The land use restrictions shall be enforced by any owner of the Brownfields Property. The land use restrictions may also be enforced by DEQ through the remedies provided in NCGS § 130A, Article 1, Part 2 or by means of a civil action; by any unit of local government having jurisdiction over any part of the Brownfields Property; and by any person eligible for liability protection under the Brownfields Property Reuse Act who will lose liability protection if the restrictions are violated. Any attempt to cancel any or all of this Notice without the approval of the Secretary of DEQ (or its successor in function), or his/her delegate, shall be subject to enforcement by DEQ to the full extent of the law. Failure by any party required or authorized to enforce any of the above restrictions shall in no event be deemed a waiver of the right to do so thereafter as to the same violation or as to one occurring prior or subsequent thereto.

For purposes of this Agreement, DEQ relies on the following representations by Prospective Developer as to use and ownership of the Brownfields Property: a. The Brownfields Property was undeveloped vacant and wooded land prior to 1938. b. The southeastern portion of the Brownfields Property (tax parcels 05536934 and 05536945) was developed with a commercial building prior to 1951. The Woodward Warren Company, a commercial refrigeration sales and service company, occupied the southeastern portion of the Brownfields Property between at least 1956 and 1963. The 6 21052-17-060 Little Rock Road southeastern portion of the Brownfields Property was occupied by gas station which operated between 1964 and 1988. Operational names for that facility were Little Rock Crown Service Station, Little Rock Phillips 66 Service Station, and most recently, Airport Automotive. Addresses for that facility have been 6100 and 6108 Wilkinson Boulevard. The southeastern portion of the Brownfields Property has primarily remained vacant since 1988, with periodic temporary use for prefabricated residential outbuilding sales. Other businesses which previously occupied the southeastern portion of the Brownfields Property include American Buildings, TSP Enterprises, and B&R Motors. c. The northern portion of the Brownfields Property (tax parcels 05536936, 05536937, and 05536959) was developed with a residence prior to 1951. By 1968, the northern portion of the Brownfields Property was occupied by an automotive salvage yard and by 1969 included a used car dealership and various office tenants. The northern portion of the Brownfields Property was also occupied by various vehicle rental operations, automotive service and repair operations, and used car dealerships between 1988 and 2016. Morehead Auto Service and Art’s Automotive Upholstery have occupied buildings on the northern portion of the Brownfields Property between 2005 and the present. The remainder of the northern portion of the Brownfields Property has been vacant since 2016. Other names of businesses which previously occupied the northern portion of the Brownfields Property include A and A Used Cars, Nance Brothers Builders, Triangle Rent A Car, Triangle Mini Lease Service, Southern Contractors Equipment Inc., and Ford and Daughter Used Tires. 7 21052-17-060 Little Rock Road d. The southwest portion of the Brownfields Property (tax parcels 05536932 and 05536933) was developed with a commercial retail/office building in 1974 and has been occupied by various retail and office tenants since that time through the present. High tension power lines which lead to the nearby Duke Energy substation transect the southwest portion of the Brownfields Property. The Hair Network, a hair salon, has occupied the southwest portion of the Brownfields Property between 1999 and the present. Another business which previously occupied the southwestern portion of the Brownfields Property was ACS Landscaping. e. The Brownfields Property is currently owned by members of the Nance Family or members of the Nance Family in combination with the Albert Daniel Nance Family Trust. 7. Pertinent environmental information regarding the Brownfields Property and surrounding area includes the following: a. Previous environmental assessments, which included the collection of soil and groundwater samples, were conducted at the Brownfields Property from 1990 to 2018. b. According to the Environmental Reports, the following underground storage tanks (USTs) associated with the former gas station were removed from the southeastern portion of the Brownfields Property: three 6,000-gallon gasoline USTs, one 4,000-gallon diesel UST, one 250-gallon heating oil UST, one 250-gallon waste oil UST, and two 1,000-gallon orphan gasoline USTs. c. Soil and groundwater impacts were initially discovered in the southeastern portion of the Brownfields Property during the removal of a 4,000-gallon diesel UST in 8 21052-17-060 Little Rock Road December 1990 (UST Incident No. 6951). Subsequently, one 250-gallon heating oil UST and three 6,000-gallon gasoline USTs were removed from the southeastern portion of the Brownfields Property in March 1992. Free phase product was observed in the tank basin at the time of removal and later free phase product was observed in monitoring wells in the