provisions of this Agreement or its obligations under it, including the payment of rent,
FAYETTEVILLE shall give CALLAHAN written notice of such breach. After receipt of
such written notice. CALLAHAN shall have fifteen (15) days in which to cure any monetary
breach and thirty (30) days in which to cure any non -monetary breach, provided
CALLAHAN shall have such extended period as may be required beyond the thirty (30) days
if the nature of the cure is such that it reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days and
CALLAHAN commences the cure within the thirty (30) day period and thereafter
continuously and diligently pursues the cure to completion. FAYETTEVILLE may not
maintain any action or effect any remedies for default against CALLAHAN unless and until
CALLAHAN has failed to cure the breach within the time periods provided in this
Paragraph. However, repetitive breaches relating to blocking or interfering with the access

provisions of this Agreement or its obligations under it, CALLAHAN shall give
FAYETTEVILLE written notice of such breach. After receipt of such written notice,
5
FAYETTEVILLE shall have thirty (30) days in which to cure any such breach, provided
FAYETTEVILLE shall have such extended period as may be required beyond the thirty (30)
days if the nature of the cure is such that it reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days and
FAYETTEVILLE commences the cure within the thirty (30) day period and thereafter
continuously and diligently pursues the cure to completion. CALLAHAN may not maintain
any action or effect any remedies for default against FAYETTEVILLE unless and until
FAYETTEVILLE has failed to cure the breach within the time periods provided in this
Paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, it shall be a default under this
Agreement if FAYETTEVILLE fails, within five (5) days after receipt of written notice of
such breach, to perform an obligation required to be performed by FAYETTEVILLE if the
failure to perform such an obligation interferes with CALLAHAN's ability to conduct its
business on the Property; provided, however, that if the nature of FAYETTEVILLE's
obligation is such that more than five (5) days after such notice is reasonably required for its
performance, then it shall not be a default under this Agreement if performance is
commenced within such five (5) day period and thereafter diligently pursued to completion.
19. REMEDIES. Upon a default, the non -defaulting party may at its option (but
without obligation to do so), perform the defaulting party's duty or obligation on the
defaulting party s behalf. The costs and expenses of any such performance by the non -
defaulting party shall be due and payable by the defaulting party upon invoice therefor. In
the event of a default by either party with respect to a material provision of this Agreement,
without limiting the non -defaulting party in the exercise of any right or remedy which the
non -defaulting may have by reason of such default, the non -defaulting party may terminate
the Agreement and/or pursue any remedy now or hereafter available to the non -defaulting
party under the laws or judicial decisions of the state in which the Premises are located;
provided, however, FAYETTEVILLE and CALLAHAN shall use reasonable efforts to
mitigate any damages in connection with a default by FAYETTEVILLE or CALLAHAN. If

owing by FAYETTEVILLE to CALLAHAN, and FAYETTEVILLE shall pay to
CALLAHAN upon demand the full undisputed amount thereof with interest thereon from the
date of payment at the highest rate permitted by applicable Laws. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if FAYETTEVILLE does not pay CALLAHAN the full undisputed amount within
thirty (30) days of its receipt of an invoice setting forth the amount due from CALLAHAN,
CALLAHAN may offset the full undisputed amount, including all accrued interest, due
against all fees due and owing to FAYETTEVILLE until the full undisputed amount,
including all accrued interest, is fully reimbursed to CALLAHAN.
20. CASUALTY. In the event of damage by fire or other casualty to the Premises
that cannot reasonably be expected to be repaired within forty-five (45) days following the
event, CALLAHAN may terminate this by sending written notice to FAYETTEVILLE. Any
such notice of termination shall cause this Agreement to expire with the same force and
effect as though the date set forth in such notice were the date originally set as the expiration
date of this Agreement and the Parties shall make an appropriate adjustment, as of such
termination date, with respect to payments due to the other under this Agreement.

