Old Business 5. New Business A. River West Development Area 1. Resolution No. 3594 (Disposition Offering Price of Twenty-Seven Vacant Lots NNN) Joseph Molnar Presented Resolution No. 3594 (Disposition Offering Price of Twenty-Seven Vacant Lots NNN). Resolution No. 3594 is the disposition of twenty-seven vacant lots in the near northwest neighborhood. At the last meeting, the RDC accepted the properties from Board of Public Works. The city of South Bend has owned the lots which we received through a tax sale process with the county. The lots are vacant. The minimum bid for the twenty-seven lots is $73,849 which is the average of two appraisals and are being packaged together. South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting – March 14, 2024 The city is looking to capitalize on the recent growth in the NNN with multiple housing developments in the neighborhood. The lots are north of Lincoln Way and south of Portage Avenue. We have had interest in both of the areas. A map was shown of the area. To the east of the area is a proposed new pedestrian bridge. A proposed larger development was outlined. The Allen Edwin project. The Advantix project. There are properties BPW transferred to Habitat for Humanity for building. BPW also transferred a few other properties to the NNN for affordable housing. The Coal Line Trail Phase III runs along the railroad right away. There is a lot of development in this section and staff believes this is a good time to put the twenty-seven properties online. This resolution will set the disposition offering price. The bids must align with the River West Development area guidelines and the zoning for those properties. The bids are zoned U1 or U2 which are single family, duplex or fourplex homes. Commissioner Wax asked if this is an all or nothing appraisal and would we consider changing zoning. Mr. Molnar stated that it is listed as all and would like to keep them together and keep the current zoning parameters. Mr. Bauer states on a duplex development we are willing to explore especially special exception. Upon a motion by Commissioner Relos, seconded by Commissioner Wax, the motion carried unanimously, the Commission approved Resolution No. 3594 (Disposition Offering Price of Twenty-Seven Vacant Lots NNN) submitted on Thursday, March 14, 2024. 2.Approval of Bid Specifications (Twenty-Seven Vacant Lots NNN) Joseph Molnar Presented Approval of Bid Specifications (Twenty-Seven Vacant Lots NNN). Staff is requesting approval of the bid specifications as presented. Commission approval is requested. Upon a motion by Commissioner Relos, seconded by Commissioner Wax, the motion carried unanimously, the Commission approved Approval of Bid Specifications (Twenty-Seven Vacant Lots NNN) submitted on Thursday, March 14, 2024. 3.Request to Advertise (Twenty-Seven Vacant Lots NNN) Joseph Molnar Presented Request to Advertise (Twenty-Seven Vacant Lots NNN). Staff is requesting approval to Advertise the disposition posting in the South Bend Tribune on Friday, March 22, 2024, and Friday, March 29, 2024. Commission approval is requested. Upon a motion by Commissioner Relos, seconded by Commissioner Wax, the motion carried unanimously, the Commission approved Request to Advertise (Twenty-Seven Vacant Lots NNN) submitted on Thursday, March 14, 2024. South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting – March 14, 2024 4.Second Amendment to Purchase Agreement (Monreaux) Joseph Molnar Presented Second Amendment to Purchase Agreement (Monreaux). The Monreaux was approved for tax credits by the state of Indiana in Fall 2023. This second amendment extends the closing date until the end of 2024. We were hoping for summer closing but are allowing time to work through the environmental review. The project is for sixty units with fourteen at market rate and forty-six at affordable income restricted. The developer is working with a good architect that is taking cues from the larger South Bend architectural scene to make sure it fits well with our downtown. Commissioner Wax asked if this is tied to the completion date. Mr. Molnar states that whenever the closing happens, that is when the purchase agreement clock starts. As far as the credits they would need to be complete at the end of 2025 or beginning of 2026. Mr. Molnar will check and round back with the commissioners to make sure this does not jeopardize the project. Upon a motion by Secretary Sallie, seconded by Commissioner Relos, the motion carried unanimously, the Commission approved Second Amendment to Purchase Agreement (Monreaux) submitted on Thursday, March 14, 2024. 5.Real Estate Purchase Agreement (River Glen GCND Holdings, LLC) Caleb Bauer Presented Real Estate Purchase Agreement (River Glen GCND Holdings, LLC). This real estate purchase agreement is for the River Glen Office Park located across the river from Howard Park. This includes the three office buildings of the former Press Ganey headquarters. This parcel is 5.2 acres of 74,000 square feet of office space that has been vacant since 2021 with two- hundred ninety-two surface parking spaces. The proposed purchase price is $3.2M, which is well below the average of two independent appraisals. The agreement before you contemplates a forty-five-day due diligence period followed by a fifteen-day closing period. Staff has ordered phase ones on the site which we received back this morning. The city is recommending the purchase of the parcel based on the adopted Monroe Park/Edgewater Neighborhood Plan. Council adopted the plan in 2023 in which we call the Riverfront West area, which included the Crowe properties or former Press Ganey, the post office and everything in the area up to Jefferson Blvd. The neighbors weighed in on what they would like to see in the future. Mr. Bauer showed streets and building grids that were in the area in 1960s and current. A rough concept which is in the neighborhood plan is a reconnection to the urban street network. The city’s long-term goal is to reconnect Jefferson Blvd past the Century Center. This is a long-term vision. An illustration of what types of density of redevelopment we would like to see on the site. We would see more dense development occurring the closer you are to Jefferson and more density closer to Monroe. We do not anticipate having six-story buildings on Monroe Street where that could be viable near Jefferson. If the commission were to approve the South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting – March 14, 2024 purchase today in post-closing, staff would work to develop an RFP for developers to propose redevelopment of this site in alignment with the principles laid out in the Monroe/Edgewater neighborhood plan. Mr. Bauer stated that they have had development interest in this site and others in the area, but he is not at liberty to say with whom. There are no active conversations with developers at this site. We do expect to have multiple competitive proposals as part of an RFP. This site is one of the city’s top priorities as we move forward to READI 2.0 if we are awarded the seventy-five million that our region has applied for. The timeliness around this purchase and RFP is insuring we are issuing the RFP well in advance of READI 2.0 project deadline. Secretary Sallie asked for the time frame of the purchase and then development after the purchase. Mr. Bauer states if approved, closing would occur within sixty days from execution of today’s date. If all goes as planned, we anticipate issuing an RFP in early summer 2024. We would hope to have submissions back to RDC late summer, early fall. Submissions to READI 2.0 through the Regional Development Authority are fall to early winter 2024. Commissioner Relos asked if staff could adjust the street grid. Mr. Bauer stated that staff is willing to adjust the street grid in the future depending on needs. Upon a motion by Commissioner Relos, seconded by Commissioner Wax, the motion carried unanimously, the Commission approved Real Estate Purchase Agreement (River Glen GCND Holdings, LLC) submitted on Thursday, March 14, 2024. 