NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2009

(UNAUDITED)

 

1. Organization and Nature of Business:

CNL Lifestyle Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized in Maryland on August 11, 2003. The Company operates and has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. Various wholly owned subsidiaries have been and will be formed by the Company for the purpose of acquiring and owning direct or indirect interests in real estate. The Company generally invests in lifestyle properties in the United States that are primarily leased on a long-term (generally five to 20 years, plus multiple renewal options), triple-net or gross basis to tenants or operators that the Company considers to be significant industry leaders. To a lesser extent, the Company also leases properties to taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) tenants and engages independent third-party managers to operate those properties. The Company also makes or acquires loans (mortgage, mezzanine and other loans) and may invest up to 10% of its assets in businesses that provide services, or are otherwise ancillary, to the types of properties in which it is permitted to invest.

As of March 31, 2009, the Company owned 115 lifestyle properties, directly and indirectly, within the following asset classes: Ski and Mountain Lifestyle, Golf, Attractions and Additional Lifestyle Properties. Ten of these 115 properties are owned through unconsolidated ventures and three are located in Canada. Although these are the asset classes in which the Company has invested and is most likely to invest in the future, it may acquire or invest in any type of property that it believes has the potential to generate long-term revenue. As of March 31, 2009, the Company also had made several loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of approximately $166.8 million.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies:

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of PresentationThe accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s results for the interim period presented. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2009 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009. Amounts as of December 31, 2008 included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Accounting for Property Acquisitions – Upon acquisition of properties, the Company recognizes the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised), “Business Combinations” (“FAS 141R”), No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). For each acquisition, the Company records the fair value of the land, buildings, equipment, intangible assets, including in-place lease origination costs and above or below market lease values, and any contingent purchase consideration. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair values are determined based on incorporating market participant assumptions, discounted cash flow models and the Company’s estimates reflecting the facts and circumstances of each acquisition.

Acquisition Fees and Costs – Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted FAS 141R and immediately began expensing all acquisition fees and costs. Prior to the adoption of FAS 141R, acquisition fees and costs were capitalized and allocated to the cost basis of the assets acquired. The adoption of FAS 141R had, and will continue to have, a significant impact on the Company’s operating results due to the highly acquisitive nature of its business. FAS 141R also causes a decrease in cash flows from operating activities, as acquisition fees and costs historically have been included in cash flows from investing activities, but are treated as cash flows from operating activities under FAS141R. Upon adoption of FAS 141R, the Company expensed approximately $5.9 million in acquisition fees and costs for acquisitions that were being pursued in 2008 but which did not close as of December 31, 2008. Additionally, the Company expensed approximately $1.6 million in new acquisition fees and costs incurred during the three month period ended March 31, 2009.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued):

 

Fair Value of Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities – Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted FAS 157 for its non-financial assets and liabilities. The standard affects how fair value is determined for non-financial assets such as goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets, including the incorporation of market participant assumptions in determining the fair value.

Use of Estimates Management has made a number of estimates and assumptions related to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. For example, significant estimates and assumptions are made in connection with the allocation of purchase price and the analysis of real estate and loan impairment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. In addition, the Company has reclassified and included the results from its property sold in 2008 in discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In April 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Staff Position (“FSP”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) No. 157-4 “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions that are not Orderly” (“FSP FAS 157-4”). FSP FAS 157-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). This FSP FAS 157-4 is effective in reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that FSP FAS 157-4 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 107-1 and Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) No. 28-1 “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“FSP FAS 107-1” and “APB 28-1”). FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for annual and interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 are effective in reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 115-2 and FAS No. 124-2 “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than Temporary Impairments” (“FSP FAS 115-2” and “124-2”). FSP FAS 115-2 and 124-2 amend the other-than-temporary impairment guidance for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to improve the disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. FSP FAS 115-2 and 124-2 are effective in reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that FSP FAS 115-2 and 124-2 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In September 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 133-1 and FASB Interpretation No. 45-4 “Disclosures about Credit Derivatives and Certain Guarantees: An Amendment to FAS No. 133, “Disclosures about Derivative and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 133”) and FASB Interpretation No. 45 “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (“FIN 45”), and Clarification of the Effective Date of FAS No. 161 (“FAS 161”)(“FSP FAS 133-1” and “FIN 45-4”). This FSP amends FAS 133 to require disclosures by sellers of credit derivatives (includes credit derivatives embedded in a hybrid instrument) and also amends FIN 45 to require an additional disclosure about the current status of the payment/performance risk of guarantees. In addition, FSP FAS 133-1 clarifies the FASB’s intent about the effective date of FAS 161. The new disclosures are effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The implementation of FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s disclosures regarding its derivative instruments

In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 142-3, “Determining the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP 142-3”). FSP 142-3 amends the factors to be considered in determining the useful life of intangible assets. Its intent is to improve the consistency between the useful life of an intangible asset and the period of expected cash flows used to measure such asset’s fair value. FSP 142-3 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of FSP 142-3 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued):

 

In March 2008, the FASB issued FAS 161, an amendment to FAS 133. This statement calls for all entities to enhance the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities to include (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FAS 133, where it requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value, and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flow. The application of this pronouncement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company currently records its hedging instruments on its balance sheet at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). As such, the adoption of FAS 161 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s disclosures regarding its derivative instruments.

In December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 160, “Non-Controlling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements” (“FAS 160”). This statement calls for (i) all non-controlling interest to be recognized in the equity section of the consolidated balance sheets apart from the parent’s equity, (ii) requires the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income and (iii) requires that changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently. The adoption of this pronouncement was effective in fiscal periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

5. Operating Leases:

On March 31, 2009, the Company amended 43 of its leases with EAGLE Golf, reducing 2009 annualized base rent under the leases from approximately $37.8 million to $28.1 million and average annual (straight-lined) base rent over the lease term to approximately $31.5 million. Additionally, rent payments for the first half of 2009 have been deferred to allow the tenant to build up working capital. These deferred amounts are scheduled to be paid evenly over the final ten years of the lease term beginning in 2019.

In November 2008, Heritage Golf defaulted on its leases at Valencia Country Club and Weston Hills Country Club. As part of a negotiated settlement, the Company terminated Heritage Golf’s leases at Valencia Golf Club and Weston Hills Country Club on February 1, 2009 and engaged third-party golf management companies to operate the courses. As of that date, the Company commenced the recording of golf operating revenues and expenses instead of rental income, as previously recorded. The Company also recorded a loss on lease termination of approximately $1.7 million in connection with the write off of deferred rents and in-place lease intangible assets as well as the assumption of a net working capital deficit at the properties less $3.6 million in forgone security deposits by Heritage.

FOOTNOTES:

 

(1) Income is allocated between the Company and its partnership using the hypothetical liquidation at book value (“HLBV”) method of accounting.
(2) During the first quarter of 2009, the Intrawest Venture determined that it made certain accounting errors in 2008 totaling approximately $0.4 million. The Company concluded that these errors were not material to its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 or the three months ended March 31, 2009, nor does it expect these errors to be material to the financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2009. As such, the Company recorded the cumulative effect of these adjustments in equity in earnings from unconsolidated subsidiaries in the condensed consolidated statements of operations during the first quarter of 2009. The effect of these adjustments on the three months ended March 31, 2009 was a $0.4 million reduction in equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities and a corresponding increase in net loss of $0.4 million.
(3) The Company receives interest payments from a mezzanine loan made to certain entities within the Intrawest Venture related to two Canadian properties in the amount of $8.8 million. The loan requires payments of interest only until its maturity in 2029. These payments are reflected as distributions from unconsolidated entities in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

FOOTNOTES:

 

(1) As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company’s share of partners’ capital was approximately $157.1 million and $158.9 million, respectively, and the total difference between the carrying amount of investment and the Company’s share of partners’ capital was approximately $12.4 million and $12.2 million, respectively.
(2) This amount includes a mezzanine loan made to the Intrawest Venture in connection with two Canadian properties.

