                      Trial Court Case Number: D-1-GN-12-000807

       Dear Sir,

            I represent the Appellee Brown Real Estate Ventures 5. I believe Appellants filed their notice
       of appeal prematurely. I would like to apprise the Court of the following filings in the trial court
       affecting the timetable to perfect an appeal in this matter.

        August 7, 2015                 Court of Appeals’ deadline to Appellants to
                                       pay filing fee and file docketing statement in
                                       letter to Appellants dated July 28, 2015

Court of Appeals

      As of this morning, I understand Appellants have not paid the filing fee or filed the docketing
statement as required in the Court’s letter dated July 28, 2015. Based on the above filings in the
trial court, I calculate the deadline to perfect an appeal to be August 26, 2015.

    Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

                                                   Sincerely,

                                                   /s/ Michael Deitch

                                                   Michael Deitch
