(f) The Borrower (and any person related to it within the meaning of Section 147(a)(2) of the Code) will not take or omit to take, as is applicable, any action if such action or omission would in any way cause the proceeds from the sale of the Bonds to be applied in a manner contrary to the requirements of the Indenture, the Loan Agreement or this Regulatory Agreement.

(d) No part of the Project will at any time be owned or used as a condominium or by a cooperative housing corporation, nor shall the Borrower take any steps in connection with a conversion to such ownership or uses. The Borrower shall not take any steps in connection with a conversion of the Project to a condominium or cooperative ownership except with the prior written approving opinion of Bond Counsel that by reason of any such action the interest on the Bonds will not become includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes. 8 (e) All of the dwelling units (except for [one] manager’s unit described in (g) below) will be available for rental on a continuous basis to members of the general public and the Borrower will not give preference to any particular class or group in renting the dwelling units in the Project, except to the extent that dwelling units are required by this Regulatory Agreement or any other restriction to be imposed on the Project to be leased or rented to Low Income Tenants, Very Low Income Tenants and to holders of Section 8 certificates or vouchers or, in the case of any other restrictions imposed on the Project, to tenants meeting the income and affordability restrictions required thereby. (f) The Project Site consists of a parcel or parcels that are contiguous except for the interposition of a road, street or stream, and all of the Project Facilities will comprise a single geographically and functionally integrated project for residential rental property, as evidenced by the ownership, management, accounting and operation of the Project. (g) No dwelling unit in any building in the Project shall be occupied by the Borrower unless the building contains five or more dwelling units, in which case [one] unit may be occupied by the Borrower or by persons related to or affiliated with the Borrower such as a resident manager or maintenance personnel. Subject to the foregoing limitation, one unit in the Project may be occupied by resident managers or maintenance personnel. (h) Should involuntary noncompliance with the provisions of Section 1.103-8(b) of the Regulations be caused by fire, seizure, requisition, foreclosure, transfer of title by deed in lieu of foreclosure, change in a federal law or an action of a federal agency after the Closing Date which prevents the Issuer from enforcing the requirements of the Regulations, or condemnation or similar event, the Borrower covenants that, within a “reasonable period” determined in accordance with the Regulations, it will either prepay the Loan and thereby cause the Bonds to be redeemed or apply any proceeds received as a result of any of the preceding events to reconstruct the Project to meet the requirements of Section 142(d) of the Code and the Regulations. (i) The Borrower shall not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, creed, color, ethnic group identification, sex, sexual preference, age, source of income (e.g. AFDC, SSI), mental or physical disability, national origin or marital status in the rental, lease, use or occupancy of the Project or in connection with the employment or application for employment of persons for the operation and management of the Project.

(ii) The household voluntarily moves or is evicted for “good cause.” For these purposes, “good cause” means the nonpayment of rent or allegation of facts necessary to prove major, or repeated minor, violations of material provisions of the lease agreement which detrimentally affect the health and safety of other persons or the structure, the fiscal integrity of the Project, or the purposes or special programs of the Project. 9 (iii) Sixty (60) years after the commencement of the Qualified Project Period. (iv) The Borrower pays the relocation assistance and benefits to such Low Income Tenants or Very Low Income Tenants, as applicable, as provided in Section 7264(b) of the Government Code of the State of California. (k) The Issuer may but shall not be required to monitor the Borrower’s compliance with the provisions of subparagraph (j) above. Section 4. Low Income and Very Low Income Units. (a) Pursuant to the requirements of Section 142(d) of the Code and applicable provisions of the Act, the Borrower hereby represents, as of the date hereof, and warrants, covenants and agrees as follows: (i) During the Qualified Project Period, not less than ten percent (10%) of the units in the Project shall be designated as Very Low Income Units and shall be continuously occupied by or held available for occupancy by Very Low Income Tenants at monthly rents paid by tenants which do not exceed one-twelfth of the amount obtained by multiplying 30% times 50% of the Median Income for the Area, as adjusted for household size utilizing the percentages set forth above under the definition of Very Low Income Tenant less a reasonable deduction for utilities paid by the tenant as determined by the Issuer and assuming (solely for purposes of the above-described limit on the amount of monthly rent, and not for purposes of determining whether individuals or families are Very Low Income Tenants for purposes of Section 142(d) of the Code), the following unit sizes and household sizes: Unit Size Household Size One Bedroom Two Persons Two Bedrooms Three Persons Three Bedrooms Four and a Half Persons Such Very Low Income Units shall be of comparable quality and offer a range of sizes and number of bedrooms comparable to those units which are available to other tenants and shall be distributed throughout the Project. A unit occupied by a Very Low Income Tenant who at the commencement of the occupancy is a Very Low Income Tenant shall be treated as occupied by a Very Low Income Tenant until a recertification of such tenant’s income in accordance with Section 