Building Operations: Accounting
As required by your lease, rent is due on or before the first day of each month. Rent will be billed to you by
Cushman & Wakefield. Late rent is subject to late rent charges and interest in accordance with your lease.
Every Tenant will receive a monthly rent statement; however, the obligation to pay rent does not depend on
receipt of a statement and monthly rent must be paid whether a statement is received or not. In order to
insure that your account is properly credited, your check for rent should include only rent and no other
payments. Payments for other services should be made by additional check(s).
Your checks for rent and other charges should be made payable to:
PHILADELPHIA LIBERTY PLACE, L.P.
and mailed to:
Philadelphia Liberty Place, L.P.
24407 Network Place.
Chicago, IL 60673-1407
Your lease specifies when late charges and interest may be imposed. For administrative uniformity and
without waiving its rights under the lease, the Landlord shall consider as paid late and subject to late
charges and interest, all rent not received at the above address by the tenth (10th) day of each month.
USE AND OCCUPANCY TAX (U & O TAX)
Every commercial landlord in Philadelphia is required to collect this tax and remit it to the City which uses it
for the school system. A statement for U & O Taxes is sent by Cushman & Wakefield to each Tenant once.
You will not receive another statement unless there is a change in the U & O rate. This statement shows the
U & O Taxes to be remitted monthly.
Each month payment should be made by separate check to Cushman & Wakefield to insure that your U & O
account is properly credited.
SEND PAYMENT TO:
Philadelphia Liberty Place, L.P.
Wachovia Bank N.A.
P.O. Box 8500-7565
Philadelphia, PA 19178-7565
U & O Taxes must be paid by the 10th of every month. If payment is not received by that date, the Tenant
will be reported as delinquent to the City by Cushman & Wakefield. The City will then impose penalties
directly to the Tenant.
For the purposes of U & O Tax collection, the City requires that each tenant furnish its Mercantile License
Number to Cushman & Wakefield.
The U & O Tax is not an operating expense of the Building: the Landlord is obliged by law to collect it for the
City. The U & O Tax is calculated by the multiplication of the current U & O rate per rentable square foot per
year. Divided by 12 months, this becomes the rate per month. This rate is multiplied by the Tenant’s rented
area for the Tenant’s U & O tax per month.

Building Security: Overview
Security in the Leased Premises
Security in the office is the responsibility of each Tenant. Building Guards provide surveillance in the
Building Lobby, continually man the Security Desk, investigate specific security incidents, and secure the
public entrances to the Building after Standard Building Hours and perform guard tour inspections of all
common areas and elevator lobbies during non-business hours. Security services are performed 24 hours
every day, including holidays.
Surveillance in the Building Lobby
In addition to the Guard at the Security Desk, other Guards continually patrol the Building Lobby during
normal business hours. All Guards are in radio contact with each other and with the Security Desk. One of
the primary functions of these Guards is the identification of those people that appear to have no legitimate
purpose in the Building. While every effort is made to enforce thorough security in the Building Lobby at all
times, it must be remembered that the Lobby is a public place during normal business hours, that the
Building Guards are not police and do not have police powers, and not every “undesirable” person entering
the Building will appear as such.
Cooperation between Tenants and Building Management
The most effective security is obtained when there is a spirit of cooperation between Building occupants,
Building Management and the Guard Staff. Every stranger, circumstance or situation that “doesn’t look
right” should be reported to Security. The Guards will respond. Building Management at One Liberty Place
is committed to providing a very high degree of visible, responsive and effective security. Working together,
Tenants and Building Management can make the message heard on the street: One Liberty Place is not an
“easy building” for the would-be thief to operate in.
Security Desk
A Building Guard is continually on duty at this location. This Guard is in radio contact with the other Guards,
with Building Engineers and with Building Management. If you have a security problem or see someone or
something suspicious, call the Security Desk at 215-851-9001 immediately. There is never any reason to
feel foolish because “it might be a false alarm.” When in doubt, CALL THE SECURITY DESK.
Visitor Sign-In Desk
The Visitor sign-in desk on the ground floor is the point for all visitors to register. It is manned by a Building
Guard Monday – Friday 7:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. The visitor sign-in desk phone number is 267-519-5119.
Building Security: After Hours Access
Access to One Liberty Place during Security Hours (7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. Monday through Friday and from
7:00 p.m. Friday until 7:00 a.m. Monday morning) is controlled by a computerized access system and photo
access cards.
