The guideline from the FCC OFfice oF Engineering and Technology is Bulletin 65 ("OET Bulle#in 65"j, Evatuating Comp(iance with FCC Guidelines for Numan Exposure to Radio FrequencyFJectromagnetic Fiefds, Ediiion 47-Qf, published August 1997. Since 1996 the FCC periodically review5 these rules and regulations as per fheir congressional mandaie. FCC regulations define twa 5eparate tiers of exposure limits: Occupational or "Controlled environment" and General Public or "Uncontrolled environment". The General Public limits are generally five times more conseroative or restrictive than the Occupational limit. These iimits apply to accesslbfe oreas where workers or fhe general public may be exposed to Radio Frequency (RFj electromagnetic �+elds. Occupational or Controlled limits apply in situations in which persons are exposed as a cansequence of their errtployment and where those persons exposed have been made fully aware of the potential For exposure and can exercise control over lheir expasure. An area is considered a Controlled environment when access is limited to these aware personnel. Typical criteria are restricted access (i.e. locked or alarmed doors, barriers, etc.} to the areas where antennas are located coupled with proper RF waming signage. A site wiih Controlled environments is evaluated with Occupational I:mits. All other areas are considered Uncontrolled env(ronments. If a site has no access controls or no RF waming signage it is evaluated with General Public limits. The theoretical modeling of the RF electromagnetfc fields has been performed in accordance with OET Bulletin 65, ihe Maximum Permis5ible Expasure (MPEJ limits utilized in this analysis are outlined �n the following diagram: FCC Llmlts for Maxlmum Permissible �zposure (MPEj Pl.naw.w Eqdv.lmt Pmr� omslry 1Q6Q — ---Otcup� �tal — - General Public � 1�p . _ _..-- -_ _ E � \ E10 --...__-- �__� _..... _----- -- _-- y \ t � � �,. ___.-___--�_ ._./ � � / s`----� n°, D.1 __ -- ---. _ - 0.01 - ______- ____--- __ _ 10 10d 1,000 10.000 Fnqueney (MHzj Limits fo� Occupational/Contralled Exposure (MPE) Z00 N.

General Maintenance W�Ic: Any maintenance personnel required to work immediately in front of antennas and / or in areas indicated as above 1�°6 af the Occupational MPE limits should coordinate with the wirefess operators to disabte lransmitters during their work activit(es. Tralnina and QuallficaNan Veriftcation: All personnel occessing areas indicated as exceeding the General Papulation MPE limits should have a basic understanding of EME awareness and RF Safefiy pracedures when working around firansmitting antennas. Awareness training increases a workers understanding to potential RF exposure scenarios. Awareness can be achieved in a number of ways (e.g. videos, Farmak classroorn lecfure or intemet based covrses) . Phvstcal Acceas Conhol; Access restrictions to transmitting antennas locafions is the primary element in a site safety plan. Examples of access restrictions are as fb��OWS: • Locked door or gate • Alarmed door • Locked ladder access • RestrictNe Barrier at antenna (e.g. Chain ifnk with posted RF SignJ RF Siqnage: Everyone should obey all posted signs at all times. RF signs play an important role in properly waming a worker prior to entering into a potential RF Exposure area. A u e a t nn are : Due to the nature of telecommunications transmissions, an antenna transmits intermittently. Always assume an antenna is transmitting. Never stop in front of an antenna. If you have to pass by an an#enna, move through as quickly and safely as possible thereby reducing any exposure to a minimum. Mainiain a 3 foot clearance�ram all antenr� There is a direct correlation between the strength of an EME field and the distonce from the fransmitting antenna. 'ifie f�xther away from an antenna, the lower the corresponding EME field is.

The madeling is a worst case scenario assuming a du#y cycle of 100%a for each transmitting antenna at full power. This analysis is based on one of two acces5 cantroi criferia: General Public criteria means the access to the site is uncontrolled and anyone can gain access. Occupational criterip means the access is restricted and only properly trained indivicluals can gain access to the antenna locations. 200 N.

These diagrams use modeling as prescribed in OET Bulletin 65 and assumptions detailed in Appendix B. The key at the bottom of each diagram indicates iF percentages displayed are referenced to FCC General Population Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPEj limits. Color coding an the diagram is as fallows: • Gray represents areas predicted to be at 5% of the MPE limits, or belaw. • Green represents areas predicted to be belween S% and 100i'a of the MPE limits. • Blue represents areas predicted to be between 100% and 500� of the MPE limits. • Yellow represenis areas predicted to be between 5009'o and 50�3'0 of the MPE limits. • Red areas indicated predicted levels greater fhan 5000% of the MPE limits. General Population diagrams are specified when an area is accessible to the public; i.e. personnel that do not meet Occupationol or RF Safety trained criteria, could gain access. If trained occupational personnei require occess fo areas that are delineated as Blue or above 1009b of !he limit, Sitesafe recommends that they utilize the proper personal pro#ection equipment {RF monitars), coordinate with the carriers to reduce or shutdown power, or make real-time power density measurements with the appropriate power density meter to determine rea!-time MPE levels. This wil) allow the personnel to ensure that their work area is within exposure limits. The key at the bottom also indicates the level or height of the modeling wifih respect to the main level. The origin is typically referenced to the main rooftop level, or ground level for a structure without access to the antenna level. For example: Averoge from 0 feet above ta b feef above origin and Average from 20 feet obove to 26 feet above origin The fir�t indicates modeling at the main rooffop (or ground} levek averaged over 6 feet. The second indicates modeling at a higher level (possibly a penthouse level) of 20 feet averaged over 6 feet. 200 N.

