EXHIBIT B
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Section 1. LIMITATION AND SUBORDINATION OF RIGHTS GRANTED.
A. The foregoing grant is subject and subordinate to the prior and continuing right and
obligation of Licensor to use and maintain its entire property including the right and power of Licensor to
construct, maintain, repair, renew, use, operate, change, modify or relocate railroad tracks, signal,
communication, fiber optics, or other wirelines, pipelines and other facilities upon, along or across any or
all parts of its property, all or any of which may be freely done at any time or times by Licensor without
liability to Licensee or to any other party for compensation or damages.
B. The foregoing grant is also subject to all outstanding superior rights (including those in
favor of licensees and lessees of Railroad Property) and the right of Licensor to renew and extend the
same, and is made without covenant of title or for quiet enjoyment. It shall be Licensee's sole obligation
to obtain such additional permission, license and grants necessary on account of any such existing rights.
Section 2. ENGINEERING REQUIREMENTS, PERMITS.
A. Licensee's Facilities will be designed, constructed, operated, maintained, repaired,
renewed, modified, reconstructed, removed, or abandoned in place on Railroad Property by
Licensee or its contractor to Licensor's satisfaction and in strict conformity with: (i) Licensor's
current engineering standards and specifications, including those for aerial marker balls, shoring
and cribbing to protect Licensor's railroad operations and facilities ("UP Specifications"), except
for variances approved in advance in writing by Licensor's Assistant Vice President Engineering
— Design or its authorized representative ("UP Engineering Representative"); (ii) such other
additional safety standards as Licensor, in its sole discretion, elects to require, including, without
limitation, American Railway Engineering and Maintenance -of -Way Association ("AREMA")
standards and guidelines (collectively, "UP Additional Requirements"); and (iii) all applicable laws,
rules, and regulations, including any applicable Federal Railroad Administration, Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, and Federal Aviation Administration regulations and enactments (collectively,
"Laws"). If there is any conflict between UP Specifications,
UP Additional Requirements, and Laws, the most restrictive will apply.
B. If Licensee's Facilities will be located underground, Licensee shall keep the soil over
Licensee's Facilities thoroughly compacted, and maintain the grade over and around Licensee's Facilities
even with the surface of the adjacent ground.
C. Licensee shall not transmit electric current from Licensee's Facilities at a difference of
potential in excess of the voltage indicated on Exhibit A. If the voltage indicated is in excess of seven
hundred fifty volts (750V), and Licensee's Facilities will be buried at any location outside of track ballast
or roadbed on Railroad Property, Licensee shall install metallic conduit, or non-metallic conduit encased
in a minimum of three inches (3") of concrete with a minimum of four feet (4') of ground cover the entire
length of Licensee's Facilities. Any of Licensee's Facilities buried by removal of soil shall have,
at a depth of one foot (l') beneath the surface of the ground directly above Licensee's Facilities, with a six
inch (6") wide warning tape labeled "Danger -High Voltage" or equivalent wording. Any of Licensee's
Facilities encased in conduit, jacked, or bored under Railroad Property must be identified with warning
signs ("Warning Signs") at each edge of Railroad Property, to be installed and properly maintained at
Licensee's cost and expense. Licensee shall not utilize Warning Signs in lieu of the warning tape where
portions of the casing are installed by direct burial.
D. If needed, Licensee shall secure, at Licensee's sole cost and expense, any and all
necessary permits required to perform any work on Licensee's Facilities.
Section 3. NOTICE OF COMMENCEMENT OF WORK; EMERGENCIES.
A. Licensee and it contractors are strictly prohibited from commencing any work associated
with Licensee's Facilities without Licensor's written approval that the work will be in strict compliance
with the "ENGINEERING REQUIREMENTS; PERMITS" Section of this Exhibit B. Upon Licensor's
approval, Licensee shall contact both of Licensor's field representatives ("Licensor's Field
Representatives") at least ten (14) days before commencement of any work on Licensee's Facilities.
B. Licensee shall not commence any work until: (l) Licensor has determined whether
flagging or other special protective or safety measures ("Safety Measures") are required for performance
of the work pursuant to the "FLAGGING" Section of this Exhibit B and provided Licensee written
authorization to commence work; and (2) Licensee has complied with the "PROTECTION OF FIBER
OPTIC CABLE SYSTEMS" Section of this Exhibit B.
C. If, at any time, an emergency arises involving Licensee's Facilities, Licensee or its
contractor shall immediately contact Licensor's Response Management Communications Center at
(888) 877-7267.
Section 4. FLAGGING.
A. Following Licensee's notice to Licensor's Field Representatives required under the
"NOTICE OF COMMENCEMENT OF WORK; EMERGENCIES" Section of this Exhibit B, Licensor
shall inform Licensee if Safety Measures are required for performance of the work by Licensee or its
contractor on Railroad Property. If Safety Measures are required, no work of any kind may be performed
by Licensee or its contractor(s) until arrangements for the Safety Measures have been made and
scheduled. If no Safety Measures are required, Licensor will give Licensee written authorization to
commence work.
