PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (the "Company" or the "Registrant"),
a Nevada corporation, is the successor to a California business trust, which
was organized on September 6, 1983 and commenced operations on January 31,
1984. The Company has elected to be treated as a Real Estate Investment Trust
("REIT") under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"). The Company has, in the opinion of management,
qualified for federal taxation as a REIT for each year subsequent to
December 31, 1983.
The Company's real estate at December 31, 1998 consisted of 77 properties
held for investment, four partnership properties and four properties held for
sale which were primarily obtained through foreclosure. 22 of the properties
held for investment were purchased during 1998. The Company's mortgage notes
receivable portfolio at December 31, 1998 consisted of 16 mortgage loans. In
addition, the Company has an interest in a partnership which holds a
wraparound mortgage loan. The Company's real estate and mortgage notes
receivable portfolios are more fully discussed in ITEM 2. "PROPERTIES."
Proposed Merger with Continental Mortgage and Equity Trust
On September 25, 1998, the Company and Continental Mortgage and Equity Trust
("CMET") jointly announced the agreement of their respective Boards for the
Company to acquire CMET. Under the proposal, the Company would acquire all of
CMET's outstanding shares of beneficial interest, in a tax free exchange, for
shares of its Common Stock. The Company will issue 1.181 shares of its Common
Stock for each outstanding share of beneficial interest of CMET. Upon the
exchange of shares CMET would merge into the Company. The share exchange and
merger are subject to a vote of shareholders of both entities. Approval
requires the vote of shareholders holding a majority of CMET's outstanding
shares of beneficial interest. As of March 5, 1999, the Company's advisor and
its affiliates held shares representing approximately 57.4% of the outstanding
shares of CMET and approximately 44.7% of the outstanding shares of the
Company. A date for the special meeting of the shareholders to vote on the
merger proposal has not been set. The Company has the same Board and advisor
as CMET.
Business Plan and Investment Policy
The Company's business is investing in real estate through direct equity
ownership and partnerships and financing real estate and real estate related
activities through investments in mortgage loans, including first, wraparound
and junior mortgage loans. The Company's real estate is located throughout the
continental United States. Information regarding the real estate and mortgage
notes receivable portfolios of the Company is set forth in ITEM 2.
"PROPERTIES", and in Schedules III and IV to the Consolidated Financial
Statements included at ITEM 8. "FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA."
The Company's business is not seasonal. The Company has determined to
continue to pursue a balanced investment policy, seeking both current income
and capital appreciation. With respect to new real estate investments, the
Company's plan of operation is to consider all types of real estate, but in an
attempt to bring balance to its real estate portfolio, it will focus on
apartments, primarily located in the Southeast and Southwest regions of the
United States. In making any new real estate investments, emphasis will be on
acquiring properties generating current cash flow. The Company expects to
continue to invest in and improve these assets to maximize both their
immediate and longer term value.
The Company expects to consider property sales opportunities for properties
in stabilized real estate markets where its properties have reached their
potential. It may also be an opportunistic seller of properties in markets
that have become overheated, i.e. an abundance of buyers.
3
<PAGE>
The Company's operating strategy with regard to its properties is to
maximize each property's operating income by aggressive property management
through closely monitoring expenses while at the same time making property
renovations and/or improvements where appropriate. While such expenditures
increase the amount of revenue required to cover operating expenses,
management believes that such expenditures are necessary to maintain or
enhance the value of the properties.
The Company has determined that in 1999 it may seek to fund or acquire new
mortgage loans to take advantage of favorable interest rate spreads or profit
participation opportunities. It may also originate mortgage loans in
conjunction with providing purchase money financing of a property sale. The
Company intends to service and hold for investment the mortgage notes in its
portfolio. It may, however, borrow against its mortgage notes using the
proceeds from such borrowings to fund additional mortgage loans or for general
working capital needs. The Company also intends to pursue its rights
vigorously with respect to mortgage notes that are in default. The Articles of
Incorporation impose no limitations on the Company's investment policy with
respect to mortgage loans and do not prohibit it from investing more than a
specified percentage of its assets in any one mortgage loan.
Management of the Company
Although the Board of Directors is directly responsible for managing the
affairs of the Company and for setting the policies which guide it, the day-
to-day operations of the Company are performed by Basic Capital Management,
Inc. ("BCM" or the "Advisor"), a contractual advisor under the supervision of
the Board of Directors. The duties of the Advisor include, among other things,
locating, investigating, evaluating and recommending real estate and mortgage
note investment and sales opportunities, as well as financing and refinancing
sources. The Advisor also serves as a consultant in connection with the
Company's business plan and investment decisions made by the Board of
Directors.
BCM is a company owned by a trust for the benefit of the children of Gene E.
Phillips. Mr. Phillips served as a Trustee of the Company's predecessor
business trust and as a Director of the Company until December 31, 1992. Mr.
Phillips also served as a director of BCM until December 22, 1989 and as Chief
Executive Officer of BCM until September 1, 1992. Mr. Phillips serves as a
representative of his children's trust which owns BCM and, in such capacity,
has substantial contact with the management of BCM and input with respect to
its performance of advisory services to the Company. BCM is more fully
described in ITEM 10. "DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND ADVISOR OF THE
REGISTRANT--The Advisor."
BCM has been providing advisory services to the Company since March 28,
1989. Renewal of BCM's advisory agreement was approved by stockholders at
their annual meeting held on May 8, 1997. BCM also serves as advisor to CMET
and Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc. ("IORI"). The Directors of the
Company are also trustees or directors of CMET and IORI and the officers of
the Company are also officers of CMET and IORI. BCM also serves as advisor to
American Realty Trust, Inc. ("ART"). Randall M. Paulson, President of the
Company, also serves as President of BCM, CMET and IORI, and as Executive Vice
President of ART. NRLP Management Corp. ("NMC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
ART, is the general partner of National Realty, L.P. ("NRLP") and National
Operating, L.P. ("NOLP"), the operating partnership of NRLP. BCM performs
certain administrative functions for NRLP and NOLP on a cost-reimbursement
basis. The officers of the Company are also officers of ART and NMC. As of
March 5, 1999, the Company owned approximately 22.7% of IORI's outstanding
shares of common stock and ART owned approximately 31.1% of the outstanding
shares of the Company's Common Stock.
Since February 1, 1990, affiliates of BCM have provided property management
services to the Company. Currently, Carmel Realty Services, Ltd. ("Carmel,
Ltd.") provides such property management services. Carmel, Ltd. subcontracts
with other entities for the provision of property-level management services to
the Company. The general partner of Carmel, Ltd. is BCM. The limited partners
of Carmel, Ltd. are (1) First Equity Properties, Inc. ("First Equity"), which
is 50% owned by a subsidiary of BCM, (2) Gene E. Phillips and (3) a trust for
the benefit of the children of Mr. Phillips. Carmel, Ltd. subcontracts the
property-level management and leasing of
4
<PAGE>
29 of the Company's commercial properties, its four hotels and the commercial
properties owned by a real estate partnership in which the Company and IORI
are partners to Carmel Realty, Inc. ("Carmel Realty"), which is a company
owned by First Equity. Carmel Realty is entitled to receive property and
construction management fees and leasing commissions in accordance with the
terms of its property-level management agreement with Carmel, Ltd. Carmel
Realty is also entitled to receive real estate brokerage commissions in
accordance with the terms of a non-exclusive brokerage agreement as discussed
in ITEM 10. "DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND ADVISOR OF THE REGISTRANT--The
Advisor."
The Company has no employees. Employees of the Advisor render services to
the Company.
Competition
The real estate business is highly competitive and the Company competes with
numerous entities engaged in real estate activities (including certain
entities described in ITEM 13. "CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED
TRANSACTIONS--Related Party Transactions"), some of which have greater
financial resources than those of the Company. Management believes that
success against such competition is dependent upon the geographic location of
the property, the performance of property managers in areas such as marketing,
collections and the ability to control operating expenses, the amount of new
construction in the area and the maintenance and appearance of the property.
Additional competitive factors with respect to commercial properties are the
ease of access to the property, the adequacy of related facilities, such as
parking, and sensitivity to market conditions in setting rent levels. With
respect to apartments, competition is also based upon the design and mix of
the units and the ability to provide a community atmosphere for the tenants.
Management believes that general economic circumstances and trends and new or
renovated properties in the vicinity of each of the Company's properties are
also competitive factors.
To the extent that the Company seeks to sell any of its properties, the
sales prices for such properties may be affected by competition from other
real estate entities and financial institutions also attempting to sell their
properties located in areas in which the Company's properties are located, as
well as by aggressive buyers attempting to penetrate or dominate a particular
market.
As described above and in ITEM 13. "CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED
TRANSACTIONS--Related Party Transactions", the officers and Directors of the
Company also serve as officers or trustees or directors of certain other
entities, each of which is also advised by BCM, and each of which has business
objectives similar to those of the Company. The Company's Directors, officers
and Advisor owe fiduciary duties to such other entities as well as to the
Company under applicable law. In determining to which entity a particular
investment opportunity will be allocated, the officers, directors or trustees
and the Advisor consider the respective investment objectives of each such
entity and the appropriateness of a particular investment in light of each
such entity's existing real estate portfolio. To the extent that any
particular investment opportunity is appropriate to more than one of such
entities, such investment opportunity will be allocated to the entity which
has had funds available for investment for the longest period of time or, if
appropriate, the investment may be shared among all or some of such entities.
In addition, as also described in ITEM 13. "CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND
RELATED TRANSACTIONS--Certain Business Relationships," the Company also
competes with other entities which are affiliates of the Advisor and which may
have investment objectives similar to the Company's and that may compete with
it in purchasing, selling, leasing and financing of real estate and real
estate related investments. In resolving any potential conflicts of interest
which may arise, the Advisor has informed management that it intends to
continue to exercise its best judgment as to what is fair and reasonable under
the circumstances in accordance with applicable law.
Certain Factors Associated with Real Estate and Related Investments
The Company is subject to all the risks incident to ownership and financing
of real estate and interests therein, many of which relate to the general
illiquidity of real estate investments. These risks include, but are not
5
<PAGE>
limited to, changes in general or local economic conditions, changes in
interest rates and the availability of permanent mortgage financing which may
render the purchase, sale or refinancing of a property difficult or
unattractive and which may make debt service burdensome, changes in real
estate and zoning laws, increases in real estate taxes, federal or local
economic or rent controls, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes and other acts of
God and other factors beyond the control of management or the Advisor. The
illiquidity of real estate investments may also impair the ability of
management to respond promptly to changing circumstances. Management believes
that such risks are partially mitigated by the diversification by geographic
region and property type of the Company's real estate and mortgage notes
receivable portfolios. However, to the extent new property investments or
mortgage lending is concentrated in any particular region or property type,
the advantages of diversification may be mitigated.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company's principal offices are located at 10670 North Central
Expressway, Suite 300, Dallas, Texas 75231. In the opinion of management, the
offices are suitable and adequate for the Company's present operations.
Details of the Company's real estate and mortgage notes receivable
portfolios at December 31, 1998, are set forth in Schedules III and IV,
respectively, to the Consolidated Financial Statements included at ITEM 8.
"FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA." The discussions set forth below
under the headings "Real Estate" and "Mortgage Loans" provide certain summary
information concerning the real estate and mortgage notes receivable
portfolios.
The Company's real estate portfolio consists of properties held for
investment, properties held for sale, primarily obtained through foreclosure
of the collateral securing mortgage notes receivable and investments in
partnerships. The discussion set forth below under the heading "Real Estate"
provides certain summary information concerning the Company's real estate and
further summary information with respect to the properties held for
investment, properties held for sale and its investment in partnerships.
At December 31, 1998, none of the Company's properties, mortgage notes
receivable or investment in a partnership exceeded 10% or more of the
Company's total assets. At December 31, 1998, 91% of the Company's assets
consisted of properties held for investment, less than 1% consisted of
properties held for sale, less than 1% consisted of mortgage notes and
interest receivable and 1% consisted of investments in partnerships. The
remaining 7% of the Company's assets at December 31, 1998 were invested in
cash, cash equivalents and other assets. The percentage of the Company's
assets invested in any one category is subject to change and no assurance can
be given that the composition of the Company's assets in the future will
approximate the percentages listed above.
The Company's real estate is geographically diverse. At December 31, 1998,
the Company held investments in apartments and commercial properties in each
of the geographic regions of the continental United States, although its
apartments and commercial properties are concentrated in the Southeast and
Southwest regions, as shown more specifically in the table under "Real Estate"
below. At December 31, 1998, the Company held mortgage notes receivable
secured by apartments and commercial properties in the Southwest region of the
continental United States, as shown more specifically in the table under
"Mortgage Loans" below.
To continue to qualify for federal taxation as a REIT under the Code, the
Company is required, among other things, to hold at least 75% of the value of
its total assets in real estate assets, government securities, cash and cash
equivalents at the close of each quarter of each taxable year.

