                                    BUSINESS
                                    --------

INTRODUCTION
- ------------

        TMP Land Mortgage Fund, Ltd., is a California Limited Partnership formed
in April, 1992, of which TMP Investments, Inc., a California corporation, and
TMP Properties, a California general Partnership, are the General Partners (the
"General Partners").The Partnership was formed principally to make short-term
loans to unaffiliated parties secured by first trust deeds on unimproved
properties, primarily in the Inland Empire area of Southern California, and to
provide cash distributions on a current basis to the Limited Partners, primarily
from interest earned on the mortgage loans. The Partnership is not a mutual fund
or any other type of investment company within the meaning of, and is not
subject to regulations under, the Investment Company Act of 1940. As of December
31, 1997, twelve loans had been made by the Partnership.

        Beginning April 22, 1992, the Partnership was engaged in the offering of
up to 20,000 units of limited Partnership Units ("Units") at a purchase price of
$1000 per Unit pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11. On April 22,
1994, the Partnership had received and accepted subscriptions of 15,715 Units,
representing total subscription proceeds in the amount of $15,715,000, and the
offering was closed. Upon the conclusion of the offering, all of the
subscription proceeds had been committed to the mortgage loan investments
described below and working capital reserves.

        The Partnership was organized to originate and make loans secured by
first deeds of trust (commonly known as "mortgages") on unimproved real
properties primarily in the Inland Empire area of Southern California, which is
located approximately 60 miles east of the city of Los Angeles and 40 miles
north of the City of San Diego. Twelve loans were made for terms of between 6
months and 36 months. The Partnership does not intend to make any further loans
other than those described below. Each loan was made to an unaffiliated borrower
who (i) paid a fee or "points" to obtain the loan, (ii) established a reserve
that would secure the payment of the interest for the interim term of the loan,
and (iii) was to pay the entire principal amount of the loan in one lump sum
payment, commonly referred to as a "balloon" payment, at the end of the loan
term. Each loan was made to an unaffiliated borrower who (i) used the proceeds
of the loan to purchase or refinance a property the General Partners believe has
development potential; (ii) "predevelop" the property by obtaining zoning and
other governmental approvals needed to permit construction of single or
multi-family residences or commercial buildings on the property ("predevelopment
work") and (iii) on completion of the predevelopment work, will either sell the
property to developers or contractors or obtain new financing on the property.

        It was intended that the Partnership's loans would be repaid from the
proceeds either of the sale or a refinancing of the property by the borrower.
The Partnership does not participate in any profit that the borrower may realize
on the sale or refinancing of the property. Instead, the Partnership would
receive from the proceeds of the sale or refinancing, the principal amount of
the Partnership's loan and any interest that had been earned, but not paid,
through the date of sale or refinancing.

        As a consequence of adverse changes in market conditions and other
factors, nine of the twelve loans made by the Partnership to date have been
foreclosed upon. In the event of foreclosure, the property securing the loan is
put up for public sale approximately four to six months after initiation of
foreclosure proceedings and is sold to the highest bidder. The sales proceeds
then are paid to the first mortgagee, which would be the Partnership, until the
principal amount of its loan, earned but unpaid interest, and foreclosure costs
are repaid. Any surplus then remaining is paid to the borrower. If no one offers
a cash price sufficient to enable the Partnership to recover 
its investment, the Partnership, as first mortgagee, is entitled to acquire the
property in exchange for cancellation of the amounts owned by the borrower. In
that event, the General Partners' strategy is to complete any predevelopment
work not completed by the Borrower and to attempt to sell the property for a
price that would at least enable the Partnership to recover 
<PAGE>   3
its investment in the property. To date, the Partnership has acquired each of
the properties on which it has foreclosed.

        The Partnership's investment in a foreclosed property generally consists
of all amounts owing by the borrower to the Partnership that were secured by the
Partnership's mortgage at the time it acquired the property, the amounts
expended to acquire and then to complete predevelopment of the property and,
unless paid out of the gross proceeds of sale, any expenses incurred to sell the
property. Any cash proceeds in excess of the investment will be distributed to
the Partners.

        The Partnership will be terminated as soon as practicable following
liquidation of the Partnership assets and distributions of cash to the Partners.
However, the Partnership will not be terminated until mortgage loans made by it
have been repaid and all properties and other assets owned by it have been sold
and payment of the purchase price for those assets is received or converted into
cash. At this time, it is unlikely that the Partnership will be terminated
within the next twelve months.

        DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL OF UNDERLYING PROPERTIES. The Partnership made
loans to borrowers seeking to acquire or refinance, predevelop and then sell,
undeveloped properties in the Inland Empire to developers and contractors. In
most cases, the repayment of the Partnership's loans will depend on the ability
of the borrower (or the Partnership if a foreclosure occurs) to sell or
refinance the property after predevelopment work is completed. Accordingly, one
of the critical factors that affect the ability of the Partnership to achieve
its investment objectives is the potential value and salability of the
properties which secure repayment of the Partnership's loans or which the
Partnership has acquired through foreclosure.

        Each loan made by the Partnership is secured by a first mortgage. In the
event of a foreclosure sale, if the property is sold for at least the amount
owed to the Partnership, the entire sales proceeds must be paid to the
Partnership, as first mortgagee, before any proceeds may be paid to anyone else.
If there are no other purchasers, or the other purchase offers made at the
foreclosure sale are not sufficient to pay off the amounts owed to the
Partnership, as first mortgagee the Partnership is entitled to acquire the
property in exchange for cancellation of the amounts owed by the borrower. Under
applicable laws, on any such acquisition, any other mortgages, liens or
encumbrances on the property will be automatically terminated and the
Partnership will own the property free and clear and will have no payment
obligations thereafter, other than (i) the costs of completing any
predevelopment work not completed by the borrower; and (ii) property taxes that
are assessed against the property after the Partnership's acquisition of the
property; and (iii) in some instances special assessment district taxes which
are assessed against the property.