southeastern portion of the Brownfields Property. According to the Environmental Reports, approximately 900 gallons of product and petroleum-impacted groundwater were removed from the tank basin and approximately 200 cubic yards of petroleum-impacted soil were removed for disposal at that time. Free phase product recovery efforts were conducted in the southeastern portion of the Brownfields Property associated with the former gas station between 1992 and 2015. A Notice of Residual Petroleum was recorded by DEQ’s UST Section regarding UST Incident No. 6951. d. Source area soil remedial activities associated with the former gas station were conducted at the Brownfields Property in January and August 2014 and included the excavation and disposal of approximately 2,078 tons of petroleum-impacted soil. Excavation confirmation sample results indicated that two of the ten soil samples contained petroleum- related compounds at concentrations above the Division of Waste Management Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch Commercial/Industrial Preliminary Soil Remediation Goals. e. Based on the results of the most recent groundwater sampling event associated with the former gas station conducted in March 2016, groundwater contamination appears to be migrating onto the Brownfields Property from the east adjacent Airport Express gas station (UST Incident No. 36360). 9 21052-17-060 Little Rock Road 8. The most recent environmental sampling at the Brownfields Property reported in the Environmental Reports occurred in February 2018. The tables set forth in Exhibit 2 to this Agreement present contaminants present at the Brownfields Property above applicable standards or screening levels for each media sampled. 9. For purposes of this Agreement DEQ relies on Prospective Developer’s representations that Prospective Developer's involvement with the Brownfields Property has been limited to obtaining or commissioning the Environmental Reports, preparing and submitting to DEQ a Brownfields Property Application (BPA) dated October 23, 2017, an Amended Brownfields Property Application dated December 20, 2017, and contracting to purchase the Brownfields Property on January 23, 2017. 10. Prospective Developer has provided DEQ with information, or sworn certifications regarding that information on which DEQ relies for purposes of this Agreement, sufficient to demonstrate that: a. Prospective Developer and any parent, subsidiary, or other affiliate has substantially complied with federal and state laws, regulations and rules for protection of the environment, and with the other agreements and requirements cited at NCGS § 130A- 310.32(a)(1); b. As a result of the implementation of this Agreement, the Brownfields Property will be suitable for the uses specified in the Agreement while fully protecting public health and the environment; c.

Within 30 days after doing so, the Prospective Developer shall provide DEQ a report, setting forth the procedures and 18 21052-17-060 Little Rock Road results. m. The owner of any portion of the Brownfields Property where any existing, or subsequently installed, DEQ-approved monitoring well is damaged by the owner, its contractors, or its tenants shall be responsible for repair of any such wells to DEQ’s written satisfaction and within a time period acceptable to DEQ, unless compliance with this Land Use Restriction is waived in writing by DEQ in advance. n. Any deed or other instrument conveying an interest in the Brownfields Property shall contain the following notice: “This property is subject to the Brownfields Agreement attached as Exhibit A to the Notice of Brownfields Property recorded in the Mecklenburg County land records, Book ____, Page ____.” A copy of any such instrument shall be sent to the persons listed in Section XV (Notices and Submissions), though financial figures and other confidential information related to the conveyance may be redacted to the extent said redactions comply with the confidentiality and trade secret provisions of the North Carolina Public Records Law. The owner conveying an interest may use the following mechanisms to comply with the obligations of this subparagraph: (i) If every lease and rider is identical in form, the owner conveying an interest may provide DEQ with copies of a form lease or rider evidencing compliance with this subparagraph, in lieu of sending copies of actual, executed leases, to the persons listed in Section XV (Notice and Submissions); or (ii) The owner conveying an interest may provide abstracts of leases, rather than full copies of said leases, to the persons listed in Section XV. o. During January of each year after the year in which the Notice referenced 19 21052-17-060 Little Rock Road below in paragraph 20 is recorded, the owner of any part of the Brownfields Property as of January 1st of that year shall submit a notarized Land Use Restrictions Update (“LURU”) to DEQ, and to the chief public health and environmental officials of Mecklenburg County, certifying that, as of said January 1st, the Notice of Brownfields Property containing these land use restrictions remains recorded at the Mecklenburg County Register of Deeds office and that the land use restrictions are being complied with.
