1. Agreement
This is an agreement between S&P Communications (hereinafter
called "HighSpeedTexas") and you (hereinafter called “Customer”)
to provide HighSpeedTexas Internet Service ("the Service").
By establishing an account or using the Services or equipment,
Customer agrees to be bound by this Agreement and to use the Service
in compliance with S&P Communications Acceptable Use Policy.
2. Term
The term of the lease shall commence on the first day of the month
following the date the Service is available for use and shall continue
until the end of the agreed upon term. The initial term of this
agreement shall be the greater of ninety (90) days or the term
set down in the Service Contract signed by Customer upon installation.
This Agreement will automatically renew for subsequent ninety (90)
day terms after the end of the initial term unless Customer notifies
HighSpeedTexas, in writing, at least thirty (30) days in advance
of the expiration of the current term that Customer intends to
cancel the Service. In the event of damage or destruction of the
tower or loss by HighSpeedTexas of the right to continue use of
the antenna site, HighSpeedTexas shall have the right to relocate
the antenna system. However, should HighSpeedTexas be unable to

In the event of such changes, Customer may cancel this agreement
upon the effective date of the rate change with thirty (30) days
notice. Current rates may be obtained from the website http://www.highspeedtexas.com
or by calling (210) 892-4478.
3. Service Performance
The Service can vary depending on location, signal quality, Internet
traffic, CPU speed, operating system configuration and other
factors beyond the control of HighSpeedTexas. HighSpeedTexas
provides the service on a "best effort" basis and
does not guarantee throughput speeds or latency levels. HighSpeedTexas
shall provide the Customer a service connection in accordance
with the pricing and terms described on the Order Form. A service
connection is deemed established when the customer is able
to access services. HighSpeedTexas and Customer acknowledge
that if the service connection cannot be established at time
of installation, the contract agreement is not in effect.
4. Equipment
With exception of equipment specifically sold to customer and
accompanied by a bill of sale or invoice stating such sale,
HighSpeedTexas retains ownership of all equipment provided
to customer as part of the Service. If the Customer is not
the owner of the premises, Customer MUST secure the owners
permission in writing that we may install such equipment as
necessary and that we may remove said equipment at the termination
of service (a usable example letter can be found at http://www.highspeedtexas.com/ARW.doc
Upon cancellation, Customer agrees that HighSpeedTexas or its
representatives have the right to collect such equipment during
normal business hours (8:00AM-5:00PM Monday-Friday). If these
times are not acceptable or special arrangements are required,
it is Customer’s responsibility to contact HighSpeedTexas
at (210) 892-4478 within two (2) business days of cancellation
to arrange for removal of equipment. Failing to arrange for
or refusal to allow removal of equipment will result in billing
and collections to recover then entire retail cost of equivalent
new equipment as it stands on the day of cancellation.
5. Roof Rights and Roof Access
When service provided is described as “wireless”,
Customer acknowledges that in order to provide the service, HighSpeedTexas
must install an antenna on the roof of the installation location.
In addition, HighSpeedTexas must run cable between the antenna
and the installation demarc. The Customer is responsible for
securing use of the roof as well as right of way between the
antenna and the Customer’s premises. Customer is also responsible
for providing 24-hour access to the roof and the right of way
for the purposes of network repair, maintenance, upgrades, and
additions. In cases where Customer has ownership of the roof
of roof tights, the Customer grants the right to service other
roofs, building, or customer from the installation location roof
for the life of this Agreement and/or service, whichever is longer.
If and when Customer terminates service, if HighSpeedTexas is
providing services to other roofs, building, or customer from
the installation location roof, the former customer if herby
deemed to have granted the rights to continue use of the installation
roof at the then current market rates and to service other roofs,
building or customer from the installation location roof for
the life of this Agreement and/or service, whichever is longer.

used in providing Service to replace, repair or perform maintenance
on equipment. Customer is required to provide access to equipment
during normal business hours. Customer is responsible for providing
all access, rights-of-way, power, and environment conditions
necessary for proper installation, operation and support of
equipment associated with Service.
7. Installation Waiver of Liability

not be held liable for damage incurred during the installation,
repair, maintenance, or removal of any equipment or software
associated with Service.
8. Voice Services
Customer acknowledges and agrees that the routing and functionality
of the 911 Service may be different than those provided through
traditional 911 services, depending on location. Customer further
acknowledges and agrees that 911 Services will not be available
to the Customer and HighSpeedTexas shall have no liability
to Customer or any third party for failure to provide 911 Services
to the Customer in the event of (i) assignment of voice service
to a different location than the installation address; (ii)
outage, degradation or other disruption of power at customer
installation location; (iii) outage, degradation or other disruption
of the customer broadband Internet connection; or (iv) disconnection
of customer service. This document serves as a written acknowledgement
of such limitations. It also further serves as a release of
HighSpeedTexas and all underlying providers for any and all
claims arising out of the failure of 911 Service. Customer
shall advise, in writing, all end users of Voice Services of
such limitations and shall provide HighSpeedTexas of all such
notices and a certification that notices have gone to all end