B. If any Safety Measures are performed or provided by Licensor, including but not limited
to flagging, Licensor shall bill Licensee for such expenses incurred by Licensor, unless Licensor and a
federal, state, or local governmental entity have agreed that Licensor is to bill such expenses to the
federal, state, or local governmental entity. Additional information regarding the submission of such
expenses by Licensor and payment thereof by Licensee can be found in the "LICENSEE'S PAYMENT
OF EXPENSES" Section of this Exhibit B. If Licensor performs any Safety Measures, Licensee agrees
that Licensee is not relieved of any of responsibilities or liabilities set forth in this Agreement.
C. For flagging, the rate of pay per hour for each flagger will be the prevailing hourly rate in
effect for an eight-hour day for the class of flagmen used during regularly assigned hours and overtime in
accordance with Labor Agreements and Schedules in effect at the time the work is performed. In addition
to the cost of such labor, a composite charge for vacation, holiday, health and welfare, supplemental
sickness, Railroad Retirement and unemployment compensation, supplemental pension, Employees
Liability and Property Damage, and Administration will be included, computed on actual payroll. The
composite charge will be the prevailing composite charge in effect at the time the work is performed. One
and one-half times the current hourly rate is paid for overtime, Saturdays and Sundays, and two and one-
half times current hourly rate for holidays. Wage rates are subject to change, at any time, by law or by
agreement between Licensor and its employees, and may be retroactive as a result of negotiations or a
ruling of an authorized governmental agency. Additional charges on labor are also subject to change. If
the wage rate or additional charges are changed, Licensee (or the governmental entity, as applicable) shall
pay on the basis of the new rates and charges.
D. Reimbursement to Licensor will be required covering the full eight-hour day during
which any flagger is furnished, unless the flagger can be assigned to other railroad work during a portion
of such day, in which event reimbursement will not be required for the portion of the day during which
the flagger is engaged in other railroad work. Reimbursement will also be required for any day not
actually worked by the flaggers following the flaggers' assignment to work on the project for which
Licensor is required to pay the flaggers and which could not reasonably be avoided by Licensor by
assignment of such flaggers to other work, even though Licensee may not be working during such time.
When it becomes necessary for Licensor to bulletin and assign an employee to a flagging position in
compliance with union collective bargaining agreements, Licensee must provide Licensor a minimum of
five (5) days notice prior to the cessation of the need for a flagger. If five (5) days notice of cessation is
not given, Licensee will still be required to pay flagging charges for the days the flagger was scheduled,
even though flagging is no longer required for that period. An additional ten (10) days notice must then be
given to Licensor if flagging services are needed again after such five day cessation notice has been given
to Licensor.
Section 5. SAFETY.
A. Safety of personnel, property, rail operations and the public is of paramount importance
in the prosecution of any work on Railroad Property performed by Licensee or its contractor, and takes
precedence over any work on Licensee's Facilities to be performed by Licensee or its contractors.
Licensee shall be responsible for initiating, maintaining and supervising all safety operations and
programs in connection with any work on Licensee's Facilities. Licensor and its contractor shall, at a
minimum comply, with Licensor's then current safety standards located at the below web address
("Licensor's Safety Standards") to ensure uniformity with the safety standards followed by Licensor's own
forces. As a part of Licensee's safety responsibilities, Licensee shall notify Licensor if it determines that
any of Licensor's Safety Standards are contrary to good safety practices. Licensee and its contractor shall
furnish copies of Licensor's Safety Standards to each of its employees before they enter Railroad Property
found at the link below.
Union Pacific Current Safety fte uirementk
B. Licensee shall keep the job site on Railroad Property free from safety and health hazards
and ensure that their employees are competent and adequately trained in all safety and health aspects of
the work.
C. Licensee represents and warrants that all parts of Licensee's Facilities within and outside
of the limits of Railroad Property will not interfere whatsoever with the constant, continuous, and
uninterrupted use of the tracks, property, and facilities of Licensor, and nothing shall be done or suffered
to be done by Licensee at any time that would in any manner impair the safety thereof. Licensee shall
take all suitable precaution to prevent interference (by induction, leakage of electricity, or otherwise) with
the operation of the signal, communication lines or other installations or facilities of Licensor or of its
tenants. If, at any time, the operation or maintenance of Licensee's Facilities results in any electrostatic
effects which Licensor deems undesirable or harmful, or causes interference with the operation of the
signal, communication lines or other installations or facilities, as now existing or which may hereafter be
provided by Licensor and, or its tenants, Licensee shall, at the sole cost and expense of Licensee,
immediately modify or take action as may be necessary to eliminate such interference.
D. Licensor's operations and work performed by Licensor's personnel may cause delays in
Licensee's or its contractor's work on Licensee's Facilities. Licensee accepts this risk and agrees that
Licensor shall have no liability to Licensee or any other person or entity for any such delays. Licensee
must coordinate any work on Railroad Property by Licensee or any third party with Licensor's Field
Representatives in strict compliance with the "NOTICE OF COMMENCEMENT OF WORK;
EMERGENCIES" Section of this Exhibit B.
