Construction
Each Service Order shall incorporate by reference
these Terms and Conditions and shall constitute a separate and independent
contractual obligation of Licensor and Customer. In the event of a conflict
between the Terms and Conditions and any Service Order, the language of the
Service Order shall prevail.
1.0
Grant of License; General Terms of Use 1.1
License Grant. By executing this Agreement, Licensor grants to Customer,
on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, a
License for access to and use of the Licensed Area for the Permitted Purpose.
The License shall be revocable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Customer acknowledges that other licensees of Licensor will be using the
Premises and that Licensor reserves the right to install and maintain conduits,
cables and wiring along and adjacent to the ceiling above the Licensed Area
and, in the case of raised flooring, the floor below the Licensed Area. 1.2
Access to Premises and Licensed Area. During the Term, provided that Customer is current
in its payment obligations and has not breached any material term under this
Agreement, Customer's Authorized Personnel shall be permitted to enter onto the
Premises and shall have access to the Licensed Area to perform the work or
services permitted by this Agreement twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7)
days per week. Customer shall be liable for the actions of any Authorized
Personnel. Authorized Personnel must carry photo-identification for
presentation to Licensor or Licensor's agents, employees or representatives
when entering the Premises. Customer shall keep the list of Authorized
Personnel updated and accurate. In addition to the Authorized Personnel,
Customer shall designate one person as the primary account contact and shall
provide the name and contact information for the primary account contact on the
Contact Information page appended to the end of this Agreement. Customer shall
ensure at all times that the primary account contact information is accurate
and complete. In no event shall Customer or any agent, representative,
contractor or invitee of Customer, including without limitation, Authorized
Personnel, have the right to access any portion of the Premises, other than the
common areas and the Licensed Area. Licensor shall have the right to refuse
access to the Premises and Licensed Area to anyone in its reasonable sole
discretion if it determines that such person presents a hazard or security
threat to Licensor or its other customers or if the License granted hereunder
has been suspended or terminated. 1.3
Equipment-Installation/Removal.
1.3.1
Installation. Any delivery, installation, replacement or removal work
with respect to Customer's Equipment shall be subject to review and approval by
Licensor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. From time
to time Licensor may request and Customer shall promptly provide information
regarding Customer's Equipment, systems, proposed rack/cabinet layout and
interconnections/cross-connect diagrams, and the identification of Customer's
suppliers or contractors. All Equipment and Equipment installments shall
strictly adhere to the "Equipment Specifications" section of the Facility Rules. Approval by Licensor is
not an endorsement of Customer's supplier or contractor, and Customer will
remain solely responsible for the selection of the supplier or contractor and
all payments for construction work. Licensor recommends that Customer account
for ceiling heights, existing duct work within the Premises and floor load
limits when designing Equipment installations. Licensor shall have the right to
reject cabinets extending higher than seven feet from the floor due to their
potential to restrict the air flow in the Premises or extend too close to
existing duct work and ladder racking. Customer shall not make, or cause to be
made, any construction changes or material alterations to the interior or
exterior portions of the Premises or Licensed Area, including any cabling or
power supplies for the Equipment, without obtaining Licensor's written approval
for Customer to have the work performed and otherwise complying with the terms
of this Agreement. Licensor shall have no responsibility for any loss or damage
to Customer's Equipment. 1.3.2
Removal. Customer agrees that, upon the expiration or
termination of the License, Customer (or, at Licensor's election, the
contractor designated by Licensor) shall promptly remove, at Customer's sole
cost and expense, all cable, wiring, connecting lines, and other installations,
equipment or property installed or placed by or for Customer in the Premises
(except the Meet-Me-Area, connections within which shall be removed by
Licensor),
2
and restore those portions of the Premises damaged
by such removal to their condition immediately prior to the installation or
placement of such items. If Customer fails to promptly remove all such items
pursuant to this Section 1.3.2, Licensor may, at Customer's expense, remove and
store such items and restore those portions of the Premises damaged by such
removal to their condition immediately prior to the installation or placement
of such items. Any Customer Equipment not claimed by Customer within 60 days of
the expiration or termination of the License shall be deemed abandoned and
ownership of such equipment shall automatically transfer to Licensor.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Customer
shall not be permitted to remove any Customer Equipment from the Licensed Area
at a time when Customer is delinquent in meeting its payment obligations or is
in breach of any material term under this Agreement. 1.4
Cross-Connections. Only upon the prior express written consent of Licensor may
Customer cross-connect its Equipment with equipment or services of any other
customer or tenant of Licensor, including any sub-tenant/sub- licensee within
the Premises. Failure to obtain the prior written consent of Licensor shall
constitute a material breach of this Agreement and Licensor may pursue any
legal or equitable remedy available to it, including immediate removal of such
impermissible cross-connects and/or the immediate termination or suspension of
the License granted by this Agreement without any liability. All installation
and other work relating to the establishment of cross-connections with any
party for which Licensor gives explicit written permission shall be established
under the control and direction of Licensor and shall be carried out in the
Meet-Me-Area.
