Town Manager Comments: IAEngineering\Avon Village\I.0 General\Agreements\Water Lease Memo-I.Doc WATER LEASE This Water Lease ("Lease") is entered into this day of , 2002, between the Traer Creek Metropolitan District, a quasi municipal corporation and political subdivision of the State of Colorado ("Traer Creek District") and the Town of Avon, a Colorado municipal corporation ("Avon"). RECITALS Whereas, EMD Limited Liability Company, a Colorado limited liability company ("EMD LLC"), the Upper Eagle Regional Water Authority ("the Authority"), and the Eagle-Vail Metropolitan District (the "District") entered into a Water Service Agreement dated May 15, 1997 ("Service Agreement"). Paragraph 2(b) provided that EMD LLC agreed to lease a portion of the specified water rights in the attached Exhibit 2 ("the Subject Water Rights") to the Authority as a condition for water service to 1,789 acres of land owned by EMD LLC as described in the attached Exhibit 1 (the "Property"). EMD LLC thereafter transferred its interest in the Property to Traer Creek LLC. Whereas, EMD LLC, the District, Avon, and the Authority entered into the First Amendment to Water Service and Tap Fee Allocation Agreement dated June 22, 1999 (the "Amendment"). Section 2(B) of the Amendment substituted Avon for the District. Section 2(H) of the Amendment amended the lease provision in Paragraph 2(b) of the Service Agreement whereby EMD LLC agreed to lease without cost to Avon for sublease without cost to the Authority the portion of the Subject Water Rights sufficient to replace the consumptive use associated with the development of the Property as ultimately decreed by the Water Court. Whereas, in Case No. 97CW306 the Water Court determined the historical consumptive use of the Subject Water Rights to be 252.4 acre feet per year. The Water Court also determined that the expected total maximum annual amount of consumptive use associated with the development of the Property is 181 acre feet per year, based on a projected build-out of a certain size and certain water use and consumptive use assumptions contained in Paragraph 8 D through 8 G and Schedules A, B and C of the court's decree. The Water Court further determined that the annual replacement supply of water under the Augmentation Plan would be made up from 155.8 acre feet of available historical consumptive use credits attributable to the Subject Water Rights during the historical irrigation season (May-October) and from 24.8 acre-feet of water to be released from storage during the non- irrigation season (November-April). Whereas, certain of EMD LLC's rights, duties and obligations under the Service Agreement and Amendment were assigned to Traer Creek LLC, pursuant to that certain Assignment and Assumption of Water Service Agreement and Related Water Rights dated November 29, 2001. Whereas, certain of Traer Creek LLC's rights, duties and obligations under the Service Agreement and Amendment were assigned to Traer Creek District pursuant to that certain Assignment and Assumption of Water Service Agreement and Related Water Rights dated November 29, 2001. Whereas, certain water and water rights, ditch and ditch rights, consumptive use credits, and reservoirs and storage rights were transferred by Quit Claim deeds from EMD LLC to Traer Creek LLC, and from Traer Creek LLC to Traer Creek District. AGREEMENT Now, therefore, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 1. Lease. Traer Creek District hereby leases to Avon all of Traer Creek District's right, title and/or interests (beneficial or other interests) in and to the following (collectively, the "Leased Water Rights"): (a) the water rights described in Exhibit 2 identified under the column heading "Amount Leased", together with all associated rights and benefits of the plan for augmentation and exchange decreed by the District Court in and for Water Division No. 5 in Case No. 97CW306 (the "Augmentation Plan") including, without limitation, the 22 acre-feet of water storage rights in Nottingham Reservoir and the combined total of 27 acre-feet of conditional water storage rights for The Village (at Avon) Lakes Nos. 1 and 2 described in Paragraph 8 C thereof, together with all associated changes of water rights decreed therein; (b) the 155.8 acre feet of historical consumptive use credits identified in the Augmentation Plan and described in the attached Exhibit 3; (c) the 30 acre-feet of water attributed to 300 shares of Class A, Series 2 Eagle Park Reservoir Company stock as described in the Service Agreement (the "Eagle Park Shares"); (d) an additional 9.8 acre feet of storage water from Wolford Mountain Reservoir, Nottingham Reservoir, or another storage facility acceptable to Avon and the Authority ("the Additional Storage Water") to provide sufficient water rights to serve the Property. In addition, unless Nottingham Reservoir water is provided, the Augmentation Plan needs to be amended to include the