COMMUNITY OF OWNERS OF FARO PARK PHASES 1 & 2

COMMENTS TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2006/2007 AND THE PROPOSED BUDGET FOR 2007/2008

The result at year end is a deficit of € 4.434 after having transferred the approved amount of € 5.000 to the garden project. This compares to a budget surplus of € 5.188 and the deviation is mainly due to two reasons:

o Several water leaks have been suffered in the domestic water distribution system on both phases, accounting for expenses of about € 6.000;

o The swimming pool was repaired and the cost of this and the related water losses exceeded what we had forecast in the budget by more than € 3.300.

We have claimed the expenses for the repairs to the water leaks from our insurance company, but have not received any indemnification as of yet. The claim is not included in our balance for reasons of prudent accounting and will be posted as an income as and when this is received. The value of the water lost is not covered by the policy. Furthermore, one must bear in mind that the repairs carried out to the swimming pool were provisional only and a thorough inspection of the swimming pool must be carried out to determine the nature of the damage and what further action should be taken.

Nearly all owners are now up to date with payments and legal action is only being taken against one owner for ordinary fees and water and against 5 owners for the so-called back water. I am grateful to those owners agreeing to pay by direct debit as this greatly simplifies the administration, but if you have not yet set up a direct debit arrangement with us, I would appreciate it if you could consider doing this.

For the coming year we have foreseen an increased amount for general maintenance to ensure that we maintain the estate in a good condition. Owners will be aware of wear and tear affecting their own properties and equipment after years of use. Our communal elements are similarly affected, and we must be committed to carrying out all necessary maintenance to maintain standards. The street lights need a thorough revision and I hope that this can commence later this month. The faulty street lights, predominantly on phase 2, in the past year are not due to lack of attention from the maintenance company, but due to the broken down condition of the installations.

If you have any questions regarding the accounts that you would like to raise at the AGM, I would be grateful if you would kindly forward these to me no later than three full working days before the meeting, so that answers can be researched.

Playa Blanca, 14th September 2007.

Anne Head 65 Faro Park Phase 2

Tel: 928 349012 E-mail: anne.head@lanzadata.com

I wish to offer my services to the community, and will put myself forward as a candidate for the position of President for phases 1 & 2 at the annual general meeting of owners on the 3rd. October 2007

Being a resident owner for over 4 years; this last year representing phase 2 on behalf of the owners to the board, I now feel responsibly qualified to execute to the best of my ability, the serious duties of a President.

Over this last year, there have been numerous occasions the board have been made aware by me, of irregularities to the normal running of the community, most particularly the poor standard of maintenance and standards in general.

We as owners should all have an aim to attain, and maintain a high standard within our community, to enhance our general surroundings, to work together for a more harmonious community, this will increase the desire of prospective purchasers to buy on our phases, and for sellers a genuine realisation of the value of properties.

I would value your support in my quest for the presidency of our community, and once elected would work tirelessly on your behalf in achieving all of our aspirations.

I thank you,

Anne Head
