Safety Code must be paid by the Agency to the County and the Educational Revenue
Augmentation Fund pursuant to California Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 97 and 97.5 and

Health and Safety Code Sections 33334.2 and/or 33680, et seq., or other sections of the
Community Redevelopment Law, may incrtmse or decrease the net amount of Tax Increment

agree that no such statutory changes shall entitle the parties to modify or terminate this
Agreement, or to seek a change in the definition of Tax Increment or in the tax sharing formula
set forth in this Agreement.
Subject to Section 2.1 of this Agreement, it is further understood by the
parties that certain additional amounts of the taxes allocated to the Agency pursuant to Section
33670 of the California Health and Safety (,'ode may be required to be set aside or paid to
affected taxing entities, particularly school districts and community college districts, to meet
legislative requirements which may be imp(~sed on some or all redevelopment agencies pursuant

potential legislative changes to the Community Redevelopment Law may increase or decrease the
net amount of Tax Increment which is available to the Agency and thus available for phyment to

owing to the District pursuant to this Agreement, the full amount of such deficit shall be paid by
the Agency to the District pursuant to this Section 1.5 in the following Fiscal Year. The parties
agree that this deferral is necessary to accomplish the purposes of the Plan at an earlier time than
would otherwise be the case in that such deferral would allow for issuance of bonds with a higher
principal amount. Nothing in this Agreen~ent shall be construed to give the District the right to
approve any Agency indebtedness, including, without limitation, Bonded Indebtedness.
(f) The Agency may incur a deficit and defer payment to the District
pursuant to this Agreement for a maximu~n of three (3) years, at which time the Agency shall pay
the District the full amount due of such deferred Tax Increment together with interest at a rate
equal to the average coupon rate of the bonds to which the deferred amount payable to the
District is subordinate. The District may request from time to time that the Agency, in
connection with the Agency's election to issue and sell bonds secured by Tax Increment from the
Redevelopment Project Area under the PI:m, include in the sizing of the bond issuance an amount
to be secured by the Tax Increment payable to the District pursuant to Section 1.2 of this
Agreement. Such request by the District shall be subject in all respects to the Agency's full
discretion to determine the amount of the bond issue, maturity, interest rates and all other
material terms. The Agency agrees to consider in good faith such request and endeavor to
include such amount in the bond issuance. In the event bonds are issued pursuant to this
paragraph, the Agency shall pay to the District, upon receipt, that portion of the bond proceeds
which is secured by the Tax Increment payable to the District pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof (as
reduced by the pro rata costs of issuance, reserve funds and all other amounts allocable to that
portion of the bond issuance secured by the Tax Increment). To the extent of such payment, the
Agency's obligation pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof to pay Tax Increment shall be fully satisfied.
The District shall evidence in writing, to lhe satisfaction of Agency's bond counsel, its consent to
the terms of the issuance and the extingui::;hment of the Agency's obligation to pay the
corresponding Tax Increment. The District acknowledges that numerous laws, restrictions and
regulations apply to the issuance of bonds and if bonds are issued pursuant to this paragraph and
the Tax Increment is included in the issuance, then the District agrees to comply with all
requirements that Agency's bond counsel ,may deem applicable in its judgment, including, without
limitation, all applicable federal tax and security law requirements and all other applica.ble
requirements of state and federal law.
(g) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 1.5, no
payment shall be made by the Agency in any Fiscal Year pursuant to this Agreement if such
payment would impair any contract, obligation to service Bonded Indebtedness or any other
existing obligation entered into by the Agency prior to the execution of this Agreement.
(h) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the
contrary, the Agency's obligation to make payments to the District under this Agreement in any
single Fiscal Year shall not: (i) exceed the amount of Tax Increment which would have been
received by the District if all the Tax Increment from the Redevelopment Project Area had been
allocated to all the affected taxing agencie:i without rdgard to the division of taxes required by
Health and Safety Code Section 33670; (ii) violate the expenditure limitation under Article XIIIB
of the California Constitution; or (iii) be contrary to any provision of the laws of the State of
California.
(i) No paymenB shall be made by the Agency to the District, either

1.2 and 1.5 of this Agreement.

the City and their respective officers, employees, representatives and agents from any and all
claims, liabilities and causes of action asserted by any third party against the Agency or the City
by reason of the Agency's payment of funds in the manner described in Section 1.2 of this
Agreement.

