SUBJECT: ARCADIA REDEDVELOPMENT AGENCY RESOLUTION NO. ARA
238 APPROVING AN OWNER PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT
BETWEEN ARCADIA COMMONS, L.P. AND THE ARCADIA
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FOR THE CAMPUS COMMONS
SENIOR HOUSING PROJECT
Recommendation: Approve ARA Resolution No. 238
BACKGROUND
The Campus Commons housing project is a 43 -unit development for low and very low
income senior citizens. It is located at 16 Campus Drive, and is being developed by a
partnership of Davila Properties and Ashwood Construction, known for this project as
Arcadia Commons, L.P. The project received its entitlements from the City Council at
the July 6 meeting. During a study session on July 6, the Agency Board gave
conceptual approval to providing up to $6.9 million in Agency low and moderate income
housing funds to fill a funding gap and make the project financially feasible. Based on
the project entitlements and the conceptual funding approval, the Agency and
developers have negotiated an Owner Participation Agreement to document the project,
the Agency's financial participation, and the responsibilities of the parties in bringing the
project to fruition.
An Owner Participation Agreement (OPA) is a common document that is utilized when
the Redevelopment Agency is not a property owner but is a financial partner with the
property owner /developer. An OPA was used for the Heritage Park senior housing
project on Las Tunas Boulevard to document the Agency's long term loan to insure
financial feasibility. The Campus Commons senior housing project is similar because
the developer is acquiring the project site but needs a long term loan from the Agency's
low /mod housing fund to make the project financially feasible.
The developers of the Campus Commons project have requested a long term loan of up
to $6.9 million from the Agency. As mentioned above, the Agency Board gave
conceptual approval to this amount on July 6. Because the Redevelopment Law
includes rules requiring the use of Agency low /mod funds based on the proportion of
lower income residents to the overall City population, the Agency cannot invest all of the
$6.9 million up front. The most that can currently be loaned to the project is $3,544,435.
The remaining $3,335,565 can be loaned to the project in 2015. This rule regarding
proportionality was discussed during the July 6 Study Session.
During the July 6 Agency Study Session, the developers explained that they would need
the remaining Agency funds before 2015. The funds will be required once the project is
open, occupied, and has operated at stabilized occupancy for six months. At that time,
the developers will convert from a construction loan to permanent financing and would
require the remaining Agency funds. However since the Agency cannot legally loan
these remaining funds until 2015, the developers are working with their bank to arrange
a "bridge" loan that would provide funds when needed. The bridge loan would be repaid
by the Agency in 2015 when it is legally permitted to expend additional low /mod funds
on senior housing. The Agency would also be responsible for any interest on the loan
and any fees from the lender.
The developers also explained that the $6.9 million request included interest and bank
fees for the bridge loan. They anticipate that the principal amount of the bridge loan will
be at most $2.9 million, with the possibility that it could be reduced from that level.
Reductions could include the developers delaying the receipt of some developer fees
until 2015, the receipt by the developers of tax credit proceeds in excess of the amount
in its budget, and a reduction in overall project costs below the budgeted amounts. The
OPA includes these parameters for the bridge loan so that any loan that is ultimately
arranged will meet these requirements.
The OPA memorializes the details of the long term loan from the Agency's low /mod
housing fund to the project and the repayment from residual receipts over 55 years.
This is included in the OPA and in a Loan Agreement that will also be executed by the
parties. Other aspects of the OPA are the scope of development, a project timeline,
details regarding the guarantor of the Agency's long term loan, a development budget,
the marketing plan and certification of income qualification for the applicants, and the
certificate of completion that the Agency will issue when its requirements under the OPA
are met. The purpose of the OPA is to make sure each party understands the
obligations and expectations of the other party, to end up with the project that the
Agency wants, and to create a process to resolve any disputes or issues that were not
anticipated. From the Agency's perspective, the OPA protects its interests and funds.
As a result, the document is lengthy and detailed.
The next steps for the project include continuing to work on the bridge loan, and the
developers completing their financing, proceeding with the purchase of the site,
relocation of the tenants, and development of construction drawings towards the
issuance of a building permit. Construction would probably begin late this year or early
ARA Resolution No. 238

2011, depending on the timing to complete relocation and demolition of the existing
buildings, and the issuance of a building permit.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA)
The Owner Participation Agreement is not considered a project per CEQA (CEQA
Guidelines, Section 15061 (b) (3)). The Campus Commons project was approved with
a Negative Declaration on July 6, 2010 as part of the approval of the entitlements for the
project.
FISCAL IMPACT
Under the OPA, the Agency would provide a long term loan of up to $6.9 million from
the low and moderate income housing fund. There is no impact on the General Fund.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve ARA Resolution No. ARA 238 approving the Owner Participation Agreement
with Arcadia Commons, L.P. for the development of the Campus Commons senior
housing project.

to cure a default on a senior loan prior to foreclosure; (ii) the right of Agency to negotiate with a
lender after notice of default from the lender and prior to foreclosure; (iii) an agreement that if,
prior to foreclosure on a loan, the Agency takes title to the property and cures the default on the

such deficiency shall become immediately due and payable with interest at the default rate set
forth in this Agreement, determined as of and accruing from the date that said payment should
have been made. In addition, if Borrower's auditor's statement for any Development Fiscal Year
shall be found to have understated Residual Receipts by more than five percent (5 %) and at least
Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000), and the Agency is entitled to any additional Loan repayment as

finance the financing "gap" of the Project (the amount needed to pay the excess of the proposed
Project costs over the financing and other funding sources available to the Borrower for
construction and development of the Project), but in no event to provide funding (when
combined with all other sources of financing and other funding sources available to the Borrower
for construction and development of the Project) in excess of the proposed project costs as set
forth in the Approved Development Budget.
(b) Cost Reduction. If the actual Project costs are less than the proposed
project costs (the difference between the actual Project costs and the proposed Project costs
being a "Cost Reduction "), then the Cost Reduction shall be applied as follows:
(i) to the the Deferred Developer Fee unitl such time as the Deferred
Developer Fee is Two Hundred Sixty -One Thousand Two Hundred Seventy - Threee
Dollars.(261,273).
(ii) Once the Deferred Developer Fee is reduced to $261,273, all
Project Cost Reductions, after adjusting for any reduction in eligible basis, tax credits, developer
fee and syndication/investor proceeds as verified by the cost certification/audit required by
CTCAC and Agency, shall be shared equally by the Agency and Developer. The Agency
portion of the Cost Reduction shall be used to reduce the amount of assistance required to be
paid by the Agency pursuant to this Agreement or to reduce principal on the Loan. The
Developer portion of the Cost Reduction shall be applied to reduce the Deferred Developer Fee.
Arcadia Commons
ORANGE \SKLEINBERG \68259.5

