NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.General

LTC Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, is a real estate investment trust (or REIT) that invests primarily in long term care properties through mortgage loans, property lease transactions and other investments.

In accordance with “plain English” guidelines provided by the Securities and Exchange Commission, whenever we refer to “our company” or to “us,” or use the terms “we” or “our,” we are referring to LTC Properties, Inc. and/or its subsidiaries.

We have prepared consolidated financial statements included herein without audit (except for the balance sheet at December 31, 2004 which is audited) and in the opinion of management have included all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlled partnership.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Control over the partnership is based on the provisions of the partnership agreement that provides us with a controlling financial interest in the partnership.  Under the terms of the partnership agreement, our company, as general partner, is responsible for the management of the partnership’s assets, business and affairs.  Certain of our rights and duties in management of the partnership include making all operating decisions, setting the capital budget, executing all contracts, making all employment decisions, and the purchase and disposition of assets.  The general partner is responsible for the ongoing, major, and central operations of the partnership and makes all management decisions.  In addition, the general partner assumes the risk for all operating losses, capital losses, and is entitled to substantially all capital gains (appreciation).

The limited partners have virtually no rights and are precluded from taking part in the operation, management or control of the partnership.  The limited partners are also precluded from transferring their partnership interests without the express permission of the general partner.  However, we can transfer our interest without consultation or permission of the limited partners.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, we believe that the disclosures in the accompanying financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation and as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (or SFAS) No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”  The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.

No provision has been made for federal or state income taxes.  Our company qualifies as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  As such, we are not taxed on income that is distributed to our stockholders.

2.Real Estate Investments

Owned Properties.  At June 30, 2005, our investment in owned properties consisted of 57 skilled nursing properties with a total of 6,626 beds, 88 assisted living properties with a total of 4,175 units and one school in 23 states.

During the three months ended June 30, 2005, we converted two mortgage loans on two skilled nursing properties with a total of 87 beds into owned properties.  One of the mortgage loans with a principal balance of $694,000 was converted through an auction in accordance with a bankruptcy court order that approved the sale of substantially all of the borrower’s assets to us in exchange for $310,000 in cash plus our bankruptcy claim of approximately $956,000.  This property is leased to a third party under a 10-year lease with two five year renewal options.  The initial annual lease payment is $180,000 and increases 2.5% annually.  The initial annual lease rate is based on our commitment to fund up to $300,000 for capital improvements as described in Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies.  The other mortgage loan with a principal balance of $996,000 was converted to an owned property through a deed-in-lieu foreclosure transaction.  This property is leased to a third party under a 10-year lease with three five year options to extend.  The initial annual lease payment beginning in December 2005 is $129,000 and increases 2% annually beginning July 1, 2007.  The lease also provides the lessee with an option to purchase the property for $1,050,000 plus the cost of our capital improvements less a credit of 1% of the purchase price per year for each year of the term of the lease immediately preceding the lessee’s exercise of the purchase option.  The lessee may exercise the purchase option only in the second and fourth year of the lease term.

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we purchased a 114 bed skilled nursing property in Texas for $2,624,000.  The property together with another skilled nursing property we own is leased to a third party operator under a 20-year master lease with two five year options to extend.  The initial annual master lease payment is $648,000 and increases 2% annually.  We also invested $151,000 in capital improvements to existing properties during the first half of 2005.

During the three months ended June 30, 2005, we sold vacant land adjacent to an assisted living property in Ohio.  We received $102,000 in cash and recognized a $30,000 gain on the sale.

In accordance with SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” properties held for sale at any reporting period include only those properties available for immediate sale in their present condition and for which management believes that it is probable that a sale of the property will be completed within one year.  Properties held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs.  No depreciation expense is recognized on properties held for sale.  In addition, the operating results of real estate assets designated as held for sale and all gains and losses from real estate sold are included in discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of income.

Mortgage Loans.  At June 30, 2005, we had investments in 50 mortgage loans secured by first mortgages on 43 skilled nursing properties with a total of 5,233 beds, 13 assisted living properties with 933 units and one school located in 22 states.  At June 30, 2005, the mortgage loans had interest rates ranging from 6.0% to 12.8% and maturities ranging from 2005 to 2019.  In addition, the loans contain certain guarantees, provide for certain facility fees and generally have 25-year amortization schedules.  The majority of the mortgage loans provide for annual increases in the interest rate based upon a specified increase of 10 to 25 basis points.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, we originated one new mortgage loan secured by a skilled nursing property with 104 beds in Georgia.  The principal balance of the new loan is $5,000,000 and the amount funded to the borrower after fees and tax impounds was $4,928,000.  The mortgage loan has a five year term and bears interest at 10% in the first year and increases 12.5 basis points annually thereafter.  In addition, during the second quarter 2005, we funded an additional $102,000 under an existing mortgage loan for capital improvements.

Additionally, we acquired $10,469,000 face value mortgage loans secured by five skilled nursing properties from a REMIC pool we originated.  We exchanged the REMIC Certificates we owned and paid $855,000 in cash, which represents the outstanding loan balances and accrued interest of outside REMIC Certificate holders which resulted in the dissolution of the 1996-1 REMIC Pool.  The weighted average effective interest rate on these loans is approximately 11.9%.

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we acquired a mortgage loan on a 151 bed skilled nursing property located in California from a REMIC pool we originated.  We paid $2,254,000, which represents the outstanding loan balance.  During the second quarter of 2005, this loan was repaid in full.

Also during the six months ended June 30, 2005, we originated one mortgage loan in the amount of $500,000 secured by two skilled nursing properties located in Texas with a total of 124 beds.  Subsequently, this note was paid in full.  For further discussion see Note 3. Notes Receivable.  We also originated three new mortgage loans secured by three properties with a total of 125 assisted living units and 289 skilled nursing beds.  The combined principal balance of the new loans is $10,763,000 and the amount funded to the borrowers after fees and tax impounds was $10,658,000.  The mortgage loans have five to ten year terms and bear interest ranging from 9.5% to 11.3%.  We also funded an additional $588,000 under existing mortgage loans for capital improvements.

