reasonably expects the Project to result in the creation of approximately 340 temporary
construction-related jobs during the construction of the Project having an average hourly rate of

best efforts to facilitate the creation of at least 400 new permanent full-time positions (for purposes
of this Agreement, “full-time” means an average of forty (40) hours per week whether on an hourly
or salaried basis) at the Project Site with average annual wages of approximately $100,000.
4.02 Project Site. The Developer has acquired, or shall cause to be acquired, and shall
improve the Project Site described in Exhibit B attached hereto, subject to the performance by the
City Bodies of their respective obligations under this Agreement, by constructing the Project on
such Project Site, as more particularly described in Section 4.04 hereof. The Developer shall not,
for so long as the Bonds are outstanding, apply for any property tax exemption for the Project or

4.03 Utility and Stormwater Infrastructure Planning. The City Bodies and Developer
shall jointly undertake solution planning for all permanent utility infrastructure exclusively required

Project. A “joint undertaking” means that the City Bodies and the Developer will collaborate in
good faith to identify needs, evaluate alternatives, develop mutually acceptable plans, and
coordinate design and permitting related to such utility infrastructure, it being understood that the
City Bodies will not incur any costs related to such utility infrastructure except for the stormwater
management improvements to be undertaken by the City. The Parties acknowledge that additional
utility infrastructure costs may arise in the course of planning and construction of the Project or a
7
future phase of the Project, and agree to engage in good faith discussions regarding funding
strategies for such costs, provided that any contribution by the City Bodies toward such additional
costs shall require mutual written agreement of the Parties.
4.04 Project Description and Project; Approval of Plans. The Project shall consist of the
items and/or parameters set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. The Developer shall commence
construction of the Project by no later than ninety (90) days following the successful procurement
of all permits and other governmental approvals and the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set
forth in Section 6.01 and shall complete construction and equipping of the Project by the
Completion Date, subject to permitted delays provided for in Section 4.05 hereof. In addition to the
City’s policies and procedures under the Laws regarding the approval of construction plans,
promptly upon completion of all plans and specifications for the Project, and after receipt of all
required approvals regarding such construction plans, the Developer shall deliver a complete set
thereof to the City’s Executive Director, Department of Community Investment, or his or her
designee, who may review said plans and specifications for the Project in his or her sole discretion
to confirm they are consistent with the initial plans submitted to the Redevelopment Commission
and may request revisions or amendments to be made to the same, provided, however, such
approval must be provided within fifteen (15) business days of receipt of the plans and
specifications for the Project, otherwise they shall be deemed approved. Following the City’s
Executive Director’s initial approval or deemed approval of the plans and specifications pursuant
to this Section 4.04, the Developer shall not be required to resubmit or obtain further approval for
immaterial field changes, substitutions, or refinements made in the ordinary course of design and
construction; provided, however, that in addition to the City’s policies and procedures under the
Laws regarding the approval of construction plans, and after receipt of all required approvals
regarding such revised construction plans, the Developer shall submit to the City’s Executive
Director for review and approval any material changes to the approved plans and specifications that
would materially alter the scope, size, exterior appearance, or intended use of the Project. The City’s
Executive Director shall review any proposed material changes within fifteen (15) business days
after receipt to confirm they are consistent with the initial plans submitted to the Redevelopment
Commission, and failure to respond within such period shall constitute deemed approval. Any
disapproval of the plans and specifications shall be accompanied by a reasonably detailed written
explanation of the basis for such disapproval.
4.05 Permitted Delays. Whenever performance is required of any party hereunder, such
party shall use all due diligence and take all necessary measures in good faith to perform; provided,
however, that if completion of performance shall be delayed at any time by reason of acts of God,
war, pandemic, civil commotion, riots, strikes, picketing, or other labor disputes, unavailability of
labor or materials, or damage to work in progress by reason of fire or other casualty or similar
causes beyond the reasonable control of a party (other than financial reasons), then the time for
performance as herein specified shall be appropriately extended by the time of the delay actually
caused by such circumstances. If (i) there should arise any permitted delay for which the Developer
or any of the City Bodies is entitled to delay its performance under this Agreement and (ii) the
Developer or such City Body anticipates that such permitted delay will cause a delay in its
performance under this Agreement, then the Developer or such City Body, as the case may be,
agrees to provide written notice to the other parties of this Agreement of the nature and the
anticipated length of such delay.

