NEWS RELEASE

MOISON INVESTMENT COMPANY - EAST BAY GROUP ANNOUNCES NAME CHANGE TO PREMIER APARTMENT ADVISORS

Alameda, California. Richard Knutson and John Leyvas, Jr., principals of Moison Investment Company - East Bay Group, announce the re-flagging of the company as Premier Apartment Advisors, a boutique real estate brokerage dedicated to multifamily investment transactions. Knutson and Leyvas will continue to serve as Managing Partners of Premier, which includes 8 sales advisors and 7 support staff. The company has also relocated its office from San Leandro to Marina Village on the Alameda waterfront. Leyvas indicates that "by creating a specialized business identity, Premier will further enhance its delivery of unique advisory and brokerage services to the apartment investor community."

In the past 3 years, Premier agents have closed sales of over 3400 multifamily units, valued in excess of $600 million. Recent notable transactions include Hacienda Commons, a 212-unit apartment community in Pleasanton, the highly-publicized $88 million sale of The Essex on Lake Merritt, Oakland’s luxury residential tower, the sale of the 425-unit EmeryBay Club & Condominiums in Emeryville, and two other sales over $60 million each in Hayward and Oakland. Co-President Knutson notes "our professional discipline and dedication to the multihousing industry are the reasons we have earned some of the most coveted listing assignments in the region. We intend to position Premier Apartment Advisors to become the undisputed leader in our market."

While Premier and Moison will continue to operate independently, Premier Apartment Advisors will maintain an affiliation with the Los Altos-based Moison Investment Company on selected major transactions. William and Jerry Moison established Moison Investment Company and have operated the business together for 25 years. The Moisons state "we heartily congratulate Richard and John on the re-identification of their unique company. Their track record in apartment and condo conversion sales clearly puts them at the forefront of the competition. We welcome their continued affiliation with our family of companies." The Moisons recently added another entity to their family of companies, Guardian Equity Growth, which coordinates private placement Tenant-In-Common investments and 1031 exchanges for a range of asset types.
