Item 1.       BUSINESS.

Introduction.

              The Registrant is an unincorporated Ohio real estate investment
trust under a Declaration of Trust dated April 28, 1971 and has elected to be
taxed as a real estate investment trust, as that term is used in Sections
856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code.

              Although the Registrant's Declaration of Trust permits it to make
a broad range of mortgage loans and other real estate investments, the
Registrant historically has specialized in mortgage financing as its investment
vehicle. In particular, such mortgage financing has taken the form of
refinancing existing income-producing commercial, industrial and multi-unit
residential real property by supplementing or replacing existing financing. The
primary refinancing technique which the Registrant in the past has employed is
wrap-around mortgage lending, whereby the borrower is offered a total mortgage
loan (the wrap-around loan), the principal amount of which loan equals the
balance outstanding on an existing prior mortgage loan on the borrower's
property, plus an additional amount supplied by the Registrant. The Registrant
also pursues other refinancing techniques, including, but not limited to, first
or junior mortgages which may be short-term, intermediate-term or long-term and
which may or may not be self-liquidating. Refinancing can occur at various
stages in the life of an eligible property, beginning with the achievement of
acceptable occupancy and cash flow and recurring as existing mortgage balances
are reduced or income or other positive factors have increased the property
value. The Registrant made one mortgage loan during the fiscal year ended
January 31, 1995.

              In addition to mortgage investments, the Trustees in 1990
authorized the Registrant to pursue equity investments in shopping center,
multi-family residential, office building, industrial and warehouse properties.
Accordingly, the Registrant's investment advisor, at the direction of the
Trustees, is pursuing alternative avenues of investment.

Wrap-Around Financing and Other Mortgage Loans.

              In wrap-around financing, the borrower is offered a new total
mortgage loan (the wrap-around loan), the principal amount of which equals the
balance outstanding on an existing prior mortgage loan on the borrower's
property plus an additional amount supplied by the Registrant. Typically, a
wrap-around loan


                                       -3-
<PAGE>   4

made by the Registrant is subordinate to the lien of the existing prior mortgage
loan that remains on the property. The Registrant agrees with the borrower to
make the principal and interest payments to the holder of the existing prior
mortgage, but only to the extent payments are received from the borrower and no
other default exists. This method of mortgage financing is desirable for a
borrower in those cases in which an existing mortgage has an interest rate below
presently prevailing interest rates or in which replacing an existing mortgage
is either prohibited entirely or involves a pre-payment penalty. The decline in
recent years in prevailing interest rates coupled with the low cost of
traditional refinancing has decreased significantly the desirability of
wrap-around financing as a form of refinancing.

              In certain cases, the Registrant has provided refinancing in the
form of junior mortgage loans. Such mortgages are substantially similar to the
Registrant's wrap-around mortgages except that the stated principal amount of
the mortgage is only the amount advanced by the Registrant. The Registrant still
requires the borrower to remit to the Registrant an amount equal to the
principal and interest payments due on the prior mortgage loan in addition to
the payments required on the junior mortgage.

              In general, the income-producing properties which secure the
Registrant's loans tend to be relatively large. As of January 31, 1995, the
Registrant had investments in two wrap-around loans, one first mortgage loan
and one junior mortgage loan. The Registrant's original cash investments in
these loans ranged from $2,050,000 to approximately $9,000,000, with the average
being approximately $5,280,000.

              The following table sets forth the geographic distribution of the
Registrant's loans as of January 31, 1995:

The Florida loan is secured by a mortgage on two properties located in Florida.

              A partnership in which an affiliate of Alan M. Krause, a Trustee
and the Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer of the Registrant, is general
partner accounted for 31.1% of the Registrant's investment portfolio as of
January 31, 1995. See "Properties - Toledo, Ohio". In general, the Registrant is
not dependent upon a single borrower or a very few borrowers for making future
loans.

                                       -4-
<PAGE>   5

              As of January 31, 1995, the Registrant's loans receivable totalled
$35,509,779, of which $29,677,194 represented loans secured by wrap-around
mortgages. Loans payable underlying these wrap-around mortgages totalled
$14,096,986. The Registrant's net investment in its loans receivable at
January 31, 1995 totalled $21,412,793. Assuming that all of the other
mortgages remain in existence until their respective scheduled maturity dates, a
total of $23,940,000 of these loans receivable would be payable to the
Registrant in lump sum "balloon" payments at such maturities. The ability of a
borrower to satisfy the obligation to pay the lump sum at maturity applicable to
its property may be dependent upon the borrower's ability to obtain refinancing.
For a detailed analysis of these totals and a description of the periodic
payment terms and maturity dates of the Registrant's loans receivable as of
January 31, 1995, see Note 9 of Notes to Financial Statements set forth on page
16 of the Registrant's 1995 Annual Report (Exhibit 13), which information is
incorporated herein by reference.

Equity Investments.

              In July 1992, the Registrant, through a wholly-owned corporate
subsidiary, took title in lieu of foreclosure to the leasehold estate in the
Chicago office building upon which the Registrant previously had mortgage loans.
At January 31, 1992, the Registrant's net investment in the Chicago office
building was approximately $11,261,900, net of senior mortgage loans of
approximately $942,000. The Registrant's investment was written down to
$7,260,000, based upon the report of an independent real estate appraisal firm,
with a corresponding charge to the Registrant's operations in the third quarter
of fiscal 1993. In the first quarter of fiscal year 1994, the Registrant,
through a wholly-owned corporate subsidiary, consummated the purchase of an 83%
interest in the underlying fee simple estate in the property for approximately
$897,000. Net book value for the Chicago office building, improvements and 
land as of January 31, 1995, was $8,650,257. While the Registrant presently is
operating the office building, its present intention is to seek a purchaser and
not to hold the building as a long-term investment.

      The Registrant currently has no other equity investments in real estate.
The Board of Trustees has authorized, and the Registrant's investment advisor is
exploring opportunities for, equity investments by the Registrant, as well as
mortgage loan opportunities, in shopping centers, multi-family residential,
hospitality and other types of properties.

Competition and Inflation.

              In connection with its investments, the Registrant competes
against banks, insurance companies, savings and loan associations, mortgage
bankers, pension funds and other lenders


                                       -5-
<PAGE>   6


and investors, including a number of other real estate investment trusts, many
of which are larger and have substantially greater financial resources than the
Registrant. The Registrant's primary competition in refinancing existing
income-producing properties is with the holder or holders of a property's
existing financing. The principal elements of competition include the amount,
maturity, interest rate, debt service charged and other terms of a refinancing,
and whether the personal liability of a borrower is required in addition to the
mortgage lien on the refinanced property.

              Wrap-around mortgage financing in certain instances provides a
lender with competitive advantages over the more traditional refinancing
techniques of a new first mortgage at prevailing interest rates or a second
mortgage. As compared with the more traditional refinancing technique of
replacing an existing mortgage with a new first mortgage in a larger amount at
the then-current interest rate, a property owner can sometimes save by
refinancing with a wrap-around mortgage where the interest rate of the existing
first mortgage falls substantially below presently prevailing interest rates.
This savings occurs when the stated rate of interest for the Registrant's
wrap-around mortgage is below the then-prevailing rate of interest for a first
mortgage on the same property. In recent years wrap-around mortgages have become
a less feasible method of refinancing in the face of lower prevailing interest
rates and the low cost of traditional refinancing.

              Second mortgages, another more traditional refinancing technique,
are generally for shorter periods than the Registrant's wrap-around mortgages,
which are usually coterminous with the senior financing. In addition, lenders
secured by second mortgages often require the personal liability of the borrower
in addition to the security of the mortgaged property, whereas generally the
Registrant looks solely to the mortgaged property. Additionally, existing
mortgage loans increasingly have prohibited any junior financing, thereby
precluding not only wrap-around mortgage loans, but all types of secondary
financing.

