insurable replacement value of the Office Building, but any such policy may have a deductible amount of

written notice to Developer and the City at least thirty (30) days before the cancellation or modification

policy conforming to the provisions of this Article V, or that there is no necessity therefor under the terms
hereof. In lieu of separate policies, Developer may maintain a single policy, or blanket or umbrella
policies, or a combination thereof, which provide the total coverage required herein, in which event
Developer shall deposit with the City a certificate or certificates of the respective insurers as to the amount
of coverage in force upon the Office Building.

14
Execution Version
a. Payment of Economic Development Grants. For and in consideration of the obligations
being assumed by Developer hereunder, and in furtherance of the goals and objectives the Urban Renewal
Plan for the Urban Renewal Area and the Urban Renewal Act, the City agrees, subject to the Developer
being and remaining in compliance with this Agreement at the time of each payment, and subject to the
terms and conditions of this Article VIII, to make up to eight (8) consecutive annual payments of
Economic Development Grants to the Developer under the following terms and conditions.
i. Schedule of Grants. Assuming completion of the Office Building in July 2024 and
first full assessment of the Office Building on January 1, 2025, timely certification of the Approved Costs
by Developer, and the City’s debt certification to the County Auditor prior to December 1, 2025, the
Economic Development Grants shall commence on June 1, 2027, and end on June 1, 2034, pursuant to
Section 403.19 of the Urban Renewal Act under the following formula and schedule:
June 1, 2027 80% of Tax Increments for Fiscal Year 26-27
June 1, 2028 80% of Tax Increments for Fiscal Year 27-28
June 1, 2029 80% of Tax Increments for Fiscal Year 28-29
June 1, 2030 80% of Tax Increments for Fiscal Year 29-30
June 1, 2031 80% of Tax Increments for Fiscal Year 30-31
June 1, 2032 80% of Tax Increments for Fiscal Year 31-32
June 1, 2033 80% of Tax Increments for Fiscal Year 32-33
June 1, 2034 80% of Tax Increments for Fiscal Year 33-34
ii. Maximum Amount of Grants. The aggregate amount of the Economic
Development Grants that may be paid to the Developer under Section 8.1(a) of this Agreement shall be
equal to the sum of the total amount of the applicable percentages of Tax Increments collected in respect
of the assessments imposed on the Development Property and Office Building, but in no event shall the
aggregate amount of the Economic Development Grants exceed the lesser of: (a) $1,668,467, or (b) the
aggregate amount of the Approved Costs submitted to and approved by the City (consistent with the terms
of Section 6.8). It is further agreed and understood that in no event shall Developer be entitled to receive
more than calculated under the formula set forth in this Section 8.1(a), even if the aggregate amount is
less than maximum amount stated herein or the amount of Approved Costs paid by the Developer.
iii. Limitations. City and Developer acknowledge that each Economic Development
Grant payment to be paid to Developer according to this Section 8.1(a) is wholly contingent upon the
actual Approved Costs paid by Developer, and payment shall come solely and only from incremental taxes
received by the City under Iowa Code Section 403.19 from levies upon the Development Property and
Office Building. The City makes no assurance that the Developer will receive Economic Development
Grants which equal the amount of the Approved Costs paid by Developer.
iv. Certification of Approved Costs. The obligation of the City to make any Economic
Development Grants to the Developer shall be subject to and conditioned upon, among other things, the
timely filing by the Developer of the Developer Certification required under Section 6.8 hereof and the
City’s approval thereof. Developer must submit accurate and sufficient do cumentation of the Approved
Costs to the City as part of its Developer Certification.
b. Calculation of Grants. Each annual payment shall be equal in amount to the incremental
property tax revenues attributable to Development Property that are received by the City from the Dallas
15
Execution Version
County Treasurer and that are equal to the above percentages of the Tax Increments collected by the City
with respect to the Development Property and Office Building under the terms of the Ordinance and
deposited into TIC Properties, LLC TIF Account (without regard to any averaging that may otherwise be
utilized under Section 403.19 and excluding any interest that may accrue thereon prior to payment to
Developer) during the preceding twelve-month period in respect of the Development Property, but subject
to limitation and adjustment as provided in this Article (such payments being referred to collectively as
the “Economic Development Grants”).
Section 8.2. Conditions Precedent. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.1 above, the
obligation of the City to make an Economic Development Grant in any year shall be subject to and
conditioned upon the following:
a. Developer’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement at the time of payment; and
b. Developer’s construction of the Minimum Improvements consistent with the terms of this
Agreement; and
c. Dedication of the Public Improvements and Public Improvements Development Property
to the City consistent with Section 3.4; and
d. Developer’s timely filing of the Annual Certifications, as set forth in Section 6.7; and
e. Developer’s timely filing of the Developer Certification as set forth in Sections 6.8 and
8.1(a)(iv).
Under no circumstances shall the failure by Developer to qualify for an Economic Development
Grant in any year serve to extend the term of this Agreement beyond the Termination Date or the years
during which Economic Development Grants may be awarded to Developer or the total amount thereof,
it being the intent of parties hereto to provide Developer with an opportunity to receive Economic
Development Grants only if Developer fully complies with the provisions hereof and the Developer
becomes entitled thereto, up to the maximum aggregate amounts set forth in Section 8.1(a)(ii).
After the Office Building is first fully assessed and if in compliance with this Agreement, if the
Developer’s Annual Certification is timely filed under Section 6.7 and the Developer Certification is
timely filed under Section 6.8, the City shall certify to Dallas County, Iowa (the “County”) prior to
December 1 of that year its request for the available Tax Increments resulting from the assessments
imposed by the County as of January 1 of that year, to be collected by the County and paid to the City as
taxes are paid during the following fiscal year and a percentage of which shall thereafter be disbursed to
Developer on the following June 1 provided Developer is in compliance with this Agreement at the time
