TO:HONORABLE CITY COUNCIL
FROM:CITY MANAGER/DEPARTMENT: PLANNING AND
COMMUNITY ENVIRONMENT
DATE:AUGUST 6, 2007 CMR: 340:07
SUBJECT:SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION REGARDING ACQUISITION AND
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF PALO
ALTO, EDEN HOUSING, INC. AND COMMLFNITY HOUSING
ALLIANCE, INC. FOR THE PROPOSED ALMA STREET AFFORDABLE
MULTI-FAMILY RENTAL HOUSING PROJECT.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the Alma Street Affordable Multi-Family
Rental Housing Project Acquisition and Development Agreement (ADA) between the City, Eden
Housing and the Community Housing Alliance (CHA) as amended. The agreement provides for
the conveyance of the Alma Substation parcel to Eden Housing and CHA, a City loan of $3
million for acquisition of the adjacent Ole’s Automotive Repair Shop parcel and general
parameters for future development of the combined site.
BACKGROUND
On July 30, 2007 the Council discussed the proposed Acquisition and Development Agreement
that allows the City of Palo Alto, Eden Housing and CHA to solidify their joint efforts to
develop affordable housing on the combined parcels of the Alma Substation property and Ole’s
parcel. The Council continued the item to August 6, 2007 and directed staff to provide
additiona! information regarding the agreement.
DISCUSSION
Staff has prepared this supplemental report to address the issues raised by the Council at the July
30 meeting. These include the term of affordability, closing costs, environmental indemnity
provisions and option to repurchase.
Term of Affordability
The Acquisition and Development Agreement has been modified slightly to address the issue of
preserving the affordability of the residential units beyond the initial fifty-five years stipulated in
the draft agreement and includes the language read into the record at the meeting on July 30.
The Agreement reflects that a variety of mechanisms including financing structures and the
City’s zoning process will provide for an extended term of affordability beyond the initial fifty-
five years.
CMR: 340:07 Page 1 of 4
Closing Costs
Escrow costs are normally nominal compared to the value of the property involved, and they are
particularly insignificant in this case because the City is exempt from paying the County transfer
tax as well as its own City transfer tax. As negotiated in the ADA, escrow costs would be paid
as customary in Santa Clara County with the seller paying the standard portion of the owner’s
policy and the escrow fee and the buyer paying the extended portion of the owner’s policy and
the recording fees. The only deviation made from this formula under the ADA was to agree to
split the escrow costs 50/50, thereby saving the City about $500. There was an error in the ADA
[Section 4.6.1(b)] where it was stated in one place that the City would pay all the escrow fees
and in another place it was stated that the fees would be split. The ADA has been corrected to
reflect only the 50/50 split.
Given the breakdown described above, it is estimated that the City will pay $4,674.50 in escrow
costs under the terms of the ADA. In addition, the City will also pay $534 for the City’s lender
policy on the loan made on Ole’s parcel with total escrow costs around $5,200.
Environmental Indemnity
The "environmental indemnity" provisions in the Acquisition and Development Agreement are
negotiated terms that are consistent with City assurances that it would convey the City parcel in a
developable condition. Based on Council concerns, staff has explored the possibility of
removing the environmental indemnity provisions from the agreement with the Developer. The
Developer has informed us that they are unwilling to proceed with the project absent these
provisions. However, the Developer has agreed to include language that clarifies the City’s
obligations under these provisions.
The environmental indemnity provisions have been modified to clarify that the City is not
responsible for cleanup costs arising from any contamination on the Ole’s parcel. This is
consistent with section 5.10(b) of the agreement, which requires the developer to indemnify the
City for any liability related to the Ole’s parcel. Section 5.10(b) whereby the Developer
indemnifies the City regarding Ole’s parcel is a mirror of Section 4.5.3(a) whereby the City
indemnifies the Developer regarding the City Site.
An additional provision has been added to the environmental indemnity section that ensures that
the City will not be responsible for the ordinary costs of excavation and disposal of soils or
materials from the City parcel to the extent that work is done as a part of the project construction.
Phase 1 and Phase 2 environmental assessments have been completed for the Ole’s Site and a
Phase 1 and partial Phase 2 have been completed for the City Site. The Phase 2 assessment can
only be completed for this site when the substation equipment is removed. All investigations to
date indicate only small minor amounts of contamination that will be addressed by removal of
the soil when the parking garage excavation takes place. The investigations show no
groundwater has been affected. The risk to both the City and the Developer from the
environmental indemnity provisions is minimal.
CMR: 340:07 Page 2 of 4
Option to Repurchase
The ADA has a City "option to repurchase" instead of a "right of reverter" should the Developer
fail to complete the Development or comply with its affordability requirements. The ADA
provides for an option to repurchase the entire "Site" (i.e., the City Parcel and the Ole’s Parcel,
as those terms are defined in the ADA), with the Option Purchase Price being the amount then
due on the City Loan (i.e., the cancellation of the City Loan). Both an option and a fight of
reverter were among the security alternatives contemplated by the September 18, 2006 Three
Party Agreement, which was approved by the Council and provides the basis for the ADA. It
states that "... the DDA shall provide that title to the Housing Site shall revert to the City
(whether by right of termination as to the City Parcel, exercise of an option as the entire Housing
Site and/or other appropriate means)" (see Section 5.h).
In general, there is little functional difference between the two devices in terms of the City’s
ultimate rights to enforce its remedies, but the option alternative was recommended by the City’s
outside counsel for two reasons: First, the concept of a right of reverter is not well defined
outside of the redevelopment law context (where it is a creature of statute) and therefore is not
well understood by lenders and title companies. As a result, any contract provision effecting
reverter would have to be complex, which can be a deterrent to lenders and burden the parties
with the task of interpreting novel language in their implementation of the agreement.
Conversely, an option is a very commonly used and well understood instrument, which can rely
on a well developed body of case law when there is an interpretation issue.
Secondly, the option requires the City to make a conscious decision to accept the "Site" as
opposed to simply becoming owner by the occurrence of events beyond its control as may occur
with an automatic reverter. This protects the City from acquiring property with significant
liabilities, such as contamination, debts, liens or an incomplete and/or dangerous structure. In
addition, the date of the acquisition would be accurately established by the City’s exercise of its
option, which would prevent the City from being subject to potential liability for the condition of
property that it may not have been aware that it owned. In other words, the option is ultimately
more advantageous for the City because it provides an efficient security instrument while
insulating the City from some liability that would be present with a right of reverter.

