B. MT Owner, LLC, owns the property located at 232-234 South Brand Boulevard (APN 5642-013-008) (the “ MT Property”) which site is improved with a building commonly known as The Masonic Temple (the “Building”). NM Owner owns the property located at 230 South Brand Boulevard (APN 5642-013-007) adjacent to and directly north of the Building (the “NM Property”). C&B Owner owns the property located at 238 South Brand Boulevard (APN 5642-013-014), immediately south of the Building (the “C&B Property”).
The MT Property, C&B Property and NM Property are collectively referred to herein as the “Properties”.
C. The Properties are located within the City’s Advertising Signage Overlay Zone set forth on Glendale’s Zoning Map and established pursuant to Glendale Municipal Code (“GMC”) Chapter 30.26 as more fully described in Exhibit “B” attached hereto (the “ASOZ”). The ASOZs are intended to allow advertising signage in areas of the City that qualify for the overlay. These requirements include that the proposed ASOZ contain , among other things, a minimum of twenty contiguous acres, be devoted to intense retail uses that contain a minimum of one-million square feet of gross area, and that each applicant has operational controls of properties with a minimum of 400,000 square feet. Further, the ASOZ can be approved if, among other things, the advertising signage in the ASOZ contributes to the economic vitality of the geographic area, and that it will advance the purposes of the City’s sign regulations.
D. The City is authorized to enter into development agreements with persons having legal or equitable development interests in real property locate d within the City pursuant to Government Code section 65864 et seq.
E. Owners have qualifying ownership interest in the Properties and have requested the City enter into a development agreement , and proceedings have been undertaken in accordance with Glendale Municipal Code Chapter 30.26 .100, which requires each property owner/applicant enter into a statutory development agreement with the City prior to the issuance of permits or installation, whichever comes first, for ASOZ non-accessory signs and sign structures and animated signs and sign structures in compliance with the ASOZ regulations.
F. MT Owner desires to install and operate the Permitted Signs (as defined below) on the Building as more particularly described in the Permitted Sign Approvals (as defined below). A portion of the Building includes a staircase that is located on the C&B Property in accordance with that certain Grant of Easement and Agreement by and between MT Owner and C&B Owner dated as of December 2, 2015 and recorded in the Official 4 Records of Los Angeles County on December 3, 2015 as Instrument Number 20151517888. The Permitted Sign on the south façade of the Building will be located on the staircase and will protrude beyond the foregoing easement area over the airspace of the C&B Property. Further, because the Building has been built up to the shared property line with the NM Property, t he Permitted Sign on the north façade of the Building will protrude beyond the property line over the airspace of the NM Property. C&B Owner and MN Owner are hereby entering into this Agreement sol ely to consent to the foregoing encroachments by the Permitted Signs over each of their respective Properties.
G. Significant public benefits will be provided by Owners to the entire community by promoting the purposes of the ASOZ which include, among other purposes, promoting economic development, ensuring an attractive business environment, highlight ing the City’s retail and entertainment core in large -scale multi-tenant developments, creating a lively and visually exciting environment, protecting street views and vistas, protecting residents from glare and excessive illumination, and providing clear development standards. The construction, installation and maintenance of the Permitted Signs (as defined in Section 1 herein below), will be consistent with and will further these purposes and will generate revenues for the City and thereby further promote the health, safety and general welfare of the City and its residents.
In exchange for these and other benefits to the City, Owner s will receive the assurance that MT Owner may erect and operate the Permitted Signs during the Term of this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions herein contained. City has undertaken the necessary proceedings, has found and determined that this Agreement is consistent with the City’s General Plan, Downtown Specific Plan, the adjacent Town Center Specific Plan (“TCSP”), ASOZ, Zoning Code and the Permitted Sign Approvals, and has adopted Ordinance No. __________, approving this Agreement. This Agreement does not supersede, nullify or amend any condition imposed in the Permitted Sign Approvals.

