Significant to 'the appraisal and future value estimate is the Georgia Department of Transportation and Henry County Department of Transportation completion of Octagon Road (ie Frontage Road) between Country Club Drive and Jodeco Road as planned. Construction is reported to begin circa May 1999 and completion of construction circa Summer 2000. The subject 88.20 acres is planned for commercial subdivision and marketing of the remaining 73.00 acres on completion of Octagon Road. 15.20 acres are being provided for Octagon Road- right of way and open space. The subject is zoned C-2 Commercial District, and all public utilities to include sanitary sewer are available for development needs. Octagon Road length along the developable portion of the property is approximately 3100 feet. This 100 foot right of way will open the interior of the tract with 6200 +_ feet of new road frontage (east and west sides combined). The western 27.60 acres of the property will front along the east side of I-75 with 3100 +_ feet thus giving the property excellent exposure and access to the 112,000 car per day traffic count along this major north-south interstate highway. A total of 15 commercial sites ranging between one to two acres each are platted along the Octagon / I-75 right of way totaling 27.60 acres. A 15.70 acre tract is currently under contract to the Georgia Power Company for office development. The remaining 29.70 acres is found along the east side of Octagon Road, backing to three fairways of the Eagles Landing Golf course. Thus, the subject property is considered to have excellent marketing and development characteristics. Surrounding development in the Eagles Landing market can be described as rapid, particularly in the area of residential, retail commercial, and office use. The availability and supply of alternative competing undeveloped properties is considered limited at this time. Based on our investigation and analysis, it is our opinion that the Market Value of the fee simple interest of the subject property, subject to the Limiting Conditions and Assumptions contained herein, found in the present "As Is" undeveloped status, as of October 1', 1998 is: Five Million, Seven Hundred Thirty Thousand Dollars ($5,730,000) The future or prospective value of the subject property, completed per plans and specifications as submitted, subject to the Limiting Conditions and Assumptions contained herein, effective to the estimated date of completion in the Summer of 2000 is: Gross Aggregate Retail Market Value 73.00 Acres Eighteen Million, Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($18,400,000) Present Worth Discounted Cash Flow Analysis 73.00 Acres Ten Million, Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($10,200,000) Employment of the appraisers was not conditional upon the appraisers producing a specific value or a value within a given range.

LEGAL DESCRIPTION An,abbreviated legal description is provided as following. A formal legal description and boundary survey was not provided during assignment. Appraisal has relied on preliminary plat from Moore, Bass, & Bibler, Stockbridge; and Henrv County tax plats. The subject property is located in Land District 6, Land Lots 19, 20, and 46. The subject is identified further as part of tax map legal 52-1-25.20 PURPOSE AND DATE OF APPRAISAL The purpose of the appraisal has been to estimate the Market Value of the property identified as an 888.20 acre land tract in it's present "As Is" status; and "As Proposed or the Future Value on completion of the proposed I-75 frontage road, Octagon Road. The value estimate expressed herein considers October 1, 1998 as the effective date of value which is the initial date of the property inspection. The Future or Proposed Market Value is projected to the estimated date of road construction completion, Summer 2000. FUNCTION OF APPRAISAL The function of this appraisal is for internal decision making and mortgage loan underwriting. PROPERTY RIGHT APPRAISED The property right appraised is the fee simple ownership. Fee simple is an absolute fee, which is an inheritable estate and a fee without limitations to any particular class of heirs or restrictions, but subject to the limitations of eminent domain, escheat, police power and taxation. APPRAISAL DEFINITIONS Market value may be defined as follows: "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, 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: 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. 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. The source of the foregoing definitions was the "Income Property. Appraising Textbook" published by the National Association of Independent Fee Appraisers. Fee Simple ownership may be defined as an absolute ownership unencumbered by any other interest or estate subject only to the four powers of government." The four governmental powers include eminent domain, escheat, police power and taxation. Leased Fee Estate (Interest) is defined as "an ownership interest held by a landlord with the right of use and occupancy conveyed by lease to others; the rights of lessor or the leased fee owner and leased fee are specified by contract terms contained within the lease." Fee Simple Title (Interest) is defined as "a title that signifies ownership of all rights in a parcel of real property subject only to the limitations of the four powers of government." As-Is Value is defined as the actual physical, legal, economic, and political status of the property on the effective date of valuation. Fair Value is defined as "the cash price that might reasonably be anticipated in a current sale under all conditions requisite to a fair sale. A fair sale means that buyer and seller are each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and under no necessity to buy or sell_ i.e., other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The appraiser should estimate the cash price that might be received upon exposure to the open market for a reasonable time, considering the property type and local market conditions. When a current sale is unlikely i.e., when it is unlikely that the sale can be completed within 12 months-the appraiser must discount all cash flows generated by the property to obtain the estimate of fair value. These cash flows include, but are not limited to, those arising from ownership, development, operation, and the sale of the property. The discount applied shall reflect the appraiser's judgement of what a prudent, knowledgeable purchaser under no necessity to buy would be willing to pay to purchase the property in a current sale. Whenever the appraiser believes that more than one year is necessary for a fair sale of the property, the appraisal shall state and justify the estimated time and state the annual discount rate applied. THREE YEAR HISTORY OF PROPERTY The present owner (s) of record is shown as Killearn Properties Inc. of Georgia, formerly known as Atlanta Tech Center Inc. Killearn Property was owner of record for a period of time exceeding three years. The last known recorded deed is shown as Deed Book and Page 1271-142 thru 144 on the property record card, With a date indicating February 20, 1996. Other corporate name ownership is known prior to this date, transferred internally. The property which consists of 88.20 +/- undeveloped acres is part of initial Eagles Landing planned development. No other sale or transfer of the subject property within the last three years is known nor indicated in available public records. SCOPE OF THE APPRAISAL This appraisal is intended to comply with the Uniform Standards of the Professional Appraisal Practice promulgated by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation and the Guide Notes to the Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice adopted by the National Association of Independent Fee Appraisers. The standards contain binding requirements and specific guidelines that deal with procedures to be followed in developing an appraisal, analysis, or opinion. These uniform standards set the requirements to communicate the appraisers analysis, opinion, and conclusions in a manner that will be meaningful and not misleading in the marketplace. A narrative summary appraisal report on the subject property has been prepared. The subject property data such as land size, location, utilities and zoning are considered and presented in this report. Market data, including sales of similar undeveloped commercial tracts have been identified, researched, analyzed, and if applicable, presented in the report ., The data has been used to estimate the highest and best use of the subject property and to estimate the market value found as is. Market analysis was performed to include projecting absorption rates of the proposed future commercial building site acreage; and to estimate the retail market value of the individual tracts. The appraisers lack the knowledge and experience with respect to the detection and measurement of hazardous substances. Therefore, this assignment does not cover the presence or absence of such substances as discussed in the Limiting Conditions and Assumptions section. However, any visual or obviously known hazardous substances affecting the property will be reported. The documentation necessary to support our estimate of value is contained in this appraisal report; and retained in the appraisal office data base. ANTICIPATED MARKETING PERIOD The subject property consists of approximately 88.20 acres of undeveloped land in the Eagles Landing planned development. The property lies just south of Eagles Landing Parkway at Interstate Highway 75 at Exit 73; and just south of the incorporated city limits of Stockbridge. The property is described as undeveloped acreage zoned commercial C-2 that allows for a wide range of development use. The property has all public utilities available, adequate road frontage for access in it's present configuration, and is visible to interstate highway traffic reported at 112,000 cars per day at this location. The commercial and industrial market, as well as residential land market in Henry County remains very active with numerous signs of current development taking place. The subject tract is considered within this market, and as such is considered desirable to a number of prospective purchasers requiring either development land or land for speculative investment holding. In order to estimate a normal marketing period necessary to expose the property to achieve a fair sale, several assumptions are employed. These include (a) the property should be priced at a reasonable markup over market value as typically employed by sellers of similar type properties. Overpricing the property will prolong the marketing period; (b) the property should be actively exposed and aggressively marketed to potential purchasers through normal marketing channels used by sellers of similar type properties; (c) the sale should be consummated under the terms and conditions of the definition of market value required by governmental regulations set forth in the Purpose, Function, and Date of Appraisal section which preceded this section. Using these prerequisites, a marketing period of approximately one to two years should be appropriate for marketing the subject tract, As Is, if the property is competitively priced and aggressively and professionally marketed. On completion of the proposed frontage road, Octagon Road, subdivision and marketing of the tract into smaller commercial user sites would require an extended period of time in appraisers opinion. The result of our absorption analysis estimates a four year or less marketing period.

METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW Relative to the appraisal of any form of real estate, the underlying demographic and economic forces of the surrounding community should be thoroughly considered as they affect the property being appraised. Potential demand for real estate is a product of the growth and stability of its environs. For this basic reason, a brief synopsis of the Atlanta metro- politan area including Atlanta as an individual entity, is deemed an integral part of this analysis. A location map is included within this section. Atlanta is located in the northwestern portion of Georgia and is the state's capital and largest city. In 1960, the Atlanta region became the first metropolitan area in the Southeast to reach a population level of 1.0 million. The Atlanta region (nine-county area) has experienced a rapid growth in population in recent years, increasing 37% between 1960 and 1970, 26% between 1970 and 1980, and 31% between 1980 and 1990. The current population is estimated to be approximately 2.847 million and is growing at an estimated annual rate of 2.7%. Atlanta is currently ranked as the eighth largest MSA in the nation in size of population according to Sales & Marketing Management's 1995 Survey of Buying Power Demographics USA. The Atlanta Metropolitan Region has played, and will continue to play a major role in the continued growth of Georgia and Southeastern United States. It should continue to represent the major employment hub for the "Sunbelt" region. The growth is supported by the steady increase in population, the number of construction starts from residential and commercial structures, the diversification of the work force, and the constant efforts to improve the regional transportation system. Atlanta is already the center for federal government operations in the Southeast and home of the southeast regional offices of the Federal Reserve Bank, the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), and the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS). In addition, about 450 of Fortune's 500 largest industrial firms have operations in the Atlanta region, and fourteen corporations, including Coca Cola, Delta, Gold Kist Fuqua, Georgia Pacific, National Services Industries, Royal Crown, Home Depot, and Oxford Industries, are Headquartered here. Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport has played a major role in the city's growth as an international city as well as a national convention center. Atlanta, once an aging city with serious economic problems, emerged as one of the most dynamic metropolitan areas of the 1980's. The foundation of the area's rejuvenation was established during the 1970's with the construction of Hartsfield International Airport. The facility, which remains a model for other airports throughout the nation and offers direct access to most U.S. markets, has made the area particularly attractive to businesses with national operations. The airport, along with the construction of a number of world-class hotels, have made the Atlanta area one of the nation's top convention centers as well. With the addition of new, high-quality office properties, Atlanta continues 'to attract large corporations. In recent years the Atlanta area has been experiencing an expansion in the economy, setforth by the announcement of the 1996 Summer Olympics. Major relocations by companies like UPS and Holiday Inn Corporation, coupled with the recently held 1996 Summer Olympics should set the pace for economic well being within the near future. The subject is situated approximately twenty radial miles south of the Atlanta Central Business District. INSERT LOCATION MAP OF SUBJECT HENRY COUNTY OVERVIEW Location North Henry County is located approximately 12 radial miles southeast of the Atlanta Central Business District. The county encompasses 331 square miles and is one of the eighteen counties which make up the Atlanta Metropolitan Statistical Area. Neighboring counties include Clayton, DeKalb, Rockdale, Newton, Butts and Spalding. A location map is provided within this section. Municipalities There are four municipalities in Henry County. They are Hampton, Locust Grove, McDonough (the county seat), and Stockbridge. Population The 1970 population for the county was 23,724 persons. It increased to 36,309 persons in 1980 according to the U.S. Bureau of Census. This indicates a 53% growth rate for the decade. The results of the 1990 census showed a population of 58,741 for a growth rate of 62% for the most recent decade. The 1992 county population has been estimated at 63,900 by ARC. The following chart illustrates the county and municipality populations for 1970, 1980, and 1990: 1970 1980 1990 Henry County 23,724 36,309 58,741 McDonough 2,675 2,778 2,929 Stockbridge 1,561 2,103 3,359 Hampton 1,551 2,059 2,694 Locust Grove 642 1,479 1,681 Employment Henry County employment has been dominated by the manufacturing and wholesale/retail trade industries since 1970. Major employers within Henry County are NEC Home Electronics (TV & Computers), Snapper Power Equipment (farm and garden machinery), Ford Motor Company (southeastern parts warehouse) Dowling Textile Manufacturing (women's outerwear), and Southern States, Inc. (electric distributing equipment). Other nearby, major employers of Henry County residents include Danrik Ltd., Delta Airlines, Inc., International, Georgia Purchasing, J.C. Penney Company, Inc., Hercules, Inc., Mobile Oil Corporation, Lithonia Lighting, and Dundee Mills, Inc. These employers are located in neighboring counties which include Clayton, Newton, Rockdale, and Spalding. Approximately 60% of Henry County's labor force commutes to employers outside the county. Snapper Power Equipment recently made the decision to close its two out of state manufacturing plants and move them to its headquarters in McDonough. Modifications to the local plant have recently been completed. In conjunction with this decision, they have leased a new, nearby-228,400 square foot warehouse to handle warehouse and distribution activities. Also recently completed in McDonough is a new 600,000 square foot facility which houses Ford Motor Company's south-eastern parts distribution division. The facility is located in Liberty Industrial Park. The Nestle Corporation is currently constructing a warehouse and distribution center at the intersection of I-75 and Georgia Highway 155. The B K Group recently opened a facility in Technology Point at Eagle's landing. The labor force for Henry County as of December, 1994 was 32,899 persons. The unemployment rate for Henry County in December was 5.1% in comparison with 5.4% for metropolitan Atlanta, 5.8% for the State of Georgia, and 7.3% for the United States. Income There are approximately 21,900 households in Henry County. The per capita income in Henry County in 1996 was $17,341 which ranked eighth in the Atlanta Metropolitan Statistical Area. Economic and Development Trends Until recently the southern counties of the Atlanta Metropolitan Area have been viewed as a stagnant, slow- growing area. Even though, in the past, development within the southern area cannot be compared to the development and growth occurring in the northern counties (such as Gwinnett and Cobb) of the Atlanta MSA, steady growth has occurred. Past demographic and employment trends and recent, current, and future commercial, residential, and industrial growth give the area a positive outlook. In early to mid 1980's, Atlanta's southern counties began to increasingly attract the attention of northside, regional, national, and international developers and investors. The area is now referred to as the "Southern Crescent". Geographically, the Southern Crescent extends from Rockdale County to the east, to Coweta County on the west, Clayton, Henry and Fayette counties in the middle, and Spalding County to the South. Clayton, Fayette, and Henry counties constitute the heart of the Crescent. This area roughly forms the shape of a quarter-moon, lies south of I-285, and is anchored on the north by Atlanta's Hartsfield International Airport. The airport is the major economic stimulus in the area. Surrounding the subject, an important development which is influencing growth in Henry County, as well as facilitating the changing image of the southern counties in the Atlanta region, is Eagle's Landing. Eagle's Landing, formerly Atlanta Tech Center, is a 3,000 acre mixed use development of Florida-based Killearn Properties. It is located in the northeast and southeast quadrants of the I-75 and Hudson Bridge Road interchange and extends east to Georgia Highway 42. Eagles's Landing includes an 18-hole golf course, designed by Tom Fazio, which was named Best New Course in Georgia several years ago. Overlooking the 18th hole is the Eagle's Landing Country Club. This is a 51,000 square foot facility in the "Southern Traditional" style which has five dining rooms and can accommodate functions for up to 300 people. Other features of the country club include health club facilities, a swimming pool, tennis courts, and a 7,000 square foot tennis pro shop and observation deck. A sixty room hotel has recently been completed on the grounds. There are several subdivision developments surrounding the golf course as well as peripheral locations within Eagles Landing. Golf front homes are continuing to be built with values exceeding $500,000. The median price of homes is above $200,000. Windsong, located on the north side of Eagles Landing Parkway, is mid-level priced with home sales in the middle $100,000 and up. Entry level pricing is found at Parkside at Eagles Landing in the lower $100,000 range. The developers of Eagle's Landing donated a site on Tunis Road to the Henry County Board of Education for a school. Eagle's Landing High School opened in 1990 and reflects the high quality of construction found elsewhere in the development. A junior high has also been included within the campus area, and a private school, Windsong Academy, has also recently opened . Office development within the Eagle Landing area includes Eagle's Point which is a traditional style brick project of two and three-story buildings. Killearn Properties is developing Eagle's Landing Corporate Center business park which will stretch along the #1 fairway of the golf course. Henry General Hospital is located in Eagle's Landing and has recently been expanded with additional expansion now planned. Henry General Hospital is a full- service, 124-bed facility with approximately 300 doctors on staff. Adjacent to the hospital is the 14-acre Eagle's Spring Center which is primarily devoted to medical and professional office space. Crescent Pines Psychiatrist Hospital opened in 1992. One third (about 1,000 acres) of Eagle's Landing is designated as light industrial-distribution. Existing enterprises include U S A Box, BellSouth Services Materials Distribution (supply), BellSouth Services Material Disposition (salvage), Carbonic Industries ,Ply Mart, and Disco, Inc.. Group VI Corporation is developing Phase I of a 400 acre industrial park known as Technology Pointe. The first building containing 40,000 square feet, and occupied by B K Group, a cosmetics manufacturing firm, opened in 1992. There are numerous other industrial centers either proposed or currently under development throughout Henry County. These include Bethlehem Park, Greenwood Industrial Park, Hampton Industrial Park, Henry Industrial Park, Industrial Parkway District, Liberty Park for Commerce and Industry, McDonough Industrial Center, and Racetrack Road Industrial District. The more substantial developments have located in Eagle's Landing, Liberty Park for Commerce and Industry, Greenwood Industrial Park, and Technology Pointe. The completion of Interstate Highway 675 in the fall of 1987 contributed to the growth in current and proposed development for Henry County. Interstate Highway 675 is currently a nine and one-half mile highway which originates immediately south of Georgia Highway 138 along Interstate Highway 75 and intersects with the southeastern portion of Interstate Highway 285. I-675 was constructed to alleviate the increasing traffic into the Atlanta Central Business District. INSERT A NEIGHBORHOOD MAP SHOWING SUBJECT Currently there is only a moderate amount of development along Interstate Highway 675. The majority of development is located at its interchange with Highway 138/Stockbridge Road. However, there are numerous proposed developments for this stretch of interstate highway. In the coming years this area should experience increasing growth in population as well as a variety of development uses. Conclusions Henry County is experiencing the majority of its growth within the Stockbridge and McDonough areas. These two areas are well located near Interstate Highway 675, Interstate Highway 75, and numerous U.S. and Georgia highways. The county's strong infrastructure of utilities and road systems will continue to improve and can readily support the expanding industrial, residential, and retail/commercial sectors in the immediate future. The county's government is using foresight in its planning to properly ensure that the infrastructure will be adequate to permit continued growth. The county is well located near major employment centers as well as the Atlanta Hartsfield International Airport and the regional Southlake Mall. The population and income levels should continue to increase. Unemployment should continue to be low due to the increasing development in all sectors in and around the county. Henry County should continue to prosper and should contribute to and benefit from the economic success of the Southern Crescent. NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEW The subject property and it's neighborhood are located in the southern section of the metropolitan Atlanta area in the suburban community known as Stockbridge, in Henry County, approximately 10 miles southeast of Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport and approximately 20 miles south of the Atlanta Central Business District. The neighborhood surrounding the subject has to be defined and analyzed in terms of the most probable use of the property. As will be supported in the Highest and Best Use, the most probable use of the subject tract, as improved, is considered to be a planned unit development, or multiple type development use. Within this context, the neighborhood can generally be' defined as the immediate area of similar prevailing commercial, industrial, and single family residential type land uses. Neighborhood boundaries have been delineated based primarily upon transitions in dominant development characteristics and physical features such as transportation arteries. The immediate neighborhood is generally defined as that area west to Highway 42 at the end of Eagles Landing Parkway, to the east end of Hudson Bridge Road at it's intersection with Highway 351 aka Jodeco Road. Commercially, this location draws primarily residential property owners from Lake Spivey (4.0 miles west) to Eagles Landing and it's surrounding subdivisions. Development within the surrounding area is predominantly single family residential, balanced with expanding commercial, industrial, and apartment uses. Along Hudson Bridge Road (west) and Eagles Landing Parkway (east) the neighborhood is found mixed use with commercial, industrial, and multi-family. The subject is found near both medical office development in close proximity to Henry General Hospital to the east, and strip commercial development along Hudson Bridge Road, Eagles Landing Parkway, Rock Quarry Road, and Highway 42. Along the Eagles Landing thoroughfare, other commercial uses found include banks, daycare, veterinary clinic, professional offices, medical offices, motels, convenience stores, industrial parks, office parks, and free standing restaurants. As mentioned, Henry General Hospital and Eagles Landing form the focal point of the neighborhood. Thus the subject is found in a very desirable multiple use, expanding and demographically appealing neighborhood. Considering the development of the surrounding properties, and convenient access to transportation, employment, recreation centers, shopping and school properties, the subject is considered to have a viable multiple use appeal and marketability. GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS OF THE PROPERTY Location The subject is consists of a relatively large land tract located within the Eagles's Landing planned development. The general location is placed between the boundaries of Eagles Landing Parkway and Country Club Drive (north) , Interstate Highway 75 (west), Jodeco Road (south)-, and the No. 2, 3, and 4 Fairways of Eagles Landing Golf Course. The property lies immediately south of Eagles Landing Parkway at Interstate Highway 75 at Exit 73; and just south of incorporated city limits of Stockbridge. This location is placed near the southern city limits of Stockbridge, and approximately 18 radial miles south of Atlanta's Central Business District and 10 radial miles southeast of Hartsfield International Airport. Land Area The subject tract contains a total of approximately 88.20 acres. Subject site plan and general boundary survey is enclosed on following pages. On completion of the proposed frontage road (Octagon Road) ,the required right of way (100 foot width) and common/open land areas will consume 15.20 acres. This includes the undevelopable creek bottom and flood prone lands. The development land has a reported total of 73.00 acres. This is divided into several land categories for descriptive and marketing purposes as following: Georgia Power Site 15.70 Acres Golf Course Office Site 4.00 Acres Interior Octagon Road Sites 25.70 Acres I-75 / Octagon Road Sites27.60 Acres Development Land Total 73.00 Acres Area Streets Eagles Landing Parkway is presently a two lane asphalt paved 200 foot wide right of way that begins at the eastern corner of I-75 and travels approximately 1.60 miles east to it's intersection with Highway 42. Formerly known as Hudson Bridge Road, a small section near the interstate is divided four lane. At Highway 42 and to the east, the right of way of Eagles Landing Parkway has recently been extended further as an 80+ acre tract continues to develop with a traffic signal at the intersection. Plans are in progress to Widen the existing lanes as well as the bridge over I-75. Highway 42 which is located one mile to the east has a variable right of way, and is also presently a two lane asphalt paved right of way. This state highway joins the city of Stockbridge, about 2.0 miles north; with the city of McDonough found about 4.0 miles to the south. Traffic count is 10,002 cars per day on Highway 42 at Eagles Landing Parkway. Country Club Drive is located near the I-75 exit at Eagles Landing Parkway and provides direct access to the subject. This road curves and extends easterly and loops back to Eagles Landing Parkway east of the subject. This road provides the primary access to Eagles Landing subdivision, Country Club, Golf Course, and Corporate Center Business Park in the subject neighborhood. Rock Quarry Road is described as a 80 foot right of way, two lane asphalt paved. Rock Quarry Road terminates at Eagles Landing Parkway to it's south near the subject; becoming Country Club Drive south of the traffic signal controlled intersection. Rock Quarry Road proceeds north from the subject several miles into the center of Stockbridge, terminating at the south side of Highway 138/42 or North Henry Boulevard. Octagon Road is the proposed subject frontage road that will be constructed by Georgia and Henry County Department of Transportation through the Summer of 2000. On completion this road will provide 3100 feet of frontage on both sides of it's right of way, through the subject 88.20 acres. The 100 foot right of way terminates south of the subject at it's intersection with Jodeco Road, I-75 Exit 72. Traffic Counts The 1997 Department of Transportation traffic counts for I-75 along the subject's west boundary are reported as 112,004 cars per day; with 13,172 cars per day along Eagles Landing Parkway. Access, Visibility and Functional Utility Access to the subject is presently limited to the southern side of Country Club Drive, and adjoining Killearn property. Primary access will be from the completed Octagon Road. This 100 foot right of way will open the interior of the tract with 6200 + -feet of new road frontage (east and west sides combined). The western 27.60 acres of the property will front along the east side of I-75 with 3100 + - feet thus giving the property excellent exposure and access to the 112,000 car per day traffic count along this major north- south interstate highway. The functional utility of the site excellent. The land is of sufficient size to allow for a number of planned uses. In appraisers opinion, the utility of the tract is limited only by topographic considerations. Topography and Drainage The subject tract is found as essentially undeveloped acreage with a variable topography ranging from sloping and hilly to level and creek bottom. overall drainage is assumed adequate for development purposes. Considering the topographic survey of the property, the development potential of the land appears average, with individual site grading required. Flood Zone According to the Henry County Georgia FEMA Map (130468-0070 B) which is provided in this report,101-the source of abutting flood plain is found along the banks of Pates Creek that form the northern boundary line of the property. A precise acre amount in flood plain has not been provided to date, but is included in the 15.20 acres of open and road right of way. Fema panels are used to determine appropriate flood insurance rates in a given area for participation in the federal flood Area Streets Eagles Landing Parkway is presently a two lane asphalt paved 200 foot right of way that begins at the eastern corner of I-75 and travels approximately 1.60 miles east to it's intersection with Highway 42.

