For each required short-term bicycle parking space, a stationary, securely anchored object shall be provided to which a bicycle frame and one wheel can be secured with a highsecurity U-shaped shackle lock if both wheels are left on the bicycle. One such object may serve multiple bicycle parking spaces.
(e) Programmatic Elements.
(1) Measures Applicable to Project’s Commercial Component Only:
(i) Project Transportation Coordinator. Developer shall designate a Project Transportation Coordinator (the “PTC”) to manage the TDM Plan elements applicable to the Project’s commercial component and participate in City-sponsored workshops and information roundtables relating to transportation demand management. The PTC shall be responsible for making informational materials on options for alternative transportation modes Exhibit “H”, Page 5
and opportunities, particularly programs that involve commuter subsidies such as parking cash out and vanpool subsidies, available to employees of the commercial components of the Project.
In addition, transit fare media and day/month passes shall be made available through the PTC to employees, visitors, and residents during typical business hours to the extent transit providers make such media/passes available for third party distribution/sale (i.e., if a transit provider does not provide physical passes for distribution/sale, the PTC’s role may be assisting employees, visitors and residents with purchasing such passes online or directing them to the nearest location to purchase such passes). In the event that the Project is sold or transferred, the developer shall notify the Department of Transportation Director of the new point of contact for the successor within thirty calendar days of such sale or transfer. At Developer’s option, any responsibilities of the Transportation Coordinator under this Exhibit H may be provided through the TMO contemplated in Exhibit H, Section (e)(1)(ii) below.
(ii) Transportation Management Organization. Developer shall be required to actively participate in the establishment and ongoing activities of a certified Transportation Management Organization ("TMO"), or any successor entity, if established and includes the Project site, including payment of annual dues at a level commensurate with the trip reduction services provided by the TMO and assuming that Developer is granted voting rights commensurate with its dues level, attendance at organizational meetings, providing travel and parking demand data to the TMO, and making available information to commercial tenants relative to the services provided by the TMO. Developer shall require in all leases it executes as landlord for commercial space within the Project that any commercial tenants qualifying as an “employer” as defined in SMMC Section 9.53.020(S) be required to participate in the TMO and that all subleases contain this same provision. At the discretion of Developer, to be approved by the Department of Transportation Director or his/her designee through a Minor Modification, some or all of the services required by this Exhibit H may be provided through the TMO. (iii) Carpool Parking. In compliance with SMMC Section
9.28.150, two vehicular parking spaces shall be designated as preferential parking for carpools/vanpools. If demand for carpool/vanpool parking exceeds the amount provided, as indicated by the annual TDM Plan report, additional preferential carpool/vanpool parking shall be designated in order to meet the demand.
(iv) Unbundled Parking. Developer shall not require tenants occupying commercial space in the Project to lease parking. The cost of any parking leased by such tenants shall be a separate line item in the lease. Parking pricing may be established at the discretion of the Developer but shall be noncompetitive with the price for comparable transit fares. All parking spaces shall be priced at a daily or monthly rate as follows: A minimum daily rate of $8 shall be charged. If parking spaces are leased on a monthly basis, the monthly rate shall not be less than twenty (20) times the minimum daily rate. Developer may, subject to the Department of Transportation Director’s approval, reconfigure the parking spaces and operations from time-to-time in order to facilitate unbundling of parking. Developer shall require in all tenant leases it executes as landlord that each tenant charge its employees for parking and that all subleases contain this same provision.
Exhibit “H”, Page 6
Remaining commercial unbundled parking spaces that are not reserved, leased or sold to on-site users may be leased to other on-site users or to off-site residential or commercial users on a month-to-month basis.
If the California Coastal Commission refuses to approve this section’s requirement for unbundled parking for commercial space, this provision shall be null and void and an amendment to this Development Agreement shall not be required. In the event that subsequent California Coastal Commission review of the Project or components of the Project allows the City to require unbundled parking in accordance with this Section, the City reserves the right to require unbundled parking for leases of the Project’s commercial space that are entered into after the unbundled parking requirement becomes effective again. If required by City, such modification shall be deemed as a Minor Modification pursuant to Section 2.4.2 of this Agreement.
(v) AVR Target. For Project employees, Developer shall
endeavor to achieve an average vehicle ridership ("AVR") of 2.2 (the “AVR Target”) within three years of the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy. The 2.2 AVR shall continue to be achieved and maintained thereafter.
