RECITALS
A. Developer is the owner of that real property located in Pima County, Arizona and adjacent
to the Town, consisting of approximately 422.5 acres, legally described on Exhibit "A" attached hereto
and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property").
B. The Developer and the Town desire that the Property be annexed into the corporate limits
of the Town and be developed as an integral part of the Town, and in accordance with the existing
General Plan for the Town. The annexation and development of the Property pursuant to this
Agreement is acknowledged by the parties hereto to be consistent with the Town's General Plan and
operate to the benefit of the Town, the Developer and the general public.
C. Arizona Revised Statutes 9-500.05 authorizes the Town to enter into binding development
agreements with landowners or other persons or entities having an interest in real property located in
the Town. The Town and the Developer are entering into this Agreement pursuant to the provisions
of A.R.S. 9-500.05 in order to facilitate development of the Property, to avoid waste of resources and
escalation in the cost of housing and other development to the consumers thereof and to encourage
investment in and commitment to comprehensive planning which will make maximum efficient
utilization of resources at the least economic cost to the public, by providing for, among other things,
conditions, terms, restrictions and requirements for the construction of public infrastructure as more
particularly described herein, and the financing for such public infrastructure improvements; certainty
and the approvals necessary for the development of the Property, including land uses, densities and
intensities; and by providing assurances to the Developer that it may proceed with development of the
Property in accordance with the Town's existing land use policies, rules and regulations.
D. The Developer intends to develop the Property as a large scale, mixed use development for
the uses and purposes set forth in the Development Plan for the Property, which has been prepared and
filed with the Town prior to the date of this Agreement and which has been approved by the Town.
A copy of the plan is attached hereto as Exhibit "B" and incorporated herein by this reference
(hereinafter referred to as the "Development Plan"). The development of the Property requires
substantial early and major capital expenditures and investments with respect to the construction of
major infrastructure facilities. Because development of the Property is a project of such great
magnitude, the Developer requires assurances from the Town that the Developer will be able to
complete development of the Property pursuant to the Development Plan before it will expend
substantial efforts and costs in such development. The Town, in order to encourage development of
the Property consistent with the General Plan of the Town, has approved the proposed uses set forth
in the Development Plan and adopted with zoning classifications, land uses, and densities and intensities
consistent with the Development Plan, and agrees to cooperate in good faith with the Developer to
expedite the approval and granting of permits, site plans, rezoning applications, plats and other
development approvals for the Property in accordance with the Town's General Plan, the Development
Plan and this Agreement. In reliance on the Town's execution of this Agreement and its agreement and
representations that it will approve the development of the Property in accordance with the Development
Plan (which reliance is acknowledged to be reasonable), the Developer intends to (i) expend substantial
effort and incur substantial costs in proceeding to refine the Development Plan, which costs include,
but are not limited to, costs for pprforming marketing, infrastructure and feasibility studies; (ii) develop
land use planning, architectural, engineering and landscaping designs and plans, (iii) pursue, in
accordance with this Agreement, the development of the Property.
E. The Town acknowledges and agrees that the development of the Property pursuant to this
Agreement will result in significant planning and economic benefits to the Town and its residents by
(i) requiring the development of the Property to be consistent with the Development Plan, (ii) increasing
tax and other revenues to the Town based upon, among other things, the construction of improvements
on the Property and the use of the Property for business purposes, and (iii) creating jobs through
development of the Property and through the operation of new businesses on the Property. The Town
has determined that entering into this Agreement will further the goals and objectives of the Town's
general plan and its overall land use planning policies by eliminating uncertainty and planning for the
orderly development of the Property so that adequate long term plans regarding the necessary on-site
and off-site infrastructure for the existing and future Town residents can be developed and implemented,
and the maximum effective utilization of Town resources will be pursued at the least economic cost to
its citizens. The benefits conferred by the Developer herein will facilitate the installation of certain
desired public improvements within the Tow - n, which will significantly promote the health, safety and
general welfare of existing future Town residents. In exchange for these benefits to the Town and its
residents, the Developer shall receive the assurances authorized by Arizona law that the Developer may
proceed to develop the Property in accordance with the Town's existing land use ordinances, policies,
procedures and regulations, at a rate of development within its discretion, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement.
F. The Town's planning and zoning commission and council have found and determined that
this Agreement: (i) is consistent with the Town's General Plan; (ii) is in the best interests of the health,
safety and general welfare of the Town, its residents and the general public; (iii) is entered into pursuant
to and constitutes a present exercise of the police power by the Town; and (iv) is entered into pursuant
to and in compliance with the requirements of Arizona Revised Statutes 9-500.05. The assurances
provided by the Town and Developer to each other herein have been provided pursuant to and as
contemplated by Arizona statute, bargained and in consideration for the undertaking of the obligations
of the parties as set forth herein, and are intended to be and have been relied upon by the parties to their
detriment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual promises and
agreements set forth herein, the parties hereto state, confirm and agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
I. CONSTRUCTION AND FINANCING OF INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS.
The parties acknowledge that the Property pursuant to the Development Plan will require the
construction and installation of infrastructure improvements, such as streets, sewer, bank stabilization,
water lines and other improvements as described in the Development Plan (collectively, the
"Infrastructure Improvements"). The cost of construction of the Infrastructure Improvements may be
paid for by the Developer, by a community facilities district formed to construct or acquire such
improvements in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth, by such other means as set forth
below or by such other means as may be agreed to by the parties.
1.1 Develot)er. The Developer shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time after
execution of this Agreement, to construct or cause to be constructed and installed any part or all of the
Infrastructure Improvements necessary for implementation and , acquisition of effluent storage,
distribution facilities and other improvements necessary to fully develop the Property in conformance
