American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 14 th Executive Summary Property Location 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Cook County, Illinois th Building Description This is a two-story, 92-room hotel (with an estimated 75 rooms in useable condition) with a full-service restaurant/tavern, banquet facilities for about 645 people, and an outdoor swimming pool. The construction design resembles three connected buildings which have a total gross building area of 59,820 square feet. The hotel portion comprises 70% of the total building area and the restaurant/banquet facilities comprise the remaining 30%. The improvements were constructed circa 1965. The building was partially lightly refurbished about five years ago but has received minimal maintenance and no renovations in the last five years. Currently the building is unoccupied and maintained by a receiver. The building design includes the 92 hotel rooms, a tavern with seating for about 50 people, three to five banquet rooms depending on the room divisions, entrance lobbies for the hotel and tavern, and connecting corridors to each building component including a covered walkway from the lobby/restaurant to the hotel building(s). There are six deluxe suites which feature whirlpool baths and some special electronic equipment and 86 regular rooms. Most of the rooms, including suites with whirlpools in the bathrooms, approximate 285 square feet; about three deluxe suites are larger with 430 square feet. The largest banquet room can accommodate 300 guests and the second largest 150 people. The remaining rooms can seat 65 persons each and are used for small parties or business meetings. Common areas shared by the hotel and banquet/restaurant include the hotel lobby and washroom facilities on both floors. Site Description The site contains 161,000 square feet (3.7 acres) more or less. It has asphalt paving throughout, with striped spaces for about 180 vehicles. Some additional spaces could be available on the southwest corner of the lot which is currently fenced off for storage and a small shed. The site is fenced on the rear and sides. Occupancy The motel is currently closed for business. Prior to closing in 2012 the front desk reported 32 rooms Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 15 th Executive Summary occupied on a typical weekday night (35%). Occupancy was reportedly higher on weekends. Based on the current number of rooms available for occupancy, indicated by the front desk in 2011 as 75, and confirmed by my inspection, the maximum attainable occupancy is 82%. Zoning The property is zoned C, Commercial District. Utilities Municipal water, sanitary sewer, electricity, gas, and telephone service are all available. Land-to-Building Ratio 2.69:1.0. The lot coverage is approximately 19%, not including the pool area.

Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 16 th Premises of the Appraisal Purpose The purpose of this appraisal is to provide an opinion of the market value of the fee simple estate of the hotel property located at 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Cook County, th Illinois as of the date of inspection. The appraisal is to be used by our client, Devon Bank, for loan monitoring and internal planning. It was ordered by Ms. Maddie Meskovich, Loan Operations Manager with the client. Scope of Work The scope of work for this appraisal included a complete appraisal of the property in a summary format. The interior (including all of the 92 guest rooms) and exterior of the property were inspected. We previously appraised the property in J anuary of 2008, November of 2009, and September of 2011, and reviewed our previous appraisals and workfile. We also previously appraised this property in 2002 and we reviewed that prior appraisal and file contents. We also reviewed a Hotel Assessment Report dated October 25, 2010 and prepared by Hotel Source, Inc. which was provided by the client. This report is included in the addendum. The cost approach was not considered applicable because of the lack of land sales, the deferred maintenance and limited inspection of rooms, and the extent of estimation required for obsolescence in this older building as it relates to its various components in the current market. This approach would not be used by the market participants in the valuation of this property, the pricing of which primarily relies on its income producing capabilities and sale prices of competing properties. A reasonably good selection of sales of similar motel/hotel properties was reviewed and analyzed to determine the value as found within the sales comparison approach. The hotel has been vacant and closed for over a year. No operating information is, therefore, available for the property. Additionally, significant expenditures will be required to bring the hotel to a level where it could reasonably be occupied. Many of the rooms are in a state of disrepair, the exterior needs repairs, especially the west elevation, and the condition of the mechanicals and kitchen equipment is not known. Considering the lack of income and expense data, coupled with the condition and somewhat unique nature of Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 17 th Premises of the Appraisal this property, the income approach was not considered applicable. Additionally, in order to determine a land value for highest and best use purposes, we developed an opinion of land value by researching the limited land sale data available and utilizing the sales comparison approach. Contingencies and Limiting Conditions Though the entire building was available for inspection, the condition of the mechanicals, roof, and other systems was not ascertainable. I recommend an inspection by a qualified engineer or building inspector to determine if repairs are required. For the purposes of this report, I considered the condition of the property, and assumed that the mechanical and structural systems were in operable condition. Readily observable damage and deferred maintenance (holes in walls, missing fixtures, damaged finishes, etc.) are considered in my value opinion. Finally, it is noted that the 2008, 2009, and part of the 2011 real estate taxes have not been paid and that the 2009 taxes appear to have been sold. Though requested, we were not provided with further information regarding the redemption cost for these taxes and have estimated them at $450,000. The first installment of the taxes for 2012 (payable 2013) also has not been paid but is not yet due (due March 1). We reserve the right to modify this appraisal and the value opinion upon receipt of actual redemption information. Property Rights The property rights appraised are fee simple estate. This interest is defined by the Appraisal Institute's The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, 5 Edition, 2010, as "absolute th ownership unencumbered by any other interest or estate, subject only to the limitations imposed by the governmental powers of taxation, eminent domain, police power, and escheat." Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 18 th Premises of the Appraisal Market Value Definition Market value, as used within this report, is defined as: The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: (1) Buyer and seller are typically motivated; (2) Both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what they consider their own best interests; (3) A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; (4) Payment is made in terms of cash in United States dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and (5) The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale. 1 Exposure Time The subject is situated along 79 Street which is a moderately th traveled road. The location is mixed in land use and has a significant residential presence. There are, however, several banquet facilities within two miles west of the subject, as well as numerous motels/hotels along Cicero Avenue between Midway Airport and 95 Street, which establishes a th supporting market for this property type. Primary roadway exposure, such as that afforded properties fronting Cicero Avenue, is lacking. Although some demand exists for both hotel and banquet/restaurant facilities in the supporting market, the subjects somewhat dated design, fair condition and required repairs, and distance from Midway Airport will increase its exposure time. Additionally, the difficulty in obtaining financing has greatly reduced the pool of potential investors, especially for larger (25 plus rooms) hotel and motel properties. Given these factors, the time the property would have to be on the market, prior to the date of appraisal, to achieve the indicated market value is estimated at 12 to 18 months. 12 C.F.R.

Zoning The property is situated in Zone C, Commercial District. Permitted uses: Permitted uses include, but are not limited to, contract services such as heating, plumbing, roofing, and showrooms, as well as office supply stores, hardware stores, department stores, variety stores, food stores, motor vehicle dealers, home furnishing stores, restaurants including carry-out and drive-thru windows excluding drive-in establishments, book stores, florists, depository and nondepository credit institutions, real estate offices, insurance offices, veterinary clinics, medical offices, and other business and professional offices. Additionally, more than 50 uses are permitted as special uses including that of the subject, hotels and motels, but also bowling alleys, bingo parlors, planned developments, public warehouse and storage, residential care facilities, and truck rental and leasing. Parking: Parking requirements vary with the use. Hotels and motels require one space per guest room, and one for each employee, plus specified requirements for restaurants, meeting rooms, and related facilities. Eating and drinking establishments require one space for every 65 square feet of gross floor area but in no event less than 12 spaces. Meeting rooms and banquets are not considered separately; however, meeting rooms may be closely represented by office properties at one space per each 350 square feet. Banquet facilities will be closely represented by eating and drinking establishments at one space per each 65 square feet at a maximum and will most likely require less. At these specifications, required parking will approximate 150 to 200 spaces. The subject is a special use per its zoning classification and otherwise appears to be in compliance with code.

The 2010 appeal resulted in an overall tax reduction to $101,986, roughly half of the previous years taxes. This reduced burden increased again in 2011, and it appears it will increase further in 2012, based on the first installment which will be do on March 1, 2013. Current real estate taxes (2011, payable 2012) are $2.91 per square foot based on the gross building area of 59,820 square feet. Taxes for similar hotels in southwestern Cook County, which were newer or in renovated condition, ranged from $2.00 to $4.00 per square foot. Considering the current condition of the subject, that is it closed for business, and its secondary location, as well as market conditions, reasonable taxes would be at the low end of the range at $2.00 per square foot or $120,000, as rounded. It is noted that the taxes for 2008, 2009, and part of 2011 have not been paid for any of these parcels. The taxes for 2009 were reportedly sold to a tax buyer. Though redemption Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 21 th Property Information details were not provided, the total taxes and penalties that are past due, based on the Cook County Clerk data, are $436,641. Assuming additional penalties and redemption fees, the total cost to bring the taxes current (not including any 2012 tax payable in 2013) is estimated at $450,000. We are not experts in tax matters and strongly urge the client to consult with a tax attorney or professional to determine the exact costs, penalties, and risks involved with these unpaid taxes. A typical buyer would reduce the price they would be willing to pay by this amount, and it is subtracted from each of the approaches to determine a final value indication. Property History The subject was last purchased by Samuel Alexander, in October of 2002 for $3,400,000 including a reported $600,000 in personal property, after listing for $4,400,000. The subject was previously purchased by Seong D. Lim in 1986, and had previously been a Best Western franchise. The property was refurbished and updated in 1999. There are no other transfers of the property reported. Subsequent to the 2002 purchase, the property was operated for a few years, then closed in 2005 for repairs and renovation. It was vacant during that time as a drawn-out renovation took place. This renovation was reportedly completed in mid-2009, though there are items of deferred maintenance that were never completed, and the hotel has deteriorated since that time. The details are discussed in the following section. Upon completion, the property was re- branded as the Midway Airport Hotel, and then, later, an Americas Best Value Inn. Currently, the hotel is branded as an American Midwest Hotel (non-chain). The lender foreclosed on the property in 2012, and it is now bank-owned. At that time, the property was also closed for business; it has been closed for at least one year and is currently maintained by a receiver. The property is currently listed for sale with Keith Lord of Lord Financial Advisors LLC (312.944.6270, keith@lordfinancial.com) for $1,500,000. