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, but subject to limitation and adjustment as provided in this Article (such payments being referred to collectively as the “AP Economic Development Grants”).

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.2 above, the obligation of the City to make an AP Economic Development Grant in any year shall be subject to and conditioned upon the following: i. The timely completion and dedication of the Infrastructure Improvements; ii. AP Developer’s timely completion of the AP Minimum Improvements; iii. AP Developer being and remaining in compliance with the terms of this Agreement at the time of payment.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if, prior to the Termination Date, AP Developer has received AP Economic Development Grants equal to the AP Maximum Grant Amount but Kettlestone Developer has not yet received 18 Execution Version Kettlestone Economic Development Grants equal to the Kettlestone Maximum Grant Amount, then for all purposes under this Agreement, AP Tax Increments shall be treated as Kettlestone Tax Increments.

TIF Account and paid to Kettlestone Developer as Kettlestone Economic Development Grants, subject to the terms and conditions of this Article VII.

The Economic Development Grants shall be payable from and secured solely and only by amounts of incremental property tax revenues attributable to the incremental value of the Development Property that are received by the City from the Dallas County Treasur er.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each Economic Development Grant is subject to annual appropriation by the City Council. 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 have 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 Sections 7.1 and 7.2 hereof, the City shall have no obligation to make an Economic Development Grant to either Developer if at any time during the term hereof the City fails to appropriate funds; the City can no longer receive Tax Increments from the Development Property; or the City receives an opinion from a court of competent jurisdiction to the effect that the use of Tax Increments to fund an Economic Development Grant is not authorized or otherwise an appropriate urban renewal activity permitted to be undertaken by 19 Execution Version the City under the Urban Renewal Act or other applicable provisions of the Code, as then constituted. Upon such circumstance, the City shall promptly forward a notice of the same to the Developers. If the circumstances or legal constraints continue for a period during which two (2) Economic Development Grants would otherwise have been paid to either Developer, the City may terminate this Agreement, without penalty or other liability to the Developers, by written notice to the Developers. d. The City makes no representation with respect to the amounts that may finally be paid to Developers as the Economic Development Grants, and under no circumstances shall the City in any manner be liable to the Developers so long as the City timely applies the Tax Increments actually collected (regardless of the amounts thereof) to the payment of the Economic Development Grants, as and to the extent described in this Article. Section 7.5. Use of Other Tax Increments. Subject to the terms of this Article, the City shall be free to use any and all available Tax Increments in excess of the stated percentages or maximums or resulting from the suspension or termination of the Economic Development Grants, for any purpose for which the Tax Increments may lawfully be used pursuant to the provisions of the Urban Renewal Act, and the City shall have no obligations to the Developers with respect to the use thereof.