              In respect of equity investments, the Registrant will compete
against insurance companies, pension funds, other real estate investment trusts,
limited partnerships, private investors, owner-operators and numerous other
potential investors, many of which may have greater financial resources and more
experience than the Registrant. The Registrant's Chicago property has, and it is
expected that any additional rental properties acquired by the Registrant will
have, substantial competition from similar properties in the vicinity. To the
extent the Registrant has acquired or acquires commercial properties, the
success of the Registrant will depend, in part, upon the ability of its tenants
in competing with businesses similar to those conducted by the tenants and upon
other factors


                                       -6-
<PAGE>   7

which may affect the economic viability of the tenants.

              Generally, inflation affects the Registrant as it affects its
borrowers and the underlying real estate collateral. Although this type of
collateral traditionally has been able to sustain itself during periods of
inflation, there has been a significant down-turn in market values of real
property in the United States over the past few years. The Registrant is unable
to predict future real estate market conditions.

Advisory Agreement And Advisor.

              The Registrant has an Advisory Agreement with Mid-America ReaFund
Advisors, Inc. (the "Advisor") which provides for the Advisor's services as the
investment advisor and administrator of the day-to-day investment operations of
the Registrant and pursuant to which the Advisor is responsible for providing
the Registrant with a continuing and suitable investment program. Therefore, the
Registrant employs no persons on a full-time basis. The Registrant's Chairman
and President are the sole shareholders of the Advisor.

              The Advisory Agreement is renewable annually and can be terminated
upon 60 days' notice by the Registrant and 120 days' notice by the Advisor. The
Advisor receives, subject to certain limitations, an annual fee equal to 1% of
the average invested assets for the year (as defined in the Advisory Agreement)
and an annual incentive fee equal to 10% of the amount by which the net profits
(as defined in the Advisory Agreement) of the Registrant exceeds 8% of the
average net worth for the year, and 10% of any realized net capital gains of the
Registrant.

Lines Of Credit.

              The Registrant has an agreement with National City Bank (the
"Bank") providing for a secured revolving line of credit. The
loan agreement provides for borrowings at either the Bank's prime lending rate
or a fixed rate equal to 1.5% over the LIBOR then in effect throughout the term
of the loan agreement, which expires on July 31, 1996. Availability under the
line of credit will be $22,000,000 until August 1, 1995, and $10,000,000
thereafter. Among other provisions, the loan agreement provides for a borrowing
base equal to 83.3% of the Registrant's investments (as defined) and $3,000,000
of availability for working capital, with the remainder available for new
investments. The loan agreement also provides that the Registrant cannot permit
its net worth (including subordinated debt) to be less than $17,000,000 or its
total debt (excluding wrap-around mortgages) and senior indebtedness to exceed
300% and 225%, respectively, of its net worth. At January 31, 1995, the
Registrant had borrowed $11,810,000 under this line of credit.


                                       -7-
<PAGE>   8

              On March 16, 1993, the Registrant sold a $5,000,000 secured note
(the "Note") to Mr. Krause at par. The Note bears interest at the prime lending
rate of the Bank, and will mature on August 31, 1995, subject to extension for
up to one additional year in certain circumstances. The Note is secured by a
lien on the assets of the Registrant, which lien is subordinate to the prior
lien of the Bank. In connection with the closing of the sale of the Note, the 
Registrant's Trustees received the written opinion of an independent investment
banking firm that the terms of such sale were fair, from a financial point of 
view, to the other Shareholders of the Registrant. The proceeds of the sale of
the Note were used to reduce the outstanding indebtedness of the Registrant to
the Bank under its secured revolving line of credit.

Item 2.       PROPERTIES.

              The Registrant maintains its headquarters in leased facilities in
Cleveland, Ohio which it shares with the Advisor. The Registrant owns no real
property other than the Chicago office building. See "Business-Equity
Investments".

              The following is a detailed description of the property owned by
the Registrant as well as the properties underlying each of the Registrant's
material mortgage loans. All of the information set forth below in respect of
the Registrant's mortgage loans has been furnished by the respective borrowers.
Financial information concerning the Chicago office building as well as the
Registrant's mortgages, including any mortgage loans underlying the Registrant's
wrap-around mortgages, is outlined in Notes 2, 8 and 9, respectively, to Notes
to Financial Statements set forth on Pages 13, 15 and 16, respectively, of the
Registrant's 1995 Annual Report (Exhibit 13), which information hereby is
incorporated by reference.

      1.      CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - OFFICE BUILDING. This office building, known 
as The Carbon and Carbide Building, is located at 230 North Michigan Avenue in
downtown Chicago, and is a thirty-eight story steel frame, concrete and stone
structure situated on a long-term leasehold estate. The building has a total
rentable floor area of approximately 192,000 square feet and is approximately 63
years old. In the opinion of the Registrant's management, the building is
covered adequately by insurance.

              The general market for office leasing in downtown Chicago is very
competitive. According to the fourth quarter 1994 Building Owners and Managers
Association of Chicago

                                       -8-
<PAGE>   9


occupancy survey, the overall occupancy in the area where this building is
located, the Central Business District/East Loop, was 78.42%, a decrease of .45%
since the fourth quarter of 1993 and 1.18% since the fourth quarter of 1992.
Occupancy for Class C Buildings has increased to approximately 87.9%. A Class C
Building generally is described as an older building in need of some repair
and/or renovation.

              The following table sets forth the average occupancy rate and
average rent per square foot for this building as of December 31 for the years

              For federal income tax purposes, the Registrant's tax basis in the
building, improvements and land is $8,843,000 less accumulated depreciation on 
the building and improvements as of January 31, 1995 of $483,000. For federal 
income tax purposes, the Registrant depreciates the building using the straight
line method over a life of 40 years.

              The real estate tax rate is $205.22 per $1,000 of assessed 
valuation.  The current annual real estate taxes are $494,980.18.

      2.      TOLEDO, OHIO - OFFICE BUILDING.  This office building, known as 
The Fiberglas Tower, is located at 319 Madison Avenue, Toledo, Ohio, and is a 
thirty-story structure having a total


                                       -9-

rentable floor area of approximately 332,570 square feet. The building is owned
by Riverview Tower Limited Partnership, a limited partnership of which an
affiliate of Mr. Krause is a general partner. The building is 23 years old and 
was acquired by the borrower on July 31, 1985. In the opinion of the 
Registrant's management, the building is covered adequately by insurance.

              At January 31, 1995, the outstanding principal balance of the
Registrant's loan was $11,033,109 and interest accrued thereon at 8.60%.
This loan is payable in monthly installments of approximately $128,000 until
maturity thereof on December 31, 1996, at which time the entire principal sum
including unpaid interest will be due. In connection with the extension of such
loan maturity to December 31, 1996, the Borrower was required to make principal
payments of $1,350,000 and $850,000 in June 1994 and January 1995, respectively;
an additional principal prepayment of $850,000 is due in January 1996.

              The Owens-Corning Corporation ("Owens"), a manufacturer of
fiberglass products, occupies 100% of the building's office space under leases
dated May 1, 1967 and April 30, 1981, respectively and a lease amendment and
extension agreement dated June 4, 1994 (collectively, the "Owens Lease").
Pursuant to the Owens Lease and two additional agreements for basement storage
space, Owens leases the entire rentable floor area of the building at an annual
base rent of $2,261,000. The initial term of the Owens Lease expired on December
31, 1994; however, Owens and the borrower have negotiated an extension of such
lease until December 31, 1996 with two six-month renewal options. In October
1993, Owens announced that it would be relocating from the building to an as-yet
unbuilt facility. Such relocation, when it occurs, will impact directly the
borrower's ability to meet timely its loan obligations to the Registrant. In the
event that the borrower defaults in its obligations to the Registrant, the
Registrant may be faced with a write-down of this investment. The borrower is
unable to determine competitive conditions affecting office space which might
exist at the time Owens relocates from this building.

              The following table sets forth the average occupancy rate and
average rent per square foot as of December 31 for the years indicated:

      3.      FORT WORTH, TEXAS - OFFICE BUILDING. This facility is located on a
portion of the General Dynamics West Campus, Fort Worth, Texas, and consists of
a 44.3 acre site on which is located three buildings having a total rentable
floor area of approximately 550,500 square feet. The facility is owned by
Pacific Place Partners, LTD., a Texas limited partnership. The facility is
approximately five years old and was acquired by the borrower in November 1991.

