Property Suboect To This Agreement. All of the Property shall be subject to this Agreement. The Property may also be referred to hereinafter as "the site" or "the Project ". 3. Binding Effect. The burdens of this Agreement are binding upon, and the benefits of the Agreement inure to, each Party and each successive successor in interest thereto and constitute covenants that run with the Property. Whenever the terms "City" and "Developer" are used herein, such terms shall include every successive successor in interest thereto, except that the term "Developer" shall not include the purchaser or transferee of any lot within the Project that has been fully developed in accordance with the Project Approvals and this Agreement. 3.1. Constructive Notice and Acceptance. Every person who acquires any right, title or interest in or to any portion of the Property except any lot within the Project that has been fully developed in accordance with the Project Approvals and this Agreement shall be, conclusively deemed to have consented and agreed to be bound by this Agreement, whether or not any reference to the Agreement is contained in the instrument by which such person acquired such right, title or interest. Ordinance No. 355 Page 7 3.2. Release Upon Transfer. Upon the sale or transfer of any of Developer's interest in any portion of the Property, that Developer shall be released from its obligations with respect to the portion so sold or transferred subsequent to the operative date of the sale or transfer, provided that the Developer (i) was not in breach of this Agreement at the time of the sale or transfer and (ii) prior to the sale or transfer, delivered to City a written assumption agreement, duly executed by the purchaser or transferee and notarized by a notary public, whereby the purchaser or transferee expressly assumes the obligations of Developer under this Agreement with respect to the sold or transferred portion of the Property.

Development of the Property. The following provisions shall govern the subdivision, development and use of the Property. 4.1. Permitted Uses. The permitted and conditionally permitted uses of the Property shall be limited to those that are allowed by the Project Approvals and this Agreement. 4.2. Development Standards.

Ordinance No. 355 Page 8 4.4. Reservations and Dedications. All reservations and dedications of land for public purposes that are applicable to the Property are set forth in the Project Approvals and this Agreement. 5. Vesting of Development Rights. 5.1. Timing of Development. In Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo, 37 Cal.3d 465 (1984), the California Supreme Court held that the failure of the parties therein to provide for the timing or rate of development resulted in a later- adopted initiative restricting the rate of development to prevail against the parties' agreement. City and Developer intend to avoid the result in Pardee by acknowledging and providing that Developer shall have the right, without obligation, to develop the Property in such order and at such rate and times as Developer deems appropriate within the exercise of its subjective business judgment. In furtherance of the Parties intent, as set forth in this section, no future amendment of any existing City ordinance or resolution, or future adoption of any ordinance, resolution or other action, that purports to limit the rate or timing of development over time or alter the sequencing of development phases, whether adopted or imposed by the City Council or through the initiative or referendum process, shall apply to the Property provided the Property is developed in accordance with the Project Approvals and this Agreement. Nothing in this section shall be construed to limit City's right to insure that Developer timely provides all infrastructure required by the Project Approvals, Subsequent Approvals, and this Agreement. 5.2. Amendment of Project Approvals. No amendment of any of the Project Approvals, whether adopted or approved by the City Council or through the initiative or referendum process, shall apply to any portion of the Property, unless the Developer has agreed in writing to the amendment. 5.3. Issuance of Subsequent Approvals. Applications for land use approvals, entitlements and permits, including without limitation subdivision maps (e.g. tentative, vesting tentative, parcel, vesting parcel, and final maps), subdivision improvement agreements and other agreements relating to the Project, lot line adjustments, preliminary and final planned development permits, use permits, design review approvals (e.g. site plans, architectural plans and landscaping plans), encroachment permits, and sewer and water connections that are necessary to or desirable for the development of the Project (collectively "the Subsequent Approvals "; individually "a Subsequent Approval ") shall be consistent with the Project Ordinance No. 355 Page 9 Approvals and this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, Subsequent Approvals do not include building permits. Subsequent Approvals shall be governed by the Project Approvals and by the applicable provisions of the Moorpark General Plan, the Moorpark Municipal Code and other City ordinances, resolutions, rules, regulations, policies, standards and requirements as most recently adopted or approved by the City Council or through the initiative or referendum process and in eff ect at the time that the application for the Subsequent Approval is deemed complete by City (collectively "City Laws "), except City Laws that: (a) change any permitted or conditionally permitted uses of the Property from what is allowed by the Project Approvals; (b) limit or reduce the density or intensity of the Project, or any part thereof, or otherwise require any reduction in the number of proposed buildings or other improvements from what is allowed by the Project Approvals. (c) limit or control the rate, timing, phasing or sequencing of the approval, development or construction of all or any part of the Project in any manner, provided that all infrastructure required by the Project Approvals to serve the portion of the Property covered by the Subsequent Approval is in place or is scheduled to be in place prior to completion of construction; (d) are not uniformly applied on a City -wide basis to all substantially similar types of development projects or to all properties with similar land use designations; (e) control residential rents; (f) prohibit or regulate development on slopes with grades greater than 20 percent, including without limitation Moorpark Municipal Code Chapter 17.38 or any successor thereto, within the Property; or (g) modify the land use from what is permitted by the City's General Plan Land Use Element at the operative date of this Agreement or