LLC (454 Bethel Road - Old Water Tank Property)
(kbl:2/2/2024:4875-9992-5134, v. 1)
in Section 4.1 contained herein may be exercised after failure of any person or persons violating or
attempting to violate any covenants or restrictions to cure such violation or breach within a thirty (30) day
notice periods after receipt of written notice thereof, by proceeding at law or in equity, against any person
or persons violating or attempting to violate any covenants or restrictions, to restrain violation or to recover
damages, and failure to enforce any covenant, restriction or condition shall not be deemed a waiver of the
right of enforcement either with respect to the violation in question or any other violation. This Restriction
Agreement is not intended to restrict the rights of the City Council of the City of Coppell to exercise its
legislative duties and powers insofar as the Property is concerned. For further remedy, Developer, for itself,
its successors, and assigns agrees that City may withhold building permits, development approvals,
certificates of occupancy and/or final inspection necessary for the lawful use of any portion of the Property
not then in compliance with the Required Use. The rights of City under this Restriction Agreement may
not be waived or released except pursuant to an amendment or termination approved in accordance with
the provisions hereof, except by expiration of the Term.
5.2 Amendment. No amendment or termination of this Restriction Agreement shall be effective unless
and until approved by Developer and City; provided, however, City may, without the consent of Developer,
terminate and release the restrictions set forth in Section 4.1. If Developer or a subsequent owner of the
Property desires to change, amend or alter the covenants, conditions or restrictions as set forth herein,
Developer, or subsequent owner, as the case may be, shall file a written application for such change or
amendment with City, which may approve or deny such request at its sole discretion. Any change or
amendment approved by City shall not be effective unless and until an instrument executed by City’s Mayor
or City Manager is recorded in the Official Public Records in the office of the Dallas County Clerk in
accordance with this Section 5.2.
5.3 Notices. All notices, requests, demands or other communications required or permitted hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been fully and completely made when given by hand, by

(kbl:2/2/2024:4875-9992-5134, v. 1)
5.5 Governing Law. This Restriction Agreement is entered into and is intended to be performed in
the State of Texas, and the validity, enforceability, interpretation and construction hereof shall be
determined and governed by the laws (other than conflict of laws provisions) of the State of Texas. Venue
for any action under this Restriction Agreement shall be in the state district court of Dallas County, Texas.
The Parties agree to submit to the personal and subject matter jurisdiction of said court.
5.6 Recording. The Parties agree that City may record this Restriction Agreement in the Official
Public Records in the office of the Dallas County Clerk. City agrees to execute and file a release of this
Restriction Agreement in said records upon request of Developer after the expiration or termination of this
Restriction Agreement.
5.7 Covenants Run with the Property. This Restriction Agreement and the restrictions, covenants,
and conditions set forth herein are for the purpose of protecting the value and desirability of the Property
and accomplishing certain public purposes of the City of Coppell and, consequently, shall run with the
Property and be binding on Developer and all parties having all right, title, or interest in the Land, in whole
or in part, and their heirs, successors and assigns. These covenants, conditions and restrictions shall be for
the benefit of the City of Coppell, Texas. This Restriction Agreement is binding upon Developer and each
and every subsequent owner, tenant, subtenant, licensee, manager, and occupant of all or any portion of the
Property, but only during the term of such party’s ownership, tenancy, license, management or occupancy
of the Property, for which such party shall remain liable and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of City and its successors and assigns. It is expressly understood and agreed that acceptance of title to all
or a portion of the Property shall automatically, and without further acknowledgement or confirmation from
the owner, constitute such owner’s assumption of the obligations of Developer hereunder.
5.8 Severability. Invalidation of any one of these covenants, conditions, or restrictions by judgment
or court order shall in no way affect any other provisions, and all other provisions shall remain in full force
and effect.
5.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof, and no statement, promise, representation, or modification hereof by
any person, if any, and whether oral or written, shall be binding upon any Party.
5.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the Parties in separate counterparts; each of
which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute
one and the same instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof each signed by
less than all, but together signed by all of the Parties.
5.11 Employment of Undocumented Workers. During the term of this Restriction Agreement,
Developer agrees not to knowingly employ any undocumented workers and, if convicted of a violation
under 8 U.S.C. Section 1324a (f), Developer shall repay the amount of the Purchase Grant and any other
funds received by Developer from City as of the date of such violation within one hundred twenty (120)
days after the date Developer is notified by City of such violation, plus interest at the set forth in Section
3.3 until paid. Developer is not liable for a violation of this Section 5.11 in relation to any workers employed
by a subsidiary, affiliate, or franchisee of Developer or by a person with whom Developer contracts.
