EXHIBIT I EXPENSES INCURRED BY LANDLORD — CALCULATION OF "NET REVENUE" (Section 4.1.1) TABLE OF CONTENTS: Page W GROUND LEASE THIS GROUND LEASE (the "Lease ") is made and entered into, effective as of August _, 2015 (the "Effective Date "), by and between THE CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO, a municipal corporation and charter city ( "Landlord "), and GARDEN STREET SLO PARTNERS, L.P., a California limited partnership ( "Tenant "), and consists of the Basic Provisions set forth in Article 1, below (the "Basic Provisions "), the Standard Terms and Conditions set forth in Articles 2 through 20 which are attached hereto (the "Standard_ Terns and Conditions "), the definitions set forth in Schedule 1 hereto, and the other exhibits attached hereto, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference. RECITALS; A. Landlord is the owner of the "Premises" identified below (which consist of the "Land" and the existing "Improvements," as defined in Section 1. 1, below), and Tenant is the owner of, or has a controlling interest in, the other adjacent parcels of land that, together with the Premises, are situated in that portion of the City of San Luis Obispo that is generally bounded by Broad Street, Garden Street, Marsh Street, and the Garden Alley (such parcels, as they may be changed with the written approval of Landlord, together with the Premises, collectively are referred to as the "Project Are "). B. Tenant intends to develop and construct in the Project Area a hotel, residential units, restaurants and retail space, along with parking consistent with the Project approvals (the "Pr_ oject "). C. Landlord and Tenant have previously entered into that certain Amended and Restated Memorandum of Agreements executed in February 2014 (the "Memorandum of Agreements "), which described the basic terms on which Tenant and Landlord were willing to move forward to enter into a long term lease and certain other agreements concerning the development by Tenant of the Project Area, and this Lease is the long term lease contemplated by that Memorandum of Agreements. D. The City has previously found that the Project, as entitled, will have an important revitalization effect on the downtown area in the City. E. The City has previously found that the Project is consistent with key General Plan policies including Land Use Element Policy 4.1, which describes downtown's role as that of ensuring (1) that downtown is the cultural, social and political center of the City for its residents as well as home for those who live in its historic neighborhoods; (2) that the civic, cultural and commercial portions of downtown should be a major tourist destination; and (3) that downtown visitor appeal should be based on natural, historical and cultural features, retail services, and numerous and varied visitor accommodations, and Land Use Element Policy 4.2.1, together with Housing Element Policy 3.11.2, direct new downtown development, such as the Project, to include dwellings. F. The City has previously found that the Project will support concepts set forth in the Conceptual Physical Plan for the City's center (the "Downtown Concept Plan ") which are to be considered by the City as set forth in Land Use Element Policy 4.16. G. The City has previously found that negotiations between the City and Tenant for this Lease are appropriate in light of Tenant's ownership or control of certain of the parcels abutting Parking Lot 2, and because Tenant, in its capacity as developer of the Project, has made significant investment to procure the Project entitlements, and without its participation the Project and the benefits it is expected to confer upon the community could not occur. For this reason, the City previously agreed that this Lease would be accomplished without a competitive bidding process in order to serve substantial revitalization objectives that will be furthered by completion of the Project. GROUND LEASE: Page 1 H. The City has previously found that the utilization of City property and the elimination of on -site City parking is critical to implement the Project as entitled by the City Council on June 1, 2010 and as finally approved on March 4, 2014. I. As the contemplated Project (as altered over time) has been under negotiation between Landlord and Tenant since before July 18, 2006, Tenant has had ample time and access to the Premises prior to the Effective Date to inspect the Premises and all of Landlord's books and records concerning the Premises; to review all title and other public records concerning the Premises including without limitation the past uses and environmental condition of the Premises; to investigate all aspects of the Premises, including the feasibility of Tenant's planned use of the Premises and the physical condition of the Premises; and to undertake any and all due diligence concerning the Premises including its environmental condition with the understanding that pursuant to this Lease, Tenant shall take possession of the Premises in its "AS -IS" condition, as detailed in this Lease. J. In order to facilitate Tenant's construction of the Project, the Landlord has agreed to (i) lease the Premises to Tenant, (ii) permit Tenant to pursue a subdivision of the airspace above the Land, and (iii) convey to Tenant fee ownership of the airspace condominium interests created by the approved final subdivision, while retaining fee ownership of the Land below any subdivided airspace. K. Landlord and Tenant have agreed to execute this Lease in order to memorialize the terms and conditions on which Landlord shall lease the Premises to Tenant.

