By Motion, adopt the attached Resolution approving the assignment of the Promissory Note and "auto tax revenues" from Price Enterprises, Inc. to Old MC, Inc. A. ,Summ= and Recommendation - Price Enterprises, Inc. is requesting the Redevelopment Agency to assign the existing Promissory Note and right to "auto tax revenues" with Price Enterprises, Inc. to Old MC, Inc. Price Enterprises is currently in the process of transferring Redevelopment Agency Promissory Notes and other assets to Old MC, Inc., a holding corporation for accounting and tax purposes. In 1986, the Redevelopment Agency entered into a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) with The Price Company to facilitate the development of the Price Club Plaza. The Price Company loaned the Agency $5,107,517 to be utilized in part toward the purchase of the site by the Agency, an Environmental Impact Report, on-site and off-site improvements, and certain development fees. The repayment of the obligation (Promissory Note) was based on sales tax revenues received by the City from the Price Club and surrounding stores in the Price Club Plaza. Currently, the repayment is structured so that the first $450,000 of sales tax flows directly to the Agency. The next $600,000 goes to The Price Company to pay-off the Promissory Note. Any sales tax over $1,050,000 is split with 50% to the City and 50% to repayment of the Note. Staff recommends that the Agency adopt the attached Resolution approving the assignment of the Promissory Note and "auto tax revenues" from Price Enterprises, Inc. to Old MC, Inc. B. Bac ound - In March 1995, The Price Company transferred the Promissory Note to Price Enterprises, Inc. Price Enterprises, Inc. has now created Old MC, Inc. a holding corporation to administer its City and Agency notes, and other assets for tax and accounting purposes. Price Enterprises, Inc. owns all the issued and outstanding stock of Old MC, Inc. The assignment of the Promissory note would not alter any of the terms and conditions of the original note. Price Enterprises, Inc. will own and operate the Price Club Plaza (existing in-line stores and proposed Office Depot and Petsmart), and The Price Company will continue to own and operate the Price Club and underlying property. The auto parcel is separately owned and operated by Capistrano Ford. FOR CirY COUNCIL AGEN v 0 E Agenda Item -2- July 18, 1995 Under this assignment, Old MC, Inc. will receive payments under the Agency's Promissory Note based on the sales tax generated by the whole plaza (in-line stores, new buildings, and Price Club). Should the Price Club close, Price Costco would be obligated to pay Old MC, Inc. an amount equal to 72% of the outstanding book balance of the Promissory Note (reduced by payments to that date).
