COVENANT FOR INFRASTRUCTURE CONSTRUCTION
THIS COVENANT FOR INFRASTRUCTURE CONSTRUCTION ("Covenant") is made by the HOUSING AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF SEATTLE, a public body corporate and politic under the laws of the State of Washington ("Grantor" or "SHA"), on behalf of itself, its successors and assigns for the benefit of THE CITY OF SEATTLE, a Washington municipal corporation (the "City"). The effective date of this Covenant is the date of recording of this Covenant, following execution and acknowledgement by the parties to this Covenant, and consent by 820 YESLER WAY LLLP, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., and the City through its Office of Housing. RECITALS A. Grantor is the fee simple title owner of certain real property located in the City of Seattle, King County, Washington, legally described as Yesler Terrace Community, Volume _____ of Plats, Pages ____ ____ (the "Plat"), and the 820 YESLER WAY LLLP with SHA as the General Partner has a leasehold interest in Lot 6 in Block 2, as shown on the Plat. The Plat was recorded on ______________________. Prior to recording, the Plat was approved and confirmed, and streets vacated and dedicated, by City of Seattle Ordinance ____________________ ("Plat Approval and Street Vacation Ordinance"). B. An integral part of the Plat is the vacation of existing streets and dedication of new streets within the Plat. In connection with concept approval of the proposed street vacations and dedications under C.F. 311389 ("Preliminary Street Vacation Approval"), the Seattle City Council required that certain public benefit elements be constructed. The public benefit elements include three Pocket Parks, a Green Street Loop, the 10th Avenue Hillclimb, and a tree protection tract and Multi-Use Public Trail. The Preliminary Street Vacation Approval recognizes that construction of the public benefit elements will be phased. C. Prior to passage of the ordinance approving and confirming the Plat, the City of Seattle Hearing Examiner granted approval of the preliminary plat with conditions in Hearing Examiner File: MUP-13-016 (SD) (DPD Project 3012996) ("Preliminary Plat Approval"). The Preliminary Plat Approval requires a phasing plan and a covenant as required by Section 23.22.070E of the Seattle Municipal Code ("SMC") that designates the particular facilities and improvements that must be completed as conditions to specified Development within the Plat. Each owner of property where Development is to be conditioned under the phasing plan shall record a covenant against that property in favor of the City by which the owner agrees, on behalf of its successors and assigns, to construct the required facilities and improvements. D. In connection with review of the Plat, the Director of Transportation has reviewed and approved a phasing plan pursuant to Section 23.22.070.E. E. The facilities and improvements required by the Preliminary Plat Approval, and the public benefit elements required by the Preliminary Street Vacation Approval, were not constructed at the time of passage of the Plat Approval and Street Vacation Ordinance. Therefore, the Plat Approval and Street Vacation Ordinance requires this Covenant to ensure that Required Infrastructure and public benefit elements are installed subsequent to Plat approval as required by this Covenant. F. Grantor and the City intend that this Covenant shall be permanent and run with the land within the Plat and be binding upon Grantor's successors and assigns, unless and until relinquished by the City, in its sole discretion.

Grantor, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns as owners of the Lots, acknowledges and agrees that, in addition to any other remedies available to the City, (1) the City will not issue a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy for a structure on a Lot until all elements of Required Infrastructure required for Development of that Lot have been substantially completed, the City has inspected and conditionally accepted those elements, and the City has received easements for Interim Pathways and Interim Sidewalks, if applicable, as provided in the Public Access, Easement and Maintenance Agreement, and such easements or other rights as the City deems necessary, as provided in this Covenant, (2) the City will not issue a Final Certificate of Occupancy for a structure on a Lot until the City determines that all corrections or punchlist items identified prior to issuance of a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy have been completed to the satisfaction of the City and the City accepts all elements of Required Infrastructure required for Development of that Lot, and (3) the City will not release this Covenant until after completion of the Required Infrastructure, as defined in Section 2.B.1 below and the Lot Owner's compliance with the requirements of Section 6 below. The City has, and shall have, no obligation, duty, or responsibility to construct or pay for construction of any element of the Required Infrastructure. B. Construction of Required Infrastructure. 1) Grantor will be constructing portions of the Required Infrastructure in advance of Development of particular Lots. To the extent all elements of Required Infrastructure have not been constructed by Grantor in advance, and/or the City has not inspected and accepted those elements and/or received record drawings, in format acceptable to the applicable City department, then Development of any Lot abutting any portion of a Street Right-of-Way Segment shall require completion by the Lot Owner of all required Street Infrastructure for the entire Street Right-of-Way Segment. Completion means construction of all required elements of Required Infrastructure, inspection and final acceptance by the City, assignment of contractor warranties for the Required Infrastructure to the City for Required Infrastructure to be owned by the City, and actual receipt by the City of record drawings in format acceptable to the applicable City department. All references in Section 2.B to construction "by the Lot Owner(s)" shall mean that the Lot Owner's obligation to construct Required Infrastructure applies only to the extent construction of the Required Infrastructure has not been completed in advance of Development of the Lot Owner's Lot. 2) The Required Infrastructure required to be constructed by the Lot Owner includes, but may not be limited to, all of the items listed in Chart A, which is attached to and a part of this Covenant. 3) Except as otherwise specified in Chart A or final permits approved by the City and/or the SIP process, which may require additional or different infrastructure to be built, Development of any Lot abutting any portion of a Street Right-of-Way Segment shall require construction by the Lot Owner of (a) all Right-of-Way Frontage Improvements for that portion of the right-of-way lying between the Lot and the back of curb, and (b) Interim Sidewalks as necessary to provide continuity of pedestrian access and connectivity to both intersections on the same side of the street as the Lot, as well as on the opposite side of the street between intersections if a building or buildings are located on said opposite side of the street. 