and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified
date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: (1) buyer and seller are typically motivated;
( 2 ) b o t h p a r t i e s a r e w e l l i n f o r m e d o r we l l a d v i s e d , wi t h e a c h a c t i n g i n wh a t h e c o n s i d e r s h i s o wn b e s t i n t e r e s t ;
(3) a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; (4) payment is made in terms of cash in Canadian dollars or in
t e r m s o f f i n a n c i a l a r r a n g e m e n t s c o m p a r a b le t h e r e t o ; a n d ( 5 ) t h e p r i c e r epresents the normal consideration for the
property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.
1. Because market conditions, including economic, social and political factors change rapidly and, on occasion, without
wa r n i n g , t h e m a r k e t v a l u e e s t i m a t e e x p r e s s e d as of the date of this appraisal cannot be relied upon as of any other
d a t e e x c e p t wi t h f u r ther advice from the appraiser confirmed in writing.
2. No responsibility is assumed for matters of a legal nature that affect either the property being appraised or the title to it.
It has been assumed that the title is good and marketable and, therefore, no opinion is rendered about the title. The subject

doesn't comply, its non-compliance may affect market value. To be certain of compliance, futher investigation may be
necessary. The property is appraised on the basis of it being under responsible ownership.
3 . No s u r v e y o f t h e p r o p e rty has been made. Any sketch that is provided in the appraisal report shows approximate

appraiser's interpretation as to its size.
4. This report is completed on the basis that testimony or appearance in court is not required as a result of this appraisal
unless specific arrangements to do so have been made beforehand. Such arrangements will include, but not necessarily

considered to be reliable and they are believed to be true and correct. No responsibility is assumed for the accuracy of such items
that were furnished by other parties.
7. The opinions of value and other conclusions contained herein assume satisfactory completion of any work remaining to
be completed in a good and workmanlike manner. Further inspection may be required to confirm completion of such work.
8. The contents of this report are considered confidential and will not be disclosed by the appraiser to any party except as
provided for in the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, the client, and/or when properly entered into evidence
of a duly qualified judicial or quasi-judicial body.

of the appraisal report can be used for any purposes by anyone except: the client specified in the report and, where the
client is the mortgagee, its insurer and the borrower, if he/she paid the appraisal fee. The author's written consent and
approval must also be obtained before the appraisal (or any part of it) can be conveyed by anyone to any other parties,
including mortgagees other than the client and the public through prospectus, offering memo, advertising, public relations,

CERTIFICATION AND STATEMENT OF LIMITING CONDITIONS - PAGE 2
1. The subject market area has been researched and a minimum of three recent sales of properties have been selected that are
the most similar and proximate to the subject property for consideration in sales comparison analysis and a dollar adjustment
have been made where appropriate to reflect the market reaction to those items of significant variation. If a significant
i t e m i n a c o m p a r a b l e p r o p erty is superior to, or more favourable than, the subject property, a negative adjustment is
made to reduce the adjusted sales price of the comparable and, if a significant item in a comparable property is inferior
t o , o r l e s s f a v o u r a b l e t h a n t h e s u b j e c t p r o p e r t y , a p o s itive adjustment is made to increase the adjusted sales price
o f t h e c o m p a r able.
2. All factors known to the appraiser (and to the extent that the data permits) that have an impact on value have been taken
into consideration to the extent felt necessary in rendering a considered opinion of value. No significant information has
b e e n k n o wi n g l y wi t h h e l d f r om the appraisal report and it is believed to the best of my knowledge, that all statements
a n d i n f o r m a t i o n i n t h e a p p r a i s a l r e p o r t a r e t r ue and correct.
3. Only my personal, unbiased, and professional analysis, opinions, and conclusions are stated in the appraisal report. Included on
this form are all contingent and limiting conditions affecting the analysis, opinions, and conclusions, whether they were imposed
by the terms of the assignment or by the appraiser.
4. I have no past, present or prospective interest in the property that is the subject to this report, and I have no present or prospective
personal interest in the property or bias with respect to the parties involved.
5. The opinion of value stated within this report does not result from a requirement to report a predetermined value or direction
i n value that favours the cause of the client or any related party, the attainment of a specific result, or the occurrence
of a subsequent event in order to receive the compensation and/or employment for perfoming the appraisal. The reported
value is not based on a requested minimum valuation, a specific valuation, or the need to approve a specific mortgage loan.
6. This appraisal report, its analyses and all conclusions herein, have been prepared in conformity with the requirements of the
Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice that was adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation,
with the exception of the departure provision of those Standards, which does not apply. It is acknowledged that an estimate of a
reasonable time for exposure in the open market is a condition in the definition of market value and the estimate developed is
consistent with the marketing time noted in the appropriate section of this report unless otherwise stated in the reconciliation section
7. The interior and exterior of the subject property were personally inspected on the date shown in the attached report. It is
h e r e b y certified that any apparent or known adverse conditions have been noted herein, in the subject improvements,
o n t h e s u b j e c t s i t e , o r o n a n y s i t e , wi t h i n t h e i m m e d i a t e v i c i n i t y o f t h e subject property which were apparent as of
t h e d a te of inspection and that adjustments have been made for these adverse conditions in the analysis of the
property value to the extent that market evidence was available to support them.
8. All conclusions and opinions about the real estate were personally prepared as same are set forth in the appraisal report. If
there was reliance on significant professional assistance from any individual or individuals in the performance of the appraisal
or the preparation of the appraisal report, such individual(s) have been named herein including the disclosure of specific tasks
performed by them. No authorization has been given to anyone to make a change to any item in the report; therefore, if an unauthorized
change is made to the appraisal report, no responsibility for such changes is assumed.
9. As of the date of this report, the appraiser and supervisory appraiser have fulfilled the requirements of the recertification
program, in accordance with the Bylaws and Regulations of the professional appraisal organization with which they are affiliated
and are hereby noted as designated members of such organization.

