LICENSE AGREEMENT
This License Agreement is made and entered into as of this 11th day
of February , 2003, by and between the Village of Oak Brook, an Illinois municipal
corporation (,,Village" or ,Licensor,,) and the Oak Brook Club, Inc. a /k/a Oak Brook Club
Community Area Trust, a residential condominium development and an Illinois not for profit
corporation (,,Club,, or ,,Licenseel. The following recitals of fact are a material part of
this License Agreement:
A. The Village owns and maintains a certain road and right of way in the Village
commonly referred to as Spring Road; said Spring Road runs north and
south on the east side of the Village.
B. The Village and the Club share a common property line along the west right
of way line of Spring Road, beginning at a point approximately 310 linear feet
north of the intersection of Spring Road and 16th Street and thence
continuing northerly for approximately 837 feet (the ,Common Property
Line,,).
C. The Club, a gated residential condominium development has been
surrounded by a fence since its inception in the early 1970's and the Club
has maintained a certain wood stockade fence approximately six (6) feet
high, a certain portion of which is along the Common Property Line.
D. Approximately 210 feet of the existing fence encroaches on the right of way
of Spring Road, with said encroachment not exceeding 12.65 feet at its
widest point and, for the most part, encroaching to a much lesser distance
as depicted on aplat of survey of The Oak Brook Club property by Gremley
& Biedermann, dated August 1, 2002, attached hereto and made a part
hereof as Exhibit A.
E. In order to preserve existing mature trees, bushes and landscaping which
would be destroyed by moving the fence to a point entirely within the
property line of the Club, the Club requests a License from the Village to
permit a fence in the right of way of Spring Road, to be installed and
maintained by the Club.
NOW, THEREFORE, FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION of Ten Dollars ($10.00) in
hand paid and other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, the following grants, licenses, covenants and restrictions are
made by the Licensor to the Licensee:

successors and assigns an exclusive right to replace, construct, install and
maintain a fence in the right of way of Spring Road upon the terms and
conditions and for the purposes set forth herein.
2. License Purpose. The license herein granted to the Licensee shall be an
exclusive license to replace, construct, install and maintain a fence in
substantially the same location as the fence is depicted on Exhibit A
attached hereto and made a part hereof, and to maintain in an appropriate
and customary manner the portion of the right of way on the west side of the
fence. The Licensee shall maintain the fence in a safe condition at all times
the License Agreement is in effect.
3. Restoration by Licensee. After the performance of any work on the fence
and in the right of way, by, or on behalf of the Licensee, the Licensee at the

harmless the Licensor, its officers, employees, and agents from any loss,

subject of this License Agreement.
5b. The Licensee shall indemnify the Licensor for all costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by the Licensor in any legal
proceeding or action, whether at law or in equity instituted for the purpose of
enforcing any provision of this License Agreement.
6. Construction of Grant of License The rule of strict construction does not
