GRANT DEED

RECORDING REQUESTED BY AND
WHEN RECORDED MAIL TO:
[Space above for recorder.]

GRANT DEED
(Including Covenant Pursuant to Section 50079.5 of the California Government Code) For valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the CITY OF LANCASTER, a charter city and California municipal corporation (the “Grantor”), hereby grants to ACCESS SERVICES, a public entity, (the “Grantee”), the real property hereinafter referred to as the “Site,” described in Attachment No. 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein, subject to the existing easements, restrictions and covenants of record described there.

1. Grantor excepts and reserves from the conveyance herein described all interest of Grantor in oil, gas, hydrocarbon substances and minerals of every kind and character lying more than five hundred (500) feet below the surface, together with the right to drill into, through and to use and occupy all parts of the Site lying more than five hundred (500) feet below the surface thereof for any and all purposes incidental to the exploration for and production of oil, gas, hydrocarbon substances or minerals from said Site or other lands, but without, however, any right to use either the surface of the Site or any portion thereof within five hundred (500) feet of the surface for any purpose or purposes whatsoever, or to use the Site in such a manner as to create a disturbance to the use or enjoyment of the Site.

2. The Site is conveyed in accordance with and subject to the Disposition and Development Agreement entered into between Grantor and Grantee dated December 13, 2022 (the “DDA”), a copy of which is on file with Grantor at its offices as a public record and which is incorporated herein by reference. All terms used herein shall have the same meaning as those used in the DDA.

3. If ten (10) or more residential units are developed on the Site, not less than fifteen percent (15%) of the total number of residential units developed on the Site shall be sold or rented at affordable housing cost, as defined in Section 50052.5 of the California Health and Safety Code, or affordable rent, as defined in Section 50053 of the California Health and Safety Code, to lower income households, as defined in Section 50079.5 of the California Health and Safety Code. Rental units shall remain affordable to and occupied by lower income households for a period of fifty-five (55) years for rental housing and forty-five (45) years for ownership housing. The initial occupants of all ownership units shall be lower income households, and the units shall be subject to an equity sharing agreement consistent with the provisions of paragraph (2) of subdivision (c) of 65915 of the California Government Code. These requirements shall be covenants or restrictions running with the land and shall be enforceable against any owner who violates a covenant or restriction and each successor-in- E-2
interest who continues the violation by any of the entities described in subdivisions (a) to (f), inclusive, of Section 54222.5 of the California Government Code.

4. Grantor has the right, at its election, to reenter and take possession of the Site, with all improvements thereon, and terminate and revest in Grantor the estate conveyed to Grantee if after the Closing but prior to the issuance and recordation of the Release of Construction Covenants, Grantee (or its successors in interest) shall:
a. Fail to start the construction of the Developer Improvements as required by the DDA for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from City; or b. Abandon or substantially suspend construction of the Developer Improvements required by the DDA for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from City; or
c. Fail to complete construction of the Developer Improvements required by the DDA within the time frame set forth in the Schedule of Performance contained therein; or
d. Transfer or suffer any involuntary transfer of the Site or any part thereof in violation of Section 625 of the DDA.

Such right to reenter, terminate and revest shall be subject to and be limited by and shall not defeat, render invalid or limit: (i) any mortgage or deed of trust permitted by the DDA; or (ii) any rights or interests provided in the DDA for the protection of the holders of such mortgages or deeds of trust.

Upon the revesting in Grantor of title to the Site as provided in this Section 3, Grantor shall, pursuant to its responsibilities under state law, use its reasonable efforts to resell the Site for fair market value as soon and in such manner as Grantor shall find feasible to a qualified and responsible party or parties (as determined by Grantor) who will assume the obligation of making or completing the Developer Improvements, or such improvements in their stead as shall be satisfactory to Grantor. Upon such resale of the Site, the net proceeds thereof after repayment of any mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the Site, which is permitted by this Agreement, shall be applied:
i. First, to reimburse Grantor all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Grantor, excluding City staff costs, but specifically, including, but not limited to, any expenditures by Grantor in connection with the recapture, management and resale of the Site or part thereof (but less any income derived by Grantor from the Site or part thereof in connection with such management); all taxes, assessments and water or sewer charges with respect to the Site or part thereof which Grantee has not paid (or, in the event that Site is exempt from taxation or assessment of such charges during the period of ownership thereof by Grantor, an amount, if paid, equal to such taxes, assessments or charges as would have been payable if the Site were not so exempt); any payments made or necessary to be made to discharge any encumbrances or liens existing on the Site or part thereof at the time of revesting of title thereto in Grantor, or to discharge or prevent from attaching or being made any subsequent encumbrances or liens due to obligations, defaults or acts of Grantee, its E-3
successors or transferees; any expenditures made or obligations incurred with respect to the making or completion of the improvements or any part thereof on the Site, or part thereof; and any amounts otherwise owing Grantor, and in the event additional proceeds are thereafter available, then ii. Second, to reimburse Grantee, its successor or transferee, up to the amount equal to the sum of (a) the costs incurred for the acquisition and development of the Site and for the improvements existing on the Site at the time of the reentry and possession, less (b) any gains or income withdrawn or made by Grantee from the Site or the improvements thereon.

