INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY The following is an offering for membership interests in RD Northern Equities LLC (the “Company”). Such offering pertains to the acquisition, financing and ownership of the approximately 301,000 square foot commercial loft building, known as the Standard Motor Products Building, located at 37-18 Northern Boulevard, Long Island City 11101 (the “Property”). The Property will be owned in a Joint Venture, in which the Company will be a joint venture partner. The other Joint Venture Partner will be J.P. Morgan Asset Management (“JPM”). The closing of the acquisition of the Property is estimated to occur on March 14, 2008 for a purchase price of $40,600,000. JPM has made a commitment to contribute 90% of the equity (estimated at $14,400,000) required for the acquisition and renovation of the Property. The total amount of investment capital sought through this offering is $1,600,000. BUSINESS PLAN The business plan for the Company is to renovate the Property, lease the space in the building at market rents as the current below market leases expire, and capitalize on the enhanced value of the asset by either selling or refinancing the Property. The Company believes that it has taken advantage of an opportunity to acquire a property with a solid anchor tenant, situated in a highly desirable infill location in a strong New York City submarket, with in-place rents that are significantly below current market rates, and at a favorable price ($134.88 per square foot) which is at a substantial discount to replacement cost. The seller of the Property, Standard Motor Products, Inc. (“SMP”), will lease back 222,000 square feet at closing, until the finalization of their plans to relocate their manufacturing operations abroad and reconfigure their office space at the Property. SMP will have 6 – 18 months to relocate their manufacturing after which they will vacate approximately 129,000 square feet, and retain approximately 93,000 square feet of office space for their corporate headquarters on a 10 year term. The rent for the manufacturing space and the office space will be at $9 per square foot and $17 per square foot respectively. The short term lease of the manufacturing space to SMP is anticipated to provide cash flow during renovations to the Property as well as time to market the space which will be vacated by SMP to new tenants at significantly higher rents. The Company plans to complete major capital improvements to the Property including new windows, exterior lighting and signage; elevator, electrical and building systems upgrades; lobby renovations, and the creation of modern common corridors. Comparable properties in the area which have undergone similar renovations have been rented at rates of $23 - $27 per square foot. In addition to SMP, the Property is leased to 4 other Tenant’s who occupy 79,000 square feet under below market leases all of which expire within the next 3 years. Current in place rents at the Property are approximately $11.05 per square foot modified gross. The Company foresees strong demand for the Property due to the increasing development of luxury residential units in Long Island City, the reduction of office and industrial space in Brooklyn and Queens due to residential conversion, the soaring commercial rents in Manhattan, the current low vacancy in Long Island City, and the success of similar projects in the marketplace completed by the Co-Managers and other property owners. The renovations and re-leasing of the Property, which are estimated to be completed in 30 – 36 months, are anticipated to substantially enhance the value of the Property. Upon completion of the renovations and releasing of the Property, the Company intends to sell the Property to capitalize on the additional value created. This offering sets forth two financial forecasts based on several assumptions. Financial Forecast “A” assumes the Company is able to sell the Property at the end of Year 4 of operation. If the Company is unable to sell the Property at the end of

Page 8: INVESTOR EQUITY: $1,600,000 64 UNITS AT $25,000 PER UNIT€¦ · The seller of the Property, Standard Motor Products, Inc. (“SMP”), will lease back 222,000 square feet at closing,

