2. RECITALS OF PREMISES, PURPOSE AND INTENT.
2.1 State Enabling Statute. To strengthen the public planning process, encourage private
participation in comprehensive planning and reduce the economic risk of development, the
Legislature of the State of California adopted the Development Agreement Act which authorizes
any city to enter into binding development agreements establishing certain development rights in
real property with persons having legal or equitable interests in such property. Section 65864 of
the Development Agreement Act expressly provides, in part, as follows:
The Legislature finds and declares that:
(a) The lack of certainty in the approval of development projects can result in
a waste of resources, escalate the cost of housing and other development to
the consumer, and discourage investment in and a commitment to
comprehensive planning which would make maximum efficient utilization
of resources at the least economic cost to the public.
(b) Assurance to the applicant for a development project that upon approval of
the project, the applicant may proceed with the project in accordance with
5598767.1 23
existing policies, rules and regulations, and subject to conditions of
approval will strengthen the public planning process, encourage private
participation in comprehensive planning, and reduce the economic cost of
development.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to ensure that the City remains responsive and accountable to its
residents while pursuing the benefits of development agreements contemplated by the Legislature,
the City: (1) accepts restraints on its police powers contained in development agreements only to
the extent and for the duration required to achieve the mutual objectives of the Parties; and (2) to
offset such restraints, seeks public benefits which go beyond those obtained by traditional City
controls and conditions imposed on development project applications.

the Enabling Ordinance and the Procedures Resolution; and (8) is entered into pursuant to and in
compliance with its charter powers and the requirements of Section 65867 of the Development
Agreement Act, the Enabling Ordinance and the Procedures Resolution. Based on these findings
and determinations, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. [insert number] on [Insert
Date], 2024, recommending to the City Council the approval of the Agreement.
2.2.2 City Council Action. On [Insert Date], 2024, as required by Section 65867
of the Development Agreement Act and Section 3.1 of the Procedures Resolution, the City Clerk
of the City caused public notice to be given of the City Council’s intention to consider adoption of

Agreement Act and Section 3.2 of the Procedures Resolution, the City Council held a public
hearing on the Agreement. On [Insert Date], 2024, an approving ordinance was introduced for
adoption by the City Council. On [Insert Date], 2024, the City Council, after considering the fact
that the FEIR was previously certified for the Project, found and determined that: (1) the FEIR
complied with all requirements of CEQA; (2) the Agreement is within the scope of the FEIR, and
was contemplated therein as part of the Project; (3) the Agreement is consistent with the City’s
General Plan and with the DRSP and the ARSP as amended by DisneylandForward; (4) the

adopted by the City Council. The City Council on [Insert Date], 2024, after conducting a duly-
noticed public hearing, adopted Ordinance No. [insert number], to become effective thirty days
after adoption of this Agreement, found that its provisions are consistent with the General Plan,
the DRSP and the ARSP, and authorized the execution of this Agreement.
2.3 Purpose of this Agreement.
2.3.1 Disney Objectives. In accordance with the legislative findings set forth in
the Development Agreement Act, and with full recognition of the City’s policy of judicious
restraints on its police powers, Disney wishes to obtain reasonable assurances that the Project may
be developed in accordance with the Applicable Rules subject to the terms of this Agreement and
the City’s Reserved Powers. In the absence of this Agreement, Disney would have no assurance
that it could complete the Project for the uses and to the density and intensity of development set
forth in this Agreement. This Agreement, therefore, is necessary to assure Disney that the Project
will not be (i) reduced in density, intensity or use, or (ii) subjected to new rules, regulations,
ordinances or official policies or delays which are not permitted by this Agreement or the Reserved
Powers.
2.3.2 Mutual Objectives. Development of the Project in accordance with this
Agreement will provide for the orderly development of the Project in accordance with the
objectives set forth in the General Plan, the DRSP and the ARSP. Moreover, a development
agreement for the Project will eliminate uncertainty in planning for and securing orderly
development of the Project, assure installation of necessary improvements, assure attainment of
maximum efficient resource utilization within the City at the least economic cost to its citizens and
otherwise achieve the goals and purposes for which the Development Agreement Act was enacted.
The Parties believe that such orderly development of the Project will provide many public benefits
to the City through the imposition of development standards and requirements under the provisions
and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation: increased tax revenues,
5598767.1 26
installation of on-site and off-site improvements, payment towards park improvements, affordable
housing, workforce development and job creation. Additionally, although development of the
Project in accordance with this Agreement will restrain the City’s land use or other relevant police
powers, the Agreement provides the City with sufficient reserved powers during the Term hereof
to remain responsible and accountable to its residents. In exchange for these and other benefits to
the City, Disney will receive assurance that the Project may be developed during the Term of this
Agreement in accordance with the Applicable Rules and Reserved Powers and subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement.
2.4 Applicability of the Agreement. This Agreement does not: (1) grant density, intensity or
uses in excess of that otherwise established in the Applicable Rules; (2) eliminate future
Discretionary Actions otherwise required under the Applicable Rules; (3) guarantee that Disney
will receive any profits from the Project; or (4) amend the City’s General Plan, the DRSP or the
ARSP. This Agreement has a fixed Term. Furthermore, in any subsequent actions applicable to
the Disney Property not related to the DRSP or the ARSP, the City may apply such new rules,
regulations, ordinances and officially adopted plans and policies as are then in effect.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed or understood to (i) limit the City’s rights to adopt and apply to the Disney Property new
rules, regulations, ordinances and officially adopted plans and policies of the City, where those
new rules, regulations, ordinances and officially adopted plans and policies do not conflict with
the Applicable Rules, or (ii) provide Disney with any vested rights except as affirmatively and
expressly stated in this Agreement.
3. AGREEMENT AND ASSURANCES.
3.1 Agreement and Assurance on the Part of Disney. In consideration for the City entering
into this Agreement, and as an inducement for the City to obligate itself to carry out the covenants
and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in order to effectuate the objectives, purposes and
intentions set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement, Disney hereby agrees as follows:
5598767.1 27
3.1.1 Opening Day Project. Pursuant to Development Agreement No. 96-01,
Disney completed construction of the Opening Day Project on or before the Opening Day in
accordance with the terms and conditions of Development Agreement No. 96-01. Disney and the
City agree and acknowledge after the final payment on the bonds issued pursuant to the Finance
Agreement, Disney may, but will no longer be obligated to maintain each and every component of

maintain the following components of the Opening Day Project throughout the Term: (1) a second
gated theme park designed to attract and accommodate a planned annual attendance of seven
million guests; (2) 1,886 Hotel Rooms, excluding vacation ownership resort units; and (3) a

resort units for a minimum of twenty (20) years from the Effective Date.
3.1.2 Initial Development Commitment for New Theme Park and Hotel
Improvements. Disney agrees to proceed with and pursue to Completion (as defined in Section
1.19) by the Initial Development Commitment Completion Date, Qualified Theme Park and/or
Lodging Improvements the Costs of which shall total no less than the Initial Development
Investment Threshold. The Parties further agree that Disney shall pay the City Five Million U.S.
Dollars ($5,000,000) no later than six (6) months after the Initial Development Commitment
Completion Date if Disney has not by that time Completed (subject to verification pursuant to
Section 3.1.2.2) Qualified Theme Park and/or Lodging Improvements the Costs of which equal or
exceed the Excess Investment Threshold. The Parties further acknowledge that Disney is currently
constructing and/or implementing certain Theme Park and Hotel projects pursuant to Development
Agreement 96-01, all as more particularly identified in Section 1.67 above and Exhibit E hereto
(“Current Projects”). The Parties agree that Disney’s commitment to construct Qualified Theme
5598767.1 28
Park and/or Lodging Improvements pursuant to this Section 3.1.2 is in addition to the Current
Projects, and that the Current Projects do not qualify as Qualified Theme Park and/or Lodging
Improvements in determining whether Disney has satisfied the Initial Development Investment
Threshold required pursuant to this Section 3.1.2 or the Excess Investment Threshold.
3.1.2.1 Qualified Theme Park and/or Lodging Improvements Compliance
with Project Approvals, Mitigation Measures and Conditions of Approval. In constructing any
elements of the Project including Qualified Theme Park and/or Lodging Improvements, Disney
shall comply with all Applicable Rules including without limitation the Project Approvals,
Mitigation Measures and the Conditions of Approval. Disney agrees that the City has sufficient
legal authority to adopt and to require Disney’s compliance with the Project Approvals including
the Mitigation Measures and Conditions of Approval in connection with the Project and Disney
agrees that it will not challenge the City’s right to adopt or to require Disney’s compliance with
the Project Approvals including the Mitigation Measures and Conditions of Approval; provided,
however, nothing herein shall limit or restrict Disney’s right to challenge any interpretation by the
City of any Project Approvals including the Mitigation Measures and Conditions of Approval or
the way or method the City directs the implementation of such Project Approvals including the
Mitigation Measures and Conditions of Approval, provided such challenge shall be brought only
through an action for declaratory relief, specific performance, or injunctive relief.
3.1.2.2 Costs Verification. No later than six (6) months after the Initial
Development Commitment Completion Date, Disney shall submit to the City Manager an
Accounting Opinion verifying that Disney or an Affiliate of Disney has in fact incurred Costs with
respect to one or more Qualified Theme Park and/or Lodging Improvements (as defined in Section
1.21) and the amount of the incurred Costs. The City Manager or his/her designee shall have the
authority on the City’s behalf to review and approve the Accounting Opinion, and to challenge
whether certain amounts are properly qualified as “Costs” pursuant to this Agreement and/or
reasonably require additional information related to the Accounting Opinion within thirty (30)
5598767.1 29
days from the date Disney provides the Accounting Opinion to the City. Approval by the City
Manager shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or denied. Any disapproval shall be in
writing and shall state the reasons therefor and any request for follow up information. In the event
of a partial approval, the City Manager’s (or designee’s) writing shall identify the item(s) and
amount(s) approved and the item(s) and amount(s) disapproved. After any disapproval, Disney
shall have the right to submit additional information in order to obtain an approval, in which case
the City Manager’s (or designee’s) review and approval/disapproval shall be subject to the same
procedures and deadlines as set forth above for the initial submittal. Disney shall be deemed to
have satisfied its obligations and the condition set forth above when the City Manager (or designee)
has approved Costs equal to or exceeding the Initial Development Investment Threshold or, as
applicable, the Excess Investment Threshold.
3.1.2.3 Consideration for Excess Investment. The City recognizes the
significant additional economic benefits that would accrue to the City if Disney were to invest in
Qualified Theme Park and/or Lodging Improvements to a level beyond the Initial Development
Investment Threshold. As such, the City agrees that if the Costs verification and approval process
described in Section 3.1.2.2 above confirms that Disney has Completed Qualified Theme Park
and/or Lodging Improvements on or before the Initial Development Commitment Completion
Date and that the Costs of the Qualified Theme Park and/or Lodging Improvements equals or
exceeds the Excess Investment Threshold, then the requirement of additional consideration set
forth in the second sentence of Section 3.1.2 shall not apply.
3.1.3 Affordable Housing Payment. Disney shall pay in two installments a total of
Thirty Million Dollars U.S. ($30,000,000) into a public trust established or specified by the City
to be used to provide affordable housing residential units and housing affordability programs as
determined by the City in its sole discretion (“Affordable Housing Payment”). Disney shall
make the first payment of Fifteen Million Dollars U.S. ($15,000,000) to the City for payment into
the designated public trust no later than one year after the Effective Date unless an Enforced Delay
5598767.1 30
event as set forth in Section 6.4 causes a delay in the Effective Date. Disney shall make the second
payment of Fifteen Million Dollars U.S. ($15,000,000) to the City for payment into the designated
public trust no later than five years after the Effective Date unless an Enforced Delay event as set
forth in Section 6.4 causes a delay in the Effective Date. The City shall require that the designated
public trust that receives funding from the Affordable Housing Payment, in exchange for receiving
the Affordable Housing Payment funds, shall commit to using the funds to provide affordable
housing residential units and housing affordability programs in the City, the details of which shall
be determined by the City in its sole discretion within the legal constraints of the designated public
trust. The City and Disney acknowledge that the Anaheim Housing Authority may ultimately
manage, administer and/or expend the funds from the Affordable Housing Payment in accordance
with the designated public trust’s purposes, and agree that such a role is not inconsistent with the
Parties’ intent herein.
3.1.4 Park Improvement Payment. Disney shall pay the City Eight Million Dollars
U.S. ($8,000,000) to be used for park improvements outside of The Anaheim Resort as determined
by the City in its sole discretion (Park Improvement Payment”). Disney shall pay the Park
Improvement Payment to the City no later than one year after the Effective Date.
3.1.5 Future Vacation Ownership Resorts; Agreements Concerning Payments In-
Lieu of Transient Occupancy Tax and ATID. Recognizing that the Anaheim Municipal Code
requires an agreement for each discrete vacation ownership resort project developed in the City
relating to the payment of in-lieu transient occupancy taxes (“TOT”), this Section shall be used to
guide preparation of each such agreement required for any development by Disney or its affiliates
of projects containing its branded vacation ownership resorts, commonly known as Disney
Vacation Club (“DVC”). In general, the form of the October 6, 2020 Transient Occupancy Tax
Agreement for DVC at Disneyland Hotel including the TOT rate escalation provision set forth
therein will be used for any new DVC project in the Anaheim Resort (each, a “DVC Project”)
initiated after the approval of this Development Agreement; provided, however, that said
5598767.1 31
agreement shall be tailored to the new DVC Project in its basics and with additional changes made
to the Agreement as described more fully in Exhibit L to this Agreement in order to effectuate the
Parties’ intent that the in-lieu TOT paid to the City for all future DVC projects approximate
economic parity with the market rates and associated TOT paid for that project’s comparable Hotel
rooms (in each case and as determined according to the process described in Exhibit L, the DVC
Project’s “Comp Set”) to the full extent feasible throughout the Term of that DVC Project’s TOT
agreement. In addition, Disney agrees that in the event that the City seeks to modify the bylaws
and/or other formation documents of the Anaheim Tourism Improvement District (“ATID”) or
any successor agency serving the same or a similar purpose as ATID, in order to apply the existing
ATID assessment to all newly constructed vacation ownership resort units including any newly
constructed DVC units within the current or future ATID or successor agency boundary on a
prospective basis, Disney agrees to vote in favor of such a modification to the ATID or Successor
Agency documents; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a
requirement for Disney to vote to approve a higher ATID assessment than the existing two percent
(2%) of hotel room “rent” (as defined in Anaheim Municipal Code Section 2.12.005.140).
3.1.6 Katella Sewer Deficiency Related Improvements. Disney shall pay the
City Ten Million Dollars U.S. ($10,000,000) (“Sewer Cost Obligation”), for the design,
engineering, right of way, construction and construction management costs including reasonable
contingencies (for purposes of this Section 3.1.6 only, “Costs”) of improvements to the City’s
sewer system in Katella Avenue between Harbor Boulevard and Ninth Street that the City
determines are necessary to adequately address the deficiency therein which is modeled and
identified in the City of Anaheim DisneylandForward Sewer Study (Psomas 2023b) prepared for
DisneylandForward and included as Appendix L-2 of the FEIR (“Katella Sewer Improvements”).
Disney shall pay the City Disney’s share of the Katella Sewer Improvements Costs as follows:
5598767.1 32
3.1.6.1 Timing of Sewer Payment. Disney shall pay the Sewer Cost
Obligation on the later of (a) the first anniversary of the Effective Date, or (b) 60 days after the
City opens bids for the Katella Sewer Improvements project and notifies Disney in writing that
City staff will recommend that the City Council approve the contract for the Katella Sewer
Improvements project.
3.1.6.2 Project Timing. The City will take reasonable actions to complete
the design and engineering of the Katella Sewer Improvement project within two (2) years after
the Effective Date and will thereafter take reasonable actions to procure a contractor and complete
the Katella Sewer Improvement project within four (4) years after the Effective Date.
3.1.6.3 Fair Share Satisfaction. Disney’s timely payment of the Sewer Cost
Obligation shall constitute Disney’s fair share participation in the Katella Sewer Improvements
and shall relieve Disney from any additional and/or future payment towards the Katella Sewer
Improvements Project.
