MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Shanna Farley, Principal Planner
DATE: 02/15/2023 Regular Meeting
SUBJECT: Consider an Ordinance Approving the Third Amendment to the
Development Agreement No. 2012-03 between the City of Moorpark
and Essex Moorpark Owner, L.P., and Making a Determination of
Exemption Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act in
Connection Therewithin, on the Application of Dan Johnson of Danco
Communities (on behalf of Essex Moorpark Owner, L.P.)
PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
On December 27, 2022, Dan Johnson (Applicant), for Danco Communities (on behalf of
Essex Moorpark Owner L.P.), submitted a request for a Third Amendment to the terms of
a Development Agreement (DA) between the City of Moorpark (City) and Essex Moorpark
Owner, L.P. (Essex), related to a previously approved 200-unit multi-family apartment
project located at 150 Casey Road, referred to now as Vendra Gardens. The Applicant
has requested a Third Amendment (Attachment 1, Exhibit A) to revise the dates outlined
in Section 2 of the Second Amendment to June 30, 2023, and to update the dates outlined
in the development schedule. This request is discussed further within the Discussion
section below.
“Vendra Gardens” Apartments Project Background and Past Amendment
On October 1, 2012, the Essex Property Trust, Inc. filed an application for Residential
Planned Development Permit No. 2012-02 (RPD) and DA No. 2012-03 for the
construction of a 200-unit apartment project. Earlier entitlements, for a similar project at
the site, had since expired. The earlier DA was not executed. On March 1, 2017, the
City Council adopted Resolution No. 2017-3582 approving the RPD. On March 15, 2017,
the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 443 approving the DA (Attachment 2).
On June 7, 2021, an application was filed by Essex Moorpark Owner L.P. to request the
First Amendment to the DA. On September 15, 2021, the City Council adopted Ordinance
269
Honorable City Council
02/15/2023 Regular Meeting
Page 2
No. 490 approving the First Amendment to the DA (Attachment 3). The request included:
changing the approved-residential project to be fully affordable; and finance certain City
development impact fees in the form of a 55-year residual loan.
On September 19, 2022, an application for a second amendment to the DA was filed by
Danco Communities, on behalf of Essex Moorpark Owner L.P. The request included:
change to the income-restricted rental rates used in the Affordable Housing Agreement,
change to the income-restricted unit mix, extension of the requirements of Section 2 of
the First Amended DA from October 29, 2022, to December 31, 2022, correction of the
description of the City Site to be conveyed to the City as part of the Project, addition of
an exhibit showing the form and content of the “Offsite Improvement Performance and
Payment Bond”, and modification of the timing and description of the onsite utility
undergrounding. On November 2, 2022, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 509
approving the Second Amendment to the DA and an Amended and Restated Affordable
Housing Agreement (Attachment 4).
On December 27, 2022, Danco Communities filed a subsequent application, on behalf of
Essex Moorpark Owner L.P., to request this Third Amendment to the DA. This request
includes an extension of the timeline outlined in Section 2 of the First DA to extend to no
later than June 30, 2023, described in more detail below (Attachment 1, Exhibit A).
On January 24, 2023, the Planning Commission considered the request for the Third
Amendment to the DA and conducted a public hearing to consider the request. The
Planning Commission received a presentation from staff and no public comments were
made. Following deliberation, the Planning Commission unanimously voted to adopt
Resolution No. PC-2023-689 (Attachment 5) recommending the City Council consider an
ordinance approving the requested amendments to the DA.
DISCUSSION
Danco Communities is in escrow to acquire the property and Project from Essex
Moorpark Owner L.P. The applicant has requested additional time to complete the
purchase. Various aspects of the purchase agreement and the preparation of the project
plans and revisions has required additional time on the part of the applicant to complete
the sales transaction. Although the applicant intends to complete the sale in the spring
of 2023, allowing a deadline of no later than June 30, 2023, provides additional time to
complete tasks outlined below. The proposed amendments include:
a) Change Section 2 of the Second Amendment to the DA to extend the December 31,
2022, date set forth therein to June 30, 2023, to complete the following:
(i) The sale of the Property to the Affordable Housing Owner (as defined below);
(ii) The assignment of the existing Affordable Housing Agreement to the
Affordable Housing Owner and the execution and recording of the Amended and
Restated Affordable Housing Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit "D" (hereinafter
referred to as the “Restated Affordable Housing Agreement");
270
Honorable City Council
02/15/2023 Regular Meeting
Page 3
(iii) The execution and delivery by Affordable Housing Owner of a promissory note
and deed of trust in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit "E" (hereinafter referred
to as the "City Loan Note" and the " City Loan Deed of Trust"), and the recording of
such City Loan Deed of Trust against the Property (excluding the City Site); and
(iv) The conveyance by Affordable Housing Owner to City of the City Site.
b) Delete Exhibit “C” to the Second Amendment and replace in its entirety with
Exhibit “B” to this Third Amendment to address the updated development schedule.
(Attachment 1).
The Applicant has also submitted building and grading plans for at-risk permit review to
receive initial comments and achieve various deadlines related to funding requirements.
The plans include minor changes to architecture and site plans of the Project to be
considered by the Community Development Director. Should more comprehensive
changes be proposed, such revisions may warrant future consideration by the Planning
Commission and City Council.
General Plan Consistency
The General Plan land use designation of the Project site is Very High Density Residential
(VH). The VH land use designation is intended for residential development characterized
by multi-family attached units, including apartment and condominium buildings. It is
intended that this category utilize innovative site planning, provide on-site recreational
amenities, and be near major community facilities, business centers and major arterials.
The land use designation of VH allows a maximum density of 15 dwelling units per acre;
however, through negotiation of the DA, the Project was approved at a gross density of
18.9 dwelling units per acre with the provision of affordable housing. The proposed
amendments to the DA would not change the density of the approved project.
The amendments to the Development Agreement for the approved Project are consistent
with the existing General Plan land use designation. In addition, the Project remains
consistent with the General Plan goals and policies identified below:
Housing Element Goals and Policies
• GOAL 2: Provide residential sites through land use, zoning and specific plan
designations to provide a range of housing opportunities.
Policy 2.2: Ensure residential sites have appropriate public services, facilities,
circulation, and other needed infrastructure to support development.
• GOAL 3: Expand and protect housing opportunities for lower income households
and special needs groups.
Policy 3.4: Require, in aggregate, 10% of new units to be affordable to lower
income households. Establishing priority for usage of in-lieu fee is as follows: 1st
priority – production of affordable housing; 2nd priority – subsidy of affordable
housing; 3rd priority – housing rehabilitation; 4th priority – housing assistance; and
271
Honorable City Council
02/15/2023 Regular Meeting
Page 4
5th priority – staffing costs.
Land Use Element Goals and Policies
• GOAL 3: Provide a variety of housing types and opportunities for all economic
segments of the community.
Policy 3.3: Where feasible, inclusionary zoning shall be used to require that a
percentage of new, private residential development be affordable to very low to
moderate income households.
• GOAL 5: Develop new residential housing which is compatible with the character
of existing individual neighborhoods and minimizes land use incompatibility.
Policy 5.1: Multiple-family dwellings shall be developed in close proximity to
employment opportunities, shopping areas, public parks, and transit lines, with
careful consideration of the proximity to and compatibility with single-family
neighborhoods.
In addition, to the Project’s conformance with the Goals and Policies of the General Plan,
the development will also provide the City with affordable housing units required by the
General Plan Housing Element and the State Department of Housing and Community
Development.
Zoning Consistency
The zoning designation of the subject property is Residential Planned Development
(RPD). The purpose of the RPD zone is to provide areas for communities to be developed
using modern land planning and unified design techniques. The amendments to the
Development Agreement and the approved Project are consistent with the RPD zone in
that the project would continue to provide housing as part of a planned development within
a residential area.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, the City Council adopted a Mitigated
Negative Declaration (MND) on July 18, 2007, that analyzed the environmental impacts
associated with development of the Project. The MND determined that there are no
significant impacts with the inclusion of specific mitigation measures identified in the MND
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. The proposed amendments to the DA do
not present any additional environmental impacts. Therefore, the Project remains
consistent with the previously-adopted MND and no further environmental documentation
is required.
PUBLIC NOTICE
Public Notice for this meeting was given consistent with Chapter 17.44.070 of the Zoning
Ordinance as follows:
272

3. Sign. One 32 square-foot sign was placed on the street frontage on February 3,

PROCESSING TIME LIMITS
Time limits have been established for the processing of development projects under the
Permit Streamlining Act (Government Code Title 7, Division 1, Chapter 4.5), the
Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Title 7, Division 2), and the California
Environmental Quality Act Statutes and Guidelines (Public Resources Code Division 13,
and California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3). However, because the subject

subject to the provisions of the Permit Streamlining Act.

Section 1.5 hereof). In consideration of the mutua l covenants and agreements
conta ined in this Agreement, City and Develope r agree as follows:
1. Recita ls. Thi s · Agreement is made with respect to the following facts and for the
following purposes, each of wh ich is acknowledged as true and correct by the
Parties:
1.1 Pursuant to Government Code Section 65864 et seq. and Moo rp ark
Munic ipa l Code Chapter 15.40, City is autho rized to ente r i nto a binding
contractual agreement with any person having a legal or equitable interest
in rea l property within its boundaries for the development of such property
in o rder to establish certa inty in the development process.
1.2 Developer is the owner in fee simple of certain real property in the City of
Moorpark, as more spec ifically described by the legal .description set forth
in Exhib it A, which e xhi bit is attached hereto and i ncorporated herein by
this reference (the "Property").
1.3 Prio r to, and in connect ion with , the app roval of this Agreement, the City
Counc i l reviewed the project to be developed pursuant to this Agreement
as requ ired by the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") The
City Counc il found that the Mitig ated Negative Dec laration ("MND") and
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program ("the MMRP") adopted by
Resolut ion No. 2007-2611 to be applicable to this Agreement and the
Project Approva ls as defined in Sectio n 1.4 of this Agreement and that no
change·s or new information within the scope of State CEQA Guidel ines
Sect ion 15162 requ i res the preparation of a new ·or subsequent
envi ronmental document in connecti on with the approva l of this
Agreement.
1.4 General Plan Amendment No . 2004-05 ("GPA 2004-0 5"), Zone Change
No. 2004-04 ("ZC 2004-04"), and Residential Planned Development
Perm it No. 2012-02 ("RPO 2012-02"), inc lud ing all subsequently approved
mod ifications and perm it adjustments to RPO 2012-02 and all
amendments thereto (collecti ve ly "the Pro ject Approvals"; individ ually "a
Proj ect Approval") provide for the development of the Property with a 200 -
287
unit residential apartment comp lex and the construction of certain off-site
improvements in connect ion therewith ("the Project").
1.5 The Project shall include at least fifty (50) Affordable Units rented to
individuals and families whose incomes do not exceed those specified by
the Affordable Housing Agreement executed by the Developer in favor of

Housing Agreement (the "Affordable Units"). The Project shall be
restricted and encumbered by the Affordable Housing Agreement. The

for, qualify, develop and finance the Project in a manner that qualifies for
tax exempt bond fi nancing and federal low income housing tax credits. For

owned by one owner separate from the ownership of the oth er renta l Un its
in the Pro ject, but the Very Low Income Units and the Low Income Un its
can not be sold to or owned by multiple owners (i.e., the Very Low Income
Units and the Low Income Units must be owned by a single owner at all
times, except that the owner of market rate Units may also own ten (10)
Moderate Income Units which will be rented as Low Income Units unti l the
last to end of the Compliance Period and Extended Use Period or

Project the Very Low Income Units, the Low Income Units and the
Moderate Units will be rented and occup ied in acco rdance w ith the
restrictions set forth in the Affordab le Housing Agreement.