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 22 th Property Information Property Renovation According to Samuel Alexander, the total renovation costs were approximately $1,200,000, though information included in our files indicates that previous totals were closer to $1,535,000. Renovations included new windows, roof, and exterior stucco, remodeled guest rooms with new doors, finishes, card locks, HVAC units, and furnishings, a new hot water tank, new fire alarm system, some lobby upgrades, a new fence, and a partially filled pool to eliminate the deep end. At the time of inspection, most of the rooms, the exterior, and the common areas showed deferred maintenance and required repairs. Items observed included holes in the walls, missing ceiling tiles, unfinished wall and ceiling patching, damaged or stained carpet, missing and broken tiles, an EIFS system pulling away from the exterior walls (especially the west elevation), and a general lack of maintenance. The condition of the mechanicals is unknown, and the water and gas utilities have been shut off. The cost to bring the property to a habitable state is not known, but is considered to be significant. Environmental Factors An environmental audit was not available. However, we note that an old construction inspection identified an asbestos-insulated, old, water drum/tank and recommended its removal. The report did not, however, indicate if the asbestos material was considered friable such that removal was necessary immediately. Typically, older disconnected equipment with such insulation are left unattended until the building undergoes major renovation or demolition. Consequently, until an environmental audit becomes available, for purposes of valuation, we consider the property free and clear of all hazardous materials and related substances. Should the audit show otherwise, a deduction for the market value of an clean-up costs indicated as of the date of appraisal would be required. We recommend careful review of the environmental audit to be completed and reserve the right to adjust the value herein based on its findings and recommendations. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 23 th Property Location City Data/Trends The City of Burbank is located 15 miles southwest of the Chicago Metropolitan Business District. It is bounded by the communities of Oak Lawn, Bridgeview, Hickory Hills, Bridgeview, and Chicago. The population according, to the 2010 census, was 28,925, a 4% increase over the 2000 figure of 27,902, showing a relatively stable overall population for this built-up community. The community is largely residential in character and has a resident composition mostly of homeowners. Housing styles include ranches, brick bungalows, Cape Cods and split-levels. Prices for single-family homes range from $25,000 to $400,000. The average sale price in the last 12 months was $130,247, showing continued annual declines since the 2007 height of the residential market when the average sale price was $280,000. There are few attached housing alternatives, with only eleven sales in the last 14 months averaging $62,254, also down dramatically from the high 2007 figure of $160,000. Apartments with one and two-bedroom units are available at about $700 to $950 per month; three bedrooms are less frequent and rent for about $1,100 plus. Rental of houses is not uncommon with most typical ranch and split- level styles renting for $1,200 to $2,000 per month. The community is conveniently located to recreation, schools and public transportation. It is situated between Interstate 55 and the Tri-State Tollway and is a 30-minute drive to the Chicago Loop. Midway Airport is 10 minutes away and OHare Airport is a 45-minute ride. The Metra train offers about a 30- minute ride to the Loop with stations in nearby Oak Lawn and Summit. Most concentrated retail and shopping is at the intersection of 79 Street and Cicero Avenue where there is a J ewel/Osco th and strip shopping center, Toy-R-Us, PetSmart, Sports Authority, Sam Ash Music, OfficeMax, Kohls, Best Buy, Circuit City, CostCo, Target, the Ford City Mall indoor shopping center, and a large variety of local and smaller retailers. Burbank is an established community with stable community values in all property sectors. Most development is old and lacks modernization. That, in conjunction with the age and overall average condition of the properties, will limit value increases over time. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 24 th Property Location Motel Industry Trends Based on market reports reviewed, performance in the hospitality industry bottomed out in 2009, and has seen considerable positive trends in the last year. National Trends Industry forecasts are positive for the hospitality industry according to market reports reviewed. In the March 2012 edition of Hotel Horizons, PKF Hospitality Research predicts that as a result of a long span of occupancy growth (growth in lodging demand has greatly exceeded the supply increase since early 2010) and a 4.1% gain in average daily room rates (ADR), revenue per available room (RevPar) for U.S. hotels will rise 5.8% in 2012. PKF also observed new records in metropolitan area lodging demand, and forecasts greater profitability for the next two years, which will likely result in an increase in hotel investment. According to the August 2012 Hospitality Directions - U.S. Edition published by Pricewaterhouse Coopers, lodging demand continues to expand, boosting occupancy. Moderate economic growth is expected for 2012, firming in 2013. They predict RevPAR growth of 7.2% in 2012, followed by 5.6% in 2013, building on the strong 8.2% increase in 2011. According to the Hospitality Research Semiannual Report (year end 2012) prepared by Marcus and Millichap, a combination of steady room demand and limited construction will generate a 120-basis point rise in national occupancy in 2012 to 61.2%, the highest year- end level in five years. Property operators will continue to push daily rates higher during the year, resulting in a 4.2% bump in the ADR, despite value-conscious travelers tempering the increase. RevPAR is increased 6.5% in 2012 due to minimal additions to supply. 