The Railroad makes no covenant or warranty of title for quiet possession or against encumbrances. The Political Body shall not use or permit use of the Crossing Area for any purposes other than those described in this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Political Body shall not use or permit use of the Crossing Area for railroad purposes, or for gas, oil or gasoline pipe lines. Any lines constructed on the Railroad's property by or under authority of the Political Body for the purpose of conveying electric power or communications incidental to the Political Body's use of the property for highway purposes shall be constructed in accordance with specifications and requirements of the Railroad, and in such manner as not adversely to affect communication or signal lines of the Railroad or its licensees now or hereafter located upon said property. No nonparty shall be admitted by the Political Body to use or occupy any part of the Railroad's property without the Railroad's written consent. Nothing herein shall obligate the Railroad to give such consent. B. The Railroad reserves the right to cross the Crossing Area with such railroad tracks as may be required for its convenience or purposes. In the event the Railroad shall place additional tracks upon the Crossing Area, the Political Body shall, at its sole cost and expense, modify the Roadway to conform with all tracks within the Crossing Area. C. The right hereby granted is subject to any existing encumbrances and rights (whether public or private), recorded or unrecorded, and also to any renewals thereof. The Political Body shall not damage, destroy or interfere with the property or rights of nonparties in, upon or relating to the Railroad's property, unless the Political Body at its own expense settles with and obtains releases from such nonparties. D. The Railroad reserves the right to use and to grant to others the right to use the Crossing Area for any purpose not inconsistent with the right hereby granted, including, but not by way of limitation, the right to construct, reconstruct, maintain, operate, repair, alter, renew and replace tracks, facilities and appurtenances on the property; and the right to cross the Crossing Area with all kinds of equipment. E. So far as it lawfully may do so, the Political Body will assume, bear and pay all taxes and assessments of whatsoever nature or kind (whether general, local or special) levied or assessed upon or against the Crossing Area, excepting taxes levied upon and against the property as a component part of the Railroad's operating property.
