September 1, 2009 (the "Purchase Agreement") whereby the City agreed to sell and
Grantee agreed to . purchase the property commonly known as 425 Dempster Street,
Evanston, Illinois, which is more particularly described on Exhibit A attached hereto and

WHEREAS, the City owns record title to Curry Park which is directly adjacent to

hereto and made a part hereof (the "City Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Purchase Agreement contemplated that the City may grant
certain easements to Grantee over and across the City Property in order to continue to use
and occupy ' the Benefited Property and to permit Grantee to complete certain
improvements to the Benefited Property, including but not limited to the construction of a
new addition to the existing improvements in substitution of the existing building
addition; and
WHEREAS, contemporaneous with execution and delivery of this Declaration,
• the City is conveying the Benefited Property to Grantee in accordance with the Purchase
Agreement
96231.4
N
To that end, the parties hereto agree as follows: •
1. Maintenance and Construction Easement. The City hereby grants to
Grantee, from time to time, a non-exclusive easement under, over and through the City
Property for the purpose of allowing Grantee to maintain, repair, replace and construct
existing and future improvements located on the Benefited Property (the "Construction
Easement"). The Construction Easement shall be subject to the following terms and
conditions:
a. At least thirty (30) days prior to Grantee's use or occupation of any of
the City Property pursuant to the Construction Easement (except in the
case of emergency where subsequent notice shall be permitted),
Grantee shall send written notice to the City Manager detailing the
scope and manner of Grantee's use and occupation of the City
Property. Grantee shall use reasonable efforts to minimize Grantee's
use of the City Property for the Construction Easement.
b. The Construction Easement shall include the right of Grantee to (i)
stage construction materials and equipment used in connection with
the maintenance, repair, replacement and construction of
improvements located on the Benefited Property and (ii) to enter upon
such portions of the City Property as may be reasonable and necessary
to effectuate the purpose of the Construction Easement. •

easement under, over and through the City Property (the "No Build Easement") and
hereby covenants to not build or erect any improvements on that portion of the City
Property shown on Exhibit C, attached hereto and made a part hereof, and described as
the "No Build Easement" (the "No Build Easement Area"). The purpose of the No

Benefited Property will comply with required setbacks from other structures imposed by
the Evanston Building Code. Subject to the terms of this Declaration, the City reserves
and retains the right to use and occupy the No Build Easement Area so long as no

requirement imposed by the Evanston Building Code.

development of any future improvements on the Benefited Property, subject to the City's
approval of such location, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed. The City acknowledges that those portions of the City Property shown cross-
hatched on Exhibit D. attached hereto and made a part hereof are acceptable locations for
the Storm Water Facilities. The Storm Water Easement shall include the right to enter in
a reasonable manner upon adjacent and contiguous property outside of the Storm Water
Easement Area as shall be reasonable and necessary for the purpose of access to the
Storm Water Area to exercise the rights and perform the obligations as set forth herein.