4.06 Inspection of the Project. The Developer shall, upon five business days advance
written notice delivered to the Developer, permit the City to perform an inspection of the Project,
which inspection may be conducted by a third party inspector engaged by the City for such purpose,
to determine compliance with the provisions of this Agreement and any applicable plans,
specifications, permits or other related Project documentation which may have been approved by
the City in connection therewith. Within five business days or less after such an inspection, the
City may deliver to Developer a non-compliance notice in the event the City reasonably determines
there is a material defect in the Project. Such non-compliance notice shall specify the material
defect identified by the City. If the City timely delivers a non-compliance notice, then Developer
shall correct, or cause to be corrected, as soon as is practicable, all material defects identified in the
non-compliance notice, except and to the extent that any such material defects previously have been
accepted, or deemed to have been accepted, by the City. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth herein, all items or components of the Project with respect to which no material defects
are identified in a timely non-compliance notice shall be deemed to be accepted by the City.
Additionally, and to the greatest extent possible, all identified material defects shall be corrected
immediately and all field changes shall be noted by the inspection and approved by the City. In the
case of any such inspections, the personnel conducting the inspection shall: (i) comply with all
health and safety rules of which such individuals have been informed that have been established for
personnel present on the Project Site and (ii) coordinate the timing of the inspection so that the
inspection does not interfere with the performance of construction. The Developer shall have the
right to accompany, and/or have its construction manager accompany, the personnel conducting the
inspection. Such inspection rights provided hereunder in no way otherwise limits the City from
undertaking inspections pursuant to applicable Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section
shall only apply to the City’s ability to ensure the Developer’s compliance with this Agreement.
Within ten (10) business days after receipt of a written request from the Developer, the City shall
certify to the Developer and to any lender of the Developer or purchaser of the Project the status of
inspections of the Project and whether any material defects in the Project identified in any
non-compliance notice have been remedied.
4.07 Insurance. During construction of the Project, the Developer shall maintain or
cause to be maintained the policies of insurance described on Exhibit F. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Parties have agreed that Developer may satisfy such insurance obligations through a

limits, and protections (including additional insured status or its functional equivalent) substantially
comparable to those required under Exhibit F and (ii) the Developer or affiliate of the Developer,
as the case may be, has sufficient financial resources to provide coverage for potential claims or
losses in the amounts listed on Exhibit F. Each such policy or self-insurance program shall: (a) be
written by a company reasonably acceptable to City or self-insured by a responsible entity
reasonably acceptable to the City; and (b) provide that it shall not be modified or canceled without
written notice to City at least thirty (30) days in advance. The policy of general liability insurance
shall name the City Bodies as additional insureds. The Developer shall deliver to City (i)
certificates of the insurance policies required by this Section 4.07, executed by the insurance
company or the general agency writing such policies, or (ii) in the event insurance coverage is
provide through a self-insurance program, the Developer or an affiliate of the Developer shall
provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to the City, if requested, that the Developer or its affiliate
9
has sufficient financial resources to provide coverage for potential claims or losses in the amounts
listed on Exhibit F.
4.08 Employment of Local Labor. The Developer hereby agrees to provide notice to
local contractors of all requests for bids, pre-bid meetings, and related meetings and information

or cause another qualified party to purchase the Bonds, and the Bonds shall not be issued until

Project. The Developer, as purchaser of the Bonds, shall agree that non-payment of the principal
or interest on the Bonds due to insufficiency of Pledged TIF Revenues or Pledged IDD Revenues
shall not be deemed to be a default under the Bonds. The proceeds of the Bonds shall be loaned or

of the prior payment) of the Project Costs set forth on Exhibit A. The Developer may obtain the
disbursement of proceeds of the Bonds by submitting a Disbursement Request (as such term is
defined in the Trust Indenture) to the City and the trustee in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Trust Indenture, which shall be subject to approval by or on behalf of the
Redevelopment Commission approval as set forth in the Trust Indenture. In the event the Bonds are
sold to a third-party purchaser, the Developer shall provide a Taxpayer Agreement to guarantee a
shortfall in the Pledged TIF Revenues relative to the Projected Pledged TIF Revenues to further
secure the Bonds. So long as the Bonds remain outstanding, the City Bodies agree that they will
not pledge the Pledged TIF Revenues or Pledged IDD Revenues to additional obligations of the
City Bodies.
5.02 Bond Limitations Acknowledgements. The Developer, or the purchaser of the
Bonds if not the Developer, shall (i) expressly agree that non-payment of the principal or interest
on the Bonds due to the insufficiency of Pledged TIF Revenues or Pledged IDD Revenues relating