(iii) At the time the Deferred Developer Fee has been paid in full, all
Project Cost Reductions, after adjustments specified in (ii) above, shall be applied to the Agency
assistance required to be paid by the Agency pursuant to this Agreement or to reduce the
principal of the Loan.
(c) Cost Increases. If the actual Project costs exceed the sum of all financing
and other funding sources available to the Borrower for construction and development of the
Project (the difference being a "Project Deficit "), the Borrower shall be solely responsible for
causing payment (either through third party financing, as approved by the Agency, or Borrower
funds) of the Project Deficit.
(d) If the actual Project costs are less than the sum of the financing and other
funding sources available to Borrower for development and construction of the Project (the
difference being a "Project Surplus "), then the Project Surplus, as verified by the cost
certification required by CTCAC and Agency, shall be applied to reduce or repay the principal
amount of the Loan. At the close of escrow for the transaction, any unexpended amount in the
Bridge Loan reserve account shall be applied to reduce the Permenant Component of the Loan.
Section 2.11 Tax Credits.
(a) Borrower proposes to qualify for and obtain 4% Tax Credits in the amount
of approximately $4,289,650 in the allocation round of October,2010, pursuant to the low -

the 4% Tax Credits. In the event Borrower fails to obtain Tax Credits by this second allocation
round, then either Agency or Borrower may terminate this Agreement as provided herein. In the
event Borrower obtains Tax Credits, Agency shall not have any responsibilities or obligations
with respect thereto. Borrower shall also comply with the requirements set forth below.

enters for construction of the Project shall provide that at least ten percent (10 %) of the costs
incurred shall be payable only upon completion of construction. The Agency's approval of the

any term or condition of the construction contract except as such term or condition may be
required by this Agreement.
b. Upon receipt by the Agency of the proposed construction contract, the
Agency shall promptly review same and approve or disapprove it within ten (10) working days.
If the construction contract is not approved by the Agency, the Agency shall set forth in writing

shall thereafter submit a revised construction contract for Agency approval, which approval shall
be granted or denied in five (5) working days in accordance with the procedures set forth above.
Any construction contract executed by the Borrower for the Development shall be in the form
approved by the Agency.
Section 3.4 Compliance with Laws. All work performed in connection with the

Section 3.6 Agency Right to Inspect Project and Property. The Agency Parties shall
have the right of reasonable access to the Property, without the payment of charges or fees,
during normal construction hours, during the period of construction or installation of the Project.
Any and all Agency representatives who enter the Property shall identify themselves at the
construction management office or, if none, to the apparent on -site construction supervisor on
the Property, upon their entrance onto the Property, and shall at all times be accompanied by a
representative of the Borrower, while on the Property. The Borrower shall make a representative
of the Borrower available for this purpose at all times during normal construction hours, upon
reasonable advance Notice from the Agency. The Agency shall indemnify and hold the
Borrower harmless from injury, property damage or liability to the extent arising out of the
exercise by the Agency of the right of access to the Property provided in this Section 3.7, except
to the extent that any such injury, property damage or liability arises from the negligence or
willful misconduct of any of the Borrower Parties. If in the Agency's reasonable judgment it is
necessary, the Agency shall have the further right, from time to time, at its own cost, to retain a
consultant or consultants to inspect the Project and verify compliance by the Borrower with the
provisions of this Agreement. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any such Agency
inspections are for the sole purpose of protecting the Agency's rights under this Agreement, are
made solely for the Agency's benefit, that the Agency's inspections may be superficial and
general in nature, and are for the purposes of informing the Agency of the progress of the Project
and the conformity of the Project with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and that the
Borrower shall not be entitled to rely on any such inspection(s) as constituting the Agency's
approval, satisfaction or acceptance of any materials, workmanship, conformity of the Project

with this Agreement or otherwise. The Borrower agrees to make its own regular inspections of
the work of construction and installation of the Project to determine that the progress and quality
of the Project and all other requirements of the work of construction and installation of the
Project are being performed in a manner satisfactory to the Borrower.
Section 3.7 Construction Pursuant to Plans and Laws.
(a) Borrower shall construct the Project in conformance with Approved Scope
of Work approved by the Agency and attached to this Agreement as Exhibit C. Borrower shall
notify the Agency in a timely manner of any changes in the work required to be performed under
this Agreement, including any additions, changes, or deletions to the plans and specifications
approved by the Agency. A written change order authorized by the Agency must be obtained
before any of the following changes, additions, or deletions in work for the Project may be
performed: (1) any change in the work the cost of which exceeds Ten Thousand Dollars
($10,000); or (2) any set of changes in the work the cost of which cumulatively exceeds Twenty -
Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000); or (3) any material change in building materials or equipment,

for in the plans and specifications approved by the Agency. Consent to any additions, changes,
or deletions to the work shall not relieve or release Borrower from any other obligations under
this Agreement, or relieve or release Borrower or its surety, if any, from any surety bond.
Agency shall utilize best efforts to approve or disapprove change orders within five (5) working
days of receipt of a request for approval. In the event any such change order is not approved or
disapproved within seven (7) working days, then such change order shall be deemed approved by
City.
(b) Borrower shall cause all work performed in connection with the
Development to be performed in compliance with (i) all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and
regulations of federal, state, county or municipal governments or agencies now in force or that
may be enacted hereafter, including (without limitation and where applicable) the prevailing
wage and other requirements of Sections 1770 et seq., of the California Labor Code and
implementing rules and regulations, and (ii) all directions, rules and regulations of any fire
marshal, health officer, building inspector, or other officer of every governmental agency now
having or hereafter acquiring jurisdiction. The work shall proceed only after procurement of
each permit, license, or other authorization that may be required by any governmental agency
having jurisdiction, and Borrower shall be responsible to the Agency for the procurement and
maintenance thereof, as may be required of Borrower and all entities engaged in work on the
Development. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Agency has made no
representations to Borrower that the prevailing wage and other requirements of Labor Code
Sections 1720 et seq., are not applicable to the construction of the Development. The Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower and not the City or Agency shall be responsible for
determining whether or not the prevailing wage and other requirements of Labor Code Sections
1720 et seq., are applicable to the construction of the Project.
(c) The Borrower shall defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to the
Agency), indemnify and hold harmless the Agency against any claim for damages,
compensation, fines, penalties or other amounts arising out of the failure or alleged failure of any
person or entity (including the Borrower, its contractor and subcontractors) to pay prevailing

regulations of the Department of Industrial Relations or comply with the other applicable
provisions of Labor Code Sections 1720 et seq., and implementing regulations of the Department
of Industrial Relations in connection with the construction, pursuant to this Agreement, of the
Development or any other work undertaken or in connection with the Property and shall
indemnify and hold the Agency harmless against any damages, compensation, fines, penalties or

and the Agreement Term.

