The City will use its best efforts and work diligently to complete the Project; NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals which are incorporated herein, City and Developer, acting by and through their duly authorized representatives, do hereby agree as follows: 1. The City is currently designing the NS 11 30 WM. Developer shall deliver the Developer's Design Cost of$112,600 to the City within 10 business days after the Effective Date. The Developer's final design costs obligation for design of the Project("Developer's Final Design Cost")will be calculated and adjusted based on the final verified design costs after the Project is completed. 2. Developer's payment to the City of Developer's Construction Cost in the amount of$1,116,700 shall be provided not later than 10 business days after the date of the public bid opening for the Project. The City will provide Developer with prior written notice of the date of the public bid opening to allow Developer a reasonable amount of time to make a payment to the City for Developer's Construction Cost. The Developer's final construction costs obligation for right-of-way acquisition, construction, project management and inspection costs ("Developer's Final Construction Cost') will be calculated and adjusted based on the final verified construction costs after the Project is completed. 3. The parties acknowledge that Developer's Combined Costs outlined in Section 1 and Section 2 herein are based on an estimated total project cost. The parties agree that Developer's Final Design Cost and Developer's Final Construction Cost will be limited to the portion of the NS 1130 Mss capacity used to provide water for Developer's use of the Property (currently estimated at 11.8%) and as otherwise allowed under applicable law. This obligation will be calculated and adjusted accordingly based on final and verified costs of the Project. The City will provide regular written reports of the status of the public bidding process on a regular basis to the Developer, including but not limited to any anticipated changes in the estimated cost of the Project. If the City anticipates a delay or it is anticipated that the public bid is greater than 120% of the estimated total cost of $10,417,800, the City will work in good faith with Trophy Club MUD#1, Westlake and the Developer to address the total costs of the Project and to agree on how the costs will be assessed. The City agrees to work collaboratively with all parties to minimize the total costs for the Project. Accordingly, if(i) the portion of the NS 1130 WM's capacity used to provide water for Developer's use of the Property is less than 11.8% of the NS 1130 WM's total capacity; or(ii) if the final project costs are less than the aforementioned $10,417,800 estimated total cost of the Project, Developer will be entitled a refund equal to the difference between Developer's Combined Costs and Developer's Final Cost. Conversely, if(i) the portion of the NS 11 30 WM's capacity used to provide water for Developer's use of the Property is greater than 11.8% of the NS 11 30 WM's total capacity; or (ii) if the final project costs are greater than the aforementioned $10,417,800 estimated total cost of the Project, Developer will pay an additional amount to the city equal to the difference between Developer's Final Cost and Developer's Combined Cost. 2 4. The City shall move to cause construction of the NS 11 30 WM as soon as is reasonably practical after the design is completed provided adequate public funds are available, including those funds from the other participants, Trophy Club MUD#1 and Westlake. 5. Developer understands and acknowledges that it will, at its own cost, also need to extend a 16- inch water main from the NS II 30 WM to its Property. The Developer or its representative will submit its development plan through the City's IPRC Plan Review and enter into a Community Facilities agreement for this improvement. Until the water improvement is completed and accepted by the City, the Developer's maximum water rate will remain at 800 GPM as identified in the MOU. 6. City will use best efforts and work diligently to complete the Project in a timely manner. The Developer acknowledges that the City cannot guarantee the official construction award date and construction completion date. City estimates that the portion of the Project from existing connection to Westport crossing will be completed by August 31, 2018, notwithstanding unforeseen circumstances. If construction of the aforementioned section of the Project has not commenced by May 31, 2018, the parties agree to negotiate a new agreement to allow for the construction and payment of the Project. The City agrees that it will reimburse the Developer for any Projects costs in excess of the Developer's Combined Costs. After August 31,2018, if the parties cannot agree to a hew development agreement and the Developer's portion of the Project is not constructed, then the City shall return all payments made by the Developer within sixty (60) days after the Developer notifies the City that it no longer wishes to participate in the Project. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the negotiation of a new development agreement may provide the option for Developer to construct the Project, but shall in no event be construed as an obligation of Developer to construct all or any portion of the Project. 7, The City will use its best reasonable efforts to construct the Project in accordance with the aforementioned estimated timeline without undue delay, force majeure events notwithstanding. Force majeure events shall mean that if the performance of any obligation hereunder is delayed by reason of war, civil commotion, acts of God, strike, inclement weather, shortages or unavailability of labor or materials, or other similar circumstances which are reasonably beyond the control of the party obligated or permitted under the terms of this Agreement to do or perform the same, the party so obligated or permitted shall be excused from doing or performing the same during such period of delay, so that the time period applicable to such design or construction requirement shall be extended for a reasonable period of time equal to the period such party was delayed. 8. 3 This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the City and Developer and their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement, together with any attached exhibits, supplements the MOU between the parties, as amended, and this Agreement may not be amended or terminated except in writing, signed by the parties and dated subsequent to the date hereof. If Developer or any subsequent owner transfers the Property or any portion thereof prior to the performance of all obligations of the Developer hereunder, Developer or such transferring owner shall obtain an agreement from the transferee assuming the obligations of the transferring owner under this Agreement performable from and after the date of transfer. From and after the date of such transfer, the transferee shall be solely obligated under this Agreement, and the transferring party shall have no further obligations under this Agreement or any portion thereof transferred. 9.