under the Bonds or the Trust Indenture, (ii) acknowledge and agree that the Bonds, and the interest
thereon, if any, are payable solely from the Pledged TIF Revenues and the Pledged IDD Revenues
allocable to the Bonds, plus any payments under a related loan agreement or Taxpayer Agreement,
and, in the event of a shortfall of such Pledged TIF Revenues, Pledged IDD Revenues or payments
under a related loan agreement or Taxpayer Agreement, do not and shall not represent or constitute
a debt of the City or the Redevelopment Commission within the meaning of the provisions of the
Constitution or Statutes of the State of Indiana or a pledge of the faith and credit of the City or the

reserving all of the rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement and available to such Party.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (1) the Parties hereto shall work
diligently and in good faith to satisfy the conditions set forth in this Section 6.01 and (2) if any
party hereto fails to terminate this Agreement for any unsatisfied condition on or before the earlier
of (i) the Closing Date; or (ii) two (2) business days after the applicable deadline set forth in each
of the foregoing subsections (a) or (b) said Party shall be deemed to have waived such condition

7.01 Actions. Each of the City Bodies represents and warrants that it has taken or will
take (subject to further proceedings required by law and the Developer's performance of its
agreements and obligations hereunder) such action(s) as may be required and necessary to enable
each of the respective City Bodies to execute this Agreement and to carry out fully and perform the
terms, covenants, duties and obligations on its part to be kept and performed as provided by the
terms and provisions hereof. The Developer represents and warrants that it has the requisite
capability to undertake, complete, and operate the Project.
7.02 Powers. The City Bodies represent and warrant that each has full constitutional
and lawful right, power and authority, under currently applicable law, to execute, deliver and
perform their respective obligations under this Agreement. The Developer represents and warrants

respective obligations under this Agreement.

under this Agreement are subject to future actions by such bodies, and by the bodies of the City,
and compliance with statutory procedures required by Laws, including public notice and public
hearing requirements. The City Bodies agree to use their best efforts to complete such statutory
procedures, and to coordinate with the governing bodies of the City to complete such statutory
procedures, and to take the final actions required to implement such agreements. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein, failure to timely complete such future statutory procedures shall not
result in any liability hereunder by the City Bodies to the Developer or any party related to the
Developer.
ARTICLE VIII. GENERAL PROVISIONS
8.01 Indemnity; No Joint Venture or Partnership. The Developer covenants and agrees
at its expense to pay and to indemnify and save the City Bodies, and their officers, agents, and
employees (the “Indemnitees”) harmless of, from and against, any and all Claims resulting directly
or indirectly from the Developer's (and/or any affiliate's thereof) Project activities with respect to
work performed on the Project Site unless such claims, damages, demands, expenses or liabilities
arise by reason of the negligent act or omission of the City Bodies, or other Indemnitees. To the
extent permitted by law, the City Bodies shall indemnify and hold harmless the Developer from
and against any and all Claims, to the extent arising from or connected with the negligence or willful
misconduct of the City Bodies or any party acting by, under, through, or on behalf of any of the
City Bodies in connection with any inspection pursuant to Section 4.06. Nothing contained in this
Agreement, nor any act of the City Bodies or the Developer, or of any other person, shall be deemed
or construed by any person to create any relationship of third-party beneficiary, employer and
employee, principal, and agent, limited or general partners or joint ventures. The Developer is and
will remain an “independent contractor” with respect to performance under this Agreement.
8.02 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for this Agreement. The parties shall
make every reasonable effort to expedite the subject matters hereof (subject to any time limitations
described herein) and acknowledge that the successful performance of this Agreement requires their
continued cooperation.
8.03 Conflict of Interest; No Individual Liability. No member, official, or employee of
the City Bodies shall have any personal interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement, nor shall any
such member, official, or employee participate in any decision relating to this Agreement which
affects their personal interests or the interests of any corporation, partnership, or association in
which they, directly or indirectly, are interested. No member, official, or employee of the City
Bodies shall be personally liable to the Developer or any successor in interest, in the event of any
default or breach by the Commission or for any amount which may become due to the Developer
or any successor in interest or on any obligations under the terms of the Agreement. No partner,
employee or agent of Developer or successors of them shall be personally liable to the City Bodies
under this Agreement.
16
8.04 Costs. In the event the Closing is not completed by January 1, 2027, the Developer
shall pay City’s fees, including attorneys’ fees, Bond Counsel fees, municipal advisory fees and
any other fees reasonably and actually incurred with respect to this Agreement on or before January
1, 2027; provided, however, Developer shall have no obligation to pay such fees if the failure to
close is caused by the City’s default.
8.05 Default.
(a) Events of Default. It shall be an Event of Default if either party fails to
perform or observe any term or condition of this Agreement to be performed or observed
by it after notice from the other party, and such default is not cured within the applicable
Cure Period.
(b) General Remedies. Whenever an Event of Default occurs, the non-
defaulting party may take whatever actions at Law or in equity are necessary or appropriate
to: (i) collect any payments due under this Agreement; (ii) protect the rights granted to the
non-defaulting party under this Agreement; (iii) enforce the performance or observance by
the defaulting party of any term or condition of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, the right to specifically enforce any such term or condition); or (iv) cure, for the
account of the defaulting party, any failure of the defaulting party to perform or observe a
material term or condition of this Agreement to be performed or observed by it. If the non-
defaulting party incurs any costs or expenses in connection with exercising its rights and
remedies under, or enforcing, this Agreement, then the defaulting party shall reimburse the
non-defaulting party for all such costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees.
(c) No Remedy Exclusive. Except as provided to the contrary in this
Agreement, no right or remedy herein conferred upon, or reserved to, a non-defaulting
party is intended to be exclusive of any other available right or remedy, unless otherwise
expressly stated; instead, each and every such right or remedy shall be cumulative and in
addition to every other right or remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter
existing at Law or in equity. No delay or omission by a non-defaulting party to exercise
any right or remedy upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy, or
be construed to be a waiver thereof, and any such right or remedy may be exercised from
time to time, and as often as may be deemed to be expedient. To entitle a non-defaulting
party to exercise any of its rights or remedies, it shall not be necessary for the non-
defaulting party to give notice to the defaulting party, other than such notice as may be
required by this Agreement or by Law.
8.06 Termination. Notwithstanding any other provision, if the Closing has not occurred
before January 1, 2027, the City Bodies shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and shall
have no further responsibilities hereunder.
8.07 Amendment. This Agreement, and any exhibits attached hereto, may be amended
only by the mutual consent of the parties, by the adoption of an ordinance or resolution of each of
the City Bodies approving said amendment, as provided by law, and by the execution of said
amendment by the parties or their successors in interest.
17
8.08 No Other Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, this
Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, negotiations and discussions relative to the subject
matter hereof and is a full integration of the agreement of the parties.
8.09 Severability. If any provision, covenant, agreement or portion of this Agreement
or its application to any person, entity or property, is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect
the application or validity of any other provisions, covenants, agreements or portions of this
Agreement and, to that end, any provisions, covenants, agreements or portions of this Agreement
are declared to be severable.
8.10 Indiana Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of Indiana.
8.11 Venue. The Parties agree that if any litigation arises out of this Agreement that such
litigation shall be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in St. Joseph County, Indiana, unless
the Parties mutually agree to an alternative method of dispute resolution. The Parties hereby waive,
to the extent permitted under applicable Laws: (a) the right to a trial by jury in any action,
counterclaim, dispute or proceeding based upon, or related to, matters arising from this Agreement;
and (b) any right each of the Parties may have to: (i) assert the doctrine of “forum non conveniens”
or (ii) object to venue. This waiver applies to all claims against all Parties to such actions and
proceedings. This waiver is knowingly, intentionally, and voluntarily made by the parties hereto.

