AGREEMENT
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Redevelopment Agency approve Amendment
No. 2 to the Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) between
the Tustin Community Redevelopment Agency and Shea Homes Limited
Partnership, subject to any minor modifications made with approval
of the City Attorney.
FISCAL IMPACT
No additional Agency financial commitment is needed for the
project.
DISCUSSION
The.Redevel°pment Agency approved a DDA with Shea Homes on August
21, 1995 for development of 145 single family detached owner homes
in the South Central Redevelopment Project Area. The Agency also
subsequently approved an Amendment to the DDA on April 1, 1996.
The DDA and deeds for the project require that 21 affordable units
be maintained in the project: .8 units for very low income
households; 6 units for low income households; and, 7 units for.
moderate income households. These units are secured by
affordability covenants and a deed of trust. The deeds of trust on
the very low and low income units were based on the actual Agency
subsidy provided. On the moderate income units,, the Agency placed
a $10,000 second trust deed on the property as an enforcement
mechanism, even though there was no Agency subsidy.
There is now a problem with the sale of moderate restricted units'
in that .moderate income buyers with the restrictions required by
Redevelopment AgencY Report ~ - -
Amendment No. 2 to Shea Homes DDA
July 21, 1997
Page 2
the DDA are not desirous of having an additional $10,000 added to
their mortgage. Shea has only been able to sell one of the
moderate restricted units because the buyer wanted the specific
location of the unit. Shea has even reduced the price of the
moderate income restricted units by $10,000 in an attempt to offset
the $10,000 trust deed being required; but the buyers still do not
want the restrictions.
The City has identified a mechanism to provide the Agency with. a
reasonable enforcement mechanism without having to rely on a
$10,000 deed of trust. Amendments to the Shea Homes DDA have been
prepared to accommodate the needed changes on moderate income unit
requirements and the Agency's loan documents. The Amendment is
necessarily broad since the City Attorney's office has not yet been
able to obtain approval of lenders on the Agreement. As a result,
the City Attorney has designed the Amendment to avoid the need to
further address any individual issue which may still arise with
lenders or Shea Homes to resolve this issue. We are, therefore,
requesting' that the Agency approve the Amendment, subject' to any
modifications necessary in further negotiations subject to approVal
of the City Attorney.

AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO
DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
by and between
THE TUSTIN COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY,
as Agency,
and
SHEA HOMES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP,
a California Limited Partnership,
as Developer
AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO
DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
This Amendment No. 2 to Disposition and Development Agreement
("Amendment No. 2 to DDA") is entered into by and between the Tustin Community
Redevelopment Agency, a California community redevelopment agency ("Agency"),
and Shea Homes Limited Partnership, a California limited partnership ("Developer"),
with reference to the following facts:
A. On December 27, 1995, Agency and Developer entered into a Disposition
and Development Agreement (the "DDA") with regard to the development of a 145-unit
single family, owner occupied project as more fully described therein and currently
known as Tustin Grove (the "Project"). On that same date, and pursuant to the DDA,
Developer executed 'a promissory note (the "Note"), in an amount not to exceed Three
Hundred Ninety-Seven Thousand One Hundred Eighty-Three Dollars ($397,183.00),
payable to Agency. The Note is secured by a deed of trust against the Project dated
December 21, 1995, executed by Developer and recorded in the official records of the
County Recorder of Orange County, California on January 2, 1996, as Instrument
Number 19960002071 (the "Deed of Trust").
B. Under the provisions of the DDA, Developer is required to sell 21 of the
units at the Project to moderate, Iow and very Iow income buyers, as more specifically
provided in the DDA (the "Affordable Units"). In addition, the DDA requires that
Developer's deeds to the buyers of the Affordable Units contain certain occupancy and
resale restrictions which are covenants running with the land ("Agency's CC&R's").
Also, the DDA requires that Agency shall provide, to the buyers of the Affordable Units,
certain financing in the form of notes and deeds of trust ("Agency's Loan Documents").
The deeds of trust shall be subordinate to the deeds of trust of certain third-party
lenders.
C. When Developer was beginning sales of certain Affordable Units,
Developer determined that it wished to have the Project apprOved by the Federal
National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") and the United States Department of Housing.
and Urban Development ("HUD"). This was to enhance the ability of Developer's
mortgage broker to broker loans for the Affordable Units and to enhance potential sales
of the Affordable Units; Certain provisions of the DDA involving Agency's CC&Rs and
Agency's Loan Documents needed to be modified to satisfy FNMA and/or HUD.
