take advantage of below-market interest rates and to complete rehabilitation of the
development. The rehabilitation will include roof repairs, new window installation,
installation of energy efficient upgrades (solar, heating and HVAC, lighting and water),
interior upgrades (carpet, cabinetry, and appliances), and landscaping. The City of Pinole
supports the project.
The ownership entity will be John Street Housing Associates, L.P., a California limited
partnership with Hercules Senior Housing, Inc. serving as managing general partner.
Hercules Senior Housing, Inc. is wholly owned by BRIDGE Housing Corporation, a
local non-profit housing developer that successfully manages several affordable housing
projects in Contra Costa County.
On March 1, 2011 the Board of Supervisors adopted an Inducement Resolution (a
nonbinding conditional statement of intent to issue multi-family bonds) for the project as
required by tax law. The Inducement Resolution authorized the submittal of an
application by the County for Private Activity Bond Authority. On July 20, 2011 the
California Debt Limit Allocation Committee awarded the County authority to issue
bonds in the amount of $4.8 million.
The County, as required by Section 147(f) of Internal Revenue Code, held a noticed
public hearing to permit interested parties to comment on the project. This hearing was
held on March 2, 2011. No comments were received. The Board adopted Resolution No.
2011/104 on March 15, 2011 to authorize proceeding with an issuance of bonds pursuant
to Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Pinole Grove Senior Housing is 17 years old and in need of rehabilitation as discussed
above to maintain the development in good condition. The total plan of finance is
included in Attachment A.
The proceeds of the bonds will finance the loan for Pinole Grove Senior Housing. The
bonds will be directly placed with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., who in turn will issue a loan
at tax exempt rates to John Street Housing Associates, L.P. The bond counsel for this
transaction is Quint & Thimmig LLP.
The recommended action is to adopt Bond Sale Resolution No. 2011/324 authorizing the
issuance of $4.8 million in tax-exempt bonds to finance the acquisition and rehabilitation
of Pinole Grove Senior Housing in Pinole. The bond sale resolution authorizes a number
of actions, a summary of which is listed in Attachment B.

to provide a loan to John Street Housing Associates, L.P., to refinance and rehabilitate
Pinole Grove Senior Housing, a 70-unit affordable senior housing development, located

financing.

Section 2.02. Terms of Bonds. The Bonds shall be in substantially the form set forth in
Exhibit A hereto with necessary or appropriate variations, omissions and insertions as
permitted or required by this Indenture, including any supplemental indenture.
The Bonds shall be issuable only as fully registered Bonds, without coupons, in the
form of a single Bond in the principal amount equal to the aggregate of the purchase price of
the Bonds advanced from time to time by the owners of the Bonds (which principal amount
shall be, on the Closing Date, equal to the amount of the Initial Disbursement, and with any
subsequent advances subject to the provisions of Section 3.03(e)). In connection with any

on the Note, computed in the same manner as interest is computed from time to time on the
Note. The principal of the Bonds shall be payable in installments on the same dates and in the

Each Bond shall bear interest from the date to which interest has been paid on the
Bonds next preceding the date of its authentication, unless it is authenticated as of an Interest

Representative shall be deemed to have been constructively received by the Holder(s) as
payments or prepayments on the Bonds on the date of receipt of such payments by the
Bondowner Representative, and interest with respect to each principal payment or prepayment
shall cease to accrue upon receipt of such payment by the Bondowner Representative.
Payments or prepayments of principal, interest or Premium, if any, shall be remitted

The Issuer hereby acknowledges that the Borrower is obligated to pay late fees and

Clerk of the Board of Supervisors of the Issuer. The Bonds shall then be delivered to the
Bondowner Representative for authentication by the Bondowner Representative. In case any
officer who shall have signed any of the Bonds shall cease to be such officer before the Bonds
so signed shall have been authenticated or delivered by the Bondowner Representative or
issued by the Issuer, such Bonds may nevertheless be authenticated, delivered and issued and,
upon such authentication, delivery and issuance, shall be as binding upon the Issuer as though
the person who signed the same had continued to be such officer of the Issuer. Also, any Bond
may be signed on behalf of the Issuer by such persons as on the actual date of the execution of
such Bond shall be the proper officers of the Issuer although on the nominal date of such Bond
any such person shall not have been such officer.

set forth in Exhibit A, manually executed by the Bondowner Representative, shall be valid or

amounts are received for the payment thereof from the Borrower under the Note or the Loan
Agreement.
Section 5.02. Bond Fund. There is hereby created and established with the Bondowner
Representative a separate fund which shall be designated the “Bond Fund,” which fund shall
be applied only as provided in this Section.
The Bondowner Representative shall deposit in the Bond Fund from time to time, upon
receipt thereof, all Revenues, including (i) income received from the investment of moneys on
deposit in the Bond Fund, and (ii) any other Revenues, including insurance proceeds,
condemnation awards and other Loan payments or prepayments received from or for the
account of the Borrower. The Bondowner Representative shall provide notice to the Issuer,
upon written request of the Issuer, of the amounts received by the Bondowner Representative
which constitute Revenues or are otherwise deposited to the Bond Fund, and of any failure by
the Borrower to make timely payments on the Note.
Except as provided in Section 10.02, moneys in the Bond Fund shall be used solely for
the payment of the principal of and Premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds as the same
shall become due, whether at maturity or upon redemption or acceleration or otherwise.
-17-
On each date on which principal of or interest on the Bonds is due and payable, the
Bondowner Representative shall pay such amount from the Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, to the extent that there is only
one Bondowner, any payment on the Note from the Borrower to the Bondowner Representative
shall be deemed to be a payment by the Issuer on the Bonds, and there shall be no requirement
that amounts so paid be deposited to the Bond Fund.
Section 5.03. Investment of Moneys. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, any
moneys in any of the funds and accounts to be established by the Bondowner Representative
pursuant to this Indenture shall be invested by the Bondowner Representative in Investment
Securities selected and directed in writing by the Borrower, with respect to which payments of
principal thereof and interest thereon are scheduled or otherwise payable not later than one day
prior to the date on which it is estimated that such moneys will be required by the Bondowner
Representative. In the absence of such directions, the Bondowner Representative shall invest
such monies in Investment Securities described in clause (b) of the definition thereof. The
Bondowner Representative shall have no liability or responsibility for any loss resulting from
any investment made in accordance with this Section 5.03.
Except as otherwise provided in the next sentence, all investments of amounts
deposited in any fund or account created by or pursuant to this Indenture, or otherwise
containing gross proceeds of the Bonds (within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code) shall
be acquired, disposed of, and valued (as of the date that valuation is required by this
Indenture or the Code) at Fair Market Value. Investments in funds or accounts (or portions
thereof) that are subject to a yield restriction under applicable provisions of the Code shall be
valued at their present value (within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code). The Bondowner
Representative shall have no duty to determine Fair Market Value or present value hereunder.
For the purpose of determining the amount in any fund or account, all Investment
Securities credited to such fund or account shall be valued at the lower of cost or par (which
shall be measured exclusive of accrued interest) after the first payment of interest following
purchase.
Any interest, profit or loss on such investment of moneys in any fund or account shall
be credited or charged to the respective funds or accounts from which such investments are
made. The Bondowner Representative may sell or present for redemption any obligations so
purchased whenever it shall be necessary in order to provide moneys to meet any payment,
and the Bondowner Representative shall not be liable or responsible for any loss resulting from
such sale or redemption.
The Bondowner Representative may make any and all investments permitted under this
Section 5.03 through its own trust or banking department or any affiliate and may pay said
department reasonable, customary fees for placing such investments. The Bondowner
Representative and its affiliates may act as principal, agent, sponsor, advisor or depository
with respect to Investment Securities under this Section 5.03.
The Issuer (and the Borrower by its execution of the Loan Agreement) acknowledges
that to the extent regulations of the Comptroller of the Currency or other applicable regulatory
entity grant the Issuer or the Borrower the right to receive brokerage confirmations of security
transactions as they occur, the Issuer and the Borrower will not receive such confirmations to
the extent permitted by law. The Bondowner Representative will furnish the Borrower and the
Issuer (to the extent requested by it) periodic cash transaction statements which include detail
for all investment transactions made by the Bondowner Representative hereunder.
-18-
Section 5.04. Enforcement of Obligations. The Bondowner Representative shall be
entitled (but not required, unless (i) requested to do so by the holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Bonds then outstanding and (ii) if required by the Bondowner Representative,
provided with indemnification to its satisfaction against the costs, expenses and liabilities
incurred in compliance with such request) to take all steps, actions and proceedings reasonably
necessary in its judgment: (a) to enforce the terms, covenants and conditions of, and preserve
and protect the priority of its interest in and under, the Loan Agreement, any other Loan
Document, the Regulatory Agreement and the Deed of Trust, (b) to require compliance with all
covenants, agreements and conditions on the part of the Issuer contained in this Indenture with
respect to the Revenues, and (c) to be reimbursed for its expenses (including reasonable
attorney’s fees) by the Borrower in taking any action referred to in the preceding clauses (a)
and/or (b).
ARTICLE VI
COVENANTS OF THE ISSUER
Section 6.01. Payment of Principal and Interest. The Issuer shall punctually pay, but
only out of Revenues as herein provided, the principal and the interest (and Premium, if any)
to become due in respect of every Bond issued hereunder at the times and places and in the
manner provided herein and in the Bonds, according to the true intent and meaning thereof.
When and as paid in full, all Bonds shall be delivered to the Bondowner Representative and
shall forthwith be destroyed.
Section 6.02. Paying Agents. The Issuer, with the written approval of the Bondowner
Representative, may appoint and at all times have one or more paying agents in such place or
places as the Issuer may designate, for the payment of the principal of, and the interest (and
premium, if any) on, the Bonds. It shall be the duty of the Bondowner Representative to make
such arrangements with any such paying agent as may be necessary and feasible to assure, to
the extent of the moneys held by the Bondowner Representative for such payment, the
availability of funds for the prompt payment of the principal of and interest and Premium, if
any, on the Bonds presented at any place of payment. The paying agent initially appointed
hereunder is the Bondowner Representative.
Section 6.03. Preservation of Revenues; Amendment of Documents. The Issuer (a)
shall not take any action to interfere with or impair the pledge and assignment hereunder of
Revenues and the assignment to the Bondowner Representative of rights of the Issuer under the
Agreement and the Deed of Trust, or the Bondowner Representative’s enforcement of any
rights hereunder or thereunder, (b) shall not take any action to impair the validity or
enforceability of the Agreement or the Deed of Trust, and (c) shall not waive any of its rights
under or any other provision of or permit any amendment of the Agreement or the Deed of
Trust, without the prior written consent of the Bondowner Representative; provided that such
consent of the Bondowner Representative shall not be required if the Bondowner Representative
shall have received an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such amendment (i) is
required to preserve the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal
income tax purposes or compliance by the Bonds or the Development with the Housing Act
and the laws of the State of California; and (ii) will not adversely affect the interests of the
Bondholders.
Section 6.04. Compliance with Indenture. The Issuer shall not issue, or permit to be
issued, any Bonds secured or payable in any manner out of Revenues other than in accordance
-19-
with the provisions of this Indenture; it being understood that the Issuer reserves the right to
issue obligations payable from and secured by sources other than the Revenues and the assets
assigned herein. The Issuer shall not suffer or permit any default within its power to occur
under this Indenture, but shall faithfully observe and perform all the covenants, conditions and
requirements hereof. So long as any Bonds are outstanding, the Issuer shall not create or suffer
to be created any pledge, lien or charge of any type whatsoever upon all or any part of the
Revenues, other than the lien of this Indenture.
Section 6.05. Further Assurances. Whenever and so often as requested so to do by the
Bondowner Representative, the Issuer (at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower) shall
promptly execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered all such other and further
instruments, documents or assurances, and promptly do or cause to be done all such other
and further things, as may be necessary or reasonably required in order to further and more
fully vest in the Bondowner Representative and the Bondholders all of the rights, interests,
powers, benefits, privileges and advantages conferred or intended to be conferred upon them
by this Indenture and to perfect and maintain as perfected such rights, interests, powers,
benefits, privileges and advantages.
Section 6.06. No Arbitrage. Solely in reliance upon the covenants and representations
of the Borrower in the Loan Agreement, in the Regulatory Agreement and in the Tax
Certificate, the Issuer shall not take, nor permit nor suffer to be taken by the Bondowner
Representative or otherwise, any action with respect to the gross proceeds of the Bonds which
if such action had been reasonably expected to have been taken, or had been deliberately and
intentionally taken, on the date of the issuance of the Bonds would have caused the Bonds to
be “arbitrage bonds” within the meaning of Section 148(a) of the Code and Regulations
promulgated thereunder.
Section 6.07. Limitation of Expenditure of Proceeds. The Issuer shall assure, solely in
reliance upon the covenants and representations of the Borrower in the Loan Agreement, in the
Regulatory Agreement and in the Tax Certificate, that not less than 95% of the amount
advanced as the purchase price of the Bonds, plus premium (if any) paid on the purchase of
the Bonds by the original purchaser thereof from the Issuer, less any original discount, are used
for Qualified Development Costs and less than 25 percent of such amount is used for land or
an interest in land.
Section 6.08. Rebate of Excess Investment Earnings to United States. The Issuer
hereby covenants, solely in reliance upon the covenants and representations of the Borrower in
the Loan Agreement, in the Regulatory Agreement and in the Tax Certificate (including the
Borrower’s covenants in Sections 3.3(h)(iv), 11.39 and 11.44(c) in the Loan Agreement and in
Section 2(r) of the Regulatory Agreement) to calculate or cause to be calculated excess
investment earnings to the extent required by Section 148(f) of the Code and the Borrower shall
cause payment of an amount equal to excess investment earnings to the United States in
accordance with the Regulations, all at the sole expense of the Borrower.
Section 6.09. Limitation on Issuance Costs. The Issuer shall assure, solely in reliance
upon the covenants and representations of the Borrower in the Loan Agreement, in the
Regulatory Agreement and in the Tax Certificate, that, from the proceeds of the Bonds received
from the original purchaser thereof and investment earnings thereon, an amount not in excess
of two percent (2%) of the face amount of the Bonds will be used to pay for, or provide for the
payment of, Issuance Costs. For this purpose, if the fees of such original purchaser are
retained as a discount on the purchase of the Bonds, such retention shall be deemed to be an
expenditure of proceeds of the Bonds for said fees.
-20-
Section 6.10. Federal Guarantee Prohibition. The Issuer covenants that it shall take no
action nor, solely in reliance upon the covenants and representations of the Borrower in the
Loan Agreement, in the Regulatory Agreement and in the Tax Certificate, knowingly permit
nor suffer any action to be taken if the result of the same would be to cause the Bonds to be
“federally guaranteed” within the meaning of the Code.
Section 6.11. Prohibited Facilities. The Issuer, solely in reliance upon the covenants
and representations of the Borrower in the Loan Agreement, in the Regulatory Agreement and
in the Tax Certificate, shall assure that no portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be used to
provide any airplane, skybox or other private luxury box, health club facility, facility primarily
used for gambling, or store the principal business of which is the sale of alcoholic beverages for
consumption off premises. The Issuer, solely in reliance upon the covenants and
representations of the Borrower in the Loan Agreement, in the Regulatory Agreement and in the
Tax Certificate, shall assure that no portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be used for an
office unless the office is located on the premises of the facilities constituting the Development
and unless not more than a de minimis amount of the functions to be performed at such office
is not related to the day-to-day operations of the Development.
Section 6.12. Use Covenant. Solely in reliance upon the covenants and representations
of the Borrower in the Loan Agreement, in the Regulatory Agreement and in the Tax
Certificate, the Issuer shall not use or knowingly permit the use of any proceeds of Bonds or
any other funds of the Issuer, directly or indirectly, in any manner, and shall not take or permit
to be taken any other action or actions, which would result in any of the Bonds being treated as
an obligation not described in Section 142(d) of the Code by reason of such Bond not meeting
the requirements of Section 142(d) of the Code.
Section 6.13. Immunities and Limitations of Responsibility of Issuer. The Issuer shall
be entitled to the advice of counsel (who, except as otherwise provided, may be counsel for any
Bondholder), and the Issuer shall be wholly protected as to action taken or omitted in reliance
on such advice. The Issuer may rely conclusively on any communication or other document
furnished to it hereunder and reasonably believed by it to be genuine. The Issuer shall in no
event be liable for the application or misapplication of funds or for other acts or defaults by
any person, except its own officers and employees. When any payment or consent or other
action by it is called for hereby, it may defer such action pending receipt of such evidence (if
any) as it may require in support thereof. The Issuer shall not be required to take any remedial
action (other than the giving of notice) unless indemnity in a form acceptable to the Issuer is
furnished for any expense or liability to be incurred in connection with such remedial action,
other than liability for failure to meet the standards set forth in this Section. The Issuer shall be
entitled to reimbursement from the Borrower for its expenses reasonably incurred or advances
reasonably made, with interest at the rate of interest on the Bonds, in the exercise of its rights
or the performance of its obligations hereunder, to the extent that it acts without previously
obtaining indemnity. No permissive right or power to act which the Issuer may have shall be
construed as a requirement to act; and no delay in the exercise of a right or power shall affect
its subsequent exercise of the right or power.
A default by the Borrower in any of its covenants, representations and agreements in
the Loan Agreement, Regulatory Agreement or Tax Certificate on which the Issuer is relying in
Sections 6.06 through 6.12 hereof shall not be considered a default hereunder by the Issuer.
The Borrower has indemnified the Issuer against certain acts and events as set forth in
Section 11.38 of the Loan Agreement and Section 9 of the Regulatory Agreement. Such
indemnities shall survive payment of the Bonds and discharge of the Indenture.
-21-
Section 6.14. Additional Representations by the Issuer. The Issuer hereby represents
and warrants to the Bondholders and the Bondowner Representative that, as of the Closing
Date:
(a) The Issuer is a political subdivision and body corporate and politic of the
State and is duly authorized enter into and perform its obligations under this
Indenture.
(b) All requirements have been met and procedures have occurred in order to
authorize the execution and delivery by the Issuer of this Indenture. The Issuer has
taken all necessary action and has complied with all provisions of the law required to
make this Indenture a valid and binding limited obligation of the Issuer, except to the
extent limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights generally, by the application of equitable principles regardless of
whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity, or by public policy.
(c) The Bonds have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Issuer.
Nothing in this Indenture shall be construed as requiring the Issuer to provide any
financing for the Development, other than to use the proceeds of the Bonds to make the
Loan, or to provide sufficient moneys for all of the cost of financing the Project.
(d) To the best knowledge of the Issuer, there is no action, suit, proceeding,
inquiry or investigation by or before any court, governmental agency or public board or
body pending or threatened against the Issuer that (i) affects or seeks to prohibit,
restrain or enjoin the execution or delivery of this Indenture, the origination of the Loan
or the lending of the proceeds of the Loan to the Borrower, or the execution and delivery
of the Loan Documents, (ii) affects or questions the validity or enforceability of the
Bonds or the Loan Documents, or (iii) questions the tax-exempt status of interest on
the Bonds.
(e) The Issuer will take all actions required by the Code to enable the Issuer to
use the 2011 Allocation in connection with advances of the purchase price of the Bonds
until the earlier of the Conversion Date or December 31, 2014.
The Issuer makes no representation or warranty that the Development will be adequate
or sufficient for the purposes of the Borrower. Nothing in this Indenture shall be construed as
requiring the Issuer to provide any financing for the Development other than from the proceeds
of the Loan.
ARTICLE VII
DEFAULT
Section 7.01. Events of Default; Acceleration; Waiver of Default. Each of the
following events shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder:
(a) failure to pay the principal of any Bond when and as the same shall become
due and payable (including but not limited to amounts due on the Bonds under Section
4.01 hereof), whether at maturity as therein expressed, by proceedings for redemption,
by declaration or otherwise;
-22-
(b) failure to pay any installment of interest on any Bond when such interest
installment shall become due and payable; and
(c) failure by the Issuer to perform or observe any other of the covenants,
agreements or conditions on its part in this Indenture or in the Bonds contained, and the
continuation of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof,
specifying such default and requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to
the Issuer and the Borrower by the Bondowner Representative, or to the Issuer, the
Borrower and the Bondowner Representative by the holders of not less than twenty-five
percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds at the time outstanding.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a default by the Borrower under the Deed of Trust or the Loan
Agreement shall not, in itself, constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture.
No default specified in (c) above shall constitute an Event of Default unless the Issuer
or the Borrower shall have failed to correct such default within the applicable period; provided,
however, that if the default described in (c) above shall be such that it cannot be corrected
within such period, it shall not constitute an Event of Default if corrective action is instituted
by the Issuer or the Borrower within the applicable period and diligently pursued until the
default is corrected; provided that the time elapsed until completion of corrective action shall
not exceed one hundred eighty (180) days. With regard to any alleged default concerning
which notice is given to the Borrower under the provisions of (c) above, the Issuer hereby grants
the Borrower full authority for the account of the Issuer to perform any covenant or obligation
the non-performance of which is alleged in said notice to constitute a default in the name and
stead of the Issuer with full power to do any and all things and acts to the same extent that
the Issuer could do and perform any such things and acts and with power of substitution.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in (a), (b) or (c) above, the
Bondowner Representative may (i) by notice in writing to the Issuer and the Borrower (with a
copy to the Investor Limited Partner), declare the principal of all the Bonds then outstanding,
and the interest accrued and Premium thereon, to be due and payable immediately, and upon
any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable,
anything in this Indenture or in the Bonds contained to the contrary notwithstanding, and/or
(ii) pursue such other remedies as are permitted under applicable law. Upon any such
declaration of acceleration, the Bondowner Representative shall fix a date for payment of the
Bonds.
The preceding paragraph, however, is subject to the condition that if, at any time after
the principal of the Bonds shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any
judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as
hereinafter provided, there shall have been deposited with the Bondowner Representative a
sum sufficient to pay all the principal of the Bonds matured or required to be redeemed prior
to such declaration and all matured installments of interest (if any) upon all the Bonds, with
interest on such overdue installments of principal, Premium, and the reasonable fees and
expenses of the Bondowner Representative, its agents and counsel, and any and all other
defaults actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Bondowner Representative (other than
in the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds due and payable solely by reason of
such declaration) shall have been made good or cured to the satisfaction of the Bondowner
Representative or provision deemed by the Bondowner Representative to be adequate shall
have been made therefor, then, and in every such case, the holders of at least a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding, by written notice to the Issuer and
to the Bondowner Representative and with indemnification satisfactory to the Bondowner
Representative, may, on behalf of the holders of all the Bonds, rescind and annul such
declaration and its consequences and waive such default; but no such rescission, annulment or
-23-
waiver shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default, or shall impair or exhaust any
right or power consequent thereon.
Section 7.02. Institution of Legal Proceedings by Bondowner Representative. If one
or more of the Events of Default shall occur, the Bondowner Representative in its discretion
may proceed to protect or enforce its rights or the rights of the holders of Bonds under the
Housing Act or under this Indenture and the Agreement, by a suit in equity or action at law,
either for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained herein or therein, or
in aid of the execution of any power herein or therein granted, or by mandamus or other
appropriate proceeding for the enforcement of any other legal or equitable remedy as the
Bondowner Representative shall deem most effectual in support of any of its rights or duties
hereunder.
Section 7.03. Application of Moneys Collected by Bondowner Representative. Any
moneys collected by the Bondowner Representative pursuant to Section 7.02 shall be applied in
the order following, at the date or dates fixed by the Bondowner Representative and, in the
case of distribution of such moneys on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest,
upon presentation of the Bonds and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and
upon surrender thereof, if fully paid:
First : For payment of all amounts due to the Bondowner Representative under
Section 8.06.
Second: For deposit in the Bond Fund to be applied to payment of the principal
of all Bonds then due and unpaid, Premium and interest thereon with application as
between principal, Premium and interest as the Bondowner Representative shall
determine in its sole discretion; and if there is more than one Bondowner ratably to the
persons entitled thereto without discrimination or preference.
Third: For payment of all other amounts due from the Borrower to any person
hereunder or under the Loan Agreement.
Fourth: To the Borrower.
Section 7.04. Effect of Delay or Omission to Pursue Remedy. No delay or omission of
the Bondowner Representative or of any holder of Bonds to exercise any right or power arising
from any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of
any such default or acquiescence therein, and every power and remedy given by this Article VII
to the Bondowner Representative or to the holders of Bonds may be exercised from time to
time and as often as shall be deemed expedient. In case the Bondowner Representative shall
have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture, and such proceedings shall have
been discontinued or abandoned because of waiver or for any other reason, or shall have been
determined adversely to the Bondowner Representative, then and in every such case the Issuer,
the Bondowner Representative and the holders of the Bonds, severally and respectively, shall be
restored to their former positions and rights hereunder in respect to the trust estate; and all
remedies, rights and powers of the Issuer, the Bondowner Representative and the holders of the
Bonds shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.
Section 7.05. Remedies Cumulative. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to
the Bondowner Representative or to any holder of the Bonds is intended to be exclusive of any
other remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to
every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.
-24-
Section 7.06. Covenant to Pay Bonds in Event of Default. The Issuer covenants that,
upon the happening of any Event of Default, the Issuer will pay to the Bondowner
Representative upon demand, but only out of Revenues, for the benefit of the holders of the
Bonds, the whole amount then due and payable thereon (by declaration or otherwise) for
interest or for principal, or both, as the case may be, Premium and all other sums which may
be due hereunder or secured hereby, including reasonable compensation to the Bondowner
Representative, its agents and counsel, and any expenses or liabilities incurred by the
Bondowner Representative hereunder. In case the Issuer shall fail to pay the same forthwith
upon such demand, the Bondowner Representative, in its own name, and upon being
indemnified to its satisfaction shall be entitled to institute proceedings at law or in equity in
any court of competent jurisdiction to recover judgment for the whole amount due and
unpaid, together with costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, subject, however, to the condition
that such judgment, if any, shall be limited to, and payable solely out of, Revenues and any
other assets pledged, transferred or assigned to the Bondowner Representative under Section
5.01 as herein provided and not otherwise. The Bondowner Representative shall be entitled to
recover such judgment as aforesaid, either before or after or during the pendency of any
proceedings for the enforcement of this Indenture, and the right of the Bondowner
Representative to recover such judgment shall not be affected by the exercise of any other right,
power or remedy for the enforcement of the provisions of this Indenture.
Section 7.07. Bondowner Representative Appointed Agent for Bondholders. The
Bondowner Representative is hereby appointed the agent of the holders of all Bonds
outstanding hereunder for the purpose of filing any claims relating to the Bonds.
Section 7.08. Power of Bondowner Representative to Control Proceedings. In the
event that the Bondowner Representative, upon the happening of an Event of Default, shall
have taken any action, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, pursuant to its duties hereunder,
whether upon its own discretion or upon the written request of the holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding, it shall have full power, in the exercise of its
discretion for the best interests of the holders of the Bonds, with respect to the continuance,
discontinuance, withdrawal, compromise, settlement or other disposal of such action;
provided, however, that the Bondowner Representative shall not, unless there no longer
continues an Event of Default hereunder, discontinue, withdraw, compromise or settle, or
otherwise dispose of any litigation pending at law or in equity, if at the time there has been
filed with it a written request signed by the holders of at least a majority in principal amount
of the Bonds outstanding hereunder opposing such discontinuance, withdrawal, compromise,
settlement or other disposal of such litigation.
Section 7.09. Limitation on Bondholders’ Right to Sue. No holder of any Bond issued
hereunder (except the Bondowner Representative, if it is a holder of Bonds) shall have the right
to institute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, for any remedy under or upon
this Indenture, unless (a) such holder shall have previously given to the Bondowner
Representative written notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder; (b) the
holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Bonds then outstanding
shall have made written request upon the Bondowner Representative to exercise the powers
hereinbefore granted or to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name; (c) said
holders shall have tendered to the Bondowner Representative indemnity satisfactory to it
against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; and
(d) the Bondowner Representative shall have refused or omitted to comply with such request
for a period of thirty (30) days after such written request shall have been received by, and said
tender of indemnity shall have been made to, the Bondowner Representative.
-25-
Such notification, request, tender of indemnity and refusal or omission are hereby
declared, in every case, to be conditions precedent to the exercise by any holder of Bonds
(except the Bondowner Representative, if it is a holder of Bonds) of any remedy hereunder; it
being understood and intended that no one or more holders of Bonds (except the Bondowner
Representative, if it is a holder of Bonds) shall have any right in any manner whatever by its or
their action to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided,
and that all proceedings at law or in equity to enforce any provision of this Indenture shall be
instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided and for the equal benefit of all
holders of the outstanding Bonds.
The right of any holder of any Bond to receive payment of the principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest on such Bond out of Revenues, as herein and therein provided,
on and after the respective due dates expressed in such Bond, or to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or
affected without the consent of such holder, except as otherwise provided or allowed pursuant
to Sections 5.04, 7.02 and/or 7.08 of this Indenture.
Section 7.10. Limitation of Liability to Revenues. Notwithstanding anything in this
Indenture contained, the Issuer shall not be required to advance any moneys derived from any
source, other than the Revenues, for any of the purposes mentioned in this Indenture, whether
for the payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds or for any other purpose of this
Indenture. The Bonds are limited obligations of the Issuer, and are payable from and secured
by the Revenues only. The Issuer shall not be liable for any costs, expenses, losses, damages,
claims or actions, of any conceivable kind on any conceivable theory, under or by reason of or
in connection with the Loan Agreement, the Bonds or this Indenture, except only to the extent
amounts are received for the payment thereof under the Loan Documents.
ARTICLE VIII
THE BONDOWNER REPRESENTATIVE AND AGENTS
Section 8.01. Duties, Immunities and Liabilities of Bondowner Representative. The
Bondowner Representative shall perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically
set forth in this Indenture and no additional covenants or duties of the Bondowner
Representative shall be implied in this Indenture. All of the provisions of the next two
paragraphs of this Section 8.01 shall be effective if and only during such time as the
Bondowner Representative is not the sole owner of the Bonds.
The Bondowner Representative shall, during the existence of any Event of Default
(which has not been cured or waived), exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by
this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as reasonable persons
familiar with such matters would exercise or use under similar circumstances in the conduct of
their own affairs.
No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Bondowner
Representative from liability for its own negligent action or its own negligent failure to act,
except that:
(a) the duties and obligations of the Bondowner Representative shall be
determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, the Bondowner
Representative shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and
obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or
-26-
obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Bondowner Representative; and
in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Bondowner Representative, the Bondowner
Representative may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificate or opinion furnished
to the Bondowner Representative conforming to the requirements of this Indenture;
(b) At all times, regardless of whether or not any Event of Default shall exist,