with the outline of such improvements attached hereto as Exhibit "C" (the "District Infrastructure
Improvement Outline). All such construction, if performed by Developer, shall be performed in a good
and workmanlike manner and in compliance with all applicable laws, permit requirements, standards,
codes, rules or regulations of the Town and of the State of Arizona, or the United States, as applicable,
and in accordance with a map of dedication therefor, which has been filed with and approved by the
appropriate governmental authorities. The Developer, its agents and employees, shall have the right
to use any existing Town easements or rights-of-way to the extent reasonably necessary to facilitate such
construction, and the Town shall duly execute and record all documents or instruments which may be
necessary in accordance therewith. In addition, in the event any additional easements or rights-of-way
are necessary in order to construct or install any part or all of the Infrastructure Improvements, and
such easements or rights-of-way cannot be acquired by the Developer at a cost which Developer deems
reasonable, the Town shall initiate and diligently pursue condemnation of any real property necessary
for such easements or rights-of-way, as determined to be necessary by the Developer and the Town.
The Developer shall pay all costs incurred by the Town in connection with the condemnation of such
real property, including the full amount of any condemnation award assessed against the Town and in
favor of the person or entity whose property is condemned. Upon completion of any acquisition or
condemnation under this paragraph, title to the land shall vest in the Town, and the Town shall provide
such easements and rights-of-way (and execute and record all necessary documents and instruments)
which may be necessary in connection with the construction of the Infrastructure Improvements by the
Developer.
1.2 CI-o-mmunitv Facilities District. The Town hereby agrees to cooperate with the Developer
in forming a Community Facilities District (the "District") pursuant to A.R.S. 48.701 et §N (the "CFD
Act") for the purpose of funding the construction or acquisition of those Infrastructure Improvements
(which may include Infrastructure Improvements to be acquired from the Developer). Upon receipt of
a petition filed in connection with the formation of the District signed by 100% of the owners of the
3
land within the proposed District, the Town shall approve an appropriate resolution for the formation
of the District. In the event the Developer does not obtain the signatures of 100% of the owners of the
land within the proposed District but obtains at least 25 % of the required signatures, the Town and the
Developer shall work together to obtain the number of signatures required to form the District. Upon
formation of the District, the District shall declare its intent and commit to issue its bonds, in one or
more series (hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Bonds"), pursuant to the CFD Act, in amounts
necessary and sufficient for the construction or acquisition of the District Infrastructure Improvements
and all expenses of which may, if allowed by law, be paid out of the proceeds received from the sale
of the Bonds. Upon the submission by the Developer to the Town of a valid and sufficient petition for
the formation of any other community facilities district in addition to the District, the Town agrees to
exercise good faith and use best efforts to expedite the formation of such district pursuant to the
provisions of the CFD Act, all provisions of this Paragraph 1.2 relating to the operation of the District
shall apply thereto.
1.2.1 Board of Directors of the District. The initial Board of Directors of the District shall be
those individuals appointed to such positions as agreed to by the Town and the Developer and identified
in the District Resolution. In the event of a vacancy occurring on the expiration of the term of an
appointed board member of the District upon the death, resignation or inability of a board member to
discharge the duties of such office, the District shall notify the Developer of such vacancy and give the
Developer a reasonable opportunity to recommend candidates for appointment to fill the vacancy and
to advise and consult with the Town in connection therewith. After considering the general
qualifications of any candidates recommended by the Developer, the Town shall promptly appoint a new
or interim District board member as the case may be.
1.2.2 Operation of District. The following provisions shall apply to the operation of the District
and any other community facilities district formed pursuant to Paragraph 1.2 of this Agreement:
(a) Ratification of Agreement. Upon formation of the District pursuant to this
Agreement, the District shall, in accordance with A.R.S. 9-500.05, be deemed to
be a party to this Agreement, and at the first meeting of the Board of Directors of
the District, the Board of Directors shall ratify this Agreement.
(b) Feasibilily Roorts. Prior to the construction or acquisition of any District
Infrastructure Improvements by the District, the District's Board of Directors shall,
in accordance with the CFD Act, approve a feasibility report, which report shall be
prepared by the Developer or any independent qualified person or firm selected by
Developer on behalf of the District. The cost of such feasibility report shall be
borne by the Developer, but shall, so long as bonds are sold by the District, be
reimbursed by the District in accordance with the applicable feasibility report.
Each such feasibility report shall be consistent with the District's Infrastructure Plan
and include the following:
(i) a detailed description and plans for the infrastructure to be constructed or
acquired;
(ii) a detailed estimation of construction or acquisition costs and operation and
maintenance costs, if any;
4
I
(iii) a benefits analysis;
(iv) a proposed allocation of assessment or taxes and a method of financing the
acquisition or construction of such infrastructure, including any rights-of-way
or improvement sites necessary therefor, and indicating specific portions of
the infrastructure to be constructed or acquired as construction is completed
(a "Completed Segment");
(v) an analysis of the financial feasibility of the financing method designated,
specifying the type of bonds and,proposed repayment method; and
(vi) a designation of the public or private entity to which such improvements will
be dedicated or conveyed for continued operation and maintenance, and the
timing of such dedication or conveyance.
Unless otherwise agreed by the Developer, the District shall not accept any
feasibility report that has not been prepared by the Developer or by a
qualified independent person or firm at the request of the Developer. As
soon as reasonably possible after receiving the feasibility report, the Districts
Board of Directors shall consider and eith ' er approve the feasibility report as
provided by the CFD Act or, acting in good faith, reject the feasibility report
based upon an independent financial analysis or engineering study stating in
reasonable detail that the proposed financing or the engineering design of the
infrastructure improvements to be constructed or acquired is not feasible. If
the District's Board of Directors approves the feasibility report, the District
shall either acquire the infrastructure described therein in Completed
Segments together with the sites and rights-of-way therefor from the
Dev eloper pursuant to subparagraph (c) below or cause the infrastructure
therein to be constructed by the District pursuant to subparagraph (d) below.
(c) Acquisition of District Infrastructure Improvements by the District. The Developer
may at any time construct or cause to be constructed any part or all of the District
Infrastructure Improvements consistent with the District Infrastructure Plan. All
such construction by the Developer shall be performed in a good and workmanlike
