HICKLIN HISTORY Gilead Rupe James Hicklin Young Ewing Hicklin James Hicklin was born in Blount County, TN on January 7, 1795 and left an important legacy. Not much is known of his early life except that he served as a private in the War of 1812 and with the Georgia State Militia in 1813. As a young man of 24, James traveled by horseback from Tennessee to settle near his uncle Gilead Rupe, Lexington s first settler. He traveled with his father John (d. 1824), brothers Jonathon and John and other family members. Their party traveled via covered wagon with the Ish family to become a part of Lexington s earliest settlers. James liked to claim that he entered his career with no advantages, neither of birth, education (he could not read or write), or marriage. But his stubborn determination to rise in the world produced material results. By the 1830 s, he had married, acquired a farm, built a log house on it, and had done some trading in slaves. He engaged in diversified agriculture (tobacco and hemp), and was not a plantation owner as his home might suggest. Despite its imposing appearance, his home was in actuality only a modest sized farm house that eventually had to accommodate a very large family. James worked as a surveyor of both roads and land and in 1829, purchased the land on which the Hicklin home stands. His holdings eventually grew from 320 acres to well over 1,000 acres. Young Ewing Hicklin, the son of James and Agnes Rebecca Cropp Hicklin, was born in Lexington on July 29,1842. He purchased the Hicklin Farm from his siblings upon his father s death in 1875. Gilead Rupe, Lexington s first settler and Uncle to James Hicklin. mike@wheelerauctions.com 3

The new owner shall contact me or someone at MoDOT to obtain a permit to install this entrance. No pipe culvert will be necessary at this location.

Tenant Agreement: There are no tenant agreements in place for 2018 crop year. Special Note: An additional 41 acres m/l of contiguous farm ground will be available via a rental agreement for the tenant or landowner that farms the purchased Hicklin farm ground. This rental agreement for the additional 41 acres m/l of farm ground will be between the buyer or tenant and the owners of the ground. The current tenant for 2017 would like to submit a proposal to continue farming the ground in the case where a non-farming buyer is the purchaser. Farm is enrolled in the USDA/FSA Price Loss Coverage for both Corn and Soybeans Base Acres are currently divided equally @ 31.71 acres for both Corn and Soybeans totaling 63.42 acres.

Lexington R-V School District Zoned agriculture Taxes: Seller is responsible for the 2017 Taxes and the new buyer will assume the 2018 taxes and beyond. Taxes for 2016 totaled $1715.10 and included acreage of 141, the Hicklin home, outbuildings, and Tabo Watershed. Taxes for the 105 acres will be considerably less for 2018 but yet to be determined by the Lafayette County Assessor. The Land: The Hicklin farm ground, 42 acres m/l is productive and has been well cared for. The tiling and terracing in place has proven very beneficial. The tillable land is easy to farm and accommodates large machinery. Its location and access to convenient grain markets are assets regardless of the size of your operation. The crop yield history presented in this prospectus is comparable to or exceeds most grain production in Lafayette County. The soil type for the tillable land is rich and deep. It is located along the Missouri River Corridor that receives valuable rainfall during the growing season when other areas do not. Whether you are looking to buy a small land parcel with farming as a means to service the debt on your recreational land or if you wish to add more land to your portfolio, the crop land in this farm will prove rewarding. 63 acres m/l of unique recreational land makes up the balance of the Hicklin farm that will sell at auction. These 63 acres m/l mirrors the landscape in the movie Ride with the Devil. Hunters over the years have enjoyed the harvest of trophy deer, turkey, quail, and mushrooms. For the horse lovers, trail riding could be scenic, exciting, challenging and rewarding. The deep draws, terrain, and drainage lends itself to future lake possibilities for fishing and waterfowl. The Cemetery & Mausoleum: Not included in the land sale but on the North end of the tillable acres is the family cemetery..28 acre around the cemetery has been surveyed and will remain with the property of the homestead. A 12 ft. wide ingress/egress easement from the homestead property to the cemetery is in place. It is marked on the survey presented in this prospectus. mike@wheelerauctions.com 5
Timber: The timber is completely in tact. Two recent bids to harvest the timber were submitted to the Trustee. It was determined the standing mature timber consisting of Red Oak, White Oak, Hickory, Cottonwood, Basswood, and Walnut was abundant and if available for harvest, would secure from $25,000 to as much as $50,000 in revenue depending on how much of the timber was selected. A determination to leave the timber as it stands and allow the new purchaser the option to either reap financial rewards with a harvest or keep the pristine hunting ground and landscape in place for recreational and wildlife benefits. C C Timber Consultant Chris Lohman, October 13, 2017 Dear Marcia, It was a pleasure to meet with you and walk your property this week. I was able to walk most of the woods on Monday alernoon, measure several trees, take some quick sampling points, and get a feel for what your woods consists of. A majority of the merchantable Pmber consists of red oak. There is also some white oak, and a small amount of hickory, coqonwood, basswood, and other hardwoods. Walnut is also common throughout the stand, and especially abundant in the northwestern corner of the property close to the crop field. Based on my sampling, I espmate that there is somewhere around 3,000 board feet per acre of merchantable Pmber. If a Pmber sale was conducted and every merchantable tree was harvested (essenpally clear cut the property), I would expect the sale to generate somewhere in the range of $50,000to $60,000. If we completed a more selecpve sale as we discussed, I would expect less in total revenue, and the total sale revenue will depend on how much Pmber we mark and include in the sale. As a point of reference, many of the Pmber sales I have completed for other clients over the last few years with similar type of Pmber have brought a return of $300-$500 per acre ($24,000 to $40,000 for an 80-acre Pmber sale). 6 www.wheelerauctions.com
