that may be carried out by the Commissioner of Works & Emergency Services, or any inspector or inspection firm

responsible for all and any work done or required to be done in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
including the repair or replacement of any defective work or material, at the Developer's sole cost and expense. In

necessity of a separate letter of credit for this sum at the time the letter of credit is provided as set out in Schedule
"G" solely on the understanding that the said sum of $50,000.00 shall be covered within said letter of credit at such

not be reduced in this amount upon completion of the first $50,000.00 of work or services). The letter of credit shall

for each of the Lots in the Plan.

Section 12: Financial Requirements
12.00 Prior to the commencement of construction of any of the Works and Services (including any grading), the
Developer shall provide the City with an amount payable in cash or by certified cheque being not less than 100% of
the total cost as determined by Schedule "G" attached hereto, which shall be held by the City as security for the
obligations of the Developer pursuant to any of the provisions of this agreement. If in the opinion of the City at any
time and from time to time, such amounts are insufficient, such amounts may be increased, and the Developer shall
pay such additional sum as may be required as a result of such increase. In determining the sufficiency of the
amount, regard need not be placed solely to the particulars outlined in Schedule "G" attached hereto, but the total
cost of satisfying all of the obligations of the Developer pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement. The
City may accept an irrevocable letter of credit drawn on a chartered bank of Canada acceptable to the City in lieu
of such total cash amounts referred to in Schedule "G" attached hereto and such additional amounts as determined
by the City, provided such letter of credit shall be in a form acceptable to the City Solicitor and Treasurer and
contain the following provisions:
(a) the letter of credit shall be security for any obligations of the Developer pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement, without any limitations whatsoever;
(b) drawings on the letter of credit shall be permitted upon presentation of a letter from the City to the bank
claiming default by the Developer under the terms of this Agreement, and such default shall not be limited to the
actions of the Developer;
(c) partial drawings shall be permitted;
(d) if the City has not determined the extent of the default or the amount required to rectify the default or
compensate the City or third parties as a result thereof, the City may draw on the full amount of the Letter of
Credit without any requirement to justify the amount of the draw;
(e) if the letter of credit is not renewed at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of expiry by an irrevocable letter of
renewal or replacement letter of credit in such form and on such terms acceptable to the City Solicitor and
Treasurer, the City may be permitted to draw on up to 100% of the letter of credit on or before the date of expiry.
12.01 All reductions on the letter of credit shall be in the sole discretion of the City and the City shall not be
obligated to reduce the letter of credit by any amounts based on actual work performed by the Developer.
12.02 In the event the Developer fails to provide sufficient cash or a letter of credit as required pursuant to the
provisions of this Agreement, such failure shall be deemed to be a substantial default pursuant to provisions of this
Agreement and such default shall enable the City to realize on all or a part of the Lands secured by this Agreement
in the same manner as if the City was enforcing its rights as a mortgagee against such lands.
12.03 Prior to the registration of the Plan (or at any time set out in Schedule "H", whichever is later), the Developer
shall pay to the City in cash or by certified cheque the total amount of such levies, fees, deposits, assessments and
charges more particularly set out in Schedule "H" attached hereto. In the event any of the fees and charges are
estimated, the City shall account to the Developer for such fees and charges when they are actually incurred, and if
additional monies are required with respect to such fees and charges, the Developer shall pay such fees and charges
forthwith to the City.
Section 13: Conveyances and Easements
13.00 The Developer hereby agrees to convey or cause to be conveyed those lands and premises more particularly
set out in Schedule "I" attached hereto to such grantees as the City may direct and in such form and manner
acceptable to the City Solicitor. If the conveyance is to be made in fee simple, such conveyance shall be for good and
marketable title to the lands to be conveyed, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances. If the conveyance is by
way of easement, the form of the conveyance shall be acceptable to the City Solicitor, and the grantee shall acquire
good and marketable title to the easement free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, or in the alternative, any
encumbrancer affecting the lands being subject matter of the easement shall postpone and subordinate its interest
