      <image:title>About</image:title>
      <image:caption>Retained to serve as its lead real estate advisor during its Chapter 11 reorganization, the largest retail bankruptcy case in U.S. history.  Kmart emerged from bankruptcy in May 2003, approximately 15 months after the date of its initial Chapter 11 petitions.  During the initial stage of its reorganization, our team assisted Kmart in the evaluation and subsequent rejection of over 500 “dark”, or previously closed stores, saving the company more than $250 million in annual lease costs.  We next assisted the company in the decisions to close, in two separate phases, approximately 600 stores, one-third of its total operating store base.    Thereafter, we provided Kmart with a variety of services including the development of a proprietary property valuation model, abstracting more than 1,400 leases, inspecting selected stores and development sites, assessing and recommending property disposition strategies, advising on the assumption or rejection of leases, evaluating proposed transactions for the sale of closed stores, developing property abstract database and integrating it and the valuation model with Kmart’s SQL dbase platform</image:caption>

      <image:title>About</image:title>
      <image:caption>Retained by the company during its attempted Chapter 11 reorganization.  Worked closely with Service Merchandise management, its legal counsel and other advisors to preserve and maximize the extraordinary value of the company’s real property.  During the course of the company’s restructuring, several business lines were discontinued resulting in significantly underutilized store space.  Recommended alternatives to “unlock” the value of the excess space by demising appropriately configured stores into two spaces; one for use as a smaller format Service Merchandise store, and the other available for sublease to a complimentary third-party retailer.  This strategy resulted in the demising and subleasing of58 stores comprising more than 1.5 million square feet, and most of these transactions were with national, credit-worthy retailers.  After the company’s decision to liquidate, Gemini assisted management in pricing, marketing and negoitiating several transactions.  All of the Company’s real estate assets, including over 220 stores, 2 distribution centers and the headquarters office, were sold in three transactions totalling approximately $240 million</image:caption>

      <image:title>About</image:title>
      <image:caption>Retained by a New York City based equity fund to restructure the management and operations of Technology Park of Greater Louisville, Kentucky, a 1.4 million square foot industrial park.  Formerly known as the Naval Ordnance Station Louisville, and scheduled  to be shut down in 1995 under the Department of Defense’s ongoing base closure program.  Instead, the property, along with 1,000 valuable Navy jobs, was privatized in August 1996.  The 142 acre urban industrial park, was under a long term lease with the Louisville/Jefferson County Redevelopment Authority, and home to two of the nation’s leading defense contractors, BAE Systems and Raytheon.  Gemini was engaged to analyze the existing management and operations of the property, prepare and implement a turnaround plan, and then identify and train new full time property, facilities and accounting managers.    Evaluated and restructured key vendor relationships, advised on political channels, and hired a new on site management team.</image:caption>