A. Remedy for Not Achieving AVR Target. If the
AVR Target has not been achieved, then, within 60 days of the submission of the annual report showing non-compliance, the Developer shall submit to the Department of Transportation Director modifications to the TDM Plan that are designed to achieve the AVR Target. In addition, during this 60-day period, the Department of Transportation Director or his/her designee may recommend modifications to the TDM Plan. Any of the modifications to the TDM Plan proposed by Developer and approved by the City (or proposed by the City and agreed to by the Developer) designed to achieve the AVR Target shall be implemented within 30 days following approval. Within six (6) months of implementation of the TDM Plan modifications, Developer shall submit a follow-up monitoring report. For purposes of the follow-up monitoring report, Developer may elect to use one of the following methods to calculate AVR achievement in lieu of a comprehensive employee survey: (1) Developer may survey a statistically representative sample of commute modes of peak period employees based on the prior AVR survey, so long as at least 10% of all peak period employees respond; or (2) if Developer has implemented an online or mobile survey tool that allows periodic or automatic reporting of employee transportation modes, Developer may use some or all of the information from said tool to calculate AVR so long as the information used reflects a statistically representative sample of peak period employees. If the follow-up monitoring report documents that the Project continues to not achieve the applicable AVR Target, Developer shall pay the City a penalty (“Compliance Penalty”) of the lesser of (a) the Alternative Compliance Fee pursuant to SMMC Section 9.53.140(E) or (b) a Project-Specific Penalty Fee calculated as follows:
Step 1:
Step 2:
Exhibit “H”, Page 7
Step 3:
Step 4:
Project-Specific Penalty Fee = Project-Specific Penalty Fee Rate x Daily Vehicle Reduction Needed to Achieve AVR Target x Workdays Per Year (based on 22 workdays per month) For the purpose of the above calculation: (a) the Project-Specific Penalty Fee Rate shall be the per employee Daily Transportation Allowance as defined in Exhibit H, Section (e)(1)(xv) below; and (b) Total Employee Trips Per Week and Total Vehicle Trips Per Week shall be defined as the sum of both the AM and PM Employee Trips and Vehicle Trips.
Payment of the Compliance Penalty does not constitute AVR attainment and the Developer shall continue to work with the City to modify the TDM plan to reach attainment of the AVR target.
Any Compliance Penalty funds shall be used to pay for the cost of TDM administration, outreach, implementation, and other trip reduction activities intended to offset any employee trips produced by the Project in excess of the target AVR.
B. Failure to Achieve AVR Not a Default.
Developer’s failure to achieve the AVR Target will not constitute a default under this Agreement so long as (a) Developer is continuing to implement additional measures designed to achieve compliance with its AVR Target pursuant to Exhibit H, Section (e)(1)(v)(A) above and (b) Developer has paid the Compliance Penalty pursuant to Exhibit H, Section (e)(1)(v)(A) above.
C. AVR Calculation. AVR calculations and
documentation for a monitoring year shall be based on data obtained from cumulative employee surveys for the Project, undertaken for one consecutive week each year. The survey must be conducted in accordance with SMMC Section 9.53.060(B)(2)(d), except that zero emission vehicles shall be counted as a vehicle arriving at the worksite. (vi) New Employee Orientation. As part of new employee
orientation for new employees of Developer, Developer shall notify Project employees in writing regarding the Project’s TDM Plan, including the TDM Plan’s incentives for employees to commute to/from the Project via a non-single occupancy vehicle commute mode.
Developer shall write the requirements of the New Employee Orientation into any leases executed with commercial tenants of the Project, who shall have ultimate responsibility for adherence to the New Employee Orientation requirements by their own employees. Failure of such tenant to comply with the New Employee Orientation requirement shall not constitute a Default by Developer under this Agreement so long as such tenant’s lease requires such compliance and Developer is actively pursuing reasonable enforcement actions to bring such tenant into compliance with this lease provision.
Exhibit “H”, Page 8
(vii) Parking Cash Out. Developer shall require all commercial tenants to meet the requirements of California Health and Safety Code Section 43845, if applicable (the “Parking Cash Out”). Developer shall require that commercial tenants require its employees accepting the parking cash out to execute a contract agreeing said employee did not utilize a single occupancy vehicle for the majority (at least 51%) of their daily commute distance and did not park in the City of Santa Monica. If an employee is eligible to receive both (a) the Parking Cash Out described in this section and (b) the Daily Transportation Allowance described in Exhibit H, Section (e)(1)(xv) below, commercial tenant shall only be required to offer such employee the greater of the Parking Cash Out and the Daily Transportation Allowance.
