Authority acknowledges and agrees that final terms and conditions relating to the payment of the Exemption Fee, including the agreed upon payment schedule, will be reflected in the Owner Operating Agreement and/or other agreements signed in connection with the closing of the financing for the Project. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event payment of Exemption Fee by Owner would cause the Project to violate any Investor or lender covenants as it relates to debt service coverage requirements, the Exemption Fee will be temporarily reduced so as to ensure that all applicable benchmarks imposed by Investor and/or lender(s) are achieved. (b) To the extent permissible under the tax exemption statute(s) applicable to the Project, Authority agrees to use the Exemption Fee for the purpose of providing services to the residents of the Project, which shall be provided in accordance with the terms of a resident services agreement between Owner and Authority with terms mutually acceptable to Developer and Authority.

If there are any existing Hazardous Materials (defined in Section 3.06) on the Site, or there are any existing violations of Environmental Law (defined in Section 3.07) with respect to the Site (collectively, such existing Hazardous Substances or violations of Environmental Law are an “Environmental Condition”), and any such Environmental Condition is known to Developer and Authority, as to the Developer prior to the date Developer or its contractors, employees or subcontractors have access to the site, and as to the Owner prior to the date the Site is leased to Owner, Authority shall be solely responsible for the costs of remediating such Environmental Condition, such costs to be reimbursed to the Authority at the financial closing. In the event the actual costs of remediating any known Environmental Condition exceeds the budgeted amount, or in the event there are any costs associated with remediating any unknown Environmental Condition (Le., an existing Environmental Condition not known until after the date the Site is leased to Owner), Authority shall be solely responsible for paying for such costs. Authority and Developer shall be jointly responsible (on a 50/50 basis) for any Environmental Condition that occurs on the Site after the date the Site is leased to Owner, unless such Environmental Condition is caused solely by Authority or Developer, in which event the party causing the Environmental Condition shall be solely responsible for all costs associated with the condition including, without limitation, all costs of remediating the Environmental Condition and any costs incurred by a third party (including the Investor or a lender) as a result of the Environmental Condition. The Ground Lease will provide that the Owner will indemnify Authority for any violations of Environmental Law arising from the acts or omissions of Owner and its contractors, subcontractors, agents and employees with respect to the Site after the effective date of the Ground Lease and for liabilities related to the presence of Hazardous Materials on the Site that are first introduced after the date of the Ground Lease, all on such terms as may be reasonably agreed to by Authority. 3.07 Hazardous Materials.

Section 651 et seq., as each is from time to time amended and hereafter in effect. 3.09 No Commitment of Funds, Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the parties agree and acknowledge that this Agreement does not constitute a commitment of funds or site approval, and that such commitment of funds or approval may occur only upon satisfactory completion of -6- environmental review and receipt by the Authority of a release of funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development under 24 C.F.R. Part § 58. The parties further agree that the provision of any funds to the project is conditioned on the Authority’s determination to proceed with, modify, or cancel the Project based on the results of a subsequent environmental review. The Developer agrees to comply with: The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (P.L. 91- 190) pursuant thereto 40 C.F.R. Parts 1500 — 1508; Environmental Review Procedures for the HOME Investments Partnership program, the RAD Program and the PBV Program pursuant to Title 24 C.F.R.

If other federal or non-federal funds are involved in an activity, then neither federal nor non-federal funds may be expended or committed by Agreement (conditional or not) for activities related to this project including design work, until the Authority provides written authorization based on approval of an ERR. No funds may be encumbered prior to the completion of the ERR. The ERR must be completed before any funds are obligated. Funding is also conditioned upon the completion of the ERR by address. The responsibility for certifying the appropriate ERR may rest with the Authority. It is the responsibility of the Developer to notify the Authority, and to refrain from making any commitments and expenditures on the site until a written authorization has been issued by the Authority.

Developer shall, as necessary, supplement the Development Schedule with schedules for submissions and responses of necessary deliverables associated with tasks covered by the Development Schedule, taking into account appropriate scheduling for submission, review and approval by the Authority. An updated Development Schedule will be provided to Authority when deemed necessary by Developer or when reasonably requested by Authority.

