Item 5. Other Events

Meditrust Corporation ("Meditrust") and Meditrust Operating Company ("Operating
Company", and together with Meditrust, "The Meditrust Companies") hereby amend
and restate the Joint Current Report on Form 8-K of The Meditrust Companies,
event date January 3, 1998, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
on March 10, 1998, to read in its entirety as follows:


                   UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     On January 3, 1998, La Quinta Inns, Inc. ("La Quinta"), Meditrust and
Operating Company entered into a merger agreement (the "Merger Agreement"),
pursuant to which La Quinta will merge with and into Meditrust with Meditrust
being the surviving corporation (the "Merger"). As a result of the Merger,
Meditrust will acquire all of the assets and liabilities of La Quinta and will
assume or retire La Quinta's existing indebtedness.

     La Quinta is currently one of the largest owners/operators of mid-priced
hotels, without food and beverage facilities, in the United States, having over
270 inns and hotels primarily located in the western and southern United States.
La Quinta was formed and incorporated in Texas in 1968 originally as La Quinta
Motor Inns, Inc. La Quinta became a publicly traded entity in 1972 and adopted
its present name in 1992.

   
     Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, shareholders of La Quinta
may receive a combination of common stock of The Meditrust Companies (the
"Paired Shares") and the earnings and profit distribution referred to below, or
they may elect to receive cash, subject to the amount of aggregate cash payable
to La Quinta shareholders being limited to approximately $521 million
(representing approximately 24% to 28% of the total merger consideration
depending on the Meeting Date Price described below). The stock consideration
will be payable in Paired Shares under an exchange ratio determined based on the
average closing price of the Paired Shares for 20 randomly determined trading
days in a 30 trading day period ending the eighth day prior to La Quinta's
shareholder meeting called to consider the Merger (the "Meeting Date Price").

     The Merger Agreement provides that the La Quinta shareholders receiving
stock consideration will receive Paired Shares in an amount, based on the
Meeting Date Price, equal to the difference between $26.00 and the earnings and
profit distribution to be received per La Quinta share, so long as the Meeting
Date Price is between $34.20 and $41.80. La Quinta shareholders receiving stock
consideration will also receive the earnings and profit distribution so long as
they hold the Paired Shares on the applicable record date. The earnings and
profit distribution is expected to be declared immediately prior to the Merger,
payable to all shareholders of record of The Meditrust Companies on a date to be
determined by Meditrust between the fifteenth and the forty-fifth day following
the Merger and payable within fifteen days of such record date.

     The Merger Agreement provides that if the Meeting Date Price is greater
than or equal to $41.80 but less than or equal to $45.60, the exchange ratio for
each share of La Quinta common stock exchanged into Paired Shares will be
0.6220, reduced by the consideration to be received in the earnings and profit
distribution per La Quinta share (resulting in total consideration based on the
Meeting Date Price ranging from $26.00 to $28.36 per share of La Quinta common
stock, including the earnings and profit distribution, as the Meeting Date Price
increases through this range). If the Meeting Date Price is greater than $45.60,
then each La Quinta share will be entitled to receive $28.36 in total
consideration based on the Meeting Date Price, comprised of Paired Shares and
the earnings and profit distribution referred to above.

     The Merger Agreement further provides that if the Meeting Date Price is
less than $34.20 but greater than or equal to $30.40, the exchange ratio for
each share of La Quinta common stock exchanged into Paired Shares will be
0.7602, reduced by the amount to be received in the earnings and profit
distribution per La Quinta share (resulting in total consideration based on the
Meeting Date Price ranging from $26.00 to $23.11 per share of La Quinta common
stock, including the earnings and profit distribution, as the Meeting Date Price
decreases through this range). If the Meeting Date Price is below $30.40, La
Quinta will have the right to terminate the Merger Agreement under certain
circumstances, subject to a "top-up" right exercisable by Meditrust, which is
designed to return total consideration per La Quinta share based on the Meeting
Date Price to at least $23.11 inclusive of the earning and profit distribution.
If the Meeting Date Price is below $28.50, La Quinta will have the unilateral
right to terminate the Merger Agreement.
    

     The Merger is subject to various conditions including, without limitation,
approval of the Merger by two-thirds of the outstanding shares of La Quinta
common stock, by a majority of the outstanding shares of The Meditrust
Companies, and regulatory agencies.