1.5
Licensed Area Relocation. Licensor shall not arbitrarily or discriminatorily require
Customer to relocate the Equipment to a relocated Licensed Area; however,
Licensor shall have the right to relocate the Licensed Area within the Premises
upon thirty (30) days' advance written notice to Customer or, in the event of
an emergency, as determined by Licensor in its sole discretion, with such
notice as Licensor may deem reasonable under the circumstances.
1.6
Compliance with Laws, Facility Rules & Regulations. Each of Licensor and Customer, at its sole
cost and expense, shall comply with (a) all laws, ordinances, orders, rules and
regulations of state, federal, municipal or other agencies or bodies having
jurisdiction relating to its specific use or manner of use of the Licensed
Area, and (b) all industry standards, practices and procedures. Customer's use
of the Licensed Area, installation of Equipment and access to the Premises
shall at all times be subject to and conditioned upon the strict adherence to
the Facility Rules.
1.7 Inspections. Licensor may conduct reasonable inspections
of the Equipment and Licensed Area as Licensor deems necessary or appropriate.
Licensor will use commercially reasonable efforts to give Customer reasonable
notice of such inspection, but under no circumstances will Licensor be required
to notify Customer or obtain Customer's consent before entering the Licensed
Area.
2.0 Commencement Procedures; Fees and Charges; Security Deposit. 2.1
Commencement Procedures. Customer, subject to the terms and conditions of the
Agreement, shall be permitted to commence occupying the Licensed Area,
provided the Customer has received from Licensor the Licensed Area Delivery
Notice and has returned to Licensor the: a) executed Agreement and Service
Order(s), Tax Exemption Certificate (if applicable) and completed Contact
Information page attached hereto, b) Initial Payment c) Certificate of
Insurance (as required by Section 13 of these Terms and Conditions), and d)
such other information and documents as are required by the Agreement. In the
event the Customer has not completed (or reached, in the sole reasonable
determination of Licensor substantial completion of) occupancy of the Licensed
Area within sixty (60) days following the Service Order Effective Date (or such
other date as may be designated in the Service Order(s) as the "Start
Date"), then Licensor may, in its sole discretion either (i) require of
Customer additional assurances as to a projected occupancy date, (ii) designate
another Licensed Area for the Customer, or (iii) elect by written notice to the
Customer to revoke the applicable License, and thereby Customer shall be
required to promptly vacate the originally designated Licensed Area, at
Customer's expense. 2.2
Recurring and Non-Recurring Fees and Charges. Customer shall pay Licensor in advance the MRC,
which shall include without limitation: charges for use and occupancy of the
Licensed Area, power, interconnectivity, all as set forth in more detail below
and quantified in the applicable Service Order(s). In addition to any MRC, Customer
shall be charged certain NRC for Customer-ordered non-recurring charges,
Licensed Area installation
3
services, cross-connect installation and technical
support. All orders for space, services and technical support shall be filled
at such rates as are in effect at the time of the provision of service, and
Customer shall be responsible for any taxes that legally apply to Customer's
order. In addition to the fees described above, Customer agrees to reimburse
Licensor within 30 days after billing, for Customer's pro rata share of any
costs incurred by Licensor due to the installation, operation, maintenance, use
or licensing of the Premises, such pro rata share to be calculated by dividing
the total number of square feet in Customer's Licensed Area by the total number
of square feet in the applicable Premises. All Customer payments of Fees and
Charges shall be made without setoff against any claims or obligations which
may arise between Customer and Licensor under any other agreement or other
contractual arrangement. 2.3
Ordering. Each order is a commitment for the Term set forth herein,
and may not be cancelled unless the cancelled Services are replaced with new
Services of equal or greater value or Licensor agrees to the cancellation in
writing. Customer may place orders for Services by executing a Service Order or
by submitting an order through the Customer Portal. In order to access the
Customer Portal, the following requirements must be met: (a) the ordering party
must be an existing Customer; (b) Customer's financial account must not be in
arrears and (c) Customer must have contacted customer service to create a
Customer profile and secure a username and password. Customer shall maintain
the confidentiality of its account and password and shall restrict and grant
access thereto. Customer is responsible and liable for all activities that
occur under Customer's account. Licensor does not have any obligation to verify
that anyone using Customer's account and password has Customer's authorization.
