ATMOS energy The City of Paris, Texas P.O. Box 9037 Paris, Texas 75461-9037 January 16, 2006 Re: Reciprocal Agreement on Damage to Distribution Facilities The City of Paris, Texas (Cityrrown) and Atmos Energy Corporation, Mid-Tex Division (Mid-Tex) both operate facilities within the public rights-of-way of Cityrrown. On occasion, our respective employees damage those facilities during excavation activity. In order to avoid future misunderstandings concerning the responsibility for the cost of repairing facilities damaged during excavation activities, Cityrrown and Mid-Tex are entering into this reciprocal agreement concerning property damage claims. If Mid-Tex employees damage the facilities owned by Cityrrown within the public rights-of-way of Cityrrown, Cityrrown agrees to repair the damage to its facilities at no cost to Mid-Tex. Mid-Tex agrees to notify the appropriate official of City/Town as soon as reasonably possible after the occurrence of such damage. If Cityrrown employees damage the distribution facilities owned by Mid-Tex within the public rights- of-way of Cityrrown, Mid-Tex agrees to repair the damage to its facilities at no cost to Cityrrown. Cityrrown agrees to notify the appropriate personnel of Mid-Tex as soon as reasonably possible after the occurrence of such damage. This reciprocal agreement will remain in full force and effect until one party gives written notice to the other party of termination at least 30 days prior to the proposed termination date. Any such termination will not affect either party's obligation to pay for any damage that occurs prior to the termination date. If this reciprocal agreement is acceptable to Cityrrown, please have both copies of this letter executed by the appropriate Cityrrown official and retum one fully executed copy to me. AGREED TO AND ACCEPTED THIS 13th DAY OF February ,2006 The City of Paris, Texas By: Title: City Manager Printed Name: Tony N. Williams EXHIBIT A