members, officers, agents and employees against all loss, costs, damages, expenses, suits,
judgments, actions and liabilities of whatever nature (including, without limitation, attorneys’
fees, litigation and court costs, amounts paid in settlement, and amounts paid to discharge
judgments) directly or indirectly resulting from or arising out of or related to any act or
omission on the part of the Bondowner Representative under this Indenture caused by the
negligence or willful misconduct of the Bondowner Representative.
If a third party makes a claim against the Issuer that may be subject to indemnification
pursuant to this Section 8.10, the Issuer shall give prompt written notice of such claim to the
Bondholder Representative; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not
release the Bondholder Representative from any of its obligations hereunder except only to the
extent the Bondholder Representative is prejudiced by such failure. The Bondholder
Representative shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such claim at its expense
through counsel of its choice, provided that such counsel is reasonably satisfactory to the

Bondholder Representative, in such defense and make available to the Bondholder
Representative any witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Issuer’s
possession as reasonably required by the Bondholder Representative. The Issuer shall have no
right to settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment against the
Issuer which is the subject of indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of
the Bondholder Representative; and the Bondholder Representative shall have no right to settle
or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment against the Issuer without
the prior written consent of the Issuer.

the opinion of the Bondowner Representative and the Issuer, to any modification of this

remaining unclaimed for two (2) years after the principal of all the outstanding Bonds has
become due and payable (whether at maturity or upon call for redemption or by declaration as
provided in this Indenture), shall then be paid to the Issuer, and the holders of such Bonds
shall thereafter be entitled to look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and only to the extent
of the amount so paid to the Issuer, and all liability of the Bondowner Representative or any
paying agent with respect to such moneys shall thereupon cease. In the event of the payment
of any such moneys to the Issuer as aforesaid, the holders of the Bonds in respect of which

subsequent notices, certificates or other communications shall be sent.
Section 11.07. Authorized Representatives. Whenever under the provisions of this
Indenture the approval of the Issuer or the Borrower is required for any action, and whenever
the Issuer or the Borrower is required to deliver any notice or other writing, such approval or
such notice or other writing shall be given, respectively, on behalf of the Issuer by an

Representative, and the Issuer, the Bondowner Representative and the Borrower shall be
authorized to act on any such approval or notice or other writing and neither party hereto nor
the Borrower shall have any complaint against the others as a result of any such action taken.
Section 11.08. Evidence of Rights of Bondholders. (a) Any request, consent or other
instrument required by this Indenture to be signed and executed by Bondholders may be in any
number of concurrent writings of substantially similar tenor and may be signed or executed by
such Bondholders in person or by agent or agents duly appointed in writing. Proof of the
execution of any such request, consent or other instrument or of a writing appointing any such
agent, or of the ownership of any Bonds, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture
and shall be conclusive in favor of the Bondowner Representative and of the Issuer if made in
the manner provided in this Section.

other instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by
the certificate of any notary public or other officer of any jurisdiction, authorized by the laws
thereof to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the person signing such request,
consent or other instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof.
(c) The ownership of Bonds shall be proved by the Bond register maintained pursuant
to Section 2.06 hereof. The fact and the date of execution of any request, consent or other
instrument and the amount and distinguishing numbers of Bonds held by the person so
executing such request, consent or other instrument may also be proved in any other manner
which the Bondowner Representative may deem sufficient. The Bondowner Representative
-35-
may nevertheless, in its discretion, require further proof in cases where it may deem further
proof desirable.

(e) In determining whether the holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of
Bonds have concurred in any demand, request, direction, consent or waiver under this
Indenture, Bonds which are owned by the Issuer or by any other direct or indirect obligor on the
Bonds, or by any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by, or under direct or
indirect common control with, the Issuer or any other direct or indirect obligor on the Bonds,
shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such
determination, provided that, for the purpose of determining whether the Bondowner
Representative shall be protected in relying on any such demand, request, direction, consent or
waiver, only Bonds which the Bondowner Representative knows to be so owned shall be
disregarded. Bonds so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as
outstanding for the purposes of this subsection (e) if the pledgee shall establish to the
satisfaction of the Bondowner Representative and the Issuer the pledgee’s right to vote such
Bonds and that the pledgee is not a person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by, or
under direct or indirect common control with, the Issuer or any other direct or indirect obligor
on the Bonds. In case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Bondowner
Representative taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Bondowner
Representative. Solely for purposes of the limitation expressed in this paragraph (e), the
Borrower shall be deemed to be an indirect obligor on the Bonds.

Bondowner Representative may call and hold a meeting of the Bondholders upon such notice
and in accordance with such rules and regulations as the Bondowner Representative considers
fair and reasonable for the purpose of obtaining any such action.

be subject to any personal liability or accountability by reason of the issuance thereof; but
nothing herein contained shall relieve any such person from the performance of any official
duty provided by law or by this Indenture.
Section 11.10. Holidays. If the date for making any payment or the last date for
performance of any act or the exercising of any right, as provided in this Indenture, is not a
Business Day, such payment may be made or act performed or right exercised on the next
succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if done on the date provided
therefor in this Indenture and, in the case of any payment, no interest shall accrue for the
period from and after such date.
Section 11.11. Execution in Several Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in
any number of counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to
be an original; and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same
instrument.

construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable to contracts made

business matters, including the purchase and ownership of tax-exempt obligations, and
is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Bonds. The
Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of, and an entire loss of, an investment in the
Bonds.
(c) The Purchaser is acquiring the Bonds solely for its own account for
investment purposes, and does not presently intend to make a public distribution of, or
to resell or transfer, all or any part of the Bonds, except as may be permitted by the
Indenture.
(d) The Purchaser understands that the Bonds have not been registered under
the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under any state securities
laws. The Purchaser agrees that it will comply with any applicable state and federal
securities laws then in effect with respect to any disposition of the Bonds by it, and
further acknowledges that any current exemption from registration of the Bonds does
not affect or diminish such requirements.
(e) The Purchaser is familiar with the conditions, financial and otherwise, of the
Borrower and understands that the Borrower has no significant assets other than the
Development for payment of the Bonds. Further, the Purchaser understands that the
Bonds involve a high degree of risk. Specifically, and without in any manner limiting the
foregoing, the Purchaser understands and acknowledges that, among other risks, the
Bonds are payable solely from the Revenues and that, following the Conversion Date
(as defined in the Loan Agreement referenced in the Indenture) the obligations of the
B-2
Borrower under the Loan Agreement are not recourse obligations against the general
assets of the Borrower, but are secured only by the assets of the Borrower referred to in
the Loan Agreement. The Purchaser has been provided an opportunity to ask
questions of, and the Purchaser has received answers from, representatives of the
Borrower and the Bondowner Representative regarding the terms and conditions of the
Bonds. The Purchaser has obtained all information requested by it in connection with
the issuance of the Bonds as it regards necessary to evaluate all merits and risks of its
investment in the Bonds. The Purchaser has reviewed the documents executed in
conjunction with the issuance of the Bonds, including, without limitation, the

(f) The Purchaser is not now and has never been controlled by, or under
common control with, the Borrower. The Borrower has never been and is not now
controlled by the Purchaser. The Purchaser has entered into no arrangements with the
Borrower or with any affiliate in connection with the Bonds, other than as disclosed in

Purchaser and is authorized to cause the Purchaser to make the certificates,
representations and warranties contained herein by execution of this letter on behalf of
the Purchaser.
(h) In entering into this transaction, the Purchaser has not relied upon any
representations or opinions of the Issuer or the Bondowner Representative relating to
the legal consequences or other aspects of its investment in the Bonds, nor has it looked
to, nor expected, the Issuer to undertake or require any credit investigation or due
diligence reviews relating to the Borrower, its financial condition or business operations,
the Development, including the financing or management thereof, or any other matter
pertaining to the merits or risks of the transactions contemplated by the Loan
Agreement and the Indenture, or the adequacy of the funds pledged to the Bondowner
Representative to secure repayment of the Bonds.
(i) The Purchaser understands that the Bonds are not secured by any pledge of
any moneys received or to be received from taxation by the Issuer (which has no taxing
power), the State of California or any political subdivision or taxing district thereof;
that the Bonds will never represent or constitute a general obligation or a pledge of the
faith and credit of the Issuer, the State of California or any political subdivision thereof;
that no right will exist to have taxes levied by the State of California or any political
subdivision thereof for the payment of principal and interest on the Bonds; and that the
liability of the Issuer with respect to the Bonds is subject to further limitations as set
forth in the Bonds and the Indenture.
(j) The Purchaser has been informed that the Bonds (i) have not been and will
not be registered or otherwise qualified for sale under the “Blue Sky” laws and
regulations of any jurisdiction, (ii) will not be listed on any stock or other securities
exchange, and (iii) will carry no rating from any rating service.
(k) The Purchaser acknowledges that it has the right to sell and transfer the
Bonds, including interests in the Bonds, subject to compliance with the transfer
restrictions set forth in Section 2.05 of the Indenture, including in certain circumstances
the requirement for the delivery to the Issuer and the Bondowner Representative of an
B-3
investor’s letter in the same form as this Investor’s Letter, including this paragraph.
Failure to comply with the provisions of Section 2.05 of the Indenture shall cause the
purported transfer to be null and void. The Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Issuer with respect to any claim asserted against the Issuer that arises
with respect to any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Bonds by the Purchaser or
any transferee thereof in violation of the provisions of the Indenture.
(l) None of the Bondowner Representative, Bond Counsel, the Issuer, its Board
of Supervisors, or any of its employees, counsel or agents will have any responsibility to
the Purchaser for the accuracy or completeness of information obtained by the
Purchaser from any source regarding the Borrower or its financial condition or the
Development, or regarding the Bonds, the provision for payment thereof, or the
sufficiency of any security therefor. No written information has been provided by the
Issuer to the Purchaser with respect to the Bonds. The Purchaser acknowledges that,
as between the Purchaser and all of such parties, the Purchaser has assumed
responsibility for obtaining such information and making such review as the Purchaser
deemed necessary or desirable in connection with its decision to purchase the Bonds.
(m) The Purchaser acknowledges that the Bonds are exempt from the
requirements of Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that the
Issuer has not undertaken to provide any continuing disclosure with respect to the
Bonds.

