CAIE.DEG 0 9 2025DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT NO.2025-01 D.4BW 1(9) jerThis Development Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into as of this 7 ' day October, 2025 by and between the City of Santa Ana, California ("City") on the one hand, and South Coast Plaza, a California general partnership ("Owner" or "SCP"), on the other hand. City and Owner may be referred to in this Agreement individually as a "party" or collective as the "parties." RECITALS A. City is authorized to enter into binding development agreements with persons having legal or equitable interests in real property for the development of such property, pursuant to Section 65864, et sea. of the Government Code. B. This Agreement constitutes a current exercise of City's police powers to provide predictability to SCP in the development approval process by vesting the permitted uses, density, intensity of use, timing and phasing of development, and applicable ordinances consistent with the Development Plan in exchange for SCP's commitment to provide significant public benefits to City as set forth in Section 4 below. C. SCP has requested that City enter into this Agreement and proceedings have been taken in accordance with applicable State law and the rules and regulations of the City in furtherance thereof. D. The best interests of the citizens of the City of Santa Ana and the public health, safety and welfare will be served by entering into this Agreement. E. The City Council hereby finds and determines that this Agreement is of major significance because it will provide significant economic benefit to the City through additional jobs created by the construction and operation of the Project, property and sales tax revenue to the City, infrastructure improvements, neighborhood revitalization, and general economic benefit. F. The provision by SCP of the public benefits as set forth in Section 4 below allows the City to realize significant economic, recreational, open space, educational, social, and other public benefits to Cary. These public benefits will advance the interests and meet the needs of Santa Ana residents and visitors to a significantly greater extent than would development of the Property without this Agreement. G. The physical effects, if any, of the Project and this Agreement have been analyzed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act as amended to date and as documented in the Final Environmental Impact Report entitled "Village Santa Ana Specific Plan Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (State Clearinghouse No. 2020-029087) and City of Santa Ana DP No. 2023-34 ("Project FEiR").

Should the referendum qualify for the ballot, Owner may request, at or prior to the Council meeting at which the Council will take up the referendum issue, that the City Council repeal the ordinance and/or any Project Approvals rather than submitting it to the voters. If Owner does not request that the City Council repeal the ordinance and/or any Project Approvals and the City Council submits the referendum to the voters, Owner shall deposit Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) ("Referendum Deposit") with the City. City may use the Referendum Deposit to pay any and all costs associated with the said referendum measure (e.g., legal fees for outside counsel). Any fimds remaining in the Petition Deposit may be put toward the Referendum Deposit at the Owner's request. If at any time the Referendum Deposit account has Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) or less remaining, Owner shall, within three (3) business days of receiving notice from the City, deposit with the City Twenty -Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) as requested by the City to cover necessary costs and expenses associated with the referendum and holding the related election. Following certification of the election results, any funds remaining in the Petition Deposit or the Referendum Deposit account shall be returned to the Owner within thirty (30) days of certification of the election results. In the event Owner requests that the City Council repeal the ordinance and the City Council nonetheless determines to submit the ordinance to the voters, Owner shall have no financial responsibility for the costs associated with holding the election, including any obligation to make a Referendum Deposit. 2.8.4. Completion of the Project in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, which is hereby defined to be: (i) issuance by the City of all required occupancy permits and final approvals for occupancy for the Project's 1,583 multi -family residential units, 80,000 square feet of commercial uses, and 300,000 square feet of office space. (ii) acceptance by City or applicable public agency of all required dedications in connection with same; and (iii) written notification by City to Owner that the Project is complete. 2.8.5. Termination of the Agreement as provided under this Agreement, including but not limited to Section 7.4 herein, shall not constitute termination of any other Project Approvals. Upon the termination of this Agreement, no party shall have any further right or obligation hereunder except with respect to any obligation to have been performed prior to such termination or with respect to any default in the performance of the provisions of this Agreement that has occurred prior to such termination or with respect to any obligations that are specifically set forth as surviving this Agreement. Upon such termination, any Development Impact Fees paid by Owner to City on which construction has not yet begun shall be refunded to Owner by City. 2.9. Notices. 29.1. As used in this Agreement, "notice" includes, but is not limited to, the communication of notice, request, demand, approval, statement, report, acceptance, consent, waiver, appointment or other communication required or permitted hereunder. 2.9.2.

To the maximum extent possible, any such regulations shall be applied and construed so as to provide Owner with the rights and assurances provided under this Agreement. (e) Regulations that are not in material conflict with this Agreement or the Development Plan. For avoidance of doubt, any regulation, whether adopted by initiative or otherwise, limiting the rate or timing of development of the Property shall be deemed to materially conflict with the Development Plan and shall therefore not be applicable to the development of the Property.

Timing of Development. Because the California Supreme Court held in Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo, 37 Cal. 3d 465 (1984), that the failure of the parties in that case to provide for the timing of development resulted in a later -adopted initiative restricting the timing of development to prevail over the parties' agreement, it is the specific intent of the parties to provide for the timing of the Project in this Agreement.

Owner acknowledges and agrees that the provisions hereof shall not preclude the application to the Project of a moratorium or other similar limitation (of the type described in the preceding sentence) enacted in order to protect an imminent threat to the public health or safety. 3.7.