2013 is projected to be another positive year, though with tempered increases compared to 2012. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 25 th Property Location Local Trends In May 2012, the hospitality research firm STR Global reported that RevPAR in Chicago rose 10.1% in 2012, one of the leading markets nationwide. Occupancy rose in 2012 to 75.2%, from 72.2% in 2011. They anticipate continued ADR growth into 2013. The data provided refers to the hospitality market as a whole. The limited service/economy segment, of which the subject is a part, is projected to experience similar performance based on the reports and data we reviewed. A similar positive outlook is expressed by Marcus and Millichap in their Midwest regional report which shows increases in occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, with overall 9.2% revenue growth in 2012. Overall, the outlook for all motel and hotel properties is positive with increases in room rates and occupancy expected by major market analysts for the next few years. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 26 th Property Location Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 27 th Property Description Site Location The site is located on the south side of 79 Street near th LeClaire Avenue in Burbank, Illinois. It has frontage at LeClaires intersection with 79 Place which runs along the th southern site boundary. Description The site has 161,000 square feet (3.7 acres) more or less. With the exception of a roughly 120' x 167' extension on its northeast corner, it is generally rectangular in shape. The land to building ratio is 2.69 to 1 and the lot coverage is approximately 19%, not including the pool area. Site Improvements There are concrete service walks and asphalt paving throughout with striped spaces for about 180 vehicles. Some additional spaces could be available on the southeast corner of the lot where currently there is a small shed and storage area. The site has wood privacy fencing around the parking areas. The site improvements are in average condition; the parking lot is in fair condition requiring resurfacing and restriping at the minimum. Utilities All utilities, gas, water, sewer, are all connected.
Easements There were no adverse easements or encroachments noted on the survey. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 28 th Property Description Building Improvement General This is a two-story, 92-room hotel with a full-service restaurant/lounge, banquet facilities for about 645 people, and an outdoor swimming pool. Reportedly only 75 rooms are currently fit for occupancy, though my inspection revealed additional rooms that required at least some refreshing. The construction design resembles three connected buildings which have a total gross building area of 59,820 square feet. The hotel portion comprises 70% of the total building area and the restaurant/banquet facilities comprise the remaining 30%. The improvements were constructed circa 1965. The building was recently lightly renovated, though it appears that the renovation was not completed and there has been nominal maintenance and no renovation in the last two years, resulting in an overall below average condition for the subject as compared with similar properties. The building design includes the hotel rooms, a tavern which seats about 50 people including the bar, up to three to five banquet halls depending on the room divisions, entrance lobbies for the hotel and restaurant, and connecting corridors to each building component including a covered walkway from the lobby/restaurant to the hotel building(s). There are six deluxe suites which feature whirlpool baths and some special electronic equipment, and 86 regular rooms. Most of the rooms, including suites with whirlpools in the bathrooms, approximate 285 square feet; about three deluxe suites are larger, containing 430 square feet. The largest banquet room can accommodate 300 guests, and the second largest 150 people. The remaining rooms can seat 65 persons each and are used for small parties or business meetings. Common areas shared by the hotel and banquet/restaurant include the hotel lobby and washroom facilities on both floors. Construction The building has concrete block support walls and stucco, or other EIFS covering, with cedar trim frame exterior walls, with partial brick veneer on the east side of the building. The exterior of the building is partially renovated, though much of it is in dilapidated condition. Windows are fixed and casement combination with metal framing. The building has Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 29 th Property Description a poured concrete foundation with a partial unfinished basement housing the laundry facilities, mechanicals, and storage. A single heating and air-conditioning unit provides climate control to the building, the individual guest rooms have wall-mounted HVAC units, many of which were replaced in the last seven years. Electrical capacity has been updated to 2,000 amperes. There are four public restrooms, one womens and one mens on each floor. The total number of fixtures includes roughly 10 wash sinks, 13 water closets, and three urinals and is adequate for moderate use of the banquet facilities. The first floor bathrooms were remodeled, though some of the tile has fallen off and their condition is deteriorating, while the upper floor bathrooms have not been remodeled. Floor Access The second level and basement are accessed by staircases, the lobby staircase having an open design with metal railings. There is no elevator. A dumbwaiter lifts food and hotel supplies to the second floor. Finish The building has carpet and ceramic floor covering, with marble in the lobby. Walls are wallpaper covered, stucco, paneled, mirrored or painted. Door trim is average grade; interior doors are recently replaced security doors with card readers. Ceilings are acoustic tile, drywall with stucco finish, or fire retardant sheeting. Condition Below Average overall. About half of the individual guest rooms have been lightly remodeled with new carpet, wall covering or