               We are convinced that the lease adjustment and adjustments             
          for motivated sellers are well founded and shall apply a positive           
          adjustment to LB3 of 10 percent and shall apply a positive                  
          adjustment to LB4 and LB5 of 10 percent.                                    
               After applying the adjustments we find proper to the                   
          comparables, the adjusted price per square foot for the five                
          comparables is as follows:

               Based upon our review of all the valuation evidence, giving            
          due consideration to our observation at trial of the witnesses              
          for both parties and considering their testimony and the expert             
          reports, we conclude that the Litton building was worth $15 per             
          square foot for a total value of $723,225.                                  
               C.   The Parcel of 30.3 Acres                                          
               Mr. Cantrell used the development approach to appraise the             
          parcel of 30.3 acres.  He determined the fair market value of the           
          parcel of 30.3 acres as of December 15, 1992, to be $605,000.               
          According to Mr. Cantrell, the development approach, which                  
          discounts the income stream from lot sales over a period of time,           
          is the equivalent of an income approach.  As we have previously