manner and in compliance with all applicable permit requirements, standards '
codes, rules and regulations of any applicable governmental entity or agency
thereof. Upon the District's approval of the feasibility report therefor, and based
upon a satisfactory inspection by the District of a Completed Segment which has
been constructed by the Developer, the District shall pay the Developer for the
construction of such improvements in cash, and in an amount equal to the actual
costs and expenses incurred in constructing said infrastructure and for acquiring the
land upon which it is located and any appurtenant rights-of-way, administrative
costs and the "finance cost" associated therewith, up to the maximum amount of the
bond proceeds allocated for such purpose and the applicable feasibility report. The
term "finance cost" as used in this Paragraph shall be deemed to mean (i) the
interest, fees, points and all other amounts charged in connection with any loan or
loans to the Developer for the purpose of acquiring the land and the construction
5
of the District Infrastructure Improvements thereon, or (iii) interest at the rate of
1 % over the prime rate of First Interstate Bank of Arizona, N.A., as that "prime
rate" may be announced from time to time, for a portion of the land acquired or
infrastructure constructed without third-party financing on the amount of the costs
and expenses from the date incurred to the date reimbursed by the District.
Nothing in this Paragraph shall be construed to prohibit or otherwise limit the
ability of the Developer to elect to dedicate property to the District without
consideration by instrument in form and content reasonably acceptable to the
District. Upon completion of the construction of a Completed Segment and receipt
of all payments provided in the District's resolution accepting the construction, the
Developer will convey the Completed Segment, together with the underlying rights-
of-way and sites described in the applicable resolution, to the District, free and
clear of all liens and encumbrances and the District shall promptly accept and
approve the conveyance; provided that the construction of the improvements and
cost of the Completed Segment are consistent with the approved feasibility report
therefor.
(d) Construction of District Infrastructure Improvements by District., If the feasibility
report approved by the District indicates that the District will have responsibility
for the construction of all or any part of the Infrastructure Improvements described
in such feasibility report, the District will publicly bid such construction work;
provided, however, that in accordance with A.R.S. 480709(H) the Developer shall
have the right to match the lowest bid for the construction of such Infrastructure
Improvements, so long as the Developer owns at least 75% of the total land area
within the real property included within the District at the time of the bid. The
District shall thereafter enter into a construction agreement with the lowest bidder
or the Developer, if the Developer is the lowest bidder or matches the lowest bid,
for the construction of the infrastructure improvements described in the feasibility
report. In the event the District determines that a construction manager is necessary
to oversee the construction of such improvements, such construction manager shall
be mutually-acceptable to the District and the Developer. After the construction
agreement is executed, the District shall, as described in the approved feasibility
report, proceed to acquire any rights-of-way or improvement sites not previously
dedicated,and require the construction of the District Infrastructure Improvements
described in the construction agreement to commence as soon as reasonably possible
thereafter. The District shall require that all such construction or other work to be
performed pursuant hereto be performed in conformity with the District
Infrastructure Plan as described in the applicable feasibility report, and in a good
and workmanlike manner in compliance with all applicable standards, codes, rules
or regulations of any applicable governmental entity or agency thereof.
(e) Operation and Maintenance. Upon the acquisition or construction by the district of
Infrastructure Improvements in accordance with the applicable feasibility report
therefor, the District shall own, operate and maintain in good order, condition and
repair at all times, such District Infrastructure Improvements and related facilities
until an agreement is entered into by the District with a Responsible Party (as
described in Paragraph 1.4 below) to transfer the ownership, operation and
6
maintenance of the District Infrastructure Improvements, as described in the District
Infrastructure Plan, and the applicable feasibility report therefor. The District shall
contract to obtain labor, materials and equipment for the operation and maintenance
of such improvements, and such contracts shall be awarded to a company or
companies acceptable to the District at reasonable rates. Any such service contracts
shall require that such work and service be performed in a good and workmanlike
manner and in compliance with all federal, state and local statutes, laws,
regulations, codes and ordinances. The District shall pay, either from applicable
revenues or by levy of additional taxes as provided by the CFD Act, all costs,
expenses and fees incurred in connection with such operation and maintenance as
provided in an annual budget therefor, which shall include anticipated rates, charges
and fees of the District, and which shall be prepared for each fiscal year during the
term of the Agreement.
1.3 Other Financing Methods. Upon the Developer's request the Town agrees to exercise
good faith and use best efforts to* promptly form one or more improvement districts, municipal property
corporations, or industrial development authorities or to implement other sources of development
financing for the purpose of financing the cost of construction and maintenance of any or all of the
Infrastructure Improvements, including without limitation, sewer, drainage, bridge, roadway, flood
control and recreational improvements, and whether or not the construction of such improvements is
the responsibility of the Developer or a community facilities district formed pursuant hereto.
1.4 Dedication of Infrastructure Improvements. Ownership of all completed portions of the
'Infrastructure Improvements shall be dedicated by the -person or entity responsible for payment of
construction of such improvements (the "Constructing Party") to the Town or other appropriate public
or private entity as set forth in the Infrastructure Plan (the "Responsible Party"). By instrument in form
and content acceptable to the. Constructing Party and the Responsible Party within one (1) year after
completion of any portion of the Infrastructure Improvements in accordance with the Infrastructure Plan,
or within such other time period as may be agreed to by the Constructing Party and the Responsible
Party, and subject to acceptance by the Responsible Party as hereinafter set forth. So long as such
Infrastructure Improvements are constructed in accordance with plans and specifications approved by
the Responsible Party, as verified by inspection of the completed improvements by the engineer or other
designated representative of the Responsible Party, the Responsible Party shall immediately thereafter
accept such dedication of Infrastructure Improvements, and shall, at its own cost and expense, maintain,
repair and operate such Infrastructure Improvements in accordance with its customary standards. Except
as provided herein, ownership of all Infrastructure Improvements constructed by the Developer shall
be maintained and operated by the Developer so long as the Developer owns the Infrastructure
Improvements and prior to the dedication of such improvements to the Responsible Party.

