MARKET SUMMARY

HILLSBORO, TX

Hillsboro is a city in and the county seat of Hill County in Central Texas. The population was 8,456 at the 2010 census.

Hillsboro, located on Interstate 35 where I-35E and I-35W split south of the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, is the primary center for trade and commerce in Hill County. It is located almost midway between the Metroplex and Waco, and is the gateway to the popular Lake Whitney. There are many antique stores located downtown, and a popular outlet mall is located along the Interstate, surrounded by numerous hotels and motels.

The city is known for its abundance of restored Victorian homes and its historic county courthouse, which on January

1, 1993 was heavily damaged by an electrical fire. It was rebuilt, courtesy of donations from around the world and two concerts sponsored by Hill County native Willie Nelson. The courthouse won the Downtown Association’s 1999 award for “Best Restoration”. The renovation sparked an interest in restoring Texas’s historic courthouses. The Hill County courthouse is eight miles from Willie Nelson’s hometown, Abbott.

CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

Vitorino Group hereby advises all prospective purchasers of Net Leased property as follows:

The information contained in this Marketing Brochure has been obtained from sources we believe to be reliable. However, the Vitorino Group has not and will not verify any of this information, nor has the Vitorino Group conducted any investigation regarding these matters. The Vitorino Group makes no guarantee, warranty or representation whatsoever about the accuracy or completeness of any information provided.

As the Buyer of a net leased property, it is the Buyer’s responsibility to independently confirm the accuracy and completeness of all material information before completing any purchase. This Marketing Brochure is not a substitute for your thorough due diligence investigation of this investment opportunity. The Vitorino Group expressly denies any obligation to conduct a due diligence examination of this Property for Buyer.

Any projections, opinions, assumptions or estimates used in this Marketing Brochure are for example only and do not represent the current or future performance of this property. The value of a net leased property to you depends on factors that should be evaluated by you and your tax, financial and legal advisors. Buyer and Buyer’s tax, financial, legal, and construction advisors should conduct a careful, independent investigation of any net leased property to determine to your satisfaction with the suitability of the property for your needs.

Like all real estate investments, this investment carries significant risks. Buyer and Buyer’s legal and financial advisors must request and carefully review all legal and financial documents related to the property and tenant. While the tenant’s past performance at this or other locations is an important consideration, it is not a guarantee of future success. Similarly, the lease rate for some properties, including newly-constructed facilities or newly-acquired locations, may be set based on a tenant’s projected sales with little or no record of actual performance, or comparable rents for the area. Returns are not guaranteed; the tenant and any guarantors may fail to pay the lease rent or property taxes, or may fail to comply with other material terms of the lease; cash flow may be interrupted in part or in whole due to market, economic, environmental or other conditions. Regardless of tenant history and lease guarantees, Buyer is responsible for conducting his/her own investigation of all matters affecting the intrinsic value of the property and the value of any long-term lease, including the likelihood of locating a replacement tenant if the current tenant should default or abandon the property, and the lease terms that Buyer may be able to negotiate with a potential replacement tenant considering the location of the property, and Buyer’s legal ability to make alternate use of the property.

By accepting this Marketing Brochure you agree to release The Vitorino Group and hold it harmless from any kind of claim, cost, expense, or liability arising out of your investigation and/or purchase of this net leased property.

Net Lease Disclaimer

Before working with a real estate broker, you should know that the duties of a broker depend on whom the broker represents. If you are a prospective seller or landlord (owner) or a prospective buyer or tenant (buyer), you should know that the broker who lists the property for sale or lease is the owner’s agent. A broker who acts as a subagent represents the owner in cooperation with the listing broker. A broker

who acts as a buyer’s agent represents the buyer. A broker may act as an intermediary between the parties if the parties consent in writing. A broker can assist you in locating a property, preparing a contract or lease, or obtaining financing without representing you. A broker is obligated by law to treat you honestly.
