LICENSE AGREEMENT
BEAR MOUNTAIN SITE
THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT (“Agreement” or “License”) is made this _____ day of
_________________, 2015 by and between LA RUE CALIFORNIA SITES, LLC, a California
limited liability company (“Licensor”) and the COUNTY OF FRESNO, a political subdivision
of the State of California, with its principal office at 2220 Tulare Street, 21st Floor, Room 2101,
Fresno, CA 93721-2106 (“Licensee”). Licensor and Licensee are at times collectively referred
to herein as “Parties” or individually as a “Party.”
RECITALS
A. Licensor owns certain improvements, including a communications tower (the
“Tower”) and an adjacent building (the “Building”), located on certain real property in the
County of Fresno, State of California, commonly referred to as the Bear Mountain Site, as
described on Exhibit “A”, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. Licensor leases
the underlying real property whereupon the improvements are situated from a third-party
landowner (the “Ground Lease).” That portion of the Tower and the “Equipment Room” in the
Building where Licensee is permitted to install, operate and maintain certain communications
equipment shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Premises.”
B. Licensor wishes to grant a non-exclusive license to Licensee for the purpose of
permitting Licensee to install, operate and maintain certain equipment on the Premises, and
Licensee wishes to obtain such a license from Licensor. The equipment to be installed, operated
and maintained on the Premises shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Approved
Equipment,” and a list of the Approved Equipment, along with a diagram setting forth the
permitted location of the Approved Equipment, is part of Exhibit “A.”

C. Licensee presently occupies the Premises as a holdover tenant under an expired
Lease Agreement between Licensor, as Lessor, and Licensee as Lessee, and Licensee presently
has certain Approved Equipment installed on the Premises as set forth in the attached Exhibit
“A” to this Agreement. The parties now desire to recharacterize their relationship with respect to
Licensee’s use of the Premises as that of Licensor/Licensee to be subject to the terms of this
Agreement and to supersede any previous arrangement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the following mutual exchange of promises and
covenants and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged by the parties, the parties agree as follows:
1. GRANT OF LICENSE.
(A) Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, Licensor hereby grants to Licensee a
non-exclusive license to install, maintain and operate its Approved Equipment at the Premises.
In no event shall Licensee’s license as granted herein include rights to use in any fashion the air
space above the Approved Equipment, and Licensor reserves the right to install, construct and/or
operate additional improvements or equipment of Licensor above or below Licensee’s Approved
Equipment or shelter (commonly referred to as “stacking”), provided that such additional
improvements or equipment do not materially interfere with the access to and the operation of
the Approved Equipment or Licensee’s shelter. Licensee shall have no real property rights or
interest in the Premises other than those contractual license rights as specifically set forth in this
Agreement. Licensee’s transmitting and receiving frequencies shall be as set forth on Exhibit
“A.” Licensee shall not co-license or allow in any fashion joint co-use of the licensed portion by
any other person or entity. Licensee shall not increase the size or location of its transmitter or
antennas without first obtaining the consent of Licensor.

(B) Licensor is entitled to possession of the Premises throughout the Term of this
Agreement and any renewal Term. Licensor represents and warrants that it has the full right,
power, and authority to execute this Agreement and warrants that Licensee shall have quiet
enjoyment of the licensed portion of the Premises during the Term of this Agreement or any
renewal of the Term. Licensor hereby represents and warrants that it has obtained all necessary
approvals and consents, and has taken all necessary action to enable Licensor to enter into this
Agreement and allow Licensee to install, maintain, repair, replace and operate the Approved
Equipment on the Premises, including without limitation, approvals and consents as may be
necessary from other licensees, tenants or other authorized users of the Tower and/or Building.
(C) Licensor reserves the right to license portions of the Tower and Building to other
parties during the Term of this License or any renewal of the Term. Licensee acknowledges that
the removal or alteration of equipment that does not belong to Licensee by any of its employees,
agents, contractors or any other person acting for or on its behalf would cause substantial harm to
Licensor, and therefore Licensee agrees not to permit any of its employees, agents, contractors or
any other person acting for or on behalf of Licensee to remove or alter any equipment located
upon the Tower or in the Building that does not belong to Licensee.
(D) Licensor hereby grants to Licensee the non-exclusive right to use Licensor’s right
of ingress to and egress from the Premises for the purposes of constructing, installing,
maintaining, operating, replacing and repairing on the Premises its Approved Equipment as set
forth in Section 7 of this Agreement. Upon execution of this Agreement, Licensor shall deliver
to Licensee all necessary keys and combinations to facilitate Licensee’s use of Licensor’s right
of ingress to and egress from the Premises.

