AGENDA ITEM 3B
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Michael Grochala, Community Development Director
MEETING DATE: February 12, 2018
TOPIC: Consider Resolution No. 18-02, Approving Collateral Assignment
and Subordination of Development Agreement and Tax Increment
Note, AX Lino Lakes L.P. – TIF District 1-12
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
BACKGROUND
The Economic Development Authority (EDA) approved the Contract for Private Development
with United Properties and Distribution Alternatives in July of 2016. The action also included
authorization for the issuance of a Tax Increment Revenue Note. Construction of the 402,000
square foot facility and associated public improvements has been completed.
In December of 2017, AX Lino Lakes, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, acquired the
property, including all rights under the TIF Note and the Contract. Bank of America, N.A. (the
“Lender”), has agreed to provide a loan to the new owner in the amount of $16,110,000 to
finance a portion of the acquisition costs. As a condition, the Lender requires that the owner
assigns all rights under the Contract and TIF note to the Lender and that the EDA agrees to
subordinate its rights under the Contract to the rights of the Lender.
Pursuant to Section 7.3 of the Contract for Private Development, dated July 25, 2016, between
the EDA, the Developer, and Distribution Alternatives, Inc., the EDA agreed to subordinate its
rights under the Contract for Private Development as long as the subordination was subject to
reasonable terms and conditions. Section 8.2 of the Contract permits the assignment of the
Assignor’s rights and duties under the Contract subject to the EDA’s approval.
Julie Eddington, of Kennedy & Graven, the EDA’s development counsel, has reviewed the
request and has recommended approval.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending approval of Resolution No. 18-01.

"Project Loan"). The Project Loan will be secured by, among other things, a Mortgage, Security

abasse\bank america\artis-clearwater\loan documents
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and in order to induce Bank to make the
Project Loan, Owner and the Authority agree as follows:
1. Assignment. Owner hereby transfers and assigns to Bank and grants to Bank a security
interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Development Agreement, the TIF Note, the
tax increments payable thereunder, any and all other payments made or to be made thereunder and all
proceeds thereof. This Assignment is made to induce Bank to enter into the Loan Agreement and make
the Project Loan, and for the purpose of securing the performance and observance by Owner of all of the
terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement and the Note (as defined in the Loan Agreement), and all
other obligations of Owner to Bank in connection with the Project and the Loan. This Assignment shall
constitute a perfected, absolute and present assignment, provided that Bank shall not have any right under
this Assignment to enforce the provisions of the Development Agreement or exercise any other remedies
under this Assignment unless and until Bank delivers an Assumption Notice pursuant to Section 8 of this
Assignment.
2. Endorsement and Delivery of TIF Note. Owner shall endorse the TIF Note to Bank and,
upon Bank’s written request (in Bank’s sole discretion), Owner shall deliver the TIF Note directly to
Bank at the address set forth in Section 15 hereof. If the Bank so elects to hold the TIF Note, upon receipt,
Bank shall attach to the TIF Note an endorsement from Owner in favor of Bank in the form of Exhibit B
attached hereto, which Owner shall execute contemporaneously with this Assignment. If the Bank has
elected and requested to hold the original TIF Note, then Bank shall then hold the TIF Note subject to the
terms of this Assignment.
3. Representations and Warranties of Owner. Owner represents and warrants to Bank and
agrees as follows:
(a) Owner will not, without the prior written consent of Bank, modify, amend,
supplement, terminate, surrender or change in any manner whatsoever the Development Agreement or the
TIF Note and will not release or discharge the obligations of any party thereto or modify or extend the
time of performance thereunder or the scope of the work thereunder.
(b) The Development Agreement and the TIF Note are or will be, as applicable, free
and clear of all liens, security interests, assignments and encumbrances other than the assignment and
security interest created by this Assignment.
(c) Owner has the full right, power and authority to assign its interest in the
Development Agreement and, upon its issuance, the TIF Note, free and clear of any and all liens, security
interests and assignments.
(d) Owner will keep the Development Agreement and the TIF Note free from any
lien, encumbrance, assignment or security interest whatsoever, other than this Assignment and security
interest.
(e) Owner will from time to time and at the request of Bank execute such documents
and pay the cost of filing and recording the same and do such other acts and things as Bank may request
to establish and maintain a perfected security interest in the Development Agreement and the TIF Note
which is valid and superior to all liens, claims or security interests whatsoever.
(f) There have been no defaults on the part of Owner under the Development
Agreement, and, to Owner's knowledge, neither the Authority nor Tenant is in default under the
Development Agreement.