4(c)(i) below demonstrates that such tenant no longer qualifies as a Very Low Income Tenant and thereafter such unit shall be treated as any residential unit of comparable or smaller size in the Project occupied by a new resident other than a Very Low Income Tenant. Moreover, a unit previously occupied by a Very Low Income Tenant and then vacated shall be considered occupied by a Very Low Income Tenant until reoccupied, other than for a temporary period, at which time the character of the unit shall be redetermined. In no event shall such temporary period exceed thirty-one (31) days. (ii) In addition to the Very Low Income Units set aside under paragraph (i) above, during the Qualified Project Period not less than another thirty percent (30%) of the units in the Project shall be designated as Low Income Units and shall be continuously occupied by or held available for occupancy by Low Income Tenants at monthly rents which do not exceed one-twelfth of the amount obtained by multiplying 30% times 60% of the Median Income for the Area, as adjusted for household size utilizing the percentages set forth above under the definition of Low 10 Income Tenant less a reasonable deduction for utilities paid by the tenant as determined by the Issuer and assuming (solely for purposes of the above-described limit on the amount of monthly rent, and not for purposes of determining whether individuals or families are Low Income Tenants for purposes of Section 142(d) of the Code), the following unit sizes and household sizes: Unit Size Household Size One Bedrooms Two Persons Two Bedrooms Three Persons Three Bedrooms Four and a Half Persons Such Low Income Units shall be of comparable quality and offer a range of sizes and number of bedrooms comparable to those units which are available to other tenants and shall be distributed throughout the Project. A unit occupied by a Low Income Tenant who at the commencement of the occupancy is a Low Income Tenant shall be treated as occupied by a Low Income Tenant until a recertification of such tenant’s income in accordance with Section 4(c)(ii) below demonstrates that such tenant no longer qualifies as a Low Income Tenant and thereafter such unit shall be treated as any residential unit of comparable or smaller size in the Project occupied by a new resident other than a Low Income Tenant. Moreover, a unit previously occupied by a Low Income Tenant and then vacated shall be considered occupied by a Low Income Tenant until reoccupied, other than for a temporary period, at which time the character of the unit shall be redetermined. In no event shall such temporary period exceed thirty-one (31) days. (b) Immediately prior to a Very Low Income Tenant’s occupancy of a Very Low Income Unit and a Low Income Tenant’s occupancy of a Low Income Unit, the Borrower will obtain and maintain on file an Income Certification from each Very Low Income Tenant occupying a Very Low Income Unit and each Low Income Tenant occupying a Low Income Unit, dated immediately prior to the initial occupancy of such Very Low Income Tenant or Low Income Tenant, as applicable, in the Project. In addition, the Borrower will provide such further information as may be required in the future by the State of California, the Issuer, the Act, Section 142(d) of the Code and the Regulations, as the same may be amended from time to time, or in such other form and manner as may be required by applicable rules, rulings, policies, procedures or other official statements now or hereafter promulgated, proposed or made by the Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service with respect to obligations issued under Section 142(d) of the Code. The Borrower shall verify that the income provided by an applicant is accurate by taking one or more of the following steps as a part of the verification process: (1) obtain a federal income tax return for the most recent tax year, (2) obtain a written verification of income and employment from the applicant’s current employer, (3) if an applicant is unemployed or did not file a tax return for the previous calendar year, obtain other verification of such applicant’s income satisfactory to the Issuer or (4) such other information as may be reasonably requested by the Issuer. Copies of the most recent Income Certifications for Low Income Tenants and Very Low Income Tenants shall be attached to the quarterly report to be filed with the Issuer as required in (d) below. (c) (i) Immediately prior to the first anniversary date of the occupancy of a Very Low Income Unit by one or more Very Low Income Tenants, and on each anniversary date thereafter, the Borrower shall recertify the income of the occupants of each Very Low Income Unit 11 by obtaining a completed Income Certification based upon the current income of each occupant of the unit. In the event the recertification demonstrates that such household’s income exceeds 140% of the income at which such household would qualify as Very Low Income Tenants, such household will no longer qualify as Very Low Income Tenants, and to the extent necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 4(a)(i) above, the Borrower will rent the next available unit of comparable or smaller size to one or more Very Low Income Tenants. No tenants shall be denied continued occupancy in the Project because, after occupancy, their income increases to make them no longer qualify as Very Low Income Tenants. (ii) Immediately prior to the first anniversary date of the occupancy of a Low Income Unit by one or more Low Income Tenants, and on each anniversary date thereafter, the Borrower shall recertify the income of the occupants of each Low Income Unit by obtaining a completed Income Certification based upon the current income of each occupant of the unit. In the event the recertification demonstrates that such household’s income exceeds 140% of the income at which such household would qualify as Low Income Tenants, such household will no longer qualify as Low Income Tenants and to the extent necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 4(a)(ii) above, the Borrower will rent the next