Re: Proposed Sale and Redevelopment Agreement – 3925, 3930 and 3944
Market Street (formerly W. 49-1/2 Street)
For the last six months, staff has been meeting with Buhl Investors/Saturday Properties to
negotiate the terms of a property sale and redevelopment agreement for parcels owned by the
Edina Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA). Staff has been assisted by special legal
counsel (Dorsey and Whitney) and public finance advisors (Ehlers Associates) in these
negotiations. Buhl Investors/Saturday Properties is the Preferred Development Partner that was
selected after interviewing three different teams who had responded to a Request for Proposal
(RFP) that was issued for the site in summer 2016.
The fundamental redevelopment goals are to improve public parking conditions while enhancing
street life and adding vitality of the business district. This proposal achieves those goals by
replacing an aging and unfriendly 1970’s-era parking structure with below-grade parking and an
expanded North Ramp that includes new commercial space on the street level. The proposal also
adds round-the-clock vitality by including 110 new apartment units and new commercial space
centered upon a new public plaza.
The Edina Planning Commission recommended approval of the project on April 5, 2017. The
project concept secured preliminary zoning approvals from the City Council on April 18, 2017 and
final land use approvals were granted on June 20, 2017. These land use approvals are contingent

upon execution of a Sale and Redevelopment Agreement mutually agreeable to Market Street LLC
and the Edina HRA. The City of Edina is also party to the Redevelopment Agreement.
After working collaboratively with the developer and their team of consultants, staff has reached
tentative agreement on the terms of the real estate transaction and Redevelopment Agreement.
These documents achieve a project that delivers each of the nine qualities on which the original
Request for Proposal measured success:
Measures of Success
(page 8 of RFP)
Summary
1) Compliance with height
restriction and minimized
impact to residential properties
north of the (3930 Market
Street) site
Yes – the 4-story height limit is maintained along the northerly
edge of the business district; additional height is limited to the
interior block where it has negligible impact to single-family
houses behind the North Parking Ramp
2) Assembly of adjacent or
nearby parcels
Yes, this proposal includes 8 parcels in addition to the
vacant parcel at 3930 Market St.
3) Anticipated growth in
taxable value
Yes, the project will return 7 parcels that are vacant or tax
exempt to the property tax rolls; there will be a
tremendous increase in the tax capacity of the
redeveloped parcels.
4) Creation of new public
parking
Yes, the aging Center Ramp will be replaced with new
underground parking in the same location and an
expansion of the North Ramp. A total of 439 new public
parking spaces will be constructed, increasing the existing
public parking by 129 stalls.
5) Creation of new
commercial space
Yes, approximately 35,000 Sq. Ft. of new Class A
commercial street will be constructed to bring new
opportunity to Market Street
6) Creation of new market
rate housing units
Yes, 110 new apartment units will be constructed to bring
new residents to the area; 10% of the units will be
affordably-priced
7) Creation of public plaza
or similar public areas
Yes, the proposal creates a new 5,900 Sq. Ft. public plaza
and a total of 34,000 Sq Ft of pedestrian circulation area
8) Reduction of existing curb Yes, this proposal eliminates one of the existing curb cuts

Summary
cuts and vehicle-pedestrian
conflict points
and channels pedestrians crossing the street to
designated routes
9) Capacity of team to
complete project
Yes, the developers bring development and management
experience and financial capital; their in-house strength is
supplemented by a team of professionals with expertise in
their field and local knowledge of Edina and 50th and France
The Edina Housing and Redevelopment Authority has reviewed the progress of the negotiations
regularly and met in closed session on June 20, 2017 to discuss the final terms of the proposed
real estate transaction. The complete Redevelopment Agreement and a summary of the key terms
are attached. While the property is currently owned by the Edina HRA, this information is
provided to both the Edina HRA and the Edina City Council for discussion purposes. If approved,
both the City and the HRA will be party to various aspects of the Redevelopment Agreement.
Based on compliance with the goals of the RFP and input from community, staff believes the
redevelopment strategy will result in new public amenities and new commercial space that will
help 50th and France retain its place as a desirable and successful destination for Edina residents
as well as guests from throughout the Twin Cities.
Based on the significance of this project and the potential sale of real estate, a special meeting
with a Public Hearing has been scheduled for Tuesday June 27, 2017 at 7:00 PM at Edina City Hall.
Notices of this Special Meeting have been posted, published and mailed to nearby property
owners.
Final consideration of the Proposed Sale and Redevelopment Agreement is requested after the
Public Hearing is conducted.
Staff recommends that the Redevelopment Agreement be approved. Staff and representatives
from Ehlers Associates and Dorsey & Whitney, the HRA’s advisors and counsel, will be available to
discuss the key terms of the Agreement and answer related questions.

REDEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
THIS REDEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered
into this __ day of June, 2017 (“Effective Date”), among the CITY OF EDINA, MINNESOTA,
a Minnesota statutory city (the “City”), the HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT
AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF EDINA, MINNESOTA, a public body corporate and
politic organized and existing under the laws of the State of Minnesota (the “Authority”) and
EDINA MARKET STREET LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company (the “the
Developer”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the capitalized terms used, but not defined, in these Recitals have the
meanings given in Article I of this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Authority owns the Project Area and has determined that the Project
Area is currently underutilized, with obsolete structures and physical arrangements, substantial
vacant areas and building vacancies, poor soils and potential contamination, inconsistent legal
restrictions on redevelopment and outdated and inadequate public infrastructure and circulation;
and
WHEREAS, the City and the Authority have determined that redevelopment of the
Project Area has been impeded by the difficulty of redevelopment without a consistent overall
plan ensuring compatible land uses; and
WHEREAS, the City and the Authority have determined that the Project Area offers
significant opportunity within the City to expand and enhance the pedestrian friendly,
commercial destination that is the 50th & France District; and
WHEREAS, the Authority has analyzed current land use in the Project Area, including a
building-by-building structural analysis, and after appropriate hearings and notices, the City
adopted findings and determined that the TIF District is in the public interest and is a
“redevelopment district” under the TIF Act; and
WHEREAS, the findings adopted by the City and the Authority include a determination
that the proposed redevelopment would not occur solely through private investment within the
reasonably foreseeable future and that the increased market value of the site that could
reasonably be expected to occur without the use of the tax increment financing would be less
than the increase in the market value estimated to result from the proposed development after
subtracting the present value of the project tax increments for the maximum duration of the TIF
District permitted by the TIF Plan, that the Redevelopment Plan conforms to the general plan for
the development or redevelopment of the City as a whole and that the Redevelopment Plan
affords maximum opportunity consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole, for the
development or redevelopment of the TIF District by private enterprise; and
WHEREAS, a component of the proposed Redevelopment Plan is to develop an area of
the City which is already built up, to provide employment opportunities, to improve the tax base
and to improve the general economy of the State; and
2
4847-5934-5479\16
WHEREAS, in order to achieve the objectives of the Redevelopment Plan and to
facilitate the development and construction of the Minimum Improvements the Developer has
proposed to purchase from the Authority, and the Authority has agreed to convey, pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement, certain land within the Project Area and redevelop the same by
demolishing and clearing existing blighted structures, and constructing the Minimum
Improvements, which include, without limitation, an approximately 110 unit apartment building,
approximately 33,500 square feet of integrated commercial elements, two levels of underground
parking, and a public plaza; and
WHEREAS, in order to achieve the objectives of the Redevelopment Plan, the
Developer, the City, and the Authority, and serve the Minimum Improvements and the greater
50th & France District, the Authority has agreed to construct and pay for the improvement and
expansion of an existing public parking ramp within the Project Area; and
WHEREAS, under TIF Act, the Authority is authorized to finance certain Qualified
Redevelopment Costs of a redevelopment project with tax increment revenues derived from a tax
increment financing district established within a redevelopment project area; and
WHEREAS, consistent with the TIF Act, the City and the Authority held public hearings
to consider the need and desirability for adoption of a tax increment financing plan and the
creation and establishment of the Project Area as a tax increment financing district pursuant to
the TIF Act, and determined that absent such authorization and the provision of certain funds to
undertake various qualified redevelopment activities, the redevelopment contemplated herein
would not be undertaken, and as a consequence the City and the Authority adopted a TIF plan
and established the Project Area as a redevelopment TIF district; and
WHEREAS, the Authority certified the TIF District pursuant to Section 9.1 of this
Agreement; and
WHEREAS, upon satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in this Agreement, the
Authority will issue the TIF Note subject to the conditions set forth in Article IX of this
Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the City and the Authority believe that the Project is in the best interests of

to negotiate in good faith with the Developer on mutually acceptable terms of a Construction
Management Agreement prior to retaining any other party as Construction Manager.
(b) Design.
(i) The design of the North Site Improvements will be as set forth in the Final
Development Plan. The Authority has retained the Architect for the design of the North
Site Improvements (“North Site Plans”). The North Site Plans will contain separate
scopes for (A) the design of the North Ramp Improvements (Initial) (“North Ramp
Improvements (Initial) Plans”) and (B) the design of the North Ramp Improvements
(Final) and the North Site Commercial Elements.
(ii) The Authority shall direct the Architect to develop to approximately
ninety (90) percent of final construction documents by (A) for the design of the North
Ramp Improvements (Initial) and (B) for the design of the North Ramp Improvements
(Final) and the North Site Commercial Elements no later than November 1, 2017 (the

4847-5934-5479\16
Elements to the respective lowest responsible bidder or bidders pursuant to the requirements of
Minnesota Statutes and City ordinances and policy.
(e) North Site Retail. As part of the North Site Improvements, the Authority will
cause the North Site Commercial Elements to be constructed to “gray box condition”. As used in
this term sheet “gray box condition” means completion of a water-tight structure with structural
roof and walls, roughed-in access to utilities and temporary doors and glazing, and excluding
slab on grade floor, utility services or connections, and interior and exterior finishes. Prior to the
issuance of the Certificate of Completion for the North Site Improvements, the Developer and
the Authority shall enter into a reciprocal operating agreement in connection with the integrated
construction the North Ramp Improvements and the North Site Retail Elements (the “North Site
Operating Easement”). The North Site Operating Easement must be recorded by the Developer
within seven (7) days after the North Site Operating Easement is delivered by the parties in
accordance with this Section.
Section 6.4 Financing the North Ramp Improvements. Subject to the contingencies
set forth in Section 6.5, the Authority will pay for the North Ramp Improvements as described in
this Section 6.4.
(a) Budget. The anticipated cost of the North Site Improvements is set forth in
Exhibit L (“North Site Budget”). The North Site Budget includes an estimated amount to
construct the North Site Commercial Element to “gray box condition” (the “North Site
Commercial Construction Cost”), which estimated amount will be paid by the Developer as
provided below.
(b) Sources of Funds of the North Site Commercial Element. The Authority will
notify the Developer of the date the Authority will Commence the North Site Improvements
(Initial). At the Land Transfer Closing for the South Site, the Developer will deposit in escrow
with Escrow Agent one hundred ten percent (110%) of the North Site Commercial Construction
Cost (“North Site Commercial Construction Deposit”) to finance the Authority’s construction of
the North Site Commercial Element. The North Site Commercial Construction Deposit will be
held and disbursed pursuant to the Disbursing Agreement. If after having exhausted all Cure
Rights, Authority has failed to Commence the North Ramp Improvements (Final) by the
commencement date set forth in Section 7.1, as the same may be extended as a result of
Unavoidable Delay, Escrow Agent will, upon written demand from Developer, disburse the
North Site Commercial Deposit to Developer. If at any time during the course of construction of
the North Site Improvements, the total of the unpaid disclosed cost of the North Site Commercial
Elements exceeds the amount of the undisbursed amount of the North Site Commercial
Construction Deposit, as calculated by subtracting the total amount previously disbursed by Title
Company from the original amount of the North Site Commercial Construction Deposit, the
Developer and City have agreed shall promptly meet and work together in good faith to
determine on a mechanism to deposit with Title Company the sum necessary to make the
available funds equal to the unpaid disclosed cost of the North Site Commercial Elements.
(c) Sources of Funds of the North Ramp Improvements. The Authority will make the
following funds available for the design and construction of the North Ramp Improvements in
accordance with the North Site Budget:
28
4847-5934-5479\16
(i) The net amount of the North Site Commercial Construction Deposit which
the Authority will deposit with Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 4.1.
(ii) The net amount of the South Site Purchase Price which the Authority will
deposit with Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 4.1.
(iii) Following deposit of the amounts in (i) and (ii) above, up to $4 million of
existing TIF revenue from the Centennial Lakes TIF District (“Centennial Lakes Funds”),
which the Authority will deposit with the Escrow Agent on a draw request basis
following expenditure of the North Site Purchase Price and South Site Purchase Price.
(iv) The net amount of the North Site Purchase Price which the Authority will
deposit with Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 4.1.
(d) Escrow and Disbursement. All sources of funds for the North Site Improvements
that are to be deposited with the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Section 6.4 shall be
deposited with and held by the Escrow Agent and disbursed for construction costs for the North
Site Improvements in accordance with a Disbursing Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit I.
(e) Budget Overruns. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
Developer will accept the Authority’s necessary decisions to value engineer the North Ramp
Improvements in order to not exceed the North Site Budget while maintaining all necessary
requirements of the Final Development Plan.
(f) Amendment to Final Development Plan. The Authority reserves the right to seek
an amendment to the Final Development Plan with respect to the North Site Improvements to
accommodate adjacent development needs; provided such amendment will not adversely affect
the Developer’s operation of or parking for the Minimum Improvements or reduce the square
footage of the North Site Commercial Elements from the square footage identified in the Final
Development Plan.
Section 6.5 North Ramp Improvements Contingencies.
The Authority has the obligation under this Agreement to construct the North Site
Improvements in accordance with this Article VI; provided, however, such obligation of the
Authority is expressly contingent upon, and the Authority will have no obligation to commence
construction of the North Ramp Improvements until, (a) the Developer has completed the Land
Transfer Closing for the South Site; (b) the Developer deposits the Retail Construction Deposit

Section 8.3 TIF Lookback.
(a) Generally. The financial assistance to the Developer under this Agreement is
based on certain assumptions regarding likely costs and expenses associated with constructing
the Minimum Improvements. Specifically, the maximum aggregate principal amount of the TIF
Note has been determined based on the amount of assistance needed to make the Project
financially feasible, as shown in the TIF Pro Forma attached as Exhibit F. The Authority and the
Developer agree that those assumptions will be reviewed at the times described in this Section,
and that the amount of Tax Increment assistance provided herein may be adjusted in accordance
with this Section.
(b) Lookbacks.
(i) Within thirty (30) days after a sale of any Element to a third party, the
Developer shall submit a certified cost and revenue analysis for the sale of that Element
to the Authority’s financial advisor (Ehlers & Associates or a different financial advisor
reasonably acceptable to the Authority) in the form of the TIF Pro Forma attached as
Exhibit F hereto and prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. This analysis will include, without limitation, all acquisition costs, Project
Redevelopment Costs, and all other improvements allocated to the Element subject to a
sale. The Developer agrees to provide to the Authority and the Authority’s consultant
any reasonable and relevant background documentation related to the financial data, upon
request. The Authority may retain an accountant to audit the submitted TIF Pro Forma, at
the Developer’s cost. In addition, within ninety (90) days from the fifteenth (15th)
anniversary of the Effective Date the Developer shall submit an updated TIF Pro Forma
31
4847-5934-5479\16
prepared in accordance with Section 8.3(b)(i) for all the Minimum Improvements,
including any Elements previously sold to a third party, as of such date, which will be
subject to the calculation of Project TIF Adjustment in Section 8.3(b)(iii).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all Elements are sold to a third party prior to the
fifteenth (15th) anniversary of the Effective Date, then the Developer will submit the
updated TIF Pro Forma specified in Section 8.3(b)(iii) within ninety (90) days of the sale
of the final Element. If so, the Authority will determine the Project Excess Percentage (if
any) following receipt of the updated TIF Pro Forma and forego the review otherwise
required following the fifteenth (15th) anniversary of the Effective Date.
(ii) The amount by which the actual IRR for a sale of an Element under
8.3(b)(i) or the actual IRR for all Minimum Improvements under 8.3(b)(ii), each as
shown in an updated TIF Pro Forma required under Section 8.3(b)(i), exceeds an IRR of
22.0% will be referred to as “Project Excess Percentage”. The Developer must pay an
amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Project Excess Percentage, up to a maximum
amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the TIF Note payments, to the Authority within
thirty (30) days from the date that the Authority and the Developer agree in writing to the
amount due to the Authority (the “Project TIF Adjustment”).