SCOPE OF THE APPRAISAL
The Scope of the Appraisal contains the necessary research and analysis to prepare a report in accordance with
its intended use. The following are comments which describe the extent of the procedures used in the collection,
confirmation and reporting of the information involved in preparing this report.
GENERAL: The scope of the appraisal encompasses the due diligence undertaken by the appraiser (consistent with
the terms of reference from the client, the purpose and intended use of the report) and the necessary research and
analysis to prepare a report in accordance with the Canadian Uniform Standards of Professional Practice (CUSPAP)
of the Appraisal Institute of Canada. The following comments describe the extent of the process of collecting,
confirming and reporting data and its analysis, describe relevant procedures and reasoning details supporting the
analysis, and provide the reason for the exclusion of any usual valuation procedures. When preparing an appraisal
for lending purposes, appraisers do not investigate if the prospective loan and applicant satisfy prudent loan
underwriting criteria. We assume no responsibility for loans made where the borrower lacks the ability or motivation
to repay the loan, or where the lender has not followed prudent lending practices. When we authorize a lender to rely
on this report, we grant such authorization subject to the lender completing a thorough due diligence investigation
that reasonably concludes that the borrower has the intention and capacity to repay the loan.
VALUATION: There are three traditional valuation methods which may be utilized to estimate the market value of
any given property: the Direct Sales Comparison Approach (DSCA), the Income Approach, and the Cost Approach
(CA). Most reliance is placed on the DSCA when valuing a single-family home as this is a good indicator of market
activity. Depending upon a wide range of factors, a particular approach aforementioned may be excluded from the
methodology applied. Furthermore, the construction cost estimates contained herein were not prepared for
insurance purposes and are invalid for that use. The CA is also not applicable when appraising strata dwellings.
ADJUSTMENT: The best available comparable sales have been selected with respect to date of sale, location, size,
age, condition, style and special features of the improvements. A larger adjustment may be deemed appropriate if
the subject property is atypical, and/or there has been a relatively low volume of recent sales to select from, and/or
from the heterogeneous nature of the local residential real estate market. The integrity of the comparable sales is
maintained by reasonable and appropriate adjustments. If any adjustments are made, the comparable sales still
accurately reflect the market value estimate for the subject.
DATA GATHERING: The analysis set out in this report relied on written and verbal information obtained from the
following sources including but not limited to: personal inspection and photography of the subject property;
Matrix/MLS system of the Victoria Real Estate Board (VREB); exclusive or private sales data; cost manuals;
contractor's estimates; building residual analyses; in-office files; on-site inspection; information from owner(s),
realtor(s), and/or builder(s); maps, site plans, surveys, measurement reports, certificates of title, and previous
appraisal(s); British Columbia Assessment; and municipal authorities. The analysis set out in this report relied on
the aforementioned information sources, which we assume reliable. Unless otherwise stated herein, we did not
verify client supplied information, which we assumed to be correct.
TITLE: A title search was not performed and the affects of any easements, rights of way, or other encumbrances
were not investigated and are beyond the scope of this report.
TECHNICAL: We did not complete technical investigations, such as: a detailed inspection or engineering review of
the structure, roof or mechanical systems; an environmental review of the property; a site or building survey; and an
investigation of soil bearing qualities.
SITE: For the purpose of the appraisal, the site size is assumed to be correct. The subject improvements are
assumed to be constructed within the boundaries of the site. A current legal survey should be obtained to confirm
the location of the same and site size. Should any of the improvements not be fully located within the confines of
the subject site and site size found otherwise, the value estimate could be subject to change.
MEASUREMENTS: All measurements obtained from exterior sources, such as, but not limited to building plans,
professional measurement companies, surveys, and realtors are assumed to be correct. Should this information not
be correct, the value estimate of value could be subject to change.
TIME/DATE OF SALE: Every effort has been made to secure comparable sales within the 90 day period
immediately preceding the effective date of this report. Comparables selected will reflect sales deemed most
comparable to the subject property. If the time frame is expanded, this has been done to recite sales which have
characteristics most similar to the subject, and to provide the most accurate indicators of value; this being a
common and necessary appraisal practice in the area.
UFFI: Upon inspection there were no apparent signs of UFFI installation. This appraisal assumes none is present.
FIRE, SMOKE, CARBON MONOXIDE EQUIPMENT: The appraiser did not inspect the premises for the detection or
condition of smoke or fire detection systems, or for the presence of carbon monoxide detectors. The appraiser takes
no responsibility whatsoever or warrants any compliance for the lack of or condition of detection devices that may be
located on the premises.
DIGITAL SIGNATURE: This appraisal report may have been signed with a password-protected digital signature.
Electronically affixing a signature to a report carries the same level of authenticity and responsibility as an ink
signature on a paper copy report. The appraiser certifies that safeguards for the protection and affixation of the
signature dictated by the CUSPAP have been observed.
DIGITAL IMAGES: Digitized images in the report are unaltered from their original likeness. Digital images may have
been modified for formatting, brightness or resolution to reduce file size or enhance readability. Images of
comparables are assumed to be correct.
