Painting & WaterproofIng: The exterior maintenance of a commercial property, such as a condominium building begins with cleaning and preparation. The removal of salts, dirt, mildew, and chalk or oxidation of existing paint film is critical to the Success of a properly installed coating system. As an approved applicator for most major manufacturers, our standard coating system includes a full prime of all exposed vertical stucco and masonry surfaces. The proper application (typically brush and roll) of a top line acrylic mildew resistant coating or a high-build elastomeric coating in accordance with the manufacturer's application I procedures is standard. Warranties including both labor and materials range from 5 to 7 years.

Due to the annual volume level at which we now function, the Company has been divided into a Painting!Waterproofing Division and a Restoration Division All of the changes incorporated into the organizational structure are specifically designed to allow better quality control, as our industry continues to evolve and increase in complexity of technical requirements. As a final overall quality control check, this re-structuring will allow Bob James the opportunity to visit each on-going job on a more regular basis. At present, the Corporation owns $360,000 worth of equipment, including motorized work platforms, high-reach machines, job-site trailers, demolition and sand-blasting equipment, dustless grinding equipment and all types of painting equipment.

I The renovation of the 18 unit apartment complex, with the repair of the concrete and structural work, being able to be completed "around the residents" with the minimum of disruption, was truly a miracle. I - The extensive renovation of Kelsey~s and its kitchen (the heart of our entire Resort) being completed while the Angler's Lounge and Pool operation located right upstairs continued to function, was a marvel in coordination and effort. - t Not one complaint did we receive from a guest concerning "dust", noise, or inconvenience. Not one time was construction delayed due to lack of communication or improper planning. Not one time did I doubt that work would be completed on time. j I look forward to consulting with you in the future as I am sure these capital improvements will not be the last for Faro Blanco. ~ Sincerely, ~q~ Me anie Tank G NERAL MANAGER t I I I I t I I I I t t I I - , , - I I I AUGUST 20, 1999 '. .... ., , R.L.JAMES, INC. 6301 ARC WAY FT.MYERS, FLORIDA 33912 MR.ROBERT L.

We recognize the extent of the planning and coordination required by the project and your project team's meeting of these challenges We would especially like to recognize the contributions of Bob Branscombe in dealing with the day to day concerns and questions of the members and keeping us "in business" during the work. As the Association's representative on this project I was pleased to have worked with Randy Blizmen from the start We are very pleased with the work and proud of the results. We believe our 25+ year old building now has a new lease on life and that it will serve us well into the future. In short we wish to thank R.L James for a job well done. The next time we have a similar project you can rest assured that R.L James will be at the top of our list of contractors :3?inc ' 1/1;;/ :-~-=--,,'a.o<~ fo~ ESsex House Association Roy Skinner, President I I iJtJ~/2. ~~; ~o BOATHOUSE BEACH RESORT I 7630 Estcro Blvd., Fort Myers lleach, f1.. 33931 (813) 463-8787 FAX: (813) 463-3299 (, BEACH RESORT , I October 18, 1994 , Bob James RL James Inc. 4531 DeLeon St. #201 Ft.

When I show the plctures of what we went through during the three weeks in which the project took place, everyone is even more appreciative of the finished product. The quartz finish on the balconies turned out beautiful and we are getting alot of positive feedback from our owners. I , , I'd like to thank you for your own visits to the ~roperty and on the crew you put together for us. Rick Pepln was the best foreman anyone could wish for. He kept his crew busy with a firm but friendly hand and it was obvious that they respected him. All work was done in a very pro- fessional manner and I continually felt that all aspects of the project were under control. John Dahin was always at hand to answer my many questions and to make sure supplies were delivered as promised. I also appreciate the warrantee work that was done at this time. I have always felt that this is one of tne strengths of your company, that you stand behind your products and workmanship. All in all, we are well pleased with both service and products and look forward to working with you on future projects. , I , , I Sincerely, ~ ~~F-~-kr, ~^-'4 Cindy Reuter-zingraf10~ Property Manager I I I I I I I I I , I \1 I I I - I - - I I I .~ Allen J.

Elek: I am writing you in regards to the project your are doing at Windward Bay Condominium, on Longboat Key. I am sure you know the historic background of this ill fated project and all the inconvenience, mess and lack of communication of the fanner project managers. This mess started June 7,1998 and it will continue into 1999. However, we are not going to bore you with "what .was" but to inform you on "what is." The two men on this project are the best in the business. We have observed the operations on five other buildings in our condo, so we recognize who knows the business and those who pretend to know the business. Your two men on this job "know their business, and short cuts are certainly not part of their act. These men came on the job the 9th of November and went right to work. They kept us informed, H what they were going to do, and when they would do it. " They did the job as promised, except when the weather intervened. They cleaned up the area each night before leaving the area. Chuck and Eric are professionals in their work habits and are gentlemen in their relationships with the unit owners who were being discomfIted by the distasteful mess we had to endure to get our building back in a livable condition. The undersigned are pleased to commend Chuck and Eric for their for their fine work on Bldg."B" of Windward Bay Condominium. ~\H~~1f{Rt~~// Allen l Gerber, D.D.S. .. / --, d ~1. , /t! /.

Painting & Waterproofing: The exterior maintenance of a commercial property, such as a condominium building begins with cleaning and preparation.

