WHEREAS, the Town is the owner of certain real property generally described as the eastern half of the Timber Ridge property and more particularly described in Exhibit 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property"); WHEREAS, the Parties desire to redevelop the Property for employee housing; WHEREAS, the Town, as landlord, and Master Lessee as tenant, have entered into a Ground Lease for the Property dated (the "Ground Lease "); and NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and covenants hereinafter set for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows: 1. Defined Terms. For purposes of this Deed Restriction, the following terms shall have the following meanings: "Principal place of residence" means the dwelling in which one's habitation is fixed and to which a person, whenever he or she is absent, has a present intention of returning after an absence therefrom. In determining what is a principal place of residence, the Town and Master Lessee may consider, without limitation: location of business pursuits; employment and income sources; residence for tax purposes; residence of parents, spouse and children, if any; location of personal property; motor vehicle registration; and voter registration. "Qualified Household" means one Qualified Resident or a group of persons that contains at least one Qualified Resident (who must sign the Unit lease as a tenant). A Qualified Household may have occupants that are not Qualified Residents (and who may also sign the Unit lease as tenants) as long as at least one occupant who has signed the lease is a Qualified Resident. "Qualified Resident" means a natural person who works an average of 30 hours or more per week at a business in Eagle County, Colorado that holds a valid and current business license, or pays sales taxes, or is otherwise generally recognized as a legitimate business. For example, if a person worked 60 hours per week for one half of the year at 11 2/13/20/4 Q.• I USERS( VAIL (TIMBER RIDGE- NEWIAGRIGROUND LEASE- 3.DOCX such a business in Eagle County, Colorado, and worked elsewhere for the other half of the year, such person would constitute a Qualified Resident. "Rental Guidelines" means the guidelines attached as Exhibit 2 hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. "Restricted Unit" means a Unit that is rented to a Qualified Household pursuant to the terms of this Deed Restriction. "Unit" means each of the residential dwelling units constructed on the Property. 2. Binding Effect. This Deed Restriction shall constitute a covenant running with the Property as a burden thereon, for the benefit of, and enforceable by the Town and the Master Lessee. This Deed Restriction shall bind the Master Lessee and all occupants of the Restricted Units. Each and every occupant of a Restricted Unit shall be personally obligated hereunder for the full and complete performance and observance of all covenants, conditions and restrictions contained herein that are applicable to such occupant during such occupant's respective period of occupancy of a Restricted Unit. Each and every conveyance of the Property or a portion thereof, or interest therein, for all purposes, shall be deemed to include and incorporate by this reference, the covenants contained in this Deed Restriction, even without reference to this Deed Restriction in any document of conveyance. Occupancy. a. The Master Lessee covenants that at least 70% of the total Units in the Property shall be Restricted Units. The Parties acknowledge that the Restricted Units are not fixed and may float so long as at least 70% of the total Units are Restricted Units. For example, assume that the Property contains 100 Units. If 75 of the Units are rented to Qualified Households, and one of such Units becomes vacant, such Unit may thereafter be rented to occupants who are not a Qualified Household, because at least 70 of the Units remain occupied by Qualified Households. b. The Property may contain two additional common areas that shall not qualify as Units, one area to be used by property management personnel, maintenance personnel or security personnel, and one area to be used as a leasing or marketing office. Because such common areas are not considered Units under this Deed Restriction, they shall not be included in the calculation of Restricted Units; provided however, that if such common areas are ever converted into Units, they shall be included in the calculation of Restricted Units. C. A Qualified Resident must occupy the Restricted Unit as his or her principal place of residence. If other occupants of the Restricted Unit are not Qualified Residents, the Restricted Unit need not be their principal place of residence. d. At any time that the number of Restricted Units falls below 70% of the total Units, Master Lessee shall promptly take commercially reasonable efforts in accordance with applicable law and the Rental Guidelines to lease the next Units coming 12 2/13/2014 Q: IUSERSWAILITIMBER RIDGE- NEWIAGMGROUND LEASE- 3.DOCX available for rent to Qualified Households in accordance with this Deed Restriction and the Rental Guidelines, until at least 70% of the total Units are Restricted Units. 