Good Morning,
Back in December, we received a company ownership change form for permit NCG200350. Your name was listed as the
facility contact. Before I can make ownership changes in our system',_I will need some sort of legal docunientatioh that
shows the ownership "change: Relevant page (s) of a contract deed or bill of sale. Once our office receives that
documentation then I can make the changes in our system.
Also, I noticed that the 2015,invoice is:past due. Please see attached invoice. The invoice shows old owner name.

Re: Waiver'of Conflict of Interest
Purchase and Sale, 4541 York Highway, Gastonia, NC ("Transaction")
Dear Sirs:
We have represented and continue to represent Seller with respect to the above matter. We have been
asked by both clients to simultaneously represent both clients with respect to certain aspects of the
"Transaction". The purpose of this letter is to discuss with each of you the actual and potential
consequences of such simultaneous representation, and to explain the circumstances under which we
would be willing to represent both parties simultaneously if, after full consideration of the consequences,
both clients wish us to do so.
Simultaneous representation of parties with adverse interests by attorneys in the same law firm involves
a number of departures from professional norms, and should not be undertaken by any such party
without careful consideration. In particular, we want you to be aware of the following.
1. Under applicable niles of professional conduct, a law firm owes each of its clients a duty of
loyalty, which would normally preclude any attorney within the firm from undertaking a representation
adverse to any client of the firm without the affected client's informed consent. Other rules generally
prohibit a firm from undertaking any representation involving an actual or potential conflict of interest
without the informed consent of all affected parties. Such a situation exists whenever a firm represents
two clients simultaneously in a situation in which their interests are actually or potentially adverse.
2. The conflict of interest, and the need for informed consent, exist no matter how cordial the
business relationship between the two parties currently is or is anticipated to be, and no matter how non-
controversial the Transaction is anticipated to be.
;. The conflict of interest, and the need for informed consent, exist even where different "client
teams" within the firm act on behalf of each client and an "ethical screen" is erected between the client

teams that prohibits the sharing of either client's confidences with the members of the other client's
team.
4. We do not recommend simultaneous representation of adverse parties, and have not
recommended this simultaneous representation to you. We have recommended, instead, that each party
seek separate representation. We also recommend that each of you seek the advice of independent
counsel of your own choice regarding this written consent. If, however, it is the wish of both clients that
we undertake the simultaneous representation of both parties with respect to the Transaction, we will
undertake to do so under the terms described herein.
5. It may not be possible for a single law firm to represent both parties to the Transaction in the
same aggressive manner as would two separate and independent law firms. By giving the consent
requested in this letter, you are, in effect, waiving that kind of zealous representation of your individual
and conflicting interests with respect to the Transaction. It is possible that each or both of you might be
advised by independent counsel to demand or offer different or more favorable terms and conditions
with respect to the Transaction than we can or will demand or offer.
6. Moreover, regardless of the terms upon which the matters between the two clients are concluded,
the fact that one law firm has been involved in the representation of both parties may give rise to a
perception on the part of shareholders, investors or other third parties that different terms might have
been arrived at had each of you had separate representation by an independent law firm.
7. If a dispute should arise in the future between the two of you concerning the Transaction or any
other aspect of your dealings with each other, we believe we would have to withdraw, or would be
disqualified, from representing either of you with regard to that dispute or any other relationship you
might then have with each other. You would then each have to retain separate counsel, resulting in
additional expense and inconvenience that you might not have incurred had you been separately
represented from the outset.
S. In connection with the Transaction, our representation of Buyer is limited to examining title to
the subject property, acquiring title insurance, preparing closing statement, and conducting the closing of
the real estate aspects of the Transaction for the Buyer. We have not been involved in negotiating the
Transaction or any other aspects of Buyer's representation in connection with same.
We will be pleased to answer any questions you may have concerning this representation or this
requested consent. If you do wish to consent, please sign below to indicate your consent.
ery truly yo drs,
David W. Smith, III
For the Firm
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND CONSENT
Despite any potential or actual conflict of interest which may exist now or in the future, we hereby
consent to the firm's simultaneous representation of both Seller and Buyer with respect to the
transaction as described above. We further agree that the firm may withdraw its representation of either

client or both clients without prejudice should it determine that continued representation might violate
applicable rules of professional conduct

