A vacant commercial business space used for storage will not be considered as "another use" for the purposes of this requirement, as long as the property is available and appropriately advertised as available for rent as commercial business space. 5 3.

G. REIMBURSEMENT OF DEVELOPER INCENTIVE AMOUNTS RECEIVED IF CITY IS REQUIRED TO REFUND MONIES DUE TO FILING OF DEVELOPER TAX OBJECTION OR ASSESSMENT APPEAL 1.

Furthermore, the Developer is hereby obligated to provide written notice to the City within five (5) business days of its filing any such objection, assessment challenge or formal appeal to the PTAB or other such action, including any appeals therefrom, that could potentially reduce the assessed value of the Property. Failure to provide such notice shall be considered a breach of this Agreement and shall be cause for the City to deny payments hereunder to the Developer. 2. Any funds withheld by the City under this Section G shall be deposited by it into a separate interest-bearing bank account.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS 1. The Parties agree that the matters set forth in the recitals above are true and correct and form a part of this Agreement. 2. Any terms which are not defined in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as they do in the Act,unless indicated to the contrary. 3. The Developer shall remain in compliance with all municipal ordinances relating to property development,property condition,zoning,subdivision and building codes. Failure to cure the violation of any such ordinance within thirty (30) days upon being provided written notice of the same by the City shall be cause for the City to declare the Developer in Default and unilaterally terminate this Agreement, except where such failure is not reasonably susceptible to cure within such 30-day period,in which case the Developer shall have such additional time to cure as is reasonably necessary, provided that the Developer has commenced such cure within such 30-day period and continues to diligently prosecute the same to completion. 4. The Developer shall complete the Project within twelve (12) months from the date this Agreement is executed, subject to extension due to Force Majeure (defined below). The Project shall be deemed to be complete when: (1) the rehabilitation and reconstruction of the new upper-level residential apartment units of the buildings are complete,(2) the rehabilitation and renovation of the exterior facades,windows and doors have been complete, (3) the City has issued a Certificate of Occupancy for both the upper level residential units and lower level exterior improvements, (4) the Developer has achieved a minimum of Fifty Percent (50%) occupancy of the new upper-level residential apartment units, and (5) the three (3) ground- level commercial businesses continue to remain in operation. 5.

ADOPTION OF TAX INCREMENT FINANCING The City has created a Tax Increment Financing District known as the "Canton 1 - Downtown/5th Avenue TIF District" which includes the Developer's Property. The City has approved certain Redevelopment Project Costs,including the types described in Exhibit"1"for the Developer's Project. C. INCENTIVES In consideration for the Developer purchasing the Property and completing the Project as set forth herein, the City agrees to extend to the Developer the following incentives to assist the Developer's Project: 1. Upon: (1) timely completion of the Project, (2) the City issuing a Certificate of Occupancy for not less than half of the new upper-level residential apartment space, and (3) the Developer 4 having verified a minimum of $30,000 of TIF eligible costs for rehabilitation, repairs and renovations incurred by the Developer for the redevelopment of the Property, the City shall reimburse Developer a single,lump-sum payment of Fifteen Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($15,000.00); then, upon (1) the Developer completing the remainder of the Project and remaining in compliance with applicable City codes, the City shall annually reimburse the Developer Ninety Percent (90%) of the annual incremental "net"increase in real estate tax revenues derived from the Developer's Project. a. All said payments to the Developer by the City shall be reimbursements of the Developer's verified TIF Fligible Project Costs as estimated and set forth in Exhibit "1"attached hereto. Such reimbursements shall be payable pursuant to the terms herein provided and only during the current remaining life of the TIF District(tax year 2027 payable 2028), or upon the Developer's receipt of the maximum, cumulative reimbursement amount of Twenty-One Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($21,000.00),whichever occurs first. b. "Net" real estate tax increment is defined as increases in annual real estate tax increment derived from the Developer's Project after payment of the proportionate amount of administrative fees and costs incurred by the City and payments pursuant to TIF District Intergovernmental Agreements,if any. The Developer's proportionate amount is calculated by dividing the increment generated by the Developer's Project by the total TIF District increment and multiplying the result by such payments of administrative fees and costs and payments pursuant to such TIF District intergovernmental agreements,if any. 2. The Developer agrees to maintain not less than Fifty Percent(50%) occupancy of all TIF- supported residential apartment and commercial business spaces in the building for a period of two (2)years following completion of the Project. Failure to maintain said occupancy may result in Developer incurring the following penalties: a. New upper-level residential apartment units for which the City has herein reimbursed TIF benefits must be used for residential purposes for a period of not less than two (2) years after the original Certificate of Occupancy is issued by the City. If the units are used for any other purpose within this period, the Developer will be required to refund the City Ten Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000)upon receiving written notice of default by the City.A vacant residential apartment unit used for storage will not be considered as "another use" for the purposes of this requirement, as long as the property is available and appropriately advertised as available for rent. b. Ground-level commercial space for which the City has herein reimbursed TIF benefits must be used for commercial business purposes for a period of not less than two (2) years after completion of the Project. If the ground-level commercial business space becomes vacant or is used for any other purpose within this period, future TIF reimbursements pursuant to Section "C(1)(B)"above shall cease and Developer will be required to refund the City Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000) upon receiving written notice of default by the City. A vacant commercial business space used for storage will not be considered as "another use" for the purposes of this requirement, as long as the property is available and appropriately advertised as available for rent as commercial business space. 5 3. Reimbursement of real estate tax increment to the Developer by the City as described in this Section "C"shall be conditioned upon the Developer providing information pursuant to Section "E"and Section "F"below. D. LIMITATION OF INCENTIVES TO DEVELOPER 1.

