Kramer, 2nd, Esquire Kraaer & Kramer, Attorneys-at-Law One Irvine Row Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013 Dear Bill: In reference to your letter of August 14, 1978, it is .y opinion that the value of the stock of J. P. Bixler and Sona, Inc. would be the same value as of May 1, 1978 that .y letter of July 21, 1978 reflect. the value at Dec..ber 31, 1977. My opinion is based on the business cycle of the Hardware Stores. That is, since the hardware business is at a low ebb January, February and part of March each year and is the worst business period of the year, and the latter part of MArch, April and May of course in their Spring .eason and the business improves. Due to those circ~tanstances, it i8 .y opinion that there would be no material change to the value of the bu.ines8 between Dec..ber 31, 1977 and May 1, 1978. And to ay know- ledge no alsets were sold or purchased during thi. period. If you have any questions or if you want to aeet and discu.. the.e valuations, plea.e contact me.

Kramer II, Esquire 1 Irvine Ruw Carlisle, PA 17013 Dear Bill; In response to your request for a valuation of the stock of J. P. Bixler & Sons, Inc., as of December 31, 1977, we hereby submit to you the following; 1. In accordance with information recorded in our work papers, there were 670 shares of common stock ~"ith a pH value of $100 per share, outstanding as of the date of death. 2. The book value of the outstanding stock as of December 31, 1977, was $401,569, or $599.36 per share. 3~ The Corporation reci)rds silOYJ tlH' fc)llo\ving net profit:; for the past three years: 1977 1976 1975 $15,179 624 3,116 The fixed assets, composed of real estat,! and equipment, are carried at a net book value of $38,45/L These have prob,lbly appreci.'lted in value. The inventory is reflected at a value of $520,576. The inventory turnover in each of the last several years has only been 1 1/4 times, Wllich indicates the possibility of a substantial amount of obsolete and unusable items. Taking these items into consideration, we feel that a fair valuation would be arrived at as follows: Recorded book val'je, l)pcember 31, 1977 $401,:569 Add: Estimated appreci3tion of real estate and equipment to $100,000 61,546 Ded'lc t: Estimated inventory obsolescence-20% ( 104 ..L~~2t ~5U.'~"t~_~,?_~"_Y-,q 11.1 €~ $J59,()()O Add: Earnings factor - average of last 3 years capitalized at 10% 63,060 .$_422 ..Q.~Q MEMBERS - AMERICAN INSTITUTE CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS - PENNSYLVANIA INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PITRT If" .r<Y>""~. ,,_^ William A. Kramer II, Esquire Page 2 July 21, 1978 Since the aforegoing computation so closely approximates book value we suggest that the recorded net value of the assets, or the book value of the stock, be used 88 the actual value of the capi.tal stock outstanding, i.e.: Book value, 670 shareR outstanding $401,569 Value per share of outstanding stock $ 599 If you have any questions, or need additional information relating to this matter, please call or writ€ me.

Hertzler, Residential Property Attn: Mr. William Kramer 2nd. Dear Mr. Kramer: On September 20, 1978, I personally inspected, for the purpose of establishing market value, the residential property of the Estate of J. W. Hertzler located at 256 Belvedere St., Carlisle, Pa. Tho homo is locatod in 11 /o{ood It] J'o"idontill] <HHtrlct within th(> Borough of CarIb.le on a woll landscapod lot 100 Joot by lHO foot in silt.n. The home was built in 1941. It is a two story house of brick and wood siding construction, containing approximately 1860 square feet in addition to a basement recreation room of approximately 325 square feet, An integral attached 1 car garage is approximately 13 feet by 26 feet in size. The house contains 4 bedrooms, one not heated from the furnace which is the original heating plant, 2! baths, living room with brick fireplace, dining room, and small "eat in" kitchen which has a stove, dishwasher, and disposal. In addition the house has a basement family room with tile floor and a small screened-in porch. The house and land is assessed at $7,560.00. Taking into account the high quality area in which this home is located, lot valuation as compared to recent comparable sales of nearby land, present day construction costs and comparable recent property sales of this same type property, my appraisal of the above described property is $74,900.00. Kramer and Kramer Page 2 September 21, 1978 I have been actively engaged in all phases of the real estate business for the past sixteen years since 1962 in the Carlisle area. I have been licensed as a Real Estate Broker by the Commonwealth of Pa., since 1965.
