Construction Plans; provided, however, the parties hereby acknowledge that through the design
process, the final number of residential dwelling units and the mix thereof, may deviate slightly

design of the Minimum Improvements must be approved by the Design Review Committee for
conformance with the Level I Design Review development standards, as set forth in Iowa City

pursuant to the Iowa City Council Economic Development policy to lease or sell 15% of the total
residential units to income -qualified residents, as defined in the City Code of Ordinances, or pay
a fee in lieu thereof to an affordable housing fund to be established by the City.
Based upon an assumption that there will be 102 new dwelling units created as part of the
Project, Owner and Developer hereby agree to satisfy this affordable housing occupancy
obligation through the payment of a fee in lieu of leasing or selling 17 units for such purposes, in
an amount determined biennially by resolution of the City Council based upon a formula that
analyzes the difference between renting a market rate unit for the term of affordability and
renting a dwelling unit affordable to an income qualified household. This fee in -lieu shall be paid

Plans. No refund shall be provided if the number of dwelling units constructed is reduced for any
reason, with or without City approval, during construction.

Construction Plans are adequate for purposes of this Agreement to provide for the construction
of the Minimum Improvements; and (vi) no Event of Default under the terms of this Agreement
has occurred; provided, however, that any such approval of the Construction Plans pursuant to
this section shall constitute approval for the purposes of this Agreement only and shall not be
deemed to constitute approval or waiver by the City with respect to any building, fire, zoning or
other ordinances or regulations of the City, and shall not be deemed to be sufficient plans to
serve as the basis for the issuance of a building permit if the Construction Plans are not as
detailed or complete as the plans otherwise required for the issuance of a building permit.
Approval of the Construction Plans by the City shall not relieve any obligation to comply
with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, or the provision of applicable federal, State and
local laws, ordinances and regulations, nor shall approval of the Construction Plans by the City
be deemed to constitute a waiver of any Event of Default.
Approval of Construction Plans hereunder is solely for purposes of this Agreement, and

for the limited purpose of allocating the rights and obligations set forth in this Agreement to
respective condominium units to be owned by one or more of the Owner or Developer. Any
other amendment to this Agreement must be approved by City Council unless specifically stated
herein.
16
( 'e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, however, the parties expressly
agree and acknowledge that Owner intends to transfer ownership of the Development Property to
the Developer prior to the commencement of construction of the Minimum Improvements and
that the City hereby consents to said transfer. Therefore, no ftirther consent from the City to the
Owner's transfer of the Development Property to the Developer is required. It is ftirther
acknowledged and agreed that upon the transfer of the Development Property by the Owner to

remain unchanged, the fact that any act or transaction involving or resulting in a significant
change in the ownership or with respect to the identity of the parties in control of Owner and
Developer or the degree thereof, is for practical purposes a transfer or disposition of the
Development Property then owned by Owner and Developer and the qualifications and identity
of Owner and Developer are of particular concern to the City. Owner and Developer further
recognize that it is because of such qualifications and identity that the City is entering into this
Agreement with Owner and Developer.
Section 6.3. Prohibition Against Transfer of Property and Assignment of Agreement.
For the reasons identified in Section 6.2, Owner and Developer represent and agree for
themselves and their successors and assigns, that:
(a) Except for a change in the ownership or control of Owner and/or Developer(s)
caused by or related to the death of a member, estate planning of a member or retirement of a
member, when the remaining original controlling members of the Owner and/or Developer(s)
Z

to enable Owner and Developer or any successor in interest to the Development Property, or any
part thereof, to perform their obligations with respect to constructing the Minimum
Improvements under this Agreement•, and (ii) any other purpose authorized by this Agreement,

assignment conveyance, or lease, or any trust or power, or transfer in any other mode or form of
or with respect to this Agreement or the Development Property, or any part thereof or any
interest therein, or any contract or agreement to do any of the same, without the prior written

Agreement, as conditions to any such approval that:
(i) Any proposed transferee shall have the qualifications and financial
responsibility, as determined by the City, necessary and adequate to fulfill the obligations
-undertaken in this Agreement by Owner and Developer (or, in the event the transfer is or relates
to part of the Development Property, such obligations to the extent that they relate to such part).
0i) Any proposed transferee, by instrument in writing satisfactory to the City
and in form recordable among the land records, shall, for itself and its successors and assigns,
and expressly for the benefit of the City, have expressly assumed all of the obligations of Owner
and Developer under this Agreement and the Assessment Agreement and agreed to be subject to
all the conditions and restrictions to which Owner and Developer are subject (or, in the event the
transfer is of or relates to part of the Development Property, such obligations, conditions, and
restrictions to the extent that they relate to such part). Provided, that the fact that any transferee
of, or any other successor in interest whatsoever to, the Development Property, or any part
thereof, shall, whatever the reason, not have assumed such obligations or so agreed, shall not

