( ADMSP) FOR THE OPERATION OF A SCULPTURE PARK IN ALTOS DEL MAR PARK PURSUNAT TO REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS NO. 02 -07/08 (THE AGREEMENT) Dear Mrs. Saile: As you know, at its regular meeting on July 13, 2011, the Mayor and City Commission approved Resolution No. 2011- 277701, which approved the above referenced Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement (a copy of which is also attached as Exhibit "A" hereto). The original Amendment No. 2, as presented to the City Commission, included a recital which had ADMSP acknowledging that, absent the City's approval of the subject Amendment (which, among other things, granted ADMSP an extension within which to obtain its Full Building Permit for the Proposed Improvements that it is required to construct under the Agreement), ADMSP would be in default under its Agreement. At the request of ADMSP that such recital not be included within the formal language of the Amendment itself, the Commission agreed to delete such language and, rather, have ADMSP acknowledge same via sidebar letter. Accordingly, this letter, which also serves to transmit the final version of Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement, as amended and as approved by the City Commission, contains ADMSP's acknowledgement, concurrent with acknowledgement of receipt of the final Amendment, that but for the City's approval of the subject Amendment No. 2, ADMSP would have been in default of its contractual obligations under the Agreement. In order to finalize this matter, please print out and execute three (3) original copies of (i) this sidebar letter, and (ii) the accompanying Amendment No. 2, and return the full packet to my 1700 Convention Center Drive -- Fourth Floor -- Miami Beach, Florida 33139 .

You will find our redlined markup attached. Specifically, our earlier redline to you noted our objection to the paragraph re ADMSP's "acknowledgment." As I noted at the hearing without response by the Commission, I am not aware of anything else that the City can probably do with the property under its restricted status, we have heard of no alternative proposals from anyone, and our status to date does not preclude anyone's present use in any way (volleyball court or otherwise). In any event, the default provisions should certainly be enough without this superfluous language. We agree that an AE contract needs to be signed and funds need to be in the ADMSP account to cover it by September 14, but are not aware of any basis or effect of a "separate" account solely for those payments. I am not aware of any other major expendituresgoing forward to obtaining the permit. On page 3, you inadvertently left language re sworn statements. That's really about it! We await receipt of the "side" letter you were sending. Thank you for all your help.
