AN ORDINANCE relating to the Olympic Sculpture Park, granting to the Seattle Art Museum permission to construct, maintain and operate two (2) skybridges for pedestrian access over and across: 1) Elliott Avenue between Bay Street and Broad Street, and 2) Alaskan Way between Bay Street and Broad Street, for a twenty-five -year term, renewable for one additional twenty-five-year term, specifying the conditions under which this permit is granted, providing for acceptance of the permit and conditions, and authorizing acceptance of a Grant of Access and Maintenance Rights over the skybridges and adjacent property. WHEREAS, the Seattle Art Museum ("SAM") proposes to develop the Olympic Sculpture Park ("OSP") on the two city blocks bounded by Bay Street, Western Avenue, Broad Street and Alaskan Way, and on the waterfront parcel owned by the City of Seattle ("City") to the west of Alaskan Way next to Myrtle Edwards Park; and WHEREAS, by Resolution 30760 the City Council, with the Mayor concurring, approved the design of the OSP; and WHEREAS, by Resolution 30771 the City Council, with the Mayor concurring, granted conceptual approval of two pedestrian skybridges, one crossing over Elliott Avenue between Bay and Broad Streets and the other crossing over Alaskan Way between Bay and Broad Streets, as proposed by SAM as part of its development of the OSP; and WHEREAS, pursuant to Seattle Municipal Code ("SMC") Chapter 15.64, SAM has submitted the information required for the Director of Transportation ("Director") to make a recommendation to the Council on whether to grant or deny conceptual approval, and the Director has circulated the information to the Seattle Design Commission, and to the City departments and public and private utilities interested in or affected by the proposed skybridges, and compiled the responses (C.F. 307255); and WHEREAS, the departments and utilities have no objections to the conceptual design of the skybridges, and the Design Commission supports the two proposed skybridges as a core element of the OSP design and recommends that the Council approve the final application; and WHEREAS, in making her recommendation, the Director considered the 12 elements set forth at SMC 15.64.050.B, and recommended that conceptual approval be granted; and WHEREAS, the adoption of this ordinance is the culmination of the approval process for the skybridges and will allow SAM to move forward with construction of the skybridges; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY OF SEATTLE AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Permit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this ordinance (otherwise known as the "Permit"), permission is hereby granted to the Seattle Art Museum ("SAM") (referred to, together with any transferee allowed by the City pursuant to this ordinance, as "Permittee") to construct, maintain and operate, in conjunction with the Olympic Sculpture Park ("OSP" or "Park") a skybridge over and across Elliott Avenue between Bay Street and Broad Street ("Elliott Avenue Bridge"), and a skybridge over and across a portion of Alaskan Way between Bay Street and Broad Street, including the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway franchise area ("Alaskan Way Bridge") (together the "skybridges"). The Elliott Avenue Bridge will support the Park's central pathway, seating areas, sculpture and landscaping on a vee-shaped structure with an average width of 72 feet, located approximately 20 feet above street grade, and will connect Western Avenue and Broad Street and the eastern-most OSP parcel, lying between Western Avenue and Elliott Avenue, with the parcel lying between Elliott Avenue and Alaskan Way, as shown on Exhibit 2 to Attachment A hereto. The Alaskan Way Bridge will also support the central pathway, seating areas, sculpture and landscaping on a structure with an average width of 75 feet, located approximately 24 feet above the surface of the right-of-way, and will connect the eastern OSP parcels with that portion of Alaskan Way designated as a park boulevard by Ordinance 121721 ("the Boulevard") and provide access to SAM's tideland parcel and Myrtle Edwards Park's southern entrance, as shown on Exhibit 2 to Attachment A hereto. The Alaskan Way Bridge also includes the ramp, stairs and abutment where it connects with the Boulevard. SAM's use of the Boulevard as part of the OSP is to be governed by a separate Operation and Maintenance Agreement, to be approved by ordinance, between the City and SAM. Section 2. Use of Skybridges; Duration and Renewal of Permit. For as long as the Permit remains in effect as to at least one skybridge and that skybridge remains in place, the property described on Attachment B hereto shall be used by SAM or its assignee of this Permit as a sculpture park that is open and free to the public, subject to the terms of any operations and management agreement approved by ordinance, which park may include accessory uses such as exhibition, special events and retail uses in the pavilion and underground parking. The Permit hereby granted is for a term of twenty-five (25) years, commencing when the conditions in Sections 1 and 16 have been met and terminating at 11:59 p.m. on the last day of the twenty-fifth year; provided, however, that upon written application of the Permittee at least thirty (30) days before the expiration of the term, the Director may renew the Permit for one additional term, for a total term of fifty (50) years. The Permit is granted subject to the right of the City by ordinance to revise any of the terms and conditions contained herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Permittee has made timely application for renewal of the Permit in accordance with this section, or for a new permit if and when this Permit expires in 50 years, and the City has not taken the necessary action to renew or grant, or to deny the renewal or grant of, a permit prior to the expiration of the term or the renewal term, the Permit shall be deemed extended until such time as the City takes action on such permit application, and in the case of an appeal to the Mayor or Director as described in Section 4 of this ordinance, shall be deemed extended until the Mayor or Director makes a decision and for any further period in which the City has the option to revise permit conditions in light of such decision as described in Section 4 of this ordinance. Section 3. Termination of Permit; Removal of Skybridges. The Permit hereby granted to use portions of Elliott Avenue and Alaskan Way for skybridges is subordinate to the public's use for transportation purposes, and the City expressly reserves the right to terminate this Permit as to one or both skybridges and/or to require the Permittee to remove the skybridges or any portion thereof at the Permittee's sole cost and expense if one more of the following occur: (a) The City Council determines, by ordinance, that the space occupied by a skybridge is necessary for any non-pedestrian public travel or transportation use, or that a skybridge interferes with any public transportation use. Such a City Council determination shall be conclusive and final. (b) The Director determines that any term or condition of this Permit has been violated, and the Permittee does not correct such violation within thirty (30) days of written notification from the City, or within such longer period of time that the Director determines is necessary for Permittee to