all of which are collateralized by real estate located in southeast
Florida, consist of (in thousands):

<PAGE> 8
(b) Hilcoast
At September 30, 1994, the Lines of Credit consisted of
revolving construction loan commitments up to a maximum of $13
million. The Term Loan and the first $6.5 million of the Lines of
Credit mature on July 31, 1998, except as described below with
respect to the conversion of the Term Loan, and bear interest,
payable monthly, at prime (7.75% at September 30, 1994) plus 3%,
but in any event not less than 9% nor more than 11%. Upon
satisfaction of the Purchase Note (as described below), the $6.5
million Line of Credit may be increased by Hilcoast to $7.5
million. The next $3 million of the Lines of Credit mature on
March 31, 1996 and bear interest, payable monthly, at prime plus 3%
with a floor of 11%. The final $2.5 million of the Lines of Credit
is limited to the amount by which $30 million exceeds the
outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan, bears interest,
payable monthly, at 12.5% and matures on January 31, 1996.
The Term Loan and the Lines of Credit are principally
collateralized by first mortgages on certain residential and
commercial real estate at the Century Village at Pembroke Pines,
Florida adult condominium project ("Century Village"), and a second
mortgage on the recreation facilities at Century Village
(subordinated to a first mortgage to The Daiwa Bank, Ltd. ("Daiwa")
in the amount of $3.6 million at September 30, 1994) (the
"Collateral"). Hilcoast is required to pay commitment fees ranging
from .9% to 1.8% per annum on the unused portion of the Lines of
Credit. The Term Loan requires minimum annual principal payments,
which include specific release prices for the Collateral.
Provided that the Daiwa indebtedness (which matures on October
31, 1996) has been satisfied, when the Term Loan has been reduced
to $25 million, it will be converted to an 11%, fixed rate, 25 year
self-amortizing loan providing for equal monthly payments of
principal and interest (the "Permanent Loan"). The release prices
for the Collateral will then be applied to a permanent reduction of
amounts available under the Lines of Credit. The Permanent Loan
may not be prepaid by Hilcoast without a prepayment penalty and
will be collateralized by a first mortgage on the recreation
facilities at Century Village.
In connection with the acquisition by Hilcoast of the
Collateral and certain other assets in July 1992, Hilcoast issued
a promissory note (the "Purchase Note") to the seller, with an
outstanding balance of $2 million at September 30, 1994, guaranteed
by the Company and collateralized by $3 million of the Company's $5
million investment in Hilcoast Preferred Stock. The Purchase Note
bears interest at prime (7.75% at September 30, 1994) plus 1/2%,
and is payable by Hilcoast on July 31, 1995.

(3) Commitments and Contingencies - TGI Development, Inc. ("TGI")
On October 9, 1989, TGI filed a complaint against the Company,
H. Irwin Levy (Note (4)) and certain unrelated parties alleging
misrepresentations by the defendants in connection with the
Plaintiff's purchase and development of land from a previous
borrower of the Company. The complaint, as subsequently amended,
consisted of counts of common law fraud and breach of contract and
sought compensatory damages of approximately $2 million in addition
to punitive damages. On October 3, 1990, the Company filed a
counterclaim against TGI in connection with an $800,000 promissory
note from TGI to the Company. On February 9, 1994, the Court
granted a Final Judgment in favor of the Company as to the count of
common law fraud, which strikes the punitive damage claim. In
accordance with an agreement between the parties, on August 23,
1994, the Court dismissed the breach of contract count with
prejudice and entered a judgment in the amount of $1.1 million in
favor of the Company on the aforementioned counterclaim. The
Company has agreed not to execute that judgment until completion of
the Plaintiff's appeal of the Final Judgment on the punitive damage
claim. Although the Company believes it has substantial defenses,
the ultimate outcome of this litigation cannot presently be
determined. Accordingly, no provision for any liability that may
result upon final adjudication has been made in the accompanying
financial statements.

