(2) Technical Standards. The System shall at all times meet or exceed the technical <br /> standards established by the FCC as they may be amended from time to time and shall be <br /> operated so as to minimize disruption of signal to Subscribers. The System specifications are <br /> outlined in Exhibit C for information purposes. <br /> (3) Special Testing. City may require special testing of a location or locations within <br /> the System if there is a particular matter of controversy or unresolved complaints pertaining to <br /> such location(s). Demand for such special tests may be made on the basis of complaints received <br /> or other evidence indicating an unresolved controversy or noncompliance. Such tests shall be <br /> limited to the particular matter in controversy or unresolved complaints. The City shall endeavor <br /> to so arrange its request for such special testing so as to minimize hardship or inconvenience to <br /> Grantee or to the Subscribers caused by such testing. Before ordering such tests, Grantee shall <br /> be afforded thirty (30) days to correct problems or complaints upon which tests were ordered. <br /> The City shall meet with Grantee prior to requiring special tests to discuss the need for such and, <br /> if possible, visually inspect those locations which are the focus of concern. If, after such <br /> meetings and inspections, City wishes to commence special tests and the thirty (30) days have <br /> elapsed without correction of the matter in controversy or unresolved complaints, the tests shall <br /> be conducted by a qualified engineer selected by City. In the event that special testing is <br /> required by City to determine the source of technical difficulties, the cost of said testing shall be <br /> borne by the Grantee if the testing reveals the source of the technical difficulty to be within <br /> Grantee's control. If the testing reveals the difficulties to be caused by factors which are beyond <br /> Grantee's control then the cost of said test shall be borne by City. <br /> (4) FCC Reports. Upon request, the results of tests required to be filed by Grantee <br /> with the FCC shall also be copied to City within ten (10) days of the conduct of the date of the <br /> test. <br /> (5) Emergency Alert Capability. At all times during the term of this Franchise, <br /> Grantee shall provide and maintain an Emergency Alert System (EAS) consistent with applicable <br /> federal law and regulations including 47 C.F.R., Part 11, and any Minnesota State Emergency <br /> Alert System requirements. The City may identify authorized emergency officials for activating <br /> the EAS consistent with the Minnesota State Emergency Statewide Plan ("EAS Plan"). The City <br /> may also develop a local plan containing methods of EAS message distribution, subject to <br /> Applicable Laws and the EAS Plan. Nothing in this section is intended to expand Grantee's <br /> obligations beyond that which is required by the EAS Plan and Applicable Law. <br /> (6) Stand-by Power. Grantee shall provide 20,000 Watt standby power-generating <br /> capacity at the Headend. Grantee shall maintain standby power system supplies, rated for at <br /> least two and one-half(2.5) hours duration at all optical Node locations in the distribution <br /> network. <br /> (7) Parental Control Lock. Grantee shall provide, for sale or lease, to Subscribers, <br /> upon request, a parental control locking device or digital code that permits inhibiting the video <br /> and audio portions of any Channels offered by Grantee. <br /> 171276 13 <br />