abasse\bank america\artis-clearwater\loan documents
4. Covenants of Owner. Owner covenants and agrees that:
(a) It shall perform each and every one of its duties and obligations under the
Development Agreement and observe and comply with each and every term, covenant, condition,
agreement, requirement, restriction and provision of the Development Agreement.
(b) It shall give prompt notice to Bank of any claim of or notice of default under the
Development Agreement known or given to it together with a copy of any such notice or claim if in
writing.
(c) At the sole cost and expense of Owner, Owner will enforce the full and complete
performance of each and every duty and obligation to be performed by Authority and/or Tenant under the
Development Agreement and the TIF Note.
(d) It will appear in and defend any action arising out of or in any manner connected
with the Development Agreement and the duties and obligations of Owner, Tenant or the Authority
thereunder.
5. Authority's Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Authority represents and
warrants to and covenants with Bank as follows:
(a) The execution, delivery and performance of this Assignment have been duly
authorized by all necessary action.
(b) Until all amounts advanced and to be advanced under the Loan Documents have
been repaid, no amendment to the Development Agreement shall be binding on Bank unless Bank
consents to the amendment in writing.
(c) The Development Agreement is in full force and effect and has not been
amended, and neither the Authority nor, to the Authority's knowledge, none of Developer, Owner or
Tenant, is in default under the Development Agreement.
(d) If a default shall occur under the Development Agreement, the Authority shall
provide Bank with written notice of such default contemporaneously with any notice given to Owner or
Tenant. Prior to exercising its rights under the Development Agreement in connection with any default
(including but not limited to Section 9.2 set forth therein), the Authority shall provide Bank with the same
opportunity to cure such default as is given to Owner or Tenant under the Development Agreement, and
the Authority shall accept such cure as if tendered directly by Owner or Tenant; provided, however, that
(i) Bank shall have not less than thirty (30) days to cure a monetary default and not less than sixty (60)
days to cure a nonmonetary default, (ii) Bank will not be required to cure any default which is personal to
Owner or Tenant and is not susceptible of being cured by Bank, and (iii) if Bank's ability to cure requires
it to obtain possession of the Property, then it shall have such time to cure as is reasonably necessary to
gain possession through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or other methods, not to exceed twelve
(12) months following receipt by Bank of written notice of the default. For the avoidance of doubt, the
Authority shall not take any action to terminate the Development Agreement or the TIF Note due to any
default by Owner or Tenant as long as Bank is exercising its cure rights as provided in this Section with
reasonable diligence.
6. Bank's Rights to Act on Behalf of Owner. Owner hereby authorizes Bank during an
Event of Default to act on its behalf either in the name of Owner or Bank in connection with the exercise
of any of the rights of Owner under the Development Agreement. Owner hereby irrevocably constitutes
1390/1144 01/04/18 - 4 - collateral assign v3
abasse\bank america\artis-clearwater\loan documents
and appoints Bank as its attorney-in-fact to demand, receive and enforce Owner's rights with respect to
the Development Agreement and the TIF Note. Owner agrees to reimburse Bank on demand for any
expenses incurred by Bank, or its agents or attorneys, pursuant to the aforesaid authorization. Owner
hereby irrevocably instructs, directs, authorizes and empowers all parties to the Development Agreement
to recognize the claims of Bank, or its successors or assigns hereunder, and to act upon any instructions or
directions of Bank without investigating the reason for any action taken by Bank.
7. Consent to Loan Documents. Authority consents to the recording of the Mortgage and to
the assignment of the Development Agreement and the TIF Note by Owner to Bank under the terms of
this Assignment.
8. Bank's Option to Assume Development Agreement. Upon the occurrence and
continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may, at its option, notify Authority and Owner in writing that it
has elected to assume the obligations of Owner under the Development Agreement (such notice is
hereinafter referred to as the "Assumption Notice"). Following receipt of the Assumption Notice,
Authority shall treat Bank as if it were the Owner under the Development Agreement, and shall continue
to perform its obligations under the Development Agreement for the benefit of Bank, as long as Bank
continues to perform the obligations of Owner under the Development Agreement. Bank shall not have
any obligation with respect to the Development Agreement unless and until delivery of an Assumption
Notice by Bank to Authority.
