ARTICLE 1
GENERAL PROVISIONS
1.1 Binding Effect of Agreement. The Property is hereby made subject to
this Agreement, which, with respect to the Property and only the Property, is intended to amend
and restate the Initial Development Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of
this Agreement and the terms of the Initial Development Agreement, the terms of this
Agreement shall control. Furthermore, and with respect to the Property only, the rights,
interests, obligations and responsibilities of the Owners and the City, and any covenants,
conditions or restrictions applicable to the Property, arising from or under the Initial
Development Agreement, are replaced in their entirety by the rights, interests, obligations and
responsibilities of the Owners and the City, and any covenants, conditions or restrictions
applicable to the Property, as set forth herein.
1.2 Ownership of Property. Owners represent, covenant and warrant that
they are the owners of fee simple title to their respective parcels comprising the Property as

in default of its obligations hereunder or under any agreement contemplated hereunder or
otherwise with respect to any Project Approvals (as hereafter defined), and provided the
Development Commitments (as hereafter defined) have been and, if applicable, continue to be
satisfied and complied with, City agrees to reasonably consider an extension of the Term of this
Agreement with respect to and upon the written request of such Owner for an additional five (5)
year increment. Any such consideration by the City of an extension of the Term will require a
determination by the City, in its sole discretion, that there has been no material change in the
attendant facts and circumstances relating to the Project that would make or warrant a material
change to the Project as currently contemplated advisable from the City's perspective.
1.4 Assignment, Sale and Transfer of Interest in parcels of the Property
and this Agreement. Owners shall have the right to assign, sell or transfer their portion of the
Property in whole or in part at any time during the term of this Agreement; provided, however,

homebuying public, (b) Palm Desert Villa Portofino Homeowners' Association, a California non-
profit mutual benefit corporation, being the homeowners' association previously established for
the Project other than the Portola Parcel ("HOA" ), with respect to easements and common
areas, or (c) a lender who will obtain a security interest in all or any portion of the Property
(collectively and as so qualified, "Exempt Parties") shall include the assignment and assumption
of the respective rights, duties and obligations of the assigning, selling or transferring Owner
arising under or from this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly contemplated hereunder,
no sale, transfer or assignment of any right or interest under this Agreement to any party that is
not one of the Exempt Parties shall be made unless made together with the sale, transfer or
assignment of all or a part of the Property. Each Owner shall notify the City in the event of such
Owner's sale or transfer of any portion of the Property to any party that is not one of the Exempt
Parties. Failure to provide notice of sale or transfer when required hereunder shall be grounds
for termination of this Agreement as it relates to the Owner in violation hereof, at absolute
discretion of City.
72500.00791 \7577720.1
1.5 Amendment or Cancellation of Agreement. Except as otherwise
provided herein, this Agreement may be amended or canceled in whole or in part only by written
consent of all Parties in the manner provided for in California Government Code Section 65868;
provided, however, City's Director of Community Development may, in his/her sole discretion,
make and approve minor technical, non -substantive modifications to this Agreement as
requested by an Owner so long as the other Owners and their portion of the Property will not be
materially and adversely affected by such modification (the "Minor Modification Qualification").

and of no further effect upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
1.6.1 Expiration of the Term of this Agreement as set forth in Section 1.3.

applicable to the Project prior to such termination. Upon the termination of this Agreement, no
Party shall have any further right or obligation hereunder, except with respect to: (i) any
obligation to have been performed by such Party prior to such termination, (ii) any default in the
performance of the provisions of this Agreement by such Party which occurred prior to such
termination, or (iii) any obligations of such Party which are specifically set forth herein as
surviving the termination of this Agreement.