Town shall undertake to perform all necessary acts and procedures necessary to annex the property into
7
the corporate boundaries of the Town, including without limitation, approval of an annexation ordinance
at the next available meeting of the Town Council.
2.2 Applicable Zoning. Having held appropriate public hearings thereon, and having duly
considered such matter, concurrently with the Town's approval of an appropriate ordinance annexing

are identical or substantially similar to the existing zoning classifications in the Town copies of which
are attached hereto as Exhibit "D" (hereinafter referred to as the "Zoning"). All Zoning with respect
to the Property shall be deemed to be "vested" at such time as the Property is annexed to the Town in

Property. The Town agrees that no application fees, filing fees or processing costs shall be charged
by the Town to the Developer in connection with the adoption of the Zoning with respect to and upon

accordance with the Development Plan, as may be amended from time to time. Upon the approval of
the Development Plan by the Town, the Developer shall be authorized to implement the uses, densities
and intensities set forth in the Development Plan, and will be accorded all approvals necessary to the
Town's review and approvals of rezoning applications, site plans and specifications. The Town and the

consistent with, the Development Plan. The Town's failure to timely approve any permits, plans,
specifications, plats, rezoning, or other matters necessary to permit the Developer or any user or builder
within the Property to implement the Development Plan shall be a breach of this Agreement. If and
when the parties find that changes or adjustments are necessary or appropriate to be made to the
Development Plan, they shall, unless otherwise required by law, effectuate such changes or adjustments
through administrative amendments approved by the Town's Director of Planning and Zoning, which,
after execution, shall be attached hereto as an addendum and become a part hereof, and may be further
changed and amended from time to time as necessary, with the approval of the Town and the
Developer. Unless otherwise required by law, no such administrative amendments shall require prior
notice or hearing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following matters shall not be considered
administrative changes or amendments, but shall be considered substantive amendments which shall be
reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission and approved by the Town Council:
(i) Alteration of the permitted uses of the Property;
8
(ii) Increase in the density or number of dwelling units;
(iii) Increase in the maximum height and size of permitted buildings; and,
(iv) Deletion of a requirement for the reservation or dedication of land for public
purposes, except for minor boundary adjustments approved by the Planning
and Zoning Director.

Development Plan except at the request of the Developer or the then-owner of any portion of the
Property for which such zoning change is sought.

and official policies governing permitted uses of the Property, the density and intensity of use of the
Property, the maximum height and size of proposed buildings in the design, improvement and
construction standard and specifications applicable to development of the Property are those rules,
regulations and official policies in force as of the date of this Agreement, and the Town shall not impose
or enact any additional conditions, exactions, dedications, development fees, rules or regulations
applicable to or governing the development of the Property, except only as set forth in exhibit "C" and
as follows:
(i) future land use rules, regulations and official policies of the Town which are
consistent with and not contrary to the existing land use regulations applicable
to and governing the development of the Property, or contrary land use

contemplates and provides for the phasing of the development of the Property and no moratorium or
future ordinance, resolution or other land use rule or regulation or limitation on the conditioning, rate '
timing or sequencing of the development of the Property or any portion thereof shall apply to or govern
the development of the Property during the term hereof, whether affecting parcel or subdivision maps,
building permits, occupancy permits or other entitlements to use issued or granted by the Town, except
as otherwise provided in this Agreement, and except for any ordinance, resolution or regulation enacted
by the Town after the date of this Agreement as may be necessary to (i) comply with any state or

