N
Adopt a resolution of the Redevelopment Agency approving the Disposition and
Development Agreement by and between the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency and Coral
Mountain Partners, L.P., authorize the Executive Director and Agency Legal Counsel to
make minor modifications to the Disposition and Development Agreement that do not
alter the business transaction, and appropriate $16,000,000 from Project Area No. 1
Low- and Moderate -Income Housing Fund and $13,000,000 from Project Area No. 2
Low- and Moderate -Income Housing Fund.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
The Disposition and Development Agreement ("DDA") will obligate the Agency to invest
$29,000,000 to underwrite the final design, development and operation of a 176 unit
multi -family apartment complex that will be rented, at affordable rents, to very low-, low -
and moderate -income family households. To date, the Agency has expended
$10,023,868 to acquire property, design roadway and utility infrastructure
improvements, prepare a specific plan, and conduct the environmental review process.
The funds for this investment will be derived from the Project No. 1 and the Project No. 2
Low- and Moderate -Income Housing Funds. No City or Agency bond funds or other non -
Agency funds will be used to underwrite the Agency's $29,000,000 investment.
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
In 2007, the Agency purchased a 19.97 acre parcel located south of Highway 111, east
of Dune Palms Road, west of the Costco Center and north of the Desert Sands Unified
School District office. The purpose of this land acquisition was to facilitate commercial
development on the northern section, and affordable residential development on the
southern section. Following acquisition, the Agency entered into an Exclusive Negotiation
4. 012
Agreement with the Shovlin Companies (the principal company that comprises Coral
Mountain Partners, L.P. and the "Developer") to design an affordable housing complex on
the southern section. Once an initial design was completed, the Agency, as property
owner, processed entitlements and a certified Environmental Impact Report.
Upon defining a development program for a 176 unit affordable housing complex,
negotiations ensued to structure a disposition and development agreement that would
facilitate the long-term ground lease of 9.33 acres and the development of a multi -family
apartment community that would be affordable to very low-, low- and moderate -income
family households. Per the California Redevelopment Law ("CRL"), the Agency must
ensure that at least 15% of all privately developed housing in its Redevelopment Project
Areas is affordable to very low-, low- and moderate -income households. Further, these
affordable dwellings must remain affordable for 45 (single-family) to 55 (multi -family)
years. The Agency must secure 2,121 affordable dwellings by 2029; to date the Agency
has facilitated the production or substantial rehabilitation of 1,059 affordable dwellings.
Per the DDA, the Agency will lease a 9.33 acre parcel ("Site") for up to 75 years. The
Developer will construct a 176 unit apartment home complex with covered parking, a
community building and a pool. The Developer will also construct a roadway along the
west and northern boundary of the Site, and storm water drainage facilities that will
service both the Site and the commercial parcel to the north. The City of La Quinta will
be constructing additional intersection, median, storm water retention, traffic signal, and
bus stop improvements on Dune Palms Road to service the affordable housing apartment
community.
Per the Agency Note attached to the DDA, the Developer will be required to repay the
Agency's $29,000,000 loan through annual payments of 50% of the cash flow
generated by the Developer's operation of the development.
The CRL provides that before a redevelopment agency leases or sells property acquired
with tax increment revenue for development, the legislative body and the redevelopment
agency must hold a joint public hearing to receive testimony both for and against the
property disposition. Further, the CRL requires that a redevelopment agency prepare a
report that summarizes the costs and terms of the transaction ("Summary Report"). The
La Quinta City Council and the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency Board will be holding
said, joint public hearing on January 4, 2011. The subject of the joint public hearing will
be the DDA (Attachment 1) between the Agency and Coral Mountain Partners, L.P., and
the Summary Report (Attachment 2) that provides specific details regarding the
transaction facilitated by the DDA. If, after considering all testimony provided at the joint
public hearing, the City Council and the Redevelopment Agency Board deem it appropriate
to approve the DDA, then both bodies will adopt their respective resolutions approving
the DDA and appropriate the funds required for this transaction.
013
The Planning Department has prepared an Environmental Impact Report (State
Clearinghouse No. 2008101109 (the "EIR") under Environmental Assessment 2008-600
for the development of up to 200 affordable housing rental units. The City Council
certified the EIR on the May 18, 2008. Staff recommends the Agency determine that no
subsequent or supplemental EIR is required because the Project is consistent with, and
contemplated by, the EIR, and none of the events listed in Public Resources Code Section
21 166 have occurred.
The developer is proposing to incorporate energy conservation, water efficient and
renewable energy design features into the project design. In addition, building materials
will be selected for durability as well as resource efficiency and improved indoor
environmental health. The EIR for the Specific Plan included mitigation measures to
reduce air, energy, water and construction related impact to a less than significant
impact. Project design features are consistent with national and state environmental
design programs such as U.S. Green Building Council (LEED) and California Green Builder.
The project budget does not contemplate formal certification of this project under either
of these programs.
Public Noticing
The joint public hearing was advertised in The Desert Sun on December 19 and 26,
2010. As of this writing no correspondence has been received regarding this project.

(iv) The Developer agrees that the provisions of this Section shall not
be construed as limiting in any way the Agency's right to indemnification or the

the activities of any person or persons for which the Developer is otherwise
responsible.

Developer's agents, employees, contractors, licensees or invitees; or (iii) from and after the

1111838.05 al2/29/10
Property Closing any accident on the Property or any fire or other casualty or hazard thereon not
caused by the Indemnitees; and
(d) By accepting or approving anything required to be performed or given to
Agency under this Agreement, including any certificate, financial statement, survey, appraisal or
insurance policy, Agency shall not be deemed to have warranted or represented the sufficiency
or legal effect of the same, and no such acceptance or approval shall constitute a warranty or
representation by Agency to anyone.
10.16 Release of Construction Covenants. Promptly after completion of construction of
the Project by Developer in conformity with this Agreement, Agency shall furnish Developer
with a Release of Construction Covenants upon written request therefor by Developer. Agency
shall not unreasonably withhold such Release of Construction Covenants. Such Release of
Construction Covenants shall be a conclusive determination of satisfactory completion of the
construction required by this Agreement and the Release of Construction Covenants shall so
state. The Release of Construction Covenants shall be in the form attached hereto as Attachment
No.12 or such other similar form as to permit it to be recorded in the Official Records. If
Agency refuses or fails to furnish a Release of Construction Covenants for the Project after
written request from Developer, Agency shall, within fifteen (15) days of written request
therefor, provide Developer with a written statement of the reasons Agency refused or failed to
furnish the requested Release of Construction Covenants. The statement shall also contain
Agency's opinion of the actions Developer must take to obtain the Release of Construction
Covenants. If the reason for such refusal is confined to the immediate unavailability of specific
items of materials for landscaping or other minor "punch list" items, Agency shall issue its
Release of Construction Covenants upon the posting of cash, a bond, or other security acceptable
to Agency in Agency's sole discretion by Developer with Agency in an amount representing the
fair value of the work not yet completed, and Developer shall thereafter complete the "punch
list" work within sixty (60) days of issuance of the Release of Construction Covenants.
A Release of Construction Covenants shall not constitute evidence of compliance with or
satisfaction of any obligation of Developer to any holder of any mortgage or any insurer of a
mortgage securing money loaned to finance the improvements, or any part of this Agreement, or
a release of any obligations under this Agreement which survives issuance of the Release of
Construction Covenants. A Release of Construction Covenants is not a notice of completion as
referred to in the California Civil Code Section 3093.
11. AFFORDABILITY COVENANTS
As more particularly provided in the Agency Regulatory Agreement, for a period of fifty-
five (55) years, (i) thirty-six (36) of the dwelling units in the Project shall be rented to households

thirty-eight (138) of the dwelling units in the Project shall be rented to households whose incomes

the Project (which units shall be the two (2) on -site manager's units) shall be rented to households

13. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
13.1 Event of Default. Any of the following events or occurrences with respect to
either party shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and, after the expiration of any
applicable cure period, shall constitute an "Event of Default" by such party:
(a) The failure by either party to pay any amount in full when it is due under
this Agreement, if the failure has continued for a period of fifteen (15) days after the party
entitled to payment demands in writing that the other party cure that failure.
(b) The failure by either party to perform any other obligation under this
Agreement, including, without limitation, under the other Project Documents, if the failure has
continued for a period of thirty (30) days after demand in writing that such party cure the failure.
If, however, by its nature the failure cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, such
party may have such longer period of time as is reasonably necessary to cure the failure,
9821015610-0047 _32_
1111838,05 a12/29/10 �°
provided that such party commence said cure within said thirty (30)-day period, and thereafter
diligently prosecute said cure to completion within ninety (90) days thereafter.
13.2 No Waiver. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any
failure or delay by any party in asserting any of its rights or remedies as to any default shall not
operate as a waiver of any default, or of any such rights or remedies, or deprive any such party of
its right to institute and maintain any actions or proceedings which it may deem necessary to
protect, assert or enforce any such rights or remedies.
13.3 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative. Except as otherwise expressly stated in this
Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative, and the exercise by any party
of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same time
or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by
another party.
13.4 Attorneys' Fees. If either party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend
litigation in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing party in such litigation, in
addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to
reasonable attorneys' fees. If either party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend
litigation with a third party because of the violation of any term or provision of this Agreement
by the other party, then the party so litigating shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees from
the other party to this Agreement. Attorneys' fees shall include attorney's fees on any appeal,
and in addition a party entitled to attorney's fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for
investigating such action, retaining expert witnesses, taking depositions and discovery, and all
other necessary costs incurred with respect to such litigation. All such fees shall be deemed to
have accrued on commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such
action is prosecuted to judgment.
13.5 Reimbursement of Agency. Subject to Section 13.4, Developer shall, within
fifteen (15) days after written demand, reimburse Agency for all costs reasonably incurred by
Agency (including the reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants, appraisers and
other consultants) in connection with Agency enforcement of the Project Documents and all
related matters, including, without limitation, the following: (a) Agency's commencement of,
appearance in, or defense of any action or proceeding purporting to affect the rights or
obligations of the parties to any Project Document; and (b) all claims, demands, causes of action,
liabilities, losses, and other costs against which Agency is indemnified under the Project
Documents. Such reimbursement obligations shall bear interest from the date occurring fifteen

the authority to issue interpretations, waive terms and conditions, and enter into amendments of
this Agreement (including, without limitation, to the Schedule of Performance) on behalf of

waivers or amendments shall require the formal consent of Agency.
17. MISCELLANEOUS

taken together, shall be deemed to be one and the same document.