Developer shall write the requirements of the Parking Cash Out into any leases executed with commercial tenants of the Project. Commercial tenants shall have ultimate responsibility for adherence to the Parking Cash Out requirements. Failure of such tenant to comply with the Parking Cash Out requirement shall not constitute a Default by Developer under this Agreement so long as such tenant’s lease requires such compliance and Developer is actively pursuing reasonable enforcement actions to bring such tenant into compliance with this lease provision. (viii) Employee Incentives Living Close to Project. Developer shall provide incentives for employees that live within one-half mile of the Project to commute to/from the Project via a non-single occupancy vehicle commute mode. Details of the incentives shall be specified in the TDM Plan.
(ix) Bicycle Commuting Training Information. Developer shall provide information regarding availability of bike commute training either on-site or offsite, including on the internet. Such information may be provided by a third-party. (x) Shared Bicycles/Mobility Devices. If City-sponsored Citywide bikeshare or dockless mobility devices are not available within a 2-block radius of the Project site, Developer shall provide free on-site shared bicycles intended for employee use during the workday (e.g. Bike@Work Program).
(xi) Free Bike Valet. Developer shall provide bike valet service, free of charge, during all automobile valet operating hours. This requirement shall only apply if automobile valet service is provided.
(xii) Commuter Matching Services. Developer shall provide commuter matching services for all of its employees on an annual basis and for all of its new employees upon hiring.
(xiii) Employee Flex-Time Schedule. Developer shall provide information about any options available for compressed work schedule, flex-time schedule, and telecommuting and the benefits of such options.
(xiv) Employee Guaranteed Return Trip. Developer shall
provide its employees who rideshare or bicycle to work (this includes transit riders, vanpoolers, walkers, carpool), with a return trip to their point of commute origin at no additional cost to the employee, when a personal emergency situation or unplanned overtime requires it. The Exhibit “H”, Page 9
Developer shall also write the requirements of the Employee Guaranteed Return Trip into any leases it executes as landlord for space within the Project.
Commercial tenants shall have ultimate responsibility for adherence to the Employee Guaranteed Return Trip requirements. Failure of such tenant to comply with the Employee Guaranteed Return Trip requirement shall not constitute a Default by Developer under this Agreement so long as such tenant’s lease requires such compliance and Developer is actively pursuing reasonable enforcement actions to bring such tenant into compliance with this lease provision. (xv) Daily Transportation Allowance. Developer shall provide employees who use a non-single occupancy vehicle commute mode a daily direct cash subsidy/transportation allowance for each day that they use a non-single occupancy -vehicle commute mode equal to at least 100% of the value of the applicable monthly regional transit pass (i.e., the level of transit pass necessary for commuting to/from employee’s home to the Property) divided by 20 (the “Daily Transportation Allowance”). Developer and City agree that the Metro EZ Pass (or a pass of no substantially greater geographic coverage in this same region) constitutes an applicable regional transit pass and that Developer shall not be obligated to pay for any pass that exceeds the cost of the Metro EZ Pass. If the monthly regional transit pass becomes free, the transportation allowance provided for in this section amount shall be set by Council, provided that such amount is no greater than the lower of (a) that substitute amount charged to other developers (as defined in SMMC 9.53.020(J)) in the DCP area, and (b) the amount of the transportation allowance in effect immediately before the monthly regional transit pass becomes free. An employee accepting the Daily Transportation Allowance shall be required to (i) execute a contract agreeing said employee will not utilize a single occupancy vehicle for the majority (at least 51%) of their daily commute distance and (ii) shall be required to submit a daily commute tracking form affirming that said employee utilized an eligible non-single occupancy vehicle commute mode for at least 51% of their daily commute. The subsidies will be disbursed quarterly at a minimum. The employee recipient must demonstrate compliance as reasonably required by Developer.
Notwithstanding the above, in the event a commercial tenant’s employee qualifies for the Parking Cash Out described in Exhibit H, Section (e)(1)(vii) above, the value of the Daily Transportation Allowance for such commercial tenant’s employees must be at least 110% of the value of the Parking Cash Out divided by 20 and the commercial tenant shall only be required to offer such employee the Daily Transportation Allowance described in this section and not also the Parking Cash Out. Developer shall write the Daily Transportation Allowance requirements into any leases executed with commercial tenants of the Project. Failure of such tenant to comply with the Daily Transportation Allowance requirements shall not constitute a Default by Developer under this Agreement so long as such tenant’s lease requires such compliance and Developer is actively pursuing reasonable enforcement actions to bring such tenant into compliance with this lease provision.
