Staff is recommending a one-year extension to allow additional time for staff to evaluate a separate application submitted by the applicant to modify the Approved Project. State law and the Newport Beach Municipal Code (NBMC) require City Council consideration of a development agreement or an amendment to a development agreement. RECOMMENDATION: a) Conduct a public hearing; b) Find all significant environmental concerns for the Approved Project have been addressed in a previously approved Mitigated Negative Declaration No. ND2010-008 (SCH 2O10091052) and an Errata to Mitigated Negative Declaration No. ND2010-008 (together referred as "MND"), and that the City of Newport Beach intends to use said document for the proposed First Amendment to Agreement, and further that there are no additional reasonable alternative or mitigation measures that should be considered in conjunction with the First Amendment to Agreement; and c) Waive full reading, direct the City Clerk to read by title only, and introduce Ordinance No. 2022-16, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Newport Beach, California, Amending the Development Agreement Between the City of Newport Beach and Golf Realty Fund (PA2022-038), and pass to second reading on July 12, 2022. 18-1 Ordinance No. 2022-16: Amendment to The Tennis Club at Newport Beach Development Agreement No. DA2022-001 (PA2022-038) June 28, 2022 Page 2 DISCUSSION: On March 27, 2012, the City Council approved entitlements and the Development Agreement for the Approved Project to reconstruct the existing 3,725-square-foot tennis clubhouse, reduce the total number of tennis courts from 24 to seven including one lighted stadium court, and construct a 27-unit boutique hotel with a 2,200-square-foot guest center and a 9,700-square-foot spa/fitness center, and five single -unit residential dwellings. The City Council also adopted Newport Beach Country Club Planned Community Development Plan (PC-47) for the subject site as part of the overall development of the Newport Beach Country Club properties that also includes the adjacent Newport Beach Country Club Golf Course site. On November 20, 2018, the Zoning Administrator approved a coastal development permit for the demolition of existing structures on the subject property, implementation of the Approved Project, and further subdivision of the subject property. The permit was due to expire two years from the date of approval; and thus far, has received two, one-year extensions and is due to expire on November 20, 2022, unless another extension is granted. On November 2, 2021, the applicant filed an application to modify and expand the Approved Project to increase the number of hotel units from 27 to 41 units with an additional 4,686 square feet of ancillary uses, and to add one additional tennis court for a total of eight tennis courts. The proposed changes require the reconsideration of all land use entitlements previously granted to the Approved Project, including the Development Agreement. The request to modify the Approved Project is a separate application from the subject Development Agreement extension request. Development Agreement Extension The Development Agreement for the Approved Project became effective on September 23, 2012, with a 10-year term, and it is due to expire on September 23, 2022. The applicant requested a 10-year extension as he feels it is sufficient to implement the revised project under consideration. The evaluation of the revised project will not be completed before expiration of the current Development Agreement. Instead, staff is recommending a one-year extension to the existing Development Agreement, allowing enough time to complete the review of the revised project. The applicant has agreed to the one-year extension. Extending the Development Agreement one year would provide enough time for both the applicant and the City of Newport Beach (City) to renegotiate terms for a future amended Development Agreement consistent with the revised project. Planning Commission Review The Planning Commission held a public hearing on May 12, 2022, which was continued to the May 26, 2022, special meeting. There was no discussion or public testimony taken at the May 12, 2022, meeting. 18-2 Ordinance No. 2022-16: Amendment to The Tennis Club at Newport Beach Development Agreement No. DA2022-001 (PA2022-038) June 28, 2022 Page 3 At the May 26, 2022 hearing, the Planning Commission discussed the overall extension request. One member of the public provided oral comments. At the conclusion of the public hearing, the Planning Commission voted 6-0 (6 ayes, 1 absent) to adopt Resolution No. PC2022-008, recommending approval of the amendment to the Development Agreement to extend the term one year, from September 27, 2022 to September 27, 2023. The May 26, 2022 Planning Commission meeting minutes excerpts and resolution are attached for reference as Attachments B and C. FISCAL IMPACT: The applicant is required to reimburse the City for all costs associated with the Development Agreement extension request. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: On March 27, 2012, the Newport Beach City Council approved Mitigated Negative Declaration No. ND2010-008 (SCH 2O10091052) and an Errata to Mitigated Negative Declaration No. ND2010-008 (together referred as MND) that addressed the potential environmental effects associated with the Approved Project. All environmental concerns for the Approved Project are addressed in previously approved MND. The proposed First Amendment does not change the Approved Project but rather only extends the term of the Agreement by one year. The proposed First Amendment does not amend development standards, development requirements, or required mitigation measures identified in MND. NOTICING: Notice of this hearing was published in the Daily Pilot, mailed to all owners of property within 300 feet of the boundaries of the site (excluding intervening rights -of -way and waterways) including the applicant, and posted on the subject property at least 10 days before the scheduled meeting, consistent with the provisions of the Newport Beach Municipal Code. Additionally, the item appeared on the agenda for this meeting, which was posted at City Hall and on the City website.

In Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo (1984) 37 Cal.3d 465, the California Supreme Court held that a construction company was not exempt from a city's growth control ordinance even though the city and construction company had entered into a consent judgment (tantamount to a contract under California law) establishing the company's vested rights to develop its property consistent with the zoning. The California Supreme Court reached this result because the consent judgment failed to address the timing of development.

City agrees to cooperate with Property Owner at no cost to City in resolving the conflict in a manner which minimizes any financial impact of the conflict upon Property Owner.

Any City ordinance, resolution, rule, regulation, program, or official policy that is necessary to protect persons on the Property or in the immediate vicinity from conditions dangerous to their health or safety, as reasonably determined by City, shall apply to the Property, even though the application of the ordinance, resolution, rule regulation, program, or official policy would result in the impairment of Property Owner's vested rights under this Agreement. 4.3.7 Uniform Building Standards.

