BUYER shall pay all expenses incurred by it in its operation on the Property and shall allow no liens arising from any act of BUYER to remain upon the interest of SELLER in and to the Property; provided, however, that if BUYER, in good faith, disputes the validity or amount of any claim, lien or liability asserted against it with respect to the Property, it shall not be required to payor discharge the same until the amount and validity thereof have been finally determined. BUYER shall, pursuant to NRS 108.2413, obtain the release of a mechanic's lien by posting a surety bond.

BUYER agrees that, during the Term of this Agreement, commencing with the annual assessment year beginning the 1st day of September, 2011, and for each subsequent assessment year in which this Agreement is active, it shall perform annual assessment work or pay claim maintenance fees required to maintain such claims and timely record, file and furnish to SELLER any and all affidavits, notices of intent to hold, proof of payments, and other documents reasonably necessary to preserve and maintain the Property at least thirty (30) days before such payments or documents are due.

SELLER shall execute all documents and shall take such other actions as are reasonably necessary to assist BUYER in its efforts to perfect, defend or protect SELLER's title. If the title is defective or less than as represented in Paragraph 2, then (and only then) the costs and expenses of perfecting, defending or correcting title (including, but without being limited to, the cost of attorney's fees and the costs of releasing or satisfying any mortgages, liens and encumbrances) shall be a credit against payments thereafter to be made to SELLER under the provisions of Schedule I, unless the encumbrance or dispute arises from BUYER's failure to perform its obligations hereunder (in which case such costs shall be borne by BUYER). In all matters related to the SELLER's title to the Property, BUYER shall act in good faith as a fiduciary of SELLER and shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to protect and preserve SELLER's title to the Property. During the term of this Agreement, under no circumstances shall BUYER take any action or omit to take an action if such action or omission may result in SELLER losing title to the Property.
