DESIGNATION OF CMTV AS CHANNEL MANAGER. The City designates CMTV as Channel Manager of the channel reserved in Exhibit A. This designation terminates if the Comcast Franchise Agreement terminates or expires.

This section and Section 2 immediately below, comprise the entire obligations of the City under this Agreement, notwithstanding any other provision. The failure to provide at least 16 hours each day on average over each calendar week of broadcasting shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement. 2. GRANT FROM PEG FEE SOURCE a. Subject to applicable Franchise requirements for PEG Fee source expenditures that may apply, the City agrees to pay CMTV from the "PEG Fee" resource identified in Exhibit A, a grant of $35,000 for capital equipment and other capital expenditures in accord with the equipment list attached as Exhibit C hereto. The parties agree Exhibit C is a planning document and may be revised, subject to the City's approval and Comcast's review to the extent appropriate, as provided hereafter.

Grantee has historically delivered all PEG Channels available on its Cable System to its customers in the City whether or not such Channels were directly controlled by the City. Commencing on the effective date of this Franchise, and throughout the term of this Franchise, Grantee shall deliver those PEG Channels with whom the City has contracted for service, up to a maximum of six (6) Channels. Grantee shall continue to deliver those PEG Channels so long as the City's contracts are valid and the PEG Channels have content to distribute. The City shall provide copies of all PEG Channel contracts, and contract renewals, to Grantee within thirty (30) days of execution. 3.

All PEG Channels provided to Subscribers under this Franchise shall be included by Grantee subject to applicable law.

For the purposes of this section, non - commercial means private network communications from and among the Ordinance 09 -034 Comcast Cable Franchise Page 10 of 27 ��I Introduction Community - Minded TV LLC (CMTV) is a community- access cablecast station that offers digital production opportunities to citizens and brings the efforts of nonprofit and service organizations to homes in the region. Community - Minded TV is already an established resource for the City of Spokane, an asset that is valued by its citizens and a source of pride for Spokane's leaders. It emulates the leading -edge examples of community -based TV around the country— communities use the cable franchise to create a community asset, a community improvement tool that adds value and becomes a meaningful resource in community members' lives. Purpose Statement and Background Mission: Community- Minded Enterprises (CME) is an entrepreneurial non - profit, 501(c)(3) organization that facilitates initiatives which demonstrate the universal ingredients of vibrant, inclusive, resilient communities. CME Initiatives include: • Community -Based Energy: Programs enhancing sustainable water, air, soil, energy and food. • Community Health: Assistance for families and individuals to access health insurance and preventive health services, coordinated system of community resources and services, and Volunteer emergency medical support. • Family Resources: Technical assistance and early learning services for families, children, and providers, and access and referral to childcare. • Equity & Diversity Community education, mentoring, and employment services for youth, persons with disabilities, and the disenfranchised. • Community- Minded Media: Community access TV and digital media production services and training. • Community Economic Development Small business development, neighborhood revitalization, and business planning services. • Youth Development YSC, youth guilds, PEY Project Description Community- Minded Television proposes to energize the citizenry of The City of Spokane Valley and Council with its' unique approach to Community Access Television. By including the City of Spokane Valley with this new agreement, it will draw from and blend several sources: 1) The best traditions of community TV generally; 2) The best traditions of Spokane Channel 14 and the Spokane Cable Advisory Board; and 3) The mission and organizational strengths of Community - Minded Enterprises. Community- Minded TV proposes to reach out to the Valley citizens with a new fresh look that will encourage all peoples to create programming while bringing special emphasis to youth 18- 25 who can benefit from a creative outlet and medium for their passions as well as engage them in the rich history of the area. History is learned from those whom experienced it, and our focus will be to provide the outlet for the creative talents of these youth, while providing them. with a focus on the citizens who have lived through some moments in America's past. By connecting the creative and technical abilities of the young with the experience of our elderly citizens, The City of Spokane Valley, through Community Minded TV can create an identity with tomorrow's leaders while teaching them about its past. Community Minded TV can also work with the City of Spokane Valley schools to utilize their existing technology and infrastructure to provide classes, teach new software and provide a media outlet beyond the