CANDIDATE FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Born in New York City, I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Bio-Chemistry from Fairleigh Dickenson University. After graduation, I enlisted in the National Guard and spent a year cf active duty and five years in a National Guard Program. I then attended Pace Graduate School of Business for a Masters degree in Market Management. During that time, I became involved in the electronics industry and formed Centennial Communications. Since then, I have founded many companies in the fields of electronics manufacturing and retail and wholesale distribution, opening locations in several states. In 1992, I formed a building, construction and real estate management company in South Florida. After marrying my wife, Florence, we moved to Rockland County, NY and raised a family of four: Stacey, Jason, Lisa and Penny. Ten years ago, we moved to WIlliams Island. We were residents of the 4000 Building for a short time, when I became involved with the the turnover of the building from the developer to the Unit Owners. I functioned in the capacity of Co-Chairman of the Engineering Committee, with the responsibility of hiring the most qualified Engineering Contractors available. I determined, oversaw and negotiated all areas of building concerns that dealt with engineering. I was one of the very first residents of the 1000 Building and was Involved in negotiations with the developer. I was elected to the Board of Directors of the 1000 Island Boulevard Condominium Association during the turnover process, along with Arthur Berger and Harvey Shapley. Aa President, I was instrumental in secur- ing the same Engineering Contractors who did such a fine job at the 4000 Building. With the help of Arthur Berger, I negotiated with the developer to receive close to $400,000 from them. The 1000 Building was the only condominium on Williams Island to receive this type of consideration from the developer. In addition, I have been recognized by Rockland County, NY for devoted service to the community, I am also a past President of Temple Emanu-EI in Miami Beach and received the Malmonldes Award, the highest honor the Temple bestowa upon Jewish leaders In South Florida. I have also received numerous awards and recognitions from many charities, civic and business organizaitons. I have been involved, have cared about my neighbors and our building, and feel that I have the necessary expertise and experience to make sure that our building continues to be properiy maintained with amenities that will further enhance our lives. I am a strong advocate of money management, am interested in getting the best val- ues and services we can afford, and will continue to be conscientious in keeping the maintenance payments as low as possible. I have been serving on the 1000 Island Boulevard Condominium Board of Directors for the past two yeara and am looking forward to continuing to contribute my time and energies to this position.

Two traditions one future." -- Bruce M. Perry Chief Executive Officer Mount Sinai Medical Center & Miami Heart Institute Bruce M. Perry Chief Executive Officer, Mount Sinai Medical Center Bruce M. Perry has been chief executive officer of Mount Sinai Medical Center since Jan. 4, 1999. In the two years that he's been at Mount Sinai Bruce has done a remarkable job of preparing the hospital to meet the diverse health care needs of the 21 st Century. Recently he spearheaded the hospital's purchase of Miami Heart Institute and is now overseeing the delicate process of integrating the two hospitals into one institution. As a result of this acquisition, Mount Sinai Medical Center & Miami Heart Institute is now Florida's largest, private, independent, not-for-profit teaching hospital. Before joining Mount Sinai, Bruce was owner and principal of Health Plan Management Advantage, in Washington, DC. He also was CEO for Community Hospitals of Central California, Fresno; National Children's Medical Center, Washington, D.C.; and University Hospital and Medical Clinics, Oklahoma City, Okla. Bruce received his Bachelor of Science degree from Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Allied Sciences in Boston; his MBA in Hospital Management from Cornell University; and a Master's in Public Health Policy from Harvard University. Within his first month as CEO of Mount Sinai, Bruce invited the real Patch Adams, portrayed by Robin Williams in the 1998 box office hit, to visit the medical center Sinai and introduce his "Service Excellence" philosophy. Bruce's objective was to stress the importance of quality medical care and compassionate service - a principle he continues to emphasize today. More than 3,500 people work at Mount Sinai & Miami Heart, making it the largest employer on Miami Beach. The hospital has 1,129 licensed acute and long-term care beds and 1,116 physicians. Mount Sinai & Miami Heart performs more than 6,700 cardiac catheterizations, 1,600 open heart surgeries annually - making its cardiac program the most active in South Florida.

