The allegations contained in Paragraphs 1-11 above are re-alleged and incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. i 13. In or around 2003 and 2004 Kelley and Krider entered into agreements to combine two tracts of land in a development project in Rowan County, North Carolina. The purpose of the agreements was to develop "The Shops at Arlington Station." 14. The material terms of the agreements between Kelley and Krider included a combination of two tracts of land, the formulation of designs and plans, site work, financial analysis, engineering work, permit application and other work necessary to prepare the land for development. 15. Tract 1 (the "Kelley tract") consists of approximately 4.4 acres of property zoned commercial. This tract consists of an old Waffle House and an old Hotel. The Kelley tract is located just off of Interstate 85, between Innes Street, Arlington Road and a Walmart in Salisbury, North Carolina. As such, it is very desirable commercial land. 16. Tract 2 (the "Krider tract") consists of approximately 8.52 acres of undeveloped land between the Kelley tract and the Walmart. As such, it too is very desirable commercial land. Upon information and belief, the Krider tract was jointly owned by Krider and his wife, Diana S. Krider, Terri Krider Hill and her husband Thomas R. Hill and Brenda Krider Martin and her husband Frederick J. Martin, Jr. (the "Krider family"). 17. In furtherance of the agreements between Kelley and Krider, Kelley created Arlington Partners, on or around January 7, 2004 and subsequently executed contracts, began preliminary site work and otherwise set out to prepare the land for development. Since creation, Arlington Partners has expended or had expended on its behalf over $500,000 in anticipation of development. 18. On or around January 7, 2004, Arlington Partners, entered a contract to purchase the Krider tract from Krider and the Krider family. The closing date on this contract was extended by amendment on July 27, 2004, November 29, 2004 and March 31, 2005. 19. On or around January 7, 2004, Krider entered and executed an agreement granting him an option to transfer his interest in the Krider tract to Arlington Partners in exchange for an ownership interest in Arlington Partners, in lieu of cash. The agreement provided, inter alia, that Krider would be granted access to information and documents for the limited purpose of making 3 US2000 9477094.7 an informed decision to exercise his option. The agreement stated in pertinent part, "[Krider] agrees to keep confidential all information given to him by [Arlington Partners]". The agreement also obligated Krider to have members of the Krider family sign before gaining access to the confidential information. 20. Lying on the boundary between the Krider tract and the Kelley tract is an area designated as a wetland. The wetland consists of approximately .44 acres split between the two tracts. It was critical for the development to occur that a specific wetlands permit, certification I I and approval be obtained from relevant governmental authorities. i 21. In furtherance of the agreements between Kelley and Krider, Kelley, through Arlington Partners commissioned certain geological, environmental and engineering studies and work (the "Site Work") to be performed on both the Kelley tract and the Krider tract. This Site Work became the basis for an application necessary to obtain the required wetlands permit, certification and approval. This application was submitted in the name of Arlington Partners. 22. In order to address the wetlands portion of the tracts, Kelley and Arlington Partners undertook the preparation of justifications and wetlands assessments, developed a storm-water management plan, prepared certain maps, obtained a habitat analysis, obtained soil surveys, prepared survey plats, applied for a permit from the US Army Corps of Engineers ("USACOE") and applied for certification from the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality ("DWQ") (collectively, the "Wetlands Work"). 23. This Site Work and Wetlands Work was paid for by Kelley and Arlington Partners and cost in excess of $250,000. This Site Work and Wetlands Work were submitted to the USACOE and DWQ as necessary parts of the various applications. 24. On or around September 8, 2004, USACOE issued to Arlington Partners a Section 404 permit to fill portions of the wetlands in its construction of The Shops at Arlington Station. The Section 404 permit required Arlington Partners to make payment to the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program ("NCEEP") to do wetlands restoration as part of the development project. Work on The Shops at Arlington Station could not proceed until payment of the fees to NCEEP. 4 US2000 9437094.3 25. The Section 404 permit was submitted to DWQ along with an application for a necessary Section 401 Water Quality Certification, which was subsequently granted to Arlington Partners. 26. On or around Thanksgiving of 2004, Kelley, Krider and the Krider family met to discuss the valuation that would be placed on the Krider tract in Arlington Partners. Notwithstanding his own knowledge and experience with the financial numbers, Krider insisted on unreasonable and unjustifiable sums of money for the Krider tract. Negotiations continued. 27. On or around April 13, 2005, Arlington Partners' contract to purchase the Krider tract expired without an agreement on a closing price. On or about the same date, Krider's option to join Arlington Partners expired without Krider joining Arlington Partners. 28. On or around April 15, 2005, Krider assigned all of his interests in the Kelley tract to Arlington Partners and otherwise completely renounced the contract to purchase the Krider tract and the option to join Arlington Partners. 29. Subsequently, all financial consideration Krider had contributed to the joint project was refunded to Krider by Arlington Partners or other entities affiliated with Kelley. Krider did not, however, return his copies of the documents, including the Site Work and Wetlands Work, or his copies of the permit and certification. In or around October of 2005, Krider received important notices related to Arlington Partners' wetlands permits at his address. He did not forward them to Arlington Partners. 30. During or between May and June, 2006, Krider sold the Krider tract to Spectra Group and retained a "spite" strip, however, these facts were concealed from public knowledge until the deed was filed June 28, 2006. 