Utilities Utilities and services are available to the site, including water and sanitary sewer by Henry County, natural gas by Atlanta Gas Light Company, electricity by Georgia Power Company, and telephone by Southern Bell. These utilities are presently at or in close proximity to- the subject tract and it's boundary lines. Easements or Restrictions No significant or apparent adverse encroachments, or adverse title conditions were observed or are known to exist. A title report was not made available for our review, and the final value estimate of this report assumes marketable conditions exist. Environmental Conditions Our physical inspection of the subject property did not reveal any obvious significant risks due to earthquake, tornadoes, hurricane, geological risk area, asbestos, or any other physical conditions which may adversely affect the value of the property. No detrimental environmental surface or sub-surface soil conditions are known or impact study made or implied in this appraisal. Property with flood plain soils are typically subject to certain county, state, and federal level use and development restrictions. Recommend client seek advisement on these issues with parties qualified to determine development potential with respect to these conditions. See Limiting Conditions section of this report. Adjoining Land Uses The subject property is joined by the Corporate Center Business Park development found to the north, Eagles Landing Golf Course to the east, I-75 right of way to the west, and undeveloped acreage to the south. The Henry General Hospital complex and nearby Eagles Landing Country Club and Golf Course have been the focal point of development to date. Each has spun off significant development of desirable residential subdivisions, medical/professional offices and parks, as well spot and strip retail use development in the immediate neighborhood. Development Plan On completion of Octagon Road, the subject will be divided into two road frontage tracts. The eastern tract contains a total of 45.40 acres. At this time, Georgia Power Company has contracted for the purchase of a single building site containing 15.70 acres of the eastern tract. The 29.70 acres remaining have approximately 2350 feet of Octagon Road frontage. 4.00 acres joining the south side of the Georgia Power tract are estimated for upper end office use with golf course view and frontage. The remaining 25.70 acres are classified for interior commercial sites. The western tract contains 27.60 acres and has been planned for subdivision into fifteen 1.0 to 2.0 acre I-75 frontage sites. Given the Eagles Landing location and 112,000 car per day interstate traffic exposure, each is considered a prime commercial building site. Examples of this type building site is anticipated to be representative of the Mt. Zion Parkway commercial district located to the north at I-75 Exit 75A; essentially developed with national chain restaurants and motels. ASSESSMENT AND REAL ESTATE TAXES The current owner of record is Killearn Properties of Georgia Inc. The tax records were researched and reviewed for the subject tract. Current taxes are based on the 1998 mileage rate of 0.03604. The subject tax plat parcel number is indicated as 52-1-25.2 and a copy is enclosed in this section. Current tax records indicate a land area of 70.25 acres for the subject property, below the area indicated on the preliminary survey. The county tax appraisal is reported as $702,000 with a 40% assessment of $280,800. Annual taxes based on this information are estimated-at $10,120.00. No assessment change is anticipated until sales of smaller individual sites are closed. ZONING DISTRICT The subject property is found within the zoning district of Henry County. The subject is classified within the C-2 General Commercial District, and has recently been rezoned from a former residential classification of PD Planned Development with a R-2 single Family type use. The advent of the frontage road apparently allowed for a change in the highest and best use decision for this property. This particular district provides an protects a wide range of retail, office, service and wholesale establishments, and includes all those uses found in C-1. The proposed use of the subject for planned commercial development is permitted within this district. A summary of this zoning code is found below:, FRONT YARD SETBACK: 50' SIDE YARD SETBACK: 0' [30' if corner] REAR YARD SETBACK: 20' MINIMUM LOT AREA: 0.229 Acre MINIMUM LOT WIDTH:100' MAXIMUM HEIGHT: 35' INSERT MAP-SITE DATA (OFFICE, COMMERCIAL, ROADS/OPEN SPACE) INSERT FLOOD PLAIN MAP INSERT TAX PLAT MAP INSERT MAP-VIEW TOWARD SUBJECT FROM COUNTRY CLUB DRIVE, VIEW NORTH FROM JODECO ROAD AREA ALONG I75 FRONTAGE PROPERTY INSERT MAP-VEIW TO EAST ALONG COUNTRY CLUB DRIVE NEAR SUBJECT PROPERTY, VIEW TO NORTH ALONG COUNTRY CLUB DRIVE TOWARD EAGLES LANDING PARKWAY AND ROCK QUARRY ROAD INSERT MAP LOCATING SUBJECT HIGHEST AND BEST USE 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 four criteria is the highest and best use must meet are legal permissibility, physical possibility, financial feasibility, and maximum profitability. Source: The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, AIREA,2nd. Edition,ge 149. Implied in the definition is that the determination of highest and best use takes into account the contribution specific use to the community and community development goals as well as the benefits of that use to individual property owners. Hence, in certain situations of the highest and best use of land may be for parks, greenbelts, preservation, conservation, wildlife habitats, and the like. The highest and best use decision is made on four distinct levels of analysis. First, all those uses deemed physically possible are selected and gleaned to arrive at those uses which are legally permissible, generally determined by zoning regulations and/or deed restrictions. From among the legally permissible, those found to be feasible, i.e., capable of generating the greatest income stream are selected as the highest and best use. The procedural sequence can be outlined as follows: 1. Possible Use (Physical). What uses are physically possible on the subject site or in the subject improvements, given the physical characteristics revealed by property analysis?* 2. Permissible Use (Legal). , What uses are permitted under existing zoning and other land use regulations and controls and under existing deed restrictions, for the subject property?* 3. Feasible Use (Appropriate Use). Among legally permitted and physically possible uses for the subject property, which are appropriate given the characteristics revealed by market, neighborhood and property analysis? What uses produce any net return to the owner or a positive net present value?* 4. Highest and Best Use. Among appropriate or feasible uses for the subject property, which use will produce the highest present value?* Highest and Best Use must be analyzed and determined as if the property is vacant and available to be put to the highest and best use, and as improved. The reason for analyzing the highest and best use of the subject as if vacant is to define the criteria for selection of the comparable sales to be used in the valuation of the site because the sales utilized must have a highest and best use consistent with the subject. It is also used to form the basis for determining potential obsolescence if the highest and best use of the site as vacant is different from the highest and best use as improved. In determining the highest and best use of the subject site, the above tests were applied to the subject. Located off the south side of Eagles Landing Parkway and Country Club Drive, along the east side of Interstate Highway 75 within the Eagles Landing market area, the property is considered to have good visibility and accessibility. This characteristic will be significantly enhanced with the completion of the frontage road along I-75. The 88.20 acre functional shape, suitable topography, and size and availability of all public utilities, allow the property to be developed for a number of commercial uses. Therefore, the site provides f or a physical adaptable use. The subject property is a relatively large tract, found within the General Commercial C-2 District. A proposed use that would include a number of planned commercial as well as office type uses would be legal and conforming as zoned. The subject neighborhood has historically experienced Strong growth levels and a proposed use that would include a variety of commercial uses at this location should have good market acceptance. Given it's location in this commercially developing area, a number of proposed commercial uses are thought to be financially viable and there is no other known use that would provide a greater net return to the property. Therefore, a planned unit commercial and office use is considered a feasible use of the property. Based on the above considerations and after a physical inspection of the property, it is our opinion that the highest and best use of the subject property is for planned unit commercial and office type uses. THE APPRAISAL PROCESS Purpose of Section The methodology of appraisal process is critical in the valuation of real property. The development of an estimate of a real property's market value requires a methodology whereby the assignment is defined, the property is described, and the required data are identified, researched, categorized and analyzed. Estimates of value are then developed through systematic adjustment and capitalization processes under each of the three traditional approaches. These estimates are then reconciled, and a final estimate of value is rendered. These three approaches are as follows: 1. Cost Approach 2. Sales Comparison (Market) Approach 3. Income (Capitalization) Analysis The theory, reasoning and application of these approaches have been refined over the years. The appraiser believes that the Real Estate Terminology handbook, revised edition, edited by Byrl N. Boyce and published for the American Appraisal Institute and the Society of Real Estate Appraisers in 1981 by the Ballenger Publishing Company, is the best source for the definitions and bases of application. The three definitions are presented here. Cost Approach: That approach in appraisal analysis which is based on the proposition that the informed purchaser would pay no more than the cost of producing a substitute property with the same utility as the subject property. It is particularly applicable when the property being appraised involves relatively new improvements which represent the highest and best use of the land or when relatively unique or specialized improvements are located on the site and for which there exists no comparable properties on the market. Sales Comparison (Market, Approach): That approach in appraisal analysis which is based on the proposition that an informed purchaser would pay no more for a property than the cost to him of acquiring an existing property with the same utility. This approach is applicable when an active market provides sufficient quantities of reliable data which can be certified from authoritative sources. The direct sales comparison approach is relatively unreliable in an inactive Market or in estimating the value of properties for which no real comparable sales data are available. It is also questionable when sales data cannot be verified with the principals to the transactions. Income Capitalization Approach: That procedure in appraisal analysis which converts anticipated benefits (dollar income or amenities) to be derived from the ownership of property into a value estimate. The income approach is widely applied in appraising income- producing properties. Anticipated future income and/or reversions are discounted to a present worth figure through the capitalization process. APPRAISAL METHODOLOGY The valuation process is employed to develop a supportable estimate of the Market Value of the property appraised. It involves analyses of the property by utilizing specific appraisal procedures which typically include the application of one or more of the traditional appraisal approaches referenced above. One or more of these approaches is used in all estimations of value, depending on the type of property, the function of the appraisal, and the quality and quantity of data available for analysis. In this appraisal assignment, the Sales Comparison Approach will be used to estimate the Market Value of the underlying land. The Sales Comparison Approach is properly utilized when an adequate number of similar properties have been recently sold, or are currently available for sale in the subject market. The indication of value by this approach results from comparison of these transactions with adjustments made to the sales or asking price for various dissimilar elements or features which, in the appraisers opinion, would influence the value of the property. This approach is used to estimate the value of the subject found "As Is" a single large acreage tract with 88.20 acres; and to estimate the market value of the "As Proposed smaller user sites. The Income Approach is initiated by estimating the economic value for the subject smaller user sites, in the Sales Comparison Approach. The sale of the individual user sites over the term or holding period is capitalized into a present worth by an appropriate capitalization technique. Deductions holding costs are made that are comprised of marketing/closing costs, and contingencies such as taxes, as well as a deduction for entrepreneur profit and overhead to the potential investor in the property. The net proceeds from the sale of the lots are then discounted by an appropriate rate over the estimated term or absorption of the lots into the market. The Cost Approach is not used, as it is not typically applicable to the valuation of undeveloped property. The subject property is benefiting by the tremendous significance of the State and County constructed and. maintained octagon Road. All building sites have direct access to the right of way and only minor costs to the property owner are anticipated at this time. Future costs of marketing and other costs associated with the sale and subdivision of the land are reconciled in the Income Approach or Developers Analysis section of the report. SALES COMPARISON APPROACH The sales Comparison Approach, also. called the Market Approach, is the most widely used of all valuation methods, particularly in the valuation of unimproved or undeveloped land. The approach is based on the assumption that property is worth what it will sell for in the absence of undue duress, if a reasonable time is given to find a buyer. In this approach, market value is estimated by comparing the subject to similar properties that have sold recently or for which offers to purchase have been made, as well as active listings in the market area. A major premise of the Sales Comparison Approach is that the market value of a property is directly related the prices of comparable properties. Through comprehensive interviews of numerous buyers, sellers, and other real estate investors, our research has indicated that more often than not, investors will review the price per unit of comparison of nearby comparable sales, but do not attempt to quantify adjustments for differences in properties. Typically, investors or buyers will look at directly competitive properties that have sold and make generalized assumptions based on location, size, curb appeal, and topography; but this analysis is only used to test the reasonableness of their other approaches to value. More recently, however, the Sales Comparison Approach has been emphasized in purchase decisions. We have used the Sales Comparison Approach to derive a price per acre estimate of value. The elements of comparison are the characteristics of properties and transactions that cause the prices paid for real estate to vary. The appraiser considers and compares all differences between the comparable properties and the subject property that could affect value. Adjustments for dissimilarities are made to the price of each sale to make the comparable equal to the subject on the date of the appraisal. There are several common elements of comparison that should always be considered in a sales comparison analysis. Each is described as follows: Real Property Rights Conveyed: A transaction price is always predicated upon the real property interest conveyed. Many types of real estate, particularly income-producing property, are sold subject to existing leases. The revenue generating potential of a property is often fixed or limited by the terms of existing leases. In the valuation process, adjustments must be made to any limitations which may inhibit the property's ability to generate a level of net operating income constrained only by market events. As vacant, loped land, or under developed land, the property right is typically a fee simple transfer of title, not subject to a lease. Financing Terms., The transaction price of one property may differ from that of an identical property due to different financing arrangements. Estimates of market value are generally based upon an all cash basis or subject to financing terms typically available in the market. Calculations for a typical financing vary depending upon the type of financing arrangement and the market perception of the effect on value. These adjustments are commonly referred to as "cash equivalency. This adjustment is made prior to additional analysis of the sale. Conditions of Sale: These adjustments usually reflect the motivations of the buyer and the seller. When non-market conditions of sales are detected in a transaction, e.g. distressed sale, related parties, or foreclosure, the sale an be used as a comparable only after extensive investigation. The motivations of the sale must be thoroughly researched before an adjustment is made. Date of Sale: Market conditions generally change over time, but the date of an appraisal is a specific time. Therefore, past sales must be examined in light of the direction of change between the sale date of the comparable and the valuation date of the subject property. This adjustment reflects changes in value and is often called a "time adjustment". Location: An adjustment may be required when the locational characteristics of a comparable property are different from those of the subject. Adjustments for location are usually expressed as percentages that reflect the increase or decrease in value attributable to the property's location or neighborhood. Physical Characteristics: If the physical characteristics of a comparable property and the subject differ in any way, each of these dissimilarities may require comparison and adjustment to equal the attributes of the subject. Physical divergences may include size and shape of property, zoning/use, availability of utilities, topography, access and visibility. Comparable Sales Data (Undeveloped Commercial Acreage Tracts) In applying the Sales Comparison Approach, numerous land sales were identified and investigated. A total of eight transactions involving nearby area properties considered sufficiently comparable in some respect to the subject are used in this analysis. For the purposes of comparison, the transactions were analyzed in terms of price per acre. Analysis and Interpretation of Market Data A summary of the data used is presented on the following pages, and explanations of each transaction follow.

Analysis and Interpretation of Market Data (Undeveloped Commercial Acreage Tracts) Evaluation of the units of comparison is-largely based on the principle of substitution and influenced by the forces of supply and demand as well other economic externalties. Variances between the comparable properties and the subject are attributable to the previously described elements of comparison. The referenced land sales are summarized as following: SALE NO. DIST/LL ACRES $/ACRE DATE 1 6-019 6.48 $100,309 6/98 2 6-012 7.00 $121,428 5/96 3 6-014 7.65 $135,006 7/98 4 6-020 15.70 $100,000 9/98 5 6-111 34.97 $ 65,770 9/98 6 12-058 60.40 $ 49,027 5/97 7 7-243 91.16 $ 62,293 8/98 8 12-039 142.39 $ 29,705 7/98 Analysis Sales No. 1 thru No. 4 were identified from the subject's immediate Eagles Landing market area and would be the most similar for locational characteristics and market influences The subject is considerably larger in size than the four comparable land sales, and each would typically be adjusted downward for the size differential. Sales of large tracts zoned commercial are relatively infrequent, particularly in the immediate Eagles Landing market as it becomes increasing built out. An additional comparable 'ft noted at this point, though not profiled. It is a larger tract with approximately 34 acres situated at the eastern end of Eagles Landing Parkway and Highway 42. The broker, Rucker Realty indicated an offer had been placed at $63,000 for the tract. The property is undeveloped, with a multiple RM and C-2 zoning classification in a area of mixed use development. This is a relatively large tract for the market area, and provides some undocumented indication of the market direction. The location is considered inferior to the subject and would indicate some upward adjustment. Also noted was the sale of 26.03 acres of apartment zoned land adjacent to the subject, between I-75 and Rock Quarry Road, presently being cleared and developed for 224 units. The RM zoned land sold for $1,200,000 or $46,099 per acre or $5357 per unit. In addition, the developer had agreed to provide some additional contiguous land to the county for a public park area, but presently there remains some disagreement from the county park department in accepting land for the counties perpetual maintenance. The cost of providing the additional land is unknown, but would have an upward cost effect on the net purchase acre price of the developable land area. Thus, from Sales No. 1 thru No. 4; a per acre value above $60,000 is indicated, but likely below $100,000 per acre; the bench mark for smaller, similar located commercial sites. Sales No. 5 thru No. 8 were identified as recent transactions from the competing market area contiguous and situated along the I-75 corridor; both north and south of the subject. These sales were found generally more in line with the larger size of the subject; ranging from 34.97 acres to 142.39 acres. The price per acre is appreciably less for the larger tracts; indicated between $29,705 per acre to $65,770 per acre. Sale No. 5 is a very recent transaction, located at the southwest intersection of Jonesboro Road and I-75 (Exit 71). Undeveloped acreage tract purchased for short term holding for future commercial development. Discussion with party to sale indicated this intersection is targeted for major commercial development to include major retailers as Home Depot, Target, and Wal-Mart and Jonesboro Road is currently under widening program to four lanes. Somewhat smaller than the subject, the present location is considered inferior, particularly from the lack of appreciable ancillary development. Some moderate amount of upward adjustment is contemplated to this sale. Sale No. 6 is a recent transaction of a relatively large the southwest commercial tract located at intersection of Highway 138, 'Speer Road, and I-75 (Exit 75).Undeveloped acreage tract purchased for development of campus type office with a large office facility recently completed. Property topography was described as relatively hilly and sloping woodland, with some low creek areas. Considering the obscure location of this tract without the benefit of the Highway 138 access purchased separately, an upward adjustment is made to the subject. Sale No. 7 shares a very similar size to the subject with 91+ acres in the transaction. This tract is situated south of an industrial developing location, six- miles south of the subject and 1.50 miles south of I-75 at Exit 69, along the east side of Highway 155 just below Liberty Park. Lacks any I-75 visibility, although access to I-75 is good. The $62,293 per acre sale price requires upward adjustment appeal and location. Sale no. 8.is a significantly large acreage tract situated at the southeast intersection of Highway 138 and I-675 / I-75 in the City of Stockbridge. Primary access is via Davidson Parkway to Highway 138 with development plan indicating exit to Highway 42 to east. Predominate zoning is industrial, developer indicated city would permit most commercial and industrial uses on application. Undeveloped woodland and open land at purchase, some flood plain indicated toward southern end along Reeves Creek and tributaries. Development in progress with through road. This tract sets the lower limit of the market range at $29,705 per acre. Upward adjustment is considered for size, location, appeal and access. A group of notable listings not profiled were identified that aided in providing additional market data. The most similar to the subject was identified as Tract One situated north, and adjacent to the Lowes Building Supply facility at Highway 138 and I-75; located just north of the subject. This tract contains 48.0 acres with extensive frontage along the west side of Mt. Zion Road, and the east side of I-75. Owned by a foreign investment company, the tract is undeveloped, mostly level to sloping, zoned commercial with all utilities available. The property is currently priced at $165,000 per acre. The CarMax site found across I-75 from the above has sold, with 20.22 acres at $123,639/acre in February 1997. conclusion In reconciling the land sales, Sales No. 1 thru No. 4 suggest a unit or acre value below $100, 000. The larger acreage tracts, Sales No. 5 thru No. 7 indicate a value around$65,000 per acre. Current listings are appreciably higher, but remain unsold. After careful consideration of the market data as presented, it is our opinion that a reasonable estimate for the subject property is placed between $60,000 to $70,000 per acre, say $65,000 per acre. This estimate would allow for a moderate amount of waste land or flood plain, as often found in tracts of this size, ranging from 5% to 15% of the gross land area. Using the estimated value range as indicated, an overall value range is calculated as following: 88.20 Acres x $65,000 Per Acre = $5,733,000 INDICATED MARKET VALUE BY SALES COMPARISON APPROACH OF 88.20 ACRES AS UNDEVELOPED ACREAGE FIVE MILLION, SEVEN HUNDRED THIRTY THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($5,733,000) Comparable Sales Data (Developed Commercial Sites) In applying the Sales comparison Approach for the smaller individual commercial user sites, the market of Mt. Zion Parkway was identified and considered the most similar to the proposed plan for the subject property. This market is located about five miles north of the subject, fronting along the east side of I-75, just below Exit 75A.This market developed late in 1995, built out relatively fast in approximately two years for over 80% of the property. Few if any sites remain available to date. A total of thirteen ite sales were identified and analyzed in a summary format. Each was considered sufficiently comparable in some respect to the subject are used in this analysis. For the purposes of comparison, the transactions were analyzed in terms of price per acre. Individual property record card information was obtained from the tax assessors office and used in the analysis of estimating the market value and the associated absorption rate study used in the following Income Approach. Documentation is retained in the appraisers office file for review purposes. Analysis and Interpretation of Market Data A summary of the data used is presented on the following pages, and explanations of each transaction follow. A map illustrating the locations of the sales with respect to the subject is also included within this section.

The latest sales (1997-1998) indicate a significantly higher market than the initial market prices generated in 1995 when parkway began it's construction run. Significant buildout occurred rapidly, and few sites remained in latter years. Sale of the less desirable sites due to location, brought highest prices due to low supply and continuing demand toward the end of the buildout period. Adjusting for time and aligning the subject to current market conditions, an upward adjustment to the mean or average price per acre of $270,437 is reasoned and supported by the most recent Sales E and F ranging from $300,493 to $336,848 per acre. Considering the I-75 frontage sites will be available in the Summer of 2000; a per acre price of #325,000 is considered fair and reasonable. This estimate of land value is used in the calculation of the retail market value of the 27-60 acres I-75 frontage land.

Zion Parkway fronting along I-75 ranged from $196,305 per acre to $291,97C) per acre. No additional or more recent sales were available and this section has literally sold out in less than two years. The mean or average price was $240,059 per acre, with sales predominantly from the 1995 market era. Adjusting for time and market change from 1995 to 1998, a per acre price of $275,000 is considered reasonable. An interior 4.0 acre golf front-office use tract is estimated separately at $200,000 per acre. This estimate is made from two golf course office site sales at Eagles Landing in Corporate Center Business Park. Sales profiled in the report Addenda. Section. The first sale is dated to 1990 for 2.00 acres at $150,000 per acre. The second sale occurred in 1993 with 2.03 acres at $174,938 per acre. Considering the time differential to the date of road completion, a $200,000 per acre market value is again considered fair and reasonable for the 4.0 acres designated for golf view office site adjoining the 15.70 acre Georgia Power site. The 15.70 acre Georgia Power Company office site has been placed under contract at $100,000 per acre or $1,570,000. This figure is considered indicative of the subject market value and used for the purpose of this appraisal assignment. Conclusion In conclusion of the market analysis for the comparable Mt.Zion / I-75 commercial land sales, the following per acre values have been estimated for the 88.20 acres: Georgia Power Site $100,000/Acre Golf Course Office Site $200,000/Acre Interior Octagon Road Sites $275,000/Acre I-75 / Octagon Road Sites $325,000/Acre Right of Way / Open Land No market value A gross aggregate retail market value is calculated for the 73 developable and marketable acres as following: 15.70 Acres x $100,000/Acre = $1,570,000 4.00 Acres x $200,000/Acre = $ 800,000 25.70 Acres x $275,000/Acre = $7,067,500 27.60 Acres x $325,000/Acre = $8,970,000 73.00 Acres $18,407,500 Called $18,400,000 INDICATED'HARKET VALUE BY SALES COMPARISON APPROACH OF 73.00 ACRES ALONG PROPOSED FRONTAGE ROAD EIGHTEEN MILLION, FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($18,400,000) INCOME APPROACH: DEVELOPERS ANALYSIS The Developers Analysis involves protecting the potential gross income from the sale of the subject commercial acreage and sites (previous section) over a projected absorption period, making deductions for any holding costs, costs of sales, and profit and overhead to the developer or purchaser of the property. This first step yields a net revenue or sale proceeds from the timely sale of the acreage, projected during the absorption period. The interval net proceeds are discounted using an appropriate rate that considers risk and the time value of money over the period of the sales. The discounting methodology reflects the price that a prudent purchaser would be willing to pay for all commercial acreage (present worth) in order to make a reasonable profit from the resale of individual commercial sites (to builders) over a projected sell-out or absorption period. A discounted cash flow analysis of the sale of the commercial acreage is made on the following pages. The result is a discounted present value of: EAGLES LANDING I-75 PROPERTY: 73 ACRES $10,200,000 The final value estimate is based on the following criteria: (A) Gross retail sellout is from the Sales Comparison Approach. (See section of this report). Georgia Power' anchor site valued at sale contract of $100,000/acre. Balance of 57.30 acres estimated at $293,848/acre (average) based on sales analysis performed from Mt. Zion Parkway / I-75 frontage road corridor found immediately north of subject. From a conservative approach, no appreciation in land value is projected through year four of sellout period. (B) Absorption rate of 14.32 acres per annual period based on sales absorption study of the Mt. Zion Parkway / I-75 frontage road corridor found immediately north of the subject property. Summary of Sale Study attached. (C) Expenses are estimated as: (1) Marketing/Closing Costs - 8% (2) Contingency Costs - 1% (3) Profit and Overhead - 20% (D) 12.0% Discount Rate (See Attached Methodology) Discount Rate The Discount Rate represents the investor I s opinion of time value of his investment given the risks associated with the investment. This rate also reflects the appraiser's judgement about all risks which are associated with the periodic cash flows over the absorption or sales period. These risks include "Real" interest rate; estimate of the impact of inflation; estimate of the stability of the periodic cash flows; and an estimate of the liquidity risks associated with market conditions at the date of resale. In arriving at an appropriate discount rate for the proposed subject subdivision, the appraisers have considered the following: "Real" Interest Rate: 3% to 3.5% Estimate for Inflation: 4% to 5% Estimate for Security: 2% to 5% Illiquidity: 1% to 2% An overall built-up rate implies a yield rate of between 10% and 15.5%. Considering the risks associated with selling this prime commercial property and the relatively short term nature of the cash f lows, a rate near the middle of this range is considered most reasonable. Therefore, we have employed a 12. 0% discount rate in our analysis. Net sales proceeds are converted to present value based on end of period discount factors. SUMMARY MT.

Zion Parkway fronting along I-75 ranged from $196,305 per acre to$291,970 per acre. No additional more recent sales were available and this section has literally sold out in less than two years. Adjusting for time and market change from 1995 to .1998, a per acre price of $275,000 is considered reasonable. An interior 4.0 acre golf front-office use tract is estimated separately at $200,000 per acre. Significant buildout occurred rapidly as indicated by the sales array. The early 1994 sale to McDonalds Restaurant is found at the parkway entrance and a corner lot, apparently available early on in the development process. Absorption study for 1995 when supply was adequate indicated total of 12.65 acres for I-75' interior sites. I-75 frontage property analyzed previously, and separately. Conclusion In the base study period of Mt. Zion Parkway at I-75 for the sale year of 1995 when a full supply of commercial sites were still available, at total of 5.78 acres of I-75 frontage land were closed and 12.65 acres of interior land were closed for a total of 18.43 acres. The subject has a total of 73.0 developable acres, and with the deduction of the 15.70 acre Georgia Power pre- sale anchor site, 57.30 acres will remain for sale. The predominate end user of the subject sites are anticipated to be chain restaurant and motel developers, taking advantage of the pent up demand of the existing commercial, office, hospital, and residential properties surrounding the Eagles Landing community; as well as the 112,000 cars per day drive by traffic along I-75. Assuming the Eagles Landing / I-75 property can-replicate the Mt. Zion Parkway absorption and sale history; a 3*10 year sellout is indicated. From a conservative position, we have extended the sellout to 4.00 years. This would require an average yearly acreage sale figure of 14.32 acres, or about 77% of the documented figures for Mt. Zion; a reasonable assumption in our opinion. For the purpose of this report, and in estimating a yearly absorption rate for the subject property, a total of 14.32 acres is estimated for a four year marketing sellout period. As it cannot be readily or reliably determined which type tracts or sites will sell in a given order, an average price per acre is used for the entire development. This figure is derived by dividing the total gross retail market value of the remaining acres (excluding the Ga. Power tract) by 57.30 acres. The average price per acre is estimated at $293,848.

The Highest and Best Use is considered it's proposed development as a planned commercial subdivision. October 1, 1998 is considered the effective date value for the property appraisal. This estimate will carry forward for a reasonable period of time to complete development as specified; anticipated toward the Summer 2000. The property appraised "As Is", an 88.20 acre tract of undeveloped commercial land, zoned C-2 Commercial at $5,733,000. The 73.00 remaining acres found marketable as multiple smaller commercial user sites along the proposed frontage road have been valued by the two traditional approaches as $10,200,000 (Income Approach-Developers Analysis) to $18,400,000 (Market Approach-Gross Aggregate Retail Market Value). The lower end range of $10,200,000 is the present worth or bulk sale value to a single user anticipating the income stream from the resale of these commercial sites over an estimated four year sellout period. Traditionally, the most weight is given to this approach in the valuation of proposed commercial sites, and it is commonly used by lenders for acquisition and development purposes. It has been a pleasure to serve you in this matter. Please call if we can be of service in this or your other real estate appraisal matters. Sincerely, /s/ Robert Wilson, IFAS ROBERT WILSON, IFAS Ga.

