NextG Networks of California Inc - FY2012-001 CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES
RIGHT-OF-WAY USE AGREEMENT
THIS RIGHT-OF-WAY USE AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into on
September 6 , 2011 ("Effective Date"), by the CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES,
a California municipal corporation ("City"), and NEXTG NETWORKS OF CALIFORNIA,
INC., a Delaware corporation ("NextG").
RECITALS
A. NextG owns, maintains, operates and controls, in accordance with
regulations promulgated by the Federal Communications Commission and the
California Public Utilities Commission, a fiber-based telecommunications Network (as
defined in Section 1.9 below) serving NextG's wireless carrier customers and using
microcellular optical repeater Equipment (as defined in Section 1.4 below) certified by
the Federal Communications Commission.
B. NextG represents that it holds a valid and unrevoked certificate of public
convenience and necessity that was issued by the California Public Utilities Commission
in its Decision No. 03-01-061 that became effective on January 30, 2003. NextG further
represents that since its initial issuance of a CPCN, NextG applied for and was issued a
full Facilities-based CPCN by the CPUC in its decision No. 07-04-045 that became
effective on April 12, 2007. This certificate recites NextG's authority to partake in
construction activities consistent with the decision and CPCN U-6745-C.
C. For the purpose of operating the Network and improving wireless
coverage and capacity in the City, NextG wishes to locate, place, attach, install,
operate, control, and maintain Equipment in the Public Way (as defined in Section 1.11
below) on facilities owned by the City and by third parties at locations that have been or
will have been approved by the City pursuant to its customary permitting procedures,
which shall include the encroachment permit when excavation will be required, the
building permit and the view assessment for facilities that are located within the Public
Ways.
D. The Public Ways within the City are used by and useful to private
enterprises engaged in providing telecommunications services to residents, institutions,
and businesses located in the City.
E. The right to occupy portions of the Public Ways upon City-owned
infrastructure for limited times, for the business of providing telecommunications
services, is a valuable economic privilege, the economic benefit of which should be
shared with all taxpayers of the City.
1
411)
F. Beneficial competition between providers of communications services can
be furthered by the City's provision of grants of location and rights to use the Public
Ways on nondiscriminatory and competitively neutral terms and conditions.
G. NextG is willing to compensate the City in exchange for a grant of location
and the right to use and physically occupy portions of the Public Way.
H. On July 5, 2011, NextG and the City entered into a temporary
Memorandum of Understanding, which is to be effective for a maximum period of one
year, to allow an installation on a City-owned streetlight pole that is located on Palos
Verdes Drive South. At the end of the one-year term of that agreement, the installation
at that location shall become subject to this Agreement.

3. SCOPE OF USE AGREEMENT. All rights expressly granted to NextG under this
Agreement, which will be exercised at NextG's sole cost and expense, are subject to
the prior and continuing right of the City under applicable laws to use all parts of the
Public Way exclusively or concurrently with any other person or entity and are further
subject to all deeds, easements, dedications, conditions, covenants, restrictions,
encumbrances, and claims of title of record that may affect the Public Way. Nothing in