6. Public Benefit Agreement (PBA) Fees.
6.1. Report and Payment. Within thirty (30) days after the end of each PBA Year, MT Owner shall deliver to City (i) an itemized report of all Gross Revenue received by MT Owner during the applicable PBA Year for the Permitted Signs (the “Revenue Report”), (ii) MT Owner’s computation of the PBA Fee for the applicable PBA Year. Within thirty (30) days from a request by the City, MT Owner shall submit a copy of each contract associated with each item of Gross Revenue included in the Revenue Report . Payment of PBA Fee shall be based on the Gross Revenues for the applicable PBA Year. City shall have thirty (30) days within which to review the Revenue Report and to either (1) respond to MT Owner with an invoice for PBA Fees (“PBA Fee Invoice”), or (2) to request additional in formation on the Revenue Report (“ Revenue Report Information”). MT Owner shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of the PBA Fee Invoice to submit payment to the City, or to provide a response to the request for Revenue Report Information. MT Owner’s failure to either pay the PBA Fee or to timely respond to the City’s request for Revenue Report Information shall constitute an Event of Default as defined in Section 19 herein below.
6.2. Calculation. The PBA Fee for each PBA Year shall be calculated by multiplying (i) the Percentage Rate for the PBA Year by (ii) the total Gross Revenue for the same PBA Year.
6.3. Revenue Received After Term. If Gross Revenue is generated after the end of the Term, including any amounts due under media contracts, commissions, etc. paid in arrears or otherwise received after the end of the Term on account of the operation of any Permitted Sign during the Term, MT Owner shall pay an additional PBA Fee based on that Gross Revenue as if it had been generated in the final PBA Year of the Term (the “Additional PBA Fee”). Within thirty (30) days after the end of every six (6) month period after the end of the Term for so long as Gross Revenue is generated on account of any Permitted Sign, MT Owner shall submit an updated Revenue Report for the final PBA Year of the Term including a statement of the additional Gross 10 Revenue generated, an updated calculation of the PBA Fee for the last PBA Year of the Term, and payment of any Additional PBA Fee that may be due. MT Owner’s failure to either pay any Additional PBA Fee shall constitute an Event of Default as defined in Section 19 herein below.
7. Gross Revenue.
7.1 Gross Revenue is to be accounted for on a cash basis, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.
7.2 If any media is sold, placed or displayed on any Permitted Sign as part of an advertising package, incentive, or otherwise provided as part of, or with, any discount or price reduction, then Gross Revenue hereunder must be adjusted to reflect the market rate value of the incentive or advertising package agreed to by MT Owner for the Permitted Sign. As used in the preceding sentence, the term “market rate” means the price paid by third party advertisers for the same Permitted Sign during the applicable PBA Year, and such “market rate” shall be subject to audit by the City pursuant to Section 8. By way of example only, if the market rate value for an animated advertisement on one of the Permitted Signs (as determined by rates charged to third parties) is $5,000 per month and if MT Owner enters into an agreement during the Amortization Period for both animated advertising on a Permitted Sign and additional advertising on other Signs on Project Site (e.g., static kiosk displays) for a total of $25,000 per month, the City would be entitled to 12% multiplied by $5,000 or $600.
Furthermore, the parties agree that if MT Owner do es not have an agreement in place for advertising on a Permitted Sign, MT Owner is entitled to display Generic Filler Advertising on one or more of the Permitted Signs without payment to City, provided that MT Owner does not display such Generic Filler Advertising on more than 33% of the applicable advertising inventory on the Permitted Signs. If MT Owner does not have an agreement in place for advertising on a Permitted Sign and MT Owner has utilized the foregoing allocation for Generic Filler Advertising, then MT Owner agrees to use best commercially reasonable efforts to place agreements for advertising on Permitted Signs in order to minimize the amount of additional time Generic Filler Advertising is displayed.
8. Audit.
8.1 City may, upon notice given within six (6) months after its receipt of any Revenue Report and at least five (5) business days in advance, examine and audit the books and records of MT Owner relating in any way to the ownership, maintenance and operation of any Permitted Signs and Sign Structures and any media displayed on any Permitted Signs, including without limitation (i) all payments received or made by MT Owner relating to Gross Revenue, (ii) all agreements to which MT Owner may at any time be a party relating to any Permitted Sign, and (iii) any other records relevant to the determination of Gross Revenue and/or PBA Fees under this Agreement. City may conduct such audits using its own employees, a management agent or consultant or an independent accountant. MT Owner shall make its books and records available to City at Owners’ offices in Glendale, California.
