WOODSON <br />UNIVERSITY <br />May 6, 2011 <br />H. Jay White, Sr. <br />Chairman, Cabarrus County Commissioners <br />P.O. Box 707 <br />Concord, NC 28026 <br />Chairman White: <br />Please consider this document as certification of our relationship with Wharton Gladden <br />and Company, LLC, a private equity boutique firm located in Greensboro, North Carolina; where <br />the managing director is Mr. Algenon Cash. The firm focuses on serving the small to middle <br />commercial real estate market. Their team of capital market experts has an extensive background <br />in business finance and specializes in structured financial solutions. <br />Wharton Gladden has successfully identified the capital the university requires for the <br />renovation for the Old Bethel School property. The firm has built its business by developing <br />close relationships with both lenders and borrowers, which enables them to understand the needs <br />of both, and to know how to build a relationship that will mutually benefit both. <br />Through the course of our discussions we have identified an individual, through Mr. <br />Wayne McDonald; with the financial capacity, vision, and construction expertise to complete the <br />renovation project. Mr. McDonald has completed much similar renovation and rehabilitation <br />projects of in both Forsyth and Guilford counties. Conservative projections estimate that <br />approximately fifty to one hundred temporary jobs will be created through the course of the <br />renovation. <br />Should you have any further questions please feel free to contact Mr. Cash or Mr. <br />McDonald or myself. Dr. A.L. Fleming can provide the necessary contact information. <br />Very Respectfully, <br />t '�4 4 <br />016 4J <br />The Reverend Malcolm J.
