1. PARTIES. This Permit Agreement ("Permit"), dated for reference purposes only this 1st day of July 2010, is made by and between the COUNTY OF SAN MATEO, a political subdivision of the State of California ("County" or "Permittor"), and T-Mobile West Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Permittee"). Permittor and Permittee agree as follows:
2. PREMISES. Permittor is the owner of that certain parcel of real property commonly known as the Half Moon Bay Airport, 9850 Cabrillo Highway North, Half Moon Bay, California (the “Airport”), and more particularly described in Exhibit A (Property Map). The Airport, land upon which the Airport is located and all other improvements on and appurtenances to such land are referred to collectively as the “Property.”
The Premises consist of a portion of the Property including (i) approximately forty square feet of ground space for the installation of outdoor communications equipment, (ii) space on the approximate 70 foot level of Permittor’s existing antenna tower (“Tower”) located adjacent to the Premises, for the installation and operation of the equipment described in Exhibit D (Site Plan/Construction Drawings), and (iii) the non-exclusive right of access over and through such portions of the Airport as are necessary for Permittee's Use of the Premises, and more particularly shown in Exhibit A. In connection with its use of the Premises, and for the Term of this Permit, Permittor grants Permittee a non-exclusive and non-possessory license (“License”) for the placement and use of wiring and conduit, as shown in Exhibit D. It is the intent of the Parties that the License hereby granted shall be co-terminus with the Permit.
3. IMPROVEMENTS AND INSTALLATIONS. Permittee shall have the right to make and maintain improvements to the Premises in accordance with the plans attached as Exhibit D, which are hereby approved for construction by Permittor. Said approval shall not be construed as, and is subject to, issuance of a Use Permit as required and issued by the Planning and Building Divisions of San Mateo County. Upon issuance of a Use Permit, Permittee will promptly provide to the Airport Manager a copy of the permit approval. Except as set forth in Section 17, Permittee shall obtain the prior written consent of Permittor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, for any modifications to the Premises not shown in Exhibit D. Permittee shall obtain all necessary governmental approvals and permits prior to commencing any improvements or modifications, and shall provide Permittor with ten (10) days written notice prior to the start of construction. All contractors and subcontractors of Permittee for work performed at the Premises shall be duly licensed by the State of California, and all work shall be performed in a good, safe and workmanlike manner.
Prior to the installation of equipment, Permittee must obtain any and all licenses required in order to operate the site for the intended use. Copies of said license(s) shall be provided by Permittee to Permittor upon receipt by Permittee.
4. USE. Permittor may use and occupy the Premises for the installation, construction, removal, replacement, maintenance, and operation of a wireless communication site utilizing the equipment listed in this Section and as shown on the attached Exhibit D, and for no other equipment or purposes without the prior written consent of Permittor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
Equipment shall consist of antennas, radio transmitting and receiving equipment, conduits, wires, batteries, back-up generators, utility lines and facilities, supporting structures, storage facilities and related equipment, together with cabling between the equipment and exterior antennas (“Equipment”).
Permittee acknowledges that, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 20 (Equipment Conflict) but otherwise without effecting the rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder, Permittor may, in its sole discretion, grant to other operators the right to install and use similar facilities in the Airport.
Permittee shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises, nor bring or keep anything therein, which will in any way increase the existing rate of or affect any fire or other insurance upon the Premises or the Airport, or cause cancellation of any insurance policy covering the Premises or the Airport. Permittee shall not use or allow the Premises to be used for any improper, immoral, unlawful or objectionable purpose, nor shall Permittee cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Premises or the Airport. Permittee shall not commit or suffer to be committed any waste in or upon the Premises or the Airport.
EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, PERMITTEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE PREMISES ARE ACCEPTED IN THEIR “AS IS” CONDITION, WITHOUT REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, AND SUBJECT TO ALL APPLICABLE LAWS, RULES AND ORDINANCES GOVERNING THEIR USE, OCCUPANCY AND POSSESSION. PERMITTEE REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS TO PERMITTOR THAT PERMITTEE HAS INVESTIGATED AND INSPECTED, EITHER INDEPENDENTLY OR THROUGH AGENTS OF PERMITTEE’S OWN CHOOSING, THE CONDITION OF THE PREMISES AND THE SUITABILITY OF THE PREMISES FOR PERMITTEE’S INTENDED USE. PERMITTEE HAS DETERMINED, BASED SOLELY ON ITS OWN INVESTIGATION, THAT THE PREMISES ARE SUITABLE FOR PERMITTEE’S BUSINESS AND INTENDED USE. PERMITTEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NEITHER PERMITTOR NOR ANY OF ITS AGENTS HAVE MADE, AND PERMITTOR HEREBY DISCLAIMS, ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, CONCERNING THE RENTABLE AREA OF THE PREMISES, THE PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION OF THE PREMISES OR THE PROPERTY, THE PRESENT OR FUTURE SUITABILITY OF THE PREMISES FOR PERMITTEE’S BUSINESS, OR ANY OTHER MATTER WHATSOEVER RELATING TO THE PREMISES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
5. PRIMARY TERM. Unless sooner terminated pursuant to the provisions hereof, the Primary Term of this Permit shall be for five (5) years commencing upon delivery to the Parties of a duly authorized and signed Permit (the "Effective Date"). In the event the Effective Date falls on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, said partial month, together with the first twelve (12) full calendar months, shall be deemed to be the first year of the Primary Term and each successive twelve (12) full calendar months shall be the successive year of the Term.
6. EXTENDED TERM. Subject to the limitations set forth in this section, Permittee shall have the option to renew this Permit for one additional five (5) year term beyond the primary term. Said renewal shall be under the same terms, covenants and conditions as the initial agreement, except for adjustment of the Permit Fee as specified in Section 7D (Extended Term Fee Adjustment) of this Permit.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Permit, Permittee's right to extend the Primary Term by exercise of the foregoing option shall be conditioned upon the following:
A. NOTICE: Permittee shall give Permittor written notice of its election to exercise its option not later than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the Primary Term or the first Extended Term.
B. ASSIGNMENT: Except for the permitted assignment pursuant to Section 29 (Assignment by Permittee), if all or a portion of the Premises under this Permit has been assigned, this option shall be deemed null and void and neither Permittee nor any assignee shall have the right to exercise such option during the term of such assignment.
C. CONTINUOUS OPERATION: Permittee must have been in continuous operation in accordance with Section 4 (Use) except for reasonable periods of downtime and to the extent within Permittee’s reasonable control during the Primary Term in effect at the time Permittee exercises its option.
D. PERMITTOR’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE OPTION: In the event Permittor receives written notice from Permittee of Permittee’s intent to exercise its Option to Extend, and Permittor determines, in its sole and absolute judgment, that the Premises or the Airport have a more appropriate use including, but not limited to, any County or public use, the Permittee (or its authorized agent as set forth in Section 27), shall have the right to refuse to grant Permittee’s option to extend by giving Permittee written notice within thirty (30) days of receipt of Permittee’s notice exercising its Option to Extend, and this Permit shall terminate at the expiration of the term then in effect.
A. BASE PERMIT FEE. Subject to the adjustments hereinafter set forth, Permittee agrees to pay Permittor, as Base Permit Fee for the Premises, the annual sum of THIRTY TWO THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($32,400.00) payable in equal monthly installments of TWO THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($2,700.00) in advance on or before the first day of each and every calendar month ("Base Permit Fee"). Within twenty (20) days after the parties execute this Permit; Permittee shall pay to Permittor the Base Permit Fee for the first full month. All payments shall be delivered to Permittor at the following address, or such other address as Permittor shall designate in writing to Permittee:
Department of Public Works
Accounts Receivable (Ref. No. 5243)
555 County Center, 5th Floor
Redwood City, CA 94063
B. PRORATED PERMIT FEE. The Base Permit Fee and all other fees and charges for any period during the term hereof which is for less than one (1) full calendar month shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days of that calendar month.
