17
1619045.3
DocuSign Envelope ID: F2494AF3-FB2B-434F-8DE1-77BBE27CEC67
such other documentation related to the Work as the Director may reasonably request) for an

Developer and the City is terminated and Developer assigns its rights under the Contract to the City
and such assignment is accepted by the City, Subcontractor shall continue to perform its obligations
under the Contract if the City is substituted in place of Developer; provided, however, that the City

of the Contract pursuant to subsection (f) above, the City shall not be bound by any obligations owed
by Developer to Subcontractor under this Contract.
(h) Compliance with Law. Subcontractor shall be required to comply with all applicable
laws, ordinances and regulations in its performance of Work on any Improvement, including but not

at any tier, or their respective officers, employees or agents.
0) Warranties. Subcontractor represents and warrants to Developer that any materials,
supplies, products and equipment furnished under this Contract will be new unless otherwise
specified, and that any of the Work will be of good workmanship and quality, free from faults and
defects and in strict conformance with the Contract Documents, the standards in the industry, all
applicable laws, ordinances and regulation, including without limitation the Uniform Building Code,
and any manufacturer's recommendations. Any of the Work not conforming to same may be
considered defective. If required by Developer, in Developer's sole discretion, Subcontractor shall
furnish satisfactory evidence as to the kind and quality of such materials, supplies, products and
equipment. If any manufacturer or supplier of any such materials, supplies, products or equipment
furnishes a guarantee or warranty for a period in excess of one year from final completion, then
Subcontractor's warranty pursuant to this Article shall be deemed to extend to it for a like period.
1619045.3
DocuSign Envelope ID: F2494AF3-FB2B-434F-8DE1-77BBE27CEC67
Prior to final completion of the Work, Subcontractor shall deliver to Developer copies of any
guarantees and warranties relating to the Project, together with duly executed instruments properly
assigning same to Developer. Subcontractor shall bind copies of the guarantees and warranties
together in a single volume, grouped by trade and properly indexed. Subcontractor shall assign to
Developer or any purchaser from or assignee of Developer the guarantees and warranties of
Subcontractor's Sub -subcontractors, suppliers and representatives and any other rights of any kind
against any Persons. Such assignment will not relieve Subcontractor of any of its other obligations
contained in the Contract Documents. No Final Acceptance by Developer or the City shall operate as
a waiver or release with respect to any warranties applicable to the Work or the Improvements or any
rights or remedies pertaining thereto.
Subcontractor warrants that any and all portions of the Work will be free from any defects in
material and workmanship for a period of one year from the Date of Acceptance of the Improvement
by the City, which warranty shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Contract. As
part of the warranty, Subcontractor agrees to commence the repair or replacement of any defective
material or equipment and the performance of related labor necessary to correct any such defect in
the Work within three days after receipt of notice of the defect and thereafter to diligently prosecute
any corrective work to completion, all at Subcontractor's sole cost and expense. Upon failure of
Subcontractor to do so, Developer may, in Developer's reasonable discretion, furnish or secure any
materials and labor necessary to correct any defect. Any loss caused by said failure of Subcontractor,
including without limitation compensation for additional professional services, shall be at
Subcontractor's sole cost and expense.
Nothing in the Contract Documents shall in any way limit the right of Developer to assert
claims for patent or latent defects in the Work or loss caused by them for the longest applicable period
of limitations prescribed by California law. Nothing in the Contract Documents shall be construed to
establish a period of limitation with respect to any other obligation of Subcontractor or claim of
Developer under the Contract Documents.
Subcontractor acknowledges and agrees that prior to Final Acceptance of any Improvement
by Developer, that Developer shall assign to the City any and all warranties or guarantees which
Subcontractor is required to provide or obtain pursuant to the Construction Contract, including, but
not limited to, Sub -subcontractors and manufacturers, and Contractor agrees to perform the Work in
such a manner so as to preserve any and all such warranties. The above warranties and guarantees
shall remain in effect for a period of one (1) year commencing from the date of Final Acceptance of
the Work by the City.

EXHIBIT K
SUBCONTRACTOR INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
Prior to commencement of any Work under this Contract, Subcontractor shall, at Subcontractor's
sole cost, comply with the following insurance requirements:
1. General Requirements.
a. Carrier Requirements. All insurance to be carried by Subcontractor will be maintained
by Subcontractor at its cost with insurance carriers approved to do business in California, having a
general policyholders rating of not less than an "A" and financial rating of not less than "VIII" as
currently rated by A.M. Best Company, or such other ratings as agreed upon in writing by Developer
in Developer's Discretion.
b. Insurance Limits; No Limitation of Liability. Subcontractor may provide the required
insurance in whole or in part through a policy or policies covering other liabilities and projects of
Subcontractor; provided, however, that any such policy or policies shall satisfy all of the requirements
set forth in this Exhibit, including the endorsements described below. The required insurance limits
stated in this Insurance Exhibit are minimum limits. Nothing contained in this Exhibit is to be
construed as limiting the type, quality or quantity of insurance Subcontractor should maintain for its
own protection. The carrying of insurance as specified herein shall not be construed to limit
Subcontractor's liability under the Construction Contract or as a matter of Law. Nothing in this
Insurance Exhibit shall be deemed to place any responsibility on Developer for ensuring that the
required coverages are sufficient for the conduct of Subcontractor's business.
C. Evidence of Insurance. As evidence of the insurance required by this Insurance
Exhibit, and except as otherwise provided below, Developer will accept certificates of insurance from
Subcontractor's insurance broker (and, where required below, endorsements from Subcontractor's
insurance carrier) and other evidence of insurance acceptable to Developer, in Developer's sole
discretion, showing the required coverages for the applicable insurance required of Subcontractor and
Subcontractor's officers, employees, agents, representatives, as well as any Sub -subcontractor
performing any portion of the Work for or on behalf of Subcontractor (collectively, "Subcontractor's
Representatives") in force for the specified periods. Developer has the right to obtain certified
policies from Subcontractor and Subcontractor's Representatives and their insurance carriers as
Developer in its sole discretion deems necessary. Such evidence shall be delivered to Developer
promptly upon execution of this Contract, or prior to commencement of Work, whichever earliest
occurs, and show specifically the amount of the deductible or SIR under each policy. Each policy,
certificate and endorsement shall be subject to approval by Developer in its sole discretion.
d. Changes in Coverage. In no event will any insurance required hereunder be amended
or reformed or rescinded or terminated or otherwise changed or allowed to lapse prior to the earlier
of the completion of the Work pursuant to the provisions of this Contract or termination of the
Contract or such longer period as may be specified in this Exhibit. Insurer endorsements (or a copy
of the policy binder, if applicable) shall specifically identify this Contract and shall provide: that said
insurance shall not be cancelled except if Subcontractor is given at least thirty (30) days advance
written notice of any cancellation or termination of insurance. The foregoing requirement may also
be satisfied upon provision of evidence by the insurer that Subcontractor has paid for its premium in
1619045.3
DocuSign Envelope ID: F2494AF3-FB2B-434F-8DE1-77BBE27CEC67
full for any policy that is currently in place. In the event (i) any policy expires or is canceled before
the expiration of this Contract, or (ii) any policy is amended so that the required coverages are reduced
or otherwise changed to the detriment of Developer or any named insured, Subcontractor shall
immediately bring such insurance into compliance with the requirements of this Contract and deliver
new certificates and endorsements (and policies, if requested by Developer) to Developer upon the