2.4
Taxes. Customer agrees to pay or reimburse Licensor for any
applicable taxes which are or may be levied based on the transactions
contemplated hereby and the services provided hereunder, excluding only
Licensor's real estate and income taxes. Any such tax shall be invoiced and
payable in accordance with the payment terms of the Agreement. Licensor agrees
to provide Customer with reasonable documentation to support invoiced amounts
for taxes within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of Customer's written request.
If appropriate, upon execution of this Agreement and as often thereafter as
reasonably requested by Licensor, Customer shall provide Licensor with a
properly executed certificate of tax exemption. Licensor shall give effect to
such certificate on a prospective basis from the date of receipt, subject to
applicable law. 2.5
Invoices. All payments from Customer for MRC shall be due and payable
on the Payment Date. Any payments that remain unpaid five (5) days after the
Payment Date shall be subject to a monthly late fee equal to 10% of the
outstanding payment amount. Invoices for NRC shall be sent to Customer at the
address indicated below and shall contain agreed-upon payment terms. All
amounts are due in US dollars and all fees associated with the transfer or
collection of funds shall be the responsibility of the Customer. 2.6
Adjustment of Fees and Charges. Except as may be provided in any Service Order,
Customer's MRC shall be subject to change following the first year of the
Initial Term of any License granted hereunder. Charges for power shall be
subject to adjustment upon thirty (30) days' advance written notice. Customer's
NRC shall be charged in accordance with the terms of each Service Order on
which they are set forth. 2.7
Security Deposit.
2.7.1
Amount. Upon the signing and delivery of the Agreement to
Licensor, Customer shall deposit with Licensor as security for performance of
Customer's obligations hereunder, cash in the amount of the Security Deposit
which shall be an amount equal to: (a) one month's projected MRC or (b) such
other amount as is set forth in the Security Deposit Amount section on the
applicable Service Order. Licensor shall not be required to maintain the
Security Deposit in a separate account, and except as may be required by law,
Customer shall not be entitled to interest on the Security Deposit. In the
event that Licensor shall transfer all or any part of its interest in the
Premises, Licensor may transfer the Security Deposit to such transferee and,
upon the affirmative assumption of the Security Deposit by the transferee,
shall be released by Customer from any and all liability for the return of the
Security Deposit. Subsequent to the effective date of the Security Deposit
transfer, Customer shall look only to such transferee for the return of the
Security Deposit.
4
2.7.2
Use of Security Deposit; Increase in Security Deposit Amount. If Customer fails to pay any amount when due
hereunder, then Licensor may draw upon the Security Deposit in the amount of
the payment due but not made. If Customer's actual MRC increases or Customer's
required monthly payments are received more than five (5) days after the
Payment Date for two (2) consecutive months, Licensor, in addition to its other
remedies hereunder, shall be entitled at its sole discretion to increase the
required Security Deposit. Within three (3) business days after receipt of
written notice of any deficiency in the amount of the Security Deposit (either
due to withdrawals by Licensor or an increase in the required amount), Customer
shall deposit with Licensor cash in an amount sufficient to restore the
Security Deposit to its original or required increased amount. Customer's
failure to do so shall constitute a material breach hereunder. Within
forty-five (45) days after the later of (a) the expiration or earlier
termination of the Agreement, or (b) Customer's vacating the Premises, and
provided no default exists hereunder, Licensor shall return the Security
Deposit less any portion thereof as Licensor shall have used to satisfy
Customer's obligations under the Agreement. 2.8
Invoice Disputes. Customer shall provide Licensor with notice of any
disputed invoiced amount in writing in accordance with the "Notice"
provisions of this Agreement. Licensor shall not consider any dispute notice
which is sent by Customer more than sixty (60) days following the date of the
invoice in question. The parties will work together to resolve all disputes
within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of the dispute notice. If Customer
was billed in error, Licensor will provide Customer with a credit for the
amount billed incorrectly. If the amount was billed correctly, Customer will
pay the amount within fifteen (15) days of confirmation. Any open dispute that
is not diligently pursued by the Customer beyond the thirty (30) day period
will be considered closed in favor of Licensor and accepted in full. 2.9
Service Commitment Period. The License granted pursuant to the Agreement
constitutes a committed term license. Interconnection Facility Services ordered