this Agreement may not be assigned by the Developer or any affiliate thereof without the express
prior written consent of each of the City Bodies; provided, however, that the Developer may transfer
all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder to an affiliate of the Developer upon notice
to but without the consent of the City Bodies, but any such transfer to an affiliate of the Developer
shall not have the effect of releasing the Developer and/or its assignees from the Developer’s
obligations hereunder. Upon completion of the Project, and prior to the date that is five (5) years
19
following the Completion Date, the Developer shall be entitled to assign this Agreement to any
purchaser of the Project with the express prior written consent of each of the City Bodies, which

assumption, the Developer shall be released from all obligations pursuant to this Agreement arising
after the date the purchaser assumes this Agreement. With respect to any assignment of this
Agreement prior to the date that is five (5) years following the Completion Date, Developer shall
demonstrate to the City Bodies that the new purchaser and associated affiliates of the Project have
comparable financial strength and reputation as the Developer, including its affiliates.
8.15 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be deemed to be for the benefit
solely of the Parties and shall not be deemed to be for the benefit of any third party.
8.16 Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement
shall not be effective until all parties hereto have executed this Agreement and the Redevelopment
Commission has approved or ratified this Agreement at a public meeting.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
• The Colfax Corner project is a catalytic mixed-use development that reimagines the former
South Bend Tribune site as a connected pair of buildings: a new five-story structure at Main
and Colfax and a restored historic building, joined by a public courtyard. Colfax Corner
delivers 202,000 rentable square feet of flexible workspace and ground-floor retail, built to
instigate collisions and ignite the region’s potential. The project includes the acquisition,
development, construction, equipping, renovation, and/or reconstruction of space in the former
