Subject:
Date: April 11, 2005
Attached is the latest draft of the 5th and Alton Development Agreement. The latest revised
draft is expected this week and will incorporate substantive changes to the following
sections within Exhibit E - Material Provisions of Declarations:
· Page 86, 4(c)(viii) - the underlined phrase "to the sole satisfaction of Developer"
will be amended to read "to mutual satisfaction ofthe parties."

this section discusses, in part, the requirement for the
Developer to provide an Extended Warranty pursuant to
Florida Statutes where a Condominium applies. The City
requested a condominium arrangement, as opposed to an "Air
Rights" deal, and agreed to treat the payment for the Extended
Warranty as an operating expense. The Developer, concerned
about the enforceability of this, requested punitive language be
added if the City tried to challenge this arrangement. Since
staff has objected to the punitive language, the Developer is
checking with the State for their recommendation as to how to
resolve. This appears to be an issue of how to draft the
language, as both parties agree on concept.
· Page 97 - Condemnation - this article will be amended to specifically reflect that the
City will receive the Fair Market Value at the 56% of Value
Rate, or the City's Contribution at 4% simple interest,
whichever is greater.
There are other minor language revisions that are anticipated in the final draft; the effect of
which is to clarify the business deal. It is expected that a Final Draft will be presented with
the agenda item later this week.
This is offered, however, to provide a preliminary copy of the Agreement due to its
complexity.

Plans, it being agreed however, that if Developer has complied with Section 18.2 (c) hereof,
City's failure to so notify Developer of its disapproval within such time period shall be deemed
to constitute City's conclusive approval of such Plans and Specifications; provided, however,
that if City shall notify Developer within ten (10) Business Days following its receipt of
Developer's request that the complexity of such changes necessitates an extension of such time
period to complete City's review, such period shall be extended to the date which is reasonably
and mutually agreed to by City and Developer, not to exceed thirty (30) days after City's receipt
of the proposed inconsistencies or modifications; provided, further, however, that City shall not
be responsible for, and shall not be deemed to have approved, any such material inconsistency or
modification that is not indicated as required by this Section 3.1 (a). Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, City shall not object to any modifications which are

notify Developer of its disapproval during such time period shall be deemed to constitute City's

Developer within ten (10) Business Days following its receipt that any of the proposed
modifications to the Plans and Specifications that the complexity of the proposed modifications
necessitates an extension of such time period to complete City's review, such period shall be

City reserves the right, at its sole cost and expense, to maintain one (1) on-site
representative (from City's Consultant, City or another entity designated by City) at the
Development Site to conduct inspections of the Development Site (provided, however, that City
shall be entitled to maintain additional on-site representatives from time to time to the extent
reasonably necessary to perform such inspections), and Developer agrees to provide access to the
Development Site, including, without limitation, access to inspect the Construction Work, the
preparation work and work in progress at the Development Site. No such inspection by the
City's on-site representatives shall impose upon City responsibility or liability for any failure by
Developer to observe any Requirements or safety practices in connection with such Construction
Work or constitute an acceptance of any work which does not comply with any Requirements or
the provisions of this Agreement, and no such inspection shall constitute an assumption by City
of any responsibility or liability for the performance of Developer's obligations hereunder, nor
any liability arising from the improper performance thereof. The City's on-site representatives
shall not interfere with any Construction Work being performed at the Development Site, shall
comply with all safety standards and other job-site rules and regulations of Developer and shall
visit the site at their sole risk. City's on-site representatives are inspectors only. The on-site

construction manager(s) or the General Contractor, the subcontractors or any other Person
involved in the Construction of the Project) as are reasonably necessary to enable such on-site
representatives to conduct their investigations, and in no event shall the on-site representatives
give directions to such Persons. Developer shall endeavor to provide reasonable prior notice to
City's on-site representatives of any regularly schedule construction meetings involving
representatives of Developer, any general contractor, the Project Architect, and/or the Project
engineer, and City's representatives shall be entitled to attend (but there shall be no obligation to

82-536 through 82-612 of the City Code, and as same is amended, is applicable to the Project.
(b) Developer shall request that, in consideration of Developer's providing the
substantial art work depicted on the approved Project Concept Plan by world renowned local
artist Romero Britto, and the Potamkin family's commitment to contribute to the City's Bass
Museum, the City Commission approve a resolution confirming that the requirements of the
AIPP legislation have been satisfied.
(c) In the event the City Commission determines that the AIPP legislation
requirements are not satisfied by the Romero Britto artwork, and the Potamkin family's
commitment to contribute to the Bass Museum, Developer shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement by written notice to City not later than the Outside Date (as defined in Section 2.11)
(and if Developer does not give notice of termination on or before such date, Developer shall be
deemed to have waived such right of termination and shall not thereafter be entitled to terminate
this Agreement pursuant to this Section 5.1).
Section 5.2 Prevailine: Wae:e.
Developer shall pay all Persons employed by it with respect to Construction of the

Wage Ordinance is applicable to the construction of the Project. Developer further agrees to
comply, and assure the compliance by the Contractor and any subcontractors with respect to
Construction of the Project, with the applicable employee protection requirements identified in
Section 24 of the FTA Master Agreement, to the extent applicable.
Section 5.3 FT A Requirements.
Developer recognizes that City may in its sole and absolute discretion pursue funding of
the eligible portions of City's Transit Facility Contribution from the FTA or another funding

Agreement or City's obligations hereunder. Developer agrees to use reasonable and good faith
efforts to comply with all currently effective FT A Requirements, including the requirements of
the existing FT A Master Agreement, but only with respect to the construction, use and operation
of the Transit Elements (and such obligations shall not terminate upon expiration of the Term

Recipient, Developer agrees to use reasonable and good faith efforts to comply with all FT A
Requirements and other requirements and responsibilities under federal law, regulation or
directive, but only to the extent applicable to the Transit Elements (and City shall provide
reasonable guidance and input to Developer in Developer's attempts to do so), and shall extend
the FT A Requirements as applicable to any and all contractors and subcontractors on the Project,
but only to the extent applicable to the Transit Elements. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Developer shall not be required to comply with FT A Requirements if such requirements are
more costly to comply with than what is contained in the Project Concept Plan unless City, at its

Act and shall, consistent with the City's FT A approved DBE plan, use reasonable efforts to
comply with the DBE requirements of the FTA Master Agreement based on up to 10% of an
assumed $9,500,000 City's Transit Facility Contribution (but in no event less than 5% of an

Developer shall also comply with any other requirements of the FT A Master Agreement at the
City's request and at the City's cost, and further provided, in respect of all FT A Requirements,
they are reasonably capable of being implemented without unusual delay and without materially
changing the character of the Project). Any costs incurred by Developer in complying with the
provisions of FT A that are the obligation of City shall be reimbursed to Developer by City within
30 days of invoicing, accompanied by reasonable substantiation. Anything in this Development
Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event of a conflict between FT A Requirements
and the provisions of this Development Agreement, the provisions of this Development
Agreement shall govern.

Elements component of the Project, and the creation of jobs for the City of Miami Beach
community.
Section 15.2 In furtherance of the foregoing, Developer covenants and agrees to include as an
initial occupant of the Retail Space a national or regional grocery store chain which shall initially
open for the operation of a grocery supermarket. Developer shall enter into a binding lease
("Grocery Lease") having a minimum term often (10) years for not less than 40,000 square feet
of Retail Area with a national or regional grocery supermarket which will unconditionally
(subject to customary contingencies for Substantial Completion and performance by Developer
of its construction obligations under the Grocery Lease) obligate the tenant to initially open for
business as a grocery supermarket in the entire leased premises upon Completion of the Project.
The Lease shall grant Developer the right to recapture the leased premises if the tenant ceases to
operate a grocery supermarket from the entire leased premises during the lease term, other than
temporarily for remodeling, reconstruction after casualty or condemnation, transfer of operations
in the case of an assignment or subletting to another operator or Unavoidable Delays. If the
tenant fails to open for business, or, after opening, ceases to operate a grocery supermarket from
the entire leased premises (for other than a permitted reason listed above in this Section 15.2),
Developer shall use diligent and good faith efforts to enter into a new lease with another national
or regional grocery supermarket for the same leased premises and for the same use (a
"Replacement Lease"). If Developer is unsuccessful in entering into a Replacement Lease,
Developer shall at its option either (A) pay to the City $55.00 per City Supermarket Space per
month (which amount will increase by 2.5% per annum starting at the time that the Contribution,
as defined in the Declaration, starts increasing) for each month commencing when, and only
during the time that, a replacement non-supermarket user is operating out of the space demised in
the Grocery Lease and continuing through the end of the tenth year from the commencement of
the lease term for the Grocery Lease (but any payments under this subparagraph (A) shall be
fully refunded to Developer if Developer subsequently exercises option (B) below) or (B)
purchase from City the City Supermarket Spaces pursuant to the closing procedure set forth in
Developer's right of first refusal paragraph 9 of the Declaration for a price equal to City's Transit
Facility Contribution allocable to such spaces together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate,
as hereinafter defined, for the period commencing on the date payments under (A) above are
provided to commence and continuing until the end of the tenth year from the commencement of
the lease term for the Grocery Lease. From and after the date of conveyance of the City
Supermarket Spaces to Developer, the percentages utilized for purposes of calculating the
relative contributions of the City and Developer in respect of Operating Expenses and Revenue
under the Declaration shall be adjusted proportionately, effective as of the date of the
conveyance. The "Interest Rate" shall be the average yield on an annualized basis generated by
investments actually made by the City in accordance with the City's Investment Policy and
Procedure (designed to assure the preservation of principal, a copy of which has been furnished
to Developer) during the period of time commencing on the commencement date of the term of
the Grocery Lease and ending when Developer's option under this sentence is triggered. Any
payments under (A) above, and interest under (B) above, shall cease at the end of the tenth year
from the commencement of the lease term for the Grocery Lease. For purposes of this provision,
if there is a condemnation, the first spaces taken shall be deemed to be City Supermarket Spaces.
Further, if Developer is unsuccessful in entering into a Replacement Lease and if City and
Developer, each acting in their own discretion, are unable to reach agreement as to an alternate
use for the space, City shall at its option then be entitled to attempt to locate another tenant

any guarantors) under the Grocery Lease or (Y) a credit rating of not less than Standard and
Poors A) who shall use the leased premises for family oriented retail/commercial uses that are no
more parking intensive than grocery store use and do not violate any then existing exclusive or
prohibited uses granted to other occupants of the Property and who shall pay the same base rent
and pass-thrus as specified in the Grocery Lease for the same remaining term and who shall be
entitled to the same options, rights, signage rights and benefits, and have the same obligations,
burdens and responsibilities (other than those relating to use of the space as a grocery
supermarket). If City does in fact locate another tenant, Developer shall thereupon recapture the
Grocery Lease from the existing tenant and enter into a direct lease with the tenant identified by
City at the same base rent and pass-thrus (but percentage rent shall not be required, and the
tenant shall be required to pay 100% of the taxes allocable to the City Supermarket Spaces, to the
extent Developer is obligated to payor reimburse the City in respect of same) as specified in the
Grocery Lease (and containing such other terms as are consistent with the Grocery Lease and
otherwise customarily required for leases of similar space to similar tenants and otherwise
consistent with the provisions of this Paragraph, without, however, an increase in any obligations
or other economic changes that are adverse to Developer or the tenant). Specific consideration
for the foregoing includes without limitation, vacation and conveyance by the City to Developer
of the Alley as provided in Section 6.2.1 (iv) of this Development Agreement and the City's
other agreements set forth in this Development Agreement. The provisions set forth in this
Section 15.2 shall become null and void and of no further force or effect 10 years from the
commencement of the lease term for the Grocery Lease.
Section 15.3 Developer represents that the intended initial use of the Project is
retail/commercial/parking and that initially office use will only be an incidental purpose.
Nothing contained herein, however, shall prevent Developer from using the Project for any
lawful purposes which comply with all Requirements, except, however, for the provisions of this
Article 15 with respect to the Grocery Lease and subsequent use of the space included in the
Grocery Lease.