approved if:
(a) the assignee or transferee delivers to the Authority a written instrument
acknowledging the limited nature of the Authority’s payment obligations under the TIF Note;
and
(b) the assignee or transferee executes and delivers to the Authority a certificate, in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Authority, pursuant to which, among other

thereof;
(v) that in making its decision to acquire the Note, the assignee or transferee
has relied upon independent investigations made by the assignee or transferee and, to the
extent believed by such assignee or transferee to be appropriate, the assignee’s or
transferee’s representatives, including its own professional, tax and other advisors, and
has not relied upon any representation or warranty from the Authority, or any of its
officers, employees, agents, affiliates or representatives, with respect to the value of the
Note;
(vi) that the Authority has not made any warranty, acknowledgment or
covenant, in writing or otherwise, to the assignee or transferee regarding the tax
consequences, if any, of the acquisition and investment in the Note;
(vii) that the assignee or transferee or its representatives have been given a full
opportunity to examine all documents and to ask questions of, and to receive answers

investment in the Note and has determined that the Note is a suitable investment for the
assignee or transferee in light of such party’s overall financial condition and prospects;

federal securities laws because the Note is being acquired in a transaction not involving a
public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may
not be resold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except in
certain limited circumstances; and
(x) that no market for the Note exists and no market for the Note is intended

Section 9.6 Affordable Housing.
34
4847-5934-5479\16
(a) The Developer covenants that at least ten percent (10%) of the residential units
within the Apartment Element will remain affordable to certain low-income persons and
households for a period of fifteen (15) years commencing on the date a Certificate of Completion
is issued for the South Site Vertical Improvements. Half of these units (rounded up to the next
whole number if the number of these units is an odd number) will be leased at rates that are
considered affordable to individuals or households earning less than 60% of the U.S. Department
of Housing and Urban Development’s (“HUD”) Area Median Income for the Minneapolis-Saint
Paul-Bloomington Metropolitan Statistical Area (“AMI”) and the remainder of these units will
be leased at rates that are considered affordable to individuals or households earning less than
50% of the AMI, as specified by a document to be recorded against the South Site in the form
shown in Exhibit I (“Affordability Covenant”). The lease rates of affordable units will be based
on the most current housing affordability data published by HUD. Two (2) of the affordable units
will be two-bedroom units with a minimum of one thousand (1,000) square feet each and the
remainder of the affordable units will be one-bedroom units with a minimum of six hundred fifty
(650) square feet each. The two-bedroom units must be leased to households consisting of at
least two members. The City will make available to the residents of the affordable units the
option to purchase an overnight parking license for at least one (1) parking stall per affordable
unit at a below-market rate (anticipated to be approximately $50.00 per month), with such stalls
to be located in the North Ramp. The level of finish within the affordable units must be
consistent with the level of finish within new construction, market rate apartments in the Twin
Cities metropolitan area; and contain at least the following features: (1) Stainless steel energy
star kitchen appliances; (2) solid-surface (granite or quartz) countertops; ( 3) “luxury vinyl tile”
flooring in living areas and bathrooms; (4) carpeted flooring in bedrooms; (5) fiberglass
tub/shower surrounds; (6) energy efficient lighting; and (7) water-efficient plumbing fixtures.
During the term of the Affordability Covenant, Developer will not refuse to lease an affordable
unit to the holder of a voucher or certificate of eligibility under Section 8 of the United States
Housing Act of I937 solely because of the status of the prospective tenant as such a holder.
(b) The Developer has represented that there is a financing gap for the Minimum
Improvements related to the Affordability Covenant (the “Affordable Housing Gap”). The
Authority will fund up to $1,600,000.00 of the Affordable Housing Gap with a fifteen (15) year
loan to the Developer from the Authority’s affordable housing fund pursuant to the terms and
conditions of the Affordable Housing Loan Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit M,
provided Developer delivers to the Authority a current TIF Pro Forma sufficient to allow the
City and the Authority to find that the Developer has a demonstrated need for additional
financial assistance to fund the Affordable Housing Gap. The parties hereto acknowledge that the
Authority intends to fund fifty percent (50%) of such loan through the sale of one or more
participating interests in the loan to other nonprofit or public loan participants; provided,
however, the sale of such participating interests shall not be a condition precedent to the
Authority funding the entire $1,600,000 loan pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the
Affordable Housing Loan Agreement. The terms of the loan will require a minimum annual
interest rate of one percent (1%) on the principal amount of the loan, calculated on a simple basis
for the term of the loan, with annual one percent (1%) interest payments on the principal balance
due on each anniversary date of the effective date of the Affordable Housing Loan Agreement.
On the maturity date of the loan (as specified in the Affordable Housing Loan Agreement), the
annual interest rate on the loan will be recalculated to be the lesser of (x) one percent (1%) plus
an amount equal to the average of the annual inflation rates (based on the Consumer Price Index)
35
4847-5934-5479\16
for each year during the term of the loan and (y) two and one-half percent (2.5%) (“Adjusted
Rate”). On such maturity date, Developer will repay the principal balance of loan and make a
final interest payment in an amount equal to annual simple interest on the loan at the Adjusted
Rate for the term of the loan less the minimum annual interest payments previously made by
Developer. The Parties acknowledge that the period of the Affordability Covenant specified in
(a) above may be extended by mutual agreement of the Parties.
Section 9.7 Developer/Authority Grant Applications. The Developer and the
Authority will cooperate in efforts to obtain available public grant funding to undertake the
Project, including but not limited to the Transit Oriented Development, Tax Base Revitalization
Account, and Livable Communities Demonstration Account grants from the Metropolitan
Council, Department of Employment and Economic Development funding for environmental
remediation, and any other funding from metropolitan, state, county and federal sources
identified by the Authority or the Developer as reasonably available. To the extent additional
grant funds not reflected in the TIF Pro Forma are obtained, the amount shall first fund any
unanticipated costs or revenue shortfalls of the Project then to reduce the principal amount of the
TIF Note. To the extent the funds from any of the sources identified in this Section 9.7 is less
than the amount shown in the TIF Pro Forma, the City or Authority will provide funds, from City
or Authority resources, up to five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000.00) to pay the costs of
items specified in the respective grant application.
ARTICLE X
MORTGAGE OF MINIMUM IMPROVEMENTS AREA
Section 10.1 Mortgage of the Minimum Improvements Area.
(a) Until the Completion Date, neither the Developer, nor any successor in interest to
the Developer, may engage in any financing or any other transaction creating any mortgage or
other security interest in or lien upon the Minimum Improvements Area, or portion thereof,
whether by express agreement or operation of law (a “Mortgage”), or suffer any Mortgage to be
made on or attach to the Minimum Improvements Area except for the purpose of obtaining funds
necessary for constructing the Minimum Improvements.
(b) This restriction on encumbrance shall terminate with respect to any Element of
the Minimum Improvements, upon the Completion for such Element. The Developer or any
successor in interest to the Minimum Improvements or portion thereof, may sell or engage in
financing or any other transaction creating a mortgage or encumbrance or lien on the Minimum
Improvements or portion thereof for which a Certificate of Completion has been obtained,
without obtaining the prior written approval of the Authority.
Section 10.2 Copy of Notice of Default to Mortgagee. If the Authority delivers any
notice or demand to the Developer, or any successor in interest to the Developer, with respect to
any Default under this Agreement, the Authority will use its best efforts to also deliver a copy of
such notice or demand to the mortgagee of any Mortgage at the address of such mortgagee
provided in the recorded Mortgage or any other address thereafter provided to the Authority in a
written notice from the Developer, any successor in interest to the Developer or the mortgagee,
36
4847-5934-5479\16
provided that failure of the Authority to give any such notice shall not limit the Authority’s
ability to exercise any of its remedies hereunder.
Section 10.3 Mortgagee’s Option to Cure Events of Default. Upon the occurrence of
a Default, the mortgagee under any Mortgage will have the right at its option, to cure or remedy
such Event of Default within the cure periods set forth herein.
Section 10.4 Rights of a Foreclosing Mortgage. Except as provided in Section 10.6,
an individual or entity who acquires title to all or a portion of the Minimum Improvements
through the foreclosure of a mortgage on or deed in lieu of foreclosure conveying such portion of
the Minimum Improvements Area remains subject to each of the restrictions set forth in this
Agreement and remains subject to all of the obligations of the Developer, or any successor in
interest to the Developer, under the terms of this Agreement, but neither the purchaser at a
foreclosure sale, the grantee under a deed in lieu of foreclosure, nor any subsequent transferee
from a mortgagee shall have no personal liability for a breach of such obligations under this
Agreement so long as:
(a) The party acquiring title through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure
observes all of the restrictions set forth in the Agreement;
(b) The party who acquired title through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure
does not undertake or permit any other party to undertake any Minimum Improvements on the
portion of the Minimum Improvements Area it owns;
(c) The City has no obligation to approve any plans for Minimum Improvements of a
portion of the Minimum Improvements the foreclosing mortgagee (or mortgagee obtaining a
deed in lieu of foreclosure) owns or to issue any related building permits.
The purpose of this Section is to permit a foreclosing lender (or mortgagee or purchaser
obtaining a deed in lieu of foreclosure or a subsequent transferee) to hold title to the portion of
the Minimum Improvements Area it acquires through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure,
subject to, but without personal liability for the obligations under this Agreement, until it can sell
the portion it holds to a third party who will assume the obligations of the Developer under the
terms of this Agreement and proceed with the construction of the Minimum Improvements
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. If, rather than passively holding title to the portion of
the Minimum Improvements Area it acquires through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure,
the foreclosing lender (or mortgagee obtaining a deed in lieu of foreclosure or subsequent
transferee) or other purchaser at a foreclosure sale desires to sell portions of the Minimum
Improvements Area for construction of the Minimum Improvements, the purchaser at the
foreclosure sale must assume and perform each of the obligations of the Developer, or the
applicable successor to the interest of the Developer, under this Agreement as to the portion of
the Project subject to foreclosure. This Section does not restrict the authority of the Authority to
pursue its rights under any outstanding security, exercise remedies otherwise available under this
Agreement or suspend the performance of the obligations of the Authority or the Developer
under this Agreement as otherwise allowed. The Authority agrees to reasonably cooperate with
any foreclosing lender (or mortgagee obtaining a deed in lieu of foreclosure) or other purchaser
at a foreclosure sale in pursuing the Minimum Improvements in accordance with this Agreement.
37
4847-5934-5479\16
Unless acting other than passively holding title as described above in this Section, a lender or an
independent third party that purchases at a foreclosure sale will have no liability for breach under
this Agreement.
Section 10.5 Defaults Under Mortgage. The Developer, or its successor or assign, will
use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an agreement from any mortgagee under a
Mortgage that in the event the Developer is in default under any Mortgage, the mortgagee will
use commercially reasonable efforts, within thirty (30) days after it becomes aware of any such
default and prior to exercising any remedy available to it due to such default, to notify the
Authority in writing of (i) the fact of default; (ii) the elements of default; and (iii) the actions
required to cure the default. The Developer, or its successor or assign, will use its commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain an agreement in any such Mortgage, that if, within the time period
required by the Mortgage, the Authority cures any default under the Mortgage, the mortgagee
will pursue none of its remedies under the Mortgage based on such default, provided that failure
of the Developer or its successors or assigns to obtain such an agreement from any such
mortgagee shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.
Section 10.6 Subordination of Agreement. The City and the Authority will, upon the
request of the holder of a Mortgage, execute and record a subordination agreement pursuant to
which the City and the Authority agree that, upon a default by the Developer under a Mortgage,
the holder of the Mortgage may elect, in an instrument to be recorded in the Hennepin County
land records and delivered to the City and the Authority before the commencement of
proceedings to foreclose the Mortgage, to either (1) treat this Agreement as being subordinate to
the lien of the Mortgage such that the foreclosure of the Mortgage and the failure to redeem from
such foreclosure will extinguish and terminate this Agreement and the TIF Note will
automatically be cancelled and rescinded; or (2) to treat this Agreement as having priority over
the Mortgage in which case this Agreement and the TIF Note will survive the foreclosure of the
Mortgage and this Agreement will be binding upon the holder of the Sheriff's Certificate issued
in conjunction with the foreclosure of the Mortgage. If the holder of the Mortgage fails to notify
the City and the Authority of its election under this Section 10.6 on or before the commencement
of foreclosure proceedings, the holder of the Mortgage shall be deemed to have elected to treat
this Agreement as being subordinate to the lien of the Mortgage such that the foreclosure of the
Mortgage and the failure to redeem from such foreclosure will extinguish and terminate this
Agreement and the TIF Note will automatically terminate. The City and Authority each further
agree that if the holder of a Mortgage elects to treat this Agreement as having priority over the
Mortgage, the City and Authority, upon the completion of the foreclosure without redemption,
agree that the time for the completion of the Minimum Improvements is extended to a date 12
months following the expiration of all applicable redemption periods.
ARTICLE XI
INSURANCE AND CONDEMNATION
Section 11.1 Insurance.
(a) The Developer, and its successors or assigns, shall obtain and continuously
maintain insurance on the Minimum Improvements and, from time to time at the request of the
38
4847-5934-5479\16
Authority, furnish proof to the Authority that the premiums for such insurance have been paid
and the insurance is in effect. The insurance coverage described below is the minimum insurance
coverage that the Developer must obtain and continuously maintain, provided that the Developer
shall obtain the insurance described in clause (i) below with respect to an Element prior to the
Commencement of construction of that Element and is only obligated to maintain the insurance
described in clause (i) with respect to an Element until the Developer receives a Certificate of
Completion for that Element:
(i) Builder’s risk insurance, written on the so-called “Builder’s Risk-
Completed Value Basis,” in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the
insurable value of the applicable Element at the date of completion, and with coverage
available in non-reporting form on the so-called “all risk” form of policy.
(ii) Comprehensive general liability insurance (including operations,
contingent liability, operations of subcontractors, completed operations and contractual
liability insurance) naming the Authority, and the City as an additional insured, with
limits against bodily injury and property damage of not less than $2,500,000 for each
occurrence (to accomplish the above-required limits, an umbrella excess liability policy
may be used), written on an occurrence basis.
(iii) Workers compensation insurance, for employees of the Developer if and
to the extent required by law.
(b) All insurance required in this Article shall be obtained and continuously
maintained by responsible insurance companies selected by the Developer or its successors that
are authorized under the laws of the State to assume the risks covered by such policies. If
available on commercially reasonable terms, each policy must contain a provision that the
insurer will not cancel nor modify the policy without giving written notice to the insured at least
thirty (30) days before the cancellation or modification becomes effective. Not less than fifteen
(15) days prior to the expiration of any policy, the Developer, or its successor or assign, must
renew the existing policy or replace the policy with another policy conforming to the provisions
of this Article. In lieu of separate policies, the Developer or its successor or assign, may maintain
a single policy, blanket or umbrella policies, or a combination thereof, having the coverage
required herein.
(c) The Developer, its successor or assign, agrees to notify the Authority promptly in
the case of damage exceeding $100,000 in amount to, or destruction of the Minimum
Improvements or any Element resulting from fire or other casualty.
Section 11.2 Condemnation. In the event that title to or possession of the Minimum
Improvements Area or the Minimum Improvements, or both, or any material part thereof, is
threatened with a taking through the exercise of the power of eminent domain, the Developer, or
its successor or assign, will notify the Authority of the threatened taking with reasonable
promptness.
39
4847-5934-5479\16
ARTICLE XII
THE DEVELOPER COVENANTS
Section 12.1 Maintenance and Operation of the Minimum Improvements. The
Developer, and its successors or assigns, will, at all times during the term of this Agreement,
maintain and operate the Minimum Improvements (or the applicable portion thereof) in a safe
and secure way and in compliance with this Agreement and all federal, state and local laws,
regulations, rulings and ordinances applicable thereto. The Developer, or its successors or
assigns, will pay all of the reasonable and necessary expenses of the operation and maintenance
of the Minimum Improvements (except as may be provided in the City Easements), including all
premiums for insurance insuring against loss or damage thereto and adequate insurance against
liability for injury to persons or property arising from the construction of the Minimum
Improvements as required pursuant to this Agreement. During construction of the Minimum
Improvements, the Developer, or its successors or assigns, shall not knowingly cause any person
working in or attending the Minimum Improvements for any purpose, or any tenant of the
Minimum Improvements, to be exposed to any hazardous or unsafe condition; provided that such
party shall not be in Default hereunder if it has required the contractors employed to perform
work on the Minimum Improvements to take such precautions as may be available to protect the
persons in and around the Minimum Improvements from hazards arising from the work, and has
further required each such contractor to obtain and maintain liability insurance protecting against
liability to persons for injury arising from the work. The expenses of operation and maintenance
of the Minimum Improvements shall be borne solely by the Developer, its successors or assigns.
Section 12.2 Business Subsidy Agreement. The Authority and the Developer have
determined that a business subsidy agreement within the meaning of the Minnesota Business
Subsidy Act, Minnesota Statutes, Sections 116J.993 through 116J.995 is not required in
accordance with the exception contained in the Minnesota Business Subsidy Act, Minnesota
Statutes, Section 116J.993, subd. 3(17), because the Developer’s investment in the purchase of
the Minimum Improvements Area and site preparation thereon is seventy percent (70%) or more
of the assessor’s current year’s estimated market value for the Minimum Improvements Area.
ARTICLE XIII
TRANSFER LIMITATIONS AND INDEMNIFICATION
Section 13.1 Representation as to the Minimum Improvements. The Developer
represents to the City and the Authority that its purchase of the Minimum Improvements Area,
and its other undertakings under this Agreement, are for the purpose of developing the Minimum
Improvements and not for the purpose of speculation in land holding. The Developer
acknowledges that, in view of the importance of the Minimum Improvements to the general
welfare of the City and the Authority, and the substantial financing and other public aids that
have been made available by the City and the Authority for the purpose of making such
Minimum Improvements possible, the qualifications and identity of the Developer are of
particular concern to the Authority. The Developer further acknowledges that the City and the
Authority are willing to enter into this Agreement with the Developer because of the
qualifications and identity of the Developer.
40
4847-5934-5479\16
Section 13.2 Limitations on Transfer. Until the issuance of a Certificate of
Completion for an Element:
(a) The Developer will not sell, assign, convey, lease or transfer in any other mode or
manner any of its right, title, and interest in and to this Agreement, all or any part of the
Minimum Improvements Area or the Minimum Improvements, without the express written
approval of the Authority, provided that the consent of the Authority shall not be required for
any of the following:
(i) granting of a mortgage or other security interests in the Minimum
Improvements as provided in Article X hereof; and
(ii) leasing the Minimum Improvements in the normal course of business in a
manner consistent with the Final Development Plan and the Development Contract.
If the Authority’s consent to a transfer is required pursuant to this Section 13.2, the Authority
shall be entitled to require, as conditions to its approval of any sale, assignment, conveyance, use
or transfer of any rights, title, and interest in and to this Agreement, the Minimum Improvements
Area or the Minimum Improvements that:
(1) Any proposed transferee shall not be exempt from the payment of
real estate taxes and shall have the qualifications and financial responsibility, as
determined by the Authority, necessary and adequate to fulfill the obligations
undertaken in this Agreement by the Developer;
(2) Any proposed transferee, by instrument in writing satisfactory to
the Authority and in form recordable among the land records shall, for itself and
its successors and assigns, and expressly for the benefit of the Authority have
expressly assumed all of the obligations of the Developer (or such obligations of
the Developer as are applicable to the portion of the Minimum Improvements
acquired) under this Agreement and agree to be subject to all the conditions and
restrictions to which the Developer is subject; and
(3) The transferee must demonstrate, in a manner satisfactory to the
City and the Authority, its ability to perform all assumed obligations in this
Agreement.
(b) In the absence of specific written agreement by the City and the Authority to the
contrary, neither the transfer of an Element prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Completion
for that Element or the City’s or the Authority’s consent to such a transfer will relieve the
Developer or any other party bound in any way by this Agreement from their obligations under
this Agreement.
Section 13.3 Indemnification.
(a) The Developer releases and covenants and agrees that the City Parties shall not be
liable for and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the City Parties against any loss or damage
to property or any injury to or death of any person occurring at or about or resulting from any
41
4847-5934-5479\16
defect in the Minimum Improvements constructed by the Developer to the extent not attributable
to the negligence or intentional misconduct of the City Parties.
(b) Except for negligence or intentional misconduct of the City Parties, the Developer
agrees to indemnify the City Parties, now and forever, and further agrees to hold the aforesaid
harmless from any claims, demands, suits, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees),
actions or other proceedings whatsoever by any person or entity whatsoever arising or
purportedly arising from the actions or inactions of the Developer (or other persons acting under
its direction or control) under this Agreement, including without limitation the Developer’s
acquisition and construction, installation, ownership, and operation of the Minimum
Improvements.
Section 13.4 Limitation. All covenants, stipulations, promises, agreements and
obligations of the City, the Authority or the Developer contained in this Agreement shall be
deemed to be the covenants, stipulations, promises, agreements and obligations of the City, the
Authority and the Developer, and not of any governing body member, officer, agent, servant or
employee of the City, the Authority or the Developer in the individual capacity thereof.
ARTICLE XIV

