Each owner of a residence which is located within the area identified as being within one thousand (1,000) feet of the property lines of the Landfill Property as of the date that the siting application is filed (hereinafter "Eligible Residence "), is eligible to qualify for the benefits of this Residential Property Value Protection Plan (hereinafter "Plan"), subject to the terms and conditions stated in this Plan, and subject to the owner's compliance with the requirements of this Plan. The benefits of the Residential Property Value Protection Plan shall inure to an owner's lawful heirs or devisees who inherit the subject property during the time this Agreement is in effect. Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Host City Agreement between the City and Fox Moraine, LLC. 1. General Procedure for Qualification. A. Within ten (10) days following the Anniversary Date, Fox Moraine, LLC shall notify each Eligible Residence, by certified mail, about the Residential Property Value Protection Plan and how to enroll in the Plan. Each Eligible Residence must formally enroll in the Plan, following the procedures outlined in the notification, within 365 days of receiving the notification. If such enrollment is not made within the 365 day timeframe, the Eligible Residence, and all subsequent owners, will no longer be eligible to qualify for the Plan. B. To qualify for fair market value protection under this Plan, the owner must place the Eligible Residence on the market for sale. The owner shall provide Fox Moraine, LLC with the name of the broker (if any) with which such residence is listed for sale, the proposed terms of sale, and the date on which the residence was placed on the market. C. Within sixty (60) days of such notice, Fox Moraine, LLC shall cause the Eligible Residence to be appraised at its fair market value both (1) as of the date the Eligible Residence was placed on the market, and, (2) as of the date the Eligible Residence was placed on the market, but making the sole additional assumption that the Landfill did not exist. The former value shall represent the "Diminished Value" of the Eligible Residence. If the Diminished Value falls within 5 percent of the latter value, then no impact shall be deemed to have occurred, and no payment shall be due to the owner under this Plan. The appraisal shall take into account all factors having a material effect on the value of the Eligible Residence, including, but not limited to, liens, easements and other encumbrances on the Eligible Residence. D. Fox Moraine, LLC shall provide a copy of such appraisal to the affected owner within ten (10) days of the completion of said appraisal. In the event that the affected owner disagrees with the values set forth in Fox Moraine, LLC's appraisal or otherwise wishes to have his or her own appraisal made, the owner may have an appraiser of his or her own choosing value the subject Eligible Residence in the 16 i same manner as it was valued by the appraiser for Fox Moraine, LLC. The owner shall have such appraisal performed anytime between a date thirty (30) days prior to offering said Eligible Residence for sale as provided in Subparagraph (A) above, to a date forty-five (45) days following the receipt of Fox Moraine, LLC's appraisal. E. All appraisers shall be duly licensed to appraise residences in Illinois, and shall work independently. The cost for appraisals made under Subsection (C) above shall be paid by Fox Moraine, LLC. The cost for appraisals made under Subsection (D) above shall be paid by the owner. 2. Determination of Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Section 2 and Section 3 below, the term "Fair Market Value" shall mean the value of the Eligible Residence as if the Landfill did not exist. Fair Market Value shall be established by: A. A single appraisal under Subsection 1 (C) above if such appraisal is acceptable to the owner; or B. Agreement by both appraisers retained under Subsection 1 (C) and (D) above. If the appraisers retained under Subsections 1 (C) and (D) above do not agree, but the lower of the appraised Fair Market Values is ninety (90) percent or more of the higher of such values, the Fair Market Value shall be deemed to be the average of the Fair Market Values determined by said appraisals. If the lower of the appraised Fair Market Values is less than ninety (90) percent of the higher, a third appraiser shall be selected by Fox Moraine, LLC and the owner by alternately striking names from a list of appraisers developed jointly by Fox Moraine, LLC and the owner. The third appraiser shall review the existing appraisal reports and determine the Fair Market Value of the residence. This Fair Market Value shall not exceed the higher nor be less than the lower of the Fair Market Values set forth in the two existing appraisal reports. The Fair Market Value established by the third appraisal shall be binding on Fox Moraine, LLC and owner. The cost of the third appraisal shall be shared equally be the Fox Moraine, LLC and the owner. The Diminished Value of the Eligible Residence, which is defined in Subsection I (C) above, shall be established in the same manner as described in this Section 2. 3. Obliiation to Pav Compensation. In order to receive compensation under the Plan, an Eligible Residence must have been continuously offered for sale for a period of one (1) year. At the end of the one year period, compensation may be paid based on the following: A.

The owner receives a Bona Fide Offer ( "Offer ") to purchase the Eligible Residence 17 for cash for a price that is less than the Fair Market Value. Bona Fide Offer shall ( be defined as an arms length transaction documented by a standard real estate sales agreement and supported by a reasonable earnest money deposit. The owner shall then notify Fox Moraine, LLC of the Offer and the amount thereof and Fox Moraine, LLC shall have ten (10) days to elect in writing to purchase the Eligible Residence for a cash price equal to the amount of such Offer, plus $500.00. If Fox Moraine, LLC exercises such election, the owner shall sell and Fox Moraine, LLC shall purchase the Eligible Residence within thirty (30) days after Fox Moraine, LLC exercises its option (or on such other date mutually agreed to by the parties). At the closing, Fox Moraine, LLC shall pay the owner an additional amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value over the price set forth in the Offer, provided, however, that such amount payable by Fox Moraine, LLC to the owner shall not be -in excess of the Fair Market Value less the Diminished Value. If Fox Moraine, LLC does not exercise its election to purchase the Eligible Residence, the owner may sell the Eligible Residence to the purchaser identified in the Offer, and Fox Moraine, LLC shall pay the owner within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of the closing an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value over the price set forth in the Offer; provided, however, that such amount payable by Fox Moraine, LLC to the owner shall not be in excess of the Fair Market Value less the Diminished Value.

E. In the event any offer to purchase an Eligible Residence provides for seller financing, adjustments shall be made to determine the equivalent present day cash value. 4. Scone of Agreement. A. Only owners of record as of the date Fox Moraine, LLC files a siting permit application with the County to develop the Landfill, or any party inheriting an interest in an Eligible Residence by reason of the death of such an owner, shall be eligible for residence value guarantees under this Plan. B. Payment of residence value guarantees shall be made only once for any individual tax parcel. In the event that a portion of a parcel is offered by the owner for sale, 18 Fox Moraine, LLC, at its discretion and to avoid subsequent appraisal costs, may ( decide to have appraisals made for that portion and simultaneously for the rest of the parcel. If Fox Moraine, LLC chooses to proceed in this manner, it shall make any payment as if both the portion severed and the rest of the parcel had been conveyed at that time. C. The compensation payable under this Plan shall apply only to conveyance of a fee simple interest made by deed or land contract or similar instruments, and shall not apply to conveyances of leasehold interests. 5. Miscellaneous Provisions. A.
