Program
6. 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 historically used for residential or agricultural
purposes. The largest parcel, formerly known as the Performance Auto Mall, located at 1806
Fordham Blvd was first developed for automotive purposes in 1964 when it was operated by
Harris Conner Chevrolet. Since 1964, this parcel was used for automotive sales, service and
repair, with expanding automotive operations over time including several dealerships (Chevrolet,
Subaru, Porsche, Acura, BMW) in six buildings totaling about 106,000 square feet.
Decommissioning of the automotive operations was complete by 2018.
b. The 130 Old Durham Road parcel historically was residential until at least
1993. It was purchased by the Hendrick Automotive Group in 1997, and a commercial building
was constructed on its western portion by 2002 with the remainder of the parcel a paved parking
lot. The onsite building was demolished in 2006. By 2008, the entirety of this parcel consisted of
an asphalt parking lot that was used by Performance Auto Mall employees.
c. The parcel located at 120 Old Durham Road was historically cleared by about
1955, but was undeveloped until 1982, when it was used for residential purposes. The former
residential building at 120 Old Durham Road was a three-story building with a basement and
was reportedly moved there from another location in 1982. A portion of this property was also
used as a violin and music store, but such use ceased sometime prior to the Prospective
5
Performance Auto/20078-16-068/230ct2020
Developer purchasing this parcel.
d. The 126 Old Durham Road parcel was first developed with a ranch -style house
in 1956. Reportedly it was used prior to 2004 as an antique store and from 2004 through 2009,
as a school/daycare. From 2009 on, the structure was vacant.
e. The Prospective Developer purchased the 1810 Fordham Boulevard and the
130 Old Durham Road parcels from the previous owner, Hendrick Automotive Group
(Hendrick), on January 19, 2017. Under a lease agreement with Hendrick, after the Prospective
Developer purchased these parcels, the automotive operations were allowed to continue under a
DEQ-approved Site Operations Plan designed to minimize the potential for a release from these
operations until the existing lease expired. The Prospective Developer purchased the 120 and 126
Old Durham Road parcels from different individuals on January 17, 2017 and January 19, 2017,
respectively. The Brownfields Property was sold to Agree Chapel Hill NC of Bloomfield Hills,
Michigan on September 11, 2020.
7. Pertinent environmental information regarding the Brownfields Property and
surrounding area includes the following:
a. Use of a portion of the Brownfields Property for automotive sales, service, and
repair operations included the onsite handling and storage of a variety of products and waste
materials including oils, solvents, antifreeze, cleaning compounds, batteries, and tires in the
various service garages, car wash area, collision center, paint mixing room, and/or parts
department. Motor oil was stored in up to seven 500-gallon above ground storage tanks (ASTs),
various cleaning compounds, lubricants, and grease were stored in multiple 5-gallon to 55-gallon
N
Performance Auto/20078-16-068/230ct2020
drums, waste oil was stored in four 500-gallon ASTs and one 250-gallon AST, antifreeze was
stored in two 500-gallon ASTs, and paint and solvent waste was stored in 55-gallon drums.
Hydraulic lifts and oil/water separators were also in use throughout the service areas.
b. Gasoline and waste oil were also stored historically in underground storage
tanks (USTs) at the Brownfields Property. Over the years, one 3,000-gallon and two 1,100-
gallon gasoline USTs, and one 1,000-gallon waste oil UST were in use. There are two DEQ UST
Section leaking underground storage tanks (LUST) and one leaking above ground storage tank
(LAST) regulatory incidents associated with the Brownfields Property.
c. LUST Incident No. 16492 is related to releases from two 1,100-gallon gasoline
USTs that were discovered upon removal of the USTs on March 28, 1995. Free product was
noted in the excavation pit from the UST removal. Free product recovery was conducted at least
through 2003 in this this area, although recent concentrations in groundwater in certain wells
indicates that some free product may remain on the groundwater table. This release was accepted
into the DEQ's predecessor (DENR) UST Trust Fund Program. Eligibility for reimbursement
under the UST Trust Fund was transferred from Hendrick to LG 1810 Fordham Boulevard, LLC
effective March 27, 2017. This incident is still open; however, soils were over -excavated, an in -
situ chemical remedial compound, OBC+, was placed at the bottom of the excavation, and
confirmatory soil sampling was conducted. Two off -site water supply wells associated with this
incident have been closed. The UST Section incident will be closed once this Agreement is
recorded at the Orange County Register of Deeds, and such documentation is provided to the
UST Section.
