Communications Equipment (a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 3.5, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right, at its sole cost and expense and for Tenant’s use, to install, maintain and operate upon the roof of the Building one (1) or a reasonable and necessary additional number of transmitters and/or receiver antennas or dishes approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (collectively, the “Communications Equipment”) for use by Tenant in the conduct of its business; provided that such Communications Equipment may not materially compromise the aesthetics or appearance of the Building nor shall Landlord be required to incur any expense in accommodating the Communications Equipment. The Communications Equipment must be (i) designed, installed and operated in compliance with all Legal Requirements, and (ii) installed and operated so as not to adversely affect or impact structural, mechanical, electrical, elevator, or other systems serving the Building or customary telephone service for the Building and so as not to cause injury to persons or property, and without limitation of the foregoing, so as not to void or impair any applicable roof warranty. Upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove the Communications Equipment and repair any damage to the Building caused by the installation, maintenance, use or removal of the Communications Equipment. (b) Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the right to install (at Tenant’s sole cost and expense) any additional equipment required to operate the Communications Equipment and to connect the Communications Equipment to Tenant’s other machinery and equipment located in the Leased Premises (e.g., conduits and cables) in the shafts, ducts, chases and utility closets located in the core of the building (“Additional Equipment”), which Additional Equipment shall be deemed a part of the Communications Equipment for all purposes of this Section 3.5; provided that (i) the use of such space in the Building core by Tenant (except customary chases for cabling) may not materially adversely affect the marketability of the remaining space on any floor of the Building, and (ii) to the extent any such Additional Equipment occupies space (other than space in customary chases for the Building) that would have otherwise been Net Rentable Area on a floor of the Building, such space shall be included within the Net Rentable Area of the Leased Premises and Tenant shall be obligated to pay Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent with respect to such space as if such space was included in the Leased Premises. Tenant’s use of such space in the Building core shall be subject to the provisions of this Lease relating to Tenant’s use of Common Areas of the Building. (c) Subject to the Building Rules and other reasonable rules relating to Building security and safety that may be promulgated by Landlord pertaining to access by tenants to the roof of the Building and provided Tenant does not unreasonably disturb any other tenants of the Building, Tenant and Tenant’s contractors shall have reasonable access to the Communications Equipment and the Additional Equipment for purposes of operating, servicing, repairing or otherwise maintaining said equipment. (d) Nothing contained in this Section 3.5 shall be deemed to prohibit or restrict any other individual or entity, including Landlord or any other tenant of the Building, from installing communications equipment on the roof of the Building or to use the roof for any other purpose. (e) In connection with its installation, repair, maintenance and removal of any Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment, Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall comply with all applicable Building Rules and Legal Requirements and repair any damage to the Building caused by such installation, repair, maintenance or removal. In the event that the placement of Tenant’s Communications Equipment or Additional Equipment interferes with Landlord’s performance of any repair or maintenance to the Common Areas, including the roofs of the Buildings, any costs incurred by Landlord to temporarily or permanently relocate and reinstall Tenant’s Communications Equipment or Additional Equipment shall be included in the cost of such repair or maintenance as a Operating Expense. (f) Tenant’s Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment existing as of the Commencement Date are hereby deemed to be approved by Landlord. Any changes to the existing Communications Equipment and/or Additional Equipment by Tenant shall first be approved by Landlord, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. (g) If Landlord shall place on the roof of any Building communications equipment of its own, or shall grant to any third party the right to locate and maintain any such equipment, all such equipment shall be located, designed and operated so as not to interfere with signals to and from Tenant’s Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment, the installation of which, in accordance with this Section 3.5, predates the installation of such other equipment. Similarly, any Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment hereafter installed by Tenant shall be located and designed so as not to interfere with signals to and from such other equipment belonging to Landlord or to third parties, that may have previously been installed. The party responsible for the communications equipment which interferes with equipment previously installed by others shall be required, at its or their expense, to take all measures necessary to eliminate the source of interference caused by such party’s equipment.
Network Interconnection Architecture Each Party will plan, design, construct and maintain the facilities within their respective systems as are necessary and proper for the provision of traffic covered by this Agreement. These facilities include but are not limited to, a sufficient number of trunks to the point of interconnection with the tandem company, and sufficient interoffice and interexchange facilities and trunks between its own central offices to adequately handle traffic between all central offices within the service areas at a P.01 grade of service or better. The provisioning and engineering of such services and facilities will comply with generally accepted industry methods and practices, and will observe the rules and regulations of the lawfully established tariffs applicable to the services provided.
Loop Provisioning Involving Integrated Digital Loop Carriers 2.6.1 Where Xxxx has requested an Unbundled Loop and BellSouth uses IDLC systems to provide the local service to the End User and BellSouth has a suitable alternate facility available, BellSouth will make such alternative facilities available to Xxxx. If a suitable alternative facility is not available, then to the extent it is technically feasible, BellSouth will implement one of the following alternative arrangements for Xxxx (e.g. hairpinning): 1. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to any spare copper that exists to the customer premises. 2. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to an existing DLC that is not integrated. 3. If capacity exists, provide "side-door" porting through the switch. 4. If capacity exists, provide "Digital Access Cross Connect System (DACS)- door" porting (if the IDLC routes through a DACS prior to integration into the switch). 2.6.2 Arrangements 3 and 4 above require the use of a designed circuit. Therefore, non- designed Loops such as the SL1 voice grade and UCL-ND may not be ordered in these cases. 2.6.3 If no alternate facility is available, and upon request from Xxxx, and if agreed to by both Parties, BellSouth may utilize its Special Construction (SC) process to determine the additional costs required to provision facilities. Xxxx will then have the option of paying the one-time SC rates to place the Loop.
