a. Finance and Audit Committee – No Report

PROSPECT ACTIVITY REPORT
Mr. Magill stated that ORCDC is working with five companies in the nuclear space who are all interested
in Heritage Center. Two companies are looking at the Carbon Rivers property that is in private ownership.
The other three companies are smaller operations, and they are working with them to find an appropriate
location. Mr. Magill also reported he is waiting to hear back on a project with ORNL. The company is
currently working within ORNL facilities until they are ready to move, and ORCDC will work with them to
find property. Mr. Magill also discussed the Nuclear Life Cycle Innovation Campus of which DOE has
named Tennessee a finalist. Mr. Magill also reported he has upcoming meeting with DOE regarding a
request for the transfer of reservation land for economic development and discussion for a data center to
support Y-12/ORNL efforts that would be located on the reservation. He stated that a data center would
have to generate its own power. He also provided the Board with marketing material.
UNFINISHED BUSINESS
None
NEW BUSINESS
a. Ms. Rackard reminded the Board they have an Easement with DOE on parcels adjacent to the R50 project in Heritage Center, so that R-50 could use them during construction and perform due
diligence. These are parcels the IDB has requested DOE transfer to the IDB and are included in
the Right of First Offer Agreement with R-50. R-50 has requested we work with DOE on an
amendment to the Easement to allow them to move utility poles on the sites, and the Easement
states that the IDB is responsible for all project costs. R-50 should be responsible for all project
costs.
Mr. Stallings made a motion authorizing the Chairman to sign an agreement to assign project costs
outlined in the easements between DOE and the IDB for Project R-50 from the IDB to R-50, LLC.
Mr. Trapp seconded the motion. Mr. Wilson opened the floor for public comment and then
recognized citizen Doug Colclasure, 103 Monticello Road, who signed up to speak publicly on the
agenda item. Mr. Colclasure stated he believes that heavy equipment was moved onto this site last
week and questioned if the Board was aware of that. There being no further comments, the Board
voted on the agenda item, and the motion carried unanimously.
b. Mr. Chinn made a motion confirming the acceptance of Tract ED-20C, totaling 3.54 acres, at the
East Tennessee Technology Park’s (ETTP) Heritage Center by Quitclaim Deed from the U.S.
Department of Energy to The Industrial Development Board of the City of Oak Ridge for Economic
Development Purposes. Mr. Trapp seconded the motion. Mr. Wilson opened the floor for public
comment and then recognized citizen Doug Colclasure, 103 Monticello Road, who signed up to
speak publicly on the agenda item. Mr. Colclasure stated he found it odd that DOE suddenly had
3.54 acres to transfer. He questioned what was driving the transfer and if it was already committed
for a project. He asked the Board to consider setting the sale price at market rate, so the proceeds
can help the City. There being no further comments, the Board voted on the agenda item, and the
motion carried unanimously. (See EXHIBIT B)
c. Mr. Magill and Mr. Salsbury provided an update to the contract between the ORCDC and DIA for
the Master Plan Project at Heritage Center. The IDB funded a portion of the project. Mr. Magill
stated that it has been difficult due to the properties and sites/projects constantly evolving/changing
at the moment. They stated that there should be a plan to present to the Board in a few weeks.
They will let the Board know when they have something tangible to show the Board, so it can be
included on an upcoming agenda.

d. Mr. Ba, City Electrical Director, provided the Board an update on the City Electrical Projects. He
stated that there has been significant activity on the west end with companies having different
power needs and different timelines. The City works with each company on their requests by
providing site assessments and developing high level site designs. He also stated that the City
meets with TVA each month to keep them informed of the current activity, and TVA has supported
all the requests so far. The City has been proactive by going to City Council for bid approval on
equipment purchases, so purchase orders can be issued as soon as companies enter into a
construction agreement with the City.
e. Joel Duling, President of TRISO-X, provided an update on the TRISO-X project in Horizon Center.
APPEARANCE OF CITIZENS (Non-Agenda Items)
Doug Colclasure, 103 Monticello Road, stated that years ago, contractors respected stormwater runoff
requirements of the City with sediment control features. He requested the Board review the site videos he
sent that were taken in May/June of this year. He asked the Board to help by making sure sales agreements
include language requiring contractors stabilize soil surfaces to protect our freshwater areas.

Leased Property, the repair and alteration thereof, and the use or manner of use of the Leased Property,
whether or not such laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations and requirements are foreseen or
unforeseen, ordinary or extraordinary, and whether or not they shall involve any change of governmental
policy or shall require structural or extraordinary repairs, alterations or additions, irrespective of the cost
thereof; provided, however, that Lessee, in lieu of compliance with such laws, orders, rules, regulations
and requirements, or the making of such additions, changes or alterations, may, at its option, exercise its
right to purchase the Leased Property, as provided below and, in such event shall have no further liability
hereunder, except as otherwise provided herein.
Section 5.02
Permitted Contests. Lessee shall not be required to comply or cause compliance
with the laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations or requirements referenced in Section 5.01, so long
as Lessee shall, at Lessee’s expense, contest the same or the validity thereof in good faith, by appropriate
proceedings. Such contest may be made by Lessee in the name of Lessor or of Lessee, or both, as Lessee
shall determine and Lessor agrees that it will, at Lessee’s expense, cooperate with Lessee in any such
contest to such extent as Lessee may reasonably request. It is understood, however, that Lessor shall not
be subject to any liability for the payment of any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in
connection with any such proceeding brought by Lessee, and Lessee covenants to pay, and to indemnify
and save harmless Lessor from, any such costs or expenses.

set forth herein, during the Term of this Lease, it will not convey, pledge, encumber or suffer or permit

Lessee therein, under and by virtue of any present or future law, statute, regulation or other requirement
of any governmental authority.
Section 7.02
Lessee Subrogated to Lessor’s Rights. To the extent of any payments of

and Lessee agrees that it shall pay all costs and expenses related to the foregoing.
Section 7.04

Payments in Lieu of Taxes.

