Abrams Hebrew Academy
"Now that we have
completed our second building project with you. I would like to
congratulate and thank you and Penn Valley Constructors for your
excellent work in making a true campus of our school, first with the
construction of our gym in 1996. and now with the completion of our new
classroom building.
From the very beginning of our first project, it was obvious to our
school leadership that your company would lead us from concept, to
design to construction with the highest degree of professionalism. This
was repealed with our new school building. Penn Valley is a firm that
can be depended upon for design, approvals, construction, and the
discipline to hold and maintain the building schedule and the
all-important budget.
While you have built our gym and our school building, you have also
built much more with Abrams. You and your staff are great to work with
on a personal level, and I believe you would agree with me that Penn
Valley and Abrams have built a long-lasting bond of friendship.
Thank you once again for our genuine,
hands-on attention and superb professionalism on behalf of our school. 1 look
forward to keeping in touch."

"The construction of
our new Suzuki dealership was just recently completed by Penn Valley
Constructors, Inc. Our experience with Penn Valley was most definitely a
positive one.Penn
Valley's knowledge and understanding of our operations, enabled them to
bring forth suggestions to the General Motors building layout that
allowed us to double our number of service bays, while adding minimal
additional space to the building, and virtually no impact to the site
plan. Along with that, the use of the pre-engineered structure for most
of the building allowed for a means of providing clear span space in our
service areas. Using metal liner panel in our service areas provided an
economical means for bright, clean and maintenance free partition walls,
separating the different service environments. Their implementation of
the Suzuki Image requirement finishes to the showroom and public areas
were right on target.
These are just a few of the different
scenarios that Penn Valley was able to incorporate into the construction of the
dealership which resulted in the overall success of the project. My sincere
appreciation to Mike McCormick and Steve Pfau for their attention to detail and
expertise throughout the process.
I give Penn Valley my highest
recommendations to anyone who is looking for professional, quality service."

"Please' allow me to
take the opportunity to express our great pleasure in working with your
firm on the Ill-mil of our new satellite museum in New Mope and on the
renovation of our galleries here in Doylestown. Both projects were
completed by your Jinn with the highest degree of craftsmanship and with
an attention to detail that is uncommon in today's world. Every one in
your organization was willing to make an extra effort to bring these
projects to a successful completion with a sense of responsibility and
pride in their work. I wanted to single out the efforts of Jeff Bertoldo.
the Superintendent, and Vilnis Ore. the Project Manager. Both of them
put in countless hours without complaint. bringing this project to a
successful conclusion.In
addition to the excellent work by members of your staff and by your many
subcontractors. your personal intervention at the appropriate moments
was also of great value. It is always rewarding to award a construction
contract to the low bidder and then to have that bidder complete the
project with the skill and finesse that you folks brought to our job. I
might also add that these projects were both completed without any
unexpected or excessive change order costs.
It was indeed a great pleasure to work with you and the members of your
organization."

Triumph
Brewing Company
"Last year we
selected Penn Valley Constructors to be our contractor for the new
Triumph Brew Pub in New Hope, PA. Our decision was largely based on
their excellent performance on a renovation at our Princeton location.
The New Hope job was very complicated
including complex mechanical systems and upscale finishes. The job was
made more challenging by the fact that it was built within the confines
of a one hundred year old industrial building.
Penn Valley's performance on the
New Hope job exceeded our expectations at every level. Project Manager.
John DenBleyker's attention to detail and customer service are of the
highest order. Field Superintendent, Jeff Bcrtoldo's control of the job
site and personal concern for the project are what every owner would
hope for.
We commend Penn Valley for their
excellent performance and recommend them to anyone who wants a
contractor dedicated to quality, schedule, and customer satisfaction."

"Penn Valley
Constructors, Inc. has recently completed the construction of the first
phase of our industrial campus. Our business is the manufacture of
highly specialized chemicals and materials utilized in microelectronics
and diagnostics. Our buildings are as specialized as our products and
the markets we serve, demanding sophisticated construction at every
level. Few contractors are qualified to undertake a project with these
complex issues, particularly on a design/ build basis.We consider our experience with Penn Valley to be extremely positive.
They facilitated almost every level of our projects from planning
through design and construction.
Penn Valley gave us incredible service
from start to finish. I recommend them and give a rating of 5 stars.
As witness to our satisfaction, we have brought Penn Valley back to help
us design and build the next phase of our construction."

| Precision Acura "I just wanted to let
you know how pleased we have been with your company's performance during
the remodel of our Dealership. From the professional estimating of
costs, to the development of the plans, to the construction of the
facility, everything was accomplished with the utmost of care and
concern.
Things were
always done above board which eliminated the many possible surprises
that usually arise in this type of project. There were never any
conflicts or areas of contention. Your employees and most subcontractors
need to be commended.
Special recognition should be given to Mike
McCormick, Rich Traynor, and Steve Pfau. Mike did a great job getting the
project rolling and carried it through the grueling approval process. Then Rich
took over setting up scheduling and the subcontractors to operate efficiently
and with tremendous concern for our ongoing operation. He was always aware of
the needs of our employees and clients. After that, Steve was fantastic. He
became part of our family. His heartfelt concern for the project and the
possible negative impact on our business was never ending. He was always a
gentleman and took care of our customers as if they were his own.
Your company seems to have developed an
expertise in the renewal of Acura Dealerships. If T can be a reference or supply
any information to any prospective clients, it would be my pleasure. Best of
luck in the future."

