Where Landlord is legally required to file personal property tax returns, Tenant will be provided with copies of assessment notices indicating a value in excess of the reported value in sufficient time for Tenant to file a protest.

"Impositions" ------------------------------------------------------ means, collectively, [i] taxes (including, without limitation, all capital stock and franchise taxes of Landlord imposed by the Facility State or any governmental entity in the Facility State due to this lease transaction or Landlord's ownership of the Leased Property and the income arising therefrom, or due to Landlord being considered as doing business in the Facility State because of Landlord's ownership of the Leased Property or lease thereof to Tenant), all real estate and personal property ad valorem, sales and use, business or occupation, single business, gross receipts, transaction privilege, rent or similar taxes; [ii] assessments (including, without limitation, all assessments for public improvements or benefits, whether or not commenced or completed prior to the date hereof and whether or not to be completed within the Term); [iii] ground rents, water, sewer or other rents and charges, excises, tax levies, and fees (including, without limitation, license, permit, inspection, authorization and similar fees); [iv] all taxes imposed on Tenant's operations of the Leased Property, including, without limitation, employee withholding taxes, income taxes and intangible taxes; [v] all taxes imposed by the Facility State or any governmental entity in the Facility State with respect to the conveyance of the Leased Property by Landlord to Tenant or Tenant's designee, including, without limitation, conveyance taxes; and [vi] all other governmental charges, in each case whether general or special, ordinary or extraordinary, or foreseen or unforeseen, of every character in respect of the Leased Property or any part thereof and/or the Rent (including all interest and penalties thereon due to any failure in payment by Tenant), which at any time prior to, during or in respect of the Term hereof may be assessed or imposed on or in respect of or be a lien upon [a] Landlord or Landlord's interest in the Leased Property or any part thereof; [b] the Leased Property or any part thereof or any rent therefrom or any estate, right, title or interest therein; or [c] any occupancy, operation, use or possession of, or sales from, or activity conducted on, or in connection with the Leased Property or the leasing or use by Tenant of the Leased Property or any part thereof. Tenant shall not, however, be required to pay any capital gains tax or any tax based on net income imposed on Landlord by any governmental entity other than the capital stock and franchise taxes described in clause [i] above. 3.3 Escrow of ImpositionsEscrow of Impositions. Tenant shall deposit with -------------------------------------------- Landlord on the first day of each month a sum equal to 1/12th of the Impositions assessed against the Leased Property for the preceding tax year for real estate taxes, which sums shall be used by Landlord toward payment of such Impositions. In addition, if an Event of Default occurs and while it remains uncured, Tenant shall, at Landlord's election, deposit with Landlord on the first day of each month a sum equal to 1/12th of the Impositions assessed against the Leased Property for the preceding tax year other than for real estate taxes, which sums shall be used by Landlord toward payment of such Impositions. Tenant, on demand, shall pay to Landlord any additional funds necessary to pay and discharge the obligations of Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this section. The receipt by Landlord of the payment of such Impositions by and from Tenant shall only be as an accommodation to Tenant, the mortgagees, and the taxing authorities, and shall not be construed as rent or income to Landlord, Landlord serving, if at all, only as a conduit for delivery purposes. The foregoing provision shall become applicable only at such time as the escrow of Impositions is not required by Lender, it being understood and agreed that for so long as Lender requires that the real estate tax portion of the Imposition be escrowed with Lender, Tenant shall be deemed to have fulfilled its obligations under this 3.3 with respect to the real estate tax portion of the Imposition provided Tenant receives notice either from Lender or from Landlord as required pursuant to 15.12.4 and then Tenant makes the required escrow payment of the real estate tax portion of the Imposition to Lender as and when due. 3.4 UtilitiesUtilities. Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, all taxes, ------------------ assessments, charges, deposits, and bills for utilities, including, without limitation, charges for water, gas, oil, sanitary and storm sewer, electricity, telephone service, and trash collection, which may be charged against the occupant of the Improvements during the Term. If an Event of Default occurs and while it remains uncured, Tenant shall, at Landlord's election, deposit with Landlord on the first day of each month a sum equal to 1/12th of the amount of the annual utility expenses for the preceding Lease Year, which sums shall be used by Landlord to pay such utilities. Tenant shall, on demand, pay to Landlord any additional amount needed to pay such utilities. Landlord's receipt of such payments shall only be an accommodation to Tenant and the utility companies and shall not constitute rent or income to Landlord. Absent circumstances beyond Tenant's reasonable control, Tenant shall at all times maintain that amount of heat necessary to ensure against the freezing of water lines. Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any liability or damages to the utility systems and the Leased Property that may result from Tenant's failure to maintain sufficient heat in the Improvements absent circumstances beyond Tenant's reasonable control. 3.5 Discontinuance of UtilitiesDiscontinuance of Utilities. Landlord will -------------------------------------------------------- not be liable for damages to person or property or for injury to, or interruption of, business for any discontinuance of utilities nor will such discontinuance in any way be construed as an eviction of Tenant or cause an abatement of rent or operate to release Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations under this Lease. 3.6 Business ExpensesBusiness Expenses. Tenant shall promptly pay all ------------------------------------ expenses and costs incurred in connection with the operation of the Facility on the Leased Property, including, without limitation, employee benefits, employee vacation and sick pay, consulting fees, and expenses for inventory and supplies. 3.7 Permitted ContestsPermitted Contests.