        There may be circumstances in which, despite a default, the General
Partners will choose not to initiate foreclosure proceedings immediately. For
example, there may be ongoing sales negotiations or a refinancing may be in
process that would be disrupted by the initiation of foreclosure proceeding or
the General Partners may conclude that the borrower-owner is better able to
complete predevelopment and to sell the property than the Partnership. There
also may be instances in which the General Partners choose not to purchase a
property at the foreclosure sale, even though the Partnership might sustain a
partial or even total loss of the investment on the loan. For example, it may be
preferable to accept a cash purchase offer for the property which is less than
the amount owed on the loan, but which would enable the Partnership to recover
immediately, in cash, the substantial portion of its investment in the loan.
There could also be circumstances in which environmental problems on a property
discovered after loan is made, would make it prudent for the Partnership not to
acquire a property. However, the General Partners believe such a circumstance
would be a rare occurrence.

        POSSIBLE CHANGES IN MORTGAGE LOAN POLICIES. The General Partners reserve
the right, without the consent of the Limited Partners, to alter the proposed
policies for mortgage investments to the extent that the General Partners
believe that variation from the policies will be in the best interests of the
Partnership.

                    EXPANSION OF PRIMARY BUSINESS OBJECTIVES
                    ----------------------------------------

        To offset the potential for loss on the resale of the properties taken
back in foreclosure, the General Partners, in December of 1995, determined that
it would be in the best interest of the Partnership to use Partnership reserves
to engage in a joint venture with an unrelated company, Steadfast HSC, LLC, to
acquire the Hollywood Studio Club Apartments ("HSC"), a 243 unit apartment
complex in Hollywood, California for $6,325,000. In March 1997, HSC was sold for
$8,600,000. Based on an investment of $854,474, the Partnership received a
preferential return of approximately $168,000 and profits of approximately
$489,000.

                            MORTGAGE LOAN INVESTMENTS
                            -------------------------

        As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership had made twelve mortgage loans.
The status of such loans and other relevant information are summarized below.

PR EQUITIES, LTD. LOANS
- -----------------------

        The Partnership made two loans ("Loan 1" and "Loan 2") to PR Equities,
Ltd., a California limited partnership. The loans were secured by first trust
deeds on property under predevelopment in San Jacinto, Riverside County,
California. Loan 1 was secured by a first deed of trust on 304 tentative map
lots in 5 separate tracts in Phase II of the Rancho San Jacinto master-planned
community located in the City of San Jacinto, California. Phase 1, consisting of
six parcels and 797 single family dwelling lots, was sold to merchant builders.
Loan 2 was secured by a first deed of trust on two tracts containing 148
tentative map lots which also are part of Phase II of the Rancho San Jacinto
master-planned community. These properties received approval of tentative tract
maps which, upon final approval, would divide them into lots suitable for
construction of single family residences. All of the properties are located east
of Hewitt Street and north of Washington Avenue in San Jacinto, Riverside
County, in Southern California.

        The Partnership foreclosed on the property securing these loans during
1995 and now owns the property. The current outstanding payments due as a result
of the Mello-Roos tax assessment against the Partnership's lots taken back in
foreclosure is over $2,000,000. This debt, plus the continuing tax accrual makes
the property unsaleable in the current real estate market. The City of San
Jacinto received the overall appraisal of the properties in the CFD during the
first week of July. The low land values reflected in the appraisal confirmed the
General Partners opinion that the bonds should be restructured, the overall
bonded indebtedness and the annual debt service should be reduced. A meeting was
held in September with the property owners and the bond holders, and as a result
of this meeting, the City of Rancho San Jacinto has hired an independent bond
advisor to negotiate the restructuring terms with the bond holders. The City
Council of Rancho San Jacinto is attempting to include the current home owners
with the land owners and developers in the negotiations for the proposed bond
reduction and restructuring. Based on the outcome of the negotiations, the
General Partners will make a definitive decision on whether to proceed with a
program to build homes on the property.

        While the General Partners are pursuing these options, the City has been
forced by the terms of the bonds to schedule a sale of the property for
delinquent bond assessments. This sale requires the buyer to pay the full unpaid
assessment, penalties, interest and assume the full amount of the remaining
assessment and make all future payments as they come due. The cost of completion
of the lots, if added to remaining unpaid assessment, exceeds what the market
will bear today. For that reason, the General Partners do not expect to see
anyone offer to buy at the sale. The General Partners plan to redeem the 92 lots
if it appears that someone else may buy the property.

        The General Partners anticipate that construction of homes on a portion
of the property will make the remainder of the property more attractive to other
builders.

FRAME LOAN
- ----------

        The Partnership made a third loan ("Loan 3") to Richard D. Frame, an
individual. Loan 3 was secured by a first trust deed to property under
predevelopment in Temecula, Riverside County, California. This loan matured on
February 8, 1994. The loan was extended to April 20, 1994, at which time the
Partnership received payment in full. Part of the proceeds were reloaned in the
Peppertree and Rockfield loans. The balance was added to Partnership reserves.

