KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that the undersigned, their heirs, successors, lessees and

hereby grant and convey to DUKE ENERGY FLORIDA, LLC, d/b/a DUKE ENERGY, a Florida Limited
Liability Company, Post Office Box 14042, St. Petersburg, Florida 33733, and to its successors and assigns,
("GRANTEE"), an easement to install, operate and maintain in perpetuity, such facilities as may be necessary or
desirable for providing electric energy and, said facilities being located in the following described "Easement Area"
within GRANTOR'S premises in Pinellas County, to wit:
A 10.00 foot wide Easement Area lying 5.00 feet on each side of GRANTEE's facilities, as built and
installed at a mutually agreeable location over, under, upon, across, through and within the following
described property to accommodate present and future development:
See legal description on the accompanying Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated
herein by this reference.
The rights herein granted to GRANTEE by GRANTOR specifically include: (a) the right for GRANTEE
to patrol, inspect, alter, improve, repair, rebuild, relocate, and remove said facilities; further GRANTEE hereby
agrees to restore the Easement Area to as near as practicable the condition which existed prior to such construction,
repairs, alteration, replacement, relocation or removal as a result of GRANTEE's safe and efficient installation,
operation or maintenance of said facilities; (b) the reasonable right for GRANTEE to increase or decrease the
voltage and to change the quantity and type of facilities; (c) the reasonable right for GRANTEE to clear the
Easement Area of trees, limbs, undergrowth and other physical objects which, in the opinion of GRANTEE,

reasonable right for GRANTEE to request that GRANTOR trim or remove any trees or vegetation adjacent to, but

and efficient installation, operation or maintenance of said facilities; (e) the reasonable right for GRANTEE to enter
upon land of the GRANTOR adjacent to said Easement Area for the purpose of exercising the rights herein granted;
and (f) all other rights and privileges reasonably necessary or convenient for GRANTEE's safe and efficient

provision of electric energy and service and GRANTOR reserves the right to grant rights to others affecting said
easement area provided that such rights do not create an unsafe condition or unreasonably conflict with the rights
granted to GRANTEE herein.
GRANTOR hereby covenants and agrees that no buildings, structures or obstacles (except fences) shall be
located, constructed, excavated or created within the Easement Area. If the fences are installed, they shall be placed
so as to allow ready access to GRANTEE's facilities and provide a working space of not less than ten (10) feet on
the opening side, six (6) feet on the back for working space and three (3) feet on all other sides of any pad mounted
transformer. If GRANTOR's future orderly development of the premises is in physical conflict with GRANTEE's
facilities, GRANTEE shall, within 60 days after receipt of written request from GRANTOR, relocate said facilities
to another mutually agreed upon Easement Area in GRANTOR's premises, provided that (a) GRANTOR shall
reimburse GRANTEE the full actual cost of the relocation, and (b) GRANTOR shall execute and deliver to
GRANTEE, at no cost, an acceptable and recordable easement to cover the relocated facilities. Upon the
completion of the relocation, the easement herein shall be considered cancelled as to the portion vacated by such
relocation. If this easement is being granted to provide electric service to GRANTOR, then this legal description
was provided by GRANTOR. In the event facilities are located outside of this legal description, GRANTOR shall
pay for any relocation costs necessary or shall amend this legal description to cover the actual facilities. Should this
easement be granted to provide electric service to a third party, GRANTEE shall provide the legal description and
GRANTOR shall not have any liability related to errors in the legal description.
GRANTOR covenants not to interfere with GRANTEE's facilities within the Easement Area in
GRANTOR's premises, and GRANTOR further covenants to indemnify to the extent of Florida Statute 768.28
and hold GRANTEE harmless from damages and injuries, whether to persons or property, arising directly from the
negligent act related to GRANTEE's facilities by GRANTOR or by GRANTOR' s agents or employees.
Nothing contained herein, however, shall be construed to waive or modify the provisions of Florida Statute
768.28 or the doctrine of sovereign immunity as to any party hereto. In addition, nothing contained herein shall be
construed as consent by the GRANTOR to be sued by third parties in any manner arising from this grant of easement, or
as a waiver of sovereign immunity.
GRANTEE agrees to indemnify and hold GRANTOR harmless for, from and against any and all losses,
claims or damages incurred by GRANTOR arising directly from GRANTEE's negligence or failure to exercise
reasonable care in the construction, reconstruction, operation, use or maintenance of GRANTEE's facilities located on
the above described easement.
GRANTOR hereby warrants and covenants (a) that GRANTOR is the owner of the fee simple title to the
premises in which the above described Easement Area is located, (b) that GRANTOR has full right and lawful
authority to grant and convey this easement to GRANTEE, and (c) that GRANTEE shall have quiet and peaceful
possession, use and enjoyment of this easement.
All covenants, terms, provisions and conditions herein contained shall inure and extend to and be obligatory
upon the heirs, successors, lessees and assigns of the respective parties hereto.
