Opioids Implementation Administrator [email protected]
To: Lincoln County, SD
Rubris Reference Number: CL-2266621
TO LOCAL POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS:
THIS PACKAGE CONTAINS DOCUMENTATION TO PARTICIPATE IN THE NEW NATIONAL OPIOID
SETTLEMENT WITH ALBERTSONS. YOU MUST TAKE ACTION IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE.
Deadline: December 30, 2026
A new proposed national opioids settlement has been reached with Albertsons (“Settling
Defendant”). This participation package is a follow-up communication to the Notice of National
Opioids Settlement recently received electronically by your subdivision.
You are receiving this participation package because your state is participating in the new National
Opioids Settlement with Albertsons.
This electronic envelope contains:


A Participation Form for the National Opioids Settlement with Albertsons that your
subdivision is eligible to join, including a release of any claims.

The Participation Form must be executed, without alteration, and submitted on or before
December 30, 2026, in order for your subdivision to be considered for initial participation
calculations and payment eligibility under the National Opioids Settlement with Albertsons.
Any subdivision that does not participate cannot directly share in the settlement funds, even if
the subdivision’s state is settling and other participating subdivisions are sharing in settlement
funds. Any subdivision that does not participate may also reduce the amount of money for programs
to remediate the opioid crisis in its state. Please note, a subdivision will not necessarily directly
receive settlement funds by participating; decisions on how settlement funds will be allocated within
a state are subject to intrastate agreements or state statutes.
Your subdivision must return a participation form in order for your subdivision to release its claim
and receive funds from the National Opioid Settlement with Albertsons.
You are encouraged to discuss the terms and benefits of the National Opioid Settlement with
Albertsons with your counsel, your Attorney General’s Office, and/or other contacts within your
state.
How to return signed forms:
There are three methods for returning the executed Participation Form and any supporting
documentation to the Implementation Administrator:
Page 35 of 115

Docusign Envelope ID: AB884022-8909-8CE3-82A4-C8936F69046E

(1) Electronic Signature via Docusign: Executing the Participation Form electronically through
Docusign will return the signed form to the Opioids Implementation Administrator and
associate your form with your subdivision’s record. Electronic signature is the most
efficient method for returning the Participation Form, allowing for more timely
participation, and is therefore strongly encouraged.
(2) Manual Signature returned via Rubris Platform Portal: If your entity is unable to return an
executed Participation Form using Docusign, the signed Participation Form may be
submitted via the Rubris Platform Portal. Please utilize the link within the New Opioid
Settlement Notice email in order to upload your entity’s Participation Form directly to the
Rubris Platform Portal.
(3) Manual Signature returned via electronic mail: If your subdivision is unable to return the
executed Participation Form using Docusign, the signed Participation Form may be
returned via electronic mail to [email protected]. Please include the
name, state, and reference ID of your subdivision in the body of the email and use the
subject line Settlement Participation Form – [Lincoln County, SD] – [CL-2266621].
The sign-on period for subdivisions to participate in the National Opioid Settlement with
Albertsons ends on December 30, 2026.
If you have any questions about executing the Participation Form, please contact your counsel, the
Opioids Implementation Administrator at [email protected], or Amanda Miiller,
Deputy Attorney General in the South Dakota Office of the Attorney General, at
[email protected].
Detailed instructions on how to sign and return the Participation Form, including changing the
authorized signer, can be found at https://nationalopioidsettlement.com/. You may also contact
[email protected].
Thank you,
National Opioids Implementation Administrator for Albertsons
The Implementation Administrator is retained to provide the settlement notice required by the

The governmental entity identified above (“Governmental Entity”), in order to obtain and
in consideration for the benefits provided to the Governmental Entity pursuant to the Settlement
Agreement dated August 20, 2026 (“Albertsons Settlement”), and acting through the undersigned
authorized official, hereby elects to participate in the Albertsons Settlement, release all Released
Claims against all Released Entities, and agrees as follows.
1. The Governmental Entity is aware of and has reviewed the Albertsons Settlement,
understands that all terms in this Participation and Release Form have the meanings defined
therein, and agrees that by executing this Participation and Release Form, the
Governmental Entity elects to participate in the Albertsons Settlement and become a
Participating Subdivision as provided therein.
2. The Governmental Entity shall promptly, and in any event no later than 14 days after the
Reference Date and prior to the filing of the Consent Judgment, dismiss with prejudice any
Released Claims that it has filed. With respect to any Released Claims pending in In re
National Prescription Opiate Litigation, MDL No. 2804, the Governmental Entity
authorizes the Plaintiffs’ Executive Committee to execute and file on behalf of the
Governmental Entity a Stipulation of Dismissal with Prejudice substantially in the form
found at [website link to national settlement website to be provided].
3. The Governmental Entity agrees to the terms of the Albertsons Settlement pertaining to
Participating Subdivisions as defined therein.
4. By agreeing to the terms of the Albertsons Settlement and becoming a Releasor, the
Governmental Entity is entitled to the benefits provided therein, including, if applicable,
monetary payments beginning after the Effective Date.
5. The Governmental Entity agrees to use any monies it receives through the Albertsons
Settlement solely for the purposes provided therein.
6. The Governmental Entity submits to the jurisdiction of the court in the Governmental
Entity’s state where the Consent Judgment is filed for purposes limited to that court’s role
as provided in, and for resolving disputes to the extent provided in, the Albertsons

