However, inclement weather caused a delay. The remainder of the subsurface exploration was completed on June 7, 2021 in conformance with our proposal RD23241, dated May 12, 2021. The notice to proceed was provided by Mr. Larry Lane of AdVenture Development, LLC via signed proposal. The purpose of the geotechnical exploration has been to characterize general subsurface conditions at specific boring locations and to gather data on which to base a geotechnical evaluation with respect to the project. The subsurface exploration for this project consisted of eleven (11) soil test borings and five (5) seasonal high water table borings. Soil test borings were drilled using a CM 550X ATV rig equipped with a manual hammer. Seasonal high water table borings were also performed for this study. The hand augers were performed by Mr. Mike Eaker of Southeastern Soil and Environmental Associates. The borings were advanced by hand using a 3-inch hand auger. Test boring sites were field located by a representative of our staff using a hand-held Garmin GPS. Boring site coordinates were superimposed on a Google Earth overlay. As such, the boring positions appearing on the attached Boring Location Plan should be considered approximate. Soil samples recovered during our site investigation were visually classified and specific samples were selected by the project engineer for laboratory analysis. The laboratory analyses consisted of: Ell Natural Moisture Content Atterberg Limits Particle Size Distribution of Soils (Gradation) Table 2: Scope of Laboratory Tests Results of the laboratory analyses are presented on the attached Boring Logs and in tabular form in the report Appendix. Descriptions of the laboratory tests that were performed for this study are also included in the Appendix. Information gathered from the exploration was evaluated to identify a suitable foundation type for the project. The information was also evaluated to help identify any special subgrade preparation procedures that may be required during the project earthworks phase. Results of the work, presented within this report, addresses: Page 14 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 ■ Summary of existing surface conditions ■ A description of the subsurface conditions encountered at the boring locations. ■ Site preparation considerations including material types to be expected during grading as well as recommendations regarding handling and treatment of unsuitable soils, if encountered. ■ Compaction requirements and recommended criteria to establish suitable surfaces for structural backfill. ■ Boring logs detailing the materials encountered with soil classifications, penetration values, and groundwater levels (if measured). ■ Presentation of laboratory test results. ■ Recommendations for foundation bearing capacity. ■ Summary of settlement estimates for the new foundations. ■ Recommendations for lateral earth pressures. ■ Recommendations for light and heavy-duty asphalt paving. ■ Recommendations for rigid concrete receiving slabs and truck pavement. ■ Plans and maps showing the location of the project and our onsite work. 3.0 GEOTECHNICAL SITE CHARACTERIZATION The following paragraphs are intended to provide a general characterization of the site from a geotechnical engineering perspective. It is neither the intention of this report to address every potential geotechnical matter that may arise, nor to provide every possible interpretation of conditions identified. The following condition descriptions, and subsequent geotechnical recommendations are based on the assumption significant changes in subsurface conditions do not occur between boreholes. However, anomalous conditions can occur due to variations in existing fill that may be present at the site, or due to natural variations in site geologic conditions. For this reason, it will be necessary to evaluate the site conditions with respect to those reported herein during site grading and foundation installation. Page 15 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 3.1 GEOLOGY Appearing on the USGS Geologic Map of North Carolina, the project site is situated in the North Carolina Coastal Plain region. Soil deposition in this environment is dynamic, with dune and slews formed by wind and water erosion, resulting in a variable profile over relatively short distances. The site is underlain by terrace deposits and upland sediments consisting of gravel, clayey sand, and sand, primarily caused by oceanic subsidence during the Cenozoic era (65 million years of age). Conditions encountered in borings drilled for this study generally correlate to the published geological information. 3.2 EXISTING SURFACE CONDITIONS At the time of our fieldwork, the site was described as generally flat, with elevations ranging from 171 to 174 feet (Proposed CGU Documents, Grading Plan-C). The site is currently undeveloped, and occupied by mature trees and significant understory. Access paths were cleared for this geotechnical work, composing approximately 30% of the site. Generally described as well -drained, stormwater is directed to a pond on the east side of the property, and a stormwater basin near the southern property boundary. 3.3 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS A generalized stratification summary has been prepared using data from the soil test borings and is presented in the table below. The stratification depicts the general soil conditions and stratum types encountered during our field investigation. 1 0.3'-1' Topsoil N/A 2 0.3'-13.5' Clayey Sand (SC) Loose to Dense 3 3.5'-9.2' Sandy Fat Clay (CH) & Sandy Lean Clay (CLS) Stiff to Hard 4 4.3'-20' I Poorly Graded Sand with Clay (SP-SC) Loose to Medium Dense Table 3: Stratification Summary Results of the laboratory tests are presented on the enclosed Boring Logs and in tabular form in the Appendix of this report. Descriptions of the laboratory tests that were performed are also included in the Appendix. Information gathered from the exploration was evaluated to determine a suitable foundation type and bearing capacity for the proposed structure, along with settlement Page 16 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 estimates. The information was also evaluated to help identify any special subgrade preparation procedures that might be required during the project earthworks phase. 