REV: 01-15-25 MI FEES – TOT Audit Services 16. Audit Services 16.1. Fees for performing audit Services are $2,500.00 per property. 16.1.1. Fees will be increased as of January 1st of each calendar year with reference to the 12- month percent change in the most recently published annual Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), West Region, as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (the “CPI Change”). Each annual increase in the Fees will be equal to the greater of two percent (2%) or the actual CPI Change and the lesser of ten percent (10%) or the actual CPI Change. For example, if the actual CPI Change is 1.5%, then the annual increase will be 2%, if the actual CPI Change is 3.5%, then the annual increase will be 3.5%, and if the actual CPI Change is 12%, then the annual increase will be 10%. 16.2. Fees for any travel and lodging expenses will be billed at cost and applied to all meetings (including implementation, training, operations and support). 16.3. Fees will be invoiced monthly to Client for Services performed during the prior month. Client will submit payment for any balance due to Consultant within 30 days of receiving the invoice. FEES – Business License Compliance Services 17. Compliance Services 17.1. Fees for performing compliance Services apply to all monies received for the current tax/license period and any other prior period collected (including monies received for taxes, penalties, interest, and fees). 17.1.1. Fees for performing discovery Services shall be a contingency Fee of 35% of the revenues received as a result of the Services. 17.1.2. In the event that Client discovers a non-compliant business and reports the business to Consultant (including a calculation of all taxes/fees due), Consultant will categorize the business as a collection service effort and thus apply the lower collection Services contingency Fee rate. 17.1.3. Fees for performing collection Services shall be a contingency Fee of 35% of the revenues received as a result of the Services. 17.1.4. Fees for performing audit Services shall be a contingency Fee of 35% of the revenues received as a result of the Services. 17.2. Consultant recognizes Client’s authority to waive or reduce the tax/fee debt of a business. Should Client decide to do so for a business whose deficiency was identified by Consultant, Consultant shall be entitled to compensation in the amount of one half (1/2) of the Fees Consultant would have otherwise earned. Deficiencies which are uncollectable due to insolvency or dissolution of the business, or for deficiencies which are otherwise incapable of collection (i.e. statute of limitation or other legal defense) shall not be considered a Client voluntary election to waive, and thus, Consultant would not be entitled to compensation related thereto under this provision. 17.3. The fee shall be paid notwithstanding any related Client assistance, work in parallel, and/or incurrence of attorneys’ fees or other costs or expenses in connection, with the relevant Services. 17.4. Fees related to travel and lodging expenses are billed at cost and applied to all meetings (including implementation, training, operations, and support). Travel expenses only apply to out of scope travel and must therefore be pre-approved by Client. ATTY/AGR.2025/Amend. No.2/Hinderliter, de Llamas and Associates (Page 10 of 11)