The access card is used as follows:
The Card Holder approaches the Security Desk and badges the card at the “IN” proximity card reader built
into the Desk. The Card Holder’s name, firm, date, time and a “signed in” message are automatically stored
on the Card Access System server. If a Card Holder has a problem with the access card, i.e. it is an invalid
card (it is voided or deleted from the system for some reason); the Guard will receive a printed message on
the printer at the Security Desk. He can then display the card on the card access system monitor to check
the status of the card. However, any changes that have to be made to an access card’s status (access
level, valid, invalid, etc.) will have to be made through the Building Management Office. The Guard does not
have the capability to make changes to access cards.
The Card Holder approaches the appropriate elevator bank and badges the card at the proximity card
reader in any elevator in that bank (all elevators are equipped with card readers). The Card Holder then
selects the floor for which he or she is authorized. The elevator will only respond to a destination for which
the card has been authorized. Upon leaving the office, the Card Holder simply summons the elevator in the
normal fashion, enters and automatically returns to the Ground Floor.
The Card Holder then approaches the Security Desk and again badges the card at the “OUT” proximity
reader. All of the information mentioned above is again stored on the Card Access System server.
Signing In / Out and Record Keeping
Although there is nothing physically to require a Card Holder to badge in or out at the Security Desk readers,
it is a firm Building policy that all after-hours users of the Building do so. We request that all Tenants
cooperate with this policy by requiring their employees to log in and out every time they enter or leave the
Building during Security Hours.
Since all sign in/out activity is recorded on the Card Access System server, the information may be retrieved
and printed out for any Tenant wanting to know which of its employees were in the Building and for what
period during Security Hours.
Building Security: Building Access
Normal Building Hours
For the purposes of Building Security, the normal Building hours are 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through
Friday. During all other times, (Security Hours), each individual must use a tenant access card to first log in
or out at the Security Desk and to travel to tenant floors via the card access elevators.
For the purposes of heating and cooling occupied space, the normal Building hours are 8:00 a.m. to 6:00
p.m. Monday through Friday and 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Saturday, except holidays. No service is provided on
the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King’s Birthday, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor
Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.
Visitor Access
One Liberty Place has in place a Visitor Management System to allow tenants to pre-register their guests to
the building. This system is state of the art technology used to better control and expedites visitor access;
however, it should be recognized no system alone can guaranty or assure absolute access control. This is
particularly true in buildings with diverse visitor traffic and retail establishments such as One Liberty Place.
This system should be viewed as an additional enhancement to a continual program of security and safety
aimed at making your tenancy more comfortable, productive and safe.
It is not mandatory for tenants to pre-register visitors; however, we strongly suggest it as visitors who are
not pre-registered will not be allowed access until security verifies they are expected by a tenant. Building
Management does not wish to restrict a tenant's ability to conduct business at any time; however, we do not
want to grant unrestricted access to a tenant's floor.
Tenants can access the Visitor Management System through the Building's website at
www.onelibertyplace.net. In order to log on to the System, tenant employees must first be assigned user
names and passwords by Building Management.
Building Security: Building Staff
The Building Guards DO NOT have keys to the Tenants’ offices and therefore cannot assist with tenant
entry. Each night the Cleaning Supervisor takes the cleaning floor master keys out of locked storage and
distributes them to the cleaning crew. At the end of the cleaning shift, all keys are accounted for and are
again placed in locked storage. All packages carried by cleaning personnel leaving the Building are checked
by the Building Guards nightly.
The Building Staff is uniformed. Guards wear dark blue suits with the One Liberty Place emblem. Day
porters wear white shirts with the One Liberty emblem and dark blue trousers. Engineers and maintenance
men wear blue shirts with the One Liberty emblem and dark blue trousers. In the summer, both day porters
and engineers wear dark blue summer shirts with the One Liberty logo. Night cleaning personnel are in blue
uniforms issued by the janitorial contractor.
If you do not recognize someone claiming to “work for the Building”, do not allow the person access to your
offices. Ask the person to wait and call the Security Desk at 215-851-9001.
The Building Management Office will not send a contractor or vendor to your offices unescorted. Therefore,
you should challenge anyone who comes to your offices claiming to have been sent by Building
Management to “look at something”.
Building Security: Deliveries
Loading Dock Sign-In Desk
Contractors and delivery personnel entering the loading dock must sign in with the Guard at the sign-in desk
in the loading dock. The Building has a Visitor Management System at the dock sign-in desk. Each visitor
must show photo identification and the guard will either scan the person’s license into the computer or take
their photograph and issue a temporary photo visitor badge. It is up to the visitor/delivery person whether
the guard scans their license or they have their photo taken. The only information scanned from a license is
the person’s name and photograph. The system is not set up to scan any other information.