3.3.1 TOPSOIL Topsoil depths observed within the soil borings generally range from 3 to 12 inches. An estimated 1 to 2 inches was lost from the observed topsoil thickness at some areas due to clearing for drill rig access. No testing has been performed to verify that these soils meet general characteristics of "topsoil" (humus and root content). Topsoil depths reported on the boring logs should only be considered an estimate as topsoil thickness may vary in unexplored portions of the site. 3.3.2 CLAYEY SAND (SC) In -situ soils identified as clayey sand (SC) were encountered in all the test borings, extending as deep as 13.5 feet below ground surface. In every boring, the clayey sand (SC) layer began just below the topsoil layer. Most of this (SC) soil is naturally occurring, with the exception of P-01 where it is described as existing fill extending to a depth of about 4.3 ft. This stratum exhibits SPT N-values ranging from 4 to 32 blows per foot, values in the range 11 to 15 considered representative. Additional characteristics for this stratum include fine to medium grained soil, brownish yellow and red colors, and a loose to dense consistency. Laboratory testing indicates a plasticity index of 36 and approximately 18 percent passing the #200 sieve. ASTM D2488 classifies this material at clayey sand (SC). 3.3.3 SANDY FAT CLAY (CH) OR SANDY LEAN CLAY (CL) Naturally occurring soils classified as sandy fat clay (CH) and sandy lean clay (CL) were observed in borings B-04, B-06 and P-03, extending from below the SC stratum to depths 4.8 to 9.2 feet below the surface. This stratum is generally described as brownish yellow and gray, fine to coarse grained with a stiff to hard consistency. SPT N-values in this stratum range from 13 to 31 blows per foot, with representative values from 13-17 blows per foot. Laboratory testing reveals a Plasticity Index of 31-34, and approximately 68-76 percent passing the #200 sieve for the (CH) layers. ASTM D2488 classifies the material as Sandy Fat Clay (CH). 3.3.4 POORLY GRADED SAND WITH CLAY (SP-SC) Fine to coarse grained soil classified as poorly graded sand with clay (SP-SC) was encountered in all borings extending from just below the SC or CH-CL strata to below the boring termination depths. This stratum contains loose to medium dense soils displaying SPT N-values ranging from 5 to 25 blows per foot. N-values in the ranges of 8 to 12 blows per foot are considered representative. Page 17 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 1.3.5 AUGER REFUSAL Auger refusal is the drilling depth at which the borehole can no longer be advanced using soil drilling procedures. Auger refusal can occur on hard soil, boulders, buried debris or bedrock. Coring is required to sample material below auger refusal. Auger refusal was not encountered in any of the borings for this project. 3.3.6 GROUNDWATER At the time of drilling, groundwater was observed in all building borings, with depths ranging from 4.0 to 10.0 feet below ground surface. No water was observed in any of the pavement borings during drilling. However, stabilized groundwater was present in both building and pavement borings, indicating a stabilized level ranging approximately 4.0 to 6.3 feet below the surface. A piezometer was installed in boring B-02 to assist in a more accurate reading. Groundwater data is summarized in the following table. :. B-01 (ft.) 7.0 Stabilized ..Elevation Drilling (ft.) kk (ft.) 166.0 Boring caved above groundwater level No data 167.5 4.4 169.1 163.0 4.2 168.8 B-02 6.0 B-03 10.0 B-04 4.0 168.0 Boring caved above ground water level No data B-05 10.0 163.5 5.3 168.2 B-06 4.0 168.5 4.0 168.5 P-01 Dry Dry 4.2 167.8 P-02 Dry Dry 6.3 167.7 P-03 Dry Dry 4.7 169.3 P-04 Dry Dry 4.3 168.7 P-05 Dry Dry 5.0 167.5 Table 4: Groundwater Depths 3.4 SEASONAL HIGH WATER TABLE TESTING Depths of the Seasonal High Water Table (SHWT) were measured by Mr. Mike Eaker, a North Carolina Licensed Soil Scientist with Southeastern Soil & Environmental Associates, Inc. Under contract to Building & Earth Sciences, he performed the field measurements and provided a letter summarizing his work. Mr. Eaker's report details the procedures used in his field evaluation, the results of his soil observations, the depth of SHWT, and the depth of observed water at each test location. The SHWT report is Page 18 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 included in the Appendix. Because the SHWT table was encountered at the ground surface in 3 of the 5 borings, and within the upper 34 inches in the remaining two locations, infiltration testing was not performed. 4.0 SITE DEVELOPMENT CONSIDERATIONS A grading plan has not been made available at the time of this reporting. Using estimated ground surface elevations at the boring sites (172.5 to 174.0 ft.), we estimated up to 4 ft. of cut and grade -raise fill placement will be required to achieve final grades. Based on our evaluation of the subsurface soil information, and the anticipated foundation loads, it appears that construction with a conventional shallow spread foundation system is appropriate to this project. Site development recommendations presented below are intended for development of the site to support construction with this type of foundation system. If an alternative type of foundation system is preferred, Building & Earth should be allowed to review the site development recommendations to verify that they are appropriate for the preferred foundation system. Primary geotechnical concerns affecting this project are: Significant clearing and grading to prepare building pads and parking areas Clearing and grubbing of established wooded areas Recommendations addressing the site conditions are presented in the following sections. 