without its fault or negligence, provided that notice of such delay (including the anticipated
duration of the delay) shall be given by the affected party to the other party within five (5)
business days after discovery of the cause of such delay. During any such period of delay or

bond, all at Professional's sole cost and expense. Professional shall indemnify and hold harmless

becomes insolvent, files, or has filed against it, a petition in bankruptcy, for receivership or other
insolvency proceeding, makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or, if Professional
is a partnership or corporation, dissolves, each such event constituting an event of default

ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITING CONDITIONS
Appraisals and other analyses are performed, and written reports are prepared by, or under the supervision of members or
candidates of the Appraisal Institute in accordance with the Institute's Standards of Professional Practice and Code of
Professional Ethics.
No opinion is rendered as to property title, which is assumed to be good and marketable. Unless otherwise stated, no
consideration is given to liens or encumbrances against the property. Sketches, maps, photos, or other graphic aids
included in appraisal reports are intended to assist the reader in ready identification and visualization of the property, and are
not intended for technical purposes.
Appraisal and analysis reports may contain prospective financial information, estimates or opinions to represent the
appraiser°s view of reasonable expectations at a particular point in time, but such information, estimates or opinions are not
offered as predictions or as assurances that a particular level of income or profit will be achieved, that events will occur, or
that a particular price will be offered or accepted. Actual results achieved during the period covered by our Prospective
Financial Analysis will vary from those described in our report, and the variations may be material.
It is assumed that legal, engineering, or other professional advice, as may be required, has been or will be obtained from
professional sources and that the appraisal report will not be used for guidance in legal or technical matters such as, but not
limited to, the existence of encroachments, easements or other discrepancies affecting the legal description of the property.
It is assumed that there are no concealed or dubious conditions of the subsoil or subsurface waters including water table
and flood plain, unless otherwise noted. We further assume there are no regulations of any government entity to control or
restrict the use of the property unless specifically referred to in the report.
In the absence of competent technical advice to the contrary, it is assumed that the property being appraised is not
adversely affected by concealed or unapparent hazards such as, but not limited to asbestos, hazardous or contaminated
substances, toxic waste or radioactivity, unless otherwise noted.
The report, the conclusions reached and prospective financial analyses included herein, are intended for the information of
the person or persons to who they are addressed, solely for the purposes stated therein, and should not be relied upon for
any other purpose. Neither our report, nor its contents, nor any reference to the appraiser, may be included or quoted in any
offering circular or registration statement, prospectus, sales brochure, other appraisal, or other agreement or document
without our prior written permission. Permission will be granted only upon meeting certain conditions.
Information furnished by others is presumed to be reliable, and where so specified in the report, has been verified; but no
responsibility, whether legal or otherwise, is assumed for its accuracy, and it cannot be guaranteed as being certain. No
single item of information was completely relied upon to the exclusion of other information.
Appraisal and consulting assignments are accepted with the understanding that there is no obligation to furnish services
after completion of the original assignment. If the need for subsequent services related to an appraisal assignment (e.g.,
testimony, updates, conferences, reprint or copy services), is contemplated, special arrangements acceptable to the
appraiser(s) must be made in advance.
It is assumed that the property will not operate in violation of any applicable government regulations, codes, ordinances or
statutes.
No significant change is assumed in the supply and demand patterns indicated in the report. The appraisal assumes market
conditions as observed as of the current date of our market research stated in the letter of transmittal. These market
conditions are believed to be correct; however, the appraiser(s) assumes no liability should market conditions materially
change because of unusual or unforseen circumstances.
The valuation (if applicable) and/or other conclusions apply only to the property described and for the purpose so stated and
should not be used for any other purpose. Any allocation of total price between land and the improvements as shown is

invalidated if used separately or in conjunction with any other report.
Neither the report nor any portions thereof (especially any conclusions as to value, the identity of the appraiser(s) or any
reference to the Appraisal Institute shall be disseminated to the public through public relations media, news media, sales
media or any other public means of communication with the prior wr'~ten consent and approval of the appraiser(s).
The date of the valuation to which the value estimate and/or other conclusions apply is set forth in the letter of transmittal
and with the body of the report. The value, if estimated. is based on the purchasing power of the United States dollar as of
that date.
It should be specifically noted by any prospective mortgagee that the appraisal assumes that the property will be
competently managed, leased, and maintained at least in keeping with the conditions observed on the effective date of
appraisal by financially sound owners over the expected period of ownership. We will neither evaluate management°s or
owner's effectiveness, nor be responsible for future marketing efforts and other management or ownership actions upon
which actual results will depend.
The appraiser(s) does not, as part of this valuation, perform an audit, review or examination (as defined by the AICPA) of
any of the historical or prospective financial information used, and therefore does not express any opinion with regard to
same.
It is assumed that availability of utilities will be continual throughout the property's economic life.
All improvements are assumed provided in accordance with the plans, specifications, applicable codes, and ordinances or
regulations. All mechanical equipment is assumed to be operational and in satisfactory condition currently, or upon
completion of constructions. Neither the report nor the writer guarantees or warrants any mechanical or physical aspect of
the property or its conformance to design specifications and/or applicable code, whether contemplated or completed.
The American with Disabilities Act ("ADA") became effective January 26, 1992. I have not made a specific compliance
survey and analysis of this property to determine whether or not it is in conformity with the various detailed requirements of
the ADA. It is possible that a compliance survey of the property together with a detailed analysis of the requirements of the
ADA, could reveal that the property is not in compliance with one or more of the requirements of the Act. If so, this fact
could have a negative effect upon the value of the property. Since I have no direct evidence relating to this issue, I did not
consider possible non-compliance with the requirements of ADA in estimating the value of the property.

DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE
The operative definition~ of "market value" is as follows:
The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all
conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and
assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a
sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
1. buyer and seller are typically motivated;
both parties are well informed or well advised and each acting in what they consider their best
interests;
3. a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; and,
payment is made in terms of cash in United States dollars or in terms of financial
arrangements comparable thereto; and,
the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or
creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.
Adjustments to the comparables must be made for special or creative financing or sales concessions. No adjustments are
necessary for those costs that are normally paid by sellers as a result of tradition or law in a market area; these costs are
readily identifiable since the seller pays these costs in virtually all sales transactions. Special or creative financing
adjustments can be made to the comparable property by comparisons to financing terms offered by a third party institution
lender that is not already involved in the property or transactions. Any adjustment should not be calculated on a mechanical
dollar for dollar cost of the financing or concession, but the dollar amount of any adjustment should approximate the
market's reaction to the financing or concessions based on the appraiser's judgement.
