event such approval is not obtained, your Restricted Share Rights to acquire Allied Nevada common shares issued from treasury will be replaced by equivalent rights to acquire the same number of Allied Nevada common shares to be purchased in the
market by an independent trustee. The purchase will be funded by Allied Nevada and the terms of the replacement rights will be based substantially on the same terms and conditions as the Restricted Share Rights granted hereunder and the
corresponding Plan. Your rights to acquire common shares purchased in the market by the trustee, shall be subject to the same 60 days prior election deferral feature as outlined in the Plan.

 Exhibit 10.35 
 SERVICING AGREEMENT 
 BETWEEN 
 BROOKE CORPORATION 
 AND 
 BROOKE CREDIT CORPORATION 
 This
Servicing Agreement (this "Agreement") is made and entered into as of July 18, 2007, by and between Brooke Credit Corporation, a Delaware Corporation (the "Company"), and Brooke Corporation, a Kansas corporation ("BC"). 
 WHEREAS, the Company desires to engage BC to provide the Services (as defined below) to the Company according to the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth herein. 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements, covenants and representations herein contained, the
parties hereto agree as follows: 
  

	1.	The Services. 

 a. BC shall provide to
Company the services described in Exhibit A, Schedule of Services, attached hereto (which services are hereinafter referred to as the "Services"). BC shall have no obligation to perform any services or have any obligations pursuant to this
Agreement, except as specifically set forth on Exhibit A, or otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement. BC shall perform the Services in accordance with its customary standards, policies and procedures in performing similar obligations with
respect to similarly situated third parties. 
 b. Reserved. 
 c. BC grants to the Company a non-exclusive, non-transferable, and royalty-free license to use the name “Brooke” and such trademarks and service marks as are registered by BC with the United State Patent and
Trademark Office or claimed by BC and pending registration with such Trademark Office (collectively, such name and marks to be referred to as the “Licensed Marks”) solely in connection with the Company’s operation of its business. The
Company shall make no other use of the Licensed Marks. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the rights granted to the Company by and obtained by the Company as a result of or in connection with this Agreement are license rights only, and nothing
contained in this Agreement constitutes or shall be construed to be an assignment of any or all of BC's rights in any of the Licensed Marks. BC retains the right to specify, from time to time, the format in which the Company shall use and display
each Licensed Mark, and the Company shall only use or display the Licensed Mark in a format approved by BC. The Company shall not at any time, whether during or after the term of this Agreement, do or cause to be done any act or thing challenging,
contesting, impairing, invalidating, or tending to impair or invalidate any of BC's rights in any of the Licensed Marks or any registrations derived from such rights. The Company shall not assign, sublicense, transfer, or otherwise convey the
Company's rights or obligations with respect to the Licensed Marks without BC's prior written consent. The Company shall promptly notify BC of any and all infringements, imitations, simulations or other illegal use or misuse of any of the Licensed
Marks which come to the Company's attention. As the sole owner of the Licensed Marks, BC shall determine whether to take any action to prevent the infringement, imitation, simulation or other illegal use or misuse of the Licensed Marks. The Company
shall render BC all reasonable assistance in connection with any matter pertaining to the protection, enforcement or infringement of the Licensed Marks used by the Company, whether in the courts, administrative or quasi-judicial agencies, or
otherwise. In the event BC intends not to renew this agreement, enter into a replacement servicing agreement or enter into another agreement that provides the rights to the Company set forth in this paragraph 1(c), BC will provide the Company with
notice of its intention and the Company will continue to enjoy the rights set forth in this paragraph 1(c) for a period of 90 days following the later of: (i) the receipt by the Company of 

 
such written notice; or (ii) the expiration of the agreement which provides for the rights set forth in this paragraph 1(c) or rights substantially
similar thereto. Nothing set forth in this agreement shall be interpreted to require the Company to utilize the Licensed Marks. Likewise, if the Company’s use of the Licensed Marks is reasonably determined to have caused, or have the potential
of causing, material damage to the value of the Licensed Marks, BC may terminate the license granted to the Company upon 90 days written notice. 
  

