Scope and Limitations:
In the review of all data, we have relied upon all of the referenced information withoutindependent verification and therefore it is totally dependant upon the information provided byGift Gallery LTD. Any change in the critical information that was relied upon as part of theprocess of this valuation would certainly justify a reassessment of the final conclusion of the fairmarket value.
Standard of Value:
The fair market value is defined as follows: The fair market value of a business is the value atwhich the business would change hands between a willing seller and a willing buyer when neitheris under a compulsion and when both have reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts.
A fair market transaction must be a “win-win” for all parties concerned. The fair market value ofa going business is that value at which the normalized spendable income stream of the businesscan accomplish three critical criteria: 1) It must be able to support the structured market debtservice that would be created from a hypothetical business sale in the business’ market area. 2) Itmust be able to pay the owner a market rate salary as determined by the size, type and location ofthe business to current industry standards of a similar business within the same market area. 3) Itmust be able to pay the owner a market rate of return on his/her investment as determined by thecurrent market standards.

FINAL DETERMINATION OF VALUEVS
BOOK VALUE AND ADJUSTED BOOK VALUE METHODS
Business Value: $330,349
Book Value Method: ($40,001)Less: Adjusted Book Value Method: ($33,628)
Intangibles (Good Will) Value: $363,977
Book Value Method:
The book value as of December 31 2005 was ($40,001). Book value is an accounting valuethat is calculated by subtracting total liabilities from total assets. Book value wasselected because it will give us more of a well rounded look at the state of the companyand it will give us one more comparison to determine the reasonableness of the finaldetermination of value. It was rejected because balance sheets are prepared on ahistorical cost basis, in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principals; thebook value of a business does not necessarily consider the fair market value of theunderlying assets. We are more concerned with the income producing ability of theassets than their book value.
Adjusted Book Value – Going Concern Method:
The adjusted book value as of December 31 2005 was ($33,628). The adjusted bookvalue of this going concern method develops a valuation indicated by adjusting thereported book values of a subject company’s assets to its actual or estimated fair marketvalues and subtracting its liabilities (adjusted to fair market value, if appropriate). Thismethod was considered in the valuation of Gift Gallery LTD because it would benecessary to compare the estimated fair market value of the assets to the finaldetermination of value. If the fair market value of the assets is worth more than thedetermined value of the business, it would be better to sell the assets outright, not thebusiness as a going concern. This method was rejected because the estimated fair marketvalue of the assets individually is not an indicator of the income producing ability of theassemblage of all of the assets.

TEST OF REASONABLENESS
To test the reasonableness of our opinion as to the fair market value of Gift Gallery LTD, we performed aproof of valuation analysis. This analysis includes assumptions regarding the cash down payment, the termsof the purchase notes, and the Company’s projected cash flows. This analysis looks at the final opinion ofthe fair market value and determines the functionality of the ensuing projected cash flows and anticipatedfinancing conclusions. The assumptions regarding the terms of the hypothetical purchase are presented inthe following schedule and represents the findings from our analysis.
Final determination of market value: $330,349
From normalized income statement:
Net operating income (NPBT): $101,300
Balance available to retire monthly debt service: $7,608
Buyer return on investment $ (ROI) : $10,009
Source of Purchase Funds Amount Terms (yrs) Interest Mo. Payment
Financial Institution Financing:
Auto / Truck $6,697 4 7.00 $160Inventory $75,539 3 7.00 $2,332Machinery/Equipment $0 0.00 NaNOffice Furniture/Fixtures $19,832 3 7.50 $617Other Financing $0 0.00 NaNReal Estate $0 0.00 NaNSeller Financing $145,694 3 7.00 $4,499
Total $247,762 $7,608
Based upon the hypothetical terms presented above, the Company’s projected cash flows were estimated toascertain whether or not they cover the hypothetical interest and principal payments. The buyer post-salecash flow was calculated in the following manner:
1. The projected before-tax income was reduced by interest payments on hypothetical purchasenotes.
2. The projected post-sale pre-tax income was reduced by an income tax factor of 0.0%.3. All non-cash expenses were added back.4. The principal portion of all debt instruments (re-sale and post-sale) was deducted.
Test #1:Opinion of business value: $330,349Total Down payment + Debt: $330,349
Variance (Should be “0”): $0
Test #2:Balance available to retire monthly debt plus ROI: $8,442Structured monthly debt service payments: - $7,608Monthly Cash Flow Before Taxes (ROI) - $834
Variance (Should be “0”): $0

