of financing the acquisition, construction, improvement, and equipping of the Legacy Square
affordable housing project located at 609 N. Spurgeon Street, Santa Ana, CA 92701.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Two years ago, City Council approved an award of $3.1 million in funding for the development of
the Legacy Square affordable housing project by National Community Renaissance of California
(National CORE). After two years of predevelopment in which National CORE worked with staff to
secure all of their remaining sources of financing in their capital stack as a condition of the City's
award of funds, staff are now returning to City Council with the City's financing documents required
for this project, which include the loan agreement, subordination agreements, and a new TEFRA
resolution. The terms of the loan agreement are provided for the City Council to consider approval
of the loan agreement. The subordination agreements are required for the senior lenders with
funds in the project. Finally, the City's previous TEFRA resolution expired after one year, so a new
TEFRA resolution is also included.
DISCUSSION
On January 15, 2019, the City Council approved a pre -loan commitment of $3,170,547 in
inclusionary housing funds for the development of the 93-unit Legacy Square affordable housing
project located at 609 N Spurgeon Street, Santa Ana, CA 92701 (Project) to be developed by
National Community Renaissance of California (Developer) by a unanimous vote. The $3,170,547
in funds from the City's Inclusionary Housing Funds are funds generated through the payment of
in -lieu fees when developers opt -out of developing affordable housing on -site and instead pay a
fee. The staff report from January 15, 2019 (Exhibit 1) and the pre -loan commitment (Exhibit 2),
both provide further information on the Project.
After the City Council approves a pre -loan commitment of funding for an affordable housing project,
it can often take a substantial amount of time for a developer to secure the remaining financing.
The majority of large multi -family affordable housing projects require low-income housing tax
credits, which are very competitive for the higher value 9% tax credits with only two application
deadlines a year, and more difficult to finance with the lower value 4% tax credits. After almost
two years since the Legacy Square Project received a commitment of funding from City Council,
the Developer has now secured the remaining financing and is prepared to close on financing prior
to the end of the year and begin building the Project.
Specifically, after receiving the pre -loan commitment letter from the City on January 15, 2019, the
Developer secured entitlements from City Council on February 5, 2019 and then worked to secure
all necessary financing for the construction and operation of the Project. The Developer worked
with City staff to submit two applications for Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities
(AHSC) funds available through the State of California Department of Housing and Community
Development. On both February 5, 2019, and one year later on February 4, 2020, City Council
adopted a resolution supporting the Developer's submittal of a funding application for the AHSC
Grant Program in an amount not to exceed $30 million (Exhibit 3 and 4).
55A-2
Loan Agreement with Legacy Square LP
December 15, 2020
Page 3
On June 25, 2020, the Strategic Growth Council awarded the Developer $25,431,865 in AHSC
funds. This was the third project in five rounds of funding for the State's AHSC program that has
received an award of funds; the Depot at Santiago and Santa Ana Arts Collective were two previous
projects that were awarded funds under this competitive funding source. The $25.4 million award
includes approximately $2,000,000 to develop the surrounding transportation -related
improvements around the Project by the City's Public Works Agency. Approximately $430,000 will
also be allocated to transit programs and transit -related amenities to build and operate a bicycle
kiosk, car share program, three years of transit passes for each household, and onsite urban
greening components. Following their award of AHSC program funds, the Developer applied for
4% tax credits. By September 2020, the Developer had secured all of their necessary financing to
develop the Project and must now close on their financing and pull their building permit before their
4% tax credits and AHSC program funds expire.
The inclusionary housing loan agreement is attached as Exhibit 5. The following loan terms are
incorporated into the loan agreement:
• Borrower: Legacy Square LP (c/o National Community Renaissance of California)
• Loan Amount: $3,170,547 principal amount from the inclusionary housing fund
• Interest Rate: 3% simple interest compounded annually
• Term: 55 years from the date of issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy for the Project
• Terms of Repayment: Repaid from 50% of residual receipts (pro-rata with payments due
in connection with other financing provided) calculated after payment of operating expenses
including debt service on the senior loan, property management fee, owner administration
fee, required reserves, and any deferred developer fee. The borrower shall retain the other
50% of the residual receipts.
• Disbursement Schedule: 90% of the funds will be disbursed upfront for the construction,
with a 10% contingency.
• Selection of Tenants: The Developer shall give preference in leasing units to households
that live and/or work in the City of Santa Ana. Implementation of the preference will be
monitored by staff in the Community Development Agency.
Regarding the subordination agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (Exhibit 6), the City's total loan
for this project is $3,170,547 compared to Bank of America's larger loan of $5,258,706. As a
subordinate loan for a large affordable housing project such as this, it is not uncommon for a senior
lender to request a subordination agreement for the City's smaller loan agreement in order to permit
the senior lender to complete their underwriting and commit their private market financing.
Regarding the Subordination Agreement with the State of California Department of Housing and
Community Development (HCD), the City's total loan for this project is $3,170,547 compared to
HCD's larger loan of $15,000,000. HCD requires the City to enter into a subordination agreement.
HCD's loan will be disbursed at the permanent loan conversion when the project is complete in
approximately a year and a half. Therefore, HCD has not prepared this subordination agreement
at this time and it will be provided after the project is complete.

If the loan agreement is not approved by City Council, the Developer will have to decline their
award of AHSC Program funds and the Project will not move forward.
Project Description
The Project will be 100% affordable to households earning less than 60% of the Area Median
Income (AMI). At least 44 of the units will be affordable to family households earning no more than
30% of the AMI and of those units 33 will be reserved as permanent supportive housing; 31 of the
units will be affordable to family households earning no more than 50% of the AMI; 17 of the units
will be affordable to family households earning no more than 60% of the AMI; and there will be one
manager's unit. There will be a local preference for residents of Santa Ana who live and/or work in
the City. The unit mix and rent restrictions are as follows:

TEFRA Resolution
On December 17, 2019, the City Council conducted a Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act
(TEFRA) Hearing in consideration of the issuance of tax exempt bond financing by the California
Statewide Communities Development Authority on behalf of Legacy Square, LP, for the benefit of
the Project to finance the acquisition, construction, and improvement of the Project (Exhibit 7).
Following the TEFRA hearing, City Council adopted a resolution approving the issuance of revenue
bonds by the California Statewide Communities Development Authority in an amount not to exceed
$40,000,000. However, the previous approval is set to expire after one year on December 16,
2020. On December4, 2020, staff held a public hearing, telephonically, as permitted by the Internal
Revenue Service to satisfy the public hearing requirement in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, at
which time an opportunity was provided to interested parties to present arguments both for and
against the issuance of the revenue bonds. The public hearing was held by staff because the
Internal Revenue Service requires the use of a toll -free number and it was an administrative burden
for the City to create a toll -free number specifically for this TEFRA resolution. Therefore, as an
alternative a staff -level public hearing was held. No public comments were received during the
staff -level public hearing and staff are recommending approval of a new resolution for the issuance
of the revenue bonds (Exhibit 8).
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds for the conditional grant agreement in the amount of $2,853,492.30 (90% of the total) are
available in the Inclusionary Housing Fund, Loans and Grants account (No. 41718820-69152) for
expenditure in the current fiscal year. The remaining $317,054.70 (10%) will be budgeted and
included in the FY 2021-22 annual budget.

The City received a payment of $896.78 to hold a TEFRA hearing for this project, which was
deposited into account No. 01102002-53902.
The bonds to be issued by the California Statewide Communities Development Authority are the
sole responsibility of Legacy Square, L.P. The City has no financial or legal liability for the project
or repayment of the bonds and does not constitute any type of indebtedness for the City.