City's failure to timely provide or conduct an annual review shall not constitute a Default hereunder by City. 7.2 Property Owner Obligation to Demonstrate Good Faith Compliance A10-00773 001.06.11 FINAL 13 18-33 During each annual review by City, Property Owner is required to demonstrate good faith compliance with the terms of the Agreement. Property Owner agrees to fiunish such evidence of good faith compliance as City, in the reasonable exercise of its discretion, may require, thirty (30) days prior to each anniversary of the Effective Date during the Term. 7.3 Procedure. The City Council of City shall conduct a duly noticed hearing and shall determine, on the basis of substantial evidence, whether or not Property Owner has, for the period under review, complied with the terms of this Agreement. If the City Council finds that Property Owner has so complied, the annual review shall be concluded. If the City Council finds, on the basis of substantial evidence, that Property Owner has not so complied, written notice shall be sent to Property Owner by first class mail of the City Council's finding of non-compliance, and Property Owner shall be given at least ten (10) days to cure any noncompliance that relates to the payment of money and thirty (30) days to cure any other type of noncompliance. If a cure not relating to the payment of money cannot be completed within thirty (30) days for reasons which are beyond the control of Property Owner, Property Owner must commence the cure within such thirty (30) days and diligently pursue such cure to completion. If Property Owner fails to cure such noncompliance within the time(s) set forth above, such failure shall be considered to be a Default and City shall be entitled to exercise the remedies set forth in Article 8 below. 7.4 Annual Review a Non -Exclusive Means for Determining and Requiring Cure of Propertv Owner's Default. The annual review procedures set forth in this Article 7 shall not be the exclusive means for City to identify a Default by Property Owner or limit City's rights or remedies for any such Default. 8. Events of Default. 8.1 General Provisions. In the event of any material default, breach, or violation of the terms of this Agreement ("Default'), the Party alleging a Default shall have the right to deliver a written notice (each, a "Notice of Default") to the defaulting Party. The Notice of Default shall specify the nature of the alleged Default and a reasonable manner and sufficient period of time (ten (10) days if the Default relates to the failure to timely make a monetary payment due hereunder and not less than thirty (30) days in the event of non -monetary Defaults) in which the Default must be cured (the "Cure Period"). During the Cure Period, the Party charged shall not be considered in Default for the purposes of termination of this Agreement or institution of legal proceedings. If the alleged Default is cured within the Cure Period, then the Default thereafter shall be deemed not to exist. If a non -monetary Default cannot be cured during the Cure Period with the exercise of commercially reasonable diligence, the defaulting Party must promptly commence to cure as quickly as possible, and in no event later than thirty (30) days after it receives the Notice of Default, and thereafter diligently pursue said cure to completion. 8.2 Default by Property Owner. A10-00773 v401.06.11 FINAL 14 18-34 If Property Owner is alleged to have committed a non -monetary Default and it disputes the claimed Default, it may make a written request for an appeal hearing before the City Council within ten (10) days of receiving the Notice of Default, and a public hearing shall be scheduled at the next available City Council meeting to consider Property Owner's appeal of the Notice of Default. Failure to appeal a Notice of Default to the City Council within the ten (10) day period shall waive any right to a hearing on the claimed Default. If Property Owner's appeal of the Notice of Default is timely and in good faith but after a public hearing of Property Owner's appeal the City Council concludes that Property Owner is in Default as alleged in the Notice of Default, the accrual date for commencement of the thirty (30) day Cure Period provided in Section 8.1 shall be extended until the City Council's denial of Property Owner's appeal is communicated to Property Owner. 8.3 Cites Qption to Terminate Agreement. In the event of an alleged Property Owner Default, City may not terminate this Agreement without first delivering a written Notice of Default and providing Property Owner with the opportunity to cure the Default within the Cure Period, as provided in Section 8.1, and complying with Section 8.2 if Property Owner timely appeals any Notice of Default with respect to a non -monetary Default. A termination of this Agreement by City shall be valid only if good cause exists and is supported by evidence presented to the City Council at or in connection with a duly noticed public hearing to establish the existence of a Default. The validity of any termination may be judicially challenged by Property Owner. Any such judicial challenge must be brought within thirty (30) days of service on Property Owner, by first class mail, postage prepaid, of written notice of termination by City or a written notice of City's determination of an appeal of the Notice of Default as provided in Section 8.2. It is the intention of the Parties that, while the City Council may declare a default and initiate termination of this Agreement on the basis of substantial evidence in the administrative record, if the declaration of default is contested in court, the court will review the default claim de novo and base its decision on whether the preponderance of evidence supports the City Council's finding of breach. 8.4 Default by City. If Property Owner alleges a City Default and alleges that the City has not cured the Default within the Cure Period, Property Owner may pursue any equitable remedy available to it under this Agreement, including, without limitation, an action for a writ of mandamus, injunctive relief, or specific performance of City's obligations set forth in this Agreement. Upon a City Default, any resulting delays in Property Owner's performance hereunder shall neither be a Property Owner Default nor constitute grounds for termination or cancellation of this Agreement by City and shall, at Property Owner's option (and provided Property Owner delivers written notice to City within thirty (30) days of the commencement of the alleged City Default), extend the Term for a period equal to the length of the delay. 8.5 Waiver. Failure or delay by either Party in delivering a Notice of Default shall not waive that Party's right to deliver a future Notice of Default of the same or any other Default. 8.6 Specific Performance Remedy. A10-00773 v401.06.11 FINAL 15 18-35 Due to the size, nature, and scope of the Project, it will not be practical or possible to restore the Property to its pre-existing condition once implementation of this Agreement has begun. After such implementation, both Property Owner and City may be foreclosed from other choices they may have had to plan for the development of the Property, to utilize the Property or provide for other benefits and alternatives. Property Owner and City have invested significant time and resources and performed extensive planning and processing of the Project in agreeing to the terms of this Agreement and will be investing even more significant time and resources in implementing the Project in reliance upon the terms of this Agreement. It is not possible to determine the sum of money which would adequately compensate Property Owner or City for such efforts. For the above reasons, City and Property Owner agree that damages would not be an adequate remedy if either City or Property Owner fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, specific performance of this Agreement is necessary to compensate Property Owner if City fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement or to compensate City if Property Owner falls to carry out its obligations under this Agreement. 8.7 Monetary Damages. The Parties agree that monetary damages shall not be an available remedy for either Party for a Default hereunder by the other Party; provided, however, that (i) nothing in this Section 8.7 is intended or shall be interpreted to limit or restrict City's right to recover the Public Benefit Fees due from Property Owner as set forth herein; and (ii) nothing in this Section 8.7 is intended or shall be interpreted to limit or restrict Property Owner's indemnity obligations set forth in Article 10 or the right of the prevailing Party in any Action to recover its litigation expenses, as set forth in Section 8.10. 8.8 Additional City Remedy for Property Owner's Default In the event of any Default by Property Owner, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to City, whether legal or equitable, City shall be entitled to receive and retain any Development Exactions applicable to the Project or the Property, including any fees, grants, dedications, or improvements to public property which it may have received prior to Property Owner's Default without recourse from Property Owner or its successors or assigns. 8.9 No Personal Liability of City Officials Employees or Agents No City official, employee, or agent shall have any personal liability hereunder for a Default by City of any of its obligations set forth in this Agreement. 8.10 Recovery of Legal Expenses by Prevailing Partin •n Any Action In any judicial proceeding, arbitration, or mediation (collectively, an "Action") between the Parties that seeks to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or arises out of this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall recover all of its actual and reasonable costs and expenses, regardless of whether they would be recoverable under California Code of Civil Procedure section 1033.5 or California Civil Code section 1717 in the absence of this Agreement. These costs and expenses include expert witness fees, attorneys' fees, and costs of investigation and preparation before initiation of the Action. The right to recover these costs and expenses shall accrue upon initiation of the Action, regardless of whether the Action is prosecuted to a final judgment or decision. A10-00773 v401.06.11 FINAL 16 18-36 9. Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be deemed to be in Default where failure or delay in performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement is caused, through no fault of the Party whose performance is prevented or delayed, by floods, earthquakes, other acts of God, fires, wars, riots or similar hostilities, strikes or other labor difficulties, state or federal regulations, or court actions. Except as specified above, nonperformance shall not be excused because of the act or omission of a third person. In no event shall the occurrence of an event of force majeure operate to extend the Term of this Agreement. In addition, in no event shall the time for performance of a monetary obligation, including without limitation Property Owner's obligation to pay Public Benefit Fees, be extended pursuant to this Section. 10. Indemnity Obligations of Property Owner. 10.1 Indemnity Arising From Acts or Omissions of Property Owner. Property Owner shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City and City's officials, employees, agents, attorneys, and contractors (collectively, the "City's Affiliated Parties") from and against all suits, claims, liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, obligations, and expenses (including but not limited to attorneys' fees and costs) (collectively, a "Claim") that may arise, directly or indirectly, from the acts, omissions, or operations of Property Owner or Property Owner's agents, contractors, subcontractors, agents, or employees in the course of Development of the Project or any other activities of Property Owner relating to the Property or pursuant to this Agreement. City shall have the right to select and retain counsel to defend any Claim filed against City and/or any of City's Affiliated Parties, and Property Owner shall pay the reasonable cost for defense of any Claim. The indemnity provisions in this Section 10.1 shall commence on the Agreement Date, regardless of whether the Effective Date occurs, and shall survive the Termination Date. 10.2 Third PartLitigation.

