Re: Autonomous Shuttle Program
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter of intent ('LOP') by and among the County of Albemarle, Virginia (the "County'), JAUNT, Inc.
("JAUNT") and Perrone Robotics, Inc. ("Perrone Robotics") sets forth the understanding of the parties
relating to an autonomous shuttle development, testing, operation and services program (the "Program")
and the principles and understandings on the basis of which the parties will proceed to organize and plan
the Program and negotiate the proposed agreement(s) among the parties under which the parties will
implement and operationalize the Program.
PREAMBLE:
A. The County, through its Economic Development Authority and its Economic Development Office,
desires to promote economic development and existing business expansion within the County,
and to support Perrone Robotics in its growth and desire to be anchored in the County;
B. The County, as part of its Comprehensive Plan, desires to (i) alleviate traffic congestion in its
urban areas and in the region, (ii) offer its residents environmentally clean modes of
transportation, and (iii) minimize capital expenditures on garages and other transportation
infrastructure;
C. Perrone Robotics, with headquarters in Crozet, Virginia, has created high -skill jobs in the County,
has developed and is commercializing its autonomous software platform for use in autonomous
vehicles ranging from cars and SUVs made by premium brand car manufacturers to one of the
world's largest surface mining trucks to small, mobile robots for personal and professional use;
D. Perrone Robotics desires to develop and launch an autonomous shuttle service for County
residents in collaboration with JAUNT and through a public service corporation or another
appropriate entity (collectively, the "PSC") to be formed by the County, either alone or jointly with
another eligible entity;
E. JAUNT has provided transit shuttles in the County and other neighboring localities for over 40
years, and has substantial experience with operating a shuttle service;
F. JAUNT desires to participate in a pilot autonomous shuttle program to, among other things,
conduct research on the benefits of such a program to the communities and localities it serves, to
achieve cost savings on future testing and launching of autonomous transit services in all the
localities it serves, to understand and implement risk mitigation strategies for such autonomous
transit services, promote public safety, and to eventually launch a commercial autonomous
shuttle service in the County and other neighboring localities that it serves.
G. The parties desire to enter into this letter of intent to, among other things, memorialize their
understanding and agreement regarding a phased approach and planning for the Program,
including the following: (i) development of a communications plan for the Program, (ii) the
development and funding of autonomous shuttle for use in Crozet, Virginia and potentially
elsewhere in the County, (iii) the pilot testing of a shuttle at Perrone Robotics' facility and on
mutually agreed upon routes in Crozet, Virginia, (iv) the exploration of further launches of pilot
projects for autonomous shuttles elsewhere in the County and in other localities served by
JAUNT, (v) the potential retrofit of a JAUNT van to operate autonomously and pilot launches of
such van on mutually agreed upon routes in the localities served by JAUNT, (vi) the solicitation of
community feedback and advice on the Program, (vii) the coordination of a shuttle unveiling and
launch event involving press and VIPs to help draw attention to the Program, (viii) coordination of
meetings among the parties and additional invited parties to discuss broader rollout and
expansion of the Program using a phased approach, and (ix) the collection of data and
refinement of the knowledge base regarding autonomous transit so that, in future phases of the
Program, the parties can collaboratively seek funding from state and Federal sources of funding
for the PSC's autonomous shuttle services in the localities served by it.
Subject to the conclusion of definitive documentation and the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth
below, we propose that the parties proceed in accordance with the following principles and
understandings:
Approval of Program; Public Announcement. The Board of Supervisors of the County
has approved the issuance of a press release contemporaneously with the execution of this LOI, which
release is attached hereto as Exhibit 1. The Board of Directors of Perrone Robotics has been briefed
regarding the Project and has authorized the company's management to pursue it. The Board of
Directors of JAUNT has been briefed regarding the Project and has authorized the company's
management to pursue it. The parties intend to hold a press conference on November 14, 2018
regarding the Program.
2. Development, Funding and Testing of Autonomous Electric Shuttles.
a. The parties contemplate that Perrone Robotics will develop an autonomous electric
shuttle, based on a Polaris Gem or other similar vehicle.
b. The initial testing of such shuttle will be done at Perrone Robotics test track facility in
Crozet, Virginia. Once the safety and operational aspects of the shuttle have been tested,
the parties contemplate that initial trial runs of the shuttle will be conducted, with the
professional safety -trained driver on board, or on a mutually agreed upon route in and
around Crozet, Virginia.
c. The parties will then consider other routes for the shuttle in and around Crozet, Virginia,
with the contemplation that, once tested, the PSC would operationalize the shuttle
service with the collaboration and assistance of JAUNT and Perrone Robotics.
d. Other related projects may include the retrofit of the JAUNT van by Perrone Robotics so
that it can operate autonomously initially on Perrone Robotics' test track, and then
eventually on existing and future JAUNT van routes.
e. The parties contemplate that, at the end of the initial phase of the shuttle launch, there
may be a significant number of autonomous electric -powered shuttles, autonomous gas -
powered JAUNT vans and/or electric -powered buses..
