Rights of the United States of America 
 
 
6.1 
This License is subject to the paramount rights and regulatory jurisdiction of the U.S.A. 
in and to the Licensed Property, federal reclamation law, and all agreements existing and to be made 
between and among the U.S.A., the Association and Licensor regarding the management, care, operation 
and maintenance of the Reclamation Project.   
 
 
6.2 
The U.S.A. 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 
U.S.A. will make every reasonable effort to keep damages to a minimum. 
 
6.3  
The U.S.A., acting through the Bureau of Reclamation (“Reclamation”), Department of the 
Interior, reserves rights to construct, operate, and maintain public works now or hereafter authorized by 
the Congress without liability for termination of the License or other damage to Licensee’s activities or 
facilities. 
7. 
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 assign or sublicense 
all or any portion of the Licensed Property for any purpose whatsoever shall be void.  
 
8. 
Termination of the License 
 
 
8.1 
Either party or the U.S.A. may terminate this License without cause upon not less than 
thirty (30) days’ written notice.  
 
 
8.2 
The U.S.A. or Licensor may, at any time and at no cost or liability to the U.S.A. or 
Licensor, terminate this License if the U.S.A.  or Licensor determines that any of the following apply: 
 
 
 
(i) The use has become incompatible with authorized Reclamation Project purposes, 
operations, safety and security; 
 
 
 
(ii) A higher public use is identified through a public process described at 43 C.F.R. § 
429.32(a)(1); or 
 
 
 
(iii) Termination is necessary for operational needs of the project.  
 
 
8.3 
The USA or Licensor may, at any time and at no cost or liability to the U.S.A. or Licensor, 
terminate this License if the U.S.A. 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 14 hereof within the timeframe specified in the terms of this License may constitute a 
presumption of abandonment of the requested use and cause termination of the License. 
 
 
 
 
8.4 
The USA or Licensor may, at any time and at no cost or liability to the United States or 
Licensor, terminate this License in the event of a natural disaster, a national emergency, a need arising 
from security requirements, or an immediate and overriding threat to public health and safety. 
 
 
8.5 
The USA or Licensor may, at any time and at no cost or liability to the United States or 
Licensor, terminate any use authorization if the beneficiary fails to comply with all applicable federal, 
state, and local laws, regulations, ordinances, or terms and conditions of any use authorization, or to 
obtain any required permits or authorizations. 
 
 
8.6 
If Licensee fails to (i) make any required payment by its due date or (ii) perform an 
obligation under this License after delivery of written notice (“Notice of Default”) identifying the failure 
to perform and demanding Licensee to cure such default within a designated period of time (“Correction

Period”), then Licensor may terminate this License after first delivering 30 days’ prior written notice to 
Licensee.  The standard Correction Period for Licensee to cure any default is within 30 days after delivery 
of the Notice of Default.  If Licensor, in its sole discretion, determines such default cannot reasonably 
be cured within 30 days, then it will identify in the Notice of Default the Correction Period during which 
Licensee must cure the default. 
 
8.7 
Upon the expiration, termination or revocation of this License, Licensee’s rights to use 
and occupy the Licensed Property shall cease.  If at that time all License fees and/or damage claims due 
the U.S.A. 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 U.S.A. or Licensor.  If Licensee 
fails to remove any such improvements within thirty (30) days of the expiration, termination or 
revocation of this License, or if any License fees and/or damage claims remain unpaid, then structures, 
equipment or other improvements shall, at the option of the U.S.A. or Licensor, be removed or become 
the property of the U.S.A. or Licensor.  The Licensee shall pay all expenses of the U.S.A. or Licensor, 
or their assigns, related to the removal of such improvements. 
 
9.  
Maintenance of Licensed Property & Interface with Licensor’s Use of Licensed  
 
 
Property 
 
 
9.1 
Licensor reserves to itself and the 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 the 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 would materially disrupt the improvements or 
Licensee’s use and enjoyment of the Licensed Property or the 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 and the U.S.A.  Licensor shall not be liable to Licensee for any damage to public 
or private property or to installations located upon the Licensed Property, unless solely due to negligent 
or willful acts or omissions of Licensor, its agents or employees. 
 
