All sums so paid or expended by Landlord, with interest thereon at the rate of 12 percent per year from the date of such payment or expenditure shall be payable by Tenant immediately upon demand of Landlord. No payment or expenditure under the provisions of this Section shall be deemed to be a waiver of the underlying default nor shall it affect any other remedy of Landlord. 22. NO IMPLIED SURRENDER OR WAIVER. The receipt of rent by Landlord, with knowledge of any default, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any provision of this Lease. No failure of Landlord to enforce the provisions of this Lease upon any default by Tenant shall be construed as creating a custom of deferring payment or as modifying in any way the.terms of this Lease or as a waiver of Landlord's right to terminate this Lease as herein provided, or otherwise to enforce the provisions hereof for any subsequent default. The receipt by Landlord of rent from any assignee, under- tenant or occupant of the Premises shall not be deemed a waiver of the covenants contained herein against assignment and subletting or an acceptance of the assignee, under- tenant or occupant as Tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further observance or performance by Tenant of the covenants contained herein on the part of Tenant to be observed and performed. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by either party unless such waiver be in writing and signed.

No employee of Landlord or of Landlord's agents shall have any power to accept the keys to the Premises prior to the termination of this Lease. The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord, or of Landlord's agents, shall not operate as a termination of this Lease or a surrender of the Premises. No payment by Tenant, or receipt by Landlord, of a lesser amount than the monthly base Pent herein stipulated, shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check, or payment as rent, be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy available to Landlord. Time is of the essence hereof. 23. FORCE MAJEURE. In any case where either party is required to perform any con- struction work hereunder, delays caused by war, strike, riot, acts of God, shortages of material or labor, governmental regulation, weather delay, or other cause beyond such p,irty's reasonable control shall not be counted in determining the time during which such work shall be completed. In any case where work shall be paid for out of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, due allowance shall be made, both to the party required to perform such work and to the party required to make such payment, for delays in the collection of such proceeds and awards. 24.

Box D Avon, Colorado 81620 Dear Al: As you are aware, we have discussed the merits of Town of Avon using the Benchmark barn for the storage of vehicles that need to be towed with the provision that the Town assist Benchmark in moving the contents of the barn to the warehouse in the Industrial Park. We have concluded, however, that the contents of the barn are too great to be easily moved to and stored in the warehouse. Consequently, the owners of the warehouse, Doyle and Associates, of which Benchmark at Beaver Creek is a general partner, propose to rent to the Town of Avon Warehouse Number 2 as shown on the attached Exhibit A on the follow- ing terms and conditions: TERM: Month to month RATE: $5.00 per day or any part thereof per vehicle stored plus utilities. In other words, if the Town is not storing any vehicles on a particular day or days, their only cost would be for utilities. INSURANCE: The Town of Avon shall at its own cost and expense insure the property it stores in the warehouse and shall hold Doyle and Associates harmless for any damages that might occur to said contents. It is my understanding that The Town of Avon will collect at least $5.00 per day from the owner of a stored vehicle before the vehicle is released. Doyle and Associates, however, will look only to the Town for payment of rent. If this proposal is acceptable to you, please sign the attached copy of this BENCIIMARk Box S, Avon, Colorado 81620 Phone (303) 949 -5743 Page Two Mr. Angelo V.

(d) In the event of Tenant's default hereunder, Landlord shall have the right at Landlord's option, at any time thereafter and while such default shall continue, to: (i) terminate this lease and all of Tenant's rights hereunder by giving written notice of election to terminate to Tenant, which notice shall specify the date of such termina- tion; (ii) without resuming possession of the Premises or terminating this Lease, to sue for and recover all rents and other sums, including damages, at any time and from time to time accruing hereunder; (iii) without terminating this Lease, but subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth in this Section 21(d), to enter and take-possession of the Premises using such force as is necessary to dispossess Tenant thereof, to make alterations to the Premises in such manner and to such extent as to Landlord may seem desirable or advisable, and to relet or sublet the Premises or any part thereof for the whole or any part of the remainder of the Lease Term in Landlord's name, or as agent of Tenant, and to collect the rentals arising thereform, and out of any rents so -collected or received Landlord shall (1) first pay to itself the expense and cost of repossessing the Premises, (2) pay to itself any cost or expense sustained in securing any new tenant or tenants, (3) pay to itself any amount remaining on account of the liability of Tenant to Landlord for rent or other amounts due under this Lease, and (4) pay to Tenant any balance remaining not applied as set forth above. if the rents so collected by Landlord after the payments aforesaid are not enough to pay to Landlord a sum equal to the total of amounts already due under this Lease at such time, the same shall immediately be due from Tenant, and to the extent any installment of such rent is not enough to pay to Landlord a sum equal to the total amount due under the Lease on a current basis, the balance of the deficiency shall be paid by Tenant on the dates hereinabove set forth for payment of rent.

All sums so paid or expended by Landlord, with interest thereon at the rate of 12 percent per year from the date of such payment or expenditure shall be payable by Tenant immediately upon demand of Landlord. No payment or expenditure under the provisions of this Section shall be deemed to be a waiver of the underlying default nor shall it affect any other remedy of Landlord. _ 22. NO IMPLIED SURRENDER OR WAIVER. The receipt of rent by Landlord, with knowledge of any default, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any provision of this Lease. No failure of Landlord to enforce the provisions of this Lease upon any default by Tenant shall be construed as creating a custom of deferring payment or as modifying in any way the terms of this Lease or as a waiver of Landlord's right to terminate this Lease as herein provided, or otherwise to enforce the provisions hereof for any subsequent default. The receipt by Landlord of rent from any assignee, under - tenant or occupant of the Premises shall not be deemed a waiver of the covenants contained herein against assignment and subletting or an acceptance of the assignee, under- tenant or occupant as Tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further observance or performance by Tenant of the covenants contained herein on the part of Tenant to be observed and performed. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by either party unless such waiver be in writing and signed.

No employee of Landlord or of Landlord's agents shall have any power to accept the keys to the Premises prior to the termination of this Lease. The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord, or of Landlord's agents, shall not operate as a termination of this Lease or a surrender of the Premises. No payment by Tenant, or receipt by Landlord, of a lesser amount than the monthly base rent herein stipulated, shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check, or payment as rent, be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy available to Landlord. Time is of the essence hereof. 23. FORCE MAJEURE. In any case where either party is required to perform any con- struction work hereunder, delays caused by war, strike, riot, acts of God, shortages of material or labor, governmental regulation, weather delay, or other cause beyond such party's reasonable control shall not be counted in determining the time during which such work shall be completed. In any case where work shall be paid for out of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, due allowance shall be made, both to the party required to perform such work and to the party required to make such payment, for delays in the collection of such proceeds and awards. 24.
