LICENSOR hereby offers to LICENSEE and LICENSEE hereby accepts from LICENSOR
space within the County's ground-level communications equipment shelter located at 312 Stockade
Road, Immokalee, Florida, for LICENSEE'S transmitter and related equipment. The location shall be

of this License, hereinafter referred to as "Demised Premises."
LICENSEE shall be permitted access, throughout the life of this License, along the "Access
Road," as shown on the attached Exhibit `A' in order to access the Demised Premises.
ARTICLE 2. Term of License
LICENSEE shall have and hold the Demised Premises for a term of five (5) years
commencing on the date this License is executed by LICENSOR, and shall automatically renew for two
(2) separate terms of five (5) years each, provided LICENSEE is not then in default of any of the
provisions of this License, under the same terms and conditions, as provided herein, except as to the
rental amount, as provided in Article 3 below.
Both LICENSEE and LICENSOR will be allowed to terminate this License by providing the
other party with thirty (30) day written notice. Said notice shall be effective upon actual receipt by
LICENSEE or LICENSOR. LICENSEE shall be granted an additional sixty (60) days from the
aforementioned thirty (30) day notice period, if required, in order to secure and relocate to an alternate
site for operations conducted at the Demised Premises.
In addition, LICENSEE covenants and agrees not to use, occupy, suffer or permit said
Demised Premises or any part thereof to be used or occupied for any purpose that is not authorized by
this License or is contrary to law or rules or regulations of any public authority having jurisdiction over
the Demised Premises.
ARTICLE 3. Compensation
In the spirit of community mindedness, there shall not be any compensation associated with
the use of the Demised Premises.
ARTICLE 4. Left Blank Intentionally
ARTICLE 5. Modifications to Demised Premises
Prior to making any changes, alterations, additions or improvements to the Demised
Premises, LICENSEE must provide to LICENSOR all proposals and plans for alterations,
improvements, changes or additions to the Demised Premises for LICENSOR'S written approval,
specifying in writing, and in meaningful detail, the nature and extent of the desired alteration,
improvement, change, or addition, along with the contemplated starting and completion time for such
project. LICENSOR or its designee will then have sixty (60) days within which to approve or deny in
writing said request for changes, improvements, alterations or additions. LICENSOR shall not
unreasonably withhold its consent to required or appropriate alterations, improvements, changes or
additions proposed by LICENSEE. If after sixty (60) days, there has been no response from LICENSOR
or its designee to said proposals or plans, then such silence shall be deemed as a DENIAL to such
request to LICENSEE.
LICENSEE covenants and agrees in connections with any maintenance, repair work,
improvements, additions or alterations of any authorized modifications, additions or improvements to
the Demised Premises, to observe and comply with all then and future applicable laws, ordinance, rules,

Demised Premises.
ARTICLE 7. Assignment and Subletting
LICENSEE shall not assign this License or attempt to sublet the whole or any part of the
Demised Premises, or permit any other persons to occupy same without the expressed prior written
consent of LICENSOR. Any such assignment or subletting, even with the consent of LICENSOR, shall
not relieve LICENSEE from liability for payment of rent or other sums herein provided or from the
obligation to keep and be bound by the terms, conditions and covenants of this License unless a
novation is expressly agreed to by LICENSOR. The acceptance of rent from any other person shall not
be deemed to be a waiver of any of the provisions of this License or to be a consent to the assignment of
this License or subletting of the Demised Premises. Any such attempt shall be null and void.

ARTICLE 8. Indemnity and Insurance
The LICENSEE assumes any and all risks of personal injury, bodily injury and property damage
attributable to the negligent acts or omissions of the LICENSEE and the officers, employees, servants, and
agents thereof. The LICENSEE warrants and represents that it is self-funded for Worker's compensation
and liability insurance, covering at a minimum bodily injury, personal injury and property damage with
protection being applicable to the LICENSEE's officers, employees, servants and agents while acting
within the scope of their employment during performance under this Agreement. The LICENSEE and the
LICENSOR further agree that nothing contained herein shall be construed or interpreted as (1) denying to
either party any remedy or defense available to such party under the laws of the State of Florida; (2) the
consent of the State of Florida or its agents and agencies to be sued; or(3) a waiver of sovereign immunity
of the State of Florida beyond the waiver provided in Section 768.28, Florida Statutes

advised in writing. If corrective action is not taken within ten (10) days of the receipt of such notice,
LICENSOR may cause the same to be cleaned and corrected and LICENSEE shall assume and pay all
such necessary cleaning costs and such costs shall constitute additional rent which shall be paid by
LICENSEE within ten(10) days of receipt of written notice of costs incurred by LICENSOR.

LICENSOR.
ARTICLE 11. Default by LICENSEE
Failure of LICENSEE to commence remedy of default as soon as possible and to complete
remedy of default in thirty (30) days with any provision or covenant of this License shall constitute a
default whereby LICENSOR may, at its option, terminate this License by giving LICENSEE thirty (30)
days written notice to vacate the Demised Premises unless the default is fully cured within that thirty
(30) day notice period (or such LICENSOR approved additional time as is reasonably required to correct

remove all persons and property from the Demised Premises. Such property may be removed and stored
in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of LICENSEE, all without service
of notice or resort to legal process and without being deemed guilty of trespass, or being liable for any
loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby.

LICENSEE'S use under this License, and if the lien is not removed within thirty (30) days, pursuant to
the Florida Mechanics Lien Law or otherwise.
