  2. Plans and Permits. The Developer shall construct the Project on the Project Site materially in accordance with the master site plan, landscape plan and building elevations prepared by the Architect and attached hereto as Exhibit C, and the final plans and specifications prepared by the Architect dated October 15, 2012, which have been approved by DPD and which are incorporated herein by this reference ("Plans"). If the Developer submits and DPD approves revised plans and specifications after the Effective Date, the term "Plans" as used herein shall refer to the revised plans and specifications upon DPD's written approval of the same. No material deviation from the Plans may be made without the prior written approval of DPD. The Plans shall at all times conform to the TIF Plan and all applicable Laws.
  3. Relocation of Utilities, Curb Cuts and Driveways. The Developer shall be solely responsible for and shall pay all costs associated with: (a) the relocation, installation or construction of public or private utilities, curb cuts and driveways; (b) the repair or reconstruction of any curbs, vaults, sidewalks or parkways required in connection with or damaged as a result of the Developer's construction of the Project; (c) the removal of existing pipes, utility equipment or building foundations; and (d) the termination of existing water or other utility services. The City shall have the right to approve any streetscaping provided by the Developer as part of the Project, including, without limitation, any paving of sidewalks, landscaping and lighting.
  4. City's Right to Inspect Project Site. For the period commencing on the Closing Date and continuing through the date the City issues the Certificate of Completion, any duly authorized representative of the City shall have access to the Project Site at all reasonable times for the purpose of determining whether the Developer is constructing the Project in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and all applicable Laws.
  5. Barricades and Signs. The Developer shall, at its sole cost and expense, erect and maintain such signs as the City may reasonably require during the Project, identifying the site as a City redevelopment project.   The City reserves the right to include the name,
10
 
 
photograph, artistic rendering of the Project and other pertinent information regarding the Developer, the Project Site and the Project in the City's promotional literature and communications. Prior to the commencement of any construction activity requiring barricades, the Developer shall install barricades of a type and appearance satisfactory to the City and constructed in compliance with all applicable Laws. DPD shall have the right to approve the maintenance, appearance, color scheme, painting, nature, type, content and design of all barricades. The Developer shall erect all signs and barricades so as not to interfere with or affect any bus stop or train station in the vicinity of the Project Site.
 
11.6   Survival. The provisions of this Section 11 shall survive the Closing.
SECTION 12.  LIMITED APPLICABILITY.
 
Any approval given by DPD pursuant to this Agreement is for the purpose of this Agreement only and does not constitute the approval required by the City's Department of Buildings or any other City department, nor does such approval constitute an approval of the quality, structural soundness or safety of any improvements located or to be located on the Project Site, or the compliance of said improvements with any Laws, private covenants, restrictions of record, or any agreement affecting the Project Site or any part thereof.
 
SECTION 13. COMMENCEMENT AND COMPLETION OF PROJECT.
 
The Developer shall commence construction of the Project no later than October 31, 2015, and shall complete the Project (as evidenced by the issuance of the Certificate of Completion) no later than October 31, 2016, provided, however, DPD, in its sole discretion, may extend the construction commencement and completion dates by up to six (6) months each (or twelve (12) months in the aggregate). The Developer shall give written notice to the City within five (5) days after it commences construction. The Developer shall construct the Project in accordance with the Plans and all Laws and covenants and restrictions of record.
 
SECTION 14. CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION.
 
The Developer shall request from the City a certificate of completion ("Certificate of Completion") upon the completion of the Project in accordance with this Agreement. Within forty-five (45) days after receipt of a written request by the Developer for a Certificate of Completion, the City shall provide the Developer with either the Certificate of Completion or a written statement indicating in adequate detail how the Developer has failed to complete the Project in conformity with this Agreement, or is otherwise in default, and what measures or acts will be necessary, in the sole opinion of the City, for the Developer to take or perform in order to obtain the Certificate of Completion. If the City requires additional measures or acts to assure compliance, the Developer shall resubmit a written request for the Certificate of Completion upon compliance with the City's response. The Certificate of Completion shall be in recordable form, and shall, upon recording, constitute a conclusive determination of satisfaction and termination of the covenants in this Agreement and the Deed with respect to the Developer's obligations to construct the Project. The Certificate of Completion shall not, however, constitute evidence that the Developer has complied with any Laws relating to the construction of the Project, and shall not serve as any "guaranty" as to the quality of the construction. Nor shall the Certificate of Completion release the Developer from its obligation to comply with the other terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement.
11
 
 
SECTION 15.  RESTRICTIONS ON USE.
 