     In addition, on January 11, 1998, The Meditrust Companies and Cobblestone
Holdings, Inc. ("Cobblestone") entered into a merger agreement (the "Cobblestone
Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which Cobblestone will merge with and into
Meditrust (the "Cobblestone Merger" and, together with the Merger, the "La
Quinta/Cobblestone Mergers"). Cobblestone is a privately held company and one of
the leading owners/operators of golf courses in the United States. Cobblestone
has a portfolio of 25 facilities with 29 courses in major golf markets in
Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Texas and Virginia.

     Under the terms of the Cobblestone Merger Agreement, The Meditrust
Companies will acquire all of the outstanding common stock of Cobblestone for
Paired Shares and all of the outstanding preferred stock of Cobblestone for
either Paired Shares or, at The Meditrust Companies' option, cash, with an
aggregate value of approximately $241 million. The number of Paired Shares to
be issued in the Cobblestone Merger is expected to be 7,928,000 shares using
$30.40 as the assumed Paired Share stock price, subject to adjustment in the
manner described in the Cobblestone Merger Agreement. In addition,
approximately $169 million of Cobblestone debt and associated costs will be
refinanced or assumed as a condition of the closing. The Cobblestone Merger is
subject to customary closing conditions.

     The Pro Forma Financial Statements included herein have been adjusted for
the purchase method of accounting whereby the hotels, golf courses and related
improvements and other assets and liabilities owned by La Quinta and Cobblestone
are adjusted to estimated fair market value. The fair market value of the assets
and liabilities of La Quinta and Cobblestone have been determined based upon
preliminary estimates and are subject to change as additional information is
obtained. Management does not anticipate that the preliminary allocation of
purchase costs based upon the estimated fair market value of the assets and
liabilities of La Quinta and Cobblestone will materially change; however, the
allocation of purchase costs are subject to final determination based upon
estimates and other evaluations of fair market value as of the close of the
transactions. Therefore, the allocations reflected in the following unaudited
Pro Forma Financial Statements may differ from the amounts ultimately
determined.

     The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Statements of Operations
presented assume the La Quinta/ Cobblestone Mergers had been consummated on
terms set forth in the respective merger agreement at the beginning of the
period presented. The results of the operations of Santa Anita Realty
Enterprises ("Santa Anita Realty") and Santa Anita Operating Company ("Santa
Anita Operating") for periods prior to the merger of the corporate predecessors
of Meditrust and Operating Company into Santa Anita Realty and Santa Anita
Operating, respectively, which occurred on November 5, 1997, are not included in
the unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Statements of Operations because such results
are not significant. In addition, the unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined
Balance Sheet presented assumes the La Quinta/Cobblestone Mergers had occurred
on March 31, 1998.

     Separate Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the
year ended December 31, 1997 and the three months ended March 31, 1998 are
presented for both Meditrust and Operating Company as they are legally separate
registrants. In addition, Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the three months ended
March 31, 1998 are presented to show the impact of the La Quinta/Cobblestone
Mergers on The Meditrust Companies taken as a whole.

     The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Statements of Operations for
the year ended December 31, 1997 and the three months ended March 31, 1998 of
The Meditrust Companies, Meditrust and Operating Company are derived from
historical financial information and pro forma information based in part upon
the Combined and Separate Statements of Operations of The Meditrust Companies,
filed on The Meditrust Companies' Form 10-K, as amended by amendments filed on
Form 10-K/A, for the year ended December 31, 1997 and Form 10-Q for the three
months ended March 31, 1998, and in part upon the Combined Statements of
Operations of La Quinta filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997
and Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and the Consolidated
Statements of Operations of Cobblestone Holdings, Inc. filed on Form 10-K for
the year ended September 30, 1997 and Form 10-Q for the three and six months
ended March 31, 1998. The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined
Balance Sheet is based in part upon The Meditrust Companies unaudited Combined
and Separate Balance Sheets as of March 31, 1998 and should be read in
conjunction with the La Quinta and Cobblestone unaudited financial statements
as of March 31, 1998. In management's opinion, all material adjustments
necessary to reflect the effects of the La Quinta/Cobblestone Mergers have been
made.

     The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Statements of Operations are
not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of The Meditrust
Companies would have been assuming such transactions had been completed as of
the beginning of the period presented, nor do they purport to represent the
results for future periods.

     The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet is not
necessarily indicative of what the actual financial position would have been
assuming that the La Quinta/Cobblestone Mergers had been completed as of March
31, 1998, nor does it purport to represent the future financial position of The
Meditrust Companies.