City's notice to Developer shall state with specificity the provision of this Agreement
under which the Default is claimed, the nature and character of such Default, the facts giving rise
to such Default, the date by which such Default must be cured pursuant to this Agreement, if
applicable, and, if applicable, that the failure of Developer to cure such Default by the date set

only to Development Disputes, City's allegation of a Default shall be subject to expedited
arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Article 19, or within ten (10) Business Days after
receipt of City's notice ifno such grace period is provided therein.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred
until such time as City shall have given Developer notice of the occurrence of a Default;
provided, however, if Developer shall dispute, in accordance with the provisions of Article 19,
City's assertion that a Default which is a Development Dispute has occurred within ten (10)
Business Days after the giving of such notice by City, an Event of Default as to any such
Development dispute shall not be deemed to have occurred and City shall not be permitted to
exercise any rights against Developer stated herein to arise out of an Event of Default until such
time as the Development Arbitrator has determined that an Event of Default has occurred.
Developer agrees to make a good faith effort to notify City of any Unavoidable Delays

hereunder with respect to an Event of Default shall not limit or otherwise affect City's right to
elect any of the remedies available to City hereunder or at law or in equity with respect to any
other Event of Default. Anything in the Development Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, (i) City shall not be entitled to perform any obligations of Developer if a
Recognized Mortgagee promptly commences and thereafter diligently pursues reasonable steps
to in good faith do so, and City shall not interfere with a Recognized Mortgagee's rights to do so
and (ii) any recovery by City of damages under this Development Agreement shall be limited to
the amount of the City's Transit Facility Contribution actually paid by City to Developer,
together with interest thereon at the lesser of (A) the average yield on an annualized basis

hereunder, including without limitation the indemnification contained in Section 21.1. Nothing
contained in the Agreement shall preclude City from pursuing specific performance of
Developer's obligations under this Agreement, but the right to specific performance by the City
is subject to Developer's exercise of any termination right granted in this Agreement.
Section 17.3 Strict Performance.
No failure by City or Developer to insist upon strict performance of any covenant,
agreement, term or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy available to
such party by reason of the other Party's Default or an Event of Default, shall constitute a waiver
of any such Default or Event of Default or of such covenant, agreement, term or condition or of
any other covenant, agreement, term or condition. No covenant, agreement, term or condition of
this Agreement to be performed or complied with by either Party, and no Default by either Party,
shall be waived, altered or modified except by a written instrument executed by the other Party.
No waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall affect or alter this Agreement, but each and
every covenant, agreement, term and condition of this Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent Default. Developer's compliance
with any request or demand made by City shall not be deemed a waiver of Developer's right to
contest the validity of such request or demand. This provision shall survive termination of this
Agreement.
Section 17.4 Riot to Enioin Defaults.
With respect to Development Disputes and all other disputes, in the event of Developer's
Default or an Event of Default, City shall be entitled to seek to enjoin the Default or Event of
Default and shall have the right to invoke any rights and remedies allowed at law or in equity or

seek to enjoin the default and shall have the right to invoke any rights and remedies allowed at
law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, except to the extent Developer's remedies are
expressly limited by the terms hereof. Each right and remedy of City and Developer provided

provided for in this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise, except to the extent City's remedies or Developer's remedies are expressly limited by
the terms hereof, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by City or Developer of anyone
or more of the rights or remedies provided for in this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at
law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by
City or Developer of any or all other rights or remedies provided for in this Agreement or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity, except to the extent City's remedies and Developer's
remedies are expressly limited by the terms hereof.

Without in any way limiting Article 4, City and its representatives shall have the right to
enter upon the Development Site to conduct inspections for the purpose of determining whether a
Default or an Event of Default has occurred, provided that City shall be accompanied by a

representative of Developer available to accompany City on any such inspection.
Section 17.7 City's Default.
In the event of any default by City hereunder, Developer shall give City written notice
specifying such default and City agrees to promptly commence the curing of such default and to
cure such default within ten (10) days after receipt of notice in the case of payment of money or
thirty (30) days after receipt of notice as to other defaults; provided, however, that if such default
cannot reasonably be cured within said thirty (30) day period, then City shall cure any such
default as diligently as reasonably practicable under the circumstances and shall have a
reasonable period of time within which to cure such default so long as City is so proceeding. If
City fails to cure any default during the applicable curative period, Developer, at any time after
the expiration of such curative period, shall have the right to exercise any remedy provided in
this Agreement or available to Developer at law or in equity. City agrees to make a good faith
effort to notify Developer of any Unavoidable Delays affecting the performance by City of its
obligations under this Agreement and the estimated delay to result therefrom.
Developer's notice to City shall state with specificity the provision of this Agreement
under which the City's default is claimed, the nature and character of such City's default, the
facts giving rise to such City's default, the date by which such City's default must be cured
pursuant to this Agreement, if applicable, and, if applicable, that the failure of City to cure such
City's default by the date set forth in such notice will result in Developer having the right to
terminate this Agreement or exercise any other remedies specified by Developer. With respect
only to Development Disputes, Developer's allegation of a City default shall be subject to
expedited arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Article 19, or within ten (10) Business
Days after receipt of Developer's notice if no such grace period is provided therein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Developer may not exercise its remedies for a City
default until such time as Developer shall have given City notice of the occurrence of same;
provided, however, if City shall dispute, in accordance with the provisions of Article 19,
Developer's assertion that a City default which is a Development Dispute has occurred within
ten (10) Business Days after the giving of such notice by Developer, Developer shall not be
permitted to exercise any rights against City stated herein to arise out of a City default until such
time as the Development Arbitrator or a court, if applicable, has determined that a City default
has occurred.
Anything in this Development Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, City shall not
withhold any payments that are payable under this Development Agreement because of any
alleged default by Developer under this Agreement (provided that City shall not be obligated to
fund except as provided for in this Agreement, which specifies documentation to be furnished to
City and simultaneous funding by the City and Developer's construction lender of draw
requests). Any such payments shall, however, be made with full reservation of rights. This
provision is included in recognition of the fact that the City and Developer's construction lender
will be funding construction of the Project pari passu and any withholding of funds by the City
could adversely impact Developer's ability to obtain funding from its construction lender.

Approval, Building Permit or authorization to commence development, nor shall it relieve
Developer of the obligations to obtain necessary Development Approvals, Building Permits and
other required permits that are required under applicable law and under and pursuant to the terms
of this Development Agreement. Nothing contained in this Development Agreement shall be
deemed to constitute a waiver of any fee, charge or cost imposed by the City in connection with
the issuance of any Development Approval, Building Permit or other permit.
Notwithstanding the preceding Paragraph with respect to the waiver of permit or any
impact and other fees, City acknowledges that the Land has been designated as a Brownfield
pursuant to Miami Beach City Commission Resolution No. 2000-23963, and that A&R Sobe,
LLC has entered into a Brownfield Site Rehabilitation Agreement with Miami-Dade County,
Florida.
Developer may make application for and diligently pursue maximizing the benefits to
which the Project may be entitled as a result of the Brownfield designation, including any
benefits afforded by the Brownfield Recovery Act and any other related state, local or federal
program (including, if available, waiver of any impact, permit or other fees or costs). City shall
cooperate with Developer in connection with the application and any requirements associated
with the foregoing, provided, however, City shall not be required to expend any money or incur
any other liability with respect thereto, and any approvals required by the City associated with
this Article 20 shall be subject to the prior consideration and approval of the City Commission (if
and to the extent required by law), which approval, if any is required, shall be given at the City
Commission's discretion. To the extent that such benefits are available to a municipality or
governmental entity with respect to Brownfields, City agrees to cooperate and utilize reasonable
good faith efforts in making application for and diligently pursuing maximizing the recovery of
such Brownfields and other benefits; provided, however, City shall not be required to expend any
money or incur other liability with respect thereto, and any approvals required by the City
associated with this Article 20 shall be subject to the prior consideration and approval of the City
Commission (if and to the extent required by law), which approval, if any is required, shall be

CITY'S TRANSIT FACILITY CONTRIBUTION
(Payment Schedule per Section 6.2.1 (vi))
In respect of each construction draw in respect of the City Spaces for Hard Costs, City
shall pay Hard Costs reflected in said construction draw (after a holdback as determined by
Developer's construction lender for Hard Costs only) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator and
denominator of which are as set forth below. The numerator shall be the City's Transit Facility
Contribution allocated for other than the Transit Facility Dedication Area, the Transit Facility
Dedication Area Finishes and the City Elevator, and the denominator of which shall be the total
amount of Hard Costs available for disbursement under Developer's construction loan plus the
City's Transit Facility Contribution allocated for other than the Transit Facility Dedication Area,
the Transit Facility Dedication Area Finishes and the City Elevator. As to the City Elevator,
City shall fund 100% of the Hard Costs and Soft Costs reflected in each construction draw (after
a holdback as determined by Developer's construction lender for Hard Costs only). As to the
Transit Facility Dedication Area Finishes, City shall fund 100% of the Hard Costs and Soft Costs
reflected in each construction draw (after a holdback as determined by Developer's construction
lender for Hard Costs only). City's obligation to fund shall be conditioned upon (a) Developer's
construction lender's simultaneously funding of the entire balance of the construction draw that
City is funding and (b) the loan remaining "in balance" (as hereinafter provided), as determined
by Developer's construction lender.
Simultaneously with the submission of a draw request, and supporting documentation
(including whatever evidence the construction lender requires to evidence that the loan remains
"in balance"--i.e. the undisbursed portion of the City's Transit Facility Contribution together with
the undisbursed balance of the construction loan equals or exceeds the total amount required to
achieve Substantial Completion of the Project), to Developer's construction lender, said
materials shall be submitted to City. City shall approve or disapprove with detailed explanation
such materials within 1 0 days of receipt; provided, however, that approval by De~eloper's
construction lender (including a determination that the loan is "in balance") shall automatically
be deemed approval by City (even if it previously disapproved). Upon approval of such
materials by Developer's construction lender and upon satisfaction of such disbursement
requirements as are required by the title insurance company to enable the issuance of title
endorsements without exceptions for mechanics' liens, City shall fund its portion of City's
Transit Facility Contribution that is allocable to other than the Transit Facility Dedication Area
simultaneously with the funding by Developer's construction lender of its contribution so that, in
the aggregate, the full amount of the draw request is funded.
Developer shall promptly respond to any reasonable requests of City for additional
information, and respond to reasonable requests of City, pertaining to draw requests.
Any holdback for Hard Costs shall be funded by the City at the same time that
Developer's construction lender funds same. Upon Substantial Completion, City shall promptly
66
MIAMI a994?2.12699472.13 7198217084
3/J.'Jj05 I:() 1 PMK:08 AM
fund any remaining balance of City's Transit Facility Contribution that has not been funded as of
that date (regardless of whether or not the construction lender does so). The holdback amount
shall be a minimum of 5%, to be disbursed no sooner than the time the portion of the work to
which the holdback applies is substantially completed.
Anything in this Development Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the City shall
fund the Transit Facility Dedication Area Finishes if the Transit Facility Dedication Area has
been conveyed to the City and Developer has caused any of the Transit Facility Dedication Area
Finishes for which Developer is seeking payment to be installed, even if this Agreement is
terminated and even if City is entitled to reimbursement of other portions of City's Transit
Facility Contribution, and this provision shall survive termination. The reason for the foregoing
is that, once the Transit Facility Dedication Area is conveyed to the City, the City will benefit
from the Transit Facility Dedication Area Finishes, regardless of whether or not this Agreement
is subsequently terminated

the purpose of completing the Project, provided that such funds shall not be disbursed until
Substantial Completion of the Project, and City may offset any funds that it is owned pursuant to
this Guaranty from the amounts otherwise payable by the City on account of the City's Transit
Facility Contribution. Guarantors shall be entitled to use insurance or condemnation proceeds
for the restoration and repair of the Project.
3. If the Guarantors shall fail to perform or cause the performance of the Obligations
upon City's request as and when required under this Guaranty, then: (a) City shall have the right
(but not the obligation) in its sole discretion to complete the Project itself or through its agents or
third parties (provided, however, that this right shall not be exercised so long as Developer's
construction lender is proceeding in good faith to do so, it being the intent of Guarantors and the
City that the City will do nothing to interfere with the Developer's construction lender's attempts
to complete construction); and (b) the Guarantors shall promptly pay to City on demand a sum
equal to the costs of performing the Obligations by others reasonably acceptable to City in
excess of the undisbursed City's Transit Facility Contribution and other amounts payable by the
City under the Development Agreement remaining at the time of City's request for performance