the City's Director of Public Works and Fire Marshall, which requirements shall include, but not
be limited to:
(1) The driveway apron shall be fully improved;
(2) A survey must be completed and approved to center the

City's Director of Public Works and may be revoked at any time, and further provided
that (A) any construction traffic use of the emergency vehicle access road shall utilize
transponders or other means to actuate the VDP Gate (as hereafter defined) for the
passing of each construction vehicle, (B) the VDP Gate shall not be left open at any
time, except for Fire Department emergencies, and (C) Designated Owner shall ensure

(4) A crash gate with a knox box shall be located where the

agree to be bound by the Second Amended and Restated Declaration of Condominium for Villa
Portofino dated September 25, 2007 and recorded December 28, 2007 as Document No. 2007-
0769813 with the Riverside County Clerk and Recorder, as same has been modified prior to the
Effective Date (the "Existing CC&R"s), pursuant to a recorded instrument in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the City recorded prior to or concurrent with this Agreement and prior
to the issuance of any additional building permits for the Project (the "CC&R Acknowledgement
Obligation"). The CC&R Acknowledgement Obligation shall require that Designated Owner
execute any future amendment to the Existing CC&Rs to clarify the property ownership
descriptions in the Existing CC&Rs.
2.2.3 Portola Avenue Improvements/Full Improvements to the
Secondary Access: Concurrent with the recording of this Agreement and the Final Map
applicable to the Project derived from and based upon the TTM ("Project Final Map"), Country
Club Drive Investors will dedicate right-of-way along Portola Avenue and Country Club Drive to
the City as required by the Development Approvals (such dedication and acceptance by the City
being referred to herein as the "Portola Dedication"). The land that is the subject of the Portola
Dedication is depicted on Exhibit "C" attached hereto (the "Portola Dedication Land").
Concurrent with the recording of the Project Final Map, each Owner will provide to the City and
the Party performing the underlying work, a construction access easement with terms
reasonably acceptable to the applicable Parties thereto, if and to the extent required, to provide
for the construction of the Portola Improvements (as hereafter defined). Prior to the recording of
the Project Final Map, Designated Owner shall enter into an Improvement Agreement with the
City substantially in the form of Exhibit "D" attached hereto (the "Improvement Agreement"),
which Improvement Agreement (a) shall address construction of (i) street improvements along
Portola Avenue as required by the Development Approvals ("Portola Improvements"), and (ii)
full improvements to the secondary access on and across the Portola Parcel to Portola Avenue
as required by the Development Approvals ("Secondary Access Permanent Improvements"),
and (b) shall be secured by a single improvement bond in the amount reasonably acceptable to
the City securing the design and construction of the Portola Improvements and the Secondary
Access Permanent Improvements in compliance with the Improvement Agreement (the
"Improvement Bond"). Once the Secondary Access Permanent Improvements have been
installed, any access and use restrictions set forth in Section 2.2.1 hereof shall no longer apply
and the portion of such road on the Portola Parcel may be utilized by the Owners and their
successors, assigns, contractors and invitees; provided, however, that the VDP Gate (or a
replacement or enhancement thereof) shall not be removed and entry upon the VP Land Parcel
and the VP Builders Parcel shall be restricted to the use and access for ingress and egress
purposes of emergency and construction vehicles and for the use and access of the owners of
all or any portion of the Property other than the Portola Parcel, and their successors,
mortgagees, lessees, licensees, contractors, guests and invitees, for pedestrian, bicycle and
vehicular (including construction vehicles) access, ingress and egress; provided, however,
nothing herein shall be deemed to restrict the use of the Owner of the Portola Parcel and the
successors, assigns, contractors and invitees of such Owner, and the residents of the Portola
Parcel, for purposes other than access to the VP Land Parcel and the VP Builders Parcel. The
72500.00791\7577720.1
Parties intend that the Improvement Bond will be posted upon execution of the Improvement
Agreement and Designated Owner agrees to utilize commercially reasonable best efforts to
procure such Improvement Bond prior to the occurrence of the Portola Dedication; provided,
however, that in the event that the bonding company rejects Designated Owner's application for
such Improvement Bond because neither the City nor Designated Owner then own the Portola
Dedication Land, as evidenced by a written notice of rejection of Designated Owner's underlying
application for the improvement Bond from such bonding company, or if such bonding company
requires that the Portola Dedication occurs before such Improvement Bond becomes active,
City shall permit Designated Owner to procure the Improvement Bond in active form promptly
following the occurrence of the Portola Dedication; provided, however, that no additional
building permits shall be issued for the Project until such Improvement Bond is procured and
active.
