CAPITOL COMMUNITIES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
------------------------------------------
June 30, 1998
-------------
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
---------------------------------------------------------
Background
----------
The consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 1998 and the related
statements of operations and cash flows for the nine month period
ended June 30, 1998, include the accounts of Capitol Communities
Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries and are unaudited. All
inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the September 30, 1997, fiscal year end
financial statements and related notes. The unaudited interim
financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion
of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the
interim periods presented and all such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of
results for a full year.
The Company was originally incorporated in the State of New York on
November 8, 1968, under the name of Century Cinema Corporation. In
1983, the Company merged with a privately owned company, Diagnostic
Medical Equipment Corp., and as a result changed its name to that of
the acquired company. By 1990, the Company was an inactive publicly
held corporation. In 1993, the Company changed its name to AWEC
Resources, Inc., and commenced operations. On February 11, 1994, the
Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, AWEC Development Corp., an
Arkansas corporation, which later changed its name to Capitol
Development of Arkansas Inc., on January 29, 1996. The Company was
formed to develop and sell real estate properties. In May 1994, the
Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, AWEC Homes, Inc., an
Arkansas corporation for the purpose of building single-family homes.
The subsidiary's name was changed to Capitol Homes, Inc., on January
29, 1996.
In order to effectuate a change in domicile and name change, approved
by a majority of the Predecessor Corporation shareholders, the
Predecessor Corporation merged, effective January 30, 1996, into
Capitol Communities Corporation, a Nevada corporation formed in August
1995, solely for the purpose of the merger.
On April 17, 1997, the Company formed Capitol Resorts, Inc., an
Arkansas corporation (the "Resort Subsidiary"), for the purpose of
conducting the Company's proposed Vacation Interval operation. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation."
On July 30, 1997, the Company acquired Capitol Resorts of Florida,
Inc. (the "Florida Resorts Subsidiary"), a newly formed Florida
Corporation pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization
between the Company and MLT Management Corp. ("MLT"), a corporation
not affiliated with the Company. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis or Plan of Operation."
On December 9, 1997, the Florida Resorts Subsidiary acquired the lease
rights to 120 feet of beachfront land and improvements located in
Pompano Beach, Florida (the "Ocean Palms Resort Property") from Ocean
Palms Resort, Inc. ("OPRI"), and
8

parties. The Company also acquired the interest of the owners in
certain other assets of OPRI and OPDC. See "Management's Discussion
and Analysis or Plan of Operation."
On December 9, 1997, the Florida Resorts Subsidiary acquired all of
the issued and outstanding stock of OPV Development, Inc. ("OPV"), an
unaffiliated third party, whose primary asset is the Ocean Villas
property ("Ocean Villas"), located in Pompano Beach, Florida. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation."
On April 30, 1998, the Resort Subsidiary acquired all of the
membership interests of Entry Resorts International, LLC, a New
Hampshire limited liability company ("ERI") and Entry Resorts
Marketing, LLC, a New Hampshire limited liability company("EMI"),
unaffiliated third parties. ERI and EMI are engaged in the
development, marketing and sale of vacation packages and time share
products and services. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis or
Plan of Operation."
Revenue Recognition
-------------------
The full accrual method is used to determine the recognition of
revenue. In order to recognize revenue and profit under the full
accrual method the following criteria must be met. The profit from the
sale must be determinable, that is, the collectibility of the sales
price is reasonably assured, or any portion which may not be
collectible can be reasonably estimated. In addition, the earnings
process must be complete, with no significant activities required of
the seller after the sale in order to earn the profit from the sale.
Earnings/Loss Per Share
-----------------------
Primary earnings per common share are computed by dividing the net
income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
and common stock equivalents outstanding during the year. The number
of shares used for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, was 7,144,747
and for the nine months ended June 30, 1998, was 7,205,559

Forward-Looking Statements
- --------------------------
Certain matters discussed in this Form 10-QSB are forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and
as such may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors
which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company
to be different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed
or implied by such forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes the
expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon
reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that its expectations will be
attained. These risks are detailed from time to time in the Company's filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no
obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions to these forward-
looking statements that may be made to reflect any future events or
circumstances.
