The Tentative Map and the Approval Action are on file in the Office of the City Clerk, and such Tentative Map and all requirements and conditions imposed thereon by the Approval Action are incorporated into this Agreement by this reference as if set forth fully herein. D.

The City has adopted standards (hereinafter "Standards") for the construction and installation of improvements within the City, and the Plans have been prepared in conformance with the Standards in effect on the date of the Tentative Map Approval Action. The Plans are on file in the Office of the City Engineer and are incorporated into this Agreement by this reference as if set forth fully herein. All references in this Agreement to the Plans shall be deemed to include reference to any specifications for all of the improvements as approved by the City Engineer. G. An estimate of the cost for construction of the public and private improvements and performing the land development work in connection with the improvements according to the Plans has been made and approved by the City Engineer. The estimated cost of these improvements is set forth on Page One (1) of this Agreement, and the basis for the estimate is attached hereto as Exhibit "B" and incorporated and made part of this Agreement by this reference. The amounts of the Improvement Securities required to be posted with this Agreement are also based upon the estimate in Exhibit "B". H. Subdivider recognizes that by approving the final map for the Subdivision, the City will confer substantial rights upon Subdivider, including the right to sell, lease, or finance lots within the Subdivision and will take the final act necessary to subdivide the Property. Subdivider also acknowledges that as a result of taking such action, the City will be damaged to the extent of the cost of installation of the improvements should Subdivider fail to perform its obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Following receipt of such request, the City Engineer shall inspect the Improvements, make certain determinations and take certain actions as follows: 6 • (I) If the City Engineer, or his/her authorized representative, determines that the Improvements requiring dedication to and acceptance by the City for public use (the "Public Improvements") have been completed in accordance with this Agreement, then the City Engineer shall certify the completion of the Public Improvements by placing a resolution on the next most convenient City Council agenda seeking: (1) formal acceptance of the Public Improvements; (2) release of the Improvement Securities; and (3) authorization to file and record a Notice of Completion. Said determination by the City Engineer and agendization of the acceptance and release shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any certification and/or acceptance of the Public Improvements shall not constitute a waiver of any defects by City. (ii) For Improvements not requiring dedication to or acceptance by the City (the "Private Improvements"), the City Engineer or his/her authorized representative shall inspect such improvements, and/or shall have the discretion to accept a certification from Subdivider's registered civil engineer stating that the Private Improvements have been completed in accordance with the approved Plans, City Standards and the Tentative Map. If the City Engineer, or his/her authorized representative, makes a finding, based on his/her own inspection (and/or any certification submitted by Subdivider's registered civil engineer) that the Private Improvements have been installed and constructed in accordance with the approved Plans, City Standards and the Tentative Map, the City Engineer shall recommend certification of the completion of the Private Improvements by placing an item on the next most convenient City Council agenda requesting certification and authorization to release the Improvement Securities. Said determination by the City Engineer and agendization of the certification and release shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. (c) Subdivider shall bear all costs of inspection and certification of the Improvements. 7. Release of Improvement Securities. (a) The Performance Security shall be fully released only upon the final completion and certification of all Public and Private Improvements, and after acceptance of the Public Improvements by the City Council.

(i) The City Engineer may release a portion of the Performance Security, as work on the Improvements progresses, upon written application thereof by the Subdivider; provided, however, that no such release shall be considered by City until the value of the work remaining to be completed is twenty percent (20%) or less of the estimate of the total amount of work to be done as shown in Exhibit "B". Upon approval of a partial release or the reduction of Performance Security, the City shall not reduce such Performance Security to an amount less than two hundred percent (200%) of the 7 value of the work remaining to be done. City and Subdivider agree that not more than two requests for reduction or partial release of Performance Security shall be considered between the start of construction and the completion and acceptance/certification of the Improvements by the City. (ii) In no event shall the City Engineer authorize a release of the Performance Security which would reduce such security to an amount below that required to guarantee the completion of the Improvements and any other obligations imposed upon Subdivider by this Agreement. (iii) No partial reduction or release of the Performance Security shall constitute or be construed as the City's acceptance of any Improvements or related work. Such partial reductions or releases (if any) will merely reflect that a certain portion of the required work has been done. (b) The Labor & Materials Security shall, ninety (90) days after the City's recordation of the Notice of Completion described Subsection 7(a), be reduced to an amount equal to the total claimed by all claimants for whom liens have been filed and of which notice has been given to City, plus an amount reasonably determined by the City Engineer to be required to assure the performance of any other obligations secured by the Labor & Materials Security and to cover legal costs. The balance shall be released upon the settlement of all claims and obligations for which the Labor & Materials Security was given. If no claims or liens have been filed and no notice has been given to City within said ninety (90) day period, then the Labor & Materials Security shall be released in full. (c) The Warranty Security shall not be released until after the expiration of the one- year (1-year) warranty period and until any claims filed during the warranty period have been settled. As provided in Section 11, below, the warranty period shall not commence until final acceptance/certification of the Improvements and related work by the City Council. (d) The Monumentation Security may be released in full by the City Engineer in accordance with the terms of the separate monument agreement with the City, or if there is none, upon submittal of the following: (i) a written certification from the professional engineer or surveyor responsible for setting the monuments stating that all the final monuments for the Subdivision have been set in accordance with the Professional Land Surveyors Act and the Subdivision Map Act, and that the professional engineer or surveyor has been paid in full by Subdivider for such services; and (ii) centerline tie sheets prepared in a manner acceptable to the City Engineer showing the locations of centerline monuments in existing public or private streets. (e) The City may retain from any Improvement Securities released an amount sufficient to cover costs and reasonable expenses and fees, including reasonable attorneys' fees. 8.

