The scope of work decision includes the research and analyses necessary to develop credible assignment results, given the intended use of the appraisal. Sufficient information includes disclosure of research and analyses performed and might also include disclosure of research and analyses not performed. To determine the appropriate scope of work for the assignment, the intended use of the appraisal, the needs of the user, the complexity of the property, and other pertinent factors were considered. The concluded scope of work is described below. Research and Analysis The type and extent of the research and analysis conducted are detailed in individual sections of the report. The steps taken to verify comparable data are disclosed in the addenda of this report. Although effort has been made to confirm the arms-length nature of each sale with a party to the transaction, it is sometimes necessary to rely on secondary verification from sources deemed reliable.

These are the cost approach, the sales comparison approach, and the income capitalization approach. Use of the approaches in this assignment is summarized as follows: Approaches to Value Approach Applicability to Subject Use in Assignment Cost Approach Not Applicable Not Utilized Sales Comparison Approach Applicable Utilized Income Capitalization Approach Not Applicable Not Utilized In developing an opinion of value for the subject, only the sales comparison approach is used.

Trends in demand for development in a particular market are described by the Market Area Life Cycle, while market and economic trends are described by the Real Estate Cycle. A Market Area Life Cycle typically evolves through four stages:3 x Growth – a period during which the market area gains public favor and acceptance x Stability – a period of equilibrium without marked gains or losses x Decline – a period of diminishing demand x Revitalization – a period of renewal, redevelopment, modernization, and increasing demand The subject’s market area is in the growth stage of the Market Area Life Cycle. The Real Estate Cycle also impacts a neighborhood. The stages of the Real Estate Cycle include: x Expansion – Sustained growth in demand, increasing construction x Hypersupply – Positive but falling demand, increasing vacancy x Recession – Falling demand, increasing vacancy 3 Appraisal Institute, The Appraisal of Real Estate, 15th ed. (Chicago: Appraisal Institute, 2020) Surrounding Area Analysis 19 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 x Recovery – Increasing demand, decreasing vacancy These stages are illustrated below, along with a summary of common characteristics of each stage of the Real Estate Cycle.

Land Description and Analysis 24 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Floodplain The subject property is partially within the 100-year floodplain and regulatory floodway. Approximately 14% of the total area is within the floodway with around 9% in Flood Zone AE. Areas within the floodplain can hold significant development challenges including significant earthwork and permitting. The current owner utilizes the flood area as retention for the existing facility. Easements, Encroachments and Restrictions A current title report was not provided for review. According to the surveys provided by the client, the eastern portion of the tract is encumbered with a public drainage easement (Document No. 2012- 30000). The easement area also appears to be partially within the floodway and floodplain. It is unlikely that any structures could be developed in this area. There is sufficient area on the property to support development and the drainage easement could be used as green space or retention (its current use). This valuation assumes no adverse impacts from unknown easements, encroachments, or restrictions, and further assumes that the subject has clear and marketable title. Conclusion of Site Analysis Overall, the physical characteristics and the availability of utilities result in a functional site, suitable for a variety of uses including those permitted by zoning. Uses permitted by zoning include a variety of industrial and commercial support uses. No other restrictions on development are apparent.

Real estate taxes in this state and this jurisdiction represent ad valorem taxes, meaning a tax applied in proportion to value. The real estate taxes for an individual property may be determined by dividing the assessed value for a property by $100, then multiplying the estimate by the composite rate. The composite rate is based on a consistent state tax rate throughout the state, in addition to one or more local taxing district rates. Real estate taxes and assessments for the current tax year are shown in the following table. Subject Tax Rates District Rate per $ City of Denton $0.595420 Denton County $0.185938 Krum ISD $1.195200 Total Tax Rate $1.976558 Real estate taxes and assessments for the current tax year are shown in the following table.