During the last fiscal year, the Company significantly expanded the nature
of its business activities from land sales to real estate development and
vacation interval operations. Although the Company has not yet commenced any
material development or building activity, its primary focus is the development
and sale of residential single-family homes on the more than 1,700 acres it
currently owns in the City of Maumelle, Arkansas ("the Maumelle Property"), a
5,000 acre master planned community located fifteen miles from downtown Little
Rock. In addition, the Company has expanded its focus to include the
acquisition, renovation, development, sale and financing of vacation ownership
interval interests ("VOIs") and vacation long-term leasehold interests ("LTLs")
of resort, hotel and vacation properties. In its efforts to diversify its
development focus, the Company has purchased approximately 36.3 acres of land
and improvements in Osceola County, Florida, for development as a hotel and a
VOI property. In December 1997, the Company also purchased 16 LTL Units (the
"Ocean Villas" property), as a result of the acquisition of the stock of OPV
Development, Inc. ("OPV"), an unaffiliated third party. In December 1997, the
Company also purchased the lease rights to 120 feet of beachfront land and
improvements in Pompano Beach, Florida ( the "Ocean Palms Resort"). The Ocean
Palms Resort improvement includes a 53 LTL unit complex, all of which have been
sold, with the Company acquiring the promissory notes generated from the sale
(the "Ocean Palms Resort Promissory Notes"), as well as other assets. In April,
1998, the Company acquired sales and marketing expertise, along with management
and operations with the acquisition of the membership interest in Entry Resorts
Marketing, LLC, a New Hampshire limited liability company ("EMI") and Entry
Resorts International, LLC, a New Hampshire limited liability company ("ERI"),
collectively Entry Resorts. Entry Resorts engages in the development, marketing
and sale of vacation packages and time share products, nationally and
internationally, and provides the Company with the ability to market its own
vacation interval properties, instead of out-sourcing such marketing programs.
See "LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES." The Company believes that its ability to
generate revenues in the future from real estate development and interval
activities will depend in large part on its ability to restructure, retire or
replace its current short-term debt into long-term debt, and raise sufficient
capital to commence meaningful development operations, and the Company's ability
to develop or acquire greater construction and other real estate and interval
development expertise than the Company now possesses. The following discussion
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes
12
<PAGE>
thereto appearing in Item 1 of this Part I (the "Financial Statements").
Financial Condition
- -------------------
During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997, and during the six month
period ended March 31, 1997, the Company continued to focus on expanding its
position in the vacation interval and resort industries by acquiring strategic
assets in these industries. In the nine month period ended June 30, 1998, the
Company acquired approximately $2.5 million in the Ocean Palms Resort Promissory
Notes generated from the sale of LTL units in the Ocean Palms Resort and the
sale of LTL units in the Ocean Villas (the "Ocean Villas Promissory Notes"). The
acquisition of the Ocean Villas units increased the Company's real estate
holdings by approximately $500,000. These acquisitions were primarily
accomplished by utilizing cash and short term loans and lines of credit
available to the Company. The Company intends to restructure and to replace the
major of the short-term debt utilized to purchase these properties with more
conventional long term financing. See "LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES." In the
nine month period, the Company also acquired Entry Resorts, and with the
acquisitions, a resort club with more than 11,000 active members. Entry Resorts
is a full service accommodation/fulfillment concern, and provides, for a fee,
extensive resources and services for its members to access quality accommodation
in prime destination vacation markets at discount prices. The acquisitions were
accomplished through the issuance of common stock. See "LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL
RESOURCES." Management believes it needs to raise sufficient additional capital
to replace or retire its short term debt, or convert such debt in to long term
debt where appropriate, in order toimprove the results of future operations.
Such restructuring will enable the Company to commence significant development
activities in Maumelle and expand its acquisition and sale of vacation interval
interests. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able
to restructure or retire its short-term debt on favorable terms to the Company
or at all.
Change in Financial Condition Since the End of the Last Fiscal Year. At
--------------------------------------------------------------------
June 30, 1998, the Company had total assets of $17,182,726 an increase of
$6,948,434, or 67.9% over the Company's total assets as of the Company's fiscal
year end of September 30, 1997. The Company had cash of $777,870 at June 30,
1998, compared to $227,162 at September 30, 1997, an increase of $550,708. See
"LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES."