Said indemnity obligation shall include payment of attorney's fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. City shall promptly notify Property Owner of any such Claim and City shall cooperate with Property Owner in the defense of such Claim. If City fails to promptly notify Property Owner of such Claim, Property Owner shall not be responsible to indemnify, defend, and hold City harmless from such Claim until Property Owner is so notified and if City fails to cooperate in the defense of a Claim Property Owner shall not be responsible to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City during the period that City so fails to cooperate or for any losses attributable thereto. City shall be entitled to retain separate counsel to represent City against the Claim and the City's defense costs for its separate counsel shall be included in Property Owner's indemnity obligation, provided that such counsel shall reasonably cooperate with Property Owner in an effort to minimize the total litigation expenses incurred by Property AI0-00773 0 01.06.11 FINAL 17 18-37 Owner. In the event either City or Property Owner recovers any attorney's fees, expert witness fees, costs, interest, or other amounts from the party or parties asserting the Claim, Property Owner shall be entitled to retain the same (provided it has fully performed its indemnity obligations hereunder). The indemnity provisions in this Section 10.2 shall commence on the Agreement Date, regardless of whether the Effective Date occurs, and shall survive the Termination Date. 10.3 EnvironmentalIndemnity. In addition to its indemnity obligations set forth in Section 10.1, from and after the Agreement Date Property Owner shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City and City's Affiliated Parties from and against any and all Claims for personal injury or death, property damage, economic loss, statutory penalties or fines, and damages of any kind or nature whatsoever, including without limitation attorney's fees, expert witness fees, and costs, based upon or arising from any of the following: (i) the actual or alleged presence of any Hazardous Substance on or under any of the Property in violation of any applicable Environmental Law; (ii) the actual or alleged migration of any Hazardous Substance from the Property through the soils or groundwater to a location or locations off of the Property; and (iii) the storage, handling, transport, or disposal of any Hazardous Substance on, to, or from the Property and any other area disturbed, graded, or developed by Property Owner in connection with Property Owner's Development of the Project. The foregoing indemnity obligations shall not apply to any Hazardous Substance placed or stored on a separate legal lot within the Property after the Lot Termination Date for said lot, as provided in Section 2.4 of this Agreement. The indemnity provisions in this Section 10.3 shall commence on the Agreement Date, regardless of whether the Effective Date occurs, and shall survive the Termination Date. 11. Assignment. Property Owner shall have the right to sell, transfer, or assign (hereinafter, collectively, a "Transfer') Property Owner's fee interest in to the Property, in whole or in part, to any person, partnership, joint venture, firm, or corporation (which successor, as of the effective date of the Transfer, shall become the "Property Owner" under this Agreement) at any time from the Agreement Date until the Termination Date; provided, however, that no such Transfer shall violate the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Section 66410 et sea.) or City's local subdivision ordinance and any such Transfer shall include the assignment and assumption of Property Owner's rights, duties, and obligations set forth in or arising under this Agreement as to the Property or the portion thereof so Transferred and shall be made in strict compliance with the following conditions precedent: (i) no transfer or assignment of any of Property Owner's rights or interest under this Agreement shall be made unless made together with the Transfer of all or a part of the Property; and (ii) prior to the effective date of any proposed Transfer, Property Owner (as transferor) shall notify City, in writing, of such proposed Transfer and deliver to City a written assignment and assumption, executed in recordable form by the transferring and successor Property Owner and in a form subject to the reasonable approval of the City Attorney of City (or designee), pursuant to which the transferring Property Owner assigns to the successor Property Owner and the successor Property Owner assumes from the transferring Property Owner all of the rights and obligations of the transferring Property Owner with respect to the Property or portion thereof to be so Transferred, including in the case of a partial Transfer the obligation to perform such obligations that must be performed off of the A10-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 18 portion of the Property so Transferred that are a condition precedent to the successor Property Owner's right to develop the portion of the Property so Transferred. Notwithstanding any Transfer, the transferring Property Owner shall continue to be jointly and severally liable to City, together with the successor Property Owner, to perform all of the transferred obligations set forth in or arising under this Agreement unless the transferring Property Owner is given a release in writing by City, which release shall be only with respect to the portion of the Property so Transferred in the event of a partial Transfer.

Mortgagee Rights. 12.1 Encumbrances on Property. The Parties agree that this Agreement shall not prevent or limit Property Owner in any manner from encumbering the Property, any part of the Property, or any improvements on the Property with any Mortgage securing financing with respect to the construction, development, use, or operation of the Project. 12.2 Mortgagee Protection. This Agreement shall be superior and senior to the lien of any Mortgage. Nevertheless, no breach of this Agreement shall defeat, render invalid, diminish, or impair the lien of any Mortgage made in good faith and for value. Any acquisition or acceptance of title or any right or interest in the Property or part of the Property by a Mortgagee (whether due to foreclosure, trustee's sale, deed in lieu of foreclosure, lease termination, or otherwise) shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any Mortgagee who takes title to the Property or any part of the Property shall be entitled to the benefits arising under this Agreement. 12.3 Mortgagee Not Obligated. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 12.3, a Mortgagee will not have any obligation or duty under the terms of this Agreement to perform the obligations of Property Owner or other affirmative covenants of Property Owner, or to guarantee this performance A10-00773 v401.0&11 FINAL 19 except that: (i) the Mortgagee shall have no right to develop the Project under the Development Regulations without fully complying with the terms of this Agreement; and (ii) to the extent that any covenant to be performed by Property Owner is a condition to the performance of a covenant by City, that performance shall continue to be a condition precedent to City's performance. 12.4 Notice of Default to Mortgagee; Right of Mortgagee to Cure Each Mortgagee shall, upon written request to City, be entitled to receive written notice from City of. (i) the results of the periodic review of compliance specified in Article 7 of this Agreement, and (ii) any default by Property Owner of its obligations set forth in this Agreement. Each Mortgagee shall have a further right, but not an obligation, to cure the Default within ten (10) days after receiving a Notice of Default with respect to a monetary Default and within thirty (30) days after receiving a Notice of Default with respect to a non -monetary Default. If the Mortgagee can only remedy or cur a non -monetary Default by obtaining possession of the Property, then the Mortgagee shall have the right to seek to obtain possession with diligence and continuity through a receiver or otherwise, and to remedy or cure the non - monetary Default within thirty (30) days after obtaining possession and, except in case of emergency or to protect the public health or safety, City may not exercise any of its judicial remedies set forth in this Agreement to terminate or substantially alter the rights of the Mortgagee until expiration of the thirty (30)-day period. In the case of a non -monetary Default that cannot with diligence be remedied or cured within thirty (30) days, the Mortgagee shall have additional time as is reasonably necessary to remedy or cure the Default, provided the Mortgagee promptly commences to cure the non -monetary Default within thirty (30) days and diligently prosecutes the cure to completion.

The only relationship between the Parties is that of a government entity regulating the Development of private property by the owner or user of the Property.

The Party requested to furnish an estoppel certificate shall execute and return the certificate within thirty (30) days following receipt. Requests for the City to furnish an estoppel certificate shall include reimbursement for all administrative costs incurred by the City including reasonable attorneys fees incurred by the City in furnishing an estoppels certificate. 13.5 Rules of Construction. The singular includes the plural; the masculine and neuter include the feminine; "shall" is mandatory; and "may" is permissive. 13.6 Time Is of the Essence. Time is of the essence regarding each provision of this Agreement as to which time is an element. 13.7 Waiver. The failure by a Party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the other Party, and failure by a Party to exercise its rights upon a Default by the other Party, shall not constitute a waiver of that Parry's right to demand strict compliance by the other Party in the future. 13.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be identical and may be introduced in evidence or used for any other purpose without any other counterpart, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same agreement.

The Parties intend that each and every obligation of the Parties is interdependent and interrelated with the other, and if any provision of this Agreement or the application of the provision to any Party or circumstances shall be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, it is the intention of the Parties that the remainder of this Agreement or the application of the provision to persons or circumstances shall be rendered invalid or unenforceable. The Parties intend that neither Party shall receive any of the benefits of the Agreement without the full performance by such Party of all of its obligations provided for under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties intend that Property Owner shall not receive any of the benefits of this Agreement if any of Property Owner's obligations are rendered void or unenforceable as the result of any third party litigation, and City shall be free to exercise its legislative discretion to amend or repeal the Development Regulations applicable to the Property and Property Owner shall cooperate as required, despite this Agreement, should third party litigation result in the nonperformance of Property Owner's obligations under this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 13.10 shall apply regardless of whether the Effective Date occurs and after the Termination Date. 13.11 Construction. This Agreement has been drafted after negotiation and revision. Both City and Property Owner are sophisticated parties who were represented by independent counsel throughout the negotiations or City and Property Owner had the opportunity to be so represented and voluntarily chose to not be so represented. City and Property Owner each agree and acknowledge that the terms of this Agreement are fair and reasonable, taking into account their respective purposes, terms, and conditions.

The burdens of this Agreement shall be binding upon, and the benefits of this Agreement shall inure to, all successors in interest to the Parties to this Agreement. All provisions of this Agreement shall be enforceable as equitable servitudes and constitute covenants running with the land. Each covenant to do or refrain from doing some act hereunder with regard to Development of the Property: (i) is for the benefit of and is a burden upon every portion of the Property; (ii) runs with the Property and each portion thereof; and (iii) is binding upon each Party and each successor in interest during its ownership of the Property or any portion thereof. Every person or entity who now or later owns or acquires any right, title, or interest in any part of the Project or the Property is and shall be conclusively deemed to have consented and agreed to every provision of this Agreement. This Section 13.12 applies regardless of whether the instrument by A10-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 23 18-43 which such person or entity acquires the interest refers to or acknowledges this Agreement and regardless of whether such person or entity has expressly entered into an assignment and assumption agreement as provided for in Section 11. 13.13 No Third Party Beneficiaries.