Due to the complexity of some wireless sites, Sitesafe perfarmed this anolysis and created this reporf utilizing best industry practices and due difgence. Sitesafe cannot be held accountable or responsible for anomalies or discrepancies due ta actual site conditians (i.e., mislabeling of antennas or equipment, inaccessible cable runs, inaccessible antennas or equipment, etc.j or inFormation or data supplied by T-Mobile, fhe site manager, or their affiliates, subcontractors or assigns. Sitesafe has provided computer generated modei(sj in thi5 Site Compliance Repo�t to shaw opproximote dimensions of the 5'ste, and the model is included to assi5t the reader of the comptiance report to vi5ualize the site area, and io provide supporting documentation far SitesaFe's recommendations. Sitescafe may note in the Site Compliance Report any adverse physical conditions, such as needed repairs, observecf during the survey of the subject property or that Sitesofe became oware af during the noRnal research involved in performing this survey. Sitesafe will not be responsible for any such conditions that do exist or for any engineering or testing that might be required to discover whether such conditions exist. Because Sitesafe is not an expert in the fi�ld of inechanical engineering or building maintenance, the Site Compliance Report must not be considered a structural or physical engineering repart.

Appendix B-- Assumptions and Definffions Genera[ Model Assumptions In this site compliance report, it is assurned lhat all antennas are operating at full power at all times. Software modeling was performed for all transmitting antennas located on the site. Sitesafe has further assumed a 100% duty cycle and maximum radiated power. The site has been modeled with these assumptions ta show the maximum RF energy density. Sitesafe believes this to be a warst case analysis, based on best available data. Areas modeled to predict emissians greater than l OQ96 of the appiicable MPE level may not actually occur, but are shown as a wo�t-case prediction that could be realized real time. Sitesafe belisves these areas to be safe for entry by occupationally trainec! personnel util'rzing approprtate personal protective equipment (in most cases, a personal monitor). Thus, at any time, if power density measurements we�e made, we believe the real- time measuremenfs would indicate levels below those depicted in the RF emission diogram(sj in ihis reporf. By modeling in ihis way, Sitesafe has conservalively shown exclusion areas -- areas that should not be entered without the use of a personal monitor, car�ers reducing pawer, or performing real-time measurements to indicate real-time exposure levels. Use af Generic Antennos For the purposes of this report, the use of "Generic" as an antenna model, or "Unknown" for an operator means the inforrnation about a carcier, their FCC license and/or antenna information was not provided and could not be obtained while on site. In the event of unknown information, Sitesafe will use our indusiry specific knowledge of equipment, antenna models, and transmit powet to model the site. If more speci#ic informatian can be obtained for the unknown measurement criieria, Sitesafe recommends remodeling of the site utilizing the more complete and accurate data. Infarmation about similar facilities is used when the service is identified and associated with a particular antenna. If no infarrnation is available regarding the transmitting service associated with an unidentified antenna, using the antenna manufacturer's published data regarding the antenna's physical charr�cteristics makes more conservative assumptions. Where the frequency is unknown, Sitesafe uses the closest �requency in the antenna's resnge ihat corresponds to the highest Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE}, resulting in a canservative analysis. 200 N.

AppendUc C- Rules 8� Regulations Expfanatlon of Applicable Rules and Regulations The FCC has set forth guidelines in OEi Bulietin 65 for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields. Specific regulations regarding this topic are listed in Part l, Subpart I, of Ttle 47 in the Code of Federal Regulations. Currently, there are two d'+fferent levels of MPE - General Public MPE and Occupafional MPE. An individual classified as Occupotional can be defined as an individual who has received appropriate RF training and meets the cond'stions outlined below. General Public is defined as anyone who does not meet ihe conditions of being Occupational. FCC and OSHA Rules and Regulations define campliance in terms of total exposure to total RF energy, regardless oF location of or proximity to the sources of energy. It is the respon5ibility of all licensees to ensure these guidelines are maintained at all times. It is the ongoing responsibility of all liceruees composing the site to maintain ongoing compliance with FCC rules and regulati�ns. Individuai licensees that contribute less than 5� MPE to any total area oui of compliance are not responsible for coReclive actions. OSHA has adapted and enforces the FCC's exposure guidelines. A building owner or site manager can use this reporf as part of an overall RF Health and Safety Policy. It is important for building owners/site managers to identify areas in excess of the Genera! Population MPE and ensure that only persons qualified os Occupational are granted access to those areas. Occupational Environment Explained The FCC de�nition of Occupational exposure limits appiy to pe�sons who: • are exposed to RF energy as a consequence of their employment; • have been made aware of the possibility of exposure; and • can exe�cise control over their exposure. 4SHA guideline5 go further to state ihat persons must complete RF Safety Awareness training and must be trained in the use of appropriate personal protective equipment. In order to con5ider this site an Occupational Environment, the site must be controlled to prevent access by any individuals classifed as the General Public. Compliance is also maintained when any non-accupational individuals (the General Public} are prevented fram accessing areas indicated as Red or Yellow in the attached RF Emissions diagram. In additEan, a person must be aware of #he RF environrnent into which they are entering. This can be accomplished by an RF Safety Awareness class, and by appropriote written documentation svch as this Site Compliance Report. All T-Mobile employess who require access to this site must complete RF Safety Awareness training and mu5t be trained in the use of apprapriate personal protective equipment. 20Q N.
