5. ANNUAL RENTAL INCREASES. The rent payments shall be subject to an annual rental increase of four percent (4%) per year, to be increased on each anniversary of the Commencement Date. 6. DEPOSIT. In recognition that the Commencement Date may not occur concurrent with the execution of this Agreement by all parties, LESSEE hereby agrees to pay to the LESSOR upon LESSEE'S execution of this Agreement, a one-time, non-recurring, non-refundable payment equal to one (1) month's rent. 7. EXTENSIONS. LESSEE is granted options to extend this Agreement for up to three (3) additional five-year (5) terms (each a "Renewal Term"). Each Renewal Term shall be on the same terms and conditions as set forth herein and subject to the approval of the City Manager and Executive Director of Parks Recreation and Community Services as follows: after the expiration of the original term, LESSOR reserves the right to deny any such extension, by providing no less than six (6) months prior written notice before the extended term ends, if the LESSOR determines, in its reasonable discretion that LESSEE's continued tenancy would not be in conformity with the LESSOR's intended use of its Property at such time. LESSEE may decline its option to renew at the end of the then-current term by giving LESSOR written notice of the intent to terminate at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then current term. 8. GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS. It is understood and agreed that LESSEE's ability to use the Premises is contingent upon its obtaining all of the certificates, permits and other approvals (collectively the "Governmental Approvals") that may be required by any Federal, State or local authorities as well as satisfactory soil boring tests which will permit LESSEE's use of the Premises as set forth herein. LESSOR shall cooperate with LESSEE in its effort to obtain such approvals and shall take no action, which would adversely affect the status of the Property with respect to the proposed use by LESSEE. Prior to the Commencement Date, LESSEE shall have the right (but not the obligation) to enter the Premises for the purpose of making necessary inspections and engineering surveys (and soil tests where applicable) and other reasonably necessary tests (collectively "Tests") to determine the suitability of the Premises for LESSEE's Facilities (as defined below and in Exhibit D, attached hereto) and for the purpose of preparing for the construction of LESSEE's Facilities. In the event that any of such applications for such Governmental Approvals should be finally rejected or any Governmental Approval issued to LESSEE is canceled, expires, lapses, or is otherwise withdrawn or terminated by the governmental authority or soil boring tests are found to be unsatisfactory so that LESSEE will be unable to use the Premises for its intended purposes or LESSEE determines that the Premises is no longer technically compatible for its intended use, LESSEE shall have the right to terminate this Agreement. Notice of LESSEE's exercise of its right to terminate shall be given to LESSOR in writing by certified mail, return receipt requested, and shall be effective upon the mailing of such notice by LESSEE. All rentals paid to said termination date shall be retained by the LESSOR. Upon such termination, this Agreement shall become null and void and all the Parties shall have no further obligations including the payment of money, to each other. 9. APPROVAL OF PLANS. Prior to commencing construction of LESSEE's Facilities (defined below), LESSEE shall obtain LESSOR's approval of LESSEE's work plans, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; such approval shall be issued by the Executive Director of the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Agency or his/her designee. LESSOR shall give such approval or provide LESSEE with its requests for changes, which changes must comply with all applicable building codes, in writing within fifteen (15) working days of LESSOR's receipt of LESSEE's work plans. If LESSEE does not receive such approval or request for changes in writing within such fifteen (15) working day period, LESSOR shall be deemed to have approved the plans. LESSOR shall not be entitled to receive any additional consideration in exchange for giving its approval of LESSEE's plans. 10. USE. LESSEE may use the Premises for any lawful activity in connection with the provisions of mobile/wireless communications services, including without limitation, the transmission and the reception of radio communication signals on various frequencies and the construction, maintenance, and operation of related communications facilities. Accordingly, LESSEE shall have the right to construct, Site No: LA0623B Page 2 of 24 Site Address: 1528 South Standard Avenue, Santa Ana, CA 92707 Execution Copy