Loan Documents, provided however, that Developer shall have such period as is provided
in the Senior Loan Documents during which to effectuate a cure.

Certificate of Completion for the construction from City, Developer shall not sell, lease
(other than to tenants meeting the requirements set forth in this Agreement), sublease or
otherwise transfer all or any part of the Property or any interest therein without the prior
written consent of the City Project Manager, which consent may be withheld in the City
Project Manager's reasonable discretion. In connection with the foregoing consent
requirements, Developer acknowledges that City relied upon Developer's particular
expertise in entering into this Agreement and continues to rely on such expertise to ensure
the satisfactory completion of the construction.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a "transfer" shall not
include: (i) atransfer of a General Partner's interest in Developer when made in connection
with the exercise by the Developer's limited partner (the "Limited Partner") of its rights
upon a default by a General Partner under the Developer's Partnership Agreement (the
"Partnership Agreement") or upon a General Partner's withdrawal in violation of the
Partnership Agreement, so long as the removal and substitution of the defaulting General
55A-44
Partner is made within thirty (30) days of such default or, if such removal and substitution
cannot reasonably be completed within thirty (30) days, so long as the Limited Partner
commences to take action to remove and substitute the General Partner within a reasonable
period and thereafter diligently proceeds to complete such substitution; (ii) any transfer of
the Property to one or more of the General Partners pursuant to the purchase option, as
provided for in the Partnership Agreement; (iii) any transfer of the Limited Partner's

16.3 Transfer of Developer Limited Partner's Interest. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Loan Documents, no consent shall be
required of the City (and it shall not be deemed a default or an Event of Default under any
of the Loan Documents), in connection with the transfer and/or the assignment by the
Developer's limited partner of its interest in the Developer to an entity controlled or
managed by an entity which is related to or under common control with the Developer's
limited partner.

the contrary in this Agreement or the Loan Documents, the removal and/or replacement of
a General Partner for cause in accordance with the Partnership Agreement shall not require
the consent of the City and shall not shall not constitute a default or an Event of Default
under this Agreement or the Loan Documents or accelerate the maturity of the Inclusionary
Loan. If the Developer's limited partner exercises its right to remove a General Partner,
City will not unreasonably withhold its consent to the substitute general partner; provided

Developer, the City Project Manager shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the
request, provide Developer with a written statement of the reasons therefore. The statement
shall contain a description of the action Developer must take to obtain a Certificate of
Completion. If the reason therefore is that the Developer has not completed a minor portion
of the construction, City may, in its sole and absolute discretion, issue the Certificate of
Completion upon the posting with City of a bond or other form of security acceptable to
the City Project Manager in the amount of the fair value of the uncompleted work.
A Certificate of Completion is not evidence of compliance with or satisfaction of
the Inclusionary Loan Documents or any obligation of Developer to any other party
whatsoever, including any holder of a mortgage or deed of trust. A Certificate of
55A-45
Completion is not "notice of completion" referred to in Section 3093 of the California Civil
Code.
18. INDEMNIEICATION
18.1 Nonliability of City. Developer acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) The relationship between Developer and the City is and shall

Developer of any matter in connection with the construction, including matters relating to:
(i) the performance of the construction work; (ii) architects, contractors, subcontractors and
materialmen, or the workmanship of or materials used by any of them; or, (iii) the progress
of the construction; and Developer shall rely entirely on its own judgment with respect to
such matters and acknowledges that any review, inspection, supervision, approval or
information supplied to Developer by City in connection with such matters is solely for the
protection of City, and that neither Developer nor any third party is entitled to rely on it;

business associate or participant of any kind of Developer, and City does not intend to ever
assume any such status; (ii) City's activities in connection with the Loan shall not be
"outside the scope of the activities of a lender of money" within the meaning of California
Civil Code Section 3434, as modified or recodified from time to time, and City does not
intend to ever assume any responsibility to any person for the quality or safety of the
Property; and, (iii) City shall not be deemed responsible for or a participant in any acts,
omissions or decisions of Developer;
(c) City shall not be directly or indirectly liable or responsible for any
loss or injury of any kind to any person or property resulting from any construction on, or
occupancy or use of, the Property, whether arising from: (i) any defect in any building,
grading, landscaping or other onsite or offsite improvement; (ii) any act or omission of
Developer or any of Developer's agents, employees, independent contractors, licensees or
invitees; or (iii) any accident on the Property or any fire or other casualty or hazard thereon;
and,

given to City under the Loan Documents, including any certificate, financial statement,
survey, appraisal or insurance policy, City 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 City to anyone.
18.2 Indemnity. Developer shall defend (by counsel reasonably satisfactory to
City), indemnify and save and hold harmless the Indemnitees from and against all claims,
damages, demands, actions, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) arising from or relating to: (i) this
Agreement; (ii) the making of the Loan(s); (iii) a claim, demand or cause of action that any
person has or asserts against Developer; (iv) any act or omission of Developer, any
55A-46