The Developer, for itself and its successors and assigns, agrees as follows:
  1. The Developer shall use the Project Site in compliance with the TIF Plan.
  2. The Developer shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sex, gender identity, age, religion, disability, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, marital status, parental status, military discharge status, or source of income in the sale, lease, rental, use or occupancy of the Project Site or the Project or any part thereof.
  3. The Developer shall construct the Project in accordance with this Agreement, the Plans, and all Laws and covenants and restrictions of record.
 
The Developer, for itself and its successors and assigns, acknowledges and agrees that the development and use restrictions set forth in this Section 15 constitute material, bargained-for consideration for the City and are intended to further the public policies set forth in the TIF Plan.
 
SECTION 16.  PROHIBITION AGAINST SALE OR TRANSFER OF PROJECT SITE.
 
Prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Completion, the Developer may not, without the prior written consent of DPD, which consent shall be in DPD's sole discretion: (a) directly or indirectly sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Project Site or any part thereof or any interest therein or the Developer's controlling interests therein (including, without limitation, a transfer by assignment of any beneficial interest under a land trust); or (b) directly or indirectly assign this Agreement. The Developer acknowledges and agrees that DPD may withhold its consent under (a) or (b) above if, among other reasons, the proposed purchaser, transferee or assignee (or such entity's principal officers or directors) is in violation of any Laws, or if the Developer fails to submit sufficient evidence of the financial responsibility, business background and reputation of the proposed purchaser, transferee or assignee. If the Developer is a business entity, no principal party of the Developer (e.g., a general partner, member, manager or shareholder) may sell, transfer or assign any of its interest in the entity prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Completion to anyone other than another principal party, without the prior written consent of DPD, which consent shall be in DPD's sole discretion. The Developer must disclose the identity of all limited partners to the City at the time such limited partners obtain an interest in the Developer. The provisions of this Section do not apply to Developer's Existing Business on the adjacent property.
 
SECTION 17.  LIMITATION UPON ENCUMBRANCE OF PROJECT SITE.
 
Prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Completion for the Project, the Developer shall not, without DPD's prior written consent, which shall be in DPD's sole discretion, engage in any financing or other transaction which would create an encumbrance or lien on the Project Site, except for any Lender Financing approved pursuant to Section 9, which shall be limited to funds necessary to construct the Project. The provisions of this Section do not apply to Developer's Existing Business on the adjacent property.
 
SECTION 18.  MORTGAGEES NOT OBLIGATED TO CONSTRUCT.
12
 
 
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or of the Deed, the holder of any mortgage authorized by this Agreement (or any affiliate of such holder) shall not itself be obligated to construct or complete the Project, or to guarantee such construction or completion, but shall be bound by the other covenants running with the land specified in Section 19 and, at Closing, shall execute a subordination agreement in accordance with Section 10.10. If any such mortgagee or its affiliate succeeds to the Developer's interest in the Project Site prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Completion, whether by foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, and thereafter transfers its interest in the Project Site to another party, such transferee shall be obligated to complete the Project, and shall also be bound by the other covenants running with the land specified in Section 19.
 
SECTION 19. COVENANTS RUNNING WITH THE LAND.
 
The parties agree, and the Deed shall so expressly provide, that the covenants, agreements, releases and other terms and provisions contained in Section 13 (Commencement and Completion of Project), Section 15 (Restrictions on Use), Section 16 (Prohibition Against Sale or Transfer of Project Site), Section 17 (Limitation Upon Encumbrance of Project Site), and Section 23.4 (Release for Environmental Conditions), touch and concern and shall be appurtenant to and shall run with the Project Site. Such covenants, agreements, releases and other terms and provisions shall be binding on the Developer and its successors and assigns (subject to the limitation set forth in Section 18 above as to any permitted mortgagee) to the fullest extent permitted by law and equity for the benefit and in favor of the City, and shall be enforceable by the City. Such covenants, agreements, releases and other terms and provisions shall terminate as follows: Sections 13, 15.3, 16 and 17 upon the issuance of the Certificate of Completion; Section 15.1 upon the expiration of the TIF Plan; and Sections 15.2 and 23.4 with no limitation as to time.
 