(E) Licensee may use the Premises only for the receipt and transmission of radio
communications and microwave signals as shown on Exhibit “A” of this Agreement and, if such
licensure is required, licensed to Licensee by the Federal Communications Commission
(“FCC”). The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Approved Equipment for the Premises
shall be solely for Licensee’s own use and under no circumstances shall such use be shared with,
or such Approved Equipment otherwise be used by or for the benefit of (whether directly or
indirectly) any other person or entity, including any other person or entity with which Licensee
or any other person or entity referred to herein has a marketing, management, joint venture,
infrastructure-sharing or other contractual arrangement. The Approved Equipment shall be
utilized by Licensee solely for communications purposes by various departments of Licensee,
included but not limited to sheriff, fire, ambulance and public works. All of the uses described in
this subsection shall be referred to as the “Permitted Uses.”
2. LICENSE TERM.
(A) Initial Term/Renewal Terms. The initial term of this License shall be five (5)
years for the period February 15, 2015 (hereinafter “Commencement Date”) through February
14, 2020 (hereinafter “Initial Term”). At the expiration of the Initial Term, this License shall be
renewable for two (2) five-year automatic renewal periods, the first period beginning on
February 15, 2020 and ending on February 14, 2025, and the second period beginning on
February 15, 2025 and ending on February 14, 2030 (each a “Renewal Term”). Such renewals

or been terminated) unless Licensee provides Licensor with written notice to terminate this
License at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term on
February 14, 2020, or by Licensee providing Licensor with written notice to terminate this
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932
Page -5-
License at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the end of the first Renewal Term. In
case of any termination of this License Agreement by Licensee, the Fresno County Board of
Supervisors must approve the termination, and either the County Administrative Officer, or the

to provide such written notice to terminate this License Agreement. In no event shall the term of
this License Agreement extend beyond February 14, 2030.
(B) Termination for Non-Funding. This Agreement is contingent on the approval
of funds to be used by Licensee for the purposes described in this Agreement by Licensee’s
appropriating governmental agency. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, should
funds not be appropriated to Licensee for the purpose of enabling Licensee to continue to meet
its obligations under this Agreement, then this Agreement may thereafter be terminated either by
Licensee’s Director of Internal Services/Chief Information Officer, or his designee, upon giving
thirty (30) days prior written notice to Licensor.
(C) Holdover Period. Should Licensee fail to remove the Approved Equipment upon
expiration of the term, including any Renewal Term, such failure shall be deemed to extend this
Agreement on a month-to-month basis (a “Holdover Period”) under the same terms and
conditions herein, except that (i) a monthly license fee shall be due on or before the first day of
every calendar month during such month-to-month term in an amount equal to one hundred
twenty-five percent (125%) of the monthly license fee in effect for the last month of the term
(“Holdover Fee”), such Holdover Fee to escalate annually on the anniversary of the
Commencement Date by an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the Holdover Fee in effect for
the month immediately prior to the month in which escalation takes place, and (ii) the month-to-
month extension shall be terminable upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice from either
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932

Licensor or Licensee to the other; provided, however, nothing contained herein shall grant
Licensee the unilateral right to extend the term of this Agreement beyond the expiration date of
the second Renewal Term.