              At January 31, 1995, the outstanding principal balance of the
Registrant's loan was $18,644,085 and interest accrued thereon at 10.4%.
This loan is payable in monthly installments of principal and interest of
approximately $625,000 until maturity thereof on October 31, 1996, at which time
the entire principal sum remaining unpaid will be due.

              General Dynamics Corporation ("General Dynamics"), a defense
contractor, leased the entire facility until March 1, 1993, at which time
General Dynamics assigned all of its right, title and interest in, to and under
the lease to Lockheed Corporation. However, General Dynamics remains liable for
all promises, covenants, conditions and agreements to be kept, made or performed
by Lockheed Corporation under the lease. The lease permits Lockheed Corporation
to use the facility for general business office purposes, including engineering
facilities, computer software development facilities and storage facilities
incidental to such uses. However, the property may not be used for chemical
laboratories. The term of the lease expires in November 1996. Annual rent for
the first lease year was approximately $11,500,000 and for each lease year
thereafter is approximately $7,500,000. The borrower is unable to determine
competitive conditions which might exist at the time the lease expires.

              For federal income tax purposes, the borrower's tax basis in the
property, which was acquired in a Section 1031 exchange, is $48,404,030, less
accumulated depreciation and amortization of deferred charges as of December 31,
1994 equal to $8,543,039. The borrower depreciates the three buildings using the
straight line method over lives of 15 years. Personal

                   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS




To the Shareholders and Trustees,
Realty ReFund Trust:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Realty ReFund Trust (an Ohio
unincorporated business trust) as of January 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of 
the three years in the period ended January 31, 1995. These financial 
statements and the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the 
Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 
financial statements and schedule based on our audits. The summarized financial
data contained in Note 11 are based on the financial statements of Riverview
Tower Limited Partnership and Pacific Place Partners, LTD. which were audited by
other auditors. Their reports have been furnished to us and our opinion, 
insofar as it relates to the data in Note 11, is based solely on the reports of
the other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain 
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of 
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence 
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit 
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant 
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial 
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis 
for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material 
respects, the financial position of Realty ReFund Trust as of January 31, 1995 
and 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the 
three years in the period ended January 31, 1995 in conformity with generally 
accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 
financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule listed in Item 14(a)1. of 
this Form 10-K is the responsibility of the Trust's management and is presented
for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules 
and is not part of the basic financial statements. This schedule has been 
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic 
financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly states in all material 
respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

       This Third Amendment (this "Amendment") is executed in Cleveland, Ohio
on July 28, 1994, by and between REALTY REFUND TRUST ("Borrower") and NATIONAL
CITY  BANK ("Bank").

                            PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS
                            
       A.     Borrower and Bank entered into a Credit Agreement dated as of
July 18, 1990, wherein Bank established a contingent revolving credit facility 
for Borrower in a principal amount not to exceed Thirty Million Dollars 
($30,000,000), which Credit Agreement was amended pursuant to the Amendment and 
Waiver dated as of July 7, 1992 and the Second Amendment dated as of March 16,
1993, respectively (the Credit Agreement, as amended, the "Agreement").

       B.     Borrower and Bank wish to further amend the Agreement on the
terms and conditions set forth hereinafter.

                                  AGREEMENT

       For valuable consideration as hereinafter granted each to the other and
intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties acknowledge the preliminary 
statements and, effective as of the date hereof, amend the terms, conditions, 
and provisions of the Agreement as follows:

       1. Effective as of the date hereof, the amount of the "subject
commitment" (as defined in the Agreement) shall be reduced to Twenty-two 
Million Dollars ($22,000,000). Effective as of August 1, 1995, the amount of 
the "subject commitment" shall be reduced to Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000).

extended until July 31, 1996.

       3.  Subsection 2B. 17 of the Agreement (captioned "BORROWING BASE") is
hereby rewritten in its entirety to read as follows:

     2B.17 BORROWING BASE -- The BORROWING BASE at any given time shall be an
     amount equal to the eighty-three and 33/100ths percent (83.33%) of the net 
     value of the eligible investments, as reasonably determined by Bank from 
     time to time.

       4.  Subsection 2B.06 (captioned "AMOUNT") is hereby rewritten in its
entirety to read as follows:

     2B.06 AMOUNT -- No subject loan shall be made if, after giving effect
     thereto, the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the subject loans would 
     exceed the lesser of the amount of the subject commitment then in effect 
     or the  borrowing base then in effect; provided, however, that the 
     proceeds of any  subject loans made on or after July 28, 1994, may be used 
     only (a) to purchase eligible investments not owned by the Borrower on 
     such date, and (b) to provide the Borrower with working capital up to the 
     amount of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) at any time outstanding.

       5.  A new Subsection 2B.13(e) is hereby added to, and made a part of,
the Agreement:
                                            -1-
<PAGE>   3
     (e)       Each prepayment shall be applied first to reduce the then
     outstanding amount of the subject indebtedness that is allocable to the 
     purchase of eligible investments, and then to reduce the then outstanding 
     amount of the subject indebtedness that is allocable to working capital.

       6. A new Subsection 5A.07 is hereby added to, and made a part of, the
Agreement:

     5A.07     JULY 31, 1995 BALANCE -- If, on August 1, 1995, the then
     outstanding balance of the subject indebtedness exceeds Ten Million 
     Dollars ($10,000,000).

       IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower and Bank have executed this Amendment at
the time and place first above mentioned.

ABOUT REALTY REFUND TRUST

   Realty ReFund Trust specializes in the refinancing of existing income
producing commercial, industrial and multi-unit residential property by
supplementing or replacing existing financing.

   The Trust's primary refinancing tool is the "wrap-around" mortgage loan. The
wrap-around refinancing technique enables both the Trust and its borrower to
utilize the leverage available in the existing first mortgage on the borrower's
property. The Trust offers a borrower a new mortgage loan (a wrap-around loan)
on that property, the principal amount of which equals the balance outstanding
on that property's existing mortgage loan plus an additional amount supplied by
the Trust.

   Established in 1971, Realty ReFund Trust has elected to be taxed as a real
estate investment trust as that term is used in Sections 856-860 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1954, as amended.

                              TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS

   We are pleased to report another successful year in 1995.

   For the year ended January 31, 1995, Realty ReFund Trust reported earnings of
$0.66 per share on net income of $670,945, compared to prior year's earnings of
$0.94 per share on net income of $955,121. Revenues for the year were $6,592,051
versus $7,645,790 in 1994.

   For the fourth quarter ended January 31, 1995, the Trust reported earnings of
$0.15 per share on net income of $153,473, compared to prior year's earnings of
$0.18 per share on net income of $183,027.

   This year's fiscal results are more comparable with the prior year's results
after accounting for depreciation. In 1994, no depreciation was recorded.

   Because of our equity investment in the Chicago property, we now must
recognize depreciation on our financial reports. Thus, we include Funds From
Operations ("FFO") to provide you with a more accurate measurement of our
year-to-year performance. The National Association of Real Estate Investment
Trusts defines FFO essentially as the sum of the net income plus depreciation
less capital gains. FFO is commonly used by REITs which have equity investments
in real estate.

CHICAGO PROPERTY

   Our property enhancement program in Chicago produced positive results this
past year. For the year ended January 31, 1995, the Trust achieved operating
profits before the deductions for depreciation and amortization for the first
time since taking title to the property in mid-1992. We are pleased with the
efforts made by our property manager in stabilizing the property's tenant base,
as well as renewing leases on favorable terms. The Trust will continue to make
investments to improve and upgrade this building and seek new opportunities to
attract and retain tenants.

<PAGE>   6

   In January 1995, we paid off the remaining mortgage loan on this building
held by an unaffiliated third party.

TOLEDO PROPERTY

   In June 1994, Owens-Corning Corporation entered into an extension of its
lease with our borrower, Riverview Tower Limited Partnership ("RTLP"). The
lease, which had been scheduled to expire in December 1994, was extended to
December 1996. With this extension, the Trust was able to extend its loan to
RTLP to December 1996.

