Developer-Investor Remarks re<br />

Confidential Term Sheet<br />

For Magnificent Tower LLC<br />

_____________________________________________________________<br />

Additional Capital Contributions<br />

Developer: No need for this provision. Project has been carefully planned with<br />

very conservative cost estimates. General reserves and ample construction<br />

period contingencies in proposed construction budget. I have secured best<br />

possible general contractor, and JV can expect favorable GMC-type<br />

construction contract. I have secured construction loan commitment from best<br />

possible local bank. With proposed initial capital contributions, this project will<br />

be fully funded. No risk of funding shortfall or cost overruns. Therefore no<br />

real risk of capital shortfall, once initial capital contributions are made and<br />

Construction Loan closed.<br />

Investor: Not comfortable. At least during Construction Phase, must have<br />

mandatory additional capital calls if Project gets into trouble. Many<br />

uncertainties during this phase<br />

a) construction contract not yet negotiated<br />

b) loan documents not yet negotiated, lender due diligence continuing<br />

c) City permits not yet issued<br />

d) risk of Architect and General Contractor malfeasance or negligence<br />

e) substantial lease-up risk<br />

Developer: If we experience construction cost overruns, I can persuade<br />

Construction Lender to release reserves or contingencies, or increase loan<br />

amount. No need for this provision. It only gives Construction Lender a reason<br />

to say “no” to my request.<br />

Investor: Still not comfortable. Construction Lenders are very tight.<br />

Developer: Okay, let’s provide that the members in the JV will meet, examine<br />

problem and possible solutions to an unexpected funding shortfall, and, if no<br />

other solution, we will agree at that point to make further capital contributions<br />

per our respective Percentage Interests.<br />