hereunder (Guarantor's funds shall be paid first, up to the full amount they are obligated to pay
under this paragraph, and City shall promptly refund to Guarantors any excess funding by
Guarantors, if any, once construction is completed, together with interest at the same rate as City
is receiving on funds owed to it by Guarantors hereunder), together with interest on such
demanded sum at the rate of 10% per annum, simple interest, commencing on the date of
demand and continuing until paid, except that after judgment all such sums shall bear interest at
the higher of 10% per annum or the rate prescribed by applicable law for judgments. All such
payment obligations of the Guarantors shall be promptly paid by the Guarantors in lawful
currency of the United States of America and in immediately available funds. All such payments
shall be made without set-off, deduction or withholding for any reason whatsoever and shall be
final and free from any claim or counterclaim of any Guarantor.
4. For purposes of this Guaranty, the Project shall not be considered "complete"
until: (a) the construction of the Project (including all "punchlist" items) shall have been
completed in accordance with the Plans and the Development Agreement and in compliance with
all applicable laws, orders, rules, regulations and other requirements of any governmental
authorities having jurisdiction over the Project; (b) all necessary certificates of occupancy,
inspections and approvals for the Project shall have been issued by said governmental
authorities; (c) an architect or engineer reasonably approved by City shall have certified to City
in writing that the foregoing events (a) and (b) have occurred; and (d) the Property shall be free
and clear of all liens or claims of lien for labor or materials or services furnished in connection
with the construction or installation or equipping of the Project.
5. The Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay City interest on any sum for
which the Guarantors may be or become liable to City hereunder, from and after the date such
sum first becomes payable from the Guarantors to City, until paid, at the simple interest rate of
10% per annum. The Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay any reasonable expenses
incurred by City in the collection or enforcement of this Guaranty, including costs and
reasonable attorney's fees (including those incurred for appellate or administrative or bankruptcy
proceedings) in the event that City shall be obliged to resort to the courts or require the services
of an attorney to collect under this Guaranty.
6. The Guarantors consent and agree that Developer may alter, extend, change or
modify the Plans and Specifications or any terms or conditions contained in any contract or
subcontract or surety bond related to the Project, or may approve any change order, or may
release or waive or compromise the obligations of any such contractor or subcontractor or surety,
and that no such action by Developer shall in any manner affect this Guaranty or release the
obligations of any Guarantor hereunder, regardless of whether any Guarantor has received notice
of the same or has further consented thereto and regardless of whether City has approved the
action of Developer in question, and the Guarantors hereby severally waive and relinquish any
claim or defense against City based on any of the foregoing.
7. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally waive any and all defenses to any
action or proceeding brought to enforce this Guaranty or any part of this Guaranty, except the
single defense that the Obligation in question has actually been performed. Without limiting the
69
MIAMI 699472.12699472.13 7198217084
3/~1J05 \ :()\ PM8:08 AM
foregoing in any way, but merely by way of illustration, each Guarantor hereby specifically
waives any defense predicated upon:
(a)
other person; or
Incapacity, disability or lack of authority on the part of Developer or any
(b) Any change or modification in the Plans and Specifications, the Project
budget or other cost breakdowns, any disbursement or construction schedules, or any
construction contract or subcontract or surety bond related to the Project; or
(c) Any change or modification or extension or waiver of any term of the
Development Agreement or any document executed by Developer or any Guarantor with respect
to the Project, or any indulgence or forbearance or delay on the part of City in the enforcement of
any term of the Development Agreement or any such document, or any other or further dealings
or agreements between City and Developer or between City and any other Guarantor or
guarantors or sureties for all or any part of the Obligations; or
(d) The fact that there may now or hereafter be other guarantors or sureties
liable for all or any part of the Obligations, or that solvent persons other than Developer or the
Guarantors may have undertaken the performance of all or any part of the Obligations, whether
in connection with any surety bonds or any transfer of the Property or otherwise; or
(e) The full or partial release or discharge of Developer or any other present
or future Guarantor or guarantors or sureties for all or any part of the Obligations; or
(f) Any other act or omission by City or failure by City to proceed promptly,
or any other matter which might, but for this waiver by the Guarantors, be deemed a legal or
equitable release or discharge of a surety or guarantor, regardless of whether such act or
omission or failure or other matter varies or increases the risk of any Guarantor or affects the
rights or remedies of any Guarantor.
8. City shall not be required to notify any Guarantor of (a) City's acceptance of this
Guaranty, (b) any disbursements of funds before the Guarantors begin performance hereunder,
(c) any change in the Plans and Specifications or any contract or subcontract or surety bond, (d)
any modification of the Development Agreement or any other document executed by Developer
or any other Guarantor in connection with the Development Agreement, nor (d) any default by
Developer under the Development Agreement or by any other Guarantor under this Guaranty or
by any other guarantors or sureties for all or any part of the Obligations. The Guarantors hereby
jointly and severally waive presentment for payment, protest, notice of protest or dishonor,
notice of default, and (except for City's initial request for performance by the Guarantors as
specifically provided herein) any other notice or demand whatsoever before City commences to
enforce its rights under this Guaranty, whether by judicial proceedings or in any other manner.
City shall have no obligation whatsoever to disclose to any Guarantor any information City may
now possess or hereafter obtain about Developer, regardless of whether (i) City has reason to
believe that such information materially increases the risk of any Guarantor beyond that which
such Guarantor intends to assume hereunder, or (ii) City has reason to believe that such
70
MIAMI li994 72. 12699472.13 7198217084
3/~'Jj05 1:01 PM8:08 AM
information is unknown to any Guarantor, or (iii) City has a reasonable opportunity to
communicate such information to any Guarantor; the Guarantors understand and agree that the
Guarantors are fully responsible for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of
Developer and of all circumstances bearing on the risk of failure to complete the Project.
9. The liability assumed under this Guaranty shall not be affected by City's
acceptance of any settlement or composition offered by Developer or decreed with respect to
Developer by any court, either in liquidation, readjustment, receivership, bankruptcy or
otherwise, except only to the extent that such settlement has resulted in actual performance of the
Obligations, and then only to the extent of such performance. This Guaranty shall continue and
remain in full force and effect in the event that all or part of any payment made by Developer in
connection with the completion of the Project is recovered from City as a preference, fraudulent
transfer or similar voidable payment under any bankruptcy or insolvency law.
10. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Guaranty are direct, unconditional
and completely independent of the obligations of Developer. City may exercise any of its rights
under this Guaranty, including without limitation bringing and prosecuting any action against the
Guarantors jointly or severally or individually, without any requirement that City join Developer
as a party to the action, or notify or make demand upon or proceed against or exhaust any other
remedy against Developer, any other guarantor or surety for the Obligations, or any other person
who might have become liable for the Obligations.
11. All rights, remedies and powers granted to City by applicable law or in this
Guaranty or the Development Agreement or any other document executed by Developer in
connection with the Development Agreement shall be separate and cumulative and may be
exercised singly or concurrently on one or more occasions. No delay in exercising or failure to
exercise any of City's rights or remedies shall constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right or remedy by City preclude any other or further exercise of that or
any other right or remedy. No waiver of any right or remedy by City shall be effective unless
made in writing and signed by City, nor shall any waiver on one occasion apply to any future
occasion, but shall be effective only with respect to the specific occasion addressed in that signed
writing.
12. While this Guaranty remains in effect, no payment or performance under this
Guaranty shall in any way or at any time entitle any Guarantor to any right, claim or cause of
action against Developer, or to any right, title or interest in or to the Development Agreement or
any rights of City, and each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of City and Developer, any
and all such rights (whether arising by way of subrogation, exoneration, reimbursement,
participation, assignment, judicial decision, statute, constitutional provision, or otherwise) which
such Guarantor might otherwise have had in the absence of this waiver and which would have
otherwise entitled such Guarantor to be a "creditor" of Developer under the provisions of the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code (Title 11, U.S. Code) or any other bankruptcy or insolvency law.
13. This instrument is a continuing, binding, absolute and unconditional guaranty of
completion which shall remain in full force and effect until the first of the following events shall
have occurred: (a) the construction and installation and equipping of the Project shall have been
71
MIAMI 699472.\2699472.13 7198217084
3/J. 'Jj05 I:() 1 PM8:OS AM
completed in accordance with the Plans and Specifications and all other Obligations have been
fully performed or (b) this Guaranty shall have been terminated by written agreement between
City and the Guarantors or (c) the Development Agreement shall have terminated by its terms.
Promptly upon request by the Guarantors, or any of them, after the first of the foregoing events
has occurred, City will confirm in writing that this Guaranty has terminated and is of no further
force or effect.
14. The agreements by the Guarantors contained in this Guaranty shall bind the
Guarantors and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, jointly
and severally.
15. City may not assign this Guaranty in whole or in part to anyone, other than a
successor governmental entity (to whom the rights and benefits hereof shall inure).
16. Time shall be of the essence with respect to all of the provisions of this Guaranty.
.17. Any provision of this Guaranty which is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction only, be ineffective only to the extent of such
prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting
the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
18. Whenever used in this Guaranty and unless the context otherwise requires, words
in the singular include the plural, words in the plural include the singular, and pronouns of any
gender include the other genders. All references in this Guaranty to numbered paragraphs refer
to the paragraphs of this Guaranty, unless such reference specifically identifies another
document. All references in this Guaranty to sums expressed in dollars refer to the lawful
currency of the United States of America, unless such reference specifically identifies another
currency.
19. This Guaranty is executed under seal and is governed by, and shall be construed
and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Florida, except that federal law shall
govern to the extent that it may permit City to charge interest from time to time at a rate greater
than may be permissible under Florida law. Nothing contained in this Guaranty shall be
construed as obligating any Guarantor in any way to be responsible for interest in excess of that
which would be lawful for such Guarantor to pay under the circumstances.
20. The Guarantors and City hereby severally, voluntarily, knowingly and
intentionally WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY in any legal action or
proceeding arising under or in connection with this Guaranty, and in any legal action or
proceeding concerning the Obligations, regardless of whether such action or proceeding concerns
any contractual or tortious or other claim. Each Guarantor acknowledges that this waiver of jury
trial is a material inducement to City, that City would not have entered into the Development
Agreement without this jury trial waiver, and that such Guarantor has been represented by an
attorney or has had an opportunity to consult with an attorney regarding this Guaranty and
understands the legal effect of this jury trial waiver.

Florida.