of payment. (Example: Assuming completion of the Office Building in 2024 and first full assessment on
January 1, 2025, if Developer timely certifies the amount of Approved Costs, and the City certifies to the
County by December 1, 2025, the first Economic Development Grant would be paid to Developer on June
1, 2027 (for 80% of the Tax Increment for Fiscal Year 2026-2027)). Compliance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement at the time of payment is a condition precedent to receiving an Economic
Development Grant.
Section 8.3. Source of Grant Funds Limited.
16
Execution Version
a. The Economic Development Grants shall be payable from and secured solely and only by
amounts of incremental property tax revenues attributable to the Development Property and Office
Building that are received by the City from the Dallas County Treasurer and that are deposited and held
in TIC Properties, LLC TIF Account of the Waukee Consolidated Urban Renewal Tax Increment Revenue
Fund of the City. The City hereby covenants and agrees to maintain the Ordinance covering the
Development Property in force during the term hereof and to apply the appropriate percentage of Tax
Increments collected in respect of the Development Property and Office Building, and allocated to TIC
Properties, LLC TIF Account, to pay the Economic Development Grants, as and to the extent set forth in
this Article. The Economic Development Grants shall not be payable in any manner by other tax
increment revenues or by general taxation or from any other City funds. Any commercial and industrial
property tax replacement monies that may be received under Chapter 441.21A of the Code shall not be
included in the calculation to determine the amount of Economic Development Grants for which
Developer is eligible, and any monies received back under Chapter 426C of the Code relating to the
Business Property Tax Credit shall not be included in the calculation to determine the amount of Economic
Development Grants for which Developer is eligible.
b. Each Economic Development Grant is subject to annual appropriation by the City Council
of the City. The right of non-appropriation reserved to the City in this Section is intended by the parties,
and shall be construed at all times, so as to ensure that the City’s obligation to make future Economic
Development Grants shall not constitute a legal indebtedness of the City within the meaning of any
applicable constitutional or statutory debt limitation prior to the adoption of a budget which appropriates
funds for the payment of that installment or amount. In the event that any of the provisions of this
Agreement are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to create, or result in the creation of, such
a legal indebtedness of the City, the enforcement of the said provision shall be suspended, and the
Agreement shall at all times be construed and applied in such a manner as will preserve the foregoing
intent of the parties, and no Event of Default by the City shall be deemed to hav e occurred as a result
thereof. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any circumstance is so suspended,
the suspension shall not affect other provisions of this Agreement which can be given effect without the
suspended provision. To this end the provisions of this Agreement are severable.
c. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.1 hereof, the City shall have no obligation to
make an Economic Development Grant to Developer if at any time during the term hereof the City fails
to appropriate funds for payment; the City receives an opinion from its legal counsel to the effect that the
use of Tax Increments resulting from the Office Building to fund an Economic Development Grant to
Developer, as contemplated under said Section 8.1, is not authorized or is not an otherwise appropriate
urban renewal activity permitted to be undertaken by the City under the Urban Renewal Act or other
applicable provisions of the Code, as then constituted or under controlling decision of any Iowa court
having jurisdiction over the subject matter hereof; or the City’s ability to collect Tax Increment from the
Office Building and Development Property is precluded or terminated by legislative changes to Iowa Code
Chapter 403. Upon occurrence of any of the foregoing circumstances, the City shall promptly forward
notice of the same to Developer. If the circumstances continue for a period during which two (2) annual
Economic Development Grants would otherwise have been paid to Developer under the terms of Section
8.1, the City may terminate this Agreement, without penalty or other liability to the City, by written notice
to Developer.
Section 8.4. Use of Other Tax Increments. The City shall be free to use any and all Tax Increments
above and beyond the percentages to be given to Developer in this Agreement, or any available Tax
Increments resulting from the suspension or termination of the Economic Development Grants, for any
17
Execution Version
purpose for which the Tax Increments may lawfully be used pursuant to the provisions of the Urban
Renewal Act (including an allocation of all or any portion thereof to the reduction of any eligible City
costs), and the City shall have no obligations to Developer with respect to the use thereof.
ARTICLE IX. INDEMNIFICATION
Section 9.1. Release and Indemnification Covenants.
a. Developer releases the City and the governing body members, officers, agents, servants,
and employees thereof (hereinafter, for purposes of this Article IX, the “Indemnified Parties”) from,
covenants and agrees that the Indemnified Parties shall not be liable for, and agrees to indemnify, defend,

or purportedly arising from: (i) any violation of any agreement or condition of this Agreement (except
with respect to any suit, action, demand, or other proceeding brought by Developer against the City to
enforce its rights under this Agreement); (ii) the acquisition and condition of the Development Property
and the construction, installation, ownership, and operation of the Office Building; or (iii) any hazardous
substance or environmental contamination located in or on the Development Property.
c. The Indemnified Parties shall not be liable for any damage or injury to the persons or
property of Developer, or its officers, agents, servants, or employees or any other person who may be
about the Minimum Improvements or Development Property due to any act of negligence of any person,
other than any act of negligence on the part of any such Indemnified Party or its officers, agents, servants,
or employees.
d. All covenants, stipulations, promises, agreements, and obligations of the City contained
herein shall be deemed to be the covenants, stipulations, promises, agreements, and obligations of the
City, and not of any governing body member, officer, agent, servant, or employee of the City in the
individual capacity thereof.
