Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement by the parties, Purchaser shall make a deposit in an aggregate amount of $320,000 (the “Deposit”), which shall be held in escrow by Bank of The West, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain deposit escrow agreement between Purchaser and Seller entered into as of the date hereof (the “Deposit Escrow Agreement”). Any fees or expenses of the Escrow Agent shall be borne equally by Seller and Purchaser. If a Closing occurs within 180 days following the date hereof, the Deposit shall be applied against the Cash Payment payable by Purchaser. If a Closing does not occur within 180 days following the date hereof (or for an additional 90 days if such period is extended by Seller in writing) or this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article 8 hereof, the Deposit, plus any accrued interest thereon, shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Article 8.

2.3 Purchase Price Adjustment.

2.3.1 Adjustment to Purchase Price. For purposes of this Section 2.3:

(a) the term “Net Working Capital” means (A) the aggregate amount of the “Assets” on Exhibit E attached hereto (including cash in the ATM’s of Seller), as determined in accordance with the methodology agreed to by the parties and set forth on Exhibit E attached hereto, less (B) the aggregate amount of the “Liabilities” on Exhibit E attached hereto (including the Long-Term Notes), as determined in accordance with the methodology agreed to by the parties and set forth on Exhibit E attached hereto.

(b) the term “Target Working Capital” means $0 .

2.3.2 Estimated Working Capital. On the Closing Date, Seller shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Purchaser a statement (the “Estimated Working Capital Statement”) setting forth the Net Working Capital estimated as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Working Capital”). The Estimated Working Capital Statement shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the methodology agreed to by the parties and set forth on Exhibit E attached hereto.

2.3.3 Post-Closing Working Capital Calculation. Within 60 days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, at its cost, and deliver to Seller a statement (the “Actual Working Capital Statement”) which shall set forth an itemized calculation of the Current Assets, the Current Liabilities and the actual Net Working Capital (the “Actual Working Capital”) as of the Closing Date. The Actual Working Capital Statement shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the methodology agreed to by the parties and set forth on Exhibit E attached hereto. Seller shall have 30 days after the expiration of Purchaser’s 60-day period to review the Actual Working Capital Statement and shall have reasonable access to the work papers of Purchaser and its accountants used in preparing the Actual Working Capital Statement. If Seller objects to the Actual Working Capital Statement it shall inform Purchaser in writing (an “Objection”), setting forth a specific and detailed description of the basis of the Objection and an Actual Working Capital Statement reflecting the adjustments to the amount of the Actual Working Capital which it believes should be made, which Objection must be delivered to Purchaser on or before the last day of such thirty 30 day period. Purchaser and Seller shall then have 30 days to attempt in good faith to reach an agreement with respect to any disputed matters in respect of the Actual Working Capital. In reviewing any Objection, Purchaser and its agents and representatives shall have reasonable access to the work papers of Seller and its accountants. If Purchaser and Seller are unable to resolve all of their disagreements with respect to the determination of the foregoing items within said thirty 30 day period, each shall submit its respective prepared Actual Working Capital Statement to an independent accounting firm to be selected jointly in writing by Purchaser and Seller or, if Purchaser and Seller cannot agree, to the independent accounting firm of BDK, LLC located at 111 S. Tejon Street, Suite 800, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80903-2286 (the “Audit Firm”). The Audit Firm shall, acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, determine in accordance with this Agreement, and only with respect to the remaining differences so submitted, whether and to what extent, if any, the Actual Working Capital Statement requires adjustment. Purchaser and Seller shall direct the Audit Firm to use all reasonable efforts to render its determination within 30 days after such submission. The Audit Firm’s determination regarding any such adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. Purchaser and Seller shall make readily available to the Audit Firm all relevant books and records and any work papers (including those of their respective accountants) relating to the Actual Working Capital Statement and all other items reasonably requested by the Audit Firm. The fees and expenses of the Audit Firm shall be borne equally by the parties. The “Final Working Capital Statement” shall be deemed to be (i) the Actual Working Capital Statement if no Objection is delivered by Seller during the 30 day period specified above, or (ii) if an Objection is delivered by the Seller, the Actual Working Capital Statement, as adjusted by either (A) the agreement of the parties or (B) the Audit Firm.

