acknowledged by the parties:
SECTION 1. RECITALS.

located in Ada County, Idaho, more particularly described and/or depicted on Exhibit "A"
attached hereto (the "Right -of -Way").
1.2 Licensee desires a license to use the Right -of -Way for the limited
purposes hereinafter set forth, and, for the consideration and on the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth, ACHD is willing to extend such license to Licensee.
SECTION 2. LICENSE; LICENSE NOT EXCLUSIVE.
2.1 On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, ACHD hereby extends
to Licensee a license on, over, across and under the Right -of -Way for the following
uses and purposes ("Authorized Use") and no others:
Installation, maintenance, repair and replacement of no more than twenty (20)
thermoplastic distance markers on sidewalks and multi -use pathways in the
locations identified on Exhibit "A" attached hereto. Distance markers shall be no
larger than twelve (12) inches in diameter and shall conform to the design on
Exhibit "B" attached hereto. Distance markers shall be skid -resistant and shall
not create impediments or safety hazards for sidewalk users.
2.2 This Agreement does not extend to Licensee the right to use the Right -of -
Way to the exclusion of ACHD for any use within its jurisdiction, authority and discretion
or of others to the extent authorized by law to use public right-of-way. If the Right -of -
Way has been opened as a public Highway (as used in the Agreement, the term
TEMPORARY LICENSE AGREEMENT - Page 1
"Highway" is as defined in Idaho Code § 40-109(5)), Licensee's Authorized Use is
subject to the rights of the public to use the Right -of -Way for Highway
purposes. Licensee's Authorized Use is also subject to the rights of holders of
easements of record or obvious on inspection of the Right -of -Way and statutory rights
of utilities to use the public right-of-way. This Agreement is not intended to, and shall
not, preclude or impede the ability of ACHD to enter into other similar agreements in the
future allowing third parties to also use its public rights-of-way, or the ability of ACHD to
redesign, reconstruct, relocate, maintain and improve its public rights-of-way and
Highways as authorized by law and as it determines, in its sole discretion, is
appropriate.
SECTION 3. CONSTRUCTION, OR INSTALLATION OF IMPROVEMENTS. Any
repairs or maintenance of the Licensee's improvements currently located in the Right -
of -Way or the installation or construction of improvements by Licensee in the Right -of -
Way as permitted by the Authorized Use (the "Improvements") shall be accomplished in
accordance with designs, plans and specifications approved in advance and in writing
by ACHD as required to satisfy applicable laws, its policies and good engineering
practices. In approving such plans and specifications, ACHD assumes no responsibility
for any deficiencies or inadequacies in the design or construction of the Improvements,
and the responsibility therefor shall be and remain in Licensee.
SECTION 4. WAIVER AND ESTOPPEL STATEMENT BY LICENSEE. Licensee
acknowledges and agrees that the license granted herein is temporary, non-
transferable and merely a permissive use of the Right -of -Way pursuant to this
Agreement. Licensee further acknowledges and agrees that it specifically assumes the
risk that the license pursuant to this Agreement may be terminated before Licensee has
realized the economic benefit of the cost of installing, constructing, repairing or
maintaining the Improvements, and Licensee hereby waives and estops itself from
asserting any claim that the license is in any way irrevocable because Licensee has
expended funds on the Improvements and the Agreement has not been in effect for a
period sufficient for Licensee to realize the economic benefit from such expenditures.
SECTION 5. TERM.
5.1 The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date, and
shall continue until terminated by either party, with or without cause, which termination
shall be effective following thirty (30) days' advance written notice of termination given
to the other party.
5.2 If Licensee defaults in the performance of any obligations incumbent upon
it to perform hereunder, ACHD may terminate this Agreement and the rights extended
to Licensee hereunder at any time, effective at the end of thirty (30) days following the
date ACHD shall provide written notice of termination to Licensee, which notice shall
specify such default(s). Licensee shall have such thirty (30) day period to correct and
cure the specified defaults, and if so corrected and cured, to the satisfaction of ACHD,
this Agreement shall not be terminated but shall continue in full force and effect.