Six Hundred Sixty and 89/100 Dollars ($1,660.89) per month as a license fee for its use of the

4. SITE MANAGEMENT. Licensee agrees to comply fully with the reasonable
and lawful directions and requirements which Licensor, in its discretion, may from time to time
establish in connection with this Agreement and the operations of Licensee hereunder, so long as
such directions and/or requirements do not interfere with Licensee’s use of the Premises in
accordance with this Agreement.
5. EQUIPMENT
(A) Licensee shall be permitted to install, operate and maintain the Approved
Equipment as set forth on Exhibit “A.” The Approved Equipment is and shall remain the sole
property of the Licensee and shall be removed from the Premises at Licensee’s sole expense
upon the termination of this Agreement. Licensee agrees to install as may be reasonably needed
or appropriate isolators, cavities and filters or other equivalent equipment on its Approved
Equipment and to maintain and operate its equipment in accordance with the then current
engineering standards prevailing in the communications industry.
(B) Licensee shall clearly and conspicuously mark the Approved Equipment itemized
in Exhibit “A” with Licensee’s name and frequency number(s). If applicable, Licensee shall
also provide Licensor with a copy of the FCC license it is authorized under.
(C) The initial installation location of the Approved Equipment listed on Exhibit “A”
has been approved by Licensor. No equipment, other than that set forth in Exhibit “A” and
equipment of substantially similar dimensions and specifications, and which does not increase
structural load on the Tower shall be installed during the term of this Agreement by Licensee
without Licensor’s prior written consent.
(D) Title to any equipment placed on the Premises by Licensee shall be held by
Licensee and shall remain the property of the Licensee and are not fixtures. Licensee has the
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932
Page -8-
right to remove all of Licensee’s equipment at its sole expense on or before the expiration or
termination of this Agreement and within sixty (60) days following termination, but without
damage to the Premises. Licensee shall be responsible for and shall indemnify Licensor against
any damage to the Premises or to any equipment belonging to any other party which occurs as a
result of the removal of Licensee’s equipment by Licensee or any employee or agent of Licensee.
6. FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE - LICENSEE’S OBLIGATIONS.
(A) Licensee shall operate its Approved Equipment at the Premises in a manner that
will not cause harmful interference with the use or enjoyment of the Tower or the Building by
Licensor and any other tenants or licensees who are operating in compliance with all applicable
laws, in and/or on the Tower and Building as of the date of this License (“Pre-Existing Users”).
All operations of Licensee, Licensor and other tenants and licensees shall be lawful and in
compliance with all Governmental Requirements (as hereafter defined), including but not limited
to those of the FCC and the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”). “Governmental
Requirements” shall mean all applicable requirements under any federal, state or local statutes,
rules, regulations, ordinances, or other requirements of any duly constituted public authority
having jurisdiction over the Tower and Building (including, without limitation, the Premises).
Licensee shall be responsible for all reasonable costs associated with any tests deemed necessary
to resolve any and all interference that Licensee is actually causing. If interference caused by
Licensee's failure to comply with FCC or FAA rules and regulations has not been corrected
within the required period specified by the FCC or FAA after Licensee receives notice thereof,
Licensor may require Licensee to remove from the Premises the specific items causing such
interference.
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932
Page -9-
(B) Licensor shall not substantially and materially alter its existing or contemplated
use of the Tower and Building, nor shall Licensor permit any tenants, licensees, employees,
invitees or agents obtaining rights to the Tower and/or Building from and after the
Commencement Date to use any portion of the Tower and/or Building in any way which
unreasonably interferes with Licensee’s FCC licensed frequencies. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Licensor hereby acknowledges that in the event of any unreasonable
interference with Licensee's FCC licensed frequencies as a result of the transmission or reception
(or both) of radio, microwave or other telecommunications signals by a future tenant, licensee or
authorized user of the Tower and/or Building, Licensee's rights hereunder with respect to the use
of its FCC licensed frequencies shall be and remain superior to the rights of any such future
tenant, licensee or occupant, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 6(D) below.
(C) Licensor reserves the right to license other portions of the Tower and Building to
other parties during the term of this Agreement, inclusive of any Renewal Term or Holdover
