i i i e. No rights shall pass to Grantee by implication. Without limiting the foregoing, by way of example and not limitation, this Franchise shall not include or be a substitute for: i. Any other permit or authorization required for the privilege of transacting and carrying on a business within the City that may be required by the ordinances and laws of the City; ii. Any permit, agreement, or authorization required by the City for Right-of- Way users in connection with operations on or in Rights-of-Way or public property including, by way of example and not limitation, street cut permits; or iii. Any permits or agreements for occupying any other property of the City or private entities to which access is not specifically granted by this Franchise including, without limitation, permits and agreements for placing devices on poles, in conduits or in or on other structures. f. This Franchise is intended to convey limited rights and interests only as to those Rights-of-Way in which the City has an actual interest. It is not a warranty of title or interest in any Right-of-Way; it does not provide the Grantee with any interest in any particular location within the Right-of-Way; and it does not confer rights other than as expressly provided in the grant hereof. g. This Franchise does not authorize or prohibit Grantee to provide telecommunications service or other services, or to construct, operate or maintain telecommunications facilities. This Franchise is not a bar to imposition of any lawful conditions on Grantee with respect to telecommunications, whether similar, different or the same as the conditions specified herein. This Franchise does not relieve Grantee of any obligation it may have to obtain from the City an authorization to provide telecommunications services or other services, or to construct, operate or maintain telecommunications facilities, or relieve Grantee of its obligation to comply with any such authorizations that may be lawfully required. 2. Grant of Nonexclusive Authority. The City reserves the right to grant additional franchises or similar authorizations to provide video programming services via Cable Systems or similar wireline systems located in the public Rights-of-Way. It is not the City's intent to treat competitors in a discriminatory manner and to advantage one competitor over another by regulation. If the City grants such an additional franchise or similar authorization to use the public rights of way to provide such services and Grantee believes the City has done so on terms materially more favorable than the Material Obligations (defined below) under this Franchise, then the provisions of this paragraph will apply. 6