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we received $2,170,000 plus accrued interest related to the payoff of a mortgage loan secured by a skilled nursing property located in Arizona.

8

Subsequent to June 30, 2005, we purchased eight loans from the remaining REMIC pool we originated.  We paid $15,158,000 which represents the outstanding principal balance of the loans plus accrued interest.  These loans have a weighted average interest rate of 11.4%.

REMIC Certificates.  As of June 30, 2005, we had REMIC Certificates with a net book value of $30,616,000.  Of the $30,616,000, $27,736,000 of our net book value represents face value certificated interests in the principal balances of the underlying mortgage pools while the remaining $2,880,000 net book value of our REMIC Certificates are interest-only certificates that represent the present value of the difference between the expected cash flows resulting from the mortgage pools and the interest being paid on the principal based certificates.  At June 30, 2005, the mortgage loans had a total unpaid principal balance of $53,058,000.  There are $19,033,000 of senior certificates outstanding that have priority over the $27,736,000 of face value certificates we retained.  Subsequent to our purchase of eight loans from the remaining REMIC Pool as described above, there were $3,431,000 of senior certificates outstanding and mortgage loan balances totaling $37,462,000 underlying the certificates in the remaining REMIC pool.

Our investment in the $30,616,000 of REMIC certificates is supported by the difference between the $53,058,000 in mortgage pool principal and the $19,033,000 of senior certificates outstanding, or $34,025,000 resulting in collateral in excess of our net book value of $3,409,000.

Interest only certificates and certificates with an investment rating of “BB” or higher are classified as available-for-sale and unrated certificates and certificates with an investment rating of “B” or lower are classified as held-to-maturity.  As of June 30, 2005, available-for-sale certificates were recorded at their fair value of approximately $2,880,000.  These cash flows have been discounted at a rate of 25.00% to arrive at the estimated fair market value of the interest-only certificates.

At June 30, 2005, held-to-maturity certificates had a book value of $27,736,000 and an estimated fair value of $28,054,000.  As of June 30, 2005, the effective yield on the available-for-sale certificates and the held-to-maturity certificates, based on expected future cash flows discounted to give effect to potential risks associated with prepayments and unanticipated credit losses, was 35.00% and 11.85%, respectively.

During the three months ended June 30, 2005, the 1996-1 REMIC Pool was fully retired.  We paid $855,000 in cash and exchanged our remaining interest in the 1996-1 REMIC Certificates and we received five mortgage loans with and estimated fair value of $10,398,000 and an unamortized principal balance of $10,469,000.  Accordingly, we recorded a $71,000 discount on these loans which will be amortized as a yield adjustment to increase interest income over the remaining life of the loans.  Additionally, we will amortize the $1,051,000 balance in Other Comprehensive Income that resulted from transferring the loans at fair value as required by SFAS No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments in debt and Equity Securities” as a yield adjustment to increase interest income over the life of the related loans.

3.Notes Receivable

At December 31, 2004, we held a Promissory Note (or Note) issued by Centers for Long Term Care, Inc. (or CLC) and Healthcare Holdings, Inc. (or HHI), a wholly owned subsidiary of CLC.  The face value of the note was $21,269,000 and the book value was $10,709,000.  The Note had a maturity date of October 1, 2007, an interest rate of 8.0% per year compounded monthly, accruing to the balance of the Note and was secured by all 1,452,794 shares of Assisted Living Concepts, Inc. (or ALC) common stock owned by HHI.  Cash payments of principal and interest were due upon maturity.  However, any proceeds from the sale of the collateral would result in a prepayment of the Note.  During the first quarter of 2005, we advanced $168,000 under the Note and added $191,000 in compound interest to the principal balance.  Also during the first quarter of 2005, we loaned Center Healthcare, Inc. (or CHC), a private company that purchased CLC in 2003, $500,000 which was secured by two skilled nursing properties in Texas with a total of 124 beds and all of the assets owned by HHI, this Note was repaid in full.

On January 31, 2005, Extendicare, Inc. and its wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary, Extendicare Health Services, Inc. (or EHSI) acquired ALC.  Accordingly, in February 2005, we received $22,309,000 in cash from CHC and HHI as payment in full for the Note and the $500,000 mortgage loan, including accrued and unpaid interest through the payoff date.  As a result of the payoff, we recognized $3,667,000 in rental income related to past due rents that were not previously accrued, $2,335,000 of interest income related to past due interest that was not previously accrued, a $477,000 reimbursement for certain expenses paid on behalf of CLC in prior years, a $1,000,000 bonus accrual related to the realization of the value of the Note and non-operating income of $6,217,000 ($3,610,000 of which was classified as Accumulated Comprehensive Income in the equity section of the balance sheet at December 31, 2004).  The $6,217,000 of non-operating income is net of $1,298,000 of legal and investment advisory fees related to the transaction that resulted in the Note payoff.

4.Debt Obligations

At June 30, 2005, we have no outstanding balances under our Unsecured Revolving Credit.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, pricing under the Unsecured Revolving Credit ranged between LIBOR plus 2.75% and LIBOR plus 3.25%.

5.Senior Mortgage Participation Payable

In 2002, we completed a loan participation transaction whereby we issued a $30,000,000 senior participating interest in 22 of our first mortgage loans that had a total unpaid principal balance of $58,627,000 (the “Participation Loan Pool”) to a private bank.  The Participation Loan Pool had a weighted average interest rate of 11.6% and a weighted average scheduled term to maturity of 77 months.  The senior participation balance is secured by the entire Participation Loan Pool.