6.Resolution No. 3595 (Approving Lease COSB Four Winds Field) Eric Horvath, Director Public Works Presented Resolution No. 3595 (Approving Lease COSB Four Winds Field). Staff is requesting approval in this first step of the rental revenue bonds for the Four Winds Field stadium renovation expansion. The project will modernize the existing stadium infrastructure, adding a full second level above the existing facility, renovating the primary seating areas and suites, adding a new 20,000 square foot four-story club and event space building and a new playground and splash pad with additional restrooms and space for retail and concession areas. The general project is estimated at $45M in construction cost. The first step is approving this resolution today so we can close in June to make the 2024 construction season right after ball season in September. Construction could immediately start the first stage and run through the off-season. Construction would continue through 2025 and be able to have it ready for opening day in 2026. South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting – March 14, 2024 Randy Rampola, Barnes & Thornburg, stated that the proposed structure of the financing is a lease financing with the Redevelopment Authority. We used this type of financing with the Morris Project. The primary source of revenue for that was the hotel/motel tax that was pledged to the project and to provide the best security for that bond to get the lowest interest rate and the most useful proceeds for the tax backup attached. The payment structure of this bond is utilizing the professional sports development convention area revenues that are available now as a result of the legislative amendments last year that increased the amount of those revenues and also increased the territory that area encompasses. The revenues available are up to $5M. The lease revenue provided for a maximum lease rental of $4.76M for a term not to exceed twenty-years as part of the lease structure then that would also accompany the tax back up. We would then go into the bond market and get the best rating at the lowest interest rate, which allows the proceeds to be realized at the $45M level in the most efficient way. The revenues that are pledged by Common Council as part of their approval would be those PSCDA revenues. The city’s municipal advisor Crowe as done a similar analysis. They have worked with the Department of Revenue to show that the revenues going back before this area was created would generate well north of the $5M that would be available in the statute. Even during COVID the area’s revenue was just under $7M. Sales tax is also captured but it is the income tax that provides the historical coverage. The lease rental is set as a maximum of $4.76M. In section two of the lease which has the lease rental also states that once the bonds are sold, the lease rental will be reduced to match the exact debt service. That is the high side number that Crowe is estimating using the high side interest rate market. We need to have the maximum because we won’t be selling the bonds until June 2024, and we do not know if rates will be higher or lower. We start out with the maximum. The lease rental revenue is for 20 years through 2044. The lease rent on debt service will be lower that that and provide coverage. That would allow that extra coverage to 33% to 35% annually. Today’s action is asking the commission to approve the lease. On March 28, 2024, we would have a hearing. We would ask the Redevelopment Authority as well as Common Council for approval of the lease as well as their pledge of these revenues to be able to make the lease payments. Following that we would go for a rating and a bond sale. Right now, we would have the bond sale around Memorial Day which allows us to close early June 2024. Commissioner Relos asked if there would be TIF backup. Mr. Rampola states that they are not anticipating using TIF just the PSCDA revenue. Commissioner Relos asked if there is not TIF being used why does it come through Redevelopment Commission. South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting – March 14, 2024 Mr. Rampola stated that it needed to be a lease revenue bond given the structure with the intention to use the tax backup. Because it is an Economic Development project, it makes sense to use the Redevelopment Commission. Commissioner Wax asked if it would be Common Council and Administration pledging the PSCDA dollars to the Redevelopment Commission. Is that something they can do now. To oversimplify, the Redevelopment Commission is leasing the stadium property from the Redevelopment Authority for an amount determined later. That way we could get the bond now. Mr. Rampola states what the financing mechanism allows you to monetize that revenue stream over the period of years to generate the cash. The stadium is currently owned by the Park Board so the Park Board will need to transfer title of the stadium to the Redevelopment Authority for lease to the Redevelopment Commission. For all intents and purposes, the operations of the stadium will remain in the parks department. It is similar to the Morris project as operations of the venue will not change the effect of financing. Dick Nussbaum, attorney at 210 S Michigan St., South Bend 46601. About a year ago he was a member of a team that was able to get some legislation passed with the help of other local representatives. This legislation expanded the professional sports development area in South Bend and extended the time frame within which revenues could be collected so that a revenue stream of $100M every twenty years was created. You hope that things will happen. The revenue stream is happening because it started in July at the level $5M a year and it is generating in excess of that. It is great to see this come to fruition without any tax levy. It is nice to say that we have a tax backup, but no tax backup will be used. We have made it clear to the public that it is being captured and kept here is this community. It is nice to provide an asset in terms of the ability of our team to stay in South Bend due to additional standards that major league baseball is putting forth on major teams. There are