BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
revitalization area, and 1/8 of a mile from the new Lafayette Public Library and Resource Center. The City of
Lafayette supports the project.
The ownership entity will be Lafayette Senior, L.P., a California limited partnership with Lafayette Senior LLC
serving as managing general partner. Lafayette Senior LLC is wholly owned by Eden Housing Investments, Inc., a
local non-profit housing developer that successfully manages several affordable housing projects in Contra Costa
County.
On February 28, 2012, 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. Subsequent to the
Inducement Resolution, 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 February 29, 2012. No
comments were received. The Board adopted Resolution No. 2012/93 on March 13, 2012 to authorize proceeding
with an issuance of bonds pursuant to Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code.
On May 16, 2012 the California Debt Limit Allocation Committee awarded the County authority to issue bonds in
the amount of $12,777,000. In addition to Multifamily Mortgage Revenue Bonds, the project will utilize several
other forms of financing detailed in Attachment A. The proceeds of the bonds will finance the loan for Lafayette
Senior Housing. The bonds will be directly placed with Banc of America Public Capital Corp, who in turn will
issue a loan at tax exempt rates to Lafayette Senior, L.P. The bond counsel for this transaction is Quint &
Thimmig LLP.
The recommended action is to adopt Bond Sale Resolution No. 2012/306 which would authorize the issuance of
$12,777,000 in tax-exempt bonds to finance the acquisition and construction of Lafayette Senior Housing in
Lafayette. The proposed bond sale resolution authorizes a number of actions, a summary of which is listed in
Attachment B.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Negative action would prevent the sale of Multifamily Housing Revenue bonds in order to provide a loan to
Lafayette Senior, L.P. to finance the acquisition and construction of Lafayette Senior Housing, a 46-unit
affordable senior housing development, located at 3428 Mount Diablo Boulevard in Lafayette. The loss of bond
financing could jeopardize the project's feasibility.

than three (3) Business Days prior to the date when such funds are required from the Owners,
which such notice shall describe the amount of the purchase price to be funded and the
purposes to which the proceeds of the Bonds so purchased will be applied. Upon the payment
of any portion of the purchase price of the Bonds by the Owners in accordance with the terms of
this Section 3.01(b), such payment shall be deposited by the Trustee in the Project Fund as
designated in the corresponding funding notice received by the Trustee from the Servicer (each,
a “Funding Notice”) and thereafter immediately applied in accordance with the corresponding
Requisition pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof.
The Trustee shall maintain in its books a log which shall reflect from time to time the
payment of the purchase price of the Bonds by the Owners in accordance with the provisions of
this Section 3.01(b). If presented to the Trustee by any Owner, amounts funded by the Owners
in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.01(b) shall be noted on Schedule A attached
to the applicable Bond so presented to the Trustee.
Notwithstanding any provision in Section 3.06 hereof to the contrary, the Bonds shall
bear interest as provided in Section 3.06 hereof upon the deposit with Trustee by the Owners of
the amount of purchase price of the Bonds so paid in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 3.01(b).
Section 3.02 Conditions Precedent to Authentication and Delivery of Bonds. Prior to
the initial authentication and delivery of the Bonds, the Trustee shall have received each of the
following:

(a) the original executed Note, and executed original counterparts of this
Indenture, the other Issuer Documents and the other Loan Documents;
(b) confirmation from the Servicer or its counsel that the conditions to initial
purchase of Bonds contained in the Construction Disbursement Agreement have been
satisfied or waived by Servicer;
(c) a certified copy of the Resolution;
(d) evidence of the payment of the initial installment of the purchase price of
the Bonds and deposit of the Borrower funds required pursuant to Section 5.01(c) of this
Indenture;
(e) an opinion of Bond Counsel substantially to the effect that the Bonds
constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Issuer and that under existing
statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions, the interest on the Bonds is not
includable in gross income of the Owners (other than an Owner who is a “substantial
user” of the Project or a “related person” to a “substantial user,” as defined in Section
147(a) of the Code) for federal income tax purposes; and
(f) an original investor letter executed by the initial purchaser(s) of the
Bonds, in substantially the applicable form set forth in Exhibit B hereto.
Section 3.03 Registered Bonds. The Bonds shall be in fully registered form and shall
be payable in accordance with the provisions hereof and of the Bonds to the Owner thereof as
shown on the Bond registration records maintained by the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.09(a).
Section 3.04 Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Bonds. In the event a Bond is
mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Issuer may execute and the Trustee may authenticate
and deliver a new Bond bearing a notation indicating the principal amount outstanding, in
exchange for the mutilated Bond, or in substitution for a Bond so destroyed, lost or stolen. In
every case of exchange or substitution, the applicant shall furnish to the Issuer and the Trustee
(i) such security or indemnity as may be required by the Trustee to save the Issuer and the
Trustee harmless from all risks, however remote related to such Bond, and (ii) evidence to the
Trustee’s satisfaction of the mutilation, destruction, loss or theft of a Bond and of the ownership
thereof. Upon the issuance of a Bond upon such exchange or substitution, the Trustee may
require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may
be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses, including counsel fees, of the Issuer and
the Trustee related thereto. In case a matured Bond shall become mutilated or be destroyed,
lost or stolen, the Trustee may, instead of authenticating a Bond in exchange or substitution
therefor, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case
of a mutilated Bond) if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Issuer and the
Trustee such security or indemnity as the Trustee may require to save them harmless and
evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the mutilation, destruction, loss or theft of the Bond and
of the ownership thereof.

Section 3.05 Terms of Bonds – General.
(a) Registration; Denomination. The Bonds shall be issuable initially in Authorized
Denominations as specified in writing by the initial Owner to the Issuer and the Trustee on or
prior to the Closing Date. Thereafter, the Bonds shall be issuable in any Authorized
Denomination required to effect transfers, exchanges or redemptions permitted or required by
this Indenture. The Bonds shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, with such
amendments and changes as the officer executing the same shall deem appropriate.
(b) Date and Maturity. All Bonds shall be dated the Closing Date. The Bonds shall
bear interest from the Closing Date until paid in full, payable for the periods, in the amounts, at
the rates, and as provided in Section 3.06 hereof. The Bonds shall mature on the Maturity Date,
unless sooner redeemed or accelerated.
(c) Payment. The principal of and interest on the Bonds shall be payable in lawful
money of the United States of America by check or draft of the Trustee. Payments of interest
and of principal upon redemption pursuant to Section 4.01(f) hereof shall be mailed by first-
class mail to the Owners of the Bonds at their addresses appearing on the records of the Trustee;
provided, however, that the payment to the Servicer shall, upon written request of the Servicer,
be transmitted by the Trustee by wire transfer or other means requested in writing by the
Servicer. Payment of the principal (other than upon redemption pursuant to Section 4.01(f)
hereof) of a Bond shall only be made upon surrender of the Bond at the Principal Office of the
Trustee. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, all payments of principal
and interest with respect to Bonds owned by the Majority Owner shall, at the written request of
the Majority Owner to the Trustee, be made by wire transfer to the Majority Owner without the
requirement of surrender of such Bonds under any circumstances.
Section 3.06 Interest on the Bonds.
(a) General. The Bonds for which installment purchase payments have been
received by the Trustee shall bear interest at the applicable rate provided below. On each
Interest Payment Date, interest accrued on the Bonds for the previous Calculation Period shall
be payable by the Trustee to the Bondowners. While the Bonds bear interest at a Variable Rate
or at the Reset Rate, or at an Alternative Rate based on a Variable Rate or the Reset Rate, interest
on the Bonds shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, for the number of days actually
elapsed. While the Bonds bear interest at the Fixed Rate, or at an Alternative Rate based on the
Fixed Rate, interest on the Bonds shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
equal months of 30 days each. While the Bonds bear interest at the Taxable Rate, interest on the
Bonds shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and actual days
elapsed.
(b) Variable Rate. During the Variable Rate Period, the Bonds shall bear interest at
the Variable Rate. During the Variable Rate Period, the Servicer shall determine a Variable Rate
for each day. The Servicer shall give telephonic (with following written confirmation) or
facsimile notice on, or promptly following, each Interest Payment Date to the Trustee and the
Borrower of the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date. Absent manifest error, the
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 808
-22-
determination of the Variable Rate by the Servicer shall be conclusive and binding upon the
Owners, the Issuer, the Borrower and the Trustee.
(c) Fixed Rate. During the Fixed Rate Period, the Bonds shall bear interest at the
Fixed Rate. Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Conversion Date, the Trustee shall
provide notice by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Owners (with a copy to the Issuer and
the Borrower) at their addresses shown on the Bond register notifying them that the interest
rate on the Bonds will be converted to the Fixed Rate effective on the Conversion Date. Failure
to mail any such notice or any defect in the mailing thereof in respect of any Bond shall not
affect the validity of the conversion of the interest rate with respect to any Bond.
(d) Reset Rate. During the Reset Period, the Bonds shall bear interest at the Reset
Rate. Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Reset Date, the Trustee shall provide notice by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Owners (with a copy to the Issuer and the Borrower) at
their addresses shown on the Bond register notifying them that the interest rate on the Bonds
will be converted to the Reset Rate effective on the Reset Date if the Trustee receives an Opinion
of Bond Counsel to the effect that conversion of the interest rate on the Bonds to the Reset Rate
on the Reset Date will not, in and of itself, cause interest on the Bonds to be includable in gross
income for federal income tax purposes. Failure to mail any such notice or any defect in the
mailing thereof in respect of any Bond shall not affect the validity of the conversion of the
interest rate with respect to any Bond. It is a condition to conversion of the interest rate on the
Bonds to the Reset Rate on the Reset Date that the Trustee and the Servicer shall have received
an Opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that conversion of the interest rate on the Bonds to the
Reset Rate on the Reset Date will not, in and of itself, cause interest on the Bonds to be
includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes. During the Reset Period, the
Servicer shall determine a Reset Rate for the Bonds for each day. The Servicer shall give
telephonic or facsimile notice (with following written confirmation) on, or promptly following,
each Interest Payment Date to the Trustee and the Borrower of the interest payable on such
Interest Payment Date. Absent manifest error, the determination of the Reset Rate by the
Servicer shall be conclusive and binding upon the Owners, the Issuer, the Borrower and the
Trustee.
(e) Alternative Rate. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default under the
Loan Agreement or an Event of Default under this Indenture, the Bonds shall bear interest at
the Alternative Rate.
(f) Taxable Rate. If an Initial Notification of Taxability shall occur, the Bonds shall
bear interest from the date of such Initial Notification of Taxability at the Taxable Rate. If such
Initial Notification of Taxability is reversed by the Internal Revenue Service or a court of
competent jurisdiction and a Determination of Taxability has not occurred, then the Bonds shall
bear interest from the date of such reversal at the rate otherwise applicable to the Bonds as if no
Initial Notification of Taxability had been delivered, and the Bank shall refund to the Borrower
on or prior to the next succeeding Bond Payment Date, the excess interest previously paid. This
provision shall survive the discharge of this Indenture.
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 809
-23-
(g) Additional Interest. The Owners of the Bonds shall also be entitled to Additional
Interest, which amount, if any, shall be deposited in the Revenue Fund pursuant to the
provisions of Section 3.2(b) of the Loan Agreement.
(h) Maximum Rate. In no event shall interest accrue on the Bonds at a rate greater
than the Maximum Rate.
(i) Usury. Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture to the contrary, in no
event shall the interest contracted for, charged or received in connection with the Bonds
(including any other costs or considerations that constitute interest under the laws of the State
which are contracted for, charged or received pursuant to this Indenture) exceed the maximum
rate of nonusurious interest allowed under the laws of the State as presently in effect and to the
extent of any increase allowable by such laws. To the extent permitted by law, interest
contracted for, charged or received on the Bonds shall be allocated over the entire term of the
Bonds, to the end that interest paid on the Bonds does not exceed the maximum amount
permitted to be paid thereon by law. Excess interest, if any, provided for in this Indenture, or
otherwise, shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or, if theretofore
paid, shall be credited as principal paid on the Bonds.
Section 3.07 Payment of Interest on the Bonds. Interest on the Bonds shall be payable
in the following manner: commencing the first day of the first month after the month in which
the Closing Date occurs and continuing on each Interest Payment Date thereafter, interest on
the Outstanding principal balance of the Bonds (which amount shall reflect so much of the
purchase price as shall have been paid pursuant to Section 3.01(b) hereof) at the applicable
interest rate for the Bonds shall be due and payable in arrears; and all accrued and unpaid
interest shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date, if not paid earlier. To the extent
more than one Bond is issued and Outstanding at any one time under the terms of this
Indenture, payments of principal, interest and premium (if any) on the Bonds shall be made in
a pro rata manner based on the Outstanding principal amount of the Bonds.
Section 3.08 Execution and Authentication of Bonds.
(a) The Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the manual or facsimile
signature of an Authorized Representative of the Issuer, and its corporate seal (or a facsimile
thereof) shall be thereunto affixed, imprinted, engraved or otherwise reproduced, and attested
by the manual or facsimile signature of an Authorized Representative of the Issuer.
(b) In case any officer of the Issuer whose signature or facsimile signature shall
appear on any of the Bonds shall cease to be such officer before the Bonds so signed and sealed
shall have been actually delivered, such Bonds may, nevertheless, be delivered as herein
provided, and may be issued as if the persons who signed or sealed such Bonds had not ceased
to hold such offices or be so employed. Any Bond may be signed and sealed on behalf of the
Issuer by such persons as, at the actual time of the execution of such Bond, shall be duly
authorized or hold the proper office in or employment by the Issuer, although at the date of the
Bonds such persons may not have been so authorized nor have held such office or employment.