2.2.4 Bond per Improvement Agreement: The Improvement
Agreement and the Improvement Bond shall provide, to City's satisfaction, for completion of the
Portola Improvements and the Secondary Access Permanent Improvements by the date two (2)
years after the Effective Date of this Agreement but in any event prior to issuance of any
building or grading permits for the Portola Parcel not specifically related to the Portola
Improvements and the Secondary Access Permanent Improvements. Ownership of all or any
portion of the Portola Parcel shall not be transferred prior to the occurrence of the Portola
Dedication. If the Portola Improvements and/or the Secondary Access Permanent
Improvements are not completed in a timely manner by Designated Owner in accordance with
the standards set forth in the Improvement Agreement, the City shall have the right to withhold
building permits, certificates of occupancy, inspections, and plan check review with respect to
the Project until such time as the Portola Improvements and the Secondary Access Permanent
Improvements have been completed. The City shall have the right to use the applicable bond to
complete the remaining/incomplete Portola Improvements and/or the Secondary Access
Permanent Improvements, and upon completion, issuance of permits and certificates, and
performance of inspections will resume.
2.2.5 Country Club Wall: The Project's perimeter wall along County
Club Drive shall be repaired by the Party owning the underlying land before issuance of any
additional building permits for the Project. The perimeter wall shall be extended along the
Project's north property line to the adjoining City parcel (that has been developed as a fire
station) by Country Club Drive Investors per plans approved by the City prior to the issuance of
building permits for the Portola Parcel other than any such building permits that may be required
in connection with the construction of the access road across the Portola Parcel or the Portola
Improvements ("Country Club Wall Extension").
2.2.6 Landscaping: Prior to issuance of any additional building permits
for the Project, Designated Owner shall enter into a long-term landscaping maintenance
agreement, in a form reasonably acceptable to the City, for maintenance of landscaping fronting
the Project on Country Club Drive, including the median, and all retention basins within the
Project (the "Landscaping Maintenance Agreement"). The Landscaping Maintenance
Agreement may be assigned by Designated Owner to the HOA. Prior to the issuance of the first
certificate of occupancy or completion for the Portola Parcel, Country Club Drive Investors shall
enter into a long-term landscaping maintenance agreement, in a form reasonably acceptable to
the City, for maintenance of landscaping fronting the Project on Portola Avenue (the "Portola
Landscaping Maintenance Agreement").

signal maintenance agreement providing that Owners will pay to the City twenty five percent
(25%) of the costs related to energy, maintenance and repair of the traffic signal at Country Club
Drive and Via Portofino/Palm Greens Parkway (the "Signal Maintenance Agreement"). The
Signal Maintenance Agreement may be assigned by Designated Owner to the HOA.
2.2.8 Affordable Housing In -Lieu Payment: As an affordable housing
in -lieu payment each Owner shall pay $1,166 per residential unit constructed on their respective
portion of the Property prior to the City's issuance of a certificate of occupancy for or applicable
to such unit(s) (the "In -Lieu Fee"); provided, however, that with respect to the Portola Parcel, the
unit breakdown for which the In -Lieu Fee is due shall be as follows: Lot 3 of the Portola Parcel
shall contribute the In -Lieu Fee for 75 units (Skilled Nursing) and Lot 4 of the Portola Parcel
shall contribute the In -Lieu Fee for 80 units (Assisted Living). No additional In -Lieu Fee shall be
due with respect to the Portola Parcel.
