CONSTRUCTION AND PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE BOARD OF APPEALS The Construction and Property Maintenance Code Board of Appeals meeting was held on July 17, 2024, at 3:30 p.m., with Mr. Neil presiding. The members present were Mr. Campana, Mr. Boggerty and Mr. Rocha. Mr. Martin was absent. The staff members present were Mr. Kopp and Ms. Brown. ADOPTION OF AGENDA Mr. Rocha moved for approval of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Boggerty, and unanimously carried. ELECTION OF CHAIR Mr. Neil opened the floor for nominations. Mr. Rocha nominated Mr. Boggerty to serve as Chair of the Construction and Property Maintenance Code Board of Appeals. The motion was seconded by Mr. Neil. There being no further nominations, Mr. Neil closed the floor for nominations. By unanimous consent, Mr. Boggerty was elected to serve as Chair of the Construction and Property Maintenance Code Board of Appeals. PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE VIOLATION: Chapter 3 - General Requirements, Section 302.3 – Sidewalks and Driveways ) - Appeal of Citation and Fines- 650 Bay Road (Dover Bay Court Plaza, LLC) Ms. Sierra Brown, Code Enforcement Officer, reviewed the case history for 650 Bay Road. Mr. John Paradee, Baird, Mandalas, Brockstedt & Federico, LLC, Attorney for Dover Bay Court Plaza, LLC, stated that Michael Turick from the Capano Management Company was present as well. Mr. Paradee emphasized that they did not view this meeting as an adversarial appeal, but rather as an opportunity to discuss their unique predicament with city representatives and explore potential solutions. He then presented and reviewed his packet with the board (Attachment #1). Responding to Mr. Rocha, Ms. Brown explained that most of the photos were taken in the area outlined in red, where the proposed new paving is planned. Some of the photos were from the new paving completed in June 2024, while the remaining photos were taken from the barricaded areas highlighted in yellow. Ms. Brown was unsure whether this milling was part of a specific project but believed it had been in that condition for about two (2) years. Responding to Ms. Brown, Mr. Turick stated it has been that way since he joined the company in September of 2023 but that he can find out more information about it. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Ms. Brown stated that the boxed-off yellow area had been previously milled, and she believes she has seen photos of it. The one on the right-hand side is within the red area, which is where the proposed new paving is planned. A few of the other photos are from the area between the blue section and the area that was paved in June 2022. The damage is spread throughout, but the worst of it is in the red area and the section that is not highlighted or boxed off.

CONSTRUCTION AND PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING OF JULY 17, 2024 PAGE 2 Responding to Mr. Rocha, Ms. Brown explained that, due to the site plan, she would need to confirm with the Planning Department regarding the specific requirements. She noted that the site plan and the certificate of occupancy (CO) dictate a required amount of parking, but she did not have those details readily available. She added that this falls more under zoning and related regulations. Ms. Brown mentioned that the area they paved in June 2024 has been brought to a very nice, finished condition. However, the red area, identified as the proposed barricaded section, as well as the area between the black and blue markings, remain non-compliant. Responding to Mr. Boggerty, Mr. Turick described the solution as using portable curbs, commonly referred to as curb stops. These are not like the large, concrete barricades typically seen on highways, which are about two and a half feet tall. Instead, these curb stops are smaller, about curb height, and are designed to prevent vehicles from driving into restricted areas. While a vehicle could technically drive over them, it would likely cause damage to the underside of the car. Mr. Turick suggested that these curb stops could be highlighted in orange or yellow to signal drivers not to enter the area, especially since it primarily face the designated section. Mr. Kopp noted that the property across the street, which was referenced earlier, is currently under permit and has an active site plan that must be adhered to. Once the permit process is finalized, the site plan will also be finalized, bringing the parking lot into compliance. The property is undergoing significant conversions, with multiple permits issued for the site. As a result, the Blue Hen Corporate Center is an active construction site. Part of the property is associated with the Bayhealth plan, which explains why a portion of the parking lot is blocked off. The final site plan approval will include repaving the parking lot. Responding to Mr. Boggerty, Mr. Kopp explained that Bayhealth owns all of the land in question across the street. Although they have subdivided and made several splits on the property, it is still part of their overall project. One of the key requirements for compliance is bringing the parking lot up to standard. Responding to Mr. Boggerty, Ms. Brown stated that in general, whenever they encounter deteriorated parking lots, they initiate a case and send a notice to the owner to seek compliance. She is aware that there are three (3) or four (4) other properties in this area with similar issues. This particular case originated from a citizen complaint. She included information on one of the complaints, but over the past three (3) months, she has received approximately 16 to 17 different emails or phone calls regarding similar concerns. Responding to Mr. Turick, Ms. Brown stated that since June, she has received three (3) additional complaints. Responding to Mr. Neil, Ms. Brown stated that a citation was issued on June 6th for non- compliance, with a fine of $100. This was before she received a phone call on June 13th from Jessica, the Director of Property Management at Capano. Prior to this call, she had no interaction with the property owners or management, including no phone calls or emails. They did sign for the certified mail regarding the citation, so someone did receive it. During her reinspection on June 6th, she observed that some work had been done, such as pothole repairs and attention to one storm drain. However, while some improvements were made, the entire property was not brought into compliance.