The desk is manned by a Building Guard 6:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. Monday – Friday, however, delivery hours
are 7:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. Dock sign-in desk phone number is 267-519-5120.
Building Security: General Office Security
Basic Security Awareness
We strongly suggest that each Tenant make its employees aware of the importance of being security
conscious at all times. This is the sort of message that people can forget and it has to be repeated from time
to time. We offer the following basic “rules”:
1. One person should be designated to secure the office door at night. This is too often a case of: “I
thought you were going to do it.” Do not leave the office door unlocked for the night cleaners: they
have keys.
2. Special care should be exercised during those times best suited for office theft – just after opening in
the morning and just hours before closing at night – when the office is lightly occupied and a potential
thief can gain access without being confronted by office workers.
3. Challenge strangers in your offices or on your floor. The simple question: “Can I help you?” “You look
lost” can often elicit a response that is a tip off on whether the person’s business is legitimate. The
stock-in-trade response from most office building sneak-thieves is “I’m looking for a job” or “I’m
looking for the Personnel Department”. If you have any doubts, please call the Security Desk or the
Building Management Office immediately.
4. The location of employees’ cash is too often as follows:
Women: pocketbook under a desk, in a bottom drawer of desk or in the bottom of a file cabinet.
Men: Wallet left in jacket hanging on a hook on back of a door.
Even the run-of-the-mill sneak thief, perhaps in the guise of delivery man, etc. knows these
locations. Don’t get stung.
5. The Reception Area is often a Tenant’s only “line of defense”. Don’t leave it unattended.
6. Secretaries are often the keepers of the office keys but they may keep them where any novice thief
can find them: in their unlocked desk drawers.
7. All keys and access cards should be collected from employees leaving the Tenant’s employment. If
keys or access cards are lost, notify Building Management.
8. Special care should be taken to secure calculators, personal computers, VCR’s and other hi-tech
electronic items: these are very attractive items both for personal use, and “the street market”. Laptop
computers and small electronics are especially vulnerable since they are so easy to conceal.
9. Do not enter an elevator that has a suspicious person in it. Wait for the next elevator. If you are in an
elevator and need assistance, press the yellow emergency alarm button.
10. Do not allow persons into your offices who claim to have been “sent by the Building.” We will not
send contractors, etc. to your offices unescorted. If you do not recognize someone claiming to be a
Building employee, call the Building Management Office or the Security Desk.
Building Security: Key and Lock Policy
Two keys per lock are provided to each Tenant at the time of initial occupancy. Additional keys can be
provided by the Building on a unit cost basis. Tenants cannot have keys duplicated outside the Building.
The duplicate key will be made from your copy, in other words, a copy from a copy – and this may damage
your locks. The Building makes all keys from originals.
Do not change any locks without first notifying the Building Management Office. Every time your office lock
is changed, the new lock has to be keyed to the great grand master and cleaning master key for your floor. If
not, your space cannot be cleaned.
Guards do not have keys to Tenant premises; therefore, always remember to carry your keys with you.
All women’s toilet rooms on multi-tenant floors are kept locked for security reasons. It is recommended that
they be kept locked by the Tenants on single-tenant floors as well.
Photo Access Cards
Each Tenant should order photo access cards for each of its employees. The employees are required to
show their cards to security during regular hours to enter the Building. After hours, the access cards must be
badged at the card readers to gain access to the Building.
There is a charge for each access card, which covers the cost of supplying the card, and all administrative
work (programming, record keeping, etc.) in connection with it. Photo access cards are issued by
appointment only. Tenant Liaisons should call the Building Management Office to schedule appointments.
Appointments are normally scheduled for Monday, Wednesday or Friday between the hours of 9:30 a.m. –
11:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.
Each access card will be programmed according to the Tenant’s instructions for a floor or group of floors.
For example, a multi-tenant floor may wish to give a particular employee access to only one floor, to several
of its floors or to all of its floors.
The Building Management Office will maintain records on all photo access cards issued: Tenant, employee
name, level of access, etc.; however, it is the Tenant’s responsibility to notify the Building Management
Office whenever a card is lost or an employee is terminated. In the case of lost card, the card access
computer will be programmed to reject this card on all subsequent attempts at entry. In the case of the
terminated employee, even though the card will be programmed to reject the card, the Tenant should
retrieve the card so it can be destroyed. It is important that Building Management receive immediate
information in this regard so that subsequent use of the access card will not be authorized.