other communities that are trying to meet the expectations. Chattanooga is borrowing or bonding $100M to build a new stadium. This $45M to make improvements to the ballpark is a much more efficient way of maintaining a city facility that will be enjoyed by the public for many years to come. Vice-President Warner stated that as we go through this it’s important to remind folks that thanks to those legislators that were able to capture these state tax dollars and invest them in that neighborhood and the community and the park itself that draws a lot of people. Commissioner Wax states that it is one of his favorite examples of good legislative action. When you know a good idea is non-partisan and everyone works together to come up with something good. We have got to this point with a lot of teamwork and a lot of moving parts from everywhere, local and state to come to fruition; it is very exciting. Now that is at our end, there are still a lot of moving parts we talked about VPA, RDA, RDC and Common Council but to see everybody have a unified vision and unified goal working together to make this South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting – March 14, 2024 happen is something to be proud of. Upon a motion by Commissioner Relos, seconded by Commissioner Wax, the motion carried unanimously, the Commission approved Resolution No. 3595 (Approving Lease COSB Four Winds Field) submitted on Thursday, March 14, 2024. B.River West Development Area 1.Budget Request (LaSalle Colfax Design Amendment #1) Leslie Biek Presented a Budget Request (LaSalle Colfax Design Amendment #1). This is a request for a design amendment that we have with JTR. We are moving on to Colfax, which is a similar scope of project on Colfax, adding in, perforated bike path and trying to put in foot traffic with a lot of the similar features that we did on the LaSalle project. The LaSalle project did eat into the budget due to unforeseen conditions and the bidding climate we have experienced in the last couple years. This budget request will allow us to complete the full design and bid for construction next year. The county is doing bridge deck replacement on Colfax so we are coordinating our work with their work so the road will not be shut down multiple times. Commissioner Relos asked what the scope of work is. Ms. Biek noted it is the length from Eddie with the primary streetscape portion from the bridge to Hill Street. Commissioner Relos asked about the grade school drop off times at Colfax. They are already backed up; will this make it narrower. Ms. Biek noted that they will be working on the design plan. We will definitely be working with the school, and we worked with them a lot for the LaSalle project to make sure that they were able to do the dismissals and drop off. Commissioner Wax asked the last time a larger traffic study was done for that area. We are doing a lot of piece meal to determine the road diet. At the same time, we want to keep downtown safe but want to make sure downtown is accessible and especially as we are anticipating projects over the next number of years with new apartments and hundreds of jobs. Ms. Biek stated they are not trying to make it more difficult. They are trying to make it safer by reducing the speeds when you come downtown, so we are using the same daily traffic, but we are making it a little more inconvenient. We have a graduate student that has been modeling the downtown and he is especially looking at the effects on LaSalle, Colfax, and Jefferson. He has shown that they need to all be the same so that traffic is dispersed equally through the area. Commissioner Wax stated that with traffic calming studies it has shown we are not making people better drivers we are just moving them somewhere else. We are always going to be chasing the faster or more aggressive drivers. It is concerning that we are trying to make downtown South Bend the place to be, but South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting – March 14, 2024 we are also trying to make it inefficient to drive. He does not see how those two will work to make it safer. Mr. Bauer stated the goal in the streetscape projects is not to restrict or reduce vehicular traffic. If you equalize accessibility of the streetscapes, two modes of transportation, particularly the retail restaurant, and residential growth we have seen in the East Bank has added a lot of vibrancy to the neighborhood. What we are hoping to resolve is to ensure that those pedestrian connections are safe but also maximizing on street parking on streets like Colfax, where we believe we can get more on street parking. In a better layout from the current design. There have been some really good analysis of road diets and speed reduction; John Hopkins University had an extensive study release. The study takes a look at the public safety side and how lane narrowing and raised intersections significantly improve public safety and reduce fatal, injury related traffic accidents by a notable amount. This is a nationwide study. The trade off is making our streets safer for drivers or pedestrians and may add a few minutes to the commute time. Mr. Horvath stated studies have shown that economic development has suffered from efficient streets. We have seen that in downtown. We have taken a look at what our streets are used for beyond just vehicular modes. We are not just looking at how fast we can move from point A to point B. We are looking at what streets provide to the community beyond the ability to move traffic because they do provide more than just moving traffic. That is the part of how we have to design the downtown street system. A lot of studies will show that when you do make the street less efficient in downtown the economic development will actually increase. Mr. Bauer added that he agrees that traffic calming redirection on to one street can lead to traffic flows on another. We know that engineering has really looked at that with the rollout of the full traffic calming plan. From the police department side, they are focused on traffic enforcement, and it has really picked up. There is an increase in traffic violations issued by the police department; that has become a new strategic focus for them. This is a multifaceted approach. Commissioner Wax asked looking at the studies; does that just factor in the improved streets or does it also factor in the surrounding. Mr. Bauer will send the study to Commissioner’s. Commissioner Wax stated that he would be a lot more comfortable with this if there was also investment in making the street more efficient in a way where they are working on the streetlights. It is a big concern because while it is safer, it is a pain in the neck to drive downtown. He would like to see something where it does not negatively impact. Commissioner Relos stated that since the street changes downtown the concerning point is sitting at a stoplight for what seems to be five minutes with no traffic coming the other way and it seems to always be that way. It would be nice to adjust the motion detectors, so a car does not sit there idle for a long time. Are