respect to the consequences of any act of gross negligence or willful misconduct of City.
Developer's obligations under this Section shall survive the cancellation of the Inclusionary
Promissory Note, release and reconveyance of the Inclusionary Deed of Trust, issuance of
the Certificate of Completion, and termination of this Agreement.
18.2.1 Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Developer, nor any of its
partners nor their respective directors, officers or employees, shall be personally liable for
any indemnification obligation hereunder that would result as the repayment of principal
and/or interest under the Loan.
18.3 Reimbursement of City. Developer shall reimburse City immediately
upon written demand for all costs reasonably incurred by City (including the reasonable
fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants, appraisers and other consultants, whether the
same are independent contractors or employees of City) in connection with the
enforcement of the Loan Documents and all related matters, including all claims, demands,
causes of action, liabilities, losses, commissions and other costs against which City is
indemnified under the Loan Documents. Such reimbursement obligations shall bear
interest from the date occurring sixty (60) days after City gives written demand to
Developer and shall be secured by the hiclusionary Deed of Trust. Such reimbursement
obligations shall survive the cancellation of the Loan Note, release and reconveyance of
the Inclusionary Deed of Trust, issuance of a Certificate of Completion, and termination of
this Agreement. Developer shall not be obligated to reimburse City for any expenses
related to the conduct of any periodic inspections carried out by the City, its personnel or
its agents.
19. INSURANCE, CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION
19.1 Policies Required. While any obligation of Developer under the Loan
Documents remains outstanding, Developer shall maintain at Developer's sole expense,
with insurers either: (i) admitted in California; or, (ii) are not admitted to California but
have an A.M. Best Rating of "A" or above and reasonably approved by the City, the
following policies of insurance in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the City
Attorney:
(a) worker's compensation insurance and any other insurance required
by law in connection with the construction;
(b) prior to commencement and following completion of the
construction, fire and hazard "all risk" insurance covering 100% of the replacement cost of
the Improvements in the event of fire, lightning, windstorm, vandalism, malicious mischief
and all other risks normally covered by "all risk" coverage policies in the area where the
Property is located (including loss by flood if the Property is in an area designated as
subject to the danger of flood);
55A-47
(c) upon commencement of the construction and at all times prior to
completion of the construction, builder's risk -all risk insurance covering 100% of the
replacement cost of all Improvements (including offsite materials) during the course of
construction in the event of fire, lightning, windstorm, vandalism, earthquake, malicious
mischief and all other risks normally covered by "all risk" coverage policies in the area
where the Property is located (including loss by flood if the Property is in an area
designated as subject to the danger of flood);
(d) public liability insurance in amounts reasonably required by City
from time to time, and in no event less than $1,000,000 for "single occurrence;"
(e) property damage insurance in amounts reasonably required by the
City from time to time, and in no event less than $1,000,000; and
(f) any other insurance reasonably required by City that is available at
commercially reasonable rates.
All such insurance shall provide that it may not be canceled or materially modified
without thirty (30) days prior written notice to City. The policies required under
subparagraphs (b) and (c) shall include a "lender's loss payable endorsement" in form and
substance satisfactory to City, showing the City as encumbrance. The City shall be named
as an additional insured in the policies required under subparagraphs (d) and (e).
Certificates of insurance for the above policies (and/or original policies, if required by City)
shall be primary and delivered within ten (10) days after demand therefore, and prior to
start of any construction work. All policies insuring against damage to the Improvements
shall contain an agreed value clause sufficient to eliminate any risk of co-insurance. No
less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of each policy, Developer shall deliver to
City evidence of renewal or replacement of such policy reasonably satisfactory to the City
Attorney.
19.2 City Attorney May Modify. The City Attorney may modify the type and
amounts of insurance required pursuant to this Section.
19.3 Claims and Proceedings. Developer shall give City immediate notice
of any material casualty to any portion of the Property, whether or not covered by
insurance, and of the initiation or threatened initiation of any proceeding for the
condemnation or other taking for public or quasi -public use of any portion of the Property
(collectively, "Condemnation"), and shall provide City with copies of all documents which
pertain to any such casualty or Condemnation. Developer shall take all action reasonably
required by City in connection therewith to protect the interests of Developer and/or City,
and City shall be entitled (without regard to the adequacy of its security) to participate in
any action, claim, adjustment or proceeding and to be represented therein by counsel of its
choice. Developer shall not settle, adjust, or compromise any claim, action, adjustment or
proceeding without prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed.
19.4 Delivery of Proceeds to City. In the event that, notwithstanding the
"lender's loss payable endorsement" requirement set forth above, the proceeds of any
55A-48
casualty insurance policy described herein are paid to Developer, Developer shall, subject
to any superior rights of the Senior Lender, deliver such proceeds to the City immediately
upon receipt.
19.5 Application of Casualty Insurance Proceeds. Any proceeds collected (the
"Proceeds") under any casualty insurance policy described in this Agreement shall be
disbursed to Developer as provided below, but only upon fulfillment of each of the
following conditions (the "Restoration Conditions") within ninety (90) days (unless
extended by mutual agreement of Developer and City) following the occurrence of the
receipt of the Proceeds:
(a) Developer shall demonstrate to City's reasonable satisfaction
that the Proceeds (together with amounts deposited by Developer pursuant to subparagraph
(b) and any undisbursed loan and tax credit proceeds available to the Developer) will be
adequate to repair the Improvements and to restore the fair market value of the Property,
within a time period reasonably determined by City, to at least the value it had immediately
prior to sustaining the damage. Such demonstration shall include delivery to City of: (i)
plans and specifications reasonably satisfactory to City; and, (ii) a construction contract in
form and content, and with a contractor, reasonably satisfactory to City;
(b) To the extent that the Proceeds (together with all
undisbursed Loan Proceeds and any other financing proceeds available to the Developer)
are insufficient to accomplish the restoration required above, Developer shall deliver to
City funds (the "Shortfall Funds") in the amount of such shortfall, which funds shall be
assigned to City as security for Developer's obligation hereunder and held and disbursed
in the same manner as the Proceeds;
(c) Developer shall execute such documents as City reasonably
requires to evidence and secure Developer's obligation to use all amounts disbursed for the
diligent restoration of the Property; and,
(d) No Event of Default shall remain uncured.
19.6 Method of Disbursement and Undisbursed Funds. Any Proceeds and
Shortfall Funds to be disbursed to Developer shall be held by the Senior Lender if a Senior
Loan is outstanding, and disbursed in accordance with the Senior Loan Documents or, if
no Senior Loan, then held by the City and disbursed in accordance with the City's then
customary disbursement procedures and related provisions. Any amounts remaining
undisbursed following completion of such restoration shall be returned to Developer up to
the amount of any Shortfall Funds deposited by Developer, and any other amounts
remaining shall either be paid to Developer or applied by the Senior Lender, or the City in
the absence of a Senior Loan, as the case may be against any obligations that are secured
by a lien on the Property, as they elect in their sole and absolute discretion.
19.7 Failure to Satisfy Conditions. In the event that Developer fails to fulfill
the Restoration Conditions within one hundred and eighty (180) days (unless extended
pursuant to Section 19.5) following the date Proceeds are received, the Proceeds shall be
applied by City against any obligations to City that are secured by a lien on the Property,
55A-49
and the selection of which such obligations to apply the Proceeds against shall be made by
City in its sole and absolute discretion.
19.8 Restoration. Nothing in this Section 19 shall be construed to excuse
Developer from repairing and restoring all damage to the Property in accordance with other
Loan Document provisions, regardless of whether insurance proceeds are available or
sufficient.
19.9 Condemnation; Treatment of Compensation. Subject to any
superior rights of Senior Lender, Developer hereby assigns to the City, as security for all
obligations to City secured by a lien on the Property, all amounts payable to Developer in
connection with any Condemnation, and any proceeds of any related settlement
(collectively, "Compensation"). Subject to any superior rights of Senior Lender, Developer
shall deliver such remaining Compensation to City immediately upon receipt. If the taking
results in a loss of the Property to an extent that, in the reasonable opinion of City, renders
or is likely to render the Property not economically viable or if, in City's reasonable
judgment Developer's security is otherwise impaired, City may apply the Compensation
received due to judgment or settlement in connection with any condemnation or other
taking to reduce the unpaid obligations secured in such order as City may determine, and
without any adjustment in the amount or due dates of payments due under the Note. If so
applied, any award in excess of the unpaid balance of the Note and other sums due to City
shall be paid to Developer or Developer's assignee. City shall have no obligation to take
any action in connection with any actual or threatened condemnation or other proceeding.
19.9.1 Notwithstanding the foregoing, as long as the value of City's liens
are not impaired, any condemnation proceeds may be used by the Developer for repair
and/or restoration of the Project.
19.9.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the tax credit compliance
period for the Project, as determined under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code, any
condemnation proceeds may be used by the Developer for repair and/or restoration of the
Proj ect.
19.10 Waiver of Subrogation. Developer hereby waives all rights to recover
against the City (or any officer, employee, agent or representative of City) for any loss
incurred by Developer from any cause insured against or required by any Loan Document,
to be insured against; provided, however, that this waiver of subrogation shall not be
effective with respect to any insurance policy if the coverage thereunder would be
materially reduced or impaired as a result. Developer shall use its best efforts to obtain
only policies that permit the foregoing waiver of subrogation.
20. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
20.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following, whatever the
reason therefore which is not cured, shall constitute an Event of Default by Developer:
(a) Developer fails to make any payment of principal or interest
under the Inclusionary Promissory Note when due, and such failure is not cured within ten
55A-50
(10) Business Days after Developer's receipt of written notice that such payment was not
received when due;

payment of money under any Loan Document, and such failure is not cured within ten (10)
Business Days after Developer's receipt of written notice that such obligation was not
performed when due;

obligations described in subparagraphs (a) and (b) above) under any Loan Document, and
such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after Developer's receipt of written notice
that such obligation was not performed; provided that, if cure cannot reasonably be effected
within such thirty (30)-day period, such failure shall not be an Event of Default so long as
Developer (in any event, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notice)
commences to cure, and thereafter diligently (in any event within ninety (90) days after
receipt of such notice) prosecutes such cure to completion;
(d) Any representation or warranty in any Loan Document
proves to have been incorrect in any material respect when made;

extended pursuant to Section 19.5) and thereafter diligently restores the Property in
accordance with this Agreement;
(f) Work on the construction ceases for thirty (30) consecutive
days for any reason (other than governmental orders, decrees or regulations, acts of God or
any other deity, strikes or other causes beyond Developer's reasonable control);