arising from or in connection with, or caused by (i) any act, omission or negligence of Developer
or any of Developer’s respective contractors, licensees, invitees, agents, servants or employees,
wherever the same may occur; (ii) any use of the Site, or any accident, injury, death or damage to
any person or property occurring in, on or about the Site or any part thereof, or from the
construction or use by Developer of the Site or the Development, or from any activity, work or
thing done, permitted or suffered by Developer or its contractors, employees, servants, agents or
invitees, in or about the Site or elsewhere to the extent not caused by the acts or omissions of
Indemnitees; and (iii) any breach or default in the performance of any obligations on
Developer’s part to be performed under the terms of this Agreement, or arising from any
negligence of Developer, or any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon, but
excluding those arising solely out of the City’s negligence or intentional misconduct; and in case
any action or proceeding is brought against Indemnitees by reason of any such claim, Developer
upon notice from Indemnitees shall defend the same at Developer’s expense with counsel
satisfactory to Indemnitees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any litigation or
claims arising under CEQA or NEPA in which Indemnitees control or are responsible for the
preparation and/or review of CEQA or NEPA documentation, the indemnification provided for
in this Section 5.10 shall be limited to fifty percent (50%) of such fees, costs and damages.
Developer, as a material part of the consideration to City, hereby assumes all risk
of damage to property or injury to persons in, upon or about the Site arising from any cause
whatsoever, except as provided in Section 4.5.3. These provisions are in addition to, and not in
lieu of, the insurance required to be provided by Section 5.11 below.
Without affecting the rights of Indemnitees under any provision of this
Agreement, Developer shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitees for
liability attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Indemnitees, provided such
gross negligence or willful misconduct is determined by agreement between the parties or by the
findings of a court of competent jurisdiction. In instances where Indemnitees are shown to have
been grossly negligent and where Indemnitees’ gross negligence accounts for only a percentage
of the liability involved, the obligation of Developer will be for that entire portion or percentage
of liability not attributable to the gross negligence of Indemnitees.
Failure of Indemnitees to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no
additional obligations on Indemnitees and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder.
This obligation to indemnify and defend Indemnitees as set forth here is binding on the
10677-0013\933044v6:.7.doc - 22 -DRAFF g7-0814-3011 ~13-707
successors, assigns or heirs of Developer and shall survive the termination of this Agreement or
this section.
(b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, Developer shall indemnify, defend
and hold harmless the Indemnitees from and against any known or unknown claim, loss,
damages, liability, obligation (including, without limitation, any obligation to monitor, test,
sample, report to governmental authorities, remediate or clean up, or any obligation under a
permit or order), expense, contribution or indemnity obligation (whether under any
Environmental Law or any other statute, common law or in equity), Remediation Costs for the
Ole’s Parcel or any other claims, demands, causes of action, suits, judgments, debts, costs,
losses, penalties, fines, encumbrances, rights, obligations, indemnities, liens, expenses (including
but not limited to any claims for attorneys’ fees and costs), settlements, professionals’ fees, tax
claims, claims for payment, claims for contribution or indemnity (whether statutory, contractual
or equitable), of any and every kind or nature whatsoever that relate to the Ole’s Parcel, and (i)
whether based on strict liability, active or passive negligence, gross negligence, contractual or
statutory liability, or otherwise; or (ii) whether seeking judicial, arbitral, administrative, or
equitable relief or otherwise, costs and expenses of investigation, analysis, Remediation, and
defense of any claim, and whether or not any such claim is ultimately defeated; or (iii) whether
seeking a fine or penalty; or (iv) whether incurred by a Party hereto or claimed by any third party
(including, without limitation, any governmental entity), arising out of or relating to any actual,
alleged or threatened discharge, release, emission, spill or migration into the environment, or any
such discharge, release, disposal, emission, spill, migration, or Remediation of any Hazardous
Material on or under the Ole’s Parcel or emanating from the Ole’s Parcel, or any other