Process Before a property can be valued, an opinion of highest and best use must be developed for the subject site, both as though vacant, and as improved or proposed. By definition, the highest and best use must be: x Physically possible. x Legally permissible under the zoning regulations and other restrictions that apply to the site. x Financially feasible. x Maximally productive, i.e., capable of producing the highest value from among the permissible, possible, and financially feasible uses. As Though Vacant As Though Vacant First, the property is evaluated as though vacant, with no improvements. Physically Possible The site is 49.910 acres or 2,174,080 square feet of land located in the city of Denton within Denton County. The site is irregular in shape has rolling topography. The eastern portion of the property is located in the 100-year floodplain and regulatory floodway. The western portion of the tract is generally level and well-suited for development. The physical characteristics of the site do not appear to impose any unusual restrictions on development. Overall, the physical characteristics of the site and the availability of utilities result in functional utility suitable for a variety of uses. Legally Permissible The site is zoned LI, Light Industrial. Permitted uses include various industrial and commercial support uses. The eastern portion of the tract is encumbered with a large drainage easement; this area is currently used as retention. Given prevailing land use patterns in the area and considering the characteristics of the property, an industrial use is considered most likely. Financially Feasible Based on the accompanying analysis of the market, there is currently adequate demand for industrial use in the subject’s area. There are three industrial buildings that were recently constructed abutting the subject to the east. It appears a newly developed industrial use on the site would have a value commensurate with its cost. Therefore, industrial use is considered to be financially feasible. Highest and Best Use 35 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Maximally Productive There does not appear to be any reasonably probable use of the site that would generate a higher residual land value than industrial use. Accordingly, industrial use, developed to the normal market density level permitted by zoning, is the maximally productive use of the property. Conclusion Development of the site for industrial use is the only use which meets the four tests of highest and best use. Therefore, it is concluded to be the highest and best use of the property as though vacant. As Improved Only the land component of the subject property is included in this analysis. Therefore, a highest and best use of the property as improved is not warranted. Most Probable Buyer Considering the size and characteristics of the tract as though vacant, the likely buyer is a developer. Valuation Methodology 36 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Valuation Valuation Methodology Appraisers usually consider three approaches to estimating the market value of real property. These are the cost approach, sales comparison approach and the income capitalization approach. The cost approach assumes that the informed purchaser would pay no more than the cost of producing a substitute property with the same utility. This approach is particularly applicable when the improvements being appraised are relatively new and represent the highest and best use of the land or when the property has unique or specialized improvements for which there is little or no sales data from comparable properties. The sales comparison approach assumes that an informed purchaser would pay no more for a property than the cost of acquiring another existing property with the same utility. This approach is especially appropriate when an active market provides sufficient reliable data. The sales comparison approach is less reliable in an inactive market or when estimating the value of properties for which no directly comparable sales data is available. The sales comparison approach is often relied upon for owner-user properties. The income capitalization approach reflects the market’s perception of a relationship between a property’s potential income and its market value. This approach converts the anticipated net income from ownership of a property into a value indication through capitalization. The primary methods are direct capitalization and discounted cash flow analysis, with one or both methods applied, as appropriate. This approach is widely used in appraising income-producing properties. Reconciliation of the various indications into a conclusion of value is based on an evaluation of the quantity and quality of available data in each approach and the applicability of each approach to the property type. The methodology employed in this assignment is summarized as follows: Approaches to Value Approach Applicability to Subject Use in Assignment Cost Approach Not Applicable Not Utilized Sales Comparison Approach Applicable Utilized Income Capitalization Approach Not Applicable Not Utilized Sales Comparison Approach 37 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Sales Comparison Approach To develop an opinion of the subject’s land value, as if vacant and available to be developed to its highest and best use, we utilize the sales comparison approach. This approach develops an indication of value by researching, verifying, and analyzing sales of similar properties. For this analysis, we use price per square foot as the appropriate unit of comparison because market participants typically compare sale prices and property values on this basis. The most relevant sales are summarized in the following table.

The adjustment process is typically applied through either quantitative or qualitative analysis, or a combination of both analyses. Quantitative adjustments are often developed as dollar or percentage amounts, and are most credible when there is sufficient data to perform a paired sales analysis. While percentage adjustments are presented in the adjustment grid, they are based on qualitative judgment rather than empirical research, as there is not sufficient data to develop a sound quantitative estimate. Although the adjustments appear to be mathematically precise, they are merely intended to illustrate an opinion of typical market activity and perception. With the exception of market conditions, the adjustments are based on a scale, with a minor adjustment in the range of 1- 5% and a substantial adjustment considered to be 20% or greater. The rating of each comparable sale in relation to the subject is the basis for the adjustments. If the comparable is superior to the subject, its sale price is adjusted downward to reflect the subject’s relative attributes; if the comparable is inferior, its price is adjusted upward. Transactional adjustments are applied for property rights conveyed, financing, conditions of sale, expenditures made immediately after purchase, and market conditions. In addition, property adjustments include – but are not limited to – location, access/exposure, size, quality, effective age, economic and legal characteristics, and non-realty components of value. Adjustments are considered for the following factors, in the sequence shown below. Transactional Adjustments Real Property Rights Conveyed The opinion of value in this report is based on a fee simple estate, subject only to the limitations imposed by the governmental powers of taxation, eminent