Governmental Authority from constructing and/or occupying the Improvements and such
injunction or prohibition continues unstayed for sixty (60) days or more for any reason;
(h) Developer is dissolved, liquidated or terminated, or all or
substantially all of the assets of Developer are sold or otherwise transferred without the
City Project Manager's prior written consent;
0 Developer is the subject of an order for relief by a
bankruptcy court, or is unable or admits its inability to pay its debts as they mature, or
makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or Developer applies for or consents to
the appointment of any receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator, liquidator, rehabilitator or
similar officer for it or any part of its property; or any receiver, trustee, custodian,
conservator, liquidator, rehabilitator or similar officer is appointed without the application
or consent of Developer and the appointment continues undischarged or unstayed for
ninety (90) days; or Developer institutes or consents to any bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution, custodianship,
conservatorship, liquidation, construction or similar proceeding relating to it or any part of
55A-51
its property; or any similar proceeding is instituted without the consent of Developer and
continues undismissed or unstayed for ninety (90) days; or any judgment, writ, warrant of
attachment or execution, or similar process is issued or levied against any property of
Developer and is not released, vacated or fully bonded within ninety (90) days after its
issue or levy; or
0) (i) any of the Senior Loan Documents is revoked or
terminated, in whole or in part and for any reason (except due to repayment of such loans),
without the City Project Manager's prior written consent, or (ii) Developer defaults or
otherwise fails to perform any of its duties or obligations under or in connection with any
of the Senior Loan Documents, subject to all applicable notice and cure periods, or (iii) any
of the Senior Loan Documents is amended, supplemented or otherwise modified without
City's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, City hereby agrees that
any cure of any default made or tendered under this Agreement or under the other
Inclusionary Loan Documents by Developer's Limited Partner shall be deemed to be a cure
by Developer and shall be accepted or rejected on the same basis as if made or tendered by
Developer.
20.2 Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default,
City may, at its option and in its absolute discretion, do any or all of the following:
(a) By written notice to Developer, declare the principal of all amounts
owing under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued interest and other amounts
owing in connection therewith, to be immediately due and payable, regardless of any other
specified due date; provided that any Event of Default described in Section 20.1 (e) shall
automatically, without notice or other action on City's part, cause all such amounts to be
immediately due and payable;
(b) In its own right or by a court -appointed receiver, take possession of
the Property, enter into contracts for and otherwise proceed with the completion of the
construction by expenditure of its own funds;
(c) Exercise any of its rights under the Loan Documents and any rights
provided by law, including, without limitation, the right to seek specific performance and
the right to foreclose on any security and exercise any other rights with respect to any
security, all in such order and manner as City elects in its sole and absolute discretion; and,
(d) Suspend or terminate the award of City funds if Developer fails to
comply with any term of such award.
20.3 Cumulative Remedies: No Waiver. City's rights and remedies under the
Loan Documents are cumulative and in addition to all rights and remedies provided by law.
The exercise by City of any right or remedy shall not constitute a cure or waiver of any
default, nor invalidate any notice of default or any act done pursuant to any such notice,
nor prejudice the City in the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver of any default
shall be implied from any omission by City to take action on account of such default if
55A-52
such default persists or is repeated. No waiver of any default shall affect any default other
than the default expressly waived, and any such waiver shall be operative only for the time
and to the extent stated. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document shall be
construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same provision. City's consent to or
approval of any act by Developer requiring further consent or approval shall not be deemed
to waive or render unnecessary City's consent to or approval of any subsequent act. The
City's acceptance of the late performance of any obligation shall not constitute a waiver by
City of the right to require prompt performance of all further obligations; City's acceptance
of any performance following the sending or filing of any notice of default shall not
constitute a waiver of either party's right to proceed with the exercise of its remedies for
any unfulfilled obligations; and City's acceptance of any partial performance shall not
constitute a waiver by City of any rights.
21. MISCELLANEOUS
21.1 Obligations Unconditional and Independent. Notwithstanding the
existence at any time of any obligation or liability of City to Developer, or any other claim
by developer against City, in connection with the Loan or otherwise, Developer hereby
waives any right it might otherwise have: (a) to offset any such obligation, liability or claim
against Developer's obligations under the Loan Documents; or, (b) to claim that the
existence of any such outstanding obligation, liability or claim excuses the nonperformance
by Developer of any of its obligations under the Loan Documents.

setting forth rights and obligations of Developer and the City, and no other person shall
have any rights hereunder or by reason hereof.
21.5 Binding Effect; Assienment of Obligations. This Agreement shall bind,
and shall inure to the benefit of, Developer and City and their respective successors and

Documents. No modification of any Loan Document (including waivers of rights and
conditions) shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom
enforcement of such modification is sought, and then only in the specific instance and for
the specific purpose given.
55A-54
21.7 Governing Law. All of the Loan Documents shall be governed by, and
construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California and Federal
law, whichever is more stringent. Developer irrevocably and unconditionally submits to
the jurisdiction of the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Orange
or the United States District Court of the Central District of California, as City may deem

section 41-1904(c), developers may pay an in -lieu fee in certain instances to satisfy the
inclusionary requirements. These fimds are deposited into the hiclusionary Housing Fund, as

to Developer in order to make possible the acquisition, development, construction, ownership,

3.3 Calculation of Rent for Restricted Units:
A. The affordable rents charged for the Restricted Units must comply with the
standards set forth by the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC).

C. On an annual basis, the City shall confirm the Developer's submission of the
maximum allowable schedule of incomes and rents (less utility allowance appropriate for the
Restricted Units), which shall correspond to the maximum rent levels allowed by TCAC. hi no event

D. Developer, its successors and assigns, shall not charge rents for the Restricted Units
in excess of the amounts set forth in the tables as adjusted from time -to -time by TCAC.

Rental Subsidies, for so long as may be required by the Housing Authority, as set annually by the
Housing Authority.
G. Recertification of Tenant Income:

basis.
(2) Developer shall allow the City to conduct periodic reviews of tenant files
and files relating to affirmative marketing and outreach to ensure the
Project's compliance with applicable regulations and guidelines.
(3) Restricted Units continue to qualify as Affordable Housing despite a
temporary non-compliance caused by increases in the incomes of existing
tenants if actions satisfactory to the City are being taken to ensure that all
vacancies are filled in accordance with this section until the non-compliance
is corrected.
(4) All tenant certifications and related files shall be made available to the City
either on -site or via an internet based document sharing platform selected
by the Managing General Partner. Upon City's request therefore, the
Managing General Partner will make available documents or certifications
containing tenant information or personal information.
(5) The City will indemnify and hold the Developer and each of the Managing
General Partner and Administrative General Partner (and their respective
affiliates) harmless from and against any and all losses, damages and
liabilities (including reasonable attorney's fees) which any of them may
incur by reason of the unauthorized release or disclosure of tenant files, or
any portion thereof, or information included therein (including any
information that could be used, either directly or indirectly, to identify any
8
55A-71
person, whether a natural person or a legal entity), including any such
release or disclosure that violates any applicable State, federal or other local
laws, ordinances, regulations, or codes, by the City or its officers,
employees, agents and/or personnel and such unauthorized release or
disclosure is due to the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct by the
City or such officers, employees, agents and/or personnel.
3.4 Construction and Maintenance of the Property:
A. Construction and Maintenance. Solely at Developer's expense, Developer agrees to
maintain the Property (and all abutting grounds, sidewalks, roads, parking and landscape areas which
Developer is otherwise required to maintain) in a clean and good condition and repair in compliance
with all applicable housing quality standards and state and local code requirements, and keep the
Property free from any accumulation of debris and waste materials. City, and any of its employees,
agents, contractors or designees, shall have the right to enter upon the Property at reasonable times