AND ASSIGNS, WAIVES AND RELEASES THE AGENCY FROM ANY RIGHT OF
ACTION THAT MAY BE AVAILABLE TO ANY OF THEM PURSUANT TO LABOR
CODE SECTION 1781. THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THE PROTECTIONS OF
CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542 RELATIVE TO THE WAIVER AND RELEASE CONTAINED
IN THIS SECTION, WHICH READS AS FOLLOWS:
A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS
WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT
TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF
EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM
OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR
HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.
(e) BY INITIALING BELOW, THE BORROWER KNOWINGLY AND
VOLUNTARILY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 1542 SOLELY IN
CONNECTION WITH THE WAIVERS AND RELEASES OF THIS SECTION:
Initials of Authorized
Borrower Representative
(f) ADDITIONALLY, THE BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND
AND HOLD HARMLESS THE AGENCY, PURSUANT TO SECTION 3.7, AGAINST ANY
CLAIMS PURSUANT TO LABOR CODE SECTION 1781 ARISING FROM THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE CONSTRUCTION OR INSTALLATION OF ALL OR ANY
PORTION OF THE PROJECT.
Section 3.8 Certificate of Completion.
a. Issuance. Following the completion of the Project, excluding any normal
and minor building "punch- list" items to be completed by the Borrower, the Borrower may
request that the Agency inspect the completed Project and issue a Certificate of Completion for
the Project. Following the Agency's receipt of such a written request from the Borrower, the
Agency shall promptly inspect the Project to determine whether or not the Project has been
completed in compliance with this Agreement. If the Agency determines that the Project is
complete (excluding any such outstanding "punch- list" items) and in compliance with this
Agreement, the Agency shall issue a Certificate of Completion for the Project to the Borrower.
If the Agency determines that the Project is not complete or not in compliance with this
Arcadia Commons
ORANGE \SKLEIN B ERG \68259.5
22
Agreement, the Agency shall send written notice of each non - conformity to the Borrower, within
fifteen (15) calendar days following the Agency's receipt of the Borrower's written request for a
Certificate of Completion or within three (3) calendar days after the next regular meeting of the
Agency governing body, whichever date occurs later, provide the Borrower with a written
statement setting forth the reasons for the Agency's failure or refusal to issue a Certificate of
Completion. The statement shall also contain the Agency's opinion of the action(s) the
Borrower must take to obtain a Certificate of Completion from the Agency. If the reason for the
Borrower's failure to complete the Project is confined to the immediate unavailability of specific
items or materials for construction or landscaping at a price reasonably acceptable to the
Borrower or other minor building "punch- list" items, the Agency may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, issue a Certificate of Completion upon the posting of a bond or irrevocable standby
letter of credit by the Borrower, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Agency, in
an amount representing the fair value of the work on the Project remaining to be completed, as
reasonably determined by the Agency. If the Agency fails to provide such written statement,
within the specified time period, the Borrower shall be deemed, conclusively and without further
action of the Agency, to have satisfied the requirements of this Agreement with respect to the
construction and installation of the Project, as if a Certificate of Completion had been issued by
the Agency pursuant to this Agreement, and the same shall irrevocably be deemed to have been
issued as of such date for all purposes of this Agreement.
b. Effect. A Certificate of Completion shall only be evidence of the
Agency's conclusive determination of satisfactory completion of the construction and installation
of the Project in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. A Certificate of Completion shall
not constitute a Notice of Completion under Section 3093 of the California Civil Code, nor shall
it act to terminate the continuing reservations, covenants, restrictions or conditions contained in
the Regulatory Agreement or any other instruments recorded against the Property or set forth in
this Agreement or otherwise. A Certificate of Completion is not evidence of the compliance of
the Project with any Laws or Approvals. A Certificate of Completion shall not evidence the
satisfaction of any obligation of the Borrower to the Agency under this Agreement or otherwise,
other than the Borrower's obligation to construct and install the Project. After the recordation of
a Certificate of Completion for the Project, any Person then owning or thereafter purchasing,
leasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in the Property or the Project shall not (because of
such ownership, purchase, lease or acquisition) incur any obligation or liability under this
Agreement regarding construction or installation of the Project, but such Person shall be bound
by any reservations, covenants, conditions, restrictions and other interests affecting the Property
pursuant to this Agreement.
Section 3.9 Income Certifications and Marketing Plan.
(a) Borrower must determine the income eligibility of each tenant household
pursuant to County's approved tenant certification procedures within sixty (60) days before the
household's expected occupancy of one of the Development's units. Borrower shall certify each
tenant household's income on an annual basis.
(b) The maximum household income of a household occupying the
Development, and the total charges for rent, utilities, and related services to each household
occupying the Development, shall be maintained as provided in the Regulatory Agreement.
Arcadia Commons
ORANGE \S KLEINBERG \68259.5
23
(c) No later than sixty (60) days following Borrower's commencement of
construction of the Development, Borrower shall submit to the Agency for approval its plan for
marketing the Development to income - eligible households as required pursuant to the
Regulatory Agreement, including information on affirmative marketing efforts and compliance
with fair housing laws.
(d) Upon receipt of the Marketing Plan, the Agency shall promptly review the
Marketing Plan and shall approve or disapprove it within thirty (30) days after submission. If the
Marketing Plan is not approved, Borrower shall submit a revised Marketing Plan within thirty
(30) days. If the Agency does not approve the revised Marketing Plan because Borrower fails to
make specific revisions requested by the Agency, Borrower shall be in default hereunder.
Section 3.10 Relocation. If and to the extent that acquisition and construction of the
Development results in the permanent or temporary displacement of residential tenants,
homeowners, or businesses, then Borrower shall comply with all applicable local, state, and
federal statutes and regulations, (including without limitation California Government Code
Section 7260 et seq., and accompanying regulations) with respect to relocation planning,
advisory assistance, and payment of monetary benefits. Borrower shall be solely responsible for
payment of any relocation benefits to any displaced persons and any other obligations associated
with complying with such relocation laws. The Borrower shall defend, indemnify and hold
harmless (with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Agency and City), the Agency and City
against any claim for damages, compensation, fines, penalties, relocation payments or other
amounts arising out of the failure or alleged failure of any person or entity (including the
Borrower, City or Agency) to satisfy relocation obligations related to the acquisition and
construction of the Development.
Section 3.11 Equal Opportunity. During the construction of the Development there
shall be no discrimination on the basis of race, color, creed, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation,
marital status, national origin, ancestry, or disability in the hiring, firing, promoting, or demoting
of any person engaged in the construction work.
Section 3.12 Progress Reports. Until such time as Borrower has received a certificate
of occupancy from the City, Borrower shall provide the Agency with quarterly progress reports
regarding the status of the construction of the Development, including a certification that the
actual construction costs to date conform to the Approved Development Budget, as it may be
amended from time to time pursuant to Section 3.14 below.
Section 3.13 Construction Responsibilities.
(a) It shall be the responsibility of Borrower to coordinate and schedule the
work to be performed so that commencement and completion of construction will take place in
accordance with this Agreement.
(b) Borrower shall be solely responsible for all aspects of Borrower's conduct
in connection with the Development, including (but not limited to) the quality and suitability of
the plans and specifications, the supervision of construction work, and the qualifications,
financial condition, and performance of all architects, engineers, contractors, subcontractors,
suppliers, consultants, and property managers. Any review or inspection undertaken by the
Arcadia Commons
ORANGE \SKLEINBERG \68259.5
24
Agency with reference to the Development is solely for the purpose of determining whether
Borrower is properly discharging its obligations to the Agency, and should not be relied upon by
Borrower or by any third parties as a warranty or representation by the Agency as to the quality
of the design or construction of the Development.
Section 3.14 Mechanics Liens, Stop Notices, and Notices of Completion.
(a) If any claim of lien is filed against the Property or a stop notice affecting
the Loan is served on the Agency or any other lender or other third party in connection with the
Development, then Borrower shall, within twenty (20) days after such filing or service, either
pay and fully discharge the lien or stop notice, effect the release of such lien or stop notice by
delivering to the Agency a surety bond in sufficient form and amount, or provide the Agency
with other assurance satisfactory to the Agency that the claim of lien or stop notice will be paid
or discharged.
(b) If Borrower fails to discharge any lien, encumbrance, charge, or claim in
the manner required in this Section, then in addition to any other right or remedy, the Agency
may (but shall be under no obligation to) discharge such lien, encumbrance, charge, or claim at
Borrower's expense. Alternately, the Agency may require Borrower to immediately deposit with
the Agency the amount necessary to satisfy such lien or claim and any costs, pending resolution
thereof. The Agency may use such deposit to satisfy any claim or lien that is adversely
determined against Borrower.
(c) Borrower shall file a valid notice of cessation or notice of completion
upon cessation of construction on the Development for a continuous period of thirty (30) days or
more, and take all other reasonable steps to forestall the assertion of claims of lien against the
Property. Borrower authorizes the Agency, but without any obligation, to record any notices of
completion or cessation of labor, or any other notice that the Agency deems necessary or
desirable to protect its interest in the Development and Property.
Section 3.15 No Unpermitted Encumbrances. The Borrower shall not record and shall
not allow to be recorded against all or any portion of the Property or the Project any mortgage,
trust deed, deed of trust, encumbrance or lien that is not a Permitted Encumbrance. The
Borrower shall remove or shall have removed any Unpermitted Encumbrance made or recorded
against all or any portion of the Property or the Project or shall assure the satisfaction of any such
Unpermitted Encumbrance to the satisfaction of the Agency. The covenants of the Borrower set
forth in this Section regarding the placement of encumbrances on the Property shall run with the
land of the Property and bind successive owners of the Property, until recordation of the release
of operating covenants.
a. Agency Right to Discharge Unpermitted Encumbrances. After
sixty (60) calendar days prior written notice to the Borrower, the Agency shall have the right, but
not the obligation, to satisfy or remove any Unpermitted Encumbrance against the Property or
the Project and receive reimbursement from the Borrower for any amounts paid or incurred in
satisfying or removing any such Unpermitted Encumbrance, upon demand. Nothing in this
Section though, shall require the Borrower to pay or make provisions for the payment of any tax,
assessment, lien or charge that the Borrower is in the process of contesting the validity or amount
thereof, in good faith, and so long as such contest shall not subject all or any portion of the
Arcadia Commons
ORANGE \S KLEINBERG \68259.5
25
Property to forfeiture or sale. Agency's rights under this Section shall terminate upon the
repayment of the Loan.
Section 3.17 Approved Development Budget; Revisions to Budget. As of the Effective
Date of this Agreement, the Agency has approved the Approved Development Budget set forth
in Exhibit B. Borrower shall submit any required amendments to the Approved Development
Budget to the Agency for approval within fifteen (15) days of the date Borrower receives
information indicating that actual costs of the Development vary or will vary from the costs
shown on the Approved Development Budget. Written consent of the Agency shall be required
to amend the Approved Development Budget. The Executive Director is hereby authorized to
act on behalf of Agency to approve any revisions to the financing and /or Improvement plans for
the Project which do not materially increase the Agency's financial obligations hereunder.
Agency shall utilize best efforts to approve or disapprove requested amendments to the
Development Budget within five (5) working days of receipt of a request for approval.