domain, police power and escheat, as well as non-detrimental easements, community facility districts, and conditions, covenants and restrictions (CC&Rs). All the comparables represent fee simple estate transactions. Therefore, adjustments for property rights are not necessary. Financing Terms In analyzing the comparables, it is necessary to adjust for financing terms that differ from market terms. Typically, if the buyer retained third-party financing (other than the seller) for the purpose of purchasing the property, a cash price is presumed and no adjustment is required. However, in instances where the seller provides financing as a debt instrument, a premium may have been paid by the buyer for below-market financing terms, or a discount may have been demanded by the buyer if the financing terms were above market. The premium or discounted price must then be adjusted to a cash equivalent basis. The comparable sales represented cash-to-seller transactions and, therefore, do not require adjustment. Conditions of Sale Adverse conditions of sale can account for a significant discrepancy from the sale price actually paid, compared to that of the market. This discrepancy in price is generally attributed to the motivations of Sales Comparison Approach 41 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 the buyer and the seller. Certain conditions of sale are considered non-market and may include the following: x a seller acting under duress (e.g., eminent domain, foreclosure); x buyer motivation (e.g., premium paid for assemblage, certain 1031 exchanges); x a lack of exposure to the open market; x an unusual tax consideration; x a sale at legal auction. None of the comparable sales had atypical or unusual conditions of sale. Thus, adjustments are not necessary. Expenditures Made Immediately After Purchase This category considers expenditures incurred immediately after the purchase of a property. There were no issues of deferred maintenance reported for any of the properties. No adjustments are required for expenditures after sale. Market Conditions A market conditions adjustment is applied when market conditions at the time of sale differ from market conditions as of the effective date of value. Adjustments can be positive when prices are rising, or negative when markets are challenged by factors such as a deterioration of the economy or adverse changes in supply and/or demand in the market area. Consideration must also be given to when the property was placed under contract, versus when the sale actually closed. In evaluating market conditions, changes between the comparable sale date and the effective date of this appraisal may warrant adjustment; however, if market conditions have not changed, then no adjustment is required. The sales took place from January 2023 to June 2025. Market conditions have generally been strengthening. The adjustment grid accounts for this trend with upward adjustments over this period through the effective date of value. Property Adjustments Location Factors considered in evaluating location include, but are not limited to, demographics, growth rates, surrounding uses and property values. Sales 1, 2 and 3 are similar to the subject. No adjustments are necessary. Sale 4 is adjusted downward for superior location as it is located just west of the Alliance Intermodal Facility. Access/Exposure Convenience to transportation facilities, ease of site access, and overall visibility of a property can have a direct impact on property value. High visibility, however, may not translate into higher value if it is not accompanied by good access. In general, high visibility and convenient access, including Sales Comparison Approach 42 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 proximity to major linkages, are considered positive amenities when compared to properties with inferior attributes. The subject is located along US 380 west of IH 35. Sale 1 is similar to the subject and requires no adjustment. Sale 2 is located along Masch Branch Rd just south of US 380 and is considered inferior; this sale was adjusted upward. Sale 3 is located along IH 35W but is inferior with regard to access; this sale was adjusted upward. Sale 4 has inferior frontage along John Day Rd and required an upward adjustment. Size Due to economies of scale, the market exhibits an inverse relationship between land area and price per square foot, such that larger sites generally sell for a lower price per square foot than smaller lots, all else being equal. To account for this relationship, applicable adjustments are applied for differences in land area. The comparables that are larger than the subject are adjusted upward, and vice versa. Sales 3 and 4 are similar to the subject and require no adjustment. Sales 1 and 2 are smaller than the subject, and downward adjustments are applied. Shape and Topography This category accounts for the shape of the site influencing its overall utility and/or development potential, as well as the grade of the land. The subject has a slightly irregular shape. All of the comparables have rectangular or slightly irregular shapes. No adjustments are necessary. Zoning This element of comparison accounts for government regulations that can affect the types and intensities of uses allowable on a site. Moreover, this category includes considerations such as allowable density or floor area ratio, structure height, setbacks, parking requirements, landscaping, and other development standards. The subject has a zoning designation of LI - Light Industrial. All of the comparables are similar to the subject. No adjustments are necessary. Utilities Sites with public utilities available are considered more desirable relative to properties requiring utility extensions, or those that need a private well and/or septic system. Properties without public utilities available typically require higher development costs, all else being equal. All of the comparables are similar to the subject. No adjustments are necessary. Easements Each comparable sale was reviewed for the presence and effect of any easements, and an adjustment was applied where such encumbrances differed from the subject. This adjustment reflects the contributory impact of the easement on value as indicated by market evidence. Sales Comparison Approach 43 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 The subject includes a large drainage easement in the eastern portion of the tract. Sales 1, 2, and 3 are superior to the subject in this regard and required downward adjustments. Sale 4 is noted to include pipeline and transmission line easements along one of its boundaries and required no adjustment for this characteristic as it is considered to be overall similar. Flood Floodplain areas typically experience reduced development potential, increased engineering or mitigation costs, and elevated risk perceptions that can affect market value. The adjustment isolates the contributory impact of floodplain encumbrance on land value based on observed market behavior and the proportion of land affected. Sale 1 has similar flood characteristics as compared to the subject, but the location of the flood area on this property is considered inferior to the subject; this sale is therefore adjusted upward. Sales 2, 3 and 4 are superior to the subject. Downward adjustments are applied. Adjustments Summary The sales are compared to the subject and adjusted to account for material differences that affect value. The following table summarizes the adjustments applied to each sale.