related permits ("Development Limitation") during the Term, the Parties understand and agree that
various third parties may take action causing a de facto Development Limitation. Consequently,
the Term and the obligations imposed pursuant to this Agreement and the expiration date of all
Applicable Approvals shall be extended day for day for any delay arising from or related to a
timely filed lawsuit challenging the validity or legality of the Adopting Ordinance, this Agreement,
and/or any of the Applicable Approvals, until the date on which said challenge is finally resolved
in favor of the validity or legality of the Adopting Ordinance, this Agreement, and/or the

any tolling(s) of the Term, pursuant to Section 2.3.3 of the Agreement; or (ii) the issuance of one

within 180 days following the Effective Date ("Fee Title Deadline"), Developer or City may elect,
in each Party's sole and absolute discretion, and upon written notice to the other Party within sixty
(60) days following the Fee Title Deadline, to terminate this Agreement and the Applicable
Approvals. Effective upon such termination by either Party, this Agreement and the Applicable
Approvals shall be of no further force or effect.
3. Development of Project.
3.1 Utilization of Residential Allocation Reservation: Pulling Permits and
Commencement of Construction.
Following final approval of RAR 2020-0001 and the Applicable Approvals, i.e.,
Effective Date, all construction related permits for the Project, including demolition, grading, and
building permits, must be obtained within 180 days ("First Post Entitlement Period"). Following
building permit issuance, construction must commence within 180 days. Time extensions may be
considered at the discretion of the City of Tustin Community Development Director ("Director").
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Director hereby agrees to automatically extend the time frame
of the First Post Entitlement Period an additional 360 days if Developer pulls a demolition and
precise grading permit prior to the expiration of the First Post Entitlement Period. Developer's
precise grading permit application shall comply with all requirements specified in Tustin
Municipal Code section 8909. City shall act in good faith to issue the precise grading permit within
90 days of Developer's precise grading application, provided Developer submits a complete
application and is responsive to corrections. If the application is incomplete and requires
corrections, the Director will notify Developer in writing of the remaining items or corrections and
specify a timeline for Developer to respond to outstanding corrections ("Correction Notice").
Concurrently with the Correction Notice, and any subsequent Correction Notice(s), the First Post
Entitlement Period deadline shall be automatically extended by thirty (30) days. The allocation of
the 114 base residential units to the Project shall expire and the units redeposited into the
Residential Allocation Bank for use by other projects if the construction related permits are not
obtained within the required time limits or approved for extension; or the permits are not utilized,
as evidenced by the commencement of construction, within 180 days following issuance of the
permits.
3.2 Development Regulations, Developer's Vested Rights and City's Reservation of
Discretion With Respect to Subsequent Development Approvals.
3.2.1 Other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement, during the Term of this
Agreement, (i) Developer shall have the vested right to Develop the Project on and with respect to
the Property in accordance with the terms of the Development Regulations, the Applicable
Approvals, the Workforce Plan and this Agreement and (ii) City shall not prohibit or prevent
development of the Property on grounds inconsistent with the Development Regulations or this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein is intended to limit or restrict City's
discretion with respect to (i) review and approval requirements contained in the Development
Regulations, (ii) exercise of any discretionary authority City retains under the Development
Regulations, (iii) the approval, conditional approval, or denial of any Subsequent Development
Approvals that are required for Development of the Project as of the Effective Date, or (iv) any
environmental approvals that may be required under CEQA or any other federal or state law or
regulation in conjunction with any Subsequent Development Approvals that may be required for