4.1 INITIAL SITE PREPARATION Initial site preparation should include clearing and grubbing to remove all trees, roots, topsoil, and otherwise deleterious materials from areas to receive grade -raise fill, pavements, buildings, and other permanent development components. Up to 12 inches of topsoil were observed in the borings, and removal of significantly sized mature tree roots should be expected. A geotechnical engineer should observe stripping and grubbing operations to confirm all unsuitable materials are removed from areas proposed for construction. Materials disturbed during clearing operations necessary, undercut to undisturbed materials and approved structural fill. should be stabilized in place or, if backfilled with properly compacted, Page 19 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 During site preparation activities, the contractor should identify borrow source materials that will be used as structural fill and provide samples to the testing laboratory so that conformance to the Structural Fill requirements, appearing below, below can be assessed and so that laboratory moisture density (Proctor) testing can be completed prior to commencement of earthworks operations. 4.2 SUBGRADE EVALUATION We recommend the project geotechnical engineer, or a qualified representative of the engineer evaluate the subgrade after the site is prepared. Some unsuitable or unstable areas may be present in unexplored areas of the site. All areas that will require fill or that will support structures should be carefully proofrolled with a heavy (40,000 # minimum), rubber -tired vehicle at the following times. ■ After an area has been stripped, and undercut if required, prior to the placement of any fill. ■ After grading an area to the finished subgrade elevation in a building or pavement area. ■ After areas have been exposed to any precipitation, and/or have been exposed for more than 48 hours. Some instability may exist during construction, depending on climatic and other factors immediately preceding and during construction. If any soft or otherwise unsuitable soils are identified during the proofrolling process, they must be undercut or stabilized prior to fill placement, pavement construction, or floor slab construction. All unsuitable material identified during the construction shall be removed and replaced in accordance with the Structural Fill section of this report. 4.3 MOISTURE SENSITIVE SOILS Moisture sensitive clayey sand soils (SC) were encountered at the surface across most of the site during the subsurface exploration. These soils will degrade if allowed to become saturated. Therefore, not allowing water to pond by maintaining positive drainage and temporary dewatering methods (if required) is important to help avoid degradation and softening of the soils. The contractor should anticipate some difficulty during the earthwork phase of this project if moisture levels are moderate to high during construction. Increased moisture levels will soften the subgrade and the soils may become unstable under the influence of construction traffic. Accordingly, construction during wet weather conditions should be Page 110 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 avoided, as this could result in soft and unstable soil conditions that would require ground modification, such as in place stabilization or undercutting. 4.4 UNDERCUTTING OF Low CONSISTENCY SOILS Low consistency soils (N<_6) were encountered in some of the borings within about 1.5 feet of the surface. Low consistency soils should be stabilized in place. This will require discing and drying in order to bring the surface soils to within 2 percent of the material's optimum moisture content prior to attempting compaction. If the soils cannot be dried from the surface, the low consistency soils should be undercut to a stable, suitable subgrade. The undercutting should extend laterally 5 feet outside building, fill pad, and parking lot footprints. It may be possible to stabilize relatively soft soils in in place. Typical stabilization methods vary widely and include modification of the soft soils with the addition of shot rock or No. 2 stone, as well as utilization of geogrids and graded aggregates. The design of a specific stabilization method is beyond the scope of this investigation but can be provided by Building & Earth as an additional service if desired. Any undercutting or stabilization performed in pavement areas should be conducted under the observation of the geotechnical engineer or his representative. The limited depth of this material likely indicates scarification and re -compaction will be the appropriate stabilization method. Some unsuitable or unstable areas may be present in unexplored areas of the site. Once the known undercut is complete, the areas planned for construction should be proofrolled in order to identify any additional soft soils requiring removal. Undercut soils should be replaced with structural fill. Clean, non -organic, non -saturated soils taken from the undercut area can be re -used as structural fill. The placement procedure, compaction and composition of the structural fill must meet the requirements of the Structural Fill section of this report. Page 111 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 4.5 STRUCTURAL FILL Recommendations for structural fill on this project follow: Soil USCS ype Classification property Requirements Placement Location Gravel SW, SP, SM or combinations Clay CL, SC, GC Clay CH Silt ML, MH Maximum 2" particle size LL<50, PI<25, yd>100 pcf LL>50, PI>25, yd>100 pcf All areas where material is con ine . All locations Not recommended for use N/A Use should be evaluated if this material type is encountered. On -site SC, CL, CH, As listed above As listed above soils SP-SC I Table 5: Structural Fill Requirements Notes: 1. LL indicates the soil Liquid Limit; PI indicates the soil Plasticity Index; yd indicates the maximum dry density as defined by the density standard outlined in the table below. 