(C) The provisions of this Lease which expressly state that they survive expiration or termination shall so survive and remain enforceable despite the termination of this Lease pursuant to this Section 16.2. 16.2.2 REENTRY BY LANDLORD WITHOUT TERMINATION. If, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease as provided in Section 16.2.1, then Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, re -enter and endeavor to relet the Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord reasonably considers advisable. (A) Landlord shall be entitled to make such alterations and repairs as may reasonably be necessary in order to relet the Premises. In the event that Landlord elects to so relet, then any such reletting shall be deemed to be a sublease for the benefit of Tenant, and rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied: (i) first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; (ii) second, to the payment of any reasonable costs of such reletting, including the reasonable costs of repairs and new tenant improvements, attorneys' fees and brokerage commissions; (iii) third, to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and (iv) the residue, if any, shall be remitted to Tenant.

Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any reasonable costs and expenses (but subject to any limitations set forth above) incurred by Landlord in such reletting not covered by the rentals received from such reletting. No re- entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord for the purpose of making repairs or alterations or reletting the Premises shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of termination is given to Tenant or a court of competent jurisdiction finds that a termination has occurred. (B) Notwithstanding any other provisions set forth in this Lease to the contrary, if Landlord takes possession of the Premises and /or relets the Premises without terminating this Lease, then the only obligations of Tenant to Landlord from and after the date of taking of possession by Landlord and /or the date of reletting by Landlord, whichever shall occur first, shall be the payment of Base Rent and Additional Rent; Tenant shall have no further obligations under this Lease with regard to indemnification, insurance, use, maintenance, or otherwise. (C) Should Tenant Abandon the Premises, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, padlock or otherwise secure the entrances to the Premises without prior notice or resort to legal process and without being deemed guilty of trespass or becoming liable for any loss or damage. All costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Landlord in securing the entrances to the Premises shall be borne by Tenant. No such padlocking or securing of the Premises shall constitute or be deemed to be an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of termination is given to Tenant or a court of competent jurisdiction finds that a termination of this Lease has occurred. GROUND LEASE: Page 25 16.2.3 RIGHT TO RECOVER RENT. In addition to any other remedy provided to Landlord hereunder, as long as this Lease has not been terminated Landlord shall have the right to recover the Rent when and as it becomes due, together with late charges and interest, from time to time and at such intervals as Landlord elects, as provided by Section 1951.4 of the California Civil Code. 16.2.4 LANDLORD'S DAMAGES. Notwithstanding any reletting by Landlord without termination of the Lease, Landlord may at any time elect to terminate this Lease following the occurrence of an uncured Event of Default. Should Landlord elect to terminate this Lease, then in addition to any other remedies it may have, Landlord may recover from Tenant all damages Landlord may incur by reason of such breach, including (a) the reasonable costs incurred in recovering the Premises, (b) the worth at the time of award of an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of such termination plus (ii) the amount by which the unpaid Rent which would have been earned for the balance of the Term after such termination exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; (c) reasonable attorneys' fees, and (d) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease, including without limitation any failure by Tenant to reimburse or indemnify Landlord as required under any provision of this Lease. 16.2.5 ASSIGNMENT OF SUBRENTS. To secure Tenant's obligations under this Lease, Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all subrents and other sums becoming due from subtenants, licensees and concessionaires (referred to collectively herein as "subrents "). Landlord agrees not to enforce such assignment other than during any period in which Landlord has the right under this Lease, whether exercised or not, to reenter the Premises on account of a default by Tenant, and Tenant shall not have any right to such sums during that period. Any such subrents actually paid to and received by Landlord shall be applied against the obligations of Tenant as provided in Section 16.2.4, above. This assignment is specifically subject and subordinate to any and all assignments of the same subrents and other sums made to a Leasehold mortgagee under any first- priority Leasehold mortgage permitted by the provisions of this Lease, and upon the request of any such Leasehold mortgagee, Landlord shall make, execute, and deliver to such Leasehold mortgagee a subordination instrument confirming that the rights of Lender under this Section 16.2.5 are subject and subordinate to those of such Leasehold mortgagee.