4) Development of any Lot that includes any portion of a Private Access Drive or Public Utility Easement shall require construction by the Lot Owner of the Driveway and Utility Infrastructure for the entire length of the Private Access Drive or Public Utility Easement between Roadways, except as follows: a. Block 5: Development of any Lot that includes any portion of Easement 5.2 shall require: (i) construction of the Driveway and Public Access Pathway adjacent to the Lot; (ii) either completion of the Driveway and Public Access Pathway for their full length from 10 th Avenue S. to 12 th Avenue S., or connection to the remaining roadway in the vacated S. Washington Street, and Interim Pathways, such that vehicular and pedestrian connectivity are maintained between 10 th Avenue S. and 12 th Avenue S.; (iii) installation of Utility Infrastructure by the Lot Owner for the full length of Easement 5.3; and (iv) closing of the existing slip lane in 12 th Avenue S., and installation of new Metro trolley lines in Boren Avenue and 12 th Avenue S. The installation of new Metro trolley lines shall be at the expense of Grantor pursuant to an interlocal agreement between Grantor and Metro. b. Block 6, Lots 8 and 9: The length of the required Driveway is the area within Easement 6.2, which includes land for the turnaround required by SMC 23.53.025.D. Development on Lots 8 and 9 does not require that the Driveway in Easement 6.5 be installed, as access from Easement 6.2 is adequate. c. Block 6, Lots 16-21 and 22-27: The length of the required Driveway is the area within Easement 6.5, which includes land for the turnaround required by SMC 23.53.025.D. Development on Lots 16-21 and 22-27 does not require that the Driveway in Easement 6.2 be installed, as access from Easement 6.5 is adequate. 5) Development of any Lot that includes or is adjacent to any portion of a Private Access Drive shall require construction by the Lot Owner of all Private Access Drive Frontage Improvements for the full length of the Lot adjacent to the Driveway. 6) Development of any Lot that abuts Tract A in Block 2 or includes or abuts any portion of Easements 5.2, 6.4 or 7.1, as shown on the Plat, shall require construction by the Lot Owner of the Public Access Pathway for the full length of the Lot that abuts such Tract or includes or abuts such easement, along with any Interim Pathways that are necessary to provide connections to the street at both ends of the Tract or easement (or, in the case of Easement 6.4, to S. Washington Street and the 10 th Avenue Hillclimb). 7) Development of any Lot that includes any portion of Easement 6.2 or Easement 6.5 shall require construction by the Lot Owner of the Private Pathway for the full length of the Lot, along with any Interim Pathways that are necessary to provide connection to S. Washington Street (in the case of Easement 6.2) or 10 th Avenue S. (in the case of Easement 6.5). 8) Where a Private Access Drive in Block 5 or Block 6 connects to a Street Right-of-Way Segment for which the Street Infrastructure has not been completed, the City may require that Development of any Lot that includes any portion of such a Private Access Drive shall require construction by the Lot Owner of Street Infrastructure for Street Right-of-Way Segment(s), as well as Interim Sidewalks, as needed to provide vehicle, pedestrian and utility connectivity to existing Required Infrastructure. 9) Development of any Lot abutting Tract B in Block 5 shall require construction by the Lot Owner of the Multi-Use Public Trail along the full length of the Lot that abuts Tract B, and shall require connection to the existing public sidewalk in E. Yesler Way for the remaining length of Tract B. 10) Development of any Lot that abuts a Pocket Park shall require construction by the Lot Owner of the Pocket Park and the Right-of-Way Frontage Improvements and Street Infrastructure for the applicable Tract. The Pocket Park in Tract A of Block 5 (as provided in Chart A) shall be developed by the Lot Owner of Lot 13 or 14, whichever Lot is developed first. 11) The following exceptions apply to the foregoing requirements of Section 2.B: a. The Development of the Phase IIa building on Lot 6 of Block 2 shall not require construction of Street Infrastructure for Yesler Way nor the Right-ofWay Frontage Improvements on the south side of Yesler Way between S. Washington Street and Broadway. b. The renovation of the steam plant on Lot 1 of Block 2 shall not require construction of Required Infrastructure including Roadway, Right-of-Way Frontage Improvements, Interim Sidewalks or Street Infrastructure for 8 th Avenue between Yesler Way and 9 th Avenue, and Fir Street between 9 th Avenue and Broadway, and Public Access Pathway and Utility Infrastructure for Tract A in Block 2. c. The Development of the Phase IIb building on Lots 13, 14, and 15 of Block 6 shall not require construction of Roadway, Right-of-Way Frontage Improvements, Interim Sidewalks or Street Infrastructure for S. Washington Street between Yesler Way and 10 th Avenue S. or construction of the Driveway within Easement 6.5. 12) Prior to the Development of any Lot, the Lot Owner shall prepare and submit a Service Plan to Seattle City Light. Upon written approval of the Service Plan by Seattle City Light, the construction or installation of the SCL Facilities in the Service Plan shall be the sole responsibility and shall be done at the sole expense of the Lot Owner. The purpose of the requirement in this Section 2.B.12 is to ensure that the SCL Facilities are integrated, well-planned, and cohesive as Development within the Plat occurs over time, and that there is minimal or no disturbance of other Required Infrastructure from any subsequent construction, installation or extension of SCL Facilities. C. Block 1. 1) The City intends to build a neighborhood park in Block 1 of the Plat, subject to satisfaction of all of the following conditions: a. Conditions described in the Yesler Terrace Land Transfer Agreement dated ___________________________ between SHA and the City, b. SHA's demolition of existing buildings in Block 1, c.

Washington Street between Yesler Way and 10th Avenue S., or for 10th Avenue S. between S. Washington Street and Yesler Way, or for Yesler Way between 10th Avenue S. and S. Washington Street, all of which is the responsibility of other Lot Owners as provided in Chart A, or, if the City will complete the neighborhood park prior to Development by other Lot Owners responsible for Required Infrastructure, then SHA shall complete the Required Infrastructure in Yesler Way between S. Washington Street to Broadway no later than the City's completion of the neighborhood park. D. Street Right-of-Way Segments or easements or Tracts in Blocks 2 through 8 of the Plat are listed in attached Chart A, along with the Required Infrastructure whose construction is required by the Lot Owners for Development of Lots in each of those Blocks. In the event Chart A does not include an element of Required Infrastructure whose construction is required by paragraph 2.B for Development of a particular Lot, the requirements of paragraph 2.B shall govern.