   Since June 1994, the Trust has received principal prepayments totaling
$2,200,000 from RTLP in addition to the scheduled mortgage payments.

   RTLP continues to explore various alternatives for the building after the
expiration of the extended Owens-Corning lease. The Trust intends to cooperate
with RTLP in regard to its future plans for the property.

LOAN PORTFOLIO

   In July 1994, the Trust made a mortgage loan of $2,050,000 on a shopping
center in Saginaw, Michigan. During the first half of the year, two loans,
aggregating a net investment of $8,800,000, were prepaid.

94TH CONSECUTIVE DIVIDEND PAID

   The Board of Trustees declared a cash dividend of $0.20 per share for the
quarter ended January 31, 1995 which was paid on March 15, 1995 to shareholders
of record on March 6, 1995. We are proud of our 24-year history of dividend
payments. Few REITs can boast of 94 consecutive quarterly dividend payments. The
Trustees will continue to review future dividend payments on a
quarter-to-quarter basis.

OUTLOOK

   We have worked tirelessly to overcome the enormous obstacles that stood
between the Trust and profitability in 1993. Two profitable years later, our
work is yet to be finished. Much remains to be done to seek new opportunities
for our shareholders and to preserve the value of your investment. In 1995 and
beyond, this continues to be our mission. We thank you for your continued
loyalty and support.

(f) The Trust's net investment in these loans bears interest at variable rates
    based on specified increments over the prime lending rate. As the prime lending
    rate increased in fiscal 1995 and decreased in fiscal 1994 and 1993, the
    average yield on these loans fluctuated accordingly.  Reference should be made
    to the schedule of investments in loans receivable included in Note 9 to the
    financial statements.

        Interest income on mortgage loans receivable decreased in 1995 as
compared to 1994 due to the prepayment of the Akron, Ohio and Dallas, Texas
wrap-around mortgage loans in April and May 1994, respectively, and the normal
amortization of mortgage loan balances. This decrease was partially offset by
the effect of higher prime lending rates on variable rate mortgage loans,
prepayment fees and other income related to the previously mentioned loan
prepayments aggregating approximately $190,000 and interest income on the
Saginaw, Michigan loan made in July 1994. Interest expense on mortgage loans
payable decreased in 1995 as compared to 1994, due to the prepayments of the
loans underlying the Akron, Ohio and Dallas, Texas wrap-around loan investments
and the normal amortization of the fixed rate  mortgage loan balances.
        
        Interest expense on bank borrowing decreased in 1995 as compared to
1994 due to lower average borrowing levels. The proceeds from the Akron, Ohio 
and Dallas, Texas loan prepayments  were utilized to reduce bank borrowings.
The effect of lower average borrowing levels more than offset the effect of
higher bank interest rates. Interest expense on the note payable to related
party increased due to higher interest rates.
        
        Commencing February 1, 1994, the Trust began providing depreciation on
the Chicago building held for sale. For 1995, the building incurred an operating
loss of $175,000, inclusive of depreciation and amortization charges of
$336,000. These results compare favorably with the 1994 building operating loss
of $108,000, which included amortization charges of $27,000, when the effects of
depreciation and amortization are removed. The improvement in building operating
results is attributable primarily to lower levels of repair and maintenance
expenditures in 1995.

        Other operating expenses increased in both 1995 and 1994 due to higher
levels of legal and professional fees.

        In 1994, interest income on mortgage loans decreased as compared to 1993
due to the normal amortization of mortgage loan balances, the effect of lower
average prime lending rates on variable rate loans receivable in 1994 and the
inclusion of $95,000 of interest income on the Chicago property in 1993. 
Interest expense on mortgage loans payable decreased in 1994 as compared to 
1993 due to the normal amortization of the fixed rate mortgage loan balances.

        Interest expense on loans from bank and related parties increased
approximately $50,000 in the aggregate in 1994 as compared to 1993. The increase
was due to the effect of higher average borrowing levels being partially offset
by lower average interest rates in 1994. Average borrowing levels were higher in
1994 as compared to 1993 due to the funding of the purchase of a substantial fee
interest in the land on which the Chicago building is located. Also, borrowings
related to the Dallas, Texas investment and failed merger costs in 1993 were
outstanding for a full year in 1994.

        The fee to the Advisor increased in 1994, as compared to 1993
as the relationship between Trust income and expenses more closely approximated
the thresholds established in the advisory agreement. In 1993, the Advisor was
required to forego approximately $188,000 of fees due to the Trust's operating
expenses exceeding thresholds specified in the advisory agreement. In 1994, the
amount of advisory fees so foregone was approximately $22,000.

        The 1994 results of the Trust include the operating results of the
Chicago property for a full year as compared to approximately five months in
1993. During 1994 and 1993, the Chicago property incurred operating losses of
approximately $108,000 and $182,000, respectively. Rental revenues for 1994 as
compared to annualized 1993 revenues decreased due to decreased occupancy.
Property operating expenses were considerable in fiscal 1994 as the Trust
incurred substantial costs in rehabilitating the building.

        In May 1992, the borrower under the Trust's Chicago office building
loans notified the Trust that it would cease making scheduled mortgage payments
after the May 1992 payment.  In late July 1992, the Trust took title to the
property in lieu of foreclosure on the building. Prior thereto, the Trust had
mortgage loans receivable on the building of approximately $12,000,000 and an
underlying loan obligation of approxi-

                                       6
<PAGE>   10

mately $832,000. An independent appraisal of the building was completed in
October 1992 which indicated a net realizable value of $7,260,000. Accordingly,
the Trust recorded a $4,740,343 write-down of its investment in the
Chicago building, with a corresponding charge against 1993 operations. The Trust
intends to sell the building, but the timing and terms of any such sale cannot
be predicted. The Trust ceased accruing interest on the mortgage loans when
payments ceased in May 1992. The operating loss of the property has been 
included in the Trust's operating results since the Trust took title to the 
building.

        The Trust historically has specialized in mortgage financing as its
investment vehicle. In 1990, the Trustees authorized the Advisor to search for,
and submit to the Trustees for approval, equity investments as well as mortgage
investments. On December 27, 1991, the Trust entered into an Omnibus Acquisition
Agreement (the Omnibus Agreement) which provided for the contemporaneous
consummation of two mergers, whereby newly formed, wholly owned subsidiaries of
the Trust would be merged with and into two limited partnerships. The Omnibus
Agreement was terminated in May 1992 following (i) the institution of a class
action lawsuit against such partnerships and their general partners by certain
limited partners of such partnerships and (ii) the default of the borrower under
the Chicago office building loans. Accordingly, previously deferred merger costs
incurred in connection with the proposed mergers of $1,007,609 have been charged
against income and have been reflected as an unusual item in the statements of
income for 1993.

        In October 1993, the tenant which occupies 99% of the Toledo, Ohio
office building announced that it would be relocating from the Toledo building
to an as-yet unbuilt facility. In June 1994, the maturity date of the Trust's
wraparound mortgage loan on the property was extended to December 1996 and
certain terms of the loan were modified. The loan extension and modification
required the borrower to make prepayments of loan principal aggregating
$2,200,000 during fiscal 1995. An additional prepayment of principal in the
amount of $850,000 is due to the Trust in January 1996. The interest rate on the
Trust's net investment, previously 4% above the prime rate, was fixed at 10%.
The Trust intends to cooperate with the building owner in considering its
possible alternative responses to the tenant's decision and in formulating plans
for the future use of the building. A corporation owned by the Chairman of the
Trust is the general partner in the partnership which owns the Toledo building.
The partnership owning the building has no substantial assets or sources of
revenue other than the building. As such, if the partnership is unable to obtain
a replacement tenant(s) or otherwise generate sufficient cash flow to meet its
obligations under the wrap-around mortgage loan, the operating results,
financial position and cash flow of the Trust could be adversely affected. Due
to the preliminary status of planning for future uses of the building and the
receipt of substantial principal prepayments in fiscal 1995, the Trust concluded
that no writedown of its investment in the building was required at January 31,
1995.


