Term of Lease. EVWD leases the Premises from the Agency for a period of 24 consecutive months (the "Term"), commencing on the date of execution of this Lease by the Agency, as set forth next to the signature of the authorized representative of the Agency on this Lease. Following the initial Term of this Lease, EVWD may continue to occupy the Premises on a month-to-month basis, not to exceed an aggregate of 12 months in addition to the initial Term of this Lease. If during the Term, EVWD no longer requires the use of the Premises for the allowable uses set forth in Section 3, EVWD may terminate this Lease, upon 30 days written notice to the Agency delivered in accordance with Section 11. If EVWD terminates this Lease during the Term, in accordance with the previous sentence, EVWD will not be obligated to pay Rent (as defined in Section 2) for the remainder of the Term, following the 30th day after the effective date of EVWD's notice of termination under Section 11. 2. Rent. EVWD will pay the Agency $1,600.00 per month during the initial Term of this Lease. If EVWD continues to occupy the Premises on a month-to-month basis following the expiration of the original Term of this Lease, as provided in Section 1, EVWD will pay the Agency $1,600.00 per month during the first 6 months following the expiration of the initial term of this Lease. If EVWD continues to occupy the Premises on a month-to- month basis more than 6 months after the expiration of the original Term of this Lease, EVWD will pay the Agency $3,200.00 per month for each month it occupies the Premises more than 6 months after the expiration of the original Term of this Lease. 3. Allowable Uses. EVWD may only use the Premises for the following uses: A. Storage of soil excavated for installation of new underground water tank to replace existing water tank located near the intersection of Foothill Drive and Sterling Avenue; and B. Placement of a temporary construction trailer/office for EVWD's prime contractor for the underground water tank installation; and C. Storage of construction materials and equipment required for installation of the EVWD's new underground water tank; and D. Any other use of the Premises that is approved in writing by the Executive Director of the Agency, prior to the commencement of such use. 4. Storm Water Pollution Plan. EVWD must prepare an appropriate Storm Water Pollution Plan and obtain any necessary NPDES Permit for its operations or the operations of its contractors on the Premises. 5. Premises Maintenance and Security. EVWD must provide security for the Premises, including without limitation, temporary fencing around all portions of the Premises and security guard/patrol services, if necessary. Additionally, EVWD must maintain the Premises in a clean and orderly manner and in a safe condition for construction sites of 2 S82001 :1332.4 similar type and magnitude. 6. Insurance. Prior to occupying the Premises, EVWD must furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Agency duplicate originals or appropriate certificates of public indemnity and liability insurance in the amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) combined single limit, naming the Agency and the City as additional insureds. Said insurance must cover comprehensive general liability including, but not limited to, contractual liability; acts of subcontractors; premises-operations; explosion, collapse and underground hazards, if applicable; broad form property damage, and personal injury including libel, slander and false arrest. In addition, EVWD must provide to the Agency adequate proof of comprehensive automobile liability insurance covering owned, non- owned and hired vehicles, combined single limit in the amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) each occurrence; and proof of workers' compensation insurance. Any and all insurance policies required under this Lease must be obtained from insurance companies admitted in the State of California and rated at least B+: XII in Best's Insurance Guide. All insurance policies must provide that they may not be canceled or materially altered unless the Agency and the City receive written notice of cancellation or alteration at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the effective date of cancellation or alteration. Any and all insurance obtained by EVWD in satisfaction of the requirements of this Section 6 will be primary to any and all insurance that the Agency and/or City may otherwise carry, including self insurance, which for all purposes of this Lease will be separate and apart from the requirements of this Lease. Any insurance policies covering the Premises as obtained by the Agency will not be transferred from the Agency to EVWD. Appropriate insurance means those insurance policies approved by Agency legal counsel consistent with this Lease. Any and all insurance required under this Lease shall be maintained and kept in force until the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if EVWD is self-insured under a bona fide public entity self-insurance program, evidence of such self-insurance program acceptable to Agency legal counsel will satisfy the insurance requirements set forth in this Section 6. 7. Restoration of the Premises at End of Lease Term. A. Upon execution of this Lease, the parties hereto shall meet and confer in a coordinated effort to reach mutual agreement on the selection of an environmental consultant to be retained by EVWD, at its sole cost and expense, for the purpose of conducting an independent environmental assessment of the Premises, including without limitation the sampling of soil thereon and issuing a report on the environmental condition of the Premises as it exists at the commencement of the Term.

If the parties hereto cannot reach agreement on the above matters within 45 days of the date of this Agreement, or any extension thereof mutually agreed upon in writing by both parties hereto, this Lease may be terminated by either party by delivery of written notice to the other party, without incurring any loss or liability therefor.

EVWD shall not take possession of the Premises by entry or otherwise, other than limited entry onto the Premises for EVWD's consultant to perform the environmental assessment activities mutually agreed upon, until EVWD has accepted the environmental condition of the Premises set forth in its consultant's report or waived the requirement of such report. If the results of said consultant's report are not satisfactory to EVWD, EVWD may terminate this Lease at any time prior to taking possession of the Premises, without incurring any loss or liability. EVWD shall require that the consultant agree in a written contract between EVWD and the consultant that the Agency may rely on the report of the consultant and all supporting information and data for any purpose.