Additional Storage Water. Traer Creek District agrees to secure, pay the cost of, and assign to Avon for subsequent lease to the Authority, the Additional Storage Water, within 3 months of the date of this Lease. Thereafter, the Authority shall use its best efforts to amend the Augmentation Plan, if necessary, to include the Additional Storage Water as an additional source of augmentation water. Traer Creek District shall promptly reimburse Avon and the Authority for all costs and fees (including legal, engineering, and court fees) incurred by the each of them in securing such an arrangement; and (e) all diversion ditches, pipelines, headgates and structures, pumps, casings and other improvements and easements associated or used in connection with the above described water C R2'R rights (including without limitation rights of access thereto) as become necessary from time to time to provide water service to the Property, reserving unto Traer Creek District equal rights of access and use of the same. The parties recognize, acknowledge and agree that in connection with the development of the Property such structures may need to be modified, piped, buried or otherwise improved at Traer Creek District's sole cost and discretion. It is mutually expected and intended by the parties that this Lease will fulfill Traer Creek District's obligation under Section 2H of the Amendment referred to herein above. 2. Term. The term of this Lease shall be perpetual, provided however, that in the event that the Authority or Avon defaults in providing water service to the Property (excepting temporary cessation of water service due to reasonable maintenance requirements or emergency conditions) pursuant to and in accordance with the Service Agreement and the Amendment, Traer Creek District may terminate this Lease upon sixty (60) days written notice to Avon and the Authority unless within such sixty day period Avon and/or the Authority cures such default. Upon termination of this Lease the right, title and interest of the Authority and Avon in the "Leased Water Rights" shall be released to Traer Creek District. 3. Payment. The Leased Water Rights shall be leased to Avon without charge. The consideration for this Lease is the water service provided pursuant to the Service Agreement and the Amendment. 4. Miscellaneous. (a) This Lease may not be amended except by a written document signed by the parties which expressly references this Lease. (b) This Lease shall be construed under and governed by the laws of the State of Colorado. (c) In the event of any litigation regarding the parties' rights and obligations under this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its costs and expenses of litigation, including its reasonable expert witness and attorneys' fees, and any costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in any appeal or collection actions related thereto.

Whereas, EMD LLC, the District, Avon, and the Authority entered into the First Amendment to Water Service and Tap Fee Allocation Agreement dated June 22, 1999 (the "Amendment"). Section 2(B) of the Amendment substituted Avon for the District. Section 2(H) of the Amendment amended the lease provision in Paragraph 2(b) of the Service Agreement whereby EMD LLC agreed to lease without cost to Avon for sublease without cost to the Authority the portion of the Subject Water Rights sufficient to replace the consumptive use associated with the development of the Property as ultimately decreed by the Water Court. Whereas, in Case No. 97CW306 the Water Court determined the historical consumptive use of the Subject Water Rights to be 252.4 acre feet per year. The Water Court also determined that the expected total maximum annual amount of consumptive use associated with the development of the Property is 181 acre feet per year, based on a projected build-out of a certain size and certain water use and consumptive use assumptions contained in Paragraph 8 D through 8 G and Schedules A, B and C of the court's decree. The Water Court further determined that the annual replacement supply of water under the Augmentation Plan would be made up from 155. 8 acre feet of available historical consumptive use credits attributable to the Subject Water Rights during the historical irrigation season (May-October) and from 24.8 acre-feet of water to be released from storage during the non-irrigation season (November-April). Whereas, certain of EMD LLC's rights, duties and obligations under the Service Agreement and Amendment were assigned to Traer Creek LLC, pursuant to that certain Assignment and Assumption of Water Service Agreement and Related Water Rights dated November 29, 2001. Whereas, certain of Traer Creek LLC's rights, duties and obligations under the Service Agreement and Amendment were assigned to Traer Creek District pursuant to that certain Assignment and Assumption of Water Service Agreement and Related Water Rights dated November 29, 