RE: A proposed 22 unit assisted care facility and 5 efficiency assisted
care units all located on the Louisiana Highway 1 Bypass, within the
corporate limits of Natchitoches, Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana.
Dear Sir:
In accordance with your request to provide an estimate of the Estimated
Market Value of Fee Simple Interest of the Going Concern of the property
identified as a proposed 22 unit Assisted Care Facility and 5 Efficiency
Assisted Care Units all located within the corporate limits of Natchitoches,
Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana, we have personally inspected the subject
site and reviewed the submitted plans and specifications for the proposed
improvements and conducted a thorough review and analysis of all matters
pertinent for the Estimate of Market Value herein contained.
Market Value as defined by the Department of the Treasury, Office of
the Comptroller of the Currency, August 24, 1990, is, "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;
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
Page Two
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.
Fee Simple Interest is defined by the Appraisal Institute as being, "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. An inheritable estate".
Going Concern Value is "the value created by a proven property operation."
It includes the incremental value associated with the business concern,
which is distinct from the value of the real estate only. Going concern
value includes an intangible enhancement of the value of an operating
business enterprise which is produced by the assemblage of the land, building,
labor, equipment, and marketing operation. This process creates an economically
viable business that is expected to continue. Going concern value refers
to the total value of a property, including both real property and intangible
personal property attributed to business value. Special purpose properties
such as the subject are appropriate for only one use or for a very limited
number of uses. The highest and best use of a special purpose property
as improved, is probably the continuation of its current use, if that
use remains viable. Therefore, in the case of special purpose properties
a going concern value is considered appropriate.
In this instance the subject property has an excellent location within
a viable market. As long as quality management is maintained, it's Market
Value would be the same as it's Going Concern Value.
Included is our appraisal report which contains the various exhibits
and data utilized in arriving at the herein contained estimate of Market
Value for the subject property.
It is our opinion that the property herein identified as the proposed
22 Unit Assisted Care Facility and 5 Efficiency Assisted Care Units all
located on the Louisiana Highway 1 Bypass within the corporate limits
of Natchitoches, Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana, was estimated to have
a Market Value based on Stabilized Net Operating Income, as of January
10, 1999, of:

LAND: $ 175,000.00
IMPROVEMENTS: $2,005,000.00

GOODWILL OF GOING CONCERN -0-
The "As Is" Value of the property, derived by the utilization of the
Discounted Cash Flow Methodology, is estimated to be, as of January 10,
1999, but subject to completion of the property in accordance with submitted
plans and specifications within a reasonable period of time, of:
TWO MILLION ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS
($2,170,000.00)

has been provided plans and specifications for the property. The herein
contained Estimate of Market Value is conditioned upon the completion
of the improvements in accordance with the plans and specifications utilizing
quality materials and workmanship within a reasonable period of time.

of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice promulgated
by the Appraisal Foundation and the Guide Notes to the Standards of

NACHITOCHES AREA DATA
Natchitoches was founded in 1714 by Louis de St. Denis when he traveled
up the Mississippi River into the Red River and built Fort St. Jean Baptiste
near a village of an Indian tribe of the Caddo family, the Natchitoches.
The Red River began changing courses in 1825 leaving Natchitoches without
transportation advantages. During the 20th century the river to Natchitoches
was dammed creating the serene Cane River that meanders peacefully through
the center of this historic city and into Plantation Country.
Natchitoches is known as the "City of Lights" in honor of the world famous
Christmas Festival of Lights, a fairyland of multi-colored lights created
by 170,000 Christmas bulbs strung along city streets and along the Cane
River Lake. The lights reflect in the waters below and stretch along
the historic downtown area. This festival, always held the first Saturday
in December, attracts over 150,000 people to the day long festivities.
This festival has been consistently listed as "Top 100 Events in North
America" by the American Bus Association and one of the "Top 20 Events
in December by the Southeast Tourism Bureau.
The City also gained fame when in 1988 the popular movie "Steel Magnolias"
was filmed there.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
Natchitoches continues to retain it's magic, charm and heritage while
maintaining a perfect balance with progressive industries. Coupled with
scenic beauty and friendly hospitality, the quality of life makes Natchitoches
a retirement haven. In this old-world, modern city and parish, both visitor
and citizen can seek their hearts desire. Most recently the City of
Natchitoches has been named on of the top six U.S. communities to retire to
as published by the Klinger's Personal Finance Adviser. Diverse recreation
opportunities, cost of living, low taxes, weather and cultural offering
attract retirees to the area.
Thirty-three blocks in the downtown area are in the National Historic
Landmark District, which overlooks the picturesque Cane River Lake. Points
of interest include the first French Settlement, Fort St. Jean Baptiste
State Commemorative Area, the American Cemetery, the Louisiana Sports
Hall of Fame and the National Fish Hatchery and Aquarium.
In the country side along the winding Cane River are some of the earliest
plantations in the state including Bayou Folk Museum, Beau Fort, Magnolia,
Oaklawn and Landmark Plantation which is the home of the St. Augustine
Church and Cemetery.
Kisatchie National Forest and freshwater lakes offer recreational opportunities
to fishermen, hunters, campers and hikers.

