APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Conservation and Development Department Interim Director, or designee, to
execute an Omnibus Assignment and First Amendment to the HOME Loan Agreement with Shelter Inc. of Contra
Costa County for The Landings (935 East Street) apartment project in Pittsburg.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No General Fund impact. 100% Federal funds will be used, HOME funds are provided to the County on a formula
allocation basis through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Community Development Block
Grant funds will be used to cover the minor staff costs associated with assuming the loan.
BACKGROUND:
Shelter Inc of Contra Costa County (Shelter Inc.) owns an eight-unit apartment building located at 935 East Street in
Pittsburg. On September 12, 1994, the County loaned Shelter Inc. $200,000 in Housing Opportunities for Persons
with HIV/AIDs (HOPWA) funds to acquire and rehabilitate the property. On December 21, 1994, the County,
through a program administered by the Housing Authority of Contra Costa County, loaned Shelter Inc. $125,030 in
HOME Investment Partnerships Act (HOME) funds to rehabilitate the same property.
DCD subgranted HOME funds to the Housing Authority in the early 1990's to fund small loans to rehabilitate small
rental projects. This loan to Shelter Inc. is the only remaining HOME loan made by the Housing Authority.

Costa
County
Subject:Approval of Omnibus Assignment and First Amendment for The Landings apartment project in Pittsburg
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
HOME and HOPWA grant funds are provided by the County to subrecipients as loans rather than subgrants. The
reasons for this approach are: (1) The County may receive a small annual loan payment when properties have
excess cash flow after paying operating expenses, and (2) If the owner defaults on any of its obligations, the
County will be included in negotiations to resolve the default and will have an opportunity to help preserve its
affordable housing.
The HOPWA loan has a 40 year term with payment due in 2034. The HOME loan has a 20 year term with
payment due in December 2014. Shelter Inc. has requested an extension of the HOME loan term to match the
HOPWA term. This request is consistent with current County policy in which loans to affordable housing
developers are deferred for up to 55 years.
In order to preserve this property as affordable housing, staff recommends that the HOME Loan Agreement be
assigned from the Housing Authority to the County, which will allow DCD to amend the HOME loan terms to
match the HOPWA terms.
The HOPWA loan has an initial term of 40 years. The initial term of the HOPWA loan may be extended for an
additional 20 years. The HOME loan has a 20-year term, with payment due in December 2014. Shelter Inc. has
requested an extension of the HOME loan term to match the term of the HOPWA loan. Allowing the loans to be
coterminous will facilitate loan administration.
In order to preserve this property as affordable housing, staff recommends that the HOME Loan Agreement be
assigned from the Housing Authority to the County and that the term of the HOME loan be amended to match the
term of the HOPWA loan.
County Counsel has approved to form the following documents:
Omnibus Assignment and First Amendment HOME Rehabilitation Loan Agreement
First Amended and Restated Promissory Note
Amended and Restated Deed of Trust with Assignment of Rents, Security Agreement, and Fixture Filing
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the term of the HOME loan is not extended, Shelter Inc. will be in default and would have to sell the property to
repay the loan, which could result in the loss of eight units of affordable housing for persons with HIV/AIDs.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
None.

ARTICLE 2
MAINTENANCE AND MODIFICATION OF THE PROPERTY
AND SECURITY
Section 2.1 Maintenance and Modification of the Property by Trustor.
The Trustor agrees that at all times prior to full payment and performance of the Secured
Obligations, the Trustor will, at the Trustor's own expense, maintain, preserve and keep the
Security or cause the Security to be maintained and preserved in good condition. The Trustor
will from time to time make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements and renewals deemed
proper and necessary by it. The Beneficiary has no responsibility in any of these matters or for
the making of improvements or additions to the Security.
Trustor agrees to pay fully and discharge (or cause to be paid fully and discharged) all
claims for labor done and for material and services furnished in connection with the Security,
diligently to file or procure the filing of a valid notice of cessation upon the event of a cessation
of labor on the work or construction on the Security for a continuous period of thirty (30) days or
more, and to take all other reasonable steps to forestall the assertion of claims of lien against the
Security or any part thereof. Trustor irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Beneficiary
as its agent (said agency being coupled with an interest) with the authority, but without any
obligation, to file for record any notices of completion or cessation of labor or any other notice
that Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable to protect its interest in and to the Security or the
Loan Documents; provided, however, that Beneficiary exercises its rights as agent of Trustor
only in the event that Trustor fails to take, or fails to diligently continue to take, those actions as
hereinbefore provided.