(4) Consulting and Advisory Agreement with Hilcoast
(the "Agreement")
Under the Agreement, Hilcoast provides certain investment
advisory, consulting and administrative services to the Company.
The Agreement expires on July 31, 1995, provides for the payment of
$10,000 per month to Hilcoast, plus reimbursement for all out of
pocket expenses, and may be terminated by Hilcoast upon 180 days
notice and by the Company upon 30 days notice. H. Irwin Levy, a
principal stockholder and the former Chairman of the Board of the
Company, and certain former officers and a former director of the
Company, presently serve as officers and/or directors of Hilcoast.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Results of Operations and Financial Condition
Results of Operations
During the third quarter ended September 30, 1994, net income
was $2,240,000 as compared to $1,811,000 in the corresponding
quarter of 1993.
The $429,000 increase in quarterly earnings was principally
attributable to a $162,000 decrease in operating, general and
administrative expenses, a $81,000 increase in net interest income,
and a $200,000 reversal of losses versus $90,000 in 1993.
The decrease in operating, general and administrative expenses
was primarily due to the elimination of costs incurred in
connection with operating residential real estate acquired by
foreclosure, sold during 1993, and reduced legal fees.
The $81,000 increase in net interest income was principally
attributable to an approximately $400,000 reduction in interest
expense principally due to the repayment in November 1993 of the
Company's subordinated notes, and an approximately $140,000
increase in interest income on the Company's variable rate mortgage
notes receivable due to the rise in the prime rate during 1994.
These items were partially offset by a reduction of $360,000 in net
interest income resulting from the sale of the Company's leveraged
GNMA portfolio (see below) and a $100,000 reduction of interest
income resulting from a decrease in the Company's mortgage note
receivable portfolio.
On April 5, 1994, the Company sold its GNMA certificate
portfolio for $32.4 million and realized a $2.4 million loss on the
sale. For the nine months ended September 30, 1994, income before
the loss on sale of GNMA certificates was $6,362,000 compared to
$5,176,000 for the same period of 1993.
The $1,186,000 increase was principally due to a $551,000
reduction in operating, general and administrative expenses, a
$306,000 increase in net interest income and a $400,000 reversal of
losses versus $190,000 in 1993.
The increase in net interest income principally reflects a
decrease of $1,136,000 in interest expense resulting from the
aforementioned reduction in borrowings, partially offset by
$717,000 in reduced net interest income due to the sale of the GNMA
certificates.
<PAGE> 13
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 1994, total assets were $122.7 million,
including $96.9 million in real estate mortgage notes.
Approximately $44.3 million of the real estate mortgage notes
provide for self-amortizing, equal monthly installment payments
through 2012 and are collateralized by recreation facilities under
long-term leases with residents living in the approximately 22,000
apartments at Century Village adult condominium communities at West
Palm Beach, Deerfield Beach and Boca Raton, Florida ("Recreation
Notes"). The operations of these facilities historically have been
profitable and, in the Company's opinion, are not likely to be
affected by adverse economic conditions.
The remaining $52.6 million of real estate mortgage notes
included $42.3 million due from Hilcoast Development Corp.
("Hilcoast"), principally collateralized by first mortgages on
certain real estate at the planned 7780 unit Century Village at
Pembroke Pines adult condominium community in Broward County,
Florida ("Century Village"), and a second mortgage on the
recreation facilities located at Century Village. Of this amount,
approximately $17.3 million is scheduled to be repaid through July
1998 and the remaining $25 million is scheduled to be converted by
July 1998 to a 25 year, self-amortizing loan providing for equal
monthly installment payments of principal and interest,
collateralized by a first mortgage on the recreation facilities at
Century Village. At September 30, 1994, 6,107 units had been sold
and delivered at Century Village and the backlog of units under
contract for future delivery was 282 units with a sales value of
$22 million.
Collections on the Company's real estate mortgage notes may be
affected by the future success of the projects which collateralize
these notes, which may, in turn, be affected by conditions in the
housing and commercial real estate markets.