(b) Landlord may terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant, exclude Tenant from possession of the Leased Property and use commercially reasonable efforts to lease the Leased Property to others, holding Tenant liable for the difference in the amounts received from such reletting and the amounts payable by Tenant under this Lease. (c) Landlord may re-enter the Leased Property and have, repossess and enjoy the Leased Property as if this Lease had not been made, and in such event, Tenant and its successors and assigns shall remain liable for any contingent or unliquidated obligations or sums owing at the time of such repossession. (d) Landlord may have access to and inspect, examine and make copies of the books and records and any and all accounts, data and income tax and other returns of Tenant insofar as they pertain to the Leased Property subject to landlord's obligation to maintain the confidentiality of any patient or employee information in accordance with the requirements of applicable State or federal law. (e) Landlord may accelerate all of the unpaid Rent hereunder based on the then current Rent Schedule so that the aggregate Rent for the unexpired term of this Lease becomes immediately due and payable. (f) Landlord may take whatever action at law or in equity as may appear necessary or desirable to collect the Rent and other amounts payable under this Lease then due and thereafter to become due, or to enforce performance and observance of any obligations, agreements or covenants of Tenant under this Lease. (g) With respect to the Collateral or any portion thereof and Secured Party's security interest therein, Secured Party may exercise all of its rights as secured party under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Secured Party may sell the Collateral by public or private sale upon five days notice to Tenant. Tenant agrees that a commercially reasonable manner of disposition of the Collateral shall include, without limitation and at the option of Secured Party, a sale of the Collateral, in whole or in part, concurrently with the sale of the Leased Property. (h) Secured Party may obtain control over and collect the Receivables and apply the proceeds of the collections to satisfaction of the Obligor Group Obligations unless prohibited by law. Tenant appoints Landlord or its designee as attorney for Tenant with powers [i] to receive, to endorse, to sign and/or to deliver, in Tenant's name or Secured Party's name, any and all checks, drafts, and other instruments for the payment of money relating to the Receivables, and to waive demand, presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, and any other notice with respect to any such instrument; [ii] to sign Tenant's name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Receivable, drafts against account debtors, assignments and verifications of Receivables, and notices to account debtors; [iii] to send verifications of Receivables to any account debtor; and [iv] to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out this Lease. Absent gross negligence or willful misconduct of Secured Party, Secured Party shall not be liable for any omissions, commissions, errors of judgment, or mistakes in fact or law made in the exercise of any such powers. At Secured Party's option, Tenant shall [i] provide Secured Party a full accounting of all amounts received on account of Receivables with such frequency and in such form as Secured Party may require, either with or without applying all collections on Receivables in payment of the Obligor Group Obligations or [ii] deliver to Secured Party on the day of receipt all such collections in the form received and duly endorsed by Tenant. At Secured Party's request, Tenant shall institute any action or enter into any settlement determined by Secured Party to be necessary to obtain recovery or redress from any account debtor in default of Receivables. Secured Party may give notice of its security interest in the Receivables to any or all account debtors with instructions to make all payments on Receivables directly to Secured Party, thereby terminating Tenant's authority to collect Receivables. After terminating Tenant's authority to enforce or collect Receivables, Secured Party shall have the right to take possession of any or all Receivables and records thereof and is hereby authorized to do so, and only Secured Party shall have the right to collect and enforce the Receivables. Prior to the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at Tenant's cost and expense, but on behalf of Secured Party and for Secured Party's account, Tenant shall collect or otherwise enforce all amounts unpaid on Receivables and hold all such collections in trust for Secured Party, but Tenant may commingle such collections with Tenant's own funds, until Tenant's authority to do so has been terminated, which may be done only after an Event of Default. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, Secured Party does not assume any of Tenant's obligations under any Receivable, and Secured Party shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of any of the terms and conditions thereof by Tenant. (i) Without waiving any prior or subsequent Event of Default, Landlord may waive any Event of Default or, with or without waiving any Event of Default, remedy any default. (j) Landlord may terminate its obligation, if any, to disburse any Landlord Payments. (k) Landlord may enter and take possession of the Land and the Facility without terminating this Lease and complete construction and renovation of the Improvements (or any part thereof) and perform the obligations of Tenant under the Lease Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the purposes aforesaid, Tenant hereby appoints Landlord its lawful attorney-in-fact with full power to do any of the following: [i] complete construction, renovation and equipping of the Improvements in the name of Tenant; [ii] use unadvanced funds remaining under the Investment Amount, or funds that may be reserved, escrowed, or set aside for any purposes hereunder at any time, or to advance funds in excess of the Investment Amount, to complete the Improvements; [iii] make changes in the plans and specifications that shall be necessary or desirable to complete the Improvements in substantially the manner contemplated by the plans and specifications; [iv] retain or employ new general contractors, subcontractors, architects, engineers, and inspectors as shall be required for said purposes; [v] pay, settle, or compromise all existing bills and claims, which may be liens or security interests, or to avoid such bills and claims becoming liens against the Facility or security interest against fixtures or equipment, or as may be necessary or desirable for the completion of the construction and equipping of the Improvements or for the clearance of title; [vi] execute all applications and certificates, in the name of Tenant, that may be required in connection with any construction; [vii] do any and every act that Tenant might do in its own behalf, to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the Improvements; and [viii] to execute, deliver and file all applications and other documents and take any and all actions necessary to transfer the operations of the Facility to Secured Party or Secured Party's designee. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. (l) Landlord may apply, with or without notice to Tenant, for the appointment of a receiver ("Receiver") for Tenant or Tenant's business or for the Leased Property. Unless prohibited by law, such appointment may be made either before or after termination of Tenant's possession of the Leased Property, without notice, without regard to the solvency or insolvency of Tenant at the time of application for such Receiver and without regard to the then value of the Leased Property, and Secured Party may be appointed as Receiver. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Landlord shall be entitled to appointment of a receiver as a matter of right and without the need to make any showing other than the existence of an Event of Default. The Receiver shall have the power to collect the rents, income, profits and Receivables of the Leased Property during the pendency of the receivership and all other powers which may be necessary or are usual in such cases for the protection, possession, control, management and operation of the Leased Property during the whole of said proceeding. All sums of money received by the Receiver from such rents and income, after deducting therefrom the reasonable charges and expenses paid or incurred in connection with the collection and disbursement thereof, shall be applied to the payment of the Rent or any other monetary obligation of Tenant under this Lease, including, without limitation, any losses or damages incurred by Landlord under this Lease. Tenant, if requested to do so, will consent to the appointment of any such Receiver as aforesaid. (m) Landlord may terminate any management agreement with respect to any of the Leased Property and shall have the right to retain one or more managers for the Leased Property at the expense of Tenant, such manager(s) to serve for such term and at such compensation as Landlord reasonably determines is necessary under the circumstances. 8.3 Right of SetoffRight of Setoff .

