| "We have successfully worked with Brent Harley and his team to create a mountain master plan design that will transform the existing Porters Ski Resort into one of the leading four season alpine resort destinations in
Australasia. In the process, Brent has evidenced a thorough understanding of the commercial drivers for the creation of a viable ski resort, while also integrating very well with the local expertise that was assembled to assist in creating the master plan. The Porters Ski Resort (to be renamed Crystal Valley Alpine Resort ) is located in an area of outstanding scenic quality and environmental integrity. Preservation of these rare qualities continues to be one of the core values of the master plan and Brent has embraced these values in his approach to our unique opportunity. We would highly
recommend anyone considering the upgrade of their ski resort to engage the
services of Brent Harley & Associates."

| "This is in reference to work done by Brent Harley & Associates for JELD-WEN Development at its Silver Mountain Resort location in Kellogg, Idaho. Brent Harley and his team have developed the Master Plan for Silver
Mountain Resort’s new Gondola Village, the new golf course community called Galena Ridge, and the resort’s ski area master plan. Brent Harley and Associates has created an exciting, multi-year development plan for Silver Mountain Resort that has been the key in spurring the transformation of Silver Mountain from a regional day-use area to a year round destination resort. The amazing sales results we’ve seen with our Gondola Village and Galena Ridge real estate offerings are a major testimonial to the work
performed by Brent Harley and Associates. We selected Brent Harley & Associates because of Brent’s commitment to be personally involved and available in every aspect of master planning this project and we have not been disappointed. Brent and his talented team have been excellent to work with, are easily accessible, well experienced, down-to-earth, and produce high quality work in every endeavor. We look forward to an ongoing
relationship with Brent Harley & Associates as we bring Brent’s visions and plans to life over the next five to ten years and look towards the master
planning of our third development site at Silver Mountain Resort. I would be pleased to further discuss my excellent experience with Brent Harley and his team with any interested parties."