TEST OF REASONABLENESS (CONTINUED)
Test #3:Net operating income (NPBT): $101,300Less: Balance available to retire debt service: $91,291
Amount available for buyer ROI: $10,009
Buyer required return on investment $ (ROI) : $10,009Amount available for buyer ROI: $10,009Variance (Should be “0”): $0
Test Conclusion:
The final opinion of value for Gift Gallery LTD of $330,349 passes the “test of reasonableness” because: 1)The total of all of the purchase funds created from the down payment and structured financing, equals thefinal opinion of value. 2) The total monthly payments of all structured financing at the hypothetical saleprice, equals the total amount of the spendable cash flow available to make such payments. 3) The totalamount of cash flow needed to give the buyer a fair market return on their investment equals the balance ofthe spendable cash flow that is made available to make such a payment. 4) The integrity of the buyer’s ROIis maintained because a fair market salary was used in the normalization of income streams process andtherefore does not dilute the total cash flow stream structured for the buyer.
Therefore:
Based on the above analysis, the priced cash flows are sufficient to pay the assumed interest and principledue on the hypothetical purchase notes and existing notes.

DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE
The market value is the most probable price that a business should bring in a competitive
and open market under all conditions necessary for a fair sale presuming the buyer and
seller each act prudently, knowledgeably, and assuming the price is not affected by undue
stimuli. Implicit in this definition the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and
the title from seller to buyer under condition by:
1. Buyer and seller are typically motivated.
2. Both parties are well informed or well advised and each of them is acting in what
one considers one’s own best interests.
3. A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market.
4. Payment is made in terms of cash of the same currency which the business has
adopted as their accounting standard or in terms of financial arrangements
comparable thereto.
5. The price represents the normal consideration for the business sold unaffected by
special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated
with the sale.
A fair market transaction must be a “win-win” for all parties concerned. The fair market
value of a going business, in its specific market, is that value where the normalized
spendable income stream of the business can accomplish three criteria.
1. It must be able to support the structured debt service that is created from the
business sale.
2. It must be able to pay the owner a fair salary as determined by the size, type and
location of the business to current market standards.
3. It must be able to pay the owner a fair return on their investment as determined by
current market standards.

VALUATION TECHNIQUES (METHODOLOGIES)
This evaluation has not used some of the industries’ typical valuation techniques because
of their commonly known inaccuracy. One of the major problems with using the different
techniques listed below is that the price they establish gives no guarantee or even a
probable chance that the evaluated business will be able to support the debt service which
the sale has created. If the debt service payments cannot be made, there is certainly no
chance of profit, even in companies that were profitable before the sale. Some evaluators
believe that if you use more than one of these techniques you can then average them for a
more accurate answer. This is just not true. A list of these valuation techniques and the
reasons for their inherent inaccuracy are provided below.
CAPITALIZATION OF EARNINGS
This approach is an income approach where the earnings of the business are capitalized
into the total value. The accuracy of this technique is dependent upon the evaluator being
able to accurately select at rate of return that reflects both the tangible and the intangible
assets of the business. The more stable the business’ income stream, the lower he
capitalization rate. If the income stream is more speculative, the capitalization rate is
higher. The technique also applies a weighted average and a division factor to the
earnings of those years analyzed. Since a small discrepancy in the arbitrary selection of
the factor of the rate of return can adversely affect the business’ value by many thousands
of dollars, it was not used for this evaluation.
PRICE TO EARNING (P/E) RATIO APPROACH
The users of this approach believe that the value of a business is determined according to
a relationship that the selling price of common stocks in publicly-owned and traded
companies has to the annual earnings of these companies. One of the shortcomings here
is that this ratio is determined from the sale of smaller “blocks” of stock, a much different
situation than purchasing 100% of a company or even a controlling share. Many times,
the P/E ratio within an industry increases or decreases for reasons not associated with the