SHA, on behalf of itself, its successors and assigns, hereby grants to each Lot Owner responsible for construction of a Pocket Park, the Multi-Use Public Trail, Interim Pathway, Public Access Pathway, or other improvements in any Tract or easement described or depicted on the Plat a temporary construction easement on, across and through the applicable Tract or easement for all purposes necessary or convenient for construction of the improvement, provided that such temporary construction easement shall in no way prevent public access required by the Public Access, Easement and Maintenance Agreement. 3. MUP and Building Permit applications for Development within the Plat shall be accompanied by the Street Improvement Plans required by the Seattle Department of Transportation, based on that Department's SIP procedures in effect at the time the MUP or Building Permit application is submitted to the Department of Planning and Development. The MUP applications, Street Improvement Plans, Street Use Permit applications and Building Permit applications shall incorporate all Required Infrastructure. 4. Easements or other rights, if not expressly granted in this Covenant, on the Plat or in the Public Access, Easement and Maintenance Agreement, necessary in the sole judgment of the City to install, construct, maintain, operate, repair, replace, alter or improve Required Infrastructure to Blocks, Lots, Tracts, streets or Private Access Drives or other easements within the Plat shall be granted by SHA or its successors in interest to the City, prior to City conditional acceptance of the Required Infrastructure and the City's issuance of a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy for the Development associated with the Required Infrastructure. 5. Lot Owners shall provide access through temporary easement or right-of-entry license as specified by the City for maintenance and repair of existing public utility infrastructure within the vacated rights-of-way and on private property until redevelopment. During redevelopment, existing infrastructure shall be removed or abandoned by the Lot Owner, at the Lot Owner's sole expense, as determined by the City. 6. Following completion, as defined in Section 2.B.1, of all elements of Required Infrastructure required for Development of a Lot, grant of any necessary easements, as provided in Section 4 above and in the Public Access, Easement and Maintenance Agreement, the City agrees, upon completed written request by Grantor, its successors or assigns (as provided below), to record a partial release of the Covenant with respect to the Lot. A completed written request must be delivered to the Director of Transportation, or functional successor, on a form provided by the Seattle Department of Transportation, signed by the fee owner of the Lot to be released, and must be accompanied by payment of fees for review as determined by the City. Each partial release of the Covenant shall be accomplished by execution of a document titled "Partial Release of Covenant", in form and substance satisfactory to the City ("Partial Release"), by the Director of Transportation, or functional successor, and by recording of the Partial Release in the real estate records of King County at the cost of the fee owner of the Lot requesting the release. 7. The covenants herein of Grantor on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns are made for the benefit of the City. In case of any breach or violation of this Covenant, the City shall have all remedies available at law or in equity, including without limitation, specific performance. Except as provided in Section 6, nothing herein shall be construed to place any obligation on the City. In the case of any breach by the City of its obligation in Section 6, Grantor and its successors and assigns shall have the sole remedy of specific performance. 8. Except for actions seeking specific performance of the City's obligations set forth in Section 6, Grantor and its successors and assigns as Lot Owners, hereby covenant and agree to forever release, defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the City, its officials, officers, employees, and agents, from any and all costs, claims, demands, causes of action, judgments, damages, expenses, or liabilities, including reasonable attorney fees and necessary litigation expenses, resulting from any actual or alleged bodily injury (including death), actual or alleged damage to property arising out of, in connection with, or that are related to the performance of, or failure to perform, any work or obligation in connection with this Covenant, or any breach of this Covenant, to the extent permitted by RCW 4.24.115. Solely to give full force and effect to Grantor's indemnity obligation contained herein and for the benefit of the City only, Grantor specifically and expressly waives any immunity it may have under the Washington State Industrial Insurance Act, Title 51 RCW or any other industrial insurance, workers' compensation or similar laws and acknowledges that this waiver was mutually negotiated by the parties as part of the consideration for this Agreement.

In no event shall Grantor's indemnification obligations under this Covenant be limited to the extent of any insurance available to or provided by Grantor. The indemnification obligations under this Covenant do not apply to any liabilities, claims, causes of action, judgments or expenses resulting from bodily injury or property damage caused by the sole negligence or intentional acts of the public or the City, its officers, employees, elected officials, agents or subcontractors. 9.

The insurance shall include "The City of Seattle, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers" as additional insureds. Grantor's and successor Lot Owners' insurance shall be primary and non-contributory to any insurance maintained by or available to the City. The City of Seattle shall be given not less than 30 days' notice of cancellation of the policy, except in the case of nonpayment, then not less than 10 days prior notice is required.

PUBLIC ACCESS, EASEMENT AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT
THIS PUBLIC ACCESS, EASEMENT AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made by the HOUSING AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF SEATTLE, a public body corporate and politic under the laws of the State of Washington ("SHA" or "Grantor") and the YESLER TERRACE OWNERS ASSOCIATION, a Washington nonprofit corporation ("Association") for the benefit of THE CITY OF SEATTLE, a Washington municipal corporation (the "City"). The effective date of this Agreement is the date of recording of this Agreement, following execution and acknowledgement by the parties to this Agreement, and consent by 820 YESLER WAY LLLP, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., and the City through its Office of Housing ("Effective Date"). RECITALS A. SHA is the fee simple title owner of certain real property located in the City of Seattle, King County, Washington, legally described as Yesler Terrace Community, Volume _______ of Plats, Pages _______ _______ (referred to as "Plat" or "Property"), and the 820 YESLER WAY LLLP with SHA as the General Partner has a leasehold interest in Lot 6 of Block 2, as shown on the Plat. The Plat was recorded on _____________________________, 2014. B. The City Council granted preliminary approval with conditions of SHA's street vacation petition on September 4, 2012 (City of Seattle Clerk File 311389) ("Preliminary Street Vacation Approval"). One condition of the Preliminary Street Vacation Approval is that SHA develop and maintain specific public benefit elements, which are described in detail in the Preliminary Street Vacation Approval ("Public Benefit Elements"). Another condition of the Preliminary Street Vacation Approval is that SHA execute and record a Property Use and Development Agreement or other binding document to ensure that the Public Benefit Elements remain open and accessible to the public and to outline future maintenance