CONSTRUCTION AND PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING OF JULY 17, 2024 PAGE 3 Mr. Kopp clarified that as long as the building is standing, it remains subject to the site plan and the International Property Maintenance Code, regardless of whether it is vacant or occupied. The building must adhere to these standards, including those related to the parking lot. If the building were to be removed, the requirement for maintaining the parking lot would no longer apply. In summary, the building must meet these requirements as long as it remains in place, regardless of its occupancy status. Ms. Brown noted that in reference to barricading any part of the parking lot, such a decision would need to be reviewed by the Fire Marshal's office. This is important to ensure that emergency vehicles can still access the building, as there are strict regulations concerning emergency access. Ms. Brown explained that she understands that certain areas of parking lots must remain accessible for emergency vehicles, particularly in case of a fire. While this is beyond their scope, she strongly recommends that any decisions regarding parking lot access be reviewed by the Fire Marshal's office to ensure compliance with those requirements. Responding to Mr. Campana, Mr. Turick explained that they have leases in place that affect the property, and while these are economic factors they might potentially address, they do have other successful investments in Kent County, particularly on the residential side. Given the current low economic interest in the existing commercial setup, transitioning to an office-only use is unlikely to be profitable. Residential development would likely offer the best opportunity. Since joining the company, one of his first questions was why they were not considering such a change, given their successful residential development model. This topic is certainly under discussion with their principals, although they have not moved beyond conceptual plans yet. However, the long-term economic viability of the current setup is not sustainable, so conversion in the near term seems like a viable option. Responding to Mr. Campana, Mr. Turick stated that they would mill and repave the area, fill in all the holes, and then apply an overlay to complete the work. The intention is to ensure clear and maintained access for fire trucks around the front of the property and along the interior spine between Buffalo Wild Wings and the large parking field. The goal is to create a functional partial loop that allows for safe and efficient access. They also aim to provide sufficient parking in good condition for their current tenants. If they secure a tenant for the large vacant space between Dollar Tree and Club Fitness, and if the economics align, he assured them that their principals will address the barricaded area and complete the parking field improvements. Mr. Turick stated that as he mentioned earlier, they need to ensure that there is sufficient economic interest to make the investment financially viable. If they proceed along this path for another 12 to 24 months and still face high vacancy rates, it could prompt discussions about rezoning, demolition, and converting the site for other uses. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mr. Turick stated that the old Value City building is just under 60,000 square feet. Mr. Turick also noted that the old Save-a-lot is around 30,000 square feet and the vacancy of the property is roughly 130,000 square feet. Half of the area is located within the large center box, and the other half is positioned to the right. From their perspective, they have explored the potential for large, big-box stores over the years, even before his tenure on this property, but those efforts have not been successful. Most of the development in the area is to their left, as you can see. Their location is not ideal for a traditional commercial retail corridor; it is less attractive compared to being half a mile away.

CONSTRUCTION AND PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING OF JULY 17, 2024 PAGE 4 Responding to Mr. Neil, Mr. Turick stated that he is open to engaging third-party consultants to develop an updated site plan that could be more economically beneficial for the organization. He is willing to move forward with this and present a longer-term vision for the property. As mentioned, they have existing leases with tenants that need to be considered, as they have an economic interest in the asset. One initial idea is to remove the old Save-A-Lot space on the right side of the plan and retain the larger box, such as Club Fitness, on the left. This would allow for residential development in the remaining area while still generating income from the current tenants. However, further study is needed to ensure that the residential component has the necessary parking and amenities to be viable. Simply adding apartments without the proper infrastructure would not be effective. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Ms. Brown explained that the picture on the right shows an area in the drive lane where paving is proposed, which is located near the entrance. She noted that during her site visit with Jessica, they discussed this area and decided to defer it for now. They are primarily focused on addressing the day-to-day parking needs, which are of greater concern at the moment. Therefore, the referenced area is not currently under discussion. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mr. Paradee expressed his appreciation for Mr. Neil’s long-term solution suggestions and affirmed their openness to those ideas. However, Mr. Paradee emphasized that for today’s discussion, the focus should be on a specific short-term proposal to address the immediate issue. As Ms. Brown pointed out, their main concern is the traffic patterns leading into the center, including the routes taken by visitors and their parking locations. These areas need immediate attention. Additionally, Mr. Paradee clarified that their focus is not on the fine itself; they are prepared to pay it if necessary. He also noted their desire to avoid being a bad corporate citizen and accumulating repeated fines. Their goal is to resolve the issue promptly by presenting a detailed proposal for consideration. Mr. Paradee presented a specific short-term proposal aimed at addressing the immediate issue, with a suggestion for Ms. Brown to return for an inspection once they have implemented the changes. They can also work on developing an action plan that includes periodic reviews, perhaps every six (6) to 12 months. Mr. Paradee highlighted photographs of other major shopping centers in Dover, such as Gateway West, The Hamlet, Dover Downs, and the Blue Hen Mall. Mr. Paradee explained that they plan to fill and resurface the affected areas, but he does not anticipate this being a major issue. They will need to coordinate with Ms. Brown to ensure that her concerns about the area in front, to the north of Buffalo Wild Wings, are addressed. Mr. Paradee noted that the state is using that space temporarily for parking while the property to the north is being rehabilitated. Eventually, it will return to vacant space with no traffic or parking. The parking spaces for Buffalo Wild Wings, as outlined in their site plan, are sufficient for their needs. Therefore, paving that area may not be necessary. If there are concerns about access, they could consider installing a line of curbing along the boundary between the drive aisle and that space to prevent vehicles from entering. Mr. Paradee noted that currently, the area in question is seldom used, primarily because there is ample parking available for Buffalo Wild Wings. Their proposal includes barricading the section highlighted in yellow. This section is directly in front of the 60,000-square-foot vacant space, which would still provide sufficient parking for the fitness center and the Dollar Tree located on the corner. By implementing this plan, they will ensure that each tenant in the center has safe, clear access and parking, free from potholes. Additionally, this approach avoids the unnecessary

