2. CONSENT TO ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION

2.1 Customer Acquisition Procedures.

(a) Monitronics has developed an account transfer system for the Dealer Program that allows an ADC Dealer to transfer ADC Accounts to Monitronics. As part of the account transfer process, Monitronics will issue a notice or system call to Alarm.com’s account management system that informs Alarm.com of the transfer of one or more ADC Accounts and instructs Alarm.com to transfer the billing for such ADC Accounts from the ADC Dealer to Monitronics (each such notice or system call being referred to herein as a “Transfer Notice”).

(b) Each Transfer Notice shall be deemed to be (i) an offer by the ADC Dealer to assign to Monitronics all of the ADC Dealer’s right, title, benefit, privileges and interest in and to the Alarm.com Services related to the listed ADC Account to Monitronics on the condition that Monitronics assumes (A) all the ADC Dealer’s duties and obligations to Alarm.com for such listed ADC Account to be performed from and after the Customer Transfer Date, and (B) all of the liabilities resulting from any breach of the duties and obligations undertaken by Monitronics pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A) above for such listed ADC Account that accrue from and after the Customer Transfer Date, and (ii) an acceptance by Monitronics of the ADC Dealer’s offer. Alarm.com automatically consents to transfers by pre-approved ADC Dealers. The transfer and assignment for an ADC Account shall become effective immediately upon Alarm.com’s receipt of the Transfer Notice (“Customer Transfer Date”).

(c) As an alternative to the account transfer system described in Section 2.1(a)-(b) above, Alarm.com shall maintain a web-based application (“Customer Acquisition Website”) that will allow (i) an ADC Dealer to manually list the ADC Accounts that it offers to assign and transfer to Monitronics, and (ii) Monitronics to manually accept or reject the offer to assign and transfer the listed ADC Accounts. The proposed transfer and assignment for an ADC Account shall in this case become effective immediately upon Monitronics’ acceptance of the ADC Dealer’s offer and such date shall become the Customer Transfer Date.

(d) Effective as of each Customer Transfer Date, the parties acknowledge and agree that: (i) the ADC Dealer has assigned to Monitronics all of the ADC Dealer’s right, title, benefit, privileges and interest in and to the Acquired Customer under the Original Dealer Agreement, and (ii) Monitronics has assumed (A) all the ADC Dealer’s duties and obligations for such listed ADC Account to be performed from and after the Customer Transfer Date, and (B) all of the liabilities resulting from any breach of the duties and obligations undertaken by Monitronics pursuant to Section 2.1(d) (ii)(A) above for such listed ADC Account that accrue from and after the Customer Transfer Date. Each assignment and assumption set forth in this Section 2.1 is referred to herein collectively as an “Assignment.

2.2 Third Party Consents. Effective as of each Customer Transfer Date, Monitronics represents and warrants to Alarm.com as follows: (a) that Monitronics has previously entered into the Monitronics Purchase Agreement with each ADC Dealer, (b) that under the terms of the Monitronics Purchase Agreement, the Subscription Agreements of the ADC Dealer are freely assignable by the ADC Dealer to Monitronics, and (c) accordingly, neither the consent of the ADC Dealer nor the Customer is necessary prior to the Assignment of a Subscription Agreement by the ADC Dealer to Monitronics.

2.3 Repurchase of Bad Contracts by the Originating Dealer. Monitronics represents and warrants to Alarm.com that Monitronics has the right under Monitronics’ own agreements with ADC Dealers to cause ADC Dealers who initially create ADC Accounts (“Originating Dealers”) to accept reconveyance of certain ADC Accounts (each, a “Bad Contract”) in accordance with the Alarm Monitoring Purchase Agreement executed between Monitronics and its dealers. If Monitronics exercises its right to return the Bad Contract to the Originating Dealer within the first twelve (12) months after the ADC Account is created by the Originating Dealer, Alarm.com hereby consents to the assignment and transfer of the Bad Contract back to the Originating Dealer, provided that Monitronics gives notice to Alarm.com of such assignment and transfer in writing or via the Customer Acquisition Website. The date that such notice is received by Alarm.com shall be the effective date for the reconveyance of the Bad Contract by the Originating Dealer (“Bad Contract Transfer Date”). Monitronics shall remain liable for all duties, obligations and liabilities (including fees, rates, and charges) as set forth in sections 2.1(b) and 2.1(d) pertaining to the Bad Contract that accrue prior to the Bad Contract Transfer Date. If any Bad Contract Customer cancels its service agreement with Monitronics, Monitronics shall promptly notify the Originating Dealer and Alarm.com.

