Redevelopment Agreement or is otherwise in default under this Agreement, and what reasonable measures or acts will be necessary in the opinion of the Township in order for the Redeveloper to be entitled to the Certificate of Completion. If there is a dispute as to the Completion of the applicable phase of the Project between the Redeveloper and Township, the Township agrees to issue a Certificate of Completion with conditions that if satisfied by the Redeveloper shall convert the conditional Certificate of Completion to a final one for the applicable phase of the Project so as not to delay or interfere with the Redeveloper’s ability to secure permanent financing for the Project. When issued the Certificate of Completion shall constitute a recordable, conclusive determination of the satisfaction and termination of the agreements and covenants (as limited herein) in this Redevelopment Agreement and the Redevelopment Plan with respect to the obligations of the Redeveloper to construct the Project or relevant Phase, as well as a determination by the Township that the conditions that were found and determined to exist at the time the Redevelopment Area was determined to be in need of redevelopment shall be deemed to no longer exist and the conditions and requirements of N.J.S.A. 40A:12A-9 shall be deemed to have been satisfied with respect to the Redevelopment Project or applicable Phase thereof. Unless otherwise required by a related Financial Agreement, Governmental Approval or Applicable Law, upon the issuance of Certificate of Completion the provisions of this Agreement shall no longer encumber the applicable Phase of the Project; provided, however, that any other documents theretofore delivered pursuant to this Agreement that by their terms are intended to survive Completion of Construction (including, without limitation and by of example only, any deed restrictions, the Declaration of Restrictions, tax exemption agreements, etc.) shall not be affected by delivery of the Certificate of Completion except as otherwise expressly provided therein. 4.12 Estoppel Certificates (Prior to Certificate of Completion). At any time and from time to time prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Completion, the Township shall, within thirty (30) days following a written request by Redeveloper, execute and deliver to (a) Redeveloper, or (b) a third party (e.g., a

(a) The Redeveloper covenants and represents that it will make timely payment or reimbursement to the Township for all Township Costs. The Redeveloper has established with the Township an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) to cover Township Costs. From time to time during the implementation of the Project and until issuance of a final Certificate of Completion the Redeveloper agrees to replenish the Escrow Account upon the written request of the Township, to provide for a sufficient balance, as determined by the Township in its reasonable judgment, to cover anticipated Township Costs. (b) The Escrow Deposit is separate from and in addition to all other application fees and escrow deposits that may be required by the Township in connection with applications for land use approvals to implement the Redevelopment Plan. Additions to the Escrow Deposit may subsequently become necessary to cover all reimbursable expenses incurred by the Township 22 4839-2360-2911, v. 3