                            The Meditrust Companies
          Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations
                      for the Year Ended December 31, 1997
                    (In Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts)
                                   (Unaudited)

(A) Represents the pro forma results of operations of Meditrust for the year
ended December 31, 1997 as adjusted for the Merger and the Cobblestone Merger.

(B) Represents the pro forma results of operations of Operating Company for the
year ended December 31, 1997 as adjusted for the Merger and the Cobblestone
Merger.

(C) Represents the elimination of rental income and expense related to the race
track, hotels and golf course properties leased by Operating Company from
Meditrust.

(D) Represents the elimination of interest income and expense related to the
operating note between Meditrust and Operating Company.

   
     (E) Basic and diluted weighted average shares include 8,500 paired shares
of Series A Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock issued in a private placement by
The Meditrust Companies to Merrill Lynch International (the "Forward Equity
Transaction"). In connection with the Forward Equity Transaction, The Meditrust
Companies entered into a Purchase Price Adjustment Mechanism Agreement, dated as
of February 26, 1998, with Merrill Lynch International (the "Price Adjustment
Agreement"), pursuant to which the parties agreed to adjust the purchase price
of the 8,500,000 paired shares of Series A Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock
on or prior to February 26, 1999 by the difference between (i) the market price
for the Paired Shares at the time of the settlement and (ii) a reference price
(the "Reference Price") based on the closing price for the Paired Shares on
February 25, 1998 plus a forward accretion, minus an adjustment to reflect
distributions on the Paired Shares during the transaction period (such
difference, the "Price Difference"). If the Price Difference is positive,
Merrill Lynch International is obligated to deliver Paired Shares or cash to The
Meditrust Companies equal in value to the aggregate Price Difference. If the
Price Difference is negative, The Meditrust Companies are obligated to deliver
additional Paired Shares equal in value to the aggregate Price Difference to
Merrill Lynch International. In the event that the market price for the Paired
Shares at the time of settlement is lower than the Reference Price, The
Meditrust Companies will have to deliver additional Paired Shares to Merrill
Lynch International, which would have dilutive effects on the capital stock of
The Meditrust Companies. Additionally, under certain adverse market conditions,
Merrill Lynch International has the right to accelerate the settlement of all or
a portion of the obligation under the Price Adjustment Agreement. Such early
settlements may force The Meditrust Companies to issue Paired Shares at a
depressed price, which may heighten the dilutive effects on the capital stock of
The Meditrust Companies.
    

The Series A Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock will receive the same dividend
as the Company's Common Stock; however, the guaranteed minimum return is Libor
plus 75 basis points. Any difference between Libor plus 75 basis points and the
dividend payments received by the shareholders will be included in an adjustment
amount under the Price Adjustment Agreement. The Company expects the annual
dividend to exceed the Libor plus 75 basis points.

This Forward Equity Transaction has been accounted for as an equity transaction
with the shares treated as outstanding from their date of issuance for both
basic and diluted earnings per share purposes. The accounting treatment for
this transaction is expected to be reviewed by the Emerging Issues Task force
(EITF). The Securities and Exchange Commission has concluded that until the
EITF has an opportunity to perform a full review of this transaction, future
transactions of this type will be accounted for as debt. For previously
completed transactions such as the Company's, the Securities and Exchange
Commission will not object to the accounting treatment reflected in the Pro
Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations.

                            The Meditrust Companies
          Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations
                    for the Three Months Ended March 31, 1998
                    (In Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts)
                                   (Unaudited)

(A) Represents the pro forma results of operations of Meditrust for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 as adjusted for the Merger and the Cobblestone
Merger.

(B) Represents the pro forma results of operations of Operating Company for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 as adjusted for the Merger and the
Cobblestone Merger.

(C) Represents the elimination of rental income and expense related to the race
track, hotels and golf course properties leased by Operating Company from
Meditrust.

(D) Represents the elimination of interest income and expense related to the
operating note between Meditrust and Operating Company.

(E) Basic and diluted weighted average shares include 8,500 shares of Series A
Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock issued in a Forward Equity Transaction on
February 27, 1998.

   
The Series A Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock will receive the same dividend
as the Company's Common Stock; however, the guaranteed minimum return is Libor
plus 75 basis points. Any difference between Libor plus 75 basis points and the
dividend payments received by the shareholders will be included in an adjustment
amount under the Price Adjustment Agreement. The Company expects the annual
dividend to exceed the Libor plus 75 basis points.
    

