Application Form To apply for a pole attachment or conduit occupancy license under this Agreement, Applicant shall submit to SWBT two signed copies of the appropriate application forms. SWBT represents that the forms specified in subsections (a)-(b) are forms in use prior to the effective date of this Agreement and that SWBT is in the process of revising such forms to conform to the provisions of this Agreement and to streamline the application process. The parties therefore agree that the forms specified in subsections (a) and (b) will be interim forms only. SWBT reserves the right to change the format and content of these forms upon 60 days written notice to Applicant.
(a) To apply for a pole attachment license, Applicant shall submit to SWBT two signed copies of SWBT’s Form SW-9434 (“Access Application and Make- Ready Authorization”) together with completed Form SW-9433 (“Pole Attachments”). An application for a pole attachment license will not be complete or subject to processing by SWBT until these forms have been submitted to SWBT; provided, however, that such forms will be deemed to be substantially complete if they contain the information specified in subsections (c)-(h) below, as applicable. Copies of Forms SW-9433 and SW-9434 are attached to this Agreement as parts of APPENDIX III.
(b) To apply for a conduit occupancy license, Applicant shall submit to SWBT two signed copies of SWBT’s Form SW-9434 (“Access Application and Make-Ready Authorization”) together with completed Form SW-9435 (“Conduit Occupancy”). An application for a conduit occupancy license will not be complete or subject to processing by SWBT until these forms have been submitted to SWBT; provided, however, that such forms will be deemed to be substantially complete if they contain the information specified in subsections (c)-(h) below, as applicable. Copies of Forms SW-9434 and SW-9435 are attached to this Agreement as parts of APPENDIX III.
(c) Each application for a license under this Agreement shall include, at a minimum, the following information:
(1) the poles, ducts, and conduits (including all manholes) along Applicant’s proposed route to or within which Applicant desires to attach or place its facilities;
(2) a description of the facilities to be attached to SWBT’s poles and a description of the facilities to be placed within each component of SWBT’s conduit system (including but not limited to ducts, conduits, manholes, and handholes) along the proposed route;
(3) for poles, the proposed points of attachment;
(4) for building entrance or building distribution ducts or conduits or other space within a building, a conspicuous statement, as required by Section 5.06 of this Agreement, that the application pertains to a building entrance or building distribution duct or conduit or other space within a building;
(5) if applicable, a conspicuous notation that the space requested is not to be assigned (or billed) to Applicant until SWBT has received Applicant’s written instruction to make such assignment or issued a license authorizing Applicant to occupy the space requested; and
(6) if applicable, a conspicuous statement that Applicant intends to occupy the space before the issuance of a license, as provided in Section 8.03 of this Agreement.
(d) Facilities descriptions which apply to multiple pole attachments or conduit occupancies need only be described once on any form. Facilities descriptions shall include, at a minimum, the following information:
(1) the number and types of cables, including the physical size (diameter) and weight (weight per foot);
(2) the number and types of strands, if any, which will be used to support the cables, including the rated holding capacity expressed in thousand pound increments (e.g., 2.2M) of such strands; and
(3) sufficient information to identify and describe the physical characteristics (size, dimensions, and weight) of apparatus enclosures and other facilities to be attached to SWBT’s poles or placed in SWBT’s conduit system.
(e) When it appears to Applicant that facilities modification, capacity expansion, or make-ready work may be required to accommodate Applicant’s access requests, Applicant shall describe the facilities modification, capacity expansion, or make-ready work which Applicant proposes. Applicant shall also describe its plans, if any, to use any infrequent construction technique or connectivity solution authorized under Section 6.03 to avoid high or unusual expenditures and state its reasons for the use of such technique or solution.
(f) Applicant acknowledges that the poles along a particular pole line or route may include poles owned by firms (such as electric utilities) other than SWBT, that it may be necessary for SWBT to rearrange its facilities or perform other make-ready work on poles other than poles it owns or controls in order to accommodate Applicant’s request for access to SWBT’s poles and that, at the time an application is submitted, it may be difficult for Applicant to determine with certainty whether a particular pole is owned or controlled by SWBT or by another entity. Accordingly, the application shall, to the extent feasible, identify all poles utilized by SWBT (without regard to ownership) along Applicant’s proposed route.
(g) Each application for a license under this Agreement shall be accompanied by a construction schedule showing Applicant’s projected dates for beginning and completing construction at the sites specified in the application. Information on this schedule may be used by SWBT’s engineering and outside plant construction personnel in scheduling work required to process Applicant’s applications and scheduling such capacity expansions, make- ready work, and facilities modifications, if any, as may be necessary to accommodate Applicant’s facilities.
(h) Applicant may include multiple cables in a single license application and may provide multiple services (e.g., CATV and non-CATV services) under the same cable sheath or jacket. When both CATV and non-CATV services are provided under the same cable sheath or jacket, or CATV and non-CATV services are provided using different cables attached or lashed to the same strand or otherwise occupying the same space on a pole or the same duct or inner duct within a conduit, Applicant will so advise SWBT and SWBT shall, if permitted by law, adjust its charges to enable SWBT to charge Applicant the rate applicable to telecommunications carriers rather than the rate applicable to cable television systems solely to provide cable service.
REQUESTS FOR PAYMENT Payments shall be made in accordance with Article I.4 of the Special Conditions.
Order of Application (a) If no Default or Potential Default exists, payments, and prepayments of the Obligation shall be applied first to fees then due, second to accrued interest then due and payable on the Principal Debt, and then to the remaining Obligation in the order and manner as Borrower may direct.
(b) If a Default or Potential Default exists, any payment or prepayment (including proceeds from the exercise of any Rights) shall be applied to the Obligation in the following order: (i) to the payment of all fees, expenses, and indemnities for which Administrative Agent has not been paid or reimbursed in accordance with the Loan Papers; (ii) to the ratable payment of all fees, expenses, and indemnities (other than L/C fees set forth in Section 5.3 hereof (collectively, “L/C Fees”)) for which Lenders have not been paid or reimbursed in accordance with the Loan Papers (as used in this clause (ii), a “ratable payment” for any Lender shall be, on any date of determination, that proportion which the portion of the total fees, expenses, and indemnities owed to such Lender bears to the total aggregate fees, expenses, and indemnities owed to all Lenders on such date of determination); (iii) to the ratable payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Debt and L/C Fees (as used in this clause (iii), “ratable payment” means, for any Lender, on any date of determination, that proportion which the accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Debt owed to such Lender bears to the total accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Debt owed to all Lenders); (iv) to the ratable payment of the Principal Debt (as used in this clause (iv), “ratable payment” means for any Lender, on any date of determination, that proportion which the Principal Debt owed to such Lender bears to the Principal Debt owed to all Lenders); (v) to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer, to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Exposure comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of L/Cs; (vi) to the payment of the remaining Obligation in the order and manner Required Lenders deem appropriate; and (vii) the balance, if any, after all of the Obligation has been indefeasibly paid in full, to Borrower or as otherwise required by Law. Subject to Section 2.3(c), amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of L/Cs pursuant to clause (v) above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such L/Cs as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all L/Cs have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligation, if any, in the order set forth above. Subject to the provisions of Section 14 and provided that Administrative Agent shall not in any event be bound to inquire into or to determine the validity, scope, or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Lender and may suspend all payments or seek appropriate relief (including, without limitation, instructions from Required Lenders, Required Revolver Lenders or Required Term Loan Lenders or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby, Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to each Lender in accordance with the Agreement and the related Loan Papers.