obligations, programming and management for the Public Benefit Elements. The Public Benefit Elements located within the Plat include: 1) Pocket Parks in Tract A of Block 3 (Easement 3.1), Tract A of Block 5 (Easement 5.4), and Tract A of Block 7 (Easement 7.3) (each of which is a "Pocket Park" and all of which collectively are the "Pocket Parks"), 2) a multi-use trail in Tract B of Block 5 ("Multi-Use Public Trail"), and 3) the portion of the 10th Avenue Hillclimb located within Easement 6.8. (The remaining portion of the 10th Avenue Hillclimb and other Public Benefit Elements are located within City rights-of-way.) Lots, Tracts, Blocks and Easements are as depicted on the Plat. C. Pursuant to the decision of the Seattle Hearing Examiner in MUP-13-016(SD), the City granted preliminary plat approval for the Property, subject to conditions, on August 30, 2013 ("Preliminary Plat Approval"). The Preliminary Plat Approval requires a document to be recorded in connection with final plat approval that is binding on the Property and the Owners of Lots within the Property ("Owners") by which public access to the Pocket Parks is ensured, and by which easements are granted for the benefit of the public for: (i) public access pathways within Tract A of Block 2, and within Easements 5.2, 6.4 and 7.1, as depicted on the Plat (each of which is a "Public Access Pathway" and all of which collectively are the "Public Access Pathways"), and ii) the Multi-Use Public Trail. D. The Preliminary Plat Approval also requires a covenant to be recorded in connection with final plat approval that is binding on the Property and the Owners by which the Owners agree to construct the facilities and improvements required by the Preliminary Plat approval. In fulfillment of that condition and to establish the required timing and responsibility for construction of the facilities and improvements required by the Preliminary Street Vacation Approval and Preliminary Plat Approval, a Covenant for Infrastructure Construction was made by SHA on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns for the benefit of the City and recorded under King County recording number _________________________________ ("Covenant for Infrastructure Construction"). E. The Preliminary Plat Approval also requires a document to be recorded in connection with final plat approval that is binding on the Property and the Owners to: (i) ensure maintenance of the Public Access Pathways and Public Benefit Elements located on private property; and (ii) ensure reconstruction or replacement, as directed by the Seattle Department of Transportation in its sole discretion, of Interim Sidewalks and Interim Pathways, installed pursuant to the Covenant for Infrastructure Construction, that become damaged or deteriorated. F. The Preliminary Plat Approval provides that the Owners' obligations for maintenance, repair, reconstruction or replacement, as described in Recital E. above, may be performed by an owners maintenance corporation while ensuring that the ultimate responsibility remains that of the Owners as provided in Section 13.D. G. The Preliminary Plat Approval also requires that each Owner pay assessments to the owners maintenance corporation to fund performance by the owners maintenance corporation of such maintenance, reconstruction and replacement obligations and that the owners maintenance corporation impose on each Lot within the Property a lien in favor of the owners maintenance corporation to secure the Owner's assessment payment obligation. H. Pursuant to articles of incorporation filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Washington on March 7, 2013, and restated articles of incorporation filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Washington on _____________________________, 2014, SHA formed the Association. One function of the Association is to maintain the Pocket Parks, Public Access Pathways, Multi-Use Public Trail, 10th Avenue Hillclimb (portion within Easement 6.8 depicted on the Plat and the portion within City rights-of-way), as well as other Public Benefit Elements, Interim Pathways, and Interim Sidewalks. I. Pursuant to the Declaration of Covenant to Convey Tracts, made by SHA for the benefit of the City and recorded on or about the date of recording of this Agreement, SHA has made a binding commitment to convey Tract A of Block 2, Tract A of Block 3, Tract A of Block 5, Tract B of Block 5, and Tract A of Block 7 (all as depicted on the Plat) to the Association. AGREEMENT In consideration of the foregoing and the covenants and agreements contained in or referenced by this Agreement, the parties agree as follows: 1. Definitions. The definitions contained in the Recitals above are incorporated into the Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement have the meanings defined on the Plat or in the Covenant for Infrastructure Construction. 2. Purpose. This Agreement is entered into in fulfillment of certain conditions of the Preliminary Street Vacation Approval and Preliminary Plat Approval concerning public access, programming and maintenance. 3. Grant of Easement for Public Access Pathways and Multi-Use Public Trail. A. SHA, as Grantor, hereby grants, conveys and warrants, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, to the City of Seattle and its successors and assigns, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances except as identified on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein ("Title Exceptions"), a perpetual easement for public access and use ("Easement") over, under, across and through the following portions of the Property, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement: (i) The area depicted as Tract A in Block 2 on the Plat (having a width of 32 feet); (ii) The area depicted as Tract B in Block 5 on the Plat (having a width of 23 feet); (iii) The area depicted as Easement 5.2 on the Plat (having a width of 34 feet); (iv) The area depicted as Easement 6.4 on the Plat (having a width of 32 feet); and (v) The area depicted as Easement 7.1 on the Plat (having a width of 32 feet), (each of which is an "Easement Area" and all of which collectively are the "Easement Areas"). B. Required Widths for Pathways and Trail. SHA has committed, for itself, its successors and assigns, through the Covenant for Infrastructure Construction, to the timing and requirements for construction of Interim Pathways, Public Access Pathways, and the Multi-Use Public Trail within the Easement Areas among other required infrastructure. Within each of the Easement Areas described in Section 3.A, the required minimum width of the area accessible to the general public that will include the Public Access Pathway or Multi-Use Public Trail is as follows (the "Required Width"): Tract A in Block 2: 15 feet Tract B in Block 5: 12 feet Easement 5.2: 6 feet Easement 6.4: 15 feet Easement 7.1: 6 feet C. Partial Release of Easement. Following completion and City acceptance of construction of a Public Access Pathway within all or part of the length of an Easement Area as provided in the Covenant for Infrastructure Construction, the City agrees, upon completed written request by SHA, its successors or assigns (as provided below), to release the Easement over those portions of an Easement Area along the length of the constructed Public Access Pathway that are outside of the area accessible to the general public, which area must be at least the Required Width. Following completion and acceptance of construction of the Multi-Use Public Trail within the entire length of Tract B of Block 5, as provided in the Covenant for Infrastructure Construction, the City agrees, upon completed written request by SHA, its successors or assigns (as provided below), to release the Easement as to Tract B of Block 5 outside of the area accessible to the general public, which area must be at least the Required Width. The non-released portion of each Easement Area shall be a perpetual, exclusive easement for public access and use, subject to applicable Public Utility Easements granted on the Plat.