Paj 5

CONSTRUCTION AND PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING OF JULY 17, 2024 PAGE 5 expense of paving unused areas, costing between $550,000 and $590,000, and prevents the creation of excess impervious surfaces. Mr. Paradee stated that their proposal is detailed in the drawing provided. They plan to address any issues within the area between the blue and black sections. They request 60 days to complete this work, after which they will arrange for a reinspection by Ms. Brown to ensure the solution effectively addresses the immediate problem. There are two additional conditions to consider. The proposal is contingent upon review and approval by the Fire Marshal to ensure there are no fire safety issues. If a new tenant occupies the center or there is any change in occupancy, they will need to reassess the situation. For instance, if the currently vacant 60,000 square feet are leased, repaving may be necessary, as Michael mentioned. Mr. Paradee proposed implementing the plan as shown, allowing them 60 days to complete the work. Afterward, they will schedule a reinspection and ensure the Fire Marshal reviews and approves the changes. Additionally, they will reassess the situation if there are any changes in tenancy or occupancy. They suggest a follow- up review in six (6) to 12 months to provide a status update and address any further complaints. Their goal is to resolve the issue effectively and practically, avoiding unnecessary paving of unused areas. They are committed to finding a balanced solution and are prepared to address any questions or concerns. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mr. Paradee stated that the proposal was not articulated to Ms. Brown, and he takes full responsibility for this oversight. They developed this plan over the past week as they were discussing how to address the issue. They recognized that they were cited for a clear violation, and they will, of course, pay the fine. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mr. Kopp stated that the primary comment he would like to make is regarding the timeline for bringing everything into compliance with the code. They understand the challenges involved, but adherence to the code is mandatory. As code enforcement officers certified through the ICC, they cannot make exceptions or selectively enforce the code for specific properties. The code applies uniformly, and they cannot permit partial compliance or neglect of any part of the property. Just as they would not allow a homeowner to repair only half of their roof, they cannot permit only partial fixes for the parking lot. Therefore, they need a clear timeline for when the entire property will meet code requirements. Mr. Kopp noted that the space is unoccupied, and the current situation does not adhere to the expected standards. The code requires that the entire driveway and sidewalk must be maintained, specifically according to section 302.3. However, if a revised site plan indicates that a parking lot is no longer necessary, maintenance of the driveway and sidewalk can be discontinued, as they would no longer be required. Mr. Kopp explained that only the potholes need to be fixed to address the issue. It does not necessarily have to be completely repaved. If the potholes are fixed, that would be fine. Now, he knows there are some areas with milling, so those parts would need to be addressed if they have already been milled. Where there are just potholes, if they are filled in, the problem is solved, that eliminates the issue. It does not necessarily have to be completely repaved. Some spots are recoverable. They can fix it without full repaving but yes, unfortunately, there is a section that was already milled that would need to be restored. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Ms. Brown stated that if she were to conduct a reinspection today, she would be looking to ensure that all hazardous conditions are corrected and that the area is properly maintained. This means it should be in a finished condition. For instance, the entire parking lot does not necessarily need to be repaved, as long as all the potholes are filled in to eliminate any

Paj 6

CONSTRUCTION AND PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING OF JULY 17, 2024 PAGE 6 tripping hazards or risks for vehicles, those areas would then be in compliance. However, the already milled section would need to be repaved due to the uneven ground, which is a tripping hazard. So, the best approach would be to either fill all the potholes and repave that milled area or to level everything out as needed. Mr. Kopp explained that in regard to the barrier area, unfortunately, he thinks that the key difference to recognize there is that, unlike Dover Downs or Blue Hen, which were mentioned earlier, those areas are away from the general public's access or buildings. For instance, at Dover Downs, it is their back parking lot, and at Bayhealth, it is also further from the building. In this case, he is going to be cautious because he does not think the Fire Marshal would approve this due to the close proximity to the building. It is not just about having a fire lane for fire trucks; it is also a staging area for ambulances. A ladder truck might need to position itself here, and they might need to back up some. Responding to Mr. Kopp, Mr. Paradee requested getting input from the Fire Marshal. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Ms. Brown stated that in the barricaded area, there is no damage other than the fact that it has been previously milled down. So, that area is not as much about damage as it is about being a tripping hazard or not being brought to a finished condition. There are not any real potholes there; it is just that the surface has been milled down and is not level with the rest of the parking lot. Mr. Kopp recommended putting this matter on hold until input is received from the Fire Marshal and the Planning Department. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Ms. Brown stated that she did not include the striping. The only thing in that blue area would, that could possibly be brought up would be the fire lane wording, on the actual pavement. Ms. Brown would assume that it would be a part of the strike list but that would not come from her office anyway, if that were to be written up, that come from the Fire Marshal’s Office. Responding to Mr. Campana, Mr. Turick stated that he would rather clean that area a couple extra times a month. Mr. Kopp stated that any motion to defer this item to a later meeting would postpone further action by Code Enforcement regarding the parking lot; however, this would not prevent the appellant from making improvements in the interim. He recommends that the appellant proceed with the improvements as it demonstrates a good faith effort. Essentially, at Ms. Brown’s next inspection, they will avoid receiving a citation. Responding to Mr. Campana, Mr. Kopp stated that with the Planning Department, they are just going to see if it is possible to eliminate the partial space and what their process is moving forward. Mr. Kopp also mentioned that he believes 30 days is a reasonable timeframe. Mr. Kopp requested that the board task staff with scheduling the next Construction and Property Maintenance Code Board of Appeals meeting once they have received the necessary information from the Planning Department and the Fire Marshal.

