PLAN AND PROFILE DRAWINGS (continued)
•
CNP will keep the original approved drawings on file and furnish one(1)copy to the Customer. If
the Customer requests additional copies,CNP will arrange to supply copies or reproducible mylars
at the Customer's expense.
If the actual installation differs from the proposed routing on the drawings,then the Customer shall
provide CNP with one(1)set of bluelines,marked in red pencil,to indicate AS BUILT corrections.
DUCTBANK INSTALLATION
All proposed conduit for CNP's use is to be installed in straight runs,unless otherwise indicated on
CNP drawings. Any conduit bends must be installed with a twenty foot (20') minimum radius,
unless indicated otherwise on CNP drawings. Conduit turn-ups into any equipment pad and/or pole
pedestal must have a minimum five foot(5')radius. Any deviations from these requirements shall
have written approval from the MUG representative prior to installation.
During installation,the minimum depth for a conduit run must be referenced to the final grade.
The Customer is to delay installation of approximately the last twenty feet(20') of the conduit run
and the pole pedestal to any terminal pole until the pole has been set by CNP. Before trenching to
the base of any terminal pole, the Customer must securely brace the pole. The Customer must
request staking and setting of any terminal pole by contacting the MUG representative.
The Customer must provide a jet line in each conduit installed. This jet line shall extend a minimum
of seven feet(7')beyond the end of each conduit.
For installations not utilizing a blanket easement document(see Easement Instrument section,page
7),the Customer shall also install a#14 American Wire Gage(AWG)or larger aluminum or copper
600 volt insulated conductor in one of the conduits. The conductor must be electrically continuous.
For manhole installations, the electrically continuous conductor must also be looped through each
manhole lid and tied to a concrete insert in the neck of each manhole. This conductor is to facilitate
•
surveying of the duct bank by CNP. The duct bank cannot be surveyed until this conductor is
installed as prescribed. The Customer must take adequate measures to assure the conductor will be
in place until all necessary surveying is completed. After surveying of the duct bank is completed,
but prior to CNP installing any primary cable,the Customer may retrieve its conductor at its option.
Conduit ends shall be plugged with a duct cap or other type capping device..The use of rags to plug
conduits is not acceptable. If the conduit is installed in stages,the Customer must keep each section
of conduit capped until the new section is installed. If,prior to CNP using any conduit,the conduit
is found to be blocked, the Customer will be responsible, at its expense, for removing the
obstruction.
CLEARANCES
Final approval for the location of the pad mount equipment and/or other proposed electrical
installation is contingent upon proper clearance,as determined by CNP,from cooling towers,vents,
buildings, structures, etc., and other underground utilities. It is in the Customer's and GNP's best
interest to have all service equipment in a contamination-free environment to avoid unscheduled
outages and/or premature equipment failures. Therefore, prior to any construction, the Customer
shall inform the MUG representative of any existing or future contamination or pollutants which
may affect the equipment so that necessary clearances can be secured.

CLEARANCES (continued)
The MUG representative shall be notified promptly if the Customer intends to install any
obstructions such as walls,hedges,bushes,trees,etc.,around the transformer and/or any associated
equipment so that additional clearances and access can be secured. Any proposed enclosure
surrounding CNP's equipment must be Iouvered,and both a profile and a cross-sectional view of
the proposed louvered enclosure shall be submitted for approval prior to installation.
If, in the future,there is a problem with contamination of CNP's equipment, or proper clearances
are not maintained, CNP reserves the right to relocate the equipment at the Customer's expense.
CNP will not allow other facilities to pass beneath its equipment pads. A one foot(11) minimum
horizontal clearance shall be maintained between CNP pads and all other facilities.
A one foot(1') minimum vertical clearance must be maintained between CNP duct banks and all
non-CNP facilities crossing the duct bank.
A five foot (5') minimum horizontal clearance must be maintained between CNP duct banks and
other facilities running parallel to the duct bank. CNP will not allow joint trenching between CNP
duct banks and other facilities.
ELEVATION REQUIREMENTS
The minimum elevation requirement for the top of the equipment pads shall be fifteen feet(15')
above mean sea level and two feet(2') above the documented 500-year floodplain. The Customer
must provide equipment pads that meet these elevation requirements. The easement (minimum
working clearance) around the equipment pads shall also be brought up to the above mentioned
minimum elevation, as outlined on the equipment pad detail specification. The easement area
surrounding the equipment pads shall not have a slope greater than 2%. The pad and minimum
easement elevations(minimum working clearance)must be verified at the time of installation.
VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
Any proposed barriers or enclosures in the vicinity of the equipment pads shall maintain a minimum
of 50% free air flow. Prior to construction, the Customer shall submit drawings of the proposed
barriers or enclosures to MUG Projects Representative for approval.
