8.4.2    Ad valorem taxes, utility charges and other expenses relating to the Property shall be prorated as of the Closing Date based upon a 365-day tax year and on the tax rate and valuation known at the time of Closing, giving effect to applicable exemptions, recently rated millage, change in tax rate or valuation, whether or not officially certified.

9.Possession. Possession of the Property shall be delivered to Purchaser on the Closing Date free and clear of all leases, licenses or rights of possession of third parties.

10.Broker.

10.1    Brokers. Each of Seller and Purchaser represents and warrants to the other Party that it has not been represented by a real estate broker or agent in this transaction (other than Davis Moore Advisors which is not due a real estate commission for this transaction) and that it will hold the other Party harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, costs, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of litigation, the other Party may suffer or incur because of any claim any real estate broker or agent, whether or not meritorious, for any fee, commission or other compensation with regard to this Agreement or the sale and purchase of the Property contemplated hereby, and arising out of any acts or agreements of Seller or Purchaser, as applicable.

10.2    Survival. This Section shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement for a period of one (1) year.

11.Default.

11.1    Purchaser’s Default. If the purchase and sale of the Property contemplated hereby is not consummated in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement due to circumstances or conditions which constitute a default by Purchaser under this Agreement, or as a result of Purchaser’s failure to secure capital (equity and debt) (“Insufficient Capital”), or if Purchaser defaults under the Lease beyond all applicable notice and cure periods, and provided Seller is not in material default of its obligations under this Agreement or the Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, then Purchaser shall make the Development Rights Assignment with all of the Incurred Project Costs paid by Purchaser in full to the date of the assignment and shall pay to Seller Twenty-Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($25,000.00) if such amount is due under Section 6.1. The foregoing assignment by Purchaser shall be Seller’s full compensation and liquidated damages for any and all losses incurred by Seller in connection with such default and/or Purchaser’s failure to consummate the purchase and sale contemplated hereby due to Insufficient Capital (“Failure to Close”). The Parties acknowledge that Seller’s actual damages in the event of a default or Failure to Close will be difficult to ascertain, that the value of the Development Rights Assignment as liquidated damages represent the Parties’ best estimate of such damages, and that Seller and Purchaser believe the Development Rights Assignment is sufficient compensation for the Parties’ reasonable estimate of such damages. The Parties expressly acknowledge that the Development Rights Assignment is intended not as a penalty, but as full compensation and liquidated damages, in the event of a default or Failure to Close. The Development Rights Assignment shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Seller by reason of a default or Failure to Close by Purchaser, and Seller hereby waives and releases any right to sue Purchaser for specific performance of this Agreement or to prove that Seller’s actual damages exceed the value of the liquidated damages herein provided to Seller as full liquidated damages; provided, however, that the foregoing liquidated damages shall not apply to any duty, obligation, liability or responsibility which

Purchaser may have under the indemnification provisions of Sections 6.1.2 and 6.1.3 of this Agreement, as to which Seller shall have all rights and remedies provided for or allowed by law or in equity.

11.2    Seller’s Default. If the purchase and sale of the Property contemplated hereby is not consummated in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement due to circumstances or conditions which constitute a default by Seller under this Agreement, or if Seller defaults under the Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, and, provided Purchaser is not in material default of its obligations under this Agreement or this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Purchaser may, as its sole and exclusive remedies, (i) sue Seller for specific performance of this Agreement if, and only if, the State Closing has occurred and Seller’s default is a failure by Seller to convey the Property to Purchaser as required by this Agreement; (ii) sue Seller for specific performance under the State PSA if, and only if, Seller’s default is a failure by Seller to acquire the Property from the State pursuant to the State PSA; or (iii) terminate this Agreement, in which event all rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall expire, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for one hundred percent (100%) of the Incurred Project Costs, plus Purchaser’s reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Bandwidth Agreements plus a termination fee equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the sum of the foregoing costs and fees, and, thereafter, this Agreement shall become null and void (the “Seller’s Default Payment”). The Parties acknowledge that Purchaser’s actual damages in the event of a default by Seller will be difficult to ascertain, that the value of the Seller’s Default Payment as liquidated damages represent the Parties’ best estimate of such damages, and that Seller and Purchaser believe the Seller’s Default Payment is sufficient compensation for the Parties’ reasonable estimate of such damages. The Parties expressly acknowledge that the Seller’s Default Payment is intended not as a penalty, but as full compensation and liquidated damages, in the event of a default by Seller. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Purchaser be entitled to recover speculative, special or punitive damages in connection with the breach of any obligation under this Agreement. The reimbursement obligation in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