3.1.6.4 Mitigation Measures. Nothing in the foregoing provisions of this
Section 3.1.6 (including the Sewer Cost Obligation with respect to the Katella Sewer
Improvements) shall affect or limit Disney’s obligation to implement and fund FEIR Mitigation
Measures UTIL-8, UTIL-9, UTIL-10 and UTIL-11, which set forth additional sewer-related
measures required for specific types and locations of potential Project development, all as more
particularly specified therein.
5598767.1 33
3.1.7 Fire Operations Agreement and Improvements.
3.1.7.1 General. No later than thirty (30) calendar days after the Effective
Date, Disney and the City shall enter into a Fire Operations Agreement (“FOA”) providing for the
following, along with any other matters the Parties deem pertinent to such an agreement:
1) The details relating to Disney’s requirement to reimburse the City for the City’s provision of
fire services and associated facilities and equipment at The Disneyland Resort, including audit
and reconciliation procedures.
2) The process by which Disney and the City will determine the location and other specifics of
the fire substation required to be constructed pursuant to FEIR Mitigation Measure PS-14.
3) The process by which Disney and the City will identify and provide for additional fire service
needs during the Term (reimbursed by Disney when City-provided) as the Project is developed,
including thresholds for the assignment of additional fire personnel.
4) The process by which the City’s Fire Chief and the Disneyland Resort’s chief safety and
security officer (or their respective designees) will regularly meet and confer on matters of
staffing, scheduling and equipment, and will meet and confer before the additions of major
Theme Park attractions and/or material increases in building inventory on Disney Property to
discuss augmented fire department plan review and inspection staffing needs.
Following execution of the FOA, a FOA shall be in effect at all times during the Term. The Parties
agree that the FOA approved by the City on [Insert Date], 2024, satisfies the foregoing requirement
for the FOA agreement that must be executed within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date. Disney
and City agree that the FOA can be modified during the Term at the request of either Party and
upon mutual consent by the Parties. The City Manager or designee shall be authorized to sign FOA
amendments on the City’s behalf, or the City Manager may refer an FOA amendment to the City
Council for consideration and action.
3.1.7.2 FOA Amendments; Dispute Resolution. If either Party desires an
amendment or modification to a material term of the FOA, such Party shall notify the other Party
5598767.1 34
in writing. After receipt of such notice, the Parties shall meet and confer on said amendment or
modification and use best efforts to negotiate a mutually agreeable amendment or modification. If,
despite the Parties’ best efforts, the Parties are unable to reach agreement on an amendment or
modification to the FOA within six (6) months from the date of the notice, either Party may invoke
the resolution process outlined below by serving written notice on the other Party:
1) City’s Fire Chief and the Disneyland Resort’s chief safety and security officer shall engage
in a meet and confer process over a period of two (2) weeks and use best efforts to reach
agreement on the amendment or modification. If the Parties have not reached agreement
after this initial period, then the issue will be elevated to the Deputy City Manager and the
Disneyland Resort Senior Vice President of Operations.
2) The Deputy City Manager and the Disneyland Resort Senior Vice President of Operations
shall engage in a meet and confer process over a period of two (2) weeks and use best
efforts to reach agreement on the amendment or modification. If the Parties have not
reached agreement after this period, then the issue will be elevated to the City Manager
and the Disneyland Resort President.
3) The City Manager and the Disneyland Resort President shall engage in a meet and confer
process over a period of two (2) weeks and use best efforts to reach agreement on the
amendment or modification. If the Parties have not reached agreement after this period,
then each Party shall submit their best and final position in writing to the other Party. Either
Party may, but is not obligated to, accept the best and final offer from the other party.
During the pendency of the resolution process outlined above, the unmodified or
unamended terms of the FOA shall remain in full force and effect.
3.1.7.3 Fire Substation. Disney shall construct and maintain a Fire
Substation in the Theme Park District in accordance with the specified criteria and milestone
timing requirements in the FOA and FEIR Mitigation Measure PS-14. The Parties intend and agree
that, in addition to facilitating implementation of FEIR Mitigation Measure PS-14 relating to a
5598767.1 35
new fire substation, the FOA will constitute an alternative financing arrangement within the
meaning of FEIR Mitigation Measure PS-1 and will satisfy the requirements of FEIR Mitigation
Measure PS-7 relating to Fire Department operations and community risk reduction staff needs.
3.1.8 Police Operations Agreement and Improvements.
3.1.8.1 General. No later than thirty (30) calendar days after the Effective
Date, Disney and the City shall enter into a Police Operations Agreement (“POA”) providing for
the following, along with any other matters the Parties deem pertinent to such an agreement:
1) The details relating to Disney’s requirement to reimburse the City for the City’s provision
of police services and associated facilities and equipment at The Disneyland Resort, including
audit and reconciliation procedures;
2) The process by which Disney and the City will determine the location and other specifics
of the police substation required to be constructed pursuant to FEIR Mitigation Measure PS-
24, and the satellite police office required to be constructed pursuant to FEIR Mitigation
Measure PS-25;
3) The process by which Disney and the City will identify and provide for additional police
service needs during the Term (reimbursed by Disney when City-provided) as the Project is
developed, including thresholds for the assignment of additional officers; and
4) The process by which the City’s Police Chief and Disney’s chief safety and security officer
(or their respective designees) will regularly meet and confer on matters of staffing, scheduling
and equipment.
Following execution of the POA, a POA shall be in effect at all times during the Term. The Parties
agree that the POA approved on [Insert Date], 2024, satisfies the foregoing requirement for the
POA agreement that must be executed within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date. Disney and
5598767.1 36
City agree that the POA can be modified during the Term at the request of either Party and upon
mutual consent by the Parties. The City Manager or designee shall be authorized to sign POA
amendments on the City’s behalf, or the City Manager may refer a POA amendment to the City
Council for consideration and action.
3.1.8.2 POA Amendments; Dispute Resolution. If either Party desires an
amendment or modification to a material term of the POA, such Party shall notify the other Party
in writing. After receipt of such notice, the Parties shall meet and confer on said amendment or
modification and use best efforts to negotiate a mutually agreeable amendment or modification. If,
despite the Parties’ best efforts, the Parties are unable to reach agreement on an amendment or
modification to the POA within six (6) months from the date of the notice, either Party may invoke
the resolution process outlined below by serving written notice on the other Party:
1) City’s Police Chief and the Disneyland Resort’s chief safety and security officer shall
engage in a meet and confer process over a period of two (2) weeks and use best efforts to
reach agreement on the amendment or modification. If the Parties have not reached agreement
after this initial period, then the issue will be elevated to the Deputy City Manager and the
Disneyland Resort Senior Vice President of Operations.
2) The Deputy City Manager and the Disneyland Resort Senior Vice President of Operations
shall engage in a meet and confer process over a period of two (2) weeks and use best efforts
to reach agreement on the amendment or modification. If the Parties have not reached
agreement after this period, then the issue will be elevated to the City Manager and the
Disneyland Resort President.
3) The City Manager and the Disneyland Resort President shall engage in a meet and confer
process over a period of two (2) weeks and use best efforts to reach agreement on the
5598767.1 37
amendment or modification. If the Parties have not reached agreement after this period, then
each Party shall submit their best and final position in writing to the other Party. Either Party
may, but is not obligated to, accept the best and final offer from the other Party. During the
pendency of the resolution process outlined above, the unmodified or unamended terms of the
POA shall remain in full force and effect.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, in the determination of the City’s Police Chief, an amendment
or modification to the POA is necessary to address an immediate, exigent circumstance or an
immediate, significant threat to public safety and the Parties cannot agree on the substance of the
amendment or modification, then the Police Chief may bypass the preliminary steps of the dispute
resolution process outlined above and seek immediate review by the City Manager and the
Disneyland Resort President pursuant to subsection (3) above. The Police Chief may elect to
expend resources to address the immediate exigent circumstance or immediate, significant threat
to public safety during the pendency of the process outlined in subsection (2); in which case, any
final determination will be retroactive to the day that the City expended resources to address the
immediate exigent circumstance or immediate, significant threat to public safety.
3.1.8.3 Police Substation. Disney shall construct and maintain a Police
Substation in the Theme Park District and a Police Satellite Office in the Southeast District or the
Theme Park East Overlay in accordance with the specified criteria and milestone timing
requirements in the POA and FEIR Mitigation Measure PS-24 and Mitigation Measure PS-25. The
Parties intend and agree that, in addition to facilitating implementation of FEIR Mitigation
Measure PS-24 relating to a new police substation and Mitigation Measure PS-25 relating to a new
police satellite office, the POA will constitute an alternative financing arrangement within the
meaning of FEIR Mitigation Measure PS-16, and will satisfy the requirements of FEIR Mitigation
Measure PS-18 relating to police funding and equipment needs.
5598767.1 38
3.1.9 Current and Future Right-of-Way Abandonment and Vacation.
3.1.9.1 Consideration. As consideration for the City taking all required
legal actions: (1) to vacate the existing roadways identified as Magic Way from Walnut Avenue
to Disneyland Drive as shown on Exhibit M (the “Magic Way Road Segment”), a portion of
Clementine Street south of Katella Avenue as shown on Exhibit M (the “Clementine Stub Road
Segment”) and Hotel Way north of Disney Way as shown on Exhibit M (the “Hotel Way Road
Segment” and, together with the Magic Way Road Segment and the Clementine Stub Road
Segment, the “Existing Road Segments”) and (2) to abandon and remove from the City’s General
Plan Circulation Element the portions of Gene Autry Way between Harbor Boulevard and Haster
Street (the “Gene Autry Segment”) and Clementine Street between Katella Avenue and
Orangewood Avenue as shown on Exhibit N (collectively in this clause (2), the “Mapped Road
Segments”), Disney shall pay to the City Forty Million U.S. Dollars ($40,000,000) as provided in
Section 3.1.9.3. The Parties have agreed to this amount as the aggregate values (each, an
“Appraised Value”) of the vacation of the Existing Road Segments and for the abandonment and
removal of the Mapped Road Segments based on the appraisal prepared by CBRE Valuation and
Advisory Services with a Date of Value of July 5, 2023 (“2023 Appraisal”).
3.1.9.2 Process and Timing; Reservation of Easements.
(A) Existing Road Segments. Disney may apply for the vacation and
abandonment of the public rights-of-way in any or all Existing Road Segments at any time within
twenty (20) years after the Effective Date, and may request the abandonment of the individual
Existing Road Segments separately or at the same time in Disney’s sole discretion (each such fully
complete application, an “Abandonment Application”); provided, however, that Disney may not
submit an Abandonment Application for the Magic Way Road Segment until the public bonds
5598767.1 39
which are the subject of the Finance Agreement have been fully retired and/or have reached their
maturity date. The City shall, not later than 120 days after the submittal of an Abandonment
Application, prepare all necessary documents to effectuate the vacations and abandonments of the
applicable Existing Road Segment. Disney and the City shall cooperate regarding compliance
with and completion of any required statutory procedures and/or requirements necessary to
effectuate the abandonments. The Parties agree that City will first consider, on a schedule
determined by the City, and adopt a Resolution of Intention to Abandon or Vacate the Existing
Road Segments setting a date for a hearing on which the City Council will consider the final
version of the Resolution to Abandon or Vacate the Existing Road Segments and then the City will
consider the actual resolutions to abandon or vacate the Existing Road Segments. The resolution(s)
to abandon or vacate will include a condition pursuant to which the City will activate the vacation
or abandonment through recording the abandonment or vacation document only upon the notice
from Disney as referenced hereinabove. Additionally, the Parties agree that any street vacation
shall reserve for the City utility easement(s) for any utilities currently in place within the Existing
Road Segment being vacated by the City; provided, however, that with respect to the Magic Way
Road Segment only, Disney may, at its sole cost and upon approval by the City Manager or
designee, (i) relocate the existing sewer and water utility lines within the Magic Way Road
Segment to another location approved by the City Manager or designee (which may but need not
be within the Magic Way Road Segment), provided that Disney prepares and offers for dedication
to the City a new public utility easement for the relocated sewer and water lines in form acceptable
to the City Attorney, and (ii) maintain as a public pedestrian right-of-way/parkway the east-west
sidewalks currently located on the Magic Way Road Segment, either in their current form or in
another configuration consistent with the DRSP and approved by the City Manager or designee,
5598767.1 40
provided that Disney prepares and offers for dedication to the City a new public right-of-way
easement for the pedestrian parkway in form acceptable to the City Attorney, and provided further
that Disney agrees to be assessed for purposes of the Anaheim Resort Maintenance District
(“ARMD”) on the basis of the frontage along both sides of said pedestrian parkway, thus
maintaining the same frontage along the Magic Way Road Segment with respect to ARMD
assessment as existed before the City’s abandonment of the road right-of-way. With respect to
clause (ii), the Parties acknowledge that the DRSP requires a non-ticketed pedestrian access point
into The Disneyland Resort from Walnut Street at or near its current intersection with the Magic
Way Road Segment as the entry to an east-west pedestrian route, regardless of whether that access
and the associated east-west pedestrian route remains public or is privately maintained by Disney.
If Disney does not elect to have the pedestrian parkway along the Magic Way Road Segment (or
if, under the Applicable Rules, Disney proposes and City Manager-approves a substitute) remain
as a public right-of-way which is maintained by ARMD, then the consideration paid to the City
for the Magic Way Road Segment shall also include an amount reasonably determined to
compensate the City for removal of the Magic Way Road Segment from ARMD’s scope and the
loss of the associated assessment, based on actual linear footage and costs, which amount and
payment terms shall be determined by the City Manager/designee and Disney at the time and
thereafter the ARMD shall have no maintenance responsibility for the pedestrian parkway. The
Parties shall cooperate to provide the Orange County Tax Assessor with any documentation it may
require regarding said matters.
(B) Mapped Road Segments. Disney and the City shall cooperate and prepare
any exhibits necessary to request and/or receive Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA)
approval of an amendment to the Master Plan of Arterial Highways (MPAH) to reflect the removal
5598767.1 41
of the Mapped Road Segments, which the Parties agree OCTA considered and conditionally
approved on [Insert Date], 2024. The application also included the request for reclassification of
Disney Way between Anaheim Boulevard and Harbor Boulevard from a six-lane Major Arterial
to a four-lane Primary Arterial, which request OCTA also considered and conditionally approved
on [Insert Date], 2024. In the event that the approval granted by OCTA on [Insert Date], 2024
expires, Disney and the City shall further cooperate and prepare any exhibits necessary to request
and/or receive Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) approval of an amendment to the
Master Plan of Arterial Highways (MPAH) to reflect the removal of the Mapped Road Segments.
3.1.9.3 Consideration and Use of Proceeds.
(A) Existing Road Segments. The Appraised Value attributable to each
Existing Road Segment shall be paid by Disney to the City by the date which is five (5) business
days prior to the date on which the resolution approving the street abandonment or vacation is
recorded by the City as set forth in Section 3.1.9.2.
(B) Mapped Road Segments.
(1) Use of Funds for East-West Connector. The City shall use the funds
attributable to the Appraised Value paid by Disney for the abandonment and removal of the
Mapped Road Segments, including any associated increase paid pursuant to Section 3.1.9.4, for
transportation improvements, as determined by the City in its sole discretion. The Parties agree
that this payment and amount fulfills and is deemed full satisfaction of any obligation of Disney
to contribute financially to the construction and/or operation of any East-West Connector, i.e., an
enhanced transportation connection between the Anaheim Resort and the Anaheim Regional
Transportation Intermodal Center, that the City may determine to pursue, other than Disney’s
obligations under Section 3.1.12 below.
5598767.1 42
(2) Timing. Disney shall pay the Appraised Value attributable to the
Mapped Road Segments to the City at the earlier of: (i) prior to City issuance of the final Building
and Zoning Inspection for cumulative development representing at least 10,000 square feet in the
Southeast District and/or the Theme Park East Overlay, (ii) ninety (90) days after the City’s
Director of Public Works notifies Disney that such funds are required for a bona fide use, including
but not limited to matching funds for a grant, needed to execute an East-West Connector that the
City has elected to pursue or for traffic improvements, as determined by the City, that are necessary
to offset the loss of Mapped Road Segment, which notice may be given no earlier than June 1,
2027, and (iii) an earlier date of Disney’s choosing following the Effective Date and OCTA’s
approval of the MPAH amendment removing the Mapped Road Segments; provided, however that
Disney shall pay the Appraised Value attributable to the Mapped Road Segments to the City no
later than twenty (20) years after the Effective Date.
