reserved to Grantor, its successors and assigns, is retained along with the general right of Grantor,
its successors and assigns, to the use of the Right-of-Way for any purpose not inconsistent with the
use by Grantee of said easement for the purposes herein defined.
This Easement is made subject to all outstanding leases and other outstanding rights,
including, but not limited to, those for highways and other roadways and rights of way for irrigation
ditches, pipelines, pole and wire lines and the right of renewals and extensions of the same, and
subject also to all conditions, limitations, restrictions, encumbrances, reservations or interests of any
person which may affect the Right-of-Way, whether recorded or unrecorded, and is made without
covenant of title or for quiet enjoyment.
The Easement described in Exhibit "A" is for a strip of land thirty feet (30') in width; however,
Grantee shall have the right to use a fifty foot (50') right-of-way which shall include the land twenty-
five feet (25') on either side of the centerline described in the exhibit during the time that Grantee is
actually constructing the Pipeline; provided, however, the right-of-way shall be reduced to the thirty
foot (30') strip of land described in the exhibit at such time as Grantee completes construction of the
Pipeline.
The grant of Easement herein made is on the express condition that Grantor, its successors
and assigns, shall not be liable to Grantee, its successors or assigns, for any damage occurring to
the installations made or to be made by Grantee upon the Right-of-Way or for any other damage
whatsoever occasioned by subsidence of the surface of the Right-of-Way as a result of mining
underneath the same or resulting in any other way from the removal of coal or other minerals in or
underlying the Right-of-Way.
All operations hereunder shall be conducted at the expense of Grantee and in compliance
with all Federal, State and County laws, rules, ordinances and regulations which are applicable to
the area of operations including but not limited to those pertaining to environment, fire, sanitation,
conservation, water pollution, and fish and game. All operations hereunder shall be conducted in a

any and all penalties, fines, costs and expenses, including court costs and counsel fees, imposed
upon or incurred by Grantor, its officers, employees and/or agents, resulting from, or connected with,
such violation and/or violations.
Grantee shall not suffer or permit any mechanic's lien, or other lien, to be filed against said
Right-of-Way or any part thereof, by reason of work, labor, services, or materials supplied, or
claimed to have been supplied, to Grantee, or anyone claiming under Grantee. If any such
mechanic's lien, or other lien, shall at any time be filed against said Right-of-Way, Grantee shall
1

cause the same to be discharged of record within thirty (30) days of the date of filing the same; and
if Grantee shall fail to discharge such lien within such period, then Grantor may, at its option,
discharge the same by paying the amount claimed to be due without inquiry into the validity of the
same and Grantee shall thereupon reimburse Grantor within thirty (30) days for any payment so
made.

hazardous wastes are controlled by the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976
and regulations issued pursuant to the Act and subsequent Acts by the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (EP A) andlor state agencies. If Grantee's use of the Right-of-Way shall include
any regulated hazardous waste activities, Grantee shall obtain a hazardous waste permit from the
EPA or appropriate state agency and shall provide copy of same to Grantor.

successors or assigns, against and from any and all liability, loss, damage, claims, demands,

including attorney's fees and costs which may result from personal injury to or death of
persons whomsoever, or damage to or loss or destruction of property or the environment,
including the Pipeline of Grantee, and including environmental claims, natural resource

appurtenances of Grantor or its affiliates, or of its or their tenants, when such personal
injury, death, loss, destruction or damage, howsoever caused, grows out of or arises from or
in connection with the construction, operation, maintenance, repair, renewal, reconstruction,
removal or use of said Pipeline or the bursting of or leaks in said Pipeline, unless caused by
the sole and direct negligence of Grantor or any of its affiliates or any of its or their officers,
employees and/or agents. .
The term "affiliate" (or "affiliates" as the case may be) as used herein means any corporation
which directly or indirectly controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with Grantor.
Grantee shall not assign this Easement or any interest therein, without the written consent of
Grantor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Subject to the foregoing, the terms and conditions of this grant shall be applicable to
Grantee, its successors and assigns.
For the purposes of this Easement, abandonment shall be defined as non-use of the Right-
of-Way or any portion thereof for the uses heretofore stated for the period of one (1) year. In the
event of abandonment of the Right-of-Way, or any portion thereof, either by non-use or otherwise,

that the title to the Right-of-Way so abandoned is free and clear of said Easement as well as any
liens, encumbrances, clouds upon or defects in the title to said Right-of-Way created or permitted to
be created by Grantee, its successors or assigns. Termination of the rights granted hereunder shall
not relieve Grantee, its successors and assigns from compliance with the covenants and
agreements contained herein.

facilities so abandoned and restore the portion of the Right-of-Way to which the abandoned facilities
are appurtenant to its original condition within ninety (90) days after receipt of notice from Grantor to
perform such activities, Grantor may perform such activities for the account of Grantee.

of the rights granted hereunder to Grantee shall be reseeded by Grantee, at the sole expense of
Grantee, in a manner consistent with applicable Governmental requirements on comparable
adjacent areas of public lands. Grantee shall eradicate all noxious weeds from the Right-of-Way