(c) No Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or shall be entitled to any
right or benefit under this Indenture unless there shall be endorsed on such Bond a certificate of
authentication in the form set forth in such Bond duly executed by the Trustee, by the manual
signature of an authorized signatory thereof, and such certificate of the Trustee upon any Bond
executed on behalf of the Issuer shall be conclusive evidence that the Bond so authenticated has
been duly issued under this Indenture and that the Owner thereof is entitled to the benefits of
this Indenture.
Section 3.09 Negotiability, Transfer and Registry of Bonds.
(a) All the Bonds issued under this Indenture shall be negotiable, subject to the
provisions for registration and transfer contained in this Indenture and in the Bonds. So long as
this Indenture remains in force, the Trustee, as registrar, shall maintain and keep books for the
recordation of the taxpayer identification number of each of the Owners of the Bonds and the
registration, transfer and exchange of Bonds. Each Bond shall be transferable only upon the
books of registration. The Trustee is hereby appointed registrar, to act as agent of the Issuer for
the registration and transfer of Bonds and the maintenance of the books of registration. The
Issuer may appoint a successor registrar upon notice by mail to the Trustee and the Owners of
the Bonds.
(b) Upon a partial redemption of the Bonds, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver new Bond certificates representing the unredeemed portion of the
Bonds to be so tendered or redeemed in part, in exchange for the certificates representing the
Bonds to be so tendered or redeemed in part. Surrender of Bonds for execution, authentication
and delivery of new certificates shall not be a precondition to the redemption of Bonds pursuant
to Section 4.01(f) hereof. If a Bond shall be transferred in part, such Bond shall be delivered to
the registrar, and the Trustee shall, on behalf of the Issuer, deliver two Bonds in replacement
therefor, having the same maturity and interest provisions and in the same aggregate principal
amount as the Bond so delivered.
(c) Upon surrender of the Bonds at the Principal Office of the Trustee with a written
instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Trustee, duly executed by the Owner or his attorney
duly authorized in writing, such Bonds may, at the option of the Owner thereof, be exchanged
for an equal aggregate principal amount of Bonds in Authorized Denominations.
(d) The Borrower shall bear all costs in connection with any transfer or exchange of
Bonds, including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Issuer, Bond Counsel and the Trustee
and of any required indemnity for the Issuer and the Trustee; provided that the costs of any tax
or other governmental charge imposed upon such transfer or exchange shall be borne by the
Owner of the Bond.
(e) Bonds shall be transferred upon presentation and surrender thereof at the
Principal Office of the Trustee by the Owner thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing
with due endorsement for transfer or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Trustee. All Bonds surrendered in any exchanges or transfers shall forthwith
be canceled. For every such exchange or transfer of Bonds, there shall be made a charge
sufficient to pay any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 811
-25-
exchange or transfer, which sum or sums shall be paid by the Owner requesting such exchange
or transfer as a condition precedent to the exercise of the privilege of making such exchange or
transfer. The Trustee shall not be obligated to (i) authenticate, exchange or transfer any Bond
during a period beginning at the opening of business on any Record Date and ending at the
close of business on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, (ii) authenticate, exchange or
transfer any Bond during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days next preceding
any selection of Bonds to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the date of the first
giving of notice of such redemption, or (iii) transfer or exchange any Bonds called or being
called for redemption in whole or in part.
(f) The Bonds may be transferred in whole or in part by any Owner only as follows:
(1) to the Borrower, any subsidiary of the initial Owner, any Affiliate of the
Owner, any entity arising out of any merger or consolidation of the Owner, or a trustee
in bankruptcy of the Owner;
(2) to any “accredited investor” (as defined in Regulation D promulgated
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) or any “qualified institutional buyer” (as
defined in Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended);
(3) to any bank, savings institution or insurance company (whether acting in
a trustee or custodial capacity for any “accredited investor” as defined in clause (2),
above, “qualified institutional buyer” or on its own behalf); or
(4) to any trust or custodial arrangement each of the beneficial owners of
which is required to be an “accredited investor” or “qualified institutional buyer;” (as
defined in clause (2), above).
Any transfer of Bonds described in clauses (2), (3) or (4) of this Section 3.09(f) shall be
conditioned upon delivery by the proposed transferee to the Trustee of an investor letter in
substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B hereto.
(g) In addition to any transfer permitted by Section 3.09(f), the Bonds may be
transferred, in whole or in part:
(1) to one or more Owners upon receipt by the Issuer, each Owner making
such transfer, and the Trustee of (i) any disclosure document which is prepared in
connection with such transfer of any Bond, (ii) evidence that each such Bond is rated
“A” or better by one of S&P or Moody’s, and (iii) an opinion of Counsel to the effect that
(A) the exemption of the Bonds or any securities evidenced thereby from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the exemption of this
Indenture from qualification under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, will
not be impaired as a result of such transfer, and (B) such transfer will not adversely
affect the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income of the Owners thereof
(other than an Owner who is a “substantial user” of the Project or a “related person” to a
“substantial user,” as defined in Section 147(a) of the Code) for federal income tax
purposes; or
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 812

