Product Demo Page 4 of 10
2. Ordering 3. Custom Set Up 4. Installation 5. Training 6. Go Live To insure excellence throughout this entire process, the Sunrise team offers the following plan to the management of Sample Restaurant 3.1 Methodology This section will focus on how Sunrise will carry out each of the preceding steps. 1. Product Demo A system is being configured to match Sample Restaurant s requirements and needs. Once configured, a time will be arranged for a member of the management from Sample Restaurant to demo the Point-of- Sale unit including the Amigo Point-of-Sale software. This demo may be conducted at offices of Sunrise in Smithtown. After evaluating the system, representatives from Sample Restaurant will be able to make adjustments to the system prior to ordering. 2. Ordering The hardware components, software packages, set-up and support packages that are outlined in this proposal will be reviewed and adjusted if necessary. Once a sale has been transacted, Sunrise will place an order to have the custom Point-of-Sale system built. The components will be shipped to our systems designer for configuring and set-up. 3. Custom Set-Up This step includes the set up of the system itself, as well as the customization of the system to meet the needs of Sample Restaurant. Sample Restaurant will need to provide the following (electronically if possible): Menu in detail for set up in ordering module Recipes in detail for set up in inventory control Floor Plan to be converted to electronic floor plan display Employee Data for set up in employee manager Miscellaneous Info a primary contact should be provided to the Set-up technician to insure all needed information is available and accurate. 4.

The Sunrise team member will coordinate with the management from Sample Restaurant to schedule the actual installation of the system. IT technicians will be available if needed to assist in the install. Page 5 of 10
5. Training Once the system has been installed, training sessions will be scheduled for key employees. It is advised that at least two employees be assigned to learn the details of the system so they can help train other staff. (Some training is included in the Set-up portion of the initial purchase. Further training is available at an additional hourly rate.) This is also the ideal time to make any adjustments to menu, inventory levels or employee data. 6. Go Live Once the training has been completed, and the system has been updated with current menu, inventory levels, employee data, it is time to go live. A day will be scheduled for Sample Restaurant to Go Live with the new system. A representative from Sunrise will be available in person and via phone to help you begin your transition, answer any questions and solve any potential problems. 3.2 Schedule This section will show the projected timeline that Sunrise Business Services, Inc. is proposing for carrying out the preceding steps. The goal would be to have this plan implemented to allow Sample Restaurant to go live by Mid December, allowing all of the inventory/ sales reports for 2009 to be on the new system. 1. Product Demo Upon delivery of this sales proposal, a system can be configured for a product demo to be scheduled within 2 weeks. Approx Date 11/05 2. Ordering After the product demo has taken place, and a sales agreement has been signed, the system will be reviewed and ordered immediately. (This time-line is based Page 6 of 10
on a sales agreement being signed at the end of the product demo. Any delay in signing of sales agreement will obviously impact the rest of the time line.) Approx Date (arrives to be configured) - 11/12 3. Custom Set-Up Assuming that all of the data is available from Sample Restaurant, the system should be configured and set up within two weeks and ready to ship. Approx Date (ready to ship) 11/26 4.

Included in the price is 90 days of Point-of-Sale System support (training is not considered support and does not count in the 90 days). Manufacturer Support Hardware Support Our IT Partner and Systems Designer, Elementum Solutions, offers 30 days of direct support on hardware components free of charge.

Sunrise, and we will work with the manufacturer. All Hardware Components come with a Manufacturer 3 year warranty included in price. Software Support Amigo Point-of-Sale Software provides 30 days of free phone support (limit of 2 incidents) for new users. Free Email support is available through Amigo s website. Because the software has great stability and is very user friendly, beyond 30 days of going live a pay per incident package is recommended over a full coverage program. After 30 days, Support Technicians are available via phone for $50 an hour. Other custom prepaid packages are available but not recommended as they are usually not necessary nor cost effective to a merchant with this software package. PCCharge If Sunrise can not resolve the issue, PCCharge includes level one support. Remote Access There are several affordable options for remote access. One is by using a program like logmein.com, where the owner will pay a monthly fee of $20 a month or less and have remote access from one of five computers. This option is recommended to be set up on a back office computer to insure that the sales terminals are not interrupted by remote access. Other options include purchasing a program such as PCAnywhere and loading it on a home computer and back office computer. This option is more cumbersome and offers limited access.
