GRANT AND SUB-GRANT AGREEMENTS WITH THE STATE
WILDLIFE CONSERVATION BOARD (WCB) FOR FUNDS RELATED
TO THE PURCHASE OF REAL PROPERTY IN MALAGA CANYON
FOR THE PURPOSE OF OPEN SPACE CONSERVATION
CAROLYN LEHR, CITY MANAGER ell-
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the Mayor to execute the necessary grant and sub-grant agreements between
the City and the Wildlife Conservation Board (WCB) thereby agreeing to all of the
agreements' terms and conditions related to WCB's $1, 164,500 grantforthe acquisition of
approximately 48 acres of real property in Malaga Canyon.
BACKGROUND
In late 2011, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) notified the City and the Palos
Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy (PVPLC) about the availability of grant monies forthe
acquisition of open space on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. The USFWS noted their desire
to use said funds to preserve additional habitat on the Palos Verdes Peninsula to augment
the City's NCCP Preserve. Thus, working with the USFWS and the State Wildlife
Conservation Board (WCB), City and PVPLC staff identified a number of privately owned
open space properties in the City that contain protected habitat for possible acquisition.
After following up with the owners of all the identified properties, two willing sellers
emerged. Specifically, Dr. Roger Giani (Angeles, LLC) agreed to sell 41.63 acres to the
City for $659,500, and Ya Yi May agreed to sell 16.25 acres to the City for $455,000.
On October 1, 2013, the City Council approved the purchase agreements with the two
willing sellers. On October 29, 2013, the City Council approved a revised purchase
agreement with Dr. Giani.

DISCUSSION
As expected, on November 21, 2013, the California Wildlife Conservation Board (WCB)
allocated two WCB grants and two USFWS Habitat Conservation Planning Acquisition sub-
grants to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes to acquire the properties from the two sellers
described above. More specifically, the acquisition of 41.63 acres from Angeles LLC for
$659,500 is being funded by a $329,750 WCB grant and a $329,750 USFWS sub-grant.
Likewise, the acquisition of 16.25 acres from Ya Yi May for $455,000 is being funded by a
$227,500 WCB grant and a $227,500 USFWS sub-grant. Thus, there are four separate
grant and sub-grant agreements attached to this Staff Report that need to be executed by
the Mayor in order for WCB to disburse the funds to the City.
Similar to other properties that have been acquired by the City with state and federal grant
funds, the agreements require the City to agree that the acquired properties are to be used
solely for the purpose of conserving open space and protecting habitat. Specifically, the
agreements require that the properties be used solely for protecting California gnatcatcher
habitat and potential habitat for other rare species identified in the City's NCCP, restoration
and management, wildlife oriented education and research and for compatible public or
private uses consistent with wildlife habitat conservation and protection.
Both the WCB grant and the USFWS sub-grant contain an exhibit (Exhibit E in the WCB
grant and Exhibit C in the USFWS sub-grant) that sets forth the City's commitment for
management and funding management of the acquired properties. In summary, the City is
committed to managing the properties (and funding said management) itself or enrolling
the properties in the NCCP Preserve in which case management (and funding for said
management) would become the responsibility of the PVPLC. It should be noted that the
PVPLC has already notified the City of its offer to manage the acquired properties if they
are enrolled in the NCCP Preserve. Staff intends to seek Council action on the PVPLC's
management offer sometime after the City takes title to the properties, which is anticipated
to occur by February 2014.
Staff and the City Attorney have reviewed the attached grant and sub-grant agreements
and believe there are ready for execution. Therefore, Staff is recommending that the City
Council authorize the Mayor to execute the grant and sub-grant agreements.

with this Agreement, or (iii) any activity on the Property (including but not limited to
restoration) to cure, correct or otherwise remedy any breach or default of this
Agreement. If the State approves any Mitigation under this paragraph, such
approval shall be for the purposes of this Agreement only. Actual Mitigation
requirements and conditions will be established and enforced by the authorities

6. BREACH AND DEFAULT
6.1. In the event of a breach of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this
Agreement, Grantor shall give written notice to Grantee describing the breach.
Notice shall be deemed given when personally delivered or deposited in the United
States Mail, postage prepaid, or with a reliable over-night courier, addressed to
Grantee at Grantee's address for notices set forth at the beginning of this
Agreement.
6.2. If Grantee does not cure the breach within 90 days of the date a notice of
- 5 -
F-7
breach is given or, if the breach is not curable within said 90-day period, Grantee
does not commence the cure within the 90-day period and diligently pursue it to
completion, then Grantee shall be in default ("Default") under this Agreement.
6.3. Grantee shall also be in Default under this Agreement upon the discovery
that information given to Granter by or on behalf of Grantee under or in connection
with obtaining this Agreement was materially false or misleading. Notice of a
Default under this Section 6.3 shall be given in accordance with Section 6.1.
7. REMEDIES
In the event of a Default under this Agreement, in addition to any and all remedies
available at law or in equity, Granter shall have the following remedies:
7.1. Granter may seek specific performance of this Agreement. Grantee agrees
that payment by Grantee to Granter of an amount equal to the Grant Funds
disbursed under this Agreement would be inadequate compensation to Granter for
any .Default because the benefit to be derived by Granter from full compliance by
Grantee with the terms of this Agreement is protecting California gnatcatcher habitat
and potential habitat for the Palos Verdes butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and
other rare species found within and adjacent to the Rancho Palos Verdes Natural
Community Conservation Plan and Habitat Conservation Plan (NCCP/ HCP) area,
wildlife habitat preservation, restoration and management, wildlife-oriented
education and research, and compatible public or private uses, all as may be
consistent with wildlife habitat preservation and protection of sensitive biological
resources and because such benefit exceeds to an immeasurable and
unascertainable extent the amount of money furnished by Granter by way of Grant
Funds under this Agreement.
7.2. Granter may require Grantee to convey a conservation easement over the
Property in favor of Granter (or, at the election of Granter, another entity or
organization authorized by California law to acquire and hold conservation
easements and that is willing and financially able to assume all of the obligations of
Grantee), and to pay a sum to Granter which, when combined with the fair market
value of the conservation easement, equals the sum granted to Grantee pursuant to
this Agreement, together with interest compounded semi-annually starting from the
date of this Agreement to and including the date of payment, at a rate equivalent to
that which is being earned at the time of Default on deposits in the State of
California's Pooled Money Investment Account. The conservation easement shall
be for the purposes of protecting California gnatcatcher habitat and potential habitat
for the Palos Verdes butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and other rare species found
within and adjacent to the Rancho Palos Verdes Natural Community Conservation
Plan and Habitat Conservation Plan (NCCP/ HCP) area wildlife habitat preservation,
restoration and management, wildlife-oriented education and research, and for
compatible public or private uses, all as may be consistent with wildlife habitat
preservation and protection of sensitive biological resources. The value of the
conservation easement shall be determined by a fair market value appraisal that is
conducted by an appraiser who is licensed pursuant to Part 3 (commencing with
Section 11300) of Division 4 of the Business and Professions Code and acceptable
to Granter. The appraisal shall be prepared pursuant to USPAP and, if required by
law, approved by the Department of General Services.
- 6 -
F-8
7.3. Despite the contrary provisions of Article 6 of this Agreement, if Granter
determines that circumstances require immediate action to prevent or mitigate
interference with the Purposes of Grant arising from a breach of this Agreement,
then Granter may pursue its remedies without waiting for the period provided for
cure to expire.
8. NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION GRANTEE
If Grantee is a nonprofit organization and the existence of Grantee is terminated for
any reason, title to all interest in real property acquired with state funds shall immediately
vest in the State of California. However, prior to that termination, upon approval of
Granter, another public agency or nonprofit organization may receive title to all or a portion
of that interest in real property by recording its acceptance of title in writing. Any deed or
other instrument of conveyance whereby real property is being acquired by a nonprofit
organization pursuant to this Section 8 shall be recorded and shall set forth the executory
interest or right of entry on the part of the State of California.
9. TERM
9.1. This Agreement shall be deemed executed and effective when signed by an
authorized representative of each party and received in the respective offices of
Grantee and Granter, together with the resolution described in Section 3.3 (the
"Effective Date"). Grantee and Granter shall each sign two original Agreements.
Grantee shall receive one completely executed original and Granter shall receive
one completely executed original.
9.2. The term of this Agreement will commence on the date authorized by the
Wildlife Conservation Board, as set forth in Section 16 and, unless previously
terminated as provided in Section 9.3, will expire on November 21, 2014, if escrow
has not closed by that date.
9.3. Prior to Grantee's close of escrow for acquisition of the Property, either party
may terminate this Agreement for any reason or for no reason, by providing the
other party with not less than 15 days written notice of such termination. If this
Agreement is terminated after Grantor's deposit of the Grant Funds into escrow but
before close of escrow for Grantee's acquisition of the Property, Grantee shall
cause the escrow holder to immediately return all Grant Funds to Granter and
Grantee shall bear all costs and expenses of such termination.
9.4. The provisions of this Agreement that are not fully performed as of the close
of escrow, including but not limited to Section 2 (Purposes of Grant) and Section 5
(Grantee's Covenants), shall survive the close of escrow for Grantee's acquisition of
the Property and remain in full force and effect.
10. LIABILITY; MODIFICATIONS; INTERPRETATION

