WITNESSETIt: WHEREAS, the City and Seminole County (the "County") entered into a Wholesale Sewage Service Agreement dated January 11, 1995 and recorded in O.R. Book 2932 , Page 1/,13/1/~27 of the Public Records of Seminole County, Florida (the "Interlocal Agreement"), which is attached hereto, marked as Exhibit "A" and made a part hereof; and WHEREAS, pursuant to the Interlocal Agreement, the City will connect to the County' s wastewater system and the City will purchase on a wholesale basis wastewater capacity from the County in order to provide retail wastewater services to the Property, as herein defined; and WHEREAS, the property to be provided with sanitary sewer and wastewater disposal services pursuant to both the Interlocal Agreement and this Developer' s Agreement is that certain real estate described in the Seminole Towne Center Replat lying in Sections 29 and 32, Township 19 South, Range 30 East, City of Sanford, Florida, recorded in Plat Book 47, Pages 8 through 10, Public Records of Seminole County (the "Property"); and WHEREAS, pursuant to the Interlocal Agreement, the County has agreed to make available for the benefit of the Property, and to provide to the City for the Property, Wastewater Service Capacity in the amount of 250,000 GPD; and WHEREAS, the City desires to provide the Property with retail wastewater service; and WHEREAS, the City and Developer desire to enter into this Developer' s Agreement in order to provide the Property with retail wastewater services pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals, mutual covenants, agreements, premises herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows: ?/12/95:0620-004.RAF 1. Recitals. The foregoing recitals are tree and correct and form a material part of this Developer' s Agreement upon which the parties have relied. Terms defined in the Interlocal Agreement shall be used herein with the same meanings as in the Interlocal Agreement unless a contrary intent is clearly expressed. 3. Capacity. From the 250,000 GPD of wastewater capacity available for the benefit of the Property, Seminole Towne Center has paid t0 the County, at the retail rate, and purchased 60,746 GPD of wastewater service to serve the Enclosed Mall Building, Burdine's DeparUnent Store, Dillard's Depathnent Store, Parisian Department Store, J.C. Permey Department Store, Sears Department Store and the Sears TBA as shown on the Site Plan attached hereto and marked Exhibit "B" , and for drainage into the wastewater system from the heating, ventilation and air conditioning ("HVAC") systems for the same. Wastewater capacity in the amount of 189,254 GPD remains available to the Property and may be purchased from the City at the rate as established by the County Code. Upon each subsequent allocation from available wastewater capacity, a Memorandum of Wastewater Capacity shall be issued by the City to Developer setting forth the name of the customer, the type of facility being serviced, the amount of capacity allocated and the net reserved wastewater capacity available for future disbursement. In the event that the wastewater capacity available for the benefit of the Property in the Inte~ocal Agreement has been entirely allocated and wastewater service demands to the Property still exist, the City, subject to availability of capacity at the County Plant, will seek to amend the Interlocal Agreement to obtain additional wastewater capacity for retail sale by the City to the Property. Alternatively, ff the County Plant is operating at maximum capacity and if the City operates a wastewater system with capacity available and located in an area capable of serving the Property, the City will seek to amend the Interlocal Agreement to provide for the County to relinquish and grant rights and transfer reserved and/or prepaid wastewater capacity as required to perink the City to provide wastewater service directly to the Property from the City wastewater plant. In the event that the City does provide such wastewater service to the Property, service may be subject to fees including, but not limited to, City impact fees and monthly user fees. 4. Developer's Improvements. Developer shall cause to be designed, permitted and constructed on the Property the Collection Facilities, including lines, pipes, manholes and appurtenant equipment, to collect and transmit wastewater from the building service laterals to the point of connection to the County 7/12/95:0620-004.RAF 2 Transmission Facilities. The Collection Facilities shall be dedicated to the City. The service laterals from the buildings to the Collection Facilities shall be privately owned and maintained. Present or future lenders shall agree to subordinate their lien of mortgage to the right and interest of the City in that portion(s) of the gravity collection system facilities dedicated to the City. ' Water meters shall be provided or will be caused to be provided by Developer. The water meters located outside the Buildings will be owned and maintained by the City. Water meters located in utility rooms inside the Buildings shall not be owned or maintained by the City. Developer shall cause a Maintenance Bond at the rate of 10% of the cost of the improvements to be issued to cover the above described improvements dedicated to the City for a period of two (2) years from the date of completion of the same. Developer shall also have as- built drawings prepared by a registered licensed survey engineer of that portion of the gravity collection system Developer has caused to be constructed and installed in accordance with this Developer's Agreemere. A copy of the as-built drawings shall be delivered to the City Department of Utilities. Developer shall cause to be installed for the benefit of the Property a lift station and force main which shall, together with the underlying tract of land, be dedicated to the County, and thereafter operated and maintained by the County. 5.

