(2) A loan agreement described in paragraph (1) shall be transmitted to the county auditor not later than December 1 of the fiscal year in which the loan is made. Any amount remitted by the agency to the county Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund for the 2004–05 or 2005–06 fiscal year in excess of the amount determined pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) shall be credited to the amount that would otherwise be subtracted by the county auditor pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 97.71 of the Revenue and Taxation Code for, as applicable, the 2004–05 and 2005–06 fiscal years.
(3) Notwithstanding subparagraph (C) of paragraph (1), a county redevelopment agency and a legislative body that have entered into a loan agreement for the 2004–05 or 2005–06 fiscal year under paragraph (1) may, by mutual consent, adopt either or both of the following modifications to that agreement:
(A) The repayment period may be extended, but the full repayment shall be completed no later than June 30, 2021.
(B) The repayment obligation may be offset by the amount of any expenditures by the county for capital improvements or deferred maintenance that substantially benefit any or all of the redevelopment project areas of the redevelopment agency if the agency approves the expenditure and the agency adopts a finding that the expenditure furthers the goals and objectives of the agency’s redevelopment plan or plans.
