See EXHIBIT A attached hereto and made a part hereof. 
 
The parties agree as follows:

but not limited to, equipment, electronics, security and automation systems, cabling, wiring and other needed equipment 
(“Facilities") in the Vault Easement Area to provide voice, video, and data services,  and any other service now or hereafter 
offered by Cox and/or its affiliates (collectively, "Services") to APS at the Property and to utilize the Vault Easement Area, on 
a non-exclusive basis, for the transmission of Services to APS and to install and maintain appropriate facilities for such Services 
to APS. Owner further grants to Cox the non-exclusive right to enter the Property including all common areas to install, connect,

which event Cox shall have the right to enter the Property outside of normal business hours. Owner also grants Cox (i) the 
right to use any available conduit space which is now, or hereafter, located on, under or over the Vault Easement Area, for the

right of way or Cox’s Facilities located outside of the Property. Owner hereby approves of the construction and installation of 
the Facilities in accordance with the plans on EXHIBIT B attached hereto. If Owner requests, in writing within ninety (90) days 
after the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, Cox shall remove the Facilities (excluding “Internal Wiring” 
(defined below) and any underground Facilities) within sixty (60) days after receipt of Owner’s request. Otherwise, Cox have 
shall have the right to enter upon the Property and remove any portion or all of the Facilities and such right shall survive the 
expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. At Cox’s option, wiring and cabling may remain in the Vault Easement Area. 
The Facilities are and shall remain the sole and exclusive property of Cox and shall not become fixtures of the Property, except 
for the “Internal Wiring” which is defined as the wiring, ports and outlets located within a commercial unit receiving Services 
back to the demarcation point, and underground Facilities. Owner agrees not to use, move, disturb, or alter the Facilities, or 
interfere with the Services, or knowingly permit any third party to do so.  
 
2. Obligations of Cox. Cox agrees to: (i) pay for all materials and labor reasonably necessary to install the Facilities; (ii) keep 
the Property free of liens resulting from Cox’s installation or removal of the Facilities; (iii) repair any damage to the Property if 
such damage results directly from Cox's installation or removal of the Facilities; (iv) obtain all applicable government permits 
for the installation of the Facilities in the Vault Easement Area at the Property; (v) maintain (a) Commercial General Liability 
insurance with a policy limit of at least $2,000,000 to protect Owner against bodily injury or damage resulting from Cox’s 
negligence or intentional misconduct with respect to the installation, operation or maintenance of the Facilities on the Property 
at all times when Cox is providing Services hereunder, and (b) Worker’s Compensation insurance in statutory amounts. The 
Cox insurance policies hereunder shall be with insurers (i) licensed to do business in the state in which the Property is located 
and (ii) carrying an A.M. Best rating of at least A-VIII. All policies, including any renewals thereof, shall specify that such policy 
cannot be canceled without at least thirty (30) days written notice to Owner. 
 
3. Indemnification. Cox agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Owner harmless from all third party claims, suits, proceedings, 
liabilities, losses, costs, damages, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees (the “Claims”) for personal injury or 
property damages arising out of (a) the negligence or willful misconduct of Cox in connection with Cox’s installation or removal 
of the Facilities in the Vault Easement Area at the Property; or (b) Cox’s breach of this Agreement beyond any applicable notice 
and cure periods. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE HEREUNDER FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR 
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, ARISING FROM THIS AGREEMENT OR PROVISION OF THE 
SERVICES.  
 
4. Term. The “Term” shall begin upon the date of execution by the last signing party hereunder, and continue for five (5) years 
from the first day of the first full calendar month thereafter. The Term of this Agreement shall automatically renew for 
consecutive one (1) year terms (each successive year being a “Renewal Term”), provided that Cox is still providing Services 
to APS at the Property. Owner may terminate this Agreement with at least ninety (90) days prior written notice. Cox may

2 
terminate this Agreement (i) in the event Cox is unable to continue the distribution of any Services because of any law, rule, 
regulation or judgment of any court (or any similar reason beyond the reasonable control of Cox), (ii) if the applicable franchise 
or licenses are assigned, terminated, surrendered or revoked for any reason, or (iii) in the event that Cox elects to no longer 
provide Services to APS at the Property.  
 
5. Default. If either party fails to perform any material condition or agreement to be performed or observed by it hereunder and 
such default is not cured within thirty (30) days after the defaulting party’s receipt of written notice from the non-defaulting party, 
the non-defaulting party may immediately terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the defaulting party. 
 
6. Miscellaneous.  This Agreement is the entire understanding between the parties and supersedes any prior agreements or 
understandings whether oral or written. This Agreement may not be amended except by a written instrument executed by both 
parties. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the state where the Property is located. Owner acknowledges that (i) this 
Agreement and Cox's rights granted herein shall be binding upon Owner's successors and assigns, and (ii) Owner shall notify 
any successor Property owner of Cox’s right under this Agreement and provide such party a copy hereof. Each party has the 
full right and authority to execute this Agreement and grant the rights and/or accept the obligations contained herein. Owner 
represents that there are no prior or existing agreements, nor will there be any agreements during the Term, that would be 
breached by Owner’s execution of this Agreement or by Cox's provision of the Services. Cox may assign this Agreement 
without consent, in whole or part, to (i) to any affiliate of Cox; (ii) any entity merging with, or acquiring substantially all of the 
assets of, Cox or (iii) any services provider that provides Services to APS. Unless otherwise required by applicable law or by 
a court order from a court with competent jurisdiction, Owner shall, at all times, keep the terms and conditions of this Agreement 
strictly confidential (it being agreed that such terms and conditions may be disclosed to Owner’s directors and officers, as well 
as Owner’s legal counsel and accountants who need to know such information for the purpose of compliance); and shall not 
disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement to any person other than as permitted hereinabove. Notices required to 
be given shall be sent by U.S. Certified Mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or national overnight courier to the 
address set forth below. Cox shall determine the appropriate date to begin construction and/or installation of the Facilities in 
the Vault Easement Area at the Property and the commencement of the provision of Services to APS. Owner shall have no 
responsibility for the Services provided by Cox, or for the proper functioning of the Facilities. In the event of bankruptcy of APS 
or Owner, or in the event of a Service disconnection order from APS to Cox, Cox shall have the right to enter upon the Property 
to recover the Facilities. This Agreement is subject to A.R.S. § 38-511 and Arizona Executive Order 2009-09, which executive 
order is incorporated herein by reference as if set forth in full herein. 
 
7. Authorization From APS. APS by signing the authorization below acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement does not 
conflict with the UTILITY EASEMENT INCLUDING VAULTS attached hereto as EXHIBIT C and which was electronically 
recorded on August 17, 2023 as instrument number 20230430729 in the Official Records of the Maricopa County Recorder