4. Unit Lease. No Unit shall be leased or occupied without a Unit lease. Each Unit shall have only one Unit lease at any one time. Each Restricted Unit lease shall include a clear reference to this Deed Restriction and a brief summary of this Deed Restriction, including the remedies upon a violation or breach of the terms of this Deed Restriction, and shall incorporate the terms and conditions of this Deed Restriction. 5. Right To Terminate Lease. Nothing herein shall prevent the Master Lessee from terminating the lease of a Qualified Household, or taking any other legal action against the Qualified Household based upon any tenant's breach of the terms of the lease; provided that if a tenant misrepresents his or her status as a Qualified Resident, Master Lessee shall terminate the Unit lease in addition to any other available remedies. 6. Inspection. In a non - emergency situation, if the Town or Master Lessee has reasonable cause to believe that an occupant of a Restricted Unit is violating any provision of this Deed Restriction, the Town or Master Lessee may inspect the Restricted Unit between the hours of 8:00 am and 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday, after providing the occupant with no less than 24 hours written notice, which notice to tenant may be given by posting on the front door of the applicable Restricted Unit. Nothing herein shall preclude the Town or Master Lessee from accessing a Restricted Unit in an emergency situation where there is an imminent threat to person(s) or property. 7. Annual Verification. No later than February I't of each year, beginning in the year following the first year of occupancy of the Property, Master Lessee shall submit a written statement to the Town including the following information and stating that such information is true and correct to the best of Master Lessee's knowledge and belief: a. Evidence to establish that 70% of the Units were Restricted Units (i.e., occupied by Qualified Households) during the prior calendar year; b. A list of tenants who occupied the Restricted Units in the prior calendar year and the evidence submitted by such tenants to establish that they were Qualified Residents and /or Qualified Households; C. A copy of the lease form currently used for the Restricted Units; and d. Copies (which may be electronic) of all application information submitted by Qualified Residents actually occupying Restricted Units; provided that such copies will only be provided for one Qualified Resident per Restricted Unit, even if more than one Qualified Resident occupies such Restricted Unit. 8. Violations. a. If Master Lessee discovers a violation of this Deed Restriction by an occupant, or if the Town notifies Master Lessee in writing that there is a violation of this Deed Restriction by an occupant, Master Lessee shall send a notice of violation to the 13 2/13/2014 Q: I USERSWAILITIMBER RIDGE- NEWUGRIGROUND LEASE- 3.DOCX occupant detailing the nature of the violation and allowing the occupant 10 days from the date of the notice to cure said violation to the reasonable satisfaction of Master Lessee and the Town. Notice may be given by posting on the front door of the applicable Unit or by other lawful means. If the violation is not cured within such time, the violation shall be considered a violation of this Deed Restriction by the Unit occupant. b. If the Town discovers a violation of this Deed Restriction by Master Lessee, the Town shall send a notice of the violation to Master Lessee, detailing the nature of the violation and allowing Master Lessee 30 days from the date the notice is given to cure said violation to the reasonable satisfaction of the Town. If a forcible entry and detainer is necessary to resolve the violation, the forcible entry and detainer shall be commenced within such 30 -day period and diligently prosecuted to completion. If the violation if not cured within such time, the violation shall be considered a violation of this Deed Restriction by Master Lessee. 9. Remedies. a. The Town and Master Lessee shall have any and all remedies provided by law and in equity for a violation of this Deed Restriction, including without limitation: (i) damages, including but not limited to damages resulting from the leasing of a Restricted Unit in violation of this Deed Restriction; (ii) specific performance; and (iii) injunction, including but not limited to an injunction requiring eviction of the occupant(s) and an injunction to prohibit the occupancy of a Restricted Unit in violation of this Deed Restriction. All remedies shall be cumulative. b. In addition to any other available remedies, if Master Lessee is found to be in violation this Deed Restriction (after expiration of any cure period), Master Lessee shall be subject to a penalty of $100 per violation as determined by the Town in each instance. Each occurrence is hereby deemed to be a separate violation of this Deed Restriction, and the penalty may be imposed for each and every day during any portion of which a violation is found to have been committed, continued or permitted by Master Lessee. This penalty shall not apply if it is discovered that an occupant provided false information to Master Lessee, Master Lessee reasonably relied on such false information, and the false information caused the violation. C.

