WHEREAS, the City has adopted a resolution which provides that it elects to be eligible to participate in tax abatement and has adopted guidelines and criteria governing tax abatement agreements known as the Denton Tax Abatement Policy; and WHEREAS, on the 6`h day of December, 2005, the City Council of Denton, Texas (the "City Council") adopted the Denton Tax Abatement Policy (the "Policy"), a copy of which is on file in the City of Denton Economic Development Office and which is incorporated herein by reference; and WHEREAS, the Policy constitutes appropriate "guidelines and criteria" governing tax abatement agreements to be entered into by the City as contemplated by Section 312.002 of the Texas Tax Code, as amended (the "Code"); and WHEREAS, on the 21s` day of August 2007, the City Council passed Ordinance No. ~] 5 (the "Ordinance") establishing Reinvestment Zone No. VIII, City of Denton, Texas, as a commercial/industrial reinvestment zone for tax abatement (the "Zone"), as authorized by Title 3, Chapter 312, Subchapter B of the Code (the "Act"); and WHEREAS, Owner will be the owner, as of the Effective Date (as hereinafter defined), which ownership is a condition precedent, of certain real property, more particulazly described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference and made a part of this Agree- ment for all purposes (the "Premises") located entirely within the Zone as of the Effective Date; and WHEREAS, on the 4th day of June 2007, Owner submitted an application for tax abate- ment with various attachments to the City concerning the contemplated use of the Premises (the "Application for Tax Abatement"), which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit "B"; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the contemplated use of the Premises, the Con- templated Improvements (as hereinafter defined) to the Premises as set forth in this Agreement, and the other terms hereof are consistent with encouraging development of the Zone in accor- dance with the purposes for its creation and are in compliance with the Ordinance and Policy and similar guidelines and criteria adopted by the City and all applicable law; and WHEREAS, notice has been published in accordance with Chapter 312 of the Tax Code and written notice that the City intends to enter into this Agreement, along with a copy of this Agreement, has been furnished by the City, in the manner and by the time prescribed by the Code, to the presiding officers of the governing bodies of each of the taxing units in which the Premises is located; and NOW, THEREFORE, the City and Owner for and in consideration of the premises and the promises contained herein do hereby contract, covenant, and agree as follows: I. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ABATEMENT A. In consideration of and subject to the Owner meeting all the terms and conditions of abatement set forth herein, the City hereby grants the following tax abatement ("Abatement"): 1. An abatement equal to 100% of City ad valorem taxes attributable to new capital investments resulting in an increase of assessed value of real property improve- ments to and tangible personal property (including inventory and supplies) located on the Prem- ises but only if such increase is at least $25,000,000 over the assessed value of the Premises and tangible personal property (including inventory and supplies) located on the Premises as of Janu- azy 1, 2007, for a period of five yeazs commencing on January 1 of the yeaz following the Owner's receipt of a certificate of occupancy (the "CO") for the Premises. If such increase in assessed value is less than $25,000,000 there will be no Abatement. B. A condition of the Abatement is that, by December 31, 2009 (subject to force ma- jeure delays not to exceed 180 days), a capital investment which results in an increase in the as- sessed values contemplated by Section I.A.I be made to the Premises. For the purposes of this pazagraph, the term "force majeure" shall mean any circumstance or any condition beyond the control of Owner, as set forth in Section XXI "Force Majeure" which makes it impossible to meet the above-mentioned thresholds. C. The term "capital investment" is defined as the construction, renovation and equipping of the Improvements on the Premises (the "Contemplated Improvements" or "Im- provements") to include (1) costs related to the development and improvement of the real estate, including, without limitation, construction costs and design and engineering costs; (2) tangible personal property located on or at the Contemplated Improvements by Owner, including inven- tory and supplies. The kind and location of the Contemplated Improvements is more particularly described in the Application for Tax Abatement. D. A condition of the Abatement is that the Contemplated Improvements be con- structed and the Premises be used substantially in accordance with the description of the project set forth in the Application for Tax Abatement. E. A condition of the Abatement is that throughout the Term of the Abatement, the Contemplated Improvements shall be operated and maintained for the purposes set forth herein so that the uses of the Premises shall be consistent with the general purpose of encouraging de- velopment or redevelopment of the Zone, except as otherwise authorized or modified by this Agreement. Page 2 F. A condition of the Abatement is that the Owner shall construct Wescourt Road, from Airport Road south to Springside Road (a distance of approximately 4,200 linear feet) as a two-lane, concrete road and to specifications acceptable by the City of Denton. Construction of Westcourt Road must be completed and accepted prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occu- pancy by the City of Denton. G. The City shall have the right to terminate the Abatement if the Owner does not occupy the Contemplated Improvements continuously for the term of the Abatement for the pur- poses set forth in the Tax Abatement Application. In the event of such termination the Owner shall refund to the City all previous tax abatements and all tax abatements for future years shall be terminated. H. Owner agrees to comply with all the terms and conditions set forth in this Agree- ment. II. FAILURE TO MEET CONDITIONS A. In the event that (i) the conditions in paragraphs I(B) through [(H) aze not met; or (ii) Owner allows its ad valorem real property taxes with respect to any properties