Section 4.6 Hazardous Materials.
(a) Borrower shall keep and maintain the Property in compliance with, and

Borrower shall not use, generate, manufacture, store or dispose of on, under, or about the
Property or transport to or from the Property any flammable explosives, radioactive materials,
hazardous wastes, toxic substances or related materials, including without limitation, any
substances defined as or included in the definition of "hazardous substances," hazardous wastes,"
"hazardous materials," or "toxic substances" under any applicable federal or state laws or
regulations (collectively referred to hereinafter as "Hazardous Materials ") except such of the
foregoing as may be customarily used in construction of projects like the Development or kept
and used in and about residential property of this type.
(b) Borrower shall immediately advise the Agency in writing if at any time it
receives written notice of (i) any and all enforcement, cleanup, removal or other governmental or
regulatory actions instituted, completed or threatened against Borrower or the Property pursuant
to any applicable federal, state or local laws, ordinances, or regulations relating to any Hazardous
Materials, ( "Hazardous Materials Law "); (ii) all claims made or threatened by any third party
against Borrower or the Property relating to damage, contribution, cost recovery compensation,
loss or injury resulting from any Hazardous Materials (the matters set forth in clauses (i) and (ii)

discovery of any occurrence or condition on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of the
Property that could cause the Property or any part thereof to be classified as "border -zone
property" under the provision of California Health and Safety Code, Sections 25220 et seq., or
any regulation adopted in accordance therewith, or to be otherwise subject to any restrictions on
the ownership, occupancy, transferability or use of the Property under any Hazardous Materials
Law.