The purpose of this appraisal is to provide a reasonable and documented Market Value estimate of the fee simple interest in the subject property. It is our understanding that this report will be used for internal decision making and possible development financing. Enclosed is the narrative report containing pertinent data, facts gathered, and analysis of this information. The report was prepared in conformity with subject to the requirements of the code of Professional Ethics and Standards Of Professional Practice of the Appraisal Foundation, the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice ("USPAP4') of the Appraisal Foundation, and the National Association of Independent Fee Appraisers (NAIFA). The subject of this report are Units VI and VII of Windsong Plantation, a proposed 134 lot single family residential development. The property is located off the north side of Eagles Landing Parkway, just south of the city limits of Stockbridge, and about four miles northwest of the northern city limits of McDonough, Georgia, the county seat of Henry county. Access is very convenient from I-75 at 73 located less than one mile to the west. This subdivision is a well established part of the Eagles Landing community. Previous units within this subdivision have been very successful with strong market acceptance, and very few lots remain. The homes within this development typically range between $150,000 to $200,000; and this section is expected to range moderately higher in the $175,000 to lower $200,000 bracket. To date, eleven lots have been pre-sold to the two primary builders in this development; J. P. Evans (Oxford Homes) and McMillan-llcDonald Builders. Historically, each builder has committed to a minimum of 10 lots per quarter period (20 total) and this trend is expected to continue throughout this development. Each lot has been flat priced at $32,900 in Units VI and VII and have historically sold upward of $34,000 to the same. The assignment requires two primary value estimates. The value of the subject land, "As Is", or prior to some existing development in progress, which is a 67.70 acre land tract; and "As Proposed" Unites VI and VII of Windsong Plantation, a 134 lot developed single family subdivision. Based on our investigation and analysis, it is our opinion that the Market Value (s) of the fee simple interest of the subject property, subject to the Limiting conditions and Assumptions contained herein, as of November 1, 1996 is: As IS: Existinq 67.70 Acres as Undeveloped Units VI & VII Platted for 134 Future Single Family Lots by Sales Comparison Approach $1,140,000 As Proposed: Developed with 134 Single Family Lots by Income Approach-Discounted Cash Flow Analysis $3,277,000 by Sales Comparison Approach-Gross Aggregate Retail Value $4,422,000 Employment of the appraisers was not conditional upon the appraisers producing a specific value or a value within a given range. Future employment prospects are not dependent upon the appraisers producing a specified value. Employment of the appraisers and payment if the fee is not based upon whether a loan application is approved or disapproved. We appreciate the opportunity to be of service on this property. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance to, in this or other real estate appraisal matters. Sincerely, /s/ Robert Wilson, IFAS ROBERT WILSON, IFAS Ga. Cert. Gen.

Market data, including sales of - similar large acreage tracts purchased for development, subdivision development. Costs, residential lot absorption trends and applicable discount rates were researched, analyzed, and if applicable, pr6st6hted in the report. The data has been used to estimate the highest and best use of the subject Property and to estimate the market value. The appraisers knowledge and experience with respect to the detection and measurement of hazardous substances. Therefore, this assignment does not cover the presence or absence of such substances as discussed in the Limiting Conditions and Assumptions section. However, any visual or obviously known hazardous substances affecting the property will be reported. The documentation necessary to support our estimate of value is contained in this appraisal report. Market data has been collected and 'analyzed. Comparable sales were chosen for their similar highest and best uses as outlined in this report. All sales were analyzed and compared to the subject present on their similarities and dissimilarities. The present use the subject is undeveloped land. Subdivision of the property is feasible due to its high density zoning, location, and availability of all public utilities. APPRAISAL DEFINITIONS Market Value may be defined as follows: "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, 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: 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. 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. The source of the foregoing definitions was the "Income Property Appraising Textbook" published by the National Association of Independent Fee Appraisers. Fee simple ownership may be defined as an absolute, ownership unencumbered by any other interest or estate subject on:6y to the four powers of government." The four governmental powers include eminent domain, escheat, police power and taxation. Leased Fee, Estate (Interest) is defined as "an ownership interest held by a landlord with the right of use and occupancy conveyed by lease to others; the rights of lessor or the leased fee owner and leased fee are specified by contract: terms contained within the lease." Fee Simple Title (Interest) is defined as -"a title that signifies ownership of all rights in a parcel of real property subject only to the limitations of the four powers of governmental As-Is value is defined as the actual physical, legal, economic, and political status of the property on the effective date of valuation. Pair Value is defined as "the cash price that might reasonably be anticipated in a current sale under all conditions requisite to a fair sale. A fair sale means that buyer and seller are each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and under no necessity to buy or sell-i.e., other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The appraiser should estimate the cash price that might be received upon exposure to the open mark4 f or a reasonable time, considering the property type and local market conditions. When a current sale is unlikely - i.e., when it is unlikely that the sale can be completed within 12 months-the appraiser must discount all cash flows generated by the property to obtain the estimate of fair value. These cash flows include, but are not limited too, those arising from ownership, development, operation, and the sale of the property. The discount applied shall reflect the appraiser's judgement of what a prudent, knowledgeable purchaser under no necessity to buy would be willing to pay to purchase the property in a current sale. Whenever the appraiser believes that more than one year is necessary for a fair sale of the property, the appraisal shall state and justify the estimated time and state the annual discount rate applied. RECENT SALES HISTORY The present owner (s) of record is shown as Killearn Properties Inc. of Georgia, formerly known a.4 Atlanta Tech Center Inc. Killearn Property was owner of record for a period of time exceeding three years. The last known recorded deed is shown as Deed Book and Page 1271-142 thru 144 on the property record card, with a date indicating February 20, 1996. Other corporate name ownership is known prior to this date, transferred internally. The property which consists of 67.70 undeveloped acres is part of a larger tract of land found toward the northern end of the Eagles Landing development. No oth6r transfers of the subject property are known within the last three years. COMPETENCY OP APPRAISERS With reference to qualifications of appraisers in the Addendum and a Bob Sorrells and Associates resume on file with the client, Bob Sorrells, IFAS and Robert Wilson, IFAS both have had previous appraisal experience with this type of property and are local appraisers very familiar with immediate market area. In the time period between 1992 to present,, we have performed over 175 similar residential subdivision appraisals in Henry, Clayton, Fayette, Coweta, Spalding, and South Fulton Counties for various lending institutions to include Wachovia, SouthTrust, Bank South Mortgage, Southern Crescent Bank, Tara State Bank, Bank of Coweta, Griffin Federal, Fayette County Bank, Citizens Bank and Trust Newnan Savings Bank, First State Bank, among others. ANTICIPATED MARKETING PERIOD The subject is a 67.70 acre tract of developing acreage located toward the southern end of Stockbridge city limits and just north of the northern city limits of McDonough, the county seat of Henry County. The property is currently zoned RM, a high density residential classification, has a permitted density ratio of 1.98 lots per acre, with all utilities available or within relatively close proximity. The property is contiguous to previous development in Windsong Plantation which has achieved a very successful market acceptance over the last several years. The previous development phases include the primary access boulevard, Country Club Drive and entry gates in place, as well as the subdivisions amenity package that includes a high quality pool, pool house, tennis courts and parking lot. Each contributes significantly to the subject property which must access through this pre-existing development. The subject property is found within one mile of Exit 73 at I-75 and Eagles Landing Parkway Jodeco Road, and is within walking distance to a significant amount of ancillary development to include a new Publix Shopping Center, Corporate Center Business Park, and Henry General Hospital. Acreage tracts with development potential, and particularly high density ratios, are in continuing demand, with positive interactions between buyer and seller. The subject is considered within this market, and as such is considered very desirable for it is proposed use to a number of prospective purchaser's requiring, either good development land or land for speculative holding. In order to estimate a normal marketing period necessary to expose the property to achieve, a fair sale, several assumptions are employed. These include (a) the property should be priced at a reasonable markup over market value as typically employed by sellers of similar type properties. Overpricing the property will prolong the marketing period; (b) the property should be actively exposed and aggressively marketed to potential purchasers through normal marketing channels used by sellers of similar type properties; (c) the sale should be consummated under the terms and conditions of the definition of market value required by governmental regulations set forth in the Purpose, Function, and Date of Appraisal section which preceded this section. Using these prerequisites, a marketing period of approximately twelve months or less should be appropriate if the property is competitively priced and aggressively and professionally marketed. As developed residential lots, the absorption is, discussed in the Income Section of the report. INSERT AREA MAP SHOWING SUBJECT METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW Relative to the appraisal of any form of real estate, the underlying demographic and economic forces of th4 surrounding community should be thoroughly considered as they "affect the property being appraised. Potential demand for real estate is a product of the growth and stability of its environs. For this basic reason, a brief synopsis of the Atlanta metropolitan area including Atlanta as an individual entity, is deemed an integral part of this analysis. A location map is included within this section. Atlanta is located in the northwestern portion of Georgia and is the state's capital and largest city. In 1960, the Atlanta region became the first metropolitan area in the Southeast to reach a population level of 1.0 million. The Atlanta region (nine-county area) has experienced a rapid growth in population in recent years, increasing,37% between 1960 and 1970, 26% between 1970 and 1980 and between 198.0 and 1990. The current population is estimated to be approximately 2.847 million and is growing at an estimated annual rate. Atlanta is currently, ranked as the eighth largest MSA in the nation in size of population according to sales & Marketing Management's 1995 Survey of Buying Power Demographics USA. The Atlanta Metropolitan Region has played, and will continue to play a major role in the continued growth of Georgia and Southeastern United States. It should continue to represent the major employment hub for the "Sunbelt" region. The growth is supported by the steady increase in population the number of construction starts from residential 'and commercial structures, the diversification of the work force, and the constant efforts to improve the regional transportation system. Atlanta is already the center for federal government operations in the Southeast and home of the southeast regional offices of the Federal Reserve Bank, the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), and the' Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS). In addition, about 450 of Fortune's 500 largest industrial firms have operations in the Atlanta region, and fourteen corporations, including Coca Cola, Delta, Gold Kist Fuqua, Georgia Pacific, National Services Industries, Royal Crown, Home Depot, and Oxford Industries, are headquartered here. Further Holiday Inn and UPS moved their headquarters to Atlanta in 1991. Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport played a major role in the city's growth as an international city as well as a national convention center, Atlanta, once an aging city with serious problems, emerged, as one of the most dynamic met: areas of the 1980's. The foundation of the area's rejuvenation was established during the 1970's with the construction of Hartsfield International Airport. The facility, which remains a model for other airports throughout the nation offers direct access to most U.S. markets, has made the area particularly attractive to businesses with national operations. The airport along with the construction of a number of world class hotels, have made the Atlanta area one of the nation's top convention centers as well. With the addition of new high quality office properties, Atlanta continues to attract large corporations. In recent years the Atlanta area has been experiencing an expansion in the economy, set forth by the announcement of the 1996 Summer Olympics. Major relocations by companies like UPS and Holiday Inn Corporation, coupled with the recently held 1996 Summer Olympics should set the pace for economic well being within the near future. The subject is situated approximately seventeen radial miles south of the Atlanta Central Business District. INSERT LOCATION MAP SHOWING SUBJECT HENRY COUNTY OVERVIEW Location North Henry County is located approximately 12 radial miles southeast of the Atlanta Central Business District.

Also recently completed in McDonough is a new 600,000 square foot facility which houses Ford Motor Company's south-eastern parts distribution division. The facility is located in Liberty Industrial Park. The Nestle Corporation is currently constructing a warehouse and distribution center at the intersection of I-75 and Georgia Highway 155. The B K Group recently opened a facility in Technology Point at Eagle's landing., The labor force for Henry county as of December, 1994 was 32,890 persons. The unemployment rate for Henry County in December was 5.1% in comparison with 5.4% for metropolitan Atlanta, 5.8% for the State of Georgia, and 5.3% for the United States. Income There are approximately 21,900 households in Henry County. Per capita income in Henry County in 1991 was $17 341 which ranked eighth in the Atlanta Metropolitan Statistical.Area. (Source: The Survey of Buying Power,August 24, 1992, published by Sales & Marketing Management Magazine). Economic and Development Trends Until recently the southern counties of the Atlanta Metropolitan Area have been viewed as a stagnant, slow growing area. Even though, in the past, development within the southern area cannot be compared to the development and growth occurring in the northern counties (such as Gwinnett and Cobb) of the Atlanta MSA, steady growth has occurred. Past demographic and employment trends and recent, current, and future commercial, residential, and industrial growth give the area a positive outlook. In early to mid 1980's, Atlanta's southern counties began to increasingly attract the attention of northside, regional, national, and international developers and investors. The area is now referred to as the "Southern Crescent". Geographically, the Southern Crescent extends from Rockdale County to the east, to Coweta County on the west, Clayton, Henry and Fayette counties in the middle, and Spalding County to the South. Clayton, Fayette, and Henry counties constitute the heart of the Crescent. This area roughly forms the shape of a quarter-moon, lies south of I-285, and is anchored on the north by Atlanta's Hartsfield International Airport. The airport is the major economic stimulus in the area. The subject is located within Eagles Landing an important development which is influencing growth in Henry County, as well as facilitating the changing image of the southern counties in the Atlanta region. Eagle's Landing, formerly Atlanta Tech Center, is a 3,000 acre mixed use development of Florida-based Killearn Properties. It is located in the northeast and southeast quadrants of the I-r75 and Hudson Bridge Road/Eagles Landing Parkway interchange and extends east to Georgia Highway 42. Eagles Landing includes an 18-hole golf course, designed by Tom Fazio, which was named Best New Course in Georgia several years ago. Overlooking the 18th hole is the Eagle's Landing Country Club. This is a 51,000 square foot facility in the "Southern Traditional" style which has five dining rooms and can accommodate functions for up to, 300 people. Other features of the country club include health club facilities, a swimming pool, tennis courts, and a 7,000 square foot tennis pro shop and observation deck. A sixty room hotel has recently been completed on the grounds. There are several subdivision developments surrounding the golf course as well as peripheral locations within Eagles Landing. Golf front homes are continuing to be built with values exceeding $750,000. The median price of homes is above $200,000. Windsong Plantation, the subject subdivision is located on the north side of Eagles Landing Parkway, and is considered the in the mid-level price range with home sales in the middle $100,000 and up. Entry level pricing is found at Parkside at Eagles Landing in the lower, $100,000 range. The developers of Eagle's Landing donated a site on Tunis Road to the Henry County Board of Education for a school. Eagle's Landing High School opened in 1990 and reflects the high quality of construction found elsewhere in the development. A private school, to be known as Windsong Academy, has also recently opened. Office development within the Eagle Landing area includes Eagle Is Point which is a traditional style brick project of two and three-story buildings. When complete this nine acre development will include up to buildings. This project is a development of Group VI Corporation. Killearn Properties is developing Corporate Center Business Park which will stretch along the #1 fairway of the golf course. It will eventually contain 360,000 square feet of prime office space in two-story and mid-rise buildings. Henry General Hospital is located in Eagle's Landing and has recently been expanded. Henry General Hospital is a full service, 124-bed facility with approximately 250 doctors on staff. Adjacent to the hospital is the 14-acre Eagle's Spring Center which is primarily devoted to medical and professional office space. Crescent Pines Psychiatrist Hospital opened in 1992. One- third (about 1,000 acres) of Eagle's Landing is designated as light industrial distribution. Existing enterprises include U S A Box, BellSouth Services Materials Distribution (supply), BellSouth Services Material Disposition (salvage), Carbonic Industries, Ply Mart, and Disco, Inc., Group VI Corporation is developing Phase I of a 400 acre industrial park known as Technology Pointe. The first building containing 40,000 square feet, and occupied by B K Group, a cosmetics manufacturing firm, opened in 1992. There are numerous other industrial centers either proposed or currently under development throughout Henry County. These include Bethlehem Park, Greenwood Industrial Park, Hampton Industrial Park, Henry Industrial Park, Industrial Parkway District, Liberty Park for Commerce and Industry, McDonough Industrial Center, and Racetrack Road Industrial District. The more substantial developments have located in Eagle's Landing, Liberty Park for Commerce and Industry, Greenwood Industrial Park, and Technology Pointe. The completion of Interstate Highway 675 in the fall of 1987 contributed to the growth in current and proposed development for Henry County. Interstate Highway 675 is currently a nine and one-half mile highway which originates immediately south of Georgia Highway 138 along Interstate Highway 75 and intersects with the southeastern portion of Interstate Highway 285. I-675 was constructed to alleviate the increasing traffic into the Atlanta Central Business District. Currently there is only a moderate amount of development along Interstate Highway 675. The majority of development is located at its interchange with Highway 138/Stockbridge Road. However, there are numerous proposed developments for this stretch of interstate highway. In the coming years this area should experience increasing growth in population as well as a variety of development uses. Conclusions Henry County is experiencing the majority of its growth within the Stockbridge and McDonough areas. These two areas are well located near Interstate Highway 675, Interstate Highway 75, and numerous U.S. and Georgia highways. The county's strong infrastructure of utilities and road systems will continue to improve and can readily support the expanding industrial, residential, and retail/commercial sectors in the immediate future. The county's government is using foresight in its planning to properly ensure that the infrastructure will be adequate to permit continued growth. The county is well located near major employment centers as well as the Atlanta Hartsfield International Airport and the regional Southlake Mall. The population and income levels should continue to increase. Unemployment should continue to be low due to the increasing development in all sectors in and around the county. Henry County should continue to prosper and should contribute to and benefit from the economic success of the Southern Crescent. INSERT MAP SHOWING SUBJECT NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEW The subject property and it's neighborhood are located in the south in section of the metropolitan Atlanta area in the suburban community known as Stockbridge; in Henry County, approximately 10 miles south of Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport and approximately 18 miles south of the Atlanta Central Business District. The neighborhood surrounding the subject has to be defined and analyzed in terms of the most probable use of the property. As will be supported in the Highest and Best Use, the most probable use of the subject, as improved, is considered to be a commercial use. Within this context, the neighborhood can generally be defined as the immediate area of similar prevailing commercial: type land uses. Neighborhood boundaries have been delineated based primarily upon transitions in dominant development characteristics and physical features such as transportation arteries. The immediate neighborhood is generally defined as that area west of Highway 42 at the end of Eagles Landing Parkway, to the east end of Hudson Bridge Road at it's intersection with Highway 351 aka Jodeco Road. Commercially, this location draws primarily residential property owners from Lake Spivey (2.0 miles west) to Eagles Landing and it's surrounding subdivisions. Development within the surrounding area is predominantly single family residential with institutional uses as schools and churches. Along Hudson Bridge Road (west) and Eagles Landing Parkway (east) the neighborhood is found mixed use with commercial, industrial, and multi-family'. The subject is found near both medical office development in close proximity to Henry General Hospital to the west, and strip commercial development along Hudson Bridge Road, Eagles Landing Parkway and Rock Quarry Road. Along this thoroughfare, other uses found include banks, daycare, veterinary clinic, professional offices,, medical offices, motels, convenience stores industrial parks, office parks,, and free standing restaurants. As mentioned, Henry General Hospital and Eagles Landing form the focal point of the neighborhood. Thus the subject is found in a very desirable residential and commercially expanding and demographically appealing neighborhood. Considering the development of the surrounding properties, and convenient access to transportation, employment, recreation centers, shopping and school properties, the subject is considered to have a viable residential appeal and marketability.

The property is located off the north side of Eagles Landing Parkway, just south of the city limits of Stockbridge, and about four miles northwest of the northern city limits of McDonough, Georgia, the county seat of Henry County. Access is very convenient from I-75 at 73 located less than one mile to the west. This subdivision is a well established part of the Eagles Landing community Previous , units within this subdivision have been very successful with strong market acceptance, and very few lots remain. The homes within this development typically range between $150,000 to $200,000; and this section is expected to range moderately higher in the $175,000 to lower $200,000 bracket. To date, eleven lots have been pre-sold to the two primary builders in this development; J. P. Evans (Oxford Homes) and McMillan-McDonald Builders. Historically, each builder has committed to a minimum of 10 lots per quarter period (20 total) and this trend is expected to continue throughout this development. Each lot has been flat priced at $32,900 in Units VI and VII and have historically sold upward of $34,000 to the same. The previous development phases include the primary access boulevard, Country Club Drive and entry gates in place, as well as the subdivisions amenity package that includes a high quality pool, pool house, tennis courts and parking lot. Each contributes significantly to the subject property which must access through this pre-existing development. The development plan calls for essentially extending the existing interior street of Deerwood Drive located toward the southern end of the development tract, entering Unit IV. This street progresses northerly terminating in a culdesac within Unit VII. A second entry street is cut from the north side of. Country Club Drive, with several interior streets added E6 comprise the total of 134 lots in both units. Total new street length is shown as 8200 linear feet. No subsurface soil conditions are known and are assumed to be environmentally safe. Appraisers are not qualified to make this type of assessment and recommend experienced personnel to make this determination if needed by the client. All building lots are served by public sanitary sewer system, and all lots are expected to be buildable with no loss due to poor septic fields. Except for normal underground utility easements, no above ground easements (ie high voltage) are found or known to exist on this tract that may negatively impact the marketability or development potential of this tract. The flood plain noted on the preliminary plans is confined to it's existing northern boundary with Little Cotton Creek. This creek forms an arc at this location, and a number of the lots back to the tributary. The flood plain appears minimal overall, in the range of 2% to 3% of the gross land area. On an individual lot basis, none of the lots appear significantly affected with the creek essentially forming the rear yard boundary line. Due to the relatively steep topography in the area, the homesites are found well above the crecek line. Lots backing to the creek are further identified as Lots 21 thru 47, Block G, in Units VI and VII. In conclusion, the property is, located in a popular, rapidly residentially developing area of Henry County. The property has the convenience of close access to Interstate Highway systems, all public utilities, close by shopping, schools and employment. Therefore, the development with 134 single family lots should be well received in the market place. ASSESSMENT AND REAL ESTATE TAXES The current owner of record for tax purposes is Killearn Properties Inc. of Georgia. The subject is identified as part tax parcel 50-01-28.1 a larger 122.89 acre tract. The 1996 tax valuation, assessment, and tax liability is found follows for the acreage tract. Valuation Assessment- Tax Rate Taxes Land: $491,560 $196,624 $.03604 $7806.32 Improvements: $NA - $NA $NA $NA Total: $491,560 $196,624 $.03604 $7806.32 - -Georgia assesses property at 40% of the estimated market value established by the Assessors Office. The effective tax value per acre is $4,000 FMV. This valuation appears well below realistic market value in our opinion. An proportionate value for the subject 67.70 acres is calculated at $27O,800 for the most current taxable year, with a billing estimated $4,300.49 as undeveloped acreage. Individual lots within previous units have been valued at $28,000 by the assessors office. ZONING DISTRICT The subject found within unincorporated Henry County and is subject to it's zoning authority. The property is zoned RM-high density residential development, found within a PUD or Planned Unit Development, being Eagles Landing.

The four criteria is the highest and best use 'must meet are legal permissibility, physical possibility, financial feasibility, and maximum profitability. Source: The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, AIREA, 2nd. Edition 1989, Page 149. Implied in the definition is that the determination of highest and best use takes into account the contribution specific use to the community and community development goals as well as the benefits of that use to individual property owners. Hence, in certain situations of the highest and best use of land may be for parks, greenbelts, preservation, conservation, wildlife habitats, and the like. The highest and best use decision is made on four distinct levels of analysis. First, all those uses deemed physically possible are selected and gleaned to arrive at those uses which are legally permissible, generally determined by zoning regulations and/or deed restrictions. From among the legally permissible, those found to be feasible, i.e., capable of generating the greatest income stream are selected as the highest and best use. The procedural sequence can be outlined as follows: 1. Possible Use (Physical). What uses are physically possible on the subject site or in the subject improvements, given the physical characteristics revealed by property analysis? 2. Permissible Use (Legal). What uses are permitted under existing zoning and other land use regulations and controls and under existing deed restrictions, for the subject property? 3. Feasible Use (Appropriate Use). Among legally permitted and physically possible uses for the subject property, which are appropriate given the characteristics revealed by market, neighborhood and property analysis? What uses produce any net return, to the owner or a positive net present value? 4. Highest and Best Use. Among appropriate or feasible uses for the subject property, which use will produce the highest present value? Highest and Best Use must be analyzed and determined as if the property is vacant and available to be put to the highest and best use, and as improved. The reason for analyzing the highest and best use of the subject as if vacant is to define the criteria for selection of the comparable sales to be used in the valuation of the site because, the sales utilized must have a highest and best use consistent with the subject. It is also used to form the basis for determining potential obsolescence if the highest and best use of the site as if vacant is different from the highest and best use as improved. In determining the highest and best use of the subject site, the above tests were applied to the subject. Located less than one mile east of Interstate Highway 75 with direct access via Eagles Landing Parkway and Country Club Drive, the property is considered to have very good accessibility. The size, shape, topography, availability of all public utilities, and location of the land allow the property to be developed or residential subdivision development. Therefore, the site provides for a physical adaptable use. The subject property consists of an irregular rectangular shaped tract of land zoned RM by the Henry County Zoning Authority. The proposed use as developed single family residential subdivision is legal and conforming as zoned. The subject neighborhood has historically experienced adequate growth levels and the proposed development and entry mid-level price range of the homes have shown excellent market acceptance. Given it's location in this residential developing area, the proposed use is thought to be financially viable and there is no other known use that would provide a, greater net return to the property. Based on the above considerations and after a physical inspection of the property, it is our opinion that the highest and best use of the subject property is for it's proposed use as a developed residential subdivision, as a continuing development of Windsong Plantation. THE APPRAISAL PROCESS Purpose of section The methodology of appraisal process is critical in the valuation of real property. The development of an estimate of a real property's market value requires a methodology whereby the assignment is defined, the property is described, and the required data are identified, researched, categorized and analyzed. Estimates of value are then developed through systematic adjustment and capitalization processes under each of the three traditional approaches. These estimates are then reconciled, and a final estimate of value is rendered. These three approaches are as follows: 1. Cost Approach 2. Sales Comparison (Market) Approach 3. Income (Capitalization) Analysis The theory, reasoning and application of these approaches have been refined over the years. The appraiser believes that the Real Estate Terminology handbook, revised edition, edited by Byrl N. Boyce and published for the American Appraisal Institute and the Society of Real Estate Appraisers in 1981 by the Ballenger Publishing Company, is the best source for the definitions and bases of application. The three definitions are presented here. Cost Approach: That approach in appraisal analysis which is based on the proposition that the informed purchaser would pay no more than the cost of producing a substitute property with the same utility as the subject property. It is particularly applicable when the property being appraised involves relatively new improvements which represent the highest and best use of the land or when relatively unique or specialized improvements are located on the site and for which there exists no comparable properties on the market. Sales Comparison (market Approach): That approach in appraisal analysis which is based on the proposition that an informed purchaser would pay no more for a property than the cost to him of acquiring an existing property with the same utility. This approach is applicable when an active market provides sufficient quantities of reliable data which can be certified from authoritative sources. The direct sales comparison approach is relatively unreliable in an inactive market or in, estimating the value of properties for which no real comparable sales data are available. It is also questionable when sales date cannot be verified with the principals to the transactions. Income Capitalization Approach: That procedure in appraisal analysis which converts anticipated benefits (dollar income or amenities) to be derived from the ownership of property into a value estimate. The income approach is widely applied in appraising income producing properties. Anticipated future income and/or reversions are discounted to a present worth figure through the capitalization process. APPRAISAL METHODOLOGY In this appraisal report, the Market Comparison Approach will be used to estimate the value of the subject land as undeveloped acreage as well as individual proposed building lots. The Cost Approach is performed to estimate the cost of acquiring the land developing the property according to the plans and specifications submitted. The Income Approach is used to estimate the present worth of the discounted income stream from the sale of these lots. In the Cost Approach, the cost- of developing the subject improvements is estimated with reference to the Marshall Valuation Service and data from local developers acquired over the last several years. The nationwide cost estimating service provides cost data for determining replacement costs of typical improvements found in residential subdivisions. This estimate of the replacement cost of the improvements, along the developers anticipated profit, is then added to the estimated land value for an overall property value. The Market Approach yields an estimate of value for the subject by comparing it with similar properties of the same type and, class which have sold recently or which are currently offered for sale in the same or competing areas. The sales price of these comparable properties will tend to set the range in which the value of the subject property will fall. The Market Approach is demonstrated for the subject property as an undeveloped acreage tract, and for estimating the retail value of-individual residential lots. The Income Approach is initiated by estimating the economic value for the subject lots. The sale of the individual lots over the term or holding period is capitalized into a present worth by an appropriate capitalization technique. Deductions for holding costs are made that are comprised of marketing/closing costs, and contingencies such as taxes, as well as a deduction for entrepreneur profit and overhead to the potential investor in the property. The net proceeds from the sale of the lots are then discounted by an appropriate rate over, the estimated term or absorption of the lots into the market. Personal Property: Not applicable to this assignment. SALES COMPARISON APPROACH (Undeveloped Residential Acreage) The Sales Comparison, Approach, also called the Market Approach, is the most wi7d'ely used of all valuation methods. The approach is based on the assumption that property is worth what it will sell for n the absence of undue stress if a reasonable time is given to find a buyer. Comparable sales of similar properties to that of the subject being appraised are considered and adjusted to the facts at hand. Adjustments are made for differences in such factors as time of sale, location, tract size, topography, access, utilities, marketability, lot yield, and those other reasons that cause people to utilize real estate. Acreage Validation The value of the subject land has been estimated by an analysis; of the comparable land sales in the subject area with comparable residential zoning and development potential. The land sales are analyzed on the basis of sale price per acre and sales price per undeveloped lot. The methodology is to make adjustments to the comparable sales for any difference they might five as compared to the subject site. The comparable land sales range from $13,600/Acre to $19,350/.Acre on parcels ranging from 12.24 acres to 96.64 acres on an undeveloped lot price, the range fell between $4,879/UD Lot to $6,785/UD Lot. The comparable sales and a location map are found in this section. The difference and adjustments to these comparable sales are analyzed and discussed following the individual profiled land sales. A summary of the nine land sales follows this page and includes location, Acreage, size, price per acre, price per undeveloped lot and sale odate.