This Agreement does not involve any third party beneficiaries, and it is not intended and shall not be construed to benefit or be enforceable by any other person or entity. 13.14 Applicable Law and Venue.

The Parties waive all provisions of law providing for the removal or change of venue to any other court. 13.15 Section Headings.

Adopt Resolution No. PC2022-008 recommending approval to the City Council of First Amendment to Development Agreement (DA2022-001), to extend the term of the Development Agreement by one year from September 23, 2022, to September 23, 2023 (Attachment No. PC 1).

Specifically, the amendment would allow ministerial subdivisions and the construction of up to two units for lots that are designated for single-family use. Recommended Action: 1. Conduct a public hearing; 2. Find this amendment statutorily exempt from environmental review and not considered a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Government Code Sections 65852.21(j) and 66411.7(n) and further find that this amendment is categorically exempt from CEQA under Section 15303 and 15315 as set forth in Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3 of the California Code of Regulations which categorically exempts the construction of a second dwelling unit in a residential zone and the division of property in urbanized areas zoned for residential use into four or fewer parcels; and 3. Adopt Resolution No. PC2022-012 (Attachment No. PC 1) recommending the City Council approve Code Amendment No. CA2021-007 implementing new state law requirements relating to SB 9 housing developments and urban lot splits. Senior Planner Zdeba and Principal Planner Murillo reviewed the background of Senate Bill (SB) 9, including SB 9 housing development projects and SB 9 urban lot split scenarios without and with an ordinance, proposed SB 9 housing development standards, proposed urban lot split development standards, additional requirements, and next steps. In response to Commissioner Klaustermeier's query, Senior Planner Zdeba noted the parking requirements per State law and displayed a draft exhibit of high -quality transit areas to discuss parking exemptions and requirements. He also clarified the use of easements to access parking. In response to Commissioner Koetting's questions, Senior Planner Zdeba confirmed that Homeowner Associations (HOAs) can enforce private Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) to restrict SB 9 and not ADUs due to State law, off -site improvements, such as sidewalk construction, cannot be imposed through the City's approval of SB 9 projects, provisions of public services relate to utility easements, tailored objective design standards to better guide the regulations must be clearly written, and owner occupancy requirements for a three-year period. In response to Vice Chair Kleiman's queries, Senior Planner Zdeba relayed that he did not know an exact number of affected parcels in the Coastal Zone, but that approximately 17,500 parcels are eligible for SB 9 provisions. Assistant City Attorney Summerhill added that the Turner Institute prepared a study that estimates 10 percent of eligible parcels will actually take advantage of SB 9. Senior Planner Zdeba noted that January 1, 2022, was the effective date for SB 9 and no applications have been submitted to the City to date. He noted an affidavit signing requirement by the State to satisfy the owner -occupied requirement and clarified the intent of the affordability requirement for only one SB 9 unit noting that a higher inclusionary requirement would serve as an impediment to SB 9 development. He added that land values and development costs are high in Newport Beach, so the City views the affordability requirement as a way to produce affordable housing units. Commissioners reported no ex parte communication. In response to Commissioner Koetting's questions regarding outreach, Senior Planner Zdeba disclosed informal conversations with home builders or real estate agencies and two study sessions that received no comments. 3 of 5 18-55 VIII IX. Planning Commission Special Meeting Minutes May 26, 2022 Community Development Director Jurjis noted the direction to staff by the City Council to proceed in this manner and that tonight's meeting was publicly noticed. Chair Lowrey opened the public hearing. Jim Mosher questioned SB 9 for Coastal Zone parcels while awaiting the Local Coastal Program (LCP) amendment approval, expressed the opinion that the code amendment parts copied from SB 9 written poorly and subject to lawsuits, and questioned the objective meaning in the amendment for "within one block" in the conditions where the City cannot impose parking requirements. Chair Lowrey closed the public hearing. In response to Mr. Mosher's questions, Community Development Director Jurjis confirmed that the City's LCP does not allow for SB 9 units in the Coastal Zone and the ordinance will be applicable for only outside the Coastal Zone until the LCP amendment is complete. Motion made by Secretary Ellmore and seconded by Commissioner Klaustermeier to support Item No. 3 Senate Bill 9 Implementation Code Amendment (PA2021-277).

PC2022-008 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL OF A FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (DA2022-001) FOR THE TENNIS CLUB SITE WITHIN THE NEWPORT BEACH COUNTRY CLUB PLANNED COMMUNITY LOCATED AT 1602 EAST COAST HIGHWAY (PA2022-038) THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH HEREBY FINDS AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. STATEMENT OF FACTS. On March 27, 2012, the City Council of the City of Newport Beach ("City") adopted Ordinance No. 2012-3 approving Development Agreement No. DA2008-001 ("Agreement") between the City and Golf Realty Fund ("GRF") for the Tennis Club site within the Newport Beach Country Club Planned Community. The Agreement was executed and recorded, as document number 2014000036369 on January 29, 2014. The effective date of the Agreement is September 27, 2012 with a term of ten years. 2. GRF has requested a first amendment to extend the term of the Agreement one additional year, from September 27, 2022 to September 27, 2023 ("First Amendment"), in order to develop the Tennis Club site consistent with the Newport Beach Country Club Planned Community (PC-47). The approved entitlements for the Tennis Club site, including development regulations and required conditions of approval as provided in the Agreement, remain unchanged by this First Amendment. 3. Section 15.45.040 (Development Agreements; Contents) of the Newport Beach Municipal Code ("NBMC") requires development agreements include, among other provisions, the term, permitted uses, density and intensity of development, and maximum height and size of proposed buildings. The Agreement meets the requirements of Section 15.45.040 of the NBMC as it includes the permitted uses, density and intensity of development, and maximum height and size of the proposed buildings. None of those provisions are changed by this First Amendment. 4. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on May 12, 2022 which was continued to May 26, 2022, in the City Council Chambers, located at 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach, California, at which time the Planning Commission considered the First Amendment. A notice of time, place and purpose of the hearing was given in accordance with California Government Code Section 54950 et seq. ("Ralph M. Brown Act"), California Government Code Section 65867 and Section 15.45.050 (Public Hearing - Notice) of the NBMC. Evidence, both written and oral, was presented to, and considered by, the Planning Commission at this hearing. 18-59 Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2022-008 Paae 2 of 4 SECTION 2. CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT DETERMINATION. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") set forth in the California Public Resources Code Section 21000, et. seq. and its implementing State regulations set forth in the California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3 ("CEQA Guidelines"): On March 27, 2012, the Newport Beach City Council approved Mitigated Negative Declaration No. ND2010-008 (SCH 2O10091052) and an Errata to Mitigated Negative Declaration No. ND2010-008 (together referred as "MND") that addressed the potential environmental effects associated with the Tennis Club site within the Newport Beach Country Club Planned Community ("Project"). 2. All environmental concerns for the Project are addressed in the previously approved MND. The First Amendment does not change the Project but rather only extends the Term of the Agreement by one year. The First Amendment does not amend development standards, development requirements, or required mitigation measures identified in the MND. The Planning Commission finds that judicial challenges to the City's CEQA determinations and approvals of land use projects are costly and time consuming. In addition, project opponents often seek an award of attorneys' fees in such challenges. As project applicants are the primary beneficiaries of such approvals, it is appropriate that such applicants should bear the expense of defending against any such judicial challenge, and bear the responsibility for any costs, attorneys' fees, and damages which may be awarded to a successful challenger. SECTION 3. FINDINGS. 1. The City Council previously found the Agreement consistent with Land Use Element of the General Plan which designates the Tennis Club site as Mixed Use Horizontal 3/Park and Recreation (MU-H3/PR). The MU-H3/PR designation on the Tennis Club site provides for the horizontal intermixing of regional commercial office, hotel, single-family and multi -family residential and ancillary commercial uses. The PR designation allows active public or private recreational uses including parks (both active and passive), golf courses, marina support facilities, aquatic facilities, tennis clubs and courts, private recreation, and similar facilities. 2. The City Council previously found the Agreement consistent with Section 15.45.040 (Development Agreement Content) of the NBMC as it included all the necessary components including the term, permitted uses, density and intensity of development, and maximum height and size of proposed buildings to be developed on the Tennis Club site, when it adopted Ordinance No. 2012-3 in 2012. With the exception of extending the term, all of the other necessary components articulated above, remain unchanged by this First Amendment. 3. The Planning Commission finds extension of the Agreement for one additional year is consistent with provisions of California Government Code Sections 65864 to 65869.5 and Chapter 15.45 (Development Agreements) of the NBMC that authorize binding 18-60 Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2022-008 Paae 3 of 4 agreements that: (i) encourage investment in, and commitment to, comprehensive planning and public facilities financing; (ii) strengthen the public planning process and encourage private implementation of the local general plan; (iii) provide certainty in the approval of projects in order to avoid waste of time and resources; and (iv) reduce the economic costs of development by providing assurance to the property owners that they may proceed with projects consistent with existing policies, rules, and regulations. With the exception of extending the term, all of the other necessary components articulated above, remain unchanged by this First Amendment. SECTION 4. DECISION. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: The Planning Commission of the City of Newport Beach, California hereby recommends to the City Council: All significant environmental concerns for the Project have been addressed in Negative Declaration No. ND2010-008 and an Errata to Mitigated Negative Declaration No. ND2010-008 and no new or additional impacts will result from the First Amendment. The First Amendment does not change the Project but rather only extends the term of the Agreement by one year. The First Amendment does not amend any development standards, development requirements, or required mitigation measures identified in Negative Declaration No. ND2010-008 and an Errata to Mitigated Negative Declaration No. ND2010-008. 2. Adopt the First Amendment to Development Agreement No. DA2008-001 between the City of Newport Beach and GRF to extend the term of the Agreement by one year, from September 27, 2022 to September 27, 2023. Except as modified by the First Amendment, the Planning Commission recommends the amended Agreement remain in full force and effect. 18-61 Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2022-008 Page 4 of 4 PASSED, APPROVED, AND ADOPTED THIS 26th DAY OF MAY, 2022.

