Therefore, in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights of Grantee hereunder at law or in equity, in the event any breach, default or violation of any term, provision, covenant or obligation on Grantor's part to be observed or performed pursuant to this Easement is not cured by Grantor within fifteen (15) days notice thereof by Grantee (which notice requirement is expressly waived by Grantor with respect to any such breach, default or violation which, in Grantee's reasonable judgment, requires immediate action to preserve and protect any of the open space values or otherwise to further the purposes of this Easement), Grantee shall have the right at Grantor's sole cost and expense and at Grantee's election, (i) To institute a suit to enjoin or cure such breach, default or violation by temporary and/or permanent injunction, (ii) To enter upon the Property and exercise reasonable efforts to terminate or cure such breach, default or violation and/or to cause the restoration of that portion of the Property affected by such breach, default or violation to the condition that existed prior thereto, or (iii) To seek or enforce such other legal and/or equitable relief or remedies as Grantee deems necessary or desirable to ensure compliance with the terms, conditions, covenants, obligations and purposes of this Easement; provided, however, that any failure, delay or election to so act by Grantee shall not be deemed to be a waiver or a forfeiture of any right or available remedy on Grantee's part with respect to such breach, default, or violation or with respect to any other breach, default or 9 violation of any term, condition, covenant or obligation under this Easement. The prevailing party, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall pay to the other all reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and other expenses incurred (herein called "Legal Expenses") in connection with any proceedings under this Section. 6.04 Notice All notices required by this Easement must be written.

Notice shall be deemed given and received as of the date of its manual delivery or the date of its mailing. 6.05 No Waiver Grantee's exercise of one remedy or relief under this ARTTCLE SIX shall not have the effect of waiving or limiting any other remedy or relief, and the failure to exercise or delay in exercising any remedy shall not constitute a waiver of any other remedy or relief or the use of such other remedy or relief at any other time. 6.06 Extinguishment/Condemnation If at any time the Property or any portion thereof shall be taken or condemned by eminent domain, by the Grantee or by any other governmental entity, then this Easement shall terminate with respect to the Property, or portions thereof so taken or condemned, and the Property shall not be subject to the limitations and restrictions of this Easement. In such event, the Grantor, its successors or assigns, shall not be required to pay any penalties, but the value of the Property shall reflect the limitations of this Easement. Any condemnation award payable to the Grantor shall be in proportion to the value attributable to the residual agricultural and/or open space value of the Property and if the condemnation is undertaken by an entity other than the Grantee, then the remaining portion of the condemnation award shall be payable to the Grantee in proportion to the value attributable to the development rights transferred hereby.

As Councilman Wickham mentioned, this is the purchase of a Septemb'er 21, 2004 Public Hearing- Grippa Purchase development fights easement on nine of eleven acres of the Grippa's property. The Grippa's have given the Town an excellent oppommity to preserve a significant property ha Mattituck. The Grippa's property is located across County Route 48 in the recreational land that we know as Straxvberry Fields. It is also located across Smmd Avenue fi:om what is known as the Laurel Lake Preserve, which is somexvhere in the realm of 500 plus or minus acres and on which the Town is developing a trail system. The properties location in regard to other preserved parcels can be seen on the maps in the ~ont. The green represents preserved parcel and the red shows the Grippa's property and also another pending open space application. The Grippa's property has over 1800 feet of fi~ontage on Cou.uty Route 48, it is on the Town's Community Preservation plan and on the Town's Fam~land Inventory as -property that should be preserved. Preservation of this property will con.tribute to maintaining the rural character on this.part of County Rotite 48. The proposal is to create a reserve~ area, that is an. area not within the development fights, easement of approximately txvo acres, inclrtding and in the vicinity of, the existing dwelling and the accessory structures on their property, and to ineIude the remaining property of approximately nine acre~ within the development fights easement. This project preserves over 80% of the property and does not include any: additional residential lot~. The Land Preservation Committee and I'both support the Town's purchase of this si*~caificant easement and of course, I would like to extend my thanks ~o the Grippa's for participating in the Town's preservation efforts. Thanks. SUPERVISOR I-IORTON: Thank you, Melissa. Would anybody care to address the Board on this public hearing? (No response) Wewill close the hearing. Southold Town Clerk