Development Agreement No. 2004-03 fo r the Property, approved by the
City Council on July 18, 2007 by Ordinance No. 355, did not take effect

ord ina nce fo r th is Agreement under Government Code Section 36937

thereof to City and shall thereafter deliver a copy of the revised list to City whenever the
list changes. Should there be a qualified Low or Very Low Income prospective tenant
desiring to rent such a unit but all such units are rented , Owner and Affordable Housing
Owner shall add such prospective tenant to the waiting list for the affordable accessible-
comp liant units. At the earliest possible time a Low or Very Lo)V Income non-accessible

to another affordable unit in order to allow the qualified disabled household to occupy
the accessible compliant unit. Owner and Affordable Housing Owner shall include a
provision in the non-accessible compliant affordable lease for any accessible-compliant
affordable unit that the non-accessible Low or Very Low Income tenant agrees to be
relocated, at Owner's or Affordable Housing Owner's cost, as soon as a non-accessible
compliant unit becomes available. While any of the four (4) affordab le accessible-
compliant units are not being leased to disabled persons (due to unavailability of such
persons to lease), the appl icable Affordable Unit shall be leased in accordance with this
Agreement.
At all times, Affordable Housing Owner shall keep City informed in writing of the
income level appl icable to each accessible compliant unit. The fixed locations of the
Affordable Units shall be as shown on the site plan attached to Exh ibit No. 2.
. .
The accessib le compl iant units shall be consistent with accessibility design
criteria established by the State of California, and Owner and Affordable Housing Owner

laws. Reasonable accommodation shall be made, as may be requested by specific Low
or Very Low Income disabled tenants in such units, to provide features such as ·smoke

Low Income tenants in an accessible compliant unit.
2.7.3 Affordable Housing In Lieu Fee.
2 .7.3.1 ·· In addition to the Affordable Units herein described,
Owner and Affordable Housing Owner shall pay (and be jointly and severally liable for)
a single annual in lieu fee for having irrevocably elected not to provide four (4)
additional Low Income units (the "Affordable Housing In Lieu Fee "). The modification of
affordability levels for Affordable Housing F inancing purposes (as described i n Section
2.1 , 2.12 and Exhibit No. 2), shall not affect the foregoing.
2 .7 .3 .2 The Affordable Housing In Lieu fee shall initially be
Forty Seven Thousand Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($47,500.00) if pa id on or
before Jam1ary 1, 2019. If the initial payment is not paid by January 1, 2019, it shall
increase by two percent (2%) each year above the prior year amount. Similarly, all
subsequent annual payments shall increase by two percent (2%) of the previous year's
payment.
Payments shall be made on March 10 of the first ca lendar year in which one or
more residentia l unit in the ' Project has theretofore been occupied , and on or before
353
March 1 0 of each subsequent ca lendar year. If March 10 falls on a Saturday, Sunday,
or City Holiday, then payment shall be due on the City's next business day. A late
payment charge (const ituting liquidated damages) equal to ten percent (1P%) of the
payment due shall be added to payments received three (3) days or more after the due
date-as stated herein or when a deficient check has been given for payment, and the
parties hereby stipu late and agree that it would be very difficult and impractical to
determine the damages suffered by City, as a public entity , due to late payments.
Payments received more than ten (10) days after the due date shall, i n addit ion to the
ten percent (10%) late charge, accrue interest at a rate of twelve percent (12%) from the
due date through and inc luding the date the payment is received by the City .
In the event of a sale, transfer, assignment of any type or any portion of the
Project or Property by Owner. or Affo rdable Housing Owne r to any othe r entity not
owned in whole or in part by Owner, the . fee amount referenced above shall be
increased based on the new value of the Property as if it had been reassessed by the
Ventura Ct>unty Assessor and not exempt from the payment of new property taxes. The
calculation shall provide the City 0.095% (equivalent to $950.00 per $1 million of
assessed value) of the assessed value or such higher percentage of the tota l new
property taxes if the -City port ion has been increased by action of the State of California
or by a statewide initiative or referendum. (For example, if the sale results i n a val ue of
$50,000,000.00 then the annual fee to the City would be $50,000,000.00 X .00095 =
$47,500.00, or if the City portion of the property taxes has been increased by the State
of California on a statewide initiative or referendum then the amount would increase). In
the event the payment to the City under _this calculation would be less than the I nitial
Affordable Housing In-lieu Fee Amount, inclusive of an y 2%. adjustments applied as of
the date of sale, transfer or assignment, then such adjusted Initial In-lieu Fee Amount .
shall continue until such time as the ca lculation in this paragraph would yield a higher
annual fee.
2 .7.4 Preference Policies. To the extent permitted by app licable state
and federal law, priority shall be granted to eligible City of Moorpark res idents. A
waiting list for the Affo rdab le Units shall be maintained from wh ich vacancies shall be
filled. The waiting list shall be established through a fair process for the selecti9_n of the
next eligible households to fill the vacancies all owing for priority for City of Moorpark
residents to the extent permitted by applicable state and federal law. Details of this
process shall be submitted in writing to the City for review and approval prior to the
issuance of the first bui lding permit for this project. Add itionally, Affordable Housing
Owner shall submit to City an annual report, no later than January 30 of each ca lendar
year for the pervious ca lendar year, describing the vacancies filled from households on
the list, total vacancies filled and the number of households on the l ist.

Affordable Housing Owner will advise City on a quarterly basis in writing of the number
of Affordable Units occup ied by Very Low, Low and Moderate Income Tenants by
delivery of a certificate in the form specified by the City. which is attached hereto as
Exhibit No. 3, which shall include a statement as to whether or not the tenant was a City

354
schedule less frequent than quarterly must be express ly approved in writing by the City
Manager.

Moderate Income Tenant, as applicable, until re-occupied othe r than for a temporary
period (not to exceed· 60 days), at which time the classificat ion of the Unif shall be

(b) An income tax return fo r the most recent tax year;

and/or the California Department of Socia l Services if the applicant receives assistance

Low I ncome applicants for the ADA compliant units shall submit a letter from a
physician or other document acceptable to the City, Owner and Affordable Housing
Owner which confirms t he accessib ility needs of the applicant.
2 .7 .7 Lease Provisions . The Owner and the Affordable Housing Owner
shall include provisions in all signed leases or rental agreements for all Affordable Units
wh ich authorize the Owner or Affordable Housing Owner, as applicable , to im mediate ly
terminate the tenancy of any tenant occupying an Affordable Unit where one or more of