Ridge developed by Homer Vincent, now deceased and remaining development by sons and family. This subdivision is located near the intersection of Jodeco Road and Blackhall. Road near the Clayton-Henry County boundary at Lake Spivey. Recent transaction to Kenneth Batson and wife. Corner lot at Columbus Drive, measures 170 feet by 222 feet. Most homes are custom built with normal resales that vary significantly, typically in high $100's to wide range of $200,000. This subdivision is located about three miles west of the subject With comparable quality homes outside the immediate Eagles Landing area market. Reconciliation A total of eight subdivision lot sales from the immediate market area were identified, researched and analyzed in comparison with the subject proposed planned lots within Windsong Plantation. Two were found with the adjoining previous units of Windsong, and five others were located just south in the Eagles Landing complex. The last sale was selected from a similar priced subdivision development located further to the west near the Lake Spivey area market,a competing area of comparable priced homes. The subject is located within a more defined middle to upper income area, with few competing subdivisions in the Henry County market. The price range of homes found within these comparables ranged between $158,000 to as high as $750,000. More valuable homes exist but have not sold recently. The ratio of lot value to overall home value has been analyzed with the comparable, lot sales. Summary of Lot Sales DIST PRICE/ LOT VALUE LOT SALE SUBDIVISION L/L LOT HOME RATIO SIZE 1 Windsong Plan 6/014 $34000 17% - 20% 0.43 2 Windsong Plan 6/014 $34000 17% - 20% 0.45 3 Village Estate 6/015 $55000 18% - 22% 0.24 4 Village Estate 6/015 $57000 18% - 22% 0.24 5 Eagles Landing 6/018 $70000 15% - 21% 0.50 6 Eagles.Landing 6/047 $45000 15% - 21% 0.58 7 Villages @ EL 6/015 $34500 17% - 22% 0.10 8 Heritage Ridge 6/040 $32000 15% - 20% 0.86 A ratio has been established in our analysis that correlates the relationship of lot value to completed home value (lot/home value ratio). The range is relatively close between 15% to 22% in the selected nearby subdivisions. The ratio is based on the lower or beginning home cost within the subdivision. From our experience, most lot to home value ratio's fall near the 18% to 22% Range. Typically, as the price range rises for homes in the development, so does the cost of the lot. Assuming a $180,000 base cost home in Windsong Plantation, generally the low end targeted for Units VI and VII, and a 19% lot ratio is found well within the overall range of pro rata home cost, and the $180,000 base price is well supported by existing home values and previous sales. Two recent sales to J.P. evans and McMillan-McDonald Builders are presented, indicating recent 1996 near this range. These are the best indicators of the subject retail lot values in our opinion. Although not closed due to development in progress, eleven lots have been pre-sold to several indivisuals and builders. Some of these have been identified as Unit VI, Lot E-13 at $32,150; Unit VII, Lots 34-G, 29 at $32,900 to McMillan; Lot 6-N to Oxford at $32,900; and two lots to an individual buyer O-8 and G-39 at $64,000 for the pair. Considering the characteristics of the subject lots, location, and price range of subdivision homes, the most reasonable estimate of retail value appears to be $33,000 as an average for the 134 lots in Units VI and VII. A Gross Aggregate Retail Market Value of the entire subdivision is calculated as following. This should not be construed as the bulk sale value to a single purchaser of the entire two unit development, but rather an aggregate total of sale volume based on present individual lot values. 134 Developed Lots x $33,000 Per Lot = $4,422,000 INDICATED VALUE BY SALES COMPARISON APPROACH (Gross Aggregate Retail Market Value) $4,422,000 INCOXE APPROACH: 6EVELOPERS ANALYSIS The Developers Analysis involves projecting tk4 potential gross income from the sale of the subject lots (previous section) over a projected absorption period, then making deductions f or any holding costs, costs of sale's and profit and overhead to the developer or purchaser of the property. This first step yields a net revenue or sale proceeds from the timely sale of the lots,, projected during the absorption period. The interval net proceeds are discounted using an appropriate rate that considers risk and the time value of money over the period of the sales. The discounting methodology reflects the price that a prudent purchaser would be willing to pay for all of the lots within each unit in order to make a reasonable profit from the resale of individual lots (to builders or individuals) over a projected sell-out or absorption period. A discounted cash flow analysis of the sale of the residential lots is made on the following pages. The result is a discounted present value of: WINDSONG PLANTATION-UNITS VI & VII $3,277,000 The final value estimate is based on the following criteria: (A) Gross retail sellout is from the Market Approach. (See section of this report). Appreciation over selling period - 4% annual. (B) Absorption rate of 20.00 Lots Per Quarter Period. Windsong Plantation has performed with 60 closed home sales between 10/95 > 8/96 or 6.00 homes per month (18/Qtr.) based on TRW-Redi Data sources. Killearn has indicated that the two primary builders, Oxford Homes (JP Evans) and McMillan- McDonald have contracted to a takedown of 10 lots each per quarter period. Further analysis of competing Henry-Clayton area subdivisions from the surrounding market with aggressive marketing and builder programs was made. Resource information provided by Subdivision Profile by-Data Book.--Inc-. (See pages following). (C) Expenses are estimated as: (1) Marketing/Closing Costs 4% (2) Contingency Costs - 1% (3) Profit and Overhead - 15% (D) 11.0% Discount Rate (See Attached Methodology) Absorption Rate Analysis The following data on construction starts to date was taken from Subdivisi_on Profile by Data Book Inc. for year end 1995 (A) and 1st Quarter 1996 (B).

The first quarter 1996 is a winter sale period and is adjusted seasonally due to typical slower starts The figures indicated. are actual construction starts in each of the developments through physical research effort of data provider. Our experience finds that higher valued subdivision developments trend toward lower absorption rates due to market share and affordability to general public. The this area of Henry County, and typically closely held by parent development company for the construction arm of company. Using each of these developments, and data retained from our experience with over 175 other subdivision appraisals in the last several years in the south metropolitan Atlanta area, we estimate an rate of 20.00 lots per quarter period allowing for an estimated sellout or buildout period of seven quarters or approximately 20 months. Quarter Period 5 calculated with remaining 14 lots. Discount: Rate The Discount Rate represents the investor's opinion of time value of his investment given the risks associated with the investment. This rate also reflects the appraiser's judgement about all risks which are associated with the periodic cash flows over the absorption or sales period. These risk include " Real" interest rate; estimate of the impact of inflation; estimate of the stability of the periodic cash flow; and an estimate of the liquidity risks associated with market conditions at the date of resale. In arriving at an appropriate discount rate for the proposed subject subdivision, the appraisers have considered the following: "Real" Interest Rate: 3% to 3.5% Estimate for Inflation: 4% to 5% Estimate for Security: 2% to 5% Illiquidity: 1% to 2% Range: 10% to 15.5% An overall built-up rate implies a yield rate of between 1-% and 15.5 %. Considering the risks associated with selling these lots in Henry Counties most popular middle to upper income level residential market, and the relatively short term nature of the cash flows, a rate near the lower end of this range is considered reasonable. Therefore, we have employed a 11.0% discount rate in our analysis. Net sales proceeds are converted to present value based on beginning of period discount factors.

The Highest and Best Use is considered it's proposed development as residential single family subdivision. November 1, 1996 is considered the effective date value for the property appraisal. This estimate will carry forward for a reasonable period of time to complete development as sp4cified. The property appraised "As Is" assuming a totally undeveloped tract of land, comprising 67.70 acres, engineered and approved for 134 single family residential lots is valued at $1,140,000. The 134 proposed lots that will be completed in a single development process comprised of Units VI and VII. The three traditional approaches indicate A range in value between $3,277,000 (Income Approach-Developers Analysis) to $3,220,000 (Cost Approach) to $4,422,000 (Market Approach Gross Aggregate Retail Lot Value) by the three approaches to value. Toward the lower end range of $3,277,000 is the present worth of the income stream from the sale of these lots. Traditionally, the most weight is given to this approach in the valuation of proposed lots, and it, is commonly used by lenders for acquisition and development purposes. This estimate approximates the single bulk sale value of-' all 134 lots to a purchaser, that would in turn resale the lots for a profit over time. This value is probably understated considering current market demand for lots in general, and the limited supply of this particular Eagles Landing type lot that cannot be readily replaced due to the more or less unique locational and ancillary development characteristics associated with it. It has been a pleasure to serve you in this matter. Please call if we can be of service in this or your other real estate appraisal matters. Sincerely, /s/ Robert Wilson, IFAS ROBERT WILSON, IFAS Ga.

Property taxes are determined by tax rates and assessment ratios which vary by location. The only realistic way to compare property taxes for different locations is to use :effective tax rates" (tax rate multiplied by assessment ratio). Effective tax rates combine city, county, school, and state tax rates into one convenient figure- the annual tax for each $1000 of property at its fair market value. This rate applies to all property: land, buildings, machinery, equipment, and inventory Property Located 1995 Effective Rate Within city $16.18 Outside city $14.43 Inventory.

Please be informed that a careful- and personal inspection was made of this site and due consideration was given to all factors and forces that influence property values at the subject location. Based upon the information that I have gathered and applied to the subject property, and upon my general experience in the field of real estate appraising, and as a result of my investigations and findings it is my considered and professional opinion that the subject property warrants a Market Value as of this date of: THREE MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($3,800,000) The attached report is the culmination of careful analysis of the subject property and the economic factors influencing its Market Value. The data reasoning utilized in arriving at this value estimate are also presented in the attached report.

Please see plats for visualization INDENTIFICATION AND PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL (CONT.) Definition of 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, 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: 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. Definition of Highest and Best Use "That reasonable and probable use that will support the highest present value, as defined, as of the effective date of the appraisal."(Real Estate Appraisal Terminology, published by the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers and the Society of Real Estate Appraisers,1975.) IDENTIFICATION AND PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL, (CONT.) Highest and Best Use of the Subject Property The highest and best use of a site is subject to the dynamics of the marketplace and thus is not defined in permanent terms but rather is a concept whereby the utility of a site evolves depending upon the character of the market as defined by the pulsating parameters of supply and demand. Thus, as one evaluates a property's highest and best use, one obviously needs to examine the specific constraints governing present and alternative uses of the property. The specific time at which the highest and best use is evaluated recognizes the market forces that ultimately create value. The American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers in their authoritative text, The Appraisal of Real Estate, 8th Edition, 1983, defines highest and best use as follows: "The reasonable and probable use that supports the highest present value, as defined, as of the date of the appraisal. Alternatively, it is said to be the use, from among reasonably probable and legal alternative uses, found to be physically possible, appropriately supported, financially feasible, and that results in the highest present land value. Obiviously, the highest and best use of a property is a determination made in subjective terms based on the appraiser's judgement and analytical skills. In layman's terms, the highest and best use is that use which will yield the owner the greatest potential benefit, generally interpreted and measured in terms of present and future income streams generated from the subject. INDENTIFICATION AND PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL, (CONT.) Highest and Best Use of the Subject Property, (cont.) Appraisal literature breaks down the analysis of highest and best use into the following four areas: 1.) physically possible uses; 2.) legally permissible uses; 3.) financially feasible uses; and 4.) maximally productive uses. Site Analysis In ascerting the highest and best use of a site, it is necessary to study the four previously mentioned factors. These are physical adaptability of the site, lagality of use, the marketability of the use, and the most profitable use. While normally the lagality of use and physical adaptability of a site is readily ascertainable rarely is the most profitable marketable use apparent. As previously mentioned, the Subject property is zoned RM. Uses permitted in this District are included in this report. See attached. This zoning could be described as favorable but somewhat limited in its utilization. Physically, all the lots have appropriate access with a minimum of 54 feet of road frontage and are large enough to allow for most uses under the current zoning. No utility problems can be anticipated. Out of the possible and permissable uses, the next step is to consider those used which will produce a positive return to the owner (i.e.feasible uses) . Given the economic growth of the neighborhood, and the propertys specific location, the subject's highest and best use is the current zoning RM with a variance. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW The City of Atlanta is considered the financial, communication, and transportation center of the southeastern region of the United States. Atlanta serves as the seat of the Fulton County government and as the capital city of the State of Georgia. Atlanta has consistently had one of the stronger economies in the United States, attributable largely to its strategic location, diversified economic base, and lack of physical and geographic barriers. The Atlanta Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) was enlarged from 15 to 18 counties in the 1980 population census. As of December 31, 1980, the population of the 15 county MSA was about 2,064,200 the 18th largest in the nation. Since that tine, the three additional counties, Coweta, Barrow and Spalding, have MSA population increases of 110,200 persons for a total 1980 MSA population of 2,174,000. By December 31, 1990 the population in the 18 county area had increased to 2,914,000. The Atlanta MSA was first enlarged in 1973 from 5 to 15 counties, making long term analysis of population trends difficult. At year end 1974 (the first full year after the expansion) the total Metro population was 1,791,400. The net growth between 1974 and 1980 was 272,800 persons or 15.2%. The population in this region is expected to increase to 3,334,000 by the year 1995, which represents a growth of14.4% from December 1990. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) The 1973 expansion of the Atlanta MSA resulted in a substantial growth in land area, from 1,728 square miles to 4,236 square miles. This was an increase of 245%. At the same time the effective buying income increased only 10.34%. The land area was expanded by an additional 806 square miles in 1981 when three counties were added to the present MSA, increasing the land area to 5,042 square miles. As of December 31,1990, Retail Sales in the Atlanta MSA were 24.2 billion, and expected to reach 30 billion by 1995. To quantify the anticipated growth of the Atlanta Metro Area, consider that the Georgia Office of Planning and Budget is predicting a population of 3.1 million by the year 2010. Georgia's population is expected to reach almost 8 million by the year 2010, a 2.9 million increase in a period of three decades. By comparison, there was only a two million increase over the past 40 years. Finance Atlanta is the heart of finance in the southeast region. In addition to being the headquarters location of the Sixth District Federal Reserve Bank, Atlanta has approximately 75 banks with more than 400 branches and total resources of 8.8 billion. Metropolitan Atlanta ranks ninth in the nation in bank clearings. There are 21 savings and loan associations with home offices in the region. Additionally, there are several foreign financial institutions located in Atlanta including, Barclays Bank International, Ltd., Swiss Credit Bank, and the French Banking Corporation. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) Employment The Atlanta MSA had a non-agricultural employment force of 1,513,200 as of July, 1994. In the five year period from December 1985 to December 1990, the total non-agricultural employment of the Atlanta Metro Area increased by 185,380 persons; this represents an increase of about 15% over the five year period. The employment mix has remained fairly stable and well-diversified. A breakdown by employment group for the 18 county Atlanta MSA as of April, 1994, was: NON-AGRICULTURAL EMPLOYMENT BY INDUSTRY IMUSTRY #EMPLOYED % of TOTAL EMPLOYED Mining 1,000 0% Construction 55,900 4% Retail Trade 268,800 17% Wholesale Trade 136,700 9% Transportation 139,900 9% Services 378,300 26% Manufacturing 184,100 12% Government 230,800 16% Real Estate 117,900 7% Totals 1,513,200 100% The current unemployment rate for the Atlanta MSA is 4.3% (down from 4.9% in July, 1991), which is lower than the State of Georgia's 5.4%, and the U.S. average of 5.8%. AREA MAP GEORGIA METRO COUNTIES METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) An evidence of Atlanta's emergence from a regional city to a national trade and business center, most of the fortune 500 top industrial firms in the nation have operations in Atlanta. Additionally, over twenty companies have chosen to located their national and/or international headquarters in Atlanta including the following firms: Coca Cola International, Coca Cola Enterprises, Georgia Gulf, Georgia Pacific, Goldkist, National Service Industries, Cxford Industries, Scientific Atlanta, Equifax, Genuine Parts, Turner Broadcasting, Delta Air Lines, Holiday Inn, Colonial Pipeline, United Parcel Services, Bank South-Wachovia, Suffrust Bank, Home Depot, Bell South, Southern Company, and Oglethorpe Power. Some of the large manufacturing earployers in this region include General Motors, Lockheed of Georgia, Western Electric - AT&T, Ford Motor Company, and Atlantic Steel. This widely diverse manufacturing base accounts for about 12% of the Atlanta area's total employment. After gaining 21,300 jobs in 1993, the area has been forecated as adding 39,000 jobs in 1995. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEV (CONT.) Industrial Market The Atlanta Industrial Market contains approximately 233 million square feet of warehouse and 14 million square feet of business space. In addition, approximately 42 million square feet of distribution space and 3 million square feet of business service space is vacant. Industrial absorption was down from 534,000 square feet in 1991 to 378,000 square feet in the second quarter of 1994. Several major reasons for Metro Atlanta's appeal as an industrial location include: moderate climate; large, comparatively inexpensive labor force; low energy cost; abundant water resources; and the city's extensive public transportation facilities. Housing The number of housing units in the Atlanta Region grew approximately 46% during the 1980's. Of the total- housing units, 7.8% were vacant in 1990, compared with 8.0% in 1989 and 6.3% in 1980. The average household in the area was 2.61 in 1990, shading a decline of 4.7% from 2.7% in 1980. In early 1994 the average apartment rented for $555. Average occupancy levels for the entire metro area ranged from 82% to 85%, down approximately 4% from late 1992. Rents increased only slightly during 1992, generally less than 1% and approximately 20 apartment foreclosures per month due mainly to low occupancies and lower than expected rents. However, the trend is upward due to apartment permits being down. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) The median house value in 1990 was $89,277 in the Atlanta MSA. The median contract rent in 1990 was $441, with 68.2% of the units renting between $350 and $749. Office Market The Atlanta office market was reported to have 84.1 million square feet existing as of December, 1991, with 19.3% overall vacancy. The office market absorbed 2.3 million square feet in 1991. There are 3.3 million square feet of office space under construction with 69% pre-leased. Carter & Associates reported that the approximate rental rates per square feet quoted were: $17.65 in all existing buildings, $20.58 in class A buildings, and $27 in buildings under construction; however,average rental rates decreased approximately $1.28 per square foot during the last twelve months. The office market forecast for 1994 includes a total of 89 million square feet of office space, approximately 20% vacant, an average rental rate of $18.00, and net absorption of 1.9 million square feet,the most since 1992. Transportation and Communication Atlanta is a transportation hub, with a busy international airport, an inner city rapid transit rail system, and an expansive highway system. Approximately 90% of the U. S. population is within three hours flying time from Hartsfield International Airport. Atlanta is considered to have an excellent transportation network. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) Convention Center Another pertinent factor should be noted regarding the economic base of Atlanta. The city is rapidly becoming known as one of the nations most important convention centers, ranking fourth nationally in annual delegate attendance. In the ten year period from 1980 to 1990, the number of conventioneers meeting in Atlanta has almost doubled increasing from one million to 1.9 million. The construction of the Georgia World Congress Center and 12 major hotels since 1973 has allowed this expansion. The World Congress Center, a trade show and convention facility, houses the largest single-level exhibition hall in the world at 650,000 square feet, which was expanded to 952,000 square feet in 1992. It contains 70 meeting rooms, a 2,000 seat auditorium (with simultaneous language-translating services), and a 33,000 square feet ballroom. The center was expanded in 1992 to a total of 2.1 million square feet. Government The local government of the City of Atlanta consists of a mayor and an aldermanic board, both having reasonably good relationships with the local business community. The majority of involved parties has the common goal of gaining for Atlanta the reputation as an international city. As stated earlier, Atlanta serves not only as the Fulton County Government seat, but as the Capital City of the State of Georgia. The city is also the regional headquarters for various federal agencies. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) Summary In summary, the basic forces which influence real estate values are currently considered to be favorable and in reasonable harmony. These forces may be separated into the following categories: population, economic, governmental, and social. The preceding paragraphs have addressed the more important elements within each category, specifically as they relate to the influences on real property values in the Atlanta Region. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, the national as well as the local economies experienced recessionary characteristics. However, based partially on current increases in occupancy levels and consumer spending, we believe the economy is beginning to show signs of recovery. It is concluded that in general these forces are currently combining to afford this area a very positive outlook with regard to anticipated levels of demand for local real estate. Having hosted the 1994 National Football League Championship "Superbowl" and the 1996 International Summer Olympic Games, the local economy has experienced short and long-term positive impact. The impact has reached almost every facit of the local economy and the perception of Altanta as an international city. Because of the anticipated continued growth in demand, the potential for the likelihood of increasing real estate values in the Altanta area and in the subject vicinity is good. HENRY COUNTY OVEWIEW Henry County has recently become the fastest growimg county in the Metro Atlanta area. Located just south of downtown Atlanta and bisected by Interstate 75, the population has increased by over 50% in the last ten years. During the last two decades, north Henry County, including Stockbridge has witnessed unimaginable growth. North Henry is, by far, the residential and retail center of the county. The population has more than doubled since 1970. Central- Henry County, including the county seat of McDonough, has also experienced growth. About 37% of the county's population is located in central Henry County. Hampton and Locust Grove are the holdouts. The growth in these two areas has been very slight. Currently, these two towns are expected to be the last in the county to develop. However, the proposed Outer Perimter Highway and the proposed second Atlanta Airport could have significant impact on their development. Henry County has a young, relatively well-educated population. The median age is just over 30 with a median house-hold income of $40,208. For the year 1989, 95% Of the potential workforce was employed. Henry County has been fortunate to receive its share of industrial Development. Japan-based NEC Technologies got the ball rolling in 1985 when they announced plans to build their first plant in Georgia. They have been followed by BellSouth Services, Carbonic Industries, Ecolab, Toppan Interamerica, Disco, and more recently, Pep Boys, Nestle, and Ford Motor Company Parts Distribution. Henry County has been very fortunate over the last ten years. Henry County has Planned and managed our remarkable growth. The balanced growth between residential, industrial and retail is expected to make Henry County the Crown Jewel of the Southern crescent for the next 20 years.

Named after Patrick Henry, the county was ceded by the Creek Indians in the Treaty of 1821. McDonough, the county seat was incorporated in 1823. Stockbridge began as a settlement in 1829. Locust Grove was named for a grove of flowering locust trees and incorporated in 1893. Hampton was named for a Confederate war hero and has a number of historical- houses and the Atlanta International Raceway. As one of Georgia's fastest growing counties, Henry County is strategically located on the southeastern side of Atlanta where 675 and 75 connect. Henry County, originally a cotton-growing county, was devastated during the Civil War. Rebuilding, the county concentrated on diversification and became independent of cotton and is now home to many industries and offices, including a major Federal Aviation Administration Facility. With quick interstate access, Henry County has developed into a bedroom community for Atlanta. Henry County has become a popular location with Hollywood directors. Movies like "Glory" and "Murder in Mississippi" were filmed in Henry County. Henry County's Atlanta Motor Speedway holds the record for the largest attendance (92,000+) at a one day, paid sporting event. Henry County's Eagles Landing Country Club is host to the LPGA golf tournament.

The neighborhood could roughly be defined as being bound by Jodeco Road to the south, the city of Stockbridge to the North, State Highway 42 to the East and Interstate 75 to the West. This area is suburban, with 65% single family residences, 5% commercial, 5% Multi, and 25% vacant. The growth rate for this area is steady with some increases in property values. The supply/demand seems to be in balance. Marketing time is considered to be four to six months with average market appeal. Overall Henry County is one of the fastest growing counties in Metro Atlanta should be able to absorb all the subject properties within two years. The subject is located in one of the nicest areas in the South-Metro. The Atlanta Tech Center, a large multi-use development surrounding the subject, dominates the neighborhood. This area is a PUD with commercial, industrial, and residential land uses. Some of the neighbors include Henry General Hospital, Publix, Bell South, Waffle House, and Ply Mart. The commercial properties are primarily located around Interstate 75. The first hotel at exit 73 is under construction. There is a Texeco and BP station also on the exit. The only fast food establishment in the area is Waffle House. However, Subway has a portion of the subject under contract and other restaurants are to follow. Neiqhborhood Data (Cont.) The industrial area is centered around the Norfolk Southern Railroad with some pockets on Highway 42. The larger industrial plants in the area are Dunlop Tire Corporation and Kelly-Springfield Tire Company. More industrial plants will follow. Eagles Landing Country Club is the main residential subdivision in the area. It is situated on a 18-hole championship golf course that is home to a LPGA event. Homes in Eagles Landing range from $200,000 to $1,250,000. Modestly priced subdivisions in the area include Windsong Plantation and Parkside at Eagels Landing. Overall, the area appears to have been well planed with the commercial industrial, and residential areas being very well defined. APPROACHES TO VALUE The Cost and Income Approaches to value were not used in this analysis. The Cost Approach to Value is based on the theory that the value of a property is the sum of the value of the land plus the reproduction cost of all the improvements less depreciation from all causes. Since the subject does not have any improvements at this time the Cost Approach is deemed unreliable. The Income Approach to Value is based on the theory that the present value of a property is equal to the present value of its future capacity to produce income including the proceeds of a sale at a future date. Due to the fact that this type of property generally does not produce any income, this approach is considered unreliable. The most readily accepted method of valuing vacant sites is the Direct Sales Comparison Approach to Value. This approach involves the analysis of sales of competitive properties. A comparison is made between the appraised property and the comparable sales which have sold within a reasonably close time frame. The essence of the Direct Sales Comparison Approach to Value is to discover what competitive properties have sold for in order to determine the market value indication of the appraised property. From the data a pattern generally emerges to indicate a value for the subject. DIRECT SALES CCHPARISON AERF@ TO VALUE A comparable analysis has been made of properties thought to be generally under similar influences. Our analysis of these sales has utilized the price per lot unit of comparison. The features influencing the value of a site such as the subject include general location, size, road frontage, availability of utilities, topography, zoning, and tine of sale. The comparable sales are located in Henry County and are considered to be under similar influences as the subject. All sales are situated within two miles of the subject and are vacant residential lots in subdivisions. Comparables are as follows: Comparable # 1 Subdivision: Lot 20 H Eagles Landing Location: same subdivision Date of Sale: 3-96 Financing: typical Number of Lots: one Total Price: $100,000 Average per Lot: $100,000 Utilities: elec., water, sewer Streets: public, paved, curbs, storm sewer Size: 3/4 acre Comments: golf lot DIRECT SALES COMPARISON APPROACH TO VALUE (CONT.)