Year 4 at a favorable price, as an alternative, the Company will attempt to refinance the Loan on the Property. A Financial Forecast “B” has been created in which it is assumed the Company refinances the Property at the end of Year 4, and continues to operate the Property for a 10 year period. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION The Property is a 100% occupied, approximately 301,000 square foot commercial loft building located at 37-18 Northern Boulevard, in Long Island City, New York. The Property was constructed in 1919 and is seven stories with approximately 43,000 square foot floor plates, occupying a full city block situated on a .992 acre lot. The construction consists of concrete block walls, concrete columns and concrete floors. The facades are designed in a traditional industrial style, with painted concrete exterior framing members, painted stucco installed over brick veneer infill, with steel-framed glazing systems with fiberglass translucent panels, and operable windows. There is one 3,500 lb capacity Otis passenger elevator, and two 8,000 lb capacity Otis freight elevators. In 2001 a new acrylic polyurethane roofing system was installed over the existing low-slope roof, which is under a 10-year warranty. The interior of the buildings are arranged with largely open plan with some office areas. The majority of the building has ceiling heights of 13 - 14 feet. LOCATION The Property is located on Northern Boulevard, a major retail and commercial thoroughfare, between Standard Lane and 39th Streets (39th Street turns into Steinway Street), in Long Island City, New York, less than 2 miles from Manhattan. Local surface arteries, interstate and state highway systems provide excellent access to the Property, making it an attractive location for various types of businesses. The Property is located within one mile of the Long Island Expressway (I-495) which runs in an east-west direction, 1.5 miles of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (I-278) which runs primarily in a north-south direction, and less than one mile from the entrance of the Queensboro Bridge which provides direct access to Midtown Manhattan. Long Island City is the western-most neighborhood of the borough of Queens in New York City. It is bounded on the north and west by the East River; on the east by Hazen Street, 49th Street, and New Calvary Cemetery, and on the south by Newtown Creek which separates Queens from Greenpoint, Brooklyn. It remains the largest neighborhood in Queens Borough and in recent years has developed into an increasingly popular place of residence for commuters working in Manhattan. Because of this newfound reputation, the neighborhood has started to attract a number of real estate development projects. New York City had committed to the continuation of the transformation of Long Island City into the 4th Central Business District of the City (the other 3 being, Midtown & Downtown Manhattan, and Downtown Brooklyn). The City of New York and the Federal government have dedicated almost $50 million in infrastructure investment to Long Island City. Queens Plaza, a primary entry point to LIC and all of Queens, will be transformed into a dynamic and inviting gateway. In addition, Jackson Avenue (which turns into Northern Boulevard at Queens Boulevard), the district’s central spine, will be recreated as a major boulevard. Open spaces will be redesigned and basic improvements such as new sidewalks, tree planting and lighting are planned for secondary streets throughout the district. “Long Island City is one of our greatest opportunities for growth. With 37 blocks of newly rezoned land directly across from Midtown Manhattan, Long Island City is an ideal location to provide capacity for New York City's growing demand for affordable office space. Our significant public investments are encouraging commercial and residential development

throughout the area and serve as a prime example of this Administration’s commitment to supporting growth and creating jobs in all five boroughs.” - Michael R. Bloomberg, Mayor, New York City) The Long Island City story continues to evolve, supporting a strong past while simultaneously responding to the quickly changing economy. With manufacturing still providing an important foundation of jobs and economic stability for the community, Long Island City has seen a growing arts and cultural movement take root. This tradition is anchored by larger institutions such as PS 1, the Isamu Noguchi Museum, the American Museum of the Moving Image, and Socrates Park, Fisher Landau Center for Art, Holocenter Center for the Holographic Arts, Sculpture Center, and temporary facilities for The Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) and the Museum for African Art. It is supplemented by a number of smaller galleries, studios, a thriving community of individual artists, and businesses serving the creative and entertainment industries. Silvercup and Kaufman-Astoria Studios have grown extensively, representing a thriving film and television production presence in Long Island City. A major residential, commercial, and retail development is in the process of being built on the East River in the district's southwestern corner called Queens West. According to projections, Queens West will provide 74 acres of mixed use, with potential build-out estimates consisting of three distinct neighborhoods in four development stages. The Property’s location is ideal for Public transportation, with the R line (access to Queens, Manhattan, and Brooklyn), the G line (access to Queens and Brooklyn), and the V line (access to Queens and Manhattan) all located within .1 mile (less than 1/2 block) of the Property entrance. Long Island City is further served by the New York City Subway 7, E, F, N, and W trains (five minute commute to Midtown Manhattan). Additional transportation options include numerous surface bus routes and access to the Long Island Rail Road and the NY Water Taxi commuter ferry service. LONG ISLAND CITY OFFICE MARKET OVERVIEW The Long Island City and Queens Office markets consist mainly of Class B and C professional spaces which are primarily located above retail stores or exist as converted lofts. These offices are often in converted apartments that limit options for companies to physically grow. These low-rise facilities are over 40-50 years old and offer small floor plates with limited-to-no amenities. Average Long Island City office market rents for comparable properties are in the range of $23-$25 per square foot. For figures relating to the first half of 2007, average rent in Queens for Class A space was $31.17 per square foot with a 6.5% vacancy rate. Rents in Queens have been rising in the past few years, with Class A rent in 2004 averaging $28 per square foot. Overall vacancy rates in Queens fell from 7.1% to 6.5% quarter-to-quarter and from 10.2% one year ago. Low vacancy and high demand has sent Manhattan office rents skyrocketing (increased by 30% in 2006 and 26% in 2007). This has resulted in more office tenants relocating into the outer boroughs. Current industries relocating into the market include entertainment-oriented firms, financial service companies – specifically back office and support staff, high-end jewelry manufacturers, distributors from Manhattan's famed Diamond District, architectural firms, tenants that require impressive showroom space, and non-profit organizations.

