Assignment of Construction-Related Contracts. Effective upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower hereby assigns to the City (without limiting in any manner any other assignment thereof previously or contemporaneously made by the Borrower to the City) all of the Borrower's interest in all contracts relating to the construction of the Improvements, but this assignment shall not, in the absence of affirmative written ratification of any contract by the City, be deemed to impose upon the City any of the Borrower's obligations under any such contract. A ratification of one or more contracts shall not constitute the ratification of any other contracts. The Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints the City its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution in the Property to complete the Improvements in the name of the Borrower. The Borrower hereby empowers said attorney as follows: (a) to use any funds of the Borrower, including any funds which may remain undisbursed hereunder, for the purpose of completing the Improvements in the manner called for by the Plans; (b) to make such additions, changes, and corrections in the Plans as shall be necessary or desirable to complete the Improvements; (c) to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, architects, and inspectors as shall be required for said purposes; (d) to pay, settle, or compromise all existing bills and claims which may be liens against the Improvements, or as may be necessary or desirable, in the sole discretion of the City, for the completion of the Improvements or for the clearance of title; (e) to take over and use all or any part of the labor, materials, supplies and equipment contracted for, owned by, or under the control of the Borrower, whether or not previously incorporated into the Improvements; (f) to execute all applications and certificates in the name of the Borrower which may be required by any of the contract documents; (g) to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the Property or the construction of the Improvements and to take such action and require such performance as the City shall deem necessary under any guaranty of completion; and (h) to do any and every act with respect to construction or completion of the Improvements which the Borrower might do in its own behalf, including without limitation, execution, acknowledgment, and delivery of all instruments, documents, and papers in the name of the Borrower as may be necessary or desirable, in the sole discretion of the City. It is further understood and agreed that this power of attorney, which shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest, cannot be revoked. All sums so expended by the City shall be deemed to have been disbursed to the Borrower and secured by the Deed of Trust and any other Loan Documents and shall be deemed a necessary expenditure for the preservation of the City's security. The Borrower hereby also assigns and quitclaims to the City all sums undisbursed under the Loan, with such assignment and quitclaim to be effective only upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. The City may require the General Contractor and the Borrower's architect, if any, to execute documentation evidencing their consent to this assignment, and failure of either General Contractor or architect to give such consent shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.
