It should be noted that the subject is part of a larger parcel of land containing 16.707_+ acres. We have been instructed to exclude 3.5_+ acres at the property's northeasterly border containing the subject's improvements, however, we have not been provided a survey showing this area (we have been provided a concept plan showing its general location). The following description describes the entire property of which the subject is a portion: It is generally rectangular in shape with 50' of frontage on Sound View Avenue. It has a northerly line of 364+', an easterly lot line of 2,016_+', a southerly line of 376_+', and a westerly line of 1,957_+'. The subject portion will have more of a flag shape, but will retain a rectangular overall shape. It is presumed to retain sufficient road access to allow development to its maximum yield. The subject property has an overall generally level topography and is mostly cleared and in use as farmland. Utilities (Electric and telephone) are available along Sound View Avenue. Sound View Avenue is a two way, two lane, publicly maintained macadam paved roadway. It should be noted that Sound View Avenue ends at the westerly border of the subject and that there is a 50' right of way easement running across the northerly edge of the subject intended for future continuation of the road. The easement currently provides access to lands to the northeast of the subject. The owner of the subject property made an Irrevocable Offer of Dedication of this portion of the land to the Town of Southold. This was a condition of development required when the subject lot was originally created (part of a subdivision circa 1984). GIVEN OESCRIPTION LAND (CONTINUED) Land use surrounding the subject is primarily vacant and improved residential properties. The above dimensions have all been approximated from the Suffolk County tax map and a survey of the property. In the addenda to this report, we have included a copy of the Suffolk County Tax Map which shows the entire property of which the subject of this appraisal is a portion of. 2. IMPROVEMENTS There are some greenhouses located at or near the northerly border of the subject. They are not felt to contribute significant value to the subject and were excluded from value estimates. The property is appraised as vacant land. B. PRESENT USE AND OCCUPANCY The subject is presently in use as farmland (nursery plants) and is essentially vacant. 19 GIVEN A P P R A I S A L R E Q U E S T S LAND PRESERVATION COMMITTEE MEETING TUESDAY~ JULY 23~ 2002 AT 7:30 P.M.

E N V I R O N M E N T A L S U M M A R Y Phase I Environmental Site Assessment 4050 Sound View Avenue 1.0 SUMMARY The subject property has been inspected and reviewed independently by ~elson, Pope & Voorhis, LLC in order determine if potential enviromnental or public health concerns are present. This report is intended to identify Recognized Enviromnental Conditions (as defined in ASTM Standards on Environmental Site Assessments for Commercial Real Estate and the Target Protocol) on the subject property based on the four (4) basic components of a Full Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment (ESA): records review, site reconnaissance, interviews and evaluation and reporting. The subject property lies in the Hamlet of Mattituck, Town of Southold, County of Suffolk, New York. The overall properly is comprised of 17.5 acres; however, this report addresses approximately 13.22 acres of the property. The subject property is located at the terminus of Sound View Avenue. The property is more particularly described as Suftblk County Tax Map # 1000-94-3- p/o 1.6. The subject property is currently farmed. A portion of the property is planted with ornamental trees, flowers, cabbage and broccoli. The majority of the property contains recently tilled soils. The northeast corner of the property contains what appeared to be two (2) greenhouse structures that are in various stages of being dismantled. Several pieces of farm equipment and pipes were observed in this area. Additionally, this area contained high grasses and it appears that the area has not been utilized recently. A small area of burnt cans and plastic was observed along the western property boundary. A small, rested drum containing burnt cans and hangers was observed in proximity to the other burnt material. An irrigation well and associated pump engine and 550 gallon above ground storage tank was observed at the southwest corner of the property. The engine was being worked on at the time of the inspection. A faint petroleum odor was detected in the general area of the pump engine. The pump engine rested on two (2) railroad ties while the tank rested on a metal grid. Small stains were observed on the sides of the pump engine and one of the railroad ties. No stains or stressed vegetation were noted around the area. Plastic buckets and crates and metal pipes were noted in the area. No Sanborn map coverage was available for the subject property or nearby area. Aerial photographs from 1938, 1957, 1966, 1976, 1980, 1994, 1999, 2001 and 2004 were reviewed in order to determine if any prior uses occupied the subject property. The area of the subject property consisted of farmland and vacant land along the shore line in the 1938 aerial photograph. The subject property was fanned in the 1957 to 1980 aerial photographs. Farming appears to have ceased prior to the 1994 aerial photograph. 4050 Sound View Avenue, Mattituck Phase l ESA An extensive government records search found no potential sources of environmental degradation on the subject property. No State or County documented regulated sites were noted in the vicinity of the subject property. In conclusion, this assessment has revealed no evidence of recognized environmental conditions in connection with the subject property, subject to the methodology and limitations of this report. The site is typical of an agricultural use and there was no evidence of reportable release or anything other than typical farm practice. Evidence of a de minimus condition associated with minor staining on the pump engine is typical of farm practice and does not appear to represent a material risk or harm to the public health or environment and does not appear as a condition which would be subject to an enforcement action. As a result the following recommendations are provided: If the irrigation well is not in use, or if further confirmation is required, the 550 above ground storage tank and pump engine should be removed and properly disposed of. Once removed, the area beneath the tank and pump engine should be inspected to determine if prior release has occurred. Ifa reportable quantity of petroleum product is observed the NYSDEC Spill Hotline should be contacted to report a spill. 2. It is recommended that if the property is to be used for residential purposes in the future, the soil should be analyzed for pesticides and heavy metals.