Developer or successor, or on any obligation under the terms of this Agreement.
17.11 Force Majeure. In addition to specific provisions of this Agreement, performance

other deities; acts of the public enemy; epidemics; quarantine restrictions; freight embargoes;
litigation beyond the reasonable control of a party; unusually severe weather; inability, despite

commence to run from the time of the commencement of the cause, if notice by the party

or group of persons on account of any basis listed in subdivision (a) or (d) of Section 12955 of

Borrower's obligations under this Note and the Agreement shall, at all times subsequent
to the purchase of the Property by Borrower during which any amount remains outstanding
hereunder, be secured by the Agency Deed of Trust, which Agency Deed of Trust shall only be
subordinated to approved deed(s) of trust for the Construction Loan and such encumbrances
approved by the Agency in writing, pursuant to a written subordination agreement in a form
approved by Agency counsel. Upon execution of the same, the terms of the Agency Deed of
Trust are incorporated herein and made a part hereof to the same extent and with the same force

5. Maturity. This Note shall be due and payable on the date of expiration of the
term of the Ground Lease, as such term may be extended pursuant to the terms thereof, or earlier
termination thereof.

fees owing under this Note, (ii) second, to the payment of unpaid accrued interest owing under
this Note for each calendar year in which no payment was made by Borrower pursuant to Section

882/015610-0047
1111838.05 al2129/10
in consideration for any such extension or release any security for this Note at its sole discretion
all without in any way affecting the liability of Borrower.
(b) No extension of time for payment of this Note made by agreement by
Agency with any person now or hereafter liable for the payment of this Note shall operate to
release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of Borrower under this Note,
either in whole or in part.
(c) The obligations of Borrower under this Note shall be absolute and
Borrower waives any and all rights to offset, deduct or withhold any payments or charges due
under this Note for any reasons whatsoever.
(d) Borrower waives presentment, demand, notice of protest and nonpayment,
notice of default or delinquency, notice of acceleration, notice of costs, expenses or leases or
interest thereon, notice of dishonor, diligence in collection or in proceeding against any of the
rights or interests in or to properties securing this Note, and the benefit of any exemption under
any homestead exemption laws, if applicable.
(e) No previous waiver and no failure or delay by Agency in acting with
respect to the terms of this Note or the Deed of Trust shall constitute a waiver of any breach,
default, or failure or condition under this Note, the Agency Deed of Trust or the obligations
secured thereby. A waiver of any term of this Note, the Agency Deed of Trust or of any of the
obligations secured thereby must be made in writing and shall be limited to the express written
terms of such waiver.
8. Attorneys' Fees and Costs. Borrower agrees that if any amounts due under this
Note are not paid when due, Borrower will pay all costs and expenses of collection and
reasonable attorneys' fees paid or incurred in connection with the collection or enforcement of
this Note, whether or not suit is filed.
9. Joint and Several Obligation. This Note is the joint and several obligation of all
makers, sureties, guarantors and endorsers, and shall be binding upon them and their heirs,
successors and assigns.
10. Amendments and Modifications. This Note may not be changed orally, but
only by an amendment approved by Agency and evidenced in a writing signed by Borrower and
by Agency.
11. Agency May Assign. Agency may, at its option, assign its right to receive
payment under this Note without necessity of obtaining the consent of the Borrower.
12. Borrower Assignment Prohibited. In no event shall Borrower assign or transfer
any portion of this Note without the prior express written consent of Agency, which consent shall
not unreasonably be withheld, except pursuant to a transfer that is authorized under Section 15 of
the Agreement.
13. Acceleration and Other Remedies. Upon the occurrence of a Default, Agency
may, at Agency's option, declare the outstanding principal amount of this Note, together with the
882/015610-0047 _ •• 039
1111838 05 a12/29/10 _g
then accrued and unpaid interest thereon and other charges hereunder, and all other sums secured
by the Agency Deed of Trust, to be due and payable immediately, and upon such declaration,
such principal and interest and other sums shall immediately become and be due and payable
without demand or notice, all as further set forth in the Agency Deed of Trust. All costs of
collection, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and all expenses incurred in
connection with protection of, or realization on, the security for this Note, may be added to the
principal hereunder, and shall accrue interest as provided herein. Agency shall at all times have
the right to proceed against any portion of the security for this Note in such order and in such
manner as Agency may consider appropriate, without waiving any rights with respect to any of
the security. Any delay or omission on the part of Agency in exercising any right hereunder,
under the Agreement or under the Agency Deed of Trust shall not operate as a waiver of such
right, or of any other right. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or
under the Agreement or any other document or agreement shall preclude other or further
exercises thereof, or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The acceptance of payment of
any sum payable hereunder, or part thereof, after the due date of such payment shall not be a
waiver of Agency's right, to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums payable
hereunder or to declare a Default for failure to make prompt or complete payment.
14. Alternate Rate. Upon the occurrence of any Default, or upon the maturity hereof
(by acceleration or otherwise), the entire unpaid principal sum, at the option of Agency, shall
bear interest, from the date of occurrence of such Default or maturity and after judgment and
until collection, at the "Alternate Rate", such rate being the highest interest rate then permitted
by law. Interest calculated at the Alternate Rate, when and if applicable, shall be due and
payable immediately without notice or demand. Borrower agrees that in the event of any
Default, Agency will incur additional expense in servicing the loan evidenced by this Note and
will suffer damage and loss resulting from such Default. Borrower agrees that in such event
Agency shall be entitled to damages for the detriment caused thereby, which damages are
extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain. Therefore, Borrower agrees that the Alternate
Rate (as applied to the unpaid principal balance, accrued interest, fees, costs and expenses
incurred) is a reasonable estimate of such damages to Agency, and Borrower agrees to pay such
sum on demand.
15. Consents. Borrower hereby consents to: (a) any extension (whether one or
more) of the time of payment under this Note, (b) the release or surrender or exchange or
substitution of all or any part of the security, whether real or personal, or direct or indirect, for
the payment hereof, (c) the granting of any other indulgences to Borrower, and (d) the taking or
releasing of other or additional parties primarily or contingently liable hereunder. Any such
extension, release, surrender, exchange or substitution may be made without notice to Borrower
or to any endorser, guarantor or surety hereof, and without affecting the liability of said parties
hereunder.
16. Interest Rate Limitation. Agency and Borrower stipulate and agree that none of
the terms and provisions contained herein or in any of the loan instruments shall ever be
construed to create a contract for the use, forbearance or detention of money requiring payment
of interest at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate permitted to be charged by the laws of
the State of California. In such event, if any holder of this Note shall collect monies which are
deemed to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the effective interest rate on this
882/015610-0047 _9_ `' O
1111838,05 a12/29/10
Note to a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted to be charged by the laws of the State of
California, all such sums deemed to constitute interest in excess of such maximum rate shall, at
the option of such holder, be credited to the payment of the sums due hereunder or returned to
Borrower.
17. Successors and Assigns. Whenever "Agency" is referred to in this Note, such
reference shall be deemed to include the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency and its successors
and assigns, including, without limitation, any successor to its rights, powers, and
responsibilities, and any subsequent assignee or holder of this Note. All covenants, provisions
and agreements by or on behalf of Borrower, and on behalf of any makers, endorsers, guarantors
and sureties hereof which are contained herein shall inure to the benefit of Agency and Agency's
successors and assigns.
18. Miscellaneous. Time is of the essence hereof. This Note shall be governed by
and construed under the laws of the State of California except to the extent Federal laws preempt
the laws of the State of California. Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the
jurisdiction of the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Riverside or the
United States District Court of the Central District of California, as Agency may deem
appropriate, in connection with any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Note. Borrower also waives any objection regarding personal or in rem jurisdiction or venue.
19. Non -Recourse Obligation. Borrower and its partners shall not be personally
liable for the payment of this Note or for the payment of any deficiency established after judicial
foreclosure or trustee's sale; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not in any way affect
any rights Agency may have (as a secured party or otherwise) hereunder or under the Agreement
or Agency Deed of Trust to recover directly from Borrower any amounts, or any funds, damages
or costs (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) incurred by Agency
as a result of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or bad faith, waste, and any costs and expenses
incurred by Agency in connection therewith (including without limitation reasonable attorneys'
fees and costs).

restating Residual Receipts upward for any fiscal year, then Borrower shall accompany delivery
of such audit report to Agency with the additional payment to Agency resulting from said
restatement pursuant to Section 3 of this Note. If any such audit report results in Borrower