the Project, and in this regard, as to future actions referred to in clauses (i) -(iv) of this sentence,
City reserves its full discretion to the same extent City would have such discretion in the absence
of this Agreement. In addition, it is understood and agreed that nothing in this Agreement is
intended to vest Developer's rights with respect to any laws, regulations, rules, or official policies
of any other governmental agency or public utility company with jurisdiction over the Property or
the Project; or any applicable federal or state laws, regulations, rules, or official policies that may
be inconsistent with this Agreement and that override or supersede the provisions set forth in this
Agreement, and regardless of whether such overriding or superseding laws, regulations, rules, or
official policies are adopted or applied to the Property or the Project prior or subsequent to the date
on which the City Council approves the Adopting Ordinance. Concerning any denials of any
Subsequent Development Approvals, the City shall base such denials solely upon an application
of the Development Regulations, the Applicable Approvals or this Agreement.
3.2.2 Developer has expended and will continue to expend substantial amounts
of time and money planning and preparing for Development of the Project. Developer represents
and City acknowledges that Developer would not make these expenditures without this
Agreement, and that Developer is and will be making these expenditures in reasonable reliance
upon its vested rights to Develop the Project as set forth in this Agreement.
3.2.3 Developer may apply to City for permits or approvals necessary to modify
or amend the Development specified in the Development Regulations, provided that the request
does not propose an increase in the maximum density, intensity, height, or size of proposed
structures, or a change in use that generates more peak hour traffic or more daily traffic and, in
addition, Developer may apply to City for approval of minor amendments to existing tentative
tract maps, tentative parcel maps, or associated conditions of approval, consistent with the Tustin
City Code. This Agreement does not constitute a promise or commitment by City to approve any
such permit or approval, or to approve the same with or without any particular requirements or
conditions, and City's discretion with respect to such matters shall be the same as it would be in
the absence of this Agreement.
3.3 Other Governmental or Quasi -Governmental Permits.
Developer shall apply for such other permits and approvals as may be required by non -City
governmental or quasi -governmental agencies having regulatory jurisdiction over the Project (such
as public utilities or special districts, or other federal or state resource agencies) to the extent
required for the development of, or provision of, services and facilities to the Project as set forth
in the Development Plan. The City shall cooperate with and assist Developer in obtaining such
permits and approvals, and, where necessary in making application for such approvals or permits.
Developer shall be solely responsible for all costs and shall be responsible for the processing of all
such permits.
3.4 No Conflicting Enactments.
Except to the extent City reserves its discretion as expressly set forth in this Agreement
(including, without limitation, as set forth in Section 3.5 and Article 4 of this Agreement), during
the Term of this Agreement, the City shall not apply to the Project or the Property any ordinance,
policy, rule, regulation, or other measure relating to Development of the Project that is enacted or
becomes effective after the Agreement Date to the extent it conflicts with this Agreement. In

Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo (1984) 37 Cal.3d 465, the California Supreme Court
held that a construction company was not exempt from a city's growth control ordinance even
though the city and construction company had entered into a consent judgment (tantamount to a
contract under California law) establishing the company's vested rights to develop its property
consistent with the zoning. The California Supreme Court reached this result because the consent
judgment failed to address the timing of development. The Parties intend to avoid the result of the
Pardee case by acknowledging and providing in this Agreement that Developer shall have the
vested right to Develop the Project on and with respect to the Property at the rate, timing, and
sequencing that Developer deems appropriate within the exercise of Developer's sole subjective
business judgment, provided that such Development occurs in accordance with this Agreement,
the Applicable Approvals and the Development Regulations, notwithstanding adoption by City's
electorate of an initiative to the contrary after the Agreement Date. No City moratorium or other
similar limitation relating to the rate, timing, or sequencing of the Development of all or any part
of the Project and whether enacted by initiative or another method, affecting subdivision maps,
building permits, occupancy certificates, or other entitlement to use, shall apply to the Project to
the extent such moratorium or other similar limitation restricts Developer's vested rights in this
Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the express provisions of this Agreement.
3.5 Reservations of Authority.
Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, the laws,
rules, regulations, and official policies set forth in this Section 3.5 shall apply to and govern the
Development of the Project on and with respect to the Property.
3.5.1 Procedural Regulations. Procedural regulations relating to hearing bodies,
petitions, applications, notices, findings, records, hearings, reports, recommendations, appeals, and
any other matter of procedure shall apply to the Property, provided that such procedural regulations
are adopted and applied City-wide or to all other properties similarly situated in City.
3.5.2 Processing and Permit Fees. City shall have the right to charge and
Developer shall be required to pay (a) all applicable processing and permit fees to cover the
reasonable cost to City of (i) processing and reviewing applications and plans for any Applicable
Approvals, Subsequent Development Approvals, building permits, excavation and grading
permits, encroachment permits, plan checking, site review and approval, administrative review,
and similar fees imposed to recover City's costs associated with processing, reviewing, and
inspecting Project applications, plans and specifications, (ii) inspecting the work constructed or
installed by or on behalf of Developer, and (iii) monitoring compliance with any requirements
applicable to Development of the Project, in each case at the rates in effect at the time fees are due
and (b) all costs incurred by the City performance of necessary studies and reports in connection
with the foregoing and its obligations under this Agreement (collectively, the "City Processing
Fees").
3.5.3 Consistent Future City Regulations. City ordinances, resolutions,
regulations, and official policies governing Development which do not conflict with the
Development Regulations, or with respect to such regulations that do conflict, where Developer
has consented in writing to the regulations, shall apply to the Property.