During the first quarter of 2009, the Company contributed approximately $0.8 million to the Wolf Partnership to fund its pro rata share of amounts needed by the Partnership to fund working capital shortfalls at the properties and to fund debt service.

On April 29, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire Great Wolf’s interest in the Wolf Partnership and to enter into new management and license agreements for the Dells property only. In addition, the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent to re-brand and lease the Sandusky property to an unrelated third-party tenant. See “Subsequent Events” for additional information.

8. Public Offerings, Stockholders’ Equity:

On April 9, 2008, the Company commenced its third common stock offering for the sale of up to $2.0 billion in common stock (200 million shares of common stock at $10.00 per share), including up to $47.5 million in shares of common stock (five million shares of common stock at $9.50 per share), available for sale under the terms of the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan. As of March 31, 2009, the Company had cumulatively raised approximately $2.4 billion (236.6 million shares) in subscription proceeds including approximately $142.7 million (15.0 million shares) received through the reinvestment plan.

The Company has and will continue to incur costs in connection with the offering and issuance of shares, including filing, legal, accounting, printing, marketing support and escrow fees, selling commissions and due diligence expense reimbursements, all of which are deducted from the gross proceeds of the offering. As of March 31, 2009, the total cumulative offering and stock issuance costs incurred was approximately $251.8 million.

 

9. Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets:

As of March 31, 2009, prepaid expenses and other assets primarily consisted of accrued and deferred rental income under operating leases totaling approximately $40.7 million, and loan costs of approximately $6.1 million. As of December 31, 2008, this balance also included capitalized acquisition fees and costs of approximately $5.9 million related to acquisitions the Company was pursuing. However, beginning January 1, 2009, these acquisition fees and costs were expensed immediately in accordance with the adoption of FAS 141R, and were no longer capitalized and included in prepaid expenses and other assets.

 

10. Fair Value Measurements:

The Company’s derivative instruments are valued primarily based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, and credit risks), and are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The valuation of derivative instruments also includes a credit value adjustment which is a Level 3 input. However, the impact of the assumption is not significant to its overall valuation calculation and therefore the Company considers its derivative instruments to be classified as Level 2. The fair value of such instruments was approximately $7.9 million at March 31, 2009 and is included in other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Impaired loans are valued at the lower of cost or fair value at the time the loan is identified as impaired. Fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral under these loans and is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Collateral is generally real estate and/or business assets and its fair value is generally determined based on appraisals, management’s internal evaluations and market studies and may be discounted or adjusted based on historical knowledge, trends, or changes in market conditions from the time of initial valuation. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

As of March 31, 2009, the Company had one outstanding note receivable that had been deemed impaired. The value of the underlying collateral was determined based on, among other factors, an appraisal discounted to reflect a decline in market conditions, a range of cap rates, and risk adjusted cash flows. Management also considered price per acre, and although there have been no recent comparable sales, management believes the price per acre invested in the collateral property based on the carrying value to be a reasonably conservative amount. As such, no valuation allowance has been established.

11. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities:

The Company utilizes derivative instruments to partially offset the effect of fluctuating interest rates on the cash flows associated with its variable-rate debt. The Company follows established risk management policies and procedures in its use of derivatives and does not enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. The Company records all derivative instruments on its balance sheet at fair value. On the date the Company enters into a derivative contract, the derivative is designated as a hedge of the exposure to variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction. The effective portion of the derivative’s gain or loss is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently recognized in the statement of operations in the periods in which earnings are impacted by the variability of the cash flows of the hedged item. Any ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reflected in interest expense in the statement of operations.

As of March 31, 2009, the Company has two interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest payments from their inception. The following table summarizes the terms and fair values of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 2009, which are included in other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (in thousands).

11. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (Continued):

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company’s hedges qualified as highly effective and, accordingly, all of the change in value is reflected in other comprehensive income (loss). Determining fair value and testing effectiveness of these financial instruments requires management to make certain estimates and judgments. Changes in assumptions could have a positive or negative impact on the estimated fair values and measured effectiveness of such instruments could, in turn, impact the Company’s results of operations.

13. Related Party Arrangements (Continued):

 

The Company also maintains accounts at a bank in which the Company’s chairman and vice-chairman serve as directors. The Company had deposits at that bank of approximately $25.6 million and $13.7 million as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

 

14. Redemption of Shares:

During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company redeemed approximately 2.3 million shares of common stock at an average price of approximately $9.55 per share for a total of approximately $21.7 million of which, approximately $5.4 million was payable and was included in other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2009. The redemption price per share is based on the amount of time that the redeeming stockholder has held the applicable shares, but in no event will the redemption price be greater than the price of shares sold to the public in any offering.

In the event there are insufficient funds to redeem all of the shares for which redemption requests have been submitted, and the Company determines to redeem shares, the Company will commit to redeem shares on a pro rata basis at the end of each quarter, with the actual redemption occurring at the beginning of the next quarter. A stockholder whose shares are not redeemed due to insufficient funds in that quarter can ask that the request to redeem the shares be honored at such time as sufficient funds exist. In such case, the redemption request will be retained and such shares will be redeemed before any subsequently received redemption requests are honored. Redemption shares are considered retired and will not be reissued.

 

15. Distributions:

In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company must, among other things, make distributions each taxable year equal to at least 90% of its REIT taxable income. The Company intends to make regular distributions, and its board of directors currently intends to declare distributions on a monthly basis using the first day of the month as the record date. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company declared and paid distributions of approximately $34.9 million ($0.1538 per share).

On January 27, 2009, the Company’s board of directors declared a special distribution of $0.035 per share to stockholders of record as of March 31, 2009. Additionally, the Company increased its monthly distribution rate from $0.05125 to $0.0521 per share effective April 1, 2009. The special distribution, totaling approximately $8.0 million, will be paid on June 30, 2009 along with the Company’s quarterly distribution.

For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, approximately 21.3% and 50.7% of the distributions paid to the stockholders were considered ordinary income and approximately 78.7% and 49.3% were considered a return of capital for federal income tax purposes, respectively. No amounts distributed to stockholders are required to be or have been treated as a return of capital for the purposes of calculating the stockholders’ return on their invested capital as described in the advisory agreement.

 

16. Commitments & Contingencies:

The Company has commitments under ground leases, concession hold and land permits. Ground lease payments, concession hold and land permit fees are generally based on a percentage of gross revenue of the underlying property over certain thresholds, and are paid by the third-party tenants in accordance with the terms of the triple-net leases with those tenants. These fees and expenses were approximately $2.7 million and $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and have been reflected as ground lease, concession hold and permit fees with a corresponding increase in rental income from operating leases in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company has committed to fund its pro rata share of additional contingent purchase price for one of its unconsolidated resort village properties owned by the Intrawest Venture, totaling approximately $0.6 million. The additional contingent purchase price is not to provide compensation for services but is based on the property achieving certain financial performance goals. The additional contingent purchase price is expected to be paid during the second quarter of 2009.

