BK: 2182 PG: 118 14. Permission of Grantee. Where Grantor is required to obtain Grantee's permission for a proposed action hereunder, said permission shall be requested in writing. Grantor's request shall include building plans identifying the use, footprint, and total square footage of any proposed structures, and related survey information, if available. Grantee reserves the right to request from Grantor, in writing, any additional information reasonably required to assist in Grantee's evaluation of the request. Grantee shall grant permission unless it determines that such proposed action would violate this Conservation Easement. Grantee shall respond in writing within forty-five (45) days of receipt of the Grantor's written request. Permission by the Grantee does not replace other governmental approvals, including, but not limited to, Indian River County approvals. 15. Ongoing Responsibilities of Grantor and Grantee. Other than as specified herein, this Conservation Easement is not intended to impose any legal or other responsibility on Grantee, or in any way to affect any obligations of Grantor as owner of the Property, including, but not limited to, the following: a. Taxes. Grantor shall be solely responsible for payment of all taxes and assessments levied against the Property. If the Grantor becomes delinquent in payment of taxes the Grantee, at its option, shall have the right to take such actions as may be necessary to protect the Grantee's interest in the Property and to assure the continued enforceability of this instrument and to recover all of its costs including reasonable attorney's fees. If, as a result of such actions, Grantee ever pays any taxes or assessments on Grantor's interest in the Property, Grantor will promptly reimburse Grantee for the same. b. Upkeep and Maintenance. Grantor shall be solely responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the Property, to the extent required by law and this Conservation Easement. Grantee shall have no obligation whatsoever for the upkeep or maintenance of the Property. C. Liability and Indemnification. Grantor agrees to indemnify and hold Grantee harmless from any and all costs, claims or liability, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys fees arising from any personal injury, accidents, negligence or damage relating to the Property, or any claim thereof, unless solely due to the negligence of Grantee or its agents, in which case liability shall be apportioned accordingly. Pursuant to Florida Statutes section 704.06(10)(2006), the ownership or attempted enforcement of rights held by Grantee does not subject the Grantee to any liability for any damage or injury that may be suffered by any person on the property or as a result of the condition of the Property encumbered by a Conservation Easement. Further, nothing in this Conservation Easement shall be deemed or construed as a waiver of the sovereign immunity of Indian River County as Grantee. 10