property interest in land, including any fee, leasehold interest, or easement. All work
performed pursuant to the rights granted by this Agreement is subject to the prior review
and approval of the City in accordance with its Customary Permitting Procedures.
3.1 Attachment to Municipal Facilities. Subject to the terms of this
Agreement and the issuance of all required permits and approvals, the City authorizes
NextG to enter upon the Public Way and to locate, place, attach, install, operate,
maintain, control, remove, reattach, reinstall, relocate, and replace Equipment described
generally in Exhibit A in or on Municipal Facilities and locations described in Exhibit B
for the purposes of operating the Network and providing Services, at NextG's expense.
NextG shall have the right to draw compatible electricity for the operation of Equipment
from the non-metered power source associated with the Municipal Facilities where the
City has not approved a meter so long as: (i) it obtains separate approval from Southern
California Edison to install an unmetered Wireless Tariff Rate (WTR)fuse and
disconnect switch and install such equipment; (ii) the Equipment is installed in
compliance with all applicable codes and standards; and (uI) NextG neither damages
nor interferes in the operation of the Municipal Facilities. City makes no guarantees or
4
•
representations as to the suitability or compatibility of any source or supply of electrical
current necessary to operate the Equipment.
In addition, City may authorize NextG to use City-owned conduit for the
purposes of operating the Network and providing Services, if such conduit becomes
available and such use is authorized by NextG's certificate of public convenience and
necessity.
3.2 Amendment to Agreement. This Agreement may be amended from time
to time to allow NextG to add additional facilities to additional City owned street lights
and signal poles subject to the all the same terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Such installations shall be subject to the review and approval of the Director without
further review by the City Council, if the Director approves the installation and the
proposed additional facilities comply with this Agreement and the Laws that are in effect
at the time the installation of the Equipment is approved by the Director. In all other
cases, an amendment to this Agreement must be approved by the City Council.
3.3 Attachment to Third-Party Property. Subject to obtaining written
permission from the owner of the affected property and obtaining approval from the
Director of each installation pursuant to the City's Customary Permitting Process, City
authorizes NextG to enter upon the Public Way and to attach, install, operate, maintain,
remove, reattach, reinstall, relocate, and replace such items of Equipment in or on poles
or other structures owned by public utility companies or others located within the Public
Way as may be permitted by the public utility company or other facility owner. NextG
must furnish to the City documentation of that permission from the individual utility or
facility owner. The denial of an application for the attachment of Equipment to third-
party-owned poles or structures in the Public Way will not be based upon the size,
quantity, shape, color, weight, configuration, or other physical properties of NextG's
Equipment if the Equipment identified in that application substantially conforms to one of
the pre-approved configurations and the Equipment specifications set forth in Exhibit A,
unless it causes a significant view impairment from a residential property in the City as
determined by the City's view assessment process.
3.4 Preference for Municipal Facilities. In any circumstances where NextG
has a choice of attaching its Equipment to either Municipal Facilities or to third-party-
owned property in the Public Way, NextG agrees to attach to the Municipal Facilities,
provided that (i) those Municipal Facilities are at least equally suitable functionally for
the operation of the Network, and (ii) the rental fee and installation costs associated with
that attachment over the length of the term are equal to or less than the fee or cost to
NextG of attaching to the alternative third-party-owned property.
3.5 No Interference. This Agreement shall not convey any property interest
to NextG nor shall NextG claim under this Agreement any property interest in the City's
facilities or Public Ways. NextG further acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement
does not create a landlord-tenant relationship and NextG is not entitled to avail itself of
any rights afforded to tenants under the laws of the State of California. NextG's use of
5
•
the public right-of-way under the Agreement shall not give rise to any vested right.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as granting NextG a franchise. Any and
all rights granted to NextG by and through this Agreement are subject and subordinate
to the continuing right of the City and its agents to use all of the public-right-of way in
the performance of their duties, functions, and operations, which include but are not
