For the purpose of conforming to the requirements of Section 503.2.1.UBC,Grantor grants to Grantee an easement for open space on the above described easement area such that nothing shall be constructed or installed on the easement area and Grantee shall have the power to remove anything that is hereafter installed or constructed on the easement area,at Grantor's expense;and further, with respect to an existing building that is now encroaching on said easement area, no doors or windows or other openings shall be made or constructed in the encroaching parts of the said encroaching building, and Grantee shall have the power to construct closures of any such windows, doors or other openings at Grantee's expense;but Grantor shall have the right to take measures such as painting,caulking and repairs to preserve the said encroachment if such measures do not expand that encroachment. 4. NONEXCLUSIVE EASEMENT. The easement rights granted by this instrument to Grantee are nonexclusive.
