                                       - 52 -                                         

          and amortization and EBITDA).  In determining the respective                
          price-to-earnings ratios and price-to-cash flow ratios of Marrero           
          Land, Mr. Stryker gave the greatest weight to the respective                
          indicated values based on its latest year earnings and cash flow            
          (determined both as net income plus depreciation and amortization           
          and EBITDA).  With respect to the price-to-tangible book value              
          ratios, Mr. Stryker concluded that the comparable public compa-             
          nies that he selected sold at between 74.2 percent and 666.3                
          percent of tangible book value.  According to Mr. Stryker,                  
          Marrero Land's rates of returns on equity of 8.7 percent for the            
          latest year and median of 12.8 percent for the latest five years            
          did not compare favorably with the rates of those public compa-             
          nies.  As a result, Mr. Stryker determined that a ratio of price-           
          to-tangible book value of 100 percent was applicable to Marrero             
          Land's common stock as of the valuation date.                               
               The indicated values that Mr. Stryker determined on the                
          basis of an examination of price-to-earning ratios, price-to-cash           
          flow ratios, and price-to-tangible book value ratios resulted in            
          the following indicated values per share of stock of Marrero Land           
          as of the valuation date:
