Why Would We Want to Own TC?

  • The Community will make future decisions
  • n TC amenities and costs.
  • Efficiencies from TC operations are retained

by the Community, not going to a for-profit company

  • The fees, which we must pay, driven by our

community decisions regarding TC amenities. We gain beneficial control of the future of Town Center

Community Organizations

Organizations of interest for Town Center Purchase

slide-78
SLIDE 78

Quick Refresher

  • Lennar owns the Town Center (TC)
  • Lennar is free to sell the TC at any time to anyone but…
  • All Owners must pay two TC Fees to TC owner
  • Operating Expense Fee
  • Membership (Base Amenity) Fee
  • This obligation tied to individual property owner’s Deed
  • Lennar pays their share of these fees for unbuilt homes
  • The PP Community Association (Master) has the
  • ption, per the TC Documents, to decide to purchase

the TC at buildout; No resident vote required

  • Buildout estimated in 2022
slide-79
SLIDE 79

Quick Refresher

  • The “Price” of TC at buildout is set by TC

Declaration formula

  • Pursuing an early (pre-buildout) purchase

benefits the community by capturing currently low interest rate and accelerating control of TC.

  • Use of Membership Fee to service borrowed

funds avoids need for a special assessment

The Residents' Alliance has taken the initiative to actively pursue early purchase of TC by the Master Association.

Valuation (Getting at the Price)

  • TC Declaration establishes a formula price at

Buildout

  • (# homes X Membership Fee ) / 8.5% Cap Rate
  • 8.5% is the specified capitalization rate, a common

measure for real estate investments to judge their profitability and return potential

  • Net Operating Income in this situation is being defined

as the Member Fees for all homes.

  • We started from here and adjusted for timing,

payout of unbuilt homes, completion of capital projects, various fees and costs for the purchase.

How Can We Pay?

  • In 2022 the purchase price could be about

$41M if TC Membership Fee increases at historical 3% rate.

  • In 2022, the TC Membership Fee will be

generating about $3.5M annually to finance the TC purchase.

  • The Model projects substantial savings to buy

early (before Buildout)

Lenders find the TC Membership Fee to be an attractive revenue stream as the basis of a loan.

Golf Course & The Club

  • The purchase of the Golf Course is NOT part of TC

purchase effort.

  • Transaction more complex than TC since no

defined buyer or defined funding source to underwrite the purchase

  • It is widely recognized that Golf Course is a strong

contributor to community property values

  • We believe Lennar may be interested in selling the

golf course to the owners

Golf members and interested community members are encouraged to take the initiative to establish a dedicated team of members to engage in this evaluation

Post Purchase Operations Questions

  • Questions/opinions were received regarding maintenance

and operations at Town Center and how things might be done differently.

  • Our current approach: retain ICON as the property manager
  • Minimizes delay and disruption during the transition period.
  • PP Community Association (Master) Board will manage the contract

for Town Center operations post purchase.

  • As previously stated, we have an objective of retaining the

excellent TC staff and this certainly includes Terri Lollio as the TC Manager.

  • Her leadership and engagement in the culture and performance of

the Town Center is recognized by many as key to its success now and in the future.

  • To facilitate communication of issues and sharing of

constructive input we anticipate an advisory group to the Master Association Board will be established.

We encourage active community participation.

  • Lennar is going to sell the TC sooner or later
  • We have defined a proactive approach to