correct the violation. (c) The Permittee does not apply for a renewal of this Permit in a timely manner or its renewal application is denied. (d) The Permittee does not apply for a new permit, if this Permit is renewed and expires in fifty (50) years, before such expiration, or its new permit application is denied. Subject to the City's right to assume ownership and operation of a skybridge under Section 4 of this ordinance, the Permittee shall, within ninety (90) days after the expiration of this Permit, its termination (including any termination resulting from failure of the Permittee to accept renewal or satisfy the conditions of renewal), or the date of a City order of removal, or prior to the date stated in an "Order to Remove," as the case may be, the Permittee shall remove the skybridge(s) and shall place all portions of Elliott Avenue and/or Alaskan Way that may have been disturbed for any part of a skybridge in as good condition for public use as they were prior to construction, and in at least as good condition in all respects as the abutting portions thereof at the time of such removal. If the Permittee becomes obligated to remove a skybridge, then the Permittee shall remove all sculpture and other art installations from the Boulevard and the skybridges. Upon removal of the skybridges and completion by the Permittee of all required restoration, the Director shall issue a certificate discharging the Permittee from responsibility under this ordinance for occurrences after the date of such discharge. Section 4. City Ownership and Operation of Skybridges. Because the skybridges will constitute a transportation use and benefit to the public by providing a pedestrian walkway above the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway and Elliott Avenue connecting the Boulevard to the OSP and adjacent public streets, upon termination of the permission granted by this ordinance as to such skybridge(s) the City may elect to assume ownership and operation of one or both of the skybridges as a City facility, for a period ending fifty (50) years after the commencement of the term of this Permit, but only in any of the following cases: (A) if the Permittee does not seek renewal of the Permit at least thirty (30) days before the expiration of the initial term; (B) if the City terminates the Permit as to such skybridge(s) pursuant to Section 3(b) of this ordinance or the permit terminates in the circumstances set forth in Section 3(c) of this ordinance; or (C) if the Permittee seeks renewal of the Permit in a timely manner but does not accept in a timely manner, or does not comply in a timely manner with, the conditions of such renewal, but if SAM is the Permittee and is operating the property described in Attachment B as the OSP at the time renewal is timely sought and SAM contends any new Permit provision or any new condition established by the City for renewal of the Permit is unduly burdensome on SAM, then SAM within 20 days notice of the conditions for renewal may appeal in writing to the Director and to the Mayor, and if either of those officers determines the new provision(s) or condition(s) to be unduly burdensome he or she shall, within 20 days of receiving the appeal, state in writing in what respect it is so, and the City shall thereafter have an additional 60 days to revise the provision(s) or condition(s) for renewal; and if the City does not within such period revise the provision(s) or condition(s) so as to eliminate all aspects the Director or Mayor determined to be unduly burdensome, the City shall thereby forfeit its option to assume ownership and operation under this Subsection 4(C) for SAM's failure to accept or to timely comply with a provision or condition so determined to be unduly burdensome. Both parties retain their rights to seek judicial review of the rights and obligations created by this Permit, including whether a permit provision or condition included a future renewal is unduly burdensome, in addition to the administrative and executive appeal remedies stated in this subsection. Upon the City's election to assume ownership and operation, ownership of the skybridge structure(s) shall vest in the City, subject to reversion, at the end of such fifty (50) year period, to SAM or its successors and assigns as owners of the parcel(s) abutting the skybridge. Upon such reversion, SAM and any such other owners each shall be obligated promptly and at their own expense to remove such skybridge(s) and restore the right of way as described in Section 3, provided that if the then owner(s) of such parcels shall apply to the City for a new permit to maintain such skybridge(s) within fifteen (15) days after such reversion, the obligation to remove shall be deferred until thirty (30) days after denial of such application, or if such application shall be granted, until such time as the skybridge(s) must be removed pursuant to the terms of the new permit. At the City's election, at the time when the City shall assume ownership of a skybridge, all additions, fixtures and improvements made to or constructed upon the skybridges shall remain without compensation to the Permittee, except that the Permittee may elect to remove, within fifteen (15) days after the City shall assume ownership, any sculptures and other art installations, on the following conditions: (i) that if any sculpture or installation serves as a structural or safety feature of the skybridge or as a feature required by any applicable law or regulation, the Permittee shall cause a replacement feature to be installed satisfactory to the Director immediately after such removal; and (ii) that the Permittee forthwith repair any damage to the skybridge caused in the course of any removals. In the discretion of the Director, the Permittee may be required to post a bond for the costs of replacement or restoration prior to undertaking any removals. While the City owns a skybridge, the City may at its own expense repair, maintain, alter, reconstruct, replace, or remove that skybridge as it determines appropriate from time to time, and the reversionary rights of SAM or its successors and assigns as owners of the parcel(s) abutting the skybridge pertain only to whatever structure, if any, is in place at the end of the 50-year period. Section 5. Grant of Access and Maintenance Rights. As a precondition to the grant of this Permit, SAM shall deliver to the City a document ("Grant") granting to the City rights of public access along the central vee-shaped pathway that originates on Western Avenue at the intersection of Western Avenue and Broad Street and extends across both skybridges to the waterfront parcel and Myrtle Edwards Park, and with public access to Broad Street across SAM land and Museum Development Authority land per Section 5C of the Grant, all as described in the form of the required Grant. The form of the required Grant, including the maps and other exhibits to the Grant, is Attachment A hereto. At the time the Grant required herein is delivered to the City, the property described in Attachment B hereto shall not be encumbered in any way other than what is shown in Attachment C. The Museum Development Authority must join in the Grant as provided in Section 16, both as lessee/sublessor and to provide public access according to subsection 5C of the Grant. The Director is authorized to accept the Grant, and to enforce and administer the rights of the City thereunder. The Superintendent