2.3.4 Adjustment to Purchase Price. If the Final Working Capital as reflected on the Estimated Working Capital Statement is (i) greater than the Target Working Capital, the Purchase Price paid by Purchaser at Closing shall be increased by the amount of such excess and such excess shall be paid to Seller by Purchaser, or (ii) less than the Target Working Capital, the Purchase Price paid by Purchaser at Closing shall be reduced by the amount of such deficiency and such deficiency shall be paid to Purchaser by Seller (the “Purchase Price Adjustment Amount”). The Purchase Price Adjustment Amount, without interest, shall be paid by Purchaser under clause (i) above, or Seller under clause (ii) above, to the other party in cash or by wire transfer in immediately available funds, within 3 Business Days after the final determination of the Final Working Capital Statement. Purchaser and Seller agree that any payment made pursuant to this Section 2.3.4 shall be treated as a decrease or increase, as the case may be, of the Adjusted Initial Purchase Price.

2.4 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets in accordance with Schedule 2.4 attached hereto. Each of the parties hereto shall treat the sale of the Purchased Assets under this Agreement in a manner consistent with such allocations for all purposes, including, without limitation, determining any Taxes and filing its respective Form 8594, and shall not take any inconsistent position on a Tax Return, before a Governmental Entity or in any judicial or other proceeding. In the event the allocation is disputed by any Governmental Entity, the party receiving notice of such dispute shall promptly notify and consult with the other parties concerning the resolution of such dispute, and shall keep the other parties apprised of the status of such dispute and the resolution thereof.

2.5 Prorated Payments. The following payments relating to the Purchased Assets will be pro rated as of the Closing Date, with Seller liable to the extent such payments relate to operations of the Business for the period up to and including the Closing Date and Purchaser liable to the extent such payments relate to operation of the Business for the period subsequent to the Closing Date.

2.5.1 Rents, additional rents, and other items payable by Seller under any lease to be assigned to or assumed by Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement including, without limitation, the Lease, or payments on any lease on any equipment or machinery transferred to Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

2.5.4 If any item described in this Section 2.5 cannot be prorated, adjusted or determined as of the Closing Date, then it shall be separately prorated, adjusted, determined and paid by the responsible party as soon as practicable following the Closing Date.

2.6 Physical Inventory Count.

(a) upon written notice of termination to Purchaser, if the Closing has not occurred within one hundred and eighty (180) days from the date of this Agreement as a result of the failure of the appropriate government agencies within the State of Colorado to issue to Purchaser gaming or liquor licenses required to operate the Business despite the fact that Purchaser used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain same; provided, however, Seller shall have the right to extend the period for an additional ninety (90) days; or

(b) upon written notice of termination to Purchaser, if the Closing has not occurred within one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of this Agreement as a result of the failure of Purchaser to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain gaming and liquor licenses required to operate the Business from the appropriate government agencies within the State of Colorado or if at any time following the date of this Agreement Purchaser or any of its members are determined by such government agencies not to be qualified to obtain such gaming or liquor licenses and within thirty (30) Business Days following its receipt of written notice of such determination Purchaser has not taken necessary and appropriate actions to qualify its members for such gaming and liquor licenses; or

(c) upon written notice of termination to Purchaser in the event Purchaser is in material breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that in the case of a breach of a covenant which breach is capable of being cured, Purchaser shall have fourteen (14) days of receipt of written notice thereof to cure such breach; or

(c) upon written notice of termination to Seller, together with supporting documentation which sets forth in reasonable detail that, as a result of the adoption of legislation or regulations by the taxing authorities in the State of Colorado related to the gaming industry (“Gaming Legislation”), the closing of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and the operations of the Business of Seller by Purchaser if a closing occurred would result in an increase of gaming taxes associated with the operations of the Business in an amount greater than $50,000 for the 2012 tax year and each of the succeeding tax years; provided, however, prior to the effectiveness of such termination, Seller and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith for a period of thirty (30) Business Days following Seller’s receipt of written notice of termination to attempt to amend this Agreement and/or restructure the transactions contemplated hereby in a manner satisfactory to both parties.

