NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agree- ments herein contained, Elgin agrees to furnish liad sell, and Bartlett agrees to receive, and pay for, water upon the terms and conditions, and for the consideration as hereinafter set forth: 1. Water to be Supplied A. Subject to the provisions and limitations stated herein, Elgin agrees to tender and sell to Bartlett, at formal operating pressure and at metering points hereinafter specified, water in the volume required or desired by Bartlett. B. Water to be delivered at the point of metering by Elgin and received by Bartlett hereunder shall be of the same quality as that provided to customers within the corporate limits of the City of Elgin from the Elgin system. 2. Limitation on Water Use A. In the event that it becomes necessary for Elgin to limit its delivery of water to its customers, Bartlet6hall be entitled to receive during such a period of scarcity its prorata share of water available as determined by the proration which the volume of water used by Bartlett during the last preceding six (6) month period (or, if Bartlett has been using water for less than six (6) months, during whatever time period Bartlett has used Elgin water) bears to the volume of water used bb the other customers of Elgin for the same period. As used in this agreement, customers shall include all residential, commercial, industrial and municipal purchases of water from Elgin regardless of whether they are located within or outside of Elgin's corporate boundary. B. Except for emergency situations; Bartlett shall use the water purchased from Elgin pursuant to this agreement to meet the needs of the residential, commercial or industrial establishments within the corporate limits of Bartlett only. 3. Points of Connection and Metering A. There shall be three (3) points', of connection from the water supply of Elgin to Bartlett which shall be located as shown on Exhibit A, (which is attached hereto and made a part hereof) unless otherwise provided in this agreement or in any subsequent agreement between ''the parties. Connections shall be to the Elgin watermains as designated below: Points of Connection Elgin Watermain and Timing of Connection Point 1 Existing twelve W") watermain north of Bluff City Boulevard, so4th of U.S. 20 to be connected not later than Jani4ary 1, 1986. Point 2 Existing twelve inch (12") watermain on West Bartlett Road apprcpximately 2500 feet east of Gifford Road to be ',connected not later than January 1, 1989. Point 3 Existing twenty-foir inch (24") watermain on Summit Street approximately 250 feet east of Hunter Drive to be 1,connected not later than January 1, 1994. B. The anticipated connection dates are estimates only; however, the sequence of connection shall be as specified ''above. Provided further, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Bartlett may, at its option, eliminate points of connections 1 and/or 2 (and thus also eliminate metering Points 1 and/or 2) and connect to Point 3 at any time aftr execution of this agreement. When the connection is made at Point 3 the valve ,at metering Points 1 and 2 shall be closed and these connections, if established, shall serve as emergency connections only and shall not be used for normal. service. C. There shall be three points of 'metering which will measure the rate and quantity of water transferred to the Bartlett water system. These points of metering shall be located as shown on Ixhibit A, unless modified pursuant to this agreewnt or in any subsequent agreement between the parties. 4. Construction of Watermains A. Bartlett agrees to cause at it$ sole expense all work and improvements necessary to construct and install necessary watermains from Bartlett to and including a connection at the points of connection specified above. The construction of the watermain shall include the installation of such devices and appurtenances as are necessary and usual and customary for a complete system. The size and path of the watermains to be constructed between the points of metering and the points oftonnection shall be in sub- stantial conformance with Exhibit A. -2- B. Elgin agrees that to the extent that it may do so lawfully, it will grant easements to Bartlett over property Elgin may own, and otherwise cooperate with Bartlett in acquiring necessary easements within the corporate limits of Elgin and in the unincorporated areas between Bartlett and Elgin, to provide access to the points of connection and metering. Bartlett shall pay for all costs incurred in acquiring said easements, including but not limited to compensa- tion to third parties, title charges, filing fess, legal fees and expenses. C. The exact location of any connection at the points of