The rights of Landlord under this section are in addition to any other rights and remedies Landlord may have against Tenant. 8.4 Performance of Tenant's CovenantsPerformance of Tenant's Covenants . ------------------------------------ Landlord may perform any obligation of Tenant which Tenant has failed to perform within five days after Landlord has sent a written notice to Tenant informing it of its specific failure. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord on demand, as Additional Rent, for any expenditures thus incurred by Landlord and shall pay interest thereon at Landlord's rate of return as provided in the Commitment. 8.5 Late Payment ChargeLate Payment Charge . Tenant acknowledges that any --------------------- default in the payment of any installment of Rent payable hereunder will result in loss and additional expense to Landlord in servicing any indebtedness of Landlord secured by the Leased Property, handling such delinquent payments, and meeting its other financial obligations, and because such loss and additional expense is extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain, Tenant agrees that in the event any Rent payable to Landlord hereunder is not paid within 10 days after the due date, Tenant shall pay a late charge of 5% of the amount of the overdue payment as a reasonable estimate of such loss and expenses, unless applicable law requires a lesser charge, in which event the maximum rate permitted by such law may be charged by Landlord. The 10-day grace period set forth in this section shall not extend the time for payment of Rent or the period for curing any default or constitute a waiver of such default. 8.6 Default RentDefault Rent . At Landlord's option at any time after the ------------- occurrence of an Event of Default and while such Event of Default remains uncured, the Base Rent payable under this Lease shall be increased to reflect Landlord's rate of return of 18.5% per annum on the Investment Amount ("Default Rent"); provided, however, that if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any other amounts payable under this Lease are deemed to be interest, the Default Rent shall be adjusted to ensure that the aggregate interest payable under this Lease does not accrue at a rate in excess of the maximum legal rate. 8.7 Attorneys' FeesAttorneys' Fees . Tenant shall pay all reasonable costs ---------------- and expenses incurred by Landlord in enforcing or preserving Landlord's rights under this Lease, whether or not an Event of Default has actually occurred or has been declared and thereafter cured, including, without limitation, [i] the fees, expenses, and costs of any litigation, appellate, receivership, administrative, bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding; [ii] reasonable attorney, paralegal, consulting and witness fees and disbursements; and [iii] the expenses, including, without limitation, lodging, meals, and transportation, of Landlord and its employees, agents, attorneys, and witnesses in preparing for litigation, administrative, bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceedings and attendance at hearings, depositions, and trials in connection therewith. All such reasonable costs, expenses, charges and fees payable by Tenant shall be deemed to be Additional Rent under this Lease. 8.8 Escrows and Application of PaymentsEscrows and Application of Payments . ----------------------------------- As security for the performance of the Obligor Group Obligations, Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all its right, title, and interest in and to all monies escrowed with Landlord under this Lease and all deposits with utility companies, taxing authorities and insurance companies; provided, however, that Landlord shall not exercise its rights hereunder until an Event of Default has occurred. Any payments received by Landlord under any provisions of this Lease during the existence or continuance of an Event of Default shall be applied to the Obligor Group Obligations in the order which Landlord may determine. 8.9 Remedies CumulativeRemedies Cumulative . The remedies of Landlord -------------------- herein are cumulative to and not in lieu of any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity. The use of any one remedy shall not be taken to exclude or waive the right to use any other remedy. 8.10 WaiversWaivers . Tenant waives [i] any notice required by statute or ------- other law as a condition to bringing an action for possession of, or eviction from, any of the Leased Property, [ii] any right of re-entry or repossession, [iii] any right to a trial by jury in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Lease, [iv] any right of redemption whether pursuant to statute, at law or in equity, [v] all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protest, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices to quit and any other notice or demand of any kind other than those specifically provided for in this Lease, and [vi] all notices of the existence, creation or incurring of any obligation or advance under this Lease before or after this date. 8.11 Obligations Under the Bankruptcy CodeObligations Under the Bankruptcy --------------------------------------- Code .

Included within and in addition to any other conditions or obligations imposed upon Tenant or its successor in the event of the assumption and/or assignment of this Lease are the following: [i] the cure of any monetary defaults and reimbursement of pecuniary loss within not more than five Business Days of assumption and/or assignment; [ii] the deposit of an additional amount equal to not less than three months' Base Rent, which amount is agreed to be a necessary and appropriate deposit to adequately assure the future performance under this Lease of the Tenant or its assignee; and [iii] the continued use of the Leased Property for the Facility Uses. Nothing herein shall be construed as an agreement by Landlord to any assignment of this Lease or a waiver of Landlord's right to seek adequate assurance of future performance in addition to that set forth hereinabove in connection with any proposed assumption and/or assignment of this Lease. ARTICLE 9: DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTIONDAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION 9.1 Notice of CasualtyNotice of Casualty .