RELOCATION AND EMPLOYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (REAP) The Property is eligible for the Relocation and Employment Assistance Program (REAP) which provides tax credits for businesses that relocate from outside of New York City or from Manhattan below 96th Street to eligible buildings in either Manhattan above 96th Street or to Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, or the Bronx. Provided certain criteria are met, a tenant will receive an annual $3,000 tax credit for each employee relocated to the Property for 12 years. As an example, assume a 2,000 square foot tenant has 4 employees relocating; the annual credit will be $12,000 per year, which equates to $6.00 per square feet in credits. The company plans to market the Property to Manhattan firms seeking more affordable space alternatives and will assist businesses in securing REAP benefits. In addition, the Property potentially qualifies for several other incentives with may reduce the Company’s expenses, including the Industrial and Commercial Incentive Program (ICIP), Commercial Expansion Program (CEP), and the Energy Cost Savings Program (ECSP). The Company intends to apply for all of the above mentioned programs, plus any additional programs that will benefit the Property and business plan.

THE CO-MANAGERS Acumen Capital Partners LLC (“Acumen”) is a private investment company founded by Jeffrey Rosenblum and Ashish Dua in 2005. The two principals have over 30 years of combined experience in all aspects of the real estate industry including acquisition, leasing, management, financing, and construction. Jeff and Ashish have been partners at Time Equities, Inc., since 2004, and have recently decided to focus 100% of their time on Acumen. Jeffrey Rosenblum and Ashish Dua will be the Co-Managers of the Company. Jeffrey Rosenblum is a Co-Managing Member of Acumen Capital Partners LLC. Since 1999 Jeffrey Rosenblum has served as Project Director of Acquisitions and Asset Management for Time Equities, Inc., a private real estate investment company owning a portfolio of over 20 million square feet of office, industrial, retail, and residential properties, in 27 states, 3 Canadian Provinces, and Europe. His duties include overseeing the development, management and leasing of a portfolio valued in excess of $500 million consisting of over 3,700,000 square feet of commercial and industrial real estate; the creation and maintenance of management systems and controls for the portfolio and the development of asset management strategies for each property within the portfolio. With over 20 years experience in the real estate industry, Jeff has consistently identified, acquired, and repositioned assets to deliver above market returns on value added transactions. Throughout his career, Jeff has been responsible for the lease-up of over 2,000,000 sf of office/flex space in Long Island City. In a recent example, he was able to acquire the Scalamandre Silks Building, 110,000 square foot industrial property in Long Island City, NY from Scalamandre Silks for $7,150,000 in January of 2004. As part of the transaction, Scalamandre was to fully occupy the building for a period of one year at below market rent, and then downsize to 20% of the building. Upon the downsizing, Jeff was able to reposition the asset from a single tenant manufacturing building to a multi-tenanted building with use as showroom/office space for such uses such as artists, high-tech industries, and architectural firms. After implementing $2,000,000 renovation of the property including common corridors, common bathrooms, new electrical wiring, new plumbing, and window replacement, the property has been leased to over 40 companies at rents more than double the rent prior to the renovation. As of December 2007, rents at the property have increased to $15 per square foot NNN. In early 2007, Jeff refinanced the property with an $11,900,000 mortgage, distributing all of the invested equity capital to investors in 3 years. Today, the value of the property has more than doubled. In 2003 Jeff led the repositioning of 3100 Research Blvd, a 300,000 square foot Class “A” office building in Dayton, Ohio. The property had been a single tenant facility owned by Eastman Kodak. At the time of the purchase the occupancy was at 35%. In less than 2 years Jeff was able to increase the occupancy to over 80%, more than tripling the value of the asset, by leasing the asset to credit tenants such as the U.S. Government, United Healthcare, and Mission Research Corp.