Agreement is acknowledged by the parties hereto to be consistent with the Town's General Plan and
operate to the benefit of the Town, the Developer and the general public.
C. Arizona Revised Statutes 9-500.05 authorizes the Town to enter into binding development
agreements with landowners or other persons or entities having an interest in real property located in
the Town. The Town and the Developer are entering into this Agreement pursuant to the provisions
of A.R.S. 9-500.05 in order to facilitate development of the Property, to avoid waste of resources and
escalation in the cost of housing and other development to the consumers thereof and to encourage
investment in and commitment to comprehensive planning which will make maximum efficient
utilization of resources at the least economic cost to the public, by providing for, among other things,
conditions, terms, restrictions and requirements for the construction of public infrastructure as more
particularly described herein, and the financing for such public infrastructure improvements; certainty
and the approvals necessary for the development of the Property, including land uses, densities and
intensities; and by providing assurances to the Developer that it may proceed with development of the
Property in accordance with the Town's existing land use policies, rules and regulations.
D. The Developer intends to develop the Property as a large scale, mixed use development for
the uses and purposes set forth in the Development Plan for the Property, which has been prepared and
filed with the Town prior to the date of this Agreement and which has been approved by the Town.
A copy of the plan is attached hereto as Exhibit "B" and incorporated herein by this reference
(hereinafter referred to as the "Development Plan"). The development of the Property requires
substantial early and major capital expenditures and investments with respect to the construction of
major infrastructure facilities. Because development of the Property is a project of such great
magnitude, the Developer requires assurances from the Town that the Developer will be able to
complete development of the Property pursuant to the Development Plan before it will expend
substantial efforts and costs in such development. The Town, in order to encourage development of
the Property consistent with the General Plan of the Town, has approved the proposed uses set forth
in the Development Plan and adopted with zoning classifications, land uses, and densities and intensities
consistent with the Development Plan, and agrees to coope ' rate in good faith with the Developer to
expedite the approval and granting of permits, site plans, rezoning applications, plats and other
development approvals for the Property in accordance with the Town's General Plan, the Development
Plan and this Agreement. In reliance on the Town's execution of this Agreement and its agreement and
representations that it will approve the development of the Property in accordance with the Development
Plan (which reliance is acknowledged to be reasonable), the Developer intends to (i) expend substantial
effort and incur substantial costs in proceeding to refine the Development Plan, which costs include,
but are not limited to, costs for performing marketing, infrastructure and feasibility studies; (ii) develop
land use planning, architectural, engineering and landscaping designs and plans, (iii) pursue, in
accordance with this Agreement, the development of the Property.
E. The Town acknowledges and agrees that the development of the Property pursuant to this
Agreement will result in significant planning and economic benefits to the Town and its residents by
(i) requiring the development of the Property to be consistent with the Development Plan, (ii) increasing
tax and other revenues to the Town based upon, among other things, the construction of improvements
on the Property and the use of the Property for business purposes, and (iii) creating jobs through
development of the Property and through the operation of new businesses on the Property. The Town
has determined that entering into this Agreement will further the goals and objectives of the Town's
general plan and its overall land use planning policies by eliminating uncertainty and planning for the
orderly development of the Property so that adequate long term plans regarding the necessary on-site
and off-site infrastructure for the existing and future Town residents can be developed and implemented,
and the maximum effective utilization of Town resources will be pursued at the least economic cost to
its citizens. The benefits conferred by the Developer herein will facilitate the installation of certain
desired public improvements within the Tow ' n, which will significantly promote the health, safety and
general welfare of existing future Town residents. In exchange for these benefits to the Town and its
residents, the Developer shall receive the assurances authorized by Arizona law that the Developer may
proceed to develop the Property in accordance with the Town's existing land use ordinances, policies,
procedures and regulations, at a rate of development within its discretion, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement.
F. The Town's planning and zoning commission and council have found and determined that
this Agreement: (i) is consistent with the Town's General Plan; (ii) is in the best interests of the health,
safety and general welfare of the Town, its residents and the general public; (iii) is entered into pursuant
to and constitutes a present exercise of the police power by the Town; and (iv) is entered into pursuant
to and in compliance with the requirements of Arizona Revised Statutes 9-500.05. The assurances
provided by the Town and Developer to each other herein have been provided pursuant to and as
contemplated by Arizona statute, bargained and in consideration for the undertaking of the obligations
of the parties as set forth herein, and are intended to be and have been relied upon by the parties to their
detriment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual promises and
agreements set forth herein, the parties hereto state, confirm and agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
I. CONSTRUCTION AND FINANCING OF INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS.
The parties acknowledge that the Property pursuant to the Development Plan will require the
construction and installation of infrastructure improvements, such as streets, sewer, bank stabilization,
water lines and other improvements as described in the Development Plan (collectively, the
"Infrastructure Improvements"). The cost of construction of the Infrastructure Improvements may be
paid for by the Developer, by a community facilities district formed to construct or acquire such
improvements in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth, by such other means as set forth
below or by such other means as may be agreed to by the parties.
1.1 Developer. The Developer shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time after
execution of this Agreement, to construct or cause to be constructed and installed any part or all of the
Infrastructure Improvements necessary for implementation and. acquisition of effluent storage,
distribution facilities and other improvements necessary to fully develop the Property in conformance
with the outline of such improvements attached hereto as Exhibit "C" (the "District Infrastructure
Improvement Outline). All such construction, if performed by Developer, shall be performed in a good
and workmanlike manner and in compliance with all applicable laws, permit requirements, standards,
codes, rules or regulations of the Town and of the State of Arizona, or the United States, as applicable,