9. Subordination of Development Agreement. Regardless of the priority of any rights or
interests otherwise available or belonging to Authority and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set
forth in the Development Agreement, each and every right and interest of Authority in and to the Property
of any kind whatsoever, including without limitation any rights or interests acquired in the Property
pursuant to the Development Agreement, are hereby subjected and subordinated and shall remain in all
respects and for all purposes, subject, subordinate and junior to the provisions of the Mortgage and other
Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement) and to the rights of Bank thereunder and the liens
created thereby. The subordination effected hereby shall extend to any and all advances heretofore or
hereafter made pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents and to any amendment, modification,
extension, replacement or renewal of any of the Loan Documents, including any amendment which
increases the principal amount secured by the Mortgage. If (a) Bank does not elect to give Authority the
Assumption Notice, and (b) Bank forecloses the Mortgage or Owner delivers to Bank a deed in lieu of
foreclosure, then upon the completion of such foreclosure and the expiration of the applicable redemption
period, or upon recording of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, all right, title and interest of Authority in or to
the Property, whether pursuant to the Development Agreement or otherwise, shall terminate automatically
and shall be null and void without the need for the execution or recording of any other documents. If
Bank has provided Authority with the Assumption Notice, then the rights of Authority under the
Development Agreement shall survive foreclosure of the Mortgage or acceptance of a deed in lieu of
foreclosure. Except as specifically agreed to herein, nothing in this Assignment, including a foreclosure
by Bank or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, shall extinguish the Development Agreement as an
agreement between Authority and Owner or limit the rights and remedies of Authority as against Owner.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the rights granted Bank hereunder, including but not limited to
notice and cure rights set forth in Section 5 hereof, if a default shall occur under the Development
Agreement, the Authority shall continue to have the ability to exercise the remedies under Section 9.2 of
the Development Agreement, including the ability to terminate or suspend payments under the TIF Note.
10. Event of Default. As used herein, the term "Event of Default" shall mean the occurrence
of any Event of Default under the Development Agreement, the TIF Note, the Loan Agreement or any
other Loan Documents, or any related documents.
1390/1144 01/04/18 - 5 - collateral assign v3
abasse\bank america\artis-clearwater\loan documents
11. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank may without demand or
performance or other demand, advertisement, or notice of any kind, except such notice as may be required
under the Uniform Commercial Code, and all of which are, to the extent permitted by law, hereby
expressly waived, collect the amounts payable to Owner pursuant to the Development Agreement or the
TIF Note and shall hold such amounts free and clear of the interest of Owner therein and shall be entitled
to own, hold, dispose of and otherwise deal with the amounts payable pursuant to the Development
Agreement and the TIF Note in its own right and name as its own property, or in the name of Owner or
otherwise, exercise any right of Owner to demand, collect, receive and receipt for, compromise,
compound, settle and prosecute and discontinue any suits or proceedings in respect of any or all of the
amounts payable pursuant to the Development Agreement or the TIF Note; take any action that Bank may
deem necessary or desirable in order to collect the amounts payable pursuant to the Development
Agreement and the TIF Note, including, without limitation, the power to perform or direct the
performance by any other party to any contracts which are a part of the Development Agreement; exercise
any of the remedies available to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code and/or to proceed
to protect and enforce this Assignment by suits or proceedings or otherwise; and to enforce any other
legal or equitable remedy available to Bank. The foregoing remedies are cumulative of and in addition to
and are not restrictive of or in lieu of, the rights or remedies provided for or allowed in the Mortgage, the
Loan Documents or any other instrument given for the security of the Project Loan, or as provided for or
allowed by law or in equity.
12. Indemnity. Unless and until Bank delivers an Assumption Notice, Bank shall have no
obligation to perform or satisfy any duty or obligation of Owner under the Development Agreement.
Owner shall and does hereby indemnify, defend and hold Bank harmless from and against and in respect
of any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, demands, judgments, proceedings and investigations
(or any appeal thereof or relative thereto or other review thereof) of any kind or nature whatsoever,
arising out of, by reason of, as a result of or in connection with the Development Agreement or the TIF
Note, and any and all liabilities, damages, losses, costs, expenses (including fees of counsel and expenses
and disbursements of counsel), amounts of judgment, assessments, fines or penalties, and amounts paid in
compromise or settlement, suffered, incurred or sustained by Bank as a result of, or reason of or in
connection with any of the matters above.
13. Uniform Commercial Code. To the extent that this Assignment may be governed by the
provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code now or hereafter in effect, this Assignment shall be deemed
to be a security agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code, shall be governed by the
provisions thereof and shall constitute a grant to Bank of a security interest in the Development
Agreement, the TIF Note (upon its issuance) and the proceeds thereof.
14. Choice of Law; Jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the place of execution of this instrument,
the parties to this Assignment have contracted for Minnesota law to govern this Assignment and it is
agreed that this Assignment is made pursuant to, and shall be construed and governed by, the laws of the
State of Minnesota without regard to the principles of conflicts of law, and the parties hereby submit to
the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of Minnesota for purposes of resolving
disputes under this Assignment.
15. Notices. Any notices and other communications permitted or required by the provisions
of this Assignment (except for telephonic notices expressly permitted) shall be in writing and shall be
