monitor the facility's type of use and remit appropriate annual fees if and when
applicable.
All other terms and conditions of the Permit remain in full force and effect.

incurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City may contest the validity of any such lien provided that the
City delivers a bond to PSE in the amount of the contested lien.

others, the City shall, prior to commencing such Work, notify PSE in writing of any actual or apparent
deficiencies or defects in such other work that render, it unsuitable for performance of the Work.

suitable for performance of the Work, except as to latent defects which may subsequently be
discovered in such other work.
3.10 Upon completion of Permitted Activities which may disturb the surface or
subsurface of the Site (or any improvements thereon), the City shall restore the Site (and any improvements
thereon) to a condition as good or better then the condition the Site (or such improvements) was in prior to such
disturbance.
3.11 If, in undertaking Permitted Activities (or activities off.Site in furtherance of
Permitted Activities), the City shall cause significant public concern with or opposition to its proposed use of
the Site, and PSE shall reasonably conclude that such public concern or opposition will materially interfere with

desist such acts (or omissions) giving rise to such public opposition or concern.
3.12 The City shall copy PSE's l' &D Planning & Analysis Department Director on all

by PSE. lfthe City fails to remove or relocate its Equipment within one hundred eighty (180) days (or such
shorter period of time as PSE may reasonably require under the circumstances) after being directed to do so by
PSE, PSE may remove or relocate the Equipment at the City's sole risk and expense, and the City shall
reimburse PSE for the entire expenses thereby incurred.
4.4 In the event the City is pennitted to and does install any pole, tower or other
structure as part of the Equipment on the Site, PSE shall have the right, subject to such reasonable rules and
requirements as the parties may agree upon in writing, to install one or more items of equipment on such pole,
tower or other structure for PSE's internal purposes only, provided that the pole, tower or structure in question is