16. Commitments & Contingencies (Continued):

 

The Company has commitments to fund equipment replacements and other capital improvement projects for its properties. The Company expects to make approximately $45.2 million of such capital expenditures during the remainder of the year ending December 31, 2009.

From time to time, the Company may be exposed to litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Management is not aware of any litigation that it believes will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

 

17. Subsequent Events:

The Company’s board of directors declared distributions of $0.0521 per share to stockholders of record at the close of business on April 1, 2009 and May 1, 2009. These distributions are to be paid by June 30, 2009.

On April 29, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Great Wolf to acquire its 30.3% interest in the Wolf Partnership for $6.0 million which will result in the Company’s ownership of 100% of the venture that owns two Great Wolf waterpark resorts. In connection with the Company’s acquisition of its partnership interest, Great Wolf has agreed to terminate the existing management and license agreements for the Great Wolf Lodge-Dells and Great Wolf Lodge-Sandusky properties and to enter into a new management and license agreement for the Dells property only.

In connection with the Company’s agreement to acquire Great Wolf’s share of the Wolf Partnership, the Company has also entered into a non-binding letter of intent to re-brand and lease the Sandusky property to an unrelated third-party tenant. Upon completion of the acquisition, the operations of the Sandusky and Dells properties will be consolidated into the Company’s financial statements. These transactions are expected to close during 2009 and are subject to lender approval. There can be no assurance that the Company will ultimately acquire Great Wolf’s interest in the Wolf Partnership, enter into new management and license agreements for the Dells property or re-brand and enter into a lease for the Sandusky property.

On April 30, 2009, one of the Company’s borrowers paid off its loan of approximately $10.1 million, including interest.

On May 6, 2009, the Company acquired Hawaiian Waters Adventure Park in Kapolei on the Hawaiian island of Oahu from Village Roadshow Theme Parks USA, Inc. (“Village Roadshow”) for a purchase price of approximately $15.0 million. The Company agreed to pay additional purchase consideration of up to $14.7 million upon the property achieving certain financial performance goals over the next three years. The park is leased to Village Roadshow under a long-term triple-net lease for a term of 20 years with six five-year renewal options.

On May 13, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement to redevelop its Orlando Grand Plaza Hotel & Suite property located in Florida for approximately $28.2 million. In addition, the Company executed an agreement to lease the property to a third-party tenant once the hotel reopens, which is expected to occur in April 2010.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion is based on the condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 and for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. Amounts as of December 31, 2008 included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. This information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the audited consolidated financial statements, notes and management’s discussion and analysis included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

All capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the “Definitions” section of our prospectus.

STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

The following information contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements generally are characterized by the use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “predict,” “believe” and “expect” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, our actual results could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Some factors that might cause such a difference include the following: the current global economic downturn, conditions affecting the CNL brand name, increased direct competition, changes in government regulations or accounting rules, changes in local and national real estate conditions, our ability to obtain additional lines of credit or permanent financing on satisfactory terms, changes in interest rates, availability of proceeds from our offering of shares, our tenants’ inability to manage rising costs, our ability to identify suitable investments, our ability to close on identified investments, tenant defaults and bankruptcies, inaccuracies of our accounting estimates, our ability to locate suitable tenants and operators for our properties and borrowers for our loans and the ability of such tenants and borrowers to make payments under their respective leases or loans. Given these uncertainties, we caution you not to place undue reliance on such statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect future events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

GENERAL

CNL Lifestyle Properties, Inc. was organized pursuant to the laws of the State of Maryland on August 11, 2003. We were formed primarily to acquire lifestyle properties in the United States that we generally lease on a long-term, triple-net basis (generally between five to 20 years, plus multiple renewal options) to tenants or operators that we consider to be significant industry leaders. We define lifestyle properties as those properties that reflect or are impacted by the social, consumption and entertainment values and choices of our society. To a lesser extent, we also make and acquire loans (including mortgage, mezzanine and other loans) or other Permitted Investments related to interests in real estate. We have retained CNL Lifestyle Company, LLC (our “Advisor”), as our Advisor to provide management, acquisition, advisory and administrative services.

One of our principal business objectives include investing in, and owning, a diversified portfolio of real estate investments. As of March 31, 2009, we owned 115 lifestyle properties, directly and indirectly, within the following asset classes: Ski and Mountain Lifestyle, Golf, Attractions and Additional Lifestyle Properties. Ten of these 115 properties are owned through unconsolidated ventures and three are located in Canada. We have also made a number of loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of approximately $166.8 million as of March 31, 2009.

We currently operate and have elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax at the corporate level to the extent that we distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our stockholders and meet other compliance requirements. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year in which our qualification is lost. Such an event could materially and adversely affect our net income and cash flows. However, we believe that we are organized and have operated in a manner to qualify for treatment as a REIT beginning with the year ended December 31, 2004. In addition, we intend to continue to be organized and to operate so as to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

Recent Market Conditions

The real estate industry and the U.S. economy as a whole were faced with significant challenges in 2008 that are anticipated to continue through at least 2009. We likely will continue to be impacted as certain tenants experience financial difficulties. However, we also believe that many of our properties are well positioned to manage through the recent decline in the U.S. economy because of their accessible drive-to locations and the types of activities and experiences offered at affordable prices. While individuals may shorten or forgo an expensive vacation to a destination resort, our research indicates that they still spend time with their families on leisure activities. For example, there has been a reported rise in “staycations”, which is generally defined as a period of time in which an individual or family engages in nearby leisure activities or takes regional day trips from their home to area attractions as opposed to taking destination or fly-to vacations. Even in a down market, spending on leisure pursuits continues and while certain consumers will reduce their spending on material items and luxury goods, they will continue to seek leisure and recreational outlets to create memories with family and friends. Many of the asset classes in which we operate are generally reporting sustained or only slightly reduced operating levels in comparison to prior years or seasons, while others continue to face challenges and uncertainties.

The global and U.S. economy continued to struggle during the first three months of 2009 and there is still a great deal of uncertainty regarding the duration of the economic downturn as well as the full impact of these events on the global and U.S. economy, including our properties. We continue to monitor economic events, capital markets and the financial stability of our tenants to minimize the impact on our business. While we remain cautious about the state of the economy, we also believe that these events may provide us with acquisition opportunities over the next year or two as property owners need to refinance or recapitalize their businesses and alternative financing sources are unavailable. As of April 30, 2009, we had approximately $210.7 million in cash available to support our business and to acquire new properties. The following is a summary of how the current economic crisis has impacted us to date and how we believe it may impact us going forward with respect to capital markets and our existing operations.

Impact on Capital Markets – We have continued to see a significant decrease in the availability of debt. When and if debt is available, we anticipate that our cost of borrowing will likely increase over historical rates. We continue to maintain a low leverage ratio, which was approximately 25.2% at March 31, 2009 with a long-term target of 50% debt to total assets. We have no near-term debt maturities, with the first significant maturity occurring in the middle of 2010. Consistent with the entire unlisted REIT industry, sales of our common stock were lower for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2008, however, our sales have gradually increased since the beginning of the year. Reduced sales of our stock and an inability to access debt markets may limit the amount of capital that we have available to take advantage of future acquisition opportunities.

