoices and invoices from entities other than the Company under annual contract with the County will not be paid. 9 County shall pay no penalty, fee or other charge for failure to order a title policy or utilize the closing services of Company. In such instances, payments made by the County for . title commitments and updated search reports shall be payment in full for title services rendered by Company related to the subject real estate. 10. Title commitments and updated search reports shall include as attachments legible copies of all state and federal tax liens, ad valorem tax deficiencies, mechanic's and materialmen's liens, mortgages and financing statements, judgments, lis pendens, contracts for deed, recorded leases, easements and any and all covenants and restrictions of record affecting the real property sought by the County. (Copies of encumbrances that affect the parent tract but which do not affect the subject parcels being acquired by County are not to be included.) Page 12 of 16 Where the portion of property sought by the County is part of the common elements of any homeowner's association, property owner's association or civic association, Company shall include with the title commitment a copy of all recorded instruments pertinent to said association, including but not limited to, declarations or protective covenants and restrictions, articles of incorporation, and corporate by-laws. Where the portion of the real property sought by County is part of the common elements of a condominium, Company shall include with the title commitment a copy of the. declaration of condominium and any amendments thereto. Recognizing that these association documents can be quite voluminous, Company shall contact County if there is doubt as to whether said copies are necessary. Copies of instruments should be attached to the title commitment in the same reverse chronological order as listed in Schedules "B_1" and "B-2". After the copy of the instrument that evidences the current record title holder, there should be attached in reverse chronological order copies of all those instruments listed in Schedule liB-I", followed by all of those instruments listed in Schedule "B-2" in reverse chronological order. 11. Delivery of the title commitments shall be in accordance with the schedule below, where II delivery schedule" constitutes the total number of business days lapsing between issuance of Notice to Proceed by County and delivery by company of completed title commitments. Number a/Title Commitments Ordered Delivery Schedule ** 1 to 3 6 Business Days 4 to 6 10 Business Days 7 to 12 15 Business Days 13 to 25 20 Business Days 26 to 35 25 Business Days Over 35 To be negotiated Update 6 Business Days **This delivery schedule shall govern unless an alternate schedule is submitted with Bid. 12. Company shall NOT require a certified survey as a pre-condition to issuance of a title policy. 13. Certificates of Good Standing from the office of the Secretary of State shall NOT be listed as a B-1 requirement. County shall provide a copy of the Corporate Detail Record showing current corporate status, along with the Directors/Officers of the corporation from the Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations web site. 14. The recording of corporate resolutions in the public records shall NOT be listed as a B- I requirement. Page 13 of 16 15. Schedule B-1, Requirements, may call for an Amended Notice of Commencement OR a Partial Termination, but shall not require total termination of the Notice of Commencement unless all intended improvements have been completed. 16. Company shall provide the Property Appraiser's folio number for the parent tract from which County seeks an interest in real property. Ad Valorem taxes, both current and delinquent, if any, shall be itemized in the title commitment. 17. Initial orders for title commitments shall be in writing either on County letterhead, fax transmittal form or emaiL and must include the name of the County employee placing the order. Updates and endorsements may be ordered by phone. 18. Company will immediately notify County of any determinations made by its underwriter that newly enacted Florida Statutes, Florida Department of Financial Services ("DFS") guidelines or federally mandated restrictions affect Company's ability to comply with the terms of this contract proposal. Real Estate Closing Services: Company will be provided electronic copies in Microsoft WORD format of the County's format instruments which have been approved by the Office of the County Attorney. Upon reaching an agreement with the Property Owner, and obtaining the execution of same by the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, the parcel file can be turned over to the Title Company for the preparation of legal instruments and the assemblage of all releases, subordinations, estoppels, proration's and other required documents.

Company will work with the property owners to set a timely closing date. Company must email the closing statement to the Property Specialist for. review and approval. Within four (4) weeks following County's approval of the Closing Statement, County will provide Company all funds required to Close. When conducting real estate closing services for the County, Company shall ascertain the status of any existing title policies and attempt to secure a copy of said policy for purposes of reissue credit against the cost of any owner's title policy to be issued to County (The percentage of available reissue credit giv~n for "partial acquisitions" will directly correspond with percentages of the insured property being conveyed to County). Company shall record the appropriate documents in the public records and notify the Property Specialist that the closing has occurred. Copies of all executed closing documents, including any B-1 requirements, will be provided to County. In order to comply with both the purchasing policy of County and requirements of most title underwriters, Company will email to County a "pdf" fQl2.X of the original title policy simultaneously with submission of the original invoice for services. Company will then deliver the original executed title policy immediately upon receipt of payment from County.
