                                    AGREEMENT

         1. Purpose and Effect. The purpose and effect of this Amendment shall

         2. San Elijo Road Improvements. The provisions below are hereby
inserted following subparagraph "m" of Section A.1 at page 5 of Exhibit "B,"
entitled "Schedule of Performance":

         n. Upon the earlier of thirty (30) days from the effective date of the
         Amendment, or the issuance of a residential building permit for the
         1,350th equivalent single family dwelling unit, excluding therefrom
         building permits issued for Area R, construction offices, model homes
         or affordable units as described in the first full paragraph of page 1
         of this Exhibit "B" (hereafter "Equivalent Building Permit"), Owner
         will submit to CDFG and USF&WS (as defined in Section 5.11 of the
         Development Amendment and hereafter referred to as "Resource
         Agencies"), and any other governmental agency with lawful jurisdiction
         (collectively "Regulatory Agencies"), applications necessary for the
         improvement of that portion of San Elijo Road (formerly known as
         Questhaven Road) westerly of the Project's western boundary and
         easterly the eastern boundary of the University Commons Specific Plan
         (hereafter, the "San Elijo Road Dip") necessary to construct the
         segment to the standards identified in City Resolution 99-5317, adopted
         October 26, 1999 (hereafter, the "Mitigation Monitoring Program").

         o. Upon the earlier of December 1, 2003, or the issuance of the 2,000th
         Equivalent Building Permit, Owner will submit to the Resource Agencies

         Elijo Road easterly of the Project's eastern boundary and westerly of
         the existing terminus of Twin Oaks Valley Road (hereafter, "San Elijo
         Road East"), necessary to construct the segment to the standards
         identified in the Mitigation Monitoring Program.


                                       2


         p. Owner will submit to the City an application to amend CFD 99-01 as
         needed to generate the San Elijo Road CFD Funds, defined in Exhibit
         "C", Section 11 hereof, upon the earlier of January 31, 2004, or the
         issuance of the 2000th Equivalent Building Permit (the "CFD
         Amendment"). The CFD Amendment will not propose to exceed an aggregate
         1.75% maximum tax rate for the projected home sales prices. In the
         event the City and/or Agency do not timely approve the CFD Amendment in
         the form submitted by Owner, Owner shall have no obligation to provide
         Owner's Advance or Owner's Contribution pursuant to Sections 11.2 and
         11.3 of Exhibit "C".

         q. Upon the earlier of March 30, 2004, or the issuance of the 2000th
         Equivalent Building Permit, Owner will submit to the City a complete
         design for the San Elijo Road Dip and San Elijo Road East in a form
         substantially consistent with existing draft plans exchanged by the
         City and Owner. The City will determine whether the submittal is
         complete pursuant to existing plan check application procedures. Owner
         will promptly respond to the City's reasonable requests for additional
         information necessary to insure a complete design submittal. City plan
         check and inspection fees are inapplicable to the subject improvements
         and will not be imposed.

         r. Owner will construct the San Elijo Road Dip improvements upon the
         earlier of July 30, 2004, or the issuance of the 2,000th Equivalent
         Building Permit. Owner's obligation to commence physical construction
         is conditioned upon the City's acquisition of all required rights of
         way, the issuance of all necessary Regulatory Agency permits and
         approvals, including without limitation those required from the
         Resource Agencies, and the City/Agency approval of the CFD Amendment.

         s. Possession of rights-of-way necessary for the construction of San
         Elijo Road East will be acquired by the City, using its powers of
         eminent domain if necessary, at no expense to Owner, upon the earlier
         of September 30, 2004, or the issuance of the 2,100th Equivalent
         Building Permit. Owner will cause plats and legal descriptions to be
         prepared, the cost of which shall be reimbursed as a component of
         Owner's Advance, defined at Section 11.3 of Exhibit "C" hereof.

         t. Owner will commence construction of San Elijo Road East not later
         than January 31, 2005, provided that the City has acquired all
         necessary rights of way, and all necessary permits and approvals,
         including without limitation (i) permits and approvals necessary for
         the grading of all of Phase 3 of the Project, and (ii) the CFD
         Amendment, have been issued by all governmental agencies with
         jurisdiction over the improvements, including without limitation the
         City, Agency and Resource Agencies. Following commencement of
         construction Owner thereafter will diligently pursue construction to
         completion in accordance with the Development Agreement. Owner's
         obligation to continue construction once commenced is conditioned upon
         the availability of the City/Agency Contribution, as defined in Section
         11.1 of Exhibit "C," sufficient to complete the improvements.

                                       3


         3. Satisfaction of Fair Share Funding Requirement. The parties agree
that this Amendment constitutes satisfaction of the "Fair Share Funding
Mechanism" requirement contained in Section A.1.h at page 4 of Exhibit "B" of
the Development Agreement.

