ACQUISITION AND DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT
City of Bakersfield
Assessment District No. 99-2
(Seven Oaks West)
Recitals
A. The parties to this Acquisition and Disclosure Agreement (the
"Agreement") are the City of Bakersfield, a California charter city (the "City"), and Castle &
Cooke California, Inc., a California corporation (the "Developer").
B. The effective date of this Agreement shall be March 15, 2000.
C. The Developer has caused an executed petition to be filed with the City,
requesting the City to implement special assessment proceedings for the purpose of acquiring
certain public improvements (the "Improvements") within or adjacent to the assessment district
(the "Project") to be developed by the Developer. The Improvements consist of certain public
improvements to be constructed by the Developer, as stated in the petition, and said proceedings
are to be taken pursuant to the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 (Sections 10000 and
following, California Streets and Highways Code) (the "1913 Act"), Section 53753 of the
California Government Code, and Bakersfield Municipal Code Section 13.08.070, leading to the
levy and recording of special assessments upon certain prescribed property (the "Assessed
Property") within the Project and with the City to issue and sell limited obligation improvement
bonds (the "Bonds") of the City pursuant to the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 (Sections 8500
and following, California Streets and Highways Code)(the "1915 Act") upon the security of the
unpaid special assessments. The Improvements and the estimated construction costs related
thereto are identified in Exhibit A, attached hereto and by this reference incorporated herein.
DOCSSF1:420951,2
40213-23 SS4
The Assessed Property is shown in Exhibit B, attached hereto and by this reference incorporated
herein. The parties expressly acknowledge that Exhibit A shall be subject to revision after the
effective date of this Agreement to reflect modifications made to the Engineer's Report (as
defined in paragraph D below) at any time in accordance with the 1913 Act, it being the intention
of the parties that Exhibit A shall at all times reflect the corresponding information as set forth in
the Engineer's Report, as the same may be modified from time to time by action of the City
Council. All references hereafter in this Agreement to "Exhibit A" shall be deemed to be
references to Exhibit A as modified from time to time.
D. On March 15, 2000, the City Council of the City approved the boundary
map for the proposed assessment district to be known as "Assessment District No. 99-2 (Seven
Oaks West)" (the "Assessment District"). By its Resolution of Intention No. __ adopted on
March 15, 2000, the City Council appointed the Director of Public Works of the City as the
Engineer of Work for the Assessment District and directed the Engineer of Work to prepare and
file with the City Clerk the written engineer's report (the "Engineer's Report") prescribed by
Section 10204 of the California Streets and Highways Code, as supplemented by Article XIIID
of the California Constitution. Absent circumstances not presently anticipated, it is expected that
the Engineer's Report will be filed with the City Clerk in May, 2000, and the required public
hearing conducted and completed on or about June 14, 2000, and that on the basis of the
information and evidence provided at the hearing, the City Council will approve the Engineer's
Report on said date, whether as originally filed or as modified to incorporate changes deemed
appropriate by the City Council.
E. The City has selected Sutro & Co., Inc. as the investment banldng firm to
act as underwriter (the "Underwriter") of the Bonds, which are to be issued pursuant to the
DOCSSF1:420951.2 ¢'
40213-23 SS4 2 U5
1915 Act, in a principal mount not to eXceed the total amount of assessments which are
proposed to be levied on the Assessed Property, as shall be specified in the Engineer's Report.
Assuming eventual approval of the Engineer's Report and levy and recording of assessments
against the Assessed Property, and upon receipt of bond sale proceeds, if, as and when received
from the Underwriter, the City intends to utilize a prescribed portion of said proceeds of sale in
accordance with and subject to the temps and conditions of this Agreement to acquire from the
Developer completed portions or phases of the Improvements, as summarized in Exhibit A, and
to reimburse the Developer for the Developer's Incidental Construction Expense (defined in
paragraph 8 below).
F. It is understood by the Developer that there may be insufficient funds from
the proceeds of sale of the Bonds to pay the Acquisition Price (as defined in paragraph 6 below)
of completed portions or phases of the Improvements. As used in the foregoing sentence and
elsewhere in this Agreement, the term "proceeds of sale of the Bonds" shall be deemed to
include that portion of the investment earnings on the prescribed amount of such proceeds as are
deposited in the Improvement Fund to be established for the Assessment District pursuant to the
resolution authorizing issuance of the bonds (the "Resolntion"), which portion is not required to
be set aside for rebate to the United States of America pursuant to the provisions of the
Resolution pertaining to such rebate set-aside procedures.