South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting – March 14, 2024 we looking at that system. Ms. Biek noted that we are looking at improving the detection. It is not finished yet and the signals are not optimized to how they will be in the future. Commissioner Wax added that the technology with both the hardware and software are much better than it used to be. They could change the traffic pattern from morning to afternoon times and guide the flow of traffic. Commissioner Relos stated that he believes South Bend is one of the most convenient areas to get from one side to the other in 10 minutes. It is just frustrating to sit at a light downtown where no one is coming from opposite of traffic for any length of time. Mr. Horvath noted that they are upgrading intersections and putting in new technology. It will be able to optimize traffic. Ms. Biek noted that we have submitted for a grant, and we hope to get this one so we can be eligible for a citywide trial. If we do, we can apply for the greater federal grant opportunity. Mr. Horvath stated that we are pleased to be able to adjust the system. Upon a motion by Commissioner Relos, seconded by Secretary Sallie, the motion carried unanimously, the Commission approved Budget Request (LaSalle Colfax Design Amendment #1) submitted on Thursday, March 14, 2024. 6.Progress Reports A.Tax Abatement •Joseph Molnar stated that at the Common Council meeting the Council approved the following: • 8-year real property tax abatement for Momentum Development Group for the Salvation Army Building. A confirming resolution will be heard at the next council meeting. Demolition began immediately and construction will begin soon. • Mr. Bauer noted that $6.4M in private investment and based on the lifetime of that abatement we will receive more than twice the property tax revenue than we would have with the status quo. It is good to get the building back to productive use. B.Common Council •None C.Other •Mr. Molnar stated that the Redevelopment Commission holds the title for the former Gates Service Center. •Redevelopment Commission has closed with RealAmerica on the LIHTEC portion of their sites. Groundbreaking will happen soon. •Commissioner Wax asked for a better description on the claims list. •Rosa Tomas noted that she will follow up with Admin & Finance on that.

The Temporary License Agreement shall provide that Beacon and/or Memorial remain responsible for all costs of snow plowing, maintaining and insuring the Parcels and contain customary representation and indemnity of GLC and the Commission regarding any such use or injuries on such Parcels. The term of the Temporary License Agreement will remain in effect until such time as redevelopment activity commences on the site, and Beacon and/or Memorial provides its written consent to the termination of the Temporary License Agreement, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. GLC shall provide at least thirty (30) days advance notice of its intent to terminate the Temporary License Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Temporary License Agreement be terminated prior to the construction of the surface parking lot and ancillary projects associated therewith, as set forth in the Beacon Development Agreement. (i)Other Agreements. In furtherance of the future development projects, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Commission and Beacon shall enter into, or cause the execution of the Beacon Development Agreement, and concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Commission and GLC shall enter into, or cause the execution of the GLC Development Agreement. In the event that either of these agreements are not executed, this Agreement shall become null and void. 2.3 Post Closing Obligations. After the Closing, the following obligations will also be in effect: (a)Ground Lease. GLC and the Commission shall enter into a ground lease agreement, as contemplated in the GLC Development Agreement, upon which the Commission shall construct new parking garages (the “Parking Garages”). (b)Restriction of Competitive Uses. Due to the close proximity of the Parcels to the property generally located at 615 N. Michigan Street, South Bend, Indiana, and more particularly identified as Parcel Nos. 71-08-01-305-001.000-025 and 71-08-01-305- 019.000-026, which is owned by Memorial and operated by Beacon (“Hospital Site”), Beacon desires to restrict certain competitive uses (“Competitive Uses”) from being performed on the Parcels by businesses that are not affiliated with Memorial or Beacon. “Competitive Uses” shall include operation of the Parcels as an inpatient hospital providing emergency or inpatient intensive care services or for provision of inpatient or outpatient surgeries. Memorial and Beacon further desire to have rights with respect to other listed uses including urgent care services, medical diagnostic and imaging services, outpatient 5 therapy services, and in-patient rehabilitation services (“Listed Uses”). The Listed Uses will not include services determined to be office-based services that do not require facility licensure. This Restriction of Competitive Uses shall be set out on a deed of conveyance of the Parcels (or form of Declaration of Restrictive Competitive Uses encumbering the Parcels) and shall constitute a restrictive covenant which runs with the land in perpetuity and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and to their licensees, successors, lessees and assigns, for so long as Beacon is operating the Hospital Site for a Competitive Use. GLC agrees that it shall not permit any portion of the Parcels to be operated for a Competitive Use without Beacon’s prior written consent, and that GLC shall provide Beacon with a right of first refusal to match the terms of and lease (or purchase, as the case may be) any portion of the Parcels which GLC intends to lease or sell for a Listed Use (the “Matching Right”). (c)Exercise of the Matching Right. In the event the Matching Right is exercised by Beacon, the process shall be as follows: (i)Contemporaneously with the mutual execution of a letter of intent or other similar agreement relating to the sale or lease of a portion of the Parcels to a business involved in performing a Listed Use (the “LOI”), GLC will provide Beacon with written notice of the LOI using the same notice procedures set forth in Section 5.5 (“Notice and Demands”). (ii)Following the receipt of the notice regarding an LOI, Beacon shall have thirty (30) calendar days to elect to match the terms of the LOI, and Beacon’s failure to respond within such thirty (30) calendar days shall be deemed (a) a consent to the proposed sale or lease for a Listed Use, and (b) such portion of the Parcels shall no longer be subject to the terms hereof with respect to the Listed Use. (iii)In the event that Beacon provides GLC with notice that elects to match the terms of the LOI, GLC shall immediately terminate any discussions with the proposed tenant or purchaser and provide Beacon with a substantially similar agreement as was contemplated in the LOI (the “Matching Agreement”).Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Matching Agreement, Beacon shall accept the terms of the Matching Agreement and thereafter consummate such transaction as contemplated in the Matching Agreement. If Beacon fails to accept the Matching Agreement within thirty (30) days (a) the portion of the Transferred Parcels subject to the LOI shall be released from this restriction for Listed Use, and (b) GLC shall have the right to (i) reengage with the original or any future proposed tenant or purchaser for such space, and/or (ii) seek any and all damages that might result from Beacon's delay. SECTION 3. COOPERATION IN THE EVENT OF LEGAL CHALLENGE. 3.1 Cooperation. In the event of any administrative, legal, or equitable action or other proceeding instituted by any person not a party to this Agreement challenging the validity of any provision of this Agreement, the Parties shall cooperate in defending such action or proceeding to 6 settlement or final judgment including all appeals. Each Party shall select its own legal counsel. In no event shall any Party be required to bear the fees and costs of another Party’s attorneys. The Parties agree that if any other provision of this Agreement, or this Agreement as a whole, is invalidated, rendered null, or set aside by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Parties agree to be bound by the terms of this Section 3.1, which shall survive such invalidation, nullification, or setting aside. SECTION 4. DEFAULTS; DISPUTE RESOLUTION; INTERPRETATION. 4.1 Default. Any failure by any Party to perform any term or provision of this Agreement, which failure continues uncured for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice of such failure from the other Party, shall constitute a default under this Agreement. Any notice given pursuant to the preceding sentence shall specify the nature of the alleged failure and, where appropriate, the manner in which said failure satisfactorily may be cured. Upon the occurrence of a default under this Agreement, the Parties shall proceed to resolve the default in accordance with Section 4.2 (“Dispute Resolution”). If the default is cured within thirty (30) days after the notice described in this Section 4.1, then no default shall exist and the noticing Party shall take no further action. 4.2 Dispute Resolution. The Parties agree they will attempt in good faith to resolve all claims, controversies, or disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement or an alleged breach of this Agreement by negotiation. The Parties acknowledge that disputes arising under this Agreement are likely to be complex and they desire to streamline and minimize the cost of resolving such disputes. Therefore, if a dispute cannot be resolved by negotiation, the Parties agree they shall next seek to resolve any disputes through mediation administered by an agreed upon mediator. To the extent that a dispute is not settled by mediation within 180 days of the commencement of the mediation, or such further period as the Parties shall hereafter agree in writing, the dispute or any unresolved portion thereof shall be decided by binding arbitration in St. Joseph County, Indiana. The procedures specified herein shall be the sole and exclusive methods for the resolution of disputes between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement. However, a Party may seek a temporary restraining order, a preliminary injunction or other preliminary judicial relief if in its judgment, such action is necessary to avoid irreparable damage. Despite such action, the Parties shall continue to participate in good faith in the procedures specified here. All applicable statutes of limitation shall be tolled while the procedures specified here are pending. The Parties will take any action required to effectuate such tolling. 4.3 Reversion. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Parcels are currently being utilized by Beacon/Memorial as employee parking near the Hospital Site, and through the Beacon Development Agreement and GLC Development Agreement, Beacon will continue to have employee parking available. The GLC Development Agreement includes certain commitments from the Commission to construct Parking Garages on the Parcels near the Hospital Site. The Beacon Development Agreement includes certain commitments from the Commission through which the Commission will demolish an office building and the construct a surface parking lot on the site of the demolished building (as defined in the Beacon Development Agreement as the “Local Public Improvements”) for Beacon’s use as employee parking. The Beacon Development 7 Agreement further includes a commitment from the Commission to reserve certain parking spaces within the newly constructed Parking Garages for Beacon’s use as employee parking. In the event that construction of the Parking Garage that will provide parking for Beacon employees as defined in the Beacon Development Agreement, as contemplated in the GLC Development Agreement, does not commence within five (5) years of the Effective Date of this Agreement (the “Required Commencement Date”), Beacon shall have the option to request reversion of the Parcels described in Exhibit A, and GLC will convey all of its rights and interests in the Parcels to Beacon, subject to Beacon’s prior payment to the Commission of the total cost expended by the Commission to complete the Local Public Improvements, as more fully described in Beacon Development Agreement (the “Reversion”). If Beacon does not pay the Commission the total costs expended to complete the Local Public Improvements, GLC shall not be obligated to convey its rights and interests in the Parcels to Beacon. Beacon must elect to request the Reversion of the Parcels as described in this Section, if at all, prior to the Commission’s commencement of construction of the Parking Garage and in no event later than one (1) year after the Required Commencement Date. Failure by Beacon to request the Reversion of the Parcels within this time frame shall be deemed Beacon’s acknowledgement that the Required Commencement Date has been met, and the Parcels shall no longer be subject to the Reversion. 4.4 Force Majeure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, none of the Parties shall be deemed to be in default where delays in performance or failures to perform are due to, and a necessary outcome of, war, insurrection, strikes or other labor disturbances, walk-outs, riots, floods, earthquakes, fires, casualties, acts of God, acts of terrorism, restrictions imposed or mandated by governmental entities, enactment of conflicting state or federal laws or regulations, new or supplemental environments regulations, contract defaults by third parties, or similar basis for excused performance which is not within the reasonable control of the Party to be excused (each, an event of “Force Majeure”). Upon the request of any of the Parties, a reasonable extension of any date or deadline set forth in this Agreement due to such cause will be granted in writing for a period necessitated by the event of Force Majeure, or longer as may be mutually agreed upon by all the Parties. 4.5 Interpretation; Governing Law.