Accordingly, on May 30, 1996, Agency and DeVeloper entered into an Amendment No.
1101-00002
48633_1
'1 to Disposition and Development Agreement ("Ame'ndment NO. 1 to DDA"), in orde~: to
effectuate the necessary changes. Amendment No. 1 to DDA obligated Agency to (1)
use its best efforts to negotiate with FNMA and/or HUD concerning, the changes to
Agency's CC&R's and Agency's Loan Documents necessary to satisfy both the
requirements of FNMA and/or HUD and the needs of AgencY in its redevelopment
efforts, and (2) provide notice of any negotiated changes to Developer. Pursuant to
Amendment No. I to DDA, Agency provided Developer with Agency Notice No. 1 re
Changes to DDA ("Notice No. 1"), dated ,1996, informing Developer of
the following: (a) changes in Agency's CC&R's, (b) the additional requirement of a right
of first refusal with respect to each Affordable Unit, and (c) the resulting need to amend
the Note and Deed of Trust. Pur, suant to Amendment No. 1 to DDA and Notice No. 1,
the parties executed an Amendment No. 1 to Promissory Note, dated
("Note Amendment No. 1"), and an Amendment No. I to Deed of Trust, dated
~, 1996, and recorded in the official records of the County Recorder of Orange
County, California on ,1996, as Instrument Number
~ ("Deed of Trust Amendment No. 1").
D. Developer has now sold all of the Low and Very-Low Income Units, as
required under the DDA, but has sold only one 'of the seven Moderate Income Units
required to be sold under the DDA. The DDA presently requires Developer to sell the
Moderate Income Units to moderate income households subject to both (1) Agency's
CC&R's, and (2) a Ten Thousand Dollar ($10,000) "silent second" deed of trust.
However, Agency does not actually lend any money to the purchaser of a Moderate
Income Unit. Rather, the "silent second" merely provides a mechanism for Agency to
enforce Agency's CC&R's against the purchaser and provides the purchaser with a
method of buying out of Agency's CC&R's, if so desired. Apparently, moderate income
household purchasers, for the most part, find that there are other more attractive and
more feasible methods of financing a unit rather than purchasing it as a Moderate
Income Unit subject to a "silent second." Therefore, Developer has an inventory of
unsold Moderate Income Units.
E. In order to satisfy its requirement, under the DDA, to sell six more
Moderate Income Units, Developer has requested that the "silent second's'_ for Moderate
Income Units be eliminated and that Agency rely upon anOther method of enforcing
Agency's CC&R's against the purchasers of Moderate Income Units. Agency is willing
to eliminate the "silent second," but only if Agency's CC&R's are expanded to contain a
replacement enforcement mechanism.
F. Developer has a need to offer competitive financing for Moderate Income
Units at the Project, so that it can sell those Units more expeditiously.
G. Agency has an interest in having the Moderate Income units at the
1101-00002
48633_1
Project sold, in order to increase the pool of affordable housing for moderate income
persons or families in the City of Tustin.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Section 611.2 of the DDA is.hereby revised to read as follows:
"2. Moderate Income Units
For the purposes of implementing this Section 611 for those units
identified by Developer and approved by Agency pursuant to Section 602 as for
sale to moderate income households, above, Developer shall cause to be
included in the grant deed for the sale of each unit, the following language:
'The grant made by this Deed shall be conditioned upon and
subject to the following covenants, conditions and
restrictions:
..
Grantee shall use and occupy the premises as Grantee's principal place
of residence upon acquisition of title or possession, whichever is earlier,
and Grantee shall not transfer any interest in the premises, nor enter into
any sale of the premises prior to the close of escrow for the sale of the
Premises to Grantee; and
.
Any transfer of any interest in the premises, or any contract or lease or
sale of the premises Prior to the acquisition of title to the premises by
Grantee shall be void; and
.