Upon demand by Beneficiary, Trustor shall make or cause to be made such demands or
claims as Beneficiary specifies upon laborers, materialmen, subcontractors or other persons who
have furnished or claim to have furnished labor, services or materials in connection with the
Security. Nothing herein contained requires Trustor to pay any claims for labor, materials or
services which Trustor in good faith disputes and is diligently contesting provided that Trustor
shall, within thirty (30) days after the filing of any claim of lien, record in the Office of the
Recorder of Contra Costa County, a surety bond in an amount 1 and 1/2 times the amount of
such claim item to protect against a claim of lien.
Section 2.2 Granting of Easements.
Trustor may not grant easements, licenses, rights-of-way or other rights or privileges in
the nature of easements with respect to any property or rights included in the Security except
those required or desirable for installation and maintenance of public utilities including, without
limitation, water, gas, electricity, sewer, telephone and telegraph, or those required by law, and
as approved, in writing, by Beneficiary.
Section 2.3 Assignment of Rents.
As part of the consideration for the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, Trustor hereby
absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Beneficiary all the rents and revenues of
the Property including those now due, past due, or to become due by virtue of any lease or other
4
agreement for the occupancy or use of all or any part of the Property, regardless of to whom the
rents and revenues of the Property are payable, subject to the rights of senior lenders that are
approved by the Beneficiary pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Trustor hereby authorizes
Beneficiary or Beneficiary's agents to collect the aforesaid rents and revenues and hereby directs
each tenant of the Property to pay such rents to Beneficiary or Beneficiary's agents; provided,
however, that prior to written notice given by Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor of
any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents, Trustor shall collect and receive
all rents and revenues of the Property as trustee for the benefit of Beneficiary and Trustor to
apply the rents and revenues so collected to the Secured Obligations with the balance, so long as
no such breach has occurred and is continuing, to the account of Trustor, it being intended by
Trustor and Beneficiary that this assignment of rents constitutes an absolute assignment and not
an assignment for additional security only. Upon delivery of written notice by Beneficiary to
Trustor of the breach by Trustor of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan
Documents, and without the necessity of Beneficiary entering upon and taking and maintaining
full control of the Property in person, by agent or by a court-appointed receiver, Beneficiary shall
immediately be entitled to possession of all rents and revenues of the Property as specified in this
Section 2.3 as the same becomes due and payable, including but not limited to, rents then due
and unpaid, and all such rents will immediately upon delivery of such notice be held by Trustor
as trustee for the benefit of Beneficiary only; provided, however, that the written notice by
Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor contains a statement that Beneficiary exercises its
rights to such rents. Trustor agrees that commencing upon delivery of such written notice of
Trustor's breach by Beneficiary to Trustor, each tenant of the Property shall make such rents
payable to and pay such rents to Beneficiary or Beneficiary's agents on Beneficiary's written
demand to each tenant therefor, delivered to each tenant personally, by mail or by delivering
such demand to each rental unit, without any liability on the part of said tenant to inquire further
as to the existence of a default by Trustor.
Trustor hereby covenants that Trustor has not executed any prior assignment of said
rents, other than as security to senior lenders, that Trustor has not performed, and will not
perform, any acts or has not executed and will not execute, any instrument which would prevent
Beneficiary from exercising its rights under this Section 2.3, and that at the time of execution of
this Deed of Trust, there has been no anticipation or prepayment of any of the rents of the
Property for more than two (2) months prior to the due dates of such rents. Trustor covenants
that Trustor will not hereafter collect or accept payment of any rents of the Property more than
two (2) months prior to the due dates of such rents. Trustor further covenants that, so long as the
Secured Obligations are outstanding, Trustor will execute and deliver to Beneficiary such further
assignments of rents and revenues of the Property as Beneficiary may from time to time request.
Upon Trustor's breach of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents,
Beneficiary may in person, by agent or by a court-appointed receiver, regardless of the adequacy
of Beneficiary's security, enter upon and take and maintain full control of the Property in order to
perform all acts necessary and appropriate for the operation and maintenance thereof including,
but not limited to, the execution, cancellation or modification of leases, the collection of all rents
and revenues of the Property, the making of repairs to the Property and the execution or
termination of contracts providing for the management or maintenance of the Property, all on
such terms as are deemed best to protect the security of this Deed of Trust. In the event
Beneficiary elects to seek the appointment of a receiver for the Property upon Trustor's breach of
5
any covenant or agreement of Trustor in this Deed of Trust, Trustor hereby expressly consents to
the appointment of such receiver. Beneficiary or the receiver will be entitled to receive a
reasonable fee for so managing the Property.
