A.On June 25, 1999, the Superior Court entered a judgment in condemnation in Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Airport Authority v. Lockheed Corporation, et al., Los Angeles County Superior Court Case No. BC 155 222 (the “Condemnation Action”), an eminent domain proceeding filed by the Authority to condemn the real property described in Exhibit “A-1” (the "B-6 Property") for public use.

B.On August __, 1999, the Authority and the City executed an Escrow Agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) pursuant to which the Authority and the City have agreed to the imposition of easements and restrictions on the use of the B-6 Property as set forth in this Adjacent Property Easement and the Grant of Easements, Declaration of Use Restrictions and Agreement for Trust Property executed by the Authority, the City and Security Trust Company, a California corporation, as trustee (the “Trustee”), of even date herewith (the “Trust Property Easement”).

C.The Court has entered a Final Order of Condemnation in the Condemnation Action (the “Final Order”).

D.Pursuant to the Final Order, all of the right, title and interest in that portion of the B-6 Property described in Exhibit “A-2” (the “Adjacent Property”) will be conveyed to the Authority. The Final Order provides that the Authority shall cause the Trustee to record a certified copy of the Final Order, this Adjacent Property Easement, and the Trust Property Easement, in that order and without the intervention of any other document, in the Official Records of Los Angeles County.

E.The City is the owner of the real property legally described in Exhibit “A-3", situated adjacent to or in the immediate vicinity of the B-6 Property (the “City Property”).

F.Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Authority and the City desire to enter into and thereafter record, this Adjacent Property Easement, for the purpose of establishing the use restrictions and easements provided for in the Escrow Agreement as use restrictions and easements in favor of the City and the City Property, and as covenants running with the Adjacent Property, or any portion thereof, and the City Property, concurrently with the entry and recordation of the Final Order and the vesting of title to the Adjacent Property in the Authority subject to the terms of this Adjacent Property Easement.

G.The parties intend that the easements and covenants provided for herein shall run in favor of and benefit the City, both in its capacity as a governmental body with regulatory authority over the Adjacent Property pursuant to its land use ordinances and regulations and the rights provided for under Public Utilities Code Section 21661.6 (“PUC Section 21661.6”) and in its proprietary capacity as the owner of the City Property and other real property within its boundaries.

H.References herein to “the Authority” and “the City” shall include the grantees, successors and assigns of the Authority and the City, as applicable.

THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

1. Grant of Easements. For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Authority grants to the City, as easements appurtenant to and for the benefit of the City Property, and in gross, for the benefit of the City in its governmental and proprietary capacities, the following easements over, upon, in and to the Adjacent Property (the “Adjacent Property Easements”): (a) no structure shall be constructed, built, erected or placed on the Adjacent Property within the Building Restriction Line (“BRL”), as shown on the Authority’s Airport Layout Plan (“ALP”), approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) on June 10, 1998, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit “B”, (b) no portion of the Adjacent Property shall be used for any purpose other than the uses permitted pursuant to the July 9, 1997 Stipulated Order of the Los Angeles County Superior Court in City of Burbank v.

The Adjacent Property Easements and Adjacent Property Use Restrictions shall take effect, and the Adjacent Property shall be held, conveyed, hypothecated, encumbered, leased, rented, used, occupied and improved subject to the terms of this Adjacent Property Easement, concurrently with the recordation of the Final Order, or any other final order of condemnation of the Adjacent Property, or any portion thereof, approved by the Authority and the City, in the Condemnation Action, and the vesting of any or all right, title and interest to the Adjacent Property in the Authority.
