                             NORTH OAKS PARTNERSHIP
                                       AND
                       NORTH OAKS REAL ESTATE PARTNERSHIP

                     NOTES TO COMBINING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               September 30, 1997


A.       Basis for Presentation

         The accompanying unaudited financial statements of North Oaks
         Partnership (Partnership) and North Oaks Real Estate Partnership
         (NOREP), in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (none of
         which were other than normal recurring items), eliminations, and
         reclassifications considered necessary for a fair statement and
         presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. For
         purposes of preparing the combined financial statements, all material
         transactions between the partnerships have been eliminated but not
         displayed, including the elimination of the NOREP obligation to the
         Partnership. The partnership and NOREP are sometimes herein after
         referred to as "Partnerships".

         The Partnership and NOREP were formed to develop, own and operate North
         Oaks Retirement Community (the Project).

         Because of the reorganization described in Note B below, transfers to
         ownership interests in land, property and equipment are made from
         Partnership to NOREP as costs are incurred. The transfers are recorded
         at cost.

         The partners of the Partnership and NOREP are North Oaks Properties,
         Inc. (NOPI), (62.5%) and The Mullan-North Oaks Limited Partnership
         (MNOLP), (37.5%).

         NOREP was organized by the Partnership solely for the purpose of owning
         the property and buildings and other improvements thereon that
         constitute the Project, in order to minimize certain mortgage
         recordation taxes. The publicity traded debt is a direct obligation of
         the Partnership, and is guaranteed by NOREP. The guaranty, however, is
         not intended to provide additional security for payment of the
         principal and interest than if the Partnership directly held the
         property and related improvements itself. The Partners of NOREP own no
         other assets than their interest in the Partnership. NOREP and the
         Partnership have executed an Operating and Use Agreement which
         obligated the Partnership to develop, operate and manage the Project at
         its expense and which grants the Partnership use of the property until
         dissolution, liquidation, and do not have independent operating
         activities. Therefore, management believes that, because of the
         guarantee and the Operating and Use Agreement, the combining of
         financial statements of the Partnership and NOREP are the most
         informative, and best portrays the relationship between the two
         entities.

B.       Reorganization

         In August, 1989, the Partnership transferred its ownership interests in
         land and construction in progress to its Partners who then transferred
         such ownership to NOREP.

C.       Income Taxes

         Income and losses of the partnership are included in the income tax
         returns of the partners. Accordingly, the financial statements make no
         provision for income taxes.

D.       Transactions with Partners

         The nonrefundable admission fees to be paid under the Residency
         Agreements for compensation of the owners' and developer's risk in
         connection with the Project have been assigned to the Partners by the
         Partnership. The Partners have agreed to make capital contributions to
         the Partnership equal to the admission fees assigned to them. Admission
         fees of $225,690 and $341,230 have been assigned to the Partners during
         the nine months ended September 30, 1997, and September 30, 1996,
         respectively, and contributed to the Partnership. In addition,
         purchases of property and equipment of $177,018 and $180,013 have been
         distributed by the Partnership to the partners and contributed by the
         partners to NOREP for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and
         September 30, 1996 respectively.

E.       Transactions with Affiliates

         Life Care Services Corporation (LCS), affiliate of NOPI, receives a
         management fee of 5% of the total revenues of operation of the Project
         from the partnership. Such fee is paid by the residents as part of
         their monthly service fee. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997
         and 1996, the management fee was $211,444 and $205,216 respectively.

F.       Commitments and Contingencies

         The realization of the costs of the Project is contingent upon
         sustained adequate occupancy of the Project and its operation in a cost
         effective manner.

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

Overall Financial Condition

The Project contains a total of 182 residential apartment units. The health care
center contains 37 comprehensive care beds and 12 domiciliary care units. As of
September 30, 1997, 179 apartment units, 32 comprehensive care beds, and 12
domiciliary care units were occupied. During the nine months ended September 30,
1997, apartment occupancy increased ten units, from 169 units to 179 units.

During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, 19 apartments became available
due to death, permanent assignment to the health center, or move-outs. In 1996,
during the nine months ended September 30, 22 apartments became available. Also
during the first nine months of 1997, 26 sales occurred, compared to 28 sales in
the same time period in 1996.

Sales efforts resulted in average occupancy being maintained at 95.6% during the
nine months ended September 30, 1997. During the nine months ended September 30,
1996, an average of 91% of the units were occupied.

Effective January 1, 1997, the monthly service fees for apartments increased
approximately 3.9%, and for the health center, approximately 4.1%. Effective
July 1, 1997, the Entrance Fees increased approximately 2%; this increase is the
first such increase in several years and reflects market demand.