All rents and revenues collected subsequent to delivery of written notice by Beneficiary
to Trustor of the breach by Trustor of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan
Documents are to be applied first to the costs, if any, of taking control of and managing the
Property and collecting the rents, including, but not limited to, attorney's fees, receiver's fees,
premiums on receiver's bonds, costs of repairs to the Property, premiums on insurance policies,
taxes, assessments and other charges on the Property, and the costs of discharging any obligation
or liability of Trustor as lessor or landlord of the Property and then to the sums secured by this
deed of Trust. Beneficiary or the receiver is to have access to the books and records used in the
operation and maintenance of the Property and will be liable to account only for those rents
actually received. Beneficiary is not liable to Trustor, anyone claiming under or through Trustor
or anyone having an interest in the Property by reason of anything done or left undone by
Beneficiary under this Section 2.3.
If the rents of the Property are not sufficient to meet the costs, if any, of taking control of
and managing the Property and collecting the rents, any funds expended by Beneficiary for such
purposes will become part of the Secured Obligations pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof. Unless
Beneficiary and Trustor agree in writing to other terms of payment, such amounts are payable by
Trustor to Beneficiary upon notice from Beneficiary to Trustor requesting payment thereof and
will bear interest from the date of disbursement at the rate stated in Section 3.3.
If the Beneficiary or the receiver enters upon and takes and maintains control of the
Property, neither that act nor any application of rents as provided herein will cure or waive any
default under this Deed of Trust or invalidate any other right or remedy available to Beneficiary
under applicable law or under this Deed of Trust. This assignment of rents of the Property will
terminate at such time as this Deed of Trust ceases to secure the Secured Obligations.
ARTICLE 3
TAXES AND INSURANCE; ADVANCES
Section 3.1 Taxes, Other Governmental Charges and Utility Charges.
Trustor shall pay, or cause to be paid, prior to the date of delinquency, all taxes,
assessments, charges and levies imposed by any public authority or utility company that are or
may become a lien affecting the Security or any part thereof; provided, however, that Trustor is
not required to pay and discharge any such tax, assessment, charge or levy so long as (a) the
legality thereof is promptly and actively contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings,
and (b) Trustor maintains reserves adequate to pay any liabilities contested pursuant to this
Section 3.1. With respect to taxes, special assessments or other similar governmental charges,
Trustor shall pay such amount in full prior to the attachment of any lien therefor on any part of
the Security; provided, however, if such taxes, assessments or charges can be paid in
installments, Trustor may pay in such installments. Except as provided in clause (b) of the first
sentence of this paragraph, the provisions of this Section 3.1 may not be construed to require that
6
Trustor maintain a reserve account, escrow account, impound account or other similar account
for the payment of future taxes, assessments, charges and levies.
In the event that Trustor fails to pay any of the items required by this Section to be paid
by Trustor, Beneficiary may (but is under no obligation to) pay the same, after the Beneficiary
has notified the Trustor of such failure to pay and the Trustor fails to fully pay such items within
seven (7) business days after receipt of such notice. Any amount so advanced therefor by
Beneficiary, together with interest thereon from the date of such advance at the maximum rate
permitted by law, will become part of the Secured Obligations secured hereby, and Trustor
agrees to pay all such amounts.
Section 3.2 Provisions Respecting Insurance.
Trustor agrees to provide insurance conforming in all respects to that required under the
Loan Documents during the course of construction and following completion, and at all times
until all amounts secured by this Deed of Trust have been paid, all Secured Obligations secured
hereunder have been fulfilled, and this Deed of Trust has been reconveyed.
All such insurance policies and coverages are to be maintained at Trustor's sole cost and
expense. Certificates of insurance for all of the above insurance policies, showing the same to be
in full force and effect, are to be delivered to the Beneficiary upon demand therefor at any time
prior to Trustor's satisfaction of the Secured Obligations.
Section 3.3 Advances.
In the event the Trustor fails to maintain the full insurance coverage required by this
Deed of Trust or fails to keep the Security in accordance with the Loan Documents, the
Beneficiary, after at least seven (7) days prior notice to Trustor, may (but is under no obligation
to) (i) take out the required policies of insurance and pay the premiums on the same, and (ii)
make any repairs or replacements that are necessary and provide for payment thereof. All
amounts so advanced by the Beneficiary will become part of the Secured Obligations (together
with interest as set forth below) and will be secured hereby, which amounts the Trustor agrees to
pay on the demand of the Beneficiary, and if not so paid, will bear interest from the date of the
advance at the Default Rate.