G. For the benefit of purchasers of the respective parcels of land within the
Assessment District, and to assure the City that the special assessment lien obligation is being
fully disclosed to such purchasers, the Developer is willing to agree to obtain from each such
purchaser an executed and acknowledged notice in the form set forth in Exhibit C, attached
hereto and by this reference incorporated herein, to cause such notice to be recorded in the
DOCSSF1:420951.2
40213-23 SS4 3
official records of the County Recorder of the County of Kern, and to file a copy of each such
executed notice with the Finance Director of the City.
H. In consideration for the mutual undertakings of the parties stated herein,
the parties agree as follows:
Agreement
1. The foregoing recitals are tree and correct, and the parties expressly so
acknowledge. Said recitals are incorporated herein by reference.
2. Upon receipt from the Underwriter of a written offer for purchase of the
Bonds satisfactory to the Director of Finance of the City, and upon prior satisfaction of ali other
conditions precedent to bond issuance and delivery as specified herein, the City agrees to
proceed with all due diligence in providing for issuance, sale and delivery of the Bonds. The
Developer expressly acknowledges that the conditional obligation of the City to pay the
Acquisition Price (as defined in paragraph 6 below) for the Improvements is strictly limited to a
portion of the proceeds of sale of the Bonds and to no other source of funds whatsoever and,
further, that the principal mount of the Bonds will be strictly limited in accordance with
paragraph 6 below.
3. The Developer shall provide for its own construction financing,
construction contracting and contract administration for the Improvements. In providing for the
construction and installation of the Improvements, the Developer shall be obligated to meet all
requirements customarily imposed upon subdividers and developers in such circumstances by the
DOCSSF 1:420951.2
40213-23 SS4 4
City and by any other public agency or public utility company having jurisdiction. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Developer shall be obligated as follows:
The Developer shall post completion bonds, labor and materials
bonds, and one-year maintenance bonds in the same manner and in
the same amount as is required by the City and by any other public
agency or public utility company having jurisdiction as would be
required in the absence of assessment proceedings.
DOCSSF1:420951.2
40213-23 SS4
By its offer to transfer ownership of any portion or phase of the
Improvements to the City or other public agency or public utility
having jurisdiction, the Developer shall warrant that said portion or
phase of the Improvements will be free from defects in
workmanship or materials and will be suitable for their intended
use. Said warranty shall extend for a period of one (1) year after
the recording by the City of a notice of completion and acceptance
of work (a "Notice of Completion .and Acceptance of Work") or
for a period of one (1) year from the finalization of a street
construction permit (a "Street Construction Permit"). A Notice
of Completion and Acceptance of Work shall only be issued
pursuant to an improvement agreement (an "Improvement
Agreement"), entered into between the City and the Developer,
for the particular parcel map or tract map under which the
Developer is required to construct the portion or phase of
Improvements in question. Consequently, the Developer
5
understands that the One (1) year warranty period may, in fact,
extend considerably beyond one (1) year after completion of a
particular portion or phase of Improvements completed and
acquired by the City pursuant to this Agreement because the City's
Notice of Completion and Acceptance of Work for any tract or
parcel can be issued only when all of the Improvements required to
be constructed by that Improvement Agreement have been
completed and accepted by the City for the entire tract or parcel in
question. Similarly, a Street Construction Permit may sometimes
be issued for Improvements which are constructed, completed and
deemed ready for acceptance in portions or phases, with the similar
result that the one (1) year warranty period may again extend
beyond one (1) year after completion of a portion or phase of
Improvements has been completed.
DOCSSF 1:420951.2
40213 -23 SS4
In addition to the warranties and obligations of the Developer set
forth in the foregoing subparagraph (b), the Developer shall remain
and shall be responsible to the City for any defects in work,
supplies, or materials in cmmection with the Improvements
occurring or appearing within one (1) year of recording by the City
of its Notice of Completion and Acceptance of Work, as identifted
in the foregoing subparagraph (b) of this Section 3. The City shall
give the Developer written notice to replace, repair or correct any
defect forthwith upon discovery thereof, and the Developer shall
proceed forthwith and with all due diligence to effectuate
replacement, repair or correction of such defect.