Easement for Portion of 10th Avenue Hillclimb within Lot 15 in Block 6 (Easement 6.8) on the Plat. SHA, as Grantor, has granted on the face of the Plat a perpetual non-exclusive easement for public access and use over, under, across and through the area depicted as Easement 6.8 on the Plat, which contains the portion of the 10th Avenue Hillclimb located on Lot 15 in Block 6 on the Plat ("Hillclimb Public Access Easement Area"). 6. Grant of Temporary Easement for Interim Pathways and Interim Sidewalks. The locations of Interim Pathways and Interim Sidewalks will be determined as individual Lots are developed within the Plat. If Grantor, or its successors or assigns, in connection with Development of a Lot proposes to locate any Interim Pathway outside of an Easement Area or any Interim Sidewalk outside of street right-of-way, then the location must be approved by the City in connection with City review of permit applications for such Lot, and Grantor, its successors and assigns, shall grant, convey and warrant to the City of Seattle and its successors and assigns a temporary easement for public access and use over, across and through the approved temporary easement areas. The temporary easement areas are referred to in this Agreement as Interim Pathway Easement Areas and Interim Sidewalk Easement Areas. The grant of temporary easements shall be a condition of approval of permits for Development. The temporary easements shall be consistent with the provisions of this Agreement, and shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the City's Director of Transportation, or functional successor. Each City-approved temporary easement shall be recorded in the records of King County prior to issuance of a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy for the Development that is the subject of the permit(s). Following completion, as defined in the Covenant for Infrastructure Construction in Section 2.B.1, of a Public Access Pathway, and/or a permanent sidewalk within City right-of-way, as applicable, the City agrees, upon completed written request by the temporary easement grantor, to release applicable temporary easements for the Interim Pathway(s) and Interim Sidewalk(s). 7. Terms of Public Access and Use. A. Commencement of Public Access and Use. Public access and use of each Interim Pathway Easement Area, Interim Sidewalk Easement Area, the Easement Areas, the Hillclimb Public Access Easement Area, and each Pocket Park Easement Area, commences upon substantial completion of construction of the applicable Required Infrastructure in the applicable easement area, and inspection and conditional acceptance by the City, as provided in the Covenant for Infrastructure Construction. Each of the foregoing, upon substantial completion of construction and conditional acceptance by the City, is a "Publicly Accessible Area" and together are referred to collectively as "Publicly Accessible Areas." The right of public access to the Publicly Accessible Areas is subject to the limitations contained in this Section 7. B. Hours of Access for Publicly Accessible Areas. (i) For Interim Pathways, whether constructed in an Easement Area or an Interim Pathway Easement Area, and Public Access Pathways, the hours of public access are from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM each day of the year, except as provided in Subsection 7.D. below or in case of emergency, unless different hours are agreed to in writing by the City, as evidenced by a written and recorded amendment to this Agreement. (ii) For Interim Sidewalks, whether constructed in street right-of-way or in Interim Sidewalk Easement Areas, the Multi-Use Public Trail, and the Hillclimb Public Access Easement Area, the hours of public access are 24 hours each day of the year, except as provided in Subsection 7.D. below or in case of emergency, unless different hours are agreed to in writing by the City, as evidenced by a written and recorded amendment to this Agreement. (iii) For the Pocket Park Easement Areas, the hours of public access shall be the same hours as the neighborhood park to be constructed by the City on Block 1, as depicted on the Plat; provided, however, if a Pocket Park is constructed prior to the neighborhood park, then until the neighborhood park opens, the hours of public access are 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM each day of the year, except as provided in Subsection 7.D. below or in case of emergency, unless different hours are agreed to in writing by the City, as evidenced by a written and recorded amendment to this Agreement. Even when closed to public access, SHA, its successors and assigns, may not gate or otherwise physically close off all or any portion of the Publicly Accessible Areas. As described in Section 14, Grantor shall provide signage identifying the Publicly Accessible Areas as public space and identifying their hours of public use. C. Activities in Publicly Accessible Areas. (i) The public may engage in all activities allowed on a public sidewalk, except that SHA, its successors and assigns, may exclude or restrict activities (except on Interim Sidewalks within the public right-of-way) that would require a street use permit if conducted on a public sidewalk. The public may engage in free speech activities, including hand billing, signature gathering, and holding signs, so long as such activities do not obstruct access to or through the Publicly Accessible Areas, or to adjacent buildings or property. SHA, its successors and assigns, may not ask members of the public who are engaging in allowed activities to leave Publicly Accessible Areas, unless their conduct unreasonably interferes with the enjoyment of the space by others. SHA, its successors or assigns, may participate in the Seattle Police Department's Criminal Trespassing Program (SMC 12A.08.040) to restrict access to Publicly Accessible Areas for reasons of public safety. (ii) Seating reserved for customers of restaurants or other commercial uses is prohibited in Pocket Parks. D. Temporary Closures. The Association may reasonably and temporarily limit public access to Publicly Accessible Areas in order to carry out its maintenance obligations. E. Motorized Vehicles. Motorized vehicles and equipment are not permitted on Publicly Accessible Areas, except (i) motorized wheelchairs or similar equipment to permit access by disabled users, (ii) emergency or maintenance vehicles, (iii) to the extent necessary in connection with permitted development of Easement 6.5 as it intersects with Easement 6.4, and (iv) to the extent necessary for permitted development requiring limited vehicle crossings over the Public Access Pathways in Easements 5.2 and 7.1. 8. Grantor Use of Publicly Accessible Areas. A. With respect to Interim Pathway Easement Areas, Interim Sidewalk Easement Areas, the Easement Areas, and the Hillclimb Public Access Easement Area, SHA agrees for itself, its successors and assigns, that new easements may not be granted and construction of any kind is prohibited within these Publicly Accessible Areas unless (a) the easement or construction are consistent with, and do not preclude, construction of the Interim Pathways, Interim Sidewalks, Public Access Pathways, the Multi-Use Public Trail, and the portion of the 10th Avenue Hillclimb within Easement 6.8; (b) the Development proposal includes construction required in connection with such Development pursuant to the Covenant for Infrastructure Construction; (c) the Development is consistent with the provisions of the Planned Action Ordinance (Ordinance 123962), Land Use Code (Title 23 of the Seattle Municipal Code, as amended), and Yesler Terrace Design Guidelines, adopted by Ordinance 123963; and (d) the Development does not include any gross floor area of a structure, nor any motorized vehicle access in the particular easement area, except as provided in Subsection 7.E. above. For purposes of this Section 8, "construction" does not include installation of City public utilities in Public Utility Easements (as defined in the Covenant for Infrastructure Construction and granted and depicted on the Plat). B. With respect to the Pocket Park Easement Areas, SHA agrees for itself, its successors and assigns that new easements may not be granted and surface and above-grade development of any kind is prohibited except the Pocket Park. Any development beneath the grade level of a Pocket Park Easement Area shall be designed so as not to preclude landscaping at grade level as shown in the plans approved by the Seattle Department of Transportation ("SDOT"), and no elements of below-grade construction are allowed on or above the surface of the Pocket Park, including without limitation, vents or other structures or equipment accessory to below-grade parking. 