  RE:    Appraisal Report - Retrospective Investment Value of the  
    Leasehold Estate of Mrs. O'Kleen Laundromat 
 
Dear Mr. Malikowski: 
 
As per your authorization, I have prepared an appraisal of the Leasehold Estate of the Lease 
Between Scolari's Warehouse Markets, Inc. as landlord, and Howard Mc Gowan and Virginia 
McGowan, HOW Enterprises, Inc. dba Mrs. O'Kleen's as tenant, regarding property located at 
1375 Highway 40, Fernley, Nevada 89408.  The property is described as:   
 
approximately 3,000 square feet, commonly known as 1375 Highway 40, 
Fernley, Nevada, 89408, . . . located in the Fernley Plaza Shopping Center, in 
Fernley, Lyon County, Nevada, which area is shown on Exhibit "A", attached to 
the Lease Agreement which is included in the addenda to this appraisal. 
 
The purpose of this appraisal is to determine the Retrospective Investment Value, as herein 
defined, of the remaining Leasehold Interest of the tenant under the lease as of the effective date of 
December 31, 1998.  The intended use of the appraisal is to assist in the resolution of pending 
litigation between Chris Buchanan, Successor Trustee of the H & V Family Trust, as Plaintiff, and 
Scolari's Warehouse Markets, Inc., as Defendant.  The Intended Users of the report are Paul 
Malikowski, his client, other attorneys involved in the referenced matter, and the officers of the 
Second Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada in and for the County of Washoe. 
 
In the process of preparing this appraisal, I have inspected the site where the building subject to the 
lease was located and the surrounding neighborhood, researched the Fernley rental property market, 
selected, researched, and analyzed appropriate comparable properties, and prepared an analysis 
utilizing only the Income Approach for estimating value.  The full Scope of Work is described in the 
appropriate section of the accompanying report. 
 
The Appraisal Report which accompanies this Transmittal Letter is a Summary Report and 
contains a brief description of the data and a summary of the analysis and reasoning used to reach 
my final opinion of value.  Please be aware that this Transmittal Letter is not an appraisal report and 
the accompanying Appraisal Report must be read to fully understand my analysis and conclusions.  
Please also give special attention to the Assumptions and Limiting Conditions as outlined in the 
Addenda to the Report.

Please note that there is a very significant Hypothetical Condition in this appraisal and that absent

Institute and the requirements of the current edition of the Uniform Standards of Professional 
Appraisal Practice (USPAP) as adopted by the Appraisal Standard Board of the Appraisal

Because this Transmittal Letter is not the actual Appraisal Report, I have not indicated my opinion of 
value in this letter.  Please refer to the Summary of Salient Facts following the Table of Contents

would be different.

  In addition to the Extraordinary Assumptions and/or Hypothetical Conditions listed 
below, please be sure to review the Assumptions and Limiting Conditions 
included in the Addenda as they are important in understanding the limitations of this 
appraisal report. 
 
  Hypothetical Conditions. 
 
  Renewal Options.  The lease which is the Subject of this appraisal contains two 
options to renew the lease for an additional five years each.   These options are 
"personal" to the original tenants, and conditioned on the fact that they are still in 
possession and operating the business in the premises when they exercise the 
                                                      
1   Extraordinary Assumptions.  An assumption, directly related to a specific assignment, which, if 
found to be false, could alter the appraiser's opinions or conclusions, Extraordinary assumptions 
presume as fact otherwise uncertain information about physical, legal, or economic characteristics of 
the subject property; or about conditions external to the property such as market conditions or trends; 
or about the integrity of data used in an analysis.  An extraordinary assumption may be used in an 
assignment only if: it is required to properly develop credible opinions and conclusions; the appraiser 
has a reasonable basis for the extraordinary assumption; use of the extraordinary assumption results 
in a credible analysis; and the appraiser complies with the disclosure requirements set forth in 
USPAP for extraordinary assumptions. (The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal) 
. 
 
2   Hypothetical Conditions.  That which is contrary to what exists but is supposed for the 
purpose of analysis.  Hypothetical conditions assume conditions contrary to known facts about 
physical, legal, or economic characteristics of the subject property; or about conditions external to the 
property, such as market conditions or trends; or about the integrity of data used in an analysis.  A 
hypothetical condition may be used in an assignment only if: use of the hypothetical condition is 
clearly required for legal purposes, for purposes of reasonable analysis, or for purposes of 
comparison; use of the hypothetical condition results in a credible analysis; and the appraiser 
complies with the disclosure requirements set forth in USPAP for hypothetical conditions.  (The 
Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal).