(within the meaning of Section 147(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended).
The Purchaser acknowledges that the sale of the Bonds to the Purchaser is made
in reliance upon the certifications, representations and warranties herein by the
addressees hereto. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the
meanings given such terms in the Indenture.

power surges or failures, acts of government, labor disputes, failures in communications networks, legal constraints
or other events beyond Bondowner Representative’s control; or (iii) any special, consequential, indirect or punitive

third party as a representation or warranty of compliance with this Loan Agreement or any other agreement. No site
visit, observation or examination by Bondowner Representative will impose any liability on Bondowner
Representative with respect to the adequacy of the design or rehabilitation of the Project or result in a waiver of any
default of Borrower or be a representation that Borrower is or will be in compliance with the Plans and
Specifications, that the rehabilitation work is free from defective materials or workmanship, or that the rehabilitation
work complies with all applicable Requirements. Neither Borrower nor any other party is entitled to rely on any site

(c) In the event Borrower shall fail to maintain, or cause to be maintained, the full insurance
coverage required by this Loan Agreement or shall fail to keep the Project in good repair and good
operating condition and make all necessary repairs and replacements to the Project, the Bondowner

modifications, alterations, or changes to the Project (collectively referred to as “alterations”) in or to the Project or
remove any equipment therefrom other than in the ordinary course of business in the operation of the Project.
Notwithstanding the provisions of the Deed of Trust, no such alteration or removal will be made if to do so would

on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes.
5.18 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE. If, based on any construction progress schedule or other
materials submitted by Borrower, Bondowner Representative in its reasonable judgment determines that the Project
will not be completed by the Completion Date, Bondowner Representative may request Borrower in writing to
reschedule the work of rehabilitation to permit timely completion. In addition, if Bondowner Representative in its

request, all acts necessary to perfect any lien or security interest provided for in the Loan Documents.

-35-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
other cancellation or any modification (including a reduction in coverage). Bondowner Representative and
Issuer shall be named under a Bondowner Representative’s Loss Payable Endorsement (Form #438BFU or
equivalent) on all insurance policies which Borrower actually maintains with respect to the Property and
Improvements. All insurance policies shall be issued and maintained by insurers approved to do business
in the state in which the Property is located and must have an A.M. Best Company financial rating and
policyholder surplus acceptable to Bondowner Representative. All proceeds of insurance policies shall be
controlled by Bondowner Representative and disbursed by Bondowner Representative pursuant to and in

evidence of any other hazard insurance Bondowner Representative may deem necessary at any time during

dates, and loss payable and cancellation provisions. The maximum allowable deductible is $5,000.00. In
addition, each required policy must contain such endorsements as CCRC may require, as well as a Lenders
Loss Payable Endorsement ISO CP 1218 or 438 BFU or its equivalent in favor of CCRC at 225 West
Broadway, Suite 120, Glendale, California 91204, and must provide that all proceeds be payable to CCRC
to the extent of its interest. An approval by CCRC is not, and shall not be deemed to be, a representation of
the solvency of any insurer or the sufficiency of any amount of insurance. Co-insurance shall not be
allowed in connection with the policies of insurance required hereunder. At all times, Borrower shall
provide, maintain and keep in force all insurance required in Sections 7.1 through 7.6 above. In the event
that either (1) the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
requires regulated financial institutions or entities such as Bondowner Representative to require the
Borrower to insure against earthquakes, or (2) either Fannie Mae or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation requires that collateral for loans in its respective affordable housing program be insured
against earthquakes, or (3) the Land or the Improvements are or become located in an “Alquist-Priolo”
zone as determined by reference to applicable California law, then, only in such event, Bondowner
Representative shall have the right to require the Borrower to obtain earthquake insurance; provided,
however, that such insurance must also comply with the standard set forth in the preceding sentence.
(c) Each policy of insurance required under the Loan Documents must provide that it may
not be modified or canceled without at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Bondowner
Representative. At least ten (10) days before expiration of any required insurance policy, Borrower shall
furnish Bondowner Representative and Issuer with proof acceptable to Bondowner Representative and
Issuer that a new policy has been issued, continuing in force the insurance covered by the policy that is
expiring. At the same time, Borrower shall also furnish Bondowner Representative and Issuer with
evidence satisfactory to Bondowner Representative that all premiums for any such new policy have been
paid. If at least ten (10) days before a required policy expires, Bondowner Representative and Issuer do not
receive proof and evidence that a new policy has been issued and that the premiums for it have been paid,
Bondowner Representative in its sole discretion may procure a new policy and advance funds to pay the
premiums for it. Borrower shall repay Bondowner Representative immediately on demand for any advance
for such premiums, which shall be considered to be an additional loan to the Borrower bearing interest at
the rate of interest provided for in the Note, and secured by the Loan Documents.
(d) Upon an Event of Default, whether or not the same has thereafter been cured or waived
by Bondowner Representative, but for the lapse of any applicable grace period, Borrower shall, at the
request of Bondowner Representative, deposit with Bondowner Representative, in monthly installments in
advance on the first day of each month, an amount sufficient, as reasonably estimated by Bondowner
Representative, to pay all insurance premiums next due on all policies of insurance required by this Loan
Agreement or the other Loan Documents. In such event, Borrower further agrees, upon Bondowner
Representative’s request, to cause all bills, statements or other documents relating to the foregoing
insurance premiums to be sent or mailed directly to Bondowner Representative. Upon receipt of such bills,
statements or other documents, and provided Borrower has deposited sufficient funds with Bondowner
-36-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
Representative pursuant to this Section 7.7, Bondowner Representative shall pay such premiums as may be
due thereunder out of the funds so deposited with Bondowner Representative. If at any time and for any
reason the funds deposited with Bondowner Representative are or will be insufficient to pay such premiums
as may then or subsequently be due, Bondowner Representative may notify Borrower and Borrower shall
immediately deposit an amount equal to the deficiency with Bondowner Representative. If at any time the
funds deposited with Bondowner Representative exceed the amount deemed necessary by Bondowner
Representative to pay such premiums as may then or subsequently be due, such excess shall be credited to
Borrower on the next monthly installment or installments of such funds. Upon payment and performance
in full of the Loan all indebtedness and obligations under the Loan Documents, Bondowner Representative
shall promptly refund to Borrower any such funds held by Bondowner Representative. Nothing herein
shall cause Bondowner Representative to be deemed a trustee of such funds or to be obligated to pay any
amounts in excess of the amount of funds deposited with Bondowner Representative pursuant to this
Section 7.7. Bondowner Representative may commingle such deposits with its own funds and Borrower
shall not be entitled to any interest thereon.

Indemnitor), and/or any Guarantor, fairly and accurately represent the financial condition of the subject
thereof as of the date hereof and have been prepared (except as noted therein) in accordance with generally

Borrower’s Funds, the proceeds of the Subordinate Loan(s), the Capital Contributions, and all other sums,

delivered to Bondowner Representative by Borrower concerning the Loan or security for the Loan or
required by the Loan Documents are accurate, correct and sufficiently complete to give Bondowner
Representative true and accurate knowledge of their subject matter, and do not contain any
misrepresentation or omission; provided, however, that with respect to any reports, documents, instruments,
information and forms of evidence delivered to Bondowner Representative that were prepared solely by a
third party, the foregoing representation and warranty shall be limited to Borrower’s knowledge after full
and due inquiry.
(q) Tax Liability. Borrower and General Partner have filed all required federal, state, county
and municipal tax returns and have paid all applicable taxes and assessments owed and payable, and
Borrower has no knowledge of any basis for any additional payment with respect to any such taxes and
assessments.

Capital Contribution, not use any of the proceeds of the Capital Contributions for any purpose other than for

11.5 OTHER INVESTMENT IN BORROWER. Any investments in or contributions (other than the

leases, and all other income derived from the Property, to pay costs and expenses associated with the ownership,
maintenance, development, operation, and marketing of the Borrower’s interest in the Property and the

11.11 SUBDIVISION MAPS. Prior to recording any final map, plat, parcel map, lot line adjustment or
other subdivision map of any kind covering any portion of the Property (collectively, “Subdivision Map”),
Borrower shall submit such Subdivision Map to Bondowner Representative for Bondowner Representative’s review
and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Within ten (10) Business Days after Bondowner
Representative’s receipt of such Subdivision Map, Bondowner Representative shall provide Borrower written notice
if Bondowner Representative disapproves of said Subdivision Map. Bondowner Representative shall be deemed to
have approved the Subdivision Map if such notice is not provided to Borrower. Within five (5) Business Days after
Bondowner Representative’s request, Borrower shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Bondowner
Representative such amendments to the Loan Documents as Bondowner Representative may reasonably require to

recorded in connection with such amendments, Borrower shall deliver to Bondowner Representative, at Borrower’s
sole expense, a title endorsement to the Title Policy in form and substance satisfactory to Bondowner Representative
insuring the continued first priority lien of the Deed of Trust, subject only to the Permitted Prior Encumbrances.
Subject to the execution and delivery by Borrower of any documents required under this Section, Bondowner
Representative shall, if required by applicable law, sign any Subdivision Map approved, or deemed to be approved,
by Bondowner Representative pursuant to this Section.
11.12 OPINION OF LEGAL COUNSEL. Borrower shall provide, at Borrower’s expense, at Closing
and on the Conversion Date, if requested by CCRC, an opinion of legal counsel in form and content satisfactory to
Bondowner Representative which opinion shall be transferable and shall state that Bondowner Representative’s
successors and assigns as holder of the Note are permitted to rely on the opinion, to the effect that: (a) upon due
authorization, execution and recordation or filing as may be specified in the opinion, each of the Loan Documents
shall be legal, valid and binding instruments, enforceable against the makers thereof in accordance with their
respective terms; (b) Borrower is duly formed and has all requisite authority to enter into the Loan Documents; and
(c) such other matters, incident to the transactions contemplated hereby, as Bondowner Representative may

Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents or to perfect and preserve any liens created by the Loan
Documents.
11.14 ASSIGNMENT. Without the prior written consent of Bondowner Representative, Borrower shall
not assign Borrower’s interest under any of the Loan Documents, or in any monies due or to become due thereunder,

-51-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
except in reliance on Borrower’s expertise, reputation, prior experience in developing and constructing commercial
real property, Bondowner Representative’s knowledge of Borrower, and Bondowner Representative’s understanding
that this Loan Agreement is more in the nature of an agreement involving personal services than a standard loan
where Bondowner Representative would rely on security which already exists. Bondowner Representative shall not
unreasonably withhold its consent to a transfer to the Developer pursuant to the purchase option and right of first
refusal to be granted to the Developer in connection with the Partnership Agreement.
11.15 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Borrower shall comply with all laws and requirements of
Governmental Authorities and all rights of third parties, relating to the Property or Borrower’s business or other
properties, and deliver to Bondowner Representative from time to time, within 10 days of Bondowner
Representative’s request therefor, evidence satisfactory to Bondowner Representative that Borrower has complied
with any such law, requirement or right.
11.16 MAINTENANCE AND SECURITY FOR PROJECT. Borrower shall maintain the Project in
good condition and repair subject to reasonable wear and tear (such condition and repair to be consistent with that of

security of the Project, and not permit any waste or damage with respect to the Project.
11.17 NOTICE OF CERTAIN MATTERS. Borrower shall give notice to Bondowner Representative
and the Issuer, within 7 days of Borrower’s actual knowledge thereof, of each of the following:
(a) any litigation or claim of any kind affecting or relating to Borrower or to Guarantor until
the Conversion Date, and involving an amount in excess of $50,000.00, and any litigation or claim of any
kind that might subject Borrower to liability in excess of $50,000.00, whether covered by insurance or not;
(b) any aspect of the Project that is not in conformity with the Plans and Specifications in a
material respect;
(c) the creation or imposition of any mechanic’s lien, materialmen’s lien or other lien against
the Project unless Borrower shall post statutory bonds or other security satisfactory to Bondowner
Representative sufficient to cause the removal of such lien;
(d) the occurrence of any default that remains uncured beyond any applicable notice and cure
period by Borrower or any other party under any Project Agreement, or the receipt by Borrower of any
notice of default under any Project Agreement;
(e) the occurrence of any dispute between Borrower and any Governmental Authority
relating to the Project, the adverse determination of which might materially affect the Project;
(f) the occurrence of any threat or commencement of proceedings in condemnation or
eminent domain relating to Borrower’s ownership of the Project;
(g) the use of any trade name hereafter used by Borrower in connection with the Project,
other than the use of the trade name selected by Borrower prior to lease-up and occupancy of the Project;
(h) any change in Borrower’s principal place of business;

23334304
Loan No. 1005254
(k) any communication, whether written or oral, that Borrower may receive from any
governmental, judicial or legal authority, giving notice of any claim or assertion that the Property fail in
any material respect to comply with any of the Requirements or any applicable governmental law,
11.18 LIENS ON PROPERTY. Borrower shall not cause or suffer to become effective any lien,
restriction or other title limitation affecting any part of the Property other than mechanics’ liens permitted pursuant
to Section 4.3(g), the Regulatory Agreement, the Deed of Trust, the Permitted Encumbrances, the Agency
Regulatory Agreement, the County Regulatory Agreement, the TCAC Regulatory Agreement, deeds of trust relating
to the Subordinate Loans and any other liens or encumbrances previously approved by Bondowner Representative in
writing and the inchoate liens securing the payment of taxes and assessments not delinquent. Borrower
acknowledges that, with any project of the magnitude of the Project, modifications of the Plans and Specifications
and Loan Documents may be necessary from time to time and that the existence of junior lienholders, who would be
required to consent to such modifications in order to protect the priority of the lien of the Deed of Trust, could
impair the expeditious completion of the Project, to the detriment of all parties.
11.19 PROHIBITION OF TRANSFER.
(a) Borrower represents, agrees and acknowledges that:
(i) Development of real property is a highly complex activity which requires
substantial knowledge of law and business conditions and practices, and an
ability to control, coordinate and schedule the many factors affecting such
development. Experience, financial stability, managerial ability and a good
reputation in the business community enhance a developer’s ability to obtain
market rents (or maximum permissible rents pursuant to the Regulatory
Agreement) and/or sales prices and to induce cooperation in scheduling and are
taken into account by Bondowner Representative in approving loan applications.
(ii) Borrower has represented to Bondowner Representative, not only in the
representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents, but also in its
initial credit application and in all of the negotiations connected with the Loan,
certain facts concerning Borrower’s financial stability, managerial and
operational ability, reputation, skill, and creditworthiness. Bondowner
Representative has relied upon these representations and warranties as a
substantial and material consideration in its decision to enter into this Loan
Agreement.
(iii) The conditions and terms provided in this Loan Agreement were induced by
these representations and warranties and would not have been made available by
Bondowner Representative in the absence of these representations and
warranties.
(iv) Borrower’s financial stability and managerial and operational ability and that of
those persons or entities having a direct or beneficial interest in Borrower are a
substantial and material consideration to any third parties who have entered or
will enter into agreements with Borrower.
(v) Bondowner Representative has relied upon the skills and services offered by
such third parties and the provision of such skills and services is jeopardized if
Borrower breaches its covenants contained below regarding transfers.
(vi) Except as otherwise permitted under Section 11.19(b), a transfer of possession
of or title to the Property, or a change in the person or entity operating,
developing, constructing or managing the Property would substantially increase
-53-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
the risk of Default under the Loan Documents and significantly and materially
impair and reduce Bondowner Representative’s security for the obligations
under this Loan Agreement.
(b) In consideration of Bondowner Representative’s induced reliance on such
representations, warranties and agreements, Borrower shall not make any transfer prohibited by
Section 5.12 of the Deed of Trust. Bondowner Representative acknowledges that Borrower has executed
the Purchase Option Agreement and agrees that the exercise of the purchase option, right of first refusal,
put and/or call right contemplated therein shall be permitted without the prior approval of Bondowner
Representative and shall not constitute a violation of this Section 11.19 [note: we need to review the
Purchase Option Agreement before agreeing to this]. Any transfer or purchase not contemplated therein
or otherwise permitted under this Loan Agreement shall constitute a violation of this Section 11.19 unless
Bondowner Representative has given its prior written consent thereto.
(c) Without the prior written consent of Bondowner Representative, Borrower shall not
assign Borrower’s interest under any of the Bond Documents or Loan Documents, or in any monies due or
to become due thereunder, and any assignment without such consent shall be void.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Agreement or the other Loan
Documents to the contrary:
(i) The Investor Limited Partner of the Borrower shall be permitted to remove the
general partner of Borrower for cause and substitute a new general partner in its
place in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement;
provided, however, that (A) Investor Limited Partner shall obtain the prior
written consent of Bondowner Representative to such removal and substitution,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that no
such consent shall be required if the substitute general partner is an Investor
Affiliate; (B) Investor Limited Partner can demonstrate to Bondowner
Representative’s reasonable satisfaction that the Loan is “in balance”
notwithstanding any loss of property tax exemption which may result in such
substitution, (C) the substitute general partner shall be selected no later than
thirty (30) days and admitted no later than sixty (60) days after the date of
removal of the general partner or such longer period of time as Bondowner
Representative may consent to, and (D) the substitute general partner shall
execute and deliver to Bondowner Representative such documents as
Bondowner Representative may reasonably require in order to evidence its
assumption of all of the rights and obligations of the removed general partner
under all the Loan Documents.
(ii) The Investor Limited Partner may make a transfer of its interest in Borrower as a
result of the exercise of the purchase option granted to General Partner or an
affiliate of General Partner as set forth in the Partnership Documents.
(iii) The Investor Limited Partner may make a Permitted Transfer of its interest in
Borrower to an Investor Affiliate.
(iv) The Investor Limited Partner may pledge its interest in Borrower as collateral
for a loan to fund the Capital Contributions.
11.20 MANAGEMENT OF PROPERTY. Without the prior written consent of Bondowner
Representative, Borrower shall not enter into any agreement providing for the management, leasing or operation of
the Property or Improvements. Bondowner Representative hereby approves of the Property Management

Loan No. 1005254

(i) amend, modify or waive any default under the Property Management Agreement, or any successor thereof,
without Bondowner Representative’s prior written consent, or (ii) dismiss or replace the Property Manager without
Bondowner Representative’s prior written consent.

