{H0525955.1 }

hereto as Exhibit "B" and made a part hereof. Upon the payment of the Assignment
Consideration to Assignor, Assignor shall simultaneously execute and deliver an
{HOSZS9ss.~ t2
instrument in recordable form to evidence Assignee's satisfaction of said mortgage. In
the event of any default in the prompt and full payment of the foregoing amount,
interest shall accrue thereon and be compounded annually at the then effective prime rate
as published from time to time in the "Money Rates" section of The Wall Street Journal (or
any successor publication thereto) plus two percent (2%) per annum from the due date
thereof until paid in full.
3. Assignee's obligations hereunder shall be conditioned on and subject to
Assignee's reasonable satisfaction with its due diligence review of the Property and obtaining
Dublin City Council approval of this Assignment all prior to the dates set forth hereinbelow.
Assignor shall cooperate with Assignee in conducting Assignee's due diligence review and shall
immediately provide Assignee with copies of all material due diligence materials received by
Assignor in the course of its investigation of the Property, which materials shall include but not
be limited to a current ALTA survey and a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment of the
Property. Assignee shall have until March 25, 2005 to complete its review of the Property and
until March 15, 2005 to obtain Dublin City Council approval of this Assignment and may, at its
election, notify Assignor, on or before either of such. dates, respectively, that Assignee is
dissatisfied with its review of the Property and/or has failed to obtain Dublin City Council
approval of this Assignment, as the case may be, and that it thereby cancels and terminates this
Assignment, in which case, Assignee's right, title and interest in and to the Agreement shall be
automatically assigned to Assignor without any furthe;r agreement between the parties and
Assignor shall thereafter have all rights of "Buyer" under the Agreement. If this Assignment is
terminated by Assignee in accordance with the terms of this Paragraph 3, then Assignee shall be
fully released from all further liability and obligations hereunder (including the payment to
Assignor of the Assignment Consideration) and under the Agreement. Assignee acknowledges
and agrees that it shall have no right to terminate the Agreement for any purpose whatsoever,
}H0525955.1 }3
either prior to or after March 25, 2005, without the express written consent of Assignor.
Furthermore, Assignee shall not assign the Agreement, or any interest therein, without the prior
written consent of Assignor except to any entity controlled by Assignee.
4. From and after the Closing Date through the date the Assignment
Consideration is paid to Assignor, Assignee shall, before entering into any agreement with a
third party for the sale of the Property, and before undertaking any marketing efforts whatsoever
to sell the Property, notify Assignor in writing of the prospective transaction or marketing plan
and setting forth the general terms and conditions upon which Assignee is willing to sell the
Property ("Assignee's Notice"). Assignor shall have ten (10) business days after its receipt of
Assignee's Notice to deliver to Assignee a written notice agreeing to purchase the Property from
Assignee at a purchase price equal to the sum of the Agreement Consideration and so much of
the Assignment Consideration as has then been paid to Assignor, together with a reasonable
interest factor to be agreed upon at such time by Assignee and Assignor, but in no event less
than four percent (4%) per annum nor greater than eight percent (8%) ("Assignor's
Acceptance"). Assignor and Assignee shall, within thirt~? (30) days after Assignee's receipt of
Assignor's Acceptance, enter into a written agreement for the purchase and sale of the Property,
the terms and conditions of which shall be consistent with those set forth in Assignor's
Acceptance (with respect to the purchase price) and Assilmee's Notice (with respect to all other
terms and conditions). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Assignor's obligation to acquire the
Property under the terms of the Assignor's Acceptance shall be subject to and conditioned upon
Assignor's ability to obtain an economic development agreement or other economic incentives
from any applicable governmental authority upon terms and conditions and within a timeframe
reasonably acceptable to Assignor and Assignee, but in no event more than one hundred twenty
(120) days after the date Assignor and Assignee enter into a written purchase agreement for the
Property. In the event Assignor fails to deliver Assignor's Acceptance to Landlord within said
;xoszs9ss i }4
ten (10) business day period and/or Assignee and Assignee, despite their good faith efforts, fail
to enter into a written agreement for the purchase and sale of the Property within thirty (30)
days after Assignee's receipt of Assignor's Acceptance, then such failure shall be conclusively
deemed a rejection of the Property and a waiver by Assignor of this right of first offer,
whereupon, Assignor shall have no further rights to purchase the Property hereunder and
Assignee shall be free to sell the Property to a third party or commence its marketing efforts
upon terms and conditions acceptable to Assignee. Assignee agrees to enter into and execute a
memorandum of the foregoing right of first offer and to the recordation of such memorandum
with the applicable county recorders to give public notice of Assignor's rights hereunder. Upon
the payment of the Assignment Consideration to Assignor or a waiver of Assignor's rights
under this Paragraph 4, Assignor shall, upon Assignee's request, execute and deliver an
instrument in recordable form to evidence Assignor's relinquishment of its rights under this
Paragraph 4. The provisions of this Paragraph 4 shall riot apply to any transfer of all or any
portion of the Property by Assignee to any public entity where no monetary consideration is
paid.