(d) Without the Agency's prior written consent, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld, Borrower shall not take any remedial action in response to the presence
of any Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Property, nor enter into any settlement
agreement, consent decree, or other compromise in respect to any Hazardous Material Claims,
which remedial action, settlement, consent decree or compromise might, in the Agency's
reasonable judgment, impair the value of the Agency's security hereunder; provided, however,
that the Agency's prior consent shall not be necessary in the event that the presence of
Hazardous Materials on, under, or about the Property either poses an immediate threat to the
health, safety or welfare of any individual or is of such a nature that an immediate remedial
response is necessary and it is not reasonably possible to obtain the Agency's consent before
taking such action, provided that in such event Borrower shall notify the Agency as soon as

(e) Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Section is intended
as the Agency's written request for information (and Borrower's response) concerning the
environmental condition of the Property as required by California Code of Civil Procedure
Section 726.5, and (ii) each representation and warranty in this Agreement (together with any
indemnity obligation applicable to a breach of any such representation and warranty) with
respect to the environmental condition of the Property is intended by the Parties to be an
"environmental provision" for purposes of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 736.
(f) In the event that any portion of the Property is determined to be
"environmentally impaired" (as that term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure
Section 726.5(e)(3)) or to be an "affected parcel" (as that term is defined in California Code of
Civil Procedure Section 726.5(e)(1), then, without otherwise limiting or in any way affecting the
Agency's or the trustee's rights and remedies under the Deed of Trust, the Agency may elect to
exercise its rights under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(a) to (1) waive its lien
on such environmentally impaired or affected portion of the Property and (2) exercise (a) the
rights and remedies of an unsecured creditor, including reduction of its claim against the
borrower to judgment, and (b) judgment, and (c) any other rights and remedies permitted by law.
For purposes of determining the Agency's right to proceed as an unsecured creditor under
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(a), the Borrower shall be deemed to have
willfully permitted or acquiesced in a release or threatened release of hazardous materials, within
the meaning of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(d)(1), if the release or
threatened release of hazardous materials was knowingly or negligently caused or contributed to
by any lessee, occupant, or user of any portion of the Property and the Borrower knew or should
have known of the activity by such lessee, occupant, or user which caused or contributed to the
release or threatened release. All costs and expenses, including (but not limited to) attorneys'

fees, incurred by the Agency in connection with any action commenced under this paragraph,
including any action required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(b) to
determine the degree to which the Property is environmentally impaired, plus interest thereon at
the lesser of ten percent (10 %) or the maximum rate permitted by law, until paid, shall be added
to the indebtedness secured by the Deed of Trust and shall be due and payable to the Agency
upon its demand made at any time following the conclusion of such action.
Section 4.7 Maintenance and Damage.
(a) During the course of both construction and operation of the Development,
Borrower shall maintain the Development and the Property in good repair and in a neat, clean
and orderly condition, including, without limitation, maintenance, repair, rehabilitation and
replacement of any and all asphalt, concrete, landscaping, utility systems, irrigation systems,
drainage facilities or systems, grading, subsidence, retaining walls or similar support structures,
foundations, signage, ornamentation and all other improvements on or to the Property, now
existing or made in the future by or with the consent of the Borrower as necessary to maintain
the appearance and character of the Property. Graffiti, as defined in Government Code Section
38772, that has been applied to any exterior surface of a structure or improvement on the
Property that is visible from any public right -of -way adjacent or contiguous to the Property, shall
be removed by Borrower by either painting over the evidence of such vandalism with a paint that
has been color- matched to the surface on which the paint is applied, or graffiti may be removed
with solvents, detergents or water, as appropriate. If there arises a condition in contravention of
this requirement, and if Borrower has not cured such condition within thirty (30) days after
receiving a Agency notice of such a condition, then in addition to any other rights available to
the Agency, the Agency shall have the right to perform all acts necessary to cure such condition,
and to establish or enforce a lien or other encumbrance against the Property. Any sum expended
by the Agency pursuant to this Section that is not paid within thirty (30) calendar days after
written demand for payment from the Agency, shall accrue interest at the rate of ten percent
(10 %) per annum, until paid.
(b) Subject to the requirements of senior lenders, and if economically feasible
in the Agency's reasonable judgment, if any improvement now or in the future on the Property is
damaged or destroyed, then Borrower shall, at its cost and expense, diligently undertake to repair
or restore such improvement consistent with the plans and specifications approved by the
Agency with such changes as have been approved by the Agency. Such work or repair shall be
commenced no later than the later of one hundred twenty (120) days after the damage or loss
occurs or thirty (30) days following receipt of the insurance proceeds, and shall be complete
within one (1) year thereafter (or such longer period for the commencement and completion as
may be extended by the Agency in its reasonable discretion). Any insurance proceeds collected
for such damage or destruction shall be applied to the cost of such repairs or restoration and, if
such insurance proceeds shall be insufficient for such purpose, then Borrower shall make up the
deficiency.
(c) Borrower hereby grants to the Agency a security interest in the Property
with the power to establish and enforce a lien or other encumbrance against the Property, in the
manner provided under Civil Code Sections 2924, 2924b and 2924c, to secure the obligations of
Borrower and it successors under Section 3.4(c) Section 3.4(b) or Section 3.4(c), including the
reasonable attorneys' fees and costs of the Agency associated with the abatement of a

maintenance default, including the removal of graffiti. The Notice of Agreement shall provide
record notice of such security interest in favor of the Agency.
(d) The provisions of this Section shall be a covenant running with the land of
the Property and binding successive owners of the Property until the expiration of the
effectiveness of the Redevelopment Plan and shall be enforceable by the Agency unless earlier

Section 5.2 Purpose of Restrictions on Transfer. This Agreement is entered into solely
for the purpose of the Borrower's construction and operation of the Development in accordance