<PAGE>
Geographic Regions
The Company has divided the continental United States into the following
geographic regions.
Northeast region comprised of the states of Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland,
Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island
and Vermont, and the District of Columbia. The Company owns 3 apartments in
this region.
Southeast region comprised of the states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia,
Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. The
Company owns 4 apartments and 12 commercial properties in this region.
Southwest region comprised of the states of Arizona, Arkansas, Louisiana,
New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas. The Company owns 26 apartments and 8
commercial properties in this region.
Midwest region comprised of the states of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas,
Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South
Dakota, West Virginia and Wisconsin. The Company owns 3 commercial properties
and 3 hotels in this region.
Mountain region comprised of the states of Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada,
Utah and Wyoming. The Company owns 2 commercial properties in this region.
Pacific region comprised of the states of California, Oregon and Washington.
The Company owns 5 apartments, 1 hotel and 5 commercial properties in this
region.
Excluded from the above are nine parcels of unimproved land, as described
below.
Real Estate
At December 31, 1998, over 90% of the Company's assets were invested in real
estate. The Company invests in real estate located throughout the continental
United States, either on a leveraged or nonleveraged basis. The Company's real
estate portfolio consists of properties held for investment, investments in
partnerships and properties held for sale (which were primarily obtained
through foreclosure of the collateral securing mortgage notes receivable).
Types of Real Estate Investments. The Company's real estate consists of
commercial properties (office buildings, industrial warehouses and shopping
centers), hotels and apartments having established income-producing
capabilities. In selecting new real estate investments, the location, age and
type of property, gross rentals, lease terms, financials and business standing
of tenants, operating expenses, fixed charges, land values and physical
condition are among the factors considered. The Company may acquire properties
subject to or assume existing debt and may mortgage, pledge or otherwise
obtain financing for its properties. The Board of Directors may alter the
types of and criteria for selecting new real estate investments and for
obtaining financing without a vote of stockholders.
The Company has typically invested in developed real estate. The Company
may, however also invest in new construction or development either directly or
in partnership with nonaffiliated parties or affiliates (subject to approval
by the Board of Directors). To the extent that the Company invests in
construction and development
7
<PAGE>
projects, it will be subject to business risks, such as cost overruns and
construction delays, associated with such higher risk projects.
At December 31, 1998, the Company had expended $1.9 million for the
construction of the 260 unit Limestone Canyon Apartments in Austin, Texas. The
Company expects to expend an additional $12.8 million to complete construction
in the fourth quarter of 1999. The Company has in place a construction loan
which will fund up to $13.0 million of such construction costs.
In the opinion of management, the properties owned by the Company are
adequately covered by insurance.
The following table sets forth the percentages, by property type and
geographic region, of the Company's real estate (other than four hotels in the
Pacific and Midwest regions and nine parcels of unimproved land, as described
below) at December 31, 1998.

Mortgage Loans
In addition to investments in real estate, a portion of the Company's assets
are invested in mortgage notes receivable, principally secured by income-
producing real estate. The Company expects that the percentage of its assets
invested in mortgage loans may increase, as it has determined that in 1999 it
may seek to fund or acquire mortgage loans. It may also originate mortgage
loans in conjunction with providing purchase money financing of a property
sale. The Company intends to service and hold for investment the mortgage
notes in its portfolio. The Company's mortgage notes receivable consist of
first and junior mortgage loans.
Types of Mortgage Activity. The Company may originate its own mortgage
loans, as well as acquire existing mortgage notes either directly from
builders, developers or property owners, or through mortgage banking firms,
commercial banks or other qualified brokers. BCM, in its capacity as a
mortgage servicer, services the Company's mortgage notes. The Company's
investment policy is described in ITEM 1. "BUSINESS--Business Plan and
Investment Policy."
Types of Properties Securing Mortgage Notes. The properties securing the
Company's mortgage notes receivable portfolio at December 31, 1998, consisted
of an apartment, a hotel, 5 developed residential lots and a
15
<PAGE>
34,847 sq. ft. parcel of unimproved land. The Board of Directors may alter the
types of properties securing or collateralizing mortgage loans in which the
Company invests without a vote of stockholders. The Company's Articles of
Incorporation impose certain restrictions on transactions with related
parties, as discussed in ITEM 13. "CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED
TRANSACTIONS."
At December 31, 1998, the Company's mortgage notes receivable portfolio
included 4 mortgage loans with an aggregate principal balance of $1.7 million
secured by income-producing real estate located in the Southeast and Southwest
regions of the continental United States and 12 loans with an aggregate
principal balance of $654,000 secured by collateral other than income-
producing real estate. At December 31, 1998, less than 1% of the Company's
assets were invested in notes and interest receivable (less than 1% in junior
and other mortgage notes).