Any repair or replacement shall be made to the reasonable satisfaction, and subject to the approval of the City Engineer and the owner of any such public or private improvement. 9. Permits. Subdivider shall, at Subdivider's expense, obtain all necessary permits and licenses for the construction and installation of the Improvements, give all necessary notices and pay all fees and taxes required by law. 10. Notice of Breach/Default of Subdivider. (a) Default of Subdivider shall include, but not be limited to: (1) Subdivider's failure to timely complete construction of the Improvements; (2) Subdivider's failure to timely cure any defect in the Improvements; (3) Subdivider's failure to perform substantial construction work for a period of twenty (20) calendar days after commencement of the work; (4) Subdivider's insolvency, appointment of a receiver, or the filing of any petition in bankruptcy either voluntary or involuntary which Subdivider fails to discharge within thirty (30) days; (5) the commencement of a foreclosure action against the Property or a portion thereof, or any conveyance in lieu or in avoidance of foreclosure; (6) Subdivider's failure to keep the Improvement Securities in full force and effect; (7) Subdivider's failure to notify the City of any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Property to a purported new subdivider; (8) Subdivider's failure to maintain insurance; or (9) the failure of Subdivider or Subdivider's contractors, subcontractors, agents or employees to comply with any other terms and provisions of this Agreement. (b) In the event of any such default, the City Engineer or the City Council may serve written notice to Subdivider specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the default. Subdivider shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of said notice to cure the default; provided that, if the default is not reasonably susceptible to being cured within said thirty (30) days, Subdivider shall have a reasonable period of time to cure the default so long as Subdivider commences to cure the default within said thirty (30) days and diligently prosecutes the cure to completion. (c) If following service of such written notice of default, Subdivider fails to cure or commence curing the default to the satisfaction of City within the cure period specified in Subsection 10(b), above, the City Engineer or the City Council may serve notice of Subdivider's default upon Subdivider and where applicable Subdivider's surety, or the holder(s) of any other Improvement Securities, in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 22 of this Agreement. (d) In the event of service of the notice of default specified in Subsection 10(c), above, Subdivider's surety shall have the duty to take over and complete the Improvements 9 • and related work required under this Agreement; provided; however, that if the surety, within twenty (20) days after the serving upon it of such notice of default, does not give the City written notice of its intention to take over the construction of said Improvements or does not, within ten (10) days after giving City notice of such election, commence to complete the Improvements, City may take over the work and prosecute the Improvements to completion, by contract or by any other method City may deem advisable, for the account and at the expense of Subdivider, and Subdivider's surety shall be liable to City for any costs or damages occasioned City thereby; and, in such event, City, without liability for so doing, may take possession of, and utilize in completing the Improvements, such materials, appliances, plant and other property belonging to Subdivider as may be on the site of the work and necessary for the completion of same. (e) The City reserves to itself all remedies available to it at law or in equity for Subdivider's default under this Agreement. The City shall have the right, subject to this Section, to draw upon or utilize the appropriate Improvement Securities to mitigate City's damages in event of default by Subdivider. The right of City to draw upon or utilize the Improvement Securities is additional to and not in lieu of any other remedy available to City. It is specifically recognized that the estimated costs and amounts of Improvement Securities may not reflect the actual cost of construction or installation of the Improvements, and therefore, City's damages for Subdivider's default shall be measured by the actual cost of completing the required Improvements. The sums provided by the Improvement Securities may be used by City for the completion of the Improvements in accordance with the Plans. (f) Failure of Subdivider to comply with the terms of this Agreement, including but not limited to, construction of all the Improvements as set forth herein and as required by the Tentative Map, shall constitute Subdivider's consent to: (1) the filing by City of a notice of violation against all of the lots in the Subdivision; (2) a rescission by the City Council of the map approval; (3) action by City to otherwise revert the Subdivision to acreage; and (4) withholding of Building permits, utility connections and/or Certificates of Occupancy. The remedies provided by this Subsection (f) are in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies available to City at law or in equity. Subdivider agrees that the choice of remedy or remedies for Subdivider's default or breach shall be in the sole discretion of City. (g) In the event that Subdivider fails to perform any obligation hereunder, Subdivider agrees to pay all costs and expenses incurred by City in securing performances of such obligations, including costs of suit and reasonable attorney's fees. (h) The failure of City to take an enforcement action with respect to a default, or to declare a default or breach, shall not be construed as a waiver of that default or breach, or of any subsequent default or breach of Subdivider. Any failure by the City to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to compel enforcement of such provision(s) and further shall not act to release any surety from its obligations under this Agreement. 