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE RECORDED WITHIN TEN DAYS OF EXECUTION BY ALL PARTIES
HERETO PURSUANT TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF GOVERNMENT CODE §65868. 5
ATTACHMENT 3
423
FIRST AMENDMENT TO DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
BY AND BETWEEN THE CITY OF MOORPARK AND
ESSEX MOORPARK OWNER, LP.
This First Amendment to the Development Agreement ("First Amendment") is
made and entered into on August 2, 2022, and is an amendment to that certain
Development Agreement ("Agreement") that was made and entered into on April 17, 2017,
and recorded on April 17, 2017 by Instrument No. 20170417-00050720-0 by and between
the CITY OF MOORPARK, a municipal corporation (referred to hereinafter as "City"), and
ESSEX MOORPARK OWNER, L.P., a California limited liability company ("Developer").
City and Developer are referred to hereinafter individually as "Party" and collectively as
Parties." In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this First
Amendment to the Agreement, City and Developer agree as follows:
1. Recitals. This First Amendment is made with respect to the following facts
and for the following purposes, each of which is acknowledged as true and
correct by the Parties:
a. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65864 et seq. and
Moorpark Municipal Code chapter 15.40, City is authorized to enter
into a binding contractual agreement with any person having a legal
or equitable interest in real property within its boundaries for the
development of such property in order to establish certainty in the
development process.
b. Developer is the owner of real property within the City, more
specifically described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto (referred to
hereinafter as the "Property").
c. Prior to, and in connection with approval of the Agreement, the City
Council reviewed the project to be developed pursuant to the
Development Agreement as required by the California
Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA".) The City Council found that
the Mitigated Negative Declaration ("MND") and Mitigation
Monitoring and Reporting Program ("the MMRP") adopted by
Resolution No 2007-2611 to be applicable to the Agreement and that
no changes or new information within the scope of State CEQA
Guidelines Section 15162 required the preparation of a new or
subsequent environmental document in connection with the
approval of the Development Agreement.
d. Prior to approval of the Agreement, the City had approved General
Plan Amendment No. 2004-05 ("GPA 2004-05"), Zone Change No.
2004-04 ("ZC 2004-04"), and Residential Planned Development
Permit No. 2012-02 ("RPO 2012-02"), including all subsequently
approved modifications and permit adjustments to RPO 2012-02 and
all amendments thereto (collectively "the Project Approvals";
2 424
individually "a Project Approval") to provide for the development of the
Property with a 200-unit residential apartment complex and the
construction of certain off-site improvements in connection therewith
the Project").
e. Thereafter, the Parties entered into the Agreement with respect to the
Property on April 7, 2017, and the Agreement was recorded on April
17, 2017 by Instrument No. 20170417-00050720-0.
f. In order for Developer to achieve a financial plan to construct the
Project, as well as to provide the housing opportunities for residents
and to assist in advancing the City's state-certified Housing Element,
the Parties desire to amend the Agreement to change the Project from
one that provided that fifty (50) units to be affordable to qualifying
income families to one that provides that 200 units, one hundred
percent (100%) of which to be affordable to qualifying income
families and thereby meet the diverse housing needs of the
community, except for two onsite property manager units which shall
be unrestricted.
g. In consideration of the increase in the number of affordable housing
units to be included in the Project, the City has agreed to provide
reductions in certain development impact fees and to provide for a
deferral of some development impact fees in the form of a long-term
loan to the Developer, which changes are reflected in this First
Amendment.
h. On July 27, 2021, the Planning Commission of the City commenced
a duly noticed public hearing on the environmental determination,
and this First Amendment, and at the conclusion of the hearing
recommended approval of the environmental determination and this
First Amendment.
i. On September 1, 2021, the City Council commenced a duly noticed
public hearing on the environmental determination and this First
Amendment, and at the conclusion of the hearing, made an
environmental determination introduced Ordinance No. 490 to
approve this First Amendment. On September 15, 2021, the City
Council adopted Ordinance No. 490 approving this First
Amendment.
2. Conditions to the Effectiveness of this First Amendment. In addition to the
condition in Section 16 of this First Amendment, the effectiveness of this
First Amendment is conditioned upon the occurrence of the following on
or before October 29, 2022: (i) the sale of the Property to the Affordable
Housing Owner (as defined below); (ii) the assignment of the existing
Affordable Housing Agreement to the Affordable Housing Owner and the
3
425
execution and recording of the Amended and Restated Affordable Housing
Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit "D" (hereinafter referred to as the
Restated Affordable Housing Agreement"); (iii) the execution and delivery
by Affordable Housing Owner of a promissory note and deed of trust in the
forms attached hereto as Exhibit "E" (hereinafter referred to as the "City
Loan Note" and the "City Loan Deed of Trust"), and the recording of such
City Loan Deed of Trust against the Property (excluding the City Site); and
iv) the conveyance by Affordfable Housing Owner to City of the City Site.
3. Amendment of Section 1.5. Section 1.5 of the Agreement is amended to
read as follows:
All of the units at the Project (except onsite manager's units) shall be
Affordable Units rented to individuals and families whose incomes do not
exceed those specified by the Restated Affordable Housing Agreement-at
rents no greater than those set forth in the Restated Affordable Housing
Agreement (the "Affordable Units") or the Regulatory Agreements (as
defined below) encumberinig the Property (it being understood that the
rents under the Restated Affordable Housing Agreement shall apply to the
units restricted thereunder if they are lower than other Regulatory
Agreements). The Project shall be restricted and encumbered by both the
Restated Affordable Housing Agreement and such Regulatory
Agreements. The City and Developer acknowledge and agree that the
Developer shall apply for, qualify, develop and finance the Project in a
manner that qualifies for tax exempt bond financing and federal low-
income housing tax credits.
4. Amendment of Section 3.2. Section 3.2 of the Agreement is amended to
read as follows:
Restrictions on Transfer. The restrictions contained in this Agreement
placed upon any Transfer to any Transferee are imposed because the
qualifications and identity of Developer are of particular concern to the City,
and it is because of those qualifications and identity that the City has
entered into this Agreement with Developer. Except as permitted herein,
Developer shall not Transfer all or any part of its interest in or rights under
this Agreement, and/ or any part of its interest in or rights to the Site and/or
any of the Improvements constructed thereon, without the prior written
approval of City. City's approval shall be granted or withheld in City' s
discretion, but shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
Following a Transfer pursuant to this Agreement with City consent and the
written assumption by the Transferee of the obligations Transferred, the
Transferor shall be released from any further liability thereafter arising with
respect to the obligations Transferred. At any time Developer desires to
effect a Transfer requiring the consent of City under this Agreement,
Developer shall, except as expressly provided below in this Section,
request consent from the City in writing and shall submit to City any
4
426
proposed agreement evidencing the proposed Transfer (collectively, the
Transfer Documents"). City agrees to notify Developer in writing of its
decision with respect to Developer's request for consent to such Transfer,
as promptly as possible, and, in any event, not later than thirty (30) days
after City receives the Developer's written request for consent to the
transfer and the Transfer Documents; provided, that, if City requires
additional time, it may unilaterally extend the approval or disapproval of
such Transfer for up to an additional thirty (30) days by providing written
notice to Developer of such required extension within the initial thirty (30)
day period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Developer has entered into an
Agreement For Purchase and Sale and Escrow Instructions ("Danco
Purchase Agreement") with Danco Homes LLC ("Danco"), a developer
experienced in the development and operation of low-income multifamily
housing communities. Pursuant to the Danco Purchase Agreement,
Developer shall sell the Property to a limited partnership (the "Affordable
Housing Owner") that has Danco or its affiliate as the administrative
general partner to acquire, own, and operate the Project in accordance
with this Agreement and the Restated Affordable Housing Agreement. The
Affordable Housing Owner intends to finance the costs of development of
the Project in part with tax credit equity and tax-exempt bond financing and
the entire Project will be restricted to low-income use pursuant to
regulatory agreements with the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee
and the issuer of the tax-exempt bonds (the "Regulatory Agreements").
The Developer intends to assign all of its rights, title, interest and
obligations under this Agreement and the Restated Affordable Housing
Agreement and their accompanying exhibits to the Affordable Housing
Owner and the Affordable Housing Owner shall execute and record the
Restated Affordable Housing Agreement concurrently with the acquisition
of the Property from Developer. Upon such assignment, all references to
the Developer hereunder shall be a reference to the Affordable Housing
Owner. The sale of the Property and the related assignments of this
Agreement and the Restated Affordable Housing Agreement to the

satisfy the parkland dedication requirement set forth at California
Government Code Section 66477 et seq. for the Property. Developer also
understands that because the above-described payments shall be deemed
to satisfy applicable parkland dedication requirements, a public trail through
the Property shall not be required.

residential dwelling unit within the Property, Developer shall pay a one-time
fee for public art, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the City's
municipal code ("Public Art Fee"). The amount of the Public Art Fee shall

enforceable by the City (which may only enforce this Agreement as
to the Affordable Units restricted by this Agreement), it is
contemplated that such tax credits will necessitate restricting all of
the units at the Project (except manager's units) for rent to Extremely
Low Income Households, Very Low Income Households and Low
Income Households during the periods set forth in the Internal
Revenue Code, as the same may be modified by law applicable to
the low income housing tax credits (the "Compliance Period and

Qualified Project Period").
2.2 Agreement to be Recorded; Priority. Owner will cause this Agreement to be
recorded in the Office of the County Recorder of Ventura County, California concurrently

2.5 Rules. In addition to the conditions and restrictions to be contained in
leases or rental agreements as provided in this Agreement, ongoing operation of the
Project will be subject to reasonable house rules, policies and regulations issued from
time to time by Owner and approved by City which approval shall not be unreasonably

the Initial Rent-Up for the City's approval, which will not be withheld, conditioned or
delayed. Annually, Owner shall submit any amendments, modifications or changes to
such Rules to the City at least forty-five (45) days prior to their proposed effective date
26
448
and all of such amendments, modifications and changes shall be subject to the City's

current California Building Code with respect to the number of Affordable Units that must
be compliant with laws regarding disabled persons (including, without limitation, the
Americans with Disabilities Act) and shall be reserved for and occupied by persons
eligible for such accommodations. Owner shall maintain a waiting list for the affordable
accessible-compliant units, shall promptly deliver a copy thereof to City and shall
thereafter deliver a copy of the revised list to City whenever the list changes. Should
there be a qualified Extremely Low or Very Low Income or Low Income prospective tenant
desiring to rent such a unit but all such units are rented, Owner shall add such prospective
tenant to the waiting list for the affordable accessible-compliant units. At the earliest
possible time an Extremely Low or Very Low or Low Income non-accessible compliant
affordable unit becomes available, the non-accessible Extremely Low or Very Low or Low
Income tenant who occupies the affordable accessible compliant unit shall be relocated
to another affordable unit in order to allow the qualified disabled household to occupy the
accessible compliant unit. Owner shall include a provision in the non-accessible
compliant affordable lease for any accessible-compliant affordable unit that the non-
accessible Extremely Low or Very Low or Low Income tenant agrees to be relocated, at
Owner's cost, as soon as a non-accessible compliant unit becomes available. While any
of the affordable accessible-compliant units are not being leased to disabled persons (due
to unavailability of such persons to lease), the applicable Affordable Unit shall be leased
in accordance with this Agreement.
At all times, Owner shall keep City informed in writing of the income level applicable
to each accessible compliant unit.
The accessible compliant units shall be consistent with accessibility design criteria
established by the State of California, and Owner shall promptly make any changes to
such units required by new laws or changes in laws. Reasonable accommodation shall
be made, as may be requested by specific Extremely Low or Very Low or Low Income
disabled tenants in such units, to provide features such as smoke alarms with flashing
lights, for instance, if requested by hearing impaired Extremely Low or Very Low or Low
Income tenants in an accessible compliant unit.

