As requested by our client, the purpose of this appraisal is to provide an opinion of the As Is Market Value of the subject property. It is our opinion that the requested "As Is" Market Value estimate is as follows: Effective Date "As Is" Market Value of Subject Property: $450,000 February 21, 2008 Market value, as used 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." Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: a) buyer and seller are typically motivated; b) both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what he considers his own best interest; c) a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; d) payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and e) 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. (source:12 CFR 34.42(g)) Unless otherwise stated in this report, the existence of hazardous substances, including without limitation asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls petroleum leakage, and agricultural chemicals, which may or may not be present on the property, or other environmental conditions, were not called to the 3

attention of nor did the appraiser become aware of the existence of such materials on or in the property unless otherwise stated. The appraiser, however, is not qualified to test such substances or conditions. The presence of such substances, such as asbestos, urea formaldehyde foam insulation, or other hazardous substances or environmental conditions, may affect the value of the property, and the value herein would be invalid. The value estimated is predicted on the assumption that there is no such condition on or in the property or in such proximity thereto that it should cause a loss in value. No responsibility is assumed for any such conditions, nor for any expertise or engineering knowledge required to discover them. It should be noted that the value estimates are based on a Reasonable Exposure period of twelve months or less, which is based on an analysis of market transactions and on our interpretation of market participants in Leon County and surrounding area. The appraisal has been prepared in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) and The Code of Professional Ethics and Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice of the Appraisal Institute. The appraisal is not based on a requested minimum valuation, a specific valuation, or loan approval. Yours truly, PARAMOUNT PROPERTY ANALYSTS A DIVISION OF PARAMOUNT ANALYSTS LLC Brian M.

PREFACE An appraisal is a type of research into the law of probabilities with respect to real estate valuation. Through appraiser's education, training, experience, knowledge, and integrity, he is able to project sellers' and buyers' activities into a forecast of real estate values. Because of the individuality and uniqueness of each property, comparisons of like properties often entail adjustments in arriving at a conclusion. Financial consideration for similar properties sometimes reflect sentiment, compassion, sympathy, bias, politics, specific needs, lack of understanding and other factors not considered by the impartial appraiser. The appraiser is an advocate of the property being appraised. His judgment and opinion cannot be altered by principals of the transaction, the lender, seller, purchaser, or broker. An appraisal cannot be guaranteed; cannot be proved. However, the opinion of value can be substantiated and justified and the final opinion of value is the result of professional analysis of a considerable quantity of physical and economic facts. An appraisal must not be considered absolute but should be used as a basis of negotiation between parties involved in the property, whatever their interests. With the foregoing in mind, the reader is invited to review the following report, which sets forth the data and reasoning leading to the estimate of value of the property under appraisement. This is a Summary Appraisal, which is intended to comply with the reporting requirements set forth under Standard 2-2(b) of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal for a Summary Appraisal. As such, it presents a complete discussion of the opinion of the value; and supporting documentation concerning the data, reasoning, and analyses is included in this report. The analyses and conclusions contained in this report are specific to the needs of the client and for the intended use as stated as follows: The appraiser is not responsible for any unauthorized use of this appraisal report. 16

DATE AND PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL The purpose of this appraisal is to estimate the "As Is" Market Value of the subject property based on market conditions as of February 21, 2008. MARKET VALUE DEFINITIONS Market Value 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. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: 1. Buyer and seller are typically motivated; 2. Both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what he considers his own best interest; 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 arrangements comparable thereto; and 5. 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.

REAL ESTATE An identified parcel or tract of land including improvements, if any. 1 FEE SIMPLE ESTATE Absolute ownership unencumbered by any other interest or estate subject only to the four powers of government. 2 LEGAL DESCRIPTION 7.913 acre tract, A591, J McGrew, Turner Edition Tract 19, Leon County, Texas MARKETING PERIOD An attempt was made to locate comparable sales and listings that are similar to the subject property in order to determine the marketing time for the subject property. In confirming these sales and listings, marketing information was not available for each of the sale properties. However, a typical marketing period for property such as the subject generally extends from 6 to 18 months. The listing price is a main determinant of how long it takes a property to sell. Based on the most similar sales in the subject market, it is our opinion that the subject property should have a marketing time of approximately twelve months if prudently managed and aggressively marketed at the herein appraised value. INTENDED USER No other users are permitted outside the intended user of this report which is the addressee, Prosperity Bank. PROPERTY RIGHTS APPRAISED The value estimate contained herein is based on the fee simple interest of the subject property based on market conditions as of February 21, 2008. FUNCTION OF THE REPORT The function of this appraisal report is to provide an estimate of "As Is" Market Value for the subject property for loan underwriting purposes. 1 The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, 2 nd edition, American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers, Page 247. 2 The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, 2 nd edition, American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers, Page 120. 18