Trust. If the casualty or condemnation affects only part of the Project and total rebuilding is
infeasible, then proceeds may be used for partial rebuilding and partial repayment of the Agency
Loan in a manner that provides adequate security for repayment of the remaining balance of the
Agency Loan. The rights of the Beneficiary to any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards
pursuant to this paragraph 18 are and shall be subject to the prior right to any insurance proceeds
or condemnation awards of the beneficiary of the deed of trust securing the Senior Loan, as
described in paragraph 31;
19. Upon default by Trustor in making any payments provided for herein or in the
Agency Loan Note secured hereby, and if such default is not made good within fifteen (15) days
after notice from Beneficiary, or if Trustor shall fail to perform any covenant or agreement in
this Deed of Trust within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor by Beneficiary (or, in the
event that more than thirty (30) days is reasonably required to cure such default, should Trustor
fail to promptly commence such cure, and diligently prosecute same to completion), Beneficiary
may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable by delivery to Trustee of
written declaration of default and demand for sale, and of written notice of default and of
election to cause the Property to be sold, which notice Trustee shall cause to be duly filed for
record and Beneficiary may foreclose this Deed of Trust. Beneficiary shall also deposit with
Trustee this Deed of Trust, the Agency Loan Note and all documents evidencing expenditures
secured hereby;
20. After the lapse of such time as may then be required by law following the
recordation of said notice of default, and notice of sale having been given as then required by
law, Trustee, without demand on Trustor, shall sell Trustor's interest in said Property at the time
and place fixed by it in said notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate parcels, and in such
order as it may determine at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the
United States, payable at time of sale. Trustee may postpone sale of all or any portion of said
interest by public announcement at the time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter
may postpone the sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement.
Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser its deed conveying Trustor's interest in the property so
sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in the deed of any
matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including
Trustor, Trustee or Beneficiary, may purchase at the sale. Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale
to payment of (1) the expenses of such sale, together with the reasonable expenses of this trust
including therein reasonable Trustee's fees or attorneys' fees for conducting the sale, and the
actual cost of publishing, recording, mailing and posting notice of the sale; (2) the cost of any
search and/or other evidence of title procured in connection with such sale and revenue stamps
on Trustee's deed; (3) all sums expended under the terms hereof, not then repaid, with accrued
interest at the rate specified in the Agency Loan Note; (4) all other sums then secured hereby;
and (5) the remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled thereto;
21. Beneficiary may from time to time substitute a successor or successors to any
Trustee named herein or acting hereunder to execute this Deed of Trust. Upon such appointment,
and without conveyance to the successor trustee, the latter shall be vested with all title, powers,
and duties conferred upon any Trustee herein named or acting hereunder. Each such appointment
882/015610-0047
1111838.05 al 2/29/10
and substitution shall be made by written instrument executed by Beneficiary, containing
reference to this Deed of Trust and its place of record, which, when duly recorded in the proper
office of the county or counties in which the property is situated, shall be conclusive proof of
proper appointment of the successor trustee;
22. The pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to any and all obligations
secured by this Deed of Trust is hereby waived to the full extent permissible by law;
23. Upon written request of Beneficiary stating that all sums secured hereby have
been paid, and upon surrender of this Deed of Trust and the Agency Loan Note to Trustee for
cancellation and retention and upon payment of its fees, Trustee shall reconvey, without
warranty, the property then held hereunder. The recitals in such reconveyance of any matters of
fact shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. The grantee in such reconveyance may
be described as "the person or persons legally entitled thereto";
24. The trust created hereby is irrevocable by Trustor;
25. This Deed of Trust applies to, inures to the benefit of, and binds all parties hereto,
their heirs, legatees, devisees, administrators, executors, successors, and assigns. The term
"Beneficiary" shall include not only the original Beneficiary hereunder but also any successor to
Beneficiary's rights, powers, and responsibilities, and any future owner and holder including
pledgees, of the Agency Loan Note secured hereby. In this Deed of Trust, whenever the context
so requires, the masculine gender includes the feminine and/or neuter, and the singular number
includes the plural. All obligations of each Trustor hereunder are joint and several;
26. Trustee accepts this trust when this Deed of Trust, duly executed and
acknowledged, is made public record as provided by law. Except as otherwise provided by law,
Trustee is not obligated to notify any party hereto of pending sale under this Deed of Trust or of
any action or proceeding in which Trustor, Beneficiary, or Trustee shall be a party unless
brought by Trustee;
27. The undersigned Trustor requests that copies of any notice of default and of any
notice of sale hereunder be mailed to it at Coral Mountain Partners, L.P., 46753 Adams Street,

expenses of the premises, and the names of the occupants and tenants in possession, together

29. The full principal amount outstanding plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon,
shall be due and payable on the earlier to occur of the following:
(a) Sale, transfer, assignment or refinancing of the Property as provided
further in this paragraph 29; unless: (i) in the case of a sale in which the sale proceeds are
insufficient to repay in full the Agency Loan, the Beneficiary approves such sale and the
purchaser assumes the balance of the Agency Loan in accordance with the terms of the Agency
Loan Note; or (ii) in the case of a refinancing in which the refinancing proceeds are insufficient
to repay in full the Agency Loan, the Beneficiary approves such refinancing and the Borrower
remains obligated pursuant to the terms of the Note.
(b) In order to induce Beneficiary to make the loan evidenced hereby, Trustor
agrees that in the event of any transfer of the Property without the prior written consent of
Beneficiary (other than a transfer resulting from a foreclosure, or conveyance by deed in lieu of
foreclosure, by the holder of the deed of trust securing the Senior Loan), Beneficiary shall have
the absolute right at its option, without prior demand or notice, to declare all sums secured
hereby immediately due and payable. Consent to one such transaction shall not be deemed to be
a waiver of the right to require consent to future or successive transactions. Beneficiary may
grant or deny such consent in its sole discretion and, if consent should be given, any such
transfer shall be subject to this paragraph 29, and any such transferee shall assume all obligations
hereunder and agree to be bound by all provisions contained herein. Such assumption shall not,
however, release Trustor from any liability thereunder without the prior written consent of
Beneficiary.
(c) As used herein, "transfer" includes the sale, agreement to sell, transfer or
conveyance of Trustor's leasehold interest in the Property, or any portion thereof or interest
therein, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, the execution of any
installment land sale contract or similar instrument affecting all or a portion of the Property, or
the lease of all or substantially all of the Property. "Transfer" shall not include the leasing of
individual residential units on the Property or any transfers of the limited partnership interests in
Trustor or any replacement of a general partner of Trustor by its limited partner pursuant to the
agreement that sets forth the terms of the Trustor's limited partnership (the "Partnership
Agreement").
(d) The term "Sale" means any transfer, assignment, conveyance or lease
(other than to a tenant for occupancy) of Trustor's leasehold interest in the Property and/or the
improvements thereon, or any portion thereof, or any interest therein by the Trustor, but excludes
any purchase option agreement given to Trustor's general partner(s). Sale includes a sale in
condemnation or under threat thereof. Sale does not include dedications and grants of easements
to public and private utility companies of the kind customary in real estate development. Sale
shall also not include any transfers of the limited partnership interests in Trustor or any
replacement of a general partner of Trustor by its limited partner pursuant to the Partnership
Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Deed of Trust or in the
Agency Loan Note, prior to declaring any default or taking any remedy permitted under this
Deed of Trust, the Agency Loan Note or applicable law based upon an alleged default,
(the "Investor") shall have a period of not less than
982/015610-0047 _7_
I111838.05 at2/29/10
thirty (30) days to cure such alleged default; provided, however, if in order to cure such default
the Investor reasonably believes that it must remove a general partner of Trustor, or all of them,
pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Investor shall so notify Beneficiary and so long as the
Investor is reasonably and diligently attempting to remove the general partner or general
partners, the Investor shall have until the date thirty (30) days after the effective date of the
removal of the general partner or general partners to cure such default.
30. Trustor shall permit Beneficiary and its agents or representatives, to inspect the
Property at any and all reasonable times, with twenty-four (24) hours advance notice. Inspections
shall be conducted so as not to interfere with the tenants' use and enjoyment of the Property.
31. It is hereby expressly agreed and acknowledged by Trustor and Beneficiary that
this Deed of Trust is a second and subordinate deed of trust, and that the Agency Loan secured
hereby, and the Agency Loan Note are subject and subordinate only to the deed of trust securing
a loan to Trustor in original principal amount of $ in which
("Senior Lender") is the Beneficiary, including
any loan that refinances the balance of the Senior Loan or an assignment of the Senior Loan
(collectively referred to as the "Senior Loan").
32. For purposes of this Deed of Trust, "Hazardous Materials" means any substance,
material, or waste which is or becomes regulated by any local governmental authority, the State
of California, or the United States Government, including, but not limited to, any material or
substance which is (i) defined as a "hazardous waste", "acutely hazardous waste", "extremely

33, In addition to the general and specific representations, covenants and warranties
set forth in this Deed of Trust or otherwise, Trustor represents, covenants and warrants, with
respect to Hazardous Materials, as follows:
(a) Neither Trustor nor, to the best knowledge of Truster, any other person,
has ever caused or permitted any Hazardous Materials to be manufactured, placed, held, located
or disposed of on, under or at the Property or any part thereof, and neither the Property nor any
part thereof, or any property adjacent thereto, has ever been used (whether by Trustor or, to the
best knowledge of the Trustor, by any other person) as a manufacturing site, dump site or storage
site (whether permanent or temporary) for any Hazardous Materials;
(b) Trustor hereby agrees to indemnify Beneficiary, its officers, employees,
contractors and agents, and hold Beneficiary, its officers, employees, contractors and agents
harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, costs, expenses and
claims of any and every kind whatsoever paid, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against
Beneficiary, its officers, employees, contractors or agents for, with respect to, or as a direct or
indirect result of, the presence or use, generation, storage, release, threatened release or disposal
of Hazardous Materials on or under the Property or the escape, seepage, leakage, spillage,
discharge, emission or release of any Hazardous Materials from the Property (including, without
limitation, any losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, costs, expenses or claims asserted or arising
under CERCLA, any so-called "Superfund" or "Superlien" law, or any other federal, state or
local statute, law, ordinance, code, rule, regulation, order or decree regulating, relating to or
imposing liability or standards of conduct concerning any Hazardous Materials), caused by
Truster.
(c) Trustor has not received any notice of (i) the happening of any event
involving the use, spillage, discharge or cleanup of any Hazardous Materials ("Hazardous
Discharge") affecting Trustor or the Property or (ii) any complaint, order, citation or notice with
regard to air emissions, water discharges, noise emissions or any other environmental, health or
safety matter affecting Trustor or the Property ("Environmental Complaint") from any person or
entity, including, without limitation, the United States Environmental Protection Agency
("EPA"). If Trustor receives any such notice after the date hereof, then Trustor will give, within
seven (7) business days thereafter, oral and written notice of same to Beneficiary.
(d) Without limitation of Beneficiary's rights under this Deed of Trust,
Beneficiary shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enter onto the Property or to take such
other actions as it deems necessary or advisable to clean up, remove, resolve or minimize the
impact of, or otherwise deal with, any such Hazardous Materials or Environmental Complaint
upon its receipt of any notice from any person or entity, including without limitation, the EPA,
asserting the existence of any Hazardous Materials or an Environmental Complaint on or
pertaining to the Property which, if true, could result in an order, suit or other action against
Trustor affecting any part of the Property by any governmental agency or otherwise which, in the
sole opinion of Beneficiary, could jeopardize its security under this Deed of Trust. All reasonable
costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in the exercise of any such rights shall be secured by
this Deed of Trust and shall be payable by Trustor upon demand together with interest thereon at
a rate equal to the highest rate payable under the Agency Loan Note secured hereby.