3.1.9.4 Future Update of Appraised Values. The Parties have agreed to the
values of the vacation of the Existing Road Segments and for the abandonment and removal of the
Mapped Road Segments based on the 2023 Appraisal. If the street vacations and planned
abandonments of the Existing Road Segments and Mapped Road Segments, respectively, are not
completed within ten years from the Effective Date or Disney has not yet made the payments
described in Section 3.1.9.1 at that time, then Disney shall cause the 2023 Appraisal to be updated
(“Updated Appraisal”) in consultation with and upon approval of the City, using appraisal
instructions jointly agreed to by the City and Disney. Thereafter, Disney shall pay the City the
greater of the amounts established in the 2023 Appraisal or the Updated Appraisal before the
applicable Existing Road Segments are vacated and/or before the abandonment of the Mapped
Road Segments becomes effective.
5598767.1 43
3.1.10 Assurances Regarding Potential City Pedestrian Bridges.
3.1.10.1 General. As noted in the FEIR, the City is currently reviewing the
feasibility of constructing additional pedestrian bridges in The Anaheim Resort (collectively,
“Potential City Pedestrian Bridges”), the details of which are not yet known sufficiently to allow
for the completion of “meaningful environmental assessment,” such that undertaking
environmental review at this time would be premature under State CEQA Guidelines section
15004. Accordingly, the Project does not bind or commit the City to any definite course of action
with regard to the Potential City Pedestrian Bridges and approval of the Project would not
constitute the approval of the Potential City Pedestrian Bridges. Any consideration by the City of
future actions allowing for the Potential City Pedestrian Bridges is contingent upon completion of
environmental review under CEQA, as permitted by State CEQA Guidelines section 15004(b).
Notwithstanding the preliminary stages of planning for the Potential City Pedestrian Bridges, the
City wishes to secure, and Disney wishes to provide, assurances regarding Disney’s future
cooperation with the City regarding any development of the Potential City Pedestrian Bridges that
the City may elect to pursue.
3.1.10.2 Cooperation re Bridge Landings. If during the Term the City elects
to pursue one or more of the Potential City Pedestrian Bridges within the areas identified as (1)
over Katella Avenue between Disneyland Drive and Harbor Boulevard (in the vicinity of the
Anaheim Convention Center), (2) over Harbor Boulevard near Convention Way, (3) over Katella
Avenue near Clementine Street, and (4) over Disney Way between Harbor Boulevard and
Clementine Street, the design of which would require dedication of Disney Property (e.g., for
footings, landing areas, pedestrian paths and/or encroachments), then the following actions will
occur:
(1) The City and Disney will meet and confer during the conceptual design
process for each Potential City Pedestrian Bridge the City elects to pursue to identify the specific
locations for each pedestrian bridge landing;
5598767.1 44
(2) If the Parties cannot mutually agree to the easement areas, the City shall
be authorized to make the final location decision provided that the selected locations (a) do not
require removal of existing structures, (b) do not interfere with access to or from a parking structure
in the DRSP Parking District East Parking Area or adjacent ARSP Parking Overlay, and (c) do not
require Disney to relocate existing underground utilities (unless the City agrees to relocate the
utilities at its sole expense).
(3) Disney shall, not later than ninety (90) days after the City provides
Disney with draft conceptual plans thereof, prepare and submit to the City for review and approval
draft easements and temporary construction easements (including draft legal descriptions and
related diagrams), all in form satisfactory to the City Attorney, conveying to the City easements to
construct, operate, and maintain said bridges; provided, however, that (i) the City shall submit such
notices and plans for no more than four Potential City Pedestrian Bridges in total, and (ii) the total
amount of Disney Property required to accommodate each bridge shall not exceed One Thousand
(1,000) square feet per bridge landing. Following City approval of the form of draft easements,
Disney shall promptly submit the final executed offers of easement dedication to the City, which
offers the City shall then promptly accept and record.
3.1.10.3 Cooperation re ATID Funding. In addition, Disney shall, in its
capacity as a member of the Transportation Committee of the Anaheim Tourism Improvement
District (ATID) or any successor agency serving the same or a similar purpose as ATID, vote in
favor of allocating ATID or successor agency funding for the construction of any Potential City
Pedestrian Bridge the City elects to pursue; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement
shall be construed as a requirement for Disney to vote to approve a higher ATID assessment than
the existing two percent 2%) of hotel room “rent” (as defined in Anaheim Municipal Code Section
2.12.005.140).
5598767.1 45
3.1.11 Bicycle Facilities. In 2017, subsequent to the approval of Development
Agreement No. 96-01, the City adopted a Bicycle Master Plan to close gaps in the existing bicycle
network, provide new bicycle connections between key points, and maximize implementation of
new bicycle lanes. As part of DisneylandForward, Disney shall design, install and dedicate to the
City the following bicycle facilities within The Anaheim Resort:
3.1.11.1 Walnut Street. The Bicycle Master Plan provides for a Class II
Bike Lane within the street right-of-way along Walnut Street between Ball Road and Katella
Avenue. As part of DisneylandForward, prior to the earlier of: (1) abandonment of Magic
Way and/or closure of the western end of Magic Way to public vehicular traffic; or (2) the
date which is ten (10) years after the Effective Date of the Development Agreement for the
DisneylandForward; or (3) the final Building and Zoning Inspection for cumulative
development of at least 10,000 square feet in the southwestern portion of the Theme Park
District south of Pixar Place and west of the Pixar Place Hotel parking structure, Disney
shall design, install and dedicate to the City (by right of way easement in form acceptable to
the City Attorney) a Class I Bike Path as more particularly described in the FEIR and the
DRSP, on the east side of Walnut Street between the northernmost point of the Disney
Property along Walnut Street to Katella Avenue. Additionally, Disney shall design, and the
City shall install at Disney’s expense the section of this Class I Bike Path extending from the
northernmost point of the Disney Property along Walnut Street, north to Ball Road. The City
agrees that this proposed Class I Bike Path along Walnut Street will improve the existing on-
street bicycle lane and satisfy the Bicycle Master Plan’s provisions for improvement thereof.
The conceptual design and the final construction plans will be subject to review and approval
by the City’s Public Works Director or designee.
5598767.1 46
3.1.11.2 Clementine Street/Disney Way. The Bicycle Master Plan provides
for a Class I Bike Path on Southern California Edison (SCE) and California Department of
Transportation (Caltrans) property along Disney Way between Anaheim Boulevard and Harbor
Boulevard. As part of DisneylandForward, Disney shall take the following actions in conjunction
with construction of a parking structure or transportation facility, whichever is developed earlier,
within the DRSP Parking District East Parking Area and/or the ARSP Parking Overlay north of
the DRSP Parking District East Parking Area:
(A) Disney shall design, install and dedicate to the City (by right of way easement in
form acceptable to the City Attorney) a Class I Bike Path as more particularly
described in the FEIR and the DRSP on the west side of Clementine Street north of
Disney Way between Alro Way and Disney Way.
(B) Disney shall design and install a Class I Bike Path as more particularly described
in the FEIR and the DRSP on the north side of Disney Way between Anaheim
Boulevard and Clementine Street. The portion of this Class I Bike Path between
Anaheim Boulevard and the I-5 southbound off-ramp is proposed on land owned
by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), and the portion of this
Class I Bike Path between the I-5 southbound off-ramp and Clementine Street is
proposed on land owned by SCE. The City has granted SCE a non-exclusive
electric utility franchise that facilitates and allows construction of bike paths within
SCE property in the City. Disney and the City agree to work with one another and
with Caltrans and SCE to obtain their approvals to install the Class I Bike Path
over Caltrans’s and SCE’s property, respectively. If Caltrans does not approve
installation of the Class I Bike Path over its property within the time needed (as
5598767.1 47
determined by Disney in its sole discretion) to allow Disney to incorporate said
installation in Disney’s construction of the parking structure and/or transportation
facility described above, then Disney may elect to pay to the City the estimated
cost (determined by the City Manager or designee) of installing the Class I Bike
Path over Caltrans’s property, and said payment, once received by the City, shall
be deemed full satisfaction of Disney’s obligations with respect to the Class I Bike
Path on Caltrans’s property.
3.1.12 East-West Connector Project Operation and Maintenance Funding by
ATID. During the Term, Disney, in its role and capacity as a voting member of ATID or any
successor agency serving the same or a similar purpose as ATID, agrees not to oppose use of ATID
(or successor agency) funds for operation and maintenance costs of any East-West Connector
Project that may be constructed by the City.
3.1.13 Staffing Reimbursement and Enhanced Services Agreement. Disney
anticipates a significant increase in building permit activity over the next several years associated
with DisneylandForward projects as well as on-going maintenance and improvement projects.
Disney and City agree: (1) that the significant increase in building permits associated with
DisneylandForward projects, as well as on-going maintenance and improvement projects, will
require substantial City staff time (from Planning, Building, Public Works, Public Utilities and
Fire Prevention) for review and processing of plans, inspections, and to ensure compliance with
mitigation measures, conditions of approval and the Applicable Rules including this Agreement,
and (2) Disney and City agree that the City’s expeditious and timely processing of plans, permits,
and inspections, etc., associated with DisneylandForward projects and on-going maintenance and
improvement projects are advantageous to Disney and City as the construction and operation of
said projects benefit the local economy and increase revenues to the City. To provide for the
expeditious and timely processing of plans, permits, and inspections, etc. associated with
5598767.1 48
DisneylandForward and on-going maintenance and improvement projects, Disney and the City
agree that they will enter into a Staffing Reimbursement and Enhanced Services Agreement. The
Parties agree that the Staffing Reimbursement and Enhanced Services Agreement shall be used for
City-provided supplemental staffing services (from Planning, Building, Public Works, Public
Utilities and Fire Prevention) related to DisneylandForward projects including new theme park
attractions, new hotels or vacation resort projects, commercial development, and parking
structures, as well as anticipated maintenance and improvement projects. The Parties further agree
the term and commitment for the Staffing Reimbursement and Enhanced Services Agreement shall
be at least five (5) years at all times (i.e. extended each year by an additional year), shall provide
for full cost-recovery for the supplemental staffing and enhanced services provided during the term
of the agreement, and shall state intended performance metrics. The Staffing Reimbursement and
Enhanced Services Agreement will also include a provision that requires Disney to make a
minimum annual payment for the supplemental staffing and enhanced services subject to a credit
against the following year minimum annual payment for City adopted development processing
fees, plan check fees, inspection fees and permit fees paid by Disney for the projects processed in
the prior year. The Staffing Reimbursement and Enhanced Services Agreement will include a
provision that City-adopted development processing fees, plan check fees, inspection fees and
permit fees shall be calculated and paid by Disney at a rate two (2) times the adopted fees. The
form of the Staffing Reimbursement and Enhanced Services Agreement shall be prepared by the
City in consultation with Disney’s Vice-President of Facility Management (or designee) and
counsel and shall subject to approval as to content by the City Manager and approval as to form
by the City Attorney. The City Manager is authorized to sign the Staffing Reimbursement and
Enhanced Services Agreement on behalf of the City.
3.1.14 Phasing of Remaining Development. The Parties acknowledge that
Disney cannot at this time predict specific phases of additional development, when such phases
will occur, or the rate at which additional phases of the Project will be developed. Such decisions
5598767.1 49
depend upon numerous factors which are not all within the control of Disney, such as market
orientation and demand, interest rates and competition. Because the California Supreme Court
held in Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo (1984) 37 Cal.3d 465, that the failure of the
parties therein to provide for the timing of development permitted a later adopted initiative to
restrict the timing of development and to control the parties’ agreement, it is the intent of Disney
and the City to hereby acknowledge and provide for the right of Disney to develop the remaining
portions of the Project in such order and at such rate and times as Disney deems appropriate within
the exercise of its sole and subjective business judgment. The City acknowledges that such a right
is consistent with the intent, purpose and understanding of the Parties to this Agreement. Except
as required in Section 3.1.2, Disney shall use its best efforts, in accordance with its own business
judgment and taking into consideration market conditions and other economic factors influencing
its business decision, to commence or to continue development, and to develop the remaining
portions of the Project in accordance with the provisions and conditions of this Agreement and
with the Applicable Rules and subject to the Reserved Powers.
3.1.15 Right(s)-of-Way Acquisition and Dedication. Pursuant to Development
Agreement No. 96-01, since October 1996, Disney has made numerous irrevocable offers to
dedicate Right(s)-of-Way which Disney or an Affiliate of Disney owned and which were required
to implement mitigation measures or conditions of approval required for The Disneyland Resort
Project. Disney agrees to make and to cause any Affiliate of Disney to make irrevocable offers to
dedicate, at no cost to the City, any Right(s)-of-Way that Disney or an Affiliate of Disney owns as
of the Effective Date, and which are required to implement any Mitigation Measures or Conditions
of Approval. In the event Disney has leased property as of the Effective Date which is required
for Right(s)-of-Way, Disney will make irrevocable offers to dedicate such Right(s)-of-Way for
implementation of Mitigation Measures or Conditions of Approval or, if not otherwise required by
the Mitigation Measures or Conditions of Approval, for the expansion of the Katella Smart Street
5598767.1 50
to an ultimate eight (8) lane capacity to the extent permitted by such leases and the buildout of
West Street/Disneyland Drive, Harbor Boulevard and Walnut Street to their General Plan
Circulation Element Ultimate width. The Right(s)-of-Way shall be dedicated by Disney to the
City when such Right(s)-of-Way are necessary for the construction of any applicable Mitigation
Measures or implementation of the required Conditions of Approval or otherwise when reasonably
requested by the City. To the extent the terms of any lease affecting any Right(s)-of-Way leased
by Disney prohibit a dedication by Disney of Right(s)-of-Way otherwise required to be dedicated
by Disney under this Section, Disney hereby waives any rights to compensation that Disney may
otherwise have in the event that the City or the Authority acquires any portion of the leasehold
interest through exercise of eminent domain. Any exercise of eminent domain by the City is
subject to the approval of a Resolution of Necessity, which action remains within the City’s sole
discretion. This Section 3.1.15 is not in limitation of any other dedication obligation Disney may
otherwise have under Applicable Rules or the Finance Agreement.
3.1.16 Employment. Pursuant to Development Agreement No. 96-01, Disney has
since October 1996 created and implemented an Anaheim jobs program to communicate notice of
Disney job opportunities to Anaheim residents and to recruit Anaheim residents. Disney agrees to
continue to implement an Anaheim jobs program for these same purposes throughout the Term.
This jobs program shall include a listing of all available jobs related to the Project posted on one
or more publicly accessible platforms including at least one digital/online platform, and a focused
recruitment program targeted to Anaheim residents. Throughout the Term, the City may submit
comments on the jobs program to Disney and Disney shall in good faith take into consideration
such comments on the jobs program and make such revisions to the program as are reasonably
appropriate in Disney’s discretion. The City and Disney recognize the jobs program will change
over the Term to address changes in workforce needs, communication methods, and technology,
among other things. However, as an example of the expected quality level of the jobs program,
5598767.1 51
Disney’s 2023 annual jobs program report submitted to the City pursuant to Development
Agreement No. 96-01 is attached hereto as Exhibit O.
3.1.17 Project Quality. The Project shall be comparable in quality to destination
resort projects developed, owned and/or licensed by Disney or The Walt Disney Company as of
the Effective Date.
3.1.18 Landscaping and Lighting District. Pursuant to Development Agreement
No. 96-01, since October 1996, Disney has cooperated in the formation and ongoing operation of
a Landscaping and Lighting District for The Anaheim Resort, which is called the Anaheim Resort
Maintenance District. Disney shall continue to cooperate in the ongoing operation of the Anaheim
Resort Maintenance District throughout the Term of this Agreement provided the burden imposed
on Disney by the Anaheim Resort Maintenance District is based upon the linear footage benefitted,
or such other method as agreed to by Disney and the City. Disney shall have the right to contest
the formation of any new Landscaping and Lighting District.
3.1.19 Sales Tax on Construction Materials. Disney and the City will work together in
good faith to ensure that contracts with general contractors for the DisneylandForward Project and
the Public Improvements include a clause which identifies the City as the point of sale for
purchases of materials, fixtures, machinery, equipment and supplies during the Construction
Period, as long as such provision causes no material increased costs (other than application of the
sales tax rate applicable to the City, to the extent the City’s rate exceeds that which might otherwise
be applicable) to Disney for such purposes. Purchases made directly by Disney for the
DisneylandForward Project shall be made for resale to enable Disney to ensure that the appropriate
sales tax is paid to the City. Nothing in this provision shall modify the obligations or procedures
set forth in the Finance Agreement.