(2) to any trust, custodial or similar arrangement the ownership interests in
which are to be distributed through the issuance of (A) securities that are registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or are exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and are rated “A” by S&P or
Moody’s (or an equivalent rating by another nationally recognized rating agency) or
better, without respect to modifier, or securities the pass-through payments on which
are guaranteed by an insurer or guarantor, the unsecured long-term obligations of
which are rated “A” by S&P or Moody’s (or an equivalent rating by another nationally
recognized rating agency) or better, without respect to modifier, or (B) non-investment-
grade securities representing a residual interest in such trust, custodial or similar
arrangement that may only be transferred in transactions that are exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Section 3.10 Ownership of Bonds. The Issuer, the Trustee and any other Person may
treat the registered owner of any Bond as the absolute owner thereof, whether such Bond shall
be overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal or
redemption price of and interest on such Bond and for all other purposes whatsoever, and
payment of the principal or redemption price, if any, of and interest on any such Bond shall be
made only to, or upon the order of, such registered owner. All such payments to such
registered owner shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability of the Issuer
upon such Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, and neither the Issuer nor any Trustee
shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
Section 3.11 Payments on Bonds Due on Non-Business Days. In any case where any
Bond Payment Date shall be a day other than a Business Day, then payment of the Bonds need
not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same
force and effect as if made on the Bond Payment Date, and no interest shall accrue for the
period after such date.
Section 3.12 Registration of Bonds in the Book-Entry Only System.
(a) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the provisions of this
Section 3.12 and the Representation Letter (as defined below) shall apply with respect to any
Bond registered to Cede & Co. or any other nominee of The Depository Trust Company
(“DTC”) while the Book-Entry Only System (meaning the system of registration described in
paragraph (b) of this Section 3.12) is in effect. The Book-Entry Only System shall become
effective thirty (30) days after the Owners of all the Bonds provide notice in writing to the
Trustee, the Borrower, and the Issuer to the effect that the Owners desire that the Bonds be in
book entry form, subject to the provisions below concerning termination of the Book-Entry Only
System. Until all of the Owners of the Bonds provide such notice, the Book-Entry Only System
shall not be in effect.
(b) Upon the effectiveness of the Book-Entry Only System, the Issuer shall execute
and deliver, and the Trustee shall transfer and exchange Bond certificates for a separate single
authenticated fully registered Bond for each stated maturity in substantially the form provided
for in Exhibit A hereto. Any legend required to be on the Bonds by DTC may be added by the
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 813
-27-
Trustee. On the date of delivery thereof, the Bonds shall be registered in the registry books of
the Trustee in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC as agent for the Issuer in maintaining
the Book-Entry Only System. With respect to Bonds registered in the registry books kept by
the Trustee in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, the Issuer, the Borrower, and the
Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any Participant (which means securities
brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and various other entities,
some of whom or their representatives own DTC) or to any Beneficial Owner (which means,
when used with reference to the Book-Entry Only System, the Person who is considered the
Beneficial Owner of the Bonds pursuant to the arrangements for book entry determination of
ownership applicable to DTC) with respect to the following: (i) the accuracy of the records of
DTC, Cede & Co. or any Participant with respect to any ownership interest in the Bonds, (ii) the
delivery to or from any Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other Person, other than DTC,
of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption or tender (whether
mandatory or optional), or (iii) the payment to any Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any
other Person, other than DTC, of any amount with respect to the principal or premium, if any,
or interest on the Bonds. The Trustee shall pay all principal of and premium, if any, and
interest on the Bonds only to or upon the order of DTC, and all such payments shall be valid
and effective fully to satisfy and discharge the Issuer’s obligations with respect to the principal
of any premium, if any, and interest on Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No
Person other than DTC or its agent shall be entitled to receive an authenticated Bond evidencing
the obligation of the Issuer to make payments of principal and premium, if any, and interest
pursuant to this Indenture. Upon delivery by DTC to the Trustee of written notice to the effect
that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., the words “Cede
& Co.” in this Indenture shall refer to such new nominee of DTC.
(c) Upon receipt by the Trustee of written notice from DTC to the effect that DTC is
unable or unwilling to discharge its responsibilities, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall
transfer and exchange Bonds as requested by DTC in appropriate amounts and in authorized
denominations, and whenever DTC requests the Issuer and the Trustee to do so, the Trustee
and the Issuer will, at the expense of the Borrower, cooperate with DTC in taking appropriate
action after reasonable notice (i) to arrange for a substitute bond depository willing and able
upon reasonable and customary terms to maintain custody of the Bonds or (ii) to make available
for transfer and exchange Bonds registered in whatever name or names and in whatever
authorized denominations as DTC shall designate.
(d) In the event the Beneficial Owners subsequently determine that the Beneficial
Owners should be able to obtain Bond certificates, the Beneficial Owners may so notify DTC
and the Trustee, whereupon DTC will notify the Participants of the availability through DTC of
Bond certificates. In such event, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall, at the expense of
the Beneficial Owners, transfer and exchange Bond certificates as requested by DTC in
appropriate amounts and in authorized denominations. Whenever DTC requests the Trustee to
do so, the Trustee will, at the expense of the Beneficial Owners, cooperate with DTC in taking
appropriate action after reasonable notice to make available for transfer and exchange Bonds
registered in whatever name or names and in whatever authorized denominations as DTC shall
designate.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as
any Bond is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, all payments with
respect to the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bond and all notices with
respect to such Bond shall be made and given, respectively, to DTC as provided in the Letter of
Representation to be delivered by the Borrower and the Trustee to DTC.
(f) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, so long as the Bonds
outstanding are held in the Book-Entry Only System, if less than all of such Bonds of a maturity
are to be redeemed upon any redemption of Bonds hereunder, the particular Bonds or portions
of Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by DTC in such manner as DTC may determine.
(g) So long as the Book-Entry Only System is in effect, a Beneficial Owner who elects
to have its Bonds purchased pursuant to any provision of this Indenture requiring that Bonds
be purchased at an election of an Owner, shall effect delivery by causing a Participant to
transfer the Beneficial Owner’s interest in the Bonds pursuant to the Book-Entry Only System.
The requirement for physical delivery of Bonds in connection with a demand for purchase or a
mandatory purchase will be deemed satisfied when the ownership rights in the Bonds are
transferred in accordance with the Book-Entry Only System.

Interest Payment Date during the Variable Rate Period, at a redemption price equal to the
principal amount thereof, together with accrued interest to the date of redemption, plus the
Prepayment Equalization Payment, and (b) in whole, but not in part, on any Interest Payment
Date during the Reset Period, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof,
together with accrued interest to the date of redemption. No optional redemption is permitted

Section 4.04 Purchase in Lieu of Redemption. At the election of the Borrower upon a
redemption in whole of the Bonds, by written notice to the Trustee and the Servicer given not
less than five (5) Business Days in advance of such redemption date, the Bonds will be deemed
tendered for purchase in lieu of the redemption on such date. The purchase price of Bonds so
purchased in lieu of redemption shall be the principal amount thereof together with all accrued
and unpaid interest to the date of redemption and shall be payable on the date of redemption
thereof. Bonds so purchased in lieu of redemption shall remain Outstanding and shall be
registered to or upon the direction of the Borrower.
Section 4.05 Notice of Redemption.
(a) Notice of redemption shall be given by the Trustee to the Owners, the Issuer and
Borrower by facsimile transmission or other similar electronic means of communication,

redemption; provided, however, that no notice of redemption shall be required to be given to
the Owners for a redemption pursuant to Section 4.01(e) of this Indenture during such time as
there is a single Owner of all the Bonds, and no notice of redemption shall be required to be
given to the Owners in any event for a redemption pursuant to Section 4.01(f) of this Indenture.
Receipt of such notice of redemption shall not be a condition precedent to such redemption, and
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 817
-31-
failure to so notify any of such registered Owners of the redemption shall not affect the validity
of the proceedings for the redemption of the Bonds.
(b) Notice of redemption having been given as provided in subsection (a) of this
Section 4.05 and all conditions precedent, if any, specified in such notice having been satisfied,
the Bonds or portions thereof so to be redeemed shall become due and payable on the date fixed
for redemption at the redemption price specified therein plus any accrued interest to the
redemption date, and upon presentation and surrender thereof at the place specified in such
notice, such Bonds or portions thereof shall be paid at the redemption price, plus any accrued
interest to the redemption date. On and after the redemption date (unless funds for the payment
of the redemption price and accrued interest shall not have been provided to the Trustee), (i)
such Bonds shall cease to bear interest, and (ii) such Bonds shall no longer be considered as
Outstanding under this Indenture.
Section 4.06 Selection of Bonds To Be Redeemed.
(a) Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, if less than all the Bonds are to be
redeemed, the particular Bonds or portions of Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by the
Trustee, in such manner as the Trustee in its sole discretion may deem fair and appropriate so
that Bonds are redeemed, as nearly as practicable, from each Owner, if there is more than one
Owner, on a pro rata basis according to the principal amount of Bonds represented by each
Bond Outstanding.
(b) In making such selection, the Trustee may treat each Bond to be redeemed as
representing that number of Bonds of the lowest Authorized Denomination as is obtained by
dividing the principal amount of such Bond by such Authorized Denomination.
Section 4.07 Partial Redemption of Registered Bonds.
(a) In case part but not all of a Bond shall be selected for redemption, upon
presentation and surrender at the Principal Office of the Trustee of such Bond by the Owner
thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing (with due endorsement for transfer or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee), the Issuer
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the order of such Owner,
without charge therefor, for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Bond so
surrendered, a Bond or Bonds, at the option of such Owner, of any Authorized Denomination of
like tenor, or if less than the minimum Authorized Denomination, an amount necessary to equal
the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Bond; provided, however, that such
surrender of Bonds shall not be required for payment of the redemption price pursuant to
Sections 4.01(e) or 4.01(f) hereof. For all purposes of this Indenture (including exchange and
transfer), the Bond so issued in less than a minimum Authorized Denomination shall be
deemed to have been issued in an Authorized Denomination. Bonds so presented and
surrendered shall be canceled in accordance with this Indenture.
(b) In the event of a partial redemption of Bonds other than pursuant to Section
4.01(e) of this Indenture or any failure of all of the Bonds authorized hereunder to be purchased
through the “drawdown” mechanism pursuant to Section 3.01(b) through the Conversion Date,

of this Section 9.02, those Bond Obligations which are not so canceled and deemed paid shall
remain Outstanding for all purposes of this Indenture; provided that if all Outstanding Bonds
shall be delivered to the Trustee in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.02 and all of the

and interest on which when due (or upon the redemption thereof at the option of the Owner),
will, without reinvestment, provide cash which together with the cash, if any, on deposit with
the Trustee at the same time, shall be sufficient, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on

discharge at least thirty (30) days in advance.

Indenture may require or permit to be signed and executed by the Owners may be in one or
more instruments of similar tenor, and shall be signed or executed by such Owners in person or

thereon by a bank, trust company or national banking association or by the certificate of any
notary public or other officer authorized to take acknowledgments of deeds, that the person

Limited Liability of Issuer.
(a) The Bonds are not general obligations of the Issuer, but are limited obligations
payable solely from the Trust Estate. The Bonds do not constitute an indebtedness or obligation
of the State or any county (other than the Issuer, to the limited extent set forth in this Indenture),
municipality or political subdivision thereof, and will not constitute or result in the creation of

individual capacity, past, present or future, of the Issuer or of any successor entity, either
directly or through the Issuer or any successor entity whether by virtue of any constitutional
provision, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty otherwise.