36
industry but rather due to other market conditions (such as political circumstances of the
time). These factors could seriously distort the value of the business. For these reasons,
this technique cannot be considered accurate.
DISCOUNTED FUTURE EARNINGS APPROACH
This valuation approach establishes the market value of a business by projecting the
value of its future cash flows and then discounting them back to their present value. This
approach relies on the evaluator’s ability to perform two almost impossible tasks. First,
the evaluator must be able to accurately project future cash flows for periods as distant as
ten years. Second, the evaluator must establish a realistic discount value to apply to these
future cash flows. These can only be considered as “educated guesses”, not an acceptable
accurate valuation technique.
COST TO CREATE APPROACH
With this approach, an examination of the subject business’ records will show us what
was the actual cost to create (start) the business. This cost includes organizational costs,
assemblage of personal costs, acquisition of lease or real estate costs, assemblage of fixed
assets costs, development of intangible (goodwill) costs and the costs of the net tangible
assets. This method requires the summation of all of these costs. There are many
problems with this approach with the biggest being the reality of having an accurate way
to figure the intangible costs; it is simply impossible to accurately calculate and therefore
makes this technique inaccurate.
ECONOMIC MULTIPLES OF VALUE APPROACH
The economic multiples approach is simply the use of “market” originated multiples that
are multiplied to different areas of a business’ financial statement. An example of this
would be that hotels and motels “should” sell for between 3 and 4 times their gross sales.
There is no accuracy when using multiples. No one knows from where they came or how
they were created. A range of multiples such as the example given above can show a
difference in the market value (selling price) of tens and even hundreds of thousands of

37
dollars. Therefore, this valuation technique cannot be considered accurate enough for this
analysis.
THE RULES OF THUMB APPROACH
This approach closely resembles the “Multiples” approach. Over a period of time,
different industry shortcuts for valuation are created. One example of this would be that
taverns are “supposed” to sell for $10,000 per bar stool. If the seller wants to increase the
value, why not just add some more bar stools? From this example one can see how even
the slightest difference in the number will affect the final valuation by many thousands of
dollars.
BALANCE SHEET (SUMMATION OF ASSETS) APPROACH
In this approach the value of a business is established by the summation of the market
value of its assets. In it, the current market value of all of the business’ assets, including
the intangibles, are totaled to arrive at the total market value for the business. Upon
inspection of the balance sheet, the intangibles (also known as goodwill) may or may not
be found. If an established value for goodwill was carried over from the allocation of the
selling price from a prior sale, the goodwill can not be depreciated and remains on the
balance sheet without change. If there was not a prior sale, none is listed. How can you
verify the value of goodwill if it is listed? How do you establish the value of goodwill if it
is not listed? Since the fair market of “goodwill” cannot be substantiated, the total value
arrived at by this approach is distorted to an unacceptable level.

EVALUATOR’S COMMENTS
The business valuation in this study is an evaluation of the subject business as a going
business only. This valuation is not an appraisal of the individual parts making up this
business, but rather an evaluation of how the individual parts work together to create
the spendable cash flows that form it into a going business.
In this evaluation it is not the evaluator’s intention to determine if the integral parts
that make up this business are being used for their best or highest income producing
value. It is an evaluation of the income that they are creating. The market values of
those individual assets that can be used as collateral to support the structured business
loans are only considered. If the business’ value as an existing business is less than
the current market value of its parts, the parts should then be sold separately for their
higher value.
A business is worth that price at which it will support its structured debt service and
pay a fair salary to the owner along with a fair return on the owner’s investment. This
evaluation considers all of these criteria using the listed existing market variables of
interest rates, loan terms, rent factors, wage rates and other factors as listed under the
attached schedule entitled “Market Variables Used in Analysis”. Mathematically,
under these existing variables, there is only ONE business value that will allow the
business to meet these three criteria. This evaluation is a study that calculates that
value.
Once the business’ value is determined, the breakdown of its price is not a function of
determining the market value of its individual parts (assets) but rather is a function of
tax allocations that must be properly determined by accountants and tax attorneys. An
example of items that would be allocated and included in a business’ value would be:
real estate and land (if any), furniture, fixtures, equipment, goodwill, covenants not-

signage, trade names, business records, leases, licenses, franchise rights and so on.
