RDA B-1 ADVANCE AND REPAYMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY AND REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY November 4,2010 Page 2 of 2 DISCUSSION The draft "Advance and Repayment Agreement"(see attached)was prepared by the City Attorney's office to document that the City and RDA intended the City's contribution to be an advance,rather than a permanent transfer offunds to the RDA (similarto a contribution of equity or capital in a commercial business transaction).The Advance and Repayment Agreement also serves to clarify the method for disbursing Developer repayments to the City.The RDA's liability to the City is solely to pay the City a pro-rata share of amounts repaid by the developer.The City's share of each repayment amount will be the same proportion as the City's contribution to the total amount loaned.For example,if the entire $6,790,000 is loaned to the Developer,the City's share of each repayment amount would equal 26%($1,766,368 divided by $6,790,000)and the RDA's share would equal 74%. The City's advance for this project will carry the same terms as the RDA loan to the Developer;which means that it will accrue simple interest at the rate of 3%per year on amounts outstanding from the dates of disbursement.This advance is not an addition to the Consolidated Loan Agreement between the City and RDA dated December 1,2003. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact as a result of approving the attached draft agreement.The City's $1,766,368 contribution to the AM CAL project has been recorded as a Note Receivable in the City's Affordable Housing Fund as of June 30,2010.The entire amount of the loan to AMCAL has been recorded as a Note Receivable in the RDA's Housing Set-Aside Fund, with an offsetting Advance Payable to the City's Affordable Housing Fund for the $1,766,368 contribution.As of June 30,2010,the total amount loaned to AMCAL is $6,173,035.Staff expects that the Developer will finalize its loan draws during 2011.