limited to laying, installing, maintaining, protecting, replacing, and removing, traffic
signals, street lights, sanitary sewers, water mans, storm drains, gas mains, poles,
overhead and underground electric lines, telephone lines, cable television lines, and
other utility and municipal uses, together with appurtenance thereof and with right of
ingress and egress, along, over, across, and in the public right-of-way. NextG shall
have the duty to remove, relocate, and rearrange its Equipment in accordance with the
reasonable and necessary requirements of the City and the terms of this Agreement.
Furthermore, in the performance and exercise of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement, NextG must not interfere in any manner with the existence and operation of
any public or private rights-of-way, sanitary sewers, water mains, storm drains, gas
mains, poles, aerial and underground electrical and telephone wires, electroliers, cable
television and telecommunications facilities, utilities, or municipal property, without the
express written approval of the owner or owners of the affected property or properties,
except as authorized by applicable laws or this Agreement.
3.6 Compliance with Laws. NextG will comply with all applicable laws in the
exercise of its rights and the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. In
particular, NextG will comply with the Laws that are in effect at the time a particular
installation of Equipment is approved by the Director.
3.7 No Authorization to Provide Other Services. NextG represents that its
Equipment installed pursuant to this Agreement will be used solely for the purpose of
providing the Services identified herein and that NextG will not use its Equipment to
offer or provide any other services except for those services referenced in Subsection
4.5. NextG's failure to comply with these limitations will constitute a material breach of
this Agreement and City, after providing written notice to NextG, may levy monetary
penalties in an amount not to exceed $1,000 per day from the date of noncompliance
until the breach is cured.
4. COMPENSATION; UTILITY CHARGES. NextG is solely responsible for the
payment of all lawful fees in connection with NextG's performance under this
Agreement, including those set forth below.
4.1 Annual Fee. In order to compensate City for NextG's entry upon and
deployment within the Public Way, and as compensation for the use of Municipal
Facilities, NextG will pay to the City an annual fee (collectively the "Aggregate Annual
Fee") that consists of the following:
(i) A fee (the "Pole Fee") in the amount of Five Hundred Dollars ($500)
for the use of each City-owned streetlight or traffic-signal pole, if any, upon which
NextG's Equipment has been installed pursuant to this Agreement; and
6
r 1
•
(ii) A fee (the "Conduit Fee"), in an amount equivalent to that charged
by cities of similar size, per foot per annum for City-owned conduit, if any, that the City
permits NextG to use hereunder.
The Aggregate Annual Fee to be paid with respect to each year of the
term will be an amount equal to (i) the number of Equipment installations made on
Municipal Facilities, or that continue to remain on Municipal Facilities, during the
preceding 12 months multiplied by the annual Pole Fee, prorated as appropriate; and (ii)
the annual Conduit Fee multiplied by the number of City-owned conduit feet used by
NextG during the preceding 12 months, prorated as appropriate. The Aggregate Annual
Fee is due and payable not later than 45 days after each anniversary of the Installation
Date. City represents that City owns all Municipal Facilities for the use of which it is
collecting from NextG the Aggregate Annual Fee pursuant to this Section 4.1.
4.2 CPI Adjustment. Commencing on the fifth anniversary of the Installation
Date and continuing on each fifth anniversary thereafter during the term, the fees for
each component of the Aggregate Annual Fee for the ensuing five-year period will be
adjusted by a percentage amount equal to the percentage change in the U.S.
Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index (All Items, All
Consumers, 1982 1984=100)that occurred during the previous five-year period for the
Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County Metropolitan Statistical Area.
4.3 Right-of-Way Use Fee. To further compensate City for NextG's entry
upon and deployment of Equipment within the Public Way, NextG will pay to City, on an
annual basis, an amount equal to five percent (5%) of Adjusted Gross Revenues (the
"Right-of-Way Fee"). NextG must make payment of the Right-of-Way Fee that is due
and owing within 45 days after the first anniversary of the Effective Date and within the
same period after each subsequent anniversary of the Effective Date. Within 45 days
after the termination of this Agreement, the Right-of-Way Fee will be paid for the period
elapsing since the end of the last anniversary date for which the Right-of-Way Fee has
been paid. NextG will furnish to City with each payment of the Right-of-Way Fee a
statement, executed by an authorized officer of NextG, showing the amount of Adjusted