7
Performance Auto/20078-16-068/230ct2020
d. LUST Incident No. 8462 was reported on June 14, 1991 when contaminated
soil was discovered during the removal of a 1,000-gallon waste oil UST on May 3, 1991. The
contaminated soils were excavated and transported offsite for disposal. The regulatory incident
was closed out on July 15, 1992.
e. The 3,000-gallon gasoline UST, formerly located near the car wash building,
and its associated product lines and dispenser island were removed from the Brownfields
Property in August 2002. No contamination was observed upon removal and confirmation soil
sampling did not result in detections of contaminants above laboratory detection limits. A No
Further Action letter for this UST closure was issued by the DENR (DEQ's predecessor) UST
Section on September 16, 2002.
f. LAST Incident No. 86219 is associated with petroleum releases from four on -
site in -ground hydraulic lifts and a former oil -water separator that was discovered in March
2002. The contaminated soils were excavated and about 39.5 tons of contaminated soil was
transported offsite for disposal. The UST Section closed out the incident on July 6, 2005. All
remaining in -ground hydraulic lifts were removed from the Brownfields Property in 2009 and no
additional petroleum -impacted soil was observed at that time.
g. From the date of purchase until May 19, 2018, the Prospective Developer
leased the former Performance Auto Mall parcels to Hendrick, the former owner/occupant and
responsible party for the site under a DEQ-approved Site Operations Plan (SOP) (McAdams,
November 29, 2016). The SOP was prepared to invoke spill prevention and sampling measures
designed to prevent additional releases to environmental media and to evaluate whether such
Performance Auto/20078-16-068/230ct2020
releases occurred during this lease period, and to address decommissioning activities. During
this time, the Prospective Developer conducted periodic oversight of the operations.
h. Decommissioning operations of the former Performance Auto Mall facility
were performed by the Hendrick in April and May 2018. These included the removal of above-
ground hydraulic lifts, ASTs, drums and containers of automotive fluids, batteries, and other
materials associated with operation of the automotive facility; final cleanout of the floor drain
and oil/water separator and floor drain systems, including the car wash facility; the pressure
washing of the secondary containment structures for the ASTs; and the removal of oily
wastewater from the cleaning operations. Hendrick vacated the premises on May 19, 2018.
i. From October 2018 through April 2019, under the requisite permits, DEQ-
approved work plans, or a DEQ-approved Environmental Management Plan (EMP) required by
subparagraph 15.b. below, the Prospective Developer completed building demolition activities,
removed concrete floor slabs, footings, and subsurface utilities from the former Performance
Mall operations area, reused concrete material under certain areas of the redevelopment,
excavated source areas of impacted soil and transported such soil and other contaminated
materials for off -site disposal, and abandoned known onsite monitoring wells and one water
supply well on the Brownfields Property in accordance with 15A NCAC 02C.0100.
j. From January 2019 through April 2019, the Prospective Developer removed
several sub -grade features, including a hydraulic elevator pit, oil/water separators, and up to
approximately 2,800 tons of petroleum -impacted soil from several source area excavations,
including former UST, AST, and sanitary sewer areas on the Brownfields Property. Impacted
0
Performance Auto/20078-16-068/230ct2020
soil was transported to Earthtec in Sanford, NC for offsite disposal. The Prospective Developer
also treated two backfilled excavations with a chemical oxidation product, OBC+, to reduce
concentrations of petroleum in groundwater. This included the excavation of petroleum -
impacted soils and use of OBC+ for the former UST release area in connection with LUST
Incident No. 16492 discussed above.
k. Under the Revised Request for Managed Reuse (McAdams, March 8, 2019), the
Prospective Developer segregated visibly or presumed contaminated building materials such as
concrete and tile from non -contaminated materials. Testing was used to evaluate what materials
could be used for reuse on the Brownfields Property. This material was crushed onsite and
reused as aggregate material under paved surfaces, behind retaining walls, and below the
building pad for the grocery store.
1. On May 22, 2020, the Prospective Developer submitted a vapor intrusion
mitigations system (VIMs) design in accordance with the requirements of subparagraph 15.f.iii.
below for the entire grocery store footprint, which was found to be in compliance with the
DEQ's Vapor Intrusion Mitigation System (VIMS) Design Submittal New Construction Minimum
Requirements Checklist (March 2018).
