Neighborhood 3 under the development plan set forth in West Coyote Hills Specific Plan Amendment # 8 and VTTM 17609. The fair market value shall be established through a valuation process conducted in conformity with the Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions as applied to said development plan.
The valuation process described below shall commence no later than Final Administrative Action and be completed by January 15, 2016. In this process the City and the Property Owner shall each obtain its own appraisal of Neighborhood 3 by November 30, 2015.
If the fair market value figures in the two appraisals differ by 10% or less of the amount of the higher appraisal, the fair market value of Neighborhood 3 shall be deemed to be the average of the two appraisals. If the fair market value figures in the two appraisals differ by more than 10% but less than 20% of the amount of the higher appraisal, the two appraisers shall jointly select a third appraiser to conduct a review appraisal by January 15, 2016, and the third appraiser's opinion of value shall be deemed to be the fair market value of Neighborhood 3 ( provided, however, that in no event shall the third appraiser' s determination of the fair market value of Neighborhood 3 be outside the range of the City's and Property Owner's initial appraisals or, if it is, the purchase price shall be deemed to be the appraisal amount as determined by the appraiser retained by the City or the Property Owner whose appraisal is closest to the fair market value figure arrived at by the third appraiser). If the fair market value figures in the two appraisals differ by 200% or more of the amount of the higher appraisal, the City and Property Owner shall immediately meet and confer to discuss the reasons therefore, including the assumptions and methodology used, and to seek to resolve the purchase price forthwith.
Each appraisal prepared pursuant to this Condition L. 1. iii shall be based upon the following assumptions and hypothetical conditions and such other assumptions and hypothetical conditions that the appraiser( s) determine to be fair and reasonable: ( 1) the date of value will be the date each appraiser renders his/ her valuation determination; ( 2) the development costs will be estimated and prepared in a manner that is consistent with the report previously prepared by Mote Companies dated July 10, 2013, and any update thereto, copies of which will be provided to each appraiser; ( 3) in

the absence of acquisition by the City, the lots/ pads/ homes in Neighborhood 3 would be completed in substantial conformity with the plans, mix, and specifications set forth in the " Strategic Market Analysis in Support of Appraisal for West Coyote Hills in Fullerton, CA" prepared by The Concord Group (" TCG") for the Property Owner dated July 30, 2013, and any update thereto, copies of which will be provided to each appraiser; ( 4) in the absence of acquisition by the City, the lots/ pads/ homes in Neighborhood 3 would be marketed and sold consistent with the market analysis prepared by The Concord Group referred to in clause ( 3) above; 5) Neighborhood 3 is assumed to be in compliance with applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and policies relating to contamination by hazardous materials and substances and no costs for remediation of any such materials or substances will be included; and ( 6) the cost of performing the mitigation measures relating to the coastal sage scrub habitat on and adjacent to Neighborhood 3 is the responsibility of the Property Owner and has no effect on the fair market value of Neighborhood 3. In addition, in the event the closing of the sale of Neighborhood 3 occurs more than one ( 1) year after the date on which the Property Owner and City enter into the final purchase and sale agreement for Neighborhood 3, as set forth in Condition L. 4. i, the purchase price for Neighborhood 3 shall be adjusted in accordance with the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index ( All Items) published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, for the geographical region in which the City is situated ( as used throughout these Conditions of Approval, the CPI") between the date of said agreement and the Neighborhood 3 closing date.
iv. Entire Proiect Site: Appraisal and Purchase Price. The Property Owner shall also make the Entire Project Site available for potential acquisition by the City. Subject to the possible CPI adjustment set forth below, the City' s purchase price for the Entire Project Site shall be the fair market value based upon the highest and best use of the Entire Project Site under the development plan set forth in West Coyote Hills Specific Plan Amendment # 8 and VTTM 17609.
The fair market value shall be established through a valuation process conducted in conformity with the Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions as applied to said development plan. The valuation process shall commence no later than Final Administrative Action and be completed by January 15, 2016. In this process the City and the Property Owner shall each obtain its own appraisal of the Entire Project Site no later than November 30, 2015. If the fair market value figures in the two appraisals differ by 10% or less of the amount of the higher appraisal, the fair market value of the Entire Project Site shall be

