However, if any such failure is not willful or intentional, does not place any rights or interest in collateral of Lender in immediate jeopardy, and is within the reasonable power of Borrower to promptly cure after receipt of notice thereof, all as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion, then such failure shall not constitute an Event of Default (unless otherwise expressly provided) if during such 30-day period, Borrower begins to cure the failure and then diligently pursues the cure to completion, except that in no event will the cure period under this subsection exceed 90 days from the date Borrower receives the notice from Lender.
(c) Bankruptcy Events. The occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event.
(d) Any other Event of Default under and as defined in the other Loan Documents.
6.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may declare all or any part of the Obligations to be due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind. Borrower waives notice of intent to accelerate the Obligations and notice of acceleration. In addition to declaring the Obligations due and payable, Lender may exercise, at its option, concurrently, successively or in any combination, all rights and remedies now or in the future available under any of the Loan Documents or at law or in equity. Neither the acceptance of this Agreement nor its enforcement shall prejudice or in any manner affect Lender's rights to realize upon or enforce its rights with respect to any security now or in the future held by Lender, and Lender is entitled to enforce this Agreement and its rights and remedies with respect to any such security in such order and manner as it may in its absolute discretion determine.
6.3 Lender's Right to Cure. Lender may, at its option and without any obligation to do so, pay, perform, and discharge any and all amounts, costs, expenses and liabilities that are Borrower's responsibility under any of the Loan Documents if Borrower fails to timely pay, perform or discharge the same after 30 days prior written notice to Borrower of Lender's intent to take any such action, and all amounts reasonably expended by Lender in so doing shall become part of the Obligations, secured by the lien of the Deeds of Trust, and shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower to Lender on demand.
6.4 Default Interest. Any amounts not paid to Lender when due (including amounts due by reason of acceleration) shall bear interest from the due date until paid, at a rate per annum equal to the "Default Rate," as defined in the Note.
ARTICLE 7
Assignments by Lender

Upon a Lender Transfer of Lender's entire right and interest under the Loan Documents, Lender shall automatically be relieved, from and after the date of such assignment, of liability for the performance of any obligation of Lender contained in the Loan Documents.

8789351.2 14
(a) Use of Certain Words. References to the plural include the singular and to the singular include the plural and references to any gender include any other gender. The part includes the whole; the terms "include" and "including" are not limiting; and the term "or" has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase "and/or." The words "hereof," "herein," "hereby," "hereunder," and similar terms in a Loan Document refer to the Loan Document as a whole and not to any particular provision of the Loan Document.
(b) References. References in any of the Loan Documents to "Articles," "Sections," "Paragraphs," "Exhibits," or "Schedules" are to the Articles, Sections, and Paragraphs in and the Exhibits and Schedules to such Loan Document.

(d) Partial Invalidity. If any portion of this Agreement or any other Loan Document is determined to be unenforceable or invalid, such portion shall be stricken from and construed for all purposes not to constitute a part of this Agreement or such other Loan Document, and the remaining portion of this Agreement or such other Loan Document shall remain in full force and effect and shall, for all purposes, constitute the entire Agreement or Loan Document, as the case may be.
(e) Time of Essence; Time Periods. Time is of the essence of each provision in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in which time is an element. If the time for the performance of any obligation or taking any action under this Agreement or such other Loan Document expires on a day other than a Business Day, the time for performance or taking such action shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day.

8789351.2 15
8.7 Transaction Characterization. The Loan Documents are a contract to extend a financial accommodation (as such term is used in the Bankruptcy Code) for the benefit of Borrower. The Loan Documents evidence one unitary, unseverable transaction pertaining to the Collateral. The business relationship created by the Loan Documents is solely that of creditor and debtor and has been entered into by the parties in reliance upon the economic and legal bargains contained in the Loan Documents. None of Loan Document provisions is intended, nor shall be deemed or construed, to create a partnership or joint venture between Borrower and Lender, to make Borrower an agent of Lender, or to make Lender in any way responsible for the debts, obligations or losses of Borrower.

Borrower consents and agrees that the state or federal courts located in the City and County of Denver, Colorado, shall have exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine any claims or disputes pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, any transaction relating hereto, any other financing related thereto, and any investigation, litigation, or proceeding in connection with, related to or arising out of any such matters, provided, that Borrower acknowledges that any appeals from those courts may have to be heard by a court located outside of such jurisdiction; and provided further that nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict the right of Lender to commence any proceeding in the federal or state courts located in the state in which the Premises are located to the extent Lender deems such proceeding necessary or advisable to exercise remedies available under the Deeds of Trust or the other Loan Documents.
8.11 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO, THIS AGREEMENT, THE FINANCING CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE.

Signature and acknowledgement pages may be detached from individual counterparts and attached to a single or multiple original(s) in order to form a single or multiple original(s) of a document.

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with any other certificates, instruments or agreements to be delivered in connection therewith, constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no other representations, warranties or agreements, written or oral, between Borrower and Lender with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
