WHEREAS, Senate Bill #90-118 was passed by the Colorado General Assembly and

WHEREAS, Structural Component Systems, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the
"Taxpayer") represents that it has invested or intends to invest in qualifying personal property
and wishes to receive the incentive payment benefits available under Senate Bill #90-118 and
Senate Bill #94-182; and
WHEREAS, the Taxpayer has been determined to be currently eligible for benefits
under Senate Bill #90-118 and Senate Bill #94-182 and the policy concerning incentive

paid to the company by the Taxing Authority. Only property placed in service in
the County during the tax years given above shall qualify.
2. Such payment shall be made to the Taxpayer or assignee by the County
Treasurer within 90 days of receipt of full payment by the Taxpayer of all

that the Taxpayer remains eligible for the payment under Senate Bill #90-118
and Senate Bill #94-182 and the Resolution of the Taxing Authority.
3. Such payment shall be made only if all taxes and assessments levied and
assessed by the Taxing Authority shall be current.
4. Such payment shall be made only if Taxpayer remains eligible to receive the
incentive payments under criteria established in Senate Bill #90-118 and Senate
Bill #94-182 and the Resolution of the Taxing Authority in each year of this