2001. Whereas, certain water and water rights, ditch and ditch rights, consumptive use credits, and reservoirs and storage rights were transferred by Quit Claim deeds from EMD LLC to Traer Creek LLC, and from Traer Creek LLC to Traer Creek District. Whereas Traer Creek District has leased the Subleased Water Rights described below to Avon in a Water Lease entered into on the same date as this Water Sublease. AGREEMENT Now, therefore, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency ofwhich are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 1. Sublease. Avon hereby subleases to the Authority. all of its right, title and/or interests (beneficial or other interests) in and to the following (collectively, the "Subleased Water Rights"): (a) the water rights described in Exhibit 2 identified under the column heading "Amount Leased", together with all associated rights and benefits of the plan for augmentation and exchange decreed by the District Court in and for Water Division No. 5 in Case No. 97CW306 (the "Augmentation Plan") including, without limitation, the 22 acre-feet of water storage rights in Nottingham Reservoir and the combined total of 27 acre-feet of conditional water storage rights for The Village (at Avon) Lakes Nos. 1 and 2 described in Paragraph 8 C thereof, together with all associated changes of water rights decreed therein; (b) the 155.8 acre feet of historic consumptive use credits identified in the Augmentation Plan and described in the attached Exhibit 3; (c) the 30 acre feet of water attributed to 300 shares of Class A, Series 2 Eagle Park Reservoir Company stock as described in the Service Agreement (the 'Eagle Park Shares"); (d) an additional 9.8 acre feet of storage water from Wolford Mountain Reservoir, Nottingham Reservoir, or another storage facility acceptable to Avon and the Authority ("the Additional Storage Water) to provide sufficient water rights to serve the Property. In addition, unless Nottingham Reservoir water is provided, the Augmentation Plan needs to be amended to include the Additional Storage Water. Traer Creek District has agreed to secure, pay the cost of, and assign to Avon for subsequent lease to the Authority, the Additional Storage Water within 3 months of the date of its Lease with Avon. Thereafter, the Authority shall use its best efforts to amend the Augmentation Plan, if necessary, to include the Additional Storage Water as an additional source of augmentation water. Traer Creek District has agreed to promptly reimburse Avon and Authority for all costs and fees (including legal, engineering, and court fees) incurred by the each of them in securing such an arrangement; and C R2'R (e) all diversion ditches, pipelines, headgates and structures, pumps, casings and other improvements and easements associated or used in connection with the above described water rights (including without limitation rights of access thereto) as become necessary from time to time to provide water service to the Property, subj ect to Traer Creek District's and Avon's equal rights of access and use of the same. The parties recognize, acknowledge and agree that in connection with the development of the Property such structures may need to be modified, piped, buried or otherwise improved at Traer Creek District's sole cost and discretion. It is mutually expected and intended by the parties that this Sublease will fulfill Traer Creek District's obligation under Section 2H of the Amendment referred to herein above. 2. Term. The term of this Sublease shall be perpetual, provided however, that in the event that the Authority defaults in providing water service to the Property (excepting temporary cessation of water service due to reasonable maintenance requirements or emergency conditions) pursuant to and in accordance with the Service Agreement and the Amendment, Avon may terminate this Sublease upon sixty (60) days written notice to the Authority unless within such sixty day period the Authority cures such default. Upon termination of this Sublease the Authority's right, title and interest in the "Subleased Water Rights" shall be released to Avon. 3. Payment. The Subleased Water Rights shall be subleased to the Authority without charge. The consideration for this Sublease is the water service provided pursuant to the Service Agreement and the Amendment. 4. Miscellaneous. (a) This Sublease may not be amended except by a written document signed by the parties which expressly references this Sublease. (b) This Sublease shall be construed under and governed by the laws of the State of Colorado. (c) In the event of any litigation regarding the parties' rights and obligations under this Sublease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its costs and expenses of litigation, including its reasonable expert witness and attorneys' fees, and any costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in any appeal or collection actions related thereto.
