                   4.  Any member or members of the Watermaster shall maintain the first right of refusal
                       to purchase the supplemental water placed in storage by the San Gorgonio Pass
                       Water Agency.  All Watermaster members shall be notified in writing a minimum
                       of 60 calendar days prior to any sale, transfer, distribution, or exchange of any
                       supplemental water in the storage account of the San Gorgonio Pass  Water
                       Agency.  The Watermaster maintains an opportunity to individually or collectively
                       purchase the water in  the storage account of the San Gorgonio Pass  Water
                       Agency under the same terms and conditions offered to a  member of the
                       Watermaster, non-member of the Watermaster, or any other entity.

                   5.  Any future condition, issue, or operational constraint that conflicts with the ability
                       of any Watermaster member to administer and fulfill their obligation(s) pursuant to
                       the  Stipulated Judgment shall be immediate cause  for rescinding the storage
                       agreement to the San Gorgonio Pass Water Agency.

               The language was shared with Jeff Davis, General Manager of the San Gorgonio Pass
               Water Agency and presented again for review and discussion at the December 7, 2016
               Watermaster meeting.

               In preparation for this meeting, a draft resolution has been prepared with a proposed
               modification to condition number five above.

               The  San Gorgonio Pass  Water Agency has requested  additional time  to review the
               conditions outlined above and modified in the attached resolution.

               If there are no  further issues or suggestions related to  this language, then the  final
               Groundwater Storage  Resolution should be scheduled  for consideration at a special
               meeting on the first Wednesday in March.