the filing thereof; or a receiver, trustee or liquidator of the Developer, or of the Minimum
Improvements, or part thereof, shall be appointed in any proceeding brought against the
Developer, and shall not be discharged within ninety (90) days after such appointed, or if the
Developer shall consent to or acquiesce in such appointment.
Section 14.3 City and Authority Events of Default. Subject to Unavoidable Delays,
the failure of the City or the Authority to observe or perform any covenant, condition, obligation
or agreement on its part to be observed or performed under this Agreement, and the continuation
of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice of such failure from any party
hereto shall be an Event of Default by the City or the Authority, as applicable.
Section 14.4 Cure Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Default reasonably
requires more than thirty (30) days to cure, such Default shall not constitute an Event of Default,
provided that the curing of the Default is promptly commenced upon receipt by the defaulting
party of the notice of the Default, and with due diligence is thereafter continuously prosecuted to
completion and is completed within a reasonable period of time, and provided that the defaulting
party keeps the non-defaulting party well informed at all times of its progress in curing the
Default; provided in no event shall such additional cure period extend beyond 365 days.

Section 14.6 City Remedies on Developer Events of Default. Whenever any Event of

Agreement, including an action for specific performance.
Section 14.8 No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to
the City, the Authority or the Developer is intended to be exclusive of any other available
remedy or remedies unless otherwise expressly stated, but each and every such remedy shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Agreement or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. 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 thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often
as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Authority, the City or the Developer to
exercise any remedy reserved to it, it shall not be necessary to give notice, other than such notice
as may be required in this Article XIV.

waive their right to a jury trial on the issues of who is the prevailing party and the reasonable
amount of attorneys’ fees and costs to be awarded to the prevailing party. Those issues will be
decided by the trial judge upon motion by one or both parties, such motion to be decided based
on the record as of the end of the jury trial augmented only by the testimony and/or affidavits
44
4847-5934-5479\16
from the attorneys and their staff. The parties agree that, subject to the trial judge’s discretion,
the intent of this clause is to have all issues related to the award of attorneys’ fees and costs
decided by the trial judge as quickly as practicable.

respect for such inconsistent provisions, neither agreement is intended to amend or supersede the

Agreement, it is specifically understood and agreed, such agreement being the primary

conditions in this Agreement; (b) the Developer and the City and the Authority waive all claims,

terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement to be performed by either party; and (c) the
Developer and the City or the Authority, as the case may be, shall look solely to the assets of the
other party for the satisfaction of each and every remedy in the Event of Default by any party, as
47

the case may be, of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement such
exculpation of liability to be absolute and without any exception whatsoever.
Section 15.16 Estoppel Certificates. Either party shall, at any time and from time to
time, upon not less than twenty (20) days prior written request from the other, execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the requesting party, in form reasonably satisfactory to the

Event of Default hereunder and, to the best of such party’s knowledge, no event has occurred or
condition exists which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute
an Event of Default hereunder, and (iii) such other accurate information as may be reasonably
requested by the requesting party.

together with the Plaza Premises, collectively the “Easement Premises”), all in accordance with
and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Access Premises include only
those portions of the South Site necessary to access the Plaza Premises.
Article II
TERM
Section 2.1 Term. The easements granted hereby, and each reservation, covenant,
condition and restriction contained in this Agreement, shall be effective as of the date hereof,
shall be perpetual, and shall remain in effect until affirmatively released by the City. Such
release shall be evidenced by the recording of a release or termination of this Agreement in the
real estate records of Hennepin County, Minnesota, at which time this Agreement shall
terminate, subject to reconciliation of expenses and obligations incurred through the date of
release or termination and the continuation of those provisions that specifically survive
termination of this Agreement, and the Market Street Plaza and any other areas of the Easement
Premises shall thereafter belong to and be under the sole control of Developer.
Article III
USE OF EASEMENT PREMISES
Section 3.1 Operation and Control of Market Street Plaza. During the term of this
Agreement, the City shall operate the Market Street Plaza, in accordance with this Agreement
and all applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations and orders, at its own cost. Subject
to the terms of this Agreement, the City shall have full authority and control over the
management, operation, and use of the Market Street Plaza. Except as specifically set forth
herein, the City shall be entitled to make all decisions and to execute all agreements, in its sole
discretion, with respect to the Market Street Plaza so long as such decisions and agreements do
B-4
4847-5934-5479\16
not (i) violate the provisions of this Agreement, the Contract, the approved Final Development
Plan, or any applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations or orders, as each of the
foregoing may be amended and so long as each of the foregoing remains in effect, or (ii)
unreasonably disturb the users and occupants of the South Site Vertical Improvements, including
the Apartment Element. The City may establish (and modify from time to time) (a) such hours of
operation, rules, and regulations as it deems advisable, necessary, or appropriate in the City’s
reasonable discretion for the safe, efficient, and orderly use and operation of the Market Street
Plaza and (b) such rates and charges for the use of the Market Street Plaza as it deems advisable
or desirable in the City’s reasonable discretion. The City shall be entitled to keep and retain as its
own property all income and revenue produced from the operation and use of the Market Street
Plaza during the term of this Agreement and shall have no obligation to report to or account to
the Developer for any such income or revenue. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to
the contrary, the Market Street Plaza shall be open to the public as provided in the Contract.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, owners, tenant and subtenants of the
South Site Commercial Elements may make reasonable use of such portions of the Easement
Premises which are immediately adjacent to entrances and storefronts of such South Site
Commercial Elements for the purpose of placing non-permanent moveable items such as
planters, benches, removable advertising signs, and seasonal decorations, provided that such
items do not unreasonably obstruct or impair the public’s use of the Easement Premises or the
free flow of pedestrian traffic thereon, each as determined by the City in its reasonable
discretion. Furthermore, the City acknowledges and agrees that certain portions of the ground
level, pedestrian surfaces of the South Site Vertical Improvements, which areas are each depicted
on Exhibit B hereto and identified thereon as an “Area of Potential Private Use” (collectively, the
“Areas of Potential Private Use”) may be withdrawn from the Easement Premises by Developer
and reserved for the private use of the owners, tenants, and subtenants of the South Site
Commercial Elements or the Apartment Element. Such Areas of Potential Private Use so
withdrawn from the Easement Premises and reserved for private use may be used for any legal
use, including, without limitation, outdoor dining, outdoor bar, seating area or dog run. The City
acknowledges that the Developer may desire to modify the Areas of Potential Private Use from
time to time (and consequently modify the Easement Premises) based on changing uses and
tenancies of the South Site Commercial Elements. The City agrees to consider any such
requested modifications to the Areas of Potential Private Use and the Easement Premises, and if
such modification does not (x) cause the overall gross square footage of the original Plaza
Premises to be reduced by more than five percent (5%) (in the aggregate for all requested
modifications) or (y) in the City’s reasonable discretion, materially and adversely diminish the
public use or benefit intended to be derived from the Market Street Plaza and this Agreement, the
City will enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such modification.
Section 3.2 Waste; Nuisance. Neither the City nor the Developer shall knowingly or
willfully commit or suffer to be committed any waste or damage in or upon the Easement
Premises, or any disfigurement or injury to any improvements hereafter erected or located upon
the Easement Premises, or any part thereof, or the fixtures and/or equipment thereof. The City in
its use and occupancy of the Easement Premises, shall not knowingly and willfully commit or
suffer to be committed any act or thing which constitutes a nuisance. Usual and normal wear and
tear, damage by the elements, unavoidable casualty or depreciation and diminution over time
shall not be considered “waste,” “nuisance,” “damage,” “disfigurement,” or “injury.”

to time, select and hire one or more third parties to perform each party’s respective Maintenance
Work, provided that each of the City and the Developer shall remain responsible at all times for
the performance of each such party’s respective Maintenance Work. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, to the extent that any Maintenance Work is required due to (a)
damage or destruction caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of the City, the Developer,
or their respective employees or agents, or (b) the failure of a party to comply with the 50th &
France Maintenance Policy or the O&M Plan, the cost and responsibility for the repair of such
damage or destruction shall be borne by the party whose negligence or willful misconduct caused
such damage or destruction or failed to comply with the 50th & France Maintenance Policy or
the O&M Plan.
Section 4.5 50th & France District Maintenance Assessments. The Developer
acknowledges and agrees that nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to limit the City’s right

District commercial area maintenance assessments, including assessments levied upon property
owned by the Developer, all as specified and in accordance with the City Code.
Section 4.6 Liens. Neither the City nor the Developer will not permit any mechanic’s
or materialmen’s liens to stand against the Easement Premises on account of improvements
authorized by the City or the Developer, as the case may be, (and will promptly discharge (by
payment, bonding over or otherwise) the same upon their occurrence); provided, however, the
City or Developer, as applicable, may in good faith and at its expense contest any such lien in
which event such lien may remain undischarged and unsatisfied during the contest and any
appeal, provided the City or Developer, as applicable, shall file a bond or deposit cash or other
reasonable security in the amount of such lien with the court or with a mortgagee of the Market
Street Plaza to secure the payment of such lien if finally determined to be valid.
Article V

Street Plaza to be separately metered and City will pay, or cause to be paid, when the same
become due, all charges for water, sewer usage, storm water, gas, electricity, power, heat,