in favour of the grantee on such terms and in such form approved by the City Solicitor. All conveyances, whether in
fee simple or for easements, shall be made at the Developer's expense, and the Developer shall reimburse the City
for any and all costs and expenses incurred by the City, whether directly or indirectly for the aforesaid.
13.01 In addition to the conveyances and easements described in Schedule "I" attached hereto, if in the opinion of
the City additional easements or conveyances are required in connection with or to facilitate the Services, then upon
request, the Developer shall convey or cause to be conveyed such additional lands or easements on the same terms
and conditions as if the same had been included in Schedule "I" attached hereto, provided such request for any
additional land or easement required to be conveyed to the City shall not include any of the Lands covered by any
Structure, and provided further, any request for a conveyance of any part of the Lands in fee simple shall be limited
to the obligation of the Developer hereunder and shall not be binding on any Purchaser of any Lot on which a
dwelling has been erected.
13.02 The Developer hereby agrees that the Developer shall obtain from any purchaser of the Lands, or any part
thereof, or of any Lot, a covenant to grant on any Part of the Lands not covered by any Structure such additional
easements required for utility or drainage purposes by the City as the City may in writing advise. Notwithstanding
the aforesaid, registration of this Agreement on title to the Lands shall be deemed to be binding on all successors in
the title to the Developer.
13.03 The Developer hereby agrees that in any agreement for the sale, conveyance, or other disposition of any Lot
or any part of the Lands to another person or corporation, the Developer shall obtain from such person or
corporation a covenant for a right of entry for a period of twenty (20) years from the date of such conveyance for
drainage and grading purposes. Notwithstanding the aforesaid, registration of this Agreement on title to the Lands
shall be deemed to have the effect of such reservation and shall be binding on all successors in title to the Developer.
13.04 All conveyances referred to in this section shall be at the expense of the Developer and the Developer shall
provide all reference plans requested by the City Solicitor in connection with such conveyances.
13.05 The Developer shall not use any of the lands or easements conveyed pursuant to this Agreement or any other
lands owned by the City or by any governmental agency or body or by any utility, or subject to any easement in
favour of the City or any governmental agency or body or any utility, for the depositing of any debris or storage of
earth or material in connection with the development of the Lands or otherwise, and the Developer shall be
responsible for preventing and removing the same from the Lands or other lands as aforesaid caused by third
parties, at the Developer's expense. If necessary, the Developer shall, at the direction of the Commissioner of Works
& Emergency Services, erect signs, temporary barriers and fencing to prevent the same.
Section 14: Insurance
14.00 Prior to the registration of the Plan, the Developer shall maintain insurance, and continue to maintain such
insurance until final acceptance, against all damages or claims for damage with an insurance company satisfactory
to the City. Such policy or policies shall include the City as a named insured and a certified copy of such insurance
policy shall be delivered to the City and be in full force and effect until a Certificate of Completion has been issued
by the Commissioner of Works & Emergency Services for all Services required pursuant to this Agreement and
final acceptance by the City of such Services. Such policy of insurance shall be in a form acceptable to the City
Solicitor and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall provide:
(a) that the minimum limits shall be not less than $2,000,000.00 for any single occurrence;
(b) that it shall not contain an exclusion for blasting;
(c) that the insurance premium has been prepaid for a period of not less than one year;
(d) that the policy will provide that it is not cancellable unless prior notice by registered mail has been received by
the City from the insurer not less than thirty (30) days prior to the cancellation date;
(e) the policy shall not contain a deductible clause, provided however, if the policy does contain a deductible clause,
the same shall be approved by the City, and the Developer shall provide an additional cash deposit payable to the
City in an amount to be determined by the City. In the event of claims made against the City to which the deductible
applies, the City shall appoint an independent adjuster to investigate such claim, and the finding of the independent
adjuster shall authorize the City to pay such claims deemed valid by such adjuster out of the additional cash deposit
posted with the City. In the event such additional cash deposits are deemed to be insufficient by the City at any time
and from time to time, the Developer hereby agrees to pay such additional cash deposits forthwith to the City. All
costs of the adjuster shall be borne by the Developer.
Section 15: Liens Upon the Lands
15.00 The Developer and Mortgagees hereby consent to the registration of this Agreement upon the Lands and