EVWD shall reimburse the Agency for all costs and expenses associated with retaining said environmental consultant for assessment of the Premises and compilation of a report, within thirty (30) days of demand for reimbursement from the Agency. A copy of the consultant's report shall be delivered to the EVWD within five (5) days of Agency's receipt thereof. The Agency shall require that the consultant agree in a written contract between the Agency and the consultant that the EVWD may rely on the report of the consultant and all supporting information and data, including any remedial action recommendations of the consultant, for any purpose. C. Prior to expiration or termination of this Lease, EVWD must restore the Premises to its condition before EVWD's use or occupancy of the Premises (as reflected in the report issued pursuant to Section 7.A. of the Lease), as reasonably determined by the independent environmental 4 S82001:1332.4 consultant retained pursuant to Section 7.B. of this Lease, including without limitation, removal of any fencing, removal of any construction trailer/office, removal of construction materials, supplies and equipment, trash and grading the Premises to its original contours, elevations and compaction, ensuring or restoring the original soil content such that no hazardous substances or materials or concentrations or quantities of hazardous substances or materials are allowed to remain on the Premises that did not exist on the Premises prior to EVWD taking possession of the Premises. Also, EVWD will restore the vegetation that existed on the Premises prior to EVWD using or occupying the Premises. 8. Indemnification. A. Excepting the active negligence or willful misconduct of the Agency and subject to Section 8.B. of this Lease, EVWD shall indemnify and hold the Agency and its officers, directors, agents, consultants, attorneys and employees, harmless from and against all claims and liabilities of any kind arising out of, in connection with, or resulting from, any and all acts or omissions on the part of EVWD and/or its agents, contractors, consultants, and employees occurring during the Term in connection with the Project, the performance oftheir obligations under this Lease, or their use and/or occupancy of the Premises, and defend the Agency and its officers, directors, agents, consultants, attorneys and employees from any suits or actions at law or in equity and to pay all court costs and counsel fees incurred in connection therewith.

With respect to all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, demands, actions, judgments, causes of action, assessments, penalties, costs, regulatory fines, compliance and remediation costs, expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonably fees and disbursements of legal counsel, expert witnesses, and accountants), and all foreseeable and unforeseeable consequential damages which might arise or be asserted against the Agency and/or EVWD with regard to the presence or any increase in the concentration or quantity of any "Hazardous Materials" (as such term is defined in Exhibit "B" attached hereto) on, in, under, or affecting all or any portion of the Premises, EVWD shall defend, indemnify, and hold the Agency and its officers, directors, agents, consultants, attorneys and employees harmless therefrom only to the extent that: (1) the presence, concentration or quantity of any Hazardous Materials were not reported to be present on the Premises in the report issued pursuant to Section 7.A. of this Lease, (2) the presence or increased concentration or quantity of any Hazardous Materials are expressly reported to be present on the Premises in the report issued pursuant to Section 7.B. of this Lease and (3) any newly reported presence, or increased concentration or quantity of any 5 8B2001:1332.4 Hazardous Materials identified in the report issued pursuant to Section 7.B. (in comparison with the report issued pursuant to Section 7.A.) is not appropriately remediated by EVWD, as reasonably determined by the independent environmental consultant retained pursuant to Sections 7.B. and 7.C. of this Lease. Any presence of Hazardous Materials on the Premises identified in the report issued pursuant to Section 7.B. that was not identified in the report issued pursuant to Section 7.A. shall be considered a new presence, or increased concentration or quantity of Hazardous Materials for the purposes of this section. 9. Default and Remedies. Failure or delay by either party to perform any term or provision of this Lease is a material default under this Lease. IfEVWD fails to pay any monetary obligation owed to the Agency under this Lease when it is due, the Agency may provide written notice of the monetary default to EVWD. IF EVWD does not cure the monetary default within 5 days of the mailing of the notice of default by the Agency, the Agency may terminate this Lease by written notice to EVWD, which shall be effective at the time of mailing by the Agency.

A. The injured party must give written notice of the non-monetary default to the party in default, specifying the default complained of by the nondefaulting party. Delay in giving this notice is not a waiver of any default nor does it change the time of default. B. Any failure or delays by either party in asserting any of their rights and/or remedies as to any default does not operate as a waiver of any default or of any such rights or remedies. Delays by either party in asserting any oftheir rights and/or remedies do not deprive either party of its right to institute and maintain any actions or proceedings that it deems necessary to protect, assert or enforce any such rights or remedies. C. In addition to any other rights or remedies, either party may institute legal action to cure, correct or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with this Lease. Any such legal actions must be instituted in the Superior Court of the State of California in and for the County of San Bernardino or any other appropriate court within the County of San Bernardino, or in the Federal District Court for the Central District of California located in the County of Riverside, California. 6 582001:1332.4 D. The rights and remedies of the parties set forth in this Section are cumulative and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights or remedies does not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party. 10.