MATERIAL PROVISIONS OF DECLARATION
1. General. The condominium will be structured so that, in
addi tion to the units comprising the actual City Spaces (which shall
be broken out into the City Supermarket Spaces and the City Non-
Supermarket Spaces), the Developer Spaces, the City Elevator and the
Retail Space, the "common areas" (including an equitable allocation of
the Land) comprising the Garage will be a Unit (the "City Unit") to be
owned by the City but installed, operated, maintained, insured,
repaired and replaced (when necessary) by the Developer (subj ect to
the payments provided for herein), and the "common areas" (including
an equitable allocation of the Land) not comprising the City Unit will
be a unit (the "Developer Unit") to be owned by the Developer. The
term "Garage", as herein used, shall be the portion of the
Improvements (including the City Spaces and the Developer Spaces)
other than the Retail Space (i. e. the "Transit Facility"). It will
include customary easements, including easements for access to parking
spaces and the City Elevator by members of the public (subject to the
limitations set forth elsewhere) and easements for support and for,
encroachments.
It is the intention of the Parties' that the City and Developer
reasonably cooperate with each other to implement a parking operation
that promotes maximum use of the facility as a transit accessible
facility that addresses the City's objective and desire to provide a
parking alternative that links to other modes of transportation at a
key entrance point of the City (and is mindful of the City's FTA
funding source requirements, if applicable) while, at the same time,
assuring sufficient and orderly parking for the Retail Space
occupants, and the Parties shall reasonably consider implementing any
alternatives suggested by each other to effect this intent.
2. Limitations on Use of Property
a. Rules. Reasonable nondiscriminatory and
consistently enforced rules and regulations may be established by the
Developer or, as to the Garage only, the City with prior input from
and written approval of the Developer (which approval will not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), related to the use of
the Garage and/or other areas located on the Property. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing shall preclude
Developer from installing devices (such as locks or computer entry
cards) that will prohibit or limit access into the Retail Space or
areas of the Garage that are wholly under its control (such as
electric closets or janitor rooms, but not the Developer Spaces) from
stairwells, elevators and other areas with respect to which access
74
MIAMI 699472.12699472.137198217084
3/J.'Jj05 I:{) 1 PM8:08 AM
rights exist for the benefit of the City. Further, nothing shall
preclude a reasonable number of Developer Spaces (but not City
Spaces) from being designated by Developer for short term parking (but
only during Retail Hours, as hereinafter defined), nothing shall
preclude a reasonable number of Developer Spaces and/or City
Supermarket Spaces (but not City Non-Supermarket Spaces) from being
designated by Developer for use by the customers of the supermarket
occupant only (but only during the hours that the supermarket occupant
is open for business) and nothing shall preclude a reasonable number
of Developer Spaces (but not City Spaces) from being designated by
Developer for use by the customers of Developer designated occupants
of portions of the Retail Space only (but only during Retail Hours).
During those hours that all of the Retail Space is closed for
business, it is anticipated that substantially all of the Garage will
be available for public parking purposes, subj ect nonetheless to the
provisions contained herein for employee decal parking and the setting
aside of specific locations therefor, if applicable.
b. Conduct of Work. All work performed in the
Garage shall be performed in a prompt, good, workmanlike, first class,
lien-free manner, and in a manner which minimizes disruption of or
interference with the operation of all portions of the Property. Once
commenced, such work shall be performed continuously and with due
diligence and, promptly upon completion thereof, the area in which the
work was performed, and any other areas affected thereby, shall be
restored to at least the condition that they were in prior to the
performance of such work. Developer will be responsible for
maintenance, repair and replacement of all portions of the Property;
it is not contemplated that the City will be performing any
maintenance, repair or replacement work in respect of the Property,
and the City shall perform no such work in respect of the Property
without first consulting with and obtaining the prior written approval
of Developer (which Developer may withhold in its absolute and sole
discretion if Developer elects to perform such work itself but
otherwise Developer will not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition
approval). Any construction activity by the City within any portion
of the Property shall require at least 48 hours written notice to
Developer, except in the case of an emergency when only such notice as
is reasonable under the circumstances shall be required. Any
construction activity in the Garage shall be performed in a manner
that minimizes inconvenience to and disruption of the operation of the
Garage and the availability of parking spaces.
c. Plans Availability. Each Party shall retain all
plans and specifications for any work performed by it, and shall make
same available to the other Party from time to time upon reasonable
request therefor (and the other Party may duplicate any such
materials, at its cost). The foregoing is agreed to in recognition of
the fact that such materials may facilitate the maintenance, repair
and replacement of facilities within the Property. Each Party
75
MIAMI 699472.\2699472.13 7198217084
3/J.'Jj05 1 :()) PM8'08 AM
disclaims any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any
such materials.
d. Compliance with Legal Requirements. Developer is
responsible for maintaining, repairing and replacing all components of
the Property, and Developer agrees that it will at all times while
this Declaration is in effect promptly and fully comply with all Legal
Requirements that pertain to the Property, whether or not any such
Legal Requirements shall necessitate structural changes or
improvements to or interfere with the use and enjoyment of the
Property; provided, however, that the City shall comply with all Legal
Requirements that pertain to the operation of the Garage, for which it
is responsible, as well as with all Legal Requirements pertaining to
work that it performs or activities in which it engages in respect of
the Property. "Legal Requirements" shall mean (i) all present and
future laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations and requirements
of all federal, state, county and municipal governments, departments,
commissions, boards and courts, and rules and regulations of any
insurance rating organization or any other body exercising similar
functions, foreseen or unforeseen, ordinary as well as extraordinary,
which may be applicable to the Property or the sidewalks and curbs
adjoining the Property or to the use or manner of use of the Property
by the owners, tenants, or occupants thereof, including the Americans
with Disabilities Act; and (ii) the requirements of all public
liability, fire and other policies of insurance at any time in force
with respect to the Property; and (iii) the provisions of any
restrictive covenants now or hereafter affecting the Property. Each
Party further agrees to cooperate with all reasonable requests of the
other in respect of resolving issues pertaining to compliance with
Legal Requirements. Either Party shall have the right to contest any
Legal Requirements, or their applicability, through all available
lawful means, and may defer compliance with any Legal Requirement
while it is so contesting same in good faith and diligently, so long
as the contesting Party takes all steps reasonably required to stay
any enforcement action or otherwise prevent material adverse impact to
the other Party or the Property.
e. Cooperation. All easements granted in this
Declaration, and the use thereof, shall be deemed to be limited to the
extent reasonably necessary to accomplish the purposes for which such
easements are granted. Each Party agrees to cooperate with the
reasonable requests of the other in furtherance of the spirit and
intent of the matters addressed in this Declaration.
3. Initial Construction/Renovations/Use.
a. Changes by Developer. Subject to the provisions
contained in this Declaration, after the Initial Construction has been
completed, Developer shall have the right at any time and from time to
time, without the need for obtaining consent or approval from the City
76
MIAMI 699472.12699472 13 7198217084
3/J.'Jj05 1 :01 PM8:08 AM
or anyone else, to change, rearrange, alter, modify, build upon or
otherwise reduce the easement areas created by this Declaration and
located on its portion of the Property, so long as the City's (and its
licensee's and invitee's) easements and use rights to the City Spaces
and City Elevator are not materially adversely affected. In the event
any of same are accomplished with respect to the easement areas
located on its portion of the Property, same shall automatically
release the easement area which is so changed, rearranged, altered,
modified, built upon or otherwise reduced, from this Declaration. In
addition to the foregoing, Developer specifically shall have the
right, without the need for obtaining consent or approval from the
City or anyone else, to replace, alter or add to any existing
buildings or structures located on its portion of the Property or to
build any new buildings or structures on its portion of the Property
as it may from time to time desire, regardless of whether or not the
addi tions or replacements are constructed wholly or partly upon the
easement areas created by this Declaration, subject to compliance with
the provisions contained herein and provided that no change in the
character of the Property as a retail/restaurant/office project shall
be effected without the City's approval, which will not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. If the foregoing
requires relocation of any then existing utility or drainage
facilities, or other components for which easements have been granted
by this Declaration, Developer shall be responsible, at its cost, for
relocating such utility or drainage facilities, or other components
for which easements have been granted in this Declaration, and same
shall be accomplished in a manner that minimizes disruption of (and,
to the extent reasonably possible, avoids interruption of) service and
accessibility for maintenance and in a manner so as to minimize
inconvenience to and disruption of the owners and occupants of the
remaining portions of the Property and the operation and availability
of parking spaces in the Garage. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Developer shall not effect any of the foregoing if doing so would
result in a material reduction in the number of parking spaces at the
Property (any reduction shall not affect the City Spaces) or
materially and adversely impact access to said parking spaces or
ingress/egress to and from the Garage.
b. Weight Loads. Neither Party shall permit the weight
load from any portion of its Property to exceed the load-bearing
capacity of the applicable portion of the structure located on the
Property.
c. Odors. Neither Party shall permit any offensive odors
to exist on the Property; provided, however, that both Parties
recognize that it is difficult to control odors within the loading and
compactor/trash areas due to the nature of the use of those areas and,
although reasonable steps to minimize odors from those areas will be
taken, the provisions of this subparagraph shall be interpreted to
77
MIAMI a99472.12699472.13 7198217084
3/~1105 I :()1 PM!:Q!AM
give due consideration to the difficulty in controlling odors in these
areas,
d. Use of Garage, The Garage shall be utilized solely
for the parking of motor vehicles and incidental purposes (including
shopping cart and other storage areas reasonably designated by
Developer). Developer shall have the exclusive right to install
vending, ATM, pay telephone and similar machines within the Garage
(but shall only install them in portions of the Retail Space or
Developer Unit unless City consents to their installation in portions
of the City Unit, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld,
delayed or conditioned), and all revenues derived therefrom shall
belong solely to Developer and all costs associated therewith shall be
Developer's sole responsibility (but this shall not require separate
metering or submetering of the minimal utility service required
therefor). Both Parties shall take all steps reasonably possible to
prevent soliciting in the Garage.
e. Hazardous Materials. Each Party agrees that it will
not generate, use, store or dispose of any hazardous materials or
substances on any portion of the Property except in full compliance
with all Legal Requirements. Hazardous substances or materials for
purposes of the foregoing shall mean any substances or materials that
are from time to time designated as such by, or whose generation, use,
storage or disposal is regulated pursuant to, any Legal Requirements.
If either Party receives any notice of the release of a hazardous
material or substances affecting the Property, it shall promptly
notify the other Party, and each Party shall cooperate with all
reasonable requests of the other Party in respect of remediation, at
no cost to the Party being requested to cooperate except to the extent
such Party breached the provisions of the first sentence of this
subparagraph (e)
f. Government Compliance.
(i) The Parties acknowledge that the City (in its
regulatory capacity and not as a Party to this Declaration) or other
applicable governmental authorities may require the joinder by both
Parties in applications for permits to perform work within the
Property. Each Party desiring to perform work shall, if so required,
submit any such applications to the other Party for review, approval
and joinder, which will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned, provided the work for which the permit is being sought is
in accordance with the terms of this Declaration (including compliance
with all Legal Requirements, including approvals required by City in
its regulatory capacity). The Parties further acknowledge being aware
that, in connection with permitting pertaining to any portion of the
Property, the Party applying for such permit may have to submit plans
for the entire Property and, if this is required by applicable
governmental authorities, each Party shall cooperate with the other,
78
MIAMI 699472.12699472.13 7\98217084
3/~1/05 1:()l PM8:08 AM
at no cost to the cooperating Party, in accomplishing this in a manner
that minimizes delay in the application process.
(ii) Each Party shall, within five (5) business days
of receipt, furnish to the other Party a copy of any notices received
from any governmental authority pertaining to any violation of Legal
Requirements, compliance with respect to which is or may be the
responsibility of the other Party.
4. Operation, Maintenance, Repair and Replacement.
a. Generally. Subject to the limitations and
reimbursement/contribution provisions contained elsewhere in this
Declaration, City agrees to operate the Garage and Developer agrees to
maintain, repair, insure and, when necessary, replace, all portions of
the Property (including the Garage), so that same are at all times in
first class order, condition and repair, consistent with similar first
class facilities of similar stature to that of the Property in the
South Florida area. In any event, the standards for maintenance,
repair and replacement of the Garage shall be no less than the
standards maintained in municipal parking garages that are operated by
the City elsewhere within Miami Beach.
b. By Developer. The foregoing obligation of Developer
to maintain, repair, insure, and, when necessary, replace the Property
(including the Garage), shall include, without limitation: (i) keeping
all portions of the Property maintained in a clean, unlittered,
orderly, watertight and sanitary condition; (ii) removing, to the
extent practicable, surface waters; (iii) keeping all marking and
directional signs, if any, on the Property clear, distinct and
legible; (iv) maintaining, mowing, weeding, trimming and watering all
landscaped areas; (v) maintaining and operating exterior and public
area lighting at reasonable levels during hours of darkness; (vi)
painting and otherwise maintaining the exterior surfaces of the
buildings on the Property; (vii) providing such security as Developer
reasonably deems appropriate; and (viii) generally maintaining the
structure and building systems of the buildings on the Property. The
City shall be responsible for initially purchasing and installing all
systems, equipment and signage reasonably designated by it (but
subject to Developer's approval of the systems, equipment and signage
to be installed, and the costs thereof, not unreasonably withheld) in
respect of the operation of the Garage (ex. access control devices,
security cameras and monitors/recorders, money collection equipment,
entry and exit signage), initially at its sole cost and without
initial contribution by Developer (but subsequent maintenance, repair
and replacement shall be an Operating Expense; and one half of the
initial purchase and installation cost shall be amortized over ten
years together with a finance charge computed by utilizing the lO-year
T-bill rate in effect at the time the initial cost (or the material
portion thereof) is incurred and Developer shall pay to City annually
79
MIAMI 699472 .12699472.13 7198217084
3/~'Jj05 I:()] PM8'08 AM
in arrears the amount so amortized); the purchase and installation, as
well as the subsequent maintenance, repair, insuring, obligation to
pay taxes on and replacement of such systems, equipment and signage,
shall be coordinated with Developer, who may from time to time elect,
in Developer's sole discretion to maintain, repair, insure, pay taxes
on or replace any of such systems, equipment and signage, with the
costs thereof (regardless of who performs same) being allocated as an
"Operating Expense" of the Garage.
c. By City. The foregoing obligation of the City to
operate means that the City shall provide all personnel, systems and
equipment (subject to the other provisions of this Declaration)
reasonably required to control vehicular access to and from the
Garage, collect compensation and implement a reasonably and mutually
agreed upon parking validation system. The quantity and types of
equipment and personnel shall be designated by the City, subject to
reasonable prior approval by the Developer of budget and other matters
pertaining thereto. Developer may at any time and for any reason in
Developer's sole but reasonably exercised business judgment (i.e. if
Developer presents a reasonably objective request, the City shall not
have the authority to second guess Developer) request personnel
changes, which shall be promptly implemented by the City. Both
Parties acknowledge being aware that, in order for the Garage to
operate for its intended purpose and for the Retail Space to be
successful, sufficient and orderly employee and customer parking will
be required and, accordingly, the following limitations shall be
applicable:
(i) All parking in the Garage will, unless otherwise
approved by Developer In its sole but reasonably exercised business
judgment, be solely (A) validated parking for customers of the Retail
Space (including restaurant patrons, at Developer's sole option), (B)
decal/access card parking for employees of the Retail Space (including
restaurant employees), (C) decal/access card parking for transit users
and other third parties, with transit users being given priority (the
extent of which shall be initially determined wi thin 120 days after
the earlier of one year after Substantial Completion or when 90% of
the square footage of the Retail Space is initially occupied for
normal business operations (the earlier time frame shall be defined as
"Full Occupancy"), and shall be adjusted at least quarterly with a
view toward maximizing Garage revenues and general public transit and
non-transit parking consistent with demonstrable Retail Space parking
demand; in this regard, the maximum number of decals/access cards to
be allowed during Retail Hours, as hereinafter defined, shall be
consistent with the City's policy (bCl:]cd upon Cl pcrccntClgc of totCll
City SpClCC:] lc:]:] City SupcrffiClrJcct SpClCC:] in thc CClrClgc) for other City
owned or operated garages unless Developer approves to the contrary in
its sole discretion), (D) special event permit parking for third
parties (including special events organized by Developer of the
occupants of the Retail Space, with which City shall reasonably