The wastewater service provided by the City shall comply with and be in accordance with the requirements of the City Code, Seminole County, the Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitation Services and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. Sewage or wastewater from the Property shall conform with the criteria for residential and commercial wastewater strength as defined in and set forth in the Interlocal Agreement. The City shall, in accordance with Federal, State, County and City regulations, require grease traps or lint traps or industrial pretreatment for its retail wastewater customers' operating facilities for specified uses as set forth in the City Code, together with the discharge limitations for each such use set forth thereon, The City acknowledges that it will be the responsibility of the specific retail customer to comply with, supply and to pay for any required pretreatment or special features. In the event of a breach of the discharge limitations by a customer, that specific customer shall be responsible for payment of costs to correct or repair damage to the collection system and the treatment facilities. 7/12/95:0620-01M.RAF 3 7. Fees, Charges and Billing. The on-site and off-site improvements and installations performed by Seminole Towne Center in accordance with this Developer's Agreement and dedicated to the City and/or County have been done as contributions-imaid-of-constmction. In order to connect to the wastewater system, wastewater connection fees (sewer impact fees) are assessed at the current County rate and are calculated based upon the GPD capacity being allocated. The customer shall pay wastewater connection fees to the City, and the City will remit such payment to the County in accordance with the Interlocal Agreement. The City shah ensure that customers will be furnished with receipts for payment of connection fees from the City. Payment of wastewater connection fees shall entitle a customer to wastewater service, subject to customer' s payment of all City rates, fees, charges and deposits for wastewater service. In the event that a customer is unable to use all or any portion of the wastewater service capacity allocated to and paid for by it, Developer may request that the City seek the County's agreement to purchase the surplus capacity. Upon agreement by the County, the City will purchase from the customer and the County will purchase from the City the surplus capacity at the respective original rates paid, with no entitlement to interest on any fees or charges paid. Such purchase of surplus capacity may be deferred until another qualified customer(s) has been identified and has paid the Wastewater Connection Fee consistent with the Interlocal Agreement. Alternatively, Developer may request that the City seek the County's consent to transfer the surplus capacity to another portion of the Property. In the event that wastewater generation is in excess of the GPD quantity allocated to and paid for by a customer, upon notice by the City and verification of the actual usage in excess of the GPD quantity allocated and paid for, said customer shall be charged, without any penalty or interest, for the excess quantity actually being used. The City shall ensure that a receipt for such additional payment shall be provided to the customer by both the City and County. Customers located on the Property will be invoiced on a monthly basis for monthly user charges at the retail rate charged by the City in accordance with the City Code. Monthly user charges will be based upon 100% of the water consumption for a retail customer. The City acknowledges that its retail customers are relying upon the City remitting customer' s payments to the County in order to ensure continuous wastewater service. Retail customers shall be assessed a 5% penalty for payments delinquent for a period in excess of 21 days, and written notice that due to non-payment service may be subject to termination shall appear on the bill delivered 30 days thereafter. In the event of a default by the City in its payment obligations to the County that results in any interference with wastewater service to a retail customer or damage to a customer' s improvements, the customer shall have all legal and equitable remedies available to it under the laws of the State of Florida, including, but not limited to, any and all remedies available to customers of public water and sewer systems. Notwithstanding the foregoing, monthly user charges for retail wastewater service for the Enclosed Mall Building shall be calculated in the following described manner. In addition to the 7/12/95:0620*0(}4.RAF 4 water meter(s) for the Enclosed Mall Building, the HVAC units for the Enclosed Mall Building have water meters installed at both the points of inflow and outflow. Wastewater consumption for the Enclosed Mall Building shall not include water evaporated from its HVAC system. The rate the City charges its retail customers shall be in accordance with City customer service rates published, as amended from time to time, and in accordance with local City Code and regulations. A copy of the current County wholesale wastewater rate schedule is as specified in the Inte~ocal Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit "A". A copy of the current City retail wastewater service rate schedule are attached hereto and marked as Exhibit "C" . Retail customers located on the Property will pay the City retail rate fixed by City Code, as amended from time to time; however, if the County raises its wholesale wastewater rate so that the spread between the City retail wastewater rate and the County wholesale wastewater rate is less than 20%, then the City may adjust its retail wastewater rate to preserve and provide a 20% spread between the County wholesale and City retail wastewater rates, which spread is intended to cover the cost of retail adm'mistration, billing and collection and the cost of the collection system maintenance, repair and replacement. Lawful rate changes in the County's wholesale wastewater service charges will permit the City to, subject to the above limitation and upon compliance with notice, hearing and all legal procedures imposed upon a public utility, amend its rate schedule effective in the next billing period after notice thereof. In accordance with the easement rights granted hereinbelow, the City shall have access to the Property for the purpose of reading meters for billing purposes and to test all meters for accuracy at regular intervals of not less frequently than once every twelve (12) months. If upon any test, any meter is found to be not more than two (2%) percent fast or slow, previous readings of such meter shah be deemed correct in computing the volume of service delivered. If upon any test any meter shall be found to be inaccurate by any amount exceeding two (2%) percent, then bills to the affected customers shall be adjusted for meter error in excess of two (2%) percent of full scale reading. In calculafmg such billing adjustment, it will be assumed that the meter inaccuracy existed for one-half (1/2) of the entire time interval between meter accuracy checks, unless the City or the customer has a reasonable and verifiable basis to assert otherwise. Such adjustments to a bill shall be equally allocated overthe next twelve (12) month billing period. The City shall preserve for a period of three (3) years all test data and other records from its meters measuring the service delivered under this Developer's Agreement. 8. Easements. Developer hereby agrees to grant to or to obtain for the City perpetual, non-exclusive easements in recordable form for the purposes of maintaining, operating, testing, repairing and servicing the wastewater facility improvements dedicated to the City and located on, under, with'm, upon or across the Property, together with an easement for ingress and egress in order to exercise the rights to be granted and in order for the City to have access to read its meters. The City agrees to restore and return, as near as practicable, to its prior condition any property damaged by the City in the course of its exercise of the easement rights to be granted hereby. 7/12/95:0620-004.RAF 5 9.
