                      THE CHESTNUT REAL ESTATE PARTNERSHIP
                          AND THE CHESTNUT PARTNERSHIP

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


A.       Basis for Presentation

         The accompanying unaudited financial statements of The Chestnut Real
         Estate Partnership (the Real Estate Partnership) and its subsidiary The
         Chestnut Partnership (the Partnership), in the opinion of management,
         reflect all adjustments (none of which were other than normal recurring
         items), eliminations, and reclassification considered necessary for a
         fair statement 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 Real Estate partnership's
         obligation to the Partnership.

         Both the Real Estate Partnership and the Partnership are general
         partnerships, and are sometimes referred to as "the Partnerships."

         The Real Estate Partnership is owned 50% by Blakehurst Joint Venture
         (Venture) and 50% by West Joppa Road Limited Partnership (West Joppa)
         (collectively the "Partners").

         The Partnership is owned 1% by Venture, 1% by West Joppa, and 98% by
         the Real Estate Partnership.

         The Real Estate Partnership and the Partnership were formed to develop,
         own, and operate a life care retirement community called Blakehurst
         (Project) in the Towson area of Baltimore County, Maryland.

         The Real Estate Partnership 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, and to act as a general partner of the
         Partnership. The publicly-held debt (both Series I and II) is a direct
         obligation of the Partnership, and is guaranteed by the Real Estate
         Partnership. The guaranty, however, is not intended to provide any
         additional security for payment of the principal and interest on the
         bonds than if the Partnership directly held the property and related
         improvements itself. The partners of the Real Estate Partnership own no
         other assets other than their interests in the Partnership. Therefore,
         management believes the combining financial statements of the
         Partnership and the Real Estate Partnership are the most informative,
         because of the guaranty and because of the Operating and Use Agreement,
         which obligates the Partnership to develop, operate and manage the
         Project at its expense and which grants the Partnership use of the
         property until dissolution, liquidation or other termination by mutual
         agreement. The Partnerships have common, ultimate ownership and do not
         have independent operating activities. Management believes this
         presentation best portrays the relationship between the two entities.

B.       Certain Accounting Policies

         Cash

         The Partnerships consider investments with maturities of three months
         or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents.

         Assets Where Use is Limited

         All assets whose use is limited or restricted are cash equivalents as
         of June 30, 1998, and December 31, 1997.

         Deferred Revenues from Admission Fees

         Admission fees are not advance fees in payment for future services of
         for use of facility, because of the manner in which all operating
         expenditures are allocated to the current residents. The non-refundable
         admission fee is a payment in compensation to the Partnership for the
         development risk and is non-refundable except in isolated cases where
         the Partnership would cancel the Residency Agreement. In such cases,
         the resident could be due a portion of the Administration Fee if
         cancellation occurred within the first two years of the contract. The
         refund is based on the remaining life of the resident, actuarially
         determined. Accordingly, the Admission Fee and Resident Loan (together
         the Entrance Payment) is amortized using the Life Table of the U.S.
         Department of Health and Human Services, which in practice results in
         amortization of the Admission Fee portion of the Entrance Payment on a
         straight line over approximately two years. To date, the Partnership
         has never cancelled a Residency Agreement and accordingly has never had
         to refund any portion of the non-refundable admission fee after
         occupancy. Nonetheless, the unamortized admission fees are reported as
         deferred revenue.

         Capitalization of Operating Expenses and Certain Revenues

         Initial occupancy of the Project occurred in August of 1993, with
         cessation of major construction of Phase I occurring in December 1993,
         at which time occupancy was 60%. Construction continued for tenant
         requested improvements and an auditorium addition.

         The Partnership ceased capitalization of operating expenses and certain
         revenues of Phase I in August 1994, because of the extended time frame
         between initial occupancy, completion of major construction, and
         achievement of substantial occupancy.

         The Partnership has also capitalized operating revenues, net of costs
         (except for admission fees and capital reserve fees) for Phase III from
         July 1997 (when initial Phase III-related resident occupancy commenced)
         through March 31, 1998 (when substantial occupancy was achieved), in
         the amount of $77,858. The Phase III portion of the Community had
         reached substantial occupancy at March 31, 1998, with 32 of the 35
         units occupied. As of June 30, 1998, only one of the 35 units of Phase
         III was sold, but not closed.