In fact efforts to build an arts center began here in the early 19505. The first step in this direction came with the arrival of the Palm Beach Playhouse, now the Royal Poinciana Playhouse . IIIIII ------ ------ In 1968, one local arts pioneer, Mary Howes, along with a group of other residents, formed Fine Arts Festival, Incorporated. They sponsored six benefits to raise funds to build an arts center that would accommodate major opera, orchestra, ballet, and theatrical productions. They got as far as commissioning the late architect John Volk to draft a model. A feasibility study was conducted, and land was optioned next to the current site of the West Palm Beach Auditorium. But it became apparent that the community was not yet ready to support such a major undertaking. (~)JQJLQt.P-a..g~ Early Efforts to Build the Center Over the next ten years, the arts continued to grow in the county, and by 1978, the Palm Beach County Council of the Arts (recently renamed the Palm Beach County Cultural Council) was created, largely as a result of the efforts of Alexander W. Oreyfoos, Jr., then chairman and president of Photo Electronics Corporation/WPEC lV- 12, and Judith Goodman, an executive with Mr. Oreyfoos' firm. One of the goals of the council was to explore the possibility of building a major performing arts center. By 1980, the Arts Center Committee was actively pursuing the construction of an arts center financed solely with private funds. Although a site at Currie Park on Lake Worth in West Palm Beach had already been selected, the community was not yet ready to meet the financial challenge that the Center presented. Initial efforts to secure public funding focused on a proposed county one cent sales tax referendum. Although the referendum was defeated, results showed that some thirty percent of voters had agreed to tax themselves to build a world-class performing arts center. These results were encouraging. @_tQP_Qf-Piit9g Getting It Built By 1983, plans for the location of the Center had changed. Because of neighborhood opposition, Currie Park was no longer an option. Instead, planners switched their focus to a site adjacent to Palm Beach Community College in John Prince Park. The Center gathered $20 million in public commitments, but at this point at least another $5 million needed to be raised to build the center. In 1985, Mr. Dreyfoos kicked off the private fund raising campaign with a $1 million gift from Photo Electronics Corporation/WPEC TV-12. Then, in 1986, came a multimillion dollar contribution that shifted fundraising efforts into high-gear. A consortium of friends of Oklahoma native Raymond F. Kravis, a prominent geologist and philanthropist who wintered with his wife Bessie in Palm Beach, agreed to raise $5 million in Mr. Kravis' honor. The gift served as a major catalyst to the private fund raising campaign and inspired the Center's official name. By the time the center opened to the public in 1992, contributions in Mr. Kravis' honor totaled over $10 million. A year long review of architects culminated in 1986 with the selection of world-renowned Canadian architect, Eberhard Zeidler of Toronto-based Zeidler-Roberts Partnership. As the community's support for the Center grew, the scope and function of the facility that was originally envisioned expanded. The estimated cost for this new type of facility was $55 million. The community responded positively to this new plan, with Barnett Bank assembling a consortium of banks to offer a $17 million construction loan, backed by county issued Industrial Development Revenue Bonds. It seemed that all was a go, as a ground breaking ceremony took place at the community college site. However, just one month later, negotjations with the colleg~ came to a halt when it was learned that state regulations prohibited any debt financing to be used for the construction of facilities on community college campuses. At this juncture, the City of West Palm Beach offered a 5.4 acre parcel of prime downtown real estate as an alternate site. The land was part of Downtown/Uptown, a large-scale private redevelopment project. In addition the city offered a $5 million contribution and long-term financing for the construction of the parking garage. At this time, Blount, Inc., builder of, amongst other major facilities, the New Orleans Superdome, was chosen as the construction company that would build the Center. Blount began the 36 month construction schedule in September of 1989. They were joined by New York-based Artec Consultants' Russell Johnson, who designed the pristine acoustics of the main concert hall. In addition, Robert Metzger Interiors, also based in New York, brought a '405 Moderne motif to everything from the carpeting and furniture to the colors of the marble. Fundraising efforts proceeded beyond everyone's most optimistic hopes, and by the summer of 1991, it was evident the center would likely achieve an unheard of goal--a fully funded opening. The accomplishment, especially in light of the high percentage of private funding, made international headlines. @-tQILQfJ;@~ The Grand Opening In September of 1992, the Kravis Center doors opened to an anxiously awaiting community. The Center's dedication week hosted tens of thousands of patrons for a full week of free performances featuring local arts groups. The Gala Grand Opening took place on November 28, 1992 and featured the following program: Florida Philharmon Orchestra, James Judd, Conductor Burt Reynolds, Master of Ceremonie Roberta Peters Isaac Stern Leontyne Price Ella Fitzgerald Act I: Act II: Faith Prince Lily Tomlin The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater More than 2,000 guests attended the spectacular event along with one of the largest national and foreign press corps to ever cover an arts center opening. After the star-studded show, guests proceeded to the magically transformed roof of the Kravis Center parking garage where the dinner dance took place. @ top of page The LaMgYi~ FLANIG~ KATz RAYMONDI &SHEEHAN P.A.