Impact on Tenants’ Operations – A number of our tenants have experienced a decline in profitability or have been unable to obtain working capital lines of credit or renew existing lines of credit due to the current state of the economy and the capital markets. This has created working capital shortages for some tenants, particularly during off season months. To partially alleviate this issue, we have modified the leases for certain tenants such that rents are paid on a seasonal schedule with most, if not all, of the rent being paid during the tenant’s seasonally busy period. In some situations, we have or may consider modified lease terms to allow for rent deferrals or reductions for a period of time to provide temporary relief during this recessionary cycle that will become payable in later periods of the lease term. In the event that a tenant defaults and must be evicted from our property, applicable tax laws permit us to engage a third-party manager to operate the property on our behalf for a period of time until we can re-lease it to a new tenant. During this period, we would receive operating income from the property, which may be less than the rents that were contractually due under the prior leases. We believe we have sufficient cash on hand to offset any adverse effects on our operations that could result from a downturn in our tenants’ businesses in the coming year.

The general downturn in the economy has affected a number of our tenants’ operating performance. However, two of our golf tenants, Heritage Golf and Evergreen Alliance Golf Limited, L.P. (“EAGLE Golf”, formerly known as “EAGL”) were significantly affected during the past twelve months. Heritage Golf, our tenant at three of our golf properties, defaulted on two of its leases, Weston Hills Country Club and Valencia Country Club, in November 2008. Effective February 1, 2009, we terminated our leases at the Weston Hills and Valencia Country Clubs and engaged third-party management companies to operate these courses on our behalf. We recorded a $1.7 million loss on lease termination in connection with the write-off of deferred rents, in-place lease intangible assets and the assumption of a net working capital deficit, net of the $3.6 million security deposits. Additionally, at that time we commenced recording the golf operating revenues and expenses of both country clubs instead of rental income that was previously recorded. The net operating income from these courses is expected to be less than the rent we previously received for at least the next year. However, these courses are eventually expected to recover as the broader economy and housing market improves. Any taxable income from these courses will be subject to income tax until we re-lease these properties to new tenants.

Table of Contents

EAGLE Golf notified us in June 2008 that it was having working capital shortages and would be unable to pay rent. On March 31, 2009, we amended 43 of our leases with EAGLE Golf, reducing 2009 annualized base rent under the leases from approximately $37.8 million to $28.1 million and average annual (straight-lined) base rent over the lease term to approximately $31.5 million. Under the amendment, base rent will increase as property-level gross revenues increase. These amended terms will allow us to potentially recapture the original EAGLE Golf lease rates when and if market and operating conditions improve. Additionally, we deferred rent for the first six months of 2009 to enable the tenant to build up working capital. Such amounts are scheduled to be paid evenly over the final ten years of the lease term beginning in 2019. This deferral is not expected to impact net income (loss) or funds from operations (“FFO”) as a result of straight-lining rent in accordance with GAAP, but will reduce cash flows from operating activities in 2009.

As of the date of this filing, for 2009 we have deferred total rent payments relating to EAGLE Golf properties of approximately $14.0 million which represents 8.5 percent of our total scheduled rents during the year. As noted above, these deferrals will reduce cash flows from operating activities during 2009, but are not expected to impact net income (loss) or FFO as a result of the straight-lining of rent in accordance with GAAP. We believe that operations of these properties will ultimately return to pre-recession levels and that the deferred amounts are collectible. Further, we have evaluated and determined that these properties are not impaired based on the expected operating results of the properties over the estimated holding period and rents we expect to receive over the term of the leases.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

General

Our principal demand for funds during the short and long-term will be for property acquisitions, loans and other Permitted Investments and for the payment of operating expenses, debt service and distributions to stockholders. Generally, our cash needs for items other than property acquisitions and making loans will be generated from operations and our existing investments. The sources of our operating cash flows are primarily driven by the rental income and net security deposits received from leased properties, interest payments on the loans we make and interest earned on our cash balances and by distributions from our unconsolidated entities. A reduction in cash flows from any of these sources could significantly decrease our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. In addition, we have a revolving line of credit upon which we have drawn $100.0 million to ensure we have sufficient cash available for future acquisition and working capital needs.

We intend to continue to acquire properties, make loans and other Permitted Investments with proceeds from our public offerings, our line of credit and long-term debt financing. If sufficient capital is not raised, or if affordable debt is unavailable, it would limit our ability to acquire additional properties, make loans and Permitted Investments.

We intend to continue to pay distributions to our stockholders on a quarterly basis. Operating cash flows are expected to continue to be generated from properties, loans and other Permitted Investments to cover a significant portion of such distributions and any temporary shortfalls are expected to be funded with cash borrowed under our line of credit. In the event that our properties do not perform as expected or that we are unable to acquire properties at the pace expected, we may not be able to continue to pay distributions to stockholders or may need to reduce the distribution rate or borrow to continue paying distributions, all of which may negatively impact a stockholder’s investment in the long-term. Our ability to acquire properties is in part dependent upon our ability to locate and contract with suitable third-party tenants. The inability to locate suitable tenants may delay our ability to acquire certain properties. We are also challenged due to the complex and expensive structures we must use to acquire properties due to the tax, accounting and legal requirements involved with being a REIT. Delays in acquiring properties or making loans with the capital raised from our common stock offerings adversely affect our ability to pay distributions to our existing stockholders.

We have no significant debt maturities coming due until the middle of 2010 when our $100.0 million revolving line of credit matures. We have the ability to extend this maturity for two years subject to approval of the syndicate of lenders. However, there can be no assurance that such extension will be approved. The acquisition of additional real estate investments will be dependent upon the amount and pace of capital raised through our public offerings and our ability to obtain additional long-term debt financing, both of which have been affected by recent market conditions.

In addition to the shares sold through our public offerings, our Advisor purchased 20,000 shares for $200,000 preceding the commencement of our first offering. In December 2004, 117,706 restricted common shares were issued to CNL Financial Group, Inc., a company affiliated with our Advisor and wholly owned indirectly by our chairman of the board for $1.2 million, of which 50,046 shares are outstanding as of the date of this filing.

During the period from April 1, 2009 through May 8, 2009, we received additional subscription proceeds of approximately $22.9 million (2.3 million shares).

Borrowings

We have borrowed and intend to continue to borrow money to acquire properties and pay certain related fees. We have also borrowed, and may continue to borrow, money to pay distributions to stockholders. In general, we pledge our assets in connection with such borrowings. As discussed above, the availability of debt has been significantly restricted in recent months due to the global economic downturn. The aggregate amount of long-term financing is not expected to exceed 50% of our total assets on an annual basis. Under our articles of incorporation, the maximum amount we may borrow is 300% of our net assets in the absence of a satisfactory showing that a higher level of borrowing is appropriate. In order to borrow an amount in excess of 300% of our net assets, a majority of the independent members of our board of directors must approve the borrowing and the borrowing must be disclosed and explained to stockholders in our first quarterly report after such approval occurs.