Development of Project. 4.1 Applicable Regulations; Property Owner's Vested Rights and City's Reservation of Discretion With Respect to Subsequent Development Approvals Other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement, during the Term of this Agreement, (i) Property Owner shall have the vested right to Develop the Project on and with respect to the Property in accordance with the terms of the Development Regulations and this Agreement and (ii) City shall not prohibit or prevent development of the Property on grounds inconsistent with the Development Regulations or this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein is intended to limit or restrict City's discretion with respect to (i) review and approval requirements contained in the Development Regulations, (ii) exercise of any discretionary authority City retains under the Development Regulations, (iii) the approval, conditional approval, or denial of any Subsequent Development Approvals applied for by Property Owner, or that are required, for Development of the Project as of the Agreement Date provided that all such actions are consistent with the Development Regulations, or (iv) any environmental approvals that may be required under CEQA or any other federal or state law or regulation in conjunction with any Subsequent Development Approvals that may be required for the Project, and in this regard, as to future actions referred to in clauses (i)-(iv) of this sentence, City reserves its full discretion to the same extent City would have such discretion in the absence of this Agreement. In addition, it is understood and agreed that nothing in this Agreement is intended to vest Property Owner's rights with respect to any laws, regulations, rules, or official policies of any other governmental agency or public utility company with jurisdiction over the Property or the Project; or any applicable federal or state laws, regulations, rules, or official policies that may be inconsistent with this Agreement and that override or supersede the provisions set forth in this Agreement, and regardless of whether such overriding or superseding laws, regulations, rules, or A10-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 9 official policies are adopted or applied to the Property or the Project prior or subsequent to the Agreement Date. Property Owner has expended and will continue to expend substantial amounts of time and money in the planning and entitlement process to permit Development of the Project in the future.