available unit of comparable size to one or more Low Income Tenants. (d) Upon commencement of the Qualified Project Period, and within ten days of the last day of each quarter thereafter during the term of this Regulatory Agreement, the Borrower shall advise the Issuer of the status of the occupancy of the Project by delivering to the Issuer a Certificate of Continuing Program Compliance. (e) The Borrower shall maintain complete and accurate records pertaining to the Low Income Units and Very Low Income Units, and shall permit any duly authorized representative of the Issuer, the Agent, the Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service to inspect the books and records of the Borrower pertaining to the Project, including those records pertaining to the occupancy of the Low Income Units and Very Low Income Units. (f) The Borrower shall submit to the Secretary of the Treasury annually on the anniversary date of the start of the Qualified Project Period, or such other date as is required by the Secretary, a certification that the Project continues to meet the requirements of Section 142(d) of the Code, and shall provide a copy of such certification to the Issuer. (g) The Borrower shall accept as tenants on the same basis as all other prospective tenants, persons who are recipients of federal certificates or vouchers for rent subsidies pursuant to the existing program under Section 8 of the United States Housing Act of 1937, or its successor. The Borrower shall not apply selection criteria to Section 8 certificate or voucher holders that are more burdensome than criteria applied to all other prospective tenants. The Borrower shall not collect any additional fees or payments from a Low Income Tenant or a Very Low Income Tenant except security deposits or other deposits required of all tenants. The Borrower shall not collect security deposits or other deposits from Section 8 certificate or voucher holders in excess of those allowed under the Section 8 Program. The Borrower shall not discriminate against applicants for Low Income Units or Very Low Income Units on the basis of source of income (i.e., AFDC or SSI), and the Borrower shall consider a prospective tenant’s previous rent history of at least one year as evidence of the ability to pay the applicable rent (ability to pay shall be demonstrated if an applicant can show that the same percentage or more of the applicant’s income has been paid for rent in the past as will be required to be paid to rent the Very Low Income Unit to be occupied). 12 (h) Each lease pertaining to a Low Income Unit or Very Low Income Unit shall contain a provision to the effect that the Borrower has relied on the Income Certification and supporting information supplied by the applicant in determining qualification for occupancy of the Low Income Unit or Very Low Income Unit, as applicable, and that any material misstatement in such certification (whether or not intentional) will be cause for immediate termination of such lease. Each lease will also contain a provision that failure to cooperate with the annual recertification process reasonably instituted by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4(c) above may, at the option of the Borrower, disqualify the unit as a Low Income Unit or Very Low Income Unit, as applicable, or provide grounds for termination of the lease. (i) Prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower agrees to provide to the Issuer a copy of the form of application and lease to be provided to prospective Low Income Tenants and Very Low Income Tenants. The term of of the lease shall be not less than thirty (30) days. (j) To the extent required by law, notwithstanding the termination of the Qualified Project Period, the rent of “in-place” Low Income Tenants and Very Low Income Tenants at the conclusion of the Qualified Project Period will continue to be governed by the applicable affordability restrictions in this Section 4, so long as those tenants continue to live in the Project. The foregoing shall not prevent the Borrower from terminating a tenant’s occupancy in accordance with the terms of such tenant’s lease or from declining to extend such tenant’s lease. Section 5. Tax Status of the Bonds. The Borrower and the Issuer each hereby represents, as of the date hereof, and warrants, covenants and agrees that: (a) It will not knowingly take or permit, or omit to take or cause to be taken, as is appropriate, any action that would adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes or the exemption from California personal income taxation of the interest on the Bonds and, if it should take or permit, or omit to take or cause to be taken, any such action, it will take all lawful actions necessary to rescind or correct such actions or omissions promptly upon obtaining knowledge thereof; (b) It will take such action or actions as may be necessary, in the written opinion of Bond Counsel filed with the Issuer and the Trustee, to comply fully with the Act and all applicable rules, rulings, policies, procedures, Regulations or other official statements promulgated, proposed or made by the Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service pertaining to obligations issued under Section 142(d) of the Code to the extent necessary to maintain the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds; and (c) The Borrower, at the Borrower’s expense, will file of record such documents and take such other steps as are necessary, in the written opinion of Bond Counsel filed with the Issuer and the Trustee, in order to insure that the requirements and restrictions of this Regulatory Agreement will be binding upon all owners of the Project, including, but not limited to, the execution and recordation of this Regulatory Agreement in the real property records of the County of San Diego. The Borrower hereby covenants to notify any subsequent owner of the Project of the requirements and restrictions contained in this Regulatory Agreement in any documents transferring any interest in the Project to another person to the end that such transferee has notice of such restrictions, and