Res. No. 2015- 62 - Exhibit A
deemed to be the average of the two appraisals. If the fair market value figures in the two appraisals differ by more than 10% but less than 20% of the amount of the higher appraisal, the two appraisers shall jointly select a third appraiser to conduct a review appraisal by January 15, 2016, and the third appraiser' s opinion of value shall be deemed to be the fair market value of the Entire Project Site provided, however, that in no event shall the third appraiser' s determination of the fair market value of the Entire Project Site be outside the range of the City' s and Property Owner' s initial appraisals or, if it is, the purchase price shall be deemed to be the appraisal amount as determined by the appraiser retained by the City or the Property Owner whose appraisal is closest to the fair market value figure arrived at by the third appraiser). If the fair market value figures in the two appraisals differ by 20% or more of the amount of the higher appraisal, the City and the Property Owners shall immediately meet and confer to discuss the reasons therefore, including the assumptions and methodology used, and to seek to resolve the purchase price forthwith.
Each appraisal prepared pursuant to this Condition L. 1. iv shall be based upon the following assumptions and hypothetical conditions and such other assumptions and hypothetical conditions that the appraiser( s) determine to be fair and reasonable: ( 1) the date of value will be the date each appraiser renders his/ her valuation determination; ( 2) the development costs will be estimated and prepared in a manner that is consistent with the report previously prepared by Mote Companies dated July 10, 2013, and any update thereto, copies of which will be provided to each appraiser; ( 3) in the absence of acquisition of the Entire Project Site by the City, the lots/ pads/ homes in the Entire Project Site would be completed in substantial conformity with the plans, mix, and specifications set forth in the " Strategic Market Analysis in Support of Appraisal for West Coyote Hills in Fullerton, CA" prepared by The Concord Group (" TCG") for the Property Owner dated July 30, 2013, any update thereto, copies of which will be provided to each appraiser; 4) in the absence of acquisition of the Entire Project Site by the City, the lots/ pads/ homes in the Entire Project Site would be marketed and sold consistent with the market analysis prepared by The Concord Group referred to in clause ( 3) above; and ( 5) the Entire Project Site is assumed to be in compliance with applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and policies relating to contamination by hazardous materials and substances, and no costs for any remediation of any such materials or substances will be included in the appraisal. In addition, in the event the closing of the sale of the Entire Project Site occurs more than one ( 1) year after the date on which the Property Owner and City enter into the final purchase and sale agreement for the Entire Project Site, as set

The Property Owner shall dismiss the Lawsuit with prejudice within ten ( 10) business days after the Final Approval Date, contingent upon the City and the Property Owner entering into a binding stipulation and agreement that said dismissal shall have no res judicata or collateral estoppel effect as to any rights, claims, and causes of action pursuant to or arising under the 1977 Agreement, to the extent such rights are not waived or released and are reserved by the Property Owner as set forth in Condition 31 above.
33. Final grading design for all residential and commercial lots shall be accomplished in such a manner as to direct storm water run-off to the adjoining roadway, private or public.

Failure or delay by either party in delivering a Notice of Default shall not waive that party' s right to deliver a future Notice of Default of the same or any other Default.
9. Specific Performance Remedy.
Due to the size, nature, and scope of the WCH Project, the Parties acknowledge it would not be practical or possible to restore the real property underlying the WCH Project to its pre- existing condition once implementation of this License Agreement has begun.
Property Owner and City have invested significant time and resources and performed extensive planning and processing of the WCH Project and in agreeing to the terms of this License Agreement, and will be investing additional significant time and resources in implementing the WCH Project in reliance upon the terms of this License Agreement. It is not possible to determine the sum of money which would adequately compensate Property Owner or City for such efforts; and, for these reasons, the City and Property Owner agree that monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy if either City or Property Owner fails to carry out its obligations under this License Agreement.
Accordingly, the City and Property Owner stipulate and agree that specific performance of this License Agreement is necessary if the other Party fails to carry out its obligations under this License Agreement.
10. Indemnity of Third Party Claims.

City shall promptly notify Property Owner of any such Claim and City shall cooperate with Property Owner in the defense of such Claim. If City fails to promptly notify Property Owner of such Claim, Property Owner shall not be responsible to indemnify, defend, and hold City harmless from such Claim until Property Owner is so notified; and if City fails to cooperate in the defense of a Claim, Property Owner shall not be responsible to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City during the period that City so fails to cooperate or for any losses attributable thereto. Property Owner shall be entitled to control the defense of such Claim; provided, however, that Property Owner shall not have the authority to unilaterally modify or change this License Agreement and Property Owner shall have no authority to bind City to taking any further actions with respect thereto except with City' s prior written consent, which consent City may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. Property Owner shall have the right to choose legal counsel to defend the Claim ( subject to such counsel' s compliance with any applicable conflict of interest or ethical rules that apply) and Property Owner shall pay any attorneys' fees, expert witness fees, costs, interest, and other amounts that may be awarded against City or Property Owner, or both, resulting from the Claim. Property Owner shall keep City informed of the status of any pending or threatened Claim upon City' s request and promptly after there is any change in the status of the Claim.