owned within the city limits of the City of Denton with respect to any real property and tangible personal prop- erty, if any, owned by the Owner, owed the City to become delinquent and fails to timely and properly follow the legal procedures for protest and/or contest of any such ad valorem real prop- erty or tangible personal property taxes; or (iii) any other conditions of this Agreement are not met, then a "Condition Failure" shall be deemed to have occurred (it being understood that a Condition Failure relating to any condition set forth in paragraphs I(B) through I(H) shall not be deemed to occur merely because at a particular time it cannot be determined whether such condi- tion will be met, but shall occur only if at a particular time it can be definitively determined that such condition will not be met). In the event that a Condition Failure occurs, the City shall give Owner written notice of such Condition Failure and if the Condition Failure has not been cured or satisfied within ninety (90) days of said written notice, the Abatement shall be terminated with respect to the year in which notice of the Condition Failure is given and all future years; pro- vided, however, that if such Condition Failure is not reasonably susceptible of cure or satisfac- tion within such ninety (90) day period and Owner has commenced and is pursuing the cure or satisfaction of same, then after first advising City Council of efforts to cure or satisfy same, Owner may utilize an additional ninety (90) days. Time in addition to the foregoing 180 days may be authorized by the City Council. It is understood that the Abatement with respect to any year prior to the year in which notice of the Condition Failure is given shall not be forfeited or recaptured except as indicated under Section II.B hereof. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Owner shall refund to the City all tax abatements previously received with interest for the yeaz in which the notice of Condition Failure is given. B. If, however, the Owner fails to construct any structures or other improvements, or fails to install any equipment or other tangible personal property within the Premises by Decem- ber 31, 2009 or if the Owner fails to construct Westcourt Road as described in I(F), or the value Page 3 of the Improvements falls below the minimum $25,000,000 threshold during the term of the Ab- atement, then this Agreement may be terminated by the City. In such event, Owner shall refund to the City all tax abatements previously granted and received under this Agreement with interest on the amount to be refunded at six percent (6%) per annum. C. In the event of a Condition Failure by Owner which is not cured or satisfied as set forth herein, in addition to a partial or total recapture of the tax abatement, the City may cancel or modify this Agreement. III. RECORDS AND EVALUATION OF PROJECT A. The Owner shall provide access and authorize inspection of the Premises by City employees and allow sufficient inspection of financial information related to construction of Westcourt Road to insure that the Improvements are made and the thresholds are met according to the specifications and conditions of this Agreement. Such inspections shall be done in a way that will not interfere with Owner's business operations. City shall annually (or such other times deemed appropriate by the City) evaluate the Project to ensure compliance with this Agreement. B. The City Manager shall make a decision and rule on the eligibility of the Project for tax abatement based on the information furnished each year by the Owner on or before Au- gust 1 of the taxable year and shall so notify Owner and the City Council. C. During normal office hours throughout the Term of this Agreement, providing reasonable notice is given to Owner, the City shall have access to the Premises by City employ- ees for the purpose of inspecting the Premises and the Improvements to ensure that the Im- provements are being made in accordance with the specifications and conditions of this Agree- ment and to verify that the conditions of this Agreement are being complied with, provided that such inspection shall not interfere with Owner's normal business operations. D. The Owner shall annually make a certification in writing to the City Council, on or before June 1 sc of each year this Agreement is in effect that certifies that the Owner is in com- pliance with each applicable term of this Agreement. IV. GENERAL PROVISIONS A. The City has determined that it has adopted guidelines and criteria governing tax abatement agreements For the City to allow it to enter into this Agreement containing the terms set forth herein. B. The City has determined that procedures followed by the City conform to the re- quvements of the Code and the Policy, and have been and will be undertaken in coordination with Owner's corporate, public employee, and business relations requirements. C. The Premises are not in an improvement project financed by tax increment bonds. Page 4 D. Neither the Premises nor any of the Improvements covered by this Agreement are owned or leased by any member of the City Council, any member of the City Planning and Zon- ing Commission of the City, or any member of the governing body of any taxing units joining in or adopting this Agreement. E. In the event of any conflict between the City zoning ordinances, or other City or- dinances or regulations, and this Agreement, such ordinances or regulations shall control. V. EFFECT OF SALE, ASSIGNMENT, OR LEASE OF PROPERTY A. The Abatement with respect to the Premises, including any tangible personal property located on the Premises owned by Owner, shall vest in Owner and shall be assignable, with City approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, to any individual, partnership, joint venture, corporation, trust or other entity (irrespective of whether or not such assignee is related to or affiliated with Owner) which acquires title to the Premises. Any assignee of Owner or any assignee of a direct or indirect assignee of Owner shall be treated as "Owner" under this Agreement. No assignment shall require the consent of City if the assignment is to a wholly- owned subsidiary of the Owner or to a subsidiary of Aldi Inc., the Owner's pazent company, or if, following such assignment, the Owner continues to occupy and operate the Contemplated Im- provements for the full term of this Agreement.
