The standard T-Mobile Cell Site Lease typically includes the following provisions:

1. Option to Lease - upon execution, the T-Mobile Cell Site Lease is initially an option for a specified period of time in which T-Mobile may lease a portion of the landowner’s property. During the option period, T-Mobile may file for any government approvals required for its use of the property as well as perform other due diligence on the property including surveys, soil tests, and other engineering or environmental tests to determine the suitability for its use. In exchange for the option, T-Mobile agrees to pay an option fee and the option period may be extended for another 12 months.
2. Term and Renewal - the term of the T-Mobile Cell Site Lease is 5 years commencing on the date that T-Mobile exercises the option and the Lease automatically extends for 5 additional 5 year terms unless T-Mobile notifies the landowner of its intent not to renew prior to the expiration of the initial term or any renewal.
3. Permitted Use - the T-Mobile Cell Site Lease specifies that T-Mobile may use the premises for transmitting and receiving radio signals and for installing a tower and base, antennas, microwave dishes and shelter.
4. Interference - T-Mobile agrees not to interfere with the landowner’s or other tenant’s pre-existing use of the property. Conversely, the landowner agrees not to interfere with T-Mobile’s use of the premises. In the event of interference, the interfering party agrees to promptly remedy it.
5. Improvements, Utilities and Access - T-Mobile reserves the right to alter, replace and upgrade its antenna equipment as well as remove its equipment at any time during the Lease. Upon termination, T-Mobile will return the premises in good condition. In addition, T-Mobile may install utilities on the property, including a generator and by entering into the T-Mobile Cell Site Lease, the landowner agrees to grant an easement to T-Mobile for the use and maintenance of its equipment. The premises may be used 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
6. Termination - the T-Mobile Cell Site Lease may be terminated i) by the landowner if T-Mobile fails to pay rent within 30 days; ii) by T-Mobile if it is unable to maintain any government approvals, because of unsatisfactory title or soil results, or because the premises become unacceptable based on its design specifications; or iii) by T-Mobile for economic reasons.
7. Taxes and Insurance - T-Mobile shall pay any real or personal property taxes attributable to its equipment and is required to maintain liability insurance. The landowner and T-Mobile agree to indemnify and hold harmless each other from all claims and damages arising out of the negligent acts of the other party on the property.
8. Assignment - the T-Mobile Cell Site Lease may be freely assigned and the premises may be subleased by T-Mobile without the landowner’s consent.