8127121
3.5.4 Development Exactions Applicable to Property. During the Term of this
Agreement, unless otherwise prohibited or limited under state law, Developer shall be required to
satisfy and pay all Development Exactions at the time performance or payment is due to the same
extent and in the same amount(s) that would apply to Developer and the Project in the absence of
this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent the scope and extent of a particular
Development Exaction for the Project has been established and fixed by City in this Agreement or
the conditions of approval for any of the Applicable Approvals or Development Regulations
approved on or before the Effective Date, the City shall not alter, increase, or modify said
Development Exaction in a manner that is inconsistent with such Development Regulations
without Developer's prior written consent or as may be otherwise required pursuant to overriding
federal or state laws or regulations (Section 3.5.5 hereinbelow). Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be deemed to vest
Developer against the obligation to pay any of the following (which are specifically excluded from
the definition of "Development Exactions") in the full amount that would apply in the absence of
this Agreement: (i) City's normal fees for processing, environmental assessment and review,
tentative tract and parcel map review, plan checking, site review and approval, administrative
review, building permit, grading permit, inspection, and similar fees imposed to recover City's
costs associated with processing, reviewing, and inspecting project applications, plans, and
specifications; (ii) fees and charges levied by any other public agency, utility, district, or joint
powers authority, regardless of whether City collects those fees and charges; or (iii) community
facility district special taxes or special district assessments or similar assessments, business license
fees, bonds or other security required for public improvements, transient occupancy taxes, sales
taxes, property taxes, sewer lateral connection fees, water service connection fees, new water meter
fees, park fees and the New Construction Tax (as described in Section 2601 of the Tustin City
Code.)
3.5.5 Overriding Federal and State Laws and Regulations. Federal and state laws
and regulations that override Developer's vested rights set forth in this Agreement shall apply to
the Property, together with any City ordinances, resolutions, regulations, and official policies that
are necessary to enable City to comply with the provisions of any such overriding federal or state
laws and regulations, provided that (i) Developer does not waive its right to challenge or contest
the validity of any such purportedly overriding federal, state, or City law or regulation; and (ii)
upon the discovery of any such overriding federal, state, or City law or regulation that prevents or
precludes compliance with any provision of this Agreement, City or Developer shall provide to
the other Party a written notice identifying the federal, state, or City law or regulation, together
with a copy of the law or regulation and a brief written statement of the conflict(s) between that
law or regulation and the provisions of this Agreement. Promptly thereafter City and Developer
shall meet and confer in good faith in a reasonable attempt to determine whether a modification or
suspension of this Agreement, in whole or in part, is necessary to comply with such overriding
federal, state, or City law or regulation. In such negotiations, City and Developer agree to preserve
the terms of this Agreement and the rights of Developer as derived from this Agreement to the
maximum feasible extent while resolving the conflict. City agrees to cooperate with Developer at
no cost to City in resolving the conflict in a manner which minimizes any financial impact of the
conflict upon Developer. City also agrees to process in a prompt manner Developer's proposed
changes to the Project and any of the Development Regulations as may be necessary to comply
with such overriding federal, state, or City law or regulation; provided, however, that the approval

of such changes by City shall be subject to the sole discretion of City, consistent with this
Agreement.
3.5.6 Public Health and Safety. Any City ordinance, resolution, rule, regulation,
program, or official policy that is necessary to protect persons on the Property or in the immediate
vicinity from conditions dangerous to their health or safety, as reasonably determined by City,
shall apply to the Property, even though the application of the ordinance, resolution, rule
regulation, program, or official policy would result in the impairment of Developer's vested rights
under this Agreement.
3.5.7 Uniform Building Standards. Existing and future building and building -
related standards set forth in the uniform codes adopted by City and any local amendments to those
codes adopted by the City, including without limitation building, plumbing, mechanical, electrical,
housing, swimming pool, and fire codes, and any modifications and amendments thereof shall all
apply to the Project and the Property to the same extent that the same would apply in the absence
of this Agreement.
3.5.8 Public Works Improvements. To the extent Developer constructs or installs
any public improvements, works, or facilities, the City standards in effect for such public
improvements, works, or facilities at the time of City's issuance of a permit, license, or other
authorization for construction or installation of same shall apply.
3.5.9 No Guarantee or Reservation of Utility Capacity. Notwithstanding any
other provision set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement is intended
or shall be interpreted to require City to guarantee or reserve to or for the benefit of Developer or
the Property any utility capacity, service, or facilities that may be needed to serve the Project,
whether domestic or reclaimed water service, sanitary sewer transmission or wastewater treatment
capacity, downstream drainage capacity, or otherwise, and City shall have the right to limit or
restrict Development of the Project if and to the extent that City reasonably determines that
inadequate utility capacity exists to adequately serve the Project at the time Development is
scheduled to commence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, City covenants to provide utility services
to the Project on a non-discriminatory basis (i.e., on the same terms and conditions that City
undertakes to provide such services to other similarly situated new developments in the City of
Tustin as and when service connections are provided and service commences).
4. Public Benefits
4.1 Provision of Public Benefits.
Developer shall provide the following public benefits which shall constitute additional

with this Section 4.14. If the Parties agree upon the Public Art, the Public Art shall be completed
prior to issuance of the Project's final certificate of occupancy.
4.1.5 Park Impact Fees. Pursuant to the provisions of the Tustin Municipal Code,
Developer is obligated to pay park impact fees. City agrees that it shall use good faith efforts to
invest the park fees paid by Developer to fund improvements to Pine Tree Park, Frontier Park

specified in the Density Bonus and Voluntary Workforce Housing Incentive Agreement between
the Parties, City agrees that it shall not collect park fees from Developer for the 6 Very Low income
housing units of the Project.
4.2 Effect of Public Benefits Default.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any payment
under this Article 4 is not made or any obligation requiring performance is not timely performed
by Developer. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.1 of this Agreement, the City may withhold
further issuance of building permits or other approvals, including final maps, for the Project and
the Property, until such time as Developer has made the required payment or undertaken the

the date the Effective Date) shall pay City a reasonable fee in an amount City may reasonably

failure to timely provide or conduct an annual review shall not constitute a Default hereunder by
City.

During each annual review by City, Developer is required to demonstrate good faith
compliance with the terms of the Agreement. Developer agrees to furnish such evidence of good
faith compliance as City, in the reasonable exercise of its discretion, may require, thirty (30) days

The City shall conduct its annual review of the Agreement in accordance with Tustin City
Code Section 9617, as the same may be amended from time to time.
6.4 Annual Review a Non -Exclusive Means for Determining and Requiring Cure of

The annual review procedures set forth in this Article 6 shall not be the exclusive means
for City to identify a Default by Developer or limit City's rights or remedies for any such Default.
7. Events of Default.
7.1 General Provisions.
In the event of any default, breach, or violation of the terms of this Agreement ("Default'),
the Party alleging a Default shall have the right to deliver a written notice (each, a "Notice of
Default") to the defaulting Party. The Notice of Default shall specify the nature of the alleged
Default and a reasonable manner and sufficient period of time (ten (10) days if the Default relates
to the failure to timely make a monetary payment due hereunder and thirty (30) days in the event
of non -monetary Defaults) in which the Default must be cured (the "Cure Period"). Developer or
City, as applicable, shall have the ability to contest the validity of the Default for a period of five
(5) days after Developer or City receives the written Notice of Default. The Parties shall meet and