Except as set forth in this Paragraph 3, Grantee shall use and occupy the
premises as Grantee's principal place of residence immediately upon the
close of escrow and shall continue to so use and occupy the premises for
the duration of Grantee's ownership of the premises. For a period of five
(5) years from the date of this deed, Grantee shall not lease or rent the
premises for any reason unless Grantee obtains the prior written consent
of the Tustin Community Redevelopment Agency ("Agency"), which shall
be granted within fifteen (15) business days after Grantee provides to
· Agency both: (i) a written request for Agency's consent to. the proposed
rental, and (ii) evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Agency, that the
proposed rental rate is an "affordable rent" for moderate income
households, as defined in Health and Safety Code Section 50053, and
that the proposed renter is a moderate income person or family, as
defined in Health and Safety Code Section 50093. After such five (5) year
1101-00002
48633_1
,
.
period, Grantee may-lease or rent the premises without restriction'; and
If, prior to July 15, 2015, Grantee desires to sell the premises, Grantee
may do so only if, with the prior written consent of Agency, it sells the
premises: (i) at an "affordable housing cost" for a moderate income
household, as defined in Section 50052.5 of the Health and Safety Code,
and (ii) to a transferee who qualifies as a moderate income person or
family, as defined in Section 50093 of the Health and Safety Code, and
who agrees in writing to be bound by the covenants, conditions and
restrictions of Paragraphs 1 through 8 hereof. Agency shall consent to
the transfer to a moderate income transferee within fifteen (15) business
days after receipt, from Grantee, of (i) a written request for Agency's
consent to the proposed transfer, (ii) evidence, reasonably satisfactory to
Agency, that the proposed sales price qualifies as an "affordable housing
cost" for a moderate income household, as defined in Section 50052.5 of
the Health and Safety Code, and the proposed transferee qualifies as a
moderate income person or family, as defined in Section 50093 of the
Health and Safety Code, and (iii) the proposed transferee's written
agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Agency, to be bound by
the covenants, conditions, and restrictions of Paragraphs 1 through 8
hereof; and
If, prior t° July 15, 2015, Grantee desires to sell the premises without
complying with the preceding paragraph, Grantee may do so only with the
prior written consent of Agency, on payment to Agency of an amount
equal to: Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) plus the "Agency's Share of
Equity" earned in the unit during the time Grantee held title to the unit.
"Agency's Share of Equity" shall be the product: of the ratio that the Ten
Thousand Dollars ($10,000) bears to the.contracted sales price at the
time of the original purchase, times the equity earned in the unit during the
time Grantee was the owner of the unit. "Equity" shall be defined as the
difference between the sales price at which Grantee enters into a contract'
to resell the unit and the sum of (i) the down payment Grantee originally
paid at the time Grantee bought the unit, (ii) normal and reasonable loan
fees and closing costs paid for by Grantee when originally purchasing the
unit, and (iii) the outstanding balances of (a) any purchase money
mortgage(s) affecting the premises at the time of resale, and (b) any
mortgage(s), affecting the premises at the time of resale, used to
effectuate a refinance of a purchase money mortgage (or a prior refinance
thereof), to the extent that the original principle balance of the refinance
mortgage did not exceed the principle balance due and owing under the
purchase money mortgage (or a prior refinance thereof), at the time of the
1101-OOO02
48633_1
refinance. -To the-extent that the original principal balance-0f any
refinance mortgage exceeded the outstanding principle balance of the
purchase money mortgage (or a prior refinance thereof) at the time of the
refinance, the outstanding balance of such refinance mortgage at the time
of resale shall be reduced by the amount of such excess, for the purpose
of the calculation of "Equity" under this ParagraPh; and
The provisions of Paragraphs 1 through 8 shall constitute covenants
which shall run with the land and be binding upon Grantee and Grantee's
successors in interest, and all parties having, or acquiring any right, title or
interest in or to the premises. Any deed purporting to convey title to the
premises to a subsequent transferee shall be voidable, at the option of
Agency, unless it has attached thereto a written consent, from Agency, to
the transfer, pursuant to either Paragraph 4 or Paragraph 5 above. This
remedy is in addition to any other remedies that Agency possesses at law
or in equity to enforce the covenants, conditions and restrictions set forth
herein; and
,
The covenants, conditions and restrictions established under Paragraphs
1 through 8 are made expressly for the benefit of, and shall inure to,
Agency and the City of Tustin, a municipal corporation; and
Se
The provisions of Paragraphs I through 8 and the covenants running with
the land shall terminate automatically and become thereafter void on the
earlier to occur of: (1) July 15, 2015, (2) payment by Grantee of Ten
Thousand Dollars ($10,000) plus the Agency's Share of Equity pursuant
to Paragraph 5 above, (3) the date on which the premises are conveyed
by trustee's deed pursuant to foreclosure of the deed of trust of any
institutional lender whose deed of trust has first priority over all other
deeds of trust affecting the premises, (4) the date of any deed-in-lieu of
foreclosure pursuant to which the premises are conveyed to any
institutional lender whose deed of trust has first priority over all other
deeds of trust affecting the premises, or (5) the date of any assignment, to
the Department of Housing and Urban Development, of both (a) a note
which is (i) payable to any institutional lender and (ii) secured by a deed of
trust that has first priority over all other deeds of trust affecting the
premises, and (b) such deed of trust."