This Forward Equity Transaction has been accounted for as an equity transaction
with the shares treated as outstanding from their date of issuance for both
basic and diluted earnings per share purposes. The accounting treatment for
this transaction is expected to be reviewed by the Emerging Issues Task force
(EITF). The Securities and Exchange Commission has concluded that until the
EITF has an opportunity to perform a full review of this transaction, future
transactions of this type will be accounted for as debt. For previously
completed transactions such as the Company's, the Securities and Exchange
Commission will not object to the accounting treatment reflected in the Pro
Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations.

</TABLE>

(G) Represents adjustments to reflect amortization of goodwill of $16,556 and
$7,930 pertaining to the mergers with La Quinta and Cobblestone, respectively.
Goodwill represents purchase consideration in excess of the fair market value
of the net assets of La Quinta and Cobblestone. Amortization of goodwill is
computed using the straight line method over a 20 year estimated useful life.

(H) Represents adjustment to increase depreciation of real estate and
personalty and amortization of intangible assets acquired. Depreciation is
computed using the straight line method and is based upon the estimated useful
lives of 30 years for buildings and improvements, 20 years for land
improvements and 5 to 7 years for personal property. Amortization of the
tradename asset is computed using the straight line method over a 20 year
estimated life. Intangible assets for the assembled work force and customer
reservation system are amortized on a straight line basis over a 3 year
estimated life. These estimates are based upon management's knowledge of the
properties and the hotel and golf course industries in general.

(I) Represents adjustments to interest expense based upon the reduction in
additional borrowings assumed to be incurred in connection with the La
Quinta/Cobblestone Mergers, effected through the receipt of approximately
$272,000 on February 27, 1998 from the issuance of 8,500 shares of Series A
Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock in a Forward Equity Transaction, which is
assumed to have occurred as of January 1, 1997 for pro forma purposes.

Interest expense on additional borrowings under The Meditrust Companies'
Revolving Credit Facility assumes an average interest rate of 7.5%. An increase
of 25 basis points in the interest rate on this variable rate debt would
increase pro forma interest expense by $2,217, decrease net income to $162,998
and decrease basic earnings per share by $0.02 based upon 135,999 basic
weighted average common shares outstanding.


                                       13
<PAGE>


(J) Basic and diluted weighted average shares include 8,500 shares of Series A
Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock issued in a Forward Equity Transaction on
February 27, 1998.

   
The Series A Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock will receive the same dividend
as the Company's Common Stock; however, the guaranteed minimum return is Libor
plus 75 basis points. Any difference between Libor plus 75 basis points and the
dividend payments received by the shareholders will be included in an adjustment
amount under the Price Adjustment Agreement. The Company expects the annual
dividend to exceed the Libor plus 75 basis points.
    

This Forward Equity Transaction has been accounted for as an equity transaction
with the shares treated as outstanding from their date of issuance for both
basic and diluted earnings per share purposes. The accounting treatment for
this transaction is expected to be reviewed by the Emerging Issues Task force
(EITF). The Securities and Exchange Commission has concluded that until the
EITF has an opportunity to perform a full review of this transaction, future
transactions of this type will be accounted for as debt. For previously
completed transactions such as the Company's, the Securities and Exchange
Commission will not object to the accounting treatment reflected in the Pro
Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

(G) Represents adjustments to reflect amortization of goodwill of $4,139 and
$1,982 pertaining to the mergers with La Quinta and Cobblestone, respectively.
Goodwill represents purchase consideration in excess of the fair market value
of the net assets of La Quinta and Cobblestone. Amortization of goodwill is
computed using the straight line method over a 20 year estimated useful life.

(H) Represents adjustment to increase depreciation of real estate and
personalty and amortization of intangible assets acquired. Depreciation is
computed using the straight line method and is based upon the estimated useful
lives of 30 years for buildings and improvements, 20 years for land
improvements and 5 to 7 years for personal property. Amortization of the
tradename asset is computed using the straight line method over a 20 year
estimated life. Intangible assets for the assembled work force and customer
reservation system are amortized on a straight line basis over a 3 year
estimated life. These estimates are based upon management's knowledge of the
properties and the hotel and golf course industries in general.