2.7.3 Preference Policies. To the extent permitted by applicable state and
federal law, priority shall be granted to eligible City of Moorpark residents. A waiting list

households to fill the vacancies allowing for priority for City of Moorpark residents to the
extent permitted by applicable state and federal law. Details of this process shall be
submitted in writing to the City for review and approval prior to the issuance of the first
building permit for this project. Additionally, Owner shall submit to City an annual report,

than for a temporary period (not to exceed 60 days), at which time the classification of the
Unit shall be redetermined (provided that upon such reclassification, Owner must remain
in compliance with this Agreement). Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
prevent such temporary periods from exceeding sixty (60) days. Owner will also obtain
and maintain on file such Certifications of Tenant Eligibility in the form of Exhibit No. 3
attached hereto, for each Extremely Low and Very Low and Low Income Tenant. Owner
shall make a good faith effort to verify that the income declared by an applicant in an
income certification is accurate by reviewing any one or more of the following documents,
which shall be provided by the applicant:

29
451

successor index with which they are replaced shall be used to achieve substantially the
same result, or it there is no successor index, then another index shall be used to achieve
substantially the same result.

the Term.
ARTICLE 6 DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
6.1 An Event of Default. Each of the following shall constitute an "Event of
Default" by the Owner hereunder:
6.1.1 Failure by the Owner to duly perform, comply with and observe the
conditions of Project approval, conditions, terms, or covenants of the Development
Agreement or this Agreement, if such failure remains uncured thirty (30) days after written
notice of such failure from the City in the manner provided herein or, with respect to a
default that cannot be cured within thirty (30) days, if the Owner or Affordable Housing
Owner fails to commence such cure within such thirty (30) day period or thereafter fails
to diligently and continuously proceed with such cure to completion. In no event shall the
City be precluded from exercising remedies if an Event of Default is not cured within ninety
90) days after the first notice of default is given or such longer period as may be agreed
upon by both parties in writing. If a different period or notice requirement is specified
under any other section of this Agreement, then the specific provision shall control.
6.1.2 Failure by Owner to cure any default under Section 2.15 within fifteen
15) business days after written notice of such default by City.
6.1 .3 Any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or in any

uncured thirty (30) days after written notice of such failure from City to Owner in the
manner provided herein or, with respect to a default that cannot be cured within thirty (30)
days, if the Owner fails to commence such cure within such thirty (30) day period or

6.1.5 The Owner shall have assigned its assets for the benefit of its
creditors or suffered a sequestration or attachment or execution on any substantial part
37
459
of its property, unless the property so assigned, sequestered, attached, or executed upon

lesser time period is permitted for cure hereunder) or prior to sale pursuant to such
sequestration, attachment, or execution. If the Owner is diligently working to obtain a

documents.
6.2 Liens.
6.2.1 This Agreement shall be senior in priority to any lien or encumbrance
on the Property (other than the Development Agreement) and all liens and encumbrances
shall be subordinate and subject to this Agreement, regardless of actual date of
recordation. The City shall consider in good faith, reasonable modifications of this
Agreement typically required by secured lenders and commonly known as "mortgagee
protection" provisions; however, in no event shall any such modification shorten the term
of this Agreement or contain or require any subordination of provisions of this Agreement.
6.2.2 Owner shall pay and promptly discharge when due, at their cost and
expense, all liens, encumbrances and charges upon their respective interests in the
Project or the Property, or any part thereof or interest. therein (except the lien of any
mortgage, deed of trust or other recorded instrument securing any construction or
permanent financing for the Project, which shall, in any event, be junior and subordinate
to this Agreement), provided that the existence of any mechanic's, laborer's,
materialman's, supplier's, or vendor's lien or right thereto shall not constitute a violation
of this Section if payment is not yet due under the contract which is the foundation thereof
and if such contract does not postpone payment for more than forty-five (45) days after
the performance thereof. Owner shall have the right to contest in good faith the validity
of any such lien, encumbrance or charge, provided that within ten (10) days after service
of a stop notice or ninety (90) days after recording of a mechanic's lien, Owner shall
deposit with City a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to City in such amounts
as City shall reasonably require, but no more than the amount required to release the lien
under California law and provided further that Owner shall thereafter diligently proceed to
cause such lien, encumbrance or charge to be removed and discharged, and shall, in any
event, cause such lien, encumbrance or charge to be removed or discharged not later
than sixty (60) days prior to any foreclosure sale. If Owner shall fail either to remove and
discharge any such lien, encumbrance or charge or to deposit security in accordance with
38
460
the preceding sentence, if applicable, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of
City, City may, but shall not be obligated to, discharge the same, without inquiring into the
validity of such lien, encumbrance or charge nor into the existence of any defense or
offset thereto, either by paying the amount claimed to be due, or by procuring the
discharge of such lien, encumbrance or charge by depositing in a court a bond or the
amount or otherwise giving security for such claim, in such manner as is or may be
prescribed by law. Owner shall, immediately upon written demand thereof by City, pay
to City an amount equal to all costs and expenses incurred by City in connection with the
exercise by City of the foregoing right to discharge any such lien, encumbrance or charge.
To the extent not paid, all costs and expenses paid by the City shall be a lien on the
Property pursuant to Civil Code Section 2881.
6.3 Costs of Enforcement. If any Event of Default occurs, and is continuing,
City may employ an attorney or attorneys to protect its rights hereunder. Subject to
California Civil Code Section 1717, the non-prevailing party promises to pay to the
prevailing party, on demand, the fees and expenses of such attorneys and all other costs
of enforcing the obligations secured hereby including without limitation, recording fees,
receiver's fees and expenses, and all other expenses of whatever kind or nature, incurred
by the prevailing party in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement, whether or
not such enforcement includes the filing of a lawsuit.
6.4 Enforcement of this Agreement: Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default by Owner, City shall be entitled to enforce performance of any obligation
of Owner arising under this Agreement and to exercise all rights and powers under this
Agreement or any law now or hereafter in force. Additionally, without limiting any of City's
other rights or remedies, upon any leasing of a particular Affordable Unit in violation of
this Agreement, then Owner shall pay the City a single fee of $10 (which shall increase
by $2 every five (5) years) per day until the violation has been cured (it being understood
that if the Affordable Unit is unavailable due to material damage or destruction, Section
2.8.6 above shall govern). Additionally, City shall be entitled to recover from Owner, in
addition to enforcement costs and any other damages to which City may be entitled, all
rent charged by Owner in excess of the rental amounts permitted under this Agreement,
with interest thereon from the date paid to Owner until the date paid by Owner to City at
the lesser of eight percent (8%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law. Owner
stipulates, acknowledges and agrees that the amounts described herein are reasonable
estimates of the minimum damages incurred by the City and public as a result of
violation(s), and that actual damage would be impractical or impossible to determine with
accuracy. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to City is intended to be
exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. Every power or remedy given by this
Agreement to the City may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time
and as often as may be deemed expedient by the City, and the City may pursue
inconsistent remedies. The City shall have the right to mandamus or other suit, action or
proceeding at law or in equity to require the Owner to perform its obligations and
covenants under this Agreement or to enjoin acts or things which may be unlawful or in
violation of the provisions hereof.