extent specifically provided otherwise in this Agreement) no transfer of, or change with respect
to, ownership in the Development Property or any part thereof, or any interest therein, however
consummated or occurring, and whether voluntary or involuntary, shall operate, legally or
practically, to deprive or limit the City of or with respect to any rights or remedies or controls
provided in or resulting from this Agreement and the Assessment Agreement with respect to the
Development Property and the construction of the Minimum Improvements that the City would
have had, had there been no such transfer or change.
(iii) There shall be submitted to the City for review all instruments and other
legal documents involved in effecting transfer; and if approved by the City, its approval shall be
indicated to Owner and Developer in writing. Such approval will not be unreasonably withheld.
IN
Provided, that except as set forth in Section 6.1(c) concerning Owner's transfer of
ownership to Developer, in the absence of specific written agreement by the City to the contrary,
no such transfer or approval by the City thereof shall be deemed to relieve Owner and
Developer, or any other party bound in any way by this Agreement or otherwise with respect to
the construction of the Minimum Improvements, or from any of their obligations with respect
thereto.
Section 6.4 Prohibition Against Use as Non -Taxable or Centrally -Assessed Property.

ARTICLE VII. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT GRANTS
2EZM��
For and in consideration of the obligations being assumed by the Owner and Developer
hereunder, and in furtherance of the goals and objectives of the Urban Renewal Plan and the
Urban Renewal Act, the City agrees to make the following Economic Development Grants,
subject to the Owner and Developer being and remaining in compliance with the terms of this
Agreement and subject to the terms of this Article VII. Said Economic Development Grants
shall, in no event, exceed an aggregate amount of $12,250,000:
(a) Up to fifteen (15) annual Economic Development Grants commencing on June 1,
2025, and ending on June 1, 2039, or when the total of all grants described in this Article VIT is
equal to $12,250,000, whichever is earlier. The first eight (8) annual grants shall be equal to
100%, and the subsequent seven (7) annual grants shall be equal to 75%, per fiscal year of the
Tax Increments (unless the total grant amount of $12,250,000 is reached first) collected by the
City with respect to the Minimum Improvements on Development Property pursuant to Section
403.19 of the Urban Renewal Act under the terms of the Ordinance (without regard to any
averaging that may otherwise be utilized under Section 403.19(6) and excluding any interest that
may accrue thereon prior to payment to the Owner and Developer) during the preceding twelve-
month period in respect of the Development Property and the Minimum Improvements, but
subject to adjustment and conditions precedent as provided in this Article (such payments
described in subsections (a) and (b) hereof being referred to collectively as the "Economic
Development Grants").
19
(b) The obligation of the City to make an Economic Development Grant to the
Developer in any year as specified above shall be subject to and conditioned upon the timely
filing by the Developer of all previous annual statements, proofs and certifications required
under Article V hereof and the City Manager's approval thereof. Beginning with the
November 1, 2023, certification, if the Annual Statement, proof and certification is timely filed
and contains the information required tinder Article V and the City Manager approves of the
same, the City shall certify to the County prior to December I of that year its request for the
available Tax Increments resulting from the assessments imposed by the County as of January I
of that year, to be collected by the City as taxes are paid during the following fiscal year and
which shall thereafter be disbursed to the Developer on June I of the following fiscal year. (For
example, if the Owner and Developer and the City each so certify on November I and
December 1, 2023, respectively, the first Economic Development Grant would be paid to the
Owner and Developer on June 1, 2025).
(c) in the event that the annual statement, proof or certificate required to be delivered
by the Owner and Developer under Article V is not delivered to the City by November I of any
year, the Owner and Developer recognize and agree that the City may have insufficient time to
review and approve the same and certify its request for Tax Increments to the County and that, as
a result, no Economic Development Grant may be made in respect thereof. The City covenants
to act in good faith to appropriately review and consider any late certification on the part of the
Owner and Developer, but the City shall not be obligated to make any certification to the County
for the available Tax Increments or make any corresponding payment of the Economic
Development Grant to the Owner and Developer if, in the reasonable judgment of the City, it is
not able to give appropriate consideration (which may include, but not be limited to, specific
discussion before the City Council at a regular City Council meeting with respect thereto) to the
Owner and Developer's certification due to its late filing. In the event Owner and Developer fail
to timely file an annual statement, proof or certificate due to an Unavoidable Delay and, as a
result, an Economic Development Grant cannot be made, Owner and Developer may give
written notice to the City and, if the City finds that the failure is due to an Unavoidable Delay,
the missed Economic Development Grant shall be made in the year succeeding the last scheduled