ARTICLE 4
DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION OR CONDEMNATION
Section 4.1 Awards and Damages.
Subject to the rights of senior lenders, all judgments, awards of damages, settlements and
compensation made in connection with or in lieu of (1) the taking of all or any part of or any
interest in the Property by or under assertion of the power of eminent domain, (2) any damage to
or destruction of the Property or any part thereof by insured casualty, and (3) any other injury or
damage to all or any part of the Property (collectively, the "Funds") are hereby assigned to and
are to be paid to the Beneficiary by a check made payable to the Beneficiary. The Beneficiary is
authorized and empowered (but not required) to collect and receive any Funds and is authorized
7
to apply them in whole or in part to any indebtedness or obligation secured hereby, in such order
and manner as the Beneficiary determines at its sole option. The Beneficiary is entitled to settle
and adjust all claims under insurance policies provided under this Deed of Trust and may deduct
and retain from the proceeds of such insurance the amount of all expenses incurred by it in
connection with any such settlement or adjustment. All or any part of the amounts so collected
and recovered by the Beneficiary may be released to Trustor upon such conditions as the
Beneficiary may impose for its disposition. Application of all or any part of the Funds collected
and received by the Beneficiary or the release thereof will not cure or waive any default under
this Deed of Trust. The rights of the Beneficiary under this Section 4.1 are subject to the rights
of any senior mortgage lender.
ARTICLE 5
AGREEMENTS AFFECTING THE PROPERTY; FURTHER
ASSURANCES; PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST

In the event of any Event of Default (as defined in Section 7.1) hereunder, and if the
Beneficiary employs attorneys or incurs other expenses for the collection of amounts due
hereunder or the enforcement of performance or observance of an obligation or agreement on the
part of the Trustor in this Deed of Trust, the Trustor agrees that it will, on demand therefor, pay
to the Beneficiary the reasonable fees of such attorneys and such other reasonable expenses so
incurred by the Beneficiary. Any such amounts paid by the Beneficiary will be added to the
Secured Obligations, and will bear interest from the date such expenses are incurred at the

California Commercial Code.
8
Section 5.5 Financing Statement.
The Trustor shall execute and deliver to the Beneficiary such financing statements
pursuant to the appropriate statutes, and any other documents or instruments as are required to
convey to the Beneficiary a valid perfected security interest in the Security. The Trustor shall
perform all acts that the Beneficiary reasonably requests so as to enable the Beneficiary to
maintain a valid perfected security interest in the Security in order to secure the payment of the
Note in accordance with its terms. The Beneficiary is authorized to file a copy of any such
financing statement in any jurisdiction(s) as it deems appropriate from time to time in order to
protect the security interest established pursuant to this instrument.

assigns, and all persons claiming under or through them, that there will be no discrimination
against or segregation of, any person or group of persons on account of race, color, creed,
religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin or ancestry in the sale, lease,
sublease, transfer, use, occupancy, tenure or enjoyment of the Security, nor will the Trustor itself
or any person claiming under or through it establish or permit any such practice or practices of
discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number, use or occupancy
of tenants, lessees, subtenants, sublessees or vendees in the Security. The foregoing covenants
run with the land.

representation of warranty by or covenant of Trustor in this Article. Such indemnity must
include, without limitation: (x) all consequential damages; (y) the costs of any required or
necessary investigation, repair, cleanup or detoxification of the Property and the preparation and
implementation of any closure, remedial or other required plans; and (z) all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection with clauses (x) and (y), including but not
limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and consultant fees. This indemnification applies whether
or not any government agency has issued a cleanup order. Losses, claims, costs, suits, liability,
and expenses covered by this indemnification provision include, but are not limited to: (1) losses
attributable to diminution in the value of the Property; (2) loss or restriction of use of rentable
10
space on the Property; (3) adverse effect on the marketing of any rental space on the Property;
and (4) penalties and fines levied by, and remedial or enforcement actions of any kind issued by
any regulatory agency (including but not limited to the costs of any required testing, remediation,
repair, removal, cleanup or detoxification of the Property and surrounding properties). This
obligation to indemnify will survive reconveyance of this Deed of Trust and will not be
diminished or affected in any respect as a result of any notice, disclosure, knowledge, if any, to
or by Beneficiary of Hazardous Materials.