After adjustment, the range is narrowed to $3.91 - $5.20 per square foot, with an average of $4.39 per square foot. Each of the sales is considered in the reconciliation. Based on the preceding analysis, the land value conclusion for the subject is presented as follows: Land Value Conclusion Indicated Value per Square Foot $4.50 Subject Square Feet 2,174,080 Indicated Value $9,783,360 Reconciliation and Conclusion of Value – Whole Property 46 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Reconciliation and Conclusion of Value – Whole Property Reconciliation is the process of analyzing the relevance of the indicated values, resulting in a final value estimate. In each applicable approach, the appraisers have documented all of the input data and briefly explained the methodology in processing and/or analyzing this data. Insofar as the appraisers were able to determine, the data furnished is from reliable sources and has been accepted as being accurate. The Cost Approach assumes that an informed purchaser would pay no more than the cost of producing a substitute property with the same utility. This approach is particularly applicable when the improvements are relatively new and represent the highest and best use of the land, or when the property has unique or specialized improvements for which there are few or no sales or rentals of comparable properties. The Sales Comparison Approach is a comparison of known market transactions of similar properties. When sufficient information is available in order to make a unit comparison, a supportable indication of value can be obtained. The underlying economic factor in this approach is the Principle of Substitution, which states that a prudent purchaser would pay no more for a property than the cost of acquiring an equally desirable substitute property. This approach to value is most applicable when a sufficient number of comparable sales are available. The Income Capitalization Approach reflects the market’s perception of a relationship between a property’s potential income and its market value, a relationship expressed as a capitalization rate. Direct income capitalization is a method of converting a single year’s estimate of net operating income into an indicated present value. This approach converts the anticipated benefits to be derived from the ownership of property into a value indication through capitalization. Applicability of Valuation Approaches The value indications via each applicable approach and the final reconciliation of value for the whole property is summarized in the following table. Reconciliation - Whole Property Sales Comparison Approach (Land) $9,783,360 Cost Approach N/A Sales Comparison Approach (Improved) N/A Income Approach N/A Conclusion $9,783,360 Part Acquired 47 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Part Acquired The following portion of the appraisal process deals directly with the valuation of the subject part acquired. The part acquired is the portion of the subject that is acquired by eminent domain from the whole property. The valuation of the part acquired is predicated on the market value of the property prior to any acquisition and excludes the influence of the subject project. Partial Acquisition Description The acquisition is a linear permanent sanitary sewer easement containing 0.682 acres or 29,689 square feet. It has a width of 20 feet and runs generally north-south through the eastern portion of the property. There are minimal site improvements noted to be within the proposed easement acquisition (see extraordinary assumption 1). According to the client, the easement was routed to be located completely within the existing public drainage easement referenced in the site analysis section of this report. The permanent easement is depicted below as the purple outlined area This shape and size is based on our review of the field notes and preliminary survey provided by the client. These sizes will be utilized in the calculations herein and are assumed to be accurate. A survey of the Part Acquired follows. Part Acquired Survey - Sanitary Sewer Easement 48 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Part Acquired Survey - Sanitary Sewer Easement Highest and Best Use – Part Acquired 49 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Economic Unit The acquisition is not an appropriate configuration to be considered an economic unit on its own; therefore, it is appraised as if used in conjunction with the remainder to form an economic unit that yields the highest net return to the land. In order to take full advantage of the physical characteristics of the subject property, the part to be acquired is used in conjunction with the Remainder After (the size of the Whole Property). The economic unit meets all the tests of highest and best use of the subject property as discussed below. Highest and Best Use – Part Acquired Highest and best use may be defined as that reasonably probable and legal use of vacant land or improved property that is physically possible, appropriately supported, and financially feasible that results in the highest value. The four tests to develop adequate support for an opinion of highest and best use, applied in order, are legal permissibility, physical possibility, financial feasibility, and maximum productivity. As Vacant Analysis – Part Acquired Due to its configuration, the area of the partial acquisition could not stand alone as a separate and independent economic unit. The partial acquisition’s use is essentially limited to use in conjunction with the whole property. As such, the highest and best use of the part acquired, as vacant, is for use in conjunction with the subject whole property. As Improved Analysis – Part Acquired The highest and best use of the part acquired, as improved, is the same as that of the subject whole property. Valuation Methodology In this instance, the subject part acquired is an easement consisting of land only (see extraordinary assumption 1). As an integral part of the whole property, the part acquired shares the same physical and economic characteristics. Because the highest and best use of the part acquired is for use in conjunction with the subject whole property, the part acquired shares the same per unit land value concluded in the valuation of the subject whole property and applied in the valuation of the part acquired. The calculation of the value of the part acquired is summarized in the following reconciliation discussion. Land Value - Part Acquired Since the economic unit analyzed to derive a value estimate for the Part Acquired is the same size as the subject Whole Property, the same set of land sales are utilized in estimating the value of the Part Acquired as were used in the analysis of the Whole Property. Therefore, the value of the Part Acquired is estimated at $4.50 per square foot. Since the subject acquisition is an easement and not a fee simple acquisition, a percentage of the fee simple interest will remain with the property owner after the acquisition. Valuation Methodology 50 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Easement Valuation Matrix As noted, the part to be acquired contains fee acquisitions and easement areas. The following chart (Right of Way Magazine, “Easement Valuation”, Sherwood, May 2006) outlines a very basic analysis of typical easement encumbrances. It can be used as a generic guide to analyze the extent of ownership the fee owner loses as a result of the encumbrance brought about by an easement. The subject Part