Property, or of a substantial part thereof, or any other act or transaction involving or resulting in

obligations of the Owner and Borrower as set forth in the Loan Agreement at the time and in the
manner respectively provided herein. The Trustor agrees that at all times prior to full payment of
the sum owed under the Note, the Trustor will, at the Trustor "s own expense, maintain, preserve
and keep the Security or cause the Security to be maintained and preserved in good condition.
The Trustor will from time to time make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements and
renewals deemed proper and necessary by it. The Trustor shall not permit or suffer the use of
any of the Property for any purpose other than the use for which the same was intended at the
time this Deed of Trust was executed. The Beneficiary shall have no responsibility in any of
these matters or for the making of improvements or additions to the Security.
Trustor agrees to pay fully and discharge (or cause to be paid fully and discharged) all
claims for labor done and for material and services furnished in connection with the Security,
diligently to file or procure the filing of a valid notice of cessation upon the event of a cessation
of labor on the work or construction on the Security for a continuous period of thirty (30) days or
more, and to take all other reasonable steps to forestall the assertion of claims of lien against the
Security of any part thereof. Trustor irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Beneficiary
as its agent (said agency being coupled with an interest) with the authority, but without any
obligation, to file for record any notices of completion or cessation of labor or any other notice
that Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable to protect its interest in and to the Security or the
Loan Documents; provided, however, that Beneficiary shall exercise its rights as agent of Trustor
only in the event that Trustor shall fail to take, or shall fail to diligently continue to take, those
actions as hereinbefore provided.

claims as Beneficiary shall specify upon laborers, materialmen, subcontractors or other persons
who have furnished or claim to have furnished labor, services or materials in connection with the

claim item to protect against a claim of lien.

other rights or privileges in the nature of easements with respect to any property or rights
included in the Security except those required or desirable for installation and maintenance of
public utilities including, without limitation, water, gas, electricity, sewer, telephone and
telegraph, or those required by law, and as approved, in writing, by Beneficiary.
Assignment of Rents As part of the consideration for the indebtedness evidenced by the
Note, Trustor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Beneficiary all the
rents and revenues of the Property including those now due, past due, or to become due by virtue
of any lease or other agreement for the occupancy or use of all or any part of the Property,
Arcadia Commons 4
ORANGE \S KLEINB ERG \68259.5
regardless of to whom the rents and revenues of the Property are payable. Trustor hereby
authorizes Beneficiary or Beneficiary "s agents to collect the aforesaid rents and revenues and
hereby directs each tenant of the Property to pay such rents to Beneficiary or Beneficiary "s
agents; provided, however, that. prior to written notice given by Beneficiary to Trustor of the
breach by Trustor of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents, Trustor shall
collect and receive all rents and revenues of the Property as trustee for the benefit of Beneficiary
and Trustor to apply the rents and revenues so collected to the sums secured by this Deed of
Trust with the balance, so long as no such breach has occurred, to the account of Trustor, it being
intended by Trustor and Beneficiary that this assignment of rents constitutes an absolute
assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Upon delivery of written notice
by Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the
Loan Documents, and without the necessity of Beneficiary entering upon and taking and
maintaining full control of the Property in person, by agent or by a court- appointed receiver,
Beneficiary shall immediately be entitled to possession of all rents and revenues of the Property
as specified in this Section 2.3 4 as the same becomes due and payable, including but not limited
to rents then due and unpaid, and all such rents shall immediately upon delivery of such notice be
held by Trustor as trustee for the benefit of Beneficiary only; provided, however, that the written
notice by Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor shall contain a statement that
Beneficiary exercises its rights to such rents. Trustor agrees that commencing upon delivery of
such written notice of Trustor "s breach by Beneficiary to Trustor, each tenant of the Property
shall make such rents payable to and pay such rents to Beneficiary or Beneficiary "s agents on
Beneficiary" s written demand to each tenant therefor, delivered to each tenant personally, by
mail or by delivering such demand to each rental unit, without any liability on the part of said
tenant to inquire further as to the existence of a default by Trustor.
Trustor hereby covenants that Trustor has not executed any prior assignment of said rents, that
Trustor has not performed, and will not perform, any acts or has not executed and will not
execute, any instrument which would prevent Beneficiary from exercising its rights under this
Section 2.34, and that at the time of execution of this Deed of Trust, there has been no
anticipation or prepayment of any of the rents of the Property for more than two (2) months prior
to the due dates of such rents. Trustor covenants that Trustor will not hereafter collect or accept
payment of any rents of the Property more than two (2) months prior to the due dates of such
rents. Trustor further covenant that Trustor will execute and deliver to Beneficiary such further
assignments of rents and revenues of the Property as Beneficiary may from time to time request.
Upon Trustor "s breach of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents,
Beneficiary may in person, by agent or by a court- appointed receiver, regardless of the adequacy
of Beneficiary "s security, enter upon and take and maintain full control of the Property in order
to perform all acts necessary and appropriate for the operation and maintenance thereof
including, but not limited to, the execution, cancellation or modification of leases, the collection
of all rents and revenues of the Property, the making of repairs to the Property and the execution
or termination of contracts providing for the management or maintenance of the Property, all on
such terms as are deemed best to protect, the security of this Deed of Trust. In the event
Beneficiary elects to seek the appointment of a receiver for the Property upon Trustor "s breach
of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in this Deed of Trust, Trustor hereby expressly consents
to the appointment of such receiver. Beneficiary or the receiver shall be entitled to receive a
reasonable fee for so managing the Property.

ORANGE \SKLEINBERG \68259.5
All rents and revenues collected subsequent to delivery of written notice by Beneficiary to
Trustor of the breach by Trustor of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents
shall be applied first to the costs, if any, of taking control of and managing the Property and
collecting the rents, including, but not limited to, attorney "s fees, receiver "s fees, premiums on
receiver "s bonds, costs of repairs to the Property, premiums on insurance policies, taxes,
assessments and other charges on the Property, and the costs of discharging any obligation or
liability of Trustor as lessor or landlord of the Property and then to the sums secured by this deed
of Trust. Beneficiary or the receiver shall have access to the books and records used in the
operation and maintenance of the Property and shall be liable to account only for those rents
actually received. Beneficiary shall not be liable to Trustor, anyone claiming under or through
Trustor or anyone having an interest in the Property by reason of anything done or left undone by
Beneficiary under this Section 2.34.
If the rents of the Property are not sufficient to meet the costs, if any, of taking control of and
managing the Property and collecting the rents, any funds expended by Beneficiary for such
purposes shall become indebtedness of Trustor to Beneficiary secured by this Deed of Trust
pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof. Unless Beneficiary and Trustor agree in writing to other terms of
payment, such amounts shall be payable upon notice from Beneficiary to Trustor requesting
payment thereof and shall bear interest from the date of disbursement at the rate stated in
Section 3.3.
Any entering upon and taking and maintaining of control of the Property by Beneficiary or the
receiver and any application of rents as provided herein shall not cure or waive any default
hereunder or invalidate any other right or remedy of Beneficiary under applicable law or
provided herein. This assignment of rents of the Property shall terminate at such time as this
Deed of Trust ceases to secure indebtedness held by Beneficiary.

