("Ashdale") as owner and Royal Bank of Canada as mortgagee (Plan 40M-1670), Ashdale had defaulted in performing its obligations under the Ashdale Subdivision Agreement to construct, complete and maintain certain works including the south portion of the "Bradshaw Street Reconstruction Work" and "Storm Sewer Oversizing Works" as defined in the Agreement. REPORT NO:WD-37-95 PAGE 1 2.2 Previously, as authorized by Council by its adoption of the recommendations. contained in Report #WD-27-93 (Attachment No. 2) at its meeting held on July 12, 1993, the Director had given notice of default to Ashdale and the Municipality's Treasurer had presented for payment the Letter of Credit that had been deposited by Ashdale with the Municipality as a Performance Guarantee under the Ashdale Subdivision Agreement. Council also adopted the recommendation that the Municipality complete the works required by the this Agreement and apply the funds deposited with the Municipality following the calling of the Letter of Credit for this purpose. 2.3 Letter of Credit #P2601.OT06206 issued by the Royal Bank of Canada was called and the proceeds ($1,835,055.05) were deposited in the Municipality's account. Certain but not all of the works required by the Ashdale Subdivision Agreement were undertaken by the Municipality, Other works remain to be undertaken and completed. As security for the remaining works the Municipality now has cash on deposit as a Performance Guarantee rather than a letter of credit. 2,4 r1lie agreement with Royal Bank of Canada authorized by Council at its meeting of March 14, 1994 was to address; (1) certain costs incurred by the Municipality as a result of the default by Ashdale; (2) certain cost sharing payments which the Municipality was to endeavour to collect under the Subdivision Agreement; (3) the indemnification of the Municipality against certain liabilities; and(4)compliance with certain property standards orders affecting the subject lands. (These matters are discussed in detail in Report #VVD-15-94) Central to the agreement recommended in Report #WD-15-94 is the principle that the Municipality would complete the works required by the Ashdale Subdivision Agreement (as authorized by Council's adoption of Report WD-27-93 at its meeting held on July 12, 1993) but that progress i i REPORT NC1MD-37-95 PAGE-8 payments under any construction contract entered into by the Municipality for such works would be paid by the Royal Bank of Canada. 2.5 As authorized by Council on March 14, 1994, the Director in consultation with the. Municipality's Solicitor prepared a form of agreement satisfactory to the Director. This form of agreement was delivered to the solicitors for Royal Bank of Canada who requested in writing a number of amendments to the agreement. Royal Bank of Canada's proposed amendments to the draft agreement are not satisfactory to the Director having regard to protection of the Municipality's interests. As a result, the agreement authorized by Council on March 14, 1994 has not been executed either by the Municipality or Royal Bank of Canada. 2.6 Prior to and since the preparation of Report #WD-15-94 the Municipality has made the following expenditures relating to the default of Ashdale and/or the completion of the Works required by the Asltdale Subdivision Agreement by the Municipality: Payments Made i) Consumer's Gas Invoice 3,005,72 ii) G.M. Sennas Invoices 38,616.86 iii) peto MacCullum Invoices 2,495.72 iv) Bennett Paving 159,14753 v) George Moore Electric 1,25$.06 vi) J.D. Barnes Surveying 1,542.00 vii) pion Robinson Ltd. 1x976,00 viii) Advertising Costs 603.48 ix) Surnland Landscape 5,760.00 x) Shibley Righton Invoices (to Nov, 2, 1994) $ 9,867.74 xii) Snowclearing Invoices 4,977,23 REPORT NO.tWD-37.95 PACE 9 Net G.S.T. on above items 6,405.74. Total; $235,650.08 Additional Payments Required i) Soper Creek Contribution $132,400.00 ii) Regional Work at Bradshaw St. 25,716.31 iii) Clarington. Planning Invoice 106.88 iv) Clarington Hydro Invoices 268.69 Total: $:158,491.88 Additionally, pursuant to the terns of the Ashdale Subdivision Agreement the Municipality is entitled to a management fee of 30°Io of expenditures totalling $196,857.60 being $59,057.28. This is a matter which is discussed below in this Report. 