designee, successor or assignee as may be approved by Granter.

this Agreement are severable.
10.5. Grantee, its officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, is
each acting in an independent capacity in entering into and carrying out this
Agreement, and not as a partner, member, director, officer, agent, employee or
representative of Granter.

entitled to the share of the Award (as defined below) which equals the ratio of the Grant
Funds provided by Grantor to the purchase price Grantee paid to acquire the Property
(e.g., if Grantor provided $50,000.00 of Grant Funds and the purchase price was
$75,000.00, then Grantor would be entitled to two-thirds of the Award). For purposes of
this Agreement, the "Award" shall mean all compensation awarded, paid or received on

grant program; and
13.4. If Grantee makes expenditures to assist, promote or deter union organizing,
Grantee will maintain records sufficient to show that no state funds were used for
those expenditures, and that Grantee shall provide those records to the Attorney
General upon request.

orientation, or use of family-care leave, medical-care leave, or pregnancy-disability leave.

into this Agreement. Grantee shall give written notice of its obligations under this non-
discrimination clause to labor organizations with which Grantee has a collective bargaining

applicants for employment, notice setting forth the provisions of this section. Grantee shall
also include the nondiscrimination and compliance provisions of this Agreement in all
contracts related to the Project.

Conservation Board (WCB) as follows:
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes is the agency responsible for ensuring the preservation
and management of lands acquired pursuant to the Rancho Palos Verdes Natural
Community Conservation Plan/Habitat Conservation Plan (NCCP/HCP). Permanent
Habitat Protection Measures ("Prepare and Implement Preserve Management Plans for
Natural Habitat Lands") identified in the NCCP/HCP commit the Grantee to ensuring
permanent protection of conserved lands dedicated to the NCCP/HCP Preserve through
recorded conservation easements. Section 5.9.1 of the NCCP/HCP provides the Grantee
with the ability to cooperate with other entities to acquire and manage lands pursuant to
the NCCP/HCP.
Grantee is a party to an agreement for preparing the NCCP/HCP and is anticipated to be a
primary owner and manager of lands acquired pursuant to the NCCP/HCP. If the Property
is enrolled in the NCCP/HCP, Grantee will be the owner and the Palos Verdes Peninsula
Land Conservancy (PVPLC) will be the manager of the Property (as defined in the
Agreement). Grantee owns and the PVPLC manages approximately 1,400 acres of land in
the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, much of which is similar in character and management
need to the lands to be acquired pursuant to the Agreement.
Grantee hereby commits to manage and fund the management of the Property (as defined
in the Agreement) located in the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, Los Angeles County,
California, in perpetuity or to dedicate the Property to the NCCP/HCP in which case the
PVPLC will manage and fund the management of the Property according to the provisions
of the NCCP/HCP for managing preserved lands in perpetuity, consistent with the following
Purposes of grant:
"''protecting California gnatcatcher habitat and potential habitat for the Palos Verdes
butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and other rare species found within and adjacent to the
Ocean Trails Habitat Conservation Plan (OC HCP) area"
Specific management actions for the Property are not known at this time. Grantee is in the
process of developing a Preserve Management Plan for the Property. Management
actions could include enrolling the property into the NCCP/HCP, in which case
management of the Property would be carried out by the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land
F-53
Conservancy (PVPLC) in accordance with the management responsibilities required by the
NCCP/HCP. Anticipated costs of land management activities under the NCCP/HCP are set
forth in Table A which is provided in Appendix G.
In furtherance of the commitment set forth above, and in order to manage the property
consistent with the Purposes of this grant, if the Property is enrolled in the NCCP/HCP,
Grantee or the PVPLC will fund management in perpetuity consistent with the funding plan
established in Section 4.3 of the NCCP/HCP.
Grantee makes this Commitment with the understanding that if WCB enters into the
Agreement and funds (as defined in the Agreement) to Grantee, WCB will do so in reliance
on this Commitment.