Operating funds are currently generated from interest income
on mortgage notes, rentals from income producing properties,
distributions from self-storage warehouse partnerships and dividend
income on the Company's investment in Hilcoast Preferred Stock.
Dividend payments to stockholders, in accordance with the
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, limit the Company from
utilizing significant amounts of income-generated funds for
investment purposes. Repayments received on mortgage notes and
proceeds from sales of real estate are expected to be invested in
new real estate investment opportunities which may arise.
<PAGE> 14
During the nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, the
Company declared cash dividends of $.81 per share and $.75 per
share, aggregating $6.5 million and $5.4 million, respectively.
During the same period, the Company's Funds From Operations was
$6.4 million or $.80 per share and $5.2 million or $.72 per share,
respectively. The Company's Funds From Operations generally
consisted of net income, excluding the reversal of losses and the
loss on sale of GNMA certificates, plus depreciation of real
property (including the Company's share of depreciation in
connection with its equity in earnings of unconsolidated
partnerships).
The Company had been using its long-term GNMA certificates as
collateral to borrow short term funds (three months or less). In
connection with the sale of its GNMA certificate portfolio on April
5, 1994 for $32.4 million, the Company repaid the $31.9 million
outstanding balance of its short-term borrowings and realized a
$2.4 million loss on the sale. The loss from the sale did not
impact Funds From Operations nor the 1994 quarterly dividends.
However, dependent upon the Company's replacement investments, net
interest income may decrease slightly, which may have a relatively
minor effect on quarterly dividends. This decrease is expected to
be partially offset by increased interest income on the Company's
variable rate mortgage notes receivable (approximately $39 million
at September 30, 1994) as a result of the recent increases in the
prime rate.
At September 30, 1994, the outstanding balance of the
Company's Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (the "CMO's")
amounted to $39.3 million (net of unamortized discount of $1.1
million based on an effective interest rate of $8.84%). The CMO's
are collateralized by the Recreation Notes and require self-
amortizing principal and interest payments through March 2007.
During the term of the CMO's, the Company's scheduled annual debt
service requirement approximates $5.2 million compared to annual
principal and interest payments scheduled to be received under the
Recreation Notes of $6.5 million.
Commitments on outstanding real estate loans consists of $3.3
million under the Hilcoast Lines of Credit. The Company expects to
be able to meet this commitment with internally generated funds,
including principal repayments on real estate mortgage notes. The
Company has a $2.5 million revolving line of credit with a
financial institution which matures on December 31, 1995. As of
September 30, 1994, there was no outstanding balance on this line.
There are currently no material commitments for capital
expenditures.
<PAGE> 15
Inflation
The Company's interest-sensitive mortgage notes receivable
approximated $39 million, as of September 30, 1994, which consisted
of amounts due from Hilcoast with interest at prime plus 3% (10.75%
at September 30, 1994). As a result, inflation may have a positive
effect on the Company's operations if such inflation is accompanied
by rising interest rates. However, interest on the Hilcoast loans
generally cannot be less than 9% nor more than 11%.

FUTURE ADVANCE PROMISSORY NOTE
U.S. $2,500,000.00 September 15, 1994
West Palm Beach, Florida
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned (the "Borrower") does hereby
covenant and promise to pay to the order of CV REIT, INC., a
Delaware corporation, or to its successors or assigns (collectively
the "Lender") at Century Village Administrative Building, 100
Century Boulevard, West Palm Beach, Florida 33417, or at such
other place or places as the Lender may designate to the Borrower
in writing from time to time, in legal tender of the United States
of America, the principal sum of TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND
AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($2,500,000.00) or so much thereof as shall have
been advanced and/or readvanced by Lender to Borrower and shall
then be outstanding, together with interest thereon computed from
the date hereof until paid at the rate of Twelve and One-Half
Percent (12 1/2%) per annum; such principal and interest being
payable as follows:
(a) Interest only shall be due and payable monthly on the
first business day of each and every month hereafter,
commencing on the first business day of the first
calendar month after the execution hereof and continuing
thereafter to and including January 2, 1996; and
(b) The remaining unpaid principal balance hereof together
with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall be due
and payable on January 31, 1996 ("Maturity Date").