To secure for the benefit of Lender the repayment of the indebtedness evidenced by the
Borrower's promissory note dated ______ 2022 (the "Note") in the principal sum of
3,890,500.00 and the performance of the covenants and agreements of the Borrower contained
in this Subordinated Deed of Trust, the Note, and that certain Amended and Restated Affordable
Housing Agreement to be entered into between Lender and Borrower and recorded in the
Official Records of Ventura County concurrently herewith.
Borrower covenants and agrees as follows:
PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. Borrower shall pay when due the
interest and the principal of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note from the sources and
pursuant to the terms of the Note.
COMPLIANCE WITH SENIOR DEED OF TRUST. Borrower covenants and agrees to
comply with the terms and conditions of any senior deeds of trust recorded against the Property
collectively, the "Senior Encumbrances").
CHARGES AND LIENS. Borrower shall pay all taxes, assessments and other charges,
fines and impositions attributable to the Property which may attain a priority over this
Subordinated Deed of Trust. Borrower shall promptly pay when due all installments or
payments required by Lender and comply with all obligations of any deed of trust that is prior to
this Subordinated Deed of Trust.
INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Any insurance proceeds received as a result of damage to
the Property from fire or other calamity shall be first expended as required by any Senior
Encumbrances.
PROTECTION OF LENDER'S SECURITY. If Borrower fails to perform the covenants
and agreements contained in this Subordinated Deed of Trust, or if any action or proceeding is
commenced which materially affects the Lender's interest in the Property, including, but not
limited to, default on or foreclosure of a prior deed of trust, eminent domain, insolvency, code
enforcement, or arrangement or proceedings involving a bankrupt or decedent, then the Lender at
Lender's option, upon notice to the Borrower, may make such appearances, disburse such sums
and take such action as is necessary to protect the Lender's interest including, but not limited to,
disbursement of reasonable attorney's fees and entry upon the Property to make repairs, but shall
have no right of reimbursement.
INSPECTION. Lender may make or cause to be made reasonable entries upon and
inspections of the Property, provided that the Lender shall give Borrower notice prior to any such
inspection specifying reasonable cause therefor related to the Lender's interest in the Property.
CONDEMNATION. Subject to the rights of the holder of a prior deed of trust, the
proceeds of any award or claim for damages, direct or consequential, in connection with any
condemnation or other taking of the Property, or part thereof, or for conveyance in lieu of
condemnation, are hereby assigned and shall be paid to Lender.
In the event of a total taking of the Property, the proceeds shall be treated as if
received from a sale of the Property. The proceeds shall be applied to the sums to be repaid in
85
507
the amount and manner described in the Senior Encumbrances and the documents evidencing the
indebtedness secured thereby. Any part of the proceeds remaining after these amounts have been
paid shall be paid to the Borrower. In the event of a partial taking of the Property, unless
Borrower and Lender agree in writing, the proceeds shall be treated as if received from a sale of
that portion of the Property which is taken in the condemnation. The percentage value of the
portion taken, as compared to the full value of the entire Property, shall be determined by
dividing the condemnation proceeds by the fair market value of the entire Property just prior to
the taking. This percentage value, once determined, shall be used in the following manner to
allocate the condemnation proceeds:
a. First, to the payment of any amount owing under the Senior
Encumbrances and the documents evidencing the indebtedness secured thereby;
b. Second, to payment of the Note;
c. Third, to the Borrower.
BORROWER NOT RELEASED. Extension of the time for payment or modification of
amortization of the sums secured by this Subordinated Deed of Trust granted by the Lender to
any successor in interest of Borrower shall not operate to release, in any manner, the liability of
the original Borrower and Borrower's successors in interest. Lender shall not be required to
commence proceedings against such successor or refuse to extend time for payment or
modification of amortization of the sums secured by this Subordinated Deed of Trust by reason
of any demand made by the original Borrower and Borrower's successors in interest.
FORBEARANCE BY LENDER NOT AW AIYER. Any forbearance by the Lender in
exercising any right or remedy hereunder, otherwise afforded by applicable law, shall not be a
waiver of or preclude the exercise of any such right or remedy. The procurement of insurance or
the payment of taxes or other liens or charges by Lender shall not be a waiver of Lender's right to
accelerate the maturity of the indebtedness secured by this Subordinated Deed of Trust.
REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. All remedies provided in this Subordinated Deed of Trust
are distinct and cumulative to any other right or remedy under this Subordinated Deed of Trust or
afforded by law or equity, and may be exercised concurrently, independently or successively.
SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS BOUND; JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY;
CAPTIONS. The covenants and agreements contained in this Subordinated Deed of Trust shall
bind, and the rights hereunder shall inure to, the respective successors and assigns of Lender and
Borrower, subject to the provisions of Section 16 hereof. All covenants and agreements of
Borrower shall be joint and several. The captions and headings of the Sections of this
Subordinated Deed of Trust are for convenience only and are not to be used to interpret or define
the provisions hereof.
NOTICE. Except for any notice required under applicable law to be given in another
manner, any notice to Borrower or Lender provided for in this Subordinated Deed of Trust shall
be given at the addresses provided in the Note.
86
508
GOVERNING LAW; SEVERABILITY. This Subordinated Deed of Trust shall be
governed by the laws of the State of California. In the event that any provision or clause of this
Subordinated Deed of Trust or the Note as incorporated herein conflicts with applicable law,
such conflict shall not affect other provisions of this Subordinated Deed of Trust or the Note
which can be given effect without the conflicting provision, and to this end the provisions of the
Subordinated Deed of Trust and Note are declared to be severable.
TRANSFER OF THE PROPERTY. If all or any of the Property is sold or transferred by
Borrower, excluding permitted transfers pursuant to this Subordinated Deed of Trust or the Note,
all the sums secured by this Subordinated Deed of Trust shall be immediately due and payable.
In the event of such an acceleration, Lender shall mail Borrower notice of the acceleration in
accordance with Section 12 hereof. Such notice shall provide a period of not less than 60 days
from the date the notice is mailed within which the Borrower may pay the sums declared due. If
the Borrower fails to pay such sums prior to the expiration of such period, Lender may, without
further notice or demand on Borrower, invoke any remedies permitted by Section 16 hereof.
ACCELERATION; REMEDIES Except as provided in Section 15 hereof, upon
Borrower's breach of any covenant or agreement of Borrower in this Subordinated Deed of Trust
or the Note as incorporated by reference in this Subordinated Deed of Trust, including the
covenants to pay, when due, any sums secured by this Subordinated Deed of Trust, Lender, prior
to acceleration, shall mail notice to Borrower as provide in Section 12 hereof specifying: (a) the
breach; (b) the action required to cure such breach; ( c) a date by which such breach must be
cured; and ( d) that failure to cure such breach on or before the date specified in the notice may
result in acceleration of the sums secured by this Subordinated Deed of Trust and sale of the
Property. If the breach is not cured on or before the date specified in the notice, the Lender, at its
option, may seek remedies in the manner provided in the Note. Lender shall be entitled to
collect all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in pursuing the remedies provided in this
Section 16, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees.
Subject to the terms and conditions provided herein, if Lender invokes the power
of sale, Lender shall have appraised, or shall cause Trustee to have appraised, the Property to
determine its fair market value. The Lender shall also execute or cause Trustee to execute a
written notice of the occurrence of an event of default and of Lender's election to cause Property
to be sold, and shall cause such notice to be recorded in each county in which the Property or
some part thereof is located. Lender or Trustee shall mail copies of such notice in a manner
prescribed by applicable law. After the lapse of such time as may be required by applicable law,
Trustee, without demand on Borrower, shall sell the Property at public auction to the highest
bidder at the time and place and under the terms designated in the notice of sale in one or more
parcels and in such order as Trustee may determine. Trustee may postpone sale of all or any
parcel of the Property by public announcement at the time and place of any previously scheduled
sale. Lender or Lender's designee may purchase the Property at any sale.
Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser Trustee's deed conveying the Property so
sold without any covenant or warranty, expressed or implied. The recitals in the Trustee's deed
shall be prime facie evidence of the truth of the statements made therein. Trustee shall apply the
proceeds of the sale in the following order: (a) to all reasonable costs and expenses of the sale,
including, but not limited to, reasonable Trustee and attorneys' fees and costs of title evidence;
87
509
b) to all sums secured by the lien of some other or later security instrument, as evidenced by a
Note, by and between the Borrower and Borrower's lender, that is either prior in lien priority to
the priority of this Subordinated Deed of Trust or to which the Lender has subordinated its lien
rights and, thereby, placed itself in a subordinated position, ( c) to all sums secured by this
Subordinated Deed of Trust, as evidenced by the Note; and ( d) the excess, if any, to the person or
persons legally entitled thereto.
BORROWER'S RIGHT TO REINSTATE. Notwithstanding Lender's acceleration of the
sums secured by this Subordinated Deed of Trust, Borrower shall have the right to have any
proceedings begun by Lender to enforce covenants of this Subordinated Deed of Trust relating to
sums due and payable by Borrower discontinued at any time prior to five days before the
Property is scheduled for sale pursuant to the power of sale contained in this Subordinated Deed
of Trust or at any time prior to entry of a judgment enforcing this Subordinated Deed of Trust if:
a) Borrower pays Lender all sums which would be then due under this Subordinated Deed of
Trust, the Note and notes securing Future Advances, if any, had no acceleration occmTed; (b)
Borrower pays all reasonable expenses incurred by Lender and Trustee in enforcing the
covenants and agreements of Borrower contained in this Subordinated Deed of Trust and in
enforcing Lender's and Trustee's remedies as provided in Section 16 hereof, including, but not
limited to reasonable attorneys' fees; (c) Borrower takes such actions as Lender may reasonably
require to assure that the lien of this Subordinated Deed of Trust, Lender's interest in the
Property, and Borrower's obligation to pay the sums secured by this Subordinated Deed of Trust
shall continue unimpaired. Upon such payment and cure by Borrower, this Subordinated Deed
of Trust and the obligations secured hereby shall remain in full force and effect as if no
acceleration had occurred.
ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS; APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVER; LENDER IN
POSSESSION. As additional security hereunder, subject to the rights of senior lien holders,
Borrower hereby assigns to Lender the rents of the Property, provided that Borrower shall, prior
to acceleration under Section 15 hereof, have the right to collect such rents as they become due.
Upon acceleration under Section 15 hereof or abandonment of the Property, Lender, in person,
by agent or by judicially appointed receiver, shall be entitled to enter upon, take possession of,
rent and manage the Property and to collect the rents of the Property. All rents collected by the
Lender or by a judicially appointed receiver shall be applied first to payment of the cost of
management of the Property and collection of rents, including, but not limited to, receiver's fees,
premiums on receiver's bonds and reasonable attorneys' fees, and then to the sums secured by
this Subordinated Deed of Trust. Lender and the receiver shall be liable to account for those
rents actually received and expenditures actually incurred.
RECONVEY ANCE. Upon payment of all sums evidenced by the Note and secured by
this Subordinated Deed of Trust, Trustee shall reconvey the Property without warranty and
without charge to the person or persons legally entitled thereto. Such person or persons shall pay
all costs ofrecordation, if any.

2.1 Purpose of Restrictions.
A. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to impose affordability

Units in the Project, as set forth on Exhibit No. 2.
B. Owner will obtain Federal low income housing tax credits and tax-
exempt bonds, and a loan from City (collectively, "Affordable
Housing Financing") to finance the Project, and, although not
B-6
534
enforceable by the City (which may only enforce this Agreement as
to the Affordable Units restricted by this Agreement), it is
contemplated that such tax credits will necessitate restricting all of
the units at the Project (except manager's units) for rent to Extremely
Low Income Households, Very Low Income Households and Low
Income Households during the periods set forth in the Internal
Revenue Code, as the same may be modified by law applicable to
the low income housing tax credits (the "Compliance Period and
Extend Use Period") and applicable to the tax exempt bonds (the
"Qualified Project Period").
2.2 Agreement to be Recorded; Priority. Owner will cause this Agreement to
be recorded in the Office of the County Recorder of Ventura County, California
concurrently with the closing of the Project Financing, and Owner shall ensure that this
Agreement shall be senior in priority to any lien, encumbrance or other matter of record
except for property taxes and assessments not yet due and existing easements
necessary for the operation of the Project or as otherwise expressly approved in writing
by City. The Owner shall pay all fees and charges in connection with any such
recordation.
2.3 Use of the Property. Owner represents, warrants, and covenants to develop
and operate the Project and Property as a multifamily residential rental property and uses
incidental thereto and for no other purposes. Amenities for the Affordable Units shall
include, without limitation, air conditioning/heating, plumbing and electrical fixtures,
garbage disposal, flooring, cabinets, counter tops, trim, built-in dishwasher, clothes
washer and dryer hookups or community laundry, sinks, bathtub, solar and/or solar ready,
water heater, built-in oven, microwave, stove, bathroom fan, doors and door hardware,
and floor and window coverings.
Owner agrees not to convert the Project or any part thereof to any type of
common interest development, for-sale condominiums, community apartments, planned
development, stock cooperative, hotel, motel, or any type of congregate care or assisted
living facility. Owner agrees that they shall not knowingly permit any of the Units in the
Project to be used on a transient basis and shall not rent any Unit for a period of less than
thirty (30) days. At no time shall any of the Affordable Units be rented to an employee,
agent, officer, contractor of any owner of any portion of the Property or Project or of any
company affiliated with any such owner, or to any such affiliated company.
2.4 INTENTIONALLY OMITTED
2.5 Rules. In addition to the conditions and restrictions to be contained in
leases or rental agreements as provided in this Agreement, ongoing operation of the
Project will be subject to reasonable house rules, policies and regulations issued from
time to time by Owner and approved by City which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned, or delayed ("Rules"). Owner shall submit such Rules to City during
the Initial Rent-Up for the City's approval, which will not be withheld, conditioned or
delayed. Annually, Owner shall submit any amendments, modifications or changes to
B-7
535
such Rules to the City at least forty-five (45) days prior to their proposed effective date
and all of such amendments, modifications and changes shall be subject to the City's
prior written consent, which will not be withheld, conditioned or delayed. If City does not
consent, City shall specify the reasons in writing so that Owner can revise the
amendment(s), modification(s) or change(s) and re-submit them for City approval, which
will not be withheld, conditioned or delayed. In addition, Owner shall submit to the City
on an annual basis a certification that the Rules previously submitted to City, as amended,
remain in effect (with a copy of the Rules and any amendments). If applicable, this
Agreement shall be consistent with any Extended Use Agreement entered into between
Owner and the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee.
2.6 Single Owner. All of the Affordable Units shall be and remain owned by the
Owner for the term of this Agreement. No Affordable Unit may be sold separately.
2.7 Affordable Units Generally.
2.7.1 Accessible Compliant Units. Four (4) Affordable Units shall be
compliant with all laws regarding disabled persons (including, without limitation, the
Americans with Disabilities Act) and shall be reserved for and occupied by persons
eligible for such accommodations. Owner shall maintain a waiting list for the affordable
accessible-compliant units, shall promptly deliver a copy thereof to City and shall
thereafter deliver a copy of the revised list to City whenever the list changes. Should
there be a qualified Extremely Low or Very Low Income or Low Income prospective tenant
desiring to rent such a unit but all such units are rented, Owner shall add such prospective
tenant to the waiting list for the affordable accessible-compliant units. At the earliest
possible time an Extremely Low or Very Low or Low Income non-accessible compliant
affordable unit becomes available, the non-accessible Extremely Low or Very Low or Low
Income tenant who occupies the affordable accessible compliant unit shall be relocated
to another affordable unit in order to allow the qualified disabled household to occupy the
accessible compliant unit. Owner shall include a provision in the non-accessible
compliant affordable lease for any accessible-compliant affordable unit that the non-
accessible Extremely Low or Very Low or Low Income tenant agrees to be relocated, at
Owner's cost, as soon as a non-accessible compliant unit becomes available. While any
of the four (4) affordable accessible-compliant units are not being leased to disabled
persons (due to unavailability of such persons to lease), the applicable Affordable Unit
shall be leased in accordance with this Agreement.
At all times, Owner shall keep City informed in writing of the income level applicable
to each accessible compliant unit.
The accessible compliant units shall be consistent with accessibility design criteria
established by the State of California, and Owner shall promptly make any changes to
such units required by new laws or changes in laws. Reasonable accommodation shall
be made, as may be requested by specific Extremely Low or Very Low or Low Income
disabled tenants in such units, to provide features such as smoke alarms with flashing
lights, for instance, if requested by hearing impaired Extremely Low or Very Low or Low
Income tenants in an accessible compliant unit.

