2.	PLAN OF LIQUIDATION

Due to the ongoing economic downturn, given our continuing decline in revenues, expected losses from continuing operations and negative cash flows from operating activities, the Board of Directors of Presidential were concerned in 2010 that Presidential would not have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to operate in future years without sales of its assets.

As a result, the Company and its Board of Directors sought stockholder approval for the liquidation of the Company, and on January 20, 2011, stockholders approved a plan of liquidation (“Plan of Liquidation”), which provides for the sale of all of the Company’s assets over time and the distribution of the net proceeds of sale to the stockholders after satisfaction of the Company’s liabilities. Notwithstanding such stockholder approval, the Board of Directors reserves the right to consider other strategic alternatives. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to sell any of its assets at prices that the Board of Directors deems fair or that the Company will be able to enter into a satisfactory strategic transaction. Furthermore, the Company intends to continue to operate in a manner to permit it to qualify as a REIT unless and until it liquidates. However, no assurance can be given that it will be able to continue to operate in such a manner or to remain qualified.

In connection with the approval of the Plan of Liquidation, the Company adopted the liquidation basis of accounting as of January 1, 2011. Under the liquidation basis of accounting, the Company’s assets are stated at their estimated net realizable value and the Company’s liabilities are stated at their estimated settlement amounts. Although the Plan of Liquidation was not approved by the stockholders until January 20, 2011, the Company is using the liquidation basis of accounting effective January 1, 2011. Any activity between January 1, 2011 and January 20, 2011 would not be materially different under the going concern basis.

- Definition

Disclosure of Liquidation for reporting when there is a substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time (generally a year from the balance sheet date). Disclose: (a) pertinent conditions and events giving rise to the assessment of substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, (b) the possible effects of such conditions and events, (c) management's evaluation of the significance of those conditions and events and any mitigating factors, (d) possible discontinuance of operations, (e) management's plans (including relevant prospective financial information), and (f) information about the recoverability or classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts or classification of liabilities. If management's plans alleviate the substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosure of the principal conditions and events that initially raised the substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern would be expected to be considered. Disclose whether operations for the current or prior years generated sufficient cash to cover current obligations, whether waivers were obtained from creditors relating to the company's default under the provisions of debt agreements and possible effects of such conditions and events, such as: whether there is a possible need to obtain additional financing (debt or equity) or to liquidate certain holdings to offset future cash flow deficiencies. Disclose appropriate parent company information when parent is dependent upon remittances from subsidiaries to satisfy its obligations.
