Laura,
If we already have signatures from the correct people, then those people do not have to resign forms We just need to
have new forms submitted from anyone who will be signing that has not done so previously
I have not checked the signature authority for anyone involved The person reviewing the files will do that But, here
are the requirements for signatures The individuals need to be listed on the most recent annual report from the NC
Secretary of State, http //www secretary state nc us/corporations/ If it is a new corporation, then the NC SOS will only
have the Articles of Incorporation listed In that case, we will need some sort of other documentation that the person
signing holds the appropriate title (such as tax forms)
1 ) Manager Managed LLC Signed by a manager
2) Member Managed LLC Signed by a member
3) Inc Signed by the President or VP
4) Partnership Signed by a Partner
5) Signature Authority Letter In any of the situations above, the person with signature authority can assign
signature authority to an alternate person by submitting a signed letter to that effect

Laura,
SW8 130619 (Taco Bell Hampstead) drains offsite to be treated in a pond operated and permitted under SW8 070620
(Hampstead Town Center) Since this is just an ownership change for SW8 130619, it should not have an impact on SW7
070620 because the site's design is not changing
I will go ahead and accept all six permit transfer requests so that they can get logged into our system and assigned to a
reviewer That person will be in touch if they have further questions In the meantime, if you want to go ahead and
submit the revised transfer form for Fulton Station/SW8 130210 (to show it will transfer from RSM Foods LLC to Bell
Carolina LLC rather than from R&S Matthews Properties LLC to Bell Carolina LLC) that will speed up the process

Subject State Stormwater Permitting, Taco Bell Permits
Ms Warf,
We received six permit transfer requests for Taco Bells in Southern NC I have a few questions about the two listed
below We do not have permit numbers in this format Our permit numbers begin with "SW8" and are followed by six
additional numbers such as SW8 130204, SW8 120708, SW8 130302, and SW8 100917 (which has been modified and so
it is sometimes labeled as SW8 100917MOD) I looked in our database to see if we have other permit numbers that
could be for these facilities I have inserted the list of Taco Bells permitted through the Wilmington office below
(Please note that the pump station and sewer permits are listed by default by our computer system, but are not State
Stormwater permits )
1 Taco Bell Fulton Station, 2013022
a Correction to SW8 130210, Taco Bell Fulton Station?
If this is the intended permit, please note that there was a transfer in October 2013 transferring
ownership from R&S Matthews Properties, LLC to RSM Foods, LLC Documentation is attached But, the
transfer form shows that the permit application is to transfer from R&S Matthews Properties, LLC to Bell
Carolina, LLC If this Is the correct permit, we will need to get a revised transfer form from you showing
the corrected current ownership The $40 transfer fee (check 63003) will be used to process this
request since initial transfers are free, and this is the only permit submitted that will have a second
transfer (Second and subsequent transfers are $40 )
2 Taco Bell Jacksonville, SW9 111105 001
a Correction to SW8 130619, Taco Bell Hampstead?
b We do not have a permit for Jacksonville This permit is for a facility at the intersection of Hwy 17 and

A simple letter signed by the manager delegating permit signing authority to another individual will suffice We do not
have a form for it

Ms Johnson,
I represent the sellers in the Taco Bell sale transaction referenced below It was made known to us by Laura Warf (who
represents the buyers of the Taco Bells) that the individuals signing the permits must be named/listed in the most recent
annual report filed with the secretary of state for each company
Brett Matthews signed the permit for the Taco Bell at South Monkey Junction which is owned by R&S Matthews
Properties, LLC Brett Matthews is a member/manager of R&S Matthews Properties, but only his father, Ronnie B
Matthews is listed as a manager on the last annual report filed by the company
I understand that in such cases a signature authority letter can be submitted indicating that Brett Matthews has signing
authority Do you have a specific form for the signature authority or will a simple letter signed by Ronnie B Matthews
stating that Brett is a member/manager with signature authority suffice? I appreciate any guidance you can provide on
this matter
Thank you

Ms Warf,
We received six permit transfer requests for Taco Bells in Southern NC I have a few questions about the two listed
below We do not have permit numbers in this format Our permit numbers begin with "SW8" and are followed by six
additional numbers such as SW8 130204, SW8 120708, SW8 130302, and SW8 100917 (which has been modified and so
it is sometimes labeled as SW8 100917MOD) I looked in our database to see if we have other permit numbers that
could be for these facilities I have inserted the list of Taco Bells permitted through the Wilmington office below
(Please note that the pump station and sewer permits are listed by default by our computer system, but are not State
Stormwater permits )
1 Taco Bell Fulton Station, 2013022 (29330 — 4422 S 171" St, Wilmington)
a Correction to SW8 130210, Taco Bell Fulton Station?
Is this change correct — i e ? The permit we received said "2013022", but perhaps that is not the
permit number
If this is the intended permit, please note that there was a transfer in October 2013 transferring
ownership from R&S Matthews Properties, LLC to RSM Foods, LLC Documentation is attached But, the
transfer form shows that the permit application is to transfer from R&S Matthews Properties, LLC to Bell
Carolina, LLC If this is the correct permit, we will need to get a revised transfer form from you showing
the corrected current ownership The $40 transfer fee (check 63003) will be used to process this
request since initial transfers are free, and this is the only permit submitted that will have a second
transfer (Second and subsequent transfers are $40 )
Please advise as to whether there has been a change of ownership / name change If so, please
remit the $40 transfer fee We received a copy of an unsigned name change form, but not a
signed copy
Taco Bell Jacksonville, SW9 111105 001 (29460 —17200 US HWY 17, Hampstead)
a Correction to SW8 130619, Taco Bell Hampstead?
Is this the correct permit
b We do not have a permit for Jacksonville This permit is for a facility at the intersection of Hwy 17 and
Ravenswood Road I have attached this permit for your review

Laura,
If we already have signatures from the correct people, then those people do not have to resign forms We just need to
have new forms submitted from anyone who will be signing that has not done so previously
I have not checked the signature authority for anyone involved The person reviewing the files will do that But, here
are the requirements for signatures The individuals need to be listed on the most recent annual report from the NC
Secretary of State, http //www secretary state nc us/corporations/ If it is a new corporation, then the NC SoS will only
have the Articles of Incorporation listed In that case, we will need some sort of other documentation that the person
signing holds the appropriate title (such as tax forms)
1 ) Manager Managed LLC Signed by a manager
2 ) Member Managed LLC Signed by a member
3 ) Inc Signed by the President or VP
4 ) Partnership Signed by a Partner
5 ) Signature Authority Letter In any of the situations above, the person with signature authority can assign
signature authority to an alternate person by submitting a signed letter to that effect

SW8 130619 (Taco Bell Hampstead) drains offsite to be treated in a pond operated and permitted under SW8 070620
(Hampstead Town Center) Since this is just an ownership change for SW8 130619, it should not have an impact on SW7
070620 because the site's design is not changing
I will go ahead and accept all six permit transfer requests so that they can get logged into our system and assigned to a
reviewer That person will be in touch if they have further questions In the meantime, if you want to go ahead and
submit the revised transfer form for Fulton Station/SW8 130210 (to show it will transfer from RSM Foods LLC to Bell
Carolina LLC rather than from R&S Matthews Properties LLC to Bell Carolina LLC) that will speed up the process
