Greg File -. THE TOWER IGROUPJ Memorandum To: Owners—Developers —Clients General From: The Tower Group, Inc. Contractors Date: September 2, 2005 Construction Re: material Cost Escalation Notification Management Due to the natural disaster and devastation of Hurricane Katrina the US Construction Government and the Army Corps of Engineers have place a high demand on Building Materials. Obviously, there will be numerous other industries affected by this disaster in addition to the Construction Industry. Design-Build Already material suppliers from our region are diverting material shipments from manufacturers to the Gulf Coast Region. The suppliers are being paid a premium Planning for materials (theory of Supply&Demand hard at work). Although there is no blame or fault for this catastrophe other than Mother Nature SAe Development ! herself, we must caution you. As a developer/owner of real property it would be prudent to place your lenders, investors, partners and the potential end users of the product (tenants) on notice of price escalations. We have already had this Infrastructure i experience with the storms of 2004, we should be better prepared this year; no one likes surprises. Consulting Therefore, we suggest that reserves or contingency funds be established immediately in order to ensure the successful completion of projects without Estimating unnecessary delays. The materials that will be the most affected are: heavy equipment/machinery, cement products, brick, roofing, wood products, electrical and HVAC equipment. Scheduling We trust that most of you have been fortunate to bypass this disaster, but for those who have experienced the loss of property, businesses, family and friends Value Engineering our sincerest condolences are with you. Nevertheless, we will all experience the fallout of this crisis in one form or another....gas has gone through the roof. Post Construction Perhaps the only benefit of this is that we may all get a little more exercise.

As a means to reduce the Contract Price Increase, LRS is proposing an alternate system using lightweight insulating concrete, instead of the Contract-specified rigid board insulation. Although the roof deck insulating system is changed by this approach,the roofing membrane system and associated warranty are otherwise unchanged from that originally specified in the Contract,and the system maintains product approval for coastal zones. Change Order Request(COR)410-R1 proposes to furnish and install the alternate system for and increase in the Contract Value of $11,462.90, This COR is derived from the July 18, 2006 LRS Proposal(copy attached),plus the additional warranty,engineering and pull test costs described in their November 15,2005 memo(copy attached), less the original LRS proposal for the Contract-specified roofing and insulation system, including modifications for Elevator#1 CTG had previously submitted COR#10, dated November 17,2005,which proposed to furnish and install the LW IC System for a nel credit of$11.681.16. As described in the cover letter for the July 18, 2006 proposal,the demand for construction materials in the wake of Hurricane Wilma have contributed to extraordinary cost escalations and supply shortages for asphalt and resin products. These circumstances were unforeseeable and, in this case total 150/'o for concrete materails and 16% for the roofing materials. The baseline schedule showed roofing installation in January 2006. In our December 19,2005 request for Contract Tim_- Extension,TTG details the circumstances that caused roofing installation to be delayed beyond the baseline schedule date through no fault of the Contractor or Subcontractors. Therefore, these costs are compensible. Please process a change order in the amount of$1 1,462.90 for these changed conditions.

Exterior window installations have been on hold since TTG issued RFI#200,on February 17, 2006, to clarify the exterior cladding requirements for the Freeman Justice Center. As a result of these delays,our window subcontractor,Cherokee Glass&Mirror (CG&M),was forced to defer their window order because there was no bonded warehousing available for storage as required by the Contract. Once the exterior cladding and waterproofing matters were clarified,CG&M released their order but received notice of material escalation costs for the aluminum window frames and glazing. Since TTG and CO&M are not responsible for the circumstances of delay that caused these cost escalations, we respectfully request a Change Order for these extra costs.

PGT was bought out 3 years ago&made many changes. One change was to reduce the number of direct dealers they deliver to&establish a few local regional distributors.Another was to charge a premium for non standard window sizes.They now charge the cost of the closest larger window_30%-50%premium.PGT &the largest distr. in Palm Beach County negotiated a deal where the local distr. would not be charged a premium for custom size windows for a period of lyear.That is the reason we were able to purchase these windows from the local distr. at a reduced price. We have ordered the Single Hung windows in order to avoid the cost increase,which will go into effect for our distr.on 1/1/07. We plan on receiving the windows around 12/19/07&we will try to deliver them to the job site by the first week in January.

The reason for the change is k that the glazing manufacturer no longer has available bullet resistant glazing longer than 96". Therefore,the faxed windows with a length of 107-1/2"will have to be made with a zxaullion,in'thae middle. The transaction window with a length of 113-1/2"will have to have two mt llions. Shop drawings for these viindows are attached for your review and approval- Once I am ins receipt of these two approved drawings, I will then submit a full set of ch-awings for fabrication. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. As we discussed on Wednesday, October 4, I am requesting an increase of$16,802.00 for the windows and doors. The reason for this increase is due to higher costs of raw material since our original proposal in 2004. We understand this is an inconvenience and are offering you a 50% discount of$8,401.00 off of the$16,802.00 for a new total of $135,630.00. One of the several factors related to the price increase is the change of the slinn lite doors to half lite doors. Attached is a proforma invoice for your review. Again, I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
