Introduction

Introduction The following document sets forth the proposal of Stage Development Company, LLC (“Stage”) to the City of South Haven, Michigan (“City”) for the Dunkley Avenue Development Area (the “Dunkley Site”). All site plans, renderings and other information set forth herein represent the intellectual property of Stage and may not be used or reproduced by any other individual, firm or other entity for any purpose without Stage’s express written permission.

Proposal Form

Economic Impact Analysis

Economic Impact Analysis The product value is estimated to be in excess of $50,000,000. It is anticipated that the redevelopment plan set forth herein (the “Project”) will take approximately three (3) years to complete. In addition to the significant increase in the real estate tax base caused by the addition of 145 residential condominium units, the Project will also result in the creation of additional jobs within the community. These jobs will generally be construction-industry related jobs and as such will last for the duration of the construction of the Project. Approximately 3-5 permanent jobs should be created by the Project. These jobs will be related to property management and property maintenance operations once the Project is fully constructed and occupied. It is projected that at least sixty percent (60%) of the condominium units will be used as second homes by out-of-state residents. Out-of-state residents pay a higher real estate tax rate and generally do not utilize City services and infrastructure to the same degree as full-time residents. In addition, the new residents of this development will shop for goods and services in the South Haven area, providing an increased customer and revenue base for existing local retail merchants and service providers. Additional retail sales will also generate additional sales tax revenues.

Description of Development Firm And Firm’s Qualifications

Description of Development Firm and Firm’s Qualifications Stage is a privately owned, “boutique” real estate development company offering specialized services to the real estate industry. Stage was founded in 2003 by a group of highly experienced, creative professionals who share a vision of excellence in development and have over 50 years of demonstrated successful real estate development experience. This experience enables our firm to quickly shift and adjust course as the market demands. See Appendix I for the qualification statements of the Stage principals. Where others may see obstacles, we see opportunities and exciting challenges. Stage views the Dunkley Site along with the surrounding area as just such a challenge given the unusual shape of the site, the varied and sometimes competing interests of existing adjacent land owners, current and future uses for the Dunkley Site and the larger surrounding area, and a need to incorporate desired uses that are important to the City’s constituents. All of these factors must be evaluated in the context of a rapidly changing real estate market. Stage values strong relationships. They are the hallmark of our company and the path to sustaining our business and contributing to the success of others. Most importantly, Stage and its principals have spent the past several years building professional and personal relationships within the South Haven community and have made a long-term commitment to the community. This is best evidenced by its current 40-acre project, the Preserve at Woodland Harbor (“Preserve”), which broke ground last fall and is currently under construction. As you know, this project came to fruition after Stage and its principals worked through many difficult obstacles that many thought were insurmountable. This drive and determination to succeed will be critical to bringing the Dunkley Site redevelopment project to reality. In addition to the strong community relationships Stage and its principals have in the City, we are constantly improving and growing relationships with lenders, investors, buyers, contractors, and other related development professionals. These relationships enable Stage to partner with others and bring the best available resources and ideas to its developments. For the Dunkley Site, Stage has partnered with TVS, an internationally, renowned architectural and design firm, which was just named the Chicago Food Depository 19th Chicago Commercial Real Estate Awards 2007 Architect of the Year and also won the 2007 Build to Suit Project of the Year award. See Appendix II for a partial listing of recent recognition and other awards TVS has received. TVS focuses on inspired design and close dialogue with its clients. TVS also believes that design is measured on how well it enhances the community and enriches the culture.

