Dear Mr. Hillesland:
Hills Bank and Trust Company is pleased to respond to RFP No. 14570 for Automatic Teller Machines,
Branch Financial Services, and ID Card Financial Related Services. The bank is proposing a partnership
with the University that reflects technical innovation, personalized banking experience, marketing
excellence, and outstanding financial benefits to the University of Iowa. The program wi ll be implemented
by a project team that is led by senior management and includes technical resources with experience in
launching state-of-the-art campus card programs at major universities throughout the United States.
Hills Bank is proposing a comprehensive program of financial services to the University that will include
full-service branches at the IMU and UIHC, 24 surcharge-free ATM machines, and a campus card
program that will offer ATM and Visa debit capability to students, faculty, and staff. The new Iowa One
Cards with banking functionality will be instantly issued at the IMU. Students will be offered a free
checking account. The bank will introduce the new Iowa One Card program with a well-funded marketing
campaign that ensures the success of the program and promotes high levels of campus participation.
The implementation plan will include a series of re-carding events, starti ng with new student orientation ,
that produce a smooth transition to the new Iowa One Card program .
Hills Bank will invest approximately $4.7 million over the next five years to support the program. The total
monetary value of direct payments to the University should exceed $1 .65 million and will include
guaranteed payments exceeding $1 .0 million. The bank has created a special incentive plan that will
provide revenues to the University based upon card transactions, or "swipe fees."
Our vision for the proposed partnership is unique. Hills Bank was built on strong character, financial
foresight, and traditional Iowa values. As a locally owned community bank and one of the state's
strongest financial institutions with capital in excess of $200 million, Hills Bank is committed to providing
leadership in our community and truly believes in personalized banking, sustainability, and financial
literacy. These are among the reasons that Hills Bank seeks to become the University's partner and
provide financial solutions for all of its students , faculty, staff and alumni.
Hills Bank is proud of its long standing commitment to the community and to the University of Iowa. I
believe our proposal represents the kind of financial commitment, technical innovation , and on-going
support that will provide the University community with unequaled service in the years ahead.
Respectfully submitted,
a~

Executive Summary
Hills Bank and Trust Company has been a community leader
in financial services for more than 100 years and is one of
the strongest financial institutions in Iowa . A subsidiary of
Hills Bancorporation , the bank was founded in 1904 and
operates 14 offices in three eastern Iowa counties, with more
than 425 employees and total assets approaching $2 billion,
along with Trust and Wealth Management Services with
managed assets of $1 billion. The bank is presenting a
comprehensive proposal to provide the University of Iowa
with 24 surcharge-free ATM machines, two campus
branches, and a state-of-the-art campus card program to support the finan cial services
requirements of students, faculty, and staff. Our Iowa City Downtown office located at the
corner of Clinton and Washington Streets will effectively give University students and staff a
third campus branch location. This proposal is in compliance with all stated requirements of
Request for Proposal Number 14570 and reflects a long-term commitment to the University in
terms of technical innovation, personalized service, and marketing excellence.
Hills Bank envisions the Iowa One Card program at the center of student commerce and student
life - and a major factor in student satisfaction. The bank's goal is to build a program that will
provide students, faculty, and staff with convenient access to their money, while offering strong
local support and accountability. To achieve this goal, Hills Bank will implement one of the most
technically innovative campus card programs in the United States. This program will feature
instant issuance of:
1. A new Iowa One Card that includes a free checking account and offers cardholders
access to funds at ATMs and PIN-based point of sale merchant locations.
2. A new Iowa One Card , the Iowa One Card PLUS 1 , that includes a free checking account
and offers cardholders the added convenience of worldwide Visa merchant acceptance.
The proposed business model combines guaranteed payments and incentives that will produce
revenues to the University of approximately $1 .65 million over the next five years, with
guaranteed payments of $1 .04 million as shown in Table 1:

For purposes of this response, the name Iowa One Card PLUS is being used to identify the Visa-bra nded Iowa
One Card. Hills Bank recognizes that the University will decide the card name.