Gross Revenues for the period covered by the payment. If NextG discovers any error in
the amount of compensation due, the City will be paid within 30 days of discovery of the
error or determination of the correct amount. Any overpayment to the City through error
or otherwise will be offset against the next payment due. Acceptance by City of any
payment of the Right-of-Way Fee will not be deemed a waiver by City of any breach of
this Agreement occurring prior thereto, nor will the acceptance by City of any such
payment preclude City from later establishing that a greater amount was actually due or
from collecting any balance that is due.
4.4 Accounting Matters. NextG will maintain accurate books of account at
its principal office in Milpitas, or another location of its choosing, for the purpose of
determining the amounts due to City under Sections 4.1 and 4.2 above. City, or a
consultant acting on behalf of City, may inspect NextG's books of account relative to
City at any time during regular business hours on 10 business days' prior written notice
7
and may audit the books from time to time, but in each case only to the extent
necessary to confirm the accuracy of payments due under Sections 4.1 and 4.2 above.
The City agrees to hold in confidence any non-public information it obtains from NextG
to the maximum extent permitted by law.
4.5 Services to City. NextG will at all times during the term of this
Agreement reserve one wavelength of capacity in the fiber owned or operated by NextG
in the City for the City's exclusive use in operating a noncommercial, City-owned Wi-Fi
network, or for any other City-operated noncommercial data network or communications
system.
4.6 Electricity Charges. NextG is solely responsible for the payment to the
utility service provider of all electrical utility charges that are attributable to the
Equipment's usage of electricity.
4.7 Delinquent Payment. If NextG fails to pay any amounts due under this
Section 4 within 30 days from the specified due date, NextG must pay, in addition to the
unpaid fees, a sum of money equal to one percent (1°/o) of the amount due for each
month or fraction thereof during which the payment is due and unpaid.
4.8 Most-Favored-Municipality Status. The parties anticipate that, following
the effective date of this Agreement, NextG will enter into similar right-of-way use
agreements with other municipalities. If NextG enters into a similar agreement with
another municipality in the Los Angeles Metropolitan Statistical Area, which municipality
has a population that is the same or smaller than that of the City, then the parties will
modify this Agreement if the following conditions are met:
(i) The right-of-way use agreement confers financial benefits upon the
municipality that, taken as a whole and balanced with other terms of that agreement,
are deemed by the City to be substantially superior to the financial benefits provided for
in this Agreement; and
(ii) City notifies NextG of its desire to modify this Agreement to
substitute the same or substantially similar financial benefits, and related terms and
conditions, of that right-of-way use agreement in order to achieve parity. To the extent
practicable, such modification will be retroactive to the effective date of the similar right-
of-way use agreement with the comparable municipality.
Concurrently with NextG's annual payment of the right-of-way use fee
provided for in Subsection 4.3, NextG will provide to the City a list of right-of-way use
agreements that have been executed with municipalities within the Los Angeles
Metropolitan Statistical Area during the preceding 12-month period.
5. CONSTRUCTION. NextG must comply with all applicable federal, state, and
City technical specifications and requirements and all applicable state and local codes
and rules related to the construction, installation, operation, maintenance, and control of
NextG's Equipment installed in the Public Way and on Municipal Facilities in the City.
8
• •
NextG may not attach, install, maintain, or operate any Equipment in or on the Public
Way or on Municipal Facilities without the City's prior written approval for each location.
5.1 Obtaining Required Permits. All work performed pursuant to the rights
granted in this Agreement is subject to the prior review and approval of the City in
accordance with its Customary Permitting Procedures. NextG shall obtain all required
permits and approvals, including, without limitation, those listed below. NextG shall pay
any and all reasonable permit and inspection fees prior to performing any work in the
Public Ways. City will process NextG's applications for permits and will otherwise
cooperate with NextG in facilitating the deployment of the Network in the Public Way in
a reasonable and timely manner.
(a) Encroachment Permits. Applicant shall obtain
encroachment permits from the City for the installation of the DAS Facilities and for any
other work within the public right-of-way as required by the Rancho Palos Verdes
Municipal Code (the "Code").
(b) Facilities shall be installed in a manner that will not cause a
significant impairment of a view from the viewing area of a residential property located