con- nections and the method of effecting such connection to the Bartlett system shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Elgin and the work of effecting any such connection shall not be started until such approval has been granted in writing by the Water Operations Director of the City of Elgin. D. The watermains between connection Point 1 and metering Point 1 shall include a twelve inch (12") watermain from connection Point 1 to Point A as shown on Exhibit A; a twelve inch (12") watermain from Point B to Point A as shown on Exhibit A; and a sixteen inch (16") watermain from Point A to the point of metering #1 as shown on xhibit A. This will result in the looping of the Elgin system between the existing twelve inch (12") watermain located near Bluff City Boulevard (connection Point 1) and the twelve inch (12") watermain located east of Lovell Road and north of U.S. 20 as shown on Exhibit A. Such looping is necessary to provide sufficient water pressure at point of metering #1 to meet the needs of Bartlett pursuant to this agreement. E. Elgin may request that Bartlett oversize any of the water- mains shown on Exhibit A to a size larger than that shown on said exhibit. Bartlett shall cause said oversizing to be inclijded in the plans and construc- tion of the watermain affected. Elgin shall pay the costs and expenses of said oversizing and in no event shall Bartlett' costs or expenses be increased due to said oversizing. The parties agree that ,they shall endeavor to cooperate in the planning and construction of said oversied watermain. F. Notwithstanding the foregoing Elgin may decide to extend the existing twelve inch (12") watermain on West Bartlett Road (connection Point 2) or the existing twenty-four inch (24") I,watermain on Summit Street (connection Point 3) to meet Elgin's need prior 1,to Bartlett's connection as provided in paragraph 3A. In such case, Elgin Shall cause said watermain to be oversized to meet the needs of Bartlett as provided in this agreement. -3- Bartlett shall pay the costs and expenses of said oversizing. The parties agree that they shall endeavor to cooperate in the planning and construction of any extension. G. In the event Elgin requests the oversizing of the proposed sixteen inch (16") watermain located on Summit Street (connection Point 3) pursuant to paragraph 4E or in the event Elgin extends said watermain pursuant to paragraph 4F, then the point of metering #3 aS shown on Exhibit A shall be relocated as follows: i) If the proposed watermain is oversized pursuant to paragraph 4E the metering Point 3 shall be located at the point on said watermain where such oversizing terminates. ii) If the proposed watermain is extended pursuant to paragraph 4F, the metering Point 3 shall be ', located at the point on said watermain where such extension terminates. iii) In the event the proposed iatermain is extended pursuant to paragraph 4F and Elgin subsequently requests oversizing pursuant to paragraph 4E then the point of metering #3 $hall be as provided in sub- paragraph (i) above. 5. Ownership and Maintenance of Waternain A. The watermains constructed by Bartlett pursuant to this agreement between the points of metering and the! points of connection and the "looping" watermains as provided in paragraph 4D shall be owned and maintained by Elgin. Upon completion, in conformance with the terms of this agreement, Bartlett agrees to dedicate said watermains and necessary easements to Elgin and Elgin agrees to accept and maintain same throughout the term of this agreement. B. Upon dedication and acceptance, as provided above, Elgin shall take all steps necessary as far as it may lawfully do so to pass a recapture ordinance which ordinance shall requirje the owners of property adjoining said improvement to bear a proportionate share of the cost of an eight inch (8") watermain in the event that said owners desire to connect to and use the watermains described above. It is expressly understood that, although watermains of various sizes will be involved (e.g. , 16 inch and 12 inch) the recapture ordinance shall assess hook on fees for the adjoining property owner as if an eight inch (8") watermain was constructed and all costs to such owners shall be determined accordingly. Provided, however, -4- nothing in this section shall affect or limit the obligation of Elgin to pay for oversizing of mains in excess of that shown an Exhibit A pursuant to paragraph 4E. Provided further, that Bartlett shall not be entitled to reimbursement for that portion of any watermain extended by Elgin pursuant to paragraph 4F. The total costs to be included in the recapture ordinances as well as the actual properties to be included and the proportionate cost to be assessed to each parcel shall be mutually agreed to by the parties prior to the passage of the recapture ordinances. Although Elgin agrees to use its best efforts to collect the costs assessed against adjoining property owners, it shall not be liable to Bartlett for its failure to collect such sums. C. All metering pits, valves and measuring equipment as well as the watermains extending east of the point of metering to Bartlett shall be owned and maintained by Bartlett except as proviled in paragraph 6. 