 
9.2 
Licensee, at its own expense, shall maintain all of the Licensed Property in reasonably 
good, sanitary and safe condition.  If Licensee defaults in the performance of this obligation, and 
Licensor issues a Notice of Default, Licensee shall cure such default to the reasonable satisfaction of 
Licensor within the Correction Period.  If Licensee fails to cure the default within the Correction Period, 
Licensor may take any action reasonably determined by Licensor to be necessary to cure such default, 
including without limitation making any repair or modification to or removing any of the improvements.  
Licensee shall reimburse Licensor for the reasonable costs incurred to cure the default and paid by 
Licensor within thirty (30) calendar days after Licensor presents Licensee with an invoice for such costs.  
Licensee shall release Licensor, Association and the U.S.A. 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 the improvements.     
 
9.3     In accordance with Section 9.2, Licensee, at its own expense, shall maintain all existing and future 
vegetation and landscaping within the Licensed Property to ensure reasonably safe and unrestricted

access by those lawfully present thereon and so as to afford Licensor a canal bank maintenance road no 
less than twenty (20) feet in width free of any such vegetation or landscaping at all times. 
 
9.4 
In addition to any other obligation to communicate with each other, Licensor and Licensee 
shall meet annually at the Licensed Property to recognize those Licensed Property management 
efforts that have been successful, identify those management responsibilities that need closer 
attention, and discuss opportunities to further improve the oversight and management of the Licensed 
Property.  This annual meeting is not intended to interfere with or replace frequent and constructive 
dialogue between Licensor and Licensee throughout the term of the License as need arises.   
The annual meeting shall be held on the 15th day of January (or the next business day of January 
should January 15th  fall on a weekend or holiday) of each licensed year.  Licensor will be responsible 
for scheduling the meeting and inviting the relevant representatives to attend.  Licensor shall 
coordinate the scheduling of the annual meeting and the list of attendees with Licensee’s Real Estate 
Services Administrator. 
 
10. 
Nonexclusive Rights 
 
 
This License is nonexclusive, and nothing herein shall be construed to prevent or restrict Licensor 
from granting other privileges to use the Licensed Property in a manner Licensor or the U.S.A. deems 
not inconsistent with Licensee’s use of the Licensed Property in accordance with this License. 
 
11. 
Existing Easements and Licenses 
 
 
This License is subject to all existing encumbrances of record, including easements and licenses. 
It shall be Licensee’s obligation and responsibility to ascertain the rights of all third parties in the 
Licensed Property.  Licensor consents only to the use of the Licensed Property for the purposes described 
herein, in its capacity as manager of the Licensed Property and on behalf of the U.S.A.  Nothing in this 
License shall be construed as Licensor’s representation, warranty, approval or consent regarding rights 
in the Licensed Property held by other parties.  Licensee shall indemnify and hold Licensor, the U.S.A. 
and the Association harmless from any liability arising out of any dispute or claim regarding actual or 
alleged interests in the Licensed Property, affecting Licensee’s interests created herein.  
 
12. 
Indemnification

To the extent not prohibited by law or expressly excepted herein, Licensee, its successors 
and assigns (“Indemnitors”), shall indemnify, release, and hold harmless Licensor and Association  
(“Indemnitees”) and the directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns thereof, for, from 
and against any damage, loss or liability caused in whole or in part by Licensee, regardless of whether 
caused in part by Indemnitees or any of them, and suffered by Indemnitees as a result of any claim, 
demand, lawsuit or action of any kind, whether such damage or loss is to person or property, arising out 
of, resulting from or caused by: (a) the acts or omissions of Licensee, its agents, contractors, officers, 
directors, or employees; (b) Licensee’s use or occupancy of the Licensed Property for the purposes 
contemplated by this License, including but not limited to claims by third parties who are invited or 
permitted onto the Licensed Property, either expressly or impliedly, by Licensee or by the nature of 
Licensee’s improvement or other use of the Licensed Property pursuant to this License; (c) Licensee’s 
failure to comply with or fulfill its obligations established by this 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 Indemnitors shall extend to and encompass all costs incurred by 
Indemnitors 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. The provisions of 
this Section shall survive termination of this License. 
 