Total five year compensation to the University includes:
A signing bonus of $125,000.
Guaranteed annual royalty payments of $50,000.
Branch rental payments of $613,600 for the IMU and UIHC.
$50,000 toward Iowa One Cardstock and consumables to support University-wide recarding .
Incentive payments of $476,423 based upon "swipe fees" as explained in Figure 1
below.
Incentive payments of $142,680 to campus student organizations based upon "swipe
fees" as explained in Figure 1 below.
Figure 1: Swipe Fee-Based Incentive Payments
"Swipe Fees" are incentive payments to the University based upon 35% of interchange income
collected by the bank from point of sale card purchases, from both PIN-based and signaturebased debit transactions.
Swipe fees will be paid to UI for all PIN-based and signature-based debit purchase transactions
for cards linked to an Iowa One Card or University Employee Advantage checking account,
including:
1. Iowa One Card
2. Iowa One Care PLUS
3. Any Hills Bank Visa debit card linked to an Iowa One Card checking account or
University Employee Advantage checking account.
5
Swipe fees that exceed $50,000 annually will be paid to the University in addition to the $50,000
annual guaranteed royalty payment. The bank also proposes to allocate 7% of total swipe fee
revenues for Student-Run Campus Organizations. The projected swipe fee revenue to the
University is based on a conservative five year account penetration model (please see Section
4.2.3.3.c, page 37) that assumes the bank will capture a percentage of incoming freshman and
transfer students each year in addition to faculty and staff. The swipe fee model assumes a 50%
penetration rate for incoming students by the fifth year and, conservatively, does not include
penetration estimates for the existing student population. In all likelihood, some existing
students will choose to bank on their Iowa One Cards , which will increase the incentive
payments to the University.
Paying the University swipe fees will streamline accounting and provide monthly revenues to the
University. Hills Bank is excited about promoting the use of the Iowa One Card in the merchant
community, and the proposed incentive plan will allow the University to directly benefit from
these marketing efforts.
The bank plans to make additional significant investments in the partnership, including:
$2.0 million for two state-of-the-art facilities at the IMU and the IMHC that will reinforce a
personalized banking experience, including personnel and equipment.
$960,000 for an on-campus, surcharge-free ATM network of 24 machines.
Comprehensive marketing commitment of $220,000, to promote the new One Card at
new student orientation events and re-carding events, including year-round promotional
activities utilizing targeted direct mail, email , online advertising, and initiatives to support
financial literacy.

Hills Bank will work closely with UI to ensure the Iowa One Card supports all current required
card features, and is compatible with the University's technical goals regarding magnetic
encoding of data. Both Iowa One Card solutions can also support financial aid refund deposits

identification numbers for their Iowa One Cards. The program will be completely "opt in."

C. Describe in detail your program of preventive maintenance and regular replacement of worn
and/or malfunctioning equipment.
All ATMs operated by Hills Bank are covered by a maintenance agreement with NCR
Corporation, which is in effect from 8:00 am - 8:00 pm, seven days a week. The agreement
covers the repair or replacement of parts and labor by a factory-trained NCR field engineer.
Each ATM receives periodic preventative maintenance, which improves the performance of
the ATM.
In addition, all ATMs operated by Hills Bank are also covered by a first-line maintenance
agreement (fault call service) with Rochester Armored Car, a third-party company, which is
in effect from 7:00 am - 11 :00 pm , seven days a week. This agreement covers out-ofservice conditions, malfunctions, data communication errors, and other problems that don't
require an NCR field engineer. Rochester also performs the cash replenishments on all
ATMs on a predetermined schedule.
0 . Please explain the security measures in place for the protection of A TM equipment.