Any termination of this Agreement shall not release any party from any liability which such party may have for any breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant made by such party or for any expense; provided, however that the maximum amount of liability of Purchaser or Seller resulting from such termination of this Agreement shall not exceed the amount of the Indemnity Cap provided for in Section 7.5 hereof.

(a) Seller shall cause to be prepared and duly and timely filed when due all Tax Returns with respect to the Purchased Assets for all periods on or prior to the Closing Date for sales, bulk sales, use, real or personal property or other transfer, excise, recording fees and charges and similar Taxes (including, without limitation, any such Tax Returns required to be filed as a result of, or in connection with, the sale, assignment, conveyance and transfer of the Purchased Assets to Purchaser or the transactions contemplated hereby).

Such employees who accept such employment (the “Affected Employees”) will be employed by Purchaser with the same per annum salaries or hourly rates of pay under which such Affected Employees were employed by Seller immediately prior to Closing. Employees of Seller who become employees of Purchaser shall be subject to all rules, regulations, requirements and policies applicable to all new hires of Purchaser (except as otherwise provided in this Section 10.5), and any such employees who may be subsequently terminated will be entitled to severance benefits in accordance with the policy of Purchaser as then applicable.

[EXHIBIT B]

GUARANTEE

THIS GUARANTEE (this “Guarantee”) is made this [__] day of [__________], 2012, by DAVID J. MINTER, an individual residing at 3030 Orion Drive, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80906 (the “Guarantor”), in favor of COLORADO GRANDE ENTERPRISES, INC., a Colorado corporation (“Lender”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, concurrently herewith, Lender is selling to G INVESTMENTS, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“Buyer”), and Buyer is purchasing from Lender, the assets of Lender in accordance with an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of November 23, 2011 (the “Purchase Agreement”) between Lender and Buyer.

WHEREAS, as partial consideration for the purchase and sale of assets, Buyer is financing its purchase by issuing a promissory note (such note, together with all modifications thereto and replacements therefore, the “Note”) of even date herewith in favor of Lender in the principal amount of Two Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,400,000.00).

WHEREAS, to induce Lender to enter into the Purchase Agreement, the Guarantor has agreed to execute and deliver this Guarantee.

WHEREAS, as the Guarantor is a principal of Buyer, he will derive direct and immediate financial and other benefit from the entry by Lender and Buyer into the Purchase Agreement and the consummation of the transactions thereunder.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Guarantor agrees as follows:

1. Guarantee of Obligations; Enforcement Costs. The Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the prompt and complete payment and performance when due of all obligations of Buyer to Lender arising under the Note, including any and all principal and interest amounts due and payable thereon (collectively, the “Obligations”). The Guarantor shall also pay to Lender all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Lender in the enforcement, protection, defense or collection of the Obligations and this Guarantee.

2. Waiver and Consent. The Guarantor unconditionally and absolutely waives: (a) diligence, presentment, protest and all notices and demands of every kind whatsoever, including, without limitation, demand for payment, notice of nonpayment, notice of the acceptance of this Guarantee by Lender and of the creation and existence of any of the Obligations, and notice of any default by Buyer in its obligations to Lender under the Note; (b) the invalidity or unenforceability of the Obligations; (c) any failure, neglect or omission on the part of Lender to realize or protect the Obligations; and (d) any and all acts or things by Lender to be done to establish the liability of the Guarantor hereunder. The Guarantor consents to all terms and conditions regarding the Obligations and any indulgence, extension, forbearance, forgiveness or other modification of the amounts or terms granted or made with respect to the Obligations.

3. Continuing Guarantee. No act or thing, except payment and performance of the Obligations in full, shall in any way affect or impair this Guarantee, and this Guarantee shall be a continuing, absolute, and unconditional Guarantee and shall be in force and be binding upon the Guarantor until the Obligations are fully paid and performed.