3.0 DISSCUSSION 3.1 Numerous discussions have been held between Public Works Department Staff and a representative of Helyar & Associates, quantity surveyors and engineers representing Royal Bank of Canada which have resulted in a written proposal to the Managcr of Engineering Services dated July 6, 1995 (Attachment No. 3). The objective of Royal Bank of Canada in these discussions was to vary the arrangements Previously agreed to with the Municipality to: (1) permit the works required by the Ashdale Subdivision Agreement to be completed by Royal Bank of Canada and not the Municipality in order to avoid payment of the management fee which the i Municipality would otherwise be entitled to under the Ashdale Subdivision Agreement in respect of the completion of works performed by the Municipality; (2) reduce the management fee to 20% from 30% on works undertaken and completed to date by the Municipality; (3) obtain payment of or credit for interest on the funds REPORT • deposited with the Municipality as a Performance Guarantee; and (4) obtain a legal commitment from the Municipality to recover the cost of external and oversizing works which are of benefit to other owners constructed by Royal Bank of Canada. 3.2 The Liza. Subdivision Agreement between the Municipality and 621182 Ontario Limited (Liza Developments) in respect of the lands the Phase 1 portion of which is within the approved and registered Plan of Subdivision 40M-1688 requires the owner to construct the north portion (Apple Blossom Blvd. South to the Ashdale PIan) of the Bradshaw Street Urban Upgrading Work (as defined in the Agreement) in accordance with the Liza Subdivision Agreement. The Works Cost Estimate incorporated in the Liza Subdivision Agreement did not include an estimate of the cost of the Bradshaw Street Urban Upgrading Work since it was contemplated that it would be undertaken in Phase 2 of the development and that financial security for it would be deposited with the Municipality at that time. As a result, the Performance Guarantee now on deposit with the Municipality does not include an amount to secure the completion of the Bradshaw Street Urban Upgrading Work. 3.3 6211820 Ontario Limited (Liza Developments) has recently applied to the Municipality for a reduction in its Performance Guarantee in respect of the Liza Phase 1 lands. The Municipality has not responded to this application pending consideration of this Report. 3.4 Each of the existing Ashdale and Liza Phase 1 Subdivision Agreements provide that (i) the Municipality passes a Development Charge By-law under the Act which is applicable to the Land; REPORT - - FAE 11 (ii) the Development Charge By-law comes into force; and (iii) Municipal Council is not required by the Ontario Municipal Board to repeal the Development Charge By-law, then as soon as reasonably practicable the Municipality and the Owner intend to enter into a front-ending agreement respecting the' reconstruction of Bradshaw Street. As yet, the Municipality has not passed a Development Charge By-law which incorporates such works and their costs in the By-law. IS Milran Development Consultants, consulting engineers, on behalf of Liza. Developments and its secured lender Royal Bank of Canada has proposed in writing to the Manager of Engineering Services (see Attachment Nos. 4 and. 5) that 621182 Ontario Limited (Liza,Developments)now proceed with the Bradshaw Street Urban Upgrading Work and that the surplus amount of the performance Guarantee now i held by the Municipality be applied towards securing this work if: (1) the Municipality agrees to enter into a front-ending agreement for the Bradshaw Street Urban Upgrading Work in accordance with the Subdivision Agreements; (2) the south portion of Bradshaw Street is committed to by Royal Bank of Canada; and (3) the Municipality agrees to endeavour to collect contributions towards the Bradshaw Street Urban UpgradingWork as a condition of severance ace Approval of lands owned by other owners who will benefit from the Bradshaw Street Urban Upgrading Work, i 3.6 Both Helyar & Associates ori "behalf of Royal Bank of Canada and Milran Development Consultant on behalf of 621182 Ontario Limited (Liza Developments) have requested that the Municipality agree endeavour to collect contributions towards the cost of reconstructing Bradshaw Street as a condition of severance i REPORT approval for lots which benefit from such work and that the Municipality enter into front-ending agreements with each of these owners or their legal representatives in order that they can he assured that part of the cost of such works will be recovered by them from other benefiting