the extent the HRA agrees to subordinate its interest to the terms of
the First Mortgage.
The Holder of the First Mortgage (or any nominee or agent controlled by the Holder) shall not be
obligated to undertake or continue construction or completion of the Improvements while in
possession of the Development Property pursuant to the foreclosure, or conveyance by Developer
to the Holder in lieu of foreclosure, except upon express assumption of such obligation as
provided in Section 7.3, provided that nothing in this Section or in any other section of this
Agreement shall be deemed or construed to permit any Holder to devote the Development
Property or any portion thereof to any use, or to construct any improvement, other than those uses
or improvements permitted by this Agreement. Further, any party who obtains any interest in all
or any portion of the Development Property from or through any Holder, except for any nominee
or agent controlled by the Holder, whether through foreclosure sale or otherwise, shall be strictly
subject to the terms and conditions ofthis Agreement, as such as binding on Developer, and such
party shall not be entitled to any additional rights or privileges granted a Holder hereunder. /
Section 7.2. Notice of Default: COPy to Mortgagee. Whenever the HRA shall deliver
any notice or demand to Developer with respect to any breach or default by Developer in its
obligations or covenants under this Agreement, the HRA shall at the same time forward a copy of
such notice or demand to each known Holder of any First Mortgage at the last address of such
Holder shown in the records of the HRA.
. Section 7.3. Mortgagee's Option to Cure Defaults. After anybreach or default referred
to in Section 7.2 hereof, each such Holder shall (insofar as the rights of the HRA are concerned
and subject to any rights of the Mortgagor under such Mortgage) have the right, at its option, for
a period of 90 days after notice of such default pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof, to cure or remedy
such breach or default and to add the cost thereof to the Mortgage debt and the lien of its
Mortgage. If a default is not susceptible of cure within such 90-day period, the Holder shall have
such period oftime as is necessary to cure such default provided the Holder promptly
commences the cure and thereafter proceeds to cure such default as soon as reasonably possible
and provided such failure to cure within 90 days does not jeopardize the purposes of the
Agreement or the Plan. However, if the breach or default is with respect to construction of the
Improvements, nothing contained in this Section or any other Section of this Agreement shall be
deemed to permit or authorize such Holder, either before or after foreclosure or action in lieu
thereof, to undertake or continue the construction or completion of the Improvements (beyond
the extent necessary to conserve or protect Improvements or construction already made) for more
than 90 days after the Holder has received notice of such default pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof,
without first having expressly assumed the obligation to the HRA, by written agreement
reasonably satisfactory to the HRA, to complete, in the manner provided in this Agreement and
in conformance with the Development Plans, the Improvements. If the Holder enters into an
agreement assuming the obligations of Developer under the Agreement, such agreement shall
provide that all obligations of the Holder thereunder shall terminate at such time as the Holder in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.1 of the Agreement or in accordance with the
. following paragraph assigns the Agreement. Any Holder who shall properly complete the

Holder of a First Mortgage acquires the interest of Developer under the terms of the Agreement,
the Holder shall be permitted to assign its interest in the Agreement with the consent ofHRA,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In exercising its judgment as to
whether or not to grant such consent, the HRA shall take into account only the financial
condition and experience of the proposed assignee and its capacity to perform the obligations
remaining to be performed under the Agreement at the time of such assignment. In addition, the
Holder may assign its interest at any time without the consent of the HRA to a person with a
verifiable net worth in excess of $1 0,000,000. Any such assignee shall agree in writing with the
HRA' for itself and its successors and assigns, to be bound by the terms and conditions of the
Agreement, the Deed, and the Plan, and not to transfer, mortgage or otherwise convey any
portion of the Development Property except as permitted in the Agreement.
Section 7.4. HRA's Option to Cure Default on First Mortgage. Any First Mortgage
executed by Developer with respect to the Development Property, or any improvements thereon,
shall provide that, in the event that Developer is in default thereunder, the mortgagee, within ten
(10) days after it has declared or given notice to Developer of a default, shall notify the HRA in
writing of:
(a)
the fact of the default;
(b) the elements of the default; and
(c) the actions required to cure the default.
The HRA shall have the right to cure any such default which occurs prior to issuance of
the Certificate of Completion. The HRA shall have a period of 35 days after notice from a
Holder to effect a cure, provided that the HRA gives Developer advance written notice of its
intent to cure. In the event of such cure prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Completion, the
HRA shall thereupon be entitled, in addition to and without limitation upon any other rights or
remedies to which it may be entitled, to reimbursement from Developer or any successor or
assignee of any costs and expenses incurred by the HRA in curing such default. Interest shall
accrue on any amounts due the HRA under this paragraph at the reference rate of interest then in
effect at U.S. Bank Minneapolis, N.A. until such amounts are paid, and such amounts shall result
in the creation of a lien on the Development Property in favor of the HRA, subordinate to the lien
of any First Mortgage.