31. On or around May 19, 2006, Spectra Group attempted to pay NCEEP the $24,552.00 fee for the compensatory mitigation required by the USACE permit, even though the permits were issued to Arlington Partners. On information and belief, Spectra through Krider claimed that it was acting on behalf of Arlington Partners even though it had been given no permission to do so. On or around May 25, 2006, Krider received a receipt for payment in the name of Arlington Partners. Kelley and Arlington Partners, however, did not become aware of these efforts until several months later and Spectra's payment was refunded. 32. Without knowledge of the foregoing, in or around June, 2006, Kelley and Arlington Partners had discussions with Spectra Group about partnering to develop The Shops at 5 U52D00 9417091.3 Arlington Station. Among the terms discussed were Kelley and Arlington Partners' provision of the permits and engineering work and Spectra Group's provision of the Krider tract and certain extra soil located on the Krider tract. No agreement was reached. 33. On or around July 13, 2006, the Spectra Group and Kelley met in the presence of Salisbury City staff, during which meeting the Spectra Group finally rejected Kelley's offers to jointly develop the two tracts. During the meeting the Spectra Group indicated it would hire or use its own engineers and staff to conduct site work and wetlands work to obtain separate permits and certifications. Krider attempted to attend the meeting but was sent away by the Spectra Group. 34. The next day, the Spectra Group, without authorization, used Arlington Partner's Site Work and Wetlands Work, made minor modifications such as crossing out reference to the Kelley tract, and submitted applications to USACOE and DWQ. These applications attached copies of Arlington Partners' permits and certifications without authorization from Arlington Partners. On the basis of these submissions Spectra Group obtained permits, certifications and the NCEEP approval on an expedited basis, at a very small fraction of the actual cost. On or around July 25, 2006, NCEEP accepted Spectra Group's fee, clearing the way for the Spectra Group to begin development on the Krider tract. V. Claims for Relief Breach of Contract By Krider 35. The allegations contained in Paragraphs 1-34 above are re-alleged and incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. 36. All conditions precedent to this action have occurred or been waived. 37. Krider and Arlington Partners entered a contract granting Krider access to certain documents and information for the limited purpose of allowing him to make an informed decision about his exercise of an option. 38. According to the terms of the agreement, Krider was obligated to keep confidential all information and documents provided by Arlington Partners. Krider was further obligated to have family members bound to the same agreement before sharing information or documents with them. 6 US2000 9477094.7 39. Krider breached the agreement by providing Arlington Partners' documents and information to Spectra Group. Upon information and belief, Krider shared documents and information with family members without requiring them to enter the agreement. 40. As the direct and proximate result of Krider's breaches of contract, Arlington Partners has been damaged in excess of $10,000, plus interest as allowed by law. (Unjust Enrichment Against Krider and Krider Family) 41. The allegations contained in Paragraphs 1-40 above are re-alleged and incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. 42. Krider and the Krider family have used the Site Work, Wetlands Work and otherwise gained the benefit of Kelley and Arlington Partners' work after Krider renounced the Arlington Partners contract and option and without paying any consideration for the work. Krider and the Krider family have benefited by enhanced value to their property, in that the land had greater value to Spectra Group if Krider and the Krider family also had Kelley and Arlington Partners' work. 43. In order to prevent the unjust enrichment of Krider and the Krider family, the Plaintiffs are entitled to recover of Krider and the Krider family, jointly and severally, a sum in excess of $10,000, plus interest as allowed by law. QUniust Enrichment Against Spectra Group) 44. The allegations contained in Paragraphs 1-43 above are re-alleged and incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. 45. The Spectra Group has used the Site Work, Wetlands Work and otherwise gained the benefit of Kelley and Arlington Partners' work without authority and without paying any consideration for it. As a consequence, Spectra has gained the benefit of the more than eighteen months' worth of time to commission this work, apply for permits and certifications, negotiate with governmental regulators and the costs associated therewith, as well as the benefits of a development-ready tract of land. 46. In order to prevent the unjust enrichment.of Spectra Group, the Plaintiffs are entitled to recover of the Spectra Group a sum in excess of $10,000, plus interest as allowed by law. 7 US2000 4437094.3 (Civil Conspiracy) 47. The allegations contained in Paragraphs 1-46 above are re-alleged and incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. 48. Spectra Group and Krider have discussed, colluded and agreed to work together to deprive the Plaintiff of the benefits of and value of the Site Work, Wetlands Work and permits, and the Plaintiffs have been damaged as a result. i 49. Both Spectra Group and Krider have taken overt steps in furtherance of this plan, which actions can be imputed to each. Upon information and belief, Spectra obtained Arlington I Partners' documents and information from Krider, which documents and information Krider was obligated to keep confidential or which served to unjustly enrich each Defendant. 50. Spectra Group and Krider are jointly and severally liable for the damages caused to the Plaintiffs. Demand for Jury Trial and Judgment WHEREFORE, the Plaintiffs pray for relief from the Defendants, jointly and severally as follows: 1. That the Plaintiffs have and recover from each Defendant, jointly and severally, a sum in excess of $10,000.00, plus interest thereon, from and after the date of the filing of this action, until paid in the highest amount allowed by law. 2. That the costs of this action be taxed against the Defendants, jointly and severally. 3. That all issues be tried by a jury. 4. For such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper. 8 US2000 9437091.3 This the Z`A day of October, 2006. Jam. C,..?y,?,,,.., (. •a c.. 311N.?r '?' Z f 1? ?' Stephen R.

