RESOLUTION
A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A
CONTRACT AND ALL APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS WITH PROPERTY
BUREAU, INC. FOR ON -LINE AUCTIONING OF SURPLUS ITEMS FROM
THE POLICE DEPARTMENT'S PROPERTY AND EVIDENCE ROOM AND

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
The Police Department's Property and Evidence Room is consistently overstocked with
items that are eligible for auction. The rightful owners are not easily identified and once
the items are no longer needed as evidence they must be disposed of properly. While
awaiting the yearly City Auction, some of these items may deteriorate (i.e. cell phone
batteries, etc.) and /or decrease in value.
Property Bureau, Inc. is a national company that picks up auctionable items from Police
Departments on a monthly basis and offers them for sale online on the internet 24 hours a
day, seven days a week for maximum exposure with 50% of the proceeds paid to the
Police Department. At this time, they are the only company offering this service.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Property to be Sold. From time to time, Owner will designate items of personal property (the "Property ") that it
desires to provide to PropertyBureau for Disposition Services. PropertyBureau retains the right to accept or reject
certain items in its sole discretion.
2. Title. Owner shall retain legal title to the Property until it is purchased by auction or otherwise disposed of in
accordance with this Agreement at which time Owner will be deemed to have transferred title to the purchaser or other
acquirer of the item of Property. Owner appoints PropertyBureau as its attorney -in -fact to sign any and all documents
necessary to assign to purchasers of Property all of Owner's right, title and interest in and to Property sold or disposed.
All cash receipts, accounts receivable, contract rights, notes, general intangibles, and other rights to payment of every
kind, arising out of the sales and dispositions of Property (collectively the "Proceeds ") belong to Owner, subject to
PropertyBureau's right to PropertyBureau's Net Proceeds and funds attributable to Credit Card Costs and other
transaction costs. Owner's Property shall, at all times before sale or disposition, be subject to the direction and control of
Owner.
3. Method of Selling Property. PropertyBureau will, on Owner's behalf, list Property for sale by auction to the public
on the World Wide Web of the Internet on one or more domain names selected by PropertyBureau. To the extent that
any Property is not sold by auction, PropertyBureau may, in any commercially reasonable manner selected by
PropertyBureau, dispose of Property. PropertyBureau will determine all aspects, terms and conditions of auctions of
Property and dispositions of Property not purchased at auction, subject to the ultimate control of Owner. PropertyBureau
will be responsible for all phases of submitting the Property for auction, including, but not limited to, determining when
Property will be auctioned, setting the opening and reserve prices of Property, if any; determining the selling price,
setting the length of time a Product will be auctioned; creating text and graphics to describe and depict Property
submitted for auction; collecting all purchaser information (such as purchaser's name, billing address, shipping address,
and credit card information); approving purchasers' credit card purchase transactions; and collecting auction proceeds
for completed sales from purchasers. PropertyBureau shall use its best efforts in auctioning and selling the Property on
the Internet and disposing of Property that does not sell at auction. PropertyBureau shall sell and dispose of all Property
"as is" without any liability to the Owner. PropertyBureau is solely responsible for identifying and resolving sales and use
tax collection issues arising from Property sales, including the necessity of charging and collecting such taxes.
4. Allocation of Sales Proceeds.
a. The total amount paid by the purchaser shall be called the "Sales Price ". The Sales Price shall include the
winning bid amount (the "Winning Bid ") and all costs, shipping and handling charges, taxes, and insurance costs
associated with the transaction and paid by the purchaser.
b. For each item of Property, Owner will be credited with 50% of the first $1,000 of the Winning Bid and
75 %0 of the portion, if any, of the Winning Bid that exceeds $1,000. From this amount, the owner's pro rata
share of transaction fees, if any, assessed by the credit card processor ( "Credit Card Costs ") will be
deducted.
c. Credit Card Costs will be borne by Owner and PropertyBureau in proportion to the percentage of the revenue
credited to the parties for each underlying transaction.
d. Amounts received by the Owner will be called "Owner's Net Proceeds ".
The following example illustrates how proceeds of a sale are to be allocated. Assume an item of Property sells at
auction for a Winning Bid of $100; the buyer pays shipping and handling of $10, insurance of $2, and sales tax of $6.
The buyer pays the Sales Price of $118.00 by credit card, and the Credit Card Costs are 2% of the Sales Price. The
Credit Card Cost is therefore $2.36 ($118 x .02). The Owner and PropertyBureau each share 50% of the underlying
Winning Bid, therefore Credit Card Costs are also shared equally ($1.18 each). The Owner's Net Proceeds are $48.82
($50.00 less $1.18).
5. Payment Terms. Not later than the 15`h of each month, PropertyBureau will pay to Owner the amount of Owner's
Net Proceeds payable for completed sales during the preceding month. Sales are deemed completed when all items
comprising a line item on the original manifest or other list of Property are sold. With each monthly payment,
PropertyBureau will deliver to Owner a detailed report of completed sales activity for the preceding month showing
PropertyBureau's calculation of the amount of Owner's Net Proceeds for the month. With each payment of Owner's Net
Proceeds, PropertyBureau will deliver to Owner a written report setting forth the following information for the immediately
preceding month: (i) the completed sales during the prior month, including the total amount of related proceeds collected,
the Owner's and PropertyBureau's share of Credit Card Costs, the Owner's Net Proceeds; (ii) other dispositions of
Property during the month; (iii) the Property, if any, inventoried by PropertyBureau at the end of the month.

