that the rights and obligations of the parties under the lease shall continue unchanged, and
Landlord shall not make any adjustment of any payments due from Tenant under the Lease.

RE: Lease Agreement Between City of Sebastian and PrimeCo Personal

As discussed during our telephone conversation of several days age, enclosed please find
three (3) copies of an Amendment to the above lease covering the PrimeCo phones and
air time. Please forward these amendments to the City Manager for his signature, and
return them to me at your earliest convenience. Also enclosed is a Business Order Form
which needs to be filled out and returned to me.
Upon receipt of the signed documents, I will send you the phones, and service will
commence.

Re: PrimeCo Cell Phone Contracts

Web: www.sebastianpd.org
Attached, for your signature, are copies of an addendum offered by
PrimeCo to their existing lease agreement between our City and
their company. They have now apparently decided to honor their
promise of free cell phones and discounted local service, as
offered by their agent, Charles Hereford, when he negotiated the
tower space lease. PrimeCo has offered 5 digital cell phones with
300 local minutes each, on the PrimeCo system, at no cost to the
City. Calls anywhere in Florida are considered local and are
included in the 300 minute allotments. These phones and service
will be supplied in addition to the annual rental payments already
agreed to for the life of the original lease agreement. We will
apparently only be charged for out of state long distance calls or
use of the phones outside of Florida, which would probably be very
rare.
In your consideration of where these new digital phones will be
assigned, I request that some be exchanged for some currently used
by this department. We have at least 3 existing non -digital cell
phones that are consistently and justifiably used over their
allotted time limits and the basic $15 per month service charge.
Costs on these phones are usually $40 to $50 per month. It would
save the City money to move the $15 per month phones, some with 60
local minutes per month and some with 100 minutes per month, to
areas wherein they would be used less, and move the PrimeCo phones
to the higher use areas. Of course, the existing funding we have
for each of these phones ($15 per month, each) would also be
transferred with the phone. Also, the PrimeCo phones are digital
which greatly improves their privacy and security.
Your c sideration will be appreciated.