(I) Represents adjustments to interest expense based upon the reduction in
additional borrowings assumed to be incurred in connection with the La
Quinta/Cobblestone Mergers, effected through the receipt of approximately
$272,000 on February 27, 1998, from the issuance of 8,500 shares of Series A
Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock in a Forward Equity Transaction, which is
assumed to have occurred as of January 1, 1997 for pro forma purposes.

Interest expense on additional borrowings under The Meditrust Companies'
Revolving Credit Facility assumes an average interest rate of 7.5%. An increase
of 25 basis points in the interest rate on this variable rate debt would
increase pro forma interest expense by $554, decrease net income to $51,501 and
decrease basic earnings per share by $0.00 based upon 149,626 basic weighted
average common shares outstanding.

(J) Basic and diluted weighted average shares include 8,500 shares of Series A
Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock issued in a Forward Equity Transaction on
February 27, 1998.

   
The Series A Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock will receive the same dividend
as the Company's Common Stock; however, the guaranteed minimum return is Libor
plus 75 basis points. Any difference between Libor plus 75 basis points and the
dividend payments received by the shareholders will be included in an adjustment
amount under the Price Adjustment Agreement. The Company expects the annual
dividend to exceed the Libor plus 75 basis points.
    

This Forward Equity Transaction has been accounted for as an equity transaction
with the shares treated as outstanding from their date of issuance for both
basic and diluted earnings per share purposes. The accounting treatment for
this transaction is expected to be reviewed by the Emerging Issues Task force
(EITF). The Securities and Exchange Commission has concluded that until the
EITF has an opportunity to perform a full review of this transaction, future
transactions of this type will be accounted for as debt. For previously
completed transactions such as the Company's, the Securities and Exchange
Commission will not object to the accounting treatment reflected in the Pro
Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

        Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations
                      For the Year Ended December 31, 1997
                    (In Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts)
                                   (Unaudited)

(A) Represents the historical statement of operations of Operating Company for
the period ended December 31, 1997.

(B) Represents the historical statement of operations of La Quinta for the year
ended December 31, 1997.

(C) Represents the historical statement of operations of Cobblestone for the
year ended September 30, 1997.

(D) Represents adjustments to Operating Company's results of operations
assuming the Merger had occurred as of January 1, 1997.

(E) Represents adjustments to Operating Company's results of operations
assuming the Cobblestone Merger had occurred as of January 1, 1997.

(F) Represents the adjustment to defer all initiation fee revenue from the sale
of club memberships along with the direct incremental costs of selling the
memberships, and to amortize deferred revenue over the expected term of
memberships and supported by a course by course analysis of member attrition.
The incremental direct costs incurred with the selling of memberships will be
deferred and capitalized in a manner similar to deferred loan costs in
accordance with SFAS No. 91.

(G) Represents the adjustment to reclassify interest, depreciation and
amortization expenses related to the ownership of real estate assets from
Operating Company to Meditrust.

(H) Represents the pro forma lease expense of Operating Company for the use of
assets that Meditrust will have ownership of subsequent to the La
Quinta/Cobblestone mergers. The respective lease expense is calculated on a
triple net basis based upon the historical revenue and expenses of the assets
for the periods presented.

(I) Represents the adjustment to La Quinta's and Cobblestone's income tax
provisions necessitated by the impact to taxable income from the effects of the
Merger.

(J) Represents the adjustment to eliminate semi-annual investment banking and
service fees to an affiliate of the majority shareholder of Cobblestone.

(K) Basic and diluted weighted average shares include 8,500 shares of Series A
Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock issued in a Forward Equity Transaction on
February 27, 1998.

   
The Series A Non-Voting Convertible Common Stock will receive the same dividend
as the Company's Common Stock; however, the guaranteed minimum return is Libor
plus 75 basis points. Any difference between Libor plus 75 basis points and the
dividend payments received by the shareholders will be included in an adjustment
amount under the Price Adjustment Agreement. The Operating Company expects the
annual dividend to exceed the Libor plus 75 basis points.
    

This Forward Equity Transaction has been accounted for as an equity transaction
with the shares treated as outstanding from their date of issuance for both
basic and diluted earnings per share purposes. The accounting treatment for
this transaction is expected to be reviewed by the Emerging Issues Task force
(EITF). The Securities and Exchange Commission has concluded that until the
EITF has an opportunity to perform a full review of this transaction, future
transactions of this type will be accounted for as debt. For previously
completed transactions such as the Operating Company's, the Securities and
Exchange Commission will not object to the accounting treatment reflected in
the Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations.