MANAGEMENT AND LEASING OF THE PROPERTY The Property will be managed either by a local, third party property manager or by Acumen Capital Partners LLC, an affiliate of the Co-Managers, for a monthly management fee equal to 4½% of the collected rents for the Property. The Property will be leased either a local, third party property manager or by Acumen for market leasing commissions for any lease of space at the Property based on the usual and customary fees paid to an unrelated third party leasing broker for a similar type of property and lease. Acumen is owned by Jeffrey Rosenblum and Ashish Dua, Co-Managing Members of the Company. ACQUISITION FEE An acquisition fee of $111,650 will be funded to Acumen Capital Partners LLC from the proceeds of this offering. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS Some of the income to the Investors may be partially tax deferred as a result of depreciation deductions. Thus, a portion of distributions may be tax deferred in the year they are paid. Tax calculations depend on each Investor’s individual tax situation. It is suggested that each Investor consult his or her accountant on these matters to verify the tax impact of an investment of this nature. In compliance with IRS Circular 230 requirements, taxpayers are hereby informed that any U.S. tax advice contained in this Private Placement Memorandum is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of avoiding tax penalties or in connection with marketing or promotional materials. As used herein, the term “taxpayer” includes, but is not limited to, an Investor, or prospective Investor, advisor or any Investor or advisor of any prospective Investor, and person reading this Private Placement Memorandum. SOME RISK FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED 1.) Market Risk: Although the Property is currently 100% leased by 5 tenants who are currently performing under the obligations of their respective leases, there is no guarantee that they will continue to do so in the future. In the event that the tenants do not perform under their respective leases according to the assumptions in our financial projections, there is no guarantee as to the time period it will take to find replacement tenants. Moreover, there is no guarantee as to what the actual rent will be at the time such replacement tenant can be found. Therefore, any such variance in either the re-leasing period or market rent level could have a significant impact on the cash flow available for distributions to Investors, either positively or negatively. 2.) Variances from the Financial Forecast: The Financial Forecast presents estimates of the expected operating results of the Property for the periods covered therein. It is based upon assumptions reflecting conditions expected to exist and the course of action the Company expects to take during the forecast period. The assumptions as to future events and conditions which the Company believes to be reasonable are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. The assumptions may prove to be incomplete or incorrect and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur. The financial strength of the tenants currently in place can alter our assumptions. Because of these uncertainties and the other risks outlined in this Executive Summary, the actual results of the

Page 18: INVESTOR EQUITY: $1,600,000 64 UNITS AT $25,000 PER UNIT€¦ · The seller of the Property, Standard Motor Products, Inc. (“SMP”), will lease back 222,000 square feet at closing,

