Box 1179, Southold, New York 11971. WHEREAS: A. Grantor is the owner of certain real property (the "Property") consisting of 22.50 acres, located on 17405 NYS Route 25, Mattituck, in the Town of Southold, Suffolk County,New York, designated as SCTM# 1000-115-2-6, of which 18.00 acres is subject to this Deed of Conservation Easement (hereinafter, the "Property") and more fully described in the legal survey description of the Property ("EXHIBIT A") and shown on the reduced copy of the survey ("EXHIBIT B"), both attached hereto and made a part hereof. B. Grantee is a municipal corporation and has the authority pursuant to Section 247 of the General Municipal Law and Article 49, Title 3 of the New York Environmental Conservation Law (the "ECL") to acquire conservation easements. C. The Property consists primarily of productive agricultural land. The Property contains 18.00 acres of prime soils as defined by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service. D. Article 14, Section 4 of the New York State Constitution states that"the policy of this state shall be to conserve and protect its natural resources and scenic beauty and encourage the development and improvement of its agricultural lands for the production of food and other agricultural products;" E. In Section 49-0301 of the ECL, the Legislature of the State of New York found and declared that "in order to implement the state policy of conserving, preserving and protecting its environmental assets and natural and man-made resources, the preservation of open spaces, and the preservation, development and improvement of agricultural and forest lands..., is fundamental to the maintenance, enhancement and improvement of...balanced economic growth and the quality of life in all areas of the state;" F. The Property is located within Suffolk County's Agricultural District#1, created pursuant to Article 25AA of the New York State Agriculture and Markets Law. In Section 300, it states: "It is hereby found and declared that many of the agricultural lands in New York State are in jeopardy of being lost for any agricultural purposes. When nonagricultural development extends into farm areas, competition for limited resources results...It is therefore the declared policy of the state to conserve, protect and encourage the development and improvement of its 1 out of 16 agricultural land for production of food and other agricultural products...It is the purpose of this article to provide a locally-initiated mechanism for the protection and enhancement of New York State's agricultural land as a viable segment of the local and state economies and as an economic and environmental resource of major importance;" G. Article 25-AAA, Section 321 of the Agriculture and Markets Law states that "It is hereby found and declared that agricultural lands are irreplaceable state assets. In an effort to maintain the economic viability, and the environmental and landscape preservation values associated with agriculture..." the Commissioner is authorized to administer programs to assist counties in developing agricultural and farmland protection plans and to assist both county and municipal governments in the implementation of such plans. The Commissioner gives priority to projects that will preserve viable agricultural land, are located in areas facing significant development pressure and serve as a buffer for a significant natural public resource containing important ecosystem or habitat characteristics; H. The Property is located within the Town of Southold, which has adopted the Southold Town Farm and Farmland Protection Strategy, dated January, 2000. The Plan recommends that the Town continue its efforts to preserve land suitable for farming and ensure that farming remains an important part of the local economy. The Plan also recommends that the Town participate in partnership efforts with the Federal, State and County governments and related grant programs in order to use the Town's limited financial resources most effectively. 1. The Property is also located within the County of Suffolk, which has adopted an Agricultural and Farmland Protection Plan dated June 1996, which recommends the continued preservation of productive farmland through the purchase of development rights. In addition, the Plan sets forth the following goals: to preserve agriculture as an important industry in Suffolk County, preserve farmland as an important natural resource, and preserve the cultural continuity of farms and farm families. The plan seeks to preserve 20,000 acres of productive farmland through the purchase of development rights and to ensure that public policy protects, promotes and sustains agriculture. J. Grantor has received independent legal and financial advice regarding this Easement to the extent that Grantor has deemed necessary. Grantor freely signs this Easement in order to accomplish its conservation purposes.

Extinguishment of Development Rights. Except as otherwise reserved to the Grantor in this Easement, all non-agricultural development rights appurtenant to the Property are hereby released, terminated and extinguished, and may not be used on or transferred to any portion of the Property as it now or hereafter may be bounded or described,or to any other property adjacent or otherwise, or used for the purpose of calculating permissible lot yield of the Property or any other property. 19. Baseline Documentation. By its execution of this Easement, Grantee acknowledges that the present uses of, and related structures and improvements on the Property are permitted by this Easement. In order to evidence the present condition of the Property so as to facilitate future monitoring and enforcement of this Easement, a Baseline Documentation Report, including relevant maps and photographs, describing such condition at the date hereof, has been prepared and subscribed by both parties, and a copy thereof has been delivered to Grantor and a copy will be kept on file with Grantee. The Report may be used by Grantee to establish that a change in the use or character of the Property has occurred, but its existence shall not preclude the use by Grantee of other evidence to establish the condition of the Property as of the date of this Easement. 20. Right of Inspection. Grantee shall have the right to enter upon the Property with forty-eight(48)hours advance notice to Grantor for the purpose of inspecting for compliance with the terms of this Easement. Such inspection shall be conducted between the hours of 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. on a weekday that is not a legal holiday recognized by the State of New York or at a date and time agreeable to the Grantee and Grantor.