pursuant to a signed Service Order shall not be cancelable by Customer except
in accordance with the terms set forth below. 2.9.1
Interconnection Facility Services Commitment. Licensor shall not permit cancellation of
Interconnection Facility Services except as set forth herein. 3.0
Cancellation of Individual Interconnection Facility Services. During the Initial Term, Customer may cancel a
particular Interconnection Facility Service (but not all Interconnection
Facility Services) prior to the expiration of the Initial Term by providing
Licensor with thirty days' prior written notice provided, however, that
Customer must replace the terminated Interconnection Facility Service with
Interconnection Facility Services of equal or greater value in any WiraMaster
Groups or AXS Facility. Cancellation of Interconnection Facility Services
during the Initial Term without a corresponding replacement order for
Interconnection Facility Services shall constitute a de facto termination of
the Agreement effective as of the date upon which the first Interconnection
Facility Service was cancelled and all acceleration amounts shall apply as of
that date. During the Renewal Term, Customer may request cancellation of a
particular Interconnection Facility Service (but not all Interconnection
Facility Services) and Licensor shall evaluate and respond to such requests on
an individual case basis. In the event that Customer's Interconnection Facility
Service cancellations during a Renewal Term, when taken in the aggregate over a
twelve- month period, result in a 50% or greater reduction in Customer's MRC,
Licensor shall be entitled to treat such reductions as a de facto termination
of the Agreement. A de facto termination shall be deemed effective as of the
earliest Interconnection Facility Service cancellation during the relevant
twelve-month period, and all acceleration amounts shall apply as of that date.
4.0
Term. License granted pursuant to this Agreement for use of a
Licensed Area is a committed term license. The Initial Term of this Agreement
shall be twelve (12) months commencing on the Agreement Effective Date. This
Agreement shall be automatically renewable for twelve-month Renewal Terms
thereafter, in each such case subject to earlier termination or revocation for
cause, as provided herein. Under no circumstances will any Service Order
survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. While Customer
has no right to use the Services after the end of the Term, if Customer does
so, Customer will remain bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement
and shall be obligated to pay for such Services at Licensor's then-current
rates for so long as the Services are used by Customer. Licensor shall provide
Services to Customer after the end of the Term at
5
Licensor's sole discretion and Licensor shall be
entitled to terminate provision of the Services at will, such termination to be
effective immediately upon notice to Customer. 4.1
Elective Termination. During the Initial Term, Customer may only terminate
this Agreement or a Service Order for cause as set forth in Section 5 below or
with Licensor's written acceptance of an elective termination. Customer may
request elective termination of the applicable License(s) by submitting to
Licensor one hundred twenty (120) days' prior written notice of the
termination. Should Licensor accept the elective termination, Customer shall
pay to Licensor, by way of liquidated damages and not a penalty, the aggregate
MRC otherwise due for the remainder of the Initial Term (Licensor and Customer
agreeing that Licensor's actual damages in such event are impossible to
ascertain and that the amount set forth above is a reasonable estimate
thereof), such payment to be received by Licensor no later than the effective
date of the elective termination. Following the Initial Term, either party may
effect elective termination of these Terms and Conditions or any Service Order,
effective as of the expiration of the then-current Term, without payment of any
special termination fees, upon one hundred twenty (120) days' prior written
notice to the non-terminating party. 5.0
Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement by giving
written notice of termination to the other party if the other party breaches
any material term or condition of this Agreement as set forth in Section 7
below and fails to cure such breach after written notice of the same. 6.0
Interconnection Facility Services.
6.1
Licensor Services. Licensor shall provide the following Interconnection
Facility Services to Customer in addition to specific services described in any
Service Order. Provided that the License granted hereby has not otherwise been
terminated, revoked or suspended, and provided further that Customer is not in
material breach or default in the performance of any of its obligations under
this Agreement, and is otherwise current in fulfilling its payment obligations
under this Agreement: 6.1.1

Licensed Area consistent with Section 1.2 of this Agreement. 6.1.2

Licensed Area as per the allotment specified in the applicable Service Order.
