Director of Chateau Communities, Inc., the indirect owner of
19,339 Common Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Issuer (of
which 19,139 Common Shares were acquired on May 11, 1998) and 984

securities pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the rules
thereunder. The Reporting Person does not, however, have a