additional insureds to Developer’s and General Contractor’s policies. On the General
Contractor’s policy, the insurer shall use ISO Form CG 20 10 11 85 or equivalent (including CG
20 10 forms with later publishing dates if accompanied by form CG 20 37 providing completed
operations coverage), not limiting coverage for the additional insured to "ongoing operations" or
in any way excluding coveragd for completed operations. All coverage shall apply on a primary
non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance, primary or excess,
available to City or any employee or agent of City. Coverage shall not be limited to the vicarious
liability or supervisory role of any additional insured. The General Contractor’s coverage shall
contain no contractors’ limitation or other endorsement that reduces coverage from that provided
by the basic ISO policy or equivalent. See Section 5.11.2(d) below.
(b)Umbrella (or excess) Liability Insurance (over primary) for Developer
and the General Contractor shall apply to bodily injury/property damage, personal
injury/advertising injury, at a minimum. Coverage shall be at least as broad as, any underlying
coverage. Coverage shall be provided on a "pay on behalf’’ basis (rather than reimbursement),

provided in the underlying policy. Policy limits shall be not less than two million dollars
10677-0013\933044v6,.7_.doc - 23 -DRAFT 10g08/4-301/O707
($2,000,000) per occurrence and in the aggregate for a total of three million dollars ($3,000,000)
when added to the underling policy. The policies shall have starting and ending dates concurrent
with the underlying coverages. The Named Insured may determine the layering of primary and
excess liability insurance provided that if such layering differs from that described here, the
actual coverage progam meets the minimum total required limits and complies with all other
requirements listed here. Policies shall be endorsed to provide a separate aggregate for this
project.
(c)Business Auto Coverage for The General Contractor shall be written on
ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01 or the equivalent, including coverage for owned,
nonowned and hired autos. If the General Contractor does not own any vehicles, this
requirement may be satisfied by a nonowned vehicle endorsement to the general and umbrella
liability policies. Limits shall be no less than two million dollars ($2,000,000) per accident.
(d)Workers’ Compensation/Employer’s Liability for Developer and the
General Contractor shall provide workers’ compensation statutory benefits as required by law.

