further warrants that Grantee shall have the use of and enjoy all the benefits derived
from and arising out of this Conservative Easement, and that Grantor will warrant and

interest in all or a portion of the Property. The Grantor agrees to provide written
notice of such transfer at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of the transfer. The

with federal, state or local laws, regulations and permits that maybe apply to the
exercise of the Reserved Rights.
F. Extinguishment. In the event that changed conditions render impossible the continued
use of the Property for the conservation purposes, this Conservation Easement may
only be extinguished, in whole or in part, by judicial proceedings.

eminent domain so as to substantially abrogate the Restrictions imposed by this

damages due to the taking.

immediately vested in Grantee. In the event that all or a portion of this Property is
sold, exchanged, or involuntarily converted following an extinguishment or the
exercise of eminent domain, Grantee shall be entitled to the fair market value of this
Conservation Easement. The parties stipulate that the fair market value of this
Conservation Easement shall be determined by multiplying the fair market value of
the Property unencumbered by this Conservation Easement (minus any increase in
value after the date of this grant attributable to improvements) by the ratio of the
value of this easement at the time of this grant to the value of the Property (without
deduction for the value of this Conservation Easement) at the time of this grant. The
values at the time of this grant shall be the values used, or which would have been
used, to calculate a deduction for federal income tax purposes, pursuant to Section
170(h) of the Internal Revenue Code (whether eligible to ineligible for such a
deduction). Grantee shall use its share of the proceeds in a manner consistent with the
purposes of this Conservation Easement.
