be limited to the total amount of nine million dollars ($9, 000, 000)

increment the City receives from the Subject Property which is paid
into a special fund to be created as part of the Route 20 Tax
32
Increment Financing District which is expected to be designated as
the City of Elgin Route 20 Area Tax Increment Financing
Redevelopment Project Area Special Tax Allocation Fund (such
property tax increment the City receives from the Subject Property
which is paid into such special fund to be created as part of the
Route 20 Tax Increment Financing District is hereinafter referred
to as the "Tax Increment from the Subject Property" ) . The parties
understand and agree that the Subject Property as of the entry into

therefore expect that in the event of the creation of the Route 20
Tax Increment Financing District that all of the real estate taxes
for the Subject Property should during the term of the Route 20 Tax
Increment Financing District consist of the so-called property tax
increment . The City agrees until such time as the City has paid
the Subject Monetary Development Assistance to the Developer in
full as provided in this section not to assign the Tax Increment
from the Subject Property to any other owner or developer of
property within the Route 20 Tax Increment Financing District . The
City shall pay the Subject Monetary Development Assistance to the
Developer on an annual basis as described in this section until the
City has completed repayment to the Developer of the Subject
Monetary Development Assistance . No interest shall accrue on the
Subject Monetary Development Assistance . Commencing with the
calendar year the City first receives Tax Increment from the
Subject Property, the City shall reimburse to the Developer on or
before December 1 of such calendar year the Tax Increment from the
33
Subject Property the City has received in such calendar year. The
City shall continue to make such reimbursements to the Developer on
an annual basis on or before December 1 of each year until the
Subject Monetary Development Assistance has been reimbursed to the
Developer. For the purposes of example and clarification, if in
the calendar year the City first receives Tax Increment from the
Subject Property, the City receives five hundred thousand dollars
($500, 000) of Tax Increment from the Subject Property, and in each
year following such year the City thereafter receives nine hundred
thousand dollars ($900, 000) of Tax Increment from the Subject
Property, the City would make payment to the Developer of the

$500, 000, Years 2 through 10 - $900, 000 each year, and Year 11 -
$400 , 000 .

operations from Building Number 69 on the Subject Property shall
include the cost of renovating the State' s new location along with
moving expenses relating to moving from Building Number 69 .
34
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is agreed and understood that the
City' s reimbursement obligation for such relocation costs is
subject to and contingent upon the City and the State of Illinois
agreeing in the Subject Sale Agreement with the State on a total
amount the City' s reimbursement obligation will not exceed.

($11, 400, 000) the Developer agrees to make payments to the City as
described in this section. In such event, the parties will each
year for the remaining term of the Route 20 Tax Increment Financing
District calculate the amount of tax increment the City would have
received from the Subject Property utilizing an equalized assessed
valuation for the Subject Property of eleven million four hundred
thousand dollars ($11 , 400 , 000) (such calculation of tax increment
from the Subject Property utilizing an equalized assessed valuation
of eleven million four hundred thousand dollars ($11, 400 , 000) is

Developer shall pay to the City the amount by which the subject Tax
Increment Calculation for the Subject Property exceeds the actual
Tax Increment from the Subject Property received by the City.