As of March 31, 2009 our indebtedness consisted of the following (in thousands):

 

     March 31, 2009    December 31, 2008

Mortgages payable

   $ 474,251    $ 474,449

Operating Cash Flows

Our net cash flow provided by operating activities was approximately $31.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and consisted primarily of rental revenues, interest income on mortgages and other notes receivable, distributions from our unconsolidated entities and interest earned on cash balances, offset by payments made for operating expenses (including asset management fees to our Advisor and interest expense), as compared to the net cash flow from operating activities of approximately $35.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in operating cash flow is principally due to the deferral of rent for EAGLE Golf as discussed above, and the expensing of all acquisition fees and costs in 2009 in accordance with FAS 141R. Historically, acquisition fees and costs were capitalized and reflected as cash flows from investing activities. The recharacterization of these fees and costs to operating activities does not change the source of how the amounts are funded and paid with proceeds from our public offerings.

FOOTNOTES:

 

(1) The Wolf Partnership has been adversely affected by a regional economic downturn and by greater than expected competitive pressures, including competitor rate cuts and expansion. We expect that cash flows will continue to be affected by these economic and competitive pressures and do not expect to receive any distributions in the near term. On April 29, 2009, we entered into an agreement to acquire Great Wolf’s interest in the Wolf Partnership and will consolidate the operations into our financial statements.
(2) Retail Villages owned by the Intrawest Venture have been impacted by the current recession resulting in a reduction in cash distributions as compared with the prior year. We expect that cash flows from these properties will return to historical levels when the recession ends and the broader economy improves.

Property Acquisitions and Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

During the three months ended March 31, 2009, we acquired the following real estate property (in thousands):

We have committed to fund equipment replacements and other capital improvements for certain properties. We also have potential obligations to pay additional contingent purchase consideration related to some of the properties we have acquired if those properties achieve certain performance thresholds. See “Commitments, Contingencies and Contractual Obligations” for additional information.

During the first quarter of 2009, we contributed approximately $0.8 million to the Wolf Partnership to fund our pro rata share of amounts needed by the Partnership to fund debt service and working capital shortfalls at the properties.

Distributions

We intend to pay distributions to our stockholders on a quarterly basis. The amount of distributions declared to our stockholders will be determined by our board of directors and is dependent upon a number of factors, including the ratio of our expected and actual FFO to distributions paid, expected and actual net cash from operations for the year, our financial condition, a balanced analysis of both current and expected long-term stabilized cash flows from our properties, our objective of continuing to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, economic conditions, other operating trends, capital requirements and avoidance of volatility of distributions. Operating cash flows are expected to be generated from properties, loans and other Permitted Investments acquired or made by us.

We do not pay distributions from proceeds from our common stock offerings. We have historically made, and may continue to utilize, advances under our revolving line of credit to fund a portion of our distributions during the growth stage of our company and the economic downturn in order to avoid distribution volatility.

The distributions declared and paid during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were $34.9 million and $29.9 million, respectively, and exceeded net income for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 by approximately $37.0 million and $18.2 million, respectively. Distributions to stockholders may be considered a return of capital to the extent the amount of such distributions exceeds net income calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Accordingly, for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, approximately 100.0% and 60.9%, of the distributions represented a return of capital, if calculated using GAAP net income as the basis. Approximately 78.7% and 49.3% of the distributions for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, constitute a return of capital for federal income tax purposes. No amounts distributed to stockholders are required to be or have been treated as a return of capital for purposes of calculating the stockholders’ return on their invested capital as described in our advisory agreement.

The following table compares cash flows provided by operations to cash distributions declared (in thousands):

 

     Three Months Ended
March 31,
     2009     2008

Cash flows provided by operations

   $ 31,723     $ 35,922

Distributions declared and paid

     34,916       29,911
              

Excess (deficiency)

   $ (3,193 )   $ 6,011
              

For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the deficiency was primarily due to the deferral of rent for EAGLE Golf as discussed above and the expensing of acquisition fees and costs in accordance with FAS 141R and presenting such amounts in operating activities as opposed to an investing activity, as presented in prior periods. The recharacterization of acquisition fees and costs to operating activities does not change the source of how the amounts are funded and paid with proceeds from our public offerings. We paid all distributions from cash generated from operating activities and our line of credit.

On January 27, 2009, our board of directors declared a special distribution of $0.035 per share to stockholders of record as of March 31, 2009. Additionally, we increased our monthly distribution rate from $0.05125 to $0.0521 per share effective April 1, 2009. The special distribution, totaling approximately $8.0 million, will be paid on June 30, 2009 along with our quarterly distribution. On an annualized basis, the increased rate, excluding the special distribution, would represent a 6.25% return if paid for twelve months based on the current $10.00 per share offering price of our common stock.

Common Stock Redemptions

For the three months ended March 31, 2009, approximately 2.3 million shares were redeemed at an average price per share of approximately $9.55, for a total of approximately $21.7 million of which approximately $5.4 million was payable as of March 31, 2009. The redemption price per share is based on the amount of time that the redeeming stockholder has held the applicable shares, but in no event will the redemption price be greater than the price of shares sold to the public in any offering.

In the event there are insufficient funds to redeem all of the shares for which redemption requests have been submitted, and we determine to redeem shares, we will commit to redeem shares on a pro rata basis at the end of each quarter, with the actual redemption occurring at the beginning of the next quarter. A stockholder whose shares are not redeemed due to insufficient funds in that quarter can ask that the request to redeem the shares be honored at such time as sufficient funds exist. In such case, the redemption request will be retained and such shares will be redeemed before any subsequently received redemption requests are honored. Redemption shares are considered retired and will not be reissued.

Stock Issuance Costs and Other Related Party Arrangements

Certain of our directors and officers hold similar positions with CNL Lifestyle Company, LLC, which is both a stockholder and our Advisor, and CNL Securities Corp. (our “Managing Dealer”), which is the managing dealer for our public offerings. Our chairman of the board indirectly owns a controlling interest in CNL Financial Group, Inc., the parent company of our Advisor and Managing Dealer. These entities receive fees and compensation in connection with our stock offerings and the acquisition, management and sale of our assets. Amounts incurred relating to these transactions were approximately $11.8 million and $22.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Of these amounts, approximately $3.9 million is included in the due to affiliates line item in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of both March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. Our Advisor and its affiliates are entitled to reimbursement of certain expenses and amounts incurred on our behalf in connection with our organization, offering, acquisitions, and operating activities. Reimbursable expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were approximately $2.4 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

Pursuant to the advisory agreement, we will not reimburse our Advisor for any amount by which total operating expenses paid or incurred by us exceed the greater of 2.0% of average invested assets or 25.0% of net income (the “Expense Cap”) in any expense year. For the expense year ended March 31, 2009, operating expenses did not exceed the Expense Cap.

We maintain accounts at a bank in which our chairman and vice-chairman serve as directors. We had deposits of approximately $25.6 million and $13.7 million as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Accounting for Property Acquisitions – Upon acquisition of properties, we recognize the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised), “Business Combinations” (“FAS 141R”), No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). For each acquisition, we record the fair value of the land, buildings, equipment, intangible assets, including in-place lease origination costs and above or below market lease values, and any contingent purchase consideration. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair values are determined based on incorporating market participant assumptions, discounted cash flow models and our estimate reflecting the facts and circumstances of each acquisition.