The parties may add additional phases and eligible project in excess of the amount authorized by this Agreement upon mutual agreement. 2. It is not contemplated nor is the City obligated to use any of its proportionate share of the monies for any of the Developer's Eligible Project Costs but,rather,the City shall use its sums for any purpose under the Act as it may in its sole discretion determine. 3. The Developer agrees to substantially complete the project, subject to Force Majeure, as defined below. E. PAYMENT OF ELIGIBLE PROJECT COSTS 1. Payment to the Developer for TIF Eligible Project Costs as set forth by the Act,shall be made by a Requisition for Payment of Private Development Redevelopment Costs (Exhibit "2", "Requisition") submitted from time to time by the Developer to the City's TIF Administrator Jacob &Klein,Ltd.,with copy to The Economic Development Group,Ltd.

All Requisitions must be accompanied by verified bills or statements of suppliers,contractors or professionals together with mechanic's lien waivers (whether partial or full) from each of the parties entitled to a payment that is the subject of the Requisition as required by the City. 3. For the Developer to receive reimbursement of Eligible Project Costs for costs it has incurred in any year as set forth in Paragraphs "1"and"2"above,the Developer must submit such proposed eligible costs to the City by March 1 of the following year. If there are no accumulated outstanding costs previously submitted and approved by the City and if the Developer does not submit such proposed eligible costs by this deadline, the Developer will forfeit reimbursement of such costs from the prior year's real estate tax increment to be paid in the current year. Any approved eligible costs submitted after this deadline will be eligible for reimbursement from the next year's real estate increment receipts. 4. Any real estate increment not required to be paid to the Developer under the terms of Paragraph "3"above shall be available to the City for any purpose set forth in the TIF Plan and allowed by the Act. 5. The Developer shall use such sums as reimbursement for Eligible Project Costs only to the extent permitted by law and the Act and may allocate such funds for any purpose for the terms of this Agreement or the term of the TIF District whichever is longer. 6 6. The Administrator shall approve or disapprove a Requisition by written receipt to the Developer within thirty (30) business days after receipt of the Requisition. Approval of the Requisition will not be unreasonably withheld. If a Requisition is disapproved by the Administrator,the reasons for disallowance will be set forth in writing and the Developer may resubmit the Requisition with such additional information as may be required and the same procedures set forth herein shall apply to such re-submittals. 7. All TIF Eligible Project Costs approved shall then be paid by the City from the Special Account to the Developer, or to others as directed by the Developer, pursuant to the Redevelopment Plan and as allowed by Illinois Law. The City shall pay such approved eligible Costs annually, provided the Developer has satisfied the terms of this Agreement and costs which exceed the amount available to pay the Developer shall carry forward, until paid, without further action of the Developer. Payment shall be made within forty-five (45) days after approval subject to the terms if this Agreement and after receipt of the increment generated by the Developer's Redevelopment Project from the County. 8. The Parties acknowledge that the determination of Eligible Project Costs, and, therefore, qualification for reimbursement hereunder are subject to changes or interpretation made by amendments to the Act,administrative rules or judicial interpretation during the term of this Agreement.The City has no obligation to the Developer to attempt to modify those decisions but will assist the Developer in every respect as to obtaining approval of Eligible Project Costs. F. ANNUAL VERIFICATION OF TAX INCREMENT AND JOBS CREATED 1. It shall be the sole responsibility of the Developer, or its designee,to annually provide to the City,as requested in writing,'copies of all PAID real estate tax bills for the Property. 2. The annual reimbursement of real estate tax increment by the City to the Developer as set forth in Section C above shall be conditioned upon the Developer providing the City with the numbers of jobs created or retained by the Project for a particular year if requested by the City to do so for that year. 3. The failure of Developer to provide any information required herein after written notice from the City, and the continued failure to provide such information within (30) days after such notice,shall be considered a breach of this Agreement and shall be cause for the City to deny payments hereunder to the Developer, which payments are conditional upon receipt of the foregoing information. 