expiration of a reasonable period of time not to exceed thirty (30) days from the date of written notice
from the City, unless such condition cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, in which case
Developer shall have such additional time as reasonably necessary to complete such cure, the City
may perform the necessary maintenance and Developer shall pay all reasonable costs incurred for
such maintenance. The City shall inspect the Property annually after the date of issuance of the
Certificate of Completion as described in Section 17 of the Agreement.
B. Renovations. Following issuance of a Certificate of Completion, Developer shall
not remove, demolish or materially alter any Improvement without City's prior consent, except to
make non-structural repairs that preserve or increase the Property's value, and shall promptly
restore, in a good and professional manner, any Improvement (or other aspect or portion of the
Property) that is damaged or destroyed from any cause, subject to Force Majeure.
C. Handicapped Accessibility. Developer shall comply with: (a) Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and implementing regulations at 24 CFR 8C; and (b) the Americans
with Disabilities Act of 1990, and implementing regulations at 28 CFR 35-36 in order to make the
Project readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities.
D. Local Sourcing Plan. Developer agrees to make a good faith effort to encourage
contractors and suppliers to hire and procure locally. The City has reviewed and approved

challenge in court, a court decision in connection with the lease; and,

regard to termination of tenancy.
C. Developer shall comply with and be bound by the conflict of interest provisions set
forth in all applicable state regulations pertaining to conflict of interest.
D. The covenants established in these Restrictions, and any amendments hereto
approved by the City, shall be binding for the benefit of and in favor of the City and its respective
successors and assigns, without regard to technical classification and designation. These
Restrictions shall remain in effect for fifty-five (55) years from the date of issuance of the
Certificate of Occupancy for the Project, or repayment of the Inclusionary Loan, whichever is
longer. In its discretion, the City may defer repayment of the Loan or the City may agree to such
reasonable modifications to the requirements of these Restrictions, as the City may determine are

verifications, Project rents and Project inspections must be retained for the
most recent five year period, until five years after the Affordability Period
terminates. Developer shall cooperate with the City to retain all books and
records relevant to the Loan Agreement for a minimum of five years after
the expiration of the Loan Agreement and any and all amendments hereto,
or for five years after the conclusion or resolution of any and all audits or
litigation relevant to the Loan Agreement, whichever is later. The City, the
State, and/or their representatives shall have unrestricted reasonable access
to all locations, books, and records for the purpose of monitoring, auditing,
or otherwise examining said locations, books, and records with or without
prior notice.
(3) If so directed by the City upon termination of the Loan Agreement,
Developer shall cause all records, accounts, documentation and all other
materials relevant to the work to be delivered to the City, as depository.

Project shall be accessible at any time to the authorized representatives of
the City on reasonable prior notice, for the purpose of examination or audit.

which these Restrictions are in effect. Developer shall reasonably cooperate
with City in performing such audit.
(6) Developer shall permit the City to perform an Annual Physical Inspection

remain in effect for the term of the Agreement. Upon the sale, conveyance or other transfer of the
Property (a "Transfer") and the assumption of the obligations hereunder by a transferee,
Developer's liability for performance shall be terminated as to any obligation to be performed
hereunder after the date of such Transfer.
L Upon a Transfer of the Property, the transferee will be obligated to meet with the
City prior to closing of the Transfer to review the terms of these Restrictions and requirements of
the transferee therein. Any failure of transferee to meet with the City as required would constitute
a default under these Restrictions.

accordance with the terms thereof. Each of the Loan Documents, provide a means of enforcement
by the City if Developer is in breach of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, including liens
on the Property, deed restrictions and covenants running with the land.
K. The City agrees to provide Developer's Investor Limited Partner (as defined in the
Agreement) with notice of and an opportunity to cure any default. Any cure made or tendered by
the Investor Limited Partner shall be deemed a cure by Developer.