Correlation of Values The lot prices seem to vary even with all the comparables being golf lots. The developer stated they have sold about 50% of all golf lots in the $125,000 range and 40% of all golf lots in the $105,000 range with the remaining 10% being sold in the $90,000 range. Based on the comparables and the lots under contract, the expected sales are as follows: 8 lots @ $ 89,900 = $ 719,200 15 lots @ $106,000 = $1,590,000 17 lots @ $129,900 = $2,208,300 FINAL RECONCILIATION Cash Sellout Having derived the retail- lot prices and projected absorption (1.71 per month), the next step is to determine deductions from the gross retail proceeds. These deductions include marketing costs, holding costs (taxes), and entrepreneurial or investor's profit. Marketing costs include sales commissions and advertising. We have projected this category at 5% of gross sales. With a development of this size, the holding costs are $150 per lot, per year. Entrepreneurial profit represents the return required to induce an investor to undertake the risk associated with acquiring the unsold lots and marketing lots over the projected sellout period. Our research indicates that entrepreneurial profit needs no deduction. The typical investor buys the lots to make money on the improvements. Deducting the marketing costs, holding costs, and investors profit results in periodic net revenues. To arrive at a value indication, these periodic net revenues must be discounted to present value. The discount rate selected should reflect the risk incurred by the investor during the sellout period. The discount rate can be viewed as the sum of the rate earned on a "safe, investment such as a treasury bill or certificate of deposit, plus a premium to account for risk. Currently, treasury bills and certificates of deposit yeild between 4% and 5%. As there is some economic uncertainty at present, we have considered a 5% risk premium appropriate, yeilding a range of between 9% & 10%. We have concluded that a 10% rate reasonable reflects the market for the subject property. The discount rate has been applied on a future value basis. That is the net present value of the future proceeds. We have project a two year sellout period which is an asorption rate of 1-71 per month. Total lot sales are estimated at $4,517,500. gross Proceeds = $4,517,500 Expenses And Profit. sales commission/marketing expense @ 5% x lot values $225,875 taxes $250 per lot x 36 x lst year sell out $ 9,000 taxes $250 per lot x 18 x 2nd year sell out $ 4,500 Gross Receipts $4,517,500 -$ 225,875 -$ 13,500 Net Value $4,278,125 The market should be able to absorb all 41 lots in 2.0 years. The discount rate is 10% for a 2.0 year period. The present value of the proposed lots is $3,800,809.00. We estimate the 41 lot subdivisions to have a present value of: $3,800,000 THREE MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLIARS INSERT MAP OF SUBJECT ZONING (5) Minimum rear yard 40 feet (6) Maximum height 75 feet Sec. 3-7-157 . PD: planned development district. (a) Purpose. It is the purpose of the planned development district to encourage the development of compatible land used within the frame work of a master development plan for residential and nonresidential land used within an environmentally compatible setting. The PD district is designed to be appended to residential, commercial or industrial zoning districts to provide flexibility in the application of development standards and site design when approved according to a master development plan in a manner to promote the conservation of natural environment, more efficient use of land, and efficiency in the extension of streets and utilities.

Further neither all nor any part of this appraisal report shall be disseminated to the general public by the use of advertising media or other media for public communication without the prior written consent of the signatories of this appraisal report. 9. No responsibility is assumed for engineering matters, neither structural or mechanical. Good structure and mechanical conditions are assumed to exist, and no opinion as to these matters is to be inferred or construed from the attached report. 10. The value, estimate applies only to the entire property, and cannot be prorated to individual portions or fractional interests. Any proration or division of interest will invalidate the value estimate, unless such proration or division of interests is set forth in this report. 11. The forecasts or projections included in this report are utilized to assist in the valuation process. They are based on current market conditions, current short-term supply and demand factors, and continued stable economy. These forecasts are, therefore, subject to changes in future conditions which cannot be accurately predicted by the appraiser, and these changes could affect the future income and/or value estimates. 12. In this appraisal assignment the existence of potentially hazardous material such as asbestos, urea formaldehyde foam insulation, radon gas, or or any other toxic material, has not been considered. The appraiser is not qualified to detect such substances and, if desired, recommend that the client retain an expert in this field. 13. It is assumed that all utilities are available to the subject property, and that no undue expense wi11 be incurred in providing them to the site. IDENTIFICATION AND PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL, (CONT.) Highest and Best Use of the Subject Property (cont.) Appraisal literature breaks down the analysis of highest and best use into the following four areas: 1.) physically possible uses; 2.) legally permissible uses; 3.) financially feasible uses; and 4.) maximally productive uses. Site Analysis In ascerting the highest and best use of a site, it is necessary to study the four previously mentioned factors. These are physical adaptability of the site, lagality of use, the marketability of the use, and the most profitable use. While normally the lagality of use and physical adapt- ability of a site is readily ascertainable, rarely is the most profit- able marketable use apparent. As previously mentioned, the Subject property is zoned RM. Uses permitted in this District are included in this report. See attached. This zoning could be described as favorable but somewhat limited in its utilization. Physically, all the lots have appropriate access with a minimum of 40 feet of road frontage and are large enough to allow for most uses under the current zoning. No utility problems can be anticipated. Out of the possible and permissable uses, the next step is to consider those used which will produce a positive return to the owner (i.e. feasible uses). Given the economic growth of the neighborhood, and the propertys specific location, the subject's highest and best use is the current zoning Residential ... RM (Planned Development District). IDENTIFICATION AND PURPOSE OF APPRAISAL (CONT.) Topography All lots are considered buildable with average topography and terrain. Land is considered rolling. Flood Data According to FEMA Maps dated November 2, 1983 no portion of subject is in a flood area. It does not appear that any lots are affected by water. Flood panel number 130468 0070B. See attached copies of Flood Map and Survey. Census Tract 701.03 Purpose and Conditions of Appraisal The appraisal is made at the request of Mr. Burt Blackmon, First Community Bank, McDonough, GA, for the purpose of estimating, the market value of the subject property. The undersigned assumes: 1. there are no adverse easements, encroachments or other conditions that would adversely affect the marketabililty of this property. 2 that all lots which will have sept3-c tanks are so approved by county. 3 that the final plat will receive county approval. In addition, we have not examined any engineering studies done on the site however, in lieu of any contradicting evidence, it is assumed that the sites have adequate drainage capabilities and load bearing qualities. Typical Lot The typical lot measures 100 feet by 148 feet and has 15,000 s.f. All lots can be visualized with the plat attached to this report. IDENTIFICATION AND PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL, (CONT.) Highest and Best Use of the Subject Property The highest and best use of a site is subject to the dynamics of the marketplace and thus is not defined in permanent terms but rather is a concept whereby the utility of a site evolves depending upon the character of the market as defined by the pulsating parameters of supply and demand. Thus, as one evaluates a property's highest and best use, one obviously needs to examine the specific constraints governing present and alternative uses of the property. The specific time at which the highest and best use is evaluated recognizes the market forces that ultimately create value. The American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers in their authoritative text, The Appraisal of Real Estate, 8th Edition, 1983, defines highest and best use as follows: "The reasonable and probable use that supports the highest present value, as defined, as of the date of the appraisal. Alternatively, it is said to be the use, from among reasonably probable and legal alternative uses, found to be physically possible, appropriately supported, financially feasible, and that results in the highest present land value. Obviously, the highest and best use of a property is a determination made in subjective terms based on the appraiser's judgement and analytical skills. In layman's terms, the highest and best use is that use which will yield the owner the greatest potential benefit, generally interpreted and measured in term of present and future income streams generated from the subject. IDENTIFICATION AND PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL, (CONT.) Definition of 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, 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: 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. Definition of Highest and Best Use That reasonable and probable use that will support the highest present value, as defined, as of the effective date of the appraisal.

The sales approach to value is as follows: 56 lots at $34,000 each = $1,904,000 Attached: Subject Site and Street Scene METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) The 1973 expansion of the Atlanta NSA resulted in a substantial growth in land area, from 1,728 square miles to 4,236 square miles. This was an increase of 245%. At the same time the effective buying income increased only 10.34%. The 1and area was expanded by an additional 806 square miles in 1981 when three counties were added to the present MSA, increasing the 1and area to 5,042 square miles. As of December 31, 1990, Retail- Sales in the Atlanta MSA were 24.2 billion, and expected to reach 30 billion by 1995. To quantify the anticipated growth of the Atlanta Metro Area, consider that the Georgia Office of Planning and Budget is predicting a population of 3.1 million by the year 2010. Georgia's population is expected to reach almost 8 million by the year 2010, a 2.9 million increase in a period of three decades. By comparison, there was only a two million increase over the past 40 years. Finance Atlanta is the heart of finance in the southeast region. In addition to being the headquarters location of the Sixth District Federal Reserve Bank, Atlanta has approximately 75 banks with more than 400 branches and total resources of 8.8 bi11ion. Metropolitan Atlanta ranks ninth in the nation in bank clearings. There are 21 savings and loan associations with home offices in the region. Additionally, there are several foreign financial institutions located in Atlanta including, Barclays Bank International, Ltd., Swiss Credit Bank, and the French Banking Corporation. (Attached Area Map) METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW The City of Atlanta is considered the financial, communication, and transportation center of the southeastern region of the United States. Atlanta serves as the seat of the Fulton County government and as the capital city of the State of Georgia. Atlanta has consistently had one of the stronger economies in the United States, attributable largely to its strategic location, diversified economic base and lack of physical and geographic barriers. The Atlanta Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) was enlarged from 15 to 18 counties in the 1980 population census. As of December 31, 1980, the population of the 15 county MSA was about 2,064,200 the 18th largest in the nation. Since that time, the three additional counties, Coweta, Barrow and Spalding, have MSA population increases of 110,200 persons for a total 1980 MSA population of 2,174,000. By December 31, 1990 the population in the 18 county area had increased to 2,914,000. The Atlanta MSA was first enlarged in 1973 from 5 to 15 counties, making long-term analysis of population trends difficult. At year end 1974 (the first full year after the expansion) the total Metro population was 1,791,400. The net growth between 1974 and 1980 was 272,800 persons or 15.2%...The population in this region is expected to increase to 3,334,OOO by the year 1995, which represents a growth of 14.4% from December 1990. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) Employment The Atlanta MSA, had a non-agricultural employment force of 1,513,200 as of July, 1994. In the five year period from December 1985 to December, 1990, the total non-agricultural employment of the Atlanta Metro Area increased by 185,380 persons; this represents an increase of about 15% over the five year period. The employment mix has remained fairly stable and well-diversified. A breakdown by employment group for the 18 county Atlanta MSA as of April, 1994, was: NON-AGRICULTURAL EMPLOYMENT BY INDUSTRY INDUSTRY # EMPLOYED % of TOTAL EMPLOYED Mining 1,000 0% Construction 55,900 4% Retail Trade 268,800 17% Wholesale Trade 136,700 9% Transportation 139,9OO 9% Services 378,300 26% Manufacturing 184,100 12% Government 23O,8OO 16% Real Estate 117,900 7% Totals 1,513,200 100% The current unemployment rate for the Atlanta MSA is 4.3% ( down from 4.9% in July, 1991), which is lower than the State of Georgia's 5.4%, and the U.S. average of 5.8%. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) An evidence of Atlanta' s emergence from a regional city to a national trade and business center, most of the fortune 500 top industrial firms in the nation have operations in Atlanta. Additionally, over twenty companies have chosen to located their national and/or international headquarters in Atlanta including the following firms ....... Coca Cola International, Coca Cola Enterprises, Georgia Gulf, Georgia Pacific, Goldkist, National Service Industries, Oxford Industries, Scientific Atlanta, Equifax, Genuine Parts, Turner Broadcasting, Delta Air Lines, Holiday Inn, Colonial Pipeline, United Parcel Services, Bank South-Wachovia, SunTrust Bank, Home Depot, Bell South, Southern Company, and Oglethorpe Power. Some of the large manufacturing employers in this region include General Motors, Lockheed of Georgia, Western Electric - AT&T, Ford Motor Company, and Atlantic Steel. This widely diverse manufacturing base accounts for about 12% of the Atlanta area's total employment. After gaining 21,300 jobs in 1993,'the area has been forecated as adding 39,000 jobs in 1995. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) Industrial Market The Atlanta Industrial Market contains approximately 233 million square feet of warehouse and 14 million square feet of business space. In addition, approximately 42 million square feet of distribution space and 3 million square feet of business service space is vacant. Industrial absorption was down from 534,000 square feet in 1991 to 378,000 square feet in the second quarter of 1994. Several major reasons for Metro Atlanta's appeal as an industrial location include: moderate climate; large, comparatively inexpensive labor force; low energy cost; abundant water resources; and the city's extensive public transportation facilities. Housing The number of housing units in the Atlanta Region grew approximately 46% during the 1980's. Of the tota1 housing units, 7.8% were vacant in 1990, compared with 8.0% in 1989 and 6.3% in 1980. The average household in the area was 2.61 in 1990, showing a decline of 4.7% from 2.7% in 1980. In early 1994 the average apartment rented for $555. Average occupancy levels for the entire metro area ranged from 82% to 85%, down approximately 4% from late 1992. Rents increased only slightly during 1992, generally less than 1% and approximately 20 apartment foreclosures per month due mainly to low occupancies and lower than expected rents. However, the trend is upward due to apartment permits being down. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) The median house value in 1990 was $89,277 in the Atlanta MSA. The median contract rent in 1990 was $441, with 68.2% of the units renting between $350 and $749. Office Market The Atlanta office market was reported to have 84.1 million square feet existing as of December, 1991, with 19.3% overall vacancy. The office market absorbed 2.3 million square feet in 1991. There are 3.3 million square feet of office space under construction with 69% pre-leased. Carter & Associates reported that the approximate rental rates per square feet quoted were: $17.65 in all existing buildings, $20.58 in class A buildings, and $27 in buildings under construction; however, average rental rates decreased approximately $1.28 per square foot during the last twelve months. The office market forecast for 1994 includes a total of 89 million square feet of office space, approximately 20% vacant, an average rental rate of $18.00, and net absorption of 1.9 million square feet, the most since 1992. Transportation and Communication Atlanta is a transportation hub, with a busy international airport, an inner city rapid transit rail system, and an expansive highway system. Approximately 90% of the U.S. population is within three hours flying time from Hartsfield International Airport. Atlanta is considered to have an excellent transportation network. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) Convention Center Another pertinent factor should be noted regarding the economic base of Atlanta. The city is rapidly becoming known as one of the nations most important convention centers, ranking fourth nationally in annual delegate attendance. In the ten year period from 1980 to 1990, the number of conventioneers meeting in Atlanta has almost doubled increasing from one million to 1.9 million. The construction of the Georgia World Congress Center and 12 major hotels since 1973 has allowed this expansion. The World Congress Center, a trade show and convention facility, houses the largest single-level exhibition hall in the world at 650,000 square feet, which was expanded to 952,000 square feet in 1992. It contains 70 meeting rooms, a 2,000 seat auditorium (with simultaneous language-translating services), and a 33,000 square feet ballroom. The center was expanded in 1992 to a total of 2.1 million square feet. Government The local government of the City of Atlanta consists of a mayor and an aldermanic board, both having reasonably good relationships with the local business community. The majority of involved parties has the common goal of gaining for Atlanta the reputation as an international city. As stated earlier, Atlanta serves not only as the Fulton County Government seat, but as the Capital City of the State of Georgia. The city is also the regional headquarters for various federal agencies. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) Summarv In summary, the basic forces which influence real estate values are currently considered to be favorable and in reasonable harmony. These forces may be segregated into the following categories: population, economic, governmental, and social. The preceding paragraphs have addressed the more important elements within each category, specifically as they relate to the influences on real property values in the Atlanta Region. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, the national as well as the local economies experienced recessionary characteristics. However, based partially on current increases in occupancy levels and consumer spending, we believe the economy is beginning to show signs of recovery. It is concluded that in general these forces are currently combining to afford this area a very positive outlook with regard to anticipated levels of demand for local real estate. Having been chosen as the site of the 1994 National Football League Championship "Superbowl" and the 1996 International Summer 0lympic Games, local business leaders project positive short- term impact on construction and the apartment market, in addition to a long term positive impact of the perception of Atlanta as an international city. Because of the anticipated continued growth in demand, the potential for the likelihood of increasing real estate values in the Altanta area and in the subject vicinity is good. HENRY COUNTY OVERVIEW Henry County has recently become the fastest growing county in the Metro Atlanta area. Located just south of downtown Atlanta and bisected by Interstate 75, the population has increased by over 50% in the last ten years. During the last two decades, north Henry County, including Stockbridge has witnessed unimaginable growth. North Henry is, by far, the residential and retail center of the county. The population has more than doubled since 1970. Central Henry County, including the county seat of McDonough, has also experienced growth. About 37% of the county's population is located in central Henry County. Hampton and Locust Grove are the holdouts. The growth in these two areas has been very slight. Currently, these two towns are expected to be the last in the county to develop. However, the proposed Outer Perimeter Highway and the proposed second Atlanta Airport could have significant impact on their development. Henry County has a young, relatively uneducated population. The median age is just over 30 with a median house-hold income of $40,208. For the year 1989, 95% of the potential workforce was employed. Henry County has been fortunate to receive its share of industrial development. Japan-based NEC Technologies got the ball rolling in 1985 when they announced plans to build their first plant in Georgia. They have been followed by BellSouth Services, Carbonic Industries, Ecolab, Toppan Interamerica, Disco, and more recently, Pep Boys, Nestle, and Ford Motor Company Parts Distribution. Henry County has been very fortunate over the last ten years. Henry County has planned and managed our remarkable growth. The balanced growth between residential, industrial and retail is expected to make Henry County the Crown Jewel of the Southern Crescent for the next20 years. HENRY COUNTY DEMOGRAPHIC DATA POPULATION 1980 CURRENT 36,309 59,300 AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD INCOME $20,644 $40,208 AVERAGE PER CAPITA EBI $10,101 $16,187 TOTAL RETAIL SALES $116,937,000 $248,125,000 (Attached Map of Eagle's Landing Master Plan) HENRY COUNTY Known as the "Mother of Counties," Henry County was split up to form several adjoining counties, including Fulton,, Dekalb and Clayton. Named after Patric Henry, the county was ceded by the Creek Indians in the Treaty of 1821. McDonough, the county seat was incorporated in 1823. Stockbridge began as a settlement in 1829. Locust Grove was named for a grove of flowering locust trees and incorporated in 1893. Hampton was named for a Confederate war hero and has a number of historical houses and the Atlanta International Raceway. As one of Georgia's fastest growing counties, Henry County is strategically located on the southeastern side of Atlanta where 675 and 75 connect. Henry County, originally a cotton-growing county, was devastated during the Civil War. Rebuilding, the county concentrated on diversification and became independent of cotton and is now home to many industries and offices including a major Federal Aviation Administration Facility. With quick interstate access, Henry County has developed into a bedroom community for Atlanta. Henry County has become a popular location with Hollywood directors. Movies like "Glory" and "Murder in Mississippi" were filmed in Henry County. Henry County's Atlanta Motor Speedway holds the record for the largest attendance (92,000+) at a one day, paid sporting event. Henry County's Eagles Landing Country Club is host to the LPGA golf tournament.

The Income Approach to Value is based on the theory that the present value of a property is equal to the present value of its future capacity to produce income including the proceeds of a sale at a future date. The most readily accepted method of valuing vacant sites is the Direct Sales Comparison Approach to Value. This approach involves the analysis of sales of competitive properties . A comparison is made between the appraised property and the comparable sales which have sold within a reasonably close time frame. The essence of the Direct Sales Comparison Approach to Value is to discover what competitive properties have sold for in order to determine the market value indication of the appraised property. From the data a pattern generally emerges to indicate a value for the subject. Due to the nature of the subject property it is necessary to combine the income and sale comparison approach. The sales comparison approach is used to establish a value for each lot. The absorption rate determines at what rate the lots will sell (income stream). The income approach is then used to establish the present value of the sales (income stream). Neighborhood Data The subject property is located in the Northern sector of Henry County. The neighborhood be defined as being bound by Jodeco Road to the south, the City of Stockbridge to the North, State Highway 42 to the East and Interstate 75 to the West. This area is suburban, with 65% single family residences, 5% commercial, 5% multi, and 25% vacant. The growth rate for this area is steady with some increases in property values. The supply/demand seems to be in balance. Marketing time is considered to be four to six months with average market appeal. Overall Henry County is one of the fastest growing counties in Metro Atlanta and should be able to absorb all the subject properties within 1.00 year. The Eagles Landing Development is one of the nicest and most successful developments in Henry County and the State of Georgia. Homes are valued from 150 thousand to l.3 million. The Golf Course will be hosting an LPGA Tour event this summer. Windsong price range is $135,000 to $280,000. The total development will have 423 lots situated on 235.76 acres. By the time phase VI is completed, all other phases should be sold out. Windsong Lot Sales Over the past nine months Windsong Plantation has sold 40 lots. This is and absorption rate of 4.44 lots per month. Since Windsong was first developed every phase has experienced an absorption rate of between 4 to 6 lots per month. Windsong has consistently been at the top of Henry County in lot and home sales. Windsong has also had a large number of resales which has not slowed development. The first four months of 1996 Windsong sold 27 lots. Considering the past and the forecasted explosion of Henry County, phase VI should experience an and absorption rate of 5 lots per month. Sell-out period is as follows: 56 lots 56 lots / 5 lots per month = 11.2 months sellout say ONE YEAR SELLOUT PERIOD COMPARABLE SITE SALES Sale No. 1 Location: Jodeco Road, 3 miles southwest Grantor: Claude E.

In the final reconciliation all emphasis was given the Sales Comparison Approach which was intergrated with the Income Approach. This approach is considered much more reliable when dealing with this type development. DIRECT SALES COMPARISON APPROACH TO VALUE A comparable analysis has been made of properties thought to be generally under similar influences. Our analysis of these sales has utilized the price per lot unit of comparison. The features influencing the value of a site such as the subject include general location, size, road frontage, availability of utilities, topography, zoning, and time of sale. The comparable sales are located in Henry county and are considered to be under similar influences as the subject. All sales are situated within two miles of the subject and are vacant residential lots in subdivisions. Comparables are as follows: Camparable # 1 Subdivision: Lots 16L and 18L Windsong Location: same subdivision Date of Sale: 4-96 Financing: typical Number of Lots: two Total Price: $61,000.00 Average per Lot: $30,500.00 Utilties: elec., water, sewer Streets: public, paved, curbs, storm sewer Size: approximately 15,000 square feet each Comments: Typical lots DIRECT SALES COMPARISON APPROACH TO VALUE (CONT.) Comparable # 2 Subdivision: Lot 39L Windsong Location: same subdivision Date of Sale: 4-96 Financing: typical Number of Lots: one Total Price: $34,000 Average per Lot: $34,000 Utilities: elec., water, sewer Streets: public, paved, curbs, storm sewer Size: approximately 15,000 square feet Comments: typical lot DIRECT SALES COMPARISON APPROACH TO VALUE (CONT.) Comparable # 3 Subdivision: Lots 21M and 34L Windsong Location: same subdivision Date of Sale: 4-96 Financing: typical Number of Lots: two Total Price: $66,000 Average per Lot: $33,000 Utilities: elec., water, sewer Streets: public, paved, curbs, storm sewer Size: approximately 15,000 square feet each Comments: typical lots FINAL RECONCILIATION OR INCOME APPROACH Cash Sellout Having derived the retail lot prices and projected absorption (5 lots per month), the next step is to determine deductions from the gross retail proceeds. These deductions include marketing costs, holding costs (taxes), and entrepreneurial or investor's profit. Marketing costs include sales commissions and advertising. We have projected this category at 5% of gross sales. With a development of this size, the holding costs are $125 per lot, per year. Entrepreneurial profit represents the return required to induce an investor to undertake the risk associated with acquiring the unsold lots and marketing lots over the projected sellout period. Our research indicates that typical investors by the lots to make money on the improvements not the lots. Profit is not deducted in this market. Deducting the marketing costs, holding costs, and investors profit results in periodic net revenues. To arrive at a value indication, these periodic net revenues must be discounted to present value. The discount rate selected should reflect the risk incurred by the investor during the sellout period. The discount rate can be viewed as the sum of the rate earned on a "safe" investment such as a treasury bill or certificate of deposit, plus a premium to account for risk. Currently, treasury bills and certificates of deposit yeild between 3% and 6%. As there is some economic uncertainty at present, we have considered a 4% risk premium appropriate, yeilding a range of between 7% & 10%. We have concluded that a 9% rate reasonable reflects the market for the subject property. The discount rate has been applied on a future value basis. That is the net present value of the future proceeds. FINAL RECONCILIATION (CONT.) We have projected a sellout period of 1.00 years which is an asorption rate of 5 lots per month. From the Direct Sales Comparison Approach we have established a value of $34,000 for each of the 56 lots in phase VI. 56 Lots: $34,000 x 56 = $1,904,000 gross proceeds = $1,904,000 Expenses And Profit: sales commission/marketing expense @ 5% x lot values $ 95,200 taxes @ $125 per lot x 57 x lst year sell out $ 7,000 Gross Receipts $1,904,000 -$ 95,200 -$ 7,000 Value $1,801,800 The market should be able to absorb all 56 lots in 1.00 years. The discount rate is 9% for a 1.00 year period. The present value of the proposed lots is $1,652,294. Value was figured on an annual time frame. We estimate the 56 lot phase VI of Windsong to have a present value of: $1,650,000 ONE MILLION SIX HUNDERD FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ZONING (5) Minimum rear yard 40 feet (6) Maximum height 75 feet Sec. 3-7-157 .