No personal liability whatsoever will attach to, or be incurred by, any Boardmember, officer,
agent, attorney or employee as such, past, present or future, of the Issuer or of any successor
entity, either directly or through the Issuer or any successor entity, under or by reason of any of
the obligations, promises or agreements entered into in the Bonds or between the Issuer and the
Trustee, whether contained herein or to be implied herefrom as being supplemental hereto; and
all personal liability of that character against every such Boardmember, officer, agent, attorney
and employee is, by the execution of this Indenture and as a condition of, and as part of the
consideration for, the execution of this Indenture, expressly waived and released.
(c) Nothing contained in the Bonds or in this Indenture shall be considered as assigning
or pledging any funds or assets of the Issuer other than the Trust Estate.
(d) No failure of the Issuer to comply with any term, condition, covenant or agreement
in this Indenture or in any document executed by the Issuer in connection with the Project, or
the issuance, sale and delivery of the Bonds shall subject the Issuer to liability for any claim for
damages, costs or other charges except to the extent that the same can be paid or recovered from
the Trust Estate.
(e) The Issuer shall not be required to advance any moneys derived from any source
other than the Trust Estate for any of the purposes of this Indenture, any of the other Issuer
Documents or any of the Loan Documents, whether for the payment of the principal or
redemption price of, or interest on, the Bonds, the payment of any fees or administrative
expenses or otherwise.
(f) Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, it is expressly
understood by the parties to this Indenture that (a) the Issuer and the Trustee may rely
exclusively on the truth and accuracy of any certificate, opinion, notice or other instrument
furnished to the Issuer or the Trustee or any Owner as to the existence of any fact or state of
affairs, (b) the Issuer shall not be under any obligation under this Indenture to perform any
record keeping or to provide any legal services, it being understood that such services shall be
performed or caused to be performed by the Trustee or by the Owners, and (c) none of the
provisions of this Indenture shall require the Issuer to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
to incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its
rights or powers under this Indenture, unless it shall first have been adequately indemnified to
its satisfaction against any costs, expenses and liability which it may incur as a result of taking
such action.
(g) The Issuer shall be entitled to the advice of counsel (who, except as otherwise
provided, may be counsel for any Owner), 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

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

right or power shall affect its subsequent exercise of the right or power.
Section 10.03 Preservation and Inspection of Documents. All documents received by

under or by reason of this Indenture or any covenant, condition or stipulation of this Indenture;
and all the covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Indenture shall be for the
sole and exclusive benefit of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Servicer, the Borrower and the Owners

based thereon or on this Indenture or any other Issuer Document or the Loan Documents
against any Boardmember, officer, employee or agent of the Issuer or any person executing the
Bonds.
Section 10.06 Severability of Invalid Provisions. If any one or more of the covenants or
agreements provided in this Indenture on the part of the Issuer or any Trustee to be performed
should be contrary to law, then such covenant or covenants or agreement or agreements shall
be deemed severable from the remaining covenants and agreements, and in no way shall affect
the validity of the other provisions of this Indenture.

to, it shall be deemed to include any entity that may succeed to the principal functions and
powers of the Issuer under the Act, and all the covenants and agreements contained in this

Project.
6. All permits, licenses, approvals and the like required to complete

Project Approvals required for the acquisition, construction and equipping of the Project

and equipping of the Project in accordance with the Plans and Specifications and not
heretofore obtained by the Borrower will not be obtained by the Borrower in the

Operating Revenues that it realizes until the amount so deposited is equal to the
aggregate amounts so disbursed.]
Section 5.23 Covenants Regarding Tax Credits. The Borrower hereby agrees to
comply with all of the following covenants (each, a “Tax Credit Covenant”):
(a) To observe and perform all obligations imposed on the Borrower in
connection with the Tax Credits, including the obligation to have the Project “placed in

the Tax Credits, without the Servicer’s prior written consent, which the Servicer may
give or withhold in the Servicer’s sole and absolute discretion;
(e) To cause to be kept all records, and cause to be made all elections and
certifications, pertaining to the number and size of apartment units, occupancy thereof
by tenants, income level of tenants, set-asides for low-income tenants, and any other
matters now or hereafter required to qualify for and maintain the Tax Credits in
connection with the low-income occupancy of the Project;
(f) To comply with the appropriate minimum low-income set-aside
requirements under the Code or applicable federal regulations (the “Federal Laws”) and
all laws and regulations of the State (the “State Laws”) applicable to the creation,
maintenance and continued availability of the Tax Credits;
(g) To certify compliance with the set-aside requirements and report the
dollar amount of qualified basis and maximum applicable percentage, date of placement
in service and any other information required for the Tax Credits at such time periods as
required by Federal Laws or State Laws for such Tax Credits;
(h) To set aside the appropriate number of units for households with incomes
meeting the required standards of the median income of the county in which the Project
is located to qualify for the Tax Credits (as determined pursuant to Section 42 of the

units as “low-income units” qualifying for the Tax Credits under Section 42(i)(3) of the
Code and/or State Laws;
(i) To exercise good faith in all activities relating to the operation and
maintenance of the Project in accordance with the requirement of Federal Laws and
State Laws; and

qualified for purposes of the Borrower’s obtaining Tax Credits, and (iv) the fully-
completed Form 8609 (required by the Code) issued for the Project. The Borrower shall
deliver promptly to the Servicer such other certificates, income certificates, reports and
information as the Servicer may request.
The Borrower understands and acknowledges that the Bank is purchasing the Bonds
based, in part, upon the value of the Tax Credits, and the Tax Credits, directly or indirectly,
constitute part of Trustee’s security on behalf of the Owners of the Bonds, for the obligations of
the Borrower in connection with the Loan. The Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 913
-43-
the Servicer and the Owners harmless for, from, and against any and all actions, suits, claims,
demands, liabilities, losses, damages, obligations, and costs or expenses, including litigation
costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from or in any way connected with the Borrower’s
failure to comply with one or more Tax Credit Covenants, excepting those arising out of, or
resulting, solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Servicer.
Section 5.24 Leasing. The Servicer (and all other parties whose approval is required)
must approve the Borrower’s standard form of residential lease or rental agreement prior to its
use by the Borrower. The Borrower may not materially modify the approved standard form of
residential lease without the Servicer’s prior written consent in each instance (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld), together with the approval of all other parties whose
consent is required. Each lease, other than leases on the Borrower’s standard form of residential
lease, of any part of the Project is subject to the Servicer’s written approval as to form and
substance prior to execution and delivery. Despite the foregoing, the Borrower may enter into
residential leases (and amendments) in the ordinary course of business with bona fide third
party tenants without the Servicer’s prior written consent if the Borrower uses the approved
standard form of residential lease and:
(i) Within fifteen (15) days after the Servicer’s written request therefor, the
Servicer receives a copy of the executed lease (accompanied by all financial information
and certificates obtained by the Borrower pertaining to the tenant);
(ii) The Borrower, acting in good faith and exercising due diligence, has
determined that the tenant qualifies as a low-income family for purposes of meeting the
requirements for obtaining Tax Credits;
(iii) The lease meets the standards required by Section 42 of the Code;
(iv) The lease meets the requirements of the Servicer, the Issuer, and the
Investor Limited Partner;
(v) The lease reflects an arm’s-length transaction and, so long as the
Construction Disbursement Agreement is in effect, conforms to the projections of the Pro
Forma Schedule attached thereto;
(vi) The lease does not affect more than one (1) residential unit within the
Improvements and is for a minimum term of six (6) months and a maximum term of
twelve (12) months, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Servicer; and
(vii) So long as the Construction Disbursement Agreement is in effect, the
lease, together with all leases previously executed, does not cause the Loan to become
“out of balance” as that term is defined in Section 1.2(a) of the Construction
Disbursement Agreement The Borrower acknowledges that the Loan may become “out
of balance” if the landlord’s aggregate economic obligations under the leases exceed, or
the Net Operating Income from the Project fails to meet, the Borrower’s projections for
such obligations, thereby increasing the cost or decreasing the value of the Project.

(b) The Servicer in the exercise of its sole discretion may consider any executed lease
it receives to be unsatisfactory if the lease fails to meet any of the requirements of this
Agreement. If this happens, or if the Borrower at any time fails to submit any executed lease
(and accompanying information) at the time required by this Section, or if any Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, the Servicer may make written demand on the Borrower to
submit all future leases for the Servicer’s approval prior to execution. The Borrower must
comply with any such demand by the Servicer.
(c) The Servicer’s approval of any lease is for the sole purpose of protecting the
Servicer’s security and preserving the Servicer’s rights under the Loan Documents. No
approval by the Servicer will result in a waiver of any default of the Borrower. In no event will
the Servicer’s approval of any lease be a representation of any kind with regard to the lease, its
enforceability or the financial capacity of any tenant or guarantor.
(d) The Borrower must perform all obligations required to be performed by it as
landlord under any lease affecting any part of the Land or any space within the Improvements.

are named on any of the OFAC Lists (such occurrence, an “OFAC Violation”), Borrower will
immediately (i) give notice to the Issuer, the Trustee and the Servicer of such OFAC Violation,
and (ii) comply with all laws applicable to such OFAC Violation (regardless of whether the
party included on any of the OFAC Lists is located within the jurisdiction of the United States of

Issuer, Trustee and Servicer, in providing such additional information and documentation on
Borrower’s and such Related Person’s legal or beneficial ownership, policies, procedures and
sources of funds as Issuer, Trustee and Servicer deem necessary or prudent to enable each of
them to comply with the Anti-Terrorism Regulations as now in existence or hereafter amended.

provisions of the Indenture) shall:

the unpaid indebtedness under the Loan Documents to be due and payable
immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be
immediately due and payable; and
(ii) take whatever action at law or in equity or under any of the Loan
Documents or the General Partner Documents, as may appear necessary or desirable to
collect the payments and other amounts then due and thereafter to become due
hereunder or thereunder or under the Note, or to exercise any right or remedy or to
enforce performance and observance of any obligation, agreement or covenant of the
Borrower under this Loan Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document (including
without limitation foreclosure of the Mortgage) or any General Partner Document; and
(iii) cause the Project to be completed, [constructed] [rehabilitated] and
equipped in accordance with the Plans and Specifications, with such changes therein as
the Servicer may, from time to time, and in its sole discretion, deem appropriate.
(b) Any amounts collected pursuant to action taken under this Section (other than
amounts collected by the Issuer pursuant to the Reserved Rights) shall, after the payment of the
costs and expenses of the proceedings resulting in the collection of such moneys and of the
expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Issuer, the Trustee or the Servicer
and their respective Counsel, be paid into the Revenue Fund (unless otherwise provided in this
Loan Agreement) and applied in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. No action
taken pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall relieve the Borrower from the Borrower’s obligations
pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof.
Section 7.3 No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy conferred herein or in any other Loan
Document upon or reserved to the Trustee or the Servicer 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 Trustee or the Servicer to exercise any
remedy reserved to it herein or in any other Loan Document, it shall not be necessary to give
any notice, other than such notice as may be herein expressly required.