5

Page 25 of 53

(a)
Recognition of Tax Status. Lessee recognizes that under present law, including
specifically the Act, the properties owned by Lessor are exempt from all taxation in the State of
Tennessee.
(b)
Administrative Provisions. In furtherance of the agreements in this Section, it is
agreed by and between the parties hereto that Lessee, in cooperation with Lessor, shall cause all of the
Leased Property, including but not limited to, the Leased Land, the Buildings and each expansion of any
Building to be valued and assessed separately by the assessor or other official or officials charged with
the responsibility of assessing privately owned property in the area where the Leased Property is located
at the time such privately owned property is valued or assessed. Lessee, in cooperation with Lessor, shall
cause to be applied to the appropriate taxable value of each such portion of the Leased Property the tax
rate or rates that would be applicable for state and local tax purposes if the property were then privately
owned, and shall cause the county trustee or other official or officials charged with the responsibility of
collecting taxes to submit annually to Lessor and Lessee a statement of the taxes which would otherwise
then be chargeable to each such portion of the Leased Property. The right is reserved to Lessee to the
same extent as if Lessee were the owner of the Leased Property to contest the validity or amount of any
such assessment.
(c)
Payments in Lieu of Taxes. In addition to Basic Rent and Additional Rent
hereunder, Lessee and Lessor agree that Lessee shall pay directly to the City and the County the
payments in lieu of taxes as shown below:

Construction
Period
(Effective Date through
Completion Date)
Years 1-2
Years 3-4
Years 5-6
Years 7-8
Years 9-10
Years 11 and beyond

Annual PILOT Payments
(Percentage of the ad valorem taxes that
would otherwise be payable with respect to
the Leased Property if the Leased Property
were owned by Lessee)
0%

0%
20%
40%
60%
80%
100%

Amounts payable with respect to any partial Tax Years included within the Term will be prorated
based upon the actual number of days included within such Tax Year. Any payment due with respect to a
Tax Year that is not paid prior to the termination or expiration of this Lease shall not be extinguished as a
result of such termination or expiration and shall survive such termination or expiration.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, this Lease shall not be
extended except pursuant to an amendment in writing and executed by both the Lessor and Lessee. Such
reduction in taxes otherwise payable shall not apply with regard to any other tax assessed against Lessee,
its income, its other real property or its personalty. In the event Lessee assumes ownership of the Leased
Property, Lessee shall begin paying all applicable ad valorem and other taxes directly to the City and the
County, as assessed, but shall not make, from the date of such acquisition, any in lieu payments with
respect to such property other than those payments that were unpaid at the time of such acquisition.

6

Page 26 of 53

(d)
Credit for Taxes Paid. Nothing contained in this Section 7.04 is intended or
shall be construed to require the payment by Lessee of any greater amounts in lieu of taxes than would be
payable as taxes if the Leased Property were owned by Lessee. It is accordingly understood and agreed
that the amount payable by Lessee in any year under the provisions of this Section 7.04 shall be reduced
by the amount of any ad valorem taxes lawfully levied upon the Leased Property or any part thereof, or
upon Lessee’s leasehold estate therein, and actually paid by Lessee pursuant to the requirements of
Section 7.01 hereof to the City and the County and to the extent that any such tax payments paid by
Lessee pursuant to the requirements of Section 7.01 hereof for any year shall exceed the in-lieu-of-tax
payments for such year otherwise provided in this Section 7.04 the amount payable by Lessee in any
subsequent year under the provisions of this Section 7.04 shall be reduced by such excess amount.
(e)
Timing of Payments. Each payment in lieu of taxes required to be paid to the
City by this Section 7.04 with respect to any Tax Year or partial Tax Year shall be paid not later than the
last day on which ad valorem taxes are payable without penalty to the City with respect to such Tax Year
or partial Tax Year. Each payment in lieu of taxes required to be paid to the County by this Section 7.04
with respect to any Tax Year or partial Tax Year shall be paid not later than the last day on which ad
valorem taxes are payable without penalty to the County with respect to such Tax Year or partial Tax
Year.
(f)
Reports. On behalf of Lessor, Lessee shall, during the term of this Lease, submit
on or before October 1 of each year to the Tennessee State Board of Equalization the annual report
required to be submitted by it pursuant to Section 7-53-305 of the Act.
(g)
Payment Upon Termination or Expiration. Upon the termination of this Lease
for any reason during a Tax Year, Lessee shall pay a pro-rated amount of the payments in lieu of taxes, if
any, required by this Section 7.04 for the period that this Lease is in effect and for which no payments in
lieu of taxes have been made up to the date of such termination.
(h)
Cessation of Business or Foreclosure. Except in the event Lessee shall terminate
this Lease pursuant to Article IX of this Lease, in the event Lessee ceases the active operation (excluding
temporary cessations due to Force Majeure events) of multifamily housing facilities that are available for
rent at the Leased Property, and notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Lessee shall make
payments in lieu of taxes beginning as of the date Lessee ceases such operation equal to the ad valorem
taxes that Lessee otherwise would have been required to make with respect to the Leased Property if the
Leased Property was owned by Lessee. Upon the foreclosure of Lessee’s leasehold interest in this Lease,
or assignment of Lessee’s leasehold interest in this Lease without the prior written consent of Lessor, any
successor to Lessee’s interest hereunder shall, notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary,
make payments in lieu of taxes beginning as of the date such successor acquires Lessee’s leasehold
interest hereunder equal to the ad valorem taxes that such successor otherwise would have been required
to make with respect to the Leased Property if the Leased Property was owned by such successor.
Section 7.05
Permitted Contests. Lessee shall not be required to pay any tax or assessment
against the Leased Property or any part thereof, so long as Lessee shall, at Lessee’s expense, contest the
same or the validity thereof in good faith, by appropriate proceedings which shall operate to prevent the
collection of the tax or assessment so contested or resulting from such contest and the sale of the Leased
Property or any part thereof to satisfy the same. Such contest may be made by Lessee in the name of
Lessor or of Lessee, or both, as Lessee shall determine, and Lessor agrees that it will, at Lessee’s
expense, cooperate with Lessee in any such contest to such extent as Lessee may reasonably request. It is
understood, however, that Lessor shall not be subject to any liability for the payment of any costs or
expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with any such proceeding brought by Lessee, and
Lessee covenants to pay, and to indemnify and save harmless Lessor from, any such costs or expenses.
7