Please reference Page 5 of this report for important information regarding the scope of research and analysis for this appraisal, including property identification, highest and best use analysis, and valuation methodology. The subject of this appraisal is known as Bay Court Plaza retail shopping center located at 650 South Bay Road, Dover, Delaware. The site is 17.70 acres, zoned C-2 and is improved with a rectangular one-story, retail shopping center containing 181,511 square feet. The building occupancy is 29.12% to five tenants. The building was built in 1978/2001 and is deemed to be in fair to average good condition. We certify that we have no present or contemplated future interest in the property beyond this estimate of value. The appraiser has performed no other services regarding the subject within the three years prior to our acceptance of this assignment. This appraisal is intended to comply with the reporting requirements of Standards Rule 2-2(b) of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). As a result, it presents brief presentation of the data, reasoning, and analyses that were used in the appraisal process to develop the opinion of value. Your attention is directed to the Standard Assumptions and Limiting Conditions section of this report (page 1). Acceptance of this report constitutes an agreement with these conditions and assumptions, as well as the Extraordinary Assumptions and Hypothetical Conditions found on page 1.

Mr. Michael Turick Capano Management May 2, 2024 Page 12 The opinions expressed in this report are based on estimates and forecasts that are subject to considerable risk and uncertainty due to the economy, inflation and supply chain issues which have all caused elevated construction costs and impacted feasibility. Events may occur that could cause the performance of the property to differ materially from our estimates, such as changes in construction costs, the economy, interest rates, changing effective market rents, return and yield expectations, as well as the decision calculus of investors, lenders, and consumers. u.s. economic growth is slowing due to the Fed's monetary policy try to rein in inflation. The federal funds rate is now the highest it has been since 2001 and the Fed could either hold rates higher for longer or begin rate cuts in 2024. As of yearend 2023 the Fed indicates that they are most likely done raising interest rates and that cuts are likely in 2024. However, persistent inflation above the central bank's two percent target and the strength and resiliency of the labor market are at odds with the speed and number of potential cuts that markets have priced in. Commercial real estate is heavily influenced by macroeconomic forces and capital flows as it is a credit intensive industry. The Fed's tightening monetary policy over the past two years has caused an economic slowdown and a credit crunch that has impacted the commercial real estate industry. The balancing act of managing inflation, lenders hesitancy to extend credit, and rising interest rates have weakened investor confidence. We are in a period of price discovery where buyers and sellers bid/ask spread are too far apart on pricing expectations. This has significantly reduced sales volume due to the higher cost of capital and eroded commercial real estate pricing. Retrospective Market Value Based on the appraisal described in the accompanying report, we have made the following value conclusions. The market value of the Leased Fee estate of the property, as of July 1,2023, is $3,150,000 Three Million One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars The market exposure time proceeding July 1, 2023 would have been six to 12 months. Our market value estimate above only considers the value of the tangible real estate. Distribution of this letter and accompanying report, which is to be distributed only in its entirety, and the conclusion(s) herein, is intended and restricted to use by Mr. Michael Turick, Capano Management, the Kent County Board of Assessment Review, and/or all approved representatives and advisors solely and is not be relied upon by, or shown to any other party (please see the "Standard Assumptions and Limiting Conditions" that are considered usual for this type assignment and have been included at the end of this report).

CONFIDENTIAL: Client/Attorney Privilege - 24025 Page /5 SCOPE OF WORK Report Type: This is a Restricted Appraisal Report as defined by Unifonn Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice under Standards Rule 2-2(b). This fonnat provides a summary or description of the appraisal process, subject and market data and valuation analyses Property Identification: The subject has been identified by the legal description and the assessors' parcel number. Inspection: A complete interior and exterior inspection of the subject property has been made, and photographs taken. Market Area & Analysis of A complete analysis of market conditions has been made. The appraiser maintains Market Conditions: and has access to comprehensive databases for this market area and has reviewed the market for sales and listings relevant to this analysis. Highest & Best Use Analysis: A complete as vacant and as improved highest and best use analysis for the subject has been made. Physically possible, legally pennissible and financially feasible uses were considered, and the maximally productive use was concluded. Valuation Analyses Cost Approach: This approach was not applied, as the age of the improvements makes the depreciation difficult to accurately measure. Sales Comparison Approach: This approach was applied, as there is adequate data to develop a value estimate and this approach reflects market behavior for this property type. Income Capitalization This approach was considered because the subject is an income producing Approach: property and there is adequate data to develop a value estimate with this approach. Our scope of work included an inspection of the subject property, a review of the underlying market conditions including market fundamentals, market sales and rents, and financial rates of return for real estate investments. Problem to be solved: in this case, our restricted appraisal services provided are to be used to render guidance related to client's intended use for asset management as it pertains to a real estate tax appeal with retrospective value as of July 1,2023. Intended use & users: The report is intended for use by Mr. Michael Turick, Capano Management, the Kent County Board of Assessment Review, and/or all approved representatives and advisors solely. We have considered the intended users when determining the level of detail to be provided in this report. Property rights evaluated: Leased Fee rights in the real estate. Exposure Time: Exposure time is defined as: "The estimated length of time the property interest being appraised would have been offered on the market prior to the hypothetical consummation of a sale at market value on the effective date of the appraisal; a retrospective opinion based on an analysis of past events assuming a competitive and open market." Thus, exposure time is a retrospective concept based on historical information. The consequence of the Federal Reserve attacking inflation has had an impact upon consumer spending and real estate pricing that was dependent upon a low interest rate environment. Cheap debt is a thing of the past for the foreseeable future. Rising interest rates have had a chilling effect on the real estate market. The broader capital markets have all but seized decreasing the availability of debt and has fostered lower transaction activity and placed market participants into an unclear time of price discovery.