within the City, as those terms are defined in Section 17.02.040 of the Code. To that
end, NextG shall construct a mockup of the Facility at the proposed location so that its
potential effect on views can be evaluated by the Director. If a proposed Facility causes
a significant impairment of a view from a residential property that cannot be eliminated
at the particular location, the Director may require the Facility to be moved to a different
location. However, if NextG demonstrates to the Director's satisfaction that the
relocation of the Facility will cause a significant gap in NextG's service coverage or
preclude NextG from providing wireless service to its customers, then the Facility shall
be approved at the location requested by NextG.
(c) Building Permits. Applicant must obtain any necessary
building permits by application to the Building & Safety Department pursuant to the
City's Municipal Code and shall pay all reasonable processing, engineering and
inspection fees in connection with such building permits in accordance with the rates in
effect at the time of payment. All such work shall be completed in accordance with the
requirements of the Code, this Agreement, the applicable encroachment permit and the
City's standard specifications.
(d) Compliance with Permits. All work within the public right-of-
way shall be performed in strict compliance with the applicable Permits and all
applicable regulatory requirements. Applicant shall promptly submit to the City accurate
as-built plans and record drawings certified by a professional engineer showing in detail,
the location, depth, and size of all of NextG facilities in the public right-of-way subject to
this Agreement within sixty (60) days of completion of any additions or alterations to the
DAS Facilities. Such plans shall be submitted in the form and with the detail required by
the Director of Public Works. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit the
City from establishing additional conditions on any approval of Applicant's permits, nor
9
•
exempt Applicant from any generally applicable annual registration requirement the City
might impose.
(e) Coordination of Excavation with Other Permittees. At least
thirty (30) days prior to commencing excavation work in the public right-of-way pursuant
to this Agreement, NextG shall notify in writing, on a form approved by the City, other
existing or potential right-of-way users ("Users") shown on the list of users maintained
by the City. The notice shall describe the work to be performed, the specific right-of-way
that will be used, and the time when such work will be performed. Each User receiving
such notice shall have thirty (30) days from the date thereof to inform in writing
Applicant and the City that such User desires to perform work jointly with NextG. To the
extent reasonably feasible, and subject to NextG and User entering into a written
agreement for such work and/or use, NextG shall coordinate its work with any User who
timely informs NextG that it desires to perform work jointly in the right-of-way, provided
that such User obtains any required right-of-way agreement and permits from the City
as required by the Code before such User installs any facilities or uses any facilities
installed by Applicant on their behalf. Any work performed by NextG on behalf of
another User must be authorized by an encroachment permit issued by the City.
(f) Membership In Underground Service Alert. Pursuant to
Government Code Section 4216.1, NextG shall become a member of Underground
Service Alert-Southern California.
5.2 Removal and Relocation.
(a) Removal Due to Public Project. Upon receipt of a written demand from
the City, NextG, at its sole expense, shall remove and relocate any Equipment
and related facilities, installed, used and/or maintained by NextG under this
Agreement whenever City reasonably determines that the removal or relocation
is needed for any of the following purposes: (i) due to any work proposed to be
done by or on behalf of the City or other governmental agency, including but not
limited to, any change of grade, alignment or width of any street, sidewalk or
other public facility, installation of curbs, gutters or landscaping and installation,
construction, maintenance or operation of any underground or aboveground
facilities such as sewers, drains, pipes, power lines, and tracks; (ii) because the
Equipment is interfering with or adversely affecting proper operation of City-
owned light poles, traffic signals, or other City facilities; or (iii) to protect or
preserve the public health and safety. NextG shall complete the removal or
relocation within 120 days of receipt of notice from the City. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the City's Director may require a shorter period due to exigent
circumstances and may authorize a longer period if it will not delay the public
project. If NextG fails to remove or relocate the facilities within the prescribed
time period, the City may remove the facilities at the expense of NextG, and
NextG shall promptly reimburse the City any and all reasonable expenses,