2. Laboratory testing of the soils proposed for fill must be performed to verify their conformance with the above recommendations. 3. Any fill to be placed at the site should be reviewed by the geotechnical engineer. Placement requirements for structural fill are as follows: - . .. Lift Thickness 8-inch loose, 6-inch compacted Density Minimum 98 percent std. Proctor (ASTM D-698) Moisture +/- 2 percent of optimum Density Testing 1 test per 5,000 s.f., minimum 2 tests per lift Frequency Table 6: Structural Fill Placement Requirements Page 112 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 4.6 EXCAVATION CONSIDERATIONS All excavations performed at the site should follow OSHA guidelines for temporary excavations. Excavated soils should be stockpiled according to OSHA regulations to limit the potential cave-in of soils. 4.6.1 GROUNDWATER Groundwater was encountered at depths of approximately 4 to 10 feet below the ground surface in test borings drilled for this study, with stabilized water depths at about 4 to 6 feet. Groundwater will likely be encountered at these depths during construction, particularly during undercutting operations. It should be noted that fluctuations in the water level could occur due to seasonal variations in rainfall. The contractor must be prepared to remove groundwater seepage from excavations if encountered during construction. Excavations extending below groundwater levels will require dewatering systems (such as well points, sump pumps or trench drains). The contractor should evaluate the most economical and practical dewatering method. It is important to note that structural fill soils that have a lower fines content than the underlying (naturally occurring) soils will be prone to developing a perched water condition. Care should be taken to prevent this. An evaluation of the proposed structural fill borrow sources should preclude the use of sandy soils with less than 15% fines, unless preventative measures are implemented to relieve perched water conditions. These measures could include sloping the subgrade soils to drain toward the stoprm drain ponds, installing permanent French drains, or capping the new fill with a low permeability material such as NCDOT Aggregate Base Course (ABC) stone. 4.7 UTILITY TRENCH BACKFILL All utility trenches should be backfilled and compacted in the manner specified above for structural fill. It may be necessary to reduce the lift thickness to 4 to 6 inches to achieve compaction using hand -operated equipment. 4.8 LANDSCAPING AND DRAINAGE CONSIDERATION The potential for soil moisture fluctuations within building areas and pavement subgrades should be reduced to lessen the potential of subgrade movement. Site grading should include positive drainage away from buildings and pavements. Excessive irrigation of landscaping poses a risk of saturating and softening soils below shallow footings and pavements, which could result in settlement of footings and premature failure of pavements. Page 113 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 4.9 WET WEATHER CONSTRUCTION Excessive movement of construction equipment across the site during wet weather may result in ruts, which will collect rainwater, prolonging the time required to dry the subgrade soils. During rainy periods, additional effort will be required to properly prepare the site and establish/maintain an acceptable subgrade. The difficulty will increase in areas where clay or silty soils are exposed at the subgrade elevation. Grading contractors typically postpone grading operations during wet weather to wait for conditions that are more favorable. Contractors can typically disk or aerate the upper soils to promote drying during intermittent periods of favorable weather. When deadlines restrict postponement of grading operations, additional measures such as undercutting and replacing saturated soils or stabilization can be utilized to facilitate placement of additional fill material. ;.0 FOUNDATION RECOMMENDATIONS Specific structural loading conditions were not provided for use in preparation of foundation support recommendations. For purposes of this reporting, maximum 3.0 klf wall and 100 kip column foundation loads are assumed. If these assumptions concerning structural loading are incorrect, our office should be contacted, such that our recommendations can be reviewed. 5.1 SHALLOW FOUNDATIONS Based on the conditions encountered during our field investigation and after our site preparation and grading recommendations are implemented, the proposed structure can be supported on conventional shallow foundations designed using an allowable 3,000 psf soil bearing capacity. Even though computed footing dimensions may be less, column footings should be at least 24 inches wide and strip footings should be at least 18 inches wide. These dimensions facilitate hand cleaning of footing subgrades disturbed by the excavation process and the placement of reinforcing steel. They also reduce the potential for localized punching shear failure. All exterior footings should bear at least 24 inches below the adjacent exterior grade. Total settlement of footings designed and constructed as recommended above should be 1 inch or less. The following items should be considered during the preparation of construction documents and foundation installation: Page 114 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 The geotechnical engineer of record should observe the exposed foundation bearing surfaces prior to concrete placement to verify that the conditions anticipated during the subsurface exploration are encountered. All bearing