Property Owner hereby petitions the City for the initiation of the proceedings for the formation of District which will cause the construction and installation and/or financing of the following improvements (hereinafter "Improvements") which are generally described as follows: a) Rancho Santa Fe Road North Phase 1 (RSF No.1) La Costa Avenue to east of Mahr Reservoir b) Olivenhain Road Widening, and intersection improvements at Olivenhain and El Camino Real c) Rancho Santa Fe Road North Phase 2 (RSF No. 2) Phase 1 End to Melrose Drive. d) Rancho Santa Fe Road South (RSF So.)

The cost of construction, engineering, environmental mitigations, legal and other incidental expenses as set forth in the Improvements Budget will be funded by the District, if formed, or by monies collected by the City for this purpose. 3. Property Owner acknowledges its right to notice of and participation in all phases of formation under the "Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982," expressly waives the proceedings required and all limitations contained in Title 5, Division 2, Chapter 3 Exhibit 2 2.5 of the California Government Code and nonetheless with full knowledge of such rights, completely and forever waives such rights. Specifically, Property Owner hereby consents to the proceedings and waives any right to protest the formation of the District and the ordering of the improvements under applicable California statutes and consent to and support formation of said District with respect to the Project. The City shall exclude the Project from the District boundary map if, prior to the adoption of a Resolution of Intention by the City Council to form said District, Property Owner has entered into this Agreement and has paid to the City all amounts due as described herein. 4. a) Property Owner agrees to pay to City, or provide, its fair share for the Improvements described in Section 1. b) Said payment, or provision, shall be made in the manner described in Exhibit "B", Rate and Method for Determining Fair Share Obligation Rancho Santa Fe and Olivenhain Road, which is incorporated herein by reference. c) The amount of Property Owner's fair share will be conclusively determined by the City Council in the manner described in Exhibit "B" attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. d) Payment by Property Owner of its fair share of improvement costs as determined by City Council and set forth herein will satisfy their obligations for the construction of the Improvements described in Section 1, as required by Condition No. 36 of Planning Commission Resolution No. 6143 and further delineated in the Local Facilities Management Plan, Zone 11, subject to adjustment as described in Section 9 herein. e) Alternatively, if the District is formed and the Project is included within it, Property Owner's obligation to pay its fair share pursuant to the Agreement shall be satisfied upon payment of all taxes imposed, established and payable to said District. 5.

