 Sonnenblick-Eichner Company Arranges $24 million of First Mortgage
Financing for the Surfsand Resort in Cannon Beach, Oregon
.
 
LOS ANGELES, CA � November 28, 2006 - Sonnenblick-Eichner Company announced today that it has arranged $24,000,000 of first mortgage financing for the Surfsand Resort, Cannon Beach�s premier full service resort located on the beach along Oregon�s northern coast.  Proceeds from the loan will be used to completely renovate and redevelop the property.  The 5-year interim loan provides for interest-only payments for the first three years of the loan.  The financing was provided by an affiliate of a Wall Street investment bank.  
 
Upon completion of the redevelopment, the resort will offer 106 luxury guestrooms with amenities that include 5,800 square feet of meeting and banquet space, a restaurant with a lounge and bar, a spa, a fitness center, and an indoor pool.  The hotel is located within 90 minutes of Portland and approximately 3 hours from Seattle by car. Cannon Beach is the closest recreational beach resort destination to Seattle. 
 
Elliot Eichner, a Principal of Sonnenblick-Eichner Company commented, �Despite the fact that part of the redevelopment was ground-up construction, we were able to structure a loan with a minimal guarantee that burns off upon completion of construction.  The loan also provides flexibility for pre-payment, which will allow the borrower to access the permanent loan market when the renovation is complete.�
 
Aaron Lerner, a Senior Associate of Sonnenblick-Eichner Company added, �Due to the tremendous amount of equity in the property and given the borrower�s long term ownership and management of the hotel, we were able to get the lender comfortable with financing 100 percent of the capital required to complete the project.�
