                    THACKERAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                            June 30, 1996 and 1995

                                  (UNAUDITED)

1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      The significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the
      preparation of these unaudited interim financial statements are consistent
      with the accounting policies followed in the audited annual financial
      statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
      normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
      have been included.

      Certain information and footnote disclosures included in the annual
      audited financial statements have been omitted. For additional
      information, reference is made to the financial statements and notes
      thereto included in the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders for the
      year ended December 31, 1995.

      The net loss applicable to common stock from continuing operations and
      from discontinued operations for the six month and three month periods
      ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 were divided by the number of shares
      outstanding during the periods to determine per share data.

2.    INCOME TAXES

      The Company anticipates that based on the current status of the proposed
      sale of its Dade County property, it will generate Federal taxable income
      for the year ended December 31, 1996. As a result, however, of the
      existence of net operating loss carryforwards, it expects that no Federal
      income taxes will be payable for the year ending December 31, 1996. In
      addition, for the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company generated a
      net Federal income tax loss. Accordingly, no Federal income tax provisions
      (credits) for the six month and three month periods ended June 30, 1995
      were reported.

3.    STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS

      There were no interest payments from continuing operations during the six
      months ended June 30, 1996. During the six months ended June 30, 1995,
      interest payments from continuing operations were $5,000.

      There were no income tax payments from continuing operations, during the
      six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.

Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
            Condition and Results of Operations
            -----------------------------------

      (1)   Material changes in financial condition
      ---   ---------------------------------------

            The Company anticipates that its current cash balance will be
sufficient to fund its requirements for the foreseeable future.

            At June 30, 1996 the Company had no material commitments for capital
expenditures.

            In March 1996, the Company entered into a contract for the sale of
its 90.9 acre Dade County, Florida property for $2.5 million. The closing is
contingent on the buyer's obtaining development approvals for the intended use
of the property. If such approvals are obtained, the contract contemplates a
fourth quarter 1996 closing. Such contract amount is in excess of the carrying
value of the property.

            In connection with the aforementioned contract, during the three
months ended June 30, 1996 the Company received a $90,000 deposit from the
buyer.

      (2)   Material changes in results of operations
      ---   -----------------------------------------

            Total real estate revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1996
were $35,000 versus $41,000 for the comparable period in 1995, which included
proceeds form the sale of real estate of $4,000.

            Property carrying costs for the first six months of 1996 were
$35,000 or 24.3% lower than the amount incurred for 1995. The decrease is due to
the agreement with Belz Enterprises (see Part II. OTHER INFORMATION), wherein
certain expenditures of the related property are charged to the Partnership, and
not directly incurred by the Company. During the six months ended June 30, 1996
there were $84,000 of such expenditures charged to the Partnership.

            General and administrative expenses decreased by $7,000 or 2.9% from
amounts reported in the first six months of 1995. The decrease was primarily due
to a decrease in professional costs.

Part II.    OTHER INFORMATION
- --------    -----------------

Item 5.     Other Information
- -------     -----------------

            On May 20, 1996, the Company and affiliates of Belz Enterprises
("Belz") entered into an Agreement of Limited Partnership of BT Orlando Limited
Partnership (the "Partnership"). Pursuant to this agreement, the Company will
contribute approximately 140 acres of its Orlando, Florida property (the
"Contributed Property") to the Partnership when the requisite construction
financing is obtained, such property to be valued at $15,246,000 for capital
account purposes. The Partnership, with an affiliate of Belz and Brennand-Paige
Industries, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, as general partners, will
develop, construct, operate and lease a retail and entertainment shopping center
complex on the Contributed Property (the "Project"). The Company will
participate in the cash flow, sales proceeds and refinancing proceeds from the
development, financing or disposition of the Project.

            In addition, on May 20, 1996, the Company and Belz Investco entered
into a letter agreement regarding the development of the remaining approximately
78 acres of the Company's Orlando, Florida property (the "Phase II Property"),
such property to be valued at $8,487,000 for capital account purposes. Pursuant
to this letter agreement, the parties agreed to form a new partnership (the
"Number 2 Partnership") to develop 22.5 acres of the Phase II Property as
commercial property and 55.5 acres of the Phase II Property as multi-family
residential property. Each of the Company, through a subsidiary, and Belz, or
one of its affiliates, will be 50% owners of the Number 2 Partnership.

            The consummation of these transactions is subject to approval of the
Company's stockholders at its 1996 Annual Meeting. For further information
concerning these transactions, reference is made to the Company's Proxy
Statement for such meeting dated August 5, 1996.