Tenant employees who forget their access cards should report to the main security desk in the lobby where
the guard will look them up in the card access system to verify they have a valid access card in the system.
After verification, security will issue them a Visitor’s badge. If the employee does not have a valid access
card in the system, the security will have to call the tenant for verification.
Building Security: Property Removal
Tenant Package / Equipment Removal
Package/Small Equipment Passes: Each time a Tenant allows its employees, vendors or others to remove
packages and/or equipment from the Building, the Tenant must provide that person with written
authorization (a “Package Pass”) on Tenant’s letterhead. The Package Pass should identify the item(s)
being removed in reasonable detail and should be signed by an authorized person on the Approval
Signature Sheet for Package Passes so that the Building Guard can quickly verify that the removal is
legitimate. Please complete the Approval Signature Sheet and send to the Building Management Office.
Building Services: Building Signage and Directory
Building Directory:
There is a computerized directory in the main lobby. 'Tenants may have their firm name and floor as well as
the names of their employees listed. Visitors can find a tenant's location by alphabetically selecting the
Tenant's name. The guards at the Security Desk will provide assistance if necessary.
Tenant Suite Identification:
Each Tenant on a multi tenant floor shall be listed on a directory in the elevator lobby on that floor. In
addition, building-standard suite identification has been provided as part of each Tenant’s construction
package. All other signage in the common areas of the Building must have prior written approval from the
Building Management Office.
Building Services: Cleaning
Cleaning of office space will be done between 5:00 p.m. and 1:30 a.m. Monday through Friday. Cleaning
Specifications are contained in the Exhibit section of tenant leases. The Building’s daytime cleaning staff
will keep the common areas, sidewalks, elevators and washrooms clean. No service is provided on the
following holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King’s Birthday, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor
Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.
1. Any items to be disposed of that are not in a waste basket must be clearly marked “TRASH”. Do not
use waste baskets as “storage containers” for items not intended to be discarded, nor put such items
alongside trash containers. Items so placed may be removed with the nightly trash and may be
irretrievably lost.
2. Large boxes and cardboard to be discarded must be placed in the service vestibule on each floor
adjacent to the freight elevators. All moving companies, vendors, carpet installers and other tenant
contractors are responsible for removing their own trash from the Building. If the Building has to
remove furniture or trash left by a Tenant or Contractor, the Tenant will be charged for this additional
service.
3. The cleaning staff uses two types of trash bags in your trash containers in order to sort recyclables
from non-recyclables.
Clear bags are used in office waste cans. Recyclable materials such as clean office paper,
plastic water bottles, rinsed soda cans and bottles may be placed in these cans.
Black bags are used in rest rooms and kitchens. Non- recyclable materials such as wet paper,
food waste, and food containers should be placed in these cans.
4. Lamp replacement in Tenant premises is the Tenant’s responsibility. Lamp replacement can be done
by the Building Staff on a unit price basis. Please call the Building Management at (215) 851-9000 for
details.
5. Special cleaning requests such as additional cleaning, etc. can be made through the Building
Management Office which will quote on such additional cleaning services.
6. The Building cleaning staff will vacuum and spot clean carpet, however, shampooing or programs of
carpet care are the Tenant’s responsibility. The Building Management Office can provide names of
carpet cleaning contractors which service other tenants in the Building.
Window Washing
The glass revolving and swing doors in the Ground Floor Lobby will be cleaned daily. Office exterior
windows will be cleaned on floors 3 – 46 three times annually, floors 47 – 58 two times annually. Office
interior windows are cleaned once annually and each Tenant Liaison will be notified before the interior
window washing begins in the Tenant’s premises. The interior glass cleaning will be done during normal
business hours.
Building Services: Electricity
Metered Electricity
All electricity supplied to the leased premises for lighting and office equipment power is metered in the
electric closet on each floor. The electricity used is billed to the Tenant monthly by a third party meter
reading company (Energy Management Systems) at the prevailing rates of PECO Energy. As we all know,
the cost of electricity is significant; each Tenant should take steps to control this cost by shutting off all lights
and equipment when not needed. The cleaning crew has been instructed to turn off the lights after tenant
offices have been cleaned for the night.
Mechanical and Electrical Systems
1. Should you experience a problem with any of the electrical or mechanical (heating, cooling, etc.)
systems serving your premises, the Tenant Liaison should call the Building Management Office. A
Building Engineer will be sent to investigate the problem. A Building Engineer is on duty 24 hours a
day.
