On December 30, 2003, a Secured Promissory Note in the amount of $6,363,360 given by Housing for Seniors of Humble, LLC (“Humble”) to NLP Lakeshore Villas, LLC (“NLP”) was assigned from American Realty Investors, Inc. (“ARI”) to IORI as a paydown in the amount of $6,363,360 of certain intercompany receivables.

On December 30, 2003, a Secured Promissory Note in the amount of $2,000,000 given by Humble to NLP was assigned from ARI to IORI as additional paydown in the amount of $2,000,000 of certain intercompany receivables.

On October 14, 2003, IORI purchased, sold and conveyed an office building known as One Hickory Centre, and sold 202 acres of unimproved real property known as the Travelers Land in Dallas County, Texas to Encino Executive Plaza, Ltd. The sale price for One Hickory Centre was $12,200,000 and Encino Executive Plaza, Ltd. executed a wrap-around promissory note in the amount of $11,973,025 payable to the order of IORI secured by a Deed of Trust encumbering One Hickory Centre. The remaining difference of which was as a result of prorations and various expenses paid by IORI in connection with the closing of the transaction. The note bears interest at 5.5% per annum. The sale price for the Travelers Land was $25,000,000. At closing, Encino Executive Plaza, Ltd. executed an all inclusive wrap-around promissory note payable to the order of IORI in the principal amount of $22,801,987 secured by a Deed of Trust covering the Travelers Land sold and delivered cash to IORI in the amount of $1,976,715. As with the prior transaction, the difference between the purchase price and the promissory note represented adjustments for various prorations. The note bears interest at 5.5% per annum. Subsequently, IORI made a loan to Encino Executive Plaza, Ltd. in the amount of $1,567,232 payable upon demand or, if no demand is made prior thereto, on June 30, 2006, with a market rate of interest. Encino Executive Plaza, Ltd. executed and delivered a promissory note payable to the order of IORI in the stated principal amount of $1,567,232. The note bears interest at 5.5% per annum.

NOTE 4. RECEIVABLE FROM AND PAYABLE TO AFFILIATES

Related Party. On September 19, 2002, IORI’s Board of Directors authorized the Chief Financial Officer of the Company to advance funds either to or from the Company, through the advisor without interest, in an amount up to $5 million on the condition that such advances shall be repaid in cash or transfers of assets within 90 days. From time-to-time, IORI and its affiliates and related parties have made unsecured advances to each other to fund their respective operations, which generally have not had specific repayment terms and have been reflected in IORI’s financial statements as other assets. At March 31, 2005 and 2004, IORI held a receivable of $261,000 from TCI. IORI had payables of $1.5 million and $1.3 million to SWI at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. See also NOTE 6. “RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS.”

NOTE 5. NOTES AND INTEREST PAYABLE

In April 2002, the Company transferred all of its residential properties to partnerships formed with Metra Capital LLC (“Metra”). The properties included the 60-unit Brighton Court, the 92-unit Del Mar, the 68-unit Enclave, the 280-unit Meridian, the 57-unit Signature, and the 114-unit Sinclair, all located in Midland, Texas, and the 106-unit Treehouse located in San Antonio, Texas. Innovo Realty, Inc., a subsidiary of Innovo Group, Inc. (“Innovo”) is a limited partner in the partnerships that purchased the properties. A former director of ARI, a related party, controlled approximately 11.67% of the outstanding common stock of Innovo. The transfer constituted 23% of the total assets of the Company as of December 31, 2001. The transfer price for the properties totaled $26.2 million, of which the Company received $5.3 million in cash after the payment of $15.9 million in debt and various closing costs. Management determined to account for the transaction as a refinancing transaction (rather than a sale) in accordance with SFAS 66 “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate.” At the time of the transaction in April 2002, ARI was a related party to the Company by virtue of ARI’s subsidiaries’ ownership of approximately 28.5% of the then outstanding common stock of the Company, and the fact that ARI and the Company had the same persons as executive officers. The compensation price for the properties transferred totaled $26.2 million and possible additional contingent consideration depending upon the sale price of the properties by the Metra partnerships. The Company also received $5.2 million in value of 8% in non-recourse, non-convertible preferred stock of Innovo. Based upon the prospect of additional consideration, ultimate continued involvement through the preferred stock and the related-party nature of the former ARI director’s involvement, as well as the Company retaining a right to approve the price of any ultimate sale by a Metra partnership of the properties, and a process by which the Company effectively guaranteed a preferential return to the Metra investors, management determined that the transaction must be classified as a financing transaction and not a sale. The Company continued to be able to exert control over the Metra partnerships, and no sale was recorded. The Treehouse property was subsequently sold to a non-related party in February 2004, and all of its debts have been repaid to the lenders at the time of the sale. During August 2004, certain entities, including the Company, instituted an action in a Texas state court against Innovo and Metra and

7

others over the process, as well as distribution questions. During April 2005, a resolution of the litigation occurred settling all liabilities remaining from the original partnership arrangements which included a return of the Metra investor equity, prepayment of prospective asset management fees and miscellaneous fees and transaction costs from the Company and the other plaintiffs as a payment of the Preferential Return along with the delegation of management to another entity. Of the payment made, the Company recognized expense of $56,000 and a reduction of $1,476,000 in liabilities during the second quarter of 2005.