reach of the classroom to create awareness for youth driven projects and concerns. This can also be facilitated with Community- Minded Enterprises' initiative the Youth Sustainability Council which for the last 30 months has been developing strong partnerships throughout the City of Spokane with organizations that provide services or outreach to the youth population. Including the City of Spokane Valley in this initiative and facilitating the expression of the youth ideals would create a sense of identity and culture that can reach beyond the classroom and into the hearts and minds of your citizens. Amount Requested Community- Minded TV proposes the following breakdowns for the capital dollars requested: 35,000 for purchase of See attached Addendum A Community Minded TV brings in to play a strong partnership with KSPS to facilitate and continue the broadcast of the station whose in -kind contribution to this effort would require a minimum of $150,000 for similar infrastructure and $25,000 to facilitate the creation of a new station playlist (as well as operational man hour dollars to facilitate programming ingestation). These costs have already been incurred by CMTV and would save great expense to the City of Spokane Valley's citizens. Conclusion: Community- Minded Television formally requests to continue the operation of Spokane Valley's community access channel and looks forward to engaging the citizens and councils as a community improvement tool that will foster new ideas, understanding and better communication. We would like to encourage the Council to think about the culture of Spokane Valley and the different ways this can be expressed by the citizens, and to encourage and support the citizenry in their efforts to relate to one another through this medium.

Community - Minded Enterprises (CME), Community Cable Channel Manager for Spokane Cable Channel 14, submits this preliminary annual report to the Spokane Valley City Council and staff, and Comcast Cable, as delineated in the April 2011 agreement between CME and the City. The CABLE Advisory Board having dissolved this past year, so are not included in this year's report. As anticipated in the 2007 year, Community- Minded Television's successes during 2008 have pushed forward CME's vision for CMTV to become a community- enhancing resource. Although there have been budget shortfalls since its inception, CMTV has built a stable community resource not only utilized by the general public, but also by nonprofit organizations, service agencies, and disadvantaged young adults. Never before in this community have we seen such a diverse array of quality programming that can be utilized for information and outreach by such an diverse range of organizations and individuals. We look forward to fresh ideas with the desire to expand our efforts in the coming year._ ACCOMPLISHMENTS City Contract Programming Requirement Met: The City's contract stipulated that CMTV broadcast programming and offer classes to the public and CMTV has met these requirements. We currently broadcast 24 hours per day, seven days per week and will continue to do so through this calendar year. Classes for this year began slowly and will be continued through traditional outreach efforts, but resource development and marketing funds remain unclear and we have relied greatly on our parent organization Community- Minded Enterprises to secure a great deal of our fee for service funding and this has resulted in compelling pieces covering a wide range of social and professional services. Operational Budget: The City of Spokane, because of budget restrictions, did not contribute any monies toward operational funds for the 2010 year, which affected CMTV's operational stability. CMTV began offering a fee - for - service capacity for nonprofit organizations, service agencies, and state agencies during the 2008 year; these services expanded their reach in 2009 and in 2010 stabilized and brought in $73,574.46 in production service contracts. Although this number held steadily in 2010 (from $72,815.73), the lack of awarded operational dollars from the City of Spokane and Spokane County has made it challenging to launch and implement full -scale continued outreach and training efforts during 2010. Continued operational resources are needed to launch full -scale outreach efforts to youth and into the self - identified neighborhoods and the desire for a studio location to accommodate the variety of programs and causes has sparked a conversation about creating a Community Arts Center near our current facility, that may provide many opportunities to make our satation more vibrant and linked to the community. News of this will probably be forthcoming in the next year. { x COMMUNITY - MINDED TELEVISION PRELIMINARY ANNUAL REPORT April 20,2011 We currently operate with 1 FTE and 1 PTE employees but are stabilizing community production efforts and outreach with support from volunteers, Coordinating committee members and work - study students. Outreach to /from the Public: Throughout the 2010 year, CMTV has reached out to the Spokane community in diverse ways that have benefited, grown and strengthened Spokane and neighboring communities. Our most notable outreach efforts have been: • Youth Outreach — Over the course of