pocket expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Servicer.
Section 7.5 No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver; Consents to Waivers. In
the event any agreement contained in this Loan Agreement should be breached by either party
and thereafter 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. No waiver shall be
effective unless in writing and signed by the party making the waiver.
Section 7.6 Remedies Subject to Applicable Law. All rights, remedies, and powers
provided by this Article may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not
violate any applicable provisions of law, and all the provisions of this Article are intended to be
subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling in the Land and
to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Loan Agreement invalid,
unenforceable, or not entitled to be recorded, registered, or filed under the provisions of any
applicable law.
Section 7.7 Cure by Special Limited Partner. The Issuer, the Trustee and the Servicer
hereby agree that cure of any Event of Default made or tendered by the Investor Limited
Partner or by the Special Limited Partner shall be deemed to be a cure by the Borrower and
shall be accepted or rejected on the same basis as if made or tendered by the Borrower.
Section 7.8 Issuer Exercise of Remedies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the Issuer may enforce its Reserved Rights under the Loan Documents and
exercise the permitted remedies with respect thereto against the Borrower; provided that the

outstanding balance of the Bonds or the Loan to be due and neither the Issuer nor the Trustee
shall take any action in respect of Reserved Rights (i) to foreclose to take similar action under
the Mortgage or otherwise in respect of any liens upon or security interests in the Project or
other property pledged to secure the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents, (ii) to
appoint a receiver, (iii) to enforce any similar remedy against the Project or other property
pledged to secure the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents; or (iv) to enforce any

remedies of the Owners under the Indenture.
Section 8.4 Execution in Counterparts. This Loan Agreement may be executed in
several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute but one
and the same instrument; provided, however, that for purposes of perfecting a lien or security

Section 8.9 Debtor Creditor Relationship. It is expressly understood and agreed that
the relationship between the Issuer and the Borrower established by the transaction
contemplated by this Loan Agreement and by all of the other Loan Documents is exclusively
that of creditor or lender, on the part of the Issuer, and debtor or borrower, on the part of the
Borrower and is in no way to be construed as a partnership or joint venture of any kind. It is
further understood that all payments by the Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be
exclusively on account of the said debtor/creditor relationship.
Section 8.10 Usury; Total Interest. This Loan Agreement is subject to the express
condition, and it is agreed, that at no time shall payments hereunder, under the Note or under
the other Loan Documents that are or are construed to be payments of interest on the unpaid
principal amount of the Loan reflect interest that is borne at a rate in excess of the maximum
permitted by law. The Borrower shall not be obligated or required to pay, nor shall the Issuer
be permitted to charge or collect, interest borne at a rate in excess of such maximum rate. If by
the terms of this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents the Borrower is required to
make such payments reflecting interest borne at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, such
payments shall be deemed to be reduced immediately and automatically to reflect such
maximum rate. It is further agreed that the total of amounts paid hereunder as interest on the
Loan which is to pay interest on the Bonds, cumulative from the date of the Note, shall not
exceed the sum of 5% per month, simple and non-compounded for each month from such date
to the date of calculation (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve thirty-day months).
Any such excess payment previously made in either case shall be immediately and
automatically applied to the unpaid balance of the principal sum of the Loan and not to the
payment of interest thereon. This Loan Agreement is also subject to the condition that amounts
paid hereunder representing late payment or penalty charges or the like shall only be payable to
the extent permitted by law.
Section 8.11 Term of this Loan Agreement. This Loan Agreement shall be in full force
and effect from its date to and including such date as all of the Bonds issued under the
Indenture shall have been fully paid or retired in accordance with their terms and the terms of
the Indenture (or provision for such payment shall have been made as provided in the
Indenture), except, however, that the covenants and provisions relating to the Reserved Rights
of the Issuer and the covenants relating to the preservation of exclusion from gross income of
interest on the Bonds for purposes of federal income taxation shall survive the termination
hereof.
Section 8.12 Non-Recourse. Anything contained in any provision of this Loan
Agreement, the Mortgage, the Regulatory Agreement, the Borrower’s Tax Certificate or the
Note notwithstanding, in the event of any proceeding to foreclose the Mortgage or otherwise to
enforce the provisions of the Note, this Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or the Regulatory
Agreement after Stabilization, neither the Issuer, nor the Trustee or other holder of the Note
(collectively, the “Noteholder”), nor any Owner of Bonds, nor any beneficiary of the Mortgage
shall be entitled to take any action to procure any personal money judgment or any deficiency
decree against the Borrower or any partner of the Borrower or its or their heirs, personal
representatives, successors and assigns, it being understood and agreed that recourse hereon
and under the Mortgage, the Regulatory Agreement and the Note shall, following Stabilization,
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 926
-56-
be limited to the assets of the Borrower that are the security from time to time provided with
respect to the Note and this Loan Agreement; provided, however, nothing herein contained
shall limit or be construed to limit or impair the enforcement against the Project or any other
additional security as may from time to time be given to the beneficiary hereof as security for
the performance of this Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Regulatory Agreement, the
Borrower’s Tax Certificate, the Note, or any other instrument now or hereafter securing the
Note or this Loan Agreement, or the rights and remedies of the Trustee or the beneficiary, its
successors and assigns, under this Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Regulatory Agreement,
the Tax Agreement or the Note or any other instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
provisions of this Section shall be null and void and have no force and effect to the extent of any
loss suffered by the Issuer, the Trustee, any Bondholder or any beneficiary of or the trustee
under the Mortgage as a result of the Borrower’s: (a) committing any act of fraud; (b)
misapplication of any condemnation award or casualty insurance proceeds; (c) failure to apply
the revenues of the Project in the manner and for the purposes provided in the Bond
Documents, whether before or after an Event of Default; or (d) violation of any environmental
laws. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit the naming of the Borrower in an action to
realize upon the remedies provided herein either at law or in equity, subject to the foregoing
limitation against a personal money judgment or deficiency decree against the Borrower, the
partners of the Borrower or their heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, or to
prohibit the naming of any person in any action to realize upon the remedies provided in the
General Partner Documents or any other guaranty given in favor of the Issuer, the Trustee or
the Servicer.
Section 8.13 PATRIOT Act Notice. Issuer hereby notifies Borrower and Guarantor
that, pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies Borrower and Guarantor, which information includes the
names and addresses of Borrower and Guarantor and other information that will allow Issuer to
identify Borrower and Guarantor in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.
Section 8.14. Limited Liability of the Issuer. All obligations of the Issuer under any of
the Issuer Documents or the Loan Documents shall be limited obligations of the Issuer, payable
solely and only from the Trust Estate. No owner or owners of any of the Bonds shall ever have
the right to compel any exercise of the taxing power of the State or any political subdivision
thereof or of the Issuer for the payment of the Bonds, nor to enforce the payment of the Bonds
against any property of the State or any such political subdivision thereof or of the Issuer except
as provided in the Indenture.
It is recognized that notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Agreement, and
except for the Trust Estate pledged under the Indenture, none of the Borrower, the Trustee, the
Owners or the Servicer shall look to the Issuer for damages suffered by the Borrower, the
Trustee, the Owners, the Servicer or any owner of Bonds as a result of the Issuer’s performance,
failure to perform or insufficient performance of any covenant, undertaking or obligation under
this Loan Agreement or any of the other Issuer Documents or the Loan Documents, or as a
result of the incorrectness of any representation made by the Issuer in any of such documents,
nor for any other reason, unless such damages result solely from the gross negligence, willful
misconduct, fraud or intentional misrepresentation of the Issuer. Although this Loan
Agreement recognizes that such documents shall not give rise to any pecuniary liability of the
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 927
-57-
Issuer, nothing contained in this Loan Agreement shall be construed to preclude in any way any
action or proceeding (other than that element of any action or proceeding involving a claim for
monetary damages against the Issuer) in any court or before any governmental body, agency or
instrumentality or otherwise against the Issuer or any of its officers or employees to enforce the
provisions of any of such documents which the Issuer is obligated to perform and which the
Issuer has not assigned to the Trustee or any other person.
The Issuer shall be entitled to the advice of counsel (who, except as otherwise provided
herein, may be counsel for any Owner), and the Issuer shall be wholly protected as to action
taken or omitted in good faith in reliance on such advice. The Issuer shall not be liable for any
action (a) taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be within its discretion or
powers hereunder, or (b) in good faith omitted to be taken by it because such action was
reasonably believed to be beyond its discretion or powers hereunder, or (c) taken by it pursuant
to any direction or instruction by which it is governed hereunder, or (d) omitted to be taken by
it by reason of the lack of any direction or instruction required hereby for such action; nor shall
it be responsible for the consequences of any error of judgment reasonably made by it. The
Issuer shall in no event be liable for the application or misapplication of funds or for other acts
or defaults by any person or entity, except for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of its
own agents, 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 cost 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 for its costs reasonably incurred or advances reasonably made, with interest at
the rate of 10% per annum, 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 it 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.
Section 8.15. No Limitations on Actions of Issuer in Exercise of its Governmental
Powers. Nothing in this Loan Agreement or the Indenture is intended, nor shall it be construed,
to in any way limit the actions of the Issuer in the exercise of its governmental powers, as
contrasted with any contractual rights or powers. Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor
Agreement, it is the express intention of the parties hereto that the Issuer shall retain the full
right and ability to exercise its governmental powers with respect to the Borrower, the Project,
the Servicer, the Owners and the transactions contemplated by this Loan Agreement, the
Indenture, the Regulatory Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the same extent as if it
were not a party to this Financing Agreement, the Indenture, the Regulatory Agreement or the
transactions contemplated thereby, and in no event shall the Issuer have any liability in contract
arising under this Loan Agreement, the Indenture or the Regulatory Agreement by virtue of
any exercise of its governmental powers.
Section 8.16. Execution of Counterparts. This Loan Agreement may be executed in
several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute but one
and the same instrument.

California (the “Issuer”), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”) or the
Loan Agreement dated as of even date herewith among the Issuer, the Trustee and Borrower (as

the Trustee by the Borrower shall be in immediately available funds or shall be such that on the
Bond Payment Date they are available funds.
All payments under this Note shall be applied as provided in the Indenture.