Representatives of the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets shall have the same right of inspection. 10 out of 16 21.Enforcement. If Grantee determines that a violation of this Easement has occurred, Grantee shall so notify Grantor, giving Grantor thirty (30) days to cure the violation.

In addition to injunctive relief, Grantee shall be entitled to seek the following remedies in the event of a violation: (a) money damages, including damages for the loss of the resources protected under the Purpose of this Easement; and(b) restoration of the Property to its condition existing prior to such violation. Said remedies shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to all remedies now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. In any case where a court finds that a violation has occurred, Grantor shall reimburse Grantee for all its expenses incurred in stopping and correcting the violation, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees. The failure of Grantee to discover a violation or to take immediate legal action shall not bar Grantee from doing so at a later time. In any case where a court finds no violation has occurred, each party shall bear its own costs. 22. Transfer of Easement. Grantee shall have the right to transfer this Easement to any private non-governmental organization or public agency that, at the time of transfer is a"public body" or"not-for-profit conservation organization" as defined by Article 49 of New York State Environmental Conservation Law or "qualified organization"under Section 170(h)of the Code, provided the transferee expressly agrees to assume the responsibility imposed on Grantee by this Easement. If Grantee ever ceases to exist or qualify under Article 49 of New York State Environmental Conservation Law and Section 170(h) of the Code, a court of competent jurisdiction shall transfer this Easement to another qualified organization having similar purposes that agrees to assume the responsibilities imposed by this Easement. Grantor and the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets must be notified in writing in advance of any such transfer. The Department of Agriculture and Markets must approve the choice of any new non-governmental organization or public agency designated as"Grantee" and shall not unreasonably withhold or delay such approval. 23. Transfer of Property. Any subsequent conveyance, including, without limitation, transfer, lease or mortgage of the Property, shall be subject to this Easement, and any deed or other instrument evidencing or effecting such conveyance shall contain language substantially as follows: "This conveyance, lease, mortgage, easement, etc. is subject to a Conservation Easement which runs with the land and which was granted to the Town of Southold, Suffolk County,New York by instrument dated July 30, 2013, and recorded in the office of the Clerk of Suffolk County at Liber Page " Grantor shall notify Grantee and the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets in writing at least thirty (30) days before conveying the Property,or any part thereof or interest therein,to any third party. The failure to notify Grantee or New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets or to include said language in any deed or instrument shall not, however, affect the 11 out of 16 validity or applicability of this Easement to the Property or limit its enforceability in any way. 24. Alienation No property rights acquired by Grantee hereunder shall be alienated except upon notice to the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets and pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 70 of the Town Code, or any successor chapter, following a public hearing and, thereafter, ratified by a mandatory referendum by the electors of the Town of Southold. No subsequent amendment of the provisions of the Town Code shall alter the limitations placed upon the alienation of these property rights or interests which were acquired by the Town prior to any such amendment. In the event of any such alienation as provided in this Section 24, Section 27 ("Proceeds") of this Easement shall apply to such alienation. 25. Amendment of Easement. This Easement may be amended only with the written consent of Grantee and current Grantor and with the approval of the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets. Any such amendment shall be consistent with the Purpose of this Easement and shall comply with the Environmental Conservation Law or any regulations promulgated thereunder, and shall not unreasonably restrict or regulate farm operations in contravention of the purposes of Article 25-AA of the Agriculture and Markets Law or such successor law as enacted or amended. Any such amendment to this Easement shall be duly recorded. 26. Extinguishment of Easement. At the mutual request of Grantor, Grantee, and the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets, a court with jurisdiction may, if it determines that conditions surrounding the Property have changed so much that it becomes impossible to fulfill the Purpose of this Easement described in Section 2 ("Purpose"), extinguish or modify this Easement in accordance with applicable law. In that case,the mere cessation of farming on the Property shall not be construed to be grounds for extinguishment of this Easement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if condemnation by exercise of the power of eminent domain, make impossible the continued use of the Property for the Purpose of this Easement as described in Section 2 ("Purpose") herein, the restrictions may be extinguished by judicial proceeding. In either case, upon any subsequent sale, exchange or involuntary conversion by the Grantor, Grantee shall be entitled to a portion of the proceeds from any subsequent sale or other disposition of the Property, or title insurance proceeds, in accordance with Section 27 ("Proceeds") herein. In the event that Grantor retains the Property subsequent to any such extinguishment or partial extinguishment, Grantee shall be entitled to receive from Grantor an amount equal to the fair market value of the Property or a portion of the Property as to which the extinguishment applies times the percentage determined under Section 27. 27. Proceeds. The grant of this Easement gives rise to a property right, immediately vested in Grantee,which,for 12 out of 16 purposes of calculating value in the event of any such extinguishment or partial extinguishment, alienation or proceeds from a sale or other disposition of the Property as contemplated under Section 24 ("Alienation") or Section 26 ("Extinguishment of Easement'), shall have a value equal to a percentage of the value of the Property unencumbered by this Easement(the "Proportionate Share"). The Proportionate Share is determined by dividing the value of this Easement, calculated as of the date hereof, by the unencumbered value of the Property, also calculated as of the date hereof. The Proportionate Share is 76%. The Proportionate Share shall remain constant(subject to reasonable adjustment to the extent permissible under Section 170(h) of the Internal Revenue Code for any improvements which may hereafter be made on the Property). With regard to the portion of such Proportionate Share equal to that paid using State Farmland Protection Program Grant funds, Grantees agree to use such portion in a manner consistent with the primary Purpose of this Easement; to enable land to remain in active agricultural and forestry use. Prior to such re-use, Grantee must notify the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets 28. Interpretation. This Easement shall be interpreted under the laws of the State of New York,or federal law, as appropriate. Any general rule of construction to the contrary notwithstanding,this Easement shall be liberally construed to affect the Purpose of this Easement. If any provision in this Easement is found to be ambiguous, an interpretation consistent with the Purpose of this Easement that would render the provision valid shall be favored over any interpretation that would render it invalid. 29. Successors. Every provision of this Easement that applies to Grantor or Grantee shall also apply to their respective agents, heirs, executors, administrators, assigns, and other successors in interest, and shall continue as a servitude running in perpetuity with the Property. 30. Severability. Invalidity of any of the covenants,terms or conditions of this Easement, or any part thereof, by court order or judgment shall in no way affect the validity of any of the other provisions hereof which shall remain in full force and effect. 31.Notices.

