<br /> road ditches,drainage ditches,and utilities,at any angle of not less than forty-five(45)degrees to Grantee's
<br /> Pipeline over and across the Permanent Easement, provided that all of Grantee's required and applicable
<br /> spacing and crossing guidelines, including,without limitation,depth separation limits and other protective

<br /> have the right to remove any improvement, facility or structure that interferes with the purposes for which
<br /> this Agreement is granted and which is installed by Grantor subsequent to the date that Grantee acquires
<br /> possession of the Easements,without liability to Grantor for damages.
<br /> 8. Grantee,while the Temporary Easement is in effect,has the right,without paying any damages to
<br /> Grantor, to mow and/or trim or cut down or eliminate any trees or shrubbery from the Easements and,

<br /> judgment, possible interference with the operation and maintenance of the Pipeline and/or to remove
<br /> possible hazard thereto, and the right to remove or prevent the construction of, any and all buildings,
<br /> structures, reservoirs or other obstructions on the Permanent Easement which, in the sole judgment of

<br /> of oil, gas, and other minerals on the Easements, but it will be permitted to extract the oil, gas, and other
<br /> minerals from and under the Easements by directional drilling and other means,provided the drill bit enters
<br /> the Easements at a subsurface depth of twenty feet (20') or deeper and so long as such activities do not
<br /> damage, destroy, injure, and/or interfere with Grantee's use of the Easements for the purposes for which
<br /> the Easements are being sought by Grantee.
<br /> 10. Grantee agrees to comply in all respects,at its sole cost,with all applicable federal, state and local
<br /> laws, rules, and regulations which are applicable to Grantee's activities hereunder, including without

<br /> removed from Grantor's lands upon completion of installation and construction of the Pipeline,associated
<br /> equipment and appurtenances thereto.

<br /> be no hunting or fishing on the Easements or any of Grantor's lands by Grantee, its officers, agents,
<br /> employees, contractors, invitees, guests or representatives at any time. No firearms or fishing equipment
<br /> shall be taken on the Easements by Grantee, its officers, agents, employees,contractors,invitees,guests or
<br /> representatives at any time.
<br /> 13. Grantee shall cause no above-ground appurtenances to be constructed on the Permanent Easement,