Stage shares this focus and belief, making our partnership with TVS a strong and exciting one. The Stage/TVS team believes that the development plan for the Dunkley Site should: • incorporate the best design features and amenities; • enhance the community; • be workable and livable to foster personal connection; • utilize attractive landscaping appropriate for the area; and • be environmentally sensitive. Stage has demonstrated its commitment to these beliefs at the Preserve by choosing to limit density; by preserving large tracts of green space, ravine and wetland areas; designing a community that is pedestrian friendly, and creating a large pavilion and two clubhouses for community activities. TVS has also embraced these beliefs for over 30 years and is a pioneer in the concept of sustainable design. Our TVS team members are all Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (“LEED”) accredited and have brought these talents to our design for the Dunkley Site. See Appendix III for the qualification statements of TVS team members. All of our team members have experience in: • • • • •

Residential Development; Mixed Used Developments; Master Planning; Redevelopment and Revitalization; and Architecture Design.

In addition, Stage specifically brings other experience necessary to bring this Project to fruition including: • • • • • •

Financing capability; Market and economic feasibility understanding; Deal strategy, structure and due diligence; Sales, marketing and public relations; Legal; and Accounting.

Our development approach stems from our business cornerstones: honesty, integrity, loyalty, and fairness. Through our collaboration with TVS, we believe we have created a

world-class team that has the creativity, expertise and real estate experience to develop a unique and successful plan for the Dunkley Site.

Ability to Finance

Ability to Finance The principals of Stage have significant personal resources to complete this Project. We have a proven track record of financing development projects from $1,000,000 to over $100,000,000 in size and have extensive experience and relationships with multiple financial institutions to provide the financing required to successfully complete this Project. We also have many relationships with larger development firms and real estate professionals that can provide additional resources if required. The principals of Stage also maintain a large network of equity investors for projects to supplement their personal resources. We would be happy to provide you with banking references and detailed financial information at the appropriate time and in a more confidential and secure forum.

The Preserve at Woodland Harbor (“PWH”)

The City approved a Planned Unit Development (the “PUD”) for the Project in August, 2005, with 210 dwelling units to be constructed on the development parcel (see aerial overview of parcel on next page), including 188 detached single family homes comprised of harbor side homes, cottage homes, larger single family custom homes and 22 attached townhouses (see site plan following aerial overview). The 110 slips in the marina will be sold to individual homeowners and/or kept for rental purposes after completion of the dockominium of the slips. There will also be a new ravine clubhouse with an in-ground swimming pool, wooded and open recreational areas, a pavilion, walking paths and water features. The new ravine clubhouse will sit on a picturesque four acre meadow. A significant portion of the cottage homes are organized into “groves”. Each grove has a naturally wooded center green space giving it a real community feel. PWH may also include a commercial component along the Black River. PWH is intended to be a site sensitive development of the various areas of the property to take maximum advantage of the natural features and assets existing on and around the property. The road system is to be a combined type of driving surface with an asphalt center section with drivable shoulder(s) to minimize the environmental impact and visual effect of the roads while allowing an adequate width for passing vehicles and emergency vehicle access. Stage has designed all the homes with a high level of quality and finish, with an aesthetic reminiscent of a 1920’s era Michigan beach cottage in the arts and crafts style. PWH includes 10.5 acres of green space and beautiful natural landscaping. Every effort will be made to preserve the natural character and topography of the site including the retention and transplantation of as many of the existing trees as possible. Stage has retained the existing natural wetlands and ravine as site amenities. Picturesque walking trails and large natural green space also contribute to the unusual plan that has been designed for this site. Served by city water and sewer systems, the site is well positioned from a utility standpoint. The City recently completed a widening and reconstruction of Baseline Road bordering the north side of the PWH site, including a new bike and pedestrian path immediately adjacent to the site that leads to the lakefront and the public beaches. This has greatly improved access to the PWH site.

The Devon Project Located at Devon and Ravenswood in Chicago, Illinois, the Devon Project is a 99-unit residential building with 122 parking spaces and over 10,000 square feet of retail space. While the Devon Project is still in design development, the latest schematic plans are attached as the building is very interesting. The schematics show the site plan, the typical floor plan and the east elevation of the building.