Without Beneficiary's prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld,
Trustor may not take any remedial action in response to the presence of any Hazardous Materials
on, under or about the Property, nor enter into any settlement agreement, consent decree, or other
compromise in respect to any Hazardous Material Claims, which remedial action, settlement,
consent decree or compromise might, in Beneficiary's reasonable judgment, impairs the value of
the Beneficiary's security hereunder; provided, however, that Beneficiary's prior consent is not
necessary in the event that the presence of Hazardous Materials on, under, or about the Property
either poses an immediate threat to the health, safety or welfare of any individual or is of such a
nature that an immediate remedial response is necessary and it is not reasonably possible to
obtain Beneficiary's consent before taking such action, provided that in such event Trustor
notifies Beneficiary as soon as practicable of any action so taken. Beneficiary agrees not to
withhold its consent, where such consent is required hereunder, if (i) a particular remedial action
is ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction; (ii) Trustor will or may be subjected to civil or
criminal sanctions or penalties if it fails to take a required action; (iii) Trustor establishes to the
reasonable satisfaction of Beneficiary that there is no reasonable alternative to such remedial
action which would result in less impairment of Beneficiary's security hereunder; or (iv) the
action has been agreed to by Beneficiary.
The Trustor hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Article is intended as the
Beneficiary's written request for information (and the Trustor's response) concerning the
environmental condition of the Property as required by California Code of Civil Procedure
Section 726.5, and (ii) each representation and warranty in this Deed of Trust or any of the other
Loan Documents (together with any indemnity applicable to a breach of any such representation
and warranty) with respect to the environmental condition of the property is intended by the
Beneficiary and the Trustor to be an "environmental provision" for purposes of California Code
of Civil Procedure Section 736.
In the event that any portion of the Property is determined to be "environmentally
impaired" (as that term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(e)(3) or to
be an "affected parcel" (as that term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section
726.5(e)(1), then, without otherwise limiting or in any way affecting the Beneficiary's or the
Trustee's rights and remedies under this Deed of Trust, the Beneficiary may elect to exercise its
rights under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(a) to (1) waive its lien on such
environmentally impaired or affected portion of the Property and (2) exercise (a) the rights and
remedies of an unsecured creditor, including reduction of its claim against the Trustor to
judgment, and (b) any other rights and remedies permitted by law. For purposes of determining
the Beneficiary's right to proceed as an unsecured creditor under California Code of Civil
Procedure Section 726.5(a), the Trustor will be deemed to have willfully permitted or acquiesced
in a release or threatened release of hazardous materials, within the meaning of California Code
11
of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(d)(1), if the release or threatened release of hazardous materials
was knowingly or negligently caused or contributed to by any lessee, occupant, or user of any
portion of the Property and the Trustor knew or should have known of the activity by such
lessee, occupant, or user which caused or contributed to the release or threatened release. All
costs and expenses, including (but not limited to) attorneys' fees, incurred by the Beneficiary in
connection with any action commenced under this paragraph, including any action required by
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(b) to determine the degree to which the
Property is environmentally impaired, plus interest thereon at the Default Rate until paid, will be
added to the indebtedness secured by this Deed of Trust and will be due and payable to the
Beneficiary upon its demand made at any time following the conclusion of such action.
ARTICLE 7
EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
Section 7.1 Events of Default.
The following are events of default following the expiration of any applicable notice and
cure periods (each an "Event of Default"): (i) failure to make any payment to be paid by Trustor
under the Loan Documents; (ii) failure to observe or perform any of Trustor's other covenants,
agreements or obligations under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the
provisions concerning discrimination; (iii) failure to make any payment or observe or perform
any of Trustor's other covenants, agreements, or obligations under any Secured Obligations,
which default is not cured within the times and in the manner provided therein; and (iv) failure to
make any payments or observe or perform any of Trustor's other covenants, agreements or
obligations under any other debt instrument or regulatory agreement secured by the Property,
which default is not cured within the time and in the manner provided therein.
Section 7.2 Acceleration of Maturity.
If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then at the option of the
Beneficiary, the amount of any payment related to the Event of Default and all unpaid Secured
Obligations are immediately due and payable, and no omission on the part of the Beneficiary to
exercise such option when entitled to do so may be construed as a waiver of such right.
Section 7.3 The Beneficiary's Right to Enter and Take Possession.