problems with other radio communications equipment located at the Site on the date of this Permit or any radio
communications equipment located at the Site on any future date when the City modifies or supplements its
Equipment at the Site.
6. Cooperation of PSE. PSE shall, at the City's expense, support the City's efforts to secure any
documents or applications required (Le., by virtue ofPSE's ownership of or rights in the Site) to be obtained by
the City from any governmental agency with jurisdiction in order for the City to obtain the necessary licenses,
permits or other approvals from such governmental agency for the Pennitted Activities; provided, however, that
PSE shall not under any circumstances be obligated to execute any application or other document that, in PSE's
sole judgment, will in any way impair, limit or adversely affect PSE' s rights in or ownership or use of the Site,
nor shall PSE be obligated to provide such support if the same requires a commitment of resources of any kind
ofa value in excess of five hundred dollars ($500.00).
7. Emerl!encies. In the event of an emergency relating to the Equipment or the Site, the City shall
immediately correct any safety or use problems, even if full repair cannot be made at the time, in order to
protect persons and property or to allow use of the Site. The Parties' respective emergency phone numbers are
as follows:
PSE: 1 (800) 448-8930
City of Federal Way:
Each Party shall promptly notify the other of any change in such party's emergency phone number.
8. Ownership and Risk of Loss of Eauipment.
8.1 The Equipment located at the Site pursuant to the terms of this Permit will at all
times be and remain the property of the City and will not be subject to any lien or encumbrance created or
suffered by PSE. the City has the right to make such filings with the Washington State Department of
Licensing (e.g., UCC-1 Financing Statement) as it deems necessary or desirable to evidence its ownership of the
Equipment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, upon termination or expiration of the Term, the Equipment is
not removed from the Site and the Site restored according to the terms of this Permit, such Equipment shall be
deemed abandoned ninety (90) days following such termination or expiration and PSE's waiver of lien shall
thereafter be void and of no further force and effect.
8.2 The City shall be responsible for and shall bear any and all risk ofloss, deterioration,
theft, vandalism or destruction of or damage to the Equipment and anything used (or to be used or consumed) in
connection with the Work.
9. Examination of Records. The City shall promptly furnish PSE with such information related to the
Work or the Equipment as may from time to time be reasonably requested by PSE. Until the expiration of three
(3) years after the termination ofthe Term, PSE shall have access to and the right to examine and copy all of the
City's books, documents, papers and records which are related to the Work, the Equipment or this Permit during
regular business hours and after 10 days written notice to the City.
10. Compensation.
10.1 The "Annual Fee" shall mean the annual fee for the City's use of the Site as
calculated in accordance with the schedule set forth in the attached Appendix 4 and the following:
City of Federal Way
21st SW and 32Sth Place
Page S
10.1.1 the Annual Fee will be payable on or before the date of this Permit and
thereafter on the fIrst day of the fIrst month following each anniversary of the commencement date of
the Master Agreement, and
10.1.2 the Annual Fee will be prorated in the fIrst and last year of this Permit to
coincide with the anniversary of the commencement date of the Master Agreement, except that the
Annual Fee for the Site will continue past any termination of the Term of this Permit if and until all of
the Equipment is removed from the Site and restoration of the Site has occurred according to the
provisions of this Permit.
10.2 PSE shall invoice the City for all amounts payable by the City to PSE under this
Pennit (including, without limitation, the Annual Fees and all reimbursable costs and expenses described
elsewhere in this Permit) as they become due. the City shall pay each such invoice in full within thirty (30)
days after the City's receipt thereof.
10.3 The City acknowledges that late payment of any fee or other amounts due to PSE
under this Permit will cause PSE to incur certain administrative, processing accounting costs not otherwise
contemplated by this Permit, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to
ascertain. Accordingly, if any fee or other amounts shall not be received by PSE within thirty (30) days after
such amounts shall fIrst become due, the City shall pay to PSE a late charge, as liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, equal to two percent (2%) of such overdue amounts as a reasonable estimate of the administrative,
processing and accounting costs PSE will incur by reason of late payment by the City. Such late charge is
intended to be in lieu of the City's liability for such costs, but shall not relieve or release the City from liability
for any other costs or damages suffered by PSE by reason of late payment. Payment of such late charge shall in
no event excuse or cure any default under or breach of this Permit by the City.
10.4 In addition to any late charge levied under this Permit, the City shall pay to PSE
interest, compounded daily, at the rate of one percent (1 %) per month or the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law, whichever is less, on any fees or other amounts not paid to PSE when due under this Permit,
from the date due until the date paid. Payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any breach of or default
under this Permit by the City.
11. Taxes. The City shall pay (except as otherwise required by law) all fees and taxes applicable to or
incurred in connection with the Work, the Equipment or the system of which the Equipment constitutes a part.
Subject to the foregoing, PSE shall pay all taxes and other fees or charges attributable to each Site (including,
without limitation, debt and ground lease obligations).
12. Site AcceDtance.
12.1 The City will be deemed to have accepted the Site upon execution of this Site
Permit. Conducting feasibility and cost assessments or other preliminary inspections on the Site prior to
execution of this Site Permit shall not be deemed to be acceptance.
12.2 Acceptance of the Site by the City in accordance with paragraph 12.1 shall be
conclusive evidence that the City:
12.2.1 accepts the Site as suitable for the Permitted Activities;
12.2.2 accepts the Site and any structure on the Site and every part and
appurtenance thereof "AS IS," "WHERE IS" and "WITH ALL FAULTS AND DEFECTS"; and
12.2.3 releases, and waives all claims against, PSE in respect of defects in the Site
and its structures and appurtenances, their habitability or suitability for any permitted purposes, except
as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement.
12.3 PSE does not warrant the title of the Site (or the real property on which the Site is
located) or the suitability of the Site for the purposes for which the City may desire to use it (including, without
limitation, the Permitted Activities); nor does PSE warrant the adequacy of the title, location or condition of the
Site (or the real property on which the Site is located), or the title or condition of any structure or appurtenances
for any purpose. the City acknowledges that, in accepting the Site (and the underlying real property and any
and all structures thereon used by the City for Permitted Activities) in its "AS IS," "WHERE IS" and "WITH