2.3 Rights to Develop. Subject to the terms, conditions, and covenants of
this Agreement, each Owner's right to develop their portion of the Project in accordance with the
Development Approvals (and subject to the Conditions of Approval) shall be deemed vested
upon complete execution of (1) this Agreement, and (2) the Improvement Agreement, which
vesting shall expire with respect to an Owner and their portion of the Property upon the earlier of
the following occurrences: (a) termination of this Agreement with respect to such Owner
pursuant to the terms hereof; (b) an uncured material default of this Agreement by such Owner;
(c) an uncured material default under the Improvement Agreement, subject to the City providing
notice to the Owner of such default and a reasonable cure period; or (d) as to a particular
phase, parcel, or lot comprising a portion of the Project, the earlier of the final approved City
inspection of the completed development on such phase, parcel, or lot, or the issuance by the
City of a certificate of occupancy for the last improvement to be occupied on such phase, parcel,
or lot. Additionally, (aa) in the event of and during the period of an uncured default under the
Landscaping Maintenance Agreement or the Signal Maintenance Agreement, and subject to the
City providing notice of such default and a reasonable cure period to the Owners, the City shall
have the right to withhold building permits, certificates of occupancy, inspections, and plan
check review with respect to the Project, and (bb) in the event of and during the period of an
uncured default under the Portola Landscaping Maintenance Agreement, and subject to the City
providing notice of such default and a reasonable cure period to Country Club Drive Investors,
the City shall have the right to withhold building permits, certificates of occupancy, inspections,
and plan check review with respect to the Portola Parcel. So long as this Agreement remains in
full force and effect, and subject to the terms of the preceding sentence, City agrees with
respect to the Project to issue building permits and certificates of occupancy and to conduct
inspections and review plans and submittals in the ordinary course, and to cooperate with
Owners with respect to satisfying any other approvals or authorizations required by the Existing
Development Regulations (as hereafter defined) and any applicable New Laws (as hereafter
defined). Except for the expiration set forth in clause (a) of the preceding sentence, the
expiration of the vesting right set forth in the preceding sentence shall not terminate the
obligations of Owners under this Agreement. Except as explicitly modified by this Agreement,
and except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Project shall remain subject to the
following, to the same extent it would without this Agreement:
(i) all ordinances, regulations, rules, laws, plans, policies, and guidelines of

after the Effective Date of this Agreement and all ordinances, regulations, rules, laws, plans,
policies, and guidelines of the City and its City Council, Planning Commission, and all other City
boards, commissions, and committees enacted or adopted after the Effective Date of this
Agreement (collectively, "New Laws"), except such New Laws which would prevent or materially
impair Owner's ability to develop and construct the Project in accordance with the Development
Approvals, unless such New Laws are (A) adopted by the City on a City wide -basis, with no
exceptions or grandfather clause of any kind applicable to similar developments, and applied to
the Site in a non-discriminatory manner, (B) required by a non -City governmental entity to be
adopted by or applied by the City to the Project (or, if adoption is optional, if the failure to adopt
or apply such non -City governmental law or regulation and apply same to the Project would
cause the City to be in violation of state of federal law, or to sustain a loss of funds or loss of
access to funding or other resources or subject to any penalty not reimbursed in full by the
Owners), or (C) New Laws that have been adopted by City Council as of the Effective Date but
have not been finally approved by the Effective Date beyond any challenge or appeal period,
but only to the extent the City specifically reserves the right to apply same to the Project under
this Agreement.
(iii) all subsequent development approvals and the conditions of approval
associated therewith, including but not limited to any further site development permits, tract

(iv) the payment of all fees or exactions in the categories and in the amounts

(v) the reservation or dedication of land for public purposes or payment of
fees in lieu thereof as required at the time such reservations or dedications or payments in lieu

2.3.1 Additional Applicable Codes and Regulations. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, the City also reserves the right to apply the following to the
development of the Project:
Building, electrical, mechanical, fire and similar building codes based upon uniform
codes adopted in, or incorporated by reference into, the Palm Desert Municipal Code, as
existing on the Effective Date of this Agreement or as may be enacted or amended thereafter,
applied to the Project in a nondiscriminatory manner.