Period thereafter. Accordingly, Licensor agrees that any other person or entity who may install
equipment subsequent to the Commencement Date on the Tower and/or in the Building,
including, without limitation, Pre-Existing Users, will be permitted to install only such
communications equipment of a type and frequency that does not cause harmful interference to
Licensee or persons or entities claiming through or under Licensee. In the event any such person
or entity's equipment causes such interference, Licensor will cause the interfering party to take
all steps necessary to correct and eliminate the interference or such interfering party will be
required to cease operations until such interference is removed. To the extent Licensee's
operations are not within the parameters of the FCC license it is authorized under, this protection
from co-located interference will not be applicable, but it shall be applicable with respect to
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932
Page -10-
those operations, or portions thereof, falling within the FCC license parameters.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee's right to be free from interference and Licensor's duties
concerning the prevention and/or correction of interference shall be subject to Section 6(D)
below.
(D) In the event that Licensee commences using the Premises in a manner for which
Licensee is not licensed by the FCC as of the Commencement Date, but with respect to which
Licensee obtains necessary FCC licensure after the Commencement Date, Licensee's right to
conduct such particular use shall be subordinate to the use of the Tower and Building by
Licensor and any other tenants, licensees or other users thereof existing on or before the date on
which Licensee commences such use. Licensor shall be under no obligation to exercise the
duties concerning interference described above in Section 6(C) with respect to a future use of the
Premises by Licensee as described in this Section 6(D).
(E) Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary in this License Agreement, if
Licensee’s Equipment causes interference in violation of Section 6(A) above as determined by a
spectrum analyzer, Licensee shall take all reasonable steps necessary to correct or eliminate such
interference within sixty (60) hours. If such interference cannot be corrected within sixty (60)
hours, Licensee shall turn off its equipment and only turn on its equipment, except for
intermittent testing, during off-peak hours specified by Licensor in order to test whether such
interference continues or it has been satisfactorily eliminated. In the event of an emergency,
Licensor shall have the right to disconnect Licensee’s equipment if Licensee is unable to cure
such interference immediately after receipt of an interference notice from Licensor. The
interference notice to Licensee shall be by either telephone or by electronic mail. In the event
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932
Page -11-
Licensee fails to comply with this Section 6(E), Licensor may, in its sole discretion, terminate
this Agreement.
7. INSTALLATION OF APPROVED EQUIPMENT; OTHER
CONSTRUCTION, ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS BY LICENSEE.
(A) Contractor Requirements. Prior to the commencement of any construction or
installation work at the Premises, either at the Tower or Building, Licensee shall submit to
Licensor for review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, detailed
plans and specifications accurately describing all aspects of the proposed work. Licensee shall
not commence any construction or installation work on or at the Premises until Licensor issues to
Licensee a written notice to proceed (“NTP”). Licensee shall notify Licensor of any contractors
that Licensee retains to work on or at the Premises. Any contractor other than Licensor that will
be performing work on or at the Premises must be a licensed contractor with valid and current
workman’s compensation and general liability insurance certificates on file with Licensor
naming Licensor as an additional insured and which otherwise satisfy the insurance coverage
requirements set forth in Section 15 of this Agreement. In addition, any person climbing the
Tower for or on behalf of Licensee for any purpose must have valid tower climbing training and
certification, which certification(s) shall be provided to Licensor. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement, Licensor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse to
permit any person or company to climb the Tower or do any other work on or at the Building or
Tower.
(B) Indemnity/Licensor’s Right to Inspect. All of Licensee’s construction and
installation work at the Premises shall be performed at Licensee’s sole cost and expense in a
good and workmanlike manner with Licensee holding Licensor harmless of any mechanics’ or
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932
Page -12-
materialman’s liens. Licensee shall be responsible for and shall indemnify Licensor against any
and all damage, theft, vandalism or loss that results from the installation of any equipment,