Page 27 of 53

ARTICLE VIII.
Maintenance and Repair
Lessor shall not be required to rebuild or to make any repairs, replacements or renewals of any
nature or description to the Leased Property or to make any expenditures whatsoever in connection with
this Lease or to maintain the Leased Property in any way. Lessee expressly waives the right contained in
any law now or hereafter in effect to make any repairs at the expense of Lessor.
Lessee shall keep and maintain in good order, condition and repair (including any such repair as
is required due to fire, storm or other casualty) the Leased Property and every part thereof and any and all
appurtenances thereto. Lessee shall save Lessor harmless on account of claims for mechanics and
materialmen’s liens in connection with any work by Lessee, and any such liens shall exist only against
Lessee’s leasehold interest and shall be discharged, by bond or otherwise, within sixty (60) days after
filing. Lessee shall keep and maintain the Leased Property in accordance with all directions, rules and
regulations of the proper officials of the government agencies having jurisdiction, at the sole cost and
expense of Lessee, provided that Lessee shall not be required to repair, rebuild or restore the Leased
Property following material damage from a fire or other casualty except that Lessor may require Lessee
to remove any debris from the Leased Property following a fire or other casualty. Lessee shall be entitled
to receive all proceeds of casualty insurance relating to any damage or destruction of any portion of the
Leased Property.
ARTICLE IX.
Condemnation
If during the Term, all or any part of the Leased Property be taken by the exercise of the power of
eminent domain or condemnation, Lessee shall be entitled to and shall receive the entire award for the
taking. If title to or control of all of the Leased Property shall be taken by the exercise of the power of
eminent domain or condemnation, or if such use or control of a substantial part of the Leased Property
shall be taken as to result in rendering a substantial part of the Leased Property untenantable or of
materially reduced value to Lessee, Lessee may terminate this Lease and exercise the purchase option
purchase to Article XIV by giving written notice to the Lessor and thereafter shall have no further
liability hereunder except as specifically provided herein, provided, as a condition of such termination,
Lessor may require Lessee to remove all or a portion of the improvements from the remaining portion of
the Leased Property.
ARTICLE X.
Insurance and Indemnification
Section 10.01 Insurance. Lessee shall carry commercial general liability insurance covering the
Leased Property and the use and occupancy of the same in a company or companies licensed to do
business in Tennessee under a policy satisfactory to Lessor both as to amount and coverage and shall
provide evidence of same to Lessor. Lessor shall be listed as an additional insured on such policy.
Lessee shall also insure all improvements on the Leased Property at their full replacement value, with
Lessor being included as an additional insured, and Lessee shall provide evidence of same to Lessor.
Each policy described above shall not be canceled without first giving Lessor not less than thirty (30)
days prior written notice. Lessee shall provide to Lessor evidence of all insurance policies contemplated
by this Section, including, upon request, annual certificates of continued coverage.
Section 10.02 Indemnification. Lessee covenants and agrees, at its expense, to pay, and to
indemnify and save Lessor and its directors, agents and employees (collectively, the “Indemnified
Parties”) harmless against and from any and all claims by or on behalf of any person, firm, corporation,
or governmental authority, arising from the occupation, use, possession, conduct or management of or