SCOPE OF THE APPRAISAL The term "scope of the appraisal" is defined as the extent of the process of collecting, confirming, and reporting the pertinent data contained in an appraisal report. In this appraisal, an attempt was made to collect and verify all relevant general and specific data pertaining to the subject property and the subject market area. Information was obtained from real estate and economic publications, the appraiser s own files, as well as contacts with other appraisers, brokers, developers, and other knowledgeable people in the subject market area. The information obtained from these sources was verified by more than one source and is felt to be reliable, but is not guaranteed. The valuation of the subject property involved the following steps: 1) an inspection of the subject property and surrounding neighborhood to observe physical conditions, amenities, and available services; 2) a detailed highest and best use analysis to determine the most profitable use for the subject property; 3) an estimate of market value of the subject property by the Cost, Income and Sales Comparison Approaches. HAZARDOUS MATERIAL DISCLOSURE The existence of potentially hazardous material, which may or may not be present on the property, was not observed during the site visit, nor is there any knowledge of the existence of such materials on or in the property. Various construction materials may contain items that have been or could in the future be determined to be hazardous (toxic) or undesirable, and may need to be specifically treated or removed. For example, some properties have transformers and other electrical components contain PCB s, and asbestos is sometimes used in components such as fireproofing, heating and cooling systems, air duct insulation, spray-on and tile acoustical materials, linoleum floor tiles, roofing, drywall and plaster. There may be hazardous or undesirable metals, minerals, chemicals, hydrocarbons, and biological and/or radioactive items (including electric and magnetic fields) in the soils, water, building components, above or below-ground containers or elsewhere in areas that may or may not be accessible or noticeable. Such items may leak or otherwise be released. Real estate appraisers have no expertise in the direction or correction of hazardous or undesirable items. Expert inspections are necessary and are advised. Current or future laws may require cleanup or correction by past, present, and/or future owners and/or operators. It is the responsibility of the client to retain qualified experts to detect and correct such matters and to consult with legal counsel of their choice to determine what provisions, if any, they may wish to include in transaction documents regarding the subject property. 19

AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT DISCLOSURE The United States Congress has recently enacted the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA), which among other things is intended to make many business establishments equally accessible to persons with a variety of disabilities. The requirements of ADA may or may not require modifications to the subject property, which could include the installation of or modifications to access ramps, door widths, public restrooms, etc. State and local laws also may mandate changes to the subject improvements. Real estate appraisers are not qualified to advise the client what, if any, changes may be required now, or in the future. Owners and tenants should consult the attorneys and qualified designated professionals of their choice for information regarding these matters. Real estate appraisers also cannot determine which attorneys and/or designated professionals have expertise in this area. USPAP COMPETENCY PROVISION COMPLIANCE According to the competency provision of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), "an appraiser must properly identify the problem to be addressed and have the knowledge and experience to complete the assignment competently...". 3 This assignment involves the appraisal of a mini-storage facility and a mobile home park. The appraisers involved in this assignment have adequate knowledge and experience in the appraisal of a mobile home park and mini storage facility. The appraisers involved in this assignment have adequate knowledge and experience in the appraisal of this type of commercial property within this particular market area; therefore, no further steps were taken to comply with the competency provision of USPAP. 3 Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice; page B-4; The Appraisal Foundation, December 1990; Washington, D.C. 20

NEIGHBORHOOD DATA NEIGHBORHOOD ANALYSIS A neighborhood is generally part of a larger city, town or community. According to The Appraisal of Real Estate, 10 th edition, a neighborhood is defined as a grouping of complimentary land uses. It is usually considered to be an area with definite boundaries that exhibit fairly high degrees of homogeneity as to use, tenancy and certain other property characteristics. BOUNDARIES North: Leon County Border South: County Road 327/County Road 314 East: Interstate 45 West: County Road 336 LOCATION Northwest Leon County MAJOR THOROUGHFARES The primary thoroughfares throughout the subject neighborhood are U.S. Highway 79 and Interstate 45. ACCESSIBILITY The subject neighborhood has convenient access to employment in Jewett, Centerville, Buffalo, Mexia and various small communities scattered throughout the area. There are several major traffic routes that allow convenient travel throughout the neighborhood. The subject neighborhood is considered to have good accessibility via the above-mentioned thoroughfares. LAND USE The neighborhood is approximately 90%+ comprised of vacant land. Land use patterns currently are not anticipated to change in the near future. There is a possibility of increased population resulting from new industry in the area as discussed in the Conclusions section that follows. This could have an affect on future land use patterns. CONFORMITY The vacant land within the neighborhood is generally of good conformity. 25