period, the Cure Period timeframes specified in this Section 7.1 shall apply During the Cure Period,
the Party charged shall not be considered in Default for the purposes of termination of this
Agreement or institution of legal proceedings. If the alleged Default is cured within the Cure
Period, then the Default thereafter shall be deemed not to exist. If however, a non -monetary
Default cannot be cured within such thirty (30) day period, as long as the defaulting Party does
each of the following:
i. notifies the non -defaulting Party in writing with a reasonable
explanation as to the reasons the asserted Default is not curable within the thirty (30) day period;
ii. notifies the non -defaulting Party in writing of the defaulting Party's
proposed course of action to cure the Default;
iii. promptly commences to cure the Default within the thirty (30) day
period;
iv. makes periodic written reports to the non -defaulting Party as to the
progress of the program of cure; and
V. diligently prosecutes such cure to completion,
then the non -defaulting Party shall grant in writing the defaulting Party such additional time as
determined by the non -defaulting party as reasonably necessary to cure such Default.
7.2 City's Remedies.
In the event of a Default by Developer under this Agreement that is not cured during the
Cure Period, City shall be entitled to any or all of the following remedies: (1) Seeking mandamus
or special writs, injunctive relief, or specific performance of this Agreement; (2) Modifications or
termination of this Agreement; or (3) Seeking any other remedy available at law or in equity,
provided, however, except as provided in Section 7.7 below with respect to recovery of legal
expenses, City agrees and covenants on behalf of itself and it successors and assigns, not to sue
Developer for damages or monetary relief for any breach of this Agreement or arising out of or
connected with any dispute, controversy or issue regarding the application or effect of this
Agreement, or for general, special, compensatory, expectation, anticipation, indirect,
consequential, exemplary or punitive damages ("Damages") arising out of or connected with any
dispute, controversy, or issues regarding the application or effect of this Agreement, the Applicable
Approvals, the Development Plan, the Development Regulations, any Subsequent Development
Approvals, or any permits or entitlements sought in connection with development or use of the
Property or Project, or any portion thereof. City acknowledges that Developer would not have
entered into this Agreement if Developer could be held liable for Damages for any default or
breach arising out of this Agreement and that City has adequate remedies other than Damages, to
secure Developer's compliance with its obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, City agrees
that Developer, its officers, employees and agents shall not be liable for any Damages and that this
Section shall apply to any successor, assignee or transferee of the Developer. The limitation of
Damages specified in this Section 7.3 does not preclude City from recovering from Developer all
costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, specified in Section 7.7 of this Agreement.
Furthermore, City, in addition to or as an alternative to exercising the remedies in this Section 7.2,
1596301.2

in the event of a material default by Developer, may give notice of its intent to terminate or modify
this Agreement pursuant to Tustin City Code Section 9618, in which event the matter shall be
scheduled for consideration and review by the City Council. The decision of the City Council
shall be final, subject only to judicial review pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure
Section 1094.5(b).
7.3 Developer's Remedies.
In the event of a Default by that City under this Agreement that is not cured during the
Cure Period, Developer shall be entitled to any or all of the following remedies: (1) Seeking
mandamus or special writs, injunctive relief, or specific performance of this Agreement;
(2) Modifications or termination of this Agreement; or (3) Seeking any other remedy available at
law or in equity, provided, however, except as provided in Section 7.7 below with respect to
recovery of legal expenses, Developer agrees and covenants on behalf of itself and it successors
and assigns, not to sue City for damages or monetary relief for any breach of this Agreement or
arising out of or connected with any dispute, controversy or issue regarding the application or
effect of this Agreement, or for general, special, compensatory, expectation, anticipation, indirect,
consequential, exemplary or punitive damages ("Damages") arising out of or connected with any
dispute, controversy, or issues regarding the application or effect of this Agreement, the Applicable
Approvals, the Development Plan, the Development Regulations, any Subsequent Development
Approvals, or any permits or entitlements sought in connection with development or use of the
Property or Project, or any portion thereof. Developer acknowledges that City would not have
entered into this Agreement if City could be held liable for Damages for any default or breach
arising out of this Agreement and that Developer has adequate remedies other than Damages, to
secure City's compliance with its obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, Developer agrees
that City, its officers, employees and agents shall not be liable for any Damages and that this
Section shall apply to any successor, assignee or transferee of the Developer. The limitation of
Damages specified in this Section 7.3 does not preclude Developer from City all costs and
expenses, including attorneys' fees, specified in Section 7.7 of this Agreement.
7.4 Waiver.
Failure or delay by either Party in delivering a Notice of Default shall not waive that Party's
right to deliver a future Notice of Default of the same or any other Default.

In the event of any Default by Developer, in addition to any other remedies which may be
available to City, whether legal or equitable, City shall be entitled to receive and retain any
Development Exactions applicable to the Project or the Property, including any fees, grants,
dedications, or improvements to public property which it may have received prior to Developer's
Default without recourse from Developer or its successors or assigns.
7.6 No Personal Liability of City or Developer Officials, Employees, or Agents.
No City or Developer official, employee, or agent shall have any personal liability
hereunder for a Default by City or Developer of any of its obligations set forth in this Agreement.

