WHEREAS, City, Master Developer, and Transferee entered into that certain Transferee Agreement effective as of May 17, 2021 (the "Original Agreement"), whereby City, Master Developer, and Transferee agreed to certain rights and obligations related to the Wheat State project as more particularly described in the Original Agreement; and WHEREAS, pursuant to the Original Agreement, City and Transferee agreed that Transferee shall complete construction of the Wheat State project by September 1, 2021; and WHEREAS, due to delays in commencement of the Wheat State project and upon further review of the project scope and timeline, City,Master Developer, and Transferee agreed to modify the project completion date to May31, 2022, as described in the FIRST AMENDMENT; and WHERAS, costs and delays continue to increase due to supply chain difficulties and inflation. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, conditions, promises and agreements set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, City, Master Developer, and Transferee agree as follows: 1. Incorporation and Definitions. This Second Amendment incorporates all of the terms and conditions from the Original Agreement and the First Amendment to the extent they are not amended, modified, or superseded by this Amendment. Capitalized terms in this Amendment shall have the meanings ascribed to those terms in the Original Agreement unless otherwise defined herein or the context otherwise dictates. 2. Section 7.a of the Original Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows: Conditions Precedent to Access Public Finance Proceeds. Prior to access to Public Finance Proceeds for purposes of partially financing the Transferee Project and the right to submit a Certification of Expenditures for reimbursement for Eligible Transferee Costs (as defined below) through Public Finance Proceeds pursuant to the provisions of the Development Agreement, Transferee must have obtained a Certificate of Completion for the Transferee Project as defined in Section 3.07 of the Development Agreement (the "Public Finance Access Condition"). Following Transferee's satisfaction of the Public Finance Access Condition, City and Master Developer will provide Transferee access to CID Proceeds up to a maximum of$811,625 from the New Retail Improvements CID Fund (the "Public Financing Cap"). The calculation of the Public Financing Cap is inclusive of both Eligible Transferee Costs in the maximum principal amount of$516,250.00 expended through development and completion of the Transferee Project (the "Principal Cap") and a straight-line calculation of amortized interest at a rate of 5% per annum on all Eligible Transferee Costs. 3. Section 7.e of the Original Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows: Public Finance Proceeds Annual Allotment. Pursuant to the terms of that certain Supplemental Agreement, Transferee's Public Finance Proceeds Annual Allotment from the New Retail Improvements CID Fund is$42,717 of CID Proceeds. Such Public Finance Proceeds Annual Allotment shall only be reimbursed to the Transferee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Development Agreement, and the Supplemental Agreement. For purposes of clarification, in no event shall interest accrue upon certified Eligible Transferee Costs, and in event of a shortfall in CID Proceeds available to fund Transferee's Public Finance Proceeds Annual Allotment in any given year of the Term no interest shall be added to or compound upon any deficit in funding Transferee's Public Finance Proceeds Annual Allotment in such year. 4. Section 7.f of the Original Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows: (i) Reimbursement Amount to the Transferee. In addition to the foregoing conditions applicable to the disbursement of CID Proceeds to the Transferee,the CID Proceeds available to Transferee for reimbursement of the Principal Cap portion of the Public Financing Cap shall not exceed thirty-five percent (35%) of the amount of the actual costs expended by Transferee to develop the Transferee Project ("Total Project Costs"). The remainder of all Total Project Costs, in an amount no less than sixty-five percent (65%) of such Total Project Costs, shall be paid by Transferee through a combination of private debt and equity (the "Private Contribution"). In other words, there shall not be more than thirty-five percent (35%) of Total Project Costs paid with CID Proceeds, exclusive of interest to be paid on the Principal Cap portion of the Public Financing Cap (the "Public Finance Limitation"). (ii) The Certification of Expenditures submitted by Transferee shall include evidence of payment for Total Project Costs paid with the Private Contribution in an amount which is no less than thirty-five percent 2 (35%) of the Total Project Costs incurred at the time of such Certification of Expenditures in order to satisfy the Public Finance Limitation. In the event that the ratio of the Principal Cap portion of the Public Financing Cap and the Total Project Costs certified in the Certification of Expenditures exceeds the Public Finance Limitation, Transferee's Public Financing Cap shall be reduced pro rata so that the ratio of such amended Public Financing Cap to Total Project Costs equals the Public Finance Limitation. The reduction to Transferee's total Public Financing Cap pursuant to this paragraph shall not alter Transferee's Public Finance Proceeds Annual Allotment. 5. Ratification. Except as modified by this Amendment and prior Amendments and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Original Agreement,the parties ratify all the terms and conditions set forth in the Original Agreement and acknowledge that the Original Agreement is in full force and effect, there are no existing defaults thereunder, and the Original Agreement is binding on the parties thereto.
