NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and obligations herein, the City and Developer agree as follows: SECTION 1. Developer Participation 1.01 Developer shall, on or before October 1, 2004, either (i) pay in cash the Estimated Amount, as defined in Section 1.03, below, regarding Developer's share of the Milwaukee Project (as defined below) to City, or (ii) submit an Irrevocable Letter of Credit, issued by a bank, as defined by Section 31.002 of the Texas Finance Code, that maintains its home office or branch banking location wherein said Irrevocable Letter of Credit may be presented for honor in Lubbock, Texas, in the amount of the Estimated Amount, as described in Section 1.03, payable conditioned upon presentment and no other conditions, containing at least a three (3) year effective term and otherwise suitable in form to the City, to secure its obligations under this Agreement, said funds to be used for the street paving, drainage, water and sewer construction of Milwaukee Avenue, as set forth in Section 1.03, below. The description of the project, as set forth herein, is depicted on Exhibit "A", attached hereto (the "Milwaukee Project"). The City, in the event Developer shall tender the cash payment as contemplated by this Section 1.01, shall place such funds in escrow, in Milwaukee Paving Project Agreement Page 2 of 15 the event an Escrow Account may be established on or before the time set forth in Section 1.04, below, as provided in and subject to Section 1.06, below. 1.02 Developer shall dedicate to City, on or before March 1, 2005, at no cost to the City, all lands and real property interests necessary, as determined by City, for the paving and drainage, water, sewer and street lighting construction of the Milwaukee Project. City shall provide to Developer a description of such lands necessary for the Milwaukee Project on or before February 1, 2005. 1.03 The City has determined an estimate of the cost of Developer's share of the Milwaukee Project, said estimate being the sum of Three Hundred Twenty Six Thousand Nine Hundred Twenty -Three Dollars ($326,923) (the `Estimated Amount"). The Estimated Amount includes fifty percent (50%) of the difference between (i) estimated paving costs, if concrete paving is utilized; and (ii) estimated paving costs, if asphalt paving is utilized. A schedule depicting the items of the Milwaukee Project and estimated costs thereof is attached hereto as Exhibit `B". Developer agrees and stipulates to City that the estimate is a reasonable cost for Developer's share of the Milwaukee Project cost. Further, Developer stipulates and agrees that the Estimated Amount is merely an estimate, and that the cost of Developer's share of the Milwaukee Project could be lesser or greater than the Estimated Amount. Developer, notwithstanding the Estimated Amount set forth herein, unconditionally agrees to pay to City Milwaukee Paving Project Agreement Page 3 of 15 the actual bid cost, as determined by the response to the City's request for bids awarded by the City Council of the City of Lubbock and excluding any additional costs associated with change orders to the public works contract, of the Milwaukee Project (the "Actual Bid Cost"). Notwithstanding the unconditional payment obligation of Developer to pay the Actual Bid Cost of the Milwaukee Project, in the event the Actual Bid Cost of the Milwaukee Project is, as set forth in Section 1.04 and Section 1.05, herein, greater than five per cent (5%) of the Estimated Amount, the City and Developer agree to negotiate in good faith the costs in excess of the Estimated Amount. In the event Developer and City cannot agree as to the costs to be paid by Developer for the Milwaukee Project, the City may, at its option, either (i) continue construction activities regarding the Milwaukee Project, in which event the Developer would be obligated to pay to the City or Escrow Agent, the sum of the Estimated Amount plus an additional five percent (5%) of the Estimated Amount; or (ii) abandon the Milwaukee Project, at which time any and all obligations of City and Developer as set forth herein shall terminate and shall be null and void. It is expressly agreed and understood that the City may or may not bid the Milwaukee Project as an asphalt paving project. If it is not bid, the amount utilized for the Estimated Amount computation, as set forth in Table B, Column 3, on Exhibit `B", attached hereto, shall be utilized as the actual costs for such paving method. Milwaukee Paving Project Agreement Page 4 of 15 1.04 The City shall construct the Milwaukee Project in accordance with all applicable laws, and will competitively bid construction of the project where required by applicable law. Developer stipulates and agrees that the City may competitively bid areas of Milwaukee Avenue not located within the areas of the Milwaukee Project. After bids are received and the City staff