In the event of fire or other casualty requiring construction of more than fifty (50%)
percent of any building previously constructed hereunder, nothing herein shall prevent the City
from applying to such reconstruction, all requirements of the City's Building, Electrical,
Mechanical, and similar building codes based upon uniform codes adopted in, or incorporated
by reference into, the Palm Desert Municipal Code, solely to the extent applicable to all
development projects in the City.
72500.00791\7577720.1
This Agreement shall not prevent the City from establishing any new City fees on a City-
wide basis and applied to the Project in a non-discriminatory manner on a go forward basis,
including new development impact fees, or increasing any existing City fees, including existing
development impact fees, and to apply such new or increased fees to the Project or applicable
portion thereof where such new or increased fees may be charged.
2.3.2 Owners' Obligations Regarding Conditions of Approval. The Owners
shall comply with the Conditions of Approval for the Development Approvals. Owners
acknowledge that additional conditions of approval beyond those set forth in Exhibit "B" may be
applicable to the Project if imposed in conjunction with future Project Approvals; provided,
however, that no additional conditions of approval or restrictions arising in connection with any
such future Project Approvals shall attach to, condition or restrict any portion of the Property
unless the underlying Owner is a party to or consents in writing to the application or submittal to
the City seeking any such future Project Approvals. An Owner's failure to comply with the
Conditions of Approval as they relate to such Owner's Property shall be a material breach of this
Agreement by such Owner and grounds for its termination with respect to such Owner and such
Owner's portion of the Property pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof.
2.3.3 Grading Plans/Pad Heights. Owners shall submit precise grading plans
for review and approval of the City. Pad elevations on the precise grading plans for the VP Land
Parcel and the VP Builders Parcel shall conform to the range of elevations shown on the
preliminary grading plans approved by the City Planning Commission.
2.4 Changes and Amendments. The Parties acknowledge that refinement and
further development of the Project will require subsequent development approvals and may
demonstrate that changes are appropriate and mutually desirable in the Development
Approvals, except that minor modifications to the Development Agreement, as determined by
the Director of Community Development to not be a substantial change in the proposed Project
or conditions of approval, can be approved by the Director of Community Development. In the
event an Owner finds that a non -minor modification in the Development Approvals is necessary
or appropriate as same relates to their Property, then subject to the Minor Modification
Qualification, such Owner may apply for a subsequent development approval to effectuate such
change and City shall process and act on such application if consistent with the terms hereof
except as otherwise provided by this Agreement.
2.5 Modification or Suspension by State or Federal Law. In the event that state or
federal laws or regulations, enacted after the Effective Date of this Agreement, prevent or
preclude compliance with one or more of the provisions of this Agreement, such provisions of
this Agreement shall be modified or suspended as may be necessary to comply with such state
or federal laws or regulations, provided, however, that this Agreement shall remain in full force
and effect to the extent it is not inconsistent with such laws or regulations and to the extent such
laws or regulations do not render such remaining provisions impractical to enforce.
2.6 Intent and Purpose. The Parties acknowledge and agree that City is restricted
in its authority to limit its police power by contract and that the foregoing limitations, reservations
and exceptions are intended to reserve to City all of its police power which cannot be so limited.
This Agreement shall be construed, contrary to its stated terms if necessary, to reserve to City
all such power and authority which cannot be restricted by contract pursuant to applicable law.
72500.00791\7577720.1
The provisions of this Agreement and benefits to be received by City and Owners
hereunder are in the best interests of City and the health, safety, morals and welfare of its
taxpayers and residents and are in accordance with the public purposes set forth in federal,
state and local laws and regulations, including California Government Code Section 565865.
The Parties hereby acknowledge that implementation of this Agreement and the resulting
development of the Property will result in substantial public benefits that justify City's decision to
execute this Agreement. These benefits include, but are not limited to, furtherance of the goals
and objectives of the City's General Plan applicable to the Property, and the strengthening of
the City's land use and social structure by stimulating economic activity and job creation within
the City.
ARTICLE 3
REMEDIES
3.1 Remedies. Each of the Parties hereto may pursue any remedy at law or equity
available for the breach of any provision of this Agreement. However, the City shall not be liable
under any circumstances for monetary damages for any breach of this Agreement or for any
cause of action which arises out of this Agreement.