Property Owner may apply to City for permits or approvals necessary to modify or amend the Development specified in the Development Regulations, provided that unless this Agreement also is amended, the request does not propose an increase in the maximum density, intensity, height, or size of proposed structures, or a change in use that generates more peak hour traffic or more daily traffic. In addition, Property Owner may apply to City for approval of minor amendments to existing tentative tract maps, tentative parcel maps, or associated conditions of approval, consistent with City of Newport Beach Municipal Code section 19.12.090. This Agreement does not constitute a promise or commitment by City to approve any such permit or approval, or to approve the same with or without any particular requirements or conditions, and City's discretion with respect to such matters shall be the same as it would be in the absence of this Agreement. 4.2 No Conflicting Enactments. Except to the extent City reserves its discretion as expressly set forth in this Agreement, during the Term of this Agreement City shall not apply to the Project or the Property any ordinance, policy, rule, regulation, or other measure relating to Development of the Project that is enacted or becomes effective after the Agreement Date to the extent it conflicts with this Agreement. This Section 4.2 shall not restrict City's ability to enact an ordinance, policy, rule, regulation, or other measure applicable to the Project pursuant to California Government Code Section 65866 consistent with the procedures specified in Section 4.3 of this Agreement. In Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo (1984) 37 Ca1.3d 465, the California Supreme Court held that a construction company was not exempt from a city's growth control ordinance even though the city and construction company had entered into a consent judgment (tantamount to a contract under California law) establishing the company's vested rights to develop its property consistent with the zoning. The California Supreme Court reached this result because the consent judgment failed to address the timing of development. The Parties intend to avoid the result of the Pardee case by acknowledging and providing in this Agreement that Property Owner shall have the vested right to Develop the Project on and with respect to the Property at the rate, timing, and sequencing that Property Owner deems appropriate within the exercise of Property Owner's sole subjective business judgment, provided that such Development occurs in accordance with this Agreement and the Development Regulations, notwithstanding adoption by City's electorate of an initiative to the contrary after the Agreement Date. No City moratorium or other similar limitation relating to the rate, timing, or sequencing of the Development of all or any part of the Project and whether enacted by initiative or another method, affecting subdivision maps, building permits, occupancy certificates, or other entitlement to use, shall apply to the Project to the extent such moratorium or other similar limitation restricts Property Owner's A10-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 10 i i� vested rights in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the express provisions of this Agreement. 4.3 Reservations of Authority. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, the laws, rules, regulations, and official policies set forth in this Section 4.3 shall apply to and govern the Development of the Project on and with respect to the Property. 4.3.1 Procedural Regulations. Procedural regulations relating to hearing bodies, petitions, applications, notices, findings, records, hearings, reports, recommendations, appeals, and any other matter of procedure shall apply to the Property, provided that such procedural regulations are adopted and applied City-wide or to all other properties similarly situated in City. 4.3.2 Processing and Permit Fees. City shall have the right to charge and Property Owner shall be required to pay all applicable processing and permit fees to cover the reasonable cost to City of processing and reviewing applications and plans for any required Subsequent Development Approvals, building permits, excavation and grading permits, encroachment permits, and the like, for performing necessary studies and reports in connection therewith, inspecting the work constructed or installed by or on behalf of Property Owner, and monitoring compliance with any requirements applicable to Development of the Project, all at the rates in effect at the time fees are due. 4.3.3 Consistent Future Citv Regulations. City ordinances, resolutions, regulations, and official policies governing Development which do not conflict with the Development Regulations, or with respect to such regulations that do conflict, where Property Owner has consented in writing to the regulations, shall apply to the Property. 4.3.4 Development Exactions Applicable to Property. During the Term of this Agreement, Property Owner shall be required to satisfy and pay all Development Exactions at the time performance or payment is due to the same extent and in the same amount(s) that would apply to Property Owner and the Project in the absence of this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent the scope and extent of a particular Development Exaction (excluding any development impact fee) for the Project has been established and fixed by City in the conditions of approval for any of the Development Regulations approved on or before the Agreement Date, City shall not alter, increase, or modify said Development Exaction in a manner that is inconsistent with such Development Regulations without Property Owner's prior written consent or as may be otherwise required pursuant to overriding federal or state laws or regulations (Section 4.3.5 hereinbelow). In addition, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be deemed to vest Property Owner against the obligation to pay any of the following (which are not included within the definition of "Development Exactions") in the full amount that would apply in the absence of this Agreement: (i) City's normal fees for processing, environmental assessment and review, tentative tract and parcel map review, plan checking, site review and approval, administrative review, building permit, grading permit, inspection, and similar fees imposed to recover City's costs associated with processing, reviewing, and inspecting project applications, plans, and specifications; (ii) fees and charges levied by any other public agency, utility, district, or joint powers authority, regardless of whether City collects those fees and charges; or (iii) community facility district special taxes or special district assessments or similar A10-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 11 assessments, business license fees, bonds or other security required for public improvements, transient occupancy taxes, sales taxes, property taxes, sewer lateral connection fees, water service connection fees, new water meter fees, and the Property Development Tax payable under Chapter 3.12 of City's Municipal Code. 4.3.5 Overriding Federal and State Laws and Regulations. Federal and state laws and regulations that override Property Owner's vested rights set forth in this Agreement shall apply to the Property, together with any City ordinances, resolutions, regulations, and official policies that are necessary to enable City to comply with the provisions of any such overriding federal or state laws and regulations, provided that (i) Property Owner does not waive its right to challenge or contest the validity of any such purportedly overriding federal, state, or City law or regulation; and (ii) upon the discovery of any such overriding federal, state, or City law or regulation that prevents or precludes compliance with any provision of this Agreement, City or Property Owner shall provide to the other Party a written notice identifying the federal, state, or City law or regulation, together with a copy of the law or regulation and a brief written statement of the conflict(s) between that law or regulation and the provisions of this Agreement. Promptly thereafter City and Property Owner shall meet and confer in good faith in a reasonable attempt to determine whether a modification or suspension of this Agreement, in whole or in part, is necessary to comply with such overriding federal, state, or City law or regulation. In such negotiations, City and Property Owner agree to preserve the terms of this Agreement and the rights of Property Owner as derived from this Agreement to the maximum feasible extent while resolving the conflict. City agrees to cooperate with Property Owner at no cost to City in resolving the conflict in a manner which minimizes any financial impact of the conflict upon Property Owner. City also agrees to process in a prompt manner Property Owner's proposed changes to this Agreement, the Project and any of the Development Regulations as may be necessary to comply with such overriding federal, state, or City law or regulation; provided, however, that the approval of such changes by City shall be subject to the discretion of City, consistent with this Agreement. 4.3.6 Public Health and Safety. Any City ordinance, resolution, rule, regulation, program, or official policy that is necessary to protect persons on the Property or in the immediate vicinity from conditions dangerous to their health or safety, as reasonably determined by City, shall apply to the Property, even though the application of the ordinance, resolution, rule regulation, program, or official policy would result in the impairment of Property Owner's vested rights under this Agreement. 4.3.7 Uniform Building Standards. Existing and future building and building - related standards set forth in the uniform codes adopted and amended by City from time to time, including building, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, housing, swimming pool, and fire codes, and any modifications and amendments thereof shall all apply to the Project and the Property to the same extent that the same would apply in the absence of this Agreement. 4.3.8 Public Works Improvements. To the extent Property Owner constructs or installs any public improvements, works, or facilities, the City standards in effect for such public improvements, works, or facilities at the time of City's issuance of a permit, license, or other authorization for construction or installation of same shall apply. A10-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 12 i i • 4.3.9 No Guarantee or Reservation of Utility Cqpacity. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be interpreted to require City to guarantee or reserve to or for the benefit of Property Owner or the Property any utility capacity, service, or facilities that may be needed to serve the Project, whether domestic or reclaimed water service, sanitary sewer transmission or wastewater treatment capacity, downstream drainage capacity, or otherwise, and City shall have the right to limit or restrict Development of the Project if and to the extent that City reasonably determines that inadequate utility capacity exists to adequately serve the Project at the time Development is scheduled to commence. 4.4 Tentative Subdivision Maps. City agrees that Property Owner may file and process new and existing vesting tentative maps for the Property consistent with California Government Code sections 66498.1-66498.9 and City of Newport Beach Municipal Code chapter 19.20. Pursuant to the applicable provision of the California Subdivision Map Act (California Government Code section 66452.6(a)), the life of any tentative subdivision map approved for the Property, whether designated a "vesting tentative map" or otherwise, shall be extended for the Term of this Agreement. 5. Amendment or Cancellation of Agreement. Other than modifications of this Agreement under Section 8.3 of this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended or canceled in whole or in part only by mutual written and executed consent of the Parties in compliance with California Government Code section 65868 and City of Newport Beach Municipal Code section 15.45.060 or by unilateral termination by City in the event of an uncured default of Property Owner. 6. Enforcement. Unless this Agreement is amended, canceled, modified, or suspended as authorized herein or pursuant to California Government Code section 65869.5, this Agreement shall be enforceable by either Party despite any change in any applicable general or specific plan, zoning, subdivision, or building regulation or other applicable ordinance or regulation adopted by City (including by City's electorate) that purports to apply to any or all of the Property. 7. Annual Review of Property Owner's Compliance With Agreement 7.1 General. City shall review this Agreement once during every twelve (12) month period following the Effective Date for compliance with the terms of this Agreement as provided in Government Code Section 65865.1. Property Owner (including any successor to the Property Owner executing this Agreement on or before the Agreement Date) shall pay City a reasonable fee in an amount City may reasonably establish from time to time to cover the actual and necessary costs for the annual review. City's failure to timely provide or conduct an annual review shall not constitute a Default hereunder by City. 7.2 Property Owner Obligation to Demonstrate Good Faith Compliance A10-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 13 During each annual review by City, Property Owner is required to demonstrate good faith compliance with the terms of the Agreement. Property Owner agrees to furnish such evidence of good faith compliance as City, in the reasonable exercise of its discretion, may require, thirty (30) days prior to each anniversary of the Effective Date during the Term. 7.3 Procedure. The City Council of City shall conduct a duly noticed hearing and shall determine, on the basis of substantial evidence, whether or not Property Owner has, for the period under review, complied with the terms of this Agreement. If the City Council finds that Property Owner has so complied, the annual review shall be concluded. If the City Council finds, on the basis of substantial evidence, that Property Owner has not so complied, written notice shall be sent to Property Owner by first class mail of the City Council's finding of non-compliance, and Property Owner shall be given at least ten (10) days to cure any noncompliance that relates to the payment of money and thirty (30) days to cure any other type of noncompliance. If a cure not relating to the payment of money cannot be completed within thirty (30) days for reasons which are beyond the control of Property Owner, Property Owner must commence the cure within such thirty (30) days and diligently pursue such cure to completion. If Property Owner fails to cure such noncompliance within the time(s) set forth above, such failure shall be considered to be a Default and City shall be entitled to exercise the remedies set forth in Article 8 below. 7.4 Annual Review a Non -Exclusive Means for Determining and Requiring Cure of Property Owner's Default. The annual review procedures set forth in this Article 7 shall not be the exclusive means for City to identify a Default by Property Owner or limit City's rights or remedies for any such Default. 8. Events of Default. 8.1 General Provisions. In the event of any material default, breach, or violation of the terms of this Agreement ("Default"), the Party alleging a Default shall have the right to deliver a written notice (each, a "Notice of Default") to the defaulting Party. The Notice of Default shall specify the nature of the alleged Default and a reasonable manner and sufficient period of time (ten (10) days if the Default relates to the failure to timely make a monetary payment due hereunder and not less than thirty (30) days in the event of non -monetary Defaults) in which the Default must be cured (the "Cure Period"). During the Cure Period, the Party charged shall not be considered in Default for the purposes of termination of this Agreement or institution of legal proceedings. If the alleged Default is cured within the Cure Period, then the Default thereafter shall be deemed not to exist. If a non -monetary Default cannot be cured during the Cure Period with the exercise of commercially reasonable diligence, the defaulting Party must promptly commence to cure as quickly as possible, and in no event later than thirty (30) days after it receives the Notice of Default, and thereafter diligently pursue said cure to completion. 8.2 Default by Property Owner. A10-00773 v401.06,11 FINAL 14 i i i If Property Owner is alleged to have committed a non -monetary Default and it disputes the claimed Default, it may make a written request for an appeal hearing before the City Council within ten (10) days of receiving the Notice of Default, and a public hearing shall be scheduled at the next available City Council meeting to consider Property Owner's appeal of the Notice of Default. Failure to appeal a Notice of Default to the City Council within the ten (10) day period shall waive any right to a hearing on the claimed Default. If Property Owner's appeal of the Notice of Default is timely and in good faith but after a public hearing of Property Owner's appeal the City Council concludes that Property Owner is in Default as alleged in the Notice of Default, the accrual date for commencement of the thirty (30) day Cure Period provided in Section 8.1 shall be extended until the City Council's denial of Property Owner's appeal is communicated to Property Owner. 8.3 Cites Option to Terminate Agreement In the event of an alleged Property Owner Default, City may not terminate this Agreement without first delivering a written Notice of Default and providing Property Owner with the opportunity to cure the Default within the Cure Period, as provided in Section 8.1, and complying with Section 8.2 if Property Owner timely appeals any Notice of Default with respect to a non -monetary Default. A termination of this Agreement by City shall be valid only if good cause exists and is supported by evidence presented to the City Council at or in connection with a duly noticed public hearing to establish the existence of a Default. The validity of any termination may be judicially challenged by Property Owner. Any such judicial challenge must be brought within thirty (30) days of service on Property Owner, by first class mail, postage prepaid, of written notice of termination by City or a written notice of City's determination of an appeal of the Notice of Default as provided in Section 8.2. It is the intention of the Parties that, while the City Council may declare a default and initiate termination of this Agreement on the basis of substantial evidence in the administrative record, if the declaration of default is contested in court, the court will review the default claim de novo and base its decision on whether the preponderance of evidence supports the City Council's finding of breach. 8.4 Default by City. If Property Owner alleges a City Default and alleges that the City has not cured the Default within the Cure Period, Property Owner may pursue any equitable remedy available to it under this Agreement, including, without limitation, an action for a writ of mandamus, injunctive relief, or specific performance of City's obligations set forth in this Agreement. Upon a City Default, any resulting delays in Property Owner's performance hereunder shall neither be a Property Owner Default nor constitute grounds for termination or cancellation of this Agreement by City and shall, at Property Owner's option (and provided Property Owner delivers written notice to City within thirty (30) days of the commencement of the alleged City Default), extend the Term for a period equal to the length of the delay. 8.5 Waiver. Failure or delay by either Party in delivering a Notice of Default shall not waive that Party's right to deliver a future Notice of Default of the same or any other Default. 8.6 Specific Performance Remedy. A10-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 15 i i � Due to the size, nature, and scope of the Project, it will not be practical or possible to restore the Property to its pre-existing condition once implementation of this Agreement has begun. After such implementation, both Property Owner and City may be foreclosed from other choices they may have had to plan for the development of the Property, to utilize the Property or provide for other benefits and alternatives. Property Owner and City have invested significant time and resources and performed extensive planning and processing of the Project in agreeing to the terms of this Agreement and will be investing even more significant time and resources in implementing the Project in reliance upon the terms of this Agreement. It is not possible to determine the sum of money which would adequately compensate Property Owner or City for such efforts. For the above reasons, City and Property Owner agree that damages would not be an adequate remedy if either City or Property Owner fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, specific performance of this Agreement is necessary to compensate Property Owner if City fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement or to compensate City if Property Owner falls to carry out its obligations under this Agreement. 8.7 Monetary Damages. The Parties agree that monetary damages shall not be an available remedy for either Party for a Default hereunder by the other Party; provided, however, that (i) nothing in this Section 8.7 is intended or shall be interpreted to limit or restrict City's right to recover the Public Benefit Fees due from Property Owner as set forth herein; and (ii) nothing in this Section 8.7 is intended or shall be interpreted to limit or restrict Property Owner's indemnity obligations set forth in Article 10 or the right of the prevailing Party in any Action to recover its litigation expenses, as set forth in Section 8.10. 8.8 Additional City Remedy for Property Owner's Default In the event of any Default by Property Owner, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to City, whether legal or equitable, City shall be entitled to receive and retain any Development Exactions applicable to the Project or the Property, including any fees, grants, dedications, or improvements to public property which it may have received prior to Property Owner's Default without recourse from Property Owner or its successors or assigns. 8.9 No Personal Liability of City Officials Employees or Agents. No City official, employee, or agent shall have any personal liability hereunder for a Default by City of any of its obligations set forth in this Agreement. 8.10 Recovery of Legal Expenses by Prevailing Partin Any Action In any judicial proceeding, arbitration, or mediation (collectively, an "Action") between the Parties that seeks to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or arises out of this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall recover all of its actual and reasonable costs and expenses, regardless of whether they would be recoverable under California Code of Civil Procedure section 1033.5 or California Civil Code section 1717 in the absence of this Agreement. These costs and expenses include expert witness fees, attorneys' fees, and costs of investigation and preparation before initiation of the Action. The right to recover these costs and expenses shall accrue upon initiation of the Action, regardless of whether the Action is prosecuted to a final judgment or decision. Al0-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 16 i •I 9. Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be deemed to be in Default where failure or delay in performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement is caused, through no fault of the Party whose performance is prevented or delayed, by floods, earthquakes, other acts of God, fires, wars, riots or similar hostilities, strikes or other labor difficulties, state or federal regulations, or court actions. Except as specified above, nonperformance shall not be excused because of the act or omission of a third person. In no event shall the occurrence of an event of force majeure operate to extend the Term of this Agreement. In addition, in no event shall the time for performance of a monetary obligation, including without limitation Property Owner's obligation to pay Public Benefit Fees, be extended pursuant to this Section. 10. Indemnity Obligations of Property Owner. 10.1 Indemnity Arising From Acts or Omissions of Property Owner. Property Owner shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City and City's officials, employees, agents, attorneys, and contractors (collectively, the "City's Affiliated Parties") from and against all suits, claims, liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, obligations, and expenses (including but not limited to attorneys' fees and costs) (collectively, a "Claim") that may arise, directly or indirectly, from the acts, omissions, or operations of Property Owner or Property Owner's agents, contractors, subcontractors, agents, or employees in the course of Development of the Project or any other activities of Property Owner relating to the Property or pursuant to this Agreement. City shall have the right to select and retain counsel to defend any Claim filed against City and/or any of City's Affiliated Parties, and Property Owner shall pay the reasonable cost for defense of any Claim. The indemnity provisions in this Section 10.1 shall commence on the Agreement Date, regardless of whether the Effective Date occurs, and shall survive the Termination Date. 10.2 Third Party Litigation. In addition to its indemnity obligations set forth in Section 10.1, Property Owner shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City and City's Affiliated Parties from and against any Claim against City or City's Affiliated Parties seeking to attack, set aside, void, or annul the approval of this Agreement, the Adopting Ordinance, any of the Development Regulations for the Project (including without limitation any actions taken pursuant to CEQA with respect thereto), any Subsequent Development Approval, or the approval of any permit granted pursuant to this Agreement. Said indemnity obligation shall include payment of attorney's fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. City shall promptly notify Property Owner of any such Claim and City shall cooperate with Property Owner in the defense of such Claim. If City fails to promptly notify Property Owner of such Claim, Property Owner shall not be responsible to indemnify, defend, and hold City harmless from such Claim until Property Owner is so notified and if City fails to cooperate in the defense of a Claim Property Owner shall not be responsible to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City during the period that City so fails to cooperate or for any losses attributable thereto. City shall be entitled to retain separate counsel to represent City against the Claim and the City's defense costs for its separate counsel shall be included in Property Owner's indemnity obligation, provided that such counsel shall reasonably cooperate with Property Owner in an effort to minimize the total litigation expenses incurred by Property A10-00773 0 01.06.11 FINAL 1 18-91 Owner. In the event either City or Property Owner recovers any attorney's fees, expert witness fees, costs, interest, or other amounts from the party or parties asserting the Claim, Property Owner shall be entitled to retain the same (provided it has fully performed its indemnity obligations hereunder). The indemnity provisions in this Section 10.2 shall commence on the Agreement Date, regardless of whether the Effective Date occurs, and shall survive the Termination Date. 10.3 EnvironmentalIndemnity. In addition to its indemnity obligations set forth in Section 10.1, from and after the Agreement Date Property Owner shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City and City's Affiliated Parties from and against any and all Claims for personal injury or death, property damage, economic loss, statutory penalties or fines, and damages of any kind or nature whatsoever, including without limitation attorney's fees, expert witness fees, and costs, based upon or arising from any of the following: (i) the actual or alleged presence of any Hazardous Substance on or under any of the Property in violation of any applicable Environmental Law; (ii) the actual or alleged migration of any Hazardous Substance from the Property through the soils or groundwater to a location or locations off of the Property; and (iii) the storage, handling, transport, or disposal of any Hazardous Substance on, to, or from the Property and any other area disturbed, graded, or developed by Property Owner in connection with Property Owner's Development of the Project. The foregoing indemnity obligations shall not apply to any Hazardous Substance placed or stored on a separate legal lot within the Property after the Lot Termination Date for said lot, as provided in Section 2.4 of this Agreement. The indemnity provisions in this Section 10.3 shall commence on the Agreement Date, regardless of whether the Effective Date occurs, and shall survive the Termination Date. 11. Assignment. Went. Property Owner shall have the right to sell, transfer, or assign (hereinafter, collectively, a "Transfer") Property Owner's fee interest in to the Property, in whole or in part, to any person, partnership, joint venture, firm, or corporation (which successor, as of the effective date of the Transfer, shall become the "Property Owner" under this Agreement) at any time from the Agreement Date until the Termination Date; provided, however, that no such Transfer shall violate the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Section 66410 et seq.) or City's local subdivision ordinance and any such Transfer shall include the assignment and assumption of Property Owner's rights, duties, and obligations set forth in or arising under this Agreement as to the Property or the portion thereof so Transferred and shall be made in strict compliance with the following conditions precedent: (i) no transfer or assignment of any of Property Owner's rights or interest under this Agreement shall be made unless made together with the Transfer of all or a part of the Property; and (ii) prior to the effective date of any proposed Transfer, Property Owner (as transferor) shall notify City, in writing, of such proposed Transfer and deliver to City a written assignment and assumption, executed in recordable form by the transferring and successor Property Owner and in a form subject to the reasonable approval of the City Attorney of City (or designee), pursuant to which the transferring Property Owner assigns to the successor Property Owner and the successor Property Owner assumes from the transferring Property Owner all of the rights and obligations of the transferring Property Owner with respect to the Property or portion thereof to be so Transferred, including in the case of a partial Transfer the obligation to perform such obligations that must be performed off of the Al0-00773 0 01.06.11 FINAL 18 18-92 portion of the Property so Transferred that are a condition precedent to the successor Property Owner's right to develop the portion of the Property so Transferred. Notwithstanding any Transfer, the transferring Property Owner shall continue to be jointly and severally liable to City, together with the successor Property Owner, to perform all of the transferred obligations set forth in or arising under this Agreement unless the transferring Property Owner is given a release in writing by City, which release shall be only with respect to the portion of the Property so Transferred in the event of a partial Transfer.