C. BASE PERMIT FEE ADJUSTMENT. Beginning on July 1, 2011, and on the 1st day of July of each year of the term of this Permit, including any extended term or holdover period as set forth herein, the Base Permit Fee as set forth in Section 7 (Permit Fee) for the following twelve month period shall be adjusted to equal one hundred three percent (103%) of the Base Permit Fee for the year preceding such Adjustment Date, as follows:
Initial Term |
Monthly Base Permit Fee |
July 1, 2010 – June 30, 2011 |
$2,700.00 |
July 1, 2011 – June 30, 2012 |
$2,781.00 |
July 1, 2012 – June 30, 2013 |
$2,864.43 |
July 1, 2013 – June 30, 2014 |
$2,950.36 |
July 1, 2014 – June 30, 2015 |
$3,038.87 |
D. EXTENDED TERM FEE ADJUSTMENT. During the first year of the extended term, if exercised, the Base Permit Fee shall be adjusted as set forth in 7C (Base Permit Fee Adjustment) above or, at the election of Permittor delivered to Permittee in writing within thirty days of receipt of Permittee’s notice, shall be adjusted to then current fair market permit fees for like space. Current fair market permit fees shall be established in accordance with the County’s radio site equipment rates or any replacement schedule formulated by the County of San Mateo, provided, however, in no event shall the Base Permit Fee be reduced below the Base Permit Fee for the permit year prior to commencement of such Extended Term. The Permit Fee for the initial year of each Renewal Term shall be determined and agreed to by both parties at least sixty (60) days prior to the commencement date of the applicable Renewal Term. If an agreement on fair market permit fees cannot be reached by the parties within sixty (60) days prior to the commencement date of the applicable Renewal Term, the Base Permit Fee for the Renewal Term shall be the rate proposed by the Permittor provided, however, that Permittee may, at any time during the subsequent twelve months, terminate this Permit by giving Permittor thirty (30) days written notice. If Permittor does not, within such twelve-month period, deliver to Permittor written notice of termination, this Permit shall continue if full force and effect for the entire Extended Term. All other terms and conditions hereof shall apply.
E. LATE CHARGES. Permittee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Permittee to Permittor of the Permit Fee or other sums due under the provisions of this Permit will cause Permittor to incur costs not contemplated by this Permit, the exact amount of which would be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, administrative processing of delinquent notices and accounting charges. Accordingly, if any installment of the Permit Fee or of any sum due from Permittee is not received by Permittor or postmarked within five (5) days after said amount is due, then Permittee shall pay to Permittor a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the permit fee in effect at that time or Fifty Dollars ($50.00), whichever is greater. A late charge shall be applied each month that the permit fee or any sum due is delinquent. The parties hereby agree that such late charges represent a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost that Permittor will incur by reason of the late payment by Permittee. Acceptance of late charges by Permittor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Permittee's default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Permittor from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted under the provisions of this Permit.
Any Fee, if not paid within five (5) days following the due date, shall bear interest from the due date until paid at the rate of ten percent (10%) per year or, if a higher rate is legally permissible, at the highest rate an individual is permitted to charge under law (the “Interest Rate”). However, interest shall not be payable on late charges incurred by Permittee nor on any amounts on which late charges are paid by Permittee to the extent this interest would cause the total interest to be in excess of that which an individual is lawfully permitted to charge. Payment of interest shall not excuse or cure any default by Permittee.
A. BY PERMITTEE: Permittee shall have the right to terminate this Permit at any time upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Permittor for any of the following reasons:
1. If the approval of any agency, board, court or other governmental authority necessary for the construction and/or operation of Permittee’s communications facility cannot be obtained, or is revoked, or if Permittee determines the cost of obtaining such approval is commercially infeasible, or
2. If Permittee determines that the Premises is not appropriate for locating Permittee’s communication facility for environmental and/or technological reasons including, but not limited to, signal interference.