As an approved applicator for most major manufacturers, our standard coating system includes a full prime of all exposed vertical stucco and masonry surfaces. The proper application (typically brush and roll) of a top line acrylic mildew resistant coating or a high-build elastomeric coating in accordance with the manufacturer's application procedures is standard. Warranties including both labor and materials range from 5 to 7 years. Mike Graf, Awesome Photograph . . . . .

GENERAL CONTRACTORS CGC057958 WATERPROOFING RESTORATION . PAINTING CAPABILITY OVERVIEW RL. James, Inc., has been working primarily with South Florida Condominium Associations, Property Managers, Engineering firms, and Commercial Property Owners since 1988 as a full- service State Licensed Painting & Waterproofing contractor. Weare currently into our sixth year operating as a Concrete Restoration Contractor, under a Florida Certified General Contractor's License, # CGC057958. In 1993, we added a new level in mid-management supervisory and quality control, as well as integrating the addition of a professional Accountant to deal with all Corporate fiscal matters. Due to the annual volume level at which we now function, the Company has been divided into a PaintingIW aterproofing Division and a Restoration Division. All of the changes incorporated into the organizational structure are specifically designed to allow better quality control, as our industry continues to evolve and increase in complexity of technical requirements. As a final overall quality control check, this re-structuring will allow Bob James the opportunity to visit each on-going job on a more regular basis. At present, the Corporation owns $360,000 worth of equipment, including motorized work platforms, high-reach machines, job-site trailers, demolition and sand-blasting equipment, dustless grinding equipment and all types of painting equipment. With the support of various equipment leasing sources and qualified specialty sub-contractors, we are able to include all phases of work within our control, for scheduling, efficiency and quality control. Summarily, it continues to be our Corporate commitment to live up to the slogan which appears on our vehicles; that where you find RL. James Inc. working, you will find "Quality in Progress"!

Myers, FL 33907 Reference: Capital Renovations - Faro Blanco Dear Bob, I would like to take associates for making virtually "painless". this opportunity to thank you and your our recent construction at Faro Blanco As I think back over the entire process, including initial inspection, estimation, contract negotiation, permitting, actual construction and clean up, I cannot thank you enough for the professional manner in which you and your company conducted each and every facet of the job. The renovation of the 18 unit apartment complex, with the repair of the concrete and structural work, being able to be completed "around the residents" with the minimum of disruption, was truly a miracle. The extensive renovation of Kelsey~s and its kitchen (the heart of our entire Resort) being completed while the Angler~s Lounge and Pool operation located right upstairs continued to function, was a marvel in coordination and effort. Not one complaint did we receive from a guest concerning "dust", noise, or inconvenience. Not one time was construction delayed due to lack of communication or improper planning. Not one time did I doubt that work would be completed on time. I look forward to consulting with you in the future as I am sure these capital improvements will not be the last for Faro Blanco, Sincerely, ~~8~ Me anie Tank NERAL MANAGER AUGUST 20,1999 R.L.JAMES, INC. 6301 ARC WAY FT.MYERS, FLORIDA 33912 MR.ROBERT L.

We recognize the extent of the planning and coordination required by the project and your project team's meeting of these challenges. We would especially like to recognize the contributions of Bob Branscombe in dealing with the day to day concerns and questions of the members and keeping us "in business" during the work. As the Association's representative on this project I was pleased to have worked with Randy Blizmen from the start. We are very pleased with the work and proud of the results. We believe our 25+ year old building now has a new lease on life and that it will serve us well into the future. In short we wish to thank RL. James for a job well done. The next time we have a similar project you can rest assured that RL. James will be at the top of our list of contractors.

When I show the p~ctures of what we went through during the three weeks in which the project took place, everyone is even more appreciative of the finished product. The quartz finish on the balconies turned out beautiful and we are getting alot of positive feedback from our owners. I'd like to thank you for your own visits to the ~roperty and on the crew you put together for us. Rick Pep~n was the best foreman anyone could wish for. He kept his crew busy with a firm but friendly hand and it was obvious that they respected him. All work was done in a very pro- fessional manner and I continually felt that all aspects of the project were under control. John Dahin was always at hand to answer my many questions and to make sure supplies were delivered as promised. I also a~preciate the warrantee work that was done at this time. I have always felt that this is one of the strengths of your company, that you stand behind your products and workmanship. All in all, we are well pleased with both service and products and look forward to working with you on future projects. Sincerely, L\~~ ~~r~ Cindy Reuter-Zingraflr~ Property Manager Allen 1.

Elek: I am writing you in regards to the project your are doing at Windward Bay Condominium, on Longboat Key. I am sure you know the historic background of this ill fated project and aU the inconvenience, mess and lack of communication of the fonner project managers. This mess started June 7,1998 and it will continue into 1999. However, we are not going to bore you with "what was" but to inform you on "what is." The two men on this project are the best in the business. We have observed the operations on five other buildings in OUf condo, so we recognize who knows the business and those who pretend to know the business. Your two men on this job "know their business, and short cuts are certainly not part of their act. These men came on the job the 9th of November and went right to work. They kept us informed, H what they were going to do. and when they would do it. " They did the job as promised, except when the weather intervened. They cleaned up the area each night before leaving the area. Chuck and Eric are professionals in their work habits and are gentlemen in their relationships with the unit owners who were being discomfited by the distasteful mess we had to endure to get our building back in a livable condition. The undersigned are pleased to commend Chuck and Eric for their for their fine work on Bldg. fiB" of Windward Bay Condominium. c~~ Allen 1. Gerber, D.D.S.