“Mortgage”) made by Borrower to the Holder covering property, with improvements thereon,
as more fully described therein (the “Property”) and certain other security as more fully set
forth in the Loan Agreement.
At no time shall interest be payable on this Note or under the Mortgage or the Loan
Agreement at a rate in excess of the maximum permitted by law. Borrower shall not be
obligated or required to pay, nor shall the Holder per permitted to charge or collect, interest at a
rate in excess of such maximum rate. If by the terms of this Note or of the Mortgage or Loan
Agreement, Borrower is required to pay interest at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the
rate of interest hereunder or thereunder shall be deemed to be reduced immediately and
automatically to such maximum rate, and any such excess payment previously made shall be
immediately and automatically applied to the unpaid balance of the principal sum hereof and
not to the payment of interest.
Amounts payable hereunder representing late payments, penalty payments or the like
shall be payable to the extent allowed by law.
This Note is subject to all of the terms, conditions, and provisions of the Loan

subject to the requirements set forth in the Loan Agreement, the Holder may, upon the direction
of the Servicer, declare the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note and accrued interest, if
any, due and payable at once. All of the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in the
Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note.
No delay or omission on the part of the Holder in exercising any remedy, right or option
under this Note or the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver of such remedy, right or
option. In any event a waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a waiver or bar to
any such remedy, right or option on a future occasion. The rights, remedies and options of the
Holder under this Note and the Loan Documents are and shall be cumulative and are in
addition to all of the rights, remedies and options of the Holder at law or in equity or under any
other agreement.

limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements actually incurred, which costs may be
added to the indebtedness hereunder, together with interest thereon at the Alternative Rate to
the extent allowed by law.
This Note may not be changed orally. Presentment for payment, notice of dishonor,
protest and notice of protest are hereby waived. The acceptance by the Holder of any amount
after the same is due shall not constitute a waiver of the right to require prompt payment, when
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 933

due, of all other amounts due hereunder. The acceptance by the Holder of any sum in an
amount less than the amount then due shall be deemed an acceptance on account only and
upon condition that such acceptance shall not constitute a waiver of the obligation of Borrower
to pay the entire sum then due, and Borrower’s failure to pay such amount then due shall be
and continue to be a default notwithstanding such acceptance of such amount on account, as
aforesaid. Consent by the Holder to any action of Borrower which is subject to consent or
approval of the Holder hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to require such
consent or approval to future or successive actions.

SCHEDULE OF INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. General Requirements
In order to close, the following insurance specifications must be met and approved in
writing by the Bank’s insurance consultant. Copies of policies together with an original
ACORD 28 (Evidence of Property Insurance) and an ACORD 25 (Certificate of Insurance) or an
approved equivalent listing all coverage will be accepted for pre-closing contingent on complete
“true and certified” copies of the policies with all endorsements attached being received within
90 days after closing. Each certificate must correctly identify the property by address and the
insured by borrowing entity name.
Policy premiums cannot be financed or paid in installments to an insurance carrier, but
must be paid in full as evidenced by a paid receipt presented prior to or at pre-closing. All
policies and renewals thereof are to be written for not less than one year. An escrow account, as
described further in the loan application, will be established to pay the premium at renewal.
All of the liability policies must be written and provide for claims to be paid on an
“Occurrence” basis.
Each policy must have a cancellation provision that provides that the carrier will notify
Mortgagee, its successors and/or assigns, in writing at least 30 days in advance of any policy
reduction or cancellation for any reason except for non-payment of premium (for which not less
than 10 days written notice shall be provided).
The insurer under each policy shall be a domestic primary insurance company duly
qualified as such under the laws of the states in which the Property is located and duly
authorized, admitted and licensed in such states to transact the applicable insurance business
and to write the insurance provided and must have and maintain a rating of AA or higher by
Standard & Poor’s or A.M. Best rating of A-IX or higher for any Mortgage Loan $20,000,000 or
above. For any Mortgage Loan below $20,000,000, the insurance carrier must have and
maintain a rating of “A” or higher by Standard & Poor’s and/or an A.M. Best rating of A-VI or
higher.
The insurance policies may be part of a blanket policy provided the insured
acknowledges that failure to pay any portion of the premium which is not allocable to the
mortgaged property or any other action not relating to the mortgaged property which would
otherwise permit the issuer to cancel the coverage, would require the mortgaged property to be
insured by a separate, single-property policy. The blanket policy must properly identify and
fully protect the mortgaged property as if a separate policy were issued for 100% of
Replacement Cost (insurable value) at the time of loss, allocate a portion of the premium to the
mortgaged property, and otherwise meet all applicable insurance requirements of the Bank.
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 938
E-2
During the life of the loan, should any condition change or occur which affects the levels
of risk anticipated, Borrower will be required to obtain appropriate coverage to mitigate the
associated risk.
If any required type of coverage is not available for the mortgaged property, Mortgagee shall have
no obligation to close the loan.
2. Mortgagee Clause
All policies must include EXACTLY the following standard, non-contributory,
mortgagee clause:
U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee
One California Street, Suite 1000
San Francisco, California 94111
Attention: Corporate Trust Services
Mortgagee must be named as a first Mortgagee with respect to buildings, Loss Payee with
respect to loss of rents/business interruption, and Additional Insured with respect to general
liability.
3. Waiver of Subrogation
Not Required.
4. Required Insurance Coverage
Borrower is required to maintain the following policies of insurance during the term of
the Loan:
• All Risk or Special Causes of Loss Form Property Insurance. Property
insurance must be maintained insuring against loss or damage by fire, lightning, wind
and such other perils as are included in a standard “all-risk” or “special causes of loss”
form, and against loss or damage by all other risks and hazards covered by a standard
property insurance policy including, without limitation, riot and civil commotion,
vandalism, malicious mischief, burglary and theft. Such insurance shall be in an amount
equal to the then full replacement cost of the Improvements, Equipment and personal
property, without deduction for physical depreciation, no co-insurance is permitted, and
maximum acceptable deductible is $25,000. If the property is “non-conforming” with
respect to zoning requirements, Borrower will be required to maintain “demolition”
insurance (in an amount equal to 10% of the building value) and “increased cost of
construction” insurance (in an amount equal to 25% of the building value). The burden
to prove conforming use is the borrowers.
• Terrorism Insurance. For Loans in excess of $10 million and if the insurance
required under the subparagraph immediately above excludes terrorism, terrorism
insurance must be maintained, unless at the time of determination: (i) it is not available
at commercially reasonable rates; (ii) no affiliates of Borrower have purchased terrorism
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 939
E-3
insurance with respect to another property, (iii) terrorism insurance is not commonly
maintained by owners of other similar properties and (iv) it is not required for
securitized loans similar to the Loan and secured by property similar to the Property in
the commercial mortgage-backed securities market.
• Flood Insurance. If any portion of the Improvements are located in an area
identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special
flood hazards (i.e. Zone A and V) and in which flood insurance is made available under
the National Flood Insurance Program, then flood insurance must be maintained at least
equal to the lesser of (A) the full replacement cost, together with business interruption
coverage or (B) the maximum limit of coverage available for the Property under the
National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, The Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 and the
National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, as each may be amended, or $250,000 per
residential building and $500,000 per commercial building.
• Earthquake Insurance. If a seismic study is required by this Program
Summary and such study reveals a 50 year/10% PML of not more than 20% of the
replacement cost (as determined by the Bank), earthquake insurance will not be
required. If the PML study reveals that a 50 year/10% PML of greater than 20% of the
replacement cost, then earthquake insurance must be maintained in an amount equal to
the replacement cost with a maximum deductible of 10% replacement cost.
• Boiler and Machinery Insurance. If the Property contains HVAC equipment,
or there are boilers or other pressure-fired vessels that are required to be regulated by
the state in which the property is located, then Broad Form Boiler and Machinery
Insurance (without exclusion for explosion and including “system breakdown coverage)
must be maintained on the Property and Improvements in an amount at least equal to or
greater than the repair and full replacement cost of such equipment and insurance
against loss of occupancy or use arising from any breakdown of such equipment in such
amounts as are generally required by institutional lenders for properties comparable to
the Property.
• Business Interruption/Loss of Rental Income Insurance. Business Interruption
and/or loss of rental income insurance must be maintained in an amount sufficient to

(b) The Borrower (and any person related to it within the meaning of Section
147(a)(2) of the Code) will not take or omit to take, as is applicable, any action if such
action or omission would in any way cause the proceeds of the Loan to be applied in a
manner contrary to the requirements of the Loan Agreement or this Regulatory
Agreement.
(c) The Borrower 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 exclusion from gross
income for federal income tax purposes or the exemption from California personal
income taxation of the interest on the Bonds and, if it 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.
(d) The Borrower will take such action or actions as may be necessary, in the
written opinion of Bond Counsel filed with the Issuer and the Borrower, to comply fully
with the Act, the Code and all applicable rules, rulings, policies, procedures, Regulations
or other official statements promulgated, proposed or made by the Department of the
Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service to the extent necessary to maintain the
exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds.
(e) The acquisition and commencement of construction by the Borrower of the
Project occurred after the date which was 60 days prior to the Inducement Date. The
Borrower has incurred a substantial binding obligation to expend proceeds of the Loan
pursuant to which the Borrower is obligated to expend at least five percent (5%) of the
maximum principal amount of the Loan.
(f) The Borrower will proceed with due diligence to complete the acquisition and
construction of the Project and the full expenditure of the proceeds of the Loan. The
Borrower reasonably expects to expend the full $__________ principal amount of the
Loan for Project Costs by August 1, 2014.
(g) The Borrower’s reasonable expectations respecting the total expenditure of
the proceeds of the Loan have been accurately set forth in a certificate of the Borrower
delivered to the Issuer on the Closing Date. At all times, the aggregate disbursements of
the proceeds of the Loan will have been applied to pay or to reimburse the Borrower for
the payment of Qualified Project Costs in an amount equal to ninety-seven percent
(97%) or more of such disbursements, and less than twenty-five percent (25%) of such
disbursements shall have been used to pay for the acquisition of land or an interest
therein.
(h) The Borrower will not take or omit to take, as is applicable, any action if such
action or omission would in any way cause the proceeds from the Loan to be applied in
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 954
-7-
a manner contrary to the requirements of the Loan Agreement, this Regulatory
Agreement, the Act or the Code.
(i) On the Completion Date of the Project, the Borrower will submit to the Issuer,
a duly executed and completed Completion Certificate.
(j) The Borrower acknowledges that the Issuer may appoint an Administrator
other than the Issuer to administer this Regulatory Agreement and to monitor
performance by the Borrower of the terms, provisions and requirements hereof. In such
event, the Borrower shall comply with any reasonable request by the Issuer or the
Administrator to deliver to any 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 Project and the books and records with respect thereto available for
inspection by the Administrator as an agent of the Issuer.
(k) Within thirty (30) days after the date on which fifty percent (50%) of the
dwelling units in the Project are occupied, the Borrower will submit to the Issuer and the
Servicer, and will cause to be recorded in the County Recorder’s office, a duly executed
and completed Certificate as to Commencement of Qualified Project Period in the form
of Exhibit D hereto.
(l) Money on deposit in any fund or account in connection with the Bonds,
whether or not such money was derived from other sources, shall not be used by or
under the direction of the Borrower, in a manner which would cause the Bonds to be
“arbitrage bonds” within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code, and the Borrower
specifically agrees that the investment of money in any such fund shall be restricted as
may be necessary to prevent the Bonds from being “arbitrage bonds” under the Code.
(m) All of the proceeds of the Bonds and earnings from the investment of such
proceeds will be used to pay costs of the Project; and no more than two percent (2%) of
the proceeds of the Bonds will be used to pay Costs of Issuance.
(n) No portion of the proceeds of the Bonds 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. No portion of the proceeds of the Bonds shall be used for
an office unless the office is located on the premises of the facilities constituting the
Project 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 Project.
(o) The Borrower hereby incorporates herein, as if set forth in full herein, each of
the representations, covenants and warranties of the Borrower contained in the Tax
Agreement.
(p) The Borrower shall comply with all applicable requirements of Section
65863.10 of the California Government Code, including the requirements for providing

