The undersigned Owner and Applicant hereby proffer that the use and development of the

the following conditions, which shall supersede all other proffers on the Property that may have
been made prior hereto. In the event that the above-referenced M1 conditional rezoning is not

with “final rezoning” defined as that rezoning which is in effect on the day following the last day
upon which the Frederick County Board of Supervisors’ (the “Board”) decision granting the

Owner and Applicant elect not to submit development plans until such contest is resolved, the term
final rezoning shall include the day following entry of a final court order affirming the decision of
the Board which has not been appealed, or, if appealed, the day following which the decision has
been affirmed on appeal.
The headings of the proffers set forth below have been prepared for convenience or
reference only and shall not control or affect the meaning or be taken as an interpretation of any
provision of the proffers. The improvements proffered herein shall be provided at the time of
development of that portion of the Property adjacent to or including the improvement or other
proffered requirement, unless otherwise specified herein. The terms “Owner” and “Applicant” as
referenced herein shall include within its meaning all future owners and successors in interest.
When used in these proffers, the “Generalized Development Plan,” shall refer to the plan entitled
