4.PROPERTY COSTS AND UTILITIES 

 

4.1All utility charges, deposits and/or fees (including but not limited to telephone, water, sewer, electric, gas) shall be arranged for and paid by Tenant directly to the utility provider or server. All such services shall be maintained in an account to be established by Tenant in Tenant’s name. Tenant agrees to promptly provide Landlord with a copy of any delinquency or disconnection notice from any such server or provider. Landlord shall be permitted to inspect and copy any such account records maintained by Tenant or any such utility server or provider. 

 

4.2All taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges and other similar governmental charges levied on or attributable to the Premises or its operation including without limitation, real property taxes or assessments levied or assessed against the Premises shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord as additional rent. Any taxes or assessments due on the leasehold interest or business property of Tenant (including, without limitation, any taxes assessed on any alterations, additions, inventory, furniture, fixtures and other personal property installed or placed in the premises by Tenant) shall be the sole responsibility of the Tenant and shall be paid directly by the Tenant. 

 

5.LATE CHARGES 

 

Tenant hereby acknowledges that late payment by Tenant of rent, or other sums due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease Agreement, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, if any installment of rent or of any sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord within five (5) days after the payment due date as set forth in paragraph 3 above, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord a late fee equal to three percent (3%) of the delinquent amount. The parties hereby agree that said late fee represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost that Landlord will incur by reason of any late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of any late charge or late payment by Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder, including the right to recover damages (excluding indirect, special, punitive or consequential damage unless such indirect, special, punitive or consequential damage is an actual damage imposed on Landlord by a third party). Interest shall accrue on any unpaid rent, late fees and penalties, and any other amounts due hereunder, from the date due until paid, at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5 %) per month compounded monthly.

 

6.INITIAL NON-REFUNDABLE PAYMENT 

 

6.1Tenant, with the execution of this Lease Agreement, shall be obligated to deposit with Landlord as a non-refundable payment (the “Initial Non-Refundable Payment”), the sum of Two-Hundred Thousand and 00 Dollars ($200,000.00) paid in monthly installments per the above payment schedule. The Initial Non-Refundable Payment will be deemed fully earned by Landlord and non-refundable to Tenant upon the date that Tenant makes the Initial Non- Refundable Payment. Such Initial Non-Refundable Payment shall be for the purposes of guaranteeing that Landlord will not actively market the Premises or any portion thereof for sale or lease, during the Lease Term. In the event Tenant exercises its Option to Purchase the Premises, the Initial Non-Refundable Payment will be applied toward the purchase price of the Premises. In the event Tenant does not exercise its Option to Purchase the Premises and defaults under any of the material terms or provisions hereof, Landlord shall retain the Initial Non-Refundable Payment subject to Section 6.3 hereof. 


3


6.2In the event that Tenant exercises the Option to Purchase the Premises in accordance with Section 15 hereof, the Initial Non-Refundable Payment shall become a portion of the purchase price required by the Purchase and Sale Agreement (as hereinafter defined). 

 

6.3Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if Landlord shall (i) commit gross negligence, intentionally misrepresent or intentionally default in any of its material obligations under this Lease Agreement or, subsequent to Landlord and Tenant entering into the Purchase and Sale Agreement (ii) commit gross negligence, intentionally misrepresent or intentionally default in any of its material obligations under the Purchase and Sale Agreement, , Landlord shall return the Initial Non-Refundable Payment to Tenant within 10 business days after receipt of notice from Tenant therefor. 

 

7.USE OF PREMISES 

 

7.1Tenant shall use the Premises for hemp processing, storage and distribution of extracted raw oil, including such ancillary uses in connection therewith as shall be reasonably required by Tenant in the operation of its business, as further described in that certain Resolution of the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado, dated July 10, 2019. Tenant shall not use the Premises nor permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will conflict with any law, statute, ordinance or governmental rule or regulation or with the requirements of any fire protection district now or hereafter constituted, relating to, or affecting the condition, use, or occupancy of the Premises. The use, possession, distribution and cultivation of any illegal substance, is strictly prohibited on the leased property. 

 

8.CONDITION OF PREMISES 

 

8.1Tenant agrees to (i) keep the Premises in good, clean condition, (ii) commit no waste thereon, (iii) obey all laws and ordinances affecting use of the Premises, and (iv) surrender the Premises at the expiration of the Lease Term in good condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. 

 

8.2Tenant represents to Landlord that Tenant has not relied on any oral or written statement of Landlord or his agents concerning the condition of the Premises and the improvements located thereon, and that Tenant has inspected the Premises, and that Tenant is satisfied with the same and accepts the Premises “AS IS”. 

