Regarding subparagraph 1), Lessor and its individual members represent they have no other obligations owed to the Bank except those evidenced by the Security Documents. The Lessor and its individual members further agree they will not request or obtain any further advances from the Bank pursuant to the Security Documents. Lessor also acknowledges it has conveyed to Lessee an assignment of Lessor’s rights to cure any of its defaults under the Security Documents, said assignment to be exercised at Lessee’s sole discretion. In the event Lessee undertakes any cure, all costs associated with said cure, including but not limited to any money paid to the beneficiary of the Security Documents, may be set off against any rental payment due Lessor under this Agreement.
Regarding the resolution of the requirements set forth in subparagraph 2), Lessor agrees to promptly undertake and make substantial progress toward completion within one year, the resolution of these requirements. Lessee at its sole option may either assist Lessor in these undertakings, or take the lead role in their prosecution. If the parties are unable to complete any necessary undertakings within a reasonable period, Lessee at its sole option may cancel this Agreement. In any event, until such time as the requirements have been satisfied, Lessor agrees to indemnify Lessee for any costs Lessee may reasonably incure in any attempt to satisfy these requirements. Any losses Lessor incurs as a result of non-satisfaction of these requirements, may be set off against any rental payment owed Lessee.
Regarding the reservations set forth in subparagraph 3), The Lessee agrees to except these reservations from the overall requirements to deliver marketable unencumbered title.
Regarding the encroachment and easement described in subparagraph 4), the Lessee agrees to except this encroachment and easement from the overall requirements to deliver marketable unencumbered title if Lessee, with Lessor’s good faith cooperation, within Sixty (60) days from the date hereof, is successful in obtaining from the City of Black Hawk a waiver or variance from any set back requirements along the Eastern edge of the portion of The Property described in subparagraph 4) a) or other considerations, plus a relinquishment of the City’s easement rights concerning portions of The Property. If, despite its best efforts, Lessee is not able to obtain the set back waiver/variance, or other acceptable considerations, then a prorate reduction in the rental rate will occur based upon the proration of The Property needed for any set back requirements to The Property as a whole. Moreover, if despite its best efforts, Lessee is not able to obtain relinquishment of the City’s easement, the Lessee, at its sole option may either cancel this Agreement or reduce future rental payments based upon the ratio of the area encumbered bears to the entire area of The Property.
Regarding the undefined easement and right-of-way and encroachments described in subparagraph 5), the Lessee, with Lessor’s good faith cooperation, agrees to seek a satisfactory definition and limitation thereof. If, despite Lessee’s best efforts, the Lessee
7
is unsuccessful in obtaining the necessary definition and-limitation within Sixty (60) days of the date hereof, the Lessee, at its sole option may either cancel this Agreement or accept Lessor’s indemnification for any losses suffered by Lessee as the result of not obtaining the subject definition and restriction.
Regarding the differences in the description of the common boundary of The Property with Main Street described in subparagraph 6), the Lessee, with Lessor’s good faith cooperation, will resolve such differences by obtaining from the City of Black Hawk any necessary correction deed. If, despite Lessee’s best efforts, the Lessee is unsuccessful in obtaining the necessary correction deed within Sixty (60) days of the date hereof, the parties will jointly determine if the lack thereof affects Lessee’s use of The Property under this Agreement. If the parties determine there is an adverse affect suffered by the Lessee, any such adverse affect will be compensated by an appropriate reduction in future rental payments.
Regarding any circumstances described in subparagraph 7), the Lessor, at its sole cost, shall resolve the same to Lessee’s good faith satisfaction within sixty (60) days of the date hereof. If the encumbrances are not resolved within said sixty (60) days Lessee may, at its discretion, cancel this Agreement, prorate future rental payments based upon the ratio of The Property so encumbered to The Property described in Exhibit A, or accept Lessor’s indemnification for any costs reasonably incurred by Lessee as a result of not resolving the encumbrance.
After conclusion of all undertakings necessary to remove the encumbrances described in subparagraphs 2), 4), 5), 6) and 7), Lessor agrees to thereafter maintain marketable unencumbered title sufficient to allow Lessee’s use as herein described, including those possible activities discussed in paragraph A-8 above, throughout the term of this Agreement and any extension thereof. Lessor further agrees to provide Lessee prior to execution of this Agreement an up-to-date title commitment, in the amount of One Million, Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000.00), showing marketable title to The Property in the Xxxxxxxxxxx Limited Liability Company except for the encumbrances listed in subparagraph 1), 2), 3), 4), 5), 6) and 7). As part of the closing associated with the execution of this Agreement Lessor will furnish all requirements specified in said title commitment. Lessor agrees that during the term of this Agreement or any renewal, it may not use The Property for any collateral or security purposes if said use would in any way interfere, encumber, or proport to be superior to Lessee’s use and enjoyment of the leasehold which is the subject of this Agreement.
The parties recognize the portion of Xxx 0, Xxxxx 00 which is West of the Eastern Twenty (20) feet described as part of The Property is the subject of a quiet title action pending in Xxxxxx County, District Court, which action was initiated by the Lessor. If Lessor, within One (1) year of the date hereof can deliver Lessee marketable unencumbered title to said westerly portion of Xxx 0, Xxxxxx xx its sole option may agree to add said land to this Agreement. If the said land is added to this Agreement, the
8
base rental rate set forth in paragraph A-3 herein above will be increased in proportion to the ratio of the size of said westerly portion of Lot 1 bear to The Property as described in Exhibit A.
B-6. CORPS or EPA Permits. Lessor represents and warrants that other than possible request for a drainage easement upon Lot 12 no U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and/or U.S. Environmental Protection Agency permits or permissions are required before The Property may be used as contemplated by this Agreement. However, if other permits or permission are necessary in the future for use of The Property as contemplated by this Agreement, which necessity is not the result of Lessee’s actions, it will be the Lessor’s responsibility to obtain the same. All rental payments to Lessor will be abated during the time it takes for the Lessor to obtain any such necessary permits or permission. Lessor will retain any causes of action it may have against any third party resulting from such situation.
B-7. Grading and Finishing. The parties recognize that the portion of The Property which was the subject of the Lower Lot Lease is graded and surfaced for use as a parking lot.