8. The most recent environmental sampling at the Brownfields Property reported in the
Environmental Reports occurred on July 23, 2019. 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
10
Performance Auto/20078-16-068/230ct2020
representations that Prospective Developer's involvement with the Brownfields Property has
been limited to obtaining or commissioning the Environmental Reports, preparing and

Road parcel of the Brownfields Property.
c. From the date of purchase until May 19, 2018, the Prospective Developer
leased the former Performance Auto Mall parcels to Hendrick for continued automotive
operations until their lease expired, and conducted periodic oversight of the decommissioning of
the former Performance Auto Mall facility conducted by Hendrick.
d. From October 2018 through April 2019, under the requisite permits, DEQ-
approved work plans, or a DEQ-approved Environmental Management Plan (EMP) required by
subparagraph 15.b. below, the Prospective Developer completed building demolition activities,
remedial activities, and site construction preparation work.
e. On May 22, 2020, the Prospective Developer submitted a vapor intrusion

VIII. CERTIFICATION
24. By entering into this Agreement, the Prospective Developer certifies that, without
DEQ approval, it will make no use of the Brownfields Property other than that committed to in
the Brownfields Property Application dated September 22, 2016 for the initial two parcels and a
subsequent Brownfields Property Application dated May 4, 2017 for two additional parcels, by
which it applied for this Agreement. That use is a retail grocery store with associated parking,
and with prior written DEQ approval, other commercial uses. Prospective Developer also
certifies that to the best of its knowledge and belief it has fully and accurately disclosed to DEQ
24
Performance Auto/20078-16-068/230ct2020
all information known to Prospective Developer and all information in the possession or control
of its officers, directors, employees, contractors and agents which relates in any way to any past
use of regulated substances or known contaminants at the Brownfields Property and to its
qualification for this Agreement, including the requirement that it not have caused or contributed
to the contamination at the Brownfields Property.
IX. DEO'S COVENANT NOT TO SUE AND RESERVATION OF RIGHTS
25. Unless any of the following apply, Prospective Developer shall not be liable to DEQ,
and DEQ covenants not to sue Prospective Developer, for remediation of the Brownfields
Property except as specified in this Agreement:
a. The Prospective Developer fails to comply with this Agreement.
b. The activities conducted on the Brownfields Property by or under the control
or direction of the Prospective Developer increase the risk of harm to public health or the
environment, in which case Prospective Developer shall be liable for remediation of the areas of
the Brownfields Property, remediation of which is required by this Agreement, to the extent
necessary to eliminate such risk of harm to public health or the environment.
c. A land use restriction set out in the Notice of Brownfields Property required
under NCGS § 130A-310.35 is violated while the Prospective Developer owns the Brownfields
Property, in which case the Prospective Developer shall be responsible for remediation of the
Brownfields Property to unrestricted use standards.
d. The Prospective Developer knowingly or recklessly provided false information
that formed a basis for this Agreement or knowingly or recklessly offers false information to
25
Performance Auto/20078-16-068/230ct2020
demonstrate compliance with this Agreement or fails to disclose relevant information about
contamination at the Brownfields Property.
e. New information indicates the existence of previously unreported
contaminants or an area of previously unreported contamination on or associated with the
Brownfields Property that has not been remediated to unrestricted use standards, unless this
Agreement is amended to include any previously unreported contaminants and any additional
areas of contamination. If this Agreement sets maximum concentrations for contaminants, and
new information indicates the existence of previously unreported areas of these contaminants,
further remediation shall be required only if the areas of previously unreported contaminants
raise the risk of the contamination to public health or the environment to a level less protective of
public health and the environment than that required by this Agreement.
f. The level of risk to public health or the environment from contaminants is
unacceptable at or in the vicinity of the Brownfields Property due to changes in exposure
conditions, including (i) a change in land use that increases the probability of exposure to
contaminants at or in the vicinity of the Brownfields Property or (ii) the failure of remediation to
mitigate risks to the extent required to make the Brownfields Property fully protective of public
health and the environment as planned in this Agreement.
g. DEQ obtains new information about a contaminant associated with the
Brownfields Property or exposures at or around the Brownfields Property that raises the risk to
public health or the environment associated with the Brownfields Property beyond an acceptable
range and in a manner or to a degree not anticipated in this Agreement.