SUNSET CROSSING LOAN
- --------------------

        The Partnership made their fourth loan ("Loan 4") to Sunset Crossing I,
a California Limited partnership. Loan 4 was secured by a first trust deed to
property under predevelopment in Banning, Riverside County, California. In
August of 1994, this loan defaulted.

        The property now owned by the Partnership through the default on Loan 4
is located at the southwest corner of the intersection of Interstate Freeway 10
and Sunset Avenue in Banning, Riverside County, California. The property
consists of 42.47 acres; five acres are currently zoned commercial and the
balance is industrial.

        Since the Partnership foreclosed on the property in August of 1994, the
General Partners have contacted Wal-Mart, the City of Banning, and two Wal-Mart
Shopping Center Developers to determine the extent of continued interest in the
property. TMP Land Mortgage Fund is trying to have the City extend the Sales Tax
Revenue Sharing measure adopted when the loan was made, in the hope that
Wal-Mart will acquire and develop part of the property. The General Partners
have been told that Wal-Mart believes the property will not be ready for
development for another 12 -18 months in light of current market conditions, but
indicates that it remains interested in the property.

FOX-OLSON LOAN
- --------------

        The Partnership's fifth loan ("Loan 5") was made to Marilyn Fox-Olson,
an individual. Loan 5 is secured by a first deed of trust on 10.84 acres of land
in Sun City/Menifee Valley, Riverside County.

        Loan 5 was secured by a first trust deed to 10.84 acres of commercially
zoned land at the northeast corner of Newport Road and Bradley Road in the
unincorporated area of Riverside County known as Sun City/Menifee Valley. The
property is well-suited for a shopping center with a supermarket anchor and a
corner pad for either a gas station or a fast food restaurant. The Borrower has
such a site plan approved by the Riverside County Planning Commission, but that
approval has now expired. The intersection of Newport and Bradley Roads is
controlled by a traffic signal and is about a mile west of the I-215 Freeway.

        Adjacent to the south of the subject property is a large proposed
mixed-use project with an approved Specific Plan called Menifee Meadows. That
project, if built, will include condominiums, apartments, single-family
residences, an office park, retail center, and parks. A new elementary school
was opened there in 1991.

        The current zoning for the subject property is C-1/C-P (General retail
and commercial). The soils report is favorable for development. No faults exist
on or near the property. The site has about 389 feet of frontage on Newport
Road, for which the County has formed an assessment district to widen and
improve to six lanes of traffic to accommodate the current and future traffic.
Newport Road will be a major east-west arterial road connecting the I-15 and
I-215 Freeways. A Phase 1 Environmental (toxic) study was performed by a
qualified engineer and the site is clean of hazardous wastes. The site is
vacant, raw land that has never been developed. The topography is level, with a
very gentle slope down to the north. All utilities are available to the site.
<PAGE>   6
        The Partnership took title to this property in November of 1994. The
property is listed for sale at $1,550,000.

ENVIRONMENTAL DEVELOPMENT, LTD.
- -------------------------------

        The Partnership's sixth loan ("Loan 6") was to Environmental
Development, Ltd., a California Limited Partnership. Loan 6 was secured by a
first trust deed to property under predevelopment in San Diego, California.

        The Borrower defaulted on the loan in October of 1994. An extension
agreement was signed by Borrower, wherein the Partnership agreed to extend the
term of the loan to May 1, 1995. Borrower was to make all monthly interest
payments, with points and servicing fees added to the principal of the loan.
However, on March 1, 1995, the Borrower defaulted in the payment of interest
due, and the Partnership filed of Notice of Default and subsequently accepted
Deed in Lieu of foreclosure on the property and now holds title to the property.

        This property is approximately 52 acres of residentially zoned land at
the southeast quadrant of State Route 905 and Interstate 805 Freeways in the
Otay Mesa area of the City of San Diego. The existing zoning is A1-10 (0-5 units
per acre). The topography is gentle to moderate slopes, mostly southwest facing,
providing distant (approximately 5 miles) white water views of the Pacific
Ocean, San Diego Bay, and the San Diego downtown skyline. The site is only three
miles north of the Mexican border crossing a San Ysidro.

        The 52 acres are a portion of the 78.3 acre Remington Hills Precise
Plan, designed for low to moderate priced single-family homes, with no
multi-family or commercial. The Precise Plan and tentative map has been
processed and approved. An Environmental Impact Report is required, with most of
the studies completed. Sewer and water is within 200 feet of the site, with
adequate capacity. Natural gas and electricity are also available. The subject
52 acre portion of Remington Hills is designed so it can be developed first and
stand alone from the remaining portion. The Environmental Impact Report was
approved in 1995.

        The tentative map for 181 lots was approved on July 18, 1995, after 5
years of processing. The General Partners have determined that construction of
homes will achieve the highest return to the Partnership. The determination is
based in part on the results of a market feasibility study commissioned by the
Partnership for The Meyers Group, and also in part on the terms of a Joint
Venture Agreement with TMP Homes that will direct the major portion of all sales
proceeds and profits to the Partnership. A Joint Venture has been formed and
actual construction is expected to commence in early 1998.

FOX-OLSON LOAN #2
- -----------------

        On June 17, 1993, the Partnership funded it seventh mortgage loan,
("Loan 7") to Marilyn Fox-Olson. Loan #7 was funded on June 17, 1993 and was due
on December 17, 1994. At that time, the Borrower went into default and the
Partnership initiated foreclosure proceedings. Title to this property reverted
to the Partnership on March 29, 1995. The General Partners are making every
effort to market this property and have been approached by several investors
expressing interest in acquiring this property.

