                    ROC COMMUNITIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
          NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


1.   GENERAL

     ROC Communities, Inc. and ROCF, Inc. ("Subsidiary") (collectively, the
     "Company") were organized on March 31, 1993 in Maryland.  The Company
     operates as a real estate investment trust.  The Company and its
     predecessors have been engaged in the ownership, management, acquisition,
     operation and expansion of manufactured home communities since 1979.  The
     Company owned 70 communities (20,514 sites) located in 23 states and fee
     managed an additional 36 communities (7,276 sites) as of June 30, 1996. 
     The Company provides management services for third party owners and
     affiliated entities.

     On December 20, 1995, the Company organized RCIP, L.P., a Delaware limited
     partnership (the "Operating Partnership").  The Operating Partnership,
     which is currently a totally-owned subsidiary of the Company, holds nominal
     assets and liabilities.  If the Company proceeds with an offering of
     unsecured non-convertible debt securities or seeks to effect a purchase of
     properties on a tax-deferred basis from the sellers of such properties, the
     Company will contribute substantially all of its assets or beneficial
     interest therein, subject to liabilities, to the Operating Partnership and
     will effect such debt offering or purchase through the Operating
     Partnership.  Thereafter, the Company will conduct substantially all of its
     business through, and maintain control over, the Operating Partnership, and
     the Operating Partnership will not conduct any operations that are
     independent from those of the Company.

     On June 26, 1996, the Company organized Redwood Acquisition Corp., a
     Maryland corporation (the "RAC").  RAC, which is a totally-owned subsidiary
     of the Company, acquired two communities in June 1996.

     The accompanying financial statements and related notes have been prepared
     in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
     financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
     Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures
     normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
     generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. 
     In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal
     recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair presentation of the
     Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows have
     been included.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction
     with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
     included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
     December 31, 1995.  The results of operations for the periods presented are
     not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.

2.   ACQUISITION/SALE OF RENTAL PROPERTIES

     The Company acquired one manufactured home community in January 1996 for
     cash of $9.425 million.  The community is located in Cincinnati, Ohio and
     is comprised of 354 sites.  The acquisition was funded from the Company's
     $45 million line of credit.

     The Company acquired one manufactured home community in April 1996 for cash
     of $4 million.  The community is located in Albany, New York and is
     comprised of 235 sites.  In May 1996, the Company acquired one manufactured
     home community for cash of $800,000.  The community is located in
     Shreveport, Louisiana and is comprised of 448 sites.  In June 1996, RAC
     acquired two communities for $25.5 million.  The communities are located in
     Thornton, Colorado and aggregate 1,512 sites.  These acquisitions were
     funded from the Company's $50 million line of credit, $20 million term
     loan, and issuance of 158,017 shares of non-voting redeemable stock.

     In June 1996, the Company sold one 113 site community in Yuma, Arizona for

6.   PROPOSED MERGER

     On July 18, 1996, the Company announced that it had signed an Agreement and

     Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("Chateau"), Chateau Communities,
     Inc., a newly-formed Maryland corporation ("Chateau Communities") organized
     by the Company and Chateau, and R Acquisition Sub, Inc., a newly-formed
     Maryland corporation and a subsidiary of Chateau Communities ("Rsub"),

     which Chateau will merge with Chateau Communities, with Chateau Communities

                     SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION


FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

The Company believes that funds from operations ("FFO") is an appropriate 
measure of performance of an equity REIT.  Funds from operations is defined 
by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") as 
"net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
principles), excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of 
property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for 
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures". While the Company believes 
that FFO is the most relevant and widely used measure of operating 
performance for equity REITs, it does not represent cash generated from 
operating activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
principles and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.  FFO 
should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of 
the Company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a 
measure of liquidity.