CONFIDENTIAL: Client/Attorney Privilege - 24025 Page 16 Many investors find it difficult to make sound investment decisions in a volatile market. Given risk and uncertainty surrounding many deals, nobody knows when to deploy capital because they do not know where the bottom is yet. These factors are perpetuating market activity to remain slow and lean. However, investing during times of capital market volatility can lead to outsized returns in the long run. The PwC Q4 2023 Real Estate Investor Survey indicated marketing times of 1-15 months with an average of 7.2. months for National Strip Shopping Center Market properties. The concepts of confidence, stability, and liquidity are key to maintaining healthy real estate activity. With more market clarity real estate investors will become more optimistic in "fair value" in commercial real estate pricing. As we foresee no significant changes in market conditions in the near tenn, it is our opinion that a reasonable exposure period for the subject is six to 12 months if sold in the market given CUlTentmarket conditions. Lenders will tighten underwriting and raise their risk threshold. Effective Date of Value: is retrospective as of July 1,2023. Sales History: The subject has not sold or been offered for sale in the three years prior to the effective date of this appraisal. SUbject Property: is located at 650 South Bay Road, Dover, Delaware and identified as tax parcel #2-05- 07700-01-1600-000. The subject consists of 17.70 acres zoned SC-2 and C-4, that is improved with a one- story, 181,511 square foot shopping center with 702 parking spaces. The center has two pads (one leased to Buffalo Wild Wings) and 175,111 square feet of in-line space demised into 22 units. The center was built in 1978/2001 and was judged to be in fair to average condition with signs of deferred maintenance. The center is 29.1 percent occupied by five tenants and has not signed a new tenant since 2020. Local Retail Market Conditions: CoStar reports the Dover retail market had an overall vacancy rate of 6.1 percent in Q3 2023 and experiencing negative net absorption. The Blue Hen Corporate Center, located across the street, is a former 437,846 square foot enclosed mall on 45.38 acres that was converted into Class BIC office as Blue Hen Corporate Center in the mid-1990s. Many of its tenants moved four miles west to the Dover Mall. Most of Dover's retail development is located off Route 13 (DuPont Highway) to the west with three grocery stores (Safeway, Aldi, and Lidl) plus national retailers including Lowes, Sam's Club, Home Depot, Michaels, Big Lots, Burlington Coat, Best Buy, Target, etc. It is also where major retail demand generators are located such as Bally's Dover Downs Casino, Dover Motor Speedway and Delaware State University. DelDOT's 2022 traffic counts for Bay Road are 25,628 VPD and to the west along Route 13 the counts are much higher at 37,947 to 52,136 VPD. Definition of Market Value: The commonly-used definition of market value found in the federal regulations of the agencies that regulate fmancial institutions has been used in this assignment. Conditions of the Appraisal: The appraisal does not employ any extraordinary assumptions or hypothetical conditions. Real Estate Taxes: The subject is assessed by City of Dover and Kent County and the tax rate is $100 per assessed value. The resulting annual tax liability is summarized in the table below. Real Estate Assessment and Taxes Total City County School TaxID Land Improvements Assessment Rate Rate Rate Tax Rate Taxes 2-05-07700-01-1600-000 $477,900 $2,537,700 $3,015,600 $1.21 $0.30 $2.55 $4.06 $122,315 Notes: Assessment and taxation records were compiled fi'om the City of Dover and Kent County property records.

CONFIDENTIAL: Client/Attorney Privilege - 24025 Page 17 Highest & Best Use: considers the legally pennissible, physically possible, financially feasible, and maximally productive uses for the subject site both as vacant and as improved. Legally, the SC-2 and C-4 zoning district permits a variety of uses with the most probable being retail/commercial stores; hotels and motels; public libraries; banks; restaurants; hospitals and medical centers; and residential uses such as apartments. Given the subject zoning, some form of mixed-use development with multi-family and supporting retail uses would be permitted. Physically based upon topography, access, and the surrounding uses, the subject as vacant would most likely be developed with a mixed-use apartment/retail building(s). The site has access to all public utilities, about 1,000' of Bay Road frontage, and good roadside visibility. The subject site, given its size and configuration, is believed to capable of accommodating any of the potential uses allowed by zoning. In our opinion market fundamentals point to limited demand for speculative development at the current time due to a dislocation in the capital markets, elevated construction costs and current rent levels not supporting new construction. A newly developed mixed-use use on the site would not have a value commensurate with its costs, therefore development is not considered to be financially feasible. The most probable financially feasible uses would be to hold for future mixed-use development. Based upon our analysis of the current market conditions if the site was vacant there does not appear to be any reasonable probable use of the site that would generate a higher land value than development for some form of mixed-use apartment/retail use, when market conditions support construction. In our opinion, some form of mixed-use project developed to the maximally permitted density per zoning represents the maximally productive use of the property as vacant. Accordingly, it is our opinion that the highest and best use of the subject site if vacant would be to hold for future mixed-use development. The existing improvements are considered a legally permitted use. Physically, the existing improvements were built/renovated in 1978/2001 and were in fair to average condition with signs of defen'ed maintenance, Financially the property suffers from a vacancy rate below the market. The exiting improvements are only 29.12% leased and as leases expire cash flow will decline. This along with difficulty leasing, rising tenant fit-out costs and concession, and escalating maintenance and operating costs makes a continuation of the current use not financially feasible. The maximally productive use of the existing improvements is to continue to collect contract rents and reimbursements until leases expire and thus support the redevelopment of the property with a more productive use. The concluded highest and best use for the site as improved is for continued income collection until the leases expire then the redevelopment of the site with a mixed-use property. Approaches to Value: all three approaches to value were considered, namely the Cost; Sales Comparison; and Income Capitalization. Since the subject was built in 1978/2001 and suffered from a variety of accrued depreciation the Cost Approach was not developed due to the subjectivity associated with estimating depreciation. The Sales Comparison Approach was developed, because there is adequate data to develop this approach. The Income Capitalization Approach was also utilized due to the subject being an income producing property and there is adequate data to develop a value estimate for this report. SALES COMPARISON APPROACH This approach is based on the premise that a buyer would pay no more for a specific property than the cost of obtaining a property with the same quality, utility, and perceived benefits of ownership. It is based on the principles of supply and demand, balance, substitution, and externalities. Apex Realty Adlisory