The senior participation receives interest at a rate of 9.25% per annum, payable monthly in arrears, on the then outstanding principal balance of the senior participation.  In addition, the senior participation receives all mortgage principal collected on the Participation Loan Pool until the senior participation balance has been reduced to zero.  We retain interest received on the Participation Loan Pool in excess of the 9.25% paid to the senior participation.  The ultimate extinguishments of the senior participation are tied to the underlying maturities of loans in the Participation Loan Pool, which range from 8 to 158 months.  We have accounted for the participation transaction as a secured borrowing under SFAS No. 140 “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.”

10

During the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the senior participation received principal payments of $445,000 and $415,000, respectively.  At June 30, 2005, 19 loans remain in the Participation Loan Pool and $14,962,000 was outstanding under the senior mortgage participation.

6.Stockholders’ Equity

Preferred Stock.  During the six months ended June 30, 2005, holders of 178,402 shares of our 8.5% Series E Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (Series E preferred stock) notified us of their election to convert such shares into 356,804 shares of our common stock at the Series E preferred stock conversion rate of $12.50 per share.  Total shares reserved for issuance of common stock related to the conversion of Series E preferred stock were 765,734 at June 30, 2005.  Subsequent to June 30, 2005, holders of 11,497 shares of our Series E preferred stock notified us of their election to convert such shares into 22,994 shares of our common stock.  After these conversions, total shares reserved for issuance of common stock related to the conversion of Series E preferred stock were 742,740.

During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we issued 4,000,000 shares of Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (or Series F preferred stock) in a registered direct placement generating net cash proceeds of $98,462,000.  The cash proceeds and cash on hand were used to redeem all of our Series A and Series B preferred stock.  Accordingly, we recognized $4,029,000 of original issue costs related to the Series A and Series B preferred stock redeemed as a preferred stock redemption charge in the six months ended June 30, 2004.

Common Stock.  During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we repurchased and retired 167,600 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2,958,000, an average of $17.65 per share.  The shares were purchased on the open market under a Board authorization to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares.  Including these purchases, 2,515,800 shares have been purchased under this authorization.  Therefore, we continue to have an open Board authorization to purchase an additional 2,484,200 shares.  During the six months ended June 30, 2004 we did not repurchase common stock.

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, a total of 89,100 stock options were exercised at a total option value of $509,000 and a total market value as of the dates of exercise of $1,703,000.   Subsequent to June 30, 2005, a total of 12,000 stock options were exercised at a total option value of $166,000 and a total market value as of the dates of exercise of $268,000.

During the six months ended June 30, 2004, two of our limited partners exercised their conversion rights and exchanged their interests in five of our limited partnerships.  In accordance with the partnership agreements, at our option, we issued 168,365 shares of our common stock to one limited partner and paid approximately $109,000 for the redemption of 7,027 shares owned by another limited partner.

Subsequent to June 30, 2005, we sold 1,500,000 shares of common stock in a registered direct placement for $22.08 per share.  Net proceeds of $32,623,000 will be used for general corporate purposes including acquisitions, loan originations and debt retirement.  In 2004 we filed a Form S-3 “shelf” registration.  Subsequent to the registered direct placement discussed above, we have approximately $105,000,000 available on our shelf registration and 23,184,443 shares of common stock outstanding.

Subsequent to June 30, 2005, we declared a monthly cash dividend of $0.11 per share on our common stock for the months of July, August and September 2005, payable on August 1, September 1 and October 3, 2005, respectively, to stockholders of record on July 22, August 24, and September 26, 2005, respectively.

Other Equity.  Other equity consists of the following (in thousands):

	June 30, 2005			December 31, 2004

Notes receivable from stockholders	$	(338	)	$	(508	)
Deferred compensation	(354		)	(228		)
Accumulated comprehensive (loss) income	(804		)	2,806
Total Other Equity	$	(1,496	)	$	2,070

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we received $169,000 in principal payments on notes receivable from stockholders.  Also during the six months ended June 30, 2005, we realized a $3,610,000 gain that was included in Accumulated Comprehensive Income at December 31, 2004 which was related to a note receivable that was paid in full during the period as described more fully in Note 3. Notes Receivable.

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we issued 8,000 shares of restricted common stock at $19.62 per share.  These shares vest ratably over a three year period.  Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2005, 10,800 shares of unvested restricted stock were canceled.  During the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, $124,000 and $87,000, respectively, of compensation expense was recognized related to the vesting of restricted stock.  During the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, $228,000 and $172,000, respectively, of compensation expense was recognized related to the vesting of restricted stock.

Stock-Based Compensation.  On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”.  SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to

12

Employees” (APB 25), and amends SFAS No. 95 “Statement of Cash Flows”.  Generally, the approach in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123.  However, SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values.  Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative.  The Securities and Exchange Commission has delayed the adoption requirement of SFAS No. 123(R) until January 1, 2006.  We expect to adopt SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006 as required.

SFAS No. 123(R) permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods:

1)A “modified prospective” method in which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123(R) for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123 for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123(R) that remain unvested on the effective date.

2)A “modified retrospective” method which includes the requirements of the modified prospective method described above, but also permits entities to restate based on the amounts previously recognized under SFAS No. 123 for purposes of pro forma disclosures either (a) all prior periods presented or (b) prior interim periods of the year of adoption.

We plan to adopt SFAS No. 123(R) using the “modified-prospective” method.  We adopted the fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payments effective January 1, 2003, using the prospective method described in SFAS No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure” and therefore have recognized compensation expense related to all employee stock-based awards granted, modified or settled after January 1, 2003.