B. BY PERMITTOR: Permittor shall have the right to terminate this Permit at any time upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Permittee only for any of the following reasons:
1. If Permittee’s communication equipment causes interference with Permittor’s communication equipment located on the Property and Permittee’s communication equipment cannot be corrected to eliminate the interference, or
2. If Permittor remains in default under Section 22 (Default; Remedies) of this Permit after the expiration of all applicable cure periods.
C. RELOCATION: If Permittor determines that the Property or any portion thereof, including the Premises, has a more appropriate use including, but not limited to, any County or public use, or sale, subject to the relocation provisions below, Permittor may terminate this Permit upon one hundred eighty (180) days prior written notice. If Permittor terminates this Permit under the provisions of this section, Permittor shall use commercially reasonable efforts in assisting Permittee in identifying a “Replacement Location” on the Airport Property.
1. In the event an adequate Replacement Location can be identified, Permittor and Permittee shall execute an amendment to this Permit modifying the description of the Premises and development and use conditions as necessary and appropriate, and this Permit shall remain in full force and effect. Permittee shall pay all relocation costs incidental to such substitution of the Premises. During such relocation, Permittee will also have the right to install on the Property (at the Premises or another mutually acceptable location) temporary communications facilities, including a cell on wheels (“COW”) and associated equipment, until the Replacement Location is finalized and the Equipment is reconstructed/relocated and operational at the Replacement Location.
2. In the event that that an adequate Replacement Location cannot be located and mutually agreed upon, Permittee shall have the right to terminate this Permit upon at least ninety (90) days advance written notice to Permittor, and this Permit will terminate on the same terms and conditions as if it had expired at the end of the Term.
D. NOTICE. Upon termination as provided for under the terms of Section 8A (Termination by Permittee), or Section 8B (Termination By Permittor), neither party will owe the other party any further obligation under the terms of this Permit, except as may otherwise be specifically provided herein and except for Permittee’s responsibility to remove all of Permittee’s communications equipment from the Premises and restore the Premises to its original condition, as near as practicable, save and except normal wear and tear and acts beyond Permittee’s control.
In the event of any damage to, destruction of or condemnation of all or any part of the Premises which renders the Premises unusable or inoperable, either party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate this Permit and all of its duties and obligations hereunder by giving written notice to the other party within thirty (30) days after such damage, destruction or condemnation unless said damage was caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of the party issuing such notice. Permittee acknowledges that it has no property interest in the Premises and that Permittor alone shall be entitled to any condemnation proceeds paid as a result of any condemnation of the Premises, except for any relocation payments owing to Permittee under California law. Upon the expiration or termination of this Permit for any reason, Permittee shall remove its equipment and all personal property in accordance with Section 18 (Removal of Improvements) hereof.
9. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ACTIVITY. Permittee shall not store, handle or generate hazardous materials/waste/underground tanks on the Premises except for fuel, batteries, and solvents used in connection with an emergency generator and only in the event of disruption of electrical service to the Premises. In the event that Permittee does store, handle, or generate hazardous materials on the Premises, Permittee shall be deemed to be in breach of this Permit and shall be subject to such remedies as are available to Permittor under law, and as provided herein. Additionally, Permittee shall be liable for the payment of all costs of investigation and remediation of hazardous materials on the Premises that may be required in the event that Permittee does store, handle, or generate hazardous materials on the Premises, and shall relieve, indemnify, protect, and save harmless Permittor against any and all claims and liabilities, of any kind or nature whatsoever, arising out of the presence of any such hazardous materials introduced to the Premises by Permittee.
Hazardous material means any material that, because of its quantity, concentration, or physical or chemical characteristics, poses a significant present or potential hazard to human health and safety or to the environment if released into the work place or the environment. Hazardous materials include, but are not limited to, hazardous substances, hazardous waste, and any material which a handler or the administering agency has a reasonable basis for believing that it would be injurious to the health and safety of persons or harmful to the environment if released into the work place or the environment. Examples of such hazardous materials are, but are not limited to: waste oil, solvents, gasoline and compressed gases.