Page 28 of 53

from any work or activity done in or about the Leased Property or from the subletting of any part thereof,
including any liability for violation of conditions, agreements, restrictions, laws, ordinances, or
regulations affecting the Leased Property or the occupancy or use thereof. Lessee also covenants and
agrees, at its expense, to pay, and to indemnify and save the Indemnified Parties harmless against and
from, any and all claims, costs or expenses arising from (i) any condition, including any environmental
condition, now existing or hereafter arising, on the Leased Property, (ii) any breach or default on the part
of Lessee in the performance of any covenant or agreement to be performed by Lessee pursuant to this
Lease, (iii) any act or negligence of Lessee, or any of its agents, contractors, servants, employees or
licensees, (iv) the failure of the Acquisition Deed to convey title to the Leased Land to Lessor on the date
hereof other than as described in the Acquisition Deed, (v) any disputes, demands or claims related to the
title of the Leased Land or any liens or other encumbrances affecting the Leased Land (other than claims

whatever caused to any person, firm or corporation in or about the Leased Property and from and against
all costs, reasonable counsel fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in any action or proceeding brought

acts of gross negligence or willful misconduct or intentional misconduct of any of the Indemnified
Parties or for any claim or liability which the Indemnified Parties was not given the opportunity to
contest. The indemnification provided shall survive termination of this Lease.

be non-recourse as to Lessor, and Lessor shall have absolutely no personal or individual liability with
respect to any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease. Lessee hereby expressly agrees that
it shall look solely to the equity of Lessor or its successor(s) interest in the Leased Premises for the
satisfaction of any remedy of Lessee in the event of any breach by Lessor of any of the terms covenants
and conditions of this Lease. This exculpation of Lessor’s personal liability is absolute and without any

waiver or release of Lessor’s rights and protections under said Act.

compliance with all applicable laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations and requirements of all
federal, state and municipal governments and the appropriate departments, commissions, boards and
offices thereof. Lessee shall maintain or cause to be maintained, at all times when any work is in process
in connection with such additions, alterations, improvements or construction, workmen’s compensation
insurance covering all persons employed in connection with such work and with respect to whom death
or bodily injury claims could be asserted against Lessor, Lessee or the Leased Property.
Lessee covenants and agrees at its expense to cause the construction on the Leased Land of the

therewith, Lessee agrees to incur capital expenditures for the acquisition of the Leased Land and the

Buildings. Lessor shall be authorized to draw upon the Payment Bond in the event that (a) a contractor, a
subcontractor, or a provider of materials makes a request or demand on Lessor for payment for services
incurred and/or goods procured by Lessee relative to the construction of the Buildings and (b) Lessee is
not contesting the same in good faith by appropriate proceedings. Upon request, Lessee shall provide
such documentation from time to time as Lessor may reasonably request, evidencing that Lessee is
contesting any such claim, if applicable. Funds from the draws made by Lessor on the Payment Bond
shall be used solely for the payment of claims of contractors, subcontractors, and providers of materials
that are not being so contested. The Payment Bond shall initially have a term of at least one year, and the
expiration date thereof shall be renewed or extended by Lessee until the Completion Date has occurred
and all costs and expenses relating to the construction of the Buildings have been paid, as certified by
Lessee. If the expiration date of the Payment Bond is scheduled to occur prior to such time and is not
extended at least twenty (20) days prior to the current expiration date, Lessor shall be entitled to draw on
the Payment Bond in the full stated amount thereof and hold the funds received from such draw in order
to secure the payment of contractors, subcontractors and providers of materials as provided above. After

the Buildings, Lessor shall return any funds that have not been applied for such purposes to Lessee.and

Housing and Urban Development for projects similar in nature to the Project.
ARTICLE XII.
Subletting, Assignments and Mortgaging
Section 12.01 Except for (i) leases in the ordinary course of business or otherwise desirable for
operation of multifamily housing facilities that are available for rent or (ii) a leasehold deed of trust
pursuant to which Lessee mortgages its leasehold estate in the Leased Property, Lessee shall not have the
right to sublet the Leased Property or assign or otherwise transfer its rights and interest hereunder except
with the prior written consent of Lessor or as explicitly permitted in this Lease. In the event that the
Lender becomes the successor lessee hereunder pursuant to this section, the Lender shall be eligible to
make the payments in lieu of taxes pursuant to Section 7.04 hereof; and further provided that any
successor or assign of the Lender, or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale other than the Lender, shall be
entitled to make payments in lieu of taxes pursuant to Section 7.04 hereof so long as Lessor has
reasonably approved such person or entity, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed, and shall be provided or withheld within thirty (30) days of the date of request or shall be
deemed approved. If such successor or assign of the Lender or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale other
than the Lender is not approved by Lessor (the “Non-Approved Party”) in accordance with the foregoing
sentence, then the Non-Approved Party shall make payments in lieu of taxes beginning as of the date of
such assignment or purchase equal to the ad valorem taxes that Lessee otherwise would have been
10