It is expressly agreed that this Promissory Note evidences a TWO
MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($2,500,000.00)
revolving line of credit. The principal sum which may be
outstanding at any time under such line of credit shall not exceed
TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS
($2,500,000.00), however, this limitation shall not be deemed to
prohibit Lender from advancing any sum which may, in Lender's sole
and exclusive discretion, be necessary or desirable in order to
protect and preserve the lien, charge, effect and enforceability of
the Mortgage securing this Promissory Note. Within the limits and
subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the Mortgage
securing this Promissory Note, the Borrower may borrow, repay or
reborrow under the revolving line of credit evidenced by this
Promissory Note, and all shall be subject to the terms and
conditions of this Promissory Note and said Mortgage.
This Promissory Note is secured by a certain Mortgage encumbering
certain real property located in Broward County, Florida.
The Borrower reserves the privilege of prepaying the whole or any
part of the principal balance owed hereunder at any time without
penalty.
This Promissory Note shall be in default and the entire outstanding
unpaid principal balance hereof shall, at the option of the Lender,
become immediately due and payable in the event Borrower fails to
make any payment required hereunder within ten (10) days from the
due date thereof, or in the event Borrower fails to duly observe or
perform any covenant, obligation, or agreement on Borrower's part
to be observed or performed under the terms of the aforesaid
Mortgage.
Subject to the next succeeding Paragraph hereof with respect to the
"Maximum Rate," Borrower does hereby agree to pay to Lender, in
addition to all other payments required by this Promissory Note, a
commitment fee ("Commitment Fee") in the amount of nine-tenths of
one percent (.9%) per annum of the unused portion of the remaining
available funds (being the amount which the Maker hereof would be
entitled to draw hereunder after giving effect to any limitations
on the right to draw such funds set forth in that certain letter
agreement of even date herewith between Borrower and Lender). By
the close of the first (1st) business day of each month, commencing
with the first day of the first calendar month after the execution
hereof, that portion of the Commitment Fee attributable to the
prior month must have been paid to Lender. The Commitment Fee
shall not apply to any sums no longer available to be drawn under
this Promissory Note. By way of example, if the average
outstanding amount which could have been drawn under this
Promissory Note during a given month, but which was not so drawn,
was $2,000,000.00, then the Commitment Fee due on the first
business day of the next succeeding month would be $1,500.00 (i.e.,
$2,000,000 multiplied by .009 = $18,000 divided by 12 = $1,500.00).
The Borrower shall have the right, at any time, and from time to
time upon written notice to Lender to permanently reduce the
maximum principal amount which may thereafter be borrowed under
this Promissory Note. Once such notice is given, Borrower shall
not be entitled to thereafter borrow any sums pursuant to this
Promissory Note if the aggregate unpaid principal amount due
hereunder would exceed said maximum principal amount set forth in
such notice from the Borrower to the Lender and the Commitment Fee
shall no longer be applicable to the amount(s) in excess of the
maximum principal amount which may be borrowed hereunder as set
forth in such notice(s).
Subject to the maximum amount which may be borrowed hereunder,
Lender shall disburse such sums to Borrower as Borrower shall from
time to time request in writing (which request may be hand
delivered, sent via telecopier, sent via overnight delivery service
such as, but not limited to, Federal Express, or sent U.S. mail and
shall be effective when received by Lender) provided that, Lender
shall only be obligated to provide one (1) advance per week and
provided further, that Lender shall only be obligated to advance
such funds within forty-eight (48) hours after its receipt of such
notice from Borrower, the time period of forty-eight hours
referring to business days only.
