Re: The Paxton Site Eligibility and Agreement, Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, Utah

Dear Mr. Bastian:

The Utah Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) has completed a review of the
Voluntary Cleanup Program Application (Application) for the property known as The Paxton (Site)
located at 203 to 225 West Paxton Avenue, Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, Utah. Based on the
information included with the Application, the DEQ accepts the Site into the Voluntary Cleanup
Program (VCP).

Enclosed with this acceptance letter is a standardized Voluntary Cleanup Agreement
(Agreement) that the DEQ is prepared to sign. In order to effectively operate the VCP with the
resources available, the DEQ has standardized the Agreement in order to avoid negotiations on a
site-specific basis. The Agreement is simply designed to facilitate a relationship between the parties
involved in the interest of characterizing and remediating impacted property in a timely and efficient
manner.

Please note that the VCP is entirely voluntary and, as such the Paxton Project LLC may
withdraw from the program or terminate the Agreement at any time and for any reason in a manner
consistent with the statute.

The Environmental Assessment submitted in conjunction with the VCP Application will be
reviewed. The DEQ's comments on the document will be submitted under separate cover in the
future.

It is requested that the enclosed Agreement be signed as soon as possible such that the
investigation and remediation of the Site may proceed as quickly and efficiently as possible. The
Agreement has been sent to you via our electronic signature process.

Should you have any questions regarding this letter, the Agreement or the voluntary cleanup
process, please contact Allison Stanley at [phone].

Sincerely,

Brent H. Everett, Director
Division of Environmental Response and Remediation
