covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt

Easement Area, provided, however, that with respect to any Encroachment installed by Owner City
shall be liable to repair damage thereto only if caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct

bodily injury, death or property damage arising out of and/or related to the easement rights granted

any way preclude Owner from causing, allowing or permitting utilities to cross the Easement Area.
FURTHERMORE, Owner and City agree as follows:
5. City hereby grants Owner the right to place and maintain, at Owner's sole risk, a swimming pool and
related improvements in, upon and over the Encroachment area depicted on Exhibit B attached hereto,
subject to the rights of the City and/or any agency to which the City has granted a utility franchise or
license agreement to and for access over, under and upon said Easement Area, expressly recognizing
and acknowledging that any damage that occurs to the Sewer will be the sole risk and expense of
Owner, including repair, removal or replacement expenses. Prior to commencing repair or
maintenance work to the Sewer located within the Encroachment, City shall notify Owner of the work
plans for such repair or maintenance work, except in cases of emergency, in which event City shall
notify Owner of such work plans as soon as practicable. City shall not be liable for damage caused to
the Encroachment arising from City's exercise of its rights under this Agreement, except for damage
caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of City.
6. Owner shall protect, defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City and its successors and assigns, and
its officers, elected officials, employees, and agents, and any agency to which the City has granted a
utility franchise or right-of-way license agreement, from and against any claim, damages, liability
and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney's fees and costs of litigation) of any
type or nature whatsoever, except those arising out of the grossly negligent acts or omissions of the
indemnified parties, arising out of the use, maintenance or removal of said Encroachment. This
covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
7. This Agreement may be amended only in a written instrument signed by the parties. The provisions
of this Agreement hereof shall inure to the benefit of and bind the successors and assigns of the
respective parties hereto; shall be deemed to apply to and run with the land and with the title to the
land; and shall be recorded in the Black Hawk County Recorder's Office.