11.3    Notice and Cure Rights. Other than Seller’s or Purchaser’s failure to consummate the Closing when required to do so under this Agreement, there shall not be a default under this Agreement until the non-defaulting Party shall have given the defaulting Party written notice of such default, specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the default, and the defaulting Party shall have (i) ten (10) days in which to cure said default in the case of monetary defaults; and (ii) twenty (20) days in which to cure said default in the case of non-monetary defaults.

11.4    Survival. The provisions of this Section 11 shall survive Closing and any termination of this Agreement.

12.Special Provisions.

12.1    Seller Actions under the State PSA.

12.1.1    Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 12.1, for so long as this Agreement is in full force and effect, (i) Seller will not modify, amend, terminate, extend, send notices under or otherwise take legal action under the State PSA (“State PSA Action”) without Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (ii) Seller shall promptly deliver to Purchaser copies of any notices it receives from the State in connection with the State PSA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may, without obtaining Purchaser’s prior written consent, terminate the State PSA upon the occurrence of any of the following events (each, a “Material Adverse Event”): (a) a default by the State under the State PSA beyond any applicable notice and cure periods; (b) the occurrence of a material condemnation which would make the remaining portion of the Land undevelopable for the Development; or (c) the discovery of material environmental contamination which is not eligible for protection under the Brownfields or other similar State program, or the discovery of a material adverse condition on the Land which makes the Development unfeasible or undesirable in the reasonable opinion of Seller; provided, however, Seller may not terminate the State PSA without having first notified Purchaser of the Material Adverse Event and explored, in good faith together with Purchaser, an alternative resolution to such Material Adverse Event. If Seller terminates the State PSA due to a Material Adverse Event in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then Seller shall have no obligation to reimburse Purchaser for any Incurred Project Costs; provided, however, if Seller terminates the State PSA pursuant to subsection (a) above without commencing a claim for specific performance against the State within ninety (90) days following such default by the State thereunder and thereafter diligently pursuing the same through the trial phase (without any requirement to appeal the decision), then Seller shall promptly pay to Purchaser an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Incurred Project Costs plus Purchaser’s reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Bandwidth Agreements plus a termination fee equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the sum of the foregoing costs and fees. The foregoing obligation shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

12.2    Condemnation. If at any time before the Closing Date a material condemnation which would make the remaining portion of the Property undevelopable for the Project (as determined by Purchaser in its sole discretion) shall occur, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by providing written notice thereof to Seller.

12.3    Reimbursement and Payment Obligations. Seller and Purchaser shall each pay any amounts due hereunder to the other Party within thirty (30) days of its receipt

from the other Party of an invoice thereof. Each of Seller’s and Purchaser’s reimbursement or payment obligations hereunder shall survive the termination of this Agreement (subject to any applicable survival periods expressly provided herein).

13.General Provisions.

13.1    Assignment. Except as provided below, this Agreement may not be assigned by Purchaser, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Seller, and any such assignment without the consent of Seller shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

THIS ADJACENT PARCEL RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of _________, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), is made by and among BANDWIDTH INC., a Delaware corporation (“Grantor”) and USEF EDWARDS MILL OWNER, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Grantee”).

A.Grantor is the fee simple owner of certain real property located in Raleigh, North Carolina and described on Exhibit A attached hereto (together with any improvements thereon and all rights appurtenant thereto, the “Property”).

B.Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Grantor has conveyed to Grantee fee simple title to that certain real property located in Raleigh, North Carolina and described on Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Grantee Property”). The Grantee Property is located adjacent to the Property.

C.Grantor’s execution and delivery of this Agreement was a material condition precedent to Grantee’s obligation to purchase the Grantee Property from Grantor.