19
NCR 6632 and NCR 6622 ATMs will have UL rated cash vaults that meet industry
standards. Subject to University approval, all ATMs will be secured to the floor with an
anchor bolt. All ATMs are alarmed with the alarms monitored 24 hours a day. Cash
replenishment and deposit collection services are performed by an armored car company,
currently Rochester Armored Car. Rochester is also on site with NCR field engineers if
access to the cash vault is needed when servicing the A TM .
E. A TM equipment should fit within the existing space provided at the current locations on
campus. Will this be a problem? If so, please explain.
The ATMs installed by Hills Bank will be of a comparable size or smaller than the ATMs
currently installed and will pose no issues from a space allocation standpoint.
F. Please outline your anticipated transition plan for the installation of new A TMs in the venues
of interest and any potential additional locations.
Hills Bank proposes to work closely with the incumbent to create a smooth ATM transition
for the University. Vendor staging will also be coordinated with appropriate University staff.
G. The University wishes to honor representations made to new students and their parents
regarding the availability of A TMs on campus without surcharge. Please indicate the Firm's
willingness to install equipment prior to March 15 yet delay the implementation of
surcharges on transactions at High Traffic Student Venue ATMs until June 1, 2012.
Hills Bank will work diligently with our ATM vendor to have ATMs in place as soon as
possible. However, ATM vendors are currently facing heavy new order requests due to
changes in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and therefore cannot commit to
meeting the March 15 deadline given the time window between the contract being awarded
and the transition taking place. Hills Bank will not be surcharging transactions conducted at
High Traffic Student Venues at any time during our contract term.
H. If new A TM locations are requested by the University, please indicate how the revenue/cost
sharing of each additional A TM will be determined.
Hills Bank will seek to receive reimbursement for out-of-pocket costs related to the operation
of the ATM in the event ATM revenue does not exceed ATM operating costs. Revenue in
excess of ATM operating costs will be paid to the University.
I.
Indicate any A TM networks your firm presently a member of, i.e. Privileged Status,
MoneyPass, etc.
Hills Bank is part of the Cirrus, Plus and Shazam networks. Our ATMs also accept Visa ,
Mastercard, American Express and Discover Cards. Hills Bank is also a member of the
Shazam Privileged Status Network. See Exhibit I for a listing of Hills Bank ATMs that are
part of Privileged Status.
J. Give a detailed listing of your current A TMs located in Iowa and Illinois. Provide a
breakdown by county within Iowa and include
radius of The University of Iowa.
20
a map of the A TM locations within a 50 mile
Hills Bank has 76 ATMs within 50 miles of UI. It has been our goal to make ATMs
accessible to our customers and place equipment in locations that are convenient to all of
our customers in our community.
For a list and a map of Hills Bank's existing ATM locations, please see Exhibit I: List of Hills
Bank ATM Locations on page 50 and Exhibit II: Map of Hills Bank Branch and ATM Location
on page 53.
K. Please indicate the Firm 's interest in servicing campus A TMs which may be owned or
leased directly by the University.
Hills Bank will own and operate all ATMs included in this proposal. If the University were to
own or lease ATMs, the bank would be willing to assist with coordinating the servicing of
these machines.
a critical business need for
A TMs in these locations to accommodate peak volumes for specific sport seasons and
events. If appropriate, please provide any alternative solutions such as portable options for
A TMs in Carver Hawkeye Arena, and the Kinnick Football Stadium.
L. Despite the lower annual volume of Sports Venues, there is
Hills Bank proposes operating ATMs at Sports Venues and Finkbine Golf Course on a costshare basis. Based on historical transactional data provided , in order to operate these
ATMs with no surcharge the cost to the University would be approximately $400 per month
for ATMs at Sports Venues and $600 per month at Finkbine for the months they are in
operation.
4.2.1.1. ATM Reporting
A. Describe in detail the Firm's ability to provide monthly and annual reporting of A TM
Transactions by location by transaction type.