18

Company can be expected to be different than those projected and the differences may be material and adverse. Potential Investors should consider the projections in light of the underlying assumptions to reach their own conclusions as to the reasonableness of those assumptions and to evaluate the projections on the basis of that analysis. 3.) Mortgage Loan Risk: At closing, the Company expects to secure a first mortgage loan for the Property in the approximate amount of $29,000,000 as well approximately $10,000,000 in credit lines. It is assumed that the debt service payments on such first mortgage loan and credit lines will be made on an interest-only basis for the full 3-year term of the loan. The interest rate on the first mortgage loan (“Mortgage”) is estimated at 7.75% per annum. There is no guarantee as to what the actual interest rate, prepayment and loan terms and loan proceeds will be at the closing. Therefore, any change is such rate, prepayment and loan terms or proceeds amount may have a material effect, either positively or negatively, on the net cash flow available for distribution to investors. The loan will require the Company to make a lump-sum or “balloon” payment at maturity. The Company’s ability to make a balloon payment at maturity is uncertain and may depend on its ability, on or prior to the maturity date, to either refinance such mortgage or to sell the Property. At the time any such balloon payment is due, the Company may or may not be able to refinance such mortgage loan on terms as favorable as the original mortgage loan or to sell or refinance the Property at an amount sufficient to make such balloon payment. If the Company is forced to sell the Property the price and terms of such sale may be lower than the amount the Company could obtain if it was otherwise not forced to sell the Property to make such balloon payment. The Financial Forecasts assumes other loan transactions as part of refinancings. The assumptions of those loans are also subject to the risks mentioned above. 5.) Environmental Risks: Property Solutions Inc, an environmental consulting firm, has completed a Phase I Environmental Assessment for the Property, dated October 12, 2007. In the report, the Property is listed on the New York State Registry of Inactive Hazardous Waste Disposal Sites and the NYSDEC entered into an order of consent with Standard Motor Products Inc. SMP is the responsible party for the remedial action necessary and has indemnified the Company for any liabilities that arises due to this known NYSDEC condition. The primary soil and groundwater contaminants are trichlorethane, lead and petroleum hydrocarbons, although additional volatile organic compounds are also present. SMP is coordinating all remedial actions with the NYSDEC in order to attain closure approval of the case. In addition SMP has an environmental insurance policy in place that will name the Company as an additionally insured. Furthermore, the Company shall purchase an additional $10 Million environmental insurance policy as further protection for any unknown conditions. However, there is no guarantee that SMP will fulfill their obligations to remediate the Property. Therefore, if SMP does not fulfill such obligations, the Company may be forced to complete the remediation at its own expense, impacting the Financial Forecasts. Investors should also be aware of general environmental risks pertaining to the ownership of real estate. Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real property may be liable for the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances on such property. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Environmental laws may also impose restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require expenditures.

19

6.) Liquidity Risk as to the Sale of the Property: While Financial Forecast A assumes a sale of the Property at the end of the 4th year, there is no guarantee that the Property will or can be sold then. While Financial Forecast B assumes a sale of the Property at the end of the 10th year, there is no guarantee that the Property will or can be sold then. 7.) Residual Value of the Property: The value of the Property upon a sale will depend upon a number of factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the value of the underlying land, the condition of a property, market conditions, and the tax treatment applicable to a sale of a property and general economic conditions at the time of sale of a Property. 8.) No Control by Members: Under the Operating Agreement for the Company or an Exchange Companies the Co-Managers have broad management discretion over the business of the Company and therefore the operations of the Property. No Member, in such person's capacity as a Member is entitled to participate in the conduct or control of the business of any such entity. 9.) No Market for Units and Illiquidity of the Investment: It is not anticipated that any public market will exist for the membership interests in the Company and the Operating Agreement (other than transfers to permissible transferees, e.g., immediate family members, transfers upon death, transfers to an entity controlled and owned, as to a majority in interest, by the transferor) imposes a right of first refusal prior to, and certain other restrictions on transfer, which may have the effect of ensuring that a market will not develop. Therefore, the members of the Company may not be able to sell their respective membership interests should a need for personal funds arise and the price received in any sale may be less than the value of the interest sold. In addition to the above risks, an Investor must bear the economic risk of their investment for an unspecified period of time. 10.) Risks of Competition: The Property will be operating in a competitive market. In the event that any of the Tenants vacate their respective spaces prior to the expiration of their respective leases, the Company will be competing for tenants on the basis of location, access, rental rates, size and layouts of space, tenant improvements offered by the Company, amenities within leased space, the quality of the surrounding area and a variety of other factors. The success of the Company will depend to a large degree upon its ability to compete with other similar types of properties, which in turn depends upon its ability to be competitive as to the foregoing factors. The failure of the Company to establish and maintain a favorable market position would have a material adverse effect on its profitability. 11.) Risks of Ownership: The profitability of the Property is subject to general economic conditions, the management abilities of the managing agent, competition, desirability of the location of the Property, the structural and operating conditions of the Property, the physical appearance of the Property, and other factors. To remain competitive, continuing expenditures must be made to modernize, refurbish and maintain existing facilities. This increases the need for capital funds (whether from reserves, current cash flow or debt financing) and thereby increases the sensitivity of the investment to the cost and availability of such funds, while decreasing operating revenues to the extent that space at the Property remains vacant. For this purpose and in anticipation of such expenditures, reserves will be maintained by the Company, as determined by the Co-Managing Members, to pay for required tenant improvements, leasing commissions, capital improvements, and other unanticipated or unbudgeted expenses in operating the Property. In addition, inflationary pressures could increase operating expenses above expected levels, thereby decreasing profitability to the extent rents cannot be raised by corresponding amounts.

