(d) Two (2) examples of the application of the formula described above as
"Resale Profit" to determine the amount of the Agency Investment Reimbursement
payable on the date of a hypothetical resale of the New Home arepr~sented CIS follows:
EXAMPLE A: Resale to a purchaser whos~ Adjusted Pamilylncomeexce~ds the
income level of a Low or Moderate Income Household or to a purchaser who will not live
in the New Home as a principal residence:
Assume that on the Delivery Date the purchase price of the New Home paid b~
the Qualified Homebuyer was $290,000 and that the resale occurs on the 7
anniversary following the Delivery Date;
Assume the Resale Price of the New Home is $400.000;
4839-9390-0544.1 14
10-01-07 GFC Enterprises LLC- CC&R (Exhibit A)
10/25/2005
.
Assume that Qualified Homebuyer Equity as of the date of the resale is $23,500;
and
Assume that the Costs of Eligible Capital Improvements as of the date of the
resale is $6,000:
EXAMPLE A CALCULATION OF RESALE PROFIT: $400,000' - $302,8502 - ($23,5003
+ $5,0004 + $6,0005) = $62,6506:Resale Profit (SEE ALSO FOOTNOTES, BELOW).
The Agency Investment Reimbursement amount under Example A payable at
close of the resale escrow in this hypothetical example is $46,988 (e.g., 75% of
$62,650)
EXAMPLE B: Resale to a purchaser who the Agency has approved as a Successor-In-
Interest (e.g., a purchaser whose Adjusted Family Income DOES NOT exceed the
income level of a Low or Moderate Income Household and who will reside in the New
Home as their principal residence):
Assume same facts as in Example A and that the Successor-In-Interest also
pays no more than an Affordable Housing Cost for the New Home at a resale
price of $322,000 on the 7th anniversary date following the Delivery Date;
EXHIBIT B CALCULATION OF RESALE PROFIT:
No Agency Reimbursement is payable to Agency as the Successor-In-Interest is a Low
or Moderate Income Household in this hypothetical sale and pays to the Qualified
1 The Resale Price of the New Home to the Successor-In-Interest in Example A.
2 The Purchase Money Mortgage amount ($200,000 conventional mortgage) plus $85,000
Agency HAP Program, plus $17,850 of deferred interest payable to the Agency under the Agency Loan
for seven (7) years following the Delivery Date.
3 The Qualified Homebuyer Equity in the New Home ($5,000 cash down payment plus a $10,000
reduction <If outsjanding princip.,1 balance on the First Mortg.,gel-enderJoan).
4 The Resale Cost Adjustment Factor in the 7th year following the Delivery Date.
5 The aggregate amount of Costs of Eligible Capital Improvements is $6,000 in this example.
6 The Resale Profit of $62,650 is subject to a 75% allocation to pay the Agency Investment
Reimbursement, or $46,988 payable to the Agency (as provided in Section 6(b)). The seller of this New
Home could retain only $15,662 of the "Resale Profit" in this example since the purchaser is nol a Low or
Moderate Income person or household. However, the portion of the "Resale Profit," if any, allocated to
the seller in this example would be in addition to the seller's recapture of its equity in the New Home, plus
the Costs of Eligible Capital Improvements which in this particutar example is a total sum of $34,500
payable to the seller. Thus in this example, the seller's total cash realized at time of this hypothetical sale
would be $50,162. (See also Footnote NO.3 and Footnote No.4, above)
4839-9390-0544.1 15
10-01-07 GFC Enterprises lLC~ CC&R (Exhibit A)
10/2512005
Homebuyer no more than Affordable Housing Cost for its purchase of the New Home.
In this example, the seller of the New Home could retain the full amount of the Resale
Profit. Also note that in this example, the Successor-In-Interest's "Qualified Homebuyer
Equity" will be an adjusted amount which reflects the Successor-In-Interest's new
mortgage and equity basis in the New Home based upon its $322,000 purchase price
for purposes of determining whether an Agency Reimbursement amount may be
payable by such Successor-In-Interest in any future resale transaction during the
remaining thirty eight (38) years of the term of the Qualified Residence Period.
(e) The sole source of funds of the Qualified Homebuyer to pay the Agency
the Agency Reimbursement Agreement, shall be from the Resale Profit amount, if any,
realized at the time of resale to a purchaser whose Adjusted Family Income exceeds
the income level of a Moderate Income Household. In the event that the applicable
amount of the Agency Loan is paid in full to the Agency at the time of resale of the New
Home to a person or household which does not qualify as a Successor-In-Interest, the
Agency shall cause to be recorded concurrently with the resale of the New Home to
such person, a notice of release of the following provisions of this Affordable Housing
Covenant:
Section 2,
Section 3,
Section 5