owners. The Municipality's solicitor advises that under the provisions of the Dev 1 me ,nt Chugo A .1, the Municipality cannot commit itself legally to endeavour to collect contributions as a condition of subdivision or severance approval. The Development Chargg�Act requires that an amendment to the Development Charge By-law be enacted respecting the service in operation and its estimated cost as well as to delineate the area benefiting therefrom. The terms of the existing Ashdale and Liza Phase i Subdivision Agreements adequately address the issue of entering into front-ending agreements under the Act and the recovery of costs and commit the Municipality to the extent that it can prior to Council enacting a by-law amending the Development Charges By-law to incorporate the Bradshaw Street Urban Upgrading Work. Cost calculations for and the distribution of benefits from the rcconstruction of Bradshaw Street have now been prepared by G.M. Sernas&Associates Ltd.,consulting engineers,and approved by the Director and the provisions of the Subdivision Agreement respecting cost recoveries may be implemented by the Municipality, Accordingly, itis recommended that the request of Helyar & Associates and N ilran Development Consultants respecting a further legal commitment of the Municipality in this regard not be approved. i i 33 Tl'e Municipality will be benefited by having both the north and south portions of Bradshaw Street reconstructed at the same time and at this time. Although the Municipality is presently in a position to reconstruct the south portion of Bradshaw Street, it is not presently in a position to reconstruct the north portion of Bradshaw Street. It is in the best interest of the Municipality that the Municipality allow Royal Bank of Canada to complete the balance of the works required by the A.shdale l REPQK N .. 7.9 FA 1 Subdivision Agreement under the terms proposed by it if a binding commitment for the completion of the north portion of Bradshaw can be obtained. These arrangements have been proposed to the Municipality on terms generally acceptable to the Director except for the requirement that the Municipality commit to either entering into a front-ending agreement and endeavour to collect. Under the Development Charges Act, the benefiting owners have the opportunity to be heard by Council and to appeal either or both the amendment to the Development Charge By-law or proposed front-ending agreements to the Ontario Municipal Board. 3.8 In order to secure completion of the north portion of Bradshaw Street, it will also be necessary to amend the Liza Phase 1 Subdivision Agreement with 6211820 Ontario Limited (Liza Developments) to provide for a commitment for such work to be undertaken presently and for a revision of the Works Cost Estimate to incorporate the cost of such work. This in turn will require the deposit of a Performance Guarantee to secure the estimated cost of its construction. Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, tep en o es, ng, WiH.

July 12, 1993, the Director of Public Works issued a final notification letter to Ashdale Capital Corporation Ltd. notifying it of its default, neglect, act or omission in failing to complete the construction or installation of the Works pursuant to the Subdivision Agreement with the Municipality,- Ashdale Capital Corporation Ltd. failed to comply with the final notification letter. Again, in accordance with the recommendations contained in Report WD-27-931 the Treasurer of the Municipality presented Letter of Credit (P.26010T06206) deposited with the Municipality in respect of the construction and maintenance of the Works and other obligations provided for in the Subdivision Agreement, for payment at the issuing bank. 2.2 The Municipality was approached by the Royal Bank of Canada . which was the issuing bank of the Letter of Credit. Discussions were held with the Royal Bank of Canada Officials REPORT NO. : WD-15-94 PAGE 5 and their solicitors to determine whether any portion of the money received by the Municipality from presentation of the Letter of Credit could be returned to the Royal Bank of Canada in return for the undertaking of the Royal Bank of Canada to complete the outstanding Works pursuant to the Subdivision Agreement. By letter dated November 10, 1993, from the Municipality's solicitors to the Royal Bank of Canada's solicitors a proposal was made whereby the amount of $1, 640,758.34 could be returned to the Royal Bank of Canada upon their undertaking on the. matters_set_ out--in the letter and which matters are reflected in the recommendations contained in this Report (Attachment No. 2) . The actual amount will reflect the recent completion of some of the Works and additional invoices, and will be as determined by the Director. 