EXHIBIT C
SERVICE PROVIDER COMPENSATION PLAN
A. Service Provider will be expected to generate a minimum of $40,000 in annual
gross advertising revenue as a contract requirement. Advertising Customers
shall bear all costs for production of the advertisement; as well as all costs for
repair, maintenance or replacement of damaged ad panels. Service Provider
shall bear all costs for operating the advertising program. Upon close of the
Advertising Sale, Service Provider will obtain two checks from the Advertising
Customer; one to cover the Advertising Rate for Year 1, one to cover the cost of
the signage.
B. The City will pay the Service Provider a Sales Commission for Advertising Sales
based on the Ad Rate (see Exhibit B — Edora Pool Ice Center Advertising Rates)
developed by the City and the Service Provider, according to the following
formula. The City shall compensate the Service Provider for his commission
percentage on a monthly basis or on a schedule as mutually agreed upon by
both parties and reasonable within the guidelines of the City Finance
Department.:
1. Sales commission for a one-year agreement shall be 25% of the one-year
Ad Rate (i.e., $250 for a $1,000 one-year ad).
2. Sales commission for a multi -year agreement shall be 25% of the yearly
Ad Rate paid each Year; Service Provider's commission is to be paid
whenever the Advertising Customer pays the yearly Ad Fee to the City
(see A, above). :
a. If the entire Ad payment is made in Year 1, 25% commission of
the entire payment amount will be made to Service Provider in
Year 1. No commission would be paid to Service Provider after
the Year 1 payment.
b. If Ad payment is spread out over a multi -year term, the
corresponding 25% commission payments to Service Provider
will likewise be spread out over a corresponding multi -year term.
c. If Service Provider should default on the Services Agreement,
should the City opt for Early Termination, or should either party
elect not to renew the Services Agreement at the annual
Renewal Period; Service Provider would forego any claim for
payment of commissions yet unpaid by the City.
3. Sales commission for Advertising Customers electing to purchase more
than one Ad Space will be compensated the same as in #1 and #2,
above.
4. The City reserves the right to negotiate additional compensation plans
with Service Provider in the event that advertising opportunities in
addition to those outlined in EXHIBIT A — SCOPE OF WORK Section L.
1-7 arise during the course of this Services Agreement.
5. For multi -year agreements, the total dollar amount of the sale will be
spread evenly over the number of years' term of the agreement, in order
to determine progress toward the $40,000 annual sales goal (i.e., a five
year sale for $5,000 total would be credited as $1,000/year toward the
annual $40,000 sales goal).

Jean Helburg, Project Manager
James O'Neill, Director of Purchasing & Risk Management
City of Fort Collins
215 North Mason Street, 2°d Floor
Fort Collins, CO 80522
Dear Ms. Helburg and Mr. O'Neill;
I am excited to turn in this RFP regarding the sale of dasher boards, scoreboards and
peripheral materials at EPIC. I believe that my background and knowledge of the area
will be a nice fit in making this a success for EPIC, the City of Fort Collins and myself.
I have been a resident of Fort Collins for the past 20 years, and through my experience in
sales and marketing as well as involvement in several non -profits; feel I have the ability
to fulfill the needs of the city regarding sales of advertising at EPIC.
When I came here in March of 1986, the EPIC was under construction. With two hockey
players and an avid figure skater in the family, EPIC was on the top of our list for the
family. When it opened, I was able to secure the purchase of the scoreboard in the rink,
partnering Hardee's and Coca Cola to cover the $15,000 cost. Obviously, having been
involved with EPIC for the past 20 years, I am very familiar with the goals and mission
of the Fort Collins Recreation Division and the functions associated with EPIC.
I have worked with the Fort Collins Symphony Guild on the Cranberry Pops program ad
sales in 2005, selling over $16,500 in less than 2 months, covering the loss of their major
donor ($5,000) by securing several new advertisers.
I also established three major golf tournaments in the area, "The Just For Ladies"
Children's Hospital Golf Tournament, and the Kristi Visocky Memorial Golf
Tournament. As you know, the Kristi Visocky tournament was the largest in northern
Colorado last year, and we anticipate it being even bigger this year.
In addition, I have co -produced the Denver Boat show with Gary Krahn since 1999, and
have also produced 4 home shows at The Ranch since 2003. These shows require selling
sponsorships, booth and bulk space as well as marketing and advertising the shows. All
have been huge successes.
I wish to thank you for taking the time to consider my RFP. I believe that I have a good
working relationship with all parties involved and can do the job for you.
Thank you,
Robert "Bob" Visocky
Robert "Bob" Visocky
Projects
1986: Got Hardee's and Coca Cola to contribute $15,000 to EPIC for the scoreboard.
1995: Hosted the National Club Championship Hockey Tournament at EPIC. Secured
sponsorships, hosted welcome party for visiting teams, got area restaurants involved. Was
a huge success for both EPIC and the city in terms of financial support.
2003 — present: Producer of the Northern Colorado Home/Garden Show. Held in January
of each year, with over 100 vendors and 200 booth spaces sold each show, attracting over
4,000 visitors over the 3-day run. Requires sales, marketing and layout skills.
2005: Sold ads for the Fort Collins Symphony Guild Cranberry Pops program. They
came to me in September and asked if I could help them with the sales end of the event.
They had lost their major sponsor ($5,000) and several $1,000 sponsors due to the
economy and closure of several high-tech businesses that had been involved with them in
the past. With my contacts, I was able to secure a major sponsor ($5,000) and match what
they had done in the previous year ($16.500).
2003 — present: Kristi Visocky Memorial Golf Tournament. In our first three years, we
have raised $60,000, with the proceeds used to provide scholarships for area women. We
anticipate hitting $40,000 this year. I have secured sponsors, sold packages for the party
and the golf tournament, and have gotten restaurants to participate for the party.
2006: Sold advertising and sponsorships for LightWorks productions. This included
sponsors for the speaker series "Evenings with Extraordinary People" at the Lincoln
Center and ad sales in the program.

