NOTE B - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

     STOCK OPTION PLAN

     In June 1996, the Company adopted the 1996 Outside  Directors' Stock Option
Plan  (the  "Directors'  Plan"),  which  provides  for the grant of  options  to
purchase common stock of the Company to  non-employee  directors of the Company.
The  Directors'  Plan  authorizes  the issuance of a maximum of 90,000 shares of
common stock.

     The Directors' Plan is  administered  by the Board of Directors.  Under the
Directors'  Plan, each  non-employee  director  elected after April 1, 1996 will
receive  options for 3,000 shares of common stock upon  election.  To the extent
that shares of common stock remain  available for the grant of options under the
Directors'  Plan,  each  year  on  April  1,  commencing  April  1,  1997,  each
non-employee  director  will be granted an option to  purchase  1,800  shares of
common  stock.  The exercise  price per share for all options  granted under the
Directors' Plan will be equal to the fair market value of the common stock as of
the date  preceding  the date of grant.  All options  vest in three equal annual
installments,  beginning on the first anniversary on the date of the grant. Each
option will be for a ten-year term, subject to earlier  termination in the event
of death or permanent disability.

     Prior to the adoption of the  Directors'  Plan,  options had been issued to
outside  directors,  of which options to purchase 28,800 shares were outstanding
at September 30, 1998.

     EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     As of April 1, 1996, the Company entered into an employment  agreement with
the Company's  President and Chief Operating Officer pursuant to which an annual
base salary  under the  employment  agreement  is  $100,000.  In June 1996,  The
President received a $25,000 cash bonus and 3,000 shares of the Company's common
stock fair valued at $.93 per share.  Mr.  Laird's  employment  with the Company
ended as of November 1, 1998.

NOTE C - CONTINGENCIES

     Whittier  Towers,  Inc., the owner of The Whittier,  an independent  living
facility  managed by The  Company,  was indebted  under a first  mortgage in the
principal amount of approximately  $4 million.  The mortgage  securing this loan
provides that a default under such loan is a default under each of the Company's
Hillside Terrace and Whitcomb Tower Mortgages.  Therefore,  a potential Whittier
Towers,  Inc.  default on this loan could result in the  foreclosure of Hillside
Terrace and Whitcomb Tower.

     Health  care and  senior  living  facilities  are  areas of  extensive  and
frequent  regulatory  change.  Changes  in the  laws or new  interpretations  of
existing laws can have a significant effect on methods of doing business,  costs
of doing  business and amounts of  reimbursement,  from  governmental  and other
payors.  The Company at all times attempts to comply with all  applicable  fraud
and abuse  laws;  however,  there can be no  assurance  that  administrative  or
judicial interpretation of existing laws or regulations will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's operations or financial conditions.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF PLAN OF OPERATION

SIX MONTHS ENDED 1997 VS. 1998

REVENUES

     Net revenues of the Company represent its gross consolidated revenues, less
charitable and Supplementary Social Security Income discounts.

     Net revenues  decreased by $37,000,  or 1 percent,  from  $3,922,000 in the
1997  period  to  $3,885,000  in  the  1998  period.   The  decrease  is  mostly
attributable  to an  $83,000  decline in  development  fees.  Resident  services
revenues increased by $63,000, or 3 percent,  from $2,353,000 in the 1997 period
to $2,416,000 in the 1998 period. The increase was a result of rate increases.

     Healthcare  services  revenues  decreased  by $18,000,  or 1 percent,  from
$1,386,000 in the 1997 period to $1,368,000 in the 1998 period. The decrease was
a result of lower occupancy.

RESIDENCE OPERATING EXPENSES

     Residence  operating  expenses include all retirement and healthcare center
operating  expenses,  including,  among other  things,  payroll and  employments
costs, food, utilities, repairs and maintenance, insurance, and property taxes.

     Residence  operating  expenses  increased  by $79,000,  or 3 percent,  from
$3,030,000 in the 1997 period to $3,109,000 in the 1998 period.  The increase is
mainly attributable to salary increases.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

     General and administrative expenses include all marketing costs, as well as
the general and  administrative  expenses  incurred at the  Company's  principal
executive  offices.  General and  administrative  expenses include,  among other
things,  administrative  salaries,  rent,  utilities,   insurance,  and  related
expenses.

     General and administrative  expenses  decreased by $59,000,  or 11 percent,
from $543,000 in the 1997 period to $484,000 in the 1998 period. The decrease is
primarily attributable to a decrease in personnel costs.

PROVISION FOR LOSS ON ADVANCES TO AFFILIATES

     During the six months  ended  September  30, 1998,  the Company  recorded a
recovery on Advances to Affiliates  aggregating $45,000 as opposed to a recovery
of $15,000 in the 1997 period.  The variance is a function of net funds paid out
or received from the  Company's  parent  (Vanguard)  and  affiliated  companies.
Future recoveries are anticipated as Vanguard liquidates some of its assets.

                                        9
<PAGE>
INTEREST EXPENSE, NET

     Interest expense, net, decreased by $12,000, or 4 percent, from $287,000 in
the 1997 period to $275,000 in the 1998 period.

INCOME TAXES

     Income  taxes in the amount of $36,000  during the 1998 period was the same
amount as in the 1997 period.

THREE MONTHS 1998 VS. 1997

     The principal  reasons for the changes in  operations  for the three months
ended  September  30, 1998 and 1997 are  outlined in the  discussion  of the Six
Months  Results.  No material items which adversely  affected  liquidity and the
financial position occurred in the three-month period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     During the 1998 period operating  activities provided cash of approximately
$279,000  compared to requiring  cash of  approximately  $64,000 from  operating
activities  in the 1997  period.  The  increase  in cash  flows  from  operating
activities was principally due to collection on Accounts Receivable.

     As of September 30, 1998 the Company had a working capital of $44,000.  The
Company's inadequate working capital has limited the Company's ability to pursue
its development  projects.  The Company is presently pursuing various strategies
to increase  available  working  capital,  including  refinancing  a substantial
portion  of  the  Company's  mortgage  indebtedness.  Although  there  can be no
assurance that any of the strategies  will be successful,  the Company  believes
that  the  underlying  value  of  its  properties  will  allow  the  Company  to
successfully implement its strategies.
