      , 2015 ("Effective Date"), by and between the CITY OF CHICAGO, an

WHEREAS, the Developer desires to purchase from the City the real property commonly known as 1136-1140 South Wabash Avenue, Chicago, Illinois (subject to final title commitment and survey, the "Property"), which is legally described on Exhibit A attached hereto, for the sum of Four Million Four Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($4,400,000.00), which amount equals the appraised fair market value of the Property; and
 
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City (the "City Council"), pursuant to an ordinance
adopted on      , 2015 (the "Ordinance Date"), and published at pages      
through      in the Journal of the Proceedings of the City Council of such date (such
ordinance, the "1140 Project Ordinance"), authorized the sale of the Property to the Developer, subject to the execution, delivery and recording of this Agreement, and in consideration of the
 
 
 
1
 
Developer's fulfillment of its obligations under this Agreement, including the obligation to complete the Project, as described in Exhibit B attached hereto.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
 
SECTION 1. INCORPORATION OF RECITALS.
 
The recitals set forth above constitute an integral part of this Agreement and are incorporated herein by this reference with the same force and effect as if set forth herein as agreements of the parties.
 
SECTION 2. PURCHASE PRICE / EARNEST MONEY / PERFORMANCE DEPOSIT / ESCROW.
 
A.      Purchase Price. Subject to the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement,
the City agrees to sell the Property to the Developer, and tlie Developer agrees to purchase the
Property from the City for Four Million Four Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars
($4,400,000.00)(the "Purchase Price") and subject to a credit for the Earnest Money (defined in
Section 2.B. below) previously paid by the Developer to the City, which Purchase Price the
Developer will pay to the City on the Closing Date (as defined in Section 3) by certified or
cashier's check or wire transfer of immediately available funds. Except as specifically provided
herein to the contrary, the Developer shall pay all escrow fees and other title insurance fees and
closing costs.
 
B.      ARO Payment. The sale of the Property to the Developer triggers the requirements of
Section 2-45-110 of the Municipal Code (the "Affordable Requirements Ordinance" or "ARO").
The ARO provides that any developer of a "residential housing project" within the meaning of
the ARO must: (i) develop affordable housing units as part ofthe project; (ii) pay a fee in lieu of
the development of affordable housing units; or (iii) any combination of (i) and (ii). The
Developer further acknowledges and agrees that the Project has received an affordable housing
floor area bonus, as set forth in the bonus worksheet attached hereto as Exhibit D ("Bonus
Worksheet"), and as a result is also subject to the requirements of Section 17-4-1004-D ofthe
Zoning Code (the "Density Bonus Provisions"). Like the ARO, the Density Bonus Provisions
require on-site affordable housing or payment of a fee in lieu of providing affordable housing,
but the formulas for calculating the number of required affordable units and the amount ofthe in
lieu payment are different from the formulas in the ARO. If a project is subject to both the ARO
and the Density Bonus Provisions, the developer may elect to comply with either. In this case,
the Developer has elected to comply with the Density Bonus Provisions. In accordance with the
formulas set forth in Section 17-4-1004-C and the Bonus Worksheet, the Developer must provide
a minimum of 9,513 square feet of affordable housing floor area (the "Affordable Units") in the
Project, with an affordable unit mix comparable to the overall mix and approved by the
Department's density bonus project manager, or make a cash payment in lieu of providing
Affordable Units in the amount of $669,715.20 ("Cash Payment"). Prior to the issuance of any
building permits for the Project, including, without limitation, excavation or foundation permits.
 
 
2
 
 
the Developer must either make the required Cash Payment or, if providing . Affordable Units, provide a performance bond or other security in the amount of the Cash Payment ensuring construction of the Affordable Units. If the Developer elects to construct the Affordable Units, it must also enter into an affordable housing agreement with the City pursuant to Section 17-4-1004-E9 ("Affordable Housing Agreement") prior to the issuance of any building permits for the Project, including, without limitation, excavation or foundation permits. The terms of the Affordable Housing Agreement and any amendments thereto are incorporated herein by this reference. The Developer acknowledges and agrees that the Affordable Housing Agreement will be recorded against the Project. The City shall execute partial releases of the Affordable Housing Agreement prior to or at the time of the sale of each Affordable Unit to an income-eligible buyer at an affordable price, subject to the simultaneous execution and recording of a mortgage, restrictive covenant or similar instrument against such Affordable Unit. In addition to the Affordable Housing Agreement, the Applicant acknowledges and agrees that, pursuant to Section 17-4-1003-D3, the Bonus Worksheet will serve as an official record of bonuses and amenities. The Applicant must comply with the applicable affordable housing standards and requirements set forth in Section 17-4-1004, the terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference. In the event that the Developer does not apply for and receive approval from the City for an affordable housing floor area bonus, the Developer shall be required to establish ten percent (10%) of the housing units in the Project as affordable housing (i.e., 28 of the 280 units must be affordable) or pay the City a fee in lieu of the development of such affordable housing units. Such fee shall be an amount equal to One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000)) for each affordable housing unit not developed as part of the Project, in accordance with Chapter 2-45-110 ofthe Municipal Code of Chicago, as such ordinance is in effect as of the Effective Date, which fee shall be due prior to the issuance of any building permits for the Project, including, without limitation, excavation or foundation permits.
  1. Earnest Money. The Developer shall have deposited with the City, prior to the date on which the 1140 Project Ordinance is introduced to City Council, a good faith deposit in the amount of One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000) (the "Earnest Money"), which shall be applied to the Purchase Price at Closing.
  2. Performance Deposit. At or prior to the Closing, the Developer shall deposit with the City a good faith deposit, in the amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000), as security for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement ("Performance Deposit"), which the City will retain until the City issues a Certificate of Project Completion (as defined in Section 12). The City will pay no interest to the Developer on the Performance Deposit. Upon the Developer's receipt of the Certificate of Project Completion, the Developer shall submit a request for a return of the Performance Deposit, and the City shall return the Performance Deposit within ninety (90) days of receiving such request.
 