3.1.20 Reimbursement for City Provided Traffic Control Services. Within sixty (60)
days of the Effective Date, Disney shall record a covenant against the Property in a form approved
by the City Attorney’s Office that requires Disney to reimburse the City for the hourly rates (fully
5598767.1 52
burdened) for costs associated with the use of Police Department employees including police
officers, police sergeants, full-time traffic controllers, part-time traffic controllers, traffic control
supervisor(s), traffic control assistants (TCA’s); and/or Public Works Traffic Management Center
staff that may be needed on-site before, during and after an event for traffic control on or related
to public streets. City shall provide all appropriate information to document City’s actual costs
3.2 Agreement and Assurances on the Part of the City. In consideration for Disney entering
into this Agreement, and as an inducement for Disney to obligate itself to carry out the covenants
and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in order to effectuate the premises, purposes and
intentions set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement, the City hereby agrees during the Term as
follows:
3.2.1 Entitlement to Develop.
3.2.1.1 Project Entitlement. Disney has the vested right to develop the
Project subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Applicable Rules and the
Reserved Powers.
3.2.1.2 Reserved.
3.2.1.3 Right to Rebuild or Replace. Disney’s vested rights under this
Agreement shall include, without limitation, the right to remodel, renovate, rehabilitate, rebuild or
replace the Project or any portion thereof including without limitation Disneyland and Disney
California Adventure throughout the applicable Term for any reason including without limitation,
in the event of damage, destruction or obsolescence of the Project or any portion thereof, subject
to the Applicable Rules and Reserved Powers. To the extent that all or any portion of the Project
is remodeled, renovated, rehabilitated, rebuilt or replaced, Disney may locate that portion of the
Project on any Disney Property subject to the requirements of the DRSP, the ARSP, the Applicable
Rules, and Reserved Powers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, such remodeled,
renovated, rehabilitated, rebuilt or replaced Project or portion thereof is not subject, under the
terms of this Agreement, to any limitation on Fees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Disney
5598767.1 53
reserves the right to protest or object to any Fees charged on any remodeled, renovated,
rehabilitated, rebuilt or replaced Project or portion thereof based upon its rights under the then
applicable law.
3.2.1.4 C-R Overlay/District Anaheim Garden Walk Overlay. Nothing in
this Agreement shall vest any rights in Disney pursuant to those specific provisions of the DRSP
relating to C-R Overlay (Section 18.114.100), Anaheim Garden Walk Overlay (Section
18.114.105), and Land Use and Site Development Standards - District A (Section 18.114.095) or
any other provision of the DRSP which relate to or implement these specific zone designations.
3.2.1.5 Encroachment Licenses for Bridges. In accordance with AMC
Chapter 12.02, the City Council hereby authorizes the City’s Public Works Director to issue
encroachment licenses for pedestrian bridges over Harbor Boulevard between Manchester Avenue
and Disney Way and pedestrian bridges or overpasses over Disneyland Drive between Magic Way
and Katella Avenue if those pedestrian bridges or overpasses are consistent with the Project
analyzed in the FEIR and comply with the requirements in the DRSP and the ARSP. The City’s
Public Works Director shall issue such encroachment licenses without the requirement for
payment of additional consideration by Disney. Any pedestrian bridges or overpasses constructed
by Disney pursuant to such encroachment licenses shall be maintained by Disney.
3.2.1.6 Pedestrian Wayfinding. The City will recommend to the Anaheim
Tourism Improvement District Transportation Advisory Board, or any successor agency serving
the same or a similar purpose as ATID, that such Board shall provide funding for a pedestrian
wayfinding program on Harbor Boulevard north of Katella Avenue and south of Manchester
Avenue in conjunction with the construction of any pedestrian bridges discussed in Section 3.2.1.5
above.
3.2.1.7 Abandonment and Elimination of Road Segments. The City will
process the Disney applications and matters relating to the Existing Road Segments described in
Section 3.1.9 and will assist in preparing certain documents as described in Section 3.1.9 relating
5598767.1 54
to the Mapped Road Segments, all within the timeframes specified in Section 3.1.9 and in any
event promptly.
3.2.2 Changes in Applicable Rules.
3.2.2.1 Nonapplication of Changes in Applicable Rules. Any change in, or
addition to, the Applicable Rules, including, without limitation, any change in any applicable
general or specific plan, zoning ordinance or building regulation adopted or becoming effective
after the Effective Date, including, without limitation, any such change by means of ordinance,
City Charter amendment, initiative, referendum, resolution, motion, policy, order or moratorium,
initiated or instituted for any reason whatsoever and adopted by the Mayor, City Council, Planning
Commission or City Agency, or by the electorate, as the case may be, which would, absent this
Agreement, otherwise be applicable to the Project and which would conflict with the Applicable
Rules or this Agreement, shall not be applied to the Project unless such changes represent an
exercise of the City’s Reserved Powers or are otherwise expressly allowed by this Agreement
including, but not limited to the right to impose a city-wide tax as set forth in Section 6.30.
3.2.2.2 Changes in Uniform Codes. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, construction of the Project shall comply with changes occurring from
time to time in the Uniform Building Code, Uniform Fire Code and other Uniform Codes pursuant
to the Reserved Powers.
3.2.2.3 Changes Mandated by Federal or State Law. This Agreement shall
not preclude the application to the Project of changes in, or additions to, the Applicable Rules,
including rules, regulations, ordinances and officially adopted plans and policies, to the extent that
such changes or additions are mandated to be applied to developments such as this Project by state
or federal laws or regulations, pursuant to the Reserved Powers. In the event state or federal laws
or regulations prevent or preclude compliance with one or more provisions of this Agreement,
such provisions shall be modified or suspended as may be necessary to comply with such state or
federal laws or regulations.
5598767.1 55
3.2.2.4 Special Taxes and Assessments. Except with regard to the
Landscaping and Lighting District for the Anaheim Resort, now known as the Anaheim Resort
Maintenance District, as provided for in Section 3.1.18, Disney shall have the right, to the extent
permitted by law, to protest, oppose and vote against any and all special taxes, assessments, levies,
charges and/or fees imposed with respect to any assessment districts, Mello-Roos or community
facilities districts, maintenance districts or other similar districts.
3.2.3 Environmental Equivalency. To the extent permitted by law, if Disney
cannot complete a Mitigation Measure, the City may specify another substituted measure which
(i) constitutes an environmental equivalent, as defined in Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP
No. 000387), and (ii) has a nexus to the Project. To the extent permitted by law, if Disney cannot
complete a Condition of Approval (excluding Mitigation Measures that are imposed as Conditions
of Approval) and the City elects not to require Disney to complete such Condition of Approval as
required and such applicable Condition of Approval is not required for the Project to operate,
Disney shall be allowed to complete the Project without performing such infeasible Condition of
Approval so long as Disney pays to the City the agreed-upon cost that Disney would have paid to
complete such Condition of Approval, unless the City specifies another condition of approval that
has a (i) has a nexus to the Project, and (ii) does not exceed the cost agreed to by the Parties for
the replaced Condition of Approval, in which case Disney shall complete or cause to be completed
such substituted Condition of Approval.
3.2.4 Agreed Changes and Other Reserved Powers. This Agreement shall not
preclude application to the Project of rules, regulations, ordinances and officially adopted plans
and policies in conflict with the Applicable Rules where such additional rules, regulations,
ordinances and officially adopted plans and policies (i) are mutually agreed to in writing by Disney
and the City in accordance with the requirements of Section 6.7 of this Agreement or (ii) result
from the Reserved Powers.
5598767.1 56
3.2.5 Subsequent Development Review. The City shall not require Disney to
obtain any approvals or permits for the development of the Project in accordance with this
Agreement other than those permits or approvals which are required by the Applicable Rules or
the Reserved Powers. However, any subsequent Discretionary Action initiated by Disney which
changes the uses, intensity, density, or building height of the Project, or decreases the lot area,
setbacks, yards or parking or other entitlements permitted on the Disney Property pursuant to the
DRSP and the ARSP or otherwise modifies the DRSP and the ARSP shall be subject to the rules,
regulations, ordinances and officially adopted plans and policies of the City then in effect.
3.2.6 Effective Development Standards. The City agrees that with respect to
the Project it is bound to permit development of the Project in accordance with the DRSP or the
ARSP including without limitation, the uses, intensity and density as provided for in the DRSP or
the ARSP, subject to the Applicable Rules, Reserved Powers and this Agreement. Moreover, the
City hereby agrees that it will not unreasonably withhold or unreasonably condition any
Discretionary Action which must be issued by the City in order for the Project to proceed, provided
that Disney reasonably and satisfactorily complies with all City-wide standard procedures and
policies of the City for processing any such Discretionary Action and pays any applicable
Processing Fees and Charges.
3.2.7 Moratoria. In the event an ordinance, resolution or other measure is
enacted, whether by action of the City, by initiative, or otherwise, which relates to the rate, amount,
timing, sequencing, or phasing of the development or construction of the Project on all or any part
of the Disney Property or the implementation or construction of the Mitigation Measures, City
agrees that such ordinance, resolution or other measure shall not apply to the Project, Disney
Property or this Agreement, unless such changes are adopted pursuant to the City’s exercise of its
Reserved Powers or other applicable provision of this Agreement.
3.2.8 Anaheim Resort Specific Plan. The City shall in good faith implement
the provisions of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan as it may be amended from time to time. In
5598767.1 57
the event the City considers a modification, adjustment, amendment or other change to the
Anaheim Resort Specific Plan, the City shall, in addition to any notices required by applicable law,
provide notice to Disney of the potential modification, adjustment, amendment or other change no
less than ten (10) days of receipt of application for such action and no less than ten (10) days prior
to adopting or approving such modification, adjustment, amendment or other change; provided,
however, failure to provide any such notice shall not invalidate such modification, adjustment,
amendment or change to the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan. Disney shall have no monetary
remedy for failure of City to implement the provisions of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan or
failure to provide any notice pursuant to this Section. Nothing in this Section shall limit the right
of the City to amend or modify the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan.
3.2.9 Standard City Services. The City agrees to provide generally applicable
standard municipal services to the Project upon the same terms as provided elsewhere in the
Anaheim Resort; provided, however, the City does not guarantee any particular level of municipal
service to Disney or the Disney Property. Disney and the City agree that the requirement for a
FOA and POA during the terms of this Agreement as set forth in Sections 3.1.7 and 3.1.8 and the
requirement for a Staffing Reimbursement and Enhanced Services Agreement as set forth in
Section 3.1.13 are in addition to the standard municipal services provided to the Project and will
remain Project obligations for the term of this Agreement.
3.2.10 Impact Fees. Pursuant to Development Agreement No. 96-01, since
October 1996, Disney has satisfied its obligation to pay Impact Fees on the Opening Day Project
and other development for The Disneyland Resort Project. The City acknowledges satisfaction of
the previously assessed Impact Fees listed on Exhibit G. This Agreement shall not limit any impact
fees, linkage fees, exaction, assessments or fair share charges or other similar fees or charges
imposed by other governmental entities and which the City is required to collect or assess pursuant
to applicable law (e.g., school district impact fees pursuant to Government Code Section 65995).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, all Project Elements in the Southeast
5598767.1 58
District of the DRSP, or the Theme Park Overlays and Parking Overlays of the ARSP, except to
the extent parking spaces allowed within the DRSP Parking District East Parking Area are
developed in the adjacent ARSP Parking Overlap, shall be subject to the Impact Fees in force from
time to time and are not restricted or limited in any way by this Agreement. The City finds that
certain improvements identified in the Mitigation Measures and/or the Conditions of Approval in
Development Agreement No. 96-01, which were implemented in connection with the Project were
contemplated by the justification studies and/or master plans supporting the Impact Fees or
otherwise qualify for credit and that the cost of such improvements exceeded the cost of the
applicable Impact Fees. City, therefore, agrees that the installation of improvements identified in
the Mitigation Measures, or the Conditions of Approval in Development Agreement No. 96-01
implemented in connection with the Project shall be deemed to satisfy applicable Impact Fees
which specifically relate to the type of improvements required by such Mitigation Measures or
otherwise required to be paid by Disney pursuant to the Conditions of Approval and Applicable
Rules in Development Agreement No. 96-01. In addition, the City shall cooperate with Disney at
no cost to the City in the implementation of transportation demand actions and measures from the
menu of actions and measures set forth in The Disneyland Resort Transportation Demand
Management Plan, as required by the FEIR. Subject to the Reserved Powers, the City agrees that
so long as Disney conforms to The Disneyland Resort Transportation Demand Management Plan
and the Mitigation Monitoring Program No. 387 with respect to the Project, the Project will not be
subject to any other City imposed transportation demand management measures during the Term
of this Agreement.
3.3 Shared Use Parking with Convention Center. Pursuant to Section 6.4 of the Finance
Agreement, the Parties have coordinated for years to achieve a shared use of parking facilities to
their mutual benefit. Without altering the provisions thereof, the Parties wish to secure a continued
5598767.1 59
shared parking arrangement throughout the Term of this Agreement, following the earlier
anticipated expiration of the Finance Agreement. Accordingly, the Parties agree as follows:
3.3.1 Shared Use Parking Facility. The Parties agree to shared use of a parking
facility (the “Shared Use Parking Facility”) which is the parking lot known as Disney’s Toy
Story Parking Lot, or such substitute location as approved by the Parties pursuant to Section
3.3.1.4, upon the following terms:
3.3.1.1 Disney Peak Periods. Due to the high volume of tourist traffic in
the Anaheim Resort during the following periods, all parking facilities on the Disney Property
including the Shared Use Parking Facility shall be reserved solely for the Disneyland Resort use:
(A) Certain national holidays, holiday-related weekdays, and related
weekend days designated by Disney (i.e., Christmas Day, New Year’s
Day, Labor Day, Memorial Day, President’s Day, Independence Day)
equaling approximately 20 days annually;
(B) The week between Christmas and New Year’s Day, equaling
approximately 4 days annually; and
(C) Certain other days throughout the year when Disney’s Theme Parks
experience peak parking requirements, equaling approximately 20 days
annually.
The specific days to be included in (a) through (c) above for any calendar year shall be as indicated
by Disney’s annual operating calendar, and Disney will annually, on or about January 31, of each
year, provide to the City a project for these specific days, over the succeeding twenty-four (24)
months, with the near-term twelve (12) months to be considered as firm dates, and the subsequent
twelve (12) months to be a best estimate with confirmation made during the quarterly meetings
described in Section 3.3.1.2. If parking spaces at the Shared Use Parking Facility become available
5598767.1 60
during peak periods, Disney will make spaces available to Convention Center guests for overflow
parking as agreed to by the Parties.
3.3.1.2 Annual Parking Forecast. City representatives of the Convention
Center and Disney representatives shall meet on a quarterly basis to determine the level of
available shared use parking spaces in the Shared Use Parking Facility (between a minimum of
1,000 and a maximum of 7,500) during times other than those set forth in Section 3.3.1.1. The
City may elect to increase the minimum spaces from 1,000 spaces to 2,500 spaces, in which case
the number of restricted days set forth in Section 3.3.1.1(c) shall increase to 45 days. The City
shall notify Disney of any anticipated event beyond the twenty-four (24)-month period which will
require shared use parking. Disney and the City will work in good faith to accommodate such
parking requirements if the request relates to a period other than a period described in Section
3.3.1.1.
3.3.1.3 Share of Gross Parking Revenue. Disney shall implement the
program described in Section 3.3.1.5 below enabling Disney to identify those parkers in the Shared
Use Parking Facility who are Convention Center guests. Seventy-five percent (75%) of gross
parking revenues generated from Convention Center guests’ use of the Shared Use Parking Facility
shall be paid by Disney to the City. Disney shall retain all other parking revenues generated from
the use of the Shared Use Parking Facility and all other parking facilities on the Disney Property
including the Public Parking Facilities.
3.3.1.4 Substitute Locations. The location of the shared use parking may
be modified from time to time with the Parties’ written consent. All provision with respect to
Share of Gross Parking Revenues shall apply.