2. CAUTION: Never attempt to solve an electrical or mechanical problem yourself. Never touch any
electrical wiring in the walls or above the ceilings. The electrical voltages in modern office buildings
are high (a typical fluorescent light switch carries 277 volts) and are potentially very dangerous if not
handled properly. Never attempt to install a dimmer on a fluorescent light circuit: a standard dimmer
can cause a fire if used in this way.
3. HVAC System: A central fan with a cooling coil supplies cold air to Variable Air Volume (VAV) boxes
above the Tenant’s ceiling. These VAV boxes are equipped with circulating fans and are connected
by ductwork to selected fluorescent light fixtures that have air slots along the sides, and linear
diffusers above the windows. If the office space is too warm, the full amount of cold air from the
central fan is supplied to the office through the VAV box. As the office cools down the fan in the VAV
box mixes warmer air from above the ceiling with the cold air being supplied so that the air supply to
the office is tempered. In either case, the total volume of air supplied remains approximately constant
so that there is no “stuffiness”. If, in winter, the perimeter offices become too cold, electric heating
coils in the VAV boxes are energized to heat the air supply to the office.
One Liberty Place has a computerized HVAC Control System known as Direct Digital Control (DDC). This
is a totally integrated electronic system controlled and monitored by a central processing unit. Each VAV
box in the Building represents a control point and, in total, there are approximately 1400 points in use.
Control over the VAV boxes in the tenant’s office is provided by a wall-mounted “thermistor” which
continually monitors the space temperature and provides a signal to the VAV central processing unit which,
in turn, controls the operation of the VAV box. The thermistor bias settings and adjustments are made by
Building Management via the VAV central processing unit.
If your offices are too cold or hot, please call the Building Management Office.
Building Services: Elevators
One Liberty Place is equipped with state of the art electronic, computer-controlled Otis Elevonics 411
elevators. There is a total of 27 elevators in the Building:
5 Low Rise Elevators: Ground Floor and 6 through 20
1 Low Rise Elevator: Ground Floor, 6 through 20. (4th floor access is for building staff only).
1 Low Rise Shuttle Elevator: Ground Floor, (2nd floor temporarily disabled) and 3rd floor.
5 Low Mid-Rise Elevators: Ground Floor and 21 through 32.
6 High Mid-Rise Elevators: Ground Floor and 33 through 46.
5 High Rise Elevators: Ground Floor and 46 through 54.
2 High Rise Shuttles: at 54th Floor serving 54 through 61. One elevator serves 54 - 58th floors and
the other serves 54 through 61).
2 Freight Elevators: Service all floors Lower Level 2 through 57.
Full floor tenants have the option to control access to their individual floors via special programming in our
card access system. Call Building Management for details.
All of the elevators in One Liberty receive the highest quality service and preventive maintenance by a
full-time, on-site elevator service technician.

Emergency Procedures: Overview
Emergencies, both major and minor, are a part of our every day lives. We can only deal with them if we are
prepared and in control. Safety in a high-rise office building requires that all occupants be well informed of
the action to take in case of an emergency.
Emergency Procedures: Alertcast System
Building Management uses a computerized notification system called Alertcast to notify tenants of
emergencies such as bomb scares. There are two lists: one for normal business hours and one for after
normal business hours. Building Management will maintain and update the lists on a periodic basis. Tenants
should provide Building Management with a list of employees to be notified in the event of an emergency.
The Building periodically tests the system; however, you will be given advance notice prior to testing. Please
provide a direct dial number and cell phone number. Notify Building Management immediately of changes.
Please click here to access the Alertcast Form
Emergency Procedures: Bomb Threat
If your office receives a bomb threat please follow the below steps:
1. Call the Building Security immediately 215-851-9001
Follow all instructions from Security Staff
2. The Building will use the Alertcast System to notify Tenants of such an occurrence.
3. It is, however, each Tenant’s individual decision whether or not to evacuate the Building.
If evacuation is decided, elevators should be used rather than the exit stairs.
4. The Security Staff will call the Police and report the bomb threat.
5. Building employees will check all Men’s and Women’s toilet rooms on common corridor floors while
awaiting the police.
Emergency Procedures: Elevator Emergencies
If you become trapped in an elevator:
1. Remain calm
2. Push the emergency alarm button (button surrounded by red ring with white phone symbol). This will
send a signal to the Security Desk where the problem elevator will be indicated on the Elevator CRT.
3. The Building Guard will talk to you over the elevator intercom, indicating that your situation is
understood.