3.2 Specific Performance/Self Help. The Parties acknowledge that although
money damages are available to the City for a breach of this Agreement, such money damages
and other remedies at law generally are inadequate and specific performance and other
non -monetary relief, including temporary and permanent injunctive relief, are particularly
appropriate remedies for the enforcement of this Agreement by any Party and should be
available to such Party because it may be difficult and impracticable to determine the sum of
money which would adequately compensate such Party for breaches of this Agreement; the
Parties acknowledge and agree that any injunctive or equitable relief may be ordered on an
expedited, priority basis. Additionally, each Owner shall have the right of self-help (including
reasonable access rights) hereunder and under any agreements referenced herein to cure any
default by another Owner herein or therein if such default by such other Owner would materially
and adversely affect such non -defaulting Owner. In the event an Owner exercises such right of
self help, the defaulting Owner shall reimburse the non -defaulting Owner for any and all costs
associated with the exercise of such self help remedy upon demand, and the non -defaulting
Owner shall have the right to record a lien on the defaulting Owner's portion of the Property to
secure payment of such costs.
3.3 Termination. Subject to Section 4.8 hereof, the failure of an Owner to complete
or satisfy in a timely manner the Conditions of Approval applicable to such Owner per section
2.3.2, or the Development Commitments applicable to such Owner, shall constitute a material
breach of this Agreement and entitle the City to terminate this Agreement with respect to such
Owner, at its absolute discretion, if such breach is not cured following notice of such breach and
a reasonable opportunity to cure same (which cure period shall not be, in any event, less than
30 days). For the purposes of this section 3.3, the Development Commitments shall be deemed
to apply to all of the Owner except that (a) the CC&R Acknowledgement Obligation shall not be
deemed to apply to Country Club Drive Investors, and (b) the Country Club Wall Extension and
any obligations arising from or in connection with the Portola Landscaping Maintenance
Agreement shall not be deemed to apply to VP Land or VP Builders.
72500.00791\7577720.1
ARTICLE 4
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
4.1 Recordation of Agreement. This Agreement and any amendment or
cancellation thereof shall be recorded with the Riverside County Recorder within the period
required by Government Code Section 65868.5.
4.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth and contains the entire
understanding and agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there
are no oral or written representations, understandings or ancillary covenants, undertakings or
agreements which are not contained or expressly referred to herein. No testimony or evidence
of any such representations, understandings or covenants shall be admissible in any
proceeding of any kind or nature to interpret or determine the terms or conditions of this
Agreement.
4.3 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement
shall be determined invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be
affected thereby to the extent such remaining provisions are not rendered impractical to perform
taking into consideration the purposes of this Agreement.
4.4 Interpretation and Governing Law. This Agreement and any dispute arising
hereunder shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of
California, without regard to conflicts of laws principles (if applicable). This Agreement shall be
construed as a whole according to its fair language and common meaning to achieve the
objectives and purposes of the Parties hereto, and the rule of construction to the effect that
ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting Party shall not be employed in interpreting
this Agreement, all Parties having been represented by counsel in the negotiation and
preparation hereof.
4.5 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence in the performance of the provisions
of this Agreement as to which time is an element.
4.6 Waiver. Failure by a Party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the
provisions of this Agreement by another Party, or the failure by a Party to exercise its rights
upon the default of another Party, shall not constitute a waiver of such Party's right to insist and
demand strict compliance by such other Party with the terms of this Agreement thereafter.
4.7 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is made and entered into for the
sole protection and benefit of the Parties and their successors and assigns. No other person
shall have any right of action based upon any provision of this Agreement.
4.8 Force Majeure. No Party shall be deemed to be in default where failure or delay
in performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement is caused by floods, earthquakes,
other Acts of God, fires, wars, riots or similar hostilities, strikes and other labor difficulties
beyond the Party's control, (including the Party's employment force), government regulations,
court actions (such as restraining orders or injunctions), another Party's breach of this
Agreement, or other causes beyond the Party's control.