2 .3 By letter dated November 25, 1993, solicitors for the Royal Bank of Canada agreed to the required undertakings on behalf of the .Royal Bank of Canada (Attachment No. 3) . 2 .4 During the course of the negotiations with the Royal Bank of Canada the By-law Enforcement Division of the Municipality issued a Notice to Comply (File No. V93/414) on October 25, 1993, and an Order (File No. V93/414) issued on December 2, 1993, pursuant to the Municipality's_Property Standards By-law (Attachment No. 4) . By letter dated December 15, 1993, the Royal Bank of Canada indicated it would take the necessary steps to rectify the Notice and the Order (Attachment No. 5) . To date these matters have not yet been attended to. 2 .5 The Municipality has entered into a similar arrangement with the Royal Bank of Canada respecting the Trulls Delbert i Subdivisions and the undertakings of the Royal Bank of Canada pursuant to that arrangement are currently being carried out to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works. If a REPORT NO. : WD-15-94 PAGE 6 similar arrangement is entered into with the Royal Bank of Canada in respect of the Willowbrook Gardens Subdivision, it is anticipated that such arrangement will also be completed to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works . If such arrangements are not conducted satisfactorily then the. Director of Public Works may report to Council requesting authority to draw on a Letter of Credit required to be deposited with the Municipality's Treasurer pursuant to such arrangements with the Royal Bank of Canada.

Walker, Head Barristers and Solicitors 1305 Pickering Parkway Suite 506, Corporate Centre _I Pickering, Ontario ......... D L1V 3P2 Attention: Mr. Victor A Sero Dear Sirs: Re: The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington (the "Municipality") Subdivision Agreement (the "Subdivision Agreement") with Ashdale Capital Corporation Ltd. ("Ashdale") s Registered Plan 40M-1676 We wish to confirm that we held without prejudice meetings on September 10, 1993 and on October 19, 1993 to address the concerns raised by Royal Bank of Canada ("RBC") through its solicitors Walker Head that the amount of money drawn by the Municipality on Letter of Credit P26010TO6206 (the "Letter of Credit") was in excess of the amount required by the Municipality to complete the outstanding works under the Subdivision Agreement. We ' must stress at the onset, it is the position of the Municipality that the appropriation of funds has been made in accordance with the terms of the Subdivision Agreement and that there is a continuing default on the part of Ashdale in that it has failed to complete the works and to forthwith reinstate the full amount of the performance guarantee as required by paragraph.3.7(1) of the Subdivision Agreement. ATTACHMENT N0.2 WD-15-94 I Page 2 As to the allegation that the amount appropriated was excessive we wish to advise you of the following amounts for which the Municipality had actual or contingent liability pursuant to the Subdivision Agreement: 1. Estimated costs to complete the works including reconstruction of Bradshaw Street - $1,000,000.00 2. West Branch Soper Creek Contribution $132,400.00 3. Potential claims for construction lien: a) Sernas $43,000.00 b) Cana-Drain Services Inc. $200,000.00 C) Pilen $7,103.00 d) Direct Equipment $4,727.00 Total - $254,830.00 Plus 25% for costs $63,707.50 Total $318,53750 4. Bell Canada claim $1,754.45 5. Clarington Hydro $192.65 6. Bradshaw Street Easement acquisition unknown i I 7. Ashdale Holdings sidewalk lands acquisition unknown As you can 'see from the foregoing figures and contingent expenditures, at the time the Municipality appropriated funds under the Letter of Credit, it was fully justified in drawing the full amount thereof. i Subsequent settlement by RBC with Sernas and Associates,Consulting Engineers to Ashdale has permitted the Municipality to obtain accurate and detailed estimates of the works completed to date and the works which remain outstanding together with valuations of each. These valuations in 1993 costs are $1,586,945.38 and $652,062.88 respectively. The