LIQUIDITY

        To maintain tax-exempt status, the Trust is required to distribute at
least 95% of its taxable income to its shareholders. It is currently the policy
of the Trust to distribute sufficient dividends to maintain its tax-exempt
status. As a result of the substantial loss in 1993, the Trust has available
approximately $4.6 million of net operating loss carryforwards for income tax
purposes. The loss carryforwards can be used to reduce future dividend payment
requirements and still allow the Trust to maintain its tax-exempt status. The
Trustees will assess the level of dividends to be declared on a quarterly basis.

        For 1995 as compared to 1994, net cash provided by operating activities
decreased due to the reduction in the Trust's loan investment portfolio and the
higher levels of payments to the Advisor and other suppliers more than offset 
the improved operating performance of the Chicago building and the receipt 
of prepayment and other fees on the Akron, Ohio and Dallas, Texas loan
prepayments.

        Cash from investing activities increased considerably in 1995 due to the
Akron, Ohio ($7,400,000 net investment) and Dallas, Texas ($1,400,000 net
investment) loan prepayments, additional principal amortization ($2,200,000)
received on the Toledo, Ohio loan pursuant to the previously 

                                       7
<PAGE>   11

discussed loan extension agreement, the normal amortization of mortgage loan
balances and a lower level of expenditures for land and building and tenant
improvements at the Chicago property. A partially offsetting factor was the use
of $2,050,000 of funds in 1995 for a new loan on a shopping center in Saginaw,
Michigan.

        Cash from financing activities decreased in 1995 as compared to 1994 as
the proceeds from the Akron, Ohio and Dallas, Texas loan prepayments and the
additional principal amortization received on the Toledo, Ohio loan were
utilized to reduce bank borrowings. In 1994, the Trust obtained $5,000,000 of
borrowings from a related party.

        For 1994, as compared to 1993, net cash provided by operating activities
increased due to a lower level of cash payments to the Advisor and suppliers.
A primary cause of the decrease in such payments was the refund of 1993 fees 
from the Advisor of $188,000 being received in 1994.

        Net cash used for investing activities decreased in 1994 as compared to
1993 as the impact of the investments in the land and tenant improvements at the
Chicago property in 1994 was more than offset by the payments of failed merger
costs in 1993 and the investment in the Dallas, Texas loan in 1993. There were
no new loan investments in 1994. Principal collected on mortgage loans
receivable and principal payments on mortgage loans payable decreased in 1994
due to the normal amortization of mortgage loan balances.

        Net cash from financing activities in 1994 decreased considerably from
1993 as less bank borrowings were required to fund investing activities.

        In connection with the Trust's wrap-around loans, while the entire debt
service is received in cash, the Trust is obligated to the borrower to make
debt service payments on the underlying indebtedness. Additionally, the Trust
will be funding any operating deficits of the Chicago building until such time
as it is sold. However, management believes that rental revenues of the property
will be sufficient to fund property operating expenses.  The Trust's primary
sources of funds are a bank line of credit in the amount of $22,000,000 and
repayments of mortgage loans receivable. The line of credit is used to provide
the Trust with a source of funds when payments due on loans underlying the
Trust's wrap-around loans are in excess of the payments due the Trust or to fund
losses such as experienced in 1993. In July 1994, the bank extended the line of
credit to July 1996. Availability under the line of credit is $22,000,000 until
August 1, 1995, at which time availability will be reduced to $10,000,000. The
agreement provides for a borrowing base equal to 83.3% of the Trust's
investments, as defined, and $3,000,000 for working capital with any remainder
being available for new investments. No other significant changes were
incorporated into the line of credit agreement. As of January 31, 1995, the
Trust had available approximately $10,190,000 under the line of credit.

        In August 1994, the Trust exercised its right to extend the maturity
date of the note payable to related party to August 1995. 


INFLATION

        Generally, inflation affects the Trust as it affects its borrowers and
the underlying real estate collateral. This type of collateral traditionally has
been able to sustain itself during periods of inflation.


OTHER

        In December 1991, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments." As the Trust has less than $150 million of
total assets, the standard will not be effective until the fiscal year ended
January 31, 1996. The standard will require the Trust to disclose in its
financial statements or notes thereto, the fair value of assets and liabilities
which meet the standard's definition of financial instruments. The primary
assets and liabilities of the Trust which qualify as financial instruments are
mortgage loans receivable and payable and notes payable.

                       January 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Principles of Consolidation
        The financial statements include the accounts of Realty ReFund Trust
and its wholly owned subsidiaries RRF LP I, Inc. and RRF LP II, Inc.
(collectively, the Trust). All significant intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated in the accompanying finacial statements.

Investments in Wrap-Around Mortgages and Related Underlying Loans
        In a wrap-around mortgage structure, the principal amount secured by the
mortgage note held by the Trust is equal to the outstanding balance under the
prior mortgage loan plus the amount of funds advanced by the Trust. The notes
held by the Trust are subordinate to the underlying prior indebtedness. The
Trust agrees with the borrower to make principal and interest payments to the
holder of the existing prior mortgage, but only to the extent scheduled payments
are received from the borrower and no other default exists. Generally, the Trust
has the right to pay off the prior indebtedness and succeed to its priority.
        The mortgage notes held by the Trust generally are coterminous with the
underlying prior indebtedness and provide for lump-sum payments by the borrower
upon maturity.
        Scheduled minimum payments during the five years ending January 31, 2000
and, thereafter, are approximately as follows:

Depreciation and Amortization
        Commencing February 1, 1994, the Trust began recording depreciation on
the Chicago building held for sale. Depreciation is being provided on a
straight-line basis over the 30-year estimated economic life of the building.
Accumulated depreciation of the building and building improvements at January
31, 1995 was $244,000.
        Included in real estate held for sale at January 31, 1995 and 1994 are
tenant improvement costs of $672,000 and $230,000, respectively, which are being
amortized on a straight-line basis over the related lease terms, which are
generally five years. Accumulated amortization of such costs was $116,000 and
$29,000 at January 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
        Included in interest receivable and other assets at January 31, 1995 are
deferred leasing commissions of $162,000 which are being amortized on a
straight-line basis over the related lease terms. Accumulated amortization of
such deferred costs at January 31, 1995 is $6,000.
        Included in interest receivable and other assets are legal costs
incurred in selling the secured note payable to related party discussed in Note
5. These deferred costs are fully amortized as of January 31, 1995. Accumulated
amortization at January 31, 1995 and 1994 was $110,000 and $71,000,
respectively. Amortization expense of $39,000 and $71,000 is included in
interest expense on loans from related parties in the accompanying statements
of income for 1995 and 1994, respectively.

Earnings Per Share
        Earnings per share has been computed based on the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the periods. Earnings per share for 1995,
1994 and 1993 was based upon 1,020,586 shares. During these periods the Trust
had no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

Statements of Cash Flows
        The Trust considers all highly liquid short-term investments with the
original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  
        In July 1992, in a noncash transaction, the Trust accepted title in lieu
of foreclosure on a Chicago office building. See Note 2 for further discussion.

Reclassifications
        Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
current year presentation.

New Accounting Principles
        In December 1991, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments." The Trust is not required to adopt the standard
until the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996. The standard will require the
Trust to disclose in its financial statements or notes thereto, the fair value
of assets and liabilities which meet the standard's definition of financial
instruments. The primary assets and liabilities of the Trust which qualify as
financial instruments are mortgage loans receivable and payable and notes
payable.

2. REAL ESTATE HELD FOR SALE:
        In May 1992, the borrower under the Trust's Chicago office building
loans notified the Trust that it would cease making scheduled mortgage payments
after the May 1992 payment. In late July 1992, the Trust accepted title in
lieu of foreclosure on the building. Prior thereto, the Trust had mortgage loans
receivable on the building of approximately $12,000,000 and an underlying loan
obligation of approximately $832,000. An appraisal was completed in October 1992
indicating a building net realizable value of $7,260,000.