SECTION 20.  PERFORMANCE AND BREACH.
  1. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in the Developer's performance of its obligations under this Agreement.
  2. Event of Default.   The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute an "Event of Default" under this Agreement:
  1. the failure of the Developer to perform, keep or observe any of the covenants, conditions, promises, agreements or obligations of the Developer under this Agreement or any related agreement;
  2. the failure of the Developer to perform, keep or observe any of the covenants, conditions, promises, agreements or obligations of the Developer under any other agreement with any person or entity if such failure may have a material adverse effect on the Developer's business, property, assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise;
  3. the making or furnishing by the Developer of any warranty, representation, statement, certification, schedule or report to the City (whether in this
 
13
 
 
Agreement, an Economic Disclosure Statement, or another document) which is untrue or misleading in any material respect;
  1. except as otherwise permitted hereunder, the creation (whether voluntary or involuntary) of, or any attempt to create, any lien or other encumbrance upon the Project Site, or the making or any attempt to make any levy, seizure or attachment thereof;
  2. the commencement of any proceedings in bankruptcy by or against the Developer or for the liquidation or reorganization of the Developer, or alleging that the Developer is insolvent or unable to pay its debts as they mature, or for the readjustment or arrangement of the Developer's debts, whether under the United States Bankruptcy Code or under any other state or federal law, now or hereafter existing, for the relief of debtors, or the commencement of any analogous statutory or non-statutory proceedings involving the Developer; provided, however, that if such commencement of proceedings is involuntary, such action shall not constitute an Event of Default unless such proceedings are not dismissed within sixty (60) days after the commencement of such proceedings;
  3. the appointment of a receiver or trustee for the Developer, for any substantial part of the Developer's assets or the institution of any proceedings for the dissolution, or the full or partial liquidation, or the merger or consolidation, of the Developer; provided, however, that if such appointment or commencement of proceedings is involuntary, such action shall not constitute an Event of Default unless such appointment is not revoked or such proceedings are not dismissed within sixty (60) days after the commencement thereof;
  4. the entry of any judgment or order against the Developer which is related to the Project Site and remains unsatisfied or undischarged and in effect for sixty (60) days after such entry without a stay of enforcement or execution;
  5. the occurrence of an event of default under the Lender Financing, which default is not cured within any applicable cure period;
 
(i)      the dissolution of the Developer; and
(j) the occurrence of a material and adverse change in the Developer's financial condition or operations.
20.3 Cure. If the Developer defaults in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the Developer shall have thirty (30) days after written notice of default from the City to cure the default, or such longer period as shall be reasonably necessary to cure such default provided the Developer promptly commences such cure and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion (so long as continuation of the default does not create material risk to the Project or to persons using the Project). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary:
 
(a) there shall be no notice requirement with respect to Events of Default described in Section 5 (with respect to Outside Closing Date); and
14
 
 
(b) there shall be no notice requirement or cure period with respect to Events of Default described in Section 13 (Commencement and Completion of Project), Section 16 (Prohibition Against Transfer of Project Site) and Section 17 (Limitation Upon Encumbrance of Project Site).
  1. Prior to Closing. If an Event of Default occurs prior to the Closing, and the default is not cured in the time period provided for in Section 20.3 above, the City may terminate this Agreement, institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity against the Developer, or retain the Earnest Money and Performance Deposit as liquidated damages.
  2. After Closing. If an Event of Default occurs after the Closing but prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Completion, and the default is not cured in the time period provided for in Section 20.3 above, the City may terminate this Agreement and exercise any and all remedies available to it at law or in equity or under this Agreement, including the right to revest title to the Project Site in the City pursuant to the Reconeyance Deed; provided, however, the City's recording of the Reconveyance Deed shall not defeat, render invalid, or limit in any way, the lien of any mortgage authorized by this Agreement. If the Reconveyance Deed is recorded by the City, the Developer shall be responsible for all real estate taxes and assessments which accrued during the period the Project Site was owned by the Developer, and shall cause the release of all liens or encumbrances placed on the Project Site during the period of time the Project Site was owned by the Developer. The Developer will cooperate with the City to ensure that if the City records the Reconveyance Deed, such recording is effective for purposes of transferring title to the Project Site to the City, subject only to those title exceptions that were on title as of the date and time that the City conveyed the Project Site to the Developer.
  3. Resale of the Project Site. Upon the reconveyance of title to the Project Site to the City as provided in Section 20.5. the City may complete the Project or convey the Project Site, subject to any first mortgage lien, to a qualified and financially responsible party reasonably acceptable to the first mortgagee, who shall assume the obligation of completing the Project or such other improvements as shall be satisfactory to DPD, and otherwise comply with the covenants that run with the land as specified in Section 19.
  4. Disposition of Resale Proceeds. If the City sells the Project Site as provided for in Section 20.6, the net proceeds from the sale, after payment of all amounts owed under any mortgage liens authorized by this Agreement in order of lien priority, shall be utilized to reimburse the City for:
  1. costs and expenses incurred by the City (including, without limitation, salaries of personnel) in connection with the recapture, management and resale of the Project Site (less any income derived by the City from the Project Site in connection with such management); and
  2. all unpaid taxes, assessments, and water and sewer charges assessed against the Project Site; and
  3. any payments made (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) to discharge or prevent from attaching or being made any
 