Land Valuation The subject's land value as though vacant has been developed via the Sales Comparison Approach. This approach is based upon the premise that a buyer would pay no more for a specific property than the cost of obtaining a property with the same quality, utility, and perceived benefits of ownership. The following steps describe the applied process of the Sales Comparison Approach. • The market in which the subject property competes is investigated; comparable sales, contracts for sale and current offerings are reviewed. • The most pertinent data is further analyzed and the quality of the transaction is determined. • The most meaningful unit of value for the subject property is determined. • Each comparable sale is analyzed and where appropriate, adjusted to equate with the subject property. • The value indication of each comparable sale is analyzed and the data reconciled for a final indication of value via the Sales Comparison Approach.

CONFIDENTIAL: Client/Attorney Privilege - 24025 Page 110 Land Valuation Conclusion The adjusted values of the comparable properties range from $162,532 to $174,067 per acre, with an average of $167,484 per acre and median value of $165,853 per acre. Based upon the size, location, availability of public utilities and zoning of the subject property Sales 1 and 3 were given the most consideration as they required the least adjustment on a net basis. As a result, we have focused the approximate midpoint of the two sales in reconciling to a land unit rate value of $165,000 per acre, or $2,925,000, rounded, effective July 1,2023. Underlying Land Value Indicated Value per acres: $165,000 Subject Size: 17.70 acres Indicated Value: $2,920,500 Rounded: $2,925,000 Two Million Nine Hundred Twenty Five Thousand Dollars Improved Sale Comparables In addition to estimating the subject land value as if vacant via this approach we also researched three relevant retail shopping center sales in Delaware that were suffering from high vacancy rates and planned for demolition and redevelopment. These sales share a similar highest and best use with the subject property. Sale 1 is a retail center located in Seaford that sold in December 2022 for $20.1 0 per square foot of existing building area. The buyer is demolishing the buildings for a $60 million, 243,000 square foot redevelopment project which will include a mix of retail, institutional and recreational spaces. Pre-leased tenants include Delaware Technical Community College, Bright Bloom Montessori School, The Mill, a coworking office operator, and TidalHealth. They buyer of this property was supported by state and local funding for the demolition and some repurposing of existing buildings. Sale 2 is a former mall in Claymont off of the I-95 interchange with Naamans Road near the Pennsylvania state line. It suffered from deferred maintenance and low occupancy and it was acquired in June 2021 for demolition and redevelopment with a smaller 15,000 square retail center and a 525,000 square foot distribution warehouse. This property benefits from its access offI-95, proximity to Pennsylvania and the Philadelphia International Airport to the north. Sale 3 is the sale of an older building in poor condition that formerly was occupied by Brandywine Fonnan Mills. It was acquired for demolition and redevelopment with a climate controlled, self-storage facility. Most weight was given to Sales 1 and 2 given their larger size and scope of their planned redevelopment. However, each was considered superior so their $/SFB unit rates would be adjusted downward in comparison to the subject.

CONFIDENTIAL: Client/Attorney Privilege - 24025 Page III INCOME CAPITALIZATION APPROACH This approach to value is based on the present w0l1h of the future rights to income. This type of analysis considers the propelty from an investor's point of view, the basic premise being that the amount and quality of the income stream are the basis for value of the property. Direct Capitalization Analysis The steps involved in capitalizing the subject's net operating income are as follows: • Develop the subject's Potential Gross Income (PGI) through analysis of the subject's actual historic income and an analysis of competitive current market income rates. • Estimate and deduct vacancy and collection losses to develop the Effective Gross Income (EGI). • Develop and subtract operating expenses to derive the Net Operating Income (NOI). • Estimate an appropriate capitalization rate (Ra). • Divide the net operating income by the capitalization rate for an estimate of value through the income capitalization approach. Potential Gross Income (pGI) The subject contains a total of 181,511 square feet of rentable area. The subject is currently 29.12% occupied by five tenants. Leasing at the subject has been sluggish and arduous, as the last new lease signed at the subject property was Dollar Tree in May 2020. We would anticipate a developer would market the property to prospective tenants for about five to six months. Market Rent Comparables We have researched market lease comparables for retail space as summarized below. All the rents have been researched through numerous sources. Before adjustments, the comparables indicate an adjusted range of $11.41 to $16.00, with an average of $13.85 and a median of $14.00 per square foot.