cooperate to facilitate implementation), or (E) timed ticket parking
for the public, both transit and non-transit users (but during Retail
Hours, as hereinafter Defined, unless Developer approves, which
Developer may do or refuse to do in its sole but reasonably exercised
business judgment, the rate shall be based on a sliding scale amount
that discourages long term parking to the extent reasonably necessary
to assures sufficient short term customer parking for the occupants of
the Retail Space and their customers). Anyone parking in the Garage
that does not have a decal/access card (including a transit user
decal/access card), special event permit, is not validated by an
occupant of the Retail Space, or is so validated but parks longer than
the designated validation period (two hours maximum), will be subject
to payment of a mutually and reasonably agreed upon sum (based on a
schedule listing different circumstances and the agreed upon sum for
each, if applicable, one of which circumstances will be hourly
ticketed parking, which shall be charged based on a sliding scale as
aforestated) that is intended to control parking in order to
effectuate the mutual intent of the Parties as set forth in the last
sentence of subsection 4(c) (ii) below. Although it is intended by the
Parties that hourly parking will be permitted if the parking
requirements of the Retail Space are being met, the foregoing
limitations on timed ticket parking during Retail Hours are included
(and needed) to assure that there will at all times be reasonably
sufficient and orderly parking for the Retail Space occupants and
their customers, which the Parties mutually agree is essential to the
success of the Retail Space and the public/transit Garage operation.
All users of the Garage pursuant to subparagraph (C) above shall be
advised in the parking contract which they sign that use of the Garage
may be restricted during special events (unless Developer reasonably
approves of the omission of such provision). City shall post notices
and reasonably enforce such restrictions during such special events.
(ii) Within 120 days after Full Occupancy, the Parties
shall mutually, reasonably and in good faith, determine the number of
non-employee decals/access cards (including transit decal/access
cards) and special event parking passes to be outstanding for parking
in the Garage at any given time (the "Public Passes") during "Retail
Hours" (defined as hours when at least 90% of thelOO,OOO square
foot~gefeet of the Retail Space th~t i8 not~ the time v~c~nt,

provided, however, that if code required parking for the Retail. Space
at any given time exceeds 643 [the contempl.ated number of Devel.oper
Spaces and City Supermarket Spaces] spaces, and further provided that
any code required parking in excess of 643 shal.l. have deducted
therefrom the code required parking for any occupant who is not
entitl.ed to val.idate parking for its customers (for example, if a 100
seat restaurant occupant causes the 643 code required parking to be

exceeded by 40 parking spaces, its 40 spaces shall only be added to
the foregoing 643 figure if said occupant is entitled to validate
customer parking) (employee decal validation shall in any event be
available), Developer shall pay during such time period an amount (the
"Public Parking Amount") equal to the lesser of $55 per month (such
rate to increase by 2.5% per year starting at the same time that the
Contribution, as hereinafter defined, starts increasing) or the lowest
per month contract rate per month in the Garage for comparable terms
per code required space in excess of 643, as so reduced (which payment
shall be included in Revenue, as defined below) and the maximum number
of Public Passes shall be reduced by the number of parking spaces for
which Developer pays the Public Parking Amount as aforestated
(calculation of code required parking shall be calculated or
recalculated at the time of issuance of initial certificates of
occupancy for 100% of the Retail Space, and payments for any Public
Parking Amount shall not commence until such calculation or
recalculation is made). Thereafter, the maximum number of Public
Passes will be reasonably and in good faith adjusted by agreement
between the Parties based on actual usage patterns at least quarterly
(with a view toward maximizing Garage revenues and public/transit
parking consistent with demonstrable Retail Space parking demand;
provided, however, the maximum number of decals / access cards to be
allowed during Retail Hours shall be consistent with the City's policy
(b,:lOCd upon il pcrccntilge.-e-f- totill City SpilCCD IC]3 City Supcrmilrket
Spilce3 in the Gilrilgc) for other City owned or operated garages unless
Developer approves of a different number in its sole discretion).
Developer shall have a continuing and on-going priority right over
anyone else to purchase up to ~!50 Public Passes (inclu3i7cexclusive
of the Public Passes purchased by Developer, if any, to satisfy code
requirements) for use by the Retail Space occupants, their customers
and employees during Retail Hours at a cost per Public Pass that is
the same as the lowest comparable rate offered to third parties in the
Garage. Developer may, from time to time as needed, purchase all or
any Public Passes that Developer is entitled to purchase and/or
surrender any or all Public Passes that Developer shall have purchased
(upon surrender, those Public Passes that were so surrendered shall
once again be available for sale to the public). If at any time, the
code required parking falls below 643 parking spaces by virtue of a
change in use of the contemplated supermarket user, those parking
spaces that are no longer needed to satisfy code shall be available
for public/transit parking, subject to the limitations contained
elsewhere in this Declaration. The maximum number of Public Passes
that may be outstanding during other than Retail Hours shall be
reasonably, in good faith and mutually agreed upon by the Parties,
subject to the other limitations set forth in this Agreement.
Decals /access cards (including those for transit users) and special
event permits will be coded separately for parking during Retail Hours
and other hours to maximize potential Garage revenues while assuring
at the same time reasonably sufficient and orderly parking for the
Retail Space occupants. It is the intent of this subparagraph that
82
MIAMI a99472.12699472.13 7198217084
3/~1/05 1 :01 PM8:08 AM
the City and Developer reasonably cooperate with each other to
implement a parking operation that promotes use of the Garage as a
transit accessible facility, maximizes the revenues of the Garage and
addresses the City's objective and desire to provide a parking
alternative that links to other modes of transportation at a key entry
point of the City (and is mindful of the City's FTA funding source
requirements, if applicable) while, at the same time, assuring
reasonably sufficient and orderly parking for the Retail Space
occupants, and the Parties shall reasonably consider implementing any
alternatives suggested by each other to effect this intent.
(iii) During Non-Retail Hours, public, transit and
valet parking shall be promoted pursuant to a reasonably and mutually
agreed upon joint marketing effort of City and Developer, the cost of
which marketing effort shall be deemed an "Operating ExpenseH of the
Garage. A system for decals, parking passes, tickets or other
moni toring of valet usage (including valet for any restaurant
occupants of the Retail Space) shall be implemented as reasonably and
mutually agreed upon by the Parties so that valet operators are only
able to utilize the number of parking spaces for which they pay/pre-
pay. City shall in good faith endeavor to provide a shuttle service
or other public transportation for Garage users to encourage parking
during non-Retail Hours if there is a reasonable demand for same such
that doing so is economically practical (the cost for which shall not
be included in "Operating Expenses" for the Garage) .
(iv) The customers of the occupants of all of the
Retail Space and the employees of all of the Retail Space shall be
entitled to park in the Garage free of charge, subject to the
validation and decal provisions of this Declaration and payment of the
agreed upon annual operating expense contribution (the "Contribution")
for parking spaces by the owner of the Retail Space (which may be
passed through to the occupants of the Retail Space). The amount of
the Contribution shall initially be equal to the number of Developer
~aces (contemplated to be 546), less the difference between the ~l
number of City code required parkinq spaces allocable to the
contemplate~ supermarket and the_ number of City Supermarket Spaces
(contemplated to be ~+~ calculated by takinq the 175 total

Supermarket Spaces) and also ~ess the number of City code required

fifth day of each month in advance commencing on the date the Garage
first opens for normal business operations. Notwith~t~nding the