SECTION 6. FEE. There is no fee for Licensee's Authorized Use of the Right -of -Way
under this Agreement.
SECTION 7. MAINTENANCE; FAILURE TO MAINTAIN; RELOCATION OF UTILITIES.
7.1 At its sole cost and expense, Licensee shall maintain the Improvements in
good condition and repair and as required to satisfy applicable laws, the policies of
ACHD and sound engineering practices. Licensee shall have access over, across and
under the Right -of -Way for the purposes of accomplishing such repair and
maintenance.
7.2 If the Highway on and/or adjacent to the Right -of -Way is damaged as a
result of:
(i) the performance by Licensee of the maintenance required by section 7.1,
or the failure or neglect to perform such maintenance; and/or
(ii) Licensee's design, installation or use of the Improvements, regardless of
cause;
at its sole cost and expense Licensee shall forthwith correct such deficiency and restore
the Highway and the surface of the Right -of -Way to the same condition it was in prior
thereto, and if Licensee shall fail or neglect to commence such correction and
restoration within twenty-four (24) hours of notification thereof, ACHD may proceed to
do so, in which event Licensee agrees to reimburse ACHD for the costs and expenses
thereof, including, without limitation, reasonable compensation for the use of staff and
equipment of ACHD.
7.3 Notwithstanding the provisions of section 7.2, should an emergency exist
related to the Licensee's use of this license which threatens the stability or function of
the Highway on or adjacent to the Right -of -Way or the safety of the public use thereof,
ACHD shall have the right to immediately perform, on behalf of and at the cost of
Licensee, necessary emergency repairs.
7.4 Licensee shall be responsible for the relocation of any existing utilities
located on the Right -of -Way as may be required in connection with any construction or
installation of Improvements by Licensee in the Right -of -Way.
SECTION 8. RELOCATION OF IMPROVEMENTS. If during the term of this
Agreement ACHD requires, in its sole discretion, at any time, and from time to time, that
the Highway on and/or adjacent to the Right -of -Way be widened and/or realigned,
redesigned, improved and/or reconstructed, Licensee hereby accepts responsibility for
all costs for relocating, modifying or otherwise adapting the Improvements to such
realignment and/or relocation and/or reconstruction if required by ACHD, which shall be
accomplished by Licensee according to designs, plans and specifications approved in
advance by ACHD in writing; provided, Licensee may elect to terminate this Agreement
in lieu of complying with this responsibility, and further provided ACHD gives Licensee
TEMPORARY LICENSE AGREEMENT - Page 3
adequate written notice as necessary to allow Licensee to redesign, relocate, modify or
adapt the Improvements to the realignment and/or relocation and/or reconstruction of
the Highway and also licenses Licensee such additional area of its right-of-way, if any,
as may be necessary for the proper operation of the Improvements.
SECTION 9. PERMIT. If the proposed construction and installation of the
Improvements, or any reconstruction, relocation or maintenance thereof, requires
Licensee to obtain a permit under ACHD policies, Licensee shall first obtain such permit
from ACHD (Construction Services Division) before commencing such work, pay the
required fees and otherwise comply with the conditions set forth therein.
SECTION 10. NO TITLE IN LICENSEE. Licensee shall have no right, title or interest in
or to the Right -of -Way other than the right to temporarily use the same pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement.
SECTION 11. NO COSTS TO ACHD. Any and all costs and expenses associated with
Licensee's Authorized Use of the Right -of -Way, or any construction or installation of
Improvements thereon, or the repair and maintenance thereof, or the relocation of
Improvements or utilities thereon, or the restoration thereof at the termination of this
Agreement, shall be at the sole cost and expense of Licensee.
SECTION 12. TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS. Licensee agrees to pay all special
assessments and personal property taxes that may be levied and assessed on the
Improvements during the term of this Agreement.
SECTION 13. RESTORATION ON TERMINATION. Upon termination of this
Agreement, Licensee shall promptly remove all Improvements and restore the Right -of -
Way to at least its present condition, less ordinary wear and tear. Should Licensee fail
or neglect to promptly remove the Improvements and restore the Right -of -Way, ACHD
may do so and assess Licensee for the costs thereof. Provided, ACHD and Licensee
may agree in writing that some or all of such Improvements are to remain on the Right -
of -Way following termination, and by entering into such an agreement Licensee thereby
disclaims all right, title and interest in and to the same, and hereby grants such
Improvements to ACHD, at no cost. Further provided, if the Authorized Use of the
Right -of -Way under this Agreement is for landscaping in ACHD right-of-way and the
irrigation and maintenance thereof, and the general purpose government with
jurisdiction has adopted ordinances, rules and regulations governing the landscaping
and maintenance of such right-of-way by owners of the adjacent property, to the extent
such owners are obligated to maintain and irrigate the landscaping Licensee need not
remove the same from the Right -of -Way.
SECTION 14. INDEMNIFICATION. Licensee hereby indemnifies and holds ACHD
harmless from and against any and all claims or actions for loss, injury, death,
damages, mechanics and other liens arising out of the failure or neglect of Licensee,
Licensee's employees, contractors and agents to properly and reasonably make
Authorized Use of the Right -of -Way or properly construct, install, plant, repair or
maintain the Improvements thereon, or that otherwise result from the use and

Agreement Licensee covenants and agrees to: (i) comply with and observe in all
