7. In 1992, the County commenced the GA Area Redevelopment Project
which resulted in the conversion of the site of the historical rental car wash facility to
general aviation aircraft parking and the demolition of that facility, and also will result in
the conversion of the site of the present rental car fueling facility and the demolition of
that facility to use for general aviation.
8. The Airport has little land available for development, and its growth is
constrained by surrounding features, including mountainous terrain, a state highway and
extensive commercial development.
9. Lack of land available for development at the Airport has resulted in a
requirement by the County that the Companies jointly build a facility to accommodate
both the rental car wash and fueling facilities (the "Service Facility").
10. The recently approved update to the Airport Layout Plan identified an area
in the back of the intercept lots as the site for the Service Facility.
11. The Use Agreements require the Companies to jointly develop the Service
Facility pursuant to the Amended Bid Form issued March 26, 1996 and enter into a Joint
Facilities Lease and Redevelopment Agreement.
12. Pursuant to the Airport Financial Policy adopted by the County, Airport
improvements are to be financed, where and to the extent possible, by the users of the
facility.
13. To finance the planning, design, construction and equipping and other
related costs of the Service Facility, the Companies are required to advance the
redevelopment costs and then to be reimbursed over a period of years through a Use Fee
payable by their customers.
14. Zions First National Bank ("Zions") has agreed in an Escrow Agreement
dated April 1, 1996, to act as escrow agent and to hold and invest all monies deposited by
the Companies. The Companies have previously deposited $59,000 per Company as an
initial deposit for the costs of the Service Facility and will deposit the remaining amounts
necessary to complete the Service Facility with Zions.
15. In response to the County's requirement that the Companies advance the
funds for the redevelopment of the Service Facility, the Companies have asked the
County to issue, and the County has agreed to issue, revenue promissory notes (the
"Notes") and to repay those Notes through a Use Fee payable solely by the customers of
the Companies.
16. The Notes shall be in the amount of each Company's share of costs for the
Service Facility plus interest at 2% above prime.
Ordinance No. 98 -30

17. The terms and conditions upon which the County will issue the Notes to

Companies or the Paying Agent any rights additional to those conferred elsewhere in this Agreement.