Prepaid assets increased from $202,674 on September 30, 1997, to $274,198
on June 30, 1998, an increase of $71,524. This increase primarily was a result
of the acquisition of the Ocean Palms Resort and Ocean Villas properties, both
of which are located in Pompano Beach Florida (collectively the "Pompano Beach
Properties"). The Ocean Palms Resort had prepaid insurance and a prepaid ground
lease totaling $127,539, as of June 30, 1998, while Ocean Villas had prepaid
insurance and a prepaid ground lease totaling $8,219, as of June 30, 1998.
Prepaid contracts also decreased prepaid assets by approximately $46,000 in the
nine month period ended June 30, 1998.
On December 9, 1997, the Company acquired an interest in several Ocean
Palms Resort Promissory Notes resulting from the sale of long term leasehold
Ocean Palms Resort units, together with certain other assets and rights. On the
same date, the Company also acquired the Ocean Villas property, the assets of
which included $243,970 in the Ocean Villas Promissory Notes. See "LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES." The collective balance due on these notes
13
<PAGE>
amounted to $2,429,531, net of a discount of $248,821, as of June 30, 1998.
There were no related assets as of September 30, 1997.
On April 30, 1998, the Company acquired Entry Resorts and $167,000 in
Vacation Club Membership Lists which are being amortized over a period between 5
and 10 years. There were no comparable assets in 1997.
The carrying value of the Company's real estate holdings increased by
$3,070,596 during the nine months ended June 30, 1998, from $9,468,637 to
$12,539,233. Two major factors of this increase were the acquisition of Ocean
Villas, discussed above, and related capitalized costs, which resulted in an
increase of $520,008 and the acquisition of Tract D in Maumelle, Arkansas, for a
total of $1,904,486. Other factors were, additional expenditures on the Florida
Bible College Property, in Osceola County, Florida, including capitalization of
interest in the amount of $327,506, capitalized costs of $51,771 added to the
book value of the Maumelle Commercial and Multi-Family Tracts and $92,152 in
capitalized costs added to the book value of the Capitol Lakes Estates property,
which accounted for the majority of the balance of the increase.
Total liabilities of the Company at June 30, 1998, had increased to
$15,043,548, an increase of $8,975,723 over the September 30, 1997 total of
$6,067,825. The liability for accrued interest increased to $264,404 at June 30,
1998, from $59,810 at September 30, 1997. This increase of $186,594 in accrued
interest reflects the overall interest in debt of the Company and the timing of
interest payments required on such debt, as well as the effect of interest due
to Resure Inc. ("Resure") for one quarter. As of September 30, 1997, the
payment due on October 1, 1997 had been paid and not accured. The July 1, 1998,
payment had not be been paid as of June 30. 1998. This timing difference
resulted in an increase of $84,880 in accrued interst payable over the September
30, 1997 total. The current liability for notes payable increased by $8,045,429
during the nine months, from $2,099,973, as of September 30, 1997, to
$10,145,402, as of June 30, 1998. This resulted primarily from using
approximately $1,750,000 of the Company's short-term lines of credit to acquire
the Pompano Beach Properties and other expenses in December 1997. The Ocean
Palms Villas was financed with the assumption of a first leasehold mortgage with
a balance of $370,687 as of June 30, 1998, reflected in the increase in long
term liabilities and a second leasehold mortgage of $150,000, reflected in the
increase in short term liabilities. The Ocean Palms Resort leasehold mortgage
was assumed, with a balance of $1,121,974, as of June 30, 1998, and has a
renewal or extension date of April 1, 1999. While the Company expects to renew
or replace that mortgage, the entire balance is considered a current note
payable. The Company increased its other short term debt from Arkansas banks by
an additional $400,000 in the period. The funds were used for general operating
purposes. As of June 30, 1998, the Company had borrowed $1,900,000 from the
First Arkansas Valley Bank and approximately $996,000 from TransFlorida Bank.
The funds were used primarily for the purchase of Tract D and 700,000 shares of
the Company's common stock from Century. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources."