Currently, we use the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to estimate the value of stock options granted to employees.  This model requires management to make certain estimates including stock volatility, discount rate and the termination discount factor.  If management incorrectly estimates these variables, the results of operations could be affected.  We expect to continue to use this acceptable option valuation model upon the required adoption of SFAS No. 123(R).  Because SFAS No. 123(R) must be applied not only to new awards but to previously granted awards that are not fully vested on the effective date, and because we adopted SFAS No. 123 using the prospective transition method (which applied only to awards granted, modified or settled after the adoption date), compensation cost for some previously granted awards that were not recognized under SFAS No. 123 will be recognized under SFAS No. 123(R).  However, had we adopted SFAS No. 123(R) in prior periods, the impact of that standard would have approximated the impact of SFAS No. 123 as described in the disclosure of pro forma net income and earnings per share below.  SFAS No. 123(R) also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current literature.  Because we qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, we are not subject to Federal income taxation.  Therefore, this new reporting requirement will not have an impact on our statement of cash flows.

Prior to January 1, 2003, we accounted for stock option grants in accordance with APB 25 and related Interpretations.  Historically, we granted stock options for a fixed number of shares to employees with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant.  Under APB 25, because the exercise price of our employee stock options equaled the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense was recognized.  Effective January 1, 2003, we adopted SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure,” on a prospective

13

basis for all employee awards granted, modified or settled on or after January 1, 2003.  During the six months ended June 30, 2005, 15,000 options to purchase common stock were granted at an exercise price of $19.62 and vest ratably over a three year period.  Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2005, 4,000 unvested options to purchase common stock were cancelled.  During the six months ended June 30, 2004, 30,000 options to purchase common stock were granted at an exercise price of $15.13 and vest ratably over a three year period.  Accordingly, $10,000 and $19,000 of compensation expense was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, related to the vesting of these options as compared to $4,000 and $4,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively.

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as if the fair value method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2005			2004			2005			2004
Net income available to common stockholders, as reported	$	5,793		$	4,442		$	22,950		$	5,368
Add: Stock-based compensation expense in the period	10			4			19			4
Deduct: Total stock-based compensation expense determined under fair value method for all awards	(12		)	(5		)	(26		)	(10		)
Pro forma net income available to common stockholders	$	5,791		$	4,441		$	22,943		$	5,362
Net income per common share available to common stockholders:
Basic – as reported	$	0.27		$	0.23		$	1.06		$	0.29
Basic – pro forma	$	0.27		$	0.23		$	1.06		$	0.29
Diluted – as reported	$	0.27		$	0.23		$	1.02		$	0.29
Diluted – pro forma	$	0.27		$	0.23		$	1.02		$	0.29

Note: Adjustments to compensation expense related to restricted shares have been excluded from this table since expense for restricted shares is already reflected in net income and is the same under APB No. 25 and SFAS No. 123.

7.Commitments and Contingencies

As of June 30, 2005, we had the following commitments outstanding:

Item 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Executive Overview

Business

LTC Properties, Inc. a self-administered, health care real estate investment trust (or REIT) commenced operations in 1992.  We invest primarily in long-term care and other health care related properties through mortgage loans, property lease transactions and other investments.  The following table summarizes our portfolio as of June 30, 2005:

Type of Property	Gross Investments		Percentage of Investments		Revenues (2)		Percentage of Revenues		Number of Properties		Number of Beds/Units		Investment per Bed/Unit			Number of Operators (1)	Number of States (1)

Totals	$	618,532	100.0	%	$	36,704	100.0	%	203		16,967

(1)We have investments in 32 states leased or mortgaged to 48 different operators.

(2)Revenues exclude interest and other income from non-mortgage loan sources and the effect of the note payoff by CLC and HHI as more fully described in Note 3. Notes Receivable.

(3)The number of properties and beds are not included in the total line because we do not own the mortgage on these properties.

(4)Represents principal balance per bed as of June 30, 2005.

Our primary objectives are to sustain and enhance stockholder equity value and provide current income for distribution to stockholders through real estate investments in long-term care properties and other health care related properties managed by experienced operators.  To meet these objectives, we attempt to invest in properties that provide opportunity for additional value and current returns to our stockholders and diversify our investment portfolio by geographic location, operator and form of investment.

Substantially all of our revenues and sources of cash flows from operations are derived from operating lease rentals, interest earned on outstanding loans receivable and interest earned on our investment in Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits (or REMIC) Certificates.  In the past, we completed securitizations by transferring mortgage loans to newly created REMICs that, in turn, issued mortgage pass-through certificates aggregating approximately the same amount.  A portion of the REMIC Certificates were then sold to third parties and a portion of the REMIC Certificates were retained by us.  The REMIC Certificates we retained are subordinated in right of payment to the REMIC Certificates sold to third parties and a portion of the REMIC Certificates we retained are interest-only certificates which have no principal amount and entitle us to receive cash flows designated as interest.

Our investments in mortgage loans, owned properties and REMIC Certificates represent our primary source of liquidity to fund distributions and are dependent upon the performance of the operators on their lease and loan obligations and the rates earned thereon.  To the extent that the operators experience operating difficulties and are unable to generate sufficient cash to make payments to us, there could be a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity and/or financial condition.  To mitigate this risk, we monitor our investments through a variety of methods determined by the type of health care facility and operator.  Our monitoring process includes review of financial statements for each facility, periodic review of operator credit, scheduled property inspections and review of covenant compliance relating to real estate taxes and insurance.

18

In addition to our monitoring and research efforts, we also structure our investments to help mitigate payment risk.  We typically invest in or finance up to 90 percent of the stabilized appraised value of a property.  Operating leases and loans are normally credit enhanced by guaranties and/or letters of credit.  In addition, operating leases are typically structured as master leases and loans are generally cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized with other loans, operating leases or agreements between us and the operator and its affiliates.

For the six months ended June 30, 2005, rental income and interest income represented 72% and 18%, respectively, of total gross revenues (excluding the effect of the note payoff by CLC and HHI as more fully described in Note 3. Notes Receivable).  Our lease structure contains fixed annual rental escalations, which are generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the minimum lease period, and annual rental escalations that are contingent upon changes in the Consumer Price Index and/or changes in the gross operating revenues of the property.  This revenue is not recognized until the appropriate contingencies have been resolved.  This lease structure initially generates lower revenues and net income but enables us to generate additional growth and minimized non-cash straight-line rent over time.