4. Payment and Performance. In the event any of the Obligations or any portion thereof are not paid or performed by Buyer when due, the Guarantor shall pay to Lender all amounts owing by Buyer and perform the other obligations of Buyer under the Note in like manner as if the Obligations constituted the direct obligations of the Guarantor. It is further agreed that Lender, prior to exercising its rights hereunder, shall not be required to pursue or exhaust any of its rights or remedies against Buyer or other persons or its or their property, this being a Guarantee of payment and not of collection.

5. Subrogation. No payment by the Guarantor pursuant to this Guarantee shall entitle the Guarantor, by subrogation or otherwise, to the rights of Lender, to any payment by, or to receive any property of, Buyer until all of the Obligations and all costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees paid or incurred by Lender in endeavoring to collect the Obligations and enforcing this Guarantee have been fully paid.

6. Payments Set Aside. If any payment made to Lender in reduction of the Obligations is thereafter set aside, recovered, rescinded or required to be returned for any reason (including, without limitation, the bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization of Buyer or the Guarantor or any other obligor of the Obligations), the Obligations to which such payment was applied shall, for the purposes of this Guarantee, be deemed to have continued in existence regardless of such payment, and this Guarantee shall be enforceable as to the Obligations as fully as if such payment had never been made, notwithstanding the cancellation of any other agreement evidencing the Obligations.

7. Severability. Any invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or application of this Guarantee shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Guarantee, which shall remain in full force and effect.

8. Successors and Assigns; Assignment. This Guarantee shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors, administrators and permitted assigns. The Guarantor may not assign this Guarantee or any of their obligations hereunder.

9. Governing Law. This Guarantee shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to its conflict of laws principles.

10. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications hereunder must be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given only if delivered personally, sent by facsimile or electronic transmission via email (so long as, concurrently with facsimile or email transmission, a hard copy of such notice is sent by any other means permitted hereunder) or mailed (first class postage prepaid or by a national overnight delivery service) to the parties at the following addresses or facsimile numbers:

[EXHIBIT D]

PLEDGE AGREEMENT

THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT (this “Pledge Agreement”) is dated as of the [__] day of [_________], 2012, by [___________], an [individual/entity] having an address at [_____________] ("Pledgor"), in favor of COLORADO GRANDE ENTERPRISES, INC., a Colorado corporation having an address at 300 East Bennett Avenue, Cripple Creek, Colorado 80813 ("Pledgee").

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, in connection with the purchase and sale of the assets of Pledgee to G Investments, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (the “Company”), Pledgee and the Company entered into that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of November 23, 2011;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, in partial consideration for the purchase and sale of Pledgee’s assets to the Company, the Company issued that certain Promissory Note (the “Promissory Note”), dated as of the date hereof, made by the Company in favor of Pledgee in the original principal amount of Two Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,400,000.00); and

WHEREAS, as a condition to the closing under the Purchase Agreement, Pledgor agreed to secure payment of the Obligations (as defined in Section 2 hereof) to Pledgee.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the foregoing premises, the mutual covenants and conditions herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Pledgor covenants to and agrees with Pledgee as follows:

1. Pledge. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(b) below, as collateral security for payment and performance in full of all the Obligations (as defined below), Pledgor hereby pledges, hypothecates, assigns, transfers, sets over and delivers unto Pledgee and hereby grants to Pledgee a first priority lien upon, and a continuing security interest in all of Pledgor’s membership interest in the Company (the “Membership Interest”), together with all proceeds thereof and all cash, additional securities or other property at any time and from time to time receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such Membership Interest (such Membership Interest, proceeds thereof, cash, additional securities and other property are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Collateral"). Simultaneously with the execution of this Pledge Agreement, Pledgor shall deliver to Pledgee, a certificate representing the Membership Interest (or, if uncertificated, an Assignment of Membership Interest), together with instruments of transfer duly endorsed by Pledgor in blank. The Collateral shall be accompanied by such other instruments or documents as Pledgee or its counsel reasonably may request or as may be required by the terms and conditions of the Company’s Operating Agreement.