E. Licensor shall have the right, if it so elects, to provide any support it deems necessary for
the safety of Licensor's operations and trackage during Licensee's or its contractor's construction,
maintenance, repair, renewal, modification, relocation, reconstruction, or removal of Licensee's Facilities.
In the event Licensor provides such support, Licensor shall invoice Licensee, and Licensee shall pay
Licensor as set forth in the "LICENSEE'S PAYMENT OF EXPENSES" Section of this Exhibit B.
F. Licensee may use unmanned aircraft systems ("UAS") to inspect Licensee's Facilities
only upon the prior authorization from and under the direction of Licensor's Field Representatives.
Licensee represents and warrants that its use of UAS on Railroad Property will comply with Licensor's
then -current Unmanned Aerial Systems Policy and all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including
any applicable Federal Aviation Administration regulations and enactments pertaining to UAS.
Section 6. PROTECTION OF FIBER OPTIC CABLE SYSTEMS.
Fiber optic cable systems may be buried on Railroad Property. Protection of the fiber optic cable
systems is of extreme importance since any break could disrupt service to users resulting in business
interruption and loss of revenue and profits. In addition to the notifications required under the "NOTICE
OF COMMENCEMENT OF WORK; EMERGENCIES" Section of this Exhibit B, Licensee shall
telephone Licensor during normal business hours (7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Central Time, Monday through
Friday, except for holidays) at I-800-336-9193 (also a 24-hour, 7 -day number for emergency calls) to
determine if fiber optic cable is buried anywhere on Railroad Property to be used by Licensee. If it is,
Licensee shall telephone the telecommunications company(ies) involved, and arrange for a cable locator,
make arrangements for relocation or other protection of the fiber optic cable, all at Licensee's expense,
and will not commence any work on Railroad Property until all such protection or relocation has been
completed.
Section 7. LICENSEE'S PAYMENT OF EXPENSES.
A. Licensee shall bear the entire cost and expense of the design, construction, maintenance,
modification, reconstruction, repair, renewal, revision, relocation, or removal of Licensee's Facilities.
B. Licensee shall fully pay for all materials joined, affixed to and labor performed on
Railroad Property in connection with the construction, maintenance, modification, reconstruction, repair,
renewal, revision, relocation, or removal of Licensee's Facilities, and shall not permit or suffer any
mechanic's or materialman's lien of any kind or nature to be enforced against the property for any work
done or materials furnished thereon at the instance or request or on behalf of Licensee. Licensee shall
promptly pay or discharge all taxes, charges, and assessments levied upon, in respect to, or on account of
Licensee's Facilities, to prevent the same from becoming a charge or lien upon any property of Licensor,
and so that the taxes, charges, and assessments levied upon or in respect to such property shall not be
increased because of the location, construction, or maintenance of Licensee's Facilities or any
improvement, appliance, or fixture connected therewith placed upon such property, or on account of
Licensee's interest therein. Where such tax, charge, or assessment may not be separately made or assessed
to Licensee but shall be included in the assessment of the property of Licensor, then Licensee shall pay to
Licensor an equitable proportion of such taxes determined by the value of Licensee's property upon
property of Licensor as compared with the entire value of such property.
C. As set forth in the "FLAGGING" Section of this Exhibit B, Licensor shall have the right,
if it so elects, to provide any Safety Measures Licensor deems necessary for the safety of Licensor's
operations and trackage during Licensee's or its contractor's construction, maintenance, modification,
reconstruction, repair, renewal, revision, relocation, or removal of Licensee's Facilities, including, but not
limited to supervision, inspection, and flagging services. In the event Licensor provides such Safety
Measures, Licensor shall submit an itemized invoice to Licensee's notice recipient listed in the
"NOTICES" Article of this Agreement. Licensee shall pay to Licensor the total amount listed on such
invoice within thirty (30) days of Licensee's receipt of such invoice.
Section 8. MODIFICATIONS TO LICENSEE'S FACILITIES.
A. This grant is subject to Licensoe's safe and efficient operation of its railroad, and
continued use and improvement of Railroad Property (collectively, "Railroad's Use"). Accordingly,
Licensee shall, at its sole cost and expense, modify, reconstruct, repair, renew, revise, relocate, or remove
(individually, "Modification", or collectively, "Modifications") all or any portion of Licensee's Facilities
as Licensor may designate or identify, in its sole discretion, (i) in the furtherance of Railroad's Use, or
(ii) as is necessary to ensure safe and reliable maintenance and operation of the facilities of Licensor
and/or its tenants because of interference from Licensee's Facilities.
B. Upon any Modification of all or any portion of Licensee's Facilities to another location
on Railroad Property, Licensor and Licensee shall execute a Supplemental Agreement to this Wireline
Agreement to document the Modification(s) to Licensee's Facilities on Railroad Property. If the
Modifications result in Licensee's Facilities moving off of Railroad Property, this Agreement will
terminate upon Licensee's completion of such Modification(s) and all requirements contained within the
