DuVall, MAI Casey O. Jones, MAI April 13, 2021 Omar Sandoval, Esq. Woodruff, Spradlin & Smart 555 Ant on Boulevard, Suite 1200 Costa Mesa, CA 92626 Re: Appraisal of the Willowick Golf Course Property Dear Mr. Sandoval: In accordance with your request and authorization, I have formed an opinion of the market value of the fee interest in the 101.5-acre Willowick Golf Course, located in the City of Santa Ana, California. As the following Appraisal Report will present, my judgment of the highest and best use of the subject property is for development to a master-planned community. This appraisal is based upon the extraordinary assumption that the utility and value of the appraised property is subject to the Surplus Land Act and Government Code Government Code 54233, which states that if 10 or more residential units are developed, then 15 percent of the total number of units must be dedicated to affordable housing. The date of value of this appraisal is February 24, 2021. As a result of my inspection of the subject property, investigation of various comparable data, market studies and valuation analyses I concluded that, as of February 24, 2021, the market value of the appraised property was $90,000,000. Market Value Conclusion: $90,000,000 George Hamilton Jones, Inc.

    Oral History Interview with Thomas C. Blum and W.W. “Bill” Knitz Date: Saturday, January 28, 2012 Interviewer: Robert David Breton Location: Mission Viejo Library Mission Viejo, California This is a transcript of a video-recorded interview conducted by the Mission Viejo Library and funded by a Library Services and Technology Act grant administered by the California State Library. The initial, verbatim transcript of the interview was sent to the interviewee to give him or her an opportunity to check it for typographical errors, to correct any gross inaccuracies of recollection, and to make minor emendations. This is the edited version of the original transcript, but the original video recording of the interview has not been altered. The reader should remember that this is a transcript of the spoken, rather than the written, word. The interview must be read with an awareness that different persons’ memories about an event will often differ. The reader should take into account that the answers may include personal opinions from the unique perspective of the interviewee and that the responses offered are partial, deeply involved, and certainly irreplaceable. A limited number of visual and audio data from this copyrighted collection of oral histories may be used for personal study, private scholarship or research, and scholastic teaching under the provisions of United States Code, Title 17, Section 107 (Section 107), which allows limited “fair use” of copyrighted materials. Such “fair use” is limited to not-for-profit, non-commercial, educational purposes and does not apply to large amounts or “substantial” portions in relation to the transcript as a whole, within the meaning of Section 107.

    “Take care of the land, and the land will take care of you.” Marguerite (“Daisy”) O’Neill Throughout the decades, the O’Neill/Avery/Moiso family has remained steadfastly grounded to these words, keeping intact the remaining 23,000 acres of their family ranch known as Rancho Mission Viejo. Today, Rancho Mission Viejo is the last working ranch in Orange County, home to acres of citrus groves, miles of protected creeks and canyons within The Reserve at Rancho Mission Viejo, and soon, the final community taking shape amidst this splendor.

Moiso President and Chief Executive Officer 1 Ranch History “The O’Neill family’s place in the history of Orange County and the state of California is marked by generations of enlightened community leadership. At Ranch Mission Viejo, the O’Neills keep alive the spirit and traditions of early California farming and cattle ranching.
