If Purchaser elects to proceed with the Closing as to any Tract so damaged, then the Closing shall proceed without any reduction in the Purchase Price applicable to such Tract and subject to the other provisions hereof, but Purchaser shall be entitled to any and all insurance proceeds previously paid or payable to Seller as a result of such damage (plus the amount of any deductible maintained by Seller with respect to such policy) (which Purchaser may elect to receive as a credit against the Sales&Purchase Agreement for 1.644 Acres on Pleasure Island-4/29/2026 2:19 PM-DRAFT 11 • .�..� Purchase Price) and, to the extent the same may be necessary or appropriate, Seller shall assign to Purchaser at Closing all of Seller's rights to such proceeds. (b) If, prior to Closing, the Property is destroyed or damaged, but not to a material extent, then Seller shall notify Purchaser of such damage within three (3) business days thereof, and (if so requested by Purchaser) shall promptly repair and replace the Property so destroyed or damaged to the same condition that existed prior to such casualty (and shall receive and keep all insurance proceeds payable to Seller as a result of such damages). If Purchaser notifies Seller not to repair and replace any immaterial damage or destruction pursuant to the right granted in the immediately preceding sentence, then the Closing shall proceed without any reduction in the Purchase Price and subject to the other provisions hereof, but Purchaser shall be entitled to any and all insurance proceeds payable to Seller as a result of such damages and destruction(plus the amount of any deductible maintained by Seller with respect to such policy) as set forth in subsection (a) above (which Purchaser may elect to receive as a credit against the Purchase Price).

If Purchaser elects to proceed with the Closing as to any Tract affected by such Taking, there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price applicable to such Tract, but Purchaser shall be entitled to any and all amounts payable as a result of such Taking, including any condemnation award or amounts paid in lieu of such award (which Purchaser may elect to receive as a credit against the Purchase Price), and, to the extent the same may be necessary or appropriate, Seller shall assign to Purchaser at Closing all of Seller's rights to such proceeds. (d) The provisions of this Section shall control over, and be effective notwithstanding, the provisions of the Uniform Vendor and Purchaser Risk Act as set forth in Section 5.007 of the Texas Property Code.

COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC. 2 APPRAISAL REPORT CLIENT: Mr. George Davis, MA, CPM Director of Pleasure Island City of Port Arthur 520 Pleasure Pier Boulevard Port Arthur, TX 77640 APPRAISER: Mr. W. Burnell Cook, MAI, SRA Cook & Associates, Inc. 2640 McFaddin Beaumont, Texas 77702 SUBJECT: 600 Pleasure Pier Boulevard, Port Arthur, Jefferson County, Texas INTENDED USE OF REPORT: For the sole purpose of assisting the client in evaluating the subject property for potential sale. This report is intended for use by Mr. George Davis and the City of Port Arthur. Other uses or users are not intended by the appraiser. SCOPE OF WORK AND REPORTING PROCESS: This is an Appraisal Report which is intended to comply with the reporting requirements set forth under Rule 2 of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice for an Appraisal Report. As such, it presents relevant discussions of the data reasoning and analysis that were used in the appraisal process to develop the appraiser's opinion of value. Supporting documentation concerning the data, reasoning and analysis is retained in the appraiser's file. The depth of discussion contained in this report is specific to the needs of the client and for the intended use stated above. The appraiser is not responsible for unauthorized use of this report. As the subject is vacant land, the appraiser did not use the Cost and Income Approaches to value which are not considered necessary to develop a credible opinion of value. The appraiser believes the only applicable approach to value is the Sales Comparison Ap- proach. Subject property identification: Identification of the subject property was provided by the client in the form of a physical address, JCAD plat and aerial. Subject property observation and physical data collection: The appraiser visited the subject property on February 23, 2026. All photographs of the subject site were taken on this date. Data collection and research: The subject property data such as