personal property for "all risks" of loss or "comprehensive perils" coverage for all buildings,
structures, fixtures, materials, supplies, machinery and equipment to be used in or incidental to
the construction at the Site, off site, or in transit, for the full replacement value of such
properties. Coverage is not intended to cover equipment or other property of any contractor or
subcontractor but shall not exclude property of others in the care, custody or control of the
insured for which any insured may be liable. After completion of construction, Developer shall
maintain Commercial Property Insurance covering the premises, fixtures, equipment, building,
all property situated in, on, or constituting a part of the premises and any improvements.
Coverage shall be at least as broad as the Insurance Services Offices broad causes of loss form
CP 10 20. Coverage shall be sufficient to insure 100% of the replacement value and there shall
be no coinsurance provisions. The policy shall include an inflation guard endorsement, 100%
rents coverage, contents coverage, coverage for personal property of others, ordinance or law and
increased cost of construction coverage.

Section 5.11 are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a

inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any ~ype.
(c) All general or auto liability insurance coverage provided pursuant to this
Agreement, or any other agreements pertaining to the performance of this Agreement, shall not
prohibit Developer or General Contractor, and Developer’s or General Contractor’s employees,
or agents, from waiving the right of recovery prior to a loss. Developer waives its right of
recovery against City. Developer shall require a similar waiver in favor of City from Contractor
in the contract between Developer and Contractor.

insured under these requirements to obtain proof of insurance required under this Agreement in
no way waives any right or remedy of City or any additional insured, in this or any other regard.

subcontractors or other parties (but not including General Contractor) hired for this project to
purchase and maintain insurance for general liability (minimum limit $1,000,000 per

paragraph will be submitted to City for review. Failure of City to request copies of such
documents will not impose any liability on City, or its employees.

right to charge back to City the cost of insurance required by this Agreement.

General Contractor will assure that the Project site and all sites connected with the project in any

way are covered under the insurance policies, including those of subcontractors and other parties,
that provide coverage as required by this Agreement.
(n) Developer agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss
against Developer that includes City as a defendant. City assumes no obligation or liability by
such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or
claims if they are likely to involve City.
(o) Developer agrees not to attempt to avoid its defense and indemnity
obligations to City and its employees, agents, officials and servants by using as a defense
Developer’s statutory immunity under workers’ compensation and similar statutes. Developer

general liability, and if necessary, commercial umbrella liability insurance with a limit of not less
than three million dollars ($3,000,000) each occurrence for at least three years following

upon by City within ten (10) days of City receiving evidence of the financing. In any event,
Developer shall promptly notify City of any Mortgage that has been created or attached thereto

Manager, appropriate City rights to notice of, and cure rights for, any Developer defaults under
the Mortgage.

construct or complete the Improvements or to guarantee such construction or completion.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to permit or authorize any Holder to
devote the Site to any uses, or to construct any improvements thereon, other than those uses or
Improvements provided for or authorized by this Agreement.
5.13.3 Notice of Default to Mortgage Holders; Right to Cure
If Developer shall Mortgage the Site and/or Improvements, or any part or parts
thereof, City agrees that so long as any such Mortgage(s) shall remain unsatisfied of record or
until written notice of satisfaction is given by the Holder(s) to City, whenever City shall deliver
any notice or demand to Developer regarding any breach or default by Developer in completion
of construction of the Improvements, or any other alleged default, City shall at the same time
deliver to each Holder of record authorized by this Agreement a copy of such notice or demand,
but only if: (i) the Mortgage(s) is authorized by Section 5.13.1, (ii) the Holder(s) of such
Mortgage(s) shall have delivered to City a true copy thereof, together with written notice
specifying the name and address of the Holder(s) and the pertinent recording data with respect to
such Mortgage(s), and (iii) such Mortgage(s) delivered by such Holder(s) contain(s) provisions
permitting City’s right to cure in accordance with Section 5.13.5 hereof:
Each such Holder shall (insofar as the rights of City are concerned) have the right
at its option, within ninety (90) days after the expiration of any and all cure periods available to
Developer, to cure or remedy such default and to add the cost thereof to the security interest debt
and to the lien on its security interest or the obligations of Developer under any sale lease-back
10677-0013\933044v~7_,doc - 27 -DRAFT 8708/4401/0g07