34. The following shall be an "Event of Default:"
(a) Failure of Truster to pay, when due, principal and interest and any other
sums or charges on the Agency Loan Note, in accordance with the provisions set forth in the
Agency Loan Note and such failure is not cured within fifteen (15) days after receipt of written
notice from Beneficiary; or
(b) A violation of the terms, conditions or covenants of the Agency Loan
Note, this Deed of Trust, the DDA, Agency Regulatory Agreement, or Ground Lease
35. Subject to the extensions of time set forth in paragraph 36, and subject to the
further provisions of this paragraph 35 and of paragraphs 37 and 38, failure or delay by the
Truster to perform any term or provision of this Deed of Trust constitutes a default under this
Deed of Trust. The Trustor must immediately commence to cure, correct, or remedy such failure
or delay and shall complete such cure, correction or remedy with reasonable diligence.
(a) The Beneficiary shall give written notice of default to the Truster with a
copy to the limited partners of Truster for which Beneficiary has been supplied with address for
notice, specifying the default complained of by the Beneficiary. Delay in giving such notice
shall not constitute a waiver of any default nor shall it change the time of default.
(b) The Trustor shall not be in default so long as it endeavors to complete
such cure, correction or remedy with reasonable diligence, provided such cure, correction or
remedy is completed within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice (or such additional
time as may be reasonably necessary to correct the cause).
(c) Any failures or delays by the Beneficiary in asserting any of its rights and
remedies as to any default shall not operate as a waiver of any default or of any such rights or
remedies. Delays by the Beneficiary in asserting any of its rights and remedies shall not deprive
the Beneficiary of its right to institute and maintain any actions or proceedings which it may
deem necessary to protect, assert, or enforce any such rights or remedies.
36. Notwithstanding specific provisions of this Deed of Trust, performance hereunder
shall not be deemed to be in default where delays or defaults are due to: war; insurrection;
strikes; lock -outs; riots; floods; earthquakes; fires; casualties; acts of God or other deities; acts of
the public enemy; epidemics; quarantine restrictions; freight embargoes; lack of transportation;
governmental restrictions or priority; litigation; unusually severe weather; inability to secure
necessary labor, materials or tools; delays of any contractor or supplier; acts of the other party;
acts or failure to act of the Beneficiary, or any other public or governmental agency or entity
(except that any act or failure to act of Beneficiary shall not excuse performance by Beneficiary);
or any other causes beyond the reasonable control or without the fault of the party claiming an
extension of time to perform. An extension of time for any such cause shall be for the period of
the enforced delay and shall commence to run from the time the party claiming such extension
gives notice to the other party, provided notice by the party claiming such extension is given
within thirty (30) days after the commencement of the cause. Times of performance under this
Deed of Trust may also be extended in writing by the Beneficiary and Truster.
37. If a monetary event of default occurs under the terms of the Agency Loan Note or
this Deed of Trust, prior to exercising any remedies thereunder Beneficiary shall give Truster
882/015610-0047 -to- 104
11 t I S38 05 a12/29/10
written notice of such default. Trustor shall have a period of fifteen (15) days after such notice is
given within which to cure the default prior to exercise of remedies by Beneficiary under the
Agency Loan Note and this Deed of Trust.
38. If a non -monetary event of default occurs under the terms of the Agency Loan
Note or this Deed of Trust, prior to exercising any remedies hereunder or thereunder, Beneficiary
shall give Trustor notice of such default. If the default is reasonably capable of being cured
within thirty (30) days, Trustor shall have such period to effect a cure prior to exercise of
remedies by the Beneficiary under the Agency Loan Note and this Deed of Trust. If the default is
such that it is not reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) days, and Trustor (a)
initiates corrective action within said period, and (b) diligently, continually, and in good faith
works to effect a cure as soon as possible, then Trustor shall have such additional time as is
reasonably necessary to cure the default prior to exercise of any remedies by Beneficiary. In no
event shall Beneficiary be precluded from exercising remedies if its security becomes or is about
to become materially jeopardized by any failure to cure a default or the default is not cured
within one hundred eighty (180) days after the first notice of default is given.
39. Beneficiary shall provide those limited partners of Trustor for which Beneficiary
has been supplied with address for notice with a copy of any written notice provided to Trustor
under the terms of the Agency Loan Documents. In the event of a monetary event of default,
Trustor's limited partners shall have a period of fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice, or
such longer period of time as may be set forth in the Agency Loan Documents, to cure the
default prior to exercise of any remedy by Beneficiary. In the event a non -monetary event of
default occurs under any Agency Loan Document, Trustor's limited partners shall have a period
of thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, or such longer period of time as may be set forth
in the Agency Loan Documents, to cure the default prior to exercise of any remedy by
Beneficiary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agency Loan
Documents, Beneficiary hereby agrees that any cure of any default made or tendered by
Trustor's limited partners shall be deemed to be a cure by Trustor and shall be accepted or
rejected on the same basis as if such cure were made or tendered by Trustor.
40. Subject to paragraph 36, Trustor, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as
described in paragraph 34 that has not been cured with the applicable cure period set forth in
paragraph 37 or 38, shall be obligated to repay the Agency Loan and, subject to the nonrecourse
provision of the Agency Loan Note, Beneficiary may seek to enforce payment of any and all
amounts due by Trustor pursuant to the terms of the Agency Loan Note.
41. All expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs and allowances)
incurred in connection with an action to foreclose, or the exercise of any other remedy provided
by this Deed of Trust, including the curing of any Event of Default, shall be the responsibility of
Trustor.
42. Except as provided in paragraph 31, each successor owner of an interest in the
Property, other than through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or an owner who takes an
interest in the Property after a foreclosure has occurred, shall take its interest subject to this Deed
of Trust.
882/015610-0047
1111838.05 a1229/10
43. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Beneficiary agrees that this
Deed of Trust is and shall be subordinate to any extended low-income housing commitment (as
such term is defined in Section 42(h)(6)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) (the "Extended Use
Agreement') recorded against the Property; provided that such Extended Use Agreement, by its
terms, will terminate upon foreclosure or upon a transfer of the Property by instrument in lieu of
foreclosure in accordance with said Section 42(h)(6)(B).

4.1.2 Rent Adjustment. Upon the later to occur of (i) full payment of the
Agency Loan Note or (ii) the twentieth (20th) anniversary of the Commencement Date, the Rent
due under this Ground Lease shall be reset based on the fair market value of the remaining
leasehold interest under this Ground Lease (taking into account the restrictions set forth in the
Regulatory Agreement, hereinafter referred to as the "Recorded Restrictions" as independently
appraised and at an annual rental based on a percentage of such appraised value as determined by
a qualified, independent appraiser (conducted by a certified appraiser reasonably acceptable to
Executive Director and Tenant), who shall take into account the cumulative amounts which have
been actually paid to the Landlord as Rent under this Ground Lease, including without limitation
taking into consideration the remaining balance, if any, on the Agency Loan as of the time of the
appraisal, and including a reasonable return on investment of between six percent (6%) and eight
percent (8%). Such independent appraisal shall determine the fair market value of the Property,
at its highest and best use (but taking the Recorded Restrictions into account), at the time of such
appraisal but shall also take into consideration an overall fair market ground lease rent over the
55-year Term of this Ground Lease with an objective that Landlord receive over such 55-year
term cumulatively a fair market value ground lease rent (taking the Recorded Restrictions into
account), under this Ground Lease. In such regard, if the Rent paid to date has underpaid,
cumulatively, toward achieving a fair market ground lease rent (taking the Recorded Restrictions
into account), over the 55-year Term of this Ground Lease, then the appraiser shall take that fact
into consideration when determining an adjusted fair market Rent for the remainder of the Term.
Likewise, if the Rent paid to date has been overpaid, cumulatively, toward achieving a fair
market ground lease rent (taking the Recorded Restrictions into account) over the 55-year Term,
then the appraiser shall take that fact into consideration when determining the adjusted Rent for
the remainder of the Term.
This adjusted annual rent for the remaining Term of this Ground Lease, as determined by
the independent appraiser as described above, with the Rent due and required to be paid annually
under this Ground Lease shall be re -adjusted to the lesser of (1) such appraised rent for the
Property (to be increased by 20% every five (5) years to account for inflation), or (2) fifty
percent (50%) of the Residual Receipts for the Housing Development. In any year, if the
appraised value rent (to be increased by 20% every five (5) years to account for inflation)
exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the Residual Receipts for the Housing Development, the amount
by which such appraised value rent (increased by 20% every five (5) years to account for
inflation) exceeds 50 percent (50%) of the Residual Receipts for the Housing Development to be
paid pursuant to this Section 4.1 in a given year shall accrue and be carried over and added to the
amount of the Rent to be paid in later years by Tenant.
Additionally, the adjusted annual rent shall include all of the following: (i) fifty percent
(50%) of the Refinancing Net Proceeds immediately upon any refinancing of the loans secured
882/015610-0047 �i
1111838.05 a12/29/10 10•• L