limited to Tax Increment from the Redevelopment Project Area which is actually received and
retained by the Agency. In no way shall the Agency be liable for such obligations from any
other revenues. The City shall have no fir~ancial obligation or any other obligations by virtue of
this Agreement, and shall not be responsible for the discharge of obligations of the Agency
herein.
(c) It is understood that certain amounts of the taxes allocated to the
Agency pursuant to Section 33670 of the Calilbrnia Health and Safety Code must be set aside by
thc Agency in special funds to service bo~ded indebtedness and to meet the Agency's obligation
under Health and Safety Code Section 33334.2, or a successor statute. It is also understood that
certain amounts of the taxes allocated to tl~e Agency pursuant to Section 33670 of the Health and
Safety Code must be paid by the Agency ~:o the County and the Educational Revenue
Augmentation Fund pursuant to California Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 97 and 97.5 and

(d) The parties understand that future legislative changes made to
Health and Safety Code Sections 33334.2 and/or 33680, et seq., or other sections of the
Community Redevelopment Law, may increase or decrease the net amount of Tax Increment
which is available to the Agency and which is payable to the Fund hereunder, and the parties
agree that no such statutory changes shall entitle the parties to modify or terminate this
Agreement, or to seek a change in the definition of Tax Increment or in the tax sharing formula
set forth in this Agreement.
Subject to Section 2.1 of this Agreement, it is further understood by the
parties that certain additional amounts of lhe taxes allocated to the Agency pursuant to Section
33670 of thc California Health and Safety Code may be required to be set aside or paid to
affected taxing entities, particularly school districts and community college districts to tneet
legislative requirements which may be imposed on some or all redevelopment agencies pursuant
I'UBL:7509 213361 B2621.40
to currently existing, proposed or subsequent legislation. The parties understand that such
potential legislative changes to the Community Redevelopment Law may increase or decrease the
net amount of Tax Increment which is available to the Agency and thus available for payment to
the Fund hereunder.
Subject to the rights of the Superintendent and/or the Agency to terminate
this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof and to the extent the parties elect to proceed

the Agency and offset and deducted from the amounts due by the Agency to the Fund pursuant to
Section 1.2 hereof, or alternatively, in any year if no payments by the Agency to the District are

amount excepted shall be included within the amount of available Tax Increment for the payment
by the Agency to the Fund required by Section 1.2 hereof.
(e) Subject to paragraph (c) of this Section 1.5, the Agency agrees to
size any flm~re Bonded Indebtedness in such a way that sufficient funds will be available to
satisfy its obligations to the Superintende~t pursuant to this Agreement. Subject to paragraph fi)
of this Section 1.5, if, during any Fiscal Year, the Agency is unable to pay the full amount due
and owing to the Fund pursuant to this Agreement, the full amount of such deficit shall be paid
by the Agency to the Fund pursuant to this Section 1.5 in the following Fiscal Year, together
with interest at a rate equal to the average coupon rate on the bonds to which the delayed amount
payable to the Fund is subordinate. The l)arties agree that this deferral is necessary to
accomplish the purposes of the Plan at an earlier time than would otherwise be the case in that
such deferral would allow for issuance of bonds with a higher principal amount. Nothing in this
Agreement shall be construed to give the Superintendent the right to approve any Agency
indebtedness, including, without limitatiort, Bonded Indebtedness.
(f) The Agency may incur a deficit and defer payment to the Fund
pursuant to this Agreement for a maximmn of two (2) years, at which time the Agency shall pay
the Fund the full amount due of such delayed payment of Tax Increment together with interest at
a rate equal to the average coupon rate of the bonds to which the delayed amount payable to the
Fund is subordinate. The Superintendent may request from time to time that the Agency, in
connection with the Agency's election to issue and sell bonds secured by Tax Increment from the
Redevelopment Project Area under the Plan, include in the sizing of the bond issuance an amount
to be secured by the Tax Increment payable to the Fund pursuant to Section 1.2 of this
Agreement. Such request by the Superinlendent shall be subject in all respects to the Agency's
fi~ll discretion to determine the amount of the bond issue, maturity, interest rates and all other
material terms. The Agency agrees to consider in good faith such request and endeavor to
include such amount in the bond issuance In the event bonds are issued pursuant to this
paragraph, the Agency shall pay to the St~.perintendent, upon receipt, that portion of the bond
proceeds which is secured by the Tax Increment payable to the Fund pursuant to Section 1.2
hereof (as reduced by the pro rata costs of issuance, reserve fimds and all other amounts
allocable to that portion of the bond issuance secured by the Tax Increment). To the extent of
such payment, the Agency's obligation pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof to pay Tax Increment shall
be fully satisfied. The Superintendent shall evidence in writing, to the satisfaction of Agency's
bond counsel, its consent to the terms of ~he issuance anti the extinguishment of the Agency's
obligation to pay the corresponding Tax Increment. The Superintendent acknowledges that
mJm.:7500 _21336[ B2621.40
numerous laws, restrictions and regulation:g apply to the issuance of bonds and. if bonds are issued
pursuant to this paragraph and file Tax Increment is included in the issuance, then the
Superintendent agrees to comply with all requirements that Agency's bond counsel may deem
applicable in its judgment, including, withl)ut limitation, all applicable federal tax and security
law requirements and all other applicable requirements of state and federal law.
(g) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 1.5, no
payment shall be made by the Agency in any Fiscal Year pursuant to this Agreeznent if such
payment would impair any contract, obligation to service Bonded Indebtedness or any other
existing obligation entered into by the Agency prior to the execution of this Agreement.
(h) Notwithstamling any other provisions of this Agreement to the
contrary, the Agency's obligation to make payments to the Fund under this Agreement in any
single Fiscal Year shall not: (i) exceed the amount of Tax Increment which would have been
received by the Superintendent if all the Tax Increment from the Redevelopment Project Area had
been allocated to all the affected taxing ag~:ncies without regard to the division of taxes required
by Health and Safety Code Section 33670; (ii) violate thc expenditure limitation under Article
XIIIB of the California Constitution; or (iii) be contrary to any provision of the laws of the State
of California.
(i) No payments shall be made by the Agency to the Fund, either from
Tax Increment or from any other source of fiinds, except as expressly set forth in Sections 1.2
and 1.5 of this Agreement.
(j) The Superintendent shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
Agency, the City and their respective officers, employees, representatives and agents from any
and all claims, liabilities and causes of action asserted by any third party against the Agency or
the City by reason of the Agency's payment of funds in the manner described in Section 1.2 of
this Agreement.
(k) In the event the Agency is unable to meet its obligation under this
Agreement, such monies due to the Superintendent shall be considered an indebtedness of the
Agency to Superintendent until such obligation is fi~lfilled. In that event the amount due shall
accrue interest until payment is made, computed quarterly at the pooled money investment rate of
the County of Orange ("County") as publi.~dled in its Quarterly Earnings Report or similar
comparable successor publication. Until s',ach amounts are paid with accrued interest, as
applicable, such amount due shall be paid from the first Tax Increment available to Agency on a
pro rata basis to the Superintendent (and the other taxing agencies with whom the Agency is
obligated under agreement(s) similar to this Agreement with respect to this project). Nothing in
this subdivision (k) shall cause or be construed to cause the obligation of payment by the Agency
to the Superintendent hereunder to be sup¢'rior to or have priority above any Bonded Indebtedness
of the Agency or any existing obligation of the Agency.
1.6 Use of Fund. The monies paid to tile Superintendent pursuant to Section
1.2 of this Agreement shall be used for lawful Superintendent purposes which will be of benefit
to the Redevelopment Project Area or any other redevelopment project areas adopted by the City.
Upon written request by the Agency, the Superintendent shall promptly provide without charge a
written statement accounting for the expenditure of monies deposited in the Fund.