                                      13

<PAGE>   17

        Accordingly, the Trust recorded a $4,740,000 write-down of its
investment in the Chicago building with a corresponding charge against fiscal
1993 operations. During the year ended January 31, 1994, the Trust purchased an
83% interest in the land underlying the building for approximately $897,000. The
Trust intends to sell the building, but the timing and terms of any such sale
cannot be predicted. The Trust ceased accruing interest on the mortgage loans
when payments ceased in May 1992. Interest income recorded by the Trust on this
investment was approximately $95,000 in 1993. The operating results of the
property have been included in the accompanying statements of income since the
date of the title acceptance.

3. UNUSUAL ITEM:
        In December 1991, the Trust entered into an Omnibus Acquisition
Agreement (the Omnibus Agreement) which provided for the contemporaneous
consummation of two mergers, whereby newly formed, wholly owned subsidiaries of
the Trust would be merged with and into two Delaware limited partnerships,
Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. (LCIF I) and Lepercq Corporate Income Fund II
L.P. (LCIF II). The Omnibus Agreement was terminated in May 1992 due to a
combination of the Chicago office building loans default and a class action
lawsuit instituted against LCIF I, LCIF II and their general partners by limited
partners of LCIF I and LCIF II. Accordingly, $1,008,000 of previously deferred
costs incurred in connection with the proposed mergers were charged against
income and have been reflected as an unusual item in the accompanying statement
of operations for 1993.

4. NOTE PAYABLE TO BANK:
        The Trust has a revolving credit agreement with a bank.  At the option
of the Trust, borrowings against the line of credit bear interest at either the
bank's prime lending rate or a fixed rate equal to 1.5% over LIBOR. A commitment
fee of 3/8% is payable on the unused portion of the line of credit. Among other
provisions, the agreement provides that the Trust cannot permit its net worth,
including subordinated debt, to be less than $17 million and that total debt,
excluding wrap-around mortgages, and senior indebtedness are limited to 300% and
225%, respectively, of the Trust's net worth.
        In July 1994, the bank extended the Trust's revolving credit agreement 
to July 31, 1996. Availability under the agreement is $22,000,000 until August
1, 1995 at which time availability will be reduced to $10,000,000. The agreement
provides for a borrowing base equal to 83.3% of the Trust's investments, as
defined, and $3,000,000 for working capital, with any remainder being available
for new investments. As of January 31, 1995, the Trust had borrowed $11,810,000
under this agreement. At January 31, 1995, the Trust had available approximately
$10,190,000 under the amended terms of the agreement. 
        For the years ended January 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, the average daily
bank borrowings were $12,427,000, $20,075,000 and $19,394,000, respectively,
with a weighted average interest rate (actual interest expense divided by
average daily borrowings) of 6.40%, 4.81% and 5.46%, respectively. The weighted
average interest rates on bank borrowings outstanding at January 31, 1995, and
1994 were 7.34% and 4.76%, respectively. As of January 31, 1995, the prime rate
was 8.5%.

5. NOTE PAYABLE TO RELATED PARTY:
        In March 1993, the Trust sold a $5,000,000 secured note to the Chairman
of the Trust, at par. The note bears interest at the prime lending rate and had
a stated maturity date of August 1994. As the Trust's revolving credit
agreement was extended to July 1996, the Trust exercised its option to extend 
the maturity of the note to August 1995. The note is subordinate to the Trust's 
bank line of credit.
        Until May 1992, the Trust had outstanding borrowings from the former 
Chairman of the Trust and from The Mid-America Management Corporation, an 
entity owned by the present Chairman of the Trust. Borrowings under such notes
were payable upon demand and accrued interest at 1/2% below the lowest rate 
then available to the Trust under the bank revolving credit agreement at the 
time such loan was made. These notes were subordinate to the Trust's bank 
borrowings. Total related party interest expense on these borrowings was 
approximately $72,000 in 1993.

6. Federal Income Taxes:
        No provision for current or deferred income taxes has been made by the
Trust on the basis that it qualifies under Sections 856-860 of the Internal
Revenue Code as a real estate investment trust and has distributed or will
distribute all of its taxable income for the year ended January 31, 1995 to
shareholders. On February 22, 1995, the Trustees declared a dividend, payable on
March 15, 1995, in the amount of $.20 per share of beneficial interest, totaling
$204,000. The total dividends per share applicable to operating results for the
year ended January 31, 1995, including the declaration on February 22, 1995,
amount to $.80.
        An income tax net operating loss of approximately $4,600,000 was
incurred in fiscal 1993 and is available for carryforward until fiscal 2008. A
portion of the dividends paid in the calendar years 1992-1994 represents a
return of capital primarily as a result of the net operating loss for fiscal
1993 and for fiscal 1994 and 1995, depreciation deductions for tax reporting
purposes relative to the building held for sale. The quarterly allocation of 
cash dividends paid per share for individual shareholders' income tax purposes
was as follows:

        A portion of the dividend paid in March 1992 was ordinary income, as for
income tax purposes such amount represented a distribution of earnings
applicable to the fiscal year ended January 31, 1992.  
        The tax status of distributions to shareholders in fiscal 1996 will be
dependent on the level of the Trust's earnings in that year.  If fiscal 1996
taxable income of the Trust exceeds dividends paid in that year, such dividends
will represent ordinary income to the recipients irrespective of the net
operating loss carryforward.

7. ADVISORY AGREEMENT/EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS:
        The Trust has an Advisory Agreement with Mid-America ReaFund Advisors,
Inc. (the Advisor) which provides for the administration of the day-to-day
investment operations of the Trust. The Advisor is an entity which is jointly
owned by the present Chairman and President of the Trust. Under the terms of
this agreement, the Advisor is to receive, subject to certain limitations, a
monthly fee equal to 1/12 of 1% of invested assets, as defined in the agreement,
and an annual incentive fee equal to (a) 10% of the amount by which the net
income of the Trust exceeds 8% of the average net worth for the year and (b) 10%
of the difference between net realized capital gains less accumulated net
realized capital losses, as defined. For any fiscal year in which operating
expenses of the Trust exceed certain thresholds specified in the agreement, the
Advisor is required to refund to the Trust the amount of such excess. There was
no refund requirement with respect to fiscal 1995. For fiscal 1994 and 1993,
operating expenses exceeded the specified thresholds by $22,000
and $188,000, respectively.
        The Chairman and President of the Trust have employment agreements with
the Trust, expiring in 2005, each of which have been extended in the past and
are expected to be extended in the future. The employment agreements provide
that these individuals will receive no compensation from the Trust as long as
the Advisory Agreement is in effect. However, should the Advisor no longer
provide services to the Trust, these individuals will then be compensated,
collectively, upon the same annual basis as the Advisor would have been
compensated under the current terms of the Advisory Agreement had it remained
in effect.

8. LOANS PAYABLE:
        As of January 31, 1995, the Trust had outstanding the following

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Shareholders and Trustees,
Realty ReFund Trust:

   We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Realty ReFund Trust (an
Ohio unincorporated business trust) as of January 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended January 31, 1995. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. The
summarized financial data contained in Note 11 are based on the financial
statements of Riverview Tower Limited Partnership and Pacific Place Partners,
LTD. which were audited by other auditors. Their reports have been furnished to
us and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the data in Note 11, is based
solely on the reports of the other auditors.

   We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

   In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of Realty ReFund Trust as of January 31, 1995 and 1994,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended January 31, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

                                PROXY STATEMENT
 
     The accompanying proxy is solicited by the Trustees of Realty ReFund Trust
(the "Trust") for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on May
15, 1995 and any adjournments thereof.
 
     Shareholders of record at the close of business on March 17, 1995 (the
record date) will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting and at any
adjournments thereof. At that date the Trust had issued and outstanding
1,020,586 Shares of Beneficial Interest. Each such Share is entitled to one vote
on all matters properly coming before the Annual Meeting. At least 510,294
Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust must be represented at the Annual
Meeting in person or by proxy in order to constitute a quorum for the
transaction of business.
 
     This Proxy Statement and the accompanying form of proxy were first mailed
to Shareholders on April 7, 1995.
 