I have carefully reviewed the HUD-1 Settlement Statement and to the best of my knowledge and belief, It is a true and
accurate statement of all receipts and disbursements made on my account or by me in this transaction. I further
certify that I have received a copy of the HUD-1 Settlement Statement.
Foss [erprises, Inc. Bruca's I n & fat, Inc
BY: i �_ BY: d
The Buyer and Seller this date have checked,
reviewed and approved the figures appearing on the
Disclosure/Settlement Statement (Statement of Actual
Costs), consisting of two (2) pages. Buyer
acknowledges receipt of the payment of the loan
proceeds in full, and Seller acknowledges payment in
full of the proceeds due Seller from the settlement.
The Buyer and Seller understand that the tax
prorations shown on the Settlement Statement are
based on information provided by the County Tax
Office. If current year tax bills are unavailable at the
time of closing, taxes are prorated using an estimate
of tax value determined by the tax bill from the prior
year or, if no such bill is available, the purchase price
for the property. 2015 Is a property tax revaluation
year in Gaston County so the estimate could vary
significantly from the actual taxes due on the property.
The Buyer and Seller agree to adjust the tax
prorations shown on the Settlement Statement when
the actual ad valorem tax bill is rendered. Seller
agrees to forward the next tax bill to Buyer
immediately upon receipt of the bill from the tax office.
Buyer understands that the next tax bill (even though
in the name of the Seller) is the responsibility of the
Buyer.
Seller understands that the payoff figure(s) (if any)
shown on the first page of the Settlement Statement
are figures supplied to the Settlement Agent by the
Seller's lender(s) and is /are subject to confirmation
upon tender of payment. If the payoff figure(s) are
inaccurate, Seller agrees to immediately pay any
shortage(s) that may exist.
As part of the consideration of this sale, the contract
between the parties is by reference incorporated
herein and made a part hereof, the terms and
conditions contained therein shall survive the closing
and shall not merge upon the delivery of the warranty
deed.
I have carefully reviewed the HUD-1 Settlement
Statement and to the best of my knowledge and belief,
it is a true and accurate statement of all receipts and
disbursements made on my account or by me in this
transaction. I further certify that I have received a
copy of the HUD-1 Settlement Statement.

We have investigated the status of the property tax valuation for the above captioned property. For 2014,
the taxable market value of the property was $581,051.00, but the property was taxed on a valuation of
$115,403.00 under North Carolina General Statute 105-275 (8) which provides an exemption for
property used for air cleaning or waste disposal or to abate, reduce, or prevent the pollution of air or
water. According to David Turbyfill at the Gaston County Tax Office, the tax value for 2015 is about
the same so we have used that value ($115,403.00) to prorate the 2015 taxes. Mr. Turbyfill advises that
there is no deferral or roll back taxes on the subject property. He also advises that to preserve the
exemption, the new owner should apply for the continuation of the exemption by filing a form with the
Gaston County Tax Office and with the North Carolina Department of Natural Resources within thirty
days of closing.
The new purchaser should act accordingly. We are taking no action with regard to the continuation of
the tax valuation exemption.

Good Morning,
Back in December, we received a company ownership change form for permit NCG200350. Your name was listed as the
facility contact. Before I can make ownership changes in our system; I will need some sort of legal documentation that
shows the ownership_ change., Relevant page (s) of a contract deed or bill of sale. Once our office receives that
documentation then I can make the changes in our system.
Also, I noticed that the 2015 invoice is past due. Please see attached invoice. The invoice shows old owner name.
Thank you for your assistance,

Re: Waiver'of Conflict of Interest
Purchase and Sale, 4541 York Highway, Gastonia, NC ("Transaction")
Dear Sirs:
We have represented and continue to represent Seller with respect to the above matter. We have been
asked by both clients to simultaneously represent both clients with respect to certain aspects of the
"Transaction". The purpose of this letter is to discuss with each of you the actual and potential
consequences of such simultaneous representation, and to explain the circumstances under which we
would be willing to represent both parties simultaneously if, after full consideration of the consequences,
both clients wish us to do so.
Simultaneous representation of parties with adverse interests by attorneys in the same law firm involves
a number of departures from professional norms, and should not be undertaken by any such party
without careful consideration. In particular, we want you to be aware of the following.
1. Under applicable rules of professional conduct, a law firm owes each of its clients a duty of
loyalty, which would normally preclude any attorney within the firm from undertaking a representation
adverse to any client of the firm without the affected client's informed consent. Other rules generally
prohibit a firm from undertaking any representation involving an actual or potential conflict of interest
without the informed consent of all affected parties. Such a situation exists whenever a first represents
two clients simultaneously in a situation in which their interests are actually or potentially adverse.
2. The conflict of interest, and the need for informed consent, exist no matter how cordial the
business relationship between the two parties currently is or is anticipated to be, and no matter how non-
controversial the Transaction is anticipated to be.
3. The conflict of interest, and the need for informed consent, exist even where different "client
teams" within the firm act on behalf of each client and an "ethical screen" is erected between the client