3.3.1.5 Parking Identification. The entrance to the Shared Use Parking
Facility shall be located on Harbor Boulevard at Convention Way or at such other location as the
Parties may reasonably determine for a particular time period given the Anaheim Resort events
occurring therein and shall be used exclusively by Convention Center guests to the degree feasible.
5598767.1 61
The City will use its transportation changeable sign system located throughout the Anaheim Resort
to direct Convention Center guests to the Shared Use Parking Facility. All Convention Center
guests using this entrance will be sold a parking ticket specific to Convention Center parking at a
rate agreed to by Disney and the City and will be directed to park in an area designed for
Convention Center parking. The City reserves the right to use on-site City auditors for the
purposes of verifying parking procedures and counts. The City may mutually agree in writing to
change operational procedure to account for Convention Center parking.
3.4 Agreement and Assurance re: Height Requirements.
3.4.1 Background. The Parties acknowledge that (i) as part of the Project
approved pursuant to Development Agreement No. 96-01, specific height restrictions were
adopted to facilitate transformation of the Anaheim Resort, providing certainty regarding
development heights in the area in and around the Parties’ investments, (ii) these height restrictions
and requirements (collectively, the “Height Requirements”) are currently reflected in the Anaheim
Commercial Recreation Area Maximum Permitted Structural Height Map and codified in the
AMC, and (iii) Section 2.4 of the Finance Agreement also addressed these Height Requirements,
requiring the City to use its best efforts to enforce and maintain the Height Requirements
throughout the Finance Agreement term, establishing a process by which Disney would be notified
of any requested changes to the Height Requirements coming under the City’s consideration, and
establishing required mitigations if the City allowed the Height Requirements to be altered or go
unenforced to Disney’s detriment.
3.4.2 Project Changes to Height Requirements. To protect the viewsheds and
sense of space of Disney’s residential neighbors as the Project is developed in the future, Disney
has requested and the City is granting as part of the Project Approvals an amendment to the Height
Requirements to reduce maximum structure heights for those portions of Disney Property where
Disney will be able to develop new uses closer to residential neighborhoods, and to increase
building setbacks for those same areas in the ARSP and DRSP. The Parties acknowledge and
5598767.1 62
agree that the Finance Agreement, and specifically Sections 2.4 and 13.11 thereof, having been
intended to protect Disney and the Disney Properties from changes to the Height Requirements,
do not prohibit requests from Disney itself to alter the Height Requirements to benefit third parties
and limit Disney’s development such as this Project request, nor do the Parties believe the Finance
Agreement is implicated by the Height Requirements changes being approved. Disney hereby
affirms that the City is not required to put in place any mitigations or incur any costs as described
in Finance Agreement Section 2.4 as a consequence of the City’s approval of the Height
Requirements amendments Disney has requested as part of DisneylandForward, and Disney agrees
to waive any rights to said mitigations and costs in connection with the City’s approval thereof.
3.4.3 Notification of Future Proposed Height Requirements Changes. The
City agrees that the Height Requirements are critical to the success of The Disneyland Resort
Project, as stated in Ordinance 5379. The City acknowledges that the grant of any voluntary
exceptions or variances to the Height Requirements, voluntary modifications of or amendments to
the Height Requirements, or voluntary failures to enforce the Height Requirements might have a
significant quantifiable and identifiable adverse impact on the “Disney Theme Park District” and
“Southeast District” as defined in the Disneyland Resort Specific Plan as amended by
DisneylandForward, and on the Theme Park West Overlay and Theme Park East Overlay as
defined in the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan as amended by DisneylandForward. The City agrees
to use its best efforts to enforce the Height Requirements, as amended by DisneylandForward, in
effect during the Term. The City further agrees to implement the Height Requirements on City
property, including without limitation the Anaheim Convention Center unless otherwise consented
to in writing by Disney. The City further agrees to notify Disney in writing at least thirty (30) days
in advance of any consideration by City Council, the Planning Commission or other City agency
having jurisdiction over the same of any requested exceptions or variances to the Height
Requirements.
5598767.1 63
3.5 Changes to Disney Property. To the extent permitted by the Development Agreement
Act, Disney shall have the right to incorporate additional property located within the DRSP or the
ARSP to the existing Disney Property and subject such additional property to this Agreement,
provided that Disney shall (i) provide to the City notice pursuant to Section 6.14 of this Agreement
of the purchase or Lease of the additional property by Disney or an Affiliate of Disney, and (ii)
provide to the City evidence of Disney’s or an Affiliate of Disney’s ownership or leasehold interest
in such additional property. Disney acknowledges that Impact Fees will be imposed on any new
development by Disney on the added property to the extent not already satisfied by a third party.
3.6 Entitlements, Permits and Expediting Inspections. The City and Disney have agreed
on the following provisions to expedite development of the Project:
3.6.1 City Project Coordinator. If requested by Disney in order to facilitate the
expeditious completion of a major development project being developed pursuant to the Project,
the City will select a City Project Coordinator for the major development project. The City Project
Coordinator will be the primary City designee responsible for coordinating all processing of
Ministerial Permits and Approvals and all Discretionary Actions, if any, for the major development
project. The City Project Coordinator shall be an Assistant or Deputy City Manager level
individual. The City Project Coordinator shall be permitted to delegate day-to-day oversight to
one or more department directors or other identified assistants of the City Project Coordinator.
The City agrees to consult with Disney as to its proposed selection of the City Project Coordinator
and, in good faith, to take into consideration Disney’s comments regarding the selection, provided
that the selection of such City Project Coordinator shall be made by the City in its sole discretion.
The City will endeavor to maintain reasonable consistency with respect to the City Project
Coordinator assigned to the major development project through the completion of the major
development project subject to City employee performance criteria and operational requirements.
Disney agrees to assist in the efforts of the City Project Coordinator by promptly providing
information reasonably requested by the City or the City Project Coordinator, in order to clarify
5598767.1 64
an application or to otherwise facilitate processing of an application. Disney will pay to the City
the costs of the City Project Coordinator, including overhead costs. The City shall invoice Disney
monthly for the costs of the City Project Coordinator and Disney will pay such invoices within
thirty (30) days of receipt. Disney shall appoint a Disney Project Manager who shall serve as the
primary interface with the City Project Coordinator. Disney will endeavor to maintain reasonable
consistency with respect to the Disney Project Manager assigned to the Project through completion
of the major development project subject to Disney employee performance criteria and operational
requirements.
3.6.2 Processing Fees and Charges. Disney shall pay all Processing Fees and
Charges for Ministerial Permits and Approvals and Inspections. Processing Fees and Charges for
development of the Project shall be those Processing Fees and Charges in effect on a City-wide
basis from time to time in accordance with their terms. In the event that the magnitude of the
Project provides opportunities to realize economies of scale with respect to Processing Fees and
Charges, the City agrees to work in good faith with Disney to consider alternative fee
arrangements; provided, however, that such fee schedule shall at all times cover the costs of
services provided by the City including without limitation City overhead costs.
3.6.3 Timeframes and Staffing for Processing and Review. The City agrees
that expeditious processing of Ministerial Permits and Approvals, Inspections, Discretionary
Actions, if any, and any other approvals or actions required for the Project are critical to the
implementation of the Project. In recognition of the importance of timely processing and review
of Ministerial Permits and Approvals and Inspections, the City agrees to work with Disney to
establish guideline time limits for processing and reviewing such Ministerial Permits and
Approvals and Inspections as provided for in this Section.
3.6.3.1 Ministerial Permits and Approvals/Inspections. Standard
Guidelines; Additional Staffing for Expedited Processing. The City and Disney agree that all
requests for Ministerial Permits and Approvals shall be reviewed and/or completed by the City as
5598767.1 65
expeditiously as possible following the submittal of full and complete applications for such
Ministerial Permits and Approvals. The City further agrees to expeditiously respond to requests
for Inspections by Disney. Disney and the City shall establish guideline time limits for processing
Ministerial Permits and Approvals and Discretionary Actions and for response times for
Inspections based on use of standard City staffing and consultants. Such guideline time limits
shall serve as general objectives for the Parties; provided City shall have no monetary liability or
responsibility and shall not be subjected to any monetary damage claim (whether consequential,
incidental or otherwise) for any failure to meet such guideline time limits. If the City fails to
process Ministerial Permits and Approvals and Discretionary Actions and to respond to requests
for Inspections in accordance with such guideline time limits, such performance shall be referred
to the City Manager. The City Manager shall review such performance and shall establish a plan
in conjunction with the City Project Coordinator and the Disney Project Manager to address any
deficiencies. If Disney is not satisfied with the guideline time limits resulting from use of standard
City staffing and consultants or the subsequent ability of the City to meet those guideline time
limits, the City will, at Disney’s request and expense, hire plan check, inspection and other
personnel, or hire additional consultants for such actions, or allocate use of exclusively dedicated
staff time, such that the guideline time limits can be achieved. If Disney requests use of third-
party services or extraordinary staffing, Disney shall pay all costs incurred by City in connection
therewith, including overhead costs and all costs of selecting, employing, supervising and
reviewing any additional consultants. The City shall consult in good faith with Disney as to any
additional consultants to be hired pursuant to this Section provided that the City shall retain the
sole discretion as to selection of any such parties. In order to provide the City with advance notice
of upcoming applications for Ministerial Permits and Approvals, Disney shall supply to the City,
no later than January 1 of each year, a List of Actions describing the various Ministerial Permits
and Approvals which Disney reasonably anticipates will be requested during that year. The List
of Actions shall be updated quarterly, unless agreed to sooner by the Parties. Disney will also
5598767.1 66
include on its List of Actions its expected schedule for requested Inspections. To the extent (i)
any outside consultants or specially allocated staff performs work on the Project under this Section
and Disney reimburses the City for all costs of such consultants or staff as provided above, and (ii)
such work replaces work that would have otherwise been performed by standard City staff under
normal processing conditions, Disney shall be entitled to a credit for such consultant fees or special
staff reimbursement charges against the standard permit fees paid by Disney. Disney agrees that
the City may establish an office on the Disney Property and staff such office with plan check
personnel and inspection personnel to process Ministerial Permits and Approvals and to provide
Inspections for the Project. Disney shall reimburse the City for additional City costs incurred in
establishing and operating such office. All reimbursements to the City provided for by this
Agreement shall be paid by Disney to the City within thirty (30) days after Disney receives an
invoice identifying such reimbursable expenses.
3.6.3.2 Discretionary Actions and Other Permits. The City shall expedite
all requests by Disney for conditional use permits, tract maps, lot tie agreements, lot line
adjustments, encroachment permits, air right lots, street vacations and any other Discretionary
Actions requested for the Project, if any. Disney shall supply to the City, no later than January 1
of each year, a List of Actions describing the various Discretionary Actions which Disney
reasonably anticipates will be requested during that year with respect to the Project. The List of
Actions shall be updated quarterly unless agreed to sooner by the Parties. The List of Actions shall
be utilized to provide advance notice to the City of all upcoming applications for Discretionary
Actions. At Disney’s request, the City will retain consultants to assist the City in the review of
Discretionary Actions, subject to Disney’s agreement to reimburse the City’s expenses of retaining
the consultants.
3.6.4 Permit/Approval Dispute Resolution. The Parties agree to establish and
utilize the dispute resolution proceedings as set forth in this Section 3.6.4 to fairly and
5598767.1 67
expeditiously resolve disputes or questions related to interpretation of the Project Approvals and
Ministerial Permits and Approvals during the Term.
3.6.4.1 City Meet and Confer Process.
1) Parties Confer. In the event of a dispute or question of interpretation
regarding the Project Approvals or Ministerial Permits and Approvals that
cannot be resolved by the City Project Coordinator and the Disney Project
Manager, upon the request of either Party, the City Project Coordinator and
the Disney Project Manager shall meet and confer with the City Manager or
designee and the Disney Vice President of Facilities or Portfolio Project
Management Executive (either, a “Senior Disney Project Manager”),
together with legal counsel and the appropriate third party expert(s) as
provided for in Section 3.6.4.2. Such meeting shall occur within two (2)
working days following the request for such meeting.
2) Third Party Expert Involvement. If the Parties are unable to resolve
such dispute at such meeting, all materials involved in the issue in dispute
shall be immediately submitted for the third-party expert’s review and
written report. The third-party expert shall prepare a non-binding written
report and recommendation and submit such report and recommendation to
the City Manager and Senior Disney Project Manager within two (2)
additional working days. The City Manager and the Senior Disney Project
Manager shall review the report of the third-party expert and again confer
on resolving the dispute. Disney shall reimburse the City for invoices of
the foregoing third party expert(s) within 30 days of receiving an invoice
from the City. In the event that the City Manager and the Senior Disney
Project Manager are unable to resolve the dispute or question of
5598767.1 68
interpretation within two (2) additional working days following receipt of
such third-party expert(s) report, the Parties shall be entitled to such
remedies as provided by Section 6.5. Nothing herein expands the authority
of the City Manager, if any, to overrule determinations of the City Engineer,
Chief Building Inspector, Fire Chief or other City officials as provided by
applicable law or City Charter or Code.
3.6.4.2 Third Party Expert Selection. Disney and the City shall annually
mutually select six independent third party experts to assist in mediating disputes or questions of
interpretation, in the following areas of expertise:
(A) A Registered Professional Engineer to mediate any disputes
and questions of interpretation related to Uniform Building Codes and Inspections and
construction requirements related to development of the Project and Mitigation Measures.
(B) A professional planner, certified by the AICP to mediate any
disputes and questions of interpretation related to Project Approvals, Mitigation Measures,
Conditions of Approval or the Zoning Code of the AMC.
(C) An expert in fire and life safety code issues to mediate any
disputes and questions of interpretation related to fire code requirements contained in or adopted
pursuant to Title 16 of the AMC or to Mitigation Measures or Conditions of Approval related to
fire prevention and/or inspection.
(D) A licensed civil engineer with substantial experience in
public infrastructure construction to mediate any disputes and questions of interpretation related
to development and coordination of public improvements.
3.6.5 Environmental Review. The City has conducted extensive environmental review
of the Project and has certified the FEIR pursuant to the requirements of CEQA. The City intends
that Ministerial Permits and Approvals are not actions subject to requirements for further
5598767.1 69
environmental review pursuant to CEQA. Consistent with the provisions of Section 3.2.6, the City
further agrees to use its good faith efforts to consult with Disney regarding any Discretionary
Actions necessary to the Project to avoid any unnecessary or unreasonable delays due to
requirements for additional documentation pursuant to CEQA.
4. ANNUAL REVIEW.
4.1 Annual Review. During the Term of this Agreement, Disney shall initiate, and the City
shall conduct an Annual Review of Disney’s compliance with this Agreement. Such Annual
Review shall be limited in scope to determining good faith compliance with the provisions of this
Agreement as provided in the Development Agreement Act. The Annual Review shall be initiated
and conducted in accordance with the Procedures Resolution.
4.2 Termination Or Modification of Agreement. In the event the City Council determines
on the basis of substantial evidence that Disney has not complied in good faith with the terms of
this Agreement the City may terminate this Agreement in accordance with the Procedures
Resolution. Notwithstanding any provision of the Procedures Resolution, the City shall not have
any right to modify the Agreement without the consent of Disney. There shall be no modifications
of this Agreement unless the City Council acts pursuant to Government Code Sections 65867.5
and 65868.
4.3 Reimbursement Of Costs. Disney shall reimburse the City for its actual costs, reasonably
and necessarily incurred, to accomplish the required Annual Review in accordance with the
Procedures Resolution within thirty (30) days after receipt of invoice from the City.
5. DEFAULT PROVISIONS.
5.1 Default By Disney.
5.1.1 Default. In addition to the annual review process set forth in Section 4, in
the event Disney does not perform its obligations under this Agreement in a timely manner, the
City also shall have those rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement including without
limitation Section 6.5; provided that the City’s right to compel specific performance of the
5598767.1 70
obligations of Disney shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5.1.5 of this Agreement;
provided, further, the City shall have no right to monetary damages as a result of any failure by
Disney to complete construction of any Project Element or as a result of Disney’s failure to
complete, remove or secure improvements as required by Section 5.1.5 and the City seeks
reimbursement of costs incurred in completing, removing or securing such improvements).
Nothing in this Section 5.1.1 shall limit (i) the City’s right to terminate this Agreement in
accordance with Section 5.1.4 or (ii) those rights and remedies set forth in the Finance Agreement.
