They undertook their own extensive clean up prior to reopening for business. We engaged our own contractors to clean the roof of all the debris immediately after the collapse. The rest of the building, since it Al was vacant, was secured and free of debris from the World Trade Center disaster. As to the facade, enclosed please find the contract for said clean up from our contractor.

As for 116 Nassau Street, only the 10`h floor is occupied as offices by the owner, Abacus 0 Federal Savings Bank, and a small ground floor store by a Sprint store.

The rest of the building was secured prior to the attack and was ~. free of any fallout debris. The roofs were cleaned by our own contractors immediately after the collapse. The Sprint store did their own clean up prior to reopening for business. 4U As to the facade, enclosed please find the contract for said clean up from our contractor.

As for 18 Murray Street, the building was completely vacant prior to and immediately after the attack except for the restaurant on the ground floor which could not reopen for business until sometime in December, 2001 and then only part time because of the streets being closed off. Our own contractors cleaned off the roof and the inside of the building
