Not applicable

ITEM 4.    PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

      The Issuer's Convertible Preferred Stock cannot convert to Common Stock 
of the Issuer within the next 60 days.

<PAGE>

      On May 30, 1997, the TCW Related Entities and The Prudential Insurance 
Company of America ("PIC") entered into an agreement pursuant to which the TCW 
Related Entities agreed that at such time as PIC identifies an individual to 
serve as a trustee on the Board of Trustees of the Issuer, the TCW Related
Entities shall (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause a trustee of 
the Issuer nominated by the TCW Related Entities to resign, and (ii) vote all 
of the shares of common stock held by the TCW Related Entities, or cause the 
Board of Trustees of the Issuer to take all necessary action, to elect the 
individual identified by PIC to the Board of Trustees of the Issuer.

      Although not parties to the letter agreement, the Oaktree Entities
subsequently indicated that they intended to cause certain of their 
representatives who serve on the Issuer's board to vote in favor of the 
trustee nominated by PIC. On or about October 1, 1997, PIC informed the TCW 
Related Entities and the Oaktree Entities that PIC had identified Michael 
Joseph as a prospective member of the Issuer's board. On or about October 7, 
1997, Bruce Karsh resigned from the Board of Trustees. At a meeting of the 
Board of Trustees on October 7, 1997, Michael Joseph was elected to the Board 
of Trustees.

      The TCW Related Entities and the Oaktree Entities intend to review on a 
continuing basis their respective investments in the Common Shares and may, 
subject to the continuing evaluation of the factors discussed herein, acquire 
from time to time additional Common Shares in the open market or in privately 
negotiated transactions.  Depending on the factors discussed herein, each of 
the TCW Related Entities and the Oaktree Entities may, from time to time, 
retain or sell all or a portion of their respective holdings of the Common 
Shares in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions and such 
open market and privately negotiated purchases or sales may be made at any 
time without further prior notice.  Any actions that the TCW Related Entities 
or the Oaktree Entities might undertake with respect to the Common Shares 
will be dependent upon their review of numerous factors, including, among 
other things, the availability of Common Shares for purchase and the price 
levels of such Common Shares, general market and economic conditions as well 
as those in the areas in which the Issuer's properties are located, ongoing 
evaluation of the Issuer's business, financial condition, properties, 
operations and prospects, the relative attractiveness of alternative business 
and investment opportunities, the actions of the management and the Board of 
Trustees of the Issuer, and other future developments.

     Each of the TCW Related Entities and the Oaktree Entities plan to 
continue to review various alternatives available to enhance the value of the 
Issuer and its assets and engage in discussions with other creditors and 
shareholders of the Issuer regarding such alternatives. Such review and 
discussions may result in a decision by the TCW Related Entities and/or the 
Oaktree Entities to pursue in cooperation with the Issuer and/or other 
creditors and shareholders of the Company one or more restructuring options.