CONFIDENTIAL: Client/Attorney Privilege - 24025 P age 112 The subject's in-place rents are below our estimated market rent. The subject after being exposed to the market for lease over 11 years only resulted in a lease to Dollar Tree in 2020. This shows the lack of market demand of this property given its location, size, configuration, and condition. After accounting for the likely need for tenant concessions, elevated tenant improvement costs, the cost to cure deferred maintenance and continued operation of the property as a retail center seems not financially feasible. Potential Gross Income Conclusion Based upon current space, we reconciled to an annualized Year 1 potential income of$497,438. Vacancy and Collection Loss To be prudent we have projected a frictional vacancy and collection loss of 2.0% of POI. Expense Reimbursements Under tenns of triple net leases for four of the tenants, the landlord receives stipulated rent and the tenant obligations to pay their pro rata share of the property's operating expenses including management. The quoted reimbursements net of real estate taxes ranges from $0.81 to $1.00 per square foot and have been included in our revenue calculation. Effective Gross Income (EGI) Deducting vacancy and collection loss from the POI results in a total EOI of $487,489. The table below shows the revenue over the next 11 years as the leases expire.

Historical expenses, net of real estate taxes, have ranged from $191,457 (2023) to $258,049 (2021). The decline in operating expanse has been due primarily with reduced CAM. Net Operating Income Our estimated total operating expenses, net of real estate taxes, is $1.05 per square foot. After deducting the operating expenses from the EOI, an annual Year 1 cash flow of $296,918 is projected for the subject. Discount Rate In arriving at a discount rate, we have considered yields on alternative investments as well as the location of the subject property, its age, and its characteristics. To arrive at a discount rate, we developed the weighted average cost of capital, reviewed real estate investor surveys and researched rates on alternative investments. The weighted average cost of capital below is a yield rate of 9.00 percent, rounded.

Alternative Investment Yield Rates Alternative investments indicate a basic safe rate for treasuries and corporate bond securities range from 3_86to 5.71 percent with a median of about 4.S percent, excluding the S-year treasury. The median rate is then adjusted upward by a lSObps premium for risk, 100bps for management burden and 100bps for illiquidity which results in a built-up yield rate of 8.0 percent.

We have concluded a discount rate of 8.S percent. Property taxes are based on the assessment of a property, but for tax assessment purposes the taxes are not known. Therefore, you need to "load" the cap rate for the real estate burden. The local Dover effective tax rate was estimated at one percent. Next, we "load" our estimated 8.S percent discount by the effective tax rate of one percent to arrive at our tax loaded discount rate of 9.S percent. The net present value of the in-place leases discounted at 9.S percent was $1,080,988 as summarized below.

CONFIDENTIAL: Client/Attorney Privilege - 24025 Page 115 FINAL RECONCILIATION The process of reconciliation involves the analysis of each approach to value. The quality of data applied, the significance of each approach (as it relates to market behavior), and defensibility of each approach are considered and weighed. Finally, each is considered separately and comparatively with each other. Value Indications Market Value "As Is" Effective Date of Value: July 1,2023 Sales Comparison Approach: $3,275,000 Income Capitalization Approach: $3,100,000 Value Conclusion Since the subject is only 29.12% leased to five tenants, thus we have placed most reliance upon the value estimate developed via the Income Capitalization Approach. This value was supported by our Sales Comparison Approach developed value estimate. Based on the data and analyses developed in this appraisal, we have reconciled to the following value conclusion(s) as of July 1,2023, subject to the Standard Assumptions and Limiting Conditions of this appraisal. Reconciled Value Retrospective Market Value Effective Date of Value July 1,2023 Real Property Interest Valued Leased Fee Value Conclusion $3,150,000 Our market value estimate above only considers the value of the tangible real estate and does not to consider or include any value(s) associated with any personal property, FF&E, or business value/goodwill, if any.

CONFIDENTIAL: Client/Attorney Privilege - 24025 Page 119 15. Ownership and management are assumed to be competent, and the subject property is assumed to be in responsible hands. The quality of property management can have a direct effect on a property's economic viability and value. The prospective financial analyses contained in the appraisal assume both responsible ownership and competent management unless noted otherwise. Any variance from this assumption could have a significant impact on the final value estimate(s). 16. Apex Realty Advisory assumes that there are no hidden or unapparent conditions of the property's soil, subsoil, or structure(s) which would render them more or less valuable. No responsibility is assumed for such conditions, or for engineering which might be required to discover such factors. Detailed soil studies were not made available to Apex Realty Advisory, so statements regarding soil qualities, if made in the report, are not conclusive but have been considered consistent with information available to us and provided by others. In addition, unless stated otherwise in the appraisal, the land and soil of the area under appraisement appears firm and solid, but the appraisal does not warrant this condition. 17. The appraisal report covering the subject property is limited to surface rights only, and does not include any inherent subsurface or mineral rights, unless so noted in this report. 18. The appraisal is made for valuation purposes only. It is not intended nor to be construed as an engineering report. Employees of Apex Realty Advisory are not qualified as structural or environmental engineers; therefore, Apex Realty Advisory' employees are not qualified to judge the structural or environmental integrity of the improvements, if any. Consequently, no warranty, representations, or liability are assumed for the structural soundness, quality, adequacy, or capacities of said improvements and utility services, including the construction materials, particularly the roof, foundations, and equipment, including the HVAC systems. Should there be any question concerning same, it is strongly recommended an engineering, construction, and/or environmental inspection be obtained. The value estimate(s) stated in this appraisal, unless noted otherwise, is predicated on the assumption all improvements, equipment, and building services, if any, are structurally sound and suffer no concealed or latent defects or inadequacies other than those noted in the appraisal. 19. The Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") became effective January 26, 1992. For tbis report no specific compliance survey and analysis of this property to determine whether or not it is in confOlmity with the various detailed requirements of the ADA was completed. It is possible a compliance survey of the property, together with a detailed analysis of the requirements of the ADA, could reveal the property is not in compliance with one or more of the requirements of the Act. If so, this fact could have a negative effect upon the value of the property. Since Apex Realty Advisory has no direct evidence relating to this issue, possible non-compliance with the requirements of ADA in estimating the value of the property was considered. 20. Any proposed construction or rehabilitation referred to in the appraisal report is assumed to be completed within a reasonable time and in a workmanlike manner according to or exceeding currently accepted standards of design and methods of construction. 21. Any areas or inaccessible portions of the property or improvements not inspected are assumed to be as reported or similar to the areas which were inspected. Apex Realty Advisory