After the Maturity Date or other event of default under this
Promissory Note or said Mortgage, interest shall accrue at the
lower of: (a) the greater of (i) five percent (5%) above the "Prime
Rate" (as hereinafter defined) or (ii) fifteen percent (15%) per
annum or (b) the "Maximum Rate" (as hereinafter defined); provided
that, if any such event of default is cured within any applicable
cure or grace period, the excess interest charged by virtue of such
event of default shall be waived. As used herein, the term "Prime
Rate" shall mean and refer to the rate of interest published in The
Wall Street Journal as the Prime Rate, as such rate may change from
time to time. In the event such Prime Rate is no longer published,
Lender shall designate a comparable substitute index. In the event
that more than one Prime Rate is published in the Wall Street
Journal, Prime Rate shall be deemed the average of all such prime
rates published.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Promissory Note or said
Mortgage, or in any instrument now or hereafter relating to or
securing the within indebtedness, the total liability for payments
of interest and payments in the nature of interest, including all
charges, fees, exactions, or other sums which may at any time be
deemed to be interest, shall not exceed the limit imposed by the
usury laws of the State of Florida or the applicable laws of the
United States of America, whichever shall be higher (the "Maximum
Rate"). In the event the total liability for payments of interest
and payments in the nature of interest, including, without
limitation, all charges, fees, exactions or other sums which may at
any time be deemed to be interest, which for any month or other
interest payment period exceeds the Maximum Rate, all sums in
excess of those lawfully collectible as interest for the period in
question (and without further agreement or notice by, between, or
to any party hereto) shall, at Borrower's option, either be applied
to the reduction of the principal balance immediately upon receipt
of such sums by the Lender as a premium-free payment of principal,
or be immediately reimbursed to Borrower. It is the intention of
the parties that the undersigned does not intend or expect to pay
nor does the Lender intend or expect to charge, accept or collect
any interest under this Promissory Note, or under said Mortgage
greater than the Maximum Rate.
If this Promissory Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for
collection by suit at law or in equity or otherwise, Borrower shall
pay all costs, together with reasonable attorney's fees.
The remedies provided by this Promissory Note are cumulative and
concurrent with, and not in lieu of, any and all other remedies
provided by any other instrument, by statute, at law or in equity.
No delay, failure or omission on the part of the Lender in
exercising any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of such
right and remedy. No waiver of a right or remedy shall be
effective unless in writing signed by the Lender, nor shall waiver
on any one occasion be construed or operate as a bar to, or waiver
of, such right or remedy or any other right or remedy on any future
occasion. This Promissory Note may not be modified or amended
orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party
against whom enforcement of such modification or amendment is
sought.
This Promissory Note is subject to the terms, provisions and
conditions of the Mortgage securing this Promissory Note.
This Promissory Note shall be the joint and several obligation of
each of the parties named as Borrower herein, and all sureties,
guarantors and endorsers of this Promissory Note.
This instrument shall be governed by and construed and enforced
according to the laws of the State of Florida, except where
specifically preempted by federal law to the extent applicable.
Venue with respect to any litigation on this Promissory Note shall
be Broward County, Florida.
Whenever used, the singular shall include the plural, the plural
shall include the singular, the use of any gender shall be
applicable to all genders, and the words "Borrower" and "Lender"
shall be deemed to include the respective heirs, legal
representatives, successors and assigns of the Borrower and the
Lender.
BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY
WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT
OF ANY LITIGATION (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY CLAIMS,
CROSSCLAIMS OR THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS) ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN

PROMISSORY NOTE OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR ANY
COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR
WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY OF THEM. BORROWER HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT
NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF THE LENDER OR THE LENDER'S COUNSEL
HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE LENDER WOULD NOT,
IN THE EVENT OF SUCH LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER OF
RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL PROVISION. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE
LENDER HAS BEEN INDUCED TO MAKE THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THIS
PROMISSORY NOTE BY, INTER ALIA, THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH.