and plants which are resident in the State of California.
1.2. USFWS has approved the Application for Federal Assistance submitted by
CDFW, F09AP00380 [E-30-HL-4] (the "Federal Grant Application"), for Cooperative
Endangered Species Conservation Fund (Section 6 of the Federal Endangered Species
Act) Grant Program funding ("Federal Grant Funds") to facilitate the acquisition of real
property identified in the Federal Grant Application. The Notice of Federal Assistance
Approval for F09AP00380 [E-30-HL-4] (the "Federal Approval Notice") which USFWS
issued to CDFW specifies terms of acceptance of the Federal Grant Funds. CDFW and
USFWS have entered into a Grant Agreement for Grant No. F09AP00380 [E-30-HL-4],
Grant Title: 2009 Ocean Trails HCP-Rancho Palos Verdes Land Acquisition Grant (the
"Federal Grant Agreement") which specifies additional terms and conditions of the grant
of Federal Grant Funds. The Federal Approval Notice and Federal Grant Agreement,
including the terms and conditions set forth or incorporated directly or by reference in
either or both of these instruments, are referred to in this Subgrant Agreement
("Agreement") individually and collectively as the "Federal Assistance Requirements".
1.3. Subgrantee has entered into an Agreement of Purchase and Sale of Real
Property to purchase the Property described in Section 3.1 of this Agreement, which
Property is a portion of the real property identified in the Federal Grant Application.
Subgrantee has requested a subgrant of Federal Grant Funds from CDFW, acting
through the Wildlife Conservation Board ("WCB"), to facilitate Subgrantee's acquisition
of the Property (the "Acquisition").
1.4. USFWS will permit CDFW, acting through WCB, to subgrant Federal
Grant Funds to Subgrantee for the purpose of the Acquisition upon and subject to the
Federal Assistance Requirements and the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement.
1.5. USFWS requires that non-federal funds equal to fifty percent (50%) of the
total estimated program costs, as set forth in the Federal Grant Application, must be
provided as a match for the Federal Grant Funds.
1.6. Concurrently with this Agreement, WCB and Subgrantee have entered
into Grant Agreement No. WC-1325BG, pursuant to which WCB agrees to grant to
Subgrantee the entire non-federal share of funding for the Acquisition.
2. SCOPE OF AGREEMENT
2.1. Pursuant to Chapter 4 of Division 2 (commencing with Section 1300) of
the California Fish and Game Code, WCB hereby subgrants to Subgrantee Federal
Grant Funds in a sum not to exceed Three Hundred Twenty-Nine Thousand Seven
2
F-57
Hundred Fifty Dollars ($329,750.00) (the "Subgrant Funds"), upon and subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement.

006 (portion), located in the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, California (the "Property").
The Property is more particularly described in Exhibit A attached to this Agreement.
3.2. Subgrantee covenants and agrees that if WCB requests disbursement of
the Subgrant Funds and Subgrantee acquires the Property, the Property shall be held
and used for the purposes of ''protecting California gnatcatcher habitat and potential
habitat for the Palos Verdes butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and other rare species
found within and adjacent to the Ocean Trails Habitat Conservation Plan (OC HCP)
area" (individually and collectively, the "Purposes of Subgrant").

F-59
j. Subgrantee shall have deposited, or caused to be deposited, into
the Escrow all funds beyond those granted under this Agreement that are
needed for Subgrantee to complete the Acquisition.
k. WCB shall have confirmed that the non-Federal share of funding
required for the Acquisition has been provided.
5. DISBURSEMENT PROCEDURE

6
F-61
h. Subgrantee shall record or cause to be recorded, concurrently with
close of escrow for the purchase of the Property, a Notice of Unrecorded
Subgrant Agreement (the "Notice"), incorporating by reference this Agreement
and giving public notice that Subgrantee received funds under this Agreement in
order to assist Subgrantee in acquiring the Property and that, in consideration for
the receipt of the Subgrant Funds, Subgrantee has agreed to the terms of this
Agreement. The Notice shall be in the form of Exhibit G.
i. Subgrantee shall provide to WCB, promptly following the close of
escrow, a conformed copy of the recorded deed(s) and Notice, with all recording
information set forth thereon, as well as a copy of the final Escrow closing or

such other documents related to the closing of the Acquisition as requested by
WCB. These documents shall become part of the project file maintained by
WCB. Upon receipt of the above documents from Subgrantee, WCB will provide
USFWS with a copy of all documents for their files.
j. At the request of WCB, not less than once in any period of three
calendar years, Subgrantee shall allow designated staff or representatives of
WCB, CDFW and USFWS to access the Property to assess compliance with the
terms, covenants, and conditions of this Agreement. Provided, however, that if
more frequent access is necessary to comply with applicable federal
requirements (including, but not limited to, 50 C.F.R. Section 81.13) then
Subgrantee shall allow designated staff or representatives of WCB, CDFW and
USFWS access to the Property at such intervals as WCB, CDFW or USFWS
considers appropriate to meet federal requirements to which it is subject.
k. Subgrantee agrees to ensure that the terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall be taken into account when calculating the Baseline/Business

