As a material part of the consideration for this Permanent Easement Agreement, Grantee
agrees that the use of the Permanent Easement Property by Grantee and by Grantee's successors and

for the Facilities. Grantors and Grantee agree that this restriction shall be a covenant that runs with

or within the Permanent Easement Property without the prior written consent of Grantor, which
consent may be withheld for any reason whatsoever. Grantor hereby consents to Grantee's agents
and contractors performing work for Grantee on the Permanent Easement Property pursuant to the
terms of this Easement Agreement. Grantee further may not assign or sell this Permanent Easement
Agreement or any rights related to the Permanent Easement Property without the prior written
consent of Grantor, which consent may be withheld for any reason whatsoever. Any attempted sale
or assignment without Grantor' s prior written consent shall be void and of no force and effect.

c) validly existing utility easements created by recorded dedication deed or
plat;
d) matters described on Exhibit C;
e) any law, ordinance, or governmental regulation (including but not limited

f) validly existing rights of adjoining owners in any walls and fences situated

part of any of the foregoing.
3. Grantee shall be entitled to use the Permanent Easement Property solely for the
purposes expressly set forth in this Permanent Easement Agreement and for no other purpose. Until
a new driveway is constructed across the Permanent Easement Property, Grantee shall not close or
impede access to Grantor's property over and through the existing driveway that crosses the

driveway if: i) it is necessary and unavoidable for utility relocation and other construction activities
in connection with the Project; and ii) Grantee provides Grantor with an alternative, temporary
access drive to Grantor's property that is reasonably satisfactory to Grantor. Grantor will not store, or
allow any other person or entity to store, any gasoline, diesel or other fuel, oil, or any other

4. It shall be Grantee's sole responsibility to ensure that the Facilities are installed so that
they will not interfere with or affect existing utilities, improvements, structures, and other
encumbrance (with the exception of the improvements Grantee is removing or filling in pursuant to
the terms of the Compromise Settlement Agreement between Grantor and Grantee), that the
Permanent Easement Property is adequate for Grantee's intended and actual use, and that Grantee's
use of the Permanent Easement Property complies with all state, federal, and local requirements for
the excavation, construction, reconstruction, installation, operation, repair, maintenance,
replacement, alteration and /or removal of Grantee's Facilities.

and Grantee's insurance, if any, shall be considered secondary insurance. To the extent Grantee's
contract with any contractor, subcontractor, consultant or other agent that will work on or in
connection with the Permanent Easement Property contains a release, indemnity and /or hold
harmless agreement, Grantee will require that such release, indemnity and /or hold harmless
agreement extends to and covers Grantor.

reconstruction or other work on or in the Permanent Easement Property, Grantee shall promptly
restore that part of the surface of the Permanent Easement Property that is not used for above - ground
Facilities to a landscaped condition consistent with the Kimball Road project. If any other portion of
Grantor's property outside the Permanent Easement Property is damaged as a result of Grantee's
activities, Grantee will promptly repair and restore such damaged area to its pre- damage condition.
Grantee agrees to provide Grantor with copies of all as -built construction drawings for the Facilities
no later than 60 days after Grantee completes construction and any later reconstruction of the
Facilities.
8. It is expressly understood and agreed that this Permanent Easement Agreement does
not constitute a conveyance in fee of any part of the Permanent Easement Property or a conveyance
of any interest in the oil, gas (including casinghead gas and all gaseous substances), hydrocarbons,
other minerals, water, sulphur, or other materials in, on, and/or under the Permanent Easement
Property, which rights are expressly retained by Grantor, but only grants the non - exclusive easement
rights specifically provided in this Permanent Easement Agreement; if the Permanent Easement
Property is subject to existing production or an existing lease, this reservation includes the
production, the lease, and all benefits from it provided, however, that neither Grantor nor Grantor's
agents or assigns shall explore for, mine or drill for or otherwise produce the water, oil, gas