8.2 If City’s audit reveals a discrepancy in the PBA Fee of 5% or less, the party owing the amount of the discrepancy shall pay it to the other Party, and the Parties will each pay for their own costs incurred in connection with the audit process. If the audit reveals an overstatement of the PBA Fee of more than 5%, City shall reimburse or credit MT Owner the amount of such discrepancy and Owners’ reasonable out-of-pocket costs of the audit process. If the audit reveals an understatement in the PBA Fee of more than 5%, MT Owner shall pay City the amount of such discrepancy and City’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs of the audit process.
8.3 Interest. Interest will accrue on any amounts not paid by MT Owner when due hereunder from the date due until paid at the rate of the lesser of (a) eighteen percent (18%) per 11 annum or (b) the maximum amount permitted under Applicable Law. If any amounts are disputed, the interest on said disputed amounts shall continue to accrue until the dispute is settled. MT Owner shall pay to City the accrued interest on the amount determined to be owing upon the settlement of the dispute. In order to avoid the accrual of interest during the pendency of a dispute as to amounts owing, MT Owner may pay to City amounts claimed by City under a reservation of rights and City will refund to MT Owner th e amount of the overpayment (if any) upon final resolution of the dispute.
8.4 Governmental Fees . MT Owner shall pay all fees and charges to any governmental authority of any kind for any licenses, permits, privileges, inspections, and all other charges required for Owners’ use of the Sign Locations, or any part thereof, under any present or future law with respect to the Permitted Signs and or Sign Structures.
8.5 After Term - Holdover. For each day following the expiration or other termination of the Term and receipt of notice and opportunity to cure as outlined in Section 19 during which MT Owner continue s to use or operate a Permitted Sign for animated signage and/or non - accessory signage, MT Owner shall pay City a fee computed as one hundred thirty-seven percent (137%) of the average daily PBA Fee for the year preceding termination for any hold over Sign Location. Payment of such amounts will not entitle MT Owner to the continued use of any Sign Location or Sign Structure and will not cure any default of this Agreement. By way of example, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, MT Owner will be obligated to pay the amounts provided in this paragraph if this Agreement is terminated and MT Owner thereafter continues to use any Sign Location or by any other means (including legal process) prevents, limits or restrains removal of any Permitted Sign or Sign Structure, including any period in which MT Owner (unsuccessfully) contests any termination of this Agreement.
9. Approvals, Permits and Taxes.
9.1 Governmental Approvals.
9.1.1 MT Owner shall, at MT Owner’s sole cost and expense obtain the City’s approval of the design and installation of the Permitted Sign s and Sign Structures, and all associated equipment and infrastructure before installing the Permitted Signs.

9.1.2 This Agreement must be executed prior to the issuance of any permits or installation, whichever comes first, of any Permitted Signs permitted by GMC Chapter 30.26.
9.2 Taxes. To the extent applicable, MT Owner shall pay before delinquency any and all fees, charges, taxes, levies and assessments that may be charged, levied, assessed or imposed by any governmental agency with jurisdiction over any Permitted Sign or upon the Properties, as applicable, as a result of the installation and/or presence of the Permitted Signs thereon (“Sign Taxes”). MT Owner shall indemnify, defend, and hold C&B Owner, NM Owner, the City, and its officers, agents and employees harmless from and against any and all Sign Taxes, whether charged, levied, assessed or imposed against Owner s or the City. If any taxes are due on account of any amount received or payable by MT Owner under this Agreement, MT Owner shall pay them.
10. Installation and Maintenance.
12 10.1 General Requirements. MT Owner, at its sole risk and expense, shall maintain the Permitted Signs and Sign Structures in compliance with Applicable Law and in accordance with this Agreement.
10.2 Time. If any new Permitted Sign is to be installed, MT Owner shall substantially complete construction and installation of the Permitted Sign at its sole cost and expense in accordance with this Agreement.

Except as set forth in Section 30.26.050, changes to signs allowed by an ASOZ, including the sign location, size, framing, material and lighting may be approved by the director of community development, so long as such changes are in substantial conformance with the ASOZ.

Changing out the signs for replacement with new signs of the same material, shape, size and illumination method and consistent with all other aspects of the approved ASOZ does not require approval from the director of community development. (Ord. 5688 § 1, 2010; Ord. 5747 § 25, 2011; Ord. 5804 § 6, 2013; Ord. 6000 § 6, 2023) § 30.26.070. Tree trimming.

