Exhibit 7 <br />Freeze/Thaw Effect of Har-Tru Courts <br />Frost occurs in the Neer-Tru clay court surface profile when water in the <br />surface rreezes. Depending on the extent of the freezing woather, front <br />may extend through the entire V thickness or Har-Tru, When sunlight snd <br />higher temperature reach the frozen surface the following morning, these <br />ice crystals will begin to melt from the top of Uie surface downward through <br />the profile. <br />it may take several hours for all ice crystals to melt in the profile. While <br />these Ice crystals are melting, water will form on top of the surface and form <br />puddles until the entire surface belovd begins to thaw. Once the profile. has <br />thawed completely the water will draln through the profile, <br />Until the entire profile has thawed and the water has drained back down <br />into the profile, the surface may be too wet for maintenance practice s and <br />for tennis play. We recommend everyone stay off the surface until it is <br />playable and workable since any traffic on a wet surface may compromise <br />the duality of thet surface. If players or court maintenance staff enters the <br />playing area before, this drying cycle is complete, minor damage to the <br />surface can occur. <br />To repair the indentatians (footprints, roger marks, etc.) caused by entering <br />the playing area too q&kly, use standard patching techniques or call Har- <br />Tru Sports or your local Mar-'rru Clay Court material distributor for <br />guidance. <br />25F-30 <br />