	2.	Term. The initial term of this Agreement shall begin on the date first above written and expire on December 31, 2007, subject to the terms and provisions of
Section 6 below. This Agreement shall be renewed upon terms and conditions mutually agreed by the parties for a subsequent term of one year 

  

	3.	Contract Sum. 

 a. In consideration of the
performance of the Services by BC, the Company shall pay to BC the fees set forth in the Schedule of Fees attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Contract Sum”) at the times and in accordance with Exhibit B. The Contract Sum shall be the sole
compensation due BC in connection with its performance of the Services. 
 b. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, BC shall be entitled to
reimbursement from the Company for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the performance of the Services unless BC is specifically responsible for such amounts as set forth on the Schedule of Reimbursements attached hereto as Exhibit C at the times and
in accordance with Exhibit C. 
 c. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, BC shall be responsible for fees incurred in connection with retaining
any additional independent contractors or subcontractors in connection with performing the Services. 
  

	4.	Events of Default by BC. The following shall constitute "BC Events of Default" hereunder by BC: 

 a. failure on the part of BC duly to observe or perform in any material respect any of the covenants or agreements on the part of BC set forth in this
Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of fifteen (15) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to BC by the Company (unless such failure is the result of
the Company’s failure to observe or perform any of its obligations hereunder, in which case BC’s failure shall not constitute an event of default); or 
 b. a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or
appointing a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against BC and such
decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; or 
 c. BC shall consent to the
appointment of a trustee, conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to BC or of or relating to all or substantially all of the property
of BC; or 
 d. BC shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of
any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations or take any action in furtherance of the foregoing. 
  

	5.	Events of Default by the Company. The following shall constitute "Company Events of Default" hereunder by the Company: 

 a. any failure by the Company to make any payment required to be made by the Company to BC within 20 days of the date of invoice date; or 

 b. any failure on the part of the Company duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of
the covenants or agreements on the part of the Company set forth in this Agreement or any governing document by and between the Company and BC for the transactions being serviced which continues unremedied for a period of fifteen (15) days
after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Company by BC; or 
 c. a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or appointing a conservator or
receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Company and such decree or order
shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; or 
 d. the Company shall consent to the
appointment of a trustee, conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Company or of or relating to all or substantially all of the
property of Company; or 
 e. the Company shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition
to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations or take any action in furtherance of the foregoing. 
  

	6.	Remedies. 

 (a) Remedies of the Company. If a BC

Services. In addition, within five (5) business days of any termination, BC will return any of the Company's materials at the Company's expense. The terms and provisions of this Section 6(c) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

 (d) Limitation of Damages. Neither party shall be liable to the other party for punitive, consequential or indirect damages. Additionally,
the Company acknowledges that BC is merely providing a service for a fee under this Agreement. Accordingly, BC shall not be liable to Company under this Agreement for any amounts in excess of any fees paid to BC hereunder, unless such loss or damage
is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of BC. The terms and provisions of this Section 6(d) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

obligation or representation or warranty (as of the date when made) of BC contained in this Agreement, and/or (iii) any claim by any third party in any way related directly or indirectly to the subject matter of this Agreement unless the claim

the other party (the "Disclosing Party") regarding its company matters, systems, procedures, assets or operations shall be held in strict confidence at all times and the Receiving Party will not disclose or otherwise divulge any of such information
to any party without the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party. Provided, however, that the Receiving Party shall be authorized to disclose such information (i) to any of its directors, members, officers, employees, representatives,
accountants, auditors, attorneys and agents and to any of its affiliates, subsidiaries and parents and any of their respective directors, members, officers, employees, representatives, accountants, auditors, attorneys and agents to the extent any of

(ii) to any government agency with jurisdiction over the Receiving Party or the Receiving Party's Representatives or the transaction contemplated herein; (iii) as may be required by law or regulation, judicial or administrative order,
ruling or judgment or legal obligation to disclose (which may 

	 	 
include, by way of example and not by way of limitation, any discovery or disclosure demands or requirements issued or arising in any judicial or
administrative investigation or proceeding); (iv) if it is advised by its counsel that its failure to do so would be unlawful, or (v) if failure to do so would expose the Receiving Party to loss, liability, claim or damage for which it has
not been adequately indemnified to its satisfaction. The terms and provisions of this Section 10 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. 