Developer shall cause the formation of a limited liability company (the “Owner”) to own and manage the Project. Developer shall cause the formation of a limited liability company to be the managing member of the Owner (the “Managing Member” or “MM”). In the event that the Authority will form an entity to serve as a member of the Owner, such entity will make a 168(h) election to be treated as a corporation. It is intended that the principal equity interest in the Owner will be owned by one or more tax credit investors (whether one ot more, the “Investor”). All agreements in connection with the admission of the Investor to the Owner shall be subject to the review and approval of Authority, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Authority acknowledges that Developer will be primarily responsible for negotiating such agreements with the Investor. It is anticipated that Developer or its affiliate will hold forty-nine percent (49%) of the limited liability company units in the MM and the Authority (or its affiliate) will hold fifty-one percent (51%) of the limited liability company units in the MM. As between Developer and Authority, other than as may be expressly required by HUD, Developer will have discretion in (a) the day-to-day operations of MM and the Owner and (b) deciding or taking action on any matters that could cause Developer to have liability under any guaranties Developer or its affiliates provide in connection with the Project. Developer shall, however, consult with Authority on Project matters and must obtain Authority’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) on all matters involving HUD and in connection with any Major Actions. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “Major Actions” is defined below and applies to either the MM or the Owner (“Entity” or “Entities”): (a) taking or authorizing any act which would make it impossible to carry on the ordinary business of the Entity; (b) voluntarily filing a petition of bankruptcy against the Entity; (c) selling of all or any portion of the Project, or submitting a request to the Authority to find a buyer for the Project pursuant to a qualified contract under Section 42(h)(6)E)@UD; (d) effecting a refinancing, encumbrance, mortgage, conveyance, or other disposition of all or a substantial portion of the Project; (e) subleasing the Project as an entirety, or sublease any portion of the Project except in the normal course of business, including residential leases; O following the completion date of the Project, construct any new capital improvements or replace any existing capital improvements costing in excess of Ten Thousand Dollars ($_10,000) and not contemplated in the Budget; (g) on behalf of the Entity, acquiring any real property in addition to the Project; (bh) on behalf of the Entity, incur debt not in the ordinary course of business or arrange for the receipt of any grant of funds, nor incur debt in the ordinary course of business; @ dissolving or winding up the Entity; @) confessing any judgment or initiating any litigation on behalf of the Entity, or compromising any claim or liability owed by or to the Entity (in each case, except for routine tenant eviction actions); (k) modifying or amending this Agreement; ) admitting any person as a member of either Entity, except as contemplated by this Agreement; (m) permitting any person to borrow from the Entity or commingle funds with the funds of any person; (n) making any material changes to the Management Agreement or dismiss or replace the Management Agent once the Management Agreement is approved; (0) modifying, in any material respect, any loan document or Project document, once entered into; (p) permitting the Owner, or any other person on behalf of or in connection with the Owner, to pay directly or indirectly the MM or any Affiliate any fees except as provided for in Project documents; or (p applying the proceeds realized from any condemnation, insured casualty or insured title defect. In addition, Authority shall have the right to receive all documents and reports that the Investor receives. It shall receive for review, accountant certifications of the itemized amount of construction, rehabilitation, acquisition and development costs of the Project and the eligible basis and applicable percentage of each building in the Project. It is anticipated that Developer will remain in ownership of Owner for no less than the full fifteen (15) year LIHTC compliance period, and in any event, for so long as Developer or any of its affiliates have liability under any guaranties related to the Project. Subject to the terms set forth below, Developer shall be solely responsible for providing any guaranties relating to completion of the Project, any guaranties relating to the LIHTCs allocated to the Project, and any guaranties relating to operating deficits. In the event Developer or Authority is obligated to make any guaranty payments or other advances related to the Project pursuant to such guaranties, such payments shall be structured as loans to the Owner or loans to MM (for contribution to Owner ot to be loaned to Owner by MM) (the “Guaranty Loans”), provided lenders and Investor approve the same. Subject to the approval of the Investor and lenders, the Owner shall grant to Authority, its nominee or assignee (or its nonprofit affiliate) a right of first refusal to acquire the Project at the end of the 15-year tax credit compliance period for the “minimum purchase price” as defined in Section 42())(7)(B) of the Code. In the event the Authority (or its nonprofit affiliate) exercises its right of first refusal, it will assume all of the obligations of the Owner under the Ground Lease described in Section 3.03. 