D.Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Grantor desires to grant to Grantee a right of first offer with respect to the ground lease or sale of all or any portion of the Property to a third-party ground lessee or purchaser.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1.    Right of First Offer. Grantee shall have a continuing first opportunity to ground lease or purchase the Property in the event Grantor (i) elects to place the Property, or any portion thereof, on the market for ground lease or sale to a third party that is not an Affiliate (defined below) of Grantor, or (ii) receives an unsolicited offer to ground lease or sell the Property, or any portion thereof, to a third party that is not an Affiliate of Grantor, upon the terms and conditions set forth below. If Grantor does ground lease or sell the Property in accordance with this Agreement to any third party that is not an Affiliate of Grantor, once Grantor ground leases or sells the Property, Grantee’s right to a first opportunity to ground lease and purchase the Property shall terminate and Grantee shall execute such documents as Grantor may reasonably request to memorialize such termination. For clarity, if Grantor sells or ground leases only a portion of the Property, then the portion retained by Grantor shall remain subject to the terms of this Agreement.

2.    Grantor’s Offer.

(a)    Prior to entering into any agreement with a broker to list the Property for ground lease or sale, Grantor will provide written notice to Grantee of Grantor’s intent to ground lease or sell the Property (“Grantor’s Offer”), which shall contain the material terms, conditions, and rent amount or sale price at which Grantor is willing to ground lease or sell the Property to Grantee, which price shall be reduced by the anticipated Grantor’s broker’s fee. Within thirty (30) days following Grantee’s receipt of Grantor’s Offer, Grantee shall either elect to accept or reject Grantor’s Offer by written notice to Grantor. Grantee’s failure to timely respond to Grantor’s Offer shall be deemed a rejection of Grantor’s Offer. If Grantee timely accepts Grantor’s Offer, Grantor and Grantee will use commercially reasonable, good faith efforts to conclude negotiations and execute a ground lease or purchase and sale agreement, as applicable (a “Lease or Purchase Agreement”), within forty-five (45) days after Grantee’s receipt of Grantor’s Offer. Such Lease or Purchase Agreement shall contain customary lease or purchase agreement terms and provisions for properties of similar use and value as the Property between sophisticated third party institutional buyers and sellers (or lessors and lessees, as applicable) and shall provide for a closing not later than ninety (90) days following the full execution of the Lease or Purchase Agreement. In the event that either Grantee rejects Grantor’s Offer, Grantee accepts Grantor’s Offer but Grantor and Grantee do not reach agreement and execute the Lease or Purchase Agreement within said forty-five (45) day period (after Grantor used commercially reasonable, good faith efforts to conclude negotiations), or Grantor and Grantee do reach agreement and execute a Lease or Purchase Agreement within such forty-five (45) day period but do not close within such ninety (90) day period for any reason other than Grantor’s default, as applicable, then this Agreement shall automatically terminate and Grantor may proceed to sell the Property to a third party, so long as the rent or sale price and terms offered to a third party is not more than five percent (5%) less than the rent or sale price and terms offered to Grantee. In the event that Grantor secures an acceptable offer by a third party at a rent or sale price that is more than five percent (5%) less than the rent or sale price offered to Grantee, then Grantor shall provide written notice to Grantee, and Grantee shall have fifteen (15) days to accept or reject the terms contained in such offer. If such offer is rejected, Grantor shall be free to ground lease or sell the Property to such third party; provided, however, in the event the Property is not ground leased or sold to such third party within six months or Grantor further reduces the rent or sale price or terms, Grantor shall once again be required to issue a Grantor’s Offer to Grantee. If Grantee engages a broker to assist with its acquisition of the Property, then Grantee shall be solely responsible for paying such broker.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Agreement and Grantee’s rights in this Agreement shall not be applicable to a transfer of all or any portion of the Property pursuant to a deed of trust or with respect to any foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure under such deed of trust.

3.    Miscellaneous.

(a)    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina (without regard for the conflict of laws principles thereof).

(b)    Jurisdiction.

THIS EASEMENT AND USE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made by and between USEF EDWARDS MILL OWNER, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (including its successors and assigns, “Phase 1 Owner”) and BANDWIDTH INC., a Delaware corporation (including its successors and assigns, “Phase 2 Owner”) and is effective upon recordation in the Office of the Register of Deeds of Wake County (the “Registry”).

A.    Phase 1 Owner is the owner of that certain parcel of land being more particularly described on Exhibit A (the “Phase 1 Property”).

B.    Phase 2 Owner is the owner of that certain parcel of land adjoining the Phase 1 Property, being more particularly described on Exhibit B (the “Phase 2 Property” and together with the Phase 1 Property, the “Property”).

