pursuant to Iowa Code Section 403.9 of the Urban Renewal Law, in amounts equal to a

remaining actual amount of tax increment revenues collected by City in respect of the
valuations of the Property prior to January 1, 2012 and (iv) any other portion required to be
excluded by Iowa law, and thus such incremental taxes will not include all amounts paid by
Developer as regular property taxes.
3.3 To fund the Economic Development Grants, City shall certify to the County prior to
December 1, 2012, its request for the available Developer Tax Increments resulting from
the assessments imposed by the County as of January 1 of that year and each year
thereafter until and including January 1, 2026, to be collected by City as taxes are paid
during the following fiscal year and which shall thereafter be disbursed to the Developer on
November 1 and May 1 of that fiscal year. (Example: if City so certifies in December, 2012,
the Economic Development Grants in respect thereof would be paid to the Developer on
November 1, 2013, and May 1, 2014.)
3.4 The Economic Development Grants shall be payable from and secured solely and
only by the Developer Tax Increments paid to City that, upon receipt, shall be deposited
and held in a special account created for such purpose and designated as the Betty Jane
Block TIF Account of City. City hereby covenants and agrees to maintain its TIF ordinance
in force during the term hereof and to apply the incremental taxes collected in respect of
the Minimum Improvements and allocated to the Betty Jane Block TIF Account to pay the
Economic Development Grants, as and to the extent set forth in Section 3.2 hereof. The
Economic Development Grants shall not be payable in any manner by other tax increments
revenues, or by general taxation or from any other City funds. City makes no
representation with respect to the amounts that may be paid to Developer as the Economic
Development Grants in any one year and under no circumstances shall City in any manner
be liable to Developer so long as City timely applies the Developer Tax Increments actually
collected and held in the Betty Jane Block TIF Account (regardless of the amounts thereof)
to the payment of the Economic Development Grants to Developer as and to the extent
described in this Section.
3.5 City shall be free to use any and all tax increment revenues collected in respect of
other properties within the Project Area and the remaining actual amount of the property
taxes paid by Developer to City, or any available Developer Tax Increments resulting from
the termination of the annual Economic Development Grants under Section 3.2 hereof, for
any purpose for which such tax increment revenues may lawfully be used pursuant to the

respect to the use thereof.
