shall be borne solely by Lessee. Lessee shall comply with all site rules and
standards contained in Exhibit A to this Lease.
(b) During installation, Lessee shall not cause interference of any
kind to the activities of Lessor or lessees on the site. If such interference is
caused by Lessee and cannot be reduced to levels reasonably acceptable to
Lessor, Lessee shall immediately halt all installation work, and Lessor may
elect to terminate this Lease by giving Lessee ten (10) days written notice.
5. USES OF LEASED PREMISES.
(a) Lessee shall use the leased premises and conduct its
communications operations in compliance with the terms of its FCC license and
applicable regulations imposed by any other governmental agency. Lessee shall,
if requested, provide Lessor with copies of such permits. If, through no fault
of Xxxxxx, a license is denied, and Xxxxxx promptly notifies and provides
evidence to Lessor of the denial, this Lease may be terminated by Lessee thirty
(30) days following such written notification.
(b) Lessee shall have a non-exclusive right to access the premises
twenty-four (24) hours a day, 365 days a year for its employees, agents, or
representatives as designated. In accordance with procedures in Exhibit A,
Lessee will be issued a key, key card, and/or access code to unlock the gate and
transmitter room for maintenance purposes. This key may not be duplicated,
loaned, or transferred to any other entity. If this key or keycard is lost or
the integrity of security is breached by Xxxxxx, Lessee will bear the expense
for Lessor to
re-tool the locks, reprogram the security system, and provide new keys and/or
keycards for all authorized persons. Lessee shall provide Lessor the name of
Xxxxxx's custodian of the key or keycard; should the custodian change, Lessee
shall notify Lessor, in writing, of the new custodian's identity within
twenty-four (24) hours.
(c) Before performing any installation or maintenance work at a
site, Lessee shall notify Lessor and obtain Lessor's approval of the work to be
performed and the persons to perform the work, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. All contractors and
subcontractors of Lessee who perform any services on the leased premises must be
approved by Lessor in advance which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
delayed or conditioned and must hold all licenses necessary for the work being
performed. Lessee shall maintain a log of the entry and exit of its employees
and agents and shall make the log available to Lessor upon request.
(d) Lessee shall not bring onto the site any hazardous substances or
hazardous wastes.
(e) Lessee shall not cause interference of any kind to the
operations of the Lessor or other lessees at the site in excess of levels
permitted by the FCC, to the extent that Lessor or such lessee had equipment
installed at the site prior to the execution of the particular Schedule (the
"Present Users") as well as interference to consumer electronic devices and
blanketing interference as defined by section 73.318 of the FCC rules. If Lessee
is notified that its operations are causing objectionable interference to the
legally and properly tuned and operating equipment of the Present Users, Lessee
shall immediately undertake all necessary steps to determine the cause of and
eliminate such interference. If the interference continues for a period in
excess of forty-eight (48) hours following notification, Lessor shall have the
right to cause Lessee to cease operating the offending equipment or to reduce
the power sufficiently to remove the interference until the condition can be
remedied. Lessee shall continue to be obligated to pay rent, and Lessor shall
not be held liable for any damages or loss of revenues. If Lessee is required to
discontinue its operation under this section for a period of sixty (60) days,
and provided Lessee has diligently pursued all reasonable cures and is unable to
eliminate the interference, then Xxxxxx shall have the right to terminate this
Lease. Provided Lessee's equipment is operating properly, if the operations of
any equipment installed after Xxxxxx's equipment cause objectionable
interference to Xxxxxx's operation, then Lessor shall require the interfering
lessee or party to remedy the interference and bear the costs thereof.
(f) Lessee understands that it is the intention of Lessor to
accommodate as many users as possible at its sites. Lessee shall cooperate with
Lessor in rescheduling its transmitting activities, reducing power, or
interrupting its activities for limited periods of time in order to permit the
safe installation of new equipment or new facilities at the site or to permit
repairs to facilities of any user of the site or to the site or related.

building(s), or any portion of the premises without the expressed written
permission of Lessor, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed
or conditioned. Any such improvements that are approved by Lessor and made by

(b) Lessee may make changes and alterations in its equipment
provided that (i) such changes or alterations conform with standards of good
engineering practice and the provisions of Section 5, (ii) plans and
specifications are first submitted to and approved in writing by Lessor, which

tower. At Lessor's request, Lessee will provide an independent professional
analysis of "wind loading" and stress to determine any changes that equipment
replacements or alterations would cause. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Lessee shall have the right to perform and do routine maintenance upon its
equipment.
