6.5              Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the respective successors and assigns of
the Senior Lender, each Subordinate Lender and the Borrower. To the extent
permitted under the Senior Debt Documents, the Senior Lender may, from time to
time, without notice to the Subordinate Lenders, assign or transfer any or all
of the Senior Debt or any interest therein to any Person and, notwithstanding
any such assignment or transfer, or any subsequent assignment or transfer, the
Senior Debt shall, subject to the terms hereof, be and remain the Senior Debt
for purposes of this Agreement, and every permitted assignee or transferee of
any of the Senior Debt or of any interest therein shall, to the extent of the
interest of such permitted assignee or transferee in the Senior Debt, be
entitled to rely upon and be the third party beneficiary of the subordination
provided under this Agreement and shall be entitled to enforce the terms and
provisions hereof to the same extent as if such assignee or transferee were
initially a party hereto.

 

13

 

 

6.6              Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the full and
entire understanding and agreement between the Parties with regard to the
subjects hereof and supersedes any prior understandings or agreements between
the Parties with respect to the subjects hereof.

 

6.7              Relative Rights. This Agreement shall define the relative
rights of the Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lenders. Nothing in this
Agreement shall (a) impair, as among the Borrower and the Senior Lender and as
between the Borrower and the Subordinate Lenders, the obligation of the Borrower
with respect to the payment of the Senior Debt and the Subordinate Debt in
accordance with their respective terms, or (b) affect the relative rights of the
Senior Lender or the Subordinate Lenders with respect to any other creditors of
the Borrower. The terms of this Agreement shall govern even if all or any part
of the Senior Debt or the liens or security interests in favor of the Senior
Lender are avoided, disallowed, unperfected, set aside or otherwise invalidated
in any judicial proceeding or otherwise.

 

6.8              Conflict. If there is any conflict between any term, covenant
or condition of this Agreement and any term, covenant or condition of any of the
Subordinate Debt Documents or the Senior Debt Documents, the provisions of this
Agreement shall control and govern.

 

6.9              Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement
is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any applicable law or
public policy, all other terms or provisions of this Agreement shall
nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal
substance of the transaction contemplated herein is not affected in any manner
materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other
provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall
negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original
intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order
that the transaction contemplated herein are consummated as originally
contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

 

6.10          Continuation of Subordination; Termination of Agreement. This
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until Payment in Full of both
the Senior Debt and Subordinate Debt, after which this Agreement shall terminate
without further action on the part of the parties hereto.

 

6.11          Perfection Agent. The Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lenders
each agree that solely with respect to any property of the Borrower in which a
security interest may only be perfected by title, possession or "control", such
party shall serve as the contractual representative agent of the other party
solely for purposes of perfecting (to the extent not otherwise perfected) the
liens in favor of the Subordinate Lenders or liens in favor of the Senior
Lender, as applicable, subject in all events to the relative priorities
established pursuant to this Agreement and to the limitations set forth in this
Agreement with respect to such party’s liabilities, duties and obligations.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party shall be deemed to
be an agent of the other party solely for purposes of perfection under the
relevant Uniform Commercial Code and shall not incur any liabilities, fiduciary
duties or obligations whatsoever to the other party due to the provisions of
this Section 6.11. Promptly following the Payment in Full of the Senior Debt,
the Senior Lender shall, (x) deliver the remainder of such property of the
Borrower, if any, in its possession to the designee of the Subordinate Lenders,
subject to Section 2.1(b), and (y) deliver any certificates of title held by it
in respect of such property (such as motor vehicle titles) and assign the liens
of the Senior Lender on any such certificates of title, without representation,
warranty or recourse, in each case except as may otherwise be required by
applicable law or court order.

 

14

 

 

6.12          Waiver. Any waiver of compliance with any obligation, covenant,
agreement, provision, or condition of this Agreement or consent pursuant to this
Agreement shall not be effective unless evidenced by an instrument in writing
executed by the Party to be charged. Any waiver of compliance with any such
obligation, covenant, agreement, provision, or condition of this Agreement shall
not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other
non-compliance herewith.

 

6.13          Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this
Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute
one and the same agreement

 

6.14          Governing Law. This Agreement and all related documents and all
matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement, whether sounding in
contract, tort, or statute are governed by, and construed in accordance with,
the laws of the State of Colorado, without giving effect to the conflict of laws
provisions thereof to the extent such principles or rules would require or
permit the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the
State of Colorado.

 

6.15          Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute, claim or
controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Parties shall
first attempt in good faith to resolve their dispute through in-person
negotiation between authorized representatives of each of the Parties with
authority to settle the relevant dispute. Any Party may commence this
negotiation by delivering written notice to the other Parties pursuant to the
terms outlined in this Agreement. The Parties may agree to engage the services
of a jointly agreed-upon mediator to facilitate this in-person meeting, in which
case they agree to share equally in the costs of the mediation. If the dispute
cannot be settled amicably within fourteen (14) days of delivery of written
notice or the in-person meeting of authorized representatives, whichever comes
later, then the dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration as provided in
Section 6.16.

 

6.16          Binding Arbitration. Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising
out of or relating to this Agreement, including any determination of the scope
or applicability of this Section 6.16, shall be finally settled by arbitration
and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction thereof. The Parties shall share the costs of the
arbitration equally, unless otherwise provided for by the terms of this
Agreement. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language, in the
city Denver, Colorado by a single arbitrator jointly selected by the Parties. If
the Parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within thirty (30) days of
delivery of the notice of arbitration, the Parties agree to use the Judicial
Arbiter Group as an appointing authority. The arbitrator shall have the power to
grant legal and equitable remedies, but they shall not grant punitive damages.
To the extent federal and state law conflict as regards to this contract, state
law shall apply. Except as may be required by Applicable Law, neither a Party
nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any
arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of all of the Parties.
The arbitrator shall issue an award in this dispute within one year of their
appointment. The award shall be final and binding upon all Parties as from the
date rendered and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between the Parties
regarding any claims, counterclaims, issues, or accounting presented to the
arbitral tribunal. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PARTIES ARE IRREVOCABLY
WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL IN COURT, INCLUDING A TRIAL BY JURY AND THAT ALL
RIGHTS AND REMEDIES WILL BE DETERMINED BY AN ARBITRATOR AND NOT BY A JUDGE OR
JURY.

 

15

 

 

6.17          Equitable Remedies. Each Party acknowledges that a breach or
threatened breach by such Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement
would give rise to irreparable harm to the other Parties, for which monetary
damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of
a breach or a threatened breach by such Party of any such obligations, each of
the other Parties shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies
that may be available to them in respect of such breach, be entitled to
equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction,
specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of
competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).

 

6.18          U.S. Federal Marijuana Laws. The Parties agree and acknowledge
that no Party makes, will make, or shall be deemed to make or have made any
representation or warranty of any kind regarding the compliance of this
Agreement with any U.S. Federal Marijuana Laws. No Party shall have any right of
rescission or amendment arising out of or relating to any non-compliance with
U.S. Federal Marijuana Laws unless such non-compliance also constitutes a
violation of applicable law, and no Party shall seek to enforce the provisions
hereof in federal court.