536
2.7.2 [Intentionally Deleted].
2.7.3 Preference Policies. To the extent permitted by applicable state and
federal law, priority shall be granted to eligible City of Moorpark residents. A waiting list
for the Affordable Units shall be maintained from which vacancies shall be filled. The
waiting list shall be established through a fair process for the selection of the next eligible
households to fill the vacancies allowing for priority for City of Moorpark residents to the
extent permitted by applicable state and federal law. Details of this process shall be
submitted in writing to the City for review and approval prior to the issuance of the first
building permit for this project. Additionally, Owner shall submit to City an annual report,
no later than January 30 of each calendar year for the pervious calendar year, describing
the vacancies filled from households on the list, total vacancies filled and the number of
households on the list.
2.7.4 Occupancy Reporting. As specified in Section 2.12, Owner will
advise City on a quarterly basis in writing of the number of Affordable Units in the entire
Project occupied by Extremely Low or Very Low or Low Income Tenants by delivery of a
certificate in the form specified by the City, which is attached hereto as Exhibit No. 3,
which shall include a statement as to whether or not the tenant was a City of Moorpark
resident who on the waiting list and was given priority. Any reporting schedule less
frequent than quarterly must be expressly approved in writing by the City Manager.
2.7.5 Unit Classification. Subject to the rules and regulations of the
California Tax Credit Allocation Committee, an Affordable Unit occupied by an Extremely
Low or Very Low or Low Income Tenant shall be deemed, upon termination of occupancy
by such tenant (whether voluntarily or involuntarily), to be continuously occupied by an
Extremely Low or Very Low or Low Income Tenant, as applicable, until re-occupied other
than for a temporary period (not to exceed 60 days), at which time the classification of the
Unit shall be redetermined (provided that upon such reclassification, Owner must remain
in compliance with this Agreement). Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
prevent such temporary periods from exceeding sixty (60) days. Owner will also obtain
and maintain on file such Certifications of Tenant Eligibility in the form of Exhibit No. 3
attached hereto, for each Extremely Low and Very Low and Low Income Tenant. Owner
shall make a good faith effort to verify that the income declared by an applicant in an
income certification is accurate by reviewing any one or more of the following documents,

laws and the rules and regulations of the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee,
eligible Extremely Low and Very Low and Low Income applicants for the ADA compliant
units shall submit a letter from a physician or other document acceptable to the City and
Owner which confirms the accessibility needs of the applicant.
2.7.6 Lease Provisions. Subject to the rules and regulations of the
California Tax Credit Allocation Committee, the Owner shall include provisions in all
signed leases or rental agreements for all Affordable Units which authorize the Owner to
immediately terminate the tenancy of any tenant occupying an Affordable Unit where one
or more of such tenants have misrepresented any fact material to the qualification of such
an individual or household as an Extremely Low or Very Low or Low Income Tenant
and/or for qualification for occupancy of an Affordable Unit, and Owner shall reasonably
enforce such termination rights (.i.&.:, Owner shall exercise them and not waive them).

administration of this Agreement (and be jointly and severally liable for) an annual fee
equal to twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00), subject to adjustment annually by the

(a) The percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index during
the prior year, which shall be determined by using the Consumer Price Index by the U.S.
Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, for all urban consumers, all items, for
the Los Angeles/Riverside/Orange County metropolitan area (i.e., the Los Angeles-Long
Beach-Anaheim index). The calculation shall be made by copying such CPI for the month
of October to the CPI for the previous October.
(b) The annual percentage amount paid to City by the Local
Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), calculated as follows: The sum of the quarterly effective
yield amounts paid by LAIF for the City's Pooled Money Investment Account for the most
recent four (4) calendar quarters divided by four (4).
B-10
538
In the event the CPI or LAIF is discontinued or revised, such
successor index with which they are replaced shall be used to achieve substantially the
same result, or it there is no successor index, then another index shall be used to achieve
substantially the same result.
2.7.9 Lease Provisions. The provIsIons relating to certification and
recertification of income in the form of lease or rental agreement used by the Owner for
the lease or rental of the Affordable Units shall be subject to review and approval by the

vacancies to or contacting by telephone potential tenants on the waiting list maintained
by Owner. Notices shall also be given to organizations in Ventura County which provide
referrals or other services to persons with disabilities.
2.8.2 In the event that any Affordable Unit is rendered unfit for occupancy
(including by damage or destruction), then until the Affordable Unit is
repaired/reconstructed (so that it is available for leasing in compliance with this
Agreement), Owner shall pay the City a single fee of $10 (which shall increase by $2
every five (5) years) per day until the Affordable Unit is placed back in service except that
such fee shall not be payable for so long as Owner is diligently attempting to repair or re-
build the Affordable Unit in question, as shown by reasonable evidence provided to City.
2.9 Affordable Rent.
2.9.1 Monthly rent charged to Extremely Low Income households shall be

2.10 Alternative Affordable Rent Calculations. If the requirements or practices
of the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (CTCAC), the California Debt Limit
Allocation Committee (CDLAC), any lender as Bond owner, or other entity or entities
similarly associated with anticipated financing of the construction of this project, or future
prudent refinancing of this project, utilizes definitions, sources of information, etc., other
than those which have been herein defined and utilized in calculating Affordable Rent,
then the procedure or input which produces the lowest affordable rent, will prevail as to
the applicable Affordable Unit restricted by this Agreement.
2 .11 Income Recertification; Rent Increases.
2.11.1 Owner shall cause the income of each Tenant of an Affordable Unit
to be re-certified on an annual basis on the anniversary date of each such tenant's initial

days of such action.
2.11.2 Rents for the Affordable Units may be increased only once per
calendar year, concurrently with or subsequent to any increase in the County Median
Income when and as determined by HCD. The rents charged for the Affordable Units
following such an increase, or upon a vacancy and new occupancy by an Extremely Low
or Very Low or Low Income Tenant, as the case may be, shall not exceed the allowable
rent calculated in compliance with Sections 2.9, 2.12.1, 2.12.2, and 2.12.3 below.
B-12
540
2.12 Increased Income of Occupying Households. Only after the last to expire
of the Compliance Period and Extended Use Period or the Qualified Project Period with
respect to the Extremely Low Income Units and Very Low Income Units, the following
shall apply:
2.12.1 If, upon income recertification, the Owner determines that the
household income of an Extremely Low Income Tenant has increased above the
maximum allowable household income level of an Extremely Low Income Tenant, but
remains equal to or below that of a Very Low Income household, then, except as provided
below in this Section 2.12, the Owner shall not be required to evict the Tenant and the
monthly rent charged to such Tenant shall be not greater than one-twelfth (1 /12) of thirty
percent (30%) of fifty percent (50%) of the County Median Income for the size household
appropriate to the unit (less the utility allowance), upon sixty (60) days written notice to
the occupants thereof. In that event, the next available unit that was previously a Very
Low Income Unit must be rented to (or held vacant and available for immediate occupancy
by) an Extremely Low Income household.
2.12.2 If, upon income recertification, the Owner determines that the
household income of a Very Low Income Tenant has increased above the maximum
allowable household income level of a Very Low Income Tenant, but remains equal to or
below that of a Low Income household, then, except as provided below in this Section
2.12, the Owner shall not be required to evict the Tenant and the monthly rent charged to
such Tenant shall be not greater than one-twelfth (1 /12) of thirty percent (30%) of sixty
percent (60%) of the County Median Income for the size household appropriate to the
unit (less the utility allowance), upon sixty (60) days written notice to the occupants
thereof. In that event, the next available unit that was previously a Low Income Unit must
be rented to (or held vacant and available for immediate occupancy by) a Very Low
Income household.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Tenant shall have the right to
request a recertification of income (not later than sixty (60) days prior to the date they are
supposed to vacate). If the recertification shows that income is not greater than the
maximum allowable household income level due to a documented voluntary reduction of
income, then the notice to vacate shall be withdrawn.
Until the last to end of the Compliance Period and Extended Use Period or
the Qualified Project Period, Owner shall comply with laws and regulations of CTCAC,
CDLAC and any separate/additional recorded restrictions or "Regulatory Agreement"
required by the Affordable Housing Financing and such requirements with respect to over-
income tenants shall prevail.
Owner shall promptly deliver to City copies of all Affordable Housing
Financing regulatory agreements or similar agreements restricting Units in the Project,
and shall notify City and all affected tenants in writing of the expiration of the period at
least one (1) calendar year (but not more than fourteen (14) months) prior to expiration of
the Compliance Period and Extended Use Period or Qualified Project Period, whichever
expires later, of any effect on the affordability level of their Affordable Units.
B-13
541
Additionally, Owner shall notify City in writing of any re-syndication or
extension of tax credit financing and any defeasance or refinancing of bond financing as
soon as they become reasonably likely.
2.13 Specific Enforcement of Affordability Restrictions.
2.13.1 Owner hereby agrees that specific enforcement of Owner's
agreements to comply with the allowable rent and occupancy restrictions of this
Agreement is one of the reasons for the City's issuing the Project Approvals and entering
into the Amendment to Development Agreement.
2.13.2 Owner further agrees that, in the event of any breach of such
requirements, potential monetary damages to City, as well as prospective Extremely Low
and Very Low Income Tenants, would be difficult, if not impossible, to evaluate and
quantify.
2.13.3 Therefore, in addition to any other relief or damages to which the
City may be entitled as a consequence of the breach hereof, Owner agrees to the
imposition of the remedy of specific performance against it in the case of any event of
default by Owner in complying with the allowable rent, occupancy restrictions or any other
provision of this Agreement. Nothing herein shall impair City's rights to liquidated
damages under Section 6.4 below.
2.14 [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

quarter or the end of the calendar quarter in which construction of the Project was
completed, whichever occurs later, Owner shall prepare and submit to the City, on a
quarterly basis, written reports, setting forth the rental activity for the previous month, and
the current total number of Affordable Units occupied by tenants.

