determined by any tax official to be applicable to the Project or the Developer or raise the <br />unconstitutionality of any such tax statute as a defense in any proceedings, including delinquent <br />tax proceedings with respect to the Development Property; provided, however, "tax statute" does <br />not include any local ordinance or resolution levying a tax. <br />(3) It will not seek any tax deferral or abatement, either presently or prospectively <br />authorized under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.1813, or any other State or federal law, of the <br />ad valorem property taxation of the Development Property between the date of execution of this <br />Agreement and the Termination Date <br />(4) Prior to January 1, 2034, the Developer may seek through petition or other means <br />to have the market value for the Development Property reduced. Until the TIF Note is fully paid, <br />such activity must be preceded by written notice from the Developer to the City indicating its <br />intention to do so. Upon receiving such notice, or otherwise learning of the Developer's intentions, <br />the City may suspend payments due under the TIF Note until the actual amount of the reduction is <br />determined, whereupon the City will make the suspended payments less any amount that the City <br />is required to repay the County as a result any reduction in market value of the Development <br />Property. During the period that the payments are subject to suspension, the City may make partial <br />payments on the TIF Note if it determines, in its sole and absolute discretion that the amount <br />retained will be sufficient to cover any repayment which the County may require. The City's <br />suspension of payments on the TIF Note pursuant to this Section shall not be considered a default <br />under this Agreement. <br />(5) Commencing January 1, 2034 and until the Termination Date, the Developer will <br />not seek a reduction in the market value as determined by the Anoka County Assessor of the <br />Project or any facilities located or to be located on the Development Property, pursuant to the <br />provisions of this Agreement, for so long as the TIF Note remains outstanding. <br />Section 3.6 Legal and Administrative Expenses.

The public purpose of the Business Subsidy is to preserve and increase the tax <br />base in the City, and create high -qualify job growth in the City. The Developer agrees that it will <br />meet the following goals (the "Goals") in connection with the development of the Development <br />Property: the Developer will create at least fifty-five (55) full time jobs at an minimum hourly <br />wage, exclusive of benefits, of $21.00 per hour within two years from the "Benefit Date", which <br />is the earlier of the date the Developer completes or occupies the Project <br />(2) If the Goals are not met, the Developer agrees to repay the City all or a part of the <br />Business Subsidy to the City, plus interest ("Interest") set at the implicit price deflator defined in <br />Minnesota Statutes, Section 275.70, Subdivision 2, accruing from and after the Benefit Date, <br />7 <br />196118333v1 <br />