of Parks and Recreation is authorized to participate in dispute resolution proceedings regarding the respective rights and obligations of the parties to the Grant, and their agents and successors, as specified in the form of the Grant. Section 6. Reconstruction, Relocation, Readjustment and Repair. The Permittee shall not commence reconstruction, relocation, readjustment or repair, other than routine repair and maintenance, of the skybridges except under the supervision of, and in strict accordance with plans and specifications approved by the Director. After notice to and consultation with Permittee, the Director in his/her judgment may order reconstruction, relocation, readjustment or repair of the skybridges at the Permittee's own cost and expense because of the deterioration or unsafe condition of the skybridges. Section 7. Closure. After notice to the Permittee, and failure of the Permittee to correct any condition that is inconsistent with the Permit or the Grant within the time stated in such notice, the Director may order a skybridge closed if the Director deems that it has become unsafe or creates a risk of injury to the public. In a situation in which there is an immediate threat to the health or safety of the public, notice is not required. Section 8. Discharge of Permittee's Obligations. Not withstanding termination or expiration of the permission granted, or removal of the skybridges, the Permittee shall remain bound by its obligations under this ordinance until: (a) The bridges and all related equipment and property are removed from the streets, the Boulevard or any other boulevard; (b) The area is cleared and restored in a manner and to a condition satisfactory to the Director; and (c) The Director certifies that the Permittee has discharged its obligations herein. Section 9. Release; Indemnification; Duty to Defend. Except as otherwise provided herein, the skybridges shall remain the exclusive responsibility of the Permittee. The Permittee, by acceptance of this ordinance and the Permit hereby granted, does release the City from any and all claims resulting from damage or loss to Permittee's own property, and covenants and agrees with the City, to at all times indemnify, defend and save harmless the City from all claims, actions, suits, liability, loss, costs, expense or damages of every kind and description (excepting only such damages that may result from the sole negligence of the City), that may accrue to, or be suffered by, any person or persons and/or property or properties, including without limitation, damage or injury to the Permittee, its officers, agents, employees, contractors, invitees, tenants and tenants' invitees, or licensees, by reason of the Permittee's maintenance, operation or use of said skybridges, or any portion thereof, or by reason of anything that has been done or omitted, or may at any time be done or omitted, by the Permittee by reason of this ordinance, or by reason of the Permittee's failure or refusal to strictly comply with each and every provision of this ordinance (collectively "Indemnified Actions"); and if any such suit, action or claim be filed, instituted or begun against the City for an Indemnified Action, the Permittee shall, upon notice thereof from the City, defend the Indemnified Action at its sole cost and expense with counsel acceptable to the City, and in case judgment shall be rendered against the City in any suit or action for an Indemnified Action, the Permittee shall fully satisfy said judgment within ninety (90) days after such action or suit shall have been finally determined, if determined adversely to the City. Provided that if it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, that RCW 4.24.115 applies to this ordinance or that other concurrent negligence has occurred for which the City is liable to a third party other than in regard to any condition caused by the failure of the Permittee to comply with any obligation under this Permit, the Grant or another agreement with the City, then in the event claims or damages are caused by or result from the concurrent negligence of: (a) The City, its agents, contractors or employees; and (b) The Permittee, its agents, contractors, or employees, then the Permittee's obligation shall be limited to the extent of the Permittee's negligence and, to the extent consistent with applicable law, the negligence of the Permittee's agents, contractors or employees. The City shall indemnify SAM for any claims for loss or damage by third parties to the extent they result from the negligent or otherwise wrongful act of the City or its employees, agents or contractors in the exercise of rights under this Permit on the SAM Property, MDA Property or the skybridges, but only if and to the extent that all of the following apply: (a) the claim is one for which the City would be liable under applicable law, if brought directly against the City by the third party; and (b) the claim is not one for which the City would have a right to indemnity from the Permittee under this Section; and (c) the claim is not covered by insurance maintained by the Permittee; and (d) the claim was not required to have been covered by insurance maintained by the Permittee under the terms of this Permit or by SAM under any contract between SAM and the City. Section 10. Environmental Agreement. The parties acknowledge the existing Environmental Agreement between the City and SAM dated December 7, 1999 ("Environmental Agreement"), deals with the parties' respective obligations relating to contamination and environmental conditions in the City rights-of-way. No change of rights, obligations, or responsibilities under the existing Environmental Agreement shall occur as a result of this Ordinance or Permit, except as expressly provided in this section. Permittee shall be responsible for any and all costs that arise from or are related to soil removal, if required, and recapping of soil, if required, to the extent required to complete Permittee's construction of the skybridges. Such costs include, but are not limited to, disposal of contaminated soil or groundwater that is removed during construction, replacement of material that is capping contaminated soil and is disturbed during construction, mitigation measures required by permitting authorities, and worker safety measures required for construction on a contaminated site. Section 11. Insurance. For as long as the Permittee shall exercise any permission granted by this ordinance or until the skybridges are entirely removed from their location as described in Section 3, whichever is longer, but not including any period during which both skybridges or the sole remaining skybridge shall be owned by the City pursuant to the terms of this ordinance, and unless discharged by order of the Director as provided in Section 8 of this ordinance, the Permittee shall obtain and maintain in full force and effect, at its own expense, insurance policies that protect the City from any and all loss, damages, suits, liability, claims, demands or costs resulting from injury or harm to persons or property. Minimum insurance requirements shall be an occurrence form policy of commercial general liability, placed with a company admitted and licensed to conduct business in Washington State. Minimum policy limits shall be $2,000,000 per occurrence, $4,000,000 annual aggregate. Coverage shall specifically name the skybridge exposure. Coverage shall add by endorsement