72500.00791\7577720.1
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the issuance of a court order
enjoining development of the Project incident to any legal proceeding by a third party to
challenge the modifications to the Development Approvals as described in this Agreement or to
challenge any action taken by City in connection therewith, the Term of this Agreement shall
automatically be extended for the period equal to the period of the pendency of such order.
4.9 Mutual Covenants. The covenants contained herein are mutual covenants and
also constitute conditions to the concurrent or subsequent performance by the Party benefited
thereby of the covenants to be performed hereunder by such benefited Party.
4.10 Successors in Interest. The burdens of this Agreement shall be binding upon,
and the benefits of this Agreement shall inure to, all successors in interest to the parties to this
Agreement. All provisions of this Agreement shall be enforceable as equitable servitudes and
constitute covenants running with the land. Each covenant to do or refrain from doing some act
hereunder with regard to development of the Property: (a) is for the benefit of and is a burden
upon every portion of the Property; (b) runs with the Property and each portion thereof; and (c)
is binding upon each Party and each successor in interest during their ownership of the Property
or any portion thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall be deemed to have
automatically terminated without any further actions required by any of the Parties upon (a) the
closing of the sale of any condominium unit within the Project to a member of the homebuying
public, but only with respect to such condominium unit and the buyer thereof, and (b) the
conveyance of any Project common areas to the HOA, but only with respect to such Project
common areas and the HOA.
4.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties in counterparts,
which counterparts shall be construed together and have the same effect as if all of the parties
had executed the same instrument.
4.12 Project as a Private Undertaking. It is specifically understood and agreed by
and between the parties hereto that the development of the Project is a private development,
that no Party is acting as the agent of any other Party in any respect hereunder, and that each
Party is an independent contracting entity with respect to the terms, covenants and conditions
contained in this Agreement. No partnership, joint venture or other association of any kind is
formed by this Agreement with respect to any Parties hereto. The only relationship between
City and Owners is that of a government entity regulating the development of private property
and the owners of such property.
4.13 Further Actions and Instruments. Each of the parties shall cooperate with and
provide reasonable assistance to the other to the extent contemplated hereunder in the
performance of all obligations under this Agreement and the satisfaction of the conditions of this
Agreement. Upon the request of any Party at any time, the other parties shall promptly execute,
with acknowledgment or affidavit if reasonably required, and file or record such required
instruments and writings and take any actions as may be reasonably necessary under the terms
of this Agreement to carry out the intent and to fulfill the provisions of this Agreement or to
evidence or consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The provisions of
this section shall not require the taking of any actions which are prohibited by law or, except as
expressly set forth in this Agreement, impair the lawful discretion of City as to those matters to
which the law imparts discretion to City.
72500.00791\7577720.1
4.14 Attorneys' Fees. If legal action is brought by any Party against the others for
breach of this Agreement, or to compel performance under this Agreement, the prevailing Party
shall be entitled to an award of reasonable attorneys' fees and litigation costs in addition to all
other relief to which it may be entitled.
4.15 Cooperation in the Event of Legal Challenge.
4.15.1 The filing of any third party lawsuit(s) against City or Owners relating to
this Agreement, the Development Approvals or any other Project related approvals (collectively
"Project Approvals") or other development issues affecting the Property shall not delay or stop
the development, processing or construction of the Project or approval of any subsequent
approvals, unless the third party obtains a court order preventing the activity. City shall not
stipulate to or cooperate in the issuance of any such order.