EEP has deposited the check and issued a receipt on May 25, 2006. Since then, however, EEP has learned that the payment was not made on behalf of the permit holder, Arlington Partners, for whom EEP accepted the responsibility of providing mitigation. Acceptance of mitigation responsibility only applies to the permit holder, and is not transferable. Since The Spectra Group is not the permit holder and did not request acceptance for providing mitigation from EEP, we are planning to issue you a full refund of the amount paid. If The Spectra Group wishes to use EEP for compensatory mitigation in the future, you will have to submit an In Lieu Fee Request Form and request an acceptance letter in the normal manner. If you have any questions, please contact David Robinson at 919-715-2228 or by email at david.robinson@ncmail.net. Sincerely, • ??! rw;lliam D.

Jeff Farmer and I spoke briefly to you and Alan Johnson about our issue with the Wetlands Permit and Compensatory Mitigation payment for property we purchased in Salisbury, NC. The original Corps permit 200430814 is under the name Arlington Partners LLC and it included a 12.5 acre tract composed of 8.52 acres then owned by Curry Krider and the remaining tract presently owned by Arlington Partners LLC. Of the .44 acres of wetlands on the 12.5 acre tract, .43 acres are located on the 8.52 acre tract that we recently purchased from Krider. We are going to be doing the same work originally proposed and the impacts will be the same as the original permit on our property. Because the work has been done through a nationwide permit and because the permits follow the land, we are asking that the Section 401 Permit be modified or reissued to the Spectra Group for the 8.52 acres we own. I have included the reissued Corps Pennit and NCEEP is meeting on Monday, July 24 regarding our reapplication for the IN-LIEU FEE REQUEST FORM (Bill Gilmore and Jim Stanfill). I apologize for any inconvenience this request causes. Our goal is to fulfill the obligations of the original pennit for its original intent, but to release Arlington Partners from any liability for work done on our property. If we can answer your questions or clarify our position please give myself or Jeff Farmer a call at 901-685-2300. Thanks and we look forward to your response. L?