Each transaction at an ATM is recorded by the SHAZAM network. Transaction information
includes the date, time, cardholder number, transaction number, transaction type, and
transaction amount. SHAZAM issues monthly reports to each ATM establisher, which
provides totals by type of transaction for each ATM operated. These monthly reports
provide the information needed to report A TM transaction activity to the University. The
A TMs also keep track of the total number of deposits, number of bills dispensed, etc.
B. Please provide samples of customary reporting delivered on a monthly and annual basis.
The bank can provide monthly ATM reports to the University that will show ATM transaction
volume. These reports will show the number and types of transactions. The standard
method for delivery of reports is in paper format. Excel files can be securely e-mailed to
selected University employees. The bank can optionally provide copies of the SHAZAM
network ATM reports along with the Hills Bank prepared reports. Hills Bank currently does
not provide this information online.
C. Please explain the Firm's internal process for verifying and reporting data.
21
The bank would be able to provide standard reports to the University by the 15th of the
month for the prior month's activity . Custom reports can be provided upon request to
provide information on trends in transaction activity.
0 . What other types of reports may be of interest to the University?
The bank will create custom reports at the request of the University. Custom reports will be
sent to the University in an agreed upon format and delivery method.
E. What file formats are available for reporting (.pdf, .xis, .bai2, .csv)?
Reporting can be provided in .pdf, .xis or .csv file formats. We will work with the University
to deliver these reports in for format desired.
F. What methods of delivery are available for reporting? (e.g. U.S. mail, e - mail, fax, online,
etc.)
Hills Bank can deliver reports to UI via secured email and would entertain discussion on
developing an FTP site for file delivery.
4.2.1.2. ATM Implementation
A. Based on previous projects of a similar scope, identify any problematic items and how these
issues were mitigated.
Hills Bank would need 90 days for delivery of new A TMs from NCR Corporation. The order
would be placed , and the delivery period would begin , on the date the new ATM service
agreement with the University is signed. Historically, the lead time on orders was around 60
days. Current delivery timeframes have increased due to the high volume of new machines
being ordered to address changes in the American's with Disabilities Act (ADA), which go
into effect in March, 2012.
B. Provide a schedule showing milestone target dates necessary for full implementation of a
resultant contract.
The timeline for ATM installation and milestones for full implementation is shown below:

C. How long do you estimate it will take to install A TM equipment and have the equipment fully
functional?
We want to ensure minimal downtime when the new ATM is placed in service and the old
A TM removed from service. We have addressed this in the past by working directly with the
exiting firm and Shazam to ensure all parties understand their responsibilities and the
timeline of the project.
D. Please explain the Firm's strategy for engaging University stakeholders. Based on your
Firm's experience, identify individuals and/or groups you believe should be involved or have
input in the implementation process, and identify their significance to the process.
Hills Bank will work with the University to establish a list of key stakeholders. We would like
to have a key contact from each location to coordinate specifics related to access to
communications rooms and power. We will deliver project plans to University staff and
conduct meetings as appropriate to keep everyone informed on the progress of the ATM
installations.
4.2.1.3. A TM Financial Partnership
A. Please provide an explanation of revenue or cost sharing opportunities on the attached form
(Attachment D.1).
Hills Bank will operate all ATMs (24) listed in the RFP with no surcharge. We will fund the
entire ATM deployment and ongoing operations with the exception of Sports Venues and
Finkbine Golf Course. Hills Bank proposes operating ATMs at Sports Venues and Finkbine
Golf Course on a cost-share basis. Based on historical transactional data provided, in order
to operate these ATMs with no surcharge the cost to the University would be approximately
$400 per month for ATMs at Sports Venues and $600 per month at Finkbine for the months
they are in operation. The decision to surcharge at these locations would be made by the
University.
4.2.2. IMU & UIHC Branch Financial Services
A. Describe the branch financial services that will be made available to students and
employees.
Hills Bank is prepared to offer a wide variety of financial products and services for the benefit of the
University community . Below is a brief summary:

8 . The University prefers that branch hours follow regular University business hours Monday
through Friday, 8am to 5pm, and an option for extended hours during peak times of student
orientation (/MU location only). Describe how you will accommodate the University and
provide the hours of operation.