4.15.2 In the event of any administrative, legal or equitable action instituted by a
third party challenging the validity of any provision of this Development Agreement, the
procedures leading to its adoption, or the Project Approvals for the Project ("Project Challenge"),
each Owner and City shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to elect whether or not to defend
such action on its own behalf. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Designated
Owner shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the City (including its agents, officers and
employees) from a Project challenge with counsel chosen by the City, subject to Designated
Owner's approval of counsel, which shall not be unreasonably denied, and at Designated
Owner's sole expense; provided, however, that the City shall be responsible for salaries,
benefits, administrative and overhead expenses incurred by the City in connection with any
such defense (the "Defense and Indemnity Obligation"). If the City is aware of such an action or
proceeding, it shall promptly notify Owners and cooperate in the defense. Designated Owner
upon such notification shall deposit with City sufficient funds in the judgment of City Finance
Director to cover the expense of the Defense and Indemnity Obligation without any offset or
claim against said deposit to assure that the City expends no City funds, and City Finance
Director may require additional deposits if at any time the current deposits are insufficient to
assure that the City expends no City funds (the "Defense Deposit Obligation"). Any such
deposited funds not utilized by the City to defend a Project Challenge shall be promptly returned
to Designated Owner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Designated Owner nor VP
Builders shall have any obligation or responsibility hereunder pursuant to the Defense and
Indemnity Obligation or the Defense Deposit Obligation, in which case Country Club Drive
Investors shall be solely responsible fof satisfying the Defense and Indemnity Obligation and the
Defense Deposit Obligation (and entitled to a return of any unused funds), if (i) neither VP Land
nor VP Builders is then in default of any obligations under this Agreement or under any
agreement contemplated hereunder or otherwise with respect to any Project Approvals, and (ii)
such Project Challenge specifically involves and solely relates to the development of and/or the
construction upon the Portola Parcel or was solely caused or created by the act or omission of
Country Club Drive Investors (the "Designated Owner Exception"). If any Party elects to defend
a Project Challenge, the Parties hereby agree to affirmatively cooperate in defending said
Project Challenge and to execute a joint defense and confidentiality agreement in order to share
and protect information, under the joint defense privilege recognized under applicable law. As
part of the cooperation in defending a Project Challenge, the Parties shall coordinate their
defense in order to make the most efficient use of legal counsel and to share and protect
information. Each Party shall have sole discretion to terminate its defense of a Project
Challenge at any time. The City shall not settle any third party litigation of Project Approvals
without Designated Owner's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
72500.00791 \7577720.1
G � V
conditioned or delayed, unless Designated Owner fails to deposit sufficient funds to assure
defense and indemnity of the City. If Designated Owner is responsible hereunder for satisfying
the Defense and Indemnity Obligation and the Defense Deposit Obligation because the
Designated Owner Exception does not apply, Country Club Drive Investors, although not
responsible to City hereunder for satisfying the Defense and Indemnity Obligation or the
Defense Deposit Obligation, shall be responsible for reimbursing Designated Owner upon
demand for 28% of the funds required from Designated Owner to satisfy the Defense and
Indemnity Obligation and the Defense Deposit Obligation in accordance herewith before taking
into account any reimbursement from other Owners (the "CCDI Reimbursement Obligation"),
and VP Builders shall be responsible for reimbursing Designated upon demand for 36% (or as
otherwise agreed to by VP Land and VP Builders) of such required funds, which obligations
shall be secured by lien rights in favor of Designated Owner; provided, however, that -the CCDI
Reimbursement Obligation shall not apply, and Country Club Drive Investors shall have no
obligation or responsibility hereunder to the City or to VP Land nor VP Builders with respect to
any aspect of the Defense and Indemnity Obligation and the Defense Deposit Obligation if (x)
Country Club Drive Investors is not then in default of any obligations under this Agreement or
under any agreement contemplated hereunder or otherwise with respect to any Project
Approvals, and (y) such Project Challenge specifically involves and solely relates to the
development of and/or the construction upon the VP Land Parcel and/or the VP Builders Parcel
or was solely caused or created by the act or omission of VP Land and/or VP Builders.
4.16 Subsequent Amendment to Authorizing Statute. This Agreement has been
entered into in reliance upon the provisions of the Development Agreement Law in effect as of
the Effective Date. Accordingly, to the extent the subsequent amendment to the Development
Agreement Law would affect the provisions of this Agreement, such amendment shall not be
applicable to the Agreement unless necessary for this Agreement to be enforceable.
