Comparable No. 1 is a recent private sale, improved with a 5 year old, 2 storey with basement, architectural design building containing a total of 7,000 square feet livable area. It is situated on a similar size lot, slightly superior in location, however, slightly inferior in quality of finishing, has a slightly sloped driveway. Comparable No. 2 is a slightly dated sale, improved with a newly constructed 2 storey with basement, architectural design building containing a total of 6,340 square feet livable area. It is situated on a similar size lot, slightly inferior in location and quality of finishing, has a level driveway. Comparable No. 3 is a recent exclusive sale, improved with a 6 year old, 2 storey with basement, architectural design building containing a total of 7,027 square feet livable area. It is situated on a slightly larger lot, similar in location and quality of finishing, has a slightly sloped driveway. Comparable No. 4 is a recent sale, improved with a 5 year old, architectural design building containing a total of 6,368 square feet livable area. It is situated on a similar size lot, inferior in location, has similar quality of finishing, and a driveway moderately sloped down from street. Comparable No. 5 is a dated sale, improved with a newly renovated and modernized 17 year old, 2 storey with basement building containing a total of 9,000 square feet livable area. It is situated on a slightly larger but steeply sloped lot, similar in location and quality of finishing. These data suggested an adjusted range in value of the subject property from $2,700,000 to $2,800,000, within this range, we feel that the lower limit is warranted due to the current soft market condition. Therefore based upon our inspection and analysis of limited data available, it is our opinion that the market value of the subject property on May 30, 1995 was:- TWO MILLION AND SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($2,700,000) 17 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LENDER/CLIENT Nam Tai Electronics ADDRESS OF PROPERTY Ltd.

TEL: ( )........................ .............................. - --------------------------------- ------------------------------ - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NARRATIVE ADDENDUM: APPRAISAL REPORT - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Addendum (6) FINAL ESTIMATE OF VALUE In the subject appraisal, two approaches to value have been employed with the following results: Cost Approach $2,800,000 Market Approach $2,700,000 Both approaches provide the similar results. There is weakness in the Cost Approach as the subject is a new dwelling and is difficult to estimate the developer's profit. In the Market Approach, truly comparable sales are scarce and a considerable amount of adjustments for location, building and lot size, age and quality of improvements of the comparable sales have been made. The indicated value estimate relies somewhat on our experience and judgement. Both approaches contain weakness but combine to provide a reasonable indication of value. In our final analysis, we have placed more weight on the Market Approach. Therefore, it is our opinion that the market value of the subject property as at May 30, 1995 was $2,700,000. The reasonable exposure time is likely in the region of three to nine months. 18 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LENDER/CLIENT Nam Tai Electronics ADDRESS OF PROPERTY Ltd.
