SOLICITATION NUMBER: 36C25718Q0370 PAGE 2 OF 3

AMENDMENT NUMBER: 00001

A. This amendment forms a part of the solicitation documents and amends the project solicitation as noted below. You must submit a signed copy of this amendment with your offer. Failure to do so may subject your offer to be disqualified. Amendments to the solicitation are as follows:

1. Questions and Answers:

Question 1: Is there a point of demarcation for the cable plant?

Answer: This is at the last cable amp prior to the individual drops.

Question 2: Are we expected to maintain & troubleshoot cable plant from demarcation point to outlet in the room?

Answer: No

Question 3: It is mentioned in the RFQ that we would need to help with tuning of Amplifiers. Are these drop amps or the amplifiers for the plant?

Answer: These are the AMPS that run the Plant not the individual drops

Question 4: Does this need to be designed as a whole new cable plant being built on the property or does Spectrum's cable plant become owned by the VA and then can be passed on? (This is very important and needs to be addressed with letter giving full rights if they are abandoning the plant) Answer: We do not know what part of the plant would be abandoned by Spectrum, the wiring within the buildings belong to the VA.

Question 5: What parts of the plant is spectrum abandoning, if they are the losing bid?

Answer: Unknown.

Question 6: Are above ground pedestals allowed? Along with Nodes?

Answer: Yes if it needs to be in Waco. If Temple, the nodes need to be in the building.

Question 7: It is mentioned in the RFQ that they would like a loop and the plant fixed, but we need a better understanding of what the VA is expecting. Are there engineered drawings that show the expectation and show existing plan with amplifiers/splitters and nodes where they are today? (where are the troubled areas that need to be addressed) Answer: This is in Waco and that is how it is set up now starting in building 4 and circles the campus inside loop and the outside loop.

Question 8: The "Deliverables" schedule is different than the "Price/Cost Schedule". They have higher MB Values on the "Deliverables" than the "Price/Cost Schedule. Billie said to go with the higher values as listed on the "Deliverables" which Increases the Dedicated Fiber Bandwidth on 7901 Metropolis Dr, Austin / 4800 Memorial Dr, Waco / 1901 S 1st Street, Temple. Just want to confirm this is the schedule of values we are to use in bidding this solicitation.

Answer: Go with the Deliverables within the SOW the Price/Cost Schedule does not include the increased bandwidth.

2. We are adding an additional location to this Solicitation as follows:

Killeen Sleep Lab 3401 Kaydence Ct Killeen TX, 76542 This location requires 17 TV’s and no internet service