During the continuance of any uncured Event of Default, Tenant shall not be entitled to exercise any rights or options, or to receive any funds or proceeds being held under or pursuant to this Lease. 16.2.7 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE AND NOT EXCLUSIVE. The rights, powers and remedies of Landlord hereunder shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given by statute, rule of law and in equity, and all such remedies shall be cumulative. The exercise of any one or more of such right, powers and remedies shall not be construed as a waiver or election by Landlord of any other rights, powers or remedies of Landlord arising pursuant to any provision of law or this Lease. 16.2.8 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES NOT WAIVED. No course of dealing between the Tenant and the Landlord or any failure or delay on the part of the Landlord in exercising any rights or remedies pursuant to law or arising pursuant to this Lease shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of Landlord. Neither the subsequent acceptance by Landlord of any amounts paid to it on account of or with respect to amounts owed by Tenant pursuant to this Lease, or the application of any such amounts in reduction of outstanding Rent or other obligations due from Tenant shall constitute a waiver or cure of default, other than default in the timely payment of the amount so accepted, regardless GROUND LEASE: Page 26 of Landlord's knowledge of the preceding breach. Landlord's acceptance of Rent or any other payment after termination of this Lease shall not entitle the Tenant to have this Lease reinstated. Any waiver, express or implied, by any party hereto, of any breach by any party of any covenant or provision of this Lease, shall not be, nor be construed to be, a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term or provision hereof. 16.2.9 LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULTS. = Landlord, at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, shall be entitled but shall not be obligated to cure such default, or to cause such default to be cured, at the sole cost and expense of Tenant after first giving Tenant notice of its intention to do so. If, by reason of any default by Tenant, Landlord reasonably incurs any expense or pays any sum, or performs any act requiring Landlord to reasonably incur any expense or to pay any sum, including attorneys' fees and reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred by Landlord in order to prepare and post or deliver any notice permitted or required by the provisions of this Lease or otherwise permitted or contemplated by law, to appear in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, or otherwise to enforce any of its rights under this Lease, then the amount so paid or incurred by Landlord shall be immediately due and payable to Landlord by Tenant as Additional Rent. Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to deduct said sums from any security deposit held by Landlord. If there is no security deposit, or if Landlord elects not to use any such security deposit, then such sums shall be paid by Tenant immediately upon demand by Landlord, and shall bear interest at the Agreed Rate from the date on which such demand is made until the entire amount due has been paid in full. 16.3 LANDLORD'S DEFAULT. If Landlord fails to perform or observe any of the covenants, provisions, or conditions contained in this Lease on its part to be performed or observed within thirty (30) days after written notice of default or if more than thirty (30) days are required because of the nature of the default, if Landlord fails to commence the cure of such default within the thirty (30) day period and proceed diligently to cure such default after written notice, then Landlord shall be responsible to Tenant for any and all actual damages (excluding any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages or any damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages) sustained by Tenant as a result of Landlord's breach and Tenant shall be entitled to deduct all costs, expenses and damages resulting from Landlord's breach against all sums due under this Lease, or to seek injunctive relief or specific performance from Landlord. 16.4 FAILURE TO PAY SENIOR LIEN. If the Premises are subject to the lien of any trust deed, mortgage, judgment, assessment, tax or other obligation, whether incurred before or after the execution of this Lease, that Tenant is not bound under this Lease to pay or discharge, or should Landlord fail to pay or discharge any obligation that Landlord is obligated under this Lease to pay or discharge, Tenant may, but need not, pay or discharge any such obligations. If Tenant elects to pay or discharge any such obligation, Landlord shall, upon demand, reimburse Tenant in the full amount thereof, together with Tenant's expenses incurred in connection therewith, including reasonable attorney's fees and interest from the date of payment pursuant to Section 21.13 of this Lease, and Tenant may deduct from Rent and other sums due Landlord under this Lease or from the purchase price of any sale of the Premises made by Landlord to Tenant all amounts due to Tenant from Landlord, but not timely paid, under this Section 16.4 of this Lease or any other section of the Lease, until such amounts have been paid in full.

