as is determined by the non-defaulting party to be necessary to cure such default, provided the

Rights of the United States of America 
 
 
7.1 
This License is subject to the paramount rights and regulatory jurisdiction of the USA 
in and to the Licensed Property, federal reclamation law, and all agreements existing and to be made 
between and among the USA, the Association, and Licensor regarding the management, care, 
operation and maintenance of the Reclamation Project.   
 
 
7.2 
The USA reserves the right of its officers, agents, and employees at all times to have 
unrestricted access and ingress to, passage over, and egress from all of said lands, to make 
investigations of all kinds, dig test pits and drill test holes, to survey for and construct reclamation and 
irrigation works and other structures incident to Federal Reclamation Projects, or for any purpose 
whatsoever.  The USA will make every reasonable effort to keep damages to a minimum. 
 
8. 
Successors and Assigns 
 
 
The privileges granted to Licensee herein shall not inure to or benefit any person or entity 
other than Licensee, either through assignment or sublicense. Any attempt by Licensee to so assign 
or sublicense all or any portion of the Licensed Property for any purpose whatsoever shall void this 
License.  
 
9. 
Termination of the License 
 
 
9.1 
Either party or the USA may terminate this License without cause upon not less than 
thirty (30) days written notice.  
 
 
9.2 
The USA or Licensor may, at any time and at no cost or liability to the USA or 
Licensor, terminate this License if the USA or Licensor determines that any of the following apply: 
 
 
 
(i) The use has become incompatible with authorized project purposes, project 
operations, safety, and security; 
 
 
 
(ii) A higher public use is identified through a public process described at 43 CFR § 
429.32(a)(1); or 
 
 
 
(iii) Termination is necessary for operational needs of the project.  
 
 
9.3 
The USA or Licensor may, at any time and at no cost or liability to the USA or 
Licensor, terminate this License if the USA or Licensor determines that the Licensee has failed to use 
the Licensed Property for its intended purpose.  Further, failure to construct improvements pursuant 
to Section 15 hereof within the timeframe specified in the terms of the License may constitute a 
presumption of abandonment of the requested use and cause termination of the License. 
 
 
 
 
9.4 
Upon the expiration, termination, or revocation of this License, if all License Fees and

Page 5 of 17 
 
USA Fee License – County with no fee final license rev 6 (03‐31‐2017 JAG).doc 
 
damage claims due the USA and Licensor have been paid, the Licensee shall remove all structures, 
equipment, or other improvements made by it from the Licensed Property at no cost to the USA or 
Licensor.  Upon failure to remove any such improvements within thirty (30) days of the expiration, 
termination, or revocation, any remaining improvements shall, at the option of the USA or Licensor, 
be removed or become the property of the USA or Licensor.  The Licensee shall pay all expenses of 
the USA or Licensor, or their assigns, related to the removal of such improvements.

Property 
 
 
10.1 
Licensee, at its own expense, shall maintain all of the Licensed Property in reasonably 
good, sanitary and safe condition.  Subject to the conditions set forth herein, Licensor reserves to itself 
and Association, a right of access to the Licensed Property for the construction, use, operation, 
maintenance, relocation and removal of any existing and future electric or water distribution or 
transmission facilities.  Any such construction, use, operation, maintenance, relocation or removal 
shall be performed in a manner designed to avoid, to the extent feasible, disturbance to Licensee's 
improvements and Licensee's use and enjoyment of the Licensed Property.  Licensor shall give 
Licensee at least ninety (90) days prior written notice of any such construction, use, operation, 
maintenance, relocation or removal that will materially disrupt Licensee's use and enjoyment of the 
Licensed Property or the Licensee's improvements; provided, however, that such notice may be given 
in such shorter period as Licensor determines to be reasonable under prevailing circumstances, or 
with no notice in the event of an emergency where no notice is feasible.  Nothing in this License shall 
be construed to deny or lessen the powers and privileges granted Licensor by the laws of the State of 
Arizona.  Licensor shall not be liable to Licensee for any damage to Licensee's improvements located 
upon the Licensed Property, unless due to negligent or willful acts or omissions of Licensor or its 
agents or employees.   
 
 
10.2 
If Licensee defaults in the performance of the obligations set forth in Section 10.1, 
and Licensor gives notice of the default, Licensee shall correct such default to the reasonable 
satisfaction of Licensor within the required period of time set forth in the notice of default (the 
"Correction Period"), which period of time shall be reasonable under the circumstances.  If Licensee 
fails to correct the default within the Correction Period, Licensor may take any action reasonably 
determined by Licensor to be necessary to correct such default, including without limitation making 
any repair or modification to or removing any of Licensee's improvements.  Licensee shall reimburse 
Licensor for the reasonable costs it incurs to correct such default within thirty (30) days after Licensor 
presents Licensee with a statement of such costs.  Licensee shall release Licensor and Association 
from all damages resulting to Licensee from the correction of such default, including, without 
limitation, those damages arising from all repairs or modifications to or removal of any of Licensee's 
improvements.

License or by law.  Such obligation to indemnify shall extend to and encompass all costs incurred by 
Licensor in defending against such claims, demands, lawsuits or actions, including but not limited to 
attorney, witness and expert witness fees, and any other litigation related expenses.  Indemnitors’ 
obligation pursuant to this Section shall not extend to any damage, loss or liability as a result of any 
claim, demand, lawsuit or action of any kind, whether such damage, loss or liability is to person or 
property arising out of, resulting from or caused by the sole, exclusive acts or omissions of 
Indemnitees, their contractors, directors, officers, employees, agents, successors or assigns for which 
Licensor shall indemnify, release and hold harmless Indemnitors. Licensor’s obligation to indemnify