Page 30 of 53

required to make with respect to the Leased Property if the Leased Property was owned by Lessee. If
Lessee conveys, assigns, transfers, leases, subleases or sells all or any part of its rights or interest
hereunder to a transferee with the approval of HUD in accordance with Section 8 of the Lease Addendum
attached hereto as Exhibit C but without the approval of Lessor, such transferee shall make payments in
lieu of taxes beginning as of the date thereof equal to the ad valorem taxes that Lessee otherwise would
have been required to make with respect to the Leased Property if the Leased Property was owned by
Lessee, except as otherwise provided in this Section 12.01.
Section 12.02 If a mortgagee of Lessee shall have given Lessor, before any Event of Default
shall have occurred hereunder, a written notice specifying the name and mailing address of the
mortgagee, then Lessor shall not terminate this Lease by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default
hereunder unless Lessor shall have given the mortgagee a copy of its notice to Lessee of such Event of
Default addressed to the mailing address last furnished by the mortgagee, and such Event of Default shall
not have been cured by said mortgagee within the time permitted herein (which such time period, with
respect to mortgagee, shall begin upon receipt of the respective notice by mortgagee), provided that
mortgagee shall have the right to extend the period of time for the curing of any such Event of Default for
an additional period of thirty (30) days from the date contained in the notice given pursuant to Section
15.03 herein, or in the case of an Event of Default which cannot be cured within said thirty (30) day
period, for such additional period (not to exceed an additional sixty (60) days) as, with all due diligence
and in good faith, is necessary to cure the Event of Default. Lessor acknowledges that it has received
written notice that Lender is a mortgagee hereunder, and that Lessor shall send notices required to be sent
to a mortgagee hereunder to Lender at the address provided in Section 15.03.
Section 12.03 Lessee irrevocably directs that Lessor accept, and Lessor agrees to accept,
performance by any such mortgagee of the Lessee’s right to terminate this Lease granted to Lessee by
Article XIV hereof, regardless whether an Event of Default has occurred. After the date hereof, and in
addition to any rights the mortgagee may have by virtue of this Lease, including the right to terminate the
Lease, if, within ninety (90) days after the mailing of a notice of termination, or such later date as may be
provided in this Lease following the expiration of the cure period, if any, afforded to the Lessee (the
“Mortgagee Cure Period”), such mortgagee shall pay, or arrange to the satisfaction of Lessor for the
payment of, a sum of money equal to any and all Basic Rent, and other payments due and payable by
Lessee hereunder (but not the costs or payments for the obligations under Article XI) with respect to the
portion of the Leased Property to which such mortgagee claims an interest as of the date of the giving of
notice of termination, in addition to their pro rata share of any and all expenses, costs and fees, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Lessor in preparation for terminating this Lease, and in acquiring
possession of the Leased Property, then, upon the written request of such mortgagee made any time prior
to the expiration of the Mortgagee Cure Period, Lessor and the party making such request (or its
nominee) (the “New Lessee”) shall mutually execute prior to the end of such Mortgagee Cure Period a
new Lease of the Leased Property (or such portion thereof as they have an interest in or mortgage on) for
the remainder of the Term of this Lease and on the same terms and conditions, and with the same priority
over any encumbrances created at any time by Lessor, its successors and assigns which Lessee has or had
by virtue of this Lease; provided, however, that in addition to the above payments such New Lessee shall
have paid to Lessor a sum of money equal to the Basic Rent and other payments for such portion of the
Leased Property accruing from the date of such termination to the date of the commencement of the term
of such new Lease, together with its pro rata share of all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees,
incident to the preparation, printing, execution, delivery and recording of such new lease and provided,
further, that such New Lessee is approved by Lessor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed, and shall be provided or withheld within thirty (30) days of the date of request or
shall be deemed approved. Such priority shall exist by virtue of the notice created by this Lease to any
transferee of Lessor or person receiving an encumbrance from Lessor, and the priority shall be
self-operative and shall not require any future act by Lessor. Such new Leases shall contain the same
11

Page 31 of 53

clauses subject to which this demise is made, and shall be at the rents and other payments for such
portion of the Leased Property due Lessor and upon the terms as are herein contained. New Lessees
under any such new Leases shall have the same right, title and interest in and to and all obligations
accruing thereafter under this Lease with respect to the applicable portion of the Leased Property as
Lessee has under this Lease. Nothing in this Section 12.03 shall require the mortgagee, as a condition to
the exercise of its rights under this Section 12.03, to cure any default of Lessee not reasonably
susceptible of being cured by any mortgagee.
Section 12.04 Simultaneously with the making of such new leases, the party obtaining such
new lease and all other parties junior in priority of interest in the Leased Property shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver such new instruments, including new mortgages and new subleases, as the case
may be, and shall make such payments and adjustments among themselves, as shall be necessary and
proper for the purpose of restoring to each of such parties as nearly as reasonably possible, the respective
interest and status with respect to the Leased Property which was possessed by the respective parties
prior to the termination of this Lease as aforesaid.
Section 12.05 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to impose any obligation on the part
of Lessor to deliver physical possession of the Leased Property to such mortgagee or their respective
nominee until the new leases have been executed by all pertinent parties. Lessor agrees, however, that
Lessor will, at the cost and expense of such mortgagee or respective nominee, cooperate in the
prosecution of judicial proceedings to evict the then defaulting Lessee or any other occupants of the
Leased Property.
Section 12.06 Notwithstanding the term of any mortgage, Lessee’s mortgagee shall have no
further rights in the Lease except as stated herein. As used in this Section and throughout this Lease, the
noun “mortgage” shall include a leasehold deed of trust, the verb “mortgage” shall include the creation of
a leasehold deed of trust, the word “mortgagee” shall include the beneficiary under a leasehold deed of
trust, and the terms “foreclose” or “foreclosure” shall include a trustee’s sale under a deed of trust as well
as a foreclosure by judicial process.
ARTICLE XIII.
Events of Default; Termination
If any one or more of the following events (herein called “Events of Default”) shall happen:
(a)
if Lessee fails to maintain the commercial general liability insurance required by
Section 10.01 after being given notice of such failure and not curing such failure within ten (10) days of
receipt of such notice; or
(b)
if default shall be made in the due and punctual payment of any payment due
pursuant to Section 7.04 hereof, and such default shall continue for more than thirty (30) days after
Lessee’s receipt of written notice of such default to Lessee from Lessor; or
(c)
if default shall be made by Lessee in the due performance of or compliance with
any of the terms hereof, other than that referred to in the foregoing subdivisions (a) and (b), and such
default shall continue for sixty (60) days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice of such
default (or in the case of any such default which cannot with due diligence be cured within such 60-day
period, if Lessee shall fail to proceed promptly to cure the same and thereafter prosecute the curing of
such default with due diligence, it being intended in connection with any such default not susceptible of
being cured with due diligence within the sixty (60) days that the time of Lessee within which to cure the

