WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, the DEVELOPER desires water and sewer service to be rendered to property owned by the City of Miami and leased by the DEVELOPER, and WHEREAS, the Miami -Dade Water and Sewer Department, hereinafter designated as the "DEPARTMENT", operates the water and sewer systems owned by the COUNTY. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants entered into between the parties hereto to be made and performed and in consideration of the benefits to accrue to each of the respective parties, it is covenanted and agreed to as follows: 1. DEVELOPER'S PROPERTY. The DEVELOPER leases a certain tract of land in Miami -Dade County, Florida, from the City of Miami, under a Sublease Agreement, subtitled (Watson Island Heliport Project) dated October 9, 2013, (assigned to the City of Miami after dissolution of the Miami Sports and Exhibition Authority) , which is legally described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part hereof, hereinafter sometimes described as the "DEVELOPER'S property". The DEVELOPER has requested that the DEPARTMENT render water and sewer service to the DEVELOPER'S property and the COUNTY agrees to do so subject to the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein. 2. WAIVER. No delay or failure to exercise a right under this Agreement or any other Agreement shall impair or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof. No waiver or indulgence of any breach of this Agreement or series of breaches shall be deemed or construed as a waiver of any other breach of same or as voiding or altering any other obligation of the parties under this Agreement or any other Agreement. No order or directive given by the COUNTY or its agents shall be considered as waiving any portion of this Agreement unless done in writing by a person having actual authority to grant such waiver. 3. DEVELOPER ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The DEVELOPER hereby acknowledges and agrees that any right to connect the DEVELOPER'S property to the COUNTY'S sewage system is subject to the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in court orders, judgments, consent orders, consent decrees and the like entered into between the COUNTY and the United States, the State of Florida and/or any other governmental entity, including but not limited to, the Consent Decree entered on April 9, 2014, in the United States of America, State of Florida and State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection v. Miami -Dade County, Case No. 1:12-cv-24400-FAM, as well as all other current, subsequent or future enforcement and regulatory actions and proceedings. Page 2 of 15 WATSON ISLAND AIR TRANSPORTATION FACILITY, ID# 22183 4. PROVISION OF SERVICE AND CONNECTION CHARGES. The COUNTY will provide an adequate domestic water supply for the DEVELOPER'S property and will receive and dispose of sanitary sewage from the DEVELOPER'S property. The DEVELOPER shall pay water and sewer connection charges for all those units to be constructed on the DEVELOPER'S property subject to the limitations specified herein. The DEVELOPER acknowledges that, to the extent that water or sewer service will ultimately be rendered to the DEVELOPER'S property by a volume customer, the DEVELOPER is a new retail user provided water or sewer service from a volume customer, and acknowledges that it is responsible for payment of connection charges; however, in the event that water or sewer service is provided directly by the COUNTY, the DEVELOPER acknowledges that it is a new retail customer of the COUNTY and accordingly also liable for payment of connection charges. The DEVELOPER may be considered both a new retail customer and a new retail user provided service by a volume customer in the event that the COUNTY provides water service to the DEVELOPER'S property and a volume customer provides sewer service, or vice -versa. The connection charges are based on the average daily gallons for the various building units and/or use as shown on Exhibit "B" attached hereto and made a part hereof, and as revised by the COUNTY from time to time, multiplied by the applicable rates established by the COUNTY. The DEVELOPER intends to construct and connect to the COUNTY'S water and sewer systems four thousand three hundred twenty (4,320) square feet of temporary office trailers, representing an average daily gallonage of two hundred sixteen (216) gallons, replacing vacant land, resulting in combined water and sewer connection charges in the amount of one thousand five hundred nine dollars and eighty-four cents ($1,509.84). However, water and sewer connection charges shall be calculated at the rates in effect at