5.1.2 Notice Of Default. With respect to a default pursuant to this Agreement,
the City, through the Planning Director, shall submit to Disney, by registered or certified mail,
return receipt requested, a written notice of default in the manner prescribed in Section 6.14,
identifying with specificity those obligations of Disney which have not been performed. Upon
receipt of the notice of default, Disney shall promptly commence to cure the identified default(s)
at the earliest reasonable time after receipt of the notice of default and shall complete the cure of
such default(s) not later than one hundred and twenty (120) days after receipt of the notice of
default, or such longer period as is reasonably necessary to remedy such default(s), provided that
Disney shall continuously and diligently pursue such remedy at all times until such default(s) is
cured.
5.1.3 Failure To Cure Default Procedure. If after the cure period has elapsed,
the Planning Director finds and determines that Disney remains in default and that the City intends
to terminate or modify this Agreement, the Planning Director shall make a report to the Planning
Commission and then set a public hearing before the Commission in accordance with the notice
and hearing requirements of Section 7 of the Procedures Resolution and Government Code
Sections 65867 and 65868. If after public hearing, the Planning Commission finds and determines,
on the basis of substantial evidence, that Disney has not cured the default pursuant to this Section,
and that the City shall terminate or modify this Agreement, Disney shall be entitled to appeal that
finding and determination to the City Council in accordance with Section 6.3. In the event of a
5598767.1 71
finding and determination that all defaults are cured, there shall be no appeal by any person or
entity.
5.1.4 Termination Or Modification of Agreement. The City may terminate
this Agreement, after final determination in accordance with Section 6.3 of the City Council on
the basis of substantial evidence that Disney has not cured its default or, where no appeal is taken,
after the expiration of the appeal periods described in Section 6.3. Notwithstanding any provision
of the Procedures Resolution, the City shall not have any right to modify this Agreement without
the consent of Disney. There shall be no modifications of this Agreement unless the City Council
acts pursuant to Government Code Sections 65867.5 and 65868, irrespective of whether an appeal
is taken as provided in Section 6.3.
5.1.5 Specific Performance. Except as provided in this Section, the City shall
have no right to seek a remedy of specific performance with respect to the Project in the event of
an abandonment of the Project or with respect to any Project Element in the event of the
abandonment of any such Project Element. The City’s right to seek specific performance to
compel completion of the Project or applicable Project Element in the event of such abandonment
shall be specifically limited to (i) compelling Disney, at the election of the City in its sole
discretion, to complete or demolish any uncompleted improvements located on public property
initiated in connection with the Project with the choice of whether to demolish or complete such
improvements and the method of such demolition or completion of such improvements to be
selected by the City in its sole discretion, and, (ii) compelling Disney, at the election of Disney in
its sole discretion, to complete, demolish or make safe and secure any uncompleted improvements
located on Disney Property with the choice of whether to demolish, complete or secure such
improvements and the method of such demolition, completion and securing such improvements to
be selected by Disney in its sole discretion. Nothing in this Section 5.1.5 shall limit, and
notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, the City’s right to enforce all applicable
provisions of the Applicable Rules, Uniform Codes and Conditions of Approval for any portion of
5598767.1 72
the Project then or thereafter constructed (e.g. requiring Disney to build sewer laterals required
under Applicable Rules to serve a hotel actually completed). In addition, nothing in this Section
shall limit or restrict in any way the City’s monetary remedies as provided for pursuant to the
Finance Agreement.
5.2 Default By The City.
5.2.1 Default and Notice of Default. In the event the City does not accept,
process, or render a decision on necessary development permits, entitlements, or other land use or
building approvals for the Project as provided in this Agreement upon compliance with the
requirements therefor, or as otherwise agreed to by the Parties, or the City otherwise defaults under
the provisions of this Agreement, in addition to the dispute resolution process set forth in Section
3.6.4, Disney shall have only those rights and remedies provided in this Agreement, including
without limitation Section 6.5, which shall be limited to (i) compelling the specific performance
of the City’s obligations under this Agreement and (ii) those rights and remedies set forth in the
Finance Agreement. With respect to a default by the City pursuant to this Agreement, Disney shall
first submit to the City a written notice of default in the manner prescribed in Section 6.14 stating
with specificity those obligations of the City which have not been performed. Upon receipt of the
notice of default, the City shall promptly commence to cure the identified default(s) at the earliest
reasonable time after receipt of the notice of default and shall complete the cure of such default(s)
not later than one hundred and twenty (120) days after receipt of the notice of default, or such
longer period as is reasonably necessary to remedy such default(s), provided that the City shall
continuously and diligently pursue such remedy at all times until such default(s) is cured.
5.2.2 Specific Performance. It is acknowledged by the Parties that the City
would not have entered into this Agreement if it were to be liable in damages under or with respect
to this Agreement or the application thereof. In addition, the Parties agree that monetary damages
are not an adequate remedy for Disney if the City should be determined to be in default under this
Agreement. The Parties further agree that specific performance shall be Disney’s only remedy
5598767.1 73
under this Agreement, and Disney may not seek monetary damages in the event of a default by the
City under this Agreement. Disney covenants not to sue for or claim any monetary damages for
the breach by the City of any provision of this Agreement. Nothing in this Section shall limit or
restrict in any way Disney’s remedies as provided for pursuant to the Finance Agreement.
6. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
6.1 Effective Date. This Agreement shall be effective upon such date as it is attested by the
City Clerk of the City after approval by the City Council and execution by Disney and the Mayor
of the City of Anaheim.
6.2 Term.
6.2.1 Basic Term. The Term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective
Date and shall extend for a period of forty (40) years after the Effective Date. Following the
expiration of the forty-year Term, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and
effect. The Term shall be subject to extension pursuant to Section 6.4, provided that any such
extensions pursuant to Section 6.4 shall not individually or cumulatively exceed two (2) years. If
the Project is delayed by Litigation or a referendum challenging the Project, the Term shall be
extended for the time of the Litigation to the ultimate resolution of the Litigation or referendum
process from qualification of the referendum to the ultimate vote on the referendum.
6.2.2 RESERVED.
6.2.3 Early Full Termination of Agreement. The Agreement is terminable: (i)
by mutual written consent of the Parties; (ii) by either Party following an uncured default by the
other Party under this Agreement, subject to the procedures and limitations set forth in this
Agreement; or (iii) by the City upon the substantially complete abandonment and closure of all
Theme Parks on the Disney Property for a continuous period of two (2) years (except to the extent
such abandonment and closure is subject to Section 6.4). This Agreement may be terminated by
Disney or the City and be of no force and effect if the Orange County Transportation Authority
(OCTA) fails to approve an amendment to the OCTA Master Plan of Arterial Highways
5598767.1 74
(“MPAH”) prior to issuance of the first building permit for the Project allowing for (1) the removal
of planned extensions of Gene Autry Way between Harbor Boulevard and Haster Street and of
Clementine Street between Katella Avenue and Orangewood Avenue, which are planned through
the Southeast District of the DRSP and the adjacent Theme Park East Overlay in the ARSP; and
(2) the reclassification of Disney Way between Anaheim Boulevard and Harbor Boulevard from a
six-lane Major Arterial to a four lane Primary Arterial, as described in the FEIR. The City and
Disney agree that in the event the MPAH amendment is not approved the Parties will consult and
use reasonable efforts regarding a potential amendment to the Project prior to either Party
providing a notice of termination of the Agreement. The Agreement shall terminate and be of no
force and effect upon the occurrence of the entry of a final judgment or issuance of a final order,
after all appeals have been exhausted, directed to the City as a result of any lawsuit filed against
the City to set aside, withdraw or abrogate the approval of the City Council of this Agreement or
if termination occurs pursuant to the provisions of the Procedures Resolution and such termination
is so intended thereby.
6.2.4 Disneyland and Opening Day Project Continued Vesting Upon Partial
Termination. In the event of early termination as provided in Section 6.2.3, Disney shall have
the vested right to develop Disneyland and Disney California Adventure during the Term specified
in Development Agreement No. 96-01 subject to the terms and conditions of Development
Agreement No. 96-01. Further, Disney’s vested rights under this Section 6.2.4 shall include,
without limitation, the right to remodel, renovate, rehabilitate, rebuild or replace Disneyland and/or

Agreement No. 96-01.
6.3 Appeals To City Council. An appeal by Disney to the City Council from a finding and/or
determination of the Planning Director or Planning Commission must be filed, if at all, within
twenty (20) days after the delivery of notice in accordance with Section 6.14 of such finding and/or
determination to Disney. The City Council shall consider the appeal and act upon the finding
5598767.1 75
and/or determination of the Planning Director or Planning Commission within eighty (80) days
after such delivery of notice in accordance with Section 6.14, or within such additional period as
may be agreed upon by the Disney and the Council. The failure of the City Council to act shall
not be deemed to be an approval or a denial of the appeal; the matter shall remain pending until
final action by the City Council.
6.4 Enforced Delay; Extension of Time of Performance. In addition to specific provisions
of this Agreement, whenever a period of time, including a reasonable period of time, is designated
within which either Party hereto is required to do or complete any act, matter or thing, the time for
the doing or completion thereof shall be extended by a period of time equal to the number of days
during which such Party is prevented from, or is unreasonably interfered with, the doing or
completion of such act, matter or thing because of causes beyond the reasonable control of the
Party to be excused, including: war; insurrection; strikes; walk-outs; riots; epidemics; pandemics,
including COVID-19 induced restrictions; floods; earthquakes; fires; casualties; acts of God;
litigation and administrative proceedings against the Project (not including any administrative
proceedings contemplated by this Agreement in the normal course of affairs such as the Annual
Review); any initiative, measure, moratorium, referendum, statute, ordinance or other limitation
(whether relating to the rate, timing or sequencing of the development or construction of any or
any part of the Project) contemplated in Section 6.30; any approval required by the City (not
including any period of time normally expected for the processing of such approvals in the ordinary
course of affairs); restrictions imposed or mandated by other governmental entities; enactment of
conflicting state or federal laws or regulations; judicial decisions; the exercise of the City’s
Reserved Powers; or similar bases for excused performance which is not within the reasonable
control of the Party to be excused (financial inability excepted). This Section shall not be
applicable to any proceedings with respect to bankruptcy or receivership initiated by or on behalf
of Disney or, if not dismissed within ninety (90) days, by any third Parties against Disney. If
written notice of such delay is given to either Party within thirty (30) days of the commencement
5598767.1 76
of such delay, an extension of time for such cause will be granted in writing for the period of the
enforced delay, or longer as may be mutually agreed upon; in the event no such notice is given,
such claim of delay from that cause shall be deemed waived and no extension shall be granted on
that basis.
6.5 Legal Action. Subject to the limitation on remedies imposed by this Agreement, either
Party may institute legal action to cure, correct, or remedy any default, enforce any covenant or
agreement herein, enjoin any threatened or attempted violation, enforce by specific performance
the obligations and rights of the Parties hereto or seek declaratory relief with respect to its rights,
obligations or interpretations of this Agreement or pursue other remedies under applicable law.
6.6 Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the
laws of the State of California, and the venue for any legal actions brought by any Party with
respect to this Agreement shall be the County of Orange, State of California for state actions and

6.7 Amendments and Operating Memoranda. Either Party may propose an amendment to
this Agreement or an Operating Memorandum.
6.7.1 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended from time to time by
mutual consent in writing of the Parties to this Agreement in accordance with Government Code
Section 65868. Any amendment to this Agreement which relates to the Term, permitted uses,
density or intensity of use, height, or size of buildings, provisions for reservation and dedication
of land, conditions, restrictions, and requirements relating to subsequent Discretionary Action, or
any conditions or covenants relating to the use of the Disney Property shall require notice and
public hearing before the Parties may execute an amendment thereto. Except as expressly set forth
in an such amendment, an amendment to this Agreement will not alter, affect, impair, modify,
waive or otherwise impact any other rights, duties or obligations of either Party under this
Agreement.
5598767.1 77
6.7.2 Operating Memoranda. The provisions of this Agreement require a close degree
of cooperation and flexibility between the City and Disney. The development of the Project may
demonstrate that clarifications or modifications to this Agreement are appropriate with respect to
the details of performance of the City and Disney, including changes necessitated due to financing
considerations. If and when, from time to time during the Term of this Agreement, City and Disney
agree that such clarifications are necessary or appropriate, City and Disney shall effectuate such
clarifications through operating memoranda approved in writing by City and Disney (“Operating
Memoranda”), which, after execution, shall be attached as addenda and become a part hereof, and
may be further clarified from time to time as necessary with future approval by City and Disney.
No such Operating Memoranda shall constitute an amendment to this Agreement requiring public
notice or hearing and are considered ministerial clarifications. Operating Memoranda may be used
when the Operating Memoranda: (i) does not increase the density or intensity of the Project or
such increases do not generate new significant environmental impacts under CEQA; (ii) does not
change the permitted uses of the Project, unless such uses are consistent with the Project
Approvals; or (iii) does not reduce improvement and construction standards for the Project. The
City Manager shall have the authority and shall make the determination on behalf of City whether
a requested clarification may be effectuated pursuant to this Section 6.7.2 or whether the requested
clarification is of such a character to constitute an amendment hereof pursuant to this Section 6.7..
The City Manager shall, upon consultation with the City Attorney as to the form of the Operating
Memoranda, be authorized to execute any Operating Memoranda hereunder on behalf of City. The
City Manager may also refer any proposed Operating Memoranda to the City Council for
consideration and action to approve or deny any proposed Operating Memorandum.
6.8 Assignment. The Parties acknowledge and agree that one of the principal inducements to
the City in entering into this Agreement is the assurance that the Project will continue to bear the
“Disney” brand name and that the Project will be developed in accordance with the quality
5598767.1 78
standards set forth in this Agreement. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that the City is
relying upon the existing public image, resources and experience of Disney and its affiliated
companies to help assure that the City will receive the anticipated benefits of the Project as
expressed in the Statement of Overriding Considerations. Except as provided in this Section 6.8,
Disney shall not be entitled to transfer any of the Disney property together with its rights or
obligations hereunder without the written consent of the City, which consent may be granted or
withheld by the City in its sole discretion.
The City agrees that it will not unreasonably withhold consent to any proposed
transfer by Disney of any Disney Property or portion thereof subject to this Agreement, together
with the rights granted to and obligations imposed upon such Disney Property pursuant to this
Agreement, to a proposed transferee for Hotel use provided that the proposed transferee has a net
worth of at least $40,000,000 at the time of the proposed transfer and the proposed transferee has
at least ten (10) years of experience in operating first class hotels (i.e. comparable to Hilton,
Sheraton, Marriott, Doubletree).
The City further agrees that Disney may transfer the Disney Property or applicable
portion thereof or applicable Project Element therein subject to this Agreement, together with the
rights granted to and obligations imposed upon such Disney Property or Project Element pursuant
to this Agreement, without the consent of the City in accordance with the following:
(A) transfers to any corporation, joint venture, limited liability company,
partnership, limited partnership, trust, association or other entity where
Disney or The Walt Disney Company, retains control of such corporation,
joint venture, limited liability company, partnership, limited partnership,
trust, association, or other entity.
(B) any business combination or merger whereby The Walt Disney Company is
merged into or combined with another corporation, joint venture, limited
5598767.1 79
liability company, partnership, limited partnership, trust, association or
other entity;
(C) transfers of the Disney Property (including any portion thereof or any
Project Element) which meet the requirements of both (i) and (ii) below;
(i) transfer to any entity in connection with which Disney or an Affiliate of
Disney leases the transferred Disney Property or Project Element back from
such entity for operation by Disney for the Term, or transfers in connection
with which Disney or an Affiliate of Disney enters into an agreement to
manage or operate the transferred Disney Property or Project Element for
the Term, or transfers of a Theme Park in connection with which Disney or
an Affiliate of Disney licenses use of the “Disney” brand name and licensed
products for the Theme Park for the Term (e.g. Tokyo Disneyland) and
(ii) the use of the transferred Disney Property or Project Element is
“Disney” branded during the Term and generally marketed under the
Disney trademark, tradename or logo; provided, any such transfer described
in this subsection (c) shall be permitted without prior City consent only so
long as such Disney Property in fact continues to be “Disney” branded as
required above;
(D) transfers pursuant to a mortgage, or other financing arrangement with any
institutional lender (as hereinafter defined) who acquires Disney’s interest
in this Agreement pursuant to the exercise of its remedies under such
financing arrangement, including without limitation a foreclosure sale, a
trustee’s sale or a judgment of foreclosure and sale through a deed or
assignment in lieu of foreclosure or through settlement of any pending
foreclosure action; notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the
contrary, no institutional lender shall acquire any of Disney’s rights under
5598767.1 80
this Agreement with respect to Theme Parks; “Institutional lender” for the
purposes of this subsection (d) shall include national and state chartered
banks, savings and loans and thrifts, and other similar institutional entities,
including without limitation insurance companies, pension funds,
institutional funds, investment banks, real estate investment trusts, trusts,
and trust companies.