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Collateral, together with all rights, title, interests, powers, privileges and preferences pertaining or incidental thereto, unto Pledgee, its successors and assigns, forever, subject, however, to the terms, covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth.

2. Obligations Secured. The pledge under this Pledge Agreement is made, and the security interest created hereby is granted to Pledgee, to secure prompt payment and performance when due of (i) all liabilities and obligations of the Company to Pledgee under the Promissory Note, and any and all modifications, amendments, extensions, increases, renewals, replacements and substitutions thereof or therefor, and (ii) all liabilities and obligations of Pledgor now or hereafter existing under this Pledge Agreement (all such liabilities and obligations of Pledgor collectively referred to herein as the "Obligations").

3. Representations and Warranties. Pledgor hereby represents and warrants to Pledgee as follows:

(a) Pledgor is the record legal and equitable owner of, and has the complete and unconditional authority to pledge, the Collateral and holds the same free and clear of all liens, charges, encumbrances and security interests of every kind and nature; Pledgor has good and marketable title to the Collateral and has the right and legal capacity to pledge the Collateral in the manner provided or contemplated and will defend its title thereto against the claims of all persons.

(b) The execution, delivery and performance by Pledgor of this Pledge Agreement will not violate the terms of any instrument, document or agreement to which Pledgor is a party, or by which Pledgor or any of its property is bound, or be in conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with giving of notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any such instrument, document or agreement, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any of the property or assets of Pledgor, except for the lien in favor of Pledgee created hereunder.

(c) Pledgor is duly authorized and empowered to execute, deliver and perform his obligations under this Pledge Agreement.

(d) This Pledge Agreement constitutes the valid and legally binding obligations of Pledgor, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

4. Distributions; Voting Rights.

(a) Any and all membership interests or liquidating dividends, other distributions in property, return of capital or other distributions made on or in respect of the Collateral as a result of a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding membership interests of the Company, or received in exchange for Collateral or any part thereof or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which the Company may be a party or otherwise, shall be and become part of the Collateral pledged hereunder and, if so received by Pledgor, shall forthwith be delivered to Pledgee to be held subject to the terms of this Pledge Agreement.

(b) Unless an Event of Default (as defined herein) shall have occurred, Pledgor shall be entitled to receive cash distributions paid in respect of the Membership Interest, to vote the Membership Interest and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Membership Interest; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken which is inconsistent with, or which would breach or violate, any provision of this Pledge Agreement. After an Event of Default has occurred, Pledgee shall be entitled to receive all cash or other distributions, to vote the Membership Interest, and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Membership Interest, and Pledgor shall have no rights with respect thereto.

5. Covenants With Respect to Collateral; Events of Default. Pledgor covenants and agrees as follows:

(a) In accordance with the terms of Sections 4(a) and 4(b) hereof, Pledgor covenants that he will cause any additional securities or property (except cash) issued to or received by him with respect to any of the Collateral, whether for value paid by it or otherwise, to be forthwith deposited and pledged hereunder, in each case accompanied by proper instruments of assignment duly executed in blank by Pledgor.

(b) Pledgor shall not sell, convey or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral or any interest therein, or create, incur or permit to exist any lien, encumbrance or security interest in or with respect to any of the Collateral.

(c) Pledgee may hold any of the Collateral, endorsed or assigned in blank or in the name of any nominee or nominees of Pledgee, and Pledgee may deliver any of the Collateral to the issuer thereof for the purpose of making denominational exchanges or registrations or transfers or for such other purpose in furtherance of this Pledge Agreement as Pledgee may deem desirable.

(d) Pledgor will pay all taxes, assessments and other charges levied, assessed or imposed upon the Collateral when the same become due.

(e) An "Event of Default" shall exist hereunder (i) if any of the Collateral shall be attached or levied upon or seized in any legal proceedings, or held by virtue of any lien; but only if such attachment, levy, seizure or lien has not been satisfied, released, discharged or bonded within sixty (60) days after Pledgor has knowledge of its existence; (ii) if Pledgor shall have failed or refused to perform any covenant or agreement set forth herein and such failure or refusal shall not be cured within five (5) business days following receipt by Pledgor of written notice thereof from Pledgee; (iii) if any written representation or warranty made by Pledgor under or in connection with this Pledge Agreement shall have been false or misleading in any material respect when made; or (iv) any Event of Default (after any applicable notice and cure period) shall occur under the Promissory Note, which Pledgor fails to cure such Event of Default within five (5) business days of Pledgor’s receipt of written notice of such Event of Default from Pledgee.