In addition, before the close of escrow pertaining to a Moderate Income
Unit, Developer shall: (a) obtain an acknowledgment, in form and substance
satisfactory to Agency, of the foregoing covenants, conditions and restrictions,
executed by each purchaser of a Moderate Income Unit, and (b) deliver the
1101-00002
48633_1
'original, executed aCknowledgment to Agency for its records."
2. Sections 404, 405 and 406 of the DDA are hereby deleted in their entireties.
3. At the request of Developer, Agency, in its sole and absolute discretion, may
further amend the DDA if Agency determines that either (a) Moderate Income Units
remain unsaleable due to Agency's CC&R's as amended herein, or (b) Agency's

such amendment, Agency may: (1) further amend Agency's CC&R's contained in DDA
Section 611.2, (2) reinstate the note and deed of trust requirement with respect to
Moderate Income Units, whether on the same or different terms as previously required

"Additional Documentation") with respect to Moderate Income Units as Agency, in its
sole and absolute discretion, determines will assist in Developer's sales efforts while
preserving Agency's ability to effectively enforce the requirement that the Moderate
Income Units remain owned and occupied by moderate income persons or families until
July 15, 2015. Any such DDA amendment shall be effective upon Developer's receipt
and acknowledgment of notice, in the form of an Agency Notice No. 2 re Changes to
DDA ("Notice No. 2"), executed by Agency.
4. The standard form closing documents, the standard form escrow instructions,
and the escrow procedures agreed upon by the parties shall be revised as necessary:

AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO PROMISSORY NOTE
(Shea Homes Limited Partnership)
RECITALS:
On December 27, 1995, SHEA HOMES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a California
limited partnership ("Obligor"), executed a promissory note (the "Note") in an amount
not to exceed Three Hundred Ninety-Seven Thousand One Hundred Eighty-Three
Dollars ($397,183.00) payable to the TUSTIN .COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCY, a California community redevelopment agency ("Agency"), pursuant to that
certain Disposition and Development Agreement between Obligor and Agency, dated
December 27, 1995 (the "DDA"). The DDA pertains to Obligor's development of certain
property known as Tustin Grove (the "Project"). The Note is secured by a deed of trust
against the Project dated December 21, 1995, executed by Obligor and recorded in the
official records of the County Recorder of Orange County, California on January 2,
1996, as Instrument Number 19960002071 (the "Deed of Trust").
Subsequent to the execution of the DDA, the Note, and the .Deed of Trust,
Obligor requested that Agency agree to amend the DDA and modify Agency's financing
program pertaining to the sale of units to very-low, low and moderate income buyers at
the Project, in order to obtain the approval of the United States Department of Housing
and Urban Development ("HUD") and/or the Federal National Mortgage Association to
the secondary financing for the Project. Pursuant to that certain Amendment No. I to
Disposition' and Development Agreement dated May 30, 1996 (the "First Amendment to
DDA"), between Obligor and Agency, and that certain Agency Notice No. I re Changes
to DDA attached to the First Amendment to DDA ("Notice No. 1"), the parties have so
amended the DDA. In order to effectuate the First Amendment to DDA, the parties
executed an Amendment No. I to Promissory Note, dated ("Note
Amendment No. 1"), and an Amendment No. I to Deed of Trust, dated
,
1996, and recorded in the official records of the County Recorder Of Orange County,
California on ,1996, as Instrument Number
("Deed of Trust Amendment No. 1").