Article VI

Section 6.1 Payment of Taxes and Assessments. Developer shall pay, or cause to be
paid, before becoming delinquent, all real estate taxes, charges, assessments, and levies
(collectively “Taxes”), assessed and levied by any governmental taxing authority during the term
of this Agreement against the Market Street Plaza. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the
Market Street Plaza is ever subdivided such that it becomes a separate tax parcel and such parcel
is deemed to be subject to Taxes, or (ii) records of the tax assessor provide reasonable evidence
that the Market Street Plaza is deemed to be subject to Taxes, the City shall pay directly to the
relevant taxing authority any such Taxes.
Article VII
INDEMNIFICATION, INSURANCE, IMMUNITIES
Section 7.1 Property Insurance. At all times during the term hereof, the Developer at
its initial cost and expense, shall keep the South Site Vertical Improvements (including the
Market Street Plaza), and all alterations, extensions, and improvements thereto and replacements
thereof, insured, in the amount of the full replacement cost thereof and with such deductibles as
the Developer deems appropriate, against loss or damage by fire and against those casualties
covered by extended coverage insurance and against vandalism and malicious mischief and
against such other risks, of a similar or dissimilar nature, as are customarily covered with respect
to buildings and improvements similar in construction, general location, use, and occupancy to
the South Site Vertical Improvements. The City shall pay within sixty (60) days following
receipt of Developer’s invoice therefor, an amount equal to the cost of such insurance which is
directly attributable to the Market Street Plaza, taking into account the use, nature, and/or value
of the Market Street Plaza (and not merely as a percentage of the total of such insurance costs) as
reasonably determined by the parties and the applicable insurer.
Section 7.2 Indemnification of Developer. Except to the extent caused by the willful
misconduct or negligence of the Developer or its employees or agents, or arising out of the
default by Developer of its obligations hereunder, the City hereby covenants and agrees to
assume and to permanently indemnify and save harmless Developer and its employees and
agents, from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, damages, costs, expenses,
attorneys’ fees, and liability in connection with the loss of life, personal injury and/or damage to
property arising from or out of any occurrence in, at, upon, or from the use or occupancy of the
Easement Premises by any party other than Developer and its employees or agents.
Section 7.3 Indemnification of the City. Except to the extent caused by the willful
misconduct or negligence of the City, its employees or agents or the general public or arising out
of the default by the City and its officers, employees or agents of obligations made pursuant to a
contract with Developer, including this Agreement, Developer hereby covenants and agrees to
assume and to permanently indemnify and save harmless the City and its employees and agents
from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, damages, costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees,
and liability in connection with the loss of life, personal injury and/or damage to property to the
B-9
4847-5934-5479\16
extent arising from or out of the design or initial construction of the Easement Premises, or in
connection with the use or occupancy of the Easement Premises, or any part thereof, by the
Developer, or to the extent arising out of the breach of Developer’s obligations hereunder
Section 7.4 Liability Insurance. The Developer and the City shall procure and
maintain continuously in effect (or shall cause the same to occur), policies of insurance of the
kind and minimum amounts as are customarily maintained with respect to facilities and
improvements similar to those located on the Easement Premises and, to be reviewed from time
to time by the parties and adjusted in accordance with the requirements of Minnesota Statutes
Section 466.04, as follows:
(a) Insurance against liability for injuries to or death of any person or damage
to or loss of property arising out of or in any way relating to the condition of the Market
Street Plaza. Developer (and Developer’s lender and property manager) shall be named
as additional insureds on the City’s such policy of insurance and the City shall be named
as additional insured on the Developer’s such policy of insurance.
(b) Liability insurance including coverage for:
(i) fire and explosion; and
(ii) riot, civil commotion, malicious mischief, and vandalism.
(c) To the extent reasonably available, insuring the indemnifications
expressed in 7.2 and 7.3 hereof (as applicable).
Section 7.5 General Insurance Requirement. All insurance required in this
Agreement shall be placed with financially sound and reputable insurers licensed to transact
business in the State of Minnesota. Each party shall, within a commercially reasonable time
following the other party’s request therefor, furnish the requesting party with copies of policies
evidencing all such insurance or a certificate or certificates of the respective insurers stating that
such insurance is in force and effect. Each policy of insurance herein required shall contain a
provision that the insurer shall not cancel it without giving written notice to the parties at least
thirty (30) days before the cancellation becomes effective. The insurance coverage herein
required may be provided by a blanket insurance policy or policies.
Section 7.6 Immunities. Nothing herein shall be deemed or constitute a waiver by the
City of any statutory limitations on liability, statutory or common law immunities or any
defenses that would otherwise be available to it in claims by third parties, including specifically
the maximum liability amount contained in Minnesota Statutes Section 466.04. To the extent that
the Developer performs construction, operation, maintenance, repair, or replacement of any part
of the Market Street Plaza, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, it is the intention of the
parties that the Developer is entitled to the immunities provided pursuant to Minnesota Statutes
Section 466.03, or any successor statute.
B-10
4847-5934-5479\16
Article VIII
ASSIGNMENT
Section 8.1 General. Due to the public nature of the easement granted herein, the City
may not assign or transfer its interest under this Agreement without the prior written consent of
Developer, which consent shall be granted, conditioned or withheld in Developer’s sole
discretion. During the term of the Contract, the Developer may not assign or otherwise transfer
its interest under this Agreement, except as provided in the Contract. The City shall recognize
and approve any successors or assigns of Developer in accordance with the terms and provisions
of the Contract. Following the expiration or earlier termination of the Contract, Developer may
freely assign or transfer its interest under this Agreement without the consent of the City.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties acknowledge and agree
that the rights and easements established, granted, conveyed, reserved and consented to by this
Agreement will run with the land and will inure to the benefit of and be binding on all present
and future owners of any applicable portion of the South Site and their respective successors and
assigns.
Article IX
Casualty
Section 9.1 Destruction. Promptly upon any casualty loss or damage to all or any part
of the Market Street Plaza (including subsurface structural support elements), the Developer
shall proceed with diligence to restore the Market Street Plaza to the condition prior to the
casualty with the insurance proceeds obtained with respect to the loss or damage to the extent the
insurance proceeds recovered allow for such rebuilding; provided, however, the Developer shall
not be obligated to rebuild the Market Street Plaza if any of the Developer’s lenders or loan
agreements (whether executed before or after the date hereof) do not permit such rebuilding or
require that insurance amounts recovered with respect to any loss or damage to the Market Street
Plaza be paid directly to the lender.
Article X
EMINENT DOMAIN
Section 10.1 Major Condemnation. If all of the Market Street Plaza shall be taken,
acquired, or condemned by eminent domain for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, this
Agreement shall terminate as of the date of vesting of title in the condemning authority. Each
party shall make its own claim in the condemnation proceeding based upon the value of its
respective interest in the Market Street Plaza.
Section 10.2 Partial Condemnation. If any portion of the Market Street Plaza shall be
taken, acquired, or condemned by eminent domain for any public or quasi-public use or purpose,
the absence of which materially and adversely affects the conduct of business by the City or the
Developer, then either the City or the Developer, at any time within sixty (60) days after it has
actual notice of such proposed acquisition or condemnation, shall have the option to cancel and
B-11
4847-5934-5479\16
terminate this Agreement as of the date of vesting of title in the condemning authority of the
acquired or condemned property; provided, if neither party so terminates the Agreement
will continue as to the remaining part of the Easement Premises not so taken or threatened to be
taken. The terminating party, if any, shall exercise its termination option by giving the other
party written notice of the exercise thereof within the foregoing sixty (60) days’ period, and in
the event neither party furnishes the other party written notice of the exercise thereof within the
time and in the manner herein provided, then this Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect. Each party shall make its own claim in the condemnation proceeding based upon the
value of its respective interest in that part of the Market Street Plaza subject to the acquisition or
condemnation, provided, however, that no award to the City based on its easement interest shall
be permitted to the extent such award reduces Developer’s award based on its fee interest.
Following any such partial taking, the City shall restore the remaining portion of the Market
Street Plaza above the Developer Waterproofing Layer, and Developer shall restore the
corresponding portion of the subsurface support of the Market Street Plaza at and below the
Developer Waterproofing Layer.
Article XI
DEFAULT and Remedies
Section 11.1 Events of Default. It shall be an “Event of Default” hereunder if (a) either
party defaults in any obligation of this Agreement requiring the payment of money and fails to
cure such default within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such default from the
other party or (b) if a party defaults in any of its other obligations under this Agreement and fails
to cure such default within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such default from the
other party (or, if such default reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days to cure, fails to
commence such action as is necessary to cure such default within such 30-day period and to
proceed diligently thereafter to cure such default).
Section 11.2 Remedies. Following an Event of Default hereunder, the non-defaulting
party may: (a) exercise its self-help rights in accordance with Section 11.3 with respect to a
default in the performance of Maintenance Work; (b) pay all or any part of such obligations and
charge the amount of such payment, together with reasonable attorneys’ fees and interest at a rate
of twelve percent (12%) per annum, to the defaulting party; (c) bring an action for injunctive
relief; or (d) enforce the obligations of the defaulting party by an action at law or in equity. In an
emergency, any such payment or performance may be undertaken or action brought by the non-
defaulting party prior to the giving of any notice or expiration of any notice period, but the party
curing the default will provide such notice as soon as may be reasonable under the
circumstances. If the Developer has failed to cure a default requiring the payment of money in
accordance this section, the City shall have the right to assess the costs incurred by the City to all
or any portion of the South Site as a service charge pursuant to Minnesota Statutes,
Section 429.101, or any successor statute.
Section 11.3 Self Help; Failure to Maintain. In the event the City defaults in its
obligation to perform the City’s Work, or the Developer defaults in its obligation to perform the
Developer’s Work, each as required by this Agreement, then the non-defaulting party, after
compliance with the notice and cure provisions of Section 11.1 (except in an emergency, in
B-12
4847-5934-5479\16
which case the applicable Maintenance Work may be initiated with whatever notice is reasonable
under the circumstances), shall have the right to enter any portion of the Easement Premises
(including subsurface structural support elements) and perform such Maintenance Work as
required herein and charge the costs of such performance plus ten percent (10%) of such costs
for overhead, together with reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the defaulting party. The defaulting
party shall promptly pay to the non-defaulting party any and all such costs as are due and owing
on account thereof. The non-defaulting party shall submit a statement to the defaulting party
evidencing the costs incurred for such Maintenance Work. If the Developer is the defaulting
party and has failed to make payment in accordance with the statement within sixty (60) days
after receipt thereof, the City shall have the right to assess the costs incurred by the City to all or
any portion of the South Site as a service charge pursuant to Minnesota Statutes,
Section 429.101, or any successor statute. The Developer hereby agrees to such an assessment
for maintenance and repair costs, agrees that the South Site assessed for such service charges is
benefited thereby, and waives any rights the Developer or a third party may have to object to an
assessment of such service charges, including any rights of appeal under Minnesota Statutes,
Chapter 429. The Easement Premises are subject to entry without notice and at any time, by the
non-defaulting party or its authorized employees and/or agents and/or by any public safety
personnel to perform such Maintenance Work as the non-defaulting party shall deem necessary
in its reasonable discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the City

any part thereof, and the Developer shall have no obligation of any kind, expressed or implied, to
perform the City’s Work or any part thereof.
Section 11.4 Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power and remedy provided under this
Agreement will be cumulative and concurrent and will be in addition to every other right, power
or remedy provided for under this Agreement or at law or in equity. The exercise or beginning of
exercise of any one or more rights, powers or remedies will not preclude the concurrent or later
exercise of any other rights, powers or remedies. Failure to enforce any covenant under this
Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of the right to do so thereafter.
Section 11.5 Easements Survive. The Developer may not terminate any of the
easements created by this Agreement or discontinue performance of its obligations with respect
to maintenance, repair or replacement of any easement due to a default by the City under this

the parties will cooperate in good faith to finalize such budget no later than October 1 of

Maintenance Work that is otherwise considered necessary or prudent under industry
standards for the safe operation and long-term preservation of first-class indoor trash
collection facilities (collectively “Nondiscretionary Maintenance Work”) shall be
performed by Developer in accordance with the terms hereof and the cost thereof
C-8
4847-5934-5479\16

Maintenance Work is referred to herein as “Discretionary Maintenance Work”. The City
shall be entitled to reject or approve, in whole or in part (if partial rejection is feasible in
Developer’s reasonable opinion), in its sole and absolute discretion, and the City may
modify the Annual Budget to account for any Discretionary Maintenance Work so
rejected by the City.
(c) The City shall pay to the Developer one twelfth (l/12) of the City’s pro
rata share of Maintenance Costs as set forth in the approved Annual Budget in monthly
installments no later than thirty (30) days following invoice thereof from the Developer
(and paid in arrears if required by City policy). If the Effective Date is a day other than
the first day of a calendar month, the City’s share of the costs for this month shall be a
prorated portion of the monthly estimation, based upon a thirty (30) day month, and shall
be due and payable on the Effective Date. Any payment not received when due hereunder
shall accrue interest at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum.
(d) Within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar year, the Developer
shall provide the City with a certified statement, together with supporting material upon
request of the City, as to the actual Maintenance Costs paid by it during the preceding
calendar year, together with an accounting of the Administrative Fee. If the amount paid
by City for such calendar year shall have exceeded its share, the Developer shall
promptly refund the excess to the City at the time such certified statement is delivered, or
if the amount paid by the City for such calendar year is less than its share, the City shall
pay the balance of its share to Developer within sixty (60) days after receipt of such
certified statement.
(e) Within one (1) year after receipt of any such certified statement, the City
shall have the right to inspect the Developer’s books and records pertaining to
Maintenance Costs for the calendar year covered by such statement. The Developer shall
provide a complete copy of such books and records to the City in electronic form In the
event that such inspection shall disclose any error in the determination of Maintenance
Costs or in calculating the City’s share of such costs, an appropriate adjustment shall be
made forthwith. Alternatively, the City may cause a third-party auditor to conduct such
inspection, provided as a condition of any third-party audit, City and Developer agree
that only auditors compensated on an hourly or fixed fee basis (expressly excluding any
auditors compensated on a contingent basis) shall be permitted and prior to any such
audit City shall provide evidence of same by delivery to Developer of a copy of the
City’s engagement letter with the auditor. In the event that such audit shall disclose any
error in the determination of Maintenance Costs or in calculating the City’s share of such

reimbursement, not to exceed $2,000.00. The Developer shall keep, and present, upon
request, all invoices, bills or statements of costs or expenses incurred in connection with

Article VI
TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS
Section 6.1 Payment of Taxes and Assessments. Developer shall pay, or cause to be
paid, before becoming delinquent, all real estate taxes, charges, assessments, and levies
(collectively “Taxes”), assessed and levied by any governmental taxing authority during the term

the Market Street Trash Facility is ever subdivided such that it becomes a separate tax parcel and
such parcel is deemed to be subject to Taxes, or (ii) records of the tax assessor provide