cables or utility wires by Licensee or any contractor, subcontractor or other person or entity
retained by Licensee (including a public utility company), including, without limitation, any
damage, theft, vandalism or loss that results from the accidental cutting of utility wires or cables
of any other party operating at or on the Tower and/or Building and any installation that does not
conform with any applicable local building code or is not performed in a satisfactory manner as
determined in Licensor’s discretion. Licensor, in its discretion, may elect to be present when all
construction or installation work is being done to ensure that Licensor’s property is not damaged
during such work. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee shall not be required to make any
repairs to the Premises except for damages to the Premises caused by Licensee, its employees,
agents, contractors and subcontractors, normal wear and tear excepted.
(C) Equipment; Relocation, Modification. Except as provided in this subsection,
Licensee shall not construct, install or operate any equipment or improvements on the Premises
other than those which are described on Exhibit “A” or alter the radio frequency described
therein. Licensee shall submit an application (“Application”) utilizing Licensor’s then current
form, to request the right to replace or modify its Approved Equipment, alter the radio frequency
of the Approved Equipment or increase the ground space. Licensor shall evaluate the feasibility
of Licensee’s request and may or may not approve Licensee’s request in Licensor’s reasonable
discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision of this paragraph, Licensee shall not be
required to submit an Application to perform routine maintenance on the Approved Equipment,
or to replace, upgrade or modify its Approved Equipment with the same or equivalent mode of
equipment provided the model has been approved in writing by Licensor or with another model
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932
Page -13-
of equipment that (i) is no heavier or larger and uses no more electrical power than the model it
is replacing; (ii) has a method of obtaining electrical power for the device that is the same as for
the model it is replacing; and (iii) has electrical power consumption, size and weight of the
updated equipment that does not, in the sole judgment of Licensor, place an unacceptable burden
or risk on the Tower or Building, and provided further that Licensee shall notify Licensor
whenever any equipment which is affixed to the Tower and/or Building is to be changed,
modified or repaired. In the event Licensee fails to notify Licensor with respect to any change,
modification or repair of its equipment affixed to the Tower and Building, then Licensor may
treat such failure to notify as a material breach of this Agreement by Licensee and may pursue all
remedies set forth in this Agreement.
(D) Termination of License. Licensee shall have the right to remove all equipment
at Licensee’s sole expense on or before the expiration or earlier termination of the License
provided Licensee repairs any damage to the Premises, or any other portion or part of the Tower
or Building, caused by such removal. Within sixty (60) days of the expiration or termination of
this Agreement for any reason, Licensee shall: (i) remove the Approved Equipment and any
other property belonging to Licensee from the Premises at Licensee’s sole risk, cost and expense;
(ii) deliver the Premises in substantially the same and in as good of a condition as received
(ordinary wear and tear excepted); and (iii) repair any damage caused by the removal of the
Approved Equipment within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of such damage, provided that
any significant damage to the Tower, Building or to any non-Licensee equipment resulting from
Licensee’s removal of its equipment shall be repaired immediately. Licensee shall indemnify
Licensor against any loss incurred as a result of Licensee’s removal of its equipment in
accordance with the provisions of section 7(B) above.
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932
Page -14-
(E) Failure to Remove Equipment. If Licensee fails to timely pay the Holdover Fee
and/or does not remove its Approved Equipment within sixty (60) days after the expiration or
termination of this Agreement, (i) the Approved Equipment shall be deemed conclusively and
absolutely abandoned by Licensee and anyone claiming by, through or under Licensee except for
any items, whether Approved Equipment or otherwise, which contain Hazardous Materials (as
defined below) and/or waste from Hazardous Materials, which must be removed by Licensee
from the Premises prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement; and
(ii) Licensor shall have the right to remove the Approved Equipment at Licensee’s sole expense
and dispose of such Approved Equipment in any manner Licensor so elects, and Licensee shall
reimburse Licensor for its expenses upon demand without offset.
8. TAXES. Licensee shall be responsible for the payment of any applicable taxes,
fees, or governmental assessments against any equipment, personal property and/or