Section 65863.11 of the California Government Code.
(q) The Borrower acknowledges, represents and warrants that it understands the
nature and structure of the transactions contemplated by this Regulatory Agreement;
that it is familiar with the provisions of all of the documents and instruments relating to
the Bonds to which it is a party or of which it is a beneficiary; that it understands the
financial and legal risks inherent in such transactions; and that it has not relied on the
Issuer for any guidance or expertise in analyzing the financial or other consequences of
such financing transactions or otherwise relied on the Issuer in any manner except to
issue the Bonds in order to provide funds to assist the Borrower in acquiring and
rehabilitating the Project.
(r) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.18(c) of the Loan Agreement, and
in addition thereto, the Borrower agrees to obtain a written report from an independent
firm with experience in calculating excess investment earnings for purposes of Section
148(f) of the Code, not less than once on or about each five year anniversary of the
Closing Date and within thirty (30) days of the date the Bonds have been paid in full,
determining that either (i) no excess investment earnings subject to rebate to the federal

the prior five-year period (or, with respect to the final such report following the
repayment of the Bonds, have arisen since the last five-year report); or (ii) excess
investment earnings have so arisen during the prior five-year period (or, with respect to
the final such report following the repayment of the Bonds, have arisen since the last
five-year report), and specifying the amount thereof that needs to be rebated to the
federal government and the date by which such amount needs to be so rebated. The
Borrower shall provide a copy of each report prepared in accordance with the preceding
sentence to the Issuer, each time within one week of its receipt of the same from the
independent firm that prepared the respective report.
Section 3. Qualified Residential Rental Project. The Borrower hereby acknowledges and
agrees that the Project is to be owned, managed and operated as a “qualified residential rental
project” (within the meaning of Section 142(d) of the Code) for a term equal to the Qualified
Project Period. To that end, and for the term of this Regulatory Agreement, the Borrower hereby
represents, covenants, warrants and agrees as follows:

providing multifamily residential rental property for seniors. The Borrower will own,
manage and operate the Project as a project to provide multifamily residential rental

(e) All of the dwelling units in the Project will be available for rental during the
Qualified Project Period on a continuous basis to members of the general public, on a

(f) The Project site consists of a parcel or parcels that are contiguous except for

applicable Regulations, or condemnation or similar event, the Borrower covenants that,

it will either prepay the Loan or, if permitted under the provisions of the Loan
Agreement, apply any proceeds received as a result of any of the preceding events to
reconstruct the Project to meet the requirements of Section 142(d) of the Code and the
applicable Regulations.
The Issuer hereby elects to have the Project 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 Project Period, not less than forty percent (40%) of the
units in the Project 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.
(b) No tenant qualifying as a Low Income Tenant shall be denied continued
occupancy of a unit in the Project 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 same building (within the meaning of Section 42 of the Code) 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).
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 958
-11-
(c) For the Qualified Project 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 Project, 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 Project. In lieu of
obtaining an annual Verification of Income, the Borrower may, with respect to any
particular twelve-month period ending August 1 of each year, deliver to the
Administrator no later than fifteen (15) days after such date, a certification that as of
August 1, no unit in the Project 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 Project. 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.
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 Trustee, the Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue
Service to inspect the books and records of the Borrower pertaining to the Project,
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
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 959
-12-
30), October 15 (for the quarterly period ending September 30) and January 15 (for the
quarterly period ending December 31) during the Qualified Project Period rent rolls and
other information required by the Focus Program, along with, to the Administrator and
the Trustee, a Certificate of Continuing Program Compliance executed by the Borrower
stating (i) the percentage of the aggregate of the dwelling units of the Project 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 Project 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 Project, 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 Project 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 the
Borrower, the Trustee 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.
Section 4A. Additional Requirements of the Issuer. In addition to the requirements set
forth elsewhere in this Regulatory Agreement and to the extent not prohibited by the
requirements set forth in Sections 4, 5 and 6 hereof, the Borrower hereby agrees to comply with
each of the requirements of the Issuer set forth in this Section 4A, as follows:
(a) All tenant lists, applications and waiting lists relating to the Project shall at all
times be kept separate and identifiable from any other business of the Borrower and
shall be maintained as required by the Issuer, in a reasonable condition for proper audit
and subject to examination upon reasonable notice (which need not be in excess of three
Business Days, as defined in the Loan Agreement) and during business hours by
representatives of the Issuer.

(b) The Borrower shall not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, color, religion,
sex, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, source of income (e.g. AFDC and
SSI), ancestry or handicap in the lease, use or occupancy of the Project (except as
required to comply with Section 3(e)(iii) or (iv)), or in connection with the employment
or application for employment of persons for the construction, operation, or
management of the Project.
(c) The Borrower shall not permit occupancy in any unit in the Project by more
than (i) two persons per bedroom in the unit, plus (ii) one person; and the Borrower
shall at all times offer for rent the largest unit then available for the applicable household
size (being one bedroom units for 2-3 person households, and two bedroom units for 4-5
person households).
(d) The Borrower shall pay directly to the Issuer (i) on the Closing Date the Issuer
Issuance Fee and the Issuer Annual Fee for the period from the Closing Date to but not
including August 1, 2014, and (ii) on each August 1, on and after August 1, 2014, the
Issuer Annual Fee; without in either case any requirement for notice or billing of the
amount due. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuer promptly following
receipt of an invoice that reasonably identifies the relevant expenses and the amounts
thereof, any out of pocket expenses incurred by the Issuer in connection with the Bonds,
the Indenture, this Regulatory Agreement or the Loan Agreement, including but not
limited to any costs related to the Focus Program.
(e) The rent limits set forth in Sections 6(b) and 6(f) shall apply to all Low Income
Units. In addition, the rental payments paid by Low Income Tenants for the Low
Income Units shall not exceed Affordable Rents.
(f) The Borrower will accept as tenants, on the same basis as all other prospective
tenants, persons who are recipients of federal certificates for rent subsidies pursuant to
the existing program under Section 8 of the Act, or its successor. The Borrower shall not
apply selection criteria to Section 8 certificate or voucher holders that is more
burdensome than criteria applied to all other prospective tenants, nor shall the Borrower
apply or permit the application of management policies or lease provisions with respect
to the Project which have the effect of precluding occupancy of units by such
prospective tenants.
(g) The Borrower shall submit to the Issuer: (i) rent rolls and other information
required by the Focus Program on a quarterly basis as specified in Section 4(e), and (ii)
within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a written request, any other information or
completed forms requested by the Issuer in order to comply with reporting
requirements of the Internal Revenue Service or the State.
(h) The Borrower shall pay to the Issuer, to the extent not paid pursuant to the
Loan Agreement or the Indenture, all of the amounts required by Section 3.2 of (and
otherwise under) the Loan Agreement and shall indemnify the Issuer as provided in
Section 9 hereof and Section 5.19 of the Loan Agreement.

(i) The Issuer may, at its option and at its expense, at any time appoint an
Administrator to administer this Agreement or any provision hereof and to monitor
performance by the Borrower of all or of any of the terms, provisions and requirements
hereof. Following any such appointment, the Borrower shall comply with any request 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 Project and the books and records with respect thereto available for inspection
by such administrator as an agent of the Issuer.
(j) The Borrower shall submit its written management policies with respect to the
Project, if any, to the Issuer for its review, and shall amend such policies in 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 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 Project 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.
(k) The Borrower shall screen and select tenants for desirability and
creditworthiness at its discretion; provided, however, that the Borrower shall consider a
prospective tenant’s rent history for at least the one year period prior to application as
evidence of the tenant’s ability to pay the applicable rent.
(l) At least six months prior to the expiration of the Qualified Project Period the
Borrower shall provide by first-class mail, postage prepaid, a notice to all tenants in the
Low Income Units containing (i) the anticipated date of the expiration of the Qualified
Project Period, (ii) any anticipated rent increase upon the expiration of the Qualified
Project Period, (iii) a statement that a copy of such notice will be sent to the Issuer, and
(iv) a statement that a public hearing may be held by the Issuer on the issue and that the

hearing. The Borrower shall also file a copy of the above-described notice with the

(m) Notwithstanding Section 1461 of the Civil Code, the provisions of this
Section shall run with land and may be enforced either in law or in equity by any
resident, local agency, entity, or by any other person adversely affected by the
Borrower’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Section.
(n) The Borrower shall not participate in any refunding of the Bonds by means of
the issuance of bonds or other obligations by any governmental body other than the
Issuer.

(p) The requirements of Section 6 and this Section 4A shall be in effect for the
Qualified Project 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 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 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 Trustee, in order to insure that the requirements and
restrictions of this Regulatory Agreement will be binding upon all owners of the Project,
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 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 Act applicable to the Project.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower agrees as follows:
(a) As provided in Section 52080(a)(1)(B) of the Act, forty percent (40%) or more
of the aggregate of the completed residential units in the Project 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 Act (it being acknowledged that units required to be set aside
for Low Income Tenants pursuant to 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
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 963
-16-
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 Act, the Project 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 Act or regulations adopted or documents executed
pursuant to the 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 Project as
contemplated by the Borrower’s partnership agreement.
(f) Following the expiration or termination of the Qualified Project 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 Project, or the purposes or special programs of the
Project.
(3) Thirty years after the date of commencement of the Qualified Project
Period.

(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 Project 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, construction and operation of the
Project 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:

persons or families whose income is at 60% or below of the Area Median Gross Income.
(b) A minimum of $9,922,660 of public funds will be expended for the Project.
The Borrower will promptly provide any information reasonably requested by the Issuer

Section 5144 of Article 11 of the CDLAC regulations.