City shall pay directly to the relevant taxing authority any such Taxes (“Separate Taxes”).
Article VII
INDEMNIFICATION, INSURANCE, IMMUNITIES
Section 7.1 Property Insurance. At all times during the term hereof, the Developer
shall keep the South Site Vertical Improvements (including the Market Street Trash Facility),
and all alterations, extensions, and improvements thereto and replacements thereof, insured, in
the amount of the full replacement cost thereof and with such deductibles as the Developer
deems appropriate, against loss or damage by fire and against those casualties covered by
extended coverage insurance and against vandalism and malicious mischief and against such
other risks, of a similar or dissimilar nature, as are customarily covered with respect to buildings
and improvements similar in construction, general location, use, and occupancy to the South Site
Vertical Improvements. The City shall pay with its first monthly installment of its pro rata share
of Maintenance Costs following the approval of each Annual Budget an amount equal to the cost
of such insurance which is directly attributable to the Market Street Trash Facility, taking into
account the use, nature, and/or value of the Market Street Trash Facility (and not merely as a
percentage of the total of such insurance costs) as reasonably determined by the parties and the
applicable insurer prior to the City’s approval of each Annual Budget (the “City’s Property
Insurance Contribution”).
Section 7.2 Indemnification of Developer. Except to the extent caused by the willful
misconduct or negligence of the Developer or its employees or agents, or arising out of the
default by Developer of its obligations hereunder, the City hereby covenants and agrees to
assume and to permanently indemnify and save harmless Developer and its employees and
agents, from, and against any and all claims, demands, actions, damages, costs, expenses,
attorneys’ fees, and liability in connection with the loss of life, personal injury and/or damage to
property arising from or out of any occurrence in, at, upon, or from the use or occupancy of the
Easement Premises by any party other than Developer and its employees or agents.
Section 7.3 Indemnification of the City. Except to the extent caused by the willful
misconduct or negligence of the Licensed Parties or arising out of the default by the City and its
officers, employees or agents of obligations made pursuant to a contract with Developer,
including this Agreement, Developer hereby covenants and agrees to assume and to permanently
indemnify and save harmless the City and its employees and agents from and against any and all
C-11
4847-5934-5479\16
claims, demands, actions, damages, costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, and liability in connection
with the loss of life, personal injury and/or damage to property arising from or out of any
occurrence in, at, upon, or from the Easement Premises or to the extent arising from or out of the
design, construction, maintenance and operation of the Easement Premises by the Developer, or
in connection with the use or occupancy of the Easement Premises, or any part thereof, by the
Developer, or to the extent arising out of the breach of Developer’s obligations hereunder
Section 7.4 Liability Insurance. The Developer and the City shall procure and
maintain continuously in effect (or shall cause the same to occur), policies of insurance of the
kind and minimum amounts as are customarily maintained with respect to facilities and
improvements similar to the Market Street Trash Facility, to be reviewed from time to time by
the parties and adjusted in accordance with the requirements of Minnesota Statutes
Section 466.04, as follows:
(a) Insurance against liability (including passenger elevator liability) for
injuries to or death of any person or damage to or loss of property arising out of or in any
way relating to the condition of the Market Street Trash Facility. Developer (and
Developer’s lender and property manager) shall be named as additional insureds on the
City’s such policy of insurance and the City shall be named as additional insured on the
Developer’s such policy of insurance.
(b) Liability insurance including coverage for:
(i) fire and explosion;
(ii) theft (of entire vehicle); and
(iii) riot, civil commotion, malicious mischief, and vandalism.
(c) To the extent reasonably available, insuring the indemnifications
expressed in 7.2 and 7.3 hereof (as applicable).
Section 7.5 General Insurance Requirement. All insurance required in this
Agreement shall be placed with financially sound and reputable insurers licensed to transact
business in the State of Minnesota. The Developer shall, within a commercially reasonable time
following the City’s request therefor, furnish the City with copies of policies evidencing all such
insurance or a certificate or certificates of the respective insurers stating that such insurance is in
force and effect. Each policy of insurance herein required shall contain a provision that the
insurer shall not cancel it without giving written notice to the City at least thirty (30) days before
the cancellation becomes effective. The insurance coverage herein required may be provided by
a blanket insurance policy or policies.
Section 7.6 Immunities. Nothing herein shall be deemed or constitute a waiver by the
City of any statutory limitations on liability, statutory or common law immunities or any
defenses that would otherwise be available to it in claims by third parties, including specifically
the maximum liability amount contained in Minnesota Statutes Section 466.04. To the extent that
the Developer performs construction, operation, maintenance, repair, or replacement of any part
of the Market Street Trash Facility, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, it is the intention of
C-12
4847-5934-5479\16
the parties that the Developer is entitled to the immunities provided pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes Section 466.03, or any successor statute.
Article VIII
ASSIGNMENT
Section 8.1 General. Due to the public nature of the easement granted herein, the City
may not assign or transfer its interest under this Agreement without the prior written consent of
Developer, which consent shall be granted, conditioned or withheld in Developer’s sole
discretion. During the term of the Contract, the Developer may not assign or otherwise transfer
its interest under this Agreement, except as provided in the Contract. The City shall recognize
and approve any successors or assigns of Developer in accordance with the terms and provisions
of the Contract. Following the expiration or earlier termination of the Contract, Developer may
freely assign or transfer its interest under this Agreement without the consent of the City.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties acknowledge and agree
that the rights and easements established, granted, conveyed, reserved and consented to by this
Agreement will run with the land and will inure to the benefit of and be binding on all present
and future owners of any applicable portion of the South Site and their respective successors and
assigns.
Article IX
Casualty
Section 9.1 Destruction. Promptly upon any casualty loss or damage to all or any part
of the Market Street Trash Facility (including subsurface structural support elements), the
Developer shall proceed with diligence to restore the Market Street Trash Facility to the
condition prior to the casualty with the insurance proceeds obtained with respect to the loss or
damage to the extent the insurance proceeds recovered allow for such rebuilding; provided,
however, the Developer shall not be obligated to rebuild the Market Street Trash Facility if any
of the Developer’s lenders or loan agreements (whether executed before or after the date hereof)
do not permit such rebuilding or require that insurance amounts recovered with respect to any
loss or damage to the Market Street Trash Facility be paid directly to the lender.
Article X
EMINENT DOMAIN
Section 10.1 Major Condemnation. If all of the Market Street Trash Facility shall be
taken, acquired, or condemned by eminent domain for any public or quasi-public use or purpose,
this Agreement shall terminate as of the date of vesting of title in the condemning authority.
Each party shall make its own claim in the condemnation proceeding based upon the value of its
respective interest in the Market Street Trash Facility.
Section 10.2 Partial Condemnation. If any portion of the Market Street Trash Facility
shall be taken, acquired, or condemned by eminent domain for any public or quasi-public use or
C-13
4847-5934-5479\16
purpose, the absence of which materially and adversely affects the conduct of business by the
City or the Developer, then either the City or the Developer, at any time within sixty (60) days
after it has actual notice of such proposed acquisition or condemnation, shall have the option to
cancel and terminate this Agreement as of the date of vesting of title in the condemning authority
of the acquired or condemned property; provided, if neither party so terminates the Agreement
will continue as to the remaining part of the Easement Premises not so taken or threatened to be
taken. The terminating party, if any, shall exercise its termination option by giving the other
party written notice of the exercise thereof within the foregoing sixty (60) days’ period, and in
the event neither party furnishes the other party written notice of the exercise thereof within the
time and in the manner herein provided, then this Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect. Each party shall make its own claim in the condemnation proceeding based upon the
value of its respective interest in that part of the Market Street Trash Facility subject to the
acquisition or condemnation, provided, however, that no award to the City based on its easement
interest shall be permitted to the extent such award reduces Developer’s award based on its fee
interest.
Article XI
DEFAULT and Remedies
Section 11.1 General. It shall be an “Event of Default” hereunder if (a) either party
defaults in any obligation of this Agreement requiring the payment of money and fails to cure
such default within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such default from the other
party or (b) if a party defaults in any of its other obligations under this Agreement and fails to
cure such default within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such default from the
other party (or, if such default reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days to cure, fails to
commence such action as is necessary to cure such default within such 30-day period and to
proceed diligently thereafter to cure such default).
Section 11.2 Remedies. Following an Event of Default hereunder, the non-defaulting
party may: (a) exercise its self-help rights in accordance with Section 11.3 with respect to a
default in the performance of Maintenance Work; (b) pay all or any part of such obligations and
charge the amount of such payment, together with reasonable attorneys’ fees and interest at a rate
of twelve percent (12%) per annum, to the defaulting party; (c) bring an action for injunctive
relief; or (d) enforce the obligations of the defaulting party by an action at law or in equity. In an
emergency, any such payment or performance may be undertaken or action brought by the non-
defaulting party prior to the giving of any notice or expiration of any notice period, but the party
curing the default will provide such notice as soon as may be reasonable under the
circumstances. If the Developer has failed to cure a default requiring the payment of money in
accordance this section, the City shall have the right to assess the costs incurred by the City to all
or any portion of the South Site as a service charge pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section
429.101, or any successor statute.
Section 11.3 Self Help; Failure to Maintain. In the event the Developer defaults in its
obligation to perform the Maintenance Work as required by this Agreement, then the City, after
compliance with the notice provisions of Section 11.1 (except in an emergency, in which case
the applicable Maintenance Work may be initiated with whatever notice is reasonable under the
C-14
4847-5934-5479\16
circumstances), shall have the right to enter any portion of the Easement Premises (including
subsurface structural support elements) and perform such Maintenance Work as required herein
and charge the costs of such performance plus ten percent (10%) of such costs for overhead,
together with reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the Developer. The Developer shall promptly pay to
the City any and all such costs as are due and owing on account thereof. The City shall submit a
statement to the Developer evidencing the costs incurred for such Maintenance Work. If the
Developer has failed to make payment in accordance with the statement within sixty (60) days
after receipt thereof, the City shall have the right to assess the costs incurred by the City to all or
any portion of the South Site as a service charge pursuant to Minnesota Statutes,
Section 429.101, or any successor statute. The Developer hereby agrees to such an assessment
for maintenance and repair costs, agrees that the South Site assessed for such service charges is
benefited thereby, and waives any rights the Developer or a third party may have to object to an
assessment of such service charges, including any rights of appeal under Minnesota Statutes,
Chapter 429. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the City shall have no
obligation of any kind, expressed or implied, to perform the Maintenance Work or any part
thereof.
Section 11.4 Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power and remedy provided under this
Agreement will be cumulative and concurrent and will be in addition to every other right, power
or remedy provided for under this Agreement or at law or in equity. The exercise or beginning of
exercise of any one or more rights, powers or remedies will not preclude the concurrent or later
exercise of any other rights, powers or remedies. Failure to enforce any covenant under this
Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of the right to do so thereafter.
Section 11.5 Easements Survive. The Developer may not terminate any of the
easements created by this Agreement or discontinue performance of its obligations with respect
to maintenance, repair or replacement of any easement due to a default by the City under this
Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual obligations of the
parties hereto, each of them does hereby covenant and agree with the others as follows:
Article I
GRANT OF EASEMENTS
Section 1.1 Easement Premises. Developer hereby grants and conveys to the City, for
the benefit of the City (a) an exclusive, perpetual public easement over and across those portions
of the real property described on Exhibit A-2 attached hereto and depicted on Exhibit B-1
attached hereto situate in the City of Edina, County of Hennepin, State of Minnesota (the
“Parking Premises”) for the purposes of utilizing the Public Parking Level for the parking,
passage, and accommodation of motor vehicles and passage and accommodation of pedestrians
and (b) a non-exclusive, perpetual public easement over, across, upon and through all means of
vehicular and pedestrian access to and from public rights of way, streets, alleys, public spaces,
and easements appurtenant and/or used in connection with the Parking Premises (including
easements held by the City in connection with the Shared Plaza Element) immediately adjoining
or contiguous to the Parking Premises, including but not limited to all atria, lobbies, concourses,
passageways, hallways, corridors, stairways, and elevators providing such means of access and
intended for use by the public (but excluding all such areas or means of access intended to serve
as private access to the South Site Vertical Improvements other than the Public Parking Level),
all as depicted on Exhibit B-2 attached hereto (collectively, the “Access Premises”, and together
with the Parking Premises, collectively the “Easement Premises”), all in accordance with and
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Easement Premises include only
those portions of the South Site Vertical Improvements necessary to utilize the Public Parking
Level for public parking purposes and access thereto as described above. The Easement Premises
do not include any right to use, alter or affect the walls or structural components of the South
Site Vertical Improvements.
Section 1.2 Breakthrough Panels. Developer shall construct the Public Parking Level
with a minimum of one (1) breakthrough panel, such breakthrough panel or panels designed to
accommodate, in aggregate, two standard drive lanes (each approximately twelve (12) to fifteen

hereto, to facilitate potential future access from the Public Parking Level to a public or private
underground parking facility constructed on property adjacent to the South Site (“Adjacent
Parcel”) and accessible to the locations of the breakthrough panels (such facility is referred to
herein as the “Adjacent Parcel Parking Facility”). The Developer and the City agree to negotiate
in good faith with the Adjacent Parcel owner regarding an easement agreement to provide access
to and through the South Site and Public Parking Level, provided that terms of such an easement
agreement, include specifically, but are not limited to, the Adjacent Parcel owner (a) assuming
costs for (1) removing the breakthrough panel(s), (2) designing and constructing all connections
to and through the Adjacent Parcel, including the relocation of utilities located between the UG
Parking Element and the Adjacent Property; and (3) restoring any portions of the South Site, UG

Parking Element (including specifically the street level vehicle ingress and egress system). Any

commercially reasonable discretion, with respect to the following: grant of easement(s)
(including term thereof and consideration therefor, if any), maximum capacity of the Adjacent
Parcel Parking Facility and related traffic volumes and wait times in the UG Parking Element,
construction and operation of the Adjacent Parcel Parking Facility, insurance and indemnity
requirements, casualty, and rules and regulations for each of the Adjacent Parcel Parking Facility
and the UG Parking Element. [SECTION 1.2 ABOVE SHALL BE INCLUDED, REMOVED,

release shall be evidenced by the recording of a release or termination of this Agreement in the
real estate records of Hennepin County, Minnesota, at which time this Agreement shall
terminate, subject to reconciliation of expenses and obligations incurred through the date of
release or termination and the continuation of those provisions that specifically survive
termination of this Agreement, and the Public Parking Level and any other areas of the Easement
Premises shall thereafter belong to and be under the sole control of Developer.
Article III
USE OF EASEMENT PREMISES
Section 3.1 General. During the term of this Agreement, the City shall operate the
Public Parking Level, and the Developer shall operate the Private Parking Level, each in
accordance with this Agreement and all applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations
and orders, each at its own cost and subject to the reimbursement provisions contained herein.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the City shall have full authority and control over the
management, operation, and use of the Public Parking Level. The Developer shall have full
authority and control over the management, operation, and use of the Private Parking Level.
Except as specifically set forth herein, each party shall be entitled to make all decisions and to
execute all agreements, in its sole discretion, with respect to its respective portion of the UG
Parking Element (i.e., the City with respect to the Public Parking Level and the Developer with
respect to the Private Parking Level) so long as such decisions and agreements do not violate the
provisions of this Agreement, the Contract, the approved Final Development Plan, or any
applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations or orders, as each of the foregoing may be
amended and so long as each of the foregoing remains in effect. Notwithstanding the separate
management and control of the Public Parking Level and Private Parking Level by the City and
the Developer respectively, or anything else to the contrary in the Agreement, the parties
D-5
4847-5934-5479\16
covenant that they will cooperate and coordinate in good faith to establish operational and
management procedures such that neither party’s normal use and enjoyment of its respective
portion of the UG Parking Element is unreasonably diminished or impaired by the other party’s
normal use and enjoyment of its respective portion of the UG Parking Element. Furthermore, to
the extent access and use of the UG Parking Element is controlled by an automated payment
processing and compliance enforcement system (an “Automated Parking System”), the parties
will cooperate to cause any such Automated Parking System to be designed and programmed in
a manner consistent with each party’s desired use and operation of its respective portion of the
UG Parking Element.
Section 3.2 Operation and Control of the Public Parking Level. Subject to Section
3.1, the City may establish (and modify from time to time) (a) such hours of operation, rules, and
regulations as it deems advisable, necessary, or appropriate in the City’s reasonable discretion
for the safe, efficient, and orderly use and operation of the Public Parking Level and (b) such
rates and charges for the use of the Public Parking Level as it deems advisable or desirable in the
City’s reasonable discretion. The City shall be entitled to keep and retain as its own property all
income and revenue produced from the operation and use of the Public Parking Level during the
term of this Agreement and shall have no obligation to report to or account to the Developer for
any such income or revenue. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the
Public Parking Level shall be open to the public; provided, however, the City may designate
certain parking spots for certain specific uses (e.g., handicap parking, ride share, etc.) and enter
into contracts for parking licenses for spots within the Public Parking Level in a manner
consistent with policies that the City may establish (and modify from time to time), including
monthly contracts for overnight parking by residents of the Apartment Element, so long all of the
foregoing activities do not unreasonably impair the public’s use and access to the Public Parking
Level for purposes of patronizing the businesses, events, and amenities located in the
50th & France District.
Section 3.3 Operation and Control of the Private Parking Level. Subject to Section
3.1, Developer may establish (and modify from time to time) (a) such hours of operation, rules,
and regulations as it deems advisable, necessary, or appropriate in the Developer’s reasonable
discretion for the safe, efficient, and orderly use and operation of the Private Parking Level and
(b) such rates and charges for the use of the Private Parking Level as it deems advisable or
desirable in the Developer’s reasonable discretion. The Developer shall be entitled to keep and
retain as its own property all income and revenue produced from the operation and use of the
Private Parking Level during the term of this Agreement and shall have no obligation to report to
or account to the City for any such income or revenue.
Section 3.4 Waste; Nuisance. Neither the City nor the Developer shall knowingly or
willfully commit or suffer to be committed any waste or damage in or upon the Easement
Premises, or any disfigurement or injury to any improvements hereafter erected or located upon
the Easement Premises, or any part thereof, or the fixtures and/or equipment thereof. The City in
its use and occupancy of the Easement Premises, shall not knowingly and willfully commit or
suffer to be committed any act or thing which constitutes a nuisance. Usual and normal wear and
tear, damage by the elements, unavoidable casualty or depreciation and diminution over time
shall not be considered “waste,” “nuisance,” “damage,” “disfigurement,” or “injury.”