improvements owned, leased or operated by Licensee or directly associated with Licensee’s use
of the Premises. Except as provided immediately hereafter, Licensor shall pay all real property
taxes that Licensor is obligated to pay. Licensee shall reimburse Licensor for any increase in
real or personal property taxes which are assessed as a direct result of Licensee’s installation of
its Approved Equipment or improvements to the Premises within thirty (30) days of Licensor’s
request for such reimbursement. Upon Licensee’s request, Licensor shall provide to Licensee
copies of the documentation from the taxing authority reasonably acceptable to Licensee,
indicating the increase is due to Licensee’s improvements or Approved Equipment.
9. MAINTENANCE OF PREMISES. Licensee, at its own cost and expense, shall
protect, maintain and keep in neat and safe condition and in good order its Premises, including
the standby electricity generator for the Premises. In the event of an emergency or a loss of
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932
Page -15-
power, Licensee shall permit Licensor to access the standby generator and to draw electricity
from the same in an amount not to exceed 10 kilowatts of generated electricity. Licensee shall
not maintain nor permit any nuisances on the Premises, nor permit the Premises to be used for
any purpose or use in violation of any of the laws, codes, ordinances, rules or regulations of any
public authority applicable thereto. Licensee shall reimburse Licensor for Licensee’s pro-rata
share of costs and expenses incurred by Licensor for the maintenance, repair and replacement of
common facilities at the Tower and Building and at the Bear Mountain Site, including, without
limitation, damage to fences, gates, access roads and the Tower and Building; provided that any
damage caused directly by Licensee or its agents, employees or contractors shall be borne solely
by Licensee.
10. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Licensor shall be responsible for compliance
with any marking and lighting requirements of the FAA and the FCC applicable to the Tower
and Building. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Licensee shall at all
times comply with all applicable laws and ordinances and all rules and regulations of municipal,
state and federal governmental authorities relating to the installation, maintenance, location, use,
operation, and removal of the Approved Equipment and other alterations or improvements
authorized pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.
11. UTILITIES. Licensor shall, at all times during the term, including any Renewal
Term or Holdover Period, provide electrical service access at the Premises. All utility services
installed on the Premises for the use or benefit of the Licensee shall be made at the sole cost and
expense of Licensee and may be separately metered from Licensor’s utilities if possible.
Licensee shall be solely responsible for extending utilities to the Premises as necessary for the
operation of the Approved Equipment and for the payment of utility charges, including
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932
Page -16-
connection charges and security deposits incurred by Licensee. In the event Licensee utility
services are provided by Licensor and are not separately metered to Licensee, Licensee shall pay
to Licensor the sum of Five Hundred Dollars ($500) per month as reimbursement to Licensor for
such services, which Licensor and Licensee agree represents a fair, reasonable estimate of
Licensee’s usage and consumption of such services. Licensee shall obtain and pay the cost of
telephone connections, the installation of which shall be in compliance with the procedures for
installation and maintenance of Approved Equipment set forth herein, and further Licensee shall
provide Licensor with access to two (2) T1 telephone circuits, at no charge, to be used by
Licensor in its discretion. Licensee is permitted at any time during the term, including any
Renewal Term or Holdover Period, to install, maintain and/or provide access to and use of, as
necessary (during any power interruption at the Premises), a temporary power source, and all
related equipment and appurtenances for the Tower and Building, or elsewhere in such locations
as reasonably approved by Licensor. Licensee may install conduits connecting the temporary
power source and related appurtenances to the Premises.
12. ONGOING ACCESS TO PREMISES. Throughout the term, including any
Renewal Term or Holdover Period of this Agreement, Licensee shall have the non-exclusive
right of access to the Premises twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days per week. In
exercising its right of access to the Premises, Licensee agrees to cooperate with any reasonable
security procedures utilized by Licensor and further agrees not to unreasonably disturb or
interfere with the business or other activities of Licensor or any other licensees, tenants or
occupants of the real property where the Tower and Building are situated.
13. APPROVALS AND PERMITS. Licensee represents that it has obtained, at its
sole cost, all required permits and/or licenses pertaining to the installation, operation,