The Parties agree they will attempt in good faith to resolve all claims, controversies, or disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement or an alleged breach of this Agreement by negotiation. The Parties acknowledge that disputes arising under this Agreement are likely to be complex and they desire to streamline and minimize the cost of resolving such disputes. Therefore, if a dispute cannot be resolved by negotiation, the Parties agree they shall next seek to resolve any disputes through mediation administered by an agreed upon mediator. To the extent that a dispute is not settled by mediation within 180 days of the commencement of the mediation, or such further period as the Parties shall hereafter agree in writing, the dispute or any unresolved portion thereof shall be decided by binding arbitration in St. Joseph County, Indiana. The procedures specified herein shall be the sole and exclusive methods for the resolution of disputes between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement. However, a Party may seek a temporary restraining order, a preliminary injunction or other preliminary judicial relief if in its judgment, such action is necessary to avoid irreparable damage. Despite such action, the Parties shall continue to participate in good faith in the procedures specified here. All applicable statutes of limitation shall be tolled while the procedures specified here are pending. The Parties will take any action required to effectuate such tolling. 8.3 Force Majeure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, none of the Parties shall be deemed to be in default where delays in performance or failures to perform are due to, and a necessary outcome of, war, insurrection, strikes or other labor disturbances, walk-outs, riots, floods, earthquakes, fires, casualties, acts of God, acts of terrorism, restrictions imposed or mandated by governmental entities, enactment of conflicting state or federal laws or regulations, new or supplemental environments regulations, contract defaults by third parties, or similar basis for excused performance which is not within the reasonable control of the Party to be excused (each, an event of “Force Majeure”). Upon the request of any of the Parties, a reasonable extension of any date or deadline set forth in this Agreement due to such cause will be granted in writing for a period necessitated by the event of Force Majeure, or longer as may be mutually agreed upon by all the Parties. 8.4 Interpretation; Governing Law. This Agreement was negotiated by the Parties at arm’s length and each of the Parties hereto has reviewed the Agreement after the opportunity to consult with independent legal counsel.

RECITALS A.As of the Effective Date of this Lease, Landlord owns certain real property and improvements located in South Bend, Indiana, commonly known as parcel number 71-08-12-153- 003.000-026 and more particularly described in the description attached Exhibit 1 (the “Property”).

C.The Parties have agreed that Tenant will be able to continue occupying and using a portion of the existing space in the Property on the Effective Date for a limited time period and under the terms set forth herein. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and obligations set forth in this Lease, the adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows: 1.Leased Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord the 1st, 3rd, 4th and 5th Floors of the Property, as further depicted in the attached Exhibit 2 (the “Leased Premises”).

In consideration hereof, the Tenant covenants and agrees to pay all existing utility accounts in Tenant’s name before the Effective Date and other routine costs of building maintenance and daily operations incurred by Tenant during the Lease Term, as described in Section 9 of this Lease. Tenant shall keep all utilities currently in Tenant’s name throughout the term of this Lease, except as otherwise set forth herein. The Parties acknowledge that immediately prior to the Effective Date, Tenant owned and occupied the Property under a long-term lease and had sufficient utilities for its needs as of the Effective Date. If new utilities must be added or ITEM 5A3 2 accessed during the term of the Lease, Landlord may agree to allow the installation of such utility service, provided that the Parties negotiate in good faith a cost sharing agreement acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion. Rent shall be paid to Landlord as set forth below, in lawful United States currency without notice, demand, deduction, set-off, counterclaim or recoupment, and without relief from valuation or appraisement laws, in month installments commencing on the Effective Date and during the entire term on or before the first (1st) day of each calendar month, in advance. i.During the time Tenant leases the entirety of the Leased Premises, the rental amount payable shall be Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($7,500.00) per month, except for the initial month following the Effective Date, which shall be pro-rated. ii.In the occasion that Tenant vacates the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Floor of the Property and only occupies the 1st Floor of the Property, the rental amount payable shall be Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) per month. For the reduced rental rate to apply, Tenant must provide written notice to Landlord at least 45 days in advance of its intent to vacate the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Floors of the Leased Premises. In the event rent is not paid on or before the first day of the month it becomes due, Tenant shall also pay Landlord a late charge, which shall be equal to $150.00 per day for each day rent is late after the first of the month with a five (5) day grace period before late fees are charged. 4.Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord warrants that it is the owner in fee simple of the Property, and that it has full right and authority to enter into this Lease, subject to all easements, restrictions, liens, encumbrances, rights-of-way and other matters of record. Landlord agrees that if Tenant observes all of the terms and conditions of, and performs all of its obligations under, this Lease, then, at all times during the Term, subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, Tenant shall have the peaceful and quiet enjoyment of possession of the Property, without any manner of hindrance from parties claiming under, by, or through Landlord, except as otherwise set forth in Section 1 of this Lease and as communicated to Tenant. 5.Use.