4
28028.6
to produce the water, oil, gas, hydrocarbons, and other minerals reserved herein only by directional

in a manner which does not enter upon, or interfere with Grantee's rights under this Permanent
Easement Agreement.
9. Grantee shall not permit to be placed against the Permanent Easement Property,
Grantor's other property, or any part of either, any design professionals', mechanics', materialmen's
contractors' or subcontractors' liens with regard to Grantee's actions and activities upon or affecting
the Permanent Easement Property. GRANTEE AGREES TO HOLD THE GRANTOR
HARMLESS FOR ANY LOSS ARISING FROM ANY SUCH LIENS WHICH MIGHT BE
FILED AGAINST GRANTOR'S PROPERTY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE
PERMANENT EASEMENT PROPERTY. THE INDEMNITY AND OTHER RIGHTS
AFFORDED BY THIS SECTION SHALL SURVIVE THE TERMINATION AND
EXPIRATION OF THIS PERMANENT EASEMENT AGREEMENT.
10. The rights granted under this Permanent Easement Agreement are granted until the
Facilities or use of the Permanent Easement Property shall be Abandoned, and in that event such
rights shall cease and all rights granted under this Permanent Easement Agreement shall terminate
and revert to Grantor or Grantor's heirs, successors, assigns and/or legal representatives. "Abandon"
or "Abandonment" as used herein, is defined as the non -use of the Facilities or the Permanent

Grantee from any liability or obligation under this Permanent Easement Agreement.
12. In the event of a dispute between the parties with respect to the terms or conditions of,
or the rights or obligations under, this Permanent Easement Agreement, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to collect from the other party its reasonable attorneys' fees.
13. If a court finds any provision of this Permanent Easement Agreement to be invalid or
unenforceable as to any person or circumstance, such finding shall not render the provision invalid or
unenforceable as to any other persons or circumstances. To the extent feasible, any provision found
to be invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed to be modified to be valid and enforceable; however,
if a material provision cannot be so modified, then all rights herein granted shall terminate and the
Permanent Easement Property and Facilities shall automatically revert to Grantor or Grantor's heirs,
successors, assigns and /or legal representatives.
14. This Permanent Easement Agreement is not valid or binding on any party unless
executed by all of the parties listed below. This Permanent Easement Agreement may be executed in
one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument.
15. The provisions of this Permanent Easement Agreement shall extend to and be binding
upon Grantee and Grantor and their permitted successors and assigns, if any.
5
28028.6
15. Grantor agrees and represents that: (i) this Permanent Easement Agreement is binding
on Grantor and enforceable as an agreement in settlement of condemnation under Texas A &M
University- Kingsville v. Lawson, 87 S.W.3d 518 (Tex. 2002) and City of Carrollton v. Singer, 232
S.W.3d 790 (Tex. App. - -Fort Worth 2007, pet. denied) as clarified by any subsequent decisions of
the Texas Supreme Court or the Fort Worth Court of Appeals. In the event of a suit by Grantor
against Grantee for breach of this Permanent Easement Agreement, City will not assert immunity
from such suit, pursuant to the law as set out in the cases cited above.
16. GRANTEE IS TAKING THE PERMANENT EASEMENT PROPERTY
PURSUANT TO AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES IN SETTLEMENT OF
CONDEMNATION. THE CONSIDERATION WAS BARGAINED ON THE BASIS OF AN
"AS IS, WHERE IS" TRANSACTION AND REFLECTS THE AGREEMENT OF THE
PARTIES THAT THERE ARE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
WARRANTIES EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN. GRANTEE HAS NOT
RELIED ON ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED BY GRANTOR OR ANY PERSON OR
ENTITY ACTING ON GRANTOR'S BEHALF OR FOR WHOM GRANTOR HAS
RESPONSIBILITY OTHER THAN GRANTEE'S INSPECTION.
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD unto Grantee, without warranty of title, either expressed or
implied, for the term hereinafter set forth, and subject to the terms, conditions, limitation,
reservations, and exceptions contained in this Permanent Easement Agreement, until the Facilities or
use of the Permanent Easement Property shall be Abandoned as provided in this Permanent
Easement Agreement, and in that event said Permanent Easement Agreement shall cease, all rights
herein granted shall terminate, and all rights to use the Permanent Easement Property shall
