4 The owner will occupy and manage the facility. Hands-on owner management will provide for long-term maintenance and protection for the tenant-occupant s investment. LEASE INFORMATION The rental rates and terms will be competitive within the local marketplace. As is traditional for such properties, the larger the space the lower the rental rate will be per square foot. The longer the term of the lease, the lower the rental rate will be per square foot. This results from the need for individual installation of plumbing fixtures, electrical services, heating and air-conditioning, etc. Yet the advantage to tenant is that the tenant pays for the services the tenant actually uses. The preferred term of a lease will be a firm term of 3 to 5 years with options to extend the lease beyond the initial term as prescribed in the lease. There will be an annual increase in the base rent at the anniversary date of the lease of 3 percent. All terms and conditions of the lease must be in full force and effect for a lease to be extended. There will be a common area maintenance fee. This fee will be based upon a prorata of the actual costs associated with exterior lighting, cleaning, insurance, shared signage, pavement repairs and striping, etc. general maintenance items. It will not include capital improvements made by the owners. The owner will be responsible for all structure repairs to the units other than glass breakage or damage as a result of tenant s or tenant invitees negligence or vandalism. The tenant will pay its prorata share of the real estate taxes. If units are vacant, the owner is responsible for the real estate taxes on those units. The tenant will pay their personal property taxes and the owner will pay his personal property taxes. Upon payment of such taxes, the tenant will provide the owner with a copy of the receipt demonstrating all such are paid to date. The tenant will secure an insurance policy to cover the tenant s property and a general liability and property damage policy with limits of not less than One Million Dollars combined single limit per occurrence and Two Million Dollars in aggregate or as otherwise deemed acceptable to the Landlord. GENERAL AREA INFORMAION The property is approximately 20 minutes south of Hagerstown, Maryland, and the intersection of I-81 and I-70 leading into metropolitan Washington and Baltimore.

5 Winchester, Virginia, is approximately 30 minutes south of the property. Numerous federal facilities are located in the immediate area or within commuting distance. The most recent federal addition to the immediate area is the U.S. Coast Guard Maritime Center. It will be constructed at a cost of $30 million to centralize licensing and documentation functions of the 17 regional examination centers throughout the country. The new facility is projected to be complete in the summer of 2007 and will employ 250 persons. It will be located on Edwin Miller Boulevard 2.3 miles, or 4 minutes, from the property. Interstate 81 has become a major north/south traffic artery for the movement of freight as well as traditional transportation. Portions of I-81 have been expanded to 6-lanes of traffic and the balance is scheduled for funding in the near future. Numerous sensitive governmental and financial facilities have been relocated or have developed backup facilities 50 or more miles to the west of the DC metropolitan area to provide greater security. Likewise, the Eastern WV Regional Airport is being upgraded to bed-down the C-5 jumbo transport jet. An outstanding facility is in development and attracting much deserved attention. The I-81 corridor is an attractive choice for such relocations. Other regional attractions include lower cost of living, lower crime rate, more secure schools, less costly housing, cleaner air and water, and an abundance of outdoor recreational activities.