to obtain the agreement from any transferee to abide by all requirements and restrictions of this Regulatory Agreement; provided that the covenants contained in this paragraph 13 shall not apply to the Holder should the Holder become the owner of the Project by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or comparable conversion of the Loan Documents. Section 6. Modification of Special Tax Covenants. The Borrower, the Trustee and the Issuer hereby agree as follows: (a) To the extent any amendments to the Act, the Regulations or the Code shall, in the written opinion of Bond Counsel filed with the Issuer and the Trustee, impose requirements upon the ownership or operation of the Project more restrictive than those imposed by this Regulatory Agreement which must be complied with in order to maintain the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds, this Regulatory Agreement shall be deemed to be automatically amended to impose such additional or more restrictive requirements following delivery of written notice thereof to Borrower. (b) To the extent any amendments to the Act, the Regulations or the Code shall, in the written opinion of Bond Counsel filed with the Issuer and the Trustee, impose requirements upon the ownership or operation of the Project less restrictive than imposed by this Regulatory Agreement, this Regulatory Agreement may be amended to conform in whole or in part to such changed requirements should the Issuer, in its sole discretion, determine that such requirements should be made applicable to the Project. (c) The Borrower, the Issuer and, if applicable, the Trustee shall execute, deliver and, if applicable, file of record any and all documents and instruments, necessary to effectuate the intent of this Section 6, and each of the Borrower and the Issuer hereby appoints the Trustee as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute, deliver and, if applicable, file of record on behalf of the Borrower or the Issuer, as is applicable, any such document or instrument (in such form as may be approved in writing by Bond Counsel) if either the Borrower or the Issuer defaults in the performance of its obligations under this subsection (c); provided, however, that the Trustee shall take no action under this subsection (c) without first notifying the Borrower or the Issuer, or both of them, as is applicable, unless directed in writing by the Issuer or the Borrower and without first providing the Borrower or the Issuer, or both, as is applicable, an opportunity to comply with the requirements of this Section 6. Section 7. Indemnification. The Borrower hereby releases the Issuer, the Trustee, their officers and employees from, and covenants and agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Issuer, the Trustee, their officers, members, directors, officials, agents and employees and each of them (collectively the “Indemnified Parties,” and, individually an “Indemnified Party”) from and against, any and all claims, losses, costs, damages, demands, expenses, taxes, suits, judgments, actions and liabilities of whatever nature, joint or several (including, without limitation, costs of investigation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, litigation and court costs, amounts paid in settlement, and amounts paid to discharge judgments), made directly or indirectly (a) by or on behalf of any person arising from any cause whatsoever in connection with transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise in connection with the Project, the Bonds, or the execution or amendment of any document relating thereto; (b) arising from any cause whatsoever in connection with the approval of financing for the Project, the making of the Loan or otherwise; (c) arising from any act or omission of the Borrower or any of its agents, servants, employees or licensees, in connection with the Loan or the Project; (d) arising in connection with the issuance and sale, resale or reissuance of any Bonds or any certifications or representations made by any person (other than the Issuer or the party seeking indemnification in connection therewith) or the carrying out by the Borrower of any of the transactions contemplated by the Bonds, the Indenture, the Loan Agreement or this Regulatory 14 Agreement; (e) arising in connection with the operation of the Project, or the conditions, environmental or otherwise, occupancy, use, possession, conduct or management of work done in or about, or from the planning, design, acquisition, installation or rehabilitation of, the Project or any part thereof; and (f) arising out of or in connection with the Trustee’s acceptance and administration of the trusts created by the Indenture and the exercise of its powers or duties thereunder or under the Loan Agreement, this Regulatory Agreement or any other agreements in connection therewith to which it is a party. This indemnification shall extend to and include, without limitation, all reasonable costs, counsel fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in connection with any such claim, or proceeding brought with respect to such claim, except (i) in the case of the foregoing indemnification of the Trustee or any of its Indemnified Parties, to the extent such damages are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person and (ii) in the case of the foregoing indemnification of the Issuer or any of its Indemnified Parties to the extent such damages are caused by the willful misconduct of such Person. In the event that any action or proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Party with respect to which indemnity may be sought hereunder, the Borrower, upon written notice from the Indemnified Party, shall assume the investigation and defense thereof, including the employment of counsel selected by the Indemnified Party and approved by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld); and the Borrower shall assume the payment of all reasonable fees and expenses related thereto, with full power to litigate, compromise or settle the same in its sole discretion; provided that the Issuer shall have the right