surfaces must be free of soft or loose soil prior to placing concrete. Concrete should be placed the same day the excavations are completed and bearing materials verified by the engineer. If the excavations are left open for an extended period, or if the bearing surfaces are disturbed after the initial observation, then the bearing surfaces should be reevaluated prior to concrete placement. Water should not be allowed to pond in foundation excavations prior to concrete placement or above the concrete after the foundation is completed. Wherever possible, the foundation concrete should be placed "neat", using the sides of the excavations as forms. Where this is not possible, the excavations created by forming the foundations must be backfilled with suitable structural fill and properly compacted. The building pad should be sloped to drain away from the building foundations. Roof drains should be routed away from the foundation soils. 6.0 FLOOR SLABS Site development recommendations presented in this report should be followed to provide for subgrade conditions suitable for support of grade supported slabs. Floor slabs will be supported on leveling stone placed directly over building pad subgrades. We recommend floor slabs for the proposed structure be supported on a minimum - inch layer of 1/2-inch up to 11/2-inch, free -draining, gap -graded gravel, such as AASHTO No. 57 stone, with no more than 5 percent passing the ASTM No. 200 sieve. The purpose of this layer is to help distribute concentrated loads and act as a capillary break for moisture migration through the subgrade soil. This gravel material should be consolidated in -place with vibratory equipment. With the gravel material, such as AASHTO No. 57 stone, a modulus of subgrade reaction of 140 pci is recommended for slab design. We recommend a minimum 10-mil thick vapor retarder meeting ASTM E 1745, Class C requirements be placed directly below the slab -on -grade floors. A higher quality vapor retarder (Class A or B) may be used if desired to further inhibit the migration of moisture through the slab -on -grade and should be evaluated based on the floor covering and Page 115 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 use. The vapor retarder should extend to the edge of the slab -on -grade floors and should be sealed at all seams and penetrations. The slab should be appropriately reinforced (if required) to support the proposed loads. 7.0 PAVEMENT CONSIDERATION Based on the materials encountered at the boring locations and after our recommendations for site preparation are implemented, pavements at the subject site may be designed based on a California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of five (5). Note that no CBR or plate load testing was completed to develop these recommendations. For pavement design purposes, we have assumed two levels of traffic shown on the table below, for commonly used pavement sections. Specific traffic information was not provided. If the pavement were a typical roadway, according to the "AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures, 1993", these pavement sections would be adequate for the following daily traffic volume: 5 5 Table 7: Assumed Traffic Volume The volumes shown above arejust one example of possible vehicle types and daily traffic that would result in the total equivalent 18-kip single -axle load (ESAL) shown. It has been our experience that parking lots experience a certain level of wear and stress greater than roadways designed for similar traffic volumes. Therefore, parking lots are typically designed using the AASHTO method and adjusted based on experience. If the owner would like Building & Earth to assess other likely traffic volumes, we will gladly review other options. Page 116 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 In addition, we have assumed the following design parameters: Design Design life (Years) Terminal Serviceability 20 2.0 Reliability 85% Initial Serviceability 4.2 Standard Deviation Standard Deviation 0.45(Flexible) 0.35(Rigid) Table 8: Assumed Design Parameters Note: All subgrade, base and pavement construction operations should meet minimum requirements of the North Carolina DOT Standard Specification for Road and Bridge Construction.

Alternative pavement sections were designed by establishing the structural numbers used for the AASHTO design system and substituting materials based upon structural equivalency as follows: Asphalt Concrete 0.44 Crushed Stone Base 0.14 Table 10: Structural Equivalent Coefficient The following flexible pavement sections are based on the design parameters presented above: Page 117 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 2.0 1 2.0 1 Surface Course -- 1 2.0 1 Binder Course 6.0 8.0 1 ABC Stone Base Table 11: Asphalt Pavement Recommendations 7.2 RIGID PAVEMENT The following rigid pavement sections are based on the design parameters presented above. We assume an effective modulus of subgrade reaction (k) of 150 pci. We have assumed concrete elastic modulus (Ec) of 3.6 X 106 psi, and a concrete modulus of rupture (S'c) of 650 psi. 5.0 1 6.0 1 Portland Cement Concrete, f'c=4000 psi 4.0 I 4.0 NCDOT ABC Stone Base Table 12: Rigid Pavement Recommendations The concrete should be protected against moisture loss, rapid temperature fluctuations, and construction traffic for several days after placement. All pavements should be sloped for positive drainage. We recommended that the pavements be reinforced to hold any cracks that might develop tightly together and restrain their growth. All pavement components must be placed and compacted in accordance with the applicable sections of the North Carolina DOT Standard Specification for Road and Bridge Construction. All subgrade, base and pavement construction operations should meet minimum requirements of the North Carolina DOT Standard Specification for Road and Bridge Construction. 