Denholtz had previously made principal payments in the amount of approximately $1 million. The balance on the two promissory notes, each in the original principal amount of $1.5 million, has been reduced to zero. One note has been completely discharged. Under certain circumstances relating to the settlement between Denholtz and Banyan announced on May 15, 2002, an additional sum of up to $93,000 may become due on the second note. Banyan is holding that note pending confirmation of complete discharge, expected to occur on or about June 21, 2002. L.G. Schafran, Interim President, CEO and Chairman of Banyan, commenting on the payment, said: "We are pleased to announce receipt of these funds, which furthers our Plan of Termination and Liquidation. We expect to combine these proceeds with the net proceeds we expect to receive upon the closing of the sale of our Northlake property, currently scheduled for July 17, 2002, and anticipate making another liquidating distribution to shareholders in the third calendar quarter." Banyan Strategic Realty Trust is an equity Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) that adopted a Plan of Termination and Liquidation on January 5, 2001. On May 17, 2001, the Trust sold approximately 85% of its portfolio in a single transaction. Other properties were sold on April 1, 2002 and May 1, 2002. Banyan now owns a leasehold interest in one (1) real estate property located in Atlanta, Georgia, representing approximately 9% of its original portfolio.