In March 1995, NAREIT issued a White Paper which discusses NAREIT's views on
certain interpretative issues under the definition of FFO and also encourages
certain expanded disclosures relating to FFO in the periodic reports issued by
REITs.  The White Paper suggests that amortization of deferred financing costs
and depreciation of non-rental real estate assets should no longer be added back
to net income in calculating FFO.  The Company reports FFO in accordance with
the interpretative positions set forth in the White Paper.  In addition, the
Company provides the expanded disclosures encouraged by the White Paper. 
Accordingly, Item A presents FFO for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995 in accordance with the NAREIT definition, giving effect to the interpretive
positions of the White Paper.  The Company's presentation of FFO, however, may
not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other equity REITs.
Item B sets forth the expanded disclosures encouraged by the White Paper.

                                       OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


OVERVIEW

The Company owned 70 (20,514 homesites) and 63 (16,489 homesites) communities as
of June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  In addition, the Company fee managed
36 (7,276 homesites) and 38 (9,293 homesites) communities as of June 30, 1996
and 1995, respectively.

At June 30, 1996, the Company had total assets of $323,828,000, consisting
primarily of its manufactured housing communities, and total liabilities of
$132,628,000, consisting primarily of mortgage debt of $59,638,000, line of
credit borrowings of $62,454,000 and distributions payable of $5,096,000.

The Company derives its revenues principally from the rental of homesites at
its communities and, to a lesser extent, fee income from its property management
business.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1995.

During the second quarter of 1996, the Company acquired four communities
aggregating 2,213 homesites for $30,300,000 as compared to the second quarter
of 1995 in which the Company had no acquisitions.

The Company had revenues of $14,683,000 and $12,465,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  Rental income increased $2,213,000
(18.63%). The increase included $664,000 (5.59%) related to the communities
owned during both periods primarily as a result of rental increases and utility
pass-throughs.  Management income increased $41,000 (13.49%) primarily due to
rental increases at the communities.  Other income decreased $36,000 (12.72%)
primarily as a result of a reduction in interest income.

Property operations and maintenance increased $714,000 (18.5%). These expenses
increased  $144,000 (3.94%) for the communities owned during both periods
primarily due to utility expense increases of $82,000 resulting from rate and
usage increases.  Real estate taxes increased $201,000 (22.09%), of which the
communities owned during both periods accounted for $24,000 (2.55%). General and
administrative expenses increased $165,000 (21.71%) as a result of adding
additional office space at the corporate office and two regional offices and
increased payroll expenses.  Interest expense increased $732,000 (68.73%) as a
result of the 1996 acquisitions that were funded from the Company's $45 million
line of credit, $50 million line of credit ("the Line of Credit"), or 
$20 million term loan (the "Term Loan").  Depreciation and amortization 
expenses increased $250,000 as a result of the 1996 acquisitions.

The Company had net income of $3,114,000 and $2,958,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The increase in net income of
$156,000 (5.27%) was primarily a result of the operations noted above and the
1996 acquisitions.

ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  Rental income increased $4,120,000
(17.37%). The increase included $1,278,000 (5.39%) related to the communities
owned during both periods primarily as a result of rental increases at the
communities.  Management income increased $103,000 (17.61%) due to the addition
of five fee-managed communities and rental increases at the communities.  Other
income decreased $107,000 (21.57%) primarily as a result of a reduction in
interest income.

Property operations and maintenance increased $1,423,000 (18.52%). These
expenses increased  $402,000 (5.58%) for the communities owned during both
periods primarily due to utility expense increases of $224,000 at the
communities resulting from rate and usage increases and increases in maintenance
expenses of $63,000.  Real estate taxes increased $301,000 (15.98%), and the
communities owned during both periods accounted for $40,000 (2.09%) of the
increase.  General and administrative expenses increased $262,000 (16.61%) as
a result of adding additional office space at the corporate office and two
regional offices and increased payroll expenses.  Interest expense increased
$1,358,000 (63.88%) as a result of the acquisitions that were funded from the
Company's $45 million line of credit, the Line of Credit or the Term Loan. 
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $733,000 as a result of the