14.9 Appraisal. Whenever an appraisal of the Property is called for under the terms of
this Ground Lease, the parties shall use the following procedure:
14.9.1 Appointment of Appraiser. Within ten (10) days after notice from
Landlord to Tenant, Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint an MAI appraiser to participate in
the appraisal process provided for in this Section 14.9 and shall give written notice thereof to the
other party. Upon the failure of either party so to appoint, the nondefaulting party shall have the
right to apply to the Superior Court of Riverside County, California, to appoint an appraiser to
represent the defaulting party. Within ten (10) days of the parties' appointment, the two (2)
appraisers shall jointly appoint a third MAI appraiser and give written notice thereof to Landlord
and Tenant, or if within ten (10) days of the appointment of said appraisers the two (2) appraisers
shall fail to appoint a third, then either party hereto shall have the right to make application to
said Superior Court to appoint such third appraiser.
14.9.2 Determination of Fair Market Value.
(a) Within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the third appraiser,
the appraisers shall determine the fair market value of the Property and the Improvements in
accordance with the provisions hereof, and shall execute and acknowledge their determination of
fair market value in writing and cause a copy thereof to be delivered to each of the parties hereto.
(b) The appraisers shall determine the fair market value of the
Property and the Improvements as of the date of Landlord's notice referred to in Section 14.9.1
above, based on sales of comparable property in the area in which the Property is located, subject
to the restrictions encumbering the Property. If, however, in the judgment of a majority of the
appraisers, no such comparable sales are available, then the appraisal shall be based on the
assumption that the Property is available for immediate sale and development for the purposes
and at the density and intensity of development permitted under the zoning, subdivision and land
use planning ordinances and regulations applicable to the Property in effect on the
Commencement Date of this Ground Lease, and any changes or amendments thereto or
modification or variance from the provisions thereof or conditional use permits which could
reasonably be anticipated to have been granted or approved as of the date of this Ground Lease.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the appraisal, for the particular
purposes for which it is being done, should reasonably reflect the rent restrictions imposed on the
Property pursuant to the Regulatory Agreement, then such rent restrictions shall be taken into
consideration by the appraisers.
(c) If a majority of the appraisers are unable to agree on fair market
value within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser, the three (3) appraisals
shall be added together and their total divided by three (3).The resulting quotient shall be the fair
market value of the Property and the Improvements. If, however, the low appraisal and/or high
appraisal is or are more than ten percent (10%) lower and/or higher than the middle appraisal, the
low and/or high appraisal shall be disregarded. If only one appraisal is disregarded, the
remaining two appraisals shall be added together and their total divided by two (2).The resulting
882/015610-0047 -34-
1111838,05 a12/29/10 4 ooq .
quotient shall be the fair market value of the Property and the Improvements. If both the low and
high appraisals are disregarded, the middle appraisal shall be the fair market value of the
Property.
14.9.3 Payment of Fees. Each of the parties hereto shall (a) pay for the services
of its appointee, (b) pay one-half (1/2) of the fee charged by the appraiser selected by their
appointees, and (c) pay one-half (1 /2) of all other proper costs of the appraisal.

new lease only for the period of time that Foreclosure Transferee remains Tenant thereunder, and
that Foreclosure Transferee's right to assign this Ground Lease or such new lease shall not be
subject to the restrictions set forth in this Ground Lease. Nothing in this Section shall be
construed to obligate any Foreclosure Transferee to remedy any default of Tenant, and any
failure of any Mortgagee to complete any such cure after commencing the same shall not give
rise to any liability of any Mortgagee to Landlord or Tenant.
(9) If this Ground Lease is terminated, whether by foreclosure,
order of a bankruptcy court or otherwise, upon written request by any Mortgagee given within
sixty (60) days after Landlord gives written notice of such termination to each Mortgagee,
Landlord shall enter into a new lease of the Property with the Mortgagee for the remainder of the
Term with the same agreements, covenants, reversionary interests and conditions (except for any
requirements which have been fulfilled by Tenant prior to termination) as are contained in this
Ground Lease and with priority equal to this Ground Lease, which new lease shall be effective as
of the date of termination of the original Ground Lease; provided, however, that a requesting
Mortgagee shall promptly cure any defaults by Tenant reasonably susceptible to cure by the
Mortgagee. The Tenant under the new lease shall have the same right, title and interest in and to
all Improvements located on the Property as Tenant had under the terminated Ground Lease

notices of default and to cure as any Mortgagee authorized under this paragraph (c).
(11) Landlord shall include in this Ground Lease by suitable
amendment from time to time any provision which may reasonably be requested by any
Mortgagee for the purpose of implementing the mortgagee -protection provisions contained in
this Ground Lease and allowing such Mortgagee reasonable means to protect or preserve the lien

way affect the Term under this Ground Lease nor otherwise in any material respect adversely
affect any rights of Landlord under this Ground Lease.
(12) The parties shall not amend this Ground Lease without the
consent of the Mortgagees and Investor of Tenant. Landlord shall not terminate this Ground

shall be subject to the provisions of this Ground Lease and all rights of Landlord under this
Ground Lease.
(e) No Mortgagee or its designee or transferee shall be or become
liable to Landlord as an assignee of this Ground Lease or otherwise unless it expressly assumes
by written instrument executed by Landlord and the Mortgagee or its designee or transferee such
liability (in which event the Mortgagee's, designee's or transferee's liability shall be limited to
the period of time during which it is the owner of the leasehold estate created hereby) and no
assumption shall be inferred from or result from acceptance of an estoppel certificate from
Landlord, acceptance of a Mortgage of Tenant's leasehold estate, or by foreclosure or other
appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof or as the result of any other action or remedy
provided for by such Leasehold Mortgage or other instrument or from a conveyance from Tenant
pursuant to which the purchaser at foreclosure or grantee shall acquire the rights and interest of
Tenant under the ternis of this Ground Lease. If any Mortgagee (or its affiliate or nominee)
acquires the Property by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, or obtains a new lease under
this Section 17, the Rent shall be One Dollar ($1.00) for each Rental Period until the
"Conversion Date" (as defined in the first mortgage loan documents); thereafter, the Rent
payable shall be fifty percent (50%) of the Residual Receipts, if any, for the subject Rental
Period, except that Operating Expenses, Debt Service, Reserve Deposits and Partnership Related
Fees shall be calculated based upon the actual amounts of operating expenses, debt service,
reserve deposits and partnership related fees, respectively, incurred by the Tenant (without
giving effect the limitations contained in the definitions of those terns or other provisions of this
Lease). Additionally, the Rent shall include all of the following:(i) fifty percent (50%) of the
Refinancing Net Proceeds immediately upon any refinancing of the Project (or part thereof), and
(ii) one hundred percent (100%) of the Transfer Net Proceeds immediately upon any transfer in

benefit of creditors of the prior Tenant;

(4) Filing a petition by, for or against Tenant under any chapter
of the federal Bankruptcy Act or any federal or state debtor relief statute, as amended; and
(5) Any other defaults personal to Tenant and/or not otherwise
reasonably curable by Mortgagee.
(g) A Foreclosure Transferee shall succeed to all interest of Tenant in
any security or other deposits or other impound payments paid by Tenant to Landlord, except to
the extent such security or other deposit or impound payment is used by Landlord to cure an
Event of Default of Tenant hereunder.
(h) Foreclosure of any Mortgage or any sale thereunder, whether by
judicial proceedings or by virtue of any power of sale contained in such Mortgage, or any
conveyance of the leasehold estate under this Ground Lease from Tenant to a Foreclosure
Transferee in lieu of foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof, shall not
require the consent of Landlord or constitute a breach of any provision or a default under this
Ground Lease. Landlord shall recognize the Foreclosure Transferee as the Tenant under this
Ground Lease following any such transfer, subject to the obligations of the Foreclosure
Transferee to comply with this Ground Lease.
17.11 Cost of Loans to be Paid by Tenant. The Tenant affirms that it shall bear all of
the costs and expenses in connection with (i) the preparation and securing of the Mortgage loans,

reasonably incurred by Landlord in making any amendments of this Lease requested by Tenant
or Mortgagees.
17.12 No Merger. There shall be no merger, without the consent of the Mortgagee
under any Mortgage, of the leasehold estate and the fee estate in the Property merely because
both estates are acquired or become vested in the same person or entity.
17.13 Transfer Rights. Foreclosure of any Mortgage, or any sale thereunder, whether
by judicial proceedings or by virtue of any power contained in the Mortgage, or any conveyance
of the leasehold estate hereunder from Tenant to any Mortgagee or an affiliate of Mortgagee or
entity controlled by Mortgagee, through, or in lieu of, foreclosure or other appropriate
proceedings in the nature thereof, shall not require the consent of Landlord or constitute a breach
of any provision of or a default under this Ground Lease, and upon such foreclosure, sale or
conveyance, Landlord shall recognize the purchaser or other transferee in connection therewith
as the Tenant hereunder. The Foreclosure Transferee may transfer to another party one time
without the approval of Landlord. Any further assignments shall require the approval of the
Landlord, which shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned, or delayed.
ARTICLE 18. SUBLEASING.
18.1 Subleasing of Property. All subleases made by Tenant to residents of units in
the Project ("Resident Leases") shall be in compliance with the applicable (if any) regulations of
the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee and the applicable (if any) requirements of the
882MI5610-0047 -44-
J
111183805 at 2/29110 ... r
Tax Credit Regulatory Agreement, and shall be subject to the following provisions and
restrictions:
18.1.1 Each Resident Lease shall contain a provision, satisfactory to Landlord,
requiring the Subtenant to attorn to Landlord upon (a) an Event of Default by Tenant under this
Ground Lease, and (b) receipt by such Subtenant of written notice of such Event of Default and
instructions to make such Subtenant's rental payments to Landlord.
18.1.2 On any termination of this Ground Lease prior to the expiration of the
Term, all of Tenant's interest as sublessor under any and all existing valid and enforceable
Resident Leases for which Landlord has issued a non -disturbance agreement shall be deemed
automatically assigned, transferred and conveyed to Landlord and subtenants under such
Resident Leases shall be deemed to have attorned to Landlord. Landlord shall thereafter be
bound on such Resident Leases to the same extent Tenant, as sublessor, was bound thereunder
and Landlord shall have all the rights under such Resident Leases that Tenant, as sublessor, had
under such Resident Leases; provided, however, that any amendments to any such Resident
Lease made after the issuance of a non -disturbance agreement to a subtenant shall not be binding
on Landlord.
18.1.3 Each Resident Lease shall expressly provide that it is subject to each and
all of the covenants, conditions, restrictions and provisions of this Ground Lease.
18.2 Rights of Mortgagees. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Ground
Lease to the contrary, all attornment provisions applicable to the Landlord shall also be
applicable to a Mortgagee and, as between Landlord and the Mortgagee, the Mortgagee shall
have priority in any attornment situation.
ARTICLE 19. PERFORMANCE OF TENANT'S COVENANTS.
19.1 Right of Performance. If Tenant shall at any time fail to pay any Imposition or

notice, or without notice, as may be reasonable under the circumstances) and without waiving or
releasing Tenant from any obligation of Tenant hereunder, may (but shall not be required to):
(a) pay such Imposition or other charge payable by Tenant pursuant to
the provisions of Article 4 hereof, or

the contrary, all of the performance rights available to Landlord under Section 19.1 shall also be

