AS YOU KNOW, MANY EXCITING INITIATIVES ARE UNDERWAY AT BOCA Pointe Country Club. These initiatives will ensure that our Club remains vital and desirable and that all of us continue to enjoy an unsurpassed country club experience in both the short and long term.

A key initiative - Community Membership - was overwhelmingly approved by a vote of our members last January. Under this plan, only those who have been members of the Club for at least 10 years would be able to resign, unless they moved.

As we continue to move Community Membership forward in anticipation of a final vote early next season, the Board is listening carefully to all of your input with regard to this important issue.

Even though we have tried to assure all of the members that there would not be any large capital assessments as a result of Community Membership, many of you have told us that you are still concerned on this point and that you are afraid that, under the current resignation program, you would end up being “locked in” to your membership.

We want you to know that your Board is listening to you. We have heard your concerns and have taken the necessary steps to eliminate them. That is why I am so happy to bring you wonderful news regarding a vote you will soon be taking, via mail, to change the Club’s current resignation program.

The Club’s intention is that current members will be able to resign at any time. Therefore, upon approval by a vote of our members, the following resignation program will be adopted:

A. Current resident members on the day Community Membership is implemented will have the right to resign at any time, effective at the end of the then-current membership year, regardless of how long they have been members. Board Message B. New resident members who join after the effective implementation date of Community Membership may resign after 10 years of membership, effective at the end of the then-current membership year. C. All current and new non-resident members may resign at any time, effective at the end of the then- current membership year.

In each instance of resignation, the member’s account must be current and the resignation will end any future years’ dues obligations.

You can expect to see a ballot in your mailbox on this issue very soon.

We hope that this new resignation program makes you even more enthusiastic about Community Membership and all of the wonderful effects it will have on Boca Pointe Country Club!

Sincerely, Aggie Winthrop Aggie Winthrop Chairman, Board of Governors

3 MembershipMembership new membership programs

WE HAVE SEVERAL NEW MEMBERSHIP PROGRAMS TO PROVIDE OUR MEMBERS NEW OPPORTUNITIES TO transfer their memberships, add family members to their equity and even make a little money. Through our member referral incentive program, since December 2003 our members and realtors have shared more than $104,950 awarded for new member referrals, resulting in over 197 new equity members for our Club. Call the membership department at (561) 864-8539 for more information. Keep up the good work. LEGACY PROGRAM All members are permitted to transfer their equities at no cost to any family member of lineal relations and their spouses (i.e. children, grandchildren, parents and grandparents). All classes of membership are eligible for this program. ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP PROGRAM Who is eligible: Lineal relations of equity members and their spouses (i.e., children, grandchildren, parents and grandparents). Who is ineligible: Any former member who has relinquished their membership or has left the Club not in good standing. Membership category options: Up to and including the membership category of the equity member. Dues requirements: First 2 years – 50% of the elected membership category dues. Second 2 years – 60% of the elected membership category dues. Fifth year – 75% of the elected membership category dues. After Fifth year – 100% of the elected membership category dues. No Capital Charge – No Assessments. Other fees & obligations: One-time $300 (+ 6% sales tax) Administrative Fee – Yearship from which it was derived. The equity member is not in good standing. The Club reserves the right to terminate the program at any time. Program Cap: Associate Memberships will be included in the total equity membership and golf membership caps. Financial Responsibility: Associate members will receive their own membership account. The equity member will ultimately be responsible to the Club for the financial obligations of the Associate member. MEMBER INCENTIVE REFERRAL PROGRAM The Club will issue a $500 “account credit” to an equity member who is the first person to refer a prospective member who then purchases an equity membership within one year. For a second referral the member will receive a $750 “account credit” and for the third and subsequent referrals the member will receive a $1000 “account credit.” All referrals must occur within a 365 day period in order to be eligible for the upgraded credit. The “account credit” will be applied to the purchase of all goods and services including

Membership food and beverage, but will not be applied to charges for dues or assessments. There is no limit to the number of prospects that a member can refer under this policy. An equity purchase in connection with a sale of a Boca Pointe home is not eligible for the referral incentive. In all cases the referring member must escort the prospective member to the membership office. Both referring party and prospect must sign a form acknowledging that the person present is the referring person.