paint, and windows; the bathrooms have been repaired, with modest remodeling where necessary. Some of the finishes are still outdated. Some of the guest rooms require refreshing or repairs, and 15 or so are gutted or in poor condition. The banquet facilities and restaurant/lounge have also been lightly remodeled but show wear. The common hallways have been partially remodeled with new carpet, repaired ceramic tile, paint and new light fixtures, though some poor drywall repairs, holes, or missing tiles were noted. The two kitchens have equipment, but are dirty and in a state of disuse. The lobby has been lightly remodeled, as has the exterior, though there are missing wall panels and unpainted areas, and much of the finish system, especially on the west wall, is bubbling and peeling. The roof has been replaced and appeared to be in good condition when inspected in 2009; according to the receiver, any leaks have Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 30 th Property Description been patched. Mechanical upgrades include many of the individual room HVAC units and the updated electrical service, but the condition of the mechanicals is not known. The water heaters, common area heating/cooling, and pool mechanicals are dated and their condition is unknown, but assumed to be functional. Quality Average construction quality, typical for similar vintage limited service hotels and motels. Utility The layout of the facilities is average. Room sizes are typical, although the lobby is small for a facility of its size and there is no elevator, the latter being a negative factor for use of the second floor banquet facilities and guest rooms. ADA/IAC Compliance The Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) took effect in J anuary 1992 and the Illinois Accessibility Code (IAC) became effective in October 1997. Both of these laws are subject to administrative and judicial interpretation. It is noted that there is no elevator for access to the second floor; however, there are rooms on the first floor and there is one room specifically designed for handicap use. A specific analysis of the property to determine its status in relation to ADA/IAC is considered to be beyond the scope of this assignment. No allowance for possible costs related to ADA enforcement has, therefore, been included in this valuation. Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment No listing of furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E) was provided. FF&E includes a bed, dresser, night table, television, lamp, and chair for each room, as well as roughly 750 chairs and 75 tables for the banquet facilities, and kitchen equipment for two kitchens. The estimated depreciated value for the room furnishings is $1,000 per room, or ($1,000 x 92) $92,000. The estimated depreciated value of the banquet chairs and tables is $20,000, and the depreciated value of the kitchen equipment is estimated at $40,000 for a total FF&E of $150,000 (as rounded). Since it appears that computer and phone systems have been removed, and the office furnishings are in fair condition, no additional value is added for office equipment or operation-related items. The total estimated value of the FF&E is $150,000. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 31 th Highest and Best Use Definition Highest and best use is described by the Appraisal Institute in The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, 5 Edition, 2010, th as follows: the reasonably probable and legal use of vacant land or an improved property that is physically possible, legally permissible, appropriately supported, financially feasible, and that results in the highest value. The purpose of the appraisal is to estimate market value. The highest and best use analysis identifies the most profitable, competitive use to which the property can be put. Therefore, highest and best use is a market driven concept. Procedure In reaching an opinion as to the highest and best use, we have taken into consideration the previously mentioned definition. There are essentially four stages of analysis. The use must be: 1. Legally Permissible 2. Physically Possible 3. Financially Feasible 4. Maximally Productive As Vacant Physically Possible: The subject is a level site which is large enough to support a variety of commercial uses. Its surrounding district is a mix of commercial and residential uses. Relative to its size, shape, and flat terrain, there would be no reason to conclude that the site would not be similarly able to support a building improvement. Legally Permissible: The subjects zone permits a wide variety of commercial uses. A purely residential development would require a zoning change, which is not likely, considering the adjacent commercial uses to the east and west, and the desire of most municipalities to retain the tax benefits of commercial development. Financially Feasible: Commercial entities are supported in the vicinity and have continued demand. A variety of service business and/or commercial properties would have support, particularly those which may require greater parking capacity given the larger site size. Public transportation is available nearby. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 32 th Highest and Best Use Maximally Productive: The highest and best use will be that use which generates the highest income to the supporting land after all costs of development excluding land, i.e., labor, capital, and entrepreneurship, are satisfied. The maximally productive use will be one which will utilize the large site such as a hotel/motel, medical office complex, senior housing/assisted living complexes, storage facility, etc. A variety of uses would provide a similar income to the supporting land over a comparable period of time. The highest and best use as vacant is for a commercial development. As Improved The subject property is improved with a hotel property which continues to contribute to the total property value and is expected to do so into the foreseeable future. To raze the improvements and sell as vacant land is not financially feasible considering the land value conclusion in this report ($885,000) and the demolition costs which would likely total around $300,000 to $400,000, considering the size and construction of the building, and the pool, which would need to be removed and filled. To replace the structure with a new building would not be likely given its less visible location off 79 Street which is a more moderately traveled road than th Cicero Avenue. There have been at least three hotels constructed in the last decade, however, on Cicero Avenue, which supports the general demand for lodging in the area. As noted in the market trends section of this report, the hospitality market is doing quite well, and demand for rooms continues to rise, while very little new hotel/motel construction is planned. The highest and best use of the improved property is to repair and renovate the building for limited service hotel use. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 33 th Land Value Analysis Land Value Analysis In order to determine the value of the land for the determination of a highest and best use, I utilized the sales comparison approach and considered the following land sales: Comparable Land Sale Summary Sale No. Location Sale Date Sale Price Zoning SqFt Site Area Price/ Sq.