Results Of Operations

On January 1, 1997, a 3.9% increase was implemented for the apartment service
fees. During the first nine months of 1997, average occupancy was approximately
96%, compared to an average occupancy of approximately 92% in the same time
period in 1996. These two factors, net of a decline of approximately 1% in
second person fees, are the reasons why apartment service fee revenues increased
in the nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared to the same time period in
1996.

Health Center revenues increased because of four factors - an increase in the
monthly service fees of 4.1%, an increase in the private pay patients, a
substantial increased occupancy by patients reimbursed by the Medicare program,
and a decline of the number of days used by residents permanently assigned to
the Health Center.

Revenue from non-refundable entrance fees declined because of an increase in the
number of Traditional Plan Residency Agreements being executed. Residents
entering into a Traditional Plan Residency Agreement make a payment of Entrance
Costs to the Community in lieu of an Entrance Loan. The total of the Entrance
Cost amount, which is refunded, amortizes to zero over an approximate 48-month
period. Consequently, the total non-refundable portion of the Admission Fee is
lower than under a Return of Capital Residency Agreement. Management placed more
emphasis in 1997 on maintaining and improving occupancy (and therefore operating
revenue) than on realizing more initial cash upon entry to the community. No
further Traditional Plan Residency Agreements are being offered; however, the
economic impact on revenues dedicated to partners will be evident for several
more quarters.

Operating expenses increased approximately 7% in 1997 over 1996 expenditures,
excluding depreciation and amortization. Although occupancy increased 4%, while
staffing increased approximately 5%, the increase in staffing is more reflective
of increased resident services and unstaffed positions in the prior year. In
addition, operating costs increased approximately 3% to 4%. Dietary expenditures
increased significantly due to increased number of meals served as a result of
increased occupancy, expanded food program to compensate for uncompleted dining
room expansion and renovation, and normal increased food costs.

Overall, the net income from operations improved to $155,586 in 1997 compared to
$106,854 in 1996. This improvement, together with an increase in interest income
and decrease in interest expense (because $150,000 less of mortgage bonds are
outstanding currently than one year ago), resulted in a loss for the nine months
of $802,612 compared to a loss of $948,860 at September 30, 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, as compared to the same time
period in 1996:

*        Net cash used by operating activities declined approximately $883,000.
         Most of the change is attributable to: (1) an increase in accounts
         receivable in 1996 used $717,000, whereas a decline in accounts
         receivable in 1997 provided $13,000 - $730,000 net decline; and (2)
         payables increased providing approximately $97,000 more cash and
         contributing to the decline in usage of cash in 1997 compared to 1996.

*        Net cash used by investment activities increased approximately $242,000
         as cash balances held in escrow did not increase due to a decline in
         permanent assignments to the Health Center.

*        Net cash provided by financing activities declined by approximately
         $315,000. The increase in loans from residents in 1997 was $432,000
         less than in 1996 due to the number of apartment units being closed
         under the Traditional Plan Residency Agreement. In 1997, although there
         continued to be increased occupancy, the increase occurred primarily
         due to Traditional Plan Residency Agreements being executed by new
         residents rather than Return of Capital Plans.

Residents, upon occupancy, make loans to the Partnership. The loans from
residents totaled $26,547,293 at September 30, 1997, and were initially used to
retire the Construction Loan.

Subsequent to June 30, 1993, loans from residents are being used to pay the
accumulated obligations to LCS. LCS provided Construction Loan security and per
agreement with the Partnership, provided funding to the Partnership to meet
needs in excess of available Construction Loan and Bond proceeds, until
substantial completion of the Project was attained in May 1991. The Partnership
Agreement provided that in the event the Partners are unable to obtain any
additional required financing for the Partnership from other sources, each of
the Partners shall make available, when and as determined by the Partners, funds
required by the Partnership.

The Partners were not required to make any advances during the nine months ended
September 30, 1997. Attrition receipts were sufficient to cover the operating
cash shortfall after debt service.

During the next six months, the partners anticipate expending approximately
$250,000 for renovation and refurbishing of the dining room. It is anticipated
that there are sufficient cash balances on hand to pay for these costs.

For 1997 and 1996, the Partners have agreed to contribute an amount equal to the
projected excess resident related operating expenditures over resident related
operating revenues.

The long-term success of the Project is dependent upon the marketing of the
unoccupied units and of enough units to minimize the time a unit is vacant.
Maintenance of adequate levels of occupancy and efficient and effective
operation of the Project are critical to the long-term success of the Project.
