Item 2: Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
------------------------------------
On August 31, 2000, N'Tandem Trust, a California business trust (the
"Trust"), through its limited partnership subsidiary, N'Tandem Properties, L.P.,
acquired, in two separate transactions, Hunter's Walk, a manufactured home
community containing 265 homesites located in Montgomery, Alabama, from the
Hunter's Walk Corporation, an Alabama corporation and Boulder Park, a
manufactured home community containing 216 homesites located in Pharr, Texas,
through a merger with Boulder Park LLC, a Texas limited liability company
(collectively, the "Acquired Properties"). The terms of each Purchase Agreement
was determined through arms-length negotiations between the respective seller
and N'Tandem Properties, L.P.
The purchase price for the Hunter's Walk community was $2,295,000 and
was funded through the Trust's $20 million acquisition line of credit with US
Bank N.A. (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility bears interest at a rate
equal to LIBOR plus 100 basis points and has a two-year term which expires in
November 2001. In conjunction with the purchase, the name of the community was
changed to Heritage Point.
The purchase price for the Boulder Park community was $2,380,000 and
was funded through the Credit Facility.
In determining the purchase prices paid for the Acquired Properties,
the Trust considered, among other things, the historical and expected cash flow
from the Acquired Properties, the nature of the occupancy trends and terms of
the leases in place, current operating costs and taxes, the physical condition
of the Acquired Properties, the potential to increase cash flow of the Acquired
Properties and other factors. The Trust also considered the capitalization rates
of recently sold manufactured home communities in the same geographic areas as
the Acquired Properties. No independent appraisals were preformed in connection
with the acquisition of the Acquired Properties.