and in accordance with a map of dedication therefor, which has been filed with and approved by the
appropriate governmental authorities. The Developer, its agents and employees, shall have the right
to use any existing Town easeffi ents or rights-of-way to the extent reasonably necessary to facilitate such
construction, and the Town shall duly execute and record all documents or instruments which may be
necessary in accordance therewith. In addition, in the event any additional easements or rights-of-way
are necessary in order to construct or install any part or all of the Infrastructure Improvements, and
such easements or rights-of-way cannot be acquired by the Developer at a cost which Developer deems
reasonable, the Town shall initiate and diligently pursue condemnation of any real property necessary
for such easements or rights-of-way, as determined to be necessary by the Developer and the Town.
The Developer shall pay all costs incurred by the Town in connection with the condemnation of such
real property, including the full amount of any condemnation award assessed against the Town and in
favor of the person or entity whose property is condemned. Upon completion of any acquisition or
condemnation under this paragraph, title to the land shall vest in the Town, and the Town shall provide
such easements and rights-of-way (and execute and record all necessary documents and instruments)
which may be necessary in connection with the construction of the Infrastructure Improvements by the
Developer.
1.2 Communitv Facilities District. The Town hereby agrees to cooperate with the Developer
in forming a Community Facilities District (the "District") pursuant to A.R.S. 48.701 et ?Leq (the "CFD
Act") for the purpose of funding the construction or acquisition of those Infrastructure Improvements
(which may include Infrastructure Improvements to be acquired from the Developer). Upon receipt of
a petition filed in connection with the formation of the District signed by 100% of the owners of the
3
land within the proposed District, the Town shall approve an appropriate resolution for the formation
of the District. In the event the Developer does not obtain the signatures of 100% of the owners of the
land within the proposed District but obtains at least 25 % of the required signatures, the Town and the
Developer shall work together to obtain the number of signatures required to form the District. Upon
formation of the District, the District shall declare its intent and commit to issue its bonds, in one or
more series (hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Bonds"), pursuant to the CFD Act, in amounts
necessary and sufficient for the construction or acquisition of the District Infrastructure Improvements
and all expenses of which may, if allowed by law, be paid out of the proceeds received from the sale
of the Bonds. Upon the submission by the Developer to the Town of a valid and sufficient petition for
the formation of any other community facilities district in Addition to the District, the Town agrees to
exercise good faith and use best efforts to expedite the formation of such district pursuant to the
provisions of the CFD Act, all provisions of this Paragraph 1.2 relating to the operation of the District
shall apply thereto.
1.2.1 Board of Directors of the District. The initial Board of Directors of the District shall be
those individuals appointed to such positions as agreed to by the Town and the Developer and identified
in the District Resolution. In the event of a vacancy occurring on the expiration of the term of an
appointed board member of the District upon the death, resignation or inability of a board member to
discharge the duties of such office, the District shall notify the Developer of such vacancy and give the
Developer a reasonable opportunity to recommend candidates for appointment to fill the vacancy and
to advise and consult with the Town in connection therewith. After considering the general
qualifications of any candidates recommended by the Developer, the Town shall promptly appoint a new
or interim District board member as the case may be.
1.2.2 Operation of District. The following provisions shall apply to the operation of the District
and any other community facilities district formed pursuant to Paragraph 1.2 of this Agreement:
(a) Ratification of Agreement. Upon formation of the District pursuant to this
Agreement, the District shall, in accordance with A.R.S. 9-500.05, be deemed to
be a party to this Agreement, and at the first meeting of the Board of Directors of
the District, the Board of Directors shall ratify this Agreement.
(b) Feasibilily Rgports. Prior to the construction or acquisition of any District
Infrastructure Improvements by the District, the District's Board of Directors shall,
in accordance with the CFD Act, approve a feasibility report, which report shall be
prepared by the Developer or any independent qualified person or firm selected by
Developer on behalf of the District. The cost of such feasibility report shall be
bome by the Developer, but shall, so long as bonds are sold by the District, be
reimbursed by the District in accordance with the applicable feasibility report.
Each such feasibility report shall be consistent with the District's Infrastructure Plan
and include the following:
(i) a detailed description and plans for the infrastructure to be constructed or
acquired;
(ii) a detailed estimation of construction or acquisition costs and operation and
maintenance costs, if any;
4
(iii) a benefits analysis;
(iv) a proposed allocation of assessment or taxes and a method of financing the
acquisition or construction of such infrastructure, including any rights-of-way
or improvement sites necessary therefor, and indicating specific portions of
the infrastructure to be constructed or acquired as construction is completed
(a "Completed Segment");
(v) an analysis of the financial feasibility of the financing method designated,
specifying the type of bonds and proposed repayment method; and
(vi) a designation of the public or private entity to which such improvements will
be dedicated or conveyed for continued operation and maintenance, and the
timing of such dedication or conveyance.
Unless otherwise agreed by the Developer, the District shall not accept any
feasibility report that has not been prepared by the Developer or by a
qualified independent person or firm at the request of the Developer. As
soon as reasonably possible after receiving the feasibility report, the Districts
Board of Directors shall consider and eith ' er approve the feasibility report as
provided by the CFD Act or, acting in good faith, reject the feasibility report
based upon an independent financial analysis or engineering study stating in
reasonable detail that the proposed financing or the engineering design of the
infrastructure improvements to be constructed or acquired is not feasible. If
the District's Board of Directors approves the feasibility report, the District
shall either acquire the infrastructure described therein in Completed
Segments together with the sites and rights-of-way therefor from the
Dev eloper pursuant to subparagraph (c) below or cause the infrastructure
therein to be constructed by the District pursuant to subparagraph (d) below.
(c) Acquisition of District Infrastructure Improvements by the District. The Developer
may at any time construct or cause to be constructed any part or all of the District
Infrastructure Improvements consistent with the District Infrastructure Plan. All
such construction by the Developer shall be performed in a good and workmanlike
manner and in compliance with all applicable permit requirements, standards,
codes, rules and regulations of any applicable governmental entity or agency
