- - Memo, John Latham/Jim McDougal July 1, 1986 MADISON REAL ESTATE When initial sales began at Maple Creek Farms in April of 1983, the listing broker was Perryman Realty Company, Inc. Mr. Perryman had, at this time, other interests including his own subdivisions. This prohibited his devoting the seven days a week necessary to the sales effort then under way at Maple Creek Farms and his listing was terminated. Some of Mr. Perryman's better salesmen desired to remain at Maple Creek and continue selling. However, Arkansas law requires that real estate salesmen be under the direct supervision of a licensed real estate broker. Mrs. McDougal holds a valid broker's license. In 1983, her license was held under the name "McDougal Real Estate" although she was not actively involved in the sale of real estate at this time. Upon the termination of Mr. Perryman's activities, Mrs. McDougal changed the name of her real estate company to Madison Real Estate Company". Madison Real Estate became a wholly owned subsidiary of Madison Financial Corporation. From that time until the present, Mrs. McDougal has performed the duty of supervision broker for the various salesmen working for Madison Real Estate. Although it is normal practice that the supervising broker receives at least thirty percent of commissions generated by the salesmen under their supervision, Mrs. McDougal charged no such fees. The only fees Mrs. McDougal has received from Madison Real Estate are fees for sales she made personally. SORENSON ENTERPRISES Sorenson Enterprises is a sole proprietorship owned by Erik Sorenson. Mr. Sorenson is a general contractor engaged in construction and landscaping work. He built the sales office for the subdivison at Camden known as Greentree Farms. He also built the sales office at Fair Oaks. At several of our subdivisions in southern Arkansas, he supervised the painting and erection of signs in entranceways. He employed in these subdivisions a crew of men engaged in selective clearing of trees, planting of grass, and the general beautification of the subdivisions. Concurrent with this activity, Mr. Sorenson was engaged in building houses for other persons unrelated to this company. Because of the observed quality of his workmanship, he was placed under Mr. Dutton's command at Little Rock, and given the responsibility of constructing or making additions to various houses at Maple Creek Farms owned by the company. When the company undertook the development of Castle Grande Estates, an arrangement was negotiated with Mr. Sorenson whereby for a flat monthly fee he would supervise the assembling of the modular houses and these duties involved the preparation of footings and 2