In addition, as of June 30, 1998, the Company had borrowed $2,846,222 in loans
from private sources (the "Bridge Loans"). This represented an increase of
$1,868,516 in the nine month period. See "LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES."
Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by $ 436,608. At September
30,1997, the liability for accounts payable and accrued expenses totaled
$516,994. At March 31, 1998, the
14
<PAGE>
balance was $953,602. The major portion of the increase, or $255,000 was
comprised of accrued officers salaries. The acquisition of Entry Resorts also
increased accounts payable and accrued expenses by $110,496. Accrued real estate
taxes payable increased by $136,781.
Accrued interest increased by $186,594, from $59,810 as of September 30,
1997, to $246,404 as of June 30, 1998, as a result of the increase in total
debt.
Shareholders' Equity decreased by $2,027,289 or 48.7%. The decrease
results primarily from the combination of the operating loss of $2,272,527 for
the nine month period ending June 30, 1998, and the acquisition of 700,000
shares of the Company's stock under the Century option, which was partially
offset by the issuance of $166,500 of the Company stock as part of the
acquisition cost of Entry Resorts and $95,900 from the exercise of options for
the purchase of stock.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Comparison of Nine Months Ended June 30, 1998 to the Nine Months Ended June 30,
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1997. For the nine months ended June 30, 1998, the Company experienced a net
- -----
loss of $2,272,527 compared with a loss of $246,562 for the nine months ended
June 30, 1997. The increase is primarily attributed to an increase in General
and Administrative Expenses and a decrease in sales.
Revenues decreased by $961,534 to $919,911 for the nine months ended June
30, 1998, from $1,881,445 for the nine months ended June 30, 1997. During the
nine months ended June 30, 1998, the sale of the Ocean Villas LTL units, totaled
$374,960. Capitol Development of Arkansas, Inc. (the "Operating Subsidiary"),
sold one parcel of undeveloped land for $25,000, Company also received $289,887
in hotel management revenue from the Pompano Beach Properties and $209,887 in
sales from the newly acquired vacation club operation. During the nine months
ended June 30, 1997, sales totaled $1,881,445, primarily from the sale of a 67
acre single family residential tract in Maumelle for $1,552,730, the sale of a
commercial property tract in Maumelle for $110,000 and timber royalties of
$200,444. The dissolution of the joint venture with the Monterra Group in
California provided sales of $18,122 from the net proceeds of the sale of lots.
The gross profit for the nine months ended June 30, 1998, was $574,139, as
compared with $1,433,852 for the nine months ended June 30, 1997. The higher
gross profit in 1997 reflects the low cost basis in the land and timber sold in
the period relative to the sales price.
General and administrative expenses increased by $1,287,375, from
$1,130,007 for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, to $2,417,382 for the nine
months ended June 30, 1998. This increase is a result of the increase in
operational activities. Insurance costs increased by $72,028 in the nine months
ended June 30, 1998, over the same period in 1997, as a result of the
acquisition of the Florida Bible College and the Pompano Beach Properties.
Repairs and Maintenance also increased by $77,482 in the nine month period ended
June 30, 1998, primarily as a result of the same acquisitions. Management Fees
and Employee Compensation for the nine months ended June 30, 1998, increased to
$608,449, an increase of $484,556 over the totals for the corresponding period
in 1997. Most of the increase are attributable to the properties in Florida and
the newly acquired Entry Resorts. These were both new operations to the Company,
with no equivalent expense in the comparable 1997 period. Officers Salaries for
the nine month period ended June 30, 1998, amounted to $255,000, an increase of
$75,000 over the comparable 1997 period. The
15
<PAGE>
majority of the Officers Salaries were accrued by the Company. Lease expenses
increased by $63,998 in the nine month period ended June 30, 1998 over the same
period in 1997. Amortization expenses increased by $217,405 for the nine months
ended June 30, 1998, over the same period in 1997, primarily as a result of the
costs associated with the Bridge Loans. In addition to the operating expenses,
an expense of $66,106 was recognized in the period ended March 31, 1998, when it
was determined that deposits paid and expenditures made on three projects in
Florida that the Company had been negotiating to acquire, were not recoverable.