size, physical features, location, quality and zoning are considered and presented in this report. Market data, in- cluding comparable vacant land sales and supply and demand are among the items re- searched and analyzed. The data is used to estimate the highest and best use of the sub- ject property and its market value. COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC. 3 Extent of analysis: The documentation necessary to arrive at the opinion of value is considered in this appraisal report. The market data has been collected, confirmed and analyzed. Comparable sales were chosen for their similar highest and best uses as out- lined within the report. All sales were analyzed and compared to the subject property based on their similarities and dissimilarities. The applicable approaches were considered and reconciled in developing a final opinion of market value. Disclosures: Texas is a non-disclosure state in regards to details of sales transactions. Thus, our knowledge of sales data is not all-inclusive. Our data sources include Beau- mont, Mid-County and Orange County Multiple Listing Service, LoopNet, local real estate brokers, as well as grantees, grantors, lessees and lessors. Terminology and definitions utilized are in accordance with banking regulations and the Dictionary of Real Estate Ap- praisal, Seventh Edition, (copyright 2022) by the Appraisal Institute, or most recent revi- sion. This appraisal is intended to comply with the requirements of the Appraisal Institute as well as the current Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. COMPETENCY STATEMENT: Both USPAP and FIRREA minimum appraisal standards require that an appraiser have the knowledge and experience to complete an assignment competently. Additionally, FIRREA requires a competency statement. W. Burnell Cook, MAI, SRA has 41 years of commercial property appraisal experience. The appraiser has appraised properties similar to the subject in the Southeast Texas marketing area. This practical experience coupled with classroom training through the Appraisal Institute and other organizations complies with the Competency requirements of USPAP. The appraiser is a state certified general real estate appraiser. A complete qualifications statement and a copy of the certification for the appraiser is included in the Addenda. ENVIRONMENTAL DISCLAIMER: The appraiser is not an expert in determining the presence or absence of hazardous substances, defined as all hazardous or toxic materi- als, waste, pollutants or contaminants, including but not limited to asbestos, PCB, UFFI, or other raw materials or chemicals used in construction or otherwise present on the proper- ty. The appraiser assumes no responsibility for studies or analyses which would be re- quired to conclude the presence or absences of such substances or loss as a result of the presence of such substances. The client is urged to retain an expert in this field, if desired. The personal surface site inspection by the appraiser did not indicate the presence of hazardous materials or contaminants. Therefore, the value opinion herein is based on the assumption that the subject conforms to applicable environmental regulations and is subject to that condition. (See Extraordi- nary Assumptions and Hypothetical Conditions on page 2.) PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL: To estimate market value as referenced in Section 12, C.F.R. Part 34. Market Value as reported herein, is defined as: 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. COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC. 4 Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the pass- ing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: 1. buyer and seller are typically motivated; 2. both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what they con- sider their own best interests; 3. a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; 4. payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial ar- rangements comparable thereto; and 5. the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffect- ed by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale. INTEREST VALUED: Fee Simple Interest, as defined in Real Estate Terminology, is: An absolute fee; a fee without limitations to any particular class of heirs or restrictions, but subject to the limitations of eminent domain, escheat, police power, and taxation. An in- heritable estate. SALES HISTORY: The subject property is currently owned by the City of Port Arthur. An investor has expressed an interest to purchase the property, however