which can only be remedied or cured by such Holder upon obtaining possession of the Site and
such Holder seeks to obtain possession with diligence through a receiver or otherwise, such
Holder shall have until ninety (90) days after obtaining possession to cure such default.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the case of a default which cannot
with diligence be remedied or cured, or the remedy or cure of which cannot be commenced,
within ninety (90) days, such Holder shall have such additional time as reasonably necessary to
remedy or cure such default with diligence; provided, further, such Holder shall not be required
to remedy or cure any non-curable default of Developer.
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to permit or authorize such
Holder to undertake the construction of the Improvements (beyond the extent necessary to
conserve or protect the Improvements or construction already made, including, without
limitation, the ability to continue the construction or completion of Improvements already begun)
without first having expressly assumed the obligations of Developer for the portion of the Site in
which the Holder has an interest, by written agreement reasonably satisfactory to City. The
Holder in that event shall only be liable or bound by Developer’s obligations hereunder for such
period as the Holder was in possession of the portion of the Site in which the Holder has an
interest and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, shall only be
liable to the extent of its interest in the portion of the Site and the Improvements owned by it
thereon. The Holder in that event must agree to complete, in the manner provided in this
Agreement, the Improvements to which the lien or title of such Holder relates.
Breach of any of the covenants, conditions, restrictions, or reservations contained
in this Agreement shall not defeat or render invalid the lien of any Mortgage made in good faith
and for value as to the Site or any portion of the Site or interest therein, whether or not the
Mortgage is subordinated to this Agreement. Unless otherwise herein provided, the terms,
conditions, covenants, restrictions and reservations of this Agreement shall be binding and
effective against the Holder and any owner of the Site, or any portion of the Site, whose title
thereto is acquired by foreclosure, trustee’s sale, or otherwise.
No purported rule, regulation, modification, amendment and/or termination of this
Agreement affecting the rights of a Holder shall be binding upon any Holder holding a Mortgage
from and after the date of recordation of such Mortgage unless and until the written consent of
such Holder is obtained. This Section 5.13.3 shall not be applicable to HERD.
5.13.4 Failure of Holder to Complete Improvements
If in any case, within ninety (90) days after all cure periods have expired after
default by Developer in completion of construction of the Improvements on the Site under this
Agreement, and the notice required by Section 8.1 was properly given, and a Holder has not
exercised the option afforded in Section 5.13.3 hereof to construct the Improvements, City may,
upon thirty (30) days’ written notice: (i) purchase the Mortgage by payment to the Holder of the
amount of the unpaid debt plus accrued but unpaid interest and other advances and amounts
secured by the security interest, or in the case of a lessor or grantee by payment to such lessor or
grantee of the purchase price paid for its interest in the Site and the Improvements and any
unpaid rent and other charges and sums payable to it under its applicable agreements with its
lessee or grantor; (ii) assume such Mortgage in accordance with the terms of such Mortgage
upon the prior written consent of such Holder, and/or (iii) terminate this Agreement by notice to
Developer.

5.13.5 Right of City to Cure Mortgage Default
In the event of an uncured default or breach by Developer of a Mortgage for
financing for the Site or the Improvements prior to the Restriction Termination Date (unless
Developer is contesting such default in good faith), and the Holder has not exercised its option to
complete the Improvements, City may, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, cure the default
no sooner than immediately prior to completion of any imminent foreclosure. In such event,
City shall be entitled to reimbursement of all direct and actual costs and expenses incurred by
City in curing the default which reimbursement shall be a nonrecourse obligation of Developer.
Such reimbursement amount may be secured at City’s option by a lien against the Site. Any
such lien shall be subordinate and subject to existing mortgages, deeds of trust or other security
instruments and grantees under other conveyances for financing permitted pursuant to this
Agreement.
ARTICLE 6 USES OF THE SITE