Subsequent to the execUtion of the First Amendment to DDA, Note Amendment
No. 1, and Deed of Trust Amendment No. 1, Obligor requested that Agency agree to
further amend the DDA and modify Agency's financing program pertaining to the sale of
moderate income units at the Project, in order to make the financing of moderate
EXHIBIT "A"
Page 1 of 4
income units more competitive and to increase sales of moderate income units.
Pursuant to that certain Amendment No. 2 to Disposition and Development Agreement
dated ,1997 (the "Second Amendment to DDA"), between Obligor and
Agency, the parties have so amended the DDA.
Pursuant to the Second Amendment to DDA, Agency has agreed to relieve
Obligor of the requirement that it have each buyer of a moderate income unit execute a
$10,000 promissory note, payable to Agency, and a'$10,000 deed of trust securing the
same, to be recorded as' required in the DDA, provided that: (a) the covenants,
conditions and restrictions contained in Section 611.2 of the DDA ("Agency's CC&R's")
be amended as provided in the Second Amendment to DDA; and (b) before the close of
escrow pertaining to a moderate income unit, Ob!igor shall (i) obtain an
acknowledgment, in form and substance satisfactory to Agency, of Agency's CC&R's,
executed by each buyer of a moderate income unit, and (ii) deliver the original,
executed acknowledgment to Agency for its records, in addition, at the request of
Obligor, Agency, in its sole and absolute discretion, may further amend the DDA if
Agency determines that either (a) moderate income units remain unsaleable due to
Agency's CC&R's, as amended, or (b) Agency's CC&R's, as amended, do not meet
FNMA and/or HUD requirements. Pursuant to such a DDA amendment, Agency may:
(a) further amend Agency's CC&R's, (b) reinstate the note and deed of trust
requirement with respect to moderate income units, whether on the same or different
terms as previously required under the DDA, (c) change the right of first refusal
requirement with respect to moderate income units, and/or (d) require the use of such
other documentation (the "Additional Documentation") with respect to moderate income
units as Agency, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines will assist in Obligor's
sales efforts while preserving Agency's ability to effectively enforce the requirement that
the moderate income units remain owned and occupied by moderate income persons
or families until July 15, 2015. Any such DDA amendment shall be effective upon
' Obligor's receipt and acknowledgment of notice, in the form of an Agency Notice No. 2
re Changes to DDA ("Notice No. 2"), executed by Agency.
The parties have agreed to further amend the Note and Deed of Trust so that the
schedule of incremental Note cancellations and (partial) reconveyances of Deed of
Trust shall be consistent with current DDA requirements concerning sales of moderate
income units. Therefore, the parties further .amend the Note as provided below.
AMENDMENT:
1. Satisfaction and Release. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section IV of the
Note to the contrary, and until such time as Agency may issue a Notice No. 2 which
provides otherwise: (a) Agency waives the following requirements - (i) that each buyer
of a moderate income unit at the Project execute a promissory note in the amount
EXHIBIT "A"
1101-00002
48635_1 Page 2 of 4
provided in Section 404 of the DDA, (ii) that each suCh note be delivered to Agency,
and (iii) that a deed of trust securing each such note be executed and recorded, and (b)
when a moderate income unit is one of the Subsidized Units with respect to which a
partial or full Note cancellation or a partial or complete reconveyance of Deed of Trust is
sought, it shall be an additional condition precedent to such cancellation or
reconveyance that the following requirement be met with respect to such moderate
income unit: before the close of escrow pertaining to a moderate income unit, Obligor
shall (i) obtain an acknowledgment, in form and substance satisfactory to Agency, of
Agency's CC&R's, executed by each buyer of a moderate income unit, and (ii) deliver
the original, executed acknowledgment to Agency for its records. The preceding
sentence may be modified or revoked, or additional requirements for Note cancellation
and Deed of Trust reconveyance may be added, pursuant to a Notice No. 2 issued by
Agency to Obligor, under the terms and conditions described above. The parties agree
to further amend the Note and Deed of Trust, as and if necessary, in order to effectuate
any further DDA amendment as expressed in a Notice No. 2.
2. Security and Priority. Obligor represents and warrants that: (a) as provided
in Section 212 of the DDA, Obligor has not voluntarily encumbered the Project or any
portion thereof, except to the extent that Obligor has conveyed title to any unit at th'e
Project for which Obligor has submitted to Agency, as of the date of this Amendment
No. 2 to Promissory Note, a request for partial reconveyance and the buyer of such unit
has encumbered or permitted the encumbrance of the same (a "Permitted
Encumbrance"), and (b)to the best of Obligor's knowledge, no involuntary liens or
encumbrances have been recorded against the Project, except for Permitted
Encumbrances.