OVERVIEW OF ASSISTED LIVING INDUSTRY
In anticipation that more elderly Americans will live in assisted living
homes than nursing homes in the near future, consumer industry groups
are saying it is time to put some minimum standards into law. One of
the most important things for the industry is to try not to admit residents
it cannot provide quality care for. Many assisted living homes charge
additional fees for personal services residents may come to need as they
grow older. Some will help residents if they get sick by permitting periodic
visits from nurses, for example, or providing supervision for people with
Alzheimer's Disease.
In order to minimize residents need to move, the consumer or trade groups
say assisted living facilities should be required to offer at least some
help with the dozen daily activities including meals, using the bathroom,
taking medication and shopping. Those facilities which accept people
with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia would also be required to
provide 24 hour awake staff and special training for those workers.
Assisted living has become the hottest new housing option for older people
by promising to provide a happy medium between their homes and a full
nursing home facility. Industry estimates show that the number of elderly
Americans living in settings that could be described as assisted living
has probably doubled from 560,000 in 1990 to as many as 1,000,000 in 1997.
By early next century, experts predict assisted living homes will care
for more elderly Americans than nursing homes.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
Although numbers are inexact, assisted living facilities ranging from
luxury apartment buildings to modest group homes provide housing along
with personal services and some health care. Residents may be too frail
to live alone but too healthy to need the 24 hour medical attention of
nursing homes. Assisted living can be less expensive than nursing homes.
A 1997 survey by the National Center for Assisted Living found that 52%
costs $1,001.00 to $2,000.00 per month and 24% cost less than $1,000.00
per month. In contrast, monthly nursing home fees average above $3,000.00.
Assisted living's affordability has attracted the attention of law makers
worried about how the nation will ensure elderly care for the huge baby
boom generation now middle aged.
Medicaid programs for the poor in 28 states have begun to cover some
assisted living services and the Department of Health and Human Services
is conducting a fact finding survey.
Unlike nursing homes, assisted living homes are not regulated by the
Federal Government. Fewer than half of the states require licensing before
it opens. That allows for flexibility and partly explains assisted living's
popularity.
In summary, the assisted living facilities currently expanding throughout
the United States are the most popular and desirable alternative living
situation for those elderly which require some minimal level of care but
not the extensive
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
level required by nursing home patients. As the population continues
to grow older but maintain better health, the appeal thus desirability
of assisted living facilities will continue to be enhanced.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
SCOPE OF THE APPRAISAL
The appraiser has personally inspected the subject site and conducted
an in-depth inspection of the neighborhood in which the subject property
is located observing it's trends of development and characteristics.
Vacant land sales utilized in conjunction with the Cost Approach to Value
and in determining the estimated Market Value of the subject site, as
if vacant, and owned in Fee Simple have been inspected by this appraiser
and a combination of data provided by the Marshall Valuation Service Cost
Manual and other available in-file data has been utilized in the process
of estimating the replacement cost new of the subject improvements.
In the final analysis, the appraiser has utilized and relied upon the
experience of judgment based on the opinion of the quality and quantity
of the data in arriving at the final value estimate of the Fee Simple
Interest in the subject property.
The Income Approach to Value has been completed utilizing a stabilized
net income capitalized into value and a discounted cash flow method.
Economic rents were determined by rent comparables and current data utilized
with respect to expense projections. Information provided by the publication
"Trends in the Health Care Industry" as well as information provided by
other actual ongoing facilities similar to the subject have been utilized
in the process of estimating the projected expenses which were included
in the Income Approach to Value. Although the subject property is proposed
at the present time and has
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
no income or expense history, it is considered to be a functional facility
and a facility which is demand with respect to providing long term assisted
living care.

