It assumes all the obligations of the Borrower under the terms of the City of Elgin, Series 1979 Industrial Development Revenue Bond in an aggregate principal amount of $2 , 485, 000. 4 .

In reviewing the terms of the loan agreement, it appears that the borrower is required to maintain its existence. In this case it would mean that the borrower would be required to maintain its existence as a limited partnership. In the event that they do not maintain this existence, a default may exist. However, certain conditions may exist under which exceptions are permitted to this rule. I would direct your attention to attached Page 21 of the loan agreement documents regarding this bond issue. As you will note, under certain circumstances the borrower may, "with the written consent of the Bondholders and the Issuer, sell or otherwise transfer to another domestic entity all or substantially all of its assets as an entirety and thereafter dissolve, provided the surviving, resulting or transferee entity, as the case may be . . . " . The language goes on to require that the resulting entity meet certain criteria. This is basically the criteria covered in Mr. Ladecky' s correspondence of December 23, 1991 . However, nothing in Mr. Ladecky' s correspondence indicates that he has obtained the permission of the bondholders or the issuer, City of Elgin. Is there any correspondence which has been directed to your attention or any other city department, particularly the finance department, which addresses the condition that such permission be granted? Please contact me regarding this matter. Additionally, Gabriel Realty is also involved in a 1984 bond issue. In this bond issue, it is also required to exist in its state as an Illinois limited partnership. Have you received any correspondence from Gabriel Realty regarding this subsequent bond issue? I thank you in advance for your operation in this matter. l 2 BO nr Attachments cc: Michael R.