The City of Seattle, its elected and appointed officers, officials, employees and agents as additional insured. Coverage shall contain a Separation of Insured's Clause indicating essentially that "except with respect to the limits of insurance, and any rights or duties specifically assigned in this coverage part to the first named insured, this insurance applies as if each named insured were the only named insured, and separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought." Evidence of current coverage shall be submitted to the City in the form of a copy of the full insurance policy with all endorsements attached thereto, and is a condition to the validity of this Permit. Whenever in the judgment of the City's Risk Manager, such insurance filed pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be deemed insufficient to fully protect the City, the Permittee shall, upon demand by the Risk Manager, furnish additional insurance in such amount as may be specified by the Risk Manager. Section 12. Additional Insured. The Permittee shall require that all of its contractors performing construction work on the premises as contemplated by this Permit, name the City as an additional insured on all policies of public liability insurance, and shall include in all pertinent contract documents a provision extending construction indemnities and warranties granted to SAM to the City as well. Section 13. Bond. Within sixty (60) days after the effective date of this ordinance the Permittee shall deliver to the Director for filing with the City Clerk a good and sufficient bond in the sum of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) for each skybridge executed by a surety company authorized and qualified to do business in the State of Washington conditioned that the Permittee will comply with each and every provision of this ordinance and with each and every order of the Director pursuant thereto; provided, that if the Mayor of the City in his/her judgment shall deem any bond or bonds filed to be insufficient and demand a new or additional bond, the Permittee shall furnish a new or additional bond in such amount as the Director may specify to be necessary to fully protect the City. Said bond shall remain in effect until such time as the skybridges are entirely removed as described in Section 3, or until discharged by order of the Director as provided in Section 8 of this ordinance. Section 14. Transfers. Permittee shall not assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge or encumber any privileges conferred by this ordinance without the consent of the City Council by resolution, except that after the Grant described in Section 5 above has been granted to the City, SAM may grant a security interest to Allied Irish Banks, p.l.c., New York Branch pursuant to that springing deed of trust dated as of October 6, 2005. If consent is granted, the assignee or transferee shall be bound by all terms and conditions of this ordinance. The Permit conferred by this ordinance shall not be assignable or transferable by operation of law. Section 15. Inspections/Payments. The Permittee shall pay to the City such amounts as may be justly chargeable by said City as costs of inspection of the subject skybridges during construction, reconstruction, or repair, and at other times deemed necessary by the Director. In recognition of the public benefits of the OSP, including the Grant, no annual fee is charged for this Permit. All payments shall be made to the City Director of Executive Administration or his successor as custodian of the City Treasury for credit to the Seattle Department of Transportation subfund for Street Use. No inspection or approval by the City shall be construed as a representation, warranty or assurance to the Permittee or any other person as to the safety or soundness of any structure or condition, nor as to compliance with the Permit or any agreement or standard. Any failure by the City to require correction of any defect or condition shall not in any way limit the responsibility or liability of the Permittee. Section 16. Acceptance. The Permittee shall deliver its written acceptance of the Permit conferred by this ordinance and the Permittee's agreement to its terms and conditions, and the Grant required in Section 5 above, to the Director within thirty (30) days after the effective date of this ordinance. The Director shall record the Grant with the King County Recorder's Office and file the recorded Grant and the Permittee's acceptance with the City Clerk. If the Grant and acceptance are not timely received, the privileges provided by this ordinance shall be deemed declined or abandoned; and the Permit deemed lapsed and forfeited. Section 17. Effective Date. This ordinance shall take effect and be in force thirty (30) days from and after its approval by the Mayor, but if not approved and returned by the Mayor within ten (10) days after presentation, it shall take effect as provided by Municipal Code Section 1.04.020.

GRANT OF ACCESS AND MAINTENANCE RIGHTS THIS GRANT OF ACCESS AND MAINTENANCE RIGHTS ("Grant") is made effective as of the ________ day of ___________, 2005 by the SEATTLE ART MUSEUM, a Washington nonprofit corporation ("SAM") and the MUSEUM DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OF SEATTLE, a public corporation chartered by the City of Seattle ("MDA") (collectively, SAM and MDA are "Grantor") to the CITY OF SEATTLE, a Washington municipal corporation ("City"). RECITALS A. SAM is the owner of two parcels of real property legally described on Exhibit 1, attached hereto and incorporated herein (referred to as "Parcel A" and "Parcel B" or collectively as "SAM Property"). For general reference only, those parcels are indicated with corresponding letters on Exhibit 2, attached hereto and incorporated herein. B. MDA is the owner of the real property legally described on Exhibit 3, attached hereto and incorporated herein ("Parcel D" or "MDA Property"). For general reference only, that parcel is indicated with the letter D on Exhibit 2. MDA acquired the MDA Property from the City subject to use and development restrictions, including the requirement that the MDA Property be used and developed only as a sculpture garden, park or other open space as part of the SAM Olympic Sculpture Park ("OSP"), with public access free of charge in perpetuity. MDA also is lessee of the SAM Property under a lease from SAM for the purpose of conducting certain environmental work, subject to a sublease and operating agreement back to SAM. C. SAM is developing the OSP on the SAM Property and, pursuant to a ground lease from MDA, the MDA Property. D. The OSP design will provide a public connection from Belltown to Elliott Bay via pedestrian pathways (at grade and above grade) and skybridges over public rights of way, as generally indicated on Exhibit 2. E. Pursuant to Ordinance _______ (the "Permit," which term shall include any modification thereof or replacement therefor), the City has granted to SAM a permit to construct, operate and maintain two skybridge structures over public rights of way in conjunction with the OSP: one over and across a portion of Elliott Avenue between Bay Street and Broad Street ("Elliott Avenue Bridge") and one over and across a portion of Alaskan Way between Bay Street and Broad Street, including the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway franchise area, and including the ramp, stairs and abutment where the skybridge structure connects with the Boulevard ("Alaskan Way Bridge"). They are collectively referred to as the "Skybridges." Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Permit unless the context otherwise requires. F. The City's grant of the Permit is subject to certain terms and conditions, including, without limitation, the grant of the rights set forth in this Grant. GRANT OF RIGHTS AND COVENANTS For valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, SAM and MDA grant and agree as follows: 1. Grant and Purpose. A. Public Access Rights. SAM hereby grants and conveys to the City with respect to the Skybridges and Parcels A and B, rights to public access limited to pedestrian and wheelchair travel (for purposes of this Grant, "wheelchair" shall include any device for mobility of persons with disabilities that is allowed from time to time on public sidewalks in the City of Seattle) on, across and over the Skybridges and the pathways and elevated structures located and to be located on Parcels A and B, throughout the entire "Vee" shown by hatch marks on Exhibit 2. Such rights are referred to as the "Public Access Rights." SAM may locate and relocate from time to time obstructions to pedestrian or wheelchair travel or both (for example, artwork, planters, and other amenities or items related to the OSP) in the Vee but shall always provide an unobstructed and improved pathway suitable for pedestrian and wheelchair travel at least eleven (11) feet in width, measured perpendicular to the centerline of the path of travel, at all points from Western Avenue to the western touch-downs of the Alaskan Way Bridge in the Park Boulevard. The portions of the "Vee" that are not at a given time obstructed to both pedestrian and wheelchair travel as allowed by the preceding sentence are referred to as the "Public Access Area." The Public Access Area must always extend continuously from Western Avenue to the western touch-downs of the Alaskan Way Bridge in the Park Boulevard. The public shall have free, open and continuous pedestrian and wheelchair access to and through the Public Access Area free of charge every day of the year, except that so long as the SAM Property is operated by SAM as the OSP, SAM may close the Public Access Area for up to five calendar days per calendar year when the OSP is closed to the public consistent with the terms of an Operation and Maintenance Agreement between SAM and the City. Except on days when SAM has closed the Public Access Area to the public pursuant to the preceding sentence, the public shall have access to the entire Public Access Area at least during the period beginning at 9:00 AM and ending at 5:00 PM local time seven days a week and during all additional hours as the OSP is open to the public, but at all times subject to compliance with rules of conduct pursuant to paragraph 4 below, and subject to the right of the City to close the Skybridges or any part of the Public Access Area, or to impose further restrictions on use and access from time to time, consistent with the following sentence. So long as the SAM Property is operated by SAM as the OSP, the City shall not close a Skybridge for which a Permit remains in effect, or that the City owns and has not elected to remove, nor restrict access to and from the OSP over such a Skybridge or the Public Access Area during the period from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM each day and during all additional hours as the OSP is open to the public, without the consent of SAM, except as the City may deem necessary temporarily for reasons of public safety. In addition, City employees in the performance of their official duties related to public safety shall be entitled to use the Public Access Area at all times. SAM reserves the right to undertake measures to prevent public access onto SAM's property outside of the Public Access Area. B. Structure and Pathway Maintenance Rights. The provisions of this Subsection 1B for inspection and monitoring, and for emergencies, shall apply to each Parcel of the SAM Property so long as the Public Access Rights remain in effect as to any portion of that Parcel. Except with respect to inspection, monitoring and emergencies, this Subsection 1B shall apply only in each of the following circumstances: (1) If the City is entitled to and elects to assume ownership and operation of one or both Skybridges under Section 4 of the Permit, then for so long as a Skybridge remains in place and is owned by the City, this Subsection 1B shall apply to the Parcel or Parcels of the SAM Property for which SAM has no obligation to maintain the Public Access Area pursuant to Section 5, and, if the portion of the Public Access Area on Parcel B shall be replaced by the 7-foot wide path described in Subsection 5C of this Grant, then this Subsection 1B shall also apply to the MDA Property during the City's ownership of the Alaskan Way Bridge. (2) If SAM shall fail to comply in a timely manner with its obligation to maintain any portion of the Public Access Area located on a Parcel of the SAM Property, then if and when the City shall have the right under the terms of Section 3 of this Grant to take such actions as the City deems necessary to maintain, repair, reconstruct, or alter the Public Access Area, this Subsection 1B shall apply to such Parcel for the period, and to the extent, that the City requires access thereto in order to exercise its rights under Section 3. SAM hereby grants and conveys to the City the non-exclusive rights to access on, across, over, under and through such portions of the SAM Property as are reasonably necessary, for all purposes necessary, incidental, or related to construction, operation, repair, replacement, alteration, inspection, monitoring, and maintenance of the elevated and grade level pathways (including the entire area shown on Exhibit 2 as the "Vee," less the Skybridges) that connect the Alaskan Way Bridge and the Elliott Avenue Bridge, and that connect the Elliott Avenue Bridge with Western Avenue ("Structure and Pathway Maintenance Rights"). If a "fixed specific Public Access Area" is designated under Subsection 5B, then thereafter the Structure and Pathway Maintenance Rights shall be only for purposes necessary, incidental, or related to construction, operation, repair, replacement, alteration, inspection, monitoring, and maintenance of that fixed and specific Public Access Area. The City shall not modify the design or location of the pathways without SAM's consent. Air rights, and the right to maintain, repair and replace all necessary supports, foundations and structural elements supporting the elevated pathway are expressly included in the foregoing grant. Such grant also includes the right of the City to install measures to prevent use or access during any times when public access is not permitted. The City, its contractors, agents, officers and employees, after 24 hours advance notice to SAM for inspection and thirty (30) days advance notice to SAM for other activities (except that for inspections or other activities notice shall not be required in the event of emergency), which notice period may run concurrently with the period of any applicable notice of default and opportunity for cure and appeal period provided in Section 3 of this Grant, shall have free, open and continuous access on, across, over, under and through such portions of the SAM Property as are reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, which shall include the right to operate any necessary motorized and non-motorized equipment and vehicles for such purposes. The City shall cause any portion of the SAM Property that is disturbed by activities of the City, its contractors, agents, officers and employees pursuant to the previous sentence to be restored as nearly as practicable to its condition prior to such activities, but shall not be liable for loss or damage to fixtures or installations that could not reasonably be avoided, despite reasonable efforts by the City to avoid damage, consistent with accomplishment of the purposes for which the City exercised its rights thereunder without undue delay or cost. SAM shall ensure that neither it nor its contractors impair the rights granted in this Subsection 1B in any way. C. Skybridge Maintenance Rights. The provisions of this Subsection 1C for inspection and monitoring, and for emergencies, shall apply to each Skybridge and to each Parcel of the SAM Property so long as there is a Skybridge abutting that Parcel. Except with respect to inspection, monitoring and emergencies, this Subsection 1C shall apply only in each of the following circumstances: (1) If the City is entitled to and elects to assume ownership and operation of one or both Skybridges under Section 4 of the Permit, then for so long as a Skybridge remains in place and is owned by the City, this Subsection 1C shall apply to the Parcel or Parcels of the SAM Property abutting a City-owned Skybridge and, if the City owns the Alaskan Way Bridge, then this Subsection 1C shall also apply to the MDA Property during the City's ownership of the Alaskan Way Bridge. (2) If SAM shall fail to comply in a timely manner with its obligation to maintain any portion of a Skybridge abutting a Parcel of the SAM Property , then if and when the City shall have the right under the terms of Section 3 of this Grant to take such actions as the City deems necessary to maintain, repair, reconstruct or alter the Skybridge, this Subsection 1C shall apply to such Parcel for the period, and to the extent, that the City requires access thereto in order to exercise its rights under Section 3. (3) If the City is entitled to replace or remove a Skybridge, then this Subsection 1C shall apply to the SAM Property and MDA Property to the extent that the City requires access thereto in order to do so. SAM hereby grants and conveys to the City with respect to each Skybridge and to Parcels A and B, rights on, across, over, under and through such portions of the Skybridges and Parcels A and B as are reasonably necessary, for access to the Skybridges and for construction, operation, repair, replacement, alteration, inspection, monitoring, maintenance, and removal of the Skybridges ("Skybridge Maintenance Rights"). Air rights, and the right to maintain, repair and replace all necessary supports, foundations and structural elements supporting the Skybridges are expressly included in the foregoing grant. The Skybridges are depicted on Exhibit 2 attached hereto. The City, its contractors, agents, officers and employees, after 24 hours advance notice to SAM for inspection and thirty (30) days advance notice to SAM for other activities (except that for inspections or other activities notice shall not be required in the event of emergency), which notice period may run concurrently with the period of any notice of default and opportunity for cure and appeal period provided in Section 3 of this Grant, shall have free, open and continuous access on, across, over, under and through such portions of the Skybridges and the SAM Property as are reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, which shall include the right to operate any necessary motorized and non-motorized equipment and vehicles for such purposes. The City shall cause any portion of the SAM Property that is disturbed by activities of the City, its contractors, agents, officers and employees pursuant to the previous sentence to be restored as nearly as practicable to its condition prior to such activities, but shall not be liable for loss or damage to fixtures or installations that could not reasonably be avoided, despite reasonable efforts by the City to avoid damage, consistent with accomplishment of the purposes for which the City exercised its rights thereunder without undue delay or cost. SAM shall ensure that neither it nor its contractors impair the rights granted in this Subsection 1C in any way. D. MDA Joinder; Grant of Rights in Broad Street Access To the extent of any interest the MDA may have as lessee or otherwise in Parcel A or B, the MDA joins in the grants and conveyances in this Grant. To the extent that the Public Access Area shall hereafter include a portion of MDA Property pursuant to Subsection 5C, SAM and the MDA hereby grant the City over the portions of Parcels B and D that become part of the Public Access Area, and the MDA hereby grants the City over Parcel D, all the rights described in this Grant, as though those portions of Parcels B and D had been included in Subsections 1A, 1B, and 1C. 2. Rights and Remedies. The City shall have the right without prior institution of any suit or proceeding of law, at such times as may be necessary, to exercise the rights at such times and to the extent provided in this Grant. In addition, the City shall have all remedies that may be available at law or in equity. This instrument is not intended to confer any right of action or remedies on any member of the general public or any other person that is not a party hereto. The rights granted to the City are not obligations of the City and may be exercised at the City's discretion. The City shall not be liable or responsible for any injury, loss or damage caused by members of the public in the exercise of the rights of access granted hereunder, except to the extent, if any, that such injury, loss or damage is caused by the negligence of the City for which it has liability under applicable law, not including any City negligence in regard to any condition that SAM or MDA shall have caused or permitted contrary to the terms of this Grant, the Permit or any agreement with the City. The City shall not be subject to any obligation pursuant to any security instrument or other agreement executed by SAM or MDA with respect to any part of the SAM Property. The rights of the City and obligations of the Grantor herein are in addition to, and not in substitution for, the rights and obligations under the Permit or any other agreement. 