(xvi) Customer and Visitor Incentives. Developer shall provide customer and visitor incentives for uses with significant numbers of customers and visitors such as retail, food service and hospitality. Such incentives shall include the following:
A. Customer incentive program
Exhibit “H”, Page 10
B. Public directions prioritizing rideshare modes
C. Special events rideshare services
D. Shared ride service
(2) Measures Applicable to Project’s Residential Component:
(i) Unbundled Parking. Developer shall not require residents of the rental housing units to lease parking spaces. Any parking space leased by such tenants shall be a separate line item on the lease and priced in accordance with Exhibit H, Section (e)(1)(iv). Developer may, subject to the Department of Transportation Director’s approval, reconfigure the parking spaces and operations from time-to-time in order to facilitate unbundling of parking.
Residential unbundled parking spaces that are not leased or sold to on-site users built for their unit or use may be used for other on-site uses, leased to other on-site tenants, or leased to off-site users on a month-to-month basis.
If the California Coastal Commission refuses to approve this requirement for unbundled parking for the residential rental housing units this provision shall be null and void and an amendment to this Agreement shall not be required.
(ii) Transportation Welcome Package for Residents. The
Developer shall provide new residents of the rental housing units of the Project with one Transportation Welcome Package. The welcome package shall, at a minimum, include the information required in Exhibit H, Section (d)(1)(i)(A)-(F), above. (iii) Local Preference Marketing Plan. The Developer shall prepare and implement a marketing and outreach program for the rental of the rental housing units, except for any on-site affordable units. This marketing and outreach program shall target (i) employees of the City’s police and fire departments, (ii) employees of local hospitals and healthcare providers, (iii) employees of the Santa Monica Malibu Unified School District, (iv) employees of businesses located within a one- half mile radius of the Property, and (v) employees of businesses outside the one-half mile radius but within the City of Santa Monica. In leasing units, the Developer shall give priority to applicants in the foregoing categories, provided that all such applicants meet generally applicable leasing qualifications and criteria imposed by such Developer. Nothing in this Agreement shall require that any units in the Project be occupied by such persons.
(iv) TMO Participation. The Developer shall actively
participate in the ongoing activities of a certified TMO, if established or any successor entity, and includes the Project site, including attendance at organizational meetings, and making information available to Project residents about the services provided by the TMO. (v) Monthly Transportation Allowance. Developer shall offer a monthly transportation allowance equal to at least 100% of the current cost of a monthly regional transit pass of the resident’s choice (e.g., Big Blue Bus, 30-Day Pass, Metro EZ Pass, Exhibit “H”, Page 11
Metro TAP Pass or equivalent) (the “Monthly Transportation Allowance”). Developer and City agree that the Metro EZ Pass (or a pass of no substantially greater geographic coverage in this same region) constitutes an applicable regional transit pass and that Developer shall not be obligated to pay for any pass that exceeds the cost of the Metro EZ Pass. The Monthly Transportation Allowance shall be offered to all residents listed on a lease and their immediate family living at the same address. Immediate family includes spouse, partner, children, parents, grandparents, brother, sister, father-in-law, mother-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, aunt, uncle, niece, nephew, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law. If any resident qualifies for a discounted transit pass (e.g. senior or child), Developer shall only be obligated to pay the discounted rate applicable to such resident. A resident accepting the Monthly Transportation Allowance shall not lease parking and shall be required to execute a contract agreeing that said resident does not own or long-term lease an automobile in association with a residential use Santa Monica and will not own or long-term lease an automobile in association with a residential use Santa Monica for so long as they are in receipt of the Monthly Transportation Allowance. The contract shall also specify the resident’s non-single occupancy vehicle commute mode (e.g., transit, bike, walk).
Children who reside full-time at the building shall be eligible for the Monthly Transportation Allowance if the parent that is primarily responsible for transporting the child is also eligible for the Monthly Transportation Allowance. The child’s parent or guardian shall sign an affidavit stating that the child permanently resides at the building on a full-time basis, and the child is primarily transported by a parent or guardian on the lease that is eligible for the Monthly Transportation Allowance.