3. Community Feedback; Advisory Committee; Data Collection and Knowledge Transfer;
Risk Mitigation.
a. The PSC will work with key stakeholders in the County to seek feedback regarding the
testing, adoption and use of the shuttle, and the future launch of additional shuttles
throughout the County. Such feedback will be shared freely with the parties to this LOI,
with appropriate confidentiality safeguards.
b. The PSC Board of Directors will be drawn from the business, technical and academic
communities that have a stated interest in the adoption and commercialization of
autonomous shuttle service in the County and beyond.
c. The PSC and the parties to this LOI will also gather data regarding, among other things,
usage of the shuttle, traffic flows and congestion, weather conditions, risk mitigation
strategies, feasibility of other shuttle routes, energy usage, repair and maintenance costs
and the like to further improve and refine transportation services within the County using
autonomous shuttles.
d. The parties intend that JAUNT, Perrone Robotics and the County will be held harmless
by the PSC for any acts and omissions of employees or other resources that may be
provided by JAUNT to the PSC. Further, the PSC will have insurance coverage
reasonably commensurate with its risk profile from national insurance carriers so as to
minimize risk to JAUNT, the County and Perrone Robotics.
e. The parties will meet periodically during the first phase of the Program, and with the
knowledge base and experience gained through the phase, plan for and collaboratively
approach state and Federal sources of funding for the PSC, Perrone Robotics and
JAUNT to pursue broader autonomous transit services in the localities they serve.
f. An objective of the Program is for JAUNT to manage its existing obligations while
supporting its entry into the operation and servicing of autonomous shuttle service in the
localities it serves, with the further goal that the knowledge base and experience of
JAUNT from the initial phase of the Program will benefit transit services in all the
localities it serves.
g. In order to achieve efficiencies and conserve resources, the initial autonomous shuttle
pilot will be run principally on weekends, with limited schedules during the weekdays. It
is anticipated that Perrone Robotics and the PSC will handle the operational and
scheduling aspects of the Program, in coordination with JAUNT, and that JAUNT would
provide support for the PSC and Perrone Robotic's operation of the Program.. It is further
anticipated that two (2) full-time safety -trained drivers, trained by Perrone Robotics and
JAUNT, will participate in the pilot phase of the Program.
4. Budget; Timeline and Future Phases; Clawback.
a. The parties contemplate that the cost of a single shuttle for the first phase of the Program
will be as set forth in Exhibit 2. The County, through its Economic Development Authority,
will grant to Perrone Robotics funds by not later than December 5, 2018, in the amount of
$238,000.00, subject to the terms and conditions of a separate performance agreement
entered into among the County, the County's Economic Development Authority, and
Perrone Robotics. JAUNT has received approval from its Board of Directors to participate
in the Program, with cash and in -kind contributions as set forth in Exhibit 2. Perrone
Robotics will be making cash and in -kind contributions and providing services at a
discount as set forth in Exhibit 2.
b. The performance agreement among the County, the Economic Development Authority,
and Perrone Robotics will include clawback provisions to ensure that the public receives
economic development value from the grant of public funds.
c. The parties further contemplate that the schedule for the development, testing and launch
of the Program will be in accordance with the timeline set forth in Exhibit 3.
5. Term. The term of the LOI will be two (2) years, unless earlier terminated by agreement
of all parties.
6. Confidentiality. JAUNT and Company have previously executed that certain
Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of June 22, 2018 ("Confidentiality Agreement'). Each of JAUNT
and Perrone Robotics hereby affirms that the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement continue to
apply, and in particular to the contents of this LOI and the discussions related thereto. The County has
also agreed to follow its normal protocols and processes regarding confidentiality of certain details of the
Program, subject to applicable laws relating to governmental disclosures of information, including the
Freedom of Information Act.
Other Standard Terms. The definitive development, supply and services agreement
between the PSC and Perrone Robotics will contain standard terms, conditions, representations,
warranties, indemnities and other provisions customary and appropriate to a transaction of this type. The
intention of the parties is for the PSC to be lawfully created on or before March 1, 2019

goals and objectives for the Program set forth in this LOI.
9. Governing Law. This letter of intent shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia without giving effect to its principles of conflict of laws.
10. Binding Effect. This letter of intent is non -binding, with the exception of paragraphs 6, 9
and this paragraph 10, which will be fully binding upon all parties.
We believe that the parties can work expeditiously to move forward with definitive agreements to
implement the principles outlined in this LOI. We look forward to working with you.