Permittor represents and warrants to Permittee that there is no pending claim, lawsuits, proceeding or other legal, quasi-legal or administrative challenge concerning the Property or Premises, the operation thereof, or any condition existing thereon which relates to the presence of any Hazardous Materials in, under or around the Property. Permittor further represents and warrants, to the best of Permittor’s knowledge, that there are no Hazardous Materials present in, on, under or around the Property and/or Premises in violation of any Applicable Law.
10. NATURE OF PERMIT. This Permit does NOT constitute the grant of a lease, deed, easement, or conveyance or transfer of any property interest.
11. ACCESS. Permittee acknowledges that the Airport is an operating General Aviation Airport which is open to the public. Permittor acknowledges that Permittee's equipment will operate on a twenty-four (24) hour a day, seven (7) day per week basis, and reasonable full time access is required.

Subject to the provisions of Section 3 (Improvements and Installations) hereof, and subject to the allowable access route as determined by Permittor, Permittee may enter the Premises at any time without prior notice being given to Permittor for the installation, construction, maintenance, operation, modification or addition of Permittee’s existing communications facilities.
12. CLAIMS. Permittee shall at all times indemnify and save Permittor harmless from all claims for labor or materials in connection with construction, repair, alteration, or installation of structures, improvements, equipment, or facilities retained by Permittee within the Premises, and from the cost of defending against such claims, including attorney fees.

In the event of damage to or destruction of the Premises or any portion thereof by reason of the negligence or willful misconduct of Permittee, its agents, officers, employees or invitees, Permittee shall, within thirty (30) days, commence and diligently pursue to complete the repair, replacement, or reconstruction of improvements necessary to permit full use and occupancy of the Premises at Permittee's sole cost.
14. PERMITS. Permittor acknowledges that Permittee will contact the appropriate governmental agencies for the purpose of obtaining all permits and approvals necessary for the construction, operation, and maintenance of Permittee’s communication facility. Permittor agrees to fully cooperate with Permittee in obtaining the necessary permits and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to execute any applications, maps, certificates, or other documents that may be required in connection with the permits.
15. MAINTENANCE. Permittee expressly agrees to maintain the Premises and Equipment at Permittee’s sole expense, in a safe, clean, wholesome, and sanitary condition, to the reasonable satisfaction of Permittor and in compliance with all laws, rules, and regulations applicable to Permittee’s specific use thereof. Permittee shall, at Permittee’s sole cost and expense, maintain the warning light on the top of the Tower according to the requirements set forth by the FAA.
Permittee shall not allow any offensive or refuse matter, nor any substance constituting an unnecessary, unreasonable or unlawful fire hazard, nor any material detrimental to the public health to accumulate or remain on the Premises. It is expressly understood that Permittor shall have no responsibility whatsoever to make any improvements or repairs or perform any maintenance to Permittee’s Premises.
16. UTILITIES. Permittee expressly agrees that Permittee shall be responsible for obtaining and providing any and all electrical and electronic communication services to the Premises required for Permittee’s use, including, but not limited to, the cost to install, connect, maintain and operate said facilities. Permittor will cooperate with Permittee in Permittee’s efforts to obtain utilities from any location provided by Permittor or the servicing utility, including signing any permit or other instrument reasonably required by the utility company. Said responsibility for all costs associated with utilities shall include the installation of a separate electrical meter, if applicable. Provided adequate capacity is available from Permittor's existing service, upon Permittee’s written request, Permittor shall allow Permittee to install sub-metering equipment on existing Permittor’s utility services. Permittee agrees to install, at Permittee’s cost, the required equipment, meters and connections and to make any other necessary modifications and will reimburse Permittor monthly for Permittee’s use of utilities at a rate equal to Permittor’s unit cost for the utilities. The specifications of such equipment shall be submitted to Permittor for written approval prior to installation, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
17. ALTERATIONS OR ADDITIONS. Permittee shall not make, construct, install or suffer to be made any alterations, additions (including antennas, wires, supports, poles or towers) or improvements to or on the Airport, the Premises, or any part thereof, without the written consent of Permittor first had and obtained, except that Permittee may exchange or replace the communication equipment located on the Premises which has been previously approved by Permittor with similar equipment of substantially the same (or smaller) size and weight. In the event Permittor consents to the making of any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises and/or the Airport by Permittee, the same shall be made by Permittee at Permittee’s sole expense.