10 • 11. Warranty. (a) For a period of one (1) year after final acceptance/certification by the City Council of the Improvements, Subdivider shall guarantee or warranty the Improvements against any defective work or labor done or defective materials furnished. If within the warranty period any work relating to the Improvements or any part of thereof furnished, installed, constructed or caused to be done, furnished, installed or constructed by Subdivider fails to fulfill any of the requirements of this Agreement or the Plans, Subdivider shall without delay and without any cost to City, commence to repair or replace or reconstruct any defective or otherwise unsatisfactory part or parts of the work or structure within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice from City of the defect and diligently prosecute the repair or replacement work to completion. (b) Should Subdivider fail to act promptly or in accordance with the repair/replacement requirements set forth herein, Subdivider hereby authorizes City, at City's option, to perform the repair/replacement work twenty (20) days after mailing written notice to Subdivider and to Subdivider's surety, and Subdivider agrees to pay City for the cost of such work. (c) Should the City determine that an emergency or a threat to the public safety and welfare exists from the condition of the Improvements which require repairs, replacements or remedial measures to be made before Subdivider can be notified, City may, in its sole discretion, make the necessary repairs or replacements or perform the necessary work and Subdivider shall pay to City the cost of such repairs. 12. Subdivider Not Agent of City. Neither Subdivider nor any of Subdivider's agents, officers, employees, or contractors are or shall be considered to be agents of City in connection with the performance of Subdivider's obligations under this Agreement. 13. Injury to Improvement Work; Risk of Loss. Until such time as the Public Improvements are accepted by City, Subdivider shall be responsible for and bear the risk of loss to any of the Public Improvements constructed or installed and shall be responsible for the care, maintenance of and any damage to such Public Improvements. Neither City, nor any of its agents, officers or employees shall be liable or responsible for any accident, loss or damage, regardless of cause, happening or occurring to the Public Improvements specified in this Agreement prior to the completion and acceptance of the Public Improvements by City. All such risks shall be the responsibility of and are hereby assumed by Subdivider. Subdivider is responsible for and shall bear the risk of loss for all Private Improvements at all times. 14. Other Agreements. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude City from expending monies pursuant to agreements concurrently or previously executed between the Parties, or from entering into agreements with other subdividers for the apportionment of costs of water and sewer mains, or other improvements, pursuant to the provisions of City 11 ordinances providing therefor, nor shall anything in this Agreement commit to any such apportionment. 15. Subdivider's Obligation to Warn Public During Construction. Until final acceptance/certification of the Public Improvements pursuant to Section 6(b)(i), and final certification of construction of the Private Improvements pursuant to Section 6(b)(ii), Subdivider shall give good and adequate warning to the public of each and every dangerous condition existent in said Improvements, and will take all reasonable actions to protect the public from such dangerous conditions on or around the work site. 16. Vesting of Ownership. Upon acceptance of the Public Improvements and related work on behalf of the City, and after recordation of the Notice of Completion, ownership of the Public Improvements and any improvement constructed on any public street pursuant to this Agreement shall vest in City. 17. Indemnity/Hold Harmless. (a) Neither the City, nor any official, officer, employee, contractor or agent thereof, shall be liable for any injury to persons or property occasioned by reason of the acts or omissions of Subdivider, its agents, subcontractors or employees in the performance of this Agreement. Subdivider hereby agrees to, and shall defend and hold harmless City, its elective and appointive boards, commissions and officers, and its agents, contractors and employees from and against any and all claims, demands, causes of action, damages, costs, expenses, actual attorneys' fees, consultant's fees, expert's fees, losses or liability, in