  

	11.	Assignability. This Agreement may be assigned by either party hereto to any entity buying substantially all of the assigning party’s assets or ownership interests,
provided such entity executes an assumption agreement reasonably acceptable to the non-assigning party. 

  

	12.	Governing Law. This Agreement and the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Kansas, without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions. 

  

	13.	Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the terms, covenants, provisions and conditions hereof shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the respective
heirs, successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, that, except as set forth in Section 11 above, neither party shall assign this Agreement, or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its right, title or interest herein,
to any person or entity without the prior written consent of the other party. There shall be no third party beneficiaries to this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to confer on any person other than the parties hereto and their successors
and permitted assigns any rights, obligations, remedies or liabilities. 

  

	14.	Merger. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 2, any corporation or limited liability company into which either party may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any corporation or limited liability company resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which either party shall be a party, or any corporation or limited liability company succeeding to the business of such party
shall be successor of such party hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to
effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. 

  

	15.	Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, then, to the extent that such invalidity or unenforceability shall not deprive either
party of any material benefit intended to be provided by this Agreement, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall be binding upon the parties hereto. 

  

	16.	Jury Trial. The parties hereto hereby knowingly and voluntarily waive any right which either or both of them shall have to receive a trial by jury with respect to any claims,
controversies or disputes which shall arise out of this Agreement or the subject matter hereof. 

  

	17.	Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the exhibits and schedules attached hereto embody the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the

	19.	Headings. The headings of the Sections contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or
any provision hereof. 

  

	20.	 Waiver. All remedies available to either party for one or more breaches by the other party are and shall be deemed cumulative and may be exercised separately
or concurrently without waiver of any other remedies. No 

	 	 
party hereto shall be deemed to have waived any right, power or privilege under this Agreement unless such waiver shall have been expressed in a written
instrument signed by the waiving party. The failure of any party hereto to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provision or a right of such party to thereafter enforce such provision or any other
provision of this Agreement. 

  

	21.	Construction. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise clearly requires, (i) references in this Agreement to the plural include the singular, the singular the
plural, the masculine the feminine, the feminine the masculine and the part the whole and (ii) the word "or" will not be construed as exclusive and the word “include,” "including" or similar terms shall be construed as if followed by

	22.	Any issue, claim or dispute that may arise out of or in connection with this Agreement (including exhibits and addenda) and/or the relationship of the parties and which the
parties are not able to resolve themselves by negotiation, shall be submitted to mediation in a manner agreed to by the parties. The parties agree to use mediation to attempt to resolve such issue, claim or dispute prior to filing any arbitration
action, lawsuits, complaints, charges or claims. The parties will select an independent mediator agreeable to both parties. The mediator will communicate with the parties to arrange and convene the mediation process that will be most efficient,
convenient and effective for both parties. The costs of the mediation and fees of the mediator will be borne equally by the parties. The parties will cooperate with the mediator in coming to a reasonable agreement on the mediation arrangements which
will include the time and place for conducting the mediation, who will attend or participate in the mediation and what information and written material will be exchanged before the mediation. The mediation will be conducted in Overland Park,
Kansas. 

  

	23.	Any issue, claim, dispute or controversy that may arise out of, in connection with or relating to this Agreement (including exhibits and addenda) and/or the relationship of the
parties, and which the parties are not able to resolve through mediation, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, and judgment on the award rendered by the
arbitrator(s) may be entered in a court having jurisdiction thereof. The parties agree to use arbitration to resolve any such issue, claim, dispute or controversy prior to and in lieu of filing any lawsuits, complaints, charges or claims. The
costs of the arbitration and fees of the arbitrator(s) will be borne equally by the parties.