7.7 Recovery of Legal Expenses by Prevailing Pa . in Any Action.
In any judicial proceeding, arbitration, or mediation (collectively, an "Action") between
the Parties that seeks to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or arises out of this Agreement,
the prevailing Party shall recover all of its actual and reasonable costs and expenses, regardless of
whether they would be recoverable under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1033.5 or
California Civil Code Section 1717 in the absence of this Agreement. These costs and expenses
include court costs, expert witness fees, attorneys' fees, and costs of investigation and preparation
before initiation of the Action. The right to recover these costs and expenses shall accrue upon
initiation of the Action, regardless of whether the Action is prosecuted to a final judgment or
decision. The maximum hourly rate for attorneys which are recoverable under this Section 7.7 is
$200/hour.
8. Force Majeure.
Neither Party shall be deemed to be in Default where failure or delay in performance of
any of its obligations under this Agreement is caused, through no fault of the Party whose
performance is prevented or delayed, by floods, earthquakes, other acts of God, fires, wars, riots
or similar hostilities, strikes or other labor difficulties, state or federal regulations or court actions.
Except as specified above, nonperformance shall not be excused because of the act or omission of
a third person. Performance by any Party of its obligations hereunder shall be excused and the
required date for performance thereof shall be extended day for day during any period of
"Permitted Delay" as hereinafter defined. For purposes hereof, Permitted Delay shall mean delay
beyond the reasonable control and without the fault of the Party claiming the delay (and despite
the good faith efforts of such Party). Any Party claiming a Permitted Delay shall notify the other
Party (or Parties) in writing of such delay within 30 days after the commencement of the delay,
which notice shall specify the nature and estimated length of the Permitted Delay ("Permitted
Delay Notice"). An extension of time hereunder for any Permitted Delay shall be for the period of
the Permitted Delay and shall be deemed granted if the Party receiving the Permitted Delay Notice
does not object to such extension in writing, as not complying with the provisions of this Section,
within 15 days after receiving the Permitted Delay Notice. Upon such an objection, the Parties
shall meet and confer within 30 days after the date of the objection in a good faith effort to resolve
their disagreement as to the existence and length of the Permitted Delay.
9. Indemnity Obligations of Developer.
9.1 Indemnity Arising From Acts or Omissions of Developer.
Except to the extent caused by the intentional misconduct or actively negligent acts, errors
or omissions of City or one or more of City's officials, employees, agents, attorneys and
contractors (collectively, the "City's Affiliated Parties"), Developer shall indemnify, defend, and
hold harmless City and City's Affiliated Parties from and against all actions, suits, claims,
liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, obligations and expenses (including but not limited to
attorneys' fees, expert witness fees and court costs) (collectively, a "Claim") that may arise,
directly or indirectly, from the acts, omissions, or operations of Developer or Developer's officers,

Project or any other activities of Developer relating to the Property or pursuant to this Agreement.
City shall have the right to select and retain counsel to defend any Claim filed against City and/or
1596301.2

any of City's Affiliated Parties, and Developer shall pay the reasonable cost for defense of any
Claim. The indemnity provisions in this Section 9.1 shall be effective on the date on which the
Adopting Ordinance is approved by the City Council and shall survive the Termination Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Developer's indemnity obligations specified in this Section 9.1
regarding Developer's design, construction or dedication of public improvements shall terminate
one (1) year after City accepts Developer's offer of dedication of public improvements.
9.2 Third Pa . Litigation.
In addition to its indemnity obligations set forth in Section 9. 1, Developer shall indemnify,
defend, and hold harmless City and City's Affiliated Parties from and against any Claim against
City or City's Affiliated Parties seeking to attack, set aside, void, or annul the approval of this
Agreement, the Adopting Ordinance, the Development Plan, any of the Development Regulations
for the Project (including without limitation any actions taken pursuant to CEQA with respect
thereto), any Subsequent Development Approval, or the approval of any permit or entitlement
granted pursuant to this Agreement. Said indemnity obligation shall include, without limitation,
payment of attorney's fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. City shall promptly notify
Developer of any such Claim and City shall cooperate with Developer in the defense of such
Claim. City shall be entitled to retain separate counsel to represent City against the Claim and the
City's defense costs for its separate counsel shall be included in Developer's indemnity obligation,
provided that such counsel shall reasonably cooperate with Developer in an effort to minimize the
total litigation expenses incurred by Developer. City's separate counsel's billing rates shall be
identical to the rates City pays for its typical municipal litigation rates for legal challenges of the
variety being defended. Provided that Developer has then paid in full all sums due to the City or
its counsel incurred pursuant to this Section and otherwise fully performed its indemnity
obligations hereunder, Developer shall be entitled to retain the same. The indemnity provisions in
this Section 9.2 shall be effective on the date on which the Adopting Ordinance is approved by the
City Council and shall survive the Termination Date.

Developer's Development of the Project. The aforementioned indemnity shall not apply (i) to any
pre-existing Hazardous Substance which may have existed prior to Developer's acquiring fee
simple title to the Property; (ii) if City was responsible for the creation of the Hazardous Substance;
or (iii) if the City had prior actual knowledge of the existence of the Hazardous Substance as of
the date of the Effective Date. The indemnity provisions in this Section 9.3 shall be effective on

conformity with all Development Regulations including all applicable federal and state labor laws
and regulations and shall investigate the applicability of and, if and to the extent applicable, pay

contractors, successors and assigns free and harmless from and against any and all Claims arising

10. Assignment.
10.1 Permitted Transfers.
Developer shall have the right, upon approval of City, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, to sell, transfer or assign (hereinafter, collectively, a "Transfer")
Developer's interest in this Agreement and the Property, in whole or in part, to a third party
acquiring an interest or estate in the Property or any portion thereof (such successor, a "Permitted
Transferee") and such successor, as of the effective date of the Transfer, shall become the
"Developer" under this Agreement; provided, however, that no such Transfer shall violate the
provisions of the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Section 66410 et seq.) or City's local
subdivision ordinance and each Transfer shall be made in strict compliance with the conditions
precedent set forth in Sections 10.2 and 10.3. City shall promptly consider any Transfer request
submitted by Developer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Developer shall have the right to Transfer
its interest in the Agreement to a "Developer Affiliate". A "Developer Affiliate" is an entity or
person that is directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with
Developer. In the case of a Transfer to a Developer Affiliate, Developer shall provide written
notification to City prior to the completion of such a Transfer.