12.) Risks regarding the distribution of the IRS Schedule K-1 tax form. Although the Co-Managers will make every effort to complete and distribute to investors their individual K-1 tax forms in a timely manner, there is no guarantee that in each tax year these forms can or will be completed in time for the investors to file their taxes on or prior to the general April 15 tax deadline. In the event that such K-1s are not completed in a timely manner prior to the April 15th tax deadline, it is possible that investors may have to file an extension to complete their tax returns. THE ABOVE POTENTIAL RISKS ARE NOT INTENDED TO BE AN EXHAUSTIVE LIST OF POTENTIAL AREAS OF RISK AND INVESTORS ARE URGED TO CONSIDER SUCH RISKS BEFORE MAKING A DECISION TO INVEST IN THE PROPERTY. INVESTORS SHALL ALSO REVIEW CAREFULLY THE RISK FACTORS THAT WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY. RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CO-MANAGERS The Co-Managers are responsible for the management and administration of the Company, which include the following: (i) preparing or reviewing projections of cash flow, taxable income or loss and working capital requirements; (ii) conducting periodic physical inspections and reviews to determine if and when the Company assets should be sold and the acceptable terms of such sale; (iii) overseeing arrangements for refinancing of existing debt and any debt financing for capital improvements or in connection with the purchase of assets; (iv) supervising any litigation involving the Company; (v) communicating with investors; (vi) supervising and reviewing Company bookkeeping, accounting and audits; (vii) supervising the preparation of and reviewing Company state and federal tax returns; (viii) serving as the “tax matters partner” for the Company; (ix) supervising the leasing of space at the Property; and (x) supervising professionals employed by the Company in connection with any of the foregoing, including architects, contractors, attorneys, accountants, appraisers, investment bankers and financing brokers. FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE CO-MANAGERS The Co-Managers are in a fiduciary relationship to the Company and its Members. As such, the Co-Managers are required to exercise good faith and integrity in dealings with respect to the affairs of the Company. The Operating Agreement for the Company provides that the Co-Managers and their Affiliates who perform services for the Company on behalf of the Co-Managers (within the scope of the Co-Managers’ authority as Co-Managers) will have no liability to the Company or to any Member of the Company for any loss which arises out of any action or inaction of the Co-Managing Members or Affiliate if (i) such action or inaction was determined by the Co-Managers or their Affiliate, in good faith, to be in the best interest of the Company and such action or inaction was within the scope of the Co-Managers’ authority and (ii) such course of conduct did not constitute gross negligence, fraud, willful misconduct or an intentional breach of any material provisions of the Operating Agreements. Thus, the Investors may have a more limited right of action against the Co-Managers and their Affiliates than would otherwise be the case absent such provisions. The Operating Agreements for the Company further provide for indemnification of the Co-Managers and their Affiliates by the Company under certain circumstances. The Co-Managers and their Affiliates who perform services for the Company on behalf of the Co-Managers, within the scope of their authority as the Co-Managers will be indemnified out of Company, as the case may be, assets for any loss, liability or expenses arising from its conduct whenever (i) such course

Page 21: INVESTOR EQUITY: $1,600,000 64 UNITS AT $25,000 PER UNIT€¦ · The seller of the Property, Standard Motor Products, Inc. (“SMP”), will lease back 222,000 square feet at closing,

21

of conduct was determined by the Co-Managers or such Affiliate, in good faith, to be in the best interest of the Company and such course of conduct was within the Co-Managers’ authority and (ii) such course of conduct does not constitute gross negligence, fraud, willful misconduct or an intentional breach of any material provisions of the Operating Agreement. Under the Operating Agreements, the Company shall also indemnify and hold harmless the Co-Managers as to any and all claims, causes of action, liabilities, obligations, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) which are incurred by any of the Co-Managers in connection with their execution and delivery of an environmental indemnity and/or guaranty for any loan for the Property. The ability of the Co-Managers to be indemnified for any losses, liabilities or expenses arising out of an alleged violation of Federal or state securities laws is subject to certain additional limitations. In the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 is against public policy and, therefore, unenforceable. A successful indemnification of the Co-Managers or an Affiliate could deplete the assets of the Company, unless the Company’s indemnification obligation is covered by insurance. The Company currently does not anticipate obtaining such insurance. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