increase by 2.5% (over the Prior year's Contribution) per year
starting on the January 1 immediately following the third anniversary
of Full Occupancy of the Retail Space. Rates for non-employee
decal/access card and special event permits shall be reasonably and
mutually agreed upon by the Parties, but shall not in the absence of
reasonable justification be less than the rates charged by the City
for parking in municipal parking garages operated elsewhere in Miami
Beach by the City.
(v) City shall not be entitled to assign or otherwise
delegate responsibility for operating the Garage to any other person
or entity (except that City may enter into a contract with a third
party for the operation of the greater of one-half (or more) or three
(3) of the parking garages operated by the City within Miami Beach and
include operation of the Garage in such contract-the Garage shall not
be included in determining the threshold for number of garages
(three/one-half) is met). City shall operate the garage solely
utilizing City employees or employees hired pursuant to a contract
with the City for the operation of the greater of three or one-half
(or more) of the parking garages operated by the City within Miami
Beach. If, at any time, City decides that it no longer desires to
operate the Garage, City shall allow Developer at its sole option to
either operate, or engage a third party contractor designated by
Developer and reasonably acceptable to City to operate, the Garage.
(vi) The City and Developer shall reasonably and
mutually allocate specific portions of the parking spaces in the
Garage for specific types of users (ex. long term parkers (including
public parking/transit users) and Retail Space employees will park on
the upper levels, while short term parkers will park on the lower
levels; further, specific occupants of the Retail Space, such as the
contemplated grocery supermarket, may be designated a specific area
for its customer parking, at Developer's option, to the exclusion of
others), if reasonably required for the efficient operations of the
Garage, and shall take reasonable steps (including, potentially,
towing in the Developer's reasonable discretion) to enforce such
allocations.
84
MIAMI 699472.12699472.13 7198217084
3/J.'Jj05 1 :01 PM8:08 AM
(vii) The City and Developer shall reasonably and
mutually work with each other, and Developer shall use good faith and
reasonable efforts to get the cooperation of the occupants of the
Retail Space, to avoid, to the maximum extent possible, parking in the
Garage by Retail Space employees at times when they are not actually
working (unless they pay the applicable non-validation/decal/access
card rate) and validated parking in the Garage other that by Retail
Space customers while they are actually shopping at the Retail Space.
The intent of the foregoing is to promote public/transit parking and
maximize revenue from the Garage operation, while providing validated
(no cost to the actual customers and employees) parking to employees
and customers of the Retail Space only when they are working/shopping
at the Retail Space.
(viii) Anything contained in this Declaration to the
contrary notwithstanding, in the event Developer determines for any
reason in Developer's sole and absolute discretion at any time up
until eighteen months after Full Occupancy, and thereafter in
Developer's sole but reasonably exercised business judgment (i.e. if
Developer presents a reasonably objective case, the City shall not
have the authority to second guess Developer), that (A) the level of
parking demand generated by Developer's tenant's and their customers
and employees, together with the demand generated by City permits or
timed ticket parking is such that commitments made by Developer to its
tenants related to adequacy of parkinq are, or are alleged to be,
breached, or (B) the adequacy of parking for tenants and their
customers and employees has resulted in complaints by Developer's
tenants, or their customers or employees, relative to the sufficiency
of available parking, or (C) the concept of joint operational control
of the Garage as contemplated by this Agreement is not working
effectively or efficiently (each, an "Issue"), Developer may notify
the City (the "Notice") of Developer's determination of the existence
of an Issue. Within 15 days after the Notice, Developer and City
shall meet to discuss alternative courses of action for rectifying the
Issue, which alternatives may include adoption of any of the
discretionary controls set forth in subparagraph 4(c) of this
Agreement such as limiting timed ticket parking during designated
hours, increasing timed ticket parking rates during designated hours
or reducing the number of Public Passes during designated hours, or
other alternatives that may be suggested by either of the Parties. If
they are unable to agree on a course of action for attempting to
obtain a resolution for the Issue, and during the time the course of
action to attempt to obtain a resolution for the Issue is being
implemented, if requested by Developer, City shall immediately adopt
(on an interim basis) any proposal suggested by Developer to alleviate
the effects of the Issue while the Developer and City continue to meet
to work out a resolution for the Issue in a manner that is reasonably
satisfactory to both (the course of action, if any, that results in a
permanent alleviation of the effects of the Issue shall be referred to
as the "Resolution"). If a Resolution is reached, Developer's exercise
85
MIAMI 699472.\2699472.13 7198217084
3/~'Jj05 1:01 PM8:08 AM
of its right to require reconveyance/conveyance as provided below
shall be inapplicable and no Demand, as hereinafter defined, may be
made. Developer and City each agree to work diligently and in good
faith to attempt to reach a Resolution. If, after utilizing diligence
and good faith to attempt to reach a Resolution, a Resolution has not
been reached to the sole satisfaction of Developer, Developer may,
upon 60 days' notice to the City (the "Notice Period"), demand (the
"Demand") that the City re-convey the City Spaces, City Unit, City
Elevator and other components of the Transit Facility (which, for
clarification, does not include the Transit Facility Dedication Area)
to Developer or its designee (in which case City shall also convey at
no additional cost, other than twice (once for Developer's unamortized
portion and the other for the City's unamortized portion) any
remaining unamortized cost over the first 10 years that Developer has
not paid as contemplated in Section 4(b) above, all systems, equipment
and signage utilized in connection with the operation of the Garage to
Developer or its designee, regardless of who initially paid for or
installed same). If Developer makes the Demand, the
reconveyance/conveyance provided for below shall occur and, until the
time of reconveyance/conveyance (or rescission of exercise, if
applicable), the City shall continue in effect any proposal suggested
by Developer to alleviate the effects of the Issue. The Demand may
only be made if Developer has purchased at least ~150 Public Passes
during the preceding 30 day period and that has not alleviated the
effects of the Issue. Further, any Demand made by Developer shall be
deemed withdrawn if, within 30 days thcrcJ~ftcrthereafter, City agrees
to pcrffiJncntly adopt for so 10nQ as is necess~ any proposal
submitted by Developer to alleviate the effects of the Issue. Upon
Developer's making the Demand, such reconveyance/conveyance by the
City to Developer or its designee shall be made in exchange for a
payment by Developer to City of:

third party purchaser within one (1) year after such exercise (if such
a sale or transfer occurs, the sales price shall be recalulated within
30 days after such sale or transfer based on (BB) below, and this
right to recalculate shall survive such sale or transfer), the full

City shall, within the Notice Period (or such reasonably longer time
frame as Developer shall request, in order to enable Developer to put
together its funding for the payment to be made by it), re-convey the
City Spaces and City Elevator and convey the aforestated systems,
equipment and signage to Developer or its designee free and clear of
all liens and otherwise subject only to the matters affecting those
spaces, equipment and signage at the time of Developer's conveyance of
those spaces to, or purchase of such systems, equipment or signage by,
the City and any matters created by, joined in, rendered aqainst or
requested by Developer. Upon such re-conveyance/conveyance, City and
Developer shall adjust all revenues and expenses collected or incurred
under this Declaration as of the date of the re-conveyance/conveyance,
and City shall turn over to Developer or its designee control of the
segregated account into which Revenues are to be deposited pursuant to
this Declaration, and all monies therein, and City shall cooperate
with Developer or its designee in the orderly turn-over of control of
the Garage. The payment to be made by Developer to the City under
this subparagraph (viii) shall be paid in cash at the time of the
reconveyance/conveyance, and Developer shall be liable for payment of
any transfer taxes (documentary stamps, surtax or otherwise) that may
be payable on said transfer, if any are payable. At any time prior to
the reconveyance/conveyance contemplated hereby, Developer may rescind
its exercise of the right to require such reconveyance/conveyance.
Notwithstandinq anythinq to the contrary provided in this
Declaration, it is the intent of the Parties that the Developer's
riqht
to require a conveyance/reconveyance of the City's interests pursuant
to this subparaqraph 4(0) (viii) shall exist only under the limited
circumstance in which The Developer determines as aforestated that
~~ .~~ki.!lg Issues and a Resolution sa_~isfactory to the
Develope~ as aforestated has not been..found. This subparaqraph
4(0) (viii) is not intended._to afford Developer an.opportunity to
reacquire the City's interests solel~ take advantaqe of the
appreciation in the value or parkinq spaces or t~ recapture a larqer
share of the revenues qenerated from the Garaqe.
d. Standard for Operation. Developer shall operate,
maintain and replace, or cause to be operated, maintained and
replaced, all portions of Property (including the Retail Space) in a
first class manner. City shall operate access, validation and
collection systems for the Garage in a first class manner. All

MIAMI 699472.12699472.137198217084
3/J.'Jj05 1 :()1 PM8:08 AM
portions of the Property shall be operated in accordance with the
limitations contained in this Declaration.
e. Collection of Revenues and Allocation of Operating
Expenses.
(i) All revenues from the Retail Space shall be paid
to and be the sole property of Developer. All "operating expenses" of
the Retail Space shall be borne by Developer without contribution by
the City and without being paid from the Revenue of the Garage.
(ii) All revenues from the operation of the Garage
(the "Revenue"), including the Contribution, shall be deposited by
City and/or Developer, as applicable, in a dedicated bank account (the
"Operating Account") and no other sums shall be co-mingled with the
funds in said account (provided, however, that for expenses that are
partially allocable to the Garage and partially allocable to the
Retail Space, Developer may deposit money into the Operating Account
to cover the portion allocable to the Retail Space and then cut one
check to the applicable provider of service out of the Operating
Account). The Operating Account shall initially be funded with an
estimated three months of Operating Expenses, with the City funding
the City Fraction and the Developer funding the balance. One twelfth
of the annual Contribution shall be deposited in the Operating Account
not later than the fifth day of each month, in advance. All Revenues
of the garage that are collected by the City shall be deposited into
the Operating Account within one business day (revenues received on
Friday, weekends and legal holidays will be deposited no later than
the next business day) of their collection. If at any time the
Operating Account has insufficient sums to cover Operating Expenses,
the Parties shall deposit the deficiency within three (3) business
days after notice (said deposit being allocated to City based on the
City Fraction, with the balance to the Developer). If either Party
fails to pay any amount payable by it into the Operating Account when
due, said amount shall accrue interest from the date due until paid at
the Default Rate, and the Party not in default of its payment
obligation shall be entitled to Collection Costs for enforcement of
the other Party's payment obligation.
(iii) The Operating Account shall be set up so that it
is accessible by the City and Developer by computer, so that each will
at all times know the status of the Operating Account. The Operating
Account shall be established with the Institutional Lender holding the
financing encumbering the Retail Space or its designee, if required by
the terms of said financing, or otherwise with another Institutional
Lender (which shall be a bank or savings and loan association, unless
mutually agreed to the contrary) mutually and reasonably agreed to by
the Parties. City and Developer, each acting alone, will have
signatory authority on the Operating Account, although Developer shall
be the primary signatory and City shall not, without prior notice to

