Walgreens -615 W Main St | Norman, OK 80013 ™ WALGREENS 615 W Main St | Norman, OK 80013 OFFERING MEMORANDUM LISTED BY Conrad Sarreal Associate Vice President DIRECT +1 (214) 692-2847 MOBILE +1 (626) 230-1006 [email protected] License No. 01982875 (CA) Kyle Matthews Broker of Record License No. 180759 (OK) TABLE OF CONTENTS 7 EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW 8 FINANCIAL OVERVIEW 10 TENANT OVERVIEW 11 AREA OVERVIEW 615 W Main St | Norman, OK OFFERING MEMORANDUM EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS • Booming University Town – Subject property sits on a signalized corner that is less than a mile from the University of Oklahoma (30,000+ students). OU is one of the most popular sports-driven universities as it continually earns top national rankings across numerous sports. In particular, the Sooners football program has earned 7 national championships and produced 7 Heisman Trophy winners among many other NFL greats. The program generates around $160 Million annually, making them the 7th highest producing football program in the country. Gaylord Family- Oklahoma Memorial Stadium seats 86,000+ fans and hosts some of the most-watched games of the season, facing off against universities such as Texas, Texas Tech, TCU, UCLA, Florida, LSU, and Alabama. • Top Tier Performer – This store has reported consistent sales significantly above the reported national average. These sales make the store likely one of the strongest performers on the market. This store is open 24 hours, so OU students and the nearly 92,000 residents within 3 miles can take advantage of Walgreens’ retail component, including alcohol. • Attractive Real Estate – The 30,000+ OU students and visiting sports fans from across the country generate a high amount traffic in the area. Real estate within close proximity to such universities typically drives up the demand among retailers, allowing landlords to more easily re-lease or repurpose them in the future. • Essential Retailer and E-Commerce Resistant Tenant - As an e-commerce resistant concept and essential retailer, Walgreens is an ideal tenant to own in through all cycles of the economy. The government deemed Walgreens an essential business in March when countless other retailers were ordered to shut their doors. Walgreens experienced a 26% surge in sales in March 2020 and continues to exceed expectations. • Favorably Large Lot Size – Subject property sits on a large 2+ acre signalized corner lot, offering plenty of land to re-purpose in the future. Since many single tenant retailers occupy less than an acre of land, 2+ acres has even has room for possibly 2 tenants. • Freeway Accessible – The I-35 which services an average of 90,000 cars per day and connects Oklahoma City to Dallas-Fort Worth is less than 2 miles from the subject property. 4 | OFFERING MEMORANDUM ANDREWS PARK NEIGHBORHOOD PARK WITH A PLAYGROUND, SPLASH PAD, SKATE AREA, PAVED PATHS & AN AMPHITHEATER.

Reeves Cooperative Institute for Mesoscale Meteorological Studies, University of Oklahoma and NOAA/OAR/National Severe Storms Laboratory 1. INTRODUCTION related to the generation of supercooled liquid water (Hogan et al. 2002), 4) regions The classification of cold-season of high ZDR and KDP that are believed to be precipitation type at the surface is associated with dendritic growth and/or ice complicated by the broad range of crystal generation (Moisseev et al. 2008; precipitation types that might result from Andric et al. 2009; Kennedy and Rutledge processes that occur below the height of the 2011), and 5) an apparent tendency for ZDR radar’s lowest elevation sweep. For in the snow region to increase upon the example, a deep layer of subfreezing air onset of storm decay as regions of dry, near the surface might lead to either a aggregated snow (characterized by low ZDR) complete refreezing of drops (ice pellets) or are replaced by pristine ice crystals refreezing upon contact with the surface (characterized by high ZDR).

The partnership between the emergency managers and NWS not only 2 Digital Services continues strong, but continues to grow. With technology advancing at what seems the speed of light, availability of 3 Disaster products containing weather information has grown exponentially. Emergency Management managers are receiving volumes of information on the Internet, ranging from traditional text products to impact hazard graphics. 5 Dissemination In presentations and conversations here at NEMA, it is clear our partners need us to shift our emphasis from products to services.