Acquisition Fees and Costs – Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 141 (revised), “Business Combinations” (“FAS 141R”) and immediately began expensing all acquisition fees and costs. Prior to the adoption of FAS 141R, acquisition fees and costs were capitalized and allocated to the cost basis of the assets acquired. The adoption of FAS 141R had, and will continue to have, a significant impact on our operating results due to the highly acquisitive nature of our business. FAS 141R also causes a decrease in cash flows from operating activities, as acquisition fees and costs historically have been included in cash flows from investing activities, but are treated as cash flows from operating activities under FAS141R. Upon adoption of FAS 141R, we expensed approximately $5.9 million in acquisition fees and costs for acquisitions that were being pursued in 2008 but which did not close as of December 31, 2008. Additionally, we expensed approximately $1.6 million in new acquisition fees and costs incurred during the three month period ended March 31, 2009.

Fair Value of Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities – Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted FAS 157 for our non-financial assets and liabilities. The standard affects how fair value is determined for non-financial assets such as goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets, including the incorporation of market participant assumptions in determining the fair value.

See our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 for a summary of our other Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.

Rental income from operating leases. The increase in rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in 2008 was principally due to the acquisition of 11 properties after March 31, 2008. As of March 31, 2009 and 2008, the weighted-average base rent rate for our portfolio of leased properties was 9.0% and 9.3%, respectively. These rates are based on annualized straight-lined base rent due under our leases and the weighted average value of our real estate investment properties subject to operating leases. The decrease was primarily due to the reduction of rent for EAGLE Golf properties. Additionally, the weighted-average lease rate of our portfolio will fluctuate based on our asset mix and timing of property acquisitions. The following analysis quantifies the total rental income generated from our properties based on the period in which the properties were acquired and leased, and the increases in rental income attributable to those properties on a comparative basis, period to period:

FOOTNOTE:

 

(1) This number does not include either the Orlando Grand Plaza Hotel & Suites, which is currently closed for redevelopment or the Talega Golf course property, which was sold on December 12, 2008 and is included in discontinued operations.

The 23.4% decrease in rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in 2008 is principally attributable to the reduction of rent for EAGLE Golf and Heritage Golf, as previously discussed. These amounts were offset by greater contingent rent being earned during 2009 than for the same period in 2008 and rent increases from capital expansion projects that have increased the lease basis of certain of our properties during the last year. We acquired four properties between January 1, 2008 and March 31, 2008 which generated approximately $1.4 million and $0.7 million, or 2.5% and 1.4%, of total rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These four properties accounted for 9.5% of the total increase in rental income period-over-period. Approximately $8.2 million, or 15.0%, of total rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was derived from properties that were acquired after March 31, 2008.

Interest income on mortgages and other notes receivable. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, we recorded interest income totaling approximately $3.4 million on our nine performing loans with an aggregate principal balance of $126.8 million. Comparatively, for the three months ended March 31, 2008, we recorded interest income of approximately $1.3 million from our performing loans with an aggregate principal balance of approximately $108.0 million. The increase is attributable to additional loans we made subsequent to March 31, 2008. As of March 31, 2009 and 2008, we had one non-performing loan with a principal balance of $40.0 million for which no interest income has been recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.

Other operating income and expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, other operating income and expenses primarily consist of the operations of the Weston Hills and Valencia Country Clubs and the operating expenses associated with our apartment complex in Boca Raton, Florida as well as approximately $1.0 million in bad debt expense for a capital expenditure reserve receivable which we believe may be uncollectible at one of our properties. During the same period in 2008, other operating expenses consisted of only the operating expenses of our apartment complex in Boca Raton, Florida.

Asset management fees to advisor. Monthly asset management fees of 0.08334% of invested assets are paid to our Advisor for the acquisition of real estate assets and making loans. Total asset management fees were approximately $6.1 million and $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase in fees is due to the acquisition of additional real estate properties we acquired and loans we made.

Acquisition fees and costs. Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted FAS 141R and immediately began expensing all acquisition fees and costs as incurred. Prior to the adoption of FAS 141R, acquisition fees and costs were capitalized and allocated to the cost basis of the assets we acquired. As a result of the adoption of FAS 141R, we were required to expense approximately $5.9 million in acquisition fees and costs that were previously incurred and capitalized in our balance sheet for acquisitions that were being pursued, but which did not close by December 31, 2008. Additionally, we expensed approximately $1.6 million in new acquisition fees and costs incurred during the three month period ended March 31, 2009.

Table of Contents

General and administrative. General and administrative expenses were approximately $2.7 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase is primarily due to an increase in account maintenance fees under a new fee structure charged by our new stock transfer agent of approximately $0.6 million.

Ground lease and permit fees. Ground lease payments, concession holds and land permit fees are generally based on a percentage of gross revenue of the underlying property over certain thresholds and are paid by the tenants in accordance with the terms of our triple-net leases with those tenants. These expenses have corresponding revenues included in the rental income described above. For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, ground lease, concession holds and land permit fees were approximately $2.7 million and $2.1 million, respectively. The increase is attributable to the growth of our property portfolio. As of March 31, 2009, we owned 105 consolidated properties of which 36 properties are subject to ground lease, concession holds or land permit fees.

Repairs and maintenance. Repairs and maintenance expense was approximately $0.8 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase is primarily due to repairs and maintenance on existing and newly acquired properties. These expenditures are from capital reserve accounts for replacements, repairs and maintenance at our properties, such as periodic repainting of buildings, which do not substantially enhance the properties or increase the estimated useful lives and therefore cannot be capitalized.

Loss on lease termination. Loss on lease termination of approximately $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 is attributable to Heritage Golf defaulting two of its leases as discussed above.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses were approximately $28.6 million and $22.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase is primarily due to the acquisition of real estate properties acquired for the three months ended March 31, 2008 of which partial depreciation and amortization were recognized as compared to full period during the same period in 2009 coupled with acquisition of additional real estate properties from April 1, 2008 thru March 31, 2009.

Operating income. Operating income was approximately $6.8 million and $15.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to the adoption of FAS 141R which requires the expensing of all acquisition fees and costs, totaling approximately $7.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, as operating costs. In addition, increases in operating income from new real estate properties acquired subsequent to March 31, 2008 were offset by the reduction in rent from the amended leases with EAGLE Golf. See rental income from operating leases above for additional information.

Interest and other income. The decrease in interest income is primarily due to a general reduction in rates paid by depository institutions on short-term deposits during 2009 as compared to 2008. We continue to monitor depository institutions that hold our cash and cash equivalents. Our emphasis is primarily on safety of principal and secondarily on maximizing yield on those funds. During the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, we received an average yield of 1.26% and 2.63%, respectively. Our average uninvested offering proceeds, based on month-end balances, was approximately $177.5 million and $200.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively

Interest expense and loan cost amortization. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009 increased as compared to the same period in 2008 is attributable to the $100.0 million revolving line of credit which was drawn on in October 2008. We recorded approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to $0 during the same period in 2008 as well as an increase in notes and mortgages payable as a result of acquisitions of properties. As of March 31, 2009, we had loan obligations totaling $537.3 million with a weighted average fixed interest rate of 6.61%.

Equity in earnings is recognized using the hypothetical liquidation book value (“HLBV”) method of accounting which means we recognize income in each period equal to the change in our share of assumed proceeds from the liquidation of the underlying unconsolidated entities at depreciated book value. Because our equity in earnings is calculated in this manner due to the preferences we receive upon liquidation, we have historically recognized more income than the underlying unconsolidated entities have generated and our partners have historically been allocated significant losses which offset the earnings that we have recorded for these entities. Equity in earnings decreased by approximately $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in 2008, primarily due to an increase in the loss we were allocated by both the Wolf Partnership and the Intrawest Venture of approximately $0.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009. The HLBV method of recognizing earnings and losses from the unconsolidated entities is not expected to have an impact on the distributions we receive. However, it will likely result in reductions or fluctuations in our net income, earnings per share, Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and FFO per share. We received cash distributions from our unconsolidated entities of approximately $2.7 million and $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31 2009 and 2009, respectively.