 

 

9.ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS 

 

Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements to any part of the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any alterations, additions, or improvements   to the Premises by Tenant to which Landlord has agreed in writing, shall become a part of the Premises (excluding any of Tenant’s trade fixtures, furniture, equipment and other personal property) and belong to the Landlord and shall be surrendered with the Premises at the expiration of the Lease Term, except that at Landlord’s option, Tenant may be required upon expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term to remove, at Tenant’s cost, any such alterations, additions, or improvements, provided that Landlord notifies Tenant, at the time of installation of such alterations, additions or improvements, that the same may be subject to removal upon the expiration of earlier termination


4


of the Lease Term. All alterations, additions, or improvements to the Premises by Tenant to which Landlord has consented shall be made by Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, using good workmanship and materials. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any claim or lien asserted by anyone making improvements to the Premises, or supplying materials or labor therefore, at Tenant’s request. In the event that Tenant permits any lien to attach to Landlord’s interest in the Premises and fails to secure the removal of such lien immediately after its filing, Tenant shall be deemed in material default hereunder.

 

10.REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE 

 

10.1Tenant shall, at its own expense, keep and maintain the Premises in good order, repair and tenantable condition, and Tenant shall promptly and adequately repair all damage to the Premises, whether or not caused by Tenant or any of its employees, agents, contractors, invitees, or licensees, including but not limited to replacing or repairing all damaged or broken glass, fixtures, appliances and appurtenances. In addition, Tenant shall be responsible for performing, at Tenant’s cost, all roof, structural, HVAC, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, sewer, and heating system maintenance and/or other repairs required at the Premises unless caused by the acts or omissions of Landlord, in which case Landlord will be responsible for the repair thereof. At Landlord’s option, Landlord may elect to perform such work for which Tenant is responsible, in which case Landlord may require the Tenant to promptly reimburse such reasonable out-of-pocket cost to Landlord as additional rent. All repair and/or maintenance work shall be completed in a good and workmanlike manner, within a commercially reasonable period of time. Should any mechanics’ or other liens be filed against any portion of the Project by reason of the acts or omissions of, or because of a claim against, Tenant or anyone claiming under or through Tenant, Tenant shall cause the same to be canceled or discharged of record by bond or otherwise within thirty (30) days after notice from Landlord. 

 

10.2Notwithstanding the obligation to repair the Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord prompt notice of any damage to or defective condition in any part of the Premises including the roof, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating, HVAC, structural, sewer, or other systems serving, located in, or passing through the Premises. 

 

11.INSURANCE 

 

11.1Tenant agrees to maintain, at its expense at all times during the Lease Term, liability insurance naming the Landlord as an additional insured, in an amount of not less than 

$1,000,000 per occurrence, and casualty insurance with such specific coverages, and in such amounts, as the Landlord shall reasonably determine, but in no event shall the casualty insurance provide for coverage less than the full insurable replacement value of the Premises. The insurance carrier, form and substance of Tenant’s policy must be acceptable to Landlord. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a certificate of such insurance which shall declare that the insurer may not cancel the same, in whole or in part, without giving Landlord written notice of its intention to do so at least fifteen (15) days in advance.

 

11.2During the Lease Term, Landlord may obtain and maintain any insurance at Landlord’s expense that Landlord deems necessary to protect its interests in the Premises.

12.DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES 

 

12.1Except as provided below, if the Premises are substantially damaged by fire or other casualty covered by the Tenant’s insurance (collectively, a “Casualty”), Tenant shall use any insurance proceeds to pay for the cost of the repair of any such damage and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Premises are substantially damaged by fire or other casualty not covered by Tenant’s insurance, Landlord may, at Landlord’s option, repair any such damage or terminate the Lease by delivering to Tenant thirty (30) days advance written notice of such termination, in which case, any non- refundable payments paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder shall be returned to Tenant unless the cause of such damage is due to the fault or neglect of Tenant or Tenants agents, contractors, invitees or licensees; provided, however, that Landlord shall provide Tenant five 

(5) days prior written notice of its intent to terminate (“Termination Notice Period”) and afford Tenant the right to exercise the Option to Purchase within the Termination Notice Period. Additionally, in the event such damage is due to the fault or neglect of the Tenant, its agents, contractors, invitees or licensees, there shall be no abatement of rent and the non- refundable payments paid by Tenant to Landlord shall not be returned to Tenant.