Acquired is a proposed sanitary sewer easement. The easement will be subsurface and can be crossed by driveways. Similar easements will typically allow a variety of site improvements within their boundaries. The area within the proposed easement has been designed to be located completely within the existing public drainage easement located in the eastern portion of the tract. It is unlikely that permanent building improvements would be permitted within this existing easement. The drainage area is currently utilized as retention for the existing industrial facility. The effect of the proposed easement on the use and utility of the property in its current state and on any future uses is minimal. For this reason, I estimate that 25% of the fee value reasonably represents the portion of the bundle of rights attributable to the proposed sanitary sewer easement. The Part Acquired contains a total of 0.682 acres or 29,689 square feet. Therefore, the easement land value of the Part Acquired is estimated at $33,400. Valuation Methodology 51 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Land Value Summary – Part Acquired The part acquired was valued as an integral component of the whole property. The value is based on its pro rata contribution to the whole. As previously mentioned, the per unit value for the land and improvements (if applicable) were previously calculated in the valuation of the whole property and are applied in the valuation of the part acquired as follows. Recognizing the rights to be acquired, the easement is valued at 25% of the fee simple estate. Value of the Acquisition $33,400 By Sales Comparison Approach - Sanitary Sewer Easement Easement $4.50 x 29,689 SF x 25% = $33,400 Value of Improvements located within PTA = $0 Remainder Before the Acquisition 52 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Remainder Before the Acquisition The indicated value of the remainder before the acquisition is derived by deducting the estimated value of the acquisition from the value of the whole property. The calculations are as follows: Value of the Whole Property $9,783,360 By Sales Comparison Approach Fee Simple $4.50 x 2,174,080 SF x 100% = $9,783,360 By Cost Approach N/A By Sales Comparison Approach - Improved N/A By Income Capitalization Approach N/A Value of the Acquisition $33,400 By Sales Comparison Approach - Sanitary Sewer Easement Easement $4.50 x 29,689 SF x 25% = $33,400 Value of Improvements located within PTA = $0 Value of the Remainder Before $9,749,960 Analysis of the Remainder After The value of the Remainder After is appraised independently and takes into consideration the effect the subject acquisition has on the remainder. This estimate is based upon a new site analysis, highest and best use analysis, as well as the employment of the three approaches to value, where applicable. Damages or enhancements to the remainder are calculated by subtracting the value of the Remainder After from the value of the Remainder Before the acquisition. If the calculation is positive, damages exist. However, if the figure is negative enhancements are present. If an enhancement exists, it is noted; however, enhancements are not deducted from the total compensation. Property Description - Remainder After The proposed easement is a 20’ linear corridor through the existing drainage area on the eastern portion of the tract. The acquisition does not alter the development utility of the site, nor does it restrict access to the site. As such, the utility and development potential of the remainder is the same as before the acquisition. Highest and Best Use - Remainder After – As If Vacant Since the Remainder After is an economic unit similar to the Whole Property, the highest and best use of the Remainder After and the subject Whole Property is the same. Value of the Remainder After the Acquistion $9,749,960 By Sales Comparison Approach $4.50 x 2,144,391 SF x 100% = $9,649,760 $4.50 x 29,689 SF x 75% = $100,200 By Cost Approach N/A By Income Capitalization Approach N/A Reconciliation $9,749,960 Cost to Cure 53 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Cost to Cure There are no improvements known to be affected by the proposed acquisition (see extraordinary assumption 1). Therefore, no cost to cure is necessary. Land Value -Temporary Easement The temporary construction easement will be used during the construction phase of surrounding improvements associated with the sanitary sewer easement. The temporary construction easement includes a total of 0.851 acres or 37,051 SF. Similar easements typically have a duration of 2 years. The temporary construction easement has a width of 25’ and is located along the west side of the proposed permanent easement. Since these types of easements are not rented in the market, an annual rental rate can be estimated by applying a market land capitalization rate to the fee simple value for the land over the duration that the easement is in place. The fee simple value for the property was estimated at $4.50 per SF. Market land capitalization rates typically range from 7% to 10%. A rate at the upper limit of this range is reasonable considering the subject easement’s size and location. The calculations for the value of the temporary construction easement are as follows: Value of Temporary Easement(s) $33,346 $4.50 x 37,051 SF x 10% x 2 = $33,346 Estimate of Compensation 54 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Estimate of Compensation Value of the Whole Property $9,783,360 By Sales Comparison Approach Fee Simple $4.50 x 2,174,080 SF x 100% = $9,783,360 By Cost Approach N/A By Sales Comparison Approach - Improved N/A By Income Capitalization Approach N/A Value of the Acquisition $33,400 By Sales Comparison Approach - Sanitary Sewer Easement Easement $4.50 x 29,689 SF x 25% = $33,400 Value of Improvements located within PTA = $0 Value of the Remainder Before $9,749,960 Value of the Remainder After the Acquistion $9,749,960 By Sales Comparison Approach $4.50 x 2,144,391 SF x 100% = $9,649,760 $4.50 x 29,689 SF x 75% = $100,200 By Cost Approach N/A By Income Capitalization Approach N/A Reconciliation $9,749,960 Damages/Enhancements (Remainder Before - Remainder After)$0 Value of Temporary Easement(s) $33,346 $4.50 x 37,051 SF x 10% x 2 = $33,346 Cost to Cure $0 Market Value of Acquisition $66,746 Exposure Time Exposure time is the length of time the subject property would have been exposed for sale in the market had it sold on the effective valuation date at the concluded market value. Exposure time is always presumed to precede the effective date of the appraisal. Based on our review of recent sales transactions for similar properties and our analysis of supply and demand in the local market, it is our opinion that the probable exposure time for the subject at the concluded market values stated previously is 6-12 months. Estimate of Compensation 55 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Marketing Time Marketing time is an estimate of the amount of time it might take to sell a property at the concluded market value immediately following the effective date of value. As we foresee no significant changes in market conditions in the near term, it is our opinion that a reasonable marketing period for the subject is likely to be the same as the exposure time. Accordingly, we estimate the subject’s marketing period at 6-12 months. Valuation 56 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Certification We certify that, to the best of our knowledge and belief: 1.