6. Remedies Upon Event of Default.

(a) Subject to any applicable notice and cure provisions, if an Event of Default shall have occurred, Pledgee may exercise all of his rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral set forth under this Section 6 and Pledgor and the Company hereby agree to execute any documents reasonably requested by Pledgee to evidence any transfer of legal title to the Collateral resulting from the exercise of such rights and remedies. Pledgee may sell the Collateral, or any part thereof, at public or private sale for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as Pledgee shall deem appropriate. Pledgee shall be authorized at any such sale (if, on the advice of counsel, it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and upon consummation of any such sale Pledgee shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Except as provided below, each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of Pledgor, and Pledgor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which Pledgor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.

(b) Pledgee shall give Pledgor ten (10) business days' written notice of Pledgee's intention to make any such public or private sale or sale of the Collateral. Such notice, in case of public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as Pledgee may fix and shall state in the notice of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as Pledgee may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. Pledgee shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of Collateral may have been given. Pledgee may, without notice or publication, except upon written notice to Pledgor, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, upon no less than 10 business days prior written notice to Pledgor of such adjournment, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned, as specified in such written notice to Pledgor. In case sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for further delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by Pledgee until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but Pledgee shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, Pledgee may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose this pledge and to sell the Collateral, or any portion thereof, pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction; provided, that Pledgee must provide written notice to Pledgor of Pledgee’s intention to proceed in such manner at least ten (10) business days prior to initiating any such suit at law or in equity.

(c) In addition to the rights and remedies provided herein and otherwise available under any applicable law, and except as provided below, whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred, Pledgee shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code as then in effect in the State of Colorado.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Pledge Agreement including this Section 6, Pledgee’s rights and remedies and the rights of any purchaser are and shall be subject to any applicable provisions of the Company's Operating Agreement.

7. Application of Proceeds of Sale and Cash. The proceeds of sale of Collateral sold pursuant to Section 6 hereof shall be applied by Pledgee as follows: first, to the payment in full of the Obligations, in such order as Pledgee may elect, to the extent not previously paid by Pledgor; and, second, to Pledgor any remainder of such proceeds.

8. Exercise of Powers. Pledgee shall have and be entitled to exercise all such powers hereunder as are specifically delegated to Pledgee by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Pledgee may execute any of its duties hereunder by or through agents or employees and shall be entitled to retain counsel and to act in reliance upon the advice of such counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its duties hereunder.

9. Pledgee Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Pledgor hereby appoints Pledgee as its attorney-in-fact for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Pledge Agreement, and taking any reasonable action and executing any instrument which Pledgee either may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Pledgor hereby authorizes Pledgee to file a UCC Financing Statement against Pledgor in the State of Colorado to record the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral.

10. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of Pledgee to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy by Pledgee preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

11. Securities Law, Etc. Pledgor recognizes that Pledgee may be unable or shall determine that it is undesirable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in Federal and state securities laws, but may be compelled or determine that it is desirable to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale subject to such conditions and made in accordance with applicable law shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner; provided Pledgor shall have been given notice of the occurrence of such private sale in accordance with Section 6 of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 11 would apply if, for example, Pledgee were to place all or any part of the Collateral for private placement by an investment banking or similar firm, or if such firm purchased all or any part of the Collateral for its own account, or if Pledgee placed all or any part of the Collateral privately with a purchaser or purchasers. Pledgor further agrees to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be reasonably requested by Pledgee and necessary to make such private sale or sales of any portion or all of the Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all applicable laws, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales, all at Pledgor's expense.

