Paul

One of the big inducement of the deal was the Great Life Lease for the record. Everyone is wondering why you were so fast to terminate that deal?  

I need you to look at this deal as a Broker. Technically you are a Broker for the stockholders. As you read this think about what adds value to the stock and good will of WPG. The more personal you make this I promise you the less you look out for the shareholder. Today I’m your broker weather we like it or not.

My instructions regarding Freezing Rolls, LLC in regard the Mutual Lease with West Ridge Mall LLC are as follows:

  1. Move our location the Vacant space that was previously Pizza Pub.
  2. Adjust the square Footage to reflect the actual square footage of Pizza Pub.
  3. Our client will is offering the same minimum rent and % rent as in the lease.
  4. Our Client will pay the differences utilities.  
  5. Freezing Rolls will pay $4K towards the Plans to relocate the Security Office.

I cringed today on the phone when you told me the complexion of the Mall was going to look different in one year. That is exactly what Chris Tilly said in November of 2013. The only reason I talked John Parker in to coming to the mall was the representations of Tilly sell the fact he was moving to Topeka and he was Mr. Local leasing guy.  Your talk of the big deals are like the guy selling on ticket at a $1K instead of 1K at a $1. Simon is all about the big deals. Even Dale Anderson talks of how high handed the mall behaves as he won’t make time to let our prospects in the space. Local leasing is the key to the future. Here is the factoid of the hour. NO ONE wants to deal with West Ridge Mall, LLC. Newsflash you can’t blame Henry McClure. Henry is NOT being unreasonable giving away a Pizza Pub. What worries me most you are NOT trying to give it away either.  You are paying Dave Thompson to go to the Food court?  Others claim they have never been offered the deal.

As Amy Jonas letter only allows me to communicate with you this creates a lease compliance issue as it relates to the legality of notices.   I’m trusting you are sending this to your Lawyer as I requested.

You are totally boggling my mind.  I just left the doctors office and am heading home. 

I’ll review thoroughly tomorrow morning and forward to Amy and Chris. 

I should be able to get back to you tomorrow

Paul for the Record.

This email serves as Official Notice that Pizza Pub has brought forth a viable tenant to replace our Lease at West Ridge Mall. – you said this morning you wanted me to send this again. Normally I would copy Chris Bailey due to the fact Amy Jonas sent a letter saying if Henry McClure contacts anyone but you it is harassment.

Ryan or John I would forward this to Chris Bailey so NO one at Washington Prime can say “we never knew” ??

Let the record also show that David Thompson was never made aware for Pizza Pub being available.  He will be a big deal if he ever gets his settlement he boasts about. Furthermore he said he was getting $8k from the mall to go the the Food Court.  If he qualifies to got to the food court why not Pizza Pub? David mentioned hatred for me. That is really not great feedback.

Zach Haney – he mentioned today that the mall was only going to help him take the food court location.

Mitigation of damages – it is obvious the Mall is not helping find a replacement – All of my advertising is to call you directly and I have NO idea what you are doing to NOT help us.

Reasons to do Freezing Rolls in Pizza Pub.

The damages are mitigated.

You save hundreds of thousands of dollars from the jump NOT relocation the food court.

Freezing Rolls will pay $4k for the plans prepared to move the security office. I will ask John Parker to make up the other $4k. So you are made whole for the loss of plans.

Rent will start in 30 days of paper work of the date we start construction.  We are willing to start construction today because it takes and average of 8.67 month to get a lease done.

Freezing Rolls is not going to take the original space. Please review the following reasons why that space is unacceptable and why you are going to lose the Freezing Rolls deal.


 1.  Freezing roll has received ZERO notices via email or in writing about the about the progress of the project to relocate the security office. They have never been notified of any structure construction plan to relocate the Security office.
 2.  The mall is so much weaker for the day the lease was signed. More store have closed and the location is not worth investing the capital.
 3.  They are worried about getting the approval to add a patio and the drainage issues have never been formally explained in writing.
 4.  They feel uncertain the mall will allow an exterior storefront.
 5.  Foot traffic in the mall seems way off.
 6.  Victoria’s Secret is not their customer. These ladies are all trying to fit in to smaller underwear. This is like selling beer in a AA meeting.

You were going to cancel their lease – Ok they are in default?

How much is the Mall willing to invest to SUE Freezing Rolls for non-preforming?

This is what we call the “rope a dope”

You keep asking me to send you email and you do nothing.

I want formal notice from WPG what you are going to with these two deals.