K-1

Settlement. The Governmental Entity likewise agrees to arbitrate before the National
Arbitration Panel as provided in, and for resolving disputes to the extent otherwise
provided in, the Albertsons Settlement.
7. The Governmental Entity has the right to enforce the Albertsons Settlement as provided
therein.
8. The Governmental Entity, as a Participating Subdivision, hereby becomes a Releasor for
all purposes in the Albertsons Settlement, including without limitation all provisions of
Section X (Release), and along with all departments, agencies, divisions, boards,
commissions, districts, instrumentalities of any kind and attorneys, and any person in their
official capacity elected or appointed to serve any of the foregoing and any agency,
person, or other entity claiming by or through any of the foregoing, and any other entity
identified in the definition of Releasor, provides for a release to the fullest extent of its
authority. As a Releasor, the Governmental Entity hereby absolutely, unconditionally, and
irrevocably covenants not to bring, file, or claim, or to cause, assist or permit to be brought,
filed, or claimed, or to otherwise seek to establish liability for any Released Claims against
any Released Entity in any forum whatsoever. The releases provided for in the Albertsons
Settlement are intended by the Parties to be broad and shall be interpreted so as to give the
Released Entities the broadest possible bar against any liability relating in any way to
Released Claims and extend to the full extent of the power of the Governmental Entity to
release claims. The Albertsons Settlement shall be a complete bar to any Released Claim.
9. The Governmental Entity hereby takes on all rights and obligations of a Participating
Subdivision as set forth in the Albertsons Settlement.
10. In connection with the releases provided for in the Albertsons Settlement, each
Governmental Entity expressly waives, releases, and forever discharges any and all
provisions, rights, and benefits conferred by any law of any state or territory of the United
States or other jurisdiction, or principle of common law, which is similar, comparable, or
equivalent to § 1542 of the California Civil Code, which reads:
General Release; extent. A general release does not extend to claims that
the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her
favor at the time of executing the release that, if known by him or her
would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or
released party.
A Releasor may hereafter discover facts other than or different from those which it knows,
believes, or assumes to be true with respect to the Released Claims, but each Governmental
Entity hereby expressly waives and fully, finally, and forever settles, releases and
discharges, upon the Effective Date, any and all Released Claims that may exist as of such
date but which Releasors do not know or suspect to exist, whether through ignorance,
oversight, error, negligence or through no fault whatsoever, and which, if known, would
materially affect the Governmental Entities’ decision to participate in the Albertsons
Settlement.

11. Nothing herein is intended to modify in any way the terms of the Albertsons Settlement, to
which Governmental Entity hereby agrees. To the extent this Participation and Release
Form is interpreted differently from the Albertsons Settlement in any respect, the
Albertsons Settlement controls.
I have all necessary power and authorization to execute this Participation and Release Form
on behalf of the Governmental Entity.

party of the material breach, and (b) such material breach is not cured or resolved within thirty (30) days of notification,
or, in the case of a failure to pay fees in a timely manner by Customer, the material breach is not cured or resolved in a
fifteen (15) day period.
11.3
Customer may terminate any Order Form at any time, however termination pursuant to this Section
11.3 shall not result in any refund of payments made or payable to Frost Solutions during the current Term, but only
results in the termination of automatic renewals and any future payments caused by such automatic renewals no
longer being due to Frost Solutions.
11.4
Upon expiration of the Term or termination of this Agreement or any Order Form, Customer’s access
and use of the Application Services and all of Customer’s licenses and rights under this Agreement and/or the relevant
Order Forms shall cease immediately.

subscription price for replacing such unit(s).

withheld or delayed, to: (a) allow Frost Solutions to use Customer’s name and logo in Frost Solutions’ customer list, on

14. MISCELLANEOUS
14.1
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject
matter herein, supersedes all prior agreements and Customer purchase order terms, whether written or oral, and

stated otherwise in the applicable Exhibit or Order Form. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary therein, no
terms or conditions stated in any other Customer order documentation (excluding Order Forms and Statements of
Work) or in any Frost Solutions documentation shall be incorporated into or form any part of this Agreement, and all

14.4
In no event shall either party be liable to the other party, or be deemed to have breached this

action taken by a governmental or public authority, including imposing an embargo.

