Subdivider's share of the cost of the Participatory Improvements. Payment security and warranty
security shall not be required for Participatory Improvements.
Upon written demand from City, Subdivider shall deposit cash with City in lieu of or in

Improvements. If City receives notice of any recorded lien, the provisions of the Subdivision
Map Act shall apply.
5) Warranty security not utilized during the warranty period shall be released one year after final
acceptance or approval by the City Council of all Parcel Improvements. However, if at the
end of the one-year warranty period, there are one or more outstanding requests by City for
performance of work or provision of materials under the terms of the warranty, warranty
T\Development Sennoes Donsion\Development ProVotii groements\SIAiSIA$ in ProgmssQCPenney RevemionlONSITE_SIA Eoc 3of7
security shall be retained until the outstanding requests are satisfied or until Subdivider has

unsuccessful, despite its best efforts, to acquire such real property at a reasonable price, Subdivider
may request in writing that City attempt to acquire such real property. City may, but is not required to,
agree to attempt to acquire such real property on behalf of Subdivider. If City so agrees, City and

separate agreement shall provide that Subdivider advance to City One Hundred Fifty Percent (150%)
of the appraised fair market value of the real property. Any unexpended portion of said advance shall
be refunded to Subdivider. Any additional funds required for acquisition of the real property shall be
paid by Subdivider to City upon the conveyance of said real property to Subdivider. In no event shall
the failure of Subdivider or City to acquire such real property excuse, waive, or otherwise terminate
Subdivider's obligation to construct the applicable improvement pursuant to this Agreement or the
Conditions of Approval.
6. Completion of Improvements. Subdivider shall begin construction of the Improvements within ninety
(90) days and shall complete construction within twelve (12) months after the approval of this
Agreement. Portions of the Improvements may be completed at a later date, as determined by the
City Engineer or as set forth in Exhibit A. Failure by Subdivider to begin or complete construction of
the Improvements within the specified time periods shall constitute cause for City, in its sole
discretion and when it deems necessary, to declare Subdivider in default of this agreement, to revise
improvement security requirements as necessary to ensure completion of the improvements, and/or
to require modifications in the standards or sequencing of the Improvements in response to changes
in standards or conditions affecting or affected by the Improvements. Said failure shall not otherwise
affect the validity of this agreement or Subdivider's obligations hereunder.
7. Force Maieure. In the event that Subdivider is unable to perform within the time limits herein due to
strikes, act of God, or other events beyond Subdivider's control, the time limits for obligations affected
by such events will be extended by the period of such events.
8. Time Extension. Subdivider may make application in writing to the City Council for an extension of
time for completion of the Improvements. The City Council, in its sole and absolute discretion, may
approve or deny the request or conditionally approve the extension with additions or revisions to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement.
As a condition of the time extension, Subdivider shall furnish securities, similar in form and substance
to those required in SECTION 3 hereinabove, to cover the period of extension. The value of the
securities shall be sufficient to ensure the performance of and payment for Improvements that remain
incomplete at the time of the extension, and to provide warranty security on completed
Improvements.
9. Survey Monuments. Before final approval of street improvements, Subdivider shall place survey
monuments in accordance with the provisions of Sections 66495, at sec. of the Subdivision Map Act
and of the La Quinta Municipal Code. Subdivider shall provide the City Engineer written proof that
the monuments have been set, evidence of payment and receipt thereof by the engineer or surveyor
setting the monuments, and intersection monument tie -outs for monuments set in public streets.

be accompanied by any required certifications from Subdivider's engineers or surveyors, approval
letters from other agencies having jurisdiction over and approval authority for improvements required
by this Agreement or the Conditions of Approval, and any required construction quality documentation
not previously submitted.