C.    The Parties desire to enter into this Agreement in order to (i) provide for certain access and easement rights, as more particularly described herein, (ii) agree to certain maintenance and cost-sharing obligations with respect to State Farm Road and (iii) subject the Phase 2 Property to certain restrictions as hereinafter set forth.

    NOW THEREFORE AND WITH CONSIDERATION HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGED:    

Section 1.    Recitals; Exhibits. The recitals set forth above are true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference. All exhibits attached to this Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference.

    Section 2.     Definitions. In addition to any terms whose definitions are fixed and defined elsewhere in this Agreement, each of the following terms, when used herein with an initial capital letter, shall have the following meaning:

    Section 3.    Construction Responsibilities; Temporary Construction Easements. Phase 1 Owner shall be responsible for the construction and installation of the Phase I Owner Work. Subject to the terms of the Lease, Phase 1 Owner shall perform the Phase 1 Owner Work at its sole cost and expense. Phase 2 Owner hereby grants to Phase 1 Owner a temporary construction easement over, upon, across and through those portions of the Phase 2 Property as reasonably necessary to construct and install the Phase 1 Owner Work (the “Temporary Construction Easement”). The Temporary Construction Easement shall automatically expire and terminate upon final completion of the Phase 1 Owner Work without the need for recording any additional instrument evidencing such termination; provided that, upon reasonable request, Phase 1 Owner shall execute a termination of the Temporary Construction Easement in form and substance acceptable to the Parties, such termination to be prepared and recorded by Phase 2 Owner at its cost and expense.

Section 4.    Utility Easements.

    (a)    The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that in connection with the development of the Phase 1 Improvements and the Phase 2 Improvements, each of Phase 1 Owner and Phase 2 Owner will need to construct and install certain utilities on its respective portion of the Property, including, without limitation, for sewer, water, gas, electricity, telecommunications and stormwater (the “Phase 1 Utilities” and the “Phase 2 Utilities”, respectively).

        (i)    Phase 1 Owner does hereby grant to Phase 2 Owner a temporary construction easement over, upon, across and through those portions of the Phase 1 Property to remain undeveloped pursuant to the plans for the Phase 1 Improvements, as depicted on Exhibit C, as may be reasonably necessary to construct and install the Phase 2 Utilities in the future (the “Phase 2 Temporary Construction Easement”). The Phase 2 Temporary Construction Easement shall run with title as a burden upon the Phase 1 Property and shall inure to the benefit of the Phase 2 Property. The Phase 2 Temporary Construction Easement shall automatically expire and terminate upon final completion of the Phase 2 Utilities without the need for recording any additional instrument evidencing such termination; provided that, upon reasonable request, Phase 2 Owner shall execute a termination of the Phase 2 Temporary Construction Easement in form and substance acceptable to the Parties, such termination to be prepared and recorded by Phase 1

Owner at its cost and expense. Notwithstanding a termination of the Phase 2 Temporary Construction Easement, the Phase 2 Maintenance Easement (hereinafter defined) shall remain in full force and effect, as applicable and as provided herein. If Phase 2 Owner elects to construct and install any Phase 2 Utilities it shall be responsible for one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of such construction and installation (except for any damage caused by a Phase 1 Party). Construction of the Phase 2 Utilities shall be performed in compliance with all laws and Phase 2 Owner shall promptly pay for all work and materials when due so that the Phase 1 Property remains free of liens for labor and materials.

    Prior to commencing any work on the Phase 2 Utilities that will require Phase 2 Owner to use the Phase 2 Temporary Construction Easement, Phase 2 Owner shall (i) notify Phase 1 Owner of (w) the approximate start and finish date of the work on the Phase 2 Utilities, (x) the approximate location of the Phase 2 Temporary Construction Easement based on plans developed or to be developed in the future for the Phase 2 Utilities, (y) the approximate location of the Phase 2 Utilities based on plans developed or to be developed in the future for the Phase 2 Utilities (the location of the Phase 2 Utilities shall be subject to Phase 1 Owner’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (z) cause its contractors to carry and maintain the insurance required herein, and all other insurance policies customary for a contractor to carry in connection with the work being performed, naming Phase 1 Owner as an additional insured. Phase 2 Owner shall use the Phase 2 Temporary Construction Easement in a manner as to not unreasonably interfere with a Phase 1 Party’s use of and access to the Phase 1 Property and the Phase 1 Utilities and upon commencement of the construction of the Phase 2 Utilities, Phase 2 Owner shall complete same as soon as reasonably practicable. Phase 2 Owner, at its cost and expense, shall repair any damage to the Phase 1 Property caused by the construction and installation of the Phase 2 Utilities, and shall restore the Phase 1 Property to the condition existing prior to any such construction and installation of the Phase 2 Utilities.

