If installation of the Equipment requires relocation of existing communication equipment
(to include coax cable, antennae,brackets,hardware, etc.)owned by other communication
carriers, Lessee shall be responsible for obtaining the consent of such carriers and all costs and
labor associated with these modifications shall be the responsibility of the Lessee and shall be
considered to be an integral part of this Lease. Any agreements among various communication
carriers associated with these modifications shall be the responsibility of the Lessee. Lessee

attachment of Lessee's equipment,for the relocation of existing equipment owned by other
carriers,for any modifications to the Water Tower,and for the installation of any personal
property owned by the Lessee that is to be located on the Property or attached to the Water
Tower,must be approved by Lessor,which approval may be conditioned or withheld by Lessor
in Lessor's sole discretion. Lessor may also require proof of Lessee's ability to pay for all work

contractors.
Any personal property owned by Lessee,whether fixed or attached to the Property or the

solely Lessee's. No Equipment shall be permanently attached or welded to the Water Tower
without Lessor's prior written approval. If welded attachments are approved,Lessee shall be

Lessee shall have the duty to remove its Equipment as set forth herein,repairing any damage
caused in the process, and the parties shall have those rights and obligations that are to survive
the termination of this Lease.
Lessee,at its sole cost and expense,may temporarily relocate its Equipment during a
Maintenance Period to a different location on the Water Tower provided,however: a)that the
duration of such relocation shall not exceed the Maintenance Period;b)that relocation space is
available on the Water Tower at a location sufficient to meet Lessee's coverage or engineering
needs and sufficient to allow the required maintenance to be performed by Lessor; c)that the

not cause interference with any other equipment located on the Water Tower; e)that the

the COW is approved in writing in advance by Lessor.
The cost of painting and repairing the Water Tower shall be borne by Lessor,unless

or,at Lessor's option,reimburse Lessor for Lessor's costs and expenses incurred in such repair.
The cost of painting Lessee's Equipment shall be borne by Lessee,and shall be performed
routinely to maintain the appearance of the Equipment and shall be the same color as the Water
Tower and must have prior written approval of Lessor. Lessor will not be responsible for
damage to the Lessee's equipment while Lessor is performing maintenance on the Property or
the Water Tower, except to the extent such damage is caused by the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of Lessor.
8. Representations and Warranties of Lessee

the Equipment shall comply with all Regulatory Requirements.

Equipment.

party,which default is not cured within thirty(30) days of receipt of written notice of
default(without,however,limiting any other rights available to the parties pursuant to
other provisions hereof);
(b) Upon thirty(30)days written notice by Lessee if Lessee is unable to
obtain or maintain,through no fault of Lessee, any license,permit or other governmental

business, including its ability to manage a PCS network pursuant to which the space is
leased and the Equipment will be installed; or
(c) By Lessor by giving Lessee twelve (12)months written notice that the

Priority User needs to use the Property for a use which is incompatible with Lessee's use

unreasonably interfering with the Equipment of a Priority User,provided that Lessor first
gives Lessee written notice of such interference and thirty(30)days within which to

Lessee may terminate this Lease other than as expressly provided above at any time, so
long as Lessee pays to Lessor as liquidated damages for early termination, twelve(12)

performance bond or cash("Security")in the amount of$10,000 to secure Lessees compliance

and failure to keep the Security current shall constitute a default by Lessee.
In addition to termination of this Lease, Lessor shall have all other rights and remedies
available to it at law or in equity(including an action for money damages or injunctive relief) in
the case of a Lessee default that remains uncured for a period of thirty(30)days after written
notice to Lessee;provided however that if a non-monetary default cannot reasonably be cured
within the 30-day period,this Lease may not be terminated if Lessee commences action to cure
the default within the 30-day period and proceeds with due diligence to fully cure the default..