15
 
 
subsequent encumbrances or liens due to obligations, defaults or acts of the Developer; and
  1. any expenditures  made or obligations  incurred with  respect to construction or maintenance of the Project; and
    1. any other amounts owed to the City by the Developer.
 
The Developer shall be entitled to receive any remaining proceeds up to the amount of the Developer's equity investment in the Project Site.
SECTION 21.  CONFLICT OF INTEREST; CITY'S REPRESENTATIVES NOT INDIVIDUALLY LIABLE.
 
The Developer represents and warrants that no agent, official or employee of the City shall have any personal interest, direct or indirect, in the Developer, this Agreement, the Project Site or the Project, nor shall any such agent, official or employee participate in any decision relating to this Agreement which affects his or her personal interests or the interests of any corporation, partnership, association or other entity in which he or she is directly or indirectly interested. No agent, official or employee of the City shall be personally liable to the Developer or any successor in interest in the event of any default or breach by the City or for any amount which may become due to the Developer or successor or with respect to any commitment or obligation of the City under the terms of this Agreement.
 
SECTION 22. INDEMNIFICATION.
 
The Developer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the City harmless from and against any Losses suffered or incurred by the City arising from or in connection with: (a) the failure of the Developer to perform its obligations under this Agreement; (b) the failure of the Developer or any Agent to pay contractors, subcontractors or material suppliers in connection with the construction and management of the Project; (c) any misrepresentation or omission made by the Developer or any Agent; (d) the failure of the Developer to redress any misrepresentations or omissions in this Agreement or any other agreement relating hereto; and (e) any activity undertaken by the Developer or any Agent on the Project Site prior to or after the Closing. This indemnification shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement (regardless of the reason for such termination).
 
SECTION 23.  ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS.
 
23.1 "AS IS" SALE. THE DEVELOPER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS HAD ADEQUATE OPPORTUNITY TO INSPECT AND EVALUATE THE STRUCTURAL, PHYSICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION AND RISKS OF THE CITY PROPERTY AND ACCEPTS THE RISK THAT ANY INSPECTION MAY NOT DISCLOSE ALL MATERIAL MATTERS AFFECTING THE CITY PROPERTY (AND ANY IMPROVEMENTS THEREON). THE DEVELOPER AGREES TO ACCEPT THE CITY PROPERTY IN ITS "AS IS," "WHERE IS" AND "WITH ALL FAULTS" CONDITION AT CLOSING WITHOUT ANY COVENANT, REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF ANY KIND, AS TO THE STRUCTURAL, PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION OF THE CITY PROPERTY OR THE SUITABILITY OF THE CITY PROPERTY FOR ANY PURPOSE WHATSOEVER. THE
16
 