no price or terms have been determined. Thus, it has not changed ownership in an open market transaction within the past three years. ESTIMATED EXPOSURE TIME: The exposure time estimate provided precedes the ef- fective date of this report. In estimating an exposure time for the subject property the ap- praiser has considered some or all of the following: • Current supply and demand factors • Current cost information • Analysis of historical sales information • Analysis of future income expectancy In the case of the subject property, an exposure time of 12 to 24 months is thought rea- sonable. EFFECTIVE DATE OF VALUE: February 23, 2026 DATE OF INSPECTION: February 23, 2026 PROPERTY TAXES: Assessed value is $81,812. It is currently tax exempt. (See proper- ty account in the Addenda) DESCRIPTION OF REAL ESTATE APPRAISED: LEGAL DESCRIPTION: The subject property is located at 600 Pleasure Pier Boulevard on Pleasure Island. It is legally described as Pleasure Island Tract 16. COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC. 5 AREA ANALYSIS: The subject area is known as the "Sabine-Neches Industrial area" or the "Golden Triangle" and is comprised of Hardin, Jefferson, Orange and Newton Coun- ties in Southeast Texas. The three major cities are Beaumont, Port Arthur and Orange. The cities are virtually contiguous as result of continuous development along their con- necting highways. Beaumont, the largest city and the county seat of Jefferson County, has a population of 115,282 per the 2020 census, down 2.6% from 118,296 in 2010. The pop- ulation of the four county area is 412,870 per the 2020 census, up 9,676 or 2.4% since 2010. Area city services, public utilities, schools and health facilities are considered to be good. The area climate is favorable with warm summers and mild winters. Area transportation resources include railroads, some deep water ports located in Port Ar- thur, Beaumont and Orange, four airports as well as good highway access. Jefferson County Airport, located adjacent to and west of Nederland, provides daily connector flights to Dallas. Medical facilities, located in Beaumont, Port Arthur, Groves, Nederland and Or- ange include eight major hospitals as well as a variety of facilities providing specialized and emergency care services. Major industries include shipping, petroleum and agriculture. In the early 1990's major federal, state and local prison complexes between Beaumont and Port Arthur in Mid- County were established. The area economy is primarily based on petrochemical refining and production related industries and has been since the Spindletop Oil discovery in 1901. A number of major petrochemical plants are located in this portion of the upper Texas Gulf Coast, typically along the Neches River and Sabine River in south Jefferson County and south Orange County. Many individuals from the three county area find employment in these area petrochemical complexes. Major plants located in the area include Motiva, Valero, DuPont, Total, Huntsman, Chevron, Mobil-Exxon and Goodyear. Economic conditions have been favorable in recent years, as area industrial plants have continued to expand. However, unemployment for the Beaumont/Port Arthur MSA is at 5.2% (December, 2025), up from 5.1% one year ago. Unemployment for the State of Tex- as is 4.3% for December, 2025, up from 4.2% in December 2024, and up from 4.2% a month ago. Local MSA employment is 177,400, up .8% since December, 2024 and down .4% from last month. The economic forecast for the Golden Triangle area, including Beaumont, Port Arthur and Orange, remains relatively positive as renovations, additions and upgrades to existing oil, gas and petroleum facilities, primarily in mid and south Jefferson County continue. The na- tional economic downturn in late 2008 and 2009 and decline in oil prices caused some concern, with some projects being delayed, cancelled or put on hold. However, the Total, Motiva and the Valero expansions remained on track and are now complete. The five year, 10 billion dollar Motiva expansion was the largest single expansion in the United States in four decades. Cheniere Energy is building a 13-15.5 billion dollar LNG export facility adjacent to their new Sabine Pass gas import terminal in Cameron Parish, LA (just east of Sabine Pass, TX), now in operation. The expansion is projected to be partially operational in 2026 and complete in 2031. COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC. 6 Golden Pass Products has also announced authorization from the U.S. Department of Energy to export LNG, and began