4. Subject to the limitation that the obligation of the City to pay the
Acquisition Price (defined in paragraph 6 below) shall be strictly limited to a portion of the
proceeds of sale of the Bonds and to no other source of funds whatsoever, the Developer shall
cause the Improvements to be constructed, and the City shall acquire the Improvements from the
Developer. Construction of the Improvements need not be undertaken in any given sequence,
and discrete portions or phases of the Improvements (as identified in Exhibit A) may be
completed and acquired in phases without the necessity of completion and acquisition of other
portions or phases of the Improvements, provided that the conditions of this paragraph 4 and of
paragraphs 7 and 10 of this Agreement have been satisfied as to such portions or phases of the
Improvements and as to the Assessed Property.
Upon receipt of a Developer's Application and Certificate for Payment
(substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto) (the "Developer's Application"), signed
and stamped by the Developer's engineer, certifying that discrete portions or phases of the
Improvements (as identified in Exhibit A) are complete and ready for acceptance by the City
(said portions or phases of the Improvements to be itemized in said Developer's Application and
to match the description of the Improvements set forth in Exhibit A), the Director of Public
Works of the City or his designee (the "Director") shall review such Developer's Application,
and upon making the determination that such portions or phases of the Improvements (as
identified in Exhibit A) are complete and ready for acceptance (such determination not to be
unreasonably withheld), said Director shall accept said portions or phases of the Improvements
as complete and shall issue a written acknowledgment to that effect (the "Director's
DOCSSF 1:420951.2
40213-23 S84 7
Acknowledgment'); provided that, in reviewing the Developer's Application, the Director shall
apply the City's then current standards for inspection and certification of acceptability of public
improvement work in effect at the time of approval of the applicable improvement plans, unless
a different standard is required by law in which case the legally required standard shall be
applied, and the Developer's Application shall be denied until such standards have been met, as
determined by the Director, such determination not to be unreasonably withheld.
Issuance of the Director's Acknowledgment shall constitute acceptance of such
portions or phases of the Improvements for ownership by the City without the necessity of any
fmther action or documentation, and the date of the Director's Acknowledgment shall constitute
the date of transfer of ownership of the subject portions or phases of the Improvements. The
warranty of the Developer specified by paragraphs 3(b) and 3(c) above shall commence on said
date as to such portions or phases of the Improvements and shall continue for a period of one (1)
year from the date of issuance of the City's Notice of Completion and Acceptance of Work for
the entire tract or parcel in question.
The amount of the Acquisition Price payable to the Developer on account of
acquisition of such portions or phases of the Improvements and the procedure for disbursement
of such Acquisition Price shall be determined in accordance with paragraphs 6 and 7 below in
this Agreement; provided that the Developer expressly acknowledges that the obligation of the
City to pay the Acquisition Price for any portions or phases of the Improvements is strictly
limited to the prescribed portion of the proceeds of sale of the Bonds.
5. The City agrees to use its best efforts to accomplish a public offering and
sale of the Bonds, it being understood that the City intends to accomplish such offering and sale
DOCSSF1:420951.2
40213-23 SS4 8
through a negotiated sale to the Underwriter. The City agrees that the total discount applicable
to such negotiated sale (including both Underwfiter's discount and original issue discount, if
any) shall not exceed the amount specified for "Bond Discount" in the Engineer's Report, as
finally approved by the City Council, and that the Underwriter shall not be entitled to any
allowance for Underwriter's counsel. To enable the City and the Underwriter to prepare an
Official Statement to be utilized in connection with the Underwriter's public offering of the
Bonds, the Developer shall (a)provide such Developer financial information, development
program infom~ation, title reports, appraisal reports, and such other information as the City, the
City's disclosure counsel for the Bonds ("Disclosure Counsel") or the Underwriter may
reasonably consider material in connection with preparing the Official Statement and
determining feasibility and structure of the proposed bond issue and (b) execute a continuing
disclosure undertaking to be prepared by Disclosure Counsel in a form and containing annual
reporting and material event notice requirements which are standard for bond issues such as the
Bonds and are otherwise required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, as determined by
Disclosure Counsel. Except for those reports and information for which an allowance for costs
has been set forth in the Engineer's Report (e.g., appraisal report), such reports and information
shall be provided to the City and to the Underwriter at no cost to either.