(a) The Partnership Documents;
(b) The Agency DDA;

without Bondowner Representative’s prior written consent (i) to effectuate any transfer and admission

requirements of Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, or
the requirements of TCAC. After any change to the Partnership Agreement, whether it requires
Bondowner Representative’s consent or not, Borrower shall promptly provide a revised version thereof to
Bondowner Representative. Further, during the term of the Loan, no General Partner shall jeopardize in a
material way the Property or the financial viability of the Borrower by (i) violating its fiduciary
responsibilities under the Partnership Agreement, or (ii) willfully violating any law, regulation or order
applicable to the Partnership, and such violations are not remedied or cured as permitted, in the time frames
provided, under the Partnership Agreement. Borrower shall notify Bondowner Representative and
promptly deliver to Bondowner Representative copies of all written notices by any party under the
Partnership Agreement. All funds received by Borrower from the Capital Contributions of Investor
Limited Partner pursuant to the Partnership Documents until Conversion has occurred, except for a portion
which Bondowner Representative agrees may be used to pay certain syndication fees and other permitted
Project Costs, are to be paid promptly to Bondowner Representative for application to costs of
rehabilitation of the Improvements and other approved development expenses, payment of developer fees,

amount of the Capital Contributions or alter the time for payment or impair or alter the obligations of the
Investor Limited Partner to make or fully fund Capital Contributions in the amounts required pursuant to
Section 4.1(m) of this Loan Agreement, provided however that this Section 11.21 shall not prevent the
Borrower from accepting any Capital Contributions under the Partnership Agreement; and the Partnership
Documents shall remain in full force and effect until all sums owing with respect to the Loan have been
paid, subject to any purchase of Limited Partner’s interests in Borrower upon the terms and conditions set
forth in this Loan Agreement.

(together with any accrued interest). Borrower shall not be required to pay or cause to be paid any Imposition so
long as (d) its validity is being actively contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings, (e) Borrower has
demonstrated to Bondowner Representative’s reasonable satisfaction that leaving such Imposition unpaid pending

Representative shall so request, Borrower has furnished Bondowner Representative with a bond or other security
satisfactory to Bondowner Representative in an amount not less than 100% of the applicable claim. Upon demand

11.30 SUBORDINATION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS. To the
fullest extent allowed by law, any deed of trust, mortgage, regulatory agreement, covenant or restrictive agreement
or other instrument evidencing, securing or related to any financing or regulatory requirements imposed by TCAC or
any other party on Borrower or the Property, and any obligations related thereto, shall be and remain subordinate to
the Loan, and shall be subordinated to the Deed of Trust by an instrument or instruments satisfactory to Bondowner
Representative and its counsel, with the exception of the Regulatory Agreement and the other Permitted Prior
Encumbrances. No proceeds of collateral or payments of principal, interest or other amounts due and owing with
respect to any other obligations described herein, following a Default under the Loan Documents, shall be received
by obligee until the Loan shall have been paid in full.
11.31 IMPOUNDS FOR REAL PROPERTY TAXES. Bondowner Representative shall have the
right, following Conversion, to require Borrower to establish an account for the payment of property taxes and all
other expenses required to be paid under the Deed of Trust on the terms and conditions set forth in the Deed of
-58-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
Trust. After a Default has occurred, whether or not the same has thereafter been cured, at the request of Bondowner
Representative, Borrower shall deposit with Bondowner Representative, in monthly installments in advance on the
first day of each month, an amount sufficient, as reasonably estimated by Bondowner Representative, to pay all
Impositions (as defined in the Deed of Trust) for the Property.
11.32 NO SALE OF PROPERTY. Except as permitted in this Loan Agreement, the Regulatory
Agreement and the Deed of Trust, Borrower shall not sell, convey, or otherwise transfer or dispose of its interest in
any Property, nor contract to do any of the foregoing, without the prior written consent of Bondowner
Representative in each instance, except such Property as is customarily transferred in the ordinary course of
operation of residential multi-family rental developments.
11.33 NONRESIDENTIAL LEASES. Leases entered into from and after the Conversion Date other
than for residential units within the Improvements, including, without limitation, leases for laundry equipment,
vending machines, administrative space by affiliates of Borrower, General Partner, Property Manager, or otherwise,
and commercial space within the Improvements (if any, “Nonresidential Lease(s)”), must be approved by
Bondowner Representative prior to execution thereof, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Borrower
shall comply in all respects with any restrictions or guidelines as to the rents or other fees that may be charged for
such nonresidential space, if any, which are contained in the Loan Documents, the Requirements or in any other
agreement by which Borrower or the Property may be bound and which has been approved by Bondowner
Representative in writing. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default (as defined in
Section 13.1 below), Bondowner Representative may make written demand on Borrower to submit all rents under
the Nonresidential Leases to Bondowner Representative.
11.34 LANDLORD OBLIGATIONS. Borrower shall perform all obligations required to be performed
by it as landlord under any lease affecting any part of the Property or Improvements.
11.35 [RESERVED].
11.36 COVENANT FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BONDHOLDERS. Borrower recognizes the
authority of the Issuer to assign its interest in and pledge moneys receivable under this Loan Agreement to
Bondowner Representative as security for the payment of the principal of and interest and redemption premiums, if
any, on the Bonds, and the payment of all other amounts as set forth in Article 3 of this Loan Agreement (other than
Sections 3.3(g) and (h), 3.4 and 3.16 to the extent payable to the Issuer). Borrower hereby (i) agrees to be bound by
the Issuer’s grant of such assignment and pledge, (ii) grants to the Bondowner Representative a security interest in
any right and interest Borrower may have in sums held in the Funds described in Article V of the Indenture, to
secure the obligations of Borrower under this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (iii) agrees that
the Bondowner Representative shall have all of the rights of a secured party under the California Uniform
Commercial Code in connection with such security interest. Each of the terms and provisions of this Loan
Agreement is a covenant for the use and benefit of the Bondholders and the Bondowner Representative, so long as
the Bonds shall remain Outstanding; but upon payment in full of the Bonds in accordance with the Indenture and of
all fees and charges requested under Sections 3.3 and 3.4 of this Loan Agreement, all references in this Loan
Agreement to the Bondowner Representative, the Bonds and the Bondholders shall be ineffective, and the
Bondholders and the Bondowner Representative shall thereafter have no rights hereunder, save and except those that
shall have theretofore vested or that arise from provisions hereunder which survive termination of this Loan
Agreement.
11.37 INSPECTION AND ACCESS.
(a) Borrower agrees that the Issuer, the Bondowner Representative and their duly authorized
agents, shall have the right to examine and inspect during normal business hours, and for that purpose to
enter upon, the Property, and shall also have such right of access thereto at reasonable times and under
reasonable conditions and subject to the rights of tenants in possession as may be reasonably necessary to
cause the Project to be properly maintained in accordance with Article 5 and in accordance with the
applicable provisions of the other Loan Documents. In each instance, the Issuer, the Bondowner
-59-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
Representative and their duly authorized agents will give Borrower reasonable notice before entering the
Project premises and make reasonable efforts to avoid interfering with Borrower’s use of the Property when
exercising any of the rights granted in this Section.
(b) Subject to the restrictions of all applicable laws, Borrower hereby covenants to execute,
acknowledge and deliver all such further documents, and do all such other acts and things as may be
necessary in order to grant to the Issuer and the Bondowner Representative the rights of access and entry
described herein and agrees that such rights of access and entry shall not be terminated, curtailed or
otherwise limited by any assignment, lease or other transfer of the Property by Borrower to any other
person and subject to the rights of tenants in possession at reasonable times and under reasonable
conditions.
11.38 INDEMNITY.
(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower agrees to indemnify, hold harmless
and defend the Issuer, the Bondowner Representative, and each of their respective officers, governing
members, directors, officials, employees, attorneys and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”),
against any and all losses, damages, claims, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses of any conceivable
nature, kind or character (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, litigation and court
costs, amounts paid in settlement and amounts paid to discharge judgments) except arising out of
Bondowner Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, to which the Indemnified Parties, or
any of them, may become subject under or any statutory law (including federal or state securities laws) or
at common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon or in any way relating to:
(i) the Bonds, the Indenture, this Loan Agreement or any other document to which
the Issuer is a party, or the execution or amendment hereof or thereof or in
connection with transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including the
issuance, sale or resale of the Bonds;
(ii) any act or omission of the Borrower or any of its agents, contractors,
subcontractors, engineers, architects, material suppliers, servants, employees or
licensees in connection with the Project, the operation of the Project, or the
condition, environmental or otherwise, occupancy, use, possession, conduct or
management of work done in or about, or from the planning, design, acquisition,
installation or construction of, the Project or any part thereof;
(iii) any lien or charge upon payments by the Borrower to the Issuer and the
Bondowner Representative hereunder, or any taxes (including, without
limitation, all ad valorem taxes and sales taxes), assessments, impositions and
other charges imposed on the Issuer or the Bondowner Representative in respect
of any portion of the Project;
(iv) any violation of any environmental regulations with respect to, or the release of
any hazardous substances from, the Project or any part thereof;
(v) the defeasance and/or redemption, in whole or in part, of the Bonds;
(vi) any untrue statement or misleading statement or alleged untrue statement or
alleged misleading statement of a material fact contained in any offering
statement or disclosure or continuing disclosure document for the Bonds or any
of the documents relating to the Bonds, or any omission or alleged omission
from any offering statement or disclosure or continuing disclosure document for
the Bonds of any material fact necessary to be stated therein in order to make the
-60-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading;
(vii) any declaration of taxability of interest on the Bonds, or allegations (or
regulatory inquiry) that interest on the Bonds is taxable, for federal tax purposes
(except in the hands of a substantial user); and
(viii) the Bondowner Representative’s acceptance or administration of the trust of the
Indenture, or the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
thereunder or under any of the documents relating to the Bonds to which it is a
party; except (a) in the case of the foregoing indemnification of the Bondowner
Representative or any of its respective officers, members, directors, officials,
employees, attorneys and agents, to the extent such damages are caused by the
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party; or (b) in the case of
the foregoing indemnification of the Issuer or any of its officers, members,
directors, officials, employees, attorneys and agents, to the extent such damages
are caused by the willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. In the event
that any action or proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Party with
respect to which indemnity may be sought hereunder, the Borrower, upon
written notice from the Indemnified Party, shall assume the investigation and
defense thereof, including the employment of counsel acceptable to the
Indemnified Party, and shall assume the payment of all expenses related thereto,
with full power to litigate, compromise or settle the same in its sole discretion;
provided that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to review and approve
or disapprove any such compromise or settlement. Each Indemnified Party shall
have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action or proceeding and
participate in the investigation and defense thereof, and the Borrower shall pay
the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel; provided, however,
that such Indemnified Party may only employ separate counsel at the expense of
the Borrower if in the judgment of such Indemnified Party a conflict of interest
exists or could arise by reason of common representation or if all parties
commonly represented do not agree as to the action (or inaction) of counsel.
(b) The rights of any persons to indemnity hereunder and rights to payment of fees and
reimbursement of expenses hereunder shall survive the final payment or defeasance of the Bonds and in the
case of the Bondowner Representative any resignation or removal. The provisions of this Section shall
survive the termination of this Loan Agreement.
(c) The Borrower further covenants that nothing within this Section 11.38 shall limit the
rights of the Issuer, the program participants of the Issuer and its respective officers, governing members,
directors, officials, employees, attorneys and agents to indemnity under Section 9 of the Regulatory
Agreement and that such indemnification shall survive the termination and discharge of this Loan
Agreement.
11.39 TAX STATUS OF BONDS. Borrower hereby covenants, represents and agrees as follows:
(a) that Borrower will not take or permit any action to be taken that would adversely affect either the exclusion from
gross income for federal income tax purposes of the interest on the Bonds and, if it should take or permit any such
action, Borrower will take all lawful actions to rescind such action promptly upon having knowledge thereof; and
(b) that Borrower will take such action or actions, including amending the Loan and this Loan Agreement, as
determined reasonably necessary in the opinion of Bond Counsel to comply fully with all applicable rules, rulings,
policies, procedures, regulations or other official statements promulgated or proposed by the United States
Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service under the Code. Borrower further covenants and agrees
that it will direct all investments in compliance with the Code. Borrower covenants and agrees to cause to be
calculated by an arbitrage consultant and pay to the United States any amounts owing to the United States as
-61-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
rebatable arbitrage in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Tax Certificate and Section 6.08 of the
Indenture.
11.40 INCORPORATION OF TAX CERTIFICATE. The covenants, representations, warranties and
agreements of Borrower set forth in the Tax Certificate are incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth
herein.
11.41 LOSS OF TAX EXCLUSION. Borrower understands that the interest rates provided under the
Note and this Loan Agreement have been established on the assumption that interest paid on the Bonds will be
excludable from the Bondholders’ gross income under Section 103 of the Code and applicable State law (except to
the extent that any Bonds are owned by a person or entity which is a “substantial user” of the Property or a “related
person” to the Borrower). In the event that (i) Borrower receives notice from Bondowner Representative that
Bondowner Representative has discovered any facts or circumstances that would cause interest paid on the Bonds
not to be tax-exempt; or (ii) any Bondholder receives notice from the Internal Revenue Service or other
governmental authority that interest payable on the Bonds is not tax-exempt, or that the Internal Revenue Service is
challenging the tax-exempt status of the Bonds, then the interest rate shall be increased, both prospectively and
retroactively, to an annual variable rate equal to the Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any change in the
interest rate on the Bonds pursuant to this Section 11.41 applicable on and after the Conversion Date shall cause the
Note to bear interest at the Default Rate. In the event of an increase in the interest rate under this Section 11.41,
Borrower shall pay to the Bondholders promptly upon demand an amount sufficient to adjust previous payments of
interest to the increased rate. Borrower shall also indemnify, defend and hold Issuer and Bondowner Representative
harmless from any penalties, interest expense or other costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (including all
charges of Issuer’s and Bondowner Representative’s internal and tax counsel) and accountants’ costs, resulting from
any dispute with the Internal Revenue Service concerning the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax
purposes of interest on the Bonds and the interest payable to any Bondholder on the Bonds, and upon receipt by
Bondowner Representative of the amounts set forth in the foregoing indemnity, Bondowner Representative shall
assign to Borrower any claims it may have against third parties for negligent acts or omissions in connection with
the failure of interest on the Bonds to be excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The
obligations of Borrower under this paragraph shall survive termination of this Loan Agreement and repayment of the
Loan.
11.42 TAXES, REGULATORY COSTS AND RESERVE PERCENTAGES. Upon Bondowner
Representative’s demand, Borrower shall pay to Bondowner Representative, in addition to all other amounts which
may be, or become, due and payable under this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any and all Taxes
and Regulatory Costs, to the extent they are not internalized by calculation of a One Month LIBO Rate. Further, at
Bondowner Representative’s option, the One Month LIBO Rate shall be automatically adjusted by adjusting the
Reserve Percentage, as determined by Bondowner Representative in its prudent banking judgment, from the date of
imposition (or subsequent date selected by Bondowner Representative) of any such Regulatory Costs. Bondowner
Representative shall give Borrower notice of any Taxes and Regulatory Costs as soon as practicable after their
occurrence, but Borrower shall be liable for any Taxes and Regulatory Costs regardless of whether or when notice is
so given.
11.43 AMENDMENT OF REGULATORY AGREEMENT. Borrower shall not suffer or permit to
become effective any restrictions (including, without limitation, any “automatic” amendment of the Regulatory
Agreement pursuant to its terms) which impose requirements with respect to the occupancy, leasing or operation of
the Project which are materially more burdensome than those contained as of the date of this Loan Agreement in the
Regulatory Agreement, the other Restrictions or any agreement required to be signed in connection with the
extended use agreement to be entered into for the Project with TCAC without first obtaining the consent of
Bondowner Representative to the imposition of such restriction.
11.44 TAX COVENANTS. The Borrower shall comply with the requirements and conditions of the
Tax Certificate and the Regulatory Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Loan Agreement, the Borrower will not take, or permit to be taken on its behalf, any action which
-62-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
would cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes and will take such
reasonable action as may be necessary to continue such exclusion from gross income, including:
(a) the Borrower will not use the proceeds of the Bonds, or any other funds which may be
deemed to be proceeds of the Bonds pursuant to Section 148 of the Code, in the manner which will cause
the Bonds to be “arbitrage bonds” within the meaning of such section, and will comply with the
requirements of such Section throughout the term of the Bonds;
(b) the Borrower will prepare and file any statements required to be filed by it in order to
maintain such exclusion;
(c) the Borrower will pay to the United States any amount required to be paid by the Issuer
or the Borrower pursuant to Section 148(f) of the Code, at the times, in the amounts and at the places
required in order to maintain the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income
tax purposes, and Borrower shall compute, or cause to be computed, such amounts annually until the earlier
of (i) the date required by the Code, or (ii) the date on which no Bonds remain outstanding;
(d) not less than ninety five percent (95%) of the net proceeds of the Bonds (within the
meaning of Section 142(a) of the Code) shall be used to pay Qualified Project Costs;
(e) [Intentionally Omitted]
(f) no changes will be made to the Project, no actions will be taken by the Borrower, and the
Borrower will not omit to take any actions, which will in any way adversely affect the tax exempt status of
the interest on the Bonds;
(g) if the Borrower becomes aware of any circumstance, event or condition which would
result in the interest payable on the Bonds becoming includable in gross income for federal income tax
purposes, the Borrower will promptly give written notice of such circumstance, event or condition to the
Issuer and the Bondowner Representative;
(h) the full amount of each disbursement from the Loan will be applied to pay or to
reimburse the Borrower for the payment of Project Costs and, after taking into account any proposed
disbursement, (i) at least ninety five percent (95%) of the net proceeds of the Bonds (as defined in
Section 150 of the Code) will be used to pay Qualified Project Costs to provide a qualified residential rental
project (as defined in Section 142(d) of the Code), (ii) less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the net
proceeds of the Bonds will have been disbursed to pay or to reimburse the Borrower for the cost of
acquiring land, (iii) not more than two percent (2%) of the proceeds of the Bonds will have been used for
Issuance Costs (as defined in the Indenture), and (iv) none of the proceeds of the Bonds (as defined for
purposes of Section 147(g) of the Code) will be disbursed to provide working capital;
(i) the Borrower will cause all of the residential units in the Project to be rented or available
for rental on a basis which satisfies applicable requirements of the Act, the Code and the Regulatory
Agreement;
(j) all leases for the Project will comply with all applicable laws and, as applicable for units
rented to low and very-low income tenants, the Regulatory Agreement;
(k) in connection with any lease or grant by the Borrower of the use of the Project, the
Borrower will require that the lessee or user of any portion of the Project not use that portion of the Project
in any manner which would violate the covenants set forth in this Loan Agreement or the Regulatory
Agreement;
-63-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
(l) no portion of the proceeds of the portion of the Loan shall be used to provide any
airplane, skybox or other private luxury box, health club facility, facility primarily used for gambling, or
store the principal business of which is the sale of alcoholic beverages for consumption off premises, and
no portion of the proceeds of the Loan shall be used for an office unless (i) the office is located on the
premises of the facilities constituting the Project and (ii) not more than a de minimis amount of the
functions to be performed at such office is not related to the day-to-day operations of the Project; and
(m) no proceeds of the Bonds will be used, for the acquisition of any tangible property or an
interest therein, other than land or an interest in land, unless the first use of such property was pursuant to
such acquisition; provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply with respect to any building (and
the equipment therefor) if construction expenditures (as defined in the Code) with respect to such building
equal or exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the portion of the cost of acquiring such building (and equipment)
financed with proceeds of the Bonds; and provided, further, that this limitation shall not apply with respect
to any structure other than a building if construction expenditures with respect to such structure equal or
exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the portion of the cost of acquiring such structure financed with the
proceeds of the Bonds.
In any matter relating to the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes,
the terms and provisions of the Tax Certificate shall control in the event of any conflict between this Loan
Agreement and the Tax Certificate.
11.45 DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE RATIO.
(a) Borrower anticipates that, for all fiscal years of the Borrower during the Permanent Loan
Term (each, a “Period”), the ratio of Net Income for the Property to Debt Service shall be and remain no
less than 1.05 to 1.00 (“Target DSCR”). Borrower acknowledges that Bondowner Representative is
relying on the Borrower meeting the Target DSCR in making the Loan, and that Bondowner Representative
would not have made the Loan without its reliance upon such anticipated Target DSCR. Notwithstanding
anything set forth herein, the failure of the Borrower to maintain the Target DSCR shall not constitute a
Default under this Loan Agreement.
(b) In addition to the delivery to Bondowner Representative of the financial information
required to be provided under Section 12.1 below, Borrower shall submit annually to Bondowner
Representative, within 120 days of the end of each of Borrower’s fiscal years during the Permanent Loan
Term, a certification by the Borrower of the DSCR for each such fiscal year (the “DSCR Fiscal
Certification”); provided, however, that if Borrower’s first fiscal year of the Permanent Loan Term ends
less than one full year after the Conversion Date, the DSCR Fiscal Certification shall reflect the DSCR for
the period only from the Conversion Date to the end of such first fiscal year. Borrower shall make
available to Bondowner Representative or its designee any financial information reasonably requested by
Bondowner Representative in order for Bondowner Representative to verify and accept Borrower’s DSCR
calculations. If Bondowner Representative does not accept Borrower’s DSCR Fiscal Certification, CCRC
shall provide Borrower its recalculation which shall be binding upon Borrower. If Borrower fails to deliver
to Bondowner Representative (i) the DSCR Fiscal Certification as required by this Section, or (ii) the
financial information required pursuant to Article 12 below, Bondowner Representative shall calculate the
DSCR (the “Bondowner Representative DSCR Determination”) based upon the most recently available
financial information of Borrower, which Bondowner Representative DSCR Determination shall be
binding upon Borrower. If any DSCR Fiscal Certification or Bondowner Representative DSCR
Determination reveals that the DSCR for any Period covered by such DSCR Fiscal Certification is less than
the Target DSCR, then, while not an Event of Default, Bondowner Representative shall notify Limited
Partner (as defined below) and any Subordinate Lender of such fact, and the following shall occur:
(i) Borrower shall provide Bondowner Representative, within thirty (30) days of
Borrower’s delivery of the relevant DSCR Fiscal Certification or Bondowner
Representative’s calculation of the DSCR, as applicable, a written plan
-64-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
reasonably acceptable to Bondowner Representative to bring the Property into
compliance with the Target DSCR. Such plan shall include monthly projections
of Net Income, Debt Service and DSCR until such time as projections show the
Property to be in compliance with the Target DSCR;
(ii) Borrower shall provide Bondowner Representative, for each month of the year
following submittal of the relevant DSCR Fiscal Certification or Bondowner
Representative’s calculation of the DSCR, as applicable (within 25 days of the
end of each month): (x) a certificate disclosing the DSCR for the 12-month
period ending in the relevant month (a “Monthly DSCR Certification”), and
(y) rent rolls and operating statements for the Property, along with a monthly
comparison of actual Net Income, Debt Service and DSCR to projected Net
Income, Debt Service and DSCR reflected in the written plan described above.
Borrower shall also provide a narrative explaining in detail any material
variations between actual and projected Net Income, Debt Service and DSCR.
If Borrower fails to deliver to Bondowner Representative the Monthly DSCR
Certification as provided herein, or if Bondowner Representative’s internal
DSCR calculation is inconsistent with Borrower’s Monthly DSCR Certification,
Bondowner Representative shall calculate the monthly DSCR based upon the
most recently available financial information of Borrower, and such calculation
shall be binding upon Borrower;
(iii) Until such time as the Property is in actual compliance with the Target DSCR,
Borrower shall not make payments or distributions to its partners; but rather,
Borrower shall deposit the amount of any such payments otherwise due (and any
other excess of Net Income over Debt Service) with Bondowner Representative,
to be held as additional collateral by Bondowner Representative in Borrower’s
name as a debt service reserve (the “Debt Service Reserve”). Such deposits by
Borrower shall continue until the earlier of (x) the time at which the balance in
the Debt Service Reserve shall be sufficient, if applied to the Loan, to bring the
Property in compliance with the Target DSCR (assuming the Loan payments are
recast based on the deemed application of such Debt Service Reserve to the
then-current Loan balance and interest rate and its remaining amortization
period and utilizing the Net Income from the latest available audited financial
statements), or (y) the time at which a subsequent Monthly DSCR Certification
shall reveal that the Property is in actual compliance with the Target DSCR.
Monies deposited in the Debt Service Reserve, if invested, shall be invested only
in obligations on which interest is excludable from gross income for federal
income tax purposes.
(iv) Upon the actual compliance of the Property with the Target DSCR, as
determined by a certification of the Borrower of such event and verified by
Bondowner Representative or its designee (not merely upon reduction of the
Loan by the amount retained in any Debt Service Reserve being maintained
because of the failure to meet the Target DSCR), Bondowner Representative
shall release the balance of funds in the Debt Service Reserve retained pursuant
to this Section 11.45(b) to Borrower, and Borrower’s obligations under any
written plan shall terminate.
(c) To the extent Borrower does not comply with any term or condition of subsection (b)
above, then, before any Default shall occur pursuant to Section 13.1 below, Borrower’s limited partner(s)
(collectively, “Limited Partner”) shall receive written notice of Borrower’s failure to comply and Limited
Partner shall have the right, but not the obligation, within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice of
Borrower’s failure to comply, to cure any such failure to comply. Bondowner Representative agrees to
accept any such cure tendered by Limited Partner on behalf of Borrower.