 

12.2Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this section, Landlord shall not have any obligation to repair, reconstruct, or restore the Premises when the damage resulted from any casualty or occurrence during the last month of the term of this Lease or any extension thereof subject to Section 12.4 below. 

 

12.3So long as such damage or destruction is not caused by Landlord’s breach of any of the terms of this Lease and subject to Section 12.4 below, Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord, other than rent abatement, for loss of the use of the whole or any part of the Premises, Tenant’s personal property or any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by such damage, repair, reconstruction or restoration. In the event a Casualty occurs and Landlord does not terminate the Lease in accordance with Section 12.1 hereof and provided that the Premises or a portion thereof is not tenantable, then the rent payable by Tenant shall be proportionately abated in proportion to the portion of the Premises which is so untenantable. 

 

12.4Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that a casualty occurs after Tenant exercises the Option to Purchase, any damage not covered by Tenant’s insurance and Landlord has opted to repair the damage, all insurance proceeds received by Landlord less any deductible paid by Landlord (if any) in connection with such Casualty shall be credited to Tenant at closing and Landlord shall nave no obligation to repair, reconstruct, or restore the Premises. 

 

 

13.RIGHT OF ENTRY 

 

Landlord reserves and shall, during daylight hours, have the right to enter the Premises, inspect them and to repair the Premises, provided that the occupancy of Tenant shall not be unreasonably interfered with. Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means that Landlord may deem proper to obtain access in an emergency without liability.

14.ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING 

 

14.1Tenant shall not permit any part of the Premises to be used or occupied by persons other than Tenant, and the invitees and guests of Tenant, nor permit any part of the Premises to be used or occupied by any licensee or concessionaire. 

 

14.2Tenant shall not assign, sublet, or part with the possession of all or part of the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. 

 

14.2     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Tenant shall be permitted to sublet all or part of the Premises to an Affiliate (as hereinafter defined). As used herein, the term “Affiliate” means, as to Tenant, any person or entity which controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, Tenant; “Control” (and with correlative meaning, “controlled by” and “under common control with”) means ownership or voting control, directly or indirectly, of fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting stock, partnership interests or other beneficial ownership interests of the entity in question.

 

15.OPTION TO PURCHASE PREMISES 

 

15.1During the term hereof, so long as Tenant has not violated any of the material terms of this Lease Agreement beyond any notice and/or cure periods, Tenant shall have the option to purchase the Premises (the “Option to Purchase”), in its “as is” condition, with all faults, at the purchase price described in paragraph 15.3 below. 

 

15.2The Option to Purchase described herein shall be exercised by Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of written notice of Tenant’s intent to purchase the Premises at the price set forth in paragraph 15.3 below, and on the specific terms set forth in the contact attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”).   Such notice must be submitted by Tenant to Landlord prior to November 30, 2022 and closing must occur before the end of the original Lease term. 

 

15.3The purchase price for the Premises shall be $1,200,000.00, with a credit provided to the Tenant, at closing, in the amount set forth in the Rent Schedule described in Paragraph 3 setting forth the Initial Non-Refundable Payment. The Initial Non-Refundable Payment paid hereunder to Landlord shall be a credit toward the purchase price and will appear on the settlement statement at closing. 

 

15.4Once this Option to Purchase is exercised by Tenant’s timely delivery of the notice described in paragraph 15.2 above to Landlord, the terms of the purchase shall be thereafter controlled by the provisions of the Purchase and Sale Agreement. Tenant’s possession of the Premises, however, until the date of closing, shall continue to be controlled by the terms of this Lease. 

 

15.5The Option to Purchase shall terminate upon notice from Landlord to Tenant in the event of any breach of the material terms of this Lease by Tenant beyond any applicable notice and/or cure periods. 


7


 

16.CONDEMNATION 

 

If any portion of the Premises is taken or appropriated by any public or quasi-public authority under the power of eminent domain (a “Condemnation”), either party hereto shall have the right, at its option, to terminate this Lease, effective upon the date of taking, and Landlord shall be entitled to any and all income, rent, award, or any interest therein whatsoever which may be paid or made in connection with such public or quasi-public taking (collectively, the “Award”). Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for the value of any unexpired term of this Lease. If more than twenty percent (20%) of the Premises is taken and neither party elects to terminate as herein provided, the rental thereafter to be paid shall be equitably reduced. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, in the event that a Condemnation occurs after Tenant has exercised its Option to Purchase pursuant to Section 15 hereof, then any Award received in connection with such Condemnation shall be distributed pursuant to the terms set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement.