Prior to the completion of any proposed Transfer, Developer (as transferor) shall:
i. notify City, in writing, of such proposed Transfer and, in order to
permit the City to make an informed decision to approve or disapprove the Transfer, provide to
the City such financial statements and evidence of the proposed Transferee's fitness, experience
and ability (or that of its senior managerial personnel) to comply with the obligations assumed;
and
1596301.2
DocuSign Envelope ID: F2494AF3-FB2B-434F-8DE1-77BBE27CEC67
DRAFT
8127121
ii. deliver to City a written assignment and assumption, executed in
recordable form by the transferring and successor Developer and in a form subject to the
reasonable approval of the City Attorney of City (or designee), pursuant to which the transferring
Developer assigns to the successor Developer and the successor Developer assumes from the
transferring Developer all of the rights and obligations of the transferring Developer with respect
to the Property, or interest in the Property, or portion thereof to be so Transferred, including in the
case of a partial Transfer the obligation to perform such obligations that must be performed outside
of the Property so Transferred that are a condition precedent to the successor Developer's right to
develop the portion of the Property so Transferred. Any Permitted Transferee shall have all of the
same rights, benefits, duties, obligations, and liabilities of Developer under this Agreement with
respect to the portion of, or interest in, the Property sold, transferred, and assigned to such
Permitted Transferee; provided, however, that in the event of a Transfer of less than all of the
Property, or interest in the Property, no such Permitted Transferee shall have the right to enter into
an amendment of this Agreement that jeopardizes or impairs the rights or increases the obligations
of the Developer with respect to the balance of the Property.
10.3 Ongoing Liability of Transferor.
Notwithstanding any Transfer, the transferring Developer shall continue to be jointly and
severally liable to City, together with the successor Developer, to perform all of the transferred
obligations set forth in or arising under this Agreement unless there is full satisfaction of all of the
following conditions, in which event the transferring Developer shall be automatically released
from any and all obligations with respect to the portion of the Property so Transferred: (i) the
transferring Developer no longer has a legal or equitable interest in the portion of the Property so
Transferred other than as a beneficiary under a deed of trust; (ii) the transferring Developer is not
then in Default under this Agreement and no condition exists that with the passage of time or the
giving of notice, or both, would constitute a Default hereunder; (iii) the transferring Developer has
provided City with the notice and the fully executed written and recordable assignment and
assumption agreement required as set forth in Section 10.2(b); and (iv) the successor Developer
either (A) provides City with substitute security equivalent to any security previously provided by
the transferring Developer to City to secure performance of the successor Developer's obligations
hereunder with respect to the Property, or interest in the Property, or the portion of the Property so
Transferred or (B) if the transferred obligation in question is not a secured obligation, the successor
Developer either provides security reasonably satisfactory to City or otherwise demonstrates to
City's reasonable satisfaction that the successor Developer has the financial resources or
commitments available to perform the transferred obligation at the time and in the manner required
under this Agreement and the Development Regulations for the Project. In the case of partial
Transfers, a default under this Agreement by Developer shall not be considered or acted upon by
the City as a default by the Permitted Transferee and shall not affect the Permitted Transferee's
rights or obligations hereunder. Likewise, a default by a Permitted Transferee shall not be
considered or acted upon by the City as a default by Developer and shall not affect Developer's
retained rights and obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a breach of this
Agreement involves an obligation jointly held by both Developer and a Permitted Transferee, the
City may avail itself of the remedies specified in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 against both the Developer
and Permitted Transferee.

11. Mortgagee Rights.
11.1 Encumbrances on Property.
The Parties agree that this Agreement shall not prevent or limit Developer in any manner
from encumbering the Property, any part of the Property, or any improvements on the Property
with any Mortgage securing financing with respect to the construction, development, use, or
operation of the Project.
11.2 Mortgagee Protection.
This Agreement shall be superior and senior to the lien of any Mortgage. Nevertheless, no
breach of this Agreement shall defeat, render invalid, diminish, or impair the lien of any Mortgage
made in good faith and for value. Any acquisition or acceptance of title or any right or interest in
the Property or part of the Property by a Mortgagee (whether due to foreclosure, trustee's sale,
deed in lieu of foreclosure, lease termination, or otherwise) shall be subject to all of the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. Any Mortgagee who takes title to the Property or any part of the
Property shall be entitled to the benefits arising under this Agreement.
11.3 Mortgagee Not Obligated.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11.3, a Mortgagee will not have any
obligation or duty under the terms of this Agreement to perform the obligations of Developer or
other affirmative covenants of Developer, or to guarantee this performance except that: (i) the
Mortgagee shall have no right to develop the Project under the Development Regulations without
fully complying with the terms of this Agreement; and (ii) to the extent that any covenant to be
performed by Developer is a condition to the performance of a covenant by City, that performance
shall continue to be a condition precedent to City's performance.
11.4 Notice of Default to Mortgagee, Right of Mortgagee to Cure.
Each Mortgagee shall, upon written request to City, be entitled to receive written notice
from City of: (i) the results of the periodic review of compliance specified in Article 6 of this
Agreement, and (ii) any default by Developer of its obligations set forth in this Agreement.
Each Mortgagee shall have a further right, but not an obligation, to cure the Default within
thirty (30) days after receiving a Notice of Default with respect to a monetary Default and within
sixty (60) days after receiving a Notice of Default with respect to a non -monetary Default. If the
Mortgagee can only remedy or cure a non -monetary Default by obtaining possession of the
Property, then the Mortgagee shall have the right to seek to obtain possession with diligence and
continuity through a receiver or otherwise, and to remedy or cure the non -monetary Default within
sixty (60) days after obtaining possession and, except in case of emergency or to protect the public
health or safety, City may not exercise any of its judicial remedies set forth in this Agreement to
terminate or substantially alter the rights of the Mortgagee until expiration of the sixty (60) -day
period. In the case of a non -monetary Default that cannot with diligence be remedied or cured
within sixty (60) days, the Mortgagee shall have additional time as is reasonably necessary to
remedy or cure the Default, provided the Mortgagee promptly commences to cure the non -
monetary Default within sixty (60) days and diligently prosecutes the cure to completion.