the time of actual connection to the COUNTY'S water and sewer systems. The DEPARTMENT'S current connection charge rates are one dollar and thirty-nine cents ($1.39) and five dollars and sixty cents ($5.60) per gallon per day for water and sewer, respectively. The water and sewer connection charge rates are subject to revision by the Board of County Commissioners at any time. The DEVELOPER shall pay fees and/or charges specified herein at the time of issuance of Verifications Form(s). The DEPARTMENT shall not, under any circumstances, render water and/or sewer service to the DEVELOPER'S property until such time as the fees and/or charges specified herein have been paid in full. 5. OTHER USES ON THE PROPERTY. If the DEVELOPER constructs buildings other than those outlined in paragraph 4 above, or otherwise changes the use of structures built such that paragraph 4 is no longer an accurate description of the uses at the DEVELOPER'S property, the COUNTY shall determine if additional capacity is needed, as calculated using Exhibit "B" attached hereto and as revised by the COUNTY from time to time. If additional capacity is required, connection charges, computed at prevailing rates, capacity allocation, if available, and construction connection charges, if any, shall be required to be paid by the DEVELOPER. If requested by the DEPARTMENT, the Page 3 of 15 WATSON ISLAND AIR TRANSPORTATION FACILITY, ID# 22183 DEVELOPER shall provide the COUNTY a list of all tenants and building units and/or use prior to the installation of any water meters and/or rendition of sewer service by the COUNTY for the DEVELOPER'S property. 6. POINTS OF CONNECTION. The DEPARTMENT shall provide points of connection to the DEVELOPER based on the project as specified in the Agreement. The DEVELOPER shall provide plans for the DEPARTMENT'S review based on the points of connection. Points of connection shall not be changed without prior approval by the DEPARTMENT. 7. REMOVAL/RELOCATION OF FACILITIES. The DEVELOPER hereby acknowledges and agrees that any existing COUNTY water and/or sewer facilities and all appurtenances including fire hydrants within the DEVELOPER'S property that will conflict with proposed development must be removed and/or relocated, and all easements associated with said facilities released and/or relocated. Said relocation and/or removal of facilities shall be performed by or for the DEVELOPER in accordance with plans and specifications to be approved by the COUNTY and in such a manner that there will be no interruption of services to the COUNTY'S existing customers. All costs incurred shall be borne solely by the DEVELOPER. The removal and/or relocation of certain water and/or sewer facilities and releasing and/or relocating of associated easements are conditions precedent to the issuance of water and sewer verification forms for construction of those proposed buildings that conflict with said water and/or sewer facilities, unless the DEPARTMENT is able to protect its facilities and/or associated easements through a "hold" on the foundation inspection that is issued in conjunction with Miami -Dade Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources (RER). The determination of the availability for placement of said hold shall be within the sole discretion of the DEPARTMENT. Those projects that are not within the jurisdiction of the COUNTY'S building permitting process shall not be eligible for consideration of that hold. 8. DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF FACILITIES. The DEVELOPER at its own cost and expense shall cause to be designed, constructed and installed all of the necessary water and/or sewer facilities provided for in this Agreement unless otherwise specified. The facilities shall include any and all water mains, valves, fittings, fire hydrants, firelines, service connections, service lines, shutoffs, meter boxes, air release valves, gravity sewer mains, laterals, manholes, and all appurtenances thereto for a complete installation. The final design and construction of the facilities shall meet the requirements set forth in the latest revision of the DEPARTMENT'S "Rules and Regulations" for water and/or sewer service, shall be in accordance with the latest revision of the DEPARTMENT'S "Design and Construction Standard Specifications and Details", and shall be subject to approval by the DEPARTMENT. 