11.46 OPERATING EXPENSES. After the occurrence of a Default, but for the lapse of any applicable
grace period, and notwithstanding such Default shall be or have been cured or waived by Bondowner
Representative, Bondowner Representative shall have the right to require Borrower to deposit with Bondowner
Representative, in monthly installments in advance on the first day of each month, an amount sufficient, as
reasonably estimated by Bondowner Representative, to pay all Operating Expenses for the Property. In such event,
Borrower further agrees, upon Bondowner Representative’s request, to cause all bills, statements or other documents
relating to the operating expenses to be sent or mailed directly to Bondowner Representative. Upon receipt of such
bills, statements or other documents, and provided Borrower has deposited sufficient funds with Bondowner
Representative pursuant to this Section 11.46, Bondowner Representative shall pay such amounts as may be due
thereunder out of the funds so deposited with Bondowner Representative. If at any time and for any reason the
funds deposited with Bondowner Representative are or will be insufficient to pay such Operating Expenses as may
then or subsequently be due, Bondowner Representative may notify Borrower and Borrower shall immediately
deposit an amount equal to the deficiency with Bondowner Representative. If at any time the funds deposited with
Bondowner Representative exceed the amount deemed necessary by Bondowner Representative to pay such
operating expenses as may then or subsequently be due, such excess shall be credited to Borrower on the next
monthly installment or installments of such funds. Upon payment and performance in full of the Loan and all
indebtedness and obligations under the Loan Documents, Bondowner Representative shall promptly refund to
Borrower any such funds held by Bondowner Representative. Nothing herein shall cause Bondowner Representative
to be deemed a trustee of such funds or to be obligated to pay any amounts in excess of the amount of funds
deposited with Bondowner Representative pursuant to this Section 11.46. Bondowner Representative may
commingle such deposits with its own funds and Borrower shall not be entitled to any interest thereon. Borrower
shall execute whatever security agreements, financing statements and other documents and instruments as
Bondowner Representative may require in order to confirm Bondowner Representative’s security interest in and/or
control over such accounts (including, without limitation, the Replacement Reserve and funds deposited therein).
11.47 OPERATING RESERVES. At Conversion, Borrower shall have set aside and shall maintain a
specific operating reserve fund with respect to the Property in an amount not less than __________________ and
No/100 Dollars ($_________.00) (the “Operating Reserve”), which shall be additional collateral for the Loan
during the entire term of the Loan, as follows:
(a) The Operating Reserve shall be maintained by Bondowner Representative in one or more
account(s) in Borrower’s name with one or more of CCRC’s member bank(s). Such account(s) shall
provide expressly that Borrower shall make no withdrawals therefrom without the prior written consent of
CCRC and Investor Limited Partner (to the extent that such consent is required under any documents
executed in connection with the Partnership Documents), which consent from CCRC shall not be
unreasonably withheld.
(b) Borrower shall be entitled to use the Operating Reserve funds only to meet operating
deficits in connection with the management and/or maintenance of the Property. If Borrower shall at any
time draw upon the Operating Reserve to pay such operating deficits, Borrower shall promptly replenish
the Operating Reserve from available cash flow from the Property, and the replenishment of the Operating
Reserve shall be paid prior to the payment of any Borrower or developer fees.
(c) All of Borrower’s interest in the Operating Reserve, any interest accrued or accruing
thereon, and the account(s) in which those funds are held, shall be pledged to Bondowner Representative as
collateral or security for the Loan pursuant to the Deed of Trust and/or any other pledge agreement or other
documentation required by (and acceptable to) Bondowner Representative. If a Default shall occur and be
continuing, Bondowner Representative shall be entitled to draw upon and utilize all or any portion of the
Operating Reserve as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents.
-66-
(d) Initially, the Operating Reserve shall be audited by Bondowner Representative or its
delegee, six (6) months following the Conversion Date, and the Operating Reserve shall be audited by
Bondowner Representative or its delegee annually thereafter to confirm, among other things, that
(i) Borrower has used Operating Reserve funds only for appropriate purposes, and (ii) the Operating
Reserve, as funded, is in compliance with this Section 11.47. Borrower shall cooperate with Bondowner
Representative’s audits of the Operating Reserve.
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
(e) In the event that operating reserves required under the Partnership Agreement or in
connection with any Subordinate Loan are in an amount greater than the Operating Reserve amount
required hereunder, Borrower shall be required to deposit such greater amount directly with Bondowner
Representative.
(f) Upon payment in full of all principal and interest under the Loan and discharge of the

Representative under the Note, this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents immediately due and
payable (in an amount equal to that necessary to pay in full the Bonds and the interest thereon, assuming
-73-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
acceleration of the Bonds under the Indenture and to pay all other indebtedness due under this Loan
Agreement and the other Loan Documents). Upon such acceleration, Bondowner Representative may, in
addition to all other remedies permitted under this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents and at
law or equity, apply any sums in the Account and Borrower’s Funds Account to the sums owing under the
Loan Documents and any and all obligations of Bondowner Representative to consent to further
disbursements under the Loan shall terminate.
(b) Whenever any Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any one or more of the
following remedial steps may also be taken to the extent permitted by law:
(i) the Bondowner Representative, as assignee of the Issuer, may take whatever
action at law or in equity as it determines to be appropriate to collect all sums
then due and thereafter to become due, or to enforce performance and
observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant, representation or warranty
of Borrower, under this Loan Agreement or any other Related Document, or to
foreclose the real property and/or personal property security for such
obligations, or to otherwise compensate the Issuer and the Bondowner
Representative for any damages on account of such Default; and
(ii) the Issuer (without the prior written consent of the Bondowner Representative if
the Bondowner Representative is not enforcing the Issuer’s rights in a manner to
protect the Issuer or is otherwise taking action that brings adverse consequences
to the Issuer), may take whatever action at law or in equity may appear
necessary or appropriate to enforce its rights to indemnification under
Sections 9.6, 11.38, 11.41 and 15.1 and to collect all sums then due and
thereafter to become due to the Issuer under Sections 3.4(b) and (c) and 3.5 of
this Loan Agreement; provided that the Issuer will not take any action which
would prejudice the rights of the Bondowner Representative.
(c) All of Bondowner Representative’s and Issuer’s rights and remedies are cumulative. If
any Default occurs, Issuer’s obligation to lend and Bondowner Representative’s obligation to consent to
disbursements of proceeds of the Loan under the Loan Documents shall automatically terminate, and
Bondowner Representative in its sole discretion may withhold any one or more disbursements. Bondowner
Representative may also withhold any one or more disbursements after an event occurs that, with notice or
the passage of time, could become a Default. No disbursement of Loan funds by Bondowner
Representative will cure any default of Borrower, unless Bondowner Representative agrees otherwise in
writing in each instance.
(d) If Borrower becomes the subject of any Insolvency Proceeding, all of Borrower’s
obligations under the Loan Documents shall automatically become immediately due and payable upon the
filing of the petition commencing such proceeding, all without notice of default, presentment or demand for
payment, protest or notice of nonpayment or dishonor, or other notices or demands of any kind or
character. Upon the occurrence of any other Default, all of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan
Documents may become due and payable immediately without notice of default, presentment or demand
for payment, protest or notice of nonpayment or dishonor or other notices or demands of any kind or
character, all at Bondowner Representative’s option, exercisable in its sole discretion. If such acceleration
occurs, Bondowner Representative may apply any undisbursed Loan funds and any sums in the Borrower’s
Funds Account to Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents, in any order and proportions in
Bondowner Representative’s sole discretion.
Also upon any Default that occurs during the course of rehabilitation of the Project, Bondowner Representative in its
sole discretion may enter and take possession of the Property, whether in person, by agent or by court-appointed
receiver, and take any and all actions that Bondowner Representative in its sole discretion may consider necessary to
complete rehabilitation of the Project, including making changes in plans, specifications, work or materials and
-74-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
entering into, modifying or terminating any contractual arrangements, all subject to Bondowner Representative’s
right at any time to discontinue any work without liability. By choosing to complete the rehabilitation of the Project,
Bondowner Representative does not assume any liability to Borrower or any other person for completing the Project
or for the manner or quality of its construction, and Borrower expressly waives any such liability. If Bondowner
Representative exercises any of the rights or remedies provided in this Section 13.2, that exercise will not make
Bondowner Representative, or cause Bondowner Representative to be deemed, a partner or joint venturer of
Borrower. Bondowner Representative in its sole discretion may choose to complete rehabilitation in its own name.
All sums expended by Bondowner Representative in completing rehabilitation will be considered to have been
disbursed to Borrower and will be secured by the Deed of Trust and any other collateral held by Bondowner
Representative in connection with the Loan; any sums of principal will be considered to be an additional loan to
Borrower bearing interest at the Default Rate, and be secured by the Deed of Trust and any other collateral held by
Bondowner Representative in connection with the Loan. For these purposes Bondowner Representative, in its sole
discretion, may reallocate any line item or cost category of the cost breakdown.
13.3 DISBURSEMENTS TO THIRD PARTIES. Upon the occurrence of a Default occasioned by
Borrower’s failure to pay money to a third party as required by this Loan Agreement, Bondowner Representative
may but shall not be obligated to make such payment from the Loan proceeds, Borrower’s Funds, or other funds of
Bondowner Representative. If such payment is made from proceeds of the Loan or from Borrower’s Funds,
Borrower shall immediately deposit with Bondowner Representative, upon written demand, an amount equal to such
payment. If such payment is made from funds of Bondowner Representative, Borrower shall immediately repay
such funds upon written demand of Bondowner Representative. In either case, the Default with respect to which
any such payment has been made by Bondowner Representative shall not be deemed cured until such deposit or
repayment (as the case may be) has been made by Borrower to Bondowner Representative.
13.4 BONDOWNER REPRESENTATIVE’S COMPLETION OF REHABILITATION. Upon the
occurrence of a Default, Bondowner Representative may, upon five (5) days prior written notice to Borrower, and
with or without legal process, take possession of the Property and Improvements, remove Borrower and all agents,
employees and contractors of Borrower from the Property and Improvements, complete the work of rehabilitation
and market and sell or lease the Property and/or Improvements. For this purpose, Borrower irrevocably appoints
Bondowner Representative as its attorney in fact, which agency is coupled with an interest. As attorney in-fact,
Bondowner Representative may, in Borrower’s name, take or omit to take any action Bondowner Representative
may deem appropriate, including, without limitation, exercising Borrower’s rights under the Loan Documents and
all contracts concerning the Property and/or Improvements.
13.5 BONDOWNER REPRESENTATIVE’S CESSATION OF REHABILITATION. If
Bondowner Representative determines at any time that the Improvements are not being rehabilitated in accordance
with the Plans and Specifications and all governmental requirements, Bondowner Representative may immediately
cause all rehabilitation work to cease on any of the Improvements affected by the condition of nonconformance.
Borrower shall thereafter not allow any construction or rehabilitation work, other than corrective work, to be
performed on any of the Improvements affected by the condition of nonconformance until such time as Bondowner
Representative notifies Borrower in writing that the nonconforming condition has been corrected.
13.6 REPAYMENT OF FUNDS ADVANCED. Any funds expended by Bondowner Representative
in the exercise of its rights or remedies under this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be payable
to Bondowner Representative upon demand, together with interest at the rate applicable to the principal balance of
the Note from the date the funds were expended.
13.7 RIGHTS CUMULATIVE, NO WAIVER. All Bondowner Representative’s rights and remedies
provided in this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with those granted by law or at equity, are
cumulative and may be exercised by Bondowner Representative at any time. Bondowner Representative’s exercise
of any right or remedy shall not constitute a cure of any Default unless all sums then due and payable to Bondowner
Representative under the Loan Documents are repaid and Borrower has cured all other Defaults. No waiver shall be
implied from any failure of Bondowner Representative to take, or any delay by Bondowner Representative in taking,
action concerning any Default or failure of condition under the Loan Documents, or from any previous waiver of
-75-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
any similar or unrelated Default or failure of condition. Any waiver or approval under any of the Loan Documents
must be in writing and shall be limited to its specific terms.
13.8 EXERCISE OF THE ISSUER’S REMEDIES BY BONDOWNER REPRESENTATIVE.
Whenever any default shall have happened and be subsisting the Bondowner Representative may, but except as
otherwise provided in the Indenture shall not be obligated to, exercise any or all of the rights of the Issuer under this
Article 13, with notice to the Issuer.
13.9 RIGHTS OF INVESTOR LIMITED PARTNER. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, any cure of any Default made or tendered by the Investor Limited Partner shall be deemed to be a cure by
Borrower and shall be accepted or rejected on the same basis as if made or tendered by Borrower; provided,
however, if in order to cure such default, the Investor Limited Partner reasonably believes that it must remove the
general partner of Borrower pursuant to the Partnership Agreement and the Investor Limited Partner notifies
Bondowner Representative of such removal, so long as the Investor Limited Partner is diligently attempting to
remove the general partner, the Investor Limited Partner shall have until the date thirty (30) days after the effective
date of the removal of the member, or such longer period as provided herein, to cure such Default or alleged Default.
13.10 NONEXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Issuer or
the Bondowner Representative is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and
every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Loan
Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay or omission to exercise any right
or power accruing upon any Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver
thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.
In order to entitle the Bondowner Representative to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this Article, it shall not be
necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may be herein expressly required or as may be required by
law.
13.11 EFFECT OF WAIVER. In the event any agreement contained in this Loan Agreement is
breached by either party and thereafter such breach is waived by the other party, such waiver shall be limited to the
particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach hereunder.
13.12 BONDOWNER REPRESENTATIVE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM. In case of the
pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment,
composition or other judicial proceeding relative to Borrower or the property of Borrower, the Bondowner
Representative (with the prior consent of the Bondowner Representative), shall be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a) To file and prove a claim and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary
or advisable in order to have the claims of the Issuer and the Bondowner Representative (including any
claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Issuer and Bondowner
Representative, their agents and counsel) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b) To collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such
claims, and to distribute the same.
13.13 RESTORATION OF POSITIONS. If the Bondowner Representative has instituted any
proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Loan Agreement, and such proceeding has been discontinued
or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Bondowner Representative, then and in every
such case Borrower, the Bondowner Representative shall, subject to any determination in the proceeding, be
restored to the positions they held prior to commencement of such proceedings, and thereafter all rights and
remedies of the Issuer and the Bondowner Representative shall continue as though no such proceeding had been
instituted.