3. Grantor to Construct and Maintain. Grantor, at its sole expense, shall construct the pathways in the "Vee" as shown in Exhibit 2, consistent with plans approved by the City and in full compliance with all applicable laws, codes and regulations as they apply to public facilities, including without limitation standards under the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA"). For so long as the Permit is in effect, Grantor, at its sole expense, shall maintain the Skybridges and the Public Access Area in safe, clean, and sanitary condition; shall promptly make any necessary repairs; shall not allow obstructions or debris to remain in the Public Access Area; and shall not cause or permit any structure or condition adjacent to the Public Access Area that could be hazardous to persons using the Public Access Area. If Grantor shall default in its obligations under this paragraph, the City shall have the right, but not the obligation, after at least thirty (30) days' notice to SAM and SAM's failure to cure such default or to commence cure (except that notice and opportunity to cure shall not be required in case of emergency), or after SAM's failure diligently to prosecute cure of default after commencing cure, to take such actions as the City deems necessary to maintain, repair, reconstruct, or alter the Skybridges or Public Access Area, all at the expense of the Grantor, and Grantor shall reimburse the City promptly on demand for the costs of such actions. So long as SAM is the Permittee under the Permit, SAM may contest the City's notice of default under this Section 3 or contest the City's decision that SAM has not diligently prosecuted cure of default by appealing in writing, within 10 days after notice of default or within 5 business days after being informed of the City's decision that SAM has failed diligently to prosecute cure, to the Superintendent of Parks and Recreation and to the Mayor, and the notice shall be withdrawn or more time allowed for cure, as applicable, if either of those officers so determines. Upon request by SAM, the Superintendent of Parks and Recreation shall provide an opportunity for the Executive Director of SAM to meet by phone or in person with the Superintendent to attempt to resolve any disagreement as to notices or decisions appealable under this Section 3. The City shall cause any portion of the SAM Property that is disturbed by activities of the City, its contractors, agents, officers and employees pursuant to the previous sentence to be restored as nearly as practicable to its condition prior to such activities, but shall not be liable for loss or damage to fixtures or installations that could not reasonably be avoided, despite reasonable efforts by the City to avoid damage, consistent with accomplishment of the purposes for which the City exercised its rights thereunder without undue delay or cost. SAM shall ensure that neither it nor its contractors impair the rights granted in this Section 3 in any way. 4. Rules of Conduct. A. Grantor shall adopt and enforce reasonable rules of conduct in the Public Access Area for the safety and convenience of pedestrian and wheelchair travel through the Public Access Area. Such rules shall be consistent with applicable law. To the extent that such rules are the same as rules applicable in City of Seattle parks, Grantor may adopt them without City approval, but shall provide written notice to the City before they take effect. (1) So long as SAM owns Parcels A and B of the SAM Property and operates those Parcels as the OSP, SAM (but not SAM's successors or assigns) may adopt additional rules without City approval, but shall provide written notice to the City before they take effect. (2) If SAM no longer owns Parcels A and B of the SAM Property or no longer operates those Parcels as the OSP, Grantor may adopt additional rules only with the advance written consent of the City. Grantor shall have the right to require any person who does not comply with rules that are in effect in accordance with this Section 4 to leave the Public Access Area. B. If the obligation of the Grantor to maintain and control any portion of the Public Access Area shall terminate under Section 5 below, then for so long as the right of public access hereunder continues as to such portion, the City shall have the sole right to make, modify, and enforce rules and regulations for the portion of the Public Access Area that is serving the Skybridge(s) owned by the City, provided that so long as the parcel adjacent to such portion remains in use by SAM as the OSP, the City shall provide SAM with thirty (30) days notice and opportunity to comment on changes in rules and regulations, and shall not adopt changes that would materially impair the use by pedestrians for access to the OSP during hours when the OSP is open to the general public, or for access to allowed special events sponsored by SAM. C. The parties acknowledge that the Public Access Area is not being dedicated as a public street or sidewalk, and that the nature of the OSP and limited purpose of the Public Access Rights are such that various activities traditionally permitted in public streets and sidewalks would not be appropriate for the Public Access Area. Compliance with rules that are in effect in accordance with this Section 4 is a condition of the right of any person to use the Public Access Area, except City employees and agents in the performance of their activities related to public safety. 5. Duration; Termination in Whole or in Part on Certain Events; City Ownership of Skybridges. A. The Public Access Rights, the Structure and Pathway Maintenance Rights, and the Skybridge Maintenance Rights, and the covenants and servitudes contained in this Grant, shall inure to the benefit of the City, shall be binding upon SAM and MDA and each of their successors, transferees and assigns, including, without limitation, tenants, and shall run with the land described in Exhibits 1 and 3, but the benefit thereof shall not run with any land owned by the City. All such rights, covenants and servitudes shall extend for so long as SAM or any successor in interest or assignee shall hold the Permit to maintain one or both of the Skybridges, and, except to the extent otherwise provided below, shall also remain in effect: (1) if SAM, or its successor in interest or assignee as holder of the Permit, shall not seek renewal of the Permit for an additional term, or if the Permit shall be terminated as to one or both Skybridges based on the City's determination that there has been default by the Permittee under the Permit, then in each case for so long as the Skybridges, or either of them, remain in place, but not to exceed fifty (50) years from the effective date of the original Permit plus the time until both Skybridges are removed by the Permittee as required by the terms of the Permit ; or (2) if the Permit shall be renewed and shall then terminate after 50 years, at the expiration of its renewal term, then for so long thereafter as one or both Skybridges remains in place pending City action on an application for a new permit or pending removal of both Skybridges by the Permittee as required by the terms of the Permit. If the City issues a new permit after the Permit terminates after 50 years, at the expiration of its renewal term, then public access rights, if any, shall be according to the terms of that new permit. Consistent with the foregoing, this Grant shall terminate automatically if the City (a) denies SAM's application to renew the Permit after the initial 25-year term or (b) terminates the Permit for both Skybridges under Subsection 3(a) of the Permit for another transportation use. B. If the Permit shall be terminated or expire as to either or both Skybridges, and the City shall elect to assume full ownership and control of one or both Skybridge(s) pursuant to the terms of the Permit, then upon the City's acceptance of a quitclaim deed for the Skybridge structure from the Grantor, (i) all obligations of Grantor with respect to the maintenance and operation of such Skybridge(s) hereunder shall terminate, (ii) at either the City's or SAM's option, all obligations of the Grantor to maintain, control and repair the part of the Public Access Area on any Parcel adjacent to a Skybridge so accepted by the City, shall terminate, (iii) if either the City or SAM does elect to terminate