The term "substantially destroyed" means any casualty resulting in the loss of use of 50% or more of the licensed beds at any one Facility. 9.2.2 If the Facility Improvements are substantially destroyed during the final 18 months of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease and retain the insurance proceeds unless Tenant exercises its option to renew as set forth in 9.2.3. If Landlord elects to terminate, Landlord shall give notice ("Termination Notice") of its election to terminate this Lease within 30 days after receipt of Tenant's notice of the damage.

If this Lease is so terminated, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all Rent and all other obligations accrued under this Lease through the effective date of termination. 9.2.2.1 If the Facility Improvements are substantially destroyed during the final 18 months of the Initial Term or the Renewal Term and Landlord gives the Termination Notice, Tenant shall have the option to renew this Lease.

Before beginning such repairs or rebuilding with respect to any Casualty, or letting any contracts in connection with such repairs or rebuilding, Tenant will submit for Landlord's approval, which approval Landlord will not unreasonably withhold or delay, plans and specifications meeting the requirements of 16.2 for such repairs or rebuilding. Promptly after receiving Landlord's approval of the plans and specifications, Tenant will begin such repairs or rebuilding and will prosecute the repairs and rebuilding to completion with diligence, subject, however, to strikes, lockouts, acts of God, embargoes, governmental restrictions, and other causes beyond Tenant's reasonable control. Landlord will make available to Tenant the net proceeds of any fire or other casualty insurance paid to Landlord for such repair or rebuilding as the same progresses, after deduction of any costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys' fees.

Landlord will contribute to such payments out of the insurance proceeds an amount equal to the proportion that the total net amount received by Landlord from insurers bears to the total estimated cost of the rebuilding or repairing, multiplied by the payment by Tenant on account of such work. Landlord may, however, withhold 10% from each payment until the work is completed and proof has been furnished to Landlord that no lien or liability has attached or will attach to the Leased Property or to Landlord in connection with such repairing or rebuilding. Upon the completion of rebuilding and the furnishing of such proof, the balance of the net proceeds of such insurance payable to Tenant on account of such repairing or rebuilding will be paid to Tenant. If required by law as a result of the nature or extent of the damage, Tenant will obtain and deliver to Landlord a temporary or final certificate of occupancy before the damaged Leased Property is reoccupied for any purpose. Tenant shall complete such repairs or rebuilding free and clear of mechanic's or other liens, and in accordance with the building codes and all applicable laws, ordinances, regulations, or orders of any state, municipal, or other public authority affecting the repairs or rebuilding, and also in accordance with all requirements of the insurance rating organization, or similar body. Any remaining proceeds of insurance after such restoration will be Tenant's property. 9.5 Insufficient ProceedsInsufficient Proceeds .

Tenant shall not, by reason of the deposit or payment, be entitled to any reimbursement from Landlord or diminution in or postponement of the payment of the Rent. 9.6 Not Trust FundsNot Trust Funds . Notwithstanding anything herein or at ---------------- law or equity to the contrary, none of the insurance proceeds paid to Landlord as herein provided shall be deemed trust funds, and Landlord shall be entitled to dispose of such proceeds as provided in this Article 9. Tenant expressly assumes all risk of loss, including a decrease in the use, enjoyment or value, of the Leased Property from any casualty whatsoever, whether or not insurable or insured against. 9.7 Landlord's InspectionLandlord's Inspection . During the progress of ---------------------- such repairs or rebuilding, Landlord and its architects and engineers may, from time to time, inspect the Leased Property and will be furnished, if required by them, with copies of all plans, shop drawings, and specifications relating to such repairs or rebuilding. Tenant will keep all plans, shop drawings, and specifications at the building, and Landlord and its architects and engineers may examine them at all reasonable times and on reasonable notice. If, during such repairs or rebuilding, Landlord and its architects and engineers determine that the repairs or rebuilding are not being done in accordance with the approved plans and specifications, Landlord will give prompt notice in writing to Tenant, specifying in detail the particular deficiency, omission, or other respect in which Landlord claims such repairs or rebuilding do not accord with the approved plans and specifications. Upon the receipt of any such notice, Tenant will cause corrections to be made to any deficiencies, omissions, or such other respect. Tenant's obligations to supply insurance, according to Article 4, will be applicable to any repairs or rebuilding under this section. 9.8 Landlord's CostsLandlord's Costs . Tenant shall, within 30 days after ----------------- receipt of an invoice from Landlord, pay the costs, expenses, and fees of any architect or engineer employed by Landlord to review any plans and specifications and to supervise and approve any construction, or for any services rendered by such architect or engineer to Landlord as contemplated by any of the provisions of this Lease, or for any services performed by Landlord's attorneys in connection therewith. 9.9 No Rent AbatementNo Rent Abatement .