8.0 SUBGRADE REHABILITATION The subgrade soils often become disturbed during the period between initial site grading and construction of surface improvements. The amount and depth of disturbance will vary with soil type, weather conditions, construction traffic, and drainage. Page 118 Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Evaluation - Eastfield Crossing Development Task Order 10: Block A -Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby) Selma, North Carolina Project No: RD210331, July 8, 2021 The engineer should evaluate the subgrade soil during final grading to verify that the subgrade is suitable to receive pavement and/or concrete slab base materials. The final evaluation may include proofrolling or density tests. Subgrade rehabilitation can become a point of controversy when different contractors are responsible for site grading and building construction. The construction documents should specifically state which contractor will be responsible for maintaining and rehabilitating the subgrade. Rehabilitation may include moisture conditioning and re - compacting soils. When deadlines or weather restrict grading operations, additional measures such as undercutting and replacing saturated soils or chemical stabilization can often be utilized. 9.0 CONSTRUCTION MONITORING Field verification of site conditions is an essential part of the services provided by the geotechnical consultant. To confirm our recommendations, it will be necessary for Building & Earth personnel to make periodic visits to the site during site grading. Typical construction monitoring services are listed below. Field observation during clearing and grubbing Fill material sampling and laboratory (index and Proctor) testing Fill placement ■ Foundation bearing surface preparation ■ All other special inspection requirements under the applicable Building Code 10.0 CLOSING AND LIMITATIONS This report was prepared for AdVenture Development, for specific application to the Block A — Retail (Except for Hobby Lobby located in the Eastfield Crossing development, Selma North Carolina.

Detailed methodologies employed in the investigation are presented in the following sections. DRILLING PROCEDURES — STANDARD PENETRATION TEST (ASTM D 7586) At each boring location, soil samples were obtained at standard sampling intervals with a split -spoon sampler. The borehole was first advanced to the sample depth by augering and the sampling tools were placed in the open hole. The sampler was then driven 18 inches into the ground with a 140-pound manual hammer free -falling 30 inches. The number of blows required to drive the sampler each 6-inch increment was recorded. The initial increment is considered the "seating" blows, where the sampler penetrates loose or disturbed soil in the bottom of the borehole. The blows required to penetrate the final two (2) increments are added together and are referred to as the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) N-value. The N-value, when properly evaluated, gives an indication of the soil's strength and ability to support structural loads. Many factors can affect the SPT N-value, so this result cannot be used exclusively to evaluate soil conditions. The SPT testing was performed using a drill rig equipped with a manual hammer. Manual hammers are dropped using a manually operated rope and cathead system. The N-values discussed or mentioned in this report and shown on the boring logs are recorded field values. Samples retrieved from the boring locations were labeled and stored in plastic bags at the jobsite before being transported to our laboratory for analysis. The project engineer prepared Boring Logs summarizing the subsurface conditions at the boring locations. Page I A-1 BORING LOG DESCRIPTION Building & Earth Sciences, Inc. used the gINT software program to prepare the attached boring logs. The gINT program provides the flexibility to custom design the boring logs to include the pertinent information from the subsurface exploration and results of our laboratory analysis. The soil and laboratory information included on our logs is summarized below: i.»ira� ►&j0%j j#j i� rr�•j►'i The depth below the ground surface and the corresponding elevation are shown in the first two columns. KETAINMRAINA The method used to collect the sample is shown. The typical sampling methods include Split Spoon Sampling, Shelby Tube Sampling, Grab Samples, and Rock Core. A key is provided at the bottom of the log showing the graphic symbol for each sample type. SAMPLE NUMBER Each sample collected is numbered sequentially. BLOWS PER INCREMENT, REC%, RQD% When Standard Split Spoon sampling is used, the blows required to drive the sampler each 6- inch increment are recorded and shown in column 5. When rock core is obtained the recovery ration (REC%) and Rock Quality Designation (RQD%) is recorded. W0116.�,rr_•l Column 6 is a graphic representation of four different soil parameters. Each of the parameters use the same graph, however, the values of the graph subdivisions vary with each parameter. Each parameter presented on column 6 is summarized below: N-value- The Standard Penetration Test N-value, obtained by adding the number of blows required to drive the sampler the final 12 inches, is recorded . The graph labels range from 0 to 50. — Unconfined Compressive Strength estimate from the Pocket Penetrometer test in tons per square foot (tsf). The graph labels range from 0 to 5 tsf. Atterberg Limits — The Atterberg Limits are plotted with the plastic limit to the left, and liquid limit to the right, connected by a horizontal line. The difference in the plastic and liquid limits is referred to as the Plasticity Index. The Atterberg Limits test results are also included in the Remarks column on the far right of the boring log. The Atterberg Limits graph labels range from 0 to 100%. • Moisture — The Natural Moisture Content of the soil sample as determined in our laboratory.