2 G. REIMBURSEMENT OF DEVELOPER INCENTIVE AMOUNTS RECEIVED IF CITY IS REQUIRED TO REFUND MONIES DUE TO FILING OF DEVELOPER TAX OBJECTION OR ASSESSMENT APPEAL 1. If a refund of tax increment (including any accrued statutory interest thereon) is potentially duefrom the City's TIF Fund as the result of any tax objection, assessment challenge, filing for a property tax exemption under Section 200/15-86 of the Illinois Property Tax Code or appeal to the Illinois Property Tax Appeal Board (PTAB),issuance of a certificate of error or other such action, including any appeals therefrom, concerning the potential reduction of assessed value of the Property, the City may at its sole discretion withhold the Developer's 7 share of any such possible refund (including any accrued statutory interest thereon) from future reimbursements calculated to be paid to the Developer under this Agreement. Furthermore, the Developer is hereby obligated to provide written notice to the City within five (5) business days of its filing any such objection, assessment challenge or formal appeal to the PTAB or other such action, including any appeals therefrom, that could potentially reduce the assessed value of the Property. Failure to provide such notice shall be considered a breach of this Agreement and shall be cause for the City to deny payments hereunder to the Developer. 2. Any funds withheld by the City under this Section G shall be deposited by it into a separate interest-bearing bank account. Upon final determination of the assessed value of the Property, the City shall pay to the Developer the principal amount due under this Agreement as recalculated. The City shall be entitled to retain any interest earned on the account as partial payment for the administration of the account due to the delay of the determination of the final evaluation and recalculation of the benefits due the Developer under this Agreement. 3. If it appears to the City that it will be unable to recover the Developer's share of any such refund (including any accrued statutory interest thereon) from the remaining future reimbursements due the Developer under this Agreement,the Developer shall reimburse the City for the Developer's remaining unpaid share of such refund within thirty (30) days upon receiving written demand of the same from the City. 4. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations contained in this Section G shall remain in effect for the remaining life of the TIF District, whether the TIF District expires upon the current expiration of the Redevelopment Plan and Projects adopted by the City(tax year 2027 payable 2028) at an earlier time if the City passes an ordinance terminating the TIF District; or at a later time if the TIF District is legislatively extended. Furthermore,the obligations set forth in this Section G shall survive the expiration of the TIF District if a tax objection or other such action taken by the Developer is pending prior to the expiration of the TIF District and shall continue until final disposition of such action. H. LIMITED OBLIGATION The City's obligation hereunder to pay the Developer for Eligible Project Costs is a limited obligation to be paid solely from the Special Account. Said obligation does not now and shall never constitute an indebtedness of the City within the meaning of any State of Illinois constitutional or statutory provision and shall not constitute or give rise to a pecuniary liability of the City or a charge or lien against any City fund or require the City to utilize its taxing authority to fulfill the terms of this Agreement. I. CITY PUBLIC PROJECTS The City intends to use part or all of its share of the Project's real estate increment for other public projects within the TIF District or within contiguous TIF Districts as allowed by law.The City shall be eligible for reimbursement of the cost of doing so,as well as other eligible costs incurred by the City in the TIF District. 8 J.

This obligation to indemnify and hold harmless obligates Developer to defend any such claim and/or action,pay any liabilities and/or penalties imposed,and pay all defense costs of City,including but not limited to the reasonable attorney fees of City. Failure to comply with any of these requirements may cause all benefits hereunder to be terminated by the City. X. OTHER GENERAL PROVISIONS 1.