The purpose of these Rental Guidelines is to set forth the occupancy eligibility requirements for the employee housing rental units (the "Restricted Units ") located in Lion's Ridge Apartment Homes, pursuant to the Deed Restriction dated 2. Definitions. All capitalized terms herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Deed Restriction. 3. Administration. In accordance with the Deed Restriction, Master Lessee shall administer these Rental Guidelines, including but not limited to, making determinations regarding the eligibility of applicants to rent and occupy a Restricted Unit as a Qualified Resident as set forth herein. Prior to leasing or renewing a lease for a Restricted Unit, the occupant must sign an individual acknowledgement of acceptance of the terms of these Rental Guidelines and the Deed Restriction. 4. Qualified Households and Residents. Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Deed Restriction, to be eligible for consideration to rent a Restricted Unit, the occupants must first be certified as a Qualified Household. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Master Lessee shall not be obligated to rent any Unit to a tenant that does not meet Master Lessee's rental guidelines, which rental guidelines shall be subject to review and approval by the Town, in its reasonable discretion. 5. Application. To become a Qualified Resident, a person must first provide the following information on an application to be provided by Master Lessee, and applications and all accompanying documentation shall become the property of the Master Lessee and will not be returned to the applicant: a. Verification (e.g., wage stubs, employer name, address, telephone number and other appropriate documentation as requested by Master Lessee) of applicant's current employment with a business in Eagle County that holds a valid and current business license, or pays sales taxes, or is otherwise generally recognized as a legitimate business; b. Evidence that the applicant has worked, or will work, an average of 30 hours per week or more per year for one or more of such businesses and that such level of employment is expected to be maintained for as long as the applicant lives in the Restricted Unit; C. A valid form of identification, such as a driver's license, state - issued identification, passport or military identification. d. Any other documentation which the Master Lessee deems necessary to make a determination of eligibility; and e. A signed statement certifying and acknowledging: that all information submitted in such application is true to applicant's best knowledge; that the applicant 18 2/1312014 Q: I USERS(VAIL (TIMBER RIDGE- NEWL4GRIGROUND LEASE- 3.DOCX understands that he /she may not sublet the Restricted Unit; that the applicant authorizes Master Lessee to verify any and all past or present employment and residency information and all other information submitted by an applicant; and that applicant understands that, as set forth in the Deed Restriction, the Master Lessee reserves the right to review any applications and take any appropriate action regarding such application. 6. Lease Term. The Restricted Units shall be leased to Qualified Households, and may be renewed to Qualified Households, on a month -to -month basis or for periods no greater than 12 months in duration. 7. Interpretation. In evaluating a potential application to lease a Restricted Unit, the Master Lessee shall be guided by the following: a. An applicant's physical place of employment is controlling, not the mailing address of such place. b. Claims of employment by an applicant that are unable to be verified by Master Lessee will not be utilized in determining an applicant's eligibility. C. Seasonal work and part time work alone may not be adequate to meet the minimum 30 hours per week average annual requirement, but may augment other employment to meet the minimum eligibility requirements. 8. Leasing of Units to Non - Qualified Households. a. If at least 70% of the Units in the Property are Restricted Units, other Units may be freely leased by Master Lessee to occupants who are not Qualified Residents or Qualified Households. b. If there are no eligible Qualified Households available to rent a particular Unit, Master Lessee may rent such Unit to occupants other than a Qualified Household. However, at any time that the number of Restricted Units falls below 70% of the total Units, Master Lessee shall thereafter use commercially reasonable efforts to lease the next available Unit(s) to Qualified Households until the 70% threshold is again met. C. In no event may Master Lessee lease a Restricted Unit to a Qualified Resident who will not occupy the Restricted Unit as his or her principal place of residence, unless first expressly approved in writing by the Town after making findings that extraordinary circumstances and hardship exist to justify such arrangement. Such tenancy shall be on a month -to -month basis only. 9. Misrepresentation. Any misrepresentation by an applicant in any submittal shall disqualify such applicant from being eligible to lease a Restricted Unit, and shall be grounds for eviction if such misrepresentation is revealed after such applicant's occupancy. 10. Inspection of Documents. The Town may inspect any documents submitted with any application for Qualified Resident status pursuant to Section 5 hereof, at any time during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice. In addition, upon inspection, if the Town 19 2/13/2014 Q. I USERSI VAILITIMBER RIDGE- NEWIAGMGROUND LEASE- 3.DOCX reasonably determines that additional documents are necessary to verify Qualified Resident or Qualified Household status, the Town may request additional documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Master Lessee shall not be required to retain any documents submitted by applicants who do not sign leases with Master Lessee; provided, however, that if the number of Restricted Units falls below 70% of the total Units, then Master Lessee shall retain documents submitted by applicants to verify its commercially reasonable efforts to lease the next Unit becoming available for rent to a Qualified Household in accordance with the requirements of the Deed Restriction and the Rental Guidelines, until at least 70% of the total Units are once again Restricted Units. 20 2/13/2014 Q.