9. City Access to Publicly Accessible Areas. SHA agrees for itself, its successors and assigns that the City, its agents, employees and contractors are granted continuing access to all Publicly Accessible Areas at all times for inspection and enforcement related to this Agreement and other covenants and agreements recorded in connection with the Plat, and for emergencies. 10. Design Process and Improvements for Pocket Parks. A. The design and programming for the Pocket Parks shall be reviewed by the Design Commission at both the schematic and design development phases and shall require final approval by SDOT. B. Each Pocket Park must be designed and programmed to be inviting to and usable by the general public and must not be designed to serve only residents in the immediate vicinity. Particular design elements may vary among the Pocket Parks in order that each Pocket Park is designed to complement adjacent uses; for example, programming of the Pocket Park in Block 7 may vary from the other Pocket Parks in recognition of nearby nonresidential development, should such occur. Pocket Parks must be designed, and distinguished from adjacent private development, so that they are clearly delineated as public space and not perceived as private or semiprivate open space. Without limitation, that includes conformance with the prohibition on customer use of Pocket Parks as described in Subsection 7.C.(ii) above. C. Programming and design guidance must consider the following elements for inclusion in each Pocket Park: (i) Lawn area: flexible space for picnics, informal play, gathering. Locate adjacent to plaza for combined gathering. (ii) Plaza: flexible space for multiple users, for seating, gathering, overlooks, watching children's play. Use as a gateway to the site, can be open to sidewalk to create greater sense of space. (iii) Plantings: Use to create edges, borders, and buffers from adjacent uses. Consider visibility into and from site for security and user interest. (iv) Play opportunities: Considering available space and adjacent uses, prioritize for young children who will not as easily venture as far from home as older children. Manufactured play equipment is not mandatory, simpler play opportunities may suffice. (v) Circulation: Include sufficient seating opportunities. Consider looping routes for children with wheeled toys, walking for exercise. (vi) Exercise stations may be included in some or all of the Pocket Parks. (vii) Include pedestrian-level lighting, and for those Pocket Parks bounded in part by a private access drive, bollards or another form of separation between the roadway surface and the park space. D. Improvements within the Pocket Parks shall conform to the requirements of Section 8.B. E. The boundaries of the Pocket Parks and their associated Pocket Park Easement Areas, as depicted on the Plat, may be revised through approval of a Lot Boundary Adjustment by the Department of Planning and Development (or functional successor), with the prior written approval of the Director of Transportation (or functional successor), provided that the general location, size, and lineal street frontage requirements for the Pocket Parks in the Preliminary Street Vacation Approval continue to be met, and subject to approval of a City Council ordinance authorizing the revised Pocket Park Easement Area. 11. Public Benefit Elements Within Public Right-of-Way and Wayfinding Kiosks. The Public Benefit Elements listed in Subsections 11.A., B., C., E. and F. will be constructed within public right-ofway, as authorized by the Street Improvement Permit ("SIP") process, as described in the Right-of-Way Manual and Client Assistance Memos, and street use permits required under Title 15 of the Seattle Municipal Code, all as amended from time to time. The Public Benefit Elements listed in Subsection 11.D. (wayfinding kiosks) will be constructed outside of the public right-of-way. A. Green Street Loop.

Green Street Treatment means the Green Street Loop amenities, including widened sidewalks, pedestrian-scale lighting, street trees and additional landscaping, street furniture, and no fewer than five exercise stations, and may include special paving, painted pavement, and signs. The SDOT-approved SIP plans constitute the required Green Street Treatment for the Green Street Loop. B. 10th Avenue Hillclimb. The 10th Avenue Hillclimb consists of: a series of stairways, ramps, and landings; retaining walls; pedestrian amenities including benches and artwork; landscaping; lighting; special paving; and a public plaza at the top. The 10th Avenue Hillclimb lies within: the existing rights of way of 10 th Avenue S. and S. Main Street; additional land dedicated by SHA to widen the right of way of 10 th Avenue S.; and a public access easement on SHA property designated as Easement 6.8 on the Plat. The 10th Avenue Hillclimb commences at the northern end of the currently developed 10 th Avenue S., approximately 130 feet north of the north margin of S. Jackson Street, and ends at the intersection of S. Main Street and the new extension of 10 th Avenue S. (i) The design for the 10th Avenue Hillclimb has been reviewed and approved by the Design Commission on April 4, 2013 and September 19, 2013. (ii) The final design, configuration and placement of the 10 th Avenue Hillclimb will be determined by SDOT as part of the SIP process.

D. Wayfinding Kiosks. No fewer than four wayfinding kiosks shall be located within the Property. The location and design of the kiosks are subject to review by the Design Commission and approval by SDOT through the SIP process. E. Wider Rights-of-Way than Typical City Requirements. The wider rights-of-way identified in the Preliminary Street Vacation Approval are depicted and dedicated, as applicable, on the Plat. F. Curb Bulbs at Intersections and Mid-Block. Subject to SDOT review and approval during the SIP process, street designs will include curb bulbs to accommodate trees larger than minimum City requirements and to enhance the pedestrian environment. 12.

SHA shall, at its sole cost and expense, maintain in full force and effect the following minimum limits of insurance throughout the entire term of this Agreement: A. Commercial General Liability (CGL) written on an occurrence form at least as broad as ISO CG 00 01, with Minimum Limits of Liability: $1,000,000 per Occurrence $2,000,000 General Aggregate $2,000,000 Products/Completed Operations Aggregate $1,000,000 Personal/Advertising Injury Liability Coverage shall include: Premises and Operations; Liability assumed under an Insured Contract (including tort liability of another assumed in a business contract); Personal Injury and Advertising Liability; Independent Contractors; Severability of Interest Clause; Waiver of Subrogation endorsement in favor of Owner as required by contract; General Aggregate Limits of Insurance shall apply separately; "Claims Made" and "Modified Occurrence" policy forms are not acceptable. The limits of liability described above are minimum limits of liability only. Regardless of provisions to the contrary under the terms of any insurance policy maintained by SHA, the specification of any such minimum limits shall neither be (1) intended to establish a maximum limit of liability to be maintained by SHA as respects this Agreement, nor (2) construed as limiting the liability of any of SHA's insurers, which must continue to be governed by the stated limits of liability of the relevant insurance policies. B. Umbrella or Excess Liability insurance if and as necessary to maintain total CGL and Automobile Liability insurance limits of $2,000,000 Each Occurrence and be no less broad than coverages described above. General Requirements for SHA's Insurance . City shall have the right to periodically review and revise insurance coverages and/or limits of liability as necessary to reflect changes in exposure to risk, inflation, industry conditions or other relevant circumstances upon ninety days prior written notice. The insurance shall include "The City of Seattle, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers" as additional insureds. SHA's insurance shall be primary and noncontributory to any insurance maintained by or available to the City. SHA and its insurers expressly acknowledge that (a) coverages and limits of liability requirements herein are strictly intended to specify minimum levels of coverage and limits of liability, and (b) where the City is to be included as an additional insured, such additional insured status shall, notwithstanding any insurance policy language to the contrary, extend to the total limits of all insurance and/or selfinsurance limits of liability maintained by SHA, whether such limits are primary, excess, contingent or otherwise. Coverage shall not be cancelled without forty-five (45) day written notice of such cancellation, except ten (10) day written notice as respects cancellation for non-payment