18. REMOVAL OF IMPROVEMENTS UPON EXPIRATION OR TERMINATION. Upon the expiration, or termination of this Permit for any reason, including but not limited to bankruptcy, Permittee shall immediately (and in no event later than seven (7) days after termination) remove from the Premises the Equipment and any other property placed on the Premises by Permittee or any of Permittee’s Agents. Such removal shall be performed in such a manner as to not interfere with the continuing use of the Premises by Permittor and others. Permittee shall, at Permittee’s sole expense, repair any damage to the Premises, or any facilities or equipment on the Premises, caused by such removal. Upon any failure of Permittee to remove the Equipment and any other possessions of Permittee pursuant to this Section, Permittor shall have the option, but not the obligation, to remove the Equipment from the Premises and store the Equipment, all at Permittee’s expense, upon thirty (30) days advance written notice to Permittee. Any damages to the Equipment occasioned by such removal and storage are expressly waived by Permittee. Any Equipment so removed will be returned to Permittee upon payment in full of all removal and storage costs and any past due Permit Fees, plus an administrative charge equal to ten percent (10%) of the total of said removal, storage, and past due Permit Fee costs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Equipment not retrieved by Permittee within sixty (60) days after removal from the Premises by Permittor shall be deemed abandoned by Permittee and shall become the property of Permittor without further action by either party. Such abandonment shall not relieve Permittee of liability for the costs of removal and storage of the Equipment.
19. FIXTURES. Permittor covenants and agrees that no part of the improvements constructed, erected, or placed by Permittee on the Premises and/or Airport or other real property owned by Permittor shall be or become, or be considered as being, affixed to, or a part of Permittor’s real property, and any and all provisions and principles of law to the contrary withstanding, it being the specific intention of Permittor to covenant and agree that all improvements of every kind and nature constructed, erected, or placed by Permittee on the Premises or other real property owned by Permittor, shall be and remain the property of the Permittee except as provided in Section 18 (Removal of Improvements) of this Permit. Permittee has the right to remove all Permittee’s Equipment at its sole expense on or before the expiration or termination of this Permit. Permittor acknowledges that Permittee may enter into financing arrangements including promissory notes and financial and security agreements for the financing of Permittee’s Equipment (the “Collateral”) with a third party financing entity and may in the future enter into additional financing arrangements with other financing entities. In connection therewith Permittor (i) consents to the installation of the Collateral to the extent that the Collateral is part of the approved Permittee’s Equipment; (ii) disclaims any interest in the Collateral, as fixtures or otherwise; and (iii) agrees that the Collateral shall be exempt from execution, foreclosure, sale, levy, attachment, or distress for any permit fee due or to become due and that such Collateral may be removed at any time without recourse to legal proceedings.