Licensor shall be responsible for repairing and maintaining the electrical

generator and shall be responsible for repairing and maintaining the generator
and for supplying fuel to the generator. 6.1.3
Facility Maintenance Services. Licensor shall maintain the Premises (but shall
not have an obligation to maintain the Licensed Area) and shall provide
maintenance services in a professional workmanlike manner consistent with
telecommunications industry standards. 6.1.4
Interconnection/Cross-Connect Services. Upon acceptance of a Customer-executed
Service Order, Licensor shall provide Interconnection Services at the pricing
and rates provided in the applicable Service Order. Unless otherwise agreed to
by Licensor, all Interconnection Services shall be performed in the
Meet-Me-Area. In the event a conduit build is required for the purpose of extending
connectivity to termination points outside of the Premises or the Meet-Me-Area
(e.g. to other carriers within the Building not in the Meet-Me-Area), such
conduit build-outs shall be on mutually agreed terms and shall be set forth on
the applicable Service Order. 6.1.5
Air Conditioning. Licensor shall provide air conditioning service to the
Premises consistent with telecommunications industry standards and shall be
responsible for repairing and maintaining the air conditioning equipment. 6.1.6

responsible for repairing and maintaining the fire suppression system in
compliance with telecommunications industry standards.

6.1.7

Premises and shall be responsible for repairing and maintaining the common
overhead lighting system. 6.2
Service Level Agreement. If Licensor fails to provide any of the above
Interconnection Facility Services under the terms defined by this Agreement,
Licensor agrees to provide a credit for service equal to the prorated Licensor
billing for the portion of the MRC relating to the outage in question, provided
Customer notifies Licensor within twenty-four (24) hours of Customer's
inability to use the Interconnection Facility Services and further provided
that the Interconnection Facility Services do not become unusable as a result
of the actions or omissions of Customer, Customer's Authorized Personnel or
circumstances or events beyond Licensor's control. 6.3
Repairs & Maintenance. Licensor shall use its good-faith efforts to provide
Customer (except in the case of emergency, in which event Licensor shall use
reasonable efforts, but shall not be required, to provide Customer with prior
notice) not less than twenty four (24) hours prior notice of Licensor's intent
to conduct facility maintenance services and planned repairs (including, but
not limited to electrical, mechanical or plumbing work) that may disrupt the
provision of Licensor's services to Customer. In the event such work will
materially disrupt and/or interfere with the business of Customer within the
Premises, Licensor and Customer will cooperate to determine an appropriate
maintenance window to conduct such work. However, in emergency situations
Licensor shall use reasonable care and precaution in order to minimize the
disruption in Customer's business without the creation of a maintenance window.
7.0
Breach of Agreement; Revocation of License.
7.1
Breach by Customer. Each of the following shall constitute a material
breach by Customer of this Agreement and all Service Orders related thereto:
(a) failure by Customer to make when due payment to Licensor of any amounts due
under the Agreement, including late fees and any other charges, and failure to
make such payment within five (5) days of a Breach Notice identifying such
failure; (b) violation by Customer of any provision of the Agreement (other
than a provision related to payment) and failure to cure such violation within
five (5) days of a Breach Notice identifying the same; (c) material breach by
Customer of any other agreement, including the terms of any Service Order,
between Licensor (or any of its affiliate companies) and Customer and failure
to cure such violation within five (5) days of a Breach Notice identifying the
same; (d) any insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors,
appointment of a trustee or receiver or similar event with respect to Customer
if such proceeding is not dismissed within thirty (30) days of filing; or (e)
cessation of operations by Customer without payment to Licensor of all amounts
owed or owing to Licensor through the date upon which Customer ceased
operations. In the case of (a) above, Licensor shall be entitled to restrict
Customer's access to and to suspend provision of power to the Licensed Area. 7.2
Breach by Licensor. Each of the following shall constitute a breach by
Licensor of this Agreement and any Service Orders related thereto: (a) any
material breach by Licensor of any provision of the Agreement that is not cured
within thirty days of a Breach Notice identifying the same; or (b) any
insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, appointment of
a trustee or receiver or similar event with respect to Licensor if such
proceeding is not dismissed within thirty (30) days of filing. 7.3
Licensor's Remedies. In the event Customer breaches this Agreement in
accordance with Sections 7.1(a), 7.1(b) or 7.1(c) above, Licensor shall have
the right (without limitation of any other remedies hereunder or under
