Such property damage and personal injury insurance will also provide for and protect Authority against incurring any reasonable legal cost in defend ing claims for alleged loss. Such personal injury and property damage insurance will be maintained in full force and effect during the t erm of the Authority Loans in the following amounts: commercial general liability in a general aggregate amount of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000); and not less than Two Million Dollars ($ 2,000,000) of bodily injury and property damage insurance . Developer agrees that provisions of this paragraph as to maintenance of insurance will not be construed as limiting in any way the extent to which Developer may be held responsible for the indemnification of Authority or the payment of damages to persons or property resulting from Developer’s activities, activities of its tenants or the activi ties of any other person or persons for which Developer is otherwise responsible. Developer will require its insurer to waive its subrogation rights against the Authority and the City and will provide endorsements evidencing same. (iv) Workers’ Compensation Insurance: Developer will maintain or cause to be maintained workers’ compensation insurance issued by a responsible carrier authorized under the laws of the State of California to insure employers against liability for compensation under the workers’ compensation laws now in force in California, or any laws hereafter enacted as an amendment or supplement thereto or in lieu thereof. Such work ers’ compensation insurance will cover all persons employed by Developer in connection with the Property and will cover liability within statutory limits for compensation under any such act aforesaid, based upon death or bodily injury claims made by, for or on behalf of any person incurring or suffering injury or death in connection with the Property or the operation thereof by Developer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Developer may, in compliance with the laws of the State of California and in lieu of maintaining such insurance, self -insure for workers ’ compensation in which event Lessee will deliver to Authority evidence that such self-insurance has been approved by the appropriate State authorities. If Developer is required to maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance under this paragraph, Developer will furnish the Authority with a certificate of waiver of subrogation under the terms of the Workers’ Compensation Insurance. Developer will require its general contractor to waive subrogation and will require that its subcontractors waive subrogation to the extent that such a waiver is commercially available.

Such insurance must have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect prior to Completion , and cover Developer for all claims made by the Authority arising out of any acts or omissions of Developer, or its officers, employees or agents prior to Completion. g. If Developer fails or refuses to procure or maintain insurance as required by this Agreement, Authority will have the right, at Authority ’s election, and upon ten (10) days prior notice to Developer, to procure and maintain such insurance.

Except as provided in this Agreement, the Authority neither undertakes nor assumes nor will have any responsibility or duty to Developer or to any third party to review, inspect, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform Developer or any third party of any matter in connection with the Property, whether with respect to the quality, adequacy or suitability of the plans, any labor, service, equipment or material furnished to the Project, any person furnishing the same or otherwise. Developer and all third parties will rely upon its or their own judgment regarding such matters, and any review, inspection, supervision, exercise of judgment or information supplied to Developer or to any third party by the Authority or the City in connection with such matter is for the public purpose of providing affordable housing, and neither Developer (except for the purposes set forth in this Agreement) nor any third party is entitled to rely thereon.

Section 4.14 Permits
Before commencement of construction or development of any buildings, structures or other work of improvement upon any portion of the Property, Developer will, at its own expense, secure or cause to be secured, any and all permits which may be required by the City or any other governmental authority affected by such construction, development or work.

Section 4.15 Rights of Access
Commencing upon the Closing, representatives of the Authority and the City will have the reasonable right of access to the Property, upon two (2) business days’ written notice to Developer (except in the case of an emergency, in which case Authority will provide such notice, if any, as may be practical under the circumstances), without charges or fees, at normal construction hours during the period of construction for the purposes of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the inspection of the work being performed in constructing the improvements.

Section 4.16 Taxes, Assessments, Encumbrances and Liens Commencing upon the Closing, Developer will pay prior to delinquency all real estate taxes and assessments assessed and levied on or against the Property.

Section 4.17 Rights to Plans
All work product prepared pursuant to this Agreement, including (but not limited to), all Plans, construction documents, soils tests and similar reports, permits and other entitlements are hereby assigned to the Authority as security for Developer’s obligations hereunder. In the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Authority, Developer will, within ten (10) business days of such termination, transmit all such work product to the Authority.