</TABLE>
During 1998, $2.9 million was collected in settlement of four mortgage notes
and $49,000 in principal payments were received.
At December 31, 1998, less than 1% of the Company's assets were invested in
mortgage notes secured by non-income-producing real estate, comprised of a
first mortgage note secured by 34,847 sq. ft. of unimproved land in Milwaukee,
Wisconsin and five first mortgage notes secured by residential lots in
Greensboro, North Carolina.
First Mortgage Loans. The Company invests in first mortgage notes, with
short, medium or long-term maturities. First mortgage loans generally provide
for level periodic payments of principal and interest sufficient to
substantially repay the loan prior to maturity, but may involve interest-only
payments or moderate amortization of principal and a "balloon" principal
payment at maturity. With respect to first mortgage loans, the borrower is
required to provide a mortgagee's title policy or an acceptable legal title
opinion as to the validity and the priority of the mortgage lien over all
other obligations, except liens arising from unpaid property taxes and other
exceptions normally allowed by first mortgage lenders in the relevant area.
The Company may grant to other lenders, participations in first mortgage loans
that it originates.
The following discussion briefly describes the events that affected
previously funded first mortgage loans during 1998.
In February 1994, the Company provided $6.7 million of purchase money
financing in conjunction with the sale of 1,406 acres of land in 16
residential and commercial subdivisions in Maumelle, Arkansas, secured by a
16
<PAGE>
first mortgage on the properties sold. The borrower did not make the scheduled
February 1995 principal and interest payments. In September 1995, the Company
reached a settlement with the borrower that provided for, among other things,
the payment by the borrower of $2.5 million in cash, and the acceptance of a
new $1.4 million note secured by 36.3 acres of commercial land. Such note
matured in January 1996. In April 1998, the Company received $2.1 million in
full settlement of its note and accrued but unpaid interest. The original sale
had been recorded under the cost recovery method with gain being deferred
until the note was collected. Accordingly, the previously deferred gain of
$2.1 million was recognized on collection of the note.
In July 1998, a mortgage note receivable which had been written off in a
prior year, was collected. A gain of $671,000 was recognized.
Wraparound Mortgage Loans. A wraparound mortgage loan, sometimes called an
all-inclusive loan, is a mortgage loan having an original principal balance
equal to the outstanding balance under the prior existing mortgage loan(s)
plus the amount actually advanced under the wraparound mortgage loan.
Wraparound mortgage loans may provide for full, partial or no amortization of
principal. The Company's policy is to make wraparound mortgage loans in
amounts and on properties as to which it would otherwise make first mortgage
loans.
The following discussion briefly describes the events that affected
previously funded wraparound mortgage loans during 1998.
As discussed under "Real Estate" above, at December 31, 1997, the Company
held a wraparound mortgage note with a principal balance of $2.5 million
secured by a K-Mart in Cary, North Carolina. In February 1998, the Company was
informed that the first lien mortgage in the amount of $2.0 million was in
default. To protect its interest, the Company foreclosed on the property in
August 1998 and refinanced the first lien mortgage in the amount of $2.0
million, paying $265,000 in cash to complete the refinancing. No loss was
recognized on the foreclosure as the fair value of the property exceeded the
carrying value of the note receivable.
Junior Mortgage Loans. The Company may invest in junior mortgage loans. Such
loans are secured by mortgages that are subordinate to one or more prior liens
either on the fee or a leasehold interest in real estate. Recourse on such
loans ordinarily includes the real estate on which the loan is made, other
collateral and personal guarantees by the borrower. The Board of Directors
restricts investment in junior mortgage loans, excluding wraparound mortgage
loans, to not more than 10% of the Company's assets. At December 31, 1998,
less than 1% of the Company's assets were invested in junior mortgage loans.
The following discussion briefly describes the events that affected
previously funded junior mortgage loans in 1998.
In August 1998, a mortgage note receivable with a principal balance of $2.0
million and a carrying value of $207,000 and secured by a second lien on a
hotel in Lake Charles, Louisiana became delinquent. To protect its interest,
the Company purchased the first lien mortgage for $149,000. Foreclosure
proceedings have commenced and title to the property is expected to be
received in the second quarter of 1999. No loss is expected to be incurred on
foreclosure, as the estimated fair value of the property exceeds the carrying
value of the mortgage notes receivable.
Loans Secured by Collateral Other than Real Estate. In June 1992, the
Company received ten notes receivable secured by collateral other than real
estate in satisfaction of a $622,000 obligation. At December 31, 1998, five of
the notes with a combined principal balance of $374,000 remained outstanding.
The Company's investment policy precludes the origination of loans secured by
collateral other than real estate.
Partnership mortgage loans. The Company owns a 60% general partner interest
and IORI owns a 40% general partner interest in Nakash Income Associates
("NIA"), which owns a wraparound mortgage note receivable secured by a
building occupied by a Wal-Mart in Maulden, Missouri. The Company received
$9,000 in distributions from NIA in 1998 and advanced $14,000 to the
partnership.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Olive Litigation
In February 1990, the Company, together with CMET, IORI and National Income
Realty Trust, three real estate entities with, at the time, the same officers,
directors or trustees and advisor as the Company, entered into a settlement of
a class and derivative action entitled Olive et al. v. National Income Realty
Trust et al., in the United States District Court for the Northern District of
California relating to the operation and management of each of such entities.
On April 23, 1990, the Court granted final approval of the terms of the
settlement.
On May 4, 1994, the parties entered into a Modification of Stipulation of
Settlement dated April 27, 1994 (the "Olive Modification") that settled
subsequent claims of breaches of the settlement that were asserted by the
plaintiffs and modified certain provisions of the April 1990 settlement. The
Olive Modification was preliminarily approved by the Court on July 1, 1994 and
final Court approval was entered on December 12, 1994. The effective date of
the Olive Modification was January 11, 1995.
The Court retained jurisdiction to enforce the Olive Modification, and
during August and September 1996, the Court held evidentiary hearings to
assess compliance with the terms of the Olive Modification by the various
parties. The Court issued no ruling or order with respect to the matters
addressed at the hearings.
Separately, in 1996, legal counsel for the plaintiffs notified the Company's
Board of Directors that he intended to assert that certain actions taken by
the Board of Directors breached the terms of the Olive Modification. On
January 27, 1997, the parties entered into an Amendment to the Olive
Modification effective January 9, 1997 (the "Olive Amendment"), which was
submitted to the Court for approval on January 29, 1997. The Olive Amendment
provides for the settlement of all matters raised at the evidentiary hearings
and by plaintiffs' counsel in his notices to the Company's Board of Directors.
On May 2, 1997, a hearing was held for the Court to consider approval of the
Olive Amendment. As a result of the hearing, the parties entered into a
revised Olive Amendment. The Court issued an order approving the Olive
Amendment on July 3, 1997.
The Olive Amendment provides for the addition of four new unaffiliated
members to the Company's Board of Directors and sets forth new requirements
for the approval of any transactions with certain affiliates until April 28,
1999. In addition, the Company, CMET, IORI and their stockholders released the
defendants from any claims relating to the plaintiffs' allegations and matters
which were the subject of the evidentiary hearings. The plaintiffs'
allegations of any breaches of the Olive Modification shall be settled by
mutual agreement of the parties or, lacking such agreement, by an arbitration
proceeding.
Under the Olive Amendment, all shares of the Company owned by Gene E.
Phillips or any of his affiliates shall be voted at all stockholder meetings
of the Company held until April 28, 1999 in favor of all new members of the
Company's Board of Directors added under the Olive Amendment. The Olive
Amendment also requires that, until April 28, 1999, all shares of the Company
owned by Mr. Phillips or his affiliates in excess of forty percent (40%) of
the Company's outstanding shares shall be voted in proportion to the votes
cast by all non-affiliated stockholders of the Company.
In accordance with the Olive Amendment, Richard W. Douglas, Larry E. Harley
and R. Douglas Leonhard were added to the Company's Board of Directors in
January 1998 and Murray Shaw was added to the Company's Board of Directors in
February 1998.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Introduction
Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (the "Company") invests in real
estate through acquisitions, leases and partnerships and in mortgage loans on
real estate, including first, wraparound and junior mortgage loans. The
Company is the successor to a California business trust organized on September
6, 1983 which commenced operations on January 31, 1984.
20
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1998 totaled $10.5 million
compared with $24.7 million at December 31, 1997. The principal reasons for
the decrease in cash are discussed in the paragraphs below.
The Company's principal sources of cash have been and will continue to be
from property operations, proceeds from property sales, the collection of
mortgage notes receivable, borrowings and to a lesser extent, distributions
from partnerships. Management expects that the Company's cash balance at
December 31, 1998, and cash that will be generated in 1999 from the collection
of mortgage notes receivable, sales of properties and refinancing or extension
of certain of its mortgage debt will be sufficient to meet all of its cash
requirements, including debt service obligations coming due in 1999, dividend
payments and property maintenance and improvements, as more fully discussed in
the paragraphs below.
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased to $3.4 million in 1998
from $10.0 million in 1997. The primary factors contributing to the Company's
cash flow from operations are discussed in the following paragraphs.
The Company's cash flow from property operations (rents collected less
payments for property operating expenses) increased to $29.8 million in 1998
from $16.2 million in 1997. An increase of $6.1 million was due to the
purchase of 15 income producing properties in 1997 and 18 income producing
properties in 1998, an increase of $6.2 million was due to the sale of
Republic Towers Office Building in 1997, and an increase of $2.2 million was
due to increased occupancy and rents at the Company's apartments and
commercial properties, and the Company's control of operating expenses. These
increases were partially offset by a decrease of $1.2 million due to the sale
of five other income producing properties in 1997 and 1998. Management
believes that this trend of increased cash flow from property operations will
continue as a result of increased rental rates at both the Company's
apartments and commercial properties and increased occupancy at its commercial
properties.
Interest collected decreased to $807,000 in 1998 from $1.1 million in 1997.
This decrease was due to seven mortgage notes receivable being collected in
1997 and 1998 and the foreclosure of the collateral property securing another
note in 1998.
Interest paid increased to $21.2 million in 1998 from $16.0 million in 1997.
An increase of $5.7 million was due to 33 properties being purchased on a
leveraged basis in 1997 and 1998 and refinancings and financings of
unencumbered properties during 1997 and 1998. This increase was partially
offset by a decrease of $231,000 due to properties sold in 1998. Interest paid
will continue to increase as the Company purchases additional properties on a
leveraged basis.
Advisory and net income fee paid to affiliate increased to $4.1 million in
1998 from $1.8 million in 1997. This increase was due to the 1997 accrued net
income fee not being paid until 1998 and an additional $574,000 was due to an
increase in the advisory fee paid as a result of an increase in the Company's
gross assets, the basis for such fee.
General and administrative expenses paid increased to $2.7 million in 1998
from $2.5 million in 1997. This increase was due to legal fees related to the
Olive and other litigation accrued in 1997 but not paid until 1998 and an
increase in advisory cost reimbursements.
In 1997, the Company received an insurance settlement of $9.6 million
relating to 1995 hail storm and flood damage to the Republic Towers Office
Building in Dallas, Texas.
The Company received distributions from equity investees operating cash flow
of $482,000 in 1998 and $687,000 in 1997. See NOTE 5. "INVESTMENT IN EQUITY
METHOD REAL ESTATE ENTITIES."
In 1998, the Company received cash of $2.9 million from the collection of
four mortgage notes receivable and an additional $671,000 from the collection
of a mortgage note written off as uncollectible in a previous year. The
Company received net cash of a total of $81.1 million from new mortgage
borrowings and refinancings and
21
<PAGE>
an additional $31.8 million, after debt payoffs, from property sales during
1998. In 1998, the Company expended $77.4 million in cash on property
purchases and made a total of $34.6 million in principal payments on its
mortgage debt.
Scheduled principal payments on notes payable of $25.6 million are due in
1999. For those mortgages that mature in 1999, it is the Company's intention
to either seek to extend the due dates one or more years, or refinance the
debt on a long-term basis, or pay them when due. Management believes it will
continue to be successful in obtaining loan extensions or refinancings.
As discussed in NOTE 3. "REAL ESTATE AND DEPRECIATION," during 1998, the
Company funded $1.9 million for purchase of the land for the construction cost
of the 260 unit Limestone Canyon Apartments in Austin, Texas. Construction
commenced in August 1998 and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter
of 1999. The Company has obtained a financing commitment of $13.0 million for
construction of the apartment.
During 1999, the Company has continued to be an active buyer, purchasing the
264 unit Vista Hills Apartments and a parcel of undeveloped land for a total
of $8.8 million. The Company paid $2.8 million in cash, with the remainder of
the purchase prices financed through mortgage debt. The Company derived the
cash portions of these purchases from its cash on hand at December 31, 1998.
See NOTE 18. "SUBSEQUENT EVENTS."
In March 1999, the Company sold the 368 unit Mariner's Point Apartments in
St. Petersburg, Florida for $6.7 million, receiving net cash of $2.6 million.
See NOTE 18. "SUBSEQUENT EVENTS."
Pursuant to a repurchase program originally announced on December 5, 1989,
Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of a total of 687,000 shares
of the Company's Common Stock. As of March 5, 1999, a total of 409,765 shares
had been repurchased at a total cost to the Company of $3.3 million, 21,950
shares having been repurchased in 1998 at a total cost to the Company of
$336,000.
During 1998, the Company declared and paid dividends of $2.3 million or $.60
per share.
Management reviews the carrying values of the Company's properties and
mortgage notes receivable at least annually and whenever events or a change in
circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. Impairment is considered to
exist if, in the case of a property, the future cash flow from the property
(undiscounted and without interest) is less than the carrying amount of the
property. For notes receivable impairment is considered to exist if it is
probable that all amounts due under the terms of the note will not be
collected. If impairment is found to exist, a provision for loss is recorded
by a charge against earnings. The mortgage note receivable review includes an
evaluation of the collateral property securing such note. The property review
generally includes: (1) selective property inspections; (2) a review of the
property's current rents compared to market rents; (3) a review of the
property's expenses; (4) a review of maintenance requirements; (5) a review of
the property's cash flow; (6) discussions with the manager of the property;
and (7) a review of properties in the surrounding area.
Results of Operations
1998 Compared to 1997. The Company's net income for 1998 was $6.9 million
compared to $12.6 million in 1997. The Company's 1998 net income included
gains on the sale of real estate of $12.6 million. The Company's 1997 net
income included gains on sale of real estate of $21.4 million. Fluctuations in
the components of the Company's revenues and expenses between 1998 and 1997
are discussed below.
Rents increased $15.3 million in 1998 to $69.8 million compared to $54.5
million in 1997. An increase of $16.1 million was due to properties purchased
or obtained through foreclosure in 1997 and 1998; and $2.2 million was due to
increased occupancy and rental rates at the Company's apartments and
commercial properties primarily: Spa Cove Apartments, Arbor Pointe Apartments,
Woods Edge Apartments, Plaza Towers Office
22
<PAGE>
Building, 74 New Montgomery Office Building, Waterstreet Office Building,
Parke Long Warehouse and Hartford Office Building. These increases were
partially offset by a decrease of $3.0 million due to properties sold in 1997
and 1998.
Property operating expenses increased $5.9 million in 1998 to $38.3 million
as compared to $32.4 million in 1997. Of the increase, $10.0 million was due
to properties purchased in 1997 and 1998. This increase was partially offset
by a decrease of $4.0 million due to properties sold in 1997 and 1998.
Rents and property operations expenses both are expected to increase in 1999
due to anticipated increases in rents at the Company's apartments, increased
occupancy of its commercial properties and as a result of a full year of
operations of the properties acquired during 1998 and in the first quarter of
1999.
Interest income decreased to $807,000 in 1998 from $1.5 million in 1997. The
decrease in interest income was due to seven mortgage notes receivable being
collected in 1997 and 1998 and the foreclosure of the collateral property
securing another note in 1998. Interest income in 1999 is expected to
approximate 1998.
Interest expense increased to $22.8 million in 1998 from $16.8 million in
1997. Of this increase, $5.8 million was attributable to properties purchased
in 1998 and 1997 and $984,000 was attributable to property financings and
refinancings during 1998 and 1997. These increases were partially offset by a
decrease of $759,000 due to properties sold and mortgages paid off in 1998 and
1997. Interest expense is expected to increase in 1999 due to anticipated
property refinancings and the properties purchased in the first quarter of
1999 on a leveraged basis.
Depreciation increased to $10.7 million in 1998 from $9.6 million in 1997.
An increase of $2.0 million was attributable to property purchases in 1998 and
1997 and an increase of $522,000 was due to increased depreciation from
property additions and tenant improvements. These increases were partially
offset by decreases of $1.4 million due to properties sold in 1998 and 1997
and $21,000 due to assets becoming fully depreciated. Depreciation expense is
expected to increase in 1999 due to a full year of depreciation of properties
acquired in 1998 and the income producing property purchased in the first
quarter of 1999.
Advisory and net income fees decreased to $2.5 million in 1998 from $2.8
million in 1997. The decrease was due to a decrease in the net income fee in
1998 due to a decrease in net income partially offset by an increase in the
advisory fee due to an increase in gross assets, the basis for the fee. The
advisory fee is expected to increase as the Company's asset base increases.
See NOTE 10. "ADVISORY AGREEMENT."
General and administrative expenses decreased to $2.3 million in 1998 from
$2.6 million in 1997. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in legal
fees related to the Olive and other litigation (see NOTE 15. "COMMITMENTS AND
CONTINGENCIES").
In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company recognized a provision for loss
of $1.3 million to reduce the carrying value of a shopping center to its
agreed sales price less estimated costs of sale. Sale of the property occurred
in March 1998.
Equity in income of investees decreased to $288,000 in 1998 from $812,000 in
1997. Included in equity earnings in 1998 were gains on the sale of real
estate of $316,000, the Company's equity share of the gain recognized by an
equity partnership on the sale of its two apartments. Included in equity
earnings in 1997 were gains on the sale of real estate of $890,000, the
Company's equity share of the gain recognized by Income Opportunity Realty
Investors, Inc. ("IORI") on the sale of three of its apartments. The Company
expects its share of equity investees' income or losses to be minimal in 1999.
See NOTE 5. "INVESTMENT IN EQUITY METHOD REAL ESTATE ENTITIES."
In 1998, the Company recognized gains totaling $12.6 million; a $2.1 million
previously deferred gain upon collection of a mortgage note receivable related
to a property sale that had been recorded under the cost recovery method,
$671,000 from the collection of a mortgage note receivable which had been
written off in a prior year,
23
<PAGE>
$3.4 million from the sale of a shopping center in Dallas, Texas, $219,000
from the sale of an industrial warehouse in Dallas, Texas, $5.9 million from
the sale of an office building in San Diego, California and $350,000 from the
sale of 19 acres of foreclosed land in Greensboro, North Carolina. In 1997,
the Company recognized gains totaling $21.4 million; $1.4 million from the
sale of a .9976 acre parcel of land in Dallas, Texas and $19.4 million from
the sale of an office building in Dallas, Texas, $55,000 from the sale of a
foreclosed single family residence in Scottsdale, Arizona and $554,000 from
the sale of a shopping center in San Antonio, Texas. See NOTE 3. "REAL ESTATE
AND DEPRECIATION."
1997 Compared to 1996. The Company's net income for 1997 was $12.6 million
compared to a net loss of $8.1 million in 1996. The Company's 1997 net income
included gains on sale of real estate of $21.4 million. The Company's 1996 net
loss included gains on sale of real estate of $1.6 million. Fluctuations in
the components of the Company's revenues and expenses between the 1997 and
1996 are described below.
Rents increased to $54.5 million in 1997 from $45.4 million in 1996. An
increase of $6.9 million in rents was due to property purchases in 1996 and
1997; and $3.1 million was due to increased occupancy and rental rates at the
Company's residential and commercial properties primarily: Plaza Tower Office
Building, a 1% increase; Waterstreet Office Building, a 2% increase; Institute
Place Office Building, a 10% increase; 74 New Montgomery Office Building, a 2%
increase; Corporate Center at Beaumeade Office Building, a 2% increase; and
Majestic Inn, a 3% increase. These increases were partially offset by a
decrease of $865,000 due to properties sold in 1997.
Property operating expenses increased to $32.4 million in 1997 from $28.5
million in 1996. Of this increase, $4.3 million was due to properties
purchased in 1996 and 1997. This increase was partially offset by a decrease
of $504,000 due to properties sold in 1997.
Interest income of $1.5 million in 1997 approximated that of 1996.
Interest expense increased to $16.8 million in 1997 from $15.0 million in
1996. Of this increase $1.6 million was attributable to properties purchased
in 1997 and $316,000 was attributable to property financings and refinancings
during 1997. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $73,000 due
to properties sold and mortgages paid off and $71,000 due to a decrease in
interest rates on variable interest rate debt.
Depreciation increased to $9.6 million in 1997 from $8.5 million in 1996. An
increase of $752,000 was attributable to property purchases and an increase of
$515,000 was due to increased depreciation from property additions and tenant
improvements. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $63,000
due to properties sold and $88,000 due to assets becoming fully depreciated.
Advisory fee expense of $1.8 million in 1997 approximated that of 1996.
General and administrative expenses decreased to $2.6 million in 1997 from
$2.7 million in 1996. The decrease was due to a decrease in legal fees related
to the Olive and other litigation (see NOTE 15. "COMMITMENTS AND
CONTINGENCIES") partially offset by an increase in advisory cost
reimbursements and other professional fees.
As described in "Liquidity and Capital Resources" above, in 1997 the Company
received an insurance settlement of $9.6 million. In 1996, the Company
received a litigation settlement of $1.5 million.
In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company recognized a provision for loss
of $1.3 million to reduce the carrying value of a shopping center to its
agreed sales price less estimated costs of sale. Sale of the property was
completed in March 1998. In the second quarter of 1996, the Company recognized
a provision for loss of $1.6 million to reduce the carrying value of an office
building to its agreed sales price less estimated costs of sale. Sale of the
property was completed in July 1996.
24
<PAGE>
Equity in income of investees was $812,000 in 1997 compared to a loss of
$20,000 in 1996. Included in equity earnings in 1997 are gains on the sale of
real estate of $890,000, the Company's equity share of the gain recognized by
IORI on the sale of three of its apartments.
In 1997, the Company recognized gains totaling $21.4 million, $1.4 million
from the sale of a .9976 acre parcel of land and $19.4 million from the sale
of an office building, both in Dallas, Texas, $55,000 from the sale of a
foreclosed single family residence in Scottsdale, Arizona and $554,000 from
the sale of a shopping center in San Antonio, Texas. See NOTE 3. "REAL ESTATE
AND DEPRECIATION."
In 1996, the Company recognized gains totaling $1.6 million; $218,000 from
the sale of Cheyenne Mountain land, $1.4 million from the sale of Park Forest
Apartments and $56,000 from the sale of Moss Creek land. In September 1996,
the Company recognized a loss of $63,000 from the sale of Byron land. See NOTE
3. "REAL ESTATE AND DEPRECIATION."
Environmental Matters
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and
regulations, the Company may be potentially liable for removal or remediation
costs, as well as certain other potential costs, relating to hazardous or
toxic substances (including governmental fines and injuries to persons and
property) where property-level managers have arranged for the removal,
disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, certain
environmental laws impose liability for release of asbestos-containing
materials into the air, and third parties may seek recovery for personal
injury associated with such materials.
Management is not aware of any environmental liability relating to the above
matters that would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
assets or results of operations.
Inflation
The effects of inflation on the Company's operations are not quantifiable.
Revenues from property operations tend to fluctuate proportionately with
inflationary increases and decreases in housing costs. Fluctuations in the
rate of inflation also affect sales values of properties and the ultimate gain
to be realized from property sales. To the extent that inflation affects
interest rates, the Company's earnings from short-term investments, the cost
of new financings as well as the cost of variable interest rate debt will be
affected.
Tax Matters
For the years 1998, 1997 and 1996, the Company elected and in the opinion of
management, qualified to be taxed as a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT")
as defined under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code"). To continue to qualify for federal taxation as
a REIT under the Code, the Company is required to hold at least 75% of the
value of its total assets in real estate assets, government securities, cash
and cash equivalents at the close of each quarter of each taxable year. The
Code also requires a REIT to distribute at least 95% of its REIT taxable
income, plus 95% of its net income from foreclosure property, all as defined
in Section 857 of the Code, on an annual basis to stockholders.
Year 2000
Basic Capital Management, Inc. ("BCM"), the Company's advisor, has informed
management that its computer hardware operating system and computer software
have been certified as year 2000 compliant.
Further, Carmel Realty Services, Ltd. ("Carmel Ltd."), an affiliate of BCM
that performs property management services for the Company's properties, has
informed management that effective January 1, 1999, it began using year 2000
compliant computer hardware and property management software for the Company's
commercial properties. With regard to the Company's apartments, Carmel, Ltd.
has informed management that
25
<PAGE>
its subcontractors either have in place or will have in place in the first
quarter of 1999, year 2000 compliant computer hardware and property management
software.
The Company has not incurred, nor does it expect to incur, any costs related
to its computer hardware and accounting and property management software being
modified, upgraded or replaced in order to make them year 2000 compliant. Such
costs have been or will be borne by either BCM, Carmel, Ltd. or the property
management subcontractors of Carmel, Ltd.
Management has completed its evaluation of the Company's computer controlled
building systems, such as security, elevators, heating and cooling, etc., to
determine what systems are not year 2000 compliant. Management believes that
necessary modifications to such systems are insignificant and do not require
significant expenditures, as such enhanced operating systems are readily
available.
The Company has or will have in place the year 2000 compliant systems that
will allow it to operate. The risks the Company faces are that certain of its
vendors will not be able to supply goods or services and that financial
institutions and taxing authorities will not be able to accurately apply
payments made to them. The Company believes that other vendors are readily
available and that financial institutions and taxing authorities will, if
necessary, apply monies received manually. The likelihood of the above having
a significant impact on the Company's operations is negligible.