26
Performance Auto/20078-16-068/23Oct2020
h. The Prospective Developer fails to file a timely and proper Notice of
Brownfields Property under NCGS § 130A-310.35.
26. Except as may be provided herein, DEQ reserves its rights against Prospective
Developer as to liabilities beyond the scope of the Act.
27. This Agreement does not waive any applicable requirement to obtain a permit,
license or certification, or to comply with any and all other applicable law, including the North
Carolina Environmental Policy Act, NCGS § I I3A-1, et seq.
28. Consistent with NCGS § 130A-310.33, the liability protections provided herein, and
any statutory limitations in paragraphs 25 through 27 above, apply to all of the persons listed in
NCGS § 130A-310.33, including future owners of the Brownfields Property, to the same extent
as Prospective Developer, so long as these persons are not otherwise potentially responsible
parties or parents, subsidiaries, or affiliates of potentially responsible parties.
X. PROSPECTIVE DEVELOPER'S COVENANT NOT TO SUE
29. In consideration of DEQ's Covenant Not To Sue in Section IX of this Agreement
and in recognition of the absolute State immunity provided in NCGS § 130A-310.37(b), the
Prospective Developer hereby covenants not to sue and not to assert any claims or causes of
action against DEQ, its authorized officers, employees, or representatives with respect to any
action implementing the Act, including negotiating, entering, monitoring or enforcing this
Agreement or the above -referenced Notice of Brownfields Property.
27
Performance Auto/20078-16-068/230ct2020
XI. PARTIES BOUND
30. This Agreement shall apply to and be binding upon DEQ, and on the Prospective
Developer, its officers, directors, employees, and agents. Each Party's signatory to this
Agreement represents that she or he is fully authorized to enter into the terms and conditions of

XII. DISCLAIMER
31. Prospective Developer and DEQ agree that this Agreement meets the requirements of
the Act, including but not limited to the requirements set forth in NCGS § 130A-310.32(a)(2).
However, this Agreement in no way constitutes a finding by DEQ as to the risks to public health
and the environment which may be posed by regulated substances at the Brownfields Property, a
representation by DEQ that the Brownfields Property is fit for any particular purpose, nor a
waiver of Prospective Developer's duty to seek applicable permits or of the provisions of NCGS
§ 130A-310.37.
32. Except for the land use restrictions set forth in paragraph 15 above and NCGS §
130A-310.33(a)(l)-(5)'s provision of the Act's liability protection to certain persons to the same
extent as to a prospective developer, no rights, benefits or obligations conferred or imposed upon
Prospective Developer under this Agreement are conferred or imposed upon any other person.
XIII. DOCUMENT RETENTION
33. The Prospective Developer agrees to retain and make available to DEQ all business
and operating records, contracts, site studies and investigations, remediation reports, and
documents generated by and/or in the control of the Prospective Developer, its affiliates or

subsidiaries relating to storage, generation, use, disposal and management of regulated
substances at the Brownfields Property, including without limitation all Material Safety Data
Sheets or Safety Data Sheets, for six (6) years following the effective date of this Agreement,
unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties. Said records may be retained electronically
such that they can be retrieved and submitted to DEQ upon request. At the end of six (6) years,
the Prospective Developer shall notify DEQ of the location of such documents and shall provide
DEQ with an opportunity to copy any documents at the expense of DEQ. By entering into this
Agreement, Prospective Developer waives no rights of confidentiality or privilege provided by
the North Carolina Public Records Act or otherwise and, at the time DEQ requests to copy or
inspect said documents, Prospective Developer shall provide DEQ with a log of documents
withheld from DEQ, including a specific description of the document(s) and the alleged legal
basis upon which they are being withheld. To the extent DEQ retains any copies of such
documents, Prospective Developer retains all rights it then may have to seek protection from
disclosure of such documents as confidential business information.
XIV. PAYMENT OF ENFORCEMENT COSTS
34. If the Prospective Developer fails to comply with the terms of this Agreement,
including, but not limited to, the provisions of Section V (Work to be Performed), it shall be
liable for all litigation and other enforcement costs incurred by DEQ to enforce this Agreement
or otherwise obtain compliance.