In addition, at least thirty percent (30%) of the Affordable Units shall be occupied by extremely
low income households whose incomes do not exceed thirty percent (30%) of the Area Median
Income (the "Extremely Low Income Affordable Units"). Developer also shall grant a
preference in its selection of tenants to persons who live or work in Palo Alto, to the fullest
extent permitted by law.
6.2.2 The Extremely Low Income Affordable Units are not specifically
assigned; they may change as units become vacant and others are occupied. Once a household

not being satisfactoril.y maintained. If Developer fails to cure the failure within the cure periods

terminate the management contract and retain a different management agent approved by City.
The management contract shall include a provision that it shall be subject to termination by
Developer without penalty, upon not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice, if City shall
request Developer (i) to exercise such right of termination, and (ii) to make immediate
arrangements satisfactory to City for continuing management of the Development. Developer

and qualifications in managing rental housing affordable to Very Low Income Households, as
well as market rate housing.

every successor in interest to the Site, or any portion thereof, that from and after Developer’s

The parties acknowledge that over the period of time during which these
covenants will be effective, various Improvements are likely to become obsolete and will need to
be rehabilitated or replaced, and agree that the standard of "reasonable" wear and tear includes
and incorporates this understanding. Subject to the foregoing, this standard for the quality of
maintenance shall be met whether or not a specific item of maintenance is listed below.

inspection for graffiti or damage or deterioration or failure, and repainting or repair or
replacement of all surfaces, fencing, walls, equipment, etc., as necessary; emptying of trash

landscaping in a healthy and attractive condition, including trimming, fertilizing and replacing
vegetation as necessary; cleaning windows on a regular basis; painting the Improvements on a
regular program and prior to the deterioration of the painted surfaces; and maintaining security
devices in good working order.

Improvements thereon in accordance with these standards for the quality of maintenance, City or
its designee shall have the right but not the obligation to enter the Site upon reasonable notice to
the then record owner of the Site, correct any violation, and hold the then record owner of the
Site responsible for the cost thereof. Such cost, until paid, shall constitute a lien on the Site.

make or suffer to be made any alterations, additions, or improvements to or on the Site or any
building or structure thereon or any part thereof without the prior written consent of City, which
consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any request for consent
shall be accompanied by plans and specifications for the proposed work in reasonable detail
(including component materials and finish items) to enable City to consider whether or not to
grant approval. City may condition its approval in any way reasonably deemed necessary by
City to protect its interest in the Site. The term "Permitted Alterations" shall mean and
Developer shall not be required to obtain the consent of City for, unless otherwise required by
the Municipal Code, the following, to the extent they comply with all applicable City procedures
and requirements: (i) any alterations, additions, improvements, exterior painting or landscaping
(which alterations, additions, improvements, exterior painting or landscaping undertaken during
a twelve (12) month period cost less than twenty percent (20%) of the value of the Site after
issuance of the certificate of occupancy); and (ii) any tenant improvements within the residential
units.
All alterations, additions, or improvements by Developer shall be made without
cost or expense to City, by responsible and licensed contractors. All improvements and
equipment shall be designed, built, and installed in accordance with all applicable building codes
and regulations, and Developer shall obtain all necessary building permits.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Section, prior to the Restriction
Termination Date, construction or rehabilitation of the Improvements shall be governed by the
applicable provisions of this Agreement.

9.2 Nonliability and City Officials and Employees
No member, official or employee of City shall be personally liable to Developer,
or any successor in interest, in the event of any default or breach by City or for any amount that
may become due to Developer or its successors, or on any obligations under the terms of this
Agreement.
9.3 Enforced Delay; Extension of Times of Performance
In addition to specific provisions of this Agreement, performance by any Party
hereunder shall not be deemed to be in default, where delays or defaults are due to acts of God,
or the elements, accident, casualty, unavailability or delays in delivery of any product, labor,
fuel, service or materials, failure or break-down of equipment, strikes, lockouts, or other labor
disturbances, acts of the public enemy, orders or inaction of any kind from the government of the
United States, the State of California, or any other governmental, military or civil authority
(other than City, to the extent that such orders or inaction affect City’s obligations, performance
or fights under this Agreement), war, acts of terrorism, insurrections, riots, epidemics, quarantine
restrictions, floods, fires, earthquakes, civil disturbances, explosions, freight embargoes, lack of
transportation, breakage or accidents to vehicles, litigation, including litigation challenging the
validity of this transaction or any part thereof, or any other inability of any Party, whether similar
or dissimilar to those enumerated or othexwise, which are not within the control of the Party
claiming such inability or disability, which such Party could not have avoided by exercising due
diligence and care and regarding which such Party shall use all reasonable efforts that are
practically available to it in order to correct such condition.
However, Developer shall not be entitled to any extension of time pursuant to this
Section due to any event or condition caused by Developer’s inherent financial condition or
financial inability to pay its monetary obligations when due (as distinguished from Developer’s
inability to make a payment by reason of a bank’s failure or some other external cause not
associated with Developer’s financial condition).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, an extension of time
for any such cause shall be for the period of time reasonable in light of the enforced delay. The
extension of time shall commence to run from the time of the commencement of the cause, so
long as the Party claiming the extension has notified the other Party in writing of the nature of
the matter constituting the enforced delay within fifteen (15) days after the occurrence of the
enforced delay.
9.4 Plans and Data
If this Agreement is terminated for any reason other than City’s default,
Developer shall deliver to City copies of any and all plans and data concerning the Site which are
in the possession of Developer, and shall assign to City all rights held by Developer to use such
plans and data. In doing so, Developer shall not be considered to be making any representation
regarding the content of such plans and data or expressly or impliedly warranting the accuracy
thereof.