WHEREAS, the Town is the owner of certain real property generally described as the eastern half of the Timber Ridge property and more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property "); WHEREAS, the Parties desire to redevelop the Property for employee housing; WHEREAS, the Town, as landlord, and Master Lessee as tenant, have entered into a Ground Lease for the Property dated (the "Ground Lease "); and NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and covenants hereinafter set for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows: 1. Defined Terms. For purposes of this Deed Restriction, the following terms shall have the following meanings: "Principal place of residence" means the dwelling in which one's habitation is fixed and to which a person, whenever he or she is absent, has a present intention of returning after an absence therefrom. In determining what is a principal place of residence, the Town and Master Lessee may consider, without limitation: location of business pursuits; employment and income sources; residence for tax purposes; residence of parents, spouse and children, if any; location of personal property; motor vehicle registration; and voter registration. "Qualified Household" means one Qualified Resident or a group of persons that contains at least one Qualified Resident (who must sign the Unit lease as a tenant). A Qualified Household may have occupants that are not Qualified Residents (and who may also sign the Unit lease as tenants) as long as at least one occupant who has signed the lease is a Qualified Resident. "Qualified Resident" means a natural person who works an average of 30 hours or more per week at a business in Eagle County, Colorado that holds a valid and current business license, or pays sales taxes, or is otherwise generally recognized as a legitimate business. For example, if a person worked 60 hours per week for one half of the year at such a business in Eagle County, Colorado, and worked elsewhere for the other half of the year, such person would constitute a Qualified Resident. 2/13/2014 Q: I USERSI VA /LIT /MBER RIDGE- NEWIAGRIDEED RESTRICTION -6DOC "Rental Guidelines" means the guidelines attached as Exhibit B hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. "Restricted Unit" means a Unit that is rented to a Qualified Household pursuant to the terms of this Deed Restriction. "Unit" means each of the residential dwelling units constructed on the Property. 2. Binding_ Effect. This Deed Restriction shall constitute a covenant running with the Property as a burden thereon, for the benefit of, and enforceable by the Town and the Master Lessee. This Deed Restriction shall bind the Master Lessee and all occupants of the Restricted Units. Each and every occupant of a Restricted Unit shall be personally obligated hereunder for the full and complete performance and observance of all covenants, conditions and restrictions contained herein that are applicable to such occupant during such occupant's respective period of occupancy of a Restricted Unit. Each and every conveyance of the Property or a portion thereof, or interest therein, for all purposes, shall be deemed to include and incorporate by this reference, the covenants contained in this Deed Restriction, even without reference to this Deed Restriction in any document of conveyance. 3. Occupancy. a. The Master Lessee covenants that at least 70% of the total Units in the Property shall be Restricted Units. The Parties acknowledge that the Restricted Units are not fixed and may float so long as at least 70% of the total Units are Restricted Units. For example, assume that the Property contains 100 Units. If 75 of the Units are rented to Qualified Households, and one of such Units becomes vacant, such Unit may thereafter be rented to occupants who are not a Qualified Household, because at least 70 of the Units remain occupied by Qualified Households. b. The Property may contain two additional common areas that shall not qualify as Units, one area to be used by property management personnel, maintenance personnel or security personnel, and one area to be used as a leasing or marketing office. Because such common areas are not considered Units under this Deed Restriction, they shall not be included in the calculation of Restricted Units; provided however, that if such common areas are ever converted into Units, they shall be included in the calculation of Restricted Units. C. A Qualified Resident must occupy the Restricted Unit as his or her principal place of residence. If other occupants of the Restricted Unit are not Qualified Residents, the Restricted Unit need not be their principal place of residence. d. At any time that the number of Restricted Units falls below 70% of the total Units, Master Lessee shall promptly take commercially reasonable efforts in accordance with applicable law and the Rental Guidelines to lease the next Units coming available for rent to Qualified Households in accordance with this Deed Restriction and the Rental Guidelines, until at least 70% of the total Units are Restricted Units. 