Hours will be from 8:00am - 5:00 p.m. (Monday through Friday) at both IMU and UIHC.
This will include tellers and personal bankers proficient in both deposits and consumer
loans. During peak times of student orientation we will provide expanded hours (past 5:00
p.m.) as well as additional staffing as required . The bank is familiar with the need for
additional staffing during peak times during student orientation the first few weeks of each
semester.
C. The /MU and UIHC branches will follow the University of Iowa academic calendar for holiday
observances. Describe how you will accommodate the University and provide a schedule of
holidays the branches will be closed.
24
The branches will be closed for all federal holidays as published by the Federal Reserve
System. Otherwise, the branches will be open during the hours listed in "B" above. The
bank would like to have a dialog with UI about branch hours of operation during holiday
breaks. A list of holidays is provided below:
New Year's Day
Martin Luther King , Jr. Day
President's Day
Memorial Day
Independence Day
Labor day
Veteran's Day
Thanksgiving Day
Christmas Day
D. Please indicate if the Firm will provide some type of financial account with a PIN-based A TM
card for unbankable individuals in the University of Iowa community.
UI staff who do not qualify for a traditional checking account will be able to obtain a Hills
Bank Reloadable PrePaid Visa card with PIN access to funds at the POS and ATM.
This card can be funded by bringing funds to any branch location to make a deposit to the
card , in the same way a traditional deposit can be made. The card would be accepted at
ATM's and anywhere Visa Debit is accepted.
E. Please explain the Firm's plan for staffing branch location(s) . Do you anticipate hiring any
University of Iowa students to work in either of the two locations?
Since Hills Bank established branches in Iowa City almost 30 years ago we have always
hired UI students primarily in the teller area. Based on their aptitudes and class schedules,
the hiring of UI students has been a positive move for both the bank and the students. We
intend to continue this in the future, especially with the two new branches at the IMU and
UIHC.
We would like to have further discussions on the transition of the branch locations,
especially the IMU to insure we are able to work with incoming freshmen during early
orientation sessions in June.
F. Please explain the security measures in place for the protection of each branch location.
G. Based on previous projects of a similar scope, identify any problematic items and how these
issues were mitigated.
25
No problems are anticipated but if they occur they will be handled as quickly and efficiently
as possible. Hills Bank has built and opened several new branches in the last 1O+ years
and has encountered few problems and have opened the branches according to schedule.
H. Provide a schedule showing milestone target dates necessary for full implementation of a
resultant contract.
Our understanding is we are taking over currently leased space and we expect the location
to be fully operational within 30 days of possession date.
How long do you estimate it will take to be fully operational in the branch location(s)
It is anticipated the branches can be fully functional in five days or less after taking
possession of the two branches.
I.
Please explain the Firm 's strategy for engaging University stakeholders. Based on your
Firm 's experience, identify individuals and/or groups you believe should be involved or have
input in the implementation process, and identify their significance to the process.
Consultation with UI facilities management will be necessary in coordinating the bank's
move into the branches at the IMU and UIMC.

B. The University requests that the Firm provide assistance in obtaining the University's own
unique /IN from ANSI. Describe how this will be accomplished.
After speaking with several processors and other references in the industry, it is the bank's
understanding that oversight groups have become very restrictive with regard to allowing
non-financial institutions to own a debit card BIN. The basis for these concerns has to do
with potential fraud and compliance issues. Prior to requesting an llN, Hills Bank would
need to work with the University to review all compliance and regulatory concerns. After
certifying this information with the University, we would work with the ABA and the Iowa
Division of Banking to get their approval to proceed.

E. The University will not allow bank branding on the front of the ID card. Bank branding is
allowable on the back of the card. Please indicate if the Firm is able to comply with this
requirement.
Hills Bank will comply with this requirement.