6. The Developer expressly acknowledges that the acquisition price to be
paid by the City from bond sale proceeds to acquire the completed Improvements (the
"Acquisition Price") shall be equal to the actual cost to the Developer in constructing the
Improvements, it being expressly understood that the City will limit the principal amount of such
Bonds to an amount not to exceed one-fourth of the appraised fair market value of the Assessed
Property, as established by an appraisal report from an appraiser selected by the City, said
DOCSSF1:420951.2
40213-23 SS4 9
appraisal report to be satisfactory to the City and to the Underwriter. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the City will limit the mount of the assessment lien on any parcel in
the Assessment District to not more than one-third of the appraised fair market value of each
such parcel.
For purposes of calculating the Acquisition Price at actual cost, said actual cost
shall be determined by the Director on the basis of paid invoices, canceled checks and like
documentation of the amounts actually paid by the Developer, it being understood that the
Engineer's Report reflects such actual costs as nearly as is practicable.
7. Following receipt of proceeds of sale of the Bonds, payment by the City to
the Developer of the Acquisition Price for completed portions or phases of the Improvements
shall be made within thirty (30) days of satisfaction of both of the following conditions:
The Director shall have issued the applicable Director's
Acknowledgment, as provided by paragraph 4 above; and
The Developer shall have provided the Director with copies of the
paid invoices, canceled checks and like documentation required by
paragraph 6 above for certification of actual cost of such portions
or phases of the Improvements so as to establish the Acquisition
Price thereof.
In the event the Acquisition Price exceeds the amount of the cost estimate for
such portions or phases of the Improvements, as set forth in the Engineer's Report and
summarized in Exhibit A hereof, the Developer shall nonetheless be paid the amount by which
DOCSSF1:420951.2
40213-23 SS4
the Acquisition Price exceeds the lesser amount set forth in the Engineer's Report and
summarized in Exhibit A hereto, but only (1) if there is a sufficient balance in the contingency
allowance allocated to such portions or phases of the Improvements as set forth in Exhibit A for
such purpose or (2) if, upon completion of all of the Improvements, savings have been achieved
with respect to the Acquisition Price of other portions or phases of the Improvements which
savings remain available for such purpose.
8. In addition to payment to the Developer by the City fi.om the proceeds of
sale of the Bonds of the Acquisition Price of the Improvements, the City shall further reimburse
the Developer, but again only from the proceeds of sale of the Bonds, for the Developer's
Incidental Construction Expense, but only to the extent that allowance for such Developer's
Incidental Construction Expense is made in the Engineer's Report. Such Developer's Incidental
Construction Expense shall include (1) the cost and expense of engineering design of the
Improvements, (2) the cost and expense of administering the construction contract or contracts
for the construction of the Improvements, including construction change orders, (3) fees and
costs incurred in obtaining permits, licenses, and payment and performance bonds, (4) fees and
costs, if any, incurred with respect to acquiring rights-of-way or easements in connection with
the Improvements, (5) fees and costs paid to title insurance companies for title reports, title
insurance, recording services, lien-free endorsements, or escrow services relating to the
Improvements, (6) inspection fees and (7) any similar fees or costs reasonably incurred by the
Developer incidental to the construction of the Improvements or to satisfaction of Developer
obligations imposed by this Agreement; provided that the amount of such reimbursement for
Developer's Incidental Construction Expense shall be limited to the amount available for such
purpose as provided by the Engineer's Report.
DOCSSF 1:420951.2
40213-23 SS4 1 1
Payment of such Developer's Incidental Construction Expense shall be made
within thirty (30) days of receipt by the Director of paid invoices, canceled checks or like
documentation from which to establish the actual amount of such reimbursable Developer's
Incidental Construction Expense.
9. Delivery of the Bonds by the City to the Underwriter shall be expressly
conditioned upon prior satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:
All property taxes and all other amounts collected on the general
property tax roll of Kern County respecting the Assessed Property
shall be paid current and in full (five-year installment payment
plans shall not constitute compliance with this condition).
The final map or maps, lot line adjustments or other authorized
procedures of the City which create or establish the Assessment
District parcels as shown on the assessment diagram shall have
been recorded or, where no recording step is entailed, shall have
been otherwise completed.
