NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, continued
-------------------------------------------------------
INCOME TAXES
------------
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the
difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and
liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which
the differences are expected to reverse.
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
----------------------------
The Company places its cash and investments for its Replacement Fund
(See Note 3) with a high credit quality institution. At times such
investments may be in excess of FDIC insured limits.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
-----------------
Certain 1995 amounts have been reclassified for purposes of comparison
with the 1996 presentation.
ESTIMATES
---------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
-----------------------------------
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair
value of each class of financial instruments:
1. Cash and cash equivalents - The carrying amounts approximate fair
value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
2. Investments - Fair value approximates quoted market value.
3. Receivables - The carrying amount approximates fair value because
of the short maturity of these instruments.
4. Debt - The carrying amounts approximate fair value based on
borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank loans
with similar terms.

--------------
Long-term debt represents a mortgage payable to the Greater New York
Savings Bank, collateralized by land, buildings and boiler, due July
1, 1997. Monthly payments inclusive of interest at 10% per annum are
$63,642 and the balance of the principal is due on July 1, 1997.
Principal payments due on this mortgage for the next two years are
approximately $118,000 (1996-nine months) and $6,008,000 (1997).
NOTE 5 - DIVIDENDS PAYABLE AND CAPITAL STOCK

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995
NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
------------
Deferred tax assets are due primarily to the different methods of
depreciation of fixed assets and write-offs for accounts receivable
used for financial reporting and tax reporting purposes. Valuation
allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax
assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is
the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change
during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities .
Net deferred tax assets in the accompanying balance sheets are as
follows:
March 31, 1996
--------------
Total Deferred Tax Asset $ 506,000
Less: Valuation Allowance 372,000
----------
Net Deferred Tax Asset $ 134,000
==========
There has been no change in the allowance as of March 31, 1996.
NOTE 7 - MANAGEMENT FEE
--------------
The management fee, set by DHCR, was paid to Cherry Green Property
Corp. (Cherry Green), the owner of approximately 95% of the
outstanding shares of the Registrant. Such fee is reviewed and
adjusted annually effective July 1 of each year, by the DHCR.
On March 8, 1996 the DHCR approved a 2.3% increase in the management
fee effective July 1, 1995.
NOTE 8 - PENSION PLAN
------------
Certain employees of the Company are covered under a union sponsored,
multi-employer defined benefit pension plan. This plan is not
administered by the Company and contributions are determined by the
union. Contributions for this plan were approximately $17,000 and
$11,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995
NOTE 9 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
-----------------------------
As of March 31, 1996, the Company was in arrears on its contributions
as required by DHCR to its' special fund for replacements, painting
and decorating in the amount of approximately $725,000 (Note 3).
The Company has future commitments for expenditures relating to lead
paint remediation and asbestos abatement of approximately $400,000 for
the years ending December 31, 1996 and 1997. Costs of any additional
expenditures relating to the Company's buildings, if necessary, cannot
be determined at this time. No costs have been accrued in the
financial statements as of March 31, 1996.
NOTE 10 - DEPARTURE FROM GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company has a policy of expensing appliances as they are
purchased, rather than capitalizing these fixed assets to conform with
generally accepted accounting principles. Management's experience has
indicated that the normal useful life of such appliances (including
refrigerators and stoves) were considerably shorter. This departure
from generally accepted accounting principles had no effect on net
income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995.
NOTE 11 - RENTAL INCOME
-------------
During April, 1996 the Company received a two step rent increase which
was approved by DHCR. The first increase of approximately 5.5% will be
effective June 1, 1996 and the second increase of approximately 5.3%
will be effective June 1, 1997.