<PAGE>
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES REGARDING MARKET RISK
The Company's future operations, cash flow and fair values of financial
instruments are partially dependent upon the then existing market interest
rates and market equity prices. Market risk is the changes in the market rates
and prices, and the affect of the changes on the future operations of the
Company. The Company manages its market risk by matching the property's
anticipated net operating income to an appropriate financing.
The following table contains only those exposures that existed at December
31, 1998. Anticipation of exposures of risk on positions that could possibly
arise was not considered. The Company's ultimate interest rate risk and its
affect on the operations will depend on future capital market exposures, which
cannot be anticipated with a probable assurance level. Dollars in Thousands.

accompanying index. These financial statements and schedules are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to

principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and schedules.
We believe our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position
of Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31,

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of Transcontinental
Realty Investors, Inc. and consolidated entities (the "Company") have been
prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, the most
significant of which are described in NOTE 1. "SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES." These, along with the remainder of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements, are an integral part of the Consolidated
Financial Statements. The data presented in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements are as of December 31 of each year and for the year then
ended, unless otherwise indicated. Dollar amounts in tables are in thousands,
except per share amounts.
Certain balances for 1997 have been reclassified to conform to the 1998
presentation.
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and company business. Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc.
("TCI"), a Nevada corporation, is successor to a California business trust
which was organized on September 6, 1983 and commenced operations on January
31, 1984. The Company invests in real estate through direct equity ownership
and investments in real estate entities. It also invests in mortgage loans on
real estate, including first, wraparound and junior mortgage loans.
Proposed Merger with Continental Mortgage and Equity Trust
On September 25, 1998, the Company and Continental Mortgage and Equity Trust
("CMET") jointly announced the agreement of their respective Boards for the
Company to acquire CMET. Under the proposal, the Company would acquire all of
CMET's outstanding shares of beneficial interest, in a tax free exchange, for
shares of its Common Stock. The Company will issue 1.181 shares of its Common
Stock for each outstanding share of beneficial interest of CMET. Upon the
exchange of shares CMET would merge into the Company. The share exchange and
merger are subject to a vote of shareholders of both entities. Approval
requires the vote of a majority of the shareholders holding a majority of
CMET's outstanding shares of beneficial interest. As of March 5, 1999, the
Company's advisor and its affiliates held shares representing approximately
57.4% of the outstanding shares of CMET and approximately 44.7% of the
outstanding shares of the Company. A date for the special meeting of the
shareholders to vote on the merger proposal has not been set. The Company has
the same Board and advisor as CMET.
Basis of consolidation. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the
accounts of TCI and controlled subsidiaries and partnerships. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Accounting estimates. In the preparation of the Consolidated Financial
Statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles it was
necessary for 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 Consolidated Financial Statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expense for the year then ended. Actual
results could differ from these estimates.
Interest recognition on notes receivable. It is the Company's policy to
cease recognizing interest income on notes receivable that have been
delinquent for 60 days or more. In addition, accrued but unpaid interest
income is only recognized to the extent that the net realizable value of the
underlying collateral exceeds the carrying value of the receivable.
Allowance for estimated losses. Valuation allowances are provided for
estimated losses on notes receivable considered to be impaired. Impairment is
considered to exist when it is probable that all amounts due under the terms
of the note will not be collected. Valuation allowances are provided for
estimated losses on notes
35

TRANSCONTINENTAL REALTY INVESTORS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
receivable to the extent that the Company's investment in the note exceeds the
Company's estimate of fair value of the collateral securing such note.
Real estate held for investment and depreciation. Real estate held for
investment is carried at cost. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
121 ("SFAS No. 121") requires that a property be considered impaired, if the
sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest
charges) is less than the carrying amount of the property. If impairment
exists, an impairment loss is recognized, by a charge against earnings, equal
to the amount by which the carrying amount of the property exceeds the fair
value of the property. If impairment of a property is recognized, the carrying
amount of the property is reduced by the amount of the impairment, and a new
cost for the property is established. Such new cost is depreciated over the
property's remaining useful life. Depreciation is provided by the straight-
line method over estimated useful lives, which range from 1 to 40 years.
Real estate held for sale. Foreclosed real estate is initially recorded at
new cost, defined as the lower of original cost or fair value minus estimated
costs of sale. SFAS No. 121 also requires that properties held for sale be
reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs of sale. If
a reduction in a held for sale property's carrying amount to fair value less
costs of sale is required, a provision for loss is recognized by a charge
against earnings. Subsequent revisions, either upward or downward, to a held
for sale property's estimated fair value less costs of sale is recorded as an
adjustment to the property's carrying amount, but not in excess of the
property's carrying amount when originally classified as held for sale. A
corresponding charge against or credit to earnings is recognized. Properties
held for sale are not depreciated.
Present value discounts. The Company provides for present value discounts on
notes receivable or payable that have interest rates that differ substantially
from prevailing market rates and amortizes such discounts by the interest
method over the lives of the related notes. The factors considered in
determining a market rate for notes receivable include the borrower's credit
standing, nature of the collateral and payment terms of the note.
Revenue recognition on the sale of real estate. Sales of real estate are
recognized when and to the extent permitted by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate" ("SFAS No.
66"). Until the requirements of SFAS No. 66 for full profit recognition have
been met, transactions are accounted for using either the deposit, the
installment, the cost recovery or the financing method, whichever is
appropriate.
Investment in noncontrolled partnerships and equity investees. The Company
uses the equity method to account for investments in partnerships which it
does not control and for its investment in the shares of common stock of
Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc., ("IORI"). Under the equity method,
the Company's initial investment, recorded at cost, is increased by the
Company's proportionate share of the investee's operating income and
additional advances and decreased by its proportionate share of the investee's
operating losses and distributions received.
Operating segments. Management has determined that the Company's reportable
operating segments are those that are based on the Company's method of
internal reporting, which disaggregates its operations by type of real estate.
Fair value of financial instruments. The Company used the following
assumptions in estimating the fair value of its notes receivable, marketable
equity securities and notes payable. For performing notes receivable, the fair
value was estimated by discounting future cash flows using current interest
rates for similar loans. For nonperforming notes receivable, the estimated
fair value of the Company's interest in the collateral property was
36
<PAGE>
TRANSCONTINENTAL REALTY INVESTORS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
used. For marketable equity securities, fair value was based on the year end
closing market price of the security. For notes payable, the fair value was
estimated using current rates for mortgages with similar terms and maturities.
Cash equivalents. For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows,
the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Earnings per share. Income (loss) per share is presented in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share."
Income (loss) per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding during each year.