9.5 No Real Estate Commission
If any claim for brokers’ or finders’ fees for the consummation of this Agreement
arises, then Developer hereby agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend City from and
against such claim(s) if it (they) shall be based upon any statement or representation or
agreement made by Developer.
9.6 Successors and Assigns
This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties to this
Agreement and their respective successors and assigns, provided, however, that this provision
shall not authorize the assignment or transfer of any interest that is prohibited specifically by the
other terms of this Agreement.
9.7 Relationship of the Parties
The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not cause the Parties hereto to
be construed in any manner whatsoever as partners, joint venturers or agents of each other in the
performance of their respective duties and obligations under this Agreement, or subject either
Party to this Agreement to any obligations, loss, charge or expense of the other Party unless the
Party to be held responsible has independently contracted with the claimant so as to make it
directly responsible for the performance and/or payment, as appropriate, of the pertinent
obligation, loss, charge or expense.
9.8 Text to Control; Interpretation
9.8.1 The headings in this Agreement are included solely for convenience, and
if there shall be any conflict between such headings and the text of this Agreement, the text shall
control.
9.8.2 Should any provisions of this Agreement require interpretation, it is
agreed that the person or persons interpreting or construing the same shall not apply a
presumption that the terms of this Agreement shall be more strictly construed against one Party
by reason of the rule of construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against the
Party thereto who itself or through its agent or counsel prepared the same or caused the same to
be prepared; it being agreed that the agents and counsel of both of the Parties hereto have
participated equally in the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement.
9.9 Severability
To the best knowledge and belief of the Parties to this Agreement, this Agreement
contains no provision that is contrary to any federal, state or local Law or to any regulatory
requirement or other ruling or regulation of a federal, state or local agency or that would be in
breach of the obligations of either or both of the Parties hereto under the terms and provision of
any legally binding agreement. However, if any provision of this Agreement, or any part
thereof, shall at any time be held to be invalid, in whole or in part, under any applicable federal,
state or local Law by a court of competent jurisdiction, or by arbitrators or an administrative
agency of the federal, state or local government with proper jurisdiction, then such provision or a
portion thereof, as appropriate, shall be curtailed and limited only to the extent necessary to bring
it within the requirements of the Law and the validity and enforceability of the remaining
provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or
invalidated, unless the invalidated provision(s) shall uniquely, materially and adversely affect the
rights and obligations of a Party to this Agreement.

and signed by the Parties hereto. Developer and City agree to mutually consider reasonable

regard to whether Grantor is or remains an owner of any land or interest therein to
which such covenants relate. Grantor shall have the right, in the event of any
breach of any such covenant or agreement, after delivery of notice and expiration

deem desirable for effectuating the purposes of the Option and this Section,
including, but not limited to specific performance. Any delay by the Grantor in
instituting or prosecuting any such actions or proceedings or otherwise asserting

deprive it of or limit such fights in any way (it being the intent of this provision
that Grantor should not be constrained so as to avoid the risk of being deprived of

