Chandler City Council, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any license that is assigned or
otherwise transferred pursuant to this Section must be equally subject to all the obligations and privileges of this
License including any amendments, which will remain in effect, as if the assigned License was the original License.
8.2
No Lease Without Consent.
The License must not be sublet or assigned, nor must any of the related
rights or privileges be leased, assigned, sold, or transferred, either in whole or in part, nor must title, either legal or
equitable, or any right, or property interest pass to or vest in any person other than Licensee, by act of the Licensee or

instrument transferring conditional ownership of all or part of Licensee’s assets to a lender or creditor in the ordinary
course of business, In the event a lender assumes control of the assets and operation of Licensee, the lender may

City Council that may not be unreasonably denied or withheld. A “Lender’ for the purposes of this License does not
include a Licensee, person, or corporation, or other entities that operate cable television systems or fiber optics

use of lending and/or foreclosure as a method for effecting change of control or transfer of the License without City
Council review and approval.
8.6
Assignee Warranty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior consent will not be required for transfer to any
company which owns or controls, is owned or controlled by, or under common control with the Licensee, provided that,

exercised; and
8.6.3 The transfer will not substantially diminish the financial resources available to the Licensee.
8.7

date the notice is deemed received from the City as provided in Section 14.16.
10.1.2 Licensee engages in a pattern of repeated failure (or neglect) to timely perform or observe any

10.3
City’s Remedies for Material Breach. Upon the occurrence of any material breach or at any time
thereafter, City may, at its option, exercise at Licensee’s expense any or all or any combination of the following
cumulative remedies in any order and repetitively at City’s option: (i) revoke any or all license agreements and
permits due to Licensees breach as provided in Section 12. The City’s revocation does not terminate Licensee’s
obligations arising during the time simultaneous with or prior to the revocation, and in no way terminates any of
Licensee’s liability related to any breach of this License; (N) pay or perform, for Licensee’s account, in Licensee’s
name, and at Licensee’s expense, any or all payments or performances required to be paid or performed by
Licensee (Ni) abate at Licensee’s expense any violation of this License; (iv) Notwithstanding anything under this
License to the contrary, unilaterally and without Licensee’s or any other person’s consent or approval, draw upon,
withdraw or otherwise realize upon or obtain the value of any letter of credit, escrowed funds, insurance policies,
or other deposits, sureties, bonds, or other funds or security held by City or pledged or otherwise obligated to City
by Licensee or by any third party (whether or not specifically mentioned herein) and use the proceeds for any
remedy permitted by this License; (v) Require an additional security deposit adequate in City’s sole discretion to
protect the Public Rights-of-Way: (vi) Assert, exercise, or otherwise pursue at Licensee’s expense any and all
other rights or remedies, legal or equitable, to which City may be entitled, subject only to the limitation set out
below on City’s ability to collect money damages in light of the Violation Use Fee; (vii) Impose civil sanctions for
public safety violations as provided in this License.
10.4
Violation Use Fee.
In lieu of certain money damages (the “Inconvenience Costs”) set out below, the
following use fees apply to Licensee’s material breach of specific terms of this License (the “Violation Fee
Provisions): (i) The Inconvenience Costs are the money damages that City suffers in the form of administrative
cost and inconvenience, disharmony among competing users, and general inconvenience in the use of Public
Rights-of-Way by City, competing users, and the public when Licensee fails to comply with the Violation Fee
Provisions; and (N) Licensee’s failure to comply with Violation Fee Provisions will result in Inconvenience Costs in
an amount that is and will be impracticable to determine. Therefore, the Parties have agreed that, in lieu of
Licensee paying to City as damages the actual amount of the Inconvenience Costs for violating the Violation Fee
Provisions, Licensee must pay the following Violation Use Fees. The City may elect to draw upon the letter of
credit to collect the Violation Use Fee. For continuing violations within a 24-hour period, each calendar day is
considered a separate period for purposes of recovery of violation use fees. The Violation Fee Provisions and the
amount of the Violation Use Fee per day or part thereof are as follows:
Use
r
Violation Use Fee Description
day
$600
Licensee’s failure to properly restore the public right-of-way within ten days after notice, or
timely perform work within ten days after notice, or to correct related violations of
specifications, code, ordinance, or standards within ten days after notice, or six or more
breaches by Licensee within twelve consecutive months.
$500
Three or more material breaches by Licensee within 90 consecutive days
$250
Licensee’s failure to make Licensee’s books and records available as required by this License
within ten days of such request or one or more material breaches by Licensee within 30
consecutive days.
A Violation Use Fee is only intended to remedy inconvenience costs that City suffers because of Licensee’s
breach of the Violation Fee Provisions. Licensee’s payment of Violation Use Fee does not in any way excuse any
breach by Licensee of this License or limit in any way Licensee’s obtaining any other legal or equitable remedy
provided by this License or otherwise for such breach. For example, Licensee’s obligation to pay Violation Use
Fee does not in any way satisfy Licensee’s indemnity and insurance obligations under this License, which apply
according to their terms in addition to Licensee’s obligation to pay Violation Use Fee.
10.5
Enforcement of Violation Use Fees; Apoeal. The City Manager or designee is authorized to issue notices
of violation of this License and may take those measures necessary to promote, preserve, and protect public
health, safety, and welfare within the Public Rights-of-Way and City-owned property through Violation Use Fees.
Final TCA Telecom License version 3 Dated 7-26-2022
16