The Company does not recognize interest income on nonperforming notes
receivable. For the years 1998, 1997 and 1996, unrecognized interest income on
nonperforming notes totaled $175,000, $257,000 and $424,000, respectively.
Performing notes receivable at December 31, 1998, mature from 1999 through
2004 with interest rates ranging from 8.75% to 12.0% per annum, with a
weighted average rate of 12.0%. Discounts were based on imputed interest rates
at the time of origination. Notes receivable are generally nonrecourse and are
generally collateralized by real estate. Scheduled principal maturities of
$930,000 are due in 1999.
In 1998, $2.9 million was collected in settlement of four mortgage notes and
$49,000 in principal payments were received.
In February 1994, the Company provided $6.7 million of purchase money
financing in conjunction with the sale of 1,406 acres of land in sixteen
residential and commercial subdivisions in Maumelle, Arkansas secured by a
first mortgage on the properties sold. The borrower did not make the scheduled
February 1995 principal and interest payments. In September 1995, the Company
reached a settlement with the borrower that provided for, among other things,
the payment by the borrower of $2.5 million in cash and the acceptance of a
new $1.4 million note secured by 36.3 acres of commercial land. Such note
matured in January 1996. In April 1998, the Company received $2.1 million in
full settlement of its note and accrued but unpaid interest. The original sale
had been recorded under the cost recovery method with the gain being deferred
until the note receivable was collected. Accordingly, the previously deferred
gain of $2.1 million was recognized on collection of the note.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
At December 31, 1997, the Company held a wraparound mortgage note with a
principal balance of $2.5 million, secured by a K-Mart in Cary, North
Carolina. In February 1998, the Company was informed that the first lien
mortgage in the amount of $2.0 million was in default. To protect its
interest, the Company foreclosed on the property in August 1998 and refinanced
the first lien mortgage in the amount of $2.0 million, paying $265,000 in cash
to complete the refinancing. No loss was recognized on the foreclosure as the
fair value of the property exceeded the carrying value of the note receivable.
See NOTE 6. "NOTES AND INTEREST PAYABLE."
In July 1998, a mortgage note receivable which had been written off in a
prior year, was collected. A gain of $671,000 was recognized.
In August 1998, a mortgage note receivable with a principal balance of $2.0
million and a carrying value of $207,000, secured by a second lien on a hotel
in Lake Charles, Louisiana became delinquent. To protect its interest, the
Company purchased the first lien mortgage for $149,000. Foreclosure
proceedings have commenced and title to the property is expected to be
received in the second quarter of 1999. No loss is expected to be incurred on
foreclosure, as the estimated fair value of the property exceeds the carrying
value of the mortgage notes.
In 1997, the Company accepted discounted payoffs totaling $4.9 million in
settlement of two mortgage notes receivable with a combined principal balance
of $5.0 million. The Company recognized no loss on the note settlements in
excess of the reserves previously established.

NOTE 10. ADVISORY AGREEMENT
Basic Capital Management, Inc. ("BCM" or the "Advisor") has served as
advisor to the Company since March 28, 1989. BCM is a company owned by a trust
for the benefit of the children of Gene E. Phillips. Mr. Phillips served as a
Director of the Company until December 31, 1992, as a director of BCM until
December 22, 1989 and as Chief Executive Officer of BCM until September 1,
1992. Mr. Phillips serves as a representative of his children's trust which
owns BCM and, in such capacity, has substantial contact with the management of
BCM and input with respect to its performance of advisory services to the
Company.
At the annual meeting of stockholders held on May 8, 1997, stockholders
approved the renewal of the Advisory Agreement with BCM through the next
annual meeting of stockholders. Subsequent renewals of the Advisory Agreement
with BCM do not require the approval of stockholders but do require the
approval of the Board of Directors.
Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor is required to formulate and
submit annually for approval by the Board of Directors a budget and business
plan containing a twelve-month forecast of operations and cash flow, a general
plan for asset sales and purchases, lending, foreclosure and borrowing
activity and other investments. The Advisor is required to report quarterly to
the Board of Directors on the Company's performance against the business plan.
In addition, all transactions or investments require prior approval by the
Board of Directors unless they are explicitly provided for in the approved
business plan or are made pursuant to authority expressly delegated to the
Advisor by the Board of Directors. The Advisory Agreement also requires prior
approval of the Board of Directors for the retention of all consultants and
third party professionals, other than legal counsel.
The Advisory Agreement provides for BCM to be responsible for the day-to-day
operations of the Company and to receive an advisory fee comprised of a gross
asset fee of .0625% per month (.75% per annum) of the average of the gross
asset value (total assets less allowance for amortization, depreciation or
depletion and valuation reserves) and an annual net income fee equal to 7.5%
of net income.
The Advisory Agreement also provides for BCM to receive an annual incentive
sales fee. BCM or an affiliate of BCM is to receive an acquisition commission
for supervising the purchase or long-term lease of real estate. BCM or an
affiliate of BCM is to receive a mortgage or loan acquisition fee with respect
to the purchase of any existing mortgage loan by the Company. BCM or an
affiliate of BCM is also to receive a mortgage brokerage and equity
refinancing fee for obtaining loans to or refinancing on the Company's
properties. BCM also receives reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by it
in the performance of advisory services to the Company.

TRANSCONTINENTAL REALTY INVESTORS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
The Advisory Agreement requires BCM or any affiliate of BCM to pay to the
Company one-half of any compensation received from third parties with respect
to the origination, placement or brokerage of any loan made by the Company.
Under the Advisory Agreement, all or a portion of the annual advisory fee
must be refunded by the Advisor if the Operating Expenses of the Company (as
defined in the Advisory Agreement) exceed certain limits specified in the
Advisory Agreement. The effect of this limitation was to require that BCM
refund $664,000, $206,000 and $87,000 of the annual advisory fee for 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively.
Additionally, if management were to request that BCM render services to the
Company other than those required by the Advisory Agreement, BCM or an
affiliate of BCM is separately compensated for such additional services on
terms to be agreed upon from time to time. As discussed in NOTE 11. "PROPERTY
MANAGEMENT," the Company has hired Carmel Realty Services, Ltd. ("Carmel,
Ltd."), an affiliate of BCM, to perform property management for the Company's
properties and as discussed in NOTE 12.
"REAL ESTATE BROKERAGE," has engaged, on a non-exclusive basis, Carmel Realty,
Inc. ("Carmel Realty"), also an affiliate of BCM, to provide brokerage
services for the Company.
NOTE 11. PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
Carmel, Ltd. provides property management services for a fee of 5% or less
of the monthly gross rents collected on the properties under its management.
Carmel, Ltd. subcontracts with other entities for property-level management
services at various rates. The general partner of Carmel, Ltd. is BCM. The
limited partners of Carmel, Ltd. are (1) First Equity Properties, Inc. ("First
Equity"), which is 50% owned by a subsidiary of BCM, (2) Gene E. Phillips and
(3) a trust for the benefit of the children of Mr. Phillips. Carmel, Ltd.