4. The Guard will then get in touch with the Elevator Service Technician in the Building.
5. If it is after hours, through the elevator service company's 24-hour hotline.
6. The Guard then tells you that help has been summoned and stays on the intercom with you as long
as necessary.

Fire Evacuation Procedures
1. If you discover a fire or smoke, sound the Building fire alarm. Know the location of the alarm signal
stations and how they operate.
2. The person stationed at the lobby desk will immediately notify the Philadelphia Fire Department by
dialing 9-1-1 when an alarm is transmitted.
3. WHEN THE FIRE ALARM SOUNDS (floor of alarm, floor above and floor below): Leave at once.
Close doors behind you. Proceed into the fire exit and remain there until you are given further
instructions by the Fire Department or Building Fire Marshal. Do not use elevators. Fire exits are safe
areas of refuge since they are enclosed and the doors and walls are fire rated to keep smoke and
heat from entering the stairway.
4. WHEN THE ALERT TONE SIGNAL SOUNDS (other floors than above): Standby for further
instructions. Do not enter the fire exit and do not use elevators.
5. DO NOT USE ELEVATORS: They will stop if power fails, causing occupants to become trapped.
Elevator shaft ways are like chimneys. Smoke could enter the elevator shaft thereby asphyxiating the
occupants trying to evacuate the building.
6. Feel the door that leads from your office to the corridor before opening it. If it is hot or smoke is
seeping in, do not open. If you become trapped in your office and cannot reach the fire exit, keep the
door closed and seal off any cracks. Use the telephone in your office to call the Fire Department. Dial
9-1-1 and give the name and location of the building, the floor you are on and the office number.
7. If the door feels cool, open it cautiously. Be braced to slam it shut if the corridor is full of smoke or if
you feel heat pressure against the door. If the corridor is clear, proceed with escape plan.
8. DISABLED PERSONS: A responsible person or person, who work in the same area as the disabled,
should be assigned to assist in the event of a fire. These persons are taken to the fire exit and will
remain on the landing in the fire exit. The Philadelphia Fire Department will be in the building within
minutes to assist them.
9. If caught in smoke or heat, stay low where the air is better. Take short breaths (through nose) until
you reach the fire exit.
THE ABOVE PROCEDURES HAVE BEEN ISSUED BY THE PHILADELPHIA FIRE DEPARTMENT. THEY
MUST BE POSTED IN A CONSPICIOUS LOCATION IN EVERY TENANT OFFICE.
THREE FLOOR EVACUATION APPROVED PRE-RECORDED VOICE MESSAGE
Automatic Voice Messages
Upon receipt of an alarm signal from fire alarm indicating appliances (water/sprinkler flow, pull stations,
smoke detector, etc., the fire alarm system will automatically active the Voice Alarm System. The following
messages will be automatically transmitted throughout the building.
EVACUATION TONE AND MESSAGES
A slow “whoop” evacuation tone followed by one of the following messages:
Messages will be repeated giving three (3) rounds of three, with one-minute intervals of alarm sound – slow
“whoop”.
1. ALARM MESSAGE (to floor of alarm, floor above, and floor below)
“ATTENTION, ATTENTION. AN EMERGENCY HAS BEEN REPORTED IN THIS BUILDING. WHILE
THISE REPORT IS BEING VERIFIED, PLEASE PROCEED INTO THE NEAREST FIRE EXIT STAIRWAY,
AND AWAIT FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS. REMAIN IN THE FIRE EXIT STAIRWAY. DO NOT USE
ELEVATORS. REPEAT, DO NOT USE ELEVATORS.”
2. ALERT OR CHASER MESSAGE (to all other floors):
A 900 Hz 30 pulse/min. alert tone followed by a voice message, which states:
“ATTENTION, ATTENTION. AN EMERGENCY HAS BEEN REPORTED IN THIS BUILDING. WHILE THIS
IS BEING VERIFIED, PLEASE STANDBY FOR FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS. DO NOT ENTER THE FIRE
EXIT. DO NOT USE THE ELEVATORS.”
In the event that the emergency condition requires total building evacuation, an additional message will be
provided and activated manually by a switch at the fire control panel. Upon activation of the “evacuation”
switch at the fire control panel, the following will be transmitted throughout the building.
Message # 3 will be repeated with intervals of alarm sound, continuously until silenced.