9. INSPECTION. The COUNTY shall have the right but not the obligation to make engineering inspections of all the construction work performed by the DEVELOPER under the terms of this Agreement including private facilities not to be conveyed to the COUNTY. Such inspections shall not be construed to constitute any guarantee on the part of the COUNTY as to the quality and condition of materials and workmanship. Any Page 4 of 15 WATSON ISLAND AIR TRANSPORTATION FACILITY, ID# 22183 inspections by the DEPARTMENT shall not relieve the DEVELOPER of any responsibility for proper construction of said facilities in accordance with approved plans and specifications. Furthermore, any inspections by the DEPARTMENT shall not relieve the DEVELOPER of responsibility for the quality and condition of materials and workmanship. 10. TESTS. During construction and at the time when various tests are required, the COUNTY'S engineer or its authorized representative, together with the DEVELOPER'S engineer and contractor, shall jointly be present to witness tests for determination of conformance with approved plans and specifications. The DEVELOPER shall notify the COUNTY a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours in advance of the tests. 11. CONSTRUCTION MEETINGS. The COUNTY reserves the right to schedule construction meetings with the DEVELOPER'S representatives (Engineer, Project Manager, Construction Superintendent and others) at a place designated by the COUNTY with respect to project related matters upon twenty-four (24) hours notice. 12. SUBCONTRACTORS AND CONSULTANTS. The COUNTY reserves the right, at any time, to bar any subcontractor or consultant employed by the DEVELOPER from engaging in any sort of work or activity related to this Agreement, if such be in the interests of the COUNTY. In the event the COUNTY rejects any subcontractor or consultant, said subcontractor or consultant will immediately cease work on anything related to this Agreement. The DEVELOPER shall not be entitled to compensation for any monies previously paid to any subcontractor or consultant if said subcontractor or consultant is rejected by the COUNTY. 13. COMPLIANCE WITH ALL LAWS. The DEVELOPER, at its own cost and expense, shall comply with all applicable laws, statutes, rules, and ordinances in carrying out the activities contemplated herein. 14. APPROVALS AND PERMITS. The DEVELOPER shall be fully responsible for obtaining all required approvals from all appropriate governmental and regulatory agencies and all necessary permits for all facilities contemplated in this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute or be interpreted as a waiver of any requirements of any other agency of Miami - Dade County and/or any requirements of the Code of Miami -Dade County. The DEVELOPER is responsible for obtaining all permits as may be required for the work contemplated herein pursuant to the Code of Miami -Dade County. 15. COUNTY AS PERMITTEE. Certain federal, state and county agencies, including but not limited to the State of Florida Department of Transportation, the South Florida Water Management District, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Florida East Coast Railroad may require that the COUNTY be named as permittee for certain construction activities even though the DEVELOPER or the DEVELOPER'S contractorwill actually perform the work. To insure that the COUNTY will incur no costs or liability as a result of being named permittee on such permits, the DEVELOPER shall provide sufficient security as acceptable to the COUNTY which shall indemnify and protect the COUNTY from all claims, actions, judgments, liability, loss, cost and expense, including reasonable Page 5 of 15 WATSON ISLAND AIR TRANSPORTATION FACILITY, ID# 22183 attorney's fees, related to work performed by the DEVELOPER pursuant to such permits. The security shall be furnished prior to the start of construction and shall be in an amount equal to the COUNTY'S cost estimate for the permit work. The DEVELOPER shall have sixty (60) days to resolve any claims by a permittor. Otherwise, the DEPARTMENT shall be entitled to pay said claims from the security. The DEVELOPER shall be liable for all costs in excess of the security. 16. WATER SERVICE LINES. Any water service lines two (2) inches or less in diameter that are required for the DEVELOPER'S property which will be directly connected to existing mains owned by the COUNTY shall be installed by COUNTY personnel only. The DEVELOPER hereby agrees to pay to the COUNTY its standard water service line installation charge, permit fees and service fees prior to any such installation. 