law or in equity, of every kind and nature whatsoever arising out of or in connection with Subdivider's operations, or any subcontractor's operations, to be performed under this Agreement for Subdivider's or subcontractor's tort negligence including active or passive, or strict negligence, including but not limited to personal injury including, but not limited to bodily injury, emotional injury, sickness or disease, or death to persons and/or damage to property of anyone, including loss of use thereof, caused or alleged to be caused by any act or omission of Subdivider or any subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them or anyone for the full period of time allowed by law, with the exception of the sole negligence or willful misconduct of City. (b) Subdivider's indemnity, defense and hold harmless obligations under this Section 17 are not conditioned or dependent upon whether City, or its elective and appointive boards, commissions and officers, or its agents, contractors and employees, prepared, supplied or reviewed any Plans or related specifications in connection with the Improvements, or whether City or Subdivider has insurance or other indemnification covering any of these matters. (c) Subdivider's obligation to indemnify, hold harmless and defend City shall extend to injuries to persons and damages to or alleged taking of property resulting from the design or construction of the Improvements, and shall likewise extend to adjacent property owners asserting claims based upon the diversion of waters caused by the Subdivider's design or construction of public drainage systems, streets, and other public facilities or improvements. 12 City's acceptance and/or certification of the Improvements shall not constitute an assumption by City of any responsibility or liability for any damage or alleged taking of property referenced herein. City shall not be responsible or liable for the design or construction of the Improvements constructed or installed pursuant to the Plans, unless the particular Improvement design was required by City over the written objection of Subdivider, which objection stated that the Improvement design was potentially dangerous or defective and set forth a safe and feasible alternative design. After City's acceptance/certification of the Improvements, Subdivider shall remain obligated to correct or eliminate all dangerous conditions caused by defects in design or construction; provided, however, that the Subdivider shall not be responsible for routine maintenance. Subdivider acknowledges and agrees that Subdivider shall be responsible and liable for the design and construction of the Improvements and other work done pursuant to this Agreement, and except as may be provided above, City shall not be liable for any acts or omissions in approving, reviewing, checking, correcting or modifying any Plans, or in inspecting, reviewing or approving any work or construction of Improvements. Subdivider's Improvement Securities shall not be required to secure Subdivider's obligations under this Section 17. 18. Sale or Disposition of Subdivision; Assignment. (a) Subdivider acknowledges and agrees that sale, transfer or other disposition of the Property prior to completion of the Improvements required hereunder will not relieve Subdivider from the obligations set forth in this Agreement, and Subdivider shall be required to notify City sixty (60) day in advance of any sale or transfer of ownership of the Property or any proposed assignment of this Agreement. If Subdivider sells or otherwise transfers the Property to any other person or entity prior to final completion of the Improvements, or wishes to assign this Agreement, Subdivider may request a novation of this Agreement and a substitution of Improvement Securities by the new owner or proposed assignee (hereinafter collectively for purposes of this Section, "Successor"). Subdivider shall be required to provide any documentation reasonably required by City to determine the appropriateness of any proposed Successor. (b) Any proposed Successor must demonstrate to the City its ability to perform and complete the obligations of Subdivider under this Agreement, as determined by objective standards of financial capability, creditworthiness and experience required for such performance, and the City shall have the right to compel the Successor to disclose all documents, information and other material which, in City's sole reasonable discretion, may establish or tend to establish that the proposed Successor meets the standards specified herein. Following approval by City and full execution of a novation (or other such release or assignment and assumption agreement(s) entered into by Subdivider, Successor and City), posting of satisfactory Improvement Securities and submission of required insurance by Successor, City shall release or reduce the securities posted by Subdivider in accordance with the provisions of such novation. Nothing in the novation (or other such release or assignment and assumption agreement entered into by Subdivider, Successor and City) shall relieve 13 Subdivider of its obligations under any other Section of this Agreement for work or Improvements performed by Subdivider prior to the novation. 19. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in this Agreement. 20. Time for Completion of Improvements; Extensions.