3. EVACUTION MESSAGE (PRECEDED BY ALARM SIGNAL) (MANUAL)
“ATTENTION, ATTENTION. AN EMERGENCY HAS BEEN REPORTED IN THIS BUILDING. PLEASE
CEASE OPERATIONS AND LEAVE THE BUILDING, UTILIZING THE NEAREST EXIT OR FIRE EXIT
STAIRWAY. DO NOT USE ELEVATORS. REPEAT, DO NOT USE ELEVATORS.”
This sequence of “slow whoop” and voice message will sound continuously until silenced at fire control
panel.
In the event of a large-scale evacuation, please use the High Rise Building Evacuation Plan to locate the
city-mandated gathering point for One Liberty Place.
Emergency Procedures: Fire and Life Safety
One Liberty Place is fully sprinklered and is equipped with state-of-the-art fire detection and control
systems. Nevertheless, fire is always possible and always unpredictable. Therefore, it is everyone’s
responsibility to fully understand the Building Fire Safety Plan and Evacuation Procedures. These
procedures have been approved by the Philadelphia Fire Department and the Fire code requires that each
Tenant distribute them to each of its employees and also put them in a conspicuous location on the
Tenant’s premises.
Building Fire Safety Features
Exit Stairway Pressurization:
Upon activation of the Fire Alarm System, both fire exit stairways in the Building are pressurized by
emergency fans and stairway doors must stay closed to prevent smoke from entering.
Fire Floor Exhaust:
The floor from which a fire alarm signal has been transmitted has its normal air supply systems
automatically converted to full exhaust to remove all smoke. Simultaneously, the floors immediately above
and below are fully pressurized with air. This prevents the migration of smoke to other parts of the Building.
The remainder of the Building’s fans are automatically shut down.
Sprinklers:
Each floor is fully sprinklered. When an area underneath a sprinkler head is involved with fire, that sprinkler
heads’ fusible link melts and discharges a spray over the fire. Other sprinkler heads remain closed unless
their respective areas of protection become fire-involved.
Elevators:
All elevators will automatically recall to the Main Lobby. The elevators are designed with Phase II operation
for fireman’s use.
Automatic Exit Stairway Unlocking:
Under normal conditions, the exit stairway doors are kept locked from the stairway side for security reasons.
The only exit is at the bottom of the stairway on the Ground Floor. However, these exit doors are always
unlocked into the stair from the occupied floor side. Upon activation of the Fire Alarm System, the locked
exit doors automatically unlock, thereby allowing people escaping fire to re-enter at any floor.
Security Desk:
The Security Desk has an array of monitoring and communications equipment designed to report the
activation of any element of the Fire Safety System and to communicate with occupants of the Building over
the Speaker System.
Emergency Telephones in Exit Stairways:
Every five (5) floors of each exit stairway there is an emergency telephone directly connected to the Security
Desk.
Fire Drills
As required by City code, One Liberty Place conducts fire drills bi-annually. The date and time of the drills
will always be announced approximately one (1) week in advance (we will try to schedule our drills midweek
around 10:00 a.m.) If you hear the fire alarm and there has been no prior announcement, you must assume
that there is a real fire emergency.
The Philadelphia Fire Department requires that all occupants participate in the fire drills. Moreover, it is in
your best interest that you become completely familiar with the Fire Safety Procedures so that in the event
of a real emergency your actions will be automatic, routine and without panic.
At the sound of the fire alarm, everyone should follow the Fire Evacuation Procedures. Those hearing the
fire alarm evacuation message over the speakers should enter the exit stairway and those hearing the alert
message should standby and await further instructions. In about 10 minutes an announcement ending the
fire drill will be made over the speaker system. The entire drill should take no more than 15 minutes. All
elevators will be grounded during the drill.
Tenant Fire Captains are advised to report to the Building Management Office any problems experienced
during the drill.
Tenant Fire Captains and Alternates
Each Tenant is asked to designate a responsible employee for its premises on each of its floors to act as a
Fire Captain. This person will be responsible for ensuring that all of the Tenant’s employees are safely
evacuated in an emergency and for coordination during fire drills with the Building Management Office. An
Alternate Fire Captain should also be selected in case the Fire Captain is unavailable.
Please print the Fire Captain and Alternate Form and complete and return to the Building Management
Office. Please click here to access the form.
Emergency Procedures: Medical Emergency
If a Tenant employee or visitor becomes seriously ill or is injured, medical assistance can be provided by the
Fire Rescue Squad of the Philadelphia Fire Department:
1. Notify Rescue Squad by dialing 9-1-1. Describe the medical emergency and ask for interim
procedures.
