This agreed -upon procedures engagement was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

EXHIBIT A.2 SAMPLE DOCUMENT REQUEST LETTER THAT WILL BE MAILED TO THE CITE' (Date) City of Huntington Beach Re: Utility Users Tax Review of Time Warner Dear We have recently been retained by utility users tax review of Time Warner Communications the four calendar year period from January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2008. In order for us to begin this engagement, we will need certain information and documents from the City, which are set forth below: 1. Franchise Agreements: Please provide us with a copy of the original Cable Television Franchise Agreements between the City and Time Warner, together with any amendments. 2. Transfer Agreements or Other Special Agreements Regarding Utility taxes: Cities sometimes enter into special agreements with cable operators with respect to the computation of utility taxes. For example, in recent years, two of our city clients have entered into special arrangements as part of cable franchise transfer agreements, whereby the cable operator paid an advance payment of utility taxes related to advertising revenues, and the cities then waived the payment of utility taxes on advertising revenues for the remainder of the franchise. Please advise us if there are any separate agreements (oral or written) with Time Warner, or cable operators previous to Time Warner, that would have an impact on the amount of utility taxes paid for calendar years 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008. 3. Utility Users Tax Returns Filed With the City by Time Warner: Our engagement covers the period from January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2008 The City should forward us copies of all utility users tax returns filed by Time Warner for this time period. If Time Warner included any correspondence or supporting schedules with the filings, please provide us with copies of these documents as well. 4. Rate and Channel Information: The City should provide us with: ® A brief summary of actual cable rates for the first and second tiers for the four calendar years from January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2008. • Cable rate cards for the four calendar years 2005 through 2008, showing rates for all cable services provided by Time Warner during this period. • Channel line-up cards for the four calendar years 2005 through 2008. • A copy of a Time Warner monthly bill to a cable subscriber in the City of Huntington Beach. 5. City Map: Please provide us with a city map. This map will be used to identify any odd -shaped boundaries that are contiguous to the County or other cities, where there could be errors by the cable operator in allocating revenues to the proper jurisdiction. Also, please provide an Excel file containing a listing of at least 50 addresses of homes known to lie along City borders. The file should include street address and apartment number, Assessor's Parcel Number (if known), coordinates to City map grid and zip code. 6. Annexations: Based upon reviews of other cable operators, we have noted that utility taxes are sometimes incorrectly reported when areas of a county are annexed to a city, but the cable operator does not accurately adjust its internal records to properly allocate the cable revenue between the city and county. Accordingly, please advise us whether the City has annexed any territory during the four calendar years from January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2008. If so, please provide us with a description of the external boundaries (the external street names), the range of street addresses in the new boundary and, if available, assessor parcel numbers for the new area.

We need to execute an "Insurance and Indemnification Waiver Modification Request" with respect to the $ 50,000 deductible DE&CO has on our "Professional Liability" Policy. 2. We need a Waiver on the wording in Section 8 of the contract, whereby DE&CO will hold the City harmless except for losses caused by the "sole" negligence or misconduct of the City. When we receive these waivers, we will be able to finalize the contract. Also, since we are the current City auditors, and since we recently executed a separate contract to review the City's payroll controls, I assume you have current insurance certificates on file.

"except such loss or damage which was caused by the sole negligence or will misconduct of CITY, CONSULTANT will conduct all defense at its sole cost and expense and qTY shall approve selection of CONSULTANT s counsel. " Reason, The phrase "sole negligence or willful misconduction" appears to shield the City from any liability if City official or employees were "partially" (but not solely) negligent, or where the City was involved in misconduct, althought "not willful". The firm does not customarily sign such agreements.