to review and approve or disapprove any such compromise or settlement. The Borrower specifically acknowledges and agrees that it has an immediate and independent obligation to defend each Indemnified Party from any claim which actually or potentially falls within this Section 7 even if such claim is or may be groundless, fraudulent or false, which obligation arises at the time such claim is tendered to the Borrower by any Indemnified Party and continues at all times thereafter. Each Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action or proceeding and participate in the investigation and defense thereof, and the Borrower shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel; provided, however, that unless such separate counsel is employed with the approval of the Borrower, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Borrower shall not be required to pay the fees and expenses of such separate counsel unless the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that a conflict exists between the interests of the Borrower and such Indemnified Party, in which case the Borrower shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel. The Borrower also shall pay and discharge and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer and the Trustee from (i) any lien or charge upon payments by the Borrower to the Issuer and the Trustee hereunder arising out of Borrower’s actions or inactions and (ii) any taxes (including, without limitation, all ad valorem taxes and sales taxes), assessments, impositions and other charges in respect of any portion of the Project. If any such claim is asserted, or any such lien or charge upon payments, or any such taxes, assessments, impositions or other charges, are sought to be imposed, the Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Borrower, and the Borrower shall have the sole right and duty to assume, and will assume, the defense thereof, with full power to litigate, compromise or settle the same in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding any transfer of the Project to another owner in accordance with the provisions of Section 10 of this Regulatory Agreement, the Borrower shall remain obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Section 7, unless at the time of transfer the Issuer 15 has consented to indemnification under this Section 7 from such subsequent owner. If the Issuer has consented to any transfer of the Project in accordance with the provisions of Section 10 of this Regulatory Agreement, the Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Section 7 for actions or inactions of the transferee arising after such transfer, but shall remain obligated to provide indemnity for claims related to actions or inactions occurring prior to such transfer. In addition to the foregoing, the Borrower will pay upon demand all of the fees and expenses paid or incurred by the Agent or the Issuer in enforcing the provisions hereof, unless such enforcement is related to an event occurring after a transfer that the Issuer has consented to in accordance with the provisions of Section 10 of this Regulatory Agreement. The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive the term of the Bonds and this Regulatory Agreement. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section are independent of any other contractual obligation of the Borrower to provide indemnity to the Indemnified Parties, and the obligation of the Borrower to provide indemnity hereunder shall not be interpreted, construed or limited in light of any other separate indemnification obligation of the Borrower. The Indemnified Parties shall be entitled simultaneously to seek indemnity under this Section and any other provision under which they are entitled to indemnity. Section 8. Consideration. The Issuer has issued the Bonds to make the Loan to finance the Project, all for the purpose, among others, of inducing the Borrower to acquire, rehabilitate, equip and operate the Project. In consideration of the issuance of the Bonds by the Issuer, the Borrower has entered into this Regulatory Agreement and has agreed to restrict the uses to which the Project can be put on the terms and conditions set forth herein. Section 9. Reliance. The Issuer and the Borrower hereby recognize and agree that the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein may be relied upon by all persons interested in the legality and validity of the Bonds, and in the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds and the exemption from California personal income taxes of the interest on the Bonds. In performing their duties and obligations hereunder, the Issuer and the Trustee may rely upon statements and certificates of the Borrower, the Low Income Tenants, the Very Low Income Tenants, and upon audits of the books and records of the Borrower pertaining to the Project. In addition, the Issuer and the Trustee may consult with counsel, and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by the Issuer or the Trustee under this Regulatory Agreement in good faith and in conformity with such opinion, but only to the extent Issuer first obtains a letter from such counsel allowing Borrower to rely on such opinion (it further being understood that the Borrower shall bear all costs related to such opinion and letter); provided, however, if there are conflicting opinions among the counsel selected by such parties, the opinion of Bond Counsel shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Regulatory Agreement. In determining whether any default or lack of compliance by the Borrower exists under this Regulatory Agreement, the Trustee shall not be required to conduct any investigation into or review of the operations or records of the Borrower and may rely solely on any notice or certificate delivered to the Trustee by the Borrower or the Issuer with respect to the occurrence or absence of a default. Section 10. Sale or Transfer of the Project; Syndication. The Borrower intends to hold the Project for its own account, has no current plans to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Project, and