thereof. Upon the District's approval of the feasibility report therefor, and based
upon a satisfactory inspection by the District of a Completed Segment which has
been constructed by the Developer, the District shall pay the Developer for the
construction of such improvements in cash, and in an amount equal to the actual
costs and expenses incurred in constructing said infrastructure and for acquiring the
land upon which it is located and any appurtenant rights-of-way, administrative
costs and the "finance cost" associated therewith, up to the maximum amount of the
bond proceeds allocated for such purpose and the applicable feasibility report. The
term "finance cost" as used in this Paragraph shall be deemed to mean (i) the
interest, fees, points and all other amounts charged in connection with any loan or
loans to the Developer for the purpose of acquiring the land and the construction
5
of the District Infrastructure Improvements thereon, or (iii) interest at the rate of
1 % over the prime rate of First Interstate Bank of Arizona, N.A., as that "prime
rate" may be announced from time to time, for a portion of the land acquired or
infrastructure constructed without third-party financing on the amount of the costs
and expenses from the date incurred to the date reimbursed by the District.
Nothing in this Paragraph shall be construed to prohibit or otherwise limit the
ability of the Developer to elect to dedicate property to the District without
consideration by instrument in form and content reasonably acceptable to the
District. Upon completion of the construction of a Completed Segment and receipt
of all payments provided in the District's resolution accepting the construction, the
Developer will convey the Completed Segment, together with the underlying rights-
of-way and sites described in the applicable resolution, to the District, free and
clear of all liens and encumbrances and the District shall promptly accept and
approve the conveyance; provided that the construction of the improvements and
cost of the Completed Segment are consistent with the approved feasibility report
therefor.
(d) Construction of District Infrastructure Improvements by District.. If the feasibility
report approved by the District indicates that the District will have responsibility
for the construction of all or any part of the Infrastructure Improvements described
in such feasibility report, the District will publicly bid such construction work;
provided, however, that in accordance with A.R.S. 480709(H) the Developer shall
have the right to match the lowest bid for the construction of such Infrastructure
Improvements, so long as the Developer owns at least 75% of the total land area
within the real property included within the District at the time of the bid. The
District shall thereafter enter into a construction agreement with the lowest bidder
or the Developer, if the Developer is the lowest bidder or matches the lowest bid,
for the construction of the infrastructure improvements described in the feasibility
report. In the event the District determines that a construction manager is necessary
to oversee the construction of such improvements, such construction manager shall
be mutually-acceptable to the District and the Developer. After the construction
agreement is executed, the District shall, as described in the approved feasibility
report, proceed to acquire any rights-of-way or improvement sites not previously
dedicated,and require the construction of the District Infrastructure Improvements
described in the construction agreement to commence as soon as reasonably possible
thereafter. The District shall require that all such construction or other work to be
performed pursuant hereto be performed in conformity with the District
Infrastructure Plan as described in the applicable feasibility report, and in a good
and workmanlike manner in compliance with all applicable standards, codes, rules
or regulations of any applicable governmental entity or agency thereof.
(e) Operation and Maintenance. Upon the acquisition or construction by the district of
Infrastructure Improvements in accordance with the applicable feasibility report
therefor, the District shall own, operate and maintain in good order, condition and
repair at all times, such District Infrastructure Improvements and related facilities
until an agreement is entered into by the District with a Responsible Party (as
described in Paragraph 1.4 below) to transfer the ownership, operation and
6
maintenance of the District Infrastructure Improvements, as described in the District
Infrastructure Plan, and the applicable feasibility report therefor. The District shall
contract to obtain labor, materials and equipment for the operation and maintenance
of such improvements, and such contracts shall be awarded to a company or
companies acceptable to the District at reasonable rates. Any such service contracts
shall require that such work and service be performed in a good and workmanlike
manner and in compliance with all federal, state and local statutes, laws,
regulations, codes and ordinances. The District shall pay, either from applicable
revenues or by levy of additional taxes as provided by the CFD Act, all costs,
expenses and fees incurred in connection with such operation and maintenance as
provided in an annual budget therefor, which shall include anticipated rates, charges
and fees of the District, and which shall be prepared for each fiscal year during the
term of the Agreement.
1.3 Other Financing Methods. Upon the Developer's request the Town agrees to exercise
good faith and use best efforts to promptly form one or more improvement districts, municipal property
corporations, or industrial development authorities or to implement other sources of - development
financing for the purpose of financing the cost of construction and maintenance of any or all of the
Infrastructure Improvements, including without limitation, sewer, drainage, bridge, roadway, flood
control and recreational improvements, and whether or not the construction of such improvements is
the responsibility of the Developer or a community facilities district formed pursuant hereto.
1.4 Dedication of Infrastructure Improvements. Ownership of all completed portions of the
Infrastructure Improvements shall be dedicated by the -person or entity responsible for payment of
construction of such improvements (the "Constructing Party") to the Town or other appropriate public
or private entity as set forth in the Infrastructure Plan (the "Responsible Party"). By instrument in form
and content acceptable to the. Constructing Party and the Responsible Party within one (1) year after
completion of any portion of the Infrastructure Improvements in accordance with the Infrastructure Plan,
or within such other time period as may be agreed to by the Constructing Party and the Responsible
Party, and subject to acceptance by the Responsible Party as hereinafter set forth. So long as such
Infrastructure Improvements are constructed in accordance with plans and specifications approved by
the Responsible Party, as verified by inspection of the completed improvements by the engineer or other
designated representative of the Responsible Party, the Responsible Party shall immediately thereafter
accept such dedication of Infrastructure Improvements, and shall, at its own cost and expense, maintain,
repair and operate such Infrastructure Improvements in accordance with its customary standards. Except
as provided herein, ownership of all Infrastructure Improvements constructed by the Developer shall
be maintained and operated by the Developer so long as the Developer owns the Infrastructure
Improvements and prior to the dedication of such improvements to the Responsible Party.