         Costs of Acquiring Initial Contracts

         Costs of acquiring initial contracts are expected to be recovered from
         the future contract revenues and are therefore capitalized. These costs
         capitalized are amortized over the life expectancy of the initial
         residents, which based on actuarial data, is estimated to be
         approximately 13 years.

         Development Fee

         The development fee incurred in connection with the development of the
         Project is amortized on a pro rata basis as admission fee revenue is
         recognized. Admission fees are being recognized over a 24 month period
         from the date of move-in for those being received from Return of
         Capital Contracts. Admission Fees from Traditional contracts are
         amortized over the expected life of the resident.

C.       Results of Operations

         Admission fees are amortized over a twenty-four month period.

         At the time of initial occupancy, residents are required to make a
         non-refundable payment to a capital replacement reserve. This payment
         is reported as income when received by the Partnerships.

         The development fee incurred in connection with the development of the
         Project (Phase I and Phase III) is amortized on a pro-rata basis and
         admission fee revenue is recognized.

D.       Financing

         In May, 1992, the Partnership completed the issuance of $14,000,000 of
         Ten Year - Put Option Mortgage Bonds, 1992 Series I. The bonds carry an
         initial rate of 9.5%.

         In August, 1992, the Venture and West Joppa, each of which had
         purchased $3,000,000 of Series I Bonds, sold their bonds back to the
         Partnership in conjunction with the Partnership sales of $6,000,000 of
         Ten Year - Put Option Mortgage Bonds, 1992 Series II. These bonds carry
         an initial rate of 8.75%.

         In addition, $20,000,000 has been provided by Venture and West Joppa.
         As of December 31, 1995, all such advances from Partners had been
         repaid, together with interest thereon.

         For the construction of Phase II, an auditorium and miscellaneous
         additional improvements, the Partners funded the cost of approximately
         $800,000.

         For construction of Phase III, a 35-unit addition, West Joppa and Life
         Care Services Corporation (LCS) advanced $7,600,000 and the
         Partnerships arranged to borrow an additional $1,900,000 of long-term
         financing, for a total of $9,500,000. As of June 30, 1998, $7,600,000
         plus interest thereon had been repaid to West Joppa and LCS, and
         development fees of $170,299 to West Joppa and LCS.

         West Joppa and LCS have also advanced $400,000 for initial design of
         Phase IV.

E.       Operating Property

         As of June 30, 1998, $9,275,631 of costs had been incurred and
         capitalized for Phase III. As of June 30, 1998, $263,659 of costs had
         been incurred for Phase IV design and initial development efforts. Both
         of these amounts are included in operating property. As of December 31,
         1997, $9,441,517 had been incurred for construction of Phase III and
         IV.

F.       Transactions with partners

         The Partnerships have agreements with Life Care Services Development
         Corporation (LCSD) and Life Care Services Corporation (LCS), affiliates
         through common ownership of Chestnut Village, Inc., a general partner
         of Venture for development and for management of the community
         respectively. LCSD administers planning, development, financing, and
         marketing functions for the partnerships. LCS has been retained to
         supervise the day-to-day operations of the community.

         The Partnerships entered into a construction management agreement with
         Mullan Contracting Company (Mullan), an affiliate through common
         ownership of one partner of West Joppa for Phase III.

         During the six months ended June 30, 1998, LCS was reimbursed $210,126
         for its services and $172,852 for the six months ended June 30, 1997.
         In addition, LCS was reimbursed in the six months ended June 30, 1998,
         $48,790 for marketing of Phase III units, and $410,865 for the six
         months ended June 30, 1997.

         In the six months ended June 30, 1998, LCSD was reimbursed $93,230 for
         development fees and was reimbursed $341,955 in the six months ended
         June 30, 1997.

         In the six months ended June 30, 1997, Mullan was paid $43,220 of
         construction management fees, and reimbursed $3,981,222 for
         construction costs; in the six months ended June 30, 1998, no payments
         were made to Mullan.

G.       Income Taxes

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

H.       Contingencies

         The realization of the costs and long-term success of the Project is
         contingent upon the resale of units vacated due to death or transfer to
         the health center, and maintenance and efficient operation.