Any balance remaining after such reimbursements shall be retained by Grantor as its property. The rights established in this Section 3 are not intended to be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy authorized herein or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. These rights are to be interpreted in light of the fact that Grantor will have conveyed the Site to Grantee for economic development purposes, and not for speculation in undeveloped land.

5. Grantee covenants by and for itself and any successors in interest that there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of, any person or group of persons on account of any basis listed in subdivision (a) or (d) of Section 12955 of the Government Code, as those bases are defined in Sections 12926, 12926.1, subdivision (m) and paragraph (1) of subdivision (p) of Section 12955, and Section 12955.2 of the Government Code, in the sale, lease, sublease, transfer, use, occupancy, tenure, or enjoyment of the Site, nor shall the grantee or any person claiming under or through him or her, establish or permit any practice or practices of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number, use or occupancy of tenants, lessees, subtenants, sublessees, or vendees in the Site. The foregoing covenants shall run with the land.

Grantee shall refrain from restricting the rental, sale or lease of the Site on any of the bases listed above in this Section 4. All such deeds, leases or contracts shall contain or be subject to substantially the following nondiscrimination or nonsegregation clauses:
(a) In deeds. “The grantee herein covenants by and for himself or herself, his or her heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns, and all persons claiming under or through them, that there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of, any person or group of persons on account of any basis listed in subdivision (a) or (d) of Section 12955 of the Government Code, as those bases are defined in Sections 12926, 12926.1, subdivision (m) and paragraph (1) of subdivision (p) of Section 12955, and Section 12955.2 of the Government Code, in the sale, lease, sublease, transfer, use, occupancy, tenure, or enjoyment of the premises herein conveyed, nor shall the grantee or any person claiming under or through him or her, establish or permit any practice or practices of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number, use or occupancy of tenants, lessees, subtenants, sublessees, or vendees in the premises herein conveyed. The foregoing covenants shall run with the land.”
(b) In leases. “The lessee herein covenants by and for himself or herself, his or her heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns, and all persons claiming under or through him or her, and this lease is made and accepted upon and subject to the following conditions:

E-4
“That there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of any person or group of persons, on account of any basis listed in subdivision (a) or (d) of Section 12955 of the Government Code, as those bases are defined in Sections 12926, 12926.1, subdivision (m) and paragraph (1) of subdivision (p) of Section 12955, and Section 12955.2 of the Government Code, in the leasing, subleasing, transferring, use, occupancy, tenure, or enjoyment of the premises herein leased nor shall the lessee himself or herself, or any person claiming under or through him or her, establish or permit any such practice or practices of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number, use, or occupancy, of tenants, lessees, sublessees, subtenants, or vendees in the premises herein leased.”
(c) In contracts. “There shall be no discrimination against or segregation of, any person or group of persons on account of any basis listed in subdivision (a) or (d) of Section 12955 of the Government Code, as those bases are defined in Sections 12926, 12926.1, subdivision (m) and paragraph (1) of subdivision (p) of Section 12955, and Section 12955.2 of the Government Code, in the sale, lease, sublease, transfer, use, occupancy, tenure, or enjoyment of the premises which are the subject of this Agreement, nor shall the grantee or any person claiming under or through him or her, establish or permit any practice or practices of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number, use or occupancy of tenants, lessees, subtenants, sublessees, or vendees in the premises herein conveyed. The foregoing covenants shall run with the land.” GRANTOR:
