In Re: Merit Associates, Inc/Merit Contractors (collectively referred to as "Merit")

To Whom It May Concern:

The above captioned company completed a construction project for us at our dealership property located at 148-160 North Main Street in Branford, Connecticut. The project, which included extensive renovations to our facility, as well as the construction of a significant addition, was the culmination of three years of planning and development. Subaru of America, of which we are a franchised dealer, was also involved in the design intent process.

Merit completed this project in a professional and flawless manner.

Most business owners are very nervous when it comes to renovating or expanding their facility, given the "always anticipated" cost over-runs, business disruption and construction delays. With the incredible experience we have had with Merit, we are now the envy of most of my peer dealers seeking to embark upon a significant project.

I would absolutely recommend the Merit team to anyone, public or private, seeking to develop, renovate or expand a facility. Their management depth has a significant amount of experience and they are able to solve any problems presented, as well as work to budget and plan.

I would welcome the opportunity to speak with anyone seeking a reference on this world class company.
Very Truly Yours,

Robert J. Alvine