Today's law enforcement agencies have property rooms full of stolen or
forfeited goods. The rightful owners are not easily identified, and once
merchandise is no longer needed as evidence, it must be disposed of properly.
Enter Property Bureau. Founded and managed by former police officers,
Property Bureau harnesses the power of the Internet to quickly move items out
of police property rooms, reduce personnel costs and generate revenue well
beyond traditional police auction methods. And there is no cost to the
participating police or sheriffs department.
Property Bureau has taken full advantage of the Internet's potential by creating
PropertyRoom.com, an online auction site that gives property room items
maximum exposure, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It's a dynamic
marketplace that provides buyers with a huge array of products to choose
from. As opposed to selling in lots, each item is merchandised individually with
a photo and description, generating revenue much higher than traditional
offline police auctions. Site traffic is driven by offline and online advertising and
public relations campaigns.
As a feature of its unique patent - pending inventory management system,
Property Bureau uses proprietary bar coding methods to manage the tracking
and merchandising of property room items and their placement on the
Internet. All items are tracked by case or control number, with on- command
reports available for auditing purposes. Property Bureau is responsible for all
fulfillment and customer service functions, which relieves participating
departments of burdensome management functions.
As an additional feature of its unique approach to online auctions, Property
Bureau has established SteaiitBack.com, the nation's only privately owned
national registry of stolen goods. Private citizens are invited to register on
SteaiitBack.com any items with serial numbers they have lost or reported
stolen to their local police department. SteaiitBack.com will search its
database, and if an item has been received from a participating department,
will return the item to the police department where the theft or loss was
originally reported so that it may be returned to its rightful owner free of
charge.
Bottom line, a partnership with Property Bureau will reduce personnel and
space requirements dedicated to excess property and will yield dramatically
increased auction revenues that law enforcement agencies and cities can use
for such needs as additional personnel, new equipment and facilities.

To Whom It May Concern:
This is a letter of recommendation for the Police Department's usage of "Property
Bureau." The company is located at 3559 Camino Mira Costa, Suite C, San
Clemente, CA 92672. The Fullerton Police Department began its relationship with
the Property Bureau in January of 2001. We have been very pleased with the
company and impressed with its service.
The Property Bureau is an on -line auction company. They have been very
convenient for the Fullerton Police Department because they pick .up articles of
property. Their edge over other auction houses is they make an effort to
repackage or spruce up the items prior to auction. The Department has received
approximately $5,000 in revenue from the Property Bureau. We have found them
to be a very reputable company and have no unresolved issues or discrepancies
with the company.
The Fullerton Police Department highly recommends the use of the Property
Bureau for disposal of excess property.
With best regards,
P TRICK E. McKINLEY

managed by former police officers,
we have developed and deployed a
way to leverage these goods into addi-
tional funding for our partnered law
en%rcement agencies. ,
z
We've taken full advantage of the
Internet's potential by creating
Steal It Back.com, an online auction
site that gives property room items
maximum exposure, 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week.
It's a dynamic marketplace that
provides our customers with a huge
array of products to choose from.
As opposed to selling in lots, each
item is merchandised individually
with a photo and description, gen-
erating revenue much higher than
traditional offline police auctions.
Site traffic will be driven by offline
and online advertising and public
relations campaigns.
Bottom line, a partnership with
Property Bureau and Steal It Back. com
will yield dramatically increased
auction revenues that law enforce-
ment agencies -can use for such
needs as additional personnel, new
equipment and facilities.