Section 8. Modification of Covenants. The Borrower and the Issuer hereby agree as
follows:
(a) To the extent any amendments to the Act, the Regulations or the Code shall,
in the written opinion of Bond Counsel filed with the Issuer, the Trustee and the
Borrower, impose requirements upon the ownership or operation of the Project more
restrictive than those imposed by this Regulatory Agreement, and if such requirements
are applicable to the Project, this Regulatory Agreement shall be deemed to be
automatically amended to impose such additional or more restrictive requirements.
(b) To the extent that the Act, the Regulations or the Code, or any amendments
thereto, shall, in the written opinion of Bond Counsel filed with the Issuer, the Trustee
and the Borrower, impose requirements upon the ownership or operation of the Project
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 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 Trustee 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 Trustee 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 Trustee 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 Trustee, 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 Trustee, and each of their respective past, present and

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:

Agreement 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, servants,

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
Trustee 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 Project;
(iv) any violation of Section 5.7 of the Loan Agreement;
(v) the defeasance and/or redemption, in whole or in part, of the Bonds;

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 Trustee’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 Trustee 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
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 967
-20-
of the foregoing indemnification of the Issuer or any of its officers, Boardmembers, 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 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 Trustee 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 construction of the Project, all for the
purpose, among others, of inducing the Borrower to acquire, construct and operate the Project.
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 Project 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 Trustee may rely upon statements
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 968
-21-
and certificates of the Low Income Tenants and upon audits of the books and records of the
Borrower pertaining to the Project. In addition, the Issuer and the Trustee 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 Trustee 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 Trustee 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 Project. For the Qualified Project Period, the
Borrower shall not, except as provided below and in accordance with the Loan Agreement and
the Mortgage, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Project, 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 Project
shall comply with the provisions of this 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 Project 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 Project
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 Trustee 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 Trustee of all fees and/or expenses then currently due and
payable to the Issuer and Trustee; (E) satisfaction of such other conditions or matters as are set
forth in the Loan Agreement and the Mortgage; and (F) such other conditions are met as the
Issuer may reasonably impose. The Issuer hereby consents to a transfer of the Project 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
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 969
-22-
disposition of the Project 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 Project. 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
Project. Any transfer of the Project 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 Project 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
Mortgage 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 Project, or (b) a foreclosure or deed
in lieu of foreclosure by the Trustee whereby the Trustee or a purchaser at a foreclosure sale
becomes the owner of the Project, and nothing contained in this Section 12 shall otherwise affect
the right of the Trustee or a purchaser at a foreclosure sale to foreclose on the Project or to
accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure. The Issuer’s consent otherwise required by item (A) of the
preceding paragraph shall not be required in connection with any purchase of the Project by a
partner of the Borrower as allowed for in the Borrower’s partnership agreement, or a sale or
transfer of the Project to any wholly owned subsidiary of Eden Housing, Inc. 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) 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 Project Period, the Borrower shall not: (1) except pursuant to the
provisions of this Regulatory Agreement, the Loan Agreement and the Mortgage (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 Project in accordance with the terms of this Regulatory Agreement,
subordinate or encumber any of the Project 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 Project (except for apartment
leases); (2) demolish any part of the Project or substantially subtract from any real or personal
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 970
-23-
property of the Project, except to the extent that what is removed is replaced with comparable
property; or (3) permit the use of the dwelling accommodations of the Project 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 Project 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 Mortgage.
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 Trustee 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 Project 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 Project 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.
Section 14. Covenants to Run With the Land. Notwithstanding Section 1461 of the
California Civil Code, the Borrower hereby subjects the Project 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 Project; 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 Project 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 Project is rendered less valuable thereby. The
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 971
-24-
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 Project 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 Project in order to establish and carry out a common
plan for the use of the site on which the Project 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 Trustee 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 Trustee, 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 Trustee 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 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 Trustee 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 Trustee
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:
(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 Trustee hereunder;
(ii) have access to and inspect, examine and make copies of all of the books and
records of the Borrower pertaining to the Project;
(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;
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 972
-25-
(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
Project 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 Trustee 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 Trustee 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 Trustee.
All fees, costs and expenses of the Trustee 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
Mortgage or any like encumbrance upon the Project or any portion of either thereof given in
good faith and for value.
Section 18. References to Trustee. After the date on which no Bonds remain outstanding
under the Indenture, all references to the Trustee in this Regulatory Agreement shall be deemed
references to the Issuer.
Section 19. Recording and Filing. (a) The Borrower shall cause this Regulatory
Agreement and all amendments and supplements hereto to be recorded and filed in the real
property records of the County and in such other places as the Issuer or the Trustee may
reasonably request. The Borrower shall pay all fees and charges incurred in connection with any
such recording.
(b) The Borrower and the Issuer will file of record such other documents and take such
other steps as are necessary, in the written opinion of Bond Counsel filed with the Issuer and
the Trustee, in order to insure that the requirements and restrictions of this Regulatory
Agreement will be binding upon all owners of the Project.
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 973
-26-
(c) The Borrower hereby covenants to include or reference the requirements and
restrictions contained in this Regulatory Agreement in any documents transferring any interest
in the Project to another person (other than in any document granting a security interest to the
Trustee and, provided, however, that no such assignment shall be required in connection with
the transfer of the Project to the Trustee or to the Bondholders by foreclosure, deed in lieu of
foreclosure or comparable conversion of the Loan) to the end that such transferee has notice of,
and is bound by, such restrictions, and to obtain the agreement from any transferee to abide by
all requirements and restrictions of this Regulatory Agreement.
Section 20. Payment of Administration Fees. Notwithstanding any prepayment of the
Loan and notwithstanding a discharge of the Indenture, throughout the term of this Regulatory
Agreement, the Borrower shall continue to pay to the Issuer its fees described in Section 4.A.(d)
and in the event of default, to the Administrator, the Issuer and to the Trustee reasonable
compensation for any services rendered by either of them hereunder and reimbursement for all
expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection therewith.
Section 21. Governing Law. This Regulatory Agreement shall be governed by the laws
of the State of California.
Section 22. Amendments; Waivers. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8 above,
this Regulatory Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument executed by the
parties hereto or their successors in title, and duly recorded in the real property records of the
County, and only upon receipt by the Issuer of an opinion from Bond Counsel that such
amendment will not adversely affect the Tax-Exempt status of interest on the Bonds and is not
contrary to the provisions of the Act.
(b) Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, the Issuer and the
Borrower hereby agree to amend this Regulatory Agreement to the extent required, in the
opinion of Bond Counsel, in order that interest on the Bonds remain Tax-Exempt. The party
requesting such amendment shall notify the other party to this Regulatory Agreement of the
proposed amendment, with a copy of such requested amendment to Bond Counsel and a
request that such Bond Counsel render to the Issuer an opinion as to the effect of such proposed
amendment upon the Tax-Exempt status of interest on the Bonds. This provision shall not be
subject to any provision of any other agreement requiring any party hereto to obtain the consent
of any other person in order to amend this Regulatory Agreement.
(c) Any waiver of, or consent to, any condition under this Regulatory Agreement must
be expressly made in writing.
Section 23. Notices. Any notice required to be given hereunder shall be made in writing
and shall be given by personal delivery, overnight delivery, certified or registered mail, postage
prepaid, return receipt requested, or by telecopy, in each case at the respective addresses set
forth below or at such other addresses as may be specified in writing by the parties hereto.

Section 25. Multiple Counterparts. This Regulatory Agreement may be simultaneously
executed in multiple counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument,
and each of which shall be deemed to be an original.
Section 26. Third Party Beneficiaries; Enforcement. The Trustee, the Servicer, the
Investor Limited Partner and CDLAC are intended to be and shall each be a third party
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
performance or other available remedy at law or in equity in accordance with Section 17 hereof,
provided that any such action or remedy shall not materially adversely affect the interests and
rights of the owners of the Bonds. Pursuant to Section 52080(k) of the Act, the requirements of
Section 6 may be enforced either in law or in equity by any resident, local agency, entity, or by
any other person adversely affected by the Borrower’s failure to comply with the requirements
of that Section.
Section 27. The Trustee. The Trustee shall be entitled, but shall have no duty, to act
with respect to enforcement of the Borrower’s performance hereunder. The Trustee, either on
its own behalf or as the agent of and on behalf of the Issuer, may, in its sole discretion, act
hereunder and any act required to be performed by the Issuer as herein provided shall be
deemed taken if such act is performed by the Trustee. In connection with any such
performance, all provisions of the Indenture relating to the rights, privileges, powers and
protections of the Trustee shall apply with equal force and effect to all actions taken (or omitted
to be taken) by the Trustee in connection with this Regulatory Agreement. Neither the Trustee
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 Trustee 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 Trustee 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
Trustee shall have no further rights, duties or responsibilities under this Regulatory Agreement,
and all references to the Trustee 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 Mortgage 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;
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 976
-29-
(b) interfere with or attempt to interfere with or influence the exercise by the
Trustee of any of its rights under the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, the
Trustee remedial rights under the Loan Documents upon the occurrence of an event of
default by the Borrower under the Loan; or
(c) upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Loan Agreement, take
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 Servicer, 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 Mortgage or cause the Trustee 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 Trustee 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 Servicer 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 Project in accordance with the requirements of the Code and the
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, construction, 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 Project or otherwise.
Section 29. Limitation on Borrower Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision or
obligation to the contrary contained in this Regulatory Agreement, and except for the
Borrower’s obligations under Section 9 of this Regulatory Agreement (which are not subject to
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 Trustee or the
Issuer and their successors and assigns, is limited to the Borrower’s interest in the Project, the
revenues therefrom, including the amount held in the funds and accounts created under the
Indenture and the Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement), or any rights of the
Borrower under any guarantees relating to the Project, and such persons and entities shall look
exclusively thereto, or to such other security as may 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
July 10, 2012 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 977
-30-
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 Project 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 interest in the Project, this Regulatory Agreement,
amounts held in the funds and accounts created under the Indenture and the Loan Documents
(as defined in the Loan Agreement), any rights of the Borrower under the Indenture and the
Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other documents relating to the
Bonds or any rights of the Borrower under any guarantees relating to the Project), its partners,
members, successors, transferees or assigns and each their respective officers, directors,
employees, partners, agents, heirs and personal representatives, as the case may be, in any