determines the lowest responsible bidder to be recommended to the City Council for award, City shall notify Developer of the amount of such bid recommended for award (the "Notice of Intended Award"). No later than three (3) days after receipt of the Notice of Intended Award, or ten (10) days prior to the meeting of the City Council wherein the award of the bid is to be considered, whichever is the later to occur, the Developer shall pay to the City or Escrow Agent (as defined in Section 1.06, below) (i) in the event the Developer tendered cash, the difference between the Estimated Amount and the Actual Bid Cost, as described in Section 1.03, above, or (ii) in the event Developer tendered an Irrevocable Letter of Credit, the Actual Bid Cost of the Milwaukee Project, as described in Section 1.03, above. 1.05 In the event the City shall award a bid not recommended to the City Council, as contained within the Notice of Intended Award, and in the event the actual awarded bid is larger than the bid contained within the Notice of Intended Award, Developer shall, within three (3) days after the meeting of the City Council of the City wherein such bid is awarded, submit to the City or Escrow Agent the difference between (1) the amount Milwaukee Paving Project Agreement Page 5 of 15 deposited pursuant to the Notice of Intended Award; and (2) the Actual Bid Cost. Conversely, in the event the actual awarded bid requires a smaller sum than paid by Developer to City pursuant to the Notice of Intended Award, the City shall, within ten (10) days after the meeting of the City Council of the City wherein such bid is awarded, refund or cause the refund of the difference between (1) the amount deposited pursuant to the Notice of the Intended Award; and (2) the Actual Bid Cost. 1.06 In the event an Escrow Agreement may be entered into, as provided herein, any funds received by City from Developer for the Estimated Amount or Actual Bid Cost of the Milwaukee Project, as applicable, subject to the conditions below, shall be placed in an Escrow Account (herein so called) with a bank, as defined by Section 31.002 of the Texas Finance Code (the "Escrow Agent"), to be determined or selected by City in accordance with all applicable laws. The City, Developer and Escrow Agent shall negotiate in good faith to enter into an Escrow Agreement (herein so called) governing the deposit, maintenance and withdrawals of the Escrow Account, and providing (i) that the account bear interest at a rate acceptable to City and Developer; (ii) for fees for all services to be provided by the Escrow Agent or any other party related to the Escrow Account (the "Escrow Fee") acceptable to City and Developer; (iii) that the City may withdraw funds or cause the refund of funds from the Escrow Account conditioned solely upon the request by City for such funds and no other condition; (iv) that the Developer shall be solely Milwaukee Paving Project Agreement Page 6 of 15 responsible for the payment of the Escrow Fee; (v) that the interest earned on the Escrow Account shall be applied first to payment of the Escrow Fee and, if any funds are remaining, remitted to Developer; and (vi) any other terms or provisions required by the City, in its discretion, and otherwise be in form and substance satisfactory to City. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, City may withdraw funds from the Escrow Account at times and in the amounts deemed necessary or advisable by the City related to the Milwaukee Project. No consents, documentations, representations or any other matter, other than the written request of City, by and through its City Manager or his/her delegee, shall be required for disbursement of the requested funds by Escrow Agent. After deposit into the Escrow Account, the Irrevocable Letter of Credit for the benefit of City, as described in Section 1.04, above, if provided in lieu of cash payment, may be released by City. In the event the Irrevocable Letter of Credit shall be dishonored, for any reason, Developer shall tender to City or Escrow Agent on or before the ten (10) days after being given notice of such dishonor, all funds due under this Agreement. It is expressly agreed and understood that entering into an Escrow Agreement requires contractual commitment from parties not subject to this Agreement. Developer and City agree to negotiate in good faith in attempting to enter into an Escrow Agreement as described above. However, in the event a final written Escrow Agreement may not be entered into by Developer, City and Escrow Agent on or before the date Milwaukee Paving Project Agreement Page 7 of 15 set forth for payment by Developer to City or Escrow Agent as provided in Section 1.04, above, Developer shall deposit such funds directly to the City and any term or provision herein allowing payment to City or Escrow Agent shall be deemed amended to provide for payment solely to City.