        (ii)    Phase 2 Owner hereby approves the Phase 1 Utilities shown on Exhibit D attached hereto. In connection with the construction and installation of the Phase 1 Utilities, Phase 2 Owner does hereby grant to Phase 1 Owner a temporary construction easement over, upon, across and through the Phase 2 Property (the “Phase 1 Temporary Construction Easement”). The Phase 1 Temporary Construction Easement shall run with title as a burden upon the Phase 2 Property and shall inure to the benefit of the Phase 1 Property. The Phase 1 Temporary Construction Easement shall automatically expire and terminate upon final completion of the Phase 1 Utilities without the need for recording any additional instrument evidencing such termination; provided that, upon reasonable request, Phase 1 Owner shall execute a termination of the Phase 1 Temporary Construction Easement in form and substance acceptable to the Parties, such termination to be prepared and recorded by Phase 2 Owner at its cost and expense. Notwithstanding a termination of the Phase 1 Temporary Construction Easement, the Phase 1 Maintenance Easement (hereinafter defined) shall remain in full force and effect, as provided herein.

        The Phase 1 Utilities shall be constructed and installed by Phase 1 Owner at its sole cost and expense (except as expressly provided in the Lease). Construction of the Phase 1 Utilities shall be performed in compliance with all laws and Phase 1 Owner shall promptly pay for all work and materials when due so that the Phase 2 Property remains free of liens for labor and materials. During the construction and installation of the Phase 1 Utilities, Phase 1 Owner shall cause its contractors to carry and maintain the insurance required herein, and all other insurance policies customary for a contractor to carry in connection with the work being performed, naming

Phase 2 Owner as an additional insured. For the avoidance of doubt, the Phase 1 Utilities include those utilities located on both the Phase 1 Property and the Phase 2 Property, as shown on Exhibit D attached hereto.

        If, at any time after installation of the Phase 1 Utilities is complete, Phase 1 Owner needs to install additional Phase 1 Utilities on the Phase 2 Property, then Phase 2 Owner hereby grants to Phase 1 Owner the rights granted to Phase 2 Owner by Phase 1 Owner under Section 4(a)(i) hereof, and Phase 1 Owner hereby acknowledges and agrees such rights shall be subject to the applicable terms and conditions set forth in Section 4(a)(i).

    (iii)    Phase 1 Owner hereby grants to Phase 2 Owner, and Phase 2 Owner hereby grants to Phase 1 Owner, the ongoing right to connect to any existing Phase 1 Utilities or Phase 2 Utilities, as applicable, provided such connection shall not affect the Utility Connection Owner’s (as defined below) access to and use of its existing utilities. The location of such connection shall be subject to the consent of the owner of the Property on which the connection shall be made (the “Utility Connection Owner”).

    (iv)    For purposes hereof, “Phase 2 Utilities” shall mean any utilities installed by Phase 2 Owner after Phase 1 Owner has completed the Phase 1 Owner Work and the installation of the Phase 1 Utilities.

    (b)    Phase 1 Owner hereby grants to Phase 2 Owner, and Phase 2 Owner hereby grants to Phase 1 Owner, (i) a perpetual , non-exclusive easement running 15 feet on either side of the pipe, line or conduit installed as a Phase 1 Utility or the Phase 2 Utility, respectively, and (ii) a perpetual, non-exclusive, reciprocal easement over, on, through and across the Phase 1 Property and the Phase 2 Property, respectively, as may be reasonably necessary for the maintenance, repair and replacement of the Phase 1 Utilities and the Phase 2 Utilities by Phase 1 Owner and Phase 2 Owner, respectively (the “Phase 1 Maintenance Easement” and the “Phase 2 Maintenance Easement”, respectively).