The exact area of the purchase is subject to a Town provided survey acceptable to the Land Preservation Committee. The purchase price is $58,000.00 (fifty-eight thousand dollars) per buildable acre. The property is listed on the To~vn's Community Preservation Project Plan as property that should be preserved due to its agricultural value. FURTHER NOTICE is hereby given that a more detailed description of the above mentioned parcel of land is on file in Land Preservation Department, Southold Town Hall Annex, 54375 Route 25, Southold, New York, and may be examined by any interested person during business hours. I have a notice in the file that this has appeared as a legal on the Town Clerk's bulletin board outside. It has also appeared as a legal in our local newspaper and I don't have any further documents on this proposal. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Would anybody like to come up and address the Town Board regarding this acquisition? Tim Caulfield. TIM CAULFIELD: Good afternoon, my name is Tim Caulfield. I am with Peconic Land Trust and we are here in support of this acquisition on behalf of the Town. Melissa Spiro, the Town's Land Preservation Coordinator is away on vacation this week, so she asked me to be here to just provide a little bit of information and if there were any questions. I think she has left a map here which I can, if you give me a minute, just pull out. JOAN EGAN: Turn it around so everybody can see it. MR. CAULFIELD: Well, I will describe where it is located. This is, actually the final survey turned out to be about 13.2 acres of land. It is located in the westerly section of the Oregon Road farm belt. It is all prime agricultural soils, a beautiful farm. It is 100 % preservation that is being proposed. About half nursery stock right now and half row crops and as I said, again, it is about, it is going to be 100% preserved. It is immediately adjacent to other properties that the Land Preservation Committee has been working on and the Land Trust has been ~vorking with the Committee and with the land owners to provide a nice public, private conservation project here. The owners of the property are Randy and Angela Shur, they have been terrific to work with. They have been members of the community for many years. They have owned a business and owned this farm for many years and they have decided that they are going to move to North Carolina, they have purchased a farm in North Carolina and plan to set up a nursery and orchard in that area. They wanted to sell the property but respectful of the way they owned it and hoped that they could find a way to preserve it as they were selling it. They do need to sell the entire farm, so we are working with the Land Trust and the Town and we hope to do a simultaneous closing, where the Town buys all the development rights. The Land Trust will pumhase the fee as we have done in a number of other projects working with the Town. We will be using the Peter J. Sharp fund, which is a revolving fund that we have set up specifically for the purpose of acquiring properties where the lando~vner needs to sell the entire farm and our purpose will be to get that farm back into production. The Committee, I know, is very excited about this project. The Land Trust is very excited about the project. It is not adjacent to immediately preserved land but it is in an area where we hope to create kind of the beginning of a nice assemblage. So we want to lend our support to this project and are pleased that it is up for acquisition. Thank you. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Thank you. Would anybody else like to address the Town Board on this acquisition? COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: As the Town Board liaison to the Land Preservation Committee, ! would just encourage the Town Board to approve this. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I want to thank Tim Caulfield and your group for all the ~vork you did. I knoxv this was an issue that, an acquisition that had a lot of little aspects to it that had to be worked out. Thank you for all your hard work. Can I get a motion to close? Elizabeth A.