construction (March, 2019) of a 10 billion expansion for such purpose, originally projected to be complete in 2024, but recently delayed. Final ap- proval for investment in a $13 billion LNG facility in Sabine Pass was announced by Sem- pra on March 20, 2023, with construction beginning shortly thereafter. Completion by 2027 is projected for Train 1. The Jefferson Energy Terminal, owned by JCP Energy Partners in Orange County on the Neches River across from the Port of Beaumont, was recently completed at a cost of ± $50 million. The state of the art facility is now operating and shipping its first shipments of ethanol internationally. The Gulf Coast Project section of the controversial Keystone Pipeline project has recently been completed extending 487 miles from Cushing, OK to Nederland Texas. The pipeline project is planned to ultimately extend from Canada transporting crude oil to Texas Gulf Coast refineries. However, the project has recently encountered political/environmental obstacles. The ultimate outcome is unknown. In November, 2013, Natgasoline LLC, a subsidiary of Orascom Construction Industries (OCI) announced a 1.9 billion dollar methanol plant project to be located on 514 acres on SH 347 just south of Beaumont, which broke ground in March, 2014. The plant, completed in 2018, is one of the nation's largest methanol plants. Ground breaking for a $1 billion expansion to build a "blue" ammonia plant was December 7, 2022. Completion is antici- pated for 2025 with 1000 construction jobs and 100 permanent jobs anticipated. Additional expansion for a renewable fuels facility and a fertilizer plant is planned. Exxon-Mobil is nearing completion of a $1.2 billion expansion of their plant on US 90, just west of Beaumont. Construction of a 1.7 billion dollar ethylene production unit at the Total plant site in Port Arthur is also nearly complete. A 1.4 billion dollar project to deepen and widen the Neches River portion of the Sabine Neches Ship Channel, as part of the Water Resources Reform and Development Act of 2013, was signed into law by President Obama. Initial funding of $18 million for fiscal year 2019 was reported in the Beaumont Enterprise on November 26, 2018. Initial phases of construction began in late 2019 with completion projected to be in seven years (2026). $169.2 million in capital improvement is planned by the Port of Beaumont, to be funded in part by $85 million in bonds, with voter approval obtained November 7, 2017. The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, in their 2021 Work Plan, allocated $68.5 million for the Sabine- Neches project underway. This project, in conjunction with completion of the Panama Ca- nal expansion, completed in 2016, is expected to have a significant positive economic im- pact on Texas Gulf Coast ports and the Beaumont-Port Arthur MSA in general. COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC. In March, 2023, the 1,215 megawatt Orange County Advanced Power Station near Bridge City was approved by the Public Utility Commission. Entergy Texas, Inc. estimates the plant construction, now underway to be competed in 2026, potentially powering 230,000 homes. The Power Station is projected to cost $1.2 billion and create 7,000 construction jobs along with 27 permanent jobs. Currently, land has been acquired and construction begun for a new Chevron- Phillips/Qatar Energy facility (Golden Triangle Polymers) near Texas 87 and FM 1006 in Orange; announced on November 16, 2022, to be an $8.58 billion dollar project with 4,500 construction jobs and 500 full time jobs. A plant expansion currently underway at the Exx- on-Mobil Beaumont refinery will employ 1,850 in construction jobs, with 40 to 60 perma- nent jobs, and increase crude refining capacity by two thirds, making it one of the nation's largest refineries. In September, 2025, Governor Abbott announced a $1.7 billion bio re- finery to be built by USA BioEnergy in Bon Wier, Newton County. The Golden Triangle area, as does the Gulf Coast in general, experiences occasional hur- ricanes and tropical storms. Tropical Storm Harvey struck the area on August 30, 2017, with record rainfall and widespread flooding. Tropical Storm Imelda struck the area on September 19, 2019, also with widespread flooding and road closures, but to a lesser de- gree than experienced during Tropical Storm Harvey. Most flooding occurred in the west- erly portion of Jefferson County and easterly portion of Chambers County. A fairly rapid recovery was completed with minimal long term adverse effect. Most recently, the area in general suffered