 

17.HOLD HARMLESS 

 

Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord against and from any and all claims, costs, reasonable attorney fees, expenses and liabilities arising out of or resulting directly or indirectly from any alterations, additions, repairs, and improvement of, or use of the Premises by Tenant or any agent, employee, contractor, invitee, or licensee of the Tenant. Tenant hereby assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to persons, in, upon, or about the Premises, from any cause other than Landlord’s gross negligence or failure to substantially perform any of Landlord’s covenants under this Lease, and Tenant hereby waives all claims in respect thereof against Landlord. Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for any damage or loss of any property by theft or otherwise, or for any injury to or damage to persons or property resulting from fire, explosion, gas, electricity, water, rain or snow which may leak from any part of the Premises or from the pipes, appliances, or plumbing works therein or from the roof, street or subsurface or from any other place, except as provided elsewhere herein or caused by Landlord’s gross negligence. Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord in the event of fire, accident or defect in the Premises or in the fixtures or equipment located herein.

 

18.VACATING THE PREMISES / HOLDOVER TENANCY 

 

Upon expiration or other termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord, and Tenant shall return the Premises to Landlord in good condition and repair, except for ordinary wear and tear. Any property left in the Premises at the expiration or other termination of this Lease which is not claimed by Tenant within ten (10) days after such expiration or termination shall conclusively be deemed abandoned and may be sold or otherwise disposed of by Landlord. Tenant expressly releases Landlord of and from any and all claims and liability for damage to or loss of property left by Tenant on or in the Premises at expiration or other termination, and Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord against any and all claims and liability with respect thereto. If Tenant holds over after the Lease Term with the express consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be from month to month only at such rental rate as is mutually agreed between Tenant and Landlord. If Tenant holds over after the Lease Term without the consent of Landlord, Tenant shall be deemed to be occupying the Premises by tenancy at sufferance only, and shall be liable for rent at twice the monthly installment of rent as set forth in the Rent Schedule for the last month of the Lease Term. Such tenancy at sufferance may be ended by Landlord at any time upon at least three (3) days advance notice by Landlord to Tenant. If the Premises are not surrendered upon expiration of the


8


Lease Term or earlier termination thereof, Tenant shall be responsible to Landlord for all damages (excluding indirect, special, punitive or consequential damage unless such indirect, special, punitive or consequential damage is an actual damage imposed on Landlord by a third party), costs and expenses owed which Landlord shall suffer by reason thereof including reasonable attorney fees.

 

19.DEFAULT 

 

The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default and breach of this Lease Agreement by Tenant:

 

19.1The vacating or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant. 

 

19.2The failure of Tenant to make any payment of rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, within five (5) days after the date said payment is due. 

 

19.3The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any other non-monetary the covenants, conditions, or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant, if such failure shall continue for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice thereof is given to Tenant except in connection with a breach which cannot be remedied or cured within said twenty 

(20) period, in which event the time of Tenant within which to cure such breach shall be extended for such time as shall be reasonably necessary to cure the same, but only if Tenant, within such initial twenty (20) day period, shall promptly commence and thereafter proceed diligently and continuously to cure such breach, and provided further that such period of time shall not be so extended as to jeopardize the interest of Landlord in the Premises or so as to subject Landlord to any liability, civil or criminal.

 

19.4The making by Tenant of any general assignment or general arrangement for the benefit of creditors, the filing by or against Tenant of a petition in bankruptcy, or a petition of reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy or the appointment of a trustee or a receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, or the attachment, execution, or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, provided the same is not contested, in good faith, by Tenant, within thirty (30) days of the date such case, proceeding or other action is instituted (or such shorter time period as may be prescribed by local bankruptcy rule, the bankruptcy court or other applicable law) or is not dismissed within 90 days. 

 

20.LANDLORD’S REMEDIES 

 

20.1In the event Tenant abandons the Premises, Landlord may, but shall be under no obligation to, re-enter and re-let the Premises in whole or in part without terminating this Lease. Reletting may be done either in Landlord’s own name or under Landlord’s name as agent of the Tenant, for a term or terms which, at the option of the Landlord, may be for the remainder of the term of this Lease, or for any longer or shorter period. At its option, Landlord may make any such alterations to the Premises as in Landlord’s reasonable judgment Landlord considers advisable and necessary in connection with such reletting, and the making of such shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability under this Lease. Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way for failure to re-let the Premises (so long as a reasonable effort to do so is made) or, in the event they are re-let, for failure to collect rent under the reletting. In no  


9


event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess of rent under such reletting over the sums payable to Landlord for rental payments.

