C. On July 10, 2008, City and Larkspur Associates, LLC, entered into a Development Agreement ("Original Agreement') for the Project described below, which included a certain number of condominium units. Developer is the current owner of a legal or equitable interest in the Property and is entitled to have filed the application for and to enter into this Amended Agreement to remove the condominium units from the Project. The Project consists of the future development of the Property. The Property is located at an important location in the City and the coordinated development of the Project pursuant to this Amended Agreement represents an important and mutually beneficial economic development and land usage planning opportunity for the City and Developer. 72500.00758\9804535.1 7/9/15 D. The City has determined that the development of the Project as contemplated by this Amended Agreement is consistent with and in furtherance of the development goals, policies, general land uses and development programs of the City as set forth in the City's General Plan, Commercial Core Area Specific Plan and is consistent with the existing zoning affecting the Properties. E. City has further determined that entry into this Amended Agreement will further the goals and objectives of the City's land use planning policies by, among other things, encouraging investment, providing precise and supplemental criteria for the uses, design, circulation and development of the Property, including flexibility in land use options which may be altered in order to respond to future changes in the surrounding areas, eliminating uncertainty in planning for, and securing orderly processing and development of the Project. The benefits conferred on the City by Developer herein will (i) insure consistent, comprehensive planning which will result in aesthetically pleasing, environmentally harmonious, and economically viable development within the City; (ii) provide for the creation of a high quality, aesthetically pleasing entry statement for the City; (iii) provide for the construction of storm water system improvements vital to the City; and (iv) further the development objectives of the City in an orderly manner, all of which will significantly promote the health, safety and welfare of the residents of the City. In exchange for these benefits to the City, Developer desires to receive the assurance that it may proceed with the Project in accordance with the Development Plan attached to this Amended Agreement as Exhibit "A", and at a rate of development of its choosing, subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Amended Agreement. 72500.00758\9804535.1 7/9/15 F.

G. By adopting this Amended Agreement, the City Council has elected to exercise certain governmental powers at the present time rather than deferring such actions until an undetermined future date and has done so intending to bind the City and the City Council and intending to limit the City's future exercise of certain governmental powers, to the extent permitted by law.

No express written waiver of any Event of Default shall affect any other Event of Default, or cover any other period of time specified in such express waiver. 8.4 Effect of Termination. Termination of this Amended Agreement by one party due to the other party's default, or as a result of the exercise of the right of termination provided to the Developer under Section 8.2 hereof, shall not affect any right or duty emanating, from any approvals, permits, certificates or other entitlements with respect to the Property or the Project which were issued, approved or provided by 72500.00758\9804535.1 7/9/15 the City prior to the date of termination of this Amended Agreement.