that prohibits or restricts the establishment or expansion of urban services including but not limited to community sewer systems to the Project. Ordinance No. 355 Page 10 5.4. Term of Subsequent Approvals. The term of any Subsequent Approval or other agreements relating to the Project, shall be one year; provided that the term may be extended by the decision maker for two (2) additional one (1) year periods upon application of the Developer holding the Subsequent Approval filed with City's Community Development Department prior to the expiration of that Subsequent Approval. Each such Subsequent Approval shall be deemed inaugurated, and no extension shall be necessary, if a building permit was issued and the foundation received final inspection by City's Building Inspector prior to the expiration of that Subsequent Approval. It is understood by City and Developer that certain Subsequent Approvals may not remain valid for the term of this Agreement. Accordingly, throughout the term of this Agreement, any Developer shall have the right, at its election, to apply for a new permit to replace a permit that has expired or is about to expire. 5.5. Modification of Approvals. Throughout the term of this Agreement, Developer shall have the right, at its election and without risk to or waiver of any right that is vested in it pursuant to this section, to apply to City for modifications to Project Approvals and Subsequent Approvals. The approval or conditional approval of any such modification shall not require an amendment to this Agreement, provided that, in addition to any other findings that may be required in order to approve or conditionally approve the modification, a finding is made that the modification is consistent with this Agreement and does not alter the permitted uses, density, intensity, maximum height, size of buildings or reservations and dedications as contained in the Project Approvals. 5.6. Issuance of Building Permits. No Building Permit shall be unreasonably withheld or delayed from Developer. In addition, no Final Building Permit final inspection or certificate of occupancy will be unreasonably withheld or delayed from Developer if all infrastructure required by the Project Approvals, Subsequent Approvals, and this Agreement to serve the portion of the Property covered by the Final Building Permit is in place or is scheduled to be in place prior to completion of construction and all of the other relevant provisions of the Project Approvals, Subsequent Approvals and this Agreement have been satisfied. Consistent with section 5.1 of this Agreement, in no event shall building permits be allocated on any annual numerical basis or on any arbitrary allocation basis. Ordinance No. 355 Page 11 5.7. Moratorium on Development. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent City, whether by the City Council or through the initiative or referendum process, from adopting or imposing a moratorium on the processing and issuance of Subsequent Approvals and building permits and on the finalizing of building permits by means of a final inspection or certificate of occupancy, provided that the moratorium is adopted or imposed (i) on a City -wide basis to all substantially similar types of development projects and properties with similar land use designations and (ii) as a result of a utility shortage or a reasonably foreseeable utility shortage including without limitation a shortage of water, sewer treatment capacity, electricity or natural gas. 6. Developer Agreements. 6.1. Developer shall comply with (i) this Agreement, (ii) the Project Approvals, (iii) all Subsequent Approvals for which it was the applicant or a successor in interest to the applicant and (iv) the MMRP of the MND and any subsequent or supplemental environmental actions. Developer agrees not to apply for any institutional uses on the Property. The clubhouse and leasing offices are not considered to be institutional uses. 6.2. All lands and interests in land dedicated to City shall be free and clear of liens and encumbrances other than easements or restrictions that do not preclude or interfere with use of the land or interest for its intended purpose, as reasonably determined by City. 6.3. As a condition of the issuance of a building permit for each residential use within the boundaries of the Property, Developer shall pay City a development fee as described herein (the "Development Fee "). The Development Fee may be expended by City in its sole and unfettered discretion. The amount of the Development Fee shall be Ten - Thousand Eight- Hundred Seventy -Four Dollars ($10,874.00) per residential unit. The fee shall be adjusted annually commencing July 1, 2008 by the larger increase of a) or b) as follows: a) The Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase shall be determined by using the information provided by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, for all urban consumers within the Los Angeles /Riverside /Orange County metropolitan area during the prior year. The calculation shall be made using the month of October over the prior October. b) The calculation shall be made to reflect the change in the Caltrans Highway Bid Price Index for Selected California Construction Ordinance No. 355 Page 12 Items for the twelve (12) month period available on December 31 of the preceding year. In the event there is a decrease in both of the referenced Index for any annual indexing, the Development Fee shall remain at its then current amount until such time as the next subsequent annual indexing which results in an increase. 6.4. As a condition of the issuance of building permit for each residential use within the boundaries of the Property, Developer shall pay City a traffic mitigation fee as described herein ( "Citywide Traffic Fee "). The Citywide Traffic Fee may be expended by City in its sole and unfettered discretion. The amount of the Citywide Traffic Fee shall be Five Thousand Seventy - Five Hundred Dollars ($5,075.00) per residential unit. Commencing on July 1, 2008, and annually thereafter, the contribution amount shall be increased to reflect the change in the Caltrans Highway Bid Price Index for Selected California Construction Items for the twelve (12) month period available on December 31 available on December 31 of the preceding year ( "annual indexing "). In the event there is a decrease in the referenced Index for any annual indexing, the current amount of the fee shall remain until such time as the next subsequent annual indexing which results in an increase. 6.5. [THIS SECTION INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK.] 6.6. On the operative date of this Agreement, Developer shall pay all outstanding City processing costs related to preparation of this Agreement, Project Approvals, and MND. 6.7.