The property is in compliance with all applicable building, environmental, zoning, and other federal, state and local laws, regulations and codes. 5. The information furnished by others is believed to be reliable, but no warranty is given for its accuracy. This appraisal and any other work product related to this engagement are subject to the following limiting conditions, except as otherwise noted in the report: 1. An appraisal is inherently subjective and represents our opinion as to the value of the property appraised. 2. The conclusions stated in our appraisal apply only as of the effective date of the appraisal, and no representation is made as to the effect of subsequent events. 3. No changes in any federal, state or local laws, regulations or codes (including, without limitation, the Internal Revenue Code) are anticipated. 4. No environmental impact studies were either requested or made in conjunction with this appraisal, and we reserve the right to revise or rescind any of the value opinions based upon any subsequent environmental impact studies. If any environmental impact statement is required by law, the appraisal assumes that such statement will be favorable and will be approved by the appropriate regulatory bodies. 5. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, we are not required to give testimony, respond to any subpoena or attend any court, governmental or other hearing with reference to the property without compensation relative to such additional employment. 6. We have made no survey of the property and assume no responsibility in connection with such matters. Any sketch or survey of the property included in this report is for illustrative purposes only and should not be considered to be scaled accurately for size. The appraisal covers the property as described in this report, and the areas and dimensions set forth are assumed to be correct. Valuation 59 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 7. No opinion is expressed as to the value of subsurface oil, gas or mineral rights, if any, and we have assumed that the property is not subject to surface entry for the exploration or removal of such materials, unless otherwise noted in our appraisal. 8. We accept no responsibility for considerations requiring expertise in other fields. Such considerations include, but are not limited to, legal descriptions and other legal matters such as legal title, geologic considerations such as soils and seismic stability; and civil, mechanical, electrical, structural and other engineering and environmental matters. Such considerations may also include determinations of compliance with zoning and other federal, state, and local laws, regulations and codes. 9. The distribution of the total valuation in the report between land and improvements applies only under the reported highest and best use of the property. The allocations of value for land and improvements must not be used in conjunction with any other appraisal and are invalid if so used. The appraisal report shall be considered only in its entirety. No part of the appraisal report shall be utilized separately or out of context. 10. Neither all nor any part of the contents of this report (especially any conclusions as to value, the identity of the appraisers, or any reference to the Appraisal Institute) shall be disseminated through advertising media, public relations media, news media or any other means of communication (including without limitation prospectuses, private offering memoranda and other offering material provided to prospective investors) without the prior written consent of the persons signing the report. 11. Information, estimates and opinions contained in the report and obtained from third-party sources are assumed to be reliable and have not been independently verified. 12. Any income and expense estimates contained in the appraisal report are used only for the purpose of estimating value and do not constitute predictions of future operating results. 13. If the property is subject to one or more leases, any estimate of residual value contained in the appraisal may be particularly affected by significant changes in the condition of the economy, of the real estate industry, or of the appraised property at the time these leases expire or otherwise terminate. 14. Unless otherwise stated in the report, no consideration has been given to personal property located on the premises or to the cost of moving or relocating such personal property; only the real property has been considered. 15. The current purchasing power of the dollar is the basis for the values stated in the appraisal; we have assumed that no extreme fluctuations in economic cycles will occur. 16. The values found herein are subject to these and to any other assumptions or conditions set forth in the body of this report but which may have been omitted from this list of Assumptions and Limiting Conditions. 17. The analyses contained in the report necessarily incorporate numerous estimates and assumptions regarding property performance, general and local business and economic conditions, the absence of material changes in the competitive environment and other matters. Some estimates or assumptions, however, inevitably will not materialize, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur; therefore, actual results achieved during Valuation 60 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 the period covered by our analysis will vary from our estimates, and the variations may be material. 18. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) became effective January 26, 1992. We have not made a specific survey or analysis of the property to determine whether the physical aspects of the improvements meet the ADA accessibility guidelines. We claim no expertise in ADA issues, and render no opinion regarding compliance of the subject with ADA regulations. Inasmuch as compliance matches each owner’s financial ability with the cost to cure the non- conforming physical characteristics of a property, a specific study of both the owner’s financial ability and the cost to cure any deficiencies would be needed for the Department of Justice to determine compliance. 19. The appraisal report is prepared for the exclusive benefit of you, your subsidiaries and/or affiliates. It may not be used or relied upon by any other party. All parties who use or rely upon any information in the report without our written consent do so at their own risk. 20. No studies have been provided to us indicating the presence or absence of hazardous materials on the subject property or in the improvements, and our valuation is predicated upon the assumption that the subject property is free and clear of any environment hazards including, without limitation, hazardous wastes, toxic substances and mold. No representations or warranties are made regarding the environmental condition of the subject property. IRR - Fort Worth , Integra Realty Resources, Inc., and their respective officers, owners, managers, directors, agents, subcontractors or employees (the “Integra Parties”), shall not be responsible for any such environmental conditions that do exist or for any engineering or testing that might be required to discover whether such conditions exist. Because we are not experts in the field of environmental conditions, the appraisal report cannot be considered as an environmental assessment of the subject property. 