If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Beneficiary may:
(a) Either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or
proceeding, or by a receiver appointed by a court, and without regard to the adequacy of its
security, enter upon the Property and take possession thereof (or any part thereof) and of any of
the Security, in its own name or in the name of Trustee, and do any acts that it deems necessary
or desirable to preserve the value or marketability of the Property, or part thereof or interest
therein, increase the income therefrom or protect the security thereof. The entering upon and
taking possession of the Security will not cure or waive any Event of Default or Notice of Sale
(as defined in Section 7.3(c), below) hereunder or invalidate any act done in response to such
Event of Default or pursuant to such Notice of Sale, and, notwithstanding the continuance in
12
possession of the Security, Beneficiary will be entitled to exercise every right provided for in this
Deed of Trust, or by law upon occurrence of any Event of Default, including the right to exercise
the power of sale;
(b) Commence an action to foreclose this Deed of Trust as a mortgage,
appoint a receiver, or specifically enforce any of the covenants hereof;
(c) Deliver to Trustee a written declaration of an Event of Default and
demand for sale, and a written notice of default and election to cause Trustor's interest in the
Security to be sold ("Notice of Sale"), which notice Trustee or Beneficiary shall cause to be duly
filed for record in the Official Records of Contra Costa County; or
(d) Exercise all other rights and remedies provided herein, in the instruments
by which the Trustor acquires title to any Security, or in any other document or agreement now
or hereafter evidencing, creating or securing the Secured Obligations.
Section 7.4 Foreclosure By Power of Sale.
Should the Beneficiary elect to foreclose by exercise of the power of sale herein
contained, the Beneficiary shall deliver to the Trustee the Notice of Sale and shall deposit with
Trustee this Deed of Trust which is secured hereby (and the deposit of which will be deemed to
constitute evidence that the Secured Obligations are immediately due and payable), and such
receipts and evidence of any expenditures made that are additionally secured hereby as Trustee
may require.
(a) Upon receipt of the Notice of Sale from the Beneficiary, Trustee shall
cause to be recorded, published and delivered to Trustor such Notice of Sale as is then required
by law and by this Deed of Trust. Trustee shall, without demand on Trustor, after the lapse of
that amount of time as is then required by law and after recordation of such Notice of Sale as
required by law, sell the Security, at the time and place of sale set forth in the Notice of Sale,
whether as a whole or in separate lots or parcels or items, as Trustee deems expedient and in
such order as it determines, unless specified otherwise by the Trustor according to California
Civil Code Section 2924g(b), at public auction to the highest bidder, for cash in lawful money of
the United States payable at the time of sale. Trustee shall deliver to such purchaser or
purchasers thereof its good and sufficient deed or deeds conveying the property so sold, but
without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in such deed or any matters
of facts will be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including, without
limitation, Trustor, Trustee or Beneficiary, may purchase at such sale.
(b) After deducting all reasonable costs, fees and expenses of Trustee,
including costs of evidence of title in connection with such sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds
of sale to payment of: (i) the unpaid Principal amount of the Note; (ii) all other Secured
Obligations owed to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents; (iii) all other sums then secured
hereby; and (iv) the remainder, if any, to Trustor.
(c) Trustee may postpone sale of all or any portion of the Property by public
announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter, and without
13
further notice make such sale at the time fixed by the last postponement, or may, in its discretion,
give a new Notice of Sale.
Section 7.5 Receiver.
If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Beneficiary, as a matter of right and
without further notice to Trustor or anyone claiming under the Security, and without regard to
the then value of the Security or the interest of Trustor therein, may apply to any court having
jurisdiction to appoint a receiver or receivers of the Security (or a part thereof), and Trustor
hereby irrevocably consents to such appointment and waives further notice of any application
therefor. Any such receiver or receivers will have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in
like or similar cases, and all the powers and duties of Beneficiary in case of entry as provided
herein, and will continue as such and exercise all such powers until the date of confirmation of
sale of the Security, unless such receivership is sooner terminated.
Section 7.6 Remedies Cumulative.
No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Beneficiary by this Deed of
Trust is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such
right, power and remedy will be cumulative and concurrent and will be in addition to any other
right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.
Section 7.7 No Waiver.
(a) No delay or omission of the Beneficiary to exercise any right, power or
remedy accruing upon any Event of Default will exhaust or impair any such right, power or
remedy, and may not be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or acquiescence
therein; and every right, power and remedy given by this Deed of Trust to the Beneficiary may
be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expeditious by the Beneficiary.