5.02 Management Agent. The Authority and Developer will work together to agree on a Management Agent for the Project. Not later than the Closing, and subject to Investor and lender approval, the Owner shall enter into a management agreement with a Property Manager that will be selected via competitive procurement in accordance with any applicable Federal, State or local procurement requirements (“PM”), for the management of the Project. The management fee shall be consistent with HUD published underwriting guidelines as shall be more specifically set forth in a management agreement to be entered into by and between the Owner and PM (“Management Agreement”). The Management Agreement shall provide that PM shall be responsible to the Owner for management of the Project in accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement and other applicable requirements referenced therein, The Management Agreement will provide for Owner remedies due to PM’s default under the -9- Management Agent. Notwithstanding the Owner’s remedies, in the event that PM , as Management Agent under a Management Agreement for the management of the Project is in default beyond applicable notice and cure periods and/or is unwilling or unable to perform its responsibilities under the terms of its Management Agreement, then the Authority and Developer agree that the Authority may require the Owner to terminate PM or other affiliate of Developer in accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement and engage a replacement contractor for the management of the Project. The Managing Member Operating Agteement (defined in Section 6.05) will provide that the Authority and Developer will reasonably agree on any replacement property managers if any property manager is terminated. It is anticipated that the Management Agreement will provide for monthly payment of management fees and compensation. Subject to Investor and lender approval, an initial lease-up fee equal to one-month’s gross rent for the Project will also be payable by Owner to PM pursuant to the Management Agreement, which fee will be included in the Development Budget and will be payable by Owner. PM will pay Authority fifty percent (50%) of the fee in consideration of Authority assisting in the initial lease-up of the Project. Developer will cooperate with Authority and PM to ensure that staff of Authority engaged in management of the properties being transitioned from public housing as part of the Project have an opportunity to be considered for available employment opportunities with PM, subject to PM having the right to engage in such screening and interviewing processes as it normally would for any employees it may hire. To the extent permitted by Investor, lenders, ADOH and HUD, upon lease-up the Authority may act as a sub-manager (“Sub- Manager”) for the completed project to include managing the Project’s wait list for households receiving Project Based Vouchers. PM and Sub-Manager will execute a separate agreement (“Sub-Management Agreement”) defining the duties to be performed by the Sub-Manager. PM and Sub-Manager will share in the management fee as defined in the Sub-Management Agreement and Sub-Manager will be entitled to a sub-management fee, payable from the fee paid to PM under the Management Agreement. Section 5.03 Development Cost Savings. To the extent permitted by Investor, lenders, ADOH and HUD, in the event there are cost savings (“Savings”) for the Project (i.e. the actual total development costs of the Project are less than the total sources available for the Project), Developer and Authority agree to use good faith efforts to have the Owner Operating Agreement and loan documents for the Project allow for the use of Savings for the following, in the following order: (i) the payment of what would be Deferred Development Fee but for the Savings; (ii) to fund required reserves; and (ii) the balance, if any, to be used to pay for betterments of the Project, with such betterments to be decided per mutual agreement of Developer and Authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any Savings results in a loss in “eligible basis” (as such term is defined in Section 42 of the Code) and a related reduction in low-income housing tax credits, the parties will work together to first utilize the Savings for permitted expenses related to the Project so as not to lose eligible basis or reduce LIATC. ARTICLE VI - DEVELOPMENT FEE; PROJECT CASH FLOW/TAX CREDITS: PREDEVELOPMENT COSTS; MiVI INTERESTS 6.01 Development Fee. Developer and Authority (or its affiliate) shall be entitled to a development fee to be earned and paid (unless deferred as set forth below) during the development period (the “Development Fee”), as shown and agreed upon in the final Development Budget for the Project approved at closing by Developer, Authority, Investor and lenders. In addition to the Development Fee, Authority agrees to a $150,000 construction management fee to be paid to an affiliate of Developer. The Development Fee shall comply with all HUD requirements, and will not exceed the maximum amount permitted under the Code and by ADOH. The Development Fee shall be paid in accordance with a payment schedule permitted by the Investor and lenders, Developer Fee shall be divided according to the following percentages: 70% to Developer and 30% to Authority to be paid at or after Closing and prior to receipt of Form 8609 from ADOH; 70% to Developer and 30% to Authority of deferred Developer Fee including without limitation any Developer Fee to be paid out of available cash flow. Whether payable from equity or other sources during development of the Project or deferred and payable from cash flow, Developer and - 10- Authority shall receive their respective share of Development Fee pro rata. The parties agree that if a governmental authority, Investor or lender imposes any limitations on the Development Fee, then the most restrictive limitations shall control and that any reduction in the Development Fee will affect Authority and Developer on a pro rata basis. A portion of the Development Fee may be deferred and paid out of Owner’s cash flow and/or sale and refinancing proceeds, subject to any limitations imposed by ADOH, Investor and/or a lender (the “Deferred Development Fee”). In the event of a cost overrun in excess of any contingency set forth in the Development Budget, the Development Fee shall be deferred, as necessary, to pay for such overrun. Developer and Authority agree that cash flow based payments of Deferred Development Fee will be paid to Developer and Authority ahead of the repayment of any loans to Owner from Authority or its affiliates. If, during the course of development of the Project, there is a need to change Deferred Development Fee, Developer and Authority will mutually consult with one another to minimize the amount of additional Deferred Development Fee and cooperate in good faith to reduce the same.