latter figure escalated by five (5%) percent-as a projection for 1994 costs is $684,666.03. The estimated costs to complete include five (5%)percent for contingencies, ten (10%) percent engineering costs and seven (7%) percent G.S.T. Additionally, the Municipality requires a completion allowance of $116,340.87 and a maintenance deposit of$202,244.53. t i Page 3 RBC has expressed a concern about the thirty (30%) percent management fee to which the Municipality is entitled pursuant to paragraph 5.17(1) of the Subdivision Agreement. Specifically RBC surmises that the Municipality's actual costs will be less than such percentage of the cost to complete. In response we wish to point out that supervisory fees in the construction industry are commonly based on a percentage mark-up and not upon an actual cost basis. Additionally the Municipality is not organized on an on-going basis to track the time spent by its officials and employees on specific matters. Further the Municipality has not sought to manage the completion of the works but rather has been put in this position with respect to the incomplete Willowbrook Subdivision after prolonged default by Ashdale. Ashdale's default in continuing to complete the work has been known to RBC. Also the requirement of the Director of Public Works that the works be completed on or before August 13, 1993, 1 was advised, was also known to RBC. Having regard to the recent initiatives by RBC to assist the Municipality in the completion of the works, the Director of Public Works is prepared to interpret the thirty (30%)percent management fee set out in paragraph 5.17(10) of the Subdivision Agreement as inclusive of engineering costs provided that it is without prejudice to the rights of the Director to make a different interpretation of this provision in respect of defaults under other subdivision agreements.As engineering costs have been accounted for above, this interpretation results in a specified management fee of twenty (20%) percent which percentage will be based, in this instance, upon the estimated cost to complete exclusive of contingencies, engineering and taxes. This results in a management fee of $110,800.83. An alternative interpretation of the provision would permit a management fee of $205,399.80. Having regard to the foregoing factors, the Director of Public Works is prepared to recommend to Municipal Council that a substantial portion of the funds currently held by the Municipality pursuant to appropriations under the Letter of Credit returned to RBC if RBC undertakes as follows: 1. To acknowledge the propriety of the actions taken by the Municipality and its officials in appropriating funds under the Letter of Credit. 2. To pay, on presentation of appropriate invoices all reasonable legal and consulting costs or miscellaneous costs (ie. snowclearing, snowfence) incurred or to be incurred by the Municipality as a result of the default of Ashdale in completing the works as required by the Subdivision Agreement. I 3. To pay all progress payments required by the construction contract or contracts "entered into or to be entered into by the Municipality for the completion of the works required by the Subdivision Agreement forthwith after presentation to RBC of a true copy of appropriate certification of completed work made by the Consulting Engineers to such construction contract or contracts. I d Page 4 4. To consent to the following payments: a) West Branch Soper Creek contribution $132,400.00 b) Snow clearing costs $2,824.80 C) Consumers Gas invoice $3,216.12 d) Shibley Righton $4,188.74 e) Municipality of Clarington Management Fee $110,800.83 5. To indemnify and save harmless the Municipality from any and all claims made pursuant to the Construction Lien Act in respect of the supply of labour, services and material to date under the requirements of the Subdivision Agreement including but not limited to those claims made by Cana-Drain, Pilen and Direct Equipment, provided that RBC at its cost may obtain an order or orders of a court of competent jurisdiction dismissing any one or all of such claims as against the Municipality and provided that the Municipality will cooperate at the cost of RBC in obtaining any such order or' orders. 6. To obtain and deliver all engineering drawings prepared by G.M. Sernas and Associates Ltd. respecting the works and the benefits of all rights associated with such drawings. 7. To pay the Clarington Hydro invoice in the amount of$192.65. 