American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 34 th Land Value Analysis Analysis Our search emphasized the most recent sales of reasonably similar zoned land parcels within similar locations in southwest Chicago and the near west and southwest suburbs. Active listings are also considered. Sales are very limited in these fully built-up locations, and the sales and listings included above are considered the most similar of the limited data available. All sales have access to sewer and water utilities and have similar accessibility. All four sales closed during the past 18 months. The market for development land appears to have been stable over this time period and no adjustments were required for market conditions. Adjustments are summarized as follows. Land Sale No. 1 Land Sale No. 1 is a highly similar property. It has a similar location on a secondary street near the primary thoroughfare of Harlem Avenue. This area is primarily residential and industrial, with less commercial potential, and is adjusted upward. Further upward adjustment is required for its more restrictive zoning. The net adjustment is upward. Land Sale No. 2 This property has a highly similar location on a secondary arterial, a half mile from a primary arterial (Mannheim Road). It also has a similar mixed area with commercial, service, and residential properties. It is reasonably similar in size with a similar zoning. No adjustment was necessary. Land Sale No. 3 This is a parcel with a less-trafficked frontage, but more commercial synergy, being located behind the Quarry shopping center in Countryside, and across the street from a Menards. A downward adjustment for location was required. This sale is also adjusted downward for its smaller size. This property was subject to foreclosure at the time of sale, but it received significant market exposure (433 days) at higher prices, and is considered indicative of the market. The net adjustment for this sale is downward. Land Sale No. 4 This property is located on a more heavily traveled thoroughfare in a more dense retail location, and is adjusted downward. It is also adjusted downward for its smaller size. This was a short sale, but the property received adequate market exposure (914 days) at higher prices, and is considered indicative of the market. The net adjustment for this sale is downward. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 35 th Land Value Analysis Land Listing No. 5 This property has a relatively similar and nearby location, but is on a busier street and is part of a Bridgeview redevelopment effort with access to TIF funds. A downward adjustment for location is required. This is a larger parcel with an irregular shape which significantly limits its frontage. Upward adjustments are required for size and utility. The net adjustment for this listing is upward, but as a listing, it will represent the high end of the range. Land Listing No. 6 This property has a similar location on a similarly-traveled thoroughfare just east of Harlem Avenue. The rear of the site backs the Cal-Sag Canal and is in a flood plain. Though the analysis is based on price per net square foot, the Cal-Sag frontage is considered a negative factor, requiring upward adjustment. The net adjustment for this listing is upward, but as a listing, it will represent the high end of the range. Conclusion The greatest emphasis is afforded Land Sale Nos. 1 and 2, considering their similar sizes and locations. The other sales and listings also support the value indicated by these two sales after adjustment. The indicated value of the subject site, as-vacant, is $5.50 per square foot, or ($5.50/SqFt x 161,000 SqFt), as rounded . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $885,000. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 36 th Sales Comparison Approach Definition The sales comparison approach is an appraisal technique by which a market value indication is derived by comparing the subject property to current, comparable sales and offerings relative to their respective prices. Variations in comparable properties are analyzed, quantified and adjusted to more closely reflect the features of the subject property. The adjusted values are then correlated to obtain a simulated value of the subject property. The reliability of this technique is dependent upon: 1. The availability of sales data. 2. The degree of comparability of each property with the subject property. 3. Reliability of sales data. 4. Knowledge and adjustment of unusual conditions effecting price or terms of sale. The sales comparison approach is based upon the principle of substitution. This implies that a prudent person will not pay more to buy or rent a property than it will cost to buy or rent a comparable property. Procedure 1. Conduct research to obtain the most recent and comparable property sales and listings in the subject market area. 2. Analyze and make adjustments to comparable sales considering all relevant differences including time of sale, location, physical and functional features, financing terms and other pertinent factors that affect value. 3. Analyze and interpret the data on the basis of a common and relevant unit of comparison, such as price per square foot of building area. Correlate the simulated values to obtain a value indication for the subject property. The following sales were utilized in the comparable sale analysis. Aerial photographs are utilized to show the full property of each comparable; actual photographs are retained in our file. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc.