There was no comparable expense in 1997.
Interest income increased from $67,618 for the nine month period ended June
30, 1997, to $580,341 for the nine month period ended June 30, 1998. Interest
income in 1997 represented interest due on the Resure Debenture, which the
Company no longer owns effective September 30, 1997. Interest income for the six
month period ended March 31, 1998, represented seven months of interest
receivables due to the Company from the Ocean Palms Resort Promissory Notes and
Ocean Villas Promissory Notes.
Interest expense decreased by $37,684 from $618,025 for the nine months
ended June 30, 1997, to $580,341 for the nine months ended June 30, 1998. In
addition to the $580,341 expensed for the nine month period ended June 30, 1998,
interest of $173,296 was capitalized as part of the improvement costs of the
projects in Orlando, Florida and the Pompano Beach Properties.
The Company does not foresee any significant elements of income or loss
that would not arise from its ordinary course of business, except for the losses
that would likely arise if the Company were unable to extend, replace or retire
its short term debt as it matures.
Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30,1998 to the Three Months Ended June
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
30,1997. For the three months ended June 30, 1998, the Company experienced a
- --------
net loss of $1,145,350 compared with a profit of $400,698 for the three months
ended June 30, 1997. The change is primarily attributed to an increase in
General and Administrative Expenses and a decrease in sales.
Revenues decreased by $961,534 to $397,163 for the three months ended June
30, 1998, from $1,593,980 for the three months ended June 30, 1997. During the
three months ended June 30, 1998, the sale of the Ocean Villas LTL units,
totaled $79,990. Sales by the Entry Resorts totaled $209,887 for May and June,
1998. The Company also received $97,285 in hotel management revenue from the
Pompano Beach Properties. During the three months ended June 30, 1997, revenues
totaled $41,250 from the sale of timber and $1,552,730 from the sale of an
undeveloped 67 acre single family tract of the Maumelle, Arkansas property. The
gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 1998 was $250,069, as compared
with $1,190,088 for the three months ended June 30, 1997.
General and administrative expenses increased by $651,029, from $570,609
for the three months ended June 30, 1997, to $1,221,638 for the three months
ended June 30, 1998. This increase is a result of the increase in operational
activities. Management Fees and Employee compensation for the three months ended
June 30, 1998, increased by $300,549 to $345,549 from the three months ended
June 30, 1997. Most of the increase occurred as a result of the Florida
16
<PAGE>
properties operations, and the newly acquired vacation club operation. Both of
these operations were newly acquired with no equivalent expense in 1997.
Amortization expenses increased by $83,315 for the three months ended June 30,
1998 over the same period in 1997, primarily as a result of costs associated
with the Bridge Loans.
Interest income increased from $5,495 for the three month period ended June
30, 1997, to $61,357 for the three month period ended June 30, 1998. The
increase results from the acquisition of the Ocean Palms Resort Promissory
Notes and Ocean Villas Promissory Notes.
Interest expense increased by $10,862 from $224,276 for the three months
ended June 30, 1997, to $235,138 for the three months ended June 30, 1998.
The Company does not foresee any significant elements of income or loss
that would not arise from its ordinary course of business, except for the losses
that would likely arise if the Company were unable to extend, replace or retire
its short term debt as it matures. There can be no assurance, however, that the
Company will be able to extend, replace or retire its short term debt on
favorable terms or at all.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Cash and cash equivalents amount to $777,870 or 4.62% of total assets at
June 30, 1998, as compared with $227,162 or 2.23% at September 30, 1997. The
Company's liquidity position at June 30, 1998, is not adequate to meet the
Company's liquidity requirements, which include approximately $10,145,000 in
short term debt.
The Company has, as of June 30, 1998, borrowed $2,846,222 in Bridge Loans
from private sources with net proceeds to the Company of approximately
$2,287,683. The majority of the promissory notes evidencing the Bridge Loans,
(the "Bridge Notes") bear interest at a rate of 10% to 10.9% per annum and
mature nine months from the date of each note. Although the Bridge Loans are
unsecured, the Company has provided a guarantee bond to the Bridge Note holders
at a cost to the Company of approximately $168,000 or 6.0%. The Company has
also paid the investment banking firms that assisted the Company in obtaining
the Bridge Loans a fee of approximately $420,000 or 14.8% of the Bridge Loans.