the year, CMTV continued its outreach campaign to disadvantaged young adults through local nonprofit and service organizations, offering technical trainings as a pathway for career development. In exchange for volunteer hours worked at CMTV, we drew an equivalent of hours given toward a class of their choice at a rate of 10 hours per class. This effort has continued moderate success and CMTV has been able to grant scholarship opportunities to 4 students in exchange for hours volunteered. This program targeted these young adults as a way to give them skills they would otherwise not have, making them more valuable to local employers. This program. needs to expand and grant monies will again be sought this year so that we may return to 2008 levels. • Artists Showcase —The second call to artists is finishing, and afresh sampling of local visual and musical art will be hitting the airwaves soon. • TV Guide — In 2009, CMTV began posting its programming schedule on television so program information and descriptions can be found as easily as regular stations. We also branded our station and communications materials with a new logo and colors that speak more about the digital, global society we live in. • c3 i � COMMUNITY - MINDED TELEVISION PRELIMINARY ANNUAL REPORT April 20,2011 Community ProducersNolunteers: CMTV relies heavily on its community producers and volunteers. Since January of this year, community producers have created and submitted 54 unique programs and 3 ongoing series to CMTV for airing. Out of the current 175 programs that are playing on channel 14, 77% of our programming lineup is from community producers. We anticipate the numbers of community - provided programs to CMTV to increase next year, since more residents are being trained in production and we have recently begun creating 3 more series with producers that should turn out more than 8 new programs per month. During 2010, CMTV has been fortunate enough to have the help of 16 dedicated volunteers, four interns and four work study students, for a total of 3,863 hours of volunteer community service. These volunteers have contributed all types and styles of tasks, from playing a key part on video productions, editing and filming their own projects, to assisting us with the cleanliness of the office. CMTV's website and Facebook pages have provided outreach and feedback and have taken over where the Newsletter left off. This provides us with more power to respond to producer requests and more input from our viewers. CMTV Staff: Robert Foote enjoyed his second full year as General Manager of CMTV. Koal Hill was moved to a contract position in May of 2010 and Daniel Reyes formerly of Q6, permanently filled the gap left by Robert while utilizing skills as a producer, editor and camera operator. Daniel has lead the charge in reconstructing the image of CMTV to appeal to youth and encourage young artisans in the community to become more involved. Our most recent program Tour Stop, interviews major label bands as they pass through Spokane and provides their fans with in -depth information about them while highlighting groups, clubs and major happenings that help make Spokane a unique city. These staff members' salaries are supplemented by the larger Community- Minded Enterprises organization, grants, and fee - for - service projects. COMMUNITY - MINDED TELEVISION PRELIMINARY ANNUAL REPORT April 20,2011 Grant and Fee for Service Funding: $73,574 in Grants and fee for service work secured In 2010, CMTV saw downsizing and a shortfall in operating expenditures but managed to secure over $73,000 in fee for service or grant correlated projects. We utilized this funding. for operational staff and have managed to continue the mentoring and growth of individuals that we are known for. All the while delivering some top -notch products that inform educate and advocate for a variety of great organizations in the region. We are currently targeting other grants for CMTV. Programming: The shows currently airing on CMTV include an array of viewer entertainment, information, training and education. This past year, CMTV helped to produce a piece for Washington Humanities entitled Black in Spokane: Not to be Forgotten about Chase and Dalbert, two African American Pioneers here in Spokane and the lasting effect they had on our community, Gulf Coast Blues: Oil in Our Veins, one local biologist's trip to the Gulf Coast Louisiana and the impact there of the BP Oil spill. We moved ahead with offering regularly scheduled programs and our station now offers 17 regularly scheduled programs in dedicated timeslots. Volunteers produced pieces about animal cruelty and the rescue of endangered horses, responsible media's future in the internet age, poetry slams, documentary film and screenwriting workshops, sustainability efforts, global consumption and misuse of resources, yoga programs, economic recovery and ongoing series about our native cultures and the celebration of dance and song, and created weekly segments about local shopping, growing food, and farming organically. CMTV broadcasts multiple public service announcements for nonprofits such as Spokane Neighborhood Action Program, Union Gospel Mission, Born Learning, Spokane Child Abuse and Neglect Center, and also airs an array of