DESCRIPTION OF SOILS (VISUAL -MANUAL PROCEDURE) (ASTM D2488) The soil samples were visually examined by our engineer and soil descriptions were provided. Representative samples were then selected and tested in accordance with the aforementioned laboratory -testing program to determine soil classifications and engineering properties. This data was used to correlate our visual descriptions with the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). POCKET PENETROMETER Pocket Penetrometer tests were performed on cohesive soil samples. The pocket penetrometer provides a consistency classification, and an indication of the soils unconfined compressive strength (Qu). NATURAL MOISTURE CONTENT (ASTM D2276) Natural moisture contents (M%) were determined on selected samples. The natural moisture content is the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of the weight of water in a given amount of soil to the weight of solid particles. ATTERBERG LIMITS (ASTM D4378) The Atterberg Limits test was performed to evaluate the soil's plasticity characteristics. The soil Plasticity Index (PI) is representative of this characteristic and is bracketed by the Liquid Limit (LL) and the Plastic Limit (PL). The Liquid Limit is the moisture content at which the soil will flow as a heavy viscous fluid. The Plastic Limit is the moisture content at which the soil is between "plastic" and the semi -solid stage. The Plasticity Index (PI = ILL - PL) is a frequently used indicator for a soil's potential for volume change. Typically, a soil's potential for volume change increases with higher plasticity indices. MATERIAL FINER THAN NO. 200 SIEVE BY WASHING (ASTM D 7 740) Grain -size tests were performed to determine the partial soil particle size distribution. The amount of material finer than the openings on the No. 200 sieve (0.075 mm) was determined by washing soil over the No. 200 sieve. The results of wash #200 tests are presented on the boring logs included in this report and in the table of laboratory test results.

The purpose of the investigation was to determine Seasonal High - Water Table depths (SHWT) based on soil profiles. Soils at the proposed basin site are most similar to the Rains (S14WT-01, SHWT-02, SHWT-03, SHWT-05) and Goldsboro (SHWT-04) soil series (see attached boring logs). Five (5) soil borings were advanced to 4.0 or more feet below the soil surface. Seasonal High -Water Table (SHWT) as determined by evidence of colors of chroma 2 or less (and/or concentrations of high redox mottles) was encountered at depths ranging from 0 to 34 inches below the existing ground surface (see chart attached). It should be noted that the reported SHWT does not necessarily reflect the elevation of static groundwater at the time of testing (due to variations in groundwater recharge rates, weekly and/or annual rainfall, drought conditions or other factors). The data presented in this report are limited by a number of considerations. The primary consideration is that soil formations can be highly variable. The soils found on this site can be subject to inclusions of other soil types, perched water, artesian conditions and/or layers of undulating low permeability clay seams. These and other soil conditions can have an effect on the steady state of groundwater flow. To the extent possible, we have identified the soil types that will impact the flow of groundwater, and have provided a professional opinion as to the depth of SHWT.

A geotechnical-engineering study conducted for a civil engineer may not fulfill the needs of a constructor — a construction contractor — or even another civil engineer. Because each geotechnical- engineering study is unique, each geotechnical-engineering report is unique, prepared solely for the client. No one except you should rely on this geotechnical-engineering report without first conferring with the geotechnical engineer who prepared it. And no one — not even you — should apply this report for any purpose or project except the one originally contemplated. Read the Full Report Serious problems have occurred because those relying on a geotechnical-engineering report did not read it all. Do not rely on an executive summary. Do not read selected elements only. Geotechnical Engineers Base Each Report on a Unique Set of Project -Specific Factors Geotechnical engineers consider many unique, project -specific factors when establishing the scope of a study. Typical factors include: the client's goals, objectives, and risk -management preferences; the general nature of the structure involved, its size, and configuration; the location of the structure on the site; and other planned or existing site improvements, such as access roads, parking lots, and underground utilities. Unless the geotechnical engineer who conducted the study specifically indicates otherwise, do not rely on a geotechnical-engineering report that was: • not prepared for you; • not prepared for your project; • not prepared for the specific site explored; or • completed before important project changes were made. Typical changes that can erode the reliability of an existing geotechnical-engineering report include those that affect: • the function of the proposed structure, as when it's changed from a parking garage to an office building, or from a light - industrial plant to a refrigerated warehouse; • the elevation, configuration, location, orientation, or weight of the proposed structure; the composition of the design team; or project ownership. As a general rule, always inform your geotechnical engineer of project changes —even minor ones and request an assessment of their impact. Geotechnical engineers cannot accept responsibility or liability for problems that occur because their reports do not consider developments of which they were not informed. Subsurface Conditions Can Change A geotechnical-engineering report is based on conditions that existed at the time the geoteclhnical engineer performed the study. Do not rely on a geotechnical-engineering report whose adequacy may have been affected by: the passage of time; man-made events, such as construction on or adjacent to the site; or natural events, such as floods, droughts, earthquakes, or groundwater fluctuations. Contact the geotechnical engineer before applying this