NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES AND LIQUIDITY

 

Liquidity. Management believes that TCI will generate excess cash from property operations in 2011; such excess, however, will not be sufficient to discharge all of TCI’s obligations as they become due. Management intends to sell income producing assets, refinance real estate and obtain additional borrowings primarily secured by real estate to meet its liquidity requirements.

 

Partnership Buyouts. TCI is the limited partner in three partnerships that are currently constructing residential properties and two partnerships in which the residential properties are substantially complete. As permitted in the respective partnership agreements, TCI intends to purchase the interests of the general and any other limited partners in these partnerships subsequent to the completion of these projects. The amounts paid to buy out the non-affiliated partners are limited to development fees earned by the non-affiliated partners, and are set forth in the respective partnership agreements.

 

 

Other Litigation. The ownership of property and provision of services to the public as tenants entails an inherent risk of liability. Although the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various items of litigation incidental to and in the ordinary course of its business, in the opinion of Management, the outcome of such litigation will not have a material adverse impact upon the Company’s financial condition, results of operation or liquidity.