amounts recoverable by PSE hereunder shall consist of fully allocated costs for labor
(including but not limited to all payroll costs and overhead and all applicable engineering,
supervision, and administrative overheads), transportation, employee expenses, attorneys
fees, reprographic services, supplies, telephone service and other expenses. Without limiting

whatsoever with respect to the Equipment, a proposed Site Permit or any request made by the
City pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

shall, as of the date of this Agreement, be one thousand two hundred dollars plus $250.00

approximation of the total costs and expenses of PSE to be reimbursed by the City for the
services, and nothing herein will relieve the City of its obligation to reimburse PSE for the
full amount of the actual costs and expenses reasonably incurred by PSE in connection with
the services (as required in paragraph 4.1), and if such good faith estimate exceeds the actual
costs incurred, the balance of any advance payment shall be returned to the City within forty

work so as to minimize any delay or hindrance of any work.
3.9.11 If any part of the Work depends upon the results of other work by PSE or
others, the City shall, prior to commencing such Work, notify PSE in writing of any actual or apparent
deficiencies or defects in such other work that render it unsuitable for performance of the Work.
Failure of the City to so notify PSE shall constitute an acceptance by the City of such other work as
suitable for performance of the Work, except as to latent defects which may subsequently be
discovered in such other work.
3.10 Upon completion of Permitted Activities which may disturb the surface or
subsurface of the Site (or any improvements thereon), the City shall restore the Site (and any improvements

3.11 If, in undertaking Permitted Activities (or activities off-Site in furtherance of
Permitted Activities), the City shall cause significant public concern with or opposition to its proposed use of
the Site, and PSE shall reasonably conclude that such public concern or opposition will materially interfere with
its use of the Site or otherwise with the conduct ofPSE's business, then PSE may direct the City to cease and
desist such acts (or omissions) giving rise to such public opposition or concern.
3.12 The City shall copy PSE's T &D Planning & Analysis Department Director on all

manner that does not materially affect the structural integrity of any structure on the Site. If the City fails to do
any maintenance within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from PSE requesting such maintenance, then PSE
may, at its option, do such maintenance at the City's expense and the City shall reimburse PSE for the entire
expense thereby incurred. If the City commences the requested maintenance within thirty (30) days after any
written notice from PSE requesting such maintenance and thereafter continuously and diligently pursues and
completes such maintenance, then the thirty (30) day cure period will extend for an additional sixty (60) days to
permit the City to complete the requested maintenance.

immediately install temporary Equipment on any alternate location specified in the Site Development Plan
while PSE makes repairs to the Site.
4.3 IfPSE at any time relocates, replaces or removes any pole, tower or other facility or
silucture on which any Equipment is attached, or PSE otherwise determines in its reasonable judgment that any

City of Federal Way
Master Agreement 6-27-05 Exhibit B
Page 14
shall, at its sole cost and expense, remove or relocate such Equipment at such times and in the manner directed
by PSE. If the City fails to remove or relocate its Equipment within one hundred eighty (180) days (or such
shorter period of time as PSE may reasonably require under the circumstances) after being directed to do so by
PSE, PSE may remove or relocate the Equipment at the City's sole risk and expense, and the City shall
reimburse PSE for the entire expenses thereby incurred.
4.4 In the event the City is permitted to and does install any pole, tower or other
structure as part of the Equipment on the Site, PSE shall have the right, subject to such reasonable rules and
requirements as the parties may agree upon in writing, to install one or more items of equipment on such pole,
tower or other structure for PSE's internal purposes only, provided that the pole, tower or structure in question is
structurally capable of bearing the weight ofPSE's equipment. Such installation and use shall be at PSE's cost
and expense, but the City shall not levy any charge or fee for PSE's use thereof.
5. Nonexclusivity. This Permit is nonexclusive, and PSE may grant rights to others to use the Site for
any purpose not inconsistent with the City's rights hereunder, including competing telecommunications