The amount of the Park Fee shall be Four - Thousand Nine - Hundred Eighty -One Dollars ($4,981.00) for each residential dwelling unit within the Property.

Ordinance No. 355 Page 13 b) The calculation shall be made to reflect the change in the Caltrans Highway Bid Price Index for Selected California Construction Items for the twelve (12) month period available on December 31 of the preceding year. In the event there is a decrease in both of the referenced Indices for any annual indexing, the Park Fee shall remain at its then current amount until such time as the next subsequent annual indexing which results in an increase. Developer agrees that the above - described payments shall be deemed to satisfy the parkland dedication requirement set forth at California Government Code Section 66477 et seq. for the Property. 6.8. Provided that prior to the approval by City of the utility plans for RPD 2004 -06, , Ventura County Waterworks District No. 1 or any successor entity confirms that it has suff icient recycled water to serve the public and community owned landscaped areas within RPD 2004 -06, then Developer shall construct appropriately sized water lines, pumping facilities, and storage facilities for recycled water consistent with the requirements of the City, Waterworks District No. 1 and Calleguas Water District.

The recycled water line(s) shall be installed for each City approved phase of development of the Project, and the recycled water shall be in use prior to the first occupancy approval for each City approved phase of the Project. Developer shall install dual water meters and services for all locations in the Project determined necessary by City at its sole discretion to insure that both potable and recycled water are available where restroom and drinking fountains are planned. 6.9. Developer agrees that densities vested and incentives and concessions received in the Project Approvals include all densities available as density bonuses and all incentives and concessions to which Developer is entitled under the Moorpark Municipal Code and Government Code Sections 65915 through 65917.5; Developer shall not be entitled to further density bonuses or incentives or concessions and further agrees, in consideration for the density bonus obtained through the Project Ordinance No. 355 Page 14 Approvals that is greater than would otherwise be available, to guarantee the affordability of forty (40) rental units (16 for very low income households and 24 for low income households) for the life of the Project. These forty (40) affordable units shall be rented to eligible tenants as shown in the table below. If City- Issued bonds are issued by City, at its sole discretion, through an "Inducement Resolution" and after a Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) hearing and used by Developer for the Project, then Developer will be deemed to have a "City Issued Bond Financed Project," in which case, in addition to the aforementioned forty (40) units, Developer shall provide ten (10) additional units for moderate income households for the life of the Project as provided in the table below. Unit Type 1 Bedroom 2 Bedroom 2 Bedroom 3 1 Bath 1 Bath ' 2 Bath i Bedroom Moderate (for a City Issued City- Issued Bond 1 4 5 Financed Project only) Low 11 4 8 1 Very Low 8 2 5 1 TOTAL 19 6 13 2 TOTAL 19 7 17 7 (for a City Issued Bond Financed Project ) Four (4) of the nineteen (19) one - bedroom one bath affordable Low and Very Low Income units shall be handicap accessible and shall be reserved for and occupied by persons eligible for such accommodations, to the extent there is a qualified handicapped affordable person ready to occupy such unit. Should there be a qualified low or very low income prospective tenant desiring to rent such units but all such units are rented, Developer shall add such prospective tenant to the waiting list for such affordable handicap accessible units. At the earliest possible time a Ordinance No. 355 Page 15 low or very low income non - handicap affordable unit becomes available, the non - handicapped affordable tenant who occupies the affordable handicap unit shall be relocated to another affordable unit in order to allow the qualified handicap tenant to occupy the handicap accessible unit. Developer shall include a provision in the non - handicap affordable lease that the non - handicap affordable tenant agrees to be relocated, at Developer cost, as soon as a non - handicap unit becomes available. Low income households shall meet the criteria of sixty percent (60 %) or less of median income for Ventura County. Very low income households shall meet the criteria of 50 percent (50 %) or less of median income for Ventura County. For a City Issued Bond Financed Project, households for moderate income units shall meet the criteria of one hundred twenty percent (120 %) or less of median income, low sixty percent (60 %) and /or very low income fifty percent (50 %) or less of median income. The aforementioned forty (40) units (fifty units if it's a City Issued Bond Financed Project, including the additional ten units to be for moderate income tenants) are collectively referred to as the affordable housing units or affordable units. The household income limit, affordability thresholds and the affordable rent for very low income and low income affordable units (and moderate income affordable units in the event of a City Issued Bond Financed Project), may, if required