applicable law or in equity) in its sole discretion, upon provision of a
Default Notice to Customer, to revoke or suspend (in whole or in part) the
revocable License granted hereby. Each of 7.1(d) and 7.1(e) above shall result
in the automatic termination of this Agreement and all Service Orders related
thereto and the aggregate MRC otherwise due for the remainder of the
then-current Term shall become immediately due and payable to Licensor. In
addition to the foregoing, and without limiting any other remedies of Licensor
hereunder, or under applicable law or in equity, in the event of Customer's
failure to cure any non-payment of fees and/or charges described in the related
Breach Notice and subsequent Default Notice, Licensor shall be entitled to
immediately or at any time thereafter terminate the Agreement, and the
Agreement shall be deemed to have been terminated upon receipt by Customer of
written notice of such termination. Upon such termination, Licensor shall be
entitled to recover from Customer all damages Licensor may suffer by reason of
such termination, all arrearages in Fees and Charges and other costs, charges,
assessments, and reimbursements, the cost (including, without limitation, court
costs and 7
attorneys' fees) of recovering possession of the
Premises, and, in addition thereto, Licensor may declare to be due and payable
immediately, the aggregate MRC and other charges and assessments that would
otherwise become due and payable during the remainder of the Term (in the
absence of the termination of the Agreement). Upon the acceleration of such
amounts, Customer agrees to pay the same at once, and further agrees such
payment shall not constitute a penalty or forfeiture, but shall constitute
liquidated damages for Customer's failure to comply with the terms and
provisions of this Agreement (Licensor and Customer agreeing that Licensor's
actual damages in such event are impossible to ascertain and that the amount
set forth above is a reasonable estimate thereof). Furthermore, and without
limiting any other remedies of Licensor hereunder, under applicable law or in
equity, in the event of Customer's failure to cure any non-payment of fees and/or
charges described in the related Default Notice, Licensor shall be entitled to
prevent and otherwise take all commercially reasonable steps to restrict
Customer's access to and/or removal of any Equipment from the affected Licensed
Area ("Customer Equipment Retention"). Customer MRC (including power
charges, to extent provision of power has not been suspended) shall continue to
accrue and be payable by Customer, notwithstanding Licensor exercise of
available remedies set forth herein. Licensor's right to Customer Equipment
Retention shall continue until such time as Customer shall have paid in full
all Fees and Charges due Licensor under this Agreement. In the event Customer
fails to pay in full all amounts due, and has not responded to any Breach Notice
or Default Notice within one hundred twenty (120) days of the date thereof,
Licensor shall be entitled, in connection with any Customer Equipment
Retention, to treat such Equipment as having been abandoned, and Licensor shall
be entitled to retain ownership and possession of, and otherwise sell, transfer
and/or dispose of said Equipment, consistent with applicable law. 7.4
Customer's Remedies. In the event Licensor breaches this Agreement in
accordance with Section 7.2(a) or 7.2(b) above, Customer shall have the right,
ten (10) days after submission of a Default Notice to Licensor, to terminate
this Agreement and the Service Order(s) related to Licensor's uncured breach.

to damage or destruction of the Premises and the License shall terminate as of
the date of such exercise or decision as to the affected Licensed Area, and the
MRC to be paid by Customer shall be adjusted accordingly. If Licensor does not
exercise the right to terminate, then Licensor shall restore the Premises to
substantially the same condition it was in prior to the damage, completing the
same with reasonable speed considering all of the facts and circumstances. In
no event shall Licensor have any obligation to repair or replace Equipment. In
the event that Licensor shall fail to complete the repair within a reasonable
time period under the circumstances, Customer shall thereupon have the option
to terminate the relevant License and applicable Service Order(s) with respect
to the affected Licensed Area, which option shall be the sole remedy available
to Customer against Licensor under this Agreement relating to such failure. If
the Licensed Area or any portion thereof shall be rendered unusable by reason
of such damage, the MRC for such Licensed Area shall proportionately abate,
based on the amount of square footage of the Licensed Area which is rendered
unusable, for the period from the date of such damage to the date when such
damage shall have been repaired for the portion of the Licensed Area rendered
unusable.

be authorized to do business in the state in which the Facility is located.
Prior to occupying the Licensed Area, Customer shall submit to Licensor
evidence that Customer has the insurance policies required hereunder in effect
and shall provide to Licensor certificates, with copies of all applicable
endorsements attached, to Licensor before the commencement of this License.