ESCROW AGREEMENT
A-1
ESCROW AGREEMENT
THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), dated as of April 1, 1996, by and
among First Interstate Bank of Denver, N.A. (the "Escrow Agent"), a national banking
association, Avis Rent-A-Car Systems, Inc., Farabee Adventures Inc., Eagle Rent-A-Car, Inc.,
Westrac, Inc. and The Hertz Corporation (collectively, the "RACs").
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, Pitkin County, Colorado (the "County") is the owner and operator of the
Aspen/Pitkin County Airport (the "Airport") located near Aspen, Colorado and through a recent
Request for Qualifications and Invitation to Bid, as amended (the "RFQ/ITB") selected each of
the RACs to serve as the rental car concessionaires at the Airport for six -year terms, -
commencing on May 1, 1996;
WHEREAS, the RFQ/ITB required that the RACs construct an integrated modern car -
wash facility and an above -ground fueling system (the "Project") on the Airport and pay for the
costs thereof by depositing with a third party such as the Escrow Agent, the necessary funds for
the acquisition, design and construction of the Project, to be disbursed by the Escrow Agent;
WHEREAS, the RFQ/ITB also requires that the RACs retain a joint project manager (the
"Manager") to assist the RACs in developing and constructing the Project.
WHEREAS, each of the RACs has deposited with the County, which has subsequently
deposited with the Escrow Agent, funds in the amount of $59,000.00, and the Escrow Agent is
presently holding in escrow a total amount of $295,000 (the "Initial Deposit");
WHEREAS, it is necessary to establish an escrow account (the "Escrow Account") and
provide for the deposit therein of the Initial Deposit and such additional monies as may be
4187/26/158917.3 1
provided by each of the RACs pursuant to the RFQ/ITB for the payment of costs of the Project
to be incurred after the date hereof, the investment of such escrowed funds and the disbursement
therefrom in order to pay for the costs of the Project.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. The Escrow Account is to be funded with the Initial Deposit and such other
monies from each of the RACs executing this Agreement in accordance with the additional
capital contributions provisions of the RFQ/ITB, and such monies are to be held, invested and
disbursed for the benefit of the RACs as provided herein.
2. (a) Moneys held in the Escrow Account shall be invested initially by the Escrow
Agent only in the Pacifica Treasury Money Market Fund. Such monies may be invested in other
Investment Obligations (defined below in subsection (b)) if so directed by the RACs pursuant
to a unanimous approval of the RACs, or an MII Vote as described below in subsection (c).
Such Investment Obligations must mature in the amounts and at the times necessary to provide
funds to make the payments to which such monies are applicable as estimated by the Manager.
The Escrow Agent shall not incur liability in acting in good faith in making investments
authorized herein. Any and all investment income from such investments shall remain in and
be credited to the Escrow Account.
(b) For purposes of this Agreement, "Investment Obligations" shall mean
Government Obligations (direct obligations of the United States for which its full faith and credit
are pledged, or obligations of a person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or
instrumentality of the United States the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full
faith and credit obligation of the United States of America); money market accounts backed by
4187n6/158917.3 2
Government Obligations and rated in the highest rating category assigned by any nationally
recognized rating agency; obligations issued or guaranteed by any state of the United States
having a rating in one of the three highest rating categories assigned by any nationally
recognized agency; obligations issued by any political subdivision of any state which obligations
have a rating in one of the two highest rating categories assigned by any nationally recognized
rating agency; prime commercial paper having a rating in the highest rating category assigned
by any nationally recognized rating agency; bankers acceptances drawn on and accepted by
commercial banks; certificates of deposit or time deposits constituting direct obligations of any
bank (including the Escrow Agent) or savings and loan association, provided, however, that
investments may be made only in those certificates of deposit or time deposits in banks or
savings and loan associations which banks' or savings and loan associations' senior debt has a
rating in one of the three highest rating categories assigned by any nationally recognized rating
agency or which certificates or deposit or time deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation, if then in existence, and may not exceed the maximum of such insurance
unless such excess is fully collateralized by securities or obligations in which investments may
be made directly; and repurchase agreements, if there is an actual sale to the Escrow Agent on
behalf of the RACs of the Investment Obligations and if the Escrow Agent on behalf of the
RACs has a perfected seeurity interest in such Investment Obligations.
(c) In the event the RACs are required to make a decision hereunder and the
unanimous approval of the RACs is not obtained, then such decision shall be made by a majority
in interest vote of the RACs ("MII Vote"). An MII Vote shall be considered to be affirmative
if the question put to a vote has received either: the affirmative vote of the two RACs with the
4187126/158917.3 3
largest relative market shares in the 12-month period fully reported prior to the date of the MII
Vote, plus one or more companies representing an additional 10.0% market share during the
same period; or, so long as there are five RACs eligible to vote, the affirmative vote of four of
the five RACs, regardless of market share. In the event that such MII Vote procedure does not
result in an affirmative vote, the County shall reasonably consider all the information presented
and then make the final decision regarding the question being asked. The Manager shall be
given the authority to establish a binding procedure for taking MII Votes, including deadlines
for responses and the effect of non -responses; provided, however, that as a part of such
proceedings all unanimous consent and MII Vote questions shall be forwarded to each of the
RACs and the County at least three business days before a decision regarding the question being'
asked must be made. The form of the vote tabulation (including the MII Vote) is attached hereto
as Exhibit A. All completed vote tabulations shall be promptly forwarded by the Manager to
each of the RACs, the Escrow Agent and the County.
3. The Escrow Agent is hereby directed to disburse the funds from the Escrow
Account to the persons identified by Manager as set forth in a completed and signed Requisition
Certificate, in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof. Copies of all
completed and signed Requisition Certificates shall be forwarded by the Escrow Agent to each
of the RACs and the County, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Escrow Agent. The Escrow
Agent shall keep and maintain adequate records pertaining to the Escrow Account and all
payments therefrom, which shall be open to inspection by the County, the RACs or their duly
authorized agents during normal business hours of the Escrow Agent. Upon termination of this
4187/26/158917.3 4
Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall file a statement of income and disbursements with respect
to the Escrow Account with the Manager and each of the RACs.
If the actual design and construction of the Project has not commenced as of October 1,
1996, and the reason for such delay is not the subject of legal proceedings between all or any
of the RACs and the County, or among the RACs, the Manager shall so notify the Escrow
Agent in writing and all monies (including investment earnings) in the Escrow Account as of
such date shall be payable to each of the RACs, pro rata in proportion to the respective amounts
deposited by each of the RACs. Such amounts shall be payable by the Escrow Agent to the
RACs without the requirement of a signed and completed Requisition Certificate.
4. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility to any persons in connection
herewith except those specifically provided herein and shall not be responsible for anything done
or omitted to be done by it except for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act,
or its own misconduct or default in the performance of any obligation imposed on it hereunder.
The Escrow Agent has no duty to determine or inquire into the happening or occurrence of any
event or contingency or the performance or failure of performance of the RACs or the County
with respect to arrangements or contracts with others with respect to the construction and
financing of the Project. It is the Escrow Agent's sole duty hereunder being to safeguard the
Escrow Account and to dispose of and deliver the same in accordance with this Agreement. If,
however, the Escrow Agent is called upon by the terms of this Agreement to determine the
occurrence of any event or contingency, the Escrow Agent shall be obligated, in making such
determination, only to exercise such care and skill as an escrow agent acting under industry
custom would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs, and in
4187,26/158917.3 5
event of error in making such determination the Escrow Agent shall be liable only for its own
misconduct or its negligence in the light of all the circumstances, taking into consideration the
time and facilities available to the Escrow Agent in the ordinary conduct of its business. In
determining the occurrence of any such event or contingency the Escrow Agent may request
from the RACs, the County or any other person such reasonable additional evidence as the
Escrow Agent in its discretion may deem necessary to determine any fact relating to the
occurrence of such event or contingency, and in this connection may inquire and consult, among
others, with the RACs and the County at any time, and the Escrow Agent shall not be liable for
any damages resulting from its delay in acting hereunder pending its examination of the
additional evidence requested by it, provided that these provisions do not apply to facts and
events which the Escrow Agent has acknowledged and agreed to in this Agreement.
5. The RACs hereby agree to notify the Escrow Agent of the name and full address
of the Manager (including the telephone and facsimile numbers), and provide the Escrow Agent
with an original specimen signature of the Manager, immediately upon selection of the Manager
by the RACs.