establishment.
7. BREACH AND DEFAULT
7.1. In the event of a breach of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of
this Agreement, WCB shall give written notice to Subgrantee, describing the breach.
Notice shall be deemed given when personally delivered or deposited in the United
States Mail, postage prepaid, or with a reliable over-night courier, addressed to
Subgrantee at Subgrantee's address for notices set forth at the beginning of this
Agreement (or such changed address of which Subgrantee has notified WCB in writing
pursuant to this Agreement).
7.2. If Subgrantee does not cure the breach within 90 days of the date a notice
of breach is given or, if the breach is not curable within said 90-day period, Subgrantee
7
F-62
does not commence the cure within the 90-day period and diligently pursue it to
completion, then Subgrantee shall be in default ("Default") under this Agreement.
7.3. Subgrantee shall also be in Default under this Agreement upon the
discovery that information given to WCB by or on behalf of Subgrantee under or in
connection with obtaining this Agreement was materially false or misleading. Notice of
a Default under this Section 7.3 shall be given in accordance with Section 7.1.
8. REMEDIES
In the event of a Default under this Agreement, in addition to any and all
remedies available at law or in equity, WCB shall have the following remedies:
8.1. WCB may seek specific performance of this Agreement. Subgrantee
agrees that payment by Subgrantee to WCB of an amount equal to the Subgrant Funds
disbursed under this Agreement would be inadequate compensation for any Default
because the benefit to be derived from full compliance by Subgrantee with the terms of
this Agreement is to protect California gnatcatcher habitat and potential habitat for the
Palos Verdes butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and other rare species found within and
adjacent to the Ocean Trails Habitat Conservation Plan (OC HCP) area and because
such benefit exceeds to an immeasurable and unascertainable extent the amount of
money furnished by way of Subgrant Funds under this Agreement.
8.2. WCB may require Subgrantee to convey a conservation easement over
the Property in favor of the State or, at the election of WCB, another entity or
organization authorized by California law to acquire and hold conservation easements.
Furthermore, WCB may also require Subgrantee to pay a sum to WCB which, when
combined with the fair market value of the conservation easement, equals the amount
of Subgrant Funds provided by this Agreement, together with interest compounded
semi-annually starting from the date of disbursement of the Subgrant Funds to the State
Treasurer's Office to and including the date of payment, at a rate equivalent to the
higher of (a) that which is being earned at the time of Default on deposits in the State of
California's Pooled Money Investment Account or (b) the applicable rate of interest
under the Federal Assistance Requirements. The conservation easement shall be for
the purpose of protecting California gnatcatcher habitat and potential habitat for the
Palos Verdes butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and other rare species found within and
adjacent to the Ocean Trails Habitat Conservation Plan (OC HCP) area. The value of
the conservation easement shall be determined by an appraisal that is conducted by an
appraiser who is licensed pursuant to Part 3 (commencing with Section 11300) of
Division 4 of the Business and Professions Code and acceptable to WCB. The
appraisal shall be prepared pursuant to UASFLA and USPAP and approved by DGS.
8.3. Intentionally Left Blank.
8.4. Despite the contrary provisions of Article 7 of this Agreement, if WCB
determines that circumstances require immediate action to prevent or mitigate
interference with the Purposes of Subgrant or other irreparable harm arising from a
8
F-63
breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, then WCB may pursue its remedies
without waiting for the period provided for cure to expire.
8.5. CDFW, as the grantee under the Federal Grant Agreement, shall be an
express third-party beneficiary of this Agreement and shall have the same rights and
remedies as WCB in the event of a breach or Default by Subgrantee.
9. NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION SUBGRANTEE
9.1. If Subgrantee is a nonprofit organization and the existence of Subgrantee
is terminated for any reason, title to all interest in the Property acquired with Subgrant
Funds shall immediately vest in the State. However, prior to that termination, upon
approval of the State, acting through the Executive Director of WCB or its successor,
another public agency or nonprofit organization may receive title to all or a portion of
that interest in the Property by recording its acceptance of title in writing. Any deed or
other instrument of conveyance whereby the Property or any interest in it is being
acquired by a nonprofit organization pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be recorded and
shall set forth the executory interest or right of entry on the part of the State.

be given in the same manner as specified in Section 7.1. If this Agreement is terminated
after the deposit of the Subgrant Funds into Escrow but before close of escrow for
Subgrantee's acquisition of the Property, Subgrantee shall cause the escrow holder to
immediately return all Subgrant Funds to (or as instructed by) WCB and Subgrantee

an Indemnified Party for Claims caused by the negligent or wrongful act of that

Commitment for Management and Funding
The undersigned is the Mayor of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, the Subgrantee,
under the California Wildlife Conservation Board Subgrant Agreement for Acquisition of
Fee Interest (Agreement) of which this Exhibit C forms a part. Subgrantee hereby
commits to the Wildlife Conservation Board (WCB) as follows:
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes is the agency responsible for ensuring the
preservation and management of lands acquired pursuant to the Rancho Palos Verdes
Natural Community Conservation Plan/Habitat Conservation Plan (NCCP/HCP).
Permanent Habitat Protection Measures ("Prepare and Implement Preserve
Management Plans for Natural Habitat Lands") identified in the NCCP/HCP commit the
Subgrantee to ensuring permanent protection of conserved lands dedicated to the
NCCP/HCP Preserve through recorded conservation easements. Section 5.9.1 of the
NCCP/HCP provides the Subgrantee with the ability to cooperate with other entities to
acquire and manage lands pursuant to the NCCP/HCP.
Subgrantee is a party to an agreement for preparing the NCCP/HCP and is anticipated
to be a primary owner and manager of lands acquired pursuant to the NCCP/HCP. If the
Property is enrolled in the NCCP/HCP, Subgrantee will be the owner and the Palos
Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy (PVPLC) will be the manager of the Property (as
defined in the Agreement). Subgrantee owns and the PVPLC manages approximately
1,400 acres of land in the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, much of which is similar in
character and management need to the lands to be acquired pursuant to the
Agreement.
Subgrantee hereby commits to manage and fund the management of the Property (as
defined in the Agreement) located in the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, Los Angeles
County, California, in perpetuity or to dedicate the Property to the NCCP/HCP in which
case the PVPLC will manage and fund the management of the Property according to
the provisions of the NCCP/HCP for managing preserved lands in perpetuity, consistent
with the following Purposes of Subgrant:
"protecting California gnatcatcher habitat and potential habitat for the Palos Verdes
butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and other rare species found within and adjacent to
the Ocean Trails Habitat Conservation Plan (OC HCP) area"
Specific management actions for the Property are not known at this time. Subgrantee is
in the process of developing a Preserve Management Plan for the Property.
Management actions could include enrolling the property into the NCCP/HCP, in which
case management of the Property would be carried out by the Palos Verdes Peninsula
Land Conservancy (PVPLC) in accordance with the management responsibilities
required by the NCCP/HCP. Anticipated costs of land management activities under the
NCCP/HCP are set forth in Table A which is provided in Appendix G.
F-87
In furtherance of the commitment set forth above, and in order to manage the property
consistent with the Purposes of this Subgrant, if the Property is enrolled in the
NCCP/HCP, Subgrantee or the PVPLC will fund management in perpetuity consistent
with the funding plan established in Section 4.3 of the NCCP/HCP.
Subgrantee makes this Commitment with the understanding that if WCB enters into the
Agreement and subgrants Federal Grant Funds (as defined in the Agreement) to
Successor Subgrantee, WCB will do so in reliance on this Commitment.