Article IV
MAINTENANCE OF THE EASEMENT PREMISES
Section 4.1 Maintenance. Subject to cost reimbursement by the City as provided in
Section 4.4 below, and subject further to the City’s right to exclusively control and operate the
Public Parking Level, Developer shall, at all times during the term hereof, at its initial cost and
expense, keep, maintain, and repair the UG Parking Element in good condition and repair in a
first-class manner, similar to that of other underground parking facilities located within other
first-class, multi-use projects in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area. Such maintenance
and repair work (collectively “Maintenance Work”) shall include, without limitation, the
following:
(a) all repairs, replacements, renewals, alterations, additions and betterments
thereto, interior and exterior, structural and non-structural, ordinary and extraordinary,
and foreseen and unforeseen, all as may be necessary to keep the UG Parking Element in
the condition and repair required by this Agreement;
(b) maintaining all drive and parking surfaces in a smooth and evenly covered
condition, which maintenance work shall include cleaning, sweeping, restriping,
repairing and resurfacing the same;
(c) maintaining in good working order (including cleaning and painting as
necessary), repairing, and replacing as necessary the Access Premises;
(d) maintaining in good working order, repairing, and replacing as necessary
all ventilation and mechanical systems (“Mechanical Systems”);
(e) maintaining in good working order, repairing, and replacing as necessary
any Automated Parking System;
(f) maintaining in good working order, repairing, and replacing as necessary
all domestic water, sewer, storm water, gas, electricity, power, heat, telephone, other
communications service and any and all other utility or similar services used, rendered, or
supplied, upon, at, from, or in connection with the UG Parking Element (collectively
“Utilities”);
(g) periodic removal of all papers, debris, filth, refuse, ice and snow,
including without limitation sweeping to the extent necessary to keep the UG Parking
Element in a first-class, clean and orderly condition; provided all sweeping shall be at
appropriate intervals during such times as shall not unreasonably interfere with the use of
the UG Parking Element;
(h) placing, keeping in repair, replacing and repainting any appropriate
directional signs or markers, within or associated with the UG Parking Element; and
D-7
4847-5934-5479\16
(i) operating, keeping in repair, cleaning and replacing when necessary such
UG Parking Element lighting facilities as may be reasonably required, including without
limitation all lighting necessary or appropriate for UG Parking Element security.
Section 4.2 Manner of Performance. All Maintenance Work shall be done: (i) in
such manner as to not unreasonably interfere with the normal use and enjoyment of the area on
which such work is being done; (ii) in full compliance with the provisions of this Agreement and
the Contract; (iv) in full compliance with all applicable statutes, codes, ordinances, rules and
regulations; (v) with respect to reconstruction, maintenance, repair, alterations or modifications,
the Maintenance Work shall use materials, equipment and design and engineering standards,
equal to or better than those originally used; (vi) in a good and workmanlike manner; (vii) in
such manner as not to unreasonably adversely affect, impair or destroy the structural soundness
or integrity, aesthetic appearance or functional utility of the UG Parking Element; (viii) with all
due diligence; and (ix) in such a manner so as to clean the area and restore the affected portion of
the area on which the Maintenance Work was done to a condition equal to or better, to the extent
practical, than the condition which existed prior to the commencement of such Maintenance
Work.
Section 4.3 Third Party Maintenance Providers. The Developer shall have the right,
from time to time, to select and hire a third party to perform the Maintenance Work, provided
that the Developer shall remain responsible at all times for the performance of the Maintenance
Work. If the Developer selects such third party to perform, supervise or coordinate the
Maintenance Work (the “Property Manager”), such Property Manager must be a recognized
professional commercial property management company. The Developer may hire companies
affiliated with it to perform the Maintenance Work, but only if the rates charged by such
companies are competitive with those of other companies furnishing similar service in the
Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area, it being agreed that this provision regarding affiliated
companies shall be construed strictly against the Developer. Any contract with a Property
Manager, and the amounts to be paid such Property Manager under such contract, shall be
subject to the City’s prior review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. All such contracts shall be no longer than one (1) year in
duration (but may provide for automatic renewal).
Section 4.4 Maintenance Costs.
(a) Subject to the Excluded Costs set forth in Section 4.6 below, all costs and
expenses in connection with the maintenance and repair of the UG Parking Element,
(“Maintenance Costs”) shall be the shared responsibility of the City and the Developer on
a pro rata share basis (as defined below). Maintenance Costs shall include, without
limitation, the following costs:
(i) all third party costs of performing any maintenance of the UG
Parking Element, including repairs and necessary replacements of all or
components of the Access Premises, the Mechanical Systems and the Automatic
Parking System;
D-8
4847-5934-5479\16
(ii) wages of on-site supervisory personnel, attendants and cashiers,
janitorial, maintenance, clerical and audit staff attributable to the UG Parking
Element, and a charge from the Developer or the Property Manager, as the case
may be, for employee benefits including, but not limited to, monetary fringe
benefits such as workers’ compensation insurance, unemployment insurance,
social security, group health and dental insurance, retirement benefits; provided,
however, in the event an employee does not devote his or her full working time to
the UG Parking Element, then all of the foregoing charges pertaining to such
employee shall be appropriately prorated to the UG Parking Element in a manner
reasonably acceptable to the City; provided further, in no event shall the
compensation (direct or indirect) of any off-site management personnel be
included in Maintenance Cost Expenses, the same being borne solely by the
Developer or the Property Manager, as the case may be; provided further, that
notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection to the contrary, the parties
acknowledge and agree that the UG Parking Element will likely utilize an
Automated Parking System and, therefore, the need for on-site attendants and
cashiers will likely be minimal;
(iii) costs of Utilities used, rendered, supplied, or consumed in, upon,
at, from, or in connection with the UG Parking Element and Access Premises
(“Utilities Costs”); and
(iv) an administrative or overhead fee of the Developer or the Property
Manager (if applicable), but not both (“Administrative Fee”) to cover arranging
such maintenance and billing, but such Administrative Fee shall not exceed three
percent (3%) of the Maintenance Costs exclusive of such Administrative Fee.
(b) The City’s “pro rata share” of Maintenance Costs shall be fifty percent
(50%) and the Developer’s “pro rata share” of Maintenance Costs shall be fifty percent
(50%). In addition to the City’s pro rata share of Maintenance Costs, the City shall pay (i)
the cost of all Maintenance Work which exclusively benefits or serves the Public Parking
Level and those portions of the Access Premises, including the public elevator, solely
serving the Public Parking Level and the cost of the repair of any damage caused by the
City or the public and (ii) all Utilities Costs which exclusively serve the Public Parking
Level and Access Premises or are separately metered.
(c) No later September 1 of each year, the Developer shall submit to the City
an estimated annual budget of the Maintenance Costs for the following calendar year, and
the parties will cooperate in good faith to finalize such budget no later than October 1 of
each year (“Annual Budget”). The Developer shall submit the first Annual Budget to the
City, covering the initial partial year of operation of the Public Parking Level, no later
than sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date the Public Parking Level will open to the
public. With the first Annual Budget, the Developer shall prepare, in consultation with a
qualified professional engineer with experience and knowledge about industry best
practices for proper maintenance of an underground parking facility (“Qualified
Engineer”), a proposed operation manual and maintenance schedule for the UG Parking
Element (“O&M Plan”) which shall identify the nature and frequency of all
D-9
4847-5934-5479\16
recommended routine and preventative Maintenance Work for the UG Parking Element.
The Developer shall cause the O&M Plan to be reviewed and updated by a Qualified
Engineer at least once every five (5) years and submitted to the City with the subsequent
year’s proposed Annual Budget. Each Annual Budget and O&M Plan shall be subject to
the City’s review and prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. City and Developer agree that Maintenance Work that
is included in the applicable Annual Budget, including any allowances therein, and any
Maintenance Work that is presented as “critical”, “required”, “recommended”, or
similarly categorized in the O&M Plan, or is otherwise considered necessary or prudent
under industry standards for the safe operation and long-term preservation of
underground parking facilities (collectively “Nondiscretionary Maintenance Work”) shall
be performed by Developer in accordance with the terms hereof and the cost thereof
included in Maintenance Costs. All Maintenance Work other than Nondiscretionary
Maintenance Work is referred to herein as “Discretionary Maintenance Work”. The City
shall be entitled to reject or approve, in whole or in part (if partial rejection is feasible in
Developer’s reasonable opinion), in its sole and absolute discretion, any Discretionary
Maintenance Work that will affect or is proposed to be performed with respect to the
Public Parking Level, and the City may modify the Annual Budget to account for any
Discretionary Maintenance Work so rejected by the City. The Developer will cause any
Discretionary Maintenance Work with respect to the Public Parking Level to be
completed only if approved by the City.
(d) The Developer shall endeavor to use its commercially reasonable efforts,
where practical, to obtain multiple bids (ideally three) from reputable vendors for the
Maintenance Costs to ensure the expenditures are incurred at market rates in arms-length
transactions most beneficial to the parties hereto.
(e) The City shall pay to the Developer one twelfth (l/12) of the City’s pro
rata share of Maintenance Costs as set forth in the approved Annual Budget in monthly
installments no later than thirty (30) days following invoice thereof from the Developer
(and paid in arrears if required by City policy). If the Effective Date is a day other than
the first day of a calendar month, the City’s share of the costs for this month shall be a
prorated portion of the monthly estimation, based upon a thirty (30) day month, and shall
be due and payable on the Effective Date. Any payment not received when due hereunder
shall accrue interest at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum.
(f) Within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar year, the Developer
shall provide the City with a certified statement, together with supporting material upon
request of the City, as to the actual Maintenance Costs paid by it during the preceding
calendar year, together with an accounting of the Administrative Fee. If the amount paid
by City for such calendar year shall have exceeded its share, the Developer shall
promptly refund the excess to the City at the time such certified statement is delivered, or
if the amount paid by the City for such calendar year is less than its share, the City shall
pay the balance of its share to Developer within sixty (60) days after receipt of such
certified statement.
D-10
4847-5934-5479\16
(g) Within one (1) year after receipt of any such certified statement, the City
shall have the right to inspect the Developer’s books and records pertaining to
Maintenance Costs for the calendar year covered by such statement. The Developer shall
provide a complete copy of such books and records to the City in electronic form In the
event that such inspection shall disclose any error in the determination of Maintenance
Costs or in calculating the City’s share of such costs, an appropriate adjustment shall be
made forthwith. Alternatively, the City may cause a third-party auditor to conduct such
inspection, provided as a condition of any third-party audit, City and Developer agree
that only auditors compensated on an hourly or fixed fee basis (expressly excluding any
auditors compensated on a contingent basis) shall be permitted and prior to any such
audit City shall provide evidence of same by delivery to Developer of a copy of the
City’s engagement letter with the auditor. In the event that such audit shall disclose any
error in the determination of Maintenance Costs or in calculating the City’s share of such
costs, an appropriate adjustment shall be made forthwith. The cost of any such audit shall
be assumed by the City unless the City shall be entitled to a refund in excess of ten (10%)
percent of the amount calculated by the Developer as its share of such costs for such
calendar year, in which case the Developer shall pay the cost of such audit, without
reimbursement, not to exceed $2,000.00. The Developer shall keep, and present, upon
request, all invoices, bills or statements of costs or expenses incurred in connection with
the Maintenance Costs for a period of two (2) years.
Section 4.5 50th & France District Maintenance Assessments. The Developer
acknowledges and agrees that nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to limit the City’s right
to recoup its payments for its pro rata share of the Maintenance Costs hereunder by including
such costs in the 50th & France District commercial area maintenance assessments, including
assessments levied upon property owned by the Developer, all as specified and in accordance
with the City Code.
Section 4.6 Exclusions to Maintenance Costs. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, the City shall not be obligated to pay any portion of Maintenance
Costs expended by Developer with respect to the following items, which such Maintenance
Costs shall be the Developer’s sole cost and expense and not subject to reimbursement from the
City (collectively “Excluded Costs”):
(a) repair or replacement of any structural element of the UG Parking
Element, including the foundation, foundation walls, parking decks, floor slabs, exterior
walls, and waterproofing systems related to the foregoing;
(b) replacement, repair, or correction of any structural or other construction
defect;
(c) Taxes, except Separate Taxes, if any, pursuant to Section 5.1 below;
(d) Policies of insurance required to be carried by the Developer pursuant to
Article VI, except the City’s Property Insurance Contribution pursuant to Section 6.1
below;
D-11
4847-5934-5479\16
(e) Maintenance Work which exclusively benefits or serves the Private
Parking Level and the cost of repair of any damage caused by the Developer, its
contractors and agents, or such damage to the Access Premises caused by residents of the
Apartment Element while using the Access Premises to access the Private Parking Level
(provided, however, the City will pay one hundred percent (100%) of such Maintenance
Costs which exclusively benefit or serve the Public Parking Level and the cost of repair
of any damage caused by the City or the public, as provided in Section 4.4(b) above);
(f) With respect to Maintenance Work performed by a party related to
Developer, then any cost therefor in excess of what would be chargeable in an arms-
length transaction;
(g) Utilities Costs which exclusively benefit or serve the Private Parking
Level or are separately metered (it being agreed that the user of such Utilities shall be
solely responsible for payment based on actual metered usage);
(h) Discretionary Maintenance Costs not approved by the City in writing; and
(i) Maintenance Costs which are extraordinary costs and which are not
reasonably necessary for the operation, maintenance and insurance of the UG Parking
Element, including, without limitation, (i) any late charges or fees; (ii) any entertainment,
transportation, meals or lodging charges, of anyone; or (iii) any profit, administrative and
overhead costs (other than the Administrative Fee), such as rent, legal, supplies, utilities
and wages or salaries paid to management or supervisory personnel, except as otherwise
provided in this Agreement.
Section 4.7 Liens. The Developer will not permit any mechanic’s or materialmen’s
liens to stand against the Easement Premises on account of improvements authorized by
Developer (and will promptly discharge (by payment, bonding over or otherwise) the same upon
their occurrence); provided, however, the Developer may in good faith and at its expense contest
any such lien in which event such lien may remain undischarged and unsatisfied during the
contest and any appeal, provided the Developer shall file a bond or deposit cash or other
reasonable security in the amount of such lien with the court or with a mortgagee of the UG
Parking Element to secure the payment of such lien if finally determined to be valid.
Article V
TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS
Section 5.1 Payment of Taxes and Assessments. Developer shall pay, or cause to be
paid, before becoming delinquent, all real estate taxes, charges, assessments, and levies
(collectively “Taxes”), assessed and levied by any governmental taxing authority during the term
of this Agreement against the UG Parking Element. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the
Public Parking Level is ever subdivided such that it becomes a separate tax parcel and such
parcel is deemed to be subject to Taxes, or (ii) records of the tax assessor provide reasonable
evidence that the Public Parking Level is deemed to be subject to Taxes, the City shall pay
directly to the relevant taxing authority any such Taxes (“Separate Taxes”).
D-12
4847-5934-5479\16
Article VI
INDEMNIFICATION, INSURANCE, IMMUNITIES
Section 6.1 Property Insurance. At all times during the term hereof, the Developer
shall keep the South Site Vertical Improvements (including the UG Parking Element), and all
alterations, extensions, and improvements thereto and replacements thereof, insured, in the
amount of the full replacement cost thereof and with such deductibles as the Developer deems
appropriate, against loss or damage by fire and against those casualties covered by extended
coverage insurance and against vandalism and malicious mischief and against such other risks, of
a similar or dissimilar nature, as are customarily covered with respect to buildings and
improvements similar in construction, general location, use, and occupancy to the South Site
Vertical Improvements. The City shall pay with its first monthly installment of its pro rata share
of Maintenance Costs following the approval of each Annual Budget an amount equal to the cost
of such insurance which is directly attributable to the Public Parking Level, taking into account
the use, nature, and/or value of the Public Parking Level (and not merely as a percentage of the
total of such insurance costs) as reasonably determined by the parties and the applicable insurer
prior to the City’s approval of each Annual Budget (the “City’s Property Insurance
Contribution”).
Section 6.2 Indemnification of Developer. Except to the extent caused by the willful
misconduct or negligence of the Developer or its employees or agents, or caused by the willful
misconduct or negligence of residents of the Apartment Element while using the Access
Premises to access the Private Parking Level, or arising out of the default by Developer of its
obligations hereunder, the City hereby covenants and agrees to assume and to permanently
indemnify and save harmless Developer and its employees and agents, from, and against any and
all claims, demands, actions, damages, costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, and liability in
connection with the loss of life, personal injury and/or damage to property arising from or out of
any occurrence in, at, upon, or from the use or occupancy of the Easement Premises by any party
other than Developer and its employees or agents.
Section 6.3 Indemnification of the City. Except to the extent caused by the willful
misconduct or negligence of the City, its employees or agents or the general public or arising out
of the default by the City and its officers, employees or agents of obligations made pursuant to a
contract with Developer, including this Agreement, Developer hereby covenants and agrees to
assume and to permanently indemnify and save harmless the City and its employees and agents
from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, damages, costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees,
and liability in connection with the loss of life, personal injury and/or damage to property arising
from or out of any occurrence in, at, upon, or from the Private Parking Level or to the extent
arising from or out of the design, construction, maintenance and operation of the UG Parking
Element by the Developer, or in connection with the use or occupancy of the UG Parking
Element, or any part thereof, by the Developer, or to the extent arising out of the breach of
Developer’s obligations hereunder
Section 6.4 Liability Insurance. The Developer and the City shall procure and
maintain continuously in effect (or shall cause the same to occur), policies of insurance of the
kind and minimum amounts as are customarily maintained with respect to underground parking
D-13
4847-5934-5479\16
facilities, to be reviewed from time to time by the parties and adjusted in accordance with the
requirements of Minnesota Statutes Section 466.04, as follows:
(a) Insurance against liability (including passenger elevator liability) for
injuries to or death of any person or damage to or loss of property arising out of or in any
way relating to the condition of the UG Parking Element. Developer (and Developer’s
lender and property manager) shall be named as additional insureds on the City’s such
policy of insurance and the City shall be named as additional insured on the Developer’s
such policy of insurance.
(b) Liability insurance including coverage for:
(i) fire and explosion;
(ii) theft (of entire vehicle); and
(iii) riot, civil commotion, malicious mischief, and vandalism.