13.14 SUITS TO PROTECT THE PROJECT. If Borrower shall fail to do so after 30 days prior
written notice from the Bondowner Representative, the Bondowner Representative shall have power to institute and
to maintain such proceedings as either of them may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Project or any
portion thereof, by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of this Loan Agreement, and such suits and
proceedings as the Bondowner Representative may deem expedient to protect its interests in the Project or any
portion thereof, including power to institute and maintain proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance
with any governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the enforcement
of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair or adversely affect the Project or be prejudicial
to the interests of the Bondowner Representative.

Loan No. 1005254
Documents; and (b) Borrower deposits with Bondowner Representative any funds or other forms of assurance which
Bondowner Representative in good faith determines from time to time appropriate to protect Bondowner
Representative from the consequences of the contest being unsuccessful. Borrower’s compliance with this
Section shall operate to prevent such claim, demand, levy or assessment from becoming a Default.
15.8 RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES. The relationship of Borrower and Bondowner Representative
under the Loan Documents is, and shall at all times remain, solely that of borrower and representative of the
Bondowners, and Bondowner Representative neither undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrower

Representative shall not be liable in any way to Borrower or any third party for Bondowner Representative’s failure
to perform or delay in performing under the Loan Documents (and Bondowner Representative may suspend or
terminate all or any portion of Bondowner Representative’s obligations under the Loan Documents) if such failure

(whether presently in effect, announced or in the sole judgment of Bondowner Representative deemed probable), or
from any Act of God or other cause or event beyond Bondowner Representative’s control.
15.10 ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND EXPENSES; ENFORCEMENT. If any attorney is engaged by

given the specific facts and circumstance applicable at the time.

acknowledges that Bondowner Representative may elect, at any time, subject to the requirements of the Indenture, to

documents and information (including, without limitation, all financial information) which has been or is hereafter
provided to or known to Bondowner Representative with respect to: (a) the Property and Improvements and its

Borrower, any constituent partner or member of Borrower, any Guarantor, any Indemnitor and any Non-Borrower
Trustor); and/or (c) any lending relationship other than the Loan which Bondowner Representative may have with

any party connected with the Loan. In the event of any such sale, assignment or participation, Bondowner
Representative and the parties to such transaction shall share in the rights and obligations of Bondowner
Representative as set forth in the Loan Documents only as and to the extent they agree among themselves. In
connection with any such sale, assignment or participation, Borrower further agrees that the Loan Documents shall
be sufficient evidence of the obligations of Borrower to each purchaser, assignee, or participant, and upon written
request by Bondowner Representative, Borrower shall enter into such amendments or modifications to the Loan
Documents as may be reasonably required in order to evidence any such sale, assignment or participation. The
indemnity obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents shall also apply with respect to any purchaser,
assignee or participant.
15.15 FANNIE MAE REQUIREMENTS. Borrower agrees to execute such additional documents
(which documents shall be considered “Loan Documents”) as Bondowner Representative may reasonably request to
facilitate the sale of the Bonds at any time to, or a credit enhancement facility with, Fannie Mae or another purchaser
of loans or credit enhancement provider in the secondary market which generally follows Fannie Mae standards. If,
prior to the Conversion Date, there are any modifications in or additions to any of the requirements imposed or
standards used by Fannie Mae in connection with loans purchased by it or by others purchasing loans on the
secondary market, or in connection with credit enhancement facilities provided by it or other credit enhancement
providers on the secondary market, and generally following Fannie Mae standards, then effective as of the

15.20 SEVERABILITY. If any provision or obligation under this Loan Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that
provision shall be deemed severed from the Loan Documents and the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions or obligations shall remain in full force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable
provision had never been a part of the Loan Documents, provided, however, that if the rate of interest or any other
amount payable under the Note or this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the right of collectibility
therefor, are declared to be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable, Bondowner Representative’s obligations to
make advances under the Loan Documents shall not be enforceable by Borrower.

any delay or failure by Bondowner Representative or Issuer to take action on account of any default of Borrower or
to exercise any right or remedy against Borrower or any security. Consent by Bondowner Representative or Issuer
to any act or omission by Borrower may not be construed as a consent to any other or subsequent act or omission or
as a waiver of the requirement for Bondowner Representative’s consent to be obtained in any future or other
instance. All of Bondowner Representative’s rights and remedies are cumulative.
15.30 AMENDMENTS, CHANGES AND MODIFICATIONS. Except as otherwise provided in this
Loan Agreement or in the Indenture, subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds and before the lien of the Indenture is
satisfied and discharged in accordance with its terms, this Loan Agreement may not be effectively amended,

(and the Issuer to the extent any proposed amendment, change or modification relates to any rights reserved by the
Issuer under the Indenture).
15.31 LIMITATION ON ISSUER’S LIABILITY. The Issuer shall not be obligated to pay the
principal (or redemption price) of or interest on the Bonds, except from Revenues and other moneys and assets
received by the Bondowner Representative on behalf of the Issuer pursuant to this Loan Agreement. Neither the
faith and credit nor the taxing power of the State or any political subdivision thereof, nor the faith and credit of the
Issuer or any member is pledged to the payment of the principal (or redemption price) or interest on the Bonds. The
Issuer shall not be liable for any costs, expenses, losses, damages, claims or actions, of any conceivable kind on any
conceivable theory, under or by reason of or in connection with this Loan Agreement, the Bonds or the Indenture,
except only to the extent amounts are received for the payment thereof from the Borrower under this Loan
Agreement.
The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the Issuer’s sole source of moneys to repay the Bonds will be provided by
payments made by the Borrower pursuant to this Loan Agreement and the receipt of other Revenues, together with
investment income on certain funds and accounts held by the Bondowner Representative under the Indenture, and
hereby agrees that if the payments to be made hereunder shall ever prove insufficient to pay all principal (or
redemption price) and interest on the Bonds as the same shall become due (whether by maturity, redemption,
acceleration or otherwise), then upon notice from the Bondowner Representative, the Borrower shall pay such
amounts as are required from time to time to prevent any deficiency or default in the payment of such principal (or
redemption price) or interest, including, but not limited to, any deficiency caused by acts, omissions, nonfeasance or
malfeasance on the part of the Bondowner Representative, the Borrower, the Issuer or any third party, subject to any
right of reimbursement from the Bondowner Representative, the Issuer or any such third party, as the case may be,
therefor.
15.32 PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF BONDOWNER REPRESENTATIVE APPROVAL.
Bondowner Representative’s approval of any matter in connection with the Loan is for the sole purpose of
protecting the security and rights of the Bondowner Representative. No such approval will result in a waiver of any
default of Borrower. In no event may Bondowner Representative’s approval be a representation of any kind with
regard to the matter being approved.
15.33 NO COMMITMENT TO INCREASE LOAN. From time to time, Bondowner Representative
may approve changes to the Plans and Specifications at Borrower’s request and also require Borrower to make
corrections to the work of rehabilitation, all on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Loan Agreement.
Borrower acknowledges that no such action or other action by Bondowner Representative will in any manner
commit or obligate the Issuer or Bondowner Representative to increase the amount of the Loan.

15.34 RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER BONDOWNER REPRESENTATIVE CUSTOMERS.
From time to time, Bondowner Representative may have business relationships with Borrower’s customers,
suppliers, contractors, tenants, partners, shareholders, officers or directors, or with businesses offering products or
services similar to those of Borrower, or with persons seeking to invest in, borrow from or lend to Borrower.
Borrower agrees that Bondowner Representative may extend credit to such parties and take any action it deems
necessary to collect the credit, regardless of the effect that such extension or collection of credit may have on
Borrower’s financial condition or operations. Borrower further agrees that in no event will Bondowner
Representative be obligated to disclose to Borrower any information concerning any other Bondowner
Representative customer.
15.35 DISCLOSURE TO TITLE COMPANY. Without notice to or the consent of Borrower,
Bondowner Representative may disclose to any title insurance company insuring any interest of Bondowner

material in Bondowner Representative’s possession relating to Borrower, the Loan, the Project or the Property.
15.36 RESTRICTION ON PERSONAL PROPERTY. Except for the replacement of personal
property made in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business with items of equal or greater value, Borrower may not

15.38 COMPLIANCE WITH USURY LAWS. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan
Agreement, it is agreed and understood that in no event shall this Loan Agreement, with respect to the Note or other

considerations that constitute interest under any applicable law which are contracted for, charged or received
pursuant to this Loan Agreement in an amount in excess of the maximum amount of interest allowed under any
applicable law. In the event of any acceleration of the payment of the principal amount of the Note or other

amounts owing under this Loan Agreement and the Note or for the performance of any other obligations of
the Borrower under this Loan Agreement, the Note, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents
(collectively, the “Obligations”), and the only recourse for the satisfaction and the performance of the
Obligations shall be the exercise of rights and remedies with respect to the Property and the Improvements
and any other collateral which is security for the Obligations. This limitation on the Borrower’s and any

(b) Exceptions to Non-Recourse. The Borrower and any general partner of Borrower (each
individually, or on a joint and several basis if more than one) shall be personally liable in the amount of any
loss, damage or cost (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from one or more of
the following: (i) fraud or written material misrepresentation by Borrower or its agents or employees, or
Borrower’s partner or its agents or employees, in connection with obtaining the loan evidenced by this
Note, or in complying with any of Borrower’s obligations under the Bond Documents and the Loan
Documents; (ii) Borrower’s failure to pay (beyond any applicable notice and cure periods) any and all
insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, damage proceeds, security deposits received from tenants or
other sums or payments received by or on behalf of Borrower in its capacity as owner of the Property and
not applied in accordance with the provisions of the Deed of Trust and the Loan Documents (except to the
extent that Borrower did not have the legal right because of a bankruptcy, receivership or similar judicial
proceeding, to direct disbursement of such sums or payments); (iii) Borrower’s failure to pay all Payments
(as defined in the Deed of Trust) actually received by Borrower not applied to the payment of the
reasonable operating expenses of the Project as set forth herein and then to the payment of principal and
interest then due and owing under this Note and any other amounts arising or due and owing under the

legal right because of a bankruptcy, receivership or similar judicial proceeding to direct the disbursement of
such sums), books and records relating to the Project; (v) commission of material waste by Borrower (or
any general partner, officer, director or agent of Borrower or any guarantor or owner of any collateral as
described in the Deed of Trust or the Loan Documents); provided, however, that failure of Borrower to
restore or repair the Project after damage or destruction to them shall not be material waste,
notwithstanding the availability of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards in connection therewith;
and (vi) the presence or release of any “Hazardous Materials” on, in or under the Project.
(c) Waiver of Personal Liability of the Issuer. No member, officer, agent or employee of the
Issuer or any of its program participants shall be individually or personally liable for the payment of any
principal (or redemption price) or interest on the Bonds or any other sum hereunder or be subject to any
personal liability or accountability by reason of the execution and delivery of this Loan Agreement; but
nothing herein contained shall relieve any such member, officer, agent or employee from the performance
of any official duty provided by law or by this Loan Agreement.
To the extent that the Borrower and/or any general partner of Borrower has personal liability under this
Section 15.40, Bondowner Representative may exercise its rights against the Borrower and/or any general partner of
Borrower personally without regard to whether Bondowner Representative has exercised any rights against the
Property or any other security, or pursued any rights against any guarantor, or pursued any other rights available to
Bondowner Representative under this Loan Agreement, the Note, the Deed of Trust, or applicable law. For purposes
of this Section 15.40, the term “Subject Property” shall not include any funds that (a) have been applied by the
Borrower as required or permitted by the Deed of Trust prior to the occurrence of a Default, or (b) the Borrower was
unable to apply as required or permitted by the Deed of Trust because of a bankruptcy, receivership, or similar
judicial proceeding.
15.41 REMOVAL OF GENERAL PARTNER. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
the Loan Agreement, the replacement of any General Partner for cause in accordance with the Borrower’s
Partnership Agreement shall not constitute a default under any of the Loan Documents or accelerate the maturity of
the Loan; provided, however, such substitute General Partner must be reasonably satisfactory to and approved in
writing by Bondowner Representative. Such acceptable substitute General Partner is to be selected no later than
thirty (30) days and admitted no later than sixty (60) days after the date of the removal of the General Partner.
Further, any removal and replacement of any General Partner not in accordance with the Partnership Agreement
shall require the prior written consent of Bondowner Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably
-84-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254

Partner under all of the Loan Documents, pursuant to an assumption agreement in the form provided by Bondowner
Representative.
15.42 TRANSFER OF LIMITED PARTNER INTERESTS. The interests of the Investor Limited
Partner shall be transferable to a Permitted Transferee and such transfer shall not constitute a Default under any of
the Loan Documents.
15.43 PURCHASE OPTION/RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in the Loan Documents, the execution and delivery of a purchase option agreement between
Borrower and the General Partner or an affiliate thereof shall not constitute a default under the Loan Documents or

consent to the exercise of such purchase option or right of first refusal, (b) the purchase option or right of first
refusal is subordinated to the Loan, and (c) upon the exercise of such purchase option or first refusal right by the
optionee thereunder, the optionee assumes all of the obligations of Borrower with respect to the Loan, at which time
Borrower may be released from its obligations with respect to the Loan.
15.44 EXTENDED USE AGREEMENT. Upon Conversion, Bondowner Representative
acknowledges that Borrower and the State of California, acting through TCAC intend to enter into an extended use
agreement, which constitutes the extended low-income housing commitment described in Section 42(h)(6)(B) of the
Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”). As of the date hereof, Code Section 42(h)(6)(E)(ii) does not
permit the eviction or termination of tenancy (other than for good cause) of an existing tenant of any low-income
unit or any increase in the gross rent with respect to such unit not otherwise permitted under Code Section 42 for a
period of three (3) years after the date the building is acquired by foreclosure or by instrument in lieu of foreclosure.
In the event the extended use agreement required by the Credit Agency is recorded against the Property, Bondowner
Representative agrees to comply with the provisions set forth in Code Section 42(h)(6)(E)(ii) or any successor
statute.
15.45 AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. Borrower shall not discriminate in its employment practices against
any employee or applicant for employment because of the applicant’s race, creed, religion, national origin or
ancestry, sex, age, sexual orientation or preference, marital status, color, physical disability, familial status and
disability, mental conditions or medical conditions, including pregnancy, childbirth or related condition.
15.46 JUDICIAL REFERENCE.
(a) The parties hereto agree that any and all disputes, claims and controversies arising out of
the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, actions arising
in contract or tort and any claims by a party against Bondowner Representative and/or the Issuer related in
any way to the Bonds or the transactions contemplated hereunder) (a “Dispute”) that are brought before a
forum in which the pre-dispute waivers of the right to trial by jury set forth in Section 15.19 above are
invalid under applicable law shall be subject to the terms of this Section 15.46 in lieu of the jury trial
waivers set forth in Section 15.19 or as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents.
(b) Any and all such Disputes shall be heard by a referee and resolved by judicial reference
pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure § 638 et seq. The parties shall use their respective
commercially reasonable and good faith efforts to agree upon and select such referee, who shall be a retired
California state or federal judge, provided, however, that the parties shall not appoint a referee that may be
disqualified pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure § 641 or § 641.2 without the prior written
consent of all the parties. If the parties are unable to agree upon a referee within ten (10) calendar days
after a party serves written notice of intent for judicial reference upon the other party or parties, then the
referee shall be selected by the court in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure § 640(b). The
referee shall render a written statement of decision and shall conduct the proceedings in accordance with
the California Code of Civil Procedure, the Rules of Court and the California Evidence Code, except as
otherwise specifically agreed by the parties and approved by the referee. The referee’s statement of
-85-
23334304
Loan No. 1005254
decision shall set forth findings of fact and conclusions of law. The referee’s decision shall be entered as a
judgment in the court in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 644-645.
The decision of the referee shall be appealable to the same extent and in the same manner that such
decision would be appealable if rendered by a judge of the superior court.
(c) If a Dispute includes multiple claims, some of which are found not subject to this Loan
Agreement, the parties shall stay the proceedings of the Disputes or part or parts thereof not subject to this
Loan Agreement until all other Disputes or parts thereof are resolved in accordance with this Loan
Agreement. If there are Disputes by or against multiple parties, some of which are not subject to this Loan
Agreement, the parties shall sever the Disputes subject to this Loan Agreement and resolve them in
accordance with this Loan Agreement.
(d) Nothing in this Section 15.46 shall be deemed to apply to or limit the rights of
Bondowner Representative and/or Issuer (i) to exercise self help remedies, including, without limitation,
setoff, or (ii) to foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any real or personal property collateral, or to
exercise judicial or nonjudicial power of sale rights, or (iii) to obtain from a court provisional or ancillary
remedies, including, without limitation, injunctive relief, writ(s) of possession, prejudgment attachment,
protective order(s) or the appointment of a receiver, or (iv) to pursue rights against a party in a third-party
proceeding in any action brought against Bondowner Representative and/or Issuer, including, without
limitation, actions in bankruptcy court. Bondowner Representative and/or Issuer may exercise the
foregoing rights before, during or after the pendency of any judicial reference proceeding. The failure to
exercise any of the foregoing remedies shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including,
without limitation, the claimant in any such action, to require submission to judicial reference the merits of
the Dispute giving rise to such remedies. No provision in the Loan Documents regarding submission to
jurisdiction and/or venue in any court is intended or shall be construed to be in derogation of the provisions
in this Section for judicial reference of any Dispute.
(e) During the pendency of any Dispute which is submitted to judicial reference in
accordance with this Section, each of the parties to such Dispute shall bear equal share of the fees charged
and costs incurred by the referee in performing the services described herein. The compensation of the
referee shall not exceed the prevailing rate for like services. The prevailing party shall be entitled to
reasonable court costs and legal fees, including customary attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees, the fees of
the referee and other reasonable costs and disbursements charged to the party by its counsel, in such
amounts as determined by the referee.
(f) Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section constitute a
material inducement to enter into this Loan Agreement, the Loan Documents and to consummate the
transactions contemplated thereunder, and that the parties will continue to be bound by and rely on such
provisions in the course of their dealings with regard to any Dispute governed by the provisions of this
Section. Each party hereto further warrants and represents that it has reviewed these provisions with legal
counsel of its own choosing, or has had the opportunity to do so, and that it knowingly and voluntarily
agrees to abide by the provisions of this Section having had the opportunity to consult with legal counsel.
(g) THIS SECTION CONSTITUTES A “REFERENCE AGREEMENT” BETWEEN OR
AMONG THE PARTIES WITHIN THE MEANING OF AND FOR THE PURPOSES OF CALIFORNIA
CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE § 638. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS LOAN AGREEMENT
MAY BE FILED AS EVIDENCE OF EITHER OR ALL PARTIES’ CONSENT AND AGREEMENT TO
HAVE ANY AND ALL DISPUTES HEARD AND DETERMINED BY A REFEREE UNDER
CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE § 638. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT
JUDICIAL REFERENCE PROCEEDINGS CONDUCTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION
WOULD BE CONDUCTED BY A PRIVATE REFEREE ONLY, SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

and the applicable Regulations.

