PK BRA-FAQs
1)If our 2009 tax assessed land value goes up will that effect the sales price we pay to purchase our lot?
The options for lessees to purchase from Patterson PK Land Partnership, Ltd. during the first year that Patterson PK Land Partnership, Ltd. owns the properties are all based upon 2008 certified land values. Lessee purchase options after the one year period are all based upon the then current tax assessed land values.
2)When can we buy our property? What is the timeline for the different options?
a. BRA-Patterson Sales Contract Patterson PK Land Partnership, Ltd. has until about July 27, 2009 (90 days after BRA Board accepted Patterson bid) to contract with the BRA for the purchase.
b.BRA Board ApprovalThe BRA Board must approve and ratify the sales contract.
c.Preferred LendersIn the next couple of months Patterson PK Land Partnership, Ltd. will host a meeting here in Arlingtonto get a "Preferred Lender" group going.

d.Equity ProspectusAfter the debt piece is established, a prospectus will be sent out which will include other 3rd parties and those lessees that indicated in their response to me in my June 14 and 16, 2008 surveys that they had an interest in being involved in the equity for the partnership.That group is closed.