(f) Changes to TDM Plan. Subject to approval by the Department of Transportation Director or his/her designee, the Developer may modify the TDM Plan provided the TDM Plan, as modified, is reasonably anticipated to be equal or superior in its effectiveness at mitigating the traffic-generating effects of the Project.

Local Hiring Policy For Construction. Developer shall implement a local hiring policy (the “Local Hiring Policy”) for construction of the Project, consistent with the following guidelines:
1. Purpose. The purpose of the Local Hiring Policy is to facilitate the employment by Developer and its contractors at the Project of residents of the City of Santa Monica (the “Targeted Job Applicants”), and in particular, those residents who are “Low-Income Individuals” (defined below) by ensuring Targeted Job Applicants are aware of Project construction employment opportunities and have a fair opportunity to apply and compete for such jobs.
2. Findings.
a. Approximately 73,000-74,000 individuals work in the City. The City has a resident labor force of approximately 57,300. However, only about one-third (32.2 percent) of the City's resident labor force works at jobs located in the City, with the balance working outside of the City. Consequently, a significant portion of the City's resident and non-resident work force is required to commute long distances to find work, causing increased traffic on state highways, increased pollution, increased use of gas and other fuels and other serious environmental impacts.
b. Due to their employment outside of the City, many residents of the City are forced to leave for work very early in the morning and return late in the evening, often leaving children and teenagers alone and unsupervised during the hours between school and the parent return from work outside the area. c. The Pico Neighborhood is Santa Monica’s most culturally diverse and economically disadvantaged neighborhood. Serving the most vulnerable members of the Pico Neighborhood has long been a priority for the City of Santa Monica.
Economic recovery and improvement programs, such as local hire opportunities with prioritization for residents in the Pico Neighborhood, defined as the 90404 zip code, would be one important step to support these priorities. d. Of the approximately 45,000 households in the City, thirty percent are defined as low-income households or lower, with eleven percent of these households defined as extremely low income and eight percent very low income. Approximately
7.6% of the City's residents are unemployed.
e. By ensuring that Targeted Job Applicants are aware of and have a fair opportunity to compete for Project Construction jobs, this Local Hiring Policy will facilitate job opportunities to City residents which would expand the City's employment base and reduce the impacts on the environment caused by long commuting times to jobs outside the area.
Exhibit “I-1”, Page 2
3. Definitions.
a. “Contract” means a contract or other agreement for the providing of any combination of labor, materials, supplies, and equipment to the construction of the Project that will result in On-Site Jobs, directly or indirectly, either pursuant to the terms of such contract or other agreement or through one or more subcontracts. b. “Contractor” means a prime contractor, a sub-contractor, or any other entity that enters into a Contract with Developer for any portion or component of the work necessary to construct the Project (excluding architectural, design and other “soft” components of the construction of the Project).
c. “Low Income Individual” means a resident of the City of Santa Monica whose household income is no greater than 80% of the Median Income. d. “Median Income means the median family income published from time to time by HUD for the Los Angeles-Long Beach Metropolitan Statistical Area. e. “On-Site Jobs” means all jobs by a Contractor under a Contract for which at least fifty percent (50%) of the work hours for such job requires the employee to be at the Project site, regardless of whether such job is in the nature of an employee or an independent contractor. On-Site Jobs shall not include jobs at the Project site which will be performed by the Contractor’s established work crew who have not been hired specifically to work at the Project site.
4. Priority for Targeted Job Applicants. Subject to Section 7 below in this Exhibit “I-1,” the Local Hiring Policy provides that the Targeted Job Applicants shall be considered for each On-Site Job in the following order of priority:
a. First Priority: Any resident of a household with no greater than 80% Median Income that resides within the Low and Moderate Income Areas identified in Map 2-7 of the City of Santa Monica’s Adopted 6th Cycle 2021-2029 Housing Element or any resident who resides in Santa Monica’s 90404 zip code (Pico Neighborhood);
b. Second Priority: Any resident of a household with no greater than 80% Median Income that resides within the City; and
c. Third Priority: Any resident of a household with no greater than 80% Median Income that resides within a five (5) mile radius of the project site.
For purposes of this Local Hiring Policy, Developer and/or its Contractors are authorized to rely on the most recent year’s income tax records (W-2) and proof of residency (e.g. driver’s license, utility bill, voter registration) if voluntarily submitted by a prospective job applicant for purposes of assessing a Targeted Job Applicant’s place of residence and income.