Section 2. Administration.
2.1 Effective Date and Term. This Agreement shall become effective upon the
date of execution of this Agreement by the Agency (the "Effective Date") and shall remain in
effect until all Agency debts are paid pursuant to this Agreement, or until the limit for incurring
indebtedness as stated in the Plan expires, whichever event occurs last. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this Agreement shall terminate automatically and be of no further force or effect in the
event the City fails to adopt the Plan on or before December 31, 1993, or the adoption of the
Plan should be set aside or annulled as the result of litigation.
If as a result of the terms and conditions of this Agreement any department of the
State of California, the State of California Legislature, or a court of law imposes restrictions,
conditions, penalties, mandatory payments by the Agency to taxing entities, or any other
conditions or requirements, which in any way adversely affects the normal, accepted, and
standard revenue sources and accounting practices and amount of revenues with regards to the
financing of services and facilities of the Superintendent as provided for by the Community
Redevelopment Law or otherwise by the State of California, this Agreement shall be renegotiated
between the Superintendent and the Agency.
If any department of the State of California, the State of California Legislature, or
a court of law imposes restrictions, conditions, penalties, statutory requirements, mandatory
payments to taxing entities or any other requirements which in any way adversely affects the
current method of tax increment allocation and/or thereby the amount of tax increment payable to
and/or expendable by the Agency for non-.mandated purposes under the Plan, and/or the amount
of tax increment allocable to the Agency to pay the Superintendent, and/or the amount of funds
to be set aside or tnandated to be paid to ~r expended for taxing entities as provided for by the
Community Redevelopment Law or otherwise by the State of California, then this Agreement
shall be renegotiated between the Superintendent and the Agency.

Superintendent, and reasonably equivalent remaining tax increment funds allocable and paid to

circumstances at the time of such renegotiations, all in full compliance with the Community
Redevelopment Law and all other applicable laws.

determined to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason whatsoever, the remaining provisions
shall remain in effect, and the parties thereto shall take further actions as may be reasonably
necessary and available to them to effectuate the intent of the parties as to all provisions set forth