The failure of any such instrument to comply with the provisions hereof shall not affect Grantee's rights hereunder. ARTICLE FIVE GRANTOR'S OBLIGATIONS 5.01 Taxes and Assessments Grantor shall continue to pay all taxes, levies, and assessments and other governmental or municipal charges, which may become a lien on the Property, including any taxes or levies imposed to make those payments. This provision shall not preclude Grantor from contesting such amounts and from deferring payment during such contest period. The failure of Grantor to pay all such taxes, levies and assessments and other governmental or municipal charges shall not cause an alienation of any rights or interests acquired herein by Grantee. 5.02 Indemnification Grantor shall indemnify and hold Grantee harmless for any liability, costs, attorneys' fees, judgments, expenses, charges or liens to Grantee or any of its officers, employees, agents or independent contractors arising from the physical maintenance or condition of the Property or from any taxes, levies or assessments upon it or resulting from this Easement, all of which shall be considered Grantor's obligations. 5.03 Grounds Maintenance Grantor may remove or restore trees, shrubs or other vegetation when dead, diseased, decayed or damaged, and thin and prune trees.

Grantee shall not have the right to enter upon the Property for any other purposes, except as provided in Section 6.03, or to permit access upon the Property by the public. 6.02 Restoration Grantee shall have the right to require the Grantor to restore the Property to the condition required by this Easement and to enforce this right by any action or proceeding that Grantee may reasonably deem necessary. However, Grantor shall not be liable for any changes to the Property resulting from causes beyond the Grantor's control, including, without limitation, fire, flood, storm, and earth movement, or from any prudent action taken by the Grantor under emergency conditions to prevent, abate, or mitigate significant injury to persons or to the Properby resulting from such causes. 6.03 Enforcement Riqhts of Grantee Grantor acknowledges and agrees that Grantee's remedies at law for any violation of this Easement may be inadequate. Therefore, in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights of Grantee hereunder at law or in equity, in the event any breach, default or violation of any term, provision, covenant or obligation on Grantor's part to be observed or performed pursuant to this Easement is not cured by Grantor within fifteen (15) days notice thereof by Grantee (which notice requirement is expressly waived by Grantor with respect to any such breach, default or violation which, in Grantee's reasonable judgment, requires immediate action to preserve and protect any of the open space values or otherwise to further the purposes of this Easement and which cure period is extended to a reasonable time if such restoration cannot reasonably be accomplished within 15 days), Grantee shall have the right at Grantor's sole cost and expense and at Grantee's election, To institute a suit to enjoin or cure such breach, default or violation by temporary and/or permanent injunction, (ii) To enter upon the Property and exercise reasonable efforts to terminate or cure such breach, default or violation and/or to cause the restoration of that portion of the Property affected by such breach, default or violation to the condition that existed prior thereto, or To seek or enforce such other legal and/or equitable relief or remedies as Grantee deems necessary or desirable to ensure compliance with the terms, conditions, covenants, obligations and purposes of this Easement; provided, however, that any failure, delay or election to so act by Grantee shall not be deemed to be a waiver or a forfeiture of any right or available remedy on Grantee's part with respect to such breach, default, or violation or with respect to any other breach, default or violation of any term, condition, covenant or obligation under this Easement. Grantor shall pay either directly or by reimbursement to Grantee all reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Grantee (herein called "Legal Expenses") in connection with any proceedings under this Section, as approved by the Court. 6.04 Notice All notices required by this Easement must be written. Notices shall be delivered by hand or registered mail, return receipt requested, or by certified mail, with sufficient prepaid postage affixed and with return receipts requested. Mailed notice to Grantor shall be addressed to Grantor's address as recited herein, or to such other address as Grantor may designate by notice in accordance with this Section 6.04. Hailed notice to Grantee shall be addressed to its principal office, recited herein, marked for the attention of the Supervisor and the Town Attorney, or to such other address as Grantee may designate by notice in accordance with this Section 6.04. Notice shall be deemed given and received as of the date of its manual delivery or three business days after the date of its mailing. 