Continued from page 1...

Federal Incentives - a federal incentive is typically a tax-advantaged investment "product" like the "bonus depreciation expense allowance" or PAB tax-exempt bond financing. PABs are private activity bonds; a tax-exempt financing wherein an exception in the IRS Code is used to allow the project to utilize tax-exempt bond financing that is authorized to be used by specific issuers within a state. In some cases, a PAB represents a "can't miss" funding approach that will make the institutional investor feel good about jumping into the transaction before the construction phase commences.

The pre-construction phase cannot be considered to commence until the following condition precedents are met:

	Developer/Sponsor has site control (purchase and sale agreement, letter of intent or option contract executed and legally enforceable); and
	Developer/Sponsor has the required zoning and construction permitting available. If a re-zoning is required, then the project is not going to be able to attract capital investment from qualified institutional buyers ("QIBs") until it does; and
	Developer/Sponsor has demonstrated that market support exists for the project. This is usually demonstrated by an arm's-length market feasibility study being complete and available; and
	Developer/Sponsor has demonstrated the pro forma financial results of operating and non-operating events that can be realistically assumed to be attainable has been prepared and verified by third-party reports to the greatest extent possible.