20. EQUIPMENT CONFLICT. Permittee agrees to use equipment of a type and frequency which will not cause interference with communications equipment currently under the operation and control of Permittor or any other communications provider under an existing Permit with Permittor as of the Effective Date hereof. If the Permittor’s communication equipment involves public safety communications and if the Permittee’s equipment causes any interference to public safety communications, the Permittee’s equipment will be immediately taken out of service without exception by Permittee. If Permittee’s equipment interferes with the Permittor’s public safety communications, the determination to take out of service the Permittee’s equipment shall be at the Permittor’s sole discretion, except as provided below:
A. Permittee will not cause radio frequency and/or electrical interference to the existing equipment of Permittor or to any other occupant, Permittee, or any other user ("Existing User") of the Property whose equipment was located at the Property prior to the date Permittee initially installed its Communications Equipment, provided that the equipment used by any Existing User or Permittor is operating within the technical parameters specified by its manufacturers and as defined by the FCC. Upon written notice from Permittor to Permittee of such interference, Permittee will take all reasonable steps to correct such interference in a timely manner. If such interference cannot be corrected within five (5) business days from receipt of Permittor’s Notice, Permittee will cease using its Communications Equipment, except for testing, until such time as Permittee corrects the interference to Permittor's satisfaction. In the event Permittee cannot correct the interference, Permittee will have the option to terminate this Permit without further liability hereunder, upon (30) days written Notice to Permittor and Permittee shall remove its equipment in a timely manner and at Permittee’s sole cost and expense.
B. After the date of this Permit, Permittor will not grant a permit to any other party for use of the Property or modify any existing agreement for use of the Property, or change its use of the Property or permit an existing occupant, tenant, permittee or other user of the Property to make any changes to its use of the Property, if such use would in any way materially adversely affect or interfere with the operation of Permittee’s communication equipment. If another occupant, tenant, permittee or other user of the Property causes uncorrected radio frequency and/or electrical interference with Permittee’s communication equipment, Permittor will require the party causing such interference to either correct such interference or stop using the equipment that is causing the interference. If the interference cannot be corrected within five (5) business days from receipt of Permittee’s Notice, Permittor will cause the party creating the interference to cease using its equipment, except for testing, until the interference has been corrected. If the interference cannot be corrected within five (5) business days from receipt of Permittee’s Notice, Permittor will cause the party creating the interference to cease using its equipment, except for testing, until the interference has been corrected. If after thirty (30) days such interference has not been completely corrected to Permittee’s reasonable satisfaction, Permittee will have the option to terminate this Permit without further liability hereunder.
C. Permittee shall not, subsequent to its initial installation of equipment, make any modification to its equipment or the use thereof during the Term that will cause radio frequency and/or electrical interference to the equipment of Permittor then in operation, nor to that of any other occupant, tenant, permittee or other user of the Airport. Any such user in operation at the time of such modification or change in use shall be considered an Existing User as set forth in Section 20A above, and the provisions of that Section shall apply.
A. REAL PROPERTY TAXES. Permittor shall pay all real property taxes, if any, levied against the Premises. Permittee shall pay its share of any general and special assessments, if any, to the extent assessed against the Premises as a result of Permittee’s improvements thereto or use thereof during the term of this Permit.
B. PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES. Permittee shall pay, or cause to be paid, before delinquency, any and all taxes and assessments levied against Permittee's personal property in the Premises.
C. POSSESSORY INTEREST TAX. Permittee recognizes and understands in executing this Permit that its interest in the Premises created herein may be subject to a "Possessory Interest Tax" that the County Assessor may impose on such interest, and any such tax would be the liability of and be paid solely by Permittee. Permittee agrees to pay promptly when due, any Possessory Interest Tax imposed on its interest in the Premises and/or Airport.
A. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. Any of the following shall constitute an event of default (the “Event of Default”) by Permittee hereunder:
1. A failure to comply with any covenant, condition or representation made under this Permit and such failure continues for fifteen (15) business days (“business day” is defined as Monday through Friday, excluding Holidays) after the date of Permittee’s receipt of written notice from County, provided that if it is not feasible to cure such default within such 15-day period, Permittee shall have a reasonable period to complete such cure if Permittee promptly undertakes action to cure such default within such 15-day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion within sixty (60) days after the receipt of notice of default from Permittor. Permittor shall not be required to provide such notice more than twice in any twelve (12) month period with respect to any material non-monetary defaults and after the second notice in any calendar year, any subsequent failure by Permittee during such 12-month period shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder;