relatively minor damage from Hurricane Laura which struck the Camer- on/Lake Charles, Louisiana area, just to the east, on August 27, 2020. Damage in the Or- ange area was more extensive, being closer in proximity to landfall. Damage in the Lake Charles area was severe. Tropical Storm Beta, which struck the area on September 22, 2020, caused minimal damage. Hurricane Delta, which struck Lake Charles on October 9, 2020, caused moderate damage in the Beaumont, Port Arthur and Orange area. In response to the threat of hurricane damage, the US Corps of Engineers is constructing a coastal storm barrier system known as the Sabine to Galveston or Texas Coastal Spine Project. The project will extend 27 miles through Orange County coastal area, as well as coastal area of Jefferson County and the Bolivar Peninsula to Galveston. The project ini- tially began in Orange County in 2020 and is expected to be complete in 2031. The entire project is projected to take 20 years or more to complete with design and environmental studies for some areas not yet complete. Prices paid for existing real estate in general are increasing. Brokers are optimistic with increases in market activity related to continued petrochemical expansion anticipated over the next twelve months. Currently smaller office/shop/warehouse space is in short supply with continued new construction anticipated. An area map is included in the Addenda. COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC. 8 NEIGHBORHOOD ANALYSIS: The objective of a Neighborhood Analysis is to describe and analyze observable and/or quantifiable data that indicates discernible patterns of ur- ban growth, structure and changes that detract from or enhance property values. A neighborhood is a portion of a larger community in which there is a homogeneous grouping of inhabitants, buildings or business enterprises. Neighborhood boundaries may consist of well-defined natural or man-made barriers, or they may be, more or less, well- defined by a distinct change in land values or in the character of the inhabitants. The subject is located on Pleasure Island, a man made body of land on the east side of the Neches River/Sabine Neches Ship Channel and the west side of Sabine Lake, across the ship channel from downtown Port Arthur. The US Corps of Engineers created Pleas- ure Island from deposits dredged while constructing the Port Arthur Canal in 1899 and the Sabine Neches Intracoastal Waterway, completed in 1908. The island is accessible from Port Arthur via SH 82 and the Martin Luther King Memorial Bridge over the ship channel. SH 82 extends south the length of the island to Sabine Lake and the Sabine Causeway crossing to Louisiana. The subject neighborhood is considered to be that mostly developed area north of the MLK Memorial Bridge, generally along or just off the T. B. Ellison Parkway, a two-lane as- phalt roadway which serves as the primary access artery through the area. A map showing the neighborhood location is included in the Addenda. Development in the neighborhood is mixed including the Pleasure Island Marina, RV Parks, Pleasure Island Commission of- fices, a residential condo development and a single family subdivision, several industrial facilities, secondary commercial uses and various parks. Much of the area remains unde- veloped. Some areas are protected by levee. Zoning is typically MU, Mixed Use. All public utilities are available. Elevation is typically 5 to 15 feet above mean sea level. Much of the area falls in FEMA designated flood Zones B or C, outside the 100 year flood plains. However, a substantial portion falls in Zone A, within the 100 year flood plain. In recent years new development has been somewhat limited. However some new single family homes, typically elevated beach house design, have been built on the southerly portion of the island fronting Sabine Lake. The neighborhood location is conveniently ac- cessible to and from pending new development in downtown Port Arthur, as well as ex- panding industrial development in proximity to the Port of Port Arthur and petrochemical plant expansions just south of Port Arthur. Increased new development is anticipated. A Neighborhood Map is included in the Addenda. COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC. 9 PROPERTY DESCRIPTION: Location/ Access: The subject is located just off the south end of Pleasure Pier Boule- vard, with access from Pleasure Pier Boulevard via existing concrete drive assumed. Tract Size: 1.6452 acres of which 1.39 acres is considered usable. (Net of boardwalk and submerged area, see plat