hereby covenants and agrees not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Project, or 16 any portion thereof (other than for individual tenant use as contemplated hereunder), without obtaining the prior written consent of the Issuer (except as provided in the second to last paragraph of this Section 10) and upon receipt by the Issuer (except as provided in the second to last paragraph of this Section 10) of (i) such certifications as deemed necessary by the Issuer to establish that the Borrower shall not be in default under this Regulatory Agreement or under the Loan Agreement or, if any such defaults exist, the purchaser or assignee undertakes to cure such defaults to the satisfaction of the Issuer; (ii) a written instrument by which the Borrower’s purchaser or transferee has assumed in writing and in full the Borrower’s duties and obligations under this Regulatory Agreement, (iii) an opinion of counsel for the transferee that the transferee has duly assumed the obligations of the Borrower under this Regulatory Agreement and that such obligations and this Regulatory Agreement are binding on on the transferee, (iv) documentation from the transferee reflecting the transferee’s experience or, should the transferee choose to have a property manager run the Project, a property manager’s experience with owning and/or operating multifamily housing projects such as the Project and with use and occupancy restrictions similar to those contained in this Regulatory Agreement, and (v) an opinion of Bond Counsel addressed to the Issuer and the Servicer to the effect that such transfer will not cause interest on the Bonds, to become includable in the gross income of the recipients thereof for federal income tax purposes. The Borrower shall not allow any non-profit entity, which is not as of the date hereof a general partner of the Borrower, to become a general partner of the Borrower nor release any non-profit entity which is a general partner of the Borrower as of the date hereof from the limited partnership without the prior written consent of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer (which consent shall not be be unreasonably withheld). No transfer of the Project shall operate to release the Borrower from its obligations under this Regulatory Agreement with respect to any action or inaction taken prior to such transfer. It is hereby expressly stipulated and agreed that any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Project in violation of this Section 10 shall be null, void and without effect, shall cause a reversion of title to the Borrower, and shall be ineffective to relieve the Borrower of its obligations under this Regulatory Agreement. Not less than 30 days prior to consummating any sale, transfer or disposition of any interest in the Project, the Borrower shall deliver to the Issuer and the Trustee a notice in writing explaining the nature of the proposed transfer. The Borrower shall not syndicate the Project unless, prior to such syndication, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Issuer is delivered to the Issuer to the effect that (i) the terms and conditions of the syndication do not reduce or limit any of the requirements of the Act or regulations adopted or documents executed pursuant to the Act, (ii) no requirements of the Issuer shall be subordinated to the syndication agreement, and (iii) the syndication shall not result in the provision of fewer assisted units, or the reduction of any benefits or services, than were in existence prior to the syndication agreement. Notwithstanding the above, the following transfers will be permitted without consent of the Issuer: (a) a transfer of partnership interests in Borrower to or by the tax credit investor (the “Tax Credit Investor”) under the limited partnership agreement of the Borrower (the “Partnership Agreement”), or its respective designee pursuant to the partnership agreement of the Borrower; (b) a transfer of the limited partner interests in the Borrower of the Tax Credit Investor to an affiliate of the Tax Credit Investor; (c) a transfer of the limited partner interests in the Borrower of the Tax Credit Investor to nonaffiliates of the Tax Credit Investor; (d) the removal and replacement of the general partner of the Borrower under the Partnership Agreement (the “General Partner”) pursuant to the Partnership Agreement. Prior to any transfer of partnership interests or removal of the General 17 Partner permitted in (d) above, the Issuer shall receive an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Issuer to the effect that such transfer will not cause interest on the Bonds, to become includable in the gross income of the recipients thereof for federal income tax purposes. Nothing contained in this Section 10 shall affect any provision of the Loan Documents requiring the Borrower to obtain the consent of the Servicer to any proposed transfer. Section 11. Foreclosure. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 10 to the contrary, neither the consent of the Issuer nor the delivery of items (i) through (v) of the first paragraph of Section 10 (the “Transfer Conditions”) shall be required in the case of a transfer by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, whereby the Holder becomes the owner of the Project, and nothing contained in this Section 11 shall otherwise affect the right of the Servicer or the Trustee to foreclose on the Project or accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure. The Transfer Conditions shall be applicable to any subsequent transfer by the Servicer or the Trustee. Section 12. Term. This Regulatory Agreement and all and several of the terms hereof shall become effective upon its execution and delivery and shall remain in full force and effect during the Qualified Project Period, or for such longer period as is provided in Sections 3(j) and 7 above, and in the CDLAC Resolution referred to in Section 26 below, it being expressly agreed and understood that the provisions hereof are intended to survive the retirement of the Bonds and expiration of the Indenture, the Loan Agreement, the Loan and the Mortgage. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Regulatory Agreement to the contrary, this entire Regulatory Agreement, or any of the provisions or sections hereof, may be terminated prior to the expiration of the Qualified Project Period upon agreement by the Issuer, the Trustee (if Bonds are still outstanding) and the Borrower only if there shall have been received by the Issuer an opinion opinion of Bond Counsel that such termination will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds or the exemption from State personal income taxes of the interest on the Bonds. The terms of this Regulatory Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding (except as to the provisions of Section 7), this Regulatory Agreement, and each and all of the terms hereof, shall terminate and be of no further force or effect in the event of an involuntary noncompliance by the Borrower with the provisions of this Regulatory Agreement caused by fire, seizure, requisition, change in a federal law or an action of a federal agency after the Closing Date which prevents the Issuer and the Trustee from enforcing the provisions of this Regulatory Agreement, foreclosure on the Project or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or condemnation or a similar event, but only if within a reasonable period thereafter the Bonds are redeemed or retired or amounts received as a consequence of such event are used to provide a project that meets the requirements of the Code set forth in this Regulatory Agreement; provided, however, that the preceding provisions of this sentence shall cease to apply and the restrictions contained herein shall be reinstated if, at any time subsequent to the termination of such provisions as the result of the foreclosure on the Project or the delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or a similar event, the Borrower or any Affiliated Party obtains an ownership interest in the Project for federal income tax purposes. Upon the termination of the terms of this Regulatory Agreement, the parties hereto agree to execute, deliver and record appropriate instruments of release and discharge of the terms hereof; provided, however, that the execution and delivery of such instruments shall not be necessary or a prerequisite to the termination of this Regulatory Agreement in accordance with its terms. 18 Section 13. Covenants to Run With the Land. The Borrower hereby subjects the Project (including the Project Site) to the covenants, reservations and restrictions set forth in this Regulatory Agreement. The Issuer and the Borrower hereby declare their express intent that the covenants, reservations and restrictions set forth herein shall be deemed covenants running with the land and shall pass to and be binding upon the Borrower’s successors in title to the Project; provided, however, that on the termination of this Regulatory Agreement said covenants, reservations and restrictions shall expire. Each and every contract, deed or other instrument hereafter executed covering or conveying the Project or any portion thereof shall conclusively be held to have been executed, delivered and accepted subject to such covenants, reservations and restrictions, regardless of whether such covenants, reservations and restrictions are set forth in such contract, deed or other instruments. Section 14. Burden and Benefit. The Issuer and the Borrower hereby declare their understanding and intent that the burden of the covenants set forth herein touch and concern the land in that the Borrower’s legal interest in the Project is rendered less valuable thereby. The Issuer and the Borrower hereby further declare their understanding and intent that the benefit of such covenants touch and concern the land by enhancing and increasing the enjoyment and use of the Project by Low Income Tenants and Very Low Income Tenants and by furthering the public purposes for which the Bonds were issued. Section 15. Uniformity; Common Plan. The covenants, reservations and restrictions hereof shall apply uniformly to the entire Project in order to establish and carry out a common plan for the use, development and improvement of the Project Site. Section 16. Enforcement. If the Borrower defaults in the performance or observance of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Borrower set forth in this Regulatory Agreement, and if such default remains uncured for a period of 60 days after written notice thereof shall have been given by the Issuer or the Trustee to the Borrower (or such longer period if the Borrower provides the Issuer and the Servicer (if any Bonds are outstanding) with an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such extension will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds), then the Issuer may, or upon the direction of the Issuer or the Servicer, the Trustee may, subject to the provisions of Section 9 hereof, and to the extent indemnified pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture, and acting on its own behalf or on behalf of the Issuer, declare an “Event of Default” to have occurred hereunder, and, at its option, may take any one or more of the following steps: (i) by mandamus or other suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, require the Borrower to perform its obligations and covenants hereunder or enjoin any acts or things which may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of the Issuer or the Trustee hereunder; (ii) have access to and inspect, examine and make copies of all of the books and records of the Borrower pertaining to the Project; (iii) take such other action at law or in equity as may appear necessary or desirable to enforce the obligations, covenants and agreements of the Borrower hereunder. The Borrower hereby agrees that specific enforcement of the Borrower’s agreements contained herein is the only means by which the Issuer may fully obtain the benefits of such agreements made by the Borrower herein, and the Borrower therefore agrees to the imposition of the 19 remedy of specific performance against it in the case of any Event of Default by the