5. Assignor and Assignee agree and acknowledge that this Assignment is not, and
is in no manner intended to be, an economic development agreement of any nature whatsoever
between Assignor and Assignee.
6. Assignor hereby represents and warrants to Assignee that (a) the Agreement is
in full force and effect and has not been modified or amended, except as set forth herein, (b) to the best
of Assignor's knowledge, neither party to the Agreement ns in default thereunder nor are there any
conditions which, with notice or the lapse of time, would. constitute an event of default under the
Agreement, and (c) Assignor has the full right and authority to assign the Agreement and has obtained
the consent of Seller to this Assignment, if required.
{H0525955.1 }S
7. If, through no fault of Assignee, the closing does not occur (e.g., due to a
default by Seller under the Agreement), this Assignment shall also terminate, in which event (i)
Assignee shall not be liable to Assignor for the Assignment Consideration; (ii) Assignor shall
have all rights against Seller to the Deposit paid under the Agreement and for all other rights as
"Buyer" under the Agreement; and (iii) the parties hereto shall be released from all further
liabilities and obligations hereunder. In the event Assignor shall thereafter acquire the Property
in pursuit of the rights of "Buyer" under the Agreement, Assignee shall be obligated to purchase
the Property from Assignor for a purchase price equal to the Agreement Consideration plus the
Assignment Consideration, less any Deposit previously returned to Assignor, payable in the same
manner as contemplated herein and otherwise upon the relevant and applicable terms set forth
herein. Notwithstanding that in such event Assignee's rights under the Agreement have been re-
assigned to Assignor, Assignee agrees to reasonably cooperate with Assignor in Assignor's
pursuit of "Buyer's" rights under the Agreement against Seller, including joining as a party in any
litigation to the extent both parties mutually determine in good faith that such joinder is
necessary or desirable. Furthermore, in such event, if Assignor fails to pursue an action against
the Seller for specific performance, Assignee shall have the right and authority to pursue such
action. Any out of pocket costs incurred by Assignor or Assignee in any such litigation shall be
borne equally by the parties hereto. If the closing does :not occur through the fault of Assignee,
this Assignment shall not terminate and Assignee shall be and remain obligated to pay to
Assignor the Assignment Consideration as if the closing actually occurred on the date the closing
would have occurred but for Assignee's default. If Assignor receives any communication, written
or oral, regarding the Agreement from Seller or any other party, Assignor shall immediately
provide such information to Assignee. All notices required hereunder shall be sufficient if in
writing and mailed by certified mail, postage prepaid, or overnight courier, who issues a receipt
upon delivery of packages, addressed to the following:

Re: Ordinance No. 21-05 An Ordinance Authorizing the City Manager to Enter into an
Assignment of Real Estate Purchase Agreement with Duke Construction Limited
Partnership, for the Purpose of Acquiring a 74 Plus or Minus Acre Tract of Land at the
Southwest Corner of Eiterman Road and S.R.161/Post Road, Appropriating Funds
Therefor ,and Declaring an Emergency.
SUMMARY:
Ordinance No. 21-OS provides for the acquisition of a 74.5 acre;, more or less, tract of land located south of
S.R.161/Post Road and west of Eiterman Road from Franklin=Union Real Estate LLC. Duke Construction
Limited Partnership (Duke) has an option to purchase the property and the City will enter into an Assignment of
Real Estate Agreement with Duke whereby they will assign to the City all of its rights to acquire the property
under the terms of the agreement.
In discussions with City Council on land acquisition, this tract of land has been identified as an important parcel
in an effort to preserve the economic development capability of the area near the U.S. 33/S.R. 161 interchange.
In accordance with the Assignment of Real Estate Purchase Agreement, the City will acquire the right from Duke
to purchase the property from Franklin-Union Real Estate LLC for $3.1 million. In addition, the City will pay to
Duke the amount of $760,000 at closing and $650,000 the earlier of 36 months after closing or upon the sale of
the property to anon-governmental entity for the assignment or right to purchase the property.
The acquisition of the land will be financed initially by an advance from the General Fund to a Land Acquisition
Fund that has been established. Long-term debt will be issued within the next year to repay the advance to the
General Fund. The debt service obligations will be made from ~~the annual allocation ($500,000) in the Capital
Improvements Tax Fund for general land acquisition or a portion of the inside millage from property taxes.
Assuming the city will make both payments to Duke, the cost to acquire the property will be $4.5 million or
approximately $60,400 per acre.
In order to meet the terms of the Real Estate Purchase Agreement between Franklin-Union LLC and Duke, it is
necessary to request to dispense with the public hearing and have emergency passage.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is recommending that Ordinance No. 21-OS be passed as emergency legislation at the March 14, 2005 City
Council meeting.