The parties further recognize that the City of Black Hawk or other regulatory agency may require a retaining wall to be built behind the remaining portion of The Property. The construction of any retaining wall or walls will be done by the Lessee at the Lessee’s sole cost. Any such finished wall or walls must be approved by any and all regulatory agencies, including the City of Black Hawk and deemed acceptable by the Lessee’s insurance company, in the exercise of their good faith discretion.
B-8. Relocation of Historical House. The parties recognize that an old house exists on The Property. This house will be moved to a new site and relocated to other property by the Lessor at its sole cost. Any restoration of the old house itself, if any is done, will be paid by the Lessor. Notwithstanding any movement of the house, the house shall remain the property of Lessor who shall be responsible therefore.

B-9. Hazardous Substances. The Lessor represents it has obtained soil reports showing the absence of contamination upon The Property. Nevertheless, the
9
parties recognize The Property is located in an area that was the site of mining activities and that other parcels of property in the area have been the subject of EPA Superfund actions or otherwise may be the location of hazardous substances. If any hazardous substances, as such term is defined in § 101(14) of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. § 96-01(14), are found at any time at The Property, Lessor will be given four (4) months to correct the situation, then if the situation is not corrected, Lessee, at its option, may terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, and vacate the affected land. If Lessee is unable to use The Property, all rental payments will be abated during any cure period of up to four (4) months. Upon any termination, any improvements made upon the land will remain but the Lessee will be without any further responsibility for any payment of rent or other performance under this Agreement for the pro rata portion of The Property so affected.

The minimum coverage shall be: 1) from the Lessee itself - garagekeepers $250,000.00 and general liability $1,000,000.00 on The Property and any improvements; and, 2) from Lessee’s valet service - garage liability $1,000,000.00.

B-13. Damage to Property. In the event The Property becomes untenable due to damage by flood, earthquake, landslide or acts of God, which acts are not caused by the Lessee, and the Lessor is unable to affect a repair thereof within Three (3) months of the date of any such occurrence, this Agreement may be thereupon terminated, in whole or in part, by the Lessee and the Lessee will have no further responsibility for payment or rent or other performance under this Agreement or affected portion thereof. All rental payments to the Lessor for the affected portion of The Property will be abated during the time it takes Lessor to repair.
B-14. Eminent Domain. In the event The Property, or any part thereof, is acquired by the exercise of the power of eminent domain, or pursuant to an agreement