of premium, to the City at its notice address except as may otherwise be specified in Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 48.18.290 (Cancellation by insurer). The City and SHA mutually agree that for the purpose of RCW 48.18.290(1)(e), for both liability and property insurance, the City is deemed to be a "mortgagee, pledge, or other person shown by (the required insurance policies) to have an interest in any loss which may occur thereunder." Each insurance policy required hereunder shall be (1) subject to reasonable approval by City that it conforms with the requirements of this Section, and (2) be issued by an insurer rated A--:VII or higher in the then-current A. M. Best's Key Rating Guide and licensed to do business in the State of Washington unless procured under the provisions of chapter 48.15 RCW (Unauthorized insurers). Any deductible or self-insured retention ("S.I.R.") must be disclosed to, and shall be subject to reasonable approval by, the City. SHA shall cooperate to provide such information as the City may reasonably deem to be necessary to assess the risk bearing capacity of SHA to sustain such deductible or S.I.R. The cost of any claim falling within a deductible or S.I.R. shall be the responsibility of SHA. If a deductible or S.I.R. for CGL or equivalent insurance is not "fronted" by an insurer but is funded and/or administered by SHA or a contracted third party claims administrator, SHA agrees to defend and indemnify the City to the same extent as the City would be protected as an additional insured for primary and non-contributory limits of liability as required herein by an insurer. Evidence of Insurance . On or before the Effective Date, and thereafter not later than the last business day prior to the expiration date of each such policy, the following documents must be delivered to City at its notice address as evidence of the insurance coverage required to be maintained by SHA: Certification of insurance documenting compliance with the coverage, minimum limits and general requirements specified herein; and A copy of the policy's declarations pages, showing the insuring company, policy effective dates, limits of liability and the Schedule of Forms and Endorsements specifying all endorsements listed on the policy including any company-specific or manuscript endorsements; A copy of the CGL insurance policy provision(s) documenting the City of Seattle and its officers, elected officials, employees, agents and volunteers as additional insureds (whether on ISO Form CG 20 26 or an equivalent additional insured or blanket additional insured policy wording), showing the policy number, and the original signature and printed name of the representative of the insurance company authorized to sign such endorsement; Pending receipt of the documentation specified in this Section 17, SHA may provide a copy of a current complete binder. An ACORD certificate of insurance will not be accepted in lieu thereof. Original certification of insurance shall be issued to the City as described in Section 17. Operator's Responsibility : The procuring of the policies of insurance required by this Agreement shall not be construed to limit SHA's liability hereunder. 18. Release and Indemnity. SHA and the Association (each, an "Indemnitor"), each for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby covenant and agree to forever release, defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the City, its officials, officers, employees, and agents, from any and all costs, claims, demands, causes of action, judgments, damages, expenses, or liabilities, including reasonable attorneys' fees and necessary litigation expenses, resulting from any actual or alleged bodily injury (including death) or actual or alleged damage to property arising out of, in connection with, or that are related to the performance of the respective acts or omissions of such Indemnitor or any parties for which such Indemnitor is legally liable with respect to the Publicly Accessible Areas, to the extent permitted by RCW 4.24.115. Solely to give full force and effect to the indemnity obligations contained herein and for the benefit of the City only, each Indemnitor, for itself, its successors and assigns, specifically and expressly waives any immunity it may have under the Washington State Industrial Insurance Act, Title 51 RCW or any other industrial insurance, workers' compensation or similar laws and acknowledges that this waiver was mutually negotiated by the parties as part of the consideration for this Agreement. This provision shall not be interpreted or construed as a waiver of each Indemnitor's right to assert such immunity, defense or protection directly against any of its own employees. In no event shall an Indemnitor's, or its successors' or assigns', indemnification obligations under this Agreement be limited to the extent of any insurance available to or provided by such Indemnitor, its successors or assigns. The indemnification obligations under this Agreement do not apply to any liabilities, claims, causes of action, judgments or expenses resulting from bodily injury or property damage caused by the sole negligence or intentional acts of the public or the City its officers, employees, elected officials, agents or subcontractors. 19.

RECITALS A. In connection with redevelopment of Yesler Terrace, SHA submitted a preliminary plat application to subdivide SHA's Yesler Terrace property (the "Plat"). The preliminary plat application was approved by the Hearing Examiner on August 30, 2013 under Hearing Examiner file no. MUP-13-016(SD) (the "Preliminary Plat Approval"). The preliminary plat incorporates the street layout concept given approval by the City Council in Clerk File (CF) 311389. In connection with the proposed final plat, the City Council will be asked to accept dedication of certain public right-of-way areas within Yesler Terrace. The Preliminary Plat Approval requires SHA to enter into this Agreement as a condition to final plat approval. B. Yesler Terrace will be redeveloped in phases. This phased development allows the existing low income housing units to remain in place for a period of time within unimproved public right-of-way that has been dedicated as part of the final plat, but not yet physically improved as streets and sidewalks, in furtherance of the provisions of the Cooperative Agreement between the City and SHA, authorized by Ordinance 123961. C. The City and SHA wish to allow this phased redevelopment, and the temporary location of structures within dedicated but not-yet-improved right-of-way areas, so long as the City has no responsibility or liability for those structures or the relocation of tenants living within them, and so long as SHA is obligated to remove those structures within a defined period of time. D. RCW Chapter 35.83 authorizes agreements between cities and public housing authorities related to housing developments. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 1. The following definitions apply for purposes of this Agreement: "ACC" means the annual operating subsidy provided to SHA by the Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") under Section 9 of the U.S. Housing Act. "Dedicated Street Areas" means the areas dedicated to the City as right-of-way in connection with Final Plat Approval. "Final Plat Approval" means approval, by ordinance, of the final plat of the area that was the subject of the Preliminary Plat Approval. "Public Housing" means housing the operation of which is subsidized by an ACC, available to persons eligible under Section 3 of the U.S. Housing Act. "Removal Date for a Structure" means the latter of: the date all dwelling units in the Structure cease to be occupied as Public Housing; the date HUD issues written approval to demolish the Structure (if such approval is required); or the date the City of Seattle issues a permit to demolish the Structure. "Structure" means a building located within the Dedicated Street Areas as of the effective date of this Agreement and all appurtenances that are or have ever been related to the operation of the building, including but not limited to foundations, utilities, impervious surfaces, and other infrastructure. "U.S. Housing Act" means the United States Housing Act of 1937, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 1437 et seq, as it may be amended in the future. 2. No later than 30 days after the date all dwelling units in a Structure cease to be occupied as Public Housing, SHA shall apply to HUD for approval to demolish the Structure (if such approval is required) and shall apply to the City for all applicable permits related to the demolition of the Structure. 