NOTE 14. INCOME TAXES
For the years 1998, 1997 and 1996, the Company has elected and qualified to
be treated as a REIT, as defined in Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and as such, will not be taxed
for federal income tax purposes on that portion of its taxable income which is
distributed to stockholders, provided that at least 95% of its REIT taxable
income, plus 95% of its taxable income from foreclosure property as defined in
Section 857 of the Code, is distributed. See NOTE 8. "DIVIDENDS."
The Company had a loss for federal income tax purposes (after utilization of
operating loss carryforwards) in 1998, 1997 and 1996; therefore, the Company
recorded no provision for income taxes. The Company's tax basis in its net
assets differs from the amount at which its net assets are reported for
financial statement purposes, principally due to the accounting for gains and
losses on property sales, the difference in the allowance for estimated
losses, depreciation on owned properties and investments in joint venture
partnerships. At December 31, 1998, the Company's tax basis in its net assets
exceeded their basis for financial statement purposes by $16.4 million. As a
result, aggregate future income for income tax purposes will be less than such
amount for financial statement purposes, and the Company would be able to
maintain its REIT status without distributing 95% of its financial statement
income. Additionally, at December 31, 1998, the Company had tax net operating
loss carryforwards of $60.4 million expiring through the year 2011.
As a result of the Company's election to be treated as a REIT for income tax
purposes and of its intention to distribute its taxable income, if any, in
future years, no deferred tax asset, liability or valuation allowance was
recorded.
NOTE 15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Olive Litigation. In February 1990, the Company, together with CMET, IORI
and National Income Realty Trust, three real estate entities with, at the
time, the same officers, directors or trustees and advisor as the Company,
entered into a settlement of a class and derivative action entitled Olive et
al. v. National Income Realty Trust et al., relating to the operation and
management of each of such entities. On April 23, 1990, the Court granted
final approval of the terms of the settlement.
On May 4, 1994, the parties entered into a Modification of Stipulation of
Settlement dated April 27, 1994 (the "Olive Modification") that settled
subsequent claims of breaches of the settlement that were asserted by the
plaintiffs and modified certain provisions of the April 1990 settlement. The
Olive Modification was preliminarily approved by the Court on July 1, 1994 and
final Court approval was entered on December 12, 1994. The effective date of
the Olive Modification was January 11, 1995.
The Court retained jurisdiction to enforce the Olive Modification, and
during August and September 1996, the Court held evidentiary hearings to
assess compliance with the terms of the Olive Modification by the various
parties. The Court issued no ruling or order with respect to the matters
addressed at the hearings.
Separately, in 1996, legal counsel for the plaintiffs notified the Company's
Board of Directors that he intended to assert that certain actions taken by
the Board of Directors breached the terms of the Olive Modification. On
January 27, 1997, the parties entered into an Amendment to the Olive
Modification effective January 9, 1997 (the "Olive Amendment"), which was
submitted to the Court for approval on January 29, 1997. The Olive Amendment
provides for the settlement of all matters raised at the evidentiary hearings
and by plaintiffs' counsel in his notices to the Company's Board of Directors.
On May 2, 1997, a hearing was held by the Court to consider approval of the
Olive Amendment. As a result of the hearing, the parties entered into a
revised Olive Amendment. The Court issued an order approving the Olive
Amendment on July 3, 1997.
The Olive Amendment provides for the addition of four new unaffiliated
members to the Company's Board of Directors and sets forth new requirements
for the approval of any transactions with certain affiliates until April 28,
1999. In addition, the Company, CMET, IORI and their stockholders released the
defendants from any claims
46
<PAGE>
TRANSCONTINENTAL REALTY INVESTORS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
relating to the plaintiffs' allegations and matters which were the subject of
the evidentiary hearings. The plaintiffs' allegations of any breaches of the
Olive Modification shall be settled by mutual agreement of the parties or,
lacking such agreement, by an arbitration proceeding.
Under the Olive Amendment, all shares of the Company owned by Gene E.
Phillips or any of his affiliates shall be voted at all stockholder meetings
of the Company held until April 28, 1999 in favor of all new members of the
Company's Board of Directors added under the Olive Amendment. The Olive
Amendment also requires that, until April 28, 1999, all shares of the Company
owned by Mr. Phillips or his affiliates in excess of forty percent (40%) of
the Company's outstanding shares shall be voted in proportion to the votes
cast by all non-affiliated stockholders of the Company.
In accordance with the Olive Amendment, Richard W. Douglas, Larry E. Harley
and R. Douglas Leonhard were added to the Company's Board of Directors in
January 1998 and Murray Shaw was added to the Company's Board of Directors in
February 1998.
Other Litigation. The Company is also involved in various other lawsuits
arising in the ordinary course of business. Management of the Company is of
the opinion that the outcome of these lawsuits will have no material impact on
the Company's financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
Litigation settlement. In October 1996, the Company received $1.5 million
from the defendants in a lawsuit brought by the Company against the former
owners of an office building in New Jersey and their agents. The Company made
a loan secured by the building in 1987 and filed a foreclosure action which
was subsequently amended in 1990, to include claims of negligent
misrepresentation against the borrowers, their legal counsel, architect and
engineers.
NOTE 16. OPERATING SEGMENTS
Significant differences among the accounting policies of the segments as
compared to the Company's consolidated financial statements principally
involve the calculation and allocation of administrative expenses. Management
evaluates the performance of the operating segments and allocates resources to
them based on net operating income, and cash flow. The Company based
reconciliation of expenses that are not reflected in the segments is $4.8
million of administrative expenses. There are no intersegment revenues and
expenses and the Company conducts all of its business in the United States.
The Company has not disclosed prior years' operating segment data on a
comparative basis, because management found it impractical to obtain the
necessary data.
The table below presents information about the reported operating income of
the Company for 1998. Asset information by operating segment is also presented
below.

Under the securities laws of the United States, the Directors, executive
officers, and any persons holding more than ten percent of the Company's
shares of Common Stock are required to report their share ownership and any
changes in that ownership to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission"). Specific due dates for these reports have been established and
the Company is required to report any failure to file by these dates during
1998. All of these filing requirements were satisfied by the Company's
Directors and executive officers and ten percent holders. In making these
statements, the Company has relied on the written representations of its
incumbent Directors and executive officers and its ten percent holders and
copies of the reports that they have filed with the Commission.

<PAGE>
The Advisor
Although the Board of Directors is directly responsible for managing the
affairs of the Company and for setting the policies which guide it, the day-
to-day operations of the Company are performed by a contractual advisor under
the supervision of the Board of Directors. The duties of the advisor include,
among other things, locating, investigating, evaluating and recommending real
estate and mortgage note investment and sales opportunities as well as
financing and refinancing sources. The advisor also serves as a consultant to
the Board of Directors in connection with the business plan and investment
decisions made by the Board of Directors.
BCM has served as the Company's advisor since March 1989. BCM is a
corporation of which Messrs. Paulson, Blaha, Endendyk, Holland and Johnson
serve as executive officers. BCM is a company owned by a trust for the benefit
of the children of Gene E. Phillips. Mr. Phillips served as a director of BCM
until December 22, 1989, and as Chief Executive Officer of BCM until September
1, 1992. Mr. Phillips serves as a representative of his children's trust which
owns BCM and, in such capacity, has substantial contact with the management of
BCM and input with respect to its performance of advisory services to the
Company.
At the annual meeting of stockholders held on May 8, 1997, stockholders
approved the renewal of the Advisory Agreement with BCM through the next
annual meeting of stockholders. Subsequent renewals of the Advisory Agreement
with BCM do not require the approval of stockholders but do require the
approval of the Board of Directors.
Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor is required to formulate and
submit annually for approval by the Board of Directors a budget and business
plan containing a twelve-month forecast of operations and cash flow, a general
plan for asset sales or purchases, lending, foreclosure and borrowing
activity, and other investments, and the Advisor is required to report
quarterly to the Board of Directors on the Company's performance against the
business plan. In addition, all transactions or investments require prior
approval by the Board of Directors unless they are explicitly provided for in
the approved business plan or are made pursuant to authority expressly
delegated to the Advisor by the Board of Directors.
The Advisory Agreement also requires prior approval of the Board of
Directors for the retention of all consultants and third party professionals,
other than legal counsel. The Advisory Agreement provides that the Advisor
shall be deemed to be in a fiduciary relationship to the stockholders;
contains a broad standard governing the Advisor's liability for losses by the
Company; and contains guidelines for the Advisor's allocation of investment
opportunities as among itself, the Company and other entities it advises.
The Advisory Agreement provides for BCM to be responsible for the day-to-day
operations of the Company and to receive an advisory fee comprised of a gross
asset fee of .0625% per month (.75% per annum) of the average of the gross
asset value (total assets less allowance for amortization, depreciation or
depletion and valuation reserves) and an annual net income fee equal to 7.5%
of the Company's net income.
The Advisory Agreement also provides for BCM to receive an annual incentive
sales fee equal to 10% of the amount, if any, by which the aggregate sales
consideration for all real estate sold by the Company during such fiscal year
exceeds the sum of: (1) the cost of each such property as originally recorded
in the Company's books for tax purposes (without deduction for depreciation,
amortization or reserve for losses), (2) capital improvements made to such
assets during the period owned, and (3) all closing costs, (including real
estate commissions) incurred in the sale of such real estate; provided,
however, no incentive fee shall be paid unless (a) such real estate sold in
such fiscal year, in the aggregate, has produced an 8% simple annual return on
the net investment including capital improvements, calculated over the holding
period before depreciation and inclusive of operating income and sales
consideration and (b) the aggregate net operating income from all real estate
owned for each of the prior and current fiscal years shall be at least 5%
higher in the current fiscal year than in the prior fiscal year.
62
<PAGE>
Additionally, pursuant to the Advisory Agreement BCM or an affiliate of BCM
is to receive an acquisition commission for supervising the acquisition,
purchase or long-term lease of real estate equal to the lesser of (1) up to 1%
of the cost of acquisition, inclusive of commissions, if any, paid to
nonaffiliated brokers or (2) the compensation customarily charged in arm's-
length transactions by others rendering similar property acquisition services
as an ongoing public activity in the same geographical location and for
comparable property, provided that the aggregate purchase price of each
property (including acquisition fees and real estate brokerage commissions)
may not exceed such property's appraised value at acquisition.
The Advisory Agreement requires BCM or any affiliate of BCM to pay to the
Company, one-half of any compensation received from third parties with respect
to the origination, placement or brokerage of any loan made by the Company;
provided, however, that the compensation retained by BCM or any affiliate of
BCM shall not exceed the lesser of (1) 2% of the amount of the loan commitment
or (2) a loan brokerage and commitment fee which is reasonable and fair under
the circumstances.
The Advisory Agreement also provides that BCM or an affiliate of BCM is to
receive a mortgage or loan acquisition fee with respect to the acquisition or
purchase of any existing mortgage loan by the Company equal to the lesser of
(1) 1% of the amount of the loan purchased or (2) a brokerage or commitment
fee which is reasonable and fair under the circumstances. Such fee will not be
paid in connection with the origination or funding of any mortgage loan by the
Company.
Under the Advisory Agreement, BCM or an affiliate of BCM is also to receive
a mortgage brokerage and equity refinancing fee for obtaining loans or
refinancing on properties equal to the lesser of (1) 1% of the amount of the
loan or the amount refinanced or (2) a brokerage or refinancing fee which is
reasonable and fair under the circumstances; provided, however, that no such
fee shall be paid on loans from BCM or an affiliate of BCM without the
approval of the Company's Board of Directors. No fee shall be paid on loan
extensions.
Under the Advisory Agreement, BCM receives reimbursement of certain expenses
incurred by it in the performance of advisory services.
Under the Advisory Agreement, all or a portion of the annual advisory fee
must be refunded by the Advisor if the Operating Expenses of the Company (as
defined in the Advisory Agreement) exceed certain limits specified in the
Advisory Agreement based on the book value, net asset value and net income of
the Company during such fiscal year. The effect of the limitation was to
require that BCM refund $664,000 of the annual advisory fee for 1998.
Additionally, if management were to request that BCM render services to the
Company other than those required by the Advisory Agreement, BCM or an
affiliate of BCM is separately compensated for such additional services on
terms to be agreed upon from time to time. As discussed below, under "Property
Management", the Company has hired Carmel Realty Services, Ltd. ("Carmel,
Ltd."), an affiliate of BCM, to provide property management services for the
Company's properties. Also as discussed below, under "Real Estate Brokerage"
the Company has engaged, on a non-exclusive basis, Carmel Realty, also an
affiliate of BCM, to perform brokerage services for the Company.
BCM may only assign the Advisory Agreement with the prior consent of the
Company.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The Company has no employees, payroll or benefit plans and pays no
compensation to its executive officers. The executive officers of the Company,
who are also officers or employees of BCM, the Company's Advisor, are
compensated by the Advisor. Such executive officers perform a variety of
services for the Advisor and the amount of their compensation is determined
solely by the Advisor. BCM does not allocate the cash compensation of its
officers among the various entities for which it serves as advisor. See ITEM
10. "DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND ADVISOR OF THE REGISTRANT--The Advisor"
for a more detailed discussion of the compensation payable to BCM by the
Company.
The only remuneration paid by the Company is to the Directors who are not
officers or directors of BCM or its affiliated companies. The Independent
Directors (1) review the investment policies of the Company to determine that
they are in the best interest of stockholders, (2) review the advisory
contract, (3) supervise the performance of the advisor and review the
reasonableness of the compensation paid to the advisor in terms of the nature
and quality of services performed, (4) review the reasonableness of the total
fees and expenses of the Company and (5) select, when necessary, a qualified
independent real estate appraiser to appraise properties purchased.
Each Independent Director receives compensation in the amount of $15,000 per
year, plus reimbursement for expenses and the Chairman of the Board receives
an additional $1,500 per year for serving in such position. In addition, each
Independent Director receives an additional fee of $1,000 per day for any
special services rendered by him to the Company outside of his ordinary duties
as Director, plus reimbursement of expenses.
During 1998, $116,000 was paid to the Independent Directors in total
Directors' fees for all services, including the annual fee for service during
the period January 1, 1998 through December 31, 1998, and 1998 special service
fees as follows: Richard W. Douglas, $15,000; Larry E. Harley, $15,000; R.
Douglas Leonhard, $15,000; Murray Shaw, $13,750; Ted P. Stokely, $16,500;
Edward L. Tixier, $3,750; Martin L. White, $15,000; and Edward G. Zampa,
$22,000.