SECTION 3. CLOSING.
 
The closing of the transfer of the Property from the City to the Developer (the "Closing" or, the "Closing Date") shall take place at the downtown offices of Greater Illinois Title Company, 120 North LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois 60602 or such other reputable title company as may be selected by the Developer (the "Title Company") prior to the Closing.

10
 
 
difference between (x) minus (y) equals the "Compensation to City for a Partial Project Completion Property Sale". The Developer shall not receive any credit for, or refund of, its ARO Payment. The City shall tender its written consent simultaneously with the City's receipt from the Developer of the Compensation to City for a Partial Project Completion Property Sale.

If any such mortgagee or its affiliate succeeds to the Developer's interest in the Property prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Project Completion, whether by foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, and thereafter transfers its interest in the Property to another party (that is not also a mortgagee), 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 17.

The covenants contained in Section 13.2 shall remain
 
 
11
 
 
in effect without limitation as to time.
SECTION 18. 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. Permitted Delays. The Developer shall not be considered in breach of its obligations under this Agreement in the event of a delay due to unforeseeable causes beyond the Developer's control and without the Developer's fault or negligence, including but not limited to, acts of God, acts of the public enemy, acts of the United States government, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, embargoes, material shortages, and unusually severe weather or delays of contractors or subcontractors due to such causes.

If the default is not capable of being cured within the 45-day period, then provided the Developer has commenced to cure the default and is diligently proceeding to cure the default within the 45-day period, and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure through to completion, then the 45-day period shall be extended for the length of time that is reasonably necessary to cure the default. If the default is not cured in the time period provided for herein, the City may institute such proceedings at law or in equity as may be necessary or desirable to cure and remedy the default, including but not limited to, proceedings to compel specific performance.
 
No notice or cure period shall apply to a failure to close by the respective dates as set forth in Section 3 herein. Unless the failure to close is due to circumstances described in Section 18.2. above or caused by a breach by the City under the terms of this Agreement, such failure shall constitute an immediate "Event of Default". Failure to close by the dates set forth in Section 3 shall entitle the City to terminate this Agreement.
  1. Event of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute an "Event of Default" after written notice from the City (if required):
  1. The Developer fails to perform any obligation of the Developer under this Agreement; which default is not cured pursuant to Section 18.3.a.; or
  2. The Developer makes or furnishes a warranty, representation, statement or certification to the City (whether in this Agreement,
 
 
12
 
 
an Economic Disclosure Form, or another document) which is not true and correct, which default is not cured pursuant to Section 18.3.a.;or
3.      A petition is filed by or against the Developer under the Federal
Bankruptcy Code or any similar state or federal law, whether now
or hereinafter existing, which is not vacated, stayed or set aside
within thirty (30) days after filing; or

  2. The Developer makes an assignment, pledge, unpermitted financing, encumbrance, transfer or other disposition in violation of this Agreement (no notice or cure period shall apply); or

  5. Failure to close by the Outside Closing Date, unless the Department, in its sole discretion, extends the Outside Closing Date.
  6. Failure to pay the City the amount set forth in Section 14, if applicable (no notice or cure period shall apply).

  1. Prior to Conveyance. Prior to Closing, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, and the default is not cured in the time period provided in herein, the City may terminate this Agreement, retain the Earnest Money, and institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity against the Developer.
  2. After Conveyance. If an Event of Default occurs after the Closing but prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Project Completion, and the default is not cured in the time period provided for in this Section 18.3, the City may terminate this Agreement and exercise any and all remedies available to it al law or in equity, including, without limitation, the right to re-enter and take possession of the Property, terminate the estate conveyed to the Developer, and revest title to the Property in the City pursuant to the Reconveyance Deed (the "Right of Reverter"); provided, however, the City's Right of Reverter shall be limited by, and 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 Properly was owned by the Developer, and shall cause the release of all liens or encumbrances placed on the Property during the period of time the Property 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 Property to the City, subject only to those title exceptions that were on title as of the date and time that the City conveyed the Property to the Developer.