Public Records of Broward County, Florida securing that certain
Promissory Note ("Note") in the original principal amount of
$3,000,000.00/"Mortgages" as referred to in that certain Second
Modification of Existing Notes and Mortgages recorded in Official
Records Book 19737, at Page 647 of the Public Records of Broward
County, Florida ("Second Modification") (said Mortgages as referred
to in the Second Modification being hereinafter referred to as the
"Prior Mortgages")/"Restated Loan Agreement" as referred to in the
Second Modification/Future Advance Promissory Note ("Advance Note")
from Newcen to CV Reit in the original principal amount of
$2,500,000.00 secured by the Mortgage
Dear Michael:
This letter is to confirm CV Reit's agreement as to the
matters hereinafter set forth.
CV Reit agrees to fund the loan evidenced by the Advance Note
based upon Newcen's requests for draws thereunder as contemplated
by the Advance Note subject to the following:
(a) No sums shall be borrowed under the Advance Note if
either:
(i) the unpaid principal amount outstanding under the
"Construction Note" evidencing the "Construction Loan" (as such
terms are set forth in the Restated Loan Agreement) is less than
Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($6,500,000.00) or Seven
Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000.00) at such time
as the "Purchase Price Note" (as defined in the Restated Loan
Agreement) is repaid in full and the "Funding Limit" (as set forth
in Paragraph D of Article 4 of the Restated Loan Agreement) has
been increased to Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($7,500,000.00) as contemplated by Article 5 of the Restated Loan
Agreement; or
(ii) the unpaid principal amount outstanding under the
Note is less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00).
(b) The entire unpaid principal amount of the Advance Note
shall be repaid in full prior to making any principal repayments
under the Construction Note or the Note.
(c) The amount of funds available ("Advance Note Funding
Limit") to be drawn pursuant to the Advance Note shall be the lower
of (i) Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000.00) or
(ii) fifty percent (50%) of the amount by which Thirty Million
Dollars ($30,000,000.00) exceeds the then (at the time the Advance
Note Funding Limit is being determined) outstanding principal
balance of the "Term Loan" (as defined in the Restated Loan
Agreement) or (iii) the amount by which the sum of the following
exceeds Nine Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($9,500,000.00)
or Ten Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($10,500,000.00) at
such time as the Purchase Price Note is repaid in full and the
"Funding Limit" (as set forth in Paragraph D of Article 4 of the
Restated Loan Agreement) has been increased to Seven Million Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000.00) as contemplated by Article
5 of the Restated Loan Agreement:
"Net" (as defined in Paragraph D of Article 4 of the
Restated Loan Agreement) condominium building inventory, plus Net
on-site land improvements, plus Net "Community Wide Improvements"
(as defined in Paragraph D of Article 4 of the Restated Loan
Agreement) west of S.W. 136th Avenue plus Three Thousand Dollars
($3,000.00) per Unit remaining to be delivered east of S.W. 136th
Avenue (based on the number of Units as set forth in said Paragraph
D of Article 4 of the Restated Loan Agreement) and One Thousand
Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500.00) per Unit remaining to be delivered
west of S.W. 136th Avenue (based upon the number of Units as set
forth in said Paragraph D of Article 4 of the Restated Loan
Agreement). Reference to S.W. 136th Avenue is, of course, a
reference to S.W. 136 Avenue through "Century Village" (as set
forth in the Restated Loan Agreement) and, of course, the Units
referred to are Units in Century Village.
(d) The same conditions precedent to CV Reit's obligations to
fund under the Construction Note shall also be conditions precedent
to CV Reit's obligations to fund under the Advance Note except that
the above Advance Note Funding Limit (and not the "Funding Limit"
set forth in Paragraph D of Article 4 of the Restated Loan
Agreement) applies to the Advance Note.