Property Owner hereby waives its right to challenge the amount, establishment or imposition of said fair share and further waive any rights to pay said fair share under protest. 7. This Agreement does not affect, in any way whatsoever, the obligation of Property Owner to pay any other fees or assessments associated with Property Owner's development and/or to post improvement bonds as required by the City Engineer. Nor does this Agreement relieve Property Owner from providing other public facilities required under conditions placed upon tentative map CT 05-13 by the City. 8. Property Owner agrees that payment of its fair share is not a fee and waives any and all rights to notice of or challenges to the establishment or imposition of said fair share as a fee under provisions of Government Code section 66000 et seq.. or any successor or related statutes. 9. a) If the District is formed subsequent to the payment by Property Owner of the fair share pursuant to this Agreement, Property Owner's financial obligation shall be recalculated using the taxing formula established for the District for the Improvements described in Paragraph 1. If that obligation is lower than the amount previously paid or provided by Property Owner to City, City shall refund any excess, in the manner described below. Exhibit 2 b) Any refund shall be made from funds available within District upon District formation and shall not be an obligation of City's General fund or other revenue sources. c) In the event that sufficient funds are not available from District's resources, Property Owner shall be reimbursed, as determined by the City Council, through the payment of one-time taxes or annual undeveloped land taxes to the District. The City is not required to establish an undeveloped land tax within the District to provide such refund. d) No reimbursement is required until the City Council determines that sufficient funds are available. Any refund to Property Owner shall not include interest. e) Any payment received by the City under this Agreement shall be deposited in a special interest bearing fund and may only be used to fund the construction of the facilities described herein. Upon the formation of a CFD to fund these same Improvements, any amount remaining in the special fund may be transferred to the CFD fund, at the discretion of the Finance Director. 10. Upon completion of the Improvements, and recording of the Notice of Completion for the final phase of the Improvements, the City Engineer shall determine the total cost of all phases of the Improvements and all related work (Costs), and the Finance Director shall determine the total amount of revenue including fees, taxes, interest earned on funds restricted to use only on the Improvements, and other sources of funds received by the City dedicated to paying for the construction of the Improvements (Revenues). The Finance Director shall then compare the amount of Costs and Revenues to determine if there are any excess Revenues as described below. If excess Revenues of more than $100,000 exist, the Finance Director shall provide refunds to all eligible parties of all excess Revenues in an amount and in the manner described below. If excess Revenues are equal to, or less than $100,000, the City shall retain these funds in a special fund to be used to finance street repair, maintenance, and landscaping within the Improvements. Exhibit 2 a) The total amount of excess Revenues shall be determined by deducting the amount of the project Costs from the available Revenues. Total project Costs shall include all costs to plan, design, construct, mitigate environmental impacts, inspect, and otherwise complete the project to the satisfaction of the City Engineer, including applicable charges for City staff services. Total Revenues shall include all monies held by the City dedicated exclusively to the construction of the Improvements including any fee revenues earmarked for the Project, CFD #2 taxes, applicable CFD #1 taxes, grants, and interest earned on restricted funds as determined by the Finance Director. b) The amount of the refund due to any party shall be based on the proportion of that party's payments under this Agreement based on its proportional share of Equivalent Dwelling Units constructed or to be constructed by that party, weighted as described in Exhibit B, divided by the total number of EDUs constructed or to be constructed within, and participating in, CFD #2 and/or CFD #2 agreements to prepay taxes. The amount of the refund shall be determined by multiplying the proportional share computed above by the total amount of excess revenues. c) In order to share in the refund of any portion of the excess Revenues, the eligible party must request to be included in the distribution of funds. Such request must be made within 90 days after the City Council's acceptance of the Notice of Completion for the final phase of the Improvements. Each request must be accompanied by documents indicating clear title to the refund unless the request is being made by the party who originally paid the taxes to the City under a prepayment Agreement or to CFD #2. d) The Finance Director shall compute the amount of the refund due each party as described above. Funds may be disbursed to the eligible parties following Council approval of such refunds. Exhibit 2 e) If the City does not receive requests for refund from all eligible parties within the specified period, and all funds cannot be disbursed as provided by this section, any remaining funds shall be held in a special fund to be used to support road and roadway maintenance in and around the Improvements area, as determined to be necessary by the City Engineer, and approved by the City Council. f) As a courtesy to all interested parties, the City will maintain a file of those individuals or companies entitled to a refund, and will mail notices of refund availability to the names and addresses in this file following the City Council's acceptance of the final Notice of Completion. It is the eligible party's responsibility to notify the City if the right to any refunds under this section is assigned to another party, or if there is a change in name or address for the eligible party. The City takes no responsibility for the accuracy of the information included in this file, and is under no obligation to locate persons or entities that are entitled to refunds. Failure to notify any party of the availability of excess Revenues shall not obligate the City in any way to extend or modify the above refund procedures. 11. Compliance with this Agreement will be accepted by City as an alternate to the method described in the current Local Facilities Management Plan for local facilities Management Zone 11 for financing the Improvements described in Paragraph 1. This Agreement does not require City to issue building permits or other development permits or grant approvals or relieve Property Owner of the obligation to comply with all applicable provisions of law, including but not limited to Carlsbad Municipal Code Titles 18, 19, 20 and 21. 12.

The following rate and method shall be used to determine the fair share and amount due from any property owner wishing to take advantage of this alternate funding mechanism. Basis for Cost Allocation The basis for allocation of costs to property conditioned with the financing of the improvements described in the Agreement shall be the Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU), which is defined per product classification as follows: Product Classification Equivalent Dwelling Units Single Family - Detached Units 1.0 EDU Single Family - Attached Units 0.8 EDU Multi-Family Units 0.6 EDU Churches 4.0 EDU per Acre Commercial/Industrial and other 10.0 EDU per Acre The number of each type of unit included in a development shall be determined by the City Engineer based on the most recent final map submitted to the City for approval.

If the City Council determined that the City Engineer's calculation of the number of EDUs included on the final map is in error, the Council shall direct the City Engineer to amend his calculations and direct staff to bring the final map back for approval when such correction has taken place. Funds must be paid to the City before the final map will be scheduled for Council consideration.