Arlington is a North Carolina limited liability corporation with T. Michael Kelley as its manager. I have attached earlier letters to other governmental agencies with this corporate information. Mr. Kelley is the only person authorized to act, including signing documents, on behalf of Arlington. A dispute has arisen, as it has come to our attention that others, including Curry Krider and the Spectra Group, may have represented that they were authorized agents of Arlington in order to procure rights under its 401/404 and DWQ permit or use Arlington's 404 permit application and permits as issued and thereby take advantage of the work done by Arlington. Arlington has not authorized anyone but Mr. Kelley to take action for Arlington related to its permits. Any action taken by your office upon such representation by anyone other than Mr. Kelley should be rescinded immediately to alleviate the need for my client taking future action to stop these unauthorized acts.

Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 211 .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. undated 11/1/2005 Page 9 of 12 it f 2. USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Pennits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence sliall be placed on hold as incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at littp://li2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwctIands/strmgide.litml. 1.

Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 211 .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. Updated 11/1/2005 Page 9 of 12 USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and fllnction and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at littp://li2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwctl,inds/strmt;ide.litml. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction.

After reviewing your application, we have determined that this project is covered by Water Quality General Certification Number 3402, which can be viewed on our web site at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. The General Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 39 once it is issued to you by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Please note that you should get any other federal, state or local permits before proceeding with your project, including those required by (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge, and Water Supply Watershed regulations. The above noted Certification will expire when the associated 404 permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General Certification. This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change your project, you must notify us in writing, and you may be required to send us a new application for a new certification. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of the Certification and approval letter; and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. In addition to the requirements of the certification, you must also comply with the following conditions: 1. The Mooresville Regional Office shall be notified in writing once construction at the approved impact areas has commenced. 2. All wetlands, streams, surface waters, and riparian buffers located on the project site where impacts are not allowed shall be clearly marked (example- orange fabric fencing) prior to any land disturbing activities.

A final written storm water management plan shall be approved, in writing, by this Office prior to the construction of any permanent facilities at the site. The storm water facilities must be designed to treat the runoff from the entire project, unless otherwise explicitly approved by the Division of Water Quality. Also, before any permanent building is occupied at the site, the facilities (as approved by this Office) shall be constructed and operational, and the storm water management plan (as approved by this Office) shall be implemented. The structural storm water practices as approved by this Office as well as drainage patterns must be maintained in perpetuity. No changes to the structural storm water facilities shall be made without written authorization from the Division of Water Quality. 6. No waste, spoils, solids, or fill of any kind shall be placed in wetlands, waters, or riparian areas beyond the footprint of the impacts depicted in the Preconstruction Notification application. All construction activities associated with this project shall meet, and/or exceed, those requirements specified in the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual and shall be conducted so that no violations of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules occur. 7. Sediment and erosion control devices shall not be placed in wetlands or waters to the maximum extent practicable. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands and waters is unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade restored within two months of the date the Division of Land Resources has released the project. 8. Continuing Compliance. The applicant (The Sprectra Group, Inc.) shall conduct all activities in a manner so as not to contravene any state water quality standard (including any requirements for compliance with section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act) and any other appropriate requirements of state and federal law. If DWQ determines that such standards or laws are not being met (including the failure to sustain a designated or achieved use) or that state or federal law is being violated, or that further conditions are necessary to assure compliance, DWQ may reevaluate and modify this certification to include conditions appropriate to assure compliance with such standards and requirements in accordance with 15 A NCAC 2H.0507(d). Before codifying the certification, DWQ shall notify the applicant and the US Army Corps of Engineers, provide public notice in accordance with 15A NCAC 21-1.0503, and provide opportunity for public hearing in accordance with 15A NCAC 21-1.0504.