19.1 and all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with the performance of any
such act, together with interest thereon at the rate provided in Section 4.7 from the respective
dates of Landlord's making of each such payment or incurring of each such cost or expense,
shall constitute additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Ground Lease and shall be paid by
Tenant to Landlord on demand. Landlord shall not be limited in the proof of any damages which
Landlord may claim against Tenant arising out of or by reason of Tenant's failure to provide and
keep in force insurance as aforesaid, to the amount of the insurance premium or premiums not
paid or incurred by Tenant and which would have been payable upon such insurance, but
Landlord shall also be entitled to recover as damages for such breach, the uninsured amount of
any loss (to the extent required to be insured against pursuant to the terms of this Ground Lease
of any deficiency in the insurance required by the provisions of this Ground Lease), damages,
costs and expenses of suit, including reasonable attorneys' fees, suffered or incurred by reason of

Section 22.1, constitute an Event of Default hereunder:
20.1.1 If Tenant shall default in the payment of any Rent when and as the same

Landlord shall have given written notice thereof to Tenant; or
20.1.2 If Tenant shall materially default under one or more of the Transaction

Landlord has given Tenant written notice of such default or such longer period as may be granted
Tenant under such document to cure such default; or
20.1.3 The abandonment or vacation of the Property by Tenant for a period of
thirty (30) days after prior written notice thereof by Landlord; or

other similar official of Tenant or any Assignee (unless such appointment is in connection with a
Mortgagee's exercise of its remedies under its Mortgage), or of any substantial part of the
property of Tenant or such Assignee, or the ordering or winding up or liquidating of the affairs of
Tenant or any Assignee and the continuance of such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a

882/015610-0047 -46-
1111838 05 al2/29/10 1,57
any other applicable state or federal law or consent by Tenant or any such Assignee to the entry
of any order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or consent by Tenant or any
such Assignee to the appointment of or taking of possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee,
trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of Tenant or any such Assignee, or of any
substantial property of any of the foregoing, or the making by Tenant or any such Assignee of
any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or Tenant or any such Assignee takes any
other voluntary action related to the business of Tenant or any such Assignee or the winding up
of the affairs of any of the foregoing.
20.1.5 If Tenant shall materially default in the performance of or compliance
with any other term, covenant or condition of this Ground Lease (other than as set forth in
Sections 20.1.1 and 20.1.2) and such default shall continue for more than thirty (30) days after
Landlord shall have given written notice thereof to Tenant, provided, however, if cure of such
default reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days, then, provided that Tenant commences to
cure within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and continuously prosecutes the
cure to completion, Tenant shall not be in default.
20.1.6 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Ground Lease,
prior to declaring any default or taking any remedy permitted under this Ground Lease or
applicable law based upon an alleged default under this Ground Lease by Tenant, Landlord shall
deliver written notice to Tenant's limited partners of Tenant's failure to cure such default, and
Tenant's limited partners shall have an additional period of not less than (a) ten (10) days from
the date of such notice to cure such alleged default if of a monetary nature, and (b) thirty (30)
days from the date of such notice to cure such alleged default if of a nonmonetary nature;
provided, however, if in order to cure such a default the limited partners must remove the general
partner of Tenant, the limited partner shall so notify Landlord and so long as the limited partner
is diligently and continuously attempting to so remove such general partner, the limited partner
shall have until the date thirty (30) days after the effective date of the removal of the general
partner or general partners to cure such default.
Nothing herein shall be deemed to permit Landlord to terminate this Ground Lease
without the Investor's consent prior to expiration of the fifteen (15) year Tax Credit compliance
period described in Section 42(i)(1) of the Code.
20.2 Remedies.
20.2.1 If an Event of Default shall occur and continue as aforesaid, then in
addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, but subject to Article 17,
Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Ground Lease and bring suit against
Tenant and recover as an award in such suit or arbitration proceeding the following:
(a) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid rent and all other sums
due hereunder which had been earned at the time of termination;
(b) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
rent and all other sums due hereunder which would have been earned after termination until the
882/015610-0047
-47-
111183805 a12/29110 ,. Q
time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been
reasonably avoided;
(c) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
rent and all other sums due hereunder for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds
the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided;
(d) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the
detriment proximately caused by the Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this
Ground Lease or which in the ordinary course of things could be likely to result therefrom; and
(e) such amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be
permitted from time to time by applicable California law.
20.2.2 The "worth at the time of the award" of the amounts referred to in
Subparagraphs 20.2.1(a) and 20.2.1(b) above shall be computed by allowing interest at the rate
provided in Section 4.7 as of the date of the award. The "worth at the time of award" of the
amount referred to in subparagraph 20.2.1(c) above shall be computed by discounting such
amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award
plus one percent (1 %).
20.3 Receipt of Rent, No Waiver of Default. The receipt by Landlord of the rents or
any other charges due to Landlord, with knowledge of any breach of this Ground Lease by
Tenant or of any default on the part of Tenant in the observance or performance of any of the
conditions or covenants of this Ground Lease, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any
provisions of this Ground Lease. No acceptance by Landlord of a lesser sum than the rents or
any other charges then due shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest installment
of the rents or other charges due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any
letter accompanying any check or payment of rent or charges due be deemed an accord and
satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's
right to recover the balance of such installment or pursue any other remedy provided in this
Ground Lease. The receipt by Landlord of any rent or any other sum of money or any other
consideration paid by Tenant after the termination of this Ground Lease, or after giving by
Landlord of any notice hereunder to effect such termination, shall not, except as otherwise
expressly set forth in this Ground Lease, reinstate, continue, or extend the term of this Ground
Lease, or destroy, or in any manner impair the efficacy of any such notice of termination as may
have been given hereunder by Landlord to Tenant prior to the receipt of any such sum of money
or other consideration, unless so agreed to in writing and signed by Landlord. Neither
acceptance of the keys nor any other act or thing done by Landlord or by its agents or employees
during the Tern shall be deemed to be an acceptance of a surrender of the Property or the
Improvements, excepting only an agreement in writing signed by Landlord accepting or agreeing
to accept such a surrender.
20.4 Effect on Indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in
this Article 20 shall be construed to limit Landlord's and/or the City's right to indemnification as
otherwise provided in this Ground Lease.

ARTICLE 21. PERMITTED CONTESTS.
Tenant, at no cost or expense to Landlord, may contest(after prior written notice to
Landlord), by appropriate legal proceedings conducted with due diligence, the amount or validity
or application, in whole or in part, of any Imposition or lien, provided that (a) in the case of liens
of mechanics, materialmen, suppliers or vendors, or Impositions or liens therefor, such
proceedings shall suspend the collection thereof from Landlord, and shall suspend a foreclosure
against the Property and/or the Improvements, or any interest therein, or any Rent, if any, (b)
neither the Property or the Improvements, nor any part thereof or interest therein, or the Rent, if
any, or any portion thereof, would be in any danger of being sold, forfeited or lost by reason of
such proceedings, and (c) Tenant shall have furnished to Landlord, if requested, a bond or other
security, satisfactory to Landlord. If Tenant shall fail to contest any such matters, or to give
Landlord security as hereinabove provided, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, contest
the matter or settle or compromise the same without inquiring into the validity or the
reasonableness thereof. Landlord, at the sole cost and expense of Tenant, will cooperate with
Tenant and execute any documents or pleadings legally required for any such contest.
ARTICLE 22. FORCE MAJEURE.
22.1 Delay of Performance. Subject to Paragraph 23.2 below, any prevention, delay,
nonperformance or stoppage by Tenant due to any of the following causes shall be excused: any

municipal or foreign government or any department or agency thereof, or civil or military
authority; acts of God; acts or omissions of Landlord or its agents or employees; fire, explosion
or floods; strikes, walkouts or inability to obtain materials; war, terrorism, riots, sabotage or civil
insurrection; or any other causes beyond the reasonable control of Tenant.
22.2 Notice and Cure Requirements. No prevention, delay, or stoppage of
performance shall be excused unless:
(a) Tenant notifies Landlord within thirty (30) days of such
prevention, delay or stoppage that it is claiming excuse of its obligations under this Article 22;
and
(b) Tenant diligently proceeds within thirty (30) days of the
conclusion of such prevention, delay or stoppage to cure the condition causing the prevention,
delay or stoppage; and
(c) Tenant effects such cure within a reasonable time.