ZONING The neighborhood does not have zoning. CONCLUSIONS In summary, the neighborhood is located in a rural county with vacant land being used primarily for agricultural or for recreational use. The neighborhood is also positively influenced by convenient accessibility provided by several traffic routes that extend to the immediate area and throughout the Leon County area. Major employers in the area are Nucor Steel Mill, Westmoreland Coal Mine and NRG Power Plant. Also, Twin Oaks Power Plant has had plans to expand and TXU has started construction on a new plant north of Franklin. Jewett is still in the running for a proposed coal power plant being built by FutureGen Industrial Alliance, Inc. which would be located just north of Jewett, along U.S. Highway 79. The above mentioned activity within the area should continue to increase the demand for property in Northwest Leon County. Based on surrounding property influences and recent growth trends, property values should generally remain steady in the near term. 26

SITE DATA: LAND SIZE The site consists of 7.913 acres or 344,690 square feet according to the Leon County Appraisal District. The following information relates to the site. LOCATION 100 Blackjack Street just east of County Road 337 in Jewett, Leon County, Texas BOUNDARIES North: South: East: West: Vacant Land Vacant Land Vacant Land Blackjack Street SITE CHARACTERISTICS The site is generally level and has an adequate shape to provide it good development potential. SHAPE Irregular TOPOGRAPHY Appears to be level DRAINAGE The majority of the site appears to drain adequately. No evidence of problems due to ponding or standing water was evident. STREET TYPE Blackjack Street is a narrow, dirt road connecting from County Road 337, which is a narrow two-way paved road. FRONTAGE The site has adequate frontage along the east line of Blackjack Street. 28

ACCESSIBILITY Average UTILITIES Sewer provided by the City of Jewett. Each mobile home site has a separate water and electric meter. EASEMENTS Typical utility easements no adverse known CURRENT USE Mobile Home Park and Mini Storage facility RESTRICTIONS There are no known land use restrictions imposed on the subject site. ZONING The subject is not zoned. FLOOD PLAIN The site does not appear to be situated in the 100-year flood plain according to information from the Leon County Appraisal District. The appraiser is not qualified to make a specific determination, therefore recommends that a determination be made by a qualified professional. We reserve the right to amend the appraisal if and when this documentation is provided. SOIL AND SUB-SOIL CONDITIONS A soil and subsoil survey has not been provided to this office. However, as evidenced by the surrounding and existing development on the site, the soil content appears to be adequate for most types of construction. OVERALL MARKET APPEAL The site has average visibility and access. ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS 29

No evidence of toxic or hazardous materials was viewed during the inspection. This appraisal has been prepared under the assumption that the subject property is free and clear of all toxic or hazardous waste contamination, and it is the appraiser's suggestion that the site be inspected by a qualified authority to determine whether or not the subject property is contaminated. The appraiser, however, is not qualified to test such substances or conditions. If the presence of such substances, such as asbestos, urea formaldehyde foam insulation, or other hazardous substances or environmental conditions, may affect the value of the property, the value rendered herein would be invalid. The value estimate is predicated on the assumption that there are no such conditions on or in the property or in such proximity thereto that it would cause a loss in value. No responsibility is assumed for any such conditions, or for any expertise or engineering knowledge required to discover them. ANALYSIS/CONCLUSIONS In summary, the site has average visibility and access. It has overall average developmental potential due to its size and utility availability. There are large transmission lines along the north side of the property, inhibiting the potential for expansion. 30

IMPROVEMENT DATA TYPE OF IMPROVEMENTS: The property currently has 23 Mobile Home pad sites with sewer provided by the city of Jewett and separate water and electric meters for each unit. All mobile homes are owned and maintained by the tenants. Since early 2006, the number of pad sites has been increased from 12 spaces to 23 spaces, and the gross monthly income has been increased from about $600 to $2,300. The owner also plans on increasing rents in April 2008 due to increase in demand from $100 a month to $120 a month, resulting in a gross monthly income increase to $2,760. The subject property also contains a mini storage facility with a total of 40 rentable self storage units. The storage units have been refurbished with new hardware, locks doors and paint since April 2006.