and, (c) the payment of all other sums, with interest thereon, advanced in accordance herewith to
protect the security of this Deed of Trust; and the performance of the covenants and agreements of
Trustor contained herein.
TRUSTOR AND THE BENEFICIARY COVENANT AND AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. The Agreement. This Deed of Trust is executed and delivered, along with the
Inclusionary Promissory Note, the Inclusionary Loan Agreement (the "Agreement"), and
Affordability Restrictions on Transfer of Property to benefit the Property. Trustor acknowledges that
but for the execution of this Deed of Trust, the Beneficiary would not enter into the Agreement or
Inclusionary Promissory Note secured by this Deed of Trust.
2. Trustor's Estate. Trustor is lawfully seized of the estate hereby conveyed and has the
right to grant and convey the Security; that other than this Deed of Trust, the Security is not
encumbered except for obligations secured by deeds of trust, or any other security agreement, to
secure financing or refinancing for the purchase and rehabilitation of the Property.
3. Repayment of the Loan. Trustor will promptly repay, when due, the principal loan
amount, as required by the Inclusionary Promissory Note secured by this Deed of Trust.
4. Subordination. This obligation secured by this Deed of Trust shall be subordinated to
the Senior Loan and the Senior Loan Deed of Trust, but the Inclusionary Affordability Restrictions
on Transfer of Property shall remain in a senior position to the Senior Loan and the Senior Loan Deed
of Trust.
5. Prior Mortgages and Deeds of Trust; Charges; Liens. Trustor shall perform all of
Trustor's obligations under any mortgage, deed of trust or other security agreement with a lien that
has priority over this Instrument, including Trustor's covenants to make payments when due (subject
to all applicable notice and cure provisions). Trustor will pay all taxes, assessments and other charges,
fines and impositions attributable to the Security that may attain a priority over this Deed of Trust, by
Trustor making any payment, when due, directly to the payee thereof. Trustor will promptly furnish
to the Beneficiary all notices of amounts due under this paragraph, and in the event Trustor makes
55A-85
payment directly, Trustor will promptly discharge any lien that has priority over this Deed of Trust;
provided that Trustor will not be required to discharge the lien of the Deed of Trust securing any
senior lender or any other lien described in this paragraph so long as Trustor will agree in writing to
the payment of the obligation secured by such lien in a manner acceptable to the Beneficiary, or will,
in good faith, contest such lien by, or defend enforcement of such lien in, legal proceedings, which
operate to prevent the enforcement of the lien or forfeiture of the Security, or any part thereof
6. Hazard Insurance. Trustor will keep the Security insured by such insurance policies
in such amounts and for such periods as called for in the Agreement. All insurance policies and
renewals thereof will include a standard mortgagee clause with standard lender's endorsement in favor
of the holder of any Senior Lender and the Beneficiary as their interests may appear and in a form
acceptable to the Beneficiary. The Beneficiary shall have the right to hold, or cause its designated
agent to hold, copies of the policies and renewals thereof, and Trustor shall promptly furnish to the
Beneficiary, or its designated agent, copies of the insurance policies or certificates of insurance, all
renewal notices and all receipts of paid premiums subject to the rights of any senior lender. In the
event of loss, Trustor will give prompt notice to the insurance carrier and the Beneficiary or its
designated agent. The Beneficiary, or its designated agent, may make proof of loss if not made
promptly by Trustor. The Beneficiary shall receive thirty (30) days advance notice of cancellation of
any insurance policies required under this Section.
Unless the Beneficiary and Trustor otherwise agree in writing, insurance proceeds, subject to
the rights of any senior lender, will be applied to restoration or repair of the Security damaged,
provided such restoration or repair is economically feasible and the security of this Deed of Trust is
not thereby impaired. If such restoration or repair is not economically feasible or if the security of
this Deed of Trust would be impaired, again, subject to the rights of any senior lender, the insurance
proceeds will be used to repay the loan secured by this Deed of Trust, with the excess, if any, paid to
Trustor. If the Security is abandoned by Trustor, or if Trustor fails to respond to the Beneficiary, or
its designated agent within thirty (30) days from the date notice is mailed by either of them to Trustor
that the insurance carrier offers to settle a claim for insurance benefits, the Beneficiary, or its
designated agent, is authorized to collect and apply the insurance proceeds at the Beneficiary's option,
either to restoration or repair of the Security or to repay the loan.
If the Security is acquired by the Beneficiary, all right, title and interest of Trustor in and to
any insurance policy, and in and to the proceeds thereof resulting from damage to the Security prior
to the sale or acquisition, will pass to the Beneficiary to the extent of the sums secured by this Deed
of Trust immediately prior to such sale or acquisition, subject to the rights of any senior lender.
7. Preservation and Maintenance of Security. Trustor will keep the Security in good
repair and will not commit waste or permit impairment or deterioration of the Security.
8. Protection of the Beneficiary's Security. If Trustor fails to perform the covenants and
agreements contained in this Deed of Trust, or if any action or proceeding is commenced that
materially affects the Beneficiary's interest in the Security, including, but not limited to, default under
the Deed of Trust securing any senior lender, eminent domain, insolvency, code enforcement, or
arrangements or proceedings involving a bankruptcy or decedent, then the Beneficiary, at the
Beneficiary's option, upon notice to Trustor, may make such appearances, disburse such sums and
take such action as it determines necessary to protect the Beneficiary's interest, including, but not
limited to, disbursement of reasonable attorneys' fees and entry upon the Security to make repairs.
55A-86
Any amounts disbursed by the Beneficiary pursuant to this paragraph, with interest thereon,
will become an indebtedness of Trustor secured by this Deed of Trust. Unless Trustor and the
Beneficiary agree to other terms of payment, such amount will be payable upon notice from the
Beneficiary to Trustor requesting payment thereof, and will bear interest from the date of
disbursement at the rate payable from time to time on outstanding principal under the Inclusionary
Promissory Note, unless payment of interest at such rate would be contrary to applicable law, in which
event such amounts will bear interest at the highest rate permissible under applicable law. Nothing
contained in this paragraph will require the Beneficiary to insure any expense or take any action
hereunder.
9. Inspection. The Beneficiary may make, or cause to be made, reasonable entries upon
and inspections of the Security upon reasonable prior notice during normal business hours; provided
that, the Beneficiary will give Trustor reasonable notice of inspection.
10. Forbearance by the Beneficiary Not a Waiver. Any forbearance by the Beneficiary in
exercising any right or remedy will not be a waiver of the exercise of any such right or remedy. The
procurement of insurance or the payment of taxes or other liens or charges by the Beneficiary will not
be a waiver of the Beneficiary's right to accelerate the maturity of the indebtedness secured by this
Deed of Trust.
11. Remedies Cumulative. All remedies provided in this Deed of Trust are distinct and
cumulative to any other right or remedy under this Deed of Trust, or any other document, or afforded
by law or equity, and may be exercised concurrently, independently or successively.
12. Successors and Assigns Bound. The covenants and agreements herein contained shall
bind, and the rights hereunder shall inure to, the respective successors and assigns of the Beneficiary
and Trustor subject to the provisions of this Deed of Trust.

manner: (a) any notice to Trustor provided for in this hiclusionary Deed of Trust will be given by

entitled to exercise every right provided for in this Deed of Trust, or by law upon occurrence of any
uncured breach, including the right to exercise the power of sale; (c) commence an action to foreclose

Beneficiary to enforce this Deed of Trust discontinued at any time prior to five (5) days before sale
of the Security pursuant to the power of sale contained in this Deed of Trust or at any time prior to

of the Senior Loan Deed of Trust), City shall have the absolute right at its option, without prior
8
55A-100
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. City may grant or deny such consent in its sole discretion and, if consent
should be given, any such transfer shall be subject to this section 13, 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 Borrower from any liability thereunder without the prior
written consent of City.
b. As used herein, "transfer" includes the Sale, agreement to sell, transfer or
conveyance of 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, so long as Borrower complies with the provisions of the Agreement and the Affordability
Covenants and Restrictions relating to such leasing activity, nor shall it include a conveyance of
the Property to a limited partnership in which Borrower is a general partner, or to a corporation or
limited liability company that is wholly owned by the Borrower or its affiliates and that is formed
for the sole purpose of owning and operating the Property, or the sale back to the Borrower. In the
event of any Refinancing or partial Refinancing in an amount in excess of the balance of the Senior
Loan, without the prior written consent of City (which consent City may grant or deny in its sole
discretion), then the entire outstanding balance of the Inclusionary Loan shall be repaid to the City
at the time of each Refinancing or partial Refinancing. Additionally, a "Transfer" shall not include
any transaction not considered a "transfer' under section 16.2 of the Agreement or which is
otherwise permitted under Section 16.3 or 16.4 of the Agreement.
14. Event of Default.

period described therein ("Event of Default") hereunder: (a) failure by Borrower to make any
payments provided for herein, and if such default is not made good within ten (10) Business Days
after Developer's receipt of written notice that such payment was not received when due; (b) failure
by Borrower to perform any covenant or agreement in the Deed of Trust, the Agreement, or the
Affordability Covenants and Restrictions within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor by
City (or, in the event that more than thirty (30) days is reasonably required to cure such default,
should Borrower fail to promptly commence such cure, and diligently and continuously prosecute
same to completion); or (c) a default under the Senior Loan Deed of Trust that remains uncured
after any applicable notice has been provided and the expiration of any applicable cure period
therefore, if any, provided therein.
15. Remedies.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, after any applicable notice has been provided
and the expiration of any applicable cure period, City may declare all sums evidenced hereby
immediately due and payable by delivery to the Trustee named in the Deed of Trust securing this
9
55A-101
Note, and to Borrower, written declaration of default and demand for sale, and 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 City may foreclose on the Deed of Trust. City shall also deposit with Trustee
the Deed of Trust, this Note and all documents evidencing expenditures secured thereby and
evidenced hereby. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (and so long as such Event of
Default shall continue), the entire balance of principal shall bear interest at the rate of the Note
plus four percent (4%). No delay or omission on the part of the City in exercising any right under
this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver of such right.
16. Attorney Fees.
If this Inclusionary Promissory Note is not paid when due or if any Event of Default occurs,
Borrower promises to pay all costs of enforcement and collection, including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorneys' fees, whether or not any action or proceeding is brought to enforce the
provisions hereof.
17. Severability.
Every provision of this Note is intended to be severable. In the event any term or provision
hereof is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction, to be illegal or invalid for any reason
whatsoever, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the balance of the terms and provisions
hereof, which terms and provisions shall remain binding and enforceable.

