In the event that any applications for such Governmental Approvals should be finally rejected or if any Governmental Approval issued to TENANT is cancelled, expires, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or terminated by governmental authority, or soil boring tests are found to be unsatisfactory so that Tenant, in its sole discretion, will be unable to use the Leased Premises for its intended purposes, or the TENANT determines that the Leased Premises are no longer technically compatible with the use which TENANT has made, through no action or fault of TENANT, TENANT shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving ninety (90) days' advance written notice to LANDLORD. Said termination shall release LANDLORD and TENANT from all further obligations set forth herein one to the other.

Section Fourteen of the Lease entitled Default is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is inserted in lieu thereof: "14. DEFAULT: Should TENANT fail to pay when due rent or any other amounts owed LANDLORD hereunder after fifteen (15) days' written notice and demand, or should TENANT fail to cure any breach of any other provision of this Agreement after sixty (60) days' written notice and demand, LANDLORD may terminate the Agreement immediately, without further notice, and require TENANT to remove, or cause to be removed, all of TENANT'S equipment. TENANT shall, in such event, remain liable for any and all costs incurred for removal of TENANT'S antennas, transmission lines and associated equipment from LANDLORD'S Tower - 6 - and for removal of associated structures from space provided. LANDLORD shall not be liable for any damage to such equipment during its removal." 10. Section Fifteen of the Lease entitled Surrender of Premises is hereby deleted and restated as follows: "15.

If such time for removal causes TENANT to remain on the Leased Premises and Tower after the termination or expiration of this Agreement, TENANT shall pay rent at the then existing monthly pro-rata basis, until such time as removal of TENANT'S personal property and fixtures are completed." 11. Section Sixteen of the Lease entitled Interference is hereby deleted and restated as follows: "16. INTERFERENCE: (a) TENANT'S equipment shall not cause stray currents that will in any way damage the integrity of the Leased Premises.

If requested by LANDLORD, TENANT shall provide detailed RF interference analysis showing potential conflicts between TENANT'S frequencies and those of LANDLORD or other occupants already in place on the Tower. In the event TENANT'S equipment causes such interference, TENANT shall take steps necessary to correct and eliminate the interference. (c) In the event LANDLORD enters into lease or license agreements with others for the Leased Premises, then LANDLORD agrees to require such lessees or licensees to install equipment of types and frequencies that will not cause interference to TENANT'S communications operations being conducted on the Leased Premises. LANDLORD agrees that in the event such lessee or licensee causes interference with TENANT'S equipment, LANDLORD shall require such lessee or licensee to - 7 - take all steps reasonably necessary to correct and eliminate the interference. Cd) The parties acknowledge that there will not be an adequate remedy at law for non-compliance with the provisions of this Section and therefore, either party shall have the right to specifically enforce the provisions of this Section in the Superior Court of Richmond County." 12. Subsection (a) of Section Seventeen of the Lease entitled Assignment: Subletting is hereby deleted and restated as follows: "(a) This Agreement may be sold, assigned or transferred by the TENANT without any approval or consent of the LANDLORD to TENANT'S principal, affiliates, subsidiaries of its principal or to any entity which acquires all or substantially all of TENANT'S assets in the market defined by the Federal Communications Commission in which the Leased Premises is located by reason of a merger, acquisition or other business reorganization.

Any such notice of termination shall cause this Lease 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 Lease and the parties shall make an appropriate adjustment, as of such termination date, with respect to payments due to the other under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all rental shall abate during the period of such fire or other casualty." 19. The following Section entitled Terminal Relocation is hereby added to the Lease as Section Thirty-Three: "33. TERMINAL RELOCATION. TENANT acknowledges that at some point during the term of this Agreement, LANDLORD may undertake to relocate the existing airport terminal at Augusta Regional Airport at Bush Field and that such relocation might require the removal of the Tower (hereinafter the "Terminal Relocation"). Immediately following the LANDLORD'S determination that it is necessary for the LANDLORD to dismantle the Tower for purposes of the Terminal Relocation, LANDLORD shall provide not less than nine (9) months' advance written notice (the "Notice Period") to TENANT of such Terminal Relocation necessitating the removal of the Tower (the "Relocation Notice").

In the event TENANT elects to proceed pursuant to subsection (ii) hereinabove, this Agreement shall apply to the Replacement COW Site. LANDLORD agrees to keep TENANT informed of the scheduled date upon which the Tower will be dismantled for purposes associated with the Tower Relocation. In the event the actual dismantling of the Tower has not commenced by the date that is ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the Notice Period, then in such event the date for removal of TENANT's communications equipment from the Tower shall be extended such that TENANT shall have not less than ninety (90) days' advance written notice before actual dismantling of the Tower begins." 20.