Section 4.18 Release of Construction Covenants
a. Promptly after Completion, as generally and specifically required by this Agreement and in particular the Scope of Development, the Authority will furnish Developer with a Release of Construction Covenants upon written request therefor by Developer. The Authority will not unreasonably withhold such Release of Construction Covenants and such Release of Construction Covenants will be issued so long as Developer has constructed and developed the Property in accordance with this Agreement and substantially in accordance with the Plans approved by the Authority pursuant hereto. Such Release of Construction Covenants will be, and will so state, conclusive determination of satisfactory completion of all of the construction required by this Agreement.
b. The Release of Construction Covenants will be in such form as to permit it to be recorded in the official records of Los Angeles County. No Release of Construction Covenants will be recorded for less than the completed Improvements and development of the entire Property. c. If the Authority refuses or fails to furnish a Release of Construction Covenants for the Property after written request from Developer, the Authority will, within thirty (30) days of the written request, provide Developer with a written statement of the reasons the Authority refused or failed to furnish a Release of Construction Covenants. The statement will also contain the Authority’s opinion of the action Developer must take to obtain a Release of Construction Covenants. If the reason for such refusal is confined to the immediate availability of specific items or materials for landscaping, and/or minor items, the Authority will issue its Release of Construction Covenants upon the posting of a bond by Developer with the Authority in an amount representing a fair value of the work not yet completed. If the Authority will have failed to provide such written statement within said 30-day period, Developer will be deemed to have received the Release of Construction Covenants.
d. The Release of Construction Covenants will not constitute evidence of compliance with or satisfaction of any obligation of Developer to the beneficiary of the Construction Loan Deed of Trust or any other P erson. The Release of Construction Covenants is not a notice of completion as referred to in Section 3093 of the California Civil Code.

Developer’s failure to timely submit the Quarterly Reports , after the Authority has provided written notice to Developer and at least seven business days to cure such failure, will, at the discretion of the Authority, cause the imposition of a monetary penalty of $500 to be paid to the Authority. The Authority Executive Director, in his sole discretion may waive the requirement of the Quarterly Report for one or more quarterly reporting periods.

However, such waiver will not operate to waive any subsequent requirement of the Quarterly Report for the Restricted Period upon written notice to Developer by the Authorit y Executive Director.

In the event the Developer fails to maintain the Property and the Improvements in accordance with the approved Maintenance Program, and does not cure such failure within thirty (30) days following notice from the Authority , with such additional time as may be reasonably necessary to cure such default provided that Developer has commenced to cure within such thirty (30) day period and i s diligently prosecuting the cure to completion, the Authority will have the right, but not the obligation, to enter the Property, correct any violation, and hold the Developer responsible for the cost thereof, and such cost, until paid, will constitute a lien on the Property. Prior to undertaking any work to correct any such maintenance deficiency, the Authority will provide written notice that the Developer must correct the deficiency within a reasonable time. The Developer will have a reasonable time in which to comply following such notice from the Authority.

Prior to lease-up of the Project, Developer must identify the street address and unit number of the units that will be operated as HOME Units and HOME ARP Units. Proposed changes to such units must be approved in advance by the Authority. Each substituted unit must be comparable in terms of size, features, and number of bedrooms to the originally designated HOME Units or HOME ARP Unit.
iii. Rent for the HOME Units shall not exceed HOME Rents. “ Home Rents” means maximum rent, including a reasonable utility allowance for utilities and services (excluding telephone), to be paid by HOME Unit households must meet either A. or B. of the following rent requirements:

A. The rent does not exceed the lesser of (1) 30 percent of the DRAFT

annual income of a family whose income equals 50 percent of the median income for the area, as determined by HUD, with adjustments for smaller and larger families, as provided by HUD; or (2) the fair market rent for existing housing for comparable units in the area as established by HUD under 24 CFR 888.111; or

B. The rent does not exceed 30 percent of the family’s adjusted income. If the unit receives Federal or State project -based rental subsidy and the family pays as contribution toward rent not more than 30 percent of the family’s adjusted income, then the maximum rent (i.e., tenant contribution plus project -based rental subsidy) is the rent allowable under the Federal or State project-based rental subsidy program.

iv. Rent for the HOME ARP Units shall not exceed HOME ARP Rents. “HOME ARP Rents” means rent that meets the following requirements:

A. The rent may not exceed 30 percent of the annual income of a family whose income equals 50 percent of the median income for the area, as determined by HUD, with adjustments for smaller and larger families. HUD annually provides the HOME Rent Limits, that are also applicable to HOME ARP, which include average occupancy per unit and adjusted income assumptions. This is also known as the low HOME rent limit.

B. If a HOME ARP Unit receives federal or state project-based rental subsidy and the very low -income family pays as a contribution toward rent not more than 30 percent of the family’s adjusted income, then the maximum rent (i.e., tenant contribution plus project-based rental subsidy) is the rent allowable under the federal or state project -based rental subsidy program.