subject site as a site of an assisted living facility.
This appraiser has not conducted an in-depth review with respect to the
abstract to the subject site but no deed restrictions or other restrictive
covenants are assumed to exist which would affect the development of the
subject property to its highest and best use. However, this should be
ascertained by competent legal authority and is a condition of this appraisal
report.
Drainage
Review of Flood Hazard Maps found in the Natchitoches Community Office
indicated the subject property to be located in a Flood Zone "X" according
to
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
Flood Map No. 220131-0003-C having an effective date of September 18,
1987. This indicates no flood insurance is required for the subject property.
However, the flood map indicates a flood zone "AE" to be in the area
and the exact flood zone status must be determined by an engineer.
Tax Data
The subject property is proposed construction property and the taxes
on the vacant land only are minimal. The subject property will be placed
on the Natchitoches Parish tax rolls the year after it is completed and
at that time will be assessed and the tax liability can be assigned.
For the purposes of this appraisal report and for the utilization in the
Income Approach, taxes have been projected but are subject to change once
the property is completed and placed on the tax rolls.
The 1998 millage rates applicable to the subject property are as follows:
City 17.03
Parish 105.82
Total 122.85
Assisted living facilities such as the subject are assessed at 10% of
Market Value and conversations with representatives of the Natchitoches
Parish Tax Assessor's Office indicate an estimated Market Value for tax
purposes will be approximately 30% less than actual Market Value. Thus:
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
Estimated Value of Subject $2,255,000.00
Estimated Assessed Value $1,578,500.00
10% - Assessed Value $ 157,850.00
$157,850.00 X 122.85 Mills = Estimated Tax Liability $19,391.87

DESCRIPTION OF THE IMPROVEMENTS
Assisted Living Facility
The proposed facility containing the assisted living units will be constructed
within a single T-shaped building but a building comprised of different
component sections housing the assisted living units in two wings with
the public areas located in the center or core of the building. The building
is a modified T-shape and encompasses a total of 22.216 square feet of
heated area. The assisted living units contained within this facility
will contain approximately 485 square feet of living area and feature
a bedroom, living room, kitchenette and full bath with shower while the
efficiency units will contain approximately 200 square feet of area.
The gross building area was calculated by Mr. Mike Wallace, the preparer
of the plans and specifications for the property.
Construction characteristics for this building include reinforced poured
concrete foundation with adequate grade beams and both interior and perimeter
footings with the exterior being wood framing utilizing a combination
of brick veneer vinyl with the roof being a composition shingle roof over
wood decking. Windows will be insulated, horizontal slide aluminum windows
with each unit of the assisted care units having their own central HVAC
unit with the common areas utilizing central, zoned units.
Interior construction will include a combination of vinyl and carpet
or ceramic tile flooring, painted or vinyl covered sheetrock walls with
acoustical ceilings. Lighting will be both standard and fluorescent fixtures.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
Amenities to be contained within the assisted care portion of the building
include a full service kitchen, dining room, activities area, whirlpool
area, staff laundry, TV rooms, offices and other required amenities as
well as an apartment for the resident managing couple.
As previously noted, the total gross area contained within this portion
of the subject property is 22.216 square feet. Within this total, 22
assisted living units, 5 efficiency assisted units and remaining common
areas will be contained. Parking will be poured concrete and located
at strategic locations around the site and will be adequate to fulfill
the requirements of both the tenants and staff. Landscaping will be extensive
and utilized in conjunction with the natural topography of the area should
be most pleasing.
Each assisted living unit will include a toilet, lavatory and tub/shower
unit, through wall air conditioning unit with heat strip, drop-in over/range
unit with vent hood as well as adequate closet and cabinet space.
A complete set of working drawings will be provided the appraiser as
a condition of this appraisal to ascertain the assumptions utilized within
this report have been fulfilled. A final inspection by the appraiser
will be required.
As noted, the subject is proposed construction and this appraisal is
conditioned upon the completion utilizing quality materials and workmanship
with a final
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
inspection by the appraiser required to ascertain the preliminary plans
and specifications provided this appraiser were correct.