The Deed of Trust, as amended by Deed of Trust Amendment No. I and
Amendment No. 2 to Deed of Trust of even date herewith ("Deed of Trust Amendment
No. 2"), shall continue to secure the performance of the Note, as amended by Note
Amendment No. 1, as further amended herein, and as further amended, modified,
extended or renewed from time to time. It is the intention of the parties that the Deed of
Trust, as amended by the Deed of Trust Amendments Nos. 1 and 2, continue to be a
first deed of trust against the Project, with the same priority vis-a-vis all other monetary
encumbrances against the Project as the priority of the (unamended) Deed of Trust at
the time of its recordation on January 2, 1996. In the event that such priority is
challenged by anY party, Agency shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion,
to declare the Second'Amendment to DDA, Notices Nos. I and/or 2 (if any), Deed of
Trust Amendments Nos. 1 and/or 2, and Note Amendments NoS. 1 and/or 2, to be void,
with the effect that the Note and the Deed of Trust shall be effective as though the
Second Amendment to DDA, Notices Nos. I and/or 2 (if any), Deed of Trust
Amendments Nos. 1 and/or 2 and Note Amendments Nos. I and/or 2, as applicable,
were never executed.

Subsequent to the execution of the Agreement, the Note, and the Deed of Trust,
Trustor requested that Beneficiary agree to amend the Agreement and modify Beneficiary's
financing program pertaining to the sale of units to very-low, Iow and moderate income
buyers at the Project, in order to obtain the approval, of the United States Department of
Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") and/or the Federal National Mortgage
Association, of the secondary financing for the Project: Pursuant to that certain
Amendment No. 1 to Disposition and Development Agreement dated May 30, 1996 ("DDA
Amendment No. 1"), between Trustor and Beneficiary, and that certain Agency Notice No.
1 re Changes to DDA attached to DDA Amendment No. 1 ("Notice No. 1") the parties so
amended the Agreement.
As part of Notice No. 1, the anti-speculation covenants that Beneficiary required to
be contained in the deeds conveying title to the buyers of very-low, Iow and moderate
income units at the Project (the "Subsidized Units") were modified so as to terminate on
foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or assignment of the first deed of trust to HUD, as
more specifically provided in Notice No. 1. In order to protect Beneficiary's investment at
the Project a.nd to help it maintain a supply of affordable housing in the City of Tustin, the
parties agreed, pursuant to Notice No. 1, that'all buyers of Subsidized Units at the Project
shall execute rights of first refusal, in the form of Exhibit A to Notice No. 1 or in such other
form as the parties may subsequently agree in writing (either of such forms being referred
to hereinafter as a "Right of First Refusal"), and such respective Rights of First Refusal
shall be recorded immediately after the deeds conveying title to the respective Subsidized
Units to those buyers and before any deeds of trust or other financing documents are
recorded pertaining to such respective Subsidized Units.
Moreover, pursuant to Notice No. 1, the parties agreed that: (1) the Note shall not
be deemed paid, in whole or in part, until, in addition to the other requirements as set forth
in the Note, a Right of First Refusal has been executed and recorded, in the manner
prOvided above, with respect to each Subsidized Unit the sale of which is a condition
precedent to such deemed payment, and (2) no partial reconveyance of the Deed of Trust
shall be permitted with respect to a Subsidized Unit until, in addition to the other
requirements as set forth in the Deed of Trust, a Right of First Refusal, with respect to
such Subsidized Unit, has been executed and recorded in the manner provided above.
In order to effectuate that agreement, the parties amended the Note pursuant to that
certain Amendment No.1 to Promissory Note dated ., 1996 ("Note Amendment
No. 1"), and amended the Deed of Trust pursuant to that certain Amendment No. 1 to
Deed of Trust dated ..... 1996, executed by Trustor and Beneficiary and recorded
in the official records of the County Recorder of Orange County, California on
,1996 as Instrument Number ("Deed of Trust Amendment No. 1").