                              ELECTION OF TRUSTEES
 
     At this Annual Meeting, five Trustees are to be elected for a term expiring
at the 1996 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until their respective successors
are duly elected and qualified. Unless a Shareholder requests that voting of the
proxy be withheld for any one or more of the nominees for Trustee in accordance
with the instructions set forth on the proxy, it presently is intended that
Shares of Beneficial Interest represented by proxies solicited hereby will be
voted for the election as Trustees of the five nominees named in the table
below. All nominees have consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and to
serve if elected. Should any nominee subsequently decline or be unable to accept
such nomination or to serve as a Trustee, an event which the Trustees do not now
expect, the persons voting the Shares of Beneficial Interest represented by
proxies solicited hereby may either vote such Shares for a slate of five persons
which includes a substitute nominee or for a reduced number of nominees, as they
may deem advisable.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
 
     The Trust is a party to an Advisory Agreement under which the Trust
receives certain services from Mid-America ReaFund Advisors, Inc. ("MARA"), a
corporation owned by Alan M. Krause and James H. Berick. The Advisory Agreement
provides that MARA, under the supervision of the Trustees, serves as investment
adviser and consultant in connection with the policy decisions to be made by the
Trustees of the Trust and as administrator of the day-to-day investment
operations of the Trust. In return for MARA's services, the Advisory Agreement
provides, in part, that MARA is to receive (a) a monthly fee of 1/12th of 1% of
the average book value of the invested assets of the Trust during the next
preceding month; (b) 15% of the commitment fees
 
                                        4
<PAGE>   7
 
received by the Trust for any stand-by or gap commitment relating to a mortgage
loan which is not closed; and (c) an incentive fee equal to 10% of the amount,
if any, by which the net profits of the Trust exceed 8% of the average monthly
net worth of the Trust for the year. MARA will refund to the Trust the amount,
if any, by which the operating expenses of the Trust in any fiscal year exceed
the lesser of (x) 1 1/2% of the invested assets of the Trust for such fiscal
year or (y) the greater of (i) 1 1/2% of the average month-end net assets of the
Trust for such fiscal year or (ii) 25% of the net income of the Trust for such
fiscal year. The Trust paid an aggregate amount of $294,115 to MARA for services
rendered under the Advisory Agreement during the year ended January 31, 1995.
 
     Each of Messrs. Krause and Berick has an employment agreement with the
Trust, expiring in 2005, which provides that he will receive no compensation
from the Trust as long as the Advisory Agreement is in effect. Should MARA no
longer provide such services, Messrs. Krause and Berick will then be
compensated, collectively, upon the same annual basis as is MARA with each to
receive, as long as he continues to be employed pursuant to his employment
agreement, an amount equal to (a) if both of Messrs. Krause and Berick continue
their employment with the Trust, one-half of the compensation that would have
been paid to MARA or (b) if only one of Messrs. Krause and Berick continues his
employment with the Trust, the full amount of the compensation that would have
been paid to MARA.
 
     The Trust has a wrap-around mortgage loan on an office building in Toledo,
Ohio owned by Riverview Tower Limited Partnership, a limited partnership of
which an affiliate of Mr. Krause is a general partner. The loan bears interest
at a rate per annum equal to 10%. The maturity date of this loan has been
extended to December 31, 1996. During the year ended January 31, 1995, the
largest principal balance of the loan was $13,706,529 and the largest amount of
the Trust's net investment in the loan was $9,288,468. As of March 31, 1995, the
outstanding principal balance of the loan was $10,922,815 and the Trust's net
investment in the loan was $7,200,521.
 
     On March 16, 1993, the Trust borrowed $5,000,000 from Mr. Krause by selling
to him the Trust's $5,000,000 note (the "Note") at par. The Note will bear
interest at the base lending rate of National City Bank, Cleveland, Ohio ("NCB")
and will mature on August 31, 1995, subject to extension for up to one
additional year in certain circumstances. The Note is secured by a lien on the
assets of the Trust, which lien is subordinate to the prior lien of NCB. In
connection with the closing of such financing, the Trustees received the written
opinion of an independent investment banking firm that the terms of such
financing were fair, from a financial point of view, to the other Shareholders
of the Trust. The proceeds of the sale of the Note were used to reduce the
Trust's outstanding indebtedness to NCB under its revolving line of credit.

INVOLVEMENT IN CERTAIN LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
     Mr. Krause has been both an owner and an investor in a significant number
of real estate projects and, directly or through affiliates, is a general
partner in numerous real estate partnerships. A property owned by one of such
real estate partnerships was sold in 1994 through foreclosure.

                            SELECTION OF ACCOUNTANTS
 
     The Trustees have selected Arthur Andersen LLP as independent auditors to
examine the books, records and accounts of the Trust for the fiscal year ending
January 31, 1996. Arthur Andersen LLP was the independent auditors of the Trust
for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995 and is considered by the Trustees to
be well qualified.
 
     Representatives of Arthur Andersen LLP are expected to be present at the
Annual Meeting with the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so
and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.
 
                                 OTHER MATTERS
 
     The Trustees know of no matters to be presented for action at the Annual
Meeting other than those described in this Proxy Statement. Should other matters
come before the meeting, the Shares represented by proxies solicited hereby will
be voted with respect thereto in accordance with the best judgment of the proxy
holders.
 
                             SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS
 
     If a Shareholder intends to present a proposal at the next Annual Meeting
of Shareholders, presently scheduled for May 15, 1996, it must be received by
the Trust for consideration for inclusion in the Trust's Proxy Statement and
form of proxy relating to that meeting on or before December 8, 1995.
 
                             REVOCATION OF PROXIES
 
     A proxy may be revoked at any time before a vote is taken or the authority
granted is otherwise exercised. Revocation may be accomplished by the execution
of a later proxy with regard to the same shares or by giving notice in writing
or in open meeting.
 
                            SOLICITATION OF PROXIES
 
     The cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by the Trust. The Trust does
not expect to pay any compensation for the solicitation of proxies but may pay
brokers, nominees, fiduciaries and custodians their reasonable expenses for
sending proxy material to principals and obtaining their instructions. In
addition to solicitation by mail, proxies may be solicited in person, by
telephone or telegraph, or by Trustees and officers of the Trust.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT


RIVERVIEW TOWER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP


We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Riverview Tower Limited
Partnership, A Limited Partnership, as of December 31, 1994, and the related
statements of partners' equity, operations and changes in cash position for the
year then ended.  These financial statements and the schedules referred to
below are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on
our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating overall financial statement
presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Riverview Tower Limited Part-
nership, A Limited Partnership, as at December 31, 1994, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.  The information contained in Exhibits E and F is
presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the
basic financial statements.  This information has been subjected to the audit-
ing procedures applied in our audit of the basic financial statements and, in
our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

RIVERVIEW TOWER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP



We have audited the accompanying statement of assets, liabilities and equity -
income tax basis of Riverview Tower Limited Partnership, A Limited Partnership,
as of December 31, 1993, and the related statements of revenues and     
expenses - income tax basis, partners' equity - income tax basis and cash 
flows - income tax basis for the year then ended.  These financial statements 
are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to 
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence 
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit 
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant 
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating overall financial

                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS             Exhibit D




NOTE 1  - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- -----------------------------------------

   Basis of Accounting
   -------------------

   The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual
   method of accounting used for federal income tax purposes.  Consequently, 
   certain revenues and expenses are recognized in the determination of income  
   in different reporting periods than they would be if the financial 
   statements were prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting 
   principles.  Although income tax rules are used to determine the timing of 
   the reporting of revenues and expenses, nontaxable revenues and 
   nondeductible expenses are included in the determination of net income.

   Net Income - Income Tax Basis
   -----------------------------
   In accordance with the Company's policy, net income - income tax basis
   includes nontaxable revenue and nondeductible expenses in addition to taxable
   revenue and deductible expenses.