Developer, sign any check or other item pertaining to the Operating
Account as a signatory. The cost of maintaining, repairing, insuring,
and, when necessary, replacing those portions of the Property (or
components thereof), including the Garage, as enumerated on Schedule 1
attached hereto, in the percentages noted on said Schedule, whether or
not technically a part of the Retail Space (the "Operating Expenses"),
shall be allocated to the Garage and shall ultimately be payable by
the City and Developer in proportion to the number of City Spaces and
Retail Spaces owned by each from time to time in relation to the total
of all Retail Space and City Spaces in the Garage from time to time
(initially, the City will pay 535/1081=49.49% and Developer will pay
50.51% based on the contemplated 1081 total parking spaces in the
Garage; the City's share shall hereinafter be referred to as the "City
Fraction", and shall be adjusted from time to time if and at the time,
if any, that the ratio of City Spaces to Developer Spaces changes)
Operating Expenses shall include all of ~ll costs incurred for
preparing annual tax returns and financial statements for the
condominium association of which the Garage is a part and all of the
costs and fees, if any, payable to the Florida Division of
Condominiums on account of the Property being a condominium. Operating
Expenses shall also include any costs actually incurred by Developer
during the Extended Warranty Period, as hereinafter defined (and
Developer may issue its construction warranties, at no cost other than
the actual costs of warranty work performed to maintain, repair or
replace, for the period of time beyond the time frames that are
typical for commercial construction (the "Extended Warranty Period"),
to the extent extension of such time frames is required under the
Condominium Act of Florida, in lieu of the contractor extending its
construction warranties for such time frame) for performing any
warranty work during the Extended Warranty Period; if City contests
Developer's right to do so, Developer may repurchase all of the
City's interests in the Property (and any equipment and signage
utilized in connection with the operation of the Garage) for an amount
equal to one half of the amount of the City's Transit Facility
Contribution, less the portion thereof allocated to the Transit
Facility Dedication Area and the Transit Facility Dedication Area
Finishes, and adjusted to exclude payment for the City Elevator or any
City Spaces previously conveyed/reconveyed to Developer or lost
through condemnation, together with interest thereon at the lesser of
(X) the average yield on an annualized basis generated by investments
actually made by the City in accordance with the City's Investment
Policy and Procedure (designed to assure the preservation of
principal, a copy of which has been furnished to Developer) during the
like period of time or (Y) simple interest at the rate of 4% per
annum, in each case from the date of each disbursement until the date
paid, and City shall reconvey said interests to Developer within the
time frame and in accordance with the procedures set forth in section
4(c) (viii) above. To the extent any item of Operating Expense is not
enumerated on said Schedule 1, the Parties shall in good faith and
reasonably agree on an equitable allocation between the Retail Space
90
MIAMI 699472.12699472 13 7198217084
3/J.'Jj05 1:01 PM8:0S AM
..
and the Garage, using the methodology used for allocating the items
that are set forth on such Schedule 1. The Parties agree that
Operating Expenses shall include, without limitation, any insurance
deductibles (provided they are in accordance with Section 6(b) below)
~hen incurred and capital expenditures when paid, but shall not
include the costs of Initial Construction, any costs covered by
insurance or condemnation award proceeds that are actually collected,
or costs of correcting defective work or materials (except during any
extension period beyond one year for initial construction warranties
under the Condominium Act). Operating Expenses shall include the
costs of routine day to day maintenance of the City Elevator and
Transit Facility Dedication Area Finishes, such as sweeping and
cleaning. Operating Expenses shall specifically exclude all other
maintenance costs (including the costs of a service contract for
maintenance of the City Elevator, which service contract shall be
subject to City's reasonable approval), and all costs of repairing and
replacing, the City Elevator and Transit Facility Dedication Area
Finishes, which shall be paid for in full by the City based on a
budget reasonably approved by the City and reconciled annually.
(iv) Developer shall consult and coordinate with City
in preparing an annual budget for Revenue and Operating Expenses,
which budget shall be prepared and finalized (with the approval, not
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, of City and Developer)
at least 60 days before the year end for the prior budget (the budget
year shall be the calendar year unless mutually agreed to the
contrary), or the budget for the prior year shall govern for purposes
of the monthly budgeted payments to be made for the next calendar year
(until a budget for the current year is furnished and approved,
subject to quarterly and cumulative year-end reconciliation to reflect
actual costs). The budget as so finalized shall include City's
figures for personnel and any other expenses incurred or anticipated
to be incurred by City. City shall promptly notify Developer if the
actual personnel or other costs incurred by it deviate by more that 5%
from the amount reflected on such approved budget. Developer shall
provide City with quarterly and annual reconciliations, including
reasonably requested supporting documentation, within 30 days after
the end of each quarter (60 days in the case of the annual
reconciliation) and the amount of any adjustment resulting from such
reconciliation shall be paid by the applicable Party to the other
within 30 days after the applicable reconciliation is furnished to
City. Developer agrees that the costs incurred by it for Operating
Expenses (and City agrees that the costs incurred by it for personnel
or other.li8e) shall be consistent with the costs incurred by similar
facilities of similar_size_in the vicinity of the Property (City
facilities, in the case of costs to be incurred by the City), taking
into consideration the nature of the materials utilized in the
construction of the Property and the levels of use of the Property.
In order to allow Developer and City to verify the charges made by the
other hereunder, each agrees to make its books and records solely
91
MIAMI 699472.12699472.13 7198217084
3/J.1J05 1 :()\ PM8:08 AM
pertaining to such charges available for inspection at reasonable
times and on reasonable advance notice for review by the other, no
more than three ~times per year, upon notice furnished to the Party
whose records are being reviewed, within 180 days after receipt of the
annual reconciliation for the applicable year (and the audit must
proceed promptly thereafter and be completed within 1 year after
receipt of the annual reconciliation for the applicable year). An
audit or review shall be performed annually by City or Developer
personnel or an independent certified public accountant reasonably
acceptable to City and Developer and who is not paid on a contingent
fee basis. In the event either Party is successful in disputing any
amount paid by it under protest, the successful Party shall be
entitled to reimbursement of such amount, together with interest
thereon from the date paid until the date reimbursed at the Default
Rate.
(v) In connection with the quarterly and annual
reconciliations to be effected as provided in (iv) above, any amounts
in the Operating Account into which Revenues are deposited in excess
of those reasonably needed or projected to be needed to pay Operating
Expenses thereafter coming due (taking into consideration Revenues
that will be added to such account thereafter) shall be distributed to
the Parties in the same proportions as Operating Expenses are paid by
the Parties.
(vi) It is the intention of the foregoing provisions
that City shall ultimately receive and retain that portion of all
Revenue that is equal to the City Fraction, that City shall ultimately
pay that portion of all Operating Expenses equal to the City Fraction,
and that Developer shall ultimately receive and retain the remaining
Revenues and be liable for the remaining Operating Expenses.
(vii) Following each annual reconciliation, and
subject to any audit adjustments, Developer shall distribute to City
and Developer any amounts in the Operating Account over the then
estimated three months projected Operating Expenses. This
distribution will not occur until the budget for the next ensuing year
has been approved in final form by the Parties.
f. Remedies. If either Party breaches its obligation to
operate, maintain, repair and, when necessary, replace as set forth in
this Declaration, the other Party may send written notice to such
breaching Party and, if such obligations are not performed by the
breaching Party within 15 days from receipt of such notice (if not
reasonably capable of being fully performed within 15 days, such time
frame shall be extended for such reasonable additional time as may be
needed to perform so long as performance commences within such 15 day
period and proceeds continuously, in good faith and with due diligence
until completion), then the Party giving notice shall have the right
(without limiting any other rights that may be available) to perform
92
MIAMI 699472.12699472.13 7198217084
3/~7J05 1:()J PM8:08 AM
such obligations and bill the breaching Party for the reasonable costs
of such performance. If the breaching Party shall not pay such bill
within 15 days of receipt, then interest shall accrue on the unpaid
amount from the time it was expended until paid at the Default Rate,
and the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to Collection Costs for
enforcement of the breaching Party's payment obligation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of an emergency, the
notice and opportunity to cure provided above shall not be required
but, rather, only such notice as may be reasonable under the
circumstances shall be required (including telephonic notice or no
notice at all); the Party relying upon the provisions of this sentence
shall only perform such work as is reasonably necessary to stabilize
the situation and eliminate the emergency situation, and all other or
additional work shall require notice and opportunity to cure as
provided above. The provisions of this subparagraph shall
specifically, without limitation, be applicable to the remedying of
violations of Legal Requirements by the respective Parties as
elsewhere provided in this Declaration.
5. Taxes.
a. Developer shall pay, with the maximum allowable
discount, all taxes and assessments, real and personal, whether
general or special, levied against the Retail Space, the Developer
Spaces, the Developer Unit and their respective components. The
Parties acknowledge that, due to the City's ownership of the City
Spaces, the City Unit, the City Elevator and the equipment and signage
for the Garage operation, they should be entitled to an exemption from
real estate and personal property taxes and assessments (except,
potentially, for the City Non-Supermarket Spaces). Developer agrees
to cooperate with City, at no cost to Developer, in attempting to
realize said exemption. To the extent an exemption from taxes is not
available, City shall pay, with the maximum allowable discount, all
taxes and assessments, real and personal, whether general or special,
levied against the City Spaces and its components; provided, however,
that if supermarket use in the Retail Space is changed to another use,
Developer shall payor reimburse the City for any taxes and
assessments for the City Supermarket Spaces that the City would
otherwise be obligated to pay if the City Non-Supermarket Spaces are
at the time exempt (i.e. if the current exemption for the City Non-
Supermarket Spaces is eliminated, the foregoing proviso shall be
inapplicable). To the extent an exemption from taxes is not available
in respect of the City Unit, the equipment and signage for the Garage
operation or the City Elevator, the taxes and assessments related
thereto, and its components, shall be included in Operating Expenses.
b. The foregoing shall not preclude either City or
Developer from contesting taxes, so long as appropriate steps are
taken to prevent a sale of the Property on account of non-payment
93
MIAMI 699472.12699472.13 7198217084
3/J.'Jj05 1:0\ PM8:08 AM
thereof. The Party appealing taxes shall be responsible for the full
costs for any such appeal.
c. With respect to assessments only, the foregoing shall
not preclude payment in installments, to the extent available:
d. Each Party agrees to cooperate with all reasonable
requests of the other in an attempt to have any portion of the
Property reasonably requested by the other, or any component thereof,
separately assessed for tax purposes.
e. If either Party breaches its payment obligations under
this paragraph, the other Party shall have the right, but not the
obligation, at any time thereafter, to remedy the breach by paying the
applicable amount to the applicable authority, and any such payment
shall accrue interest at the Default Rate from the date paid until the
date repaid, and the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to
Collection Costs for enforcement of the breaching Party's payment
obligation.
6. Insurance and Restoration.
a. Types of Insurance. Developer (and, in the case of (iv)
below, City, unless City is entitled by law and elects to self insure
this coverage, in which case the City shall be liable for all matters
that would have been covered had City maintained such coverage as if
it were maintaining such coverage) shall maintain at all times while
this Declaration remains in effect, at its cost but subject to
contribution as Operating Expenses (equitably allocated between the
Retail Space and Garage as contemplated by Schedule 1 attached hereto
or Section 4(e) (iii) hereto), the following:
(i) "special form" insurance on the Property
(including in respect of the Garage equipment initially purchased and
installed by City, and any replacements thereof) against all risks of
physical loss or damage (including windstorm) in an amount not less
than 100% of full replacement cost (excluding excavation, foundations
and footings), with an agreed amount endorsement if coverage is by way
of a blanket policy. Said policy shall include demolition and debris
removal coverage;
(ii) commercial general liability insurance (including
blanket contractual liability, personal injury and advertising injury,
and, if applicable, liquor liability) covering the Property in amounts
of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence in the aggregate, $1,000,000
products liability and completed operations aggregate and $10,000,000
excess umbrella coverage;
(iii) at all times during which construction is being
performed by it in connection with the Property, builder's risk

.
insurance with limits of coverage not less than that specified in
subparagraph (i) above, independent contractor's insurance and blanket
contractual liability insurance with limits of coverage not less than
that specified in subparagraph (ii) above. In addition, owner's and
contractor's protective insurance with a minimum coverage of
$1,000,000 shall be required unless all contractors performing work in
connection with such construction maintain no less than $1,000,000 of
general liability insurance, naming the Parties and their mortgagees
as additional insureds and satisfying the standards set forth
elsewhere in this Declaration for insurance to be maintained by the
Parties. City Jh~ll m~int~in Juch co~er~ge ~t ~ll timeJ during "hich
conotruotion io being performed by it in connection "ith the Property;
(iv) worker's compensation insurance at legally
required levels and employer's liability insurance in an amount not
less than $1,000,000 for the benefit of all employees entering upon
the Property as a result of or in connection with their employment by
the Party maintaining such coverage or any agent, representative,
licensee or contractor of such Party (or where such Party is otherwise
legally liable);
(v) insurance against loss or damage by boiler or
compressor or internal explosion of a boiler or compressor if such
items shall be located on the Property with limits of coverage not
less than that specified in subparagraph (i) above;
(vi) rent loss/business interruption insurance for up
to 18 months, if reasonably available, in respect of the Revenue
generated from the Garage, as mutually and reasonably agreed upon by
the Parties; and
(vii) such other insurance including, without
limitation, flood, plate glass, malicious mischief and
wrongful/discriminatory termination insurance, and in such amounts,
and such increases to the foregoing coverages, as are customarily
maintained with respect to facilities similar in construction,
location and use to the facilities located on the Property.
b. Standards for Insurance. The policies provided for in
subparagraph (a) may contain a reasonable deductible, not to exceed
$50,000 for property perils (excluding windstorm), 2% of value for
windstorm peril, $100,000 for flood and earthquake perils and $10,000
for general liability coverage, unless both Parties approve of higher
or different deductibles in their reasonable discretion. The policies
maintained shall name each Party and any mortgagees of such Party of
which notice has been provided as additional n~med insureds (in the
case of casualty and liability policies) and copies of the policies
and certificates of insurance shall be provided to all named insureds
promptly upon request. The insurance companies providing insurance
shall have a Best's rating of not less than A(-)VII (or its
95
MIAMI 699472.\2699472.\3 7198217084
3/J.1J05 1 :()I PM8:08 AM
,.
equivalent) at the time each policy is acquired or renewed. Each
policy of casualty and liability insurance shall contain a waiver of
subrogation rights against the other Party, its mortgagee(s) and
tenant(s), and their respective agents, employees and representatives;
and each Party, for itself and for its mortgagee(s) and tenant(s) and
their respective agents, employees and representatives, waives any
liability that the other Party or its mortgagee(s) or tenant(s) or
their respective agents, employees or representatives might have which
was covered or would have been covered by the insurance provided for
in this subparagraph. The amount of any deductible shall be deemed an
Operating Expense (and shall be allocated between the Parties in the
same manner as insurance proceeds, of which the deductible is a
substitute). All insurance may be maintained through a blanket policy
or policies, and shall be reasonably allocated amongst the properties
covered and between the Garage and the Retail Space.
c. Remedies. In the event either Party fails to maintain the
insurance required hereunder, the other Party may, but shall not be
obligated to, obtain such insurance coverage for the breaching Party
and the breaching Party shall, within 15 days of demand therefor,
reimburse the other for the reasonable cost thereof. If the breaching
Party fails to do so, interest shall accrue on the amount owed at the
Default Rate from the date paid until the date reimbursed, and the
Non-breaching Party shall be entitled to Collection Costs for
enforcement of the breaching Party's payment obligation.
d. Casualty. In the event any portion of the Property, or any
components thereof, is damaged or destroyed by reason of casualty,
Developer shall promptly, in good faith and with due diligence, settle
the loss (including pursuing funding of the insurance proceeds) and
thereafter promptly restore the damaged or destroyed portion to at
least the following extent: (i) the Property shall be restored to
substantially the condition thcy .Jcrcit was in prior to the damage or
destruction (provided, that if restoration to substantially the
condition they were in prior to the damage or destruction is not then
permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, restoration shall be to as
nearly the condition they were in prior to the damage or destruction
as may then be permitted by applicable Legal Requirements) or (ii) the
damage or destruction can be restored to such different condition
(subject to the provisions of this Declaration, however, respecting
relocation of easements and other matters, the City Spaces shall be
restored in accordance with (i) above) and no change in the character
of the Property as a retail/restaurant/office project shall be
effected without the City's approval, which will not be unreasonably
withheld, delayed or conditioned) as the Developer may determine in
its sole discretion; and, further. The insurance proceeds payable on
account of damage or destruction to the Property shall first be
applied toward the restoration obligations set forth herein, and the
balance shall be disbursed to and retained by Developer as its sole
property. In the event Developer breaches its restoration obligations
96
MIAMI 699472.12699472.\3 7198217084