"My name is Jim
Botsacos and I own and operate James Toyota in Remington New Jersey.
I am a resident of Mamaroneck New
York. In 1992 I needed to find a contractor to build a dealership in
Flemington New Jersey.
Being a stranger to the area. I did
comprehensive due diligence and interviewed several contractors. I was actually
referred to Penn Valley Contractors Inc. by another Toyota dealer who had a
similar positive experience.
Adjectives to describe them would be: honest, trustworthy, prudent, competent,
direct, accommodating and reliable.
No wonder they were our choice for a recent renovation adding four additional
service bays.
I am enclosing a copy of a showroom
brochure that will show some of my dealership, and it will put a face to a name.
If I can be of any additional service, it will be my pleasure to speak with
you."

| North Park Real
Estate Group "We would like to
extend our thanks for a job well done. This project was our largest
combination store/warehouse facility for Barnett, Inc. and the delivery
date was most critical due to the very restrictive vacancy date placed
by their previous landlord. The plan your company devised to work with
the township and have the tenant move-in in phases worked to near
perfection.
Keeping
control of an out of town project is not an easy task. From design
through municipal approvals and construction to occupancy, while
maintaining quality, the entire project ran smooth with minimal extra
attention required on our part; a fact that we very much appreciated-
Again, thanks for a job well done."

"When we hired Penn
Valley to construct the addition of the Krupp Plastics project, we had
every confidence that you would do the same good job on the addition
that you did on the original building. You didn't disappoint us. In
fact, when our customer pressed us with an earlier than planned upon
completion date, your guys found a way to step up the schedule without
sacrificing quality or adding cost.
Special praise should go lo your
personnel involved in the project - John DenBleyker, the project
manager, showed the same steadfast professionalism on this project that
he exhibited on the original building. It was for that reason that both
Krupp and our company wanted John and Penn Valley back for the Krupp
addition. We knew he would deliver.
Your new field superintendent. Jeff Bertoldo, also did a great job. You
should be particularly proud of Jeff. He kept the jobsite spotless at
all times and kept the work flowing without missing a beat. When we were
all pressed to shorten the schedule, Jeff and John both look a "can do"
attitude by placing the customer's needs first.
We look forward to our next project with
you and your team. Thanks for a great job."

beautiful job you did building my new facility located on Rt. 413 in
Bristol Township. It was nice to work with a company that could build a
20,000 square foot facility despite minor obstacles. I was especially
impressed that you constructed a one million dollar facility in such a
timely fashion.
The
workmanship of your sublet contractors was outstanding from the block
work to the final trim work. The biggest difference to me came six
months after the job was completed when 1 received a check in the mail
for $960.00, which was unused budget money. That's a sure indication of
your company's commitment to running an ethical business while producing
a quality finished product. Thanks again for a great job!"

| Grainger "I would like to
extend my appreciation for the cooperation and service that you and your
company have demonstrated completing past projects.
Reviewing some of our earlier completed
projects, I realized that Mike McCormick has been the Project Manager
for all Grainger work and is especially a strong communicator. He has
been involved on both new construction as well as lease renovations. In
fact, the most recently completed project was the renovation of Atlantic
City where the building had been poorly neglected with numerous
surprises and the project was still completed on time and within budget.
As you are aware, our company is very loyal to firms that perform and
meet our high standards. We reward "hard work" with more hard work.
I am always confident that you will provide
me with the team necessary to complete the task, whether it is a design/build
project or even a maintenance and repair item.
Please feel free to forward this letter to
potential clients with our appreciation of past projects and look forward to a
continued working relationship."

| The Richards
Investment Partnerships "The latest building
erected in the Runnemede Corporate Center is now completed, and the
Tenant, The Visiting Nurse Association, has taken occupancy.
Now that the "dust" has settled, I
wanted to express my thanks to you and your staff, particularly Mike
McCormick, Project Manager, and Steve Pfau, on-site Construction
Superintendent, for a job "well done".
This was a particularly complex project
when considering the large amount of interior Finish involved (over 55% of the
building was finished office and day-care) and all of specialty items required
by the Tenant. Further complicating the situation was the Tenant's tight time
frame, the constant barrage of plan changes being made, and the fact that this
project was built during the winter months.
In spite of all of the above impediments,
the building was delivered to the Tenant on time and on budget.
Both Mike and Steve must be commended for the excellent job they did keeping the
project moving forward while controlling the overall construction costs. They
were attentive to both the needs and whims of the Tenant as well as the demands
of my partners and myself.
From the initial planning, design and
estimating phases through build-out and Tenant occupancy, they made the entire
process run like a well-oiled machine.
We are especially proud of this latest
addition to The Runnemede Corporate Center, and again wish to commend and
recognize Penn Valley Constructors for the major role you had in it."

We have received many compliments on the

write this testimonial letter to Penn Valley Constructors as related to
the new construction of the 15,000 square foot annex to our main
building.
You were
extremely helpful in securing the building permits from Bristol Township
who has a reputation of being very difficult to work with.
Foundation work began in late
November 1997 In spite of poor weather in December, Penn Valley secured
temporary occupancy permits on April 1, 1997 only two weeks beyond the
completion date.
My father and I were more than
pleased with your attention to detail to the many punch list items that
were brought to your attention at the weekly construction meetings. As
in any major project, there were several items that had to be negotiated
and John Otto was very fair in resolving these issues to our complete
satisfaction.
We are extremely proud of the
building Penn Valley constructed for Clarence J. Venne, Inc. and would
go so far as to say we would give your company the right of refusal
should we ever be fortunate enough to build a new facility. On behalf of
my father and 1, we were completely satisfied with the finished annex
and would highly recommend your company to any new prospective clients."

thought possible. The new 200,000 square foot warehouse is great too! It
will enable us to purchase and supply better than ever.
Neither one of us could have imagined
when we met eighteen (18) years ago, that in the years to come you would
build us fourteen {14) new stores and two (2) warehouses as well as