Customer shall ensure that Licensor receives at least ten (10) days' prior
written notice before any policy is cancelled or materially modified. If any
work is to be performed for Customer's improvements, the certificate shall be
delivered by Customer to Licensor prior to commencement of the improvements. If
Customer fails to obtain the necessary coverages, Licensor may obtain such
coverages at Customer's expense or Customer will sign a letter Agreement
holding Licensor harmless from loss. Customer's property insurance shall
include a waiver of subrogation in favor of Licensor. Failure to comply with
this Section 13 shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement. 14.0
No Property Interest; Sole Use of Licensed Area by Customer;
No Assignment or Sub-License. Customer acknowledges that the rights granted to
Customer hereunder do not constitute an easement of any portion of the
Premises. Customer further acknowledges that it has been granted only a license
to occupy the Licensed Area and that it has not been granted any real property
interest in the Licensed Area or the Premises. Customer further agrees that,
subject to required procedures and conditions to any sublicense (set forth
below), none of this Agreement, any Service Order or any interest created
herein shall be assigned, mortgaged, subleased, sub-licensed, encumbered or
otherwise transferred by Customer by any act or omission on the part of
Customer, directly or indirectly, including by way of any transfer of all or
any portion of the ownership interests or assets of Customer to a third party,
without Licensor's prior written consent. Customer further agrees that neither
the Licensed Area or any part thereof shall be used or occupied, nor permitted
to be used or occupied, by any entity (including any affiliated entity) other
than Customer. Any attempt to allow the use or occupancy of the Licensed Area
by any entity other than Customer, or to assign, mortgage, sublease,
sub-license or encumber any rights under this Agreement by Customer shall be
void and constitute a material breach of the License granted hereby, unless
otherwise agreed to in writing by Licensor. In the event Customer desires to
sub-license or assign this Agreement, Customer shall pay to Licensor $1,500 to
cover the legal costs of the sub-license or assignment documentation review.

which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and shall: (i) incorporate all of the
terms and conditions (other than economic/commercial terms) contained in, and

affirmative assumption by the Sub-licensee of all of the obligations of
Customer contained in this Agreement; (iii) contain a provision for Licensor to
enforce as against any Sub-licensee directly any of the provisions contained in

against the building, the Premises or property of Licensor, or any improvement
thereon by reason of or arising out of any labor or materials furnished or
alleged to have been furnished or to be furnished to or for Customer or by
reason of any changes, or additions to Licensor property made at the request or
under the direction of the Customer, Customer shall, within thirty (30) days
after receipt of written notice from Licensor either pay such lien or cause the
same to be bonded off in the manner provided by law. Customer shall also defend
on behalf of Licensor, at Customer's sole cost and expense, any action, suit or
proceeding which may be brought for the enforcement of such liens and Customer
shall pay any damage and discharge any judgment entered thereon. 16.0
Subordination. All rights of Customer hereunder are and shall be
subject and subordinate in all respects to all security interests on the
Premises and in the assets of Licensor. This Section 16 shall be self-operative
and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. In confirmation
of such subordination, Customer shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver
any instrument that Licensor or the landlord of the Premises may reasonably
request to evidence such subordination. Customer covenants and agrees not to
execute any security agreements, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements,
chattel mortgages, conditional bills of sale, leases or other title retention
agreements or any modifications, extensions, replacement or amendments thereto
in connection with the purchase of, or covering or affecting any fixtures,
equipment or personal property used at the Premises, except to the extent the
same relate only to Customer's property: (a) which does not constitute a
fixture or part of the Premises under the law of the State within which the

(ii) pay or offer to pay any employee of Licensor any compensation (in cash or

reasonable control.
