Sec. 27.1310 Network sharing agreement.
The relationship between the Upper 700 MHz D Block licensee, the Public
Safety Broadband Licensee, and related entities as the Commission may
require or allow will be governed by the Network Sharing Agreement (NSA) and
such other separate agreements as the Commission may require or allow that
are negotiated and entered into between the parties. The NSA must, at a
minimum, include the following terms:
(a) All of the substantive rights and obligations of the parties relating to
the NSA, as established by the Commission concerning the 700 MHz
Public/Private Partnership.
(b) Network specifications that comply with Sec. 27.1305.
(c) The definition of “emergency” for purposes of emergency priority access.
(d) All service fees to be imposed for services to public safety, including
fees for normal network service and fees for priority access to the D Block
spectrum in an emergency.
(e) A detailed build-out schedule consistent with Sec. 27.1327, including
coverage of major highways and interstates, as well as incorporated
communities with a population in excess of 3,000.
(f) The right of the Public Safety Broadband Licensee to determine and
approve the specifications of public safety equipment used on the network
and the right to purchase its own subscriber equipment from any vendor it
chooses, to the extent such specifications and equipment are consistent with
reasonable network control requirements established in the NSA.
(g) The Upper 700 MHz D Block licensee must offer at least one handset
suitable for public safety use that includes a seamlessly integrated
satellite solution pursuant to the terms, conditions, and timeframes set
forth in the NSA.
(h) Any major modification of the terms of the NSA, related agreements or
documents, or such other agreements as the Commission may require or allow
must be submitted to the Commission for prior approval. All other
modifications must be submitted to the Chiefs of the Wireless
Telecommunications Bureau and the Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau
for prior approval.
(i) The NSA shall require, in a separate agreement, the granting of an
irrevocable and assignable right of first refusal to purchase the network
assets if and whenever such assets are otherwise to be sold and an
irrevocable and assignable option in favor of the Public Safety Broadband
Licensee to purchase the network and all network assets if and whenever the
Upper 700 MHz D Block license is cancelled or terminated, by reason of
default or for any other reason, for a consideration equivalent to the fair
market value of the tangible and intangible assets sold. This right and
option shall be senior to, and have priority over, any other right, claim,
or interest in or to the network or the network assets. The NSA shall also
include a fair market valuation methodology to determine the fair market
value of the shared wireless broadband network assets.
(j) The NSA must have a term, not to exceed 10 years from February 17, 2009,
that coincides with the terms of the Upper 700 MHz D Block license and the
Public Safety Broadband License.