Depending upon the availability and cost of external capital, we anticipate making additional investments in health care related properties.  New investments are generally funded from temporary borrowings under our unsecured line of credit and internally generated cash flows.  Our investments generate internal cash from rent and interest receipts and principal payments on mortgage loans receivable and REMIC Certificates.  Permanent financing for future investments, which replaces funds drawn under our unsecured line of credit, is expected to be provided through a combination of public and private offerings of debt and equity securities and the incurrence of secured debt.  We believe our liquidity and various sources of available capital are sufficient to fund operations, meet debt service obligations (both principal and interest), make dividend distributions and finance future investments.

Key Performance Indicators, Trends and Uncertainties

We utilize several key performance indicators to evaluate the various aspects of our business.  These indicators are discussed below and relate to concentration risk and credit strength.  Management uses these key performance indicators to facilitate internal and external comparisons to our historical operating results, in making operating decisions and for budget planning purposes.

Concentration Risk.  We evaluate our concentration risk in terms of asset mix, investment mix, operator mix and geographic mix.  Concentration risk is valuable to understand what portion of our investments could be at risk if certain sectors were to experience downturns. Asset mix measures the portion of our investments that are real property.  In order to qualify as an equity REIT, at least 75 percent of our total assets must be represented by real estate assets, cash, cash items and government securities.  Investment mix measures the portion of our investments that relate to our various property types.  Operator mix measures the portion of our investments that relate to our top four operators.  Geographic mix measures the portion of our investment that relate to our top five states.  The following table reflects our recent historical trends of concentration risk:

Credit Strength.  We measure our credit strength both in terms of leverage ratios and coverage ratios.  Our leverage ratios include debt to book capitalization and debt to market capitalization.  The leverage ratios indicate how much of our balance sheet capitalization is related to long-term debt.  Our coverage ratios include interest coverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio.  The coverage ratios indicate our ability to service interest and fixed charges (interest plus preferred dividends).  The coverage ratios are based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.  Leverage ratios and coverage ratios are widely used by investors, analysts and rating agencies in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies.  The following table reflects the recent historical trends for our credit strength measures:

	Three Months Ended
	6/30/05		3/31/05		12/31/04		9/30/04		6/30/04

(1)Excluding the effects of the CLC and HHI note payoff as more fully described in Note 3. Notes Receivable.  If the effects of the CLC and HHI note payoff were included, the interest coverage ratio would be 9.3x and the fixed charge coverage ratio would be 3.2x.

We evaluate our key performance indicators in conjunction with current expectations to determine if historical trends are indicative of future results. Our expected results may not be achieved and actual results may differ materially from our expectations.  This may be a result of various factors, including, but not limited to

•The status of the economy;

•The status of capital markets, including prevailing interest rates;

•Compliance with and changes to regulations and payment policies within the health care industry;

•Changes in financing terms;

•Competition within the health care and senior housing industries; and

•Changes in federal, state and local legislation.

20

Management regularly monitors the economic and other factors listed above.  We develop strategic and tactical plans designed to improve performance and maximize our competitive position. Our ability to achieve our financial objectives is dependent upon our ability to effectively execute these plans and to appropriately respond to emerging economic and company-specific trends.

Operating Results

Three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to three months ended June 30, 2004

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005, increased to $17.0 million from $16.6 million for the same period in 2004.  Rental income for the three months ended June 30, 2005, increased $0.6 million primarily as a result of the receipt of rent from properties acquired in 2004 and 2005 ($0.1 million), new leases and rental increases provided for in existing lease agreements ($0.6 million), partially offset by a decrease in straight-line rental income ($0.1 million).  Same store rental income, properties owned for the three months ended June 30, 2005, and the three months ended June 30, 2004, and excluding straight-line rental income, increased $0.6 million due to rental increases provided for in existing lease agreements.  Interest income from mortgage loans and notes receivable increased $0.9 million from the prior year due to new loans ($1.1 million) partially offset by the payoff of loans ($0.2 million).  Interest income from REMIC Certificates for the three months ended June 30, 2005, decreased $0.8 million compared to the same period of 2004 due to the dissolution of the 1994-1 and 1996-1 REMIC Pools, the amortization of our remaining REMIC Certificates and the early payoff of certain mortgage loans underlying our investment in REMIC Certificates.  Interest and other income for the three months ended June 30, 2005, decreased $0.3 million primarily as a result of conversions of notes receivable to mortgage loans, a reduction in loan modification and extension fees received from the REMIC Trust as per our subservicing agreement.

Interest expense decreased by $1.1 million to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005, from $3.4 million during the same period in 2004, due to a decrease in average borrowings outstanding during the period as a result of the payoff of mortgage loans.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the second quarter of 2005 increased $0.1 million from the second quarter of 2004 due to acquisitions and the conversions of mortgage loans into owned properties.

Legal expenses were comparable during the second quarter 2005 and the second quarter 2004.  Operating and other expenses were $0.3 million lower in the second quarter of 2005 primarily due to higher accounting and consulting fees in 2004 associated with documenting and testing our internal controls and costs to register our 2004 stock plans and limited partnerships’ conversion rights plans.

During the three months ended June 30, 2005, we recognized a $0.03 million gain on the sale of assets.  During the second quarter of 2004, we reported a net income from discontinued operations of $0.2 million comprised of a gain on sale and income related to properties that were sold.  This reclassification was made in accordance with SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” which requires that the financial results of properties meeting certain criteria be reported on a separate line item called “Discontinued Operations.”

21

Net income available to common stockholders increased to $5.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005, from $4.4 million for the same period in 2004 primarily due to the increases in revenue and decreases in expense as discussed above.