        Loan #7 is secured by a first deed of trust on 45 lots of residential
land and a 1.84 acre commercial site located in Menifee, California. The
Partnership, together with TMP Homes, has formed a Joint Venture to build homes
on this site, with the major portion of the profit from the sale of the homes
going to the Partnership. TMP Homes is attempting to procure a construction loan
for the project.
<PAGE>   7
SINGLETARY LOAN
- ---------------

        On October 12, 1993, the Partnership funded it eighth mortgage loan
("Loan 8"). The loan was secured by a first deed of trust on 96 acres of
industrial/commercial land located in the unincorporated area of Riverside
County known as Rubidoux. The loan came due on April 12, 1995. The borrower
sought to extend the loan, and did pay extension fees and additional interest
for several months. However, the Partnership was forced to file a Notice of
Default when the borrower ceased making payments. The Borrower filed for
personal bankruptcy in order to forestall foreclosure proceedings. After months
of negotiations, the borrower was able to procure additional financing and paid
the loan in full, with all interest owing, on December 13, 1995. This allowed
for a distribution of $2,200,000 to all limited partners.

LAMONTE LOAN
- ------------

        On October 25, 1993 the Partnership funded its ninth loan ("Loan 9")
secured by a first deed of trust on 6.54 acres of commercial land located in the
City of Simi Valley, County of Ventura, California.

        This loan bore an interest rate of 12.5%. To facilitate payment,
Borrower deposited an amount equal to twelve months interest due on the loan in
a segregated bank account at Frontier Bank, La Palma, California. This
represents the last twelve months interest. The first six months of interest was
paid by Ventura Pacific Capital Group, a developer who has an Option Agreement
and Ground Lease Agreement with the LaMontes on the subject property. Ventura
Pacific was paying Mr. and Mrs. LaMonte $18,400 per month the ground lease. The
monthly payment on the loan from the Borrowers is $12,708 and Ventura Pacific
paid that portion of the Ground Lease directly to the Partnership for the first
six months of the loan term.

        The principal amount of the Loan matured on April 25, 1995. After the
Partnership filed a Notice of Default, the borrower transferred the property to
a wholly owned corporation and had the corporation file a Chapter 11 proceeding
to delay a foreclosure. The Partnership succeeding in having the Bankruptcy
Court remove the stay after a contestual Law and Motion Proceeding. The borrower
then filed a state court action asking the court for a temporary injunction
based on alleged irregularities during the foreclosure process. The Partnership
acquired the property through foreclosure in April 1996.

        Loan 9 is secured by a first trust deed to 6.54 acres in the City of
Simi Valley, County of Ventura, California. The property is part of the Royal
Madeira Specific Plan area that consists of approximately 29.1 gross acres of
undeveloped land. The property is zoned commercial/recreational (C-R) which
allows for limited commercial uses that provide for the development of
recreational, entertainment and associated retail and service activities.

        Ventura Pacific Capital Group VIII, a California Limited Partnership,
has proposed to develop the property in conjunction with the adjacent 6.8 acres
which Ventura Pacific Capital Group currently owns. To that end, significant
engineering and other entitlement work has been completed which includes an
approved development plan for a recreational facility, including an ice rink,
and also for an Albertsons Grocery store, Sav-On Drug and related shop space
users. the previous debtor is attempting, through litigation, to set aside the
foreclosure. The judge has refused to dismiss the petition filed by the General
Partners to remove the lis pendens and end the lawsuit. A cash offer to purchase
the property was received from Lucky's Food Stores in the amount of $1.6
million. Acceptance is delayed until clear title can be achieved.

GREGORY P. LANSING AND JANICE A. LANSING, TTEES OF THE GPLJAL FAMILY TRUST
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

        On March 23, 1994, the Partnership funded it tenth loan ("Loan 10")
secured by a first deed of trust on 28.42 acres of land located in the City of
Murietta, County of Riverside, California.

        The collateral for this Loan was approximately 28.42 acres of
commercially zoned land at the northwest corner of Murietta Hot Springs Road and
Jefferson Avenue in the City of Murietta in the western part of Riverside
County, California.

        The loan was repaid on September 5, 1995. Proceeds were added to cash
reserves of the Partnership.

ROCKFIELD LOAN
- --------------

        On June 1, 1994, the Partnership funded its eleventh loan, ("Loan 11")
secured by a first deed of trust on 41 residential lots in Rancho Cucamonga,
County of Riverside, California.

        This loan was in participation with TMP Mortgage Income Plus, Ltd., a
private syndication of which TMP Investments, Inc. and TMP Properties also serve
as General Partners. The total loan of $250,000 was funded $100,000 by TMP Land
Mortgage Fund, Ltd. and $150,000 by TMP Mortgage Income Plus, Ltd.

        The principal amount of the Loan was due and payable in a lump sum or
"balloon" payment on March 1, 1995. After several extensions of the due date,
the Borrower defaulted and the property was foreclosed on January 15, 1996. the
Partnership has sold it interest in the property to TMP Mortgage Income Plus,
Ltd. for the amount of its participation in the loan, as well as monies which
the Partnership has advanced to pursue development of this property. TMP
Mortgage Income Plus, Ltd. has entered into a joint venture with TMP Homes to
build homes on the 29 lots that secured this loan.