C. If a HOME ARP Unit household receives Tenant -Based Rental Assistance (TBRA), the rent is the rent permissible under the applicable rental assistance program (i.e., the tenant rental contribution plus the rental subsidy allowable under that rental assistance program).

D. The rent limits for HOME ARP Tenants include the rent plus the utility allowance established pursuant to Section VI.B.13.d of the HOME ARP Notice.

E. A qualifying household may not contribute to rent more than is affordable based on the determination of the household’s income.

F. A household that met the definition of the Qualifying Population at initial occupancy remains a qualifying household throughout their period of occupancy irrespective of changes in income or whether they continue to meet a Qualifying Population definition.

v. Changes in Income and Over Income Households : A qualifying household whose annual income at the time of recertification is above 50 percent of median income for the area but below 80 percent of median income for the area must pay the rent specified in 24 CFR 92.252(a).

vi. The HOME rent limits published by HUD will include average occupancy per unit and adjusted income assumptions.

vii. HOME Rents shall not exceed the maximum rent limits provided by HUD at the date of initial occupancy and will be adjusted periodically thereafter in accordance with 24 CFR part 92.252(f) and (g). HOME ARP Rents shall not exceed the maximum rent limits provided in the HOME ARP Notice.

viii. Rents for the HOME Units and the HOME ARP Units will remain affordable pursuant to this Agreement for the term set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement.

ix. Prior to initial lease -up of the Project, Developer must submit to Authority for its approval the street address and unit number of the proposed HOME Units and the HOME ARP Units. Developer may not thereafter change the identity of the HOME Units or the HOME ARP Units without prior written approval by the Authority. Each substituted unit must be comparable to the originally designated HOME Units or HOME ARP Unit, as applicable, in terms of size, features, and number of bedrooms.

c. Failure to comply with the affordability requirements of this Agreement is an event of default under the terms of the HOME CHDO Loan and HOME ARP Loan. Pursuant to the HOME CHDO Note evidencing the HOME CHDO Loan and the HOME ARP Note evidencing the HOME ARP Loan, subject to the right to cure, the HOME CHDO Loan and the HOME ARP Loan will be due and payable immediately if the rents for HOME Units or the HOME ARP Units do not meet the affordability requirements of this Agreement. d. All income calculations required for income determinations must use the annual income definition in 24 CFR 5.609 in accordance with the requirements of 24 CFR

92.203(a)(1) or the HOME ARP Notice, as applicable.

5. Project Requirements. 24 CFR 92 Subpart F (92.250 - 92.258).

Developer will comply with all applicable requirements set forth in Subpart F of the HOME Regulations, as provided elsewhere in this Agreement and also including the following:

a. Maximum Per-Unit Subsidy. 24 CFR 92.250 . The amount of the HOME CHDO Loan may not exceed the per unit dollar limits established by HUD pursuant to section DRAFT

iii. The Project will comply with the lead -based paint standards in Section 92.355. Housing assisted with HOME Program funds and HOME ARP Program funds constitutes HUD-associated housing for the purpose of Lead -Based Paint Poisoning Prevention Act (42 U.S.C. Section 4821, et seq.) and is, therefore, subject to 24 Code of Federal Regulations Part 35. Accordingly, and pursuant to Section 92.355 of the Regulations, Developer hereby agrees to and will be responsible for testing and abatement activities specified in the Lead-Based Paint Poisoning Prevention Act and the regulations set forth at 24 Code of Federal Regulations Part 25 with respect to the construction of the Property.

g. Affirmative Marketing Requirements. 24 CFR 92.351; 92.504(c)(3)(v) .

7. Retention and Inspection of Records. 24 CFR 92.504(c) & (d). a. Developer will retain all books and records relevant to the Project for a minimum of five years after the project completion date, except that records of individual tenant income verifications, project rents and project inspections will be retained for the most recent five year period until five years after the affordability period terminates. If any litigation, claim, negotiation, audit, monitoring, inspection, or other action has been started before the expiration of the required record retention period, records must be retained until the completion of the action and resolution of all issues which arise from it, or until the end of the required period, whichever is later.
b. The Authority, HUD, and the Comptroller General of the United States, and any of their representatives, will have the right of access to any pertinent books, documents, papers or other records of the Developer, in order to make audits, examinations, excerpts and transcripts.