 
12.2 
The Licensee agrees to indemnify the U.S.A. and hold the U.S.A. and all of its 
representatives harmless from all damages resulting from suits, actions, or claims of any character 
brought on account of any injury to any person or property arising out of any act, omission, neglect, or 
misconduct in the manner or method of performing any construction, care, operation, maintenance, 
supervision, examination, inspection, or other activities of the Licensee.

stipulate that the insurance afforded for Licensor, members of its governing bodies, its officers, agents 
and employees shall be primary insurance and that any insurance carried by Licensor, members of its 
governing bodies, its officers, agents or employees shall be excess and not contributory insurance.

coverages to waive all rights of subrogation against Licensor and members of its governing bodies, its 
officers, agents and employees for matters arising out of this License.

14.3 
Licensor may request Licensee to alter the scheduling of construction undertaken 
pursuant to Section 14.1, but only when and to the extent necessary to prevent any material interference 
with Licensor’s use of the Licensed Property, and if such improvements do interfere with Licensor’s use, 
Licensor may request Licensee to relocate Licensee’s materials, facilities and improvements as deemed 
necessary by Licensor. 
 
 
14.4 
If relocation of Licensee’s materials, facilities or improvements is necessitated by

Licensee shall bear the entire actual cost of relocating said materials, facilities and improvements. 
 
 
14.5 
Licensor shall not exercise its right to require relocation of Licensee’s facilities, 
materials and improvements in an unreasonable or arbitrary manner, and warrants to Licensee that as

STAT. § 42-17106. 
Municipality shall inform SRP prior to commencement of any construction if it is subject to Buy 
America requirements.  In such case:  
a. 
The Parties acknowledge that utility relocations in connection with Federal-aid highway program 
(FAHP) funded projects, as defined by the National Environmental Protection Act, are subject to 23 
U.S.C. § 313; 23 C.F.R. § 635.410; and, as applicable, Section 70914 of the Infrastructure Investment 
and Jobs Act, Pub, L. 117–58 (“Buy America requirements”). 
b.  SRP agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with applicable Buy America 
requirements. 
c. 
If SRP is unclear regarding its obligations under this provision, SRP may seek clarification from 
Municipality by giving Municipality written notice of inquiry as soon as reasonably practicable after 
discovery of the issue.  Such requests are limited to only (i) the items SRP cannot find a source to make 
a qualifying Buy America purchase, (ii) items that SRP can find a source to make a qualifying Buy 
America purchase, but the lead time for such purchase may unreasonably impact the Project Schedule, 
and (iii) SRP is unable in good faith to determine whether the Buy America requirements apply to a 
particular item. Municipality will respond to the inquiry in writing within 5 working days. Municipality’s 
response will include Municipality’s recommendation to SRP on how to proceed, but Municipality will 
not direct SRP’s activities. SRP shall not be responsible for delays in performance to the extent caused

materials.  Municipality will acknowledge receipt of this statement but will not make judgment as to the 
validity of the statement. 
e. 
Municipality agrees, if it is determined that materials used are not in compliance with Buy 
America requirements, the maximum SRP liability will be no more than 150 percent of the price 
attributable to the materials that are not in compliance with Buy America requirements; provided, 
however, that if SRP has sought clarification of the material requirement under the provisions of 
paragraph (b) above, and has followed Municipality’s written recommendations, SRP shall have no 
liability.

f. Municipality understands that SRP’s compliance with the Buy America Act may result in longer lead 
times for ordering materials, vendor-prescribed minimum purchase quantities, and higher material costs.  
SRP will pass on to Municipality any additional costs it incurs as a result of SRP’s compliance with the 
Buy America Act, and SRP will not be liable for schedule delays caused by longer lead times.  If there 
is a minimum purchase quantity requirement, SRP shall deliver and transfer title to excess materials to 
Municipality at agreed locations within the Phoenix metropolitan area at no additional cost to 
Municipality. 
g. SRP shall not be responsible for delays caused by changes in the Project Design made by or at the 
direction of Municipality.