CONFIDENTIAL: Client/Attorney Privilege - 24025 Page 120 22. No obvious evidence of insect infestation or damage, dry or wet rot or mold was found, unless specifically stated in the report. Since a thorough inspection by a competent inspector was not performed, unless otherwise noted, for the subject improvements, the subject property is assumed to be free of existing insect infestation, wet rot, dry rot, mold, and any structural damage which may have been caused by pre-existing infestation or rot or mold which was subsequently treated. 23. In the appraisal assignment, the existence of potentially hazardous materials used in the con- struction' maintenance, or servicing of the improvements, such as the presence of urea- formaldehyde foam insulation, asbestos, lead paint, toxic waste, underground tanks, radon, and/or any other prohibited material or chemical, which mayor may not be present on, in, or nearby the subject property, was, unless specifically indicated in the report, not observed by employees of Apex Realty Advisory, nor does Apex Realty Advisory have any knowledge of the existence of such materials on or in the property as employees of Apex Realty Advisory are not qualified to detect such substances. The existence of these potentially hazardous materials may have a significant effect on the value of the property. The client is urged to retain an expert in this field, if desired. The value conclusion(s) assumes the property is clean and free of any of these adverse conditions unless noted in this report or Apex Realty Advisory have been notified to the contrary in writing. 24. Unless otherwise stated, no effort has been made to determine the possible effect, if any, on the subject property of energy shortage, or future federal, state, or ecological matters, or interpretations thereof. 25. Apex Realty Advisory takes no responsibility for any events, conditions, or circumstances affecting the subject property or its value that occur subsequent to either the effective date of value cited in the appraisal or the date(s) of the field inspection, whichever occurs first. 26. The estimate(s) of value stated in this appraisal applies only to the effective date of value stated in the report. Value is affected by many related and unrelated economic conditions within a local, regional, national, and/or worldwide context, which might necessarily affect the prospective value of the subject property. Apex Realty Advisory assumes no liability for any unforeseen precipitous change in the economy, the subject property or, if applicable, the project, or the inability to find a buyer.

CONFIDENTIAL: Client/Attorney Privilege - 24025 Page 121 EXTRAORDINARY ASSUMPTIONS AND HYPOTHETICAL CONDITIONS When a value opinion is subject to an extraordinary assumption or hypothetical condition the appraiser must state that condition so that its effect on the value opinion or conclusion is clear. An extraordinary assumption is an assumption that is directly related to a specific assignment, which, if found to be false, could alter the appraiser's opinions or conclusions. Extraordinary assumptions presume as fact otherwise uncertain information about physical, legal, or economic characteristics of the subject property; or about conditions external to the property such as market conditions or trends; or about the integrity of data used in an analysis. An extraordinary assumption may be used in an assignment only if: • It is required to properly develop credible opinions and conclusions; • The appraiser has a reasonable basis for the extraordinary assumption; • Use of the extraordinary assumption results in a credible analysis; and • The appraiser complies with the disclosure requirements set forth in USPAP for extraordinary assumptions.

Macy's has announced they will be closing a total of 150 underperforming stores with 50 by the end of 2024 and the other 100 over the next few years. Filling the vacancy space will be impoliant as it has a CMBS loan that matures in 2026. Real estate is local and brokers report that retail investors flush with cash are actively and aggressively pursuing a variety of retail asset investments. Especially those assets that are well located, with credit tenants that are recession and e-commerce resistant, and have a good remaining lease term tend to gamer the most interest. Investors insist grocery-anchored retail centers are recession-resistant as people must eat even during economic downturns, however they are also pandemic-resistant. In addition, leading grocers and necessity-based retailers provide greater stability and resiliency than other types of retail. Conclusion The retail real estate market is continuing its path to recovery, having made a comeback that started in the second quarter of 2021, with well-located/occupied shopping centers powering much the growth. Combined with the plateauing of e-commerce retail sales in 2021 suggest a renewed balance between on- line and traditional brick & mortar sales. The local retail market trend was negative 2,576 square feet of net absorption in 2022 rebounding upward slightly to a positive absorption of 9,664 square feet through three quarters of 2023. The local retail vacancy rate has ranged from 5.4 percent in Q1 2022 to 7.3 percent in Q1 2023. The local housing market and household income levels bodes well to suppOli the retail market fundamentals going forward. Plus, with no new plmmed shopping center development on-going, the outlook for the local retail market seems steady baring any large retailer consolidations, closures or bankruptcies.