Subsequent to the execution of DDA Amendment No. 1, Note Amendment No. 1,
and Deed of Trust Amendment No. 1, Trustor requested that Beneficiary agree to further
amend the Agreement and modify Beneficiary's financing program pertaining to the sale
of moderate income units at the Project, in order to make the financing of moderate income
units more competitive and to increase sales of moderate income units. Pursuant to that
certain Amendment No. 2 to Disposition and Development Agreement dated'

, 1997 ("DDA Amendment No. 2"), between Trustor and Beneficiary, the parties have
so amended the Agreement. · .... .
Pursuant to DDA Amendment No.2, Beneficiary has agreed to relieve Trustor of the
requirement that it have each buyer of-a moderate income unit execute a $10,000
promissory note, payable to Beneficiary, and a $10,000 deed of trust securing the same,
to be recorded as required in the Agreement, provided that: (a) the covenants, conditions
-and restrictions contained in Section 611.2 of the Agreement ("Beneficiary's CC&R's") be
amended as provided in DDA Amendment No. 2; and (b) before the close of escrow
pertaining to a moderate income unit, Trustor shall (i) obtain an acknowledgment, in form
and substance satisfactory to Beneficiary, of Beneficiary's CC&R's, executed by each
buyer of a moderate income unit, and (ii) deliver the original, executed acknowledgment
to Beneficiary for its records, in addition, at the request of Trustor, Beneficiary, in its sole
and absolute discretion, may further amend the Agreement if Beneficiary determines that
either (a) moderate income units remain unsaleable due to Beneficiary's CC&R's, as
amended, or (b) Beneficiary's CC&R's, as amended, do not meet FNMA and/or HUD
requirements. Pursuant to such an amendment of the Aqreement, Beneficiary may: (a)
further amend Beneficiary's CC&R's, (b) reinstate the not~ and deed of trust requirement
with respect to moderate income units, whether on the same or different terms as
previously required under the Agreement, (c) change the Right of First Refusal
requirement with respect to moderate income units, and/or (d) require the use of such
other documentation (the "Additional Documentation") with respect to moderate income
units as Beneficiary, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines will assist in Trustor's
sales efforts while preserving Beneficiary's ability to effectively enforce the requirement
that the moderate income units remain owned and occupied by moderate income persons
or families until July 15, 2015. Any such Agreement amendment shall be effective upon
Trustor's receipt and acknowledgment of notice, in the form of an Agency Notice No. 2 re
Changes to DDA ("Notice No. 2"), executed by Beneficiary.
The parties have agreed to further amend the Note and Deed of Trust so that the
schedule of incremental Note cancellations and (partial) reconveyances of Deed of Trust
shall be consistent with current Agreement requirements concerning sales of moderate
income units. Therefore, the parties are further amending the Note pursuant to an
Amendment No. 2 to Promissory Note of even date herewith ("Note Amendment No. 2")
and hereby further amend the Deed of Trust as provided below.
AMENDMENT:
1. Reconveyances. Section 2 of the Rider attached to the Deed of Trust is hereby
revised to read as follows:
"2. Partial Reconveyances. By its acceptance of this Deed of Trust,
Beneficiary hereby agrees that, provided no notice of default has been recorded
and no condition or event has occurred that would constitute a default upon the
passage of time or the giving of notice, Beneficiary shall give Trustor partial
reconveyances from the lien of this Deed of Trust, on Trustor's written request, of

any portion of the Property constituting a lot or parcel shown on a recorded
subdivision .map covering all or any portion of the Property (either a "Subsidized
Unit" or a "Non-Subsidized Unit" as defined in the note the performance of which
is secured by this Deed of Trust (the "Secured Note")). Reconveyance shall be
conditioned on either of the following:
(a)
the transfer, to a purchaser for value, of title to a Non-Subsidized Unit, by a
deed in the form required by the Agreement as amended from time to time,
or
(b) (i)
the transfer, to a moderate income buyer, a Iow income buyer or a
very-low income buyer, of title to a Subsidized Unit, by a deed in the
form required by the Agreement as amended from time to time,
(ii)
the execution by such a buyer of a note evidencing an Agency
Subsidy Loan (for Moderate Income Households, Low Income
Households or Very-Low Income Households) (a "Subsidy Note") in
the amount required by the terms of the Agreement as amended from
time to time, the delivery of such Subsidy Note to Beneficiary, and the