DESCRIPTION OF SIGNIFICANT REAL ESTATE PROJECTS SPEARHEADED BY SCOTT SINAR AS SENIOR LAW PARTNER ON THE PROJECT

Premier Projects MILLENNIUM CENTRE, 33 W. Ontario, Chicago, IL. The Millennium Centre is a one million square foot, $250 million mixed-use project located at the northeast corner of Ohio and Dearborn Streets. Millennium Centre is composed of a (i) 700space parking garage, (ii) 60-story high-rise tower with 350 luxury condominiums, and (iii) 28,000 square feet of retail space. We acted as counsel to the lead developer, Cataldo/Marovitz LLC, which was responsible for developing the overall project. Cataldo/Marovitz entered into a joint venture with American Invsco to develop the luxury condominium residences. We were responsible for almost all aspects of the development of this project, including without limitation the land acquisition, bridge financing, retail leasing, joint venture agreement with American INVSCO, negotiation of the syndicated construction loan, mezzanine financing, architects’ contract, construction management contract, the reciprocal easement agreement and take out financing and refinancing for public parking and retail parcels. We were involved in previous negotiations for joint ventures with, among others, Marriott International for a hotel, Northwestern Mutual Life for a potential apartment tower, and lease negotiations with numerous national credit tenants. (1998 to present). THE FARALLON, 600 N. Dearborn, Chicago, IL. The Farallon is a 270,000 square foot mixed-use high rise tower located at the northwest corner of Ohio and Dearborn Streets, Chicago. The project is composed of 161 residential luxury condominium units, 179 parking spaces, and 9,000 square feet of retail space. This project was a joint venture between Cataldo/Marovitz, LLC and Magellan Development. We were responsible for the initial acquisition and financing on the project and worked on the joint venture agreement between the parties. In order to build this tower, some unique transactions were entered into by the developer. Additional zoning density was required to make the project economically feasible. An affiliated entity of one development partner owned the Rainforest Café parcel immediately to the west. We were actively involved in structuring this transaction, which included a zoning rights agreement between the owner of the Rainforest parcel and the Farallon parcel to permit the owner of the Farallon to use the excess zoning density from the Rainforest parcel. This arrangement was later required to be unwound. We then negotiated the purchase of air rights from ComEd over their substation located on the parcel to the north of the Farallon parcel. In addition to negotiating the foregoing agreements, we handled the reciprocal easement agreement and the commercial leasing on the project. (1997 to 2004).

Atlantic Station is a vibrant mixed-use community surrounded by a renewed midtown, Atlanta’s main interstate highway connector, and Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech). TVS planners tightly knitted the project into the urban fabric beyond Atlantic Station, connecting the neighborhoods with bridges on east and west borders, including new links to serve the Arts Center transit station. Three districts create a comfortable sense of community and maximize development potential. The “Commons” is the central residential neighborhood. “Tech Village” offers high-tech office space blended with residential and retail uses. And “The District” is a highenergy employment, residential, and entertainment cluster designed to encourage economic and cultural vitality. The Environmental Protection Agency designated the rehabilitation and master planning of Atlantic Station “Project XL,” a national “smart growth” model, in 1999.