 
DEVELOPER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS RELYING SOLELY UPON ITS OWN INSPECTION AND OTHER DUE DILIGENCE ACTIVITIES AND NOT UPON ANY INFORMATION (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES OR REPORTS OF ANY KIND) PROVIDED BY OR ON BEHALF OF THE CITY OR ITS AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES WITH RESPECT THERETO. THE DEVELOPER AGREES THAT IT IS THE DEVELOPER'S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND OBLIGATION TO PERFORM ANY ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION WORK AND TAKE SUCH OTHER ACTION AS IS NECESSARY TO PUT THE CITY PROPERTY IN A CONDITION WHICH IS SUITABLE FOR ITS INTENDED USE.
  1. Right of Entry. The Developer's obligation to purchase the City Property is conditioned upon the Developer being satisfied with the condition of the City Property for the construction, development and operation of the Project. Upon the Developer's request, the City shall grant the Developer the right, at its sole cost and expense, to enter the City Property to inspect the same, perform surveys, environmental assessments, soil tests and any other due diligence it deems necessary or desirable to satisfy itself as to the condition of the City Property. If the Developer determines that it is not satisfied, in its sole discretion, with the condition of the City Property, the Developer may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the City any time prior to the Closing Date, whereupon the City shall return the Performance Deposit to the Developer and this Agreement shall be null and void and, except as otherwise specifically provided, neither party shall have any further right, duty or obligation hereunder. If the Developer elects not to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 23.2. the Developer shall be deemed satisfied with the condition of the City Property.
  2. Release and Indemnification. The Developer, on behalf of itself and the other Developer Parties, or anyone claiming by, through, or under the Developer Parties, hereby releases, relinquishes and forever discharges the City Parties from and against any and all Losses which the Developer or any of the Developer Parties ever had, now have, or hereafter may have, whether grounded in tort or contract or otherwise, in any and all courts or other forums, of whatever kind or nature, whether known or unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with, directly or indirectly (a) any environmental contamination, pollution or hazards associated with the City Property or any improvements, facilities or operations located or formerly located thereon, including, without limitation, any release, emission, discharge, generation, transportation, treatment, storage or disposal of Hazardous Substances, or threatened release, emission or discharge of Hazardous Substances; (b) the structural, physical or environmental condition of the City Property, including, without limitation, the presence or suspected presence of Hazardous Substances in, on, under or about the City Property or the migration of Hazardous Substances from or to other property; (c) any violation of, compliance with, enforcement of or liability under any Environmental Laws, including, without limitation, any Losses arising under CERCLA, and (d) any investigation, cleanup, monitoring, remedial, removal or restoration work required by any federal, state or local governmental agency or political subdivision or other third party in connection or associated with the City Property or any improvements, facilities or operations located or formerly located thereon (collectively, "Released Claims"). Furthermore, the Developer shall defend, indemnify, and hold the City Parties harmless from and against any and all Losses which may be made or asserted by any third parties arising out of or in any way connected with, directly or indirectly, any of the Released Claims.
 
 
17
 
  1. Release Runs with the Land. The covenant of release in Section 23.3 shall run with the City Property, and shall be binding upon all successors and assigns of the Developer with respect to the City Property, including, without limitation, each and every person, firm, corporation, limited liability company, trust or other entity owning, leasing, occupying, using or possessing any portion of the City Property under or through the Developer following the date of the Deed. The Developer acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing covenant of release constitutes a material inducement to the City to enter into this Agreement, and that, but for such release, the City would not have agreed to convey the City Property to the Developer. It is expressly agreed and understood by and between the Developer and the City that, should any future obligation of the Developer, or any of the Developer Parties, arise or be alleged to arise in connection with any environmental, soil or other condition of the City Property, neither the Developer, nor any of the Developer Parties, will assert that those obligations must be satisfied in whole or in part by the City because Section 23.5 contains a full, complete and final release of all such claims.
  2. Survival. This Section 23 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement (regardless of the reason for such termination).
 
SECTION 24.  DEVELOPER'S EMPLOYMENT OBLIGATIONS.
 
24.1 Employment Opportunity. The Developer agrees, and shall contractually obligate its various contractors, subcontractors and any Affiliate of the Developer operating on the Project Site (collectively, the "Employers" and individually, an "Employer") to agree, that with respect to the provision of services in connection with the construction of the Project:
  1. Neither the Developer nor any Employer shall discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment based upon race, religion, color, sex, national origin or ancestry, age, handicap or disability, sexual orientation, military discharge status, marital status, parental status or source of income as defined in the City of Chicago Human Rights Ordinance, Section 2-160-010 et seg. of the Municipal Code, as amended from time to time (the "Human Rights Ordinance"). The Developer and each Employer shall take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are hired and employed without discrimination based upon the foregoing grounds, and are treated in a non-discriminatory manner with regard to all job-related matters, including, without limitation: employment, upgrading, demotion or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship. The Developer and each Employer agrees to post in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided by the City setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause. In addition, the Developer and each Employer, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees, shall state that all qualified applicants shall receive consideration for employment without discrimination based upon the foregoing grounds.
  2. To the greatest extent feasible, the Developer and each Employer shall (i) present opportunities for training and employment of low and moderate income residents of the City, and (ii) provide that contracts for work in connection with the construction of the Project be awarded to business concerns which are located in or owned in substantial part by persons residing in, the City.
18
 
i I
i
 
  1. The Developer and each Employer shall comply with all federal, state and local equal employment and affirmative action statutes, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the Human Rights Ordinance and the Illinois Human Rights Act, 775 ILCS 5/1-101 et seg. (1993), both as amended from time to time, and any regulations promulgated thereunder.
  2. The Developer, in order to demonstrate compliance with the terms of this Section 24.1, shall cooperate with and promptly and accurately respond to inquiries by the City, which has the responsibility to observe and report compliance with equal employment opportunity regulations of federal, state and municipal agencies.
  3. The Developer and each Employer shall include the foregoing provisions of subparagraphs (a) through (d) in every contract entered into in connection with the construction of the Project, and shall require inclusion of these provisions in every subcontract entered into by any subcontractors, and every agreement with any affiliate operating on the Project Site, so that each such provision shall be binding upon each contractor, subcontractor or affiliate, as the case may be.
  4. Failure to comply with the employment obligations described in this Section 24.1 shall be a basis for the City to pursue remedies under the provisions of Section 20.
 