Exhibit “I-1”, Page 3
5. Coverage. The Local Hiring Policy shall apply to all hiring for On-Site Jobs related to the construction of the Project, by Developer and its Contractors.
6. Outreach. So that Targeted Job Applicants are made aware of the availability of On-Site Jobs, Developer or its Contractors shall advertise available On-Site Jobs in the Santa Monica Daily Press or similar local media and electronically on a City-sponsored website, if such a resource exists. In addition, Developer shall consult with and provide written notice to at least five first source hiring organizations, which may include but are not limited to the following:
(a) Local first source hiring programs.
(b) Trade unions.
(c) Apprenticeship programs at local colleges.
(d) Santa Monica educational institutions.
(e) Other non-profit organizations involved in referring eligible applicants for job opportunities.
Developer shall also notify the City’s Director of Community Development, or his or her designee, of the availability of On-Site Jobs and solicit the City’s input as to first source hiring organizations or other organizations to provide notice of the On-Site Jobs. If the City’s Director of Community Development, or his or her designee, does not respond to a request for input with thirty (30) days of Developer’s request, Developer’s obligation to solicit City’s input under this Exhibit “I-1”, Section 6 shall be satisfied.
7. Hiring. Developer and its contractor(s) shall consider in good faith all applications submitted by Targeted Job Applicants for On-Site Jobs, in accordance with their normal practice to hire the most qualified candidate for each position and shall make a good faith effort to hire Targeted Job Applicants when most qualified or equally qualified as other applicants. The City acknowledges that the Contractors shall determine in their respective subjective business judgment whether any particular Targeted Job Applicant is qualified to perform the On-Site Job for which such Targeted Job Applicant has applied.
Contactors are not precluded from advertising regionally or nationally for employees in addition to its local outreach efforts.
8. Term. The Local Hiring Policy shall continue to apply to the construction of the Project until the final certificate of occupancy for the Project has been issued by the City.

The purpose of the Local Hiring Policy is to facilitate the employment by the commercial tenants of the Project of residents of the City of Santa Monica (the “Targeted Job Applicants”), and in particular, those residents who are “Low-Income Individuals” (defined below) by ensuring Targeted Job Applicants are aware of Project employment opportunities and have a fair opportunity to apply and compete for such jobs. The goal of this policy is local hiring.
2. Findings.
a. Approximately 73,000-74,000 individuals work in the City. The City has a resident labor force of approximately 57,300. However, only about one-third (32.2 percent) of the City's resident labor force works at jobs located in the City, with the balance working outside of the City.

b. Due to their employment outside of the City, many residents of the City are forced to leave for work very early in the morning and return late in the evening, often leaving children and teenagers alone and unsupervised during the hours between school and the parent return from work outside the area. c. The Pico Neighborhood is Santa Monica’s most culturally diverse and economically disadvantaged neighborhood. Serving the most vulnerable members of the Pico Neighborhood has long been a priority for the City of Santa Monica.
Economic recovery and improvement programs, such as local hire opportunities with prioritization for residents in the Pico Neighborhood, defined as the 90404 zip code, would be one important step to support these priorities. d. Of the approximately 45,000 households in the City, thirty percent are defined as low-income households or lower, with eleven percent of these households defined as extremely low income and eight percent very low income.

These indemnification provisions shall survive the termination of this Agreement as to any and all claims arising during the Term of this Agreement.
SECTION 16. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR.
It is understood and agreed that Developer, in the performance of this Agreement, will be acting in the wholly independent capacity and not as the agent, employee, partner, or joint venturer of the City.
SECTION 17. DEFAULT.
17.1 Material Events of Default. The failure of Developer to perform any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Agreement, including, the obligation to maintain and repair the Platform, Tunnels, and/or Pedestrian Mall, where such failure continues without Developer having initiated steps to remedy for longer than thirty (30) calendar days after written notice thereof from the City to the Developer shall constitute a material default and breach of this Agreement by Developer.
17.2 Notice of Default and Opportunity to Cure. In the event Developer fails or refuses to perform any material provisions of this Agreement at the time and in the manner required hereunder, City shall send to Developer a notice of default. If such default is not cured within a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by Developer from City of written notice of default, the remedies in Section 17.3 shall apply; provided, however, that if the nature of Developer’s noncompliance is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Developer shall not be deemed to be in default if Developer commenced such cure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion.