17. OWNERSHIP OF WATER METER. The COUNTY shall own and install the required water meter as a part of any water service installation. Ownership by the COUNTY shall terminate at the outlet side of each water meter. The DEVELOPER shall pay all applicable installation fees. 18. BISCAYNE BASIN SANITARY SEWER SPECIAL CONNECTION CHARGE. The COUNTY hereby represents and the DEVELOPER acknowledges that the gravity sewer basin that will serve the DEVELOPER'S property, at the present time may not meet COUNTY criteria for conveying additional flows, including those of the proposed development within the DEVELOPER'S property as specified in paragraphs 4 and 5 hereinabove. The COUNTY intends to construct the necessary improvements, and has adopted a special connection charge to pay for the construction of necessary improvements in accordance with COUNTY Ordinance No. 13-57. The DEVELOPER acknowledges and agrees that it shall pay to the COUNTY said special connection charge in the amount of four dollars and twenty-four cents ($4.24) per average daily gallon, as specified in paragraphs 4 and 5 hereinabove, to be connected to the COUNTY'S sewer system, resulting in a total special connection charge of nine hundred fifteen dollars and eighty-four cents ($915.84), due prior to the issuance of a Verification Form. Said payment shall be a condition precedent to any obligation on the part of the COUNTY to provide service to the property. Notwithstanding the preceding, nothing contained herein shall obligate the COUNTY to provide service to the property if said service is in contravention to any consent order or agreed order to which the COUNTY is a party, or of any rule or statute. The DEPARTMENT makes no representations as to the likely date the referenced improvements will be placed into service, and DEVELOPER shall have no cause of action, at law or equity, against the COUNTY arising out of the construction of said improvements. 19. TREATMENT AND TRANSMISSION CAPACITY. In addition to the covenants and conditions set forth herein, water and sewer service to be rendered by the COUNTY is subject to the following: a. Issuance of a valid operation permit by the State of Florida for the COUNTY'S sewage treatment facility serving the DEVELOPER'S property which allows additional connections, b. Sufficient available capacity in the COUNTY'S sewer system and connection approval, as specified in paragraph 3 herein, Page 6 of 15 WATSON ISLAND AIR TRANSPORTATION FACILITY, ID# 22183 C. Available water by the COUNTY. However, in no event will the COUNTY be obligated to supply any more water or sewage treatment capacity in any one year than is called for by the building connection schedule attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit "C". Any variation from said connection schedule which results in increased yearly demand on the water resources or sewage treatment facility capacity of the COUNTY not specifically provided for in Exhibit "C" shall be subject to the written approval and consent of the DEPARTMENT and shall be dependent on the availability of the water resource and the various restrictions placed on the supply of water or the disposal of sewage by local, state and federal government agencies and the physical limitations on the COUNTY'S supply and treatment capacity. If the DEVELOPER does not utilize the yearly amount of water or sewage treatment facility allocation specified in Exhibit "C", said amount will be available to the DEVELOPER in the next calendar year subject to the limitations and provisions specified herein. 20. ALLOCATION OF CAPACITY. The COUNTY agrees to include the aforesaid allocation in its regional water supply, production and transmission facilities and regional sanitary sewer system, once the DEVELOPER is granted necessary sewer allocation, as specified in paragraph 4 hereinabove. However, it is mutually agreed and understood by the COUNTY and the DEVELOPER that the allocation of capacity by the COUNTY does not guarantee the ability of the COUNTY to supply water for the DEVELOPER'S property or the ability to receive and dispose of sewage originating from the DEVELOPER'S property. Capacity allocation is subject to local, state and federal agencies and other regulatory bodies having jurisdiction. In connection therewith, the DEVELOPER agrees that the COUNTY shall not be liable or in any way responsible for any costs, claims or losses incurred by the DEVELOPER as a result of actions by regulatory bodies, which are related to capacity allocation. 