A. In any ordinance approving an ASOZ, the council may impose a requirement that the ASOZ expires within a time set by the city council in its reasonable discretion, unless, prior to the expiration of the ASOZ, the city council extends the time in
which the ASOZ is valid. In the event an ordinance approving an ASOZ incorporates such a sunset provision, the planning commission and council shall hold hearings to determine whether to extend the time period for the validity of the ASOZ. Notice of said hearings shall be given in the manner required for zone changes as set forth in this code and shall be held with sufficient time for the council to hear, consider, and adopt an ordinance extending the ASOZ and for said ASOZ extension ordinance to become effective prior to the cessation or expiration of the ASOZ. The council may only extend the effectiveness of the ASOZ if it finds that the ASOZ continues to meet the criteria set forth in Section 30.26.040.
B. If the council extends an ASOZ as set forth above, the council may impose requirements reasonably related to implementing the provisions of this chapter and to achieving the city’s purpose and intent in enacting this chapter and Chapter
30.33. Such requirements may include a requirement that, prior to the continued use of the signs, the property owners in the ASOZ area shall execute development agreements with the city. Any such development agreements shall be adopted pursuant to, and in compliance with, the provisions of Government Code Section 65864 et seq. (as it exists or may hereafter be amended) and shall comply with the provisions of this chapter and Chapter 30.33 (where not in conflict with this chapter).
Any development agreement allowing the use or continued use of the signs authorized by this chapter shall not permit or be construed to permit the signs authorized by an ASOZ in contravention with any of the requirements of this chapter. As part of any development agreement(s) approved by the council pursuant to this section, the city may impose additional requirements pertaining to the city’s safety and aesthetic goals and payments or fees to the city in exchange for the benefits granted to the property owners by said development agreements. In the event an ASOZ is not extended, all signs, and other related fixtures, including lighting and framing allowed by the overlay zone shall be removed and the areas of the buildings where the signs are located shall be repaired to the condition prior to enactment of the ASOZ.
(Ord. 5688 § 1, 2010; Ord. 6000 § 8, 2023)
§ 30.26.090. Development agreement required.
Approval of an ASOZ, or an amendment to an ASOZ that increases or permits new, additional or different signage or sign media, shall be subject to the council’s approval of a statutory development agreement (Government Code Section 65864 et seq.). Said development agreement shall govern the duration and regulation of the signage in accordance with the terms of this chapter and shall provide public benefits to the city which include, but are not limited to, signage, revenue sharing or other public benefits negotiated by the city and the ASOZ applicant. Said development agreement shall be approved prior to the issuance of permits or installation, whichever comes first, for ASOZ non-accessory signs and sign structures and animated signs and sign structures.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this section does not in any way invalidate or modify any existing disposition and development agreement between the applicant and the city or the former Glendale Redevelopment Agency. Any development agreement executed pursuant to this section shall not permit or be construed to permit any sign inconsistent with the provisions of this chapter.
(Ord. 5688 § 1, 2010; Ord. 5752 § 1, 2011; Ord. 5804 § 7, 2013; Ord. 6000 § 9, 2023)
§ 30.26.100. Permits required.
It is unlawful for any person to construct, place, erect, maintain, alter or relocate within an ASOZ any sign, lighting fixture, framing or other structure associated with the sign permitted by an ASOZ without first obtaining a permit therefor from the building official.
Nothing in this chapter shall be interpreted to mean that any permit or fee shall be required for maintaining and repairing existing signs which comply with the provisions of this chapter.
Prior to the issuance of an ASOZ sign permit applicants shall submit a complete final lighting and materials package to the director of community development for review and approval for conformance with this chapter. Such review and approval shall be completed within the time frames established by the Permits Streamlining Act and shall be based upon the criteria set forth
in this chapter.
(Ord. 5688 § 1, 2010; Ord. 5747 § 26, 2011; Ord. 6000 § 10, 2023) § 30.26.110. Violation—Penalty.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Chapter 1.20 of this code, whenever in this chapter any act is prohibited or declared unlawful or the doing of any act is required, or the failure to do any act is declared to be unlawful, it shall be a misdemeanor, and any person convicted of such misdemeanor shall be punished by a fine not exceeding $1,000.
