WHEREAS, the City wishes to support community-based performing arts groups by encouraging

AGREEMENT
1. RECITALS. The above Recitals are true.
2. TERM. This Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date and shall continue in effect
for a period of five (5) years (the “Term”), unless sooner terminated as provided herein. The
Parties may extend the Term of this Agreement in writing upon mutual consent.
3. PURPOSE. The purpose of this Agreement is to enable the City to proceed with the Palm
Nipomo Parking Structure, and to allow SLO REP to explore the feasibility of SLO REP
financing, designing, constructing and operating the Theatre, at its sole cost and expense, on the
Remainder Property.
4. CITY’S OBLIGATIONS. The City shall, during the Term of this Agreement:
a. Exclusivity. Negotiate exclusively with SLO REP as the future tenant of the
Remainder Property.
b. Initiate Rezoning, General Plan amendments, and Lot Line Adjustment.
Upon City Council authorization, initiate all rezoning, General Plan amendments,
and a lot line adjustment necessary to allow the construction of the Palm Nipomo
Parking Structure on a portion of the Property and the Theatre on the Remainder
Property. The intent of this Agreement is for the Remainder Property to be created
as a “finished lot,” although the City legally cannot, and therefore does not,
contractually agree as to how it will exercise its legislative authority to rezone or
amend the General Plan and its land use authority to complete a lot line adjustment.
c. Environmental Review. The City has completed environmental review of the Palm
Nipomo Parking Structure and the Theatre and has certified a Final Environmental
Impact Report (“FEIR”) by Resolution No. 10923 (2018 Series). If SLO REP makes
any changes to the Theatre design or if any of the conditions set forth in CEQA
Guidelines § 15162 are triggered, then SLO REP may negotiate the portion of costs it
will bear in the event substantial new environmental issues are discovered during
construction, or if any project-specific environmental review related to the Theatre is
deemed necessary.
5. SLO REP’s OBLIGATIONS. SLO REP shall, during the term of this Agreement:
a. Non-Profit Status. Be a California non-profit corporation in good standing and be
exempt from state and federal income taxes under section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal
Revenue Code.
b. Proof of Financial Ability. Provide to City’s reasonable satisfaction that it has the
financial ability to design, construct and operate the Theatre on the Remainder
Property. At a minimum SLO REP shall:
Fundraising Plan. Provide the City with a fundraising plan by December 31,
2019 that is acceptable to, and approved by, the City Manager, whose approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The fundraising plan
shall include a timeline with milestones that shall be met no later than 1 year
from the estimated completion of the Palm Nipomo Parking Structure. These

milestones shall include, at a minimum, prior to commencement of lease
negotiations, but no later than one (1) year after City’s award and execution of a
contract to construct the Palm Nipomo parking Structure, that SLO REP shall
demonstrate, to the City Finance Director’s reasonable satisfaction, that SLO
REP has available at least 50% of all the funds necessary to design and construct
the Theatre.
i. Preliminary Cost Estimates. Provide the City with preliminary costs estimates
by December 31, 2020 to design, construct and operate the Theatre for at least
the first two (2) years after completion of construction. Update those estimates
as design progresses, but at least every 6 months. SLO REP will include the
payment of prevailing wages in its estimates.
ii. Annual Financials. Annually, on or before December 31st of each year, provide
the City with a current financial statement, copy of most recent filed state and
federal tax returns, and copies of current bank statements, to demonstrate