hereby acknowledge that the same constitutes a first lien upon the Lands (not subject to any other liens or
encumbrances) as security for any obligation of the Developer pursuant to this Agreement, in priority to any
interest of the said Developer and Mortgagees. The said lien shall be enforceable upon a judgment or order of any
court and all or any part of the Lands may be realized as security for such lien in the same manner as if the City
was enforcing its rights as a mortgagee under a mortgage.
15.01 The Mortgagees agree that in the event of their obtaining or transferring the equity of redemption in the
Lands under their mortgage, the title thereto shall be subject to the terms hereof in the same manner as if they had
executed this Agreement as Developer.
Section 16: Default
16.00 Any default by the Developer, or by its agents, servants, heirs, executors, administrators, successors or assigns
of any provision of this Agreement shall permit the City to enforce its rights pursuant to this Agreement by taking
any of the following actions, or any combinations thereof:
(a) issue a stop work order, whereupon the Developer shall cease and desist from any and all work upon the Lands
or any part thereof, notwithstanding the conveyance of all or part of the Lands to a successor in title;
(b) draw on any letter of credit held as security by the City pursuant to this Agreement, whether for payment in full
or in part;
(c) any cash or deposits held by the City pursuant to this Agreement or any proceeds obtained from the presentation
of any letter of credit, whether received from the Developer, the Builder, or any other person, firm or corporation,
may be applied on account of any expenses incurred, whether directly or indirectly, or damages suffered by the
City, as a result of any default as aforesaid or apply the same towards the cost of completing or performing any of
the obligations of the Developer pursuant to this Agreement, or on account of liquidated damages. For the purposes
of this paragraph "cost of completing or performing any of the obligations of the Developer pursuant to this
Agreement" includes all costs and expenses deemed necessary or appropriate by the City and without limiting the
generality of the foregoing may include:
(i) the appointment and employment of a manager;
(ii) the appointment and employment of a replacement for the Consulting Engineer;
(iii) other consultants;
(iv) administrative costs;
(v) interest;
(vi) legal expenses;
(vii) the reimbursement of third parties who have incurred a loss or have suffered damages as a result of the default
of the Developer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and
(viii) the payment of any and all costs or expenses incurred, whether directly or indirectly in connection with any of
the provisions of Section 16 hereof;
(d) perform or cause to be performed, at the Developer's expense, any and all of the obligations of the Developer
pursuant to this Agreement and for this purpose enter upon the Lands and do all work upon the Lands or upon any
lands affected by the conveyances or easements, or other lands as the City may decide;
(e) bring any proceeding in the nature of specific performance, injunction or other equitable remedy, it being
acknowledged by the Developer that damages at law may be an inadequate remedy for a default or threatened
default or breach of this Agreement;
(f) bring any action at law by or on behalf of the City or any other party as a result of any default under this
Agreement in order to recover damages;
(g) institute any other legal Proceedings to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement or compliance with any
Laws or to take any other action deemed appropriate in the sole opinion of the City.
16.01 Any action taken or remedy elected by the City, shall not be or construed to be mutually exclusive of any
other action not taken or remedy not elected by the City, nor shall the City be required to take any action or elect
any remedy, other than such action or remedy which the City in its sole discretion determines advisable, and the
City shall not be liable to any party to this Agreement or otherwise for failure to take any action or elect any
remedy. No consent or waiver, express or implied by the City to or of any breach or default hereunder shall be
deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default, and the City hereby expressly
reserves its rights to rescind or repeal any waiver, whether express or implied, with respect to any breach or
default, whereupon the City shall have all of its rights and remedies pursuant to this Agreement, notwithstanding its
previous consent or waiver. Failure on the part of the City to complain of any act or failure to act or to declare or
notify the Developer of any breach or default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a
consent or waiver of the City of its rights hereunder. Nothing herein shall give any third party the right to compel
the City to enforce any of its remedies pursuant to this Agreement or to hold the City or its agents accountable or
liable for any acts or omissions with respect to this Agreement.
Section 17: Performance Guarantees
17.00 The Developer hereby agrees that the Services shall be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner free of