FINAL INSPECTION
After the Customer has advised CNP that all"Customer installed"facilities pertaining to this service
arrangement have been completed and inspected,a final on-site inspection will be made by a MUG
representative. This final inspection will verify that all Customer installed facilities are in
accordance with these Terms and Conditions. The Customer(or its contractor)and the Service Area
Consultant will be advised of any needed corrections and/or changes. When all necessary
corrections and/or changes have been completed,GNP's portion of the construction may begin.
EASEMENT INSTRUMENT
CNP will prepare an instrument for easements to be granted by the property owner after all
installations for CNP's use have been completed according to these Terms and Conditions. The
service cannot be energized until CNP has accepted the signed instrument for all easements.
REVISION NO. 1SPECIFICATION NO. SHEET 7 OF 14 SHEETS
Job# 90696796
EASEMENT INSTRUMENT (continued)
The Customer also has the option of signing a blanket easement document. Use of the blanket
easement allows the service to be energized before the final signed instrument for all easements has
been completed. The Customer may request use of the blanket easement document by contacting
the MUG representative.
CNP will need access to and from the proposed easements. CNP will use these easements,as shown
on the attached sketches, for the purposes of erecting, installing, operating,maintaining,replacing,
inspecting and removing electrical distribution facilities.The Customer shall keep these easements
free and clear of any obstructions(trees,shrubs,other structures,etc.)that may endanger or interfere
with the efficiency,safety,and proper operation of the proposed facilities for the life of the service.

ADDENDUM TO "TERMS AND CONDITIONS TO UNDERGROUND ELECTRIC
SERVICE"
This Addendum is dated as of the Effective Date (as defined below) and is between
CENTERPOINT HOUSTON ELECTRIC, LLC (the "Company") and City of Pearland
("Customer"). The Company and Customer are referred to in this Addendum individually as a
"Party" and collectively as the "Parties."
Customer is the owner and operator of Traffic Light at Intersection of Kirby and South
Spectrum, Kirby Drive @ S Spectrum Boulevard, Pearland, Texas, 77047 ("Property").
("Facilities") shall mean any facilities, equipment, cable, or other material referred to in the
Agreement installed and owned by the customer or his contractor at Kirby Drive @ S Spectrum
Boulevard, Pearland, Texas,77047 .
Contemporaneously with the execution of this Addendum, Customer and the Company
are entering into THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS TO UNDERGROUND ELECTRIC
SERVICE (the "Agreement") under which underground electric service will be provided to the
Facility. "Effective Date" means the date that the Agreement is signed, as indicated by the date
next to the customer signature on the cover sheet of the Agreement.
Because of certain laws and regulations applicable to Customer, the Parties desire to set
forth their understanding regarding those laws and regulations and the related allocation of
certain risks and liabilities between them.
The Parties therefore agree as follows:
1. Applicability. This Addendum is being executed in connection with and will be
deemed to be a part of the Agreement. No provision of the Agreement stating that the
Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to its subject matter or
other provision in the Agreement of the type typically referred to as a"merger clause"will apply
to this Addendum. To the extent that the terms and provisions of this Addendum conflict with
the terms and provisions of the Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Addendum control.
Notwithstanding the execution of this Addendum, the Agreement remains in full force and
effect, except as otherwise provided in this Addendum.
2. Customer as Governmental Entity. Customer represents and warrants that it is a
governmental entity, and that as a governmental entity it is subject to constitutional and statutory
limitations on its ability to be bound by certain terms and conditions of the Agreement, which
may include terms and conditions relating to: liens on government property; disclaimers and
limitations of warranties; disclaimers and limitations of liability for damages; waivers,
disclaimers, and limitations on legal rights, remedies, requirements, commitment of future
funding, and processes; limitations of time in which to bring legal action; control of litigation or
dispute resolution; indemnities; and confidentiality of information, and to the extent that any
provisions of the Agreement, including this Addendum, would violate any such restrictions, the
Customer will not be bound by such provisions. Any terms or provisions of this Addendum that
are less restrictive than those in the Agreement with respect to Customer's obligations will be
null and void and will have no force or effect if the representation and warranty that Customer is
a governmental entity is not true or to the extent that the more restrictive term in the Agreement
would be enforceable against Customer under Applicable Laws (as defined below). Terms and
conditions in the Agreement relating to limitations of the type described in this section will only
be binding on Customer to the extent they are valid and enforceable under all applicable laws,
including all state and federal laws, rules and regulations, the constitutions of the United States
and the State of Texas and the laws of the United States and the State of Texas ("Applicable
Laws").