teams that prohibits the sharing of either client's confidences with the members of the other, client's
teem.
4. We do not recommend simultaneous representation of adverse parties, and have not
recommended this simultaneous representation to you. We have recommended, instead, that each party
seek separate representation. We also recommend that each of you seek the advice of independent
counsel of your own choice regarding this written consent. If, however, it is the wish of both clients that
we undertake the simultaneous representation of both parties with respect to the Transaction, we will
undertake to do so under the terms described herein.
5. It may not be possible for a single law firm to represent both parties to the Transaction in the
same aggressive manner as would two separate and independent law firms. By giving the consent
requested in this letter, you are, in effect, waiving that kind of zealous representation of your individual
and conflicting interests with respect to the Transaction. It is possible that each or both of you might be
advised by independent counsel to demand or offer different or more favorable terms and conditions
with respect to the Transaction than we can or will demand or offer.
6. Moreover, regardless of the terms upon which the matters between the two clients are concluded,
the fact that one law firm has been involved in the representation of both parties may give rise to a
perception on the part of shareholders, investors or other third parties that different terms might have
been arrived at had each of you had separate representation by an independent law firm.
7. If a dispute should arise in the future between the two of you concerning the Transaction or any
other aspect of your dealings with each other, we believe we would have to withdraw, or would be
disqualified, from representing either of you with regard to that dispute or any other relationship you
might then have with each other. You would then each have to retain separate counsel, resulting in
additional expense and inconvenience that you might not have incurred had you been separately
represented from the outset.
8. In connection with the Transaction, our representation of Buyer is limited to examining title to
the subject property, acquiring title insurance, preparing closing statement, and conducting the closing of
the real estate aspects of the Transaction for the Buyer. We have not been involved in negotiating the
Transaction or any other aspects of Buyer's representation in connection with same.
We will be pleased to answer any questions you may have concerning this representation or this
requested consent. If you do wish to consent, please sign below to indicate your consent.

David W. Smith, III
For the Firm
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND CONSENT
Despite any potential or actual conflict of interest which may exist now or in the future, we hereby
consent to the firm's simttitaneous representation of both Seller and Buyer with respect to the
transaction as described above. We further agree that the firm may withdraw its representation of either

client or both clients without prejudice should it determine that continued representation might violate
applicable rules of professional conduct

The Buyer and Seller this date have checked,
reviewed and approved the figures appearing on the
Disclosure/Settlement Statement (Statement of Actual
Costs), consisting of two (2) pages. Buyer
acknowledges receipt of the payment of the loan
proceeds in full, and Seller acknowledges payment In
full of the proceeds due Seller from the settlement.
The Buyer and Seller understand that the tax
prorations shown on the Settlement Statement are
based on information provided by the County Tax
Office. If current year lax bills are unavailable at the
time of closing, taxes are prorated using an estimate
of tax value determined by the tax bill from the prior
year or, if no such bill is available, the purchase price
for the property. 2015 is a property tax revaluation
year in Gaston County so the estimate could vary
significantly from the actual taxes due on the property.
The Buyer and Seller agree to adjust the tax
prorations shown on the Settlement Statement when
the actual ad valorem tax bill is rendered. Seller
agrees to forward the next tax bill to Buyer
immediately upon receipt of the bill from the tax office.
Buyer understands that the next tax bill (even though
in the name of the Seller) is the responsibility of the
Buyer.
Seller understands that the payoff figure(s) (if any)
shown on the first page of the Settlement Statement
are figures supplied to the Settlement Agent by the
Seller's lender(s) and is /are subject to confirmation
upon tender of payment. If the payoff figure(s) are
inaccurate, Seller agrees to immediately pay any
snortage(s) that may exist.
As part of the consideration of this sale, the contract
between the parties is by reference incorporated
herein and made a part hereof, the terms and
conditions contained therein shall survive the closing
and shall not merge upon the delivery of the warranty
deed.
I have carefully reviewed the HUD-1 Settlement
Statement and to the best of my knowledge and belief,
it is a true and accurate statement of all receipts and
disbursements made on my account or by me in this
transaction. I further certify that I have received a
copy of the HUD-1 Settlement Statement.