The Members of the Company are subject to various conflicts of interest arising out of its relationship with the Co-Managing Members, Acumen Capital Partners LLC and their respective Affiliates. All agreements and arrangements, including those relating to compensation of Affiliates of the Co-Managers are not the result of arms length negotiations. These conflicts including, but are not limited to, the following: (A) Competition by the Company with the Other Entities for Management Services The Company will rely upon the Co-Managers for the management of the business of the Company and the supervision of the operation of the Property. The Co-Managers will devote only so much of his time to the business of the Company as in their judgment is reasonably required. The Co-Managers may encounter conflicts of interest in allocating management time, services and functions between the Company and various other existing and future entities that own and operate real estate, as well as other business ventures, in which they are involved. (B) No Limit on Co-Managers’ Other Activities The Co-Managers, Acumen Capital Partners LLC, and their respective Affiliates may engage in other business ventures, real estate or otherwise, and neither the Company nor their Members shall be entitled, as of right, to participate in such other business ventures. The Co-Managers and their Affiliates intend to form other real estate ventures in the future, some of which may have the same investment objectives as the Company and may be in competition with the Company. Accordingly, there may be conflicts of interest on the part of the Co-Managers and his Affiliates between the Company and other entities and real estate investments or projects which they are involved.

22

(C) Tax Matters Partner Pursuant to the Operating Agreement for the Company, the Co-Managers will be the “tax matters partner” and as a result may make various determinations which would be binding on all of the Investors. It is possible that issues could arise on tax matters where the decision of the Co-Managers may have a different effect or consequence on the Co-Managers and the Investors. Because the impact of such determinations on the Co-Managers and their Affiliates may be substantially different in circumstances from the impact on the Investors, the Co-Managers may be subject to a conflict of interest in acting as the tax matters partner. (D) Determination of Reserves The determination of distributable net cash flow from operating income and net proceeds from a sale or refinancing is subject to, among other things, the discretion of the Co-Managers in establishing and maintaining reasonable reserves for the Company. Since the determination of such reserves affects the amount of cash available for distribution to Co-Managers and the Investors, the Co-Managers may have a conflict of interest in establishing the amount of such reserves. (E) Lack of Separate Representation Certain of the attorneys, involved in the acquisition and financing of the Property and preparation of this Private Placement Memorandum, counsel to Acumen Capital Partners LLC, an Affiliate of the Co-Managers. This could result in a conflict of interest if there is a dispute between the Co-Managers and the Investor and/or if decisions as to legal matters may have different consequences or effect on the Co-Managers and the Investors. (F) Disposition of the Property The Co-Managers are entitled to receive a certain portion of net proceeds from the sale of the Property as provided in the Operating Agreement for the Company. A conflict of interest could arise because it may be beneficial for the Co-Managers to sell the Property at a time when it may be in the best interest of the Investors to hold onto the Property or alternatively, because it may be beneficial for the Co-Managers to delay a sale of the Property, when a sale would be more advantageous to the Investors. In addition, in the alternative, the Co-Managing Members may have an interest in retaining, instead of selling, the Property in order to continue the distributions and any other fees payable to the Co-Managing Members and/or their Affiliates. Accordingly, the Co-Managing Member may be subject to various conflicts of interest with respect to the potential sale of the Property that may have different consequences or effect on the Co-Managing Members and the other Members. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Co-Managers shall annually provide to the Investors a financial statement for the Property which includes a balance sheet and related statement of income, expenses and changes in Investors' capital and changes in cash balances in accordance with the standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The Financial Statement will be sent to the Investors within one hundred twenty (120) days following the close of each fiscal year. Financial information contained in all reports to Investors, will be prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. The fiscal year will end on December 31 of each year.

23

Tax information will be provided to the Investors within approximately seventy-five (75) days following the close of each fiscal year.