Mortgagee Rights. 12.1 Encumbrances on Property. The Parties agree that this Agreement shall not prevent or limit Property Owner in any manner from encumbering the Property, any part of the Property, or any improvements on the Property with any Mortgage securing financing with respect to the construction, development, use, or operation of the Project. 12.2 Mortgagee Protection. This Agreement shall be superior and senior to the lien of any Mortgage. Nevertheless, no breach of this Agreement shall defeat, render invalid, diminish, or impair the lien of any Mortgage made in good faith and for value. Any acquisition or acceptance of title or any right or interest in the Property or part of the Property by a Mortgagee (whether due to foreclosure, trustee's sale, deed in lieu of foreclosure, lease termination, or otherwise) shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any Mortgagee who takes title to the Property or any part of the Property shall be entitled to the benefits arising under this Agreement. 12.3 Mortgagee Not Obligated. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 12.3, a Mortgagee will not have any obligation or duty under the terms of this Agreement to perform the obligations of Property Owner or other affirmative covenants of Property Owner, or to guarantee this performance A10-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 19 18-93 except that: (i) the Mortgagee shall have no right to develop the Project under the Development Regulations without fully complying with the terms of this Agreement; and (ii) to the extent that any covenant to be performed by Property Owner is a condition to the performance of a covenant by City, that performance shall continue to be a condition precedent to City's performance. 12.4 Notice of Default to Mortga eg e_Ri t of Mortgagee to Cure Each Mortgagee shall, upon written request to City, be entitled to receive written notice from City of: (i) the results of the periodic review of compliance specified in Article 7 of this Agreement, and (ii) any default by Property Owner of its obligations set forth in this Agreement. Each Mortgagee shall have a further right, but not an obligation, to cure the Default within ten (10) days after receiving a Notice of Default with respect to a monetary Default and within thirty (30) days after receiving a Notice of Default with respect to a non -monetary Default. If the Mortgagee can only remedy or cur a non -monetary Default by obtaining possession of the Property, then the Mortgagee shall have the right to seek to obtain possession with diligence and continuity through a receiver or otherwise, and to remedy or cure the non - monetary Default within thirty (30) days after obtaining possession and, except in case of emergency or to protect the public health or safety, City may not exercise any of its judicial remedies set forth in this Agreement to terminate or substantially alter the rights of the Mortgagee until expiration of the thirty (30)-day period. In the case of a non -monetary Default that cannot with diligence be remedied or cured within thirty (30) days, the Mortgagee shall have additional time as is reasonably necessary to remedy or cure the Default, provided the Mortgagee promptly commences to cure the non -monetary Default within thirty (30) days and diligently prosecutes the cure to completion.