We have investigated the status of the property tax valuation for the above captioned property. For 2014,
the taxable market value of the property was $581,051.00, but the property was taxed on a valuation of
S 115,403.00 under North Carolina General Statute 105-275 (8) which provides an exemption for
property used for air cleaning or waste disposal or to abate, reduce, or prevent the pollution of air or
water. According to David Turbyfill at the Gaston County Tax Office, the tax value for 2015 is about
the same so we have used that value ($115,403.00) to prorate the 2015 taxes. Mr. Turbyfill advises that
there is no deferral or roll back taxes on the subject property. He also advises that to preserve the
exemption, the new owner should apply for the continuation of the exemption by filing a form with the
Gaston County Tax Office and with the North Carolina Department of Natural Resources within thirty
days of closing.
The new purchaser should act accordingly. We are taking no action with regard to the continuation of
the tax valuation exemption.

Dear Permittee:
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under general permit NCG200000 the Division of
Water Quality (DWQ) is forwarding herewith the reissued stormwater general permit. Due to resource constraints,
the Division has been unable to adequately consider appropriate modifications to the permit. Therefore, the permit
has been reissued without changes from the previous permit, so all conditions remain the same. The permit term for
the reissued permit is two years, expiring on September 30, 2008. The general permit may be modified and reissued
prior to its expiration. The permit is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-
215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, dated December 6, 1983.
The following information is included with your permit package:
A new Certificate of Coverage
A copy of General Stormwater Permit NCG200000
Your coverage under this general permit is not transferable except after notice to DWQ. The Division may require
modification or revocation and reissuance of the Certificate of Coverage. This permit does not affect the legal
requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by DENR or relieve the permittee from responsibility for
compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or
decree.
If you have any questions regarding this permit package please contact Catawba of the Central Office Stormwater

Dear Permittee:
Your facility is currently covered for stormwater discharge under General Permit NCG200000. This permit expires on
October 31, 2005. The Division staff is currently in the process of renewing this permit. When a draft version is
available for notice and public comment, it will be posted on our website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/. Once
the permit is reissued, your facility would be eligible for continued coverage under the reissued permit.
In order to assure your continued coverage under the general permit, you must apply to the Division of Water
Quality (DWQ) for renewal of your permit coverage. To make this renewal process easier, enclosed you will find a
Permit Coverage Renewal Application Form. The application must be completed and returned by August 19, 2005 in
order to assure continued coverage under the general permit. Letters confirming our receipt of the completed
application will not be sent.
Failure to request renewal within the time period specified may result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00.
Larger penalties may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request. Discharge of stormwater from your
facility without coverage under a valid stormwater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and
could result in assessments of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day.
Please note that "no exposure exclusion" is now available to all operators of industrial facilities in any of the
categories of "storm water discharges associated with industrial activity," (except construction activities). If you feel
your facility can certify a condition of "no exposure", i.e. the facility industrial materials and operations are not
exposed to stormwater, you can apply for the no exposure exclusion. For additional information contact the Central
Office Stormwater Staff member listed below or check the Stormwater Permitting Unit Web Site at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/.
If the subject stormwater discharge to waters of the state has been terminated, please complete the enclosed
Rescission Request Form. Mailing instructions can be found on the bottom of the form. You will be notified when
the rescission process has been completed.
If you have any questions regarding the permit renewal procedures please contact Aisha Lau of the Central Office
Stormwater Permitting Unit at [phone], ext. 578.

Dear Permittee:
The general stormwater permit for scrap metal recycling industries, NCG200000, was issued on
November 1, 2000. Since there has been a considerable time lag since your permit application was received on
July 25, 1995 this letter is being sent to ensure that the contact information that we have is correct.
Enclosed with this letter you should find a contact information update form with the information that the
Division has on your facility. Please check to see whether or not this information is correct. If any of the
information has changed from what our records show, please make the appropriate corrections in the empty
blanks to the right of the information and mail the corrected form to us by December 8, 2000. Sign and mail the
information form regardless of whether or not any changes need to be made.
Upon receipt of your information form you will be mailed a Certificate of Coverage with a new number of the
format NCG200***. If you were one of the few facilities that received coverage under the NCG030000 general
permit prior to the issuance of this permit your existing NCG030000 permit coverage will be rescinded
concurrent with the issuance of your new Certificate of Coverage.
Thank you for your continued cooperation in complying with the Federal NPDES stormwater permitting
program. If you have any questions regarding this request please contact Ms. Valery Stephens at
