action, damages, demands, liabilities, costs (including, but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees), claims, losses

accident or casualty caused or claimed to be caused by the discontinuance of water service to the Property for any
reason set forth in CVWD’s Regulations, including, but not limited to, failure to make payment when due, including
any Costs arising from or in connection with the loss of the use of the fire sprinkler system on the Property during

proceeding concerning this section. Customer hereby waives all claims and demands against CVWD for any such
Costs.
