Property Overview
The Village of Channahon is strategically located on the banks of the Des Plaines River and at
the crossroads of I-55 and I-80. Since 2000, the Village population has grown by more than
70% to nearly 13,000. The area boasts median income of $86,326.
Despite this rapid growth, there is still ample opportunity for commercial development in Chan-
nahon. Channahon residents desire a wider range of retail uses, service providers and dining
options within the Village.
In addition to commercial opportunities, the Village’s strategic position within the region makes it
a desirable location for industrial uses and regional attractions. Four Class I railroads traverse
the area and Channahon is directly served by the CSX and CN railroads. The Village is also in
close proximity to the new CenterPoint Intermodal facilities serviced by BNSF and Union Pacific.
The many advantages of a Channahon location include:
• Just 45 miles southwest of Chicago’s Loop
• Within an hour’s drive of both O’Hare and Midway Airports
• Served by Interstates 80 and 55, with interchanges at I-80 and I-55, I-55 and Route 6, and
I-55 and Bluff Road
• Adjacent to the Illinois
Waterway System
• Freight rail connec-
tions to local and
regional carriers
• Award winning park
districts, school dis-
tricts, and Top 100
golf courses

Property Overview
The Channahon Town Center, located at Route 6 and Bluff Road, is designed to provide
for an active, well-rounded, attractive and flexible village core. It is intended to be the vi-
brant heart of the community.
Its master plan includes shops and parks, offices and entertainment, a government center,
and a church and school. In addition, the plan includes a variety of housing types. The
new Channahon Municipal Center is located within the Town Center. The newly construct-
ed Navajo Drive extends south from Cherokee Ridge subdivision through the Town Center
to Route 6/Bluff Road.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Recipient agrees as follows:
1. Recipient acknowledges that all documents, analyses, records, statements, etc. (the “Confidential
Information”) provided by Owner or its broker, National Golf & Marina Properties Group of Coldwell Banker Com-
mercial NRT (“Owner’s Broker”) are confidential and proprietary to Owner. The term Confidential Information does

er agreement or obligation of confidentiality, or (ii) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result
of a disclosure by Recipient or those to whom Recipient has provided Confidential Information (Confidential Infor-
mation shall not be deemed to be generally available to the public or in the public domain merely because any part
of any Confidential Information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components,
or combinations thereof are now known or become known to the public), or (iii) becomes available to Recipient on
a non-confidential basis from a source other than Owner or its agents or advisors, provided that such source is
not known by Recipient to be bound by an agreement or other obligation of confidentiality. Recipient shall keep all
such information confidential and shall not, except as may be required by law, regulation or legal process binding
upon Recipient, disclose, summarize or otherwise provide any or all of the Confidential Information in any manner
without the prior written authorization of Owner, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement. Recipient may dis-
close the Confidential Information to the Interested Party, provided such Interested Party has previously executed
and delivered to Owner a confidentiality agreement in the form of this Agreement. Recipient shall not photocopy or
reproduce the Confidential Information in any manner.
2. Recipient may use any or all of the Confidential Information only for the purpose of its analysis of the pos-
sible purchase of the Property. If Recipient is an Interested Party, it may summarize any or all of the Confidential In-
formation only in that connection. Recipient shall not use any of the Confidential Information for any other purpose.

countants, potential lenders, lawyers, agents and other advisors. In either event, Recipient shall give a copy of this
Agreement to all persons to whom it gives access to the Confidential Information and shall inform all such persons
that the Confidential Information is confidential and proprietary to Owner, and the Confidential Information must
be maintained as confidential, and that none of the Confidential Information may be disclosed without prior written
authorization by Owner.

CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT
4. If the Property is not sold to Recipient’s Interested Party, Recipient shall promptly return to Owner
all Confidential Information it received at Owner’s or Owner’s Broker’s request. If Recipient is an Interested Party
and Recipient determines that it is not interested in purchasing the Property, Recipient shall promptly return to
Owner all Confidential Information it received at Owner’s or Owner’s Broker’s request.
5. Owner and Owner’s Broker make no representation or warranty about the accuracy or complete-
ness of any Confidential Information. Recipient releases and holds Owner and Owner’s Broker harmless from and
against any loss or damage Recipient may sustain due to its reliance on any of the Confidential Information. If
Recipient is an Interested Party, the provisions of this Agreement shall not be amended, merged into or otherwise
modified by any subsequent agreement entered into between Recipient and Owner or any instrument executed by
Owner for Recipient’s benefit unless such agreement or instrument expressly states so.
6. If any party believes that the unauthorized disclosure of any or all of the Confidential Information is likely
to occur, Recipient shall take all reasonable measures, and shall support any reasonable measures by Owner, to
prevent such disclosure. If an unauthorized disclosure of any or all of the Confidential Information has occurred,
Recipient shall not interfere with any effort by Owner to pursue legal and equitable remedies available in result of
the unauthorized disclosure.
7. It is understood and acknowledged that unauthorized release of any or all of the Confidential Information would
cause immediate and irreparable harm to Owner that could not be repaired and for which Owner could not be
fully compensated by money damages. Recipient agrees that Owner may obtain injunctive relief to prevent or limit
such unauthorized disclosure, and may also pursue any other remedies available under law or equity in result of
an alleged or reasonably anticipated breach of this Agreement. Recipient agrees to pay any damages incurred by
Owner as a result of Recipient’s breach of this Agreement, including but not limited to court costs and reasonable
attorneys’ fees.
8. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia,
without regard to principles of choice of law or conflicts of law. This Agreement shall be binding upon Recipient’s