in the addenda.) Configuration: Nearly rectangular Topography/ Elevation: The subject tract is cleared and fairly level. Elevation is approximately 0 to 5 feet above mean sea level. Flood Zone: Zone B, area within the 500 year flood plain but outside the 100 year floodplain, as determined by FEMA. Zoning: MU, Mixed Use Utilities: All public utilities are available Existing Improvements: Concrete paving (± 30,000 SF), boardwalk along Sabine Lake water- front (south and east property lines), to be retained by the City of Port Arthur. Surrounding Uses: Adjacent to the west is a vacant tract. Sabine Lake is to the south and east. Adjacent to the north is a multi-unit residential structure. Easements! Encumbrances: Standard utility easements were noted. A small utility equipment site is centrally located on the site. The characteristics of the subject tract generally conform to those of surrounding proper- ties and those discussed in the Neighborhood Analysis are considered applicable. The subject is of sufficient size and utility for a variety of commercial uses, enhanced by a wa- ter view location. The subject is currently vacant. Presented in the Addenda are an Aerial Photo/Plat Map, Topographical Map, and Flood Plain Map. COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC. 10 HIGHEST AND BEST USE: Highest and Best Use "As Vacant": The subject enjoys adequate access and a water view location. The subject is of sufficient size and adequate utility for a variety of commercial uses. Commercial development is allowable in mixed use zoning, and consistent with surround- ing uses; however, development may require city approval. Commercial demand is thought sufficient to justify development costs. Consequently, the Highest and Best Use of the subject, as vacant, would be Commercial. COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC. 11 SUMMARY OF THE SALES COMPARISON ANALYSIS: This is an appraisal technique in which the Market Value estimate is based on prices paid in actual market transactions. The approach involves gathering data of sales of comparable properties and analyzing the nature and condition of each sale, comparing with the subject property, making logical ad- justments for characteristics dissimilar to the subject property. The direct sales compari- son approach is based upon the principle of substitution and is a good indicator of value when sales of highly similar properties are available. The principle of substitution is de- fined in The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, p. 296 as "The appraisal principle that states that when several similar or commensurate commodities, goods or services are available, the one with the lowest price will attract the greatest demand and widest distri- bution." The reliability of this approach is dependent upon the following factors: • The degree of similarity of the comparable property to the property being appraised as to location, size, and utility. • The time of the sale. • The verification of the market data. • The absence of unusual conditions affecting the sales price. The appraiser has made a diligent search of available sources in an attempt to obtain data on the sales of similar vacant properties. Also contacted were several area real estate brokers. The Sales Comparison Approach is applied in the study of prices paid for compa- rable tract to indicate the price at which the subject tract should sell after adjustments are applied for the factors that tend to affect price, i.e., sale date, tract size, locational quality, etc. The "market" for similar properties has been active in recent years, thereby providing sales data from which a comparative analysis can be made for a value indication. Presented on the following pages is the data on the sales which were deemed most com- parable and provided the most reliable indicators of value as well as a map showing the location of each sale in relation to the subject, followed by a Sales Summary. The square foot unit has been used in the analysis as the market tends to quote commer- cial vacant land prices in this unit. The Market Adjustment Chart, showing the pertinent data on each sale and the adjustments follows the Sales Summary. After the adjustment chart is a brief explanation of the adjustments and the concluded value estimate for the subject tract. The subject site is compared and analyzed based on useable site area, net of the boardwalk to be retained by the City of Port Arthur, as well as submerged area in- cluded in the JCAD property plat area and metes and bounds herein (see Addenda).