Date of Appraisal April 1, 1996 Legal Description Land Lot 1 of the 7 District and Land Lot 1 of the 11 District, Henry County, Georgia, containing 21.97 acres. Property Rights Appraised Fee Simple Interest Zoning The subject property is zoned RM , within a Planned Development District. This subdivision is also restricted by covenants. Utilities The utilities available are as follows: electricity, public water, telephone, cable television, and sewage. No utility problems can be anticipated. Street Street will be paved with asphalt per code. The subdivision wi11 have curbs, storm sewers, street lights and underground electricity. IDENTIFICATION AND PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL, (CONT.) Definition of 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, 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: a. buyer and sel1 er 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. Definition of Highest and Best Use "That reasonable and probable use that will support the highest present value, as defined, as of the effective date of the appraisal." (Real Estate Appraisal Terminology, published by the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers and the Society of Real Estate Appraisers,1975.) IDENTIFICATION AND PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL, (CONT.) Highest and Best Use of the Subject Property The highest and best use of a site is subject to the dynamics of the marketplace and thus is not defined in permanent terms but rather is a concept whereby the utility of a site evolves depending upon the character of the market as defined by the pulsating parameters of supply and demand. Thus, as one evaluates a property's highest and best use, one obviously needs to examine the specific constraints governing present and alternative uses of the property. The specific time at which the highest and best use is evaluated recognizes the market forces that ultimately create value. The American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers in their authoritative text, The Amraisal of Real Estate, 8th Edition, 1983, defines highest and best use as follows: "The reasonable and probable use that supports the highest present value, as defined, as of the date of the appraisal. Alternatively, it is said to be the use, from among reasonably probable and legal alternative uses, found to be physically possible, appropriately supported, financially feasible, and that results in the highest present land value. Obiviously, the highest and best use of a property is a determination made in subjective terms based on the appraiser's judgement and analytical skills. In layman's terms, the highest and best use is that use which will yield the owner the greatest potential benefit, generally interpreted and measured an terms of present and future income streams generated from the subject. IDENTIFICATION AND PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL, (CONT.) Hiqhest and Best Use of the Subject Property, (cont.) Appraisal literature breaks down the analysis of highest and best use into the following four areas: 1.) physically possible uses; 2.) legally permissible uses; 3.) financially feasible uses; and 4.) maximally productive uses. Site Analysis In ascertaining the highest and best use of a site, it is necessary to study the four previously mentioned factors. These are physical adaptability of the site, legality of use, the marketability of the use, and the most profitable use. While normally the legality of use and physical adaptability of a site is readily ascertainable, rarely is the most profitable marketable use apparent. As previously mentioned, the Subject property is zoned RM. Uses permitted in this District are included in this report. See attached. This zoning could be described as favorable but somewhat limited in its Utilization. Physically, all the lots have appropriate access with a minimum of 70 feet of road frontage and are large enough to allow for most uses under the current zoning. No utility problems can be anticipated. Out of the possible and permissable uses, the next step is to consider those used which will produce a positive return to the owner (i.e. feasible uses) . Given the economic growth of the neighborhood, and the propertys specific location, the subject's highest and best use is the current zoning (Planned Development District). DESCRIPTION OF LOTS There will be 64 total lots in Phase III. Blocks and numbers are as follows. Block D, Lots 14 thru 36 Block E, Lots 2 thru 18, and lots 20 thru 43 It is assumed that all lots when developed will meet county guidelines. The subdivision will have curbs, storm sewers, underground electricity, and street lights. The other amenities for Parkside include, clubhouse, swimming pool, playground, and nature trail. The homes in Parkside range from $120,000 to $165,000. They are considered semi-custom homes with good functional utility. Exterior maintenance and upkeep is considered good. Location is considered very good. Overall, the lots and improvements are very marketable and should experience a high absorption rate. The railroad is effecting the second phase but should not effect the subject lots. MAP AREA MAP METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW The City of Atlanta is considered the financial, communication, and transportation center of the southeastern region of the United States. Atlanta serves as the seat of the Fulton County government and as the capital city of the State of Georgia. Atlanta has consistently had one of the stronger economies in the United States, attributable largely to its strategic location, diversified economic base, and lack of physical and geographic barriers. The Atlanta Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) was enlarged from 15 to 18 counties in the 1980 population census. As of December 31, 1980, the population of the 15 county MSA was about 2,064,200 the 18th largest in the nation. Since that tine, the three additional counties, Coweta, Barrow and Spalding, have MSA population increases of 110,200 persons for a total 1980 MSA population of 2,174,000. By December 31, 1990 the population in the 18 county area had increased to 2,914,000. The Atlanta MSA was first enlarged in 1973 from 5 to 15 counties, making long term analysis of population trends difficult. At year end 1974 (the first full year after the expansion) the total Metro population was 1,791,400. The net growth between 1974 and 1980 was 272,800 persons or 15.2%. The population in this region is expected to increase to 3,334,000 by the year 1995, which represents a growth of 14.4% from December 1990. Employment The Atlanta MSA had a non-agricultural employment force of 1,513,200 as of July, 1994. In the five year period from December 1985 to December 1990, the total non-agricultural employment of the Atlanta Metro Area increased by 185,380 persons; this represents an increase of about 15% over the five year period. The employment mix has remained fairly stable and well-diversified. A breakdown by employment group for the 18 county Atlanta MSA as of April, 1994, was: NON-AGRICULTURAL EMPLOYMENT BY INDUSTRY IMUSTRY #EMPLOYED % of TOTAL EMPLOYED Mining 1,000 0% Construction 55,900 4% Retail Trade 268,800 17% Wholesale Trade 136,700 9% Transportation 139,900 9% Services 378,300 26% Manufacturing 184,100 12% Government 230,800 16% Real Estate 117,900 7% Totals 1,513,200 100% The current unemployment rate for the Atlanta MSA is 4.3% (down from 4.9% in July, 1991), which is lower than the State of Georgia's 5.4%, and the U.S. average of 5.8%.

An evidence of Atlanta's emergence from a regional city to a national trade and business center, most of the fortune 500 top industrial firms in the nation have operations in Atlanta. Additionally, over twenty companies have chosen to located their national and/or international headquarters in Atlanta including the following firms: Coca Cola International, Coca Cola Enterprises, Georgia Gulf, Georgia Pacific, Goldkist, National Service Industries, Cxford Industries, Scientific Atlanta, Equifax, Genuine Parts, Turner Broadcasting, Delta Air Lines, Holiday Inn, Colonial Pipeline, United Parcel Services, Bank South-Wachovia, Suffrust Bank, Home Depot, Bell South, Southern Company, and Oglethorpe Power. Some of the large manufacturing employers in this region include General Motors, Lockheed of Georgia, Western Electric - AT&T, Ford Motor Company, and Atlantic Steel. This widely diverse manufacturing base accounts for about 12% of the Atlanta area's total employment. After gaining 21,300 jobs in 1993, the area has been forecated as adding 39,000 jobs in 1995. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) Convention Center Another pertinent factor should be noted regarding the economic base of Atlanta. The city is rapidly becoming known as one of the nations most important convention centers, ranking fourth nationally in annual delegate attendance. In the ten year period from 1980 to 1990, the number of conventioneers meeting in Atlanta has almost doubled increasing from one million to 1.9 million. The construction of the Georgia World Congress Center and 12 major hotels since 1973 has allowed this expansion. The World Congress Center, a trade show and convention facility, houses the largest single-level exhibition hall in the world at 650,000 square feet, which was expanded to 952,000 square feet in 1992. It contains 70 meeting rooms, a 2,000 seat auditorium (with simultaneous language-translating services), and a 33,000 square feet ballroom. The center was expanded in 1992 to a total of 2.1 million square feet. Government The local government of the City of Atlanta consists of a mayor and an aldermanic board, both having reasonably good relationships with the local business community. The majority of involved parties has the common goal of gaining for Atlanta the reputation as an international city. As stated earlier, Atlanta serves not only as the Fulton County Government seat, but as the Capital City of the State of Georgia. The city is also the regional headquarters for various federal agencies. METROPOLITAN ATLANTA OVERVIEW (CONT.) Summary In summary, the basic forces which influence real estate values are currently considered to be favorable and in reasonable harmony. These forces may be separated into the following categories: population, economic, governmental, and social. The preceding paragraphs have addressed the more important elements within each category, specifically as they relate to the influences on real property values in the Atlanta Region. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, the national as well as the local economies experienced recessionary characteristics. However, based partially on current increases in occupancy levels and consumer spending, we believe the economy is beginning to show signs of recovery. It is concluded that in general these forces are currently combining to afford this area a very positive outlook with regard to anticipated levels of demand for local real estate. Having hosted the 1994 National Football League Championship "Superbowl" and the 1996 International Summer Olympic Games, the local economy has experienced short and long-term positive impact. The impact has reached almost every facit of the local economy and the perception of Altanta as an international city. Because of the anticipated continued growth in demand, the potential for the likelihood of increasing real estate values in the Altanta area and in the subject vicinity is good. HENRY COUNTY OVEWIEW Henry County has recently become the fastest growing county in the Metro Atlanta area. Located just south of downtown Atlanta and bisected by Interstate 75, the population has increased by over 50% in the last ten years. During the last two decades, north Henry County, including Stockbridge has witnessed unimaginable growth. North Henry is, by far, the residential and retail center of the county. The population has more than doubled since 1970. Central- Henry County, including the county seat of McDonough, has also experienced growth. About 37% of the county's population is located in central Henry County. Hampton and Locust Grove are the holdouts. The growth in these two areas has been very slight. Currently, these two towns are expected to be the last in the county to develop. However, the proposed Outer Perimeter Highway and the proposed second Atlanta Airport could have significant impact on their development. Henry County has a young, relatively well-educated population. The median age is just over 30 with a median house-hold income of $40,208. For the year 1989, 95% Of the potential workforce was employed. Henry County has been fortunate to receive its share of industrial Development. Japan-based NEC Technologies got the ball rolling in 1985 when they announced plans to build their first plant in Georgia. They have been followed by BellSouth Services, Carbonic Industries, Ecolab, Toppan Interamerica, Disco, and more recently, Pep Boys, Nestle, and Ford Motor Company Parts Distribution. Henry County has been very fortunate over the last ten years. Henry County has Planned and managed our remarkable growth. The balanced growth between residential, industrial and retail is expected to make Henry County the Crown Jewel of the Southern crescent for the next 20 years.

Named after Patrick Henry, the county was ceded by the Creek Indians in the Treaty of 1821. McDonough, the county seat was incorporated in 1823. Stockbridge began as a settlement in 1829. Locust Grove was named for a grove of flowering locust trees and incorporated in 1893. Hampton was named for a Confederate war hero and has a number of historical- houses and the Atlanta International Raceway. As one of Georgia's fastest growing counties, Henry County is strategically located on the southeastern side of Atlanta where 675 and 75 connect. Henry County, originally a cotton-growing county, was devastated during the Civil War. Rebuilding, the county concentrated on diversification and became independent of cotton and is now home to many industries and offices, including a major Federal Aviation Administration Facility. With quick interstate access, Henry County has developed into a bedroom community for Atlanta. Henry County has become a popular location with Hollywood directors. Movies like "Glory" and "Murder in Mississippi" were filmed in Henry County. Henry County's Atlanta Motor Speedway holds the record for the largest attendance (92,000+) at a one day, paid sporting event. Henry County's Eagles Landing Country Club is host to the LPGA golf tournament.

The neighborhood could roughly be defined as being bound by Jodeco Road to the South, the City Of Stockbridge to the North, State Highway 42 to the East and Interstate 75 to the West. This area is suburban, with 65% single family residences, 5% commercial, 5% Multi, and 25% vacant. The growth rate for this area is steady with some increases in property values. The supply/demand seems to be in balance. Marketing time is considered to be four to six months with average market appeal. Overall Henry County is one of the fastest growing counties in Metro Atlanta and should be able to absorb all the subject prcperties within 2.5 years. ( this includes existing lots The Eagles Landing Development is one of the nicest and most successful developments in Henry County and the State of Gerogia. Homes are valued from 150 thousand to 1.3 million. The Golf Course will be hosting an LPGA Tour event this summer. Parkside price range will is $90,000 to $140,000. There are two similar developments, with comparable priced houses within 4 miles of subject. They are, St. Andrews and The Vineyards. These two developments have sold 52 and 73 units respectively during the past year. Killearn Properties is also the developer of Windsong, with houses ranging from $135,000 to $210,000. This development has sold 44 units during the same time frame. It is the opinion of the undersigns that based on these facts and taking into consideration the price range of the units in Parkside that the market will absorb 3.5 units per month. Phase I of Parkside has sold 59 lots in five months. Neiqhborhood Data Parkside sold 2.1 lots per month from January 1995 thru January 1996. The property was under poor management over this period. Up until January 1995, Parkside had averaged over four lots per month. Killearn Properties has put the subdivision under new management. Since February 1996, Parkside has sold eight lots and has seven more under contract. This is an absorption rate of five lots per month when April is included. Considering all data, an absorption rate of 3.5 lots per month is appropriate. APPROACHES TO VALUE The Cost Approach to Value is based on the theory that the value of a property is the sum of the value of the land plus the reproduction cost of all the improvements, less depreciation from all causes. The Income Approach to Value is based on the theory that the present value of a property is equal to the present value of its future capacity to produce income including the proceeds of a sale at a future date. The most readily accepted method of valuing vacant sites is the Direct Sales Comparison Approach to Value. This approach involves the analysis of sales of competitive properties. A comparison is made between the appraised property and the comparable sales which have sold within a reasonably close time frame. The essence of the Direct Sales Comparison Approach to Value is to discover what competitive properties have sold for in order to determine the market value indication of the appraised property. From the data a pattern generally emerges to indicate a value for the subject. Due to the nature of the subject property it is necessary to combine the income and sale comparison approach. The sales comparison approach is used to establish a value for each lot. The absorption rate determines at what rate the lots will sell (income stream). The income approach is then used to establish the present value of the sales (income stream).

Taking into consideration the size of all comparables is the most similar to subject and was given the most weight. The subjects price per acre is established at $15,000 per acre or $329,550. COST APPROACH TO VALUE Definition of Cost Approach to Value In this process, the land value is estimated separately through a market comparison. The properties which were chosen for comparison and adjustment to the Subject site are considered to be under similar environmental and economic influences. The details of these "comparable" site sales are listed in a preceding section of this report. The value estimate by the Cost Approach is then arrived at by adding the estimated land value to the depreciated value of the improvements. The rationale of this approach is that the replacement of cost new plus land value represents the upper limit of value. Deduction of depreciation from all causes, if properly estimated, should reflect market value. Depreciation Depreciation of the subject improvements is an important factor in the Cost Approach to Value. It has been defined by the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers in its Appraisal Terminology Handbook as follows: Depreciation...An effect caused by deterioration and/or obsolenscence. Deterioration is evidenced by wear and tear, decay, dry rot, cracks, encrustations,or structural defects. Obsolescence is divisible into two parts, functional and economic. Functional obsolescence is the adverse effect on value resulting from defects in design and impaired utility. It can also be caused by changes over the years that havemade some aspect of the structural, material, or design obsolete by current standards. Functional obsolescence may be due to poor plan, mechanical inadequacy or superadequacy, functional inadequacy or superadequacy due to size, age, or other. It is evidenced by conditions within the property. Economic obsolescence is caused by factors external to the property, such as inharmonious property uses. It is caused by adverse factors which result in some degree of market rejection. The extent of this item is the extent of the loss in market value. COST APPROACH TO VALUE (CONT.) Costs: Engineering and Surveying $ 51,100 Land Value $329,550 Clearing and Grading $ 39,895 Storm Drainage $ 63,090 Water $ 55,803 Sewer $l40,831 Curbing $ 30,353 Paving $ 68,700 Club House and Pool $100,000 Landscaping and Sign n/a Contingencies $ 90,000 Cost Estimate say $ 968,322 These figures for this cost estimate were taken from the figures supplied by the developer and from the undersigns professional experience of appraising other similar developments. In the final reconciliation all emphasis was given the sales Comparison Approach which was integrated With the Income Approach. This approach is considered much more reliable when dealing with this type development. DIRECT SALES COMPARISON APPROACH TO VALUE A comparable analysis has been made of properties thought to be generally under similar influences. Our analysis of these sales has utilized the price per lot unit of comparison. The features influencing the value of a site such as the subject include general location, size, road frontage, availability of utilities, topography, zoning,, and time of sale. The comparable sales are located in Henry County and are considered to be under similar influences as the subject. All sales are situated within two miles of the subject and are vacant residential lots in subdivisions. Comparables are as follows: Comparable # 1 Subdivision: Lot 8F Parkside Location: . same subdivision Date of Sale: March 1996 Financing: typical Number of lots: one Total Price: $22,500.00 Average per Lot: $22,500.00, Utilities: elec., water, sewer Streets: public, paved, curbs, storm sewer Size: approximately 10,000 square feet each Comments: Typical lots DIRECT SALES COMPARISON APPROACH TO VALUE (CONT.)

Correlation of Values Comps 1 thru 5 range frcn $20,000 to $24,000 per lot. From these sales a price per square foot of $22,000 can be supported. The comparables used are considered very similar to the subject. The comps are also in Parkside and give a good indication of value. FINAL RECONCILLATION OR INCOME APPROACH Cash Sellout Having derived the retail lot prices and projected absorption (3.5 lot month), the next step is to determine deductions from the gross retail proceeds. These deductions include marketing costs, holding costs (taxes),, and entrepreneurial or investor's profit. Marketing costs include sales commissions and advertising. We have projected this category at 5% of gross sales. With a development of this size, the holding costs are $125,per lot, per year. Entrepreneurial profit represents the return required to induce an investor to undertake the risk associated with acquiring the unsold lots and marketing lots over the projected sellout period. Our research indicates that typical investors by the lots to make money on the improvements not the lots. Profit is not deducted in this market. Deducting the marketing costs, holding costs, and investors profit results in periodic net revenues. To arrive at a value indication, these periodic net revenues must be discounted to present value. The discount rate selected should reflect the risk incurred by the investor during the sellout period. The discount rate can be viewed as the sum of the rate earned on a "safe" investment such as a treasury bill or certificate of deposit, plus a premium to account for risk. Currently, treasury bills and certificates of deposit yield between 3% and 6%. As there is some economic uncertainty at present, we have considered a 5% risk premium appropriate, yielding a range of between 8% & 11%. We have concluded that an 8% rate reasonable reflects the market for the subject property. The discount rate has been applied on a future value basis. That is the net present value of the future proceeds. FINAL RECONCILIATION (CONT.) We have projected a sellout period of 2.5 years which is an absorption rate of 3.5 lots per month. This includes 41 existing lots. From the Direct Sales Comparison Approach we have established a value of $22,000 for each of the 64 lots in phase III. 64 Lots: $22,000 x 64 = $1,408,000.00 gross proceeds = $1,,408,000.00 Expenses And Profit: sales commission/marketing expense @ 5% x lot values $70,400 taxes @ $125 per lot x 64 x lst year sell out $ 8,000 taxes @ $125 per lot x 64 x 2nd year sell out $ 8,000 taxes $125 per lot x 16 x 3rd year sell out $ 2,000 Gross Receipts $1,408,000 -$ 70,400 -$ 18,000 Value $1,319,600 The market should be able to absorb all 64 lots in 2.5 years. The discount rate is 8% for a 2.50 year period. The present value of the proposed lots is $1,131,341. We estimate the 64 lot phase III of Parkside to have a present value of: $1,150,000 ONE MILLION ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS (ROUNDED) INSERT 3-7-149 HENRY COUNTY CODE (3) Crop gardens.