6. BREACH AND DEFAULT
6.1. In the event of a breach of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this
Agreement, Granter shall give written notice to Grantee describing the breach.
Notice shall be deemed given when personally delivered or deposited in the United
States Mail, postage prepaid, or with a reliable over-night courier, addressed to
Grantee at Grantee's address for notices set forth at the beginning of this
Agreement.
6.2. If Grantee does not cure the breach within 90 days of the date a notice of
-5-
F-100
breach is given or, if the breach is not curable within said 90-day period, Grantee
does not commence the cure within the 90-day period and diligently pursue it to
completion, then Grantee shall be in default ("Default") under this Agreement.
6.3. Grantee shall also be in Default under this Agreement upon the discovery
that information given to Grantor by or on behalf of Grantee under or in connection
with obtaining this Agreement was materially false or misleading. Notice of a
Default under this Section 6.3 shall be given in accordance with Section 6.1.
7. REMEDIES
In the event of a Default under this Agreement, in addition to any and all remedies
available at law or in equity, Grantor shall have the following remedies:
7.1. Grantor may seek specific performance of this Agreement. Grantee agrees
that payment by Grantee to Grantor of an amount equal to the Grant Funds
disbursed under this Agreement would be inadequate compensation to Grantor for
any. Default because the benefit to be derived by Grantor from full compliance by
Grantee with the terms of this Agreement is protecting California gnatcatcher habitat
and potential habitat for the Palos Verdes butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and
other rare species found within and adjacent to the Rancho Palos Verdes Natural
Community Conservation Plan and Habitat Conservation Plan (NCCP/ HCP) area,
wildlife habitat preservation, restoration and management, wildlife-oriented
education and research, and compatible public or private uses, all as may be
consistent with wildlife habitat preservation and protection of sensitive biological
resources and because such benefit exceeds to an immeasurable and
unascertainable extent the amount of money furnished by Grantor by way of Grant
Funds under this Agreement.
7.2. Grantor may require Grantee to convey a conservation easement over the
Property in favor of Grantor (or, at the election of Grantor, another entity or
organization authorized by California law to acquire and hold conservation
easements and that is willing and financially able to assume all of the obligations of
Grantee), and to pay a sum to Grantor which, when combined with the fair market
value of the conservation easement, equals the sum granted to Grantee pursuant to
this Agreement, together with interest compounded semi-annually starting from the
date of this Agreement to and including the date of payment, at a rate equivalent to
that which is being earned at the time of Default on deposits in the State of
California's Pooled Money Investment Account. The conservation easement shall
be for the purposes of protecting California gnatcatcher habitat and potential habitat
for the Palos Verdes butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and other rare species found
within and adjacent to the Rancho Palos Verdes Natural Community Conservation
Plan and Habitat Conservation Plan (NCCP/ HCP) area wildlife habitat preservation,
restoration and management, wildlife-oriented education and research, and for
compatible public or private uses, all as may be consistent with wildlife habitat
preservation and protection of sensitive biological resources. The value of the
conservation easement shall be determined by a fair market value appraisal that is
conducted by an appraiser who is licensed pursuant to Part 3 (commencing with
Section 11300) of Division 4 of the Business and Professions Code and acceptable
to Grantor. The appraisal shall be prepared pursuant to USPAP and, if required by
law, approved by the Department of General Services.
-6-
F-101
7.3. Despite the contrary provisions of Article 6 of this Agreement, if Grantor
determines that circumstances require immediate action to prevent or mitigate
interference with the Purposes of Grant arising from a breach of this Agreement,
then Grantor may pursue its remedies without waiting for the period provided for
cure to expire.
8. NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION GRANTEE
If Grantee is a nonprofit organization and the existence of Grantee is terminated for
any reason, title to all interest in real property acquired with state funds shall immediately
vest in the State of California. However, prior to that termination, upon approval of
Grantor, another public agency or nonprofit organization may receive title to all or a portion
of that interest in real property by recording its acceptance of title in writing. Any deed or
other instrument of conveyance whereby real property is being acquired by a nonprofit
organization pursuant to this Section 8 shall be recorded and shall set forth the executory
interest or right of entry on the part of the State of California.
9. TERM
9.1. This Agreement shall be deemed executed and effective when signed by an
authorized representative of each party and received in the respective offices of
Grantee and Grantor, together with the resolution described in Section 3.3 (the
"Effective Date"). Grantee and Grantor shall each sign two original Agreements.
Grantee shall receive one completely executed original and Granter shall receive
one completely executed original.
9.2. The term of this Agreement will commence on the date authorized by the
Wildlife Conservation Board, as set forth in Section 16 and, unless previously
terminated as provided in Section 9.3, will expire on November 21, 2014, if escrow

may terminate this Agreement for any reason or for no reason, by providing the
other party with not less than 15 days written notice of such termination. If this

before close of escrow for Grantee's acquisition of the Property, Grantee shall
cause the escrow holder to immediately return all Grant Funds to Granter and
Grantee shall bear all costs and expenses of such termination.
9.4. The provisions of this Agreement that are not fully performed as of the close
of escrow, including but not limited to Section 2 (Purposes of Grant) and Section 5
(Grantee's Covenants), shall survive the close of escrow for Grantee's acquisition of
the Property and remain in full force and effect.

Commitment for Management and Funding
The undersigned is the Mayor of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, the Grantee, under the
California Wildlife Conservation Board Grant Agreement for Acquisition of Fee Interest
(Agreement) of which this Exhibit E forms a part. Grantee hereby commits to the Wildlife
Conservation Board (WCB) as follows:
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes is the agency responsible for ensuring the preservation
and management of lands acquired pursuant to the Rancho Palos Verdes Natural
Community Conservation Plan/Habitat Conservation Plan (NCCP/HCP). Permanent
Habitat Protection Measures ("Prepare and Implement Preserve Management Plans for
Natural Habitat Lands") identified in the NCCP/HCP commit the Grantee to ensuring
permanent protection of conserved lands dedicated to the NCCP/HCP Preserve through
recorded conservation easements. Section 5.9.1 of the NCCP/HCP provides the Grantee
with the ability to cooperate with other entities to acquire and manage lands pursuant to
the NCCP/HCP.
Grantee is a party to an agreement for preparing the NCCP/HCP and is anticipated to be a
primary owner and manager of lands acquired pursuant to the NCCP/HCP. If the Property
is enrolled in the NCCP/HCP, Grantee will be the owner and the Palos Verdes Peninsula
Land Conservancy (PVPLC) will be the manager of the Property (as defined in the
Agreement). Grantee owns and the PVPLC manages approximately 1,400 acres of land in
the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, much of which is similar in character and management
need to the lands to be acquired pursuant to the Agreement.
Grantee hereby commits to manage and fund the management of the Property (as defined
in the Agreement) located in the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, Los Angeles County,
California, in perpetuity or to dedicate the Property to the NCCP/HCP in which case the
PVPLC will manage and fund the management of the Property according to the provisions
of the NCCP/HCP for managing preserved lands in perpetuity, consistent with the following
Purposes of grant:
"''protecting California gnatcatcher habitat and potential habitat for the Palos Verdes
butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and other rare species found within and adjacent to the
Ocean Trails Habitat Conservation Plan (OC HCP) area"
Specific management actions for the Property are not known at this time. Grantee is in the
process of developing a Preserve Management Plan for the Property. Management
actions could include enrolling the property into the NCCP/HCP, in which case
management of the Property would be carried out by the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land
F-130
Conservancy (PVPLC) in accordance with the management responsibilities required by the
NCCP/HCP. Anticipated costs of land management activities under the NCCP/HCP are set
forth in Table A which is provided in Appendix G.
In furtherance of the commitment set forth above, and in order to manage the property
consistent with the Purposes of this grant, if the Property is enrolled in the NCCP/HCP,
Grantee or the PVPLC will fund management in perpetuity consistent with the funding plan
established in Section 4.3 of the NCCP/HCP.
Grantee makes this Commitment with the understanding that if WCB enters into the
Agreement and funds (as defined in the Agreement) to Grantee, WCB will do so in reliance
on this Commitment.