2 2/13/2014 Q: I USERSI VAIDTIMBER RIDGE- NEWIAGRIDEED RESTRICTION -6DOC 4. Unit Lease. No Unit shall be leased or occupied without a Unit lease. Each Unit shall have only one Unit lease at any one time. Each Restricted Unit lease shall include a clear reference to this Deed Restriction and a brief summary of this Deed Restriction, including the remedies upon a violation or breach of the terms of this Deed Restriction, and shall incorporate the terms and conditions of this Deed Restriction. 5. Right To Terminate Lease. Nothing herein shall prevent the Master Lessee from terminating the lease of a Qualified Household, or taking any other legal action against the Qualified Household based upon any tenant's breach of the terms of the lease; provided that if a tenant misrepresents his or her status as a Qualified Resident, Master Lessee shall terminate the Unit lease in addition to any other available remedies. 6. Inspection. In a non - emergency situation, if the Town or Master Lessee has reasonable cause to believe that an occupant of a Restricted Unit is violating any provision of this Deed Restriction, the Town or Master Lessee may inspect the Restricted Unit between the hours of 8:00 am and 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday, after providing the occupant with no less than 24 hours written notice, which notice to tenant may be given by posting on the front door of the applicable Restricted Unit. Nothing herein shall preclude the Town or Master Lessee from accessing a Restricted Unit in an emergency situation where there is an imminent threat to person(s) or property. 7. Annual Verification. No later than February I't of each year, beginning in the year following the first year of occupancy of the Property, Master Lessee shall submit a written statement to the Town including the following information and stating that such information is true and correct to the best of Master Lessee's knowledge and belief: a. Evidence to establish that 70% of the Units were Restricted Units (i.e., occupied by Qualified Households) during the prior calendar year; b. A list of tenants who occupied the Restricted Units in the prior calendar year and the evidence submitted by such tenants to establish that they were Qualified Residents and /or Qualified Households; C. A copy of the lease form currently used for the Restricted Units; and d. Copies (which may be electronic) of all application information submitted by Qualified Residents actually occupying Restricted Units; provided that such copies will only be provided for one Qualified Resident per Restricted Unit, even if more than one Qualified Resident occupies such Restricted Unit. Violations. a. If Master Lessee discovers a violation of this Deed Restriction by an occupant, or if the Town notifies Master Lessee in writing that there is a violation of this Deed Restriction by an occupant, Master Lessee shall send a notice of violation to the occupant detailing the nature of the violation and allowing the occupant 10 days from the date of the notice to cure said violation to the reasonable satisfaction of Master Lessee and the Town. Notice may be given by posting on the front door of the applicable Unit 2113/2014 Q: IUSERSIVAIDTIMBER RIDGE- NEWIAGRIDEED RESTRICTION -6.DOC or by other lawful means. If the violation is not cured within such time, the violation shall be considered a violation of this Deed Restriction by the Unit occupant. b. If the Town discovers a violation of this Deed Restriction by Master Lessee, the Town shall send a notice of the violation to Master Lessee, detailing the nature of the violation and allowing Master Lessee 30 days from the date the notice is given to cure said violation to the reasonable satisfaction of the Town. If a forcible entry and detainer is necessary to resolve the violation, the forcible entry and detainer shall be commenced within such 30 -day period and diligently prosecuted to completion. If the violation if not cured within such time, the violation shall be considered a violation of this Deed Restriction by Master Lessee. 9. Remedies. a.

Each occurrence is hereby deemed to be a separate violation of this Deed Restriction, and the penalty may be imposed for each and every day during any portion of which a violation is found to have been committed, continued or permitted by Master Lessee. This penalty shall not apply if it is discovered that an occupant provided false information to Master Lessee, Master Lessee reasonably relied on such false information, and the false information caused the violation. C. If addition to any other available remedies, if an occupant of a Restricted Unit is found to be in violation of this Deed Restriction (after expiration of any cure period), the occupant shall be subject to a penalty of $100 per violation as determined by the Town in each instance. Each occurrence is hereby deemed to be a separate violation of this Deed Restriction, and the penalty may be imposed for each and every day during any portion of which a violation is found to have been committed or continued by an occupant. d.