Subsequent Liens on Property. No provisions of this Easement should be construed as impairing the ability of Grantor to use this Property, or a portion thereof encompassing entire separately deeded parcels,as collateral for a subsequent borrowing. Any subsequent liens on the Property must be subordinate to this Easement. 34. Subsequent Encumbrances. The grant of any easements or use restrictions is prohibited, except with the permission of Grantee. Any future encumbrances shall be consistent with the primary Purpose of this Easement and shall not unreasonably restrict or regulate farm operations in contravention of the purposes of Article 25-AA of the Agriculture and Markets Law. 35. Grantor's Environmental Warranty. Grantor warrants that it has no actual knowledge of a release or threatened release of hazardous substances or wastes on the Property, as such substances and wastes are defined by applicable law, and hereby promises to hold harmless, defend, and indemnify Grantee and New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets against and from, any and all loss,cost, claim(without regard to its merit), liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from or with respect to any release of hazardous waste or violation of environmental laws. If at any time after the effective date of this Easement there occurs a release in, on, or about the property of any substance now or hereafter defined, listed, or otherwise classified pursuant to any federal, state, or local law, regulation, or requirement as hazardous, toxic, polluting, or otherwise contaminating to the air, water, or soil, or in any way harmful or threatening to human health or the environment, Grantor agrees to take all steps that may be required under federal, state, or local law necessary to assure its containment and remediation, including any cleanup. Nothing in this Easement shall be construed as giving rise to any right or ability in Grantee, or the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets to exercise physical or management control over the day-to-day operations of the Property, or any of Grantor's activities on the Property, or otherwise to become an operator or arranger with respect to the Property within the meaning of The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended ("CERCLA") or any corresponding state and local statute or ordinance. 36. Duration of Easement. Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, this Easement shall be of perpetual duration,and no merger of title, estate or interest shall be deemed effected by any previous,contemporaneous, or 14 out of 16 subsequent deed, grant, or assignment of an interest or estate in the Property, or any portion thereof,to Grantee, it being the express intent of the parties that this Easement not be extinguished by,or merged into, any other interest or estate in the Property now or hereafter held by Grantee. 37.

No waiver by Grantee of any default, or breach hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default or breach hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. No waiver shall be binding unless executed in writing by Grantee. 39. Binding Effect. The provisions of this Easement shall run with the Property in perpetuity and shall bind and be enforceable against the Grantor and all future owners and any party entitled to possess or use the Property or any portion thereof while such party is the owner or entitled to possession or use thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon any transfer of title, the transferor shall, with respect to the Property transferred cease being a Grantor or owner with respect to such Property for purposes of this Easement and shall, with respect to the Property transferred, have no further responsibility, rights or liability hereunder for acts done or conditions arising thereafter on or with respect to such Property, but the transferor shall remain liable for earlier acts and conditions done or occurring during the period of his or her ownership or conduct. 40.
