DEAR STEVE:
THE MOST IMPORTANT TWO FACTS ARE:
1. WE NEED TO CLOSE OUT CONSTRUCTION AND GET A TCO SO THAT BO=H OF US ARE OFF ANY
CONSTUCTION GUARANTEE FOR COMPLETION
2. WE MAKE THE FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR THE RESTAURANT WORK THROUG=, AS THERE IS NO OTHER SOURCE
OF FUNDING AND EVERY DOLLAR IS ACCOUNTED FOR=IN DETAIL
PLEASE SEE MY RESPONSE IN CAPS

We need to organize how we can complete the hot=l and restaurant open items
I can come over to your office on Sunday to rev=ew the below I NEED TO CATCH UP TODAY AND PREPARE
FOR THE BANK REVIEW ON M=NDAY SO EVERYONE ELSE CAN GET PAID
I have cc Randy and howie so we can all address=this first point
1/First - we had always agreed once the project=started to be delayed along with AP not being funded a
new $800k budget wa= needed for the restaurant-this budget was based from the day of funding -=and with a
September opening — which so far neither obviously has =appened
we both had agreed to personally fund the resta=rant with $200k each -this was back before summer when
we thought we would=open in late August
Then in September when you where relaying on Ar=ade to fund a bridge loan - and we needed funds to
complete time and weath=r sensitive construction items - ie the new roof, sidewalk and other items=-which I funded -
we both agreed to fund construction with $200k and where=to be repaid when Arcade funded -
-Arcade walked away from the loan and we where =ever reimbursed
-Then when Crescendo stepped in to advance you =he 3.5mm loan -you advised them that $750k was going
to the restaurant - t=is is not correct- why you positioned the proceeds this way is not accurat=
We both need to be reimbursed from the Crescend= hotel loan -my loan is higher then $200k at this point -
but reimburse ea=h of us so we can then personally fund the restaurant- as we agreed upon So the hotels additional
funding of the restaur=nt is $350 k not $750
THE TOTAL AVAIALBLE FOR THE RESTAURANT IS $700,000, HOWEVER T=IS IS CALCULATED EITHER AS
REIMBURSEMENT TO YOU AND I AND THEN RE LOAN OR =OTAL NEW LOAN TO RESTAURANT
TO DATE THE RESTAURANT HAS RECIVED AROUND $650,000
ESCROW ACCOUNT HAS $722,000 WHICH IS THE $700,000 STATED ABOV= AND $22,000 FOR ALAN'S
REIMBURSMENT FOR PAYROLL LAST WEEK
2/ Still to be addressed - which you have not r=sponded to - is an outline as to the possible shortfall in the
restaurant =e could endure from January to April - complete budget sent to you weeks a=o SEE ABOVE PLEASE
3/ I'm told you only are funding the re=taurant $700 k because you subtracted last weeks PR? This is not
correct i= addition there are AP items that are not the restaurant responsibility tasting for bankers and loan people
LUNCH FOR 3 PEOPLE COULD NOT OF BEEN =HAT MUCH AND IF NEED BE I WILL PERSONALLY PAY FOR THE FOOD COST
=AO- the charity event on Monday to promote the hotel I WAS NOT AWARE OF AN= EVENT, UNTIL AFTER THE FACT
,ALSO UNDERSTAND MONDAY'S EVENT GENE=ATED INCOME FOR THE RESTAURANT AND NOT THE HOTEL - we can
address th=s at tomorrow's meeting SEE ABOVE PLEASE

EFTA02571458
4/ AP - how these accounts are paid off- follow=ng the AP list you advised lenders would be cured - you
need to complete b=fore they lean the hotel- as a few have threatened NO LIENS HAVE EVER BEEN=FILED EVER, AND
THAT WAS I NEED TODAY FOR TO MAKE SURE ALL CONSTRUCTION PA=ABLES FOR WORK DONE ARE PAID SEE ABOVE
5/ Construction- Friday's meeting with =kyland seemed to put us on track -issue now is how hard will they
push to =omplete in next 2 weeks - we need gary on board -I hear he is waiting for =is payment before he will resume -
but we can complete if everyone gets agg=essive and bring trades back to site
We need plumbing and Electric punch list items = Chefs are working on their list we will need gary to
complete hotels item= -especially items needed for tco
GARY IS FULLY AWARE OF FUNDING AND IS ON BOARD<=r> 6/ Speakeasy as skyland pointed out at
yesterda='s meeting and we both understood -there is little they need to co=tractually complete in the speakeasy as
most items are now change orders g=ing forward
Items to complete will be reviewed on Monday wi=h Tara - skyland and gary
- your office has still not answered where the =anquette fabric is - for starters AS YOU SAW YESTERDAY,
YOUR OFFICE WAS GI=EN THIS INFORMATION 3 TIMES AND HAS CONFIRMED YESTERDAY THAT TWO WEEKS AGO=THEY
RECIVED THE SAME
Banquets- to be built
-Lighting will reviewed with Tara on Monday - -front vestibule landing
Bar entire unit
Need to address that AC unit in the new area at=bar we developed. $ 7k NOT IN THE BUDGET I BELIEVE BUT
WILL CHECK
One AP item that needs to ASAP be paid is the s=undproofing- we will need this also in the speakeasy bar
area — WI=L CHECK IF IN BUDGET AND PAYABLES
7/ When will you be in your office on Sunday - =11 come over as you suggested on Friday I WILL HAVE THE
ABOVE PRE=ARED SO WE CAN MEET EARLY MONDAY TO GO THROUGH, I NEED TODAY ALONE TO DO T=IS
As we need a great outline prior to Monday =80 s hopefully jump start to complete lobby in 10 days-
speakeasy in 3 w=eks
hopefully we can then try to get some xmas part= business - looking at the hotels occupancy it falls off the
cliff after 1=/18 but maybe we can capture some business - this brings me back to the re=taurants operating budget - we
need to address a possible winter shortfall=above the $750 k opening budget NEED TO MAKE THE $700,000 WORK
SOMEHOW, TH=REIS NO OTHER FUNDING AVAIALBLE
8/. Hotel funding operating funds to be release= on nov 8. We need these funds to stay with hotel as they
have vendors put=ing the hotel on COD and as Denise has mentioned - they are almost out of =air wash and we have run
out of slippers weeks ago - now that the cold wea=her is here these are essentials I AM AWARE
You can not use these funds for construction AP= OR RESTAURANT OPERATIONS
I hear we are $180 k over 45 days with AP and h=ve $300 k closing in on 30 days WILL GO OVER ON
MONDAY
AS YOU KNOW THIS IS NOT UNUSAL AS WE RECEIVE LOCK BOX FUNDING=30 DAYS AFTER IT IS RECIVED
Let's also review on Sunday
9/ As you agreed on- you need to pay stacy Gilb=rt so she can resume the accounting process
—What time Sunday??