Time: All sales are fairly current transactions; therefore, no market condition ad- justments were necessary. COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC. 26 Size: Typically smaller tracts generate relatively higher unit sales prices. Sale #1, #2, #4, and #6 are smaller than the subject and therefore warrant a reflective negative adjustment for this factor. Sale #3, somewhat larger, is positively adjusted. Adjustments applied range from -25% to +10%, generally based on 10% to 15% per double in size. Location: Sales #2, #3, #5, and #6 are thought somewhat superior to the subject with regard to access/exposure and/or proximity to development and are nega- tively adjusted 10% to 25%. L1 and Sale #4 are thought overall inferior. and positively adjusted 15%. Utility: The subject includes paved parking but is an interior tract with assumed easement access. L1 and Sales #3, #4, and #6 are overall superior and negatively adjusted 15%. Sales #2 and #5 are inferior and positively adjusted 5%. All sales are located in the subject's general market area and are considered to provide reliable indicators of value for the subject site. After adjustments, the closed sales indicat- ed a value range from $.97/SF to $3.73/SF. However, Sale #4 is well below the range of the other sales and is omitted from further consideration. The mean value indicated for the subject tract is $3.10/SF. The median value is $2.92/SF. Sale #2, the most recent closed sale, indicates a unit value of $2.94/SF. L1, a current listing, is considered to set the upper limit of the potential value range at $3.19/SF. Based on this analysis, a unit value of $3.00/SF is considered reasonable and when ap- plied to the subject tract indicates the following: 60,548 SF @ $3.00/SF = $181,644 Rounded to: $182,000 II RECONCILIATION OF FINAL VALUE ESTIMATE: The sales selected for analysis are 1 in the subject marketing area and have a reliable degree of comparability to the subject property. The adjustments for variances between the comparable properties and the sub- ject property are thought consistent with the opinions and attitudes of prudent purchasers. As previously discussed, there were no improvements which precludes the use of the Cost Approach and there was no income stream to be evaluated which precludes the use of the Income Approach. In view of these facts, primary consideration is given to the Sales Com- parison Approach in developing an opinion of the Market Value of the subject property. CONCLUDED PROPERTY VALUE: Considering all of the data presented in the forego- ing analyses, it is the appraiser's opinion that, as of the date of inspection, the Market Val- ue of the subject property is: ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY - TWO THOUSAND ($182,000) DOLLARS COOK & ASSOCIATES, INC.

No responsibility is assumed in connection with a sur- vey or for encroachments or overlapping or other discrepancies that might be revealed thereby. Any sketches included in the report are only for the purpose of aiding the reader in visualizing the property and are not necessarily a result of a survey. No responsibility is assumed for an opinion of legal nature, such as to ownership of the property or condition of title. Unless otherwise stated,the subject property appraised is the surface estate only, with no consideration of mineral interests. The appraiser assumes the title to the property to be marketable and unrestricted;that, un- less stated to the contrary, the property is appraised as an unencumbered fee which is not used in violation of acceptable ordinances, statutes or other governmental regulations. Unapparent Conditions: The appraiser assumes that there are no hidden or unapparent conditions of the property, subsoil or structures which would render it more or less valuable than otherwise compara- ble property. The appraiser is not an expert in determining the presence or absence of hazardous substance, defined as all hazardous or toxic materials,waste, pollutants or con- taminants (including, but not limited to, asbestos, PCB, UFFI, or other raw materials or chemicals) used in construction or otherwise present on the property. The appraiser assumes no responsibility for the studies or analysis which would be re- quired to conclude the presence or absence of such substances or for loss as a result of the presence of such substances. The client is urged to retain an expert in this field, if de- sired. The value estimate is based on the assumption that the subject property is not so affected. The site being appraised appears firm unless otherwise noted, however, soils common to the area have a high shrink-swell potential and may exert unusual pressure on foundations. The appraiser does not warrant against this condition or the occurrence of problems arising therefrom. Information and Data: Information, estimates and opinions furnished to the appraiser and contained in the report, were obtained from sources considered reliable and believed to be true and correct. How- ever, no responsibility for accuracy of such items furnished the appraiser can be assumed by the appraiser. All mortgages, liens, encumbrances and servitudes have been disregarded unless so specified within the appraisal report. The subject property is appraised as though under responsible owner- ship and competent management. Zoning and Licenses: It is assumed that all applicable zoning and use regulations and restrictions have been complied with, unless a nonconforming use has been stated,defined and considered in the valuation. It is assumed that the subject property complies with all