Kennedy, Esq. VIA FACSIMILE Bmnick, Alvarcz & Battersby 1839 Commercenter West San Bernardino, California 92408 Re: State Lease Number L-1625, dated August 15, 1997, as amended November 12, 1997; State Lease Number L-1172, dated December 15, 1989, as amended November 12, 1997 Novcmbcr 12, 1997, Sublease of Slate Lease Number L-1172 between East Valley Water District and California Golf Holdings. Dear Mr. Kennedy: This letter provides a status'update on our progress regarding the Patton Station project to you, as well as to all those listed below who are involved in this matter. Overall Pro~ress As you may recall, at the last meeting held at the East Valley Water District, our engineers (Crouse-Beers) indicated that they had received a formal concept acceptanec of thc project's flood plan from Flood Control. The next step was to obtain the cost of water which was to be worked out between the EVWD and Patton Hospital. This is essential information in determining both the cost of building the golf course and operational costs. Once that information is in hand, the golf course planners could begin to finalize their drawings, projections and overall plans. At the same time, CLC itxdicated it would tBrn'tulate a list of lease modifications and concessions which would make financing of the project possible. Also, at the time of our last meeting, CLC l~ad been approached by agents for a large commercial user interested in the lower 34 acres. Wa had been informed that a proposal would be forthcoming and it would require, among other things, the abiliw to ultimately convey fee title to at leas~ part of the lower 34 acres, CLC intended to wait for that offer to be made so as to include any lease modification comingencies in its list m the State, Since our last meeting, the exchange of intbrmation has been very slow. I do not believe that we have received a proposal from the EVWD regarding the cost of water, The lack of this information has held up the finalization of operational projections and constamction cost projections. Steven M. Kennedy, Esq. August 7, 2001 Page 2 Financing packages cannot be completed without complete construction and operation figures. While this delays pursuit of financing for the project, it is not the sole reason for the delay. The offer from the commercial user on the lower 34 acres ~ not been received. We are told that is should be forthcoming within a few weeks. This has caused CLC to delay its lease modification submission to the EVWD and State. In order to "break the lo,jam", CLC has decided to formulate its preliminary list of lease modifications based on the communications it has had with other prospective users of the commercial property and generally accepted financing requirements with which we are readily familiar. That llst is set out as a separate attachment to this letter. With regard to thc cost of water, with that information in hand along with a preliminaD~ reply to our lease modification requests, we can instruct the golf course plumbers to move ahead with their work. Also, we can move ahead with Our financing packages. Construction Timin~ Factors, Certainly, the single most important question which evc-ryone has is, "When will const~ction begin'?" The answer is dependent upon accomplishing thc items set out above. However, an additional factor in the mechanics of construction will come into play. In order to keep construction costs down, the best way to grass major portions of the project is by seed (as opposed to sod). In the San Bernardino area, the seeding must take place in March. The construction scheduling must be adjusted to accommodate this requirement. Thus, unless we can obtain all the information needed to complete the construction plans and operating projections to obtain financing--and in fact obtain the financing so as to begin construction in Ume tbr March, 2002 seeding, we will lose a year in this process. Patton Ho~?ital Nei_~hborhood Meeting. I attended thc neighborhood meeting at Patton Hospital in ,~uly, 2001. There were more people at this meeting tha~ at any other meeting we have attended. Much of what is set out above was conveyed to the neighbors who attended. The neighbors' concerns generally cen~er around how each individual homeowner will be affected by the construction of thc golf course. In particular, many have questions about what will happen to thc easement along the north side of the project. Also, most homeowners want to know if we will be meeting with them du~ing the planning stage. With regard to the easement, that is something which the engineers will detennlne along with the golf course planners. As to meetings with the neighbors, I have always indicated that when we get to that state of planning, we would indeed be contacting those whose property adjoins the prqjecc 8-~8-20~1 10:~4AH FRDM · ~192~2217~ P. 4 Stcven M. Kennedy, Esq. August ?, 2001 Page 3 Weed Abatement. I have discussed the most recent weed abatement notice with Richard Zug, the eonlractor who has handled this in the past. He has tendered his bill for services and has informed me that abatement lbr this last notice has been completed. Demolition Work. We have received a bid from Mr. Roseman (the contractor who removed the "W' Building debris) for removal of the "muffin monster". Before doing any work on this matter, we have asked him to review the Phase I and Phase II repots which I forwarded to him. We had some questions regarding what work was done in the past on the 9 acre parcel which is now partially occupied by the parking lot used by the San Manuel Tribe: Shortly, we will be able to make a determination as to when he should move ahead with work. Next Meeting Date. . A meeting date was set for I 1:00 a,m.. Thursday, August 10, 2001 at the EVWD. Originally, it appeared that most of the members of CLC would not be available to attend. However, at the urging of Carolyn Momsen that the meeting go forward as scheduled, I have made the appropriate scheduling changes to have at least three of the lbur CLC members at the meeting. This assumes that everyone believes that the meeting should not be postponed to allow for some progress to be made in the exchange of information as outlined above. Someone from my office will contact everyone during the day, August 7, 2001, m confirm whether a meeting will indeed be held. Sincerely, NOORIGIAN & ASSOCIATE,~ P.C. ' B,~K4nneth C.

DEt'HANT THE E]CEOJT[~ COMPLEX (619) 2,3:~-2176 August ?, 2001 The tbllowing lease term modifications are believed to be necessary to develop ~e project, obtain fir~ncing and allow for profitable operation of a golf course: 78 acres. 1. The lease on the upper 78 acres should be extended for an additional 40 years to match the termination date (70 years) of the leases on the lower 34 acres, with options. 2. The lease should be modified to allow for free rent for three years from the date the certificate of occupancy is issued for the golf course. 3. Upon the due date of the construction loan, we request that financing be replaced by a bond issue. The bonds would total not more than $3 million, maturing in 30 years earmng 6%, with interest payable quarterly. On the due date of the bonds, the leaseholder would be required to either retire the bonds or surrender the leasehold to the State. 4. The cost of any power line removal is to be borne by the State. 5. The cost of any additional environmental impact reports needed to begin construction is to be borne by the State. 6. The cost of water to the golf course Js $0, with the cost of delivery to be borne by the leaseholder. Lower 34 acre leases, 1. The leases should be modified to include a 5 year option for the leaseholder to purchase all or any part of either the 25 acre or 9 acre tracts at a cash price of $!.75 per square thor, o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o. cl. o O~ o ~ ~ z ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ o ~ ~ o ~ ~ ~ wo ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 0 ~oo ~ ~ ~ ~ o o o o o o o o o o o o o ~ ~ o o o o o o o o o o o q 0 ~ o ~ ~ ~ o ~ ~ o O~ 0 O~ ~ o o o o o Z : o o o o o o o o o o o o V z~ O~ ~ ~ ~W Z0 Z ooB~ zzz Z~ZZW z ZZ ~ w ~ OZ ~ Z ~o o o z 0 0 ~0 m w 0 _ o o ~o~ ~ ° oo ~o~ooo-o~-~ E~ g ZU ~ o O~ eru- I.- U.I ~ z EAST VALLEY WATER DISTRIC"' DIIi~CTOR'S FEES AND EXPENSE R~RT DIRECTOR: ~' (~/-/~F-~'~L'7'T' MONTH OF: ~/~y' yard Meetings: '7/~ ) Conferences and Qther Meetinqs Date: 7///:] ~ .