21. FACILITIES EASEMENTS If the facilities contemplated herein or any portion thereof are installed within private property outside of public right-of-way, the facilities shall be installed in the center of a twelve (12) foot wide easement for water facilities and a fifteen (15) foot wide easement for sewer facilities. Both require a twenty-five (25) foot minimum vertical clearance above the finished grade. The DEPARTMENT shall have twenty-four (24) hour access to the easement for emergency purposes. If the facilities are not located in platted easements, then easements from the City of Miami shall be delivered to the COUNTY by the DEVELOPER prior to the COUNTY'S installation of a water meter and/or the rendition of sewer service to the DEVELOPER'S property. The DEVELOPER may not place any pavers or other structures in an easement area which would prevent the DEPARTMENT, at its sole discretion, from making full use of the easement, and the DEVELOPER shall remove same, at the DEVELOPER'S cost, at the direction of the COUNTY. The DEVELOPER may place pavers or other structures in the easement area if such pavers or other structures can be removed, with minimal effort by the DEPARTMENT, in the event that such pavers or other structures need to be removed in order for the DEPARTMENT to make use of the easement; the DEVELOPER places such pavers or other structures in the easement area at its own risk, and the DEPARTMENT shall not be liable for any costs incurred by the DEVELOPER in replacing any such pavers or other structures removed by the DEPARTMENT. Page 7 of 15 WATSON ISLAND AIR TRANSPORTATION FACILITY, ID# 22183 22. CONNECTION/FRONTAGE BY OTHERS. Parties other than the DEVELOPER who own property, other than the DEVELOPER'S property, which has frontage to any water main installed pursuant to this Agreement, may apply to the COUNTY for connections to said water main. If said parties actually connect and/or abut said facilities, the COUNTY will impose a construction connection charge equal to thirty-five dollars ($35.00) for the twelve (12) inch water main, multiplied by the front foot length of the connecting/abutting property which fronts and/or abuts the water main, as measured along the route of the main. The COUNTY will also impose construction connection charges on such other parties if said water main is required, in accordance with guidelines and criteria established by the DEPARTMENT, in order to provide adequate service for the fronting/abutting property. Said construction connection charges will not be required or collected from other parties for single-family residences occupied or under construction prior to the date of this Agreement. The COUNTY shall repay said construction connection charges to the DEVELOPER within ninety (90) days of receipt of same. However, the COUNTY'S liability for repayment to the DEVELOPER shall be limited to those amounts actually collected from others. This provision shall remain in effect for a period of twelve (12) years from the date of the Absolute Bill of Sale for the water main facilities constructed by the DEVELOPER. Per annum simple interest as established and authorized by Section 687.01, Florida Statutes, will accrue on all construction connection charges from the date of the Absolute Bill of Sale for the water main facilities constructed by the DEVELOPER to the date of payment by the connecting/abutting party. The interest rate used shall be the rate established by Section 687.01, Florida Statutes, at the time of payment by the connecting/abutting party. It shall be the DEVELOPER'S responsibility to provide the COUNTY with current mailing addresses during the twelve (12) year period. In accordance with the DEPARTMENT'S "Schedule of Water and Wastewater Fees and Charges" the DEPARTMENT shall retain a "Developer Repayment Fee" currently in the amount of 2.5% of the gross repayment amount established herein. This fee is subject to revision by the Board of County Commissioners at any time. The fee percentage used will be the current rate at the time of the payment. 23. CONVEYANCE OF TITLE. Conveyance of all easements shall be by separate instruments in recordable form as approved by the COUNTY and shall be accompanied by a written opinion of title by an attorney licensed to practice law in the State of Florida, which states that the City of Miami is the owner of the property interest to be conveyed, subject only to liens, encumbrances and restrictions as are acceptable to the COUNTY. The opinion shall also state that upon execution by the City of Miami, a valid and enforceable easement will be vested to the COUNTY. The DEVELOPER shall pay for all recording fees and for all documentary stamps. The details for all conveyances are specified herein. Failure of the DEVELOPER to provide proper conveyances shall be cause for the COUNTY to refuse to render service to the DEVELOPER'S property. 