         4. Tolling Extension. The following provision is added as Section A.3
at page 6 of Exhibit "B":

         3. Tolling Extension. Owner's obligations, the building permit
         thresholds and target dates set forth in Section A.1, Subparagraphs "n"
         through "t" of this Exhibit "B" are deemed extended and excused in the
         event Owner is unable to satisfy its obligations thereunder due to
         circumstances beyond the reasonable control of Owner ("Tolling
         Extension"). The Tolling Extension will be limited to the time period
         during which the obligation(s) at issue may not reasonably be
         satisfied. For example, the inability to timely obtain Regulatory
         Agency or other governmental permits and approvals necessary to grade
         all of Phase 3 of the Project or to construct the San Elijo Road Dip or
         San Elijo Road East will activate the Tolling Extension. During the
         Tolling Extension Owner may continue to develop the Project and obtain
         building permits uninterrupted provided, however, that under no
         circumstances may Owner exceed the building permit thresholds contained
         in the Development Agreement and related Project entitlements, and
         further provided that Owner continues to diligently pursue the
         satisfaction of the item(s) delayed during the Tolling Extension. The
         parties acknowledge that pursuant to the Development Agreement Owner
         had no affirmative duty to perform the obligations contained in Section
         A.1, Subparagraphs "n" through "t" on the terms and conditions
         established in this Amendment.

         5. San Elijo Road Financing. The provisions below are hereby inserted
following Section 10 at page 11 of Exhibit "C," entitled "Questhaven/Twin Oaks
Valley Corridor Public Facilities Financing Plan":

         11. SAN ELIJO ROAD DIP/SAN ELIJO ROAD EAST FINANCING.

         In satisfaction of the "fair share funding mechanism" requirement
         contained in Section A.1.h at page 4 of Exhibit "B" of the Development
         Agreement, the parties have agreed upon the financing of San Elijo Road
         improvements, including the San Elijo Road Dip and San Elijo Road East
         (collectively, "San Elijo Road Improvements") as follows:

         11.1 City/Agency Contribution. The City and Agency will fund the Actual
         Costs, as defined in Exhibit "D", Section 4.3 of the Development
         Agreement, of the San Elijo Road Improvements ("City/Agency
         Contribution"), less Owner's Contribution, defined below, in a timely
         manner so as not to impede or delay development of the Project.

         11.2 Owner's Contribution. Owner will contribute an amount not to
         exceed eleven million dollars ($11,000,000) towards the costs of the
         San Elijo Road Improvements ("Owner's Contribution"), consisting of ten
         million dollars ($10,000,000) allocated to physical construction costs,
         and one million dollars ($1,000,000) allocated to Owner's Advance,
         defined in Section 11.3, below. Owner's Contribution will be funded
         through CFD No. 99-01 proceeds ("San Elijo Road CFD Funds") generated
         from those portions of the Project undeveloped as of the effective date
         of this Amendment, including Project Planning Areas C2 (Subareas a, b
         and c), F2, I1, I2, J, K1, K2, O, S, T, V1, and V2. To the extent
         Owner's Advance is less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) for any
         reason, Owner's Contribution allocated to physical construction funding
         may exceed ten million dollars ($10,000,000). In no event will Owner's
         Advance and CFD 99-01 proceeds allocated to physical construction
         funding collectively exceed eleven million dollars ($11,000,000).
         Regardless of the Actual Costs of the San Elijo Road Improvements and
         the amount of the City/Agency Contribution required to ensure
         completion of the San Elijo Road Improvements, the parties agree that
         Owner's Contribution will not exceed $11,000,000.

                                       4


         11.3 Owner's Advance. Subject to the right of reimbursement from
         proceeds of CFD No. 99-01, as part of Owner's Contribution Owner will
         advance up to one million dollars ($1,000,000) for the design,
         application processing, Resource Agency permitting, and other soft
         costs associated with the San Elijo Road Improvements, excluding
         construction costs and right of way acquisition ("Owner's Advance").

         11.4 Owner's Financial Assurances. In the event a financial consultant
         mutually acceptable to the parties determines, in his or her
         professional judgment, that CFD No. 99-01 will not generate Owner's
         Contribution, Owner will provide financial assurances to the City and
         Agency, acceptable to all parties in their reasonable discretion,
         demonstrating Owner's ability to fund the shortfall.

         11.5 City/Agency Financial Assurances. The City and Agency represent
         and warrant the availability of the City/Agency Contribution to ensure
         timely completion of the San Elijo Road Improvements.



         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been executed by the City of San
Marcos, acting by and through its City Manager pursuant to Ordinance No. 90-04
(2003MOD), and by the San Marcos Redevelopment Agency acting by and through its
Executive Director pursuant to Resolution No. RDA 2003-341, and by Owner.

         Dated this 11th day of February, 2004.
