NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals, which recitals are contractual in nature, the mutual promises herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 1. In accordance with this Covenant and Permit and subject to Chapter 13, Article 2, Section 13-219 of the Fresno Municipal Code, a nonexclusive, revocable Encroachment Permit to use and occupy the Encroachment Area solely as 1 provided for hereunder shall issue to Covenantor automatically with the recording of this Covenant and Permit. 2.

In addition to its governmental, legislative, administrative and regulatory activities, the City retains the right to verify that the Covenantor is performing its respective obligations in accordance with controlling law and the terms and conditions hereof. 5. This Encroachment Permit does not relieve Covenantor from the obligation of obtaining a street work permit pursuant to Chapter 13, Article 2, Section 13-202 for any work to be done in the Public Right of Way contiguous to or within the Encroachment Area. Before beginning to install the Facility, Covenantor shall obtain written approval of all plans, drawings, and specifications for such installation from -the Director. Upon such approval, Covenantor shall install the Facility as promptly as practicable in strict accordance with the approved plans, drawings, and specifications. No change shall be made in the approved plans, drawings, or specifications without the prior written approval of the Director. 6. City makes no representation or warranty as to the nature or extent of City's interest in, or the condition or suitability of, the Encroachment Area. Covenantor shall inform and satisfy itself in such regards. Covenantor shall obtain any and all title reports, permits, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to lawfully enter the Encroachment Area and install the Facility. This Encroachment Permit is not permission to trespass on any property, publicly or privately owned. 7. Covenantor shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend the City and each of its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers from any and all loss, liability, fines, penalties, forfeitures, costs and damages (whether imposed under authority of statute or common law, in contract, tort, or strict liability, including but not limited to personal injury, death at any time, and, property damage) incurred by the City, Covenantor or any other person, and from any and all claims, demands and actions in law or equity (including attorney's fees and litigation expenses) arising or alleged to have arisen directly or indirectly out of or in any 2 way connected with (a) the issuance and pursuit of this Covenant and Permit, (b) use of the Encroachment Area by Covenantor, its employees, officers, agents, contractors or subcontractors, and/or (c) design, installation, operation, maintenance, repair and/or removal of the Facility. Covenantor's obligations under the preceding sentence shall apply regardless of whether the City or any of its officers, officials, employees, agents or volunteers are actively or passively negligent, but shall not apply to any loss, liability, fines, penalties, forfeitures, costs or damages caused solely by the active negligence or by the willful misconduct of City or any of its officers, officials, employees, agents or volunteers. This section shall survive revocation of this Covenant and Permit. 8. The City, in its sole discretion, may revoke the Encroachment Permit (i) upon Director's determination that the Covenantor has failed to comply with one or more of the terms, conditions, or restrictions hereunder, and/or (ii) upon Director's determination that the use of the Encroachment Area, or any portion thereof, is required for any municipal or public utility purpose or is detrimental to or not in furtherance of the public health, safety, welfare and interest. City shall endeavor to give at least ninety (90) days written notice of such requirement and/or finding either by mailing such notice through the United States mail, or by personal delivery, to Covenantor at its address of record or at such other address as is provided to City in writing by Covenantor. Upon any revocation of the Encroachment Permit, Covenantor shall at its sole cost, expense and liability remove the Facility and any and all appurtenant structures and equipment located in the Encroachment Area, restore the Encroachment Area to substantially the same condition it was in prior to removal of the Facility, and surrender to the City all possession, use and occupation of the Encroachment Area.

This Covenant shall run with the land, and shall be jointly and severally binding upon Covenantor and each of its heirs, representatives, successors, and assigns. 10. Covenantor represents and warrants that Covenantor has consulted with the City of Fresno's Development Department to confirm whether any additional permit(s) are required for the encroachment and Facility and Covenantor agrees to apply for and acquire such additional permit(s). City may revoke the Encroachment Permit in the manner provided in Section 8 above, should such additional permit(s) be required by City and is not timely obtained by Covenantor. 11. The prevailing party in any action to enforce or interpret any term, covenant or condition of the Covenant and Permit shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney's fees and legal expenses. 3 12. The provisions of the Covenant and Permit are severable. The invalidity or unenforceability of any one provision, or part thereof, shall not affect the validity or invalidity of any other provision, provided that City may revoke the Encroachment Permit in the manner provided in Section 8 above, in the event such invalidity or unenforceability shall cause the Covenant and Permit to fail of its essential purposes. 13. The parties acknowledge that this Covenant and Permit in its final form is the result of combined efforts of the parties and that, should any provision of this Covenant and Permit be found to be ambiguous in any way, such ambiguity shall not be resolved by construing this Covenant and Permit in favor or against any party, but rather by construing the terms in accordance with their generally accepted meaning. 14. In the event of any conflict between the body of this Covenant and Permit and any Exhibit or Attachment hereto, the terms and conditions of the body of this Covenant and Permit shall control and take precedence over the terms and conditions expressed within the Exhibit or Attachment. Furthermore, any terms or conditions contained within any Exhibit or Attachment hereto which purport to modify the allocation of risk between the parties, provided for within the body of this Covenant and Permit, shall be null and void. 15. Whenever in this Covenant and Permit the context hereof requires, the neuter shall include the masculine or feminine or both and the singular shall include the plural. 16. Covenantor agrees to protect and hold harmless the City, the Facility, the Encroachment Area, and any and all improvements located therein or thereon and any and all facilities appurtenant thereto and any and all other property(ies) located therein or thereon and any and all of City's interest(s) in and/or to said premises, improvements, appurtenant facilities, and/or other property(ies), from any and all such taxes and assessments, including any and all interest, penalties and other expenses which may be imposed thereby or result therefrom, and from any lien therefor or sale or other proceedings to enforce payment thereof. Nothing within this Section 16 shall be deemed to limit any of Covenantor's rights to appeal any such levies and/or assessments in accordance with the rules, regulations, laws, statutes, or ordinances governing the appeal process of the taxing authority(ies) making such levies and/or assessments. 17. By its signature(s) hereunto affixed, Covenantor expressly acknowledges and clearly understands that neither this Covenant and Permit, nor the issuance of this Covenant and Permit by City to Covenantor nor acceptance of this Covenant and Permit by Covenantor constitutes, in any way whatsoever, any agreement by or on behalf of City to enter into any further/other agreement, permit, lease, or other arrangement of any type whatsoever, beyond the term of or in addition to this Covenant and Permit. 4 In WITNESS WHEREOF, the Covenantor has executed this Covenant and Permit.