Tenant shall continue to retain the same rights to parking during the term of this Lease as previously provided in the Ground Lease for the Property, including the roof of the parking garage and other spaces otherwise designated. The Property may not be used for any other purpose inconsistent with Tenant’s use before the Effective Date without the prior written approval of the Landlord. 6. Landlord Maintenance and Repairs.

Landlord shall be responsible for the alteration, renovation, repairs, replacement and maintenance of all gas, water, electricity, heating, ventilating, and cooling equipment and systems serving the Property (the “Utility Systems”); provided, however, that Landlord may bill Tenant for any repairs or replacement if Landlord’s consultant determines with reasonable certainty that the need to repair or replace the Utility Systems was solely and as a direct result of Tenant’s misuse thereof or Tenant’s failure to notify the Landlord of any malfunctioning. Except as provided in this Section 6, Landlord shall be obligated to make construction, reconstruction, alterations, renovations, maintenance, repairs, replacements, or improvements of any kind to or for the Property, or any fixtures or equipment contained therein. 7.Tenant Maintenance and Repairs.

Should the Landlord knowingly require the use or storage of any Hazardous Substances for any purpose allowed herein, except as otherwise noted, Landlord shall provide notice to Tenant of Landlord’s use or storage of such Hazardous Substance and the purpose thereof. Tenant may continue to store substances for maintenance of the pool facilities while this Lease remains active, but upon Landlord’s request, Tenant must remove any remaining Hazardous Substances upon termination of the Lease. 4 9.Utility Services. The Parties acknowledge that Tenant owned and occupied the Property pursuant to the terms of a Ground Lease immediately prior to entering into this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that the Property previously contained the necessary mains, meters, connections, and conduits for gas, water, and sewer facilities and electric service to the Property, as well as equipment, products, goods, services, materials, and supplies needed for proper operation of the heating ventilating and cooling system (“HVAC System”) located in the Property.

At all times, Landlord shall provide the equipment, products, goods, services, materials, and supplies needed for proper operation of the HVAC System as of the Effective Date and through the term of the Lease. 10.Loss of Use.

Tenant Abandonment. Tenant understands and agrees if it abandons the Leased Premises during the term of this tenancy, Tenant shall not be relieved of its duties and obligations under this Lease before the date of abandonment. Exercise of Tenant’s rights under the Compliance or Termination provisions shall not constitute abandonment. 12.Force Majeure. With the exception of the payment of Rent, in the event that either Party is unable to perform any of its obligations under this Lease, or to enjoy any of its benefits, because of pandemic; epidemic; water, gas, fire, explosion, or other casualty; natural disaster; or decrees of governmental bodies not the fault of the affected Party (“Force Majeure Event”), the Party who has been so affected shall immediately or as soon as is reasonably possible under the circumstances give notice to the other Party and shall do everything possible to resume performance. Upon receipt of such notice, all obligations under this Lease shall be immediately suspended.

Seller has full power and authority to enter into and carry out the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of the Property and Rights to Purchaser, without obtaining the approval or consent of any other party. Seller’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all other agreements or instruments contemplated hereby, including the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of the Property and Rights, will be the legal, valid and binding obligations of Seller enforceable in accordance with their terms. (b)No Liens. Seller holds fee simple title to the entire Property and Rights and to Seller’s actual knowledge and without any independent investigation, inquiry or investigation, there are no recorded or unrecorded mortgage, judgment or similar liens, security interests or other encumbrances against the Premises which will not be satisfied at or prior to Closing. (c)Litigation. To Seller’s actual knowledge and without any independent investigation, inquiry or investigation, there is no action, temporary restraining order, injunction, suit, or proceeding, at law or in equity, or before or by a judicial or administrative court or agency, relating to the Property or Rights, including but not limited REAL ESTATE PURCHASE AGREEMENT PAGE 5 to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, relating to hazardous substances or hazardous wastes having been placed, held, located, released, disposed, stored or dumped on or at the Property. (d)Contracts and Agreements. Seller is not a party to any executed, valid and binding contract to sell the Property or Rights other than this Agreement. Seller is not a party to any other contract, agreement, or other commitment which is directly related to the Property (other than the Leases or as listed as Permitted Exceptions) that will be binding following closing. (e)Leases. All Leases provided to Purchaser are in full force and effect and to Seller’s actual knowledge, other than as may be reflected on a rent roll of Leases and without any independent investigation, inquiry, or investigation, neither Seller nor any tenant is in violation of any lease. Seller has not received advanced payment of rent other than those monthly rents paid in advance. Seller shall have provided a rent roll of Leases to Purchaser prior to this agreement’s execution and also at the Closing. At Closing, Seller shall represent and warrant to Purchaser that all representations and warranties of Seller in this Agreement remain true and correct as of the Closing, except for any changes in any such representations or warranties that occur and are disclosed by Seller to Purchaser expressly and in writing at any time upon their occurrence (prior to Closing). If there is any change in any representation or warranty and Seller does not cure or correct such changes prior to the Closing, then Purchaser may, at Purchaser 's option, (i) close and consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, or (ii) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller and thereafter the parties hereto shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder. 11.Representations of Purchaser. Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller the following as of the date of this Agreement: Purchaser has the right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligation hereunder and the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser shall not violate, or put Purchaser in default under any agreement, contract, instrument, mortgage, indenture or other similar document binding upon Purchaser. Purchaser’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all other agreements or instruments contemplated hereby, including the purchase and assumption of the Property and Rights, will be the legal, valid and binding obligations of Purchaser enforceable in accordance with their terms. In the event that any one or more of the foregoing warranties or representations shall be untrue as of the date hereof and/or as of Closing, the same shall be deemed a default hereunder by Purchaser entitling Seller to pursue any and all remedies on account thereof provided hereunder and/or at law or in equity. 12.Risk of Loss, Condemnation or Destruction. Risk of loss shall remain on Seller prior to Closing. If prior to the Closing of this transaction, all or any substantial part of the Property is condemned, damaged or destroyed, Purchaser shall have the option of either applying the proceeds of any condemnation award or insurance policies to reduce the total purchase price payable by Purchaser herein or terminating this Agreement by delivering written notice of termination pursuant to this Section to Seller within ten (10) days of the date Seller notifies Purchaser in writing of such condemnation, damages or destruction. 13.Prorations at Closing. General real estate taxes and assessments (collectively, REAL ESTATE PURCHASE AGREEMENT PAGE 6 “Taxes”) levied or assessed against the Property, and which are due and payable as of the Closing Date, shall be paid by Seller at or before Closing. All Taxes with respect to time periods prior to Closing (which are a lien against the Property, but not yet due and payable) shall be prorated based on the number of days in the year in which the Closing occurs that each party owned the Property, and credited against the Purchase Price (together with any unpaid taxes for prior years) and Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of any such taxes as they become due. The Parties agree that (i) Seller shall also provide Purchaser a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to any rent received by Seller under the Leases related solely to time periods from and after Closing and (ii) Purchaser shall provide Seller with a credit for any rent which should have been received by Seller under the Leases related solely to time periods up to the Closing. The Parties agree that expenses, such as utility expenses serving the Property shall be prorated such that Seller receives rent and is responsible for all such expenses related to periods prior to Closing, and Purchaser receives rent and is responsible for such services provided on and after Closing. 14.Remedies. (a)Rights of Seller. In the event that Purchaser fails to purchase the Property in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or otherwise defaults in the performance of Purchaser’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement, for any reason whatsoever, other than Seller’s default or as otherwise permitted hereunder, Seller shall have the right to pursue any and all remedies available to it including, without limitation, specific performance of this Agreement. (b)Rights of Purchaser. In the event that Seller shall default in the performance of Seller’s obligations hereunder at or prior to Closing, for any reason whatsoever, other than Purchaser’s default or as otherwise permitted hereunder, Purchaser, at Purchaser’s option, may (i) purchase the Property notwithstanding such default pursuant to the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement, in which event such default shall be waived, or (ii) shall have the right but not the obligation to pursue any and all remedies available to it including, without limitation, specific performance of this Agreement; provided that any suit for specific performance must be filed and served within sixty (60) days of Seller’s default and Purchaser hereby waives the right to bring suit at any later date. Purchaser shall give Title Company and Seller written notice of Purchaser’s election of such remedy. (c)Additional Rights.

Each Party represents and warrants to the other that it has dealt with no broker, finder or other person with respect to this Agreement contemplated for the purchase and sale of the Property and that no other broker will be entitled to a commission with regard to this transaction. The Parties agree to indemnify each other from and against any claims related to its breach of the foregoing representation. 17.Miscellaneous. (a) Time is of the essence of this Agreement. (b)Purchaser may not assign this Agreement without first obtaining Seller’s advance written consent; and any assignment in contravention of this provision shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may assign this Agreement to any related or affiliated entity without Seller’s advance consent but with advance written notice to Seller; and regardless of consent, no assignment shall release the Purchaser herein named from any obligation or liability under this Agreement. Any permitted assignee shall be deemed to have made any and all representations and warranties made by Purchaser or Seller hereunder, as if the assignee were the original signatory hereto.

(circle one) River West; River East; South Side; Douglas Road; West Washington PURPOSE OF REQUEST: Venues Parks and Art and Public Works are requesting $140,000.00 from RWDA to enable us to use a “Random Plank” building cladding to maintain the original design intent of the architect. SPECIFICS: The original bid included metal cladding panels, but unfortunately, the architect failed to specify the cladding as intended by the design and as seen in the building renderings. A large portion of the building will be covered in metal building cladding that is installed as planks. The included cladding meets the functional requirements, but it lacks the desired aesthetic impact due to its monolithic appearance. Given the building's longevity (lasting 50 years or more), we believe it's important to invest in its visual appeal. Upgrading to a Random Plank cladding design, which was the initial intent, will significantly enhance the overall aesthetic of the Dream Center. This design choice aligns with the original vision and creates a more visually engaging exterior. This cost increase reflects the difference between the originally envisioned "Random Plank" design and the currently included more basic cladding. If the architect had included the correct specification for the Random Plank cladding, we believe that the additional cost would have been reflected in the original bid, and we would have had a bid that was $140,000 more than what we received. We understand this represents an additional cost, but we believe it's a worthwhile investment in the building's long-term value and positive community impact. _________________________Pres/V-Pres ATTEST: __________________Secretary Date: March 28, 2024 APPROVED Not Approved SOUTH BEND REDEVELOPMENT COMMISSION ITEM 5B1