HIGHEST AND BEST USE
Introduction
The Appraisal Institute defined highest and best use as follows, "that
legal use, at the time of the appraisal, which is the most profitable
likely use to which a property can be put."
There are several basic factors which must be considered in order to
make a proper determination of Highest and Best Use:
1. The use must be legal, that is, legally adaptable regarding zoning
and other restrictions;
2. The use must be probable, not conjectural or speculative;
3. The property must be physically adaptable to use contemplated;
4. There must be a demand for such use;
5. The use must be profitable, the highest return to the land over the
longest period of time.
Highest and best use of the land (or site) if vacant and available for
use may be different from the highest and best use of the improved property.
This is true if the improvement is not an appropriate use, but it makes
a contribution to the total property value in excess of the value of the
site.
The above five tests have been applied to the subject property's vacant
site. In arriving at the estimate of highest and best use, the subject
site has been carefully analyzed.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
HIGHEST AND BEST USE ASSUMING A VACANT SITE
Permissible Use
An investigation has been conducted in order to determine the zoning
classification that encumbers the subject property. The results of this
investigation has revealed that the subject site is not affected by City
zoning with the subject site zoned "B-3". The zoning classification allows
a large number of permissible uses to be considered for the subject property
but it's location within a combination residential and commercial area,
the access provided by a dual-laned traffic artery and other factors indicate
the proposed utilization as an assisted care facility to be one of the
better if not the best permissible uses of the site and would be a legal,
conforming, permissible use.
Possible Use
Inspection of the subject property's neighborhood has been made to determine
any physical limitations that might be present. The result of this inspection
has revealed the neighborhood is developed with mix of property types.
The zoning which is currently applicable to the subject property does
allow for an assisted care facility to be constructed on the site as well
as other types of multi-family construction. This zoning classification
will allow the property to be developed as proposed within this appraisal
report and this is considered the most likely probable use to which the
subject property could be put.
In the final analysis, the proposed utilization of the subject property
is considered to constitute one of it's Highest and Best Uses.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
THE APPRAISAL PROCESS
The real estate appraisal profession typically utilizes three basic approaches
in the process of estimating the value of a parcel of real property.
These approaches include the Cost Approach, the Income Approach and the
Market Data Approach. The Cost Approach utilizes an estimate of reproduction
or replacement costs new of the building and other on-site improvements
to be contained within the subject property less accrued depreciation
from all sources including physical curable and incurable deterioration,
functional obsolescence and economic obsolescence to arrive at an estimate
of depreciated reproduction or replacement costs for the improvements.
The estimated value of the site, as if vacant, and determined by the
comparison of the subject site with other similar parcels in either the
immediate proximity of the subject or in other comparable areas is added
to the depreciated reproduction or replacement cost estimate of the
improvements to provide an indication of value of the property being
appraised from the Cost Approach.
The Cost Approach is generally accorded the greatest credence in instances
where the property being appraised is either a proposed property or a
new property having little or no accrued depreciation or instances where
the property being appraised represents a special purpose type property.
In these instances, the Cost Approach is an accurate indication of value
for the property and is accorded considerable credence in the reconciliation
process.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
The Income Approach to Value utilizes an estimate of gross annual income
to be generated by the property being appraised as determined to be
representative of economic rentals for this type property within the area
less an allowance considered typical for vacancy and collection losses to
arrive at an estimate of effective gross annual income which is to be
generated by the property. Expenses typically associated with the operation
of this type property in accordance with prevailing lease terms and
conditions in the area as well as data provided by analysis of the operating
history of other similar type properties are projected and deducted from the
effective gross annual income to arrive at an estimate of net operating
income before recapture attributable to the subject. This net operating
income is then capitalized by the most appropriate method available with
respect to the subject property in particular and the appraisal problem in
general into an indication of value for the property being appraised from the
Income Approach. Another method of utilizing the Income Approach is the
Gross Income Multiplier technique. This technique identifies the relationship
between the sales price (value) of a property and its gross annual income
earning potential. The Gross Income Multiplier is derived by dividing the
sales price of a property by its gross potential income and, thus, is an
excellent indicator of buyer, seller and investor attitudes toward the
property being analyzed. An effective gross income multiplier is also
excellent as it utilizes the actual gross income after vacancy to derive
the multiplier. use depends upon available data.
The Market Data or Direct Sales Comparison Approach utilize sales of
comparable improved properties in either the immediate proximity of the
subject
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
or in other comparable areas to derive a unit of comparison. Each of
the various comparable sales are carefully reviewed and analyzed by the
appraiser, adjusted for any dissimilarities between the subject property
and the comparable sale in such areas as date of sale, location, design,
condition, and other physical characteristics to result in an adjusted
unit of comparison to be utilized in the Market Data or Direct Sales
Comparison Approach to provide an indication of value for the property being
appraised.
The reconciliation is the method whereby all data provided by the various
approaches utilized in the appraisal report are carefully analyzed and
accorded weight in varying degrees. The approach which is considered
to be the most representative of current buyer, seller and investor attitudes
towards the subject property is accorded the greatest credence in the
final analysis but all the approaches are interrelated and all data gathered
and utilized in the various approaches must be carefully analyzed in the
reconciliation process and to ignore any available data would be improper.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
COST APPROACH TO VALUE
The Cost Approach to Value, like the Sales Comparison and Income Approaches,
is based on comparison. in the Cost Approach, the cost to construct a
building and the value of any existing building are compared. The Cost
Approach to Value reflects market thinking in the recognition that market
participants relate value to cost. Buyers tend to judge the value of
an existing structure by comparing it to the value of a newly constructed
building with optimal functional utility. Moreover, buyers adjust the
prices they are willing to buy by estimating the cost to bring an existing
structure to desired levels of functional utility.
Thus, by applying the Cost Approach, an appraiser attempts to estimate
the difference in worth to a buyer between the property being appraised
and a newly constructed building with optimal utility. An appraiser makes
a sound value estimate by estimating the cost to construct a reproduction
of or a replacement of the existing structure and then deducts all evidence
of accrued depreciation in the property being appraised from the cost
of the reproduction or replacement structure and the resulting figure,
plus the value of the land, plus any entrepreneurial profit provides a
value indication through the application of the Cost Approach.
The decision to utilize reproduction or replacement costs is most pertinent
and the selection plays and important part in contributing to the validity
of the Cost Approach. Replacement cost is defined in Real Estate Appraisal
Terminology as
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
being, "the cost of construction at current prices of a building having
utility equivalent to the building being appraised but built with modern
materials and according to the current standards, design and layout.
The use of the replacement cost concept presumably eliminates all functional
obsolescence and the only depreciation to be measured is physical
deterioration and economic obsolescence." The appraisers will utilize the
replacement cost method supported by Marshall Valuation Service in
conjunction with the construction cost estimate provided by knowledgeable
contractors/engineers or architects.
DEPRECIATION
All types of accrued depreciation affecting the subject improvements
were considered. Accrued depreciation is defined as, "the difference
between reproduction cost new as of the date of the appraisal and the
present contributory value of the improvements." Accrued depreciation
is divided into three basic categories: physical deterioration (which
includes curable and incurable), functional obsolescence (including
curable and incurable), and economic obsolescence (which is always
incurable). The following is a discussion of each type of depreciation
and the observed depreciation applicable to the subject property.
Physical Deterioration, Curable
This type of depreciation is defined as, "the loss in value from cost
new which can be recovered or offset through correction, repair, or
replacement of the defective items causing the loss, providing the
resultant value approximates the
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
cost of the work." The property is proposed thus no deferred maintenance
is present.
Physical Deterioration, Incurable
This type of depreciation is defined as, "the loss from cost new which
is impossible to offset or which would involve an expenditure substantially
in excess of the value increase resulting therefrom." The property is
proposed and has an effective are of 0 years and a total economic life
of 30 years.
Functional Obsolescence
Functional obsolescence is defined as, "the loss from cost new as of
the date of the appraisal which is caused by a superadequacy, inadequacy,
unattractive style, poor or inefficient layout or design." Items causing
functional obsolescence can be either curable or incurable, it is curable
only when it is profitable to cure the item. Incurable, functional
obsolescence involves items of initiate which would not be economical to
correct because the value would not increase so much as the cost of
correction. Based on my inspection of the subject improvements, it is my
opinion that they are totally adequate and comparable to similar properties
in the same general price range, therefore, no loss of value from functional
obsolescence exists.
Economic Obsolescence
This type of depreciation is defined as, "the loss from cost new as of
the date of the appraisal due to causes external to the property boundaries."
To measure
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
this type of obsolescence the appraiser capitalizes the rent lost due
to the external factor for the prorata share applicable to the building.
As indicated in the site date, there are no undesirable external influences
and, thus, there is no loss to the subject improvements due to economic
obsolescence.
Entrepreneurial Profit
For the Cost Approach to provide a sound indication of value, a market
derived entrepreneurial profit must be added to the direct and indirect
costs. The profit figure is typically expressed as a percentage of total
direct and indirect costs. Entrepreneurial profit is a necessary element
in the motivation to construct the improvements. However, part or all
of the profit may be lost as functional or external obsolescence if the
market indicates that the improvements have a Market Value less than the
current reproduction or replacement cost less physical deterioration.
The results of the investigation and analysis of this market data will
appear as follows:

ANALYSIS OF COMPARABLE LAND SALES
The four vacant comparable land sales contained within this appraisal
report and utilized for analysis purposes are sales of sites located either
in the immediate proximity of the Louisiana Highway 1 Bypass or in other
very comparable areas of Natchitoches, Louisiana. All sites thus sales
are considered current with respect to date and all sales have been sold
within either 1997 or 1998 thus requiring only minimal adjustment for
the time differential. The size of the sales is similar with respect
to the subject property with the major adjustment criteria required for
that of location with Sales 1 and 4 located some distance away from direct
highway frontage with Sales 2 and 3 having highway frontage.
However, the location of all sales are considered slightly inferior to
that of the subject property requiring an upward adjustment for this
locational dissimilarity between the subject property and the comparable
sales and these sales have been adjusted accordingly.
Adjustments for zoning differential between the comparable sales and
the subject property is also required with respect to Sale 2.
After this adjustment grid has been completed, it is our opinion that
the subject site is estimated to have a Market Value, as if vacant and
after site preparation, of $43,750.00 per acre.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
Therefore, the estimated Market Value of the subject site, as if vacant,
is thus derived:
4.0 Acres @ $43,750.00/ Acre $175,000.00
INDICATED VALUE OF THE SUBJECT SITE,
AS IF VACANT (R/T) $175,000.00
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
DISCUSSION OF COST APPROACH
In the construction of any project, the total cost of development can
be divided into basic categories: direct or hard cost, and indirect or
soft costs. As defined in Real Estate Appraisal Terminology, the definition
of Direct Costs is, "the cost of direct labor and materials devoted
specifically to a unit of work. In construction, these costs are directly
related to site acquisition and construction of the improvements..." Defined
in this same text, Indirect Cost is, "that cost in the development of
a property which would not be included in a general contract for construction
or for land acquisition..."
Direct costs include the cost of items such as land acquisition, construction
of the buildings, equipment and fixtures, the builder's profit and overhead,
any temporary buildings for on-the-job usage, power line installation,
and the electrical power used in the construction. As indicated in the
Cost Approach Schedule which follows, direct or hard costs have been broken
down into categories of building area, elevators and other primary building
costs.
Indirect, or soft costs, generally include fees, financing costs, and
overhead. As the Cost Approach Schedule indicates, the indirect costs
fall into 8 categories. The permits and fees sections include the estimated
costs of a building permit, an appraisal, a survey and accounting and
inspection charges. Architectural engineering estimates have been based
on typical market charges. The legal expenses includes work done on both
interim and permanent loan packages.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
The insurance costs indicated are limited to construction-period coverage
including the builder's risk.
The closing cost estimate includes costs of closing both the interim
and permanent loans. The interest expense is based on typical current
market conditions and covers the period of time required to complete the
construction of the project. The loan commitment fees are also based
on current typical market conditions.
The appraiser's have relied upon the Marshall Valuation Service, a publication
of Marshall & Swift, 1617 Beverly Boulevard, Post Office Box 26307, Los
Angeles, California, in estimating the replacement costs new of the subject
property improvements.
The Cost Approach to Value, as it applies to the property being appraised,
is as follows:

MARKET DATA APPROACH TO VALUE
Market data is discussed in all the approaches to value. Data analysis
is needed in the Cost Approach to develop a land value indication and
to support costs and depreciation indicators; in the Income Approach to
establish rent levels, vacancy indications, expenses, and capitalization
rates; and in the Direct Sales Comparison Approach to establish comparability.
The appraiser has carefully perused the Louisiana market with respect

The three Improved Property Sales included within this report have been
provided this appraiser by knowledgeable sources and other appraisers
and are deemed accurate as they were verified by knowledgeable and ethical
persons. The appraiser has conducted an in-depth review of conveyances
of similar type assisted living or congregate care facilities in the State
of Louisiana and none were found which were considered to be reflective
of true arms-length transactions between willing buyers and willing sellers
with no undue duress being experienced. These three Improved Property
Sales have been included for the purpose of deriving an indicated Overall
Capitalization Rate, an indicated price per unit and an indicated Gross
Income Multiplier for utilization in the analysis process with respect
primarily to the Income Approach to Value. The level of services provided
by these facilities are similar to those to be provided by the subject
property which would include three (3) meals per day, utilities, maid
service one (1) day a week, flat linen service one (1) day a week, various
assistance with respect to bathing, exercise, and transportation to various
off-site functions as well as on-site recreational functions, counseling,
with other services provided on a more extensive basis for additional
expense paid by the

guest or resident of the facility. It is acknowledged that a large number
of the residents residing in the assisted care facilities are requiring
increased levels of care and these additional expenses are being passed
directly to the tenant as they upset the economies of an assisted care
facility having to provide this extraordinary level of care without additional
remuneration.