Six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to six months ended June 30, 2004

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005, increased to $39.9 million from $33.4 million for the same period in 2004.  Rental income for the six months ended June 30, 2005, increased $5.0 million primarily as a result of receiving the note payoff from CLC Healthcare, Inc. (or CLC) and Healthcare Holdings, Inc. (or HHI), as described in Note 3. Notes Receivable, part of which related to past due rents that were not accrued ($3.7 million), the receipt of rent from properties acquired in 2004 and 2005 ($0.2 million), new leases and rental increases provided for in existing lease agreements ($1.3 million), partially offset by a decrease in straight-line rental income ($0.2 million).  Same store rental income, properties owned for the six months ended June 30, 2005, and the six months ended June 30, 2004, and excluding straight-line rental income, increased $4.9 million due to the effect of receiving the note payoff from CLC and HHI part of which related to past due rents that were not accrued ($3.7 million) and rental increases provided for in existing lease agreements ($1.2 million).  Interest income from mortgage loans and notes receivable increased $1.4 million from the prior year due to new loans ($1.9 million) partially offset by the payoff of loans ($0.4 million) and the conversion of one loan into an owned property ($0.1 million).  Interest income from REMIC Certificates for the six months ended June 30, 2005, decreased $1.8 million compared to the same period of 2004 due to the dissolution of the 1994-1 and 1996-1 REMIC Pools, the amortization of our remaining REMIC Certificates and the early payoff of certain mortgage loans underlying our investment in REMIC Certificates.  Interest and other income for the six months ended June 30, 2005, increased $1.7 million primarily as a result of receiving the note payoff from CLC and HHI, as described in Note 3. Notes Receivable, part of which related to past due interest on the note that was not accrued ($2.3 million) partially offset by conversions of notes receivable to mortgage loans, a reduction in loan modification and extension fees received from the REMIC Trust as per our subservicing agreement and a decrease in interest income from our investment in Assisted Living Concepts, Inc. Senior and Junior Notes that were redeemed in the first quarter of 2004.

Interest expense decreased by $2.2 million to $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, from $6.7 million during the same period in 2004, due to a decrease in average borrowings outstanding during the period as a result of the payoff of mortgage loans.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2005 increased $0.2 million from the same period in 2004 due to acquisitions and the conversion of mortgage loans to owned properties.

Legal expenses were comparable during the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004.  Operating and other expenses were $0.4 million higher in the six months ended June 30, 2005 primarily as a result a $1.0 million bonus accrual related to the realization of the value of a note receivable, as described in Note 3. Notes Receivable, and expenses paid in the current year on behalf of certain operators, partially offset by the $0.5 million reimbursement of certain expenses that we paid in prior years on behalf of CLC as described in Note 3. Notes Receivable.

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we realized $6.2 million of non-operating income related to the note receivable paid off by CLC and HHI, as described in Note 3. Notes Receivable ($3.6 million of which was in Other Comprehensive Income at December 31, 2004).  The $6.2 million of non-operating income is net of $1.3 million of legal and investment advisory fees associated with the transaction that resulted in the note payoff.

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we recognized a $0.03 million gain on the sale of assets.  During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we reported a net income from discontinued operations

22

of $0.9 million comprised of a gain on sale and income related to properties that were sold.  This reclassification was made in accordance with SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” which requires that the financial results of properties meeting certain criteria be reported on a separate line item called “Discontinued Operations.”

During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we recorded a $4.0 million preferred stock redemption charge related to the redemption of all of our outstanding Series A and Series B preferred stock.  We did not redeem any preferred stock in 2005.

Net income available to common stockholders increased to $23.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, from $5.4 million for the same period in 2004 primarily due to the increases in revenue and non-operating income and decreases in expenses and preferred stock redemption charge as discussed above.  Excluding the effects of the CLC and HHI note receivable payoff, net income available to common stockholders was $11.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.  Excluding the effects of the preferred stock redemption charge, net income available to common stockholders was $9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2005, our real estate investment portfolio (before accumulated depreciation and amortization) consisted of $474.4 million invested primarily in owned long-term care properties, mortgage loans of approximately $112.2 million (net of a $1.3 million reserve) and subordinated REMIC Certificates of approximately $30.6 million with a weighted average effective yield of 13.7%.  At June 30, 2005, the outstanding certificate principal balance and the weighted average pass-through rate for the senior REMIC Certificates (all held by outside third parties) was $19.0 million and 7.5%.  Our portfolio, excluding our subordinated REMIC Certificates, consists of direct investments (properties that we either own or on which we hold promissory notes secured by first mortgages) in 100 skilled nursing properties, 101 assisted living properties and two schools in 32 states.

For the six months ended June 30, 2005, we had net cash provided by operating activities of $33.4 million.  Included in the cash provided by operating activities was $6.5 million which resulted from the receipt of past due rents of $3.7 million that were not accrued, past due interest income of $2.3 million that was not accrued and a $0.5 million reimbursement of certain expenses paid on behalf of an operator in prior years.  This cash received resulted from the payoff of a note receivable more fully described in Note 3. Notes Receivable.

For the six months ended June 30, 2005, we had net cash provided by investing activities of $0.1 million.  We acquired one 114 bed skilled nursing property in Texas for a total of $2.6 million in cash.  This property together with another skilled nursing property is leased to a third party operator under a 20-year master lease with two five year options to extend.  The initial annual master lease payment is $0.6 million and increases 2% annually.  We also invested $0.2 million in capital improvements to existing properties during the first half of 2005.