 

20.2Intentionally Omitted 

 

20.3In the event of an abandonment or other default by Tenant, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease upon notice to Tenant, in which event Tenant shall promptly surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord. Upon termination, the Option to Purchase granted in paragraph 15 herein shall immediately terminate as well. Landlord shall also have the right: 

 

20.3.1To remove any and all persons and property from the Premises, with legal process, pursuant to such rights and remedies as the laws of the State of Colorado shall then provide or permit, but Landlord shall not be obligated to effect such removal. Any property remaining on the Premises may, at Landlord’s option, be stored or otherwise dealt with as provided in this Lease or as such laws may then provide or permit, including, but not limited to, the right of Landlord to sell or otherwise dispose of the same or to store the same, or any part thereof, in a warehouse or elsewhere at the expense and risk of and for the account of Tenant. 

 

20.3.2To recover from Tenant damages (excluding indirect, special, punitive or consequential damage unless such indirect, special, punitive or consequential damage is an actual damage imposed on Landlord by a third party), which shall include but shall not be limited to: (i) such out-of-pocket expenses as Landlord may incur for reletting and for putting the Premises in good order, condition and repair, and for legal expenses, reasonable attorney fees and court costs resulting from Tenant’s breach; (ii) the equivalent of the amount of rent and other charges which would be payable under this Lease by Tenant if the Lease were still in effect, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting after deducting all of Landlord’s expenses in connection with such reletting, which Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly on the days on which the rent would have been payable under this Lease if the Lease were still in effect, and which Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant as each monthly deficiency shall arise. In lieu of collecting any or further monthly deficiencies as set forth above, Landlord shall be entitled to accelerate the balance of the rental due hereunder and to recover same from Tenant, as liquidated damages for such breach. 

 

20.3.3To obtain possession of, and sell, all personal property located upon the Premises if not claimed by Tenant within ten (10) days after such termination. 

 

20.3.4To use self-help to remove Tenant from possession of the Premises. In the event Tenant fails to pay any sums due Landlord hereunder after service by Landlord of the five (5) day notice provided for elsewhere herein, then and in that event, Landlord may change the locks on all gates and doors leading to the Premises. Tenant waives any and all rights, claims or causes of action Tenant may have against Landlord as the result thereof, except that Tenant does not waive any claim it may have against Landlord for breach of its covenants hereunder. 


10


 

20.3.5To enforce, to the extent permitted by the laws of the State of Colorado then in force and effect, any other rights or remedies set forth in this Lease or otherwise applicable hereto by operation of law or contract. 

 

All of the remedies described above shall be cumulative.

 

21.ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE – Intentionally Deleted. 

 

 

22.GENERAL PROVISIONS 

 

22.1Waiver. The waiver by Landlord of any term, covenant, or condition contained herein shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition on any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant, or condition contained herein. The subsequent acceptance of rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant, or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rental so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of the acceptance of such rent. 

 

22.2Subordination.

Tenant will execute and deliver such further instruments required to verify or confirm such subordination as may be desired by the holders of said mortgages or deeds of trust or by Landlord.1

(a)In the event that Seller shall commit gross negligence, intentionally misrepresent or intentionally default in any of its material obligations hereunder to be performed prior to Closing, for any reason other than Purchaser’s default or a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to a right to do so under the provisions hereof, Purchaser, as its sole and exclusive remedy, may terminate this Agreement (other than the Surviving Obligations) and receive a refund of all of the Earnest Money and the Initial Non-Refundable Payment, and shall be reimbursed for third party costs up to 

$15,000.00 incurred with respect to this transaction.

 

(b)Except as set forth above, in no event shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for 

damages.

 

8.2Breach by Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to comply with this Agreement and fails to cure such default within three (3) business days after receipt or written notice thereof or fails to close as required by this Agreement, Seller may terminate this Agreement (except for the Surviving Obligations) and thereupon shall be entitled to all of the Earnest Money as liquidated damages (and not as a penalty) and as Seller’s sole remedy and relief hereunder. Seller and Purchaser have made this provision for 


9


liquidated damages because it would be difficult to calculate, on the date hereof, the amount of actual damages for such breach, and Seller and Purchaser agree that these sums represent reasonable compensation to Seller for such breach.

 

9.

FUTURE OPERATIONS

 

From the date of this Agreement until the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, Seller shall not enter into any leases or new contracts (other than those terminable without penalty at the Closing) or create any encumbrances against the Property, nor file for any further entitlement applications or other changes to the use of the Property after the Effective Date without the prior written consent of Purchaser.