application for the Theatre to the City.
iv. Compensation for City Review Costs. Discuss and finalize how City
processing and review costs will be funded.
c. Environmental Review Information. Provide the City promptly with all information
necessary to conduct any subsequent environmental review of the Theatre that may be
necessary. This information includes, but is not limited to, square footage of structure;
square footage of various uses such as office, storage, classroom, and theatre; number
of seats; maximum number of performances per week, and any other information
deemed necessary by City.
6. TERMINATION. Either party may terminate this Agreement without liability to the other party
at any time by written notice to the other. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the
event SLO REP fails to secure building permits for the Theatre one year after the completion of
the Palm Nipomo parking structure.
7. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO LEASE NEGOTIATION AND EXECUTION. All of the
following conditions must be met as conditions precedent prior to lease execution for the
Remainder Property:
a. Lease negotiation:
i. Rezoning and Lot Line Adjustment. City has rezoned and/or amended the
City’s general plan and has perfected a lot line adjustment that will create the
Remainder Property as a “finished lot” allowing for construction and its use as
the Theatre.
ii. Obligations Met. Both City and SLO REP have met all of their respective
obligations under the Agreement.

within 3 years of the completion of the Palm Nipomo Parking Structure.
e. Design Coordination. Coordinate design of the Theatre with the City to ensure it is
compatible with the Palm Nipomo Parking Structure.
8. GENERAL LEASE TERMS. If the parties enter into the exclusive negotiations, the parties
desire that the lease include the following general provisions; provided, the actual language of
each provision is subject to further negotiation, and most material terms and provisions of the
lease have not yet been discussed. The City shall not lease the land for minimal rent unless the
lease is completely acceptable to the City and approved by the City Attorney. Nothing in this
paragraph shall be interpreted as an agreement or offer to lease upon the terms, provisions or
language set forth below.
a. SLO REP shall commence construction of the Theatre no later than one (1) year after the
completion of the Palm Nipomo Parking Structure and shall complete construction of the
Theatre within three (3) years after that. SLO REP shall not commence construction of
the Theatre unless SLO REP demonstrates, to the City’s Finance Manager’s reasonable
satisfaction prior to expiration of the year within which SLO REP is to commence
construction, that SLO REP has all of the funds necessary to design and construct, as
well as operate for at least one (1) years after completion of construction, the Theatre,
plus a 15% contingency, available in cash or approved financing (the “Required Funds”).
If SLO REP does not timely demonstrate that SLO REP has the Required Funds, or if
SLO REP fails to timely begin or timely complete construction, SLO REP shall be in
substantial default, and the lease shall automatically terminate unless City agrees
otherwise in writing. The Theatre shall be deemed complete only upon issuance of a
Certificate of Occupancy.

or its tax-exempt status under applicable state and federal law or to use the
Remainder Property for any purpose other than as a live performance theatre and
related City approved community uses during the term or any extended term of
the lease, shall be a material breach of the lease. In the event any such breach
occurs, City may, at its option, either terminate the lease or raise the rent to fair
market rates for neighboring commercial uses.
d. SLO REP shall design, construct, operate and maintain the Theatre and all street frontage
and landscaping, utility extensions and connections, and other improvements, based on

tree on 614 Monterey, along with the tree on the corner of Monterey and Nipomo.
h. If the SLO REP is not in material compliance with the Lease or ceases to be financially
solvent and to maintain the Property in a commercially reasonable manner, the lease shall
contain provisions for the City to declare a default of the Lease, for SLO REP to effect a
reasonable cure of the default(s), and for the City to terminate the Lease if the default(s)
are not cured pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Lease, and for the Remainder
Property to revert to the City.

improvements, mitigations etc.

nuisance, waste, requiring maintenance at SLO REP expense, etc.

structure, a new agreement will need to be negotiated between the parties for a mutually
acceptable alternate site or an alternate set of requirements for a portion of the Property.
n. The City will not subordinate its interest in the Remainder Property to any financing.

and both the City and SLO REP have a desire to continue working together towards the construction and
long-term operation of a new theatre building; and
WHEREAS, both the City and SLO REP have completed and will continue to maintain their
respective obligations specified in the ENA, as well as satisfy the necessary conditions precedent to lease

towards the preparation of a mutually agreeable lease agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual promises, obligations, and covenants
hereinafter contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. The Exclusive Negotiating Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
i. The term shall be extended for a period of six (6) months from the date of this