concepts of waiver, laches, or others), nor shall any waiver in fact made by the
Grantor with respect to any specific default by the Grantee, its successors and
assigns, be considered or treated as a waiver of the fights of the Grantor with
respect to any other defaults by the Grantee, its successors and assigns, or with

and Trustor irrevocably appoints Beneficiary Trustor’s true and lawful attorney at the option of

place of sale, and from time to time thereafter may postpone such sale by public announcement
at the time fixed by the preceding postponement. Trustee shall deliver to such purchaser its deed
conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The
recitals in such deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof.
Any person, including Trustor, Trustee, or Beneficiary as hereinafter defined, may purchase at
the sale.
After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of Trustee and of this Trust, including cost of
evidence of title in connection with sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of:
all sums expended under the terms hereof, not then repaid, with accrued interest at the amount
allowed by law in effect at the date hereof; all other sums then secured hereby; and the
remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.
(16) Beneficiary, or any successor in ownership of any indebtedness secured hereby, may
from time to time, by instrument in writing, substitute a successor or successors to any Trustee
named herein or acting hereunder, which instrument, executed by the Beneficiary and duly
acknowledged and recorded in the office of the recorder of the county or counties where the
Property is situated, shall be conclusive proof of proper substitution of such successor Trustee or
Trustees, who shall, without conveyance from the Trustee predecessor, succeed to all its title
estate, rights, powers and duties. The instrument must contain the name of the original Trustor,
Trustee and Beneficiary hereunder, the book and page where this Deed of Trust is recorded and
the name and address of the new Trustee.
(17) That this Deed of Trust applies to, inures to the benefit of, and binds all parties hereto,
their heirs, legatees, devisees, administrators, executors, successors and assigns. The term
Beneficiary shall mean the owner and holder, including pledgees, of the Note, whether or not
10677-0013\933044v6:.7~doc Attachment No. 8
(Page 5)
DRAFT 0g08/-1401/07
named as Beneficiary herein. In this Deed of Trust, whenever the context so requires, the
masculine gender includes the feminine and/or neuter, and the singular number includes the
plural.
(18) That Trustee accepts this Trust when this Deed of Trust, duly executed and
acknowledged, is made a public record as provided by law. Trustee is not obligated to notify any
party hereto of pending sale under any Deed of Trust or of any action or proceeding in which
either Trustor, Beneficiary or Trustee shall be a party unless brought by Trustee.
(19) If Trustor shall die or sell, convey, hypothecate, transfer, encumber or alienate the
Property, or any part thereof, or any interest therein, or shall be divested of title or any interest
therein in any manner or way, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, without the written consent
of the Beneficiary being first had and obtained, or if Trustor shall fail to make any payments due
under the Note, or fail to perform any other obligation under this Deed of Trust, the Note, the
Regulatory Agreement, or the A~eement, or any other deed of trust encumbering the Property or
the promissory note or other agreement secured thereby, then Beneficiary shall have the right, at
its option, to declare any indebtedness or obligations secured hereby, irrespective of the maturity
date specified in any note evidencing the same, immediately due and payable.
(20) That Trustor shall promptly pay when due the payments of interest, principal, and all
other charges accruing under any superior or prior trust deed, mortgage, or other instrument
encumbering the Property. Upon any breach of the Agreement, Beneficiary shall have the right
to declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable. Beneficiary shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to cure any defaults on any superior or prior deed of trust or
promissory note secured thereby and upon curing such default Trustor shall immediately
reimburse Beneficiary for all costs and expenses incurred thereby, together with interest thereon
at the maximum legal rate permitted to be charged by non-exempt lenders under the State of
California, and Trustor’s failure to pay such amount on demand shall be a breach hereof.
Trustor’s breach or default of any covenant or condition of any superior or prior trust deed,
mortgage or other instrument encumbering the Property shall be a default under this Deed of
Trust.
(21) That the improvements now existing or to be constructed upon the Property, and all plans
and specifications, comply with all municipal ordinances and regulations and all other
regulations made or promulgated, now or hereafter, by lawful authority, and that the same will
upon completion comply with all such municipal ordinances and regulations and with the rules
of the applicable fire rating or inspection organization, bureau, association or office.
The undersigned Trustor requests that a copy of any Notice of Default and of any Notice of Sale
hereunder be mailed to it at the following address:
