BRAZOS COUNTY PROCESSING
The following is a step-by-step process for the operation of the Brazos County Clerk's office
for Real Property Records with the new equipment.
After a document has been filed through cashiering, it is ready to be
scanned. The document number and the number of pages are passed
through the system to the scanning station. The Client has the option to scan
the image immediately or wait until it receives a range of instruments to scan.
The programs can run reports on which documents were scanned for the
date and let you know if any numbers were skipped. The Client also has the
ability to rescan if an image didn't scan properly onto the system. Once the
Client saves that image to the system, it is ready to be viewed by the
instrument number.
2. When the Client is done scanning for the day, they will transmit the daily
images (documents) to Kofile. The images will be transferred to Kofile by DSL,
ISDN, or modem line, whichever is available and most feasible, to be indexed.
Once Provider receives these images, it will return the index back to Client
the next day. Provider will blind verify the indexing, and create a roll of
security microfilm to be stored in our temperature/humidity-controlled vault.
3. The index information will attach to the proper images that coincide with that
instrument. At that moment, the instrument is ready for search by the public.
4. Provider will transmit the electronic Grantor/Grantee indices to Client, the
next day, after Provider receives the scanned images.
Electronic Recording System
Kofile will implement the Electronic Recording Program into the recording and indexing
process.
Kofile shall fulfill the following duties and obligations in support of the electronic recording
system.
a. Kofile will be responsible for providing, supporting, and maintaining the
electronic recording system software and the interface to the Vanguard
System.
b. Kofile will ensure that electronic recording system is secure and that once
documents are received, they remain immutable until such time as they are
recorded.
c. Kofile will work with the Submitting Company and County to resolve issues
encountered in the Electronic Recording Process that are within the scope of
the system and software used to support the Electronic Recording Program.
Brazos County, Texas - Koffle Technologies, Inc. Agreement 2017 Page 17 of 22
W
d. Kofile will also enable a direct filing procedure and link for local submitters to
file directly into the Brazos County system eliminating e -recording processors
such as ACS eRX, Simplifile, Ingeo, etc.
e. Kofile will maintain an audit trail of documents received, the source received
from, dates and times received, receipts received, receipts transmitted, and
any errors encountered.
The aforementioned duties and obligations will be fulfilled in a timely fashion at Kofile's
expense.
County shall fulfill the following duties and obligations.
a. County shall protect the integrity of the recordation process through ongoing
monitoring of. documents received and recorded through the Electronic
Recording Program.
b. County (and, if applicable, any third -party providers retained by County) will
work with Kofile to install, configure, and administer the necessary
infrastructure components to facilitate the Electronic Recording Program.
c. County (and, if applicable, any third -party providers retained by County) shall
test and maintain the software and hardware required to operate the
Electronic Recording program.
d. County shall apply the same level of diligence in handling documents
submitted electronically as those submitted through the normal paper
process.
The aforementioned duties and obligations will be fulfilled in a timely fashion at County's
expense.

SERVICE LEVEL AVAILABILITY
ft
Support staff are always available to answer questions or solve issues in either hardware or
software. They are trained to handle any type of problem and understand the need to use
simple, easy to follow instructions when stepping a customer through a problem.
Kofile's goal is to resolve reported issues in the reported business day—whether received via
customer phone, email, or Internet. Users can issue support tickets on the Internet via web
interface, and track status and resolution on-line, without needing to pick up the phone.
1. Vanguard Records Management Service Availability
The Kofile Service Availability commitment is 99.5% per quarter. Service availability is
calculated as:
total minutes in *a quarter
(-) less the planned outage and unplanned outage times
Y (/) divided by total minutes
d (-) minus the planned outage time
Planned outages are scheduled outages where Kofile performs system maintenance
activities. Kofile will only schedule these outages off hours. For Public Search which is
available 247, Kofile will not perform any planned outages before 9:00 P.M. CST on
business days (weekends and Federal Holidays are available for planned outages.)
Since the County can deploy updates to its configuration instance at a time of its
choosing, deployments to the Brazos County configuration instance that are County -
requested and done during business hours are considered planned outages.
2. Vanguard Records Management Service Response Time
Fifty percent (50%) of all transactions will occur in three seconds or less and not more
than 10% will take six seconds or more. Transaction times are measured as time required
for a transaction to process from the web browser. Kofile provides response time reports
on demand but no more than once per month.
3. Hardware Support
All software maintenance and support is provided by Kofile. The manufacturer provides
certain hardware maintenance when a warranty is applicable.
Any OEM warranties on hardware are passed onto Brazos County. Kofile shall repair or
replace a covered hardware component that has been determined to be defective at
its option with new or reconditioned equipment. The customer agrees to assist Kofile in
determining corrective action necessary to resolve malfunction. This may require an on-
site visit by a Kofile representative or a third -party representative authorized by Kofile.
Kofile relies on the hardware manufacturer's warranty service agreement for hardware
defects. Should the customer elect to acquire premium services most manufacturers
provide upgraded gold support (response is less than four hours) service. Optionally,
Brazos County, Texas - Kofile Technologies, Inc. Agreement•2017 Page 20 of 22

ft
critical components may have on-site replacement and/or redundant
components/servers to increase availability at all times.
4. Kofile Service Update Process and County Notifications
Kofile periodically updates the Vanguard Records Management service modules to
deliver enhancements or defect remedies. The County is notified prior (no less than 60
days) to any update made to the service. All updates are deployed off hours. Updates
are made to the Kofile staging environment where the County's configuration instance
is tested prior to application of the service update.
5. Customer Service Availability
Kofile support staff are available during the County's business hours with a buffer of 30
minutes before and after closing. Off -hour support is available and is initiated by an
agreed to County resource who will have direct contact with Kofile support
management.
Customer Service staff may be reached via telephone, email, chat or via the Kofile
internet accessible support ticket system.
6. Customer Service Response Time
All customer cases must be reported to the Kofile Support Organization. Kofile will
manage each case in the timelines established in this SLA and will use reasonable efforts
to resolve each case. Actual resolution time will vary depending on the nature of the
case and the resolution.
7. Case Severity Levels