3. Maintenance. Except to the extent expressly set forth in a written agreement
between the Parties, the Company will not be required to maintain equipment, cable, or other
material that is owned by Customer. Customer acknowledges that it is Customer's sole
responsibility to follow the proper administrative or internal procedures to cause its Facilities and
any related equipment to be properly maintained. Customer also acknowledges that Company
reserves the right, in accordance with Company Tariff, to discontinue service if Customer has
failed, or the Company has determined, in its sole discretion,that Customer has failed, to
maintain the Property and facilities or any related equipment, cable or other material in a manner
that causes or could cause a safety hazard to person or property.
4. Installation. Customer understands that all facilities, equipment, cable and other
material referred to in the Agreement must comply with all specifications set forth in said
Agreement and the Permanent Easement and/or Right to Pull before the Company installs any
equipment or provides electrical service. During the installation of any equipment to be installed
by the Company under the Agreement, the Company will use every effort to preserve
Customer's landscaping, parking areas, or other facilities. However, any cost that has been
quoted to Customer does not include any special replacements or repairs to these items. The
Company shall not be responsible for any expenses associated with replacements or repairs to
Customer's property, and Customer hereby waives any claims for such expenses that it has or
may have against the Company.
5. INDEMNIFICATION. This indemnity is pursuant to Company's Tariff located
on our website at www.centerpointenergy.com.
CUSTOMER ASSUMES THE RISK OF AND SHALL INDEMNIFY COMPANY AGAINST
DAMAGES FOR INJURIES OR DEATH TO PERSONS OR LOSS TO CUSTOMER'S
PROPERTY, OR TO THE PROPERTY OF COMPANY, WHEN OCCASIONED BY
ACTIVITIES OF CUSTOMER OR THIRD PARTIES ON CUSTOMER'S PREMISES,
RESULTING FROM THE INSTALLATION, EXISTENCE, REPLACEMENT, OR REPAIR
OF COMPANY'S UNDERGROUND FACILITIES, AND AS FURTHER PROVIDED IN THE
TERMS OF "LIMITS ON LIABILITY," SECTION 5.2 OF COMPANY'S
TARIFF. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OF THE ABOVE, THE PROVISIONS REQUIRING
A CUSTOMER TO INDEMNIFY, FULLY PROTECT, OR SAVE COMPANY HARMLESS
APPLY TO A GOVERNMENTAL ENTITY AS THIS TERM IS DEFINED IN CHAPTER
2251 OF THE TEXAS GOVERNMENT CODE, TO THE EXTENT OTHERWISE
CONSISTENT WITH LAW; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT ANY GOVERNMENTAL
ENTITY THAT IS RECEIVING SERVICES UNDER THE AGREEMENT MUST TAKE
NECESSARY STEPS TO ENSURE THAT THE INDEMNIFICATION REQUIREMENTS OF
THIS SECTION DO NOT CREATE A "DEBT" IN VIOLATION OF ARTICLE XI, SECTION
7 OF THE TEXAS CONSTITUTION. SUCH STEPS MAY INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT
NECESSARILY LIMITED TO, A THIRD-PARTY INDEMNIFICATION IN WHICH THE
CONTRACTOR PERFORMING THE WORK FOR THE GOVERNMENTAL ENTITY
INDEMNIFIES THE COMPANY OR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A SINKING FUND. SEE
BROWN V. JEFFERSON COUNTY, 406 S.W.2D 185 (TEX 1966).
6. Further Assurances. If at any time after the date of this Addendum any further
action is necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of this Addendum, Customer shall
use all commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, that action.
7. Assignment. Customer shall not assign any part of its rights or delegate any
performance under this Addendum, voluntarily or involuntarily, whether by merger,
consolidation, dissolution, operation of law, or any other manner, without the Company's prior
written consent. Any purported assignment of rights or delegation of performance in violation of
this Section 7 is void and of no effect.
8. Modification; Waiver. No amendment of this Addendum will be effective unless
it is in writing and signed by the Parties. No waiver of satisfaction of a condition or
nonperformance of an obligation under this Addendum will be effective unless it is in writing
and signed by the Party granting the waiver, and no such waiver will constitute a waiver of
satisfaction of any other condition or nonperformance of any other obligation. To be valid, any
document signed by a Party in accordance with this Section 8 must be signed by an officer or
other representative of that Party authorized to do so.
In addition, nothing in this Addendum or the Agreement shall be construed as a waiver or
relinquishment by the Company of any right that it has or may have hereafter to
discontinue service for or on account of default in the performance of Customer's
obligations under this Addendum or the Agreement, including payment of any bill owing
or to become owing thereafter, or for any other reason or cause stated in the Company's
Tariff.