  1. Waiver and Estoppel. Any delay by the City in instituting or prosecuting any actions or proceedings or otherwise asserting its rights shall not operate as a waiver of such rights or operate to deprive the City of or limit such rights in any way. No waiver made by the Cily with respect to any specific default by the Developer shall be construed, considered or treated as a waiver ofthe rights of the City with respect to any other defaults of the Developer.
SECTION 19.    CONFLICT OF INTEREST; CITY'S AND DEVELOPER'S REPRESENTATIVES NOT INDIVIDUALLY LIABLE.
 
The Developer warrants that no agent, official, or employee ofthe City shall have any personal interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement or the Property, 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 entity or association in which he or she is directly or indirectly interested.

14
 
 
Developer, its officers, members of its board of directors, officials, agents, representatives or employees shall be personally liable for any of the Developer's obligations or any undertaking or covenant of the Developer contained in this Agreement.
 
SECTION 20. INDEMNIFICATION.
 
The Developer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the City harmless from and against any losses, costs, damages, liabilities, claims, suits, actions, causes of action and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) (collectively "Losses") suffered or incurred by the City arising from or in connection with: (1) an Event of Default that has occurred; (2) the failure ofthe Developer or any contractor to pay contractors, subcontractors or material suppliers in connection with the construction of the Project; (3) the failure of the Developer to redress any misrepresentations or omissions in this Agreement or any other agreement relating hereto; and (4) any actions, including but not limited to, conducting environmental tests on the Property as set forth in Section 21 herein, resulting from any activity undertaken by the Developer on the Property prior to or after the conveyance of said Property to the Developer by the City; provided, however, the Developer shall have no obligation to indemnify the City for Losses to the extent such losses are caused by the City or its agents. This indemnification shall survive any termination of this Agreement (regardless of the reason for such termination).
 
SECTION 21. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS.
 
The City makes no covenant, representation or warranty as to the environmental condition ofthe Property or the suitability of the Property for any purpose whatsoever, and the Developer agrees to accept the Property "as is".
It shall be the responsibility of the Developer, at its sole cost and expense, to investigate and determine the soil and environmental condition ofthe Properly. Prior to the date of Closing, Developer may enter the Property owned by the City for the purpose of conducting environmental tests on the Property to determine that the environmental condition of such Property is acceptable. The Developer's activities on such Property shall be limited to those reasonably necessary to perform the environmental testing. Upon completion of the work, the Developer shall restore the Property to its original condition. The Developer shall keep such Property free from any and all liens and encumbrances arising out of any work performed, materials supplied or obligations incurred by or for the Developer, and agrees to indemnify and hold the City harmless against any such liens.

SECTION 22. DEVELOPER'S EMPLOYMENT OBLIGATIONS.
 
 
22.1 Employment Opportunity. The Developer agrees, and shall contractually obligate its various contractors, subcontractors and any affiliate of the Developer operating on the Property (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, gender identity, 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 seq. ofthe Municipal Code of Chicago, 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 print 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 present opportunities for training and employment of low and moderate income residents ofthe City, and 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.
  3. 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 lhe Illinois Human Rights Act, 775 ILCS 5/1-101 et seq. (1993), and any subsequent amendments and regulations promulgated thereto.
 
 
16
 
  1. The Developer, in order to demonstrate compliance with the terms of this Section 22.1, shall cooperate with and promptly and accurately respond to reasonable inquiries by the City, which has the responsibility to observe and report compliance with equal employment opportunity regulations of federal, state and municipal agencies.
  2. 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 Property, so that each such provision shall be binding upon each contractor, subcontractor or affiliate, as the case may be.
  3. Failure to comply with the employment obligations described in this Section 22.1 shall be a basis for the City to pursue remedies under the provisions of Section 18.
 
22.2 City Resident Employment Requirement. 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 of Chicago (at least fifty percent); provided, however, that doing so does not violate a collective bargaining agreement of Developer or an Employer and that in addition to complying with Ihis 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.
  1. 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 ofthe Municipal Code of Chicago in accordance with standards and procedures developed by the chief procurement officer ofthe City of Chicago.
  2. "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.
  3. 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 Project. The Developer and the Employers shall maintain copies of personal documents supportive of every Chicago employee's actual record of residence.

The Developer and the Employers shall submit weekly certified payroll reports (U.S. Department of Labor Form WFI-347 or equivalent) to the Department 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,
 
 
 
17
 
the date that the Developer or Employer hired the employee should be written in after the employee's name.
  1. The Developer and the Employers shall provide full access to their employment records to the chief procurement officer, the Department, 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 later of the City's issuance of the Certificate of Project Completion or the Developer's conveyance of the Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
  2. At the direction of the Department, 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.
  3. 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 22.2 concerning the worker hours performed by actual Chicago residents.
  4. If the City determines that the Developer or an Employer failed to ensure the fulfillment of the requirements of this Section 22.2 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 22.2. If such non-compliance is not remedied in accordance with the breach and cure provisions of Section 18.3, 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 and for the Employers 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.
 
(i)      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.
