YUSBEL GONZALEZ; ygenzaiez@miatnigov.com MS. TAHLIA GRAY; tgray@miamigov.com ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS SUBMITTED BY PROSPECTIVE BIDDERS: Q. 1 A. 1 As a governmental entity, the City of Miami is eligible to utilize tax exempt lease purchase financing to acquire the equipment contemplated under this solicitation. Bidder would like to offer this type of financing, due to the low interest rates available. This type of financing is governed by regulations and provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. In order to allow for compliance with these federal tax law requirements, a separate and distinct financing agreement is required. Special Term and Condition Section 2.5 of the IFB contains language which appears to conflict with this type of arrangement. Would the City of Miami consider entering into a financing agreement which contains the necessary terms and condition in order to allow the benefit of tax exempt financing? No. The City will not enter into a separate financing agreement for the lease of the equipment in this IFB. Special Term and Condition Section 2.5 of the IFB states: "`...J All lease or rental arrangements will be the responsibility of the Contractor and any interest costs incurred, including any required insurance premiums, taxes or other expenses must be factored into the monthly lease/rental rate for each piece of AED equipment. The City will not enter into a separate agreement with a leasing company, but will provide monthly payments to any one source (company) as authorized by the Contractor." Page 1 C Furthermore, Special Term and Condition Section 2.4 of the IFB indicates what documents will constitute the entire agreement between the City of Miami and the lowest responsive and responsible bidder: The City shall order equipment and enter into individual lease/rental agreements forAEDs by issuance of Blanket Releases/Purchase Orders referencing this IFB. The terms and conditions contained in the IFB, the bid response submitted by the lowest responsive and responsible bidder (and accepted by the City), any addenda/amendments issued, and the City's Blanket Release or Purchase Order will constitute the entire agreement. A manufacturer, distributor., local dealer, and/or leasing agency lease/rental agreement will not be used. Furthermore, this contract cannot be sold or otherwise transferred to another individual, company or entity without the expressed written consent of the proper authorities of the City of Miami, Florida.