including administrative, legal and consultant costs, within 30 days of receiving
an invoice from the City.
10
•
(b) Removal Due to Termination. Upon termination NextG must at its sole
expense, remove the Equipment and all related appurtenances and structures
and restore the public right-of-way to its original condition, reasonable wear and
tear excepted, and further excepting landscaping and related irrigation
equipment, or other aesthetic improvements made by NextG to the right-of-way.
The removal of the Equipment shall also be performed in compliance with the
terms of this Agreement. Any removal work by Applicant shall only be done
pursuant to an encroachment permit.
(c) Undergrounding. NextG and the City recognize that current technology
may not reasonably permit undergrounding of all components of the Equipment.
NextG acknowledges and agrees that the City prefers to underground facilities in
the right-of-way when economically and technically feasible. At least 30 days
prior to each anniversary of the Effective Date, City may demand NextG
underground additional components of its Equipment. Within 180 days of the
receipt of a written demand from the City, NextG shall replace the identified
aboveground facilities with underground facilities if economically and technically
feasible and shall do so in accordance with all applicable laws. The burden will
be on NextG to prove that such undergrounding is not economically and
technically feasible.
(d) Abandonment. In the event the Equipment, or any part thereof, is
abandoned for a period of 90 days or more, NextG must, at its sole expense,
promptly vacate and remove the Equipment and all related appurtenances and
structures or the abandoned part thereof. NextG must also, at its sole expense,
restore the right-of-way to its original condition, reasonable wear and tear
excepted, and further excepting landscaping and related irrigation equipment, or
other aesthetic improvements made by NextG to the right-of-way. Alternatively,
the City may allow NextG, in the City's sole and absolute discretion, to abandon
the Equipment, or any part thereof, in place and convey it to the City. If NextG
fails to remove the Equipment as required by the City pursuant to this paragraph
and the Code within 120 days after receipt of written notice from the City, the City
may, in its sole and absolute discretion: (i) remove the Equipment at NextG's
sole expense, which expense NextG shall promptly reimburse to the City within
30 days of receiving an invoice for such expenses, including all reasonable
administrative, legal and consultant costs; or (ii) deem the Equipment, or any part
thereof, to have been abandoned and conveyed to the City.
5.3 Repair of Rights-of-Way. NextG shall be responsible for any damage,
ordinary wear and tear excepted, to street pavement, existing facilities and utilities,
curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and all other public or private facilities due to NextG's
construction, installation, maintenance, access, repair, relocation, or removal of the
Equipment. NextG must promptly repair such damage and return the public rights-of-
way and adjacent property to a safe and satisfactory condition to the City in accordance
with the City's street restoration standards. If NextG fails to do so, the City shall have
the option upon thirty 30 days prior written notice to NextG to perform such work at
11
• •
NextG's sole expense. If the City determines that the damage presents an immediate
threat to the public health or safety, it may perform such work at NextG's sole expense
without prior notice to NextG. In the event of such an emergency, as soon as
practicable thereafter and not later than forty-eight (48) hours after having taken such
action, City will advise NextG in writing of the emergency work performed or the action
taken with respect to any emergency modification or alteration. When the City
undertakes pursuant to this Section to repair any damage, NextG shall promptly
reimburse to the City within 30 days after receiving an invoice for such reasonable
expenses, including all administrative, legal and consultant costs. NextG's obligations
under this paragraph shall survive for 3 years past the expiration or earlier termination
of this Agreement.
6. INDEMNIFICATION AND WAIVER. NextG will indemnify, defend, protect, and
hold harmless the City, its councilmembers, officers, employees, agents, and
contractors, from and against liability, claims, demands, losses, damages, fines,
charges, penalties, administrative and judicial proceedings and orders, judgments, and
all costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys'
fees and costs of defense (collectively, the "Losses") directly or proximately resulting
from NextG's activities undertaken pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent
arising from or caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the City, its
councilmembers, officers, employees, agents, or contractors. City will indemnify,
defend, protect, and hold harmless NextG, its officers, employees, agents, and
contractors, from and against liability, claims, demands, losses, damages, fines,