PEPPERTREE LAND COMPANY LOAN
- ----------------------------

        On June 28, 1994, the Partnership funded it twelfth loan, ("Loan 12")
secured by a first deed of trust on 193 single family residential lots and a
third trust deed on 73 single family residential lots and 15 acres
office/professional use land in Fallbrook, San Diego County, California.

        The principal amount of the Loan is due and payable, in a lump sum
payment 12 months from the date of the funding of the loan, which was June 28,
1995. However, the loan agreement called for an extension of an additional 6
months by written notice to the Lender within 30 days of the due date of the
Note. The interest impound was for the full 18 months and provided that should
the borrower repay the loan within the 12 month period, all unused interest
should be returned to Borrower.

        The collateral for this loan is a First Trust Deed on 193 single family
residential lots; and a third Trust Deed on 73 single family residential lots
and a Third Trust Deed on approximately 15 acres of office/professional use land
in Fallbrook, California.

        The property is known as Peppertree Park, which has been entitled with
an approved General Plan Amendment, Specific Plan, Tentative Map and a major Use
Permit for the following uses:

     (1)    Residential              (104 single family lots) 

     (2)    Office/Professional      (14.88 acres) 

     (3)    Retail Commercial        (sold to Vons on October 7, 1993) 

     (4)    On-site amenities        (lake, park and hiking trails)
<PAGE>   9
        The property which is securing the Loan made by the Partnership is
residential and office/professional land. It is expected that property taxes on
the land will be approximately $30,000 annually. Infrastructure and grading is
proceeding and home construction could begin in mid 1997.

        The borrower has completed the engineering for Phase 1 of Unit 1 and
Phase II and is currently seeking construction financing to repay the
Partnership loan. The loan matured on December 28, 1995. However, the borrower
has requested a 90 day extension with additional interest and mortgage servicing
fees. The Partnership received $1,500,000 in cash as a repayment, and retains a
$500,000 interest in the property as an investor from which the Partnership will
receive a participation in profits from the development of single family homes.

                                -----------------

        The Partnership has been named as a defendant in two lawsuits by Albert
and Helen LaMonte, Borrowers in Loan #9, referred to above, and by Southpointe
Corporation, their shell corporation utilized to take title to the property and
file bankruptcy proceedings under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Court.

        One lawsuit alleges conspiracy and fraud on behalf of the Partnership.
The General Partners believe the suit to be frivolous filed solely for the
purpose of delaying the foreclosure sale.

        The other lawsuit is attempting to set aside the foreclosure that
occurred in April 1996. The General Partners believe the suit to be frivolous as
well. Both lawsuits are filed in the County of Ventura and are state court cases
This suit is set to go to trial April 7, 1997.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

        During the period from inception (November 15, 1991) through April 22,
1994, the Partnership was engaged in the formation of the Partnership, the sale
of Units of Limited partnership Interest and the investment of the subscription
proceeds in mortgage loan investments. On April 22, 1994, the offering and sale
of limited Partnership units ceased. As of April 22, 1994, a total of 15,715
Units had been sold by the Partnership for total proceeds of $15,715,000. Excess
proceeds from the sale of units were invested in interest-bearing reserve
accounts. During 1995, the revenues received were interest income earned on
mortgage loans and interest income earned on funds held in reserve. During 1996,
the Partnership received approximately $146,000 of revenues from the investment
in a 243 unit apartment complex in addition to the above revenue sums. During
1997, the Partnership received revenues from the sale of investment and land
totaling $1,026,850.

        The Partnership was formed principally to make short-term loans to
unaffiliated parties secured by first trust deeds on unimproved properties,
primarily in the Inland Empire area of Southern California. As of December 31,
1996, twelve loans had been made by the Partnership. Three loans had been repaid
and seven loans had defaulted and the Partnership had repossessed the property.
See "Item 1 - Business" subcaption "Mortgage Loan Investments."
<PAGE>   11
        As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership had cash on hand of $786,576.
All other proceed from the offering had been invested in Loans or working
capital reserves, or had been used in foreclosure proceeds or maintaining the
foreclosed properties for the Partnership. Also during December, 1996, the
Partnership invested $854,474 in a 243-unit apartment complex in the Los Angeles
area which, was sold in 1997 for a profit of $521,110,as well as investments in
five single family developments in the Southern California area.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

        From inception to December 31, 1997, the Partnership received a total of
$15,715,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of limited partnership units. During
the period from inception through December 31, 1997, the Partnership made a
total of twelve mortgage loans for a total expenditure of $15,615,000. Three
loans, in the total amount of $4,825,000 was repaid during the fiscal year
ending December 31, 1995.

        The Partnership raised a total of $8,334,000, $6,127,000, and $1,254,000
during the calender years ended December 31, 1992, 1993, and 1994, respectively.
The offering was closed on April 22, 1994 and no additional subscriptions were
accepted after that date.

        The Partnership made loans of $4,870,000, $7,420,000, and $2,725,000
during the calender years ended December 31, 1992, 1993, and 1994, respectively.
Of the twelve loans made, nine loans totaling $10,190,000 were foreclosed upon
and three loans totaling $4,825,000 were repaid. Proceeds from loan repayments
were either reinvested, added to Partnership reserves, or distributed to
investors.

        The Partnership does not intend to make any new land loans with existing
or future Partnership cash. At December 31, 1997, the Partnership had
development agreements with TMP Homes, an affiliated company, to develop single
family homes on three of the properties the Partnership has acquired through
foreclosure. In addition, the Partnership had a $500,000 investment in a single
family development that resulted from the Peppertree loan. The Partnership was
repaid $1,500,000 of the $2,000,000 loan in cash with the remaining $500,000 as
an investment in the project. The Partnership may incur indebtedness from
nonaffiliated financial institutions in order to complete any development for
projects in which the Partnership is involved.