GROUND LEASE: Page 30 ARTICLE 20 LOAN TO TENANT 20.1 LOAN. Landlord (via its Parking Enterprise Fund), will provide to the Tenant, at or prior to Tenant's commencement of construction of the Project but only after Tenant's execution, delivery and recordation of the Loan Documents, a loan in the original principal amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), which Tenant shall repay as follows: 20.1.1 INTEREST RATE. The loan shall bear interest at a fixed annual rate equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Lending Rate in effect on the date of the loan plus two percent (2.0 %). For purposes of the foregoing, the term "Wall Street Journal Prime Lending Rate" means, as of any day, the "U.S. Prime Rate" published in The Wall Street Journal's "Money Rate" table on the last business day immediately prior to the day as of which such rate is being determined. If such table or rate is not published as of such date, then the term "Wall Street Journal Prime Lending Rate" shall be deemed to be a reference to the prime lending rate of Bank of America in effect on the last business day immediately prior to such date. If Bank of America does not then exist or does not then publish its prime lending rate, then the "Wall Street Journal Prime Lending Rate" shall be the prime lending rate of Landlord's principal banking institution on the last business day immediately prior to the date as of which such rate is being determined. 20.1.2 AMORTIZATION; REPAYMENT; MATURITY. The principal of and interest on such loan shall be repayable in equal monthly installments of principal and interest based upon 25 -year amortization, provided that the loan shall mature and be repayable in full ten (10) years following the date of such loan. 20.1.3 SECURITY. The obligations of Tenant under such loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note and secured by a deed of trust and assignment of rents and conventional commercial loan documents in commercially reasonable form (the "Loan Documents "), each prepared by Landlord and reasonably acceptable to Tenant encumbering title to the Project, other than title to any airspace condominium units as to which Landlord has conveyed and recorded title pursuant to Section 17.13W(iii). The lien of such deed of trust shall be a second - priority lien, subordinate to the lien of a first- priority deed of trust securing financing in an original principal amount of not more than 65% of the fair market value of the Project, as constructed and completed, and after rents shall have been stabilized.

All rent due pursuant to the terms of this Lease shall be absolutely net to the Landlord, so that this Lease shall yield net to Landlord the rent payable hereunder during the Term of this Lease, it being intended that this Lease shall be a so- called triple net lease. The parties intend that the entire risk for development and use of the leased premises shall be borne by Tenant, and that this Lease shall not be subject to termination due to intervening events (including changes in land use and zoning laws and regulations) which frustrate Tenant's proposed use of the Premises or (except to the extent expressly provided in Articles 12 and 13) the occurrence of an uninsured casualty loss. Consistent with its obligations as a city to conform to applicable law and exercise its discretion concerning the approval of any development plans, permit applications or other requests for approvals, entitlements, permits or similar permissions submitted by Tenant, Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant in all respects thereto, including evaluating such requests for approvals, entitlements, permits or similar permissions as required under applicable law, and approving such requests for approvals, entitlements, permits or similar permissions in accordance with GROUND LEASE: Page 31 applicable law and Landlord's policies. For avoidance of doubt, nothing stated or implied in this Lease, including without limitation in this Section 21.1, shall be interpreted to mean that Landlord is in any way waiving, limiting, or weakening any regulatory or police power Landlord may have in any of its governmental capacities, and no refusal or failure by Landlord in its governmental or regulatory capacity to take any legislative action, issue any permit or license, or take any other action or provide any approval sought by Tenant as developer for the construction of improvements on, or development of, the Project shall constitute a breach of this Lease. 21.2 TIME OF ESSENCE.

Landlord shall provide a copy of any such assignment to Tenant, promptly after the occurrence of such assignment.

All obligations of Landlord under the Lease must be expressly assumed in writing by Landlord's successor in interest.

If Tenant is a publicly traded corporation, Tenant may satisfy its obligations hereunder by providing to Landlord Tenant's most recent annual and quarterly reports. Tenant will discuss its financial statements with Landlord and, following the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, will give Landlord access to Tenant's books and records in order to enable Landlord to verify the financial statements. To the extent allowed under the Laws applicable to it, Landlord will not disclose any aspect of Tenant's financial statements that Tenant designates to Landlord as confidential except (1) to Landlord's mortgagee, if any, or prospective mortgagees or purchasers of the Premises, (2) in litigation between Landlord and Tenant, and (3) if required by court order.