21. The persons signing the report may have reviewed available flood maps and may have noted in the appraisal report whether the subject property is located in an identified Special Flood Hazard Area. However, we are not qualified to detect such areas and therefore do not guarantee such determinations. The presence of flood plain areas and/or wetlands may affect the value of the property, and the value conclusion is predicated on the assumption that wetlands are non-existent or minimal. 22. We are not a building or environmental inspector. The Integra Parties do not guarantee that the subject property is free of defects or environmental problems. Mold may be present in the subject property and a professional inspection is recommended. 23. The appraisal report and value conclusions for an appraisal assume the satisfactory completion of construction, repairs or alterations in a workmanlike manner. 24. IRR - Fort Worth is an independently owned and operated company. The parties hereto agree that Integra shall not be liable for any claim arising out of or relating to any appraisal report or any information or opinions contained therein as such appraisal report is the sole and exclusive responsibility of IRR - Fort Worth . In addition, it is expressly agreed that in any action which may be brought against the Integra Parties arising out of, relating to, or in any way pertaining to the engagement letter, the appraisal reports or any related work product, the Integra Parties shall not be responsible or liable for any incidental or Valuation 61 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 consequential damages or losses, unless the appraisal was fraudulent or prepared with intentional misconduct. It is further expressly agreed that the collective liability of the Integra Parties in any such action shall not exceed the fees paid for the preparation of the assignment (unless the appraisal was fraudulent or prepared with intentional misconduct). It is expressly agreed that the fees charged herein are in reliance upon the foregoing limitations of liability. 25. IRR - Fort Worth is an independently owned and operated company, which has prepared the appraisal for the specific intended use stated elsewhere in the report. The use of the appraisal report by anyone other than the Client is prohibited except as otherwise provided. Accordingly, the appraisal report is addressed to and shall be solely for the Client’s use and benefit unless we provide our prior written consent. We expressly reserve the unrestricted right to withhold our consent to your disclosure of the appraisal report or any other work product related to the engagement (or any part thereof including, without limitation, conclusions of value and our identity), to any third parties. Stated again for clarification, unless our prior written consent is obtained, no third party may rely on the appraisal report (even if their reliance was foreseeable). 26. The conclusions of this report are estimates based on known current trends and reasonably foreseeable future occurrences. These estimates are based partly on property information, data obtained in public records, interviews, existing trends, buyer-seller decision criteria in the current market, and research conducted by third parties, and such data are not always completely reliable. The Integra Parties are not responsible for these and other future occurrences that could not have reasonably been foreseen on the effective date of this assignment. Furthermore, it is inevitable that some assumptions will not materialize and that unanticipated events may occur that will likely affect actual performance. While we are of the opinion that our findings are reasonable based on current market conditions, we do not represent that these estimates will actually be achieved, as they are subject to considerable risk and uncertainty. Moreover, we assume competent and effective management and marketing for the duration of the projected holding period of this property. 27. All prospective value opinions presented in this report are estimates and forecasts which are prospective in nature and are subject to considerable risk and uncertainty. In addition to the contingencies noted in the preceding paragraph, several events may occur that could substantially alter the outcome of our estimates such as, but not limited to changes in the economy, interest rates, and capitalization rates, behavior of consumers, investors and lenders, fire and other physical destruction, changes in title or conveyances of easements and deed restrictions, etc. It is assumed that conditions reasonably foreseeable at the present time are consistent or similar with the future. 28. The appraisal is also subject to the following: Valuation 62 SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Extraordinary Assumptions and Hypothetical Conditions 1.All information relative to the subject property, including land areas and other pertinent data that was provided by the client and public records, is assumed to be correct. 2.The proposed easement crosses an interior driveway and a portion of chain link fencing. This analysis is based on the extraordinary assumption that the easement will either not affect these improvements or the client will replace them directly as part of the project. If this is not the case, the value estimates herein may change. 1.The project for which the acquisition is necessary is assumed to be complete and being fully utilized for purposes of estimating the value of the Remainder After the Acquisition, it is also assumed that the property is affected by the project similar to the community. If it becomes known that there are specific damages that affect the subject property that are not considered herin, this appraisal and its conclusion may be subject to reconsideration. The use of any extraordinary assumption or hypothetical condition may have affected the assignment results. The value conclusions are based on the following hypothetical conditions. A hypothetical condition is a condition, directly related to a specific assignment, which is contrary to what is known by the appraiser to exist on the effective date of the assignment results, but is used for the purpose of analysis. The value conclusions are subject to the following extraordinary assumptions. An extraordinary assumption is an assignment-specific assumption as of the effective date regarding uncertain information used in an analysis which, if found to be false, could alter the appraiser’s opinions or conclusions.