24. DRAWINGS AND CONVEYANCE DOCUMENTS. Following completion of the water and/or sewer facilities contemplated herein for COUNTY ownership, the COUNTY shall provide a conveyance package for execution by the DEVELOPER. The properly executed documents shall be delivered to and accepted by the COUNTY prior to the rendition of water and/or sewer service by the COUNTY. The DEVELOPER shall pay for all recording fees and for all documentary stamps. These conveyances shall be Page 8 of 15 WATSON ISLAND AIR TRANSPORTATION FACILITY, ID# 22183 accompanied by copies of paid bills and lien waivers, releases, or satisfactions from all persons who performed work on the DEVELOPER'S property and all persons who incorporate materials into the property, together with a breakdown of the actual cost of said facilities. Concurrently, the DEVELOPER shall furnish the COUNTY with as -built drawings which meet the requirements set forth in the latest revision of the DEPARTMENT'S "Rules and Regulations" and shall be in accordance with the latest revision of the DEPARTMENT'S "Design and Construction Standard Specifications and Details", and shall be subject to approval by the DEPARTMENT. Approval by the COUNTY of all required documents and drawings shall constitute final acceptance by the COUNTY of said facilities. After final acceptance, the facilities shall remain at all times the sole, complete, and exclusive property of the COUNTY and under the exclusive control and operation of the COUNTY. 25. WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE BOND. The DEVELOPER warrants that the water and sewer facilities to be owned by the COUNTY shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one (1) year from final acceptance by the COUNTY. Simultaneously with the conveyance of the water and/or sewer facilities, the DEVELOPER shall deliver to the COUNTY an executed maintenance bond or alternate security deposit acceptable to the DEPARTMENT, which guarantees the warranty. If it becomes necessary to repair and/or replace any of the facilities during the initial one (1) year period, then the warranty as to those items repaired and/or replaced shall continue to remain in effect for an additional period of one (1) year from the date of final acceptance by the COUNTY of those repairs and/or replacement. The bond shall be in the amount equal to the sum of those portions of the actual cost of construction of said facilities as follows: Types of Facilities Percentage of Actual Construction Cost Water mains 25 Gravity sewers 50 The bonds shall have as the surety thereon only such surety company as is acceptable to the COUNTY and which is authorized to write bonds of such character and amount under the laws of the State of Florida. A surety company must have a Best's Key Rating Guide General Policyholder's Rating of "A" or better and a Financial Category of Class "V" or better or be acceptable to the COUNTY. The attorney-in-fact or other officer who signs a bond must file with such bonds a certified copy of his power-of-attorney authorizing him to do so. The Maintenance Bond may be written with the DEVELOPER'S contractor as "Principal" and the DEVELOPER and the COUNTY as "Co -obligees" or the COUNTY as sole "Obligee". In the alternative, the DEVELOPER may be named as "Principal" and the COUNTY as "Obligee". The Maintenance Bond shall remain in force for one (1) year following the date of final acceptance by the COUNTY of the work done pursuant to this Agreement to protect the COUNTY against losses resulting from any and all defects in materials or improper performance of work. If there is no building construction underway within the DEVELOPER'S property at the time of conveyance, the COUNTY shall have the right to require that the term of the Maintenance Bond be extended for a period not to exceed an additional two (2) years. Upon demand by the COUNTY, the DEVELOPER shall cause to be corrected all such defects which are discovered within the warranty period or periods as set forth above, failing which the COUNTY shall make such repairs and/or Page 9 of 15 WATSON ISLAND AIR TRANSPORTATION FACILITY, ID# 22183 replacements of defective work and/or materials and the DEVELOPER and/or its Surety shall be liable to the COUNTY for all costs arising therefrom.

After execution of this Agreement, work on the water and sewer facilities shall commence within three hundred sixty-five (365) days from the execution date. Work shall be considered to have commenced and be in active progress when engineering drawings are submitted to the DEPARTMENT for review and approval, and, upon the DEPARTMENT'S issuance of said approval, a full complement of workmen and equipment is present at the site to diligently incorporate materials and equipment into the construction of the water and sewer facilities throughout the day on each full working day, weather permitting. b. Once the DEVELOPER commences work on the water and sewer facilities, said work cannot be suspended, abandoned, or not in active progress for a period exceeding three hundred sixty-five (365) days. C. The remedies specified herein are cumulative with and supplemental to any other rights which the COUNTY may have pursuant to the law or any other provision of this agreement. 