Economic Development Grant under this Section 7.1, subject to Owner and Developer's filing
under Article V and all other provisions of this Article VII with respect to such grant, it being the
intention of the parties to allow up to fifteen (15) annual Economic Development Grants in an
aggregate amount not to exceed $12,250,000, if Owner and Developer are in compliance with
this Agreement.
(d) The final grant shall be adjusted, if necessary, if payment of 751% of Tax
Increments for that grant would result in total, aggregate Economic Development Grants in an
amount exceeding $12,250,000. Such Economic Development Grants shall at all times be subject
to termination in accordance with the terms of this Article VII and Article X. Thereafter, the
taxes levied on the Development Property and Minimum Improvements shall be divided and
applied in accordance with the Urban Renewal Act and the Ordinance. It is recognized by all
parties that the total aggregate amount set forth above is a maximum amount only and that the
actual payment amounts will be determined after the Minimum Improvements are completed and
the valuations of said Improvements have been determined by the City Assessor. The City makes
no assurance that the Owner and/ter Developer will receive the maximum Economic
go
Development Grants. Owner and Developer acknowledge that the increment generated from the
Minimum Improvements alone is not anticipated to result in payment of the maximum amount of
Economic Development Grants.
(e) in the event that any certificate filed in accordance with Section 5.6 or other
information available to the City discloses the existence or prior occurrence of an Event of
Default that was not cured or cannot reasonably be cured under the provisions of Section 10.2 (or
an event that, with the passage of time or giving of notice, or both, would become an Event of
Default that cannot reasonably be cured under the provisions of Section 10.2), the City shall have
no obligation thereafter to make any further payments to the Developer in respect of the
Economic Development Grants and may proceed to take one or more of the actions described in
Section 10.2 hereof.
Section 7.2. Source of Grant Funds Limited,
(a) The Economic Development Grants shall be payable from and secured solely and
only by amounts deposited and held in the Tailwind TIF Account. The City hereby covenants
and agrees to maintain the Ordinance in force during the term hereof and to apply the
incremental taxes collected in respect of the Minimum Improvements and allocated to the
Tailwind TIF Account to pay the Economic Development Grants, as and to the extent set forth in
Section 7.1 hereof. The Economic Development Grants shall not be payable in any mariner by
other tax increment revenues or by general taxation or from any other City funds.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.1 hereof, the City shall have no
obligation to make an Economic Development Grant to the Owner or Developer if at any time
during the term hereof the City receives an opinion of its legal counsel or a controlling decision
of an Iowa court having jurisdiction over the subject matter hereof to the effect that the use of
Tax Increments resulting from the Minimum Improvements to fund an Economic Development
Grant, as contemplated under said Section 7.1, is not authorized or otherwise an apytoptiate
project activity permitted to be undertaken by the City under the Urban Renewal Act or other
applicable provisions of the Code, as then constituted. Upon receipt of such an opinion or
decision, the City shall promptly forward a copy of the same to the Owner and Developer. If the
circumstances or legal constraints giving rise to the opinion or decision continue for a period
during which two (2) Economic Development Grants would otherwise have been paid to the
Owner and Developer under the terms of Section 7.1, the City may terminate this Agreement,
without penalty or other liability to the Owner or Developer, by written notice to the Owner and
Developer. In said event, the Minimurn Assessment Agreement shall also be terminated
effective as of the City's termination of this Agreement.
(c) The City makes no representation with respect to the amounts that may finally be
paid to the Owner and Developer as the Economic Development Grants, and under no
circumstances shall the City in any manner be liable to the Owner and Developer, so long as the
City timely applies the Tax Increments actually collected and held in the Tailwind TIF Account
(regardless of the amounts thereof) to the payment of the Economic Development Grants to the
Developer, as and to the extent described in this Article.
RX
Section 7.3. Use of Other Tax Increments. Subject to this Article VII, the City shall be
free to use any and all Tax Increments collected in respect of increases in valuation on the
Development Profil'"-A unrelated to construction of the
assessed or actual value due to market factors), any other properties within the Project Area, or
any available Tax Increments resulting from the suspension or termination of the Economic
Development Grants under Section 7.1 hereof, for any purpose for which the Tax Increments
may lawfully be used pursuant to the provisions of the Urban Renewal Act, and the City shall
have no obligations to the Developer with respect to the use thereof.
Section 7.4. Conditions Precedent to Economic Development Grants. Notwithstanding
-tither provisions of this Article, the City's obligations to make Economic Development Grant(s)

provisions of this Agreement, including Sections 7.1 and 7.2 hereof, the City shall have no
obligation to Owner and Developer under this Agreement to issue an Economic Development