EXHIBIT A
SCOPE OF WORK
A. Service Provider shall solicit and sell annual or multi -year advertising for

required to make a good faith effort to sell appropriate advertising, in
accordance with the Edora Pool Ice Center Advertising Policy.
B. Advertising rates will be established mutually between the City and the
Service Provider, and will be reviewed annually for possible adjustment.
All advertising shall be sold at agreed -upon rates, to be set forth in a Rate
Sheet (see Exhibit B) that will become part of the Services Agreement;
unless the City grants to Service Provider express written permission to
deviate from such rates.
C. Service Provider will be expected to generate a minimum of $40,000 in
annual gross advertising revenue as a contract requirement. Advertising

well as the additional cost and process for production of the
advertisement.
F. Service Provider shall keep updated and accurate records of all sales
calls made, including unsuccessful contacts. Service Provider shall
provide a copy of these records on a monthly basis to the City in an effort
to keep the City notified of advertiser payment dates, amounts, and
advertising timeframes. Service Provider's books and records will be
subject to inspection and audit, upon request from the City.
G. The City reserves the right to free use of ad space. The City would bear

Contract. Any reclaimed Ad Spaces will go back into the City's inventory;
available for resale to subsequent Advertising Customers.
K. The parties acknowledge that the City's objectives for the advertising
program to be carried out through the performance of this Services
Agreement are to generate revenue for the City through the placement of
advertising in a City -owned recreational facility; to maintain a neutral
position on political, religious, and ideological matters; and to limit
advertising to family -oriented products and services appropriate for
citizens of all ages. Because the City's sale of advertising space is for the
purpose of raising revenue, and not for the purpose of establishing a
forum for public speech, the City reserves to itself the sole and final
authority as to whether proposed advertising is consistent with these
objectives. All advertising in place during the term of this Services
Agreement shall comply with this provision. Advertising that is determined
by the City to be inconsistent with these objectives shall be removed
immediately upon receipt of a written request for such removal by the
Service Provider.

diagrams):
1. Panels located on the dump tanks of both ice resurfacers
2. Designated sections of dasher board panels in both ice arenas
3. Advertising panels attached to the scoreboards in both ice arenas
and the pool (see enclosed pictures):
a) EPIC Pool Scoreboard (Layout and Picture of Scoreboard
enclosed)

c) EPIC Rink Dasher Boards (ad layout enclosed)
4. Marquee and kiosk space in areas designated by facility staff
5. Lobby and hockey benches
6. Banners or flags located in areas designated by facility staff
7. Designated sections of speed skating mats
8. Other areas at the discretion of facility and/or City staff
M. Advertising must comply with the following policy (Revised by City

deceptive, or constitutes a public nuisance;