Comparable Sales Map Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 45 th Sales Comparison Approach Analysis The subject is somewhat unique to the Chicagoland area, being an older, partially renovated motel displaying many features of a full service motel or conference center (large banquet/meeting rooms, kitchens, pool) but with a functionality, quality, and design more similar to an economy or limited service motel (no elevator, no room service, dated design, sprawling two-story layout). Very few truly similar properties were found in our extensive search of the Chicagoland area. As a result, we utilized sales of both motel and hotel properties, limited and full service designs. Our search extended throughout Chicagoland, but centered primarily on areas surrounding Chicagos OHare International and Midway Airports. Our search also emphasized relatively recent sales (in the last three years) in order to best reflect the current hospitality market. We also searched for listings of available hotel and motel properties and found very few listing in the entire Chicagoland area. While this may indicate there is some pent up demand, it is also an indication that in the current market almost all owners are choosing to hold their investment until market conditions improve. This is due to the very limited number of qualified buyers that can provided 50% down payments for this property type in the current lending climate. Individual sale details and adjustments are as follows: Sale No. 1 This is the most similar sale located in the Chicagoland area. It is at the relatively busy corner of North Avenue and Mannheim Road, about five miles south of OHare Airport. This location was considered slightly superior due to visibility and proximity to a busier airport. It is a larger building with more rooms and is adjusted upward. At the time of sale it was operating, but required significant renovations and is considered slightly superior to the subject in overall condition. It lacks the subjects amenities including large banquet rooms and pool, and it has considerably less parking. Overall this sale is adjusted upward 10% to $23.32 per square foot and $19,091 per room. Sale No. 2 This hotel is located in an area further from airports in the far south suburbs. It does have highway visibility from Interstate 57 and good access, but the location overall is distant from airports and considered significantly inferior. This is a former Holiday Inn which was underperforming. It was foreclosed on and displayed significant deferred maintenance Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 46 th Sales Comparison Approach at the time of sale, similar to the subject. It is adjusted upward for its considerably larger size. It has similar amenities overall, commensurate with its size, though the indoor pool is considered superior. Overall, this sale is adjusted upward 25% to $21.88 per square foot and $16,164 per room. Sale No. 3 This property is located in Calumet City with exposure to Interstate 94, but no airport proximity. It is adjusted upward for location. This is a smaller building and is much newer and in significantly superior condition, requiring downward adjustments. It is adjusted upward for its inferior banquet and meeting space, and a lack of a restaurant, though its indoor pool is superior. It requires upward adjustment on a per room basis for the quite small average room size. The net adjustment for this sale is downward 50% to $29.27 per square foot and 25% to $21,037 per room. Sale No. 4 This property is located in the western suburbs and is not close to an airport or a major interchange. It caters more toward residents and businesses in the area, but generates much higher room rates than the subject. Location adjustments are offset. It is a more modern facility with superior condition and appeal and is adjusted downward significantly. It has inferior amenities overall with no banquet or restaurant, requiring an upward adjustment. The net adjustment for this sale downward 40% for adjusted price indications of $25.49 per square foot and $16,364 per room. Sale No. 5 This property is a Super 8 branded hotel that was in good condition at the time of sale. It is not truly comparable due to its much smaller size and far superior condition. It is included due to its close proximity and similar location as the subject, and to display ongoing demand and prices paid for well-managed operating hotels. This sale would require downward adjustments in excess of 50% Listing No. 6 This is the only listing found of a similar property in the Chicagoland area. This listing expired without a sale and the building has since been razed. Since it was fire damaged, it would have required significant renovations and upward adjustment. As a listing, it is not really indicative of market value except to set a high end of the range, and is included for informational purposes only. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 47 th Sales Comparison Approach Listing No. 7 This listing is very distant, in Rockford. This listing was not inspected, but a good selection of listing photos, and Google imagery from August 2012 was reviewed. This listing was included due to its very similar size, number of rooms, and amenities, and its close proximity to a commercial airport. Downward adjustment is required for condition, and upward adjustments are required for location, partially offset by the low taxes ($36,000 for 2011) and immediate proximity to the airport. Overall, this listing requires upward adjustment. Conclusion After adjustments, the four primary sales have the following adjusted prices: Sale 1 2 3 4 $/SqFt $23.32 $21.88 $29.27 $25.49 $/Room $19,091 $16,164 $21,037 $16,364 Price Per Room On a price per room basis, after adjustment, the sales are roughly in the $16,000 to $21,000 range. Sales 1 and 2 are most similar overall with prices at both ends of the range. The subject has quite a bit of non-room income potential which will support a value near the higher end of the range, but it also has significant deferred maintenance and 17 of the rooms are completely unuseable. All sales are recent and relatively mutually supportive. The indicated value for this unit of comparison, considering the deferred maintenance and required renovations, is $18,000 per room or ($18,000 per room x 92 rooms, as rounded).. . . . . . . . . . . . . $1,660,000. Price Per Square Foot On a price per square foot basis, after adjustment, the sales are roughly in the $21.00 to $29.00 range. No single sale is emphasized, though Sales 1 and 2 are most similar in condition, but much larger overall, and Sale 4 is most similar in square footage per room. Considering this, the indicated value for this unit of comparison is at the middle of the range, at $25.00 per square foot or ($25.00 x 59,820 square feet, as rounded).. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $1,500,000.

American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 48 th Sales Comparison Approach Deduction for Real Estate Taxes As discussed on pages 21-22 of this report, the past due real estate taxes will require redemption before this property can be sold and this cost is estimated at $450,000. Therefore, the indicated value by the sales comparison approach as-adjusted for the taxes is ($1,575,000 - $450,000). . . . . . $1,125,000.

Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 49 th Final Reconciliation Summary The values attributed to the various approaches are as follows: Sales Comparison Approach $1,125,000 Income Capitalization Approach N/A Approaches to Value Cost The cost approach was not utilized considering the atypical design of the subject and the difficulty in estimating a base cost figure. Also, the subject suffers all three forms of depreciation: physical, due to typical wear and tear, deferred maintenance, and the age of the building, functional, due to its sprawling design and lack of elevators, and its excess land area, and external due to its location more distant than typical from Midway Airport, and its limited commercial exposure on a primarily residential street. The level of uncertainty will reduce the validity of this approach to a point where it is no longer applicable. Sales Comparison The sales comparison approach involves the comparison of the subject to recent sale transactions of properties with similar utility. Due to the subjects atypical design, with full- service amenities and economy-class quality and design, finding truly comparable properties was difficult. However, a reasonably comparable mix of recent sale transactions and listings was researched and compared to the subject. This data led to a reasonably supported conclusion. The sales comparison approach is emphasized. Income Capitalization The income capitalization approach is a good indicator of value for investment-grade hospitality properties where a strong income and expense and occupancy history is available. This is certainly a property which would be purchased for its income potential, but due to a complete lack of any financial, occupancy, or historical data for the subject, coupled with its atypical design and income structure, with banquet, tavern, and hotel components, as well as the current condition and required repairs, results in an income approach with little validity. The income approach was not considered applicable or reliable, and was not utilized in this appraisal. Bulthuis Realty Consultants Inc. American Midwest Hotel - 5001 W. 79 Street, Burbank, Illinois Page 50 th Final Reconciliation Value Conclusion The sales comparison approach is the only meaningful approach for this property. It is our opinion that the market value of the subject property, including FF&E, as of February 20, 2013, is. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $1,125,000.

The appraiser has no knowledge of the existence of such materials on or in the property unless otherwise stated. The appraiser, however, is not qualified to test such substances or conditions. If the presence of such substances, such as asbestos, urea formaldehyde foam insulation, or other hazardous substances or environmental conditions, may affect the value of the property, the value estimated is predicated on the assumption that there is no such condition on or in the property or in such proximity thereto that it would cause a loss in value.