1. BACKGROUND
1.1. The U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service ("USFWS")
and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife ("CDFW") have entered into a
Cooperative Agreement for the benefit of endangered, threatened and rare fish, wildlife
and plants which are resident in the State of California.
1.2. USFWS has approved the Application for Federal Assistance submitted by
CDFW, F09AP00380 [E-30-HL-4] (the "Federal Grant Application"), for Cooperative
Endangered Species Conservation Fund (Section 6 of the Federal Endangered Species
Act) Grant Program funding ("Federal Grant Funds") to facilitate the acquisition of real
property identified in the Federal Grant Application. The Notice of Federal Assistance
Approval for F09AP00380 [E-30-HL-4] (the "Federal Approval Notice") which USFWS
issued to CDFW specifies terms of acceptance of the Federal Grant Funds. CDFW and
USFWS have entered into a Grant Agreement for Grant No. F09AP00380 [E-30-HL-4],
Grant Titfe: 2009 Ocean Trails HCP-Rancho Palos Verdes Land Acquisition Grant (the
"Federal Grant Agreement") which specifies additional terms and conditions of the grant
of Federal Grant Funds. The Federal Approval Notice and Federal Grant Agreement,
including the terms and conditions set forth or incorporated directly or by reference in
either or both of these instruments, are referred to in this Subgrant Agreement
("Agreement") individually and collectively as the "Federal Assistance Requirements".
1.3. Subgrantee has entered into an Agreement of Purchase and Sale of Real
Property to purchase the Property described in Section 3.1 of this Agreement, which
Property is a portion of the real property identified in the Federal Grant Application.
Subgrantee has requested a subgrant of Federal Grant Funds from CDFW, acting
through the Wildlife Conservation Board ("WCB"), to facilitate Subgrantee's acquisition
of the Property (the "Acquisition").
1.4. USFWS will permit CDFW, acting through WCB, to subgrant Federal
Grant Funds to Subgrantee for the purpose of the Acquisition upon and subject to the
Federal Assistance Requirements and the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement.
1.5. USFWS requires that non-federal funds equal to fifty percent (50%) of the
total estimated program costs, as set forth in the Federal Grant Application, must be
provided as a match for the Federal Grant Funds.
1.6. Concurrently with this Agreement, WCB and Subgrantee have entered
into Grant Agreement No. WC-1324BG, pursuant to which WCB agrees to grant to
Subgrantee the entire non-federal share of funding for the Acquisition.
2. SCOPE OF AGREEMENT
2.1. Pursuant to Chapter 4 of Division 2 (commencing with Section 1300) of
the California Fish and Game Code, WCB hereby subgrants to Subgrantee Federal
Grant Funds in a sum not to exceed Two Hundred Twenty-Seven Thousand Five
2
F-134
Hundred Dollars ($227,500.00) (the "Subgrant Funds"), upon and subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement.
3. PURPOSES OF SUBGRANT
3.1. WCB is entering into this Agreement, and the Subgrant Funds shall be
used, only for the purpose of facilitating Subgrantee's purchase of fee title to
approximately 16± acres of land known as the Ya Yi May property and designated
Assessor's Parcel No(s). 7578-003-004 and 7578-003-007, located in the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes, California (the "Property"). The Property is more particularly
described in Exhibit A attached to this Agreement.
3.2. Subgrantee covenants and agrees that if WCB requests disbursement of
the Subgrant Funds and Subgrantee acquires the Property, the Property shall be held
and used for the purposes of ''protecting California gnatcatcher habitat and potential
habitat for the Palos Verdes butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and other rare species
found within and adjacent to the Ocean Trails Habitat Conservation Plan (OC HCP)
area" (individually and collectively, the "Purposes of Subgrant").

j. Subgrantee shall have deposited, or caused to be deposited, into
the Escrow all funds beyond those granted under this Agreement that are

