2. 7.1 Fair Housing. Owner shall comply with state and federal fair <br />housing laws in the marketing and rental of the units in the Project. Owner shall accept <br />as tenants, on the same basis as all other prospective tenants, persons who are <br />recipients of federal certificates or vouchers for rent subsidies pursuant to the existing <br />Section 8 program or any successor thereto. <br />2.7.2 Non-Discrimination. Owner covenants for itself and all persons <br />claiming under or through it, and this Agreement is made and accepted upon and <br />subject to the condition that there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of <br />any person or group of persons on account of any basis listed in subdivision (a) or (d) of <br />Section 12955 of the Government Code, as those bases are defined in Sections 12926, <br />12926.1, subdivision (m) and paragraph (1) of subdivision (p) of Section 12955, and <br />Section 12955.2 of the Government Code, in the sale, lease, sublease, transfer, use, <br />occupancy, tenure or enjoyment of the Property or part thereof, nor shall Owner or any <br />person claiming under or through Owner establish or permit any such practice or <br />practices of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, <br />number, use or occupancy of tenants, lessees, subtenants, sublessees or vendees in, <br />of, or for the Property or part thereof. Owner shall include such provision in all deeds, <br />leases, contracts and other instruments executed by Owner, and shall enforce the same <br />diligently and in good faith. <br />2.8 Float Up Provisions. <br />2.8.1. It is anticipated that twenty-five (25) Restricted Units in the Project <br />(the "Subsidy Units") will receive project-based vouchers or other rental subsidies (the <br />"Rental Subsidy") throughout the term of this Agreement. If any change in federal law <br />occurs, or any action (or inaction) by Congress or any federal, state, or local agency <br />occurs, which results in a material reduction, termination or non renewal of the Rental <br />Subsidy through no fault of the Owner, such that the Rental Subsidy is no longer <br />available, Borrower shall, in anticipation of such loss in Rental Subsidy, use good faith <br />efforts for a period of sixty (60) days, to obtain alternative sources of rental subsidies <br />and shall provide the City weekly progress reports on Borrower's efforts to obtain <br />alternative sources of rental subsidies. If at the end of such sixty (60) day period <br />Borrower is unable to secure an alternate source of rental subsidy, notwithstanding <br />Section 2.2 above, Borrower may increase the rent on one or more of the Restricted <br />Units that overlap with a Subsidy Unit, to the the Qualifying Rent for a Low-Income <br />Household, to maintain the financial stability of the Project. <br />2.8.2. Notwithstanding Section 2.2 above, in the event that Bank of <br />America, N.A., California Community Reinvestment Corporation, or their respective <br />successors and assigns as lender of first-priority lien on the Property foreclosures on <br />the Project (or receives a deed in lieu of foreclosure), the rents on one or more of the <br />Restricted Units may be increased to sixty percent (60%) Area Median Income ("AMI"), <br />to maintain the financial stability of the Project. <br />2890662.3 5