24.2   City Resident Employment Reguirement.
  1. The Developer agrees, and shall contractually obligate each Employer to agree, that during the construction of the Project, the Developer and each Employer shall comply with the minimum percentage of total worker hours performed by actual residents of the City of Chicago as specified in Section 2-92-330 of the Municipal Code (at least fifty percent); provided, however, that in addition to complying with this percentage, the Developer and each Employer shall be required to make good faith efforts to utilize qualified residents of the City in both unskilled and skilled labor positions.
  2. The Developer and the Employers may request a reduction or waiver of this minimum percentage level of Chicagoans as provided for in Section 2-92-330 of the Municipal Code in accordance with standards and procedures developed by the chief procurement officer of the City of Chicago.
  3. "Actual residents of the City of Chicago" shall mean persons domiciled within the City of Chicago. The domicile is an individual's one and only true, fixed and permanent home and principal establishment.
  4. The Developer and the Employers shall provide for the maintenance of adequate employee residency records to ensure that actual Chicago residents are employed on the construction of the Project. The Developer and the Employers shall maintain copies of personal documents supportive of every Chicago employee's actual record of residence.
 
19
 
  1. The Developer and the Employers shall submit weekly certified payroll reports (U.S. Department of Labor Form WH-347 or equivalent) to DPD in triplicate, which shall identify clearly the actual residence of every employee on each submitted certified payroll. The first time that an employee's name appears on a payroll, the date that the Developer or Employer hired the employee should be written in after the employee's name.
  2. The Developer and the Employers shall provide full access to their employment records to the chief procurement officer, DPD, the Superintendent of the Chicago Police Department, the inspector general, or any duly authorized representative thereof. The Developer and the Employers shall maintain all relevant personnel data and records for a period of at least three (3) years after the issuance of the Certificate of Completion.
  3. At the direction of DPD, the Developer and the Employers shall provide affidavits and other supporting documentation to verify or clarify an employee's actual address when doubt or lack of clarity has arisen.
  4. Good faith efforts on the part of the Developer and the Employers to provide work for actual Chicago residents (but not sufficient for the granting of a waiver request as provided for in the standards and procedures developed by the chief procurement officer) shall not suffice to replace the actual, verified achievement of the requirements of this Section 24.2 concerning the worker hours performed by actual Chicago residents.
 
(i)      If the City determines that the Developer or an Employer failed to ensure
the fulfillment of the requirements of this Section 24.2 concerning the worker hours
performed by actual Chicago residents or failed to report in the manner as indicated
above, the City will thereby be damaged in the failure to provide the benefit of
demonstrable employment to Chicagoans to the degree stipulated in this Section 24.2.
If such non-compliance is not remedied in accordance with the breach and cure
provisions of Section 20.3, the parties agree that 1/20 of 1 percent (.05%) of the
aggregate hard construction costs set forth in the Budget shall be surrendered by the
Developer to the City in payment for each percentage of shortfall toward the stipulated
residency requirement. Failure to report the residency of employees entirely and
correctly shall result in the surrender of the entire liquidated damages as if no Chicago
residents were employed in either of the categories. The willful falsification of
statements and the certification of payroll data may subject the Developer and/or the
other Employers or employees to prosecution.
 
(j) Nothing herein provided shall be construed to be a limitation upon the "Notice of Requirements for Affirmative Action to Ensure Equal Employment Opportunity, Executive Order 11246" and "Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity, Executive Order 11246," or other affirmative action required for equal opportunity under the provisions of this Agreement.
 
