INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

     1. BOX A: If there is any error in the name or address of the Registered Holder in Box A, please correct. Please provide the stock certificate numbers and corresponding number of shares and the total number of shares.

     2. BOX B: Complete and sign Box B. If your stock certificate(s) is to be issued in the same name as appears in Box A, sign in Box B exactly as the surrendered certificate is registered. If the shares of Summit common stock surrendered hereby are owned by two or more joint owners, all owners must complete the Letter of Transmittal and sign in Box B exactly as the surrendered certificate is registered. If any shares of Summit common stock are registered in different names on several certificates, it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate Letters of Transmittal as there are different registrants. Letters of Transmittal executed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, officers of corporations, or others acting in a fiduciary capacity who are not identified as such in the registration must be accompanied by proper evidence of the signer’s authority to act.

     3. BOX C: (Substitute Form W-9) Under the Federal Income Tax Law, a non-exempt stockholder is required to provide the Exchange Agent with such stockholder’s correct Taxpayer Identification Number (“TIN”) on the Substitute Form W-9 below. If the certificate(s) is in more than one name or is not in the name of the actual owner, consult the enclosed Substitute Form W-9 guidelines for additional guidance on which number to report. Failure to provide the information on the form may subject the surrendering stockholder to federal income tax withholding on the payment of any cash. The surrendering stockholder must check the box in Part III if a TIN has not been issued and the stockholder has applied for a number or intends to apply for a number in the near future. If a TIN has been applied for and the Exchange Agent is not provided with a TIN before payment is made, the Exchange Agent will withhold on all payments to such surrendering stockholders of any cash consideration due for their former shares of Summit common stock. Please review the enclosed Guidelines for Certification of Taxpayers Identification Number on Substitute Form W-9 for additional details on what Taxpayer Identification Number to give the Exchange Agent. Be sure to sign in Box C as indicated.

     4. BOX D: Your old certificate(s), the Letter of Transmittal and any required endorsements and/or evidence of authority must be sent or delivered to the Exchange Agent at one of the addresses in Box D. Do not send them to Camden. The method of delivery to the Exchange Agent is at the option and risk of the surrendering stockholder. Delivery will be deemed effective only when received. If the certificate(s) is sent by mail, registered mail with return receipt requested and properly insured, is suggested. A return envelope is enclosed.

     5. BOX E: If applicable, signatures on this Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed in Box E by a firm that is a bank, broker, dealer, credit union, savings association or other entity which is a member in good standing of the Securities Transfer Agents’ Medallion Program (each an “Eligible Institution”). If: (i) Box F is completed, (ii) the surrendered certificates are registered in the name of a person other than the signer of this Letter of Transmittal, (iii) issuance is to be made to a person other than the signer of this Letter of Transmittal, or (iv) the issuance is to be made to a person other than the registered owner(s), then the surrendered certificates must be endorsed or accompanied by duly executed stock powers, in each case signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered owners appear on such certificate(s) or stock power(s), with the signatures on the Certificate(s) or stock power(s) guaranteed by an Eligible Institution as provided herein. Signature guarantees are not required if the Certificate(s) surrendered herewith are submitted by the registered owner of shares of Summit common stock who has not completed the section entitled “Special Issuance Instructions” in Box F or are for the account of an Eligible Institution.

     6. BOX F: Complete ONLY if the share certificate for Camden common shares is to be issued in a name that is different from the name on the surrendered stock certificate(s). If Box F “Special Issuance Instructions” is completed, then also complete Box E.