The City Manager will issue a warning for the first violation by a Licensee under this section. The City Manager or
designee will issue notice to the Licensee as listed in Section 14.16. If City determines that Licensee is liable for
Violation Use Fee, the City will issue to Licensee a notice of City’s assessment of a Violation Use Fee to Licensee
as provided in Section 14.16. The notice will set forth the nature of the violation and the amount of the
assessment. Licensee must pay the Violation Use Fee within ten days of the date of the City’s notice or may
appeal the notice of violation as provided in Chandler City Code § 1-7.
10.6
Public Safety Violations; Civil Sanctions. In addition to imposing a Violation Use Fee, the City
Manager/Designee is authorized to issue notices of violation of this License, prosecute such violations as
provided in Chandler City Code sec.1 -B, and may take those measures necessary to promote, preserve, and
protect public health, safety, and welfare within the Public Rights-of-Way and City-owned property. The City
Manager/Designee will issue a warning for the first violation by a Licensee under this section. The City
Manager/Designee will issue notice to the Licensee as listed in Section 14.16.
10.7
Failure to Pay Civil Sanction. Failure of a party to pay a civil sanction upon final adjudication of the civil
action as provided by law may result in the automatic termination of this License and any such party may be
prohibited from obtaining additional licenses or permits until all outstanding civil sanctions have been dismissed or
paid in full.
10.8
Non-waiver. Licensee acknowledges Licensee’s unconditional obligation to comply with this License. No
failure by City to demand any performance required of Licensee under this License, and no acceptance by City of
any imperfect or partial performances under this License, will excuse such performance or impair in any way
City’s ability to insist, prospectively and retroactively, upon full compliance with these terms and conditions. No
acceptance by City of Use Fee payments or other performances hereunder will be deemed a compromise or
settlement of any right City may have for additional, different, or further payments or performances as provided for
in these terms and conditions. Any waiver by City of any breach of condition or covenant herein contained to be
kept and performed by Licensee will not be deemed or considered as a continuing waiver and will not operate to
bar or otherwise prevent City from declaring a default for any breach or succeeding or continuing breach either of
the same condition or covenant or otherwise. No statement, bill, or notice by City or Licensee concerning
payments or other performances due hereunder, or failure by City to demand any performance hereunder, will
excuse Licensee from compliance with its obligations nor estop City (or otherwise impair City’s ability) to, at any
time, correct such notice and/or insist prospectively and retroactively upon full compliance with this License. No
waiver of any description (including any waiver of this sentence or paragraph) will be effective against City unless
made in writing by a duly authorized representative of City specifically identifying the particular provision being
waived and specifically stating the scope of the waiver.
