MEYER 1416 DODGE STREET DISTRICT REAL ESTAT urviox OMAHA,NEBRASKA 68179 PAC C HIM �9g0 September 8, 1980 " Sc.e11 �, CD 5845-L c Weld County Office of the Board of County Commissioners Greeley, Colorado 80631 Gentlemen: Please refer to agreement C.D. No. 5845-L between Union Pacific Railroad Company and Weld County covering lease of right of way for highway purposes in Pierce, Colorado which expired by latest extension July 31, 1978. In the past, our leases were prepared on an individual basis, generally for a 5-year term. Extension or renewal of these agreements for a further 5-year term required individual negotiations which, of course, were costly and time consuming. Therefore, rather than prepare new leases for a period of five years as we have in the past, we have adopted a new standard highway lease agreement (copy attached) which we are implementing on a system-wide basis. The new agreements are prepared for a standard 25-year term. In order to further expedite the handling of these leases, we have standardized our highway lease rentals and allowed for a discounted lump sum rental payment as follows: Total Rental for 25-year Discounted Lease Area Rental term if invested at 7% Rental Rate 1.00 to 4.99 ac. $100.00 per year $ 6,325.00 $1,165.00 5.00 to 10.00 ac. $200.00 per year 12,650.00 2,330.00 As further information, for areas less than one acre we propose a one-time lump sum payment of $300.00 and for areas greater than 10 acres we propose individual negotiations based on present-day land values in order to establish a fair rental rate and still maintain rental continuity. In line with the above, rental for the 1.48 acres occupied by the highway, for a further 25-year term will be $100.00 or $1,165.00 for the entire term, payable in advance. Upon receipt of your favorable consideration of this proposal, I will recommend to our Management that Union Pacific enter into a 25-year highway lease agreement with Weld County on the basis described above. Very truly yours, Hello