HIGHEST AND BEST USE ANALYSIS A property is an integral part of its neighborhood and cannot be treated as an entity separate and apart from its environment. The value of real property is not intrinsic, but flows into the property from surrounding forces and shares the future with the neighborhood in which it is located. Real Estate is valued in terms of its highest and best use. According to The Appraisal of Real Estate, 10 th edition, highest and best use is defined as the reasonable, probable, and legal use of vacant land or an improved property, which is physically possible, appropriately supported, financially feasible and that results in the highest value. The highest and best use of the site as if vacant may be different from the highest and best use of the improved property. This will be true when the improvement is not an appropriate use and yet makes a contribution to total property value in excess of the value of the land. The highest and best use of both land as though vacant and property as improved must meet four criteria. The highest and best use must be 1) physically possible; 2) legally permissible; 3) financially feasible; and 4) maximally productive. These criteria are usually considered sequentially. Explanations for each criteria are as follows: 1) Physically Possible Uses Many characteristics of the subject parcel such as size, shape, topography, frontage, depth, ingress, egress, and utility are factors which must be considered when estimating the possible physical uses of the site. Also included are the off-site improvements, such as public utilities, roadway maintenance, infrastructure, and all other physical aspects that might affect the uses to which a site can be developed. 2) Legally Permissible Uses Consideration is given to legally permissible uses such as deed restrictions, zoning districts, building codes, historic district controls, and environmental regulations, as they may preclude or enhance the potential highest and best use. 3) Financially Feasible Uses In determining which uses are physically possible and legally permissible, several uses are eliminated from consideration. Then the uses that meet the first two criteria are analyzed further to determine which are likely to produce an income, or return, equal to or greater than the amount needed to satisfy operating expenses, financial obligations, and capital amortization. All uses that are expected to produce a positive return are regarded as financially feasible. 33

4) Maximally Productive Uses Of the financially feasible uses, the use that produces the highest price or value is considered to be the most profitable likely utilization of a property. The opinion of such use may be based on the highest and most profitable continuous use to which the property is adapted and needed, or likely to be in demand in the reasonably near future. It should be noted that the "most profitable use" may take the form of amenities; thus, it cannot always be interpreted strictly in terms of money. The use that produces the greatest return to the property is considered to be the maximally productive use. After satisfying the four criteria of being physically possible, legally permissible, financially feasible, and maximally productive, the remaining use is considered to be the highest and best use of the property. After analyzing the data gathered in the Site Analysis, the following analysis considers the highest and best use of the subject as if vacant. In this analysis, the subject land will be considered for all uses that are physically possible, legally permissible, financially feasible, and maximally productive. Highest and Best Use of the Site (as if Vacant): 1) Physically Possible As previously explained in the report, there are no physical problems associated with topography, easements, or flood plain which would limit development of the subject property. Therefore, the possible uses of the subject tract based on physical characteristics include commercial use. 2) Legal Restrictions No legal restrictions are known to exist on the subject site. 3) Financially Feasible The surrounding properties and land uses are considered when determining feasible uses. The subject property is positioned on a major thoroughfare. Based on current market conditions, excellent visibility and access, and surrounding development trends, the potential use which would be financially feasible and provide a positive return to the land would most likely be for commercial use. 4) Maximally Productive After analyzing all four criteria for highest and best use, it is our opinion that the highest and best use of the subject property, as if vacant, is for commercial use. This represent the most feasible use considering the size, land use pattern (conformity), and convenient access near primary traffic routes the neighborhood. 34

Highest and Best Use of Improved Property As Is : In estimating the highest and best use of an improved property, the improvements which contribute to the total property value, and have an effect on its value, are considered. The subject property is improved with a mobile home park and a mini storage facility. 1) Physically Possible The physically possible uses of the property include a mobile home park and mini storage facility. The improvements conform to many of the somewhat older rural mobile home parks and mini storage facilities in terms of appearance, drive-up appeal, and condition. 2) Legally Permissible No legal restrictions are known to exist on the subject site. 3) Financially Feasible The financially feasible uses for the subject include a mobile home park and mini storage facility use. The subject property consists of an average quality constructed mini storage facility and mobile home park, and compares favorably with many of the neighboring properties in terms of construction style, appearance, and condition. Based on the surrounding properties, existing industry, and future anticipated coal plant, the proposed subject property is best suited for above stated use. 4) Maximally Productive After analyzing all four criteria for highest and best use, it is our opinion that the highest and best use of the subject property is for the above-stated mobile home park and mini storage facility use. 35