Section 6.5 General Insurance Requirement. All insurance required in this
Agreement shall be placed with financially sound and reputable insurers licensed to transact
business in the State of Minnesota. The Developer shall, within a commercially reasonable time
following the City’s request therefor, furnish the City with copies of policies evidencing all such
insurance or a certificate or certificates of the respective insurers stating that such insurance is in
force and effect. Each policy of insurance herein required shall contain a provision that the
insurer shall not cancel it without giving written notice to the City at least thirty (30) days before
the cancellation becomes effective. The insurance coverage herein required may be provided by
a blanket insurance policy or policies.
Section 6.6 Immunities. Nothing herein shall be deemed or constitute a waiver by the
City of any statutory limitations on liability, statutory or common law immunities or any
defenses that would otherwise be available to it in claims by third parties, including specifically
the maximum liability amount contained in Minnesota Statutes Section 466.04. To the extent that
the Developer performs construction, operation, maintenance, repair, or replacement of any part
of the UG Parking Element, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, it is the intention of the
parties that the Developer is entitled to the immunities provided pursuant to Minnesota Statutes
Section 466.03, or any successor statute.
Article VII
ASSIGNMENT
Section 7.1 General. Due to the public nature of the easement granted herein, the City
may not assign or transfer its interest under this Agreement without the prior written consent of
Developer, which consent shall be granted, conditioned or withheld in Developer’s sole
discretion. During the term of the Contract, the Developer may not assign or otherwise transfer
D-14
4847-5934-5479\16
its interest under this Agreement, except as provided in the Contract. The City shall recognize
and approve any successors or assigns of Developer in accordance with the terms and provisions
of the Contract. Following the expiration or earlier termination of the Contract, Developer may
freely assign or transfer its interest under this Agreement without the consent of the City.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties acknowledge and agree
that the rights and easements established, granted, conveyed, reserved and consented to by this
Agreement will run with the land and will inure to the benefit of and be binding on all present
and future owners of any applicable portion of the South Site and their respective successors and
assigns.
Article VIII
Casualty
Section 8.1 Destruction. Promptly upon any casualty loss or damage to all or any part
of the UG Parking Element, the Developer shall proceed with diligence to restore the UG
Parking Element to the condition prior to the casualty with the insurance proceeds obtained with
respect to the loss or damage to the extent the insurance proceeds recovered allow for such
rebuilding; provided, however, the Developer shall not be obligated to rebuild the UG Parking
Element if any of the Developer’s lenders or loan agreements (whether executed before or after
the date hereof) do not permit such rebuilding or require that insurance amounts recovered with
respect to any loss or damage to the UG Parking Element be paid directly to the lender.
Article IX
EMINENT DOMAIN
Section 9.1 Major Condemnation. If all of the UG Parking Element shall be taken,
acquired, or condemned by eminent domain for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, this
Agreement shall terminate as of the date of vesting of title in the condemning authority. Each
party shall make its own claim in the condemnation proceeding based upon the value of its
respective interest in the UG Parking Element.
Section 9.2 Partial Condemnation. If any portion of the UG Parking Element shall
be taken, acquired, or condemned by eminent domain for any public or quasi-public use or
purpose, the absence of which materially and adversely affects the conduct of business by the
City or the Developer, then either the City or the Developer, at any time within sixty (60) days
after it has actual notice of such proposed acquisition or condemnation, shall have the option to
cancel and terminate this Agreement as of the date of vesting of title in the condemning authority
of the acquired or condemned property; provided, if neither party so terminates the Agreement
will continue as to the remaining part of the Easement Premises not so taken or threatened to be
taken. The terminating party, if any, shall exercise its termination option by giving the other
party written notice of the exercise thereof within the foregoing sixty (60) days’ period, and in
the event neither party furnishes the other party written notice of the exercise thereof within the
time and in the manner herein provided, then this Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect. Each party shall make its own claim in the condemnation proceeding based upon the
value of its respective interest in that part of the UG Parking Element subject to the acquisition
D-15
4847-5934-5479\16
or condemnation, provided, however, that no award to the City based on its easement interest
shall be permitted to the extent such award reduces Developer’s award based on its fee interest.
Article X
DEFAULT and Remedies
Section 10.1 General. It shall be an “Event of Default” hereunder if (a) either party
defaults in any obligation of this Agreement requiring the payment of money and fails to cure
such default within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such default from the other
party or (b) if a party defaults in any of its other obligations under this Agreement and fails to
cure such default within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such default from the
other party (or, if such default reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days to cure, fails to
commence such action as is necessary to cure such default within such 30-day period and to
proceed diligently thereafter to cure such default).
Section 10.2 Remedies. Following an Event of Default hereunder, the non-defaulting
party may: (a) exercise its self-help rights in accordance with Section 10.3 with respect to a
default in the performance of Maintenance Work; (b) pay all or any part of such obligations and
charge the amount of such payment, together with reasonable attorneys’ fees and interest at a rate
of twelve percent (12%) per annum, to the defaulting party; (c) bring an action for injunctive
relief; or (d) enforce the obligations of the defaulting party by an action at law or in equity. In an
emergency, any such payment or performance may be undertaken or action brought by the non-
defaulting party prior to the giving of any notice or expiration of any notice period, but the party
curing the default will provide such notice as soon as may be reasonable under the
circumstances. If the Developer has failed to cure a default requiring the payment of money in

WHEREAS, the Contract provides for Lessor to purchase from Lessee the real property
described on Exhibit A attached hereto, together with all improvements located thereon (referred
to herein, and in the Contract, as the “South Site”); and;
WHEREAS, the Contract provides further that following the transfer of the South Site to
Lessor, Lessor will lease the South Site back to Lessee so the South Site can continue to be
utilized for public purposes until certain other improvements can be completed in connection
with the Market Street Project;
WHEREAS, all capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the respective
meanings ascribed to them in the Contract.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual obligations of the
parties hereto, each of them does hereby covenant and agree with the others as follows:
ARTICLE I
Section 1.01 Lease of Premises and Equipment; Title and Condition

Date of Original Issue: ____, 201__
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
STATE OF MINNESOTA
CITY OF EDINA
HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
OF THE CITY OF EDINA, MINNESOTA
LIMITED REVENUE TAXABLE TAX INCREMENT NOTE
The HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF EDINA,
MINNESOTA (the “HRA”) acknowledges itself to be indebted and, for value received, promises
to pay to the order of EDINA MARKET STREET LLC, or its assigns (the “Developer”), solely
from the source, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter provided, up to the principal amount
of this Limited Revenue Taxable Tax Increment Note (the “Note”), together with interest thereon
accrued on the unpaid principal balance hereof from the date of the Certificate of Completion for
the South Site Vertical Improvements, at the rate of interest of six and zero hundredths percent
(6.00%) per annum, on the Payment Dates (as hereinafter defined).
Each payment on this Note is payable in any coin or currency of the United States of
America which on the date of such payment is legal tender for public and private debts and shall
be made by check or draft made payable to the Developer and mailed to the Developer at its
postal address within the United States which shall be designated from time to time by the
Developer.
The Note is a special and limited obligation and not a general obligation of the HRA,
which has been issued by the HRA pursuant to a Redevelopment Agreement dated June __,
2017, between the City of Edina, Minnesota, the HRA and the Developer (the “Redevelopment
Agreement”), as approved by the Board of the HRA to aid in financing a “project,” as defined in
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, subdivision 8, of the HRA consisting generally of
defraying certain capital and administration costs incurred and to be incurred within and for the
benefit of Tax Increment Financing District _____ (the “TIF District”). Capitalized terms used
herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given to them in the
Redevelopment Agreement.
The Note is being issued at the request of the Developer upon the Land Transfer Closing
Date of the South Site Transfer. The payment of Available Tax Increment under the Note is
fully conditioned upon satisfaction of all requirements of the Note and the Redevelopment
G-2
4847-5934-5479\16
Agreement relating to payment of Available Tax Increment, including specifically, but not
limited to, Section 9.2 and Section 9.4 of the Redevelopment Agreement.
The maximum principal amount of this Note attributable to Qualified Redevelopment
Costs shall not exceed $__________.
Principal of and interest on this Note shall be payable solely from and in the amount of
Available Tax Increment, as hereinafter defined, on each August 1 and February 1 commencing
on the first August 1 or February 1 immediately following issuance of the Certificate of
Completion for the South Site Vertical Improvements and continuing through February 1, 2046
(the “Payment Dates”). The Authority shall have no obligation to pay principal of and interest
on this Note on each Payment Date from any source other than Available Tax Increment and the
failure of the Authority to pay the entire amount of principal or interest on this Note on any
Payment Date shall not constitute a default hereunder as long as the Authority pays principal and
interest hereon to the extent of such pledged revenues. The Authority shall have no obligation to
pay unpaid balance of principal or accrued interest that may remain after the final Payment Date.
All payments made by the HRA on this Note shall be applied first to accrued interest and
then to the principal amount of this Note. Interest accruing from the date of original issue
through and including the first Payment Date will be compounded semiannually on February 1
and August 1 of each year and added to principal. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a
year of 360 days and charged for actual days principal is unpaid.
“Available Tax Increment” means ninety percent (90%) of the Tax Increment derived
from the TIF District and received by the Authority from the County in the six months before
each Payment Date.
EXCEPT AS TO THE OBLIGATION TO MAKE PAYMENTS FROM THE
AVAILABLE TAX INCREMENT, THIS NOTE IS NOT A DEBT OF THE HRA, THE CITY
OF EDINA, OR THE STATE OF MINNESOTA (THE “STATE”), AND NEITHER THE HRA,
THE CITY OF EDINA, THE STATE NOR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF
SHALL BE LIABLE ON THE NOTE, NOR SHALL THE NOTE BE PAYABLE OUT OF
ANY FUNDS OR PROPERTIES OTHER THAN TAX INCREMENT.
Upon an Event of Default by the Redeveloper under the Redevelopment Agreement, the
Authority may exercise the remedies with respect to this Note described in Section 14.5 of the
Redevelopment Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.
The principal sum and all accrued interest payable under this Note is prepayable in whole
or in part at any time by the Authority without premium or penalty. No partial prepayment shall
affect the amount or timing of any other regular payment otherwise required to be made under
this Note.
Upon request of the Owner, the Authority will deliver to the Owner a statement of the
outstanding principal balance of the Note after application of the deemed prepayment under this
paragraph.
G-3
4847-5934-5479\16
The Developer shall never have or be deemed to have the right to compel any exercise of
any taxing power of the HRA or the City of Edina or any other public body, and neither the HRA
nor the City of Edina nor any director, commissioner, council member, board member, officer,
employee or agent of the HRA or the City of Edina, nor any person executing or registering this
Note shall be liable personally hereon by reason of the issuance or registration hereof or
otherwise.
THE HRA MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY THAT THE
AVAILABLE TAX INCREMENT WILL BE SUFFICIENT TO PAY THE PRINCIPAL OF
AND INTEREST ON THIS NOTE. NO HOLDER OF THIS NOTE SHALL HAVE RIGHTS
AGAINST THE HRA EXCEPT FOR DISTRIBUTION OF AVAILABLE TAX INCREMENT.
The Note shall not be assignable or transferable without the prior written consent of the
HRA; provided, however, that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed if:
(a) the assignee or transferee delivers to the HRA a written instrument acknowledging the limited
nature of the HRA’s payment obligations under the Note, and (b) the assignee or transferee
executes and delivers to the HRA a certificate, in form and substance satisfactory to the HRA,
pursuant to which, among other things, such assignee or transferee represents (i) that the Note is
being acquired for investment for such assignee’s or transferee’s own account, not as a nominee
or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, (ii) that the assignee
or transferee has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise
distributing the same, (iii) that the assignee or transferee is an “accredited investor” within the
meaning of Rule 501 of the Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (iv) that
the assignee or transferee, either alone or with such assignee’s or transferee’s representatives, has
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and is capable of evaluating the
merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Note and the assignee or transferee is able
to bear the economic consequences thereof, (v) that in making its decision to acquire the Note,
the assignee or transferee has relied upon independent investigations made by the assignee or
transferee and, to the extent believed by such assignee or transferee to be appropriate, the
assignee’s or transferee’s representatives, including its own professional, tax and other advisors,
and has not relied upon any representation or warranty from the HRA, or any of its officers,
employees, agents, affiliates or representatives, with respect to the value of the Note, (vi) that the
HRA has not made any warranty, acknowledgment or covenant, in writing or otherwise, to the
assignee or transferee regarding the tax consequences, if any, of the acquisition and investment
in the Note, (vii) that the assignee or transferee or its representatives have been given a full
opportunity to examine all documents and to ask questions of, and to receive answers from, the
HRA and its representatives concerning the terms of the Note and such other information as the
assignee or transferee desires in order to evaluate the acquisition of and investment in the Note,
and all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of the assignee or transferee,
(viii) that the assignee or transferee has evaluated the merits and risks of investment in the Note
and has determined that the Note is a suitable investment for the assignee or transferee in light of
such party’s overall financial condition and prospects, (ix) that the Note will be characterized as
“restricted securities” under the federal securities laws because the Note is being acquired in a
transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations
such securities may not be resold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, except in certain limited circumstances, and (x) that no market for this Note exists and
no market for the Note is intended to be developed.

4847-5934-5479\16
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Developer may assign and pledge this Note to secure
any Mortgage that is permitted under Section 10.1 of the Redevelopment Agreement and may
transfer the Note to (i) any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the
Developer or (ii) any entity in which the majority equity interest is owned by the parties that
have a majority equity interest in the Developer.
This Note is issued pursuant to a resolution of the Board of the HRA and is entitled to the
benefits thereof, which resolution is incorporated herein by reference.
IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIED AND RECITED that all acts, conditions, and things
required by the Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota to be done, to have happened,
and to be performed precedent to and in the issuance of this Note have been done, have
happened, and have been performed in regular and due form, time, and manner as required by
law; and that this Note, together with all other indebtedness of the HRA or the City of Edina
outstanding on the date hereof and on the date of its actual issuance and delivery, does not cause
the indebtedness of the HRA or the City of Edina to exceed any constitutional or statutory
limitation thereon.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Board of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of
the City of Edina, Minnesota, has caused this Note to be executed by the manual signatures of
the Chair and the Executive Director of the HRA, and has caused this Note to be dated as of the
date of original issue specified above.

