2. Under section titled "Developer's Covenants" add "In the event, the Commission
exercises the revisionary right, Developer shall be entitled to reimbursement in an
amount equal to any infrastructure improvements on the property as long as said
improvements are beneficial and useful to any future and subsequent developer of the
property. Said reimbursement shall be the responsibility of subsequent developer and not
the Commission."
3. Section titled, "AS IS" should read as, "Except as otherwise specifically provided in the
Development Agreement, the Property shall be conveyed to Developer AS IS, WHERE
IS, WITH ALL FAULTS via quit claim deed or Special Warranty.
Mr. Lake suggested removing the language regarding the prohibition of billboards on the
property, as this is already covered under Planning and Zoning regulations.

Snelling to sign the development agreement created as a reflection of the term sheet. Mr.
LaGrange seconded the motion. Motion passed 4 — 0.