F. The University will assume no liability for fraudulent use or overdrafts occurring due to A TM
transactions, check writing or POS transactions on accounts provided under this proposal.
Liability regarding lost/stolen cards is between the merchant, cardholder and the Firm.
Describe the customer supporl that will be provided to assist cardholders in the event of a
lost/stolen debit enabled ID card.
To report your debit card lost or stolen , contact us immediately. After bank hours, call
800-383-8000 to cancel your debit card.
Any Hills Bank cardholder can call any office or the call center during business hours, we
can offer the ability to place a temporary block on the card if the card may be just misplaced
while trying to find the card . If after hours, contact our processor, Shazam at 800-383-8000
to report the card lost or stolen and have the card canceled.
G. Describe how lost/stolen cards are deactivated. If a card is found, describe how the Firm will
reactivate the card. Please describe your lost/stolen card policy.
A cardholder will need to contact UI and Hills Bank to report a lost or stolen card .
Replacement Iowa One Card Plus cards will be instantly issued in the Hills Bank campus
branch during normal business hours. Replacement Iowa One Cards with ATM/PIN debit
functionality will be instantly issued in the Iowa One Card office during normal business
hours. Outside of normal business hours, a cardholder will need to follow Ul's current
process for obtaining an "emergency" One Card (without ATM or debit functionality) for use
until the cardholder can visit the school card office to confirm eligibility for either a
replacement One Card.
Cardholders will deactivate lost or stolen Iowa One Cards for campus use by reporting the
card lost or stolen to the ID card office, just like they would today . To deactivate banking
functionality for a lost or stolen card , cardholders will call a toll-free customer service center,
24 hours a day, seven days a week, or visit any Hills Bank branch during normal branch
hours.
Once a card is deactivated (e .g. "hot carded"), it cannot be re-activated as a
banking card.
H. Please provide information regarding the Firm's security policies in place for the protection
of ID card and cardholder related data.
Hills Bank understands that it is very important that we keep all of our customers and
potential customers information private and secure. We have policies and practices that are
continually reviewed by our Audit staff and external examinations to make sure we are doing
30
what we can to protect that data. In general steps are taken to limit the data that staff and
vendors have access to help control the sensitive data. We also take steps to train our staff
on how to protect that data as well outside of the controls that we have put in place.
The instant issuance system used to produce Visa-branded Iowa One Cards meets both
Visa's and MasterCard's requirements for data security, including physical and logical
access controls. It is installed at hundreds of financial institutions who use it to produce Visa
or MasterCard-branded banking cards instantly in the branch.
I.
Please explain how an ID card with Visa or MasterCard debit capabilities would be issued to
A cardholder and the length of time it would take to deliver this type of ID card to individuals
who opt-in to this feature.
An ID card with Visa debit capability could be instantly issued on the UI campus, using
proven technology that is currently in use at several schools . It takes approximately 2 - 2
1/2 minutes to instantly issue a Visa-branded ID card, depending on the amount of
encoding, and whether or not the card is laminated. There are several approaches that
could be taken for issuing these cards on campus, and Hills Bank wishes to consult with UI
to build a custom solution that incorporates Ul's card management capabilities , Visa's
instant issuance security requirements, the Hills Bank campus branch, Ul's orientation
workflow, and potential mass re-carding scenarios.
J.
Please explain data exchange requirements between the University and the Firm to provide
this signature-based debit functionality.
Hills Bank would like to develop a simple, reliable, and cost effective signature-based debit
solution that would enhance the Iowa One Card but not require any data exchange between
Hills Bank and UI. The bank desires minimal impact to Ul 's existing system of card readers
and back end card management system. A Visa-branded Iowa One Card with two discrete
two track magnetic stripes (like the current Iowa One Card) would be the ideal way to
achieve this goal. Colorado State University adopted this approach for its Visa-branded
Ram Card PLUS program, because of inherent limitations with its ID card management
system. Idaho State University recently implemented a similar two magnetic stripe program
for its MasterCard-branded ID.