Further, Disney shall be permitted to transfer without the consent of the City
(i) individual vacation ownership resort units or interval ownership transfers (provided the transfer
will not result in a loss of transient occupancy tax revenues to the City) and (ii) leases, licenses,
management agreements, operating contracts and other similar agreements executed in the
ordinary course of business by Disney; provided such transfers pursuant to (i) and (ii) above shall
not include any rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement.
For the purposes of this Section, “control” shall be defined as follows:
(i) for transfers of Disney Property representing Theme Parks or any portion
thereof, “control” of any corporation shall be deemed to be vested in the
person or persons owning more than fifty percent (50%) of such corporation
and “control” of a partnership, limited partnership, limited liability
company, joint venture, trust, association or other entity shall be deemed to
be vested in the person or persons owning more than fifty percent (50%) of
the total interests in such partnership, joint venture, limited partnership,
limited liability company, trust, association or other entity; and
(ii) for transfers of all other Disney Property, “control” of any corporation shall
be deemed to be vested in the person or persons owning more than fifty
percent (50%) of such corporation or owning more than fifty percent (50%)
of the voting power of such corporation or, with prior written notice to the
City, possessing the actual and on-going ability to manage and control the
5598767.1 81
day-to-day and overall operations of the controlled entity, and “control” of
a partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company, joint venture,
trust, association or other entity shall be deemed to be vested in the person
or persons owning more than fifty percent (50%) of the total interests in
such partnership, joint venture, limited partnership, limited liability
company, trust, association or other entity, or, with prior written notice to
the City, possessing the actual and on-going ability to manage and control
the day-to-day and overall operations of the controlled entity.
For purposes of this Section, the term “transfer” means (i) any direct or indirect
conveyance, sale, assignment, lease, sublease, license, concession, franchise, gift, hypothecation,
mortgage, pledge, encumbrance, or the like, to any person or entity or, (ii) with respect to a
controlled entity to whom Disney Property subject to this Agreement has been transferred, the
cessation by Disney or The Walt Disney Company of control of the controlled entity.
Because this Agreement is intended to represent an integrated plan, the failure of
any successor in interest to perform the obligations assigned to it may result, at the City’s option,
in a declaration that the Agreement has been breached and an election to terminate this Agreement
in its entirety as provided for in Section 5.1, provided that the City has given notice of such default
and opportunity to Disney to cure as set forth in Section 5.1 of this Agreement.
At least thirty (30) days prior to any transfer which requires the City’s consent, or
which involves a Theme Park, Disney shall provide written notice to the City describing the nature
of the transfer, the identity of the proposed transferee, and the asset proposed to be transferred. In
the event of any permitted transfer by Disney, all references in this Agreement to Disney shall
thereafter also be deemed to refer to such successor or assign with respect to the interest transferred
and, with respect to such transferred interest, the transferee thereof shall execute an express written
assumption of the obligations applicable to such interest.
5598767.1 82
6.9 Covenants. The provisions of this Agreement shall constitute covenants which shall run
with the land comprising the Disney Property for the benefit thereof and as a burden thereon, and,
subject to the restrictions on transfer as set forth in Section 6.8, the burdens and benefits hereof
shall bind and inure to the benefit of all assignees, transferees, and successors to the Parties hereto.
6.10 Implementation.
6.10.1 Processing. Upon satisfactory completion by Disney of all required
applications and payment of appropriate Processing Fees and Charges, including the fee for
processing this Agreement, the City and Disney shall commence and diligently process all required
steps necessary for the implementation of this Agreement and development of the Project in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Disney shall, in a timely manner, provide the City
with all documents, plans and other information necessary for the City to carry out its processing
obligations.
6.10.2 Other Governmental Permits. Disney shall apply in a timely manner for
such other permits and approvals as may be required from other governmental or quasi-
governmental agencies having jurisdiction over the Project as may be required for the development
of, or provision of services to, the Project. The City shall cooperate with Disney in its endeavors
to obtain such permits and approvals and shall, from time to time at the request of Disney, attempt
with due diligence and in good faith to enter into binding agreements with any such entity to ensure
the availability of such permits and approvals, or services, provided such agreements are
reasonable and not detrimental to the City. These agreements may include, but are not limited to,
joint powers agreements under the provisions of the Joint Exercise of Powers Act (Government
Code Section 6500, et seq.) or the provisions of other laws to create legally binding, enforceable
agreements between such parties. To the extent allowed by law, Disney shall be a party to any
such agreement, or a third-party beneficiary thereof, entitled to enforce for its benefit on behalf of
the City, or in its own name, the rights of the City or Disney thereunder or the duties and obligations
of the parties thereto. Disney shall reimburse the City for all costs and expenses incurred in
5598767.1 83
connection with seeking and entering into any such agreement provided that Disney has requested
it. Disney shall defend the City in any challenge by any person or entity to any such agreement
and shall reimburse the City for any costs and expenses incurred by the City in enforcing any such
agreement. Any fees, assessments, or other amounts payable by the City thereunder shall be borne
by Disney, except where Disney has notified the City in writing, prior to the City entering into
such agreement, that it does not desire for the City to execute such agreement.
6.11 Relationship Of the Parties. It is understood and agreed by the Parties hereto that the
contractual relationship created between the Parties hereunder is that Disney is an independent
party and not an agent of the City. Further, the City and Disney hereby renounce the existence of
any form of joint venture or partnership between them and agree that nothing herein or in any
document executed in connection herewith shall be construed as making the City and Disney joint
venturers or partners.
6.12 Cooperation in Event of Litigation, Hold Harmless and Insurance.
6.12.1 Cooperation In The Event Of Litigation. In the event of any Litigation
instituted by a third party or other governmental entity or official, the Parties hereby agree to
affirmatively cooperate in defending said action.
6.12.1.1 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event any Litigation should arise, the
City shall notify Disney in writing of such Litigation not later than five (5) business days after
service upon City and shall transmit to Disney any and all documents (including, without
limitation, correspondence and pleadings) received by, or served upon, City in connection with
such Litigation. Upon receipt of such notice from the City, Disney shall retain and appoint (in
consultation with the City, but with final selection made by Disney) legal counsel (“Counsel” for
purposes of this Section 6.12.1) with respect to the Litigation. The Parties acknowledge that
Counsel will appear and represent Disney in connection with such Litigation and such Counsel
shall, at the request of the City Attorney, cooperate with the City Attorney, shall prepare drafts,
for review by the City Attorney, of all pleadings, motions and other Litigation-related documents,
5598767.1 84
and shall coordinate legal strategy and otherwise cooperate with City in connection with the
Litigation, all at Disney’s cost and expense. Disney shall also pay all filing fees, court costs and
similar out-of-pocket expenses required for the City to defend the Litigation. The City Attorney
or his designee shall appear on behalf of the City in any such Litigation and shall at all times retain
final authority and control over all documents to be filed on the City’s behalf and all actions to be
taken by the City with respect to Litigation. Disney shall not be responsible for paying (a) fees or
costs of any attorneys hired by the City in connection with such Litigation or (b) any fees, costs,
Attorneys’ Fees or expenses resulting from unreasonable actions taken by the City against the
written advice of Counsel. The City shall cooperate with Counsel’s defense of the Litigation and
shall make its records (other than documents privileged from disclosure) and personnel available
to Counsel as may be reasonably requested by Counsel in connection with the Litigation.
6.12.1.2 Reimbursement of Attorneys’ Fees. Within thirty (30) days
after delivery of a final judgment awarding Attorneys’ Fees or costs to a Plaintiff or upon execution
of a written settlement agreement by and between the City and a Plaintiff which requires the City
to pay Attorneys’ Fees or costs to a Plaintiff, Disney shall pay such Attorneys’ Fees and costs to
the Plaintiff as required (except as provided in the penultimate sentence of Section 6.12.1.1). If
the City settles any Litigation, in whole or in part, without Disney’s prior written approval, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, the City shall have no rights whatsoever under this
Agreement for reimbursement of any Attorneys’ Fees incurred in connection with such Litigation.
6.12.1.3 Indemnification. Disney hereby agrees to and shall indemnify,
save and hold the City and its elected and appointed representatives, boards, commissions, officers,
agents and employees (collectively, “the City” in this Section 6.12.1.3) harmless from any and all
claims, costs, and liability for damages to the extent they result from any Litigation, excluding any
legal challenges to the extent based on alleged inadequacies in the General Plan and legal
challenges to the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan, Ordinance No. 5379 (Height Ordinance), the
Finance Agreement and/or any other rules, regulations, ordinances, plans or policies of general
5598767.1 85
application Citywide. Disney shall cooperate in the defense of Litigation pursuant to this Section
6.12.1 in accordance with Section 6.12.1.1. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section
6.12.1, the City’s sole rights to Attorneys’ Fees for defense of Litigation are as set forth in Sections
6.12.1.1 and 6.12.1.2. Furthermore, the City shall be deemed to have waived its rights under this
Section 6.12.1.3 if the City settles any Litigation, in whole or in part, without Disney’s prior written
approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding any provision to
the contrary, if the City is indemnified with respect to Litigation pursuant to this Section 6.12.1.3,
Disney, as the indemnifying party, shall at all times retain final authority and control over all
documents to be filed in such Litigation and all actions to be taken by the City with respect to such
Litigation subject to the City’s review and approval thereof which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to mean that Disney shall hold
the City harmless and/or defend it to the extent that such claims, costs or liability arise from, or
are alleged to have arisen from, the sole negligent acts, the sole negligent failure to act, or willful
misconduct on the part of the City.
6.12.1.4 Joint Defense. It is understood and agreed that the Counsel
shall represent Disney and that the City shall not be considered the client of Counsel, nor Disney
the client of the City Attorney. Both Disney and the City understand that the requirements of
cooperation contained in this Agreement apply only as to matters reasonably necessary for the
accomplishment of the defense of the Litigation and shared information is intended to be, and must
be, kept confidential.
6.12.2 Hold Harmless.
6.12.2.1 Disney Hold Harmless. Disney hereby agrees to and shall
indemnify, save, hold harmless and defend the City, and its elected and appointed representatives,
boards, commissions, officers, agents, and employees (collectively, “the City” in this Section),
from any and all claims, costs, and liability for any damages, personal injury or death which may
arise, directly or indirectly, from Disney or Disney’s contractors, subcontractors, agents, or
5598767.1 86
employees’ operations, acts or omissions in connection with the construction and operation of the
Project and from construction, operation and maintenance of the pedestrian bridges for which
Encroachment Licenses are issued to Disney, whether such operations, acts or omissions be by
Disney or any of Disney’s contractors, subcontractors, or by any one or more persons directly or
indirectly employed by, or acting as agent for Disney or any of Disney’s contractors or
subcontractors. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to mean that Disney shall hold the City
harmless and/or defend it to the extent that such claims, costs or liability arise from, or are alleged
to have arisen from, the negligent acts, or negligent failure to act, on the part of the City. City
agrees that it shall fully cooperate with Disney in the defense of any matter in which Disney is
defending and/or holding the City harmless.
6.12.2.2 City Hold Harmless. City hereby agrees to and shall indemnify,
save, hold harmless and defend Disney, and its representatives, boards, officers, agents, and
employees (collectively, “Disney” in this Section), from any and all claims, costs, and liability for
any damages, personal injury or death which may arise, directly or indirectly, from City or City’s
contractors, subcontractors, agents, or employees’ operations, acts or omissions in connection
with: (i) the City’s maintenance of a Class I Bike Path, as more particularly described in the FEIR
and the DRSP, on the east side of Walnut Street between the northernmost point of the Disney
Property along Walnut Street to Katella Avenue (referenced in Section 3.1.11.1), (ii) the City’s
installation and maintenance of the section of Class I Bike Path extending from the northernmost
point of the Disney Property along Walnut Street, north to Ball Road (referenced in Section
3.1.11.1), (iii) the City’s maintenance of a Class I Bike Path, as more particularly described in the
FEIR and the DRSP, on the west side of Clementine Street north of Disney Way between Alro
Way and Disney Way (referenced in Section 3.1.11.2(A)), (iv) the City’s maintenance of a Class
I Bike Path, as more particularly described in the FEIR and the DRSP, on the north side of Disney
Way between Anaheim Boulevard and Clementine Street (referenced in Section 3.1.11.2(B)), (v)
the City’s maintenance of the portion of the Class I Bike Path between Anaheim Boulevard and
5598767.1 87
the I-5 southbound off-ramp and the portion of the Class I Bike Path between the I-5 southbound
off-ramp and Clementine Street (referenced in Section 3.1.11.2(B)), (vi) the City’s construction,
operation, and maintenance of Potential City Pedestrian Bridges (referenced in Section 3.1.10.1),
and (vii) the City’s construction, operation, and maintenance of the Katella Sewer Improvements
(referenced in Section 3.1.6) whether such operations, acts or omissions be by City or any of City’s
contractors, subcontractors, or by any one or more persons directly or indirectly employed by, or
acting as agent for City or any of City’s contractors or subcontractors. Nothing in this Section
shall be construed to mean that City shall hold Disney harmless and/or defend it to the extent that
such claims, costs or liability arise from, or are alleged to have arisen from, the negligent acts, or
negligent failure to act, on the part of Disney. Disney agrees that it shall fully cooperate with City
in the defense of any matter in which City is defending and/or holding Disney harmless.
6.12.3 Insurance. Without limiting its obligation to hold the City harmless,
Disney shall provide and maintain at its own expense, at all times during the forty (40) year Term
the following program of insurance concerning its operations hereunder. The insurance shall be
placed (i) with California-admitted insurers that carry Best’s or equivalent rating equal to the lesser
of A+X as to property insurance and an A-X rating as to all other insurance or (ii) with the same
insurers which are then insuring the Disneyland Theme Park, provided, however, that in no event
shall the insurer have a Best’s or equivalent rating of less than B+X. The program of insurance
provided shall specifically identify this Agreement and shall contain express conditions that the
City is to be given written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to any modification or termination
of coverage. Such insurance shall be primary to and not contributing with any insurance or self-
insurance maintained by the City, shall name the City as an additional insured, shall be written on
a comprehensive or commercial general liability insurance form, and shall include coverage for,
but not limited to, Completed Operations, Premises/Project Site Operations, Products/Completed
Operations, Contractual, Independent Contractors Broad Form Property Damage, and Personal
Injury, with a per occurrence limit of not less than fifty million ($50,000,000) written on an
5598767.1 88
occurrence basis. From time to time, but not more often than once every two (2) years, Disney
shall increase the coverage limits of the insurance required under this Section if so directed by the
City after a determination by the City that such an increase is justified using customary and
reasonable risk management methods and principles. So long as Disney’s financial condition does
not materially and adversely deteriorate such that it would impair Disney’s ability to provide the
requisite levels of insurance, upon written disclosure to City, Disney shall have the right to self-
insure all coverages provided in this Section 6.12.3, provided that in the event of self-insurance
the City shall have all remedies and presumptions provided under law for a named additional
insured as if Disney acting in its capacity as self-insurer were an insurance company. For any
construction work which Disney performs on behalf of the City, Disney shall secure and maintain
such insurance as would typically be required of a construction contractor, including, but not
limited to, builder’s risk insurance in the full amount of the subject improvements, workers’
compensation insurance as required by law, and employer’s liability coverage in an amount not
less than ten million dollars ($10,000,000) per accident/injury/illness. The details of such
construction-related insurance coverage shall be set forth in the separate agreements governing
such work.
6.12.4 Continuing Obligations. This Section 6.12.4 shall survive termination of this
Agreement.
6.13 Tentative Maps. Pursuant to California Government Code Section 66452.6(a), the
duration of tentative maps filed subsequent to the Effective Date for the Disney Property in
connection with the Project shall automatically be extended for the Term of this Agreement.