12.9 Entire Agreement.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the
subject matter addressed in this Agreement.
12.10 Severability.
The Parties intend that each and every obligation of the Parties is interdependent and
interrelated with the other, and if any provision of this Agreement or the application of the
provision to any Party or circumstances shall be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, it is
the intention of the Parties that the remainder of this Agreement or the application of the provision
to persons or circumstances shall be rendered invalid or unenforceable. The Parties intend that
neither Party shall receive any of the benefits of the Agreement without the full performance by
such Party of all of its obligations provided for under this Agreement. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Parties intend that Developer shall not receive any of the benefits
of this Agreement if any of Developer's obligations are rendered void or unenforceable as the
result of any third party litigation, and City shall be free to exercise its legislative discretion to
amend or repeal the Development Regulations applicable to the Property and Developer shall
cooperate as required, despite this Agreement, should third party litigation result in the
nonperformance of Developer's obligations under this Agreement. The provisions of this
Section 12.10 shall be effective on the date on which the Adopting Ordinance is approved by the
City Council and shall survive the Termination Date.
12.11 Developer Deposit.
Developer shall, within ten (10) business days following approval by the City of this
Agreement, and as a condition to the effectiveness of this Agreement, deliver to the City in cash
or cash equivalent funds, a deposit in the amount requested by the City based on the City's
estimated City Processing Fees including staff time required to complete plan check and perform
inspections (the "City Costs Deposit"), which amount shall be deposited by City in an account in
a bank or trust company selected by the City and with no requirement that such account be interest
bearing. If any interest is paid on such account, such interest shall accrue to any balances in the
account for the benefit of the City. If at any time prior to the issuance of the final certificate of
occupancy for a residential unit on the Property, the amount of funds in the City Costs Deposit
account is depleted below Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000), Developer shall be required to pay to
the City each time an additional Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000) or such other amount as the
City may specify as required in City's estimation to cover the cost of City Processing Fees,
including as required to complete plan check and perform inspections, which shall be credited to
the City Costs Deposit. Each such payment shall be deposited by the City into the City Costs
Deposit account and shall be applied to City Processing Fees. The City Costs Deposit has been
established to fund the City Processing Fees and may be used by the City for such purpose, and
shall be depleted accordingly. Immediately upon incurring any City Processing Fees or costs or
receipt of an invoice from third parties for same, the City shall have the right to deduct the amounts
due it on account thereof from the City Costs Deposit The City Costs Deposit shall be retained by
the City until the date of issuance of the final certificate of occupancy for a residential unit on the
Property and the remaining amount of the City Costs Deposit then held by the City, if any, shall
be promptly returned by the City to Developer thereafter, provided that the return of such funds
1596301.2

DRAFT
8127121
shall not terminate the obligations of Developer to pay all City Processing Fees arising or incurred
prior to issuance of the final certificate of occupancy for the final residential unit on the Property.
Developer shall pay any outstanding amounts due with respect to City Processing Fees to the City
within thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of an invoice from the City therefor, provided
that the City shall first apply the amount of the City Costs Deposit, if any, then held by it in
satisfaction of such invoice, and shall reflect the amount of such credit on the invoice.
12.12 Construction.
This Agreement has been drafted after extensive negotiation and revision. Both City and
Developer are sophisticated parties who were represented by independent counsel throughout the
negotiations or City and Developer had the opportunity to be so represented and voluntarily chose
to not be so represented. City and Developer each agree and acknowledge that the terms of this
Agreement are fair and reasonable, taking into account their respective purposes, terms, and
conditions. This Agreement shall therefore be construed as a whole consistent with its fair
meaning, and no principle or presumption of contract construction or interpretation shall be used
to construe the whole or any part of this Agreement in favor of or against either Party.
12.13 Successors and Assigns; Constructive Notice and Acceptance.
The burdens of this Agreement shall be binding upon, and the benefits of this Agreement
shall inure to, all successors in interest to the Parties to this Agreement. All provisions of this
Agreement shall be enforceable as equitable servitudes and constitute covenants running with the
land. Each covenant to do or refrain from doing some act hereunder with regard to Development
of the Property: (i) is for the benefit of and is a burden upon every portion of the Property; (ii) runs
with the Property and each portion thereof, and (iii) is binding upon each Party and each successor
in interest during its ownership of the Property or any portion thereof. Every person or entity who
now or later owns or acquires any right, title, or interest in any part of the Project or the Property
is and shall be conclusively deemed to have consented and agreed to every provision of this
Agreement. This Section 12.13 applies regardless of whether the instrument by which such person
or entity acquires the interest refers to or acknowledges this Agreement and regardless of whether
such person or entity has expressly entered into an assignment and assumption agreement as
provided for in Article 10 or is a Permitted Transferee under this Agreement.
12.14 No Third Party Beneficiaries.
The only Parties to this Agreement are City and Developer. This Agreement does not
involve any third party beneficiaries, and it is not intended and shall not be construed to benefit or
be enforceable by any other person or entity.
12.15 Applicable Law and Venue.
This Agreement shall be construed and enforced consistent with the internal laws of the
State of California, without regard to conflicts of law principles. Any action at law or in equity
arising under this Agreement or brought by any Party for the purpose of enforcing, construing, or
determining the validity of any provision of this Agreement shall be filed and tried in the Superior
Court of the County of Orange, State of California, or the United States District Court for the

12.20 Administrative Amendments.
Any amendment to this Agreement which does not relate to the Term, permitted uses of
the Project, provisions for the utilization of Residential Allocation Reservation, Development
Exactions, the conditions, terms, restrictions and requirements relating to the Applicable
Approvals or Public Benefits shall be considered an "Administrative Amendment". The City
Manager or his/her assignee is authorized to execute Administrative Amendments on behalf of
City and no action by the Planning Commission or the City Council (and no noticed public hearing)
shall be required before the Parties may enter into an Administrative Amendment. However, if in
the judgment of the City Manager it is determined that a proposal is not an Administrative
Amendment or that the proposed Administrative Amendment should be considered by the
approval bodies of the City, the City's Planning Commission shall conduct a noticed public hearing
to consider whether the Administrative Amendment should be approved or denied, and shall make
a recommendation to the City Council on the matter. The City Council shall conduct a noticed
public hearing to consider the request and the Planning Commission's recommendation on the
matter. At the conclusion of the public hearing, the City Council may approve, deny, or
conditionally approve the amendment.