Agreement; and (c) such other information as may be requested in writing by the City
Manager.

report in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the City, not later than March 31st
of each year for the preceding calendar year, summarizing the vacancy rate of the
Affordable Units in the Project on a month-to-month basis for such calendar year.
B-14
542
2.15.4 Owner shall also deliver to City from time to time any other
information about the Affordable Units and the rental thereof as may be reasonably

B-17
545
ARTICLE 6 DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
6.1 An Event of Default. Each of the following shall constitute an "Event of
Default" by the Owner hereunder:
6.1.1 Failure by the Owner to duly perform, comply with and observe the
conditions of Project approval, conditions, terms, or covenants of the Development
Agreement or this Agreement, if such failure remains uncured thirty (30) days after written
notice of such failure from the City in the manner provided herein or, with respect to a
default that cannot be cured within thirty (30) days, if the Owner or Affordable Housing
Owner fails to commence such cure within such thirty (30) day period or thereafter fails
to diligently and continuously proceed with such cure to completion. In no event shall the
City be precluded from exercising remedies if an Event of Default is not cured within ninety
(90) days after the first notice of default is given or such longer period as may be agreed
upon by both parties in writing. If a different period or notice requirement is specified
under any other section of this Agreement, then the specific provision shall control.
6.1.2 Failure by Owner to cure any default under Section 2.15 within fifteen
(15) business days after written notice of such default by City.
6.1.3 Any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or in any
application, financial statement, certificate, or report submitted to the City by Owner
proves to have been incorrect in any material respect when made, if such failure remains
uncured thirty (30) days after written notice of such failure from City to Owner in the
manner provided herein or, with respect to a default that cannot be cured within thirty (30)
days, if the Owner fails to commence such cure within such thirty (30) day period or
thereafter fail to diligently and continuously proceed with such cure to completion.
6.1.4 A court having jurisdiction shall have made or rendered a decree or
order (a) adjudging Owner to be bankrupt or insolvent; (b) approving as properly filed a
petition seeking reorganization of Owner or seeking any arrangement on behalf of the
Owner under the bankruptcy law or any other applicable debtor's relief law or statute of
the United States or of any state or other jurisdiction which is not dismissed within sixty
(60) days after filing; (c) appointing a receiver, trustee, liquidator, or assignee for the
benefit of creditors of the Owner in bankruptcy or insolvency or for any of its properties
which (or who) is not discharged within sixty (60) days after its appointment; or (d)
directing the winding up or liquidation of the Owner, providing, however, that any such
decree or order described in any of the foregoing subsections shall have continued
unstayed or undischarged for a period of ninety (90) days.
6.1.5 The Owner shall have assigned its assets for the benefit of its
creditors or suffered a sequestration or attachment or execution on any substantial part
of its property, unless the property so assigned, sequestered, attached, or executed upon
shall have been returned or released within ninety (90) days after such event (unless a
lesser time period is permitted for cure hereunder) or prior to sale pursuant to such
sequestration, attachment, or execution. If the Owner is diligently working to obtain a
return or release of the property and the City's interest hereunder is not imminently
B-18
546
threatened in the City's reasonable business judgment, then the City shall not declare a
default under this subsection.
6.1.6 The Owner shall have voluntarily suspended its business for a period
of thirty (30) consecutive days or dissolved and a subsequent owner has not assumed
the obligations of Owner in accordance with this Agreement.

document or deed of trust relating to any loan made in connection with the Project or
Property, which loan is secured by a deed of trust or other instrument of record, and is
not cured within the applicable cure period, if any, granted in the applicable loan
documents.
6.2 Liens.
6.2.1 This Agreement shall be senior in priority to any lien or encumbrance
on the Property (other than the Development Agreement) and all liens and encumbrances
shall be subordinate and subject to this Agreement, regardless of actual date of
recordation. The City shall consider in good faith, reasonable modifications of this
Agreement typically required by secured lenders and commonly known as "mortgagee
protection" provisions; however, in no event shall any such modification shorten the term
of th is Agreement or contain or require any subordination of provisions of this Agreement.
6.2.2 Owner shall pay and promptly discharge when due, at their cost and
expense, all liens, encumbrances and charges upon their respective interests in the
Project or the Property, or any part thereof or interest therein (except the lien of any
mortgage, deed of trust or other recorded instrument securing any construction or
permanent financing for the Project, which shall, in any event, be junior and subordinate
to this Agreement), provided that the existence of any mechanic's, laborer's,
materialman's, supplier's, or vendor's lien or right thereto shall not constitute a violation
of this Section if payment is not yet due under the contract which is the foundation thereof
and if such contract does not postpone payment for more than forty-five (45) days after
the performance thereof. Owner shall have the right to contest in good faith the validity
of any such lien, encumbrance or charge, provided that within ten (10) days after service
of a stop notice or ninety (90) days after recording of a mechanic's lien, Owner shall
deposit with City a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to City in such amounts
as City shall reasonably require, but no more than the amount required to release the lien
under California law and provided further that Owner shall thereafter diligently proceed to
cause such lien, encumbrance or charge to be removed and discharged, and shall, in any
event, cause such lien, encumbrance or charge to be removed or discharged not later
than sixty (60) days prior to any foreclosure sale. If Owner shall fail either to remove and
discharge any such lien, encumbrance or charge or to deposit security in accordance with
the preceding sentence, if applicable, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of
City, City may, but shall not be obligated to, discharge the same, without inquiring into the
validity of such lien, encumbrance or charge nor into the existence of any defense or
offset thereto, either by paying the amount claimed to be due, or by procuring the
discharge of such lien, encumbrance or charge by depositing in a court a bond or the
B-19
547
amount or otherwise giving security for such claim, in such manner as is or may be
prescribed by law. Owner shall, immediately upon written demand thereof by City, pay
to City an amount equal to all costs and expenses incurred by City in connection with the
exercise by City of the foregoing right to discharge any such lien, encumbrance or charge.
To the extent not paid, all costs and expenses paid by the City shall be a lien on the
Property pursuant to Civil Code Section 2881.
6.3 Costs of Enforcement. If any Event of Default occurs, and is continuing,
City may employ an attorney or attorneys to protect its rights hereunder. Subject to
California Civil Code Section 1717, the non-prevailing party promises to pay to the
prevailing party, on demand, the fees and expenses of such attorneys and all other costs
of enforcing the obligations secured hereby including without limitation, recording fees,
receiver's fees and expenses, and all other expenses of whatever kind or nature, incurred
by the prevailing party in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement, whether or
not such enforcement includes the filing of a lawsuit.
6.4 Enforcement of this Agreement; Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default by Owner, City shall be entitled to enforce performance of any obligation
of Owner arising under this Agreement and to exercise all rights and powers under this
Agreement or any law now or hereafter in force. Additionally, without limiting any of City's
other rights or remedies, upon any leasing of a particular Affordable Unit in violation of
this Agreement, then Owner shall pay the City a single fee of $10 (which shall increase
by $2 every five (5) years) per day until the violation has been cured (it being understood
that if the Affordable Unit is unavailable due to material damage or destruction, Section
2.8.6 above shall govern). Additionally, City shall be entitled to recover from Owner, in
addition to enforcement costs and any other damages to which City may be entitled, all
rent charged by Owner in excess of the rental amounts permitted under this Agreement,
with interest thereon from the date paid to Owner until the date paid by Owner to City at
the lesser of eight percent (8%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law. Owner
stipulates, acknowledges and agrees that the amounts described herein are reasonable
estimates of the minimum damages incurred by the City and public as a result of
violation(s), and that actual damage would be impractical or impossible to determine with
accuracy. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to City is intended to be
exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. Every power or remedy given by this
Agreement to the City may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time
and as often as may be deemed expedient by the City, and the City may pursue
inconsistent remedies. The City shall have the right to mandamus or other suit, action or
proceeding at law or in equity to require the Owner to perform its obligations and
covenants under this Agreement or to enjoin acts or things which may be unlawful or in
violation of the provisions hereof.

attorney, partner or consultant of the Owner shall be personally liable to City in the event
of any default or breach by Owner or for any amount which may become due to City or
its successor, or on any obligations under the terms of this Agreement or Development
Agreement.
7.5.2 Notwithstanding any other provision or obligation to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, (i) the liability of Owner under this Agreement to any person
or entity, including, but not limited to, City and its successors and assigns, is limited to
their interests in the Project and the Property, and such persons and entities shall look
exclusively thereto, or to such other security as may from time to time be given for the
payment of obligations arising out of this Agreement or any other agreement securing the
obligations of Owner, under this Agreement, (ii) from and after the date of this Agreement,
no deficiency or other personal judgment, nor any order or decree of specific performance

(other than their interests in the Project, and this Agreement), in any action or proceeding
arising out of this Agreement.
7.6 Force Majeure. Whenever a party required to perform an act under this
Agreement by a certain time, said time shall be deemed extended so as to take into
account events of force majeure. As used herein "force majeure" shall mean a delay in