The Issuer hereby elects to have the Development meet the requirements of Section
142(d)(1)(B) of the Code.
Section 4. Low Income Tenants; Reporting Requirements . Pursuant to the
requirements of the Code, the Borrower hereby represents, warrants and covenants as follows:
(a) During the Qualified Development Period, not less than forty percent (40%)
of the units in the Development will be occupied by, or held vacant and available for
occupancy by, Low Income Tenants. For the purposes of this paragraph (a), a vacant
unit which was most recently occupied by a Low Income Tenant is treated as rented
and occupied by a Low Income Tenant until reoccupied, other than for a temporary
period of not more than 31 days, at which time the character of such unit shall be
redetermined.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(a), the Borrower shall
not be in default under such requirements so long as (i) the Borrower uses its best
efforts to comply with such requirements as soon as practicable following the Closing
Date, and (ii) any unit in the Development which becomes available for rental following
the Closing Date is rented to a Low Income Tenant as necessary to satisfy the
requirements of Section 4(a). In no event, however, shall the Borrower fail to comply
with the foregoing provisions of this Sections 4(a) of this Regulatory Agreement by
September 1, 2012.
(b) No tenant qualifying as a Low Income Tenant shall be denied continued
occupancy of a unit in the Development because, after admission, such tenant’s
Adjusted Income increases to exceed the qualifying limit for Low Income Tenants.
However, should a Low Income Tenant’s Adjusted Income, as of the most recent
determination thereof, exceed one hundred forty percent (140%) of the applicable
income limit for a Low Income Tenant of the same family size, the next available unit
of comparable or smaller size in the Development must be rented to (or held vacant
and available for immediate occupancy by) a Low Income Tenant. Until such next
available unit is rented to a Low Income Tenant, the former Low Income Tenant who
has ceased to qualify as such shall be deemed to continue to be a Low Income Tenant
for purposes of the Low Income Unit requirements of Section 4(a) hereof (but shall not
be so deemed to continue to be a Low Income Tenant upon the rental of an available
unit of comparable or smaller size to a tenant who is not a Low Income Tenant).
(c) For the Qualified Development Period, the Borrower will obtain, complete,
and maintain on file Verification of Income certifications for each Low Income Tenant,
including (i) a Verification of Income dated immediately prior to the initial occupancy
of such Low Income Tenant in the Development, and (ii) thereafter, an annual
Verification of Income with respect to each Low Income Tenant within thirty days
before or after the anniversary of such tenant’s initial occupancy of a unit in the
Development. In lieu of obtaining an annual Verification of Income, the Borrower may,
with respect to any particular twelve-month period ending September 1 of each year,
deliver to the Administrator no later than fifteen (15) days after such date, a
certification that as of September 1, no unit in the Development was occupied within
the preceding twelve (12) months by a new resident whose income exceeded the limit
applicable to Low Income Tenants upon admission to the Development. The
Administrator may at any time and in its sole and absolute discretion notify the
Borrower in writing that it will no longer accept certifications of the Borrower made
pursuant to the preceding sentence and that the Borrower will thereafter be required to
obtain annual Verifications of Income for tenants.
-10-
The Borrower also will provide such additional information as may be required
in the future by the State of California, by the Issuer, by CDLAC and by the Code, as
the same may be amended from time to time, or in such other form and manner as may
be required by applicable rules, rulings, policies, procedures, Regulations or other
official statements now or hereafter promulgated, proposed or made by the
Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service with respect to Tax-Exempt
obligations. Upon request of the Administrator or the Issuer, copies of Verification of
Income for Low Income Tenants commencing or continuing occupation of a Low
Income Unit shall be submitted to the Administrator or the Issuer, as requested.
The Borrower shall make a good faith effort to verify that the income
information provided by an applicant in a Verification of Income is accurate by taking
one or more of the following steps as a part of the verification process: (1) obtain a pay
stub for the most recent pay period, (2) obtain an income tax return for the most recent
tax year, (3) obtain a credit report or conduct a similar type credit search, (4) obtain an
income verification from the applicant’s current employer, (5) obtain an income
verification from the Social Security Administration and/or the California Department
of Social Services if the applicant receives assistance from either of such agencies, or (6)
if the applicant is unemployed and does not have an income tax return, obtain another
form of independent verification reasonably acceptable to the Issuer.
(d) The Borrower will maintain complete and accurate records pertaining to the
Low Income Units and will permit any duly authorized representative of the Issuer, the
Administrator, the Bondowner Representative, the Department of the Treasury or the
Internal Revenue Service to inspect the books and records of the Borrower pertaining to
the Development, including those records pertaining to the occupancy of the Low
Income Units.
(e) The Borrower will prepare and submit quarterly, on or before each April 15
(for the quarterly period ending March 30), July 15 (for the quarterly period ending June
30), October 15 (for the quarterly period ending September 30) and January 15 (for the
quarterly period ending December 31) during the Qualified Development Period rent
rolls and other information required by the Focus Program, along with, to the
Administrator and the Bondowner Representative, a Certificate of Continuing Program
Compliance executed by the Borrower stating (i) the percentage of the aggregate of the
dwelling units of the Development which were occupied or deemed occupied, pursuant
to subsection (a) hereof, by Low Income Tenants during the preceding year; and (ii)
that either (A) no unremedied default has occurred under this Regulatory Agreement,
or (B) a default has occurred, in which event the certificate shall describe the nature of
the default in detail and set forth the measures being taken by the Borrower to remedy
such default.
During the Qualified Development Period, the Borrower shall submit a
completed Internal Revenue Code Form 8703 or such other annual certification as
required by the Code with respect to the Development, to the Secretary of the Treasury
on or before March 31 of each year (or such other date as may be required by the Code).
(f) For the Qualified Development Period, all tenant leases or rental agreements
shall be subordinate to this Regulatory Agreement. All leases pertaining to Low
Income Units shall contain clauses, among others, wherein each tenant who occupies a
Low Income Unit: (i) certifies the accuracy of the statements made in the Verification of
Income; (ii) agrees that the family income and other eligibility requirements shall be
deemed substantial and material obligations of the tenancy of such tenant, that such
tenant will comply promptly with all requests for information with respect thereto from
-11-
the Borrower, the Bondowner Representative or the Administrator on behalf of the
Issuer, and that the failure to provide accurate information in the Verification of
Income or refusal to comply with a request for information with respect thereto shall be
deemed a violation of a substantial obligation of the tenancy of such tenant; (iii)
acknowledges that the Borrower has relied on the Verification of Income and
supporting information supplied by the Low Income Tenant in determining
qualification for occupancy of the Low Income Unit and that any material
misstatement in such certification (whether or not intentional) will be cause for
immediate termination of such lease or rental agreement; and (iv) agrees that the
tenant’s income is subject to annual certification in accordance with Section 4(c) hereof
and that if upon any such certification such tenant’s Adjusted Income exceeds the
applicable Low Income Tenant income limit under Section 4(b), such tenant may cease
to qualify as a Low Income Tenant, and such tenant’s rent is subject to increase.

by the Issuer to deliver to such Administrator, in addition to or instead of the Issuer,
any reports, notices or other documents required to be delivered pursuant hereto, and
to make the Development and the books and records with respect thereto available for

any way necessary to insure that such policies comply with the provisions of this
Agreement and the requirements of the existing program under Section 8 of the
Housing Act, or its successors. The Borrower shall not promulgate management
policies which conflict with the provisions of the addendum to the form of lease for the
Development prepared by the Housing Authority of Contra Costa County, and shall
attach such addendum to leases for tenants which are holders of Section 8 certificates.