Borrower hereunder. The Trustee shall have the right, in accordance with this Section 16 and the provisions of the Indenture, upon notice to but without the consent or approval of the Issuer, but subject to the Unassigned Issuer’s Rights of the Issuer, to exercise any or all of the rights or remedies of the Issuer hereunder. All fees, costs and expenses of the Trustee (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred in taking any action pursuant to this Section 16 shall be the sole responsibility of the Borrower. After the Indenture has been discharged, or if the Trustee fails to act under this Section 16, the Issuer may act on its own behalf to declare an “Event of Default” to have occurred and to take any one or more of the steps specified hereinabove to the same extent and with the same effect as if taken by the Trustee. After the date on which no Bonds remain outstanding as provided in the Indenture, the Trustee shall no longer have any duties or obligations under this Regulatory Agreement, and all references to the Trustee herein shall be deemed references to the Issuer. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Regulatory Agreement or the Indenture to the contrary, the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Regulatory Agreement shall not (i) be deemed, under any circumstances whatsoever, to constitute a default under the Loan Documents, except as may be otherwise specified in the Loan Documents or (ii) impair, defeat or render invalid the lien of the Mortgage. The rights of the Trustee under this Section are in addition to all rights conferred upon the Trustee under the Indenture and in no way limit those rights. Section 17. Recording and Filing. The Borrower shall cause this Regulatory Agreement and all amendments and supplements hereto and thereto, to be recorded and filed in the real property records of the County of San Diego and in such other places as the Issuer or the Trustee may reasonably request. The Borrower shall pay all fees and charges incurred in connection with any such recording. Section 18. Payment of Fees. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses of the Agent and the Issuer in connection with the Bonds and the financing of the Project as such costs and expenses become due and payable upon the receipt of written invoices verifying such costs and expenses. On the Closing Date, the Issuer shall be paid an administrative fee by the Borrower in the amount of one-eighth of one percent (1/8%) of the aggregate original face principal amount of the Bonds. Thereafter, the Issuer shall be paid an ongoing administrative fee payable in advance every six (6) months commencing on the Closing Date in the amount of (i) one-half (1/2) of one-eighth of one percent (1/8%) of the aggregate original face principal amount of the Bonds until the Conversion Date, and (ii) on the first January 1 or June 1 following the Conversion Date and thereafter, one-half (1/2) of one-eighth of one percent (1/8%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds outstanding immediately after the Conversion Date payable every six (6) months, until the end of the Qualified Project Period. Notwithstanding any prepayment of the Loan and notwithstanding a discharge of the Indenture, throughout the term of this Regulatory Agreement, the Borrower shall continue to pay to 20 the Issuer the Issuer Fee, and, in the event of default, shall also pay to the Issuer and to the Trustee reasonable compensation for any services rendered by either of them hereunder and reimbursement for all expenses reasonably incurred by either of them in connection therewith. The fee payable to the Issuer referenced in this section shall in no way limit amounts payable by the Borrower under Section 7 hereof, or arising after an Event of Default in connection with the Issuer’s or the Trustee’s enforcement of the provisions of this Regulatory Agreement. The fee payable to the Issuer referenced in this section includes any fee to be paid by the Issuer to any entity which administers the Project. In the event that the Bonds are redeemed in part or in full prior to the end of the term of this Regulatory Agreement, the Issuer Fee payable to the Issuer for the remainder of the term of this Regulatory Agreement, at the option of the Issuer, shall be paid by the Borrower at the time of the redemption of the Bonds and shall be a lump sum amount equal to the present value (based on a discount rate equal to the prime rate identified by the Wall Street Journal at the time of redemption) of the Issuer Fee for the number of years remaining under the Regulatory Agreement. Section 19. Governing Law. This Regulatory Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. Section 20. Amendments. Except as provided in Section 6(a) hereof, this Regulatory Agreement shall be amended by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto or their successors in title, and duly recorded in the real property records of the County of San Diego. Any amendment to this Regulatory Agreement shall be accompanied by an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such amendment will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds. Section 21. Notice. All notices, certificates or other communications shall be sufficiently given and shall be deemed given on the date personally delivered or on the second day following the date on which the same have been mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: Issuer: Housing Authority of the City of Chula Vista 276 Fourth Avenue Chula Vista, California 91910 Attention: Executive Director Telephone: ____________ Facsimile: ____________ Trustee: U.S. Bank National Association 633 West Fifth Street, 24th Floor Los Angeles, California 90071 Attention: ______________ Telephone: ____________ Facsimile: ____________ 21 Borrower: Congregational Tower Partners, L.P. c/o Retirement Housing Federation 911 N.

Section 23. Multiple Counterparts.

Compliance by Borrower. The Trustee shall not be responsible for monitoring or verifying compliance by the Borrower with its obligations under this Regulatory Agreement. Section 25.