be paid, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date of delinquency, all taxes, assessments, charges
and levies imposed by any public authority or utility company which are or may become a lien
affecting the Security or any part thereof; provided, however, that Trustor shall not be required to
pay and discharge any such tax, assessment, charge or levy so long as (a) the legality thereof
shall be promptly and actively contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings, and (b)
Trustor maintains reserves adequate to pay any liabilities contested pursuant to this Section 3.1.
With respect to taxes, special assessments or other similar governmental charges, Trustor shall
pay such amount in full prior to the attachment of any lien therefor on any part of the Security;
provided, however, if such taxes, assessments or charges may be paid in installments, Trustor
may pay in such installments. Except as provided in clause (b) of the first sentence of this
paragraph, the provisions of this Section 3.1 shall not be construed to require that Trustor
maintain a reserve account, escrow account, impound account or other similar account for the
payment of future taxes, assessments, charges and levies.
In the event that Trustor shall fail to pay any of the foregoing items required by this
Section to be paid by Trustor, Beneficiary may (but shall be under no obligation to) pay the

ORANGE \S KLEINB ERG \68259.5
same, after the Beneficiary has notified the Trustor of such failure to pay and the Trustor fails to
fully pay such items within seven (7) business days after receipt of such notice. Any amount so
advanced therefor by Beneficiary, together with interest thereon from the date of such advance at
the maximum rate permitted by law, shall become an additional obligation of Trustor to the
Beneficiary and shall be secured hereby, and Trustor agrees to pay all such amounts.
Provisions Respecting Insurance Trustor agrees to provide insurance conforming in all
respects to that required under the Loan Documents during the course of construction and
following completion, and at all times until all amounts secured by this Deed of Trust have been

prior to the Beneficiary "s receipt of the entire Principal and all amounts secured by this Deed of
Trust.

required by this Deed of Trust or shall fail to keep the Security in accordance with the Loan
Documents, the Beneficiary, after at least seven (7) days prior notice to Beneficiary, may (but
shall be under no obligation to) take out the required policies of insurance and pay the premiums
on the same or may make such repairs or replacements as are necessary and provide for payment
thereof, and all amounts so advanced therefor by the Beneficiary shall become an additional
obligation of the Trustor to the Beneficiary (together with interest as set forth below) and shall he
secured hereby, which amounts the Trustor agrees to pay on the demand of the Beneficiary, and
if not so paid, shall bear interest from the date of the advance at the lesser of ten percent (10 %)
per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law.

threatened release. All costs and expenses, including (but not limited to) attorneys" fees,
incurred by the Beneficiary in connection with any action commenced under this paragraph,

ORANGE \S KLEINBERG \68259.5
notice by the Beneficiary to the Trustor (or automatically where so specified in the Loan
Documents), and no omission on the part of the Beneficiary to exercise such option when
entitled to do so shall be construed as a waiver of such right.
Trustor agrees to appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the
security hereof or the rights or powers of Beneficiary or Trustee, and to pay all costs and
expenses, including cost of evidence of title and reasonable attorney's fees in any such action or
proceeding in which Beneficiary or Trustee may appear.
The Beneficiar s Right to Enter and Take Possession If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Beneficiary may:
Either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or
by a receiver appointed by a court, and without regard to the adequacy of its security, enter upon
the Security and take possession thereof (or any part thereof) and of any of the Security, in its
own name or in the name of Trustee, and do any acts which it deems necessary or desirable to
preserve the value or marketability of the Property, or part thereof or interest therein, increase the
income therefrom or protect the security thereof. The entering upon and taking possession of the
Security shall not cure or waive any Event of Default or Notice of Default (as defined below)
hereunder or invalidate any act done in response to such Default or pursuant to such Notice of
Default and, notwithstanding the continuance in possession of the Security, Beneficiary shall be
entitled to exercise every right provided for in this Deed of Trust, or by law upon occurrence of
any Event of Default, including the right to exercise the power of sale;
Commence an action to foreclose this Deed of Trust as a mortgage, appoint a
receiver, or specifically enforce any of the covenants hereof;
Deliver to Trustee a written declaration of default and demand for sale, and a

which the Trustor acquires title to any Security, or in any other document or agreement now or
hereafter evidencing, creating or securing all or any portion of the obligations secured hereby, or
provided by law.
Foreclosure By Power of Sale Should the Beneficiary elect to foreclose by exercise of
the power of sale herein contained, the Beneficiary shall give notice to the Trustee (the " "Notice
of Sale " ") and shall deposit with Trustee this Deed of Trust which is secured hereby (and the
deposit of which shall be deemed to constitute evidence that the unpaid principal amount of the
Note is immediately due and payable), and such receipts and evidence of any expenditures made
that are additionally secured hereby as Trustee may require.
Upon receipt of such notice from the Beneficiary, Trustee shall cause to be
recorded, published and delivered to Trustor such Notice of Default and Election to Sell as then
required by law and by this Deed of Trust. Trustee shall, without demand on Trustor, after lapse
of such time as may then be required by law and after recordation of such Notice of Default and
Arcadia Commons 13
ORANGE \S KLEINB ERG \68259.5
Election to Sell and after Notice of Sale having been given as required by law, sell the Security,
at the time and place of sale fixed by it in said Notice of Sale, whether as a whole or in separate
lots or parcels or items as Trustee shall deem expedient and in such order as it may determine
unless specified otherwise by the Trustor according to California Civil Code Section 2924g(b), at
public auction to the highest bidder, for cash in lawful money of the United States payable at the
time of sale. Trustee shall deliver to such purchaser or purchasers thereof its good and sufficient
deed or deeds conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or
implied. The recitals in such deed or any matters of facts shall be conclusive proof of the
truthfulness thereof. Any person, including, without limitation, Trustor, Trustee or Beneficiary,
may purchase at such sale, and Trustor hereby covenants to warrant and defend the title of such
purchaser or purchasers.
After deducting all reasonable costs, fees and expenses of Trustee, including costs
of evidence of title in connection with such sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to
payment of. (i) the unpaid Principal amount of the Note; (ii) all other amounts owed to
Beneficiary under the Loan Documents; (iii) all other sums then secured hereby; and (iv) the
remainder, if any, to Trustor.
Trustee may postpone sale of all or any portion of the Property by public
announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter, and without
further notice make such sale at the time fixed by the last postponement, or may, in its discretion,
give a new Notice of Sale.
Receiver If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Beneficiary, as a
matter of right and without further notice to Trustor or anyone claiming under the Security, and
without regard to the then value of the Security or the interest of Trustor therein, shall have the
right to apply to any court having jurisdiction to appoint a receiver or receivers of the Security
(or a part thereof), and Trustor hereby irrevocably consents to such appointment and waives
further notice of any application therefor. Any such receiver or receivers shall have all the usual
powers and duties of receivers in like or similar cases, and all the powers and duties of
Beneficiary in case of entry as provided herein, and shall continue as such and exercise all such
powers until the date of confirmation of sale of the Security, unless such receivership is sooner
terminated.
Remedies Cumulative No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to the
Beneficiary by this Deed of Trust is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power or
remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent
and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity.
No Waiver
No delay or omission of the Beneficiary to exercise any right, power or remedy
accruing upon any Event of Default shall exhaust or impair any such right, power or remedy, or
shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or acquiescence therein; and every
right, power and remedy given by this Deed of Trust to the Beneficiary may be exercised from
time to time and as often as may be deemed expeditious by the Beneficiary. Beneficiary "s
express or implied consent to a breach by Trustor, or a waiver of any obligation of the Trustor
14
Arcadia Commons