   Property and Equipment
   ----------------------
   If an expenditure results in an asset having an estimated useful life that
   extends beyond the year of acquisition, the expenditure is capitalized and
   depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset.  Building, 
   improvements, and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated using 
   Straight-Line or Accelerated Cost Recovery Methods as follows:


<TABLE>
        <S>                             <C>             <C>
        Buildings                       19 Years        ACRS - Straight-Line
        Building Improvements           10 Years        ACRS - Straight-Line
        Equipment & Improvements         5 Years        ACRS
</TABLE>

   Accordingly, the depreciation and amortization recorded is not purported to
   be an accurate reflection of economic depreciation and amortization.

   Adjustments Necessary To Conform With Generally Accepted Accounting
   -------------------------------------------------------------------
   Principles (GAAP)
   -----------------
   As stated in the accountants report and previously in Note 1 of the Notes To
   Financial Statements, the Company has used various depreciation and
   amortization methods which do not conform to generally accepted accounting 
   principles (GAAP).  Had the Company conformed to GAAP the accumulated 
   depreciation and amortization and partners' Capital accounts would be 
   adjusted as follows:

                           INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
                           ----------------------------



       To the Partners of
       Pacific Place Partners, LTD.


           We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Pacific Place
       Partners, LTD. (A Texas Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 1994
       and 1993, and the related statements of income, partners capital, and
       cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
       responsibility of the partnership's management.   Our responsibility is
       to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
       The 1992 financial statements of Pacific Place Partners, LTD were
       audited by other accountants, whose report dated February 19, 1993
       expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

            We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted
       auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perfom the
       audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
       statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
       examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
       disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
       assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
       by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
       presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for
       our opinion.

            In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
       fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pacific
       Place Partners, LTD., as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results
       of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in
       conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        -----------------------------

      NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Property and Equipment
      ----------------------
      The partnership is computing depreciation using the straight-line method
      over the estimated useful lives of the assets over a period of 5-40
      years.  Expenditures of maintenance, repairs and improvements which do not
      materially extend the useful lives of the property are charged to
      earnings.

      Income Taxes
      ------------
      No provision for income taxes is made in the financial statements of the
      partnership because, as a partnership, it is not subject to income tax, as
      the tax effect of its activities accrue to the partners.

      Amortization
      ------------
      Fees and expenses incurred in connection with placing the underlying
      financing in the amount of $207,500 are being amortized over five years
      on a straight-line basis.

      Expenses incurred in acquiring the property in the amount of $192,500 are
      being amortized over forty years on a straight-line basis.

      Statement of Cash Flows
      -----------------------
      For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash consists of 
      unrestricted cash in a checking account.

      Credit Risk-Economic Dependency
      -------------------------------
      On March 1, 1993, Lockheed Corporation purchased the Fort Worth Division
      of General Dynamics (the sole tenant).  Lockheed purchased all of the
      assets held by the division and assumed all of the liabilities, including
      those under the lease with the Partnership.

      In the process of Lockheed's assumption of the General Dynamics Lease,
      the Partnership was able to negotiate a Consent Agreement which granted
      Lockheed the right to assume the Lease so long as General Dynamics
      remains jointly liable under the lease.  As of December 31, 1994, two
      years remain on the lease.  There are no renewal options in the lease
      agreement.

      NOTE 2 - THE PARTNERSHIP

      The partnership was formed on April 1, 1983 under the laws of the State
      of Texas for the purpose of acquiring, owning, and operating a
      twenty-story office building located in Dallas, Texas.      On November
      25, 1991, the partnership conveyed its land, building and personal
      property to 1910 Associates, LTD.  (1910) in exchange for land, buildings
      and personal property located in Fort Worth, Texas.  That transaction was
      reported as qualifying for nonrecognition of gain for income tax
      purposes.

      ICA Pacific Place, Inc., is the general partner of the partnership.

      NOTE 3 - MORTGAGE PAYABLE

      The partnership is indebted to 1910 Associates, LTD. under a wrap-around
      mortgage agreement in the initial amount of $48,187,500.  The loan bears
      interest at 13% per annum during the initial five year term.  Payment
      terms call for monthly payments in the amount of $958,333.33 for the
      first twelve months and $625,170.70 for the succeeding forty-eight months.
      During the initial term of the loan, the debt service payments are equal
      to the rental payments.  The note is secured by the partnership's land,
      buildings, and equipment under a Deed of Trust.  The tenant is making
      payments directly to the mortgagees.  The underlying mortgagees,
      Principal Mutual Life Insurance Company, Realty Refund Trust and
      Prentiss/Copley Investment Group are secured by liens, security interests
      and collateral assignments of rents and leases.  The initial term of the
      wrap loan is five years but may be extended under certain conditions.
      The two extension periods are for five and fifteen years, respectively.

                           INEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT




     To the Partners of
     Pacific Place Partners, LTD.


          We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Pacific Place
     Partners, LTD.  (A Texas Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 1993, and
     the related statement of income, partners capital, and cash flows for the
     year then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the
     partnership's management.   Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
     these financial statements based on our audit.

          We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
     standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
     obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
     free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test
     basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
     statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
     used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
     the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit
     provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

          In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
     fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pacific Place
     Partners, LTD., as of December 31, 1993, and the results of its operations
     and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles.

  NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  Property and Equipment
  ----------------------
  The partnership is computing depreciation using the straight-line method over
  the estimated useful lives of the assets over a period of 5-40 years.
  Expenditures of maintenance, repairs and improvements which do not materially
  extend the useful lives of the property are charged to earnings.

  Income Taxes
  ------------
  No provision for income taxes is made in the financial statements of the
  partnership because, as a partnership, it is not subject to income tax, as the
  tax effect of its activities accrue to the partners.

  Amortization
  ------------
  Fees and expenses incurred in connection with placing the underlying
  financing in the amount of $207,500 are being amortized over five years on a
  straight-line basis.

  Expenses incurred in acquiring the property in the amount of $192,500 are
  being amortized over forty years on a straight-line basis.

  Statement of Cash Flows
  -----------------------
  For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash consists of unrestricted
  cash.

  Credit Risk-Economic Dependency
  -------------------------------
  On March 1, 1993, Lockheed Corporation purchased the Fort Worth Division of
  General Dynamics (the sole tenant).  Lockheed purchased all of the assets held
  by the division and assumed all of the liabilities, including those under the
  lease with the Partnership.

  In the process of Lockheed's assumption of the General Dynamics Lease, the
  Partnership was able to negotiate a Consent Agreement which granted Lockheed
  the right to assume the Lease so long as General Dynamics remains jointly
  liable under the lease.    As of December 31, 1993, three years remain on the
  lease.  There are no renewal options in the lease agreement.

    NOTE 2 THE PARTNERSHIP

    The partnership was formed on April 1, 1983 under the laws of the State of
    Texas for the purpose of acquiring, owning, and operating a twenty-story
    office building located in Dallas, Texas.     On November 25, 1991, the
    partnership conveyed its land, building and personal property to 1910
    Associates, LTD.  (1910) in exchange for land, buildings and personal
    property located in Forth Worth, Texas.  That transaction was reported as
    qualifying for nonrecognition of gain for income tax purposes.

    ICA Pacific Place, Inc., is the general partner of the partnership.

    NOTE 3 MORTGAGE PAYABLE

    The partnership is indebted to 1910 Associates, LTD. under a wrap-around
    mortgage agreement in the initial amount of $48,187,500.  The loan bears
    interest at 13% per annum during the initial five year term.  Payment terms
    call for monthly payments in the amount of $958,333.33 for the first twelve
    months and $625,170.70 for the succeeding forty-eight months.  During the
    initial term of the loan, the debt service payments are equal to the rental 
    payments.  The note is secured by the partnership's land, buildings, and
    equipment under a Deed of Trust.  The tenant is making payments directly to
    the mortgagees.  The underlying mortgagees, Principal Mutual Life Insurance 
    Company, Realty Refund Trust and Prentiss/Copley Investment Group are
    secured by liens, security interests and collateral assignments of rents
    and leases. The initial term of the wrap loan is five years but may be
    extended under certain conditions.  The two extension periods are for five
    and fifteen years, respectively.
