performance pursuant to this Agreement shall be as set out in this Article 2. Company agrees
that should it not meet the required minimum levels of performance County may reduce the

contingent upon authority found in North Carolina General Statute 158-7.1 and other relevant

3. INDUCEMENT PACKAGE
A. COUNTY INDUCEMENT GRANT: Subject to the limitations set out herein,the County,
upon execution of this Agreement, shall provide to the Company an inducement to offset
Facility development, expansion, and acquisition costs in an amount estimated and not to exceed
Four Million Dollars($4,000,000.00)payable in five installments of approximately Eight
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($800,000.00)over a six year period. The first installment shall
occur within a reasonable time after the end of the first twelve (12)month period following the
Commencement Date and upon receipt of proof, as described in Article 5 of this Agreement, that
the minimum employment, sales, and valuation requirements referenced in Article 2 of this
Agreement have been met and that all outstanding local property Taxes on the real and business
Personal Property owned by the Company and located within Orange County, for which a bill
for such Taxes has been issued to the Company, have been paid. Subsequent annual financial
inducement installments will occur within a reasonable time after the end of the applicable
twelve (12)month period and upon the County's receipt of the proof required by Article 5 of
this Agreement. No installment shall be required to be paid until such time as County receives
proof of the payment of all outstanding property Taxes and verification of sales, employment,
and valuation levels has been submitted to the County. The final Inducement Grant amount
shall be determined based on the level at which Company achieves the valuations, sales, and
employment requirements established in this Agreement.
B. TOTAL COUNTY COMMITMENT: The amount of the Inducement Grant is based on
Company investments resulting in a real property valuation of the Property of at least Eighteen
Page 4of13
Million One Hundred Forty-four Thousand Dollars($18,144,000.00); Company investments
resulting in a Personal Property valuation of at least Eight Million Dollars($8,000,000.00);
Company sales in the amounts described in Section 2(C) of this Agreement; and Company
employing at least the number set forth in Exhibit B of Full Time Equivalent employees at the
Facility.
C. MAXIMUM COUNTY COMMITMENT: The Inducement Grant SHALL NOT
EXCEED FOUR MILLION DOLLARS ($ 4,000,000.00). This maximum
inducement amount is based on the Company meeting all requirements herein. One eighth
(12.5%)of the Inducement Grant is based on Company achieving the real property valuation
requirement, one eighth (12.5%)of the Inducement Grant is based on Company achieving the
Personal Property valuation requirement, one half(50%) on the Company achieving the sales
revenue requirement, one eighth(12.5%)on the Company achieving the minimum level of Full
Time Equivalent employees requirement, and one eighth(12.5%)on the Company achieving the
minimum wage requirement. Should Company annually fail to meet any of such requirements,
the Inducement Grant shall be reduced in a pro rata amount for the real property valuation,the
Personal Property valuation,the sales revenues,the Full Time Equivalent employees
requirement, and the minimum wage requirement.
(Example of calculation and reduction: At the end of the first year following the
Commencement Date, should Company have achieved at least$62,000,000.00 in sales revenue,
Company is entitled to 50%of the annual inducement installment. If Company has for the same
time period achieved a real property valuation of$18,144,000.00 and a Personal Property
valuation of only$4,000,000.00, Company is entitled to an additional 12.5%and 6.25%,
respectively, of the annual inducement installment. If Company has for the same time period
only employed 200 Full Time Equivalent employees, Company is entitled to an additional 8.8%
of the annual inducement installment. If Company has for the same time period paid a minimum
wage of at least Twelve Dollars ($12.00)per hour for at least 200 Full Time Equivalent
employees, Company is entitled to an additional 12.5%of the annual inducement installment.
This calculation and reduction results in an inducement installment at the conclusion of year
one of operations of 90.05%of the annual inducement installment, which equates to an amount
of approximately$720,400.00.)
4. EXPANSION OPPORTUNITY
Participation in this Agreement shall not exclude the Company from consideration for additional
inducements from the County either during or upon completion of this Agreement. Future
projects shall be considered on a case-by-case basis and induced at the discretion of the County
based on new Taxable investment and job creation in excess of the minimum levels outlined in
Article 2 above. Any such agreement shall require a separate "Performance Agreement"which
shall conform to all relevant North Carolina Statutes and/or Orange County Ordinances, Policies
or Resolutions, shall be in writing, and shall be mutually agreed upon by the Parties.
5. PROOF AND CERTIFICATION

to verify that each party's respective goals are met. Proof and certification that Company has
met the valuation, sales, and employment requirements set out in Article 2 must be provided to