        The nine loans that were foreclosed upon and are owned by the
Partnership produce no income stream. Accordingly, the Partnership is not making
distributions to investors except from the sale proceeds of Partnership assets.
Partnership cash reserves are being used to fund the operating cash needs of the
Partnership. As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership had sufficient cash
reserves for the next twelve months. In the event the Partnership needs
additional cash for operations, it may also subject Partnership properties it
has acquired through foreclosure to mortgage indebtedness.

        The two PR Equities properties that were foreclosed upon have
substantial Mello-Roos taxes that the Partnership does not have the cash to pay,
nor is it in the best interest of the Partnership to pay. The General Partners
are attempting to have the Mello-Roos bonds restructured (See Mortgage Loan
Investments section), however, there is no assurance that this can be
accomplished.

        Aside from the foregoing, the Partnership knows of no demands,
commitments, events, or uncertainties which might affect its liquidity or
capital resources in any material way.

</TABLE>

(1)     The amount of the Broker Loan Fees to be received by TMP Realty will
        depend on (i) the dollar amount of Units sold in this offering; (ii) the
        duration or term of the loans made by the Partnership; and (iii) market
        conditions which will affect the points that can be charged. Based on
        the assumptions that $20,000,000 of Units are sold, the duration of all
        of the loans is 36 months, and the points charged are equal to 1/2% of
        the loan amount per month, on the Initial Funding of Loans TMP Realty
        would receive points of $3,528,000. However, TMP Realty will pay
        $1,500,000 of that amount as Selling Commissions and due diligence fees,
        and approximately $125,000 for Organization and Offering Expenses, which
        would result in compensation to TMP Realty of $1,903,000 or about 9.5%
        of the Gross Proceeds of the Offering. On the next $11,200,000 of loans
        made, after payment of the remaining Selling Commissions, TMP Realty
        would retain Broker Loan Fees of $1,008,000, assuming all such Loans are
        made for 36 month terms. However, based on their experience, the General
        Partners believe that most loans will be made for 12-to-24 month terms
        and, therefore, on the Initial Funding of Loans, the points that would
        be paid and TMP Realty's compensation would be substantially lower (see
        note (2) below). If only $1,000,000 of Units are sold, assuming loans
        are made for 36 month terms and points of 1/2% per month are paid, TMP
        Realty would receive points aggregating $176,400 on the Initial Funding
        of Loans, but would be obligated to pay Selling Commissions and
        Organization and Offering Expenses aggregating approximately $200,000.

(2)     Based on the experience and knowledge of the market conditions, the
        General Partners do not believe it to be a realistic assumption that all
        loans will be of 36 months' duration. Land loans most often are made for
        periods ranging from 12-to-24 months and the General Partners believe
        that the term of the loans will average about 18 months. If the
        Partnership were funded at $20,000,000 in Gross Proceeds, and assuming
        the term of the loans made averages 18 months, resulting in the payment
        by borrowers of an average of 9 points, the Partnership would not
        participate in the points paid on the first $19,600,000 of loans made.
        Such points would total $1,764,000, would be used by TMP Realty to pay
        Selling Commissions, due diligence fees and Organization and other
        Offering Expenses. The Partnership would receive 25%, or approximately
        $600,000, of the points (or a total of approximately $2,400,000) on

<PAGE>   18

        approximately the next $26,667,000 of loans made (with repaid principal
        or by loan extensions); and would receive at least 50% of points on all
        loans made thereafter.

(3)     Points, like interest, represent a cost to the borrower for a loan. As a
        result, it may be possible to obtain more points from borrowers by
        decreasing the rate of interest charged on a loan. An increase in points
        in exchange for a reduction in interest rates would increase the
        compensation that would be received by TMP Realty. For this reason, the
        General Partners have placed a ceiling on the points that may be charged
        on loans at 1/2% per month, which is comparable to the points charged by
        other mortgage lenders on similar loans being made in Southern
        California. In addition, borrowers ordinarily will resist increases in
        points because points must be paid in advance; however, for tax
        purposes, points may not be deducted when paid. Finally, to compete with
        other mortgage lenders the Partnership will have to keep its mortgage
        terms, including points, in line with those offered by other mortgage
        lenders.

(4)     A Limited Partner's Adjusted Capital Contribution is the amount the
        Limited Partner paid for his or her Units, reduced by any cash
        distributions the source of which is other than interest or fees on
        loans made by the Partnership. See Item 1, "BUSINESS", subcaption
        "Distributions, Net Income and Net Loss".

                          ----------------------------


To the Partners
TMP Land Mortgage Fund, Ltd.
A California Limited Partnership


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of TMP Land Mortgage Fund, Ltd.
(A California Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the
related statements of income, partners' capital and cash flows for the years
ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995. 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 audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of TMP Land Mortgage Fund, Ltd. (A
California Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the
results of its operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1997,
1996 and 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 supplementary information contained
in Schedules I and II is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is
not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, is stated fairly in all material respects in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                          Notes to Financial Statements
                           December 31, 1997 and 1996



Note 1 - Organization and summary of significant accounting policies

         Organization - TMP Land Mortgage Fund, Ltd., A California Limited
         Partnership (the "Partnership"), was formed on November 15, 1991 by TMP
         Properties and TMP Investments, Inc. (collectively referred to as the
         "General Partners"). The purpose of the Partnership is to raise capital
         and make short-term (generally one to three-year) loans to unaffiliated
         persons or entities secured by first trust deeds (mortgages) on
         unimproved real property primarily in the Inland Empire area of
         Southern California, and to provide cash distributions on a current
         basis to the partners, primarily from interest earned on the mortgage
         loans. No mortgage loans will be made with maturities beyond July 31,
         1997; and the general partners intend to cease making loans by January
         31, 1997 and to liquidate the Partnership's assets and dissolve the
         Partnership as soon as practicable thereafter. In accordance with
         certain provisions of the Partnership Agreement (the "Agreement"), the
         Partnership may be dissolved earlier than 1997.