6.14 Notices. Any notice or communication required hereunder between the City or Disney
must be in writing and may be given personally by reputable overnight courier. A notice shall be
deemed to have been delivered when received by the Party to whom it is addressed. Any Party
hereto may at any time, by giving ten (10) days’ written notice to the other Party hereto, designate
any other address in substitution of the address, or any additional address, to which such notice or

of any legal action seeking specific performance, declaratory relief or injunctive relief, to set court

6.23 Requests for Payment. With respect to any requests by the City for payment of amounts
due under this Agreement, Disney retains its rights to review any invoices or requests for payments
submitted by the City pursuant to this Agreement. Disney shall review and reasonably approve

6.24 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents, agreements and exhibits
referenced herein or attached hereto set forth and contain the entire understandings and agreements
of the Parties and there are no oral or written representations, understandings or ancillary
covenants, undertakings or agreements which are not contained or expressly referred to herein and
no testimony or evidence of any such representations, understandings, or covenants shall be
admissible in any proceedings of any kind or nature to interpret or determine the provisions or
conditions of this Agreement.
6.25 Legal Advice; Neutral Interpretation; Headings, and Table of Contents. Each Party
has received independent legal advice from its attorneys with respect to the advisability of
executing this Agreement and the meaning of the provisions hereof. The provisions of this
5598767.1 92
Agreement shall be construed as to their fair meaning, and not for or against any Party based upon
any attribution to such Party as the source of the language in question. The headings and table of
contents used in this Agreement are for the convenience of reference only and shall not be used in
construing this Agreement.
6.26 Counterparts. This Agreement is executed in 6 duplicate originals, each of which is
deemed to be an original. This Agreement, not counting the Cover Page, Table of Contents,
consists of 69 pages and 12 Exhibits which constitute the entire understanding and agreement of
the Parties. The Exhibits are identified in the List of Exhibits, which is contained in the Table of
Contents of this Agreement.
6.27 Authority to Execute. The person executing this Agreement on behalf of Disney warrants
and represents that he/she has the authority to execute this Agreement on behalf of Disney and
represents that he/she has the authority to bind Disney to the performance of Disney’s obligations
hereunder.
6.28 Reserved.
6.29 Continued Processing. The filing of any Litigation shall not delay or stop the
development, processing or construction of the Project or approval of any Development
Approvals, unless the third party obtains a court order preventing the activity. The City shall not
stipulate to or cooperate in the issuance of any such order without the prior written consent of
Disney. In the event of a court order issued as a result of a successful Litigation, the City shall, to
the extent permitted by such court order and Applicable Law, in good faith seek to comply with
the court order in such a manner as will maintain the integrity of the Project Approvals and avoid
or minimize to the greatest extent possible (i) any impact to the development of the Project as
provided for in, and contemplated by, the Project Approvals, the Applicable Rules and this
Agreement, or (ii) any conflict with the Project Approvals, the Applicable Rules and this
Agreement, or frustration of the intent or purpose of the Project Approvals, the Applicable Rules
and this Agreement.
5598767.1 93
6.30 Initiative Measures. Both the City and Disney intend that this Agreement is a legally
binding contract which will supersede any initiative, measure, moratorium, referendum, statute,
ordinance or other limitation adopted after the Effective Date (whether relating to the rate, timing
or sequencing of the development or construction of any or any part of the Project and whether
enacted by initiative or otherwise) affecting parcel or subdivision maps (whether tentative, vesting
tentative or final), building permits, occupancy certificates or other entitlements to use approved,
issued or granted within the City, or portions of the City, and which agreement shall apply to the
Project to the extent such initiative, measure, moratorium, referendum, statute, ordinance or other
limitation is inconsistent or in conflict with this Agreement. Should an initiative, measure,
moratorium, referendum, statute, ordinance, or other limitation be enacted by the citizens of the
City which would preclude construction of all or any part of the Project, and to the extent such
initiative, measure, moratorium, referendum, statute, ordinance or other limitation be determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction to invalidate or prevail over all or any part of this Agreement,
Disney shall have no recourse against the City pursuant to the Agreement, but shall retain all other
rights, claims and causes of action under this Agreement not so invalidated and any and all other
rights, claims and causes of action as law or in equity which Disney may have independent of this
Agreement with respect to the Project. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit Disney’s right
to appeal any such determination that such initiative, measure, referendum, statute, ordinance or
other limitation invalidates or prevails over all or any part of this Agreement. The City agrees to
cooperate with Disney in all reasonable manners in order to keep this Agreement in full force and
effect, provided Disney shall reimburse the City for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred directly in
connection with such cooperation and the City shall not be obligated to institute a lawsuit of other
court proceedings in this connection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Development
Agreement shall not limit City’s right and power to impose taxes on the Property or Project
provided that any taxes imposed are adopted pursuant to all applicable laws and that said tax
qualifies as a City-Wide Tax. For the purposes of this Section 6.30 a “City-Wide Tax” means a
5598767.1 94
general or special tax generally applicable to a category of development or use of one or more
kinds, wherever the same may be located in the City, including but not limited to, a general or
special tax adopted in accordance with California Const, Art XIII C and D et seq. (otherwise known
as Proposition 218); provided, however, that a general or special tax which only applies to or
impacts the Project shall not be considered a City-Wide Tax.
6.31 Subsequent Amendment to Development Agreement Act. The Agreement has
been entered into in reliance upon the provisions of the Development Agreement Act in effect as
of the Effective Date. Accordingly, to the extent that subsequent amendments to the Government
Code would affect the provisions of this Agreement, such amendments shall not be applicable to
this Agreement unless necessary for this Agreement to be enforceable or unless this Agreement is
modified pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and Governmental Code Section 65868 as
in effect on the Effective Date.
6.32 Recitals. The recitals in this Agreement constitute part of this Agreement and each
party shall be entitled to rely on the truth and accuracy of each recital as an inducement to enter
into this Agreement.

Agreement in their entirety by this reference.

Terms for TOT In Lieu Agreement
Subsequent DVC TOT In-Lieu Agreements: I. Tailoring of In-Lieu Agreement for each DVC Project: All DVC TOT In-Lieu Agreements relating to DVC Projects developed and opened during the Term shall be in substantially identical form to that certain Transient Occupancy Tax Agreement
by and between the City and Disney Vacation Development, Inc., dated as of October 6, 2020; provided, however, that Section 2(a) of said agreement shall be replaced with language substantially identical to the following: a. The Parties hereby agree that, with respect to each year of operation of the Project,
DVD shall make TOT in-lieu payments (“TOT in-lieu”) to the City in accordance with this Section II(A). i. Non-Application to Transient (Hotel) Guests: TOT in-lieu payments shall be calculated based on actual occupancy of the timeshare units when occupied by a DVD Timeshare Owner or other occupant based on a timeshare exchange; however, when a Project unit
is occupied by a transient (hotel) guest, TOT and ATID shall be collected and paid as though the unit is a standard Hotel room rather than under this Agreement. ii. Comp Set Determination: The Parties agree that the primary comparison for purposes of establishing the comparison TOT in-lieu for the respective TOT in-lieu shall be rates (inclusive of all charges including parking and daily resort fees) charged by Disney or any third-
party hotel booking service for average nightly room rate for each specific unit type within the actual DVC project. If there is not an applicable comparison rate either because the DVC project has not yet commenced operation or most or all the DVC units are actually occupied by DVC members for the comparison period (as distinguished from DVC members who make their DVC unit available rent on third-party hotel booking services), the Parties agree that the hotel or list of
hotels agreed to (or deemed agreed to) by the Parties are the appropriate competitive set for the Project (“Comp Set”), determined according to the principles and process set forth in Exhibit XX, Section II of that certain Development Agreement dated [Insert Date], 2024 by and between the City and Walt Disney Parks and Resorts U.S., Inc., an affiliate of DVD (the “DA”).
A. Periodic and Requested Comp Set Reviews. On or around every
fifth (5th) anniversary of the Project’s opening date, or more frequently (but not less than two years since the last the last review) if either Party requests a review in writing on the basis of materially changed circumstances in either the DVC Project or the Comp Set which the requesting Party believes likely causes a difference in TOT revenues to the City under this Agreement of more than
10% from where they would otherwise be, the Parties shall meet and confer as to whether the
Project’s Comp Set accurately reflects the Project’s market positioning, following the process set forth in Section II.C. of Exhibit XX to the DA to confirm the existing Comp Set or determine the new Comp Set. iii. Initial Determination of Sum Total Point Value: Each night of the year will
be assigned a point value specific to Project room type, season, and day of the week (“Point
5598767.1 A - 14
Value”). Beginning with the Project’s first year of operation and thereafter on an annual basis, and no more frequently than on an annual basis, DVD shall provide to the City a Point Value allocation for the Project. The Parties agree that while the Point Value allocation may change from year to year, the sum total Point Value for the Project shall remain static from year to year. iv. Calculation of TOT Value Per Point. For each night that a timeshare unit
in the Project is occupied and to which this Agreement applies under Section 2(a)(i), DVD will collect from the occupant, at checkout, an amount based on the Point Value assigned to such night, times a dollar figure with respect to TOT in-lieu (“TOT Value Per Point”). A. Initial Operation Period. For the first year of operation (the “first year of operation” being defined as the first full calendar year of the Project’s operations plus any
partial calendar year of operations (i.e., if the Project opens on a day other than January 1st)), the TOT Value Per Point shall be set at (i) the actual TOT [(imputed for non-Anaheim hotels in the Comp Set based on their average daily rate and occupancy rate)] paid by the Project’s Comp Set for the twelve (12) full calendar months ending on the date which immediately precedes the date which is one year before the date on which the Project opens for operations (so, for a Project that
opened on January 1, 2028, the measurement period would be January 1 through December 31, 2026), multiplied by (ii) a fraction equal to (y) the number of timeshare units in the Project divided by (z) the number of rooms available for hire in the Comp Set during the relevant period, such amount to be divided by (iii) [95]% of the sum total Point Value for the Project. B. Annual Reset and Review. For each subsequent year of Project
operation, the TOT Value Per Point shall be reset as of January 1 to reflect the change in results for clause 2(a)(iv)(A)(i) above for the Project’s Comp Set for the preceding twelve (12) full calendar months, with primacy given in this determination, where applicable, to Project rooms sold during that time period to transient (hotel) guests of the Existing Disney Hotel in which the Project is physically embedded or to which it is immediately adjacent, as contemplated in II.B.1
below (but not II.B.2), and for clause 2(a)(iv)(A)(iii) above to reflect any difference between the initial occupancy assumption and the Project’s actual occupancy. For the sake of clarity, this change reflected in the preceding calendar year shall be applied to the TOT Value Per Point for stays occurring in the subsequent (not present) calendar year.
C. Changes in City TOT Rate. The TOT Value Per Point shall also be
increased or decreased to reflect any change in the TOT rate of 15% (or the tax rate then in effect pursuant to Code Section 2.12.010.)
II. Principles and Process for Establishing the Comp Set including Dispute Resolution A. Overarching Goal: The Parties intend that the in-lieu TOT paid to the City for all future DVC projects approximate economic parity with the market rates and associated TOT paid for that DVC Project’s most comparable Hotel rooms, i.e., its Comp Set, to the full extent
feasible throughout the Term of that DVC Project’s TOT agreement.
B. Comp Set Determination – General Principles: 1) When DVC Project is Embedded in an Existing Disney Hotel. The Parties acknowledge and agree that absent an atypical market strategy or room development type within the DVC Project, where the DVC Project is physically embedded and/or immediately
5598767.1 A - 15
adjacent to an existing Disney Hotel (the “Existing Disney Hotel”), the appropriate Comp Set for that DVC Project is the set of one consisting of that Existing Disney Hotel. 2) When the DVC Project is Not Embedded in or is Differentiated from Existing Disney Hotel(s). If the DVC Project is not physically embedded and/or immediately
adjacent to an existing Disney Hotel, or is so embedded and/or adjacent but is intended to be marketed at a value point materially inconsistent with that of the Existing Disney Hotel, then the Comp Set for that DVC Project shall be determined by reference to a combination (which can include a relative economic allocation) of Disney hotels determined by the Parties or, if the Parties do not agree, by their respective Lodging Industry Experts pursuant to the process described below
as most likely to reflect the DVC Project’s market position and pricing. The preference will be for reliance on Disney hotels in Anaheim, but reliance on one or more then-existing Disney hotels in Florida will be permitted if the consensus of the Parties and/or the expert opinion of the Lodging Industry Experts is that inclusion of such hotels is beneficial to the determination of the DVC Project’s market positioning. By way of example only, if a DVC Project was proposed as a
physical addition to the Pixar Place Hotel but was intended to be marketed as a more luxe offering, the Parties and/or their Lodging Industry Experts could, exercising their judgment, determine the Comp Set by reference solely to Pixar Place Hotel but with an assumed adjustment to reflect the expected premium, or by reference (presumably weighted) to both Pixar Place Hotel and Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel and Spa, or by references to both these hotels and/or additional then-
existing Disney hotels in Florida that had similar characteristics to the planned DVC Project helpful to determining its likely market position. 3) Commitment of Candor and Adherence to Overarching Goal. Disney agrees that throughout each Comp Set process, it will provide a candid picture to the City’s
representatives of its intended lodging product and general marketing intent with the DVC Project, so as to accurately inform the Comp Set decision, and also as to the relevant rates of any non-Anaheim existing Disney hotel included or proposed to be included in the Comp Set. Disney and the City both agree that throughout each Comp Set process, they shall be guided, and they shall
direct their respective Lodging Industry Experts to be guided, by the overarching goal of
approximating economic parity in market rates for the most comparable Hotel rooms to the DVC Project, and in payment of associated TOT.
C. Process for Comp Set Determination and Dispute Resolution
1) Initial Discussion. No later than eighteen (18) months before the anticipated public opening of a DVC Project, the Parties will meet to discuss the DVC Project and its anticipated market positioning and shall attempt to reach mutual agreement on the associated Comp Set at this meeting or within 45 days thereafter (such timeframe, the “Initial Comp Set
Period”). The Parties may include their respective Lodging Industry Experts in this initial meeting.
2) Industry Expert Resolution. If the Parties cannot reach agreement on the DVC Project’s Comp Set within the Initial Comp Set Period, then they shall notify one another no later than 5 days after the Initial Comp Set Period ends of the identity of their respective
Lodging Industry Expert if they have not already done so, providing contact information.
5598767.1 A - 16
i. The Parties’ Lodging Industry Experts shall meet within 30 days after the Initial Comp Set Period ends to discuss the DVC Project and its anticipated market positioning and shall attempt to reach mutual agreement on the associated Comp Set at this meeting. The Parties may attend the initial portion of the meeting to provide the Lodging Industry Experts with an overview of the DVC Project and their respective viewpoints appropriate Comp
Set inclusions, if these have not already been communicated during the Initial Comp Set Period, and the Parties will then allow the Experts to meet and confer privately. If after private conference the Parties’ Lodging Industry Experts reach agreement, they will immediately notify the Parties of the DVC Project’s Comp Set and the Parties agree to be bound by that decision. ii. If the Parties’ Lodging Industry Experts cannot agree on the
DVC Project’s Comp Set during their meeting, they will identify for the Parties in writing, within 10 days thereafter, (A) one or more mutually agreeable candidates in ranked order to serve as the third Lodging Industry Expert (the “Third Expert;” collectively with City’s Lodging Industry Expert and Disney’s Lodging Industry Expert, the “Experts”), and (B) their respective opinion about the DVC Project’s appropriate Comp Set. The Parties will proceed to engage the Third
Expert, the costs of whom will be mutually borne by the Parties, no later than 30 days after the Parties’ Lodging Industry Experts provide their list of Third Expert candidates. iii. The Parties and, if they can both attend, their respective Experts, will meet with the Third Expert within fifteen (15) days after the Third Expert is engaged to provide an overview of the DVC Project, their views as to its expected market positioning, and
the other Experts’ opinions as to the Project’s appropriate Comp Set.
iv. No later than thirty (30) days after the joint
meeting, the Third Expert will notify the Parties which of the two Parties’ Experts’ opinion as to
Comp Set the Third Party believes is the better Comp Set for the DVC Project given the
overarching goal set forth in Section II.A. The Parties agree to be bound by that decision.