6. SUBGRANTEE'S COVENANTS
6.1. In consideration of the subgrant of the Subgrant Funds, Subgrantee
hereby covenants and agrees as follows:
a. The Subgrant Funds shall be used as purchase money only, which
excludes escrow and title fees and any other fees and costs incurred to
accomplish the transaction and the conveyance and acquisition of the Property.
b. The Property shall be held and used only in a manner that is
consistent with this Agreement, including the "Purposes of Subgrant" set forth in
Section 3.2.
c. The Property shall be set aside in perpetuity for the purposes of
co~servation, including the Purposes of Subgrant.
d. Subgrantee shall comply with the terms and conditions of the award
of Federal Grant Funds to CDFW, to the extent such terms and conditions are
applicable to Subgrantee, the Subgrant Funds or the Property. Such terms and
conditions are contained in the Federal Assistance Requirements.
e. Subgrantee shall recognize the cooperative nature of the
Acquisition and shall provide credit to WCB, CDFW, USFWS, and any other
contributor on signs, demonstrations, promotional materials, advertisements,
publications or exhibits prepared or approved by Subgrantee which reference the
Acquisition. Subject to the mutual agreement of WCB and Subgrantee regarding
text, design and location, Subgrantee shall post sign(s) on the Property to
indicate the participation of WCB, CDFW and USFWS in Subgrantee's purchase
of the Property; provided however, that the sign(s) shall display the logo of WCB,
as shown on Exhibit F.
f. The Property (including any portion of it or any interest in it) shall
not be sold, transferred, exchanged, or otherwise conveyed without the written
approval of the State of California (the "State"), acting through the Executive
Director of WCB, or its successor, and USFWS (to the extent required pursuant
to the Federal Assistance Requirements). The State shall not unreasonably
withhold its approval as long as the Property shall continue to be held and used
only in a manner consistent with this Agreement, including but not limited to
Sections 6.1 (b) and (c), and each successor-in-interest assumes and agrees in
a writing reasonably acceptable to the State to be bound by the terms, covenants
and conditions of this Agreement.
g. The Property (including any portion of it or interest in it) may not be
used as security for any debt without the written approval of the State, acting
through the Executive Director of WCB, or its successor, and USFWS (to the
extent required pursuant to the Federal Assistance Requirements).
6
F-138
h. Subgrantee shall record or cause to be recorded, concurrently with
close of escrow for the purchase of the Property, a Notice of Unrecorded
Subgrant Agreement (the "Notice"), incorporating by reference this Agreement
and giving public notice that Subgrantee received funds under this Agreement in
order to assist Subgrantee in acquiring the Property and that, in consideration for
the receipt of the Subgrant Funds, Subgrantee has agreed to the terms of this
Agreement. The Notice shall be in the form of Exhibit G.
i. Subgrantee shall provide to WCB, promptly following the close of
escrow, a conformed copy of the recorded deed(s) and Notice, with all recording
information set forth thereon, as well as a copy of the final Escrow closing or
settlement statement and the title insurance policy insuring Subgrantee as the
owner of fee simple title to the Property. Subgrantee shall also provide copies of
such other documents related to the closing of the Acquisition as requested by
WCB. These documents shall become part of the project file maintained by
WCB. Upon receipt of the above documents from Subgrantee, WCB will provide
USFWS with a copy of all documents for their files.
j. At the request of WCB, not less than once in any period of three
calendar years, Subgrantee shall allow designated staff or representatives of
WCB, CDFW and USFWS to access the Property to assess compliance with the
terms, covenants, and conditions of this Agreement. Provided, however, that if
more frequent access is necessary to comply with applicable federal
requirements (including, but not limited to, 50 C.F.R. Section 81.13) then
Subgrantee shall allow designated staff or representatives of WCB, CDFW and
USFWS access to the Property at such intervals as WCB, CDFW or USFWS
considers appropriate to meet federal requirements to which it is subject.
k. Subgrantee agrees to ensure that the terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall be taken into account when calculating the Baseline/Business
As Usual of the Property for purposes of establishing carbon credits or other
emissions offsets proposed to be authorized, created, sold, exchanged or
transferred. Subgrantee agrees to notify WCB prior to any such proposed
establishment.
7. BREACH AND DEFAULT
7 .1. In the event of a breach of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of
this Agreement, WCB shall give written notice to Subgrantee, describing the breach.
Notice shall be deemed given when personally delivered or deposited in the United
States Mail, postage prepaid, or with a reliable over-night courier, addressed to
Subgrantee at Subgrantee's address for notices set forth at the beginning of this
Agreement (or such changed address of which Subgrantee has notified WCB in writing
pursuant to this Agreement).
7.2. If Subgrantee does not cure the breach within 90 days of the date a notice
of breach is given or, if the breach is not curable within said 90-day period, Subgrantee
7
F-139
does not commence the cure within the 90-day period and diligently pursue it to
completion, then Subgrantee shall be in default ("Default") under this Agreement.
7.3. Subgrantee shall also be in Default under this Agreement upon the
discovery that information given to WCB by or on behalf of Subgrantee under or in
connection with obtaining this Agreement was materially false or misleading. Notice of
a Default under this Section 7.3 shall be given in accordance with Section 7.1.
8. REMEDIES
In the event of a Default under this Agreement, in addition to any and all
remedies available at law or in equity, WCB shall have the following remedies:
8.1. WCB may seek specific performance of this Agreement. Subgrantee
agrees that payment by Subgrantee to WCB of an amount equal to the Subgrant Funds
disbursed under this Agreement would be inadequate compensation for any Default
because the benefit to be derived from full compliance by Subgrantee with the terms of
this Agreement is to protect California gnatcatcher habitat and potential habitat for the
Palos Verdes butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and other rare species found within and
adjacent to the Ocean Trails Habitat Conservation Plan (QC HCP) area and because
such benefit exceeds to an immeasurable and unascertainable extent the amount of
money furnished by way of Subgrant Funds under this Agreement.
8.2. WCB may require Subgrantee to convey a conservation easement over
the Property in favor of the State or, at the election of WCB, another entity or
organization authorized by California law to acquire and hold conservation easements.
Furthermore, WCB may also require Subgrantee to pay a sum to WCB which, when
combined with the fair market value of the conservation easement, equals the amount
of Subgrant Funds provided by this Agreement, together with interest compounded
semi-annually starting from the date of disbursement of the Subgrant Funds to the State
Treasurer's Office to and including the date of payment, at a rate equivalent to the
higher of (a) that which is being earned at the time of Default on deposits in the State of
California's Pooled Money Investment Account or (b) the applicable rate of interest
under the Federal Assistance Requirements. The conservation easement shall be for
the purpose of protecting California gnatcatcher habitat and potential habitat for the
Palos Verdes butterfly, the coastal cactus wren and other rare species found within and
adjacent to the Ocean Trails Habitat Conservation Plan (QC HCP) area. The value of
the conservation easement shall be determined by an appraisal that is conducted by an
appraiser who is licensed pursuant to Part 3 (commencing with Section 11300) of
Division 4 of the Business and Professions Code and acceptable to WCB. The
appraisal shall be prepared pursuant to UASFLA and USPAP and approved by DGS.
8.3. Intentionally Left Blank.
8.4. Despite the contrary provisions of Article 7 of this Agreement, if WCB
determines that circumstances require immediate action to prevent or mitigate
interference with the Purposes of Subgrant or other irreparable harm arising from a
8
F-140
breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, then WCB may pursue its remedies
without waiting for the period provided for cure to expire.
8.5. CDFW, as the grantee under the Federal Grant Agreement, shall be an
express third-party beneficiary of this Agreement and shall have the same rights and
remedies as WCB in the event of a breach or Default by Subgrantee.
9. NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION SUBGRANTEE
9.1. If Subgrantee is a nonprofit organization and the existence of Subgrantee
is terminated for any reason, title to all interest in the Property acquired with Subgrant
Funds shall immediately vest in the State. However, prior to that termination, upon
approval of the State, acting through the Executive Director of WCB or its successor,
another public agency or nonprofit organization may receive title to all or a portion of
that interest in the Property by recording its acceptance of title in writing. Any deed or
other instrument of conveyance whereby the Property or any interest in it is being
acquired by a nonprofit organization pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be recorded and
shall set forth the executory interest or right of entry on the part of the State.
10. TERM
10.1. This Agreement shall be deemed executed and effective when signed by
an authorized representative of each party and received in the respective offices of
Subgrantee and WCB, together with the certifications, commitment and resolution
described in Section 4.1 (d) -(g) (the "Effective Date"). Subgrantee and WCB shall
each sign two original counterparts of this Agreement. Subgrantee shall receive one
completely executed original and WCB shall receive one completely executed original.
10.2. The term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and,
unless previously terminated as provided in Section 10.3, will expire on April 1, 2014 if
escrow has not closed by that date.
10.3. Prior to Subgrantee's close of escrow for acquisition of the Property, either
party may terminate this Agreement for any reason or for no reason, by providing the
other party with not less than 15 days' written notice of such termination. Notice shall
be given in the same manner as specified in Section 7.1. If this Agreement is
terminated after the deposit of the Subgrant Funds into Escrow but before close of
escrow for Subgrantee's acquisition of the Property, Subgrantee shall cause the escrow
holder to immediately return all Subgrant Funds to (or as instructed by) WCB and
Subgrantee shall bear all costs and expenses of such termination.
10.4. In the event this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms,
neither party shall have any rights nor remedies against the other party, except as
provided herein.
10.5. The provisions of this Agreement that are not fully performed as of the
close of escrow, including but not limited to Sections 3 (Purposes of Subgrant), 6
9
F-141
(Subgrantee's Covenants), 7 (Breach and Default) and 8 (Remedies) shall survive the
close of escrow for Subgrantee's acquisition of the Property and remain in full force and
effect.
11. LIABILITY, MODIFICATIONS, INTERPRETATION
11.1. Subgrantee shall indemnify, protect and hold harmless WCB, CDFW, the
State of California, and their respective members, directors, officers, agents, and
employees (each an "Indemnified Party"), from and against any and all claims,
demands, damages, liabilities, losses, costs (including attorneys' fees) and expenses
(collectively, "Claims") arising out of, connected with, or incident to this Agreement or
the acquisition, ownership, use, management, operation or maintenance of the
Property, except that Subgrantee shall have no obligation to indemnify or hold harmless
an Indemnified Party for Claims caused by the negligent or wrongful act of that
Indemnified Party.
11.2. This Agreement may be modified only by written amendment signed by
WCB and Subgrantee. No prior or contemporaneous oral understanding or agreement
not incorporated in this Agreement shall be binding on either of the parties.
11.3. All references herein to "Subgrantee" are intended to refer to Subgrantee
or its designee, successor or assignee as may be approved by WCB.
11.4. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person
or circumstance is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that shall not affect any other
provision of this Agreement or applications of the Agreement that can be given effect
without the invalid provision or application and to this end the provisions of this
Agreement are severable.
11.5. Subgrantee, its officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives,
is each acting in an independent capacity in entering into and carrying out this
Agreement, and not as a partner, member, director, officer, agent, employee or
representative of WCB, CDFW or the State of California.
11.6. This Agreement is not assignable or transferable by Subgrantee, either in
whole or in part, except in connection with a transfer of the Property approved by WCB
under Section 6.1 (f) of this Agreement.
11.7. Any costs incurred by WCB or CDFW, where it is the prevailing party, in
enforcing the terms of this Agreement against Subgrantee, including but not limited to
costs of suit, attorneys' and experts' fees, at trial and on appeal, and costs of enforcing
any judgment, shall be borne by Subgrantee.
11.8. Enforcement of the terms of this Agreement by WCB or CDFW shall be at
its discretion, and any forbearance by WCB or CDFW to exercise its rights under this
Agreement shall not be deemed or construed to be a waiver of such term or of any
10
F-142
subsequent breach of the same or any other term of this Agreement or any of the rights
of WCB or CDFW under it.
11.9. WCB will notify Subgrantee as promptly as possible following its receipt of
any request under the California Public Records Act (Government Code Section 6250 et
seq.) for information related to the Acquisition.
12. CONDEMNATION
12.1. If all or any part of the Property is taken by exercise of the power of
eminent domain, or acquired by purchase in lieu of condemnation, WCB and
Subgrantee shall act jointly to recover from the condemning authority the full value of
the Property so taken or purchased, and all direct or incidental damages resulting
therefrom. WCB shall be entitled to the share of the Award (as defined below) which
equals the ratio of the Subgrant Funds to the total purchase price Subgrantee paid to
acquire the Property (e.g., if Subgrantee paid a purchase price of $2 million and the
amount of Subgrant Funds was $750,000, then WCB would be entitled to 37.5% of the
Award). For purposes of this Agreement, the "Award" shall mean all compensation
awarded, paid or received on account of the Property so taken or purchased, and all
direct or incidental damages resulting from the taking or purchase, less all out-of-pocket
expenses reasonably incurred by Subgrantee in connection with the taking or purchase.
13. AUDIT