K. Describe the Firm's ability to provide staff on-campus to assist with the production campus
ID cards during peak carding events.
Hills Bank understands that it is critical to have adequate staffing to assist with card
production and new account opening , particularly during peak carding events. The bank will
provide whatever staffing is necessary to support the card issuance requirements during
orientation, or during the back to school rush in the fall. The bank anticipates working very
closely with UI to customize a staffing model around the requirements of each particular
carding event.
K. Describe the Firm's process for providing a low/no cost, web-based tool to transfer of funds
to student checking or savings accounts. Please indicate whether funds would be available
same or next-day.
Hills Bank will allow the parents of University students the ability to transfers funds to the
students checking account via ACH . We will create an online form for the parent to
31
complete to request the transfer the funds. If the request is made by 3:00 PM Central time
funds will be made available to the student that same day. Parents also have the ability to
send the student a payment via their online Bill Payment solution or P2P solution that they
use today, in addition to a traditional wire transfer.
Hills Bank is currently looking at many P2P solutions that would potential give the ability of
parents to make the transfer to the students account not only online, but with the use of a
mobile device as well. Once available, we would work with the University to rollout new
services as they become available.
4.2.3.1 . Campus ID Cards Reporting
A. Describe in detail the Firm's ability to provide monthly and annual reporting of the number of
accounts attributed to the University, information should be available based on person type

4.2.3.2. Campus ID Cards Implementation
A. Based on previous projects of a similar scope, identify any problematic items and how these
issues were mitigated.
Typical problems associated with implementing campus card programs are outlined below,
along with a description of potential solutions:
Inadequate communication and coordination between the financial institution and the
school. Leadership, relationship management, and careful project documentation is
essential.
Inadequate testing of new cards to assure manufacturing quality and performance at oncampus locations. Technical "surprises" are not unusual and should be anticipated with
a planned multi-testing procedure aimed at "zero defects".
Communicating the program to incoming students for the first time. Direct mail materials
are sometimes delayed by legal reviews causing timing problems in direct mail to
incoming freshmen. This can have the effect of lowering the compensation to the
University. It is essential to work closely with the University to insure adequate time for
obtaining the required approvals so that the marketing plan can be properly executed.
It is important that the program is "transparent" with respect to roles, responsibilities and
accountability. Students may be confused about who is in charge of different aspects of
a program. This can only be mitigated by a concerted and ongoing communications
plan.
B. Provide a schedule showing milestone target dates necessary for full implementation of a
resultant contract.
Hills Bank anticipates that a 5-6 month timeframe will be necessary to launch new Iowa One
Card program. A preliminary schedule including milestone target dates is shown below:

C. How long do you estimate it will take to have all necessary measures in place for the
University-wide issuance of new cards?
Hills Bank anticipates that a 5-6 month timeframe will be necessary to launch the new Iowa
One Cards. The bank would like to discuss with UI options for University-wide issuance of
new cards. The goal would be to start issuing the new Iowa One Cards as soon as possible
during freshman orientation in 2012. The ATM/PIN debit Iowa One Card could potentially
be brought to market faster than the Iowa One Card PLUS. Preliminarily, the bank would
look at fall 2012 to begin mass re-carding activities.
0 . Please explain the Firm 's strategy for engaging University stakeholders. Based on your
Firm's experience, identify individuals and/or groups you believe should be involved or have
input in the implementation process, and identify their significance to the process.
ID Card Office Management, because this stakeholder understands current
operations, carding issues, and can provide insights into strategic planning
objectives.
IT staff, because this group supports systems development for the ID card program.
IT is essential for developing technical specifications, testing procedures, and
timelines . It will be important that the University test new card stock to ensure the
cards work on campus readers. IT can also act as a resource for developing webbased functionality or updating the University's website.
Facilities Management. Consultation with this group will be necessary in developing
plans to construct the branches at the IMU and UIHC.
Marketing, because Hills Bank desires to work closely with the University in
developing a marketing program consistent with the values and interests of the
University.