12

Page 32 of 53

same shall be extended for such period as may be necessary to complete the curing of the same with all
due diligence);
then in any such event Lessor at any time thereafter and while such Event of Default shall continue may
give a written termination notice to Lessee, which notice shall specify the nature of the Event of Default
and a date of termination of this Lease not less than ninety (90) days after the giving of such notice.
Upon such termination, Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enter upon the Leased
Property and repossess the Leased Property. This termination right is subject to Lessee’s right to
purchase the Leased Property pursuant to Section 14.01 and at any time during or within 30 days after the
term of this Lease, Lessee may exercise its right in Section 14.01 to purchase the Leased Property
without regard to whether an Event of Default has occurred.
ARTICLE XIV.
Purchases and Purchase Prices
Section 14.01 Option to Purchase. Lessee (and upon an event of default under any mortgage,
such mortgagee) shall have an irrevocable and exclusive option to purchase the Leased Property as a
whole or any part thereof at any time during the Term or within thirty (30) days after the termination or
expiration of the Lease for the amount provided in Section 14.03. To exercise such option, Lessee or
mortgagee shall (i) give Lessor at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of its intent to exercise any

public purposes, and (iii) to execute petitions to have the Leased Land or portions thereof annexed to any
municipality or included within any utility, highway or other improvement or service district. Lessor
shall also promptly execute and deliver estoppels, joinders, non-disturbance agreements and other
documents required in connection with Lessee’s use, financing, and refinancing of the Leased Property.

amounts due upon termination or expiration of this Lease), but excluding any amounts required to be
expended pursuant to Article XI.
(b)

14.01, this Lease shall terminate and Lessor shall convey Lessor’s interest in the Leased Property to

exercised. Lessee shall deliver to Lessor at least ten (10) days before the proposed date of purchase a
notice that Lessee desires to exercise its option to purchase under the provisions of this Section 14.04 and
identifying the portion of the Leased Property as to which it is then exercising its option. On the
13

Page 33 of 53

proposed date of purchase, and upon payment in cash of the amount specified in this Section 14.04,
Lessor shall convey to the Lessee by quitclaim deed, without warranty of any type, the portion of the
Leased Property to be purchased. Lessee shall pay all expenses relating to such conveyance.

dated as of May 1, 2020 (the “Lease”)lease agreement entered into on the ___ day of
__________,
, between THE INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT BOARD OF THE
CITY OF OAK RIDGE ("Landlord") and MAINSTREET CAPITAL PARTNERS, LLC,
("Tenant") (collectively, the “Parties”) (the “Lease”).

LLC or such other HUD-approved lender (the name and address of which shall be
provided to Landlord in writing) (“Lender”). The insured loan is secured by a Security
Instrument on the leasehold estate set forth in the Lease.

Page 43 of 53

The definition of any capitalized term or word used in this Lease Addendum and
not otherwise defined can be found in the Security Instrument and/or Note between
Lender and Tenant; or the Regulatory Agreement between Tenant and HUD. The
terms “HUD” and “Lender” as used in the Lease Addendum shall also include their
successors and assigns, and the Tenant is the same legal entity as the Borrower under
the Security Instrument. All references to “days” in this Lease Addendum shall mean
calendar days.
Notwithstanding anything else in the Lease to which this Lease Addendum is
attached, and for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which the
Parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree, and to induce the Lender to make the
Loan to the Tenant described in the Security Instrument, and to induce HUD to insure
said Loan, so long as this leasehold estate is subject to a security instrument insured,
reinsured, or held by HUD or given to HUD in connection with a resale, or the Property
is acquired and held by HUD because of a default under the Security Instrument,
Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree to the following provisions.
Lease
The leasehold estate consists of the legally described land and includes all
buildings, improvements, alterations, and fixtures now or in the future located on the
legally described land. The Tenant does not own title to any of the buildings,
improvements, alterations or fixtures but Tenant is the owner of the buildings,
improvements, alterations and fixtures for federal income and state franchise and
excise tax purposes. As such, the term “Property” means the legally described land in
the Lease including the buildings, improvements, alterations and fixtures now or in the
future located on the land.
1. 1. Compliance with HUD Requirements. Pursuant to the Act, the following
provisions may not be waived under any circumstances, whether for a new lease or
an existing lease:
(a) the term of the Lease and other Lease provisions comply with the section of
the Act and related federal regulations under which the Note is endorsed for
mortgage insurance;
(b) the Landlord owns the Property in fee simple, and the leasehold estate is
granted directly by the Landlord to the Tenant;
(c) the leasehold estate underlying the Lease constitutes a mortgageable real
property interest under state law;