The Bridge Notes mature in the third and the fourth quarters of 1998 and the
first and second quarters of 1999.
Since the end of the Company's fiscal year ended September 30, 1997, it has
obtained a revolving line of credit with the Bank of Atkins in the amount of
$1,725,000 at a fixed rate of interest of 10% per annum. The revolving line of
credit matures November 27, 1998, at which time the principal and all accrued
interest is due. This line of credit is secured by approximately 344 acres of a
residential tract of the Maumelle Property (the "Large Residential Tract"). As
of June 30, 1998, the outstanding balance of the revolving line of credit was
$1,725,000. The funds were used to complete the acquisition of the Pompano Beach
Properties, to pay off certain accounts payable, and for working capital.
17
<PAGE>
On March 31, 1997, the Company obtained a fixed rate commercial revolving
line of credit from the Bank of Little Rock (the "Little Rock Credit Line I"),
in the amount of $400,000, bearing an interest rate of 10.00% per annum, payable
interest only on a monthly basis, and maturing on April 10, 1999. The line is
secured by approximately a 10.799 acre multi-family parcel of the Company's
Maumelle Property. On July 29, 1997, the Company obtained a second commercial
revolving line of credit from the Bank of Little Rock, (the "Little Rock Credit
Line II"), in the amount of $450,000, also bearing interest at the rate of
10.00% per annum, payable principal and interest on demand or at maturity. The
current maturity date is November 5, 1998. This line is secured by approximately
a 19 acre multi-family parcel of the Company's Maumelle Property. As of June 30,
1998, the Company has drawn a total of $845,524 against the lines of credit.
The proceeds were used to complete the purchase of approximately 35 acres of
land and improvements in Osceola County, Florida, known as the Florida Bible
College, discussed below. On March 10, 1998, the Company obtained a $250,000
loan from the Bank of Little Rock (the "Little Rock Credit Line III") secured by
the 19 multi-family acres of the Maumelle Property, which also secures the
Little Rock Credit Line II, discussed above. The $250,000 loan bears interest at
the rate of 10.00%. Interest only payments are due monthly, commencing April 10,
1998, and the entire balance of principal and accrued interest is due and
payable on September 10, 1998. The advances were used for general corporate
purposes. As of June 30, 1998, there was a balance of $250,000 owed on the loan.
On December 9, 1997, Capitol Resorts of Florida, Inc. (the "Florida Resorts
Subsidiary") acquired the lease rights to Ocean Palms Resort, which consist of
120 feet of beachfront land and improvements located in Pompano Beach, Florida,
from Ocean Palms Resort, Inc. ("OPRI"), and Ocean Palms Development Corporation
("OPDC") unaffiliated third parties. The ground lease rights to the Ocean Palms
Resort property is for a period of 99 years, of which 65 years and 9 months

interest in several long term tenant leases, approximately $2,500,000 in the
Ocean Palms Resort Promissory Notes arising out of the sale of the Ocean Palms
Resort LTL units, and the right to manage and operate the on-going rental of the
LTL units as hotel rooms on behalf of the LTL owners. As of June 30, 1998, the
outstanding book value of the Ocean Palms Resort Promissory Notes amounted to
$2,194,052, net a of discount of $248,821. The Ocean Palms Resort Promissory
Notes are pledged, as additional collateral, to certain debt on the property
assumed by the Company, and discussed below. The Company acquired the Ocean
Palms Resort property, the Ocean Palms Resort Promissory Notes and the other
rights for approximately $868,000 in cash, the issuance of 33,500 shares of the
Company's Common Stock and the assumption of a $1,158,000 mortgage encumbering
the Ground Lease (the "Ocean Palms Resort Note").