55A-102
a. Subject to the applicable cure periods set forth in section 14, and subject to the further
provisions of this section 21, failure or delay by the Borrower to perform any term or provision of
this Note constitutes a default under this Note. The Borrower must commence to cure, correct, or
remedy such failure or delay and shall complete such cure, correction or remedy with reasonable
diligence.
b. The City shall give written notice of default to the Borrower and the Investor Limited
Partner (as defined in the Agreement) specifying the default complained of by the City. Delay in
giving such notice shall not constitute a waiver of any default nor shall it change the time of default.
c. Except in the case of a monetary event of default, the Borrower 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 the applicable time period set forth
herein after receipt of written notice (or such additional time as may be deemed by the City to be
reasonably necessary to correct the default).
d. Any failures or delays by the City 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 City in asserting any of its rights and remedies shall not deprive the City of its right to institute
and maintain any actions or proceedings that it may deem necessary to protect, assert, or enforce
any such rights or remedies.
e. If a monetary event of default occurs under the terms of this Note or the Deed of Trust,
prior to exercising any remedies thereunder, City shall give Borrower written notice of such
default. Borrower shall have a period of ten (10) Business Days after such notice is received within
which to cure the default prior to exercise of remedies by City under this Note and the Deed of
Trust.
f If a non -monetary event of default occurs under the terms of this Note or the Deed of
Trust, prior to exercising any remedies thereunder, City shall give Borrower notice of such default.
If the default is reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) days, Borrower shall have
such period to effect a cure prior to exercise of remedies by the City under this Note and the Deed
of Trust. If the default is such that it is not reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30)
days, and Borrower: (i) initiates corrective action within said period; and, (ii) diligently,
continually, and in good faith works to effect a cure as soon as possible, then borrower shall have
such additional time as is reasonably necessary to cure the default prior to exercise of any remedies
by City. In no event shall City 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 and eighty (180) days after the first notice of default is given.
22. Insurance and Condemnation
In the event of any fire or other casualty to the Property or eminent domain proceedings
resulting in condemnation of the Property, or any part thereof, Borrower shall have the right to
rebuild the Property, and to use all available insurance or condemnation proceeds therefor,
11
55A-103
provided that: (a) such proceeds are sufficient to keep the Inclusionary Loan in balance and rebuild
the Property in a manner that provides adequate security to City for repayment of the Inclusionary
Loan, or if such proceeds are insufficient, then Borrower shall have Raided any deficiency; (b)
City shall have the right to approve plans and specifications for any major rebuilding, and the right
to approve disbursements of insurance or condemnation proceeds for rebuilding under a
construction escrow or similar arrangement; and, (c) no material uncured default then exists under
this Note or the Deed of Trust. If the casualty or condemnation affects only part of the Property
and total rebuilding is infeasible, then proceeds may be used for partial rebuilding and partial
repayment of the Inclusionary Loan in a manner that provides adequate security for repayment of
the remaining balance of the hnclusionary Loan.
23. Force Maieure.
Notwithstanding specific provisions of this Note, performance hereunder shall not be
deemed to be in default where delays or defaults are due to: war; terrorism; insurrection; strikes;

enemy; epidemics; quarantine restrictions; freight embargoes; lack of transportation;
governmental restrictions or priority; litigation; unusually severe weather; inability to secure

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 Note may

SCOPE OF WORK & SCHEDULE OF PERFORMANCE
Located at 609 N. Spurgeon Street, at the northwest comer of the intersection of French Street and
E. Santa Ana Boulevard, the 1.74-acre Project site was home to Santa Ana United Methodist
Church, a well -established anchor in the community. The Project site is one contiguous,
rectangular shaped parcel which previously had two church buildings fronting Santa Ana
Boulevard and a large surface parking lot located on the northern half of the site fronting French
Street. Both church buildings have been demolished. The entire site is designated Urban
Neighborhood in the City of Santa Ana 1998 General Plan and zoned Urban Neighborhood 2 (UN-
2) in the Transit Zoning Code.
The Proposed Project includes the development of a single residential building with 93 units
surrounding an interior, landscaped courtyard. In total, the Project proposes 81,883 square feet of
habitable residential building area and 29,297 square feet of open space. Developed at an overall
density of 53.4 units per acre, there will be an estimated 30 1-bedroom units, 38 2-bedroom units,
and 24 3-bedroom units. Seven of the 2-bedroom units and seven of the 3-bedroom units will be
two story townhomes accessible from the street. The remaining 79 units will be flats/typical
apartment units located on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th floors over ground level parking. The building has
been designed with the two-story townhome units on the exterior fronting Spurgeon and French
Streets and transitioning to a four-story courtyard building in the center of the site. This provides a
gradual transition from any surrounding lower density uses and visually breaks up the mass of the
building. A 2,576 square foot community center, 984 square foot leasing/property management
office and 7,267 square feet of flexible non-residential space will be located on the ground floor
facing Santa Ana Boulevard activating the street frontage and interfacing with the proposed Santa
Ana Streetcar platform to be located at the corner of Santa Ana Boulevard and French Street. One
vehicular entry point to the site is provided off French Street. The entry point is a 24-foot driveway
providing direct access to the parking garage. Careful consideration for the character and scale of
surrounding neighborhood was taken to ensure that the project architecture and massing blends in
with the existing surrounding uses.
The Project proposes the Main Street Modem architectural style fronting Santa Ana Boulevard and
the Mission Revival architectural style fronting the other three streets to be complementary with
the church and the surrounding neighborhoods. The Main Street Modem design is intended to
complement the OC Streetcar and activate the street frontage. The Project includes both wall and
roof plane articulation, with an entry plaza and grand staircase entry from Santa Ana Boulevard
and carries the design elements to each elevation, including the inner portions of the site. The
maximum building height of the Proposed Project is 52 feet for the buildings at the interior of the
site. Trash enclosures are provided at the northwest comer of the parking garage with pick-up
conveniently accessible from Spurgeon Street. The layout of the building creates several unique
outdoor areas including both passive and active spaces — a central landscaped courtyard, tot lot,
raised planters, drought -tolerant and native ground covers, breezeways and walkways for residents
to access community spaces and the surrounding neighborhood.

remedy under the Subordinate Loan Documents, it acquires by right of subrogation or otherwise
a lien on the Property which (but for this subsection) would be senior to the lien of the Senior
Deed of Trust, then, in that event, such lien shall be subject and subordinate to the lien of the
Senior Deed of Trust.
(c) Payments Before Senior Loan Default.
Until the Subordinate Lender receives a Default Notice of a Senior Loan Default from the
Senior Lender, Subordinate Lender shall be entitled to retain for its own account all payments
made under or pursuant to the Subordinate Loan Documents.
(d) Payments After Senior Loan Default.
Borrower agrees that, after it receives a Default Notice (or otherwise acquires knowledge)
of a Senior Loan Default, it will not make any payments under or pursuant to the Subordinate
Loan Documents (including but not limited to principal, interest, additional interest, late payment
charges, default interest, attorneys' fees, or any other sums secured by the Subordinate Loan
Documents) without Senior Lender's prior written consent. Subordinate Lender agrees that, after
it receives a Default Notice from Senior Lender with written instructions directing Subordinate
Lender not to accept payments from Borrower on account of the Subordinate Loan, it will not
accept any payments under or pursuant to the Subordinate Loan Documents or the
Unsubordinated Regulatory Agreement (including but not limited to principal, interest, additional
interest, late payment charges, default interest, attorneys' fees, or any other sums secured by the
Subordinate Loan Documents) without Senior Lender's prior written consent. If Subordinate
Lender receives written notice from Senior Lender that the Senior Loan Default which gave rise
to Subordinate Lender's obligation not to accept payments has been cured, waived, or otherwise
suspended by Senior Lender, the restrictions on payment to Subordinate Lender in this Section 5
shall terminate, and Senior Lender shall have no right to any subsequent payments made to
Subordinate Lender by Borrower prior to Subordinate Lender's receipt of a new Default Notice
from Senior Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(d).
(e) Remitting Subordinate Loan Payments to Senior Lender.
If, after Subordinate Lender receives a Default Notice from Senior Lender in accordance
with Section 5(d), Subordinate Lender receives any payments under the Subordinate Loan