The Wolf Partnership continues to be affected by the decline in the U.S. economy, a regional economic downturn and competitive pressures at both the Wisconsin Dells and Sandusky, Ohio locations. The effects of the economic downturn and competitive pressure are expected to continue to have an impact on our earnings in 2009. Although we continue to recognize losses from our investment in this partnership and have received no cash distributions from the venture in 2008 or 2009, we have the intent and ability to hold this investment until the markets and economy recover. More importantly, the terms of the partnership agreement also entitle us to a preference over our partner so that we receive all distributable cash up to 11% of our unreturned partner’s capital ahead of any distributions to our partner. On April 29, 2009, we entered into an agreement to acquire Great Wolf’s interest in the Wolf Partnership and to enter into new management and license agreements for the Dells property only. In addition, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent to re-brand and lease the Sandusky property to an unrelated third-party tenant. See “Event Occurring Subsequent to March 31, 2009” for additional information. Upon completion of the acquisition, Sandusky and Dells properties’ operations will be consolidated and we will no longer recognize earnings and losses in the Wolf Partnership under HLBV.

The Intrawest Venture was significantly impacted by a reduction in retail spending at the resort village retail locations, which is a direct result of the current recession. While visitation at many of these locations held up reasonably well, spending by consumers during their visits was reduced. We believe that operations at these properties will return to historical levels when the broader economy improves. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2009, the Intrawest Venture determined that it made certain accounting errors in 2008 which totaled approximately $0.4 million. We concluded that these errors were not material to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 or the three months ended March 31, 2009, nor do we expect the amount to be material to the financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2009. As such, we recorded the cumulative effect of these adjustments during the three months ended March 31, 2009, which resulted in a reduction in equity in earnings of $0.4 million during the first quarter of 2009.

Discontinued operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, results of discontinued operations were approximately zero and $56,000, respectively, relating to the Talega Golf Course property which was sold in December 2008.

Net income and earnings per share. The decrease in earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to (i) the adoption of FAS 141R which requires the expensing of all acquisition fees and costs as operating costs (ii) a reduction in equity in earnings from the Wolf Partnership and Intrawest Venture (iii) the reduction in rental income from EAGLE Golf and (iv) a reduction in the rates paid by depository institutions on short-term deposits. Our net income and earnings per share may be volatile as we are still in the early stages of operation and are experiencing significant growth. These performance measures are affected by the pace at which we raise offering proceeds and the time it takes to accumulate and invest such proceeds in real estate acquisitions and other income-producing investments. The accumulation of funds over time in order to make large individually significant acquisitions can be dilutive to the earnings per share ratio.

OTHER

Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations

We consider FFO to be an indicative measure of operating performance due to the significant effect of depreciation of real estate assets on net income. FFO, based on the revised definition adopted by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and as used herein, means net income determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We believe that by excluding the effect of depreciation and amortization, FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between other equity REITs. FFO was developed by NAREIT as a relative measure of performance of an equity REIT in order to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP. However, FFO (i) does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP (which, unlike FFO, generally reflects all cash effects of transactions and other events that enter into the determination of net income), (ii) is not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and (iii) should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP as an indication of our operating performance, or to cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of either liquidity or our ability to make distributions. FFO as presented may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other companies.

Table of Contents

Accordingly, we believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the consolidated historical operating results, FFO should be considered in conjunction with our net income and cash flows as reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

Modified FFO excludes acquisition fees and costs which were required to be expensed effective January 1, 2009 in connection with the adoption of FAS 141R. Acquisition fees and costs include acquisition fees paid to our advisor for the selection, purchase, development or construction of properties or the making or acquisition of any loan or other Permitted Investments as well as due diligence costs, legal fees and other closing costs incurred in connection with such investments. These costs are paid for with proceeds from our common stock offerings or debt proceeds. Prior to January 1, 2009, acquisition fees and costs were capitalized and allocated to the cost of properties acquired or investment made and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of our investments. We expect to incur significant acquisition fees and costs while our stock offerings are ongoing and we are in the highly acquisitive stage of our business life cycle.

Accordingly, we believe that in order to facilitate comparability and a clearer understanding of our period –over–period ongoing operating results, and to remove the effects of acquisition fees and costs that are funded through offering proceeds rather than paid with cash generated from operations, which is more reflective of a stabilized asset base, Modified FFO should be considered in addition to net income and cash flows as reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as well as FFO described above.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income to FFO and Modified FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 (in thousands):

FOOTNOTE:

 

(1) This amount represents our share of the FFO adjustments allowable under the NAREIT definition (primarily depreciation) multiplied by the percentage of income or loss recognized under the HLBV method.

Total FFO decreased from approximately $38.2 million to $30.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. FFO per share decreased from approximately $0.19 to $0.13 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease in FFO and FFO per share are attributable principally to the reduction in net income as a result of the adoption of FAS 141R as mentioned above coupled with an increase in losses from the Wolf Partnership and the Intrawest Venture, a reduction in rental income from EAGLE Golf and a reduction in rates paid by depository institutions on short-term deposits on a higher amount of uninvested cash.

Modified FFO decreased from approximately $38.2 million to $38.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Modified FFO per share decreased from approximately $0.19 to $0.17 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease in Modified FFO is attributable principally to an increase in losses from the Wolf Partnership and the Intrawest Venture, the reduction in rental income from EAGLE Golf and a reduction in rates paid by depository institutions on short-term deposits and higher amount of uninvested cash. In addition, the decrease in Modified FFO on a per share basis was due to dilution, as there was a greater number of weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2009 versus the same period in 2008.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

See our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 for a summary of our Off Balance Sheet Arrangements.

EVENTS OCCURRING SUBSEQUENT TO MARCH 31, 2009

Our board of directors declared distributions of $0.0521 per share to stockholders of record at the close of business on April 1, 2009 and May 1, 2009. These distributions are to be paid by June 30, 2009.

On April 29, 2009, we entered into an agreement with Great Wolf to acquire its 30.3% interest in the Wolf Partnership for $6.0 million which will result in our ownership of 100% of the venture that owns two Great Wolf waterpark resorts. In connection with our acquisition of its partnership interest, Great Wolf has agreed to terminate the existing management and license agreements for the Great Wolf Lodge-Dells and Great Wolf Lodge-Sandusky properties and to enter into a new management and license agreement for the Dells property only.

In connection with our agreement to acquire Great Wolf’s share of the Wolf Partnership, we have also entered into a non-binding letter of intent to re-brand and lease the Sandusky property to an unrelated third-party tenant. Upon completion of the acquisition, Sandusky and Dells properties’ operations will be consolidated into our financial statements. These transactions are expected to close during 2009 and are subject to lender approval. There can be no assurance that we will ultimately acquire Great Wolf’s interest in the Wolf Partnership, enter into new management and license agreements for the Dells property or re-brand and enter into a lease for the Sandusky property.

On April 30, 2009, one of our borrowers paid off their loan of approximately $10.1 million, including interest.