         The General Partners manage and control the affairs of the Partnership,
         including having final approval of all loans and investments, and have
         ultimate authority for matters affecting the interest of the
         Partnership. All organization and offering expenses of the Partnership
         were paid by an affiliate of the General Partners.

         Accounting Method - The Partnership's policy is to prepare its
         financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting.

         Partners' Equity - The Partnership raised capital through a public
         offering of units at $1,000 per unit. The minimum offering size was
         1,000 units or $1,000,000. The maximum offering size was 20,000 units
         or $20,000,000. As of December 31, 1994, 15,715 units were sold for
         total capital contributions of $15,715,000. No contributions were
         accepted after April 21, 1994.

         The partnership agreement provides for two types of investments:
         Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA) and others. The IRA minimum
         purchase requirement is $2,000 and all others are a minimum purchase
         requirement of $5,000. The maximum liability of the limited partners is
         the amount of their capital contribution.

         Allocation of net income and net losses from operations - Net income
         from operations shall generally be allocated 99% to all limited
         partnership units, which will be further allocated among such units on
         a pro rata basis, and 1% to the general partners. Net losses shall be
         allocated to the partners with positive capital accounts, in accordance
         with the ratio of their positive capital account balances, until no
         partner has a positive capital account; and thereafter, net losses will
         be allocated 100% to the general partners.

                          Notes to Financial Statements
                           December 31, 1997 and 1996


Note 1 - Organization and summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

         Allocation of profits and losses on sales of property - Profits and
         losses on sales of property (which would ordinarily be acquired, if at
         all, on foreclosure of a defaulted loan) will be allocated first to the
         limited partners, until they have received a cumulative, non-compounded
         8% per annum return on their adjusted capital contributions and then
         76% to the limited partners and 24% to the general partners. In the
         case of any losses that might be incurred on the sale of foreclosed
         property, such losses will be allocated first to any of the partners,
         whether general or limited, with positive balances in their capital
         accounts, until such time as no general or limited partner has a
         positive balance in his or her capital account. Thereafter, all losses
         on sales of foreclosed property will be allocated to the general
         partners.

         Distributions of cash from operations - Distributions of cash from
         operations, if any, will be made monthly within 30 days after the end
         of each calendar month, and shall be allocated 99% to the limited
         partners and 1% to the general partners. Distributions made during
         1997, 1996 and 1995 are shown on the accompanying statements of
         partners' capital.

         Cash from loan repayments and from sales or refinancing of property -
         Cash from loan repayments and from any sale or financing of a
         foreclosed property that is not reinvested in new mortgage loans or
         retained for operations of the Partnership will be distributed 99% to
         the limited partners and 1% to the general partners until the limited
         partners have received cumulative cash distributions in an aggregate
         amount equal to their capital contributions plus their priority return.
         Thereafter cash from loan repayments and from sales or refinancing will
         be distributed 24% to the general partners and 76% to the limited
         partners. A limited partner's priority return will be equal to a
         cumulative, but not compounded, return of 8% per annum on his or her
         adjusted capital contribution. A limited partner's adjusted capital
         contribution is the amount which the limited partner paid for his or
         her units, reduced by the amount of cash distributed to him or her
         other than cash from operations and cash from loan repayments or sales
         or financing that must be applied to satisfy the limited partners'
         priority return.

         Properties Held for Sale - Properties held for sale consist of
         unimproved land and are stated at the balances of the foreclosed loans
         plus carrying costs incurred since foreclosure. All costs associated
         with the acquisition of a property are capitalized. Additionally, the
         Partnership capitalizes all carrying costs which includes interest
         expense and property taxes. Such costs are added to the cost of the
         properties and are deducted from the sales prices to determine gains
         when properties are sold.

         Income Taxes - No provision for federal income taxes has been made in
         these financial statements as all profit and losses will flow through
         to the respective partners and are recognized on their income tax
         returns. However, the minimum California Franchise tax due by the
         Partnership at December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $800 per year.

                          Notes to Financial Statements
                           December 31, 1997 and 1996




Note 1 - Organization and summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

         Allowance for Losses on Loans - In view of the relationship of the loan
         amounts to market values of the properties mortgaged, there is no
         provision for an allowance for losses on loans. Factors that could be
         considered in establishing the timing and amount of an allowance for
         losses would include the market value of the collateral compared to the
         loan balance, the borrower's ability to repay the loan and prospects
         for selling the collateral.

         Cash and Cash Equivalents - For the purpose of the statements of cash
         flows, the Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with a
         maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
         During the normal course of its business, the Partnership accumulates
         cash and maintains deposits at various banks. Occasionally, the cash
         deposit at a particular bank may exceed the federally insured limit.
         Any accounting loss or cash requirement resulting from the failure of a
         bank would be limited to such excess amounts. Cash deposits in excess
         of the federally insured limits totaled $504,309 and $42,797 at
         December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

         Estimates - In preparing financial statements in conformity with
         generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to
         make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
         assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
         liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and
         expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
         these estimates.

         Concentration - All unimproved land parcels held for sale are located
         in Southern California. The eventual sales price of all parcels is
         highly dependent on the real estate market condition. The Partnership
         attempts to mitigate any potential risk by monitoring the market
         condition and holding the land parcels until the real estate market
         recovers.

Note 2 - Related Party Transactions

         Unaffiliated borrowers paid broker loan placement fees to TMP Realty,
         Inc., an affiliate of the General Partners, of $0, $40,000 and $88,000
         during 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, for assistance in negotiating
         loan terms with the Partnership. TMP Realty, Inc. pays all organization
         and offering expenses, including all legal, accounting, printing,
         registration and other costs. In addition, the borrowers paid loan
         servicing fees to TMP Investments, Inc., a general partner of the
         Partnership, of $10,000 and $33,000 during 1996 and 1995, respectively.
         At December 31, 1995, the partnership owed TMP Investments, Inc.
         $22,000 for loan servicing fees. During 1997 the Partnership paid
         $42,693 to TMP Investments, Inc. for accrued servicing fees on the La
         Monte loan. This payment was included in the cost of sale of the land.

Note 2 - Related Party Transactions (Continued)

         Under the terms of the Agreement, if the General Partners or their
         affiliates provide a substantial amount of services in connection with
         the sale of a property, or a portion of it, acquired through
         foreclosure or otherwise, they shall be paid a commission not to exceed
         the lesser of 1) one-half of the normal and competitive percentage of
         gross sales price charged for similar services by an unaffiliated
         partner; or 2) 3% of the gross sales price of the property. The payment
         shall be subordinate to a return of all of the limited partners'
         capital contributions and the payment to the limited partners of their
         cumulative unpaid priority returns. During 1997 the partnership paid
         $216,250 to TMP Realty, Inc. for brokers fees from the sale of an
         investment.

         Units were offered to the public through TMP Capital Corp. ("TMP
         Capital"), an affiliate of the General Partners, as managing
         broker-dealer. As the managing broker-dealer, TMP Capital received a
         sales commission of up to 10% of the gross proceeds, up to 8% of which
         was reallocated to soliciting dealers on units sold by them. These
         sales commissions were paid by TMP Realty, Inc.

         During 1997, 1996 and 1995, the Partnership was charged $15,152,
         $21,421 and $17,624, respectively, (of which $1,096, $105 and $0 is

Note 3 - Mortgage loans on real estate

         The loan agreements require borrowers to place funds from the loan
         proceeds in a restricted bank account equal to the total interest
         payments over the term of the loan.

         The Partnership receives a first security interest in said account as
         additional collateral for the payment of the note. The borrowers
         instruct the bank to pay to the Partnership the amount of the monthly
         loan payment. In view of this, the only accrual of interest on the
         loans is for the portion of each month the loan is earning interest
         until the first of the following month when the funds are released from
         the restricted account.

         In the event of foreclosure, the collateral would be recorded at its
         fair value at the time of foreclosure. Fair value would be considered
         to be the lower of (a) appraised value determined by an independent
         real estate appraiser, or (b) the general partners' determination of
         the value of the property based on their analysis.

Note 3 - Mortgage loans on real estate (Continued)

         The Partnership would consider collateral for a loan in substance
         foreclosed if all the following criteria are met:

         1. The borrower has little or no equity in the collateral, considering
            the current fair value of the collateral; and

         2. Proceeds for repayment of the loan can be expected to come only from
            the operation or sale of the collateral; and

         3. The borrower has either:

            (a) formally or effectively abandoned control of the collateral to
                the Partnership, or

            (b) retained control of the collateral but, because of the current
                financial condition of the borrower, or the economic prospects
                for the borrower and/or the collateral in the foreseeable
                future, it is doubtful that the borrower will be able to rebuild
                equity in the collateral or otherwise repay the loan in the
                foreseeable future.

         If this occurred, the collateral would be considered foreclosed and
         would be recorded at its fair value.

         The Olson #2 note for $500,000 matured December 17, 1994, went into
         default and was foreclosed on April 26, 1995. The collateral (land) was
         recorded in the accounts at the loan amount which approximates the fair
         value of the land.

         The Environmental Development loan for $1,625,000 matured October 15,
         1994, went into default and was foreclosed on August 23, 1995. The
         collateral (land) was recorded in the accounts at the loan amount which
         approximates the fair value of the land.

         During the year ended December 31, 1995 the Singletary loan for
         $2,200,000 and the Lansing loan for $625,000 were paid in full.

         The LaMonte loan for $1,220,000 defaulted on April 26, 1995 and was
         foreclosed January 17, 1996. The collateral (land) was recorded in the
         accounts at the loan amount which approximates the fair value of the
         land.

Note 3 - Mortgage loans on real estate (Continued)

         The Rockfield Development loan for $100,000 defaulted on April 13, 1995
         and foreclosure was completed on January 17, 1996. The Partnership
         acquired the collateral (land) and transferred it to TMP Mortgage
         Income Plus, Ltd. in exchange for an interest in a project.

         The Peppertree loan for $2,000,000 matured June 28, 1995 and was paid
         July 30, 1996. $1,500,000 was received in cash and $500,000 was
         received in the form of a 20% interest in a 163.33 acre project named
         Village One.