execution and recordation of a deed of trust securing such Subsidy
Note; provided, however, that if the terms of the Agreement, as
amended from time to time, do not require the execution of a Subsidy
Note and deed of trust by the buyer of a certain Subsidized Unit, then,
in that case, no such Subsidy Note and deed of trust shall be required
as a condition to reconveyance hereunder,
the execution by such a buyer of a right of first refusal, in the form
required by the Agreement, as amended from time to time, and
recorded after the deed conveying title to the buyer of a Subsidized
Unit and before the recordation of any deed of trust or other financing
documents pertaining to such Subsidized Unit,
(iv)
to the extent required by the Agreement, as amended from time to
time, the execution, by each buyer of a Subsidized Unit, of an
acknowledgment, in form and substance satisfactory to Beneficiary,
of the covenants, conditions and restrictions contained in the deed to
such buyer, and the deliyery to Beneficiary, before close of escrow
pertaining to such Subsidized Unit, of the original, executed
acknowledgment pertaining to such Subsidized Unit, and
(v)
the execution, delivery and/or recordation of such Additional
Documentation pertaining to the sale of a Subsidized Unit, on the
terms, and to the extent, as may be required by the Agreement, as

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, there shall be no partial
reconveyance with respect to the one-hundred-forty-fifth unit (whether Subsidized
or Non-Subsidized) to be sold, so as to effectuate the complete reconveyance of
this Deed of Trust, if the Trustor has not then complied with all terms and conditions
of the. Agreement as amended from time to time, the Secured Note, and this Deed
of Trust. A complete reconveyance of this Deed of Trust shall be reCorded
concurrently with the deed transferring title of the one-hundred-forty-fifth unit to a
purchaser, provided that all terms and conditions of the Agreement as amended
from time to time, the Secured Note, and this Deed of Trust have then been
satisfied.
Trustor shall pay all costs of preparing, executing and recording all
documents necessary to accomplish the partial release and reconveyance. With
respect to any partial reconveyance, Trustor further agrees: (a) at Beneficiary's
option, such partial reconveyance shall be conditioned upon Beneficiary receiving,
at Trustor's expense, an endorsement to Beneficiary's title insurance policy, which
insures that the portions of the Property remaining subject to this Deed of Trust
have legal access to a public street; and/or (b) at Beneficiary's option, such partial
reconveyance shall be conditioned upon Beneficiary receiving, at Trustor's
expense, an endorsement to Beneficiary's title insurance policy, which insures that
such partial reconveyance will not adversely affect the priority of this Deed of Trust
with respect to the portions of the Property remaining subject to this Deed of Trust."
2. Priority. Trustor represents and warrants that: (1) as provided in Section 212
of the Agreement, Trustor has not voluntarily encumbered the Project or any portion
thereof, except to the extent that Trustor has conveyed title to any unit at the Project for
which Trustor has submitted to Beneficiary, as of the date of this Amendment No. 2 to
Deed of Trust, a request for partial reconveyance and the buyer of such unit has
encumbered or permitted the encumbrance of the same (a "Permitted Encumbrance"), and
(2) to the best of Trustor's knowledge, no involuntary liens or encumbrances have been
recorded against the Project, except for Permitted Encumbrances.
The Deed of Trust, as amended by Deed of Trust Amendment No. 1 and this
Amendment No. 2 to Deed of Trust ("Deed of Trust Amendment No. 2"), shall continue to
secure the performance of the Note, as amended by Note Amendments Nos. 1 and 2, and
as further amended, modified, extended or renewed from time to time. It is the intention
of the parties that the Deed of Trust, as amended by Deed of Trust Amendments Nos. 1
and 2, continue to be a first deed of trust against the Project, with the same priority vis-a-
vis all other monetary encumbrances against the Project as the priority of the (unamended)
Deed of Trust at the time of its recordation. In the event that such priority is challenged
by any party, Beneficiary shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to declare
DDA Amendment No. 2, Notices Nos. 1 and/or 2 (if any), Note Amendments Nos. 1 and/or
2, and Deed of Trust Amendments Nos. 1 and/or 2, to be void, with the effect that the Note
and the Deed of Trust shall be effective as though DDA Amendment No. 2, Notices Nos.
1 and/or 2, Note Amendments Nos. 1 and/or 2, and Deed of Trust Amendments Nos. 1
and/or 2, as applicable, were never executed.