Town shall undertake to perform all necessary acts and procedures necessary to annex the property into
7
the corporate boundaries of the Town, including without limitation, approval of an annexation ordinance
at the next available meeting of the Town Council.
2.2 Applicable Zoning. Having held appropriate public hearings thereon, and having duly
considered such matter, concurrently with the Town's approval of an appropriate ordinance annexing
the Property to the Town, the Town agrees to adopt the zoning classifications for the Property which
are identical or substantially similar to the existing zoning classifications in the Town copies of which
are attached hereto as Exhibit "D" (hereinafter referred to as the "Zoning"). All Zoning with respect
to the Property shall be deemed to be "vested" at such time as the Property is annexed to the Town in
accordance with Paragraph 2.1 above and the approval by the Town of the Development Plan for the
Property. The Town agrees that no application fees, filing fees or processing costs shall be charged
by the Town to the Developer in connection with the adoption of the Zoning with respect to and upon
annexation of the Property other than the annexation fee, and the specific plan review fee.
III. DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROPERTY

the annexation of the Property, and upon the Town's review and due consideration, the Town hereby
approves the Development Plan for the development of the Property, a copy of which is attached hereto
as Exhibit "B". Upon such approval, the Development Plan shall be? incorporated into and become part

consistent with, the Development Plan. The Town's failure to timely approve any permits, plans,
specifications, plats, rezoning, or other matters necessary to permit the Developer or any user or builder
within the Property to implement the Development Plan shall be a breach of this Agreement. If and
when the parties find that changes or adjustments are necessary or appropriate to be made to the
Development Plan, they shall, unless otherwise required by law, effectuate such changes or adjustments
through administrative amendments approved by the Town's Director of Planning and Zoning, which,
after execution, shall be attached hereto as an addendum and become a part hereof, and may be fur-ther
changed and amended from time to time as necessary, with the approval of the Town and the
Developer. Unless otherwise required by law, no such administrative amendments shall require prior
notice or hearing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following matters shall not be considered
administrative changes or amendments, but shall be considered substantive amendments which shall be
reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission and approved by the Town Council:
(i) Alteration of the permitted uses of the Property;
8
(ii) Increase in the density or number of dwelling units;
(iii) Increase in the maximum height and size of permitted buildings; and,
(iv) Deletion of a requirement for the reservation or dedication of land for public
purposes, except for minor boundary adjustments approved by the Planning
and Zoning Director.
During the term of this Agreement, the Town shall not initiate any changes or modifications to the
Development Plan except at the request of the Developer' or the then-owner of any portion of the
Property for which such zoning change is sought.

and official policies governing permitted uses of the Property, the density and intensity of use of the
Property, the maximum height and size of proposed buildings in the design, improvement and
construction standard and specifications applicable to development of the Property are those rules,
regulations and official policies in force as of the date of this Agreement, and the Town shall not impose
or enact any additional conditions, exactions, dedications, development fees, rules or regulations
applicable to or governing the development of the Property, except only as set forth in exhibit "C" and
as follows:
(i) future land use rules, regulations and official policies of the Town which are
consistent with and not contrary to the existing land.use regulations applicable
to and governing the development of the Property, or contrary land use

9
3.3 Ko-ratorium. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the Development Plan
contemplates and provides for the phasing of the development of the Property and no moratorium or
future ordinance, resolution or other land use rule or regulation or limitation on the conditioning, rate,
timing or sequencing of the development of the Property or any portion thereof shall apply to or govern
the development of the Property during the term hereof, whether affecting parcel or subdivision maps,
building permits, occupancy permits or other entitlements to use issued or granted by the Town, except
as otherwise provided in this Agreement, and except for any ordinance, resolution or regulation enacted
by the Town after the date of this Agreement as may be necessary to (i) comply with any state or

provisions of this Agreement shall be modified as may be necessary in order to comply with such state
or federal law or regulation, or (ii) alleviate or otherwise contain a legitimate, bona fide threat to the
health or safety of the public, in which event any ordinance, rule or regulation to be imposed in an
effort to contain or alleviate such threat may be imposed only after public hearing and comment and
shall not, in any event be imposed arbitrarily. In the event of any such moratorium, future ordinance,
resolution or rule and regulation, unless taken by the Town to comply with state or federal laws or to
alleviate a legitimate, bona fi& threat to public health or safety, the Developer shall continue to be

the parties on any issues affecting the development of the Property, the Town and the Developer shall
cooperate in good faith to resolve the dispute between themselves, and such disputes shall be discussed
and attempted to be resolved through their representatives pursuant to Paragraph 4. 1 above. If the issue