    (c)    To the extent there exists, or shall exist, any utilities or related facilities that service both the Phase 1 Property and the Phase 2 Property (“Shared Utility” or “Shared Utilities”), Phase 2 Owner shall be responsible for performing any maintenance, repair or replacement of such Shared Utilities, at its cost, provided that Phase 1 Owner shall reimburse Phase 2 Owner for its Usage Share of the applicable Maintenance Costs, which reimbursement shall be made within thirty (30) days following Phase 1 Owner’s receipt of an invoice therefor, along with any other supporting documentation reasonably requested by Phase 1 Owner, from Phase 2 Owner.

    Section 5.    Cross-Access Easements. Phase 1 Owner does hereby grant and convey to Phase 2 Owner, for the benefit of all Phase 2 Parties, and Phase 2 Owner does hereby grant and convey to Phase 1 Owner, for the benefit of all Phase 1 Parties, a perpetual, non-exclusive, reciprocal easement over, on, through and across the Private Roads, as applicable, for vehicular and, if applicable, pedestrian ingress and egress (the “Cross-Access Easement”). Subject to temporary closures in connection with maintenance and repair, Phase 1 Owner and Phase 2 Owner hereby acknowledge and confirm that each of said Parties is entitled to the unrestricted, non-exclusive use of the Private Roads for pedestrian, vehicular and bicycle ingress and egress, and that each of said Parties shall use the Private Roads in a manner as to not unreasonably interfere with the rights granted to the other Party under this Agreement. Each Party, at its sole cost and expense, shall maintain, repair and replace the Private Roads on their respective Property; provided, however, each Party (for purposes of this Section 5, the “Responsible Party”) shall be responsible for the cost of any maintenance, repair or replacement of the Private Roads located on the

non-Responsible Party’s portion of the Property required due to the negligence or willful misconduct of the Responsible Party, its agents, employees, tenants, customers or invitees.

Section 6.    Parking and Access Easements.

    (a)    Phase 2 Owner hereby grants and conveys to Phase 1 Owner a temporary construction easement over, upon, across and through those portions of the Phase 2 Property as reasonably necessary to construct (as described on Exhibit E attached hereto), install and remove the Temporary Parking Area (the “Temporary Parking Construction Easement”). Phase 1 Owner shall have the option, but not the obligation, to construct the Temporary Parking Area in connection with the State Fair, and if Phase 1 Owner elects to construct the Temporary Parking Area, such construction shall be at Phase 1 Owner’s cost and expense. The Temporary Parking Construction Easement shall automatically expire and terminate on November 30, 2021 without the need for recording any additional instrument evidencing such termination.

(b)    If the Temporary Parking Area is constructed by Phase 1 Owner, then Phase 2 Owner hereby grants and conveys to Phase 1 Owner, for the benefit of all Phase 1 Parties and the attendees of the State Fair, a temporary easement for the parking of motor vehicles in the Temporary Parking Area (the “Parking Easement”) during the calendar month of October 2021.

(c)    If the Temporary Parking Area is constructed by Phase 1 Owner, then Phase 2 Owner hereby grants and conveys to Phase 1 Owner, for the benefit of all Phase 1 Parties and the attendees of the State Fair, a non-exclusive easement over, on, through and across the Phase 2 Property as reasonably necessary to access the Temporary Parking Area from the adjacent public rights of way (the “Parking Access Easement”).

(d)    Each of the Parking Easement and the Parking Access Easement shall automatically expire and terminate on October 31, 2021 without the need for recording any additional instrument evidencing such termination.

In the event Phase 2 Owner does not timely or fully comply with its obligations as set forth in the Maintenance Agreement, and such failure by the Phase 2 Owner materially and adversely affects Phase 1 Owner’s access to and use of State Farm Road and continues for sixty (60) days after Phase 2 Owner’s receipt of notice thereof from Phase 1 Owner (provided, that such time period shall be extended day for day for any force majeure event), Phase 1 Owner shall have the right to perform or complete such unsatisfied obligations and Phase 2 Owner shall reimburse Phase 1 Owner for its Proportionate Share of the out-of-pocket costs incurred by Phase 1 Owner in connection with such work within thirty (30) days following its receipt of an invoice therefor, along with any other supporting documentation reasonably requested by the Phase 2 Owner, from the Phase 1 Owner.
