VOGT, MAI MEMBER, APPRAISAL INSTITUTE CERTIFIED GENERAL NO. AGO07272 In response to your request, I have given consideration to the scope of work, timing, and fee required to prepare certain market value estimates relating to portions of the Crystal Cathedral ownership located in the north part of San Juan Capistrano. Specifically, I understand that the following two value estimates will be required: Current market value of the fee simple interest in ±74.13 gross acres of vacant land identified as Orange County Assessor Parcels 637-082-16, 17 & 71. 2. Current market value of the fee simple interest in a yet -to -be -determined portion of the above -referenced property. Both market value estimates are to consider the property in its "as is" physical condition and legal/entitlement status. Accordingly, it is agreed that supplemental engineering and legal consultation services will be required to fully evaluate and address access, flood control, utility availability, and title condition issues impacting the property's current development potential and market value. I have had preliminary discussions with Doug Staley at Hunsaker & Associates concerning the required engineering services and I am awaiting a call back from Tom Clarke at Stradling, Yocca, Carlson & Rauth regarding his availability to undertake the required legal consultation services. The value estimates will be submitted in a fully -documented narrative appraisal report prepared in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice and applicable state law governing the appraisal and acquisition of private property by a public entity. I can complete the appraisal by the end of 2007 if authorized no later than November 15, 2007. Of course, that delivery date is contingent upon the timely receipt of both the supplemental engineering and legal reports and a determination as to size and configuration of any smaller property segment referenced in Item No. 2 above. EXHIBIT A C, Ms. Cindy Russell November 8, 2007 Pagetwo My fee shall be billed at $175/hour for my time and $75/hour for a research associate but shall not exceed $17,500 in total. It should be understood that the appraisal fee estimate does not include the cost of any outside legal and engineering services. In the event that the City elects to have the supplemental services included within the scope of the appraisal contract, it is understood that this proposal for appraisal services will be amended to include the cost of the outside engineering and legal consultants together with reasonable related administrative overhead. I understand that Bill Ramsey will be my contact at the City for land use issues. Also, I understand that Brad Gates has been in contact with representatives of the property owner and will arrange for a property inspection. I appreciate the opportunity to be considered for this appraisal assignment. Please call if you have any questions. Sincerely: Gary L. Vogt, MAI