DECLARATION
DECLARATION OF RESTRICTIONS AND COVENANTS
AND AFFIDAVIT CONCERNING REAL PROPERTY CONTAMINATED WITH
HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES
(Lot 1, Block 2, Schaper Addition, Hennepin County)
(Redevelopment Parcel)
THIS DECLARATION AND AFFIDAVIT is made by the Hou~ing and Redevelopment
Authority in and for the City of Golden Valley (hereinafter "HRA"). The facts stated herein by the
HRA are stated under oath and are intended to fulfill the disclosure requirements of Minn. Stat.
~ 115B.16, subd. 2 (2002).
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the HRA is the fee owner of certain real property located in Hennepin County,
Minnesota, as described herein (the "Property"); and
WHEREAS, a portion of the Property was the site of release(s) of certain hazardous
substances or pollutants and contaminants; and
WHEREAS, demolition debris was dumped at the property during the 1950's and 1960's,
and included wood, brick, concrete, roofing materials, asphalt, and broken battery materials. The
primary contaminates detected at the Property include polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (P AHs)
from the roof materials, asphalt, and other tarry materials, and lead from the battery casings;
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Land Recycling Act of 1992, as amended, the HRA, and City of
Golden Valley ("City"), acting together, requested technical assistance and liability protection from
the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency ("MPCA") Voluntary Investigation and Cleanup (VIe)
Program on March 16, 1994; and
D-1
Resolution 03-08 - Continued
September 9, 2003
EXHIBIT C
WHEREAS, the HRA and City, acting together, conducted an investigation of the extent and
magnitude of the soil and ground water contamination at the property in 1994. The HRA and City's
goal was to adequately address the environmental problems associated with the disposal areas and
also achieve the beneficial redevelopment of the property. The investigation revealed that most of
the debris was placed on the Site as fill in wetland areas. The HRA and City prepared a Response
Action Plan (RAP) in April 1997 that was approved by the MPCA staff on May 7, 1997. The RAP
activities included clearing trees and brush from the dump area, consolidating several debris
stockpiles with the dump debris, placing a clean soil cover over the debris, and imposing institutional
controls; and
WHEREAS, the RAP was implemented during 1997 - 1998, involving the re-grading of the
dump debris, installing the soil cover, and planting vegetation. The HRA/City conducted inspections
. during 1999 and 2000 to assess the integrity of the soil cover and the condition of the shorelines
along a wetland on the west side of the property and along a storm water pond. The annual
.
.
inspections revealed that the soil cover and shorelines were intact and there were no areas of possible
exposure to dump debris. The HRA/City also conducted two rounds of annual ground water
monitoring, which did not show detections of lead or PARs in any of the samples; and
WHEREAS, the HRA/City has successfully implemented the RAP, based on the follow-up
inspections and monitoring. In addition, the MPCA staff has determined the Property does not
present a risk to human health or the environment, and removed the Property from the state's
Permanent List of Priorities during June 2002; and
WHEREAS, the HRA has agreed to place a Restrictive Covenant on the Property for the
purpose of protecting public health or welfare or the environment.
NOW, THEREFORE, the HRA makes the following declarations as to limitations,
D-2
.
.

EXHIBIT C
boring, drilling, grading, or construction activities that compromise the soil cover over the debris or
expose or relocate the buried demolition debris on the Property. The redeveloper of the Property
shall submit a reasonable management plan which reasonably minimizes any environmental risks
associated with redeveloping the Property. Once such a reasonable management plan has been
approved by the MPCA, such boring, drilling, grading and other construction activities may be
undertaken to the extent such activities comply with the tenus of the plan. The MPCA's approval
may include conditions which the MPCA deems reasonable and necessary to protect public health or
welfare or the environment, and shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Maintenance Requirements of Section 3 of this Declaration.
5. Reservations.
Nothing contained in this Declaration shall in any way prohibit, restrict or limit the
HRA, its successors or assigns, from fully conveying, transferring, occupying or using the Property
for all purposes not inconsistent with the Restrictions or the Maintenance Requirements.
6. Duration; Amendment.
In accordance with Minn. Stat. ~ 115B.17, subd. 15 and Minn. Stat. ~ 84C.02(c), this
Declaration and the covenants, grants and Restrictions herein are unlimited in duration unless
terminated, released and/or amended with the written consent of the Commissioner or her successor,
such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Declaration and
the covenants, grants and Restrictions set forth herein may be terminated, released and/or amended
upon the occurrence and satisfaction of the following conditions:
a. Soil, ground water, and/or surface water sampling is conducted within the
Property with prior written notice to and in accordance with a plan approved by the MPCA, such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld; and
b.
based on such samples the MPCA determines that contaminants in the soil,

MPCA finds that the conditions set forth in Section 2 ofthis Declaration are inadequate to protect
public health or welfare or the environment as set forth in the MPCA's May 7, 1997 RAP approval
letter.
If the HRA and the Commissioner agree to amend this Declaration, or if the Commissioner
decides to terminate or release this Declaration, the Commissioner shall, within 60 days after receipt
of written request from the owner of the Property, execute and deliver to the owner an instrument in
recordable form, amending, terminating, or releasing this Declaration.
