W I T N E S S E T H: The Association is the governing homeowners association for “The Residences at Briar Patch Association,” a subdivision situated in Vail, Colorado (the “Briar Patch Subdivision”), and as such owns the common area designated as “Parcel F” within the Briar Patch Subdivision. Parcel F and the Briar Patch Subdivision are depicted on the plat known as the “Fourth Amendment to Residences of Briar Patch,” plat a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Existing Plat”). The Briar Patch Subdivision is governed by the “The Restated Declaration of Protective Covenants for The Residences at Briar Patch” dated September 16, 1994, and recorded October 6, 1994, at Book 651, Page 821, under Reception No. 547859 in Eagle County, Colorado (the "Existing Declaration"). The Town has determined that a portion of Parcel F in the Briar Patch Subdivision contains potential rockfall hazards that require mitigation to preserve and protect the community below. The potential rockfall hazard area consists of approximately 3.291 acres and is depicted as “Parcel G” on the proposed replat of the Briar Patch Subdivision, referenced as the “Fifth Amendment to the Residences at Briar Patch,” plat attached hereto as Exhibit B. The area depicted as “Parcel H” on Exhibit B consists of approximately .32 acres and provides access to Parcel G from Buffehr Creek Road above. The Association desires to convey Parcel G and Parcel H to the Town, consisting collectively of approximately 3.611 acres (collectively, the “Town Parcel”), so to enable the Town to manage the potential rockfall hazard area into the future and the Town desires to acquire the Town Parcel for such purpose, on the terms set forth herein. A G R E E M E N T NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein set forth, and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Association and the Town agree as follows: Sale and Purchase. The Purchase Price for the Town Parcel shall be Two Hundred Eighty Thousand Dollars and 00/100 (US) ($280,000.00) (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price shall be allocated to Parcel G, with Parcel H being donated to the Town by the Association and its Owners at no additional cost. Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be payable by the Town to the Association in good funds at Closing. Due Diligence Period. The Town has previously undertaken studies to determine the risk posed by the rockfall hazard area and the need to manage mitigation through engineering studies. Thus, the Town has concluded its interest in and the suitability of the Town Parcel and the Town desires to proceed to closing on the term of this Agreement. Contingencies to the Conveyance. The Association’s and the Town’s obligations at Closing are conditioned upon the following: Title Matters. The Association shall convey title to the Town Parcel to the Town by “general warranty deed” delivered at Closing, with the Town’s title in the property being subject only to the Schedule B-2 exceptions shown in the “Title Commitment,” attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Permitted Exceptions”). The Title Commitment is an extended coverage form of commitment for an owner’s policy of title insurance in the amount of the Purchase Price, committing the “Title Company” to insure the Town as fee simple owner of the Town Parcel, with the standard exceptions be deleted at Closing. Replat. The Association, through the “Owners” (as defined in the Existing Declaration), apart from the conveyance of the Town Parcel to the Town, has elected to amend the Existing Plat to provide for, among other matters, the creation of legal single-family lots for the single-family parcel owners in the Briar Patch Subdivision by the Fifth Amendment to the Residence at Briar Patch, plat attached as Exhibit B (the “Amended Plat”). The Association’s obligation to close on the conveyance to the Town is contingent upon final approval and recording of the Amended Plat, a draft of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B, pursuant to which the Town Parcel will be created as a separate legal parcel for conveyance to the Town. The Association and the Town agree to cooperate in submitting a joint application for review of the Amended Plat, it being the understanding and agreement between the Town and the Association that the Amended Plat must be submitted for review and approval and that no approval of the Amended Plat is assured by the Town. It is intended by the parties that the Amended Plat will create a separate legal parcel (or parcels) for the land to be conveyed to the Town as the Town Parcel and that the Amended Plat will create legal lots (as opposed to the existing building envelopes parcels) for the five single-family residences in the Briar Patch Subdivision. No Rezoning of the Subdivision. The Association and the Town agree that there will be no change in zoning to the Briar Patch Subdivision that will remain after the Town Parcel is created. The Town Parcel shall be conveyed free and clear of the covenants and restrictions pertaining to the Briar Patch Subdivision under the Existing Declaration and the Amended Declaration, when recorded, but will remain subject to the covenants contained in this Agreement, which shall be recited in the deed delivered at Closing. Buffehr Creek Road Right-of Way. At the request of the Association The Town has reviewed a request to vacate the right-of-way along Buffehr Creek Road but as a matter of current policy will not do so at this time. However, the Town will review with the Association the potential to limit the existing revocable easement benefitting Parcel A to specify those instances in which the driveway easement may be revoked, and in all events to provide for alternative reasonable access to Parcel A from Buffehr Creek Road. Town Parcel Covenants. The Town Parcel will be rezoned to a “Natural Area Preservation” classification. No public or recreation access will be allowed, given the potentially hazardous nature of the area, and no improvements of any nature will be allowed to be constructed in the future with the exception of horizontal or in ground, such that the only activity to occur on the land installations for mitigation of the rockfall hazard. No vertical improvements will be installed at any time, including with respect to the rockfall hazard mitigation to preserve the natural state of the Town Parcel, provided that the Town shall not be precluded from installing vertical improvements below the lower ridge line (the location of which shall be marked on the Amended Plat) if the stability of the hillside should become compromised by a significant natural event and other available forms of mitigating the risk associated with falling rocks (such as mesh application and nailing of rocks) cannot be reasonably implemented. Sharing of Expenses. Given the shared benefit of the Amended Plat to the Association and the Town, by creating the Town Parcel for the conveyance to the Town and the single-family lots for the Briar Patch Subdivision single-family parcel owners, the Association and the Town agree to share equally in the expenses associated with the Amended Plat and the conveyance (including without limitation, surveying, legal and title), provided that in no event shall the Town’s portion of such expenses exceed $10,000.00, collectively. Amendment to Declaration. The Association is in the process of amending the Existing Declaration by recording the “Second Amended and Restated Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Easements for The Residences at Briar Patch” (the “Amended Declaration”), which shall occur as a condition of Closing. The Amended Declaration shall confirm the approval and authority granted by the members of the Association for the Association to convey the Town Parcel (or a substantially similar area of Parcel F as may be finally identified on the Amended Plat) to the Town, and that such conveyance shall be free from the covenants, rights and obligations under the Existing Declaration and Amended Declaration, when recorded. Amended Plat Application. Upon execution of this Agreement by the Town and the Association, the Town will proceed with assisting in the preparation of the application for the Amended Replat. Closing. Closing shall occur within ten (10) days of final approval and recording of the Amended Plat. If Closing has not occurred by July 15, 2011, either party may at any time thereafter by written notice of not less than ten (10) business days to the other party, terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Town and the Association shall have no further obligation to each other, provided that each party shall be obligated to proceed to Closing, subject to satisfaction of the contingencies set forth in Section 4 above. At Closing, the following actions shall occur, all being considered as taking place simultaneously: The Association will execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Town a good and sufficient general warranty deed conveying the Town Parcel to the Town, free and clear of all encumbrances, other than the Permitted Exceptions. Land Title Guarantee Company (the “Title Company”) shall conduct the Closing and shall be prepared to issue the owner’s title policy insuring the Town’s title in the Town Parcel as provided in the Title Commitment, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions (the “Owner’s Title Policy”). The Town shall deliver the Purchase Price in good funds to the Title Company for disbursement to the Association, which may be by wire transfer, pursuant to instructions provided by the Association. Each party shall execute and deliver to the other any and all other documents required to consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Prorations and Costs of Closing.