DECLARATION OF COVENANTS AND RESTRICTIONS
DECLARATION OF COVENANTS AND RESTRICTIONS
THIS DECLARATION is made as of the day of _______________ ____, 20___, by
EDINA MARKET STREET LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company (“Declarant”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, Declarant, is the owner of certain real properties situated in the city of
Edina, County of Hennepin, State of Minnesota, legally described in Exhibit A attached hereto
and incorporated herein by reference (the “Property”); and
WHEREAS, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Edina, Minnesota,
a public body corporate and politic organized and existing under the laws of the State of
Minnesota (the “Authority”); the City of Edina Minnesota, a Minnesota statutory city (the
“City”); and Declarant have entered into a Redevelopment Agreement (the “Contract”) dated
June ___, 2017; and
WHEREAS, such Contract is intended to provide for the redevelopment of the Property
by Declarant in coordination with the Authority and with the cooperation and assistance of City
(the “Market Street Redevelopment”), and
WHEREAS, the Contract provides for the expenditure of public and other funds to assist
in the redevelopment of the Market Street Redevelopment and to pay for certain Minimum
Improvements, which include, without limitation, an approximately 110 unit apartment building
to be located on the real property described on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Project” and
referred to in the Contract as the “Apartment Element”); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Contract, Declarant has agreed to impose restrictive
covenants upon the Property to ensure that at least ten percent (10%) of the residential units
within the Project (consisting of two (2), two bedroom units with a minimum area of 1,000
square feet each and [____], one bedroom units with a minimum area of 650 square feet each)
will remain affordable to certain low-income persons and households (“Affordable Units”); and
WHEREAS, Declarant, under this Declaration, intends, declares and covenants that the
restrictive covenants set forth herein governing the use, occupancy and transfer of the Project
shall be and are covenants running with the Property for the Term stated herein and binding upon
all subsequent owners of the Property for such Term, and are not merely personal covenants of
Declarant.
NOW, THEREFORE, said Declarant makes the following Declaration, hereby specifying
that said Declaration shall constitute covenants to run with the land and shall be binding on all
I-2
4847-5934-5479\16
parties in interest and their successors and assigns:
Article I
OCCUPANCY, INCOME AND RENT RESTRICTIONS
Section 1.1 Declarant shall lease at least [_____(__)] of the Affordable Units only to
individuals or households whose gross annual income is sixty percent (60%) or less of the area
median income (including adjustments for family size) , as determined by the U.S. Department
of Housing and Urban Development’s (“HUD”) Area Median Income for the Minneapolis-Saint
Paul-Bloomington Metropolitan Statistical Area (“AMI”) and at least [_____(__)] of the
Affordable Units only to individuals or households whose gross annual income is fifty percent
(50%) or less of the AMI (each a “Qualified Household”).
Section 1.2 The Affordable Units shall bear annual rents not greater than the rental
rate limits for such Qualified Households (adjusted for bedroom count and including utilities) as
published by HUD (and reflected in the City’s Affordable Housing Policy), as such rental rate
limits are updated annually by HUD (and if HUD ceases to publish and update such rates, such
annual rents for the Affordable Units shall not be not greater than thirty percent (30%) of sixty
percent (60%) of AMI or thirty percent (30%) of fifty percent (50%) of AMI, as the case may be
with respect to the applicable Qualified Household, less the monthly allowance for utilities and
services to be paid by the tenant).
Section 1.3 Declarant covenants and agrees that the two-bedroom Affordable Units
will be leased to Qualified Household consisting of at least two (2) individuals.
Section 1.4 Declarant covenants and agrees that no tenant household will be approved
by Declarant for initial occupancy of an Affordable Unit unless and until Declarant shall have
determined (through verification of income, assets, expenses, and deductions) whether such
tenant household is a Qualified Household. Declarant must re-examine and verify the income of
each tenant household living in an Affordable Unit at least annually.
Section 1.5 Residential units of the Project shall qualify as Affordable Units despite
temporary noncompliance with this Article I if the noncompliance is caused by increases in the
incomes of existing tenant household and if actions satisfactory to the Authority are being taken
to ensure that all vacancies are filled in accordance with this Article I until the noncompliance is
corrected.
Article II
Additional Representations, Covenants, and Warranties of declarant
Section 2.1 Declarant shall maintain (a) the Affordable Units with the level of finishes
and amenities described in Section 9.6(a) of the Contract and (b) the Project in compliance with
all requirements of the Contract, any requirements of any lender whose loan is secured by a
mortgage to which Declarant is a party or by which it or the Project is bound, and applicable
ordinances, building and use restrictions, code-required building permits, and any requirements
with respect to licenses, permits, and agreements necessary for the lawful use and operation of
I-3
4847-5934-5479\16
the Project.
Section 2.2 The execution and performance of this Declaration by Declarant (i) will
not violate or, as applicable, have not violated any provision of law, rule or regulation, or any
order of any court or other agency or governmental body, and (ii) will not violate or, as
applicable, have not violated any provision of any indenture, agreement, mortgage, mortgage
note, or other instrument to which Declarant is a party or by which it or the Project is bound, and
(iii) will not result in the creation or imposition of any prohibited encumbrance of any nature.
Section 2.3 Developer shall not refuse to lease an Affordable Unit to the holder of a
voucher or certificate of eligibility under Section 8 of the United States Housing Act of I937
solely because of the status of the prospective tenant as such a holder.
Section 2.4 Declarant shall obtain the consent to this Declaration of any prior recorded
lien-holder for the Project and shall cause such liens to be subordinated to this Declaration.
Section 2.5 Declarant has not and will not execute any other agreement with
provisions contradictory to, or in opposition to, the provisions hereof and that, in any event, the
requirements of this Declaration are paramount and controlling as to the rights and obligations
set forth herein and supersede any other document's provisions in conflict herewith.
Section 2.6 Subject to the terms and conditions of the Contract, Declarant may sell,
transfer or exchange the Project, the Property or any portion thereof, but Declarant shall notify
the Authority and City in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to such sale, transfer or exchange,
and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the acknowledgment of any buyer or successor
or other person acquiring the Project or any interest therein that such acquisition is subject to the
covenants and restrictions of this Declaration (and to the requirements of Contract incorporated
herein). Failure by Declarant to obtain such acknowledgment shall not be deemed to impair the
covenants and restrictions of this Declaration.
Section 2.7 Declarant shall not demolish any part of the Project or substantially
subtract from any real or personal property of the Project or permit the use of any residential unit
for any purpose other than rental housing during the Term of this Declaration unless required by
law.
Section 2.8 Promptly upon any casualty loss or damage to all or any part of the Project
(including subsurface structural support elements), Declarant shall proceed with diligence to
restore the Project to the condition prior to the casualty with the insurance proceeds obtained
with respect to the loss or damage to the extent the insurance proceeds recovered allow for such
rebuilding; provided, however, Declarant shall not be obligated to rebuild the Project if any of
Declarant’s lenders or loan agreements (whether executed before or after the date hereof) do not
permit such rebuilding or require that insurance amounts recovered with respect to any loss or
damage to the Project be paid directly to the lender.
I-4
4847-5934-5479\16
Article III
Enforcement of Covenants and Restrictions
Section 3.1 Declarant shall submit a rent roll, including the income and household size
of the tenants of the Affordable Units, and the proposed rent schedule to Authority annually for
approval on the basis of compliance with this Article I, with an initial deadline for submission of
three (3) months following the Commencement Date and thereafter an annual deadline for
submission of September 1st for the Term of this Declaration.
Section 3.2 Declarant shall permit, during normal business hours and upon reasonable
notice, any duly authorized representative of the Authority or City, to inspect any books and
records of Declarant regarding the Project with respect to the incomes of tenant households of
Affordable Units the rents charged for Affordable Units to ensure compliance with the
requirements of this Declaration.
Section 3.3 At the Authority’s request, Declarant will submit any other information,
documents or certifications that Declarant, in its reasonable discretion, deems necessary to
substantiate Declarant’s compliance with the requirements of this Declaration.
Article IV
TERM
Section 4.1 This Declaration, and the covenants and restrictions contained herein,
shall continue in full force and effect for a period (the “Term”) commencing on the date a
Certificate of Completion is issued by the Authority for the South Site Vertical Improvements
(“Commencement Date”) and ending on the fifteen (15) year anniversary of the Commencement
Date.
Section 4.2 Declarant’s obligation to operate the Project subject to this Declaration for
the Term is independent of the existence and continuance of any TIF Note and other public
assistance contemplated or given by the Authority or the City to Declarant under the Contract
(“Public Assistance”) or any loan given by the Authority to Declarant through the Authority’s
Edina Affordable Housing Fund (“EAHF Loan”). The provisions of this Declaration are intended
to survive the termination or extinguishment of any Public Assistance or EAHF Loan, any
mortgage securing the same, and any other security instruments placed of record in connection
with the Public Assistance or EAHF Loan and to survive the termination of any subsequent
financing or security instruments placed of record by other lenders. This Declaration
automatically ceases to be of any force or effect on the date fifteen (15) year anniversary of the
Commencement Date without the execution or recording of any additional documents
Article V
REPRESENTATIVES OF BENEFITED PARTIES

representative(s) of any and all other persons or entities also benefited by the covenants,
I-5
4847-5934-5479\16
conditions and restrictions of this Declaration, insofar as the enforcement, the construction, the
interpretation, the amendment, the release and/or the termination of such covenants, conditions
and restrictions are concerned. This designation and appointment shall also run with the Property
and the Project and is hereby made and agreed to by Declarant, its successors and assigns, and
any subsequent transferee of any interest in the Project, or any part thereof, from Declarant.
Article VI
Remedies, Enforceability
Section 6.1 In the event of a violation or attempted violation of any of the covenants,
conditions or restrictions herein contained, the Authority or the City may institute and prosecute
any proceeding at law or in equity to abate, prevent or enjoin any such violation or to specifically
enforce the covenants, conditions and restrictions therein set forth, or to recover monetary
damages caused by such violation or attempted violation. Unless terminated as provided herein,
the provisions hereof are imposed upon and made applicable to the Project, and shall be
enforceable against Declarant, each purchaser, grantee, owner or lessee of the Project and the
respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of each. No delay in enforcing the
provisions of said covenants, conditions and restrictions as to any breach or violation shall
impair, damage or waive the right to enforce the same or to obtain relief against or recover for
the continuation or repetition of such breach or violation or any similar breach or violation
thereof at any later time or times.
Article VII
AMENDMENT, TERMINATION OF COVENANTS
Section 7.1 The provisions of this Declaration shall not be amended, terminated or
deleted during the Term hereof, except by an instrument in writing duly executed by the
Authority, the City, and Declarant, their respective successors and assigns, or in accordance with
Section 7.2 of this Article VII.
Section 7.2 Unless sooner terminated, amended or deleted as provided in this Article
VII, the covenants, conditions and restrictions contained herein shall continue in full force and
effect through the Term hereof and shall thereupon terminate and be of no further force or effect.
Article VIII
Covenants Running with the Land
Section 8.1 Declarant intends, declares and covenants, on behalf of itself and all future
owners and operators of the Property and the Project during the Term of this Declaration, that
this Declaration and the covenants and restrictions set forth in this Declaration regulating and
restricting the use, occupancy and transfer of the Property and the Project (i) shall be and are
covenants running with the Property and the Project, encumbering the Property and the Project

I-6
4847-5934-5479\16
Declarant; and (iii) shall bind Declarant (and the benefits shall inure to the Authority and the
City) and its respective successors and assigns during the Term of this Declaration. Declarant
hereby agrees that any and all requirements of the laws of the State of Minnesota to be satisfied
in order for the provisions of this Declaration to constitute deed restrictions and covenants
running with the land shall be deemed to be satisfied in full and that any requirements of
privileges of estate are intended to be satisfied, or in the alternate, that an equitable servitude has
been created to insure that these restrictions run with the land. For the Term of this Declaration,
each and every contract, deed or other instrument hereafter executed conveying the Property and
the Project or portion thereof shall expressly provide that such conveyance is subject to this
Declaration; provided, however, that the covenants contained herein shall survive and be
effective regardless of whether such contract, deed or other instrument hereafter executed

subject to this Declaration.

C. Pursuant to the Contract, the parties agreed to execute this Agreement to provide a

other funds listed in Section 6.4(c) of the Contract (“Funds”) to fund construction costs for the
North Site Improvements.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and
agreements hereinafter set forth, it is agreed by and among the parties hereto as follows:
1. From time to time, and in accordance with the Contract, the Authority will deposit

commitment for ALTA owner’s and loan title insurance policies (the “Commitment”),
which shall set forth the conditions of title to those portions of the North Site which will

the terms of the Contract. It is acknowledged and agreed by the parties hereto that the
K-2
4847-5934-5479\16
disbursement process set forth herein is intended to help ensure that the Developer Lots
and North Site Commercial Elements will remain free of mechanics’ liens and, upon the
Developer’s acquisition of the Developer Lots and North Site Commercial Elements, the
title insurance policies to be issued pursuant to the Commitment will include mechanic’s
lien coverage.
(b) The Authority shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Title Company:
(i) A sworn statement of the Authority disclosing the contracts
entered into by the Authority in connection with the North Site
Improvements, the work and materials to be furnished, the
amounts paid to them thereon, and the balance due thereon, and the
name and address of the general contractor, or contractors
contracted to perform the North Site Improvements (collectively,
the “General Contractor”).
(ii) A sworn statement of the General Contractor setting forth the
names of all subcontractors and material suppliers with whom the
General Contractor has contracted in connection with the North
Site Improvements, the addresses of the subcontractors and
suppliers, the work and materials furnished by the subcontractors
and suppliers, the amounts of the subcontracts, the amounts paid to
date thereon, and the balance due thereon.
3. Prior to each disbursement of Funds hereunder, the Authority shall cause to be
delivered to Title Company:
(a) A duly and properly authorized payment request (in form reasonably
acceptable to the Title Company) evidencing through attached invoices, receipts,
cancelled checks, or other evidence, reasonably acceptable to the Title Company that the
costs have been incurred and relate to the North Site Improvements (a “Payment
Request”). Each Payment Request will separately identify the amount of such costs
incurred with respect to the North Site Commercial Elements and to be paid from the
North Site Commercial Construction Deposit (“Developer Costs”) and the amount of
such costs incurred with respect to the North Ramp Improvements (“Authority Costs”).
Section 5 below will apply if costs with respect to the North Site Commercial Elements

requirements have been satisfied, and when all of the foregoing requirements have been
so satisfied, Title Company may disburse, without liability for so doing.
4. The Title Company shall pay such approved amounts to each contractor and
other person identified in the relevant Payment Request, less five percent (5%) retainage.
Retainage will be disbursed with the final disbursement. Soft costs incurred by the Developer or
the Authority in connection with the North Site Improvements already performed and permitted
by the Contract may be included in the first Payment Request, but there shall be no retainage on
the soft costs.
5. All disbursements for Developer Costs will be disbursed from the North Site
Commercial Construction Deposit and disbursements for Authority Costs will be disbursed first
from the net amount of the South Site Purchase Price and second from deposits of Funds
otherwise made by the Authority. If at any time during the course of construction of the North
Site Improvements, the total of the unpaid disclosed cost of the North Site Commercial
Elements, as indicated by the column totals on the Payment Requests, exceeds the amount of
the undisbursed amount of the North Site Commercial Construction Deposit, as calculated by
subtracting the total amount previously disbursed by Title Company from the original amount
of the North Site Commercial Construction Deposit, the Developer and City shall promptly
meet and work together in good faith to determine a mechanism to deposit with Title Company

Authority.

first Payment Request. It is anticipated that the construction duration of the North Site
Improvements will be [_______] months, and the Authority may allocate monthly installments
of the construction management fee accordingly; provided, however, that adjustments to the
allocation may be made by the Authority from time to time to account for any increase or
decrease in the construction management fee. Payments of reimbursable expenses, consultant
fees, or additional services charges due to the Construction Manager shall be paid through
draws from Funds on a monthly basis.
7. In no event shall the final disbursement be made until all conditions are satisfied
to enable Title Company to issue a title polices pursuant to the Commitment as provided in
K-4
4847-5934-5479\16
Section 2(a) in form reasonably acceptable to Developer and its lender.
8. The Authority shall be responsible for all fees due to Title Company as
compensation for its disbursing services herein.
9. The Title Company shall keep records showing the names of all parties to whom
disbursements are made by the Title Company, the date, the amount and purpose of such
disbursement, which records may be inspected by the Developer and the Authority.
10. If the Title Company shall determine in its reasonable judgment that proper
documentation to support a given disbursement as required by this Agreement has not been
furnished, the Title Company shall withhold payment of all or such portion of such
disbursement as shall not be so supported by proper documentation, and shall promptly notify
Developer and the Authority of the discrepancy in or omission of such documentation. Until
such time as such discrepancy or omission is corrected to the satisfaction of the Title Company,
it shall withhold such amount, unless otherwise directed in writing by the Authority.
11. Any notice required or permitted to be given by any party hereto to any other
party hereto under the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given as and when
provided for in the Contract, addressed to the party to which the notice is to be given at the
address set forth in the Contract, or to any other address in the United States of America
specified in a notice given by such party to the others not less than three (3) business days prior
to the effective date of the address change. Notices to the Title Company shall be addressed to
Commercial Partners Title, LLC [_______________________________________] and shall
otherwise be subject to the same notice requirements of the Contract.
12. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Title Company may not delegate its duties
hereunder. This Agreement is made solely by the signatory parties hereto, and no other persons
(except the successors and assigns of the signatory parties) shall have any right to rely on or
enforce or have the benefit of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota. This Agreement can be amended or modified

of counterparts, each of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.