INCOME APPROACH TO VALUE
Introduction
The Income Approach reflects the subject's income-producing capabilities
and requires an analysis of the project's probable market rent. In the
comparative analysis, we have considered factors that would probably influence
market acceptance of properties in the area. The factors include proximity
to major traffic arteries; location; design; amenities; and the quality
of management.
To develop a supportable estimate of value using the Income Capitalization
Approach, realistic projections of income and expenses must be made.
congregate care facilities are unique forms of real estate with many unusual
characteristics, such as an intensive use of labor, costs of goods sold,
expenses categories, and product identity. Therefore, special care in data
gathering and analysis are required to create an estimate of the future
income for the subject. The appraiser will utilize data provided by the
publication, Trends in the Health Care Industry for supporting data.
The subject property is proposed at the present time and, therefore,
has no historical income and expense data associated with the property.
The subject will contain 22 assisted care units and 5 efficiency assisted
care units all located in a single T-shaped building which will also contain
common areas for the operation of the facility. The services provided
the assisted living units include all utilities, maid service, three meals
a day, transportation,
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
activities with additional laundry and maid service available at additional
expense. Normal day to day medical treatments are also available for
the various tenants with any extraordinary medical expense passed directly
to the tenant.
This appraiser has had the opportunity to appraise a number of assisted
care facilities in both Louisiana and Mississippi over the last several
years and has relied on data provided by these facilities, various industry
publications and data provided by various health care consulting groups
and experts in arriving at the estimated monthly rental rates and expenses
including fixed expenses, operating expenses, staffing, dietary, reserves
and other appropriate expenses.
This appraiser has conducted rental surveys of a number of assisted care,
private pay facilities located in the Baton Rouge, Louisiana area as well
as facilities located in West Monroe, Shreveport and Alexandria, Louisiana
in order to arrive at an estimated economic rental rate for the subject
property based on the level of services provided. The assisted care market
is still a relatively new market and the majority of the facilities have
been constructed in larger metropolitan areas such as Baton Rouge. The
rental rates commanded in these larger areas are above those which can
be commanded in smaller or more rural communities in North Louisiana and
appropriate adjustments have been made. The most comparable property
is the Arbor House of West Monroe, which was completed in December of
1997 and has experienced stabilized occupancy with respect to the assisted
care units within a six (6) month period. These units lease for $1,850.00
per month for the basic rate with expenses including utilities,
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
three (3) meals a day, maid service once a week, laundry service once
a week, assistance in bathing, transportation to shopping, church and
other functions as well as in-house recreational activities.
This appraiser has also recently completed an appraisal of a 33 unit
assisted care facility located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana which is very
typical with respect to the subject property. However, the monthly rate
provided by this facility is slightly higher than those in rural areas
with the base monthly rate being $1,850.00 per month. The same services
are provided including utilities, three (3) meals per day, assistance
with daily living activities including bathing, grooming, weekly bed linen
and towel service, weekly house keeping, transportation to medical and
dental appointments, worship service, planned activities as well as other
assistance required. Both rent comparables require upward adjustment
for time and location.
Based on this appraiser's personal inspection of these two facilities
and adjustment, it is our opinion that a $2,000.00 per month stabilized
rent with services including electricity, three (3) meals per day, maid
service, transportation, activities, assistance in the normal living activities
as well as normal day to day medical treatment being provided is economic
rent.
The actual income and expense data of various facilities is closely held
information and these individuals have requested confidentiality with
respect to this actual data. Accordingly, this data has been retained
in our various files.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
income into an indication of value based upon stabilized income of 10.5%
is reflective of current industry attitudes and is considered appropriate
with respect to this particular appraisal assignment.
Conclusion
Based on the available information we have concluded that a 10.5% is
the most appropriate capitalization rate which is derived from the actual
band of investments method and supported by the Underwriter's Method and
available market data. The location of the subject has also been considered.
Thus:

DISCOUNTED CASH FLOW ANALYSIS
The subject property will require a period in excess of one year to achieve
stabilized net income. In order to provide an estimate of the present
value of the improvements upon completion but prior to achieving stabilized
net operating income, the discounting process is utilized.
The income stream generated by the subject until stabilized income is
reached is discounted into an estimate of present value and the reversionary
value of the improvements as estimated upon achieving a stabilized net
income is also discounted to present worth. The market indicates a discount
rate of 11% to be appropriate to be utilized in discounting the income
and reversion and this is based on current rates of return on alternate
investments and the risk associated with the subject.

RECONCILIATION AND FINAL VALUE
The three approaches to value have indicated the following value estimates
of the property being appraised:
COST APPROACH TO VALUE $2,310,000.00
MARKET APPROACH TO VALUE $2,240,000.00
INCOME APPROACH TO VALUE
OVERALL CAPITALIZATION RATE $2,255,000.00
DISCOUNTED CASH FLOW
ANALYSIS $2,170,000.00
The subject property is proposed construction and only preliminary plans
and specifications have been provided this appraiser in order to complete
the Cost Approach to Value. Costs are extremely difficult to estimate
and no two competent contractors will ever agree on the actual cost to
construct a property. However, this appraiser has utilized reliable sources
including the Marshall Valuation Service Cost Manual as well as actual
construction costs affecting a similar type property in order to complete
the Cost Approach to Value and this approach is considered reflective
of the cost new of the subject property.
The subject property is considered an income producing and has been valued
based on it being a Going Concern. The property is under competent ownership
and will have excellent management in place and the utilization of the
Going Concern concept is considered appropriate with respect to this particular
appraisal problem. Accordingly, the Indicated Value of the Property based
on stabilized net income being generated at the end of the second year
is

As can be reflected by the above alternate investment vehicles. Current
rates for both short and long term yields is between the high 4.00% to
the low 5.00% range. The projected 9.00% equity yield or "cash-on-cash"
return projected for the subject property provides an excellent return
on the investor's cash, approximately 3.00% in excess of other alternate
investment vehicles. Accordingly, the 9.00% equity dividend rate is considered
appropriate when the overall risk and competitive rates are considered.

average) formula for deriving an overall rate when the mortgage constant
and equity dividend rates is known as:

Underwriter's Method
In making loan decisions, institutional lenders use a debt coverage ratio
(DCR), which is the ratio of net operating income to annual debt service.
This measure
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
of constraint is frequently used by institutional lenders, who are general
fiduciaries. They manage and lend the money of others, including depositors
and policy holders. Because of the fiduciary responsibility, institutional
lenders are particularly sensitive to the safety and profit and are anxious
to avoid default and possible foreclosure. Consequently, when they underwrite
income property loans, institutional lenders try to provide a cushion
so that the borrower will be able to meet the debt service obligations
on the loan even if the building income declines.
The debt coverage ratio may also be used to estimate the overall capitalization
rate by multiplying the ratio by the mortgage loan constant (RM) and the
loan-to-value ratio (M). The debt coverage ratio, mortgage loan constant,
and loan-to-value ratio have already been determined to be 1.20, .1079671
and .75, respectfully. The formula for derivation of an overall capitalization
rate from debt coverage ratio is as follows:
RO = DCR x RM x M
RO = 1.20 X .1079671 X .75
RO = .0971
R/T = .097
Review of the three (3) improved property sales contained within this
report have indicated an Overall Capitalization Rate from a low of 9.96%
to a high of 11.6%. These indicated Overall Capitalization Rates which
have been derived from available market data indicates the rate chosen
for the capitalization of the net
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
The results of our survey and analysis indicates an economic rental rate
for the assisted care units, based on the herein listed services being
provided, of $2,000.00 per month and $1,550.00 per month for the efficiency
units with the rates remaining stable over the two year projection period.
The projected rate includes the herein listed services being provided.
Inflation will impact expense projections as well as increased occupancy
and these anticipated increases have also been utilized in the Income
Approach to Value.
In order to accurately project appropriate expenses for the subject property,
the appraiser has reviewed the current publication Trends in the Health
Care Industry with respect to historical operating expenses for assisted
care facilities. In addition, this appraiser has been provided itemized
comparable expense data with respect to three separate properties located
in the State of Louisiana but, due to confidentiality requirements, the
names of these properties are retained in the appraiser's file at the
request of the property owners. However, the following summary chart
is included for the benefit of the reader of this appraisal report and
it also provides support for the expense projections for the subject property.
The Income Approach to Value as it applies to the property being appraised
based on economic rental rates herein quoted and utilizing a two year
period in order to achieve a stabilized net occupancy and thus a stabilized
net operating income is reproduced as follows:

JUSTIFICATION OF CAPITALIZATION RATE
Direct Capitalization is a method used to convert a single year's income
estimate into a value indication in the Income Capitalization Approach.
The direct capitalization formula using an overall property capitalization
rate is:
Value / Net Operating Income = Overall Capitalization Rate
In this appraisal, the appraisers will employ two different methods to obtain
an overall capitalization rate:
1) Band of Investment - mortgage and equity components
2) Underwriter's Method (derivation from debt coverage ratio)
Band of Investment
The appraisers contacted local lenders regarding rates and terms of alternate
investments as well as current market rates applicable for this market.
Annual Constant - In developing the mortgage components for the Band
of Investment Method, the appraisers reviewed the National Mortgage Commitment
Survey conducted by the Appraisal Institute Research Department which
surveyed sample lenders in various geographical regions throughout the
United States. The data quoted is based on national averages and do not
reflect conditions inherent in all markets. Therefore, the appraisers
contacted local lenders regarding rates and terms applicable for this
market area. Lenders in the local market are quoting rates at prime plus
1%, terms of 20 years. 75% and a loan-to-value ratio. The local market
closely approximates the national averages for the subject property type.
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
The appraisers reviewed available data concerning current national and
local quoted mortgage rates and talked to various lenders in the Louisiana
area which confirm that market rates and terms for loans of the quality
of the subject property are available at 9% interest rate with monthly
payments amortized for a 20 year term, a 75% loan-to-value ratio. Therefore,
the mortgage constant is derived to be .1079671.
Equity Dividend - Current rates of return available from alternative
investment vehicles are reviewed. These alternative investments are more
liquid than an investment in real estate; therefore any potential investor
would expect a higher rate of return. Based on this, we have been able
to conclude that a 9% equity dividend rate is required to attract investment
capital to the subject property's type which is considered to be slightly
more risky than other types of real estate investments.
In order to ascertain the appropriate equity dividend or "cash-on-cash"
rate, the appraiser has reviewed money rates for other alternate investments
as of January 10, 1999. The results of this analysis of comparable and
alternative money rates are as follows:
Certificates of Deposit 30 Day 4.29%
90 Day 4.51%
180 Day 4.67%
Treasury Bill Rates 3 Months 4.39%
6 Months 4.40%
52 Weeks 4.33%
Robert M. McSherry, MAI
considered the best available indicator of it's current Market Value
and has been accorded the greatest credence in the final analysis.
Based on the data contained within this report, other in-file data, and
this appraiser's review and analysis of said data, it is our opinion that
the proposed property identified as the 22 Unit Assisted Care and 5 Unit
Efficiency Assisted Care Facility all located on Louisiana Highway 1 Bypass
within the corporate limits of Natchitoches, Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana
was estimated to have a Market Value, as of January 10, 1999, but subject