Beneficiary's express or implied consent to breach, or waiver of, any obligation of the Trustor
hereunder will not be deemed or construed to be a consent to any subsequent breach, or further
waiver, of such obligation or of any other obligations of the Trustor hereunder. Failure on the
part of the Beneficiary to complain of any act or failure to act or to declare an Event of Default,
irrespective of how long such failure continues, will not constitute a waiver by the Beneficiary of
its right hereunder or impair any rights, power or remedies consequent on any Event of Default
by the Trustor.
(b) If the Beneficiary (i) grants forbearance or an extension of time for the
payment or performance of any Secured Obligation, (ii) takes other or additional security or the
payment of any sums secured hereby, (iii) waives or does not exercise any right granted in the
Loan Documents, (iv) releases any part of the Security from the lien of this Deed of Trust, or
otherwise changes any of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements in the Loan Documents,
(v) consents to the granting of any easement or other right affecting the Security, or (vi) makes or
consents to any agreement subordinating the lien hereof, any such act or omission will not
release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability under this Deed of Trust, or any
other obligation of the Trustor or any subsequent purchaser of the Security or any part thereof, or
any maker, co-signer, endorser, surety or guarantor (unless expressly released); nor will any such
act or omission preclude the Beneficiary from exercising any right, power or privilege herein
14
granted or intended to be granted in any Event of Default then made or of any subsequent Event
of Default, nor, except as otherwise expressly provided in an instrument or instruments executed
by the Beneficiary, will the lien of this Deed of Trust be altered thereby.
Section 7.8 Suits to Protect the Security.
The Beneficiary has the power to (a) institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as
it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Security and the rights of the
Beneficiary as may be unlawful or any violation of this Deed of Trust, (b) preserve or protect its
interest (as described in this Deed of Trust) in the Security, and (c) restrain the enforcement of or
compliance with any legislation or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be
unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the enforcement for compliance with such enactment,
rule or order would impair the Security thereunder or be prejudicial to the interest of the
Beneficiary.
Section 7.9 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.
In the case of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment, composition or other proceedings affecting the Trustor, its creditors or its property,
the Beneficiary, to the extent permitted by law, will be entitled to file such proofs of claim and
other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Beneficiary
allowed in such proceedings and for any additional amount that becomes due and payable by the
Trustor hereunder after such date.
Section 7.10 Waiver.
The Trustor waives presentment, demand for payment, notice of dishonor, notice of
protest and nonpayment, protest, notice of interest on interest and late charges, and diligence in
taking any action to collect any Secured Obligations or in proceedings against the Security, in
connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, endorsement or guaranty of this
Deed of Trust.

FIRST AMENDED AND RESTATED
PROMISSORY NOTE
(Rental Housing – 935 East Street, Pittsburg, California)
$125,030 Martinez, California
___________, 2014
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, SHELTER, Inc. of Contra Costa County, a
nonprofit public benefit corporation ("Borrower") hereby promises to pay to the order of the
County of Contra Costa, a political subdivision of the State of California ("Holder"), the
principal amount of One Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Thirty Dollars ($125,030) plus interest
thereon pursuant to Section 2 below.
This First Amended and Restated Promissory Note (“Note”) replaces in its entirety that
promissory note executed by Borrower in favor of Holder dated December 21, 1994 (the
"Original Note"). Upon execution of this Note by Borrower, the Original Note will be cancelled
and returned to Borrower.
All capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Note have the meanings set forth in the
Loan Agreement (as defined below).
1. Loan Agreement. This Note evidences Borrower's obligation to pay
Holder the principal amount of One Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Thirty Dollars ($125,030)
for the funds loaned to Borrower by Holder to finance the development of the Property pursuant
to the HOME Rehabilitation Loan Agreement between Borrower and Holder dated December
21, 1994 (the "Loan Agreement").
2. Interest.
(a) Subject to the provisions of Subsection (b) below, no interest will
accrue on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan.
(b) If a Default occurs, interest will accrue on all amounts due under
this Note at the default rate, which is the lesser of the maximum rate permitted by law and ten
percent (10%) per annum, until the Default is cured by Borrower or waived by Holder.
3. Term and Repayment Requirements. Principal and interest under this
Note is due and payable as set forth in the Loan Agreement. In any event, the unpaid principal
balance hereunder, together with any accrued interest thereon, is due and payable not later than
the HOPWA Loan Due Date.
1
4. No Assumption. This Note is not assumable by the successors and assigns
of Borrower without the prior written consent of Holder, except as provided in the Loan
Agreement.
