George,

Here is a spreadsheet that illustrates the payout of investment and builders
profit. Check my math, but it looks like all the builders profit would be
recouped in the first year of operation. At permanent financing $1.1 would
be paid, leaving only .3 to pay out in the 1st year.



Since almost 80% of builders profit is repaid at the same time as the
investment, I feel the 65/35 is a fair split. However, as I mentioned
earlier, I think we should negotiate to layer on additional equity to you as
part of the construction contract.

Just to begin the brainstorming on what a construction agreement might look
like here are a few ideas:

1. Fixed construction profit of $1.4 million. Builder doesn't benefit from
higher cost, rather suffers as an equity holder.

2. +5% equity for meeting time and costs in original plan ($51/sq ft, phase
1 complete in November)
+5% equity for under budget and ahead of schedule
-5% equity for over budget and behind schedule

This way if things go according to plan the final split would be 60/40, but
could be as favorable as 55/45. I realize that what is budget and schedule
must be discussed and agreed upon.

Feel free to call me at home (713)463-8626