the Grantor's obligations to maintain, control and repair part or all of the Public Access Area pursuant to (ii) above, then Grantor will within 60 days after notice of that election designate in writing a fixed and specific Public Access Area across the affected Parcel or Parcels of SAM Property, within the Vee, satisfactory to the Director that will be an unobstructed and improved pathway suitable for pedestrian and wheelchair travel at least eleven (11) feet in width, measured perpendicular to the centerline of the path of travel, at all points on the affected Parcel or Parcels of SAM Property from Western Avenue to the western touch-downs of the Alaskan Way Bridge in the Park, and that designated Public Access Area will thereafter be subject to all the Public Access Rights; but if Grantor fails timely to make such a designation the City may do so with like effect, and (iv) SAM (but not any successors or assigns) shall be entitled to the non-exclusive use of the City-owned Skybridge(s) and the Public Access Area for temporary access to move sculptures and artwork between Parcel A and Parcel B so long as such activity leaves accessible for public access a minimum 11-foot wide travel area. However, nothing herein shall relieve the Grantor of the obligation to remove such Skybridge(s) at the end of the period of City ownership pursuant to the Permit. Further, if at the end of the period of the City's ownership of one or both Skybridge(s) Grantor shall obtain a new permit to maintain one or both such Skybridge(s), then for so long as such permit remains in effect the Grantor shall have the same obligations as were in effect prior to the City's ownership of such Skybridge(s). For so long as the City has ownership of one or both Skybridges, the rights of the City to maintain and repair the Skybridges and such portions of the Public Access Area, and the public's access thereto, shall remain in full force and effect to the extent provided under the terms of this Grant, except that if the Elliott Avenue Bridge shall have been removed, other than for reconstruction thereof, then such City rights shall not continue with respect to the portion of the SAM Property East of Elliott Avenue. For so long as the Grantor shall not have the obligation to maintain a portion of the Public Access Area, the City shall have the right to install in such portion any directional signage that the City deems appropriate for the convenience of the public using the same, with thirty (30) days advance notice to SAM. C. Not later than the sooner of the day the OSP opens to the public or 450 days after the acceptance of the Permit, Grantor shall construct and shall thereafter maintain open for free public passage a pedestrian and wheelchair access to the east end of the Alaskan Way Bridge from Broad Street (the "Broad Street Access"), on a route no less than seven (7) feet wide in the location shown on Exhibit 4, and in accordance with the City-approved design. If the Elliott Avenue Bridge shall be removed and either a permit then remains in effect for the Alaskan Way Bridge or the City is entitled to and elects to assume ownership of the Alaskan Way Bridge pursuant to the Permit, then Grantor shall ensure that the Broad Street Access meets all then applicable access and other legal requirements and the Broad Street Access shall become part of the Public Access Area, and shall be subject to all Public Access Rights, replacing the portion of the Vee located on Parcel B that is not part of the Broad Street Access. Upon the Grantor's failure to perform construction or other work necessary to provide the Broad Street Access in compliance with the terms of this Subsection 5C in a timely manner, the City shall have the right, but not the obligation, to construct or perform other necessary work on the Broad Street Access at the expense of the Grantor, in the location shown on Exhibit 4; if the City does so, the Broad Street Access shall become part of the Public Access Area and be subject to all Public Access Rights only under the same circumstances as it would if Grantor had performed the construction or other work. D. If both Skybridges shall be removed as required or permitted in accordance with the terms of the Permit, other than for reconstruction thereof, then this Grant shall terminate. If only the Elliott Avenue Bridge shall be removed, other than for reconstruction thereof, then the Grant shall terminate with respect to the portion of the SAM Property located east of Elliott Avenue and, conditioned upon provision of the Broad Street Access if required under Subsection 5C above, the Grant shall also then terminate as to the portion of the Vee located on Parcel B that is not part of the Broad Street Access. 6. Modification or Release. The terms herein may be modified by a written instrument signed by an authorized officer of the City and by SAM and MDA, or their respective successors and assigns, and not otherwise, provided that if the interests of either SAM or MDA, or its respective successors or assigns, are not affected, then the signature of such party shall not be required. The City shall have the right to release in whole or in part the rights granted herein by recording an instrument executed by an authorized officer of the City. 7. Representations and Warranties of Grantor. SAM represents and warrants that it holds fee simple title to the SAM Property, and holds a subleasehold interest therein from the MDA pursuant to the sublease dated October 1, 2002, which is in full force and effect, in each case subject to no liens, encumbrances, defects, leases, options or other interests except as expressly set forth in Exhibit C to the Permit ("Permitted Encumbrances"), and that the rights granted hereunder are not and shall not be subject to any lien, encumbrance, defect, lease, option or other interest except for the Permitted Encumbrances. MDA represents and warrants that it holds fee simple title to the MDA Property, subject only to a ground lease to SAM, to the reversionary rights of the City, and to Permitted Encumbrances (to the extent applicable), and that MDA holds a leasehold interest in the SAM Property under a lease dated October 1, 2002, from SAM, which is in full force and effect, and such leasehold interest is subject to no liens, encumbrances, defects, leases, options or other interests except the Permitted Encumbrances and the interests of SAM. 8. Limited Purpose of Execution by MDA. Any other provision herein notwithstanding: The MDA does not claim or warrant any title or interest in the SAM Property except to the extent of the leasehold interest described herein. MDA is executing this instrument solely in order to ensure that (a) this Grant encumbers such leasehold and any other interest that the MDA may have now or hereafter in the SAM Property; and (b) in the limited circumstances set forth in Subsection 5.C above, alternate access shall be provided from Broad Street to the Alaskan Way Bridge. So long as the MDA has no right to possession of the SAM Property, all obligations of "Grantor" for any performance hereunder shall be the sole obligations of SAM, and its successors in interest (not including MDA as such lessee), except that if at any time the Broad Street Access is required pursuant to Subsection 5C and if SAM shall not then be the ground lessee of the MDA Property, any obligations of "Grantor" with respect to the MDA Property then shall be those of the MDA.