1995 third quarter acquisition of three communities and the 1996 acquisitions of
five communities.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 1996, the Company had cash of $2,303,000, cash reserves, established
pursuant to the terms of the Company's mortgage debt for capital replacements
and real property taxes, expected to be incurred during the year of $1,157,000,
and other current assets of $1,251,000.  At June 30, 1996, the Company had
accounts payable and accrued expenses of $3,857,000 including property taxes
payable of $1,875,000, distributions payable of $5,096,000, and other current
liabilities of $643,000.  At June 30, 1996, the Company had $3,000,000 available
under its $3 million working capital line of credit and $7,546,000 available
under its $50 million line of credit.  The Company has $59,638,000 of mortgage
debt (the "Mortgage Debt") which bears interest at a fixed rate of 7.16%. The
mortgage debt is due and payable on August 1, 2000.  On May 2, 1996, the Company
replaced its $45 million line of credit with a new facility through the First
National Bank of Chicago, that includes the Line of Credit and the Term Loan.  
The new loans are unsecured, and bear interest at LIBOR + 1.50%. The Line of 
Credit matures in April, 1999 and the Term Loan matures in April, 1997.  On 
June 30, 1996, the Company had $42,454,000 outstanding on its $50 million Line 
of Credit and $20 million outstanding on its Term Loan.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                                       OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                  (CONCLUDED)


The Company declared a distribution of $5,096,000, or $.405 per share, on 
June 14, 1996 for stockholders of record on June 30, 1996.  The distribution 
was paid on July 15, 1996.

The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements, principally
distributions to stockholders and capital improvements to its communities,
through funds generated from operations and working capital, including cash
reserves established pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Debt.

Expansion of existing manufactured home communities, acquisition of additional
communities and the repayment of principal on the Mortgage Debt or any other
debt incurred by the Company, represent the Company's principal long-term
capital requirements.  The Company does not expect to generate sufficient cash
flow from operating activities to meet its long-term liquidity needs described
above and intends to finance them primarily through additional equity offerings,
borrowings under the Line of Credit, utilization of the Term Loan or alternative
forms of financing or refinancing.

On July 18, 1996, the Company announced that it had signed an Agreement and Plan
of Merger, dated as of July 17, 1996, among the Company, Chateau Properties,
Inc., a Maryland corporation ("Chateau"), Chateau Communities, Inc., a newly-
formed Maryland corporation ("Chateau Communities") organized by the Company and
Chateau, and R Acquisition Sub, Inc., a newly-formed Maryland corporation and a
subsidiary of Chateau Communities ("Rsub"), which contemplates a strategic
business combination transaction pursuant to which Chateau will merge with
Chateau Communities, with Chateau Communities surviving such merger (the
"Chateau Merger"), and the Company will merge with Rsub, with the Company
surviving such merger (the "ROC Merger" and, together with the Chateau Merger,
the "Mergers").

As a result of the Mergers, each outstanding share of common stock, par value
$.O1 per share, of the Company ("ROC Common Stock") and non-voting redeemable
stock, par value $.O1 per share, of the Company ("ROC Non-Voting Stock") will be
converted into 1.042 shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, of
Chateau Communities ("Chateau Communities Common Stock"), and each outstanding
share of common stock, par value $.O1 per share, of Chateau ("Chateau Common
Stock") will be converted into one share of Chateau Communities Common Stock. 
The Mergers are subject to a number of conditions, as described in the Merger
Agreement.  The Mergers are expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of
1996 and are subject to approval by the stockholders of both the Company and
Chateau as well as customary regulatory and other conditions.  The ROC Merger 
will not require use of the Company's cash except to pay for certain expenses
relating to such merger.  The Company intends to incur additional borrowings for
such purposes in a manner consistent with its policy of maintaining a ratio of
debt-to-total market capitalization of less than 50%.

INFLATION

Substantially all of the leases at the communities allow for monthly or annual
rent increases which provide the Company with the opportunity to achieve
increases in rental income as each lease matures.  Such types of leases
generally minimize the risk of inflation to the Company.