8. Enforcement of the Agreement. 24 CFR 92.504(c)(3)(vii).

The AHA and all of its attachments, will be enforceable by the Authority in accordance with the terms thereof. Each of the AHA, this Agreement, the HOME CHDO Note, the HOME ARP Note, and the Authority Deed of Trust provide a means of enforcement if the Developer is in breach of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, including liens on the Property, deed restrictions and covenants running with the land. Developer hereby agrees that specific enforcement of its obligations contained herein is the only means by which the Authority may fully obtain the benefits of this Agreement, and Developer therefore agrees to the imposition of the remedy of specific performance against it in the case of uncured default by Developer hereunder. Provided however, the rights and remedies of the Agency are cumulative, and the exercise by the Agency of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other def ault by Owner. Failure to comply with the requirements of this Agreement is an event of default under the terms of the HOME CHDO Note, the HOME ARP Note, and the Authority Deed of Trust. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein, a breach of this Agreement by Developer or its successors and assigns will in no way defeat, invalidate or impair the obligation or priority of any mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the Property.

Failure or delay by Developer to perform a material term or provision of this Agreement constitutes a default under this Agreement. The Authority will give written notice of default to Developer at the address set forth below, specifying the default complained of by the Authority. Delay in giving such notice will not constitute a waiver of any default nor will it change the time of default. Failures or delays by the Authority in asserting its rights and remedies as to a default will not operate as a waiver of default or of such rights or remedies. Delays by the Authority in asserting its rights and remedies will not deprive the Authority of its right to institute and maintain actions or proceedings DRAFT

which it may deem necessary to protect, assert, or enforce such rights or remedies.

If a monetary event of default occurs under the terms of this Agreement, prior to exercising its remedies hereunder, the Authority will give Developer written notice of such default. Developer will have ten (10) calendar days after the notice of default is received or deemed received to cure the default prior to exercise of remedies by the Authority under this Agreement.

If a non-monetary event of default occurs under the terms of this Agreement, prior to exercising its remedies hereunder, the Authority will give Developer written notice of such default. If the default is reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) calendar days after such notice is received or deemed received, Developer will have such period to effect a cure prior to exercise of remedies by the Authority under this Agreement. If the default is such that it is not reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) days, and Developer (i) initiates corrective action within said period, and (ii) diligently and in good faith works to effect a cure as soon as possible, then Developer will have such additional time as is reasonably necessary to cure the default prior to the Authority’s exercise of remedies. In no event will Authority be precluded from exercising remedies if its security becomes or is about to become materially jeopardi zed by a failure to cure a default or the default is not cured within one hundred eighty (180) days after the notice of default is received or deemed received or such additional time as is reasonably approved by the Authority Executive Director or designee.

A notice of default that is transmitted by electronic facsimile transmission followed by delivery of a “hard” copy, will be deemed delivered upon its transmission; a notice of default that is personally delivered (including by means of professional messeng er service, courier service such as United Parcel Service or Federal Express, or by U.S. Postal Service), will be deemed received on the documented date of receipt by Developer; and a notice of default that is sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt required will be deemed received on the date of receipt thereof. Notices will be sent to the following addresses:

e. If a non-monetary event of default occurs under the terms of the Affordable Housing Agreement, this Note, the Authority Deed of Trust, the HOME Regulatory Agreement, or a document implementing the Affordable Housing Agreement or other obligations secured by a deed of trust on the Property, prior to exercising its remedies hereunder or thereunder, the Authority will give Borrower written notice of such default.

Consent to one such transaction will not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to require consent to future or successive transactions.

Authority shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent. If consent should be given, any such transfer shall be subject to this Section 11, and any such transferee shall assume all obligations hereunder and agree to be bound by all provisions contained herein.

b. Proposed transferees must have the qualifications and financial responsibility necessary and adequate as may be reasonably determined by the Authority, to fulfill Borrower’s obligations undertaken in the Affordable Housing Agreement, the HOME Regulatory Agreement, this Note, the HOME CHDO Note, and the Environmental Indemnity . A proposed transferee, by instrument in writing satisfactory to the Authority and in form recordable among the land records, for itself and its successors and assigns, and for the ben efit of the Authority must expressly assume all of Borrower’s obligations under the Affordable Housing Agreement, the HOME Regulatory Agreement, this Note , the HOME CHDO Note, and the Environmental Indemnity and agree to be subject to all conditions and restrictions applicable to Borrower.