(d) That NextG's Commercial General Liability insurance policy
waives any right of recovery the insurance company may have against the City.
The certificates of insurance with endorsements and notices must be
mailed to the City at the address specified below in Section 9.

all times during the term of this Agreement statutory workers' compensation and

Insurance policies and certificates issued by non-admitted insurance companies are not
acceptable.
7.4 Severability of Interest. All deductibles or self-insured retentions must

and maintained by NextG under this Agreement shall not limit in any way NextG's
indemnification obligations under Section 5 of this Agreement.

independent contractors or agents ("Secondary Parties")to locate, place, attach, install,
operate, use, control, repair or maintain the Equipment, NextG shall require such
Secondary Parties to obtain and maintain the insurance required by this Section 7 and
14

comply with all of the insurance provisions of such Section. It shall be NextG
responsibility to ensure compliance with this Section 7.7.
8. FAITHFUL PERFORMANCE BOND. In order to secure the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement, NextG will provide the following security instrument to
the City:
8.1 Faithful Performance Bond. Prior to the commencement of any work
under this Agreement, NextG must provide a faithful performance bond running to the
City, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B, in the penal sum of not less than
Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500) for each Municipal Facility upon which
Equipment is to be installed pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement, conditioned upon
the faithful performance by NextG of all the terms and conditions of this Agreement and
upon the further condition that if NextG fails to comply with any law, ordinance, rule, or
regulation governing this Agreement, there shall be recoverable jointly and severally
from the principal and surety of the bond any damage or loss suffered by the City as a
result, including the full amount of any compensation, indemnification, or costs of
removal or abandonment of NextG's property, plus costs and reasonable attorneys' fees
up to the full amount of the faithful performance bond. The City may require NextG to
increase the amount of the faithful performance bond if the City concludes that it is
necessary to do so based upon the harm being caused by NextG to Public Ways or
Municipal Facilities. NextG will keep the faithful performance bond in place during the
term of this Agreement.
8.2 Assessment of the Bond. Upon NextG's failure to pay the City any
amount owing under this Agreement, the faithful performance bond may be assessed
by the City for purposes including, but not limited to:
(a) Reimbursement of costs borne by the City to correct
violations of the Agreement not corrected by NextG, after City provides notice and a
reasonable opportunity to cure such violations.
(b) To provide monetary remedies or to satisfy damages
assessed against NextG due to a material breach of this Agreement.
8.3 Restoration of the Bond. NextG must deposit a sum of money or a
replacement instrument sufficient to restore the faithful performance bond to its original
amount within 30 days after notice from the City that any amount has been recovered
from the faithful performance bond. Failure to restore the bond to its full amount within
30 days will constitute a material breach of this Agreement. NextG will be relieved of
the foregoing requirement to replenish the bond during the pendency of an appeal from
the City's decision to draw on the faithful performance bond.
8.4 Costs of Collection. If the faithful performance bond is drawn upon, all of
City's costs of collection and enforcement of the provisions relating to the bond that are
15
. , .
0 I
specified in this section, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, will be paid by
N extG.
8.5 Required Endorsement. The faithful performance bond is subject to the
approval of the City Attorney and must contain the following endorsement:
"This bond may not be canceled until sixty(60) days after receipt by the
City Attorney, by registered mail, return receipt requested, of a written
notice of intent to cancel or not to renew."
8.6 Reservation of City Rights. The rights reserved by the City with respect
to the faithful performance bond are in addition to all other rights and remedies the City
may have under this Agreement or any other law.

agents, transferees, contractors or subcontractors shall cause, permit any Hazardous
Substances to be used, stored, or generated, on or in the Municipal Facility, the public

invitees without first obtaining City's written consent. In no event shall NextG ever use
the Premises to dispose of any Hazardous Substance or any Solid Waste (as defined
by 42 U.S.C. Section 6903(27).
9.3 Indemnification. If NextG or NextG's employees, officers, officials,
agents, transferees, contractors, or subcontractors cause, permit, or allow Hazardous
Substances to be used, stored, or generated, on or in the Municipal Facility, the public
right-of-way, or any City property except as permitted above, then NextG shall defend,

and agents)from any and all claims, damages, fines, judgments, penalties, costs,
liabilities, or losses (including, without limitation, a decrease in value of the Municipal

contamination. This duty to defend and indemnification includes, without limitation, any
and all costs incurred because of any investigation of the site or any cleanup, removal,
or restoration mandated by a federal, state, or local agency or political subdivision.

Hazardous Substance on the Premises which results in contamination of the soil, soil
vapors, or groundwater beneath the Premises, then NextG shall promptly, at NextG's
sole expense, take any and all necessary actions to return the Premises to the condition

this paragraph shall be in addition to any other obligations and liabilities NextG may
have to City at law or equity and shall survive the expiration or the termination of this
Agreement. In the event that the City notifies NextG of potential liability under this
Section, NextG shall respond in writing to such a notification within 10 working days. If
NextG does not so respond and unequivocally accept the duty to defend and indemnify
the City without reservation, then City shall have the right to retain independent legal
counsel within its sole discretion and NextG shall be responsible for all reasonable fees
and costs, including attorneys' fees, of any such counsel selected by the City.