3. The City grants permission for each of the Structures to remain in place until the earlier of: (1) eighteen months after the Removal Date for a Structure; or (2) 20 years after the effective date of this Agreement. SHA at its sole expense shall remove each of the Structures prior to the earlier of: (1) eighteen months after the Removal Date for a Structure; or (2) 20 years after the effective date of this Agreement. Removal of a Structure shall include: (1) removal of the Structure; (2) clean up of any environmental contamination that has resulted from the Structure, or its operation, in accordance with and to the standard required by all applicable federal, state, and local environmental regulations; (3) grading of all disturbed area to match adjacent grades; and (4) installation of temporary restoration as required by the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) that includes but is not limited to temporary erosion and sedimentation control for Dedicated Street Areas and temporary erosion and sedimentation control as per Seattle Department of Planning and Development (DPD) requirements for affected areas of private property. At the May 20, 2013 Board meeting, the SHA Board of Commissioners allocated, through Resolution #5035, $3,000,000 in dedicated cash reserves to pay for infrastructure improvements associated with Yesler Terrace redevelopment. The cost to remove Structures from the Dedicated Street Areas is included in this reserve amount; provided that the amount in the reserve account does not limit the amount or extent of SHA's obligation to remove, at its sole expense, each of the Structures. The portion of the dedicated cash reserves that SHA's Financial Policy Oversight Committee has identified as being allocated towards the cost of removal of the Structures shall not be used for an alternative purpose unless the Financial Policy Oversight Committee, in consultation with SDOT, determines the removal commitment has been met, including the full scope of removal activities. 4. The City shall have no responsibility to maintain, repair, abate, or remove any of the Structures. SHA shall maintain sole responsibility to maintain, repair, abate, or remove the Structures. 5. The City shall have no responsibility to provide any relocation or other assistance to the residents in Structures. SHA shall maintain sole responsibility for relocation and related rights of such residents, as required by applicable law and consistent with the City-SHA Cooperative Agreement authorized by Ordinance 123961. 6. SHA shall maintain Dedicated Street Areas until such time as all infrastructure facilities and improvements required to be constructed within a given portion of the Dedicated Street Areas by the Preliminary Plat Approval have been constructed and the City has inspected and accepted them. Where SHA has removed Structures from Dedicated Street Areas but the required infrastructure facilities and improvements have not yet been constructed, maintenance by SHA shall include maintenance of temporary restoration installed pursuant to Section 3 above. 7. SHA releases the City, its officials, officers, employees, and agents from any and all claims, actions, suits, liability, loss, costs, expense, attorneys' fees, or damages of every kind and description arising out of or by reason of the presence of Structures within, or the use or occupation of, those portions of the Dedicated Street Areas where the infrastructure facilities and improvements required to be constructed by the Preliminary Plat Approval have not been accepted by the City, including but not limited to claims resulting from injury, damage, or loss to SHA or SHA's property. SHA agrees to at all times defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the City, its officials, officers, employees, and agents from and against all claims, actions, suits, liability, loss, costs, expense, attorneys' fees, or damages of every kind and description, excepting only damages that may result from the sole negligence of the City, that may accrue to, be asserted by, or be suffered by any person or property including, without limitation, damage, death or injury to members of the public or to SHA's officers, agents, employees, contractors, invitees, tenants, tenants' invitees, licensees, or successors and assigns, arising out of or by reason of: (a) the existence, condition, construction, reconstruction, modification, maintenance, operation, use, or removal of any Structure within those portions of the Dedicated Street Areas where the infrastructure facilities and improvements required to be constructed by the Preliminary Plat Approval have not been accepted by the City; (b) the use, occupation, or restoration by any person or entity of those portions of the Dedicated Street Areas where the infrastructure facilities and improvements required to be constructed by the Preliminary Plat Approval have not been accepted by the City; (c) anything that has been done or may at any time be done by SHA in carrying out its obligations under this Agreement; or (d) SHA failing or refusing to strictly comply with every provision of this Agreement. If any suit, action, or claim of the nature described above is filed, instituted, or begun against the City, SHA shall upon notice from the City defend the City, with counsel acceptable to the City, at the sole cost and expense of SHA, and if a judgment is rendered against the City in any suit or action, SHA shall fully satisfy the judgment within 90 days after the action or suit has been finally determined, if determined adversely to the City. If it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that Revised Code of Washington ("RCW") 4.24.115 applies to this Agreement, then in the event claims or damages are caused by or result from the concurrent negligence of the City, its agents, contractors, or employees, and SHA, its agents, contractors, or employees, this indemnity provision shall be valid and enforceable only to the extent of the negligence of SHA or SHA's agents, contractors, or employees. 8. Until the infrastructure facilities and improvements required to be constructed by the Preliminary Plat Approval within all portions of the Dedicated Street Areas have been accepted by the City, SHA shall obtain and maintain in full force and effect, at its own expense, insurance and/or selfinsurance that protects SHA and the City from claims and risks of loss from perils that can be insured against under commercial general liability ("CGL") insurance policies in conjunction with: (a) the existence, condition, construction, reconstruction, modification, maintenance, operation, use, or removal of any Structure within those portions of the Dedicated Street Areas where the infrastructure facilities and improvements required to be constructed by the Preliminary Plat Approval have not been accepted by the City; (b) the use, occupation, or restoration by any person or entity of those portions of the Dedicated Street Areas where the infrastructure facilities and improvements required to be constructed by the Preliminary Plat Approval have not been accepted by the City; and (c) claims and risks in connection with activities performed by SHA in connection with this Agreement. Minimum insurance requirements are CGL insurance written on an occurrence form at least as broad as the Insurance Services Office ("ISO") CG 00 01. The City requires insurance coverage to be placed with an insurer admitted and licensed to conduct business in Washington State or with a surplus lines carrier pursuant to RCW Chapter 48.15. If coverage is placed with any other insurer or is partially or wholly self-insured, such insurer(s) or self-insurance is subject to approval by the City's Risk Manager. Minimum limits of liability shall be $10,000,000 per Occurrence; $10,000,000 General Aggregate; $10,000,000 Products/Completed Operations Aggregate, including Premises Operation; Personal/Advertising Injury; Contractual Liability. Coverage shall include the "City of Seattle, its officers, officials, employees and agents" as additional insureds for primary and non-contributory limits of liability subject to a Separation of Insureds clause. Within 60 days after the effective date of this Agreement, SHA shall provide to the City, or cause to be provided, certification of insurance coverage including an actual copy of the blanket or designated additional insured policy provision per the ISO CG 20 12 endorsement or equivalent. The insurance coverage certification shall be delivered or sent to the Director of SDOT or to such address as the Director may specify in writing from time to time. SHA shall provide a certified complete copy of the insurance policy to the City promptly upon request. 9. GENERAL PROVISIONS 9.1 Amendment . No modification to or amendment of this Agreement shall be effective unless a written amendment, approved by the City Council by ordinance, is executed by the authorized representatives of SHA and the City. 9.2 Choice of Law .