On December 9, 1997, the Florida Resorts Subsidiary acquired all of the
issued and outstanding shares of OPV, an unaffiliated third party. With the
stock acquisition, the Company acquired OPV's primary asset, Ocean Villas, which
consists of two lease rights to a four lot parcel of land and improvements (the
"Ground Leases") located in Pompano Beach, Florida. The First Ground Lease is
for a period of 99 years, of which 64 years and 11 months remain. The Second
Ground Lease is for a period of 93 years and 3 months, of which 64 years and 11
months remain. The Company acquired the 16 LTL unit Ocean Villas, and
approximately $244,000 in the Ocean Villas Promissory Notes, which arose from
the prior sale of 4 LTL units, for approximately
18
<PAGE>
$107,000 in cash, and the assumption of a first mortgage of $375,000 and a
second mortgage of $150,000 encumbering the Ground Leases (the "First and Second
Ocean Villas Notes"). As of June 30, 1998, the outstanding book value of the
Ocean Villas Promissory Notes amounted to $235,479. The Ocean Villas Promissory
Notes are pledged to the First and Second Ocean Villas Notes as additional
collateral, as discussed below.
Due to the acquisition of the Ocean Palms Resort property and the Ocean
Villas property, the Company's debt now includes the following:
$1,158,000 note ("Ocean Palms Resort Note"), payable to various trusts and
individuals (the "Ocean Palms Mortgagee"), secured by an assignment of the
Ocean Palms Promissory Note and the conditional assignment of the Ocean
Palms Ground Lease; 12.75% interest per annum, with interest only payments
made monthly until May 1, 1998, at which time it is the note is payable
interest and principal each month until it matures on April 1, 1999. The

before March 1, 1999. As of June 30, 1998, the balance of the note amounted
to $1,121,974.
$375,000 note ("First Ocean Villas Note"), payable to Onofrio Biviano and
secured by collateral assignments of the non-recourse installment notes
(the "Ocean Villas Paper"); 10.5% interest, payable interest and principal
monthly until the note matures on September 17, 2001.
$150,000 note ("Second Ocean Villas Note"), payable to Domenick Greco,
Trustee and Leonard Gross, and secured by collateral assignments of the
Ocean Villas Paper; 12% interest, payable interest only per month,
commencing January 9, 1998, until the note matures on December 9, 1998.
As of the date of this Report, the Company is not current on the July 1,
1998 quarterly payment of $101,591 of principal and interest due to Resure
on the $3,500,000 amended recourse note (the "Resure Note I"), which

Note I is secured by the approximately 701-acre Large Residential Tract in
Maumelle, Arkansas. As of June 30, 1998, the principal balance on the
Resure Note I was $3,395,189. The Company intends to bring current the
July 1, 1998, payment before the end of the current quarter..
As of December 31,1997, the Company was obligated for a $200,000 unsecured
recourse note payable to Davister Corp. (the "Davister Note") which matured
January 9, 1996. Although the Davister Note has matured, the lender has not
demanded payment or instituted collection proceedings. The Company intends
to retire this debt in fiscal year 1998, from debt financing or generated
revenues.
On April 10, 1998, the Resorts Subsidiary obtained a $1,000,000 line of
credit from Transflorida Bank, secured by the 36.3 acres of the Florida
Bible College Property, located in Orlando, Florida. The line of credit is
guaranteed by the Company. The Transflorida Bank credit line bears interest
at a variable interest rate of 1.00% in excess of the prime rate,
19
<PAGE>
as determined by the Sun Trust Banks of Florida, Inc. The initial interest
rate is 9.50% and is adjustable at the time prime rate changes. Interest is
payable on a monthly basis until April 1, 1999, when the entire principal
balance and accrued interest is due and payable. As of June 30, 1998, there
was a balance of $996,281 owed on the line of credit. The Funds were used
to assist with the exercise of the Century option (see below), working
capital for the Florida operations, working capital for ERI and EMI, and
general corporate purposes
On April 17, 1998, the Operating Subsidiary exercised its option under the
Century Settlement to purchase the 36 acres of commercial property, ("Tract
D"); a 3.8 acre tract of land adjoining Tract D, (the "Corner Lot"); and
700,000 shares of the Company's voting common stock owned by Century, for a
total purchase price of $2,132,057. The Operating subsidiary obtained a
$1,900,000 loan, dated April 15, 1998, from First Arkansas Valley Bank to
assist in the purchase. The loan is secured by Tract D, the Corner Lot and
the 700,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The loan bears interest
at 10.00% per annum and matures on October 12, 1998, when the entire
principal and all accrued interest is due and payable. The balance owing on
the loan as of June 30, 1998, was $1,900,000.