5. Security. This Note, with interest, is secured by the Deed of Trust. Upon
execution, the Deed of Trust will be recorded in the official records of Contra Costa County,
California. The terms of the Deed of Trust are hereby incorporated into this Note and made a
part hereof.
6. Terms of Payment.
(a) Borrower shall make all payments due under this Note in currency
of the United States of America, to Holder at Department of Conservation and Development, 30
Muir Road, Martinez, California 94553, Attention: Affordable Housing Program Manager, or to
such other place as Holder may from time to time designate.
(b) All payments on this Note are without expense to Holder.
Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses, including re-conveyance fees and reasonable
attorney's fees of Holder, incurred in connection with the payment of this Note and the release of
any security hereof.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, or any
instrument securing the obligations of Borrower under this Note, if, for any reason whatsoever,
the payment of any sums by Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Note would result in the
payment of interest that exceeds the amount that Holder may legally charge under the laws of the
State of California, then the amount by which payments exceed the lawful interest rate will
automatically be deducted from the principal balance owing on this Note, so that in no event is
Borrower obligated under the terms of this Note to pay any interest that would exceed the lawful
rate.
(d) The obligations of Borrower under this Note are absolute and
Borrower waives any and all rights to offset, deduct or withhold any payments or charges due
under this Note for any reason whatsoever.
7. Default.
(a) Upon the occurrence of a Default, the entire unpaid principal
balance, together with all interest thereon, and together with all other sums then payable under
this Note and the Deed of Trust will, at the option of Holder, become immediately due and
payable without further demand.
(b) Holder's failure to exercise the remedy set forth in Subsection 7(a)
above or any other remedy provided by law upon the occurrence of a Default does not constitute
a waiver of the right to exercise any remedy at any subsequent time in respect to the same or any
other Default. The acceptance by Holder of any payment that is less than the total of all amounts
due and payable at the time of such payment does not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise
2
any of the foregoing remedies or options at that time or at any subsequent time, or nullify any
prior exercise of any such remedy or option, without the express consent of Holder, except as
and to the extent otherwise provided by law.
8. Waivers.
(a) Borrower hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and
demand, and notice of protest, notice of demand, notice of dishonor and notice of non-payment
of this Note. Borrower expressly agrees that this Note or any payment hereunder may be
extended from time to time, and that Holder may accept further security or release any security
for this Note, all without in any way affecting the liability of Borrower.
(b) Any extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment
hereof made by agreement of Holder with any person now or hereafter liable for payment of this
Note will not operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of
Borrower under this Note, either in whole or in part.
9. Miscellaneous Provisions.
(a) All notices to Holder or Borrower are to be given in the manner
and at the addresses set forth in the Loan Agreement, or to such addresses as Holder and
Borrower may therein designate.
(b) Borrower promises to pay all costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorney's fees, incurred by Holder in the enforcement of the provisions of this Note,
regardless of whether suit is filed to seek enforcement.
(c) This Note is governed by the laws of the State of California.
(d) The times for the performance of any obligations hereunder are to
be strictly construed, time being of the essence.
(e) This document, together with the Loan Agreement and the Deed of
Trust, contains the entire agreement between the parties as to the Loan. This Note may not be
modified except upon written consent of the parties.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower is executing this Note as of the day and year first
above written.

Rehabilitation Loan Agreement dated as of December 21, 1994 (the "Loan Agreement"),

Original Deed of Trust was recorded in the Official Records on December 22, 1994, as

HOPWA Loan and Regulatory Agreement dated as of September 12, 1994 (the “HOPWA Loan
Agreement”), pursuant to which the County loaned Borrower Two Hundred Thousand Dollars
($200,000) (the “HOPWA Loan”) for the acquisition and rehabilitation of the Property. Under
the terms of the HOPWA Loan Agreement, the HOPWA Loan is due and payable in full on
September 11, 2034, unless extended for an additional twenty years in accordance with the terms
of the HOPWA Loan Agreement (such date, the “HOPWA Loan Due Date”).
D. The Borrower has requested that the terms of the Loan be modified to cause the
Loan to be due on the HOPWA Loan Due Date. The County is willing to agree to the extension
of the Loan based on the terms set forth in this Agreement. To facilitate administration of the
Loan, the Housing Authority is assigning all of its interest in the Loan to the County.
1
E. To evidence the extension of the Loan, simultaneous with entering into this
Agreement, (i) the County is reconveying the Original Deed of Trust and Borrower is executing
a new deed of trust, and (iii) the County is cancelling the Original Note and Borrower is issuing a
first amended and restated promissory note.