(k) The Developer shall cause or require the provisions of this Section 24.2 to be included in all construction contracts and subcontracts related to the construction of the Project.
20
 
 
24.3 Developer's MBE/WBE Commitment. The Developer agrees for itself and its successors and assigns, and, if necessary to meet the requirements set forth herein, shall contractually obligate the general contractor to agree, that during the construction of the Project:
  1. Consistent with the findings which support, as applicable, (i) the Minority-Owned and Women-Owned Business Enterprise Procurement Program, Section 2-92-420 et seg., Municipal Code (the "Procurement Program"), and (ii) the Minority- and Women-Owned Business Enterprise Construction Program, Section 2-92-650 et seg., Municipal Code (the "Construction Program," and collectively with the Procurement Program, the "MBE/WBE Program"), and in reliance upon the provisions of the MBE/WBE Program to the extent contained in, and as qualified by, the provisions of this Section 24.3, during the course of construction of the Project, at least 24% of the aggregate hard construction costs shall be expended for contract participation by minority-owned businesses and at least 4% of the aggregate hard construction costs shall be expended for contract participation by women-owned businesses.
  2. For purposes of this Section 24.3 only:
    1. The Developer (and any party to whom a contract is let by the Developer in connection with the Project) shall be deemed a "contractor" and this Agreement (and any contract let by the Developer in connection with the Project) shall be deemed a "contract" or a "construction contract" as such terms are defined in Sections 2-92-420 and 2-92-670, Municipal Code, as applicable.
    2. The term "minority-owned business" or "MBE" shall mean a business identified in the Directory of Certified Minority Business Enterprises published by the City's Department of Procurement Services, or otherwise certified by the City's Department of Procurement Services as a minority-owned business enterprise, related to the Procurement Program or the Construction Program, as applicable.
    3. The term "women-owned business" or "WBE" shall mean a business identified in the Directory of Certified Women Business Enterprises published by the City's Department of Procurement Services, or otherwise certified by the City's Department of Procurement Services as a women-owned business enterprise, related to the Procurement Program or the Construction Program, as applicable.
  2. Consistent with Sections 2-92-440 and 2-92-720, Municipal Code, the Developer's MBE/WBE commitment may be achieved in part by the Developer's status as an MBE or WBE (but only to the extent of any actual work performed on the Project by the Developer) or by a joint venture with one or more MBEs or WBEs (but only to the extent of the lesser of (i) the MBE or WBE participation in such joint venture, or (ii) the amount of any actual work performed on the Project by the MBE or WBE); by the Developer utilizing a MBE or a WBE as the general contractor (but only to the extent of any actual work performed on the Project by the general contractor); by subcontracting or causing the general contractor to subcontract a portion of the construction of the Project to one or more MBEs or WBEs; by the purchase of materials or services used in

Such breach and default entitles the City to all remedies (including, without limitation, termination for default) under this Agreement, and under any Other Contract, at law and in equity. This provision amends any Other Contract and supersedes any inconsistent provision contained therein.

SECTION 30. INSPECTOR GENERAL AND LEGISLATIVE INSPECTOR GENERAL.
 
It is the duty of every officer, employee, department, agency, contractor, subcontractor, Developer and licensee of the City, and every applicant for certification of eligibility for a City contract or program, to cooperate with the City's Legislative Inspector General and with the City's Inspector General in any investigation or hearing undertaken pursuant to Chapters 2-55 and 2-56, respectively, of the Municipal Code. The Developer understands and will abide by all provisions of Chapters 2-55 and 2-56 of the Municipal Code.
 
SECTION 31. WASTE ORDINANCE PROVISIONS.
 
In accordance with Section 11-4-1600(e) of the Municipal Code, Developer warrants and represents that it, and to the best of its knowledge, its contractors and subcontractors, have not violated and are not in violation of any provisions of Section 7-28 or Section 11-4 of the Municipal Code (the "Waste Sections"). During the period while this Agreement is executory, Developer's, any general contractor's or any subcontractor's violation of the Waste Sections, whether or not relating to the performance of this Agreement, constitutes a breach of and an event of default under this Agreement, for which the opportunity to cure, if curable, will be
27
i I
 
 
granted only at the sole designation of the Commissioner of DPD. Such breach and default entitles the City to all remedies under the Agreement, at law or in equity. This section does not limit the Developer's, general contractor's and its subcontractors' duty to comply with all applicable Laws, in effect now or later, and whether or not they appear in this Agreement. Noncompliance with these terms and conditions may be used by the City as grounds for the termination of this Agreement, and may further affect the Developer's eligibility for future contract awards.
 