12. Termination. This Pledge Agreement will terminate when all the Obligations to Pledgee under the Promissory Note and this Pledge Agreement have been fully paid and performed. Upon termination of this Pledge Agreement, Pledgee, shall reassign and deliver to Pledgor, or to such person or persons as Pledgor shall designate, against receipt, such of the Collateral (if any) pledged by Pledgor as shall not have been sold or previously released, together with appropriate instruments of reassignment and release in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Pledgor, and Pledgor may file any and all necessary or appropriate UCC termination statements.

13. Survival of Agreements. All agreements, representations and warranties made herein, and in any certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Pledge Agreement.

14. Amendment. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Pledge Agreement, nor consent to any departure by Pledgor shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the party granting such modification, amendment or waiver, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

15. Successors and Assigns. This Pledge Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Pledgee and its successors and assigns.

16. Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Pledge Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

17. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Waiver. This Pledge Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, but without giving effect to any Colorado choice of law provisions that might otherwise make the laws of a different jurisdiction govern or apply. IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT, THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS OF TELLER COUNTY OF THE STATE OF COLORADO AND WAIVE ALL DEFENSES TO THE JURISDICTION OF EITHER OF THE FOREGOING COURTS INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, FORUM NON-CONVENIENS. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT, OR OTHERWISE), ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE, CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING OR WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INFORMED THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 17 CONSTITUTE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT UPON WHICH THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE RELIED, ARE RELYING, AND WILL RELY IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 17 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF SUCH OTHER PARTY TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY.

18. Notices. All notices, requests, demands, claims or other communications required or permitted to be delivered, given or otherwise provided hereunder must be in writing and must be delivered personally, delivered by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid or (if a facsimile number is provided below) sent by facsimile (subject to electronic confirmation of good facsimile transmission) addressed to the party as specified below:

(b) Any and all such payments so received by the Lender (whether from the Company or otherwise) shall be applied by the Lender against the Obligations in such order as the Lender shall determine in its sole discretion. Any balance of such payments held by the Lender and remaining after payment in full of all such Obligations shall be paid over to the Company.

The Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the Company which shall be released. The Company further agrees, at the Lender’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Lender at places which the Lender shall reasonably select, whether at the Company’s premises or elsewhere. The Lender shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care, safekeeping or otherwise of any or all of the Collateral or in any way relating to the rights of the Lender hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, to the Lender for payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, the Company remaining liable for any deficiency remaining unpaid after such application, and only after paying over such net proceeds and after the payment by the Lender of any other amount required by any provision of law, need the Lender account for the surplus, if any, to the Company. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral. The Company agrees that the Lender need not give more than 10 business days’ written notice to the Company (which notification shall be deemed given, when received by the Company at its address set forth on the first page hereof or at such other address as the Company shall have notified Lender, in writing) of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of such matters. The Company shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Lender is entitled, the Company also being liable for the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by the Lender to collect such deficiency.

6.3 The Company also agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Lender with respect to the collection of any of the Obligations and the enforcement of any of the Lender’s rights hereunder.

6.4 The Company hereby waives (i) presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Agreement or any Collateral, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, (ii) all rights to seek from any court any bond or security prior to the exercise by the Lender of any remedy described herein, (iii) the benefit of all valuation, appraisement and exemption laws, and (iv) all rights to demand or to have any marshalling of assets upon any power of sale granted herein or pursuant to judicial proceedings or upon any foreclosure or any enforcement of this Agreement.

6.5 Without limiting the generality of any of the rights and remedies conferred upon the Lender in this Agreement, the Lender may, after the occurrence of an Event of Default and to the full extent permitted by applicable law: (i) take immediate possession of the Collateral, either personally or by means of a receiver appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction; (ii) at the Lender’s option, use, operate, manage and control the Collateral in any lawful manner; (iii) collect and receive all rents, income, revenue, earnings, issues and profits therefrom; and (iv) maintain, repair, renovate, alter or remove the Collateral as the Lender may determine in its sole discretion.

VII.	TERMINATION.

This Agreement will terminate when all of the amounts due to the Lender under the Promissory Note has been fully paid.

VIII.

MISCELLANEOUS.

8.1 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