to affect any such transfer; and if approved by the Authority its approval will be indicated to Borrower in writing. If consent should be given, such transfer will be subject to this Section 11. c. In the absence of specific written agreement by the Authority, no unauthorized Transfer, or approval thereof by the Authority, will be deemed to relieve the Borrower or any other party from any obligations under the Affordable Housing Agreement, the HOME Regulatory Agreement, this Note , the HOME CHDO Note, or the Environmental Indemnity.
d. In the event of a Transfer prior to the time the HOME ARP Loan is paid in full without the prior written consent of the Authority, the remaining principal balance of the HOME ARP Loan and all accrued but unpaid interest will be immediately due and payable. e. As used herein, “Transfer” means

Accordingly, Borrower agrees for itself, its successors and assigns that the use of the property will be subject to the restrictions on rent and occupancy set forth in the HOME Regulatory Agreement.

13. Subject to the provisions and limitations of this Section 13, the obligation to repay the HOME ARP Loan is a nonrecourse obligation of the Borrower. Borrower will not have any personal liability for repayment of the loan, except as provided in this Section 13. The sole recourse of Authority will be the exercise of its rights against the Property and other security for the HOME ARP Loan. Provided, however, that the foregoing will not (a) constitute a waiver of an obligation evidenced by this Note or the Authority Deed of Trust; (b) limit the right of the Authority to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for judicial foreclosure and sale under this Note and the Authority Deed of Trust or any action or proceeding hereunder so long as no judgment in the nature of a de ficiency judgment will be asked for or taken against Borrower; (c) release or impair this Note or the Authority Deed of Trust; (d) prevent or in any way hinder the Authority from exercising, or constitute a defense, an affirmative defense, a counterclaim, or other basis for relief in respect of the exercise of, any other remedy again st the mortgaged Property or other instrument securing the Note or as prescribed by law or in equity in case of default; (e) prevent or in any way hinder the Authority from exercising, or constitute a defense, an affirmative defense, a DRAFT

The foregoing provisions of this paragraph are limited by the provision that in the event of the occurrence of a default, Borrower and its successors and assigns will have personal liability hereunder for any deficiency judgment, but only if and to the extent Borrower, its principals, shareholders, partners or its successors and assigns received rentals, other revenues, or other payments or proceeds in respect of the m ortgaged Property after the occurrence of such default, which rentals, other revenues, or other pay ments or proceeds have not been used for the payment of ordinary and reasonable operating expenses of the mortgaged Property, ordinary and reasonable capital improvements to the mortgaged Property, debt service, real estate taxes in respect of the mortgaged Property and basic management fees, but not incentive fees, payable to an entity or person unaffiliated with Borrower in connection with the operation of the mortgaged Property, which are then due and payable. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this p aragraph, Authority may recover directly from Borrower or from any other party:
a. damages, costs and expenses incurred by the Authority as a result of fraud or criminal act or acts of Borrower or a partner, shareholder, officer, director or employee of Borrower, or of a member or general or limite d partner of Borrower, or of a general or limited partner of such member or general or limited partner;

15. Upon the failure of Borrower to perform or observe a term or provision of this Note, or upon the occurrence of an event of default under the terms of the Authority Deed of Trust, the Affordable Housing Agreement, the HOME Regulatory Agreement, or other obligations secured by a deed of trust on the Property, and after expiration of the applicable cure period , the holder may exercise its rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder.

16. Defaults and Remedies.
a. Subject to the extensions of time set forth in Section 17, and subject to the further provisions of this Secti on 16, failure or delay by Borrower to perform a material term or provision of this Note, the Authority Deed of Trust, the Affordable Housing Agreement , the HOME Regulatory Agreement, or other obligations secured by a deed of trust on the Property, constitutes a default under this Note.
b. The Authority will give written notice of default to Borrower at the address set forth below, specifying the default complained of by the Authority. Delay in giving such notice will not constitute a waiver of any default nor will it change the time of default. c. Failures or delays by the Authority in asserting its rights and remedies as to a default will not operate as a waiver of default or of such rights or remedies. Delays by the Authority in asserting its rights and remedies will not deprive the Authority of its right to institute and maintain actions or proceedings which it may deem necessary to protect, assert, or enforce such rights or remedies.
d. If a monetary event of default occurs under the terms of this Note or the Authority Deed of Trust, or other obligations secured by a deed of trust on the Property, prior to exercising its remedies hereunder or thereunder the Authority will give Borrower written notice of such default. Borrower will have a reasonable period of time after such notice is given within which to cure the default prior to exercise of remedies by the Authority under this Note and the Authority Deed of Trust. In no event will the Authority be precluded from exercising remedies if its security becomes or is about to become materially impaired by a failure to cure a default or the default is not cured within ten (10) calendar days after the notice of default is received or deemed received.
e. If a non-monetary event of default occurs under the terms of the Affordable Housing Agreement, this Note, the Authority Deed of Trust, the HOME Regulatory Agreement, or a document implementing the Affordable Housing Agreement or other obligations secured by a deed of trust on the Property, prior to exercising its remedies hereunder or thereunder, the Authority will give Borrower written notice of such default. If the default is reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) calendar days after such no tice is received or deemed received, Borrower will have such period to effect a cure prior to exercise of remedies by the Authority under the Affordable Housing Agreement, the HOME Regulatory Agreement, this Note and/or the Authority Deed of Trust. If the default is such that it is not reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) days, and Borrower (i) initiates corrective action within said period, and (ii) DRAFT