2.4 Customer Moves and Transfers. Alarm.com expressly acknowledges and agrees that Monitronics shall be entitled to use dealers authorized by Monitronics to perform service and installation of Monitronics’ customer who have either moved their personal or business residence or desire to transfer their monitoring services to another location, so long as Monitronics confirms that a copy of the Alarm.com Terms has been executed by the customer.

2.5 Monitronics Purchase Agreement. Monitronics agrees that the rights, duties, obligations, and liabilities assigned by the ADC Dealer to Monitronics shall be as set forth in the Monitronics Purchase Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A, or as such agreement may be modified by Monitronics. In the event Monitronics revises any of the material rights, duties, obligations, and liabilities assigned by the ADC Dealer to Monitronics in the Monitronics Purchase Agreement, Alarm.com shall be provided thirty (30) days written notice of such modifications, and thereafter Alarm.com can elect not to provide the Alarm.com Services to Acquired Customers subject to such revised material rights, duties, obligations and liabilities as set forth in the modified Monitronics Purchase Agreement; provided however, that Alarm.com shall continue to provide Alarm.com Services pursuant to this Agreement to all Acquired Customers then existing whose accounts are subject to the rights, duties, obligations and liabilities as assigned by the ADC Dealer to Monitronics as set forth in the form of the Monitronics Purchase Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.

 

3. OBLIGATIONS FOLLOWING THE CUSTOMER TRANSFER DATE

3.1 Obligations of the Parties.

(a) The parties acknowledge that Monitronics may acquire ADC Accounts from several different ADC Dealers, each of which has a different ADC Dealer Agreement with Alarm.com. It is the intention of the parties that the relationship between Alarm.com and Monitronics with respect to all of Monitronics’ Acquired Customers be governed by a single set of terms and conditions rather than by the multiple ADC Dealer Agreements. To that end, from and after the Customer Transfer Date, the rights, duties, obligations and liabilities of Monitronics and Alarm.com with respect to an Acquired Customer shall be governed exclusively by this Agreement.

Alarm.com hereby acknowledges and agrees that at no time shall Monitronics be responsible for the payment of activation fees which have either already been charged, or which should have already been charged, to the Acquired Customer, the ADC Dealer or any other responsible third party. Monitronics will be responsible for all re-activation fees, per the prices set forth in Exhibit B, for any customer account which is deactivated and then reactivated at a later date.

4.4 Payment. Monitronics shall remit payment to Alarm.com for the total amount, including all monthly fees, set forth in an invoice, in full, within thirty (30) days after the date of the invoice. Payment shall be deemed overdue if any amount remains unpaid thereafter.

In the event of any good faith dispute with regard to a portion of an invoice, the undisputed portion shall be paid as provided herein.

Alarm.com shall charge, and Monitronics shall pay, each of the applicable fees set forth in Table A below.

*Activation Charges

Alarm.com will charge the originating ADC Dealer the activation charge in their first monthly service invoice. Monitronics shall be responsible for any re-activation fee charged pursuant to Section 4.3 of the Agreement; the charge for such reactivations shall be […***…] per unit.

Pricing to Monitronics is Strictly Confidential

Pursuant to section 8.6 of the Agreement, Alarm.com’s pricing to Monitronics is strictly confidential. Monitronics shall not quote Monitronics pricing to ADC Dealers or potential ADC Dealers, or any third party. For the avoidance of doubt, it is reasonable for Monitronics to provide ADC Dealers with information on the level at which Monitronics will fund a potential Acquired Customer account which includes the Alarm.com services. As an example that is solely hypothetical, it is acceptable for Monitronics to tell an ADC Dealer, “Monitronics will offer a […***…] multiple for an account that includes the Alarm.com Basic Interactive Services”. However, it would be unacceptable for Monitronics to hypothetically state, “Monitronics is charged […***…] for Alarm.com Basic Interactive and we net that out of the RM rate before applying an RM multiple to determine funding.”