and expenses, damages, liabilities, claims, and losses occurring or resulting to Licensee as a
result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Licensor, its officers, agents or employees under
this License, and from any and all costs and expenses, damages, liabilities, claims, and losses
occurring or resulting to any person, firm, or corporation who may be injured or damaged by the

This License is made upon the expressed condition that the Licensee is to be free of all
liability, damages or injury arising from structural failures of the Premises, as well as the entire
Tower and Building structures, including, but not limited to external walls, doors, roof and floors

Party waives all of such carrier’s rights to proceed against the other Party. Licensee’s insurance
policies shall provide such waivers of subrogation by endorsement. The Licensee shall require
by appropriate agreements, written where legally required for validity, similar waivers from its
contractors and subcontractors. A waiver of subrogation shall be effective as to a person or
entity even though that person or entity would otherwise have a duty of indemnification,
contractual or otherwise, did not pay the insurance premium directly or indirectly, and whether
or not the person or entity had an insurable interest in the property damaged.
(B) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Licensor and
Licensee each release the other and its respective affiliates, employees and representatives from
any claims by them or any one claiming through or under them by way of subrogation or
otherwise for damage to any person or to the Premises and to the fixtures, personal property,
improvements and alterations in or for the Premises that are caused by or result from risks
insured against under any insurance policy carried by each and required by this Agreement,
provided that such releases shall be effective only if and to the extent that the same do not
diminish or adversely affect the coverage under such insurance policies and only to the extent of
the proceeds received from such policy.

reasonable diligence to identify the owner of the equipment, in its reasonable discretion, declare
Licensee to be in default of its obligations under this Agreement, terminate electrical power to

laws or is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent in proceedings filed
against Licensee thereunder.

this Agreement or its obligations under it, Licensee shall give Licensor written notice of such
breach. After receipt of such written notice, Licensor has thirty (30) days in which to cure any
such breach, provided Licensor will have such extended period as may be required beyond the
thirty (30) days if the nature of the cure is such that it reasonably requires more than thirty (30)
days so long as completion of the cure takes not longer then ninety (90) days.
(C) Neither Party may maintain any action or effect any remedies for default against
the non-defaulting Party unless and until the defaulting Party has failed to cure the breach within
the time periods provided in this Section 20.

or not, in any such case as to render impracticable communications therefrom, which
determination shall be in the sole discretion of Licensor. Licensor may, at its option and without
termination of this Agreement, repair the portions of the Tower and/or Building so damaged or
destroyed. Licensee shall be entitled to a prorated reduction in the License Fee required herein
for any period during which Licensee’s use of the Premises is interrupted for the purpose of
making such repairs to the Tower and/or Building. In the event that the repairs are not
L-247BearMountain
LaRueCA/ISD-ITRadio8932
Page -23-
completed and Licensee is unable to fully operate its equipment within sixty (60) days of such
event, Licensee shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, provided that said sixty (60)
day period shall be extended by a reasonable period of time if weather conditions are such that
access to the site is impeded (for example, Licensor is unable to access the Tower and/or
Building due to snow conditions).
(B) Should Licensee install or have installed any equipment on the Premises without
the prior written approval of Licensor, Licensor may terminate this Agreement, have all of
Licensee’s equipment removed from the Premises, and store such equipment at Licensee’s
expense all without prejudice to any other remedies Licensor may have provided for herein or by
law. Any equipment so removed will be returned to Licensee upon payment in full of all storage

23. SITE RULES AND REGULATIONS. Licensee agrees to comply with the
reasonable rules and regulations established from time to time at the Premises by Licensor,
which may be modified by Licensor from time to time upon receipt by Licensee of such revised
rules and regulations. Such rules and regulations will not unreasonably interfere with Licensee’s

under the terms of a ground lease (the “Ground Lease”) with a third-party landowner. All terms,
conditions and covenants contained in this License shall be specifically subject to and
subordinate to the terms and conditions of the Ground Lease. In the event that any provision of
the Ground Lease is in conflict with any provision of this License, Licensee agrees to comply
with the terms of such Ground Lease as applicable to the access and occupancy of the Premises,
provided that Licensor fully informs Licensee of all such terms. Licensor will not commit or
cause any act or omission that would result in the default or breach of the Ground Lease that
cannot be cured within the applicable cure periods in the Ground Lease. Licensor is under no
obligation to extend the term of or renew the Ground Lease. Licensor shall give Licensee
written notice of such termination or expiration of this License as a result of the termination or
expiration of the Ground Lease as soon as practicable, and Licensor shall not be liable in any
way to Licensee in the event that this License terminates as a result of the termination or

monies due and payable under the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed an accord and