On April 30, 1998, Capitol Resorts Inc., (the "Resorts Subsidiary")
acquired all of the membership interests of ERI and of EMI, from three
unaffiliated parties (the "Sellers") for 300,000 shares of restricted common
stock of the Company. At the April 30, 1998 closing, the Sellers received
50,000 shares of common stock, with another 150,000 shares of common stock
issued and retained by the Company. The 150,000 shares of common stock shall
vest to the Sellers, contingent on continued employment, commencing May 1, 1999,
and each May 1 thereafter, at a rate of 20% or 30,000 shares per year until
fully vested. The Sellers have been granted an additional 100,000 shares of
common stock in stock options. The option for the 100,000 shares of common
stock in the Company will vest over a five year period, commencing April 30,
1999 and expiring April 30, 2003. The options vest at a rate of 20% per year
and are exercisable at $3.34 per share. The acquisitions were accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the results of
operation of ERI and EMI will be combined and included in the Company's
consolidated financial statements from April 30, 1998. The assets acquired
totaled $263,151, including $167,000 in Membership Lists, $36,164 in net
Accounts Receivable, $26,164 in Inventory and $22,910 in furniture, fixtures and
equipment. Liabilities totaled $191,689 and are comprised primarily of Accounts
Payable, with no significant concentration. Net Assets acquired total
$71,462.The Membership List acquired is comprised of approximately 14,000
members who have purchased 5, 15, or 30 year memberships. The asset value
placed on the List will be amortized over a period between 5 and 10 years. The
purchase price is valued at $167,000, which represents the 50,000 shares of
stock of the Company paid at closing at a price of $3.34 per share. The 150,000
escrowed shares will be accounted for at the closing price of the stock at date
of delivery and recorded as additions to Membership Lists and Goodwill.
The Company is currently negotiating with two mortgage banking firms to
arrange long-term debt financing in the amount of $15,000,000 (the "Debt
Financing Loan"). If the Debt Financing Loan is obtained, the Company will use
the proceeds to retire its short-term debt and for working capital.
The Company is also negotiating with two mortgage banking firms to arrange
debt and
20
<PAGE>
construction financing in the amount of $15,000,000 (the "Construction Financing
Loan"). If the Construction Financing Loan is obtained, the Company intends to
use the net proceeds to commence operations as a home builder and to service
existing debt. The Company intends to use part of the unsecured potions of the
Maumelle Property to secure $10,000,000 of the loan, with the remaining
$5,000,000 to be secured by home construction. Such negotiations remain in the
initial stage and there is no assurance that the Company will able to obtain the
Construction Financing Loan on favorable terms or at all.
In addition, the Company is negotiating with a commercial bank and other
institutional investors to obtain a construction loan in the amount of
$18,000,000, to be secured by the Florida Bible College Property (the "Florida
Bible College Construction Loan"). The Florida Bible College Construction Loan
proceeds will be used to construct a 264 room hotel. The Florida Bible College
property was appraised by a third party MAI appraiser on December 5, 1997, at a
value of $4,570,000.
There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to
negotiate terms acceptable to the Company on any or all of these loans, or at
all.
In respect to prospective long-term liquidity, the Company intends to
generate the bulk of its cash from operations by building and selling homes
initially on the Maumelle Property, and from the acquisition, development and
subsequent operation of resort and vacation properties and the development and
sale of VOI units and LTL units. This assumes that the Company can obtain the
necessary financial resources to restructure or retire its present short-term
debt and raise sufficient capital to commence development operations and begin
substantial building operations and/or successfully negotiate the acquisition
and sale of leisure properties. There can be no assurances, however, that the
Company will be able to restructure or retire its short-term debt or obtain the
necessary capital, on favorable terms to the Company or at all, to commence
meaningful operations. Even if the Company is able to obtain the necessary
capital required to commence meaningful operations, there can be no assurance
the Company will be able to negotiate acceptable terms for the acquisition and
development of additional properties.