diligently and in good faith works to effect a cure as soon as possible, then Borrower will have such additional time as is reasonably necessary to cure the default prior to the Authority’s exercise of remedies.

f. A notice of default that is transmitted by electronic facsimile transmission followed by delivery of a “hard” copy, will be deemed delivered upon its transmission; a notice of default that is personally delivered (including by means of professional messenger service, courier service such as United Parcel Service or Federal Express, or by U.S. Postal Service), will be deemed received on the documented date of receipt by Borrower; and a notice of default that is sent by registered or certified mail, postage p repaid, return receipt required will be deemed received on the date of receipt thereof.

After deducting therefrom all its expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, the balance of the proceeds which are not used to reconstruct, restore or otherwise improve the property or part thereof that was taken or damaged, will be applied to the amount due under the Note s secured hereby. No amount applied to the reduction of the principal will relieve the Trustor from making regular payments as required by the Notes secured hereby;

18. Upon default by Trustor in making any payments provided for in the Notes secured hereby or in this Deed of Trust, or in performing any obligation set forth in any of the Secured Obligations, and if such default is not cured within the respective time provided therefor in Section 34 of this Deed of Trust, below, Beneficiary may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable by delivery to Trustee of written declaration of default and demand for sale, and of written notice of default and of election to cause the Property to be sold, which notice Trustee will cause to be duly filed for record and Beneficiary may foreclose this Deed of Trust.

There will be submitted to the Beneficiary for review all instruments and other legal documents proposed to effect any such transfer; and if approved by the Beneficiary its approval will be indicated to the Trustor in writing.
c.

In the event of a Transfer without the prior written consent of the Beneficiary prior to the time the HOME CHDO Loan and the HOME ARP Loan are paid in full or prior to the expiration of term of the HOME Regulatory Agreement , the net proceeds will be paid to the Beneficiary to the extent necessary to pay in full the accrued interest, if any, current interest and remaining principal balance of the HOME CHDO Loan and the HOME ARP Loan, , with 25% repayment to the HOME CHDO Loan and 75% repayment to the HOME ARP Loan. e.

Housing Agreement, and the Project and Property are subject to the restrictions set forth in the Secured Obligations;

30.

32. (a) Failure or delay by Trustor to perform any term or provision respectively required to be performed under the Secured Obligations or this Deed of Trust constitutes a default under this Deed of Trust.
(b) Delay in giving any notice will not constitute a waiver of any default nor will it change the time of default.
(c) Any failures or delays by Beneficiary in asserting any of its rights and remedies as to any default will not operate as a waiver of any default or of any such rights or remedies. Delays by Beneficiary in asserting any of its rights and remedies will not deprive Beneficiary of its right to institute and maintain any actions or proceedings which it may deem necessary to protect, assert, or enforce any such rights or remedies. (d) If a monetary event of default occurs, prior to exercising any remedies hereunder, Beneficiary will give Trustor written notice of such default.

(e) If a non-monetary event of default occurs, prior to exercising any remedies hereunder, Beneficiary will give Trustor written notice of such default. If the default is reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) calendar days after such notice is received or deemed received, Trustor will have such period to effect a cure prior to exercise of remedies by the Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust. If the default is such that it is not reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) days, and Trustor (i) initiates corrective action within said period, and (ii) diligently and in good faith works to effect a cure as soon as possible, then Trustor will have such additional time as is reasonably necessary to cure the default prior to the Beneficiary’s exercise of remedies. In no event will Beneficiary be precluded from exercising remedies if its security DRAFT
