shall coordinate in good faith with such efforts. Likewise, if Indian River and/or Brightline is successful in obtaining grant money for any improvement the cost of which is to be shared on an equal basis, their payment obligations shall be reduced on an equal basis. For example, if Indian River were to obtain a grant in the amount of $100,000 for the installation of improvements the cost of which is to be shared on an equal basis, Indian River's and Brightline's respective payment obligations for those improvements would be reduced by $50,000 each. (d) Of the Indian River Crossings to be modified, 21 involve roadways within Indian River's permitting jurisdiction. These 21 crossings are listed in Exhibit B. For those 21 crossings and those crossings located in the City of Sebastian and at Hawk's Nest Road, Indian River has requested that Brightline install certain pavement markings, signage and other improvements outside the FECR ROW as specified in Exhibit D -I at Brightline's expense, and Brightline agrees to do so. Indian River agrees to maintain the pavement markings, signage and other improvements outside the FECR ROW at its own expense. (e) The parties acknowledge and agree that the additional improvements being made pursuant to this paragraph 3 are being made as an accommodation in furtherance of settlement and shall not be deemed an admission that the improvements are necessary or advisable at any particular location. Nor shall they be deemed precedent that similar improvements are necessary or advisable at any other location. (f) Prior to any construction within Indian River's right-of-way, Brightline shall apply for and obtain an Indian River right-of-way permit. Indian River agrees that Brightline may use a single application for all such construction, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit E-2. Such single application shall include the required information for each of the 21 roadway crossings within Indian River's permitting jurisdiction. Indian River further agrees that, upon submission of the completed application, the right-of-way permit will be issued. If Indian River fails to issue the right-of-way permit as required herein, Brightline shall have no obligation under this Agreement to install any improvement, pavement marking, or signage outside the FECR ROW. Indian River agrees to waive the security requirement for such permit. Such waiver is predicated on Brightline's agreement to return Indian River's right-of-way in at least the same condition as before the commencement of such installation, and Brightline's failure to do so shall constitute a breach of this Agreement. (g) Indian River agrees to approve Brightline's maintenance of traffic plans for the foregoing crossing work, provided such plans are in compliance with federal, state, and local maintenance of traffic requirements. (h) Indian River shall execute amendments to the Existing Indian River Crossing Agreements, in the form attached as Exhibit F. The amendments shall not alter Indian River's rights or obligations as to FECR, except that for a period of 14 years from the date Brightline begins passenger revenue operations from West Palm Beach to Orlando, Indian River and Brightline shall share responsibility for paying Indian River's road surface, signal, and other crossing maintenance and rehabilitation costs, as follows: Indian River shall pay up to $235,500 of the total amount invoiced by FECR for road surface, signal, and other crossing maintenance and rehabilitation costs each calendar year, and Brightline shall pay the balance of such costs; provided, however, that if Indian River does not pay its share of such road surface, signal, and other crossing maintenance and rehabilitation costs as contemplated herein, Brightline shall have no
