Support for Access Costs. During the term of this Franchise Agreement, Grantee shall provide fifty cents ($0.50) per month per Residential Subscriber (the "PEG Contribution") to be used solely for capital costs related to Public, Educational and Governmental Access and the web based on demand Access programming described in Section 9.5, or as may be permitted by Applicable Law. To address inflationary impacts on capital equipment or to evaluate whether the City’s PEG Access capital costs have reduced with time, the City and Grantee may meet no more than three times after the Effective Date to discuss whether to increase or to decrease the PEG Contribution. The primary purpose of such meetings will be for the parties to review prior expenditures and future capital plans to determine if the current PEG Contribution is reasonably appropriate to meet future needs. The City and Grantee may suggest to each other, based upon their own assessments of reasonable past practices and future anticipated needs, whether the current level of PEG Contribution is appropriate. If either party believes that the PEG Contribution should be modified in a reasonable amount to address such future needs the parties shall share all relevant information supporting their positions and negotiate in good faith to determine if the PEG Contribution should be increased or decreased, and if so, in what amount. Such discussions regarding potential adjustment to the PEG Contribution will be conducted pursuant to the Franchise amendment procedures in Section 4.8 of this Franchise. Grantee shall make PEG Contribution payments quarterly, following the effective date of this Franchise Agreement for the preceding quarter ending March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31. Each payment shall be due and payable no later than thirty (30) days following the end of the quarter. City shall have sole discretion to allocate the expenditure of such payments for any capital costs related to PEG Access. The parties agree that this Franchise shall provide City discretion to utilize Access payments for new internal network connections and enhancements to the City’s existing network.