8. Indemnify and save harmless the Municipality from the Bell Canada claim provided that RBC at its own cost may defend such claim. 9. To deliver an unconditional and irrevocable letter of credit issued by RBC and containing terms satisfactory to the Municipal Treasurer in the minimum amount of$1,033,251.43. Upon receipt of the undertakings from the RBC as set out above and in a form satisfactory to the Director of Public Works, the Director of Public Works will recommend to Municipal Council that the amount set out below and calculated as follows be returned to RBC. Total amounts drawn under the Letter of Credit: I a) $1,835,055.05 Page 5 b) $57,939.73 C) $1,194.05 Total $1,894,188.83 Less total of invoices paid or to be paid $10,229.66 Less management fee $110,800.83 Less West Branch Sopher Creek contribution - $1321400.00 Amount to be returned to Royal Bank of Canada $1,640,758.34 Please provide us with a letter from Royal Bank of Canada or by your firm on its behalf committing Royal Bank of Canada to the required undertaking. Upon receipt of such letter the appropriate report may be prepared and placed on the agenda for the next scheduled general purpcse and administration committee meeting. Depending upon when and if approval of this proposed arrangement is given, the Municipality may be required to make ongoing payments for construction or engineering of the works. RBC has also expressed an interest in obtaining payment which otherwise benefits Ashdale for contributions from other developers in the benefitting area in respect to oversizing works installed by Ashdale. In this regard, it is an requirement under the Subdivision Agreement that the Owner enter into a Frontending Agreement with the Municipality pursuant to the Development Charges Act prior to any such contributions which have been collected by the Municipality being paid to Ashdale. You have made us aware in the past that RBC has received an assignment of benefit of such contributions from Ashdale. Has RBC received an assignment of the Subdivision Agreement which can be evidenced and which may permit RBC to enter into a Frontending Agreement directly with the Municipality? Otherwise is RBC in a position to require Ashdale.to enter into such agreement with the Municipality? Yours truly, SHIBLEY RIGHTON Per: ORIGINAL SIGNED BY NICHOLAS T. NAGCS Nicholas T.

The Subdivision Agreement required that the Owner construct a storm sewer system; stormwater management works; all roadworks, including hotmix paving, curbs, sidewalks, topsoil and soddiAg. of boulevards, paving of driveway entrances, street lighting, street trees; noise attenuation fencing, and reconstructing Bradshaw Street, hereinafter referred to as the 'Works ' .

The present amount of the letter of credit is $1,836,294 .10. REPORT NO. : WD-27-93 PAGE 3 2 . 3 The initial Works were completed by the Owner in the fall of 1991 . Since that time numerous complaints have been received from residents regarding the lack of construction activity within the subdivision. Despite attempts by staff to contact the Owner to expedite the Works, the Owner has not responded and no action has occurred to date. 2 . 4 A letter was received from the Owner's Engineer, G. M. Sernas and Associates Ltd. , dated June 3 , 1993, advising that they had withdrawn their services and were proceeding with lien action against Ashdale Capital Corporation Ltd. (Attachment No. 2) . 2 .5 Public Works staff issued an advisory letter on June 7, 1993 notifying the Owner that a report to Council was being prepared which could be averted if immediate action was taken to initiate the Works (Attachment No. 3) . Again, no action or response has occurred to date. 2 . 6 The outstanding Works include, but are not necessarily limited to: base asphalt repairs, curbs, sidewalks, surface asphalt paving, driveway approach paving, boulevard sodding, street trees, sound barrier fencing and the reconstruction of Bradshaw Street. Staff estimates the cost of completing all outstanding Works to be approximately $1, 100,000.00 . I f 2 .7 Pursuant to paragraph 5. 17(1) of each of the Subdivision Agreement (Attachment No. 4) , the Director of Public Works after receiving the authority of Town Council may give the Owner notice in writing of the default, neglect, act or omission of the Owner in not constructing or installing or causing to be constrt�cted'• or installed any of the Works required by the Subdivision Agreement.