Without limiting any other provision of this Permit, the City will promptly resolve technical interference
problems with other radio communications equipment located at the Site on the date of this Permit or any radio
communications equipment located at the Site on any future date when the City modifies or supplements its
Equipment at the Site.

documents or applications required (i.e., by virtue ofPSE's ownership of or rights in the Site) to be obtained by
tlle City from any governmental agency with jurisdiction in order for the City to obtain the necessary licenses,
permits or other approvals from such governmental agency for the Permitted Activities; provided, however, that
PSE shall not under any circumstances be obligated to execute any application or other document that, in PSE's
sole judgment, will in any way impair, limit or adversely affect PSE's rights in or ownership or use of the Site,
nor shall PSE be obligated to provide such support if the same requires a commitment of resources of any kind
of a value in excess of five hundred dollars ($500.00).
7. Emenrencies. In the event of an emergency relating to the Equipment or the Site, the City shall
immediately correct any safety or use problems, even if full repair cannot be made at the time, in order to
protect persons and property or to allow use of the Site. The Parties' respective emergency phone numbers are
as follows:
PSE: 1 (800) 448-8930
City of Federal Way:
Each Party shall promptly notify the other of any change in such party's emergency phone number.
8. Ownershio and Risk of Loss of Eouinment.
8.1 The Equipment located at the Site pursuant to the terms of this Permit will at all
times be and remain the property of the City and will not be subject to any lien or encumbrance created or
suffered by PSE. the City has the right to make such filings with the Washington State Department of
Licensing (e.g., UCC-l Financing Statement) as it deems necessary or desirable to evidence its ownership of the
Equipment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, upon termination or expiration of the Term, the Equipment is
not removed from the Site and the Site restored according to the terms of this Permit, such Equipment shall be
deemed abandoned ninety (90) days following such termination or expiration and PSE's waiver of lien shall
thereafter be void and of no further force and effect.
8.2 The City shall be responsible for and shall bear any and all risk of loss, deterioration,
theft, vandalism or destruction of or damage to the Equipment and anything used (or to be used or consumed) in
connection with the Work.
9. Examination of Records. The City shall promptly furnish PSE with such information related to the
Work or the Equipment as may from time to time be reasonably requested by PSE. Until the expiration of three
(3) years after the termination ofthe Term, PSE shall have access to and the right to examine and copy all of the
City's books, documents, papers and records which are related to the Work, the Equipment or this Permit during
regular business hours and after 10 days written notice to the City.
10. COffinensation.
10.1 The "Annual Fee" shall mean the annual fee for the City's use of the Site as
calculated in accordance with the schedule set forth in the attached Appendix 4 and the following:
City of Federal Way
Master Agreement 6-27-05 Exhibit B
Page 15
10.1.1 the Annual Fee will be payable on or before the date of this Permit and
thereafter on the ftrst day of the ftrst month following each anniversary of the commencement date of
the Master Agreement, and
10.1.2 the Annual Fee will be prorated in the ftrst and last year of this Permit to
coincide with the anniversary of the commencement date of the Master Agreement, except that the
Annual Fee for the Site will continue past any termination of thc Term of this Permit if and until all of
the Equipment is removed from the Site and restoration of the Site has occurred according to the
provisions of this Permit.
10.2 PSE shall invoice the City for all amounts payable by the City to PSE under this
Permit (including, without limitation, the Annual Fees and all reimbursable costs and expenses described
elsewhere in this Permit) as they become due. the City shall pay each such invoice in full within thirty (30)
days after the City's receipt thereof.
10.3 The City acknowledges that late payment of any fee or other amounts due to PSE
under this pennit will cause PSE to incur certain administrative, processing accounting costs not otherwise
contemplated by this Permit, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to
ascertain. Accordingly, if any fee or other amounts shall not be received by PSE within thirty (30) days after
