after date of this Agreement, City will execute and deliver to Company the attached quit claim deed
conveying to Company the City's right, title and interest in and to the Land as long as the Facility

explanation, Company has requested and desires to own rather than lease the Facility Land and City

and clean -up costs, or demands of whatever nature or source for any condition, defect or
environmental problem, latent or obvious, now existing or hereafter discovered, created or caused,
in, on, under, from or within the Land or the Facility, or incurred by reason of, or resulting from

petroleum or petroleum based products or by- products or exhaust from their combustion, in, on,

City's quit claim deed to Company. Upon City's receipt of such special warranty deed duly executed
and acknowledged for recording, this Agreement shall terminate and the parties shall be released
and discharged from all future obligations hereunder.

is conveyed by City and the Facility is to be constructed by Company on the Facility Land for the
limited purpose of making available an emergency supply of electricity and electric power and

or by any other person, entity or facility, provided, however that electricity or electric power
generated or produced during the limited periods of one or two hours per week when the Facility
is operated to verify capacity may be sold or distributed to the Local Utility.
6. Approval Company shall not commence construction or installation of the Facility
on the Facility Land until after the Plans and Specifications therefor have been submitted to and
approved by City's Director of Public Works, which approval shall not be unreasonably delayed or
withheld. Such approval shall not impose any liability or obligation on the City or the City's
Director of Public Works with respect to the Plans and Specifications, including without limitation,
the design, suitability, safety or function of the Facility.
7. Covenant Running With Land And Enforcement This Agreement and all its
covenants and conditions are and shall be construed to be covenants running with the Land, inuring