applicable federal, state and local environmental regulations and laws unless noncompliance is stated, defined and consid- ered in the valuation. It is assumed that the information relating to the location of or existence of public utilities that has been obtained through a verbal inquiry from the appropriate utility authority,or has been ascertained from visual evidence is correct. No warranty has been made regarding the exact location or capacities of public utility systems. It is assumed that all licenses, consents or other legislative or administrative authority from local, state or national governmental or private entity or organization have been,or can be, obtained or renewed for any use on which the value estimate contained in the valuation re- port is based. The appraiser will not be required to give testimony or appear in court due to preparing the appraisal with reference to the subject property in question, unless prior arrangements have been made. Possession of the report does not carry with it the right of publication. Out-of-context quot- ing from or partial reprinting of this appraisal report is not authorized. Further, neither all nor any part of this appraisal report shall be disseminated to the general public by the use of media for public communication, nor used for any purpose by any but the intended user, without the prior written consent of the appraiser signing this appraisal report. This appraisal is to be used only in its entirety and no part is to be used without the whole report. All conclusions and opinions concerning the analysis are set forth in the report were prepared by the appraiser(s)whose signature(s)appear on the appraisal report. No change of any item in the report shall be made by anyone other than the appraiser and/or owner of the firm. The appraiser and firm shall have no responsibility if any such unauthor- ized change is made. Disclosure of the contents of this report is governed by the By-Laws and Regulations of the Appraisal Institute. Neither all nor any part of the contents of this report (especially any conclusions as to value, the identity of the appraisers or the firm with which they are con- nected,or any reference to the Appraisal Institute or to the appraisal designations)shall be disseminated to the public through advertising media, public relations media, news media, sales media or any other public means of communication without the prior written consent and approval of the author. The distribution of the total valuation in this report, between land and improvements, is ap- plicable only as a part of the whole property. The land value, or the separate value of the improvements, must not be used in conjunction with any other appraisal or estimate and is invalid if so used. An appraisal related to an estate in land that is less than the whole fee simple estate ap- plies only to the fractional interest involved. The value of this fractional interest plus the value of all other fractional interests may or may not equal the value of the entire fee sim- ple estate considered as a whole. The appraisal is subject to any proposed improvements or additions being completed as set forth in the plans, specifications, and representations referred to in the report, and all work being performed in a good and workmanlike manner. The appraisal is further subject to the proposed improvements or additions being constructed in accordance with the regu- lations of the local, county and state authorities. The plans, specifications and representa- tions referred to are an integral part of the appraisal report when new construction or new additions, renovations, refurbishing or remodeling applies. If this appraisal is used for mortgage loan purposes, the appraiser invites attention to the fact that (1)the equity cash requirements of the sponsor have not been analyzed, (2) the loan ratio has not been suggested, and (3) the amortization method and term have not been suggested. The function of this report is not for use in conjunction with a syndication of real property. This report cannot be used for said purposes and,therefore, any use of this report relating to syndication activities is strictly prohibited and unauthorized. If such an unauthorized use of this report takes place, it is understood and agreed that the appraiser has no liability to the client and/or third parties. The appraiser reserves the right to alter the opinion of value on the basis of any infor- mation withheld or not discovered in the normal course of a diligent investigation. There is no accountability, obligation or liability to any third party. The appraiser assumes no responsibility for any costs incurred to discover or correct any deficiencies present in the property. The Americans with Disabilities Act("ADA") became effective January 26, 1992. The ap- praiser has not made a specific compliance survey and analysis of this property to deter- mine 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 the ap- praiser has no direct evidence relating to this issue,the appraiser did not consider possible noncompliance with the requirements of ADA in estimating the value of the property. Acceptance of and/or use of this appraisal report constitutes acceptance of the foregoing General Underlying Assumptions and General Limiting Conditions. The appraiser's duties, pursuant to the employment to make the appraisal, are complete upon delivery and ac- ceptance of the appraisal report. However, any corrections or errors should be called to the attention of the appraisers within 60 days of the delivery of the report. QUALIFICATIONS OF W.