hereunder shall not be deemed or construed to be a consent to any subsequent breach, or further
waiver, of such obligation or of any other obligations of the Trustor hereunder. Failure on the
part of the Beneficiary to complain of any act or failure to act or to declare an Event of Default,
irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by the Beneficiary
of its right hereunder or impair any rights, power or remedies consequent on any Event of
Default by the Trustor.
If the Beneficiary (i) grants forbearance or an extension of time for the payment
of any sums secured hereby, (ii) takes other or additional security or the payment of any sums
secured hereby, (iii) waives or does not exercise any right granted in the Loan Documents, (iv)
releases any part of the Security from the lien of this Deed of Trust, or otherwise changes any of
the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements in the Loan Documents, (v) consents to the
granting of any easement or other right affecting the Security, or (iv) makes or consents to any
agreement subordinating the lien hereof, any such act or omission shall not release, discharge,
modify, change or affect the original liability under this Deed of Trust, or any other obligation of
the Trustor or any subsequent purchaser of the Security or any part thereof, or any maker, co-
signer, endorser, surety or guarantor (unless expressly released) such action shall not constitute a
waiver or acquiescence therein; nor shall any such act or omission preclude the Beneficiary from
exercising any right, power or privilege herein granted or intended to be granted in any Event of
Default then made or of any subsequent Event of Default, nor, except as otherwise expressly
provided in an instrument or instruments executed by the Beneficiary shall the lien of this Deed
of Trust be altered thereby.
Suits to Protect the Security The Beneficiary shall have power to (a) institute and
maintain such suits and.proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the
Security and the rights of the Beneficiary as may be unlawful or any violation of this Deed of
Trust, (b) preserve or protect its interest (as described in this Deed of Trust) in the Security, and
(c) restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other governmental
enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the enforcement for
compliance with such enactment, rule or order would impair the Security thereunder or be
prejudicial to the interest of the Beneficiary.
Trustee May File Proofs of Claim In the case of any receivership, insolvency,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other proceedings affecting
the Trustor, its creditors or its property, the Beneficiary, to the extent permitted by law, shall be
entitled to file such proofs of claim and other documents as may be necessary or advisable in
order to have the claims of the Beneficiary allowed in such proceedings and for any additional
amount which may become due and payable by the Trustor hereunder after such date.
Waiver The Trustor waives presentment, demand for payment, notice of dishonor,
notice of protest and nonpayment, protest, notice of interest on interest and late charges, and

Thousand Dollars ($6,900,000), or so much as is loaned to Borrower, plus interest thereon
pursuant to Section 2 below.
Borrower's Obligation. This promissory note (the "Note ") evidences the
Borrower's obligation to pay the Agency the principal amount of up to Six Million Nine Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($6,900,000) for the funds loaned to the Borrower by Agency to finance the
construction and permanent financing costs of the Property pursuant to the Owner Participation

set forth in the Loan Agreement.
Interest. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at the
annual rate of one percent (1 %), compounded annually, commencing on the date of the Note
until paid; provided, however, if a Default occurs, interest on the principal balance shall begin to
accrue, as of the date of Default (following expiration of applicable notice and cure periods), and
continuing until such time as the Loan funds are repaid in full or the Default is cured, at the
default rate of the lesser of ten percent (10 %), compounded annually, or the highest rate
permitted by law.
Term and Repayment Requirements. The term of the Loan shall commence with
the date of this Note and shall expire fifty -five (55) years after the date of the certificate of
occupancy for the Development. This Note shall be due and payable as set forth in Section 2.7

Terms of Payment.
All payments due under this Note shall be paid in currency of the United
States of America, which at the time of payment is lawful for the payment of public and private
debts.
All payments on this Note shall be paid to Arcadia Redevelopment

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, or any instrument

payment of any sums by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Note would result in the
payment of interest which would exceed the amount that the Agency may legally charge under
the laws of the State of California, then the amount by which payments exceeds the lawful
interest rate shall automatically be deducted from the principal balance owing on this Note, so
that in no event shall the Borrower be obligated under the terms of this Note to pay any interest
which would exceed the lawful rate
This note shall be non recourse to the Borrower, pursuant to, and except as
provided in, Section 2.9, of the Loan Agreement.

principal balance, together with all interest thereon, and together with all other sums then
payable under this Note and the Deed of Trust shall at the option of the Agency become
immediately due and payable upon written notice by the Agency to the Borrower without further
demand.
The failure to exercise the remedy set forth in Subsection 7(b) above or
any other remedy provided by law upon the occurrence of one or more of the foregoing events of
default shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any remedy at any subsequent time in
respect to the same or any other default. The acceptance by Agency hereof of any payment
which is less than the total of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment shall not
constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any of the foregoing remedies or options at that time
or at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such remedy or option, without the
express consent of the Agency, except as and to the extent otherwise provided by law.
Waivers.
The Borrower hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and demand,
and notice of protest, notice of demand, and notice of dishonor of this Note. The Borrower
expressly agrees that this Note or any payment hereunder may be extended from time to time,
and that the Agency may accept further security or release any security for this Note, all without
in any way affecting the liability of the Borrower.
No extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof
made by agreement by the Agency with any person now or hereafter liable for payment of this
Note shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of the
Borrower under this Note, either in whole or in part.
The obligations of the Borrower under this Note shall be absolute and the
Borrower waives any and all rights to offset, deduct or withhold any payments or charges due

signed by the party against whom enforcement of any waiver, change, modification or discharge
is sought.