6. Measuring Equipment A. Bartlett shall furnish, install and replace as may be necessary, at its own expense, at each point of metering, the necessary meter pits, valves, meters and rate of flow recorders of a standard type reasonably approved by Elgin, capable of reading and recording the constant rate of flow and daily quantity and with the capacity of accepting teleOetering equipment to permit remote reading at a point to be designated by Bartlett for measuring the rate and quantity of water delivered under this contract. B. Each point of metering shall be provided with a check valve to be mounted close to the water measuring device in such a manner as to prevent the flow of water from Bartlett to Elginl. In addition, valves on each side of the meter shall be provided as well as a bypass around the meter. C. For the purpose of this contract, the original record or readings of the meter or meters shall be the journal or other records of the Water Department of the City of Elgin. Upon regluest by Bartlett, Elgin shall furnish Bartlett with a copy of such records or permit Bartlett to have access thereto during the reasonable business hours. D. Upon receipt of a written request by either Bartlett or Elgin, on a date as near the end of a calendar Month as practical, Elgin shall calibrate all meters used for measuring the quantity of water transferred by Elgin to Bartlett at the point, or points, of metering. Such calibration shall be done in the presence of a representative of Bartlett and the parties -5- shall jointly observe any adjustments which are made to the meter or meters in case any adjustments shall be necessary. Maintenance and testing shall be performed by Elgin and the reasonable cost thereof shall be paid for by Bartlett. E. The unit of measurement for determining compensation for water delivered hereunder shall be cubic feet of water and all measuring devices shall be so calibrated. F. In the event any meter malfunctions or becomes inoperable so that it fails to properly register the quantity of water consumed, the same shall be determined and charges made pursuant to the Elgin Municipal Code, Section 14.04.250 or its successor. G. All equipment installed pursuant to this section shall remain the property of Bartlett. 7. Price and Terms A. The price to be paid for the flirnishing of water under the terms of this contract by Bartlett to Elgin shall be calculated by reference to the Elgin residential user rate for water in effect from time to time, as hereinafter specified. Bartlett shall pay Elgin 1.25 times the Elgin resi- dential water rate in effect at the time for each 100 cubic feet of water delivered through the meters at each point of delivery to Bartlett. B. In addition Bartlett shall pay Elgin an annual water avail- ability charge equal to 1.25 times the Elgin water availability charge as determined pursuant to Elgin Municipal Code, Section 14.04.180 or its successor, for each meter at each point of delivery based On the size of said meter. C. Elgin shall bill Bartlett for all water furnished under this agreement monthly and payments shall be due and payable by Bartlett to Elgin within twenty-three days from the date ofHbilling. D. Liability for making payments as above set forth shall commence on the date of the first tender of delivery and acceptance of water by Bartlett under this agreement. 8. Minimum Purchase Levels A.

In the event the amount of water actually purchased by Bartlett pursuant to this agreement fails to equal or exceed the above specified minimum in any given year, Bartlett shall nevertheless remain liable to pay for said minimum levels as though said levels were reached and such quantity of water delivered and received. In the event the minimum purchase levels are not reached in any year, Bartlett shall pay the difference in cost for that year between the quantity of water actually purchased and the applicable minimum quantity of water shown above. C. Liability for making payment fbr the minimum purchase levels set forth above shall commence in 1986 and shall continue during each year of this agreement. It is expressly understood that, water purchases in excess of the minimum requirement shall not be credited to' or used to offset the minimum purchase levels in any other year. D. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Bartlett is ready, willing and able to accept, receive and purchase sufficient quantities of water equal to or in excess of the minimum amounts required by the agreement, but Elgin is unable to tender and sell water to Bartlett in sufficient quantity during any calendar year to equal to the above described minimum levels, then Bartlett shall be relieved of the obligation of purchasing and paying for said minimums. However Bartlett shall in said event be required to pay for such quantities of water actually delivered by Elgin. Provided, however, Bartlett shall not be considered "ready, willing and able" as provided above unless it has operational points of connections, iieters and watermains in accordance with the terms of this agreement with sufficient capacity to receive and -7- transfer to the Bartlett water system an amount of water equal to or greater than the above specified minimums for any given year. 9. Quantity of Water--Limitation A. Each point of metering individually and in the aggregate shall have a maximum permitted flow (hereafter MPF) as hereinafter provided. The purpose of the MPF is to protect the Elgin water supply system. No transfer of water from the Elgin water system at the point of metering shall be permitted in excess of the MPF even if this results in Elgin being unable to supply water to Bartlett equal to the minimum purchase limits contained in paragraph 8. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the limitations contained in paragraph 8(D) , Bartlett shall remain liable for the minimum purchase requirements established in paragraph 8, 'it being understood that it is the responsibility of Bartlett to construct and maintain sufficient points of connection and metering to permit the transfer from the Elgin water system of the required minimum or other amounts of water in excess of said minimum as desired by Bartlett. Maximum Permitted Flow Point of Metering MPF/Day MPF/Hour Point 1 1.01 MGD 750 GPM Point 2 .72 MGD 550 GPM Point 3 3.00 MGD 2200 GPM Any Combination of Points 1, 2 and 3 3.00 MGD 2200 GP'1 B. Should Bartlett desire to increase the maximum volume or rate of delivery as heretofore set forth herein in this paragraph, a request in writing stating the desired volume or rate of increased delivery shall be made to Elgin and shall then become a matter of negotiation between Elgin and Bartlett, but Elgin shall be under no obligation to agree to an increase in the maximum volume and rate of delivery herethfore specified herein. 10. Surcharge Imposed A. In addition to all other charges, Bartlett shall pay a surcharge, as established herein, in the event that their use exceeds the following described limits at any single or combination of metering points for more than 30 consecutive minutes during a day, defined as the period from 9:00 a.m. of one calendar day until 9:00 a.ln. of the following calendar day, on three or more days during any calendar year of this agreement (January 1 through December 31.) -8- Surcharge Imposed If U$e Exceeds the Following for Point of Metering 30 Minutes on 3 or More Days Hereby Defined as Excessive Use Point 1 750 GPM Point 2 550 GPM Point 3 2200 GPM Any Combination of Points 1, 2 and 3 2200 GPM B. The surcharge shall be a sum equal to fifty percent (50%) of all charges required to be paid by Bartlett pursuant to paragraphs 7 or 8 of this agreement, whichever is applicable, during the calendar year immediately following the year in which the excessive use as described above occurred. C. In the event there is a period of excessive use during the last year of this agreement, and this agreement is not renewed or extended or a successor agreement entered into providing for the payment of any unpaid surcharge which may properly be assessed due to 4 period of excessive use during the last year of this agreement, then Bartlett shall become liable for and shall pay to Elgin an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of all charges required to be paid by Bartlett, pursuant to paragraph 7 of this agreement, during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the termination or expiration of this agreement. Such payments may be made in equal monthly installments provided that all surcharges for which Bartlett may become liable for under this agreement shall be due and payable no later than twelve (12) months after the expiration or termination of this agreement. D. The surcharge will not be applicable where the rate limita- tions are exceeded due to main breaks, or an act of God, provided Elgin Water Department is notified within 72 hours of each occurrence. 11. Continuity of Service--Conditions A.