Page 44 of 53

(d) the Lease and related Lease documents do not conflict with any Program
Obligations1[1] promulgated by HUD with respect to such mortgage
insurance; and
(e) all ground rent amounts have prior written approval by HUD.
2. 2. Modifications. The Lease and this Lease Addendum shall not be modified
without the written consent of HUD and Lender. Modifications of the Lease and this
Lease Addendum that are not authorized in writing by HUD and Lender are void and
unenforceable.
3. 3. Conflict Provision. The provisions of this Lease Addendum benefit Lender and
HUD and are specifically declared to be enforceable against the parties to the Lease
and all other persons by Lender and HUD. In the event of any conflict,
inconsistency or ambiguity between the provisions of this Lease Addendum and the
provisions of any other part of the Lease, the provisions of this Lease Addendum
shall prevail and control.
4. 4. Recording. The full Lease agreement and incorporated HUD Lease Addendum,
or a memorandum of lease (if permitted under state law), must be recorded in the
applicable land records office. If a memorandum of lease or a short form lease is to
be recorded, it must set forth the following information, in addition to compliance
with state law requirements:
(a) names of the Parties;
(b) legal description;
(c) term and renewals;
(d) reference to the HUD Lease Addendum; and
(e) specific reference to HUD’s option to purchase in Section 7 (unless Section 7
is expressly waived in writing by HUD in accordance with Program
Obligations).
5. 5. Estoppel Certificate. As a condition of HUD’s acceptance of a lease
transaction, an estoppel certificate identifying the Lease documents and signed by
the Landlord, dated within thirty (30) days of the Note endorsement, must be

[1]

“Program Obligations” means (1) all applicable statutes and any regulations issued by the Secretary
pursuant thereto that apply to the Project, including all amendments to such statutes and regulations, as they
become effective, except that changes subject to notice and comment rulemaking shall become effective only upon
completion of the rulemaking process, and (2) all current requirements in HUD handbooks and guides, notices, and
mortgagee letters that apply to the Project, and all future updates, changes and amendments thereto, as they
become effective, except that changes subject to notice and comment rulemaking shall become effective only upon
completion of the rulemaking process, and provided that such future updates, changes and amendments shall be
applicable to the Project only to the extent that they interpret, clarify and implement terms in this Lease Addendum
rather than add or delete provisions from such document. Handbooks, guides, notices, and mortgagee letters are
available on “HUDCLIPS,” at www.hud.gov.

Page 45 of 53

provided to Lender and HUD at closing. The Landlord must confirm in writing to
Lender and HUD that the Security Instrument is authorized, the Lease is in full force
and effect, there are no defaults or pending defaults under the Lease or conditions
that would give rise to defaults given the passage of time, and that the description of
the Property is correct. The document must provide the language required by 24
CFR Section 200.62, and also include the “Warning” language found at the
beginning of this Lease Addendum.
Upon a reasonable request from Tenant, Lender, or HUD, Landlord further agrees
to promptly provide from time to time an estoppel certificate to confirm the terms of,
and no default under, the Ground Lease.
6. 6. Consent for Mortgage. Landlord agrees that the Tenant is authorized to obtain
a loan, the repayment of which is to be insured by HUD and secured by the Security
Instrument on this leasehold estate. The Tenant is further authorized to execute all
documents necessary as determined by HUD and otherwise to comply with Program
Obligations for obtaining such an insured loan.
7. 7. Intentionally deleted.

8. 8. Conveyance by Tenant. If approved in writing by HUD in advance, the Tenant
may convey, assign, transfer, lease, sublease or sell all or any part of its leasehold
interest in the Property without the need for approval or consent by any other person
or entity.
9. 9. Insurance.
(a) Insurance policies shall be in an amount, and with such company or
companies and in such form, and against such risks and hazards, as shall be
approved by Lender and HUD.
(b) The Landlord shall not take out separate insurance concurrent in form or
contributing in the event of loss with that specifically required to be furnished
by the Tenant to Lender. The Landlord may at its own expense, however,
take out separate insurance which is not concurrent in form or not
contributing in the event of loss with that specifically required to be furnished
by the Tenant to Lender.
10. Condemnation. All awards and/or proceeds from a condemnation, or the negotiated
sale in lieu of condemnation, of all or any part of the Tenant's and/or Landlord's interests
in the Property, Improvements or the leasehold estate, shall be paid to Lender and
applied as provided in the Security Instrument.
11. Intentionally deleted.
10. Condemnation.
12. Intentionally deleted.