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we converted two mortgage loans on two skilled nursing properties with a total of 87 beds into owned properties.  One of the mortgage loans with a principal balance of $0.7 million was converted through an auction in accordance with a bankruptcy court order that approved the sale of substantially all of the borrower’s assets to us in exchange for $0.3 million in cash plus our bankruptcy claim of approximately $1.0 million.  This property is leased to a third party under a 10-year lease with two five year renewal options.  The initial annual lease payment is $0.2 million and increases 2.5% annually.  The initial annual lease rate is based on our commitment to fund up to $0.3 million for capital improvements as described in Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies. The other mortgage loan with a principal balance of $1.0 million was converted to an owned property through a deed-in-lieu foreclosure transaction.  This property is leased to a third party under a 10-year lease with three five year options to extend.  The initial annual lease payment beginning in December 2005 is $0.1 million and increases 2% annually beginning in the second year.  The

23

lease also provides the lessee with an option to purchase the property for $1.1 million plus the cost of our capital improvements less a credit of 1% of the purchase price per year for each year of the term of the lease immediately preceding the lessee’s exercise of the purchase option.  The lessee may exercise the purchase option only in the second and fourth year of the lease term.

Also during the six months ended June 30, 2005, we invested $18.3 million in six new mortgage loans, one of which was paid off in the first quarter as part of the CLC and HHI note payoff as described in Note 3. Notes Receivable. Another loan was paid off in the second quarter of 2005 as described in Note 2.Real Estate Investments.  Annual interest income from the remaining four new loans is $1.6 million and the current combined yield on these loans is 10.4%.  In addition, we funded an additional $0.6 million under existing mortgage loans for capital improvements.

Additionally we acquired $10.5 million face value mortgage loans secured by five skilled nursing properties from a REMIC pool we originated.  We exchanged $9.6 million in book value REMIC Certificates we owned and paid $0.9 million in cash, which represents the outstanding loan balances and accrued interest of outside REMIC Certificate holders which resulted in the dissolution of the 1996-1 REMIC Pool.  The weighted average effective interest rate on these loans is approximately 11.9%.

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we received $6.5 million in principal payments on mortgage loans receivable and $2.0 million in principal payments on REMIC Certificates.  We advanced $0.8 million under notes receivable (including $0.4 million under the CLC and HHI note), and received $15.1 million in principal payments including $15.0 related to the CLC and HHI note which was repaid in full as described in Note 3. Notes Receivable.

For the six months ended June 30, 2005, we used $23.8 million in financing activities.  We borrowed and repaid $2.0 million under our Unsecured Revolving Credit.  Additionally, $0.4 million in principal was received by the non-recourse senior mortgage participation holder and we paid $1.3 million in principal payments on mortgage loans and capital lease obligations.

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we repurchased and retired 167,600 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $3.0 million, an average of $17.65 per share.  We also paid cash dividends on our Series C, Series E, and Series F preferred stocks totaling $1.6 million, $0.5 million and $6.6 million respectively.  Additionally, we declared cash dividends on our common stock totaling $13.7 million and paid cash dividends on our common stock totaling $11.3 million.  The dividend for the month of June 2005 in the amount of $2.4 million was paid July 1, 2005.  Subsequent to June 30, 2005, we declared a monthly cash dividend of $0.11 per share on our common stock for the months of July, August and September 2005, payable on August 1, September 1, and October 3, 2005, respectively, to stockholders of record on July 22, August 24 and September 26, 2005, respectively.

At June 30, 2005, we only have one note receivable from a stockholder with a principal balance of $0.3 million outstanding.  This note matures in December 2006.  During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we received $0.5 million in conjunction with the exercise of 89,100 stock options.  The total market value as of the dates of exercise was approximately $1.7 million.  Subsequent to June 30, 2005, 12,000 options were exercised with a total option value of $0.2 million and total market value as of the dates of exercise of $0.3 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2005, holders of 178,402 shares of our 8.5% Series E Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (or Series E preferred stock) notified us of their election to convert such shares into 356,804 shares of our common stock at the Series E preferred stock conversion rate of $12.50 per share.  Subsequent to June 30, 2005, holders of 11,497 shares of our Series E preferred stock notified us of their election to convert such shares into 22,994 shares of common stock.  Subsequent to this most recent conversion, there are 371,370 shares of our Series E preferred stock outstanding.

24

Subsequent to June 30, 2005, we sold 1,500,000 shares of common stock in a registered direct placement for $22.08 per share.  Net proceeds of $32.6 million will be used for general corporate purposes including acquisitions, loan originations and debt retirement.  In 2004 we filed a Form S-3 “shelf” registration.  Subsequent to the registered direct placement discussed above, we have approximately $105.0 million available on our shelf registration and 23,184,443 shares of common stock outstanding.

Subsequent to June 30, 2005, we purchased eight loans from the remaining REMIC pool we originated.  We paid $15.2 million which represents the outstanding principal balance of the loans plus accrued interest.  These loans have a weighted average interest rate of 11.4%.  Subsequent to our purchase of eight loans from the remaining REMIC Pool as described above, there were $3.4 million of senior certificates outstanding and mortgage loan balances totaling $37.5 million underlying the certificates in the remaining REMIC pool.

We expect our future income and ability to make distributions from cash flows from operations to depend on the collectibility of our rents, mortgage loans receivable, and REMIC Certificates.  The collection of these loans, certificates and rents will be dependent, in large part, upon the successful operation by the operators of the skilled nursing properties and assisted living properties we own or are pledged to us and the school we own.  The operating results of the facilities will be impacted by various factors over which the operators/owners may have no control.  Those factors include, without limitation, the status of the economy, changes in supply of or demand for competing long-term care facilities, ability to control rising operating costs, and the potential for significant reforms in the long-term care industry.  In addition, our future growth in net income and cash flow may be adversely impacted by various proposals for changes in the governmental regulations and financing of the long-term care industry.  We cannot presently predict what impact these proposals may have, if any.  We believe that an adequate provision has been made for the possibility of loans proving uncollectible but we will continually evaluate the financial status of the operations of the skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities and the school.  In addition, we will monitor our borrowers and the underlying collateral for mortgage loans and will make future revisions to the provision, if considered necessary.