Neither Party will be acting as the agent of the other in any respect, and each Party will be an independent contracting entity with respect to the terms, covenants, and conditions set forth in this Agreement. This Agreement forms no partnership, joint venture, or other association of any kind. The only relationship between the Parties is that of a government entity regulating the Development of private property by the owner or user of the Property. A10-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 21 18-95 13.3 Cooperation. Each Party shall cooperate with and provide reasonable assistance to the other Party to the extent consistent with and necessary to implement this Agreement.

The Party requested to furnish an estoppel certificate shall execute and return the certificate within thirty (30) days following receipt. Requests for the City to furnish an estoppel certificate shall include reimbursement for all administrative costs incurred by the City including reasonable attorneys fees incurred by the City in furnishing an estoppels certificate. 13.5 Rules of Construction. The singular includes the plural; the masculine and neuter include the feminine; "shall" is mandatory; and "may" is permissive. 13.6 Time Is of the Essence. Time is of the essence regarding each provision of this Agreement as to which time is an element. 13.7 Waiver. The failure by a Party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the other Party, and failure by a Party to exercise its rights upon a Default by the other Party, shall not constitute a waiver of that Party's right to demand strict compliance by the other Party in the future. 13.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be identical and may be introduced in evidence or used for any other purpose without any other counterpart, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same agreement.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter addressed in this Agreement. 13.10 Severability. The Parties intend that each and every obligation of the Parties is interdependent and interrelated with the other, and if any provision of this Agreement or the application of the provision to any Party or circumstances shall be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, it is the intention of the Parties that the remainder of this Agreement or the application of the provision to persons or circumstances shall be rendered invalid or unenforceable. The Parties intend that neither Party shall receive any of the benefits of the Agreement without the full performance by such Party of all of its obligations provided for under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties intend that Property Owner shall not receive any of the benefits of this Agreement if any of Property Owner's obligations are rendered void or unenforceable as the result of any third party litigation, and City shall be free to exercise its legislative discretion to amend or repeal the Development Regulations applicable to the Property and Property Owner shall cooperate as required, despite this Agreement, should third party litigation result in the nonperformance of Property Owner's obligations under this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 13.10 shall apply regardless of whether the Effective Date occurs and after the Termination Date. 13.11 Construction. This Agreement has been drafted after negotiation and revision. Both City and Property Owner are sophisticated parties who were represented by independent counsel throughout the negotiations or City and Property Owner had the opportunity to be so represented and voluntarily chose to not be so represented. City and Property Owner each agree and acknowledge that the terms of this Agreement are fair and reasonable, taking into account their respective purposes, terms, and conditions. This Agreement shall therefore be construed as a whole consistent with its fair meaning and applicable principle or presumptions of contract construction or interpretation, if any, shall be used to construe the whole or any part of this Agreement in favor of or against either Party. 13.12 Successors and Assigns; Constructive Notice and Acceptance. The burdens of this Agreement shall be binding upon, and the benefits of this Agreement shall inure to, all successors in interest to the Parties to this Agreement. All provisions of this Agreement shall be enforceable as equitable servitudes and constitute covenants running with the land. Each covenant to do or refrain from doing some act hereunder with regard to Development of the Property: (i) is for the benefit of and is a burden upon every portion of the Property; (ii) runs with the Property and each portion thereof; and (iii) is binding upon each Party and each successor in interest during its ownership of the Property or any portion thereof. Every person or entity who now or later owns or acquires any right, title, or interest in any part of the Project or the Property is and shall be conclusively deemed to have consented and agreed to every provision of this Agreement. This Section 13.12 applies regardless of whether the instrument by Al0-00773 v4 01.06.11 FINAL 23 18-97 which such person or entity acquires the interest refers to or acknowledges this Agreement and regardless of whether such person or entity has expressly entered into an assignment and assumption agreement as provided for in Section 11. 13.13 No Third Party Beneficiaries. The only Parties to this Agreement are City and Property Owner. This Agreement does not involve any third party beneficiaries, and it is not intended and shall not be construed to benefit or be enforceable by any other person or entity. 13.14 Applicable Law and Venue.