SOWs), without consent of the other party, to an Affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate
reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets not involving a direct competitor of the other party or to an
Affiliate of such competitor. Any attempt by a party to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement in breach of
this Section shall be void and of no effect. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of
the parties, their respective successors and permitted assigns.
14.6
No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right under this Agreement shall constitute a
waiver of that right. Other than as expressly stated herein, the remedies provided herein are in addition to, and not

14.7
If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity,

EXHIBIT A
SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT
AVAILABILITY
Frost Solutions shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Application Services generally available twenty
four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week at a rate of 90% uptime, (“Uptime Commitment”) except for: (i) planned
downtime, which shall be any period for which Frost Solutions provides at least eight (8) hours’ notice that the
Application Services will be unavailable; (ii) any unavailability caused by circumstances beyond Frost Solutions’
reasonable control, including without limitation, computer or telecommunications failure or delays involving hardware
or software not within Frost Solutions’ possession or reasonable control, and network intrusions or denial of service
attacks; (iii) any period of unavailability lasting sixty (60) minutes or less; or (iv) a disruption in the connection between
the server on which Application Services is located based on a failure of Customer’s connection to the public Internet or
a general failure of the public Internet not related specifically to Application Services’ infrastructure. If Frost Solutions
fails to meet the Uptime Commitment for two (2) consecutive calendar months or fails to meet the Uptime Commitment
for any three (3) calendar months within any twelve (12) month period, then by notice given within thirty (30) days after
the end of the month which triggered Customer’s right of termination, Customer may terminate this Agreement, and
receive a refund of any pre-paid fees for periods after the effective date of termination. The provisions of this Service
Level Agreement state Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy for any service level deficiencies of any kind.
SUPPORT
Frost Solutions will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Application Services support to Customer
comprised of (i) on-line access to the Frost Solutions support at [email protected]; and (ii) Frost Solutions’
telephone support at 312- 767-9423. Frost Solutions will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to Customer’s
inability to access the Application Services or a component of the Application Services which had previously performed
as expected within the guidelines laid out above.

Not a Surveillance Camera:
What the Frost Unit Actually
Does

Anytime a new camera goes up in a community, people ask good questions. Who is
watching? What is being recorded? Where does it go?
Here are the straight answers. The Frost unit points at the road, not at people. It
exists to help organizations see, forecast, and document winter road conditions, so

Page 113 of 115

they can pretreat, respond faster, and keep the public safe in hazardous winter
weather.

What the unit measures
The Frost Mini-Weather Station is a rugged, solar-powered mini-RWIS (Road
Weather Information System). It captures conditions at the exact site like road
surface temperature, humidity, dew point, frost potential, visibility, and a site photo
to alert you the moment conditions change, and delivers a hyperlocal 72-hour
forecast.

Why operators keep them
Real-time visibility. Decisions get made on conditions at your site, not a regional
forecast written 40 miles away. One New England public works director had crews
treating for black ice before commuting traffic arrived.
Smarter dispatching. Crews deploy when they're needed and hold when they
aren't, cutting overtime, fuel, and equipment wear.
Lower material costs. Warmer pavement means less salt. A Midwest contractor
estimated $15,000 saved in a single month on salt and wages. Less over-salting also
means less damage to interior flooring, driveways, vehicles, and landscaping.
Proof of work. Time-stamped images show when and why work was done,
whether you're holding a contractor accountable, deciding on a school closure, or
answering a customer months later.

How this differs from Flock cameras
Flock cameras read the license plates of passing cars and then collect and store the
data for future investigations.
A Frost unit is a weather instrument that happens to include a camera, and that
camera points at the ground. Its job is to show pavement, snow cover, standing
water, and whether the plow came. Frost is not used for license plate
recognition, facial recognition, or tracking of any kind.

Page 114 of 115

What gets recorded, and who can see
it
Frost is not real-time only. Observations, images, and forecasts are recorded and
stored, because customers rely on that history for slip-and-fall cases, crew training,
operational improvements, and proving a servicing event happened.
Frost Solutions and the customer own the images, and Frost Solutions is the
custodian. Access is limited to authorized Frost Solutions employees and the
individuals a customer designates.
