2. Projected revenue increases are based upon current operations. No allowances have been made for rate increases.

3. Carpark revenues for fiscal years 2001 to 2004 are based solely upon new income generated from improved identity, signage and wayfinding systems. Projected increases are based upon independent research and recommendations from the operators of Smart Park in Portland, Oregon.

4. Carpark revenues, expenses and net operating margins are based upon current operations and efficiencies realized through streamlined operations, introduction of technological change and automated parking systems.

5. Projected capital costs for new signage and wayfinding systems are defined by attached Schedule D.

6. Including Startup Budget and Capital Investment in new signage, the total investment in this program is $750,000. Conservatively, the accumulated “Projected Net Increase in Revenues” to Year 2004 is $1,316,500; an 75.5% Return on Investment or 18.9% per annum over 4 years.