17.4
No Waiver; Binding Effect; Amendment; Merger. The failure of Licensor to enforce or insist
upon compliance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including
Facility Rules) or the waiver thereof, in any instance, shall not be construed
as a waiver or relinquishment of any other instance, or of any other provision
of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. This
Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing, executed by
the parties. This Agreement supersedes and merges all prior agreements,
promises, understandings, statements representations, warranties, indemnities
and covenants and all inducements to the making of this Agreement relied upon
by either 11
party, whether written or oral, and embodies the
parties' complete and entire agreement with respect to the subject matter
hereof. No representation, statement or agreement, oral or written, made before
the execution of this Agreement shall vary or modify the written terms hereof
in any way whatsoever. 17.57
Choice of Law; Severability. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE IN ALL RESPECTS GOVERNED AND
CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE WITHIN WHICH THE
LICENSED AREA IS LOCATED, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND
PERFORMANCE, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES. If any term or
provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal, unenforceable or
invalid in whole or in part, for any reason, such illegal, unenforceable or
invalid provision or part shall be stricken from this Agreement and such
provision shall not affect the legality, enforceability or validity of the
remainder of this Agreement. 17.6
Further Assurances; Customer Certifications. The parties shall, at their own cost and
expense, execute and deliver such further documents and instruments and shall
take such other actions as may be reasonably required or appropriate to carry
out the intended purposes of this Agreement. In such regard, Customer agrees,

other form of certification as may be necessary or advisable to confirm the
commercial terms and status of this Agreement and any License granted
hereunder. 17.7
Counterparts; Agreement by Facsimile Transmission. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which,
taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument. Each party agrees
that the execution and delivery of this Agreement by facsimile shall have the
same force and effect as delivery of original signatures and that each party
may use such facsimile signatures as evidence of the execution and delivery of
this Agreement by the parties to the same extent that an original signature
could be used. 17.8
Notices.
All notices or consents required or permitted to
be given hereunder shall be in writing to the Customer at the address set forth
in the "Certain Required Information" section set forth above and to
the Licensor if sent to the appropriate WiraMaster Groups. 801 Main Street NW,
Lenoir, NC 28645 esupport@wiramaster.com . Notices shall be deemed to be
duly given if sent via: (a) hand delivery, (b) certified mail return receipt
requested postage prepaid, (c) nationally recognized overnight courier service,
(d) via e-mail provided such e-mail is affirmatively acknowledged by the
receiving party. 17.9
Confidentiality. a) Each party expressly undertakes to retain in
confidence all Confidential Information (including, with respect to Customer,
the identification of other licensees of space at the Premises) and know-how,
in whatever form transmitted. This obligation shall extend to the disclosing
party's Confidential Information and to any third party Confidential
Information that the disclosing party has in its possession under obligations
of confidentiality and discloses in any way to the receiving party. The
receiving party shall treat the Confidential Information with the same degree
of care as it uses to protect its own confidential information of like
importance, but in no event with less than reasonable care, and will make no
use of such Confidential Information during the existence of this Agreement except
as otherwise specified herein. The Receiving Party shall have no obligation to
maintain the confidentiality of information that: (i) it received rightfully
from another party without restrictions on disclosure prior to its receipt from
the disclosing party; (ii) the disclosing party has disclosed to an
unaffiliated third party without any obligation to maintain such information in
confidence; (iii) is or becomes available to the public through no breach of
this Agreement; (iv) is approved for release by the disclosing party, but only
to the extent of such authorization; (v) is independently developed by the
receiving party or (vi) is required by law or regulation to be disclosed, but
only to the extent and for the purposes of such required disclosure, and only
if the receiving party first gives sufficient notice to the disclosing party of
the requirement for the disclosure in order to allow the disclosing party an
opportunity to obtain an appropriate protective order. The parties agree that a
breach of the terms of this Section 17.9 would result in irreparable injury to
the disclosing party for which a remedy in damages would be inadequate.
Customer shall not issue any press release or public announcement with respect
to Customer's point of presence in any WiraMaster Groups Facility without first
securing Licensor's approval of such press release or public announcement. The
parties agree that in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the
disclosing party shall be entitled to seek an injunction to prevent the breach
or threatened breach, in addition to remedies otherwise available for such
specific performance or injunctive relief, that the disclosing party has an
12
adequate remedy at law. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Customer grants to Licensor a license to use Customer's name and
logo in connection with Licensor's marketing and publicity efforts, including
use in press releases, brochures and advertising and upon Licensor's request,
will issue a joint press release announcing Customer's presence in each WiraMaster
Groups Facility. 17.107
Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in all things to be done,
including all payments to be made by Customer under this Agreement. 17.117
Attorney's Fees. In the event of any legal action by which Licensor
either seeks to enforce or defend its rights under this Agreement or any
License granted hereunder (whether in contract, tort or both) or seeks a
declaration of any rights or obligations under this Agreement, Customer shall
pay Licensor's attorney's fees and court costs. 17.127
Entire Agreement. The Service Order(s) referenced in and attached to
these Terms and Conditions, as well as the subsequent Service Orders executed
in connection with these Terms and Conditions, form a part of and shall be
deemed an integral part hereof to the same extent as if written in whole herein.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed these Terms and Conditions as of
the date first written above.