10. Payment to the Developer of the Acquisition Price for the completed
Improvements and reimbursement of any portion of the Developer's Incidental Construction
Expense shall be made solely from the applicable portion of the proceeds of sale of the Bonds
and from no other source whatsoever and shall be further expressly conditioned upon prior
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraphs 4 and 7 above and each of the following
additional conditions precedent, to the extent applicable:
DOCSSF1:420951.2
40213-23 SS4 12
The Developer shall have provided the City with executed (and
acknowledged, if appropriate) instruments of transfer of ownership
for any portion or phase of the Improvements (including, if
necessary, the easement, right-of-way, or real property pertaining
thereto) as to which the City reasonably requests such an
instrument; provided that the City shall be obligated to prepare and
provide the Developer with such instrument or instnunents of
transfer of ownership.
The City shall receive from a title company acceptable to the City
a mechanics lien free endorsement or similar documentation
acceptable to the City Attorney, respecting the Assessed Property,
and establishing that the Assessed Property is free and clear of any
form of mechanics lien or claim respecting any portion or phase of
the Improvements which are being acquired by the City with the
bond sale proceeds. It is expressly understood that, by this means,
the City requires this form of assurance that the subject assessment
liens shall apply to the Assessed Property without any threat of
being later deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
subordinate to a mechanics lien claim stemming from any portion
or phase of the subject Improvements.
DOCSSF1:420951.2
40213-23 SS4
All property taxes and all other amounts collected on the general
property tax roll of Kern County respecting the Assessed Property
shall be paid current and in full (five-year installment payment
plans shall not constitute compliance with this condition).
11. The Developer shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend the City and
each of its officers, officials and employees from any and ail claims, demands, actions and
proceedings in law or equity (whether or not well-founded) brought by any person whatsoever,
including the Developer, arising or alleged to have arisen directly or indirectly out of(i) any act,
omission, or contract of the Developer or any of its contractors, subcontractors, materialmen,
suppliers, or employees in connection with construction or installation of the Improvements or
any portion or phase thereof, or (ii) any defects or alleged defects in materials or workmanship in
the Improvements or any portion or phase thereof. The Developer shall not have a duty to
indemnify and hold harmless against any liability, loss, debts, costs or damages caused solely by
the negligence or willful misconduct of the City or to any liability, loss, debts, costs or damages
arising out of events which occurred after expiration of the warranty period provided by
paragraphs 3(b) and 3(c) above.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph 11, the City shall be responsible
for negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement,
and nothing in this paragraph 11 shall be understood or construed to mean that the Developer
agrees to indemnify the City or any of its officials, officers, or employees for any negligence or
willful misconduct of the City, the City's bond counsel for the Bonds ("Bond Counsel"),
Disclosure Counsel, the Underwriter (including any selling group or syndicate member),
Underwriter's counsel, if any, financial advisors, appraisers, assessment engineers, or other
developers, landowners or financing participants, or any of their respective officers, directors, or
employees.

more of the parcels of the Assessed Property to execute and date a Notice of Special Assessment
District Lien, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, appropriately completed with the
pertinent information in the respective blanks on the form, and will cause the executed and
acknowledged notice to be recorded in the official records of the County Recorder of the County
of Kern within five (5) days of the close of escrow for the transfer of title to any such parcel. A
copy of such executed notice shall be filed with the Finance Director of the City.

be responsible for identification of and for compliance with all applicable laws pertaining to the
project of constructing and installing the Improvements and the contract or contracts pertaining

Government Code of the State of California. The City makes no representation as to the
applicability or inapplicability of any laws regarding contracts, including contracts related to the
construction and installation of the Improvements, and especially the matters of competitive
bidding and the payment of prevailing wages. The Developer will neither seek to hold nor hold
the City liable, and pursuant to paragraph 11 shall hold harmless and indemnify the City, each of
its officers, officials and employees for any consequence of any failure by the Developer to
correctly determine applicability of any such requirements to any contract it enters into,
irrespective of whether the City knew or should have known about applicability of any such
requirement. This paragraph shall apply with respect to any enforcement action, whether public
or private, and whether brought by a public enforcement agency or by private civil litigation,
40213-23 SS4 15 I~