such amounts shall ftrst become due, the City shall pay to PSE a late charge, as liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, equal to two percent (2%) of such overdue amounts as a reasonable estimate of the administrative,
processing and accounting costs PSE will incur by reason of late payment by the City. Such late charge is
intended to be in lieu of the City's liability for such costs, but shall not relieve or release the City from liability
for any other costs or damages suffered by PSE by reason of late payment. Payment of such late charge shall in
no event excuse or cure any default under or breach of this Permit by the City.
10.4 In addition to any late charge levied under this Permit, the City shall pay to PSE
interest, compounded daily, at the rate of one percent (1 %) per month or the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law, whichever is less, on any fees or other amounts not paid to PSE when due under this Permit,
from the date due until the date paid. Payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any breach of or default
under this Permit by the City.
11. Taxes. The City shall pay (except as otherwise required by law) all fees and taxes applicable to or
incurred in connection with the Work, the Equipment or the system of which the Equipment constitutes a part.
Subject to the foregoing, PSE shall pay all taxes and other fees or charges attributable to each Site (including,
without limitation, debt and ground lease obligations).
12. Site Acceptance.
12.1 The City will be deemed to have accepted the Site upon execution of this Site
Permit. Conducting feasibility and cost assessments or other preliminary inspections on the Site prior to
execution of this Site Permit shall not be deemed to be acceptance.
12.2 Acceptance of the Site by the City in accordance with paragraph 12.1 shall be
conclusive evidence that the City:
12.2.1 accepts the Site as suitable for the Permitted Activities;
12.2.2 accepts the Site and any structure on the Site and every part and
appurtenance thereof "AS IS," "WHERE IS" and "WITH ALL FAULTS AND DEFECTS"; and
12.2.3 releases, and waives all claims against, PSE in respect of defects in the Site
and its structures and appurtenances, their habitability or suitability for any permitted purposes, except
as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement.
12.3 PSE does not warrant the title of the Site (or the real property on which the Site is
located) or the suitability of the Site for the purposes for which the City may desire to use it (including, without
limitation, the Permitted Activities); nor does PSE warrant the adequacy of the title, location or condition of the
Site (or the real property on which the Site is located), or the title or condition of any structure or appurtenances
for any purpose. the City acknowledges that, in accepting the Site (and the underlying real property and any
and all structures thereon used by the City for Permitted Activities) in its "AS IS," "WHERE IS" and "WITH
ALL FAULTS AND DEFECTS" condition, PSE makes no representations or warranties whatsoever concerning
the Site, the underlying real property and/or such structures, or any aspect of their title, status or condition, and
that the City is not in any way relying on infonnation disclosed by PSE with respect thereto, or otherwise in
PSE's possession with respect thereto; rather, the City is solely relying on its own inspections and assessments
with respect to the title, condition or status of the Site, the underlying real property and/or such structures.

Permit;
14.1.5 the City deserts, abandons, or vacates any portion of a Site and fails to
maintain any and all Equipment remaining at the Site.

remove all Equipment from the Site and restore the Site to its original condition except for reasonable use, wear
and tear. The City will repair any damage to the Site caused during the removal of the Equipment. Following
expiration of the above period, PSE shall furnish to the City a list of any removal, restoration, repair or other
work that remains to be completed at the Site as required by the first two sentences of this Section 15. The City
will thereafter complete the work specified on the list within ten (to) days after receipt of the list from PSE, or
within a reasonable period of time that does not exceed a maximum of thirty (30) days if such work cannot

against any claim, loss, cost, liability, damage or expense to the extent the same is caused by or results from the
negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnitee(s). In connection with any action to enforce this
paragraph 17.1, the City waives any immunity, defense, or protection under any workers' compensation,
industrial insurance or similar laws (including, but not limited to, the Washington Industrial Insurance Act, Title