7.8 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise expressly stated in
this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative, and the exercise
or failure to exercise one or more of such rights or remedies by either party shall not
preclude the exercise by it, at the same time or different times, of any right or remedy for
the same default or any other default by the other party. No waiver of any default or
breach hereunder shall be implied from any omission to take action on account of such
default if such default persists or is repeated, and no express waiver shall affect any
default other than the default specified in the waiver, and such wavier shall be operative
only for the time and to the extent therein stated. Waivers of any covenant, term, or
condition contained herein shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach
of the same covenant, term or condition. The consent or approval by the City to or of any
act by the Owner requiring further consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or
render unnecessary the consent or approval to or of any subsequent similar act. The
exercise of any right, power, or remedy shall in no event constitute a cure or a waiver of
any default under this Agreement, nor shall it invalidate any act done pursuant to notice
of default, or prejudice the City in the exercise of any right, power, or remedy hereunder.
7.9 Enforcement; Waiver. The City may take whatever action at law or in equity
as may be necessary or desirable to enforce performance and observance of any
obligation, agreement or covenant of the Owner under this Agreement. No delay or
omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such
right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of such right or power, but any such
right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as City may deem
expedient. In order to entitle the City to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this
Agreement, it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may
be herein expressly required or required by law to be given.
7 .10 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement
is held in a final disposition by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or
unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect unless the
rights and obligations of the parties have been materially altered or abridged by such
invalidation, voiding or unenforceability.
7.11 Legal Actions. In the event any legal action is commenced to interpret or to
enforce the terms of this Agreement or to collect damages as a result of any breach
thereof, the party prevailing in any such action shall be entitled to recover against the
party not prevailing all reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in such action
(including, without limitation, all reasonable legal fees incurred in any appeal or in any
action to enforce any resulting judgment).
7.12 Binding Upon Successors; Assignment by City. This Agreement, and the
exhibits attached hereto, shall run with the land and be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the successors and assigns of each of the parties, and successors in interest
to the Project or any portion thereof or interest therein. Any reference in this Agreement
to Owner shall be deemed to apply to any successor or assign or successor-in-interest of
such party who has acquired any portion of or interest in the Project. Without limiting the
B-23
551
foregoing, City may assign this Agreement to the Area Housing Authority of the County
of Ventura or any other housing authority created by City or in which City is a member.
7 .13 Binding Effect; Successors and Assigns. Owner covenants and agrees for
itself, and its successors and assigns and every successor in interest to any portion of or
interest in the Project that it and its successors, assigns and successors in interest shall
comply with all of the terms, provisions, easements, conditions, covenants, restrictions,
liens, and servitudes set forth in this Agreement. This Agreement is intended to bind the
Project and Property "run with the land".
7 .14 Transfers. Owner shall provide the City with at least thirty (30) days' prior
written notice of any sale or transfer of the Project or the Property or any portion thereof.
The Affordable Units shall at all times remain owned by a single entity. Written notice shall
be given to the City of any transfer, but no consent of the City shall be required for any
transfer of Affordable Units to an entity of which Danco Homes or any affiliate thereof,
that directly or indirectly, owns and controls, or partially owns but controls the entity to
which the transfer will be made, provided that the City is given a copy of the Assignment
and Assumption Agreement and organizational documents that prove the entity is such
an affiliate of Danco Homes and has such ownership and control.
7.15 Time of the Essence. In all matters under this Agreement, time is of the
essence.
7.16 Complete Understanding of the Parties. The Project Approvals and this
Agreement constitute the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect
to the matters described herein and therein.
7.17 Construction and Interpretation of Agreement. The parties hereto
acknowledge and agree that this Agreement has been prepared jointly by the parties and
has been the subject of arm's length and careful negotiation over a considerable period
of time, that each party has reviewed this Agreement with legal counsel, and that each
party has the requisite experience and sophistication to understand, interpret and agree
to the particular language of the provisions of this Agreement. Accordingly, in the event
of an ambiguity in or dispute regarding the interpretation of this Agreement,
notwithstanding Civil Code Section 1654, this Agreement shall not be interpreted or
construed against the party preparing it, and instead other rules of interpretation and
construction shall be utilized.
7.18 Controlling Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be deemed to be entered
into in California and shall be controlled and interpreted by the internal laws of California,
without regard to conflict of law provisions, except to the extent federal law applies. Venue
for any action brought under this Agreement will be in the Superior Court for the County
of Ventura, California or in the United States District Court for the Central District of
California. Owner hereby accepts for itself and in respect to its property, generally and
unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the foregoing courts. Owner irrevocably
consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding by the mailing of copies
thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to Owner at its address for notices
B-24

the policy limits shall be increased by ten percent (10%) of the then-current limit.
(b) Comprehensive automobile liability insurance with limits not
less than $2,000,000 for each occurrence, combined single limit for bodily injury and

to City and Owner; except that no such appraisals shall be required if the policy is written
on a "replacement cost" basis.

limit, such annual aggregate limit shall be one and one-half times the occurrence limits
specified above. All policies shall be with an insurance carrier licensed and admitted to
do business in California and rated in Best's Insurance Guide, or any successor thereto

Rating" of "A" and a "Financial Size Category" of at least "VII" or if such ratings are not
then in effect, the equivalent thereof.
7.20.3 Additional Insured. The City shall be named as an additional insured
on the general liability insurance covering the Project and the Property with an
endorsement form as approved by the City Manager or his/her designee. Comprehensive
general liability policies shall also be endorsed to name as additional insureds the City,
and its City Council members, officers, agents and employees. All policies shall be
endorsed to provide thirty (30) days prior written notice of cancellation, reduction in
coverage, or intent not to renew to the address established for notices to the City pursuant
to Section 7 .1 of this Agreement.
7.20.4 Certificates of Insurance. Upon the City's request at any time during
the Term of this Agreement, Owner shall provide certificates of insurance, in form and

requirements of this Section, and shall provide complete copies of such insurance
policies, including a separate endorsement approved by the City Manager or his/her
designee, as indicated in Section 7.20.3, naming the City as an additional insured.

and intent of the burden of the covenants set forth herein touching and concerning the
Project and the Property.
7.22 Amendments. Changes and modifications to this Agreement shall be made

B-28
556
to this Agreement which would adversely affect any bonds issued under this Project
without the written consent of all appropriate parties with respect to any bond issuance.
7.23 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not benefit or be
enforceable by any person, or firm, or corporation, public or private, except the City and
Owner and their respective successors and assigns.
7.24 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, which
together will be one agreement.
7.25 Assessment Districts; Covenant and Waivers. Owner agrees to cast
affirmative ballots for the increase of any assessment for existing assessment districts for
the maintenance of parking and median landscaping, street lighting and parks conferring
special benefits, and for the formation of any new assessment district for such purposes,
in order to supplement then-existing assessments upon properties within the Project.
Owner hereby waives any right they or either of them may have to contest or protest such
assessments or any assessment increases. In the event that any such assessment
district has insufficient funds for its purposes, then Owner shall pay the funds that the
assessment district requires to the assessment district within five (5) business days after
written demand from the assessment district from time to time.

have to contest or protest any such assessments or assessment increases. In the event
that any such Assessment District has insufficient funds for its purposes, then Owner shall
pay the funds required to the Assessment District within five (5) business days after

(hereinafter the "Work") and (ii) paying the City $400,000 in connection with that Work
("Payment");
WHEREAS, the Work and Payment to be performed or made by
PRINCIPAL is more particularly set forth in that certain Second Amendment to the
Development Agreement dated _____ 2022, (hereinafter the "Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, the Agreement is hereby referred to and incorporated herein
by this reference; and
WHEREAS, PRINCIPAL or its contractor is required by the Agreement to
provide a good and sufficient bond for performance of the Agreement, and to guarantee
and warranty the Work constructed thereunder and the Payment.
NOW, THEREFORE, we the undersigned, Essex Moorpark Owner, L.P., as
PRINCIPAL and ______ , a corporation organized and existing under the laws
of the State of ___ and duly authorized to transact business under the laws of the
State of California, as SURETY, are held and firmly bound unto the CITY in the sum of
____________ ($ _____ ~, said sum being not less than one
hundred percent (100%) of the total cost of the Work and Payment as set forth in the
Agreement, we bind ourselves, our heirs, executors and administrators, successors and
assigns, jointly and severally, firmly by these presents.
THE CONDITION OF THIS OBLIGATION is such, that if PRINCIPAL and
its contractors, or their heirs, executors, administrators, successors or assigns, shall in all
things stand to and abide by, and well and truly keep and perform the covenants,
conditions, agreements, guarantees, and warranties in the Agreement and any alteration
thereof made as therein provided, to be kept and performed at the time and in the manner
therein specified and in all respects according to their intent and meaning, and to
indemnify and save harmless CITY, its officers, employees, and agents, as stipulated in
the Agreement, then this obligation shall become null and void; otherwise it shall be and
remain in full force and effect.
As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the contract, the
above obligation shall hold good for a period of one (1) year(s) after the acceptance of
the work by CITY, during which time if PRINCIPAL shall fail to make full, complete, and
satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the CITY from loss or damage
D-2

made evident during the period of one (1) year(s) from the date of completion of the work,
and resulting from or caused by defective materials or faulty workmanship, the above
obligation in penal sum thereof shall remain in full force and effect. The obligation of
SURETY hereunder shall continue so long as any obligation of PRINCIPAL remains.
Whenever PRINCIPAL shall be, and is declared by the CITY to be, in default
under the contract, the CITY having performed the CITY's obligations thereunder, the
SURETY shall promptly remedy the default in a manner mutually agreeable to both CITY
and SURETY:
1. SURETY's takeover of the performance obligations to complete the
contract by entering into an agreement with a completion contractor with terms and
conditions consistent with the original contract between CITY and PRINCIPAL; or
2. SURETY shall obtain a bid or bids for completing the contract in
accordance with its terms and conditions, and upon determination by SURETY of the
lowest responsive and responsible bidder, prepare a contract between such bidder and
the CITY (to the CITY's satisfaction), and make available as work progresses sufficient
funds to pay the cost of completion less the balance of the contract price, but not
exceeding, including other costs and damages for which SURETY may be liable
hereunder, the Penal Sum.
The term "balance of the contract price" as used in this paragraph shall
mean the total amount payable to PRINCIPAL by the CITY under the contract and any
modifications thereto, less the amount previously properly paid by the CITY to the
PRINCIPAL.
SURETY expressly agrees that the CITY may reject any contractor or
subcontractor, which may be proposed by SURETY in fulfillment of its obligations in the
event of default by PRINCIPAL. SURETY shall not utilize PRINCIPAL in completing the
contract nor shall SURETY accept a bid from PRINCIPAL for completion of the work if
the CITY, when declaring the PRINCIPAL in default, notifies SURETY of the CITY's
objection to PRINCIPAL's further participation in the completion of the work.
No right of action shall accrue on this bond to or for the use of any person
or corporation other than the CITY named herein or the successors or assigns of the
CITY.
The prevailing party on any dispute (whether legal, equitable, or otherwise)
regarding the interpretation, enforcement, and respective rights and obligations under this
Performance Bond shall be entitled to recovery of reasonable attorneys' fees and costs
(including but not limited to consultant's and/or expert fees and costs).
As part of the obligation secured hereby, and in addition to the face amount
specified therefor, there shall be included costs and reasonable expenses and fees,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by CITY in successfully enforcing such
obligation, all to be taxed as costs and included in any judgment rendered.