This License Agreement shall not prevent or limit Property Owner in any manner, in Property Owner' s sole discretion, from encumbering the City License Area or any portion thereof or any improvement thereon by any mortgage, deed of trust, or other security device securing financing with respect to the City License Area; provided however that at the time any portion of the City License Area is to be dedicated to and accepted by the City, any financing encumbrances established by Property Owner must be satisfied and discharged by Property Owner. City acknowledges that lenders providing such financing may require certain License Agreement interpretations and modifications, and agrees upon request, from time to time, to meet with Property Owner and representatives of such lenders to negotiate in good faith any such request for interpretation or modification. City shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any such requested interpretation provided such interpretation is consistent with the intent and purposes of this License Agreement; provided, however, that City reserves its legislative discretion with respect to making any modifications to this License Agreement and Property Owner agrees to promptly pay or reimburse City for any City costs incurred with respect to its consideration of any such interpretations and modifications, whether or not the same are approved. Any mortgagee of the property shall be entitled to the following rights and privileges:
a. Neither entering into this License Agreement nor a breach of this License Agreement shall defeat, render invalid, diminish, or impair the lien of any mortgage on the property made in good faith and for value, unless otherwise required by law.
b. The mortgagee of any mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the property, or any part thereof, which mortgagee has submitted a request in writing to City in the manner specified for giving notices, shall be entitled to receive written notification from City of any Default by Property Owner in the performance of Property Owner' s obligations under this License Agreement. c. If City timely receives a request from a mortgagee requesting a copy of any Notice of Default given to Property Owner under the terms of this License Agreement, City shall provide a copy of that Notice of Default to the mortgagee within ten ( 10) days of sending the Notice of Default to Property Owner. The mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure the Default during the remaining Cure Period allowed such party under this License Agreement. d. Any mortgagee who comes into possession of the City License Area, or any part thereof, pursuant to foreclosure of the mortgage or deed of trust, or deed in lieu of such foreclosure, shall take the City License Area, or part thereof, subject to the terms of this License Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this License Agreement to the contrary, no mortgagee shall have an obligation or duty under this License Agreement to perform any of Property Owner' s obligations or other affirmative covenants of Property Owner thereunder, or to guarantee such performance; provided, however, that to the extent that any covenant to be 13 performed by Property Owner is a condition precedent to the performance of a covenant by City, the performance thereof shall continue to be a condition precedent to City' s performance under this License Agreement.

Mitigation Monitoring Program
Project: Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 17609
PRJ03- 00075/ VTTM- 17609
October 1, 2015
INTRODUCTION
The City of Fullerton will adopt this Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program ( MMRP) in accordance with the Public Resources code ( PRC) Section 21086. 6 and Section 15097 of the California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) Guidelines. The purpose of the MMRP is to ensure that the Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 17609 ( Revised Project), which is the subject of Addendum No. to the Final Environmental Impact Report FEIR) certified by the City Council on July 12, 2011, complies with all applicable environmental mitigation requirements. The MMRP reflects the mitigation measures prescribed for the Revised Project. Within this document, mitigation measures are organized and referenced by subject category and include those for: ( 1) Traffic and Circulation; ( 2) Noise; ( 3) Air Quality; ( 4) Soils and Geology; ( 5) Population and Housing 6) Cultural/ Scientific Resources; ( 7) Public Services and Utilities; ( 8) Public Health and Safety; ( 9) Hydrology and Flood Control; ( 10) Aesthetics; 11) Biological Resources; and ( 12) Climate Change ( Greenhouse Gas Emissions). Each measure has a numerical reference related to the FEIR and/ or Addendum No. 1 prepared for the project. Specific mitigation measures are identified, as well as the method and timing of verification and the responsible party that will ensure that each action is implemented.
Mitigation measures applicable to the project include avoiding certain impacts altogether, minimizing impacts by limiting the degree or magnitude of the action and its implementation, rectifying impacts by repairing, rehabilitating, or restoring the affected environment; and/ or reducing or eliminating impacts over time by preservation and maintenance operations during the life of the action.
Public Resources Code Section 21086. 6 requires the Lead Agency, for each project that is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act, to monitor performance of the mitigation measures included in any environmental document to ensure that implementation does, in fact, take place.
The City of Fullerton is the designated lead agency for the MMRP. The City is responsible for review of all monitoring reports, enforcement actions, and document disposition. The City will rely on information provided by the monitor as accurate and up-to-date and will field check mitigation measure status as required.
The custodian of the documents comprising the record of proceedings is the City of Fullerton, Director of Community Development, 303 West Commonwealth Avenue, Fullerton, CA, 92832. Copies of all these documents, which constitute the record of proceedings upon which the City' s decision is based, are and at all relevant times have been available upon request at the office of the Fullerton Community Development Department, the custodian for such documents or other materials.