public health spots on subjects such as how to get health insurance, the negative effects of drugs and child abuse, and information on recovery from addiction. Please see the attached 2010 CMTV Programs document for a more complete list. Training: Community video production training began in 2007. We started with three introductory classes, since it became apparent early that there was a need for basic digital video training for community members, including a separate certification process on using our more advanced Sony HD cameras. CMTV expanded the training offerings this year to seven classes that focus on video production and graphic design. Gary Edwards became the first community producer to COMMUNITY - MINDED TELEVISION PRELIMINARY ANNUAL REPORT April 20,2011 purchase his own Mac and camera for filming and continues to generate programming for the station as well as began a career as a for -hire camera operator and editor. The classes we currently offer are: • Introduction to Video Production — This class offers the student a chance to create a completed video project in just a day and a half of instruction. In this project -based class, a student will practice storyboarding/scripting, field videography, video editing. • HD Camera Certification — This class gives hands -on experience with a broadcast quality camera and the opportunity to learn advanced tools such as audio controls, white balance, zebras, and much more. Certification is required for community producers who wish to use the High Definition cameras. • Final Cut Pro I— With this professional editing software, students learn the process of digitizing, organization, layers and the skills of being an editor. • Final Cut Pro 2- Students familiar with the software and looking to move toward the next level may take this class to examine working with multi - camera editing, audio sweetening and adjustments, exporting using Compressor and finally burning with DVD Studio Pro. This will give all projects a more professional finished quality and produce great looking deliverables for any client. • Photoshop I— With this software, students learn how to manipulate images, design graphic layouts, and create stunning new images. Photoshop is used in many business applications. • Advanced Video Production — This class is for students wanting to dive deeper into production. Students will learn advanced camera techniques, professional lighting and professional audio setups, and learn to work as a team on live shoots. CHALLENGES Spokane County and Spokane Valley Cable PEG Funding Commitment: In 2007, conversations Community - Minded Television had with elected officials in the County and the City of the Valley were quite promising regarding their franchise renewals and PEG fee negotiations with Comcast. CMTV anticipated receiving a similar ratio of the County and Spokane Valley PEG fees collected as the City of Spokane passed through to channel 14. These monies, however, have been delayed by the ongoing franchise negotiations. This continued delay slows down the growth of CMTV; without the additional County and /or Valley dollars in our budget, CMTV cannot launch efforts as fully as we had hoped.

Here we have posted class outlines and schedules as well as a sample of our works in streaming video. Our fee - for - service graphic design costs and deliverables are posted here and remain among the most competitive in the industry. This year we are focusing energies to make our web page more dynamic and offer download of some of our more requested programs. CMTV is now on Facebook as CMTV Spokane, This forum is working well for exchange of information between producers and volunteers and has helped provide feedback to many programs on the air. CMTV has had this fully running since February of 2010. PLANS FOR THE END OF 2010 AND THE COMING YEAR New Programming: CMTV programs completed this past year or currently in production include these subjects: • SLIHC -A project about the anniversary of Spokane's Low Income Housing Consortium. • The Real Powwow Trail, a feature program that captures the spirit, energy and ritual of Native American language, song and dance and is presented along with interviews and explanations by local Native American Shonto Pete who this year has been joined by Gary Fox to help streamline production. They have been filming many gatherings over the summer and post production has begun on a new season. • The Better Spokane Interviews Series — locally produced programs that discuss environmental, media, and personal issues that develop better people and citizens. • Tour Stop — A local interview show featuring national bands on tour through Spokane, showcasing new music and offering glimpses of Spokane that showcase the city's vibrant and diverse cultures. • Spokane City forum returns for another year of discussing and generating ideas that make Spokane a great community. COMMUNITY - MINDED TELEVISION PRELIMINARY ANNUAL REPORT April 20,2011 Content and programming new in 2010 Bioneers CMTV began airing the plenary speakers from the Bioneers conference and has over 30 programs to date that bring new scientific and global perspectives to the people of the Spokane region. CMTV is also working with local producers on shows such as "Speakers Corner" and "Spokane Roundtable" that will bring personal conversations with some of Spokane's prominent players and advocates. New and. Continuing Partnerships: Community - Minded Enterprises is an organization based on community collaboration and partnership, and CMTV is no exception. Through the past year, we have partnered with The City of Spokane Valley to begin broadcasting their City Council Meetings and are working with numerous groups to create more vibrant local programming. We are also pursuing relationships with other PEG stations to provide programming about democracy building, and sustainable neighborhoods to our viewers and have even thrown in some entertainment on Friday nights with old black and white horror movies from the 50's and 60's, as well as student filmmaker works from local filmmakers and students of Eastern Washington University, Gonzaga, and Whitworth. CMTV Services: CMTV offers video production services for nonprofits, service organizations and state agencies, and recently we expanded our services in graphic design. CMTV has seen community response grow due to our ability to offer design services for brochures, flyers, posters, and web pages. Our lower- than- typical industry rates assist many nonprofits with their marketing budgets. It is our hope to augment part of our operational costs by offering these services. COMMUNITY - MINDED TELEVISION PRELIMINARY ANNUAL REPORT April 20,2011 FIVE YEAR PLAN Below are some of CMTV's anticipated goals and objectives for the next five years. • Capital Needs: As CMTV grows, it will be performing more productions and services in the Spokane community. Over time, this will require more equipment to supplement or replace what we currently have. CMTV is anticipating purchasing in the next five years: higher -end production cameras; additional lights and audio gear; upgrades to our existing editing suites as well as the purchase of additional editing hardware and software; a production vehicle; and hardware for signal broadcast (server node, CG generator). These are just some of the major purchases we will be looking at and does not include smaller items, or the need for a larger CMTV studio. • Staffmg: Currently CMTV has one full -time employee and one part-time employee. By looking at other successful community television stations and our goal for sustainable growth, in five years CMTV would ideally have eight to ten employees. The amount of anticipated production services, trainings and ongoing operations of the station will require more staff support. The positions could include: General Manager, Marketing/Sales Rep., Program Coordinator, four to five Production team members /Trainers, Volunteer Coordinator, and an Operations Manager. • Partnerships: CMTV plans to continue developing mutually advantageous partnerships with local entities in the coming years. Our focus on sustainability could play primarily into the arts and community involvement. While working with a great many organizations around the region, we have created some partnerships that will serve us in to the future. The primary focus of creating a more informed, tolerant and sustainable community will rely heavily on the partnerships we create and support in these tough economic times. • Programming/Viewership: In five years CMTV is planning on programming quality shows that captivate audiences and build viewership. Currently we have six weekly shows with three under construction and many other single programs that pull in audiences. It is our goal to work with community producers to create from 15 to 20 weekly shows that engage audiences and build the channel's audience to a larger capacity. These shows could include everything from a healthy cooking show, business talk show, to community roundtable discussions. All of these shows would have local impact and relevance by promoting community -based solutions to Spokane community issues, allowing all interested residents to express their ideas. Training: In this last year CMTV classes have held steady. We are offering six classes in everything from video production to graphic design. Within the next five years, CMTV would like to offer a larger array of choices to fit communities' needs and demands. t.: c t =fie r COMMUNITY - MINDED TELEVISION PRELIMINARY ANNUAL REPORT April 20,2011 CMTV would like to offer 20 -plus classes in video production, graphic design, motion graphics, post - production, producing, writing, and others. Our hope is to become a main force for training in these creative technology fields within the Inland Northwest. Outreach /Community Involvement: Our goal has always been to be as inclusive of the Spokane community as possible. We live in a diverse community and CMTV believes this diversity needs to be represented on channel 14. Our main objectives are not only to continuously outreach to the general public, but to strategically target our efforts to include minority and underserved populations in Spokane. Working with CMTV's Board as well as volunteers, we want to involve the community through premiers of new shows, fun events, fundraisers, current productions, and many other types of involvement that may transpire. In five years we aim for the Spokane community to see CMTV as a place of excitement and community involvement.