This definition can also be modified to provide for valuation with specified financing terms. Effective Date 1. The date on which the appraisal or review opinion applies. 2. In a lease document, the date upon which the lease goes into effect. Entitlement In the context of ownership, use, or development of real estate, governmental approval for annexation, zoning, utility extensions, number of lots, total floor area, construction permits, and occupancy or use permits. Entrepreneurial Incentive The amount an entrepreneur expects to receive for his or her contribution to a project. Entrepreneurial incentive may be distinguished from entrepreneurial profit (often called developer’s SSE & TCE - Fisher59 profit) in that it is the expectation of future profit as opposed to the profit actually earned on a development or improvement. The amount of entrepreneurial incentive required for a project represents the economic reward sufficient to motivate an entrepreneur to accept the risk of the project and to invest the time and money necessary in seeing the project through to completion. Entrepreneurial Profit 1. A market-derived figure that represents the amount an entrepreneur receives for his or her contribution to a project and risk; the difference between the total cost of a property (cost of development) and its market value (property value after completion), which represents the entrepreneur’s compensation for the risk and expertise associated with development. An entrepreneur is motivated by the prospect of future value enhancement (i.e., the entrepreneurial incentive). An entrepreneur who successfully creates value through new development, expansion, renovation, or an innovative change of use is rewarded by entrepreneurial profit. Entrepreneurs may also fail and suffer losses. 2. In economics, the actual return on successful management practices, often identified with coordination, the fourth factor of production following land, labor, and capital; also called entrepreneurial return or entrepreneurial reward. Exposure Time 1. The time a property remains on the market. 2. The estimated length of time that the property interest being appraised would have been offered on the market prior to the hypothetical consummation of a sale at market value on the effective date of the appraisal; a retrospective opinion based on an analysis of past events assuming a competitive and open market. Fee Simple Estate Absolute ownership unencumbered by any other interest or estate, subject only to the limitations imposed by the governmental powers of taxation, eminent domain, police power, and escheat. Floor Area Ratio (FAR) The relationship between the above-ground floor area of a building, as described by the zoning or building code, and the area of the plot on which it stands; in planning and zoning, often expressed as a decimal, e.g., a ratio of 2.0 indicates that the permissible floor area of a building is twice the total land area. Highest and Best Use 1. The reasonably probable use of property that results in the highest value. The four criteria that the highest and best use must meet are legal permissibility, physical possibility, financial feasibility, and maximum productivity. 2. The use of an asset that maximizes its potential and that is possible, legally permissible, and financially feasible. The highest and best use may be for continuation of an asset’s existing use or for some alternative use. This is determined by the use that a market participant would have in mind for the asset when formulating the price that it would be willing to bid. (ISV) SSE & TCE - Fisher59 3. [The] highest and most profitable use for which the property is adaptable and needed or likely to be needed in the reasonably near future. (Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions) Investment Value 1. The value of a property to a particular investor or class of investors based on the investor’s specific requirements. Investment value may be different from market value because it depends on a set of investment criteria that are not necessarily typical of the market. 2. The value of an asset to the owner or a prospective owner for individual investment or operational objectives. Lease A contract in which rights to use and occupy land, space, or structures are transferred by the owner to another for a specified period of time in return for a specified rent. Leased Fee Interest The ownership interest held by the lessor, which includes the right to receive the contract rent specified in the lease plus the reversionary right when the lease expires. Leasehold Interest The right held by the lessee to use and occupy real estate for a stated term and under the conditions specified in the lease. Liquidation Value The most probable price that a specified interest in real property should bring under the following conditions: 1. Consummation of a sale within a short time period. 2. The property is subjected to market conditions prevailing as of the date of valuation. 3. Both the buyer and seller are acting prudently and knowledgeably. 4. The seller is under extreme compulsion to sell. 5. The buyer is typically motivated. 6. Both parties are acting in what they consider to be their best interests. 7. A normal marketing effort is not possible due to the brief exposure time. 8. Payment will be made in cash in U.S. dollars (or the local currency) or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto. 9. 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. This definition can also be modified to provide for valuation with specified financing terms. SSE & TCE - Fisher59 Marketing Time An opinion of the amount of time it might take to sell a real or personal property interest at the concluded market value level during the period immediately after the effective date of an appraisal. Marketing time differs from exposure time, which is always presumed to precede the effective date of an appraisal. Market Value 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: x buyer and seller are typically motivated; x both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what they consider their own best interests; x a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; x payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and x 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.

The term does not define a type of value. Instead, it identifies a value opinion as being effective at some specific future date. An opinion of value as of a prospective date is frequently sought in connection with projects that are proposed, under construction, or under conversion to a new use, or those that have not yet achieved sellout or a stabilized level of long-term occupancy.