under this subparagraph or under paragraph 7 regarding restoration
after condemnation, the City, after 30 days prior written notice,
shall be entitled to perform such restoration at the Developer's
reasonable cost, and the Developer shall reimburse the amounts so
incurred, together with interest thereon from the date paid until the
date reimbursed at the Default Rate, promptly upon demand, and City
shall be entitled to Collection Costs for enforcement of the
Developer's payment obligation.
7. Condemnation.
a. In the event all or any portion of the Property, or
any component thereof, is condemned or taken through eminent domain,
by deed in lieu thereof or by any other means, Developer shall (eJCcept

b. If any parking spaces are taken, or any portion of the
Garage lS taken such that parking spaces must be reconfigured in
Developer's sole but reasonably exercised business judgment in order
for them to be useable and, as a result of such reconfiguration, there
is a loss of parking spaces, the number of parking spaces so taken or
lost as a result of reconfiguration shall first be applied to reduce
the number of City Spaces (and if Retail Spaces are taken or lost,
City shall re-convey to Developer (or its designee) the number of City
Spaces required to implement the foregoing allocation (and if all City
Spaces are lost or re-conveyed (or the number of City Spaces remaining
after the taking and any reconfiguration is less than 100), City shall
also convey any remaining City Spaces and the City Unit, City Elevator
and all equipment and signage utilized in connection with the
operation of the Garage to Developer (or its designee), regardless of
the amount paid for, or who paid for or installedb same, and the
City's rights in respect of this Declaration shall terminate and vest
in Developer (or its designee) upon payment to the City of the payment
provided for herein), which re-conveyance (and equipment and signage
conveyance, if applicable) shall be free and clear of all liens and
encumbrances other than those existing when Developer originally
conveyed the spaces to the City (or when City acquired the equipment
or signage) and any matters created by, joined in, rendered aqainst or
requested by Developer). As City's sole remcdyaward for the lost/re-
conveyed spaces and/or the City Elevator, City shall be entitled to
payment of an amount equal to (i) in the case of loss/re-conveyance of
the City Elevator, an amount equal to the City's Transit Facility
Contribution attributable to the City Elevator without interest or
(ii) in the case of lost/re-conveyed spaces, an amount per City Space
lost (including by way of re-conveyance to Developer (or its designee)
or otherwise) as a result of the taking or reconfiguration as provided
herein equal to the greater of (A) the Fair Market Value of each City
Space at the time of loss/re-conveyance multiplied by the Fraction or
(B) the City's Transit Facility Contribution attributable to the City
Spaces divided by 535 and multiplied by the number of City Spaces
98
MIAMI 699472.\2699472.13 7198217084

.
lost/reconveyed, without interest. In addition, upon a
loss/conveyance/re-conveyance of all City Space, twice (once for
Developer's unamortized costs and once for City's unamortized cost)
any remaining unamortized cost over the first 10 years that Developer
has not paid, as contemplated above, on all equipment and signage
utilized in connection with the operation of the Garage shall be paid
by DC7clopcr to the City. Developer shall be liable for payment of
any transfer taxes (documentary stamps, surtax or otherwise) that may
be payable on any such conveyance/re-conveyance, if any are payable.
The Parties acknowledge that the foregoing payment is not and will not
ncccoo~rily be reflective of fair market value or the amount that the
condemning authority would be obligated to pay for the City Elevator
or spaces so lost/re-conveyed, but is merelv intended as an agreed
upon ~pavment and allocation between the Parties which takes into
consideration various compromises between the Parties in respect of
the neqotiations that led UP to the enterinq into of this Aqreement
and the transaction evidenced hereby. There shall be no payment due
to City for the City Unit or, except as specifically provided above,
the equipment and signage to be conveyed by the City, if applicable.
From and after the date of such taking (or possession to the conveying
authority, if later), the percentages utilized for purposes of
calculating the relative contributions of the City and Developer in
respect of Operating Expenses and Revenues shall be adjusted
proportionately, effective as of the date of the taking or possession,
as applicable. In the event of a taking, the provisions of
subparagraph 6(d) of this Declaration shall apply as between City and
Developer and the portion of the Property that is not taken shall be
restored as required therein and the condemnation proceeds available
as a result of the condemnation shall be used for restoration as and
to the extent set forth therein for insurance proceeds.
c. Intentionally omitted.
d. Upon any condemnation that does not result in a termination
of the City's rights under this Declaration, Developer shall utilize.
so much of the condemnation award proceeds as may be received and
needed for restoration to restore the Garage to the condition called
for by Section 6(d) in the case of casualty.
8. "5th & Alton" Trade Name. City (only in its capacity as a
Party to this Declaration) acknowledges being advised of Developer's
proprietary interest in the trade name "5th & Alton" and will not
dispute same. City may use the name "5th & Alton as a locational
reference for the Garage, but shall not otherwise use such name. City
further agrees to comply, at no out of pocket cost to City, with any
requirements that Developer may reasonably impose from time to time in
order to protect its rights with respect to the "5th & Alton" trade
name.

9. Developer's Right of First Refusal to Purchase. If City
desires to sell all of it interests in the Property and enters into a
binding contract (which contains no continqencies (or in respect of
which all continGencies have expired) other than a continGencv for
exercise bv Developer of its riGht of first refusal) to do so (Seller
may not sell partial interests in the Property), Seller shall first
offer its interests in the Property to Developer (and said binding
contract shall be contingent on Developer not exercising its right of
first refusal), who may acquire same at the greater of (a) the full
amount of the City's Transit Facility Contribution, less the portion
thereof allocated to the Transit Facility Dedication Area and the
Transit Facility Dedication Area Finishes, and adjusted to exclude
payment for the City Elevator or any City Spaces previously
conveyed/reconveyed to Developer or lost through condemnation, without
interest or (b) Fair Market Value for each City Space multiplied by
the Fraction plus the City's Transit Facility Contribution
attributable to the City Elevator. There shall be no payment due to
City for the City Unit or, except as specifically provided in
Subparagraph 7(b) above, the equipment and signage to be conveyed by
the City. Developer shall have 30 days from the date City offers its
interest in the Property to Developer within which to elect to accept
such offer, which election shall be evidenced by a written acceptance
to the City. Once accepted, Developer shall close on the purchase of
City's interests in the Property by no later than the later of the
date provided for in the contract obtained by the City from a third
party (which triggered the rights of Developer under this paragraph)
or 60 days after acceptance by Developer, which time frame may be
extended by Developer for a reasonable additional period not to exceed
an additional 60 days in order to obtain funding for the acquisition.
Conveyance shall be free and clear of all liens and encumbrances other
than those existing when Developer originally conveyed the City Spaces
to the City (or when City acquired the equipment or signage to be
conveyed) and any matters created by, joined in, rendered aqainst or
requested by Developer). Income and expenses shall be prorated as of
the closing date. City may not sell parts of its interests in the
Property. This paragraph shall not apply to any conveyance by the
City to a successor governmental authority, but shall be binding on
such successor. This provision is agreed to in recognition of the
unique aspects of the public/private venture that the Parties
contemplate, and the fact that Developer would not have entered into a
transaction of this type with another private party. Accordingly,
City shall not have the right to object to provisions of this
paragraph on the grounds that the price to be paid is less than what
it would otherwise have received from a third party.
10. Miscellaneous.
a. Specific Performance. Anything to the contrary
contained in this Declaration notwithstanding, in the event of a

or discharge is sought.

to every other right or remedy provided for in this Declaration or now
or hereafter existing by law. The exercise or beginning of the

agreement contained in this Declaration shall be deemed separate and
independent and not dependent upon any other provisions of this
Declaration and the damages for failure to perform the same shall be
deemed in addition to and separate and independent of the damages

CITY'S RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER TO PURCHASE PROJECT
Developer hereby agrees that in the event Developer desires to sell all of the Property to an
unaffiliated third party, Developer shall first notify City of the material terms pursuant to which
Developer so desires to sell (the "Offer"), and City shall have 10 business days after receipt
thereof within which to elect in writing whether to pursue a transaction in accordance with the
terms of the Offer. The material terms pursuant to which Developer desires to sell shall be the
purchase price, terms and conditions and timing for payment of the purchase price, and timing
for closing. In the event City timely elects to pursue a transaction in accordance with the terms
of the Offer, Developer and City shall, within 30 days thereafter, negotiate the terms of a binding
contract that is consistent with the terms of the Offer and otherwise on terms reasonably
acceptable to Developer (terms that are customary for similar as-is transactions in the community
in which the Property is located, with no representations or warranties except of customary
limited matters that cannot be independently verified through other sources, shall be deemed
reasonable). In the event City fails to timely elect to pursue a transaction in accordance with the
terms of the Offer or, having done so, in the event the parties are unable to agree on the terms of
a binding contract in respect of same within said 30 day period, Developer shall be free to pursue
an offer from others on the terms set forth in the Offer and otherwise on terms acceptable to
Developer. Developer shall notify City of any material changes to the Offer that would make the
Offer more beneficial to City and City shall have five business days after receipt thereof to elect
to pursue the Offer, as modified, and if City timely so elects, the aforestated provisions regarding
negotiation of a binding contract shall be applicable (with the time frame reduced to 15 days,
however); provided, however, that, in the event the parties were previously unable to reach a
binding contract, the issues that prevented the parties from reaching such a binding contract shall
be resolved in favor of Developer in the event City elects to pursue the Offer, as modified.
The foregoing right of first offer shall not be applicable to sales to affiliates of Developer
(but after any such transfer shall be binding upon such affiliates), shall be void and of no further
force and effect upon default beyond applicable cure period by City under the terms of any
binding agreement respecting the Property that is entered into between Developer and City, or
affiliates thereof, in furtherance of the Offer, and shall be null and void and of no further force
and effect upon recording of any notice of the right of first offer contained herein by or on behalf
of City, including the filing of any notice of lis pendens in connection therewith.
The right of first offer contained herein is personal to Developer named herein and its
affiliates, on the one hand, and City, on the other hand, and shall be of no further force and effect
from and after twelve (12) years from the Effective Date. In amplification ofthe foregoing, the
right of first offer contained herein shall not be binding on any party unaffiliated with Developer
named herein that may acquire the Property or any portion thereof, including Developer's lender
or a purchaser at foreclosure.
Notices under this right of first offer shall be given in the manner provided for in the
Development Agreement to which this right of first offer is an exhibit.

(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and paralegals' fees and costs at all tribunal
levels) incurred by Developer in the event that (a) a cloud on title to Developer's interest in any