6.05 No Waiver Grantee's exercise of one remedy or relief under this ARTTCLE SIX shall not have the effect of waiving or limiting any other remedy or relief, and the failure to exercise or delay in exercising any remedy shall not constitute a waiver of any other remedy or relief or the use of such other remedy or relief at any other time. 6.06 Extin(]uishment of Easement/Condemnation At the mutual request of Grantor and Grantee, a court with jurisdiction may, if it determines that conditions surrounding the Property have changed so much that it becomes impossible to fulfill the Purpose of this Easement described in Section 0.03, extinguish or modify this Easement in accordance with applicable law. In that case, the mere cessation of farming on the Property shall not be construed to be grounds for extinguishment of this Easement. Tf at any time the Property or any portion thereof shall be taken or condemned by eminent domain, by the Grantee or by any other governmental entity, then this Easement shall terminate with respect to the Property, or portions thereof so taken or condemned, and the Property shall not be subject to the limitations and restrictions of this Easement. In such event, the Grantor, its successors or assigns, shall not be required to pay any penalties, but the value of the Property shall reflect the limitations of this Easement. Any condemnation award payable to the Grantor shall be in proportion to the value attributable to the residual agricultural and/or open space value of the Property and if the condemnation is undertaken by an entity other than the Grantee, then the remaining portion of the condemnation award shall be payable to the Grantee in proportion to the value attributable to the development rights transferred hereby. ARTICLE SEVEN H~SCELLANEOUS 7.01 Entire Understandinq This Easement contains the entire understanding between its parties concerning its subject matter. Any prior agreement between the parties concerning its subject matter shall be merged into this Easement and superseded by it. 7.02 Amendment This Conservation Easement may be amended only with the written consent of Grantee and current Grantor. Any such amendment shall be consistent with the Purpose of this Easement and shall comply with all applicable law and any regulations promulgated thereunder. Any such amendment shall be duly recorded. This Easement is made with the intention that it shall qualify as a Conservation Easement in perpetuity under ].R.C. Section 170(h). The parties agree to amend the provisions of this Easement if such amendment shall be necessary, to entitle Grantor to meet the requirements of Code Section 170(h). Any such amendment shall apply retroactively in the same manner as if such amendment or amendments had been set forth herein. 7.03 Alienation No property rights acquired by Grantee hereunder shall be alienated except pursuant to applicable provisions of the Town Code of the Town of Southold, following a public hearing and, thereafter, ratified by a mandatory referendum by the electors of the Town of Southold. No subsequent amendment of the provisions of the Town Code shall alter the limitations placed upon the alienation of the property rights or interests which were acquired by the Town prior to any such amendment. 7.04 Severability Any provision of this Easement restricting Grantor's activities, which is determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court, shall not be invalidated. Instead, that provision shall be reduced or limited to whatever extent that court determines will make it enforceable and effective. Any other provision of this Easement that is determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court shall be severed from the other provisions, which shall remain enforceable and effective. 7.05 Governing Law New York Law applicable to deeds and easements pertaining to land located within New York shall govern this Easement in all respects, including validity, construction, interpretation, breach, violation and performance. 7.06 Interpretation Regardless of any contrary rule of construction, no provision of this Easement shall be construed in favor of one of the parties because it was drafted by the other party's attorney. No alleged ambiguity in this Easement shall be construed against the party whose attorney drafted it. If any provision of this Easement is ambiguous or shall be subject to two or more interpretations, one of which would render that provision invalid, then that provision shall be given such interpretation as would render it valid and be consistent with the purposes of this Easement. Any rule of strict construction designed to limit the breadth of the restrictions on use of the Property shall not apply in the construction or interpretation of this Easement, and this Easement shall be interpreted broadly to effect the purposes of this Easement as intended by the parties. The parties intend that this Easement, which is by nature and character primarily negative in that Grantor has restricted and limited his right to use the Property, except as otherwise recited herein, be construed at all times and by all parties to effectuate its purposes. 7.07 Public Access Nothing contained in this Easement grants, nor shall be interpreted to grant, to the public any right to enter upon the Property or to use any images of the propetty for public or commercial use. 7.08 Warranties The warranties and representations made by the parties in this Easement shall survive its execution. 7.09 Recording Grantee shall record this Easement in the land records of the office of the Clerk of the County of Suffolk, State of New York. 7.10 HeadinClS The headings, titles and subtitles herein have been inserted solely for convenient reference, and shall be ignored in its construction. 7.11 Proceeds The grant of this Easement gives rise to a property right, immediately vested in Grantee, which, for purposes of calculating proceeds from a sale or other disposition of the Property as contemplated under Section 6.06 (''Extinguishment of Easement"), shall have a value equal to a percentage of the value of the Property unencumbered by this Easement (the "Proportionate Share"). The Proportionate Share is 72.5 per cent.