27. INDEMNIFICATION CLAUSE. The DEVELOPER shall indemnify and hold harmless the COUNTY and its officers, employees, agents and instrumentalities from any and all liability, losses or damages, including attorney's fees and costs of defense, which the COUNTY or its officers, employees, agents or instrumentalities may incur as a result of claims, demands, suits, causes of actions or proceedings of any kind or nature arising out of, relating to or resulting from the performance of this Agreement by the DEVELOPER or its employees, agents, servants, partners, principals, contractors and/or subcontractors. The DEVELOPER shall pay all claims and losses in connection therewith and shall investigate and defend all claims, suits or actions of any kind or nature in the name of the COUNTY, where applicable, including appellate proceedings, and shall pay all costs, judgments, and attorney's fees which may issue thereon. The DEVELOPER expressly understands and agrees that any insurance protection required by this Agreement or otherwise provided by the DEVELOPER shall in no way limit the responsibility to indemnify, keep and save harmless and defend the COUNTY or its officers, employees, agents and instrumentalities as herein provided. The provisions in this clause shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. Page 10 of 15 WATSON ISLAND AIR TRANSPORTATION FACILITY, ID# 22183 28. FORCE MAJEURE. Should either party be prevented from performing any obligations herein, including but not limited to water and/or sewer service, due to or resulting from a force majeure or inevitable accident or occurrence, such party shall be excused from performance. As used herein, force majeure shall mean an act of God which includes but is not limited to sudden, unexpected or extraordinary forces of nature such as floods, washouts, storms, hurricanes, fires, earthquakes, landslides, epidemics, explosions or other forces of nature. Inevitable accidents or occurrences shall mean those which are unpreventable by either party and shall include but not be limited to strikes, lockouts, other industrial disturbances, wars, blockades, acts of public enemies, insurrections, riots, federal, state, county and local governmental restraints and restrictions, military action, civil disturbances, explosions, conditions in federal, state, county and local permits, bid protests, manufacturing and delivery delays, unknown or unanticipated soil, water or ground conditions and cave-ins, or otherwise, and other causes reasonably beyond the control of either party, whether or not specifically enumerated herein. 29. SERVICE CHARGES.

USE OF FACILITIES BY COUNTY. The COUNTY reserves the right to make full use of the water and/or sewer facilities to be owned by the COUNTY as contemplated herein to serve other customers at any time. 31. OPINION OF TITLE. With the execution of this Agreement, the DEVELOPER at its own expense shall deliver to the DEPARTMENT an opinion of title for the DEVELOPER'S property, issued by a qualified attorney licensed to practice law in the State of Florida, which states that the City of Miami owns fee simple title to the property referred to herein, and the DEVELOPER leases such property. 32. BACTERIOLOGICAL TESTS AND INDEMNIFICATION. DEP requires that prior to the rendition of any new water service by the DEPARTMENT, bacteriological tests must be performed. It is the responsibility of the DEVELOPER to comply with all such requirements and to obtain all necessary approvals. In addition, the use of floating meters for construction purposes is subject to State of Florida requirements and approval by the COUNTY. The DEVELOPER may request approval for the use of floating meters prior to actual conveyance of title to the facilities to the COUNTY. However, the COUNTY may be required to execute documents to Miami -Dade Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources (RER) or State of Florida Department of Health (DOH), which state that the COUNTY has accepted title to the facilities. If the COUNTY is required to execute such documents, the DEVELOPER agrees to indemnify and hold the COUNTY harmless from and against all claims, actions, judgments, damages, loss, cost and expense including reasonable attorney's fees which may be incurred by the COUNTY in connection with the rendition of water service through the facilities constructed and installed by the DEVELOPER prior to conveyance of title to the COUNTY, including but not limited to those that result from failure to properly maintain and repair the water facilities.
