items via invitation to quote. Please find attached a copy of the results of the last quote

Q4. Prospective bidder is reviewing the bid requirements for the dog waste bags.There is
conflicting information: 3.1 Specifications says "NO substitution", and Section 2.10

A4. Section 3.1 Specifications supersedes Section 2.10 — Equivalent under the Special

11. Equal Benefits for Employees with Spouses and Employees with Domestic Partners. When awarding
competitively solicited contracts valued at over$100,000 whose contractors maintain 51 or more full time
employees on their payrolls during 20 or more calendar work weeks, the Equal Benefits for Domestic j
Partners Ordinance requires certain contractors doing business with the City of Miami Beach, who are
awarded a contract pursuant to competitive bids, to provide "Equal Benefits" to their employees with
domestic partners,as they provide to employees with spouses.Any contract awarded pursuant to this ITB is
subject to the City's Equal Benefits Ordinance(Ordinance No. 2005-3494, and as codified in Section 2-373
of the City Code entitled, "Requirement for City Contractors to Provide Equal Benefits for Domestic
Partners, and hereafter referred to as the "Ordinance"). The Ordinance applies to all employees of a
Contractor who work within the City limits of the City of Miami Beach, Florida; and the Contractor's
employees located in the United States, but outside of the City of Miami Beach limits, who are directly
performing work on the contract within the City of Miami Beach.
A Contractor may institute an internal registry to allow for the provision of equal benefits to employees with
domestic partners who do not register their partnerships pursuant to a governmental body authorizing such
registration, or who are located in a jurisdiction where no such governmental domestic partnership exists.A
Contractor that institutes such registry shall not impose criteria for registration that are more stringent than
those required for domestic partnership registration by the City of Miami Beach
If Proposer cannot offer a benefit in a nondiscriminatory manner because of reasons outside your control, s
(e.g., there are no insurance providers in your area willing to.offer domestic partner coverage) you may be
eligible for Reasonable Measures compliance. To comply on this basis, you must agree to pay a cash
equivalent and submit a completed Reasonable Measures Application (attached) with all necessary
documentation. Your Reasonable Measures Application will be reviewed for consideration by the City
Manager, or his designee. Approval is not guaranteed and the City Manager's decision is final. Further
information on the Equal Benefits requirement and forms noted below are available at

LITIGATION
There is an incomplete, counter-claim, nuisance lawsuit that has been filed
against ZW USA INC by a former re-seller-of ZW products after .ZW USA INC filed
suit against that re-seller for.-failure-to pay invoices amountinglto$ZO,�=.+
ZW USA INC and its legal firm believe the claim is without merit and will not
prevail. The lawsuit has been dismissed on-ce by the Judge in a 6-page
admonishment ruling. The Court has allowed;the Party to amend and refile, but
Zero Waste believes that a-ny re-filing will be dismissed,-this time with prejudi-ce,
by-the-Cou.t.
There have been no other litigations, actual or--threatened against Zero Waste
USA.
The principal owners of-Zero Waste USA have never had a lawsuit filed against'
any previous company they have owned since they started their business careers
in 1981. The current litigation is the only one, and the Company believes it has no
merit and will not prevail.
Thank you.