SECTION 32. SHAKMAN.
  1. The City is subject to the May 31, 2007 Order entitled "Agreed Settlement Order and Accord" (the "Shakman Accord") and the August 16, 2007 "City of Chicago Hiring Plan" (the "City Hiring Plan") entered in Shakman v. Democratic Organization of Cook County, Case No 69 C 2145 (United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois). Among other things, the Shakman Accord and the City Hiring Plan prohibit the City from hiring persons as governmental employees in non-exempt positions on the basis of political reasons or factors.
  2. Developer is aware that City policy prohibits City employees from directing any individual to apply for a position with Developer, either as an employee or as a subcontractor, and from directing Developer to hire an individual as an employee or as a subcontractor. Accordingly, Developer must follow its own hiring and contracting procedures, without being influenced by City employees. Any and all personnel provided by Developer under this Agreement are employees or subcontractors of Developer, not employees of the City of Chicago. This Agreement is not intended to and does not constitute, create, give rise to, or otherwise recognize an employer-employee relationship of any kind between the City and any personnel provided by Developer.
  3. Developer will not condition, base, or knowingly prejudice or affect any term or aspect to the employment of any personnel provided under this Agreement, or offer employment to any individual to provide services under this Agreement, based upon or because of any political reason or factor, including, without limitation, any individual's political affiliation, membership in a political organization or party, political support or activity, political financial contributions, promises of such political support, activity or financial contributions, or such individual's political sponsorship or recommendation. For purposes of this Agreement, a political organization or party is an identifiable group or entity that has as its primary purpose the support of or opposition to candidates for elected public office. Individual political activities are the activities of individual persons in support of or in opposition to political organizations or parties or candidates for elected public office.
  4. In the event of any communication to Developer by a City employee or City official in violation of Section 32.2 above, or advocating a violation of Section 32.3 above, Developer will, as soon as is reasonably practicable, report such communication to the Hiring Oversight Section of the City's Office of the Inspector General ("IGO Hiring Oversight"), and also to the head of the relevant City Department utilizing services provided under this Agreement. Developer will also cooperate with any inquiries by IGO Hiring Oversight or the Shakman Monitor's Office related to the contract.
 
SECTION 33. FAILURE TO MAINTAIN ELIGIBILITY TO DO BUSINESS WITH THE CITY.
 
28
 
 
Failure by Developer or any controlling person (as defined in Section 1-23-010 of the Municipal Code) thereof to maintain eligibility to do business with the City of Chicago as required by Section 1-23-030 of the Municipal Code shall be grounds for termination of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Developer shall at all times comply with Section 2-154-020 of the Municipal Code.
 
SECTION 34. MISCELLANEOUS.
 
The following general provisions govern this Agreement:
  1. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute a single, integrated instrument.
  2. Cumulative Remedies. The remedies of any party hereunder are cumulative and the exercise of any one or more of such remedies shall not be construed as a waiver of any other remedy herein conferred upon such party or hereafter existing at law or in equity, unless specifically so provided herein.
  3. Date for Performance. If the final date of any time period set forth herein falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday under the laws of Illinois or the United States of America, then such time period shall be automatically extended to the next business day.
  4. Entire Agreement: Modification. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreements, negotiations and discussions. This Agreement may not be modified or amended in any manner without the prior written consent of the parties hereto. No term of this Agreement may be waived or discharged orally or by any course of dealing, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party benefited by such term.
  5. Exhibits. All exhibits referred to herein and attached hereto shall be deemed part of this Agreement.
  6. Force Majeure. Neither the City nor the Developer shall be considered in breach of its obligations under this Agreement in the event of a delay due to unforeseeable events or conditions beyond the reasonable control of the party affected which in fact interferes with the ability of such party to discharge its obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, fires, floods, strikes, shortages of material and unusually severe weather or delays of subcontractors due to such causes. The time for the performance of the obligations shall be extended only for the period of the delay and only if the party relying on this section requests an extension in writing within twenty (20) days after the beginning of any such delay.
  7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois.
  8. Headings. The headings of the various sections and subsections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not in any manner be construed as modifying, amending or affecting in any way the express terms and provisions hereof.
29
 
  1. No Merger. The terms of this Agreement shall not be merged with the Deed, and the delivery of the Deed shall not be deemed to affect or impair the terms of this Agreement.
  2. No Waiver. No waiver by the City with respect to any specific default by the Developer shall be deemed to be a waiver of the rights of the City with respect to any other defaults of the Developer, nor shall any forbearance by the City to seek a remedy for any breach or default be deemed a waiver of its rights and remedies with respect to such breach or default, nor shall the City be deemed to have waived any of its rights and remedies unless such waiver is in writing.
  3. Severability. If any term of this Agreement or any application thereof is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid part were never included herein and this Agreement shall be and remain valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
  4. Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply to and bind the successors and assigns of the parties.