report to determine if it is still reliable. A minor amount of additional testing or analysis could prevent major problems. Most Geotechnical Findings Are Professional Opinions Site exploration identifies subsurface conditions only at those points where subsurface tests are conducted or samples are taken. Geotechnical engineers review field and laboratory data and then apply their professional judgment to render an opinion about subsurface conditions throughout the site. Actual subsurface conditions may differ sometimes significantly — from those indicated in your report. Retaining the geotechnical engineer who developed your report to provide geotechnical-construction observation is the most effective method of managing the risks associated with unanticipated conditions. A Report's Recommendations Are Not Final Do not overrely on the confirmation -dependent recommendations included in your report. Confirmation - dependent recommendations are not final, because geotechnical engineers develop them principally from judgment and opinion. Geotechnical engineers can finalize their recommendations only by observing actual subsurface conditions revealed during construction. The geotechnical engineer who developed your report cannot assume responsibility or liability for the report's confirmation -dependent recommendations if that engineer does notperform the geotechnical-construction observation required to confirm the recommendations' applicability. A Geotechnical-Engineering Report Is Subject to Misinterpretation Other design -team members' misinterpretation of geotechnical-engineering reports has resulted in costly Page I A-14 problems. Confront that risk by having your geotechnical engineer confer with appropriate members of the design team after submitting the report. Also retain your geotechnical engineer to review pertinent elements of the design team's plans and specifications. Constructors can also misinterpret a geotechnical-engineering report. Confront that risk by havingyour geotechnical engineer participate in prebid and preconstruction conferences, and by providing geotechnical construction observation. Do Not Redraw the Engineer's Logs Geotechnical engineers prepare final boring and testing logs based upon their interpretation of field logs and laboratoiy data. To prevent errors or omissions, the logs included in a geotechnical-engineering report should never be redrawn for inclusion in architectural or other design drawings, Only photographic or electronic reproduction is acceptable, but recognize that separating logs from the report can elevate risk. Give Constructors a Complete Report and Guidance Some owners and design professionals mistakenly believe they can make constructors liable for unanticipated subsurface conditions by limiting what they provide for bid preparation. To help prevent costly problems, give constructors the complete geotechnical-engineering report, but preface it with a clearly written letter of transmittal. In that letter, advise constructors that the report was not prepared for purposes of bid development and that the report's accuracy is limited; encourage them to confer with the geotechnical engineer who prepared the report (a modest fee may be required) and/ or to conduct additional study to obtain the specific types of information they need or prefer. A prebid conference can also be valuable. Be sure constructors have sufficient time to perform additional study. Only then might you be in a position to give constructors the best information available to you, while requiring them to at least share some of the financial responsibilities stemming from unanticipated conditions. Read Responsibility Provisions Closely Some clients, design professionals, and constructors fail to recognize that geotechnical engineering is far less exact than other engineering disciplines. This lack of understanding has created unrealistic expectations that have led to disappointments, claims, and disputes. To help reduce the risk of such outcomes, geotechnical engineers commonly include a variety of explanatory provisions in their reports. Sometimes labeled "limitations," many of these provisions indicate where geotechnical engineers' responsibilities begin and end, to help others recognize their own responsibilities and risks. Read these provisions closely. Ask questions. Your geotechnical engineer should respond fully and frankly. Environmental Concerns Are Not Covered The equipment, techniques, and personnel used to perform an environmental study differ significantly from those used to perform a geotechnical study. For that reason, a geotechnical- engineering report does not usually relate any environmental findings, conclusions, or recommendations; e.g., about the likelihood of encountering underground storage tanks or regulated contaminants. Unanticipated environmental problems have led to numerous project failures. If you have not yet obtained your own environmental information, ask your geotechnical consultant for risk -management guidance. Do not rely on an environmental report prepared for someone else. Obtain Professional Assistance To Deal with Mold Diverse strategies can be applied during building design, construction, operation, and maintenance to prevent significant amounts of mold from growing on indoor surfaces. To be effective, all such strategies should be devised for the express purpose of mold prevention, integrated into a comprehensive plan, and executed with diligent oversight by a professional mold -prevention consultant. Because just a small amount of water or moisture can lead to the development of severe mold infestations, many mold- prevention strategies focus on keeping building surfaces dry. While groundwater, water infiltration, and similar issues may have been addressed as part of the geotechnical- engineering study whose findings are conveyed in this report, the geotechnical engineer in charge of this project is not a mold prevention consultant; none of the services performed in connection with the geotechnical engineer's study were designed or conducted for the purpose of mold prevention. Proper implementation of the recommendations conveyed in this report will not of itself be sufficient to prevent mold fromgrowing in or on the structure involved.