Development Goals Narrative

Development Goals The City has many positive attributes that make it a compelling choice for anyone seeking a location that combines a rich history, abundant open space, charm and character, with an excellent Midwest location and a friendly local population. The historic roots and natural beauty of the City cannot be replicated and should be preserved. The celery pond is an irreplaceable wetland area that is home to various species of waterfowl and other animals and plant life. Our goal in developing this unusual property would be to preserve, enhance, and protect these valuable natural assets while creating a residential community that is in harmony with nature and respectful of the City’s rich history, local charm and character. Existing Site Limitations The Dunkley Site is approximately eight (8) acres. Of this area, approximately 2.5 acres appears to be in the flood plain which makes building difficult and extremely costly, not to mention the substantial additional time and cost of obtaining or securing governmental approvals. The northeast tip of the Dunkley Site has the existing drainage channel cutting through it. It is our understanding that the City and adjacent landowners currently have an application pending before the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (the “MDEQ”) to permit the dredging of the channel for the creation of a potential marina within the celery pond. This uncertainty makes it hard to plan for this portion of the Dunkley Site until the ultimate status is finally determined by the MDEQ. This uncertainty also makes the Dunkley Site less desirable and as a result, less valuable. The City has also indicated that they are willing to relocate the waste water treatment plant (“WWTP”) if a sufficient amount of development is placed into the area. Stage totally supports this plan. However, the City’s Request for Proposal (the “RFP”) does not include this area. Constructing a residential project immediately adjacent to the WWTP creates a significant marketing obstacle for any new development. Unfortunately, in the absence of relocating the WWTP, there is no way to escape this stigma and its attendant negative marketing effects. This will definitely negatively impact any residential development from not only the ultimate sales prices that can be obtained, but also from a sales velocity standpoint. Unfortunately, these are critical issues for any residential development. Based upon the experience of Stage and its principals in other municipalities, when a “blighted” area (blighted includes redevelopment of industrial areas and other

Brownfield type sites) is redeveloped, a master plan covering the entire area must be put into place. Most developers (including Stage) are not willing to make a significant investment into a portion of an area without adequate assurances from the municipality that the entire area will be redeveloped. Given the current uses of the immediately adjacent areas for boat storage, city public works, water treatment, summer rental trailer park and other industrial uses, the ability to sell new residential condominium units in this area would be severely hampered. In any project, the ability to succeed needs to be maximized and in the absence of a master plan for this area, the Project although not doomed to fail, will not be as likely to succeed. At the end of the day, the investors and lenders in the Project will need to be convinced of the ability to sell the condominium units at favorable prices and at a reasonable velocity. This will be very difficult in the absence of a comprehensive master development plan for this entire area. These uncertainties also make establishing a value for the Dunkley Site extremely difficult. This Project will also require major infrastructure components such as roads, new utilities, channel dredging, as well as potential environmental clean-up costs. In the absence of a redevelopment plan for the entire area, neither the City nor any private developer can justify this amount of infrastructure investment for a single project. We believe the only way to successfully redevelop the Dunkley Site is through a private/public partnership. For this partnership to succeed, the support of the following parties is essential: City Officials (City Counsel, Plan Commission and Staff) Citizens Dunkley Area Land Owners City Master Plan Consultants We believe that a comprehensive master redevelopment plan for the Dunkley area must be created and implemented with participation of all interested parties. A piecemeal approach to redevelopment with “one-off” projects is not in the best long term interests of South Haven. We propose that the City enter into a Master Development Agreement with Stage to provide master planning services to the City and to grant Stage certain development rights. If retained by the City, Stage will meet with the interested parties to gather input. Traffic studies, historical review, market research and focus groups would be implemented in developing the master plan. We will also address methods to retain current businesses within the area. Through this process Stage will work with the City

to clarify the many unanswered questions raised in the RFP and develop a realistic fair market value of the Dunkley Site. Stage and its professional team have closely reviewed and analyzed the City’s Master Plan for the area and are supportive of most of the recommendations. Stage would seek to include the following portions of the Master Plan in any overall plan it were to propose for the area: • • • • • • • •

Riverfront public access throughout the entire Dunkley Site; A larger park area; A performing arts/music venue; Retention of Black River Park with increased green space; Link to the Kal-Haven trail; A wetland/bird watching lodge, including a classroom; Public restrooms including a shower and locker room facility; and a Restaurant with outdoor seating.

Stage is committed to responsible, smart development. We stand ready to proceed down the path with the City as a partner, in creating and executing a well designed Dunkley Site redevelopment plan. With the proper comprehensive redevelopment plan, the Dunkley Site can be the newest destination area in South Haven where people come to visit for a unique experience that was, and continues to be, “South Haven.” We are excited by the prospects and look forward to continued discussions. Thank you for your consideration.