SPECIAL FACTORS Background of the Merger J.T. Williams, Jr. and David K Williams, two officers and directors of Killearn, own directly, or through the Purchaser, as of July 1, 1999, 237,133 shares of Killearn common stock, constituting approximately 26.7% of the issued and outstanding shares of Killearn common stock. These shares were acquired from time to time in market transactions commencing in January 1998. Twice in the last two years, Proactive Technologies, Inc. ("PTI") has proposed transactions involving Killearn's outstanding stock. PTI is currently, and in the past has been, a large shareholder of Killearn and the maker of several promissory notes held by the Purchaser. See "The Merger - Financing" on page __ and "Beneficial Ownership of Common Stock" on page __. In addition, from October 1996 to August 1997, Mark A. Conner was Chairman of the Board and President of both PTI and Killearn. Mr. Conner is no longer associated with Killearn. From March 1997 to July 1997, David K. Williams, an officer and director of Killearn, was Chief Financial Officer of both PTI and Killearn. Mr. Williams ceased his association with PTI in July 1997. On December 3, 1997, PTI offered to acquire all of the outstanding stock of Killearn for $9.00 per share. Although Killearn convened a special committee of the board of directors to consider this proposal, several conditions to the proposed offer did not occur and the transacting was never consummated. Then in February 1999, J.T. Williams, Jr., the Chairman of the Board of The purchaser, was contacted by PTI. During the conversations held in February 1999, PTI offered to sell to the Purchaser 132,000 shares of Killearn common stock at a price of $6.50 per share. PTI indicated that the sale would be subject to the approval of a group controlled by Mr. Mason Hawkins and other creditors of PTI and who held the Killearn common stock as collateral for certain loans. Without conducting a formal analysis of the purchase price or valuation of Killearn's assets, the Purchaser preliminarily agreed to these terms. In March 1999, PTI advised the Purchaser that PTI was unable to secure Mr. Hawkins' approval to the proposed transaction and the agreement to sell the Killearn common stock to the Purchaser was terminated. In March 1999, Mr. Hawkins contacted the Purchaser and offered to sell the Purchaser 132,000 shares of Killearn common stock. Mr. Hawkins did not indicate a proposed sales price for the Killearn common stock. The Purchaser declined Mr. Hawkins' offer, but offered instead to purchase the notes issued by PTI in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $1,400,000 (including accrued and unpaid interest), which was secured by these shares, for $1,150,000. The offer was accepted by Mr. Hawkins, subject to the consent of PTI, which was required by the terms of the notes. PTI consented to the transaction, and on March 24, 1999, the Purchaser acquired these notes from the group controlled by Mr. Hawkins for an aggregate purchase price of $1,150,000. On March 9, 1999, Mr. Arthur Weiss, who is the Chairman of the Board of PTI, requested a meeting with the Purchaser in order to discuss a two step transaction among Killearn, a partnership controlled by Mr. Weiss, and the Purchaser. The first step of the proposed transaction would require the Purchaser to purchase substantially all of the assets of Killearn in exchange for the Purchaser's shares of Killearn common stock valued at $5.50 per share) , a promissory note issued to the Purchaser by PTI in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $1,400,000 (including accrued and unpaid interest) and the balance, if any, in a promissory note to be issued by the Purchaser. In the second step, the partnership controlled by Mr. Weiss would contribute to Killearn certain real estate assets in exchange for shares of Killearn common stock (each valued at $5.50 per share). Mr. Weiss stated that his purpose was to acquire the controlling interest of a public corporation which owns viable real estate assets. Other than shares held by the Purchaser and shares received by the partnership controlled by Mr. Weiss, the proposed transactions would not affect Killearn common stock held by the other shareholders. The Purchaser agreed to consider the proposed transaction. On March 17, 1999, the Purchaser preliminarily agreed to Mr. Weiss' proposed offer and presented it to Killearn. The Purchaser, Killearn and the partnership controlled by Mr. Weiss executed a non-binding letter of intent, which was specifically subject to approval by the board of directors and shareholders of Killearn. Between March 9, 1999 and March 26, 1999, the Purchaser and Killearn further considered the proposal. The Purchaser and Killearn were unable to agree upon which assets of Killearn were to be acquired by the Purchaser and the value of these assets if acquired. On March 19, 1999, Killearn's board of directors appointed a special committee, consisting of Mallory E. Horne and Melvin L. Pope, Jr., to analyze the terms of the proposed transaction among the Purchaser, the partnership controlled by Mr. Weiss and Killearn, including analyzing the income tax consequences of the proposed transaction to the shareholders of Killearn. On March 26, 1999, the special committee of Killearn advised the Board of Directors of Killearn that they would not recommend the proposed transaction involving the partnership controlled by Mr. Weiss, the Purchaser and Killearn. Based on the advice of its tax advisor, the special committee and the Board determined that the sale of its assets to the Purchaser would force Killearn to recognize a large taxable gain as a result of its low basis in these assets. Therefore, the special committee and the Board determined that the proposed transaction would not be in the best interest of Killearn's shareholders. After the Board's decision to reject the Weiss proposal, the Purchaser and the Williams Family began considering a transaction whereby the Purchaser would acquire all of the outstanding stock of Killearn. In early April 1999, the Purchaser offered to purchase in a merger transaction all of the shares of Killearn common stock not owned by the Purchaser or the Williams Family for $5.50 per share. The price of $5.50 was determined by the Purchaser and after considering of a number of factors. First, the then current book value of the Killearn common stock was $4.36 per share. Therefore, $5.50 per share represented a significant premium over Killearn's book value. Second, the Purchaser and the Williams Family had acquired its 26.7% interest in Killearn during the past year and a half for an average price of $4.99 per share. This suggested that the Purchaser and the Williams Family had been able to make open market, arms-length purchases of Killearn common stock and become a significant shareholder, mostly at prices below $5.50 per share. Third, although the Killearn common stock had traded at prices above $5.50 per share during certain periods in the last year, at the time of the offer the market price was $4.50 per share. Fourth, the Purchaser and the Williams Family calculated that the gross asset value of the land owned by Killearn was approximately $50 million based on its estimates of future land sales. The Purchaser and the Williams Family then concluded that once this amount was discounted for bulk sales and the outstanding debt attributable to these assets, it left a net asset value would be less than $5.00 per share. In calculating these numbers, the Purchaser and the Williams Family discounted the bulk sales by 10% per year for a five to six year sales period which based on their experience was typical for property of this kind. Fifth, the Purchaser and the Williams Family considered the previous firm offers that had been presented to Killearn with respect to its stock. In particular, they gave weight to the fact that Mr. Weiss had proposed a transaction whereby he independently attributed a value of $5.50 per share to the common stock of Killearn. They also noted, but distinguished, the prior proposed transactions with PTI. Although in the first transaction, PTI offered $9.00 per share, the deal could not be consummated at that price. In addition, the transaction for $6.50 per share had only been an offer to sell the Killearn common stock owned by PTI and the Purchaser had not conducted a formal valuation or given a definitive acceptance of PTI's offer. Neither the Purchaser nor the Williams Family considered a going concern value of Killearn because of the late stage of development of Killearn's properties. The Purchaser and the Williams Family also dismissed liquidation values because the Purchaser and the Williams Family believed that a sale of Killearn's properties in liquidation would generate a lower sales price, and, therefore, a lower estimate of value of Killearn, than their previous valuations. Given their analysis, the Purchaser and the Williams Family believed that the Merger and the merger consideration of $5.50 per share are fair to the unaffiliated shareholders of Killearn. The Board of Directors agreed to consider the proposed transaction with the Purchaser. On April 19, 1999, the special committee of the Board met with representatives of American Express Tax and Business Services Inc. to discuss the Purchaser's proposal. American Express advised the special committee that its preliminary opinion was that the proposed Merger was fair from a financial point of view to the unaffiliated shareholders of Killearn. It told the committee that it based its preliminary opinion upon valuations of the company, its operation and prospects, including valuations based on discounted cash flow analysis, market-to-book ratios, historical stock performance and current trading prices. The special committee advised the board immediately thereafter that subject to the receipt of a final fairness opinion and the execution of definitive agreement, which would contain customary terms and provisions and would require the receipt of shareholder approval, that they would recommend the proposed transaction. During the next several weeks, Killearn and the Purchaser and their respective legal counsel, Greenberg Traurig, P.A. and Montello & Kenney,P.A. negotiated the terms and conditions of a definitive Merger Agreement. The parties negotiated the terms of particular representations, warranties and covenants of each of the parties, as well as certain restrictions on Killearn from negotiating other takeover proposals. The parties also negotiated the indemnification provisions to be included in the definitive Merger Agreement. On May 7, 1999, the special committee, together with representatives of American Express and Greenberg Traurig, met to review the Purchaser's proposal, including the negotiated Merger Agreement. Greenberg Traurig summarized the material terms of the Merger Agreement for the special committee. American Express then presented the special committee with an analysis that it had performed to produce a range of implied values for Killearn's common stock. American Express concluded by delivering an oral opinion to the special committee, which it later confirmed in writing, that the merger consideration to be received by Killearn's shareholders (other than the Purchaser and the Williams Family) was fair from a financial point of view to such shareholders. Based on American Express' opinion and valuation analysis presented at the meeting and the proposed terms of the definitive Merger Agreement, the special committee unanimously determined that the Merger Agreement and the Merger are fair to, and in the best interest of, Killearn and its unaffiliated shareholders, and recommended that the Board of Directors approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger. Immediately after the special committee's meeting, the Board of Directors of Killearn met to receive the report of the special committee. At this meeting, the special committee unanimously recommended that the Board of Directors adopt and approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger. After discussing the recommendation of the special committee and other factors, the Board determined that the Merger Agreement and the Merger are fair to, and in the best interest of, Killearn and its unaffiliated shareholders, and unanimously adopted and approved the Merger Agreement and the Merger. A more complete description of the factors considered by the special committee and the Board of Directors is set forth under the caption "Recommendations of the special committee and Board of Directors" on pages ___ through ___. Recommendations of the special committee and Board of Directors On May 7, 1999, the special committee unanimously determined that the Merger Agreement and the Merger, are fair to, and in the best interests of, Killearn and its unaffiliated shareholders, and recommended that the Board of Directors approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and that it be recommended to the shareholders of Killearn. On May 7, 1999, the Board, based on the unanimous recommendation of the special committee, unanimously determined that the Merger Agreement and the Merger, are fair to, and in the best interests of, the unaffilliated shareholders of Killearn, and recommended that the shareholders approve and adopt the Merger Agreement. During their deliberations, the special committee and Board of Directors were assisted by their financial advisor, American Express Tax & Business Services, Inc., and their legal counsel, Greenberg Traurig, P.A. Special Committee Factors. In connection with its recommendation, the special committee considered a number of factors, including, the following. 1. The special committee reviewed the historical market prices, recent trading activity and the trading volume of Killearn's common stock. Although these results were a factor in their recommendation, they were in no way conclusive. Even though the trading price during the last 18 months had exceeded $10.50 per share, the committee believed that these prices are not reflective of the fair market value of Killearn common stock because of the very small trading volume. The merger consideration of $5.50 per share did, however, represent a premium of approximately 11.3% over the average closing price of $4.94 during the 120 business days prior to May 7, 1999, the date on which the special committee made its unanimous recommendation to the Board. 2. The special committee was advised by American Express Tax & Business Services, Inc. which made oral presentations to the special committee at its April 19, 1999 and May 7, 1999 meetings, as to various financial matters. The special committee was persuaded by American Express' discussion with respect to the various valuations of Killearn and has adopted their conclusions regarding such matters. More specifically, the special committee was persuaded by the oral opinion of American Express Tax & Business Services, Inc., later confirmed in writing, addressed and delivered to the special committee on May 10, 1999, as to the fairness from a financial point of view of the merger consideration to be received by Killearn's shareholders (other than the Purchaser and the Williams Family) pursuant to the Merger Agreement. A copy of American Express Tax & Business Services, Inc.'s opinion, setting forth the assumptions made, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken in connection with such opinion, is attached as Appendix B to this proxy statement and should be read carefully in its entirety. Specifically, the special committee was persuaded by American Express' comparable company market-to-book analysis and its discounted cash flow analysis both finding the intrinsic value of Killearn to be very close to the $5.50 per share offered by the Purchaser. In addition, the special committee rejected liquidation values and values based on earnings or sales analysis because they found, based on the analysis by American Express, that these methodologies were ill-suited for valuing companies in late stages of a real estate development cycle. See "Special Factors - Opinion of Financial Advisor " on page ______. 3. The special committee received and considered information with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects of Killearn, as well as the risks involved in achieving such prospects, and the general economic and market conditions affecting Killearn. They determined that most of Killearn's real estate projects are in the late stages of development and will be fully developed and sold during the next several years. Therefore, in order to continue the business as a going concern, Killearn would have to identify, purchase and develop new tracts of real estate. The development of these real estate tracts by Killearn would take a significant period of time (10-20 years), and initially the development costs would greatly exceed any related revenues. In addition, such projects would entail a high degree of risk. There is no assurance that Killearn would be able to identify a suitable real estate acquisition and attain adequate returns to its shareholders. In contrast, the special committee considered the fact that consummation of the Merger would preclude the shareholders from having the opportunity to participate in Killearn's future earnings or prospects and that the Williams Family would solely benefit from any increases in the value of Killearn following the Merger by reason of their ownership of the Purchaser. Overall, the special committee felt that avoiding future risk was a factor in favor of the guaranteed proceeds of the Merger. 4. The special committee was influence by the likelihood of consummation of the Merger, the proposed structure of the Merger and anticipated closing date, and the conclusion that the Purchaser has the financial capability of completing the Merger . 5. The special committee reviewed and analyzed the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, including the ability of Killearn, to the extent required by fiduciary obligations of the special committee to Killearn's shareholders, to terminate the Merger Agreement in order to approve a Takeover Proposal on terms more favorable to Killearn's shareholders than those set forth in the Merger Agreement. 6. The special committee considered the fact that the Purchaser and certain members of the Williams Family had purchased stock of Killearn within the last year at prices greater than $5.50 per share. Yet, such factors were not determinative of their opinion as to the fairness of the Merger from a financial perspective. In many instances, the purchases occurred when Killearn's common stock was trading at a higher price than it is currently trading. The committee also recognized that the thinly-traded market for the shares of Killearn made exact valuation on a daily basis very difficult. The special committee concluded that the purchases were not based on a formal valuation of the company and if such a valuation had been done, then the Purchaser and/or member of the Williams Family would not have made the acquisition at such a high price. 7. The special committee also considered the recent transactions that had been proposed by Mr. Weiss and PTI. The special committee noted that Mr. Weiss proposed a transaction which attributed a value of $5.50 per share to the Killearn's outstanding stock. In contrast, the special committee did not give much weight to the proposed sale by PTI of its Killearn common stock to the Purchaser for $6.50 because the Purchaser did not conduct a formal evaluation of the price nor did it make a formal acceptance of the offer. In view of the various factors considered by the special committee in connection with its evaluation of the Merger Agreement and the merger consideration, the special committee did not find it necessary to quantify or otherwise attempt to assign relative importance to the specific factors considered in making its determination, nor did it evaluate whether such factors were of equal importance. However, based upon these factors, the evaluation of all the relevant information provided to them by Killearn's financial advisor and taking into account the existing trading ranges for Killearn's common stock, the special committee determined that the Merger, including the merger consideration, was fair, to Killearn's unaffiliated shareholders. In considering the factors described above, individual members of the special committee may have given different weights to different factors. Except for above paragraphs (5) and (6), the special committee considered the foregoing factors to be positive factors supporting its determination that the Merger is fair and in the best interest of Killearn's unaffiliated shareholders. In addition, the special committee determined that the Merger was procedurally fair because, among other things: (1) the special committee consisted entirely of non-management, non-affiliated, independent directors appointed to represent the interests of Killearn's unaffiliated shareholders; (2) the special committee and Board were represented by Greenberg Traurig, Killearn's outside legal counsel, whereas the Purchaser and the Williams Family retained and were represented by separate legal counsel; (3) the special committee retained American Express Tax & Business Services, Inc. as its financial advisor to assist it in evaluating a potential transaction and received advice from American Express; (4) the special committee engaged in extensive deliberations in evaluating the sales process; (5) the $5.50 per share cash consideration and the other terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement resulted from active arm's-length bargaining between the special committee and its representatives, on the one hand, and the Purchaser and its representatives, on the other hand; and (6) the Purchaser and the executive officers and directors of Killearn have agreed to vote their shares in proportion to the vote cast by the unaffiliated shareholders. The special committee believed that such safeguards were sufficient to assure that the Merger is fair to, and in the best interests of Killearn's unaffiliated shareholders. Board of Directors Factors. In connection with its recommendation, the Board considered the following factors: (1) the determinations and recommendations of the special committee; (2) the factors referred to above as having been taken into account by the special committee; and (3) the fact that the cash merger consideration and the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement were the result of arm's-length negotiations between the special committee and Killearn, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand. The Board, after hearing the report of the special committee, adopted the special committee's analysis as well as the analysis of American Express. The Board did not consider it practicable to, nor did it attempt to, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors it considered in reaching its decision. The Board did not find it necessary to quantify or otherwise attempt to assign relative importance to the specific factors considered in making its determination, nor did it evaluate whether such factors were of equal importance. Rather, the Board reached a general consensus that the Merger was advisable and in the best interests of Killearn, its unaffiliated shareholders and Killearn's other constituencies. In considering the factors described above, individual members of the Board may have given different weight to different factors. Except for paragraphs (5) and (6) of the special committee factors, the Board considered the foregoing factors to be positive factors supporting its determination that the Merger is fair and in the best interest of Killearn's unaffiliated shareholders. The Board determined that the Merger was procedurally fair because, among other things: (1) the special committee consisted entirely of non-management, non-affiliated independent directors appointed to represent the interests of the Killearn's unaffiliated shareholders; (2) the special committee and Board were represented by Greenberg Traurig, Killearn's outside legal counsel, whereas J.T. Williams, Jr. and David K. Williams and the Purchaser retained and were represented by separate legal counsel; (3) the special committee retained American Express Tax & Business Services, Inc. as its financial advisor to assist it in evaluating a potential transaction and received advice from American Express; (4) the special committee engaged in extensive deliberations in evaluating the sales process; (5) the $5.50 per share cash consideration and the other terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement resulted from active arm's-length bargaining between the special committee and its representatives, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand; and (6) the Purchaser and the executive officers and directors of Killearn have agreed to vote their shares in proportion to the vote cast by the unaffiliated shareholders. The Board believed that such safeguards were sufficient to assure that the Merger is fair to, and in the best interests of Killearn's unaffiliated shareholders. Fairness of the Merger. Based on the factors set forth above, Killearn believes that the consideration to be received by its unaffiliated shareholders pursuant to the Merger is fair from a financial point of view. Purchaser's and the Williams Family's Purpose and Reasons for the Merger The purpose of the Purchaser and the Williams Family for engaging in the Merger is to gain 100% ownership of Killearn. After gaining 100% control of Killearn, the Purchaser intends to make a subchapter S election and continue to operate as an S-corporation. This restructuring has certain tax advantages over the traditional C-corporation. An S-corporation is effectively taxed as a partnership and therefore avoids taxation at both the corporate level and the shareholder level. Instead, the income is only taxable to the shareholders; there is no separate entity-level tax. The Purchaser and the Williams Family believe that the after-tax return from Killearn's future business activities can be improved by making this election. Also, because of the late stage of development of Killearn's assets, Killearn is faced with the decision to either wind-down its development operations or seek additional investment projects and commit to an additional 10-20 year development cycle. While the Purchaser and the Williams Family believe that there will be significant opportunities associated with their investment in Killearn, there are also substantial risks that such opportunities may not be fully realized. This assessment is based upon publicly available information regarding Killearn, the Purchaser's and the Williams Family's due diligence investigation of Killearn and the Purchaser's and the Williams Family's experience. Therefore, given the advantages of a subchapter S election and the timing issues discussed above, the Purchaser and the Williams Family feel that this is an appropriate time to undertake this acquisition. The proposed acquisition of Killearn has been structured as a merger in order to permit the acquisition of all of Killearn's common stock. Neither the Purchaser nor the Williams Family considered other alternatives to the structure of the transaction, except as described under "Special Factors -- Background of the Merger" on page ___. Opinion of Financial Advisor American Express Tax & Business Services, Inc. ("American Express") has acted as the sole financial advisor to the special committee in connection with the Merger and has assisted the special committee in its examination of the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the public shareholders of Killearn of the consideration to be received by them in the Merger. As used herein and in the opinion of American Express, the term "public shareholders" means all shareholders of Killearn other than the Purchaser and the Williams Family. American Express indicated to the special committee that it was prepared to render its opinion as to the fairness of the merger consideration as proposed by the Purchaser to Killearn's public shareholders from a financial point of view on April 19, 1999, subject to American Express' review of drafts of the Merger Agreement and this Proxy Statement. On May 7, 1999, American Express delivered its oral opinion to the special committee and the Board of Directors to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion, the $5.50 per share cash consideration to be received in the Merger is fair to the public shareholders of Killearn from a financial point of view. The full text of American Express' written opinion, which sets forth the assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered and scope of review by American Express in rendering its opinion, was delivered on May 10, 1999 and is attached as Appendix B to this Proxy Statement and is incorporated herein by reference. Shareholders are urged to read the American Express opinion in its entirety. In addition, a copy of the written report presented by American Express to the special committee was filed as an exhibit to the Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 ("Schedule 13E-3") under the Exchange Act filed by Killearn, with the Commission with respect to the transactions described in this Proxy Statement. Copies of the Schedule 13E-3 are available for inspection and copying at the principal executive offices of Killearn during regular business hours by any interested shareholder of Killearn, or a representative who has been so designated in writing, and may be inspected and copied, or obtained by mail, in the manner specified in "Available Information". The summary set forth below does not purport to be a complete description of such materials or presentations by American Express. In arriving at its opinion, American Express (i) considered financial information with respect to the assets of Killearn through January 31, 1999; (ii) reviewed certain financial analyses and forecasts of sales and development activities; (iii) analyzed publicly available information; (iv) held discussions with management of Killearn; (v) reviewed appraisals and sales documents; (vi) reviewed historical stock market prices and trading volumes of Killearn common stock; (vii) reviewed drafts of the Merger Agreement; and (viii) made such other studies and inquiries and considered such other data as it deemed relevant. In addition, American Express relied, without independent verification, on the accuracy and completeness of all financial and other information that was publicly available or furnished to it by Killearn. American Express further assumed that projections of sales and related costs examined by American Express were reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of Killearn's management as to the future performance of Killearn. In addition, in accordance with the special committee's instructions regarding American Express' review of the Merger, American Express did not advise the special committee with respect to alternatives to the Merger. No other limitations were imposed by the special committee or the Board upon American Express with respect to the investigations made or procedures followed by American Express in rendering its opinion. American Express employed several analytical methodologies and no one method of analysis should be regarded as critical to the overall conclusion it has reached. Each analytical technique has inherent strengths and limitations, and the nature of the available information may further affect the value of particular techniques. Its conclusion is based on all the analyses and factors it considered taken as a whole and also on application of its experience. Such conclusions often involve significant elements of judgment and qualitative as well as quantitative analysis. Hence, it expresses no opinion as to the probative force standing alone, of any one or more parts of the material that follows. Its only opinion is the formal written opinion that it has expressed as to the fairness from a financial point of view of the consideration being paid in the Merger. Its opinion, analyses and all conclusions drawn from such analyses are necessarily based upon market, economic and other conditions that exist and can be evaluated as of the date thereof, and on information available to it as of the date thereof. In delivering its opinion and making its presentations to the special committee and the Board of Directors on May 7, 1999, American Express considered and presented the financial and comparative analyses of various indicators of value of Killearn set forth below. This financial and comparative analyses, including the ranges of share values implied by such analyses, were based in part upon projections prepared by Killearn. American Express' financial analyses employed the following two types of approaches: (i) a comparative company analysis, and (ii) a discounted cash flow analysis. American Express considered, and to some degree utilized, all of the analyses described below. American Express considered but rejected use of break-up or liquidation value analysis. Comparable Company Analysis. In the comparable company analysis, American Express compared Killearn's financial performance against that of publicly traded companies, whose primary operations involved land development. Although American Express was unable to locate information on specific companies substantially similar to Killearn, it was able use information compiled by Ibbotson and Associates with respect to composite, industry-wide information for real estate and land development companies. Using these industry composite figures, American Express was able to calculate values for Killearn based on price-earnings ratios, price-sales ratios, price-cash ratios and market-to-book ratios. American Express' analysis generated values ranging from $3.13 to $78.21 per share. American Express concluded that the operations of Killearn do not support the values implied by most of these types of analysis. In comparing Killearn's financial performance over the most recent three years and the most recent twelve month period against that of the composite information, American Express observed that Killearn was much smaller than the median companies in, among other areas, revenues, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and earnings before interest and taxes. In addition, since Killearn's assets were in the late stages of development, it would need to commit to additional investments in new properties with an investment horizon of 10-20 years in order to maintain its current levels of sales. Therefore any analysis based on earnings or sales artificially inflates the value attributable to Killearn. However, the market-to-book ratios produced more reasonable values ranging from $3.13 to $9.55. These composite valuations imply that the $5.50 per share offered by the Purchaser is within the range of comparable company valuations. Discounted Cash Flow Analysis. American Express used discounted cash flow analysis to discount Killearn's projected cumulative cash flows to a present value. This analysis assumed the continued viability of Killearn, that it will develop and sell land for amounts approximating those in the forecasts, and will have sufficient capital to acquire and develop land in the future. In order to calculate these discounted values American Express used forecasts and estimates of development and sales of land parcels currently held by Killearn. In determining its estimate of Killearn's land values, American Express reviewed independent appraisal reports which had been conducted over the last five years and estimates provided by the management of Killearn. The independent appraisals of Killearn's land were conducted by Bob Sorrells & Associates, and John K. Selfe III independent real estate appraisers. These appraisals were conducted for various banks in connection with proposed bank loans to be made by such banks to Killearn. As a result, the independent appraisers were chosen by these banks, but Killearn paid the real estate appraisal firm as required by the banks. All of the appraisals prepared by the real estate appraisal firm are available for inspection at Killearn's principal executive offices during Killearn's regular business hours by any interested stockholder of Killearn or such stockholder's representative who has been so designated in writing. Of these various estimates of land value, management agreed with all of the appraisals except for one which appraised approximately 75 acres of commercial land. This appraisal (the "Appraisal") was prepared in October 1998 by Bob Sorrells & Associates and was the basis of the land sales projections used by American Express. In preparing the Appraisal, the appraiser inspected the land held by Killearn and made assumptions regarding the construction of improvements to the land including the construction of a public highway through a portion of the property. The Appraisal concluded that with these improvements the land could be sold in commercial tracts ranging from $100,000 to $325,000 per acre. These estimates were based on sales of land in an area approximately 10 miles closer to downtown Atlanta. The Appraisal then concluded that the total acreage, when sold, would generate approximately $16,830,000 of sale proceeds for Killearn. The management estimates were based on historical land sales by Killearn to independent, unaffiliated buyers, including a local utility, Management disagreed with the figures included in the Appraisal because the appraiser assumed that much of the land would be sold after the construction of the public highway and would therefore generate higher sales prices. In addition, management felt that the historical sales prices of properties owned by Killearn were better indicators of the value of Killearn's properties than historical sale prices obtained for other properties which had different amenities and were located closer to downtown Atlanta. Therefore, management concluded that lots would sell for prices between $100,000 to $250,000 per acre, for total proceeds of approximately $9,870.000. Finally, American Express considered both of these estimates of future sales proceeds and conducted its own general inspection of Killearn's properties and the comparable properties contained in the Appraisal. Based upon its inspection, it agreed with management that some of the comparable properties contained in the Appraisal are different and warrant lower land values than given by the appraiser. However, based on its own experience valuing real estate assets, it assigned values to certain tracts of land that were higher than management's estimates. Therefore, it calculated its own sales value base on historical data and its estimation of the effect of improvements to the property and concluded that the tract prices would range from $100,000 to $275,000, for total proceeds of $13,530,000. From these sets of estimates (American Express', Killearn's management, and the Appraisal, American Express deducted forecasts and projections of commissions, general and administrative expenses, income taxes and other amounts incident to the sale of the land or operation of Killearn to arrive at future estimated cash flows. These cash flows were discounted to their present value using a 12% discount rate which American Express estimated to be the appropriate rate for an investment in a similar company. It arrived at this discount rate by considering the effects of inflation, security, liquidity, and returns on high-grade investments such as United States Treasury Bonds. It also noted that 12% was consistent with ranges of discount rates on similar investments as provided by Ibbotson and Associates and ranges used by certain real estate appraisers of Killearn's properties. American Express' analysis resulted in values per share of Killearn common stock under each of these scenarios of $4.79 for the American Express case, $6.27 per the Appraisal and $2.92 per Killearn management's estimates. The difference in these values resulted from the disputed projections of land values as discussed above . American Express concluded that its base case determination, and therefore the $5.50 per share offered by the Purchaser, was therefore an appropriate and reasonable estimate of discounted value. Comparable Sales Analysis. American Express was unable to identify recent sales of similar companies with which to complete this analysis. Liquidation Analyses. American Express considered, but rejected, use of liquidation value analyses which assume the sale of land "as is", with no further development cost and a significant reduction of general and administrative costs. The overall result of this analysis was that the decrease in sales value of the land significantly outweighed any savings from cessation of development activity. Also, because of the cessation of development activity, the deferred tax liability, created out of timing differences in the capitalization of real estate taxes and interest during development, converts into a tax payable and further reduces the value of the stock. The resulting value per share of a liquidation approaches zero. Other. American Express is regularly engaged in the valuation of businesses in connection with mergers and acquisitions, private placements and valuations for estate, corporate and other purposes. The special committee selected American Express to act as its financial advisor in connection with the Merger on the basis of American Express' reputation and its experience in transactions of this type. In connection with its financial advisory services and the delivery of its opinion, American Express received a fee of $25,000, which fee was not contingent upon a favorable opinion. In addition, Killearn agreed to reimburse American Express for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred during its engagement and to indemnify American Express and hold them harmless against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities under the federal securities laws, relating to, or arising out of, its rendering of services under its engagement. Conflicts of Interest In considering the recommendations of the special committee and Board of Directors, Killearn's shareholders should be aware that J.T. Williams, Jr. and David K. Williams, who are both members of the Board of Directors have interests in the Merger that are different from the interests of Killearn shareholders generally and which may create potential conflicts of interest. Ownership of Purchaser. Two directors of Killearn, J.T. Williams, Jr. and David K. Williams, own, in the aggregate, approximately 76% of the outstanding capital stock of the Purchaser. In addition, two other sons of J.T. Williams, Jr., John R. Williams and J.T. Williams, III, own the remainder of the outstanding capital stock of the Purchaser. Director and Officer Indemnification and Insurance. The Merger Agreement provides that the Surviving Corporation generally will indemnify all directors and officers of Killearn to the fullest extent permitted by Florida law and in the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Killearn, as in effect as of the date of the Merger Agreement, from and against all liabilities, costs, expenses and claims arising out of actions taken prior to the Merger in performance of their duties as directors and officers of Killearn. The Merger Agreement further provides that, except as may be limited by applicable law, for a period of six years after the Merger the indemnification obligations set forth in Killearn's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws shall survive the Merger and shall not be amended or modified by either Killearn or the Surviving Corporation in a manner adverse to the rights of former and current officers and directors of Killearn with respect to matters occurring prior to the Merger. In addition, the Merger Agreement provides that the Surviving Corporation will maintain in effect, for three years or until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations but in no event longer than four years, after the Merger to maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance for the benefit of its directors and officers who are currently covered under Killearn's directors' and officers' liability insurance on terms not materially less favorable than the existing insurance coverage; provided, however, the Surviving Corporation is not required to pay an annual premium in excess of 200% of the last annual premium paid by Killearn prior to the date of the Merger Agreement. Special Committee and Board Compensation. Compensation paid to the members of the special committee and the Board for services rendered in their capacity as members of the special committee of the Board for the period from December 1998 through May 1999, including, among other things, their analysis and evaluation of the proposal of the Purchaser as well as their negotiation of the terms of the Merger Agreement was $9,000 for each of Mr. Horne and Mr. Pope. This compensation was paid whether or not the special committee approved the Merger. Similar compensation was given to the members of the special committee for their service on committees in 1997, including service on a committee to consider a merger offer by PTI even though the merger was not consummated. THE SPECIAL MEETING Date, Time and Place The special meeting will be held on August 9, 1999, at 10:00 a.m., local time, at Killearn's offices 385 Country Club Drive, Stockbridge, Georgia. At the special meeting, Killearn shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and the Merger. Record Date; Voting Power; Quorum Shareholders of record of Killearn common stock at the close of business on June 15, 1999 are entitled to notice of and to vote at the special meeting. As of the record date, there were 887,412 shares of Killearn common stock issued and outstanding held by approximately 500 holders of record. Holders of record of Killearn common stock on the record date are entitled to one vote per share on any matter that may properly come before the special meeting. The representation, in person or by proxy, of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Killearn common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Vote Required; Security Ownership of Management Under Florida law, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Killearn common stock outstanding on the record date is required to approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger. However, the Purchaser and each of the executive officers and directors of Killearn have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Merger Agreement in the same proportion as the other shareholders of Killearn. As a result, a vote of a majority of the unaffiliated shareholders is required to approve the Merger. For purposes of determining whether the Merger Agreement and the Merger have received a majority vote, abstentions and broker non-votes (shares held in "street name" through a broker or other nominee as to which voting instructions with regards to the Merger Agreement and the Merger have not been received from the beneficial owners and such broker or other nominee is not permitted to exercise voting discretion with regards to the Merger Agreement or the Merger) will not be included in the vote total, although an abstention and a broker non-vote will have the effect of a vote against the Merger Agreement and the Merger. Abstentions and broker non-votes will, however, be counted for determining whether there is a quorum. As of the record date for the special meeting, Killearn's executive officers and directors owned, in the aggregate, 237,133 shares of Killearn common stock or 26.7 % of the votes represented by the shares of Killearn common stock then outstanding. At the special meeting, Killearn will tally the votes of the unaffiliated shareholders and then the Purchaser and the executive officers and directors of Killearn will vote their shares in the same portion as the votes cast by the unaffiliated shareholders. See "Beneficial Ownership of Common Stock" on page ___. Proxies Shareholders are requested to complete, date and sign the accompanying form of proxy and return it promptly in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. Any shareholder giving a proxy pursuant to this solicitation has the power to revoke it at any time before it is voted at the special meeting. A later dated proxy or written notice of revocation given prior to the vote at the special meeting to the Secretary of Killearn will serve to revoke such proxy. Also, a shareholder who attends the special meeting in person may, if he or she wishes, vote by ballot at the special meeting, thereby canceling any proxy previously given. Mere presence at the special meeting will not serve to revoke any proxy previously given. Solicitation of Proxies In addition to the use of mails, proxies may be solicited by persons regularly employed by Killearn, by personal interview, telephone and telegraph. Such persons will receive no additional compensation for such services, but will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with such services. Arrangements may also be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for the forwarding of solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of shares of common stock held of record by such persons, and Killearn may reimburse such persons for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection therewith. Killearn will bear the costs of the special meeting and of soliciting proxies therefor. Killearn may engage a proxy solicitor to assist in the solicitation of proxies. THE MERGER Mechanics of the Merger. In the Merger: Killearn will be merged into Merger Sub, and Merger Sub will be the Surviving Corporation; and each share of Killearn's common stock (other than shares held by the Purchaser and the Williams Family) will be converted into the right to receive $5.50 in cash, without interest. Consequences of the Merger. As a result of the Merger: the entire equity interest in Killearn will be owned by the Purchaser; the unaffiliated shareholders of Killearn will no longer have any interest in, and will not be shareholders of Killearn, and therefore will not participate in its future earnings or growth; the Purchaser will have the opportunity to benefit from any earnings and growth of Killearn, and will bear the risk of any decrease in Killearn's value; Killearn's common stock will no longer be traded on The American Stock Exchange, Inc., price quotations will no longer be available and the registration of Killearn's common stock under the Exchange Act will be terminated. After such registration is terminated, Killearn will no longer be required to file periodic reports with the Commission; the present Board of Directors of Killearn will be replaced by the Board of Directors of Merger Sub which is comprised of J.T. Williams, Jr., David K. Williams, John R. Williams and J.T. Williams, III; the officers of Killearn will be the officers of the Surviving Corporation after the effective time of the Merger. See "Certain Information Concerning Merger Sub and the Purchaser" on page ____. The Purchaser expects that, following consummation of the Merger, the business and operations of Killearn will be continued substantially as they are currently being conducted. The Board of Directors and management of Killearn will, however, continue to evaluate Killearn's business, operations, corporate structure and organization and will make such changes as they deem appropriate. Financing The total amount of funds necessary to fund the Merger is expected to be approximately $3.6 million. These funds are expected to come from the following sources: the 315,430 shares of Killearn common stock owned by Wimberly Investment Funds, L.P. will be paid for by the cancellation of $1,734,865 (or $5.50 per share a portion of the indebtedness (including accrued and unpaid interest) owed by Wimberly to the Purchaser; the 132,000 shares of Killearn common stock owned by Proactive Technologies, Inc. will be paid for by the cancellation of $726,000 (or $5.50 per share) a portion of indebtedness (including accrued and unpaid interest) owed by PTI to the Purchaser; approximately $900,000 will be borrowed from American Century Bank as described below; and the balance of the merger consideration will be paid with cash of the Purchaser on hand at the effective time of the Merger estimated to be approximately $250,000. Cancellation of Indebtedness. Pursuant to secured promissory notes, the Purchaser has loaned to Wimberly approximately $2 million. As security for the notes and pursuant to two separate security agreements, Wimberly granted the Purchaser a security interest in 315,430 shares of Killearn common stock held by Wimberly. The note originally matured in January 1999 and has since been extended twice. The notes are earning interest at a rate of 8.5% per annum. Similarly, the Purchaser has previously purchased three promissory notes under which PTI owes a total of approximately $1.4 million (including accrued and unpaid interest). Pursuant to pledge agreements, the notes are secured by 132,000 shares of Killearn common stock held by PTI. The notes bear interest at the prime rate plus 1%. The purchase of the 315,430 shares of Killearn common stock held by Wimberly and the 132,000 shares of Killearn common stock held by PTI will be paid for by the cancellation of a portion of the indebtedness owed by each to the Purchaser. Otherwise, the consideration received by Wimberly and PTI is in no way different than the consideration received by the other shareholders of Killearn (other than the shares held by the Purchaser and the Williams Family). Further, the tax consequences of the Merger shall be the same on Wimberly and PTI as the other shareholders of Killearn (other than the shares held by the Purchaser and the Williams Family). Debt Financing. The Purchaser has a revolving line of credit with American Century Bank in the aggregate amount of $2.0 million having a final maturity date occurring on or before March 22, 2000 (the "Line of Credit"). Approximately, $1.1 million has been previously borrowed under the Line of Credit and the balance in the amount of $900,000 available under the Line of Credit will be used to fund the Merger. The Line of Credit is secured by 26.77 acres of real estate of the Purchaser. The interest rate under the Line of Credit is the prime rate plus 1/2 percentage points. The documents for the Line of Credit contain affirmative, negative and financial covenants and events of default customary for credit facilities of a size and type similar to the Line of Credit. Draws under the Line of Credit are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions for similar financing. Federal Income Tax Consequences There will be federal income tax consequences of the Merger to the holders of the Killearn common stock. The material tax consequences of the Merger are summarized in the following discussion, which is based on the current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, existing and proposed Treasury Regulations thereunder and current administrative rulings and court decisions, all of which are subject to change. Any change, which may or may not be retroactive, could alter the tax consequences to the holders of Killearn common stock as described herein. The following discussion is addressed to a shareholder that holds Killearn common stock as a capital asset and that, for federal income tax purposes, is a U.S. citizen or resident or a domestic corporation, partnership, trust or estate. This summary does not purport to deal with all aspects of taxation that may be relevant to a particular shareholder in light of his, her or its particular circumstances or to certain types of taxpayers subject to special treatment under the federal income tax law, including financial institutions, broker-dealers, foreign persons, persons holding Killearn common stock as part of a straddle, "synthetic security" or other integrated investment (including a "conversion transaction") or persons who acquired their Killearn common stock through the exercise of an employee stock option or otherwise as compensation. A holder of Killearn common stock will recognize capital gain or loss for federal income tax purposes on each share of Killearn common stock exchanged for the merger consideration pursuant to the Merger. The amount of gain or loss recognized on a share will be equal to the difference between $5.50 and the holder's basis in the share. The gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss in the case of shares held for more than one year as of the date of the Merger. In the case of individuals, trusts and estates, net capital gain for a taxable year (that is, the excess of net long-term capital gain for the taxable year over any net short-term capital loss for the year) is subject to a maximum federal income tax rate of 20%. Receipt of the cash merger consideration in exchange for Killearn common stock pursuant to the Merger also may be a taxable transaction under applicable state, local and foreign tax laws. A holder of Killearn common stock may be subject to backup withholding at the rate of 31% with respect to the merger consideration received pursuant to the Merger, unless the holder (a) is a corporation or comes within certain other exempt categories and, when required, demonstrates that fact or (b) provides a correct taxpayer identification number ("TIN"), certifies as to no loss of exemption from backup withholding and otherwise complies with the applicable requirements of the backup withholdings rules. To prevent the possibility of backup withholding on payments made to certain holders with respect to shares of Killearn common stock pursuant to the Merger, each holder must provide the paying agent (the "Paying Agent") with his, her or its correct TIN by completing a Form W-9 or Substitute Form W-9. A holder of Killearn common stock that does not provide his, her or its correct TIN may be subject to penalties imposed by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"), as well as to backup withholding. Any amount withheld under these rules will be refundable or creditable against the holder's federal income tax liability, provided the required information is furnished to the IRS. Killearn (or its agent) will report to the holders of Killearn common stock and to the IRS the amount of any "reportable payments," as defined in Section 3406 of the Code, and the amount of tax, if any, withheld with respect thereto. The federal income tax consequences set forth in this proxy statement are for general information only. The tax consequences for a particular shareholder will depend upon the facts and circumstances applicable to that shareholder. Accordingly, each shareholder is urged to consult his, her or its own tax adviser to determine the tax consequences of the Merger to the shareholder in light of his, her or its particular circumstances, including the applicability and effect of state, local, foreign and other tax laws and any possible changes in those laws. The foregoing discussion may not apply to shares received pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation. Accounting Treatment Killearn expects that the Merger will be accounted for as a recapitalization for accounting purposes because it will not constitute a change of control under generally accepted accounting principles. As a result, the historical cost basis of Killearn's assets and liabilities will not change. The aggregate cost of repurchasing the common stock will be accounted for as a charge to shareholders' equity. Dissenters' Appraisal Rights Killearn's shareholders are not entitled under the Florida law or Killearn's articles of incorporation to exercise dissenters' appraisal rights in connection with the Merger. Therefore, if a shareholder votes against, or abstains from voting for, the Merger and a majority of shareholders approve the Merger, then the dissenting or abstaining shareholder will receive the Merger Consideration in exchange for their shares. Delisting and Deregistration of Common Stock Following the Merger, Killearn's common stock will be no longer traded on The American Stock Exchange, Inc., price quotations will no longer be available and the registration of Killearn's common stock under the Exchange Act will be terminated. After such registration is terminated, Killearn will no longer be required to file periodic reports with the Commission. Regulatory Approvals Killearn is not aware of any material governmental or regulatory approvals which are required for consummation of the Merger. THE MERGER AGREEMENT Overview The terms and conditions of the Merger are set forth in the Merger Agreement, the complete text of which is attached as Appendix A to this proxy statement and is incorporated herein by reference. The summary of the Merger Agreement contained in this proxy statement does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of such document. In the Merger: Killearn will be merged into Merger Sub, and the Merger Sub will be the Surviving Corporation upon completion of the Merger; and each share of Killearn's common stock (other than shares held by the Purchaser and the Williams Family) will be converted into the right to receive $5.50 in cash, without interest. Exchange of Certificates Representing Common Stock Instructions with regard to the surrender of Killearn's stock certificates, together with a letter of transmittal to be used for this purpose, will be mailed to Killearn's shareholders as promptly as practicable after the completion of the Merger. In order to receive the cash merger consideration, shareholders will be required to surrender their stock certificates, together with a duly completed and executed letter of transmittal, to a Paying Agent designated by Merger Sub and approved by Killearn. Promptly after completion of the Merger, the cash merger consideration will be deposited in trust with the Paying Agent. Upon receipt of such stock certificates and letter of transmittal, the Paying Agent will deliver the cash merger consideration to the registered holder or his transferee of the shares of Killearn's common stock. No interest will be paid or accrued on the amounts payable upon the surrender of stock certificates. Shareholders should not submit their stock certificates for exchange until the instructions and letter of transmittal are received. After the effective time of the Merger, there will be no further transfers on the stock transfer books of Killearn of the shares of Killearn's common stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Merger. If a certificate representing such shares is presented for transfer, subject to compliance with the requisite transmittal procedures, it will be canceled and exchanged for the merger consideration. Each certificate representing shares of Killearn's common stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will, at such time, be deemed for all purposes to represent only the right to receive the merger consideration into which the shares of Killearn's common stock represented by such certificate were converted in the Merger. Any merger consideration delivered or made available to the Paying Agent and not exchanged for stock certificates within 180 days after the Merger will be returned by the Paying Agent to the Surviving Corporation, which will thereafter act as Paying Agent. If any certificates representing shares of Killearn common stock are not surrendered within five years after the Merger then the unclaimed merger consideration payable in exchange for such certificates shall, to the extent permitted under applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interests of any person previously entitled thereto. None of the Merger Sub, the Purchaser, Killearn nor the Paying Agent will be liable to a holder of shares of Killearn's common stock for any of the cash merger consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. Representations and Warranties Killearn has made representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement regarding, among other things its organization and good standing, authority to enter into the transactions, its capitalization, the content and submission of forms and reports required to be filed by Killearn with the Commission, requisite governmental and other consents and approvals, and compliance with all applicable laws. Each of Merger Sub and Purchaser have made representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement regarding, among other things, its organization and good standing, authority to enter into the transactions, the requisite governmental and other consents and approvals, financing, and the accuracy of information supplied by it for submission on forms and reports required to be filed by Killearn with the Commission. Conduct of Business Pending the Merger Killearn has agreed that during the period from the date of the Merger Agreement to the effective time of the Merger, except as otherwise provided in the Merger Agreement, unless consented to by Purchaser, it shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries, to, among other things, conduct its business in the ordinary course and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to preserve intact its current business organizations, keep available the services of its current officers, employees and consultants, preserve its relationships with customers, suppliers, contractors and other persons with which it or its subsidiaries has significant business relations and maintain all insurance necessary to the conduct of its business as currently conducted. Killearn has further agreed that it shall not, and shall cause its subsidiaries not to, without the prior written consent of Purchaser: dispose of or encumber any of its properties and assets, other than sales in the ordinary course of business and collections of receivables in the ordinary course of business; issue, sell, or acquire any shares of the capital stock of the Killearn or securities convertible into, or rights, warrants or options (including employee stock options) to acquire, any such shares or other convertible securities; split, combine or reclassify any shares of its common stock or declare any dividends on or make other distributions; and incur, assume or prepay any long-term debt or, except in the ordinary course of business, incur or assume any short-term debt; assume, guarantee, endorse or otherwise become liable or responsible for the obligations of any other person; or make any loans, advances or capital contributions to, or investments in, any other person. No Solicitation The Merger Agreement prohibits Killearn, its subsidiaries, and any of Killearn's or its subsidiaries' directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives from directly or indirectly: (i) initiating, soliciting, or encouraging any inquiries, discussions or making any proposal with respect to any merger, consolidation or other business combination involving Killearn or any acquisition of any kind of a material portion of the assets or capital stock of Killearn or its subsidiaries (a "Takeover Proposal"); or (ii) negotiating, exploring or otherwise communicating in any way with any third party with respect to any Takeover Proposal or entering into or consummating any agreement arrangement or understanding requiring it to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger. However, prior to the special meeting (or any postponement thereof), Killearn may, if Killearn's Board of Directors determines in good faith by a majority vote, based upon the advice of its outside counsel, that failing to take such action would constitute a breach of the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors under applicable law, in response to a Takeover Proposal from any person that was not solicited by Killearn and that did not otherwise result from the breach of Killearn's obligations to refrain from soliciting any Takeover Proposal, and upon notifying Merger Sub of the particulars of such Takeover Proposal and otherwise complying with these obligations, Killearn may participate in discussion or negotiations with such person regarding any Takeover Proposal. Indemnification The Merger Agreement provides that the Surviving Corporation generally will indemnify all directors and officers of Killearn to the fullest extent permitted by Florida law and in the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Killearn, as in effect as of the date of the Merger Agreement, from and against all liabilities, costs expenses and claims arising out of actions taken prior to the effective time of the Merger in performance of their duties as directors and officers of Killearn in connection with the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement further provides that, except as may be limited by applicable law, for a period of six years from and after the effective time of the Merger the indemnification obligations set forth in Killearn's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws shall survive the Merger and shall not be amended or modified by either Killearn or the Surviving Corporation in a manner adverse to the rights of former and current officers and directors of Killearn with respect to matters occurring prior to the effective time of the Merger. Directors' and Officers' Liability Insurance The Merger Agreement provides that the Surviving Corporation shall maintain in effect, for three years or until the applicable statute of limitations expires but in no event longer than four years after the Merger, directors' and officers' liability insurance policies covering the persons who are currently covered in their capacities as such directors and officers (the "Covered Parties") by Killearn's current directors' and officers' policies and on terms not materially less favorable than the existing insurance coverage with respect to matters occurring prior to the Merger; provided, however, in the event the annual premium for such coverage exceeds an amount equal to 200% of the last annual premium paid immediately prior to the date hereof by Killearn for such coverage, the Surviving Corporation shall notify the Covered Parties who shall then elect as a group either (i) to allow the Surviving Corporation to obtain as much comparable insurance as possible for an annual premium equal to 200% of the last annual premium paid immediately prior to the date hereof by Killearn, or (ii) to seek coverage from another carrier, in which event the Surviving Corporation shall reimburse the Covered Parties the cost of such alternative coverage up to an amount equal to 200% of the last annual premium paid immediately prior to the date hereof by the Killearn for such coverage. Conditions to the Merger Each party's respective obligations to effect the Merger is subject to satisfaction of the following conditions: the approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Killearn's common stock in accordance with Florida Law and Killearn's Articles of Incorporation; no order, statute, rule, regulation, executive order, stay, decree, judgment or injunction shall have been enacted, entered, issued, promulgated or enforced by any court or governmental authority which prohibits or materially and adversely restricts the consummation of the Merger; and The obligations of Merger Sub and the Purchaser, on the one hand, and Killearn, on the other hand, to consummate the Merger are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of further conditions including: Killearn, Merger Sub and the Purchaser, as the case may be, shall have performed all of its obligations under the Merger Agreement required to be performed by it at or prior to the effective time of the Merger; each of the representations and warranties of Killearn, Merger Sub and the Purchaser, as the case may be, contained in the Merger Agreement shall be true and correct, in each case as of the Closing Date as if made at and as of such time; and Termination of Merger Agreement The Merger Agreement may be terminated and the Merger abandoned, at any time prior to the effective time of the Merger, whether before or after approval by Killearn's shareholders: by the mutual written consent of Killearn and the Purchaser; by either the Purchaser or Killearn if the Merger has not been consummated by December 31, 1999, unless the failure by the terminating party to fulfill any obligation under the Merger Agreement caused or resulted in the failure of the Merger to be consummated by December 31, 1999; by either the Purchaser or Killearn, if Killearn's Board of Directors (or any committee thereof), withdraws or modifies or refrains from giving its approval or recommendation of the Merger Agreement or the Merger; automatically, without action by any party thereto, if the shareholders of Killearn do not approve the Merger Agreement at the special meeting; by either Killearn or the Purchaser if the other party breaches any of its representations, warranties and agreements under the Merger Agreement and such breach is not cured within 10 days of notice; and by Killearn subsequent to a Takeover Proposal if its special committee determines in good faith by a majority vote based upon the advice of its outside counsel that the Board is required to do so by its fiduciary obligations, and after it notifies the Purchaser of the Takeover Proposal. Fees and Expenses Killearn and Merger Sub will pay their own fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement (except that Killearn will bear all expenses incurred in connection with this proxy statement).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS A. Parent has proposed to the Company's Board of Directors that the Company merge with and into Sub (the "Merger"), with the holders of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, par value $0.10 per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock") not currently owned by Parent or shareholders of Parent receiving a cash payment of $5.50 in exchange for each of their shares of Common Stock. B. A Special Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Special Committee") has determined that the Merger is fair to, and in the best interests of, the Public Shareholders (as defined in Section 2.1), and has recommended the approval and adoption of this Agreement to the Company's Board of Directors. C. The Boards of Directors of Parent, Sub and the Company have approved and adopted this Agreement and approved the Merger upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. D. The Company's Board of Directors believes it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to consummate the Merger upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Parent, Sub and the Company agree as follows: ARTICLE 1 THE MERGER 1.1. The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the General Corporation Act of the State of Florida (the "Florida Business Corporation Act") and Georgia Business Corporation Code of the State of Georgia (the "Georgia Business Corporation Code"), at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.2), the Company shall be merged with and into Sub and the separate existence of the Company shall thereupon cease, with Sub being the surviving corporation in the Merger (the "Surviving Corporation"). 1.2. Effective Time of the Merger. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Merger shall become effective when the Department of State of the State of Florida (the "Florida Department of State") files the articles of merger or other appropriate documents in accordance with the Florida Business Corporation Act, and the Georgia Secretary of State files the articles of merger or other appropriate documents in accordance with the Georgia Business Corporation Code, or such other date as shall be specified in the articles of merger, which articles of merger shall be delivered by Sub and the Company to the Florida Department of State and the Georgia Secretary of State as soon as practicable after the closing of the Merger contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1. When used in this Agreement, the term "Effective Time" shall mean the date and time at which such articles are so filed. 1.3. Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the Florida Business Corporation Act and the Georgia Business Corporation Code. 1.4. Articles of Incorporation. The Articles of Incorporation of Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation. 1.5. Bylaws. The Bylaws of Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. 1.6. Directors. The directors of Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Corporation, who shall serve until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified in the manner provided in the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, or as otherwise provided by law. 1.7. Officers. The officers of the Surviving Corporation shall initially consist of the officers of Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, until their successors are duly elected and qualified in the manner provided in the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, or as otherwise provided by law. ARTICLE 2 CONVERSION OF SHARES 2.1. Conversion of Shares. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder thereof: (a) All shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") that are held by any wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and any Shares held by Parent, Sub, any other subsidiary of Parent or any shareholder of Parent, shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist and no payment shall be made with respect thereto. (b) Each remaining outstanding Share shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into the right to receive $5.50 in cash, without any interest thereon, upon surrender of the certificate representing such Share (such cash amount is referred to herein as the "Merger Consideration; the Shares for which the Merger Consideration is to be paid are referred to herein as the "Public Shares" and the holders thereof are referred to herein as the "Public Shareholders"). At the Effective Time, all such Public Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and the Public Shareholders shall cease to have any rights as shareholders of the Company except the right to receive the Merger Consideration. 2.2. Exchange of Certificates. (a) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Sub shall deposit in trust with a bank or trust company designated by Parent ("Paying Agent"), cash in an aggregate amount equal to the product of (x) the number of Public Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (y) the Merger Consideration (such amount being hereinafter referred to as the "Exchange Fund"). Paying Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, make the payments provided for in Section 2.1(b) out of the Exchange Fund. Paying Agent shall invest the Exchange Fund, as Parent directs, in direct obligations of the United States of America, obligations for which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is pledged to provide for the payment of all principal and interest or commercial paper obligations receiving the highest rating from either Moody's Investors Services, Inc. or Standard & Poor's, a division of The McGraw Hill Companies, or a combination thereof, provided that, in any such case, no instrument shall have a maturity exceeding 3 months. Any net profit resulting from, or interest or income produced by, such investments shall be payable to Parent. Parent shall replace any monies lost through any investment made pursuant to this Section 2.2. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose except as provided in this Agreement. (b) Promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause Paying Agent to mail to each record holder of certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Public Shares (the "Certificates), a form letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to Paying Agent) and instructions for use in surrendering Certificates and receiving payment therefor. Upon surrender to Paying Agent of a Certificate, together with a properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor cash in an amount equal to the product of the number of Public Shares represented by such Certificate and the Merger Consideration, less any applicable withholding tax, and such Certificate shall forthwith be canceled. In the event any Certificate shall have been lost or destroyed, Paying Agent, subject to such other reasonable conditions as Parent may impose (including the posting of an indemnity bond or other surety in favor of Sub with respect to the Certificates alleged to be lost or destroyed), shall be authorized to accept an affidavit from the record holder of such Certificate in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent. No interest shall be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender of the Certificates. If payment is to be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate surrendered is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other tax required by reason of the payment to a person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered or establish to the satisfaction of the Paying Agent and Parent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2(b), each Certificate shall represent for all purposes only the right to receive the Merger Consideration into which the Shares evidenced by the Certificates shall have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1(b), without any interest thereon. 2.3. Closing of Company Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and no transfer of Shares shall thereafter be made. If, after the Effective Time, certificates representing Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or Paying Agent, they shall be canceled and exchanged for cash as provided herein. 2.4. Dissenting Shares. In accordance with the Florida Business Corporation Act, no shareholder shall have dissenter or appraisal rights with respect to the Common Stock. 2.5. Withholding Rights. Sub and Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the amounts payable (including the Merger Consideration) pursuant to this Agreement to any Public Shareholder such amounts as Parent, Sub or Paying Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under applicable tax law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by Parent, Sub or Paying Agent, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the relevant Public Shareholder.

