We understand that through a deed in lieu of foreclosure First Bank National Association or an affiliate of First Bank National Association (First Bank National Association and its affiliates are herein referred to as "First Bank"), has become the owner of Apache Plaza Shopping Center ("Apache Plaza") located in the City. The City and the HRA have asked this firm to represent them in connection with matters relating to the proposed redevelopment by First Bank and other parties of Apache Plaza and all regulatory, zoning, licensing and other matters relating to the use and operation by First Bank or other parties of Apache Plaza, including the lease by the City of space in Apache Plaza for operation of a liquor store and restaurant (together, the "Apache Plaza Matters"). It has been proposed that as a part of the proposed redevelopment of Apache Plaza, SUPERVALU will construct a CUB foods store. This firm represents First Bank, SUPERVALU, the City and HRA in other, unrelated matters; however, in matters relating to the Apache Plaza Matters this firm would represent only the City and the HRA and the firm would not represent First Bank or SUPERVALU. In the Apache Plaza Matters, the interests of the City and the HRA and the interests of SUPERVALU and First Bank are potentially or actually adverse for purposes of professional rules. We are writing to ask the City and the HRA to confirm their earlier verbal consents to our representation of the City and the HRA in the Apache Plaza Matters, and to our representations of the City, the HRA, SUPERVALU and First Bank in other matters.