University Legal department, because of the need for approval of marketing
communications, and potential confidentiality or compliance issues.
35
Office of the Treasurer, because this office will be involved with auditing financial
reports and collecting program revenues.

B. Explain how the Firm will assist financially and functionally with the University-wide issuance
of new cards.
The bank will commit $50,000 for new Iowa One card stock and consumables to support
University-wide issuance of new cards. Hills Bank understands that it is critical to have
adequate staffing to assist with card production and new account opening, particularly
during peak carding events. The bank will provide whatever staffing is necessary to support
the card issuance requirements during orientation , or during the back to school rush in the
fall. The bank anticipates working very closely with UI to customize a staffing model around
the requirements of each particular carding event.
Hills Bank will work closely with UI to develop a University-wide re-carding strategy.
Because Hills Bank is a local institution, it can bring significant resources to bear in order to
support all card issuance scenarios, whether at orientation or mass re-carding . Developing
the right re-carding strategy will require UI and the bank to agree upon how to handle the
new card issuance; for example, will existing Iowa One Cardholders be required to get the
new Iowa One Card with Hills Bank, and if so, does UI intend to "turn off' the existing ID in
circulation after a particular cutoff date, effectively forcing everyone to obtain a new ID?
Understanding these issues will help the bank collaborate with UI with regard to the scale
and timing for any mass re-carding events.
Given the number of ID cards currently in circulation, a phased mass re-carding should be
considered. Existing cardholders with a last name starting with A-E (for example) would
have a scheduled time (e.g. the week of September 1-7 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.) to pick
up their new ID cards. Anyone choosing the ATM/PIN debit Iowa One Card could have their
card waiting for them to pick up at the scheduled time ; these cardholders would be able to
open their Hills Bank checking accounts before or after getting their new cards . Anyone
choosing the Visa debit Iowa One Card would have their card produced instantly during the
appointed time slot. To encourage everyone to get one of the new Iowa One Cards, UI
would need to instruct all current cardholders that after a predetermined date, the old ID will
cease working.
C. Explain how the Firm will pay royalties to the University. Provide a detailed financial
incentive schedule including, but not limited to: ID card stock, signing bonuses, date(s) of
payment to the University on the attached form (ATTACHMENT 0).
Signing bonus: $125,000, payable at contract execution.
Guaranteed annual royalty: $50,000.
Card stock: The bank will make a contribution of up to $50,000 for new Iowa One
Cardstock and consumables.
Swipe Fees: These payments will be based upon the interchange income collected
by the bank for point of sale debit transactions. The amount of the swipe fee will be
equal to 35% of the total interchange income calculated on a monthly basis. Swipe
37
fees will be paid for all PIN based debit or signature based Visa debit point of sale
transactions for cards linked to an Iowa One Card checking account or University
Employee Advantage checking account, including the Iowa One ATM Card, Iowa
One Card Plus with Visa debit, and any Hills Bank Visa debit card linked to an Iowa
One Card checking account or University Employee Advantage checking account.
In addition, swipe fees will be paid to campus student organizations based upon the
interchange income collected by the bank for point of sale transaction . The amount
of the swipe fee will be equal to 7% of the interchange collected on a monthly basis.
The projected swipe fee revenue to the University is based on a conservative five
year account penetration model that assumes the bank will capture a percentage of
incoming freshman and transfer students each year in addition to faculty and staff.
The model assumes a 50% penetration rate for incoming students by the fifth year
and does not include penetration estimates for the existing student population, which
would significantly increase the projected incentive payments to the University.
0 . Please explain whether or not the University will be given credit in the financial incentive
calculations for existing accounts that can be associated back to the University.
Existing checking accountholders may opt to change their Hills Bank account to the Iowa
One Card checking account or University Employee Advantage checking account for the
University to receive the financial incentive.
E. Describe any additional revenue sharing opporlunities that will exist between the Firm and
the University.
