submit for the City's approval the identity of any proposed
Management Agent. The Developer shall also submit such
additional information about the background, experience, and
financial condition of any proposed Management Agent as is
reasonably necessary for the City to determine whether the
proposed Management Agent meets the standard for a qualified
Management Agent set forth above. If the proposed Management
Agent meets the standard for a qualified Management Agent set
forth above, then the City shall approve the proposed Management
Agent by notifying the Developer in writing. Unless the proposed
Management Agent is disapproved by the City within thirty (30)
days, which disapproval shall state with reasonable specificity
the basis for disapproval, it shall be deemed approved.
(b) Upon the City's request, the Developer shall
cooperate with the City in the periodic review of the management
practices and financial status of the Property at the following
times: (1) within thirty (30) days after the issuance of a
certificate of occupancy for the last residential unit in the
Development; (2) within six (6) months after the issuance of a
certificate of occupancy for the last residential unit in the
Development; and (3) within thirty (30) days after each

purpose of each periodic review will be to enable the City to
determine if the Development is being operated and managed in
accordance with the requirements and standards of this Agreement.
4.21 Specific Enforcement of Affordability
Restrictions.
Specific enforcement of the Developer's agreement to comply
with the rent and occupancy restrictions of this Article Four is
the only means by which the City may obtain the benefits of the
Affordable Units, and the Developer therefore agrees to the
imposition of the remedy of specific performance against it in
the case of any Developer non-compliance with the rent and
occupancy restrictions of this Article Four. In addition to the
remedies specified in this Section 4.21, the City shall have the
right to pursue any of the remedies set forth in Article Seven
below.

critical by the City in the construction of the Property;

the owner of the Property, or of a substantial part thereof, or
any other act or transaction involving or resulting in a
significant change in ownership or with respect to the identity
of the parties in control of the Developer or the degree thereof,
is for practical purposes a transfer or disposition of the
Property; and
(c) The importance to the City and the City of the
standards of use, operation, and maintenance of the Property.
It is because of the qualifications and identity of the
Developer that the City is entering into this Agreement and that
Transfers are permitted only as provided in this Agreement.
5.3 Prohibited Transfers.

shall apply throughout the Term. Except as expressly permitted

without the prior approval of the City:

business;

(vii) Any monetary default by the Developer
under an instrument creating or secured by a Security Financing
Interest for which the holder has accelerated or has the right to
accelerate the repayment obligation.
(b) The Developer shall have a cure period after
notice from the City before any facts set forth in subsections
(a)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), or (v) constitute a Developer Event of
Default. With respect to facts set forth in subsection (a)(ii),
the cure period shall be five (5) days. With respect to facts
set forth in subsections (a)(i), (iii), (iv), and (v), the cure
period shall be sixty (60) days, or such longer period as may
reasonably be necessary to cure so long as the Developer
commences to cure within sixty (60) days and diligently
prosecutes the cure to completion.
(c) The existence of any Developer Event of Default
shall relieve the City of any obligation to make or continue
disbursements under this Agreement, shall result in automatic
acceleration of the City Note (unless otherwise specified in
writing by the City), shall give the City the right to terminate
this Agreement (except that a Developer Event of Default arising
solely under Section 6.1(a)(v) shall not give the City the right
to terminate this Agreement, and except that certain provisions
of this Agreement shall survive termination, as described in
Section 8.2(b)), and shall give the City the right to proceed
with any and all remedies at law or in equity, including actions
for damages or specific performance (as specifically approved by
the Developer in Section 4.22), subject to Section 7.3.

constitute an City Event of Default. The cure period shall be
sixty (60) days, or such longer period as may reasonably be
necessary to cure so long as the City commences to cure within
sixty (60) days and diligently prosecutes the cure to completion.
The occurrence of any City Event of Default shall relieve
the Developer of any obligation to perform under this Agreement,
and shall give the Developer the right to proceed with any and
all remedies at law or in equity, including actions for damages
or specific performance.
6.3 No Default Termination.
Either Party may terminate this Agreement upon the
condemnation, seizure, or appropriation of any part of the
Property in a manner that impairs the Developer's ability to
comply with the occupancy and affordability requirements of
Sections 4.10 through 4.21. The disposition of condemnation
proceeds shall be as otherwise determined by law.
6.4 Remedies Cumulative.
No right, power, or remedy given to a Party by the terms of
this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other right,
power, or remedy; and each and every such right, power, or remedy
shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right, power,
or remedy given to the Party. Neither the failure nor any delay
on the part of a Party to exercise any such rights and remedies
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise by a Party of any such right or remedy preclude
any other or further exercise of such right or remedy, or any
other right or remedy.
6.5 Waiver of Terms and Conditions.

However, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to permit or
authorize any such holder to devote the Property or any portion
thereof to any uses, or to construct any improvements thereon,
other than those uses or improvements provided for or authorized
by this Agreement.
7.3 Notice of Default and Right to Cure.
(a) Whenever the City delivers any notice of default
or demand to the Developer, the City shall at the same time
deliver to each holder of record of any permitted Security
Financing Interest a copy of such notice or demand. Each such
holder shall (insofar as the rights of the City are concerned)
have the right (but not the obligation) to (i) cure the default
within ninety (90) days after the receipt of the notice or such
longer period as may reasonably be necessary to cure so long as
(x) the holder commences to cure within ninety (90) days and
diligently prosecutes the cure to completion, or (y) the holder
has commenced, within such ninety (90) day period, appropriate
proceedings, under the instrument creating its security Financing
Interest, to obtain possession (through foreclosure or
appointment of a receiver) of the Property, and diligently
prosecutes such proceedings and proceeds to cure after obtaining
possession any default under this Agreement that can reasonably
be cured, and (ii) add the cost thereof to the security interest
debt and the lien on its security interest. Nothing contained in
this Agreement shall be deemed to permit or authorize such holder
to undertake or continue the construction or completion of the
Improvements (beyond the extent necessary to conserve or protect
such improvements or construction already made) without first
having expressly assumed in writing the Developer's obligations
relating to such improvements under this Agreement. Any such
holder properly completing such improvements pursuant to this
paragraph shall be entitled, upon written request made to the
City, to an Estoppel Certificate of Completion from the City.
(b) Whenever the Developer delivers any notice of
default or demand to the City, the Developer shall at the same
time deliver to each holder of record of any permitted Security
Financing Interest a copy of such notice or demand.
7.4 Failure of Holder to Complete Improvements.
In any case where six (6) months after default by the
Developer in completion of construction of the Improvements under
this Agreement, the holder of any permitted Security Financing
Interest, having first exercised its option to construct, has not
proceeded diligently with construction, the City shall be
