Re:
Proposed Development Agreement by and among Comerica Bank-Texas, The
Parks of Coppell Trust, Overton Bank & Trust and Wendy's International,
Inc.
Dear Richard:
Pursuant to your request~ the undersigned reviewed the proposed draft of the
Development Agreement by and among Comerlea Bank-Texas, The Parks of Coppell Trust,
Overton Bank & Trust and Wendy's International, Inc. and provide the following comments.
While the Development Agreement does not specifically include the City as a party,
we offer the following comments regarding the acceptance and maintenance of the North-
South Road and the sanitary sewer line. Paragraph 8 of the proposed agreement provides
the City, by separate agreement, has agreed the City will accept the road and sanitary sewer
line as public improvements. While this statement is not untrue, the City will, after
completion of the North-South Road and the sanitary sewer line, and following inspection
to ensure compliance with the construction standards, will accept the same as public
improvements. The City will assume the normal obligation to maintain the same after
expiration of the required maintenance bonds. Paragraph 8, to the extent as necessary,
should be amended accordingly. The City will provide a letter indicating the same.
Finally, by separate letter, we previously provided a draft of a Development
Agreement regarding the construction of the proposed East-West Road and required
landscaping. We have this afternoon received your response to the Development
Agreement and will review your proposed changes. We note, however, that the
Development Agreement concerns the construction of the East-West Road and did not
address the northern portion of the North-South Road, which we understood would be a

part of the main Development Agreement which you have prepared. If any portion of the
North-South Road is to be part of the East-West Road Development Agreement, please
advise the undersigned as soon as possible.
Thank you for your attention in this matter. If you have any questions in this regard,
please don't hesitate to contact me.
Very truly yours,
NICHOLS, JACKSON, DILLARD,