by the issuer of any such bonds, be based on an income equal to or less than (but in no event greater than) the amounts stated in this paragraph, in accordance with the provisions of the Affordable Housing Agreement executed for the Project. Developer further agrees that no grading permit shall be issued and no TEFRA hearing shall be scheduled until the Affordable Housing Agreement is executed by City and Developer. The Affordable Housing Agreement shall include, but not be limited to all terms addressed in this section 6.9. In addition to the units referenced above, Developer agrees, at Developer's option, to either provide four (4) additional low income units during the term of the Affordable Housing Agreement, or to pay an in -lieu fee for any years during which the additional four (4) low income units are not continuously provided. The in -lieu fee shall be used by the City for any purposes, in the City's sole discretion. The in -lieu fee shall be Twenty Three Thousand Four Hundred Dollars ($23,400.00) if paid in calendar year 2008. ( "Initial In -lieu Fee Amount ") The annual in -lieu payment shall increase by two percent (2 %) each year above the prior year amount. In no event shall there be a decrease in the amount paid in any year compared to the prior year. Ordinance No. 355 Page 16 Payments shall be made on March 10 of each year beginning March 10, 2008, or the first March 10 of any year in which the Project is occupied with one or more residential units, whichever is later. 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 penalty equal to 10% 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. Payments received more then ten (10) days after the due date shall, in addition to the 10% penalty, accrue interest at a rate of 12% from the due date through and including 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 Developer to any other entity not owned in whole or in part by Developer, 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 County Assessor and not exempt from the payment of new property taxes. The calculation shall provide the City 0.08% (equivalent to $800.00 per $1 million of assessed value) of the assessed value or such higher percentage of the total new property taxes if the City portion has been increased by action of the State of California or by a statewide initiative or referendum. (For example, if the sale results in a value of $36,000,000.00 then the annual fee to the City would be $36,000,000.00 X .0008 = $28,800.00, or if the City portion of the property taxes has been increased to 0.09% by the State of California on a statewide initiative or referendum then the amount would be $32,400.00). In the event the payment to the City under this calculation would be less than the Initial In -lieu Fee Amount, inclusive of any 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 calculation in this paragraph would yield a higher annual fee. Developer agrees not to convert the Project to for -sale condominiums, community apartments, planned development, stock cooperative, or other common interest development, hotel /motel, or as congregate care or assisted living facility for the life of the Project. Developer further agrees it shall not permit any of the units (affordable and market rate) to be used on a transient basis and shall not rent any unit for a period of less than monthly. Developer agrees that the units used to house the qualified low and very low income tenants (and ten [10] units for qualified moderate income tenants if it's a City Issued Bond Financed Project) shall at all times and in all manner be the same as the market rate units including, but not limited to the quality and maintenance of flooring, window covers, Ordinance No. 355 Page 17 appliances, HVAC, storage space and type, and the number and location of required parking spaces. Developer further agrees that it has the obligation to provide the required number of affordable housing units as specified above regardless of the cost to acquire or construct said housing units. Developer further agrees that City has no obligation to use eminent domain proceedings to acquire any of the required affordable housing units and that this subsection 6.9 is specifically exempt from the requirements of subsection 7.2 of this Agreement. At no time shall any of the affordable units be rented to an employee, agent, officer, contractor, subcontractor, affiliated company or subsidiary of Developer. Developer shall pay an annual fee to City of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) to administer the affordability provisions and other requirements of the Affordable Housing Agreement. The fee shall be paid on or before February 1 of each year commencing after the first residential occupancy for the Project and adjusted annually commencing each subsequent January by the larger increase of a) or b) as follows: a. The CPI increase shall be determined by using the information provided by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, for all urban consumers within the Los Angeles /Riverside /Orange County metropolitan area during the prior year. The calculation shall be made using the month of October over the prior 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). Developer agrees City may at any time assign or transfer or substitute the Moorpark Redevelopment Agency for City relative to affordable housing matters, including the issuance of City- Issued Bonds.