Lender in writing, will be promptly remitted, in kind to Senior Lender, properly endorsed to
Senior Lender, to be applied to the principal of, interest on and other amounts due under the
Senior Loan Documents in accordance with the provisions of the Senior Loan Documents- By
executing this Agreement, Borrower specifically authorizes Subordinate Lender to endorse and
remit any such payments to Senior Lender, and specifically waives any and all rights to have such
payments returned to Borrower or credited against the Subordinate Loan. Borrower and Senior
Lender acknowledge and agree that payments received by Subordinate Lender, and remitted to
Senior Lender under this Section 5, shall not be applied or otherwise credited against the
Subordinate Loan, nor shall the tender of such payment to Senior Lender waive any Subordinate
Lour Default which may arise from the inability of Subordinate Lender to retain such payment or
apply such payment to the Subordinate Loan.
(f) intentionally Omitted.
(g) Affordability Restrictions Following Foreclosure of Senior Deed of Trust.
Subordinate Lender agrees that, although the Unsubordinated Regulatory Agreement
remains senior to the lien of the Senior Deed of Trust, in the event title to the Property is
transferred as a result of a foreclosure, a deed in lieu of foreclosure or other realization upon the
Property under the Senior Loan Documents, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in the Unsubordinated Regulatory Agreement, 92 of the units subject to restriction under the
Unsubordinated Regulatory Agreement shall be restricted for rental to and occupancy by

the Unsubordinated Regulatory Agreement, subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Senior
Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure any Subordinate Loan Default within
ninety (90) days following the date of such notice-, provided, however that Subordinate Lender

(b) Subordinate Lender's Agreement to Standstill.
If a Subordinate Loan Default occurs and is continuing, the Subordinate Lender agrees
that it will not accelerate the Subordinate Loan, commence foreclosure proceedings with respect
to the Property, collect rents, appoint (or seek the appointment of) a receiver or institute any other
collection or enforcement action specifically related to the enforcement of any terns of the
Subordinate Loan Documents or the Unsubordinated Regulatory Agreement without first giving
at least ninety (90) days' notice of a default under the Subordinate Loan and Subordinate Lender's
intent to exercise one of the preceding actions; provided, however, that such limitation on the
remedies of Subordinate Lender shall not derogate or otherwise limit Subordinate Lender's rights,
following an event of default under the Subordinate Loan Documents to (a) compute interest on
all amounts due and payable under the Subordinate Loan at the default rate described in the
Subordinate Loan Documents, (b) compute prepayment premiums and late charges, (c) enforce

Agreement, and (e) appear in, defend or bring an action in connection with the Property in
Subordinate Lender's capacity as a municipal authority to the extent required by law.
(c) Cross Default.
The Borrower and the Subordinate Lender agree that a Subordinate Loan Default shall
constitute a Senior Loan Default under the Senior Loan Documents and the Senior Lender shall
have the right to exercise all rights or remedies under the Senior Loan Documents in the same
manner as in the case of any other Senior Loan Default. If the Subordinate Lender notifies the
Senior Lender in writing that any Subordinate Loan Default of which the Senior Lender has
received a Default Notice has been cured or waived, as determined by the Subordinate Lender in
its sole discretion, then provided that Senior Lender has not conducted a sale of the Property
pursuant to its rights under the Senior Loan Documents, any Senior Loan Default under the
Senior Loan Documents arising solely from such Subordinate Loan Default shall be deemed
cured, and the Senior Loan shall be reinstated, provided, however, that the Senior Lender shall
not be required to return or otherwise credit for the benefit of the Borrower any default rate
interest or other default related charges or payments received by the Senior Lender during such
Senior Loan Default.

(a) Notice of Senior Loan Default and Cure Rights.
The Senior Lender shall deliver to the Subordinate Lender a Default Notice within five
(5) Business Days in each case where the Senior Lender has given a Default Notice to the
Borrower. Failure of the Senior lender to send a Default Notice to the Subordinate Lender shall
not prevent the exercise of the Senior Lender's rights and remedies under the First Mortgage
Loan Documents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement. The Subordinate Lender shall have
the right, but not the obligation, to cure any such Senior Loan Default as provided below.
Subordinate Lender may have up to thirty (30) days from the date of the Default Notice to cure
S uboali nation Agrv��nenl—Legacy Square A
55A-123
iW:cu:110:1
any monetary default under the Senior Loan Documents; provided, however, that the Senior
Lender shall be entitled during such 30-day period to continue to pursue its remedies with respect
to the Property. 'Subordinate Lender may have up to sixty (60) days from the date of the Default
Notice to cure a non -monetary default if during such 60-day period Subordinate Lender keeps
current all payments required by the Senior Loan Documents. hi the event that such a non -
monetary default creates an unacceptable level of risk relative to the Property, or Senior Lender's
secured position relative to the Property, as determined by Senior Lender in its sole discretion,
then Senior Lender may exercise during such 60-day period all available rights and remedies to
protect and preserve the Property and the rents, revenues and other proceeds from the Property.
All amounts paid by the Subordinate Lender to the Senior Lender to cure a Senior Loan Default
shall be deemed to have been advanced by the Subordinate Lender pursuant to, and shall be
secured by the lien of, the Subordinate Mortgage
(b) Cross Default.
The Subordinate Lender agrees that, notwithstanding any contrary provision contained in
the Subordinate Loan Documents, a Senior Loan Default shall not constitute a default under the
Subordinate Loan Documents if no other default occurred under the Subordinate Loan
Documents until either (i) the Senior Lender has accelerated the maturity of the Senior Loan, or
(ii) the Senior Lender has taken affirmative action to exercise its rights under the Senior to
collect rent, to appoint (or seek the appointment of) a receiver or to foreclo.se on (or to exercise a
power of sale contained in) the Senior. At any time after a Senior Loan Default is determined to
constitute a default under the Subordinate Loan Documents, the Subordinate Lender shall be
permitted to pursue its remedies for default under the Subordinate Loan Documents, subject to
the restrictions and limitations of this Agreement. If at any time the Borrower cures any Senior
Loan Default to the satisfaction of the Senior Lender, as evidenced by written notice from the
Senior lender to the Subordinate Lender, any default under the Subordinate Loan Documents
arising solely from such Senior Loan Default shall be deemed cured and the Subordinate Loan
shall be retroactively reinstated as if such Senior Loan Default had never occurred.
8. Conflict.
'I he Borrower, the Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lender each agrees that, in the
event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of the Senior Loan Documents, the
Subordinate Loan Documents and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall
govern and control solely as to the following: (a) the relative priority of the security interests of
the Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lender in the Property; (b) the timing of the exercise of
remedies by the Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lender under the Senior and the Subordinate
Mortgage, respectively; and (c) solely as between the Senior Lender and the Subordinate
Lender, the notice requirements, cure rights, and the other rights and obligations which the
Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lender have agreed to as expressly provided in this
Agreement. Borrower acknowledges that the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not,
and shall not be deemed to: extend Borrower's time to cure any Senior Loan Default or
Subordinate Loan Default, as the case may be; give the Borrower the right to notice of any Senior
Loan Default or Subordinate Loan Default, as the case may be other than that, if any, provided,