Our investments, principally our investments in mortgage loans, REMIC Certificates, and owned properties, are subject to the possibility of loss of their carrying values as a result of changes in market prices, interest rates and inflationary expectations.  The effects on interest rates may affect our costs of financing our operations and the fair market value of our financial assets.  Generally our loans have predetermined increases in interest rates and our leases have agreed upon annual increases.  Inasmuch as we may initially fund some of our investments with variable interest rate debt, we are at risk of net interest margin deterioration if medium and long-term rates were to increase.

We believe that our current cash flow from operations available for distribution or reinvestment, our current borrowing capacity and (based on market conditions) our ability to issue debt and equity securities are sufficient to provide for payment of our current operating costs, meet debt obligations, provide funds for distribution to the holders of our preferred stock and pay common dividends at least sufficient to maintain our REIT status and repay borrowings at, or prior to, their maturity.

Critical Accounting Policies

Effective January 1, 2003, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (or SFAS) No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure.”  SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” to provide alternative methods of transition to SFAS No. 123’s fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.  SFAS No. 148 also amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 and APB Opinion No. 28 “Interim Financial Reporting” to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity’s accounting policy for stock-based employee compensation on reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements.  SFAS No. 148

25

provides three transition methods for entities that adopt the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 for stock-based employee compensation.  In addition to the prospective method originally provided under SFAS No. 123, SFAS No. 148 provides for a modified prospective method and a retroactive restatement method.  We have adopted the prospective method and therefore will recognize compensation expense related to all employee stock-based awards granted, modified or settled after January 1, 2003.

We use the Black-Scholes-Merton model for calculating stock option expense.  This model requires management to make certain estimates including stock volatility, discount rate and the termination discount factor.  If management incorrectly estimates these variables, the results from operations could be affected.  Prior to January 1, 2003, we accounted for stock option grants in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25) and related Interpretations.  Historically, we granted stock options for a fixed number of shares to employees with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant.  Under APB 25, because the exercise price of our employee stock options equaled the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation expense was recognized.

As of June 30, 2005, there were 122,200 options outstanding subject to the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 148.  The fair value of these options was estimated utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model and assumptions as of each respective grant date.  In determining the estimated fair values for the options granted in 2004, the weighted average expected life assumption was three years, the weighted average volatility was 0.39, the weighted average risk free interest rate was 3.2% and the expected dividend yield was 7.27%.  The weighted average fair value of the options granted in 2004 was estimated to be $2.58.  For the 15,000 options granted in 2005, the weighted average expected life assumption was three years, the weighted average volatility was 0.31, the weighted average risk free interest rate was 3.5% and the expected dividend yield was 6.12%.  The weighted average fair value of the options granted in 2005 was $2.87.  At June 30, 2005, the weighted average fair value of all the options outstanding was estimated to be $1.60 per share, the weighted average exercise price of the options was $9.70 per share and the weighted average remaining vesting life was 1.6 years.  See Note 6. Stockholders’ Equity for further discussion.

For further discussion of our critical accounting policies, see our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Risk Factors

Certain information contained in this report includes forward looking statements, which can be identified by the use of forward looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “should” or comparable terms or negatives thereof.  These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the statements.  These risks and uncertainties include (without limitation) the following: the effect of economic and market conditions and changes in interest rates, government policy changes relating to the health care industry including changes in reimbursement levels under the Medicare and Medicaid programs, changes in reimbursement by other third party payors, the financial strength of the operators of our properties as it affects the continuing ability of such operators to meet their obligations to us under the terms of our agreements with our borrowers and operators, the amount and the timing of additional investments, access to capital markets and changes in tax laws and regulations.  Other important factors are identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, including factors identified under the headings “Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”  Finally, we assume no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in any forward-looking statements.

Item 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Readers are cautioned that statements contained in this section “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” are forward looking and should be read in conjunction with the disclosure under the heading “Risk Factors” set forth above.

We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in interest rates as they relate to our mortgage loans receivable, investments in REMIC Certificates and debt.  Interest rate risk is sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors that are beyond our control.

We do not utilize interest rate swaps, forward or option contracts or foreign currencies or commodities, or other types of derivative financial instruments.  The purpose of the following disclosure is to provide a framework to understand our sensitivity to hypothetical changes in interest rates as of June 30, 2005.

Our future earnings, cash flows and estimated fair values relating to financial instruments are dependent upon prevalent market rates of interest, such as LIBOR or term rates of U.S. Treasury Notes.  Changes in interest rates generally impact the fair value, but not future earnings or cash flows, of mortgage loans receivable, our investments in REMIC Certificates and fixed rate debt.  For variable rate debt, such as our Unsecured Revolving Credit, changes in interest rates generally do not impact the fair value, but do affect future earnings and cash flows.

At June 30, 2005, based on the prevailing interest rates for comparable loans and estimates made by management, the fair value of our mortgage loans receivable was approximately $107.8 million.  A 1% increase in such rates would decrease the estimated fair value of our mortgage loans by approximately $4.2 million while a 1% decrease in such rates would increase their estimated fair value by approximately $4.5 million.  A 1% increase or decrease in applicable interest rates would not have a material impact on the fair value of our investment in REMIC Certificates or fixed rate debt.

The estimated impact of changes in interest rates discussed above are determined by considering the impact of the hypothetical interest rates on our borrowing costs, lending rates and current U.S. Treasury rates from which our financial instruments may be priced.  We currently do not believe that future market rate risks related to our financial instruments will be material to our financial position or results of operations.  These analyses do not consider the effects of industry specific events, changes in the real estate markets, or other overall economic activities that could increase or decrease the fair value of our financial instruments.  If such events or changes were to occur, we would consider taking actions to mitigate and/or reduce any negative exposure to such changes.  However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, the sensitivity analysis assumes no changes in our capital structure.

Item 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (or “Exchange Act”). As of the end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
