Price Proposal ICF is pleased to provide this firm fixed price cost estimate to the City of Redlands. Our technical Scope of Work demonstrates that the ICF Team has experienced,field tested Hazard Mitigation and Planning expertise to support the City of Redlands update A multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan(HMP). 1.1 Appropriate Budgets and Level of Effort Developing a fee proposal for a technical Scope of Work(SOW)such as this can be challenging. The City of Redlands draft SOW identifies their expected requirements for an updated 2010 HMP;however,there are a number of variables left to be determined that could impact the products delivered,as well as the associated costs. Because of this uncertainty,ICF has made several project and cost assumptions as the basis for developing its offer(see section 1.4). To the extent that these assumptions are inconsistent with City of Redlands,ICF can add,delete or modify its approach to specific activities,adjusting its offer,as appropriate,prior to finalizing any resulting contract. ultimately we recognize the need to be flexible and stand ready to make these kinds of adjustments. As a seasoned and successful federal,state,and local contractor, ICF prides itself on doing whatever it takes to get the job done well. That notwithstanding,we understand the need for a specific cost estimate and have developed our budget based on what we believe to be reasonable assumptions about the nature of the work. 1.2 Period of Performance The proposed period of performance is as follows:July 1,2010 through January 31,2011. 1.3 .Type of Contract ICF is proposing a firm fixed price offer of$68,744, This offer is inclusive of all fully loaded labor cost and other direct costs. Proposed services and prices are valid for 90 calendar days from the date of submission. 1.4 invoicing Schedule ICF will invoice the City of Redlands in accordance with the following payment schedule. Milestone Payment Contract Execution $10.000 September-10 $20,000 October-10 $15,000 November 10 $15,000 January 10 $8,744 Total $68,744 1.5 Costing Assumptions 1Aca%djmlAgreementsl1CF Consulting Services Agreement-Revised.doc 8 The teat below describes the level of effort and other direct cost assumptions that have been included in our cost proposal: ■ ICF assumes that any change in the contract's period of performance or project scope,or requested change to the activities or deliverables proposed in ICF's Cost Proposal will be reviewed by ICF and the City of Redlands for project impacts, including cost considerations, and allow for price negotiation. ■ ICF's proposal is contingent upon negotiation of the final terms and conditions of the agreement. ■ ICF has assumed that all meetings will be held at client furnished offices.

Refer to the Technical Scope of Work for a listing of proposed conference calls and meetings. ■ ICF has assumed it will update the three (3) primary hazards(earthquake, flood, and, fire)section of the HMP and provide technical support to the updating of the remaining sections. ■ ICF has assumed that the City of Redlands,with the technical support of ICF, will review and update the remaining HMP sections; Introduction, Plan Adoption, Community Capability Assessment, and Plan Maintenance. ■ ICF has assumed that the City of Redlands will provide recent earthquake,flood, and fire events to impact the city since 2004. • ICF assumes that draft deliverables will be reviewed and either approved or returned to IGF with consolidated comments within five(5)working days of their submission and that one (1)draft review period will be sufficient to deliver products as final. ■ ICF has assumed that the City of Redlands will pay for all shipping and photocopy costs for all necessary internal and external review of the HMP. 2.