On May 6, 2009, we acquired Hawaiian Waters Adventure Park in Kapolei on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu from Village Roadshow Theme Parks USA, Inc. (“Village Roadshow”) for a purchase price of approximately $15.0 million. We agreed to pay additional purchase consideration of up to $14.7 million upon the property achieving certain financial performance goals over the next three years. The park is leased to Village Roadshow under a long-term triple-net lease for a term of 20 years with six five-year renewal options.

On May 13, 2009, we entered into an agreement to redevelop our Orlando Grand Plaza Hotel & Suite property located in Florida for approximately $28.2 million. In addition, we executed an agreement to lease the property to a third-party tenant once the hotel reopens, which is expected to occur in April 2010.

FOOTNOTES:

 

(1) We have committed to fund our pro rata share of additional contingent purchase price for one of our unconsolidated resort village properties owned by the Intrawest Venture, totaling approximately $0.6 million. The additional contingent purchase price is not to provide compensation for services but is based the property achieving certain financial performance goals. The additional contingent purchase price is expected to be paid during the second quarter of 2009.

Pursuant to the purchase agreement entered into in connection with the purchase of Okemo Mountain Resort we are obligated to pay additional purchase consideration of $14.4 million in the form of a note payable to seller upon receipt of a ground lease extension from the State of Vermont for the underlying land at the resort. The additional purchase price consideration is not to provide compensation for services but is based on the renewal of the ground lease.

 

(2) We have committed to fund equipment replacements and other capital improvement projects on our existing properties.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We may be exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of long-term debt used to acquire properties, make loans and other Permitted Investments. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve our objectives, we expect to borrow and lend primarily at fixed rates or variable rates with the lowest margins available, and in some cases, with the ability to convert variable rates to fixed rates. With regard to variable rate financing, we will assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities.

FOOTNOTES:

 

(1) The fair value of our fixed-rate debt was determined using discounted cash flows based on market interest rates as of March 31, 2009. We determined market rates through discussions with our existing lenders pricing our loans with similar terms and current rates and spreads.
(2) The amount includes our revolving line of credit of $100.0 million and the Bretton Woods construction line of credit of approximately $24.3 million.
(3) The 30-day LIBOR rate was approximately 0.50% at March 31, 2009.
(4) On December 31, 2007, we obtained a loan for approximately $85.4 million. The loan bears interest at 30-day LIBOR plus 1.72% on the first $57.3 million, 30-day LIBOR plus 1.5% (of which 1.25% is deferred until maturity) on the next $16.7 million and 30-day LIBOR plus 1.5% on the remaining $11.4 million (of which approximately all is deferred until maturity). On January 2, 2008, we entered into two interest rate swaps to hedge the variable interest rate. The instruments, which were designated as cash flow hedges of interest payments from their inception, swap the rate on the first $57.3 million of debt to a blended fixed rate of 6.0% per year and on the next $16.7 million to a blended fixed rate of 5.8% for the term of the loan (of which 1.25% is deferred until maturity.) The fair value of these instruments has been recorded as a liability of approximately $7.9 million.
(5) The estimated fair value of our variable rate debt was determined using discounted cash flows based on market interest rates as of March 31, 2009. We determined market rates through discussions with our existing lenders pricing our loans with similar terms and current rates and spreads.

Management estimates that a hypothetical one-percentage point increase in LIBOR would have resulted in additional interest costs of approximately $286,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. This sensitivity analysis contains certain simplifying assumptions, and although it gives an indication of our exposure to changes in interest rates it is not intended to predict future results as our actual results will likely vary.

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as a result of our direct ownership of one property in Canada which is leased to a third-party tenant. The lease payments we receive under the triple-net lease are denominated in Canadian dollars. However, management does not believe this to be a significant risk or that currency fluctuations would result in a significant impact to our overall results of operations.

We are also indirectly exposed to foreign currency risk related to our investment in unconsolidated Canadian entities and interest rate risk from debt at our unconsolidated entities. However, we believe our risk of foreign exchange loss and exposure to credit and interest rate risks are mitigated as a result of our right to receive a preferred return on our investments in our unconsolidated entities. Our preferred returns as stated in the governing venture agreements are denominated in U.S. dollars.

 

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

In the most recent fiscal quarter, there was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined under Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings – None

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The current economic slowdown has affected certain of the lifestyle properties in which we invest, and the financial difficulties of our tenants and operators could adversely affect us. The current economic slowdown has affected certain of the lifestyle properties in which we invest, and a prolonged or expanded period of economic difficulty could adversely affect other of our lifestyle properties. Although a general downturn in the real estate industry would be expected to adversely affect the value of our properties, a downturn in the ski, golf, attractions and other lifestyle industries in which we invest could compound the adverse affect. Economic weakness combined with higher costs, especially for energy, food and commodities, has put considerable pressure on consumer spending, which, along with the lack of available debt, has resulted in certain of our tenants experiencing poorer financial and operating performance over the past twelve months than in prior periods. Reductions in consumer spending due to weakness in the economy and uncertainties regarding future economic prospects have adversely affected some of our tenants’ abilities to pay rent to us, resulting in a renegotiation of certain of their leases with us or in the termination of those leases, and we believe that additional tenants could experience similar difficulties in the event of a continued downturn in the economy. The continuation or expansion of such events could have a negative impact on our results of operations and our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. In addition, negative events impacting the capital markets may reduce the amount of working capital available to our tenants which may affect their ability to pay rent.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Use of Proceeds

As of March 31, 2009, we sold approximately $2.4 billion (236.6 million shares) in connection with our offerings, including approximately $142.7 million (15.0 million shares) purchased through our reinvestment plan. The shares sold and the gross offering proceeds received from our offerings do not include 20,000 shares purchased by our Advisor for $200,000 preceding the commencement of our 1st Offering or 117,706 restricted common shares issued for $1.2 million in December 2004 to CNL Financial Group, Inc., a parent company of our Advisor and wholly owned indirectly by our chairman of the board and his wife. As of March 31, 2009, we incurred the following aggregate expenses in connection with the issuance of our registered securities on our offerings (in thousands):

 

Selling commissions

   $ 151,499

Marketing support fee and due diligence expense reimbursements

     63,531

Offering costs and expenses

     36,760
      

Offering and stock issuance costs

   $ 251,790
      

Selling commissions, marketing support fee and due diligence expenses are paid to our Managing Dealer and a substantial portion of the selling commissions, marketing support fees and all of the due diligence expenses are reallowed to third-party participating broker-dealers. Other offering costs and expenses have been incurred by, and are payable to, an affiliate of our Advisor.

Our net offering proceeds, after deducting the total expenses described above, were approximately $2.1 billion at March 31, 2009. As of March 31, 2009, we invested approximately $1.8 billion in properties, loans and other Permitted Investments.

Redemption of Shares and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Pursuant to our share redemption plan, any stockholder who has held shares for not less than one year may present all or any portion equal to at least 25.0% of their shares to us for redemption at prices based on the amount of time that the redeeming stockholder has held the applicable shares, but in no event greater than the price of shares sold to the public in any offering. We may, at our discretion, redeem the shares, subject to certain conditions and limitations under the redemption plan. However, at no time during a 12-month period may we redeem more than 5.0% of the weighted average number of our outstanding common stock at the beginning of such 12-month period. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, we have redeemed the following shares for approximately $21.7 million:
