B. The Owners possess fee title in and to that certain real property, together with associated structures and improvements thereon, generally located at the street address 1850 Smoke Tree Lane, Palm Springs, California ("Historic Property"). A legal description of the Historic Property is attached hereto as Exhibit A and is incorporated herein by this reference. C. The HOA and Owners share responsibility for routine maintenance and upkeep of the Historic Property's building exteriors and grounds. D. On November 9, 2023 (the "Approval Date"), the City Council approved Resolution 25158 establishing the subject property as a historic resource which is listed on the City's register of historic resources, sites, landmarks and districts. E. The City, the Owner, and the HOA desire to enter into this Agreement for the purpose of protecting and preserving the characteristics of historical significance of the Historic Property, in accordance with the State Law; to help preserve the Palm Springs community's own unique civic identity and character; and to qualify the Historic Property for an assessment of valuation pursuant to Revenue and Taxation Code Section 439.2 and any corresponding adjustment in property taxes resulting therefrom.

Non -Renewal and Cancellation. If either the Owner or the City desire in any year not to renew this Agreement, the Owner or the City shall serve a written notice of nonrenewal upon the party in advance of the Renewal Date ("Notice of Nonrenewal"). The Notice of Nonrenewal shall be effective only if served by the Owner upon the City at least ninety (90) days prior to the Renewal Date, or if served by the City upon the Owner, the Notice of Nonrenewal shall be effective only if served upon the Owner at least sixty (60) days prior to the Renewal Date. If either the City or the Owner serve a Notice of Nonrenewal in any year, this Agreement shall remain in effect for the balance of the term then remaining from the last Renewal Date (or from the Effective Date if no Renewal Date has yet occurred). 3. Owner Protest of City Nonrenewal. Within fifteen (15) days of the Owner's receipt of the Notice of Nonrenewal from the City, the Owner may file with the City a written protest of the Notice of Nonrenewal.

During the term of this Agreement, the Property shall be subject to the following conditions, requirements, and restrictions: 4.1 The Owner and the HOA shall preserve and maintain the characteristics of the cultural and historical significance of the Historic Property. Attached to this Agreement as Exhibit "B", is a list of the minimum standards and conditions for maintenance, use, protection, and preservation of the Historic Property, which shall apply to the Historic Property. The Owner and HOA shall comply with these minimum standards throughout the term of this Agreement. In addition, Owner and HOA shall comply with the terms of the City Code, and shall obtain any applicable permits necessary to protect, preserve, restore, and rehabilitate the Historic Property so as to maintain its historical and cultural significance. 2 4.2 The Owner and the HOA shall, where necessary, repair, maintain, restore, and rehabilitate the Historic Property according to the rules and regulations of the Office of Historic Preservation of the State Department of Parks and Recreation, Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties, the State Historical Building Code, and the City of Palm Springs. The condition of the interior and exterior of the Historic Property on the effective date of this Agreement is documented in photographs attached as Exhibit "C" to this Agreement. At a minimum, Owner and HOA shall continually maintain the exterior of the Historic Property in the same condition as documented in Exhibit "C." 4.3 The Owner and the HOA shall carry out specific restoration, repair, maintenance, and/or rehabilitation projects on the Historic Property, as outlined in the attached Exhibit "D" to this Agreement.

Interior and Exterior Inspections. Prior to the approval, execution, and recordation of this Agreement, and every five years thereafter, the City Manager of the City or the City Manager's designee (the "City Manager") shall inspect the interior and exterior of the premises to determine the Owner's compliance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. 6. Provision of Information of Compliance. The Owner and the HOA shall furnish the City Manager with any and all information requested by the City Manager, which the City Manager deems necessary or advisable to determine eligibility of the Historic Property and compliance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. 7. Breach of Agreement: Remedies. 7.1 If the Owner or the HOA breaches any provision of this Agreement, the City Manager may give written notice to the Owner and/or HOA by registered or certified mail detailing the Owner's and/or HOA's violations. If such violation is not corrected to the reasonable satisfaction of the City Manager within thirty (30) days after the date of notice of violation, or within such a reasonable time as may be required to cure the violation (provided the acts to cure the violation are commenced within thirty (30) days and thereafter diligently pursued to completion), the City Manager may, without further notice, declare The Owner and/or HOA to be in breach of this Agreement. Upon the City Manager's declaration of the 3 Owner's and/or HOA's breach, the City Manager may pursue any remedy available under local, state, or federal law, including those specifically provided for in this section. 7.2 The City Council may cancel this Agreement if the City Council determines, following a duly noticed public hearing in accordance with California Government Code section 50286, that the Owner or HOA breached any of the conditions of the Agreement, the Owner or HOA allowed the Historic Property to deteriorate to the point that it no longer meets the standards for a qualified historic property, or the Owner or HOA failed to maintain and preserve the Historic Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If this Agreement is cancelled, under this paragraph, the Owner shall pay a cancellation fee to the Office of the Auditor for the County of Riverside as required by California Government Code Section 50286. 7.3 As an alternative to cancellation of this Agreement for the Owner's or HOA's breach of any condition, the City Manager may bring an action in court necessary to enforce this Agreement including, but not limited to, an action to enforce this Agreement by specific performance, injunction, or receivership. 8. Destruction of Property; Eminent Domain; Cancellation. If the Historic Property is destroyed by earthquake, fire, flood, or other natural disaster such that in the opinion of the City Building Official more than sixty percent (60%) of the original fabric of the structure must be replaced, this Agreement shall be cancelled because the historic value of the structure will have been destroyed. If the Historic Property is acquired in whole or in part by eminent domain or other acquisition by any entity authorized to exercise the power of eminent domain, and the acquisition is determined by the City Council to frustrate the purpose of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be cancelled. No cancellation fee pursuant to Government Code section 50286 shall be imposed if the Agreement is cancelled pursuant to this Section. 9. Waiver. The City does not waive any claim of default by the Owner or HOA if the City or the City Manager does not enforce or cancel this Agreement. All other remedies at law or in equity which are not otherwise provided for in this Agreement or in City's regulations governing historic properties are available to the City to pursue in the event that there is a reach of this Agreement. No waiver by the City or the City Manager of any breach or default under this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other subsequent breach thereof or default hereunder. 10.