project costs, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and

records available (or cause them to be made available) to the State of California for
inspection and audit purposes during normal business hours. Expenditures not
documented, and expenditures not allowed under this Agreement or otherwise
authorized in writing by WCB shall be borne by Subgrantee. Except to the extent the
Federal Assistance Requirements (including, but not limited to, 50 C.F.R. Section
81.15) provide otherwise, the audit shall be confined to those matters connected with
this Agreement, including but not limited to administration and overhead costs.
14. UNION ORGANIZING
14.1. Subgrantee hereby acknowledges the applicability of Government Code
Sections 16645 through 16649 to this Agreement and certifies that:
a. No state funds (as defined in Government Code Section 16645)
disbursed by this subgrant will be used to assist, promote or deter union
organizing;
b. Subgrantee shall account for state funds disbursed for a specific
expenditure by this subgrant, to show those funds were allocated to that
expenditure;
11
F-143
c. Subgrantee shall, where funds are not designated as described in
Section 14.1 (b) above, allocate, on a pro-rata basis, all disbursements that
support the subgrant program; and

organizing, Subgrantee will maintain records sufficient to show that no
state funds were used for those expenditures, and that Subgrantee shall
provide those records to the Attorney General upon request.
15. NON-DISCRIMINATION
15.1. During the performance of this Agreement, Subgrantee is subject to all

employment because of race, religion, color, national origin, ancestry, physical disability
(including HIV and AIDS), mental disability, medical condition, marital status, age (over
40), sex, sexual orientation, or use of family-care leave, medical-care leave, or
pregnancy-disability leave. Subgrantee shall take affirmative action to ensure that the
evaluation and treatment of its employees and applicants for employment are free of
such discrimination and harassment. Such action shall include, but not be limited to,
the following: employment, upgrading, demotion or transfer; recruitment advertising;
layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for
training, including apprenticeship. Subgrantee shall comply with the regulations of the

statement as a condition of employment in connection with this
Agreement.
Failure to comply with the above requirements may result in suspension of
payments under, or termination of, this Agreement, or both. Subgrantee may be

case management of the Property would be carried out by the Palos Verdes Peninsula
Land Conservancy (PVPLC) in accordance with the management responsibilities
required by the NCCP/HCP. Anticipated costs of land management activities under the
NCCP/HCP are set forth in Table A which is provided in Appendix G.
F-156
In furtherance of the commitment set forth above, and in order to manage the property
consistent with the Purposes of this Subgrant, if the Property is enrolled in the
NCCP/HCP, Subgrantee or the PVPLC will fund management in perpetuity consistent
with the funding plan established in Section 4.3 of the NCCP/HCP.
Subgrantee makes this Commitment with the understanding that if WCB enters into the
Agreement and subgrants Federal Grant Funds (as defined in the Agreement) to
