WHEREAS, the Fulton County Industrial Development Agency (the “Agency”) owns certain property in the Town of Perth commonly referred to as the Tryon Technology Park; and

WHEREAS, on November 9, 2021, the Agency approved a contract for the sale of the following real property (the “Property”) to WE Acquisitions LLC, or its designee, (the “Company”):

Portion of 164.-5-1     236.58+/- acres (as surveyed) located along County Road 158 and County Highway 107 in the Town of Perth, as more specifically described in said; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to section 6(c) of the Agency’s Disposition of Property Guidelines, the Property may be sold by negotiation and for less than fair market value if the disposal is intended to further the economic development interests of the Agency; and

WHEREAS, the appraisal procured by the Agency of the Property determined its fair market value to be $5,900,000.00; and

WHEREAS, the negotiated purchase price of the Property is $5,800,000.00; and

WHEREAS, after due deliberation thereon, the Agency has determined that the disposal of the Property intends to further the economic development interests of the Agency, whereby (a) the Property has been on the market for considerable amount of time with no meaningful interested purchasers and (b) the sale of the Property will return the Property to the tax rolls.

NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby

RESOLVED that after due deliberation thereon, the Agency has determined that such a sale, at a fraction below the appraised value is justified as the development of this Property and the return of the tax rolls will dramatically benefit the Town and County, as the purchaser has the monetary resources necessary to improve the Property, thereby creating new job opportunities to the region; and

RESOLVED that the Agency deems the sale as described herein and as set forth in the purchase and sale agreement to be in the best interests of the Town of Perth and County of Fulton and intended to benefit the economic interests of the Town of Perth and County of Fulton; and

RESOLVED that the Agency hereby approves of the Explanatory Statement as presented at this meeting and authorizes its delivery as set forth in Section 2897(6) of the Public Authorities Law; and

RESOLVED that this Resolution shall take effect immediately.

The foregoing resolution was thereupon declared duly adopted.