                            THE CHESTNUT PARTNERSHIP
                                       AND
                      THE CHESTNUT REAL ESTATE PARTNERSHIP


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

Overall Financial Condition

The Project contains a total of 212 (177 in Phase I and 35 in Phase III)
residential units, and a 50-bed health center. As of June 30, 1998, all of the
Phase I residential units were reserved or occupied, an increase of 4 since
December 31, 1997. As of June 30, 1997, 173 (97.7%) of the residential units
have been reserved or occupied. In addition, 34 of 35 Phase III residential
units were reserved or occupied as of June 30, 1998, an increase of 2 since
December 31, 1997; Phase III did not open until July of 1997.

As of June 30, 1998, the project had 121 full-time equivalent employees, none of
whom were members of a collective bargaining agreement.

Results of Operations

As of June 30, 1998, 197 units (93%) were occupied and/or paying monthly service
fees. This occupancy compares to 164 (77%) of the units at June 30, 1997
(assuming Phase III had been available), and 192 units (91%) at December 31,
1997.

Amortization of non-refundable admission fees increased because more residents
moved in during the six months ended June 30, 1997, than moved in during the six
months ended June 30, 1996. The two-year amortization period causes the decline
to not be apparent for one year.

On January 1, 1998, a 4.0% increase in the monthly service fees became
effective. That increase, together with an increase in occupancy from June 30,
1997, to the six months ended June 30, 1998, and a 5.5% increase in double
occupancy accounted for the increase in revenue from apartment service fees.

Health center revenues increased even though patient days declined in the six
months ended June 30, 1998, compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997.
Reimbursable rates from Medicare and semi-private rates increased 20% and 10%
respectively in the six months ended June 30, 1998, compared to the six months
ended June 30, 1997.

Capital reserve fees, which are a one-time payment from new residents, increased
because more new residents moved in during the six months ended June 30, 1998,
than moved in during the six months ended June 30, 1997.

Operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased from
$2,796,477 during the first half of 1997 to $3,485,276 during the first half of
1998. This was due primarily to the 20% increase in occupancy.

Depreciation and amortization increased because of the increase in operating
property since June 30, 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the first two quarters of 1997, the partners received $1,600,000 in
distributions from Phase I; in the first two quarters of 1998, they received
$890,000.

Phase III expansion, described under Item 1, was estimated to cost approximately
$10,600,000, which includes the construction management fee to Mullan and
development fee to LCSD. To fund the expansion, the Partners obtained permanent
parity debt financing of $1,900,000 and resident loans and fees of $8,700,000.
Construction period financing was provided by the West Joppa Road Limited
Partnership (WJR) and Life Care Services Corporation (LCS) in the total amount
of $7,600,000.

The Partners advanced $1,600,000 to the Partnerships in 1996 in connection with
Phase III. During the first quarter of 1997, the Partners advanced $6,000,000
for the construction of Phase III. At December 31, 1997, $2,012,258 of such
advances were still owed to the Partners, of which $2,012,258 was repaid in the
first quarter of 1998.

During 1997, the Partners also funded $400,000 towards the beginning design work
for Phase IV, of which $200,000 was advanced during the first quarter of 1997.

Net cash provided by operating activities in 1998 improved approximately
$186,000. Major contributing factors to this were:

         o        Increase in net operating loss                               $( 19,200)

         o        Increase in Depreciation due to completion of Phase III         56,500

         o        Change in operating assets and liabilities                      79,600

         o        Increase in Admission fees received due to more move-ins       173,500

         o        Increase in amortization of non-refundable admission fees
                  revenue due to more move-ins                                  (158,500)

         o        Increase in amortization of development fees operating 
                  expense due to more move-ins                                    56,400
</TABLE>

Net cash used by investing activities in 1998 declined significantly,
essentially because major construction activity had been concluded by 1998.

Cash provided by financing activities declined in 1998 compared to 1997 because
of construction period funding not being required.

Because of the level of occupancy, the resident financing, and the long-term
financing described above, the Partnership believes adequate capital resources
are available to the Partnerships.

The long-term success of the Project is ultimately dependent upon maintaining
adequate levels of occupancy and operating of the Project efficiently.
