This easement and the conditions thereof shall be a covenant running with the land and shall be
binding on the successors, heirs and assigns of the owners of the land. The Grantee, its successors

proceeding of law, at any time as may be deemed necessary by the Grantee, to enter upon said
easement for the purpose of protecting and preserving the NGPE Area.
Nothing in this easement shall obligate the City of Edmonds to perform any activity or to utilize the