THE APPRAISAL PROCESS There are three basic approaches that may be used by appraisers in the estimation of market value. These three approaches provide market data from three different sources when all are available. One is known as the Cost Approach, which involves an estimate of reproduction cost new and of accrued depreciation as of the date of the value estimate, plus an estimate of the value of the site based upon the sales of similar or comparable sites. The second approach is the Direct Sales Comparison Approach which has as its premise a comparison of the subject property with others of similar design, utility and use, that sold in the recent past. The third approach is the Income Approach which involves translating net income which, when capitalized in a manner that in commensurate with the risk and the life expectancy of the improvements, will indicate the present value of the income stream. Normally, these three approaches will each indicate a different value. The best possible judgment must be exercised to estimate what value the ownership interests being appraised are worth under the market conditions or standards specified in the appraisal problem. That is why alternative techniques for approaching a professionally acceptable and reliable valuation conclusion are used. The appraiser, in applying the tools of analysis at his disposal to the problem in question, seeks to simulate the thought process of the most probable decision maker rather than a particular one with specified individual interests. The various approaches to valuation are merely simulations of these alternative courses of action potentially open to the decision maker. The appraiser s judgments concern the applicability of alternative tools of analysis to the facts of the problem, the data and information needed to apply these tools, and the selection of the analytical approach and data most responsive to the problem in question. Thus, depending upon the type of property appraised or the purpose of the appraisal, one approach may carry more weight or may furnish a more reliable indication of value for the subject property. In other instances, because of the inadequacy or unavailability of data, one or two of the approaches may be accorded little weight in the final value estimate. The value indications developed via the Cost Approach, Sales Comparison Approach and the Income Approach follow in subsequent sections of this report. The conclusions obtained by analyzing the property by each of the approaches utilized are then correlated into a final estimate of value. Due to the older age of the improvements the Cost Approach was not utilized in this appraisal. 36

SALES COMPARISON APPROACH TO VALUE The Sales Comparison Approach is a method of estimating market value whereby a subject property is compared with comparable properties that have sold recently. One premise of the Sales Comparison Approach is that the market will determine a price of the property being appraised in the same manner that it determines the prices of comparable, competitive properties. In this approach, the comparison is applied to the unique characteristics of real estate that cause its prices to vary. Following are the comparable improved sales utilized and conclusion via this approach. 37

IMPROVED SALES ANALYSIS Comparable Market Data Numbers 1-5 overall provided a good indication as to the subject property's estimated value via the Sales Comparison Approach. The primary difference is found in the location, construction quality, average unit size, and condition of improvements. Market Condition A market condition adjustment is utilized when there is evidence that the buyer and/or seller involved in a transaction are non-typically motivated. All the comparables were transactions that occurred under normal circumstances and transferred under typical market conditions. Location All the comparables are superior to the subject property because they are located in larger cities on major thoroughfares. Construction Quality All the comparables were considered superior in construction quality when compared to the subject property because they have concrete drives and security fencing. Average Unit Size Comparables One, Three, and four had smaller average unit sizes when compared to the subject property and therefore were adjusted upwards. Condition of Improvements The subject property was originally built in the mid 1980s but refurbished in 2006. Therefore we have estimated an effective age of 10 years. Comparables Three and Four are superior both being built in 2004. Comparable Four is inferior in condition being built in 1973. 47

INCOME APPROACH TO VALUE The Income Approach to value is predicted on the assumption that there is definite relationship between the amount of income a property will earn and its value. The gross income estimate is obtained by estimating market rental for the property. Then gross annual expenses incurred in producing this annual gross income are deducted. The expense estimate has taken into consideration provisions for anticipated expense items, and when these expenses are deducted from the gross annual income, an indication of the net annual income is produced. Following is a discussion of market rents, comparable rental data and the computation used in estimating the net annual income of the subject property. DISCUSSION OF MARKET RENT Market rent is defined as, "The rental income that a property would most probably command on the open market as indicated by current rentals being paid for comparable space as of the effective date of the appraisal." In more precise terms, however, it refers to the amount of money a property should produce based on the actual rentals being received from similar properties with like amenities in the same and/or similar location, as of the effective date of this appraisal. 60

RENTAL ANALYSIS AND GROSS INCOME ESTIMATED MOBILE HOME PARK Based upon the information available to our office, the factors reported to significantly affect the rental rate of properties of this type including building location and condition. The reported terms of the leases varied, but the majority of the leases for properties of this type are reported to have the lessees responsible for utilities. This type of lease has been assumed for our analysis. The typical unit of comparison for properties of the subject's type is rental per space per month, and as such this unit of comparison has been utilized in this analysis. The following is a description of the comparable rentals utilized in this analysis: 65

However, the data utilized is considered the best available, and is considered indicative of current market trends. The mobile home park data indicated a range of $100-$160 per space per month. The subject property has a current average lot rent of $100 but has started to charge $120 per month due to the increase in demand. Therefore we have estimated a lot rent of $120 per month. 66