Alarm.com Standard Dealer Pricing

Alarm.com’s Standard Dealer Pricing is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit C. Exhibit C provides full descriptions of all of Alarm.com’s standard service plans, standard activation fees and add-on services. This Exhibit B supersedes Exhibit C for the plans which are referenced with discounted Monitronics pricing above. Should Monitronics be Assigned an account that has an add-on service or other service plan not referenced in Exhibit B, then Monitronics shall be responsible for paying Alarm.com its standard rate as indicated in Exhibit C for such add-on services.

Customers can also log in and control their systems through a special website for PDA and Blackberry devices.

Advanced Interactive

Includes wireless signal forwarding (backup or primary). In addition to the features of Basic Interactive (above), this plan also includes Alarm.com’s patented “Normal Activity Monitoring” and “Custom Threat Alerting” features on up to 5 door/window contacts and 2 motion sensors. (Additional sensors can be added; see add-ons below.) Designated sensors will report all activity, 24 hours a day, even when the system is not armed. Customers can subscribe to e-mail and text-message notifications to be alerted about “Normal Activity” to find out when expected events, like a front door opening or interior motion activation, occur. Normal Activity Monitoring helps customers track the comings and goings of household members, babysitters, domestic service providers and others who may enter the property. Customers can also define “Custom Threats” and be alerted when potential threats are detected in and around the property. Examples of Custom Threats include access to a medicine cabinet, liquor cabinet, gun cabinet or cleaning/chemical storage cabinet at an unexpected time. Custom Threat Alerting enables customers to protect their families from dangers that are more common than intrusion, such as accidental ingestion of medications and poisons by children, alcohol consumption by underage family members and access to firearms in the home. Unlimited Normal Activity Monitoring and Custom Threat Alerting events can be reported by the designated sensors; unlimited e-mail and text-message notifications based on customer settings.

SECOND AMENDMENT TO

THE ALARM.COM DEALER PROGRAM AGREEMENT

BETWEEN ALARM.COM INCORPORATED

AND MONITRONICS INTERNATIONAL, INC.

THIS SECOND AMENDMENT (the “Amendment”), dated as of this 25th day of February, 2013 (“Amendment Effective Date”), by and between Alarm.com Incorporated, a company with its principal place of business at 8150 Leesburg Pike, Suite 1400, Vienna, VA 22182 (“Alarm.com”), and Monitronics International, Inc., a Delaware company with its principal place of business at 2350 Valley View, Suite 100, Dallas, TX 75234 (“Monitronics”), hereby amends the October 22, 2007 Alarm.com Agreement (“Agreement”), as amended, by and between Monitronics and Alarm.com. In the event of a conflict between any provisions of the Agreement, as amended, and this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment shall prevail. Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement.

WHEREAS, Alarm.com and Monitronics are parties to the Agreement, as amended by way of Amendment No. 1 dated January 15, 2008;

WHEREAS, Alarm.com and Monitronics desire to amend and supplement certain provisions of the Agreement, as amended. on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth below.

1.2 […***…]

1.3 2g Transition Rate Reduction. Alarm.com and Monitronics recognize that it is in both parties’ interest to begin transitioning accounts utilizing a 2g radio to a 3g radio. Alarm.com further recognizes that such transition requires substantial investment by both parties and that they may wish to spread such investment over some period of time. Beginning July 1, 2013 and continuing until July 1, 2016, Alarm.com shall invest in this objective by reducing the rates charged to Monitronics on all 2g accounts existing as of March 1, 2013 by […***…], according to when the customer was originally created. For the avoidance of doubt, this 2g Transition Rate Reduction only affects those service plans outlined in Schedule B, and does not affect any other add-ons or service plans. By way of example, if a Monitronics customer created in 2010 utilizing a 2g radio was being billed […***…] to Monitronics every month for

The 2g Transition Rate Reduction will occur as outlined in this section 1.3 so long as the rate being billed to Monitronics by Alarm.com for such customer exceeds […***…]. Also for the avoidance of doubt, accounts created prior to March 1, 2013 and subsequently purchased by Monitronics enter the 2g Transition Rate Reduction pricing schedule at […***…].

1.4 Pricing Changes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Amendment to the contrary, Alarm.com shall have the right to change the pricing on any item of the Alarm.com Services to Monitronics if during any month Monitronics’ volume of accounts created on or After March 1, 2013 […***…].