Landlord's or Tenant's interest under this Ground Lease. Tenant will also deliver to Landlord,
promptly upon request, such information with respect to the Property or any part thereof as from
time to time may reasonably be requested.
23.3 No Merger of Title. There shall be no merger of this Ground Lease or the
leasehold estate created by this Ground Lease with any other estate in the Property or any part
thereof by reason of the fact that the same person, firm, corporation or other entity may acquire
or own or hold, directly or indirectly:(a) this Ground Lease or the leasehold estate created by this
Ground Lease or any interest in this Ground Lease or in any such leasehold estate, and (b) any
other estate in the Property and the Improvements or any part thereof or any interest in such

shall join in a written instrument effecting such merger and shall duly record the same.

quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Property during the term of this Ground Lease without
hindrance or molestation by Landlord, or any person or persons claiming through Landlord.
23.6 No Claims Against Landlord. Nothing contained in this Ground Lease shall
constitute any consent or request by Landlord, express or implied, for the performance of any
182/015610-0047 -51-
1111838.05 at2/29/10 162
aap .
labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Property or
any part thereof, nor as giving Tenant any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the

in respect thereof.
23.7 Inspection. Landlord and its authorized representatives may enter the Property or
any part thereof at all reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting, servicing or posting

in full force and effect, or the rights of Landlord with respect to any other then existing or
subsequent default.
23.9 Holding Over. In the event Tenant shall hold over or remain in possession of the

contrary provided in this Ground Lease, including, without limitation, the remedies provisions
set forth in Section 20.2 above, it is specifically understood and agreed that there shall be no
personal liability or obligation on the part of any partner of Tenant or any assignee or successor
in interest of the partners of Tenant hereunder (including, without limitation, any mortgagee,
trustee or beneficiary under any mortgage or deed of trust which may acquire Tenant's interest
under this Ground Lease through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure or any purchaser at a
foreclosure sale) with respect to the provisions of this Ground Lease relating to the payment of
Rent or performance of any other obligations under this Ground Lease; but that Landlord and all
those claiming by, through or under Landlord, its successors and assigns, shall look solely to the
interest of Tenant, its successors and assigns in this Ground Lease and the Improvements, for the
satisfaction of each and every provision and each and every right, privilege or remedy of
Landlord or any other party, in the event of any breach or default of Tenant or any assignee or
successor in interest of any of the provisions made by or to be performed by the Tenant.
However, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that this exculpation of personal liability of the
partners of Tenant for the payment of Rent shall in no way limit the exercise of Landlord's other
remedies, including, without limitation, termination of this Ground Lease.
23.11 No Partnership. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding,

investigation as required herein) rent an Affordable Unit in violation of the leasing preference
requirements of Section 4.06 of this Regulatory Agreement. In the event Developer violates this

(2) months of rental charges.

Director with Certificates of Insurance or appropriate insurance binders evidencing the above
insurance coverages and said Certificates of Insurance or binders shall be subject to the
reasonable approval of the Executive Director.
(b) The policies of insurance required by this Regulatory Agreement shall be
satisfactory only if issued by companies of recognized good standing authorized to do business
in California, rated "A-" or better in the most recent edition of Best Rating Guide, The Key
Rating Guide or in the Federal Register, and only if they are of a financial category Class VII or
better, unless such requirements are waived by the Executive Director, in consultation with the
City's Risk Consultant through the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority due to unique
circumstances.
(c) The Executive Director, in consultation with the City's Risk Consultant
through the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority, is hereby authorized to reduce or
otherwise modify Developer's insurance requirements set forth herein in the event they
collectively determine, in their sole and absolute discretion, that such reduction or modification
is consistent with reasonable commercial practices.
(d) The Developer agrees that the provisions of this Section shall not be
construed as limiting in any way the Agency's right to indemnification or the extent to which the
Developer may be held responsible for the payment of damages to any persons or property
resulting from the Developer's activities or the activities of any person or persons for which the
Developer is otherwise responsible.
14.07 Indemnification. Developer shall defend (by counsel satisfactory to
Agency), assume all responsibility for and hold the Agency and the City, and their
respective officers, officials, members, agents, representatives, and employees, harmless
from all claims or suits for, and damages to, property and injuries to persons, including
accidental death (including expert witness fees, attorneys fees and costs), which may be
caused by the activities or performance of Developer or any of Developer's employees,
agents, representatives, contractors, or subcontractors under (i) this Regulatory
Agreement, (ii) a claim, demand or cause of action that any person has or asserts against
Developer; (iii) any act or omission of Developer, any contractor, subcontractor or
material supplier, engineer, architect or other person with respect to the Property; or (iv)
the leasehold, occupancy or use of the Property by Developer, whether such damage shall
accrue or be discovered before or after termination of this Regulatory Agreement. The
obligations and indemnifications in this Section 14.07 shall constitute covenants running
with the land.
SECTION 15. ASSIGNMENT.
15.01 Generally Prohibited. Except as otherwise expressly provided to the
contrary in this Regulatory Agreement, Developer shall not assign any of its rights or
delegate any of its duties under this Regulatory Agreement, nor shall any changes occur

o. 202
stock transfers, sales of issuances, or transfers, sales or issuances of membership or
ownership interests, or statutory conversions, without the prior written consent of the
Executive Director, which consent may be withheld in his or her sole and absolute
discretion. Any such assignment or delegation without such consent shall, at Agency's
option, be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Developer may admit
Developer's Tax Credit investor as a 99.99% Tax Credit limited partner without
obtaining any consent.
15.02 Release of Developer. Upon any such assignment made in compliance
with Section 15.01 above, Developer shall be released from any liability under this
Regulatory Agreement arising from and after the date of such assignment.
SECTION 16. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES.
16.01 Default. Subject to the extensions of time set forth in Section 17.02 of this
Regulatory Agreement, failure by either Party to perform any action or covenant required
by this Regulatory Agreement or under the DDA or under the Ground Lease within the
time periods provided herein and therein following Notice and failure to cure as
described hereafter, constitutes a "Default" under this Regulatory Agreement. A Party
claiming a Default shall give written Notice of Default to the other Party specifying such
Default. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Regulatory Agreement or in the
DDA or in the Ground Lease, the claimant shall not institute any proceeding against any
other Party, and the other Party shall not be in Default if such party within thirty (30)
days from receipt of such Notice, cures, corrects or remedies such failure or delay, or if
such Default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, such Party commences
such cure within thirty (30) days of receipt of such Notice and thereafter diligently
prosecutes such cure to completion.
16.02 Remedies• Institution of Legal Actions. Developer's sole remedy for
Agency's breach of this Regulatory Agreement shall be to institute an action at law or
equity to seek specific performance of the terms of this Regulatory Agreement.
Developer shall not be entitled to recover damages for any Default of Agency hereunder.
Agency shall be entitled to seek any remedy available at law and in equity for
Developer's breach of this Regulatory Agreement. All legal actions must be instituted in
the Superior Court of the County of Riverside, State of California, or in the United States
District Court for District of California in which Riverside County is located.
16.03 Termination by Agency. In the event that Developer is in Default of this
Regulatory Agreement, the DDA, or the Ground Lease and (i) such Default is material
and (ii) Developer fails to cure such Default within the time set forth in Section 16.01
hereof, then Agency may, at Agency's option, terminate this Regulatory Agreement.
16.04 Acceptance of Service of Process. In the event that any legal action is
commenced by Developer against Agency, service of process on Agency shall be made
by personal service upon the Executive Director or in such other manner as may be
provided by law. In the event that any legal action is commenced by Agency against
Developer, service of process on Developer shall be made in such manner as may be

16.05 Rights and Remedies Are Cumulative. Except as otherwise expressly
stated in this Regulatory Agreement, the rights and remedies of the Parties are
cumulative, and the exercise by either Party of one or more of such rights or remedies
shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or
remedies for the same Default or any other Default by the other Party.
16.06 Inaction Not a Waiver of Default. Any failures or delays by either Party
in asserting any of its rights and remedies as to any Default shall not operate as a waiver
of any Default or of any such rights or remedies, or deprive either such Party of its right
to institute and maintain any actions or proceedings which it may deem necessary to
protect, assert or enforce any such rights or remedies.
16.07 Applicable Law. The internal laws of the State of California shall govern
the interpretation and enforcement of this Regulatory Agreement, without regard to
conflict of law principles.

17.02 Enforced Delay; Extension of Times of Performance. In addition to
specific provisions of this Regulatory Agreement, performance by either Party hereunder
shall not be deemed to be in Default, and all performance and other dates specified in this
Regulatory Agreement shall be extended, where delays or Defaults are due to: war;
insurrection; strikes; lockouts; riots; floods; earthquakes; fires; casualties; acts of God;
acts of the public enemy; epidemics; quarantine; restrictions; freight embargoes; lack of
transportation; governmental restrictions or priority; litigation; unusually severe weather;
inability to secure necessary labor, materials or tools; delays of any contractor,
subcontractor or supplier; acts or omissions of the other Party; acts or failures to act of
the City or any other public or governmental agency or entity (other than the acts or
failures to act of Agency which shall not excuse performance by Agency); or any other
causes beyond the control or without the fault of the Party claiming an extension of time
to perform. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Regulatory Agreement, an
extension of time for any such cause shall be for the period of the enforced delay and
shall commence to run from the time of the commencement of the cause, if notice by the
Party claiming such extension is sent to the other party within ten (10) days of the
commencement of the cause. Times of performance under this Regulatory Agreement
may also be extended in writing by the mutual agreement of Agency and Developer.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Regulatory Agreement to the contrary, the lack of
funding to complete the construction of the Project shall not constitute grounds of
enforced delay pursuant to this Section.
17.03 Relationship Between Agency and Developer. It is hereby acknowledged
by Developer that the relationship between Agency and Developer is not that of a
partnership or joint venture and that Agency and Developer shall not be deemed or
882/015610-0047 -32-

construed for any purpose to be the agent of the other. Accordingly, except as expressly
provided herein or in the Attachments hereto, Agency shall have no rights, powers, duties
or obligations with respect to the development, operation, maintenance or management of
the Housing Development. Developer agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend
Agency from any claim made against Agency arising from a claimed relationship of
partnership or joint venture between Agency and Developer with respect to the
development, operation, maintenance or management of the Property or the Housing
Development, except to the extent occasioned by the active negligence or willful
misconduct of Agency or its designated agents or employees.