6
fire or other casualty in proportion to the degree to which CALLAHAN'S use of the
Premises is impaired.

the Property, this Agreement shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date the
condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever occurs first. If as a result of a
partial condemnation of the Premises or Property, CALLAHAN, in CALLAHAN's sole
discretion, is unable to use the Premises for the purposes intended hereunder, or if such
condemnation may reasonably be expected to disrupt CALLAHAN's operations at the
Premises for more than forty-five (45) days, CALLAHAN may, at CALLAHAN's option, to
be exercised in writing within fifteen (15) days after FAYETTEVILLE shall have given
CALLAHAN written notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within fifteen
(15) days after the condemning authority shall have taken possession) terminate this
Agreement as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. CALLAHAN
may on its own behalf make a claim in any condemnation proceeding involving the Premises

and losses. Any such notice of termination shall cause this Agreement to expire with the
same force and effect as though the date set forth in such notice were the date originally set
as the expiration date of this Agreement and the Parties shall make an appropriate adjustment
as of such termination date with respect to payments due to the other under this Agreement,.

Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining,
except that the rent shall be reduced in the same proportion as the rentable area of the
Premises taken bears to the total rentable area of the Premises. In the event that this
Agreement is not terminated by reason of such condemnation, CALLAHAN shall promptly
repair any damage to the Premises caused by such condemning authority.
22. SUBMISSION OF AGREEMENT/PARTIAL INVALIDITY/AUTHORITY.

Premises and this Agreement becomes effective only upon the full execution of this
Agreement by the Parties. If any provision herein is invalid, it shall be considered deleted
from this Agreement and shall not invalidate the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Premises and at CALLAHAN's sole cost and expense, comply with (a) all Laws relating
solely to CALLAHAN'S specific and unique nature of use of the Premises; and (b) all

From: Tony Johnson, Fire
Date: February February 14, 2007
Copy: Mayor Coody
I am writing this letter in support of the cellular phone tower that is proposed by Callahan
Tower Joint Venture (CTJV) which will be located south of the new fire station #5 that is
currently under construction at Crossover and Old Wire Roads. Over the past several
weeks, I have worked closely with City Attorney Kit Williams and CTJV on this
proposal. I believe that this project is in the best interest of the City of Fayetteville,
CTJV and the people of our community. All parties will benefit from the improved and
enhanced communications that this tower will provide In addition, CTJV has agreed to
provide adequate space on the proposed tower for the placement of communication and
radio antennas for the fire department, thus eliminating the need for the fire department to
erect an additional tower in the same proximity.
Thanking you in advance for your consideration and approval of this joint venture.

As a follow up to our telephone conversation last week, I am forwarding to you a short
letter agreement from TV6-W, LLC asking the City of Fayetteville to acknowledge Callahan
Tower Joint Venture's current compliance with its lease with the City of Fayetteville. Jason
Steele and Michael Smith, d/b/a Callahan Tower Joint Venture, have entered into an agreement
with TV6-W, LLC for the sale of substantially all of the assets of Callahan Tower Joint Venture
consisting of seven (7) communication towers located in the northwest Arkansas area As a
condition to the closing, Callahan needs to deliver estoppels of the landlords confirming to TV6-
W, LLC that Callahan Tower Joint Venture is not in default under the Lease. As we discussed,
T6 -W, LLC is agreeable in lieu of an estoppel from the City of Fayetteville to receive a
statement from the City of Fayetteville that Callahan Tower Joint Venture is in full compliance
with its leases with the City of Fayetteville.
To this end, we have enclosed a letter agreement from TV6-W, LLC for execution by the
Mayor and to be attested by the City Clerk. I have also enclosed a copy of TV6-W's registration
to do business in Arkansas.
TV6-W, LLC is the acquisition arm of TV6 Holdings LLC, a communications tower
company which develops, acquires, and operates over 400 communication towers in over 20
states. TV6-W, LLC will be the owner of the 7 Callahan Towers and together with their other
acquisitions will own and operate 31 towers by the close of the second quarter of this year. The
principals of TV6 Holdings LLC have developed communication towers for the last 20 years and
currently ranks as one of the larger privately held tower companies in the country. In addition,
principals of TV6 Holdings LLC have other interests in northwest Arkansas. TV6 Holdings,
LLC's lead investor is also a principal in the Ruth's Chris Restaurant in Rogers, Arkansas.