any defect, notwithstanding such defect being as a result of faulty workmanship, material or design, so that such
Services shall operate for the purpose for which they were intended free of any defects for a period of not less than
two (2) years from the date upon which a Certificate of Completion for such Services has been issued, and during
such guarantee period, the Developer shall repair any defects that may be required in accordance with the
requirements of the Commissioner of Works & Emergency Services (hereinafter called the "Maintenance Period").
Provided however, nothing herein shall require the Commissioner of Works & Emergency Services to issue a
Certificate of Completion for any Services until all Services have been constructed, unless in the sole opinion of the
Commissioner of Works & Emergency Services, it is desirable to issue such Certificate of Completion for a part of
such Services.
17.01 Prior to the issuance of any Certificate of Completion for any Services, and when requested to do so by the
City, the Developer shall provide the City with a maintenance guarantee for such Services with respect to which the
Certificate of Completion is to be issued, as follows:
(a) an amount payable in cash or by certified cheque to the City being not less than 20% of the estimated cost of the
Services for which a Certificate of Completion is to be issued, such estimated costs to be determined by the
Commissioner of Works & Emergency Services, and such amount shall be held by the City as security for the
obligations of the Developer pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement. If in the opinion of the City, at any
time and from time to time, such amount is insufficient, such amount may be increased and the Developer shall pay
such additional sum as may be required as a result of such increase. Determining the sufficiency of the amount,
regard need not be placed solely on the estimated cost of the Services as aforesaid but the total cost of satisfying all
of the obligations of the Developer pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement. The City will accept an
irrevocable letter of credit drawn on a chartered bank of Canada acceptable to the City in lieu of such cash amounts
referred to above, provided such letter of credit, or increased letter of credit as the case may be, shall be in a form
acceptable to the City Solicitor and contain the following provisions:
(i) the letter of credit shall be security for any obligations of the Developer pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement, without any limitations whatsoever;
(ii) drawings on the letter of credit shall be permitted upon presentation of a letter from the City to the bank
claiming default by the Developer under the terms of this Agreement, and such default shall not be limited to the
actions of the Developer;
(iii) partial drawings shall be permitted;
(iv) if the City has not determined the extent of the default or the amount required to rectify the default or
compensate the City or third parties as a result thereof, the City may draw on the full amount of the letter of credit
without any requirement to justify the amount of the draw;
(v) if the letter of credit is not renewed at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of expiry by an irrevocable letter of
renewal or replacement letter of credit, in such form and on such terms acceptable to the City Solicitor and the
Treasurer, the City may be permitted to draw on up to 100% of the letter of credit on or before the date of expiry.
Section 18: Ownership
18.00 All the Services to be constructed on lands conveyed to the City or to such other government agency as herein
provided, whether by a conveyance in fee simple or by easement, shall upon construction thereof at any and from
time to time, vest wholly in the City, and the Developer shall have no claims or rights thereto, except as expressly
provided herein to the contrary, and the Developer hereby further waives any claim or right pursuant to the
Construction Lien Act in respect thereof or the Lands.

against the Developer or the Lands or any adjacent lands, if in the opinion of the City such charges for local
improvements should be commuted and prepaid.

Section 22: Variation in Registered Plan
22.00 If the registered Plan varies from the Plan on which this Agreement is based, and as a result of such
variations, certain changes are required to be made to this Agreement or the Schedules attached thereto or with
respect to the financial requirements of the Developer in connection therewith, it shall be sufficient for the City to
deliver to the Developer a letter indicating the amendments to this Agreement, whereupon such amendments shall
be deemed to be incorporated into this Agreement. The Developer hereby covenants and agrees to comply with the
terms and conditions of such amendments as if they had been incorporated into the original agreement, and the
encumbrancers hereby further acknowledge and agree that such amendments shall have the same effect as if they
had been originally incorporated into this Agreement to which they are a party.
22.01 Schedule "M" attached hereto is a certificate from an Ontario Land Surveyor as to the frontage and area of
all Lots and Blocks for the purpose of allowing the determination as to conformity with the zoning by-laws in effect
at the time of issuance of a building permit.
