communications and related equipment on the Property or to the current or equivalent
replacement communications and related equipment on the Property owned and operated
by other City lessees, licensees, tenants, or invitees currently on the Property, provided

on the Property. Such notice shall include technical information from the party proposing
such installation sufficient for MERA to determine whether the installation will interfere
with MERA's operation. MERA shall advise the City within ten (10) business days of
receipt of such notice whether, in MERA's reasonable determination, the proposed use
will cause any interference with the MERA Communication Facilities. In the event
interference from any such new installation occurs, the City agrees to take reasonable
steps to eliminate such interference in a reasonable time period.
18. Damage or Destruction.

MERA shall, at its sole cost and expense, repair, restore or rebuild the same in
accordance with its condition prior to such damage or destruction or in accordance with
any plans and specifications first approved in writing by the City after receiving all
necessary third party approvals. In the event MERA determines it is commercially
infeasible to repair the MERA Communications Facilities, it may elect to terminate this
Agreement upon providing the City thirty (30) days advance written notice of its
intention to do so.
In the event MERA elects to repair such damage or destruction, MERA shall take
all reasonable steps to obtain necessary permits and approvals within a reasonable time.
Work shall commence within thirty (30) days after all permits and approvals are obtained
and shall be completed with due diligence. All insurance proceeds collected for such
damage or destruction shall be applied to the costs of such repairs and if such insurance
proceeds shall be insufficient for such purposes, MERA shall make up the deficiency out
of its funds. The failure or refusal of MERA to make the repairs or provide notice of its
intention to terminate this Agreement as provided for herein shall constitute a default
under the covenants and conditions of this Agreement and the City may at its option
terminate this Agreement. In the event of any damage or destruction from any cause other
10
than the City's negligence or willful misconduct, MERA shall not be entitled to
compensation, damages or rebate in rent for loss of use of the MERA Communications
Facilities.

non-binding conference or conferences between the parties and the judge -mediator
jointly, then in separate caucuses wherein the judge will seek to guide the parties to a
resolution of the case. The mediation process shall continue until the case is resolved or
until such time as the mediator makes a finding that there is no possibility of resolution.

Agreement.

for herein by either party, MERA shall remove all improvements constructed, erected or
placed by MERA on the License Space at its sole cost and restore the License Space and
the Property to its original condition existing as of the Commencement Date save and
except normal wear and tear.
24. Condemnation.
If a condemning authority takes all of the City's property or a portion sufficient to
render the License Space unsuitable for MERA's use, MERA may terminate the License
as of the date when possession is delivered to the condemning authority. In any
condemnation proceeding MERA shall be entitled to make a claim against the
condemning authority for just compensation including the value of MERA's
Communications Facility if not removed, moving expenses, prepaid rent, business
dislocation expenses, bonus value of this Agreement and any other amounts recoverable

facilitate the reasonable co -location of such equipment (or equivalent replacement
equipment) on the Communication Facilities located in the License Space, including the
co -location of antennas on MERA's tower, subject to the City or the other parties