ACCOUNT NUMBER: 353321001011 NOTIFY: Michael A. Crabtree PHONE: (419) 247-2800 EXHIBIT K: BASE PRICE (A) The base price ("Base Price") for the Leased Property will be an amount equal to the greater of [i] the Investment Amount; or [ii] the sum of [a] the Investment Amount plus [b] 50% of the difference between the Fair Market Value at the time of the acquisition and the sum of [I] the Investment Amount and [II] $1,100,000.00. (B) Fair Market Value. The fair market value (the "Fair Market Value") of ------------------- the Leased Property shall be determined as follows: The parties shall attempt to determine the Fair Market Value by mutual agreement within 15 days after giving the Termination Notice (the "Negotiation Period"). However, if the parties do not agree on the Fair Market Value during the Negotiation Period, the following provisions shall apply: Landlord and Tenant shall each give the other party notice of the name of an acceptable appraiser five Business Days after the end of the Negotiation Period. The two appraisers will then select a third appraiser within an additional five days. Each appraiser must demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of both Landlord and Tenant that it has significant experience in appraising properties similar to the Leased Property. Within five days after designation, each appraiser shall submit a resume to Landlord and Tenant setting forth such appraiser's qualifications, including education and experience with similar properties. A notice of objections to the qualifications of any appraiser shall be given within 10 days after receipt of such resume. If a party fails to timely object to the qualifications of an appraiser, then the appraiser shall be conclusively deemed satisfactory. If a party gives a timely notice of objection to the qualifications of an appraiser, then the disqualified appraiser shall be replaced by an appraiser selected by the qualified appraisers or, if all appraisers are disqualified, then by an appraiser selected by a commercial arbitrator acceptable to Landlord and Tenant. The Fair Market Value shall be determined by the appraisers within 60 days thereafter as follows. Each of the appraisers shall be instructed to prepare an appraisal of the Leased Property in accordance with the following instructions: The Leased Property is to be valued upon the three conventional approaches to estimate value known as the Income, Sales Comparison and Cost Approaches. Once the approaches are completed, the appraiser correlates the individual approaches into a final value conclusion. The three approaches to estimate value are summarized as follows: INCOME APPROACH: This valuation approach recognizes that the value of the operating tangible and intangible assets can be represented by the expected economic viability of the business giving returns on and of the assets. SALES COMPARISON APPROACH: This valuation approach is based upon the principle of substitution. When a facility is replaceable in the market, the market approach assumes that value tends to be set at the price of acquiring an equally desirable substitute facility. Since healthcare market conditions change and frequently are subject to regulatory and financing environments, adjustments need to be considered. These adjustments also consider the operating differences such as services and demographics. COST APPROACH: This valuation approach estimates the value of the tangible assets only. Value is represented by the market value of the land plus the depreciated reproduction cost of all improvements and equipment. In general, the Income and Sales Comparison Approaches are considered the best representation of value because they cover both tangible and intangible assets, consider the operating characteristics of the business and have the most significant influence on attracting potential investors. The appraised values submitted by the three appraisers shall be ranked from highest value to middle value to lowest value, the appraised value (highest or lowest) which is furthest from the middle appraised value shall be discarded, and the remaining two appraised values shall be averaged to arrive at the Fair Market Value.