(e) The terms and provisions of Paragraph A (including,
without limitation, subparagraphs 1 through 7, both inclusive, of
said Paragraph A) and Paragraph C of that certain letter dated
November 30, 1992 from Hilcoast Development Corp. ("Hilcoast") to
Alvin Wilensky, President of CV Reit, apply to the Advance Note,
the funds to be advanced thereunder and the payment of interest
and/or commitment fees, all as set forth in said Paragraphs A and
C of said letter.
(f) The Agreement to Use Best Reasonable Efforts to Obtain
Construction Financing dated September 18, 1992, by and among
Newcen, Hilcoast and CV Reit.
Further, CV Reit agrees that at such time as Newcen complies
with the requirements for a release of a "Unit(s)" from the lien of
the Prior Mortgages, CV Reit shall also release such Unit(s) from
the lien of the Mortgage for no additional consideration.
CV Reit recognizes that Newcen is relying upon this letter in
executing the Advance Note and the "Notice and Agreement of Future
Advance" (to be executed contemporaneously with the execution of
the Advance Note) and that Hilcoast is relying upon this letter in
guaranteeing the Advance Note.
Please have Newcen confirm its agreement with, and have
Hilcoast confirm its consent to, the terms and provisions hereof by
having such entities execute the copy of this letter which has been
provided and return same to me. By Hilcoast's execution of that
copy of this letter, Hilcoast will further be confirming that it is
the sole shareholder of Newcen; that, as such shareholder, Hilcoast
will be benefiting from the Two Million Five Hundred Thousand
Dollar ($2,500,000.00) loan to be evidenced by the Advance Note;
and that Hilcoast desires to induce CV Reit to extend said Two
Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollar ($2,500,000.00) loan to
Newcen. Of course, CV Reit will be relying upon Newcen and
Hilcoast executing such copy of this letter in making that Two
Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollar ($2,500,000.00) loan.

RE: Mortgage ("Mortgage") including the Rider ("Rider") thereto
from Newcen Communities, Inc. ("Newcen") to CV Reit, Inc. ("CV
Reit") recorded in Official Records Book 21247, at Page 768 of
the Public Records of Broward County, Florida securing that
certain Promissory Note ("Note") in the original principal
amount of $3,000,000.00/Future Advance Promissory Note
("Advance Note") from Newcen to CV Reit in the original
principal amount of $2,500,000.00 secured by the
Mortgage/"Restated Loan Agreement" as referred to in that
certain Second Modification of Existing Notes and Mortgages
recorded in Official Records Book 19737, at Page 647 of the
Public Records of Broward County, Florida
Dear Michael:
In connection with the Note and Mortgage I sent you a letter
dated September 30, 1993 ("1993 Letter") which was confirmed and
agreed to on behalf of Newcen by Jack Jaiven, Vice President. In
connection with the Advance Note, I sent you a letter dated
September 15, 1994 ("l994 Letter") which was confirmed and agreed
to on behalf of Newcen by Jack Jaiven, Vice President.
Paragraph (c) of the 1993 Letter begins "The amount of funds
available ("Note Funding Limit") to be drawn pursuant to the Note
...". Similarly, Paragraph (c) of the 1994 Letter begins "The
amount of funds available ("Advance Note Funding Limit") to be
drawn pursuant to the Advance Note ...". Further, Paragraph D of
Article 4 of the Restated Loan Agreement entitled "Funds Available"
begins "The amount of funds available ("Funding Limit") to be drawn
pursuant to the Construction Note ...".
By way of clarification, this letter will confirm the
understanding of Newcen, CV Reit and Hilcoast Development Corp.
("Hilcoast") that in each instance just mentioned the reference to
"the amount of funds available ... to be drawn ..." means net of
the principal sums then outstanding under the promissory note in
question. By way of example, if the Advance Note Funding Limit was
$500,000 and if the outstanding principal amount of the Advance
Note was $400,000, Newcen would only be entitled to draw an
additional $100,000 at that time.
Please confirm your agreement with the foregoing by signing
the copy of this letter which is enclosed herewith; having Hilcoast
do likewise; and returning same to me.
Very truly yours,