California or federal law.
(p) The requirements of Section 6 and this Section 4A shall be in effect for
the Qualified Development Period.
Any of the foregoing requirements of the Issuer contained in this Section 4A may be
expressly waived by the Issuer in writing, but (i) no waiver by the Issuer of any requirement of
this Section 4A shall, or shall be deemed to, extend to or affect any other provision of this
Regulatory Agreement except to the extent the Issuer has received an opinion of Bond Counsel
that any such provision is not required by the Housing Act and may be waived without
adversely affecting the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds for federal income
tax purposes; and (ii) any requirement of this Section 4A shall be void and of no force and
effect if the Issuer and the Borrower receive a written opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that
compliance with any such requirement would cause interest on the Bonds to cease to be Tax-
Exempt or to the effect that compliance with such requirement would be in conflict with the
Housing Act or any other State or federal law.
Section 5. Tax-Exempt Status of the Bonds . The Borrower and the Issuer, as
applicable, each hereby represents, warrants and agrees as follows:
(a) The Borrower and the Issuer will not knowingly take or permit, or omit to
take or cause to be taken, as is appropriate, any action that would adversely affect the
Tax-Exempt nature of the interest on the Bonds and, if either of them should take or
permit, or omit to take or cause to be taken, any such action, it will take all lawful
actions necessary to rescind or correct such actions or omissions promptly upon
obtaining knowledge thereof.
(b) The Borrower and the Issuer will file of record such documents and take
such other steps as are necessary, in the written opinion of Bond Counsel filed with the
Borrower, the Issuer and the Bondowner Representative, in order to insure that the
requirements and restrictions of this Regulatory Agreement will be binding upon all
owners of the Development, including, but not limited to, the execution and recordation
of this Regulatory Agreement in the real property records of the County.
Section 6. Additional Requirements of the Housing Act. In addition to the
requirements set forth elsewhere in this Regulatory Agreement, so long as the Bonds are
outstanding the Borrower hereby agrees to comply with each of the requirements of the
Housing Act applicable to the Development. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower
agrees as follows:
(a) As provided in Section 52080(a)(1)(B) of the Housing Act, forty percent
(40%) or more of the aggregate of the completed residential units in the Development
shall be occupied by, or held vacant and available for occupancy by, lower income
tenants within the meaning of Section 52080(a)(1) of the Housing Act (it being
acknowledged that units required to be set aside for Low Income Tenants pursuant to
-14-
Section 4(a) may be counted for purposes of satisfying the requirements of this Section
6(a) if the related Low Income Tenants otherwise satisfy the requirements of this
Section 6(a)).
(b) The rental payments paid by the occupants of the units described in
paragraph (a) of this Section (excluding any supplemental rental assistance from the
state, the federal government, or any other public agency to those occupants or on
behalf of those units) shall not exceed thirty percent of sixty percent (60%) of area
median income.
(c) The Borrower shall accept as tenants, on the same basis as all other
prospective tenants, Low Income Tenants who are recipients of federal certificates or
vouchers for rent subsidies pursuant to the existing program under Section 8 of the
Housing Law. The selection criteria applied to certificate holders under Section 8 of the
Housing Law shall not be more burdensome than the criteria applied to all other
prospective tenants.
(d) The Borrower shall ensure that units occupied as required by paragraph (a)
of this Section are of comparable quality and offer a range of sizes and number of
bedrooms comparable to those units which are available to other tenants.
(e) As provided in Section 52080(e) of the Housing Act, the Development may
be syndicated after prior written approval of the Issuer. The Issuer shall grant that
approval only after it determines that the terms and conditions of the syndication (1)
shall not reduce or limit any of the requirements of the Housing Act or regulations
adopted or documents executed pursuant to the Housing Act, (2) shall not cause any
of the requirements in this Agreement to be subordinated to the syndication agreement,
or (3) shall not result in the provision of fewer assisted units, or the reduction of any
benefits or services, than were in existence prior to the syndication agreement. The
Issuer hereby acknowledges that this Section 6(e) does not apply to the syndication of
federal tax credits for the Development as contemplated by the Borrower’s partnership
agreement.
(f) Following the expiration or termination of the Qualified Development
Period, except in the event of foreclosure and redemption of the Bonds, deed in lieu of
foreclosure, eminent domain, or action of a federal agency preventing enforcement,
units required to be reserved for occupancy pursuant to Section 6(a) shall remain
available to any eligible household occupying a reserved unit at the date of such
expiration or termination, at a rent not greater than the amount required by Section
6(b), until the earliest of any of the following occur:
(1) The household’s income exceeds one hundred-forty percent
(140%) of the maximum eligible income specified in Section 6(a).
(2) The household voluntarily moves or is evicted for “good cause.”
“Good cause” for the purposes of this section means the nonpayment of rent or
allegation of facts necessary to prove major, or repeated minor, violations of
material provisions of the occupancy agreement which detrimentally affect the
health, safety, occupancy or quiet enjoyment of other persons or the structure,
the fiscal integrity of the Development, or the purposes or special programs of
the Development.
(3) Thirty years after the date of commencement of the Qualified
Development Period.
-15-
(4) The Borrower pays the relocation assistance and benefits to
tenants as provided in subdivision (b) of Section 7264 of the Government Code.
(g) Except in the event of foreclosure and redemption of the Bonds, deed in
lieu of foreclosure, eminent domain, or action of a federal agency preventing
enforcement, during the three years prior to expiration of the Qualified Development
Period, the Borrower shall continue to make available to eligible households reserved
units that have been vacated to the same extent that nonreserved units are made
available to noneligible households.
(h) This Section shall not be construed to require the Issuer to monitor the
Borrower’s compliance with the provisions of paragraph (f), or that the Issuer shall
have any liability whatsoever in the event of the failure by the Borrower to comply with
any of the provisions of this Agreement.
(i) The covenants and conditions of this Regulatory Agreement shall be
binding upon successors in interest of the Borrower.
(j) This Regulatory Agreement shall be recorded in the office of the county
recorder of the County, and shall be recorded in the grantor-grantee index to the names
of the Borrower as grantor and to the name of the Issuer as grantee.
Section 7. CDLAC Requirements. The acquisition, rehabilitation and operation of the
Development and the financing thereof are and shall be in compliance with the conditions set
forth in Exhibit A to the CDLAC Resolution (the “CDLAC Conditions”), as it may be
amended, which conditions are incorporated herein by reference and are made a part hereof;
provided, however, the Issuer shall have no obligation under this Regulatory Agreement to
monitor and enforce the Borrower’s compliance with the CDLAC Conditions. The Borrower
shall prepare and submit to CDLAC, at the times required by CDLAC, a Certificate of
Compliance in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B hereto (or in such other form
as CDLAC may require), executed by an authorized representative of the Borrower.
The Borrower acknowledges that the CDLAC Conditions include the following:
(a) 69 of the units in the Development be restricted for a term of 55 years,
including 36 units rented or held vacant for rental for persons or families whose income
is at 50% or below of the Area Median Gross Income and 33 units rented or held vacant
for rental for persons or families whose income is at 60% or below of the Area Median
Gross Income.
(b) The Development will utilize Gross Rents as defined in Section 5170 of
CDLAC’s regulations.
(c) A minimum of $10,000 in hard construction costs will be for each
Development unit.
Section 8. Modification of Covenants . The Borrower and the Issuer hereby agree as
follows:
(a) To the extent any amendments to the Housing Act, the Regulations or the
Code shall, in the written opinion of Bond Counsel filed with the Issuer, the Bondowner
Representative and the Borrower, impose requirements upon the ownership or
operation of the Development more restrictive than those imposed by this Regulatory
-16-
Agreement, and if such requirements are applicable to the Development, this
Regulatory Agreement shall be deemed to be automatically amended to impose such
additional or more restrictive requirements.
(b) To the extent that the Housing Act, the Regulations or the Code, or any
amendments thereto, shall, in the written opinion of Bond Counsel filed with the Issuer,
the Bondowner Representative and the Borrower, impose requirements upon the
ownership or operation of the Development less restrictive than imposed by this
Regulatory Agreement, this Regulatory Agreement may be amended or modified to
provide such less restrictive requirements, but only by written amendment signed by
the Issuer, in its sole discretion, and the Borrower, and only upon receipt by the Issuer
of the written opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such amendment will not
affect the Tax-Exempt status of interest on the Bonds or violate the requirements of the
Housing Act, and is otherwise in accordance with Section 22 hereof.
(c) The Borrower and the Issuer shall execute, deliver and, if applicable, file of
record any and all documents and instruments necessary to effectuate the intent of this
Section 8, and each of the Borrower and the Issuer hereby appoints the Bondowner
Representative as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute, deliver and, if
applicable, file of record on behalf of the Borrower or the Issuer, as is applicable, any
such document or instrument (in such form as may be approved by Bond Counsel, as
evidenced by receipt of the opinion required by paragraph (b) above) if either the
Borrower or the Issuer defaults in the performance of its obligations under this
subsection (c); provided, however, that unless directed in writing by the Issuer or the
Borrower, the Bondowner Representative shall take no action under this subsection (c)
without first notifying the Borrower or the Issuer, or both of them, as is applicable, and
without first providing the Borrower or the Issuer, or both, as is applicable, an
opportunity to comply with the requirements of this Section 8. Nothing in this
subsection (c) shall be construed to allow the Bondowner Representative to execute an
amendment to this Regulatory Agreement on behalf of the Issuer.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Regulatory Agreement, whenever an
opinion of Bond Counsel is required or requested to be delivered hereunder after the Closing
Date, the Bondowner Representative, the Issuer and the Borrower shall accept (unless
otherwise directed in writing by the Issuer) an opinion of Bond Counsel in such form and with
such disclaimers as may be required so that such opinion will not be treated as a “covered
opinion” for purposes of the Treasury Department regulations governing practice before the
Internal Revenue Service (Circular 230), 31 CFR Part 10.
Section 9. Indemnification.
(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower agrees to indemnify, hold
harmless and defend the Issuer, the Bondowner Representative, and each of their respective
past, present and future officers, members, directors, officials, employees and agents
(collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), against any and all losses, damages, claims, actions,
liabilities, costs and expenses of any conceivable nature, kind or character (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, litigation and court costs, amounts paid in settlement
and amounts paid to discharge judgments) to which the Indemnified Parties, or any of them,
may become subject under or any statutory law (including federal or state securities laws) or
at common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon or in any way relating to:
(i) the Bonds, the Indenture, the Loan Agreement, the Loan, this Regulatory
Agreement or the execution or amendment hereof or thereof or in connection with
-17-
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including the issuance, sale or resale of
the Bonds;
(ii) any act or omission of the Borrower or any of its agents, contractors,
servants, employees, tenants) or licensees in connection with the Development, the
operation of the Development, or the condition, environmental or otherwise, occupancy,
use, possession, conduct or management of work done in or about, or from the
planning, design, acquisition, installation or rehabilitation of, the Development or any
part thereof;
(iii) any lien or charge upon payments by the Borrower to the Issuer and the
Bondowner Representative hereunder or under the Loan Agreement, or any taxes
(including, without limitation, all ad valorem taxes and sales taxes), assessments,
impositions and other charges imposed on the Issuer in respect of any portion of the
Development;
(iv) any violation of Article 9 of the Loan Agreement;
(v) the defeasance and/or redemption, in whole or in part, of the Bonds;
(vi) any untrue statement or misleading statement or alleged untrue
statement or alleged misleading statement of a material fact contained in any offering
statement or disclosure or continuing disclosure document for the Bonds or any of the
documents relating to the Bonds, or any omission or alleged omission from any offering
statement or disclosure or continuing disclosure document for the Bonds of any
material fact necessary to be stated therein in order to make the statements made
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
(vii) any declaration of taxability of interest on the Bonds, or allegations that
interest on the Bonds is taxable or any regulatory audit or inquiry regarding whether
interest on the Bonds is taxable; or
(viii) the Bondowner Representative’s acceptance or administration of the
Indenture, or the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties thereunder or
under any of the documents relating to the Bonds to which it is a party;
except (A) in the case of the foregoing indemnification of the Bondowner Representative or any
of its respective officers, members, directors, officials, employees and agents, to the extent
such damages are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnified
Party; or (B) in the case of the foregoing indemnification of the Issuer or any of its officers,
members, directors, officials, employees and agents, to the extent, with respect to any such
Indemnified Party, such damages are caused by the willful misconduct of the respective
Indemnified Party seeking indemnification. In the event that any action or proceeding is
brought against any Indemnified Party with respect to which indemnity may be sought
hereunder, the Borrower, upon written notice from the Indemnified Party, shall assume the
investigation and defense thereof, including the employment of counsel selected by the
Indemnified Party, and shall assume the payment of all expenses related thereto, with full
power to litigate, compromise or settle the same in its sole discretion; provided that the
Indemnified Party shall have the right to review and approve or disapprove any such
compromise or settlement. Each Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate
counsel in any such action or proceeding and participate in the investigation and defense
thereof, and the Borrower shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel;
provided, however, that such Indemnified Party may only employ separate counsel at the
expense of the Borrower if in the judgment of such Indemnified Party a conflict of interest
-18-
exists by reason of common representation or if all parties commonly represented do not agree
as to the action (or inaction) of counsel.
(b) The rights of any persons to indemnity hereunder and rights to payment of fees
and reimbursement of expenses pursuant to Section 4A(a), this Section 9 and Section 20 shall
survive the final payment or defeasance of the Bonds and in the case of the Bondowner
Representative any resignation or removal. The provisions of this Section shall survive the
termination of this Regulatory Agreement.
(c) Nothing contained in this Section 9 shall cause the obligation of the Borrower to
pay principal and interest on the Loan or amounts owing with respect to the Bonds to be a
recourse obligation of the Borrower.
(d) The obligations of the Borrower under this Section are independent of any other
contractual obligation of the Borrower to provide indemnity to the Issuer or otherwise, and the
obligation of the Borrower to provide indemnity hereunder shall not be interpreted, construed
or limited in light of any other separate indemnification obligation of the Borrower. The Issuer
shall be entitled simultaneously to seek indemnity under this Section and any other provision
under which it is entitled to indemnity.
Section 10. Consideration. The Issuer has agreed to issue the Bonds to provide funds
to lend to the Borrower to finance the acquisition and rehabilitation of the Development, all for
the purpose, among others, of inducing the Borrower to acquire, rehabilitate and operate the
Development. In consideration of the issuance of the Bonds by the Issuer, the Borrower has
entered into this Regulatory Agreement and has agreed to restrict the uses to which the
Development can be put on the terms and conditions set forth herein.
Section 11. Reliance. The Issuer and the Borrower hereby recognize and agree that the
representations and covenants set forth herein may be relied upon by all persons interested in
the legality and validity of the Bonds, in the exemption from State personal income taxation of
interest on the Bonds and in the Tax-Exempt status of the interest on the Bonds. In performing
their duties and obligations hereunder, the Issuer and the Bondowner Representative may rely
upon statements and certificates of the Low Income Tenants and upon audits of the books
and records of the Borrower pertaining to the Development. In addition, the Issuer and the
Bondowner Representative may consult with counsel, and the opinion of such counsel shall be
full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by
the Issuer or the Bondowner Representative hereunder in good faith and in conformity with
such opinion. In determining whether any default or lack of compliance by the Borrower exists
under this Regulatory Agreement, the Issuer shall not be required to conduct any investigation
into or review of the operations or records of the Borrower and may rely solely on any written
notice or certificate delivered to the Issuer or the Bondowner Representative by the Borrower
with respect to the occurrence or absence of a default unless it knows that the notice or
certificate is erroneous or misleading.
Section 12. Sale or Transfer of the Development . For the Qualified Development
Period, the Borrower shall not, except as provided below and in accordance with the Loan
Agreement and the Deed of Trust, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Development, in
whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the Issuer, which consent shall be given as
promptly as practicable following: (A) the receipt by the Issuer of evidence acceptable to the
Issuer that (1) the Borrower shall not be in default hereunder or under the Loan Agreement
(which may be evidenced by a certificate of the Borrower) or the purchaser or assignee
undertakes to cure any defaults of the Borrower to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuer; (2)
the continued operation of the Development shall comply with the provisions of this
-19-
Regulatory Agreement; (3) either (a) the purchaser or assignee or its property manager has at
least three years’ experience in the ownership, operation and management of similar size, rental
housing projects, and at least one year’s experience in the ownership, operation and
management of rental housing projects contained below-market-rate units, without any record
of material violations of discrimination restrictions or other state or federal laws or regulations
or local government requirements applicable to such projects, or (b) the purchaser or assignee
agrees to retain a property management firm with the experience and record described in
subclause (a) above, or (c) the transferring Borrower or its management company will continue
to manage the Development for at least one year following such transfer and during such
period will provide training to the transferee and its manager in the responsibilities relating to
the Low Income Units; and (4) the person or entity which is to acquire the Development does
not have pending against it, and does not have a history of, building code violations or
significant and material complaints concerning the maintenance, upkeep, operation, and
regulatory agreement compliance of any of its projects as identified by any local, state or
federal regulatory agencies; (B) the execution by the purchaser or assignee of any document
requested by the Issuer with respect to the assumption of the Borrower’s obligations under this
Regulatory Agreement and the Loan Agreement, including without limitation an instrument of
assumption hereof, and delivery to the Issuer of an opinion of such purchaser or assignee’s
counsel to the effect that each such document and this Regulatory Agreement are valid,
binding and enforceable obligations of such purchaser or assignee; (C) receipt by the Issuer of
an opinion of Bond Counsel addressed to the Issuer and the Bondowner Representative to the
effect that any such sale, transfer or other disposition will not adversely affect the Tax-Exempt
status of interest on the Bonds; (D) receipt by the Issuer and Bondowner Representative of all
fees and/or expenses then currently due and payable to the Issuer and Bondowner
Representative; (E) satisfaction of such other conditions or matters as are set forth in the Loan
Agreement and the Deed of Trust; and (F) such other conditions are met as the Issuer may
reasonably impose. The Issuer hereby consents to a transfer of the Development by the
Borrower to its general partner or its affiliate, if the Issuer receives the documents listed in the
preceding sentence. It is hereby expressly stipulated and agreed that any sale, transfer or other
disposition of the Development in violation of this Section 12 shall be null, void and without
effect, shall cause a reversion of title to the Borrower, and shall be ineffective to relieve the
Borrower of its obligations under this Regulatory Agreement. Nothing in this Section shall
affect any provision of any other document or instrument between the Borrower and any other
party which requires the Borrower to obtain the prior written consent of such other party in
order to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Development. Upon any sale or other transfer
which complies with this Regulatory Agreement, the Borrower shall be fully and automatically
released from its obligations hereunder to the extent such obligations have been assumed by
the transferee of the Development. Any transfer of the Development to any entity, whether or
not affiliated with the Borrower, shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 12, except
that no consent of the Issuer shall be required in the case of any transfer of the Development to
a wholly owned subsidiary of the Borrower if any applicable conditions set forth in the Loan
Agreement and any conditions set forth in the Deed of Trust are satisfied.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 12 to the contrary, neither the
consent of the Issuer nor the delivery of items (A) through (F) of the preceding paragraph shall
be required in the case of (a) the execution, delivery and recordation by Borrower of any
mortgage or deed of trust encumbering all or any part of the Development, or (b) a foreclosure
or deed in lieu of foreclosure by the Bondowner Representative whereby the Bondowner
Representative or a purchaser at a foreclosure sale becomes the owner of the Development, and
nothing contained in this Section 12 shall otherwise affect the right of the Bondowner
Representative or a purchaser at a foreclosure sale to foreclose on the Development or to
accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure. In addition, the provisions of this Section 12 shall not
apply to (i) the replacement of the managing general partner of the Borrower by an entity
formed by or that is a subsidiary of the initial managing general partner of the Borrower, (ii)
-20-
the withdrawal of any limited partner of the Borrower from its partnership, (iii) any transfer of
limited partnership interest in the Borrower and the admission of a substitute limited partner,
(iv) any transfer of direct or indirect interests in any limited partner of the Borrower, or (v) any
transfer of interests pursuant to the provisions of the Borrower’s partnership agreement as in
effect from time to time, including but not limited to the removal of a general partner of the
Borrower and replacement thereof by an affiliate of a limited partner of the Borrower pursuant
to the Borrower’s partnership agreement; provided, however, that the Issuer shall receive notice
from the Borrower of any transfer of general partner interests.
For the Qualified Development Period, the Borrower shall not: (1) except pursuant to
the provisions of this Regulatory Agreement, the Loan Agreement and the Deed of Trust (and
upon receipt by the Borrower of an opinion of Bond Counsel that such action will not adversely
affect the Tax-Exempt status of interest on the Bonds), or except upon a sale, transfer or other
disposition of the Development in accordance with the terms of this Regulatory Agreement,
subordinate or encumber any of the Development or grant commercial leases (not including
any laundry, cable, management office equipment, resident service (including but not limited
to convenience vending, or satellite television) or similar or related leases) of any part thereof,
or permit the conveyance, transfer or encumbrance of any part of the Development (except for
apartment leases); (2) demolish any part of the Development or substantially subtract from
any real or personal property of the Development, except to the extent that what is removed is
replaced with comparable property; or (3) permit the use of the dwelling accommodations of
the Development for any purpose except rental residences.
Section 13. Term. This Regulatory Agreement shall become effective upon its
execution and delivery, and shall remain in full force and effect for the period provided herein
and shall terminate as to any provision not otherwise provided with a specific termination date
and shall terminate in its entirety at the end of the Qualified Development Period, it being
expressly agreed and understood that the provisions hereof are intended to survive the
retirement of the Bonds and discharge of the Indenture, the Loan Agreement and the Deed of
Trust.
The terms of this Regulatory Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this
Regulatory Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect in the event of
involuntary noncompliance with the provisions of this Regulatory Agreement caused by fire,
seizure, requisition, change in a federal law or an action of a federal agency after the Closing
Date that prevents the Issuer and the Bondowner Representative from enforcing such
provisions, or condemnation, foreclosure, transfer of title by deed in lieu of foreclosure, or a
similar event, but only if , within a reasonable period, either the Bonds are retired or amounts
received as a consequence of such event are used to provide a project which meets the
requirements hereof; provided, however, that the preceding provisions of this sentence shall
cease to apply and the restrictions contained herein shall be reinstated if, at any time
subsequent to the termination of such provisions as the result of the foreclosure or the delivery
of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or a similar event, the Borrower or any related person (within
the meaning of Section 1.103-10(e) of the Regulations) obtains an ownership interest in the
Development for federal income tax purposes. The Borrower hereby agrees that, following any
foreclosure, transfer of title by deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar event, neither the Borrower
nor any such related person as described above will obtain an ownership interest in the
Development for federal tax purposes. Upon the termination of the terms of this Regulatory
Agreement, the parties hereto agree to execute, deliver and record appropriate instruments of
release and discharge of the terms hereof; provided, however, that the execution and delivery
of such instruments shall not be necessary or a prerequisite to the termination of this
Regulatory Agreement in accordance with its terms.
-21-
Section 14. Covenants to Run With the Land . Notwithstanding Section 1461 of the
California Civil Code, the Borrower hereby subjects the Development to the covenants,
reservations and restrictions set forth in this Regulatory Agreement. The Issuer and the
Borrower hereby declare their express intent that the covenants, reservations and restrictions set
forth herein shall be deemed covenants running with the land and shall pass to and be binding
upon the Borrower’s successors in interest to the Development; provided, however, that on the
termination of this Regulatory Agreement said covenants, reservations and restrictions shall
expire. Each and every contract, deed or other instrument hereafter executed covering or
conveying the Development or any portion thereof shall conclusively be held to have been
executed, delivered and accepted subject to such covenants, reservations and restrictions,
regardless of whether such covenants, reservations and restrictions are set forth in such
contract, deed or other instruments.
Section 15. Burden and Benefit. The Issuer and the Borrower hereby declare their
understanding and intent that the burdens of the covenants set forth herein touch and concern
the land in that the Borrower’s legal interest in the Development is rendered less valuable
thereby. The Issuer and the Borrower hereby further declare their understanding and intent that
the benefits of such covenants touch and concern the land by enhancing and increasing the
enjoyment and use of the Development by Low Income Tenants, the intended beneficiaries of
such covenants, reservations and restrictions, and by furthering the public purposes for which
the Bonds were issued.
Section 16. Uniformity; Common Plan. The covenants, reservations and restrictions
hereof shall apply uniformly to the entire Development in order to establish and carry out a
common plan for the use of the site on which the Development is located.
Section 17. Default; Enforcement. If the Borrower defaults in the performance or
observance of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Borrower set forth in this
Regulatory Agreement, and if such default remains uncured for a period of thirty (30) days
after notice thereof shall have been given by the Issuer or the Bondowner Representative to the
Borrower (with a copy to the Investor Limited Partner), or for a period of thirty (30) days from
the date the Borrower should, with due diligence, have discovered such default, then the Issuer
or the Bondowner Representative, acting on its own behalf or on behalf of the Issuer (to the
extent directed in writing by the Issuer, subject to the provisions of the Indenture), shall declare
an “Event of Default” to have occurred hereunder; provided, however, that if the default is of
such a nature that it cannot be corrected within thirty (30) days, such default shall not
constitute an Event of Default hereunder so long as (i) the Borrower institutes corrective action
within said thirty (30) days and diligently pursues such action until the default is corrected,
and (ii) in the opinion of Bond Counsel, the failure to cure said default within thirty (30) days
will not adversely affect the Tax-Exempt status of interest on the Bonds. The Issuer and the
Bondowner Representative shall have the right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower under
this Regulatory Agreement within shorter periods of time than are otherwise provided herein if
necessary in the opinion of Bond Counsel to insure compliance with the Housing Act or the
Code.
Any limited partner of the Borrower shall have the right but not the obligation to cure
any Event of Default, and the Issuer and the Bondowner Representative agree to accept any
cure tendered by any such limited partner on behalf of the Borrower within any cure period
specified above.
Following the declaration of an Event of Default hereunder the Issuer, or the
Bondowner Representative may, at their respective options, take any one or more of the
following steps, in addition to all other remedies provided by law or equity:
-22-
(i) by mandamus or other suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity,
including injunctive relief, require the Borrower to perform its obligations and covenants
hereunder or enjoin any acts or things which may be unlawful or in violation of the
rights of the Issuer or the Bondowner Representative hereunder;
(ii) have access to and inspect, examine and make copies of all of the books and
records of the Borrower pertaining to the Development;
(iii) take such other action at law or in equity as may appear necessary or
desirable to enforce the obligations, covenants and agreements of the Borrower
hereunder;
(iv) declare a default under the Loan Agreement and (subject to any applicable
cure periods set forth in the Loan Agreement) proceed with any remedies provided
therein; or
(v) order and direct the Borrower in writing to terminate the then manager of the
Development and to select a replacement Manager reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer
within 60 days of such written direction, and to notify the Issuer in writing of the
identity of the replacement Manager.
The Borrower hereby agrees that specific enforcement of the Borrower’s agreements
contained herein is the only means by which the Issuer may fully obtain the benefits of such
agreements made by the Borrower herein, and the Borrower therefore agrees to the imposition
of the remedy of specific performance against it in the case of any Event of Default by the
Borrower hereunder.
The Bondowner Representative shall have the right (but no obligation), in accordance
with this Section and the provisions of the Indenture, without the consent or approval of the
Issuer, to exercise any or all of the rights or remedies of the Issuer hereunder; provided that
prior to taking any such action the Bondowner Representative shall give the Issuer written
notice of its intended action. After the Indenture has been discharged, the Issuer may act on its
own behalf to declare an “Event of Default” to have occurred and to take any one or more of
the steps specified hereinabove to the same extent and with the same effect as if taken by the
Bondowner Representative.
All fees, costs and expenses of the Bondowner Representative and the Issuer incurred in
taking any action pursuant to this Section shall be the sole responsibility of the Borrower.
No breach or default under this Regulatory Agreement shall defeat or render invalid the
Deed of Trust or any like encumbrance upon the Development or any portion of either thereof

beneficiary of this Regulatory Agreement. CDLAC shall have the right (but not the obligation)
to enforce the CDLAC Conditions (as defined in Section 7) and to pursue an action for specific

omitted to be taken) by the Bondowner Representative in connection with this Regulatory
Agreement. Neither the Bondowner Representative nor any of its officers, directors or
employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or in
connection herewith except for its or their own negligence or willful misconduct. The
Bondowner Representative may consult with legal counsel selected by it (the reasonable fees of
which counsel shall be paid by the Borrower) and any action taken or suffered by it reasonably
and in good faith in accordance with the opinion of such counsel shall be full justification and
protection to it. The Bondowner Representative may at all times assume compliance with this
Regulatory Agreement unless otherwise notified in writing by or on behalf of the Issuer, or
unless it has actual knowledge of noncompliance.
After the date on which no Bonds remain outstanding as provided in the Indenture, the
Bondowner Representative shall have no further rights, duties or responsibilities under this
Regulatory Agreement, and all references to the Bondowner Representative in this Regulatory
Agreement shall be deemed references to the Issuer.
Section 28. No Interference or Impairment of Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, (i) the occurrence of an event of default under this Regulatory Agreement shall
not, under any circumstances whatsoever, be deemed or constitute a default under the Loan
Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement), except as may be otherwise specified in the
Loan Documents, and shall not impair, defeat or render invalid the lien of the Deed of Trust
and (ii) neither of the Issuer nor any other person shall:
(a) initiate or take any action which may have the effect, directly or indirectly,
of impairing the ability of the Borrower to timely pay the principal of, interest on, or
other amounts due and payable under, the Loan;
(b) interfere with or attempt to interfere with or influence the exercise by the
Bondowner Representative of any of its rights under the Loan Agreement, including,
without limitation, the Bondowner Representative remedial rights under the Loan

any action to accelerate or otherwise enforce payment or seek other remedies with
respect to the Loan, it being understood and agreed that the Issuer may not, without
the prior written consent of the Bondowner Representative, on account of any default
under this Regulatory Agreement, seek, in any manner, to cause the Loan to become
due and payable, to enforce the Loan Agreement or to foreclose on the Deed of Trust or
cause the Bondowner Representative to redeem the Bonds or to declare the principal of
the Bonds and the interest accrued on the Bonds to be immediately due and payable, or
cause the Bondowner Representative to foreclose or take any other action under the
Bond Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement), the Loan Documents or any
other documents which action would or could have the effect of achieving any one or
more of the foregoing actions, events or results.
No person other than the Bondowner Representative shall have the right to declare the
principal balance of the Loan to be immediately due and payable or to initiate foreclosure or
other like action.
The forgoing prohibitions and limitations shall not in any way limit the rights of the
Issuer to specifically enforce this Regulatory Agreement or to seek injunctive relief in order to
provide for the operation of the Development in accordance with the requirements of the Code
and the Housing Act, and shall not be construed to limit the rights of the Issuer to enforce its
rights against the Borrower under the indemnification provisions of the Regulatory Agreement
provided that the prosecution of a claim for indemnification shall not cause the Borrower to
file a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect
of the Borrower under any applicable liquidation, insolvency, bankruptcy, rehabilitation,
composition, reorganization, conservation or other similar law in effect now or in the future.
Notwithstanding the above, the provisions of this Section 28 shall not in any way limit
or alter the Issuer’s authority, power or activities as a governmental regulatory agency
pursuant to applicable laws and regulations relating to the Development or otherwise.

obligation to the contrary contained in this Regulatory Agreement, and except for the

the provisions and limitations of this Section 29) (i) the liability of the Borrower under this
Regulatory Agreement to any person or entity, including, but not limited to, the Bondowner
Representative or the Issuer and their successors and assigns, is limited to the Borrower’s

from time to time be given for the payment of obligations arising out of this Regulatory
Agreement or any other agreement securing the obligations of the Borrower under this
Regulatory Agreement; and (ii) from and after the date of this Regulatory Agreement, no
deficiency or other personal judgment, nor any order or decree of specific performance (other
than pertaining to this Regulatory Agreement, any agreement pertaining to the Development or
any other agreement securing the Borrower’s obligations under this Regulatory Agreement),
shall be rendered against the Borrower, the assets of the Borrower (other than the Borrower’s

Agreement), any rights of the Borrower under the Indenture and the Loan Documents (as

proceeding arising out of this Regulatory Agreement and the Indenture or any agreement

order or decree rendered pursuant to any such action or proceeding.

between the provisions of this Regulatory Agreement and any agreement referenced in Section

affordability, in the Development shall prevail, so long as at all times the requirements of

Agreement.