that no rights nor remedies be granted to any third party as a beneficiary of this
Regulatory Agreement or of any covenant, duty, obligation or undertaking established
herein.
17.05 Agency Approvals and Actions. Whenever a reference is made herein to

entire understanding and agreement of the Parties, notwithstanding any previous
negotiations or agreements between the parties or their predecessors in interest with
respect to all or any part of the subject matter hereof.

represent and warrant to the other that no broker or finder is entitled to any commission
or finder's fee in connection with this transaction, and each agrees to defend and hold
harmless the other from any claim to any such commission or fee resulting from any
action on its part.

must be in writing by the appropriate authorities of Developer and Agency. A waiver by
either Party of a breach of any of the covenants, conditions or agreements under this
Regulatory Agreement to be performed by the other Party shall not be construed as a
waiver of any succeeding breach of the same or other covenants, agreements, restrictions
or conditions of this Regulatory Agreement.
17.13 Modifications. Any alteration, change or modification of or to this
Regulatory Agreement, in order to become effective, shall be made in writing and in each
instance signed on behalf of each Party.
17.14 Severability. If any term, provision, condition or covenant of this
Regulatory Agreement or its application to any party or circumstances shall be held, to
any extent, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Regulatory Agreement, or the
application of the term, provision, condition or covenant to persons or circumstances
other than those as to whom or which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be
affected, and shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Regulatory Agreement is computed by excluding the first day (such as the day escrow

SUMMARY REPORT
Disposition and Development Agreement
Coral Mountain Partners, L.P.
and the
La Quinta Redevelopment Agency
December 21, 2010
INTRODUCTION
This document is the Summary Report ("Report") for the Disposition and Development
Agreement ("Agreement") by and between Coral Mountain Partners, L.P. ("Developer")
and the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency ("Agency'). The Agreement facilitates a long
term ground lease of 9.33 net acres of property ("Site"), and the development and
operation thereon of a 176 multi -family residential complex ("Development"). The Site is
located east of Dune Palms Road, south of Highway 111, west of the Costco Center,
and north of the Desert Sands Unified School District's Administrative office. The
dwellings will be affordable to very low-, low- and moderate -income households.
This Report has been prepared pursuant to Section 33433 of the California Community
Redevelopment Law ("CRL") and presents the following:
• A summary of the proposed Development.
• The cost of the Agreement to the Agency.
• The estimated value of the interest to be conveyed, determined at the highest
and best uses permitted by the Agency's Redevelopment Plan.
An explanation of why the lease of the property pursuant to the Agreement will
assist in the elimination of blight.
THE DEVELOPMENT
City and Agency Housing Mandates
Both the City of La Quinta ("City") and the Agency are mandated by the State of
California to continually seek opportunities to increase and improve the supply of
housing affordable to very low-, low- and moderate -income households. State Planning
Laws mandate that the City pursue a housing mix that accommodates both local and
regional housing demand for affordable dwellings. The CRL provides that the Agency
insure that a minimum of 15% of all new and substantially rehabilitated dwellings within
its redevelopment project areas are affordable to very low-, low- and moderate -income
households, and of these, 40% must be affordable to very low-income households. If
233
these dwellings are owner occupied, they must be affordable for 45 years; if they are
rental units, they must remain affordable for 55 years.
The Site
The Site is located in La Quinta Redevelopment Project Area No. 2 ("Project Area No.
2"), and was part of a larger 19.97 acre parcel. Up until the 1940's, the parcel was
undeveloped; in the 1940's the eastern half of the parcel was converted to agricultural
uses with two accessory structures, likely water tanks. The agricultural uses were
terminated prior to 1974, at which point a trailer park, including a pool and two
permanent structures, was operational in the northern section of the parcel. However,
by 1980, residential occupancy at the trailer park had dwindled, with only a dozen or so
trailers remaining. This minimal population remained until the early 2000's, when the
final trailers vacated the site and all structures were removed. The Agency purchased
the property in 2007 to facilitate the development of affordable housing and infill
commercial development, both of which are identified as goals in the adopted
Redevelopment Plan.
Project Description
Site development is governed by the Highway 111 and Dune Palms Road Specific Plan
0808-5 ("Specific Plan"). The General Plan designates the Site as Commercial Park,
and the Specific Plan designates the Site as High Density Residential (RH), which
allows up to 16 units per acre. When combined with the 35% density bonus provided
for in LQMC Section 9.60.270, the Site may accommodate 201 units.
The proposed Development will entail 176 one-, two- and three -bedroom units housed
in 11 buildings. The proposed unit mix will be 40 one -bedroom, 82 two -bedroom, and
54 three -bedroom units. Covered surface parking will be provided as well as a pool,
community room and ample open space areas. The development will feature modern
architecture to compliment the Costco center to the east and Desert Sands Unified
School District facilities to the south. In addition, the Development is conditioned to
construct a two-lane public road along the west and northern boundaries, and a storm
water drainage system that eliminates the need to reserve property for on -site storm
water retention, and will facilitate storm water drainage into the La Quinta Evacuation
Channel. Non -housing set aside funds will be used to design and construct the storm
water drainage system that will serve the northern commercial parcel.
Affordable Housing Mix
The Developer will be using 4% tax credit financing to fund a portion of the design and
construction costs. In order to qualify for this financing, 174 dwellings will be affordable
to very low- and low-income family households; the remaining 2 dwellings (the on -site
manager units) will be affordable to moderate -income households.
2 234
The dwellings will remain affordable to said households for a minimum of 55 years. In
order to accommodate Federal tax requirements, the term of the Agency's ground lease
may be extended for an additional 20 years (in order to repay the Agency Loan as
described later in this Report). If the lease term is extended, then the Agreement
provides that the dwellings will remain affordable to very low, low and moderate income
households for the extended term of the lease (up to 75 years). Thirty-six units will be
affordable to very low-income family households, 138 dwellings will be affordable to low-
income family households, and 2 dwellings will be affordable to moderate -income family
households.
In 2010, very low-income is defined as households who earn $22,750 (one person) to
$35,100 (five person); low-income is defined as households who earn $36,400 (one
person) to $56,200 (five person); and moderate -income is defined as households who
earn $56,400 (one person) to $84,250 (five person).
THE COST OF THE AGREEMENT TO THE AGENCY
The cost of the Agreement to the Agency will be $39,023,868; $9,347,545 in land cost
(as detailed below), $676,323 in engineering, planning and environmental expenses
(outlined in the Planning Cost section below) and $29,000,000 in project design and
development costs (outlined in the Development Cost section below). The $29,000,000
of Agency development cost investment will be secured by a deed of trust that will
accrue interest at 1% ("Agency Loan"); further, the Agreement provides that the Agency
will review and approve all development budgets as they are refined through the
construction bid process, and the Agency will participate in any cost savings the
Developer may achieve through the construction process. The $29,000,000 of Agency
investment will be disbursed as follows: $2,421,978 to fund predevelopment costs;
$5,037,754 to fund costs associated with securing building permits and to secure the
bond financing; $12,140,412 to fund construction costs once the Development is 50%
complete; and $9,399,857 when the construction financing is converted to permanent
financing.
Per the Agreement, the Agency Loan will be repaid by the Developer through a
combination of the Agency receiving 50% of the residual receipt payments (revenue that
remains after operating costs and debt service payments on the permanent mortgage),
and the value of the Site and the Development at the conclusion of the Ground Lease.
The fee ownership of the Site and Development will revert to the City once the Ground
Lease terminates. Following industry standards for 4% tax credit transactions, the
Agency has agreed to an allocation of the residual receipt income of 50% to the Agency
and 50% to the Developer. The residual receipt income is projected to be $95,413 in
year 3 of operation, $149,619 in year 10 of operation, $207,177 in year 20 of operation,
and $341,055 in year 55 of operation; the Agency would receive 50% of this income.

Property Acquisition
The Agency purchased the larger 19.97 acre parcel in 2007 for $20,006,759 or $23.00
per square foot of land area. Applying the $23.00 per square foot land cost to the 9.33
acre Site yields a land purchase cost of $9,347,545. Project Area No. 2 Low- and
Moderate -Income Housing Fund revenue was used to fund acquisition costs of the Site.
Site Planning Costs
Subsequent to acquiring the property, the Agency proceeded to design the required
roadway improvements, commissioned a specific plan, and prepared and processed an
environmental impact report in order to position the commercial and residential parcels
for development. The Agency expended $1,352,646 for the total effort related to these
activities and of this amount $676,323 is allocated to the Site.
Development Costs
The Developer projects final design and construction costs, not including land, of
$50,350,270 or $286,082 per unit. The sources of funds are as follows: $29,000,000 of
Agency Low- and Moderate -Income Housing Fund proceeds, $13,347,696 of 4% Tax
Credit Investor Funds, and a $7,933,689 permanent mortgage supported by unit rent
income.
Source and Cost of Agency Funds
The Agency is using accrued funds from the Agency's Low- and Moderate -Income
Housing Fund. No bond funds or other funding sources have been used to acquire the
Site or finance the site planning activities, nor will bond or other funds be used to
underwrite the $29,000,000 of development costs funded by the Agency.
ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE INTEREST TO BE CONVEYED
The Agency obtained an appraisal from Capital Realty Advisors. This report identified a
value opinion, as of October 25, 2010, of $12.00 per square foot of land area or
$4,876,980 for the Site.
ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE INTEREST TO BE CONVEYED, DETERMINED AT THE
USE AND WITH THE CONDITIONS, COVENANTS AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS
REQUIRED BY THE AGREEMENT
The Agency will be leasing the Site to the Developer. The ground lease payments will
be $1.00 per year until the Agency Loan is repaid; when repaid, the ground lease
payments will be 50% of the residual receipt income.