Performance Graph
The following performance graph compares the cumulative total stockholder
return on the Company's shares of Common Stock with the Standard & Poor's 500
Stock Index ("S&P 500 Index") and the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts, Inc. Hybrid REIT Total Return Index ("REIT Index"). The
comparison assumes that $100 was invested on December 31, 1993 in the Company's
shares of Common Stock and in each of the indices and further assumes the
reinvestment of all distributions. Past performance is not necessarily an
indicator of future performance.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Certain Business Relationships
In February 1989, the Board of Directors voted to retain BCM as the
Company's advisor. See ITEM 10. "DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND ADVISOR TO
THE REGISTRANT--The Advisor." BCM is a corporation of which Messrs. Paulson,
Blaha, Endendyk, Holland and Johnson serve as executive officers. Gene E.
Phillips served as a director of BCM until December 22, 1989 and as Chief
Executive Officer of BCM until September 1, 1992. BCM is owned by a trust for
the benefit of the children of Mr. Phillips. Mr. Phillips serves as a
representative of his children's trust which owns BCM and, in such capacity,
has substantial contact with the management of BCM and input with respect to
BCM's performance of advisory services to the Company.
Since February 1, 1991, affiliates of BCM have provided property management
services to the Company. Currently, Carmel, Ltd. provides such property
management services. The general partner of Carmel, Ltd. is BCM. The limited
partners of Carmel, Ltd. are (1) First Equity, which is 50% owned by a
subsidiary of BCM, (2) Mr. Phillips and (3) a trust for the benefit of the
children of Mr. Phillips. Carmel, Ltd. subcontracts the property-level
management and leasing of 29 of the Company's commercial properties and its
four hotels and the commercial properties owned by a real estate partnership
in which the Company and IORI are partners to Carmel Realty, which is a
company owned by First Equity.
Prior to December 1, 1992, affiliates of BCM provided brokerage services for
the Company and received brokerage commissions in accordance with the advisory
agreement. Since December 1, 1992, the Company has engaged, on a non-exclusive
basis, Carmel Realty to perform brokerage services. Carmel Realty is a company
owned by First Equity.
The Directors and officers of the Company also serve as trustees or
directors and officers of CMET and IORI. The Directors owe fiduciary duties to
such entities as well as to the Company under applicable law. CMET and IORI
have the same relationship with BCM as the Company. The Company owned
approximately 22.7% of the outstanding shares of common stock of IORI at
December 31, 1998. BCM also serves as advisor to ART. Messrs. Paulson, Blaha,
Endendyk, Holland and Johnson serve as executive officers of ART and NMC. NMC,
a wholly-owned subsidiary of ART, is the general partner of NRLP and NOLP. BCM
performs certain administrative functions for NRLP and NOLP on a cost-
reimbursement basis.
From April 1992 to December 31, 1992, Mr. Stokely was employed as a paid
Consultant and since January 1, 1993 as a part-time unpaid Consultant for
Eldercare, a nonprofit corporation engaged in the acquisition of low income
and elderly housing. Eldercare has a revolving loan commitment from Syntek
West, Inc., of which Mr. Phillips is the sole shareholder. Eldercare filed for
bankruptcy protection in July 1993, and was dismissed from bankruptcy in
October 1994. Eldercare again filed for bankruptcy protection in May 1995, and
was reorganized in bankruptcy in February 1996, and has since paid all debts
as directed by the Bankruptcy Court.
Related Party Transactions
Historically, the Company has engaged in and may continue to engage in
business transactions, including real estate partnerships, with related
parties. Management believes that all of the related party transactions
represented the best investments available at the time and were at least as
advantageous to the Company as could have been obtained from unrelated third
parties.
As more fully described in ITEM 2. "PROPERTIES--Real Estate," the Company is
a partner with IORI in the Tri-City Limited Partnership and Nakash Income
Associates. The Company owns 345,728 shares of the common stock of IORI, an
approximate 22.7% interest.
In 1998, the Company paid BCM and its affiliates $4.1 million in advisory
and net income fees, $341,000 in mortgage brokerage and equity refinancing
fees, $3.5 million in property acquisition fees, $767,000 in real estate
brokerage commissions and $2.8 million in property and construction management
fees and leasing
68
<PAGE>
commissions, net of property management fees paid to subcontractors, other
than Carmel Realty. In addition, as provided in the Advisory Agreement, BCM
received cost reimbursements of $1.1 million in 1998.
Restrictions on Related Party Transactions
Article FOURTEENTH of the Company's Articles of Incorporation provides that
the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, contract or engage in any
transaction with (1) any director, officer or employee of the Company, (2) any
director, officer or employee of the advisor, (3) the advisor or (4) any
affiliate or associate (as such terms are defined in Rule 12b-2 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of any of the aforementioned
persons, unless (a) the material facts as to the relationship among or
financial interest of the relevant individuals or persons and as to the
contract or transaction are disclosed to or are known by the Board of
Directors or the appropriate committee thereof and (b) the Board of Directors
or committee thereof determines that such contract or transaction is fair to
the Company and simultaneously authorizes or ratifies such contract or
transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of independent directors of
the Company entitled to vote thereon.
Pursuant to the terms of the Modification of Stipulation of Settlement (the
"Olive Modification") in the Olive Litigation, as more fully discussed in ITEM
3. "LEGAL PROCEEDINGS--Olive Litigation," which became effective on January
11, 1995, certain related party transactions which the Company may enter into
prior to April 28, 1999, require the unanimous approval of the Board of
Directors. In addition, such related party transactions are to be discouraged
and may only be entered into in exceptional circumstances and after a
determination by the Board of Directors that the transaction is in the best
interests of the Company and that no other opportunity exists that is as good
as the opportunity presented by such transaction.
The Olive Modification requirements for related party transactions do not
apply to direct contractual agreements for services between the Company and
the Advisor or one of its affiliates (including the Advisory Agreement, the
Brokerage Agreement and the property management contracts). These agreements,
pursuant to the specific terms of the Olive Modification, require the prior
approval by two-thirds of the Directors of the Company, and if required,
approval by a majority of stockholders. The Olive Modification requirements
for related party transactions also do not apply to joint ventures between or
among the Company and CMET, IORI or NIRT or any of their affiliates or
subsidiaries and a third party having no prior or intended future business or
financial relationship with Gene E. Phillips, William S. Friedman, the
Advisor, or any affiliate of such parties. Such joint ventures may be entered
into on the affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors of the Company.
An Amendment to the Olive Modification (the "Olive Amendment") was approved
by the Court on July 3, 1997. The Olive Amendment requires that additional
requirements be met for certain transactions with affiliates ("Affiliated
Transaction") prior to April 28, 1999. Independent counsel to the Board must
review, advise and report to the Board of Directors on any Affiliated
Transaction prior to its consideration and approval by the Board of Directors
and the Board of Directors must unanimously approve the transaction after
receiving independent counsel's advice and report. In addition, a notice must
be given to the plaintiffs' counsel at least 10 days prior to the closing of
the transaction and during such 10 day period plaintiffs' counsel is entitled
to seek a Court order prohibiting consummation of the transaction. Neither BCM
nor any of its affiliates may receive any fees or commissions in connection
with an Affiliated Transaction.