Page 46 of 53

(a) If all or any part of the Property shall be taken or damaged by condemnation,
that portion of any award attributable to the Tenant's interest in the Property
or leasehold estate or damage to the Tenant's interest in the Property or
leasehold estate shall be paid to Lender or otherwise disposed of as may be
provided in the Security Instrument. Any portion of the award attributable
solely to the Landlord’s interest shall be paid to the Landlord. After the date
of taking, the annual rent shall be reduced ratably by the proportion which the
award paid to the Landlord bears to the total value of the Property as
established by the amount HUD is to pay, as set forth in Section 7 of this
Lease Addendum.
(b) In the event of a negotiated sale of all or a portion of the Property, in lieu of
condemnation, the proceeds shall be distributed and annual rent reduced as
provided in cases of condemnation above, but the approval of HUD and
Lender shall be required as to the amount and division of the payments to be
received.
11. Tenant Default on Lease; Cure Rights; Termination. The Landlord may
terminate the Lease prior to the expiration day of the full term of this Lease
(“Expiration Date”) after a Tenant default under this Lease (“Lease Event of
Default”), but only under the following circumstances and procedures.
(a) If any Lease Event of Default shall occur, then and in any such event, the
Landlord shall at any time thereafter during the continuance of such Lease
Event of Default and prior to any cure, give written notice of such default(s)
(“Notice of Default”) to the Tenant, Lender, and HUD, specifying the Lease
Event of Default and the methods of cure, or declaring that a Lease Event of
Default is incurable. If the Lease Event of Default is a failure to pay money,
the Landlord shall specify and itemize the amounts of such default. Failure to
pay money shall be specified as a separate default and not combined with a
non-monetary Lease Event of Default.
(b) Within sixty (60) days from the date of giving the Notice of Default to the
Tenant, the Tenant must cure a monetary default by paying the Landlord all
amounts specified in the Notice of Default and must cure any specified Lease
Event of Default that is capable of being cured within such period.
(c) During the period of one hundred-eighty (180) days commencing upon the
date Notice of Default was given to Lender and HUD, Lender or HUD may:
(1) cure any Lease Event of Default; and
(2) commence foreclosure proceedings or institute other state or federal
procedures to enforce Lender’s or HUD's rights with respect to the
leasehold estate.

Page 47 of 53

(d) If HUD or Lender commences foreclosure or other enforcement action within
such one hundred-eighty (180) days, then its cure period shall be extended
during the period of the foreclosure or other action and for 90 days after the
ownership of the Tenant's rights under the Lease is established in or
assigned to HUD or such Lender or a purchaser at any foreclosure sale
pursuant to such foreclosure or other action. The transfer of the Tenant's
rights under the Lease to Lender, HUD or purchaser, pursuant to such
foreclosure or other action shall be deemed a termination of any incurable
Lease Event of Default and such terminated Lease Event of Default shall not
give the Landlord any right to terminate the Lease. Such purchaser may cure
a curable Lease Event of Default within said ninety (90) days.
(e) If the Tenant, Lender or HUD reasonably undertake to cure any Lease Event
of Default during the applicable cure period and diligently pursues such cure,
the Landlord shall grant such further reasonable time as is necessary to
complete such cure. If after the expiration of all of the foregoing cure
periods, no cure or termination of an existing Lease Event of Default has
been achieved as aforesaid, then and in that event, the Lease shall
terminate, and, on such date, the term of this Lease shall expire and
terminate and all rights of the Tenant under the Lease shall cease. All costs
and expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Landlord (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) occasioned by any
default by the Tenant under this Lease shall constitute additional rent
hereunder. The Landlord shall have no right to terminate this Lease except
as provided in this Section 11.
12. Lender/HUD Option for New Lease.
(a) Upon termination of this Lease pursuant to Section 11 above, the Landlord
shall immediately seek to obtain possession of the Property. Upon acquiring
such possession, the Landlord shall notify HUD and Lender in writing. Lender
and HUD shall each have six (6) months from the date of receipt of such
notice of acquisition to elect to take, as Tenant, a new lease on the Property.
(b) Such new lease shall have a term equal to the unexpired portion of the term
of this Lease immediately prior to such termination and shall, except as
otherwise provided herein, be on the same terms and conditions as
contained in this Lease, including without limitation, the option to purchase
set forth under Section 7 above, except that Lender’s or HUD's liability for
rent shall not extend beyond their occupancy under such lease. The
Landlord shall tender such new lease to Lender or HUD within thirty (30) days
after a request for such lease and shall deliver possession of the Property
immediately upon execution of the new lease.
(c) Upon executing a new lease, Lender or HUD shall pay to the Landlord any
unpaid rent due or that would have become due under this Lease to the date
of the execution of the new lease, including any taxes which were liens on the

Page 48 of 53

Property and which were paid by the Landlord, less any net rentals or other
income which the Landlord may have received on account of the Property
since the date of default under this Lease.
13. 13. Landlord Cooperation for Needed Authorizations. The Landlord agrees that
within ten (10) business days after receipt of written request from the Tenant, it will
join in any and all applications for permits, licenses or other authorizations required
by any Governmental Authority in connection with any work which the Tenant may
do hereunder and will also join in any grants for easements for electric, telephone,
telecommunications, cable, gas, water, sewer and such other public utilities and
facilities as may be reasonably necessary in the operation of the Property and if, at
the expiration of such ten (10) day period, the Landlord shall not have joined in any
such application, or grants for easements, the Tenant shall have the right to
execute such application and grants in the name of the Landlord, and for that
purpose, the Landlord hereby irrevocably appoints the Tenant as its attorney-in-fact
to execute such papers on behalf of the Landlord, only to the extent that a public
body as Landlord may do so within the exercise of its municipal powers and
responsibilities.
14. Taxes. Nothing in this Lease shall require the Tenant to pay any franchise, estate,
inheritance, succession, capital levy or transfer tax of the Landlord or any income
excess profits or revenue tax, or any other tax, assessment charge or levy upon the
rent payable by the Tenant under this Lease.
15. Notices. All notices, demands and requests which are required to be given by the
Landlord, Tenant, Lender or HUD in connection with the Lease and this Lease
Addendum shall be in writing and shall be sent by registered or certified mail,
postage prepaid, and addressed to the address of the party as given in this
instrument unless a request for a change in this address has been sent to the party
giving the notice by registered or certified mail prior to the time when such notice is
given.