2. Notify the Security Desk at 215-851-9001 so that an elevator will be standing by for evacuation.
3. If the medical emergency occurred as a result of occupancy of premises, notify Building Management
Office with all particulars.
Emergency Procedures: Power Failure
One Liberty Place’s electricity is supplied by PECO Energy through two (2) underground feeders. Each
feeder is supplied from a different portion of PECO’s Network. Normally, the Building gets approximately
one-half of its power from each feeder. There is an automatic transfer switch in the Building’s electrical
system so designed that, in the event of failure of either PECO feeder to the Building, all Building power will
be automatically transferred to the remaining feeder and Building power will be maintained.
In addition, the Building has two (2) emergency generators designed to provide power to all emergency
lighting (exit stairways, exit signs and emergency lights on all floors), to fire safety systems, smoke
evacuation system and to bring one (1) elevator at a time per bank to the Ground Floor.
Emergency Procedures: Shelter In Place
The Philadelphia Fire Code requires various buildings to develop a plan to shelter occupants inside the
Building in the event of a hazardous material, biological or other emergency outside the Building.
The purpose of the Shelter in Place Plan is to safeguard occupants during an emergency outside the
Building by preventing or limiting the infiltration of hazardous materials into the Building by closing doors,
shutting off air handling/HVAC systems and moving occupants away from perimeter windows and doors to
safe locations in the Building. The Building distributes floor plans to individual tenants showing the “safe”
locations on their floors.
One Liberty holds a Shelter in Place drill once a year. You will receive advance notification before a drill is
held.
Procedures During a Shelter in Place Emergency
1. Building Management will announce a shelter in place emergency is occurring over the Building’s
public address system:
“May I have your attention, may I have your attention, please. Due to an emergency outside the
building, the City of Philadelphia has directed One Liberty Place to implement our shelter in place
plan. Please proceed to your designated shelter location on your floors and away from the exterior
windows and await further instructions .”
2. Shelter in Place Captains are to ensure all occupants on their floors go to the designated shelter
locations. (Refer to the Shelter in Place floor plan for shelter locations on each floor). As with fire
emergency procedures, Captains should insure people with disabilities are assisted to their shelter
locations.
Please print and complete the Shelter in Place Captain and Alternate Form and return to the
Management Office.
3. Building Security will recall all elevators to the Main Lobby. They will also close and lock all outside
doors at the Main Lobby, Shops at Liberty Place and Loading Dock. In accordance with City fire code,
fire exit doors will not be locked from the inside. Stair tower doors will be unlocked during an
emergency to allow for inter floor travel. In some types of emergencies, occupants on lower floors
could be directed to upper floors to avoid possible exposure to outside contaminants that are heavier
than air.
4. Freight elevators go to the Lobby and the 4th floor.
5. Building engineers will shut down all air handling equipment and close all outside air dampers.
6. Building Management will monitor the emergency situation and provide updates to Building occupants
as they are received via the public address system.
7. Please note when an emergency is declared, no one will be permitted to enter or leave the Building
until City officials give the “all clear”.
8. When Building Management is notified the emergency is over, occupants will be directed via the
public address system to evacuate the Building via the elevators and stairways. The air handling
systems will be operated to remove any contaminants.
9. For purpose of a Shelter in Place drill, building evacuation will not be required.
Emergency Procedures: Tenant Liaison
To establish communications in case of building emergencies, to enhance security and to provide for an
uninterrupted flow of services, each Tenant shall submit to the Building Management Office the names(s) of
the Tenant employee(s) who will be responsible for the following:
1. Reporting complaints or deficiencies with respect to the occupied space or to any aspect of the
Building.
2. Authorizing the removal of Tenant equipment from the Building.
3. Requesting additional services such as access cards, lamp replacements, after-hours cooling, etc.
The person requesting additional services must be authorized to sign for same since there is a charge
for such services.
4. Receiving all information from the Building Management Office concerning building operations that
may affect the Tenant’s space, i.e. scheduled and emergency shutdowns of power, equipment, etc.
The person’s home telephone number should also be included in case of after hour emergencies.
5. Building Management will keep and update on a period basis, tenant contacts’ e-mail addresses. The
e-mail list will be used to notify tenants of building events.
Please complete the Tenant Liaison Form and send to the Building Management Office. Building
Management will request updates semi-annually.

Tenant shall comply with all reasonable rules and regulations from time to time promulgated by
Landlord to conserve such services.
18. These rules and regulations are not intended to give Tenant any rights or claims in the event the
Landlord does not enforce any of them against any other tenants or if Landlord does not have the