(b) The Company shall maintain in effect, for three years or until the applicable statute of limitations expires but in no event longer than four years, from and after the Effective Time, directors' and officers' liability insurance policies covering the persons who are currently covered in their capacities as such directors and officers (the "Covered Parties") by the Company's current directors' and officers' policies and on terms not materially less favorable than the existing insurance coverage with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, in the event the annual premium for such coverage exceeds an amount equal to 200% of the last annual premium paid immediately prior to the date hereof by the Company for such coverage, the Surviving Corporation shall notify the Covered Parties who shall then elect as a group either (i) to allow the Surviving Corporation to obtain as much comparable insurance as possible for an annual premium equal to 200% of the last annual premium paid immediately prior to the date hereof by the Company, or (ii) to seek coverage from another carrier, in which event the Surviving Corporation shall reimburse the Covered Parties the cost of such alternative coverage up to an amount equal to 200% of the last annual premium paid immediately prior to the date hereof by the Company for such coverage. (c) In addition to, and not in lieu of the foregoing, the Surviving Corporation shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless all officers and directors of the Company (the "Indemnified Parties") to the fullest extent permitted by Florida law and in the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company, as in effect as of the date hereof, from and against all liabilities, costs, expenses and claims (including without limitation reasonable legal fees and disbursements, which shall be paid, reimbursed or advanced by the Surviving Corporation in a manner consistent with applicable provisions of the Surviving Corporation's Bylaws) arising out of the actions taken prior to the Effective Time in performance of their duties as directors or officers of the Company, in connection with the Merger and other transactions contemplated hereby, which may be asserted against the Indemnified Parties from and after the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that Surviving Corporation's obligations to the Indemnified Parties under this Section 5.7(c) shall not be effective until consummation of the Merger; provided, further, that the Surviving Corporation shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party if the indemnification of such Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated hereby is determined pursuant to a final non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prohibited by applicable law or if the indemnification of the Indemnified Party is not within the power of the Surviving Corporation under Florida law. d) In the event that any action, suit, proceeding or investigation relating thereto or to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is commenced, whether before or after the Effective Time, the parties hereto agree to cooperate and use their respective reasonable efforts to vigorously defend against and respond thereto.

By: /s/ J.T. Williams, Jr. J.T. WILLIAMS, Jr. President KILLEARN DEVELOPMENT, INC. By: /s/ David K. Williams DAVID K. WILLIAMS, President KILLEARN PROPERTIES, INC. By: /s/ Mallory E. Horne MALLORY E. HORNE, Chairman of the Board APPENDIX B - Opinion of American Express Tax & Business Services, Inc. Special Committee of the Board of Directors Killearn Properties, Inc. We have been engaged to assist you in determining the fairness of a proposed tender offer on the stock of Killearn Properties, Inc. ("KPI") made by Killearn, Inc. ("KI") at $5.50 per share. Specifically, we have been asked to ascribe values to the assets and liabilities of KPI and the resulting value per share of KPI stock and to compare that value to the $5.50 per share offer for the purpose of determining if the proposed offer is fair from a financial point of view to the shareholders of KPI other than Killearn, Inc. J. T. Williams, David K. Williams, both of whom are officers and directors of KPI, and two other sons of J. T. Williams. Our procedures are summarized below. Among other things, we (i) considered financial information of the assets of KPI furnished to us by management of KPI through January 31, 1999; (ii) reviewed certain internal financial analyses and forecasts of sales and development activities; (iii) analyzed publicly available information; (iv) held discussions with management of KPI; (v) reviewed appraisals and sales documents;(vi) historical stock market prices and trading volumes of KPI stock; (vii) drafts of the merger agreement; and (viii) made such other studies and inquiries and considered other data as deemed relevant. Sales of Comparable Companies A search for sales comparable companies produced no data on sales of companies similar to KPI. Comparable Company Analysis A comparable company analysis was performed by us. We analyzed publicly available information of the following: Current enterprise value as a multiple of the last three years' earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA); and current EBITA. This analysis resulted in an implied value per share for KPI of between $16.68 and $44.17. Current enterprise value as a multiple of earnings for the last three years. This multiple (the price - earnings ratio) resulted in implied values of between $10.03 and $78.21 per share. Current market value as a multiple of sales for the current year and the last three years. This analysis resulted in an implied values ranging from $11.95 to $58.13 per share. These implied values were not considered germane to the assignation of value to KPI stock because they result in values that are not reasonable given KPI's earnings history and potential without significant changes in KPI's holdings and operations. We also used comparable company information to derive current market value as a multiple of book value for the current year and the last three years. This analysis resulted in a range of values for the stock of KPI from $3.13 per share to $9.55 per share. Discounted Future Cash Flows The fair value of the stock of KPI based upon the January 31, 1999 10-QSB and our analysis, as discussed below, is as follows: 000's Land held for development and sale $22,340 Other assets 1,414 Total assets 23,754 Debt 14,965 Other liabilities 4,686 Total liabilities 19,651 Net equity $4,103 There are numerous assumptions upon which this value is based. While most are discussed elsewhere in this report, the more significant assumptions are as follows: KPI is a going concern; the values ascribed to land herein assume continued viability of KPI. KPI will develop and sell land for amounts approximating the amounts used herein. The company will have available to it sufficient capital to acquire and develop land for sale in the future. Our procedures surrounding land value consisted of developing forecasts of development and sale of land parcels currently held by KPI. The sales prices were based upon management's estimates of value, comparison with historical sales values and comparison of values to appraisals. From these values, we deducted commissions, general and administrative expenses, income taxes and other amounts incident to the sale of the land or operation of KPI to arrive at future estimated cash flows. These cash flows were discounted to their present value using a 12% discount rate. The parcel of land referred to as I75 and Octagon Road is subject to wide valuation estimates. Split into two approximately equal parts, it consists of 27.6 acres between the proposed Octagon Road and I75 and 29.7 acres between the proposed Octagon Road and the golf course. The sales values of these parcels are summarized below: 000's 27.6 Acres 29.7 Acres Independent Appraisal $7,867 $8,970 KPI Management $6,900 $2,970 Amount used in this report $7,590 $5,940 After reducing these amounts for commissions, taxes, general and administrative expenses, and future development costs and discounting the proceeds to January 31, 1999, the value of each share of stock of KPI using the various amounts for sale of the I75 and Octagon Road parcels is as follows: Appraisal $6.27 KPI Management $2.92 In forecasts of future cash flows, events and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected and there will usually be differences between the forecasted and actual results. These differences may be material. We have no responsibility to update this report for events and circumstances occurring after the date of this report. Liquidation Analysis We analyzed a potential liquidation of KPI to determine if a liquidation would result in a greater value per share than the proposed sale of stock to KI. This analysis assumed the following: Sale of land "as is", with no further development cost; and Significant reduction of general and administrative costs. The overall result of this analysis was that the decrease in sales value of the land was significantly greater than the savings from cessation of development activity. Also, because of the cessation of development activity, the deferred tax liability, created out of timing differences in the capitalization of real estate taxes and interest during development, converts into a tax payable and further reduces the value of the stock. The resulting value per share of a liquidation approaches zero. It clearly is not in the best interest of the shareholders. Summary Based on the analysis set forth above, the transaction , as of the date hereof, is, fair, from a financial point of view to the shareholders of KPI other than Killearn, Inc., J. T. Williams, David K. Williams, and two other sons of J. T. Williams. /s/ American Express Tax and Business Services, Inc. AMERICAN EXPRESS TAX AND BUSINESS SERVICES, INC.
