Grantee shall give at least 72 hours written notice to Grantor prior to the commencement of construction of the Pipeline or any part thereof. The Temporary Construction Easement granted PIPELINE EASEMENT AND RIGHT OF WAY - PAGE 1 herein will terminate and cease upon completion of the installation and testing of the Pipeline and Equipment or March 1, 2008, whichever is earlier.

Grantee's Use of the Easement. Grantee shall have all of the rights and benefits necessary and convenient for the full enjoyment and use of the Easement and the rights herein granted, including, without limitation, the right of ingress to and egress to and from the Easement and the right from time to time to cut all trees, undergrowth and other obstructions that, in Grantee's reasonable judgment, may injure, endanger or interfere with the Grantee's use of the Easement Tract.

Grantor agrees not to impound water over the Easement without the prior approval of Grantee. 4. Covenants Running With The Land. This Agreement, together with the other provisions of this grant of Easement, shall constitute covenants running with the land, binding upon and inure to the benefit of Grantor and Grantee, and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns. Grantee's rights hereunder may be assigned in whole but not in part. 5. Surface Damage Payments. The Initial Consideration paid by Grantee to Grantor includes any and all damages that may be sustained by original construction of the Pipeline within the Easement, including without limitation, cutting trees and damages to land, trees, fences and growing crops (to the extent allowed hereafter).

PIPELINE EASEMENT AND RIGHT OF WAY - PAGE 2 8. Additional Provisions. (a) Grantee will utilize the Easement Tract only for the Pipeline and Equipment. Except as provided in Paragraph 8(b) below and except for the Pipeline and Equipment, no structures, improvements or impediments shall be constructed on, under or across any portion of the Easement Tract. (b) To the extent that such uses are consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations, Grantor, its successors and assigns, reserve, retain, and shall have the right to fully use and enjoy the said premises covered by the Easement Tract, including the right to layout and construct and maintain streets, alleys, landscaping, signage, lighting and lighting poles and equipment, parking lots, fences, walls and utilities across said Easement Tract, provided that such improvements do not endanger or interfere with the normal operation of the Pipeline. Grantor shall notify Grantee at least sixty (60) days in advance of the construction or installation of any improvements on the Easement Tract. Grantor reserves the right to use the Easement Tract in common with Grantee, provided that such use(s) do not endanger or interfere with the normal operation of the Pipeline and Equipment and provided Grantor maintains minimum clearances over the Pipeline, and minimum distances from the Pipeline and Equipment as required by prudent and customary engineering practices, standards, and applicable laws, rules, regulations and codes. Grantor may not erect buildings on or over any portion of the Easement Tract. (c) In addition to the consideration recited above for the grant of this easement, after the installation of the Pipeline and Equipment, Grantee agrees to restore the Easement Tract and any lands within the Temporary Construction Easement, to a condition as good as exists on the date prior to any work, including but not limited to fences, driveways, parking areas, drainage channels, terraces, landscaping, and other improvements damaged by the installation of the Pipeline and Equipment. All installation and restoration work shall be completed by Grantee by March I, 2008. (d) Grantee shall, at its sole cost and expense, install and at all times maintain the Pipeline and Equipment within the Easement Tract in a good and workmanlike manner. Grantee agrees to repair and restore any damage or injury (including, without limitation, paving, driveways, parking areas, fences, landscaping, and other surface features) to the Easement Tract and the land adjacent thereto (the "Adiacent Land") caused or occasioned by the installation, operation, maintenance, repair, or removal of the Pipeline and or Equipment. ( e) This conveyance is expressly subject to all existing rights-of-way and other matters of record or visible upon inspection of the Easement Tract. It is the intent of the Parties that this Agreement grants Grantee an interest in the surface only, and not in the minerals under the Easement Tract. Accordingly, Grantor expressly reserves and retains a mineral reservation of all of Grantor's and all other existing interests in and to all oil, gas and other minerals on, in or under the Easement Tract. Cf) The easements, covenants, and restrictions set forth in this Agreement shall run with the land and shall be binding on Grantor and Grantee, their successors and assigns.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding among the Grantor and Grantee, their respective partners, members, trustees, shareholders, officers, directors and employees with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all negotiations, prior discussions and prior agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter. 10. Counterpart Signatures. Grantor and Grantee may execute this Agreement in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original instrument, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
